It’s a Glowing Example Replacing Our depleted Healthy Fishing Industry
Watch this video, you may learn something about the fish called BASA which Coles and Woolworths SELL

For those of you that think Vietnamese Aquaculture is safe watch this clip

The public don’t know how to thank the greens and government for closing down our rural and fishing industries with unworkable engineered legislation that provided healthy produce to be replaced with this toxic crap on our tables.

Russia Ukraine & the Rest

If ever there was proof just how western neo-cons and war mongers of the USA push for change in the governments of sovereign countries; this story tells it and tells who is at the top of the pile.

History may well hold President Obama high in esteem for his ability to stand against those in the political and military power of the USA; those who see the need to wage war where perhaps they should never be.

• Regime change in Syria would see Russia’s small Mediterranean naval base gone.
• Regime change in Ukraine would see the huge Russian Sebastopol naval base in Crimea gone.
• Denigration and blustering against Iran sees another Russian friend put under pressure and assuredly regime change there is a USA goal for the same reasons.

As Europe – hence the European Union – has expanded and the USSR – now just Russia – has been decimated geopolitically & Geographically, NATO has never let up on the pressures being applied to remaining Soviet borders.  This may be a good thing in some minds, but at some time there comes a need to call enough as being enough.

There can be little doubt of a need for Russia to remain a strong independent nation.  It is a nation rich in minerals, precious metals along with energy such as gas and oil. Europe relies on these natural commodities and in winter, not only would Europe suffer, but many, many citizens of the myriad of countries who rely on such energy for heating etc.; would die.

While the world demonises President Putin and his nation over Ukraine and perhaps culpably & falsely so over the downing of MH17; the USA is shown to have a grubby hand; yet people in general – busy with their daily lives – don’t seem to have the time to see it that way.

Ukrainian Separatists & Russia Tried & Convicted by a Kangaroo Court

Controlling Public Opinion

With the Ukrainian Separatist Rebels claiming they did not have a BUK system and their leader claiming he did not  give any orders to shoot down MH17, let alone have the ability to do so; the media does not give up on apportioning blame towards Russia and the Ukrainian Separatists.

Who knows at present; maybe they did, maybe they did not, so let’s put aside the past and just consider the present outside the fog of misinformation.

As the International team make numerous attempts to gain safe access to the crash site and assess the wreckage as best as able and thereby also attempt to recover whatever missing bodies they can find; there comes a need to consider the obstacle and what the obstacle indicates.

The Ukrainian western concocted government – with Yatsenuk now resigning – seems somewhat in disarray; a situation one would have considered most unlikely given the amount of western overt support they seemed to have garnered since the crash.

Yet it is the Ukrainian forces pushing the civil war to a point where the International teams are no longer safe to get entry to the downed aircraft’s site.  If Ukraine were serious about seeing all the bellicose rhetoric they have spewed in the direction of the Ukrainian Separatist’s – rhetoric they espouse as facts re the downing of MH17 – then their current actions perhaps speak volumes about their real intentions whilst hidden behind the fog.

All it would require to satisfy International desires is for the Ukrainian Government forces to have halted their military where they were for the duration – ceased their continuing bullet firing military push – and let the inquiry teams in to do their work matter solved.  The Ukrainian Separatists are not against letting the teams in and onsite; they are against allowing spies and enemy advances to gain a military advantage through the processes; an advantage which may well give their enemy an additional foot hold against them; almost just as has happened.

It is quite clear to any lateral thinking person; the Ukrainian forces are equally if not more so the ones ensuring the evidence as is left, deteriorates to such a point little forensic evidence of real good is able to be located.  Why?

Because it is just as reasonable to suspect a unit of the Ukrainian Government forces were the ones who fired off the missile/s. Even USA’s own Intelligence appears to lend some credence to this consideration; albeit, the subsequent spin to defuse this evidence was as swift as it was laughable.  A spin which grows by the day with all sorts of intelligence claims, yet with little if any evidence of substance and credibility being made available.

As the evidence may well point at the Ukrainian forces as much as the Ukrainian Separatists being the shooters of MH17; there comes perhaps a need to ensure little, if any real evidence remains and time here is the ally to this goal.

