https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purim: putting it shortly, this is a quasi-religious festival which, like most Jewish religious festivals, can be regarded as a celebration of ethno-cultural supremacism and/or military victory. A Jewish woman, a kind of secret agent, is infiltrated into the highest rank of society in what is now Iran. She conceals her origins, becomes queen, and then initiates, via her suborned king, the massacre of all those who oppose the Jews taking over the kingdom.

Template…

Iran is a big country. Presumably, such stocks are well-guarded and behind defences, perhaps in mountain caves or fortresses.

“The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.” That is the main problem with the [UK] Assisted Dying bill. Slippery slope.

I love that the Labour Party (and the “Conservative”) looks like it is sliding to oblivion. I love the fact that hundreds of MPs will be losing their generous pay and expenses (and pensions) packages. I love the fact that there will be tears on Election Day.

True, Reform, the likely beneficiary, is also fast-transforming into a rather similar System party, but at least the present System MPs who lose their rotten careers and monies will be facing loss on a large scale. They deserve that, at the very least.

Translates to a Commons with about 368 Reform MPs (very solid majority), 72 Lab (very weak official Opposition), 53 LibDems, 45 Cons, 44 SNP, and 41 Greens [etc].

Not too dissimilar from most other recent polls: Reform landslide, the rest disputing over who will be in second, third, or fourth place.

Akin to the much-written-about “D-Day deception” tactics of 1944. Maskirovka.

Not sure whether that is in Oman or some other state of the region. Maybe Qatar.

People are often “on a journey”, ideologically, philosophically.

Matt Goodwin of Reform UK started out as a “bog-standard” post-Marxist “antifascist” idiot-academic. Not so long ago, either. Around 2010, and he was still somewhere around there as late as 2020.

Over the years Goodwin moved to where he is now, to what some might term a “kosher-nationalist”, pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby position, but anti the UK’s devastating migration-invasion. Reform UK territory. He may stay where he is, ideologically (and from which he has made a very large income, hundreds of thousands of pounds per year), he may move to a better, more honest, position. We shall see.

In the Weimar period, there was a certain amount of movement not only between the Communist Party (KPD) and the National Socialists (NSDAP) but also among a number of other groups and those two “extremes”— the social democrats, the Stahlhelm (Steel Helmet) “conservative nationalists” and others. That was particularly so at the rank-and-file level and, a fortiori, the electoral level; ordinary voters.

One of the favoured younger members of the international conspiracy.

One-time Blair/Brown gopher, massive propagandist for the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, equally-huge propagandist for “multiculturalism” (migration-invasion) in previously almost entirely (leaving aside Maoris) Anglo/Brit New Zealand, and someone well-rewarded for all that.

I speculated on the blog long ago about where Jacinda Ardern’s tens of millions of dollars came from, given that she came from a poor-ish family and has never made a huge legitimate/transparent income.

It seems that Jacinda Ardern wants to move, or already has moved, to the prestigious Northern Beaches area of Sydney, places I knew as a child in the 1967-1970 era. The houses there now cost millions, some tens of millions.

What is the figure for Israel? High, anyway.

The Americans do not have the resources to do so, not unless the incursion mooted were to be very limited in time and scale. Iran has 92M inhabitants (twice the population of Iraq), and is the 17th-largest country in the world by area (Iraq is the 58th). Also, the USA has no suitable nearby bases from which to launch an invasion.

Were the UK to leave anachronistic NATO, stop being America’s poodle, and cultivate better relations with Russia, Russia would supply to the UK all the gas the UK needs, at cost price or nearly so.

A criminal and terroristic tribe has taken over, or very strongly influences (via mass media, political funding, finance, banking, infiltration into legal systems, pressure groups etc), most Western governments.

Lebanon, Iraq, Libya, Syria…when will they learn? Turning it around, though, maybe the ultimate strategy is precisely to create chaos, civil war, banditry, the collapse of state institutions etc in the Middle East. That way, Israel (which of course is in the driving seat, manipulating Trump, the USA, European powers etc either directly or via the global Jewish lobby), does not have to face any organized state on its borders or in the wider region.

Constitutionally unlikely but not completely impossible, given suitable amendments to the U.S. Constitution etc.

Historical film

When I myself first went to Moscow, in May or June of 1993, the city shown in that 4-minute film had already passed into history, the Soviet Union having been officially dissolved in December 1991.

Quite right in the obvious sense, but that diplomat [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Lyall_Grant] left out the less-obvious winner— Russia.

Oil price skyrocketing (Russia of course being a major producer), and Putin able to sit back and play the “wise international statesman” role as the USA flounders and is seen as under the control of Israel and its many well-embedded agents and agents of influence in the USA; also, American money and weapons being utilized in the Iran operation, rather than on propping up the Zelensky dictatorship in Ukraine, where the Kiev-regime’s front lines are crumbling.

