102-Year-Old WWII Veteran Who Saw Flag Raised at Iwo Jima Dies on Way to D-Day Event in France (6 Jun)
It’s a real shame that he didn’t make it to the commemoration.
Actually, the strategy is fascinating.
From the outside, it looks like the Coalition is finessing the initial ‘we will deliver Rolls Royce SMR’s located next to the switchyards of disused coal-fired power stations’ for a promise to properly consider nuclear generation for Australia.
I hope so anyway, because the nuclear technical scare campaign by ‘Trusted Experts’ against the loose ends of a poorly considered specific proposal will smother the issue.
Suddenly, in addition to the ALP, the Union movement and the Greens, the Coalition would be campaigning against CSIRO, the ABC, every State Government, academics dredged from every university – with external direct and indirect contributions from the IAEA, national nuclear regulators everywhere, and non-RR SMR proponents.
Paddling around in my own real life shallow puddle, I can see the ammunition being stacked up.
High stakes.
Dr Faustus, I attended a forum on Energy alternatives last weekend in Sydney. They had an impressive panel of nuclear scientists who were ready and able to explain the advantages of nuclear energy, the ease of substitution of reactors in previous coal fired infrastructure, and clear up any of the usual objections re safety and storage.
Lets admit it, those old coal power stations are going to take hundreds of millions of dollars to restore into land that can grow carrots or children. Why NOT use the facilities already there to grow volts and electrons.
DrF, Dutton could equaly respond with ALP GREENSCUM don’t want you to have reliable power at an affordable cost. Don’t vary from the message coz this where they try to wedge you. Don’t discuss, just tell the same story each and every time. Finishing with “is that too hard”. It makes the voters think the Liars and Greenscum aren’t up to it, which of course they’re not.

Wally, the painting of Tim Winton is reasonably accurate as that is how his head is. I knew him in the 80’s and I can assure you his head is all out the front not a lot in the back. As you say, a shitty painting. The green on his cheeks is to show his credentials.
GR: Hopefully this is going to be a front and centre issue – and part of a ‘You Can’t Afford (to live) Under Labor’ message.
The risk for Dutton et al, is that having to deal with the outpouring of scary, sciency nuclear tech details – trotted out by Experts – will derail and overwhelm the bigger debate. Particularly when the political responders are on loose ground and are not technically expert.
The safer way to go to exploit Australia’s widespread but still vague interest in nuclear power, would be to point to the catastrophic failure that is Bowen, pull the wings off the partisan and truly crap AEMO/CSIRO GenCost Report and call on an urgent, technically-informed debate on the contribution that nuclear energy can make – a Switkowski 2.0, with present day credible personnel.
Yeah, Bowen’s expert study he’s been using to say nuclear power is too expensive is by CSIRO, who are recipients of vast amounts of climate dosh for all the usual renewables rubbish.
I suspect if he got a similar report from their rivals ANSTO, or indeed from anyone independent, the numbers might be a tad different.

He has been happily giving a wink and a nod to the Pali ferals to shore up a few seats in Western Sydney. Suddenly, the polling tells him that isn’t playing well in Teal electorates with a strong Jewish contingent, nor among other racial groups in outer suburban electorates.

Dutton dumps 2030
Kick arse times ahead.
The disaffected Liberal base have voted in Teals, who are merely Liberal wets, and will not return as long as Dutton is running the show.
There are several problems with the Trumpification of the LNP.
First: the political system here does not have nearly as many natural gerrymanders favouring rural white voters, and the primacy of the neutral AEC prevents partisan gerrymanders. Ruling from a structural minority 2PP position is close to impossible.
Second, Trumpism was predicated on a clean out of office bearers to install true believers, not just purging squishy centrists but also removing old guard neoliberals. The Libs are trying to run the same playbook with legacy Chamber of Commerce types.
Third, the electorate has already been moving away from the two-party system, so leaning into that by abandoning what base you had left and chasing another one is very risky, as you could end up with no viable electoral identity at all. There are already a lot of Not-Labor parties to choose from, why would the satellite suburbanites choose your radioactive rubbish?
Fourth, Trump got away once with lying about his actual policy platform being traditional Reaganite trickle-down nonsense, but everyone with a brain sees through that now, and Australian voters can generally see through Dutton and his lack of any actual economic policies to help the voters who are supposed to be his new base. No, nukes don’t count. What else ya got?

The Lib base that has been spalling off to other homes, like PHON, SFF and the like have been the actual conservatives. We do not believe in the climate religion and will not vote for the Libs while they continue to push that lie.
The problem with you Monty is you are in such an incestuous echo chamber you can’t comprehend ordinary people who live in the real world.
In the real world m0ron, the all important swing voters vote against the parties they currently loath. For reasons mainly to do with their outlook for their wealth, future wealth and that of their family. Currently, the loathing for the ALP is growing- fast. Labor being hostage to the green/left / moslem coalition is pissing people off big time. It’s causing the COL crisis and much social upheaval in their views. Growing numbers are really worried about their future under the Liars. And they don’t like it one single bit. That’s enough to swing polls towards the LNP substantially.
Your long panicky diatribe above is further proof ; you and your deviant cabal are sh*tting yourselves because you know this will see an end to inept Albo and his destructive Labor Govt.

