Postings to this site


As must be obvious to all readers, this site is no longer benefiting from regular updates.  I’m afraid his is due to changes in my personal life.  The recent addition to my family of a treasured, but very demanding young person, together with the fact that, like most people in the current environment,  I have no option other than to hold down an increasingly challenging full time job mean that I no longer have the free time I once had to devote to blogging.

I also have a partner who has first call on what free time I have, that is, when I am not too exhausted to think! 

I am reluctant to close down the blog altogether, as I feel I still have something to contribute, and that the archive of my previous articles continues to have some value.

However, I regret that for the time being postings to this site will become occasional rather than regular.

I hope that readers will continue to visit from time to time to check for updates.

I will, of course, continue where possible to report on the ongoing attacks on the South African farming community.
                 

A Triumph indeed, but not as they claim

 Team GB - Medal winners

Apart from the opening and, almost as ghastly, closing ceremonies, which, unlike the contests themselves, were under the complete control of the media and a tiny left wing elite and were therefore more of the same mind numbing propaganda which now passes for entertainment in this country, it would be difficult to argue that the 2012 Olympic games was not a tremendous success for Britain. At least it was a success in terms of the performance of our athletes and the behaviour of the British public.

One can not compare the 1908 games when we last won as many medals, but only 28 nations participated, with the games which have just taken place, hence it is fair to state that Britain has just had it’s most successful Olympics of all times.

However, the success has not been in the form which the establishment would have us believe. According to the opening and closing raves, the media narrative and most politically correct politicians, the Olympics was a triumph for multiculturalism. However, a true analysis of what actually happened, and, of course, of the medals table itself, tells a very different story, and one which must have been quite infuriating for those attempting to promote the official line.

Of our tally of 29 gold medals four were shared between three black athletes and one further gold went to Jessica Ennis, girl of mixed race origins.  By far the vast majority of “Team GB” medal winners, at gold and all other levels, were, as a BBC executive would no doubt describe them “hideously white”

As was to be expected, despite making up less than 14% of the winners, black athletes received at least 40% of the TV coverage and were represented in a significantly higher percentage in the opening and closing graphics accompanying any sports show during the games.  However, irrespective of how the media tried to play it, the split between the elitist fairy tale and reality has seldom been so marked.

Indeed, the multicultural fantasy did not only fail in terms the medal count, the myth that “we are all the same” was exposed as the lie it is in the events which took place.

Black athletes featured strongly, albeit not exclusively in the boxing ring and on the track where they held preeminent positions in most activities involving running, but were completely non existent from virtually all other sports.  Where were the black swimmers, divers, cyclists, rowers, sailors, tennis players, riders and shooters?  In the British team there were none.

It one were to remove the runners, boxers and the little Tiquando chap who was selected instead of the world champion on account of his colour, out of the equation then the medal winners would resemble slightly younger versions of the overwhelmingly white space scientists who recently landed the explorer Curiosity on Mars, except that there were a few Orientals among the scientists.

We are different, we excel in different things, we fail in different things, we are not the same, and the Olympic games showed it.  It also became clear that we think differently and we want different things
It was not just amongst the athletes where the difference was on display, as was clear in the make up of the crowds at particular events and confirmed when spectators were interviewed white within the crowd were there to cheer on everyone, or so they said, whereas blacks made no bones of the fact they were there to cheer on black athletes. (few ‘British Asians’ seemed to have turned up, at least not to watch the British team)  Behind the microphones, white commentators spoke of diversity and inclusion, while black  commentators stressed the achievements of black athletes.  Channel Four sports reporter Keme Nzerum, even went so far as to suggest that Britain had done so well largely because other sportsmen and women had “been inspired by the success of Mohammed (Mo) Farah and Jessica Ennis”, despite the fact that a significant number of medals had been won before either of then entered the fray.

It would be churlish not to acknowledge the likable “Mo” Farah’s achievement in winning two gold medals, he did himself and his native Somalia, where I understand his progress was being avidly followed, proud.  However, it cannot be denied, that people of his ethnic back ground and place of origin are genetically advantaged in terms of running abilities.  For that very reason alone, to include him in the British team and view his success as a “British triumph” is in itself a form of cheating.  You might as well put a greyhound in a Labrador race, and call it a fast Labrador.  He’s not British, he’s  Somali and both his victory and medal should have been awarded to Somalia.

Not everyone fell for the attempts to sell “Mo” as national hero, it must have really galled the  assembled ranks of opinion formers to discover that considerably more people tuned in to watch the wonderful Tim Daley’s life reaffirming delight at winning a diving bronze than watched Mo Farah win either of his gold medals. 

It was Tom, the incredible triathlon winning Brownlee brothers, and, of course Bradley (Wiggo) Wiggins, despite his Australian, father who really made most of the nations heart swell with the patriotic pride, so disdained by the Chairman of the BBC.

Contrary to the spin which the establishment are, and will continue to put on the 2012 London Olympics, the truth is that it was not a triumph for the multicultural dream, but an event which exposed racial differences in very stark relief.

