TOP UNI BLASTS PEECEE
The University of Chicago sent new students a blunt statement opposing some of the hallmarks of campus political correctness (New York Times, 27 viii). “Our commitment to academic freedom means that we do not support so-called trigger warnings, we do not cancel invited speakers because their topics might prove controversial, and we do not condone the creation of intellectual ‘safe spaces’ where individuals can retreat from ideas and perspectives at odds with their own,” John Ellison, dean of students, wrote to incoming undergrads.
It was a not-so-veiled rebuke to the protests calling for limits on what kinds of speech should be condoned on campus, and who should be allowed to speak, that had rocked Yale, Wesleyan, Oberlin and many other universities.
Some alumni, dismayed by the trend, had withheld donations from their alma maters. The Chicago letter echoed policies that were already in place there and at a number of other universities calling for “the freedom to espouse and explore a wide range of ideas.” But its stark wording, coming from one of the nation’s leading universities, and in a routine correspondence that usually contained nothing more contentious than a dining hall schedule, felt to people on all sides like a statement.
Kevin Gannon, a history professor at Grand View University in Des Moines, dismissed the letter on his website as “a manifesto looking for an audience,” one that “relies on caricature and bogeymen rather than reason and nuance.”
But the Heritage Foundation wrote on Facebook that the letter “will make you stand up and cheer”; and the New York Magazine reckoned ([/daily/intelligencer/2016/08/the-university-of-chicagos-anti-safe-space-letter-matters.html]26 viii) “The U.Chicago letter could be a useful nudge to help get other, more timorous university administrators to stand up and do their jobs.”
MAD MULTICULTI MERKEL MEETS MAYHEM
The German chancellor, Angela Merkel, was obliged to postpone announcement of her candidacy for her country’s 2017 elections amid serious disquiet among her ruling coalition partners at her “welcome policy” towards refugees (Sunday Times, 28 viii). Der Spiegel, the influential German news magazine, claimed that the Bavarian Christian Social Union (CSU), ‘junior’ partners of Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU), had still to endorse Merkel as their joint candidate. The Reichskanzlerin had hoped to be confirmed at her own party’s conference in December, but this might have to be postponed. The German general election was expected in September 2017. Merkel, chancellor since 2005, was expected by cognoscenti metrowallahs to seek a fourth term at the helm of German Empire IV.
Merkel’s latest woes came at the end of a week in which she heard first hand of the impact of her policy on her neighbours. The German leader met 15 EU leaders in Berlin and in Italy, Estonia, Poland and the Czech Republic. Her “grand tour” was ostensibly to prepare for a summit in Slovakia on September 16th at which the 27 remaining EU members would agree a joint stance on Brexit. Britain was not invited.
Instead, the pious but powerful Merkel was forced to listen to a tirade of complaints from central European countries resisting attempts to take in more A/A migrants. Even the defence minister of Austria, Germany’s closest ally, voiced direct criticism of Merkel’s stance on immigration. “Germany must say clearly: the borders are closed,” said Hans Peter Doskozil.
Viktor Orban, Hungary’s fervently anti-migration prime minister, vowed to turn the fence that he had erected along the border with Serbia in an effort to stop asylum seekers into a “robust defence system.” “The borders cannot be protected with flowers and cuddly toys, but need policemen, soldiers and weapons,” he said.
PARISIANS PROTEST PEECEE
50K signatures of north-Parisian property owners were quickly forthcoming in protest against a socialist scheme to house A/A migrants in wooden shacks near apartment blocks where flats often cost £3M (Daily Mail, 1 ix). Evidently the joys of diversity and multiculti integration were not on the agenda of the good republicans, who said they were apprehensive of the noise, filth and crime that would be involved – not to mention the likely reduction in the value of their bijou homes.
“There will be two migrant camps, one for men only, and one for women and children,” said Ms Hidalgo, the socialist mayorette who was a close ally of President Francois Hollande and had to deal with the 100 new A/A’s who arrived daily in Paris demanding food and shelter. The French capital was already inundated with migrants who slept rough among their discarded rubbish in city parks, or under flyovers or railway bridges.
PEECEE FINISHING?
As Mad Multiculti Mutti Merkel found herself in only third place in north German elections (behind both Social Democrats and the anti-A/A-immigrant Alternative for Germany), historian Tim Stanley went probably further than any other major Western columnist in identifying and delineating the widespread rise of nationalism and the decline of out-of-control ‘liberalism’ which had done so much to generate the tyrannous anti-racism under which the world cowered (Daily Telegraph, 3 ix). A sample, on PeeCee:
"....in recent decades liberals have used the state to promote political correctness. At best it’s a new code of manners for a multicultural society. At worst, it is thought-policing, attempting to make people say things they don’t really think. Prejudices have not been so much confronted as suppressed.
....The communists made the mistake of believing they could make everyone equal by declaring them to be so. Liberals thought society was more tolerant because they banned vile words from the public sphere. Only now are liberals learning that this is not how human beings work. The revival of nationalism might indicate that people do still define themselves by ethnicity.
Or maybe it doesn’t. It’s also possible that voters are reacting rationally – rather than emotionally – to policy failure. Which brings us to Brexit. Since the June 23 referendum, liberals have hit us with academic papers, speeches, TV documentaries etc analysing why the British people voted Leave, and the answer seems to be everything from racism to class to love of imperial weights and measures.
Few liberals have yet to concede that it might have had something to do with the EU being rubbish. The EU, the greatest liberal project of them all, simply doesn’t work. There’s nothing inherently liberal about trying to make 28 countries operate as one, but liberals chose to make it their crusade. The British see its flaws and voted out.
It’s possible that the same cold calculation lies behind the success of Donald Trump. Polls suggest that a significant proportion of his voters don’t actually like him. But they’re angry at disappearing jobs, ceaseless wars and illegal immigration. They look at Hillary Clinton, one of the West’s last true liberals left standing, and they see someone responsible for a lot of their problems. On balance, they sigh, better him than her.
For me, I would prefer to praise liberalism than see it buried. It has done a lot of good for civilisation; many of its tenets are civilisation. But political traditions have to adapt to survive. Liberals, alas, have refused to accept their mistakes. They prefer to cast them as moral necessities and question the decency of those who challenge them. Their opponents are not all animals. Their ex-voters are not all monstrous fools. And liberals must learn that you’ll never win a voter over if you keep calling them stupid"
MULTICULTI MP EXPOSED
Prominent Labourite and Privy Councillor Keith Vaz, Britain’s longest-standing ‘Asian’ (in fact Indian [Goan-parented]) parliamentarian, stood down as Chairman of the Home Office Select Committee of the Commons when the Sunday Mirror (4 ix) front-paged its ‘sting’ proof of his using rent boys and hard drugs – no doubt to the embarrassment of his wife and children. Cambridge-graduated lawyer Vaz, 60, had said he was a washing machine salesman called Jim. The unctuous though probably hardworking expense-claimer had first come to wide attention for his censorious support of book-burning Mueslis. Wikipedia:
"Shortly after being elected in 1989, Vaz led a march of several thousands of Muslims in Leicester calling for Salman Rushdie's book The Satanic Verses to be banned. According to Rushdie's autobiography Joseph Anton, as quoted by Douglas Murray in The Spectator, Vaz had earlier promised his support against the fatwa. Vaz said, in that phone conversation, that what had happened was ‘appalling, absolutely appalling,’ and promised his ‘full support’.
A few weeks later, however, he was one of the main speakers at a demonstration against The Satanic Verses attended by over three thousand Muslims, and described that event as ‘one of the great days in the history of Islam and Great Britain.’
The [left but robustly low-class] Mirror’s exposé had been triggered by Vaz saying he would advocate decriminalization of brothels and their ‘sex workers.’ {A modern ‘liberal’ in thought and deed! – Rushdie needed to spend three years hiding in Oxford colleges from the likes of Vaz before MI5 estimated that the mad-Muesli threat to his life had abated. Needless to say, MSM quickly forgot/suppressed Britain’s first intimation of Muesli invasion; but ordinary mortals remembered, so in 1996 I received the occasional phone call of support for The g Factor from ‘Salman Rushdie’....}

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.’}

BLACK WRITER ADMITS BLACK COUNTRIES HOPELESS
Chigozie Obioma, writing in "Foreign Policy", August 9, 2016 says:
"....Early African-American intellectuals and cultural elites saw that the future of their race could not be advanced by endless protests or marches of “equality” or “justice.” It could only be done through the restoration of the trampled dignity of the black man. Great men like Marcus Garvey, W. E. B. Du Bois, and Malcolm X all knew that a people is only respected when it has a nation worthy of respect. A man who lives in a shack cannot expect to be treated with respect at a palace. They knew that for us to reclaim power we must first reclaim dignity and that this comes through the construction of a solid black state with a demonstrable level of development and prosperity–and which can stand as a powerful advocate for the global black.
Today, no such state exists.
Nigeria, the most populous black nation on Earth, is on the brink of collapse. The machineries that make a nation exist, let alone succeed, have all eroded. One might argue that the nation’s creation by self-seeking white imperialists engendered its failure from the beginning, as I did in my recent novel. But this is only a part of the cause. A culture of incompetence, endemic corruption, dignified ineptitude, and, chief among all, destructive selfishness and greed has played a major role in its unravelling. The same, sadly, can be said for most other African nations. States like Zimbabwe, Cameroon, and Equatorial Guinea are farcical democracies ruled by men who exclusively cater to their interests and those of their clipped circles....."
