Aim. Fire at foot</title><content type='html'>The madness of the US getting involved in a fight with Iran seems boundless. Quite apart from a shooting war and all that that entails in terms of blood and treasure (cf. Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan) the less direct economic costs can also be vast. If one &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZBLlJJB5k6Y/TyH29_bXU5I/AAAAAAAADLg/xifLA_PjnS0/s1600/shhot%2Bfootd.png"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 205px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 143px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5702110148086420370" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZBLlJJB5k6Y/TyH29_bXU5I/AAAAAAAADLg/xifLA_PjnS0/s320/shhot%2Bfootd.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;country tries to force sanctions on another it needs to be in a very strong economic position. The US had been in that position for almost the last century but is now rapidly losing it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When this happens the countries that don’t support the sanctions, or who see an advantage in avoiding them, will do just that. When that happens the country initiating the sanctions loses out on a whole range of commercial opportunities. Often for a very long time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is what’s happening now. The unilateral and imperious imposition of sanctions has lead to an outbreak of new arrangements among powerful countries which will benefit Iran and have catastrophic impact on the US. The most significant in my view is the move by &lt;a href="http://www.commodityonline.com/news/china-and-uae-ditch-us-dollar-will-use-yuan-for-oil-trade-45444-3-1.html"&gt;China to buy oil from the UAE &lt;/a&gt;using the renmimbi. The Gulf Arabs have broken rankes on the dollar. This on top of Chinese agreements with Russia, Japan and Iran to conduct their trade in their own currencies. Now India is apparently using gold to buy oil from Iran. Stuff the boycott. The US is powerless to do anything about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is earth-shattering news for Americans – or should be. But you’d never guess it from its meagre coverage in the MSM. What it means is that the undermining of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency will undergo a step-change increase. And once such a retreat begins it can quickly become a rout. Impact on American standard of living? Catastrophic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet the American establishment continues on its merry way, 100-0 votes in the Senate, cruising to disaster, oblivious.

Its population (including the immediate surrounding area) is less than 200. Now its remoteness, size and difficulty of access would, you’d imagine, have rendered it safe from the joys of diversity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sadly, no. It emerged in the wake of a tragic boating accident recently that Union Hall has its&lt;u&gt; own thriving ‘Egyptian community’ numbering about 25 individuals&lt;/u&gt;. WTF??? Nearly 15% of the population is Egyptian? Who’d have expected a little Dar Al Islam in that little corner of our world? And how many enrichers from other countries are roosting there? &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/02/hallelulia-ireland-becomes-ever-more.html"&gt;All reproducing at a rate three times that of the locals.&lt;/a&gt; What will that charming little hamlet look like twenty years from now?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Walking through Cork city yesterday I was stunned by the number of ‘visible minorities’. A large proportion of the men had Irish mudsharks on their arms. As I said &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/12/moving-experience.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, the population replacement project in Ireland is going like an express train, helped mightily by the decision of Alan Shatter , “our” (sic) Minister for Justice (sic) to fast-track citizenship for 600 applicants who had &lt;em&gt;‘waited long enough’&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-3499804776033408829?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/3499804776033408829/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=3499804776033408829' title='118 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/3499804776033408829'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/3499804776033408829'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2012/01/meanwhile-down-at-union-hall.html' title='Meanwhile, down at the Union Hall'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Z1fLC_WyZn4/Tx8o7Bi5kxI/AAAAAAAADLI/HvYfaH6S2SA/s72-c/unionhalld.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>118</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-6925156370470496872</id><published>2012-01-23T22:11:00.002Z</published><updated>2012-01-23T22:14:37.215Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='israel'/><title type='text'>Killing many birds (and people) with the one stone</title><content type='html'>I see the Leon Panetta is sending the&lt;a href="http://news.yahoo.com/uss-enterprise-headed-persian-gulf-oil-prices-soar-211420514.html"&gt; USS Enterprise to the Persian Gulf&lt;/a&gt;. Smart move, assuming the ancient hulk can make it over. You see, this is the oldest carrier in the fleet, so old that it’s due for decommissioning. And given that it’s nuclear powered, such decommissioning will be expensive and controversial if undertaken in the US.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that’s why I’m saying it’s a smart move. Because it makes the perfect sacrificial lamb for a false flag operation. As the Enterprise wallows off the Iranian coast a few torpedoes from the Israeli subs, currently prowling off the Gulf of Oman, will send it, and its crew, to a watery grave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cue an explosion of outrage at the ‘Iranian atrocity’ and the launching of another merry Neocon adventure. Meanwhile the costly and controversial decommissioning of the carrier is avoided as it rests at the bottom of the warm waters of the Gulf, while the oil and ‘defense’ industry speculators rub their hand with glee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Same trick worked at Pearl Harbour, Gulf of Tonkin and at 9/11, so why not here?

But even I have to take a bow to myself once in a while I suppose. Not only did I predict the economic crash years before anyone in the mainstream, I transferred my attentions to a more personal matter, the &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2010/03/heidi-klum-and-seal-to-separate.html"&gt;blissful romantic marriage of &lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-s5LgjetGaz8/TxxcmVmgj4I/AAAAAAAADK8/Vp-fhK3DAww/s1600/sealklumL.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 259px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 194px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5700533042047651714" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-s5LgjetGaz8/TxxcmVmgj4I/AAAAAAAADK8/Vp-fhK3DAww/s320/sealklumL.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2010/03/heidi-klum-and-seal-to-separate.html"&gt;Heidi Klum and Seal.&lt;/a&gt; and forecast an early end to their relationship. On reflection nothing could be less personal than their unsavoury coupling, both having milked it for every ounce of publicity they could. No personal details too personal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take this, as told to that gargoyle Oprah Whinfrey &lt;em&gt;"I met him in a hotel lobby in New York City and he came in just from the gym and I was sitting there and I was, like, wow&lt;/em&gt;". Wow, as in Seal was wearing skin tight bicycle shorts "&lt;em&gt;and I pretty much saw everything, the whole package&lt;/em&gt;." On such a celestial plane was the ensuing relationship based. And then there was the little matter of Heidi carrying another man's child at the time she saw the 'full package'. What could possibly go wrong?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I still gave it a chance, at least until I read this from Heidi - less than two years ago. I knew then, based on a thousand such precedents, that they were doomed beyond repair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“We're happy, we're in love, and we're having a great time. We love family life, we love to travel and experience things together and make memories together. We appreciate each other, we respect each other, he understands what I do, and I understand what he does.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No marriage could survive that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And sure enough I now learn (thanks to the various readers who supplied me with this info) that the couple are to go their separate ways. Hope things go badly for the conniving opportunistic narcissistic swine. But what about the mulatto spawn that they leave behind? These unfortunate children have, I imagine, largely served their purpose and will be abandoned to professional 'carers', like so many other Hollywood cast-offs.

My God, how time flies. As has been pointed out to me on countless occasions by Jewish friends and colleagues, ex-friends and former colleagues, the site has gone from being Judophile (I dreamt of 100,000 black and Muslim immigrants to Ireland being replaced by 100,000 Jews) to what many, incorrectly, call anti-Semitism. Representing it graphically, X axis being positivity towards Jews, Y axis amount of research undertaken, it would show a 45 degree reduction from top to bottom. Throughout this time I’ve endured some sleepless nights as existing certainties were undermined, as were long-standing friendships.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A constant, and genuine (in my opinion) response to my position has been along the lines of &lt;em&gt;‘look, every Jewish person has within him the subliminal fear that our millennia of persecution could be reactivated at any time&lt;/em&gt;.’ Now I've yet to hear a single acknowledgement that maybe, just maybe, some aspect of Jewish behaviour might, just possibly, have contributed, in some little way, to the unreasonable behaviour of their hosts. And that’s the point of this post.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Essentially I'm asking, if you fear us so much and want to avoid antagonising us, why do you (it seems to me) do everything in your power to attack and denigrate us? It’s not just towering minds such as Boaz, Marx, Freud etc. who established the ‘architecture’ of white destruction (see my long explanatory post &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2010/12/our-most-improtant-issue-relations-with.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;here&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;). I’m talking about everyday activity that we see all around us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I could write 100 pages worth of examples but I’ll list just a few. Take the attack on Christmas. This most treasured of white cultural celebrations has been under relentless Jewish-lead attack for generations. By now you even have to be careful if you refer to ‘Christmas’ at all, or where you erect a Christmas tree in public. Yet it’s fine to have a giant brightly-lit Hanukah menorah in front of the White House. Any poor idiot who pointed out this obvious unfairness would be torn to shreds by the MSM (Jewish controlled) and the various components of the anti-Semitism industry such as the ADL, $PLC etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What about the egregious Tim Wise with his ‘tick tock’ countdown, celebrating the impending obliteration of white America? I’m not feeling the love, Tim. And have you noticed how the state of Iowa was attacked, slandered and denigrated in the MSM when Iowans looked like giving Ron Paul a plurality. Arthur Sultzerburger, owner of the New York Times had this to say: &lt;em&gt;“Iowa has long been criticized as too much of an outlier to be permanently endowed such an outsize influence in shaping the presidential field. Too small, critics say. Too rural. Too white&lt;/em&gt;.” He didn’t say who it has been ‘criticized’ by, but he need look no further than his own paper where a mini-army of Jewish writers conducted an on-going assault.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now a&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5q1aCfC0CNM/TxSSBNeWxTI/AAAAAAAADKk/70OLtbrufZI/s1600/romneys7.png"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 243px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 170px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698339978025026866" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5q1aCfC0CNM/TxSSBNeWxTI/AAAAAAAADKk/70OLtbrufZI/s320/romneys7.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;nother Jewish writer at the Slimes, Lee Siegel, has opened up the attack on Mitt Romney, presumably because he looks like a white candidate who could beat their treasured Obama. He doesn’t like the Romney family, because of their whiteness, basically. Get this: Romney’s whiteness is grounded &lt;em&gt;‘in a retro vision of the country, one of white picket fences and stay-at-home moms and fathers unashamed to work hard for corporate America.’&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can you credit that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He despises Romney because he represents a country of white picket fences and stay-at-home moms and fathers unashamed to work hard! Maybe he prefers today’s America of Detroit, Camden and numerous other black-run (I use that term advisedly) cities, where a semblance of order is maintained only by the presence of the National Guard? An America with a permanent black welfare class, a disappearing middle class (read ‘white’), flash mobs, mass unemployment, a plummeting dollar, a disappearing manufacturing base, and with its disappearance jobs for all those fathers unashamed to work hard for corporate America?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know, it seems to me that that is &lt;u&gt;exactly&lt;/u&gt; what he, and his ilk, would prefer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So to my remaining Jewish friends and colleagues I say to you: This is bloody strange way of forestalling a recurrence of historical anti-Semitism. What the hell are you playing at?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I yield the floor…….&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-6428570844701214998?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/6428570844701214998/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=6428570844701214998' title='98 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/6428570844701214998'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/6428570844701214998'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2012/01/my-transition.html' title='My transition'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5q1aCfC0CNM/TxSSBNeWxTI/AAAAAAAADKk/70OLtbrufZI/s72-c/romneys7.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>98</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-1879327296325640938</id><published>2012-01-15T22:56:00.004Z</published><updated>2012-01-15T23:00:45.911Z</updated><title type='text'>Plus ça change (plus c'est la même chose)</title><content type='html'>&lt;em&gt;"The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity.

Good news to see that a group of 300 or so English people can walk relatively unmolested in the Queen's Realm. Progress of a kind, I suppose.

It follows that innocuous and desirable slogans along the lines of "&lt;em&gt;Extremists off our streets"&lt;/em&gt; brings the demonstrators into the respectable mainstream. I mean if you have a demo with banners like &lt;em&gt;"Make out streets safe again", "Yes to religious freedom, no to intolerance", "The same laws for everyone&lt;/em&gt;", interspersed with a goodly proportion of national flags and banners........who could object to that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's the way forward, no question about that.

Much, much too late</title><content type='html'>In the sixties and seventies Sweden averaged between 90 and 100 murders per year for the whole country. The equivalent of about 1 per 100,000. One of the best, if not the best, in the world. But then Sweden became multi-cultural - as, apparently, it has to (at least according to &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2Vq_e2Z1ug"&gt;this lady&lt;/a&gt;). Didn't do much for the murder rate, especially in the &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-U7xLUFCZT7o/Twyah1ZY9vI/AAAAAAAADJc/f67c915RGR0/s1600/malmo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 275px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 167px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5696097534776768242" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-U7xLUFCZT7o/Twyah1ZY9vI/AAAAAAAADJc/f67c915RGR0/s320/malmo.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;most culturally enriched locations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Malmo is probably the most culturally enriched of any town or city in Sweden. Malmo is now averaging one murder per week, the equivalent of about 28 per 100,000. That's some change, isn't it? From 1 to 28. Cultural enrichment at its finest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The citizens of Malmo (those still alive) are marching against the killing and violence. Too late, much, much too late, citizens. You've filled your city with Arabs, Afghans, Pakistanis, Albanians and Africans from the length and breadth of that benighted continent. These people will behave the way Arabs, Afghans, Pakistanis, Albanians and Africans always behave. In fact they'll behave worse because the Swedish police are pathetic and even in the unlikely event of getting a conviction the perp will be sentenced to a year or two in a luxury prison/hotel rather than suffer a gruesome death at the hands of the 'authorities'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So put away those silly signs, citizens of Malmo. Extinguish these useless candles. Instead take several lengths of long rope and head for where your politicians plan their evil work. Then, with torches ablaze hoist as many as possible onto the nearby lamp-posts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now &lt;em&gt;&lt;u&gt;that&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/em&gt; will make a difference.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-5414384868956029927?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/5414384868956029927/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=5414384868956029927' title='60 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/5414384868956029927'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/5414384868956029927'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2012/01/too-late-much-much-too-late.html' title='Too late.

