On the Sham Cur imbroglio contretemps, about the only thing she should have been found guilty of was stating the bleeding obvious, repeatedly. The guy is white and being an English cop, it goes without saying he would also be staggeringly stupid.

However, there is a clear double standard in play here, as has been pointed out many times. No prizes for guessing what it is, or how the jury would have found had the hue of the cop’s skin been, oh, black, perhaps?

As for the jury – they were clearly a pack of morons as well.

Football Australia (and Chelsea) should take some decisive action against Cur, including imposing a massive fine and a lifetime ban from playing for the Schlockerettes. Of course, the chances of this happening are zero. I’m not aware the foul entitled bint has even been censured by them for this appalling act of stupidity and bastardry.

What a joke.

The judge said the obvious after the verdict was returned – her poor behaviour contributed to the charges being brought and that will be reflected in how costs are awarded.

Not guilty…but not exactly innocent.

Football Australia would do well to note his remarks as they contemplate the next step.

But of course our woke elite and its ‘intersectional’ standard-bearers reserve the right to treat low-lifes such as drivers and waiters like dirt.

According to some UK media reports, that was a point of tension with Meghan Markle. Members of the royal family do not shout, scream and throw tantrums at the palace staff. For all the twaddle talked about the British class system, most of the royals know that respect is a two-way street.

I watched the whole of his speech, and it was, as usual, very good and right on target. I am no big fan of AI, think its promise is additive rather than transformative, and currently over-hyped, but I guess that depends on how one defines what it does and what it finally attempts to do. Vance certainly sees its immediate use being as an adjunct to existing jobs rather than taking over them, and he firmly fixes the AI future as needing lots of power from developed energy economies, on belonging and advancing firmly only with the ‘free and unfettered’ flow of information and ideas, without legislative hindrances on freedom of speech, and on requiring the political eye to be kept firmly on jobs for human workers, especially American workers, but worldwide too.

Vance is a persuader, and very good at that. He also is sensible and grounded in reality, which is where he wants AI to sit. All good so far.

This ‘why do you care about a tiny fraction of the population?’ line is, and always was, utterly ridiculous.

Yes, that is the line now.
“What does it matter to you what a small percentage of the population does?”
(Incidentally, we were being gaslit big-time about the numbers too … 5% … 8% … etc).
They are trying now to project that this was just a few people wanting to express themselves.
Setting aside the women’s sport thing, the whole pronouns thing was just a harmless form of freedom of expression, right.
Umm, no.
They wielded such power that people developed phobicphobia (a fear of being called xxxxxphobic).
Imagine you are a US Federal Public Servant and you get a slightly off-the-wall out-of-scope request from another department.

Meanwhile, in Germany, the mainstream is asking “Just who are the fascists here?” as the deep state exerts a shadowy control over civil society with illegal funding:

‘A much more tangible, but less noticed danger [than Alternative for Germany] comes from those organisations that claim to represent civil society and save democracy – although they are in fact mere continuations of the state apparatus …

This was revealed recently by the scandalous network of funding that links the current federal government with those groups that are apparently organising the spontaneous protests against the CDU Chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz and his alleged “shift to the right.”

From ‘Grandmothers against the Right’ to the Amadeu-Antonio Foundation, from HateAid to Campact, from BUND to NABU, we are learning about a structure of associations and organisations that … receive direct or indirect funding from the Green-controlled Ministry of Family Affairs under Lisa Paus, from Nancy Faeser’s SPD-affiliated Ministry of the Interior and even from Olaf Scholz’s Chancellery – and that are now intervening in the election campaign to support the governing parties. … This practice violates the constitution: A democratic state must not misuse taxpayer money to actively intervene in the formation of public opinion or to fight opposition parties.

In fact, the government-friendly puppet masters of the anti-CDU protests are just the tip of the political iceberg. For the NGOs have long since become a state within a state, a shadow or ‘deep state’ if there ever was one … As militant blockers of discourse and defenders of the status quo, they prevent urgently needed reforms – whether in migration policy, social policy or energy policy. In doing so, the NGOs use all means of manipulation and covert influence – and, like the supposedly “non-profit” media agency Correctiv or the dubious “hotlines for internet hate,” they are always on hand to discredit dissenting opinions as “disinformation” by “fact-checking.”’

