1. Sam Harris on Israel and Gaza
In this video, Harris makes a point that isn’t made often enough. It was also made to me by an analyst I know about Russia and Ukraine. In that example I was told to think of the war in terms of what Russia was doing as opposed to what it was capable of doing. In this example, Harris explains that Israel was capable of a genocide of the people in Gaza for decades and clearly has not done so then or now. He omits a supporting detail, that the population of Gaza has risen rather quickly for a place with as many complaints as they have, suggesting as genocides go, the whole Western World could use one like that about now.
2. You may have seen the story yesterday about an Ottawa “youth” who was arrested and in court for a plot to attack a Jewish community centre and a Jewish community School. And now there is this:
Third Calgary youth arrested in ongoing RCMP terrorism investigation
The RCMP, with support from the Calgary Police Service (CPS), arrested a 16-year-old Calgary youth for terrorism-related offences.
The Wednesday bust followed the arrests of a 20-year-old Calgary man and other two youths, as part of an ongoing investigation, according to a Friday press release.
The RCMP said the youth was released on a recognizance with a number of conditions pending the outcome of a terrorism peace bond application. The youth is scheduled to appear in Calgary Provincial Court on January 5.
Because of the Youth Criminal Justice Act, no further information can be released about him. As the criminal investigation is ongoing and before the courts, the RCMP said it would not be making any further comments at this time.

It is worth the time to find out what crimes committed by juveniles in Canada were of such a nature that the judge felt that they should be tried as adults, and the names and so on where released. Here is one example. What appears to be a crime of passion. Teenager stabs his love interest to death.

Thank you all for checking out our site.
Frankly, I think this is the only way to deal with these universities. The facts of the place needs to catch up with the vestigial reputation of the place.
And some truth in the UK leads to exactly the wrong arrest

Oh ‘fer cry-yi-yi.
Genociding and enslaving is a muslim virtue. It’s a commandment from their god.
Clear language, written down and shouted from the roof tops for 1400 years.
Lets quit lying to our selves. It is every single person who calls them selves muslim.
Murder, rape, rapine, slavery and genocide are an article of faith for islam.
If a muslim wakes up, and finds it repugnant, they leave islam with a price on their heads.
The muslim fluffers are even worse. If there was ever an argument to be made for gassing a group, muslim fluffers are it. They are even more murderous than muslims, and even, fortunately, more inept than muslims.
We know what the only remediation can possibly be.
Us or them. No accommodation. No surrender, no quarter.
pretty weird you don’t have the top COVID story and it is about canada:

On this website, Vlad Tepes Blog, back in November 2020 (I think), we posted Canada’s Call for Tender re Covid hotel lodgings. It was followed with Call for Tender of 66,000 teargas munitions for provincial distribution.
We also knew about, and refused, the nasal Covid tests because they were highly unreliable as the number of lab spins should have been set at 35 max, 30 being ideal for accuracy. Ontario was 45, and Quebec was 40. Others, I don’t know.
4. So Pascal Najadi thinks that Trump is the President. I don’t think so.
If that were true than this is Trump’s second term in office and he would not be able to run in 2024 because of the two term limit.
But, if Trump were the President than this would not be happening now.