Finally, a schism in the Uniparty.
Interesting that around 60% of voters strongly support or at least moderately support noocular power as a potential option.
This has flipped totally since a similar poll in 2011. At that time, Fukushima, and the attendant Liars/Greens scare campaign was fresh in the minds of voters.
The trouble for the Liars is that they have been locked into anti-noocular power for two generations. They will not be able to pivot away from that.
Nuclear is Liar Left kryptonite. The Liars won’t touch it.

I’m trusting the term means the wives of medical doctors, rather than STEM PhD’s, otherwise I’m one of them. Non-STEM PhD’s don’t count as they never get to earn enough. It’s pretty inapplicable today though. Once, in the hierarchy of local suburban and rural life, the key social females of the town were the wives of the religious ministers, the doctors, the other professionals like chemists, solicitors, engineers and dentists, and headmasters, with a lower rung of auxiliary professionals like teacher and clerks and then shopkeepers and tradies. Below that, the great unwashed and misfits, which is where I came in. That’s how it was out Penrith way in my yoof anyway.
Now the term doctor’s wives really applies to the well-off wives of upper professionals and corporate executives congregated by property ownership into wealthy areas, wives who like their husbands tend to be university educated and into ‘woke’ cultural things like theatre, opera and charity luncheons, which they attend because they don’t work.

Dickless has dug hard into his box bag of cliches and cock-eyed dilettantism.
It merits a desultory response:
The teals are fashionable greens who will yell and mince when the lights go out.
Trump 2016 was not a product of gerrymander but state rights; that has mushroomed to include blacks and hispanics plus cost of living, border and crime issues which transcend gerry manders as possibly and hopefully californication will express.
Trump was thwarted from doing a clean-out by the extent and deceit of Barry’s swamp which has extended into the lawfare that is now sending millions of otherwise anti-Trumpers into his fold. The thing about the left is inevitably reality responds to their monstrously egoistic policies and thank heavens there are still enough normies to counter-act that, assuming the election cheating is not over-whelming by the dickless bastards.
Trump never lied about anything: he did more for the average folk than anyone before him; period; and I don’t mean what you get every month dickless.
The reason why there has been a movement away from the 2 parties differs for both sides: for the conservatives in the US, here and the UK, it’s because they have been gutless betrayers of their constituents: a truly conservative leader will bring back the disaffected. For the demorats and the liars it’s because they have not been radical enough which is why the demorats and the liars have gone down the rabbit hole after the disaffected radicals in their parties.
Now STFU dickless.
Reading Dave Sabben’s book “Mentions in Despatches: An Infantry Platoon in Viet Nam, June 1966 – June 1967.” Damnfine reading, indeed.
There’s a postscript on the issue of the gallantry awards for the Battle of Long Tan – the award of a D.S.O. was made to each of the C.O. 6RAR and CO 1ATF in each case, citing “personal command of the battle.”
The issue wasn’t closed until August, 2016……
In business, too, all projects close with ‘Praise and honors for non-participants’.
Military honours has always been a lotto. My mate knows of an SAS dude who should have been the first VC winner since Vietnam but being a straight shooter he sometimes superiors offside, I’m sure there are many more stories like his from previous conflicts.
Harry Smith, (Major D Company at Long Tan), was recommended for a DSO, however, due to his, ….., ahem, ….’frankness” during the battle, this was “downgraded” to a MC. He was a very solid leader.
This is a very good doco about Long Tan.
The beginning is a bit “cheesy”, but I guarantee you, it gets intense!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gUSq7pxux4
It has some re-enactments, but also interviews with quite a few men, (including Townsend – CO 6RAR, Sabben, Smith and Geoff Kendall, 10 Platoon Lieut) and also many original radio calls.
18 poor bastards died at Long Tan, (on the Australian side), 12 were conscripts. Many more Vietnamese were killed.
You have to ask don’t you, …….., why?
Looking back, what did Vietnam achieve for us?
Lest we Forget.
Rumour around Russel offices in the 80s and 90s had it that one battalion CO had his DSO delayed for a year as “punishment” for a less than stellar performance.
Brilliant book. Husband was a Nasho 1ARU,went to BCoy6RAR during Operation Bribie. Still close, says many deserved awards were withheld because of political cowardice. Nothing changes.

One of the many very, very stupid aspects of Dutton bringing Trumpism to Australia is that the reason the Republicans have been losing since 2016 is that Trump has had major swings against him in the suburbs of American cities.
And yet Dutton thinks Trumpism in Australia will not only deliver him more votes in the suburbs, but make them his new heartland?
If Labor thought up the best opposition leader to deliver them a decade of government, they could hardly dream up a better white ant.
2020 was stolen, that’s how the Filth won.
You’re sounding hysterical.

Meanwhile black and hispanic people are turning to Trump for 2024 in very large numbers, which has the Democrats terrified. The problem with elections being close enough to steal is to do that they have to be close enough.

