WHO Vs. Who and more: Links 1, May 18, 2020

1. Interesting Twitter thread on Trudeau’s policy of printing money and destroying wealth. It will end badly after a very expensive and short party.

2. Roger Daltrey: ‘Go f*** yourselves!’ The Who star hits out over being told to ‘stay in’

(Well. We have the WHO and the Who that have opposite opinions on how to handle this thing. I tend to go with the Who on this one. Even if I don’t understand most of their music.)

Roger Daltrey, 76, has said he is proud of the British public for their resilience in the face of the coronavirus pandemic. The Who frontman admitted he would “clap all day long” for the nation’s healthcare workers and frontline staff, but blamed experts for creating confusion over the lockdown.

 

Despite being in a high-risk age group, the English rocker said he would not be told to stay in by anyone.

The musician commented: “I live in the countryside so it’s a lot easier, I cannot imagine what it must be like stuck in London in a flat with a couple of kids.

 

“I’m not moaning about anything but equally as a 76-year-old, I’m not going to be told by anybody to stay in.”

“Go f*** yourselves. We can’t wrap ourselves in cotton wool,” he added.

 

The songwriter went on to say that it was scientists rather than the Government who were causing confusion for the general public amid the COVID-19 outbreak.

 

Roger said: “For every academic that’s telling us one thing on the science, there’s any equally academic scientist on the other side of the fence saying: ‘No, you’re wrong and this what we should do.’

3. Research Rings Alarm on Iran, Hezbollah ‘Sleeper Networks’ in West

(I wonder what the first clue was. Could it have been the many tonnes of high explosives that was discovered to be in London and another Western city that was under the control of Hizb’allah operators?)

There is growing number of indicators and warning signs that Iran and Hezbollah have sought to create a sleeper network in the US and Western Europe, which could be activated to launch attacks as part of a retaliatory attack.

 

Those indicators were revealed in a research published by Ioan Pop and Mitchell Silber in an article entitled “Iran and Hezbollah’s Pre-Operational Modus Operandi in the West.”

 

The two writers said tensions between the United States and Iran/Hezbollah spiked in January 2020 when US strikes killed Qassem Soleimani the leader of Iran’s IRGC-Quds Force.

 

“There is mounting evidence that in recent years, Iran and Hezbollah have sought to create a sleeper network in the US and Western Europe, which could be activated to launch attacks as part of a retaliatory attack,” the article said.

 

Their paper assesses Iran and Hezbollah pre-operational modus operandi in the West derived from court documents and open source reporting of the recent arrest of Hezbollah and Iranian agents in the US and abroad. It also sheds light on the recruitment, training, and placement of these agents and the intricacies of their past operations.

4. France: Police disrupt demo decrying “deprivation” of civil liberties in Saint-Nazaire

An anti-government protest was disrupted by law enforcement in Saint-Nazaire on Saturday.

Several police officers stormed the protesters, who can be seen wearing masks, who were gathering at Commando square and proceeded to hand out fines and detain demonstrators.

Law enforcement say the protesters were breaching measures related to crowd gatherings imposed by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, reports say.

“There was a person who was alone and holding a banner. That person was taken into custody under the pretense of going out to demonstrate and expressing a political opinion. Where’s the sanitary risk in all of this?” one protest said.

According to a web page set up calling for the protest, the demonstration was put together by people from various groups, including Yellow vests, students, and environmentalists; among others. The demonstration was held to decry the actions of French President Emmanuel Macron’s government and the “deprivation” of civil liberties amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.  Those who organised the demonstration called on those planning on attending to “come masked and keep our distance.”

5. The Muslim Brotherhood Operative on Facebook’s Content Oversight Board (Part 1)

When it comes to Islam, Facebook seems unable to get things right. It has made life more difficult for sober islamocritics such as Robert Spencer, censoring their content, while favoring those who attempt to deflect such criticism with charges of “racism” and “Islamophobia.”

 

Recently Mark Zuckerberg decided it would be a good thing – Diversity! Inclusivity! — to appoint the Yemeni journalist and political activist Tawakkol Karman to the Content Oversight Board of Facebook, a position where she will be well-placed to protect Islam and Muslims from their critics. It is not only those islamocritics who are up in arms at Karman’s appointment, but a great many Muslims are horrified as well. For Tawakkol Karman is not only a Muslim, but a fervent admirer of the Muslim Brotherhood.

6. French police clash with youths in suburb over man’s death

(This is now a common thing in Europe. A muslim dies as a result of reckless behaviour and criminal activity, police chase him, muslim crashes or something and dies. The muslim population start mass riots blaming the police. Because any attempt to make muslims obey the law is racist or whatever.)

PARIS — Police officers in a Paris suburb have clashed with youths protesting the death of a man in a motorcycle crash, authorities said Monday.

 

Small fires were set in Argenteuil on Sunday night in anger over the death of the 18 year-old man, police said. He was killed in a crash on Saturday evening in which he wasn’t wearing a motorcycle helmet.

 

French media reported that friends of the victim blame a nearby police car for contributing to the crash, but there was no elaboration on the cause.

 

Police didn’t immediately provide further details, saying an investigation was ongoing. But police said the teenager’s death caused simmering tensions over the two-month coronavirus lockdown to boil over.

 

Police fired tear gas to disperse the protests in which some trash bins were set alight. Some riot police entered a public housing estate to scatter a small demonstration.