FRANCE STIRS TO CONFRONT ISLAMISM
The city of Cannes criminalized the wearing of the embonpoint-covering ‘burkini’ on its beaches, citing not any terror threat but just the symbolism of the saggy sacking which gave other bathers a startling reminder of Islamists’ hostile insistence that they would not be integrating with the modern West and its post-1900 general acceptance of female equality. The ban was subsequently upheld by a local court (Guardian, 16 viii) and supported by socialist President Hollande.
Laurence Rossignol, the minister for women’s rights, condemned the full-body swimsuits as “profoundly archaic” and a political manifesto for another form of society. Manuel Valls, the country's Prime Minister, also attacked the burkini for 'not being compatible with the values of France and the Republic.'
Some ten burkinied women were chucked off beaches in Cannes and nearby places and several were fined £32; and an Algerian businessman game for confrontation with Republican secularism said he would pay all such fines for Mueslies, challenging France to dispense prison sentences instead of useless financial penalties.
Valls went to Marseille to say that burkinis were “expressions of an archaic vision of women in public places … The burkini is not a new swimwear fashion; it’s the transmission of a political project, against society, founded notably upon the subjection of women. Some people try to portray those who wear them as victims, as though we were calling liberty into question. But there is no liberty to subjugate women.”
In nearby Corsica, natives expressed their own rejection of the symbolic aggression of the burkini by taking photos of Mueslie women in their sacks – provoking retaliation by north-African heavies and a riot involving some 500 which went on for hours till the Islamists retreated to their ghetto surrounded by a cordon of 100 police. Cars were burned, seven people were badly injured and five men were arrested on charges of armed assault and faced trial in September.
JIHADISTS PIG-IGNORANT EVEN OF KORAN
Leaked ISICK documents from Syria showed that 70% of the ultra-brutal outfit’s jihad recruits had hardly any knowledge of Islam, and that some even had to read The Koran for Dummies to learn about the religion. An analysis of recruitment forms from the terror group revealed that many IS militants did not even have a basic knowledge of the Koran or hadith -- the sayings and actions of Mahomet (Daily Mail, 15 viii).
The documents were acquired by the Syrian opposition site Zaman al-Wasl and relayed to the Associated Press. Out of 3,000 recruits, they showed that only 24% had even an 'intermediate knowledge' of Islam with just 5% considered 'advanced students' of the religion. Only five recruits overall were listed as having memorised the Koran – the basic duty of pious Islamists.
At the height of the ISICK drive for foot soldiers in 2013 and 2014, typical recruits had included a group of Frenchmen who went bar-hopping with their recruiter back home, a recent European convert who described himself as queer, and two Britons who ordered The Koran for Dummies and Islam for Dummies from Amazon to prepare themselves for blood-soaked jihad. Their intake process complete, they were grouped in safe houses as a stream of ISICK imams came in to indoctrinate them, according to court testimony.
An apparently idiotic and spaced-out 32-year-old European recruit, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said: 'I realised that I was in the wrong place when they began to ask me questions on these forms like "When you die, who should we call?'' He added he thought he was joining a group to fight President Bashar Assad and help Syrians, not the Islamic State. The former recruit said new recruits were shown ISICK propaganda videos on Islam, and the visiting imams repeatedly praised martyrdom.
The terror group's most notorious new supporters appeared to have an equally tenuous link with religion. Mohamed Lahouaiyej Bouhlel, who killed 85 people by plowing a truck into a Bastille Day crowd in Nice, France, was described by family and neighbors as indifferent to religion, volatile and prone to drinking sprees, with a love for salsa dancing and a reported boyfriend.
Other recruits included 10 young men from the eastern French city of Strasbourg, all recruited by a man named Mourad Fares. One of them, Karim Mohammad-Aggad, described bar-hopping in Germany with Fares. He told investigators that IS recruiters used 'smooth talk' to persuade him. He'd travelled with his younger brother and friends to Syria in late 2013. Two died in Syria, and within a few months, seven returned to France and were arrested.
Mohammad-Aggad's brother, 23-year-old Foued, returned to Paris and was one of the three men who stormed the Bataclan dance club in a night of attacks November 13, 2015, that killed 130 people. Mohammed-Aggad told a court, before being sentenced to nine years in prison: 'My religious beliefs had nothing to do with my departure. Islam was used to trap me like a wolf.'
IS data shows Karim and his brother Foued were among eight in the Strasbourg group listed as having only 'basic' knowledge of Sharia. Expressing a common sentiment shared by many Europeans of North African descent, Mohammed-Aggad told the court he felt like an immigrant in Algeria and 'a dirty Arab' in France. After just a few months in Syria, he said he left ISIS because he was treated by the extremists as an 'apostate' — someone who had renounced his religion.
When pressed by the judge on his knowledge of Shariah and how ISIS implements it, Mohammad-Aggad, a former gas station attendant, appeared dumbfounded, saying repeatedly: 'I don't have the knowledge to answer the question.' One of his co-defendants, Radouane Taher, was also pressed by the judge on whether beheadings carried out by the ISIS group conformed to Islamic law. He couldn't say for sure, answering: 'I don't have the credentials.'
The trial of longtime friends Mohammed Ahmed and Yusuf Sarwar, from the British city of Birmingham, revealed the 22-year-olds had ordered The Koran for Dummies and Islam for Dummies books in preparation for their trip to join beheadists in Syria. They were arrested on their return to Britain and convicted in 2014 of terrorism offenses.
Patrick Skinner, a former CIA case officer with extensive experience with Midle East extremist organisations, said some people claim allegiance to IS out of religious belief, but that most who join, including those from the West, are people 'reaching for a sense of belonging, a sense of notoriety, a sense of excitement.'
{But such speculation was no more likely than a Freudian ‘death wish’ hypothesis: that the poor youngsters – who doubtless shared the typical Arabian low IQ – were careless about their own lives, their Muslim polygamy-aspirant and dominating fathers having allowed them no sense of their being especially loved or important.}
IMMIGRANT VETTING PERFECTLY AMERICAN
Donald Trump’s modest plan to suspend visitations from Muslim countries (till a national understanding and plan was formulated) turned out to enjoy historical support.
Politico, 17 viii:
"....Since before the founding [of America] even, U.S. policies about whom the country chooses to welcome and reject have changed in response to changing conditions. As early as 1645, the Massachusetts Bay Colony prohibited the entry of poor or indigent persons. By the early 20th century, the country was filtering out people who had “undesirable” traits, such as epileptics, alcoholics and polygamists. Today, the naturalization oath demands that immigrants renounce allegiance to any foreign state. Even our Favorite Founding Father du jour, Alexander Hamilton (himself an immigrant), thought it was important to scrutinize whoever came to the United States. He wrote:
"To admit foreigners indiscriminately to the rights of citizens, the moment they put foot in our country . . . would be nothing less, than to admit the Grecian Horse into the Citadel of our Liberty and Sovereignty. . . . The United States have already felt the evils of incorporating a large number of foreigners into their national mass. . . . In times of great public danger there is always a numerous body of men, of whom there may be just grounds of distrust; the suspicion alone weakens the strength of the nation, but their force may be actually employed in assisting an invader.
In other words, immigration vetting is as American as apple pie.
NATIONALISM BOOSTED – BUT STILL SPURNED BY SOCIALISTS
Patriotic sentiment got an unexpected lift as lithe and likeable British gals lifted metal at the largely unwatched Olympic games in rape- and robbery-torn Rio. Matching the hysteria of the British press (and even of the usually sober if peecee Beeb), sports gurus in China, Australia, France and Germany whipped themselves into frothing rages at the Great-British breakthrough, floating accusations of legendary British perfidy – even though the spectacular British success had been largely due to ruthless elitism, concentrating available funds on high-performing young athletes in sports where more medals were available (cycling, gym, swimming, rowing) and giving them top British-developed technology and poached Oz coaches.
Amusingly, the national triumph (including Gold for tearful tennis champ and flag carrier, Anglo-Scot Andy Murray) made no mark on UK Labour leader ‘Jezza’ Corbyn, 69, who was revealed on TV to be hazy about the GB medals count, so preoccupied was he with his Trotskyite battle with social democrats and Blairites in his party (cf. the last great Labour rift of 1982 which equally excluded ‘Old Labour’ and resulted in Labour being out of power for fifteen years).
{The Labour Party had historically been an alliance in which intellectuals, pacifists, ‘antiracists’ and homophiliacs could win themselves votes by promising such practicalities as workers’ power, council houses, welfare and ‘ospitals. ‘Jezza’ had been passably well placed to continue the alliance since he himself was anti-EUSSR and thus attractive to the remaining White workers of Sunderland etc. But he decided to adopt the ‘reasonable’ position of metrosexuals on ‘Europe’ and to focus on fighting the cause of neo-Trot international socialism – now very much including hostility to Israel -- as against tired Blairites who had found no way of sorting out the murderous Solunnis and Shitites of the Middle East.
