Ejected from the Liberal end of The Swamp. Great endorsement as an independent.

While the gravesite had been investigated and identified by the army’s Unrecovered War Casualties unit, the federal government had refused to fund the excavation and repatriation because the men – despite several being ex-military and members of the Nauru Defence Force – were not serving military when murdered.

“They just seem to have fallen through the cracks, and no one seemed to be taking responsibility for them,” Dr Kelly said.

The only crack here is the one surrounds the arsehole that is the Australian Government.

Paris has many many bike paths but unlike Melbourne’s they are extremely well patronised.
I did see one silly old moo, wobbling around in the bus lane instead of the dedicated bike lane coming around the roundabout at Bastille, the bus driver about blew her out of the saddle.

rosie’s overseas journal notes have been marvellous. Like so many, I’ve been to lots of cities, but to travel solo would be a terrific experience. All the wheres, whens, hows are the choice of the solo traveller – no feelings of holding up the fellow traveller when you call into a shop, or you stand too long reading a plaque/gazing at a painting, et cetera.
I’ve enjoyed the details.

From what I can see plenty of support for Deeming.

So, there’s a bit of a to-do about Neo Nayzee Marching Boyz, who evidently sidestepped the most visciously prosecutorial police force in Australia, while winding up the Groomers. It’s hilarious.
All over Twitter, but it won’t last, due to its inherent inviability. The most well-groomed and badly-drilled mob of paramilitary bovver bruvvas I ever seen. Some of them even still had last night’s disco glo bracelets on while they sieg-heiled like something out of a poolside Busby Berkely film.

rickw: Re your query about Tintin (i.e. Snowy’s master, compadre of Captain Haddock, resident of Marlinspike Hall, and also one of the Five most famous Belgians).

AFAIK Tintin ain’t been wokefied. I’ve not kept up to date, but as my credentials I trot out that I’ve a copy of every Tintin story ever written, including a couple of obscure ones (but now somewhat readily avaiable) All Four movies (or is it Five movies?).

It is possible that some of Tintin’s language in the first couple of stories, could when translated into English, be…er…. translated a little more .. er… carefully.

Tintin is second only to the ducks of Carl Barks.
Tintin is thus above: Phantom, Batman, Prince Valiant, Rip Kirby, Phil Corrigan Secret Agent, & various others barely worthy of mention.

Though a special place in my heart (& book collection, I’ve got ’em all) goes to Australia’s own Middy Malone.

I gotta take my hat off to whoever put on that Grampian Nazzi show. They weren’t even trying to make it look like a fair dinkum return of the skinhead era.

Cosplayers standing on the steps of Parliament House (Vic) & giving a Roman Salute, in (sorta) unison.
Up, down, salute, down, salute again. You’d be forgiven for believing they were about to dance the Hokey-Pokey.
A bloke had a job to not crack up laughing. For years a Grampian Nazi has been harder to find than Harold Holt, then we get this, right in front of half the coppers in Melbourne & with the TV right there to bring them straight to every loungeroom in the nation.

About as credible as the Polish “invasion of the Third Reich” of 1st Sept 1939.

This is a good example how blue staters are killing red staters.
Moved to Austin, which is blue as they come. Who do you think he votes for after disclosing one of the reasons behind the move?

“By the time I get to bed it’s going to be close to a 24-hour day,” says Frank Croasdale of some of the crazier days he commutes to his physical-therapy practice in Redondo Beach, Calif., from his home in Austin, Texas.

He and his family moved to Austin in 2021 from Southern California, eager to live somewhere slightly less expensive and vulnerable to climate change, he says. But he didn’t want to give up his practice. He flies there two to three times a month to see patients, while administrating from home the rest of the time.

Fascism is the new black.

Tim Blair writes:

According to one focus group surveyed in 2020 by pollsters representing Dictator Dan’s Labor lockdowners, there was “strong support for Dan ­Andrews and a broad acknowledgement of the good job he and the Government are doing in very difficult circumstances”. Additionally, the survey found:

People have become less likely to freely offer support for Dan ­Andrews but if he is criticised by one person a bigger number stridently come to his defence.