[the cat in the Kremlin]

All the Russians have to do is watch and wait.

The USA has enormous military-destructive power but —unlike a true empire— seems incapable of creating a new and stable geopolitical order (cf. Alexander the Great and later extra-Greece Hellenism, Rome and the Roman Empire, Byzantium, the Ottomans, the Mughals, the British Empire, Napoleon and —had he lived longer and triumphed in the 1940s— Hitler).

Trump remains how I described him in 2016 (when I still had a Twitter account), “a noisily squawking parrot in a gilded cage, surrounded by a phalanx of Jews“.

Translates into a Commons with about 374 Reform UK MPs (strong majority), 65 LibDems (very weak official Opposition), 57 Greens, 55 Cons, 45 SNP, 28 Lab [etc].

Labour’s problem is that it is (correctly) seen by the Muslims especially as a Labour Friends of Israel government, and by most of the white English/British voters as (also) being a party for the “blacks and browns”, and some of the public service workers. The days when Labour was (as the guitarist Brian May commented on TV about 10-15 years ago) “the party of the working man” disappeared (as May also noted) about 25, if not 30 years ago.

Hyperbole from the second tweeter, but many foreign doctors are not much good; that much is true.

Naturally, the UK should be recruiting, training, and employing BRITISH doctors and nurses.

There is the other point, that the foreign NHS imports often bring up to a dozen dependants with them, most of which will be a massive drain on the resources of the state, one way or another.

Good grief. If the UK were to leave NATO, stop being America’s poodle, and became more friendly to Russia, the Russians would sell us whatever we need at cost price.

…never seen a war launched without clear a political objective… or exit strategy...” Really? Where was that person when the USA and UK attacked Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya?

If that were to happen, “Goodnight Vienna Kiev“, and if any such weapons were to be actually used, goodnight London and Paris too, very likely.

You read it here first…

Both charming, and interesting from the scientific point of view.

Joani Reid MP. Obscure; I do not think I had heard of her before today. According to Wikipedia [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joani_Reid], grand-daughter of the Jimmy Reid who was the leader of the Upper Clyde Shipbuilders “work-in” in the early 1970s. I remember him from the TV news reports at the time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Reid.

Oh dear…”She is Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group Against Antisemitism. In that case, I hope that bad fortune strikes her.

Russia must be loving this…

So nothing to do with missiles etc, just an act of war, thousands of miles from Iran.

As I have been predicting on the blog for a couple of years: the Starmer-stein government pretending to “stop the boats” while, in reality, allowing vast numbers of unwanted blacks and browns to flood into the UK “legally”.

Dan Hodges once again parroting the Israel-lobby line. We need no “defence” against Iran. So what if a crater was made in the ground in Cyprus?

Interesting that Restore Britain, something only just established, is already on 7%. To my mind, that indicates a definite shifting of the “Overton Window” to a more radical position than that taken by Reform UK.

According to Electoral Calculus, that poll would mean a Commons with about 299 Reform MPs (27 short of an overall majority), 110 Greens (official Opposition), 77 Cons, 62 LibDems, 45 SNP, and 30 Lab [etc].

On those figures (once again), Starmer would lose his seat.

Justice done, on both sides.

Very true, but why leave out Cameron-Levita? Think facilitation of the fall of Gaddafi in Libya (which has been a major cause of the migration-invasion of Europe, certainly from Africa), and the demonization of the sick, disabled, unemployed etc (which admittedly started under Blair and Brown but was 10x worse under Cameron-Levita).

In fact, Brown was not much better, for all his fake “great brain” grandstanding.

As for Blair, he may have thought he knew what do do with power, but most, maybe 80%, of what he did was wrongheaded: PFI contracts, the deliberate importation of non-Europeans in large numbers, the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, the explosion in prices in the residential property sector etc.

Ha ha. Very true.

I must have missed the bit where fake Labour and fake Conservative parties and their clueless ministers showed us the benefit of such “skills and experience“…

I mean, we are talking about (in the present government) such as David Lammy, Angela Rayner, Liz Kendall, Rachel “from Accounts” Reeves etc— complete deadheads; and about (in previous governments over the past decade) Liz Truss, Kwasi Kwarteng —aka Woollyhead Trussbanger, Ian Dunce Duncan Smith, and others too numerous to list. A cavalcade of cretins.

Not that tweeter Victoria Freeman is completely wrong. A Reform UK government would/will be disastrous, true, but so are or have been, and would be, all the others. Only a credible social-national government can save this country and the rest of Europe.