Not that he encourages the comparison, mind you. Apparently the first thing he says on being introduced goes along the lines of ‘&lt;em&gt;everyone is comparing me to Barak Obama, but in fact I’m my own man’&lt;/em&gt;. Very modest of him. Who is he? Ladies and gentlemen I give you Chuka Umunna, &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Sd99qCeRLf0/Twtmq3Fln3I/AAAAAAAADJQ/1omDXrgWHLU/s1600/chukaC-350_468x396.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 274px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 239px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5695759040268050290" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Sd99qCeRLf0/Twtmq3Fln3I/AAAAAAAADJQ/1omDXrgWHLU/s320/chukaC-350_468x396.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Britain’s Shadow Business Secretary, who has actually been described by the &lt;a href="http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/2009/01/barack-obama-change-qatar"&gt;New Statesman &lt;/a&gt;as one of &lt;em&gt;Ten People Who Could Change The World&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn't that something?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While some begrudgers might quibble, I say he has all the Obama qualifications. Let me explain:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() He had an African father who knocked up a wealthy white woman&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() He’s got a daft unpronounceable name&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() He cannot be mentioned in the MSM without multiple references to his &lt;em&gt;‘brilliance’&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;‘eloquence’&lt;/em&gt;. In fact the &lt;a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/dont-compare-me-to-obama-is-chuka-umunna-britains-first-black-pm-6259648.html"&gt;Independent &lt;/a&gt;pointed out that it's nigh-on impossible to find anybody who has a bad word to say about him (and who isn't a right-wing blogger). Presumably they don’t see the irony of the last bit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Zoomed to the top despite negligible accomplishments. Failed to get into Oxford. Being black, wearing a suit and not having stabbed anyone he should have been a shoo-in. Scraped a 2.1 in Law and French at Manchester University and then worked as a junior solicitor for a few years before becoming an MP in a safe Labour constituency. Just eighteen months ago! Whereupon he was promoted to the post of Shadow Business Secretary – one of the biggest jobs on the opposition front bench.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Did a stint as a ‘community organiser', presumably using his labour law specialty to extract AA compensation for Leshawn and Rohandra from their unfortunate white employers&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Developed a God Syndrome after a short time in office. His fellow Labour MPs have &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2063736/Labour-MPs-rebel-Ed-Miliband-s-rising-star-Chuka-Umunna.html#ixzz1ibJPdOw8"&gt;accused him&lt;/a&gt; of running a ‘&lt;em&gt;presidential-style’&lt;/em&gt; Commons office with no fewer that eleven personal assistants. (Most have only one or two).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Manifests gargantuan hypocrisy: Like Obama, this horny handed son of the soil has used offshore tax avoidance schemes to help fund his luxurious lifestyle while railing against banking ‘&lt;em&gt;fat cats’&lt;/em&gt; who live by different rules to ‘ordinary taxpayers’. His £1 million house was financed by what the &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2058132/Tax-haven-riddle-British-Obama-familys-1m-home.html#ixzz1ial0s7hA"&gt;Daily Mail &lt;/a&gt;coyly referred to as &lt;em&gt;“the house’s complicated ownership structure&lt;/em&gt;.” Funded by a Jersey-based Trust which helps ‘&lt;em&gt;high net worth’ individuals&lt;/em&gt; to ‘&lt;em&gt;plan for and mitigate tax liabilities’.&lt;/em&gt; Indeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() He's a lightweight in a smart suit whose entire political output seems to be about race&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() He wants to, and believes he can,&lt;em&gt; ‘change the world’&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() He has an uncanny ability to read from an autocue&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, this guy has everything it takes. We read of his ‘&lt;em&gt;impish sense of humour’&lt;/em&gt;, his ‘&lt;em&gt;charming laugh’&lt;/em&gt;, his&lt;em&gt; ‘firm commitment to equality’&lt;/em&gt;, his &lt;em&gt;‘ability to listen’&lt;/em&gt; (especially if they’re comparing him to Obama), his &lt;em&gt;‘humility, despite being super-smart, extremely talented or drop-dead gorgeous’&lt;/em&gt;. I kid you not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And what about Daddy? Apparently his father was a self-made man, who arrived from Nigeria in the 1960s and started out washing cars, going on to establish his own import-export business. Taking time out to, like Rageh Omar (see my post &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2009/10/rageh-solves-race-problem.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) to send another renowned ancestral line down the plughole (his wife is the daughter of the legendary Sir Helenus Patrick Joseph Milmo ). Now I know what some of you racist, white-supremacist bigots are thinking. A Nigerian running a used car Import-export business…... Well I can assure you that there wasn’t a single instance of dealing in crashed or stolen cars or ones with clocked mileage. In fact I'm reliably informed that, remarkably, most had been driven by just one careful lady owner. What’s more, I believe that every penny of VAT, income tax and excise duty was paid at all times. Every penny, I tell you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In conclusion I leave you with this Limerick:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;There once was an MP called Chuka&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;With left wing credentials not Pukka&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Privileged and greedy&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;With tax planning seedy&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Lets hope he ends up in the gutter&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-755030427318337434?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/755030427318337434/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=755030427318337434' title='52 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/755030427318337434'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/755030427318337434'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2012/01/britains-obama.html' title='Britain&apos;s Obama?'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Sd99qCeRLf0/Twtmq3Fln3I/AAAAAAAADJQ/1omDXrgWHLU/s72-c/chukaC-350_468x396.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>52</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-4244754237386544409</id><published>2012-01-08T15:42:00.005Z</published><updated>2012-01-08T15:50:45.639Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ireland'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Entrepreneuricus Hibernicus turns toes up</title><content type='html'>A titan of Irish business passed away this week. Alex Spain, for it was he, headed up many of Ireland’s top companies in a long and richly-rewarded career. He was famous for his decisiveness and didn’t tolerate fools gladly. He drummed his fingers i&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r2tgYkKe3gc/Twm5mpqWAXI/AAAAAAAADJE/G9eLfip1ZpY/s1600/shipL582.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 243px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 207px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5695287277456327026" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r2tgYkKe3gc/Twm5mpqWAXI/AAAAAAAADJE/G9eLfip1ZpY/s320/shipL582.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;mpatiently on the boardroom table as his quaking underlings, fixed by his cold gimlet eye, delivered their spiels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ensuing instructions were invariably rapid, decisive, clearcut. And catastrophically wrong. His first major task was to take over Irish Shipping in the eighties. His fees for this were so enormous that a special ‘vehicle’ (Zeus Management) was set up to get around awkward pay restrictions. His impact on Irish Shipping was like that of a fleet of German submarines, and soon the company had gone to a watery grave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fresh from this accomplishment he was snapped up to take over Xtravision, Ireland’s largest video rental company (which also had a huge property portfolio). Same result, company down the tubes within a few years. And so it went, Alex headhunted to take over company after company, as one after another they bit the dust and/or or ended up in all sorts of legal trouble.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But it never held the bold Alex back. He retired, a wealthy man, feted by all and sundry for his ‘services’ to Irish business.

That country is experiencing a full-blown economic depression in which 100,000 businesses have closed and a third of the population is living in poverty. The situation gets worse every day and in many of the poorer areas people are literally going hungry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every euro - every cent - counts as the government scrambles to avoid catastrophe. What can we possibly do, the desperate cry rings out. But &lt;em&gt;nil desperandum&lt;/em&gt;, a solution presents itself: Spend nearly €20 million on building a spanking new mosque in Athens for the city's quarter of a million Muslims. Now the interesting thing is that the vast majority of those are illegal immigrants. I kid you not. Even the Gruaniad admits that &lt;em&gt;"as a gateway to the EU of illegal immigrants, Greece's Muslim population is growing".&lt;/em&gt; It could have added &lt;em&gt;'by leaps and bounds'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the question arises, why would a bankrupt country whose citizens are facing destitution even consider spending&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KTehH2IleDw/TwdJE-ao52I/AAAAAAAADI4/afRspk3RK8Y/s1600/athens%2Bmosquebe-007.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 297px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 175px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5694600603656316770" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KTehH2IleDw/TwdJE-ao52I/AAAAAAAADI4/afRspk3RK8Y/s320/athens%2Bmosquebe-007.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;g so much for a mosque for mainly illegal immigrants? Well, &lt;a href="http://www.stonegateinstitute.org/2413/greece-mosque-athens"&gt;this report &lt;/a&gt;gives us a clue. &lt;em&gt;"The move comes amid thinly veiled threats of violence by thousands of Muslim residents of the city who have been pressuring the government to meet their demands for a mosque or face an uprising. Many of the estimated 200,000 Muslims living in Athens are illegal immigrants from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Egypt, Nigeria and Pakistan."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And as we know, threats of violence from these people cannot be taken lightly. So that's it. Illegal Muslims flood a small bankrupt European country, and because they threaten violence the country feels it ( and not some bloated Saudi plutocrat) might have to pay for their new mosque. No doubt the execrable European Court of 'Human Rights' is fouling up the pitch somehow as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why not trot across the border to Turkey, where a 'devout' Islamic government rules the roost? In fact the vast majority of those illegals &lt;u&gt;actually passed through Islamic Turkey to get to mosque-less Athens.&lt;/u&gt; You see the Turks don't piss about dealing with illegals. And anyway, said illegals have a fair idea that the threat of violence in an EU country should get them what they're looking for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yep, it's on the level of the Mad Hatter's Tea Party all right. But one good thing, which goes back to my &lt;em&gt;'worse is better'&lt;/em&gt; theory: 'Extreme right-wing groups' (yeah, right) are agitating strongly against the initiative. And they're getting a lot of support from ordinary Athenians.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We do indeed live in interesting times.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-71100144727482488?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/71100144727482488/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=71100144727482488' title='42 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/71100144727482488'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/71100144727482488'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2012/01/as-even-sociology-professor-could-tell.html' title='Greek financial management'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KTehH2IleDw/TwdJE-ao52I/AAAAAAAADI4/afRspk3RK8Y/s72-c/athens%2Bmosquebe-007.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>42</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-6738862798894529041</id><published>2012-01-04T20:01:00.003Z</published><updated>2012-01-04T20:32:06.040Z</updated><title type='text'>The Lawrence verdict: Some initial thoughts</title><content type='html'>I've hardly seen such untrammelled joy since England won the World Cup in 1966. Every MSM outlet has banner headlines, gloating at the (to my mind very dubious) verdict in the Stephen Lawrence case. Paul Dacre of the 'conservative' Daily Mail even claimed 'credit' for the case remaining alive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The case was always going to remain alive because it was an absolute godsend for the traitorous elites who misrule Britain. An absolute godsend, I tell you. For a start they've transformed and emascualted the police via the McPherson Report to the point where they spend their time investigating footballers insulting one another, and celebrating gypsies' contribution to Britain ( don't believe me? &lt;u&gt;Please&lt;/u&gt; check &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2008/12/gypsy-update.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;McPherson found the police to be 'institutionally racist'. Boy, was that a winning phrase. You can hardly take a walk in the woods without coming across it in some form or other. They were institutionally racist among other things because they 'disproportionately' stopped and searched black 'youths'. Could it have been because such black youths were behind 90% of stabbings in London? The same as checking out us Irish during the IRA campaigns in Britain. Would you expect them to look for the IRA among the West Indian or the 'Asian' communities?To me that's basic police work albeit sometimes embarrassing and inconvenient for many of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Net effect, the police have become PC enforcers and useless at solving serious crime. And they're blamed because hundreds of black 'youths' are stabbing one another all over the country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And another great benefit for the traitorous elites: The case has enabled them to demonise and marginalise the white British working class, whom the elites always feared and despised. None more so than the 'Labour' party bigwigs, I might add. They have built on this to the point where being white and working class has become co-coterminous with ignorance, violence, bigotry and general uselessness. Do &lt;u&gt;not&lt;/u&gt; underestimate the value of this development to their overall social re-engineering project.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Lawrence case has been kept alive for eighteen years by now. I'll bet the victim in &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/12/move-on-now-nothing-to-see-here.html"&gt;this particular racist stabb&lt;/a&gt;ing will be forgotten in eighteen weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And a final thought: The ancient Common Law principle of double jeopardy, whereby a person cannot be tried twice for the same crime, has been demolished. Courtesy of that weasel Jack Straw. The bedrock of the British way of life has been further chiseled away, doubtless enabling the persecution of lots more white chavs in the years ahead.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-6738862798894529041?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/6738862798894529041/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=6738862798894529041' title='71 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/6738862798894529041'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/6738862798894529041'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2012/01/lawrence-verdict-some-initial-thoughts.html' title='The Lawrence verdict: Some initial thoughts'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>71</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-72870006185493258</id><published>2012-01-02T23:38:00.003Z</published><updated>2012-01-02T23:44:33.646Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='israel'/><title type='text'>Treason</title><content type='html'>Sometimes I just don’t get Fox News. It’s usually the most tendentious and corrupt of all the major American “news” networks. And Christ, that’s saying something. They’re just standard neocon/Israeli shills. But other times, very, very seldom admittedly, their reporters seem to slip their handlers and speak the truth. I remember in particular Judge Napolitano asking some very pointed questions about Israeli control of the American political process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gMg1k4K6j3E/TwJAXG04VTI/AAAAAAAADIs/OvAlOGgsIAw/s1600/fauxd.png"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 219px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 230px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693183644663305522" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gMg1k4K6j3E/TwJAXG04VTI/AAAAAAAADIs/OvAlOGgsIAw/s320/fauxd.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And he’s still employed there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fox were also, as far as I can see, the only network that gave any coverage to the Israeli spying industry in the US. And they gave it some serious coverage, quoting intelligence sources to the effect that the Israelis had to have known about 9/11 well in advance, but didn’t warn them about it in any meaningful way. But then the fix went in. Despite Brit Hume assuring us that “&lt;em&gt;we'll have that and a lot more in the days ahead&lt;/em&gt;”, Fox dropped the story, erased it from their web site and have never mentioned it again. But some patriotic Americans have captured it for posterity &lt;a href="http://100777.com/usa/israeli_spyring"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;here&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt; And what an ugly tale it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It reveals how two Israeli-owned companies, Amdocs and Comverse Infosys have total access to all telephone transactions and official eavesdropping reports in the US. Several top secret reports were given to former AG John Ashcroft and FBI Director Robert Mueller to the effect that key data were ‘&lt;em&gt;falling into the wrong hands’&lt;/em&gt;. Presumably Ashcroft and Mueller then forwarded the reports to their spy handlers. In any event, and predictably, no meaningful follow-up investigation took place. Hardly surprising as &lt;em&gt;“investigators within the DEA, INS and FBI have all told Fox News that to pursue or eve&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-s9cF-880UMI/TwJAL1Mmb9I/AAAAAAAADIg/1Nlwp9z_VcM/s1600/fauxO.jpg"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 195px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 258px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693183450952396754" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-s9cF-880UMI/TwJAL1Mmb9I/AAAAAAAADIg/1Nlwp9z_VcM/s320/fauxO.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;n suggest Israeli spying is considered career suicide.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And indeed it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those who drive this cover-up from the top, and those in the FBI who awarded the contracts to Amdocs and Comverse, and who then take up lucrative positions with those very companies – there’s a word for what they did and continue to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treason.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-72870006185493258?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/72870006185493258/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=72870006185493258' title='55 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/72870006185493258'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/72870006185493258'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2012/01/treason.html' title='Treason'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gMg1k4K6j3E/TwJAXG04VTI/AAAAAAAADIs/OvAlOGgsIAw/s72-c/fauxd.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>55</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-6964652577161434361</id><published>2012-01-01T21:48:00.004Z</published><updated>2012-01-01T21:56:27.026Z</updated><title type='text'>Pope prays for peace on earth.

The scale and depth of America's current degraded state was brought home to me with great force while skimming through George Washinton's &lt;a href="http://avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century/washing.asp"&gt;Farewell Address &lt;/a&gt;in 1796.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My God, what foresight! It's like he had come back from the dead and described whast he sees today. In his worst nightmare I don't think he could have envisaged things ever coming to such a pass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"So likewise, a passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uhsMFBJ1QNc/Tvnb9iD081I/AAAAAAAADHY/UEHQtL918Qg/s1600/washingtond.png"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 131px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 108px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5690821454320694098" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uhsMFBJ1QNc/Tvnb9iD081I/AAAAAAAADHY/UEHQtL918Qg/s320/washingtond.png" /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification. It leads also to concessions to the favorite nation of privileges denied to others which is apt doubly to injure the nation making the concessions; by unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained, and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld. And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens (who devote themselves to the favorite nation), facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding, with the appearances of a virtuous sense of obligation, a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;As avenues to foreign influence in innumerable ways, such attachments are particularly alarming to the truly enlightened and independent patriot. How many opportunities do they afford to tamper with domestic factions, to practice the arts of seduction, to mislead public opinion, to influence or awe the public councils. Such an attachment of a small or weak towards a great and powerful nation dooms the former to be the satellite of the latter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. But that jealousy to be useful must be impartial; else it becomes the instrument of the very influence to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests.