Another South African Hate Crime

It was just two sentences long and consigned to what is effectively the “It’s an odd word” section on page 18 of this morning’s London metro. Out of interest I measured the article and it was 1.2 inches by 2.5 inches, and that included the headline ‘Boy 12 “is boiled to death”

That was how one London paper saw fit to report the trial of the three men charged with the torture, rape and murder of the Viana family in October last year.

One can only imagine how many pages the western media would dedicate to the trial of three white South Africans accused of a similar crime. However, in this case in common with 99.9% of all such interracial murders. the victims were white and the accused black. This does not suit the narrative which the old media are determined to follow, and is therefore such cases are embarrassments, which they seek to under play or deliberately fail to report.

 
The three accused Sipho Mbele, David Motaung and Patrick Petrus Radebe, who had worked for the family, smiled and sniggered as the crimes, to which they have confessed were detailed.

The court heard the gang lay in wait for Tony Viana 53, to arrive home, then they attacked him with golf clubs and a panga / machete before tying him up.

Shortly afterwards Mrs Geraldine Viana and the couple’s 12 year old son Amaro returned and were also attacked by the gang. Amaro was also tied up and together with his father was forced to watch while all three men rapedd his mother in turn, restraining her by variously standing on her head or forcing a pillow over her face.

After raping Mrs Viana the gang murdered her and her husband. Such rapes and murders are now commonplace in South Africa, however, what the killers did next was what made this crime particularly heinous.

Amaro Viana had watched as his mother was raped, he has witnessed his parents being slaughtered, he knew the men who did it and could identify them, they decided he had to die.

However, they didn't just kill him, they didn't even show him the mercy of shooting him, execution style through the back of the head, as the killers of three year old WillemienPotgieter did to her after killing her family. Instead the things which took twelve year old Amaro's life took him to the bathroom, filled the bath with scalding hot water and held him under water until he stopped struggling.

As a parting act, the killers disembowled the family dog.

This was no “bungled burglary”, this was no “robbery gone wrong, this was another hate crime, but it was only a white boy they boiled to death, so hate crimes charges were never brought.

White Girl Bleed a Lot - Colin Flaherty interview

The Jamie Glazov Show that will air on Tuesday, July 31, 2012 at 8-9 pm Pacific (11-12 pm EST) on Blog Talk Radio.

This week’s guest is: Colin Flaherty, award-winning writer of White Girl Bleed a Lot whose work has appeared in more than 1000 new sites around the world, including the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times and others.

He is a former ghost writer for a Chairman of the US Commission on Civil Rights and author of White Girl Bleed a Lot: The Return of Racial Violence and How the Media Ignore It.

Boyle's Dream of England


Some while ago, when hearing that Shallow Grave director Danny Boyle had been commissioned to produce the opening ceremony to the London Olympics, I wrote an article in which I imagined what sort of spectacle Boyle might produce.  The result was widely mocked on the troll sites and also slightly less vindictively on Rational Wiki.

However, in an outcome that was beyond satire the result was worse than even I had imagined. Instead of effigies of Obama and Mandela we were presented with the real  life Doreen Lawrence, taking time off from attending court cases which her glowering presence might just influence, and Shami Chakrabarti. Meanwhile Danny Boyle set before us a vision of England which resembled a cross between a multiracial Gormenghast and rap night at the Spearmint Rhino.

All it lacked were the vuvuzlas, or did I miss those?

The only permissible reaction was to rave about how wonderful it was, while any criticism was treated in rather the same way as the Pyongyang authorities might respond to a streaker at the Dear Leader's funeral.

 The old media and the mob of great and good have viciously attacked Conservative MP Aidan Burley for describing the ceremony as “Leftie, multi cultural crap” however, I fail to see how he could be faulted on that description.  The ceremony portrayed a version of British history only recognisable from the prejudiced and distorted perspective of a left wing bigot.  It was aggressively multicultural to the degree of psychosis, and Mr. Burley’s critical assessment that it was crap is one I find hard to argue with.

The show was an example of ideological propaganda of which North Korea or the old Soviet Union would have been proud, and Mr. Burley was entirely correct in pointing it out for what it was.

However, we live in an age where telling the truth is a punishable offence, and I regret that Adrian Burley’s attempts at explaining himself or even apologising will not save him from a vengeful old media and a left desperate to protect its precious but deformed ideology.

One person who long ago gave up apologising or attempting to explain himself is the much maligned historian David Irving, and I invite you to enjoy his intelligent description of Friday night’s macabre cabaret

After having speculated that the queen might come to view the ceremony as one of the low point of her reign, Irving goes on to say:
IN her sixty years' rule she has seen the feckless politicians turn her kingdom from a mono-ethnic wellspring of world civilisation into a drug-crazed, gun-toting, knife-wielding "multi-cultural" cesspit. The British Empire imploded. The BBC television cameras hover lovingly on every Black immigrant face that has been shoe-horned, heedless of chronology, into the scenes that Boyle has devised -- including the top-hatted 19th Century capitalist factory-owners, and even the Suffragettes. Black children dance around 19th Century English Maypoles. Boxer, George Orwell's heroic carthorse in Animal Farm, would be scratching his forelock: didn't remember them, somehow. On the far side of the arena, meanwhile, the Empire Windrush berths to orchestrated cheers, bringing its first toxic cargo of Caribbean doom.
[What a come-down for the good ole Windrush. Launched in Hamburg in 1930 as the Monte Rosa, she became one of Hitler's Kraft durch Freude fleet of cruise-liners for German workers, served as a fleet auxiliary to the Tirpitz battle group in the 1940s, then heroically evacuated refugees from East Prussia before the Soviet onslaught in 1945.]
After the first hour, the constant and inappropriate interpolation of Black faces in this London Olympics ceremony becomes offensive, and probably as much so to them as to us, the Whites. There is brief relief when the outside-broadcast cameras go on to other celebrations in Northern Ireland, Wales, and Scotland, where there is not a single Black face for the BBC cameras to linger joyously upon.