Hello, ABC!

We can reasonably conclude that the Government and the ­primary spokesperson, Dan Andrews, still have credibility and the confidence of the people who will trust, support and follow the decisions that need to be taken.

Steve’s reaction:

Perhaps arrogantly, certainly foolishly, when the Covid panic began I imagined my objections to the sustained, unprecedented assault on our civil liberties reflected a sizeable proportion of mainstream opinion, bolstered by the Australian Human Rights Commission bravely speaking out in defence of our freedoms (sorry, needed a little joke there to lighten the mood).

But the Victorian polling has slapped the scales from my eyes …

The truly frightening, and profoundly depressing, thing is that even as the evidence accumulates to show the futility of lockdowns, curfews, social distancing, QR codes, contact tracing and other contrived mechanisms to “keep us safe”; even as the cost of shutting so many businesses, paying people to hide at home, building unnecessary quarantine facilities and ramping up brutal police tactics nears half a trillion dollars; even after enforced isolation shattered mental health, particularly among children who lost vital years of schooling and socialisation; yes, even after all this suffering, you know the politicians would do it again in a heartbeat, confident that many of us would vote them back in just as eagerly.

Yes, many of us would. In that sense, Covid removed more masks than our governments applied.

Liberal Opp Leader Pesutto is going to call for Deeming’s expulsion from the Liberals this week. I can’t believe how stupid and weak the Libs are; just trash.”

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why we call them the stupid effing Liberals, and why the Victorian Liberals and almost every other Liberal Party, state and federal, will remain in opposition, not just for years, but for decades. I reckon they’ll be lucky to ever win government again, quite frankly, they don’t deserve to ever win government again.

On waking up and hearing this news about Deeming, I can’t find the words to describe how angry I am. Our NSW Liberal state government isn’t much better and it’s why, this Saturday night, after defacing my lower house ballot and voting One Nation* in the upper house, I’m going to enjoy the Liberal carnage.

I struggle sometimes to manage my visceral loathing and contempt for the Liberal Party of Australia. It’s Monday morning and I wake up to hear this about Deeming. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

As I said on Saturday night and yesterday, I’m 100% sure the odd appearance of those elusive Grampian Nazis on Saturday was deliberate, very deliberate, it was staged. Even Mel Brooks couldn’t have come up with such a display.

As for Deeming, if expelled by Pesutto she should wear the expulsion badge with pride.

* Further to One Nation, if you saw Mark Latham on Outsiders yesterday, he summed up the state of the NSW Liberals very well when he said that under no circumstances would he ever work with Matt Kean whom he described as a cancer. And that is a perfect description of the Liberal Party of Australia, the whole party is a cancer that needs to be lacerated.

My first thoughts about those “Nazis” was that they were some genuine fringe boofheads hijacking the demmo because they were too dumb and lazy to mount their own. After seeing the footage, not so much.

BBC’s Great Expectations is ‘drivel’ say critics furious at new Dickens adaptation (19 Mar)

BBC’s new adaptation of Great Expectations adds foul language and anti-colonial messaging referencing the British Empire, causing condemnation from some viewers who accuse the show of being “drivel.”

Knight hopes his remake of the novel, which tells the story of orphan Pip’s rise from poverty to wealth, will make it more accessible to modern and younger audiences.

Rewriting Roald Dahl, R L Stine and now a woke version of Great Expectations. Ugh. Paging Winston Smith! You’re going to have lots of rewriting work to do in the future, so long as no wokerat rewrites you out of 1984.

Having just Goolaged Moira Deeming it seems that the news stories (resulting from what I must assume is transparent and unbiased Goolag algorithm) seems to be reporting the weekend’s Ladies’ rally as, interchangeably, anti-Trans and Neo-Nazi.

Including the Hun.

Knowing the predilection for ‘Narrative through Dishonesty’ that permeates the MSM I will assume this is a gross misrepresentation.

Weird thing is – the ‘Let Women Speak’ rally is deemed to be anti-trans because it challenges the trans agenda.

Why aren’t trans rallies deemed anti-woman because they oppose a women’s agenda?

