Once upon a time there was a female brain cell which, by mistake, happened to end up in a man’s head.
She looked around nervously because it was all empty and quiet.
“Hello?” she cried, but no answer.
“Is there anyone here?” she cried a little louder, but still no answer.
Now the female brain cell started to feel alone and scared and yelled at the top of her voice,
“HELLO, IS THERE ANYONE HERE?”
Then she heard a faint voice from far, far away…………………
…….
…………
“We’re down here …” 😁😁
Imagine the turmoil a man’s brain cell would find if it were sent for that kind of torture.
Reason Number 1091 why the taxpayer shouldn’t fund these things.
TV producer Alex Breingan faces 33 fraud and forgery charges relating to $14.5 million of public and private money – he is expected to appear via video link in court next month.
Fraud-accused television producer Alex Breingan has broken his silence from Los Angeles, denying 33 Serious Fraud Office charges laid against him, and describing the collapse of his career in New Zealand as “devastating”.
And he says: “I have not fled New Zealand to avoid these proceedings and am engaging with the court process.”
Breingan’s statement comes as the NZ Herald confirms there is a warrant for his arrest and as new details emerge about the fraud and forgery charges involving an alleged $14.5 million of public funding and private financing of at least 12 TV productions.

Never heard of him but being aT.V person he’s most likely an entitled lefty so we can probably assume he’s guilty as sin.

This raises the question, is or can a stone be considered a deadly weapon.
Was the intention to throw it, to hit the person, and only incidentally hit the truck.
To consider that the reload, the intention was misfired went put under pressure.
It does seem that probably a stone was thrown that hit the truck even prior to the video taken in the action.?

Over 10 years ago I knew people who managed 12,000 cow herds in Saudi Arabia and told me there are larger.
2013 …. [Saidi Arabia] capital Riyadh, houses one of its largest herds of 67,000.
https://edition.cnn.com/2013/12/18/world/meast/milking-the-desert-saudi-dairy-farms#
One of the reasons is that some Philippinos who decided to get out of Saudi Arabia plus the the concept of Christians working in Saudi made it difficult with visas, length of contracts etc..
Then the issue of water extraction in Saudi so now it is a dying issue.
Note the shift ot Ethopia, to the head waters of one of the Niles.

Bit of a pity really. Keeping the coonists, including the ching chongs, out or under control is the big thing. They are going the same way as Buso Fatso and some of the other countries. building up their own resources.

The Uproar about War Isn’t About Iran; It’s About Killing Trump and MAGA
https://youtu.be/YPCDRP5b1K8
16 minutes : July 12, 2026 : Promethian Updates
Barbara Boyd argues Trump is pursuing peace talks with Iran while warning the ceasefire is over and the U.S. will respond with crushing force if Iran interferes in the Strait of Hormuz.
She says media claims that Trump is a warmonger are false, citing Trump’s regional “Board of Peace,”
Iran’s long-term proxy war through Hamas and Hezbollah, and Iran’s uranium enrichment and nuclear ambitions.
The script describes U.S. strikes—Operation Midnight Hammer (2025) and Operation Epic Fury (Feb. 2026)—and claims these actions weakened Iran,
shifted Gulf states against Tehran,
enabled changes in Gaza and Lebanon,
and collapsed Iran’s economy,
leaving Hormuz harassment as its main lever.
Boyd frames the conflict as part of a broader struggle against a *London-centered “petrodollar” energy order and Net Zero policies, highlighting Trump’s energy expansion, economic metrics, and new nuclear and fusion initiatives as the future economic strategy.
London = financial, insurance, cabals of WEF, the Davos set, International Rules of Laws, World-Bank, IMF, UN., etc., that all inter-connect.

