    The Media Assault on my sanity today... Archived Message

    Posted by David Macilwain on May 21, 2019, 12:13 am

    Just reading Pamela Anderson's defence of JA and had this to say about this morning's main news bulletin; enough to drive one over the edge.
    There was the story of new moves by Sweden to get JA there, with no contrary information or comment. But this was somewhere between these items: Trump phoned our re-PM Morrison straight after his "unexpected" and "miracle" win, to discuss security issues, viz Iran, while Morrison had a meeting with the FM and military and intel to discuss the situation. (foreign affairs and policy was NOT discussed or even mentioned during the election campaign, even by the Greens - but of course they are ALL against Iran, and mostly pro-Israel. the only foreign affairs discussed was Eurovision in Zioland)
    2) Save the children warns about Syrian and Russian attacks on Idlib CITY, where rebel groups are confined.
    3)Lyse Doucet reports from Yemen where the worlds worst humanitarian.... the Houthis are blocking WFP aid from reaching certain areas...
    4)Google is acting to sabotage Huawei's phone market by stopping upgrades and access on new 5G phones.
    5)According to Iranian prisoner on Manus Island Behrouz Boochani, four men have attempted suicide since hearing of the failure of the Labor party to gain power. They saw it as one glimpse of hope in a black hole, where they will now stay to die.
    6)Russia/Putin connection to Austrian government crisis.

    Well what to write on today...??

    Perhaps I'll just meditate, or go and dig up some blackberries - which grow like Triffids in our pastures. In summer I flail at them with a slasher, and often gain inspiration and energy!
