Battles past

Tweets seen

Not a legitimate Home Secretary but yet another horrible mongrel elevated with little merit to a high political position in our country.

Israeli propaganda“. Quite. Jewish broadcaster Emily Maitlis, having now left the BBC, is free to blast out Israeli propaganda. In fact, I notice that Jewish-lobby or Israel-lobby mouthpieces are everywhere today on the TV, radio, social media. Emily Maitlis, Michael Portillo, even “Tommy Robinson”.

Looks like it has been co-ordinated to some degree. Even not-famous Jews are tweeting the same sort of stuff. Such as? Oh, “getting bombed is your fault if you are a small child in Gaza, because either your family knows someone who supports Hamas, or because you might grow up to be anti-Israel” etc. Or, “the people of Gaza are not poor because the Israelis control most of the utilities, and prevent much economic activity, and also exploit Palestinian day-labourers by chiselling their low pay, but because of Hamas”. And so on.

Britain is, in its own way, almost as “occupied”…

Incidentally, Portillo has discarded for a day his popular and pleasant railway monologue character, and reverted to the old harsh persona many will remember from the 1990s, when he thought himself quite likely to become Prime Minister one day.

Town planning thoughts

Since the recent contretemps began, and in fact for long before that, I have been struck by the quite pleasant layout of many of the newer Israeli towns and settlements. Wide main streets, plenty of green spaces and trees, an absence of litter. What a contrast to Gaza!

Of course, part of that is by reason of the “apartheid“-style socio-economic situation in Israel/Palestine, and parallels South Africa in the pre-ANC days. That, however, is not the whole truth. I have seen some of the cities and towns in the Middle East, particularly in Egypt, and some look not much different to Gaza.

Well of course the proper purpose of NATO, the “parrying” of Soviet expansionism, disappeared along with the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, over 30 years ago. Now, it is basically the battering-ram for the New World Order (NWO) conspiracy.

The Israeli Jews have been carrying out atrocities of that sort for a long time; decades. Do they really think that they can do so endlessly, without any retribution? Look at the past month or so, compared to what was open to the Palestinian Arabs in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, or even much of the past 20 years. There has been a step-change.

Yes, Israel’s power is still dominant in the region, and especially over that of the Palestinian Arabs, but for how long?

Ukraine

I predicted throughout that Russia could not lose, strategically. I also predicted that the Kiev-regime counter-offensive would get nowhere. The “experts” said the opposite. They were wrong.

I have just seen a brief piece by Frank Gardner on ITV News. “Ukraine is in real trouble“, he now admits.

Still, Frank Gardner has an interesting background…https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Gardner_(journalist).

…but the Jews, both in Israel and in countries such as the UK, still whine that they are “victims”. Always “victims” of (incomprehensible) “antisemitism”…

The Israelis have advanced navigational and targeting aids, so strikes like that are cold-blooded and entirely deliberate. War crimes.

“What goes around comes around” [American saying].

I think that I recall seeing a short film about those Jew thieves. About (?) 20 years ago.

What interests me is the speed of the police response. Of course, no background or context is provided.

Migrant-invaders.

Parasites. Meanwhile, British people, including families and ex-soldiers, are sleeping in the streets or in substandard accommodation.

Labour Party drones are rubbish, of course, but the present Government has betrayed everything and everyone (except the Jewish lobby and Israel…). The misnamed “Conservatives” have to be eliminated at the 2024 GE, even at the cost of a Starmer “elected” dictatorship. One thing at a time.

Outright murder. This is not war but callous and indeed deliberate slaughter of the non-combatant population. It is far less merciful than the Reduction of the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943.

Ironic…

Late tweets

Near Kiev, in the village of Chaiki, Major Gennady Chastyakov, assistant to the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny, died.

Zaluzhny reported that his assistant Chastyakov died on his birthday. “An unknown explosive device went off in one of the gifts,” the commander-in-chief noted, adding that the causes and circumstances of death will be established during the pre-trial investigation. According to preliminary data, the grenade exploded while he was opening the gifts – perhaps the device was in one of them.”

In the UK, the usual cacophany from (mostly Jewish) “human rights” lawyers has fallen silent. I wonder why?

Great Continental Rail Journeys

Was just watching one of those Michael Portillo rail journeys on TV, Vienna to Trieste. Interesting. Vienna railway station looks better now than the old one that I saw a couple of times in the 1980s.

More interesting to me was when Portillo mentioned that, in the several decades before the First World War, the population of Vienna had increased by 5x, but that the Jewish population of Vienna had increased by no less than 35x! That explains much.

The six cities of Europe with the greatest (absolute) numbers of Jews today (as of a couple of years ago) are Paris, Moscow, London, Kiev, Budapest, and Marseilles. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_population_by_city.