The Teals are the doctors wives demographic who would have loved Lord Waffleworth at their book club. They could never bring themselves to vote Green.
The trouble with the damn Teals is that have captured a great many Liberal voters (especially women) who are too lazy to actually do serious reading or are soppy do-gooders.
Teals are the hand patters party.
Correct, Vicki.
Matt Kean reportedly toyed with joining Labor but, as Gray Connolly once suggested, probably found the NSW Labor Right too conservative for his tastes.
Also, he would want red carpe treatment.
Sorry, carpet.
I remember when we called those safe Liberal seats the ‘blue rinse set’.
Monty sounds scared.
He only gets this obsessive when he’s scared.
The stink of Joe Biden’s ‘Depends’ is not enough; he can deny it from here. The I think its the lengthening series of Wile E Coyotes hearing ‘Meep meep’ behind them since Trump announced his candidacy.
He sees his side have an Acme Atom Grenade and are preparing to pull the pin and throw it… in the family home.
So good, I had to transcribe it. From Jo Nova’s blog today:
“A World-Historical Transformation Is Taking Place in Britain, Yet Few Have Noticed”
“A world-historical societal transformation is taking place before our very eyes, and yet few have taken notice. Britain, the erstwhile leader of the Western world and the foundation and source of English-speaking civilization, is in its last days as a free society, and will soon become an Islamic state. Yet despite the mountains of evidence that this transformation is taking place, many will still deny that it is happening at all. They may not even admit it when it overtakes them personally.”

Americans are unfortunately quite clueless about British history. Where to start? Does Spencer even have a clue about English geography, and all these mayors he cites after London are in the Midlands? A historically deprived region most English avoid unless they are born there. Elsewhere England is often as white as the White Album, and they can forget the Midlands exists. I could go on and on pointing out problems with American commentary, and Brits like PG Watson angling for the yankee dollar. What about London? Does Spencer think New York is representative of the rest of America? Then why do he and other Americans assume London should represent England, or Paris represent France? Both were capital of global empires, more like Singapore as interchanges between the English hinterland and the wide world… The American narrative is myopic and useless. But I’ve been talking like this for years and no one is interested. So whatever.
PJ Watson. Can’t stand his videos. Check his history and take him with big grain of salt.
PS, sorry if my reply seems combative and strong Vicki. Just getting my tuppence worth opinion in there in response to Spencer. By all means carry on with what you believe. Debate. We need more debate.

It’s been good to see Old Ozzie back on Jo’s blog.
At the local branch level, political parties are like Rotary clubs, school P&Cs, local sports clubs, parish councils etc. There will sometimes be contests, but often they are so desperate for volunteers that anyone who puts up his or her hand for an executive position will be welcomed with open arms and elected unopposed. Unless you are up against practised branch-stackers, it’s frighteningly easy to take over a branch.

Peter Costello: Embattled Nine boss resigns days after shirt-fronting journalist at airportSean SmithThe Nightly
Sun, 9 June 2024 3:00P,M
Embattled Nine Entertainment chairman Peter Costello has resigned suddenly, two days after being involved in an airport altercation with a journalist.
The ASX-listed media group said on Sunday he had been succeeded by his deputy Catherine West.
His resignation came after a long meeting of the Nine Entertainment board on Friday night.
Video on Friday appeared to show Mr Costello pushing over a reporter from The Australian, Liam Mendes, at Sydney Airport as the latter peppered him with questions about the sexual harassment and bullying scandals dogging Nine.
Nine’s announcement of the resignation did not reference the fracas, which was filmed by Mr Mendes. However, it said “the board recognises action and accountability are required to maintain trust”.
I think he SHOULD have resigned – for such a pissweak strike. A good ‘coward’s punch’ might have led to some journalists remembering their manners.
Bit hard when your own company pioneered in yer face cameras.
A Current Affair has been doing it for years.
Costello is a coward and assaulting a journo is about his level.
Didn’t even have the balls to own up.
You get the feeling this is straw and the camels back. Anyone doubt if Nine was travelling better Cuddly could have ridden this out?
Looked like Costello had imbibed a couple in flight.
It must be a politician thing how these people can lie and believe nobody notices.
“Never touched him” pffft.
Berka, your hopes are the only thing mutley has been able to get up for quite a while now.
Enjoyed that link to hamasluvee tears over hostage holders getting killed during a rescue attempt.

Yeah, good riddance. The wider point is the palestinians are hamas. There is no difference. Nuke the lot.
There will be no peace until there is no movement… not a living thing left…
Trump has had major swings against him in the suburbs of American cities.
And biden is sentient. What other bullshit have you got dickless.
Seeing film of treasonous Bouffant Kerry at the Omaha ceremony lit a very short fuse for me.
Standing on the beach at Omaha, instills the same feeling as standing on the beach at Gallipoli – “Christallvooking mighty, how did ANYONE get off here?
Yeah, nah. Blacks and hispanics are fleeing from the Demorats and flocking to Trump. Trump is smashing Biden in Harlem of all places.
And I’m guessing that US Jews voting for the Demons will be reviewing their choice as well. Little wonder Biden is shitting in his depends.
So shorten Xavier filth is off to Paris? FMD. Grotesque troffing. Is there gonna be a bi election
It’s been 25 years since a politician has been given this gig.
Until Shorten is on the plane, I won’t believe it.
Surely not. After NDIS, the bastard should be cleaning toilets.
In Gaza.
“Xavier filth”
I resent that. Some of us are only moderately soiled.
Not much love for the IDF in the news services either. Presenter on Sky (presumably England) looked most affronted as she read the report. Even footage of poor Noa being abducted didn’t move her. Much Paliwooding at the hospital though. Sob.
Similar on BBC and CNN. It’s as if the IDF did something criminal. No speculation at all about exactly why hostages were being held behind a bevy of human shields, including children.
Fox goes where others fear to tread. For such a low proportion of population, Islamic representation and visible presence in Britain is breathtaking.
Meanwhile, BBC is running footage of this story as if the young dumdumbs are doing something positive and worthwhile. I wonder where they thought the spray paint originated? As well as most of their clothing.

