I see what you’re trying to do here but most lefties won’t read past the second paragraph. The stuff about the white race. They’ll see that and dismiss the whole thing as Stormfront/Nazi propaganda.

whites make up only 40% of births as it is, and so whatever happens Brazil will look fairly white today compared to what America will look like in 2030 or 2040, and that Costa Rica will look like a WN whitopia compared to the US by then? And that your average white person by 2040 will look Walid Jumblat, Juan Pablo Montoya, and Jennifer Lopez,

But that 60% is heavily concentrated in just a few places, mostly along the Mexican border. That will mean balkanisation, with all of its attendant problems, not the creation of a single big happy coffee-colored nation.

sex = six

Say “I need six” in an Australian accent.

9/11 was the second time that Muslims tried to bring down those towers. It was only a matter of time before they had another go.

The scholarships were originally to be offered to British, American and German students. Rhodes wanted foster fraternal ties between the ruling classes of all three countries. He wanted Germany, Britain and the U.S. to jointly rule the world in peaceful amity. That didn’t work out.

The UK has all kinds of hate speech laws, the purpose being to tamp down racial tensions.

The problem is that laws originally passed to prevent racial and religious defamation eventually become used to protect minority criminals from exposure. This is why the Rotherham and related scandals happened. People who knew what was happening were reluctant to speak out about it for fear of arrest. Would race relations now be better or worse if sunlight had been shone on this situation right from the start?

As for the Gulf War, would we have been better off if we’d allowed Saddam to keep Kuwait and then take over Saudi Arabia, as well? (Maybe.)

Saddam wasn’t going to take over Saudi Arabia, but the Saudis would almost certainly have been ousted from power if they had allowed Kuwait to be annexed by Iraq. The new regime would probably not be friendly to the West. It was a difficult situation.

Does anyone have an explanation for why the State Department gave Saddam the green light to do this? I can only imagine that attention in the summer of 1990 was focused on Eastern Europe and nobody was watching the Middle East.

In the old days someone aspiring to elected office would have to travel the country to get himself known. Talks, dinners, speeches, debates. He would need to make himself seen and heard up close by thousands of ordinary people. It was hard to fake smarts or fluency.

Sending men on suicide space missions would have been a PR disaster for the USSR. Even the deaths of those dogs provoked international protests (Laika). A one-way mission wouldn’t be much of a technical achivement anyway.

I remember speaking to an actual Moroccan-from-Morroco about a related issue and he mentioned that back home most of these extremists would be in prison. The government there doesn’t tolerate this crap.

I remember reading somewhere that the closest the U.S. has come to a military coup in modern times was when Truman fired MacArthur in 1951. The general had great popular support, as well the support of the army, and could have caused a lot of trouble to Truman if he had wanted.

The Irish? In college now, the kids are taught that the Irish weren’t considered white in the 1850s.

They were considered members of the Celtic race rather than the Anglo-Saxon race. This had nothing to do with skin color.

I think one of the worst national security decisions made by US was to build up Taliban in Afghanistan during the 1980s. Second was the first (1991) Iraq war. Without these two seeds, most likely, there would not have been 9/11 and the consequential road to perdition we are all on.

The Afghan rebels enjoyed generous support from wealthy Muslim nations like Saudi Arabia. American support was important but probably not decisive.

The mistake was not so much fighting the 1st Iraq war but staying around after it was “over”. The Saudis and their local allies should have been left to deal with Saddam, which shouldn’t have been too difficult since most of his armor and air power had been eliminated.

Freedom, democracy, diversity. You can have any two.

How do blacks feel about all these other groups horning in on their privileges?

Thoughts on the alleged shootdown of United 93 on 9/11?

Just saw a reference to ‘Guns, Germs and Steel’ on another website and immediately thought of this. That must be the ‘bible’ of the ‘magic dirt’ cult.

Yes, that’s always been my understanding. A dispute about gun ownership escalated into a dispute about child rape. Reno launched the assault to ‘save the children’ and got everybody killed.

(I wonder if memories of Waco were why the police at Columbine were so reluctant to intervene there. They just waited until the shooters killed themselves before finally entering the school.)

I never heard this one before. That’s very imaginative. I think you may have just beaten out Svigor’s kleenex story.

I’m surprised that so many of the people who pontificate on this subject don’t know even basic things about Islam and Muslims.

w.r.t. Kennedy. How popular was he at the time of his death, really? Would he have won the 1964 election? It’s hard to get a clear view of this because of all the postmortem myth-making.

I think these emigrants were required to pay a significant (by Russian standards) amount of money to leave, in order to pay for their educations and other freebies they received growing up in the USSR. Was this changed at some point?

