summer patriot, winter soldier

they would not publish my comments at gates of vienna .... pfffftt, into the ether w/ jay .... so, i publish my comments here ....

friends, 

pamela geller is being taken to task for a post at a.shrugs, http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2011/06/tommy-robinson-any-rogue-elements-within-the-edl-that-go-against-our-mission-statement-will-be-remov.html#comment-6a00d8341c60bf53ef0154336288c2970c , which post consists almost entirely of a letter from tommy robinson of the english defense league, explaining that concerns she has voiced about edl are: 1.)acknowledged, and 2.) being addressed.

 

go to the link above, read the post, and then form your own opinions as to whether my characterization of the post is correct.

update:   more, here, http://wintersoldier2008.typepad.com/summer_patriot_winter_sol/2011/07/my-final-comments-on-gates-of-vienna-as-arbitrator-of-the-content-of-the-counter-jihad-in-europe-.html .  this is it.  i have concluded on the subject.  end update: 07.02.2011.

 

for having the temerity to post this note, and a preceding article, she is being excoriated by a group headed up by "gates of vienna" blogger, who styles himself baron bodissey.  whatever a baron bodissey is.  sounds like it ranks higher than "colonel."  at any rate, here is the link to the article, http://gatesofvienna.blogspot.com/2011/06/open-letter-to-pamela-geller.html .  i tried to post a comment at "gates of vienna," and was shunted off somewhere into the ether.

 

i am going to print below my comments at atlas shrugs, plus some additional observations made to another person in private correspondence.  i think the baron and his cohorts way off base, and they accuse ms. geller of misstating the situation, even in the face of robinson's letter to her which confirms her observations.  go figure.

pamela, friends:

out my way, n.e. oregon, usa, we say that opinions are just like nipples, everybody's got 'em. at least two.

but, pamela seems to be criticized for two things, 1.)not getting her facts straight, and 2.)causing a split in the counter-jihad movement.

as to no. 1, when i read tommy robinson's statement, he confirms that a certain segment in the edl have expressed anti-semitic statements, and pledges that segment shall be purged. he also recognizes that others may try to "... jump on the bandwagon ..." as well, and says there is no room for neo-fascism in the e.d.l.

pamela geller has spoken truth, and tommy robinson confirms this, and pledges that e.d.l. will do better. that seems evident enough to me.

as to no. 2, how does one cause a schism in the anti-jihad by speaking truth, and by insisting that the anti-jihad/nationalist movements remain free of any taint of anti-semiticism? now, let's go back in time a little bit. i will remind you that pamela geller's position in all of this remains unchanged over time. she was an early supporter of geert wilders, and got him his initial exposure in the united states: she endorsed him, but refused to endorse others because their positions on keeping their organizations free of anti-semitic and neo-fascist sentiments did not pass the "smell test" with her.

geert wilders passed. some others, in france and elsewhere, did not pass the sniff test, and no associations were formed with them.

she has always insisted that this initial litmus be passed, and she has turned down engagements with groups who were suspect.

this i know as fact. as personal knowledge, not opinion.

pamela, friends:

this goes back a ways, this business of trying to establish a bridge between american conservatives and the euro nationalist movements.

pamela geller, robert spencer, bat ye'or and others were in the forefront of this, when some of her critics were still suckling at their mama's titties, so to speak.

for her efforts, she received the blanket condemnation of one charles johnson, who you may remember was of some influence in the early days of the blogosphere before slipping into a well deserved obscurity taking boring photographs.

at one time, johnson enforced a rigid orthodoxy on such matters. and, the orthodoxy he tried to enforce on pamela geller was that all euro nationalists were neo-fascist and anti-semitic, by definition. pamela geller called "bullshit," and said it had to be determined on a case by case basis, and for those persons and groups that passed muster, passed the "sniff test" mentioned above, it only made good sense to join forces with them in the fight against the jihad.

well, she went "mano-o-mano" with johnson on this, and when she got done with johnson he looked like willie mccoy in croche's junk yard dog song, ... , tattered.

the point is, she has been constant.--

she has insisted on contact with the euro nationalists, and promoted them, when they have proven that they are not neo-fascist or anti-semitic. witness geert wilders, a great success for her.

she has not touched others, because they did not meet muster.

now, charles johnson [....] dictated neither her decision making process, nor her decisions in this. and, her critics with her posts on the e.d.l. will have no more influence with her thinking and decision making, no matter how much they jump up and down, and holler.

and, in the end, her decision making will prove sound. she will watch e.d.l., and if they run true to course of their stated goals, and neither anti-semitic nor neo-fascists elements hold sway, she will continue to support them. if they are compromised by the bnp, for instance, they will not be supported.

p.s. will someone please explain the difference between anti-semitic and neo-fascist to me? seems like in today's politics, one is simply the other. i would welcome having my thinking in the matter straightened out.

correction:

oops. did not go back to catch the "did not" in the charles johnson sentence.

it should read:

"now, charles johnson dictated niether her decision making process, nor her decisions in this."

my private letter, to a friend.--

______:

i remember when you decided to go after charles johnson, in defense of ___ and others who raised a pipsqueak's challenge to his orthodoxy.  and, then [they] were more or less duly chastised and brought back into line by his scathing criticisms, and the little pricks by a thousand deaths, the lizards's chorus.

i remember that you understood the risk entailed in defending those who cowered, to encompass the very loss of your blog and any standing in the anti-jihad movement.  but, you were impelled by principle to take your stand, and take your stand you did, and you sailed your little ship up next to the johnson/lizards armada, and opened fire.

and, these brave brave brave lads who attack you now, did not join in that defense of ___, and about all ___ could do was issue an occasional "tain't fair" whimper.

well, isn't it interesting now.  en mass, they attack you from departing from the orthodoxy they wish to impose on the matter.  they do not say that what you said of the edl was wrong, or based on misconception of fact, ... , they say only that you departed from their orthodoxy, and that by so doing, you have given the left a chance to cast asunder the unity that they have built.

again, they do so in the face [of the fact] that tommy robinson takes no exception to your remarks, and indeed more or less endorsed the accuracy of what you said by adamantly stating that the leadership of edl will not stand for any infiltration into its ranks of neo-fascist thought or anti-semitic thought.

___ and the others breathed a sigh of relief when you took them from under the yoke of johnson's orthodoxy.  and, now they try to impose a new orthodoxy of expression on you, that being their orthodoxy.  and, en mass, they censor you, and in a manner i assume they think exhibits bravery.