The public opinion against the Ukrainian Separatists is such that if the Ukrainian Military can forestall the investigation and hence degrade the evidence beyond useless, that media contrived public opinion may well be the driving force giving what skimpy and perhaps contrived evidence being left, any credibility in people’s minds; and that opinion at this point has been carefully massaged to be all against the rebels, Putin and Russia.

Mainstream media cannot help themselves making statements which apportion dedicated blame; yet the evidence – real indisputable evidence – to support those statements does not exist; not yet.

It is noticeable the envoys and government spokespeople of all nations except the USA are very careful in their choice of words when publicly speaking of the downing.  Yet the media are not so circumspect and go so far as to constantly barrage the wider western world’s public with language which should really frighten us all.  The media have become a Kangaroo Court; bestowing upon themselves the office of judge, jury and executioner of the Ukrainian Separatists, President Putin and Russia combined.

Why ever would the world beyond the western powers ever believe in the democracy the west so vehemently tries to foist upon those not so governed; when all they see is deceit and bullying through power and might, whilst allowing the most powerful tool of all; the misuse of a biased western mainstream media to indoctrinate the wider globe’s western public.

In the modern world of the Internet; western law tries to recognise: should information published affect the outcome of a trial, or defame an individual or an entity – regardless of borders – then that publishing may be held legally responsible and accountable.  Who is going to take to task and hold a wild and out of control media responsible and accountable for such transgressions; transgressions which could indirectly lead to wider local, or global conflict?

Has the sad downing of MH17 just become a tool for western politics and a US led NATO push against an old foe – Russia with a wider view of encircling China?

MH17 Beyond the Victims

Flowers for the MH17 Lost in Kiev

In times of ultimate sadness and horror; the human mind becomes easily malleable to outside influences where normally structured and considered thoughts act as a bulwark.

With another Malaysian Airliner down and all aboard lost over a battlefront contested area of Ukraine; the loss of innocent international lives seems not just a crime of the airways, but one against all humanity.

The personal sadness for families this act of war has brought to the so many loved ones of the victims is incalculable and this is a story, a narrative all on its own in this event; but the who; the why and the how; this is the other story, the other narrative altogether.

It is this latter narrative which must not be lost in the fog of sorrow and emotion. I will start by saying our Ally the United States is not always trust worthy any more. Not with its words and nor with its money.

• The Ukraine has been a NATO front line for the USA’s push against Russia for years and this is so well known it is not necessary to rehash the evidence of their doing so.
• The right wing arm of the current Ukrainian Government is allegedly linked well to the killing of innocents in protests during the recent uprising to oust the democratically elected leader of Ukraine.
• The world’s main stream media in many cases appeared to pull back the same bed sheets as the US propaganda machine from day one; yet there were no facts to support the rhetoric they flooded the public with.
• Vladimir Putin upstaged the United States with the peaceful annexation of Crimea and from that date he became their anti-Christ. Russia became the enemy of Ukraine which became the true battleground for the Ukrainian peoples to spill their blood upon; but more importantly; became the cold war battle ground for the US to rush out and keep poking the quiet stalwart neighbouring bear.

Who shot down MH17 has still yet to be investigated and identified. What is known as a fact;       

• It was, possible for the Rebels of east Ukraine to do so;
• It was, possible for the Ukrainian Military to do so;
• It was, possible for the Russians to do so, and;
• It was possible for the United States Military to do so.

It is also clear should the Terrorists have somehow had in their possession, the equipment and skills; shooting down an International airliner full of the world’s citizens would bring upon them nothing but condemnation of the ultimate kind from the rest of the world.  The only reason this side could have shot down MH17, is by error of judgement of target.

Yes Russian military had the skill, the weaponry and the position to be able to bring down MH17. No such action would be countenanced from their command to do so.  Yet should they have done so; once again nothing but bad bad response could be forth-coming from such an action.  Russia had zero to gain and maximum loss to expect from such an action.

The United States and the Ukraine are one here.  There are so many US trained spooks and special forces wandering the landscape of local and wider areas of Ukraine and Europe today. Who are they training? What weaponry have they supplied covertly to whom within the Ukrainian forces? How many drones are in the skies and what weaponry is attached to those stealthy wings?

