A Measure of Profound STUPIDITY posted by sophie, 2018-07-30 20:31:10 Today, religionists have gained a surprising degree of political power; in the USA it’s the Evangelicals that support Trump’s continuity as president. In the Middle East it’s extremist Wahhabi and Salafi fundamentalists that engage in religious wars. In Israel it's the extremist, fascist, Zionists that determine the nation’s violent policies. In Asia Buddhist monks lead revolutionary movements against corrupt governments and the list goes on. However, I would confine this short piece to the Abrahamic religions which lead the world in violence. (full story) prose / international
 The Magnificence of Self-deception posted by lewis, 2018-07-30 08:13:46 It’s magnificent due to its now pervasive global reach, the populist leader that knows jack shit about politics but sure knows how to take orders and dance in front of cameras. Sense, logic, skill, ability and political knowledge are no longer requirements for national leadership. The latest example is Pakistan, where a former cricket player and political dunce has been swept to power, of course with elite and military support, but no matter, he’s pretty and popular!

 Buying Assange’s Arrest posted by Whitney Webb via ferrite, 2018-07-27 22:47:30 White haired Aussie Julian Assange, perhaps more than any other individual alive is detested by the American Deep State that manically pursues his arrest and extradition in order to crucify the arrogant Aussie and hold him up as a 'slain' spectacle to others that may think they are able to compromise the OVERTLY criminal USA. And so Ecuador's new president has been bought by those interests that spare no expense when it comes to Assange's arrest/crucifixion. Quite CLEARLY sudden large US purchases of Ecuadorian oil are odd in view of history, if Assange's arrest and Moreno's compliant corruption are not taken into account. The cat is out of the bag. Which should galvanise support for beleaguered, Julian Assange, though that is a pipedream considering the mass media induced stupor of western populations. (full story) prose / international

 Trump Could be Ready to Order an Illegal Strike Against Iran, Australian Government Sources Say posted by Andrew Probyn and Andrew Greene via lucy, 2018-07-26 21:35:32 Notwithstanding the ludicrous statements made by Washington's trained Australian parrot, FM Julie Bishop, particularly Iran supporting its 'proxy fighters' in other Shia populated nations, which endeavour is the legal right to protect its people, in STARK contrast to ILLEGAL 'regime change,' as America's proxy fighters are employed to undertake, the entire notion of an unprovoked illegal attack on Iran is preposterous. Iran is EASILY able to block the transit of ALL oil tankers in the Persian Gulf thereby triggering a world wide crisis and perhaps economic collapse for numerous western nations. It also seems that Julie Bishop is 'somehow' blind (polly wants a cracker) to the fact that the USA is the world's largest supporter of criminal (extremist) proxy fighters, illegally deployed by Washington in the Middle East and North Africa, which groups are DIRECTLY responsible for the millions of refugees flooding European nations.

The militants are to be fast-tracked for resettlement in Europe and Canada. (full story) prose / international

Lost Directions posted by danny, 2018-07-24 21:53:20 It amuses me no end how modern man attempts to interpret ancient cave and rock ‘paintings’ with little or no appreciation of the cultural mindsets that created them. Some Australian rock paintings are tens of thousands of years old. They portray the hunt, tribal totems and the first intrusion of Europeans in the north, it should be remembered that the Dutch colonised Indonesia hundreds of years before Cook ‘discovered’ Australia, conveniently following maps and stories of Portuguese and Dutch sailors, in other words Cook discovered what was already discovered, however, British jails were overflowing and the usual dumping ground, America, was undergoing political unrest/rebellion, so newly colonised Australia became the next dumping ground for unwanted convicts, which were mercilessly put to slave labour to build a British outpost in the South Pacific from scratch.