No doubt they will be digitally inserted later, just as Black faces, looking remarkably like Robertson's Marmelade golliwogs, were digitally superimposed on some of Harry Potter's cheering fellow-pupils in the final scene of the first Potter movie.

Frank Ledwidge, Losing Small Wars: British Military Failure in Iraq and Afghanistan

Frank Ledwidge, Losing Small Wars: British Military Failure in Iraq and Afghanistan, Yale University Press, New Haven and London, 2011, viii + pp.267, Notes, bibliography, Index, ISBN 978-0-300-16671-2


I consider it to be the duty of anyone who sees a flaw in the plan not to hesitate to say so

General Einsenhower immediately before General Montgomery’s briefing for Operation Overlord, 15th May 1944


© Frank Ellis 2012 All Rights Reserved



Anger and shame assailed me when I was reading Losing Small Wars: anger with a corrupt Prime Minister (Blair) for the lies used to justify the deployment of British forces to Iraq and Afghanistan and the professional collusion of senior officers and the security services in the dissemination of the lies; and shame for the untold misery inflicted on Iraqi and Afghan civilians, the deaths and maiming of our soldiers and the lies used to comfort their families and to mislead the public. As if this was not bad enough, we are confronted at every turn in these badly judged deployments with far too many examples of incompetent political and military leadership in theatre. With all these failings and the scale of the invasion and occupation in Iraq, and the NATO mission in Afghanistan, Ledwidge’s title hardly does justice to what is revealed. In any case these are hardly ‘small wars’: the lying alone was and remains even now on a mass industrial scale.

If, having read Losing Small Wars, I had to identify the single most important failing about the disastrous British interventions in Iraq and, currently Afghanistan, it would be the failure on the part of the British government and its military advisers to spell out quite clearly why the British armed forces were ever deployed to these two parts of the Middle East. Factor out the obvious lies disseminated by Blair and his political-military clique that Iraq was armed with weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) and that these weapons posed a threat to Britain and there was no justified reason for Britain’s ever having had anything to do with the US-led invasion of Iraq. Bush’s ravings that Saddam Hussein was another Hitler reflect the appalling ignorance of American presidents about the world. Such claims were intended to provide some weak justification for Saddam Hussein’s removal from power. Nevertheless they are pitiful claims. By the standards of Arab leaders Saddam Hussein was averagely repressive. Oil is a factor on the Middle East but did it require that the US and others invade Iraq and inflict such dreadful misery and suffering? If we went there to impose democracy and other Western abstractions then that too has been a catastrophic failure and one that was bound to be in a part of the world where Islam rules. Why do Americans and their too willing British allies not realise that the liberal democracies that evolved in a small part of northern Europe among small groups of racially homogenous peoples cannot be just imposed on what are Third World tribal societies? Here we see a deadly serious failure of imagination, caused by what Pat Buchanan has correctly identified as democratic fundamentalism and which has been made to appear fallaciously plausible by the malevolent ideology of multiculturalism and neo-conservatism.

As for the British Army’s being in Afghanistan, no British politician has yet provided a convincing argument for the deployment. Brown’s claims that British troops in Afghanistan made the UK safer were obvious lies and so obviously clumsy one wonders why he thought he could get away with peddling such nonsense. Equally mendacious are the claims that UK forces are helping the Afghan population to build a better future. Do the Taliban – they are part of the Afghan population – want our help? How do we help people by laying their country waste and imposing utterly alien institutions such as elections and education and undermining the foundations of a tribal society? Other possible reasons for our being there may be related to Iran’s nuclear ambitions and fears about Pakistan’s nuclear weapons (and oil, of course). But even these are not that convincing when trying to find an explanation for why Britain has expended so much blood and treasure. Remove any geo-political considerations and one is left with the interests and rivalries of the three services. Ledwidge refers to remarks made by General Dannatt to a British diplomat that if the British army, with an exit date from Iraq established, did not redeploy its battle groups to Afghanistan, they would be removed in any Strategic Defence Review. Ledwidge also suggests that the British army wanted to go to Helmand to show what it could do and attempt to compensate for its less than glorious performance in southern Iraq. Another factor prompting the deployment was, as always, a desire on the part of senior British politicians and officers to ingratiate themselves with the Americans, to try to rebuild their damaged stock.

Financial crossbreeding.



By August Pointneuf

Politics is that pie slice of human behaviour which can be looked at as behaviour under constraint.

Economics is another pie slice - human behaviour which can be reduced to digital markers. It cannot be regarded as independent of the broad behaviour of humans, and must conform to the behavioural rules of human activity. Because economics can be reduced to mathematics is has another role. It can be used as an instrument to understand complex societal behaviour overall.

