Witness account from Bondi Beach tonight: He reports that at least four police officers did not return fire for over 20 minutes yesterday. The police station is only a few hundred metres away. Any comment from Cardinal Parolin?

Yes. And the altercation was because of how Jacob and Rebekah deceived the hapless Issac to steal the birthright. Why would God "need" a pair of liars to define His lineage? Because He would not allow anyone to boast of the lineage of the Messiah. With the altercation, Jacob received a limp and God's Mercy, like when we all fight God. The mark of Christianity. With God's Mercy, he receives the new name Israel. AND THAT IS THE MEANING OF ISRAEL.

That creepy looking son can’t wait to get his grubby thieving hands on that money…..sad. His dad won’t get to enjoy any of it with him around. And probably won’t live much longer either—if you get my drift.

Let me give you an example that a friend of mine told me. His daughters go to high school in the Bay Area. And he was asking them, like, 'You know, who are the first few presidents of the United States?' They could name Washington. Then he said, 'Well, what do you know about him? Well, 'He was a slave owner.' 'What else?' Like, OK, that's, maybe you should know more than that.

Reacting to the recent summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and the military parade in Beijing dedicated to the victory over fascism in World War II, attended by dozens of leaders, including Russian President Vladimir Putin, Kallas expressed that it was "news" to her that Chinaand Russiawere among the victors who defeated Nazism and fascism This is not a minor gaffe; it is a shocking lack of historical literacy. The Soviet Union (whose primary successor state is Russia) suffered over 20 million casualties in the Great Patriotic War, a sacrifice that, in alliance with the United States and Britain, fundamentally broke the back of the Nazi war machine. China, for its part, endured …