By declining to make Labour once more a ‘national welfare’ party, Corbyn thus ceded the field – leaving it to the ‘Conservatives’ whom leftists themselves had bullied into the new religion of PeeCee which so complemented greedy businessmen’s ‘globalizing’ ambitions.} In America, presidential contender Trump was happy to exude national welfarist spirit, promising jobs and jollies in pursuit of ‘making America great again.’

CIVILIZATION DEFENDED
Noting MSM’s tired habit of trying to rubbish ‘old White men’ and the fantastically prosperous, artistic, law-abiding and exploratory culture which they had created, Taki Magazine’s Jim Goad let fly (25 vii).
"The oniony-looking Rebecca Onion of Slate asserted that it made “no sense” to judge groups by their historical inventions, despite the fact that a given racial group’s level of technological innovation is tightly correlated with its relative success and prosperity. Writing for Salon, a certain Sarah Watts didn’t appear to be joking when she credited Africans for inventing “humanity.” (I suppose other inventions were hard to come by.) She also typed with a straight face that non-American and non-European “subgroups” like Asia, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East “are almost solely responsible for what we consider modern society.”
There are reams of evidence of technological innovations by the ancient Chinese, the ancient Indians, and the ancient Semites -- emphasis on the “ancient.”
For example, the Chinese invented gunpowder. But for some reason these perennial warriors and kung-fu fighters weren’t savvy enough to use their invention as a weapon of war.
The ancient Indians are widely credited with inventing the numerical system we currently use. But they certainly didn’t invent calculus like Newton and Leibniz did.
Most uncomfortable for egalitarians and their ilk is that there are vast landmasses -- sometimes entire continents -- where the indigenous inhabitants have invented virtually nothing. Sub-Saharan Africans are not known for contributing much to rocket science, and black Americans are so underrepresented as inventors that everyone has heard a gazillion times about the mulatto who improved blood-storage methods and George Washington Carver’s wondrous dalliances with the magical peanut.
The so-called “Native Americans” are credited with inventing the spinning top, which somehow proved incapable of defending them against the white man and his guns.
And Australia’s aborigines? Well, let’s not talk about them, because they’d be embarrassed. Peruvians can take pride in developing the art of potato cultivation. And I’ve already covered the Mexicans and their nachos.
EUROPE TO BE SAVED FROM ITSELF
Even as the multiculti-besotted, officially War-guilt-ridden dictatorial politicos of Europe counselled abject peecee submission to a fortnight of ‘mentally ill’ Muesli killings in France, Germany and Britain [where the 64-yr wife of a well-known Florida psychology professor was stabbed to death by a father-abandoned Black in central London’s leafy Russell Square] – supported by Rome’s socialist Il Papa and other ‘Christian’ freaks having no respect for freedom (even for the MSM-popular female freedom, i.e. pseudo-equality) – newspapers began to reveal extensive business contacts between America’s Trump and Russia’s Putin, giving hope that, as in WWII, the dafter ideas of mittel-Europa could be squashed – as they had been, largely, by Britain and allies since the Hundred Years War (with Parisian France).
PAEDOHYSTERIA POOH-POOHED
As the West’s latter-day religion of PeeCee daily reached new heights of condemning the slightest hints of racist, misogynist, homophobic, transphobic, fattist or other disablist realism, MSM’s originating campaign against paedophilia (which word MSM had learned to spell around 1995) had led to a 37-yr geography teacher in a north-London private school being hauled into court for unlikely crimes of ‘repeatedly and brutally raping’ a 14-yr pupil whom he had summoned into his multi-windowed classroom as she passed in her lunch breaks. (Acquitted in less than half an hour, the schoolmaster fell to his knees and wept as his ordeal by false accusation came to a close.) Columnist Rachel Johnson (sister of new Foreign Minister and Entertainer-in-Chief BoJo) managed to see the light (Daily Mail, 1 viii):
"[The prosecution of the teacher] was a waste of time, of money, and of a teacher’s precious reputation, and adds to a building sense that the huge surge in the reporting and processing of historic sexual abuse claims is turning into a bonanza, Klondike economy for lawyers and probably therapists, too."
{Well said, Rachel! By 2016, paedohysterical investigations, prosecutions and punishments were costing the UK £3M daily. Of course, PeeCee demanded the ruinous denunciations of computer-housed ‘abusive images’ and of ancient ‘inappropriate touching’ continue since they provided a cutting edge for the fatuous denunciations of ‘racist’ etc ‘remarks’ and sensible discrimination that were the real business of PeeCee’s moral crusade for cultural Marxism.}
{Paedohysterical excesses were also denounced in the Times by columnists Clare Foges and Melanie Phillips (2 viii) – denunciations from women that were vigorous and welcome, even if coming twenty years too late. High-level criticism of the tyrannical hysteria also seemed implicit in the successive resignation of three top female judges from vastly remunerated leadership of a planned government inquiry into forty years of alleged celebrity and establishment paedophilia: apparently the highly experienced judges saw no prospect of justice being possible in the overheated atmosphere which the UK’s feminoids and tabloids had created.
Columnist Charles Moore also provided a strong and detailed critique of what he had no doubt was a modern witch-hunt – complete with anonymity for accusers and acceptance of mere hearsay evidence (Telegraph, 6 viii). }
MULTICULTILLUSION
As Turkey’s Muesli dictator Erdogging moved swiftly to lock up or sack scores of thousands of his relatively liberal opponents in line with Arab traditions (supposedly in revenge for the opponents mounting a 12-hour ‘coup’ against him), it turned out that quaint Muesli ‘culture’ persisted in Berlin even after 50 years of Germany welcoming and hoping to integrate its age-old hoped-for allies (Times, 2 viii).
Germany is home to about three million people of Turkish descent, the largest such population outside Turkey. They began arriving in the 1960s as guest workers invited to offset a shortage of manpower. Despite this long history, the overwhelming majority of Turks do not feel any German identity. Only about 15 per cent feel that Germany is more their home than Turkey, according to Info GmbH, a Berlin research firm. The figure was six points higher in 2009.
There was a telling moment at Sunday’s rally in Cologne when a speaker called on the crowd to chant “We are Germany”. They answered with calls of Allahu akbar!
Researchers say that young Turks are becoming more religious in order to establish an identity they feel deprived of in Germany.
Three quarters of German Turks are Turkish citizens, even though nearly half have lived there for more than 20 years. German law bans dual citizenship for those aged over 18, which critics say deters integration. Parallel societies have grown in the big cities, where entire districts have Turkish pharmacies, doctors, supermarkets, restaurants and pubs. Many Turks spend their lives in a bubble, watching Turkish television, listening to Turkish radio and reading Turkish newspapers.
LONDON SCHOOL SCORES
Britain’s intelligence guru, Sir Francis Galton, was listed among the top 30 geniuses of relatively modern times in a new list drawn up by Chicago-based electrochemical engineer Libb Thims (Daily Mail, 3 viii). Altogether, seven Brits got into the top 30, in order of estimated IQ (using developmental criteria): Isaac Newton, James Clerk Maxwell, Thomas Young [deciphered the Rosetta Stone], William Shakespeare, John Stuart Mill, Thomas Wolsey and Francis Galton. People of German origin did best, with Goethe, Einstein, Leibniz and Gauss appearing in the top 12. Famed for his work on meteorology, fingerprinting, prayer and female beauty as well as heredity, Galton was the most popular British intellectual of his day and managed to get his ‘heretical’ cousin Charles Darwin buried in Westminster Abbey.
LACHRYMOSE LEFT-LIBS ULULATE
Dismay among the West’s peecee establishment was unconfined as lower-class Whites rejected the contract which metropolitan pseudo-Marxist slavers and repeatedly bankrupt bankers had arranged (e.g. Taki’s Magazine, 2 viii). The idea had been that low-life Whites would accept hotel prisons, open-plan classrooms, non-existent policing [except of octogenarian and dead paedophiles], the abolition of the Royal Navy [except for its endless admirals] and subordination to the EUSSR [i.e. France] so long as they got jobs, council houses, pensions and national health care.
But the arrival of a million hardworking Poles, plus a sprinkling of gypsies, proved to be the straw that broke the camel’s back after years of tolerance of Blacks and Paks: so, at the UK referendum, 70% of Labour-held constituencies had voted to LEAVE the carefully crafted Blairite world and to show Enoch had been right (or, indeed, left – as he had sensationally announced after his fellow-Conservatives abandoned him).
In America, too, the peecee establishment – whether Democrat or Republican – was shocked, shocked by the blunt-speaking / dog-whistling national welfarist Donald Trump who – in a world of self-righteous slavers, tyrants, honour killers and rapist beheaders – proposed a return to the values of freedom, democracy, neighbourliness and good humour which lib-leftist traitors had abandoned.
PEECEE POOH-POOHED
Hollywood tough guy Clint Eastwood emptied both barrels in an interview with Esquire magazine, aiming squarely at those who had taken presidential candidate Donald Trump to task for racism and other, well, rough edges (Guardian, 5 viii). “He’s said a lot of dumb things,” the 82-yr actor and director said of the man who had pilloried Mexicans, Muslims, immigrants and women. “So have all of them. Both sides. But everybody -- the press and everybody -- is going, ‘Oh, well, that’s racist’, and they’re making a big hoodoo out of it.”