Via eugyppius, quoting prominent journalist Andreas Rosenfelder writing at Welt.

It all sounds very familiar.

If the LNP are elected Dutton should defund our own domestic network of government funded activists, beginning with the ABC.

Drain the billabong!

Donald Trump trade adviser says Australia ‘killing aluminium market’ in blow to tariff exemption hopes

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s hopes of securing an exemption from Donald Trump’s incoming metals tariffs have been dealt a blow, with a senior presidential adviser accusing Australia of “killing the aluminium market”.

Last year, Australia exported 223,000 tonnes of steel to the US, and 83,000 tonnes of aluminium.

Mr Trump’s senior counsellor for trade and manufacturing, Peter Navarro, on Tuesday rebuked the idea of an Australian exemption.

“Australia is just killing our aluminium market,” he told CNN. “President Trump says no, no, we’re not, we’re not doing that anymore.”

Last year the US imported around 4.8 million tonnes of primary aluminium. The US also produced around 700,000 tonnes of its own.

Rough arithmetic says Australia’s contribution was less than 2% of the total US primary aloominum market.

If Australia’s marginal contribution is actually “just killing our aluminium market”, the US is very, very farked indeed.

On the other hand, if Trump’s senior counsellor for trade and manufacturing is blowing smoke and advising the Administration accordingly, the US is heading for interesting times on the trade front.

Australia produces lots of aluminium because in the past it sold electricity at 2.5c per kWh, which was probably below cost even before all the carbon boondoggles.

When electricity was generated by coal you could make an argument for subsidised base load users to smooth out the daily peaks. You cannot begin to look at the economics of electricity without recognising it has a time element and cannot be meaningfully stored in grid level volumes.

Correct, with electricity you have to store the raw materials (coal, oil, gas, hydro etc) because you CANNOT store the end product at anything like grid scale.

And therein lies the problem, you cant store wind or solar anymore than you can store electricity.

Albanese’s hypocrisy laid bare…

Government’s pride in ‘carbon tax’ is proof it’s out of its depth

Judith Sloan, The Australian, 11 February, 2025

It’s surely strange that the Albanese government would crow about ramping up the Safeguard Mechanism on our largest greenhouse gas emitters, including our steel mills and aluminium ­smelters, and then complain about the Trump administration imposing a 25 per cent tariff on steel and aluminium? Is it not the case of just jacking up a carbon tax – that’s what the Safeguards Mechanism effectively is – which the Albanese government would surely favour? OK, US producers are exempt, but surely any effort to reduce emissions should be ­welcomed?

The Safeguard Mechanism was first introduced by the Coalition government, but it never made any difference because the settings were very weak. The Labor government sought to reform the scheme which covers more than 200 of the largest emitters. Baselines are set for the greenhouse gas emissions of these facilities, and these are then lowered by about 5 per cent per year. It has the hallmarks of an emissions trading scheme – aka a carbon tax.

Of course, given the technology limitations and the potential costs involved, quite a few of these facilities will end up closing.

Leaving aside the loss of thousands of well-paid jobs, often in regional areas, and the waste of capital and future opportunities – these are huge considerations – the closure of these plants will ­enable the government to boast about getting close to its emissions reduction targets.

Sure, the production will move to China and now the US, but what the heck?

Now we know that when we are sick and vulnerable, you must be vigilant about who is caring for you.

I’ve been aware of the utterly malign influence of moozley sh*tbags in the NSW public health system (especially hospitals) for many, many years. Some of the horror stories I’ve heard about monstrous abuse of patients, their visitors and staff by moozley shitbags that are patients, visitors and more disturbingly, staff, are both infuriating and depressing.