If a plane such as MH17 was brought down over Eastern Ukraine as has been done, and all blame was directed towards the rebels; well now we perhaps have reason for such a heinous action to occur.  Not at or by the hands of inept rebels per-se’; but by the hands of others making it appear so.  All that is needed after such an action is the assistance of an already biased media and suddenly we have exactly what we have today; “Russian backed rebels shoot down international jet full of global citizens.”

No facts; no known truths; no substance; just another global public indoctrination by a western compliant media reporting spin from desperate Politicians so furious with Vladimir Putin’s ability to shaft them with a chess player’s skill and logic. Would they use an event like the killing of 297 innocent souls as a pawn in their game to encircle the last realms’ of the Bear; a bear who still wields sharp claws?

The Syrian gas rockets fiasco; the non-existent weapons of mass destruction in Iraq; are just two contrivances most today are familiar with. United States is quick to rhetorically skewer its foes falsely, all the while holding designs to rain bombs down upon those they wish to depose and or dispose of, the moment the global public are on side.

This brutal act of mass killing in the skies over Ukraine has a culprit that is for sure; but who that culprit is has yet a long dust billowing road to traverse before such a culprit can hang from the gallows.  What is certain is; that he who cried first “Not me Not me” while their ally cried “We know it is not the Ukraine” is indicative in the first instance of a guilty conscience and such decriers need to be subjected to the harshest scrutiny and investigations.

Reported in the NY Post @1203pm 17/07/2014: The doomed aircraft had been tracked by a surface-to-air missile system right before it went down, a senior US official told CNN. The United States was working to track the rocket’s trajectory to determine its origin, the official said.

American intelligence authorities believe it unlikely that the Ukrainian government had the capacity to take down the plane. Kiev was quick to blame the tragedy on pro-Russian, anti-government rebels who have been waging a separatist war.

http://consortiumnews.com/2014/07/18/facts-needed-on-malaysian-plane-shoot-down/

It matters not for the victims of MH17 who; but those left behind and we the people can have no forgiveness for those ‘who’, who caused this crime to occur.  They are criminals of the worst kind; be it error or intent; the crime is unfathomable and unconscionable.

As a global nation though; we must first find ‘who’ those criminals are.  I for one am not pointing the finger at one, when there is perhaps good reason to be looking closer at those whom we believe are supposedly above reproach.

West Pushing Ukraine to War

 

War is not about war in itself here; it is about the arms Industry, the energy resources and most importantly for the USA and its desires; it is about bashing Russia to the ground once and for all under the guise of NATO.(This you tube video is of the 5^th March) To do this, the people of the Ukraine are essentially to be sacrificed.

The hawks of war from the West – point-manned by John Kerry & Victoria Nuland – are slowly getting their way. Five billion dollars of US aid to Ukraine which is touted to lead the country towards democracy but ostensibly was more about NATO getting closer to Moscow and wider-retreating Russia; is now having an effect.

They are leading a fledgling nation to civil war as we speak. Still those plans may not be working as well as desired by the western protagonists, or fast enough; hence the overt western troop deployments.

This in itself is bad enough, but the reality behind the scenes, is the slow yet steady build-up of those US and Canadian forces within the area, in Poland and Estonia etc is now bolstered by a Jet fighter group from Canada being based in Romania. Combined with the Harpoon Missile carrying USS Truxtun in the Black Sea; this fighter group seriously and provocatively threatens the Russian Black sea fleet at Sevastopol.

The whole mess is starting to exponentially explode and the causation for this in the first place will be hidden behind the smoke of war and the mushroom clouds of nuclear retaliation. History’s veracity of this fiasco will only be fact in the eyes and minds of the winners; yet it is doubtful if there will be any winners at the end of this conflagration.

• President Putin is fighting for the long term survival of his nation Russia.
• President Obama via the powers who hold more might than the office he holds, are fighting to preserve the military industrial machine which will wither to dust as the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan cease to be for the US.
• The privateer armies – these are the contractors and mercenaries – they are almost assuredly already with boots on the ground in Ukraine and although they fight for money individually as unconscionable soldiers; as a led legion of death dealers, they fight for the global oil and energy companies along with the military industrial machine as paid spoilers of peace: In fact they will fight for anyone or cause that is capable of paying their fee.

