Reader’s Links for July 20th, 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.

    • We can expect a lot more attacks, the left is going to try and scare away from the ballot box by attacking President Trumps’ supporters. We will probably see more assassination attempts and some of them will succeed, we will see more arson at the homes and work places of prominent Trump supporters. This election campaign is descending into the beginning of a classic asymmetric war. The tactics are classics because then work, but there are also classic counter tactics that work so it will depend on if the Feds will really work to stop the lefts attacks or if they will set still and let the war play out.

  4. This fellow flirts with Hegel in financial terms. Commenting on yesterday’s worldwide digital bitch slap, he makes good observations.

    Whether it was intentional or not is irrelevant. The effects of the event were noted. Human and market behavior is being assessed. Is this not the root of power and utility behind Marxism? Behind the dialectic? The study and understanding of human behavior with predictable outcomes? If we observe the behavior of mice for 200 years we get to know them fairly well.

  5. AOC Livestreams Hour-Long Rant: Says Nobody will Support Kamala as Biden’s Replacement and Calls Trump a “Neo-Nazi” Just Days After He was Shot

    AOC took to an hour-long livestream session on Thursday night, to vent her concerns over the possibility of the Democrat Party replacing Biden as the presidential nominee, and, of course, take an unhinged

    The rant followed just hours after Trump’s RNC speech. It opened with deranged comments from AOC calling Trump an old, racist, neo-nazi while attempting to rationalize her continued support for the Democrat party, even after Biden’s humiliating debate debacle.

    ”The president is old. The president is very old. Donald Trump is also very old, and a racist, and a neo-nazi” she claimed.

    Despite Biden being a disaster to the party, AOC says she’s sticking with him and is concerned over talks of replacing the nominee so close to the Democratic Convention.

    “If you 10,000 percent are super convinced that the candidate or the president cannot beat Donald Trump, then like, do what you think is in your good conscience. But I have not seen an alternative scenario that does not set us up for enormous peril.” She exclaimed to her viewers.

    The representative’s remarks, despite her dancing around most of the points she was attempting to make, appear to emphasize a growing divide amongst the party, particularly between the government and the class of people who influence the government, as described by AOC.

    “In the country that we live in, we have everyday people and voters, and we have the government, and then you kind of have this class of people in between, from pundits and media, and wealthy people, and donors, and organization leaders.” She said.

    AOC went on to blame the media pundits and donors for manufacturing t

    Israel Strikes Yemen—First Direct Retaliation For Houthi Attacks
    https://www.forbes.com/sites/brianbushard/2024/07/20/israel-claims-responsibility-for-yemen-strike/
    The Israel Defense Forces claimed responsibility on Saturday for a deadly aerial strike in western Yemen—the first time Israel has directly attacked the Houthi militant group as tensions have grown in recent months just one day after a Houthi drone strike on Tel Aviv.
    KEY FACTS
    The IDF said in a statement Saturday afternoon its fighter jets struck Houthi “military targets” in the Al Hudaydah Port along the Red Sea in western Yemen, claiming the strike was a direct response “to the hundreds of attacks carried out against the State of Israel in recent months.”

    The attack in Yemen struck oil refineries and electrical infrastructure, Israeli outlets Haaretz and The Jerusalem Post reported, citing a Houthi spokesperson and the Houthi-run news outlet Al-Masirah.

    The strike in Yemen comes one day after the Houthis claimed responsibility for a fatal drone attack on Tel Aviv that left at least one person killed and nearly a dozen injured in Israel’s second largest city.

    In a statement on X, a spokesperson for the Iran-backed Houthis said the attack on Tel Aviv was in retaliation for Israel’s ongoing military operation in the Gaza Strip, a war that began Oct. 7.

    • DEVELOPING: Israel Bombards Yemen’s Oil Depot in Retaliatory Strike Following Tel Aviv Suicide Drone Attack

      The conflict in the Middle East is rapidly breaking outside the confines of Israel, as neighboring Yemen was pummeled with a major retaliatory strike on Saturday by Israeli forces after a suicide drone killed two citizens in downtown Tel Aviv.

      Footage of the initial drone attack was shared online by social media users. It was captured by a citizen standing on the beach in downtown Tel Aviv – which lies on Israel’s Mediterranean coast – and shows a Houthi-launched drone speeding overhead before it disappeared into the city skyline. Moments later it connected with a building killing one and injuring ten others.

      It is unclear how the drone flew undetected through Israel’s vaunted Iron Dome.

      The suicide drone flew directly over the US embassy.

      Following the strike, Israel responded by unleashing a hellish attack on the Houthi’s home country of Yemen.

      According to an Israel Defense Forces statement, “A short while ago, IDF fighter jets struck military targets of the Houthi terrorist regime in the area of the Al Hudaydah Port in Yemen in response to the hundreds of attacks carried out against the State of Israel in recent months.”

      Videos shared online show IDF forces bombarding the marked zones and the apocalyptic destruction that followed.

      — The News You Dont See (@Crazynews4real) July 20, 2024

      Early and unconfirmed reports claim that the IDF also struck one of the country’s largest oil refineries with around a dozen F-35 Raptors in a joint operation with US Forces. If this is true, this is a concerning escalation in regards to the United State’s involvement in the conflict.

      The Times of Israel reported:

      “The Al Arabiya outlet, citing unnamed sources, says the strike against the fuel depot and oil refineries at the port of Al-Hudaydah in Yemen, was carried out jointly by Israel, the US, and the UK. The report also claims that 12 Israeli aircraft, including F-35 fighter jets, participated in the attack.”

      Users on social media shared footage of the oil refinery following the attack:
