Daily Links Post graphic

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.

    When once the statistics of the massacred Serbs are compiled and the manner in which they were annihilated known, the civilized world will be thrown into consternation
    and will be unable to believe that such bestialities in the middle of Europe and under the supervision of Germany could have taken place. p. 24
    Although conscious of the fact that there are many sincere and lovable people who are Roman Catholics by accident of birth, it is, nevertheless, true that Romanism as a system has always been relentlessly cruel and that torture and murder have ever been weapons used, not only against heretics, but also against her own adherents, should they show any sign of lapsing.
    It is only when conditions prevailing in a country, through the alertness of Protestants, prevent Rome from carrying out her designs that her methods, for the time being, arc
    changed and she seeks to rule by apparently gentle persuasion. The old proverb says, “the price of liberty is eternal vigilance”. Rome may in adversity act like a lamb, in equality like a fox, in supremacy, she will still act as a tiger. p.5

        If your’s is the indictment of Original Sin that I think it is, then this board would be a better place if you might trundle out a few dozen paragraphs on the topic. As for myself, I’m ready to go long on that specific count.

        Personally, the notion of us blank slates being born in a perpetually flawed state (degraded well beyond all charismatic imperfection) into a life of fearful, eternal atonement just doesn’t correlate with the notion of a wholesome, creative, loving God that I seem to recall.

        • But NorseRadish, without Original Sin, what purpose is there in Christ Crucified? Because if your sins are acquired in this world and then vanish with the truth of accountability and apology – repenting, realizing and releasing through forgiveness – the sins of your fathers will no longer act through you. The same way Jesus faced his Devil and walked away a free man.

  2. Vatican War Crimes | Roman Catholic Priests Ran Half the Nazi Death Camps in Croatia

    During World War II, nearly half of the 22 NAZI CONCENTRATION CAMPS operating in the Nazi allied state of CROATIA were under the command of ROMAN CATHOLIC PRIESTS.
    These priests — with the knowledge of the VATICAN — were responsible for the grisly slaughter of hundreds of thousands of men, women and children. Serbs, Roma, and Jews were specifically targeted for extermination.

    “KILL ALL SERBS. And when you finish come here, to the Church, and I will confess you and free you from sin.” — Father Srecko Peric of the Gorica Monastery

    • “The Ustaše (also called Ustashas or Ustashi) was a Croatian racist, terrorist, and Nazi-like movement. It was engaged in terrorist activities before World War II.[Under the protection of Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany, the Ustaše ruled a part of Yugoslavia, after Yugoslavia was occupied by Italy and Germany. At the end of World War II, the Ustaše were defeated and expelled by the Yugoslav Partisans.”

      “The roots of the Ustaše ideology were in the Croatian nationalism of the nineteenth century. The Ustaše ideological system was chiefly based on the traditional pure Croatian nationalism of Ante Star?evi?.”

      “The ideology of the movement was a blend of fascism, Roman Catholicism and Croatian nationalism.”

      If this ‘Father, Holy Spirit and Son’ take over of ‘soul, mind and body’ were an imminent danger like Islam’s ‘Koran, Allah, and muhammadan;’ then this topic would be reflected by the daily murderous abuses reported in the news.

      As it is, any burning ember is worth noting. For should by neglect, it rise yet again for a superiority of Truth it claims for itself.

      The greater lies are Islam and Communism, for they are fully formed and their hell-camps are in secured nations today.

  3. Stop the Slaughter of Children: An Appeal to all Catholics

    Whoever would harm one of these little ones should have a millstone tied about his neck and be cast into the sea and drowned. – Jesus, in Matthew 18:6

    The standing Vatican policy known as Crimen Sollicitationas is a green light for every child rapist in the Roman Catholic Church. By protecting the rapist and obstructing justice, Crimen is nothing less than a global criminal conspiracy operating under the guise of religion. Whoever associates with or funds such a criminally-complicit religion is guilty of a crime under the Law of Nations and of God. – The International Common Law Court of Justice, from its Summary Conviction of Pope Benedict/Joseph Ratzinger, February 25, 2013

    The epidemic of child abuse and trafficking within the Roman Catholic Church shows no sign of easing. Every dollar you place in the Sunday collection plate allows those crimes to continue. Under Vatican policies, you and your priest are ordered to aid and abet these crimes and protect child abusers in the church, or face excommunication. Your church leaders are expecting all of you to help harm children and commit treason by violating your nation’s child protection laws.