Spouse and I wandered down to a local eat street near where we live in the coastal paradise former known as Steel City, shared a nice lunch and a bottle at a little eatery that is operated by a young chef couple and their friends.
The place was a favourite business haunt of ours back in media days, owned by old mates and legendary in its time in many circles for lunch drifting into dinner and occasional breakfasts.
The youngsters who have re-purposed the place into a casual beachside eatery are fascinated that old(ish) folks like us drop in to sample their fare, having had no idea of its origins.
Anyhoo, we eat and chat, enjoy the food over an hour or two, but today a young staff member of sub-continental extraction came over to clear up, and said the strangest thing.
He asked if he could give us free dessert (not our thing), because people like us give him hope. “How so?” we asked. “Because you always seem so happy, and yet you are old” (I am 68, spouse is 78 and beginning to falter a bit, but we are still pretty good),
He said he didn’t feel that way very often. Very sobering. We accepted his gift of ice-cream with thanks.
By the way, the dopes claimed the paint was biodegradable.
Think about that for a moment.

Bandt challenges Labor to sanction Benjamin Netanyahu’s ‘extreme war cabinet’
By tricia rivera
Greens leader Adam Bandt has challenged Labor to punish Israel’s “extreme war cabinet” and has told the pro-Palestine camp that the Albanese government is attempting to slander them.
After coming under fire this week from both Labor and the Opposition and threatening to sue Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus, Mr Bandt took to the stage at a Free Palestine rally in Melbourne to demand the Albanese government slap Benjamin Netanyahu’s government with sanctions, expel the Israeli ambassador, and cut a contract with weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems.
He also called on the Prime Minister to join South Africa’s case against Israel in the International Criminal Court, and ensure F-35 fighter jet parts are not used “in acts of aggression”.
“Our government could have recognised Palestine, our government could … in the last 35 weeks, have put sanctions on this extreme war cabinet of Benjamin Netanyahu that is now subject to court orders to stop genocide,” Mr Bandt told the hundreds of activists on Sunday afternoon.
“If you (the Albanese government) think there’s been some misrepresentation of your position … then turn up next week at a press conference and announce that the government will recognise Palestine.”
He said until Labor met their demands, people would continue to “peacefully and powerfully” hold them to account.
Who was it, who said the Greens movement was nothing more than Fascism, thinly disguised?
Is there a dashboard of hostages released or rescued and bodies retrieved?
How many do the Hamas demons still have?
According to the Oz, of 116 hostages still in Hamas claws, 40 of them have been declared dead.
This is the problem with any sort of credentialism on the Cat. Bruce posts his PhD certificate, then he comes out with this pathetic dumbarsery he read on Infowars as his own opinion. And has the arrogance to claim intellectual superiority! Yeah nah Bruce, you’re off your tree.
You lot have the RFK brain worms real bad, even with ivermectin pills stuffed up your orts.
Luckily you have no worthwhile credentials, thus boosting your incredibility score.
When are the next DNC talking points out?
Haha, Monty is jealous, envious and his balls shrank to pinheads when I posted that photo.
I am just saying what the community is saying. The black community. And the hispanic community. Numerous stories around.
Do read something other than CNN, it might expand your mind Monty. Although the added pressure might also explode your skull I suppose. On the other hand evidence suggests there’s plenty vacant space to cope with the added pressure.
Tim Scott is not “the black community” and Ted Cruz is not “the Hispanic community”, Bruce.
Why are Black voters backing Donald Trump in record numbers? (Al Jaz, 18 Mar)
US election: why Latino and Hispanic voters are shifting to Trump after a long history of supporting the Democrats (20 Mar)
A thirty second search. And from two impeccably lefty sites. Monty you are so ignorant it makes me laugh sometimes.
Btw RFK is one of yours, not ours. He’s a raving far lefty.
I presume that’s why the Left hate him so much, since he threatens to grab votes from them not from the Trump train.
Cassie, Monty is just the global anti-Western left’s local online parrot in Australia. The reason he is spending so much time trying to bullshit his political enemies is that, for the first time in years, the left is losing its grip on Europe, America and now Australia.
Monty is scared because, like all leftists, he is addicted to exerting power over normies and sees it slipping away.
It’s not just in Israel where the terrorist savages of Hamas are now losing their battle against the Jewish democracy as the fascist left screams for genocide.
The war against Israel is the left’s proxy for its war on Western civilisation and freedoms globally.
Being an armchair revolutionary is now very fashionable in the West and Jew hatred is its lazy fruit.
99% of Hamas’s armoury against Israel is the Western media’s anti-Jewish propaganda designed to create the illusion that Islamic terrorism has a chance in hell of defeating the Israeli Defence Force.
Using its vast reserves of Western idiots, the propaganda when it fails will inevitably shock the zombies who bought the illusion of Islamist victory as the IDF achieves its aim of dismantling Hamas as a fighting force by the end of this year.
After 1400 years of the fake religion of Islam, adulation for a false god can’t be erased overnight. But Jews know that. So do civilised Westerners.
Well well well.
There is hard to see why immigration should have a significant effect – either positive or negative. For a discussion in the Australian conext

Hard to think the population Ponzi is just lazy policy from government, Treasury and their developer maaates.
I’ve been posting comments here for some on this topic, including links to this report among others.
Due to the tax-benefit mix (including “free” education and healthcare and a pension upon retirement), every migrant is now a net drain on the British economy, unless they start a profitable business that creates rather than recycles wealth.
This means future UK governments – even Labour – will have to raise taxes to maintain the current level of services.
I suspect we’ve reached the same tipping point here.
PS
Don’t blame the migrants; blame the political caste.
Great analysis Tom. Thanks. You are spot on re the hatred of Israel being the left’s proxy war against the West including Australia.

