All Quiescent on the Western Front [Mark Steyn]

...the problem is not the young lady bleeding to death on the sidewalk, but those seeking to "politicise" the event. If that does not seem terribly logical, you forget that, for most of the ruling elite, it is too late to "save" old France or old Germany, even if they wanted to; therefore, the best that can be done is to use the daily human sacrifices to accelerate the transition to whatever's next. Once you discern that that's all the plan there is, the statements of Merz and Macron calling on us to resist those who would "divide" us make perfect sense. It's not the guy stabbing a Parisian demoiselle who's being "divisive"; it's you for wanting to make a big deal out of it.

For a glimpse of how deep the psychosis goes, here is the BBC reporting on the opening of a new mosque in comparatively immigrant-free Japan:

Mohideen goes to the Osaka mosque every day for prayers and other duties as a member of the local Islamic community. He says he has never felt that his life was in danger.

You don't say. Yet the Beeb's Tokyo correspondent did say, and with a straight face - even as they're still hosing the blood off the sidewalks of two European capitals. Because actual victims of Muslims must never be allowed to distract us from the hypothetical victimhood of some blameless Mohammedan.

That narrative is set in stone in the western media: the footsoldiers abetting our demographic dispossession will never change their minds. To save your society, it will be necessary to press on without them.

Meanwhile, in America, just to underline the totality of the wasted years, the official observances of 9/11's 25th anniversary will take place under the...eye of New York's first Muslim mayor:

If you are pleased, great. Mark certainly writes well. I had to look up “favela”.

I like Mark’s writing, but it reads like a lot of the criticism of American elections. Once you accept that they are not elections, at all, it all makes sense.

Iran is NOT Ukraine and that is entirely the point. If Trump cannot execute on his plans, it is because of opposition from the Deep State, in my opinion.

Unfortunately, the Deep State will probably outlive Trump.

... seventeen-year-old Khadija Patel from Bolton visiting the House of Lords to receive her "British Citizenship Award" for "empowering young women". I am not entirely persuaded that it is seventeen-year-old Miss Patel under the body bag: it could just as easily be Benny Hill's diminutive bald-headed Ulster sidekick.

LOL funny and horror inducing at the same time.

<>By 2031 in England and Wales, the majority of primary-school pupils will be children of “foreign” parents: that’s to say, for those of you in the maternity ward right now, your kid will belong to the first generation of Englishmen to live as a minority in England <>

<>Will Englishmen submit to that? As Carl Benjamin points out, this will go on until the English decide it has to stop<>

Will Americans submit to an identical fate?

I believe so.

This is what submission to Islam looks like. At least King/Prince Charles is open about his visits to Mosques 🕌 for holidays!

Personally, I think preventing almost certain nuclear was very necessary.

That “almost certain” nuclear (?) has been just days away for at least three decades now ..
