Ted Cruz handles one of the oldest rhetorical tricks beautifully.

Posted on by

I wasn’t going to post anything else tonight but this was just too good. Ted Cruz, Republican presidential hopeful, was asked the Marxist version of one of the oldest rhetorical tricks in the book. The classic example of this is, ‘”How often do you beat your wife?” but its been updated to, “Do you have a personal animosity against gay Americans?”.

Mr. Cruz dealt with it precisely as he should have. If people do not like it, its a failure of the public and not of his character or thought process.

Leftists chant threats against specific classical-liberals while carrying signs about love in Sweden

Posted on by

As in the U.S., where the very same people who would have burned Joseph McCarthy alive for his attempts to stop communist subversion in Hollywood are banning Southern U.S. flags and exhuming the bodies of long-dead generals and their wives, Sweden’s leftists are carrying a sign bragging of superior values while threatening to physically beat specific people speaking in favour of  classical civilization.

A few thoughts on the media’s policy on naming people to advance a political agenda

Posted on by

A couple of times in the past week examples of the media using names to push a political narrative has come up. This has been addressed before on this site and very well on Gates of Vienna at that link.

This week it has to do with an accomplice in the case of the Boston man who wanted to decapitate Pamela Geller or a random police officer or whatever other target. Clearly anyone who is that committed to jihad has taken an islamic name which will come out sooner or later but the media will never use. Instead, they call him by his birth name, David Wright. The same media, CNN, MSNBC and so on, also referred to various people captured and executed by the Islamic State by names they were almost certainly forced to take when the IS forced them to ‘convert’ to islam. Examples are in this document as well as the link to GoV above.

The reason the media chose to refer to these people by their non-chosen islamic names is almost certainly because the Obama admin. and its lackey media is desperate to find ways of painting muslims as victims and non-muslims as aggressors. Its an old trick but it must be working as they clearly have not changed it.

Also I notice the media desperate to refer to a man who is the newest ‘celebrity surgically-assisted-transvestite’ as his taken female name as if somehow by an act of god he had been transformed into an XX female by mere will, a dress and some saline plastic bags placed on his pectoral muscles. No one in the industry we should laughingly call, ‘news’ bothers to mention that it is in fact impossible to change genders. Short of a very few genetic defects where a person is born with a condition that requires some surgery to become one or the other, 99+% of the population is male or female and this is how our species and nearly every other one carries on. Frankly its embarrassing to even write this stuff as its so damn obvious. But cultural marxism has managed to take what is in fact a mental illness and make it into a human right. It is like demanding rights for schizophrenics to live out their hallucinations no matter how they impact others. As it turns out, I am not the only one who thinks this. So does this John Hopkins psychiatrist.  I wonder if he will lose his license for daring to say something medically true but politically heretical.

Doubly irritating is the notion that Obama called this man “brave” for daring to go public with his sexual deviancy. We are in fact talking about a man who has climbed so high on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs that he likely got a nosebleed. That could apply to both of them actually. Its not like Obama had any real struggle. Bruce at least had to train for the Olympics and anyone can see his school records.

Granted I would be guessing, but it seems to me that to someone who’s family has enjoyed receiving millions of dollars for basically just receiving millions of dollars for so long now, the concepts of what is risk, bravery and meaningful contributions to society is pretty damn warped.

Cultural Marxism has in fact warped our entire notion of what is true, right and wrong to the extent that I found myself feeling like somehow I should download and preserve the clip below before the politburo decides it must not be viewed by the unwashed masses, much like a cartoon of mohamed, the pirate rapist founder of islam.

Three interviews of Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Posted on by

Here are a few interviews with one of the most interesting and important voices of our time. Its critical to understand the basics of her background to appreciate the gravitas of her message and the best way to get that is her outstanding book, Infidel. One of the best reads anyone might experience, at least according to the people I spoke to who have read it, including myself.

But I post these interviews more to show the bias of the CBC rather than much about Ayaan who is likely well known to readers of this site.