 

well, i have seen their bravery, and in the conspicuous absence of the same when they stood by and let you do single battle with johnson: they did not join the fight then, because they thought fighting johnson was a lost cause.  so, they cringed and cowered on the sidelines.

their bravery now is that of the small dog who barks from behind the fence, knowing full well that no matter the bark, no matter the threatened severity of the attack, that it is all bluster made from the safety of the knowledge that they will suffer no harm from this display.  in this, it is craven.  they know that you in all likelihood will not do much in response, because they know that you do not enforce orthodoxy, nor attempt to impose the utterances of your positions on others.

indeed, you are so far ahead of them in such matters, that they seldom have time to catch up before you are off on something else.  ___, his memory is indeed precious short.  as for e. s.-w., her memory is also precious short, as she owes a good deal of the exposure she gained in this country in support of her efforts to whom?  why, pamela geller, who paid her expenses to c.p.a.c., and gave her the opportunity to speak at other contemporaneous venues, on [her] nickel.

 

i think the thing to do is to walk up to the fence, that separates your "accusers" from you in fact, truth, and integrity and simply kick it for amusement, and see if it makes any of them squat and pee, and then to have done with them.

little small controlling people, who have not the capacity to think before they speak.  [nor, apparently the ability to read before they shoot their mouthes off, ... , they had only to read tommy robinson's letter to you, to know the falsity of their accusations.  it is all so very chickenshit on their part.]

.......

john 

update:  pamela geller comes to her own defense, and proves once again, that if you go after her, you'd better go after bear, because bear is what you are gonna get.  and, that bear has got teeth that bite and claws that rake.  http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2011/07/lord-of-the-flies-machiavelli-comes-to-the-blogosphere-.html#comment-6a00d8341c60bf53ef01543365b28e970c  .

i reprint a letter, my reply to that letter, and my own letter, just for the record.  and, might i add that i am well pleased that pamela has named "baron bodissey" as ned may, so that he may be seen in the light of day.  ...

the letters, the first from a very courageous lady in england, who changes my attitude a bit, as i had thought all the english had long ago abandoned the island.  there must be pockets of them remaining, hunkered down waiting for someone to lead them.  perhaps the e.d.l.?

It had to be said Pamela, it couldn't carry on the way it was.

Ironic that this witchhunt to oust Roberta et al, has in fact slightly backfired insomuch that it has helped to expose an untreated festering ulcer within the movement.

I want the EDL to grow and prosper into soomething good, a place for all people, from all walks of life. Not something which is a lighter version of the BNP or Stormfront, or one of many of their derivative splinter groups. It should be a welcoming movement for all people, that includes all classes, all religions, all colours.

It needs to be overseered by unbiased people, people without a divisive and hidden agenda. It can not be allowed to function without care or it will slip into the wrong hands to then turn into something it never set out to be.

It is shocking and sad that certain individuals have set-up an open letter against you. You, a brave woman, who on a daily basis faces so many threats because of your brave staunch fight against 'our' shared and deathly enemy, which threatens so many countries across the globe.

If these people did care about the EDL and are in agreement with EDL's Mission Statement, then why are they taking this stance against you? Why would they be against a divisive infiltration of the EDL being highlighted and made public. Surely, by their reaction they are denying the existence of a dubious core element which are attempting to hijack the EDL, therefore, it leaves a bigger question unanswered, and being so, leaves people to assume the worse.

I am just an ordinary person, with a family and extended family. My family for generations, just like many others, fought and lost their lives to keep this country safe and free - I want my country to be a safe and a good place for my family to live in, especially when I won't be here to help and protect them. I have no hidden agenda.

I wholeheartedly support my country the UK (I worry deeply about our future); I wholeheartedly support our brave and wonderful troops (like so many others, I too have family putting their lives on the line in foreign lands); I care and support Christians/Israel/Jews/Gays/Hindus/Sikhs (far too many to list) - these are all under threat. They will always have my undaunting support. I am just a very concerned and ordinary individual but one who knows that the EDL can be a good movement, kept safe in the right hands, never steering away from its original Mission Statement.

pamela:

bravo!!

your attempts to forge a working alliance with the euro & english nationalist groups goes back a long way, and indeed you have been excoriated by the left (in which i include charles johnson) for it, the left issuing blanket condemnations of such groups as antisemitic and fascist.

you said bullshit!! to such a bias, and have determined from the very first to work with groups that were: 1.)interested in carrying on the anti-jihad, 2.)supporters of israel, and 3.)tolerated no anti-semites or fascists in their ranks. this was your policy from the get go, and you also refused to let others define who was what, or to tell you what your thinking on a particular group should be.

geert wilders and his party passed the test. phillipe de winter did not quite make it, because his party did not weed out the objectionable elements. the bnp was summarily shunned, because of their blatant (and very british) anti-semitic & anti-israeli posture.

and, the e.d.l. met your criteria, so you recognized, promoted and have attempted to work with them.

the point is, each of your decisions has been made case by case, and on your criteria, and by your decision making process alone. and, more to the point, you have not let ned may and "dymphna" at "gates of vienna" dictate to you how all of this would go. in my opinion, this is the source of the animus toward you from "gates of vienna" and their various allies.

people have short memories, in general. i do not.

i remember not too many years ago when ned and "gates of vienna" came under attack from charles johnson and his lizard legions. you alone in the blogs defended him, and you took on charles johnson on this issue of european nationalists all by yourself, as others quailed on the sidelines. it is my opinion that ned may and "gates of vienna" would not be in business now, were it not for your singular efforts.

and, this is how you are repaid.

as to this post, i again say, bravo!! give 'em hell, pamela, for hell is what they deserve. what particularly galls me about all this, is that tommy robinson's letter to you acknowledges your concerns, admits them, and states that the e.d.l. is going to purge itself of the anti-semitic/neo-fascist crowd ... while ned and his cronies condemn you for raising that very point. what they have done is to condemn you for telling the truth.

they say you divide the anti-jihad. is it their point that the anti-jihad can only remain united by suppressing the truth of matters, and by muzzling its "members" from telling the truth in order to maintain unity? well, let us address that issue. whose "unity" are they striving to maintain, or put more bluntly, just who in the hell asserts "a party line" must be maintained in the anti-jihad, and just who in the hell asserts the prerogative to determine and discipline such a "party line?" well, i raise a rhetorical point, don't i, because the answer is obviously, ned may at "gates of vienna," the erstwhile "baron bodissey." just what the hell is a "bodissey," anyway? and, where does ned may get off in insisting on being able to determine the party line? to be the next charles johnson?

he can take a flying leap as far as i am concerned.

so, bravo!! keep it up. i have your "6" covered, and would charge the gates of hell to protect it, ... , or, even the "gates of vienna."

john bolton's remarks on iran's nuclear weapons project, as published at atlas shrugs ...