*******************************************************************************************************************

The Euro was created in an attempt to “unify” the financial patterns of the diverse groups of Europe. That illustrated the inherent folly of the politicians in the European Union. When a single monetary unit was imposed across a wide spectrum of societies the naive fumbling the political engineers assumed that human behaviour could be permanently changed by diktat.

But they failed to understand that economics was only a small outward feature of overall human behaviour. Finances cannot be manipulated independently of that. The political fatal assumption was that the underlying behavioural variances of different groups and nations could be forced into a universalized “economic” behaviour by imposing a “universal” currency.

From the outset it was not conceptually possible that a Thessalonian goatherd could be expected to behave - socially, culturally and economically - in the fashion of a banker in Bonn. By even attempting to force this, the European Union demonstrated its political gaucherie.

It is true that human humans can be changed by external forces, but only temporally, and only by suppression. Human behaviour is far too intricate and complex to be remodeled by muscle.

It is no coincidence that when the controlling politicians of Soviet Union and the Nazis wished to show their power they used parade-ground disciplined demonstrations of military manoeuvres to express their authority. After the parade the participants, of course, reverted to their previous behaviour.

A universal currency should represent a consistent value to all its users. It should display value parity. But it is an economic truism that the value of a currency should reflect the productivity of the user group, (when compared with a “marker” currency). Said another way any currency is expected to possess”productivity parity”

Currency values are therefore secondary to (and are determined by) the behaviour of the population which issues that currency. It cannot be the other way around: A currency cannot determine the behaviour of a population.

But the nations which were persuaded to use the Euro were highly varied. They had different resource mixes, differing population ages and various levels of socialism. The per capita savings and concepts of wealth (which included the willingness to rely on promissory notes, i.e. borrowing on the premise that it expected those borrowings to be honoured) differed. Most important, productivity differed.

In the complex equation which is Europe, inequality of productivity exists. Therefore the value of the euro (expressed in terms of the interchangeable bonds) cannot reflect equal value parity. Any currency is ultimately committed to reflect the productivity of that individual national culture. Equality of productivity has never (indeed will never) happen in the European Monetary Area because of the very varied societal behavioural patterns of the nations –which are now in stressed bondage.

As a result Greeks pay a higher interest rate to lure purchases. Greek bonds, although denominated in Euro therefore cost less. The Germans, on the other hand, do not need to lure investors; instead investors clamour for their bonds because they believed that their money would be safer with the Germans then it would be with the Greeks.

Since a Greek Euro denominated bond now has less value than German Euro bond, a Greek Euro is now worth less than a German Euro.

Bizarre? Yes, but only because of the bizarre underlying fallacy that the behaviour patterns of different groups could be economically forced into synchrony.

Devaluing money from an unproductive country (i.e. causing its bonds to devalue) moves money from that country (making it more poor) to another (making it more rich).

Now that the Euro has been seen not to hold consistent value parity it can only be doomed to a relentless downward spiral of inconsistent value.

Since it will not be possible to force lasting conformity on the variety of societal groups that use the Euro, the euro must fail.

*******************************************************************************************************************

Any attempt to separate economic behaviour from the broader field of universal human behaviour is folly.

Changes in monetary value of nations put on show the underlying differences in cultural and behaviour as expressed by their diverging "economics".

Since politics and economics overlap they can offer parallel messages. The EU’s predictable failure as a monetary system now presages an equally predictable failure of its political union.

Thus where differing peoples are ordered, by political directives, to behave in “universal” fashion the same catastrophic cascades can be expected to occur politically.

The most important of these political directives, by the European Union, is that varied populations have been ordered to tolerate alien cultural distinctions and “ignore” obvious differences whether these are racial, linguistic, cultural or behavioural. People are forced - by law - to transgress the natural interface between different communities, obliging them to suppress their instinctive, protective reactions.

This social perturbation, if forced union continues, will be the same as shown in the economic model - widening divergences accelerating into an avalanche of chaos. The endpoint will be conflict and societal destruction.

This predicts that ultimately the entire European Union is politically doomed.

*******************************************************************************************************************

End note: the EMA seems never to have learned that while the Germanys were divided (and socio-economically different) the “official” exchange rate was one Ostmark to one Westmark. Reality forced the (empirical and realistic) black-market rate to six inferior Ostmark to one Westmark, Helmut Kohl lured voters in East Germany by promising – misleading to engineer his re-election - that reunification would permit a one-to-one exchange of Marks. This another political legerdemain succeeded only to have repercussions which still reverberate: West Germans continue to pay for that political chicanery.

The Observer in the Gallery


It would be inappropriate to comment on the trial of former England football captain, John Terry, charged with using racially offensive language on the football pitch, whilst the case is still going on.  However, I found it interesting, and a little troubling, to note, that Mrs Doreen Laurence mother of Stephen Lawrence, the martyred saint of the anti-racist cause, felt it appropriate to attend the trial as an observer in the gallery.

