5-eyes resignations in AUS:
Sourced from QRes#6962
1. OK heads up. This is VERY interesting.
We all want to know when the documents subject to POTUS Trump's 17 September, 2018 will be declassified.
In the US, most think that a trigger will be release of the Mueller Report and shut down of the SC. True. But it's worth considering other indicators.
This comes from an Australian source (extract from email). SPREAD FAR AND WIDE :
2. 'We have seen the following sudden and unexpected resignations in the Australian government.
All are very ambitious Ministers, with extensive and close connections with the Obama State and/or IC community 2015-Jan 2017.
While it's true that the government is weak and there's an election in May, it is not normal that these politicians would suddenly 'resign'.
These are all very experienced Aussie career politicians. Even in opposition, they love being part of the game.
3. Consider: (Date resignation 2019, name, position, dates):
26 January - Michael Keenan, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Counter-Terrorism 5/28/15 - 12/20/17
21 February - Julie Bishop, Foreign Minister 9/18/13 - 8/26/18
1 March - Steven Ciobo, Minister for International Development & the Pacific (reporting to Julie Bishop)
Minister, Defence Industry, 7/19/16
1 March - Christopher Pyne, Minister, Defence Industry, - 7/19/16 - 8/26/18 (reporting to Julie Bishop)
4. Now consider:
Pyne is a close ally of Alexander Downer. Both come from Adelaide (capital, South Australia). He's known as 'The Fixer' - knows everything that's going on.
Keenan is a close ally of Julie Bishop. Both come from Perth (capital, Western Australia).
Ciobo is closely linked to both Bishop and Downer: refer

5. These are all Five Eyes people.
There's absolutely zero doubt that between 2015- Jan 2017 ALL of them would have met with and had access to the following characters in the US:
James Comey (FBI)
Jim Clapper (DNI)
John Brennan (CIA)
Hillary Clinton
John Kerry
And others in US/UK, implicated in #SpyGate.
Just a coincidence they've ALL unexpectedly quit in the last month?
6. ALSO, Rex : Julie Bishop & Alexander Downer are closely connected to the Clintons.
Bishop:

Downer :

7.
Quote : 'Rex, could be something, could be nothing. But given what's being revealed 24/7, don't you think it's odd that all have 'suddenly' resigned in the last month?'
YES. Yes, I do.
How about you guys?
(H/T 'Thommo')
SPREAD FAR AND WIDE, FOLKS. This seems important, don't you think?
The end.

Michael Keenan announces he is quitting politics at the federal election
Sourced from QRes#6965
Another one of the Australian rats from the 5 EYES spygate jumping the sinking ship. Rex outed some of the others in his post.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-01-25/minister-michael-keenan-quits/10752352
Federal Human Services Minister Michael Keenan will not contest the next election, making him the second minister to quit ahead of the federal poll.
It is understood Mr Keenan wants to spend more time with his family.
He was elected as the member for the WA electorate of Stirling in 2004.
Mr Keenan was one of a slew of ministers who quit former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull's cabinet ahead of the leadership spill in August 2018.
"Whilst politics is a proud vocation, it is also difficult and exhausting business," Mr Keenan said in a statement.
"The pressures on family life are formidable, as are the constant rigours of being an effective Member of Parliament, as well as a Minister in the Government," he said.
"I have always worked hard as a Member of Parliament and as a Minister, but after doing this for 15 years, I cannot commit to another term.