I’ve long maintained there will come a time (actually, it’s long overdue) when moozleys will have to be prevented from being placed in certain positions or sectors (for example, airport security, ground crews, hospital staff) as they will inevitably constitute a blatant and unacceptable danger to the public.

Also, I’d heard the two goat f*ckers at Bankstown were boasting they had actually killed patients there. If that is true, they should currently be under arrest and have been summarily jobsacked, rather than “stood down”.

The prosecution of these two sh*tbags promises to be an extremely interesting case – and no doubt for all the wrong reasons.

The blatant and unafraid anti-Semitism in this country MUST be dealt with. 

No let what is in these people’s hearts flow.
Only in this way can we know what we are dealing with.

Arky, you mistake what I am saying. I am saying that anti-Semitism – in all aspects of its hatred – must be dealt with. This means, fundamentally, acts of hatred – covering graffiti, damage to property, et al.

Even so – if you think that it is OK for someone to shout in a child’s face that she/he is a filthy Jew – then, my friend, we are indeed at opposite ends of the debate.

Industry and science minister Ed Husic is at the National Press Club today spruiking science (no shock there) and the pathway for growing Australian research and development.
It’s the 40th anniversary of science and technology Australia (STA), which he says has gone from “strength to strength”.
On the more contentious area of artificial intelligence and its regulation, Husic says Australia signed the declaration on “inclusive and sustainable” artificial intelligence in Paris yesterday at the AI action summit.
He’s still working on broader guardrails for AI in Australia.

We are focused on seizing the benefits [of AI] while building trust, that is why we signed the Paris declaration overnight at the AI Action Summit, unlocking AI growth in ways that benefit the economy and communities. That is the focus of our national AI capability plan, while developing the right guardrails for high risk AI that might cause harm.

Debates about how to best govern AI are moving swiftly. We are listening closely to conversations here and overseas and we will have more to say on this soon.

You sort of, like, need electricity to run an AI datacentre.

Green Britain has 400GW of Stalled Data Center Requests, 60 – 70% will “Never Happen” (11 Feb)

In addition to power constraints, Cushman & Wakefield also highlights numerous other hurdles that datacenter builders are being confronted by across the EMEA region: limited land availability and strict sustainability regulations, all of which lean heavy on costs and project timelines.

We have all that too plus black tape as well. And our “power constraints” are even worse since we can’t draw upon other countries’ grids like Britain can.

HIV PASSPORTS ARE THE NEW GLOBALIST TROJAN HORSE

“HIV is neither necessary nor sufficient to cause AIDS.”
Luc Montagnier

AIDS is the new trojan horse for digital IDs now linked by Big Pharma/Big ID to sexual activity and HIV status.

First they used travel bans and Covid19 fearmongering, but it didn’t work to get a large enough numbers of the young hooked on digital IDs to balance those resisting them, so now they are using sex and the fear of AIDS to usher in their digital ID system for the next generations.

You heard it here first.

And yes, repeated boosters will compromise the immune system leading to V-AIDS (vaccine acquired immuno-deficiency syndrome) which will be misdiagnosed as “HIV caused AIDS”, and splices of HIV in the “vaccine” mRNA spike protein coding will make it more likely for the “vaccinated” to PCR test positive for HIV, starting the new PCR pseudoepidemic of HIV false testing.

NEW: Chrystia Freeland threatens Trump with the “biggest trade blow that the United States has ever endured.”

This includes 100% tariffs on all Teslas, a direct attack on Elon Musk, and a full ban on Wisconsin dairy products to stick it to Trump.

“I am calling on all the countries that are affected by this tariff to join us. And our retaliation will target specific Trump constituencies. Another group that we’re going to go after is Wisconsin dairy farmers. We know how important they are for the President, and we’re not going to let them sell their products in Canada anymore,” Freeland said.

This is the same woman who froze Canadian truckers’ bank accounts for protesting vaccine mandates.

Bankstown has never been populated by Vietnamese, the Vietnamese settled out around Cabramatta (some great restaurants out there).

