The Sunni world is happy that ISIS was checked, as their chosen proxy had got too big for its boots and was upsetting the neighbours. The salafist elements within Qatar’s government and population are satisfied that they have done their covert bit for Prophet and I slam. And the outside world is kinda happy that the balance of power is maintained.

Lockdown questions Premier Daniel Andrews won’t answer
After 211 days in lockdown, and with no end in sight, Victorians want straight answers — but the Premier has offered little hope.
Victoria has clocked up 211 days in lockdown and the state’s crippling sixth lockdown will be extended with no end date in sight. These are the questions Premier Daniel Andrews needs to answer.
What do the daily case numbers need to be to see some easing of restrictions?
Premier Daniel Andrews on Sunday said the state had options available with “low numbers”, but when asked how low those numbers needed to be he wouldn’t say.
“As low as we can get them,” he said.
“At the moment the numbers are too high. It’s not just about numbers, though. It is about the narrative and the story behind each of those numbers.”
When will we be out of hard lockdown?
The premier confirmed the state’s lockdown would be extended but did not provide details on how long the restrictions would last. The week-long “circuit breaker” has now gone 26 days.
“It is not going to be possible for us to be able to open our Victorian community in just a couple of days’ time,” he said.
“We will, however, look at all the different options. We don’t have advice yet from the chief health officer as to what is possible later on this week.”
With the premier and chief health officer Brett Sutton fixated on a zero-case strategy, there are fears Melbourne and Victoria’s lockdown measures will drag on until 80 per cent of the population is fully vaccinated, which will not be likely until mid November.
What restrictions will be eased when 70 per cent of the population is fully vaccinated?
Mr Andrews acknowledged that 70 per cent was a target but may not lead to major changes.
“Seventy per cent is a marker but the really significant shifts don’t appear until you get to 80 per cent,” he said.
Some restrictions could be eased before this, he said, but he didn’t detail what they could be.
When will children be able to return to school?
Unlike in NSW, the Victorian state government has not outlined a timeline for when children can expect to return to classes.
Year 12 students will be prioritised for exams and final-year study but it has not been revealed whether this will depend on the vaccine rollout. VCE students have already been told they will need negative Covid tests to take some exams.
Despite the high case numbers, NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has revealed a staged return to school from October 25 starting with year 12, kindergarten and grade 1.
All people working on school campuses must be vaccinated by November 8, when all students return.
Will people who are fully vaccinated be given any extra freedoms before the 70 and 80 per cent targets are reached?
Australia’s national cabinet has been working on a strategy for vaccine passports and passes, with further discussions to go on this week. But the premier has not yet guaranteed any extra freedoms for vaccinated Victorians before we reach the 70 per cent and 80 per cent targets.
“A restaurant or major event that is only attended by people who are double vaccinated is always going to be a safer event,” he said.
“The time is coming where your vaccination status will matter.”
When will some industries to able to reopen in a Covid safe way?
Unlike New South Wales, where it is trialling reopening some industries to fully vaccinated people, such as hairdressing, there’s no indication from the Premier when they can plan to open.
When will childcare centres be allowed to reopen?
Under ramped-up restrictions introduced last week, childcare centres are closed except for children whose parents are authorised workers and can’t be supervised at home. No date has yet been set for them to reopen.
Will the Premier and cabinet place greater consideration on the mental wellbeing of children after the state’s chief psychiatrist revealed the toll it was taking on younger Victorians?
On Sunday, Mr Andrews said the state’s chief psychiatrist to address the media at one of the government’s daily press conferences, although this promise was first made 17 days ago.
“I wouldn’t want anyone to think that there wasn’t a massive effort that has gone into bolstering and supporting those who provide mental health care across the board,” he said.
“We understand that there is a big impact.’’
When will playgrounds reopen?
Despite no direct evidence of children catching Covid there, playgrounds have been shut and there is no date scheduled for their reopening.
When will the curfew end?
The Premier has not yet revealed any plans to end the curfew, which right now is in effect from 9pm to 5am. The current restrictions will be reviewed this week.

