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. But use it safely.
ADDENDUM:
This site operates more at the philosophical level of the communist/Islamic revolution which is obliterating Western Civilization. Politics, culture, law are all down stream from philosophy. Understanding the philosophy of the attack is to understand what is an attack and develop tactics, both individually and collectively against them. The attack comes entirely (so far) in the form of Dialectics. To understand dialectics, watch and read everything you can by Maj. (Ret.) Stephen Coughlin.
Here is a repost of the simplest explanation, or at least the shortest one, we have been able to think of so far (Placed here by request)
We as humans communicate mostly via conventions. In other words, we decide what a word means by what we, as a culture want it to mean, then fix the term as a convention via a dictionary
or other means so we can express what we want to each other and be understood. It’s a group process more or less but based on what we want expressions, words, concepts and taxonomy to mean.
Dialectics is the imposition of meaning on existing terms for a political outcome which is destructive to what we all consider meaning. It is a complete hijacking of Meaning.
This also applies to taxonomy. The most underrated aspect of epistemology. Of how we see ourselves. Of how we understand the world, via categories. Via labels.
Dialectical taxonomy is what forces us to change everything we think about sexuality and accept political sexuality such as the Trans-movement.
Or somehow convincing everyone that the German National Socialist Worker’s Party is somehow “far right wing”, which may be the most masterful dialectical con of the 20th century.
This deserves a proper essay. But I just want to get the thought out there.
Imposing, forcing meaning on us. Changing terms to mean what a group of tyrants what us to think they mean as opposed to what they do mean and more or less always have meant.
Making words mean something other than what we meant them to mean, then banning or criminalizing them because of their imputed meaning, even though they were good, useful terms that helped hold our culture together.
Attacking us for using perfectly good words with important meanings, then telling us what we meant by what we said, then cancelling us for it in the pre-revolutionary stage, and now in the UK outright arrest you now that the revolution is all but complete.
That is dialectics.
BRITISH COLUMBIA ELECTION – Massive victory, a majority, for the nascent Conservative party.

Don’t cha just love the pollsters telling people going into Election Day how very close the count is and the Conservatives might have a slight edge. It is sorta, kinda, like CBC telling us Canadians everyone is so in love with Carney.
Yes Canada doesn’t have news it has propaganda.
Now the question is, did BC just elect controlled opposition and slightly different rhetoric or did they get an actual sea change.
Carney was the first to congratulate him via phone call.
The guy is new on the scene. He’s pro-natural gas, pro-civil property rights (aka anti-Aboriginal land seizures), provincial parks are for everybody.
Sorry. Carney sent him a congratulatory tweet.
How is Europe’s deconstruction not an engineered event?
How does it pursue population replacement using subprime human capital without negative impact?
How does it pump leftist ideology into multiple generations by its education system without negative impact?
How does it decarbonize by shutting pipelines, coal plants and nuclear facilities without negative impact?
How does it deindustrialize, and chase off investment capital, without negative impact?
How does it frighten off Jews without negative impact?
It must be concluded that all events fall within expected parameters by the likes of Macron and other EU suits.
Italy’s Melonie is a great example, in my opinion, of a thespian playing a leader. Tough talk after the damage is done reeks of intent or stupidity.
Ascribing stupidity provides an excuse to inexcusable and intentional prior actions. Macron mobilizes 70,000 cops? How about a hundred thousand? How about one million, restrict all communications, call it communism, and call it a day?

Is a thespian an actress in sensible shoes?
Dear ‘Mericans:

Again, they are not intended to survive. Duh.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/10/many-western-governments-won-t-survive/
You got that right. After the civil wars are over all of the western nations that manage to survive will start working on how to prevent another attempted left wing coup.

ISRAELI ELECTION
Iran on Israel’s ballot?

