Reader’s Links for July 31, 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. The Substack is a different project in a sense. It is older videos that in the light of subsequent events, look different or of increased importance, Check it out now and again if you like.

  3. A most eloquent commentary on the happenings in the UK by one of the world’s most famous banjo players:

    Winston Marshall: Britain Has Erupted Into CHAOS

  4. Senator Mike Lee is the son of a Constitutional Law Professor. In this admittedly long interview, he discusses some very, very interesting things. It is not just about the Obama Coup etc., but about the mechanisms of how the Uniparty operates, how they capture legislators and their staffers (perhaps the most interesting bit – delaying passing information on to the legislators does affect a lot of things…) and the Constitutional implications of this. It is truly a riveting interview by Tucker Carlson.

    • The US needs to worry more about legal aliens who are Marxist professors than about illegal ones who come here to participate in a capitalist republic.

  7. Another ‘austere religious scholar’ makes headlines as he raises money for land along the US border for a Sharia domain, complete with jihad training camps
    By Olivia Murray
    While journalists at The Washington Post might call Sheikh Yasser al-Habib an “austere religious scholar” (the descriptor so affectionately used to eulogize Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi after he detonated himself and his own children a tunnel to evade capture by U.S. forces), others night label the Muslim cleric a terrorist, or even just a devout Islamist, while a report at the Daily Mail describes al-Habib as a “vile Muslim extremist”; after the massacres in the kibbutzim on October 7th, al-Habib reportedly said he and his followers were “buoyed” by the slaughter, and rhetorically asked, “Who among us does not enjoy retaliation of the Zionist enemy?”

  8. MN governor Tim Walz: ‘One person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness’
    By Olivia Murray
    “One person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness.”

    At least, that’s how Tim Walz, governor of Minnesota, described his progressive “values” during a “White Dudes for Harris” fundraising call on Monday evening. Here’s a video clip from the event, for reference:
    …
    “Neighborliness” — is that what we’re calling it now?

    The Bolsheviks were just being neighborly as they carried out the Red Terror decree, “which prescribed ‘mass shooting’ to be ‘inflicted without hesitation.’”

    Joseph Stalin was just being neighborly when he de facto seized private property for the state, collectivized the farms, shipped the resistant kulaks off to prison camps, and starved millions of people to death.

    The Spanish socialists were just being neighborly when they murdered thousands of Catholics in what was known as the Spanish Red Terror.

    Adolf Hitler was just being neighborly when he used political power to destroy the private businesses of Jews, and implemented social programs like “Realm’s Work Committee of Institutions for Cure and Care” and “Charitable Transport Company for the Sick” — the former was the agency that collected medical questionnaires to determine a person’s value, the latter was the government apparatus that delivered the members of society found “unworthy” of life to the killing centers.

    Fidel Castro was just being neighborly when he ruled so wickedly that the Cuban people would rather inject themselves with AIDS than live under his regime.

    Che Guevara was just being neighborly when he ordered a father and his twin boys before a firing squad for resisting the theft of their “humble family farm,” and installed a big, beautiful picture window overlooking the prison yard so he could watch the executions any time he wanted to take a break from his administrative duties.

  11. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled that Texas can keep the buoys Governor Greg Abbott ordered installed in the Rio Grande. The Biden-Harris administration sued the State of Texas to stop Texas from placing the barriers in the river that separates Mexico from the U.S.

    “Biden tried to remove them. I fought to keep them in the water,” Abbott posted on social media. “That is exactly where they will stay.”

  12. On Thursday on MSNBC’s “Monring Joe,” network contributor Molly Jong-Fast argued that Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), the GOP vice presidential nominee, wanted “more white children” and that this is why he made his comment about policy directed by “childless cat ladies” in 2021.

    Vance and his wife Usha are the parents of three biracial children.

  13. Dozens of mercenaries from Russia’s notorious Wagner Group were reportedly killed in two separate ambushes in Mali over the weekend.

    An affiliate of al-Qaeda claims to have killed 50 Wagner fighters in the northern Kindal region on Saturday, while Tuareg separatists boasted of killing dozens more near the Algerian border.

    “Our forces decisively obliterated these enemy columns on Saturday. A large amount of equipment and weapons were seized or damaged,” said Mohamed Elamouloud Ramadane, spokesman for the Tuareg insurgency in northern Mali, which calls itself the Permanent Strategic Framework for Peace, Security, and Development.

    Ramadane said the rebels additionally killed and captured Malian troops, losing seven of its own fighters in the process.

  14. The newly installed British Home Secretary (interior minister) responded with fury to a riot following a mass stabbing of young children, but has been accused of double standards after other recent riots among different racial communities were apparently treated with more understanding.

    The United Kingdom appears to again tousling with that traditional brain-teaser, namely who is more dangerous to society: the knife people, or the people who are angry about the knife people.

  16. Former President Donald Trump’s campaign on Tuesday declared Project 2025 dead, as it sought to put distance between itself and a conservative plan that has turned into a political problem for the GOP.

    Democrats had said the collection of ideas, including good-government proposals and far-right thoughts about reshaping the executive branch, was a road map for what a second Trump term would look like.

    But his campaign said Project 2025, orchestrated by The Heritage Foundation and supported by a coalition of other conservative groups, was never a Trump campaign product.

  18. Turkey will invite Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to address the Turkish parliament in the coming days, Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmus was cited as saying by state-owned Anadolu news agency on Wednesday.

    “If there are no issues, we will invite Mr. Abbas to the Turkish Parliament General Assembly and he will explain the Palestinian cause in front of lawmakers,” Kurtulmus was quoted as saying.

  19. Why South Africa’s ANC political party has taken an anti-Israel, pro-terrorist stance – opinion
    South Africa’s ANC, accused of accepting bribes from Iran, continues its anti-Israel stance, affecting diplomatic relations and trade.

    It all stems from the dark days of apartheid. Israel, aware of its obligations to the large Jewish community living in South Africa, maintained diplomatic, military, and trade relations with the government – even though it condemned the regime’s apartheid policies, and applied trade and cultural sanctions from 1987 until apartheid ended. The African National Congress (ANC), fighting tooth and nail to eliminate apartheid, perceived Israel as less than a whole-hearted friend, and embraced the Palestinian cause.

    On Nelson Mandela’s release from prison in 1990, one of the first leaders he met with was his close friend and confidante, Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) leader Yasser Arafat. When he visited Israel in 1999, Mandela was very supportive of the Palestinian cause.

    …

    The facts are that, shortly before South Africa accused Israel in the ICJ of committing genocide in Gaza, the South African ruling party (ANC) known to have longstanding and crippling debts, suddenly announced that its financial problems had been resolved. It provided no information as to how this had been achieved.

    Kamala Harris wants you to believe she is an African American woman…

    If so, then why does her birth certificate not list her as such?

    Her birth certificate identifies her mother as a CAUCASIAN BORN IN INDIA and her father as Jamaican.
