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.

Main point:
“If the Biden administration is permitted to do this,” [Attorney Kontorovich] writes, “a different administration down the line could freeze the bank accounts of Americans who support left-wing Israeli groups simply by deeming their activities bad for peace and stability in the West Bank. Sanctions have never been used to silence policy disagreements like this.”
The Biden administration “has made clear by its words and enforcement actions that only Jewish people are at risk at being sanctioned,” the complaint says.that its vagueness violates the Fifth Amendment’s guarantee of due process, which includes a “fair notice” requirement.When the U.S. government imposes sanctions on someone, “his bank accounts and those of his immediate family will be frozen,” George Mason University law professor Eugene Kontorovich, one of the plaintiffs’ attorneys, notes in The Wall Street Journal. “Anyone who provides any ‘funds, goods, or services’ to them may in turn be subjected to sanctions as well. These are harsh measures typically reserved for terrorists and dictators. Texans for Israel’s support for Judea and Samaria settlements—by hosting speaking events or donating to Israeli advocacy groups—is an exercise of its First Amendment rights. But because of the breadth of the executive order, which sweeps in vast amounts of perfectly legal conduct, it faces massive financial risks that unconstitutionally chill its free speech.”Biden’s order says “there need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made pursuant to this order.””This open-ended and vague provision empowers the Office of Foreign Assets Control within the Department of Treasury (‘OFAC’) to sanction anyone who acts contrary to what the Secretary of the Treasury determines advances the cause of ‘peace, security, or stability of the West Bank.’ This violates the First Amendment.”Because the order prohibits “the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services” to a designated individual, it also applies to U.S. citizens.
This pundit does not fully parse this announcement by Russia to buy 30 tons of gold. Yes, it may signal other nations to buy as well, which is also is a volley across the USD bow. I believe this to be a next step in financial, and pre-kinetic warfare.
It is also an experiment to see how the market reacts to mere words. How fragile is the precious metals futures (paper) market? How much lifting can it do when it is already strained by physical demand? With a physical silver supply/demand deficit of between 250-400 million ounces, for example, what happens if futures traders run out of Comex inventory to support their naked trades? Then, you have the Ag/Au ratio that stands at 87.6 as of this writing. Depending on where you look this ratio should be between 1:16 to 1:40. Russia’s bold telegraph may place even more pressure on this ratio if gold continues to rise without silver following. Talk about trying to hold a beach ball under water.
Genius Keynes inverted the meaning of money like Hegel inverted truth. Like alchemy, Keynes turned credit into money. Ever the opportunists, Fabians seized power then seized this illusion of money. Russia now targets this grand lie not directly, but like a sniper aiming to miss just to see if the target gets the gist. This is our true achilles heel.

Germany’s AfD has has acquired a list of the forenames of all 2023 gang rape suspects in one federal state, claiming it shows the vast majority are of migrant heritage.
“A clear trend is evident” in the forenames of those named as suspects in gang rapes in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), it is stated, after the Alternative for Germany (AfD) faction applied for a release of information not found in normal government data releases.
There were 209 reported ‘gang rapes’ in NRW in 2023, a publication by the state’s interior ministry answering questions by two parliamentarians from the right-wing-populist, anti-mass migration AfD reports. The document notes while there is no actual definition of gang rape in German law, the research was facilitated by looking at reported rape cases where suspects were recorded as not working alone.

In their newest edition of their handbook, The Center For Occupational Health and Safety focused on a ‘hypothetical virus’, which they warn could trigger more disruption than Covid-19 did, and people should brace for disruptions in telecommunications, banking, water, gasoline medicine and food.

