On the 14 July 2016, Jour de la Bastille, in Nice, an Arab Muslim "Refugee" from Tunisia, mowed down the festive crowds who were celebrating Bastille Day on the "Promenade des Anglais", one of the most beautiful Promenades on the Côte d'Azur. He drove a rented truck into them, killing 86 and injuring 500.
First on the scene of this carnage to help were the Firefighters. In this video two of these brave men give, what I think, is a most poignantly understated account of their 14 July 2016.
It has been reported that George Clooney is moving back to the US because of "Security Concerns" in Italy.
If you feel like I do about Hollywood "Activist" George Clooney, this virtue-signalling, hypocritical.......(I'll leave the delightfully uncontrolled descriptors to the delectable Paul Joseph Watson) - then, when watching this video, you will punch the air with your fists and chant:
The article which I have translated below is taken from the July issue of COMPACT. I am surprised that the iron grip of Merkel's Censors has not been able to shut this brave Magazine down - it could not be for lack of trying. If you read German I highly recommend this fascinating Magazine which manages to be intelligent and make some complex ideas accessible without dumbing them down. I'm a subscriber and am not paid for what might be considered an ad.
If, like me, you are on line quite a bit, you will have seen the insults levelled at "German Men": "Why don't they defend their women", "they are wimps", "no balls" etc. Here is an article by Istvan Florian, who has been working in the security sector for many years. His Defence of German Men sounds credible to me.
Are we all Wimps?
The latest scapegoat chased through the village, is the German Man: they call him "cowardly and weak", unable to protect his women. But the German Man is neither a coward nor is he weak. He is simply not prepared for the civil war that has begun since the borders opened.
For decades, we lived in a relatively peaceful country. The policeman looked after peace and order. There was no barbaric right of the stronger, the state's monopoly of power was respected, in short: we lived under civilised conditions. Some still remember: As a German, one came almost never into contact with extreme violence.
There were moral boundaries and unwritten laws of Honor. If a disagreement went beyond verbal strife, it resulted, at worst, in a brawl which often ended with the opponents shaking hands after a short exchange of blows, burying the hatchet. A lost tooth, a broken nose would be the worst outcome.
THE KNIFE AS AN ARGUMENT
But these times are over. We are now living in a society in which nothing is valid any longer that, for decades, was normal. Where once fighting children could be called to order by any pensioner, old people today must expect to be pushed down and, while on the ground, be beaten up some more. When once a teacher received a certain respect from his pupils, today he must fear to be confronted by their family members after the lessons and get threats against his life and limb. It is no longer possible for a man to ask a pest to stop harassing his wife without risking his life. Dispute over a parking lot? Be careful: this could put your life in danger. In short, the smallest disagreement can turn into a struggle for life and death in an instant.
The legal path is also blocked. If one reports one of these types, his attorney can view your file and so get access to your residential address - "Isch weiss, wo Dein Haus wohnt" (in broken German: "I know where your house is"). Even policemen, who are called to testify in court,will suddenly lose their memory and can so no longer make any statements - in fact, they are afraid for their lives and that of their loved ones. What can the simple citizen do ? Should he be bolder than the police?
Reproaching German men to be overwhelmed by this sudden regression into the laws of the jungle borders on hypocrisy. Who would call it cowardice or lack of civil courage, if an office clerk or a bus driver, suddenly transplanted into a war zone, was helpless in the face of naked violence?
No, the German man is not weak, nor is he a coward.
If he were cowardly and weak, he would do, like many of those foreign to our culture do: excluxively seek out weaker opponents, only hunt down individuals in packs, and use the knife at every opportunity. The German man has Honor and decency and is overwhelmed by such brutal attacks. So far, he would be ashamed to act in the ways the enemy tries to impose on him.
Do we want this to change? Do we want German men to always carry a knife or better still a shotgun in their pockets - ready to use them at any moment? Is this supposed to become indeed our new ideal? In which case the people would have to get the right to arm themselves. Vigilante groups would shoot up like mushrooms. If the executive does not want this, it should take immediate measures to protect us.
How long can a state deny its citizens a realistic chance of self-defence yet abandon them at the same time?

