Beijing’s double game: Why a missile frenzy in N Korea in 2022?/The crux of its nuclear problem
China Insights
For the CCP, it is a natural policy to support North Korea’s nuclear and missile development and to cooperate with the Kim regime in order to keep the U.S. in check.
If we look at the history of the CCP’s own development of nuclear weapons, it will shed light on its logic and values. The CCP doesn’t have the interests of China or the Chinese people at heart but rather its own separate interest. Its self-interest is to maintain its dominance and to promote its ideology to the world so that it can control the lives and future of more people on this planet. One of the major reasons why the Chinese Communist regime dares to challenge and even threaten the U.S. today is its possession of nuclear weapons.

“Possibly in your mind. What I was supporting is violence against anyone who supports this type of police action and the police themselves.”
Nope, not just “in my mind”. But good to know you don’t mind some kinds of violence, just depends on who’s doing the violence.
I am hoping for some violent insurrection as it’s clear that democracy is failing Australia. Some of our police forces are out of control, practicing violence against old weak citizens who have no way to protect themselves. You may be happy with the way police shot protestors in the back and beat them with batons after the police herded them onto the war memorial so they had an excuse to VIOLENTLY attack peaceful protestors.
Yes I have had enough, I refuse to cooperate with police now, and I will be cheering when the violent revolution starts.

Let’s look at things from Thorpey’s point of view.
She’s appointed a Senator, then she finds out that The Greens are funded by the CIA, she’s a Token, the Party’s run by backroom people who wouldn’t piss on an Aborigine if he was on fire, her staffers are the sort of people who wouldn’t give a dying man a drink of water … .
It all adds up.
Yes it does Ed. Thorpe isn’t there for ability. The penny will drop for her and then blame whitey and Teh Patriarchy for her demise.
Thorpey isn’t real bright.
LOL. No one has repealed Avogadro that I know of.
These press releases are rubbish.
Quite so.
6 or 7 years after she leaves parliament we’re not going to read about Lidia Thorpe graduating medicine.
I don’t recall the link recommending electronic voting in Australia. On the contrary it was suggested it would be expensive and have a limited impact on the multiple voting that the current system sees.

Now would be a great time for Djokovic to announce that he won’t be travelling to the Australian Open.

Currawong clientele at the Cafe have diminish recently. I’m still getting six or eight, but the Port Jackson fig trees are bearing humungous amounts of fruit. Which means Nature is competing severely with my menu.
In a month or so I should start to get some freshly minted kiddies arrive, with their parents. And maybe a very loud channel-billed cuckoo chick or two. They’re fun, but because of Cafe nosh the local currawongs breed earlier than when the channel-bills arrive from their migration, so they get in before the nest parasites can do their thing. My Cafe is altering the dead hand of Charles Darwin, at least for currawongs and channel-bills.
One currawong has been serenading me a lot, just outside my front door: “Chew a weak chop chewEEEEE!” always cracks me up. They have different songs in different places.

Nice to see the Media Watchdog take a chomp at Quentin Dumpster. Gone but not forgotten it seems.

Cane toads are breeding in Lake Macquarie. Is there a link between this and a certain TV resignation ?
Remain vigilant.
Linda Burney was preaching the tired old bullshit about Aborigines not being counted in the census until 1967 – Aborigines were listed with Flora and Fauna – Australians knew how many Merino sheep there were, but they didn’t know how many Aborigines there were. It is disgusting that she was never held to account for those remarks, made on the floor of Parliament.

I was swamped in Townsville as I had a sprinkler system for the garden, so in the dry season the toads would come from everywhere at precisely 6pm of an evening when the sprinkler came on. They’re quite intelligent, but don’t like flying. I would go outside of an evening and practice cricket throwing. Far as I could over the back fence into the scrub. After a few weeks they worked this out, and as soon as I’d emerge out the door they’d take off as fast as they could hop.

That would be tough. Studying something and doing it are often a different thing. Like reading High Court cases and finding out you’re driving the photocopier, paginating affidavits or doing discovery. I’m sure it’s the same elsewhere. You pick stuff as you go somehow.

I’ve got a bronze, brass and silver plate of St George riding a horse hanging on my office wall that came from Iran pre 1979. St George is depicted as being Persian. But then again, St George has been co-opted by many religions and ethnicities throughout history (Christians, Druze, some Muslims, the English, the Ukrainians and the Ethiopians in particular).
The dude was a Greek. But that doesn’t really matter. What matters is what he symbolised. The willingness to sacrifice yourself for your beliefs. Monotheistic faith. Allah Akbar in more modern days, the Crusaders in times past.
I can “sort of” see why Muslims might get a bit upset about English football fans showing up dressed as Crusaders. Just like I can see me being outraged if Muslims showed up at Wembley Stadium dressed as “Suicide Bombers”.
And before you start. Yes, it’s a bad analogy. Plenty of flaws in it (which will no doubt be pointed out).
However, my broader point is this. Extremism is a direct result of ignorance, manipulated by those seeking power from an uneducated public.
Interesting formulation, it sounds blacker than saying it is based on one great great grandparent.
Dettol. or Eucalyptus oil. Either one, mixed at 2 parts water to one part Dettol/Eucalyptus oil.
Tried Dettol in a trigger pack, squirted every one I saw, phew they can hop fast, you’ve gotta be pretty good to actually hit one.
Next day the house smelled like there’d been Dettol sprayed everywhere.
Switched to Eucalyptus oil, in an attempt to still be able to live there after I’d driven the toads out.
First night I got 40 litres of dead toads. (you pick ’em up by patrolling the next morning – you’d find at least half of the ones you kill, unless your place has lotsa shrubbery)
Second night, another forty litres – I seriously began to wonder if I’d be able to afford the Eucalyptus oil. (found the cheapest I could find in Woolies “medical” section, that eased the financial pain a bit)
By the fourth night the yield was only twenty litres a night.
By the end of the week it was ten litres a night, then dropped to five.
Suddenly I was prowling everywhere trying to find a toad or two in the whole night. I started lurking in the shadows near to a dripping garden tap, & switching on overhead spotlights (to attract bugs, & thus toads)
Was about a year before I saw another toad. Took ’em ages even after that to build up again to sufficient numbers for me to bother digging out the Eucalyptus oil & trigger pack to go after ’em again.
Not necessarily.
Both Great Great Grandparents may have been Aborigines, or not, we’re only going back to c. 1890s.
I didn’t want to actually kill the toads, just incentivize them to be elsewhere.
Tough buggers. But they hated flying, that was a very effective deterrent.
Useful tip: If you have functioning olfactory senses, do not walk casually around the outside of your house randomly squirting a gallon or so of Dettol all over the porch & garden.
Not if you’re intending to inhabit the joint.
“Suddenly I was prowling everywhere trying to find a toad or two in the whole night.”
Did you dream of toads too?