    The law of civilized nations prohibits anyone from being forced to collude in such crime. The Vatican is a convicted criminal association that launders Mafia money, invests in the global arms trade and traffics human beings. Do you really owe your allegiance to such a body? Is not your higher loyalty to God’s law to do justice and protect the innocent?

    The just and legal thing for you to do as a Roman Catholic is to withhold your funds from church coffers. Fill out the Pledge Form on the reverse of this leaflet and leave it in the collection plate. Tell your friends and family to also Say No to church crimes against children.

    PLEDGE OF NON-COOPERATION WITH CRIMINAL CHURCH PRACTICES

    I, ________________________________, acting in faith and in good conscience, do hereby pledge to disassociate myself from the policies and practices of the Roman Catholic Church that foster and protect the harming of children, including the Vatican’s standing policy of CrimenSollicitationas. Until these policies and practices are abolished and those in the Church who harm children are arrested and prosecuted under the laws of our Nation, I will not Fund, tithe or otherwise financially subsidize the Roman Catholic
    Church.

    • The group most persecuted in the KLs by the Nazis were RC priests and they were not just killed but routinely tortured just to hear them recant. The Vatican/Croatian bit above is not unknown but show me the numbers killed then tell me about the Tito revenge on the perpetrators post war. I have no time for the Vatican and the RC church but Croatia WAS a Nazi ally as was Italy and contempt for Serbia the western most outpost of orthodoxy was rampant in both. IMO the air war waged on Serbia and the failure of the west to acknowledge the muslim atrocities in BH and Kosovo gives me great sympathy for the Serbs but ever since I started listening to Serbs and Croats I have heard the same stories. The Ustasha sought freedom from domination like those in Belgium, Ukraine, Bosnia, etc,.many supported Hitler as he promised them independence(SS units Bosnian, Belgium, Ukrainian) and the Ustasha were no different. BUT the long simmering hatred between the Serbs and Croats made this a bitter confrontation. I do not justify what the Croats did with or without Vatican help but let’s worry about the real present enemies: the Left and islam, or do you wish to see the Vatican and Croatia bombed?

    Return of the Sowell Man: The best economist is black, and he’s back in the battle.

    March 11, 2019 Lloyd Billingsley

    “Even the best things come to an end,” wrote Thomas Sowell in a December, 2016, column headlined “Farewell.” At the age of 86, the great economist had decided to stop writing his column and “spend less time following politics and more time on my photography.” Since then, Sowell has been rather quiet, but current political trends have prompted him to re-emerge.

    “Socialism is a wonderful sounding idea,” Sowell recently told Fox Business. “It’s only as a reality that it’s disastrous.” A former Marxist, Sowell began to see the difference between reality and rhetoric. “When you see people starving in Venezuela and fleeing in the neighboring countries and realize that this is a country that once had the world’s largest oil reserves, you realize that that’ve ruined a really good prospect with ideas that sounded good but didn’t turn out well.”

    Those who wonder who this guy is might take a cue from NBA great Charles Barkley, who in 2000 quipped that “the best rapper out there is white and the best golfer is black.” As it happens, the best economist is also black, and his name is Thomas Sowell. He dropped out of high school and served as a photographer in the Marines during the Korean War. He was the first in his family to attend college and earned a BA from Harvard, a master’s from Columbia and a PhD from the University of Chicago.

    The Hoover Institution scholar has probed the world of ideas in books such as Basic Economics, Economic Facts and Fallacies, and Wealth, Poverty and Politics. He is also the author of The Economics and Politics of Race, Ethnic America, Affirmative Action Around the World, and the 1985 Marxism: Philosophy and Economics. Sowell’s conservative economics and criticism of affirmative action have drawn vicious attacks from the left.

    Columnist Carl Rowan compared Sowell to Vidkun Quisling and NAACP general counsel Thomas Atkins called him one of the “house niggers” on the plantation. Lani Guinier, a Clinton nominee for Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, even questioned Sowell’s blackness. The economist, who was raised in Harlem, does not generally respond in kind, but he was justified to say “I don’t need some half-white woman from Martha’s Vineyard telling me about being black.” Sowell also kept on writing thoughtful, well-researched books such as the 2013 Intellectuals and Race, more relevant than ever with leftists smearing all rivals as racists.

