Pl read the results of impotent gavamnas --

THE Victorian bushfire emergency will get worse before it gets better as fires continue to burn out of control, Premier John Brumby says.

'Stay-at-home bushfire policy best'

The Victorian Government and authorities' have long maintained people who live in bushland areas should plan to either stay to defend their homes during a bushfire or leave well before the fire becomes a threat.

But with the high death toll from the Victorian fires over the weekend, that state's authorities say they will review the policy.''

11:40pm--Mon 9 Feb

HUNDREDS of firefighters are battling to save homes from three bushfires threatening communities northeast of Melbourne.

lionnoisy SG

Several streets on the eastern outskirts of Healesville, 60km from Melbourne, were under heavy ember attack from a fire near the town this afternoon.

The affected streets are near the edge of the Yarra Ranges National park.

dumbdumb! SG

received an email from a friend from one of the affected town:

lionnoisy SG

1.any plans to contain the spread of the fires eg fire breaks etc

2.few hundred ADF personnels is enough for this state disaster or

national scale?few bulldozers ,few APC etc ONLY???

PREMIER John Brumby has announced a royal commission into the Victorian bushfires amid suggestions that long-standing strategies for dealing with fire emergencies may have failed with catastrophic consequences for some people.

As the death toll from Australia's worst peacetime disaster climbed to 130, Mr Brumby said the traditional advice to households under threat from bushfires — "stay and defend or leave early" — may be reviewed.

........................

My humble questions are :-

1) What is it to you if the fires are contained or otherwise? Do you live in Australia?

2) What level of education do you have? Seriously.

Don't you fucking dare call me mate, you dirty cunt. You've finally managed to reach your true lowness by living it up with your fucked-up bullshit while people are dying.

If I ever met your parents I'd give them each a couple of good tight slaps and then sterilise both of them with a rusty fork to save the world. They're a pair of filthy cunts too.

No way, i got dibs on that!

WTF is your major malfunction, Lionnoisy? ppl are fecking dying and you are politicising this issue? That fucked up whore of a mother didnt raise you too good? Or she got gang raped by a few diggers and produce a swine of a son which is you?

Gedanken SG

My theory is that she blew the dog and shat him out.

I have mixed feelings about this thread. In one sense lionnoisy has provided some links to solid information, useful for general following of the terrible goings on. In another sense lionnoisy has demonstrated complete naivity to the situation at hand. It's hard to understand why he would be so naive after reading so many news sources. I for one would appreciate the news sources without the lousy opinion tied to it.

All this talk about logistics and the ADF is utter tripe. You could have placed a million ADF and CAF members in front of the fires, and you would have ended up with a million charred bodies. Lionnoisy, you have absolutely no concept of the sheer hellish conditions and how to tackle them.

"can u guy tell Vic Premier and Rudd wake up!!"

Please shut the fuck up you stupid prick.

lionnoisy SG

Again u guys label me anti--oz.

I have critized their drugs problems,military hardware performance and procurements

etc.Like the brush fires,i quote every things fr Oz main stram medias,

trying my best not to be bias.

I posted a thread on last Sat 07 Feb evening, calling ADF shall be called out

to help fighting the brush fire.MOD deleted the thread.

On Sunday,i started this thread.I made a mistake,thinking ADF already on the ground.

In fact,ADF Task force met the press on Monday morning.

Is it a little bit late,too little of men power and equipments?

09/02/2009: DEFENCE SUPPORT TO VICTORIAN BUSHFIRE CRISIS

After so many deaths,is it better Evacuated earlier than too late,

and evacuated more than too little?

The authority said they will review the 1''.Leave earlier ''

Or 2.''STAY and Defend policy''.This is good.

But before the comopletion of the review of evacuation procedures,

will it be on a safe side to evacuate people EARLIER who are exposed

to credible risks?

Towns like Yarrn Glen,Healsville etc are currently in the hand of mercy

of Mother Nature.Any change in wind direction and speed will

cause deaths again,like in Maryvilles ,Kinglake etc.

Since no one can tell when the fires will come,it is better prudent

than taking risks!