Some great comments, with more facts & memes.
To also note that the UN IPCC this year has admitted that a number of their worst case scenarios are implausible.
Yet all the Banks, Insurance companies, Governments have acted, legislated on those implausible scenarios, & now the retraction is being suppressed, shadow banned etc..
So why is the system still working on collecting taxes, levies on this now demonstability in what ever guise of carbon taxes, net zero Carbon, etc.. of being baseless, totally implausible.
Blackroc and others.
Luxon responds to media about the $20 Billion US commitment he made to Modhi after he pulled his pants down in his desperate bid to attract indian voters.
The stammering piglet jibbers “I’ve spoken to a NZ company today that is moving manufacturing to India!, and that’s good news!”
He also lies that India has an agreement to invest and equal amount into NZ – that is total bullshit.
No where in that FTA does it state that they are required to invest one red cent. The clause commits us to invest NZD$33 BILLION or India can enact a claw back claws – and that means NZ not only lose the meagre tarrif concessions but has to pay back whatever concessions we have received.
The NZ govt has a website up dedicated to assisting NZ business to offshore to India. It’s the most despicable thing I have ever seen.
The down tick is not for you Ed!!
Who apart from Winston has read this FTA agreement? It’s OBVIOUS they haven’t. No one could be that stupid. 🤤
you clearly don’t know many politicians then do you?
A man brutally murdered a vulnerable elderly 78 year old woman in her own home.
She was left on the floor covered in blood.
We were immediately told the suspect was a white British national this was broadcast nationally.
We were told that it wasn’t a terrorist incident and there’s no links to it being politically motivated.
A “white male” man was arrested, then let free the following day without charge.
The next day we are told there is a new suspect.
Police have announced they have footage of the individual.
Police refuse to give any description of the suspect or any motives.
The police have decided to not release the CCTV.
I don’t care what anyone says, but this absolutely STINKS of a cover up.

This famous principle was notably enshrined in Article 12 of the 1936 USSR Constitution, which stated:
It first appeared in early Soviet law in Article 18 of the 1918 RSFSR Constitution, which stated that the republic considers work the duty of every citizen and proclaims as its motto: “He shall not eat who does not work.”
While adopted by Vladimir Lenin and later championed by Joseph Stalin, the phrase itself is a biblical aphorism originating from the New Testament (2 Thessalonians 3:10)
One of those, “Do as I say, not as I do”, kind of deals by the sound of it, because Marx was a complete layabout and grifter.
The various forms of Socialism, Fascism, to Communism.
Sure they may merciless to each other, but it is always,
It is not the issue, It is Long may the Revolution continue, doing what-ever it takes.
With fearful menace the state demands that the individual give up his friends,
abandon his lovers,
renounce his beliefs and
assume new, prescribed ones.
He must use a new form of greeting,
eat and drink in ways he does not fancy,
employ his leisure in occupations he abhors,
make himself available for activities he despises,
and deny his past and his individuality.
For all this, he must constantly express extreme enthusiasm and gratitude.”
Defying Hitler: A Memoir by Sebastian Haffner
Yes Sebasian Haffner survived long after the war.
Died 2 January 1999 (age 91 years),
Written in 1939 and unpublished until 2000, Sebastian Haffner’s memoir of the rise of Nazism in Germany offers a unique portrait of the lives of ordinary German citizens between the wars.
Covering 1907 to 1933, his eyewitness account provides a portrait of a country in constant flux: from the rise of the First Corps, the right-wing voluntary military force set up in 1918 to suppress Communism and precursor to the Nazi storm troopers, to the Hitler Youth movement; from the apocalyptic year of 1923 when inflation crippled the country to Hitler’s rise to power.
This fascinating personal history elucidates how the average German grappled with a rapidly changing society, while chronicling day-to-day changes in attitudes, beliefs, politics, and prejudices.

Graham, whose birthday was Thursday, recently returned from Ukraine after meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Graham told reporters in Kyiv on Friday that a bipartisan group of senators had reached an agreement with the White House to impose new sanctions on Russia in an effort to end that country’s long-running war with Ukraine.