This country, he said, is plagued by what he derided as “a pussy generation”, and he wasn’t talking about all those cute videos moms post on Facebook. Trump, the actor fumed, is “on to something, because secretly everybody’s getting tired of political correctness, kissing up. That’s the kiss-ass generation we’re in right now. We’re really in a pussy generation. Everybody’s walking on eggshells. We see people accusing people of being racist and all kinds of stuff,” Eastwood continued. “When I grew up, those things weren’t called racist.”
‘APARTHEID’ PARTY ZOOMS IN SOUTH AFRICA
After 22 years of being run by the communistic and anti-White African National Congress, South Africa’s voters moved sharply towards the main opposition party, the Democratic Alliance (Observer, 7 viii). In nationwide local elections, the ANC lost its usual majority in most urban areas – home to the “clever Blacks” disliked by the ANC for their middle-class ways and capitalist sympathies.
To mask economic failings, the ruling ANC had run a negative and crudely racist campaign that aimed to paint the opposition DA as the party of apartheid. Campaigning in Nelson Mandela Bay, SA’s President and kleptocrat Zuma called the DA “snakes, the children of the National party” and repeatedly referred to its young Black leader as a puppet of Whites.
{It was not uncommon for aspiring Blacks to welcome White presence and influence in their areas, for this helped supply a handy proportion of competent doctors and honest police.}

PIOUS PEECEE HOPES DASHED
Twice, in 2008 and 2012, Americans had voted in half-Black Chicago agitator Barry Hussein Obarmy to solve their racial problems; but an ABC News poll found (17 vii) that almost two-thirds of those surveyed said race relations were now generally bad – a total reversal of the sentiment detected in the first weeks of Obama’s presidency. A majority said the problem was only getting worse.
Speaking in Dallas as Blacks killed cops on a daily basis – risking a police strike if not a civil war -- Obama candidly acknowledged the scale of the fears facing the US. “I’ve seen how inadequate words can be in bringing about lasting change,” Obama said, adjusting his grip on his lectern as he faltered slightly. “I’ve seen how inadequate my own words have been.”
BLACKS GET BENEFIT OF DOUBT
Stereotypes of White US cops being trigger-happy with Blacks were confounded by new research (Washington Post, 19 vii):
The most sophisticated lab study of police shoot/don’t-shoot decisions to date, published this year in Criminology and Public Policy, undercuts the Black Lives Matter narrative about trigger-happy, racist cops. Washington State University researcher Lois James put 80 officers from the Spokane, Wash., police department in highly realistic video simulators of street scenarios.
Officers were confronted with potentially armed suspects identical in all aspects, including body language and weapon, except for their race. The test subjects were not told the purpose of the research, which was conducted between August 2012 and November 2013, before the issue of race in policing reached the fever pitch of prominence that it possesses today.
The officers were three times less likely to shoot unarmed black suspects than unarmed white suspects and took significantly longer to decide to shoot armed black suspects than armed white suspects. James hypothesized that officers were second-guessing themselves when confronting black suspects, due to their awareness of the potential negative repercussions of shooting a black suspect.
James’s finding that participants, in her words, “displayed significant bias favoring Black suspects” in their shooting decisions replicated the results of two previous studies she has run on shoot/don’t-shoot decisions.
James’s work anticipated a much-discussed working paper by Harvard economist Roland Fryer. Fryer found that police officers in Houston were nearly 24 percent less likely to shoot blacks than whites (p. 50); he concluded that there was no evidence of racial discrimination in shootings there. In a data set comprising officer shootings from Dallas, Austin, Houston, Los Angeles and six Florida counties, he found that officers were 47 percent less likely to discharge their weapon without first being attacked if the suspect was black than if the suspect was white (p. 25), and that black and white victims of police shootings were equally likely to have been armed.
PEECEE POLITICOS SPURNED
France’s empty verbalizers, socialists Pres.Hollande and PM Valls, found themselves booed by crowds at memorials for the 84 mown down in Nice by a pathetic macho-aspirant bisexual Muesli whose much-beaten wife had left him and whose employer had sacked him after he fell asleep at the wheel of his lorry – so he welcomed ISICK funding for his drug habits and for his transmission of impressive sums to his divorced parents in Tunisia.
One policeman – from a wheelchair – refused to shake his President’s hand. For, indeed, France’s politicians had done nothing to prevent the Muesli invasion. Marine Le Pen, the leader of the far-right Front National who polls forecast would reach the second round of next year’s election, said: “Nothing that we have proposed has been put in place. Considering the new nature of terrorism which is now a terrorism of opportunity ... the urgency is to attack the ideology on which this terrorism is based. And in this space, nothing has been done, absolutely nothing – no reintroduction of double punishment, nor depriving people of nationality, nor the closure of salafist mosques ... nor the banning of certain organisations. In truth, we are not at war. For the moment, we are in a war of words.”
‘PATRIOTIC SPRING’ BECKONS....
Moved by the efforts of The Donald and his delightful retinue to maintain three days of ‘Trump’-chanting razmataz at the US Republican Congress in Cleveland, Ohio (‘Lock Her Up!’ was a popular chant whenever the name of ‘Crooked Hillary’ was mentioned), Holland’s anti-Islamofascist leader Geert Wilders understandably pointed to the 2016 year of success for Western nationalist movements as suggestive of what he called a ‘Patriotic Spring’ (Wall Street Journal, 21 vii).
Happily, the Trumpers issued – to applause -- several express blasts against ‘political correctness’ even though they remained politely obedient to peecee restrictions on the actual use of terms like ‘race,’ ‘Black,’ ‘White,’ ‘Asian,’ ‘IQ,’ ‘psychoticism,’ ‘criminality’ and ‘hyperbreeding.’
In this they were in turn a little braver than Britain’s new officially LEAVE government which, within days of taking office, abandoned all ‘targets’ for reducing mass immigration and settled for patriotic expression in sending skinamalinks PM Mendacious May for dinners in Berlin and Paris to build her up and to discuss whether BREXIT was BREXIT—a question to which eurocrat French President Hollande had a quick philosophical answer though Empress Merkel was more polite....
DEMAKRAZIC DISASTER GIVES HOPE OF REALISM
After decades of bullying once secular-controlled Turkey towards Western ethnicity-scorning democracy, the West found itself lumbered in Tukey with the ever-more-irate and unpredictable elected dictator Receipt-cheat Erdogging who had managed – with only 250 deaths -- to lock up 60K of his ‘putsch’ opponents in a single day, demanded extradition of an 80-yr-old ‘putsch’ leader from his retirement home in Pennsylvania, aimed to reintroduce the death penalty (feared by Western peecee politicos, who were mainly race traitors), threatened to tear up his deal with Empress Merkel to halt Syrian migrant flow, and made up with the Ruskies and Basher Assad.
In the circumstances, extending Russian control of the murderous Muesli Middle East – its problems exacerbated by Western ignoracist refusal to admit or adapt realistically to the eternal civil war between Solunnis and Shitites – looked just about hopeful. Why, in return for a sliver of caliphate linking them to mediaeval Sunni Saudi, the Turks might even be persuaded to be reasonable about the national ambitions of the Kurds! And Kenyan Obarmy’s lack of grip on world problems could hardly have been better illustrated.

OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS
Whether UK politicians could get round the ‘xenophobic’ LEAVE referendum demand of voters was answered as Andrea Leadsom (q.v.) gave up her ambition to lead the ‘Conservative’ party. Her offence had been to allude to her mother-of-three status as being a helpful qualification in one seeking to run the country – and to fail to mention the compensating advantages of childlessness which had made Queen Elizabeth I, Benjamin Disraeli and Ted Heath such effective leaders in their day.
At a stroke, her withdrawal over a little realism, spared cuckservatives the image of ‘the nasty party’ which the Camoronian Theresa May had led them to fear; and restored them in a flash to being ‘the dreary party’ – an image with which the dolts were happier (preferring a ‘safety first’ subscription to PeeCee – as many a mother-of-three might....).
Fortunately, Leadsom’s retreat – reaffirming her party as one of polite peecee globalisers who would do anything for a quiet profit-making life – meant that the hopeless factions of the British ‘left’ had the opportunity to speak truth to power about the realities of biological human differences in race, sex, age, polygamy, criminality, stupidity and sexual orientation and to demand not fine peecee sentiments but tangible improvements.
At least one of Labour’s warring ‘progressives’ would surely seize the chance of adding separatism to its socialism and thus offering – as was happening all over Europe and America – a national welfarism that would would ensure the targeting of state largesse towards those who mde serious contributions to national objectives (not least by paying substantial sums in taxation).
BLACKS SEEK US CIVIL WAR
After decades of being over-represented among shooters of White cops, Black cops, Whites in general and each other, US Blacks decided to be largely reasonable about a Black who had been radicalized following dishonourable army discharge for sexual molestation, so, after the Dallas horror, protests, riots and looting of White shops was sporadic and accompanied by only a few killings of Whites. But verbal bellicosity was deemed necessary to distract attention from the Black slayer of six who had himself planned to become a cop until his racism (ooops, anti-racism) took over – as star Jewish columnist Melanie Phillips recorded (Times, 12 vii):
"....Last week the African American Defense League posted a message encouraging violence against police. Marchers in New York city chanted “What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!” Last August, Texas ‘Black Lives Matter’ protesters called for the “lynching” and “killing” of white people and white police officers. Until now, ‘Black Lives Matter’ has been treated with respect and hailed as a nascent civil rights movement.