Well, I suppose it is because there are so many women who have, at least in public, have abandoned womanhood and the gains they consider they made.

Why are so many biological women going along with the trans thing? Forget the gaslighting from the MSM and the utterly spineless political class. Why aren’t women be themselves individually alert to the erosion of their place in society? Already in sports and ‘women only’ spaces like gyms, but they can look forward to a bloke in skirt sitting on company boards as representing real women and handing out special benefits and prizes and explaining that some must be diverted to non-biological women, and women told that maybe some of their own rights must be curtailed to accommodate the chicks with dicks.

Or does the option of blaming patriarchy still mesmerise them?

Disney’s ‘The Little Mermaid’ Trailer Gets More than 1 Million Dislikes in One Week, Left Blames ‘MAGA Racists’ (18 Mar)

“The first full trailer for Disney’s live-action version of The Little Mermaid is proving to be massively unpopular, garnering more than 1 million “dislikes” on YouTube less than a week after its unveiling Sunday during the Oscars.

Set to debut in cinemas May 26, the live-action The Little Mermaid features an ethnically diverse cast, with actress Halle Bailey, who is black, in the title role and Melissa McCarthy, who is white, as Ursula, the sea witch.

The left is trying to blame Trump supporters for the trailer’s negative reception, claiming without evidence that “MAGA racists” have launched a “dislike” campaign against the movie.”

Wah, Trump is why we can’t make good movies any more!! Funny how that whenever Disney makes yet another woke movie the punters stay home and the wretched thing bombs.

Alvan Bragg & the Destruction of the United States

“If Donald Trump is arrested or even indicted by this personally motivated prosecutor in New York City, this is not just un-American for the ruling party to use police power to arrest its political rivals, the United States has fallen so far that there is no coming back. Ukraine routinely impressions political rivals because it is the most corrupt government in the world. The United States is no longer the beacon of liberty to the world – it is showing how corrupt the legal system has become. New York City is not the Big Apple, it is worse than the most corrupt legal system in any banana Republic. NYC has surpassed even Adolf Hitler’s most notorious court which had a 90% conviction rate. The Feds in NYC have exceeded 97%. Those that escape are by mistake or they mysteriously die.

Alvan Bragg, the vindictive Manhattan prosecutor trying to climb the ladder on the dead body of Donald Trump, actually came out and said like some tyrant: “We do not tolerate attempts to intimidate our office or threaten the rule of law in New York.” There is no Rule of Law in New York City. It is a complete joke and a fraud to even utter those words. What is next? Do they indict Trump for parking tickets for all his employees? Or perhaps he starts indicting people who bad-mouth NYC? This is the way these DAs rise to political power. They always look to charge someone famous and then run for political office.

Even Ramaswamy, the tech entrepreneur who recently declared his GOP candidacy, wrote on Twitter Saturday. “If a Republican prosecutor in 2004 had used a campaign finance technicality to arrest then-candidate John Kerry while Bush & Cheney were in power, liberals would have cried foul—and rightly so.” If anyone should have been criminally prosecuted it was Hillary for using a private email server to circumvent the Freedom of Information Act where people could have gotten her official emails and never knew about her private server. That impacted National Security – not hush money to a prostitute.

“This will mark a dark moment in American history and will undermine public trust in our electoral system itself,” Ramaswamy also wrote. “I call on the Manhattan District Attorney to reconsider this action and to put aside partisan politics in service of preserving our Constitutional republic.”

The Democrats have gone way too far. They have divided the United States and there is NOT going to be a return.”

[Harkening back to his prior employer, of course, raised the name of David Boies.]

Personally, while I’m fine with aggressive, I think we are in much worse shape if this goes public so seems to me we should look for someone who isn’t seeking the spotlight.

Can we discuss at some point soon to provide a suggestion or two?

Thanks.

Then there are the unprocessed foods.

The meat is hormonal and antibiotic, injected with dyes to simulate freshness, stitched together from scraps using glue to give the appearance of steak
Nope, you’ve lost me.

