This kind of aggression by US (i.e. Trump with his eye on November) will also stir up the sort of chaos that aids the resurrection of ISIS.  45 is positively Caligulous in his lack of restraint and sanity.  Fuck him and fuck his retarded zombie brigade.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he discussed the operation afterward with British and Chinese officials, telling them that “the U.S. remains committed to de-escalation.”   

I think the relevant phrase is "BWAHAHAHAHA!! "  these lying cocksuckers need the distraction of a war,  and a cause with which to rally the base and draw off some swing vote morons with the fear that Democrats will be too soft on Evil Iran and it's sinister plan for global domination.

Why else add an extra $200B to the Defense budget?


(actually the Defense budget has been so insanely bloated for so long that it's common for entire weapon systems to be funded that one branch or another of the services doesn't want).

The fires are the Devil's work.
Here is clear proof.
So happy with his evil work was he that he showed himself amidst the fire!

Spitting out 100metre large fire balls, he showed his face ...in the fire;

Devil's inferno;

Trump knew his Deutsche Bank laundering was about to get a fuller airing out and it would confirm all the worst about his debt peonage and financial subservience and dependence on Putin to stay afloat.

Morrison and Abbott are that Devil’s high priests.

[barton]

The devil is you and me and billions of other people who drive cars, use fossil fuel generated electricity and heating fuel, eat any form of animal protein and think we have the right to have as many children as we want.  There's a future where Charlton Heston is punching sand and screaming "you bastards!" in the ruins of New York...and we're the bastards.

Really, it's okay.  As Matt McConaughey observes in True Detective, you need the bad people to keep the other bad people from our door.  The truly good people, the ones who eat only plants and live in small huts whose heating system is to wrap yourself in a sheepskin, and ride bicycles, and never have more than one child...are probably going to be useless in moving the needle on how ordinary people use resources.  We need people who are stained with ecological transgression, and are feeling a twinge of guilt about it.

More like saviours, from the leftist years or Rudd, Gillard, Rudd labor govts...with their 50,000 asylum seekers on 800 boats allowed in, 1000+ drowning at sea and on the rocks at Christmas Island, a virtual taxi service from Indonesia...…..and their running up hundreds of billions of dollars of debt having been elected with the nation's bank account in credit.
Abbott "turned back the boats" to Indonesia, stopped the people-smuggling trade.
The leftist/MSM went after him, and got him.

Bar your shores, burn your coal at home and abroad, face your Devils. They are the same Devils you’ve been on your knees before for your entire life; Profit, Entitlement, Waste, Shortsightedness. Purgatory is over. Coffee break is over. Time for you to stand on your head.

The Devil is the Devil.
I am not the Devil.

I would drive an electric car, charged by electricity provided by solar panels, but there is no such thing available, or available at an affordable price.
As you can see by the fires and towns, average Aussie is 'poor', not 'rich'. "Barely able to buy groceries" many, after housing and utilities bills are paid.

Ride a bicycle in Australia, best of luck with that, a very dangerous thing to do.
Small huts not allowed, against planning laws.

Australia, pop 25 million [including babies, kids, elderly], not a lot of adults in reality, has limited ways to get income.
Digging up stuff and selling it, raising animals for wool/meat, and growing grain are its major exports.

[facilitatorn]

Dig up stuff you don’t intend to burn, by all means, grow plants and raise animals. Do whatever the Australian equivalent of a moon shot is around battery and electric storage and transfer technology, as Spain and England are doing in a big way.

I never said you were a Devil. I say you pray fervently to one, incessantly chant his psalms, and directly or indirectly spend you time doing his work. I tell you this for your benefit so that you may become aware and change your ways.

We'll sort out the Devil...he spits 100m fireballs, we'll make 200m firebreaks.

You try convincing society to give up its phones, computers, tvs, SUVs, heaters, aircons, flying holidays etc etc etc.
You try convincing climate change protesting school girls to do it...tell them to direct their anger at China too...mrs bambu tried it, they told her she was "just old and racist".

High priest of a very similar Devil to yours, Bambi

No one is asking you or society to give up anything above or to place any blame. We’re asking you to power those things differently.

When you pray to the Devil that no one arrives on your shores that looks or thinks differently than you do, he answers your prayers by making your lands uninhabitable desolations. No one will come when no one can stay.

Comment: Australia Is Committing Climate Suicide

BRUNY ISLAND, Tasmania — Australia today is ground zero for the climate catastrophe. Its glorious Great Barrier Reef is dying, its world-heritage rain forests are burning, its giant kelp forests have largely vanished, numerous towns have run out of water or are about to, and now the vast continent is burning on a scale never before seen.

The images of the fires are a cross between “Mad Max” and “On the Beach”: thousands driven onto beaches in a dull orange haze, crowded tableaux of people and animals almost medieval in their strange muteness — half-Bruegel, half-Bosch, ringed by fire, survivors’ faces hidden behind masks and swimming goggles.
Day turns to night as smoke extinguishes all light in the horrifying minutes before the red glow announces the imminence of the inferno. Flames leaping 200 feet into the air. Fire tornadoes. Terrified children at the helm of dinghies, piloting away from the flames, refugees in their own country.

#####

All true.
Climate change is real.
The percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere is 0.04%.
97% of that occurs naturally.
The rest, 3% of the 0.04% is caused by man.
Australia's share of that 3% is 1%.
...so my no1 radio host says. He's not convinced that Australia makes one iota of difference to anything.
