Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.
This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.
So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.
This is the new Samizdat. We muse use it while we can.
https://www.breitbart.com/the-media/2019/02/11/top-bbc-journalist-allegedly-likens-working-class-men-to-amazonia-cannibals-in-undercover-footage/
BBC flagship political show Panorama’s John Sweeney has allegedly been caught referring to working-class men as being like “cannibals from Amazonia” in an undercover video released by Tommy Robinson.
The footage was posted to Robinson’s social media accounts on both Facebook and Instagram over the weekend and shows the former English Defence League leader confronting Sweeney over his comments.
Sweeney seems to describe meeting a working-class white man named Danny in a BBC green room saying, “it was unusual to meet a white working class male in the Newsnight green room.”
“It was so unusual that me and one of my mates went down there to have a drink with him in the way that you would do with somebody, from the, you know a cannibal from the Amazonian, erm, from Amazonia or maybe a creature from outer space,” he allegedly said
I add that this is absolutely typical UK. One of the fallacies is that the Empire was founded “on the playing fields of Eton”. That is absolute rubbish as it was founded on the sewers of Glasgow, Dublin, Sheffield, London etc.. The UK elite treated their people far worse than serfs (who at least had value) and far worse than the UK treated ANY colonial indigenes and it now appears that they have every intention of reharnessing them in the name of globalism.
i AGREE.
And the video clip is only an appetizer for what’s coming up from the great Tommy Robinson re BBC.
How I wish someone would do the same with the CBC.
“The UK elite treated their people far worse than serfs (who at least had value) and far worse than the UK treated ANY colonial indigenes and it now appears that they have every intention of reharnessing them in the name of globalism.”
Which will only make it that much easier to herd these toffy poms into the tumbrels.
The correct term that Panorama’s John Sweeney could not find, to describe the Working Class, (such are the latte-tables scattered with skimmed-books), is “oik”.
“oik”
Or its adjective form, “oikish”. Kudos for your choice of Brit idiom, PC.

The similarities between the Green News Deal and this French Red New Deal is no coincidence. They show that not only the climate change nuts communicate and share globally their future plans, but facing a general backlash from a public that is more and more doubtful (Right now, people in the Midwest are dreaming of global warming), they will push toward a more and more coercive and totalitarian world.
Demented. It’s a gift to Trump for his 2020 reelection campaign.
They think the Propaganda Media will be able to cover up this attack on freedom.
“They think the Propaganda Media will be able to cover up this attack on freedom.”
A fig leaf the size of New York City wouldn’t cover the left nut of this venomous ideological Frankenstein.
“t’s a gift to Trump for his 2020 reelection campaign.
Barring outright assassination (perish the thought), losing in 2020 will require Trump to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
Anyone who thinks that Democrat Party bloodletting has reached its peak is in for a big surprise. During this upcoming Primary Season, the Left’s cannibals will glut themselves
sillierto the point of distension before calling it a day.I wonder if the prols realize that these rules ONLY apply to them and not to their masters: the globalist elite? Superficially they cover all but…… According to my family, the rich European soccer teams are trying to form a super league from which they cannot be removed while inviting a few select others who can be. This is to ensure that they stay both rich and successful. I wonder if the above rules are the beginning of the creation of an obvious schism between the elite and the rest?
Only if they succeed, I was at the VA yesterday (close to all day) and the mood of the vets is “If Trump can’t do the job we can”.
““If Trump can’t do the job we can”.”
Music to my ears. Talk about a battle cry! Johnny Reb ain’t got nuthin’ on that.
Yup music to our ears, there are 30 million vets in the US and about half of them are still capable of combat. If only two thirds of them (a low number) support freedom and a return to the Representative Republic we are suppose to be they are still the largest Army in history.
“I wonder if the prols realize that these rules ONLY apply to them and not to their masters: the globalist elite?”
The only meaningful answer is, “Since when hasn’t it?”
Old joke:
Husband: Ethel, why do you always answer my questions with questions?!
Wife: Do I dear?
I get the feeling that there’s a lot of questions that are going to be answered with yet more questions until the gloves finally come off.

Keep your friends close … and your (co-opted) enemies closer. (See my comment below.)
Quote from above: “The plan is laid out on the government bank Caisse des Depots et Consignations website for the State-owned NGO Novethic”
How is it possible for such entirely humorless idjits like AOC to nonetheless be such ambulatory mother lodes of comedy gold? I full well understand how inept philosophy and cognitive dissonance can set the stage for near-endless hilarity, but this is ridiculous!.
NOTE: — Do you see? There it is again! This is where all that Leftist codswallop summits Mount YJCMTSU and ropes its way to the Comedic Chomolunga of, “This shït writes itself!” —
“The plan is laid out on the government bank Caisse des Depots et Consignations website for the State-owned NGO Novethic.”
The plan is laid out on the government bank Caisse des Despots et Consignations website for the State-owned NGO No-ethic.
One never ceases to be amazed at how sensitive these over-elaborate, officious names are to the diddling of a mere letter or two. As for these little chestnuts (steaming on the ashes of Western Civilization):
For now, let’s please ignore item number two, as we’ve already gotten our fill about high-tech’s new 5G telecom slut from China Uncensored’s fabulous-as-usual exposé of the Huawei imbroglio.
The other three remaining bullets are just that. Rounds to the center mass of AOC’s Brave New Claptrap. In reverse order:
A: Reduce video streaming by a factor of three?
.
.
.
.
Have we stopped laughing yet?
.
.
.
No … Really … Please stop now.
.
It’s a given that television is the true “opiate of the masses”. Any suggestion that this universal, Luer-connected, drip feed of propagandist soporifics be recalibrated from its current 14 gauge catheter to a diminutive IV hypodermic will be welcomed like binary gender references at the Humberside cop shop.
If anything, this is where the Left’s demure naïveté of, “Who me?” gets particularly tedious. Hollyweird is proof positive that Prog PoMos know damn well how American viewers are addicted to—and too-easily manipulated by—broadcast content (network or otherwise).
In Globalist circles, even mumbled talk of choking off this control conduit is a prosecutable offense. Starry-eyed gits like AOC may or WILL have to find out the hard way about just how ossified mega-corporations can be when it comes to changing the status quo.
[Insert “Sadder, Budweiser” limerick, >here<.]
B: As to, prohibiting “online advertising on websites”. Sure thing. This is what “Net Neutrality” was all about … and not just some backroom scheme to commercially monopolize the cybersphere.
No matter how much Luddites wish it were so, the Internet is a bell that cannot be “un-rung”. It’ll never go away (especially not if the IoT’s swarm of AIs have anything to say about it!).
The utopian dreams of Socialist policy wonks like AOC only cement Bezmenov’s smug (and searingly candid) prediction about how disenchanted visionaries like her will ‘go to the wall first’.
C: Now we get to placing a “Ban on the sale of televisions over 40 inches”. Hoo boy, where to begin with this little gem?
First of all, consumer trends, technology innovations, and marketplace agendas all point towards in-home Next-Gen Holodecks and not screens the size that some people have in their bathrooms.
Secondly, the skin-deep “green” of AOC’s watermelon politics may as well be the scarred bottom-grain of a rhinoceros hide when compared to the Spockian levels of cosmetic greenery that Transnational concerns dress their windows with.
For Tranzi-Globalist-One-World-Government types, television screen sizes are like the Panama Canal.
The wider the better.
You’ve got better chances of slimming down Rosie O’Donnell for bikini season than persuading lobbyists that small televisions are good for business-as-usual.
Now, let’s string these little pearls together, shall we?
Regulation-sized televisions welded to 5G surveillance without content monetization of speed-limited streaming.
Can’t you just hear the congress of cannibal tribes all ascreech for AOCs still-warm blood?
Across the entire wealth spectrum, every single demographic segment contains factions that—for an incredible variety of sometimes-conflicting reasons—would go all “pitchforks and torches” over the previous summation.
Which is precisely why AOC et al will NEVER use such plain language to describe their plan for a New World Communist Order.