I have noted several times on the blog the ever-more-voluminous reservoir of non-voters and their potential power. More than 40% of eligible voters did not vote in 2024. That may or may not increase to 50%. If any movement could capture that 40%-50%, it would very likely also capture another 30%, and so 70%-80% of the national vote. Our time will then have come.

Trump gave Zelensky a warning to negotiate with Russia, a warning not only verbal but given in real-life terms, by temporarily cutting off arms and ammunition. If Zelensky ignores the warning, shipments will again be interrupted, and may never restart.

Zelensky’s unwillingness to give Russia most of what it wants means that the war will continue until Russia prevails over all eastern Ukraine (Ukraine east of the Dnieper), and that will eventually happen even if American armaments continue to be gifted to the Kiev regime.

This blog has always said that peace must be, and really can only be, on the basis below:

  1. Russia to rule Ukraine east of the Dnieper;
  2. Russia to rule Crimea;
  3. Russia to rule the littoral of the Sea of Azov, and the littoral of the Black Sea as far west as Odessa;
  4. Kiev and Odessa to be either “open cities”, i.e. neutral and ruled by their own inhabitants, or with co-dominium status, ruled jointly by Russia and a Ukrainian government based in Lvov.

Similar to freeloading and/or corrupt NWO/ZOG politicians on the American side of the Atlantic:

Were the UK to get closer to Russia, leave NATO, get rid of US air bases (inc. those falsely designated “RAF”), stop being “America’s poodle”, and drop the stupid anti-Russia sanctions, the UK could probably get oil and gas at cost from Russia, maybe even at a subsidy. All that, and a guaranteed market for British goods and services.

Britain could keep and even expand its nuclear weapons submarine fleet, but now under full British control, nothing to do with the Americans.

The ridiculous woman on the video was, apparently, the Editor of the Daily Mirror. No wonder few still read that shite anymore. The circulation, once in the millions, is now 190,000, and dropping fast: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daily_Mirror#2004%E2%80%93present.

Incidentally, under her editorship (2018-2024), that comic went from having a circulation of about half a million to its present poor state. I do not “blame” her alone; her kind of System scribbling is just dead and gone, really.

Once “they” control any country, or area, or field of activity, they start to monopolize it. Fact. Historical fact.

Interesting. As a barrister in London, I used to get briefed by the PKK “back in the day” (early/mid 1990s), though there was nothing ideological in it; one brief just led to another after a couple of early and unexpected successes.

Britain’s battle-ready troops consist of maybe 10,000 personnel, it seems. The Kiev regime is losing 500-1,500 every day. So if the UK sends troops to Ukraine (which might trigger direct full-scale war with Russia if the story is true, which I doubt, what happens after a couple of weeks or so, when most of those Brit troops are dead, badly-injured, or captured?

Even in the world of the “British” Lugenpresse, which is mostly owned by the “you-know-who”s and prints rubbish most of the time, the degraded Daily Express stands out as truly ridiculous.

Well, don’t come here!

From the horse’s mouth.

A state founded on terror, and populated mainly by the sweepings of the ghettos of pre-1945 Europe. Now attracting psychotics, sub nom “settlers”, from places such as Brooklyn.

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

[“Britain is a tinderbox right now. You can literally feel it. People are a lot angrier, a lot more frustrated, a lot more disillusioned than Westminster thinks. Years of lying to –and gaslighting– the British public about our borders and mass immigration have eroded public trust and undermined the social contract. And now Keir Starmer’s farcical small boats “deal” is just going to make all this so much worse. As I explain below, this is not a serious plan for fixing our borders. It is an exchange programme for illegal migrants. It is an insult to the hardworking, law-abiding British majority. We don’t want “one in, one out” We want “none in, all out” If you break our laws, you should never be allowed to remain in the country. It really s that simple We want an end to broken borders We want an end to mass uncontrolled immigration We want an end to British families being forced to pay billions each year for an immigration crisis our elected politicians refuse to fix And we want all of that.

My assessment of Macron from 2019:

The Kiev regime seems to be losing, every day, on average, about 1,000 men (killed, wounded badly enough to be taken out of the front-line, or captured); an unknown number, thought to be high, desert on any one day. There are now no volunteers, only those kidnapped off the streets and forced on pain of death to “serve”.

The Kiev regime is on the brink of catastrophic military collapse in Ukraine east of the Dnieper.

A recent assessment I saw about the mainly Jewish “Hope not Hate” cabal (amateur —though paid— snoopers and propagandists): https://restorationist.org.uk/how-long-can-the-cps-ignore-hope-not-hates-criminality/.

Should any new readers require information about the dishonest and incompetent Jew-Zionist solicitor, Mark Lewis (of Eilat, Israel), please use the blog’s search box.

