An 'official' story was: 2750T on fertiliser, taken from a ship years ago and stored. ...Then someone was welding to stop people getting in and stealing bags of it.

The Tianjin and Beirut blasts have several phases. The mushroom cloud from Beirut is impressive. As was the shock wave.

Evidently the blast was experienced (felt) in Cyprus, 230km away.
 
Could be right, although couldn't see the shock wave at night and yes, more fire.
Agree on Israel not directly involved but I'd have a punt on the Saudi's.
They've spent a trillion dollars on weapons development with Israel.
 

I did the same. Whatever it was, it wasn't just your garden variety fertilizer.

The Israelis don't target innocent civilians who aren't threatening their nation.

This is internal and domestic; I suspect.

Didn’t intend to suggest that and I agree.
But, if reports suggest that this warehouse housed Iranian warheads and rocket fuel, they’re not losing with this event.
Iran have had a few ‘accidents’ recently.
 
A person has been shot in Brisbane by police, after an officer was stabbed in the face, with a knife.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-08...ter-officer-stabbed-in-face-brisbane/12527830
From the article:
Police have shot a man during a confrontation at a house in Mount Gravatt, on Brisbane's south side.
An officer was stabbed in the face, prompting his female colleague to open fire, hitting the suspect multiple times.


Like we have mentioned in another thread, it is o.k to talk about the victim of police brutality, but the police cop brutality and it's their job to face it.
It was only yesterday a police woman had her head bounced off the pavement, by a muppet.
It wont be long before there wont be anyone interested, in being a police person IMO.
 

Right now we have three in the close family, used to be more but two quit

Yes, I grew up in pretty rough mining towns and had my fair share of disagreements with the local cops, copped a thick ear for driving my scramble bike over the local golf club greens when it wasn't me, but the way it is now I feel sorry for them.
The level of drugs and violence has escalated off the scale, the politically correct brigade expect them to treat violent, drug induced, psychotic lunatics, with respect and talk nicely to them, maybe they should try it.
Maybe that's the answer, take some of these demonstration organisers along as first level responders, so they can show how it should be done.
There is no way I would be suggesting any of my kids or grandkids became a cop, if they want that route join the armed forces, at least there is a possibility they wont face action.

The old story though, 99% of cops are good people but it only needs a bad one and people lose respect and trust for all of them.

The judiciary seems to think it is OK to allow people to treat them with contempt then wonders why cops are leaving in droves or go on stress leave.
 
BREAKING NEWS

Jerry Falwell Jr. will take an indefinite leave of absence from his role as president and chancellor of Liberty University, at the board’s request.
Friday, August 7, 2020 5:35 PM EST

The statement gave no reason for the request, but the news comes days after Mr. Falwell posted, and then deleted, a photograph on Instagram with his pants unzipped and his arm around a young woman.

Under the Falwell family’s leadership, Liberty has grown in five decades from a modest Baptist college to an evangelical powerhouse with cash investments and endowments of nearly $2 billion, nearly 46,000 undergraduates and a campus that sprawls across Lynchburg and neighboring counties in Virginia.

We should forbid home chooks :some right wings rebels are selfishly risking the community lives under the pretext of eating healthy non vegan food.
To put things in perspective
https://www.aph.gov.au/About_Parlia...e Australian Management,000 and 44 000 deaths.
The risk of fatalities in Australia in an avian flu outbreak is between 2 to 4 times the numbers the current covid would kill if unchecked
Up to 40k death vs 15k to 20k for covid.
So do not sneeze after making your omelette...
 
Where do you get your 15K - 20k figure?
Death rate unchecked (if most people caught it) is well above that by an order of magnitude. (150-200k).
Also it is more contagious.
Also you can be inoculated from the flu.

I do think it is surprising the plague is back and someone has died from it. Easily treatable with antibiotics.

Israel and UAE strike historic deal to normalise relations
Israel has agreed to halt plans to annex parts of the West Bank sought by Palestinians, as part of a deal to engage full diplomatic relations with the United Arab Emirates.
  • Palestinian leaders have criticised the diplomatic normalisation deal as a betrayal of their cause
The agreement between Israel and the UAE was brokered by US President Donald Trump's administration.

The announcement makes the UAE the first Gulf Arab state to do so and only the third Arab nation to have active diplomatic ties to Israel.
