some clown with throat cancer from HillsongChurch (the biggest Christian Church in Australia) is currently sprouting his talk...oh for god's sake, rest your throat, you poor bastard. i will give you money if you just stop talking. its really really spooky. you are sick, you idiot.you have 4 years at most. stop preaching. people don't need preachers, people need god. you are not god. go home.


Back to watching world TV News.... CNN, very biased pro Clinton, and Fox, very biased pro Trump. Watching the ABC Australian News and SBS and the Australian Government and Opposition, very biased pro Clinton. Watching China TV: just good analysis, watching Al Jazeera, pro Clinton. Watching BBC: pro Clinton, watching Russian TV pro Trump. The American election will be won by whoever can garner the support of white American disenfranchised dissatisfied depressed out of work men and get them to the polls...and they DO watch Fox...and they haven't ever voted before. Its a shoe-in. Mr Murdoch backed the winner again.


anyway, no big deal, the Middle East...if peace was most useful to the real world, it would have happened there years ago. No one likes the arabs, no one likes the jews. They are the same people anyway. The only reason war persists is that this area isn't important anymore to the real world and real politiks. The only reason that war doesn't happen around North Korea is because North Asia is actually really really important for all of us. In terms of war and peace and the future of the species, it is only North Asia that can mean anything at all. The Middle East doesn't have the weapons, the numbers, in terms of human density, the hatreds, the remarkable mineral and human wealth,the productivity dividends, or the real potential for humans as a species any more. The Middle East had their brief time being Something to worry about. Who cares if Israel or Palestine don't exist? Who cares if America and the UK destroy Iraq or Syria? It can't matter. A big war in the Middle east is do-able, a war in Europe is do-able, a war in South East Asia is do-able, a big war within America is do-able...a big war in Australia is do-able...but a big war in North Asia cannot be ever allowed to happen...that would be true human insanity. We are not as insane as we think. North Asia is our Real Human Common Future...and that is why War is avoided there at all cost...and it always will be. North Korea can continue to be the world's third worst human government (ISIS, SAUDI, DPRK), the Russians, the Chinese and the Americans can tool about with all their fancy weapons as much as they wish...but a war there would kill us all and no -one will ever allow that to happen. As for Palestine and as for Israel...they will both thankfully pass into history as they should...with little harm done to the positive good human collective at all.

I guess, for me, the nature of spruiking advertising politicians in democracies around the world in the past decades is that they are fearful and furtive... and they only get votes if they are fearful and furtive and drive home the message that 'you need me, and only me, and you need my bizarre ideology'. This is simply madness. Magnificent megalomaniac narcissism. We don't need them at all. The world is okay, as okay as it ever has been. It is as okay as it ever will be in our lifetimes and well beyond. All that is good on earth lies in its right measure, as always. The world is not actually on fire from Morocco to the Phillipines... Their statements and fears is just 'advertising for profit'. The best way to deal with the insanity at the real core of democracy is this: Have a vote. The person who wins, becomes the national leader. The person who comes second becomes the deputy leader, and then on you go through the ranks of ministers etc based upon the voting reality of the people, not the parties. Do it all again 5 years later. The notion that there are only 2 ideological 'realities' left and right...is an illusion. It is best not to pander to illusion, but rather to get the most voted for people into reasonable jobs to do what they promised to do, and then vote them out if they don't do it. So, in my way of thinking, if Hillary is to be President, then Donald is Vice President...apparently they are voted for because they love and are best for their country...whats wrong with that?...and the same all down the line in terms of voting numbers. That's democracy. We haven't seen real democracy yet in this world, but we will see it one day.

About LAOS: The land mass is much smaller than England (thus excluding Scotland and Wales). It is a small, poor, landlocked nation. The capital city, Vientiane, has about 750,000 people who are basically terrified to go into their own small towns and forests. The population is 6.6 million. The population density is 29 Laotians per square kilometre. The US dropped 240 million cluster bombs on Laos (American estimate). Yes, 240 million cluster bombs. 80 million unexploded US bombs still exist in Laos, in towns, fields, and forests. Yes, 80 million large and quite vicious unexploded US bombs. 90% of the country, due to rough terrain, poisoned water and unexploded ordnance is not arable. The US President has pledged (although not given) $90US million to Laos to 'help them' clear the bombs, as a moral thing, as long as Laos forms and maintains a trade partnership with the US that excludes their neighbour, China...who has never bombed them. So that's about a bit over a dollar per large unexploded bomb. 'Here, Jimbo, here's ten bucks...go explode ten of 'em...just run about...and look after yourself. We're on your side. We care about you.' I can imagine the gratitude of the Laotians. Some may try to smile but unfortunately the Agent Orange and other chemical weapons deep in their genetics now means the kids, and their kids, need a hell of a lot of facial surgery to even wince. (See Operation Smile- Laos).That's after the USA prevented any form of medical or financial aid to the destroyed country for 20 years as a punishment on Laos for being geographically situated next to Vietnam. It is such a poor country following America's bombing that it couldn't afford to build an airport or roads in the capital Vientiane. The Dutch and the Japanese built them for them out of pure kindness. President Obama landed his big impressive planes at that airport yesterday, and pledged his amazing heart-felt offer.... Thanks America! Go Fuck Yourself! Vientiane is a lovely city, a war wracked old French Colonial Outpost. They make very good baguettes and very good Lao thick coffee. They also make many thousands of genetically stuffed new babies every year, thanks to America. Laos has become a bit of a tourist spot for Western international youth, having full moon parties, getting stoned and eating hamburgers in the villages where the Laotians themselves can only afford to eat rats.