Shooting at Israel’s Munich consulate seen as attempted terror attack
https://www.yahoo.com/news/shooting-israels-munich-consulate-seen-161526795.html
The deadly shooting near the Israeli consulate in Munich was an attempted terrorist attack, police and the public prosecutor’s office said on Thursday.
The incident saw an 18-year-old Austrian shot dead by police after opening fire on five officers in the southern German city. No one else was hurt, the police said.
Prosecutors said on Thursday afternoon that the attack is believed to have targeted the Israeli consulate in central Munich.
The incident took place on the anniversary of the Munich massacre, a terrorist attack by Palestinian militants which claimed the lives of 11 Israelis during the 1972 Olympic Games in the city.
The young man, with roots in Bosnia, was from the Salzburg region and had been investigated last year on suspicion that he had become religiously radicalized and was interested in explosives and weapons, Austrian police said.
Police had imposed a weapons ban on the man that was to have been in place until at least the beginning of 2028, according to the Salzburg police.
At the time, the then 17-year-old had come to the attention of the authorities after threatening fellow pupils and causing bodily harm. It was in this context that he was accused of participating in a terrorist organization.
According to the Austrian news agency APA, propaganda from the terrorist organization Islamic State was found on his mobile phone.
However, the Salzburg public prosecutor’s office discontinued the investigation in April 2023, the police said, without explaining why the investigation was dropped.
“Since then, the 18-year-old has not had contact with the police,” the Salzburg police said.
Austrian authorities had seized data and a computer game from his mobile phone that showed his proximity to Islamist-terrorist ideas, the APA news agency reported.
Around 500 police officers were deployed in Munich city centre, including special forces. The shooter was armed with a carbine or long gun and a bayonet, according to the police.
Meanwhile, Austria’s DSN, its state security authority, has been in contact with the Israeli embassy in Vienna and the Jewish community about the incident. Interior Minister Gerhard Karner said the country’s own security measures were increased.
All of the nations on earth are sprinting to a major civil war, in some cases the cause is the left trying to take control by allowing illegal invaders into the country. In others the cause is religious hatred and in others it is racism, in a few it is because the leftist governments have followed Marxist economics and their economies are collapsing. The coming wars are occurring while new technology is making it easier for individuals to acquire weapons while other new technology is allowing governments and groups to acquire and use long range weapons.
The wanna be Totalitarians are going to try and use the ensuing chaos to seize control of the world by promising to stop the violence and ensure safety if we will just give up our rights and freedom. We must rally around and support the leaders who are supporting individual rights and freedom, we must do this even when this will cause more violence. If we don’t do this freedom will disappear from the world for many decades if not many centuries.
Agree 100% I am thankful for men like you Richard.
I lost my 100% reverence for Bibi when he volunteered his entire population for Pfizer to use as lab rats.
I started looking more closely at the central temporizing strategy for dealing with tards, “Mowing The Lawn”. It’s known as Mabam, or “Campaign Between Wars”. It might be the default for living with, and surrounded by, a large tardish population anywhere in the world. At best there will be extended hudnas.
(I have extensive files on this strategy. For an introduction, 2019:
The Mabam Strategy: Israel, Iran, Syria (and Russia)
https://jewishreviewofbooks.com/articles/5205/the-mabam-strategy-israel-iran-syria-and-russia/ )
.
Though the Kenyan POTUS failed to take him out in a decade of color revolutions, his cabal succeeded in suborning the leftist elites. Exactly the same elements – the MUG – who are tearing us apart here. I wish Bibi had a stronger authoritarian streak, just as I wish Israel would’ve said – Thanks, but no thanks – to funding from U.S. defense contractors.
Still, I believe he’s been the most outstanding chief of state in the world for decades. The West should pay attention: evaluate strategies field-tested in Israel.

WoW, great minds think alike!
Dan Greenfield’s rebuttal of Mabam, or this garbage “mowing the lawn”. Brilliant, strong article:
Israel has the right to win
Not a right to defend itself. A right to win.
[…]
In 1948, 1967 and 1973, Israel undertook to win. In those first three decades, it won and emerged stronger for it. In the next terrible four decades, it lost land, ambition and safety in a failed search for a peace that could never come on any terms other than its own strength.
Defense was traded for offense. Conflicts were to be managed. A weakening deterrence would reduce the scope of any individual exchange of fire. The United States and the Europeans would offer “guarantees” in exchange for a perpetual process of peace negotiations and war.
That was Israel’s “right to defend itself.”
On Oct. 7, Israel hit bottom. The cost of peace at any price was no longer just the ethnic cleansing of Jews from Gaza, rockets falling on major cities or a worldwide campaign of demonization by its “peace partners,” but a new invasion of Israel. Out of that horror rises a single fundamental question: Will Israel remain on the defensive or will it fight to win.
The right to defend itself is Israel’s slow suicide. Survival rests on the right to win.

Thanks guys, things are getting serious so everyone needs to start watching their backs and if possible carry weapons for self defense. I know that not all states and nations are as civilized as Missouri so you can’t carry like I do. I wish you could and pray for your survival during the coming chaos.
EXCLUSIVEChinese lab linked to Covid leak may have also released ANOTHER deadly virus, new research claims

The Chinese lab that the FBI believes likely leaked Covid-19 may have also released a ‘highly evolved’ strain of polio in 2014.
A bombshell new study suggests that this polio strain, which infected a four-year-old boy amid a wider viral outbreak in China’s Anhui province, is ’99 percent’ identical to a polio variant that was stored 200 miles away, during that same time period, at the infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Researchers at France’s Pasteur Institute cannot say with certainty where this strain, dubbed ‘WIV14,’ originated. But they insisted two possibilities ‘must be explored’ — including the chance that WIV14 polio originated within the Wuhan institute itself.
‘The findings underscore the shocking unsafe state of global virology research,’ Harvard-trained molecular biologist Dr Richard Ebright, who was not involved with the research, told DailyMail.com.