    Sowell shows how supposedly “progressive” intellectuals championed eugenics out of fear of the “inferior” races. For progressive sociologist Edward Ross, black Americans were “several million of an inferior race.” Madison Grant, a progressive activist educated at Yale and Columbia, penned The Passing of the Great Race, which Hitler called his “bible.” Author Jack London, a socialist, held that “the inferior races must undergo destruction, or some humane form of economic slavery is inevitable.”
    .
    On the correlation between skin color and intelligence, Sowell quotes a tenth-century Muslim scholar who charged that Europeans grow paler the farther north you go, and that the “farther north the more stupid, gross and brutish they are.”

    In the view of the current “race industry,” whites who outperform blacks are simply unjust beneficiaries of past discrimination. Likewise, Asians who outperform blacks and Hispanics are beneficiaries of “privilege.” Sowell shows how diversity dogma generally ignores discrimination against Asians and Jews, high achievers despite centuries of persecution in many countries.

    At the same time, the intellectuals of the left “pay no price for being wrong, no matter how wrong, or with what catastrophic consequences for millions of other people.” That dynamic was on display in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, where socialist Bernie Sanders chose to celebrate his honeymoon, and the Soviet client states in Eastern Europe and Cuba, an all-white Stalinist dictatorship. The American left championed them all, and they now keep the faith as Venezuela’s socialist regime starves and oppresses the people, who flee by the millions.

    Sowell, who turns 89 this year, knows that socialism is guaranteed to wreck America. He is troubled by the fathomless ignorance of “rising star” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her fellow Democrat socialists. The great economist may be back in the fight, like Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca, but unlike Victor Laszlo, Sowell is not sure we will win this time.

    With willful ignorance, intolerance and bad ideas on the rise, Sowell has “a great fear that, in the long run, we may not make it.” On the other hand, as he said in his 2016 “Farewell” article, “let us hope that we can learn something from the past to make for a better present and future.”

    To that end, everybody should get to know Thomas Sowell, whose books on economics, race and affirmative action, should be part of high-school and college curricula across the nation. If we are going to have a better present and future, as Sowell explained on Fox Business, everybody will have to “test ideas against facts.”

  5. Seven Bombs Detonate in Thailand, Another Seven Defused by Police – Reports (sputniknews, Mar 11, 2019)
    https://sputniknews.com/asia/201903111073112410-thailand-bombs-police/

    “Seven improvised explosive devices (IED) exploded on Saturday and Sunday in the provinces of Satun and Phatthalung in southern Thailand, and another seven IEDs were discovered and defused by the security forces, local media reported.

    The detonations, fortunately, inflicted no casualties but damaged several buildings, including a police station in Satun, Channel 3 broadcaster reported Sunday.

    Among possible perpetrators, the police named separatists, organized criminal groups, and criminals engaged in politics.

    Satun and Phatthalung are situated close to Thailand’s southern-most Narathiwat, Yala and Pattani provinces. They border Malaysia and are majority-Malay and predominantly Muslim, whereas the rest of the state is mostly populated by Buddhists.

    Violence in the region escalated in 2000, and a state of emergency was declared in 2004. Amid the turmoil, several groups of Muslim militants demanded either autonomy for the region or complete secession from Thailand. About 6,500 people have been killed during the ongoing conflict, with the majority of them being civilians.

    Thailand is also expected to hold general elections on March 24 — for the first time since the 2014 military coup.”

    “Spanish activist Helena Maleno says Moroccan authorities have dropped a case against her that sought human trafficking charges for her calls alerting maritime rescue services to the presence of migrants crossing the Mediterranean Sea.

    In 2012, Spanish police investigated what they alleged were possible links between Maleno and human trafficking gangs. A Spanish court later dropped the case. Moroccan justice carried out a parallel investigation until it was closed on Monday.

    Maleno, who lives in Morocco, has made it her cause to inform Spanish and Moroccan rescuers when migrants set out in flimsy boats to make the perilous crossing from African to European shores.

    Maleno said from Tangier the “fact that this case was dropped sets an example for us to continue our work.””

    “The terror Attack in Pulwama (Kashmir), which left 40 Indian soldiers dead spiralled into a serious conflagration between India and Pakistan. Following the attack, India launched an aerial attack and dropped bombs on alleged terror hideouts in Pakistani territory, resulting in retaliation by the Pakistan Air Force.