Here is the article in its original German:
Sind wir alle Weicheier ?
Die neueste Sau, die durchs Dorf getrieben wird, ist der deutsche Mann: Er sei feige und schwach, nicht einmal seine Frauen koenne er beschuetzen. Doch der deutsche Mann ist weder feige noch schwach. Er ist schlicht nicht vorbereitet auf den Buergerkrieg, der seit der Grenzoeffnung begonnen hat.
Ueber Jahrzehnte hinweg lebten wir in einem relativ friedlichen Land. Der Schutzmann sorgte fuer Ruhe und Ordnung. Ein barbarisches Recht des Staerkeren gab es nicht, das Machtmonopol des Staates wurde respektiert. Kurz: Es waren zivilisierte Verhaeltnisse. Mancher erinnert sich noch: Man kam als Deutscher so gut wie nie mit extremer Gewalt in Kontakt.
Es gab moralische Grenzen und ungeschriebene Gesete der Ehre. Ging eine Meinungsverschiedenheit einmal ueber verbalen Streit hinaus, kam es schlimmstenfalls zu einer Rauferei, die nicht selten damit endete, dass sich die Kontrahenten nach einem kurzen Schlagabtausch wieder die Haende schuettelten und das Kriegsbeil begruben. Ein verlorener Zahn, eine gebrochene Nase, das war dann auch schon das Aeusserste.
DAS MESSER ALS ARGUMENT
Doch diese Zeiten sind vorbei. Wir leben jetzt in einer Gesellschaft, in der nichts mehr von dem gilt, was jahrzehntelang Normalzustand war. Konnten balgende Kinder einst von jedem Rentner zur Ordnung gerufen werden, muessen die Alten heute damit rechnen, niedergestossen und, am Boden liegend, weiter traktiert zu werden. Genoss ein Lehrer einst einen gewissen Respekt von seinen Schuelern, muss er heute befuerchten, von deren Familienmitglieern nach dem Unterricht gestellt und an Leib und Leben bedroht zu werden. Es ist doch gar nicht mehr moeglich, dass ein Mann einen Antaenzer bittet, seine Frau nicht zu belaestigen, ohne dass er damit sein Leben riskiert. Streit um einen Parkplatz? Vorsicht, Lebensgefahr ! Kurz: Jede noch so kleine Auseinandersetzung kann sich von einem Augenblick zum anderen in einen Kampf um Leben und Tod verwandeln.
Auch der juristische Weg ist versperrt. Zeigt man einen dieser Typen an, kann dessen Anwalt Akteneinsicht und damit Zugriff auf die eigene Wohnanschrift bekommen - "Isch weiss, wo Dein Haus wohnt". Selbst Polizisten, die als Zeugen vor Gericht aussagen sollen, verlieren hin und wieder plötzlich das Gedaechtnis und koennen darum keine Aussage mehr taetigen - in Wahrheit haben sie Angst um ihr Leben oder das ihrer Liebsten. Was soll der unbedarfte Buerger da noch tun ? Soll er mutiger sein als die Polizei ?
Den deutschen Maennern nun vorzuwerfen, dass sie mit dem ploetzlichen Rueckfall in die Gesetzmaessigkeiten des Dschungels ueberfordert sind, grenzt an Heuchelei. Wer wuerde es Feigheit oder mangelnde Zivilcourage nennen, wenn ein Bueroangestellter oder Busfahrer, ploetzlich in ein Kriegsgebiet versetzt, angesichts der nackten Gewalt hilf- und ratlos waere ?
Nein, der deutsche Mann ist nicht schwach, und er ist auch nicht feige.
Vielmehr waere er feige und schwach, wuerde auch er sich - wie viele der Kulturfremden - nur schwaechere Gegner suchen, nur in Gruppen Jagd auf Einzelne machen und bei jeder Gelegenheit zum Messer greifen. Der deutsche Mann hat Ehre, er hat Anstand und ist mit solch brutalen Attacken ueberfordert. Noch schaemt er sich, so zu handeln, wie es ihm der Gegner aufzwingen will.