friends:

pamela geller at atlas shrugs has again published remarks made by john bolton before the american congress.  appearing as a senior fellow, the american enterprise institute, bolton spoke before the house committee on foreign affairs, united states house of representatives, on the subject of "iran/syria: next steps" with regard to the iranian/syrian nuclear weapons programs.  http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2011/06/text-john-r-bolton-remarks-before-committee-on-foreign-affairs-united-states-house-of-representative.html#comment-6a00d8341c60bf53ef014e8956789d970d 

as usual, bolton's remarks are concise, and his analysis nearly impeccable, with regard to the geo-political dangers posed by iran's nuclear program.  it is a metaphor of limited wit, and a reflection upon my inability to come up with something better, but allowing iran to have nuclear weapons is like giving your kid a loaded .44 magnum when he is a five year old.   not smart.

please go there, and read the entire text of bolton's remarks.

my letter in response to john bolton's recent remarks on the iranian/syrian push to nuclear weapons, posted in the comments section of atlas shrugs. http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2011/06/text-john-r-bolton-remarks-before-committee-on-foreign-affairs-united-states-house-of-representative.html#comment-6a00d8341c60bf53ef014e8956789d970d --

................................................

pamela, friends:

with regard to ambassador bolton's remarks: he makes a very telling point about iran/syria's nuclear weapons pretensions, and it is stated entirely as follows. neither nation can ever hope to reach parity with the western nuclear stockpile of weapons. therefore, their weapons do not trip the analysis supporting "mutually assured destruction." in short, neither nation could rely upon a "defensive" response to attack to destroy the u.s./west.

ambassador bolton rightfully remarks that this dictates that such weapons could only be used for "terrorism." i take a teensy weensy teeny tiny exception to this characterization, not because i disagree with it, but because i think that there is a bit of an omission in the description. that being, that not only are these weapons capable of rational use as "terror" weapons, but that they are also useful for weapons to initiate and sustain a nuclear attack upon another nation.

there is a distinction to be drawn between preemptive attack and terror attack. the heart of that distinction is the nation of israel.

the possibility of terror against a western nation is small, as it would invite overwhelming reprisal.

the possibility of a first strike/preemptive attack against israel is overwhelmingly likely. 1.)iran must realize that if israel believes iran has the capacity to attack it with nuclear weapons, then israel is very greatly tempted/pressured to attack iran to destroy its weapons production and delivery systems. iran will not have come this far just to see israel destroy the weapons systems it has just spent so much time, money and effort into developing, so the pressure is to use them upon israel before israel destroys them. it almost assures that iran will attack israel to prevent this from happening. 2.)i believe very firmly that in light of the growing anti-semitic thought in the west, and in "progressive circles" especially, that iran feels that if it attacks israel first with atomic weapons, and destroys israel so that it cannot strike back, that iran also feels that it will face no attack in retaliation from the west, the united states, from nato.

these are odds and pressures that iran will not be able to resist, and almost dictate that iran will use atomic weapons in a preemptive attack upon israel, once iran has developed the ability to deliver her weapons.

p.s. i have written on this extensively, in a paper entitled "the logic of war." you may look it up.  http://wintersoldier2008.typepad.com/summer_patriot_winter_sol/2008/05/war-and-logic.html  

 

seminal thoughts on a private response to fighting the jihad by western institutions .... and, by private individuals ....

 

friends:

the jihad does not attack the west via middle eastern governments.

they are too weak, too corrupt, too inept, and as the affair in libya shows, almost laughably inferior in military power to the west.

no, the jihad is waged very effectively by individuals possessed of faith and fervor, personal and institutional initiative, if not any particular level of efficiency or skill, and by islam as a religious institution with the imprimatur of religious faith in all its activities.

during the crusades, western religious institutions fought islam on the same basis.  the crusades were not waged by governments nor by countries, but by religious institutions who hired their own private military forces, and who often made those who filled the ranks and fought in those forces part of the religious institutions that waged war on islam.

the various orders of the knights templar, some of the most formidable warriors ever, were monks who lived on vast tracts of land whose ownership was given them by the churches, and who were exempt from tithing obligations and other forms of taxation.  they were horse mounted, and the heavy armor of their day.

in my view, it is time to re-institute the knights templar in the catholic church, and to establish a parallel jewish arm of secular/sectarian warriors, authorized not by government to fight islam, but by the institutions of the catholic, protestant and jewish faiths.

the governments of the west are of sufficient timidity or stupidity not to want to be in this fight.  

it is time, therefore, for the religious faiths to gear up and fight islam, to fight the islamic jihad attack that is as much directed at the western churches as it is against the western governments:  what in the hell do the catholics think is going on, when muslims gather for prayer on the courtyards of the great italian and french catholic cathedrals?  well, in case the cat lickers haven't figured it out, it is islam laying claim to that geography as land holy to the islamic faith.  if the european catholics had any balls, they would be out in those squares and court yards whacking muslim heads with axe handles, and sticking islamic butts with pitchforks, to the hilt.

in short, it is time for the western churches, and the western laity, to go out and organize "provo arms" to do the wet work, ... , e.g., assassinations, target killing, influence killing, and the like, aimed at precisely those imams and ayatollahs who approve, argue for, and organize and recruit muslims to wage the jihad against the west.

 

it is time to fight fire w/ fire, just about all their is to it.

right now the muslims have free rein/reign this sort of thing, directing the terror towards influence makers in the west.  yes, they would kill geert wilders in a heart beat, if they could get to him, and i should suspect that nicholas sarkozy would not be far behind.  you and me, too, for that matter.

consider that.

and, consider this as well.  it is quite probable that islam has made several attempts against the catholic pope, and they would have no hesitancy in going after the archbishop of the anglicans, in england where he sleeps, if only it were worth running the risk of rousing him from his self enforced slumber.  as he is right now, he is a more valuable asset to islam alive than dead, so it is not worth the bother.

the west has the historical blue print before it.  the crusades were a mixed success, but they served one rather laudable purpose, and that was in keeping islam in the middle east.  well, it is time to put islam back into its sandbox, and it is time to use the techniques of the crusades all over again.

some of the knights templar are still in existence, as for example the knights of malta, and some others. time to fetch up the papal bulls/encyclicals from the vatican libraries, dust them off, and reinvigorate them, to get the pope to fire 'em up, same from the orthodox and others.  it doesn't have to be done with a whole lot of fanfare, it could be done clandestinely.  in fact, rather than fielding whole armies, discrete covert operative forces could do much to blunt the attack of jihad, by being very selective in their operation.  must be a few guys on seal team 6, for instance, who are dedicated catholics.

and, it is high time to get the approval of the rabbinical scholars for such work.  modeled after the mossad and shin bet in terms of operational capacity, but civilians, lay persons of the faiths to do it: i should think that the student bodies of rabbinical schools would be a very fertile ground to recruit operatives, who could have a firm religious fervor as a basis to do the nasty work called upon them.  and, it would be a religious calling, for sure.

the japanese have the ninja tradition, and the various hindu sects also have their assassin types.