    New Delhi (Sputnik): Mudasir Ahmed Khan, the terror mastermind of the recent Pulwama suicide bomb attack that killed 40 Indian paramilitary policemen, is believed to have been gunned down by Indian security forces in an operation that lasted into the wee hours of Monday, said news agency PTI. Mudasir Khan belonged to the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) terrorist outfit and also went by the nickname “Mohammed Bhai”.

    Besides the recent terror incident at Pulwama on 14 February in which 40 Indian security forces died, the terrorist had allegedly played a role in attacks on a camp of paramilitary forces in January 2018 killing five and against an army camp in Sunjawan in February 2018, in which six personnel and a civilian were killed…”

    After around an hour of occupying the Basilica, police were called and arrived to remove the protesters and illegal immigrants. The area was cleared by around 5:30 pm but evening mass was cancelled in case the protesters returned.

  11. Nerves fray, tempers flare as Venezuela blackout hits fourth day

    CARACAS, March 10 (Reuters) – Furious Venezuelans lined up to buy water and fuel on Sunday as the country endured a fourth day of a nationwide blackout that has left already-scarce food rotting in shops, homes suffering for lack of water and cell phones without reception.

    Authorities have managed to provide only patchy access to power since the outage began on Thursday in what President Nicolas Maduro called an act of U.S.-backed sabotage, but critics insist it is the result of incompetence and corruption.

    The government on Sunday suspended school and business activities for the following day without providing any information on a likely time frame for resolving the situation, leaving many fretting that it could extend indefinitely.

    The country’s worst-ever power outage comes as Maduro faces a hyperinflationary economic collapse and an unprecedented political crisis. Opposition leader Juan Guaido in January invoked the constitution to assume the presidency after declaring Maduro’s 2018 re-election a fraud.

      Things may be different in survival-level Venezuela, but I suspect that much of this cell phone addiction plague has spread there as well.

      In their monumental hubris, the Titans of Tech have made their gewgaws and gimcracks so insidious appealing that, like some stray kitten, people just can’t help but adore the cute little gold-plated electronic turds they stroke for hours at a time.

      There’s no time to saunter out the back door and spend a few sunny moments gabbing with some local when you can squander hours chatting and messaging to some total stranger about the newest boy band or lacing pattern for your $200 sneakers. All, without leaving the confines of your cardboard shanty.

      Right now, it’s a safe bet that Venezolanos are using the Zillow house-hunting app to find the nearest flowing fire hydrant.

      Those who haven’t lived through the entire cultural transmogrification from shouting rather loudly, to party line, to land line, to five-line (now with call holding and conferencing!), and emerged into this brave new world of sexting dick pics to preschoolers typically cannot fathom the sequined rabbit hole down which modern technology has flushed a huge portion of humanity.

      Infantilization has become the magical, secret ingredient of digital platforms that are specifically designed to be both addictive and distractingly counterproductive. Snazzy fads and the latest engineered crazes flood through this digital sewer pipeline as people slowly starve to death in disease-ridden slums.

  12. Venezuela enters fourth day of blackout as Maduro blames U.S. cyberattack

    CARACAS, March 10 (Reuters) – Venezuelans woke up to a fourth day of an unprecedented nationwide blackout on Sunday, leaving residents concerned about the impacts of the lack of electricity on the South American country’s health, communications and transport systems.

    Socialist President Nicolas Maduro – who is facing a challenge to his rule by the leader of the opposition-led congress, Juan Guaido – has blamed the blackout on an act of “sabotage” by the United States at the Guri hydroelectric dam, but experts say it is the outcome of years of underinvestment.

    “The national electrical system has been subject to multiple cyberattacks,” Maduro wrote on Twitter on Sunday. “However, we are making huge efforts to restore stable and definitive supply in the coming hours.”

    Guaido invoked the constitution to assume an interim presidency in January, arguing that Maduro’s 2018 re-election was fraudulent. He has been recognized as Venezuela’s legitimate leader by the United States and most Western countries.

    In the midst of a second nationwide power outage in Venezuela, the vast majority of the country is engulfed in a massive internet outage. The first electrical blackout, which swept across the nation on Thursday, left Venezuela with only two percent connectivity amid the ongoing presidential crisis. Most of the country has been offline since Thursday with limited or no connectivity being reported across large swaths of the South American nation. The NetBlocks Group, a private internet watchdog organization based in the UK, reported on Saturday that 96 percent of the country was offline:

    These kinds of artificial intelligence programs — available for nearly a decade — are becoming more widespread as news organizations turn to them to produce stories, personalize news delivery and in some cases sift through data to find important news.