Sometime in the next two weeks, somewhere between 11 and 13 delegations will call at the President’s Residence. In front of the cameras, each will tell President Isaac Herzog whom it recommends for prime minister. Whoever emerges victorious in that election will then have to contend with the results of the previous one, and depending on the outcome, will face one of four scenarios…

Fact is, post-PT, the West may well go full gnat-zee, do the South Africa BDS thing to is-real. Gotta think about options. First off – and this is happening already – stop all U.S. aid and diversify partners.
But what if the post-West West goes full sanctions? What options are available? Bibi ponders – crypto? Cue critic hysteria.
Plutarch records that Sparta’s money was made of iron bars, so heavy and so worthless abroad that no foreigner would accept them. Nearly three millennia later, speaking to Channel 10’s economic network, Benjamin Netanyahu floated a solution for the day foreigners stop accepting Israel’s money: a currency that weighs nothing at all. Crypto.
In his Friday appearance, Netanyahu probably did not mean to evoke his own super-Sparta speech of 2025. More likely, he was trying to borrow the tech-futurist shine of Donald Trump’s 2024 promise of a national crypto reserve. Yet rather than the economies of the future, the comment reminded Israelis of North Korea.
The opposition promptly piled on. Opposition leader Yair Lapid [vomit] said Netanyahu had all but admitted that another term would cost Israel American military aid and bring sanctions that would cripple the economy.
Avigdor Liberman [never-Bibi and that’s-all], a former finance minister, pointed out that blockchain transactions are traceable, which makes them a poor hiding place, and that Netanyahu had blocked crypto regulation at home for years.
Yashar leader Gadi Eisenkot [soft left toddy for U.S. Demonrats] went for the blunter charge that Netanyahu is dismantling the Israeli economy.
Even the Bank of Israel offered its own criticism, declaring that “cryptocurrencies cannot serve as a means to circumvent sanctions.”
Iran and North Korea, both heavy users of the technology, make it obvious that if you are sanctioned by the entire world, the blockchain will not preserve a third-world economy, let alone a first-world one. Still, the simple fact that the government is thinking about the problem is a good sign.
The remark could be read as a dire warning of impending sanctions or as an election stunt gone wrong. While the threat behind the former is real, I would place this statement of Netanyahu’s firmly in the latter category.

Tehran Is a Different Beast Now
Iran’s actions in the past seven months reflect a sober reassessment that there is little to gain by playing it safe: Its only chance to survive is an aggressive posture that imposes enough cost that the U.S. and its regional partners can no longer easily threaten the Islamic Republic’s existence – even if that brinksmanship brings the regime’s own survival to the edge.
The unprecedented decapitation strikes on Iran’s leadership have likely persuaded its surviving members that they are “dead men walking.” The regime-change rhetoric from hawks in the U.S. and Israel has convinced Tehran that its enemies will never stop trying to “finish the job.”
If the U.S. ends the conflict with the Islamic Republic left standing, Tehran’s hardline leaders will be intent on rebuilding Iran’s strength. Iran will not only rely on its ability to control regional waterways. Iran will widen, harden, and advance its missile and drone program – though it will probably take years for Iran to fully rebuild its arsenal.
Iran will regrow its regional proxy forces that Israel weakened in recent years. Tehran also likely will determine that it is time to become the nuclear-armed Iran that its enemies so deeply fear.

Trump Is Failing to Make Iran Flinch
The ruling clerics and the commanders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps seek to create a new order, imposing tolls on ships traversing the Strait of Hormuz and severing security ties between the U.S. and the Arab Gulf states. The regime also wants to find a means to deter Washington and Jerusalem from attacking.
Until Tehran can revive its nuclear weapons program, domination of the Persian Gulf is the only way to possibly checkmate the country’s primary foes. Any diplomatic compact that ends this war must, from Tehran’s perspective, bring about American capitulation. This is how the Iranian regime saw the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding – the interim peace agreement signed on June 17.

Will PT will toss off a few big booms – MOABs – and claim he’s personally obliterated the enemy, let’s-make-a-deal, over-&-out?
Is he capable of learning from his mistakes?
ugh
Seth Frantzman @sfrantzman
If one cheers on a conflict then one shouldn’t be surprised by it, or the ramifications.
There has long been this bizarre lack of awareness among the extremist pro-Palestinian types, that some of them both support the conflict, but then also are surprised by the horrors it unleashes.
It never makes sense. Anyone can see that when war begins, or when attacks happen, that there is going to be blowback. Some people rationalize and excuse the attacks by describing the attacks themselves as blowback, as in “right to resist.”
One can preach all they want about “right to resist” but anyone who studies war will note that just because one can define all sorts of theoretical concepts about the “right” to do something…doesn’t mean that it will turn out right.