In fact, it suppresses rights and it is certainly anything but civil. On campus it silences free speech through pathologically sensitive “trigger alerts” that shut down debate and intimidate anyone deemed to be racially offensive.
White liberals, who either agree that white society is profoundly racist or are terrified that they might be labelled racist if they object to this calumny, have never called out black power extremists for promoting prejudice. They call it instead anti-racism."
TRUMP ZOOMS TO SCORE
While the peoples of the UK found their EUSSR-rejecting (and thus nationalism-accepting) referendum result swiftly stolen from them by their ruling ‘Conservatives’ wangling one Moronic* (Theresa) May into the premiership so she could continue the peecee globalism that had suited PMs Blair, Brown and Cameron and all employers of slave labour, the USA was proving it was made of sterner stuff.
The flamboyant realist Donald Trump (q.v.) overtook ‘Crooked’ Hillary Clinton in the critical election battlegrounds of Florida and Pennsylvania after the former secretary of state came under withering criticism from the FBI (Times, 14 vii). In Florida, where the 2000 election was decided, in June Mrs Clinton had led her Republican rival for the White House by eight points; but by July she trailed him by 42 per cent to 39 per cent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll.
‘The Donald’ also led by 43 per cent to 41 per cent in Pennsylvania, where the Democratic nominee had won every election since 1988. The two candidates were tied in Ohio, another crucial swing state. (Since 1960 no presidential candidate had won the White House without winning at least two of Pennsylvania, Florida and Ohio.)
French people, too, were reported as becoming enraged by Muesli atrocities, failure to integrate, continued invasion and tireless overbreeding at public expense. They rated their socialist President Hollande as the worst leader in the entire history of the Fifth Republic.
*And most likely Mendacious. A day after appointing her anti-Brexit Cabinet, MM flew to Edinburgh to assure First Clottish Minister Codface that MM would not ask Brussels for UK freedom until Scotland agreed – i.e. never, La Sturgeon could say.
The meeting of the two largely socialist wymmin went well, since Codface was relieved to gather she could avoid another referendum on Scottish independence which the SNP would have once more lost (thanks to ‘Scotland’s oil’ having become near-worthless and thus unable to make up for the London largesse which Scotland had enjoyed for a century).
TOP POLE POLITICIAN BLASTS PEECEE
In a world first, Poland’s Interior Minister [cf. Home Secretary] became the first elected Western leader to condemn Multiculti-PeeCee publicly (Daily Mail, 16 vii). Commenting on the carnage in Nice, where a Muesli petty criminal of Tunisian origin had hired a lorry to mow down Frenchies (the immediate death toll was 84) celebrating the storming of the Bastille which had led on the murderous ending of France’s monarchy, aristocrats, bishops and millions of devout priests and peasants but also to the ‘glorious’ Napoleonic France of survivors’ and descendants’ fond imaginations, Minister Mariusz Blaszczak blamed France and Brussels for “decades of multiculturalism and political correctness” and called for tough action on jihad – especially singling out France’s tolerance of no-go areas for police in the country’s many human dustbins ooops ghettoes.
{Actually, ghettoes had worked passably well in Britain, touch wood. Pakis are left to fuel the drug needs of UK weenies in return for sexual favours – though not perhaps to murder them. But Britain’s Mueslis were Oriental and recalled Britain saving them from Hindus, whereas those in France were Black and recalled France’s endless, brutal and thankless war to retain control of North Africa.}

INTEGRATION DEMANDED
In the latest move to deny citizenship to those who balk at Swiss culture, authorities rejected the naturalization application of two Muslim girls who refused to take school swimming lessons because boys were present (USA Today, 28 vi).
The girls, ages 12 and 14, who live in the northern city of Basel, had applied for Swiss citizenship several months ago, but their request was denied, Swiss media reported. The case showed how those who don’t follow Swiss rules and customs won’t become citizens, even if they have lived in the country for a long time, are fluent in one of the national languages – German, French or Italian – and are gainfully employed.
Germany showed every sign of following suit, with well-advanced plans for obliging benefit claimants to pass a test of everyday fluency in German; and immigrants were told they must stay at government-agreed addresses for their first three years – so as to hinder formation of ghettoes.
ETHNIC SEPARATION WORKS
As Glasgow-Oxford-Harvard historian Niall Ferguson continued with his support for UK’s REMAIN and related great-and-good causes of indiscriminate multiculti race-mixing (Sunday Times, 3 vii), he drew a critical reply from correspondent William Clark:
"The ironic comment at the end of your book "War of the World" was that peace in Europe was achieved through the ethnic cleansing during the War of the World, and then remarked how immigration in recent years effectively saw the immigration of culturally different peoples by their millions. The implication is that war becomes more likely once again.
As an immigrant, I did not agree with the focus on the immigration issues by the LEAVE campaign but it is a relative issue. I ask all immigrants I meet what they like about Britain, given it cannot be the food or our weather. The answer is that it is a nice country. Even young people from France, Italy and Germany say they like the sense of freedom here. At what point, under pre-Brexit arrangements, does everyone say: Enough! We could, just, fit the entire population of the world on this Island, but I think most people would say: Too many! What about the entire population of the European Union. After all, they do not have Habeas Corpus. What about 200 million residents here? One hundred million? So it is a relative issue but an entirely valid one, and the concerns of the public have been largely ignored by the intellectuals who supposedly speak for us. There are many areas of the country where the people feel there are already too many immigrants. Such people voted as is their right"
Clark was surely right: mass ethnic separations that made for peace after 1945 included the expulsion of Germans from Eastern Europe by the Red Army, Japanese withdrawal from China, the separation of Muslim Pakistan from mainly-Hindu India, the creation of a homeland in Israel where Jews could take refuge and the partition of Cyprus between Greek and Turkish communities; by contrast, the continued mixing of religions in Northern Ireland, Burma, Iraq, and India itself were ongoing disasters – as were the overoptimistic fantasies of Black-White co-operation in America and South Africa. Only the firmest dictatorial rule enabled communities who hated each other to live together – as in Madman Insane’s Iraq and Basher Assad’s Syria – though less pronounced conflicts could be handled by firm religion or ideology as under Catholicism in South Ameria and under communism in Russia, Yugoslavia and China.
LEAD, SHINING LIGHT....
Amidst the encircling gloom at the Grauniad about the massive display in England of affection for the Queen on her 90th birthday, about English rugby victory in Australia, about the ‘liberal’-left failing to command votes whether wearing Liberal or Labour hats, and about the £10M taxpayers’ gift to ignoramic Iraq gurubureaucrat and multicultidupe Chilcot leaving Rev Blair a free man to enjoy his multi-million-pound diplomatic spoils, the intellectually and actually bankrupt newspaper let its star ‘maverick’ columnist deliver a little better cheer (7 vii, Simon Jenkins):
"Brexit is starting to deliver. British politics was constipated and has now overdosed on laxative. It is experiencing a great evacuation. It has got rid of a prime minister and is about to get rid of a leader of the opposition. It will soon be rid of a chancellor of the exchequer and a lord chancellor. It is also rid of two, if not four, Tory heirs apparent. Across the spectrum the left is on the brink of upheaval and perhaps historic realignment, if only the Liberal Democrats have the guts to engineer it. The Greens and Ukip have both lost their leaders. An entire political class is on the way out. As Oscar Wilde said of the death of Little Nell, it would take a heart of stone not to laugh"
Yes, despite the West’s globalizing capitalists and slave traders having embraced PeeCee and censorship to help their cause, the people of Scotland and non-metropolitan England had shown it was nationalists and kindred LEAVErs who had the votes –to the horror of chatterati.
More seriously, the Guardian also let Welsh Labour MP and Privy Councillor Ann Clwyd remind anti-war hysterics of what Madman Insane’s Iraq had been like until the US and UK mounted their second improving military intervention:
"I first became aware of human rights atrocities in Iraq in the 70s, before I became a politician. I met Iraqi students in Cardiff, some of whom had been imprisoned in Basra, and what they told me was so terrible I could hardly believe them. I came to learn, however, that it was only the tip of the iceberg.
In 1991 I stood up in parliament and described what I had seen on the mountains of Iran and Iraq, when the Kurds fled from Saddam’s helicopter gunships. The scenes were appalling and typical of the attacks made by the Iraqi regime on Iraqis.
Saddam killed hundreds of thousands of his own people. He was “the biggest weapon of mass destruction”, an Iraqi man once told me. “Why did it take so long for him to be removed?”
Many Kurds were killed during the genocidal Anfal campaign, including as a result of the barbarous use of chemical weapons in Halabja. I met a number of the horribly burnt victims in a London hospital afterwards. Many, many others were killed brutally in cold blood in a maze of prisons and torture chambers all over the country. Repression, abuse, ethnic cleansing and extrajudicial killings continued right up to 2003.
