MH370 - Ditched Into The Indian Ocean As Revenge Against Razak Najib

CALCULATED ACT APPEARS REVENGE AGAINST NAJIB'S GOVERMENT
Tonights 60 Minutes program in Australia provided compelling evidence that Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 was ditched into the Southern Ocean under full control of one pilot.
Uniform water damage on the underside of a Boeing 777 flaperon discovered on Reunion Island in the West Indian Ocean has identical damage to a 777 wing flap found in Tanzania in June 2016.
These components can only be manually lowered during flight. That means human involvement in the ditching of the aircraft, and brings us back to the mental state of the pilots of the missing aircraft. Exactly where we were 2 years ago.

Pilot Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah was politically active, a supporter of opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim and was in the courtroom as Anwar was sentenced to 5 years prison on false charges by corrupt dictator Najib Razak. He ditched the aircraft later that night, only hours after the sentencing of Anwar.
Data recovered from Shah's home flight simulator shows an identical flight path to the Southern Indian Ocean. Shah had deleted this flight data from his simulator. This has been known since 2014 and with the new evidence appears to implicate the older pilot.
Shah's daughter said her father was 'lost and disturbed' and his marriage was on the rocks.
It could easily have been the orchestrated trial of Anwar that pushed Zaharie Shah over the edge. What other explanation is there at the present time? None.
Malaysian Airlines was majority owned by the Malaysian Government in 2014 and that government is run by one of the most corrupt dictators on Earth - Razak Najib.
Also in 2014 we read that copilot Fariq Abdul Hamid tried to make a 'desperate call' just before the plane vanished.
If you put together what was known in 2014 with what is known now, it's hard not to come to the conclusion this was the work of one pilot. This could well be a 'case closed' for the ill-fated flight MH370.

George Brandis - Paid Not To Know About Government Child Abuse

He's Australia's attorney general and he has access to the end points of every phone call, SMS and email in Australia but he doesn't know what his own party is doing to children in detention?
His own party? Yes, the Country Liberal Party of the Northern Territory is a sub-set of the Liberal Party. Look at the Indigenous Affairs Minister in Brandis's own government? (see story below) The Northern Territory is not a state so the Commonwealth has much more influence in it's affairs.

Nigel Scullion's Pathetic Record As Indigenous Affairs Minister

The 'Australia's Shame ' 4Corners program on Monday July 25 brings into focus the Minister for Indigenous Affairs Nigel Scullion. Scullion is a member of the Country Liberal Party who currently run the Northern Territory. Aboriginal incarceration rates are consistently high and have skyrocketed under Scullions watch. The juvenile justice system locks-up 26 times more indigenous than non indigenous children. Scullion has to go.

Scullion claims he has no control over rates of aboriginal incarceration but we ask 'why the hell is he collecting a fat paypacket as indigenous affairs minister if he can't help the Aboriginal people?'
British-born Scullion is currently Australian Indigenous Affairs Minister and has been since 2013 under both the Abbott and Turnbull governments. Having a Brit run indigenous affairs must be highly insulting to every Australian indigenous person given the Brits carried-out almost total genocides of Aboriginals in many parts of Australia such as Tasmania. Isn't this the same as having a counter terrorism unit run by a Moslem?  Likewise another 'Royal Commission'. Why would Turnbull hold an inquiry into his own corrupt, brutal party of sadists?It's time to get rid of conservative imported seat-warmers like Nigel Scullion.
Didn't know, didn't ask: Indigenous Affairs Minister Nigel Scullion's startling admission 
Scullion claims the detention centre footage had not 'piqued' his interest and he had more important things to do than watch the footage - like dining out.

Census 2016: Australians who don't complete form over privacy concerns face fines

Australian Bureau of Statistics fear boycott of census as privacy advocates say decision to retain names and addresses puts personal information at risk
From the Guardian

Australians who refuse to answer questions in the 2016 census over privacy concerns surrounding the retention of their personal information could face heavy fines.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) announced in December 2015 it was planning to retain name and address information in the upcoming census in order to create a “richer and dynamic statistical picture” of Australia.
2016 is census year! But you can stick your census in your ear, you won't get any data here
Brenda the Civil Disobedience Penguin is worried. Just because we have given away so much of our privacy already doesn’t mean we should keep giving it away

But privacy and civil rights groups have criticised the decision, which they say constitutes a serious invasion of privacy and put Australians’ personal information at risk. The retention of name and address information – coupled with the other personal information Australians disclose in the census – provides an enormous amount of personal information. Previously, name and address information was removed from the census data.