COMMERCIAL SERVICES – Academi

[Threats to the human experience manifest themselves in innumerable ways. When an event occurs that causes harm, chaos and disruption, the costs to recover can be incalculable. Critical Infrastructure operators and commercial facilities are increasingly targeted by adversaries in often violent and unrecoverable ways. ACADEMI provides facility assessments, tailored training and armed protection to high-risk commercial clients worldwide.]

The people of Ukraine are just fighting for the survival of their country; their way of life; their very existence.

China may sit on the fence, but which side they step off on may very well determine the fate of the globe.

The Big Fix – BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Cover up

We again revisit this amazing 2012 video production exposing this oil spill coverup and poisoning the people with toxic chemical to disperse the oil. This is a must view video for everyone to be aware how corporations and government work together to keep us all in the dark. This corruption is now endemic across the world.

Do you think it maybe time, being 24 months down the track, we the people did something about this everyday government and corporate corruption that causes decimation of life on this planet?

Vic Government Computer Experts Rolled By 16 Year old

December 2013 saw 16 year old Victorian school boy report a backdoor opening in the Government authority Public Transport Victoria (PTV) website offering access to the database hosting some 600,000 entries containing full names, addresses, home and mobile phone numbers, email addresses, dates of birth, seniors card ID numbers, and nine-digit extracts of credit card numbers.

Joshua, a self-described ”white hat” security researcher, said he was motivated by a desire to improve online security. He first contacted PTV by email on Boxing Day, but received no response, nor one week later, however this week, one month later the PTV to save face of their IT and computer management experts found by this 16 year old to be populated by incompetence report the kid to the police quoting he could be charged under the cybercrime act.

There was a time 10 years ago when SOS-NEWS computer forensic team were out to help, that ceased after warning people of our discovered scam selling a non existent executives directory to medium and small businesses around the world. Australia was targeted and harvested  so the scammer’s reeled in personal information these Aussies tendering like lambs to the slaughter.

Tailgating website hosts we intercepted the scammer’s database then decided to alert people of the trap they had sprung. The response from 95% contacted was “how did we get their phone number and email address“? – The answerer:  they filled out the scammers form looking for a free ride. Abuse and threats of intention reporting our findings to the enforcers (who were lacking skills and infrastructure at that time) we walked away.

Disillusioned, we sat back watching those 2500 Aussies lambs being fleeced for an average of $500 each from a phantom database in cyberspace and they suggested “we were the criminals”. Our cyber space watch is ever present and amazing scams are perpetrated with the only thing that still remains constant,  Australia is the most lucrative target for internet fraud running multi-millions of dollars each year. We still only watch.

Now the have fixed up the 16 year old doing the right thing and embarrassing the shit out of the public service, it’s time to muster the 600,000 who may have had their information stolen by sniffer-hackers finding this same open backdoor and mount a class action against PTV for failing to secure and protect their entrusted sensitive data.

Three weeks ago the Victorian Auditor General John Doyle warned government departments they are woefully ill-equipped to combat cyber attacks after an audit report in November identified well over 100 information security breaches and lapses during penetration testing – or authorised hacking of government websites.

Much needed are several more unqualified 16 year old to commission all government computer systems before launching to public use. Clearly these red faced $150,000+pa salaried government accredited computer experts are reflecting astonishing limitations to basic software encryption protocols.

Entrusted with our national security, terrorism watch, military and spy networks, this caliber of computer experts under government covers must be of concern to us all.

Public tolerance to decades of political party dictatorship funded of taxpayer dollars maintaining this 4th Reich political system of government is astounding.

When will “Enough be Enough people”?

To bureaucratic enforcers and the experts involved. You offer no challenge to the massive world wide army of computer youth, not accredited, working together hosting very real ability to render any computer systems useless should they choose.

Abbott’s Astonishing Limitations

Now in office Tony Abbott does not require the voice of the people to interrupt  party room agenda nor honour an election promise  as this master of deceit who from parliament in opposition stated  to stop the flow of boat people, has shown his spineless ability in this matter.

Consider everyday you go to work your tax is supporting approximately 33,000 asylum seekers in Australia, living on 89% of the standard unemployment benefit rate and they are not allowed to do paid work.

Our new dictating Liberal government in the parliament of fools quietly gazetted last week a code of conduct to be signed by asylum seekers which came into force on Saturday 14 December 2013.

