Who is Rammstein provoking anymore? It's music my mom listens to.

One of those lads around the 1980s Mladina sphere was Janesz Jansa, recently Slovenia's PM. Spent months in jail for publishing Yugoslav Army secrets.

(Nic knows this of course, but his readers might not.)

The Windrush myth is not very potent at the moment but I fear it will become so, a bit like 'Juneteenth' in America. There are overtones of pagans having Christianity forced upon them, but at least we have Caravaggio and St. Paul's Cathedral. The woke have steel, glass, antiretrovirals and the abortionists' forceps.

The most annoying thing is that it is clearly such a lie. The idea that the imperial capital needed illiterate Jamaicans "to help rebuild after the war" when the country was awash with men who had seen years of hard service is obvious bollocks to anyone with half a brain.

Bigger fraud: Marina Abramovic or Sam Bankman-Fried?

Interesting to compare the reception of the Windrush passengers with freed slaves escaping the south to Northern states. Both weren't well received, but race seems to have been one of the lesser factors, with things like mannerisms and accents being much more of an issue - contradicting what we are currently told was the case.

The CIA launched protests in the name of “democracy” in Hong Kong?

Just because one is desirous of an action doesn’t mean one originates and controls it. .

The USA is in partnership with militant Islam? Is that so? Or does it just opportunistically intervene on the same “side” from time to time?

Speaking of Afghanistan, Iran has supported militant Sunni groups and Sunni warlords there. Does that mean Iran is uniformly a “partner” with Sunni militants?

When the line from plausibility to extrapolation is crossed, and always in the predictable direction (confirming someone’s own biases), conspiracy theories cease to be entertaining.

Answer to riots; Riot back.

Call it a level playing field and the marketplace of ideas, the idea being reciprocity.

Many a globalist certainly was the certainty of fast and free money to the globalists, who like Stalin went to all the political meetings. Stalin BTW the better man, I did not say good, I said man.

Islam as sometimes ally, sometimes enemy. This is so basic to statecraft especially where there are Muslims , you are attributing laws of gravity to the Great Turbo (TM), making us The Great 👳🏻‍♂️ 🇺🇸 Turban.

(In the spirit of Christmas, you must forgive your fellow Catholic his congenital ☘️ levity) ☺️

AQ as US ally is...forgive me, you are merging your villains too far.

You are mixing the understandable fascination with Turbo America + Balkans ghosts.

1+1 does not equal 11. I’m sure you’re sincere, its just not real.

The Afghan mujahadeen were not AQ. AQ hated us, AQ hates China, frankly it is difficult to find someone or something that AQ loves other than Muslims who agree with them. I am speaking of AQ.

However it’s quite the CIA and USA way to buy and flip enemies, this is hardly our invention. We certainly seem to have engaged yet again with the disreputable in Syria in a Holy Neocon war against Assad, but given the events this year I think we may have been after Russia on the margins all along. I now know that we have been marching towards Russia since Bosnia 95/96. Douglas MacGregor recently confirmed he was told that in DC in 1997, we’ve been after Russia all along.

To this end there is no ally we will turn away, even Nazis.

In defense of hiring Jihadi, Let me point out we the soldiers and the CIA were not allowed to exterminate them, or even keep them in prison, the best alternative is to buy them, they are actually often enough a business at the tactical and operational level and always need ready money. Quite serious, in Mosul D’aesh was just a business. That was also my impression of Iraq.

Did you see this Nic? I remember you getting in a Twitter spat with someone who said Catholics can't be nationalists. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9zaFFRbYghI&feature=youtu.be