The Price of European Immigration

 
By Fjordman

In his 2008 book Et Delt Folk (“A Nation Divided”), The Danish historian and writer Morten Uhrskov Jensen carefully went through publicly available sources. He demonstrated that the opening up of his country for mass immigration was arranged by just part of the population, sometimes in the face of considerable popular opposition.

Roughly speaking, those representing the political and media establishment and the upper classes were in favor of open borders, whereas those from the lower classes were often opposed. This divide is viewed by those from the upper segments of society as caused mainly by racism, prejudice, ignorance and xenophobia.

Since the educated classes enjoyed a virtual hegemony over public debate, they were able to define all opposition as hate and intolerance, exemplified by people such as Pia Kjærsgaard of the Danish People’s Party. The well-to-do themselves rarely lived in areas with many immigrants and could afford to move, at least for a while, if that was needed. They focused on the abstract and allegedly humanitarian aspects of mass migration.

Immigrants are simply referred to as “new countrymen,” who as if by magic always seem to enrich the natives with their presence. In Denmark, multiculturalists have successfully managed to establish the neologism nydansker or “new Danes,” a vibrant new breed of people currently displacing the tired and boring “old Danes.”

For poorer people, immigration was a concrete issue, as immigrants moved into their neighborhoods and went to school with their children. To put it bluntly, for those with money, globalization initially meant that they could travel on holidays to exotic lands and treat the world as their playground. For those who were less well off, it meant that the entire world suddenly moved into their street and took over their children’s local playground.

When the Titanic during her maiden voyage across the Atlantic Ocean struck an iceberg just before midnight on 14 April 1912, the first people who could see the water pouring in were the third-class passengers who happened to be situated closest to the waterline. Meanwhile, the richest passengers at the top were drinking fine cognac long after the ship had started sinking. They didn’t realize what was going on for quite some time, because they were further removed from the physical problem. The poor passengers still unfortunately suffered the highest fatality rates, because the wealthy benefitted from having privileged access to the lifeboats.

We see the same phenomenon on display today, on a much larger scale. Having Islamophobia in Europe today is just as rational as having icebergophobia on board the Titanic in 1912.

Uhrskov Jensen in 2012 published another book, Indvandringens Pris (“The Price of Immigration”) about how much money non-European mass immigration costs his native Denmark. His conclusion is that this cost is great in terms of welfare payments and rising crime combined with declining efficiency and technological innovation.

He shows through carefully researched statistics that only certain Asian immigrants are able to keep up with northern Europeans in the educational system. A few skilled immigrants from India or elsewhere can compete, but mainly those from East Asia: Japanese, Koreans, Chinese, and to some extent Vietnamese. All other non-Western immigrants show lower levels of skill and competence than Europeans, many of them a lot lower.

It should be mentioned here that these numbers correlate quite well with average IQ, where a few other Asians can compete with Europeans, but primarily East Asians. Other ethnic groups cannot do so. Although it has become taboo to say this in the modern Western world, it is well-documented fact that IQ correlates well with economic level, for individuals as well as for nations. The scholar Charles Murray has written much about this.

Former professor Helmuth Nyborg at Aarhus University in Denmark has conducted controversial research on the subject of the genetic inheritance of intelligence. His conclusion is that today’s mass immigration of non-Europeans will lead to an overall marked decline in the average intelligence of the population, and by extension a significant decline in social and economic competence, scientific progress, as well as technological innovation.

For decades Westerners have been told that immigration from less developed Third World countries is “good for the economy” and will “pay for future pensions.” Morten Uhrskov Jensen proves conclusively that this claim is fundamentally wrong, not just regarding Denmark or Scandinavia but for other Western countries, too.

Certain private companies may enjoy short-term benefits by having access to cheap labor and borderless export markets. Socialist parties can cynically import a reliable voter base of backward peoples who overwhelmingly vote for left-wing parties so they can receive generous welfare payments from the high tax payments extracted from the majority population, essentially forcing the white natives to fund their own colonization by foreign peoples.

For the country as a whole, however, non-European mass immigration will in the long run turn out to be an unmitigated social and economic disaster. The direct and indirect costs of today’s immigration policies through rising crime, increased corruption and higher welfare costs plus declining competitiveness, innovation and genetic intelligence add escalating costs to countries already in trouble due to rising deficits and mushrooming debt.

A Danish think tank has estimated that the net cost of immigration is as much as 50 billion kroner every year, and those were cautious estimates. A study from Denmark found that every second immigrant from the Third World – especially from Muslim countries – lacked the qualifications for even the most menial jobs on the labor market.

An ever-growing group of non-Western immigrants in Norway is dependent on welfare. This was the conclusion of a study by Tyra Ekhaugen of the Frisch Centre for Economic Research. Ekhaugen’s research contradicted the common assertion that the labor market depends increasingly on immigrants. The study indicated the reverse.

I have previously written about the costs of mass immigration several times, for instance in the essays When Danes Pay Danegeld:­ The End of the Scandinavian Model or What Does Muslim Immigration Cost Europe?

Yet Erling Lae, a politician for the Conservative Party and then the head of the Oslo city government, warned that the city desperately needs more immigrants and that there would be “complete chaos” without them. In 2005, Trygve G. Nordby, who has worked for the Socialist Left Party, as the director of the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI), claimed that the country needed more unskilled immigrants and should actively seek them out. It later emerged that UDI under Nordby’s rule had virtually run its own private immigration policy in violation of national law in order to give Iraqi immigrants the right to settle in Norway.