George and Harriet decided to celebrate their 25th Wedding Anniversary with a trip to Vegas. When they entered the hotel/casino and registered, a sweet young woman dressed in a very short skirt became very friendly. George brushed her off. Harriet objected “George, that young woman was nice, and you were so rude”. “Harriet, she’s a prostitute”. “I don’t believe you. That sweet young thing?” “Let’s go up to our room and I’ll prove it”.

In their room, George called down to the desk and asked for ‘Bambi’ to come to room 1217. “Now” he said “you hide in the bathroom with the door open just enough to hear us okay?”

Soon, there was a knock on the door. George opened it and Bambi walked in, swirling her hips provocatively. George asked “How much do you charge?” “$125 basic rate, $100 tips for special services”.

George was taken aback. “$125! I was thinking more in the range of $25”. Bambi laughed derisively. “You must really be a hick if you think you can buy sex for that price!” “Well” said George “I guess we can’t do business. Goodbye”.

After she left, Harriet came out of the bathroom. She said “I just can’t believe it!” George said “Let’s forget it. We’ll go have a drink, then eat dinner”.

At the bar, as they sipped their cocktails, Bambi came up behind George, pointed slyly at Harriet, and said “See what you get for $25!?

The left is trying to blame Trump supporters for the trailer’s negative reception, claiming without evidence that “MAGA racists” have launched a “dislike” campaign against the movie.”

Wah, Trump is why we can’t make good movies any more!! Funny how that whenever Disney makes yet another woke movie the punters stay home and the wretched thing bombs.

All that Marvel and Disney stuff has been going from stench to stench. Then there is the Netflix and Amazon gravitation to sludge.

One of the things they seriously don’t understand is that the audience brings their own ideas and conceptions with them.

The Rings of Power debacle has to be a holotype of sorts. All the people who grew up reading Lord of the Rings formed images of beings and events in their imaginations. Not necessarily photographic level images, but then the images evoked more than just shape and colour, but also character and history. It is a very rich and potent thing, and there is an emotional attachment.

Now, when I read LOTR (should it be LotR?) I understood as being a story from long past (like legends are) and very much English – Tolkien very deliberately sought to communicate that – with a bit of a Nordic or Germanic flavour. The roles and men and women (all species) were traditional roles, and I think most people also imagined it ‘white’ – like actual legends such as King Arthur or Robin Hood.

So when they do race-swapping or gender-swapping is jarring. Faced by a movie and my memory the movie loses out. And, indeed, that is what happened to Rings of Power. Add to that the stated aim of making these changes in order to be ‘diverse’ and ‘inclusive’ as political statements People were insulted by it – it had a bitter taste that people spat out.

So, having driven off the people they may have hoped to attract – Tolkien fans – they were left trying to muster up an audience of people who had shown no interest in Tolkien.

Most appalling, apart from creating all these girl-bosses showing up all the men every chance they could, was what they did to Galadriel. An immaculate being in LotR, ethereal, serene, compassionate and kind. I believe Tolkien had intended her to be a Mary-like presence. In RoP they made her a girl-boss. Aggressive, vengeful, callous, glib, able to be misled, and so on. They demoted her from a almost divine being to something small just so she could make men look weak and stupid.

Peter Jackson has said that he tried as best he could to stick to what Tolkien wrote and did not want to add anything. The showrunners for RoP said they wanted to write the story Tolkien didn’t. Well, Tolkien did not write shit, and those guys took that as their cue.

I am not really into super heroes but the same seems to have happened in comics-turned-movies genre. The fans of the comics have seen their heroes humiliated, diminished, and outright killed off to make way for women. One of the production heads had said that there goal was to have more female heroes than male, and they have delivered on that.

And the misses just keep on coming.

Steiner developed Biodynamic Agriculture, which is Trademarked, and has no philosophical or practical connection to any Organic Movement, apart from selling produce to Organic Wholesalers.

To the question of cost:
Biodynamic Certified food may only have 1/3 the yield of a conventional farm down the road, but the inputs are far greater
and the nutrient density is far greater, while the pollutants are far less.

So, absent a [man made] famine, what’s the point of eating rubbish just because it’s cheaper than Food?

