U.S. Presidential Election

Writing before 0500 hrs (“Smersh Never Sleeps“), and with a number of states yet to declare, it is clear nonetheless that Kamala Harris is not going to win. So it is going to be President Trump. Again.

Now let’s stop the wars in Ukraine (number one priority, because of the risk of a general European war, and even a Russia-NATO nuclear war) and in the Middle East.

The Middle East will require both intensive diplomacy and a far stricter attitude towards Israel. No more “tail wags dog”.

As for Ukraine, the war can be stopped by simply taking away Zelensky’s ricebowl. Without Western money, arms, and ammunition, the Kiev regime will grind to a halt within weeks. Just do it.

“Shetland man’s bond with otter becomes subject of award-winning film.

Documentary about Billy Mail’s connection with orphaned pup Molly airs on National Geographic next week.

National Geographic will be streaming a new documentary about an unlikely bond between a man and an otter in Shetland.

Billy Mail met Molly, a starving pup, in 2021 when he saw her jumping off a pontoon into the sea near his Shetland home. Mail wanted to see how close he could get to her before she fled. But it turned out that Molly had no intention of running away.

She was starving and alone, Mail said. “She had a lack of fear that was really interesting because otters are normally pretty scared. I think it was just desperation. She needed food.”

But even after she regained her strength and was fending for herself, Molly kept visiting the Mails and became a “breath of fresh air” in their lives.”

You know how we are always being told how the UK “needs” so-called “high-skilled” non-whites? Well…

[defendant]

A drunk doctor headbutted a young waiter after he turned up three hours late for his table and was told the restaurant was closed.

Nganjo Endeley grabbed his 21-year-old victim’s shirt so tightly that he struggled to breathe before fracturing his eye socket with a powerful headbutt. Newcastle Crown Court heard the waiter suffered a “huge amount of pain” and has been left with a visible dent to his forehead, which is too risky to operate on.

The 41-year-old married medic, described in court as a “physically imposing man”, was found guilty of assault after a trial but escaped jail after a judge said refences show he behaved “out of character” that night. The court heard the doctor, of Bowburn, County Durham, has a previous conviction for common assault in 2001 and was cautioned for criminal damage in 2007.

Judge Sarah Mallett sentenced Endeley to two years, suspended for two years, with 250 hours unpaid work and an order to pay £2,000 compensation.

[Daily Mirror]

Suspended sentence, and a fine which a doctor can pay easily. The judge said that the violence was “out of character“— how so, when the defendant has 2 previous proven criminal incidents on his record, including one assault?

Lest we forget…

So who’s wrong (yet again), Rory Stewart??

See also:

Rory Stewart [in effect]: “I was wrong but I was really right...”

People such as Rory Stewart can never believe that they are wrong wrong wrong, and that the reason that they are wrong wrong wrong in their predictions about things is because they are wrong wrong wrong ideologically and because they simply do not understand the “ordinary” people anything like as much as they believe they do. Also, they are misled by their own biases.

In short, people such as Rory Stewart, and the (other) msm scribblers and talking heads and System politicos are incapable of thinking objectively. They believe what they want to believe, e.g. re. immigration and/or migration-invasion.

As for Starmer, his weakness in allowing MPs and SpAds to go to the USA to help the Kamala Harris campaign will now lead to some kind of payback from the Trump administration, and no amount of Starmer weaselling will be able to change that.

Eerie, those sirens, and the scuttling crowds. Rather like my occasional bad dreams, but played out in bright sunlight.

The Israeli defences seem to be weakening.

If even Hezbollah, a non-state actor, can attack, successfully, Israel’s main international airport, then what will happen if and when Iran attacks?

Goodnight, Vienna Kamala Harris!

Here we go (as predicted from the start on this blog)…

Historic.

Kamala Harris thus joins the crowd of failed Presidential candidates, such as Dukakis, who become obscure also-rans.

For me, leaving aside the necessity to stop the drift towards a third world war, the best thing about the Trump victory is seeing all the msm scribblers and talking heads look so horrified and astonished. Rory Stewart is the template. At least he had the courage to appear on TV and —at least sort-of— admit that he was wrong. Most will be trying to forget their wrong predictions and expressed wishes.