**************************************
NSW cases today 1,290 (up 72), hospitalisations 840 (up 27), in ICU 137 (up 11), deaths 4.
The virus is out of control in NSW and likely to reach 2,000+ new infections per day before December. Hospitalisations and ICU admissions will rise in proportion. Hospitals in Greater Sydney are already turning patients away and ambulances are experiencing inability to attend emergencies in time. So, when this results in people being widely unable to receive proper medical attention for other conditions, morbidity and deaths from other causes will also rise dramatically.
In those circumstances you can expect no “opening up” by December. Instead, the public will be clamouring for stronger proper lockdowns and for the dismissal of Gladys and Scomo.

JERUSALEM, Aug 29 (Reuters) – Israel on Sunday began offering a COVID-19 booster to children as young as 12, and its prime minister said a campaign that began a month ago among seniors has slowed a rise in severe illness caused by the Delta variant.
Announcing the decision, top Israeli health officials said the effectiveness of the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech (PFE.N), (22UAy.DE) vaccine waned six months after administration, making a booster necessary.
—
Israel explains the vaccine is shit, so you need infinite doses of it every five months forever.
Or, in other words, Pfizer et-al have lied about the overcoming the problems with coronovirus vaccines, to wit the mutation issue, and the WHO, FDA, etc, etc all have willingly believed their marketing lies and pushed those onto the public because ‘Emergency!’.

Epic seeing the younger generation seeing through the lies being pushed on the world
Saw an interesting graph of the “disbelievers” of the “vaccine” the other day, based on education levels. It was sort of U shaped. The “dip” in the middle represented those with “advanced” education levels – i.e. those with basic degrees or some sort of tertiary qualification.
The elevated numbers on either side of this “dip” were represented on the one side, by those with no more than a high school qualification, and the other side by PhDs!
Explanation (or so it seems to me)?
The PhDs are compulsive researchers, & have easily discovered the background to the whole vax debacle.
The mob with just a basic education have the best “bullshit detectors” in the world & have reached the same conclusion.

It is an incredibly sick situation, beyond godless, beyond babylonian, where normal young healthy families, living normal lives right now, are sick to their stomachs sitting around nervously talking to each other about whether they will be able to even buy food in six months because the government has arbitrarily banned them from life for being normal. Making plans to flee cities, making bargains to reduce life to near-peasant status in order to live outside of what’s threatened to be coming ‘new normal’, making lines in the sand at which they’ll have to capitulate to the vulgar display of power so they and their children may continue to live some simulacrum of life that they are happily living on this very day – the dwindling days before this life right now is artificially denied them by this malignant unapologetic dictatorship.
This is been done to these families, literally the people shouldering the burden of society, we see for the exclusive benefit of old baby boomers. In their name. Who are at the same time, are greedily getting out the caravan brochures, itching to get the flash new government licence so they can, yet again, go for a drive around Australia on their quest to visit every Coffee Club on the map, at age 75. Free from concern about ‘carriers’ and ‘spreaders’ with a sore throat or runny nose, completely dis-interested in the crushing everlasting state tyranny – the mandated utter destruction of lives and abolition of free society as it has been for thousands of years. The life that they themselves gorged on like pigs at a trough for 70+ years, being proposed and hinted and openly menacingly sneered about, while showing zero interest in doing anything about it, belies the most grave generational betrayal in recorded history.

Arky, clearly, the first. But desperate people make desperate moves, so not ruling out the other. If there’s a large unvaxxed minority remaining it will be difficult to deal with them and the vaxxed will have to feel cheated, if the former continue without any illness.
Perhaps the vaxxed will do the Govt’s dirty work by following through on segregation and unfriending – business is already being pressured to do that.
But the govt has problems, too. The side-effects and possible long term ill-health are the real and growing problem, there. Time, in fact, is running out for the govt, which is why Gladys is ever more desperate at her pressers.
And how many more people will become very sick and/or die from the jabs before the health professionals – through their unions – speak up?

