Reader’s Links for June 18th, 2024

Posted on by

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 must use it while we can.

For those interested, please check out https://vladtepesblog.substack.com/ as an another avenue of expression.

  1. A United Nations report on northern Gaza failed to confirm earlier warnings of famine in the area, though it said that people were still suffering as a result of the ongoing war — which Hamas launched from Gaza on Israel on October 7.

    In May, the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET), which was founded and is funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), run by Israel critic Samantha Power, reported that famine was possible in northern Gaza.

    • There never was a famine. One only has to look at the videos. No emaciated individuals anywhere.

  2. Nolte: NYT, WaPo Team Up to Destroy Incoming WaPo Editor

    Robert Winnett is on deck to take over the top editorial position at the far-left Washington Post, and both the Post and the far-left New York Times are teaming up to ensure that doesn’t happen.

    As Breitbart News reported on June 9, although the Washington Post has lost half its readers and closed out 2023 $77 million in the red, the failing outlet’s crybully staff doesn’t want anything to change. They’re angry CEO and publisher William Lewis fired executive editor Sally Buzbee, even though she had three years to right the ship. And they are really angry that White Man Robert Winnett will take her place.

    Please take note that no one at the Post is angry about their employer’s role in any of this…

    What Post staffers are angry about is the very idea of newsroom reforms. These spoiled and entitled fascists believe they have the RIGHT to continue lying to the public to stop Trump. They also believe owner Jeff Bezos should drop $100 million a year to honor that right.

    • If Gazans can get tunnel tech from N. Korea, can the South get detection tech from Israel?

  6. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) has called out voter fraud, “especially in Houston,” after a judge ruled that more than 1,400 votes in a 2022 district court race were invalid, forcing the results to be thrown out.

    “Voter fraud is real. Especially in Houston,” the governor posted on X on Saturday. “The court has found that 1,430 illegal votes were cast in the race for the 180th District Court.”

  7. Dozens of hostages held by Hamas in Gaza are alive, but Israel cannot accept ending the war until all the hostages are released in a deal, a senior Israeli negotiator told Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Monday.

    Dozens “are alive with certainty,” he told AFP anonymously. “We cannot leave them there a long time, they will die.”

  8. CNN issued several controversial presidential debate rules over the weekend that will govern the encounter between former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden on June 27.

    The new rules come after Trump said in March he would debate Biden anywhere, anytime, and anyplace, putting pressure on Biden to participate in the event.

    The Biden campaign agreed in May to a total of two debates that would be closely regulated. It demanded a ban on audiences and approved CNN’s Jake Tapper and Dana Bash as moderators. Tapper is one of Trump’s sharpest critics.
    CNN announced additional parameters on Saturday:

    Two commercial breaks (Likely to benefit Biden)
    Campaign staff will not be able to interact with their candidate during the break
    No opening statements, two-minute closing statements
    Two-minute answer shot clock, one minute for rebuttals
    Mics will be muted “except for the candidate whose turn it is to speak” (Likely to benefit Biden)

  9. The investigation into an alleged assault on a Parliamentary candidate at the weekend has yielded no arrests days later, police have told Breitbart London.

    Steve Rubidge, the Parliamentary Candidate for Reform UK was assaulted while campaigning in Falmouth, Cornwall, on Saturday his party said in a statement seen by Breitbart London. A spokesman for the party told Breitbart that 51-year-old Rubidge was lured away and then attacked by a group of men at a town music festival, that the group called him a “fascist” and swore, and tried to steal his bag containing leaflets, keys, and his phone.

  11. President Joe Biden’s parole amnesty will aid roughly 500,000 illegals who are married to citizens, and who have been in the United States for 10 years, according to media reports.

    Biden will also grant work permits to some of the 550,000 DACA program migrants, which was created by President Barack Obama 12 years ago, in 2012. The DACA program has been frozen by judges, pending a long-delayed final decision against the legality of the program.

  12. Right-wing populist politicians should be “eradicated”, a leading member of the far-left New Popular Front election alliance in France said in a supposed slip of the tongue.

    Clémentine Autain has come under criticism for appearing to suggest on national television in France a preference for violence against right-wing populist politicians for Marine Le Pen’s National Rally (RN) party.

    “If we could eradicate them all that would be great,” she said on broadcaster LCI as reported by the Entrevue magazine while stressing the need for a majority in the National Assembly for the leftist New Popular Front, comprised of her own leftist La France Insoumise (LFI) party, the Socialists, the green Écologistes, and the French Communist Party.

  14. A loose-coalition of anti-Trump groups are planning ahead of November to try to resist actions they fear could be taken by a second potential Trump administration, by preparing lawsuits and planning to intervene in immigration raids.