https://www.thenewamerican.com/tech/environment/item/31465-green-new-deal-would-kill-almost-everyone-warns-greenpeace-co-founder
CALGARY, Canada — The “Green New Deal” proposed by congressional Democrats is a “recipe for mass suicide” and the “most ridiculous scenario I ever heard,” Greenpeace Co-Founder Patrick Moore (shown) warned in an exclusive interview with The New American. In fact, Dr. Moore warned that if the “completely preposterous” prescriptions in the scheme were actually implemented, Americans could be forced to turn to cannibalism to avoid starvation — and they still would not survive. Other experts such as Craig Rucker, the executive director of the environmental group Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT), also sounded the alarm about the “green” proposal in Congress, comparing it to Soviet five-year plans and calling it a “prescription for disaster.”
The so-called Green New Deal is a massive scheme to, among other goals, restructure the U.S. economy. It is being advanced by a coalition of radical communist and socialist Democrats in Congress led by U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). A resolution (H. Res. 109) “recognizing the duty of the Federal Government to create a Green New Deal (GND)” already has 67 co-sponsors in the House. If the scheme outlined in the resolution expressing the “sense of the House” is implemented, it would seek to eliminate air travel, the eating of steaks, the use of hydrocarbons, and more. It would aim to completely end all emissions of CO2 — an essential gas exhaled by every living person and required by plants — over the coming decade.
Moore, who was one of six international directors of Greenpeace, was flabbergasted that something so ludicrous could even be proposed, much less be advanced in the U.S. government. “It is quite amazing that someone that is in government — actually elected to the government of the United States of America — would propose that we eliminate all fossil fuels in 12 years,” he said in an on-camera interview with The New American from Canada. “This would basically result, if we did it on a global level, it would result in the decimation of the human population from 7-odd billion down to who knows how few people.” It would end up killing almost everyone on the planet, he added.
Worse than mass death would be the way people reacted. “It would basically begin a process of cannibalization among the human species, because the food could not be delivered to the stores in the middle of the cities anymore,” Moore continued. “The point that bothers me the most is that if you eliminated fossil fuels, every tree in the world would be cut for fuel. There is no other source for heating and cooking once you eliminate fossil fuels. You could use animal dung, if there were any animals left, but the animals would all die too because they would all get eaten.”
Moore also slammed the “social aspects” of the Green New Deal proposals such as “paying people who are unwilling to work,” according to a FAQ released by Ocasio-Cortez’ office. “I can’t believe that anyone would write that in a proposal for law in the United States of America,” he said, calling it “just unbelievable.” Indeed, that language and other half-baked ideas caused nationwide ridicule of Ocasio-Cortez and others involved in pushing the “New Deal.” The ridicule got so intense that one of its propoents eventually lied, claiming that mischievous Republicans might have put out a fake Green New Deal document to make Democrats look ridiculous. But then the truth came out, despite the FAQ being removed from Cortez’s congressional website.
But the absurdity of it all may be a boost to Republicans and President Donald Trump. “We have a situation where something completely preposterous is being backed by a large number of Democratic congressional elected representatives in the United States of America,” Moore said. “This is actually going to put Trump right over the top. I cannot see how this can possibly be negative for him. It can only be positive, because people recognize when something is preposterous. And I think that is the best word for it.”
“The best term for it is actually mass-suicidal,” Moore added. “Why would anyone vote for something that was going to result in the death of nearly all humans on Earth?” As far as what Americans could do who support the environment but not mass suicide, Moore urged people not to vote for anyone who would support the “Green New Deal.”
Michelle: Learn to make paragraphs. No paragraph should be more than 5.5 lines, including at least 2 full stops.
That said, the New Green Deal: One item caught my attention and nobody mentioned it. The trans-ocean train track. What happens when a sudden hurricane windstorm shows up? Also, it’s an ideal target for terrorism, all they have to do is damage a tiny part of the track which can be done via drone.
And here was I deliberately removing the spacing between paragraphs to compress and save space. I do realize that it takes more effort to read it like that but I already have massive problems in opening this page ( a direct function of amount of content) and I thought that I would contribute to reducing this (however little) and especially so in long posts. I will take your point under advisement but it is Eeyore to whom I will defer. Over to him : )
*And saving the carbon-copy footprint.*
In the future there may be no printed books. This being outlawed. Because they are not linked to the internet. (The reason given though, will be to reduce the trees grown that destroy the natural farming habitat. And to ‘Save The Planet’).
This mean that when an ancient novel is quoted – that goes against the Narrative – the Uptranslation© version is amended to be Cultural Revolution appropriate. Going back to the Source©
That is exactly my father greatly expanded the family library to include many subjects about which no one had any real current interest. I now understand why the one on gun smithing. Many of them are non PC and out of print.
Already the would be “Shakespeares” ( that reference is about his actions not their quality) are hard at work in Hollywood and in rewriting school textbooks. If you do not have one, I would grab a hard cover copy of Animal Farm and 1984 before they too are “bowdlerized”. Once it is all digital it is at the mercy of the delete button.
Far worse than delete, the edit button.
“And here was I deliberately removing the spacing between paragraphs to compress and save space.”
It’s only electrons, pretty lady.
A blank gap in text, no matter how large, consumes less than a handful of characters to render.
Byte 1. = EOT (End of Text – or file)
Byte 2. = Number of intervening spaces
Byte 3. = SOT (Start of Text – or new file)
This sort of text compression has been around for well over thirty years—my friends at Cray supercomputers were using it in the early eighties—and applies to images as well (e.g., large areas of unchanging hue or tone).
Line break and paragraph break to your heart’s content, secure in the knowledge that it’s only another several trillion innocent electrons being sent to a cruel and uncaring death. [sob]
And here was I deliberately removing the spacing between paragraphs to compress and save space.
I’m always torn on this style point.
I tend toward the extreme – a sentence or two then a break. My posts get stringy, but since I personally find “spacey” comments easier to read, that’s how I go.