    Tobi wrote on vote results for each of Switzerland’s 2,222 municipalities, in both French and German, for the country’s largest media group, according to a paper presented last month at the Computation + Journalism conference in Miami.

    A similar automated program called Heliograf has enabled The Washington Post daily to cover some 500 election races, along with local sports and business, since 2014.

    “We’ve seen a greater acceptance of the potential for artificial intelligence, or robo-journalism, in newsrooms around the world,” said Damian Radcliffe, a University of Oregon professor who follows consumer trends and business models for journalism.

    Democrats and the media will face a “reckoning” if special counsel Robert Mueller finds no evidence of collusion involving the Trump campaign, ABC News’ Terry Moran argued in a panel discussion Sunday.

    “How big a deal is it if they don’t find collusion for the president?” ABC “This Week” host Martha Raddatz asked Moran.

    Dutch researcher finds cache of information including phone numbers, addresses and ages

    An open database in China contains the personal information of more than 1.8 million women, including their phone numbers, addresses, and something called “BreedReady” status, according to a researcher.

    Victor Gevers, a Dutch internet expert from the non-profit group GDI.Foundation, found the insecure data cache while searching for open databases in China. He posted a series of screenshots of it over the weekend.

  17. Illegal border crossings from Canada quietly rising, data shows
    More than 960 people crossed into the U.S. illegally from the northern border with Canada last year, according to data released from CBP.

    DERBY LINE, Vermont — More than 960 people crossed into the U.S. illegally from the northern border with Canada last year, according to data released from Customs and Border Protection.

    While that number is a tiny fraction compared to the migration across the border with Mexico, it represented a 91 percent increase from the prior fiscal year, the data showed.

    The Trump administration’s rhetoric on border security has largely homed in on the southern border, which has seen an influx of thousands of families with children from Central America seeking asylum in the United States.

    But officials have also seen an increase of illegal crossings on the northern border in the last fiscal year, according to the data. In fiscal year 2017, immigration agents apprehended 504 people crossing illegally from Canada, compared to 963 in fiscal year 2018, the border patrol data showed.

  18. Video makes case: Radical movement running Ocasio-Cortez wants to take over Dem Party
    By J.E. Dyer March 11, 2019

    A video published at YouTube on Friday 8 March is racking up the views. As of this writing on Sunday night it has more than 588,000. And it’s not a short video, by any means. It runs just over 23 minutes. It’s a bit of an investment. (The video is below.)

    But people are watching it because it stitches together the information that has been coming out on the 2018 election cycle and the ascendancy of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and makes a case that the mainstream media won’t touch. The video’s case is that Ocasio-Cortez got picked to run in New York in a glorified casting call, and that she’s not an issues-oriented politician at all; she’s a personality (the narrator, Chris, who goes by “Mr. Reagan,” calls her an “actress”) now being steered by the radical organization that got her elected.

    The organization, the Justice Democrats (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_Democrats), has the goal of transforming the Democratic Party by fielding slates of candidates cycle after cycle until it has the leverage and momentum to effect a hostile takeover.

    https://libertyunyielding.com/2019/03/11/video-makes-case-radical-movement-running-ocasio-cortez-wants-to-take-over-dem-party/

    • Watch both videos the time will be well spent, they prove that AOC is a puppet to her handlers in the Justice Democrats. This is not unusual in the Democrat Party but it is unusual for them to gain so much power so fast.

      The groups mentioned all are fighting to take control of the Democrat Party to drive it to their vision of what the left is suppose to be. The left does this all the time when they are attempting to take over nations, and when they succeed the group that is the worst will end up taking control because they are willing to use massive violence against their own side to seize control.

      It is very interesting that her Campaign Manage (I can’t pronounce his name much less spell it) is a follower of the violent version of Gandhi, this man wanted to cre4ate a mixture of Communism and the German version of Fascism to run India.

      Yes the Democrats have been using ideas from both leftist groups in their policies for decades but the fact that this man is a follower of the India Indian version of the Murderous Che is very interesting. We need to be worried about AOC and her puppet masters, they are going to be trying to take over the US By Any Means Necessary for many decades to come.

        • Her campaign manager: Saikat Chakrabarti.

          We suspected as much.
          Like that gun-grabbing pos Hogg, a front for much more dangerous forces. Including the Shadow White House that gave us the Manchurian Prez.