That comes on top of McConnell being non compos mentis but not yet dead. Won’t die until the 3rd of August.
So a win for Russia. Great stuff.
Never talk ill of the dead,

He was a scumbag while he was alive. Being dead doesn’t change that.

All we need now is for Trump to quit NATO, quit the UN and toss them out of the states. Tell the europhiles to pay their own military costs.
The arabs are now set against one another, so that shit fight will be ongoing until nasties are done in with Israel’s help.
Why Mike Smith’s court case should go ahead
The government’s attempt to shut down Mike Smith’s case against large emitters of greenhouse gases is progressing swiftly through parliament.
The Climate Change Response (Tort Liability) Amendment Bill is now before the Justice Select Committee, and the period for public submissions closes tomorrow morning, after being open for just 10 days.
If passed, the bill would stop civil tort claims against greenhouse gas emitters for climate-related harm. Torts are part of the common law, meaning they are developed over time by the courts to address wrongful actions.
A successful tort claim in this context could have allowed a person or community that has suffered harm or damage from climate change, for example, from flooding and erosion, to hold emitters accountable.
But the government wants to close off that option, as well as put an end to Mike Smith’s ongoing case against Fonterra and others.
Here, Laura MacKay from Lawyers for Climate Action, lays out the background to the proposed bill, the issues it raises, and how to make a submission.
Mike Smith’s claim is against six New Zealand corporate defendants — Fonterra, Genesis Energy, Dairy Holdings, New Zealand Steel, Z Energy and BT Mining.
The Supreme Court says it is “beyond question” that these defendants are either very substantial emitters of greenhouse gases or very substantial suppliers of fossil fuels — together they make up a third of New Zealanders’ emissions.
Smith’s case against these companies puts forward two arguments, which are both based in tort law.

It is like understanding some of the changes in Turkey, where NZ has had an intense relationship with,
Reading into Kemal Ataturk and his views on Islam, to gain more secularisms to where Erdogan now seems to understand that there is no moderate islam, as islam is islam.
I mention Kemal Ataturk, but bear in mind with all his secularity was quite ok with what was done in Armenia & its peoples.
So was Hitler about the Armenian genocide:— AI :—
Despite the debate over the exact quote, many historians point out that Hitler was well aware of the Armenian genocide.
His early inner circle included individuals like Max Erwin von Scheubner-Richter, who had been a German vice-consul in Ottoman Turkey during the 1915 massacres and personally witnessed the events. [1, 2]
Scholars generally agree that the Young Turk regime’s unpunished elimination of the Armenians served as a grim blueprint for the Nazis.
It proved to Hitler that a powerful government could completely erase a minority population with very little risk of international consequences
Then this interview where Carlson Tucker seemed to take on board the kindliness of Turkey.
Not knowing any history like the Janissaries, stolen young boys from the Christian villages in the Balkans.
….. The Tucker/Hall segment isn’t harmless historical discussion. It whitewashes 1,400 years of Islamic conquest, dhimmitude, and supremacism while framing Israel as the real problem for Christians. ….
….. History is clear: Islamic rule never produced equality. It produced subordination, often enforced with violence. Pretending otherwise doesn’t help Christians in the Middle East or the West.
It only aids those who want to repeat past patterns. ….

Which way we turn, it is a brutal dog eat dog world.
In part I would think so.
The other part is that many University Chairs, Foundations in universities have been set up & with actual well financed from the Middle East, to cast with finesse to their incessant version of just how culturally kind was Mohammad.
Just as the well established Confucius Institutes I have been set up in New Zealand universities, all to guide us in cultural understandings.
Like I know in the late 1950’s the World Jury found against China on Tibet, then also did again in more recent times.
A double shooo in as religion, with doubled acclamation must fall, as it can not be perfect, and of course the state is perfect, and so is rightfully now doubly universally despised.
That is why one of the reasons is that China is to be more trusted than the USA,
If any one pushes back, then it is so easy to add victimhood to gain more empathy.