“‘What’s Good For People is Good for Nature,’ Environmental Leader Says”
The New America Video – February 11, 2019
CALGARY, Canada–Free markets, private property, and the prosperity they produce are not just good for people, but they protect the environment as well, explained Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT) Executive Director Craig Rucker. In an interview with The New American, Rucker pointed out that the countries with the cleanest environments are also the most economically free nations. “What’s good for people is good for nature,” he said, calling for pro-growth policies that benefit people rather than government-enforced scarcity. “It’s like the old Chinese proverb: When there is food on the table, there are many problems; when there is no food on the table, there is one problem. Societies that do not take care of their people don’t have the resources to take care of the planet. So it’s no surprise that countries like the United States, like much of Europe, Australia, Japan–those that have the resources are the environmental leaders, and they are the ones attacked by the greens!” By contrast, societies with overbearing or even socialist governments such as the former Soviet Union have “abysmal” environmental records. He also drew a distinction between the “conservation” ethic, in which man is included in how to protect the planet, and the “preservation” ethic and the “Deep Green ecology” that views man as a “virus on the planet” that needs to be removed.
“It’s like the old Chinese proverb: When there is food on the table, there are many problems; when there is no food on the table, there is one problem.”
This massive understatement ignores something even more crucial. As in: What if there’s NO WATER TO:
• Drink
• Bath In
• Give Pets
• Fight Wars*
• Cook Foods
• Irrigate Farms
• Wash Clothing
• Extinguish Fires
• Ranch Livestock
• Support Aquaculture
• Treat Medical Patients
• Process Raw Materials
• Manage Thermal Loads
• Run Spaceflight Life Support
There’s a baker’s dozen right off the top of my head in somewhat relative priority. Food? Schmood! No water, no
soupfood for you! Hint: It’s why Communist China is setting itself up as East Asia’s Water King.* Given that human lifespans without water are measured in days, Red China is setting itself up to make so many enemies so fast, that it will make your head spin.
This is another good reason why—despite a complete lack of immediate geopolitical threats—the enemy-less Chicoms are going through such a huge military buildup.
Beijing knows damn well that all of their neighbors will come knocking when the taps run dry.
“Societies that do not take care of their people don’t have the resources to take care of the planet.”
This not only explains why the environmentally ignorant (or desperate) occupy such $h!thølés, but is in perfect keeping with my own interpretation of the Biblical phrase, “My cup runneth over.” In a list:
• Our bodies are vessels for—and vessels of—water.
• Just like all energy (e.g., water), we must husband our bodily reserves to experience optimum well-being.
• Solely out of momentary sympathy or for less-than-urgent reasons, indiscriminately giving away such bodily reserves (e.g., water, love, wealth, dignity, integrity, etc.) can be counterproductive and even injurious to one’s health.
• Harming your own ability to gather and retain energy (e.g., water) decreases any chances that an excess will happen which could promote productive sharing.
As in: The cup of our body must runneth over before being too generous to others (even family**) with this vital commodity. Only by properly managing this resource (i.e., “The Virtue of Being Selfish”), can there be any hope for genuine “ecology”, “environmentalism”, “green”, “earth-friendly”, “recycling, “reusing”, “repurposing”, “re-what-the-£ü¢kling” or any other meaningful conservation.
Finally, I continue to marvel at how so few people understand that the roots of Conservatism lie in Conservation (and vice versa).
** An excellent example of this compassionate “selfishness” is how adults must don an airplane’s emergency oxygen mask BEFORE assisting others less able (e.g., children, elderly, disabled, unresponsive, etc.).

The Mistress and the Slave.
One thing that strikes me reading this New Green Nonsense (ty Michelle) is how it essentially captures cities. Agenda 21 endeavors to herd people into cities. Rural existance is discouraged. It stands to reason that central planning minds intoxicated by control would engineer such bs. Just as newsworthy to me is that the radicals who wrote it think the time is right to release it. This means that as more of our young are indoctrinated, the greater the chance that such absurd thinking is acceptable to a critical mass.
It reminds me of the scene in Children of Men with Michael Caine. He lives outside the city in an sweet oasis.
In the end, though, these radicals are about as spicey as a bowl of cold porridge. Morons.
I want a t-shirt that says, in very small letters, “Don’t tell me what to think.”
Yes herding us all into cities localizes and eases control via food availability.
Climate change is occurring,. it always has. I personally do not GAD(polite) about climate when 1) overbreeding in Africa, the ME and Asia is not condemned; and 2) when everyone ignores the climatic holocaust that occurred between 21000 and 8000 BC when massive planet wide flooding that devastated the planet did occur after several millennia of widespread drought that had already killed off much of the planet and all in the total absence of human causality(unless you believe the bible). Climate “science” is a subset of the science cult and anyone who believes in it is an idiot. Unfortunately most <30 are included here thanks to criminal leftist "education" (see "misinformation"). I want retribution for those responsible for the crimes of the Left. All of them!
Is Islam REALLY the religion of peace?
Knowing the answer to that question defines your politics, your knowledge, your sanity and your integrity. It is a sad fact that so many fail without even realizing the consequences. Allowing a rabid dog into the house is bad enough. But to then deny it is rabid despite its blatant attempts to bite all and sundry, is IMO criminal and should be treated as such.
“Allowing a rabid dog into the house is bad enough. But to then deny it is rabid despite its blatant attempts to bite all and sundry, is IMO criminal and should be treated as such.”
It’s already a crime called “willful endangerment”, but just not actionable enough as yet. Anyone attempting to maintain this current pro-Globalist status quo is about to find out the meaning of, “enough”. As in: Basta ya!

‘Mr New World Order’: Twitter in Uproar Over Soros’ Analogy Comparing EU to USSR (sputniknews, Feb 12, 2019)
https://sputniknews.com/europe/201902121072343844-soros-eu-ussr-analogy/
“The Hungarian-born billionaire activist has been waging an ideological war with conservative Eurosceptic forces in countries such as Hungary, Poland, and Italy, spending hundreds of millions of dollars on his Open Society Foundations NGO across Europe and the United States.
George Soros has written an op-ed for MarketWatch, a finance and investing news site, warning that “anti-European forces” may enjoy an advantage at the upcoming European Parliament elections in May.
Urging a “sleeping pro-European majority” not to sleepwalk “into oblivion,” Soros made an eyebrow-raising argument by suggesting that “if they don’t, the European Union will go the way of the Soviet Union in 1991.”
“One can still make a case for preserving the EU in order to radically reinvent it. But that would require a change of heart in the EU,” Soros stressed. “The current leadership is reminiscent of the politburo when the Soviet Union collapsed – continuing to issue ukazes [orders] as if they were still relevant,” he added.
The upcoming European parliamentary elections are set to become an “inflection point” for the European project, the billionaire argued. According to Soros, anti-EU forces enjoy an advantage thanks to an “outdated party system,” the “practical impossibility” of changing the EU treaty, and a “lack of legal tools for disciplining member states that violate the principles on which the European Union was founded.”
Soros marked particular concern with Germany’s Alternative fur Deutschland, a right-wing Eurosceptic, anti-mass immigration party which he derided as “extremist.” At the same time, Soros praised the German Greens, calling them “the only consistently pro-European party in the country,” and one that, like the AfD, has also been rising in popularity.
Odd Logic
Soros’ odd analogy comparing the EU to the old Soviet Union was the main source of criticism on social media. Not only did the billionaire actively finance liberal pro-democracy forces in Soviet bloc nations such as Hungary, Poland and Czechoslovakia in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but users found it odd that he would compare the EU to a country which US President Ronald Reagan once called an “Evil Empire”.
“George I think most would agree that the USSR disappearing wasn’t the worst thing,” one user wrote. “Ummm like the USSR was a good thing?” another quipped. “I am probably reading too much into this, but…does Mr. Soros sound sort of disappointed that the Soviet Union folded?” a third chimed in.
Even Soros’ supporters said they were “peeved” by the “unhelpful analogy with the Soviet Union.”
Others took on some of the billionaire’s other arguments, including his proposal that Brussels be given more power to force EU members to comply with bloc rule, or called his op-ed “propaganda at its finest.””
‘We Shouldn’t Have Toppled Saddam Hussein’ – Danish People’s Party (sputniknews, Feb 12, 2019)
https://sputniknews.com/europe/201902121072343565-denmark-iraq-war-saddam-hussein/
“The right-wing Danish People’s Party has lamented the country’s participation in the US-led invasion of Iraq that led to Saddam Hussein’s downfall and destabilised the entire region. While regretting the man-made disaster, the party’s foreign spokesman suggested they attacked “the wrong country”.
Following the publication of a long-awaited investigation of Denmark’s engagement in the US-led operations in Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq, the Danish People’s party expressed belated regret for its role in Copenhagen’s much-criticised decision to invade Iraq and topple Saddam Hussein.
“Of course we should have never ousted Saddam Hussein and created all that drama. The secular leaders, including Gaddafi in Libya and Mubarak in Egypt, stabilised the Middle East. We helped topple all of them and create this current chaos”, the Danish People’s Party’s foreign spokesman Søren Espersen told Danish Radio….”
Teenager, 19, is rushed to hospital after thug throws acid in his face outside an east London station (dailymail, Feb 12, 2019)

“A teenager was rushed to hospital after an acid attack outside an Essex train station last night.
The 19-year-old was attacked on South Street, Romford at approximately 8.10pm yesterday.
The Metropolitan Police said the young man had a noxious thrown at him.

