Alyssa studied under Professor Goober

BULLY BOY PRESS & CEDRIC'S BIG MIX -- THE KOOL AID TABLE

PROFESSIONAL HAGTRESS ALYSSA MILANO IS VERY, VERY UPSET THAT JOHN MCCAIN IS BEING INSULTED BY U.S. PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP.

WHILE STUDYING UNDER PROFESSOR GOOBER TONY DANZA -- WHO HAD A CHASTE BUT SIGNIFICANT AFFAIR WITH EUGENE MCCARTHY AFTER EUGENE BECAME A NEOCON -- ALYSSA WAS TAUGHT THAT JOHN MCCAIN WAS A HERO.

IT DIDN'T MATTER THAT HE CALLED THE VIETNAMESE "G**KS" OR THAT HE OPPOSED DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. OR THAT HE WAS JUST AN ALL AROUND RACIST.

PROFESSOR GOOBER SAID HE WAS A HERO AND THAT WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE HAGTRESS.

REACHED FOR COMMENT TODAY, HAGTRESS ALYSSA SCREAMED AT THESE REPORTERS, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN PROFESSOR GOOBER WASN'T ACCREDITED!"

FROM THE TCI WIRE:

Friday's snapshot noted the fallout over the sinking of the ferry which led to protesters calling out Iraqi President Barham Salah to his face. AFP explains, "Scores of protesters swarmed Iraq’s president and the governor on Friday, forcing them to leave the site of the accident. The crowd threw stones and shoes at the governor’s car, which sped off hitting two people, one of whom was taken to hospital. Dozens of students held a silent protest on Sunday on the campus of the university of Mosul, dressed in black to mourn the victims." Alissa J. Rubin and Falih Hassan (NEW YORK TIMES) report:

In a rare show of deference to the anger of Mosul citizens over government abuses, the Iraqi Parliament on Sunday voted overwhelmingly to remove the province’s governor, citing accusations of corruption, self-dealing and negligence.

Although Mosul citizens had pleaded with the central government to remove the governor for more than two years, it was only after a ferry disaster brought angry citizens into the street that senior political figures decided to act.

They note that Nuafal Hammadi "had held the job since 2015." They fail to note how the previous governor departed or that this was not the first government effort to remove Hammadi.

December 28, 2017, KURDISTAN 24 reported:

Following the no-confidence vote by the Nineveh Provincial Council against the governor, and the Iraqi Prime Minister’s decision to freeze his duties, a Kurd was appointed the acting governor.

On November 1, the Nineveh Provincial Council in majority vote decided to sack the province’s governor, Nofal Hammadi over alleged corruption and damaging public property.

However, Hammadi refused to step down and continues to function as the governor of Mosul.

And eleven months earilier, THE DAILY SABAH had reported:

Governor of northern Iraqi province of Nineveh Nofal Hammadi was removed from office Wednesday by the provincial council.

"Nineveh provincial council made a decision to remove the governor in absentia," a Nineveh councilman Hassan al-Sabawi said.

The removal efforts have been going on for two years. Yet some see the latest events as happening 'quickly.' For example . . .

A couple of updates on the aftermath of Mosul's ferry tragedy last week to follow; background is contained in the thread posted below.

So that didn't take too long: PM Abd al-Mahdi petitions parliament to remove Ninawa Governor Nufal al-Akub from office for failure to carry out his duties competently & conscienciously. I'm pretty confident parliament will follow through.

Didn't take too long?

"Although Mosul citizens had pleaded with the central government to remove the [Ninevah] governor for more than two years, it was only after a ferry disaster brought angry citizens into the street that senior political figures decided to act."

Many would disagree with the assertion that it didn't take long.

The previous governor was Atheel al-Nujaifi. For those who missed it, he was also removed from office. KURDISTAN 24 explained, "The Iraqi Parliament in May 2015 removed Nujaifi from his post as the Governor of Nineveh following the fall of Mosul and the province into the hands of the Islamic State (IS) in mid-2014."

منذ اكثر من ٦٠ سنة يوجد في الموصل واجبات معروفة للمحافظ وهي رئاسة لجنة الفيضان وهذه اللجنة تضم مدير الري ومدير البلدية والقائمقام ومدير الشرطة والدفاع المدني .. وأنا استحدثت قسم خاص بالبنية التحتية وإدارة الكوارث وألحقته باللجنة .. ومع بداية موسم الربيع تراقب اللجنة كميات الماء الواردة إلى الموصل وتأثيرها على السداد وتراقب ايضا رفع المرافق السياحية في الغابات للمنشآت التي قد تعترض مجرى الماء او تؤثر على حياة المواطنين .. والمعتاد ان الجزيرة السياحية يتوقف العمل فيها قبل ان تصل كميات الماء ١٠٠٠ متر مكعب في الثانية .. ويوم امس كان الإطلاق ١٤٠٠ متر مكعب
وفي الربيع يتذكر أهل الموصل انني كنت أقوم بجولات نهرية والبعض يتصورها ترفيهية ولكنه سياق سبقني اليه المحافظون قبل الاحتلال وهو تفقد مجرى النهر من داخله والاطلاع على الالتزام بتعليمات الفيضان .
ولكن مع الأسف الإدارة الموجودة لا تعي أهمية التنسيق بين تلك الدوائر .. فمدير الري ليس لديه سلطة على البلدية ولا المرافق السياحية ومدير البلدية يحتاج حلقة الوصل مع الري ولايعرف ماهي استعدادات الدفاع المدني ..
السبب الحقيقي هو عدم استيعاب ادارة المحافظة لاهمية سياقات العمل والخبرة المتراكمة بالإضافة إلى المكاتب الاقتصادية التي تمنح المستثمرين نفوذا يتجاوز طاقة صغار الموظفين .