time to bring them to bear upon islam, and go after the imams and ayatollahs at the major teaching institutions, and to target muslim brotherhood/hamas/hezbollah front types.

it is readily apparent who should be targeted for killing.  they bray like jackasses at the top of their lungs the pernicious jihad doctrines, and they should simply be silenced.

they do it to us.  time to do it to them.  and, ex mossad and shin bet operatives would do it best in the middle east, and the training that they could provide to young rabbinical students and laity of the jewish faith would be invaluable.  the knights templar would do well to consider recruiting out of the ranks of "retired" military operatives from the german, english and american special forces, though i don't believe the french military to be a very fertile ground for qualified operatives.  maybe as field chefs and wine steward, but not as operatives.

there is plenty of firm moral ground for religious institutions and churches to get involved in this sort of thing, to protect the flock, to protect the churches as religious institutions, and by which to fight the evil of jihad and the islamic faith.  for, it is evil.  and, i doubt that you would ever be able to get st. augustine, or st. thomas acquinas, or thomas moore to ever disagree with me.  and, no, i don't rightly give a shit about what the daily kos would think on the matter, as they are in league with the devil on so many fronts as to defy description.

the catholic church, the jewish faith, and the members of those faiths who live in the west and in the middle east are more than justified under the doctrines of just war and self defense to take up the mace and the cudgel and the dagger, and the suppressed rifle and pistol to fight the jihad, and to fight its warriors.

the warriors of the jihad should be killed, and killed ruthlessly wherever they are encountered, and whatever role they play in the jihad, whether as financiers, facilitators, recruiters, proselytizers, or as field operatives and fighters.  also included and targeted should be journalists, broadcasters and reporters who facilitate jihad operations, and who are complicit in filming and reporting and disseminating them.  finally, those clerics, imams and ayotollahs, as well as those clerics who facilitate jihad by teaching it at the great islamic teaching institutions should be killed, and killed ruthlessly.

it is time.

our sovereigns will not do it for us, and indeed, some of them are probably complicit in the jihad if not directed by it.  it is time for our religious institutions to step up, and time for us as individuals to assert our rights of self defense.

it is simply time to wage war against islamic jihad on all fronts, and all levels.

john jay @ 06.0.2011

p.s.  in this we are morally and religiously justified, both in terms of religious doctrine, and in terms of pursuing good in the name of the g_d who created us.

 

kill 'em all, and let g_d sort 'em out ...

this was at one time the official motto of an agency of the united states government, namely, the 101st airborne division.  well, at least someone sold t-shirts to that effect.

hey, if it's u.s. government policy, who am i to object to it?  who am i to question the wisdom of t-shirt salesman and commerce?

nonetheless, some people take umbrage when i say something along this line in response to this muslim outrage or that islamic travesty, and suggest that i am a less than temperate human.  daily kos suggests that i am barbaric, based on their interpretation of other sentiments i have posted.

well, so be it.--

i find myself ever more looking to this sentiment in light of what i see happening in the world.  now, in actual point of fact, i am rather a gentle passive soul, and would like nothing better than to mind my own business, watch the sunsets, and get on with things.

but, i view this increasingly as a world in which others take this view of me, and look at me as the stumbling block to be eliminated in their pursuit of their aims and objectives.  and, from my view of things, these people not only are thinking this sentiment, but they are acting upon it and carrying it out day by day.

i speak, of course, of our "friends" the muslims, acting as they do, in accord with the basic tenets of islam.  and, the basic tenets of islam are, "kill 'em all, and let g_d sort 'em out."

they of course call the application of these basic instructions & directions to all muslims, as found in the koran, the jihad.  now, i mentioned earlier that muslims consider me a stumbling block to the attainment of their goals, because to them i am an infidel, and a recalcitrant one as i am not going to convert over to their side, and i am not going to pay dhimmitude taxes, nor live in subjugation to them.

so, i am to be eliminated.

so, following the tenets of the koran and mohammed, they have set out to eliminate my kind via the jihad.  the amazing part of it is, they make absolutely no bones about it, and increasingly muslim clerics trumpet the fact that the followers of islam have got the old jihad spirit back once more, and are out there enthusiastically and efficiently killing people the world over, to bring "peace" to the world.

touching, ain't it?

except, they are out to get you, and they are out to get me.

now, again, let me emphasize something.  they are not just talking theory in such matters.  the clerics of islam preach such doctrine, they encourage it, and they praise it when it occurs.   they do not criticize such actions, but, they praise it, and say that it is in accordance to the tenets and dictates of their faith.

and, they are here.  and, everywhere they go, the pushy bastards want concessions to their faith, and they intimidate and threat and bluster and bluff to get them, and, they kill.

i say, get rid of them from are midst.  they do not want to live in accommodation and as neighbors, they want to live as conquerors and rulers.  i don't make this up, this is what they say.  and, their way of conquest is by the sword, and i do not mean that as metaphor, but as actual physical fact.

so, i say, in the rudiments and rubric of self defense, "kill 'em all, and let g_d sort 'em out," and i am not the least damn bit apologetic about it.

it has come to that, it is time for it, and probably the sooner the better.  before it is too late.

john jay @ 06.20.2011

p.s.  it seems to me that the situation with islam reduces itself to this rather simple proposition, for societies, civilizations and individual persons.  and that is, islam has made it into a kill or be killed world, or a kill or be subjugated world.

so, were i you, i would become proficient in defending my self, and the persons and property of my friends.  and, i would become proficient in defending my heritage, my ideals, my religious values, my political values and my way of life.

it is that simple.

 

the 6.8mm spc and the 110 grain hornady bullet versus the 115 sierra bullet ...

i have been using the 115 grain sierra bthp bullet, part no. 1815, in my 6.8mm remington spc to good effect for some time, and like it sufficiently to have loaded a goodly number of rounds with that bullet.

recently another bullet has caught my eye, that being the 110 grain hornady, part no. 27200, and i have determined that i can load it to significantly higher velocity than the 115 grain sierra, with no apparent increase in pressure.

and, the hornady is obviously a bit "sleeker" than the sierra, and despite being 5 grains lighter is a bit longer and "pointier," which suggests very good flight characteristics, as well.

hey, what's not to like about that?

what i cannot do, much to my disappointment, is make the hornady bullet shoot as accurately as the sierra bullet.  this day i load the rifle and ammo in a day pack, hiked out to the range, and had a bit of a shoot off between the "contending" bullets.  now, keep in mind, there is nothing definitive about any of this, and your rifle may shoot the hornady bullet better than the sierra, and you may be able to take advantage of the added velocity from the hornady.

but, i was not so lucky.

i arrived at the range, and it was cold, cloudy, blustery and intermittently wet, ... , not at all a great day for testing the accuracy of bullets.  and, of necessity since i hiked out carrying my things in a day pack, i was not loaded down with a lot of shooting accessories: as a matter of fact, i pulled the rifle from a double shotgun case, put it together, put the case over a couple pieces of concrete block, and the rifle over that, and shot.