“The Metropolitan Police said no arrests have yet been made in connection with the [acid attack] investigation…”
This lack of apprehension (in every sense), is because law enforcement officers were caught shorthanded. What started in Humberside rapidly spread far afield as personnel previously focused on groomy-rapey-acidy-mutilatey-stabbiness were ordered off those cases.
This is due to how police switchboards everywhere began flooding with reports of online violence, cruel smirks, and emotionally distressing limericks being directed against society’s most vulnerable of all … the sexual deviants (i.e., Muslims and LGBTQXYZs).
This command level redirection of already scarce taxpayer-funded human capital was only exacerbated by additionally having to sift through equally important terabytes of forwarded Internet content flagged as offensive by basement snowflakes, selectively protected species, genderless rainbow unicorns, and all of their imaginary friends.
French Church Is Ninth in Eleven Days Vandalised Across the Country (breitbart, Feb 12, 2019)
https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/02/12/french-church-ninth-eleven-days-vandalised-across-country/
“A French church in the commune of Maisons-Laffitte was vandalised over the weekend and has become the ninth church to be desecrated across France in the last 11 days.
The attack, which targeted the Saint Nicolas Roman Catholic church, saw the tabernacle of the church overthrown and vandalised and is not the first church in the area to be vandalised in recent weeks, according to local prefect Jean-Jacques Brot, Le Parisien reports.
Mr Brot commented on the incident saying, “This vandalism is part of a sensitive and distressing context and the church of Saint-Nicolas de Houilles also suffered damage three times last week,” and went on to add, “It is an attack on the freedom of worship because they are attacking what is the heart of belief.”
According to the Observatoire de la Christianophobie (Observatory of Christianophobia), the incident is the ninth church attack in only 11 days with another church in the city of Tarn being not only vandalised but partially set on fire on February 5th. Two teenagers were later arrested in connection with the Tarn attack.
In the Notre-Dame-Des-Enfants in Nîmes last week an even more grotesque attack occurred when not only was the tabernacle of the church attacked and desecrated but the attackers smeared faeces on the walls of the church, as well.
Robert Wattebled, Bishop of Nîmes, condemned the attack saying, “The sign of the cross and the Blessed Sacrament have been the subject of serious injurious actions. This act of profanation hurts us all in our deepest convictions.”
The incidents are just the latest attacks on French churches in recent years. Last year, two young women were arrested in the department of Morbihan in Brittany after being caught attempting to set a church on fire.
Only a few months later, a gang of Romanian migrants was arrested by French police after it was suspected of robbing six churches in the Paris area and stealing up to 70,000 euros’ worth of items.”
EXCLUSIVE – Hungary: EU Wrong to Push Aside Christianity and National Identity, ‘Parallel Societies’ Dangerous (breitbart, Feb 12, 2019)
https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/02/12/exclusive-hungary-eu-wrong-to-push-aside-christianity-and-national-identity-parallel-societies-dangerous/
“Hungarian foreign minister Péter Szijjártó has said mass immigration is creating “parallel societies” in Europe and undermining security, and that Christianity is more persecuted than any other religion.
“We are proud of having a very rich Christian heritage, and we want to preserve that,” the Hungarian politician explained in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News Deputy Political Editor, Amanda House.
“That’s why we support Christian communities all over the world, because we take it as a matter of responsibility,” he continued, telling House that “Christianity is the most persecuted religion all over the world… look at [the] figures, it’s a fact.”
Szijjártó described how Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán has therefore created a state secretariat tasked exclusively with protecting Christian communities in places like Syria and Iraq.
“Bishops representing these churches come to us and ask us not to invite the members of their communities to come to Hungary, because if we do so then we will contribute to the elimination of those communities — which is basically the target of the terrorist organisations,” he explained.
“So, instead of encouraging them to leave, let’s help them to be able to stay.”
On the subject of European culture and the impact of mass migration more generally, Szijjártó noted that, in Western Europe, “parallel societies have been created.”
“It was kind of a dogmatic issue to speak about social integration of migrants as a huge success story, and if you pointed out facts which deny that, you were stigmatised immediately as anti-European, anti-humanitarian, anti-everything — as a bad person,” he said.
“[But] during the last years it turned out that parallel societies represent a huge security risk a huge security threat. Look at the western part of Europe: in the last four years there were more than 30 major terrorist attacks committed by persons with a migratory background; more than 300 people were killed and around 1,400 injured,” he recalled.
“And those who moved in under the framework of this mass migration showed total disrespect towards Christian culture, towards the communities living already in those countries,” he added.
Szijjártó told Breitbart that the Hungarian government did not believe in the “post-national” conception of the modern state as a neutral, multicultural space, and that it instead supported the maintaining a positive sense of national and historic identity.
“We think that our country can only be strong if we stick to our identity, if we stick to our heritage when it comes to history, religion, or culture — it is even said in our constitution that we are proud of all this heritage; we are proud to have a rich Christian culture and a rich history,” he explained.
“In Europe there are certain endeavours which suggest that Europe can only be strong if the member-states of the European Union get rid of all of these things — national identity, Christian culture, whatever.
“Our position is no, the European Union can only be strong, and Europe as such can only be strong again, if the member-states are themselves strong, and in order to be strong you need to stick to heritage and you need to be proud of your roots,” he insisted.”
Berlin Antifa Assault Populist Jewish Youth at Holocaust Film Screening (breitbart, Feb 12, 2019)
https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/02/12/antifa-berlin-assault-populist-jewish-youth-invited-holocaust-film-screening/
“Members of the far-left extremist Antifa movement have been accused of a brutal attack on affiliates of the youth wing of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) including attacking a Jewish member.
The four members of the AfD’s youth organisation Junge Alternative (JA) were initially invited to see a screening of a film about the Warsaw Ghetto during the Second World War by the director of the Berlinale film festival Dieter Kosslick at 10:30pm on Sunday night.
An AfD spokesman sent a statement on the incident to Breitbart London which included eye witness accounts from the youth group members who were attacked.
According to JA Berlin member Vadim Derksen, around “half a dozen” masked extremists attacked them only 50 yards from the theatre showing the film.
“They used improvised weapons they can’t be arrested for, but which can do serious damage. They held batteries in their fists to strike with, and one of them had a wine glass which he smashed, and used the broken stem to stab at us like a knife. I was cut in the upper arm and didn’t even notice it till I got home,” Derksen said.
Derksen also noted that none of the group was wearing any sort of clothing or symbols that would give them away as AfD members, questioning how the attackers knew who they were and where they would be that evening…”