Lewis is or was a “Patron” of the malicious Jew-Zionist pro-Israel org and fake charity (effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London), the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, which is the private prosecutor in several recently-initiated and current minor criminal cases, such as those against the black comedian Reginald D. Hunter, and against Professor David Miller.

Wealthy UK-based Jews and opaque Israeli funders have recently provided the “CAA” with well over £600,000 to bring contrived criminal cases privately in England.

My own experiences (a selection out of many more) of the “CAA” and the informally-connected “UKLFI” (UK Lawyers for Israel):

The Jewish/Israel lobby has been assiduous in having had removed a great deal of damaging online material about Lewis: fraudulent and other dishonest conduct when acting as a solicitor (including cheating clients out of money); Lewis’s sheer incompetence as a lawyer in both (at first) Manchester and (after 2009) London.

Some is still to be found online, though: Lewis’s attempts (with his present wife/carer, Mandy Blumenthal) to make both Jew-Zionist publicity (re. contrived “antisemitism”) and money (“compensation” for supposedly hurt feelings) via planned stunts, such as the one against Kuwait Airways some years ago, and the one that badly-backfired at a show put on by that black comedian, Reginald D. Hunter, at the Edinburgh Fringe last year.

https://www.thejc.com/news/kuwait-airways-pays-damages-to-woman-barred-from-buying-ticket-at-heathrow-for-being-israeli-c1vcjc8o.

Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal made money both ways out of that Kuwait Airways scam: she got “compensation” (for nothing) running into tens of thousands of pounds, while Lewis got a similar amount by acting, notionally, as her lawyer in the non-existent “case”. In reality, the whole thing was, in ordinary language, a fraud.

I covered that last particular Lewis scam on the blog last year:

The scam failed, but now we have that black comedian being privately criminally prosecuted by the “CAA” fanatics, of whom Lewis himself is, of course, one!

See also:

Other material about Mark Lewis is also now hard to find online. I mentioned a couple of items on the blog a few days ago, such as Lewis’s physical and mental abuse of his second wife, the one-time minor (very minor) “celebrity” and sometime local radio presenter, Caroline Feraday (they married in, I believe, 2012, but divorced in 2013, about a year after the glitzy wedding, which was well-covered by tame Jewish scribblers in several newspapers and magazines; the divorce was scarcely covered anywhere, though).

More material about Lewis and Caroline Feraday can be found via the search box, but Caroline Feraday has now deleted her original Twitter/X account (which, like that of Lewis, pretended to have tens of thousands of —in fact, merely bought— Twitter/X “followers).

Lewis was, incidentally, married to his first wife in Manchester (from where he originated), but they divorced sometime around 2009 or 2010.

Ex-wife of an ex-MP (Con Party) thinks that the way back for the “Conservative” Party is to hit pensioners again, give more money to pseudo-green “climate change” nonsense, and beg to re-enter the EU.

Bearing in mind that pensioners have, in recent years, provided well over half of Conservative Party votes, and that Brexit-favouring voters have also heavily supported the Con Party over the past decade, that prescription would seem to leave the Cons adrift in heavy seas. https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/49978-how-britain-voted-in-the-2024-general-election.

The Wallis Simons individual went to Israel from the UK to join the Israeli armed forces, then suddenly was found travelling around Asia etc, and without any obvious sign (other than his appearance) of his Jewish/Israeli orientation. Why? What? How?

One can speculate, but hard information is not easy to find.

Britain is housing a “fifth column”. That fifth column must be rooted out. Es muss ausgerottet werden!

When I first visited Qatar, in very early 2001, I was being driven in a Qatar Airways limousine to my aircraft (by reason of my travelling First Class) when I noticed that Air Force Two, the conveyance at the time of General Colin Powell, was parked next to the Qatari plane. Obviously (in retrospect) there to talk about Iraq etc.

The US-Qatari connection is not new.

“Illegal” migration is about 5%. What about the other 95%, Goodwin?

Incidentally, Goodwin, your craven obeisance to Israel and the UK Jewish lobby has shot your credibility. Pity…

Chilling Pentagon documents may reveal why the ‘Deep State’ has always feared the release of the John F. Kennedy assassination files.

A 12-page report, signed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) in 1962, details a secret plan to commit heinous acts against American citizens to justify war with Cuba in the 1960s.

Code-named Operation Northwoods, this top-secret plot proposed enacting terrorism on US cities in a what is known as a ‘false flag operation’, before blaming Cuba in order to fool the Americans into supporting war efforts to oust communist Fidel Castro.

JFK rejected Operation Northwoods when it came across his desk and was shot.