Some groups, including the Australian Privacy Foundation, have said the ABS failed to explain the changes and called on it to reverse the decision. The foundation’s vice chair, Kat Lane, said Australians would be “alarmed by this sneaky change to the way their personal information will now be stored”.

The blowback from civil liberties groups has alarmed the ABS and raised concerns about the potential for a boycott of the census on privacy grounds.

But failing or refusing to answer a question in the census can be an offence under the Census and Statistics Act 1905 if a person receives a direction from the ABS to complete a form.

Although the maximum penalty is one penalty unit – a $180 fine – a person could receive a series of directions relating to the completion of a single census form, potentially significantly increasing the fine.

A spokesman for the ABS said: “Australians traditionally show strong support for the census and the need to enforce penalties is rare. The ABS prefers to seek the willing cooperation of respondents. However, it is sometimes necessary to use the legislative provisions, in order to maintain the integrity of ABS statistics.

“For the 2011 census, there were 1,282 notices of direction issued and 78 prosecution actions approved.”

One of the concerns raised over the retention of the additional personal information was how securely that information would be stored.

The ABS said it conducted a privacy impact assessment but the Australian Privacy Foundation said it was a flawed process and was not an independent assessment.

The ABS has also addressed the question of whether the information could be provided to third parties.

While the government could make regulations at some future point to allow information from the census to be disclosed to a third party, a section in the act prevents information of a “personal or domestic” nature if it is likely to enable identification of a person.

A spokesman for the ABS said the section “precludes the minister from creating an instrument that authorises the disclosure of personal information and/or identifiers, and precludes the ABS from sharing any form of personal information with any other government department, tribunal or law court”.

While the proposal initially appeared to be to collect the names and addresses for an indefinite period, the Australian statistician David Kalisch wrote in Fairfax Media on Friday that he planned to permanently destroy the name and address information by August 2020.

He wrote that the names and addresses would be removed from other personal household information and stored in a separate database in order to provide an additional safeguard.

The date of the census is 9 August.

MH370 - We've Been Looking In the Wrong Place WTF?

Today we read the Dutch company hired to locate the wreck of Malaysian Airlines MH370 admits they have been looking in the wrong place.

"MH370 disappeared in March 2014 with 239 passengers and crew aboard en route to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur. Searchers led by engineering group Fugro have been combing an area roughly the size of Greece for two years."
It appears the aircraft may have been gliding for up to another 200kms, possibly under human control.
This raises some interesting questions about the role Australia played in what is a Malaysian domestic issue. Australia is spending well over $1billion a year on so called 'intelligence' yet have failed to notice that Malaysian PM Razak Najib is a thief and murderer who is leading one of the most corrupt nations on Earth. Sleepwalking Australian politicians from both major parties carry-on as if Malaysian corruption is completely normal. Malaysia is not a normal country and the Australians onboard MH370 should have been warned how pathetic Malaysia is. The Malaysian government was the majority owner of Malaysian Airlines when MH370 disappeared.
Of the 239 passengers aboard the doomed flight only 6 were Australians. That's 2.5% of the passenger list yet Australia under Tony Abbott became a key player and financier of the search. So far the search has cost $180million making it the most expensive in aviation history.

