I don't often dabble seriously in what Australia thinks about global matters. Yes, I do mention the country from time to time - I am Australian, by choice rather than birth, after all, and have in fact spent more than half my life there. But I do tend to think about global matters all or... Continue Reading →
Anyone Who Acknowledges History AND That Soil is More Important Than Minerals, is a Hero in My Eyes.
Karin Kneissl, former FM of Austria, now Head of G.O.R.K.I. Centre, St Petersburg, is one such Hero. 'Europe turns into secondary player on international stage — ex-top Austrian diplomat' - TASS - Mar 1, 2025 Kneissl, reputedly a friend of Vladimir Putin (who needs no introduction, but if more people read about him, the world...

The West Divided Over Its Illegitimate Offspring Ukraine
I know it is going to sound a bit like a fairy tale, but... The US and its Allies, Father America and Mother 'Ally', who together turned an ill-conceived Brat into their very own adopted Hideous Monster child, have now split their relationship over an inevitable display of childish tantrum and juvenile rebellion by the...

'Scientists match Earth's ice age cycles with orbital shifts' - by University of California - Santa Barbara - Phys.org - Feb 27, 2025 This is actually quite a breakthrough of some importance and confirms to some extent both...

Symbolising Modern Climate Change Theory: Men in Lab-Coats Looking at Sky

And, in fact the US no longer needs to continue pouring money into the project since the damage for which the IPCC was originally envisaged in the first place has already been achieved - with much of the world now convinced (through...

Well, Here’s Something You Don’t See Everyday…
I published a post under this same title about an hour ago.

Appears I was right – The until recently thought impossible is now happening before our stunned eyes
Two days ago, in a sort of general discussion phase of my post: Russia’s New Weapon in the Information Wars, I happened to mention something gleaned from my general reading of the day's news (Tsk-Tsk, did you miss it?), raised as a question there...