Removing the Confederate Memorial From Arlington Cemetery: What Would Lincoln and Grant Think?
by Allan Brownfield – January 18, 2023
An independent commission is recommending dismantling the Confederate Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery. But before hastily removing this important piece of American history, it would be useful to review its origins, which were, many forget, a part of the strenuous effort after the Civil War to reconcile North and South and reunite the country.
That reconciliation effort was led by Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant, and we should ask ourselves what they would think of removing a memorial that represents the effort.
The statue, unveiled in 1914, features a bronze woman crowned with olive leaves standing on a 32-foot pedestal. It was designed to represent the American South. The woman holds a laurel wreath, a plow stock, and a pruning hook with a biblical inscription at her feet that says, “They have beat their swords into plough-shares and their spears into pruning hooks.”
The pedestal features 14 shields with the coats of arms of the 13 Confederate states and Maryland, which did not secede and join the Confederacy.
The memorial was designed by noted American sculptor Moses Jacob Ezekiel, a Confederate veteran and the first Jewish graduate of the Virginia Military Institute. Ezekiel was buried at the base of his creation in 1921. Three other Confederate soldiers lie next to him: Lt. Harry C. Marmaduke of the Confederate Navy; Capt. John M. Hickey of the Second Missouri Infantry; and Brig. Gen. Marcus J. Wright, who commanded brigades at the battles of Shiloh and Chickamauga.
Before proceeding with removing the statue, a brief look at history is instructive.
On Dec. 8, 1863, Lincoln offered his conciliatory plan for the reconciliation of the United States with his proclamation of amnesty and reconstruction. The proclamation addressed three major areas of concern.
First, it allowed for a full pardon for and restoration of property to all engaged in the rebellion, with the exception of the highest Confederate officials and military leaders.
Second, it allowed for a new state government in the Confederate states when 10% of the eligible voters had taken an oath of allegiance to the United States.
Third, the Southern states admitted in this fashion were encouraged to enact plans to deal with the issue of integrating the formerly enslaved people into society so long as their freedom was not compromised.
The terms of the plan were easy for most Southerners to accept. Lincoln’s plan was charitable considering the costliness of the war. His goal was genuine reconciliation between North and South.
After the Civil War, then-Gen. Grant tried to foster a peaceful reconciliation as well. He supported pardons for former Confederate leaders while also attempting to protect the civil rights of freed slaves. After the South’s surrender at Appomattox, Grant demanded that former Confederate officers be treated fairly—he sought to maintain the peace and restore economic prosperity.
Likewise, Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee preached submission to Union authority and promoted political harmony and reconciliation. People forget that when he surrendered at Appomattox, Lee was violating a direct order from Confederate President Jefferson Davis to fight on. Lee told Davis, “It’s over,” setting a precedent of the necessity only to follow orders that are legitimate.
Lee went on to become president of Washington College (now Washington and Lee University) to prepare the next generation of Southern men to become useful citizens.
On Dec. 14, 1898, four days after the Spanish-American War ended, President William McKinley kicked off his “Peace Jubilee” nationwide tour with a speech in Atlanta in which he proclaimed, “In the spirit of fraternity, we should share with you in the care of the graves of the Confederate soldiers … Sectional feelings no longer holds back the love we feel for each other. The old flag again waves over us in peace with new glories.”
By 1902, 262 Confederate bodies were interred in a specially designated section, Section 16. The cemetery added more Confederate graves over the years, eventually totaling over 400.
On June 7, 1903, the first Confederate Memorial Day ceremonies were held in Arlington’s Confederate section. President Theodore Roosevelt sent a floral arrangement, beginning a tradition continued by nearly every U.S. president. In 2009, President Barrack Obama modified the tradition, sending two wreaths—one to the Confederate Memorial, the other to Washington, D.C.’s African American Civil War Memorial, in honor of U.S. black troops.
In 1906, with President William Howard Taft’s approval, the United Daughters of the Confederacy began raising funds to erect a memorial in the Confederate section of the cemetery.
The sculptor, Ezekiel, spent 40 years living and working in Europe after the Civil War, most of it in Rome. He welcomed visiting Americans into his studio in the Baths of Diocletian, including Roosevelt and Grant. It was Grant’s hope to achieve a genuine reconciliation between North and South, and his meeting with Ezekiel was part of this effort.
At Ezekiel’s funeral at Arlington National Cemetery, President Warren G. Harding lauded him as “a great Virginian, a great artist, a great American and a great citizen of world fame.”
Ezekiel’s sculptures can be found throughout the country. His work celebrating “Religious Liberty” is in front of the National Museum of American Jewish History in Philadelphia. He executed three likenesses of Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Virginia Declaration of Religious Freedom, a document for which Ezekiel was particularly grateful.
Removing the Confederate Memorial from Arlington National Cemetery would probably sadden Lincoln and Grant, who worked so hard for reconciliation after the Civil War.
The desire to remove such a monument is an example of the excess of political correctness of our day and, more than this, represents what Quaker theologian Elton Trueblood called “the sin of contemporaneity,” which is holding our ancestors wanting for not sharing the views we have come to at the present time.
The Confederate Memorial is a part of our history, and the Pentagon would do well to reconsider what appears to be a hasty and narrow political decision.
If it doesn’t, will the next step be digging up and removing the remains of the Confederate dead?
Lincoln and Grant would certainly not approve.
