Hello Australia!! - Deadly bloodshed at a mall in Munich, police hunt at least two gunmen - Trump's fascistic speech shocks even those who might have been allies - The Middle East might have recorded the world's hottest temperatures - And more in your CareerSpot Global News Briefs:

Authorities have raised the death toll in a shooting at a mall in Munich, Germany to at least nine lives lost.  The story is still active, and police are still hunting the gunman or gunmen.  Mobile video from the scene shows a black-clad man with a handgun opening fire on panicked civilians outside the McDonald's at the Olympia Mall, in a part of town that was originally built up for the 1972 Olympics and turned over to the city afterward.  Another clip shows a man in black, possibly the same man, on top of a parking structure and again shooting a handgun. 

It probably shouldn't be ignored that this happened on the fifth anniversary of Anders Breivik's attack in Oslo, Norway and on and island hosting a Labor party youth camp.  The cowardly white supremacist scum murdered 77 people that day, mostly defenseless children.  And there are competing claims about what the gunman in the Munich attack was shouting:  Some are claiming he said "Allahu Akbar", Arabic for "God is great" - and others say the gunman yelled, "F**king Turks!" and other xenophobic obscenities.  And then later, police reportedly claimed the gunmen had "Islamist" backgrounds.

The people being slowly evacuated from the mall were clearly white, black, Christian, Muslim, European, Asian.  Police went on social media to broadcast emergency messages in German, English, and Turkish.  The only other certainty is that the victims all bled the same color - and one of the dead might have been one of the attackers. 

There's revulsion from across the political spectrum over fascist demagogue Donald Trump's acceptance speech at the final night of the Republican National Convention.  Ranting about dangers both non-existent and overstated, Trump promised the suckers that only he could save them from chaos and savagery.  Ultra-conservative pundit Eric Erickson likened it to you-know-who's opinion of Weimar Germany in the 1930s;  Some said it marked the end of Ronald Reagan-style conservative optimism;  Fareed Zakaria said Trump would turn the world's most powerful nation into a Banana Republic.  But the most-telling endorsement came from the infamous former leader of the Ku Klux Klan David Duke, who said that Trump agreed with the things he's been saying for years.

The Washington Post is not waiting until October to make its call in the US Presidential Election:  Calling Trump a "unique threat to American democracy", and unequivocally stating that "a Trump presidency would be dangerous for the nation and the world".  The editorial board for the US Capital's newspaper of record says Trump's views are "wrong in their diagnosis of America’s problems and dangerous in their proposed solutions", and any one of his numerous faults should be disqualifying.  It also lamented that Trump managed to get this far, lamenting the fragility of American democracy.  The editorial didn't specifically endorse Hillary Clinton, but made it clear that Trump must not become president.

Trump doesn't believe in Global Warming:  And yet two locations in the Middle East have hit 54 degrees, which would be the hottest temperatures ever recorded in the Eastern Hemisphere and maybe the world.  The temperature in Mitribah, Kuwait, surged Thursday to a blistering 54 Celsius (129.2 F Degrees).  And on Friday in Basra, Iraq, the mercury soared to 53.9 Celsius (129.0 F Degrees).  A reading of 56,7 C degrees was measured in Death Valley, California a century ago, but scientists increasingly do not believe it was an accurate measurement.

Turkey's deputy prime minister is warning that there will be more arrests, detentions, and firings in the wake of the failed coup.  At least 60,000 state employees have been detained or suspended in the purge that's been roundly criticized by Turkey's neighbors and allies in NATO.  Nurettin Canikli continues to parrot the government line that the coup was the work of US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen, a former friend of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

China is demolishing buildings at Larung Gar, the largest center of learning in Tibetan Buddhism.  The London-based Free Tibet group uploaded photos to Twitter and video footage on YouTube that show flattened cabins where Buddhist Monks and Nuns at the institute once lived.  Beijing ordered the local authorities to cut the number of Larung Gar residents by half to 5,000 because of concerns over "overcrowding".
