Roger he has been diagnosed, a muzzie, doing what they are told to do in the koran.
E38 or 49 …. pray its the E49, in burnt orange..
Giving him 100 votes was dreamtime.
Realistically he might struggle to pull twenty.
I’m disappointed, Grigory.
I thought you were going to say he was a Spook.
Who was poisoned.
Most likely…
Now there’s a payment that needs sanctions.
It’s a 265, 4 speed.
It’s actually an XL designation. I just decided to upgrade to the webers because I could.
Has black vinyl interior and silver paint (original colour) ?
No Eddles, they were as boring as f*ck. We finally agree for once.
Grohl trying to spin a post knackvana career after the untimely flamer and spook induced death of the Cobain. As for the latter’s widow, the less said the better. She was no HBOT.
The reason Government/BigPharma lied about the vax takeup becomes apparent.
When all the dead are triple and quadruple vaxxed it doesn’t stand out, since everyone is vaxxed, right?
But if they told the truth, then there’s no way every victim being dead and multiple vaxxed could be a random distribution.
Gonzalo Lire?
A joke name, surely.
Like Biggus Dickus.
Yep. One of them.
The dead drummer was a Flamer as well as being a CovidVax Stat?
What are the odds?
He gives retards a bad name. Now I’m disabled I can say that without any worries.
Eddles, the Watts was the ripe ol’ age of 80 when he shuffled off this mortal coil. If he was still indulging in various illicit pharmaceuticals by then, well, quite frankly, good on him.
Sheesh.
What do you think local record companies and promoters are for?
The more I heard of her, the more I understood why Kurt put the shotty under his chin and redecorated the lounge.
You coulda always said it, Bear.

I used to own an E55 VJ.

Sold it because of getting married or something.

Yeah, but he hadn’t been sick and was still wokkin’.
I’m tinkin’ the Vax hastened his demise considerably.

Stay in a posh hotel. The top level prostitutes and drug dealers will find you.
Where there is a market, there is a supplier. It’s always been this way. Since day dot.
Re American culture, I agree the miasma of cultural marxism (brought there from the Frankfurt school) hasn’t infected every American even though it drives Hollywood and their and our meja. It’s probably a sizably minority. The reason I say this is they still had to cheat big time to plant the old grub in the White House.

Well done that Cat.
It’s interesting and pleasing that in spite of every obstacle being thrown in his way, Trump was able to hugely improve the lives of ordinary people by cutting taxes and immigration. What he wasn’t able to do was drain the swamp.
good analysis
I do what I can 🙂
I also advocate for nuclear power!
Hell, I would love to see research into scaled down thorium reactors that could power cars/trucks.

Difficult to disagree with that broad sentiment.

They’ve lost around 6% of their total tank fleet. And 6% of all their armour. Total fleet, not just out of the ones deployed.
In a month.
In every video of their soldiers, including the ones they themselves put out, they appear completely clueless about basic infantry tactics such as obs crossings or building entrances, vehicle debussing or muzzle awareness.
They seem to move on the battlefield with zero urgency or awareness and without the ability to relay information.
Over and over you see them doing dumb shit that would get an Australian soldier in training’s arse kicked and told “You’re fucking dead”.
What I’ve seen is leading me to scratch my balls and wonder if everything we were taught in training was bullshit and in real combat there are a whole different set of rules, so much so that I had to ask actual combat veterans what the fuck is this?
Maybe their real soldiers are doing the work without putting out vids.
Or maybe when they have to actually clear an urban area house by house they are going to get creamed.
That both halves of our current UniParty were heavily into funnelling massive amounts of OUR money to the Clinton’s also goes a long way to explaining why they are currently carrying us into The Ukraine War To Hide The Swamp Creatures’ Blood Money Laundry.