First, an older interview by a left wing extremist named, Avi Lewis, who I believe left the CBC to go work for Al Jazeera. June 2007

Notice his repugnant treatment of someone who has endured more hardship than Mr. Lewis can fathom in his privileged existence. Because she didn’t fit his culturally marxist narrative of an evil US (as Bush was president at the time) and all cultures other than white European as morally superior to that one, he felt he could show that much derision and contempt on live TV.

Let’s see if things have improved at all now: May 15 – 2015 Wendy Mesley

Its noteworthy that the CBC interviewer lied twice by minute 7. For one thing, Prime Minister Harper did not say Islam was rooted in a culture that was anti woman but that the niqab or face cloth is rooted in a culture that is anti woman. By implication however that could mean islam. But many muslims claim that the face cloth is a tribal or cultural practice like FGM and have nothing to do with islam. So while I agree with Prime Minister Harper in either case, he did not say that. Secondly the interviewer claimed PM Harper was denying the head cloth. This is an outright fabrication. (Pun not intended but allowed to stand in evidence) Stephen Harper objected to the covering of the face with a face cloth during important ceremonies in government buildings. This is significantly different from what the interviewer said, not implied, but stated. Ayaan herself without knowing the facts differentiated between the head cloth and the face cloth.

All in all, it would appear that the CBC has learned to conceal its contempt for all things conservative better than Mr. Lewis did, while still trying to shape the narrative in the same way. When the interviewer tries to trap Ayaan into advocating for Omar Khadr as victim it becomes clear what the agenda of the show is. At least Mr. Lewis’s show, The Agenda, was more honestly named.

Now lets watch Bill Mahar in his most recent interview with Ayaan Hirsi Ali:

He starts out by revealing her bias. This is fair. But the questions allow her to explain her PoV and not his agenda. Even though its safe to say at this point, they may be very similar.

She is of course, wrong about the idea of an Islamic reformation. It is having one now, Its called, Salafism, Wahabism and the Islamic state In fact the problem with islam is the reformation of it into what it always was, instead of the tamed version of it we forced during the colonial years. If we are no longer willing to accept the responsibilities of colonialism, then we should at least protect ourselves from the fallout of abandoning that responsibility.

(The Bill Mahar segment was removed from YT but this small but very good part is working at the moment, even if it doesn’t make the point as well)

VICE News: Another tool for the Obama narrative on Islam

Posted on by

weatFor anyone who remembers VICE when it was an edgy innovative organization that made rapid status for itself by speaking the unvarnished truth about places like Liberia and North Korea and about interesting subjects like Datura, (Scopolamine) the drug that makes people so suggestible they may give away everything they own to strangers after a single unaware dose of it, this article may be painful to read.

Not long ago, VICE did a video on the aftermath of the murders of the Jewish people and attempted murder of free speech advocates in Denmark where they had a woman in tears defending islam and ignoring it’s victims, saying that the real tragedy was the image of islam by Danes. The woman looked so much like she staged the whole thing, as the speech she gave as a ‘woman on the street’ interview was so perfectly delivered yet through spontaneous tears of grief that, at least last time I looked, even VICE felt it was too much and took down the video altogether.

Since then, all kinds of VICE videos dealing with islam have appeared which frequently use common deceptions to sell the narrative of a hijacked islam. And lets not even mention the ‘interview’ they gave Justin Trudeau which has to have been scripted by his own campaign managers. I can’t link to the Danish video because they took it down. But Im sure its out there somewhere should it be needed.

In the 3 part video, ‘The War Against Boko Haram’ they manage a massive amount of ‘lie by omission.’ In part 1 they only interview muslim ‘victims’ of Boko Haram’s outrageous horrors against the Nigerian population and never mention any of the enormous number of Churches and Christian targets of Boko Haram, nor do they interview any Christian victims, nor do they bother to mention the full name of that group, “Group of the People of Sunnah for Preaching and Jihad”. An odd omission for a documentary on this same group.