      Do not underestimate them… They have long and comprehensive experience in overthrowing civilisations and countries…56 and counting…

  21. BREITBART – Fox News Strongly Condemns Jeanine Pirro’s Remarks About Ilhan Omar’s Hijab

    The Fox News Channel on Sunday condemned host Jeanine Pirro’s remarks on Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) use of a hijab and said the issue has been dealt with directly.
    Pirro is under fire after appearing to suggest on her Saturday program — Justice with Judge Jeanine — that Omar, whose repeated antisemitic remarks prompted the House to pass an anti-hate resolution last week, wears a hijab in defiance of the Constitution.

    “Think about this: She’s not getting this anti-Israel sentiment doctrine from the Democrat Party. So if it’s not rooted in the party, where is she getting it from?” Pirro said in her opening segment.

    “Think about it. Omar wears a hijab, which according to the Quran 33:59, tells women to cover so they won’t get molested. Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?”

    In a statement Sunday, Fox News denounced Pirro’s remarks, saying: “We strongly condemn Jeanine Pirro’s comments about Rep. Ilhan Omar. They do not reflect those of the network and we have addressed the matter with her directly.

    The network also released a statement from Pirro, who said her intent was not to suggests Muslims could not be loyal to the United States. “I’ve seen a lot of comments about my opening statement from Saturday night’s show and I did not call Rep. Omar un-American. My intention was to ask a question and start a debate, but of course because one is Muslim does not mean you don’t support the Constitution,” Pirro said. “I invite Rep. Omar to come on my show any time to discuss all of the important issues facing America today.”

    A Fox News online producer, Hufsa Kamal, criticized Pirro’s remarks on social media, writing: “@JudgeJeanine can you stop spreading this false narrative that somehow Muslims hate America or women who wear a hijab aren’t American enough? You have Muslims working at the same network you do, including myself. K thx.”

    Reporter Yashar Ali said Kamal will not face repercussions for speaking out against Pirro, batting away speculation that she would be fired as “lunacy.”

      • The Islamic robes men and women wear is defacto, a uniform of a soldier or adherent of Islamic law and belief. It is no different than seeing someone in a Nazi uniform, except the Nazis were less concerned about Jews, at least based on the available literature, than Islam is.

        If a person were to walk down the street in a Nazi uniform and be attacked, I believe the judge would show a lot of leniency to the attacker.

        Just try and give even 1% appropriate dirty look to someone flagging their Islamic beliefs all over the place. See what happens to you.

        Sooner or later someone in court has to have the raw balls to try the truth out. It wont work but it will advance the cause of the reinstitution of reality.

    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/turkey-protests-belgian-court-ruling-decision-pkk-61605377

    “Turkey has summoned the Belgian ambassador in Ankara to protest a Brussels appeals court decision that said a Kurdish rebel group cannot be considered to be a terrorist organization.

    A Turkish Foreign Ministry official said Monday that Turkey “conveyed its unease” over the decision to Ambassador Michel Malherbe.

    The decision relates to a case under which Belgian federal prosecutors were seeking to try around 30 suspected member of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, who allegedly recruited young Kurds in Belgium and elsewhere in Europe, and then took them to combat training camps.

    A Brussels appeal court however, ruled Friday that “insufficient elements were provided to conclude that the PKK is guilty of terrorist offenses.”

    The PKK is considered a terror organization by Turkey, the United States and the EU.”

    “Egypt says three troops and 46 suspected Islamic militants have been killed in recent days in the northern and central Sinai Peninsula.

    There were no details on the circumstances that led to the casualties in Sinai.

    The military also said in its statement on Monday that Egyptian forces destroyed 15 hideouts, and dismantled 204 explosive devices. Troops also found weapons caches, including explosives, in Sinai, the Western Desert and southern Egypt.

    Wilders, who is known for his strident anti-Islam rhetoric, lives under round-the-clock protection following years of death threats.

    Wilders complimented law enforcement authorities for their alertness, saying they “prevented a lot of misery.”

    Though the New York Times on Thursday reported that former Vice President Joe Biden is reportedly “95 percent committed to running for president,” Biden is hesitating entering the race because he is reportedly “uneasy” about potential attacks on his son Hunter, who was a subject of Breitbart News Editor-at-Large Peter Schweizer’s blockbuster book, Secret Empires, which highlighted the “new corruption” associated with the Bidens.