Pompeo warns eastern Europe on Chinese and Russian meddling (abcnews, Feb 12, 2019)
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/pompeo-warns-eastern-europe-chinese-russian-meddling-61013017
“U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Tuesday invoked the 30th anniversary of the demise of communism to implore countries in Central and Eastern Europe to resist Chinese and Russian influence.
Speaking in the Slovak capital of Bratislava, Pompeo said China and Russia pose twin threats to the democratic and free-market gains made since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
He said the post-communist countries are particularly vulnerable to Chinese and Russian predatory investment and political meddling. To combat the threat, he said, the United States is committed to boosting its engagement in the region, through defense cooperation agreements and exchange programs.
He said because of its history and geography, Slovakia has “a special appreciation for the aggressive role Russia continues to play in the region,” particularly in Ukraine.
But, he said, “Russia is not the only nation that seeks to erode sovereignty and freedom in Europe.”
Pompeo said he had raised with Slovak officials the “need to guard against China’s economic and other efforts to create dependence and manipulate your political system.”
Pompeo is in Slovakia on the second leg of a five-nation European tour that began in Hungary and will take him to Poland, Belgium and Iceland.
He renewed a warning he delivered on Monday in Budapest that the United States may be forced to scale back certain operations in Europe and elsewhere if countries continue to do business with Chinese telecommunications company Huawei.
He said the U.S. had strong concerns about Huawei’s motives in Europe, especially in NATO and European Union member states, as well as its business practices.
“We’re fine with companies competing, but they have got to do so in a way that’s fair and open and transparent, and they can’t do so with anything other than an economic motive,” he said.
Pompeo said nations would have to consider choosing between Huawei and the United States. The warning was broad but pointedly delivered first in Hungary, a NATO ally and European Union member, where Huawei is a major player.
The U.S. has been warning countries about the risks of Chinese telecom technology as governments choose providers for the rollout of 5G wireless internet, which will enable faster download speeds but also greater connectivity among devices.
China has said the U.S. is just trying to suppress a rising competitor.
Pompeo said he hoped to reverse what he called a decade of U.S. disengagement in Central and Eastern Europe that created a vacuum Russia and China have exploited. Over the course of the past 10 years, he said, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese leaders have become much more aggressive in the region and made inroads.
“I want to make sure that the Slovakian people understand that America is engaged, we’re back,” he said earlier at a ceremony at Slovakia’s “Gate of Freedom,” a memorial on the banks of the Morava River at the Slovakian border with Austria that commemorates the 400 people killed at the borders of the former Czechoslovakia while attempting to escape the Iron Curtain between 1945 and 1989.”
We might’ve lost too much ground in years of neglecting Eastern Europe. They’ve had little choice but to reach out to China and even Russia. They’ve also learned we’re fickle: administrations change like a weathervane.
“They’ve also learned we’re fickle: administrations change like a weathervane.”
Damn every one of these cast iron windsocks back to Kennedy. If Trump prevails in 2020, there’s a remote chance of partially redeeming America’s inconstancy.

Germany bans 2 Kurdish publishing houses for backing PKK (abcnews, Feb 12, 2019)
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/germany-bans-kurdish-publishing-houses-61012118
“Germany’s top security official on Tuesday banned two publishers for allegedly belonging to a banned Kurdish organization.
German Interior Minister Horst Seehofer said he banned the publishers Mezopotamien Verlag und Vertrieb GmbH and the MIR Multimedia GmbH because they support the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK.
Authorities searched the two publishing houses in western and northern Germany on Tuesday, the Interior Ministry said in a statement.
“It’s necessary to push back the PKK, because they continue to be active in Germany despite being banned,” Seehofer said.
He said the two groups used their earnings solely to support the PKK, which was outlawed as a foreign terrorist group in Germany in 1993.
The Kurdish organization NAV-DEM condemned the ban of the publishers. Tahir Kocer, a chairman of the group, accused Germany of trying to suppress Kurdish culture.
“The Turkish state is trying for decades to erase Turkish identity and culture,” Kocer said. “With its ban, the German government has now decided to continue these inhuman politics on German ground.”
Germany is home to around 14,500 PKK supporters, according to the Interior Ministry.”

Fresh protests in Sudan call for ouster of al-Bashir (abcnews, Feb 12, 2019)
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/fresh-protests-sudan-call-ouster-al-bashir-61015038
“Hundreds of demonstrators are gathering in different Sudanese cities, protesting against autocratic President Omar al-Bashir.
Tuesday’s demonstrations were called by the Sudanese Professionals Association, an umbrella of independent professional unions.
Video footage shows demonstrators gathering at intersections chanting “just fall,” and calling for a “people’s revolution.”
The current wave of protests began Dec. 19, initially over surging prices and a failing economy, but quickly shifted to calls for an end to al-Bashir’s three-decade rule.
Al-Bashir, who seized power in a military coup, insists that only elections, which he intends to run in, could bring change.
Activists say at least 57 people have been killed in the protests. The government’s latest tally stands at 30 killed, but figures have not been updated in days.”
Anti-Semitic acts hit France amid anti-government protests
By SAMUEL PETREQUIN48 minutes ago
PARIS (AP) — Portraits of a Holocaust survivor stained with swastikas. A memorial in honor of a Jewish man vandalized. A bagel shop with the German word “Juden” sprayed on its front window.
These are just a few of the hundreds of anti-Semitic acts that have been committed in recent months in France, home to the world’s largest Jewish population outside Israel and the United States.
According to French authorities, registered incidents of anti-Semitism rose to 541 last year from 311 in 2017, an increase of 74 percent.

US strikes IS-held mosque as Syria battle intensifies (abcnews, Feb 12, 2019)
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/us-led-coalition-hits-mosque-syria-islamic-state-61013018
“The U.S. military said Tuesday it struck a mosque that had allegedly been used as an Islamic State control center, as American-allied Syrian forces battled the extremists in their last stronghold in eastern Syria amid reports of more civilian casualties.
The U.S.-led coalition said warplanes struck the mosque in the small town of Baghouz on Monday in support of the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces. It said the airstrike occurred as IS was using the mosque to direct attacks and employ suicide car bombs against the SDF.
“This mosque lost its protected status when ISIS deliberately chose to use it as a command and control center,” said the coalition’s deputy commander, Maj. Gen. Christopher Ghika, using another acronym for the group.
Hundreds of mostly foreign IS fighters are believed to remain in Baghouz and nearby areas, where the SDF began its final push Saturday after months of fighting. IS has been fighting back with suicide car bombs, sniper fire and booby traps, and has been using civilians as human shields, slowing the U.S.-backed fighters’ advance…”
Suspected militants kill 4 police in Pakistan (abcnews, Feb 12, 2019)

“Pakistani police say suspected militants killed four officers after opening fire on a police vehicle in the northwestern town of Dera Ismail Khan.
Local police official Mohammad Javed says another two police officers were wounded in Tuesday’s attack.
No group immediately claimed responsibility, but suspicion fell on Pakistani militants who have claimed previous attacks across the country.
Dera Ismail Khan is in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province bordering Afghanistan. The Pakistani Taliban and other militant groups have long operated it the porous border region.
The latest attack comes two weeks after gunmen stormed a police station, killing eight police officers and a civilian in the southwestern province of Baluchistan. Four militants were also killed in the attack.”
Turkey seeks 1,112 suspects linked to failed coup (abcnews, Feb 12, 2019)
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/turkey-seeks-1112-suspects-linked-failed-coup-61011800
“Turkey’s state-run news agency says authorities have issued detention warrants for 1,112 people suspected of links to the U.S.-based Muslim cleric who is blamed by Ankara for a failed coup attempt in 2016.
Anadolu Agency says the warrants were issued Tuesday as part of an investigation into alleged cheating in an exam in 2010 that allowed police officers to become deputy police inspectors. Prosecutors say questions were given to followers of cleric Fethullah Gulen before the test.
Anadolu says police launched simultaneous operations in the capital Ankara and 75 provinces.
The operation was one of the biggest against Gulen’s network since the coup attempt. Some 77,000 people have been arrested and around 130,000 others have been dismissed from state jobs since the coup.
Gulen denies involvement in the attempt.”
Turkey: 1,112 arrested over alleged links to US-based Fethullah Gulen
Turkish prosecutors issued arrest warrants for 1,112 people over their alleged links with the US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen, accused of leading the attempted coup in 2016. Footage from Tuesday shows Turkish forces carrying out arrests of suspects in the Turkish city of Adana.
The operation, anticipated on Sunday by Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu, is one of the biggest crackdowns targeting Gulen’s followers.
Around 77,000 people were arrested following the failed coup in July 2016, while 130,000 lost their state jobs in the government’s attempt to ‘purge’ state institutions from ‘gulenists.’
Tuesday’s operations were largely carried out in the capital Ankara, with hundreds of people detained across 76 provinces, as the Ankara chief prosecutor’s office confirmed.
North Korea may have made more nuclear bombs, but threat reduced: study
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – North Korea has continued to produce bomb fuel while in denuclearization talks with the United States and may have produced enough in the past year to add as many as seven nuclear weapons to its arsenal, according to a study released just weeks before a planned second summit between the North Korean leader and U.S. President Donald Trump.
However, the country’s freeze in nuclear and missile testing since 2017 mean that North Korea’s weapons program probably poses less of a threat than it did at the end of that year, the report by Stanford University’s Center for International Security and Cooperation found.