As background – for some years now the NT has had the Banned Drinker Register in place. Briefly, if you’re a serial pisswreck who causes problems in public whilst pissed, or you have prior for flogging your missus whilst pissed you can’t buy stuff from bottle shops (although you can still go into pubs).

Initially this caused all sorts of drama, but then generally came to be accepted. You go into a bottlo or drive-through, and hand you ID over with your cash or card. Although there are ways around the system if you’re on The List (most notably, threatening your missus or younger cousin who aren’t on The List with a hiding if they don’t buy grog for you) it did have an effect on domestic violence amongst the indig.

Because you also have to – if asked – nominate where you’re going to drink said piss, in the central desert and Katherine they also have police auxiliaries out the front of most bottlos to ask these questions, tip the recently-bought piss out if the wrong answer’s given and generally deter the drunkest of the drunks from staggering up demanding service from skinny 19 year olds behind the jump.

In D-Town, there are too many outlets – which include corner stores – for this policy to work.

II.

Over the years, whenever cyclones or the like smack up remote communities the NT Government’s response is to evacuate them, and bring them to Darwin for ‘shelter’. Previously, hundreds upon hundreds of people have been housed at the Darwin Showgrounds, accompanied by dozens of social workers who demanded bigger big-screen TVs for them to watch and free buses to take them to and from the joint to ‘visit family’ until such time as their houses could be repaired for free and they could be bussed back home. For free.

This Wet, in December a tropical low flooded out Lajamanu and Kakarindji, two northern Walpiri-mob communities northwest of Tennant Creek and southwest of Katherine. In the time-honoured fashion, they were housed for free in D-Town – this time at the empty Centre for National Resilience, aka Howard Springs Workers’ Camp, aka DeaTh CaMp.

The free buses then drove these punters all over town – with their additional payments ($1000 per person, more if you have kids, on top of Centrelink) where in traditional fashion they all got shitfaced and punched on with other tribal groups from their home lands, as well as the local itinerants who they hated.

This has been going on since January. The latest trend has seen large groups of pisswrecks storming drive-throughs, and grabbing as much piss as they can from fridges before making their escape. They catch some, but by no means all. As a deterrent to capture, some of these pisswrecks have taken to carrying things like star pickets and tomahawks on their grab-and-run adventures.

All this was effectively pillowed by the Department of Handpatting here. ‘The poor people, all they wanted was rah rah, a series of isolated incidents, noble and gentle people under pressure’ aaaaaaand so on.

And then it happened.

The NT News:

A 19-year-old worker has been stabbed to death at a Darwin bottleshop.

St John Ambulance confirmed they attended the stabbing at the BWS Airport Tavern bottleshop about 9pm on Sunday night.

Despite the best efforts of paramedics they were unable to save the man’s life. The Major Crime Unit has arrested a 19-year-old man in relation to the death in Jingili.

About 9pm, police received reports a 19-year-old employee had been stabbed with a knife at a bottleshop on McMillans Rd, Jingili. Police believe the offender fled the scene in a vehicle.

NT Police and St John Ambulance attended and the victim was declared deceased upon arrival.

And the reason? It’s the usual:

He remains in police custody and is expected to be charged later today. Sources have told Sky News the man was stabbed after refusing a customer just as the shop was about to close.

Right now the Handpatting advisory staff will be spinning at 9000rpm, having flicked the turbo switch.

There is some word the crook was a regular customer at the Airport Hotel, which as you know is across the road and down a bit from a ‘bush camp’ established by people from Port Keats/Wadeye, and which has been established for ten years or more by people claiming to be escaping the violence between skin groups there.

It’s also on a main thoroughfare and is extremely busy from opening to closing.

I don’t know, however, whether ‘regular’ means he’d been going there for years (although the crook’s 19 as well), or whether ‘regular’ meant every day since December, or perhaps August last year when D-Town was flooded with Wadeye indig after 40-odd houses got burnt down and people were getting shot with crossbow bolts left right and centre, and who still haven’t gone home yet.