there were no pads, shooting rests, or other mechanical aids involved in the shooting.

i shot for group the hornady bullet in front of 29.4 grains of h-322 powder first.  i fired a fouling shot first, then five bullets into a group, with another bullet in the magazine to make sure the five fired rounds all chambered the same way: sometimes the last bullet in a magazine will shoot to a different point of impact.  don't ask me why, they just do.

that first group measured 2.335" from center to center of the most widely dispersed two bullet holes in the group.

next, i fired five rounds of the sierra bullet in front of 28.2 grains of h-322, from a magazine that has been lying around the house for a couple weeks, and from a lot of rounds in which my notes indicate that the cases had been used in "multiple" loads.  the sierra rounds clustered in a group measuring 1.138" from the most widely dispersed bullet holes.  two shots were somewhat low, while the other three were in a nice little triangle measuring app. .520": of the two lower shots, one was a "called" flyer, in that i knew the shot was errant as soon as i pulled the trigger.  in other words, it was my fault, and not the bullet's.

to conclude the test, i fired five more shots using the hornady bullet, but loaded a bit hotter at 29.7 grains.  that group measured 2.14" from the most widely dispersed shots, but four of those bullet holes were within 1.355" from each other, measured center to center of the bullet holes.  in addition, and perhaps significantly, they were within .5" approximately vertically, but were strung out horizontally 1.335" apart.  while shooting that group, i detected no physical movement or aiming error on my part that would explain the shot that expanded the group so much, which was high and to the left of the other shots.  i can offer no explanation for why it got where it got, in other words.

so, i am going to try yet once again with the hornady's, and i will up the powder charge a 10th or two 10th's of a grain or so, to see if i can close the gap between the bullets a bit.  the group i shot with the sierra's was pretty typical, but, i expected better with the hornady's.

if i cannot get it to shoot a little better with the h-322, i will try some 4198 just on the off chance it might shoot a little better.  we'll see.  but, for right now, the sierra's are looking pretty good.  goodness, i would love to be able to take advantage of the added velocity of the hornady bullet, and the superior ballistic co-efficient it promises, but that means little at range if i cannot close the groups a bit.

the 6.8mm spc and the 110 grain hornady bthp/wc bullet ....

well, hell.

it's june 18, and i am wearing a wool shirt to keep warm in the house.  in a normal year in these parts, i would be sweltering while the temperature flirted with 100+ degrees fahrenheit.

the battery on my cell phone is dead, and when i went out to get in the car and have store bought breakfast, i find that the car battery is, well, dead as a post too.

no one, and i mean no one, has sent me an email, and by this time of the morning i am usually inundated with bare titties, old car and old timey reminiscences, and letters of various degrees of patriotism or spirituality importuning me not to break the chain or face dire consequences.  hell, i haven't even got any bills in the mail.

so, ... .

i am cooking 4 link sausages in the pan, i am toasting a bagel, and i've got two eggs to bring the whole thing up just waiting on the coaster on the stove top.  and, a fresh brewed cup of coffee awaits on the counter.  no spuds, though.  fresh out of spuds.

i guess i will eat breakfast, and take my blood pressure pill.

well, hell.  nothing to be done about it, i suppose, except to go into the basement and load some ammo for pressure testing.

i have a new load i am developing for my 6.8mm remington spc, to be shot out of a 20" e.r. shaw barrel in an ar-15 barrel.  oops, some bagel just popped up in the toaster, back in a flash.--

i've been toying with a load consisting of a 110 grain hornady bthp, part no. 27200, in front of 29.3 grains of h-322 and remington cases and cci no. 200 large rifle primers.  it comes from the muzzle at about 2600 to 2625 feet per second, and gives early indications that it will shoot pretty well.

now, if you've been following this "saga" for the past several years, you will remember that my early attempts to get the e.r. shaw barrel to shoot didn't go very well, and i cussed the barrel.  but, when i finally followed some friendly advice received at the range, and went to a slightly faster powder range than what i had been shooting, ... , well, then, the rifle & e.r. shaw barrel began to exhibit very good accuracy.

it is to the point that if a load won't go slightly below an inch on a dependable basis that is not "satisfactory."  and, that's where i am right now.  the above load is a bit erratic right now, so i am going to mess around, increase the load/decrease the load by a tenth of a grain or so, and see if i can find a sweet spot.  if i do, i will rustle up a couple hundred rounds of ammo, or so, and see how it goes.

and, i came across some funky old 7mm bullets the other day, and i may do some experimenting with them.  i have some friends who do estate sales, yard sales with a passion, and one of them came up with a pristine box of herter's 175 grain round-nose .284 caliber bullets.--

dang me.  i made a boo boo flipping one of the eggs.  oh, well.

got to looking at the bullets, and they sort of impressed me with being kind of sleek for round nosed bullets.  so, i am gonna load some up in my seven mag just for shits and giggles, and load them to a fairly moderate velocity, say 2650 to 2700 feet per second.  they can be my "timber loads."  plus, i think the old dears will look pretty good, in a sort of bette davis entering middle age sort of way.

but, back to the subject at hand.

when i find a sweet spot for this load, then i will load it in production quantities, and see how she shoots then.  it may become a "substitute standard" load for the load i thought that i had settled on, that being the 115 grain sierra at 2500 feet per second plus.

it shoots wonderfully, when i do my part.

well, to breakfast.

john jay @ 06.18.2011

p.s.  i'd starve as a short order cook, ... , i always goober the eggs.  oh, well ... .

[note to self: far too many "well(s)."  oh, well.]

the "weiner's wiener" saga ... and, now begins the rehabilitation & redemption of anthony wiener ...

update:  reader sDee brings this to my attention:

sDee said:

More on the amazing coincidence: http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/06/the_muslim_brotherhood_and_weiner.html http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/revealed-weiners-in-laws-secret-muslim-brotherhood-connections/

well, it would appear that now begins the rehabilitation & redemption of huma weiner, and of hillary clinton as well, ... , "mrs. wiener" to explain why she is a muslim brotherhood operative, and "mrs. clinton" to explain why she employees a muslim brotherhood operative in the state department.  my good lord, what has become of this country, a nest for traitorous vipers?  end update.

word is hitting the cybernet that anthony weiner intends to resign from congress.  (no, barnie frank is "holding fast" to his grip on his "seat."  as bugs bunny once noted, "it is to laugh, it is to cry.")

good.

and, now begins the rehabilitation of anthony wiener as a legitimate voice of the left.

not so good.

a little public contrition, but no so much as to be "unseemly."  then, some treatment and therapy, the successful result of which will be the reappearance of body hair upon his previously shaved body.  (not to put too fine a point on it, but the famous picture of weiner's wiener taken from below his scrotum reveals the absence of pubic hair, e.g., he either has none, or else it was shaved to make his cock and ball set more photogenic.  hey, i was a lawyer.  we notice things like this, for what that is worth.)  then, he will take a discrete leave of absence from public view, say, about 4 months.

and, then, just like elliot spitzer who is well along the path to his complete behavioral rehab and political redemption, anthony weiner shall take a job as a political analyst on one of the news networks, and he shall appear as a controlled, disciplined and restrained commentator on the affairs of the public, if not his own.  he will be scrubbed clean, as a new born penny, his penance well along the way to having been paid, and served.