Apology isn’t enough: House Democrats must sanction Ilhan Omar
By J.E. Dyer February 11, 2019
This isn’t a time for joking. It is now clear that it isn’t a time for mild “dialogue” either. In America, Ilhan Omar has the right to express anti-Semitic views, using, if she chooses, the same anti-Semitic themes as Nazi propagandists. Her constituents in Minnesota have the right to elect her to Congress. But that doesn’t mean any of them has a right to any committee assignments for Omar in the House of Representatives, much less choice ones like the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Howard Portnoy noted earlier today that Omar offered an apology for implying that Jews exercise undue influence in Congress by buying it with payoffs from AIPAC. He assumed – with good reason – that her apology was insincere. I would point out that the “apology” was basically for being caught using an anti-Semitic trope, but since it also included a double-down on the meaning of the trope, the “apology” outed its own self as a fake.

Pelosi, Dems demand that Ilhan Omar forswear her deeply held beliefs
By Howard Portnoy February 11, 2019
You can find any number of stories in the media today with titles like “Democratic leaders call on Omar to apologize for remarks” (CNN) and “Pelosi, Dem leaders urge Omar to apologize for ‘anti-Semitic’ tweet” (The Hill).
All contain fundamentally the same information. All, for example, quote a statement issued jointly by Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic leaders accusing Rep. Ilhan Omar of using “anti-Semitic tropes and prejudicial accusations about Israel’s supporters” and calling on her “to immediately [sic] apologize for these hurtful comments.”
This is an exercise in cynicism and dishonesty, driven by a nakedly political agenda. Omar’s blatant hatred of Jews and Israel, manifested most recently in her admission on CNN that she finds the debates sparked by her controversial views on Israel to be “exciting,” is generating headlines, which threaten to tarnish the Democratic brand. The party elders are therefore telling her to cool it, which is tantamount to telling a tiger to change its stripes.
https://libertyunyielding.com/2019/02/11/pelosi-dems-demand-that-ilhan-omar-forswear-her-deeply-held-beliefs/
Idendity politics is coming back to bite the Dems, their pandering to the Islamic community means they have to condone the anti antisemitism of that community. But condoning the antisemitism will drive many others away from the Dems. The Dems now have to decide which group is more important, the Islamic community or the vast number of people who hate antisemitism?

the gateway pundit – President Trump Calls on Rep. Ilhan Omar to Resign, Says Her Apology Was ‘Lame’
President Donald Trump has asserted that he believes Congresswoman Ilhan Omar should either resign from Congress or at least from the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
The comment from the president comes in response to a controversial tweet from the lawmaker that has been widely regarded as antisemitic. Omar had said that Republican support for Israel is “all about the Benjamins.”
[…]When asked about her comments on Tuesday, President Trump called for her to resign.
“I think she should either resign from congress or she should certainly resign from the House Foreign Affairs Committee,” President Trump told members of the White House Press Pool, adding that the hateful comments are “deep seeded in her heart.”
President Trump also asserted that her apology was “lame.”

The tax system explained in beer: So simple even AOC can follow it

OK, that last dig was gratuitous, particularly since Ocasio-Cortez is not the only Democrat in Congress who is clueless as to how the tax system operates. Sen. Kamala Harris, who has designs on becoming president in 2020, tellingly tweeted this on Monday:

Europe, Please Wake Up
Feb 11, 2019 GEORGE SOROS
The first step to defending Europe from its enemies, both internal and external, is to recognize the magnitude of the threat they present. The second is to awaken the sleeping pro-European majority and mobilize it to defend the values on which the EU was founded.
MUNICH – Europe is sleepwalking into oblivion, and the people of Europe need to wake up before it is too late. If they don’t, the European Union will go the way of the Soviet Union in 1991. Neither our leaders nor ordinary citizens seem to understand that we are experiencing a revolutionary moment, that the range of possibilities is very broad, and that the eventual outcome is thus highly uncertain.
Most of us assume that the future will more or less resemble the present, but this is not necessarily so. In a long and eventful life, I have witnessed many periods of what I call radical disequilibrium. We are living in such a period today.
The next inflection point will be the elections for the European Parliament in May 2019. Unfortunately, anti-European forces will enjoy a competitive advantage in the balloting. There are several reasons for this, including the outdated party system that prevails in most European countries, the practical impossibility of treaty change, and the lack of legal tools for disciplining member states that violate the principles on which the European Union was founded. The EU can impose the acquis communautaire (the body of European Union law) on applicant countries, but lacks sufficient capacity to enforce member states’ compliance.
The antiquated party system hampers those who want to preserve the values on which the EU was founded, but helps those who want to replace those values with something radically different. This is true in individual countries and even more so in trans-European alliances.
The party system of individual states reflects the divisions that mattered in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, such as the conflict between capital and labor. But the cleavage that matters most today is between pro- and anti-European forces.
The EU’s dominant country is Germany, and the dominant political alliance in Germany – between the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and the Bavaria-based Christian Social Union (CSU) – has become unsustainable. The alliance worked as long as there was no significant party in Bavaria to the right of the CSU. That changed with the rise of the extremist Alternative für Deutschland (AfD). In last September’s länder elections, the CSU’s result was its worst in over six decades, and the AfD entered the Bavarian Parliament for the first time.
The AfD’s rise removed the raison d’être of the CDU-CSU alliance. But that alliance cannot be broken up without triggering new elections that neither Germany nor Europe can afford. As it is, the current ruling coalition cannot be as robustly pro-European as it would be without the AfD threatening its right flank.
The situation is far from hopeless. The German Greens have emerged as the only consistently pro-European party in the country, and they continue rising in opinion polls, whereas the AfD seems to have reached its highpoint (except in the former East Germany). But now CDU/CSU voters are represented by a party whose commitment to European values is ambivalent.
In the United Kingdom, too, an antiquated party structure prevents the popular will from finding proper expression. Both Labour and the Conservatives are internally divided, but their leaders, Jeremy Corbyn and Theresa May, respectively, are so determined to deliver Brexit that they have agreed to cooperate to attain it. The situation is so complicated that most Britons just want to get it over with, although it will be the defining event for the country for decades to come.
But the collusion between Corbyn and May has aroused opposition in both parties, which in the case of Labour is bordering on rebellion. The day after Corbyn and May met, May announced a program to aid impoverished pro-Brexit Labour constituencies in the north of England. Corbyn is now accused of betraying the pledge he made at Labour’s September 2018 party conference to back a second Brexit referendum if holding an election is not possible.
The public is also becoming aware of the dire consequences of Brexit. The chances that May’s deal will be rejected on February 14 are growing by the day. That could set in motion a groundswell of support for a referendum or, even better, for revoking Britain’s Article 50 notification.
Italy finds itself in a similar predicament. The EU made a fatal mistake in 2017 by strictly enforcing the Dublin Agreement, which unfairly burdens countries like Italy where migrants first enter the EU. This drove Italy’s predominantly pro-European and pro-immigration electorate into the arms of the anti-European League party and Five Star Movement in 2018. The previously dominant Democratic Party is in disarray. As a result, the significant portion of the electorate that remains pro-European has no party to vote for. There is, however, an attempt underway to organize a united pro-European list. A similar reordering of party systems is happening in France, Poland, Sweden, and probably elsewhere.1
When it comes to trans-European alliances, the situation is even worse. National parties at least have some roots in the past, but the trans-European alliances are entirely dictated by party leaders’ self-interest. The European People’s Party (EPP) is the worst offender. The EPP is almost entirely devoid of principles, as demonstrated by its willingness to permit the continued membership of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz in order to preserve its majority and control the allocation of top jobs in the EU. Anti-European forces may look good in comparison: at least they have some principles, even if they are odious.
It is difficult to see how the pro-European parties can emerge victorious from the election in May unless they put Europe’s interests ahead of their own. One can still make a case for preserving the EU in order radically to reinvent it. But that would require a change of heart in the EU. The current leadership is reminiscent of the politburo when the Soviet Union collapsed – continuing to issue ukazes as if they were still relevant.
The first step to defending Europe from its enemies, both internal and external, is to recognize the magnitude of the threat they present. The second is to awaken the sleeping pro-European majority and mobilize it to defend the values on which the EU was founded. Otherwise, the dream of a united Europe could become the nightmare of the twenty-first century.