I don’t think it’s helpful to compare the IRA and Muslim radicals. The IRA and similar groups (Basques, RAF) were at war with a specific state and generally targeted servants of that state: politicans, solders, policemen, informers, etc. The killing of ordinary civilians was normally not an objective, though it’s true they didn’t much care if bombs intended for soldiers killed nearby civilians as well. The Muslims just want to kill as many people as possible.

My point was that it was the dead children in the Waco compound that led to OKC.

This whole affair was all about children. It was claims that young girls were being raped by Koresh in the compound that enraged Janet Reno and caused her to order the assault, over the objections of people who wanted to wait out the seige. And it was the deaths of all those children in the resulting firefight and fire that enraged McVeigh and caused him to carry out his bombing.

One thing that butch angry feminists and angry white militiamen can agree on is that violence against children is valid reason to kill.

I don’t think people understand how these things work. If these atrocities continue the choice won’t be collective punishment or no collective punishment, but whether this punishment is administered by the state in a relatively disciplined and restrained manner, or administered by the general public in an undisciplined and unrestrained manner.

Collective punishment won’t happen because Nazis. (Obviously not an issue for Israel.)

I assume that for historical reasons Belgium got a lot of Congolese immigrants, who are not very bright. They’re not Muslims though so this is probably a red herring. The relative militancy of Belgian Muslims probably has more to do with the weakness of the state. Nobody is afraid of the Belgian government.

They’re not going to go away without a fight. The problem is that this egalitarian cult has become a substitute religion for them, and they’re no more amenable to reason than any other devout believer. Your moderation is comendable but I don’t see a happy ending to this.

Could you have “shamed” the Klan in the 1870s or the Nazis in the 1920s? That would have been difficult to do since their views were mainstream among their respective populations. You’ll have similar difficulty trying to “shame” radical Islamic movements today for the same reason.

Osama didn’t need to claim responsibility for the attacks. They were an obvious re-enactment of the old ‘stoning of the devil’ ritual at Mecca, so every Muslim immediately realized the attacks were done by their people on their behalf. That was the important thing.

As for the DC snipers, IIRC the problem there was that the police chief in charge of the investigation was convinced that the shooters were ‘white racists’, and deliberately misdirected the search in pursuit of this obsession.

Conspiracies (like terrorism) are a weapon of the weak against the strong. If you can’t get what you want by force, you get it by scheming and intrigue. Conspiratorial people are also good at spotting conspiracies by others. The problems begin when such people begin to see conspiracies where none actually exist. A conspiratorial mentality detached from common sense is like a balloon without ballast.

Soros is an interesting figure. I remember about the time of the Iraq invasion he provoked a storm of protest by claiming that anti-Semitism is the result of Jewish behavior. He seems to have kept quiet about the issue since then.

It appears that at least one of the Paris attackers is a ‘Merkel youth’. In other words, the Germans have French blood on their hands. I can just imagine the conversations that are going on right now between German and French officials. This isn’t going to kill the EU but it will kill Schengen. Expect these ‘temporary’ French border controls to be around for a long time.

“Those who organized these attacks, and those who carried them out, are exactly those who the refugees are fleeing”

They were safe in Turkey. If they had stayed in Turkey they would still be safe. By moving to Europe they have endangered Europeans without making themselves any safer.

c. Timothy McVeigh as a hero. A few Timothy McVeigh’s can cause a great revolution.

Dead children. That seems to be the red line. It’s the only thing that still seems to provoke a violent reaction.

The Franco/German alliance has always been the foundation of the EU. A a few peripheral states may leave, but but so long as France and Germany remain devoted to the project it will remain a force to be reckoned with.

However one of the most important EU trends of the last 20 years has been the decline of French power within the EU. The alliance used to be one of equals, and no German chancellor would dare make a big decision (e.g. invite a million Arabs into the EU) without first consulting with Paris. Those days are long gone, and now France finds itself pulled along behind Germany with no say in the matter no different to Hungary or Poland.

‘Ramp’ is an archaic term for scam/swindle/trick.

Quitting smoking leads to obesity- full stop. Do never-smoked non-smokers have higher rates of obesity than smokers? I don’t know, but probably. Is smoking worse than obesity? Don’t expect an honest answer after the lawyers and government have declared victory over Tobacco and picked its carcass clean.

Yes, the downsides of non-smoking need study, but don’t expect it to happen anytime soon. No doctor or scientist is going to touch this for a long time yet.

Grab a weapon and go confront these invaders and see what happens when things turn violent. YOU will be the one arrested and punished. You won’t have public support behind you. This is the basic problem.

Most people are driven by emotion not reason. You can lecture them all you like about history, demographics, crime stats, and the like – you may even get them to nod along in agreement for a while – but the moment they see a dead child bobbing in the water, it’ll all fly out of their heads and they’ll begin keening and wringing their hands and demanding to LET THEM ALL IN NOW.

