MUSLIMS SHOCKED BY GERMAN INDULGENCE
As the Syrian etc. invasion of Merkel-mad Germany proceeded apace, even Muslis were shocked by idealistic Western tolerance of child marriage. German law generally mandated 18 as the minimum age for marriage, but Bavaria alone was reckoned to be hosting some 700 child brides, and a court in Bamberg regularized a marriage of a 24-yr Muselman to his 14-yr cousin as showing a proper respect for Syrian culture (Sunday Times, 21 viii).
“This is an appalling decision,” complained Jasvinder Sanghera, founder of Karma Nirvana, a charity helping children, girls and women to escape forced marriage and abuse. “My worry is that this sets a precedent and that it could happen in other countries too. Recognising cultural traditions does not mean accepting the unacceptable. These are children and this is paedophilia.”
MULTICULTURALISM REJECTED BY STAR FROG POLITICO
Seeking to regain the presidency of France – which he had lost in 2011 because his affair with the 3”-taller pop warbler Carla Bruni had distracted him from suppressing (let alone reversing) the 5M-strong Islamist invasion of France – the immigrant-fathered and Jewish-mothered ‘conservative’ Nicolas Sarkozy revealed his plan for harmonious race relations in France: to take the opposite approach to the UK. Mr Sarkozy laid out his vision for harmony-by-integration in a book, Tout Pour la France (Everything for France).
He wrote that his country was swamped with immigrants and that its national identity had been damaged by the tyranny of minorities. But he added: “We are not Anglo-Saxons who allow communities to live side by side while ignoring one another. It is time to engage in determined combat against multiculturalism.” Newcomers must embrace French ways,” he declared. They must assimilate “not just with nationality but also with values, culture and way of life” (Times, 24 viii).
France had long liked to contrast its ‘model’ of republican cultural integration with vague Anglo-Saxon acceptance of diversity. {In fact, both France and the UK – whatever their ‘philosophies’ -- dealt with their Mueslis chiefly by ghetto-ization.} France had until recently been moving towards greater tolerance but the pendulum swung back after Islamist terror attacks began four years ago and Marine Le Pen’s right-wing National Front surged in popularity to 20+%.
So the penitent Sarko promised for 2017 to oblige newcomers to sign an “assimilation pact”. He would end the right of family members to join immigrants and would close the door to people who tried to come to France for economic reasons. Muslim preachers would come under the authority of the interior ministry and thousands of known radicals would be locked up or tagged. Pork-free menus would be ended in schools and head-covering banned in universities.
Agreeing he opposed “rampant Islamisation,” he demanded that a ll Muslims speak French, that they be denied special times for using swimming pools, and that – if not in work or education – they be conscripted (Telegraph, 26 viii). France was at war with extremism, he said in a substantial speech at Châteaurenard: “War is war and we have to win.”
He hoped to exploit dissatisfaction with socialist President Hollande, whose popularity ratings were close to a historical low, but also to grab voters for 2017 from Marine Le Pen’s National Front. Mr Sarkozy also promised a new EU treaty with tougher frontier controls. He thus hoped to resist calls for the closure of mosques and the straightforward expulsion of criminal, unemployed, illiterate, welfare-dependent and multi-sprogged Mueslis.
Socialist Prime Minister Manual Valls wrote on his Facebook page that denouncing the burkini “in no way puts into question individual freedom” and was really about denouncing “fatal, retrograde Islamism” – thus splitting French conservatives, nationalists and 50% of French socialists from the Parisian metrosexual elite and its ‘Council of State’ which had denounced the burkini ban.
‘THE BIOLOGICAL REALITY OF RACE’
Commemorating top academic race realist Glayde Whitney, Florida State University, American Renaissance (21 viii) nicely re-published his fascinating and helpful 1999 paper on genetic race differences in humans. An extract:
....Some people in the scientific literature argue that it is a vast oversimplification to think of “Africans” as a single race — they emphasize that there is tremendous genetic differentiation, and resultant biological differences, among the native inhabitants of Africa. And that is correct, up to a point.
After all, the continent of Africa is a big place; it is the second-largest continent, with much environmental variation. It contains some of the driest and some of the most humid habitats on earth. Also some of the hottest. It has lowlands and highlands, sea level jungles and snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro. So it should come as no surprise that largely primitive people, still divided into tribes, show lots of genetic differentiation. This is a typically primitive condition of humanity.
Thousands of years ago when Europeans were still largely tribal breeding groups there was also more genetic difference between different groups — though the different races of European Caucasians are still evident to some extent. The fact remains that although there is genetic difference among Africans, as a group they hang together and are relatively very different from everyone else.
It is useful, however, to separate North Africa from what is usually called Sub-Saharan Africa. The Sahara desert is a serious geographical barrier. North of the desert, all across the southern shore of the Mediterranean, the inhabitants are largely Caucasian. In the main we know where they came from, and often we know when. For instance the Phoenicians, ancestors of modern Lebanese, colonized sections of the coast.
Later, Germanic tribes from Europe invaded and settled. The Arabs swept through. So today a hybrid, largely Caucasian population with some Negroid admixture, inhabits North Africa. The illustration on the previous page that shows the large split between Africans and all other groups is based on Sub-Saharan Africans.