The Australian government travel advisor Smarttraveller currently warns of 'piracy' in the Singapore Straits, blissfully unaware that the Malaysian government is itself involved in the massive piracy of the entire country's wealth. Just Google '1MDB' to see what we mean? So much for Australia even having an 'intelligence community' if they are so out of touch with reality they are enticing Australian travelers to their deaths on board tin-pot airlines like Malaysia's. Three months ago Byron Bailey at the Australian predicted the plane had overshot the search area. He also invoked corruption in Malaysia. In his words 'Perhaps the ­Malaysian Prime Minister could donate some of the $US681 million ($884m) mysteriously ­deposited into his personal bank accounts to the cost of the search for which the Australian taxpayer is funding an excessive amount?'
Happy Birthday Razak Najib.
The fact is Najib and his racially-based Malay UMNO Party has countless domestic and foreign enemies. Any one of scores of groups or individuals have it in for the thieving cartel running Malaysia and especially Sarawak. Najib was closely implicated in the brutal murder of Mongolian translator Shaariibuugiin Altantuyaa who was blown to pieces with C4 plastic explosives while pregnant.
Some of Najib's most dubious work involves massive kickbacks from Saudi Arabia involving the alleged control of ISIS. This is international organised crime at it's worst and the truth is probably that the Saudis and Najib are funding ISIS. Saturday 23 is Najib's birthday. Hopefully he won't have too many more to come.
To Australian intelligence organisations. Stop protecting corrupt operatives like Taib and Najib and work out who is really funding Islamic State.

Why isn't the erosion of our democracy an election issue?

Greg Barns at Independent Australia
Criminal lawyer and spokesperson for the Australian Lawyers Alliance, Greg Barns, looks at the erosion of rights over the course of the past three years by the ALP and Coalition and argues this should be an election issue.

It has had little or no coverage in this interminably long Federal election campaign, but the erosion of human rights – and therefore our democracy – in Australia should be an issue discussed as we head to the polls in a few days.

Over the course of the last three years, the Coalition parties supported generally by the ALP, have eroded the right to freedom of speech, undermined the right to privacy and increased the capacity of security agencies and the bureaucracy to operate without proper independent scrutiny. All of these measures have been legislated in the name of the so-called "War on Terror" or what is termed “border control”.

On their own, each of these measures has provoked disquiet, and even outrage, among those committed to human rights and the rule of law, but when examined cumulatively the assault on democracy since 2013 has been breathtaking.

It is critical that we ask ourselves this question before we cast a vote on July 2: What other draconian measures has the ALP and the Coalition got in mind to legislate over the next three years, and which of those parties and individuals running for Senate spots will support them?

It is worth recalling each of the anti-democratic measures that now sit on the statute books in this country courtesy of the majority of the politicians we elected in 2013.

First, there are the amendments made to the Commonwealth Crimes Act in 2014, which allow ASIO to label an operation a “controlled operation”. This means ASIO agents can commit criminal offences and civil wrongs such as burglaries, assaults, kidnapping and frauds knowing they will not be prosecuted. Only murder, sexual assaults and serious assaults are out of bounds.

These operations are secret, so that any person, including the media, who reveals anything about such an operation faces up to five or ten years imprisonment depending on whether they acted recklessly or intentionally. Only some Independents in the Senate – such as Nick Xenophon, David Leyonhjelm and John Madigan – voted with the Greens to oppose this law.

Similarly, being sheltered from scrutiny through the criminalisation of free speech are those who run the notorious immigration detention centre system. The Australian Border Force Act was passed last year with only the Greens opposing it. As we know this law makes it a criminal offence for any person working in immigration detention, with few exceptions, to reveal what happens in these awful places.

Even doctors are not protected, as revelations about the Australian Federal Police spying on Peter Young, a prominent doctor who worked in the centres and who has publicly aired his disquiet over mistreatment of asylum seekers, shows.

Then there was the extraordinary law that allows the Federal government to know whom it is each and everyone of us communicates with by phone, email, Facebook and any other electronic format over the previous 2 years. The Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Amendment (Data Retention) Act was supported by the ALP but not by most of the Independents and Greens.

Stripping Australians as young as 14 of citizenship is now possible, courtesy of our politicians. And worse than that it is done by a minister, not through an independent and rigorous court process. The opposition to this Bill came from Independents and Greens, with even the so called left of the ALP too frightened to stand up for a fundamental tenet of the rule of law in a democracy — that only independent courts should be allowed to decide grave questions such as citizenship.