Saddam was without doubt a serious threat to domestic, regional and global stability. I had hoped the international community could remove or neutralise him without war. But sanctions, international indictments, UN security council resolutions: all had been tried; all had failed"
BLACKS TO GET JEWISH HELP TO BLOCK BORDER
Israel announced it would help Kenya to build a 440-mile wall along its border with Somalia as part of a range of sweeteners from Binyamin Netanyahu to win African support against mad Mueslis at the United Nations. Kenya hoped that the wall, which drew comparisons with the controversial West Bank “separation barrier”, would stem the flow of terrorists from Somalia after attacks including the 2013 Westgate shopping centre siege in Nairobi in which at least 67 people died. The centre and some of its restaurants were Israeli-owned.
{No criticism of this Trumpian ‘xenophobic’ scheme was expected from the peecee goons of the West since it was wanted by Blacks.}
‘GUTTER PRESS’ SUPPORT FOR REMAIN
As Eurofanatics tried to recover from their defeat at the hands of the British electorate – suddenly revealed at the ballot box as being opposed to low-IQ-immigration after years of PeeCee in which such views were deemed unworthy of expression – the vengeful Times struck an especially low note by asking three-sprogged LEAVE candidate for the ‘Conservative’ leadership Andrea Leadsom what she thought of becoming a top political “mum.”
Obligingly, Andrea replied that motherhood might possibly give a candidate a certain edge over a childless rival {like Theresa May – and found herself promptly dumped on by the Times and the BBC. Of course, LEAVEr Leadsom had in no way complained of the ‘edge’ – in time and money -- that might accrue to childfree achievers such as:
Louisa May Alcott, Author of Little Women
Jane Austen, Author of Sense and Sensibility
Francis Bacon, Politician, Philosopher, Scientist
Tallulah Bankhead, Actress
Samuel Beckett, Author, Playwright, Poet
Ludwig Van Beethoven, Composer
William Blake, Artist, Poet
James Buchanan, 15th U.S. President

George Clooney, Actor, Star of ‘Ocean's Eleven’
Etc. – see http://nkohk.forumotion.net/t16-the-long-list-of-childfree-and-childless-in-history
allowing them to think, read, write and entertain in career-advancing ways. No wonder AL was outraged at her treatment by what she called the centre-left “gutter press.”

RACE REALISM RE-ASSERTED
The case for acknowledging race differences – rather than denying them as simplistic, slight or arbitrary – was neatly summarized by three academics (led by Bo Winegard from Florida State University – home to the leading race realist, the late Glayde Whitney) in Quillette, 23 vi.
Authors’ Conclusion:
Most people believe that there are human races. They believe this not because they have a sophisticated understanding of genetic variation or human evolution, but because they see and categorize perspicuous phenotypic (and possibly behavioral) differences. Although many intellectuals have contended that these differences are largely superficial and distort underlying genetic realities, most research suggests that there are meaningful genetic differences among racial groups and that these differences are largely consistent with common racial classifications. Race is as real and useful as other constructs in the social sciences such as neuroticism, self-esteem, and intelligence. Therefore, with appropriate care and caution, scientists can and should study racial variation. This argument may appear alarming to people concerned about racial justice. But it doesn’t need to be. Tolerance and cosmopolitanism don’t require the leveling of diversity; they require the celebration of it. Race exists, but racism does not have to.
To which a correspondent usefully added:
A nice demolishing of the "race is a social construct" idea, but the notion that "racism" is abhorrent is a bit problematic. What is typically condemned these days as racism, is merely the preference by Whites (only) for their own race. This preference is entirely natural and no one bats an eyelash if other races loudly announce this preference for those closest to themselves. Racism doesn't necessarily mean that one is a supremacist.
JAP GOVT SURVEILLANCE OF MUESLIS LEGALIZED
Independent, 29 vi:
Japan’s Supreme Court has upheld the government’s blanket surveillance of the country’s Muslim community. The court struck down the second appeal by Japanese Muslim plaintiffs against what they perceive as an unconstitutional invasion of their privacy and freedom of religion.
A 2010 leak of 114 police files revealed nationwide surveillance of Japanese Muslims. The files revealed that Muslim places of worship, halal restaurants and Islam-related organisations across the capital, Tokyo, were being monitored.
To which an American correspondent added:
"A group of 17 Japanese Muslims, mostly from Middle Eastern and North African countries, decided to sue the Japanese government for infringing on their constitutional rights."
Here they go again with the notion that any random person can become a national of any country merely by living there. Not one Japanese citizen would consider an immigrant from the Middle East or North Africa a "Japanese Muslim."
Good for the Japanese government for looking out for its own people! Putting the West to shame again! If you want to make yourself extra Red-Pilled, travel from JFK to Tokyo Narita and back. In Narita airport there are no bums lying around, no unhelpful foreign security personnel (all native Japanese guys in uniforms with white gloves), and the bathrooms and other facilities are spotless.
Go back to JFK and it looks like it hasn't been serviced since 1970. There are derelict buildings outside of the main terminals and you might encounter a bum here and there. While at JFK, I asked a question of a black security guard, but he could not understand me as he was from somewhere in Africa!
AUSTRIA TO GIVE NATIONALISTS ANOTHER SHOT AT PRESIDENCY
BBC, 1 vii:
Austria’s highest court has annulled the result of the presidential election narrowly lost by the candidate of the far-right Freedom Party. The party had challenged the result, saying that postal votes had been illegally and improperly handled.
The Freedom Party candidate, Norbert Hofer, lost the election to the former leader of the Greens, Alexander Van der Bellen, by just 30,863 votes or less than one percentage point. The election will now be re-run.
Announcing the decision, Gerhard Holzinger, head of the Constitutional Court, said: “The challenge brought by Freedom Party leader Heinz-Christian Strache against the 22 May election . . . has been upheld.”
He added: “The decision I am announcing today has no winner and no loser, it has only one aim: to strengthen trust in the rule of law and democracy.”
Mr Hofer said on Friday he was pleased that the court had taken “a difficult decision”, adding: “I have great trust in the rule of law.”
Mr Van der Bellen said he was “very confident” he would emerge the winner. “Austria needs to be well represented in Europe and the world. If we can do it once, we can do it again,” he told reporters....
{The new election would be held in the autumn.}
PEECEE ESTABLISHMENT FALTERS
In a week of upheaval in Britain’s strange political system, the constitutional novelty of a referendum on ‘Europe’ (which had astonished pundits and pollsters by demanding LEAVE) saw the end of PM Daft Dave who had embraced mass immigration of illiterate Pakistanis, Somalians A/As and gypsies. True, it also ended the careers of the Tories’ top two intellectuals, blond ‘BoJo’ and bespectacled ‘Govey’, LEAVErs whose in-fighting left the party and PM-ship within the grasp of the Camoronian cleavage-flasher Nanny May; but LEAVErs Jacob Rees-Mogg (Eton and Trinity [Oxford]) and well-preserved mother-of-three bankerette Andrea Leadsom (U.Warwick) still had a chance, and nationalists were encouraged by several EUSSR member countries beginning to demand their own LEAVE referenda.
Amidst all the sudden British confusion (including Labour MPs voting 172-40 against their own REMAINER-feigning leader), dignities were preserved as France and the UK delivered a fine and moving commemoration of the 1M+ killed by their previous politicians in the 1916 Battle of the Somme – a co-operative exercise at the grand Thiepval Memorial made easier by France, too, wanting Yukay to leave Germany’s Fourth Reich as soon as possible (so as to resume its favoured Napoleonic posture, funded by German lolly).
{That the UK’s ‘Brexit’ LEAVE vote reflected, as much as it spearheaded wider European disaffection with the EUSSR “pseudo-state” and its failure to defend European culture (especially against mass immigration) was excellently articulated in a ten-minute radio talk by political philosopher John Gray (a Thatcher and Nato loyalist, author of False Dawn: The Delusions of Global Capitalism (1998 / 2009), lead book reviewer for New Statesman) (BBC R4, 3 vii, 08:50, ‘A Point of View’).
Like this blog, and probably like America’s Donald Trump, the fast-moving Gray now thought the traditional left-right contrast to lack much relevance to 21st-century issues, which would pit something like ‘national welfarism’ against ‘multicultural globalism’ -- cowardly ‘conservatives’ being doomed to defend the peecee infant which lib-leftists had foisted upon them while nationalists took over the serious business of competition.}

HOW CUCKSERVATISM WORKS
As the shooting of Labour MP Holy Jo Crawford by a loony loner and the subsequent instant orchestration of mass Westminster mourning took what little wind there had been out of LEAVE’s faintly nationalistic sails, polite conservatives, afraid of being called extremists, could not bring themselves to remark the humanitarian cause that had not figured on Jo’s agenda.
Occidental Observer, 18 vi:
"Jo Cox wanted to make the world a better place and it was a cause for which she was willing to travel halfway across the globe. Whether consoling rape victims in Darfur or bombed out villagers in Afghanistan, it seemed the jet-setting international aid worker was rarely far from the action.
Lately it had been the struggle of Syrian war refugees to get to the West that touched her heart, and their plight was a subject she returned to again and again after becoming a Member of Parliament. It seemed there was no victims anywhere she could not empathise with.
Except, perhaps, with one striking omission.
And that would be the White child rape victims of Muslim grooming gangs in her own back yard. For her West Yorkshire constituency is near the epicentre of the Muslim child rape epidemic that has been sweeping the Labour heartlands of northern England, largely ignored or covered up by social services workers, police and politicians.