A conspiracy theory surrounding JFK’s assassination claims he was killed by Israel which allegedly controls the US ‘Deep State.’ 

Now, President Donald Trump has promised to release all classified documents relating to JFK’s assassination, which could potentially lead to more shocking revelations about the US government’s activities during the 1960s.

If—

By Rudyard Kipling

(‘Brother Square-Toes’—Rewards and Fairies)

“If you can keep your head when all about you   

    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,   

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

    But make allowance for their doubting too;   

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

    Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,

Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,

    And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;   

    If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;   

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

    And treat those two impostors just the same;   

If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken

    Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

    And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

    And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

    And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

    To serve your turn long after they are gone,   

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

    Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,   

    Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

    If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

    With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,   

Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,   

    And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!”

Wes Streeting, and his fellow Labour Friends of Israel members in Starmer’s hapless hopeless Government, are just empty vessels, making much noise. Even their noise, though, strikes me as being of the past, a tired rehash of Blair-Brown-ism mixed with rather a lot of Cameron-Levita/Osborne pseudo-“austerity” nonsense.

Starmer-Labour has nothing at all to offer the British people (as I predicted a year ago).

They are still, also, pushing the obviously false, untrue, mantra, “Diversity is our strength“, which only the very dim and/or totally deluded still believe.

Not quite the same as my solution…

Wall. Squad. End.

In the phrase of Katie Hopkins, “Bonkers Batshit Britain“…

According to Electoral Calculus, that would mean about 303 Labour seats, 138 Reform UK, 91 Con, 71 LibDem. So probably a Lab minority government with LibDem support, but possibly a Labour minority govt. with support from SNP and other minor parties. Labour would have to get a dozen or two dozen votes from somewhere.

Reform UK would be the official Opposition either way, on those figures.

Here’s how all Zionist arguments collapse upon the slightest examination: “We were here first”: no, the Canaanites were, and many Palestinians have Canaanite DNA (& Jewish DNA as well, per Ben Gurion himself). Now prove yourself each of you is a direct descendant of someone who inhabited this land!

“We’re returning to our homeland” so said the French & Italians in Libya & Algeria “we are returning to & recovering Roman lands.” “But the West Bank is ours b/c of the bible”, that’s not how international law works, its utmost principle is a prohibition on acquisition of territory by force; i.e. you can’t just steal land by conquest & military power anymore!

“God promised it to us”; a) good luck arguing this in court. B) then why did he take it away from you for 2000 years? “We had a Jewish kingdom on this land for about 250 years”: and Muslims have been sovereign on this land for 1400 years! Does Greece have a right today to occupy Turkey’s Istanbul/Constantinople b/c it was once part of the Byzantine empire?

“The world gave us Israel in 1947”: no they didn’t & they don’t have the right to! The UN then had only 57 members out of 193 member states today. Even then, & despite intense US/Zionist lobbying & intimidation, only 33 states voted for (mostly white) the Partition Plan as a proposal. The partition resolution was never voted on at the UN Security Council.

“But we were persecuted in Europe for centuries culminating with the Holocaust”: but why should I pay the price of European savagery & antisemitism?

“We have a right to return 2,000 years later”, then why doesn’t my grandma have that right only 76 years later?

That’s why no state has a “right to exist”. Because who/what gave them that right?

Despite all this, Palestinians unrequitedly recognised Israel over 3 decades ago, accepted its existence as a fait accompli, & accepted less than 22% of our homeland; & that is called today “Palestinian maximalism/rejectionism”, while Israel offering us caged bantustans worse than apartheid South Africa is call “a generous offer”!

[Ashkenazic Jews in Jerusalem, c. 1885. God’s sake! Just look at them!]

New research suggests that the majority of the world’s modern Jewish population is descended mainly from people from ancient Turkey, rather than predominantly from elsewhere in the Middle East.

The new research suggests that most of the Jewish population of northern and eastern Europe – normally known as Ashkenazic Jews – are the descendants of Greeks, Iranians and others who colonized what is now northern Turkey more than 2000 years ago and were then converted to Judaism, probably in the first few centuries AD by Jews from Persia. At that stage, the Persian Empire was home to the world’s largest Jewish communities.

According to research carried out by the geneticist, Dr Eran Elhaik of the University of Sheffield, over 90 per cent of Ashkenazic ancestors come from that converted partially Greek-originating ancient community in north-east Turkey.

Could Starmer’s Labour Friends of Israel Cabinet be less competent?

It has already, after 6 months, got to the point where it is glaringly obvious that this fake “Labour” government has no more competence, indeed maybe even less, than had those of Sunak, Truss, “Boris”-idiot, May, and Cameron-Levita.