Look at that self-describing “Dem strategist” aged 27 (and a half?), one Ally Sammarco. Same type that become SpAds in the UK. The British version usually has an Oxford or Cambridge degree (almost all of which are now, purely nominally, “Firsts” or 2:1), probably in some “back of a postcard” subject. No background, no experience, no ability to think outside the box.

Priceless. Look at those faces! Ha ha!

Rory Stewart and Alastair Campbell (the latter of which duo should be punished for his crimes against the peoples of Britain, Iraq and other countries).

The people of Britain dodged a bullet when Stewart’s political career crashed and burned. Napoleon always asked of any general, “is he lucky?” If nothing else, and despite his “silver spoon” upbringing and early life, as a political figure Stewart is the opposite of lucky.

I have no idea who “John/@TurnsIntoStone” might be, but glad to see he likes my rather popular assessment of Rory Stewart, which includes many updates (tacked onto it since the original publication in 2019).

Stray thought about Trump

For me, loyalty is key. I am not so sure that Trump thinks the same way.

Were I in Trump’s shoes, my first action as President of the USA would be to pardon all those convicted in Federal courts for actions supporting me [Trump, that is]. Both the Trump partisans as such, and also the more “social-national” prisoners, whether Trump partisans or not.

Pardon them all. They will then follow you to the ends of the Earth.

That little bastard Hague has always been wrong on everything, just everything; which, in the contemporary UK, qualifies him to be regarded, however ludicrously, as an “elder statesman”, as the years pass…

Not just Trump; also on Libya, Assad and Syria, UK domestic matters, Julian Assange— you name it. Hague is a complete idiot.

Idiotic little twerp.

When I still had a Twitter account (a pack of Jews conspired to get me removed, which did eventually happen, in 2018), I asked Bonnie Greer directly and publicly why she considered herself in any way qualified to have been appointed as Deputy Chairman of the British Museum. She blocked me. She has no academic or other credentials qualifying her to opine on BBC Question Time, yet is asked on over and over again, and was chosen to sit next to Nick Griffin and needle him when he was subjected to a TV lynching in 2009. A favourite System puppet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonnie_Greer.

…as, once again, Anna Soubry, former MP for Plymouth and Angostura Broxtowe, falls into a vat of wine.

I presume that what the silly woman means is that the popular vote in a U.S. Presidential Election is a request (by convention binding) on the members of the Electoral College. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Electoral_College.

See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Electoral_College#Faithless_electors.

Were the members of the Electoral College to disregard the popular vote, and install Kamala Harris (which would be extremely unlikely, for reasons covered in that Wikipedia article, which Anna Soubry seems either not to have read, or not to have understood), the result would be a second civil war. Not hyperbole— fact.

I rarely repost tweets from Jewish Zionists but, in the Australian argot, “fair do’s“…

There is a socio-political and cultural sickness in the UK that will have to be mercilessly rooted out, whether you call it “political correctness”, “woke-ism”, or whatever else. Ausrotten!

The “trans” nonsense is but part of all that.

Trump, whatever one thinks of him, is not someone to trust, particularly. The Israelis may think that he loves them. I doubt it.

When? When?

German people (taxpayers) are getting very tired of propping-up the Jew-Zionist dictatorship in Kiev.

Pine martens

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/oct/01/pine-martens-return-to-dartmoor-after-150-year-absence

Pine martens return to Dartmoor after 150-year absence.

Fifteen of the nimble, tree-climbing mammals were released last month at secret locations in Devon.

Fifteen pine martens are darting through the woods of Dartmoor for the first time in 150 years after the rare but recovering species was reintroduced into south-west England.

The nimble, tree-climbing mustelids were released last month at secret locations in the steep, tree-lined valleys of Devon in what conservationists are hailing as a historic step in the restoration of the region’s woodlands.