IFA President Rob de Fegely Appointed Chair of Forestry Tasmania

de Fegely

Logging industry insider and President of the Institute of Foresters Australia (IFA) Rob de Fegely has been appointed chair of Forestry Tasmania (FT). The appointment will be a continuation of the cronyism at FT and also the systematic environmental degradation of Tasmania. FT is a free-form, quasi-government organisation that runs at a loss. FT works to 'sterilise' Tasmania's forests with slash and burn log extraction to supply the Asian Timber Mafia-controlled Ta Ann with immature 'peeler billets'. They also used the worlds best carbon storing forests as wood chips for the insatiable Asian pulp market. De Fegely will continue the corrupt relationships while striving to green wash FT with FSC certification. There could even be 'inducements' for de Fegely from the Taib cartel if he pulls-off full FSC for the Sarawak palm oil crooks. Rob is in creepy company on the IFA board with ex-Forestry Tasmania ancient tree-killer Bob Gordon and his right hand man Hans Drielsma keeping him company.
The IFA's main crime in 2016 is the destruction of the Great Barrier Reef by changing Australia's climate. There is no difference between carbon released from trees and from coal which is just fossilised trees. The IFA were asked to explain the difference but failed to respond.

From the Mercury Forestry Tasmania has a new chairman, Forestry Minister Peter Gutwein announced this morning.
Almost six months after former Forestry boss Bob Annels stepped down, Mr Gutwein has announced Rob de Fegely has assumed the role.
“Mr de Fegely has 36 years of experience in the Australian forestry industry,” Mr Gutwein said.
“Mr de Fegely is a co-chair of the Commonwealth Government’s Forest Industry Advisory Council and national president of the Institute of Foresters of Australia, a past director of VicForests, and was previously the non-executive chairman of Cape York Timber.
“Mr de Fegely is a registered professional forester and has a bachelor of science degree from the Australian National University and master of science (forest business management) from Aberdeen University in the UK.”
Mr Gutwein said Mr de Fegely had extensive project and consulting experience with both Government and corporate clients throughout Australia and New Zealand and had travelled and worked extensively throughout Asia and North America.

Why Does Australia Support Gross Corruption In Malaysia?

How long before Australia wakes-up to the fact we are bankrolling the most corrupt people on Earth?
Case in point: Sarawak potentate Taib Mahumud, educated under the Colombo plan at taxpayers expense. Today Australian taxpayers still subsidise timber for one of Taib's proxy ventures called Ta Ann Tasmania. This company pays no tax but still gets handouts from the Australian and Tasmanian governments.
Take a look at how the Sarawak Mafia live?

This was the nice little prezzie that Taib bought his young wife to celebrate their 5th anniversary and his 80th birthday last weekend.

Blatant Political Censorship At The Launceston Examiner

The 'leftist' tag doesn't apply to Fairfax newspaper the Launceston Examiner. The small town rag is blatantly pro-Liberal and appears to be a mouthpiece for Premier Hodgman's spin doctor Martin Gilmour, years after Gilmour left the Examiner. We are used to overt conservative favoritism from the 'Geriatric Media' at News Ltd, where Rupert treats the Australian public like play dough.
Take the Examiner's handling of the Hodgman government's 'workplace invasion' laws? These laws have failed to even reach court. It appears the laws are unusable because they are so poorly-worded. This went unnoticed by mental dwarf Will Hodgman and his team of head nodders when they passed the laws like automatons.

The small-town tire-spinners at the Examiner had about 4 attempts at publishing this story, even opening it to comments - which they then refused to publish.
Check this out?

It's a screen grab from a comment the micro-brained Examiner failed to publish - for no reason. They solicit comments but are too gutless to publish them.
Which is why Inside Tasmania exists. These mentally crippled media manipulators have been holding Tasmania back for too many decades. They need a paradigm shift to bring Tasmania into the 21st Century. Murdoch has created a country with a backwards government buried under a mountain of debt they can never repay, and for the Fairfax media to join this nation-crippling agenda is a crime against journalism and all Australians.