Interesting. The best aspect of that, were it to happen, would be the dismay amid the “woke” rabble of new Starmer-Labour MPs, over 150 of them, as they lose their seats and are forced to contemplate having to go back to doing mundane and probably badly-paid jobs again.

[American-oriented but still relevant to British socio-political attitudes]

Europe’s largest economies, from 1961 to 2024. Interesting to see how some of the countries have improved or downgraded. Turkey, in particular, registered growth in the mid-sections of the list; East Germany/DDR was fairly high until the 1980s, when it fell like a stone. West Germany was high, and indeed at the top even before it absorbed the Eastern part in the 1990s, and has been pre-eminent since then. The Soviet Union as a whole was the largest economy overall for some time, but fell back in the 1980s, after which Russia started to climb, despite missing the other former Soviet republics, and has for some time been one of the five strongest economies (overall), in the top five. The UK has been in the top five consistently.

Of course, were that graphic to be expressed per capita rather than in gross terms, the situation would look very different.

Even after the Art Deco era, America was pre-eminent in terms of confident presentation at least, until the 1960s. Look, e.g., at a film such as North by Northwest (1959), with its ambience of, inter alia, Modern Movement architecture, as well as, later in the film, the influence of Frank Lloyd Wright.

That idiot seriously thinks that Britain was “dominant“, internationally, about 24 years ago! What planet is he on? Britain was then not only within the trammels of the EU etc, but was the “poodle” of the then Bush jnr. administration in the United States.

It really is about time that the British people demanded a lot more from the “security and intelligence” bods, or just dumped them, or most of them.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Younger.

What has weakened Britain has been a combination of the migration-invasion, together with the changing demographics of the UK, the sliding standards in all areas of society, cultural degeneration, and the domination of the UK’s government, political life, courts, policing and mass media, inter alia, by the Israel lobby. Oh, and the near-collapse and uselessness of our armed forces (etc).

The “CAA” cabal, effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London, can be called (as blogged about in the past) a malicious little cabal. They threaten a lot, suborn police and CPS officials, are a damned nuisance, but accomplish little even by their own standards.

They should not, of course, be treated as a charity. For one thing, they are directly political; for another, the activity of the “CAA” exhibits no “public benefit”.

Is that true (about Myerson being a heavy drinker)? I have no idea, though if true it might partly explain his vituperative social media activity, which was at least part of the reason he was sacked (sub nomresigned”) as a Recorder earlier in 2024. He certainly seems to stay up late, tweeting. Drinking too? As I say, I have no idea.

People say “the Holocaust is one of the most well documented events in history,” …. But it’s really not documented at all. In fact when you actually dig into the documents you realize how the evidence points into the other direction. Evidence like

-Hitler never ordered the extermination of the Jews

-the allies never spotted any “killing camps” when doing reconnaissance missions

-the allies broke the German codes and were listening to their messages, and heard nothing about death camps.

-all the “death camps” were only on the Soviet side. How did the allies manage to not find any? Why do we believe the Soviet communist?

-there is no physical evidence that Jews were gassed to death

-the worldwide Jewish population numbers did not decrease.

– the entire holocaust narrative is based on ludicrous constantly changing eye witness testimony

-during the war, the Germans were using the people in concentration camps as their labor force. Killing them literally would have hurt the war effort. This why they wouldn’t do it. “Arbeit Macht frei” which is stated at the gates of Auschwitz means work sets you free. Because it was a work camp…

After the disastrous end of the Second World War, the msm has pushed “their” view of whether Hitler was basically right about “their” mentality. What is the verdict?

Israel, food insecurity, and food banks

https://www.thejc.com/lets-eat/meet-the-pair-saving-the-starving-in-jerusalem-pfd37l9k

“Since October 7, Jerusalem’s food security has been in crisis, says food expert Daniella Seltzer. Rising prices, disrupted supply chains, and the continued impact of war on the workforce has made it harder for many to access food. But Seltzer’s programme, Food Rescuers, is stepping up to the challenge, working to tackle food insecurity and waste.

The Food Rescuers collect surplus produce that would otherwise be discarded and redistribute it to those in need. With a poverty rate of 40 per cent, Jerusalem is one of Israel’s poorest cities, and the Rescuers’ work is sorely needed.”

So Jerusalem has a poverty rate designated as being 40%? Not the picture shown to the world by the Israeli government. I wonder what the corresponding rate for Tel Aviv might be.

Leaving aside the Jewish/Israeli aspect, though, it is true that a huge amount of food is also wasted in the UK. I often buy tins and bottles sold at a quarter, a fifth, even a tenth of the usual price, and placed on a few special shelves in supermarkets. Everything from tins of corn, peeled tomato, and tuna to fruit juices and packs of Evian water. The tins have minor dents at times, and the multi-packs of water may be missing a bottle, but the value is astonishing.