He correctly states that blacks see whites as controlling everything, &lt;em&gt;ipso facto&lt;/em&gt;, they're responsible for the manifold failings of blacks. Which is convenient nonsense on their part of course. When I impute responsibility to Jews for the things that are destroying the west (mass immigration, AA, desegregation, neocon wars, 'hate' legislation etc. etc.) he believes that I'm falling into the same trap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is true that 'whites control everything' compared to blacks. But.......whites have used that power to favour blacks, to a preposterous degree, and invariably at the expense of white society and individuals. However, and it's a big however, the &lt;em&gt;hochjuden&lt;/em&gt; or Super-Jews who control America and most of the west most certainly do not favour Gentile whites. And that's putting it mildly! It seems, at least possible, that they instead harbour a deep animosity towards traditional white society in all its forms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And as I've pointed out on many occasions, if and when the proverbial shit hits the fan, ordinary Jews could get swept away in the deluge. That being the case I'll repeat the suggestions I made in a &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/11/great-awakening.html"&gt;recent post&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Establish organisations such as:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Jews against foreign wars&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Jews against Affirmative Action and denigration of the white race&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Jews against mass immigration&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Jews for 911 Truth&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-161822985347851213?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/161822985347851213/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=161822985347851213' title='105 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/161822985347851213'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/161822985347851213'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/12/belated-response.html' title='A belated response'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>105</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-1264923188768339824</id><published>2011-12-18T23:02:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-12-18T23:08:01.816Z</updated><title type='text'>Is worse REALLY Better?</title><content type='html'>I've been preaching for quite some time that the old Leninist dictum ‘&lt;em&gt;worse is better’&lt;/em&gt; applies now like never before. Lady Savant took me firmly to task on this a few days ago. Apparently I'm willing, nay enthusiastic, about the prospects of seeing the ‘&lt;em&gt;most vulnerable’&lt;/em&gt; in our society suffer misery and of seeing ethnic groups ‘&lt;em&gt;go for one another’s throats’&lt;/em&gt;. She became quite emotional. Maybe it’s the Christmas season?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me respond by quoting from a post I wrote about England a long time ago &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2007/02/mystery-connection.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“That once green and pleasant land has now been deemed the worst place in the developed world for a child to grow up. Towns all over the country that were a joy to visit 30 years ago are now crime-ridden, racially segmented dumps. England has become a multicultural society, though it’s fair to say that few English people ever wanted it to be. Certainly they were never asked. Through the folly, arrogance and sentimentality of their well-insulated ruling class, and by their own inattention, disorganization and reluctance to appear unkind, the English have given up large tracts of their country to foreign peoples, whom they dislike and who dislike them right back. The English have created their very own race problem from scratch — possibly the greatest act of self-destructive folly perpetrated by any civilised nation in the twentieth century.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now this has happened in less than two generations! Vast tracts of England have been taken over and despoiled by hostile, aggressive and unproductive invaders. Yet there has been little or no adverse reaction. On the contrary, as we saw with the Emma West case, any true Brit that speaks out against it will suffer horribly at the hands of the Quislings. And this from the nation that created an empire on which the sun never set, and which famously saw off all earlier invaders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United States will soon be a minority white country, in other words it won’t be the United States any more. Yet the only reaction from whites there is to uproot and flee to safer areas, soon to be followed by the non-white undertow in pursuit of their productive prey. Whereupon the same process will be repeated. The same developments have taken place throughout the Western world, to minimal public reaction. Children’s demographics in many parts of Europe show that whole cities and regions will rapidly become Third World hell holes within a generation. Demographics are destiny. Yet little or nothing is done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So do you still think worse isn’t better? Well, the general population has shown that it will not react to the provocations I outlined above. There’s no guarantee that they will in the event of a major economic collapse either. But the chances are so much greater. As Gerald Celente says, &lt;em&gt;‘when people lose everything - they lose it’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s not just demographics. Especially in the USA, but in fact everywhere in the West (and nowhere else, of course) whites, especially white males, are discriminated against under a comprehensive framework of which Affirmative Action is but one element. Not alone must they contend with this, but their taxes go to providing a comfortable lifestyle for a whole sub-species of welfare breeders, who again show not the slightest hint of appreciation. And over the last few years white taxpayers (a tautology if there ever was one) have been stiffed to bail our criminal bankers while seeing their own savings and careers decimated. Meanwhile the bankers and their political sock puppets continue to live life on the hog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No my friends, worse &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;is &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;better. We’ll all suffer a few years of hardship and it will be really painful for many of us. But we’re fucked anyway! That’s the point. I have no idea how it will all turn out and can only dream mistily of banksters and quislings swaying gently in the breeze as they dangle from lampposts. But there will be no change without a crash, that’s for sure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So bring it on….&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-1264923188768339824?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/1264923188768339824/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=1264923188768339824' title='107 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1264923188768339824'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1264923188768339824'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/12/is-worse-really-better.html' title='Is worse REALLY Better?'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>107</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-7083319559491597812</id><published>2011-12-18T13:48:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-12-18T13:52:43.382Z</updated><title type='text'>My traditional Christmas</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gujV0bfat60/Tu3v9KZpSDI/AAAAAAAADHA/v9kWemjshBI/s1600/christams.bmp"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 215px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687465738481780786" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gujV0bfat60/Tu3v9KZpSDI/AAAAAAAADHA/v9kWemjshBI/s320/christams.bmp" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I may have shown this cartoon before, but I'll do it again because it totally represents my Christmases over nearly forty years of marital bliss.

However, now that he’s given up his political ambitions he’s coming clean on some of scandals he was privy to. One of them is the Neocon War Schedule. In &lt;a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgj1sh_wesley-clark-on-america-s-foreign-policy-coup_news"&gt;this clip &lt;/a&gt;he details what occurred just before the Iraq adventure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Six weeks later, I saw the same officer, and asked: “Are we still going to attack Iraq?” &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;He said: “Sir, it’s worse than that. He said – he pulled up a piece of paper off his desk – he said: “I just got this memo from the Secretary of Defense’s office. It says we’re going to attack and destroy the governments in 7 countries in five years – we’re going to start with Iraq, and then we’re going to move to Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Iran.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Clark also points out that about ten years previously, in 1991, Paul Wolfowitz told him pretty much the same thing. Now there’s nothing dramatically new here – the Project for the New American Century has pretty much laid it all out at that time. Isn’t it scary though that an unelected self-selected group with dubious loyalties can decide on the wars the country takes on, with the elected ‘representatives’ reduced to a bystander’s role?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn't it scarier still that this plot scarcely gets a mention in the MSM or in what passes for political discourse in the USA?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So which will occur first: Syria and/or Iran attacked, or the USA becomes bankrupted from these adventures?&lt;a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgj1sh_wesley-clark-on-america-s-foreign-policy-coup_news"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-7423184400112445867?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/7423184400112445867/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=7423184400112445867' title='41 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/7423184400112445867'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/7423184400112445867'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/12/five-and-counting.html' title='Five and counting....'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>41</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-7936577546071468535</id><published>2011-12-09T20:13:00.011Z</published><updated>2011-12-10T16:20:19.929Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ireland'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Race'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Immigration'/><title type='text'>A moving experience</title><content type='html'>It takes a lot to make get me emotional these days. But I’ll confess that a lump formed in my throat and my eyes moistened as I watched the first two citizenship ceremonies ever to take place in Cork. It was emotional for the new ‘citizens’ as well. In the top picture here you can see them celebrate in the vibrant cultural tradition that’s going to so enrich our lives, and those of our descendants (assuming they’re still in Ireland).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-q6MecCqSltE/TuJsv3VI2aI/AAAAAAAADGQ/DBF9YEe_Ovc/s1600/arses.bmp"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 264px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 190px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5684225249257249186" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-q6MecCqSltE/TuJsv3VI2aI/AAAAAAAADGQ/DBF9YEe_Ovc/s320/arses.bmp" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And who could not be moved by the sight of Mohammed Kano from Nigeria, surrounded by his five wives and forty three children, as he pledged undying fealty to ‘the laws and customs of Ireland’. Indeed, his gratitude was so great that he offered all present the opportunity to make gains of 1000% percent in return for just a brief and modest lodgement to his bank account. He’s the kind of citizen that we want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The discovery that all present had had their pockets picked by some of the new Romanian gypsy citizens undoubtedly put a bit&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Paamw3RfLqQ/TuJsYvmKEAI/AAAAAAAADGE/o-IFAqAvoEE/s1600/africa9t.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 259px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 170px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5684224852044156930" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Paamw3RfLqQ/TuJsYvmKEAI/AAAAAAAADGE/o-IFAqAvoEE/s320/africa9t.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; of a damper on proceedings. But not for long. This was all forgotten as the ‘New Irish’ jumped on the bandwagon (second picture down)and headed over to the Social Welfare office to collect their very first welfare cheque as Irish citizens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a proud moment for all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And interestingly, and by strange coincidence, they passed on their w&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-1fNciSvZnyk/TuJsGkZrEbI/AAAAAAAADF4/gf-rE4IAJm4/s1600/Stampede.png"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px;

It should be perfectly obvious that you’re looking at Sweden’s latest PC Plod, your friendly local officerette on the beat. Donna Eljammal, for it is she, informs us that her appointment &lt;em&gt;“is a reflection of the multicultural Sweden we live in today”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, it certainly is that. It certainly is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PC Aljammal, who &lt;em&gt;‘always wanted to be in the police’ &lt;/em&gt;also believes that &lt;em&gt;“it shows the public another side of women choosing to wear the veil, that we are not oppressed but can be strong and independent women&lt;/em&gt;.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well,I’m not so sure about that, Officer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But she’s on the mark again here. &lt;em&gt;”The veil shows clearly that I have first hand knowledge of different aspects of Swedish society&lt;/em&gt;.” Very true. Let me guess what these might be. Planting bombs on trains, honour killings, stoning adulterers, killing converts to Christianity, burning Jews out of their houses……..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why, the way Sweden is going PC Eljammal could turn out to be a right mine of information after all. But………. would she pass it on to her fellow officers? Ah, that’s the rub, isnt it? She wouldn’t be like the Ft. Hood shooter, would she? Or would she be like &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2008641/Hunt-burka-raider-Man-dressed-Muslim-woman-caught-CCTV-robbing-travel-agencies.html"&gt;this guy&lt;/a&gt;? He dressed up in a burka and has been merrily robbing travel agents (why just travel agents? Only he and Allah (Peace Be Upon The Fucker) know that).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wouldn’t it be a sight to see her in all her regalia going after him, and they duelling out on the high street?

We note that Danny O’Shea was chased and stabbed to death by what the &lt;a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-16022192"&gt;Beeb&lt;/a&gt; coyly tell us was &lt;em&gt;“a group&lt;/em&gt;”. They neglected to mention that according to D&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CVL5uA2a2ss/Tt6DLsUz-pI/AAAAAAAADFU/VaWjtqwDYjI/s1600/dannyshea.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 188px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 236px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5683124016688396946" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CVL5uA2a2ss/Tt6DLsUz-pI/AAAAAAAADFU/VaWjtqwDYjI/s320/dannyshea.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;et. Chief Inspector John MacDonald it was a group of black males. Purely an oversight on the part of &lt;strike&gt;Pravda &lt;/strike&gt;the Beeb, I have no doubt. Probably realising he had put his foot in it, MacDonald quickly added that &lt;em&gt;“there is nothing to suggest Danny's murder is racially motivated”&lt;/em&gt;. But of course John. A group of blacks chasing a white boy and stabbing him to death - how could that possibly have anything to do with race. I’ll bet that had it been a gang of white youths chasing and stabbing a black youth it would also be seen as non-racist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh wait! What about Stephen Lawrence? This very thing happened eighteen years ago. It was the race/hate crime of the century and lead, after a police inquiry, to the destruction of the British police force as we knew and loved it. And it’s still a &lt;em&gt;cause celebre&lt;/em&gt;. Even on &lt;u&gt;today’s&lt;/u&gt; Beeb site they have done yet another piece on it. Eighteen years later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will the presstitutes of the lamestream media be talking about Danny O’Shea in eighteen years? It’ll be forgotten within eighteen days, and will be given cursory coverage if and when the poor misunderstood perps are brought to justice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And speaking about justice in Britain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2070562/Muslim-girl-gang-kicked-Rhea-Page-head-yelling-kill-white-slag-FREED.html"&gt;mob&lt;/a&gt; of female (kind of) asylum tourists from Somalia punched, kicked, beat and tore at Rhea Page in the centre of Leicester (one of Britain’s most ‘diverse’ cities) leaving her so traumatised that she lost her job following repeated absences with stress and flashbacks.

That’s how it is in Britain today folks, and in much of the rest of Northern Europe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I finish with a question.

To me many of them over that time have been positive and beneficial for a homogenous population. They’re still busily innovating, but now that things have gone off the rails world-wide it’s instructive to use that country as a guide to what’s in store for the rest of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few examples:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wvy71ikk_NY/TtvY7e78dlI/AAAAAAAADE8/X-06UennGq4/s1600/lucia8.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 271px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 136px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5682373871286384210" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wvy71ikk_NY/TtvY7e78dlI/AAAAAAAADE8/X-06UennGq4/s320/lucia8.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Lucia Celebration around Christmas time has been practiced for centuries. It features a procession of girls dressed all in white and carrying candles. Naturally enough proud parents can’t wait to get enough photos of their angelic offspring. I’ve known some Swedes who have specific Lucia albums. But all that’s come to an end, at least in the city of Linkoping. Under &lt;a href="http://www.thelocal.se/37698/20111202/"&gt;new rules &lt;/a&gt;introduced in the municipality earlier in the year, parents have been told they cannot take pictures at the numerous Lucia celebrations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why has this venerable tradition been thrown to the winds? A prime concern behind the move is said to be to prevent the children of asylum seekers with protected identities unwittingly being uncovered by such photos. Yes, that’s the reason. Now a very simple suggestion would be for the asylum tourists to be kept out of the celebrations. But I guess that’d contravene their rights. And we can’t have that. Much better to contravene the rights of the Swedes instead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now we all know, despite the MSM cover-up, that Muslim men don’t take kindly to women being in any position of authority. Especially when it’s directly wielded over them. So when, in the interests of gender equality they place young women as guards over Muslim prisoners (is Muslim prisoners a tautology?) you might expect a bit of excitement. Sure enough, one sunny day in the exercise yard of a remand centre an Iraqi Kurd (I got this from my Swedish friends, not, needless to say, from the obscene MSM) &lt;a href="http://www.thelocal.se/37706/20111202/"&gt;beat the girl to death &lt;/a&gt;with her own baton, supplemented by kicking and punching.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As one does.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I wrote &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/search/label/Sweden"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; about Egala pre-school in Stockholm where they’re trying to drive a stake through the heart of natural development by rearing genderless misfits. In an experiment that would have gladdened the hearts of Beria or Georg Lukacs, at Egalia are all buddies. Or "persons". No one is a girl or boy. They’re all just ‘friends’. Referring to ‘him’ or ‘her’ is frowned upon. It’s all about ‘equality’, you see. “&lt;em&gt;We have started from an idea of equality&lt;/em&gt;” says Lotta Rajalin, who is head of the six pre-schools in Stockholm. And is also, I imagine, a hairy-assed, foul-smelling dyke.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So that’s it folks, a glimpse into the near future for the rest of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unless of course economic collapse focuses people’s minds on the real issue. Remember, worse is better.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-8352542741372111230?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/8352542741372111230/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=8352542741372111230' title='84 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8352542741372111230'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8352542741372111230'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/12/into-future.html' title='Into the future'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wvy71ikk_NY/TtvY7e78dlI/AAAAAAAADE8/X-06UennGq4/s72-c/lucia8.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>84</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-6767140132480964222</id><published>2011-12-02T15:35:00.008Z</published><updated>2011-12-02T15:57:45.010Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><title type='text'>And they called him Newt....</title><content type='html'>A newt is a wart&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ti_anSUgYtc/TtjyEzeJ4iI/AAAAAAAADEw/7RB8SJHYibU/s1600/newtB.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 211px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 167px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5681557094277964322" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ti_anSUgYtc/TtjyEzeJ4iI/AAAAAAAADEw/7RB8SJHYibU/s320/newtB.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;y crested lizard, pock-marked skin and flabby jowls, that emits a foul-smelling odour, ruthlessly catches and devours its prey but takes off like a scalded cat when threatened itself. It was thus with uncanny clairvoyance that the parents of Newton Leroy Gingrich named him Newt when he was born (created?) in 1943. For arguably he’s the most vile repulsive polymer-based life form on the face of the planet at this time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why do I say that? Where to begin? Well, Newt’s a great believer in Christian Marriage, so enthusiastic for it that he’s been married three time already. He married the first (Jackie Battley) while he was still a schoolboy and she his geometry teacher, and from whom, I would imagine he learned a few nifty new angles. But sadly, she contracted serious cancer. One day he got up, went to his critically ill wife in hospital and forced her to sign divorce papers. Meanwhile the next Mrs. Gingrich (Marianne Ginther) was at home in Wife One’s bed, having spent the night therein shagging Gingrich. According to L.H. Carter, his campaign treasurer, Gingrich said of Battley:&lt;em&gt; "She's not young enough or pretty enough to be the wife of the President. And besides, she has &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yjfTpZV1i64/Ttjx6acK3TI/AAAAAAAADEk/mqC7AuKDrwA/s1600/newt2O.jpg"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 197px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 255px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5681556915760061746" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yjfTpZV1i64/Ttjx6acK3TI/AAAAAAAADEk/mqC7AuKDrwA/s320/newt2O.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;cancer&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sheer class.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Wife Two didn’t look after her health. Big mistake. Newt likes his wives to be brimming with health. Despite his enthusiasm for Christian Marriage, he never seemed to have got to the ‘for better or worse’ bit, and when Marianne got multiple sclerosis she was ditched by this noxious repellant creep. But not before he had milked some publicity out of it by performing his Caring Husband routine for the benefit of the assembled MSM presstitutes. And there was yet another factor that hastened her demise. For the future Speaker of the House of Representatives was in the saddle yet again, this time with a young lady who was, ahem, working under him on one of his campaigns at the time. Callista Bisek was also nearly a quarter of a century younger than him (still is).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apparently he was caught &lt;em&gt;in flagrante delicto&lt;/em&gt; with Callista on top of his office desk by a another campaign worker. Callista seems to possess Newt’s moral flexibility for she professes to be a ‘devout Roman Catholic’. I see, a devout Catholic shagging a married man on his office desk while his wife suffered at home with MS. In any event, she’s so devout that Newt has now decided to ‘convert’ to Catholicism. Isn't that something? What was the Damascene spur? Was it at a moment of climax as he called out the Holy Name? Who knows? The Lord moves in mysterious ways. Or maybe he’s negotiating with the Pope for some high-value indulgences in exchange for who knows what? He could do with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now you must understand that while all of this was going on Newt was leading the campaign in the House against Bill Clinton for his ‘immoral’ behavior. While simultaneously presiding over the passage of the Defense of Marriage Act. But he has taken, in fairness, firm and principled on several issues, such as the fate of Freddie Mac and Fannie May and House healthcare initiatives. He was so p&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Vg-OTmXopGQ/Ttjwjq03oRI/AAAAAAAADEM/WKy4pbzs9Ew/s1600/newt2ull.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 297px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 203px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5681555425510007058" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Vg-OTmXopGQ/Ttjwjq03oRI/AAAAAAAADEM/WKy4pbzs9Ew/s320/newt2ull.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;rincipled that it took him tens of millions of dollars to switch his support to the opposite side. Newt in fairness doesn’t give up his principles cheaply.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The scale, depth and sheer brazenness of his corruption were so bad that even the House of Representatives, that bought and paid for den of thieves and charlatans, could no longer stomach it and fined him $300,000, the first time in the House's 200-year history it had discipline&amp;shy;d a Speaker for ethical wrongdoing&amp;shy;.. Nice one, Newt! And this despite the fact that as Speaker of the House he had appointed the ethics committee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Newt also likes wars, especially those being pushed by the Israelis, and is now a passionate advocate for attacking Iran. Of course, like all the rest of the chicken hawks, his passion for wars doesn’t extend to his actually taking part in them. But you kinda guessed that, didn’t you? He enthusiastically supported the Vietnam adventure but dodged the draft by marrying his teacher and deploying a range of other dodges. Still, he was a great supporter of ‘our brave troops’ and doubtless wept copious tears as the body bags landed by the tens of thousands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But ironically, this high-minded patriotism was his undoing. Listen to Newt &lt;em&gt;"I was doing things that were wrong, and yet, I was doing them because I worked too hard".&lt;/em&gt; Why? “&lt;em&gt;Because I felt passionately ... about this country."&lt;/em&gt; Poor guy, he was wrapped so tight in the flag, it must have cut off the air supply to his head. So now we know that all the adultery, corruption, about-faces and multiple marriages occurred because he worked so hard for the America he loves so much! So can you imagine what he’ll be like if he has to handle a Presidential workload? Well Callista will be for the chop, that’s for sure. Meanwhile she’d better stay real close to her doctor. Have even the mildest sniffle checked out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And talking of Presidential workloads I see that Gingrich is now leading the Republican field. As I asked in a recent post, can it be an accident that the American political system (especially the Republicans) throws up (appropriate that!) such a vile, degenerate, noxious, repulsive, ignorant and incoherent selection of candidates? Is the political system so debased that a country that has lead the world in almost every arena for the last century cannot do better? Or does it mean that the real wielders of power arrange things so that they have vulnerable bought-and-paid-for sock puppets in the White House at all times?

