1. The money given to Edgecumbe after the earthquake in 87′ should have been spent on Edgecumbe’s infrastructure – not Whakatane’s.
   It was a flood waiting to happen…

   • True that KD.

     Whakatanae has gotten all the funding since Nactional took over, as Anne Tolley has spent big there on business parks and roading through the region to get elected every term, while surrounding towns were starved of funds, and as MP for gisborne also she relocated to Whakatakae after Natz deliberately destroyed the rail infrastructure after robbing the regional Kiwirail maintanence funding for Auckland rail.

     Pork barrel politics is well alive under Nactional.

   …”Savage also questioned the timing of Jared Kushner’s trip to Iraq, coupled with Bannon’s timely demotion from the NSC — just ahead of the attacks as being highly suspicious.

   “This whole thing stinks to high heaven,’ said Savage. Furthering his criticism of the President, Savage proclaimed: “It looks like Hillary, deep state won, and Trump is doing her bidding.”

   “No matter the years of intervention by the Obama administration, and calls for airstrikes by Hillary Clinton, America’s leftist ‘community organizers’ are out en masse nationwide today protesting President Trump’s actions in Syria – presumably they find Assad’s decision to drop chemical weapons on his people doubtful too…?

4. ‘Western media ‘whooping for joy’ following US missile strike on Syria’

   …”you also have to factor in the massive amount of pressure that all of this hysteria about Trump’s supposed ties to Russia had on this situation.

   A symbolic strike on a Syrian airbase can relieve the pressure and we saw a chorus of “idiot” liberals – I would call them “Id-libs” – celebrating the lack of congressional oversight on the Trump administration’s march to war in Syria; a celebration by Trump’s opponents of this potentially internationally illegal attack. From a political domestic standpoint, Trump has scored a kind of victory with his opponents.”

   ‘Hacker Group Releases Password To NSA’s “Top Secret Arsenal” In Protest Of Trump Betrayal’

   http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-08/hacker-group-releases-password-nsas-top-secret-arsenal-protest-trump-betrayal

   …”Since then, the Shadow Broker group, whose origin and identity still remains a mystery, disappeared from the radar only to emerge today, when in an article posted on Medium, the group wrote an op-ed, much of it in broken English, in which it slammed Donald Trump’s betrayal of his core “base”, and the recent attack on Syria, urging Trump to revert to his original promises and not be swept away by globalist and MIC interests, but far more imporantly, released the password which grants access to what Edward Snowden moments ago called the NSA’s “Top Secret arsenal of digital weapons.” …

   The report than goes on to suggest that the hacking group is in fact comprised mostly of former US spies: “President Trump, theshadowbrokers is offering our services to you and your administration. Did you know most of theshadowbrokers’ members have taken the oath “…to protect and defend the constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic…”. Yes sir! Most of us used to be TheDeepState everyone is talking about.”

   Then something changed, and the collective notes that “TheDeepState is being the enemy of the constitution, individualism, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. With the right funding we can recruit some of the best hacker intel peoples in United States and world. “Unmasking” is being new buzz word, so we use. TheShadowBrokers is being happy to unmask anyone we considering to be an enemy of the Constitution of the United States.”

   …It was the conclusion to the post, however, that was most interesting – in it the Shadow Brokers urges Trump to be the “real deal” and has released the password to the NSA hacking tool binaries that made so much news last summer…