I hope that people generally do as I do when I put items from home, usually tins or jars, and which are within a month or so of the “best before” stamp, in the supermarket food bank bins for people who are struggling.

A society such as the UK should not “need” food banks, and I think that I had never heard of them until the evil government of David Cameron-Levita came to power in 2010, but they are at present necessary, and one can help them without even making any personal sacrifice. Better that a jar of arrabiata pasta sauce goes to a needy person or family, than that it be thrown into landfill.

Incidentally, that Jewish Chronicle report adds that:

As prices rise, vulnerable communities – strictly Orthodox Jewish, Palestinian, refugee, Roma, and asylum seekers – are disproportionately affected. “The government’s food programmes often exclude people in East Jerusalem or non-Hebrew speakers. Even within the Jewish community, strictly Orthodox populations tend to get more support,” she says… “There is systemic racism engrained into the way the country works.”

Late music

Diary Blog, 8 September 2024, with some examination of the role of atrocity narratives in modern history

Morning music

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrushka_(ballet)]

Atrocity stories

Nihil novi…

As a matter of fact, most WW2 atrocity narratives in Europe can be traced back to WW1 British “black propaganda”. A few used in the First World War were not recycled for Second World War use, though, because obviously invented and very hard to believe (e.g. the German Army of 1914 allegedly having used Belgian nuns as bell-clappers in cathedrals).

More recently, many will recall the lying 15-y-o Kuwaiti girl who, after the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990, claimed that Iraqi troops had taken hospital incubators, leaving hundreds of babies to die: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nayirah_testimony.

In 1992, it was revealed that Nayirah’s last name was al-Ṣabaḥ (Arabic: نيرة الصباح) and that she was the daughter of Saud Nasser Al-Saud Al-Sabah, the erstwhile Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States. Furthermore, it was revealed that her testimony was organized as part of a wider public relations campaign conducted by the Kuwaiti government-in-exile’s Citizens for a Free Kuwait, which sought to encourage American military involvement against Iraq’s occupation of Kuwait through coordination with the American public relations firm Hill & Knowlton. In the aftermath of the Gulf War, the Nayirah testimony came to be regarded as a classic example of modern atrocity propaganda.[1][2]

Nayirah’s story was initially corroborated by Amnesty International, which published a report about the supposed killings[3] and testimony from Kuwaiti evacuees. Following the liberation of Kuwait, international media crews were given access to the country. A report by ABC News found that “patients, including premature babies, did die, when many of Kuwait’s nurses and doctors … fled” but Iraqi troops “almost certainly had not stolen hospital incubators and left hundreds of Kuwaiti babies to die.”[4] Later, Amnesty International USA reacted by issuing a correction, with executive director John Healey subsequently accusing the H. W. Bush administration of “opportunistic manipulation of the international human rights movement.”[5]

[Wikipedia]

In other words, the guilty parties were Kuwaiti doctors and nurses.

Incidentally, I have myself met only a small number of Kuwaitis in my life, about a dozen, but I have to say that every single one I have met in the past was a useless, unpleasant, and completely untrustworthy waste of space.

I myself was in the USA in 1990, and remember the barrage of TV propaganda pushing that untruthful testimony, as well as other stories designed to get the clueless American masses behind Desert Shield and, later, Desert Storm.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_War.

Apropos of nothing much, I think that the American names for military and other operations are much more evocative than the British equivalent, which are deliberately disconnected from the operations concerned, so that some espionage plot might be designated “Operation Morris Minor” or some such.

Hard to believe that that happened 33 years ago. The Second World War officially ended on 2 September 1945 (I was born on the same day and month but 11 years later, in 1956).

33 years after the end of that terrible war brings us to 1978. By that time, a new generation, my generation, born after 1945, thought of “the War” as mere long-ago history. I presume that that is how young people today think of the Gulf War or, even more so, the Falklands campaign of 1982 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falklands_War].

Atrocity propaganda is now an inevitable part of almost all human conflict, as was seen in the fairly recent (October 2023) attack by the Gazan organization, Hamas, on Southern Israel. At time of writing, people are still arguing over whether Hamas operatives “beheaded babies”, but it seems that they did not. The story that they had done so, though, was much used by Israel and the worldwide Jewish lobby to deflect criticism of the initial Israeli attacks, which happened (on a huge scale, though similar attacks had happened for years) from October 2023, killing, wounding, and making homeless the civilian population of Gaza (including babies).