Wollen wir, dass sich das aendert? Wollen wir, dass deutsche Maenner immer ein Messer oder besser eine Schusswaffe in der Tasche tragen - bereit, diese jeden Augenblick zu benutzen? Soll das tatsaechlich unser neues Idealbild werden ? Dann muesste das Volk konsequenterweise auch das Recht zur Bewaffnung erhalten. Buergerwehren wuerden wie Pilze aus dem Boden schiessen. Wenn die Exekutive das nicht will, sollte sie schleunigst Massnahmen zu unserem Schutz ergreifen. Wie lange kann ein Staat seinem Buerger die realistische Chance auf Selbstverteidigung verwehren und ihn gleichzeitig im Stich lassen?

These two videos are short, and their quality is probably inferior even to Obama's reign, but I think they show so well the real difference between the two presidents. (Incidentally, if they put me next to Adolf Erdogan and placed an umbrella in my hands, I would be tempted to hit him over the head with it.)
The poster of this tweet put it well, I think:
"When the President of the U.S. picks up the fallen cover of a Marine and places it back on his head, you know you elected the right man."
Angela Merkel describes those whom I regard as "real" Germans merely as "those who have lived here longer" but considers her newly, illegally imported "guests" as "those who joined recently", and who, according to her, are just as German as "those-who-have-lived-here-longer" !
Merkel calls the Germans: "Those who have lived here longer"
"This statement is a mockery of the Sovereign who elected her and whom she intends to do away with..."writes Michael Mannheimer, a blogger and writer and certainly a thorn in the eyes of Merkel who seems to have a Stasi-like grip on Free Speech and the number of information crumbs the Volk is allowed to access. I understand they have tried to silence Mr. Mannheimer already several times but, like a modern-day Socrates this "gadfly" is hanging in there.
Merkel juxtaposed her description of Germans to that she has chosen for her personal 1.5 million migrants (so far) as "die, die neu dazugekommen sind" (those, who joined up recently).
Mannheimer's Article (in German) published late last year, is well worth reading.
So, Germans are rich, yes ? Well here is a video that shows you some of those Germans that Merkel dismisses as "those who have lived here a little longer".
Its source is the Deutsche Welle, a State Media, hence of a clear conformist left bent and regime-promoting. But here they really did a surprisingly good job with an objectivity you normally don't find among their propagandist pieces. Not even one Merkel-Refugee in sight. Perhaps the reason for that is that Merkel-Refugees are not homeless in Merkel's Germany, unlike those "who have lived there longer".
This story made me, somewhat, angry. To put my anger into an acceptable tame-it-box, I showed it to a non-German, very analytical friend. All he would state is the obvious: "It did not touch me the same way as it did you". Doh !
So, here I am, left with my strange anger. I let a bit of it out by mentioning "Merkel" a lot in my editiorial.
Anselm's fate touched me the most. He (and Franziska Dinter) too might remember this old number of Freddy Quinn:
I have never hidden the deep contempt in which I hold the racist Pigs Through which the "UN" of today has become. Looking at this video below, they can add yet another activity to a long list of the same kind: complicity in the Genocide of Yazidis (and Christians).
Oh, and nor will I forget this Pope's (Francis) very media-guided visit to Greece, to "save some refugees" and bring them to Italy, cameras blazing, of course. Among the three chosen ones was a Christian family whom the media floozy left behind at the very last minute. When found out, the "excuse" from the Vatican was that "their identity papers had not been completed". It was a lie. Wherever these Christian refuges have ended up, I don't know, but the Muslim families chosen by this Pope are, on last reports "doing very well".
Following the 'vehicular' attack outside a London mosque
on June 19, Egyptian TV host Youssef Al-Husseini with courage and an insight rarely seen on our TV screens these days asked and answered his own rhetorical question:
"Why do they hate us ? !
If they didn't, there would be something mentally wrong with them..."
And he continued:
"Muslims have contributed nothing to the West except slaughter, massacres and terror attacks, and you still expect them to LOVE US ?!"
He also debunks to a large extent the tales of all those "enormous contributions to Science, Literature, Philosophy" Muslims have, allegedly, made.
