SUBVERSION, CONCENTRATION, CONDESCENSION, DETENTION AND UNIVERSAL PARALLELS
Lightning Ridge, NSW, Australia.
When we reached behind the sleeve, the cuff, the surface of things, when we saw where everything was heading, foreboding.... It was David Kilcullen, a highly intelligent man who liked everyone to know the fact, who said words to the effect: "The West has to decide, what is left worth preserving? What are we fighting for?"
And it was the Chinese who always said: "When two truths collide, the most courageous one wins."
Thomas Jefferson: "When people fear their government there is tyranny. When government fears the people, there is liberty."
He was reading Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA, watching CIA whistle blower clips on YouTube, entranced, now, by the flood of information, a new advent, a new change, every single day. He had been cowed, and then risen. The world was a tinderbox. Or to quote a book title, Dirty Wars: The World is a Battlefield. It was becoming more frightening, instantly more frightening, year by year, step by step, Ramadan, the Season of Feasting and Fighting. God, God was everywhere in these battles for the soul. They bowed in their millions. The darkest of temples, the darkest of heavens, entreated them to follow.
There are many heavens, the Falun Gong preach, a heaven for the Christians, a heaven for the Muslims. There is room for everybody, or once there was. What was most disturbing about the present moment was the bleeding of dark power across worlds; a kind of psychotic break across the heavens.
The followers bowed in subjugation.
But why would a god want to be worshiped?
Frightening, very frightening. The world disturbed in a violent, clandestine, clairvoyant way, the weeping of the unjust behind every veil, creeping, the suburban cult followers, the Universal Church, they conjured their beasts and worshipers at large, but they did not know, oh Lord forgive them they did not know, what they did, which dark forces they were messing with.
London was a tinderbox, increasingly, and the platitudes flew thick and fast from every high wall, every high tower. He had been there so long ago, a different place, a different time. And those who had set out to change the world were succeeding at dramatic pace.
Here in Australia, in this far off place, with a disillusioned, supplanted, subjected, dispirited population, with evil having already taken the reins of government, the succubus, the conspiracy of power at the highest level, ably assisted by armadas of useful fools. A heavily manipulated population were indoctrinated to care about chimera, emasculated, a passing conscience, fads, look over here while we screw you; and if anyone raised a voice, why did so few raise a voice; the government had praised the media, razed it to the ground, planted their spies and subordinates everywhere, in what would ultimately prove a fruitless effort to control the flow of information.
Shut it down, shut everything down. That way there will be no revolt.
But they were military officers, or had the mental makeup of military officers. They had no understanding of civilians, of the messy, character filled lives of ordinary people. They did not hear the orders. They marched to a different drummer. Old Alex, too, marched to a different drummer and implored them to take heed. The world grew colder, more brittle by the day. And the Australia that was gone in a whisper of a once warm, body warm, body odour whiff, gone before it had even been breathed. The Balkanisation of the country was accompanied by a Balkanisation of the soul. And they stayed very very quite. Put simply: they were frightened. Scared the bejesus out of me, mumbled a Watcher on the Watch, he, too, caught mercilessly in the fabric of thing, as they, too, disappeared in fright.

London police say the number of people dead or missing after last week's high-rise apartment building fire has risen to 79.

Five people reported as missing have now been found.
Investigations continue as to how the fire began.
Families turn to social media in order to find missing persons.
Police Commander Stuart Cundy gave the new figure during a statement outside Scotland Yard on Monday. The previous figure given was 58.
Commander Cundy said the new number may change as the investigation into the incident continues, but not as much as it had in recent days.
Although grave fears remain for those missing, five people have now been found safe and well.
Commander Cundy said the search and recovery operation in the 24-storey Grenfell Tower was ongoing, and it had been incredibly distressing for families.
"It's hard to describe the devastation the fire has caused," he said.

Media player: "Space" to play, "M" to mute, "left" and "right" to seek.

FINSBURY PARK Mosque, which has a history of links to terrorism worldwide, has tried in recent years to change its image to the outside world under new management.
The mosque, which is housed in a five-storey building next to Finsbury Park tube station in the London borough of Islington in north London, was opened in 1994 in a ceremony attended by Prince Charles.
The mosque became notorious when Abu Hamza al-Masri became the imam in 1997. Hamza, who had one eye and no hands and used hook devices, lied that the injuries were suffered when he fought for al-Qaeda against Russian forces in Afghanistan.