This might not be a tipping point for this ‘perpetual irritant*’ behaviour. But then again, it might be. Nobody blinks an eye when they kill each other. We’ll see if it suddenly matters now.

NAZIS CRASH WOMEN’S RALLY IN MELBOURNE – questions raised re police behaviour

A “Let Women Speak” rally was held in Melbourne on the weekend featuring visiting British women’s advocate Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull (also known as Posie Parker) as well as local women. This movement is concerned that biological men are undermining the integrity of women’s sport and spaces such as bathrooms.

AJA unreservedly condemns the Nazis who invaded the rally. These ugly thugs likely saw an opportunity to hijack the event for their own publicity.

There was some very odd policing. While the Victorian police held back the trans activists who arrived to disrupt the rally, they did not do the same to the Nazis. Rather they seemed to facilitate their entry to where the women’s rally was taking place on parliament steps. WATCH the video and form your own view.

This disruption caused the women’s rally to disperse early. Many are saying the police should have stopped the Nazis.

The Nazis were condemned by the women’s rally organisers – one contacted AJA in distress explaining what had happened. The “Let Women Speak” organisers had nothing to do with the Nazis.

It is shameful that some politicians and media are now trying to smear this women’s movement with the false accusation of involvement with Nazis.

AJA’s social media posts on the protest have been shared hundreds of times, including by prominent social media pages, reaching a significant audience. Our Twitter item has reached an audience of 200,000 and is still growing.

Multiple Members of Parliament have commented, thanking AJA for our stance on this issue.

– The Victorian Government will reportedly use the protest to pass laws banning the Nazi salute.

– The Vic Liberals has begun a process to expel Moira Deeming MP who attended and supported the
Let Women Speak rally

– The Blues Brothers from the classic movie knew how to treat Nazis.

I can’t post copies of the Tweets but there are tweets from David Limbrick, Catherine Cumming, Stassja Frey and others supporting what the AJA says.

Thank you to the AJA.

Despite what the resident Jew hater and pervert apologist says…

“Let Women Speak” organisers had and has nothing to do with the Nazis”

Keeping my ear to the ground, I am also now aware the crook drove into a car park next to the bottlo and walked in. This is common where the punter is already shitfaced and doesn’t want to navigate the drive-through.

He was refused service because he was pissed, and didn’t have shoes on. He went back to the car, came back with a knife and stabbed the bloke multiple times before pissing off.

Also, at another pub (the Beachy) a couple of hours earlier, security there knocked back three indig blokes from service because – again – they were shitfaced. For his troubles, the bloke was glassed.

So yeah. I’m blaming them.

Ah…such a blessed reprieve after ghastly weekend weather.

Yes. Yesterday we had a BBQ for ten old friends at our place. It was so hot and steamy that I put out some chip nibbles (trendy new French stuff made from peas) to complement arrival drinks and they went ‘sad’ in about five minutes flat. We then all watched as a high cloud of slow rolling sea fog appeared above the Sydney Heads, and crept across what was ten minutes before a yachting paradise with ferries, completely misting up the harbour in a whiteout. As it increased in intensity it then rolled over The Gap from the ocean and drifted down onto us. It cleared quite a bit later as the heat fought back at it, but by nighttime the fog horns were echoing across the harbour again.

I always wonder what the First Fleeters made of these Sydney summer variations as they settled into their new home by the Tank Stream.

And I would ALSO add that it would not surprise me one bit that one or more of the glass-smackers from the Beachfront Hotel, where they were refused service, were also involved in the murder at the Airport Hotel which is not all that far away.

Time will tell.

NAZIS CRASH WOMEN’S RALLY IN MELBOURNE – questions raised re police behaviour

It is a sad reflection on our main-stream media that this was NOT the headline they produced.

Shame upon shame upon the Liberal Party in Victoria for their cowardly and craven behaviour re Moira Deeming. This is the REAL ‘woman problem’ that the Liberal Party has.

I was thinking of giving the Liberals an undesereved vote place of number 2 as my only preference on Saturday in Wentworth, after my primary vote is given to the LDP candidate. It just might have helped save you from a Teal you stupid Liberals. However, after this behaviour in the name of Liberals (Vic, but it still matters), I won’t bother. I’ll only make one vote, for the LDP. Stew in your own juice, Liberals.

