It was September 15th 1940 . An auspicious day. The Allies had faced enormous adversity In June 1940; the Wehrmacht had overcome most of Western Europe and Scandinavia.
At that time, the only major power standing in the way of a German-dominated Europe was the British Empire and the Commonwealth.
There had been dark days and days that were increasingly full of light from the daylight raids on London from the German attacks that were set to test the resolve of the British people.
While people around the world call for changes in names of sporting teams, ban words and promote slogans like “ Black Lives Matter “ I have to wonder when they will turn their nasty attention to words that were used with innocent affection and had no ill intent.
As a proud and Patriotic Citizen of Australia, I believe there are many here today who owe their lives to the heroic deeds of “ The Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels. “
If some leftist comes after that name, then they had better be ready for a fight.
Having ascended the British throne back in 1952, Queen Elizabeth II has had her fair share of meetings with foreign heads of state and other prominent figures. Over the years, she also had the opportunity to become acquainted with Russia, having both received the country’s dignitaries and even once paid a state visit herself.
Every day, news reporters, traders, and workers of all sorts the world over wake to do their work as they always have. Part of that requires that everyone pretend that life is normal, fixable, and more or less stable. All of this is temporary. It will come and go and really not be that bad.
Strange, isn’t it? Human beings have a hard time adjusting to disaster, in their decision-making and even in their mindset. Reporters have to do their jobs as they are trained. Traders too. Everyone does. They please their bosses. They don’t sound alarms. They don’t scream and yell as they probably should.
There are 3,000 architects along with investigators and leading forensic structural engineers that have proven 911 was caused by demolitions. See architects and engineers for truths site here.
They provided all the evidence to Barr and he remained silent and did NOTHING with the information. In April of 2020, Barr refused to release documents citing national security concerns.
Here is the extensive 4 year computer modeling data that brought down building 7. It wasn't fire and debris or exploding diesel, it was the near simultaneous destruction of every support column.
The report, models and 900GB of open data can all be found there.

On 11th September 2001, Americans were attacked. They were told a story that they were attacked by 19 Saudis who were part of a global network of terror. Just hours after the buildings collapsed, President George W. Bush announced who the guilty were.
Nobody seemed to wonder that in the space of a few hours the government had magically conducted an investigation and knew who was responsible, except for a few of us that were suspicious of the nature of the collapses and the videos showing Osama Bin Laden claiming responsibility.
Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God Queen of Australia and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth” has died. Given her advanced years, this has long been expected, yet it still seems incredible this woman who has been Australia’s queen for the duration of most Australians’ lives is no longer with us.
I miss my little Jack Russell. A member of my family suggested that I look for another little Jack. I cannot do it.
My heart is still too full of grief to even contemplate a new companion. Not to mention that I am 90 years old and I am not necessarily able to do all of the things that I used to do with my old friend who passed away a few short months ago.
My little Jack Russell aged with me. We grew old together. As his knees became a bit stiff, so did mine.
How could I possibly take care of another dog?
Perhaps today, more than ever, we are being confronted with a barrage of injustices that challenge our ability to cope. As individuals and as a society. So much is making us angry, frustrated and wanting to cry out with indignation " it's not fair! "
Yet the left are yelling " Off with their heads! "
One calamity after another.... like living through a constant barrage on our senses and our sense of fair play and justice. Many people around the world are at an emotional breaking point. Yet we, from the rational right, are not advocating violence. As the left do repeatedly.
In 1837, the young Victoria ascended to the throne and became the Queen of the most powerful Empire in the world : the British Empire.
In the long ago days when Britannia ruled the waves, it also ruled much of the globe. Naïve and inexperienced, she reached out to the then prime minister, Lord Melbourne – who became her most trusted ally and advisor.
However, one thing that is certain. Queen Victoria was no “slave owner”, “murderer” or “racist”, as so many uneducated leftist activists proclaim.
Under her reign, slavery ended. Workers rights were established. Education for the masses was created.

Today, we saw the passing of the old guard into the " new. "
A world where old traditions and decency have been put on the back bench and the new players are stepping up to the plate. People who have no sense of duty but only care about how " they " can help us. Which, in plain speak is " how we can help them "
For myself, The Queen is and was much like President Trump.
Surrounded by people who did not march to the same drum. People in governance who tried to bring them down.
Even members of families betrayed these two great people. No wonder they liked each other.
The lead photo shows the people who deserved our respect. Unlike others.