These were characterised by guilt-ridden defendants piteously confessing to a whole series of utterly implausible crimes, and begging to be severely punished for them. I could never figure out why they did this, as the net result was execution whether they pleaded guilty or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was reminded of this with the latest developments from the ex Mayor Scully saga. As was shown in &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/11/shurely-shome-mishtake.html"&gt;this post&lt;/a&gt;, the guy was, within days of saying he found black Africans aggressive and bad mannered, hounded out of office and complained to the police. He now faces the very real prospect of a criminal conviction, with all that that entails in terms of travelling abroad and eligibility for a range of statutory positions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will we ever see a victim of the peecee Thought Police stand up and tell his detractors to take a flying fuck? Ok, easier said than done, but Scully’s surrender was simply stomach-churning in its grovelling obsequiousness. His apology to the black cultural enrichers was ‘&lt;em&gt;total’, ‘unreserved’&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;‘totally retracted’&lt;/em&gt;. The &lt;em&gt;Irish Slimes&lt;/em&gt;, in a gloating article, notes approvingly that &lt;em&gt;“pausing for long moments, choking on words, eyes brimming he admits that he physically retched due to the pressure. He shudders and begs imploringly ‘please believe me, I am not a racist’. He continues haltingly, tears trickling down his face……. Scully is in a lonely, frightening and confusing place.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And of course the cultural enrichers and their Immigration Industry representatives have got into the act big time. They want Scully expelled from the Council itself, thereby depriving him of his actual livelihood. This from people who ceaselessly lecture us on the need for tolerance. And a special group of Africans has been set up to capitalise on the event – well officially because they now walk in fear over the Mayor’s comments. I’ll bet Lagos must feel sooooo safe by comparison. And, building on the legendary and exemplary democratic polity of Nigeria they want him to be expelled from his political party, Fine Gael. &lt;em&gt;‘There can be no place in Irish political parties for racists’.&lt;/em&gt; Well, if you say so Mr. Asylum Tourist, who are we mere Irish who’ve been here for 4,000 years to argue?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And this brings me to the main point of this post. Namely, that 1938-style confessions get you nowhere. In fact the vultures smell cowardice and pile in on the ravaged carcass with even greater venom. Will we ever – ever – see the day when somebody will fight back and tell them to shove it? Easy for me to say, I suppose, especially given our draconian ‘hate speech’ legislation. There is one consolation is that between 80% and 90% of emails and radio call-ins were supportive of Scully. In one show the presenter was unable to read out any comments because any one of them could have landed him in jail and the station in dire financial trouble!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That again is why the old Leninist dictum 'worse is better' applies now more than ever. The worse our economies get the more desperate and angry people will become. And the more likely a massive popular revolt against the oppression will arise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sad and regrettable, but that is what it will take.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-7365122058584739599?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/7365122058584739599/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=7365122058584739599' title='91 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/7365122058584739599'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/7365122058584739599'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/11/at-last-1938-show.html' title='At last The 1938 Show'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>91</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-7632585564159578220</id><published>2011-11-25T01:03:00.004Z</published><updated>2011-11-25T01:11:45.456Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sweden'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Islam'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nordic'/><title type='text'>Muslim flung out of train.  Just for praying!</title><content type='html'>What a shocking headline on &lt;em&gt;The Local&lt;/em&gt;, Sweden’s English language propaganda sheet.&lt;em&gt; “Muslim man flung off train for praying”.&lt;/em&gt; Now I know Sweden has become anti-religious, but this was ridiculous. A gentle passenger, bowing his head in silent prayer when suddenly, he’s seized by several burly guards and hurdled headlong from the speeding train. Well, that's the impression I got from the headline.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Poor guy. Was he killed when he hit the ground? Surely seriously injured at least? And all because of a silent prayer. And because he was a Muslim, of course.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Ouaeu2Xpo-U/Ts7psUAo_MI/AAAAAAAADEA/SxHd0kL9jSM/s1600/fallingO.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 165px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5678733127655685314" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Ouaeu2Xpo-U/Ts7psUAo_MI/AAAAAAAADEA/SxHd0kL9jSM/s320/fallingO.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I forced myself to read further to discover the grisly details. Which turned out to be not so grisly&lt;em&gt;. On his daily commute to Flen from his work in the capital, the 35-year-old man needed to carry out some of his daily prayers. ”I started to pray but then the conductor arrived and shoved me three times in the back almost causing me to topple over. Then she said 'Show me the ticket! Hey!',” the man told news site Nyheter24.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found this a bit surprising because having frequently travelled on Swedish public transport I found the most remarkable thing was that the guards just ignored ‘people of colour’. They could jump over the barriers, and, so it seemed to me, guards would look the other way when checking tickets on-board. As regards upsetting a Religion of Peacenik, well, that’s off the Richter scale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;The man refused to show his monthly rail pass to the female conductor as he felt he couldn't interrupt his prayers once he had started. But of course! The man was told he would have to get off the train at the next stop. ”She was ice cold. I feel demeaned and discriminated against” &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well done Mohammed, you’re learning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;The man later contacted the train services customer service department where they agreed that it was not acceptable and sent him a voucher worth 1,000 kronor ($152). But to the 35-year-old it is not about money but getting satisfaction. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But of course!&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;According to Nyheter24, the incident has been reported to the Swedish Equality Ombudsman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me make a wild guess at what happens next. Ticket collector gets suspended while an investigation takes place. She’ll end up getting a severe warning and he’ll get a handsome cash settlement.

Now before you go all weepy on me, you must understand that Irish military tragedies are not in the league of those suffered by Paulus’ Sixth Army at Stalingrad, or the British cavalry at Balaclava. Still, all this week the streets of Mullingar were thronged by the brave soldiers’ distraught women-folk. There were heart-rending scenes of traumatised children as the horrific realisation dawned that whole families were irretrievably damaged. The drama was captured 24X7 on our TV sets as the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse saddled up to stalk the ruined land. Eventually I could take no more, and retired, a broken man, to recuperate in my boudoir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You want to hear about the tragedy? Are you made of stern stuff? If not, leave right now. Ok, if you’re still with me, here’s the story. They’re closing the army barracks in Mullingar and the soldiers will have to drive 14 miles up the road to the barracks in Longford. Where they were all massacred to a man, in hideous circumstances? No. They’ll just have to drive 14 &lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kp6zs-gaiKU/Tsris8L4SvI/AAAAAAAADD0/JN8eC_sNVhY/s1600/soldieWNWB4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 259px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 194px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5677599541952006898" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kp6zs-gaiKU/Tsris8L4SvI/AAAAAAAADD0/JN8eC_sNVhY/s320/soldieWNWB4.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;miles to work instead of toddling up the road as heretofore. That’s what brought the whole mid-west region to a standstill, and the resignation of a Government Minister.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those of you in the real world must understand that the Irish army possesses some other unique characteristics. One of which is to never, ever, ever be exposed to danger. We go on international ‘peace-keeping’ missions only under the strict proviso that &lt;em&gt;‘our troops must in no circumstances be put at risk’&lt;/em&gt;. Consequently, if and when the shooting starts our heroes are whisked to safety before you can say &lt;em&gt;‘remind me again why I joined the army’.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nice work if you can get it. And it pays well. Very well. The rudest most basic private gets by on €36,000 a year, plus a whole host of supplements if he’s on ‘active service’ abroad (see above). Net effect he earns more than twice that of his equivalent British squaddy getting perforated and blown up in Afghanistan (nearly 400 killed to date). Not bad for a bankrupt country, and I’m sure the Germans currently picking up the tab will continue to be very understanding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And if you don’t like noise, well you’re really in the money. You know, noise that emanates from guns and things like that. Over €600 million has been paid out to wounded veterans who had to endure such loud banging in earlier days. Then there's Victor Murtagh who heard a couple of really loud bangs while he was in Lebanon. I wrote &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2008/07/were-boys-who-fear-no-noise.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; that with a name like Victor it's probably not surprising that he apparently &lt;em&gt;'always wanted to be a soldier'&lt;/em&gt;, presumably attracted by the cut and thrust of battle and the adrenalin rush of taking it to the enemy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here's the story. He joins the Irish Army and gets trained in the skills of combat. Gets posted to Lebanon in due course. But then things start to go wrong. Horribly wrong. He heard a &lt;em&gt;'loud explosion'&lt;/em&gt; down the road which frightened the shit out of him. But then he heard that two other soldiers were killed (imagine that, soldiers killed!). The Horror! The Horror! He became very upset. Very upset indeed.So decided to sue the army. And he gets awarded €300k.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You think I’m kidding?

Their everyday experience shows them the polar opposite. They see black failure, violence and societal breakdown everywhere. They see once-great cities degenerate into bankruptcy and barbarity once blacks become a majority. They see every second black politician mired in corruption and pork politics. Their immediate experience of AA blacks in the workplace reveals the depth of blacks’ incompetence and incapacity for productive work. This has reached its apotheosis with the first AA President. How’s that working out, by the way?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now you’d imagine with all of this that Americans would be saying &lt;em&gt;‘Jesus Christ, never ever ever ever can we let a black near the levers of power again’&lt;/em&gt;. On the contrary, it now looks quite likely that the next Presidential Election will be between two blacks. How insane is that? That the people who built America can’t produce a single person capable of running the country, resorting instead to two members of the most incompetent and corrupt race?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beats me, that’s for sure.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-8528404524018001672?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/8528404524018001672/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=8528404524018001672' title='86 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8528404524018001672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8528404524018001672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/11/beats-me.html' title='Beats me...'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>86</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-3666992750822340595</id><published>2011-11-14T20:09:00.004Z</published><updated>2011-11-15T17:39:41.773Z</updated><title type='text'>There's none so blind........</title><content type='html'>Over at &lt;a href="http://www.occidentaldissent.com/"&gt;Occidental Dissent &lt;/a&gt;they're printed an excerpt of a new book by historian Eric Foner entitled &lt;em&gt;Reconstruction: America's Unfinished Revolution&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“Secessionist emissaries spread a nightmare vision of Republican rule.