And not only that the current PM is a Britain hating Indian. The former PM of Scotland, of Paki heritage decries the fact there are too many whites in Scotland. In the West there is a concerted attack on Western values because they are perceived to be white based. Despite non-whites leading the charge the main antagonists are left wing whites who hate themselves and their nation. These people would see their society destroyed so their self loathing can be absolved. They are the problem.
Whatever you think of Sunak (incompetent, aloof, etc.), he doesn’t belong in that rogue’s gallery. I don’t believe he’s ever indulged in Britain-hating rhetoric; in fact, he tried to criminalise such speech (unwisely, one could argue).
Actions speak louder than words Rog; and by that criteria he hates Britain.
Plus Leo Varadkar, ex PM of Ireland, was of Indian heritage.
Here’s a succinct summary of the difference between Israel and its enemies, and those enemies include not just Hamas but leftist scum across the West, including our own resident Nazi……
One group celebrates the kidnapping of Jewish men, women and children.
One group celebrates when those same kidnapped Jewish men, women and children are rescued.
In case you didn’t know, the left support the first group, a group that murders, rapes and kidnaps civilians. That’s the ‘lot’ our resident Nazi supports too.
I pray that the Bibas children will also be rescued too.
As usual, the body count is high and it’s nothing to do with civilians as human shields.
I wonder how many of these civilians cheered the great victory of Oct 7th.
Play silly games…
Damn shame one brave warrior paid the ultimate price, but a great boost to morale.

Something to think about:
THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
by Rudyard Kipling
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy — willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.
Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.
Against mediocrities like you. No wonder you identify with Vonshitzenpants.
The only ‘mediocrity’ here is you. And you identify with Nazis, real Nazis, such as VonBandt, VonSinwar and VonKhameneh. I guess it makes sense, to like Nazis you gotta be a Nazi!
I have noted your silence today about the IDF rescue of four Jews overnight from Hamas tunnels. What a disappointment to your narrative…four more living Jews.
Now f*ck off.

Monty is very encouraging in an arse-about way..
He tried a gotcha, then immediately trod on three rakes one after another because he has absolutely no idea, no understanding of reality and no situational awareness. Quite amusing.
If he is all the Left has to offer we can know they are remarkably incompetent. If it ever comes down to kinetics the right is going to go through the Left like poo through a goose.

The NDIS is an abomination that will swallow everything, living or dead, in its inexorable path.
How it gets shut down, short of mass executions, will remain a mystery.
Not a mystery, Rabz, the cost will just become too much for the economy or the people to bear and it will be destroyed. The question will be about how much of society will be destroyed along with it.
I’m not outraged, Rabz, I salute you. Job well done.

You aren’t allowed to ride a scooter over a Pride flag on a road but are allowed to put a Jesus crucifix in a jar of urine.
And if you smashed the jar, you would get in trouble for damaging ‘art’. But not if you throw paint on a priceless old masters painting.

Personally I think her story was full of hyperbole anyway, she would have used one of 2 routes in from Ipswich to Toronto at 800km and the Pacific Hwy is hardly remote, New England Hwy these days is not much different anymore.
Seems like most of those that were killed were terrorists engaged in a gun battle with the IDF.
And apparently the cool kids are claiming the rescue was actually carried out by US Delta force.
https://x.com/Fundji3/status/1799458669584662597?t=iOWYPzUXlqsXls8khKL5SQ&s=19
It is now officially called Operation Arnon.
Which is fitting. Vale Inspector Zamora.
With the Israeli track record of successful audacious missions, I don’t see any reason why the cool kids had to suggest they needed Delta Force to do it for them.
I’m sure Delta have pulled off some intrepid missions but the ones they are most well known for were failures (not all their fault).
Apart from Israeli prowess, it’s hard to believe the Americans would risk the fallout if the operation had failed.

The dominant narrative advanced by the pro-homicide media is that the 7th of October multiple massacres in Israel were the outcome of years of oppression and victimisation of Palestinians by the state of Israel, with the former ‘suffering in silence’ and expressing superhuman restraint until that date.
We here know that is demonstrably untrue, and that the 7th of October was merely part of a long established pattern, albeit an ultra-acute example.
Last year, 2023, there were 179 ‘critical terrorist attacks’ carried out – 27 inside Israel’s borders, where 37 civilians and 6 Israeli security force members were killed [‘Murdered’ seems applicable for the civilians]. (These figures exclude activity in the Gaza Strip).
The Meir Amit Terrorism and Intelligence Information Center has more information, the most interesting (though lacking detail) being the P.A. support for such violence – which the latter titles ‘non-violent popular resistance.’