Arriving illegally reflects the start of asylum seekers thumbing their noses at Australian law as they play the civil libertarians, tax funded legal services, and our pathetic judicial system, not forgetting the political correct fraternity suggests non compliance will be rampant as they smile while signing this code of conduct.

• We have been reduced to visitors in our own country – why have we allowed this to happen?

• The two party system has removed your freedom – would you now like to change your mind?

Ian had to say this week. as only an Australian could.

“Okay, here’s the bombshell. The volcanic eruption in Iceland . Since its first spewing of volcanic ash has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet – all of you.

Of course, you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress – it’s that vital chemical compound that every plant requires to live and grow and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans and all animal life.

I know….it’s very disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kids “The Green Revolution” science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationing at home instead of abroad, nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50 cent light bulbs with $10.00 light bulbs…..well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes in just four days.

The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth’s atmosphere in just four days – yes, FOUR DAYS – by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased every single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon. And there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planet spewing out this crud at any one time – EVERY DAY.

I don’t really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should mention that when the volcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it spewed out more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth.

Yes, folks, Mt Pinatubo was active for over One year – think about it.

Of course, I shouldn’t spoil this ‘touchy-feely tree-hugging’ moment and mention the effect of solar and cosmic activity and the well-recognized 800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which keeps happening despite our completely insignificant efforts to affect climate change.

And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud, but the fact of the matter is that the bush fire season across the western USA and Australia this year alone will negate your efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years. And it happens every year.

Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you, on the basis of the bogus ‘human-caused’ climate-change scenario.

Hey, isn’t it interesting how they don’t mention ‘Global Warming’ anymore, but just ‘Climate Change’ – you know why?

It’s because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past century and these global warming bulls..t artists got caught with their pants down.

And, just keep in mind that you might yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme – that whopping new tax – imposed on you that will achieve absolutely nothing except make you poorer.

It won’t stop any volcanoes from erupting, that’s for sure.

But, hey, relax……give the world a hug and have a nice day!”

 

GREEN TAPE PREVENTS VOLUNTEERS RURAL FIREFIGHTERS FROM REDUCING BUSHFIRE RISK

Green Fire out of control

The Volunteer Firefighters Association (VFFA), the body representing the Voice of Volunteer Rural Firefighters in NSW refutes the claim by green alarmists that climate change is the cause of the recent bushfires in New South Wales. 

It’s ridiculous to blame climate change when we know there has been far worse bushfires stretching back to the earliest days of European settlement in Australia including the Black Saturday Victoria 2009, NSW Bushfires 1994, Ash Wednesday Victoria 1983, Blue Mountains NSW 1968, Black Tuesday Hobart 1967 and Black Friday Victoria 1939, said Peter Cannon, President of the VFFA. 

The VFFA is angered by comments from the green lobby groups that tackling climate change was more important than prescribed burning of forest fuels to reduce bushfire risk. The real blame rests with the greens and their ideology as they continue to oppose and undermine our efforts to conduct hazard reduction in the cooler months and to prevent private landowners from clearing their lands to reduce bushfire risk. 

Hazard reduction is the only proven management tool rural firefighters have to reduce the intensity and spread of bushfires and this has been recognised in numerous bushfire enquires since the Stretton enquiry into the 1939 Victorian Bushfires. 

The amount of ‘green tape’ we have to go through to get a burn approved is beyond frustrating; says Peter Cannon. The VFFA is calling on the NSW State Government to reduce the amount of green tape involved in planning and conducting hazard reductions, so that our Volunteer Firefighters can get on with the job of conducting fire prevention works in the cooler months to prevent the inevitable summer bushfire disasters that are now becoming a more regular feature. 

The NSW State Government must also provide sufficient funding for bushfire hazard reduction works on a planned and sustained basis, including the creation of asset protection zones and upgrades of all fire trails in high bushfire risk areas. 

Remember that it’s far more cost effective, say around 66 to 100 times more cost efficient, to prevent wild fires through hazard reduction than it is to have reactionary fire response, which is what we have at the moment. With the great number of lost homes and decreasing property values through these wild fires, what then will the total fiscal amount be…….when it could have all been prevented by effective Hazard reduction!  

To increase the area treated by prescribed burning on bushfire prone lands from the current level of less than 1% per annum to a minimum of 5% per annum, as recommended by the Victorian Royal Commission and many leading bushfire experts.