In a nutshell this says that Jews gain power, wealth and influence out of all proportion to their numbers. This derives from high intelligence, indefatigability, group networking and ruthless application in seeking their objectives. The Dilemma comes into play because &lt;em&gt;‘they’re never satisfied’&lt;/em&gt;, keep pushing the goys for more and more until eventually the goyim rise up in terrible anger. According to my friend Amine, this explains nearly all the 100 plus expulsions throughout history.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don’t know to what extent this is true. But it seems to me that we’ll find out if the Israeli Lobby steamrolls America and its British lapdogs into a war against Iran. Because even the most TV-lobotomised drones are beginning to realise that none of the recent wars were/are in the interests of the US. It’s dawning on an increasing number that the AIPAC-bought Congress and the Jewish-owned MSM are priming them for yet more sacrifice of blood and treasure. On Israel’s behalf.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And it’s not just Iran. The OWS protests exhibit growing evidence of anti-Semitism, hardly surprising given the prevalence of Jews among the banksters and government elite who caused the economic catastrophe. And I note that in Boston the Israeli consulate has been occupied by these people. Even a &lt;a href="http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2009/02/bike-store-in-iceland-no-bikes-for-jews.html"&gt;bike store in Iceland &lt;/a&gt;had a notice up saying ‘No Jews allowed’. This is new territory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At a more general level I also see a growing awareness (maybe I’m wrong here) by whites of the way their race has been demonised and discriminated against at every hand’s turn, and that this is driven and maintained by Jewish organisations and the Jewish-controlled MSM. The reaction to anti-Jewish comments on numerous blogs that I read has changed significantly in the last year or so. Previously such comments were ‘not liked’ by a substantial majority. Now I see that this has been turned on its head with a similar proportion ‘liking’ them. And there’s an increasing number of people like me (see for example the two previous posts) who feel affronted that they’ve been taken in by a massive mental programming and propaganda attack through the course of their lifetimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But back to Iran. I believe that this time the threat is real. Why? The drumbeats for war have never been louder in the main TV channels (Faux News a particular offender) and it reminds me soh much of the conditioning for the Iraq adventure. I believe that if/when it does happen the American people will rise up in outraged rebellion. &lt;em&gt;A War Too Far&lt;/em&gt;, as it were. I don’t expect to see army mutinies or civil war scale scenarios, at least not initially. Rather I see a Great Awakening as a critical mass of people start to join up the dots and see how they’ve been willing dupes to an agenda that has impoverished them in terms of treasure and blood. The Jewish Dilemma come to life, as it were.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My main purpose in writing this post is to appeal to those Jews (the majority?) who know nothing of the &lt;em&gt;Hochjuden&lt;/em&gt; agenda, or, if they do, oppose it. Many of this blog’s readers will jump in and dispute this – all Jews are in on the game. To them I say you’re wrong. I know plenty of Jews. Most of them have no idea of what’s being done ‘on their behalf’ to white gentiles. They see their interests and ours as the same. I also know a few who are well aware of what’s going on but deny it and play along. For them I don’t have much sympathy. For the others I say, for God’s sake and your own, try to put a stop to what your co-ethnics are doing, and if that proves impossible (which it probably is), publicly put clear daylight between them and you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a few suggestions. Establish organisations such as:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Jews against foreign wars&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Jews against Affirmative Action and denigration of the white race&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Jews against mass immigration&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Jews for 911 Truth&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think about it. Your survival might depend on it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-1137738617453447605?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/1137738617453447605/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=1137738617453447605' title='151 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1137738617453447605'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1137738617453447605'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/11/great-awakening.html' title='A Great Awakening?'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>151</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-756090924834424884</id><published>2011-11-06T21:25:00.005Z</published><updated>2011-11-06T21:42:34.135Z</updated><title type='text'>The strange, strange case of Max Täubner</title><content type='html'>The SS Einsatzgruppen were a para-police unit that ‘cleaned up’ behind main German army lines in eastern Europe and Russia during WW2. Cleaned up, we might add, with merciless brutality. SS-Untersturmführer Max Täubner commanded a workshop detail in the brigade and was tried along with four other Waffen-SS men for unauthorised and sadistic killings of a large number of Jews, and also for taking photos of the killings showing them to his wife and friends. In the verdict the court states &lt;em&gt;"The accused allowed his men to act with such vicious brutality that they conducted themselves under his command like a savage horde".&lt;/em&gt; Accordingly the court handed down a substantial jail sentence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0_5kjSlOlmA/Trb7ir3WHPI/AAAAAAAADDQ/vP_y9c5gQF8/s1600/Max%2BTaubner%2Bportrait.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 184px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 229px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5671997354028702962" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0_5kjSlOlmA/Trb7ir3WHPI/AAAAAAAADDQ/vP_y9c5gQF8/s320/Max%2BTaubner%2Bportrait.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This seems a run-of-the-mill war crimes trial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apart from one thing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The court was not that of the victorious Allies, rather it was an SS court, held in May 1943. That’s right. Now an SS court punishing an SS unit for massacring Jews, even in particularly brutal and sadistic fashion, seems a bit like giving a speeding ticket to a driver at the Indianapolis 500. After all, every schoolboy knows that the &lt;em&gt;raison d’etre&lt;/em&gt; of the SS einsatzgruppen was to locate and kill every Jew they could find.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wasn’t it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well hardly, if the case of Max Täubner is anything to go by. If you check out the various sources you’ll frequently see his case referred to as &lt;em&gt;‘the only known instance of an SS man being tried for killing Jews’.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Was it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don’t know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I &lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;do &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;know is that I don’t know what’s true anymore, especially in relation to the whole Nazi period. What I &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;do&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; know, from this case and from some other that I’ll write about shortly, is that our minds have been, and are being, seriously fucked with. After a lifetime of believing myself to be well-read and well-informed, I now feel more like Truman in &lt;em&gt;The Truman Show&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On account of this I feel angry and almost humiliated.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-756090924834424884?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/756090924834424884/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=756090924834424884' title='85 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/756090924834424884'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/756090924834424884'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/11/strange-strange-case-of-max-taubner.html' title='The strange, strange case of Max Täubner'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0_5kjSlOlmA/Trb7ir3WHPI/AAAAAAAADDQ/vP_y9c5gQF8/s72-c/Max%2BTaubner%2Bportrait.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>85</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-6356468060241294381</id><published>2011-11-03T10:19:00.011Z</published><updated>2011-11-03T12:18:30.899Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='israel'/><title type='text'>Lucky Larry: The luckiest man alive</title><content type='html'>They say it’s better to be born lucky than, eh, something or other. If so, Larry Silverstein is your man. What a lucky guy! No wonder he’s smiling. Consider this. Every, every, every morning Larry had breakfast with his son and daughter at the Window On The World restaurant on the top floor of the World Trade Center. Except for the morning of September 11, 2001. Boy, wasn’t that luck?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And where wa&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3saG2zKRYH0/TrJqwWjZxxI/AAAAAAAADDE/lJJ3IxFckFM/s1600/larryTN.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 168px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 212px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5670712259733210898" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3saG2zKRYH0/TrJqwWjZxxI/AAAAAAAADDE/lJJ3IxFckFM/s320/larryTN.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;s he on that day? &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ScGZCqEyGM&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt; you can listen to him explain. &lt;em&gt;“Eh, I, um, cough, er, ahem, cough, I was at home, mumble, mumble”.&lt;/em&gt; What a lucky guy. But what about his unfortunate children, incinerated in the carnage of that day? Well, he’s lucky again! His son was, eh, somewhere else that morning. The first time in months that he wasn’t at the WTC. But the poor daughter then? More luck! She too was, ahem, somewhere else that morning. Like the son, missing for the first time in months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Larry’s luck didn’t end there. You see, when Larry bought the WTC buildings, many people thought he was crazy. The owners were finding it difficult to get tenants, and faced a multi-billion-dollar asbestos-removal court order. Some figures put the bill so high that knocking them would have been more economical. Especially when tenants were so hard to come by.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Larry was struggling. But he got lucky yet again! Yes sirree! You see, in an act of breathtaking perspicacity and foresight, he insured the buildings for billions……..in the event of their being destroyed by terrorist attack. How the insurers must have laughed as they lodged his premium. But then, literally out of the blue, a few weeks later, the unimaginable happened. The buildings were destroyed by terrorists, and Larry collected his payout. All his problems solved, including the tricky asbestos one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But there’s more! In a TV interview he said that he gave the order to ‘pull’ the WTC 7 building because of the danger to fire fighters. (There were in fact none in the building, just some highly incriminating documents relating to Enron and other sensitive issues). Now it normally takes between four and six weeks to rig such a building for demolition, but somehow Larry was able to magically pull it off in about five minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is that luck or what?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And his luck continues to this day. Given what I've described above, some begrudgers, most notably the insurance companies and the MSM’s investigative journalists (is that an oxymoron?) might be expected to raise awkward questions. But happily, not a bit of it! It all went swimmingly. Money was paid over, no awkward questions asked. Could it be something to do with the fact that the insurance companies are to a great extent re-insured by Munich Reinsurance Corp? What a blessing for the Germans, who are yet again happily contributing financially to God’s own people. And a few weeks ago, on the tenth anniversary of the terrible event, there was Larry on the podium, an honoured guest, as those assembled commemorated the tragedy and mourned the victims.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Larry Silverstein, the luckiest man alive. Seven billion the richer, I'm sure he’ll pass some of it on to a needy and so helpful Israel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;[PS: Since I posted this 4 of the first 6 comments have been redirected to Blogger's Spam purgatory.

With a language and culture going back over a millennium, they have survived in one of the world’s most inhospitable environments. Frozen over for half the year, and at any time liable to be engulfed by an earthquake, smothered by a volcano or swamped by a tsunami , they have not alone survived, but prospered. Until the recent depredations visited on them by their own banksters they consistently featured amount the top handful of countries in the Human Development Index. (They’re still there but understandably have fallen a bit).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You should note that this capacity to prosper in adverse conditions is the polar opposite of Africa, where, even with abundant natural wealth and resources, the population is mired in poverty and ignorance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A reader in Iceland sent me &lt;a href="http://www.grapevine.is/News/ReadArticle/Paul-Ramses-Running-for-President-of-Iceland"&gt;this link&lt;/a&gt;, which so enraged me that, to use Uncle Nasty’s term, I nearly curried my drawers in fury. It’s about Kenyan ‘asylum’ seeker Paul Ramses (who fled from Italy!) who’s taken up residence &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Kt7aYSKBY2w/TrBTAMsTH3I/AAAAAAAADCs/DrNSw_CPygI/s1600/iceland0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 281px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 196px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5670123193731587954" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Kt7aYSKBY2w/TrBTAMsTH3I/AAAAAAAADCs/DrNSw_CPygI/s320/iceland0.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;in Iceland, and who has now been granted citizenship. Bad enough, you might say. But grit your teeth and hold on to something solid while I tell you of his plans. Not alone is he threatening to &lt;em&gt;“live in Iceland for the rest of his life“ &lt;/em&gt;he plans to start his own mini-tribe there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"I'm African&lt;/em&gt;," he said. &lt;em&gt;"I want 12 children. So I have ten to go&lt;/em&gt;." So instead of cringing with shame and embarrassment at the prospect of unleashing a mob of retarded, welfare-dependent, criminal parasites on the unfortunate Icelandic public, he brags about it. He didn‘t mention that it‘s also the African way to dump the care ond maintenance of said chirrun on the ever-accommodating and much vilified white man.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But that‘s not the best of it! He also intends to run for President! And what does this unemployed, ignorant useless parasite bring to the Presidential Table? Sadly, he doesn‘t specify. Perhaps, looking far down to the south west he sees another Kenyan who made President, whose only experience was that of a 'community organiser‘. Maybe Ramses will become a community organiser as well? And how about this for confidence: "&lt;em&gt;I've already written my acceptance speech. That time will undoubtedly come."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This delusional self-confidence doesn‘t develop by accident. I‘d bet that this guy is a celebrity in Iceland. That they‘ve bought into the endless stream of MSM/Hollywood propaganda telling us how gifted and intelligent black people are, and how they add vibrancy to our societies and enrich them. On that topic, Iceland‘s population is a minuscule 300,000. Can you imagine the impact of this guy‘s twelve offspring (who‘ll start vigorously reproducing once they reach puberty) on an unsuspecting population of young Icelandic women? (Not to mention those he'll knock up himself in due course - that's also the 'African way'). Do the maths. It wouldn‘t take more than a few generations for the island‘s gene pool to become seriously polluted with the African strain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is nowhere safe?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-4736532853989067608?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/4736532853989067608/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=4736532853989067608' title='69 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4736532853989067608'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4736532853989067608'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/11/is-anywhere-safe.html' title='Is anywhere safe?'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Kt7aYSKBY2w/TrBTAMsTH3I/AAAAAAAADCs/DrNSw_CPygI/s72-c/iceland0.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>69</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-6106759321088922946</id><published>2011-10-28T21:16:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-10-28T21:23:44.508Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ireland'/><title type='text'>Riddle me this......again.</title><content type='html'>The over-riding and all-consuming priority for every politician in a parliamentary democracy is to hold onto his seat. (I derive intense satisfaction from not saying ‘his or her’ seat). Irish politicians, due to the multi-seat proportional representation system, are more sensitive than most, as there are only a handful of really safe seats in the whole country. To keep his seat the pol must keep his constituents happy. This involved diverting as much government largesse as possible to his constituency, and above all in avoiding closure of police stations, hospitals, schools quangos or any other publicly funded institution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now given the financial calamity that has befallen this country, the government has had to get around to taking such measures. Slowly, painfully, reluctantly, but it’s happening nonetheless. Predictably, as when a barracks get closed as in Athlone, or a hospital unit in Roscommon, the life of the local government representatives becomes a nightmare. And their careers are likely to be doomed come the next election.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Naturally, the pols do everything in their power to prevent such cash-saving actions. They cajole very Minister, threaten to leave the party, to vote against it, to join the opposition or whatever. The pressure on those around the Cabinet table is immense. They labour long into the night to find the least politically damaging way to implement IMF-mandated savings. Hugely unpopular measures such as those I've mentioned have to be taken, as do more general ones such as the removal of special needs teachers. Facing constituents in these circumstances must be a dispiriting experience. Small wonder that the battles are so fierce and prolonged.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Often the savings, like the few I've already mentioned, are quite small, say €10 million annually. But they still get shoved through. They scour every item of expenditure to save a million here, a million there. Always with an eye to the political impact (i.e. their careers). Awful, painful, career-ending cuts must be made.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But must they? Lying on the table, in all its glory, lies an annualised pot of about €700 million which the pols could redeploy overnight with zero impact on the voting public. The initiatives I've referred to, and dozens more, could be reversed and with cash left over. So why in the name of Jesus do they not grab the loot? Because it’s Foreign Aid. I.e. it’s going in to dictators’ Swiss bank accounts, or flying their mistresses for a weekend shopping at Harrod’s. Ireland has given Uganda over €100 million. Uganda has spent over €100 million buying, wait for it, jet fighters!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As they tear at each other around the Cabinet table, closing down a hospital unit to save a few million, why doesn’t someone say, no, scream, ‘&lt;em&gt;why the fuck are we talking about closing a hospital here when we could keep it open, and a dozen others like it, by keeping what we toss away on foreign aid?&lt;/em&gt;’ Seems a reasonable question, doesn’t it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet it remains, apart from some minor reduction, sacrosanct.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Go figure!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-6106759321088922946?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/6106759321088922946/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=6106759321088922946' title='39 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/6106759321088922946'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/6106759321088922946'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/10/riddle-me-thisagain.html' title='Riddle me this......again.'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>39</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-4388474603036076467</id><published>2011-10-27T08:22:00.002Z</published><updated>2011-10-27T08:24:35.421Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='South Africa'/><title type='text'>SAS/Uhuru Guru back</title><content type='html'>Great news: Having overcome the enormous personal and professional blows visited on him by the thought police in South Africa, good old UG is &lt;a href="http://uhuruguru.blogspot.com/"&gt;back&lt;/a&gt; and in rare form.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-4388474603036076467?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/4388474603036076467/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=4388474603036076467' title='11 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4388474603036076467'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4388474603036076467'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/10/sasuhuru-guru-back.html' title='SAS/Uhuru Guru back'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-6703247977926819402</id><published>2011-10-25T23:14:00.001Z</published><updated>2011-10-25T23:16:38.969Z</updated><title type='text'>Society degenerating before our eyes.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/sex-on-city-bus-453719#fbcomments"&gt;Read&lt;/a&gt; all about it.

Team 'mates', opponents, 'supporters' and opposing followers all gave vent to the worst insults they could think up. Facial features ('monkey'), size ('ya fucking dwarf'), religion ('Tague bastards'), region ('sheep shagging bastards') and just about anything else was deployed as deemed appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And nobody gave a damn. The insults for all intent and purposes went in one ear and out the other. The idea of one player taking official action on the basis of an insult would be so far from our world as to be quite literally incomprehnsible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But that was then, this is now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;John Terry calls Anton Ferdinand a 'fucking black bastard' and all hell breaks loose. In the middle of Presidential elelctions here, the Euro going down the tube, turmoil in the Middle East, the incident dominates the headlines in Britain and Ireland. Think about it. One footballer insults another and it's headline news. And of course it's headline news for one reason only. The insult was racially based.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have indeed taken collective leave of our senses. I'm not sure whether more of this insanity will lead towards a Great Awakening or whether it will just copper-fasten and normalise the insanity.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-4736734017870118032?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/4736734017870118032/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=4736734017870118032' title='82 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4736734017870118032'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4736734017870118032'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/10/weve-taken-collective-leave-of-our.html' title='We&apos;ve taken collective leave of our senses'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wVrHxAqEybE/TqcYzzSVKII/AAAAAAAADCg/WZALHQr22qQ/s72-c/terry.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>82</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-1844242488629046829</id><published>2011-10-24T15:45:00.002Z</published><updated>2011-10-24T15:50:12.073Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Immigration'/><title type='text'>Seems fair to me.....</title><content type='html'>A reader sent in this link from the Irish Independent. Worth a read.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's not that I have anything against human rights, you understand, but when you get to a situation where the rules are being bent so badly that an illegal immigrant claims [sucessfully] the fact that he has a cat gives him the right to stay in the country, you know you've gone down some strange and terrible rabbit hole where nothing makes sense any more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, in fairness to the Brits, they have reacted to mounting criticism of the abuse of the system by cracking down and cracking down hard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indeed, the most recent example of this tough justice came only last Friday with the news that 88-year-old Lydia Werrit is to be deported back to her native Zimbabwe because she has outstayed her visa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Werrit had her farm occupied by some of Mugabe's people and she fled the country in terror, but now immigration officials have decided that she "faces no immediate danger" and is to be sent back to her home country.