"hey, he did his time."  this shall be the refrain.  and, once again, as elliot spitzer shall have done before him, he will reenter politics: and, perhaps even huma. (just weiner's wiener, not spitzer's wiener, ... , thought i would make that clear.)

he will once again run for office, from his old congressional district, is my guess.  in the interim, no one of any consequence from the democratic party shall occupy his seat.  count on it.

now, i did my time on the "perv patrol" both as a prosecutor and a defense attorney.  once during that tenure of plying applied human behavioral psychology, i asked a psychiatrist what was the chance that a client of mine might actually cease being a pedophile as a result of psychiatric care and counseling, during and after incarceration.  she replied to me, and i was probably about 55 years of age at the time, "john, how successful do you think that i would be in talking you out of your sexual orientation, how successful would counseling and treatment be in changing your sexual preferences and appetites at this time?"

it is not necessary, is it, for me to pass "sentence" at this juncture on the success of anthony weiner's rehabilitation, is it, really?

john jay @ 06.16.2011

 

p.s.  maybe his first network gig could be called, "the view --  from the wiener."  hey, just thinkin' out loud.

 

in all fairness to the archbishop of canterbury ... this, at jihadwatch ....

i have savaged the archbishop of canterbury, leader of the anglicans, for his indifference to the fate of christians being slaughtered in the middle east by muslims.  as i have savaged the pope of rome, the head of the catholics.

perhaps the archbishop is not as brain dead as i have asserted.  nor as spiritually thick.  i do not, however, apologize for my prior polemic, as i think the place of the sheepdog is precisely between the flock and the wolf, and not comfortably on his blanket before the fireplace at company headquarters.  if the archbishop wants to be archbishop, he should step up and protect the flock, and be archbishop.

this post, at jihadwatch, as the archbishop speaks against islam's predations, http://www.jihadwatch.org/2011/06/archbishop-of-canterbury-christians-in-the-middle-east-face-extremist-atrocities.html#comments .  

in my view, although this is a thoughtful statement, he needs to do more.  he needs to go to the middle east, face islam, and beard the lion in his den.  well, perhaps he is disinclined to be martyred, though i think the risk of it comes with the job: he has taken the benefits and comforts of the post, and now he should bear some of the same burdens faced by his flock.

but, it is a start, the statements he has made, and shows that he is at least aware of the problems.

i will give him that, and without qualification.

john jay @ 06.15.2011

conscious betrayal or delusional ineptitude? what have the e.u. technocrats intended by islamic immigration? the geert wilders verdict will tell us much ....

well, which is it?

conscious purposeful betrayal?

willful stupidity, a delusional & arrogant belief in their diplomatic "skills?"

in an earlier post, http://wintersoldier2008.typepad.com/summer_patriot_winter_sol/2010/01/the-radical-left-so-despises-europe-that-it-intends-to-destroy-it-by-muslim-immigration-and-i-have-t.html   , i argued that euro leftist technocrats were bent on the destruction of the european nation states in order to elevate the euro union into uncontested supremacy as a unitary state system on the european continent, and that they meant to use muslim immigration as the device to work that destruction. 

that article clearly stood for the proposition that the faceless dickless mollusk technocrats meant to betray their european heritage upon the alter of collectivist socialism.  the above post was linked at european blogs, http://missioneuropakmartell.wordpress.com/2010/01/14/the-radical-left-so-despises-europe-that-it-intends-to-destroy-it-by-muslim-immigration-and-i-have-the-source-documents-from-the-euro-union-and-the-euro-med-association-agreements-to-prove-it/ , and,   http://euro-med.dk/ . 

in the post immediately proceeding this post, http://wintersoldier2008.typepad.com/summer_patriot_winter_sol/2011/06/the-muslim-brotherhood-and-the-death-of-the-european-union-.html , i have taken the more moderate stance that islam's head long rush back to the dark ages in the middle east exposed a colossal miscalculation on the part of the faceless dickless mollusks, in that their bureaucratic approach of using diplomacy, … ,  e.g., the europ med association agreements signed between the euro med/union and the arab/muslim governments of the mediterranean basin, … , as a buffer between the european states and the relentless demographic invasion of islam has proved quite misguided.

i suppose that article stood for the proposition that the leftist technocrats who really run the euro union were frightfully and monumentally in error when they thought that they could further graft the european model of statist stability onto the political and social turmoil that is traditional islam.

in short i have allowed for the possibility that in a fit of willful stupidity, the mollusks had simply chosen the wrong olive branch to graft onto the european root stock and heritage.  and, that they betray europe not willfully, but by diplomatic ineptitude.

well, there is a tension there, isn’t there, between the underlying assumptions of the two posts?  perhaps an irreconcilable tension.

in my intellectual defense, if i need to mount one and i am not sure that i do, it is simply to remark that it is hard to know the beliefs and motivations of persons who never reveal what their motivations are, who never assert them let alone defend them through the process of open societal debate, and who are accountable to no one.   indeed, it is my feeling that a lot of what i have written about with regard to the aims of the euro med organization remains largely unknown to the european populace. 

but, given these difficulties in trying to divine what the mollusks mean for the rest of europe, and in evaluating whether their policies have historical vigor and legs, there is one thing which is going to happen pretty soon that might lend some insight into the query, do they mean to purposefully betray europe and sell an entire heritage down the river, or are they simply the last in a long line of arrogant fools who think that they can control and drive history by "policy" manipulations?

i speak, of course, of the upcoming verdict in the geert wilders show trial.

