The building on the right is the Bank of New South Wales,
designed by Edmund Blacket, which opened in Bathurst
in 1856 in rented premises (see below) and moved to this
site in 1860.
The firm of E.Webb & Co, one of Bathurst’s most successful, was
established in 1852 by Edmund Webb, an immigrant from
Cornwall. He started in a small rented shop in George Street and
built the store with the white front and side in 1862, naming it the
Western Warehouse. In 1870 he enlarged his business by
erecting the large edifice next door. Webb manufactured some
of his stock such as clothing and saddlery and sold his goods as
far away as Western Australia and New Zealand.
The next building, with the small white sign, is the Court House
Hotel which began in 1850 as the Elephant and Castle, was used
as the Bank of New South Wales for a few years in the fifties,
became the Court House Hotel in 1872 and from 1876 was known
to Bathurstians as the Metropolitan Hotel. The site is now
occupied by the Tavern Hotel (1997).

The Decline is Observable

It’s rapidly becoming readily apparent to everyone, not just me, #WangHunin, #Simplicius, and #AndreiMartyanov, that the decline of the #imperial #UnitedStates is both a) inevitable and b) observable.

The best indicator of #real #GDP per #capita is #energy usage per capita, because everything about a comfortable modern lifestyle takes a lot of energy, energy comes into everything people do and consume. This was rising exponentially to #1972, when the rise suddenly halted. It then started fall, slowly. And suddenly it has now started to fall rather more quickly and dramatically. It looks like three trend regimes: Exponential growth starting in the seventeenth century, then #stagnation and slow decline starting in 1972, and now it looks like the beginning of #dramatic #collapse, looks like the beginning of a sharp break in the trend of slow and gentle decline.

This reflects a #regime ever more #hostile to the #men who made it great, to the #faith that made it great, the #culture that made it great, and #race that made it great.

Notice that no matter what metric is used, 1972-1973 keeps appearing as the high water mark for the #USA. That’s not an accident. 1972 was, from an economic, industrial, and demographic perspective, the moment of Peak America.

Everything since then has been nothing but #decline #disguised by the #collapse of the #SovietUnion.

The Global South is Lost

One unanticipated outcome of the recent flareup in the #MiddleEast is that it appears to have put the final nail in the coffin of the #ClownWorldOrder by making it clear that the so-called “rules-based order” does not actually have any genuine principles or rules, thereby ensuring widespread global preference for the sovereign nations of the #Multipolarity over the #Imperial #USA and its occupied #satrapies.

Attempts by the #US and its allies to “paint #Moscow as a global pariah” have been “poisoned” by the rush to support Israeli retaliation against #Hamas in #Gaza, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday, citing more than a dozen officials.

“We have definitely lost the battle in the Global South,” one senior #G7 diplomat was quoted as saying. “All the work we have done with the Global South [over Ukraine] has been lost… Forget about rules, forget about world order. They won’t ever listen to us again.”

“What we said about #Ukraine has to apply to #Gaza. Otherwise we lose all our credibility,” the official added. “The Brazilians, the South Africans, the Indonesians: why should they ever believe what we say about human rights?”

West ‘lost’ Global South over Israel, 18 October 2023

Now, this is apparently shocking news to the inhabitants of #ClownWorld as well as its rulers, but it was always inevitable. The “Israel exception” to decades of baseless assertions about #democracy and #human-rights and respect for #indigenous peoples was never going to survive the #Internet anyhow, nor was “the plight of the poor, oppressed #Jewish people who never did nothing bad to nobody” ever going to cut any ice with anyone but high-trust, soft-hearted ignoramuses with no sense of #history.

And it’s a particularly bad look for #Israel to be observed to be “defending itself” by continuously #expanding its #territory. Considering that a significant percentage of the #GlobalSouth has historical experience with #violent #colonization of its ancestral lands, it should not be much of a surprise that there is a natural tendency for them to instinctively side with the #Palestinians. Indeed, many #Jews supported the #blacks in #SouthAfrica on much flimsier historical claims than those possessed by the Palestinians.