Congress reaches tentative deal that includes a paltry $1.375B for wall
By LU Staff February 12, 2019
The Democrats continue to use the safety of the American people as a bargaining chip in their negotiations with their Republican colleagues to avert another shutdown. Despite record numbers of migrants storming U.S. borders daily, congressional negotiators reached a tentative deal last night that would provide a mere $1.375 billion for the construction of additional physical barriers on the southern border.

How sex traffickers use black magic to force migrants into prostitution (BBC, Feb 12, 2019)
https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-europe-47203000/how-sex-traffickers-use-black-magic-to-force-migrants-into-prostitution
“During the height of the migrant crisis in 2016, over 11,000 Nigerian women made the journey to Italy in the hope of making a better life.
It’s estimated that 80% were trafficked and forced into prostitution.
Before they left home many were made to undergo a juju, or black magic, ceremony in which they swore – on pain of death – they would pay back their traffickers.
The strain of believing they were living under a spell has added to their mental health problems.
One women, Magdalen, shared her story with the BBC.”
VICE News – Inside Steve Bannon’s Town Hall For A Privately Funded Border Wall
While President Trump continued to battle with Congress over funding for building the border wall with Mexico, his former chief strategist Steve Bannon was out in Arizona to back a do-it-yourself approach.
Once the planet’s most powerful political strategist with access to the Oval Office, Bannon is now raising money to fulfill Trump’s signature campaign promise. On Friday he headlined an event at the banquet hall of a retirement community in Arizona to raise private funds for a border wall — made out of hemp. So far the project has raised an astonishing $22 million from small donors in just over a month.
He wants the wall to be technologically state-of-the-art. “I’m obsessed with the hempcrete,” Bannon said, referring to a concrete-like construction material made from hemp. “I think this plant has got tremendous entrepreneurial aspects to it and it’s innovation. We’re not sitting there saying, ‘Hey, just a concrete wall or just a steel barrier.’ It has to be advanced technology.”
VICE News joined Bannon and the team behind ‘We Build the Wall’ to learn how they plan to side-step Washington and build their own wall.

‘Welcome to 2084’: Norway’s Ex-Ambassador to KSA Warns of Islamic Censorship
Former Norwegian ambassador to Saudi Arabia Carl Schiøtz Wibye has argued that the worldwide Muslim campaign against critics of Islam was triggered by the Islamic backlash over cartoons of Prophet Muhammad, which was followed by the worldwide protests against the satirical French weekly magazine Charlie Hebdo.
The organisation Ex-Muslims of Norway, which by its own admission, fights for gender equality, integration, freedom of expression, human rights, the normalisation of “apostasy” and criticism of Islam, has accused Facebook of censorship after some of its posts were deleted.
According to the Norwegian news outlet Rights.no, Ex-Muslims of Norway leader Cemal Yucel Knudsen was banned from Facebook for a week for allegedly violating the community standards by posting a meme about the hijab.
In the pic shared by Knudsen, a Muslim mother tells her son that the hijab is her free choice. When asked what would happen if she chooses not to wear it, she comes with the following explanation: “First, your daddy will kick me in the gut. My family will disown me and friends will talk s**t about me. After I die, Allah will burn me in hell.”
Ex-Muslims of Norway bills itself as congregation of atheists, free thinkers, humanists, agnostics and former Muslims.
Former Norwegian ambassador to Saudi Arabia and author of the book “The Kingdom of Terror” Carl Schiotz Wibye weighed in, according to the Norwegian news outlet Resett.
“Many people are wondering why Facebook is increasingly often deleting posts of the Islam-critical sort. I would assume that the answer is quite simple: whenever such posts appear, the Muslim congregation in Norway mobilises and creates a ‘perfect storm’ aimed at the post”, Wibye said.
According to Wibye, faced with sufficiently wide-spread protests, Facebook “lays itself flat” and removes the posts.
“We will only see more of this as we import more and more religiously active (and non-working) Muslims to Norway. It’s part of the gradual global constraint of freedom of expression with regard to any critical comment on Islam”, the former ambassador wrote.
According to Carl Schiotz Wibye, this trend began with the so-called “cartoons battle” when a Danish daily newspaper published caricatures of Prophet Muhammad, and continued with Charlie Hebdo, the French satirical weekly that also made fun of the centrepiece of Islam.
“Now we notice the ripple effects even in Norway. There aren’t many people who have the backbone to resist this pressure. Welcome to 2084”, Wibye said.
Cemal Yucel Knudsen’s post was ultimately restored and he, as his organisation put it, was “released from the Facebook jail”.
Carl Schiotz Wibye is a former Norwegian diplomat, who served as an ambassador to Saudi Arabia from 2009 to 2014. Wibye has a military background in the Norwegian Army Corps of Engineers and is a master of Political Sciences from Oslo University.
Wibye is the author of “The Kingdom of Terror”, which maintains that Saudi Wahhabism is a belligerent cult rather than a religion, driven by fanatical calls for a holy war on all “infidels” including Jews, Christians, Shia-Muslims, Sufi-Muslims and even some Sunni-Muslims who are “not pure enough”. Wibye is not against Islam as such, but warns against the extremism cult within Islam, which with the support of the Saudi-backed “Quran schools” across the globe may have “catastrophic effects”.

Eurocrat Suggests Brexiteers Could ’End up on the Guillotine’ (breitbart, Feb 12, 2019)
https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/02/12/eurocrat-suggests-brexiteers-could-end-up-on-the-guillotine/
“The European Parliament’s Brexit Coordinator Guy Verhofstadt has suggested that Tory Brexiteers who reject a soft Brexit deal will be sent to the guillotine like the leaders of the French revolution.
“Within the Tory Party, the hard Brexiteers are compared to the leaders of the French Revolution,” Mr Vehofstadt said during a press conference at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, on Tuesday.
“I think Gove is Brissot, Boris Johnson is Danton, and Rees-Mogg is compared to Robespierre.
“But we should not forget that the efforts of these men were not appreciated by the Common Man they claimed to represent because they all ended up on the guillotine.
“So that’s important to remind [them].”…”
We all know who is going to the guillotine and Verhofstadt is one of them.