Been having a look around UAP and One Nation to see what info on Covid they have up.
Not too much on UAP main web page. Craig Kelly Twitter feed has plenty of good links and Clive Palmer UAP page also. Found a guy called Nick Holt on Substack who has interesting articles on one of the Aussie signatories to Lancet letter, Aussie WHO team member to Wuhan and treatment of pregnant staff by Gold Coast Health (disgusting).
Best coverage is on Malcolm Roberts web page which has video coverage of a recent cross party hearing into Covid. Witnesses included Pierre Kory, Tess Lawrie, Peter McCullough, David Flint and others. Never heard of him before but Dr Phillip Altman’s evidence was very informative and a good summary.
Some of the witnesses are from the Covid Medical Network. Good quote from Dr Robert Brennan about sign on Canadian truck – “The Canadian truckers are doing what the Dr’s didnt”. He talks about Dr’s not speaking out. Dr Brennan has been outspoken in claiming that lockdowns are more harmful than helpful, and campaigned against mandating the COVID vaccine. As a consequence of this stance, he has since lost his registration to practice medicine and been deemed a “danger to public health and safety” by the regulator. Mentions the ship Diamond Princess in Yokohama. 3711 on board, mainly elderly. Deaths were 14 over next 10 weeks. Makes the point that many hospitals were almost empty when we were being told overworked. I know that to be true. Impressive and again never heard of him before. The kind of Dr we need.
Naturally you wont see any of those Dr’s mentioned in mainstream Australian media.
Yep.
Watching the Advance Guard of a Russkie armoured regiment get splattered on the entry into a Ukrainian village, then the following Squadron get boxed in, the head and tail vehicles knocked out and the rest somehow barely managing to retreat in utter disorder ruined it for me.
Plus random Chocko-equivalents with RPGs casually wandering out from between buildings in nominally Russian-controlled and occupied areas, potting individual trucks and AFVs. And doing it unnoticed, unchallenged and without feeling a single need to be tactical about their actions.
Hell, the Iraqis, Syrians, Chechens, Afghans and even the various flavours of rebel, bandit and brigand from the Philippines to West Africa know that to engage their own people (let alone any US/Russian/Chinese/Etc. advisors and support troops) they can only do it by infiltration and ambush. And being extremely careful at all levels in their organisation, communication and movement.
And yet, here is the most powerful single-nation terrestrial army in Europe shrugging its shoulders as its MSRs and logistics trains are shredded or fall apart of their own volition. Often at the hands of people who do not feel afraid to be seen pulling the trigger or absconding in open daylight with ‘Z’-marked trucks and heavy equipment.
Well within “acceptable losses” I would have thought.

I believe you could both expand on your comments to the understanding of other readers betterment.