The unfair, anti-Catholic conviction of Cardinal George Pell
Sourced from QRes#6965 - and posting here (even though I strongly disagree with its opinions) to show Aus Anons whats being said in MSM/QRes by a few.
By George Weigel
No one with a sense of justice can fail to be outraged when, in “To Kill a Mockingbird,” a jury in Maycomb, Ala., bows to social pressure and convicts an innocent man of a crime he couldn’t have committed.
Something similar took place last month in real-world Melbourne, Australia, where Cardinal George Pell was falsely and perversely convicted on charges of “historic sexual abuse” dating to the 1990s.
The facts of the case have been hard to come by, owing to a media gag order issued by the trial judge. A journalistic feeding frenzy has long surrounded Pell, the former Catholic archbishop of Melbourne and Sydney and later the Vatican’s chief financial officer.
The trial judge was rightly concerned that opening the proceedings would make it impossible for Pell to get a fair trial on charges he forcefully denies. That order has left Australians largely in the dark. But certain facts are known, and others can be reasonably inferred.
The cardinal’s first trial ended in a hung jury, with 10 of 12 jurors in favor of acquittal.
In the retrial, the defense again demonstrated that it was physically impossible for the alleged abuse of two choirboys (one now deceased) to have occurred, given the layout and security arrangements of Melbourne’s Catholic cathedral and the fact that the choir and Pell were in two different places when the abuse was alleged to have occurred.
Pell, moreover, was always surrounded by others at the cathedral that day in 1996. Why the Melbourne police never took the trouble to investigate these exculpatory facts is one of several mysteries in this sordid affair.
The retrial jury took days to reach a verdict, during which the jurors asked the trial judge for instructions on how evidence should be considered. That an overwhelming vote for acquittal at the first trial was then flipped to a unanimous verdict for conviction invites the inference that the jury chose to ignore evidence that the alleged crimes couldn’t have happened.
Legal authorities can debate some of the curiosities of the criminal justice system in Melbourne. Why, for example, can’t a defendant request a bench trial by a judge alone, when a prejudicial public atmosphere makes the selection of an impartial jury virtually impossible?
How can a crime alleged to have been committed 22 years ago be prosecuted without any corroborating evidence that it occurred?
How can charges be brought when the public authorities could have easily determined that the alleged abuse couldn’t have happened, because the victims and the alleged perpetrator were never in close proximity, much less by themselves without witnesses?
Any judgment on the Pell verdict must also take full account of the atmosphere in which the cardinal’s case was heard. Anti-Catholicism has been a staple of Australia’s culture for decades. Local media long misrepresented Pell, a Church reformer, as a power-hungry ecclesiastical politician, and that caricature made him a convenient scapegoat for the grave crimes of other priests and bishops.
Yet as archbishop of Melbourne, Pell set up Australia’s first process for investigating and compensating claims of clerical sexual abuse. And as archbishop of Sydney, he applied strict protocols to himself, stepping aside until previous spurious abuse charges against him were thoroughly investigated — and dismissed — by a former Australian supreme court justice.

I tried to raise this concern on the Boards after reading comments by Australian catholics who know Pell to be a good man and one fighting the liberal psychos who have taken over the hierarchy of the Church. Pell was set up by the cabal to discredit his investigation of the Vatican Bank and finances. Meanwhile the guilty underage sex abusers/rapists surrounding Pope Francis are still being protected.
#
In AUS there is guilt by association. Anyone part of a gang or organization can be convicted of a crime committed by another in said gang or organization. When it comes to fucking kids, your guilty as fuck for systematically defending such an organization.
#
This was for an accusation that he personally committed the act.
#
Just like EVERYONE, YOU DIDN'T READ THE CASE!
As a lawyer, from an objective and legal point of view, I find this unjust.
'''Personally I doubt very much he's a fall guy for the Church, he was at the nexus of the sex abuse cases in the Ballarat area, and has always denied that it happened including to the victims who came forward, then when forced, paid them as little as possible to make them go away quietly. I think that the 2 cases that could be proven were highly likely to be the tip of the iceberg rather than a so called trumped up charge.
But everyone's entitled to their opinion about this guy.'''
Pedophiles are hunting children as young as 5 on Instagram as grooming triples on social media
Sourced from QRes#6967
Children as young as five are being groomed and abused on Instagram, Snapchat and Facebook, with 5,161 incidents reported in the UK in 18 months. The number of children targeted on Instagram has tripled in just one year, RT.com writes.
Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram were used to target children in 70 percent of recorded incidents, the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) reports. While 12-15-year-old girls were the most common targets for pedophiles, about 20 percent of the victims were under 11 and the youngest victim was just five years old.
Groomers used Instagram to contact targets in 428 cases between April and September 2018, a huge increase from the same period in 2017 which saw 126 cases. This figure only includes incidents where police recorded the method of communication used to target victims, the real number may be far higher.
The NSPCC obtained the figures through freedom of information requests to 39 police forces in England and Wales. A number of forces, including the City of London, did not respond to the request. Sexual communication with a child became an offense in the UK in April 2017.
“These figures are overwhelming evidence that keeping children safe cannot be left to social networks”, said NSPCC chief executive Peter Wanless.
Pedophiles have long trawled social media networks for grooming victims and for images of children. Australia’s Children’s eSafety Commissioner Alastair MacGibbon warned in 2015 that tens of millions of photos of children on pedophile websites had been taken from Instagram, often the child’s parents account. “The images are almost always accompanied by highly explicit and very disturbing user comments”, MacGibbon said.
In January, it emerged that people were using #dropboxlinks on social media to connect with other pedophiles to trade images of children. When the accounts were reported, Instagram at first said it did not violate the terms. People flooded the hashtags with memes to make it more difficult for the pedophiles to find each other until, following a report in the Atlantic, Instagram restricted the hashtag.
Youtube announced this week it would disable comments on children’s videos after a number of big advertisers pulled ads when reports emerged that pedophiles were leaving predatory messages in the comment sections.
The company also came under fire after it emerged that users who searched for terms like, ‘bikini haul’ were soon brought to videos of children where pedophiles were leaving comments.