UK -TERRORIST CHIEF’S AID Jailed Al-Qaeda chief receives £800k in legal aid to appeal his conviction
Rangzieb Ahmed, 43, was the first person convicted in the UK on a charge of directing a terrorist organisation and ‘had links to the 7/7 London bombers’
AL-Qaeda’s top ranked boss jailed in Britain has received almost £800,000 legal aid to appeal his conviction.
Rangzieb Ahmed, 43, got life in 2008 for plotting attacks in the UK
Ahmed, said to have had links to the 7/7 London bombers who killed 52 in 2005, was found with notebooks listing details of terror contacts written in invisible ink.
He was also suspected of having contact with extremists behind the failed bomb plot in the capital two weeks later.
Rochdale-born Ahmed was arrested in Pakistan.
He was the first person convicted in the UK on a charge of directing a terrorist organisation.
Yet he has received £782,407 in taxpayer-funded hand-outs, a Sun on Sunday freedom of information request found.
It includes £589,667 to pay for a barrister and lawyers in court, plus £121,892 for a failed appeal against conviction in 2011.
He also got £60,435 towards a civil action against police as well as a further £306 for “legal help”.
He has a parole hearing next month and MP David Davies branded the payments “an outrage”.
He said: “He shouldn’t be walking the streets yet he is receiving vast amounts of taxpayers’ money in order to enable him to do so.”
The Legal Aid Agency said anyone facing crown court trial is eligible for help “subject to a strict means test.”

ctv news ‘I broke no laws there’: Canadian ISIS fighter wants help to return home
+ video
An Ontario man who spent four years fighting for ISIS and used social media to recruit others now wants to return home with the help of the Canadian government.
Canadian Mohammed Ali says the Islamic State terror group is abandoning its foreign militants as it continues losing ground against U.S.-backed Kurdish fighters.
The 28-year-old says he, his Canadian wife and their two children have been “hung out to dry” and that it is no longer safe for them in Syria.
“Why shouldn’t I be able to go home? I’ve done nothing in Canada. I’ve broken no laws there at all,” said Ali in an interview.
Ali and his family attempted to flee to Turkey after he was cast out of the terror group, but were captured by coalition-led forces. They have been detained in a Syrian prison for the past nine months.
Ali fears the Islamic State militants still have sleeper cells and that members are hiding out until U.S. forces withdraw from the war zone.
“They have pockets in the desert; they’ve got people intermingling with the population, acting as civilians — just biding their time,” said Ali.
But he isn’t the only Canadian in Syria asking for help.
On Sunday, two Canadian women fled one of ISIS’ last remaining strongholds and surrendered to coalition forces, according to a report from CNN. The two women, who spoke fluent English, said they were from Toronto and Alberta and travelled to Syria at their husbands’ insistence.
Non-profit group Families Against Violent Extremism, which says there are currently 27 Canadians detained in Syria, is lobbying for their return. The group says more than half of those detained are children under the age of five.
Global Affairs Canada previously confirmed that it is aware of Canadian citizens being detained in Syria, but said the government only has minimal means to provide aid.
“Given the security situation on the ground, the Government of Canada’s ability to provide consular assistance in any part of Syria is extremely limited,” Global Affairs spokesperson Richard Walker said in a statement to CTV News.
Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale told CTV Montreal’s Vanessa Lee that repatriating foreign fighters and their families is not a priority. He added that Canada will not put its diplomatic officers at risk in a “dangerous and dysfunctional” part of the world.

TURKEY – Here is why Turkish televangelist wants all his ‘kittens’ to look the same
A former disciple of Adnan Oktar has said the controversial televangelist
[... telekoranist...??? ]wanted all his surgically-enhanced female followers to have certain facial and bodily features because of his earlier life experiences in front of shanty night clubs in Ankara.“This pervert was raised in Ankara. When he was young, he used to hang out in front of shanty night clubs there. The physical appearance of those night club women had stayed in his mind,” Beril Koncagül told daily Hürriyet on Feb. 10.
Oktar, who is also known abroad by his pen name Harun Yahya, hosted talk show programs on his television channel on which he has discussed Islamic values and sometimes danced with young women he called “kittens” and sang with young men, who he called his “lions.”
The cult leader and dozens of his followers were arrested in August 2018 on over 30 charges including establishing a criminal organization, child sexual abuse, sexual intercourse with minors, kidnapping, violating tax law, and violating the anti-terrorism law.
Koncagül, who was known in the Turkish media as Oktar’s “favorite kitten,” was among his followers who were released on condition after agreeing to cooperate with the prosecution.
After spending more than nine years at Oktar’s luxurious “den” on an Istanbul hill overlooking the Bosphorus, she said the “kittens” were routinely abused and raped.
“I tried to escape five times but he had 60 armed guards, hundreds of cameras and jammers in that villa. It was impossible to run away,” she told Hürriyet.
There were 17 more sex slaves, she added, who were all ordered to serve Oktar half-naked. “He was beating us, cursing at us, abusing us, forcing us into sexual intercourse. We were forced to call him ‘my love’ whatever he does,” Koncagül added.
When asked why all of Oktar’s female followers looked almost identical in appearance, Koncagül explained that their cosmetic surgeries were designed to give them looks in the mind of Oktar.
“He made us look like those women at shanty night clubs he saw in his youth. There were certain surgeons that worked for him. No woman was allowed to decline this cosmetic surgery,” she added.
Everything in the mansion was designed for Oktar’s comfort, Koncagül said. Two topless women would hold the newspaper that Oktar would read or his telephone when he spoke while another one would put his sock on before heating up his shoes with a blow-dryer.
“He was also abusing children. He was defending that sexual intercourse is allowed after anyone is older than seven years old. He was sexually harassing minors while making them wear miniskirts,” she said.
“He has been sexually impotent since 1998 but he remains as a pervert,” the former disciple added. “He thinks that he is greater than all the prophets but the only times that he talked about religion was when he was on TV. We never heard him mention Allah even once at other times.”
Oktar and more than 160 of his followers remain under arrest, pending trial.
On Oct. 4, Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality teams demolished parts of Oktar’s mansion, which had been built without a permit. The mansion was also used as a television set for Oktar’s unusual shows, where he mixed religious sermons with dancing.
In 2006, Oktar wrote the Atlas of Creation, arguing that Darwin’s theory of evolution is at the root of global terrorism. He has written more than 300 books, translated into 73 languages, his TV channel says on its website, although his critics dismissed him a cult leader who used religion as cover for criminal activities.

Twitter CEO: ‘I Don’t Believe That We Can Afford To Take A Neutral Stance Anymore’
Has Twitter ever taken a neutral stance before?
Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said in an interview last week that the company could no longer “afford to take a neutral stance anymore.”
He made this statement after being asked by podcaster Sam Harris why Twitter’s bans and suspensions always seem to “reliably land[s] on one side of the political divide.”
He pointed out that progressive feminist Megan Murphy – who is no friend to conservatives – was banned for tweeting that “Men are not women” and asking, “How are transwomen not men? What is the difference between men and transwomen?” yet unapologetic anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan is still allowed on the platform.

Rep. Tlaib Wrote for Racist/Anti-Semitic Farrakhan Paper
February 11, 2019
Daniel Greenfield
This is important.
It’s far more important than the question of whether Governor Northam wore blackface 34 years ago, but it’s also going to be ignored. Actual hard core racism of the black nationalist variety gets a pass. Rep. Keith Ellison started his political career in the Nation of Islam. Multiple members of the Congressional Black Caucus have met with Farrakhan and pressed his flesh and praised him.
There’s been no House condemnation of them. Nor will there ever be.
Barack Obama even posed with Farrakhan. He has never been asked about it to his face by the same media outlets running the “Trump is a racist” loop 24/7.
So this just makes Rep. Tlaib one of the gang. It shows that she paid her dues in Dem politics.

Rep. Nunes: GOP Lawmakers Looking Through Russiagate Transcripts – Will Make DOJ Referrals
Ranking member of the House Intel Committee, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) said in an interview with The Hill TV’s Buck Sexton that GOP lawmakers are combing through Russiagate transcripts from interviews conducted over the last year and will make referrals to the Justice Department.
“We’re continuing to work with the task force that was set up late last year between the Judiciary Committee and the Oversight Committee that was led by Goodlatte and Gowdy with our recommendations,” Devin Nunes told The Hill TV’s Buck Sexton.
“We will be continuing that task force, except at that the House Intelligence Committee Republicans will be involved,” Nunes continued.
