$60 billion coal deal between Communist China and Australia. Evil US taxpayer to pay billions though had nothing to do with it.

• Only a vague passing reference to the environment--late in the article. No mention of the Maldives sinking close by, well promoted as reason to hate Americans and destroy their civilization. The White House said fine and rushed to rip billions from US taxpayer wages and "hand over" cash for 'climate' reparations, (you know due to evil coal and stuff). Now:
  

BBC: "An Australian firm has signed a $60bn (AUS$69bn; £38bn) deal to supply coal to Chinese power stations.

Clive Palmer, chairman of the company, Resourcehouse, said it was Australia's

• "biggest ever export contract".

Under the deal, the firm will build a new mining complex to give China Power International Development (CPI) 30m tonnes of coal a year for 20 years....

• But the lucrative Sino-Australian deal will
  
• almost certainly
• disappoint some environmental groups, says the BBC's Phil Mercer in Sydney.

They believe Australia's reliance on plentiful reserves of coal, both for domestic electricity generation and for export, should be reduced in favour of renewable sources of energy."...

• How polite and unstrident they are now....whatever happened to urgent climate holocaust caused by burning coal especially near the Himalayas, the Maldives and others?

• Now that Copenhagen is over, China goes back to belching coal into the atmosphere non-stop.

The so-called leaders of the US continue blaming its citizens for the world's problems, punish US families by stealing food from their table and
"hand it over" to corrupt dictators, UN crooks, and billionaire hedge fund slobs. ed.