The Russians might actually be winning, despite what the media wish to betray….
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/03/de-militarization-ukraine-continues/
Counterpoint, from The Daily Beast and apropos of Mr Lira:
Highlights:
And:
On his up-to-a-month-ago job:
Of course you can date a woman in her thirties. That’s just silly.
On his Ukrainian commentary, I don’t know – and more to the point, nobody else does who isn’t actually there. There’s been so much mayonnaise and flat-out bullshit spread on the Net from both sides that it’s now impossible to make any dispassionate assessment.
I’m with you.
And so, apologies to every Cat who considers that the Russian Army truly is sweeping all before it because it is superior to everything arrayed against it in every way.
The footage and stills I’ve seen of what screams to me of incompetence, lack of training or indiscipline under fire leaves me wondering if the only advantage the Russians have had to this point has been sheer overwhelming numbers at the point of contact.
The tank ambush video I referred to is a case in point. The footage I will reference is the Sky one here.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dcYOjbyttvM
This is the same Ukrainian Defence Ministry footage everyone else has, but I think it shows the wider picture a little better.
The initial advance into Skybyn seems to be well spread out, and convoy discipline is OK. Every convoy packet appears able to swarm and support each other if contact is made. You can see various fires and smoke columns on the outskirts as the convoy passes, suggesting to me that Skybyn has been fairly aggressively defended against previous convoy elements.
When the footage moves to the village of Skybyn itself, I see stalled and at least one potentially M[obility]-killed T-72 or T-90 MBTs pulled off the road and making efforts to either pull back or attempt to ascertain what they are up against. The apparent indecision is a concern to me- In a mobile ambush, the very last thing you do is stop in the ambush area. The mounted drills I remember focussed on getting own your vehicle and fellow callsigns out of the line of fire ASAP. If you needed to speed up and drive straight out of there, you did. If you had to herringbone (even left/right split of the vehicles down either side of your route of the march to get you off your prior axis of advance and allow you to keep moving or counter-ambush) or even turn into the ambush, debus your dismounts and start fighting through, then that was what you did. Under no circumstances if you trip an ambush, do you stay there. You get out, take stock of damage, casualties and ammo and set about coordinating a response.
And yet, here is a troop of 3 tanks, parked up on the edge of the road and then trying to turn around to rejoin the approaching convoy.
When the decision to attack and try to clear out the ambush or change direction to bypass Skybyn is made, there is no infantry support present- just MBTs and a pair of BTR-90s.
These appear to be in use as command post vehicles, and there is no sign of friendly dismounted infantry anywhere. No Western military worth its salt would risk entering a suspect built up area with just infantry or armour by themselves. Certainly not when advancing to contact as the Russians are here And even old Soviet doctrine and tactical wisdom made a point of having infantry with the tanks. Even if it meant piling them onto the engine decks and riding into battle that way.
Now, the video gets it wrong at 00:38- That smoke is not from fire- It would be black and with flames. T-72s and their derivatives tend to flare quite spectacularly when destroyed (as this footage from Syrian demonstrates), and the nature of their ammo storage beneath the turret ring tends to pop the turrets off. The crews are actually creating localised smokescreens by spraying diesel fuel onto the motors’ exhaust manifolds
At 00:40, we have a Squadron plus of the previously advancing Russian Armour now parked up inside what was the suspected ambush area, with everyone packed in tightly together, no weapon systems out or crews keeping watch. If you were watching a NATO formation in the same situation, A) They would not still be in the same village as when contact was first reported, B) They would be fairly dispersed and/or in the nearest open ground where their ability to see and move is not impeded and canalised by buildings or other terrain, and C) you would see their turret weapons pointed in 360 degrees around the parked vehicles to provide security and observation to the troops at the halt.
The first missile strikes from infiltrating Ukranian anti-tank teams now strike the leading and trailing vehicles, and particular efforts are made to hit the BTRs, the ambushers assuming the Squadron OC and 2IC or other vital command staff will be using them. The TOS-1A thermobaric rocket launcher gets one round off in the general direction of something, and the tanks rabble away to the North in an apparent state of general confusion. Fortunately leaving only one burning BTR and T-90 in their wake. At least from the drone and ground camera footage shown.
That cloud of black smoke just after the vehicle at the bottom of the screen gets hit, is one of the tankies crapping himself and flooring his throttle. The T-72 family’s motor is pretty smokey when powered up.
Been listening to Tess Lawrie via the Malcolm Roberts page.
Makes an interesting point regarding adverse reactions to Covid and Tetanus jabs. One argument why Covid vax gets so many adverse effects is because such a high number in a short time. However Laurie mentions Tetanus been in use since 1968 and had 15,000 adverse reactions according to WHO. Covid vax over 3m so far.
Wot KD said.
I can only comment on what I’ve seen…
Former Prime Minister Julia Gillard has confirmed she split up with her longtime boyfriend Tim Mathieson a year ago.
Ms Gillard was Australia’s first, and still only, female prime minister, and though they were not married, Mr Mathieson became known as the ‘First Bloke’ – a play on the American tradition of calling a president’s wife the ‘First Lady’.
Mr Mathieson had not been seen with Ms Gillard in quite some time, and had not even lived in the same city for more than a year.
Daily Mail
Excerpt from WSJ piece.
200 people per day with heart complaints or strokes from a population of around 100,000.
200 people per day for a year would be 70,000 cases and note that we will probably get another 3 boosters by this Christmas so this daily rate will stay elevated.
There won’t be any kind of a nation by the end of 2023.