Journalist Halvor Tjønn from newspaper Aftenposten, one of the few genuinely critical journalists in Norway who later published a fairly realistic biography of Muhammed, in 2006 cited a report from NHO, the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise. NHO warned that the current immigration policies constitute a serious threat to the country’s economy. Norway is one of the world’s largest exporters of oil and natural gas due to its offshore resources in the North Sea and elsewhere. Yet according to NHO, there is a risk that much of the profit Norway earns from selling oil could be spent on paying welfare for its rapidly growing immigrant population.

These warnings were left unheeded by political leaders, yet the problem hasn’t gone away. In 2012, the business daily Dagens Næringsliv reported that researcher Erling Holmøy from Statistics Norway together with senior advisor Birger Strøm studied how immigration affects government budgets. They concluded that in the long run it would prove to be very costly, stating that mass immigration bears certain similarities to a pyramid scheme.

Author Morten Uhrskov Jensen states that the basic trends are identical in Sweden, France, Germany and the USA. The only reasonable conclusion to be drawn from this is, in his view, to stop all non-Western mass immigration. Yet the Western political elites continue to promote such mass immigration, in spite of mounting evidence that this is greatly harmful to their own countries. This dangerous stubbornness could be due to ideological blindness, or may be because the political elites see their positions, prestige and personal privileges tied to maintaining the status quo.

In the end, the historian Uhrskov Jensen fears that only a massive traumatic event or a major shock to the system can change the direction the Western world is currently headed and reestablish reasonable and sensible immigration policies that are in line with the long-term interests of the European majority population.

 

White Girl Bleed a Lot - Book Review

 


No Part of this book may be reproduced in any form … The only exception is by a reviewer, who may quote excerpts in a review’.  So runs the first page of ‘White Girl Bleed A Lot’, the explosive  book by the award-winning American Journalist, Colin Flaherty.

As this is a Review, here is an Extract:
Race riots are back.

‘Along with widespread racial crime and violence.

‘In hundreds of episodes in more than 50 cities since 2010, groups of black people are roaming the streets of America – assaulting, intimidating, stalking, threatening, vandalizing, stealing, shooting, stabbing, even raping and killing.

Flaherty makes this point by detailing many of these episodes.  One of his chief complaints is that they aren’t normally reported by the media, not in the national media or even in the local media in the cities or areas where they occur.  Or if they are, the story is that there was nothing much to worry about because

Flash mobs, young people, gangs, people with no direction or good parents, they did it’
But as for race?  Nobody knew nuttin about nuttin’ see?’

Or if they did, it was ‘racist’ to mention it.
 For example, a sopping wet journalist apologist for black violence, one Emily Guendelsberger was seriously hurt when a black crowd of thousands roamed Philadelphia (where the previous two years had seen dozens of episodes of racial mob violence, all with same characteristics).

In the Guendelsberger incident they had descended on ‘an urban enclave of upscale bars and restaurants and shops with mayhem on their minds.  Running  through the streets, assaulting people in restaurants, stealing their phones and purses, pulling people off bicycles, and always violence, lots of violence.

But it wasn’t racist violence when they attacked Guendelberger because her  brown boyfriend was also assaulted, although’ not as badly as she was.  This ‘proved’ her point that race had nothing to do with it.  Anyone who thought differently was ‘racist’ and ‘creepy,’ she said.

A Racist Fact
Several on-line commentators wondered why she couldn’t acknowledge the racial component of the mob.  Replied one: ‘Unless you’re pointing that out to show how whites have oppressed blacks, acknowledging that fact is racist.’

They weren’t riots – some other description is used – and/or they were ‘traditional’.
Thus in Peoria, Illinois, once a byword for middle America (hence the famous phrase, ‘will it play in Peoria?) when on the 4th of July a black mob of thousands in a housing ‘project’ (ie publically owned housing estate) blocked a fire truck’s  access to a fire and threw exploding, industrial –type fireworks and bottles at  police and firemen; when 60-70 African-American youths marched down one of the side streets to the 4-lane main drag, yelling threats to white residents, such as ‘we need to kill all the white people around here’; when 20 black women threw rocks at houses and attacked a man, according to the information officer, these were not race riots because as Flaherty puts it, ‘the people doing the rioting did not say it was.  Or something like that.

The police had to fire nearly 200 pepper balls in order to gain control of the crowd and ‘every officer said pretty much the same thing – that it was chaotic and like a riot….every officer received bruises and burn marks.’  But the Police Information Officer said that ‘Revellers there have traditionally held private fireworks displays on the fourth and previously made targets of the police and passers by’.

A Beef about this Book
Oh.  ‘Revellers’ attacking the police and passers by is traditional.  So that’s all right then.  As Flaherty says, ‘I say rioters. You say revellers.’  ‘But’, Flaherty goes on, ‘the video tells another story’.  And here we have a beef about this book.