Cape Grim Reveals Global CO2 Has Reached The Point Of No Return

Paul Barry from Media Watch thinks this story should have been covered-up.
Get stuffed lost soul Paul Barry. This is our planet, not yours.
By Peter Hannam at SMH
Within the next couple of weeks, a remote part of north-western Tasmania is likely to grab headlines around the world as a major climate change marker is passed.
The aptly named Cape Grim monitoring site jointly run by CSIRO and the Bureau of Meteorology will witness the first baseline reading of 400 parts per million (ppm) of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, researchers predict.
"Once it's over [400 ppm], it won't go back," said Paul Fraser, dubbed by CSIRO as the Air Man of Cape Grim, and now a retired CSIRO fellow. "It could be within 10 days."

The most recent reading on May 6 was 399.9 ppm, according to readings compiled by the CSIRO team led by Paul Krummel that strip out influences from land, including cities such as Melbourne to the north. (See chart below, with the red line showing the baseline CO2.)
Political heat
The approaching global CO2 threshold comes as climate change looks like becoming one of the key issues in Australia's election campaign.
The Turnbull government has made clear it will oppose Labor's proposals for an emissions trading scheme that will again put a price on carbon pollution.
New data out on Tuesday show that emissions from the country's main electricity grid covering the eastern states have risen 5.7 per cent - or 8.7 million tonnes - in the year to April compared with the final 12 months of the carbon tax that the Abbott government scrapped in July 2014, according to energy consultants Pitt & Sherry.

The share of coal in the National Electricity Market has risen to 76.2 per cent - its highest level since September 2012 - from 72.3 per cent during the period since June 2014, the consultants' latest Cedex report said.

Mark Butler, Labor's shadow environment minister, said the Cape Grim landmark reading was "deeply concerning".

"While the Coalition fights about whether or not the science of climate change is real, pollution is rising. And it's rising on their watch," Mr Butler said.

Greens deputy leader Larissa Waters said the Cape Grim result "should act as a global wake-up call and must shock both Australian big political parties out of their blind coal-obsession which is literally cooking our planet and our Great Barrier Reef".

"Our atmosphere cannot take any new coal mines – both the old parties must stop approving them and revoke their approval of the Adani coal mine [in Queensland] at both the state and federal level," Senator Waters said.

A spokesman for Environment Minister Greg Hunt defended the government's climate policies."There is now absolutely no doubt that we will beat our 2020 target" of cutting 2000-level emissions by 5 per cent by then, the spokesman said. "We are playing our part to tackle climate change and our 2030 target [of cutting 2000-level emissions about 19 per cent] is ambitious and significant," he said. "Labor has nothing more than a plan to bring back the carbon tax and hike electricity prices."
Rising 'pretty much all of the time'

Cape Grim's readings are significant because they capture the most accurate reading of the atmospheric conditions in the southern hemisphere and have records going back 40 years.

With less land in the south, there is also a much smaller fluctuation according to the seasonal cycle than in northern hemisphere sites. That's because the north has more trees and other vegetation, which take up carbon from the atmosphere in the spring and give it back in the autumn.

So while 400 ppm has been temporarily exceeded at the other two main global stations since 2013 - in Hawaii and Alaska - they have dropped back below that level once spring has arrived because of that greater seasonal variation.

David Etheridge, a CSIRO principal research scientist, said atmospheric CO2 levels had fluctuated around 280 ppm until humans' burning of fossil fuels and clearing of forests set in process rising levels of greenhouse gases almost without pause since about 1800.
"It's been upwards pretty much all of the time," Dr Etheridge told Fairfax Media. "This is a significant change, and it's the primary greenhouse gas which is leading to the warming of the atmosphere."
The following chart, compiled by CSIRO researchers using atmosphere and ice core readings, show how CO2 levels have risen over the past 2000 years.
While the 400 figure is in itself of no particular note, compared with 399 or 401, it was a marker likely to carry important symbolism. "People react to these things when they see thresholds crossed," Dr Etheridge said.

While the fraction may seem small, it is 0.04 per cent of the atmosphere. By comparison, a similar level of alcohol would be close to the legal driving limit in Australia.

"These things act at low concentrations," he said, noting that ozone-destroying chemicals at levels of parts per trillion were enough to damage that important component of the atmosphere.

The Greg Hunt Shame Files

1) Hunt thinks there is no link between coal mines and climate change.
2) Hunt adds 49 species to the threatened and endangered list - on the quiet.