Nope, until 1975 there were fewer than 2,000 Vietnamese people in Australia. The Vietnamese only started arriving en masse after the fall of Saigon in 1975. I wouldn’t call ‘after 1975’ the ‘early 70s‘.

When I left Melbourne on Feb 19, 1975, there were plenty of Vietnamese in inner Melbourne. I visited my Aunt in Scotland soon after. We took the bus into Glasgow ( to watch some curling) and I couldn’t get over some Vietnamese kids on the bus speaking with a strong Scottish brogue. Big cultural eye-opening day, that day.

Bespoke is actually correct. Many Vietnamese migrants came after 1975 through the migrant hostel at East Hills near Holsworthy.

Many then settled around South Bankstown and in particular opened many shops around the South Terrace road in the late 70s and early 80s near Bankstown railway station.

It changed later as the Lebs moved in and everybody else moved out.

The demographics of the area have changed a few times.

I mentioned a while ago about our service club picking up a dysfunctional woman whose drug wreck son had been beaten and thrown down the stairs for apparently refusing to hand over his stash.

This all happened in Adelaide fourteen months ago. It was quite a demand on our small club to escort her to Adelaide and pay for her stay.

After the second trip none of our members were willing to persist with her because she was too unstable, resentful and one one occasion, publically embarrasing.

Not to worry, after he eventually woke up and progressed through ICU, various surgeries, rehab etc the SA government funded her travel to Adelaide to participate in case reviews. She had children in Adelaide but wouldn’t delegate to them because she enjoyed the grift. Nobody can explain why this was not a Zoom exercise.

One of our folks who has expertise calculated that the wreck’s costs to the taxpayer were at least $1.7m, plus Mum’s travel.

He is now, with three other wrecks in a brand new four bedroom NDIS house owned by an NDIS for profit investment fund. There are two full time carers. Estimated cost is $300,000 pa. Mum can also visit at NDIS expense.

A NSW Health care worker stood down after he and another nurse allegedly threatened to kill Israeli patients in a video can be unmasked as a refugee from Afghanistan who aspired as a teenager to be a doctor.
Ahmad “Rashad” Nadir and a female colleague were stood down from Bankstown Hospital, in Sydney’s west, on Wednesday after a video of them allegedly “bragging about killing Israeli patients” went viral.

7NEWS.com.au can reveal this is not the first time Nadir has made headlines.
In 2015, then high school student Nadir was interviewed by SBS about disadvantaged youths aspiring to be doctors.
At the time, Nadir revealed he had fled from Afghanistan to Australia with his family when he was 12.
As part of his career aspirations, Nadir participated in the Chester Hill Helmsman Project, a not-for-profit organisation that runs coaching programs designed to help equip young people with life skills.
“Before the Helmsman Project I didn’t have great communication skills and now I know how best to talk to people and how to be a leader,” he said at the time.

NDIS, the prison system, the hospitals, police time, the loss of what should have been productive lives…a depressing sub-culture feeding off the mainstream.

It annoys me more than most when I saw Bill Shorten being lauded on his retirement. He is responsible for one of the biggest drags on our economy.

It particularly irks me to recall when, many years ago, he canvassed the nascent NDIS scheme at the Sydney Institute. He brought along a young couple with a handicapped pre-teen. He said this couple had never had a real holiday and outlined a scheme where “insurance” could give them respite. This is what we (and I) thought it was – an insurance offshoot of Medicare. Seemed a reasonable proposition at the time. NEVER trust Labor!!!!!

Judges can’t be personally sued for mistakes, says High Court in landmark ruling

The High Court has overturned a landmark case that had allowed a judge to be sued for the first time in Australia, depriving the Queensland father who had been wrongly jailed for contempt by Federal Circuit Court Judge Salvatore Vasta of more than $300,000 in damages.

In a 2023 case that sent shockwaves through the legal system, Justice Michael Wigney in the Federal Court found Judge Vasta was personally liable for the false imprisonment of “Mr Stradford” (a pseudonym) as he had “acted without, or in excess of, his jurisdiction”.