But as the Financial Times points out, it is the #juxtaposition of #ClownWorld’s position on the #Russia-Ukraine situation with the #Israel-Palestinian situation that has probably been the most harmful. Ukraine’s #crimes against the #Russians in the #Donbass, and the 14,400 Russians killed there between 2014 and 2022, far exceed the various crimes committed by Hamas in the same timeframe, and yet the #global #media has spent the last 19 months decrying Russian actions that have been considerably more restrained than the total #ethnic #cleansing of the Palestinians now being threatened all over social media in response to a single Hamas raid.

Clown World is dying. One hopes the #GreatPowers of the Multipolarity will use their power and influence in a more circumspect and generally beneficial manner once it is gone.

This is a #demo of the #new #piano that was #developed for the Yamaha SY99.The Franken Grand was created by using the #best #samples from several #pianos, including samples of a #Bösendorfer #Imperial. The samples really captures the warmth and weight of a large #piano. #AFM made it possible to create a stereo image with mono samples. The #bank uses over 900 kb so it requires that the #flash #RAM of the SY99 be expanded. #Memory #boards for the SY99 can be purchased from #Sector101. This piano could also be used with the Sector101 #WaveBlade on a SY77.
The piano can be found at;

The #Zionists could never have colonized the #Palestinians without the backing of #Western #imperial powers whose motives were tainted by #anti-Semitism.
Many of the Jews who fled to #Israel would not have done so but for the virulent #European anti-Semitism that by the end of World War II saw 6 million Jews murdered.
Israel was all that many impoverished and stateless survivors, robbed of their national rights, communities, homes and often most of their relatives, had left.

It became the tragic fate of the Palestinians, who had no role in the European pogroms or the Holocaust, to be sacrificed on the altar of hate.

The Jewish #colonizers knew they needed an #imperial patron to succeed and survive.
Their first patron was #Britain, which sent 100,000 troops to crush the #Palestinian revolt of the 1930s and armed and trained Jewish #militias known as the #Haganah.
The #savage #repression of that revolt included wholesale #executions and aerial #bombardment and left 10% of the adult male Arab population killed, wounded, imprisoned or exiled.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not the product of ancient ethnic hatreds. It is the tragic clash between two peoples with claims to the same land. It is a manufactured #conflict, the outcome of a 100-year-old #colonial #occupation by #Zionists and later #Israel, backed by the #British, the #UnitedStates and other major #imperial powers.

Imperial Abyss ~ Yanis Varoufakis, Richard D Wolff

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN6ac59G6Bo

'It has been one year since #JoeBiden came into office. While he is at COP26 making weak and unconvincing commitments on the climate, the #collapse of the #world #order as we know it — from #environment to #geopolitics — seems #imminent. #RichardWolff and #YanisVaroufakis examine #Biden’s first year in office, and share their perspectives on the current #political and #economic order and its #future, from #techno-feudalism to the new #ColdWar on #China. They also speak about the ongoing #pandemic and the profound #transformations taking place in our time.'

UK's #Professor "#Lockdown" #Ferguson has made many odd #predictions over the years - resulting in millions of #animals being #slaughtered for political reasons

I encourage you to watch this #documentary.

Full documentary here: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/winstonsmythe/

It pulls no punches about how the #slaughter was to help Tony #Blair's party gain re-election.

In 2002, Ferguson predicted that, by 2080, up to 150,000 people could die from exposure to #BSE (mad cow disease) in beef. In the U.K., there were only 177 deaths from BSE.

In 2005, Ferguson predicted that up to 150 million people could be killed from #bird flu. In the end, only 282 people died worldwide from the disease between 2003 and 2009.

In 2009, a government estimate, based on Ferguson’s advice, said a “reasonable worst-case scenario” was that the #swine flu would lead to 65,000 British deaths. In the end, swine flu killed 457 people in the U.K.

Last March, Ferguson admitted that his #Imperial College model of the COVID-19 disease was based on undocumented, 13-year-old computer code that was intended to be used for a feared #influenza pandemic, rather than a #coronavirus. Ferguson declined to release his original code so other scientists could check his results. He only released a heavily revised set of code last week, after a six-week delay.