The narrative runs that this group are not muslims but merely criminals with no agenda other than crime for no particular reason and their actions run contrary to islamic teaching. A point their muslim family of victims makes directly to the VICE reporter, but there is no attribution given to these teachings which Boko Haram is running afoul of. It could also be noticed that his family was allowed to leave because they were muslim. The Christians never seem to get that sort of mercy. Typically if you cannot prove you muslim credentials to one of these monsters you don’t get to give an interview to VICE news. You get killed.

The narrative also runs in part 1 that the problem may be because Christians control the part of the country that has natural resources and the wealth is not distributed to the muslim parts of the country. It fails to mention however whether or not the islamic side of Nigeria actually educates any of its citizens in anything that might generate wealth or whether islamic law forbids such education, which is what the name Boko Haram, specifically means. ‘Western Education is Forbidden’. But the idea is, to create doubt in the viewer as to the fact that Boko Haram is a muslim terrorist group seeking to replace democracy and secular law with the sharia and hudud (Islamic punishments) and that the motives are entirely based on islam and islamic doctrine, as the kidnapping and enslaving of non-muslim women wherever they can, illustrates rather clearly as slavery is a big part of Islamic culture and dogma.

In Part II they manage to interview a soldier who explains that they, Boko Haram, attacked churches, but they are not really muslims but just devils. Still no footage of the attacks on Churches or the stated goals of Boko Haram as creators of an islamic state in Africa, despite the internet being so full of this material you need delouser to avoid seeing it. The message that Christians and muslims are united against BK is repeated like a Buddhist mantra but with no actual evidence to support it.

In part III the soldiers they show at the start use terms like “grace” and “father” and “heart” during prayers, which VICE calls a “toast” while drinking and smoking cigarettes. This leads me to suspect they may not be muslims. A lot of the rest of it is tactical minutia. It does look like the Nigerian Army has some reactive armor on their tanks though. Thats gotta help as well as some serious air power. And if you want to know what happened to your old Ramones T shirt, you get to find out at the end.

But one thing is for sure. VICE is now part of the effort to propagandize the public into the Obama/Cameron plan of reinventing islam with the hope that either muslims will believe it and stop following islamic examples or at least the public will not act up and make their governments uncomfortable as we are all slowly being forced to give up our own rights and freedoms and customs and accept a sharia one.

 

 

 

 

 

Germany: The Political Exploitation of a Murder

Posted on by

An original article by Carpe Diem:

When Khaled Idris Bahray, a 20-year-old Muslim ‘refugee’ from Eritrea, was found stabbed to death in the courtyard of his housing estate in Dresden on January 13, it didn’t take long for the media to link the murder to the local PEGIDA movement. Now, as his 26-year-old roommate Hassan Saleh, also a Muslim refugee from Eritrea, has confessed the murder, the media have become quiet.

Right after Khaled Idris Bahray had been found dead in the courtyard of his flat, the media and the left launched a massive smear campaign against PEGIDA. For them it was obvious that he must have been killed by those ‘far right Neo-Nazis’.

 

Some events of the last days:

  • When police arrived at the scene, they found the body of the young man lying on his back, with blood coming out of his nose and mouth. An autopsy was immediately conducted, as MOPO24, a local newspaper, reported the very same day. Waiting for the results, police correctly said that they had no evidence for a murder at that time. However, for MP Volker Beck (Greens party) investigations took too long. Still assuming that it was racist murder, he lodged a complaint for an investigation into the possible obstruction of justice, and wrote on twitter:

“I have no understanding for the negligent approach of the investigation authorities.”

Also see International Business Times

  • Meanwhile, the media had started their smear campaign against PEGIDA. There was hardly any article not linking the death of Khaled Idris Bahray to the movement. This article from the ‘Guardian’ is just an example. There were many articles like this in the German media:
  • When the murderer, 26-year-old roommate of the victim, Hassan Saleh, hadn’t been taken into custody at that time, he still lived among the other refugees. He didn’t just meet Dresden’s major Helma Orosz there, but he also gave interviews to the press:

“ ’We are so afaid,’ says 26-year-old Hassan Saleh who had shared a room with Bahray. In Eritrea they had dreamed of the freedom in Germany and of safety, but since they were here, they are scared. Since they are here, there is ‘Pegida’. Khaled’s friends don’t understand what exactly these rallies mean, but they feel: They are not welcome here.”

