CEASEFIRE! The Ivan Molloy Story 

Publishers: AMAZON & Xlibris Books
 
This manuscript is based on the true story of my own and my contemporary Australian family’s experiences through wars and other conflicts; and the psychological, social, and political consequences we have suffered over generations. In 2014 as a former Australian academic and one-time aspiring politician, I fled to France. Battling with clinical depression, associated with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), I sought to escape the nightmare of a destroyed political career, and a shattered family life. I considered myself a victim of an unjust media smear campaign by my political opponents (Howard and Downer) to discredit my earlier research as a political scientist, and thereby derail my election campaign. During my research in the 1980s I revealed the murderous realities of Reagan-era US foreign policy in war zones in the Philippines and Central America. But branded as a ‘terrorist’ sympathiser and supporter of ‘Islamic terrorism’ in the southern Philippines by my opponents, my life was left in tatters.
   Coming to terms with my constant battle against the ‘black dog’ of depression, suicide was an option for me. But first, I decided to write a book about my research and experiences with revolutionary guerrilla groups in the Philippines. It was my way of attempting to combat the smear campaign that destroyed my professional and private life. But to do this I needed to find and retrace both me and my family’s earlier experiences with conflicts elsewhere which influenced me to choose such research. In so doing I discovered new realities about my psychological condition and how it has haunted my own extended family from generation to generation.
   Ultimately, I concluded I am merely a part of a brutal human ‘firing order’ phenomenon, a psychological condition that continually infects and shapes the next generations to come. I found I was neither alone, nor my condition uninfluenced. I have been just another link in a long chain of human events perpetrating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). With a greater understanding of my condition, I finally attempted to come to peace with the ‘black dog’.
   But what ultimately happened to me, this particular Australian psychological casualty of conflict? It all played out in Ouroux En Morvan, France.