“We haven’t had pine martens here for 150 years, and to see them moving out into this landscape to explore it and find their way is really exciting,” said Ed Parr Ferris, conservation manager at Devon Wildlife Trust, which is leading a partnership of seven conservation organisations returning the marten to south-west England.

The eight adult females and seven males were caught from resurgent populations in Scotland, meticulously checked for health, and driven to 10 woodland pens, where they were released under the cover of darkness well away from people and busy roads. The threat of road traffic is a big risk for the mostly nocturnal animals.

Fitted with GPS or radio tags depending on their size (lighter radio tags were used on the smaller individuals), the animals were fed in the pens for three days to acclimatise, before the doors were opened and the martens slipped away into the night.

Pine martens were driven to extinction in England at the turn of the 20th century by the loss of forests and persecution, with gamekeepers in particular targeting the animals for preying upon pheasants and poultry.

Good news.

Because Starmer is a complete puppet of the Israel lobby, aka Jewish lobby.

Such people are wedded to the idea that the job of the Civil Service is “the management of decline“, in the 1960s phrase.

Fairly typical…

…as I have repeatedly blogged.

Iranian attack on Israel

Puzzling to an observer. It seems that the attack was mostly if not entirely on military targets. The Israelis are keeping the scale of the damage secret. I had thought that there would be a large number of civilian casualties (as when the Israelis attack Lebanon, Gaza, Syria etc) but it seems that hardly any Israelis have been killed or even injured.

I have seen no indication of whether the Dimona nuclear weapons plant was hit.

Likewise, it seems odd that the main international airport suffered no, or no substantial, damage. I should have thought that that would have been a priority target.

Looking on from outside, it is hard to fully understand both the overall situation and the details, such as how many rockets (and of what type) Iranian forces have; likewise on the Israeli side.

All one can do is to keep looking out for news.

Remarkable revelations about the Home Office:

Well, appoint members of the House of Lords from the bazaars of South Asia, from the slums of Jamaica and West Africa, and from the tribe of “the usual suspects”, and naturally the whole institution crumbles. Who would have guessed?…

A half-African, with a “degree” in Hospitality Management from Ealing College, as Leader of the Conservative Party and, potentially, as Prime Minister? What could possibly go wrong? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Cleverly.

Having said that, the other three candidates are also bad jokes: a Nigerian woman married to a banker of uncertain provenance; a part-Jew former “chocolate soldier”; a dishonest and corrupt moneygrubber married to a Jewish woman lawyer. All three vocally pro-Israel.

At least Cleverly is rather less vocal in his support for Israel and the Jewish lobby.

I suppose that most scribblers and msm talking heads are expecting the Conservative Party to revive as Starmer’s hopeless government continues to falter (after only 3 months), but that may not happen.

For me, the most telling aspect of GE 2024 is that, in broad terms, out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 decided not to vote at all. Beyond that, out of the 12 that did vote, only 4 voted “Labour”, only 3 voted “Conservative”, and then 2 voted Reform UK, 2 voted LibDem, and 1 (just about) voted Green.

At present, the underwhelming Reform UK is the only game in town in terms of becoming an unofficial populist Opposition. The LibDems are just beneficiaries of a ridiculously illogical voting system. The “don’t know how to vote so vote LibDem” party.

None of the 4 contenders for Conservative Party leadership are really of any importance; none —say I— will ever be Prime Minister.

In other words, it became clear even to cloth-eared Sadiq Khan that that crazed American lesbian (on £132,000 for a 3-day week) was a total waste of space and, more importantly, was being seen as such by the whole of London (and beyond). In other words, Amy Lame has been sacked, but diplomatically.

Well, what struck me, looking at tweets mainly, was how few people attended, even compared to other recent years. Hopeless rabble.

I have as much of a beef with the sheer brainless vulgarity of her behaviour (especially at the age of 44) as with the all-too-typical “New Labour”-style freeloading.

I think that not only Jews are puzzled. Looks as though the Iranian forces prioritized military targets. It is uncertain, though, what proportion of missiles hit their targets.

Without more detail, such information is almost useless.

The crimes of the Israeli Jews are terrible.