If you know a way of changing this I’d like to hear it.

From what I’ve seen of this Christakis guy, he would react with horror at any declaration of support from conservatives. In fact, he would probably join with his persecutors to denouce such ‘supporters’.

That’s right. They’re being consumed by a fire that they started. They deserve no sympathy.

On the contrary, the ultimate objective of this racial agitation seems to be to drive all white male liberals out of academia. This will be a colossal self-inflicted wound by the left. Don’t interrupt your enemy when he’s making a mistake.

Yes these people are destroying themselves. We should all just stand back and enjoy the show.

Back when Mahathir Mohammed was running Malaysia, and serving as unoffical spokesman for the southeast Asian countries, he made the connection between trade and immigration explicit: if Australians wanted to join Asian regional trade organisations then Australia would have to have more Asian immigration.

This is why the Australian political/business elite reacted with such fury to Pauline Hanson and her campaign against Asian immigration: she was jeopardising a lot of valuable trade deals.

If Nixon had tried to suddenly pull all 500,000 Americans out of Vietnam in 1969, the U.S. would have found itself at war with South Vietnam as well as the North.

That’s an interesting observation which puts the racial issue into perspective. The push to get women into these institutions preceded the push to get minorities in. I think a numerical majority of college students now are female?

For this to work it would have to be done quietly – out of sight and hearing – of the general population. The media would have to be on board with the project. There must be no public scandal (e.g. hysterical women shrieking and tearing their clothes in full view of the world.) In other words, conspiratorial methods. Ideally this process should be completely invisible except to the people carrying it out.

The future will be the past. The Pale of Settlement is still (just) in living memory. This will return. Unassimilable racial/religious minorities will be required to live in specific geographic areas and be subject to legal penalties and disabilities if they leave them. This is how European countries practiced “multi-culturalism” for a thousand years, and it’s how they’ll handle it again in future.

Sony hurt itself by getting involved in movies and music and neglecting its core tech business. Do one thing well.

The obvious difference is that nobody cares if pirates are killed or imprisoned. Unarmed civilians are another matter.

The decline of smoking is probably the biggest reason for fewer fires.

(OT but I wonder why the social decline of smoking has been accompanied by an increase in asthma and allergies? You’d expect the opposite trend.)

Australia is in a delicate position because of its large volume of trade with Asian countries. Denmark could get away with banning Afro/Asian immigration after 9/11 because its foreign trade is overwhelmingly with neighboring European countries, so there was no danger of annoying important trade partners. But if Australia were to do the same there would be serious diplomatic and economic consequences.

East Asians aren’t Europeans. They have a completely different attitude to these things. Scenes on TV of refugees (especially children) drowning or in chains will cause a storm of controversy in Europe.

Muslims believe that all that’s good about western society (including science and technology) has Islamic origins, while all that’s bad is uniquely western. So there’s no ‘cognitive dissonance’. The failures of their countries are attributed to insufficient devotion to Islam.

“Fish them out of the water and return them to the Libyan coast.”?

This will work if there are 20 people in the boat, but what if there are 200? What if there are children among them? You will have dead people on your hands. Are you going to chain the survivors (like slaves!) to stop them jumping again? How will that look on TV?

To scuttle a boat is an act of suicide. Why interfere?

Any naval officer who does this will become a social pariah. He and his family may even be attacked. There may also be serious legal/professional consequences, especially if a left-wing govenment subsequently wins power and decides to make a political issue out of the incident.

As others have mentioned, the British were eating curry long before there were Indians in Britain to cook it, not because it was ‘vibrant’ and ‘exotic’ but because hot spices are a food preservative, which was a big deal in the time before modern refrigeration.

This is like watching exotic bugs devouring each other in a petri dish. What a strange world these creatures inhabit.

That’s true, though it will count for nothing when these millions of ‘Syrians’ get their German citizenship and are free to move wherever they like.

Leaving the EU will only solve part of the problem though. It won’t address the issue of family chain migration, and because of the ethnic vote no mainstream political party is likely to touch the issue. It also won’t address the 1951 refugee convention, which theoretically gives half a billion people right of residence in Britain if they can just get on a plane and go there.

Thilo Sarrazin: I would capture every ship. Even if it were a not merchant ship, I would set its passengers ashore at the exact spot on the African coast where they started and destroy the boat. You may be sure — after six weeks, no more of them would start out and there will be no more boat refugees.

They will scuttle their boats and jump in the water. What do you do then?

I don’t think that’s true. Jeremy Corbyn is both anti-EU and pro-immigration. The next Labour government may simultaneously pull out of the EU and scrap all remaining border controls.

Most immigration to Britain comes from outside the EU. Leaving the EU will not change this.