A video well worth watching, despite the effort it takes to read the sub-titles, and thanks to Vlad Tepes for finding it.

Melanie Phillips, British journalist, author and public commentator offers an eye-opening perspective on where anti-Israel ideas and sentiments originate. This impressive Cassandra foretold the future of London over 10 years ago by coining the name "Londonistan".
On one point though I disagree with the formidable Miss Melanie Phillips: She says "there is nothing remotely right-wing about standing up for truth against lies, justice against injustice, freedom against those who would snuff out freedom and human life".
Well I say there is! You will not see many "right-wingers" at Jew-Hatred marches under Terrorist flags chanting "death to Jews", like just those last few days for Al Qud day, nor will you see too many Conservatives under the "Palestinian flags" chanting "Palestine will be free, from the river to the sea", which, if you know a minimum of Israel's geography is the same. I strongly suggest, that today's version of Jew-hatred comes, of course from those who follow the edicts of the Koran, but they are enthusiastically assisted, directly and indicrectly, by the "Left Wingers", Labor, Greens, Antifa, etc. The Left's default position of moral posturing (moral signalling in modern parlance) does not a good people make.
By declaring my support for Israel (too often and too loudly according to some) I will proudly accept the label of "right winger"!
Vlad, when posting the two videos below introduced them like so:
"Oz-Rita brings us a singular juxtaposition of two videos, showing the diverse attitudes towards Jews by the ruling Merkel party in Germany, (The CDU) and the AfD, who post-modernists insist are Nazis when, in fact, it is the Post-Modernists who share their root philosophy with the Nazis.".
Being very angry at what Merkel has done to my old country, my approach will have more ad hominem undertones. Here you will see two German women politicians, one with class and one without. Lets start with the "classy" one. An aristocratic pedigree does not automatically assure you class, but Beatrix von Storch as plenty of both. She is porte-parole of- and represents her party, the "Alternative für Deutschland" (AfD) in the EU parliament. The AfD is a much maligned, relatively new, conservative and patriotic party and with quite a few people like Beatrix von Storch in their ranks, they offer a real alternative and the only hope I see for Germany at the moment.
.
And then we have Angela Merkel, erstwhile 'girlfriend' of Adolf Erdogan, then of Obama, now cougar to Emmanuel Macron - politically speaking of course. In the video below she confirms her bad taste in men by not only snuggling up to Abbas, but by betraying Israel and so the Jewish people.
The second part of this video (in Arabic) is not yet translated/subtitled, however, Abbas mentions the word "Apartheid" which I think might be an indication of what he has to say.
Merkel seems to have acquired an anti-Israel perspective - a concession to her (new) masters, whoever they are ?
And last:Did she really say:
"...I have said again and again that the settlements in the occupied territories are a violation of international law..." ?
This new documentary on "The Unpalatable Facts" of Halal Certification has just rolled off the presses (or what ever documentaries roll off these days). It came to my in box from the Q Society of Australia, a group which I hold in great respect and features people whose courage in the face of all sort of attacks I admire.
“Never underestimate the intelligence of your readers, but never overestimate their knowledge” so, please, pass this documentary onto your friends, enemies (*) and other contacts.
Here is a little sample of what I take to be "Halal" in its natural habitat:
WARNING ! Now we are coming to the truly HARAM part of this post: HUMOUR
(*) "Don't speak because it's safe, speak because it is necessary"
First a little explanation as to what "Al Quds" day is. This one might sound light-hearted for such a nasty call to genocide, but I think it still packs a punch:
I have written about this brave woman, Kay Wilson, before. Here she had a message for Sadiq Kahn, the islamist Mayor of London:
And then there were petitions, I signed some of them too, but what can you expect from an Islamist mayor who until the day before his election paraded his wife in civilised dress yet could not wait even for a modest interval before showing his true colors on the very day after the election. Not only did he wrap up his submissive muslima completely, but he chose as place for his "coronation" a CHRISTIAN church - when all his predecessors had correctly chosen the Town Hall for what should not be a "religious" function. I'm reminded of the dogs who, I'm told, mark their "territories" by "watering" their conquered spots.
Not only did the "march" take place, the Jew Haters were actually allowed to carry Terrorists flags and call for the death of Jews.