A few more data points. England, justice and islam

Posted on by

I posted an article yesterday with a story about a couple of people who baconated a mosque and got a year in jail for their efforts even though the only damage done was one offended janitor. And as he was a muslim, we can never know exactly how offended he really was as they just don’t make instruments that sensitive at the current state of technology. (Look for a new iPhone app and sensor coming out with the iPhone 9)

Since I wrote that article a few more data points have come in. I thought it would be a worthy public service to anyone who is considering visiting the newly minted sharia state of Anglostan to let them know what they can actually expect from the judicial system, rather than what they might fondly remember as the former basis of the British judicial system, clearly no longer in effect. It is my deep hope that the good folks at Liberty GB will actually embark on a proper study of comparative sentencing, as this is more than a matter of curiosity, it is a matter of central dogma of the state itself. But until they do, and until they publish their results, here are a few interesting cases from memory and with the help of Liberty GB’s Tim Burton.

1. Muslim girls kick the crap out of a white British girl calling her racist epithets such as “White slag” and worse, are let go scot free by a judge who determined that because in theory muslims aren’t supposed to drink, that these girls therefore must not be used to drinking, and therefore this behaviour was the consequence of drinking while muslim. Or or something very much to that effect.

2. This link is a kind of analysis of this issue as well, but details several very similar ‘crimes’ and punishments depending on the religion of the perpetrator. It is worth popping over and having a look. Below, the immediately relevant bit however:

poppy-mosque-protest

3. Racist ex-soldier who stuck a pig’s head to mosque gates in ‘revenge’ for extremists burning poppies is jailed for four months

(Part of the trick to unfairly jailing those who are against Islamic manifest destiny appears to be labeling them as racist. Adding a thought crime to the actual victimless actions seems to be enough to allow this kind of skewed sentencing it seems)

4. Lord Ahmed jailed for sending texts while driving before fatal crash

This guy actually killed someone while driving, apparently while texting someone. He was sentenced to 12 WEEKS in jail and told he would serve 6 weeks of them in custody, the rest at home. Subsequent to that he railed that it was a Jewish conspiracy that he was sentenced to any time at all. I’m not sure how much remorse he felt for the kafir he killed though. But to be entirely fair, its quite possible that in this instance it is not favoring muslims so much as its a classic example of both British and Canadian political class elitism. Say what you want about the USA but at any given time they have over 100 elected representatives in jail for committing crimes while Canada, far more corrupt than the US is, never has any politicos been put in custody at all and as far as I know never even had to give back stolen money. So it could be just that at work in Lord Ahmed’s case.

But I doubt it. Lord Ahmed served only 16 days of his sentence behind bars. His victim as far as I have been able to determine, is still dead.

5. Man fined for East End anti-gay stickers

 

gayfreezoneAn 18-year-old Muslim man has been fined for posting homophobic stickers around London’s East End.

Mohammed Hasnath, 18, of Leamouth, Tower Hamlets, was arrested last month at his homeand represented himself in court today. He pleaded guilty to the offence and was fined £100 plus £85 costs and a £15 victim surcharge.

 

To be clear, a muslim who put up posters claiming that no homosexuals are allowed in this area, and which has a pretty open subtext, no actually direct text suggesting punishment for being homosexual, and if one reads the islamic punishment for homosexuality, its in fact death. This guy got a £200.00 fine. He was making a general threat to punish people, possibly with death, for being gay, which is something which is not only legal in England but more and more looks like its mandatory.

Meanwhile, 2 people, a teenager and a man in his 30s are going to do a year in jail for offending a muslim at a mosque with a couple of strips of bacon.

If you are planning to visit Europe may I suggest Bulgaria, The Czech republic or Denmark? As far as I can tell, those nations still have remnants of the enlightenment and may allow you to enjoy basic individual liberties and get home without a criminal record.

Thank you Tim Burton of Liberty GB for the help on this as well as James from the comments and ML on the original post.

