Another DOOFUS explaining why Turkey was not prepared for the disaster.However, the real reason for such destruction was the skirting of the Building Code. Over a 12,000 buildings were destroyed in the latest earthquake. Even though Turkey has, on paper, construction codes that meet current earthquake-engineering standards,they are too rarely enforced, explaining why thousands of buildings crumbled.
Turkey has for years has played with fire by not enforcing modern construction codes while allowing, – in some cases, encouraging — a real estate boom in earthquake-prone areas according to experts.

Amnesty was given to violators leading up to the 2018 election. As part of that amnesty program, the government agency responsible for enforcing building codes acknowledged that more than half of all buildings in Turkey — accounting for some 13 million apartments— were not in compliance with current standards.
Several experts said any serious investigation into the root of weak enforcement of building codes must include a hard look at the policies of Erdogan, as well as regional and local officials, who oversaw — and promoted — a construction boom that helped drive economic growth.
Erdogan, says, “we must all come together” in support of those who suffered most and Turkey as a whole. Of course, this is another “blame it on them, not on me” political platitude leading up to the presidential election in May.
PEOPLE OF TURKEY, LISTEN TO US, VOTE ERDOGAN OUT NOW.Hasn’t he done enough damage already?
After the latest Balloon Affair where China floated surveillance technology across the Homeland gathering important location vulnerability,Biden has now claimed that he has grabbed the apple while riding a merry go round.
So, the Candy Ass has plucked an unknow object from the sky over Alaska; shot down by a F-22 mind you. Pop goes the Weasel one more time.
Question arise why this was not done the first time. All types of excuses have been floated by Biden’s entourage of thrill seekers. Number one on the list, get this, we were monitoring the balloon for a week, number two, we didn’t want to cause a personal calamity to those on the ground, number three, we though it was a UFO and therefore we wanted to manifest our peaceful behavior.
Once again we deduce that the Biden-Harris team, or is it, the Harris-Biden teamis always one day away from a major disaster. “Where Revolution is the Solution”
You may think by the title of this blog that we are devasted by the evil destruction in Turkey levied by Mother Nature, most likely resulting in over 10,000 killed, Yes we are!
But the true devastation we feel is from the Global Warmer Mongers who have yet to speak up.We are patiently waiting for them to blame the catastrophe of the Anatolian and Eurasian Plates toggling together on Global Warming.
You can bet that at the moment they are tongue tied, but soon these “Fox in the Theater types“ will scream at the top of their lungsthat it was due to man made CO2 from burning fossil fuels.Tell that to the people in Turkey.

Thai Princess coma mystery – world expert says it’s a COVID jab injury – Daily Telegraph NZ
44 year old Princess Bajrakitiyabha of Thailand collapsed while out walking her dogs on 14 December last year.
Just days after receiving her covid booster jab, the daughter of the king of Thailand collapsed and fell into a coma.
Princess Bajrakitiyabha, who is the potential heir to the Thai throne, is in a grave condition weeks after she collapsed.
Some reports suggest she had suffered a heart attack though her family were told she likely suffered a bacterial infection. None the less, six weeks later and the princess is still in a coma and being kept alive by machines.
The Royal Family have now been alerted to the fact that the princess has most likely been a victim of the jab.
Top Thai authorities including advisors to the King have been in discussions with Prof. Sucharit Bhakdi and are preparing to have the Pfizer contracts declared null and void according to reports.
If this happens Thailand will become the first country to make the contract null and void, meaning that Pfizer will become responsible for all vaccine injuries.
BRANDEN MUST COME CLEAN, HE HAS BEEN BEATEN LIKE A DRUM AND IS NO LONGER FIT FOR THE JOB. 25th Amendment Boys.
EXCLUSIVE:Former President Trump and a number of his top national security and defense officials refuted Biden administration officials’ claims that Chinese surveillance balloons briefly transited the continental United States during the Trump administration, saying it “never happened.”