The ultimate “atrocity propaganda”, of course, remains the WW2 “holocaust” narrative, and particularly the “gas chambers” part of that. Other parts of that narrative (armchairs upholstered in Jewish skin, lampshades made of the same material etc) have joined yet other “holocaust” atrocity stories in what Marx called “the dustbin of history“, abandoned even by the Zionists, but the “gas chambers” remain. Not as actual relics— there are none, unless you count those constructed after 1945 at Auschwitz in order to show the credulous masses of West and East what German SS personnel were alleged to have done. The “relics” that remain are psychological, in the minds of millions, particularly in the Anglophone countries.

One can see why the Zionists persist in trying to maintain the “gas chambers” narrative. Without it, the whole Jewish “holocaust” narrative (as something above and beyond what was suffered by other races or peoples in the 20th Century) falls. What would remain, were the world to accept that the “gas chambers” never existed, would be the actual truth— that quite large numbers of Jews in Europe, especially Eastern Europe, were treated badly, with many of them actually shot, but none actually gassed (as per the “official” historical narrative).

That more truthful version of 20thC history, however, would put Jewish suffering on —at most— the same level as the sufferings of others: in WW2, the sufferings of Russians and others brutalized and/or shot by the Soviet government, and the sufferings of Germans brutalized and/or killed by Soviet forces and or by other forces, including the Allied bombing of Germany 1941-1945 (which killed somewhere between 350,000 and 800,000 Germans), as well as the various groups treated badly by some German forces.

The “gas chambers” narrative is really the only claim that, if accepted, would tend to put the experience of Jews in the early/mid 1940s into a box above and beyond what other peoples suffered during the 20thC (and before, and after). That is why the Zionists keep pushing it.

Very true.

Many seem to regard Divine intervention as the only thing that might stop or delay the migration invasion of the UK. Whatever one thinks of that, the System parties will not stop it; indeed, they encourage it.

Something for Richard Moore to think about before he broadcasts more pro-“Ukraine” (Kiev-regime) propaganda bs.

Wait a minute… Only yesterday, Sir Richard Moore, the Chief of SIS/MI6, told the UK television audience that “Ukraine” has “the will to fight“. In reality, Ukrainians are desperate to avoid or evade the draft. The Kiev regime will collapse before long. Russia will ultimately prevail.

If only I had the power to do something about all of that, especially that last item.

Exactly. The NHS is very much a “hit or miss” service now.

What is “on the rise” is a growing anger that nothing works properly or easily in the UK, and a growing anger about the migration-invasion (a million or more each year), and also a growing realization that “two-tier” Keir is incapable of improving this country and indeed is determined to (further) ruin it (as well as being an unmandated petty dictator).

…and another 20,000 who entered the UK “legally” in the past week; at least superficially “legally”.

That is in the northern part of Donetsk Oblast: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sloviansk.

Only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters voted Labour at the 2024 General Election. About 3 voted Con, 2 voted Reform UK, 2 voted LibDem, and 1 voted Green. 8 refused to vote.

A reminder that, in international affairs, there is sometimes no “good” option but only “bad” or “worse” options. Sometimes the “least worst” option is also the (relative) “best” at that particular time.

In the example, leaving a terrible tyrant like Saddam Hussein in place might be “bad” (arguably) but deposing him, destroying Iraq, and further destabilizing the region, thus also causing millions to flee westward, might be described as “worse” or even “worst”.

That’s now. Ask again in 2025. Ask again in 2026…

Reform UK

So we are asked to believe that two Reform UK GE 2024 candidates have only just discovered, in the latest case two days before the General Election, that they disagree with their Reform UK colleagues or ex-colleagues?

To me this looks like a set-up, maybe co-ordinated, maybe not.

The latest defector is one Georgie David. I wonder what her provenance might be. She does not look very European in the Sky News photo.

If those two candidates really are against the UK being mainly white Northern European etc, how stupid must they be to have joined with Reform UK in the first place? I might add that the pair are, obviously, though in a minor sense, “traitor” types by nature, to defect like that only days before the “off” (to put it in racing terms).

I doubt that the defections will have any effect on the General Election. In fact, I doubt that the barrage of anti-Reform propaganda being put out by the Conservative Party will do more than perhaps dent a little the Reform UK vote. Even if it did, it would not help the Con Party; any Reform-leaning voters in doubt would not vote Con anyway, but more likely abstain.

More or less where my educated guess of several months ago ended up, though lighter on SNP seats and heavier on LibDem seats.

The only two where the range is relatively unimportant are Labour, which is (however unmeritoriously) on track for a massive win, it seems, and the LibDems, who seem likely to do modestly well or quite well purely by default, by being the “dustbin” or “tactical vote” choice.

All the rest? Either getting a bloc of significance, or almost nothing. Even the Con result will be very different on 34 MPs (a near wipeout) compared to 99 MPs (very poor but still just about in the game).