For it is a striking omission that of all the subjects she enjoyed sounding off on, this world-famous crisis affecting the poorest Whites on her doorstep was not one of them. One cannot help wonder if this shrewd silence was connected to the fact that her lavishly paid MP’s job in her constituency of Batley and Spen largely depended on the support of the local Muslim community.
Co-incidentally, just as Jo Cox was shot and stabbed to death outside her constituency office in Birstall last Thursday, sentencing was about to take place at Leeds Crown Court after a long trial involving a horrific case of Muslim child exploitation.
The court heard that in Halifax, eleven miles from Cox’s constituency, a vulnerable underage girl had been left to fend for herself at the age of 13 after her mother died. This child ended up being preyed on by 100 Muslim males who plied her with alcohol and drugs. The girl — nominally in council care — was then passed from house to house and from town to town as far away as Manchester and London.
The girl described being filmed by Muslims on a mobile phone while being orally raped. She contracted an STD. Some of the rapists were identified from CCTV which had been seized from the hotels she could remember, while others were caught because of DNA from stains on her clothing. The police said afterwords that the girl, one of two victims, had shown “immense courage and bravery in reporting these matters to the police and providing evidence.”
At the Leeds trial, only fifteen of the men were convicted. Originally over a hundred were arrested and doubtless dozens of culprits walked free. It was a lurid and horrific story but such hearings are so common these days, they have become wearily familiar.
Nevertheless you would think this would be a issue that would enrage a feminist-minded, morally crusading MP. But no, instead of fighting to defend the White girl victims of Muslim rape gangs, female Labour MPs have preferred to defend the Muslim community and deflect any criticism"
Or, like Jo Cox, they have chosen to ignore it completely. In her maiden speech, Jo Cox said that her community had been “deeply enhanced by immigration” but presumably child rape was not what she had in mind
Indeed, the good-networking MP could have been called Bomber Cox for her keen determination to bomb Basher Assad and his Alawites and Shitites so as to bring about an all-Solunni Syria which could form a massive caliphate with Turkey, al-Qaeda ISICK and Saudi. {Mercifully, Parliament had turned the option down.}
NO EXCUSES
As Yukay voters, divided 50/50 between globalizers and nationalists,* faced years of uncertainty as to whether and on what terms they would get an ultra-messy divorce from Brussels, they could not complain of not having been shown the problem of scarcely controlled 3rd-world invasion they confronted: on the very eve of the ‘Brexit?’ referendum, 400 pumigrants in the shanties of Calais demonstrated their skills of brick-tossing, fence-scaling and lorry-commandeering as they headed for the utopia of London (lately equipped with a Muesli ‘Palestinian’-backing mayor, SadFreakHeCan, to greet them) (Sun, 22 vi).
Traffic at the busy port was stopped for hours, enabling hundreds of cars to be damaged. Fortunately for the illiterate A/A illegals, Britain’s great-and-good virtue-signallers thought they would be getting more Indian takeaways and Polish plumbers; and low-paid Brits on zero-hours contracts minded their cannabis lofts and pit bull terriers in far-away shitholes well north of Watford where Pakistani paedophiles provided care for teenagerettes that peecee-scared social workers and police could not manage. So Pax PeeCee would continue in Yukay – at least till central Europe’s civil war about mindless immigration got into full swing.
*This distinction – arguably the new faultline of modern politics – was articulated (22 vi) in the Times by Daniel Finkelstein (who, in the British context, called it one between REMAINians and LEAVEians, under either of which mass immigration would be doomed to continue). {How Labourites would yowl!}
DING, DONG DAFT DAVE IS DEAD!
Just how out of touch could politicians be? A memorably resounding answer of ‘Plenty!’ was provided at the end of Yukay’s lacklustre ‘Brexit?’ referendum where, just before the opening salvo of Sunderland’s pro-LEAVE 62% was declared on telly, even UKIP’s Mr Garage declared his cause lost , along with most pollsters; and leading LEAVErs cancelled a London celebration party for LEAVE which they had organized.
In fact, however, the non-metropolitan heartlands of England and Wales voted nationalist/LEAVE and Scotland voted nationalist/REMAIN, causing PM Daft Dave and half Labour’s Shadow Cabinet to resign and three million shocked young Twitterers to seek a new referendum.
Amid the wonders and turmoil, no possible leader could be detected by chatterati who would implement LEAVERs wishes – especially on low-IQ immigration which had evidently begun to make an unwelcome mark outside London. The problem was that, after a decade of demonizing Nigel Farage, there was no easy way of electing him into Parliament and into the elite of the new ‘national welfare’ party that Britain needed.
Britain’s referendum decision to quit Germany’s EUSSR was a seismic moment for Europe because it pointed to the inescapable reality that a new national politics – whose angry force was for too long simply denied by the technocrats and governing classes – really was Trumping* Brussels’ supranational ambitions.
To most LEAVE voters, “ever closer union” might as well be a little-known Luther Vandross track. The animating, motivating, galvanising factor in the LEAVE vote was cutting immigration. “We want our country back” was shorthand for “We want our borders, schools, hospitals, police and houses back.” The people have spoken, and they wanted major cuts to immigration.
Whoever emerged to lead the Conservative Party next had to concede this – but there was a growing sense that senior LEAVErs didn’t yet recognise the extent of their promises. In a post-referendum statement, Boris Johnson mentioned immigration only once, expressing a desire to “take the wind out of the sails of ... those who would play politics on immigration”.
Perhaps he was in denial about the fact that it was the un-peecee politics of immigration that had delivered LEAVE’s victory and – if the betting odds were right – his likely entrance to Downing Street. Certainly, expecting the many globalizers in modern Conservative ranks to back nationalism was a tall order.
The task of breaking peecee multiculturalism would more naturally fall to parachutist Labour MP Major Dan Jarvis MBE (graduate of Aberystwyth University and King’s College London) who could be expected to get on with Powellite commodity trader Nigel Farage MEP whose UKIP had repeatedly shown it spoke for the national-welfarist concerns of many traditional Labour voters.
*On a flying visit to Scotland to open his refurbished Ayrshire golf course, The Donald hailed the LEAVE result as “fantastic.”

GENES PREDICT SUCCESS
Re-invention of the wheel continued by university staff needing a grant – with predictable though otherwise perfectly satisfactory results. See below:
Association for Psychological Science, June 6, 2016:
Psychological characteristics link genes with upward social mobility, according to data collected from almost 1000 individuals over four decades. The data suggest that various psychological factors play a role in linking a person’s genetic profile and several important life outcomes, including professional achievement, financial security, geographic mobility, and upward social mobility.
The study, led by psychological scientist Daniel W. Belsky of Duke University School of Medicine, builds on previous research indicating a genetic continuum that predicts individuals’ educational achievement. In the earlier study, the Social Science Genetic Association Consortium examined millions of genetic variants in more than 100,000 people and found that these variants could be aggregated and turned into a “polygenic score” that was linked with educational attainment"
Political correctness forbade mention of whether the linking “psychological characteristics” chiefly involved the g factor....
LEFT GETS PHYSICAL
Desperate at the inexorable takeover of the low-class White votes which the left had assumed to be its own, even the holy Huffington Post allowed advocacy of violence against the ‘fascism’ of The Donald (and equally of British Brexiteers and Continental ‘far right’ patriots). See below:
Jesse Benn, Huffington Post, June 6, 2016:
"The rise of Donald Trump has exposed the frightening underbelly of America’s foulest tendencies. ....Trump has not just flagrantly violated the typical boundaries of political discourse, his candidacy is linked to multiple instances of violence. It shouldn’t be a surprise that opposition to him has responded in kind. Yet, a lot of people seem shocked and appalled at this perfectly logical reaction.
In the face of media, politicians, and GOP primary voters normalizing Trump as a presidential candidate—whatever your personal beliefs regarding violent resistance—there’s an inherent value in forestalling Trump’s normalization. Violent resistance accomplishes this. In spite of this, such resistance is apparently more offensive and unacceptable to societal norms and liberal sensibilities than the nastiness being resisted in the first place. ....Violence that takes place at Trump rallies –- in support or opposition –- is a reaction to the tone he’s set, and the blame for it should land primarily on his shoulders"
KILLINGS’ CAUSAL CLUSTER CENTRED ON ISLAM
As 49 dancing homosexuals were despatched and another few score injured in the early morning at an Orlando, Florida, nightclub, commentators advanced their own favourite causal factors. Donald Trump blamed radical Islam; the Guardian’s Owen Jones – a young yag himself – blamed homophobia; President Obarmy blamed lax US gun laws; some blamed mental illness (for the shooter was a manic-depressive) and drug use (the attacker used steroids; and some blamed PeeCee (the attacker’s craziness and homophobia had come to the attention of his employer (a security company – the UK-based ‘G4S’) and the FBI but no action was taken because the attacker was a Muslim.
In truth, all these factors were probably involved in multiplicative interaction with each other and easily so since they covary in the general population. But the central factor was surely Islam: attacker Omar Mateen was a Muslim who sometimes expressed extreme views and claimed membership of Hezbollah and even phoned police to tell of his allegiance to ISICK; his father was a Muslim who, despite living in New York, was a contender for the presidency of his native Afghanistan; Mateen’s wife – whom he beat daily – was a Muslim who made no effort to report his peculiarities to police.