We’ve just hosted a 21st birthday party at ours, the one for family and family friends, for my grandson from my first marriage. He’s now gone off to the party he’s having tonight with his uni friends and those from the band he plays in. We’ve had a lot to do with this grandchild’s upbringing as his father, my son, has been dealing with autism all of his life and his mother has ongoing schizophrenia, under control but leaving her still a little odd. Both came today and did him proud. We did them all proud too by desisting from political talk, for the lad is of the left (he’s at uni after all) and so are most of the rest of these younger generations.
It was great to have everyone together for his 21st with memories and photos exchanged from past times, I’ll get you a copy etc. We’ve finally cleared up now, taken down the ‘key to the door’ birthday decorations, after a largish afternoon feast including prawns, prosciutto rolls with French cheese, nuts and dips, macaroons, cup cakes and Belgian chocolate cake with Haargen-Das ice cream and 21 candles. Only the best for you, I tell him fondly and he hugs me as I lit the candles. He wasn’t too grown up to be pleased with himself when he blew all the candles out in one go, after a rousing chorus of happy birthday and three cheers.
Those coming by public transport, including the birthday boy, arrived over half an hour late due to a large demonstration of some sort in the CBD. Again. The usual Pallie suspects. This meant my sweet potato chips in the oven got marginally overdone, but otherwise all went well. Another milestone ticked. I’ll have to make a hundred and three to see my last grandchild turn twenty-one, so I’m grateful for what I get now.
Great job grandma! He will always remember his 21st.
Love it, Lizzie.

Hey, Bo Diddley!
Did anyone see old Bo Diddley when he toured Australia in 1973? I saw him at Macquarie Uni in a short afternoon concert. He was backed by a trio of Aussie musicians who were ‘The 69ers’. Bo was just great, with his red box shaped guitar. Charmed us kids, told jokes… He played us his ‘new song’ whose words were Yabba dabba dabba…doo, watch out I’m gonna bite you’. He said they wouldn’t let him call it Yabba dabba doo, insisted on ‘Bite yer’. He showed us importance of rhythm in rock. If you have that you’re on track.
There was no stage, we sat in a circle around him in the dining area, Student Union. I was less than 10 ft from Bo. Still a fave concert, and I saw LZ, Deep Purple etc. I liked Bo as much or more.

Who is Michael Mosley, why have I never heard of him, & why is he more interesting to the Cat chat than any number of topical issues?
Done a lot of TV, a pommy Norman Swan.
was … who was Michael Mosley?
he was a BBC presenter with a PhD in smug generation
Probably no more annoying than any other Pom you would meet in the Greek Islands this time of year.
A TV doctor.
I think he was at one point on a rough par with another TV doctor who used to wear a Peaky Blinders cap and talked a lot.
Oh hang on, that was a vet. Had the same timeslots though.

Michael Moseley.
Brit Nazi during WW2.
Surprised he lasted this long.
At only in his 60s? I think not.
I’ve often wondered if there’s a connection.
I see that Creepy Joe is continuing a long tradition, lifting slabs from a speech Reagan made at an earlier D-Day commemoration.
The tradition also has spread into the wider lefturd mob in the US.
Eleven mm of rain, over the weekend in the Western Australian Wheatbelt, it adds up to 25mm over the past month, so it’s all worth having!
It’s evens.
Certainly need rain here.
8mm in the next two days should get the crops out of the ground. They sprouted on the last 11mm but are struggling to get to the surface.
err, JC, that would be Oswald “Ozzee” Moseley

Yeah, I know, but thanks for the correction, Rabz.
It probably doesn’t mean much, but his wiki doesn’t carry much of a family history.
Michael Moseley was unrelated to Oswald Mosley.
Sad. I liked him and his programmes.
Given he died suddenly, the real question about Michael Moseley is … was he vaccinated?

I’m still struggling with a conversation I had with a Melbourne couple tonight. Emphasising that they didn’t vote for Chairman Dan, they still had six injections to travel. And still feared Covid.
Amazed that we had never had the stupid virus. Oh, you must have been a-symptomatic. No shit Sherlock.
How do you reason with such people?
You don’t, Calli. I have tried many times. A friend’s specialist even , amazingly, told her not to have a booster to travel OS. She is still going to have one! Why? Because she thinks it will prevent her getting Covid!
You cannot reason with them, Calli.
But you must try, because reason is the only answer to their self deception.
Bureaucratic red tape may have helped bring about a ceasefire in the toilet-inspired culture war inside the Western Australian Cricket Association.
More than nine months after the news that urinals would not be included in the redevelopment of the historic cricket ground’s northern side sparked an outcry from the membership and brought board-level tensions to the fore, urinals have been reinstated to the plans.
While WA Cricket interim chief executive Justin Michael said the change was a direct response to member feedback, The Australian understands the amendment followed a complication with the state’s liquor licensing requirements.
Under the original plan, toilet facilities within the new section of the ground would have featured only stalls, as well as a common mixed gender wash area with sinks and mirrors.
It is understood the organisation had received advice that the layout would not comply with liquor licensing, solidifying the case for the design overhaul.

I see Macron has called for an election in France. Something has gone pear shaped for him.
Many thanks to the Cat who posted the documentary of Balaclava.