Bob Moran again this morning. Described how my mother lived until the day she died. Meant never having to make a real decision ever. Pathetic. Just as well I had my aunt and uncle as someone to look up to.
Watching the news last night… Russkie attacking Lviv, “it’s at the end of a humanitarian corridor”, then footage of blowing up oil storage and military base… Both legitimate targets.
Footage of senile Joe, “Putin is a butcher”, next grab is footage of crowds yelling at Russkies in a few APCs, which turn around and diddibop away… If Russkies were butchers they would have opened fire on the crowd.

“[…]
Yet whereas conservatives at the time saw the market as the solution, Lasch often viewed it as a problem, capitalism being in symbiosis with radicalism. By encouraging instant gratification and the ephemeral, especially when it came to jobs, the market undermined the family, which he called “a haven in a heartless world”. The very things that radicals attacked — “the authoritarian family, repressive sexual morality, literary censorship, the work ethic, and other foundations of bourgeois order” — have already been “weakened or destroyed by advanced capitalism itself”.
[…]while not a practising Christian, understood the importance of religion, and that without it politics would inspire “the feeling of self-righteousness that is so commonly confused with religion”. It would bring all the negative hallmarks of faith, the fanaticism and intolerance, but none of the devotion, the selflessness, the agonising.
The trends that Lasch observed would only accelerate after 2001, following China’s entry into the World Trade Organisation, the further erosion of America’s manufacturing base, the collapse of its skilled working class, and the increasing radicalisation of elites who benefited from globalisation and came to identify with it.

Gabor, the temptation to take a “side” is always there – it’s human nature. Some have excellent reasons for doing so.
I have found the commentary here from both angles, or no angle at all, very useful. I simply don’t know enough to be partisan, apart from first principles.
In “our dams will never fill again” news.
Wet weather set to return for parts of QLD and NSW (Sky, 28 Mar)
I know March is usually wet but this is getting ridiculous. I had a look at the BoM forecast for Ncl and it has serious rain listed for every day this week. Urgh. And the poor people up the coast may be about to get another dose of floods. If only the state government had built the Tillegra Dam which was all set to go in 2010.
Over at DashCat, Shy Ted has a very interesting comment about psychopathy. Worth a look.
Indeed, calli. Get over there and read it.
Personally I think pandering, cheering and enabling other people’s daemons to make themselves look more companionate is more of a scourge today then damaged souls they claim to “care” about.
I hope the big guy isn’t so gullible if so I’ll take my chances the other bloke.
A key point Gonzalo Lira makes is that those Globalist Powers (with all that corruption of the Ukraine to hide that they did to empower & enrich themselves), need the world to believe the lie that the Russians are losing in order to sell the lie that the Russians resorted to Biochemical or Nuclear Attack, when it would be a False Flag by those, our, Western Traitors Within.
Constantly (from before it even started), pushing the line that the Russians bit off more than they could chew, is what is keeping the unnecessary fighting, destruction & killing going, by making Ukrainians (& their fooled supporters from around the world), believe that throwing more fighters into the war will defeat the Russians rather than simply kill more Ukrainians, and give The Evil their cover for a False Flag of Mass Slaughter.
Question for Monday morning, what exactly was and is the Biden family’s relationship with Ukraine? Why isn’t the MSM asking questions? Can someone please tell me how and why someone like Hunter Biden, the kiddie porn aficionado and crack addict, was able to get a seat on the board of the Ukraine’s Burisma Corporation and then pocket about USD $40,000 a month, despite knowing nada, zilch, nothing about oil and gas? Geez, where can I find such a gig?
And who thinks, along with me, that if Don Trump Jnr or Eric Trump had been involved in some similar dodgy business dealings in Ukraine, then everyday we’d be reading hysterical stories about their business adventures? But instead, because it’s the Biden family, there’s silence from the MSM about Corn Pop and Hunter’s ties to the corrupt Ukrainian oligarchs.
My questions above are just some I have about US involvement in Ukraine, particularly over the last eight years. I ask because no where in the corrupt MSM are journalists asking these and other pertinent questions. The MSM have buried the second impeachment, an impeachment ignited by President Trump’s reasonable concern over the Biden family’s ties to Ukraine, because it clearly doesn’t suit the narrative. The more you read about US tinkering in Ukraine, the more you understand Russian frustration and anger. Does asking such questions make me a Putin shill? Does asking such questions mean that I and others here, who may think the situation in Ukraine is rather complex and nuanced, are “pro-Russian” or “pro-invasion”. No.
I don’t condone the invasion. However I find it extraordinary that many who are against the Russian invasion of its next door neighbour supported Bush’s wars in the Middle East* and the disaster in Libya in 2011. As Peter Hitchens writes, he’s always been consistent, he was against the invasion of Afghanistan in 2002, he was against the invasion of Iraq in 2003 and he was against the US, France and UK’s disastrous meddling in Libya in 2011.
For the record, back in 2003 I regrettably supported the invasion of Iraq, because at the time I believed our government and I believed the MSM. I no longer believe either. Everyday we are fed misinformation and lies.
Regarding what is coming out of Ukraine, bear in mind the Russians have used dezinformatsiya and maskirovka for a long time.
Well, bespoke, you can tell a nutcase they’re a nutcase, but they won’t believe you. All you get is more projection.
Speaking to a bloke I know who runs a trucking business.
They’re selling off their older trucks & trailers and buying new sets but a reduced number. He said they just can’t find the full time drivers for the work available and have to cut back customers.
They run grain, fert and general freight, including deliveries to supermarkets.
Paying over $70 an hour for casual drivers and nobody wants the job.
Interesting, that one it took, ‘one of you’, so long to dig up this glaring bit of Pro-War Mongering, Leftist FemiNazi, Globalist Propaganda – oh and no link to the source of your ‘highlights’ –
Yep, typical Lefty in the Right manger, no actual counter argument to what the man in the Ukraine with Ukrainian children has been reporting from the spot with the benefit of his life experience of having lived around the world under all manner of Govts.
Ah but do a Julia Gillard and scream, “Misogyny!”.
Pathetic.