Judge Vasta had presided over the “grossest parody of a court hearing”, lawyers for Mr Stradford had argued, behaving like the foul-tempered Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland – delivering “sentence first, verdict afterwards”. 

But on Wednesday the High Court unanimously allowed an appeal by Judge Vasta, finding that all judges of courts referred to in section 71 of the Constitution are immune to a civil suit arising out of acts done in the exercise of their judicial function or capacity. 

“As Judge Vasta purported to perform such a function in convicting and sentencing Mr Stradford, he was not liable to Mr Stradford for false imprisonment”, the court found.
Mr Stradford had also sued the Commonwealth and the State of Queensland, but the High Court found that as each of the Queensland police officers and correctional officers who took the father of two into custody had a legal duty to execute orders or warrants made or issued by the Federal Circuit Court, they were not “beyond power” so the Commonwealth and Queensland were also not liable to Mr Stradford.

A person commits an offence if:

(a) the person threatens to use force or violence against a group (the targeted group); and

(b) the targeted group is distinguished by race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, intersex status, disability, nationality, national or ethnic origin or political opinion; and

(c) a reasonable member of the targeted group would fear that the threat will be carried out.

Penalty: Imprisonment for 5 years.

As envisaged by its initial proponents and to some extent by the Productivity Commission in its 2011 report on the NDIS.

Funnily enough, the head of the Productivity Commission at the time of the report recently admitted that they were spectacularly wrong about the NDIS, including the likely cost, scheme eligibility and the numbers accessing it and the incentives for and subsequent prevalence of fraud and abuse.

Writing on the Bankstown nurses, Claire Lehmann opines:

This social compact is grounded in a small-l liberal, egalitarian society. We pay high taxes that support our welfare system, schools, hospitals, and disability scheme. Australians accept this because our culture emphasises that “we’re all in this together.” This attitude was one reason why Australians were so compliant during Covid lockdowns. Because we are a small country, on a harsh, unforgiving landscape there is a much higher sense of collectivism in Australia as compared to the US. Rejecting the aristocratic class system of the Old World, Australia has a much stronger egalitarian spirit than the UK.

Claire seems to be scrubbing quite a lot of coercion out of her covid history.

Can we all just settle down please?
It’s just a misunderstanding. Daily Telegraph:

The male nurse at the centre of a social media video in which vile threats were made against Israeli patients claims the footage shows a joke gone wrong and that he wants to apologise to the Jewish community.

Ahmad ‘Rashad’ Nadir and Sarah Abu Lebdeh, who work as nurses at Bankstown Hospital, were stood down on Wednesday after the anti-Semitic video filmed during a night shift in the ward went viral.

Mr Nadir was born in Afghanistan and became an Australian citizen four years ago, after immigrating when he was 12 years old.

From his Bankstown home on Wednesday, Mr Nadir said he planned to publicly apologise to the “Jewish community and anyone I’ve offended”, but that first he needed to speak with police.

“It was a joke, a misunderstanding … I will use social media, anything, to apologise but I need to go and see the detectives first,” he said.

“The entirety of what happened is just a mistake, ok? But I’m not in the mindset to talk about it right now.

“This is very serious for me, it’s all over the news – it’s not a small thing.”

When asked what he meant by describing his video rant as a mistake, Mr Nadir said: “I’m not saying anything more”.

“I didn’t mean to offend”.

NSW Police Strike Force Pearl is investigating the video and whether hate speech laws have been broken.

When asked why he recorded a video so damning of Israeli people, Mr Nadir said: “It wasn’t meant to be like this”.

Several young children were inside his home with Mr Nadir, who said he is due to meet Bankstown detectives later on Wednesday afternoon.

The non apology apology.
Er, cockface, don’t pretend you didn’t mean what you said. You and your fellow adherents love themselves a dead Jew.

The Commish weighs in:

NSW Commissioner Karen Webb called it a ‘sad day’ for officers having to investigate such appalling behaviour in the community.

She said Strike Force Pearl detectives had spent the day at Bankstown Hospital seizing CCTV and speaking to other staff members.

