And according to Summit News 83 people have been arrested by Aussie police over the last few months for starting bushfires.
Experts believe 85% of the fires are caused by humans.
Breitbart.com reported:

Overall, across Australia police arrested 183 people for lighting bushfires across Queensland, NSW, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania in the past few months.
The link between arsonsists and the deadly fires that devastate Australia every summer is well known and well documented, with the rate of deliberately lit fires escalating rapidly during the school holiday period.
The Conversation reports experts estimate about 85 percent of bushfires are caused by humans. A person may accidentally or carelessly start a fire, such as leaving a campfire unattended or using machinery which creates sparks.

INFIDEL HUMOR

There Is Something Fundamentally Wrong With Democrats

American Gothic - Commie Version 

It’s odd how the political left cheers America’s shortcomings and mourns its victories. The United States killed the top terrorist on the planet Thursday, and Democrats were…upset. 

Perhaps “upset” is too vague, they were a combination of angry and scared. They were angry that President Trump ordered an air strike on Qassem Soleimani, a man responsible for the deaths of more than 600 American soldiers and thousands more wounded. 

They tried to pretend they were glad he was dead, that he deserved to die, but their quick condemnation of the action that took him out exposed what they were really thinking. Any statement on the death of a terrorist leader containing the word “but” is not a good statement. 

Weirdly, the people who use the word “justice” most often saw no justice in the death of a man who’s been killing innocent people for their whole lives. 

Ilhan Omar reacted the way someone would when their childhood hero passes away, then tried to fundraise off of it because anti-Americanism translates into cash on the left. 

Rashida Tlaib warned about a “lawless President recklessly moves us closer to yet another unnecessary war that puts innocent lives at risk.” She expressed no concerns for the innocent lives Soleimani had taken over his career. 

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez whined that “the President engaged in what is widely being recognized as an act of war against Iran, one that now risks the lives of millions of innocent people.” The girl who saw “concentration camps” on our southern border has her head so far up where last night’s dinner resides that she can’t see the death right in front of her.

Iranian terrorist kingpin Qassem Soleimani’s Top 10 Atrocities

From The Geller Report:

1. Assassination. The left may rail about the targeted killing of Soleimani as an ‘assassination’ but killing heads of state was Soleimani’s stock in trade. He was behind the 2005 bomb murder of Lebanon’s beloved president, Rafik Hariri. Dexter Filkins, writing in the New Yorker, in 2013, explained what and why: “Hariri, a Sunni, had been trying to take Lebanon out of the Iranian-Syrian orbit. On Valentine’s Day, he was killed by a suicide truck bomb whose payload weighed more than five thousand pounds.” Harire death left a cold chill throughout the Middle East. 

2. Mass killings of American military targets. In 1983, Soleiman was involved in the Beirut barracks bombing. Acting in the mullah regime’s interests, his idea was to drive U.S. forces out through use of Iran’s little pawn, Hezb’allah, which grew in power after the mass attack while Iran itself succeeded in getting the Iran’s aims enacted. Soleimani’s Quds force was the actual creator of Hezb’allah, which was always happy to be Iran’s little pawn. After the attacks, all were emboldened. I recall that the late great Herbert Meyer, at the time a Reagan administration national security official, later said the Reagan administration rued the decision to take troops out, given the growing power of the terrorists that came of it. 

3. Mass killings of more American military targets. In 1996, Soleimani and his buddies sent in a truck bomb to blow up the Khobar Towers in naked warfare to advance Iran’s interests. Iran had a problem with the U.S. teaming up with the Saudis to fortify the nation from extremist attacks. Twenty mostly American troops were killed and nearly 500 were injured and he got away with it.

A BIG FAT FUCK YOU: President Trump Notifies Pelosi and Her Fellow Congressional Malcontents VIA TWEET That He Intends To Act As The Chief Executive of the United States

Trump’s use of the word “disproportionate” was in response to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s statement on the drone strike that killed Soleimani on Friday. Pelosi said President Trump’s decision to kill Soleimani would further put Americans at risk by “engaging in provocative and disproportionate actions.”

Soleimani’s death leaves Iran’s strategy in tatters

Barbecued Jihadi

The killing of Quds Force Commander Qassim Soleimani and Iraqi paramilitary leader Abu-Mahdi Al-Muhandis changes everything. With one fell blow Trump has taken out the two dominant figures exporting Iranian militancy across the region. 

Although the furious regime in Tehran will seek a devastating riposte, this operation liquidates the man who for three decades masterminded its regional terrorist strategy. 

The death of Soleimani — lauded by Iranian leader Ali Khamenei as his “living martyr of the revolution” and believed by many to be Khamenei’s likely successor — leaves a gaping vacuum in Iran’s power to mobilize militants across the region. 

Soleimani acquired the nickname Wazir Al-Mustawtanat (minister of colonies) in reflection of the pivotal role he played in orchestrating Iran’s quest for regional dominance. Iran in 2003 initially sought to appease President George W. Bush, believing it could be next after the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. 

It was Soleimani who forcefully advocated and spearheaded the policy of bogging the US down in the bloody Iraqi quagmire by building a new generation of paramilitary forces which staged thousands of attacks against coalition troops, killing around 600. 

When the US unsuccessfully sought to arrest Soleimani by attacking his convoy in Kurdistan in early 2007, he responded days later with one of the most audacious militant operations of the conflict, penetrating the coalition’s Karbala headquarters in broad daylight, and abducting and killing several US soldiers. 