At what point does a farmer decide it isn’t worthwhile planting a crop?
If the fuel and fertiliser costs remove his profit margin, why would you bother?
Any farmers like to show us some workings of costs and prices?
Since the MSM has cast Ukraine as ‘the good guys’ there can be no bad story in having dealings with them.
Contrariwise, if they examined these dealings they might discover that Ukraine is not pure.
The Ukraine narrative and Biden’s mob stand together or fall together.
So, for what, a week or few they ignore & bury, bury & ignore, then all of a sudden, when everything he’s been describing keeps coming to be and just when The Criminal West are desperate for their False Flag to blame Russia for a gross atrocity and kick off WW3 proper, all the usual suspects, the Jab pushers & worse, suddenly come out with (desperate & feeble) attacks.
I really do hope readers have been studying the tactics of the propagandists here as it should help them recognise & so not fall for their BS in the future.
Salv, re that Landrover, we had five Landcruisers and that thing. Belonged to a bloke from Werribee who wanted to tag along. He carried an amazing amount of crap in and on it, it weighed around two tonne or more I think. Anyway he had put a P76 V8 in it, because with all the weight it was underpowered, then (all this was before the trip) he found it was revving too hard so he put Rover 90 diffs in it for a higher ratio, then he found he was breaking axles and put 90 tonne axles in it and then he came with us.
Somewhere not far north of the Archer River his rear diff went so he only had the front, that’s why he stopped at the Wenlock, he attached the winch cable to hi Landy and we winched him out, the problem was he somehow got the cable around one of his front brake lines and cut it so he blocked the line and had only three wheels braked. We left his lump of shit at the Wenlock and he and his mate squeezed in with the rest of us.
We collected his Landy on the way back and dragged him much of the way back to Cairns. There’s a lot of twisty downhill sections and with only two rear brakes and one front brake he had to go very slow down the hills, it was a long slow trip to Cairns. Never saw him again after that and don’t want to.