i have written previously on the subject of the dutch show trial, and the euro union legal system. some of these article bear re-examination within the content of this article.  here, http://wintersoldier2008.typepad.com/summer_patriot_winter_sol/2010/01/no-1-trilogy-on-wilders-hate-speech-trial-the-private-letters-re-european-tyranny.html   here, http://wintersoldier2008.typepad.com/summer_patriot_winter_sol/2010/01/no-3-of-the-trilogy-trilogy-on-wilders-hate-speech-trial-it-is-time-for-a-marbury-vs-madison-moment-.html , and, here, http://wintersoldier2008.typepad.com/summer_patriot_winter_sol/2010/01/you-ask-how-will-the-europeans-oppose-the-euro-union-policies-on-immigration-i-answer-they-cannot-as.html 

but, to continue with this essay.--

in my view, if wilders is summarily found guilty of whatever it is that the trial court eventually says he is guilty of, (and g_d only knows what that might be, since the nature of the charges has never been fixed and the nature of what wilders did to be found guilty of something never precisely defined, has never precisely been fixed, … , and, “fixed” it may very well be, eventually), and if he is fined, imprisoned and his party barred from participation in electoral and procedural participation in the governance of the netherlands, then we may quite rightly regard the leftist technocrats as intending the outright naked betrayal of europe, into the hand of islam.

if this is the end sought by the mollusks, it seems to me a fool’s errand, because they will be the first to fall under islam’s knives.

if, however, the delay in announcing wilders’s verdict, (and neither joe stalin nor mao nor adolph hitler ever dithered over a show trial in such a manner) means that some sort of accommodation is being searched for between the parties to the rising perception in germany, england, scandanavia and italy that multiculturalism is a colossal mistake and failure, then perhaps my more moderate stance may gain some sort of added vigor and vitality.

think of what that might mean.  it suggests to my mind that the technocrats have, in fact & in actuality, some perception and realization that ethnic and social harmony cannot be achieved between the indigenous european peoples, and the interloping islamic immigrants who show that they are absolutely disinclined to view the euro union as a melting pot of cultures, but, instead, thoroughly evidence every intention of simply taking over.  it suggests to my mind, that the technocrats may have finally seen and perceived the limits upon a legalistic diplomacy based on the notion that islam could become “european” in mode and outlook and expression, and that they may realize that they were in error.

if wilders is offered some sort of deal whereby he can remain free, whereby he can continue to speak, and whereby he gains continued participation in european and dutch politics, it suggests to me, quite strongly, that the faceless balless dickless technocrats of the euro union probably recognize that they have made a tremendous diplomatic and political boo boo in this euro med bullshit, and that they might be looking to the likes of geert wilders to fish them out of it.

if they do extend this sort of arrangement to wilders does not mean that they have cured themselves of or shed their intellectual, political and  bureaucratic arrogance.

they will try to control wilders.

wilders will not be controlled.  oh, if found guilty, he will report to jail.  he will serve his time.

and, he shall emerge from jail triumphant, for he shall be vindicated of his views by social developments in europe.  if he survives jail, and is not assassinated.  if he survives jail, he shall simply overwhelm dutch politics.

but, if he remains free on the conditions of a deal, he will simply continue to operate as he has and he shall dare the dutch authorities to again prosecute him.

he hasn’t sounded very contrite before the tribunal, has he?  and, he has offered them no concessions, and by his reference to former dutch martyrs in the same breath as he describes his present prosecution, he has told the dutch authorities, and the dutch people, precisely what his aims are, and how he will accord himself in the future.  this suggests to me that wilders believes that he operates from a position of strength, that he has considerable leverage with the public on these issues, and that he is challenging the dutch prosecutors to find him guilty, if they dare.  i think he believes that they do not dare, and that he perceives their reticence in doing so to offer the chance for him to emerge from the trial fully functional in dutch politics.

this much we know about wilders, because he is not shy about saying what he believes, and he is at no loss in his ability to explain why he holds to his views, and from whence they spring, and that is his notion of dutch liberty and heritage.  and, i think that he has rightfully seized upon that heritage and its history of revered dutch martyrs to gain public support hostile to the euro union law, and hostile to euro union restrictions upon speech being imposed upon a dutch politician.

we shall see.  whether i am right, and whether i correctly understand wilders's stance in the matter.

but, we know nothing of his accusers, do we, those dickless wonders, who cannot even define precisely what wilders has done, except displease the dutch authorities.  that is what he has done.  they may as well have served him with charges that summarized his offense as follows, “boy, you done pissed us off, and royally.”

we shall know more of his accusers, when they read the verdict.

“guilty, as charged,” means precisely that his accusers mean to destroy europe and its nations, and replace it with a multiculturalists’ tyranny obtained and run by and disciplined & administered by islam.   the precious little administrative codes for which shall be written by the mollusks, who will have become muslim mollusks, but which shall be governed by sharia:  smart little dickless fellows, and on very small and slippery leashs.

it means my previous post, adverted to above, was the more correct view.

“you done pissed us off, but, you can run free as long as you … ,” means precisely that the feckless dickless accusers understand that they have committed major political error by having islam run reckless and rampant upon european soil, after their forefathers spent countless thousands of gallons of blood trying to prevent that very thing.

it means that my recent post may be correct, and that maybe, just maybe, the euro union placed itself in this fix regarding islamic immigration simply as a result of diplomatic miscalculation, and that maybe there is a peaceful way out of this mess with regard to the euro union's role in creating it.

we’ll see.

right now, i try to divine chicken entrails that have not yet been spilled, and scattered upon the marble tables.

we will know more fully, more fully in terms of comprehension as to the technocrats' motivations, at geert wilders’s verdict.  do you think that these issues are not being talked about by the euro union technocrats, as they essay what the diplomatic future for the euro union is, and what part they will play in it, and, indeed, whether the european union can withstand this muslim immigration gaffe as well as its economic difficulties.  the currency goes to hell, the monetary policy is exposed as a joke, and the very premise for the euro med association agreements and the euro med itself is exposed as a cruel delusion.

and, we will know better, in arriving at a due and proper estimation of things, if europe reels and lurches its way along its path, or whether this whole thing devolves into secular and sectarian civil war, and a dedicated effort to expel islam from europe.  and, there is some irony here.  because all along, the technocrats have preached and delude themselves as well into believing that only they could avoid civil violence by their machinations and controls.  and, in the end, what shall lead to bloody conflict, perhaps hundreds of years in the resolution, was the policy that flowed from the pretense that societies can be controlled by faceless dickless feckless balless technocrats.

who chose to work from the shadows without explaining what they were about and what they were up to, but, tried to intimidate and impose tyranny upon an entire european population, from those shadows.  in my view, they deserve the yardarm and the lamppost.

the muslim brotherhood and the death of the european union ....



the muslim brotherhood and the death of the euro union.—

 

history is replete with monuments to the folly of human pretense, see “ozymandias,” below.  i suppose time stretches, is trackless in the end, as the sand.

 

in the middle east, the sands of time prepare to swallow up the diplomacy of the euro union, and in the mindless death throes of the middle eastern nation states as they slip back into the timeless perpetuity of islam’s medieval society, we see the probable collapse of the euro union as well.

 

the euro union did not choose  …  wisely.

