  Trump views Australia as Insignificant posted by cyd, 2017-02-16 23:31:59
Hilarious!
Reactive, imbecile Trump tells truth about America’s regard for Australia, insignificant! Referring to the call between himself and Oz PM Malcolm ‘useless’ Turnbull, the US president, regarded the call as “unimportant”, which view is clearly a smack in the gob of Mr harbour side mansion, supreme narcissist, Turnbull -- you’ve really got to laugh when two distinctly flawed personalities lock weenies.

 Do You See What I See-ee? posted by jess, 2017-02-16 21:13:55
Yes, indeed, it's the title of a song by Hunters and Collectors, however, I would use it in another context, reality vs media induced fantasy. (full story)

 Worst Joke Ever - US Spy Chief Gives Saudi Prince Highest Award for 'Fighting Terrorism' posted by Mike Whitney via cyd, 2017-02-14 21:06:48
On Friday, the Director of the CIA, Mike Pompeo, used his first trip abroad to present Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef with the CIA’s highest award for fighting terrorism, the George Tenet Medal. Although the ceremony wasn’t covered by any of the major media, it was picked up on various blogsites where the news was greeted with predictable howls of outrage. Not surprisingly, most American’s still see Saudi Arabia as the epicenter of global terrorism, a point which was underlined in a recent article at The Atlantic titled “Where America’s Terrorists Actually Come From”. Here’s an excerpt: (full story)

Trump Will Spark a War With Iran – Which is Great News for Isis posted by Patrick Cockburn via gus, 2017-02-13 21:38:16
President Trump made great play when he came into office with his return of a bust of Winston Churchill to the Oval Office, presenting the move as a symbol of his admiration for adamantine patriotic resolve in pursuit of patriotic ends. Presumably, Trump was thinking of Churchill in 1940, not Churchill in 1915-16 when he was the leading advocate of the disastrous Gallipoli campaign in which the Turks decisively defeated the British army with great slaughter.

 Oz Parliament Resumes and it’s back to Kindy Politics posted by darcy, 2017-02-10 22:53:17
You would think Canberra pollies have learned, not least from the plummeting support from the Australian people, which are so sick and tired of major party petty, UNPRODUCTIVE, personal political attacks and being ignored that a tidal wave of disgruntled response is hurtling toward the political capital, which, when it surely strikes, would see both major parties completely devastated.

 Lots of Shouting, Tiny Dick posted by Pepe Escobar via dan, 2017-02-09 22:47:18
Donald Trump won't be winning any wars against Islamist terror if he imagines dismantling the Russia-China-Iran alliance is possible. His loud mouth and saber-rattling against Iran is pointless (full story)

 Trump can only be stopped with a bullet posted by jorge, 2017-02-06 06:13:00
Much to my personal displeasure I have a duty as a real journalist to follow world events, which revolve around the new president of the USA, Donald Trump. So much for broad impartial news coverage. (full story)

 Bannon/Trump: The Absurdity of UN-representative Leaders posted by jess, 2017-02-04 06:27:38
What would we expect if we elect leaders not of our own kind? The simple answer is of course, non-representation. Sure, anyone can make empty promises to the moronic masses, politicians and demagogues specialise in this type of deception, but a far more dangerous threat lurks. (full story)
