John McLean: The eagle has floundered


Labourite Chatham Islands CEO comes a criminal cropper. Where are the coppers?

The phrase “The Eagle has Landed” indicates successful completion of a difficult or important task. Astronaut Neil Armstrong first spoke those words on 20 July 1969, from the moon to Mission Control in Houston, Texas. He did so to communicate that the Apollo 11 Lunar Module, named “Eagle”, had successfully touched down on the Moon.

Neil Armstrong died in 2012 but will be fondly remembered and revered for at least as long as the Western Civilization lasts. Without Western Civilization and the likes of Neil Armstrong, humans would have barely escaped the Dark Ages.