7. Cancel Culture: Virtual LGBT Pride Event Shut Down Because Organiser Supported Brexit

(This is an example we have been waiting for. Its hard to even know why there are Gay rights parades, they already have far more rights and power than people with normal sexual appetites. Ones that lead to reproduction I mean. But now we see that its clearly a front for Marxism. If they cancel a gay parade because the organizer believes in an England, or a self determining Great Britain, then we see what we always knew. All this stuff, J-Street, Black Lives Matter, Gay Pride and every possible sexual deviancy real or imagined that can be ginned up and foisted on the public as grievance mongers, are all false fronts for Marxism. With the left, the point is NEVER the point. The Revolution is ALWAYS the point. This cancellation is not a victory for us, other than it shows what its really about. Had it taken place it would have reduced the real purpose of the massive divide and conquer dialectic negation that has been taking place for decades now. But its important that we understand that process if we wish it to not be effective.)

In the latest instance of left-wing cancel culture, a virtual LGBT pride parade in the UK has been shut down after activists discovered that the organiser was a supporter of Brexit and had liked tweets from Nigel Farage and free speech campaigner Toby Young.

 

The virtual event, which was expected to include the likes of singer Danii Minogue and composer Andrew Lloyd Webber, was organised in the wake of the cancellation of hundreds of pride events over concerns about the Chinese coronavirus.

(Notice that it was cancelled because the organizer liked tweets from someone who supports Free speech. Nuf said)

8. Could wearing a mask for long periods be detrimental to health?

Could the requirement to wear masks in public to prevent the spread of the coronavirus be doing more harm than good to people’s health?

A retired neurosurgeon believes so, pointing toward studies that found that wearing masks for prolonged periods can cause serious side effects.

In an article published by Technocracy News, Dr. Russell Blaylock wrote that the side effects from prolonged wearing of a face mask “can vary from headaches, to increased airway resistance, carbon dioxide accumulation, to hypoxia, all the way to serious life-threatening complications.”

The side effects differ between cloth or paper surgical masks and N95 respirator masks because the N95, being a more effective filter, also limits breathing to a greater degree, and is therefore more commonly associated with headaches, Blaylock reported.

9. Just a quick reminder or what actual real racism looks like.

(The problem is, that is exactly the same kind of ‘reporting’ Canada gets from the CBC etc. and CNN and many more. News is now Marxist propaganda. The point, is never the point.)

10. Gunfight at Sea as Pirates Open Fire on British Tanker Near Somalia

CAIRO (AP) – Pirates attacked a UK-flagged chemical tanker off the coast of Yemen in the Gulf of Aden, Stolt Tankers said.

 

The vessel’s armed guards exchanged fire with two skiffs manned by six armed pirates, who approached the vessel Stolt Apal at high speed, the company said in a statement.

The vessel’s guards disabled one skiff and ended the pursuit. There were no injuries on board, and only the vessel’s bridge area sustained minor damage from bullets. […]

 

This was the ninth reported attack in the Gulf of Aden this year, according to maritime security firm Dryad Global.

  1. 6 – The Moslems have achieved their state within a state and are now working to expand out into new areas. If the French want to stop this they must understand that at this late date their only recourse is to declare the Islamic Areas to be in revolt and send in the Army to reconquer those regions of France. The Major problem with this approach is that the French has spent so much time recruiting Islamic Soldiers and Police to the point no one knows who they can trust and who is a danger.

    • Lara Logan does an excellent job of describing what it’s like for the soldiers in Afghanistan trying to work alongside their Afghan “allies” only to find themselves betrayed over and over again, often by “friends” and “comrades” who they’ve been working with for years. The Generals were very frustrated by it…

      If you read the Quran there is no circumstance under which it’s OK for a Muslim to side with an Infidel against a fellow believer so the idea of recruiting Muslim soldiers and police is ludicrous. They’re not allowed to fight against Muslims and side with blasphemers – period!

      • The same thing happened on a lesser scale in Nam, you didn’t know which of the Viets to trust. At times I wonder how many of the reports of treachery by the Viets were Communist lies meant to spread distrust between the US and our allies.

        In Afghan we know the reports are true.

  2. Every day I scour the internet looking for word on the drug “hydroxychloroquine” and every day Google assures me that the stuff is perfectly worthless and that I am a mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging, trailer-park-living, hillbilly piece of uneducated racist white trash for even considering the evil stuff. And every day thousands of lives are saved in Turkey where they use hydroxychloroquine like mouthwash and their numbers are among the best in the world, but Google doesn’t want to talk about it.

    Folks, Google is determined that the world not accept hydroxychloroquine and they feel that way because they think it might help Trump get elected if they admit it. They are, most definitely, interfering like hell in the US election. In fact, I can’t think of a bigger case of election fraud than this. Google is deciding who the next president is going to be and they have the power to do it and nobody is doing anything about it. Help! This is a real emergency…!!!

  3. 1- Money for nothin’. We don’t get there from here. Never did.

    There is a big, big difference between any country that prints money with abandon…and the United States.

    The U.S. currently owns the world reserve currency, which creates an incredibly deep demand for U.S. dollars worldwide. The value of the Canadian dollar, along with the living standard of Canadians, will fall dramatically under this accelerated socialism.

    • USD reserve currency won’t last forever, but it’s the most potent weapon in the world. It infuriates our enemies, makes our friends jealous. But without it, there’d be a lot more blood spilled everywhere.