Post script: Fines for egg-throwing students who screamed ‘oi, Jews’

In the dock at Willesden Magistrates Court were Mohammed Khalfia and Mohammed Jawad, both from Wembley, Haider Al-Fardan from Kingsbury and Aimen Mohamed from Colindale.

[…] the court heard from two Jewish women and a 14-year-old boy who said they had been targeted and that the accused had shouted “Oi, Jews,” and “f***ing Jews” as they hurled the eggs.

 

Austrian TV presenter calls Geert Wilders a “Nazi“

Posted on by

 

Was it just a slip of the tongue, or was it an intentional defamation of Geert Wilders?

On May 22nd, presenter of Austrian’s TV channel “Plus 4”, Norbert Oberhauser (picture), called Geert Wilders and other EU-sceptic politicians “National Socialists” or briefly “Nazis” on his show “Guten Abend Österreich” (Good evening Austria).

It is just unacceptable to defame the famous Dutch politician and leader of the Party for Freedom (PVV), Geert Wilders, as a National Socialist, since he is known as a great friend of Israel. If you disagree with Mr Norbert Oberhauser, you can contact Plus 4 TV:

I would like to add, that Geert Wilders falls politically into the category of classical liberal and would have been called a pinko commie’ by much of the US mainstream of the 1950s for his defense of gay rights and Jewish people. To call him a Nazi is the height of deception. Eeyore]

UPDATE on murder of 4 people at Jewish Museum in Brussels.

Posted on by

Don’t even bother. They have a man in custody, they have video footage of the attack. They are looking for a second suspect but as usual there is no description of the killers nor does anyone even ask who they are or what they looked like. For all we know the second killer, who soon I wager they will announce never existed as that seems to be the pattern, is on his way to kill more people somewhere else but no one can defend themselves as they have no idea who to look out for.

What exactly has happened to the world when people are no longer entitled to the basic information they need to survive and the media will not even ask? The BBC doesn’t even bother to mention that the person is thought to be of terrestrial origins for that matter. All the media acts like the information is irrelevant. This link is from 8 minutes ago and I have no idea why the BBC even bothered to issue this update when there is no actual new information in it. Just the illusion that they are informing us. 

Journalism now leftist-Islamic propaganda in the UK

Posted on by

Check out this article from the Birmingham Mail.

The actual event is that someone drove a car at speed into a crowd of 14 men, apparently targeting them all because they belonged to the EDL but doing a lot of physical harm to one man who is the leader of the Sikh division of the English Defense League.If you read the article however, the entire thing is vilification of the EDL with barely a word about the serious crime that was committed, the attempted murder or injury of 14 people because the driver or whoever he represents does not agree with the message of the EDL.

In the article, it goes on to vilify the EDL thusly:  “The EDL play on the historical animosity that exists between some sections of the Sikh and Muslim community”. The article drips with contempt for the EDL at this point.

However it utterly fails to explain why that ‘historical animosity’ exists. I suspect it has something to do with the Islamic attempts to exterminate Hindus and Sikhs from the face of the earth on numerous occasions. But I would have to look that up to be sure. Something about General Tamerlan perhaps.

The article continues: “No doubt the EDL will use this incident to portray themselves as victims.”

If having a car drive into your group as an attempt to kill or maim you does not make you a victim then the UK has moved from Orwellian to Kafkaesque. Do the authors of this leftist propaganda rag not understand that once they create this kind of targeted attack form of journalism that it can and will be pointed at them as soon as the right variable changes? Ownership, person who funds it, government etc? This kind of ‘reporting’ is an atrocity and a crime on the public no matter who it favors. Human beings, and dogs for that matter, make choices based on available information. When you deceive them, you rob them of the right of free will.

Two men have already been arrested, but not named, that allegedly drove the vehicle. Is it because UK law forbids naming a suspect until formally arraigned? Doubtful as non-Muslims are outed by the press the moment they are suspected if memory serves. Or is it because if the two are muslims it changes the equation of the slant this article shows. Either way, the people of the free world would do well to start learning the basics of determining what and what does not constitute information.