    In Secret Empires: How the American Political Class Hides Corruption and Enriches Family and Friends, Schweizer revealed that in 2013 “Hunter Biden’s firm signed a billion-dollar deal with a subsidiary of the Chinese government’s Bank of China just 10 days after Joe and Hunter Biden flew to China aboard Air Force Two.”

    Schweizer also detailed how Biden’s son Hunter sits on the board of Bohai Harvest RST (BHR), which invested in a Chinese company that was indicted for engaging in a “nuclear power conspiracy against the United States.”

  26. Algerian president Abdelaziz Bouteflika drops bid for fifth term (bbc, Mar 11, 2019)
    https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-47531917

    “Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika has postponed the 18 April presidential elections and said he will not seek a fifth term in office.

    President Bouteflika’s candidacy had provoked mass protests across Algeria over the past few weeks.

    He has led Algeria for 20 years but has been rarely seen in public since he suffered a stroke in 2013.

    No new date for the election was set. Mr Bouteflika, 82, said a cabinet reshuffle would take place soon.

    Algeria’s Prime Minister Ahmed Ouyahia announced his resignation and was replaced by Interior Minister Noureddine Bedoui, the official APS news agency reported.

    Mr Bedoui has been tasked with forming a new government, according to APS.

    What did Bouteflika say?
    “There will be no fifth term,” Mr Bouteflika said in a statement. “There was never any question of it for me. Given my state of health and age, my last duty towards the Algerian people was always contributing to the foundation of a new Republic.”

    He had pledged last week that he would step down early if re-elected – but the guarantee failed to placate the thousands of demonstrators.

    Algeria had been hit by strikes by teachers and students, as well as shops closing and train services being suspended as thousands took to the streets.

    What changed on Monday?
    Pressure mounted on Mr Bouteflika to withdraw when more than 1,000 judges said on Monday they would refuse to oversee the planned general election were he a candidate.

    Then the military’s chief of staff, Lt Gen Gaed Salah, said the military and the people had a united vision of the future – the strongest indication so far that the armed forces were sympathetic to the protests.

    Top clerics had already criticised pressure on them to issue pro-government sermons. “Leave us to do our job, don’t interfere,” cleric Imam Djamel Ghoul, leader of an independent group of clerics, told journalists.

    Was Bouteflika’s health a factor?
    The president’s announcement came a day after he returned home after a two-week stay in a Swiss hospital, where he has been for treatment since suffering a stroke in 2013.

    He has over the years since his stroke become a virtual recluse. His last public address was in 2014, shortly after winning the previous general election.

    Many Algerians were concerned about his ailing health, and worried that his death in office during a fifth term might cause dangerous political instability.”

    Scientists Say They Can Recreate Living Dinosaurs Within the Next 5 Years
    Next Article

    on’t we already know how this movie’s going to end?

    In a potentially terrifying case of life imitating art, the renowned paleontologist who served as the inspiration for Jurassic Park protagonist Dr. Alan Grant is spearheading genetic research that could engineer dinosaurs back into existence within the next five to 10 years, he says.

    While Dr. Jack Horner, who has consulted on all four Jurassic films, initially believed the key to recreating the prehistoric creatures lied in working with ancient DNA strands, further study about DNA degradation over time has since ruled out that possibility.

    Instead, a group of scientists at Harvard and Yale have turned their eye to — wait for it — the modern-day chicken. “Of course, birds are dinosaurs,” Horner told People magazine. “So we just need to fix them so they look a little more like a dinosaur.”

  32. Illinois Democrat Pushes Ban on ‘2nd Amendment Sanctuary’ Declarations

    Illinois State Rep. Terra Costa Howard (D) is pushing legislation to make it illegal for counties to declare “Second Amendment Sanctuary” status.

    Her bill comes as counties in Colorado, Illinois, and New Mexico reject state-level Democrats’ push to place more and more gun control on the back of law-abiding citizens. On March 10 Breitbart News reported that 25 of New Mexico’s 33 counties have declared “Second Amendment Sanctuary” status to show they will not enforce their Democrat Governor’s latest gun control law.

    In Illinois, Rep. Howard wants to create law prohibiting such anti-gun control declarations.

    • Sargon is right, but only to a point. At this time it is vital to draw a clear distinction between the ancestral Silicon Valley made of silicon and the “New Silicon Valley” made out of ephemeral bits and bytes (i.e., IT – Information Technology).

      THERE IS A UNIVERSE OF DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO.