    According to a report by the New York Times, groups like the far-left Center for American Progress (CAP) and Never Trump groups such as Principles First are teaming up to prepare lawsuits to stop feared potential crackdowns on illegal immigration and abortion access, and efforts to reducing the size of the federal bureaucracy or use troops to restore order.

    “What Trump and his acolytes are running on is an authoritarian playbook,” Patrick Gaspard, the chief executive of the CAP Action Fund, the political arm of the far-left think-tank, told the Times. “So now we have to democracy-proof our actual institutions and the values that we share.”

    Some things the groups are working on include a conference at New York University next month on “Autocracy in America – A Warning and Response,” making plans on fighting deportation and creating a model for volunteers nationwide to record and intervene in immigration raids, drafting potential lawsuits, and recruiting sympathetic plaintiffs.

  15. Horror stories from NYC’s 8th Ave. ‘Strip of Despair’ — where stabbings, drug use and public defecation are the norm

    Business owners and residents along Midtown Manhattan’s “Strip of Despair” are so frequently robbed and harassed by drug-addled “psychopaths” that they’ve stopped trying to resist — or even bother calling the cops for help.

    “Almost every day someone comes into my store to steal,” said 45-year-old Arun Kumar, who owns A’s Coffee Spot on W. 39th St. and 8th Avenue.

    “They take beer the most — they take it and walk out,” he said.

    “It’s too dangerous to try and stop them.”

    Kumar’s shop is located in a stretch of Midtown between Port Authority Bus Terminal and Penn Station that’s come to be known as the “8th Avenue Corridor,” where hard drugs are used in the open and emotionally disturbed people wander the streets screaming at passersby.

    Several locals told The Post that they’re fed-up and scared of what the neighborhood has become — despite New York Mayor Eric Adams insisting on Monday that it’s actually getting better.

  16. An Ecuadorian migrant is in custody after a 13-year-old girl was sexually assaulted in a secluded part of a vast Queens park, according to sources.

    The migrant, who sources believe entered the country in 2021, was taken into police custody early Tuesday — five days after the girl and a 13-year-old boy were held at knifepoint with a “machete-style” blade in the sickening, broad-daylight attack inside Kissena Park on Thursday afternoon.

    The bust comes after the NYPD blasted out images and footage of the young man they were looking for on Monday night. The department was also offering a $10,000 award for information leading to an arrest.

  18. Al Qaeda affiliate Jama’a Nusrat ul-Islam wa al-Muslimin (JNIM) group has claimed responsibility for an attack on June 11 that killed over 100 Burkina Faso soldiers in Mansila area near the border with Niger, the SITE Intelligence Group said on Sunday. FRANCE 24’s Terrorism Expert Wassim Nasr tells us more.

  20. The Iran-backed terrorist organization Hezbollah is dragging Lebanon into a war with Israel at Tehran’s behest, according to Lebanese Christian Maronite MP Camille Dory Chamoun, who declared that three-quarters of Lebanese people oppose Hezbollah, and that Sunnis, Druze, and Christians will unite to act in defense of Lebanon’s interests against Hezbollah’s actions, and can even mobilize 20,000 fighters to do so if necessary.

    In a fiery interview with Al-Mashhad TV (UAE) on Thursday, Chamoun blamed the country’s Hezbollah terror group and its Iranian backers for the ongoing conflict with Israel, as reported by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).

  22. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu published a video statement Tuesday urging the U.S. to stop withholding weapons and ammunition from Israel.

    In May, the Biden administration confirmed that it was withholding heavy precision bombs from Israel in protest against Israel’s decision to enter the southern Gaza town of Rafah to fight the last remaining Hamas battalions.

    As a result, Israel was forced to send troops into potentially booby-trapped buildings rather than bombing them.

    The White House said it was concerned about Palestinian civilian casualties, but a million civilians left Rafah.

  23. The Philippine military said on Monday that one of its sailors suffered a “serious injury” when a Chinese Coast Guard vessel conducted an “intentional high-speed ramming” attack against a Philippine supply ship in the South China Sea.

    The Philippine ship was attempting to deliver supplies to a tiny military outpost on the Second Thomas Shoal, constructed from the hulk of a ship called the BRP Sierra Madre that was deliberately run aground in 1999, when a Chinese coast guard vessel rammed it.

  24. The government of radical leftist Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sent a Canadian warship to visit Havana, Cuba, this weekend, a move detractors told Breitbart News on Monday is “morally and strategically unjustifiable” given the Castro regime’s close ties to Canada’s enemies.

    “I consider this decision a ratification of the failure and inconsistency of the Prime Minister’s foreign policy on Cuba,” Michael Lima Cuadra, the director of the Canadian human rights organization Democratic Spaces, told Breitbart News.

    Democratic Spaces, founded by the Cuban-Canadian researcher, focuses on pressuring the traditionally Cuba-friendly Canadian government to confront and condemn the over half-century of human rights atrocities the Communist Party has committed and continues to do so against its people.