Galvanised products are going up 400% for instance. Doubling and tripling of input prices is common.
The old stock will move and then the new pricing structure will kick in by the end of this year.
If I grow canola the fert, fuel and chemical inputs stand at about $500 per hectare. The price for canola is around $900 a tonne and farmers hope to grow about 2.5 tonne a hectare on a good season, so that equates to $2200 return. Cut that yield in half for an average to poor season and you can see the problem once you throw the other business costs on top – Insurance, freight, maintenance, repayments, rates etc.
A return if $300-400 a hectare on a farm would barely put you into profit.

Quite so, I just can’t understand why people automatically assume that one country attacking another is doing it for no, or for frivolous reasons. Even despots have their checks, go too far, and you are finished is the go.
No dictator can rule without support, I shouldn’t even say this, and the support comes from people who assess the situation for themselves.
Think of Ceausescu,
Too much delving into the truth might lead back the the Big Guy*. Can’t have that. They are too heavily invested in getting him into the WH in the first place.

WAYYYY Back before it even became a Western MSM blip (that was then quickly buried), I shared posts about the Biden/Ukraine thing from ZeroHedge.
They did quite a lot of detailed reporting of it.
All the usual suspects here jumped on me and demanded everyone ignore it all because everyone had to ignore both ZeroHedge & me.
Any other time I mentioned any of it, again the usual suspects would jump on me, insanely screaming, “Red Shoes! Tunnels!” (something btw way that TailGunner & Annie brought into the mix here that the usual suspects, the known & confirmed proud liars, gleefully then nailed to me), and again driving all further public commentary away from the topic for fear of also being, ‘tossed into a tunnel of red shoes’.
Doesn’t work. I keep picturing the face of Andrews.

UK: Covid Becoming CHRONIC, like AIDS, and Will Take us Down
This is an important reminder of where we’re really at.
Remember when Covid Mandates got the whole world suddenly searching out & starting to see a “Big Picture” that the Mandate Pushers were painting that didn’t have have any room for most of ‘the little people’.
Suddenly the ‘little people’ of the world started to put aside all their differences and unite for the sake of humanity.
Then, BANG!
WW3!
Instead of people having to choose not to be bullied by their Pro-Jab family & loved ones they could all once again focus their anxieties on One Common, FAR AWAY, ‘Enemy’, ‘those Russians!’ … while once again being lined up to stand fully behind their own Enemies Within, who Are Out To Utterly Destroy Them.
As I said yesterday, I have no illusions about the USSR and what I find frightening is so many things we used to criticize it for eg meja in lockstep with the elite, no democratic accountability, violent suppression of dissent, losing your job for wrongthink- are prevalent in the west.
When I was there very briefly as a tourist, I was struck by the disdain cast on Christians by our tour guide. As in, “We allow them to keep their churches because it’s good for tourism.” This aimed at some old ladies on their knees praying in a side chapel to a magnificent cathedral (Church of the Saviour on Spilled Blood from memory).
I told him I was a Christian and I admired their faithfulness, and left it at that.
Similarly, in Estonia, our guide proudly told us that the country was atheist now because of the Soviets. Bewildering, because they hated the Soviets too.
All it confirmed to me is that there’s real power in Christianity, lasting transformative power. The opposition, even to the point of idiocy, just adds to the conviction.
Personal factcheck – TRUE … participating in this, and the next, liberation mission tore the blinkers off for me.
Soviet words like nomenklatura and apparatchik are so applicable in the west now.
You noticed it to.
I’ve only selected one of the countless examples here –
I had a Series 2A that was fond of breaking rear axles – obviously the designers knew it was a weak point, because you could stop, remove the axle without even taking the wheel off , put it in 4wd (ie FWD then) and keep driving, all in about 5 minutes.