Making my way through this incredible podcast on AI and its future. I’ve always maintained the US has the dumbest and smartest people in the world. I was wrong. the smartest are even smarter than I believed possible.
These guys are talking about AI’s evolution, and in a way that I had never thought of before. They’re talking about AI in terms of electricity input, such as mega watts, gigawatts and by 2030, terawatts. It’s another way of seeing energy (electricity) converted to intelligence.
The podcast is about 4 1/2 hours long though and hugely geeky.
https://www.dwarkeshpatel.com/p/leopold-aschenbrenner
A couple of early takeouts.
My take, and it’s just a guess, is that if AI demands multiples of energy consumption, at least for China, coal will be part of the mix and possibly the most important factor. This gives rise to the likelihood that coal demand will increase. Thinking about coal stocks 🙂
And the retards in Canberra think data centres in Australia can be powered by putting a few solar panels on the roof.
Yep, and dividends. Some very juicy coal ones here. It’s also why I like uranium and copper.All that new electricity has to be made and then delivered somewhere.
Remember when you laughed about the miners?
Re the doc in Greece.
I’ve never been, is there an oven type effect going on there?
I ask as I’m reminded of a hike I did on Hawaii’s big island.
It was only in the low 30’s centigrade, but people started to get wobbly because of the volcanic rock baking you.
Could the same thing happened to the good doctor?
Bern
This is an interesting point the dude is making. The national security apparatus is currently seeing AI as mildly useful. By about 2028, it won’t be seen as just useful, not just integral but hugely necessary. To power that level of AI will require huge amounts of energy. Does the security apparatus take energy away from the consumer? That doesn’t mean just blackouts on certain days? It also means consumer goods and even food etc., as everything now has a high level of energy input.
The demand for energy is going to be measured in multiples.
Agree.
The US has such a dynamic grid system allowing all sorts of energy into it seamlessly.
Australia not so much.
If Australia doesn’t get it power equation sorted soon, the level of economic productivity will stagnate at best but regress is more likely.
“Our” ABC back on track ..! After yesterday’s, accidental, shunting onto a side track with its “news” of the Israeli hostages rescue as the lead story “our” ABC has lefted itself and is back on its, main, “Israel Bad” track with not one but 3 anti- Israel stories …….
Ya can’t keep a good “leftie” sidelined for long .. LOL!
“I quickly got the got the feeling … that it wasn’t about the fare, and that it was about my skin, you know, and it was about the colour of me,”
Read the beginnings of this story and your given the impression that 1 or, maybe, 2 taxi driver said, “No way” cos “colour” .. BUT .. as it goes on you realise it ain’t about wordz but “feelinz” .. Neither driver, specifically, used “colour” in their excuses but the oft too-short-a-trip waffle to give her a miss .. Still, like your standard 251 whinge it’s alwayz about them ,, never reality..
And you’re left wondering .. how many non 251s does Perth Airport management offer to help in similar situations ..?
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-06-09/wa-musician-to-complain-after-alleged-racism-by-taxi-drivers/103957066
Musicians in general can be unkempt and smelly. Often under the influence of legal and illegal drugs. Possibly a reasonable refusal.
I like the way it’s linked to the failure of the campaign for the Voice…
The only criticism I can make of Israel is that they have been too nice to the the perennial shiitestirrers and failures as human beings.
Rabz, I saw your comment about Bond and Vesper. Which one was the Wow for? Eva Green, yes. The other one, no.
Eva, Ranga – magnifique.
“Read the beginnings of this story and your given the impression that 1 or, maybe, 2 taxi driver said, “No way” cos “colour” ”
Clearly a case of shorttripophobia.
Perth airport to Vic Park is not a short trip. Unless there is a recording its a he said she said case. Who knows. If she was refused by two cabs there could be something in it. I didn’t think a driver could refuse in a rank unless the person was drunk, drugged or belligerent.
I vaguely remember that someone was refused service due to their “Unkempt and Malodorous Condition” in Sydney in the 90’s, but have no way to support the claim. Just a fleeting memory.
But it sounds genuine in terms of the need for a cleaning fee/stand down while the Taxi was off the road.
“Emphasising that they didn’t vote for Chairman Dan, they still had six injections to travel. And still feared Covid.”
I didn’t vote for Dan, not once, but have had five injections and will probably get one in December if I plan to travel to Europe in January.
People still die of covid so if people are in the vunerable category or plain just dont want an overseas trip ruined by a bad dose they can be fearful , I guess they were not fearful enough to cower at home though.
I don’t see any need to reason with people who prefer to get vaccinated against a potential fatal illness.
Breitbart has an excellent piece on the Hostage rescue. The three male hostages were being held by a “journalist”. Oh noes! That’s unpossible!