Moreover, whatever the other causal complexities, Islam was plainly partly causal directly to homophobia, intolerance, psychopathic violence and wife abuse. No wonder The Donald was quick to observe that the Orlando horror was a fresh sign of Muesli ‘invasion without uniforms; and that Hillary Clinton’s declining to denounce radical Islam showed she must herself be “crazy.”
Yet ‘liberal’ apologists for Islam threw themselves tirelessly into insisting MSM attribute the outrage – the worst against yags since the Holocaust -- to nothing but homophobia.
Contradicting any conventional of that sort, it transpired that Mateen was well known to be himself a homosexual; and he had trawled for partners at the club where he would go on the rampage and also online.
The murderous antipathy of Western Mueslis to yags was confirmed as five Allahmaniacs went on trial in Luton, UK, for urging coreligionists to join and fight for ISICK. A speech was recorded by an undercover officer referred to as Kamal, who spent 20 months infiltrating the Muesli group and recording their meetings (Times, 16 vi).
One Mohammed told the group: “When the parliament are making laws and having Gay Pride today in the UK, Gay Pride, where’s the pride in being gay? There’s no pride in being gay.” He added: “Alhamdulillah [praise to be God] the people haven’t caught you, or it’s high building for you.”
CHANGE YOU CAN (NOW) BELIEVE IN
As Brexit maintained for a week a 6% lead in UK opinion polls, the ‘liberal’-left’s darling columnist, Italian-homed Polly Toynbee cracked: the patriotic White working class on whom Polly et al. had relied for tradition-respecting votes (even as the likes of Polly and Owen Jones enthused about such unlikely bedfellows as Islam, feminism, disablism and yaggery were to be denounced as foolish neo-Nazis who would wreck the comfy world of peecee piety that ‘anti-Nazis’ had inflicted on British public life while keeping business sweet by letting foreign slave labour stream in.
More intellectually, Polly began to admit the major re-alignment of Western politics into ‘national welfarism’ vs ‘peecee globalism’ long foreseen in this blog. Guardian, 14 vi. See below:
"This is the sound of Britain breaking. Here ends our “moderate, tolerant” self-image. Imagine Brexit wins and two years later prime minister Boris Johnson is still embroiled in quarrelsome EU exit talks. ....Barking and Nottingham people will see no change, same migrants, same sense of powerlessness. Recession-hit, facing worse cuts, voters won’t blame themselves for their own folly. Old problems are unresolved – an economy reliant on City and property bubbles, low skills, low productivity, atrophied public services, hopes raised and dashed. [Michael] Gove and Johnson risk losing control of the furies they have unleashed.
As high-status Ford jobs are swapped for low-paid warehouse work, indignation is diverted daily against migrants.
That moment is fertile for some yet-worse demagogue who calls for throwing out migrants already here. Expect the volume to be raised against “elites” – anti-parliament, anti-politics, bored of democracy itself. Ignite hatred against Europe, blame Brussels for deliberately impoverishing us in revenge, stirring centuries-old enmities.
Blend all that with a little nationalistic leftish populism, not all of it bad: nationalise our utilities and rail, eject foreign owners from key industries and property, pump up armed forces and national pride. These are potent ingredients for militant majoritarianism, blaming minorities and minority opinions. The Human Rights Act is abolished and the BBC absorbed into government. National socialism {= Nazism/NSDAP) will no doubt carry a new name – but it’s there in the making"
Polly’s belated recognition of this blog’s ‘realignment’ thesis was supported by top columnist Rachel Sylvester in the Times (14 vi). See below:
"One West Midlands MP estimates that 60 per cent of Labour voters in his constituency are supporting Brexit. “The Remain Labour MPs who go out canvassing are tearing their hair out because it’s so overwhelmingly for Leave. But to be honest I’m shocked that they’re shocked. Traditional Labour voters are not enthusiastic about the EU and they’re furious about immigration.” ....
The truth is that the referendum is exposing Labour’s breach with its traditional voters in a way that has profound implications for the country as well as the party. In Birmingham, campaigners were told to take all mentions of immigration out of their literature. Although the local MPs begged to be allowed to tackle local concerns head on, they were banned from doing so by party staff following instructions from the leader’s office. ....
Labour and the Remain campaign are now, as one former shadow cabinet minister puts it, “reaping the whirlwind” of years of ignoring voters. For those who feel dissatisfied with the status quo — the “left behind” voters who have suffered from globalisation — Brexit feels like the only way of changing their situation in the absence of a credible alternative government. ....
In an era of identity politics, when tribal loyalties are breaking down and culture wars are breaking out, the Labour coalition is fracturing. ....
Labour [has been] turning into one big Islington dinner party offering vegan lasagne to people who prefer beef. One Labour MP says that the [referendum] campaign is exposing growing tensions within his party just as much as among the Conservatives. There’s a rupture between the metropolitan, liberal wing and the traditional, working-class base. The Tory splits are Westminster high politics but the Labour ones are a shifting of the tectonic plates.”
Melanie Phillips (Times, 14 vi) chipped in with “We are witnessing, in effect, a mass uprising across the West against globalisation” – and, she might have added, against globalisation’s bolt-on philosophies of multiculturalism and political correctness which had been forced on cowardly businessmen, state-employed top fat cats and financiers by ‘liberal’-left bullying. – Funny to think that as metropolitan lefties were rejected by a revived Old Labour party, they would have to seek their fortune among cuckservatives just as Christians had historically been sure to maintain bridges with the rich and powerful who in return for a reasonable press kept churches afloat!
MULTICULT MIGRATION MOONIES MEET MATCH
As the killing of a well-liked youngish female Labour MP, a keen REMAINer along with her husband, by a 52-yr Yorkshire depressive, weirdo and loner who had once made occasional ‘hard right’ contacts, allowed REMAINer Daft Dave to close the EUSSR referendum campaign with five days of national mourning for the saintly Jo Cox, US columnist David Frum (Times, 18 vi) observed that the West’s recent move towards anti-‘expert’, anti-establishment, anti-PeeCee and pro-nationalist sentiment could be traced to the bizarre infliction of yet more mass immigration by the likes of multiculti-maddened Merkel and Obarmy (and, he could have added, Britain’s slave-seeking Labourites who needed at once to placate money men and to replace the White working-class voters whom Labour had deserted). See below:
"....after only the briefest pause during the deep recession of 2008-2009, legal and illegal migration to the US has accelerated again: about 1.1 million legal migrants in both 2014 and last year, plus more than 500,000 illegal migrants. This pace represents a near doubling of the pace of migration during the deepest years of the recession.
It has been the policy of the Obama administration to welcome even faster migration in the future. The package negotiated with Congress in 2013 would have doubled legal migration. A Republican mutiny forced its abandonment. Obama responded with orders suspending enforcement against approximately half the illegal aliens in the US: those who’d entered the US as children, then of those who had entered in early adolescence, then later of their parents as well.
Within weeks of the later orders being issued, tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American minors surged across the US border. Thousands more have followed in the two years since.
Even more predictable than this surge are the dangerous cultural and political consequences. Opposition to Obama’s migration policy fuels Trump’s, just as reaction against Angela Merkel’s has animated nationalist movements across Europe.
Liberals have tended to assume that mass migration is essential to society. But we should have learnt by now that mass migration is one of the greatest threats to a liberal system. In Trump’s America, as in France and Germany, excess migration triggers a backlash among the host population. Borders are as necessary to a free society as laws: they are the first law that makes a country a country.
Obama has spoken powerfully against Trump’s demagoguery. His criticism might more usefully be directed inwards: for it was his own decisions that enabled the rise of such a simultaneously ludicrous and sinister challenger"
Whether the orgy of mourning for REMAINer Jo would make voting LEAVE on Thursday 23rd – PeeCee’s date with destiny, at least till The Donald got his chance to knock it out in November – remained to be seen. MSM preferred to play up shooter Thomas Mair’s ancient internet links rather than his seeking psychiatric help for a depressive episode just the day before the killing.*
The BBC even claimed that, after a little epilepsy in childhood, Mair had no mental illness*; and it disregarded the amazement of Mair’s brother and mixed-race half-brother at the very suggestion that Mair was ‘far right’ or ‘racist,’ ‘vile’ etc. – he was best known for free tending of old ladies’ gardens and attendance at his public library.
There was nothing to disturb the referendum’s avoidance of serious discussion of mass low-IQ immigration, for all that this was what concerned many voters, especially LEAVErs. Only UKIP guru and LEAVEr Nigel Farage dared an advert giving a flash of ‘Syrian’ pumigrants trekking in their hundreds across Slovenia towards Germany – an advert which had him instantly condemned on the Beeb as a ‘racist’ etc., yet which might just get through to the part of Britain’s proletariat that had not yielded to welfarism and remained proud, pugilistic, pie-scoffing, pint-quaffing, pub-crawling and parliamentary in its love of quick-fire and good-humoured debate in the language which England had given the world but which the forever-warmongering French forbade to the dismal yet dictatorial EUSSR.
*Most likely the enlightened Beeb no longer regarded ‘bipolar disorder’ as an illness – along with such mere ‘issues’ as schizophrenia, hysteria, homosexuality and psychopathy – probably racism, xenophobia, militarism and uninvited caning were the only ‘real’ mental pathologies left....