I would classify those constantly looking for and taking offence as a sub-set of Moran’s cartoon.
It actually reminded me of an old two-panel Tandberg cartoon.
The first panel showed a man proudly and belligerently announcing “nobody’s going to tell me what to do!”
The second panel showed the same man shaking in fear and bewilderment saying “nobody’s going to tell me what to do!”
Im a fair way through RFKs book about Fauci atm, and he lays out the way the same ‘business model’ was used for AIDs and COVID: Use the media to create fear of a deadly disease – mass test for that disease in healthy people – label them sick on the basis of said fraudulent tests – put them on drugs that dont work and cause harm- capture the regulatory bodies and character assassinate ANYONE who questions the narrative…
All I want is to stay out of the war, for it to not escalate and end as soon as possible.
I’ve given up even trying to make sense of it or to attempt to find out the progress of it.
It’s all bullshit. RT, CNN, Lira, Pentagon briefings, I don’t believe ANY of it.

Dot, oil is heading to 150 bucks a barrel. That’s when it’s over. 🙂
Speaking of propaganda.
Here’s another, very Un-Christian ‘reason’ being thrown at you as to why, ‘you should not care for Russians’ –
Considering that Russians had well over 100 years of being brutally persecuted & slaughtered for their Christian faith, YET managed to keep it alive, it’s perfectly understandable why the faithful haven’t all gone flocking to the State supported ‘Club Buildings’ (as too bloody many treat their Churches), but simply keep practicing their Christian faith in spirit & deed amongst the human church as they have over all the time that it’s sustained them.
There are a lot of phonies out there and BJ is one of the bigger ones.

FlyingDuk et al:
I supported the Iraq invasion and still do. Not the occupation. As soon as Sadam’s palaces were taken, they should have been destroyed and the Coalition withdrawn.
Why?
WMD. “A Bomb is a Germ is a Chemical” was a term (I don’t remember the exact wording and searching for it returns bugger all) that was used in retaliation terms during the Cold war and was commonly used in the discussion of a Warsaw Pact invasion of Western Europe.
The use of any WMD was grounds for retaliation by an enemy using their own WMD.
Saddam used WMD against an internal enemy.
Now if either side in the Ukraine war use WMD, we have quite obviously walked ourselves into a “Bomb is a Germ is a Chemical” war.
Or is the term no longer applicable because shutup?
These are dodgy days indeed.

Russia also has the highest abortion rate in the world, and a very high divorce rate, other good indicators that Christianity is not as strong as one would like.
It also seems contradictory to say that people support Putin, Putin’s path is righteous, Putin is active Orthodox but the people stay out of churches because of the State (Putin).
Seems to me just another unsuppored claim of secret knowledge especially considering so many Russians nominally claim to be Orthodox.
No rosie. The inference as I see it is that Russians generally are patriotic, which doesn’t automatically equate to blind support for Putin.
Fauci? You should never mention that name because when you do he emerges from his velvet lined coffin.
Anthony Fauci Praises China For Research Into Covid Despite Accusations Of A Lab Leak (28 Mar)
I’ve used this link because the Express, where I saw the story this morning, has cutely changed the headline to a sanitized version and scrolled it off their main page. Sounds like the lefty editor has had a word in the sub-ed’s shell-like.
It seems someone who claims to be a practising Catholic has forgotten that the sacraments including the Eucharist is essential to the practice of Orthodox Christianity and so Orthodox cannot practice Christianity without priests, and churches, as they are in Catholicism, are sacred spaces.
I’ve only been in an orthodox church once, in Helsinki and tourists were only allowed in the first section. They took sacred space very seriously.
Seriously?

