Progress. Energy required to manipulate yet more energy into something to sell. The world revolves around the notion of buying and selling bits of planet. What other outcome can there be!

There will be an interesting staff meeting at dating site Bumble in the New Year. Sharon Stone has popped up on Twitter to say she has been blocked from the site because there were complaints that her account was obviously fake. It was not fake, it was her.

Revisit that criteria:- Existing only 71 years and already all roads lead to Israel -unprecedented power? - Absolutely!

Every country in the world is subservient to Israel - (especially the United States) - Israel bows to no country not even the United Nations!

Top of that list should be Israel. (IMHO)

Israel (Worlds most powerful nation) primarily targeted Syria’s air defense in 2019 not Iran:- https://www.veteranstoday.com/2019/1...2019-not-iran/ - and lied about it?

Why? Because they can! and that's "REAL" power! IMHO.

With friends in both Sydney and Adelaide (the latter having had to evacuate their home twice in December), admit to feeling sorry for those affected by the bushfires. Having worked in Australia on occasion since the late 1970's, feel that these fires must rate as the most extreme that I can recall. Much worse than Ash Wednesday in Victoria back in 1983 (and Black Saturday in 2009).

Somehow, Scotty, I don't think they're feeling the love. I think that they are asking for some signs of leadership and Government action (not hand-shakes and photo ops by the PM):

He should of come straight back from that holiday BUT you have two extremes....

You have Jacinda on one side who's going to run around actively looking for photo ops with hugs and hijabs. Everybody is different and im afraid that type of carry on doesnt wash with me (im sure it does with others). She doesnt know those people and will probably never communicate with them again after the photo op. To me its all just too disengenous to take seriously but people still do.

The one of morrison with the firefighter is telling..... theres a time to go actively looking for a photo op and getting embarrassed when someone doesnt shake your hand and there a time to look like you are out on the ground doing something to atleast look like your helping fix the issues. Scott is not Jacinda.... she might get away with that bullshit but he cant.

In both cases neither Jacinda or Scott are seeing the real picture imo. They are just looking for a political opportunity to gain mileage.

Leadership in the west is seriously lacking atm imo across the board. I feel Trump is still the only one that actually gets it.



I have also seen comments about the greens type's in australia actively stopping fire burn backs. That to me is something that needs to be exposed by the MSM but of course they have the opposite narrative to push so thats probably not going to happen. The aboriginals have known about fire burn backs since adam was a boy. Many people in Australia are actively linking up with aboriginal elders to get their experience in fire burn backs and why they do it. (I dont even think they need that as its blatantly obvious fire burn backs work if its done at the right time before things get out of control and under the right conditions).

People acting like bushfires are a new thing or the "biggest ever" are the neanderthals of human evolution we can look at our own glaciers here in NZ and see major bush fires raging in australia going back as far as we like. These current bush fires are nothing new. We just have more people and the internet to spread the propaganda further now.

Yes bushfires have been around forever, the issue is that there are houses, towns and lots of people in the way now.

Only three days into the New Year, and two assassinations already:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...an-us-tensions

https://sputniknews.com/us/202001031...assassination/

Some-one is definitely going to pay for that.

But despite the news, selected stocks on the US share market responded positively. Oil prices spiked slightly, and US defence company stocks rose as well, so all is not lost:

He got what he deserved end of story.

Yeah, the fact that the season during which the controlled burns were normally done was nearly non- existent due to drought had no bearing on anything? The politicians know this but they lie, and the gullible believe them.

Internet headline this morning that Queenie is angrier with Harry than she is with Andrew. No doubt just another piece of clickbait (which I couldn't resist) as nowhere in the article did it say that at all. It was an opinion from the notorious "inside source" who said Lizzie would be angrier... Funny how "is" is actually "would be" ; and not a quote straight from the horses mouth (although who knows).

Got me thinking though - if it were genuinely true then how STUPID could that be! Ooh, let's see (a) young royal quickly losing any rank he had in The Firm standing up for himself or
(b) old fogey embroiled in an horrific train wreck sex scandal of epic proportions.
Golly, I wonder who is more deserving of Her Maj's anger - the spare (no longer required heir) grand son or the favourite son.....

It was an opinion from the notorious "inside source"

Another one they use is "sources close to the royal family" by which we are meant to assume they mean friends of the royals, but it actually refers to the journos themselves.

In days of yore this was referred to as journalists interviewing their typewriter.