First, the appalling Matt Kean, and now the dissing of Moira Deeming. I deem you GONE, Liberals.

I’ve heard Darwin is a mean place.

One guy told me about walking home one night, an Aborigine bit him for smokes or money, he said:
F… off, you black c…!
kept walking, got stabbed thru the shoulder, passing motorist saw him lying next to the road, otherwise he woulda bled to death.

The other was Jimmy [Boongar] Edwards, an Aborigine with a Torres Straits mother who was Qld Welterweight champion in 1965.

He was throwing his considerable size around in Darwin in 1959 and got stabbed in the abdomen with a 5 prong barbed fishing spear.
In one side, out the other, without piercing any internal organs.

A colour revolution in Saudi Arabia’s future.

The Saudis are playing both sides.

Arab Leaders Offer Syria Billions In Aid, Sanctions Relief If Assad Pushes Back Against Iran (19 Mar)

Arab leaders are offering Syrian President Bashar al-Assad a deal that includes billions of dollars for reconstruction efforts and a pledge to lobby the west to lift sanctions in exchange for “[asking] Iran to stop expanding its footprint in the nation,” according to Arab and European officials that spoke with the Wall Street Journal.

Other conditions set by the leaders of the unnamed Arab nations include a pledge from Damascus to engage with opposition and rebel groups, accept Arab troops to “protect returning refugees,” and crack down on the captagon drug trade.

They’re keeping sweet with China to get Xi to buy Saudi crude rather than Iranian. But they still regard Iran as enemy number one, and are using China’s weird fetish for peacemaking to try to pry Assad away from the Iranians. Good luck with that.

Since communists have killed far more people than Nazis have, banning the communist clenched fist would also be appropriate.

They even had a Labour stooge on their ABcesswho ran this line. (from memory)

“The police directed the nazis towards the lady demonstrators as they share opinions and there would be less trouble than if they tried to manage 3 groups…”

The thing stinks on ice.
A normal, peaceful demonstration was not only targeted by the cocks in frocks it had the police herd Illinois nazis into their midst.

A real journalist might ask just where in Vicpols command structure that bit of bastardry emanated from, and why they still have a job.

And now for some comedy. Nature, red in tooth and claw (the Tele):

A bushwalker who tried to save a joey stuck in a fence has described the harrowing moment its mother launched a vicious attack on her.

Campbelltown woman Melanie Stubbs, 58, was hiking with a group in the Megalong Valley near Katoomba last December when they stumbled upon the joey stuck in a wire fence.

One member of the group decided to film the women as they tried to release the joey who was hanging upside down with it’s back leg caught in the fence.

The rescue was soon up-ended when the protective kangaroo mother became defensive and started exhibiting signs of an attack.

No, no, no no no. I’ve seen Skippy. They’re lovely, not at all aggro creatures that will disembowel you if they see you as a threat.

It [the roo] turns around, jumping further away into the clearing before turning back and charging at speed at the group. “Watch out Mel,” a bushwalker yells.

The kangaroo crouched down against the fence growling and grunting in anger as Ms Stubbs slipped backwards in shock.

“She came under the fence and reared up with her claws spread,” she told 9News. “The next thing I remember was I turned over onto my tummy and I was trying to crawl away and I’m yelling, ‘Help me’.

“And she was pounding on my back. It was awful.”

‘What’s that, Skip? The smugglers are getting away? We have to stop them!’

One of her friends tried to fight off the kangaroo with a hiking pole but the kangaroo had already sliced her leg with it’s claws.

“I went to get up and then I noticed my calf muscles hanging off my leg,” she said.

Serves you right, you stupid woman.

As I commented yesterday, either Vicstasi are cool with Nazis, or they were under orders from Talidan to let them move close to the women’s protest, so that Talidan’s tame j’ismists would provide a suitably defamatory story to give the Dick ‘Eds and m0ntifas of this world their political orgasms.

Or, having looked at the images of the “Nazis”, perhaps I should embrace the power of “and”.