It’s been called the Heart of E&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vxeM5__UktE/TqHSwijqarI/AAAAAAAADCU/FoX8AHgJ4K4/s1600/cotswold.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 244px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 162px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5666041537560734386" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vxeM5__UktE/TqHSwijqarI/AAAAAAAADCU/FoX8AHgJ4K4/s320/cotswold.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ngland.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the Cotswolds suffer from a dreadful drawback: They lack diversity. Hence they are not vibrant. Otherwise they’d be really perfect. They are more like &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2009/04/more-double-standards.html"&gt;York&lt;/a&gt;, and not at all like &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2007/05/even-bbc-gets-it.html"&gt;Blackburn&lt;/a&gt; or Dewsbury.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, &lt;em&gt;nil desperandum&lt;/em&gt;! Salvation beckons. Because, while diversity may not have yet arrived, it’s getting closer every day. For example, just about twenty miles up the road, in Dudley, we can get a thrilling preview of the kind of vibrant diversity I have in mind.

And I often wondered how far her in-your-face religiosity was a cover for the more basic objective of parting pious hillbillies from their money. But a recent revelation shows that she’s the real deal all right. A true Catholic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You see, it’s emerged that she’s been sheltering a child sexual abuser in her ranks for a long time. And to sweeten it up, the creep is her own brother and business partner. Step up John Brown, who admitted to getting down and dirty with his niece when she was a child. But don’t worry, apparently he told the girl’s father that &lt;em&gt;‘I know God has forgiven me’&lt;/em&gt;. Ah well, that’s ok then. Mind you he didn’t specify how exactly The Lord conveyed this act of forgiveness, but no matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How did it all come to light? Well, in the best traditions of spiritual guides down the centuries, it was an unseemly fight over loot. In this instance from Dana’s ‘religious’ music. And the viciousness displayed was almost, well, religious in its intensity. As a result of all this (and more) her remaining supporters could now be comfortably be accommodated in an average-sized phone box.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And she’s just lost another of her dwindling band. Thomas McNally is just the kind of person that would support Dana. Deeply pious, religious, and making a damn good living out of fooling the rubes. His racket was Mass cards. For those of you not of a spiritual dispensation, the purchase of a Mass card results in a priest saying a Mass for you. This can be an economy version for about €5, or the deluxe edition for up to €25. Presumably God will bestow greater benefits for the deluxe version. What’s the point otherwise?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But it seems Tom suffered from the failing so common with pious clericalist Catholics. He liked little boys and girls. Naked. And performing various sex acts. Unfortunately for Tom his stash of child porn was found by the cops and he’s now sleeping in a cell at state expense. Another vote for Dana gone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And as I'm on about religious hypocrites, where to leave Rick Perry, and his lovely wife Anita? Apparently God is getting involved in American politics again. Now would you not think that He would butt out having been such a disaster when He advised GW Bush? Anyway, Anita tells us that ‘&lt;em&gt;God was already speaking to me’&lt;/em&gt; (i.e. about getting Rick to run for President) ‘&lt;em&gt;but Rick said he needed to see the burning bush’&lt;/em&gt;. Well, so would I. There’s no way I'd run for Pres without a &lt;u&gt;clear uninterrupted&lt;/u&gt; sighting of a bush in flames. And that’s a fact.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But sadly, there was no such sighting on Rick’s part. So Anita, here’s a tip for free. Tell Rick to watch you, then light a match between your legs. Burning bush problem solved! Just like that!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-8842210740039321687?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/8842210740039321687/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=8842210740039321687' title='29 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8842210740039321687'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8842210740039321687'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/10/john-browns-body-lieson-top-of-danas.html' title='John Brown’s body lies.....on top of Dana’s niece'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>29</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-5332514634456213801</id><published>2011-10-13T20:07:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-10-13T20:11:01.657Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><title type='text'>What a crock of shit!</title><content type='html'>I've been out of touch for the last few days and don't know any details of the so-called plot by the Iranians to assassinate the Saudi Ambassador, apart from the breathless unquestioning reports from CNN and the rest of the Lamestream Media.

Behind the simpering family values front there’s a money-grubbing viper bursting to get out. I swear she makes me feel like joining the Gay and Lesbian Alliance, or whatever they call it. Thankfully some horrific revelation about her is to break soon, ending whatever chance she had of winning the gig.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s also emerged that when she was over in the US cashing in on the Christian Radio circuit, she, I assume for monetary reasons, became a US citizen. Now as every schoolboy knows, this makes it incumbent on her to bear arms in accordance with US law as and when required. This would pose some interesting possibilities in the&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Jn9IpnJv5kE/Tpc_6yR0elI/AAAAAAAADBw/oeGL60KeQXk/s1600/danaV.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 175px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 187px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5663065335603165778" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Jn9IpnJv5kE/Tpc_6yR0elI/AAAAAAAADBw/oeGL60KeQXk/s320/danaV.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; unlikely event of her being elected, in that she’d be the equivalent of the American Commander-In-Chief in Ireland.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now a war between the USA and Ireland isn’t really likely, although the War Party there must by now be running out of small weak countries to bomb. Let's say we offended Israel and the war actually happened. In that event would we be faced with a heavily-armed Dana up in Phoenix Park, blazing away at her own army? I don’t know, but I think we should be told.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I indicated, the Irish Presidency, and the Irish army for that matter, are both largely ceremonial. Our President has virtually no practical military power, so the locus of her loyalty is irrelevant, despite my jibe above. But what about the vast number of US-Israeli dual citizens that are to be found in virtually every important level in the US diplomatic, military and security arenas? Literally the very top jobs in Homeland Security, the CIA, Defence and State were held by such dual citizens and/or those with very close ties to Israel over the last fifty years or so. Many if not most of those are blatant Israel-Firsters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This makes Dana’s loyalty test distinctly small beer, doesn’t it?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-1971565864938309652?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/1971565864938309652/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=1971565864938309652' title='21 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1971565864938309652'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1971565864938309652'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/10/clash-of-loyalties.html' title='A clash of loyalties?'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Jn9IpnJv5kE/Tpc_6yR0elI/AAAAAAAADBw/oeGL60KeQXk/s72-c/danaV.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>21</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-9126631106979749725</id><published>2011-10-11T21:20:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-10-11T21:31:41.737Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ireland'/><title type='text'>Court jesters</title><content type='html'>I'm endlessly fascinated by court reporting in the &lt;em&gt;Irish Times&lt;/em&gt;. Although taking itself very seriously the IT is notorious for head-scratching headlines. &lt;em&gt;"Dead Man Hit By Car While Crossing Road"&lt;/em&gt; and "&lt;em&gt;Thoughtful Rapist Wore A Condom&lt;/em&gt;" are two that spring to mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But every day brings new wonders. Take today's story about a man who woke in bed and found himself being raped orally and anally at the same time. Now how the hell could that happen? What sort of a contortionist could manage that? Reminds me of the time George Michael was charged for, in effect, performing a homosexual act on his own. Anyway, if any of you can come up with an explanation of how the anal/oral rapist managed it, I'd love to know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then there's the guy who went slashing tires on cars, causing nearly €30,000 worth of damage, as &lt;em&gt;'a protest against capitalism'&lt;/em&gt;. As the baffled judge remarked, it's not at all clear how slashing tires would contribute to the downfall of capitalism. By way of explanation the perp then pointed out that he attacked only those cars registered after 2003. Well, that's ok then.

Here’s what Bono, on a direct flight from Bishop Tutu’s birthday, had to say: “&lt;em&gt;when I hurt my spine tons of stuff arrived at my house from Steve. I found him a wonderful thoughtful friend&lt;/em&gt;”. Now this is Bono-speak for ‘&lt;em&gt;look how an industrial titan is so impressed by me that he’d send me all those things. I’m really important’&lt;/em&gt;. And of course, total bullshit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are some truly horrible CEOs around: Think Larry Ellison, Steve Ballmer, Jack Welch. I've worked or consulted for over 200 companies to date and I can safely say in terms of fear and hatred from his employees none of them came close to Jobs. He made a speciality of humiliating his staff, really rubbing it in, and always in front of an audience. He literally broke many people, and seemed to take pleasure in it. I’ve got emails from people who rejoiced at his progressive decline towards ultimate death. And that’s not usual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And despite the New Age polo shirt image he ran an almost Stalinist organisation. No dissent was permitted – he even had these ‘Loyalty Czars’ (I can’t remember the exact term, but ‘loyalty’ was in there) who went around the world snooping on employees’ emails and even hard drives to identify evidence of ‘disloyalty’. Offenders were despatched with Stalinist ruthlessness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to Bono, the Baron Of Bullshit. Endlessly referring to his ‘friend’ (see, what powerful friends I have!) he assures us that Jobs was also &lt;em&gt;‘a wonderfully detailed and interested parent of his kids’&lt;/em&gt;. Well, even Jobs himself doesn’t seem to think so. He told his biographer that one of his objectives in co-operating on the book was to explain to his kids why this ‘wonderfully detailed and interested parent’ was never there for them. That’s right, he gets a stranger to write a book to explain why.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some parent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And of course he refused to acknowledge his first child, denied paternity until a blood test proved him wrong, upon which he grudgingly caved in. Class.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jobs was indeed an industrial titan, a genius (not for technology but for vision and marketing – and stealing others’ ideas, like the GUI). But he was a deeply, deeply flawed human being who should not be transformed into a saint now that he’s turned toes up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And a concluding thought, isn’t Bono some twat?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-4791777690973775421?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/4791777690973775421/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=4791777690973775421' title='65 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4791777690973775421'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4791777690973775421'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/10/saint-stevens-day.html' title='Saint Steven&apos;s Day'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>65</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-3131775588246676567</id><published>2011-10-08T12:33:00.005Z</published><updated>2011-10-08T12:49:22.820Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Race'/><title type='text'>Something wrong here...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--gOkC_LfUXA/TpBE-WOEOLI/AAAAAAAADBo/OXU6S-Vz078/s1600/downton.png"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 275px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 183px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5661100569511868594" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--gOkC_LfUXA/TpBE-WOEOLI/AAAAAAAADBo/OXU6S-Vz078/s320/downton.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Unless you've been living under a rock for the last year you've heard of, and probably watched the British period drama &lt;em&gt;Downton Abbey&lt;/em&gt;. Set in Edwardian England, it traces the goings-on of the aristocratic Crawley family and has entered the Guinness Book of Records as the &lt;em&gt;'most critically acclaimed television show'&lt;/em&gt; for the year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's been acclaimed far and wide for its 'authenticity', but one glance at the cast made me realise that something was wrong. Terribly wrong. You see, there were no 'people of colour' in the cast! Now a pedant might counter that there weren't too many of those numbered among British royalty a hundred years ago. But when did that ever stop the entertainment industry? I'd wager that there were even fewer black gods in Nordic mythology, but we still got a black &lt;em&gt;Thor&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Personally I'm a bit surprised that we haven't Trevor Phillips and the rest of the Equality Industry up in arms demanding that Whoopie Goldberg play the 12th Marchioness of Pilbury, and a cameo role for Mr. Dizzee Rascal as the Duke of Grantham. It's along series so maybe there's time yet.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-3131775588246676567?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/3131775588246676567/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=3131775588246676567' title='109 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/3131775588246676567'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/3131775588246676567'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/10/something-wrong-here.html' title='Something wrong here...'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--gOkC_LfUXA/TpBE-WOEOLI/AAAAAAAADBo/OXU6S-Vz078/s72-c/downton.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>109</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-8796928556606919357</id><published>2011-10-05T19:20:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-10-05T19:29:21.419Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><title type='text'>A real American</title><content type='html'>Tom Paxton was interviewed in the Irish Times last week. Tom is unhappy with a lot of his fellow countrymen who, he says, don't regard 'our President' as a real American. Well if that's true (and have I any reason to doubt a recovering acid-head?) then it's simply outrageous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because 'our President' is as American as motherhood and apple pie. Think about it. Almost every American I know has a Kenyan father who abandoned him as a child. Most Americans were brought up as Moslems in Indonesia, and I never met an American not having at least one of the President's names, Barak, Hussein or Obama. And I don't know this for sure, but I'll bet all real Americans have forged birth certificates as well. And think there are 57 states in the country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So there you are, a true American.

Hundreds of cops (their coffers supplemented by a 'donation' from Goldman Sachs) face off against them. A mini riot ensues. Similar riots begin to take place all over the US. Looks like the people have risen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stop Press! Front page news!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No. Unbelievably, virtually all of the Lamestream Media outlets have either completely ignored these events, or they've relegated them to some remote corner, dwarfed by Lady Gaga or similar trivia. I've checked &lt;em&gt;CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NY Times, Chicago Tribune&lt;/em&gt; - not a mention. Check it out for yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I see this development, or more accurately lack of development, as far more important than the demos/riots themselves. The banksters, their bought politicians and their media whores are running scared. They must be. There's been a concerted effort to do a &lt;em&gt;Pravda&lt;/em&gt; on these events, just like they tried to blank the 'mahogany mobs' during the Summmer. I can just imagine the frantic phone calls orchestrating the covere-up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I believe they'll have to give way very soon for the same reason they were forced to cover the mobs. The Internet and blogs will blow their cover. God grant that this will segue into a movement of white Americans, the backbone of the country, rising up to reclaim their pre-eminent position and throw down the traitors who have betrayed them.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-3215549044860744822?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/3215549044860744822/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=3215549044860744822' title='50 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/3215549044860744822'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/3215549044860744822'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/10/stunning.html' title='Stunning'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>50</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-3768845377581612262</id><published>2011-09-29T19:19:00.001Z</published><updated>2011-09-29T19:20:58.965Z</updated><title type='text'>To Pincer</title><content type='html'>Hi Pincer - I deleted youre comment by accident even before I'd read it.

As every university undergraduate learns within weeks of arriving, everyone is a victim – apart of course from straight, white Christian males. But who are the top victims? This, like the Premiership, is dominated by a small number of clubs who move up and down relative to one another, but never out of the top six. And remember, just like the Premiership, your place in the hierarchy has a very major impact on your financial wellbeing. In fact, that’s what it’s ultimately all about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For a few decades after WW II Jews almost had the title to themselves, but even they don’t have the chutzpah to claim they’re downtrodden victims today. In any event they’ve cornered the genocide/holocaust market and can trot this out any time a new genocide/holocaust is imminent (e.g. if there’s talk of reducing US aid to Israel or Palestinians getting their own state).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Women have had a great run, most definitely displacing blacks from the top rung for a while. But again, who can seriously claim victimhood status for them? Polar opposite, they’ll clean out men in a divorce, any complaint of sexual harassment will be accepted and the unfortunate able-bodied straight white Christian male gets the book thrown at him. They’re promoted way beyond their capabilities in every organisation, and have been forced into those where they have no business whatsoever (military, police, fire fighters).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite having hairy-chested foul-smelling dykes like Andrea Dworkin leading their cause, Perverts United (gays, lesbians, trans-sexuals) have been climbing the table strongly in recent years. They’ve surpassed females for sure. Remember the case during the Summer when two sheboons kicked the lard out of a trans-sexual ‘woman’ in a McDonald’s somewhere? Well, this hardly raised a peep in the Lamestream Media until it was discovered that she/he was a gender changer. Then all hell broke loose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So straight women have been passed by Perverts United and also by blacks. Remember there wasn’t a peep when it was thought that the victim here was an ordinary straight (admittedly white) female, largely because the attackers were victim aristocracy - blacks. And the last US Presidential Election underlined that. Do you think for one instant that, had Obama been white, he’d have got even 20% of the votes that he did? So black trumps female, and it’s likely to stay that way for a long time given their chronic inability to succeed in anything, even to provide basic necessities for themselves, without heavy ongoing white commitment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So who takes the top spot, the kings of victimhood? It’s got to be Muslims. Look, most of the groups I've mentioned do have some claim to victimhood - they’ve all been kept down to one degree or another at some time. But it’s hard to image a less likely collection of victims than violent, intolerant, misogynistic, undemocratic, homophobic, genital mutilating, head and hand cutting, polygamous, child bride-fucking Muslims. They follow the lead of the perfect man "The Prophet" (&lt;em&gt;Peace Be Upon The Fucker - PBUTF&lt;/em&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet they get a free pass on everything. They’re constantly ‘offended’ by everything and anything in Western Civilisation, and we bend over backwards to remove even the perception of such offence. When they hang homosexuals in Iran, or cut the heads off adulterers in Saudi Arabia, or when a young girl becomes an honour killing victim in the west, the chattering classes and the other victim groups are silent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So for those reasons Muzzies get my coveted Top Victim award.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you agree?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-7711481153112284719?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/7711481153112284719/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=7711481153112284719' title='88 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/7711481153112284719'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/7711481153112284719'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/victimhood-hierarchy.html' title='The Victimhood Hierarchy'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>88</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-1720641793526721451</id><published>2011-09-27T18:03:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-09-27T18:12:12.028Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ireland'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Immigration'/><title type='text'>Ireland celebrates diversity.