The Guardian -No definite link between coal from Adani mine and climate change
 The federal environment minister has argued in court that coal from Australia’s largest coalmine would have no “substantial” impact on climate change and as a result he did not need to consider whether it would affect the Great Barrier Reef.

The Australian Conservation Foundation challenged Greg Hunt’s approval of Adani’s Carmichael mine, alleging he failed to consider the impacts the burning of the coal from the mine would have on climate change and hence on the Great Barrier Reef.
Scientists have found the current mass bleaching event affecting 93% of the reef was made 175 times more likely by climate change and would become a biennial event within 20 years. After that point, the continued existence of the reef would be in doubt.
In federal court documents obtained by Guardian Australia, Hunt denied he failed to consider the impacts of coal on the reef.

In the outline of submissions filed on behalf of the minister, the Australian government solicitor explains that the minister did not think the burning of the coal “would be a substantial cause of climate change effects” and would have “no impact on matters of national environmental significance”.
The minister’s reasoning was that whether the burning of the coal would make climate change worse depended on whether it would increase the total amount of coal burned globally. But he notes there are a “raft of factors” that could affect how much coal was burned globally, including whether the coal from the mine displaced other coal and whether it was dealt with within various national emissions targets.
He concluded that there “was no requisite relationship between combustion emissions and increases in global temperature”.

Further, the minister argued that since the net impact was “difficult to identify”, there was no need to impose conditions on the mine, such as that climate impacts would be offset.
“Put simply, because any increase in net global greenhouse gas emissions was a matter of speculation, there was no need for or utility in the imposition of conditions.”
The Australian Conservation Foundation was represented by the Environment Defenders Office Queensland. The court case was heard in the federal court in Brisbane on Tuesday and Wednesday and a decision is expected within three to six months.

The Guardian- Australia quietly adds 49 species to threatened and endangered lists
 Nearly 50 new species of flora and fauna have been added without fanfare to the federal government’s list of threatened species, including nine that are critically endangered.
Among the species to be added to the list under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act were the brush-tailed bettong (endangered), the three-toed snake-tooth skink (vulnerable), the swift parrot (upgraded from endangered to critically endangered), and several types of orchid and albatross.
Australian Conservation Foundation campaigner Jess Abrahams said 49 species were added on Thursday without notice from the federal environment minister, Greg Hunt, or his ministry.
“Normally they’ll put out a press release and talk about all the great work they’re doing to turn this around. This time it just slipped out.”

Hunt’s office and the threatened species commissioner, Gregory Andrews, have both been contacted for comment.
Abrahams noted that no new funding had been put towards the existing threatened species strategy in the budget on Tuesday, meaning programs to bring animals such as the Leadbeater’s possum back from the brink of extinction were unable to be delivered.
Most of the species were threatened due to habitat loss, he said – and commercial activities that contributed to this were ongoing, compounding the problem of inadequate funding.
“What hope is there? ... The logging continues, the habitat loss continues – it’s no surprise that the species ends up on the threatened species list.”

The ghost bat, a late addition with a vulnerable status, has now joined two other threatened species on the list: the large-eared horseshoe bat (endangered), and Semon’s leaf-nosed bat (also vulnerable).
All live in the Melody Rocks near Cooktown on Cape York Peninsula, which fall under a mining proposal under consideration by the Queensland state government.
The limestone karst formations and their associated cave systems are key habitats for the three species, and Abrahams said the only known breeding site in Australia for two of them.
The mining proposal is currently before the Queensland government but has yet to be referred to the federal government for assessment under the EPBC Act. Approving it would only put the bats further at risk, said Abrahams.

The greater glider, found in East Gippsland in Victoria, was also having its habitat destroyed even as it was listed as vulnerable species.
The Goongerah Environment Centre reported that 11 greater gliders were found in a citizens’ survey of 850km of the Errinundra plateau, currently being logged by VicForests, just last week.
In East Gippsland, greater gliders are protected by law when more than 10 animals are found in a 1km long survey.
VicForests suspended its operations after GECO submitted its survey data to the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning on 28 April.