Cane Toads…
Been west for a spell, tell you they are everywhere west of the Mingela Range in NQ. Active again too but tad earlier than normal but the storm season is quite active this year.
Lost count of how many I squashed under rubber in the last week and half. On dry dirt roads too, this time of year evap rate is huge. I noticed the suns effects showering tonight, the tan on exposed skin I built up in a short time is amazing and I use sunblock.
Anyway back to the humid coast, nights inland are pleasant atm. Heard wind the top end/WA may get a cyclone spinning up soon so she’s on for the wet 2022/2023. One thing’s for certain, more cane toads…
My father just catches toads (yeah, you can grab ’em if you’re quick & in practice) puts ’em in a plastic or polythene bag in the deep freezer, leaves ’em there until they’re frozen to death.
Apparently the cold blooded things just sorta go to sleep in the cold & never notice anything amiss.

We may be doing the same, Bruce. No sign of channel-bills in our broods. We are now on our third batch of nestlings from in and around our Jacaranda, this particular batch being mothered by one of our first batch with grandma currawong (old mum, as we call her) helping out. Old mum is looking a trifle careworn these days, scaley legs and unsmooth feathers. The two of them, mother and daughter, seem to be running the same larder and we’ve seen grandma giving the fledgies food from it as well as the mum doing it. The young mum is very adventurous, would happily take food from my hand if I encouraged it. She seems to know me, comes at my voice, and sits on the railings with eager expectancy whenever I appear, enquiring for food with an edge of desperation, clearly feeling harassed by the insistent demands of two almost grown fledglings on the branches behind her setting up a din till they’re fed. The cycle of life in front of our eyes, with the big crow always a menacing presence cawing on the other side of the gully, ready to pounce at any sign of weakness; I fear for old mum now. There is no visible male tending this batch.
This area is full of currawongs, noisy miners, lorrikeets, cockatoos, kookas, honey eaters and occasional other species. The caroling of the numerous currawongs, sweet ringtones in the evening dusk, as the days lengthen and warm, echoes between the treetops to round down each day, heading towards high summer. The scents of spring have been overpowering, heat is promised but has not yet come.
Recipe for Disaster: Combining COVID-19 BA4/5 and Influenza mRNA
Recently both Pfizer and Moderna announced they were developing a combination injection utilizing mRNA coding for the BA4/BA5 Omicron subvariant and new mRNA coding for antigens contained in the influenza virus.[i]
Because the COVID-19 component is under Emergency Use Authorization, has failed animal data and no human studies, that component should be off the table from the start.
A recent paper from Chemaitelly and colleagues demonstrated in the Omicron era, COVID-19 boosters had unacceptably low protection against acquiring the infection and no valid study has ever demonstrated reductions in hospitalizations and deaths.[ii] To make matters worse, any theoretical benefit from a COVID-19 vaccine would last < 6 months, so additional shots would be out of phase with the other component of the combination product.
mRNA coding for influenza would be a new biological product not under EUA so should have to go through the full 5-year regulatory development cycle for genetic biologicals. It looks like the vaccine companies are trying the shortcut this development cycle by combining the non-emergency flu shot with the EUA COVID-19 vaccine.
Welsh wallies left looking like the z-grade welfare dependent incomprehensible imbeciles that they are.

We’ve just watched the final episode of Series 5 of The Crown. Strangely unsatisfying, it just cuts out with the Queen nostalgic at the loss of the Royal Yacht Britannia, Charles ‘full of ideas’ of how to change things, and Mahommed al-Fayed inviting Diana and the boys to stay on his Mediterranean yacht for the summer holidays. Dodi, a weakling in his father’s eyes, albeit like Charles a sensitive lad, needs a girl like Diana, we see Mahommed thinking. No good can come of it, as we know, and so the curtain draws.
The refusal of the Blair Labor government to fund the Royal Yacht was an act I would describe as “churlish” beyond belief. FWIW, we’ve toured the Royal Yacht….
“Praised by inbred imbeciles, plotted against by the CIA, unleashing ever new and imaginative ways to waste other peoples’ money and bringing sewage to south west Sydney where his beloved Veitmanese Balts would make their home in his former home.