“Diversity”; our wonderful multikulti society…

Well, there’s a surprise (not).

Apart from anything else, older British people do not want to work for rubbish pay or, if on better pay, to be taxed through the nose so that money in huge amounts can be wasted on the sort of rubbish we saw during the “panicdemic” of 2020-2021, or on migrant-invaders posing as “refugees”, or on any other rubbish.

I agree with them (though I am now 66 anyway): I say— live on a lower spend-level, re-evaluate, live (as far as you can) off-grid (or at least cut off from the HMRC, DWP, professional and other leeches such as lawyers, accountants, estate agents etc), and plot the end of this society while seeding a new one.

The city [Bakhmut] sits on an important confluence of supply routes and, when fighting started at least, was seen as a vital staging point for assaults further into Donbas – particularly the nearby cities of Slovyansk and Kramatorsk.

Now, though, the battle is more symbolic than practical. Most analysts agree the blood price that Russia has paid trying to take Bakhmut – thought to be more than 100 troops per day – is not worth the value of capturing it.

[Daily Mail]

Perhaps but, if that city is so unimportant, why are the Kiev-regime forces also trying so hard to win there —at the cost of a similar number of casualties, probably— ?

[state of play as of 2-3 February 2023]

Kiev remains the jewel in the crown. If Russia can take Kiev and Kharkov, the war will be almost over. Maybe later this year.

Tweets seen

As I predicted, “Jack Monroe” will soon be supported only by loonies and the terminally naive.

Assuming that tweeter “@DaveMayhem” is not, er, “Jack Monroe” herself (she uses dozens of fake Twitter accounts).

In a way, the whole “Jack Monroe” thing has become a quite clever near-fraud, which has extracted rather large amounts of money overall.

Incidentally, that “DaveMayhem” tweeter (“Jack”?) uses the irritating Americanism “hate on“, rather than simple “hate“. Another black mark.

I have no idea whether “@ChrissieClarky” is another “Jack Monroe “sock account” or just another pro-“Jack Monroe oddity. Birds of a feather flock together, after all.

Actually, the “mental health” defence is quite clever because, first of all, it enables “Jack Monroe” to do more or less as she pleases— take money from the naive and well-meaning, drink herself silly, take drugs, spend money (mostly donated) like a drunken sailor etc; secondly, it gives a “reason” for the above defaults and, thirdly, makes any critics (or even those just trying to get their money back) seem like “bullies” and “trolls”.

When “Jack Monroe” closes down her Twitter account (as she has done at least three times even in the last few months) her supporters blame “trolls“, “bullies” etc, rather than noticing that, that way, she can avoid answering embarrassing questions about her extraction and misuse of money…

I see plenty of the well-meaning saying that “Jack Monroe” should stay off Twitter, and/or get “help”. Why would she do that? It has been Twitter, and her whole social media facade, that (together with msm promotion) has built her “career” as a supposed champion of the food-poor, and has given her (via Patreon etc) an income of —at least— several thousand pounds a month and possibly as much as £40,000 a month, but probably around £6,000 a month.

There were at one time 800 “mugs” paying “Jack Monroe” between £3.50 and £44 a month via Patreon alone! Partly due to Jewish TV cook Nigella Lawson’s promotion of her; Jay Rayner, the Jewish restaurant critic, was also applauding her at one time, but seems to have belatedly seen the light in recent months.

Even at time of writing today, 497 utter mugs are still signed up to her Patreon “grift”. That is actually a couple more than yesterday! Average (?) £10 a month = about £5,000 a month. A “nice little earner”…

Expect (even more) pervasive shambolic maladministration, uncontrolled embezzlement, and rampant corruption.

Back in May 2022, “Bootstrap Cook” was threatening all and sundry (including MP Lee Anderson) with her Jewish lawyer, but since then the lawyer in question (Mark Lewis), who may or may not be retained at present, has not emerged from his kennel to bark at anyone, at least not publicly, and it is now pretty obvious that, despite more “Jack Monroe” Twitter lies from time to time, Lee Anderson and Martin Daubney are not going to be sued by her.

Peel away the lies from “Jack Monroe” and there is nothing left, it seems.

More fake “refugees” (migrant-invaders)

So the biggest groups are Albanians and Indians now? Are any of the bastards arriving in rubber boats even arguably “refugees”? I doubt it.

More tweets

Partly true, though not the full picture. There is too much housebuilding, especially in the south of England; there is too much pesticide/herbicide use; the water companies are a disgrace; there is still a push for ever-more-intensive farming.

That stupid bastard, Tobias Ellwood, will not be happy until the UK is a stinking radioactive ruin.

I begin to think, looking at him now, that he is possibly part-Jew; not sure.