Biden spreading fabricated lies. America knows that this invalid is on his last legs, doubt he will make it through 2023. That is our prediction. Watch him walk, he is weak, he can’t stand up. America has a mumbling stumbling invalid as president. What a disgusting figure.
Trump said the Biden administration is spreading these lies because “they look so bad, as usual.”
“They are incompetent,” he said.
Former Trump White House national security adviser John Bolton told Fox News Digital that he never heard of anything like this under his tenure.
“I don’t know of any balloon flights by any power over the United States during my tenure, and I’d never heard of any of that occurring before I joined in 2018,” Bolton said. “I haven’t heard of anything that occurred after I left either.”
Bolton said that if the Biden administration has “specific examples, they need to tell Congress.”
He added: “I can say with 100% certainty not during my tenure.”
11 US cities — all governed by Democratic mayors — listed among 50 most dangerous in world
Three Democrat-run U.S. cities rank in top 20 on annual list: Baltimore (#15), Memphis (#18), and Detroit (#19). Two more are among world’s 30 most dangerous: Albuquerque (#23) and St. Louis (#27).
Brandon Scott, just 38 years of age, is the mayor of Baltimore. Jim Strickland Jr., an attorney and politician, is the 64th and current mayor of Memphis, where the Memphis police department has just announced plans to permanently deactivate the unit that five of the officers involved in the vicious beating of Tyre Nichols belonged to. Mike Duggan, meanwhile, is currently serving as the mayor of Detroit.
Two more U.S. cities run by Democrats appear among the 30 most dangerous in the world: Albuquerque (#23), where 45-year-old Tim Keller serves as the 30th mayor, and St. Louis (#27), where Tishaura Oneda Jones has served as mayor since April of 2021.
Tracking back for a wider view yields a still grimmer perspective for Democrats, as another six Democrat-run cities rank among the world’s 50 most dangerous: New Orleans (#35), Oakland (#38), Milwaukee (#40), Chicago (#43), Philadelphia (#46), and Houston (#50). Again, all of these cities are run by Democrats.
Numbeo’s report contains both a Crime Index, which is an estimation of overall levels of crime in a given city, and a Safety index. A city with a high safety index is considered very safe. A city with a high crime index is considered anything but. If a city’s crime levels are lower than 20, for instance, this is considered excellent. Crime levels between 20 and 40 are considered good; crime levels between 40 and 60 are moderate; crime levels between 60 and 80 are considered high. Finally, crime levels higher than 80 are considered dangerously high. The Safety Index, meanwhile, is ranked in the completely opposite way, with scores higher than 80 indicating that a city is very safe, and scores under 20 indicating that a city is borderline uninhabitable.
Baltimore has a Crime Index score of 75.5 and a Safety Index score of 24.5. “Charm City” finds itself sandwiched between Port of Spain, the capital of Trinidad and Tobago, and Rosario, Argentina’s third-most populous city.
In 2019, then-U.S. Attorney General William Barr referred to Baltimore as the country’s “robbery capital.”Although the comment was deemed controversial by some commentators, it is amply substantiated by crime statistics. Last year, the city of 576,000 experienced a sharp spike in robberies, with robberies of convenience stores jumping by 300%. Baltimore also suffered a sharp increase in homicides.
Some 900 miles away, in Memphis, overall crime increased by more than 8% last year. By August of 2022, 4,501 crimes had been reported in the downtown area of the city, 600 more than had been reported by August of 2021, according to the city’s Data Hub.
In Detroit, more than 220 officers left the police department last year. Long known as the automobile capital of the world, Detroit has, in recent times, become more closely associated with assaults, shootings and homicides. On New Year’s Day, for instance, a total of 6 people were shot, one of them fatally. Five days later, a 16-year-old was killed and an 11-year-old was injured in yet another shooting.
Democrats have often been labeled “soft on crime” by their opponents. The latest Numbeo report will do little to stem such denunciations.