Well, I've got a solution. Go to Bosnia, change your name to Izebogovic, and return. Tell them you're a refugee. Bingo! You and your family will be placed on the equivalent of an €150,000 p.a. salary, equivalent to €95,000 after tax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's what an as yet unnamed Bosnian family are on at the moment.

We in Cork, the intellectual elite of Ireland, have a fatherly protective attitude to the &lt;strike&gt;sheep shaggers &lt;/strike&gt;people of Tipp, and are happy to acknowledge their rare accomplishments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For this reason I have for a number of years taken an interest in Kevin Carroll, who has made quite a name for himself as a prosthetic limb scientist in the US. A few years back he and a colleague became famous when they accomplished a real scientific breakthrough by developing an artificial tail for a dolphin at a Florida zoo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few months back I learned that a film was going to be made about it. I looked forward to the Tipperary man gaining due, and very rare, recognition for this outstanding achievement. I expected to bathe in the reflected glory of our next door neighbour’s achievement. Then I find out who the Hollywood mind-wreckers have cast as the lead. Morgan Fucking Freeman! And he’s playing a composite part of the two scientists. Obviously one black scientist equals two whites ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Hollywood anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is deliberate mind manipulation. Gullible whites are being programmed to see blacks as noble intelligent beings. Freeman even played God, FFS! I don’t know where he gets the time. If he’s not in a movie in a noble intelligent role he’s narrating a TV shows (scientific programmes!) or else he’s on a talk show. Meanwhile he finds plenty of time to shag his granddaughter. Maybe he is something special after all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile Tipperary reverts back to its customary obscurity. So sad.

you ever seen a queen termite in its hive? A gigantic shapeless lump, attended to by a swarm of comparatively tiny workers. All she does is eat, shit and make baby termites.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step right up folks and see the amazing Dominique Lanoise of Miami, FL, the human queen termite. I was passing through the West Wing of Chateau Savant this evening when my eyes fell on the programme Lady Savant was watching. I stopped in mid-stride, transfixed, horrified. But what’s been seen cannot be unseen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This creature was a mountain of quivering putrid flesh, amounting to 43 stone. The weight of five normal women. Who is she and where did she come from? Well, she says she’s&lt;em&gt; ‘from the islands’&lt;/em&gt;. And which islands would they be? Dominique doesn’t seem to know, and appears surprised that she was even asked. (My guess is Haiti, as she has a kind of French accent).She has approximately &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kvVxPjxS-dE/Tn5NY2kDD6I/AAAAAAAADBY/KHLoKeUrLt4/s1600/Dominique-Lanoise.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 272px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 185px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656043271382831010" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kvVxPjxS-dE/Tn5NY2kDD6I/AAAAAAAADBY/KHLoKeUrLt4/s320/Dominique-Lanoise.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;six daughters but, surprisingly, there’s no sign of the six fathers. How in God’s name were she and her litter allowed into the US? Great decision, whoever made it. Probably another Haitian, employed in the new diverse Immigration Service.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s not be too hard on Dominique, she’s just following the dictates of her Darwinian script and knows nothing else. And so now, presumably at taxpayer expense, she eats, drinks, breeds and defecates, wallowing in the putrescence of her chosen state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which brings me to an interesting question. Now those of you of a delicate disposition, and/or recently finished a meal, avert your gaze from what follows. Ok, for the rest of you I’ll get straight to the point. This creature’s arsehole is buried deep in the recesses of the mound she calls a body. Given the mountains of food she eats she must, like the termite queen, produce an almost constant stream of shit. Given that she can’t move an inch - she can just about raise her hands to her gob - where does all this go?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus, what must its bedroom be like?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now she’s off, courtesy of an all-white white ambulance crew and an all-white medical team to get a horrifically expensive weight-reduction operation. Who picks up the tab?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Such procedures are highly dangerous, the medics tell us. And that, my friends, is the only piece of good news in this whole sorry story.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-4351359146385584234?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/4351359146385584234/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=4351359146385584234' title='58 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4351359146385584234'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4351359146385584234'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/human-queen-termite.html' title='The elephant in the room'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-i7_h0ZjaSr8/Tn5NmwnQjxI/AAAAAAAADBg/B9K6jOiwwzU/s72-c/termite.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>58</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-4532466641847233785</id><published>2011-09-21T21:44:00.004Z</published><updated>2011-09-21T21:49:06.045Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ireland'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Race'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Immigration'/><title type='text'>Ireland's population replacement project coming along nicely</title><content type='html'>40,000 Irish citizens emigrated last year. That’s 1% of the population. But if you assume that the vast majority were aged about 20-35, the proportion of this age cohort emigrating jumps to about 4%. Add in the last few years, and the next few, and you get a sense of what’s happening. Ireland’s future on the wing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And what about the &lt;em&gt;‘tens of thousands of Nigeria’s Igbo tribe’&lt;/em&gt; and Ireland's &lt;em&gt;‘thriving Congolese community’&lt;/em&gt; that I wrote about &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/irelands-tribes.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hOPxzTEeIQQ/Tnpa02nRcAI/AAAAAAAADBQ/u4dQKHROnss/s1600/eimerquinn.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 188px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654932146177011714" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hOPxzTEeIQQ/Tnpa02nRcAI/AAAAAAAADBQ/u4dQKHROnss/s320/eimerquinn.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, you can take it that 100% of them are still roosting here. And why not? Substantial unemployment and child benefit (one Romanian gypsy admitted to getting €420 per week), free education, free health, and whatever you’re having yourself. Anyone who sees these cultural enrichers with swarms of kids roaming our towns and cities can tell that the population replacement project is coming along nicely, thank you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I brood on our Celtic twilight I share with you a piece of music that strikes to the depth of my Celtic soul.

I mused that, had I a few billion to spare I’d unhesitatingly hand it over to him for safe keeping, no questions asked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagine my amazement then when, on reading further, I found that UBS had taken exactly the same view! Smart boys, UBS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh wait! Reading still further it seems that this splendid chap has just lost them billions on the ‘trading’ (i.e. gambling) floor. Surely not. But yes.

Because untold riches and a luxurious trouble-free retirement beckon when your time comes. One of the first of a long line of such luminaries was Richard Burroughs. Having carefully guided Bank of Ireland over the cliff, Dickie, brandishing a massive severance package, and encomiums to his years of ‘service’, immediately landed a plum job as Chairman of BAT (British American Tobacco). If you’ve shares in BAT, sell ‘em now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The latest is Dermot McCarthy, erstwhile top civil servant, Ireland’s own Sir Humphrey. As one ex-colleague bitterly recounted, McCarthy &lt;em&gt;‘was the grand architect of everything that went wrong in this country’&lt;/em&gt;. Indeed he was. Mind you he wasn’t short of company, and some things he did very well. Like in 2005 when, after a series of tense negotiations with himself, he awarded himself and his fellow mandarins an eye-watering 25% pay increase for that one year alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And a very special retirement deal as well, which means that he walks out, at the ripe old age of 57, with a severance package of €700,000 and a lifetime index-linked pension of €150,000. Not bad, huh? And the rest&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pL6Rn_7CUDk/TnOovn8V9wI/AAAAAAAADBA/csj8k2ZmAMk/s1600/lone%2Branger.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 205px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 164px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5653047493409502978" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pL6Rn_7CUDk/TnOovn8V9wI/AAAAAAAADBA/csj8k2ZmAMk/s320/lone%2Branger.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; of the nation-wreckers have received, and will continue to receive, similar ‘compensation’ packages’. A deeply religious and charitable man, nicknamed &lt;em&gt;The Cardinal&lt;/em&gt;, he undoubtedly subscribes to the old aphorism that charity begins at home. And maybe ends there as well, who knows?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the Lone Ranger would say to Tonto, before riding off into the sunset having cleaned up another town &lt;em&gt;‘our work here is done’&lt;/em&gt;. In the case of our other heroes, we can only hope that their work is, in fact, done, and that they'll disappear, as rapidly as possible, into the fading sun, clutching their ill-gotten gains.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Incidentally, have you ever wondered, as I have frequently, about the Lone Ranger’s mask? About as effective as a pair of sunglasses. Whatever about his other qualities, he was no master of disguise.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-878856056404151382?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/878856056404151382/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=878856056404151382' title='28 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/878856056404151382'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/878856056404151382'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/questions-for-you.html' title='Questions for you'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pL6Rn_7CUDk/TnOovn8V9wI/AAAAAAAADBA/csj8k2ZmAMk/s72-c/lone%2Branger.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>28</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-8174061951487150511</id><published>2011-09-14T19:23:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-09-14T19:33:50.298Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>The curious case of Mad Maxdolf’s sudden prosperity</title><content type='html'>A short while ago I asked regular correspondent Franz to explain something about the German economic miracle during the thirties. For very obvious reasons we don't hear too much about that these days!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, here's his report (I don't think he gives his countrymen of the time due credit, but I'll let you be the judge of that).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;A couple of days ago the Savant suggested that I write a piece about the interwar period in Germany. Specifically the astonishing growth that took place between 1933 and 1939. "Dang", I thought. Couldn't my writing debut be about a more inherently crowd-pleasing subject? Puppies? Chicks? Or more in tune with the Savant's site: Chimps? Anyhow, I'll try do deal with it as gracefully as I can. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ladies and gentlemen: I give you the Interceptor!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now what has Mel's car from Road Warrior to do with anything? Bear with me. That beat up looking thing is actually the best analogy for the German economy of 1933. Because under the shabby looking exterior the Interceptor had a 300 hp turbocharged engine complete with nitrous oxide injection. (For mr a: I believe Mel was driving a souped up Ford Falcon XB)&lt;br /&gt;Similarly, the German economy looked terrible when Hitler took power. But under its hood was an almost debt free society. Why? Because the hyperinflation of '23 and the depression a couple of years later had purged most debts from the system. Even the reparation payments stipulated in the Versailles treaty had been abandoned in 1932. A clean slate for everybody.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More importantly, there were millions of superbly educated young men willing to work for pennies. People like the young Wernherr von Braun or Albert Speer came by the dozen and quite cheaply so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How about that for stimulus?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, there were nuisances. Particularly Jewish organizations calling for boycotts of German goods. But on the other hand Germany was THE place to be, much like China in our time. And no anglo-saxon businessman worth his salt wanted to sit still while everybody else was dancing. So the same businessmen who publicly disapproved of Hitler's anti-semitism were glad to do business him in a not so public fashion. IBM, General Motors, Standard Oil. They all had their Zweigstellen in Germany, and all were making buckets full of cash (&lt;a href="http://www.thehiddenevil.com/nazis.asp" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.thehiddenevil.com/nazis.asp&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to Hitler at the Interceptor's wheel: It didn't take him long to realize what a superb vehicle it was. Ever the gambler he launched huge rearmament and public work programs, incurred huge debts and wagered that Germany would win the next war and make the rest of Europe pay for the privilege of being conquered. When Hjalmar Schacht - chief of the central Reichsbank and slayer of the '23 hyperinflation - finally realized what was going on, he quit his job in disgust.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was in 1937.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For two more years accounting shams like the famous Mefo-bills (&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mefo_bill" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mefo_bill&lt;/a&gt;) afforded Hitler the chance to stoke arms manufacturing to his heart's content. Two years later, the cylinders of the Interceptor's engine were close to galling. For Germany in 1939, it was literally: "To Warsaw, Paris and Moscow or bust!" Afterwards, a centrally planned war economy helped to camouflage the catastrophic economic situation of the Reich until the red army auditors moved into Berlin with T-34s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any lessons in all that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During his last days in the bunker Mad Maxdolf probably realized that you may own an Interceptor, but that in itself doesn't guarantee you to leave the thunderdome in one piece.&lt;br /&gt;What else? Maybe the realization how little impact the outside world and its various boycotts had on Germany's economy. Our country was following its own triumpahnt-tragic-trajectory and the shrieks of the World Jewish Congress didn't dent that trajectory one bit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite the rethoric there were legions of money cockroaches that competed for Adolf's business. Iceland learned a similar lesson since 2008. Granted, they didn't commit the ultimate sin of overt anti-semitism. They only stiffed some bankstas, which only amounts to second degree anti-semitism. Anyhow: When they kicked the bankers in the shin, all establishment economists predicted that Iceland would become a pariah state, perenially on the brink of starvation, the North Korea of - well - the north.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It appears however that rumors of their demise were somewhat exaggerated. Quite to the contrary: Their little island seems to contain a healthy, strong-willed and productive people. While no heavy Interceptor, this tiny nation can definitly boast of Porsche-Boxter status. Short of invading Norway, there seems to be little chance of derailing their success story at this point. (&lt;a href="http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/danielhannan/100083764/iceland-was-right-not-to-bail-out-its-banks-if-only-we-had-done-the-same/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/danielhannan/100083764/iceland-was-right-not-to-bail-out-its-banks-if-only-we-had-done-the-same/&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Within the European Union a similar thing will probably occur fairly quickly. A country like Austria (&lt;a href="http://www.wsws.org/articles/2011/jun2011/aust-j09.shtml" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.wsws.org/articles/2011/jun2011/aust-j09.shtml&lt;/a&gt;) or Finnland will elect a right wing government and our overlords will proclaim that the world is coming to an end and demand the heftiest sanctions. But then the sun will rise and shine over Austria and Finnland as it had before. On a populace both more prosperous and free for escaping the commissariat of Brussels. I for one will consume several bottles of champagne that day and marvel at our overlords exposed for the paper tigers they are and have been for a long time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One more thing: The following clip is from “Road Warrior”. When it was made, the film was intended to portray an dystopian end-of-days scenario. But doesn’t it look rather idyllic compared to the footage coming out of London not so long ago? Just a thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hUrcGCQV1g&amp;amp;feature=related" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hUrcGCQV1g&amp;amp;feature=related&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-8174061951487150511?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/8174061951487150511/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=8174061951487150511' title='35 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8174061951487150511'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8174061951487150511'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/curious-case-of-mad-maxdolfs-sudden.html' title='The curious case of Mad Maxdolf’s sudden prosperity'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>35</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-8190606033449763899</id><published>2011-09-11T14:39:00.004Z</published><updated>2011-09-11T14:55:44.725Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><title type='text'>A very lumpy carpet</title><content type='html'>Observe that large and lumpy carpet. Beneath it rest all explanations for the 9/11 attacks other than the Official Cover-up version. I’ve made it my business over the last week or so to scour the MSM for references to such alternatives. In vain. The cover-up has been total. It's a non-issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I’m not just talking about the typical lamestream media that we’ve all come to know and hate, the BBCs, CNNs, &lt;em&gt;New York Times&lt;/em&gt; of this world. I’m also referring to supposedly independent sources, or at least those hostile to the Neocons and Israelis such as Russia Today and even Al Jazeera. Nothing. Nada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What about the ultimate expose of the 9/11 Commission’s inadequacies, &lt;em&gt;The Eleventh Day&lt;/em&gt;? I’ve repeatedly heard about this &lt;em&gt;‘exhaustive study’&lt;/em&gt; always mentioning the &lt;em&gt;‘600 pages of detailed research’&lt;/em&gt; which&lt;em&gt; ‘leaves no stone unturned'&lt;/em&gt;. I’ve heard one of the authors interviewed, and she went out of her way to belittle the official version.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But what were the alternative explanations? Ah well, like, the FBI and CIA and so on didn’t co-ordinate properly, plus a few more anodyne platitudes. All the unanswerable questions, some of which I raised &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2010/09/can-anyone-explain.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, remain unanswered. That's not correct. &lt;u&gt;They weren’t even asked in the first place&lt;/u&gt;. Take, for example Larry Silverstein, the guy who admitted to talking down Building 7, before hastily withdrawing the admission. He has o&lt;u&gt;ne entry in the Index&lt;/u&gt;. By way of contrast, many of the minor ‘hijackers’ get scores of entries. Nothing to see here, everybody move along now. This is incredibly effective. A supposed &lt;em&gt;tour de force&lt;/em&gt; classed as the ultimate expose, throwing a few scraps to the mob but keeping the real plot hidden.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’m just open-mouthed in my admiration for the span and depth of &lt;em&gt;Their&lt;/em&gt; control. &lt;em&gt;They&lt;/em&gt; have defined the narrative, and even more amazingly have defined that which cannot be mentioned. Everyone across the world duly steps into line. Far from the plot unravelling, it seems it’s going to become a moot issue. Amazing and frightening. And it shows what we’re up against.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boy, oh boy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, a question. Who knows what? Surely GW Bush wouldn't condone such a thing, bad and all as the fucker is? Cheney might. But what about all the others at the top of the US power structure, the 'think tanks' and the 'investigative journalists? They must be - &lt;u&gt;have to be &lt;/u&gt;- aware of all the evidence that screams of Israeli involvement. Surely they cannot be so cynical as to knowingly go along with this charade?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or can they?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-8190606033449763899?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/8190606033449763899/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=8190606033449763899' title='108 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8190606033449763899'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8190606033449763899'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/very-lumpy-carpet.html' title='A very lumpy carpet'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>108</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-4010873691398983745</id><published>2011-09-09T14:07:00.006Z</published><updated>2011-09-09T14:22:08.162Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ireland'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Immigration'/><title type='text'>Ireland's tribes</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-G5SZSMRsVcs/Tmof88UB3KI/AAAAAAAADA4/-Et1thXS_Uw/s1600/black%2Bmob1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 266px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 184px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650363814332456098" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-G5SZSMRsVcs/Tmof88UB3KI/AAAAAAAADA4/-Et1thXS_Uw/s320/black%2Bmob1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; A recent article in the weekend section of the Irish Times gushed &lt;em&gt;‘there are tens of thousands of Nigeria’s Igbo tribe in Ireland’&lt;/em&gt;. As well as ‘&lt;em&gt;a thriving Congolese community’&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reflect on that for a few moments, and then join me as I head to Limerick in search of some other savage tribes, this time of the Irish variety. Now about 18 months ago I wrote about a €1.5 billion ‘regeneration project’ for the ‘deprived areas’ of that city. As I said in &lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2010/02/regenerating-limerick.html"&gt;that post&lt;/a&gt;, deprived means that &lt;em&gt;“they’re infested with criminal gangs, violent anti-social behaviour is rife, disputes between ‘neighbours’ are often resolved by way of arson or murder. The police run scared. In effect, society there has broken down, despite the presence of many decent families.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now the solution was a brave one. Essentially to knock down the existing housing stock and put the criminal gangs, a&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xSxW_0kIij4/TmofwIfbemI/AAAAAAAADAw/YZ-wDnHruz4/s1600/limerickgang.png"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 272px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 185px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650363594263198306" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xSxW_0kIij4/TmofwIfbemI/AAAAAAAADAw/YZ-wDnHruz4/s320/limerickgang.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;rsonists and murderers into new houses. At which point they’d overnight become model citizens, staying in every evening to enjoy a warm cocoa before heading to bed at ten - prepared for another day of hard but honest work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What could go wrong? After all, a sociology professor came up with the idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well sadly, and amazingly, the new houses didn’t have the expected impact. According to the &lt;em&gt;Sunday Independent&lt;/em&gt;, “&lt;em&gt;the attacks, fire-bombings and threats continue, resulting in terrified families fleeing their neighbourhoods.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who could have imagined?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our tax Euros at work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I'll leave you with a cultural quiz on Limerick:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Q: What does a Limerick girl use as protection during sex?&lt;br /&gt;A: A bus shelter&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Q:What do you call a 30 year old Limerick girl?&lt;br /&gt;A: Granny&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Q: What do you call a Limerick girl in a white tracksuit?&lt;br /&gt;A: The bride&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Q: What's the first question on a Limerick quiz night?&lt;br /&gt;A: What the fuck you lookin' at?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-4010873691398983745?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/4010873691398983745/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=4010873691398983745' title='54 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4010873691398983745'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4010873691398983745'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/irelands-tribes.html' title='Ireland&apos;s tribes'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-G5SZSMRsVcs/Tmof88UB3KI/AAAAAAAADA4/-Et1thXS_Uw/s72-c/black%2Bmob1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>54</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-8482624280964031232</id><published>2011-09-08T20:14:00.004Z</published><updated>2011-09-08T20:25:28.843Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Race'/><title type='text'>Observations</title><content type='html'>Watched an old recording of the 2002 US Open final between Agassi and Sampras (the current event was washed out for two days).