In the absence of news reports, or truthful ones, Flaherty backs up his undeniable case that there are widespread black-instigated race riots in the USA by referring to videos on You Tube and elsewhere on the internet which tell the real story.  (How the power of the internet is undermining the lies and distortions of the traditional MSM!!!!).  But until you buy the book you are unlikely to find this out, which is a great shame.  As is stated in the opening pages, ‘Because links to videos and pictures are such an important part of this book, this book is best viewed on E-reader.’

Never mind though.  Such is such is the power of the rata-tat-tat of so many incidents of shocking proportions detailed all over the USA, representing untold numbers of others, that one puts up with the inconvenience of finding the videos in question on line.  But be warned.

Attacking the Weak
Flaherty identifies a disturbing characteristic of these riots.  They focus on the weak.  Lone White Men, Women, Gays and others.  The upscale Philadelphia area mentioned above is a favourite of Gays.  While the White weak are especially at risk, others also suffer.  South Philadelphia High School is 70% black and 18 % Asian (In USA terms this means mostly orientals like Chinese, Vietnamese etc)

A Department of Justice report found that a contingent of largely black school officials dismissed ignored and even encouraged attacks on Asian students by Black students.

For years, Black students systematically beat and harassed Asian students on a daily basis.  In December 2009, 30 Asians were attacked sending 13 of them for emergency treatment.  School officials told local news outlets that the attacks were in no way racial.  The (mostly black) school authorities handed pamphlets to the Asians instructing them how to avoid antagonising their black schoolmates with racist behaviour - !!!

A Descriptive, not an Explanatory Book
Flaherty does not intend this book to be explanatory.  He merely presents a picture of what is happening.  But explanations for the explosion in race riots are implicit. In particular there is the power of modern communications.  Not only does the Internet carry reports and videos of the race riots which the liberals who run the newspapers and TV and Radio Channels choose to ignore, downplay, minimise or misrepresent, but the riots including the black flash mobs which are terrorising and robbing the citizenry, stores and restaurants of the USA are organised using their new social networking tools such as Twitter and Facebook.

Modern communications which have enabled tendencies to crystallise in mob form are probably at least part of the explanation as to why these phenomena  have surfaced in recent years in such spectacular fashion.  The same thing happened with the Riots in Britain recently.

Moral Collapse and the Victim Culture
Other implied causes include the malign and manifold influences of the post-1960’s moral collapse (eg illegitimacy among blacks is now 70%.) Then there is the growth of the victim culture which has been encouraged by guilt–ridden liberal /left whites and which has fostered a sense of grievance and entitlement.  This is despite the fact that blacks in America  have been favoured  over whites for nearly half a century with ‘quotas, set–asides, lower standards for blacks, training reserved for blacks, efforts to recruit blacks not matched by efforts to recruit whites, race-norming of tests, banding and recentering.’  (Michael Levin, ‘Why Race Matters’, 2005, P232).

Left/Liberal ‘Anti-Racism’ Denies, Excuses and Encourages Black Wrong Doing
Linked with the victim culture is the tolerance of black wrong-doing which Flaherty decribes. It is  born of the belief that it is the product of social ie white ‘oppression’.  Obviously, if you have a weak personal moral compass in a secular environment where right and wrong are relative, are told that you are oppressed and that your bad behaviour is the fault of others, you will find no great internal impediment to indulging in that same bad behaviour.  As for external constraints; these are non-existent for all practical purposes.  White leftist /liberals will excuse your behaviour and hysteria about ‘racist’ thinking, will help you to get away with it. Somehow leftists / liberals excuse it on racial grounds whilst at the same time managing to deny that it has anything to do with race.

Poverty is to blame?  Not Really
A further implicit reason, often quoted by leftists, is ‘poverty’.  But poverty is not of itself a cause of criminal behaviour.  Nor is the gap between rich and poor.  Crime was virtually non-existent by modern standards in England and Wales in the early 20th century although there was widespread poverty and the gap between rich and poor was infinitely higher than it is today.  (In 1921 there were 103,000 recorded crimes, pop. 37,886,689; In 2001 there were 5,200,000 recorded crimes, pop. 53,137,000.  Quoted by Peter Hichens, 2003 p 14: A Brief History of Crime).

If in general Blacks, who have been the beneficiaries of the racial discrimination (‘affirmative action’) in their favour for generations as noted above have not heaved themselves out of ‘poverty’,  this is because use with a mean IQ of 85 (Whites 100) and other characteristics they are not capable of anything else and have only themselves  to blame.

It’s Easier to Blame Whitey than to confront the Truth
This though is an uncomfortable fact that blacks would for understandable reasons rather not confront, preferring to blame Whitey.  Whitey of course, or its cringing, dominant left-liberal political class, is only too happy to agree with this fiction. (Who are Blacks going to blame when Whites are in a minority in the USA? The Jews?).

Other ethnic minorities though, such as the Jews (also heavily discriminated against historically) and the East Asians whom Blacks are inclined to torment and who started off in the USA in the 19th Century as indentured labourers with a social standing not much above slaves, do very well socio-economically.  In any case, the poverty of Blacks is entirely relative, consisting of a standard of living which would be thought of as great wealth by most of the world’s population.