By late 2011 most diplomats were predicting that Bashar Assad would be driven out of power within weeks. Instead, Soleimani flew to Damascus and embarked on a massive campaign to bankroll the dictator and establish sizeable militia forces (using many of his Iraqi proteges). 

Soleimani’s strategy ultimately achieved the impossible, with his forces wading their way through rivers of civilian blood to retake much of the country. Russia stepped up its own involvement only after Soleimani had personally overseen the recapture of Aleppo. 

Soleimani was also the architect of Iran’s intervention in Yemen, incorrectly arguing that Tehran could give Gulf states a bloody nose without them ever daring to respond. 

Talking to senior Iraqis and Iraq-based diplomats, it never failed to astonish me how active Soleimani was, rarely delegating activity to his subordinates. Soleimani was on the frontlines and in the operations rooms during all the key battles against Daesh. 

In 2017, he bribed and threatened Kurdish politicians into ordering the Peshmerga’s withdrawal from all of central Iraq, with Iran’s proxies occupying the vacuum. As arguably the second-most powerful Iranian after Khamenei, nobody can fit into Soleimani’s outsized shoes. 

His designated successor as commander of the Quds Force, Esmael Ghani, is a much lower-profile figure who will lack his late boss’ encyclopedic network of personal contacts and knowledge of a generation of Iranian militancy. 

By killing Soleimani, the US has decapitated the principal agent of Tehran’s strategy for regional hegemony.

How The Obama Administration Set In Motion Democrats’ Coup Against Trump

The following is an excerpt from Lee Smith’s book out October 29, “The Plot Against the President: The True Story of How Congressman Devin Nunes Uncovered the Biggest Political Scandal in U.S. History.” 

AFTER DONALD TRUMP was elected forty-fifth president of the United States, the operation designed to undermine his campaign transformed. It became an instrument to bring down the commander in chief. 

The coup started almost immediately after the polls closed. Hillary Clinton’s communications team decided within twenty-four hours of her concession speech to message that the election was illegitimate, that Russia had interfered to help Trump. 

Obama was working against Trump until the hour he left office. His national security advisor, Susan Rice, commemorated it with an email to herself on January 20, moments before Trump’s inauguration. 

She wrote to memorialize a meeting in the White House two weeks before. 

On January 5, following a briefing by IC leadership on Russian hacking during the 2016 Presidential election, President Obama had a brief follow-on conversation with FBI Director Jim Comey and Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates in the Oval Office. Vice President Biden and I were also present. President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities “by the book.” The President stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book. From a national security perspective, however, President Obama said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia. . . . The President asked Comey to inform him if anything changes in the next few weeks that should affect how we share classified information with the incoming team. Comey said he would. 

The repetition of “by the book” gave away the game—for there was nothing normal about any of it. Rice wrote an email to herself. It commemorated a conversation from two weeks before. The conversation was about the FBI’s investigation of the man who was about to move into the White House—an investigation from which Obama was careful to distance himself. 

During the conversation, the outgoing president instructed his top aides to collect information (“ascertain”) regarding the incoming administration’s relationship with Russia. 

“To any rational person,” says Nunes, “it looks like they were scheming to produce a get-out-of-jail-free card—for the president and anyone else in the White House. They were playing Monopoly while the others were playing with fire. 

Now the Obama White House was in the clear—sure, they had no idea what Comey and Brennan and McCabe and Strzok and the rest were up to.”

Iranian Hackers Take Over US Govt Website with Bloody Trump Picture, Warn ‘This is Only Small Part of Iran’s Cyber Ability’

Iranian Hackers Take Over US Govt Website with Bloody Trump Picture, Warn ‘This is Only Small Part of Iran’s Cyber Ability’

This will likely be another example of how Trump's aggressiveness brings things that are hidden to the surface. I am betting that this "hacking" was done in complicity with some Muslim or Communist who works for the US Government. 

I believe it will come out.

A group claiming to represent Iran hacked and defaced an obscure US government website on Saturday. 

The hackers infiltrated the website for the Federal Depository Library Program with an image of President Donald Trump being punched in the face and bleeding from his mouth. 

They also posted a warning that this is “only a small part of Iran’s cyber ability.” 

A warning on the breached website read “in the name of god.  Hacked By Iran Cyber Security Group HackerS … ;)This is only small part of Iran’s cyber ability ! We’re always ready.”

Nation's Christians Wish God Had Given Them Some Kind Of Unimpeachable, Incorruptible Leader To Follow

Wring your hands, brothers and sisters. LOL

From the Babylon Bee:

U.S.—The nation's Christians are lamenting the fact that God never gave them a leader they could follow who was unimpeachable, incorruptible, and absolutely perfect in every way. 

"If only God had given us a leader who could never be impeached, whose moral character was impeccable, and who would even sacrifice himself to save us," said one man in Oklahoma. 

"Alas, he just gave us Trump, who's pretty close to that, I guess. But still -- he makes mistakes, like David did." 

Christians said that God could have used the pattern of David but instead given them a leader who was "even better than David." 

"Like, maybe He could have appointed someone to rule who's like a second David -- following King David's type but without sin," said Pastor Jeremiah Benson in Arkansas. "He could be the better Adam, the better Moses, the better Trump." B 

elievers across the country said that if God had seen it fit to give them a leader like that, they wouldn't need to trust in kings, princes, or presidents. "We could just, like, not worry too much about how things are going in the political realm, because we would know that our leader could never be removed or corrupted." 

"Oh well."
