Outright Abuse!

 The headline: 

Greta Thunberg abused in Israeli prison – activists

The story: Here 

Pure abuse at it's most basic form, there can be no doubt about it.

I can only hope that poor, abused Israeli flag gets the counseling and comfort it now needs.

From the linked-to story: " “They dragged little Greta by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” he told the outlet."

I await the film showing "Poor Greta" having her near naked, almost certainly dead, body bundled into a jeep to be paraded around in triumph. 

Meanwhile it will be hard to pardon Israel for their action of inflicting 137 on an already suffering World. 

 Israel deports 137 Gaza aid flotilla activists

They should have left them, and their "aid" (ha ha) in Gaza. 

Horror yes, Shock ?????

 I have read today three different comments on blogs about the same instance.

 It seems some civil servants (in this case the Electoral Commission ones) have been promoting pro-apartheid propaganda of another public funded outfit, LGNZ.

Read about it here. 

All three comments attribute some sort of "shock/horror" to this action.

"Fair enough" you may think but, no, it ain't.

The "shock/horror" bit is as dishonest as the actions of those bodies.

This sort of tax-payer/rate-payer skullduggery happens now with such regularity that only a report detailing how civil servants did their job in a competent, non-political, unbiased way will now create genuine shock (although, as they're civil servants, the "horror" will remain).

Decolonisation

 "Decolonisation" is a word I keep seeing on my daily trawl through New Zealand websites.

The action of decolonisation, I admit, I have never read about.

Upon reflection I would like that to change.

I have decided therefore, subject to one condition, to support decolonisation (I like birds).

That condition is we use chronological order to implement decolonisation using a "first in-first out" process and demand those leaving use exactly the same form of transport they arrived in.

The sole alternative to be transportation to the 12 mile limit, upon which they are required to walk the rest of the way. 

I am amazed.

 The headline: 

Ryan Bridge: We need to break away from coalition governments

The story: I urge you to read it.

Mr Bridge usually, from what I see, produces short pieces on popular stories, mostly expounding on the latest fashionable view of those stories. My guess is that those pieces are added to the website by Bridge himself, or by a lackey assigned to the task without editorial supervision of any sort. No wonder then that this column appeared.

Yesterday (If Bridge's timeline is accurate) Government pollies turned up to a meeting with different, opposing views. They then proceeded to discuss those views, working out a compromise on the issue that could work for both parties.

Mr Bridge considers this to be a problem.

No doubt on Mr Bridge's planet the pollies would be banned from any meeting (probably by being imprisoned and shot), no compromise would ever be reached and the PM (Dictator) would advise the survivors of what the only acceptable opinion will be.

I am amazed: Not that this column appeared but that Mr Bridge found his way through his front door to the waiting transport that conveyed him to the NewstalkZB premises allowing him to produce such nonsense. His minders must be very good indeed. 

Locked Up!

 The headline: 

Increased reporting sees steep rise in prison assaults 

The problem: The headline is as wrong as the conclusion.

I seriously hope that the sharp increase in prison assaults is because more slime are being locked up for their sins and subsequently being rightfully punished for those sins but increased reporting of prison assaults means only that more are being reported.

Power to the ??????

 PM Luxon, temporary Dictator of New Zealand, has announced that there is an energy crisis coming to, if not starting in, New Zealand.

To combat this crisis he will give our money to proven wastrel existing electricity suppliers plus create an LNG import entity using, of course, more of our money.

No mention though, of any move to create facilities for the only sensible, long term, reliable energy producer available today.

I refer to nuclear  - a clean, reliable and safe (as long as current politicians are kept well away from the design and build process) source.

What's the bet Lake Onslow is resurrected shortly, to supplement these imports? 

Racist Supports Murderers; Says So.

 The headline: 

'Shame on us': Ex-Race Relations Commissioner slams Govt's 'torturous logic' on Palestine

The headline should have been:

Racist Jaarpie Upset NZ Not Supportive of Murderous Scum.

Unsurprising really that the one who turned the Race Relations Commissioner job into a support base for racists now also supports terrorist murderers push for legitimacy.