Seems pretty biased reporting to me.
Why facts matter in Pell case
>first jury was deadlocked.
Deadlocked jury
A hung jury or deadlocked jury is a judicial jury that cannot agree upon a verdict after extended deliberation and is unable to reach the required unanimity or supermajority.
In Vic, if a unanimous decision cannot be reached, a majority verdict may be accepted if the jury has deliberated for at least 6 hours and it is unable to agree on its verdict.
All but one of the jurors must agree for there to be a majority verdict.

https://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/documents/explore/ResearchPublications/ResearchBriefs/2006/RBR200604.pdf
So the fact the first trial resulted in a deadlocked jury doesn't mean that most of the jury thought he was innocent of the charges, just that 1 or 2 out of 12 jurors could not be swayed to vote guilty.
Now did you realise
Not sure that Labour could be any worse than Libs. In my book they are both corrupt as corrupt.
Pretty sure it was John Howard's Liberal party that took our registered semi auto weapons away under the guise of a FF shooting in Port Arthur, and ramped up gun ownership requirements - still doesnt seem to affect the crims having weapons, with 1/10 shipping containers coming into our country getting inspected.
Wasn't it also his Liberal Party that lied about Children Overboard to get action on people coming to Australia, yet did seemingly nothing to encourage Indonesia to stop the boats from being sent in the first place, even though we were giving them more than $500M a year in financial support.
Glencore (= DS?) and ties to Aust?
Sourced from QRes#6985
Wikileaks has shown us Saudi Arabia and Qatar, Glencore investors TIED to Joule Unlimited and John Podesta, and thus in multiple directions James Comey, The Clintons, and the democrats, fund ISIS. And Qatar Gave Bill Clinton $1 million for a 5 minute meeting in 2011
$1 million for a five minute meeting in 2011? Didn't Gadaffi fall in 2011? Didn't Saudi Arabia invest $400 million into Glencore in 2011? Didn't Glencore begin trading Libyan Oil in 2011?
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
Does it go deeper? See above

What's that? Glencore is tied to the Keystone Pipeline?
Okay, let's slow down and take a step back. So Glencore is evil. But what does that REALLY have to do with Hillary Clinton? Where's the connection?
Right under our noses.

Goldman Sachs, Glencore, and Tony Rodham((Weird how they're all tied to Hillary)) have shady, shady mining deals
http://www.northkoreatimes.com/index.php/sid/233981609
Glencore is still working with North Korea. They are trying to have an aluminum monopoly in the US, and have been busted selling aluminum to the Iranian nuclear program…are they funding the North Korean one as well?
https://www.fastmarkets.com/base-metals-news/asia/focus-china-looks-north-korea-plug-glencore-zinc-concs-gap/
Glencore's chinese section, Xtrata, has deep ties to heavy metal mining and North Korea, including aluminum and nickel
http://af.reuters.com/article/sudanNews/idAFLDE76B1Q420110712
Glencore also benefits from trading Sudanese Oil. They sure have no problem showing up where human rights violations occur
https://www.wfp.org/content/un-agency-buys-377-million-australian-wheat-glencore
Glencore gets mining contracts in North Korea via China, and gets to sell food futures to North Korea via the United Nations. It's amazing how centered around Glencore the world's elite actually are.

