Facebook BLOCKS Oz Land for News - The right of Facebook to ACT - Modern technology

Sky News: Reports " Facebook: Facebook exec Nicola Mendelsohn defends firm from 'school bully' accusations after it blocks Oz news media.....The social media giant has blocked users on its platform from viewing or sharing links to domestic and international news content. "

Lets Get Real:

The problem is that the Australian Government does not understand the nature of the World Wide Web, its about people connecting each other through the web and the stories they highlight on the web.  The Oz Government is asking Facebook to pay for the links of others, why should they, if the Government wants to make money for the OLD NEWS, then it should charge the customers for making these links.  Of course if they did that they would be politically speaking DEAD IN THE WATER, the readers or viewers, do not see why they should pay for linking stories from the old press in to the modern platforms like Facebook.  Why should Facebook PAY when it is helping its customers, the Oz Government is showing that it is out of its DEPTH, one wonders if the Governor General acting on behalf of the Queen should sack the Government.

NASA has reached MARS - Next step manned flight to Mars - Mars

BBC News: Reports " Nasa's Perseverance rover lands on Mars "

Lets Get Real:

The most advanced robot yes has landed on the Red Planet, Mars.   They will be looking for signs that there was some kind of life on Mars billions of years ago.  If they find a statue, expect calls for a manned flight, at most the robot will be looking for signs that there was micro life on the planet before it before it came to its present condition.   If President Biden was far reaching in his thoughts, he should be pushing for a manned flight to take place during his Administration, this blog is not expecting such kind of ambition, he is no JFK, who wanted to place a man on the mood in the 1960s.  Our future is SPACE, man kind needs to explore the Galaxy are we ALONE? Is there life out there, or are we back end of the Galaxy, and there are millions of Galaxies.  It is time for man to seize the day when it comes to SPACE, our future is out there.

Lets Get Real:

The Israeli side will know that the good times under Trump are over, that Biden whatever he says will try to return to the Obama Nuclear Deal.   Thus the one of the two ACE's that Israel has in the Mid Terms in 2022, the Biden will not want to be seen as a sell out before then.  One can suspect that the Biden Administration is already in secret talks with Tehran to return to the deal, but the Oval knows that if it lifts the Trump sanctions without some concession from Tehran it will be seen as sell out of the first order.   Thus expect Tehran to make a soft concession and for that to be taken by Biden as a way to to revoke the Trump sanctions, this might happen just before or just after the Mid terms.  The Biden Administration will want to see Israel good relationship with the other Arab Countries, this also gives Israel an ACE, Israel and its Arab NOW friends see Iran as a threat, thus the Israelis with the help and assistance of the Gulf States could attack Iran before its secret nuclear planning bears fruit.   The prospect of a nuclear Iran will be to much for Israel and its friends.   This development could lead to a problem for the Biden Oval, does it support ISRAEL or is it critical of Israel, Democrats will be worried that voters will see Biden as a modern Neville Chamberlain, if he sells out Israel.   Also there is the problem of AFGHANISTAN; will Biden who went out of his way to undermine Obama when he was Vice - President when it come to Afghanistan; keep US troops in Kabul or will he do a President Ford, who saw the US runout of South Vietnam;  watch as the last Americans leave Afghanistan by helicopter with the Taliban at the door.  The Biden Administration has not had a foreign policy crisis yet, it will come, they always do.