Let us now look at genetic distances within the African cluster. The top four groups — labeled Pygmy, W. African, Bantu, and Elongate (also known as Nilotic) are the Negro race of traditional anthropology and are referred to below as Blacks. There is substantial gene flow among them but also racial differentiation as indicated by the genetic distances.
Somewhat different from the Blacks are the Ethiopian and Hottentot peoples. They are more brownish and yellow than black in skin color and are thought by some to be remnants of an ancient pre-Negroid population. The recent expansion of Blacks, mostly Bantus and Elongates, has exterminated most of these people. Their genes remain concentrated in the Horn of Africa — Ethiopia and Somalia, and as a dwindling remnant in Southern Africa. The Ethiopians are today a hybrid population, with substantial Negroid and Semitic gene admixture.
What I have here labeled Hottentot are often referred to as the Khoids, or Khoisanids, which means Hottentots and Bushman. The remaining Bushman are desert gleaners while the Hottentots herd cattle. The Hottentot race is almost all gone today, replaced and exterminated in recent times by the invading Blacks. There was some intermating, however; enough so that even in America you can sometimes see the results of Hottentot genes.
In many characteristics Hottentots are biologically specialized for life in a hot and dry climate. One of these distinctive adaptations is steatopygia, which literally means “fat buttocks.” This is a solution to the problem of how to store fat in preparation for times of little food and still be able to shed body heat in a hot climate. Most of the fat is bundled in one place — the buttocks — leaving the rest of the body lean so as to make it easy to lose heat. It is the human equivalent of the camel’s hump.
By contrast, Eurasian women put on a layer of subcutaneous fat all over the body. It is better than a fur coat in providing insulation against the arctic cold but makes it harder to lose heat in a hot climate. These differences in fat storage strategies are biological realities of race. Another biological peculiarity of the Hottentots is what is delicately called the “Hottentot apron” — four-and-a-half inches of dangling labia. This, too, is a biological reality....
{Glayde was a courageous as well as dutiful scholar and, along with Richard Lynn and myself, helped in the last great battle in London for free speech about genetic and racial differences -- a 1999 battle sadly resulting in closure of what was to be the last Galton Institute conference having any significant race-realistic psychological component.}
HUNGARY GETS TOUGHER ON “POISONOUS” PUMIGRANTS
Hungary would build a new, “more massive” fence on its southern borders to defend against a possible surge in the number of would-be migrants, said the prime minister, Viktor Orbán (Guardian, 26 viii). Orbán, who previously described migrants as “poison”, said on state radio that there might soon be a “greater need for security” and the fortified barrier would be able to stop “several hundreds of thousands of people” at the same time, if needed.
He said such a surge could take place if, for example, Turkey allowed the millions of ‘refugees’ living there to head for western Europe. “Then, if we can’t do it nicely, we have to hold them back by force,” Orbán said. “And we will do it, too.”
Hungary built fences protected with razor wire on its southern borders with Serbia and Croatia in 2015, when nearly 400,000 people passed through the country on their way west. The fences had greatly slowed the flow of people entering Hungary, which was also beefing up its police force with 3,000 new “border hunters” to tighten control at the fences and introducing legislation that would allow officials to return migrants to Serbia if they were caught within five miles (8km) of the border.
TRUMP FALLS BACK ON BLACKS
Trailing in US polls -- and having failed to explain how he would root out political correctness from state-funded universities, persuade Mexico to pay for a 5K-mile wall, and keep refugee-generating Solunnis and Shitites from each other’s throats -- Republican nominee ‘The Donald’ began to make inner-city gun violence and the promise of law and order a central plank of his campaign (Observer, 28 viii).
In his speech to the GOP convention in Cleveland in July, he had said: “In the President’s hometown of Chicago, more than 2,000 people have been the victims of shootings this year alone. And almost 4,000 have been killed in the Chicago area since [Barack Hussein Obama] took office.” According to the Chicago police department, Trump said, homicides were up 49% in 2016. Chicago recorded 473 homicides for all of 2015. At least 2,702 people had been shot in the city in 2016, according to a tally kept by the Chicago Tribune newspaper.
The Tribune also published details of shooting incidents involving police officers in the city between 2010 and 2015. The vast majority of those shot in such incidents, the newspaper found, were Black men or boys. By August, Trump was developing his law-and-order theme into a concerted – if quixotic, given his campaign’s flirtation with the ‘far right’ – attempt to win African-American support.
Addressing a largely White audience at a rally in Michigan, he said: “At the end of four years, I guarantee you I will get over 95% of the African American vote. What do you lose by trying something new like Trump?” In Iowa, he said “There are millions of African-Americans in this country who have succeeded” but also that government had failed Black communities, with almost 40% of African American children living in poverty.
For good measure,Trump also claimed that his rival Hillary Clinton was a “bigot” who didn’t care about minority communities. {At this rate of conciliatory progress, The Donald might even prise enough cash out of the GOP by November to begin to match the vast sums available to the Clintons from globalized peecee slavedrivers; but just what national problems he could solve would have got lost in the fog of party-political warfare.
In line with Trump’s new-found moderation, Britain’s UKIP leader-in-semi-retirement, Nigel Farage, was given three minutes to address Trump’s troops in Mississippi – for ‘far right’ Farage, brave and longsuffering though he was, could be relied on to avoid such terms as ‘race,’ ‘genes’ and ‘IQ.’}