Interesting development.
Mrs A tells me that banking institutions that help facilitate their hesitant staff getting jabbed have been advised in writing by the Health Minister that their staff will be indemnified by the Government if they get sick as a result. I’m assuming she means the staff themselves (not the bank), but I’ll have to clarify that.
I’m wondering why it’s only bank staff, and not the general public.

The naivety is strong here:
The change in national mood is clear: let’s get the jab done and get on with our lives.

To clarify. Banks are running their own “in-house” vaccination programmes.
Indemnity is for the bank and the employee. Apparently it was first reported in The Australian on Saturday.

<ital>“A restaurant or major event that is only attended by people who are double vaccinated is always going to be a safer event”</ital>
Margins are low in the eatery business. A restaurant that excludes 30% of its market isn’t going to last too long. Hence the vaccine passports won’t have legs, but expect a lot of mess before the idea goes down the S-bend

Our current self inflicted misery has broken me. I just want to quite literally live as an outcast in the middle of nowhere, no BS.
Ghosting, they call it, but I want to ghost society as a whole.

Americans call it off-grid. Dot , don’t go Ted Kaczynski on us, okay. Ironically he has/had a similar IQ as you claim to and also similar anger towards the government.

More madness…….from RT.
A Chicago judge has reportedly restricted a mother’s parental rights, requiring her to get vaccinated against Covid-19 if she wants to see her 11-year-old son in person. The woman said she plans to appeal the ruling.
The unusual ruling occurred during an August 10 child support hearing via Zoom. Firlit, who has been divorced for seven years, shares custody of her son with her ex-husband. The court proceedings took an unexpected turn after Judge James Shapiro asked her whether she had received a Covid-19 jab.
Firlit said she had not been inoculated yet, explaining that she was hesitant because she had suffered from adverse reactions to vaccines in the past.
Shapiro then ordered that Firlit not be allowed to see her son in person until she gets vaccinated. “I miss my son more than anything. It’s been very difficult,” she told a local Fox News affiliate. The court order is not in her son’s best interest, who is now being forcibly kept away from his mother.
For now, Firlit is limited to speaking to her son on the phone and through video calls. But she says that she will appeal the judge’s ruling. Shapiro had “placed his views on me” and his question about her vaccination status had “nothing to do with what we were talking about,” Firlit argued.
Her attorney, Annette Fernholz, has accused the judge of exceeding his jurisdiction.
“In this case you have a judge, without any matter before him regarding the parenting time with the child deciding, ‘Oh, you’re not vaccinated. You don’t get to see your child until you are vaccinated,’” Fernholz said. She pointed out that the father did not bring up the issue of vaccination or if it could potentially affect visitation rights, meaning that the judge acted on his own.
Jeffrey Leving, a lawyer representing the father, said that while the ruling was unexpected, “every child should be safe.” Leving noted that there are “children who have died because of Covid” and that Firlit should be vaccinated.

I find it incredible how the Leb, Nassim Taleb, destroyed the IQ based” bell curve” with a twitter account and a several blog entries.
His data analysis showed that IQ testing only measures defective intelligence rather than high level intelligence.
He destroyed conventional wisdom.

So true Dot.
“If you want to detect how someone fares at a task, say loan sharking, tennis playing, or random matrix theory, make him/her do that task; we don’t need theoretical exams for a real world function by probability-challenged psychologists. Traders get it right away: hypothetical P/L from “simulated” paper strategies doesn’t count. Performance=actual. What goes in people’s head as a reaction to an image on a screen doesn’t exist (except via negativa).”

Do we wanna include a reference to Bird in all that? It was his idea after all, and I suspect he might love the recognition enough to calm the hell down a bit…
e.g. Subspecies ‘Taenia Catallaxii Birdicus’ or Taenia Catallaxii Graemia…’