 

for in the islamic drive to pan arabia, déjà vu all over again, we see the death of a very ill considered european foreign policy, driven by the sallow faced mollusks of euro union bureaucracy, dying in the shriveling shallow of a betraying sea, as the rationale behind the euro med partnership gasps for sustaining air, grasps for the wraiths of its diplomatic rational slipping into the distant sands.

 

the euro med agreements/partnerships were driven by the euro union’s belief that by dragging its southern mediterranean “cohorts” into modern economic reality and political stability the ravages of islam as religious and political doctrine could be at least moderated, if not contained, if not destroyed.  in these euro med partnership agreements the euro union was willing to pour fortunes into the islamic world to improve its infrastructure, provide travel and unrestricted access to european countries to arab citizens, to build joint universities, and to attempt to integrate feudal societies, and feudal people, into modernity.

 

europe was so eager to attempt to control islam in this manner, and to gain islam’s infinite pools of cheap labor, that it was willing to allow the immigration of 30 million islamic workers into the continent, over the next 20 to 25 years.  and, in this scheme, was a pretty thin attempt, if not entirely foolhardy, to gain some control over islam’s illegal flood of immigrants into europe.

 

and, as we see with the prosecution of geert wilders in the netherlands, the faceless & dickless bureaucrats of the europe union were more than willing to suppress the last vestiges of europe’s nationalist movements in order to promote their schemes.

 

with the rampant stampede to islamic fundamentalism that is occurring all over the middle east this intellectual folly dies a swift death.  it has to.  but, of course, the euro union’s leaders have not quite tumbled to this fact, witness the witless folly of the e.u. and the united states backing the libyan “rebels” as they attempt to overthrow omar quack daffy: i read just the other day, that u.s. interests had purchased libyan oil from rebels in control of an oil field somewhere in the trackless sands, as the u.s. and the e.u. rush to plunder the dictator’s holdings.

 

but, it is a fool’s errand, this plunder of oil.

 

because islamic fundamentalism controls iran, and it will soon control libya, egypt and syria where hezbollah will teach assad the stupidity of letting islamic fundamentalism's proxy armies people lebanon, and function in syria.  turkey comes under the thrall once again of islam, and rushes headlong into barbarism.

 

the house of saud made a bargain with the devil when it allowed egyptian wahid’s into saudi arabia under a temporary truce, and when islam assumes the reins in the above countries, the house of saud and the other emirates in that part of the world, (nothing much more than self contained oil fields) will be in the thrall of the ayatollahs, imams and sheiks.

 

and, this is the great fallacy of the euro union’s diplomacy with the nation states and the euro med agreements.  because the nation states shall be no more.  they will exist merely as shells, as alter ego’s, to the rule of islamic clerics.

 

the rational or ethos of the euro union began as a trade organization, and as a way to regulate and standardize currency values throughout europe, to regulate trade, markets and the movement of goods free of duty and restriction.  but, as it grew, its aspirations also grew politically and diplomatically, so that the basic trade agreement used in the euro med partnership agreements also became a diplomatic tool.

 

the euro med aspired to replace american military and trade hegemony in the mediterranean basic, in africa, and throughout the rest of the world with european diplomatic hegemony.  it desired to rule the world, or to have a dominate influence in its running, without ever having to fire a shot or to build an aircraft carrier task force group.

 

it desired to steal the thunder from the u.s. by diplomacy.

 

and, it desired to shield itself from the islamic hordes of north africa by diplomacy.

 

and, all of that has collapsed, and all that remains of this effort are stone trunks standing in the sand, the visage of european supremacism  lying with a cold sneer buried in the sand.   and, of course, it retains a legacy of binding diplomatic agreements and obligations made to governments in return for the promise of those governments to restrain islam, … , and the governments have ceased to be.

 

the basic dynamic in all of this, is that the european bureaucrats have seen a primary rationale for their existence, and that of the euro union, disappear under their feet in the shifting sand.  they have prosecuted geert wilders and others who have spoken out against the influx of islam into europe, only to find the left’s preachment's in favor of multiculturalism eroding before them, only to find a european populace immensely hostile to islam and muslims, and immensely hostile to the idiot bureaucrats who got them into this situation.

 

they have outstanding legal obligations with arab nations with regard to muslim immigration, and concessions made to the religious liberty extended of islam and its followers at the price of restraining the religious liberty of its own citizens.

 

not to mention the violence done to any fundamental notion that europeans have free speech, let alone free speech with regard to the religious liberty and heritage of indigenous europeans.

 

it is my belief that had the muslim brotherhood had the good sense to have been patient, to have allowed the euro med trade partnership/social integration diplomatic contracts operate for a period of 30 or 40 years or so, that by the next century islam and the muslim penis and vagina would have completed the demographic conquest of europe.

 

but, they could not restrain their zeal, and they could not restrain islam’s drive to a renaissance of jihad.  and, they had to go and crow about it, and now they are in the process of toppling the very governmental structures that would have given them the key to europe via the euro med agreements.

 

now, instead of giving way to this steady erosion of their nations, the europeans are going to be visited to the spectacle of islam asserting sharia once more over the entire middle east.  they are going to see the persecution of christians and jews, they are going to see the persecution and subjugation of women and young girls, they are going to see pedophilia and homosexual exploitation of boys, run absolutely rampant and unrestrained as islam imitates the behavior and ethos of mohammed.

 

and, not even the left, in its various guises, can disguise it from even the most credulous european.

 

the cat is out of the bag.

 

so, oddly enough, i view the “arab spring” with some favor, just as i viewed the iranian suppression of the student revolts.  for one reason, and one reason only.

 

it puts islam on display, in all its medieval glory and barbarism.  no sweet sophistry or lying or evasion is going to be able to hide the vision of muslims behaving as muslims, of islam being the well spring of barbarism such as will be revealed in the next several years.

 

for islam will exact its revenge on the secularists who suppressed it, in their attempt to join the western world.  they will be hunted down, and they will be publicly killed, in the most brutal manners.

 

not even the leftists in europe, not even the mollusks, can remain oblivious to the implications of islam’s barbarity.  it will give them unassailable proof of what lies ahead for europe.

 

the basic rationale and premise for the euro union having been destroyed by the reality of the collapse of the mediterranean basin’s secular arab states, i am hopeful that the euro union will collapse as well, given its horrific economic conditions.   i am hopeful that the companion edifice of the euro med organization goes with it, and we see drifting in the wraiths and tendrils of the drifting sands, the organic papers and treaties which gave rise to it.

ozymandias

 

i met a traveler from an antique land

who said, two vast and trunkless legs of stone

stand in the desert … .   near them, on the sand

half sunk, a shattered visage lies, who frown

and wrinkled lip, and snear of cold command

tell that its sculptor well its passions read

which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,

the hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:

and, on the pedestal, these words appear:

“my name is ozymandias, king of kings:

look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!”

nothing besides remains. round the decay

of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,

the lone and level sands stretch far away.