Ms Webb said there was “no excuse” for the nurses’ behaviour.

“This is a sad day for our country, it is unthinkable that we are confronted with and forced to investigate such an appalling incident.”

“The speed in which this incident was reported by NSW Health significantly assisted detectives in what is a very serious investigation.”

“Detectives have managed to interview staff and establish areas within Bankstown Hospital where detectives believe the video was allegedly filmed.

“We have also seized CCTV footage which is currently under review, there will be further developments overnight.”

“Its crucial police are given time to conduct further interviews and navigate this high-level investigation.”

You’re quite right, PoliticoNT, but Australian Labor sees muslim immigration as its ticket to eternal political power.

The fact that muslim activists now think they have the ALP over a barrel is just the downstream consequence of ALP policy, to which Albanese and the rest of Labor’s left is ideologically wedded.

One-term Albo is still the radical activist he was 30 years ago. Like Whitlam he regards it as a badge of honour and knows he’ll be turfed out in a few months. Bring on the election!

After the rain, the grass has grown well. The weeds have grown spectacularly. They’re now hip high.
Old mate dropped by with his mower and did some of the paddock while I was out, and for the third time hasn’t seen the grapevine growing near the gazebo concrete and cut it off at the base.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/feb/12/ukraine-war-briefing-zelenskyy-prepared-to-offer-swap-of-seized-kursk-land

Volodymyr Zelenskyy will offer Vladimir Putin a swap of Ukrainian-occupied territory in Kursk for Russian-held land in Ukraine, if Donald Trump manages to bring them to the negotiating table, Shaun Walker reports. “We will swap one territory for another,” the Ukrainian president said in an exclusive interview, adding that he did not know which part of Russian-occupied land Ukraine would ask for in return. “I don’t know, we will see. But all our territories are important, there is no priority.”

Gives Zelensky a fig leaf and would let Puti boy claim victory.

Probably the best Ukies can manage.

Ukraine’s defence ministry launched a recruitment drive for young people on Tuesday, encouraging 18- to 24-year-olds to volunteer to serve in the military for a year for the equivalent of about $24,000 plus large bonuses and subsidised mortgages and rents. Ukrainians can be conscripted only once they turn 25. The under-25 volunteer contracts also offer a 12-month exemption from mobilisation when completed.

Re Tasmanian placenames…

Wrote twice to The Mercury Letters to the Editor saying lower case proper nouns for placenames were ridiculous but they wouldn’t print either.

(Note how most people can’t pronounce so-called Aboriginal place names so they don’t use them…)

It’s also ridiculous to use Roman script to write a place-name, and then to insist that a letter be pronounced in a way different to its usual fashion.

Fun factoid: Kiribati is a pidginization* of Gilbert.
We’ve seen all sorts of exotic glamour cast upon adopted place names lately, inc the no-caps txt style, the gay underscore which they tried to impose above the tropic of capricorn, the Hawai’i jealousy of k’Gari, and the petty insistence on Gamberri (Canberra- which is a made up name for a planned city anyway) and njinggulu (pronounced… Ningaloo. But with added $5K Welcome to Country).
Personally, it’s the pidgin dropped articles I can’t stand. OUR Mob, A Language, Welcome to THE country.

Maxim Tucker

Wednesday February 12 2025, 12.01am GMT, The Times

The British tank lay in wait hidden behind a treeline, the Ukrainian crew crammed inside it, a Russian armoured column approaching them.
Just under a dozen Soviet-era infantry fighting vehicles and heavy armour came over the horizon, moving towards a position five kilometres away from the modern Challenger 2 tank. The column had ended up in its ideal kill zone.
None of the vehicles managed to locate the 75-tonne tank as it pumped 25 armour-piercing rounds into the column, with its powerful 120mm rifled gun reducing its targets to burning hulks.

I can assure everyone that the two Muslim ‘nurses’ (cough cough) were not joking. They meant every word they said. They were being ‘honest’.

But let me make two points…..