I recall that other old queen Jack Charles tried on a hoax about being refused a taxiride, up and down the rank, in Perth.
Is it a Perth cabbie thing? One Sydney chick was baffled that no-one in perth would hop out, open a door, put bags in the boot, anything, and she was an 8/10, any day of the week. Luvvie arts insider Donovan would have been pretty flashly dressed, even if the ukulele was a red flag…
Oh look……The Oz’s Newspoll (one of the more accurate polls)…
Primary support for the Coalition has lifted to the highest point in almost three years following a damaging two weeks for Labor, as Peter Dutton closes in on Anthony Albanese as the preferred prime minister and the two major parties draw level on a two-party-preferred basis.
A backlash against the Greens has also delivered an electoral blow to the left-wing minor party after it was forced to defend claims by both Mr Albanese and Mr Dutton that the minor party was stoking anti-Semitic protests over the Gaza war.
Nice to know I still live in a country where there might be some electoral pushback to leftist Green Jew hatred.
I still think the Liberal’s ability to win back 19 seats is too much of a task when dealing with a first term government, no matter how inept and sleazy that first term government is, and the grubby forked tongued Trot from Grayndler takes first prize in ineptness and sleaziness however I suspect we will see an outcome similar to 2010. One good thing though, the Liberals don’t have the Scumbag factor hanging over them like a bad smell. But I reckon at least half of the Teals will be returned to the Liberal fold and many electorates lost to Labor in 2022 will be returned to the Liberal fold, and that includes the electorate of Aston lost to Labor last year.
I remember reading a piece in the Oz last year, soon after the unexpected Aston win, before life got too difficult for the scowling Trot and his comrades, that is before the unravelling economy, before the Voice defeat, before October 7, before October 9 when Jew hatred exploded on our streets, stoked by many of the Trot’s comrades on the left, the hard-left and among adherents of the religion of pieces, how the Trot from Grayndler was convinced he was ‘electoral messiah’ and that at the next election he was convinced Labor could snatch more seats from the Liberals, Labor could take Andrew Hastie’s seat and…wait for it…Dutton’s seat of Dickson, despite the factor that Labor has spent two decades throwing dosh at Dickson, desperately trying to win it from Dutton and failing every single time.
Even Labor hardheads, of which there are still one or two, thought the Trot was off his rocker and that the electoral highwater mark had been reached in 2022.
Albozo is no messiah, he always was and he always will be a Trot from Grayndler.
Good article on spiked about Starmer.
I see Macron has called for an election in France. Something has gone pear shaped for him.
The bloke is living in “luigi-world” .. he calls a domestic election cos he’s gotten thrashed by Le Pen’s party in the French Euro elections .. but if he getz beaten in the domestics he still has, close on, 3 years to go as prez .. with very little authority .. cos French prez’ rule thru parliamentary majorities not on their own decisions ……
Looks like a new paradigm for European politics.
Even an inebriated mole could sense a seismic shift was afoot when VDL started campaigning on family values.
Expect a rise in populism. Macron exhibiting cheese eating surrender monkey behaviour.
And the BBC reporting that the EU is fascist.
Chuckle.
Particularly from female members I would think. Men are not known to be especially…accurate. And after a few Swan lagers it would be even worse.
You have to wonder what these people are thinking, it’s so obvious.
One of radfems long term objectives has been to make men sit to piss.
The only criticism I can make of Israel is that they have been too nice to the the perennial shiitestirrers and failures as human beings.

Sister got lucky she was whinging & wailing, like towel-heads do, but only wounded .. Still 3 out of 4 is acceptable..! .. LOL!
Not wanting to make light of the tragedy of Michael Mosley’s death, he has been long hailed as a “health guru”. Why then, did he take off for a hike in the middle of the day, during a scorching Greek Summer, with an umbrella and a small bottle of water?
Here in Aus, it is rammed into us, practically from birth, that you don’t do anything stupid between 11 and 3. If you must, carry LOTS of water, and try to stay in the shade.
As someone commented upthread, “only Mad Dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun.
RIP Dr Mosley.
Health Gurus live in a world where they are immune to the consequences of stupidity.
Because they are Health Gurus.
Go figure.
With 25 years of professional Palestinian journalism, I’m surprised they weren’t stringers for the ABC.
AI’s decade ahead.
“You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion
compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Ev-
ery six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind
the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract
still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer
that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up
to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of Amer-
ican industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity
production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of
Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of
GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think
and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college grad-
uates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I;
we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along
the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-
leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll
be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer
of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might
be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the willful
blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype
and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale
technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps
a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI
labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces
of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these
people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which
allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few
years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years
remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest
people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technol-
ogy. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they
will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If
they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild
ride.
Let me tell you what we see.”

Funny how we can supposedly make machines that can “think”, but we can’t teach our kids to attain better than we did 30 or 40 years ago. Even after stuffing education with wads of money.

An Order of Australia for Dictator Dan.
That’s disgraced to the Order.
What precisely did he “achieve” that benefited the Victorian public other than political bastardry over a long period?
Dan still has many civil court cases against him Lose one such as slug gate and they will take it back any way he is a republican Hypocrite again
Or a much needed Judicial Inquiry (Same as Fitzgerald in Qld) or probably in this case a Royal Commission, bring a judge in from the UK to conduct it. Over to you opposition leader whoever you are?
Yes, that bastard deserves a prison term, not an award.
The Order of Australia has long been disgraced. This is just the cherry shaped turd on top of the cake.
Cost you 20,000 pound a year to go to Starmer’s school now.
What precisely did he “achieve”
Dan achieved the title of most trips to the IBAC for a Victorian premier.
Which we wouldn’t know about if it wasn’t for the Oz.
True, Cassie, but Newspoll finds the LNP is already 50:50 with the Liars — which means, considering “shy Tories” hate talking to pollsters, that the LNP is already far ahead 2PP.
Plus there’ll be no anti-LNP tricks this time, like the Britnah circus and the Rich Bitches, a.k.a. Teals
I might be an optimist, but I’m seeing a rerun of the Abbott landslide in 2013 now that Mr Potato Head has taken the side of the Forgotten People on cost of living and energy against the government’s climate/energy swindle.
Look at the way Bowen and Elbow are already squealing. And the leftwing media, including the ABC, haven’t even started their gotchas yet, which even the normies can see coming.
?
I’m an optimist too, Tom. At this stage, Dutton is doing everything right and I think that Labor are more than a tad concerned about him.
