Hawaiian Jumbotron?
In tropical Hawai'i, the ice, snow & alpine environment of Maunakea
are extraordinary. Outsiders claim Legitimate destruction... continuing
their Colonization & Genocide.

America Promotes Ethnic Cleansing
Nefarious opponents of Hawaiians continue to destroy island graves &
pollute important places of worship.
Deliberate, strategic, the intruders break Laws.
Displacing Hawaiian culture is active Ethnic Cleansing = BAD

Disrespect
Confrontation on Mauna Kea stems from DISRESPECT. Disrespect of local
sensitivities. Disrespect of religion, kupuna ancestry & Poli'ahu.
Disprespect of pace of decisionmaking, ho'oponopono, and Hawaiian
health. Continuing gross disrespect from colonists, bitterly evident,
makes many Hawaiians angry.

Hawaiians
Awake!
Declaring "it's empty & barren" of meaning, aggressive predators
desecrate Hawaiian nature. Wrongs poorly justified: To advertise Swiss
medicines on White House banners could save lives. Giant aerial tram to
Mt. Fuji's summit could promote alpine access & ecology. It's wrong
outsiders further destroy Mauna Kea with force & desperate fury.
Flim Flam Man insists: small space on Mama's cheek is perfect for advertisement.

Glow to Tokyo 2020 ?
Japan's Fukushima nuclear meltdown hides an uncomfortable success story:
Onagawa Nuclear Plant was nearer the earthquake epicenter, yet survived
the shaking & tsunami to properly shutdown.
The "inescapable natural disaster" narrative excusing huge public funding is ridiculous knowing Onagawa's success.
"Onagawa was only 123 kilometers away from the epicenter—60 kilometers closer than Fukushima Daiichi—and the difference in seismic intensity at the two plants was negligible. Furthermore, the tsunami was bigger at Onagawa, reaching a height of 14.3 meters, compared with 13.1 meters at Fukushima Daiichi" [Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists - link]
Tokyo Electric Power Company, TEPCO - the nuclear operator at Fukushima, was terribly negligent and fundamentally criminal.
The Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission was succinct [Executive Summary, p.21]: "'Regulatory capture' ... allows individuals to justify their own actions, hide them when inconvenient, and leave no records in order to avoid responsibility. Across the board, the Commission found ignorance and arrogance unforgivable for anyone or any organization that deals with nuclear power. We found a disregard for global trends and a disregard for public safety."
http://warp.da.ndl.go.jp/.../3856371/naiic.go.jp/en/report/
The Commission Chair wrote [Executive Summary, p.9]:
"What this report cannot fully convey – especially to a global audience – is the mindset that supported the negligence behind this disaster. What must be admitted – very painfully – is that this was a disaster “Made in Japan.” Its fundamental causes are to be found in the ingrained conventions of Japanese culture: our reflexive obedience; our reluctance to question authority; our devotion to ‘sticking with the program’; our groupism; and our insularity."
The Tokyo 2020 Olympics will struggle with many key safety challenges. TEPCO Fukushima continues leaching radiation. There's always the threat of major earthquakes & tsunami throughout Japan. Even potential problems from volcanic eruption should not be ignored. Visitors are unlikely to notice the conceit & arrogance as described in the above report, but the dangerously insular mindset too accepting of authority is still inescapably found across Japan. Those navigating Tokyo 2020, please Beware!

Paradise Coverup!
Urine Trouble Boy
US federal & state officials are hiding details of the unidentified US Army trespasser who fell into Kilauea volcano on 2nd May. Three weeks now passed since he was rescued!
Was he pissing over the edge? ...his friends might have photo evidence.
Administrative coverup arouses global SCANDAL.
We condemn reckless colonialist arrogance exploiting Hawai'i.

Piss Poor US Army
US Army troops visit Kilauea, Hawai'i, and at a place off-limits to
civilians & Hawaiians, one soldier clambers over a railing and
somehow falls into Halemaumau crater.

Fascist Boot?
I don't know Ola Bini. Maybe I wouldn't like him, maybe he's great.
Mr. Ola Bini was arrested in Quito, Ecuador, in parallel to this week's London arrest of Julian Assange of WikiLeaks.
Governments are colluding against whistle-blowers. Julian Assange & Ola Bini may be heroes, or maybe assholes, but they are not at all murderers such as some they've revealed. Don't be tricked - without such information we're in the dark

Fairlady? the Furies of Nissan
Commercial Captive Carlos Ghosn, Land of the Rising Sun?
Japan concocts many corporate scandals, struck by: pollution & poisoning, deadly designs, substituting substandard components, circumventing safety audits, working employees to death, etc. -- plus unreported evils. Japan's corporate executives are rarely arrested or incarcerated even when mismanagement brings death or massive trauma (see 企業犯罪, 日本語 Wikipedia).
Nissan Mismanagement Case summary: Gaijin Beware!
Regardless of fault, "Japan Inc." gossip tarnishes Japan's legal system & damages business. Continuing intrigue harms all Japan. Nissan's former Chairman still praises Japan, but this video's 4:46 edit will worry his foes. Heroic stuff!

Sleazy Selling: the Postcard Tax Form
"Postcard" tax filing helped win US tax reform in 2017. Mega-rich got epic
tax breaks, but the Republican FairAndSimple.gop website now seems
forgotten. Was it all a CON? How is this surreal fantasy working out for you?
They were warned not to promise something unworkable, but laughed - betting on public stupidity & poor memory. The GOP never worked to achieve this promise. It's strong evidence of contempt.

USA Corruption
The capitalist US system favors the wealthy.
DUH.
Corruption infests US politics & advancement.
The recent scandal on corrupt college-admissions (link) is mere tip of the iceberg.
Of course, foreign wannabes are even easier targets for shake-down and scams (link)

Lambert Proposal: EU Holidays
French President Macron calls for a "European Renaissance" and this week suggests assorted progressive policies, mostly political.
Please consider as well that Europeans still know little about each other.
I suggest European holidays; specifically, four EU-wide days-off each year rotating among the national days of member states. Requiring seven years for one cycle, we'll perhaps one year drink French beer on 14 July, another year have Swedish fish 6 June. We may learn why 12 October is important in Spain, what happened 18 November in Latvia, and how Portuguese celebrate on 10th June.
It's a modest proposal, and a chance to learn & party. Let's admit: it'll be FUN.

Civility for Dummies
Calling for "civility" in response to abuse and criminality is wrongheaded.
Blame Pres. Obama for refusing to prosecute Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld-Rice-Powell for organizing torture & engineering public deception to wage illegal war in Iraq. Bullies are emboldened when there is no accountability. We're adept at ignoring our own genocidal crimes.

- Until the 1860s we allowed buying, whipping, owning "colored" people, and subsequently let former "owners" keep all proceeds from their now-illegal trade.
- Native lands & resources are being stolen even today.

Stealing inheritance
The United States of America stole
huge tracts of land from native peoples, forcibly displacing many communities. People
were aggressively assimilated or exterminated by mandatory reeducation and military
force.
Systematic efforts to uproot indigenous inheritance continue today, promoted by American industry via corrupt political & legal systems.
WE Pay for this Outrage; continuing over 400 years we've provided, hired, and paid for the soldiers & muscle, the walls, writs, whips and whitewash. How can just a few rich families claim the pie, leaving crumbs for the rest of us?