It doesn’t make any sense, especially considering that Orthodoxy claimed to be the faith of 81% of Russians, is a sacramental faith, and Easter turn outs (the absolute highlight of the orthodox calender) are much higher than average weekly. Distrust of the state doesn’t appear to be a significant factor which also suggests that claimed secret practice is exaggerated, the question of unwelcome by the state protestant sects aside.
Farmer Gez, re the truckies. It isn’t easy to get an MC licence (unless you’re from the subcontinent) it takes several years and many thousands of dollars. This driver shortage has been developing for quite a long time probably over the last seven years or more. The Vietnam generation of drivers have mainly retired and wages and conditions remained stagnant for years. Many younger men could get better pay and conditions elsewhere. Now most larger companies have excessively intrusive monitoring of drivers and make sure they get every minute out of your 12 or 14 hour day. Finally all that’s caught up with the industry and they are now offering quite attractive wages, not so much conditions but good money, but there’s not many qualified and experienced drivers out there to attract.

Nothing penetrates the propaganda machine.
I’ve heard more than a few of the trucking companies are regretting shafting the old blokes and hiring subcontinentals who don’t care about the equipment. Attempts to get the old blokes back haven’t worked.

Close the Australia Council down!
More than $10 million of taxpayer funds have been handed out in the latest round of government art grants – but questions have been raised about why “political activists masquerading as artists” are being handed so much cash.
The list of some of the eyebrow raising projects include a performance artist who ends up “getting naked and putting something up her butt” while “popping nangs” during performances and a filmmaker who includes splices of gay amateur pornography.
The cash splash of $10.7 million by the Australia Council for the Arts for both individual artists and groups was slammed by the Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) think tank.
It argues the Morrison Government is now funding “divisive identity politics” and should take the process out of the hands of “ideologically driven bureaucrats”.
Some of the grants from December and November 2021 include $33,236 to NSW multidisciplinary artist Abdul Abdullah who uses his platform “to defend his Muslim heritage by shining a light on the nationalistic, sometimes fascist, behaviours of sectors of Australian community”.
Another $50,000 went to NSW performance artist Harriet Gillies, whose projects include a piece called The Power of the Holy Spirit, an experimental performance lecture which will “end with Harriet getting naked and putting something up her butt (but, like, in a really arty and compelling way)”.
“Expect a TED-talk on acid, a performative lecture on mushrooms, storytelling while popping nangs, ” she says.
And yet another $19,000 went to a video artist called EO Gill, whose work “interrogates gender, class-politics and intimacy using self-reflexive documentary style”.
Past works include a video where “two figures tenderly explore old injuries and revisit memories of surgery, performing a bizarre ritual by drawing surgical markings on each other; excerpts of physical exams, gay amateur pornography and Nascar race crashes are spliced into the work”.
Director of IPA’s Foundations of Western Civilisation Program Dr Bella d’Abrera said she found it “astounding” that the council kept spending tens of thousands of taxpayer’s dollars to “artists who are completely obsessed with identity politics”.
“Taxpayers should not be paying for what is essentially political activism masquerading as the arts,” she said.
“This kind of spending will not end until the decision making is taken out of the hands of ideologically driven bureaucrats and put back into the hands of the Arts Minister.”
“Scott Morrison recently condemned identity politics for pitting Australians against each other, well his government is funding this divisive identity politics, he needs to act.”
Another $10,000 went to Sumugan Sivanesan from Germany who projects include a performance-lecture The Anticolonials where he invokes “the tropes of cannibalism to discuss recent ideas about race, settler – colonialism and contemporary necropolitics … The Anticolonials traces a thread of anti-colonial anti-politics through history and into the present”.
Federal Arts Minister Paul Fletcher said he had expressed his concerns previously to the Australia Council about some of the grants.
“This kind of juvenile left-wing political activism is not how Australian taxpayers’ money should be spent when it comes to arts funding,” he said.
“I expressed my concerns in writing to the Australia Council last month, and received assurance from the Council that it will address these concerns. “I will be watching to see that it does so.
=
“It is a well-established principle that arts funding decisions are made at arm’s length from ministers of the day.
“But the Australia Council needs to remember it is spending taxpayers’ money, and it needs to do that in a way that maintains community confidence in our system of arts funding.”
Expressed concerns- that’ll scare them