I dont think that the saying "All that it takes for Evil to florish, is for good men to do nothing" spoke of the Islamist Mayor of London Sadiq Kahn, the nasty Jew-Hater Jeremy Corbyn, and the commissioner of metropolitan Police when mentioning "Good Men" - I think hese 3 are actually batting for the side of Florishing Evil. And while I'm at it, I might even throw the (at best) spineless Theresa May into the mix.
In April this year, in the middle of the Presidential Election campaign, a Muslim threw Sarah Halimi, a little 65 y.o. Jewish lady out of the window of her 3rd floor Paris apartment to the shouts of Allah-U-Akbar.
He had tortured her for more than an hour, according to witness reports, her neighbours heard her screams, and the police who had been called to the building were doing "nothing" but "waiting" for the riot police. The quarter in which that happened, Belleville is very close to the centre of Paris and used to be a vibrant centre with many of its residents being of Jewish background until about 10 years ago, when communities of Arabo/Sub-Saharan Muslims moved in. Sarah Halimi, a doctor, had been living in this flat for 30 years. She and her daughter had been insulted by the family of the Muslim killer as "dirty Jews" etc. They even have a word in France for throwing someone out of a window to kill him/her:
"Defenestration"
Semantics aside, one could expect that such a barbaric act would be "big" news. YET....this murder was given the totally silent treatment by the media and the only politician accusing this anti-Semitic murder was Marine Le Pen. In Germany we have a word for this media device: "totschweigen" - kill it with silence.
Whether this media- and political silencing was caused by anti-Semitism, Islamophilia or electoral strategy, I don't know, although I would tip the two latter ones.
I will get back to the murder of Sarah Halimi (no relation to ILAN Halimi other than they were both Jewish) in more detail, but I wanted to give you this quick run-down because the islamist murder of Sarah Halimi was the catalyst to the discussion in the video below. The program from which I have extracted this video is called "On n'est pas Couché" (ONPC). It's one of the most popular late Saturday Night TV shows with some pretence towards "intelligence", it runs until way past midnight and - as all other "popular" entertainment programs - it too has become pretentiously "leftist", the default position of the non-thinking herd. However, I must say, I was rather impressed by the exchange:
What, indeed, have the Jews ever done to you ?
And before I pass to what my friend Vlad calls my "gimmick", ie the piece of music, I would like to shake the protagonists and ask them: Why don't you dare mentioning, let alone name the beast in the room ! ? Neither the journalists, nor the Jewish Actor, who had a sympathetic platform for once, mentioned the source of this new Jew Hatred. "Islam" seems to have become a sacred cow, and like a nice little conformist, he talks about the softer targets like Catholics, and Spanish Inquisition and Wotnot. Arrrrrrghhhhhh !!!!!
//end of rant mode//
I have but two things in common with the following poet and song-man: I'm not Jewish, I'm not a poet, I'm not a singer, I'm not good at my guitar, I have not received a Nobel Price...
BUT
I am a "Gemini" and I'm on the side of Israel, just like Robert Zimmermann whom you might know under the name of Bob Dylan:
I find this piece of music "heavenly", but coming from humans, it does contain the proverbial Persian Flaw.
The tradition of Persian Flaw originated, not surprisingly in Persia, the Iran of today. Persian tribe members worked together to weave carpets that would tell their stories. They believed however that only God was perfect in all aspects and to show this, the carpet weavers would intentionally place flaws or mistakes in the carpet, a tradition that survives today and is also practised by the Amish in their Quilt making.
So, what is that "Persian Flaw" I find in this video?
Well, for me it is the picture of the ever media-conscious Pope Francis, whom I consider an opportunistic, extreme left, islamophile political hack that swims in the effluent of current political fashion. When he went to Greece a couple of years ago - cameras blazing of course - to "rescue" his allotment of "refugees", he refused to take the desperate Christian family and took 3 Muslim families instead. When found out, the excuse was that their papers had not been ready, denied later by people who spoke up for the Christian refugee family.
But these voices, singing in the language Jesus spoke, are worth putting up with the Persian Flaw.