The Black Poor will always be with us and so will Black Resentment and Violence - if Liberals do not see Reason
Jesus said ‘the poor are always with us’.  And because on average they lack the intellectual wherewithal and other personal characteristics necessary to succeed in a modern economy, blacks in general will always be poor, relatively speaking.  Or, if you like, the poor will always include a hugely disproportionate number of blacks.

Thus in the unlikely event that they learn to accept the realities of their condition, as we all have to, there will always exist a capacity for black resentment of more successful ethnic groups and so black violence.  Lies and excuses on their behalf will only succeed in deepening their frustration and distress.

The racially -determinedl socio-economic hierarchies that naturally develop in racially mixed societies with all their attendant social stresses is one of the key arguments against the existence of such societies.

An Expensive Outsourcing?


A number of people with whom I work are customers of the NatWest bank, a part of the Royal Bank of Scotland, which readers will recall was the beneficiary of a £37billion bailout at the time of the 2008 financial crisis, (caused in large part by the losses incurred by American banks lending too much money to African Americans and Immigrants who did not pay them back). 

Customers of NatWest and RBS have had a very difficult few days, and so have those banks!

Last Friday a software upgrade within the RBS systems went wrong, and efforts to correct the error accidentally resulted in the entire day’s transactions, for millions of customers, being erased. This was the biggest computer error ever to occur within the UK banking system, certainly in this century,  and has caused total chaos, especially to customers whose salaries were being paid in that day, or whose rent or mortgage payments were due to be made.  In addition thousands of house purchases and business transactions fell through, and in one instance a man on trial, who had been granted bail had to be kept in prison over the weekend as he was unable to raise the necessary funds as a direct result of the failure. 

The bank has promised to compensate anyone who lost money or suffered extra costs as a result of this error, and it is estimated that the debacle will cost the bank hundreds of millions of pounds, even before factoring in the loss of confidence, bad publicity and a potentially hefty fine by the bank regulator. There has also been a sizable slump in the bank's share price.

The problems started last Friday, and have not yet been resolved, and as the bank struggle to restore order and reputation, a story is beginning to gain purchase within the media, albeit it has not made it past the news censors at the BBC.

The story, which the banking unions have also begun totake up is that the error occurred due to inexperienced technicians in Hyderabad India.  It seems that the RBS recently laid off a large number of UK based technicians and relocated their jobs to India where people could be employed to do the job at a quarter of the salary.

If this is true then that cynical any unpatriotic decision to dump British workers and employ cut price staff in India, has cost the bank very dearly indeed.

I do not yet know if the story is true, the RBS CEO Stephen Hestor somewhat disingenuously insisted yesterday that the crisis was not a result of the outsourcing move, but he would say that wouldn’t he, also, he and the bank's rather freyed PR department have suddenly become considerably less forthright on the issue today!  If it does turn out to be true, the irony would be too delicious for words.

Maybe there is such a thing as karma after all!

Farm attack victim dead, wife fighting for her life

Johan van Rensburg, 77, who was killed in a farm attack in Limpopo, is pictured with his son Hanno and his grandson, also Hanno. (Beeld)
 
Johannesburg - A 65-year-old woman who was shot three times in a farm attack in which her husband was killed, is fighting for her life in a Polokwane hospital.

Beeld reported that doctors said Gloudien van Rensburg would probably be paralysed if she survived.

She was shot as she lay sleeping next to her husband, Johan van Rensburg, 77, on their game farm Cosmopolite near the Botswana border.

Her husband was shot dead by the four men who cut the electric fence and bent back burglar bars in the bathroom to get into the house.

The couple were attacked early on Wednesday morning.  American tourists, who had come to hunt on the farm, were woken up by the shots and raised the alarm.

The Americans were apparently too shocked to talk to reporters.

Firearms were stolen from the house but the couple’s cellphones had not been taken.

They celebrated their 43rd wedding anniversary in January.

Death of a Celtic Tiger

The new Irish join the unemployment queue

The Irish unemployment rate has just reached 14.8%, yet with apparent disregard for the plight of their own people the Irish government continues its suicidal immigration policy.   


4,000 people from 110 countries delighted to receive Irish citizenship


And they wonder why the once thriving Irish economy is in free fall!

Mike Smith

Thanks to all those who have written to be regarding my earlier posting about Mike Smith's blog.  I will get back to you as soon as I can.

It appears that Mike recently posted to say that is taking a break. I am told he is expected to return soon, which appears to be why his blog is currently off line.

It is a tribute to Mike's excellent blogging that so many people were concerned about his absence.

The Reporter who asked Obama a question


_____________________
With apologies to H.M. Bateman

Obama Shows his true Colours .... again!


With an official unemployment total of well over 8% and a real one closer to 20%, President Obama decides his own job is more important and seeks to buy Hispanic votes by adding millions of additional job seekers to the job market in what is in effect an amnesty for illegal immigrants. To do this, he bypassed Congress, just like any other third world dictator would do.

Is there anyone in America still dumb enough not to see through this man?

A large number of readers have written to me asking why Mike Smith's Political Commentary is currently offline.  I am afraid I do not have any answers at the moment, but I am seeking to find out, and will update you as soon as I get any information.

It has been suggested that Mike is merely taking a break, lets hope that is the case, and that he will be returning shortly.

If anyone has further information, please leave a comment below or write to me privately.