The success of Glencore is directly tied to the success of the Chinese government. Note how Trump wants to be tougher on China, but Clinton does not.
https://ramumine.wordpress.com/tag/glencore-xstrata/
Remember the Honduran coup? Guess which company benefitted from Hillary's mucking about in Honduras? That's right, Glencore.
Okay, so for years Glencore has been benefiting from Hillary's foriegn policy. But how does Hillary Benefit from Glencore? Let's move to Canada for a bit, shall we?

Over 600 Tons of Leaked Oil Expected to Ruin Heritage-Listed Solomon Islands Reef
Sourced from QRes#6989
A terrifying environmental calamity has engulfed the Solomon Islands after a bulk carrier ran aground in last month’s cyclone Oma, threatening the future of a sensitive UNESCO World Heritage site.
The government of the small island nation has demanded urgent assistance in controlling the spill, which has already leaked over 80 tons of oil into the sea and surrounding shoreline and continues to gush into the nearby coral reef, causing a devastating impact on the environmentally sensitive region.
On February 5, the Hong Kong-flagged Solomon Trader, built in 1994, was loading bauxite from a mine on Rennell Island before the cyclone sank the ship onto a coral reef.
Over 660 tons of oil remain on board the leaking vessel along with the ship’s full load of bauxite, the key ore used to make aluminum. The ship was chartered with Indonesian company Bintan Mining Solomon Islands Limited, but its ownership remains unclear.
According to @guardian, the oil is yet to reach East Rennell which is a @UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Meanwhile, New Zealand and Australia are assisting the Solomon Islands government in dealing with the situation

Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has expressed that it was “profoundly disappointed” by the slow response to the unfolding catastrophe, according to the Associated Press.
The spill also threatens to eventually spread to East Rennell, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the largest raised coral atoll in the world. UNESCO officials had called the site “a true natural laboratory” for scientific study – and one which faces danger due to logging and overfishing in the area. The UNESCO World Heritage Centre is working with Solomon authorities in hopes of assisting in damage control.
A source with close knowledge of the incident told The Guardian:
“Once it hits rock the heavy fuel oil is effectively like a bitumen-like substance and has to be removed by hand.”
While Australian officials warn that it remains high’y likely that the oil will be “released” into the sea, salvage crews have scrambled to mitigate the damage and pump the remaining oil from the ship before it breaks up.
“All of the evidence indicates very little prospect of imminent action that would involve getting the oil off the vessel and preventing the ongoing spill,” the source added.
In the meantime, Bauxite mining operations by the company have continued unimpeded. Officials from the Solomon maritime administration have been interviewing mining management officials, however, and are expected to halt the company’s operations.
About 2,000 people live on Rennell Island and rely on the surrounding ocean, as well as its abundant natural resources, for their livelihoods. The island is also home to a number of unique species, including such birds as the bare-eyed white eye, the Rennell shrikebill, the Solomons white ibis and the rare venomous sea krait Laticauda crockeri.
“The impact of this oil spill will have a devastating effect on the surrounding environment, including potentially on a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as the livelihood of the people of Rennell,” Australian high commissioner Rod Brazier said.

PAKISTAN MILITARY CHIEF REACHES OUT TO US/UK/AUS TOP BRASS AMID STANDOFF WITH INDIA
Sourced from QRes#6997
Islamabad: Pakistan's army chief, Qamar Javed Bajwa, has spoken with top military officials from Australia, Britain and the United States, a military spokesman said, amid a volatile stand-off with neighbour India in Kashmir.
The Pakistani spokesman, Major General Asif Ghafoor, said in a tweet that Bajwa had discussed the stand-off and "its impact on peace & stability in the region" in a call with US CENTCOM Commander General Joseph Votel as well as with top British and Australian military figures on Friday.
Bajwa told them Pakistan would "surely respond to any aggression in self-defence", according to the Twitter post.
Ghafoor said Bajwa had also spoken by phone with the ambassadors of China, Britain and the US.
It is unclear whether countries were asked to make a military contribution to Pakistan's side of the conflict.
The news comes as Pakistan on Friday night, local time, released the Indian pilot it had captured when it downed two Indian planes on Wednesday.
Pakistani officials brought the pilot, identified as Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman, to the border crossing with India at Wagah and handed him back to India.
On the Indian side of the border, Indian officials greeted the pilot who was in a dark blue suit, accompanied by a representative of the International Committee of the Red Cross.
Islamabad has said that the handover was a gesture of peace that could defuse tensions and avoid another war between the two nuclear-armed neighbours.