      Facecrook, Goeble, Instaclam, and Shitter did not invent computing, nor did anything except their intense commercial demand for more processing power do much of £ü¢kåll to advance solid state technology. In the trade, programming is known as, “pushing around bits”, and for good reason.

      Optimizing a microprocessor’s nanometer scale chip-level architecture requires skills that make all but the very highest reaches of hardware and software integration (e.g., Apple Computer’s fusion of MPU and OS) look like Lego or Tinkertoys.

      Even worse is how there’s a damn good chance that most of Silicon Valley’s real founders would like nothing more than to take this upstart Romper Room full of ungrateful sneering little PoMo shits and whale the living snot out of them for besmirching one of America’s most glorious technological resources.

      Tragically, so few of the original semiconductor and hardware geniuses are either still around or particularly well-versed in the counterjihad to where even their more credible (and intellectually accessible) voices might rally Silicon Valley’s wiser heads.

      The small number of residual innovators operating in the realm of truly disruptive technologies are agonizingly few and far between. If anything, the sheer lack of vociferous protest against IT’s ridiculous Leftist cant is stark testament to how the once-premier resonator of this world’s most brilliant minds has metastasized into an echo chamber ahowl with hair trigger snowflakes riding rainbow farting unicorns.

      PS: At only eight minutes, this is a very worthwhile peek into the seamy side of being this world’s self-appointed moral arbiters.

      NR: I will say how disappointing it was that he didn’t man up and, somewhere during the clip’s final twenty seconds, venture to wedge in a last and final “£ü¢k”. What a complete and total waste of precious airtime.

      To this chap’s immense credit, he (in his overly Left-leaning Centrist way) does save the Special Relationship for last. Were I only a schadenfreude addict (wait a minute … I AM a schadenfreude addict!) the gratification of seeing nearly every other English-speaking nation on earth grudgingly admit that Trump was £ü¢kïñg right, all £ü¢kïñg along, almost gives me the £ü¢kïñg vapors.

  34. Husband of Iranian human rights lawyer says she is sentenced to 38 years, 148 lashes (memo, Mar 11, 2019)

    “Nasrin Sotoudeh, an internationally renowned human rights lawyer jailed in Iran, was handed a new sentence on Monday which her husband said was 38 years in prison and 148 lashes, says Reuters.

    Sotoudeh, who has represented opposition activists including women prosecuted for removing their mandatory headscarf, was arrested in June and charged with spying, spreading propaganda and insulting Iran’s supreme leader, her lawyer said.

    She was jailed in 2010 for spreading propaganda and conspiring to harm state security – charges she denied – and was released after serving half her six-year term. The European Parliament awarded her the Sakharov human rights prize.

    A judge at a revolutionary court in Tehran, Mohammad Moqiseh, said on Monday Sotoudeh had been sentenced to five years for assembling against national security and two years for insulting Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported.

    Sotoudeh’s husband, Reza Khandan, wrote on Facebook that the sentence was decades in jail and 148 lashes, unusually harsh even for Iran which cracks down hard on dissent and regularly imposes death sentences for some crimes.

    The news comes days after Iran appointed a new head of the judiciary – Ebrahim Raisi, a hardline cleric who is a protégé of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The appointment is seen as weakening the political influence of President Hassan Rouhani, a relative moderate.

    Iran, often accused of human rights abuse, said on Monday it had allowed UN Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights Kate Gilmore to visit last week at the head of a “technical mission”.

    The visit, confirmed by a UN official, appeared to be the first in many years by UN human rights investigators who have been denied access by the government.

    The UN investigator on human rights in Iran, Javaid Rehman, raised Sotoudeh’s case at the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva on Monday, saying that last week she “was reportedly convicted of charges relating to her work and could face a lengthy prison sentence.”

    “Worrying patterns of intimidation, arrest, prosecution, and ill-treatment of human rights defenders, lawyers, and labour rights activists signal an increasingly severe state response,” Rehman said.”

      Let’s do some cocktail napkin math. Ermmm … 148 lashes, over 38 years … wait a minute! This must be a case of lenient sentencing for a first-time offender, or something like that. Damn those bleeding-heart activist judges!

      Why, that’s barely four lashes per year. I can just hear the dungeon master saying to himself, “Whoa! It’s the spring equinox? Time for a lash! … Hey! Look at that, will you? It’s the summer solstice already. Time for another lash!”

      At least she’ll be easy to schedule during Ramadan or the haj.