Firstly, these two Jihadis have been empowered to speak the way they did by our weak federal government, by various weak state governments (including the NSW government) and by our various state police forces, all of whom have sat back and allowed such people to take over our CBD streets every week now for 16 months.

Secondly, this is the inevitable result of decades of leftist ideology running rampant through our government departments. Last year Bankstown Hospital put out a flyer and pictured in the flyer was a person wearing a “Free Palestine’ t-shirt. The hospital didn’t edit it, no, the hospital was proud of it. Hospital unions attend ‘Free Palestine’ rallies. I suppose supporting Muslim Nazism is ‘inclusive’.

Their staff have been heavily involved in anti Semitic parading for 15 months.
I wouldn’t go near the place if I were Jewish.
Actually I wouldn’t go near the place.

I wouldn’t go near the place as a Catholic either, Rosie. “First Saturday, then Sunday” is another popular Moz chant.

Well, you cannot expect the alphabet people to be guinea pigs.

I understand that the hospital is planning some construction work. I wonder how much will be underground.

Aboriginal Congress: Convicted land council boss Warren Williams should be celebratedMohammad Alfares
2 hours ago

The Central Australian Aboriginal Congress has defended the embattled chair of the Central Land Council, Warren Williams, saying he needs to be “celebrated” for his leadership despite having an extensive criminal record, ­including assault and multiple instances of contravening domestic violence orders.
In a statement issued after The Australian revealed Mr Williams’ criminal record, the congress’ male health manager, Michael Liddle, said the newly appointed chair played a crucial role in programs aimed at helping Indigenous men turn their lives around.

Words fail me, they honestly do.

“turn their lives around”.

But which way? Towards the past or the future?

There is an instragram group ‘nurses and midwives for palestine’.
Sydney based.
They seem nice.

might be time to have a look at their output and see if it makes them unsuitable to be health workers and employees of health organisations.

The big issue is how and why people working in healthcare holding anti-Semitic sentiments get to keep their practicing licenses and employment.

If Hamas does not return our hostages by noon on Saturday, the ceasefire will end, and the IDF will resume intense fighting until Hamas is decisively defeated,” Prime Minister Netanyahu said following a cabinet meeting Tuesday.

“repowering” equals demolish the old, worn out windmills and build new ones?

An object lesson in how much can be added to the cost run of Albanese’s climate energy project. The need for renewables to be constantly renewed has so far fallen off the agenda in all costings. Time to change that and let the voters know.

Just reading 1939 book The Empire of the Steppes. Astounding how fast these tribes picked up Islam in the early years e.g. Turkomen. It is the perfect ideology of a warring, conquering tribe. Violence, yet mercy if you submit.And paradise for the warlike.
Like the Bankstown nurses.

I can guarantee you all that if a ‘white’ man and woman were recorded on Youtube joyfully and gleefully espousing the murder of Muslims, they’d already be languishing behind bars.

Kel Richards on the Late Debate idiotically describes the 2 muzzie nurses who boasted about killing Jew patients as a couple of bad apples giving the vast majority of good muzzies a bad name. This fuking trope is insidious and wheeled out by every moron in the MSM: the opposite is the case: these 2 pieces of shit are typical muzzies and islam.

The “good” Mueslis in a way are worse, in fact they are the Trojan Horse by which Islam works its way into the West like a cancer eventually taking over when their numbers are sufficient.

When it comes to the Jews, there are no ” vast majority” of good Muslims.

They are lunatics in their hatred for the most part.

But. but there’s a spot on the Hang Seng index that’s risen 50%, but you need an advanced microscope to see it.

Meanwhile the actual index itself is down around 60% since 2017.

Look, you dredged up a silly, CCP bootlicking comment from an Asia Times columnist whose found some tiny spot in the Hang Seng index that’s gone up. Meanwhile the entire index itself is down 60% and you’re now defending this with some nonsense that its 8 years old.

And then, there’s this.

Is the claim, Hang Seng 49% up in 12 months correct?

As I said, it’s down. Down almost 60%!