The issue is simple. They did what travellers regularly do: Buy green belt land for a song, then begin gradually building on it. When the local authority protests they (the travellers) use the law and their carefully cultivated state of victimhood to procrastinate, all the time extending their domain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, it seems for o&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ApQKlmeQDJI/TmYFuMRJ1II/AAAAAAAADAo/6LUmu_FX7wI/s1600/article-2018550-0D29431800000578-107_468x297.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 277px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 175px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649209073708160130" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ApQKlmeQDJI/TmYFuMRJ1II/AAAAAAAADAo/6LUmu_FX7wI/s320/article-2018550-0D29431800000578-107_468x297.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;nce the authorities aren’t going to be intimidated by threats of violence or cries of racism. And yes, these red-haired, freckly skinned, blue-eyed travellers are apparently a different race to the British. Mind you, the way Britain is going, such people &lt;u&gt;will eventually be&lt;/u&gt; a minority race in a sea of brown and black.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On this latter point I laughed out loud at that batty old hag Vanessa Redgrave. She described the knackers as &lt;em&gt;‘this strong, wise and gentle community’&lt;/em&gt;. Now I could pick out every single adjective in the full Oxford Dictionary and the very last one I’d apply to travellers is &lt;em&gt;‘gentle’&lt;/em&gt;. Oh boy! Gentle they are &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;NOT&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Jesus, how divorced from reality can you get?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway, I wish Basildon Council well. Ignore cries of racism, discrimination, the conveniently ill granny who’ll be shunted out in front of the cameras at eviction time, and apply the law. Just as you would to a law-abiding Englishman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On reflection, Irish travellers and blacks share several key defining characteristics:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() The belief that the law does not apply to them, and any enforcement represents discrimination&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() High levels of dishonesty&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Astonishing levels of violence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() See living off welfare as the natural and fair order of things&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() Whenever they arrive in a locality there’s an immediate increase in robberies and violence, while filth and litter proliferate&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;() If they stay, normal law-abiding citizens move out&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So good luck to Basildon Council.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-1016760103110780460?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/1016760103110780460/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=1016760103110780460' title='74 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1016760103110780460'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1016760103110780460'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/go-basildon.html' title='Go, Basildon!'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ApQKlmeQDJI/TmYFuMRJ1II/AAAAAAAADAo/6LUmu_FX7wI/s72-c/article-2018550-0D29431800000578-107_468x297.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>74</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-8215595055227126756</id><published>2011-09-04T20:03:00.008Z</published><updated>2011-09-04T20:18:38.827Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Will September see the volcano blow?</title><content type='html'>Will September be the month when the wheels finally come off the European economy? I'm not an expert or a ‘professional’ – which means my take is likely to be highly accurate. As it has been in the past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here’s my scenario:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eoYIfg8pSXo/TmPZ3q0qv8I/AAAAAAAADAg/64stBC6e99k/s1600/economy.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 287px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 189px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648597908063961026" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eoYIfg8pSXo/TmPZ3q0qv8I/AAAAAAAADAg/64stBC6e99k/s320/economy.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(1) Greece defaults, having resolutely refused to mend its spendthrift tax-dodging ways&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(2) The only people with money, the productive Northern European Protestants, refuse, due to voter revolt, to bail them out again&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(3) The banks exposed to Greek sovereign debt will now in turn become insolvent – obviously not all at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(4) As soon as one does they all stop lending to one another, precipitating a freezing up of liquidity in the real economy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(5) Enter the Northern Prods again. They’re now faced with a decision similar to, but not the same as, that faced earlier. This time the question is: Will they allow the ECB to send the printing presses into overdrive, and/or will they agree to pick up the tab for Eurobonds?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(6a) If they do, and assuming their citizens don’t reach for the pitchforks and torches, the death spiral will be countered, but at huge and grossly unfair cost to these countries. An unwelcome byproduct will be a huge surge in Eurozone inflation and eventually massively tighter political and fiscal centralisation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(6b) If they don’t agree to pony up, then the whole banking system freezes up, literally leading to the ATMs not producing. At which stage we’re all fucked, at least for a while.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few possible peripheral outcomes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1: The ensuing disaster might lead to the end of fractional reserve banking, and, assuming there's a just God, with central bankers all over the world swinging from lamp-posts&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2: The Chinese, with their oceans of foreign reserves, might decide to get involved to save their biggest market. Or they might take the opportunity to kick us while we’re down and get up to some of those nefarious things so beloved of Johnny Foreigner&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is my take correct?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-8215595055227126756?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/8215595055227126756/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=8215595055227126756' title='33 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8215595055227126756'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8215595055227126756'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/will-september-see-volcano-blow.html' title='Will September see the volcano blow?'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eoYIfg8pSXo/TmPZ3q0qv8I/AAAAAAAADAg/64stBC6e99k/s72-c/economy.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>33</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-1565438552567592538</id><published>2011-09-03T20:02:00.002Z</published><updated>2011-09-03T20:05:44.897Z</updated><title type='text'>Surprising. Or is it?</title><content type='html'>Had a long chat with a Croatian friend this week. This guy is at the head of a large Croatian company of about 500 employees. Super-intelligent and well read, he’s done extremely well in the post-Yugoslavia environment. Yet he hankers back to Communist days. Why would this successful capitalist do that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The pace of life was much gentler, less pressure, everyone had a safe job, nobody was paid that much more than anyone else. Sure, our standards were lower than in the west, and really talented people could become frustrated. But we produced all our own food and most other consumable stuff, including even cars and ships, and we took pride in that, even if they were of comparatively lower quality. We had none of the Chinese-style junk we see today. We didn’t bloody well need it then and we don’t today. Small mom and pop businesses were allowed and they all made comfortable unpressurised livings. Everyone was Croatian, most people stayed around the same place all their lives - some in the same house all their lives.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Compared to now it was dull and lacking in challenges. But I think people lived better. Now people worry about their jobs all the time, competitive challenges are always over your shoulder, foreigners are flooding in and buying up properties and we’re increasingly pressurised to take in refugees. Our local produce, and the shops that sold them, are disappearing, replaced by international brands. Now we make nothing ourselves – we’re just bit suppliers in a global supply chain. The sense of place, unity, security and predictability is gone.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suggested to him that globalisation, not capitalism, was the real culprit for this malaise. Still, it’s surprising, isn’t it, that a successful capitalist would evince nostalgia for such an environment? I believe his feelings represent also those of many of us in the west who never experienced life under Communism. Before globalisation took hold we too had a sense of unity, place, security, and a belief in who we were. That’s been largely swept away by the tide of diversity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-1565438552567592538?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/1565438552567592538/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=1565438552567592538' title='33 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1565438552567592538'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1565438552567592538'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/surprising-or-is-it.html' title='Surprising.

Mainly American MSM I might add, as I feel certain that white racial awakening, if it is to come, will be manifested there first. I have little interest in the 'journalism', as we all know that this is just lies, evasions and sheer propaganda. We also know of course, and I've posted on this elsewhere, that the MSM heavily edit or delete comments that stray too far off the PC Reservation, and in desperation, will peremptorily close down the comment facility when the readership becomes sufficiently riled up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I have discerned a clear and distinct trend, month after month, whereby the ordinary reader is becoming more and more vocal in calling out the prevailing orthodoxies. Be it mahogany mob violence, AA, impact of blacks on schools, or whatever, they seem to have shed their reticence. Quite honestly, 'liberals' are hard to find on any thread. The increasingly irrelevent &lt;em&gt;Huffington Post&lt;/em&gt; is a bit of an exception, but most MSM outlets seem to totally out of synch with their readers' views. And the readers are less and less intimidated by the requirements of PC-speak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A small and unscientific piece of research, I'll admit, but it convinces me that the spirit of Oden is already stirring and growing stronger in the breasts of all our people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-1629524712295456083?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/1629524712295456083/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=1629524712295456083' title='51 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1629524712295456083'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/1629524712295456083'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/09/big-change-is-happening.html' title='A big change is happening'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>51</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-4534995395100391668</id><published>2011-08-30T21:06:00.002Z</published><updated>2011-08-30T21:12:08.231Z</updated><title type='text'>Input</title><content type='html'>I just published a pic of Marchin' Looter King from the IrateIrishman blog.

Who among us hasn’t lain awake at night, bathed in sweat, tortured by the thought that the population of the Congo might be in terminal decline? Their rich civilisation destroyed, an end to the stream of refugees who have so enriched our own societies. The very thought of which is just unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What would have driven your fears? Well as you know, things have been a bit dodgy in the Congo since they achieved ‘independence' there. According to Wikipedia, the earliest inhabitants of the Congo, were generally hunter-gatherers who lived in the forests. Strangely enough, they don’t point out that, eh, the &lt;u&gt;current&lt;/u&gt; inhabitants of the Congo are also hunter-gatherers who also live in the forests. Anyway, despite a population which is apparently&lt;em&gt; ‘friendly, hard-working and resilient’&lt;/em&gt; they haven’t exactly done a South Korea in terms of progress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact the whole country has been one seething mass of fighting and warfare since ‘independence’. Which is surprising given how friendly the people are supposed to be. And this brings me to the nub of my story. Unimaginable numbers have succumbed to either direct killing or starvation. According to &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/7202384.stm"&gt;the Beeb &lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;‘The International Rescue Committee says 45,000 people are dying every month in the central African state - a total of 5.4 million dead over the past decade."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And it’s not just the number of deaths, but also the&lt;a href="http://www.alternet.org/reproductivejustice/125612/the_atrocities_committed_against_women_and_girls_in_the_congo_defy_imagination/"&gt; nature of the atrocities.&lt;/a&gt; &lt;em&gt;"The disturbing stories that have come out of the Congo defy imagination: women and young girls being raped by militia men in front of their families; rape victims ranging from as young as six months to as old as 83 years; women and girls faced with unwanted pregnancies and raped intentionally by men known to have AIDS. Says Dr. Sese Mukwege, (who was awarded the UN Human Rights Prize in December 2008 for his humanitarian work), “attacking women, the bearer of life, with this level of terror, I believe it has nothing to do with sexual desire. I think it’s about destabilizing society, trying to destroy society and bring about its complete destruction."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s bad, but the good news is: Despite this incredible death toll, the country’s population continues to increase. Despite being raped, starved and beaten, these ‘resilient’ Congolese women continue to breed at a rate that’d put any self-respecting rabbit to shame. Why would this be? Maybe they want lots of kids to share in the delights of Congolese living? Or maybe, despite all the problems, could it be that there’s never a shortage of food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes indeed. The country’s staple diet (pygmies and children) are still in plentiful supply. This from Australia’s &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.theage.com.au/news/World/Cannibalism-shock-as-Congo-atrocities-revealed/2005/03/17/1110913734387.html"&gt;The Age&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;‘Militiamen grilled bodies on a spit and boiled two girls alive as their mother watched, UN peacekeepers have charged. The report said: "In one corner, there was already cooked flesh from bodies and two bodies being grilled on a barbecue and, at the same time, they prepared her two little girls, putting them alive in two big pots filled with boiling water and oil."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not everybody’s cup of tea, but I suppose needs must. The only problem on the horizon is that the supply of pygmies, that favourite of the sophisticated Congolese palate, is beginning to tighten. Lightly roasted female pygmy beats shank of missionary any day, apparently, and just as with the roe of the sturgeon, demand now exceeds supply. But the important point is, &lt;u&gt;we are not about to run out of Congolese.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, sarcasm off. Seriously, what sort of a species are the so-called humans who infest that ‘country’? (What I've listed above only skims the surface of the atrocities. A simple Google search will reveal the extent of the unimaginable atrocities that the people there visit on one another there –where Conrad called the &lt;em&gt;Heart Of Darkness&lt;/em&gt;). Yet we allow vast numbers of them immigrate to the west. Apparently there's a ‘thriving’ Congolese community in Ireland.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear God - do we really expect such people to change their nature if we give them a house, schooling and other forms of welfare? Under a thin veneer of civilisation, they’re still the same people. And they will be for generations to come. As the Chinese, Japs and Arabs crack up laughing at our stupidity and gullibily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-4411235279664488853?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/4411235279664488853/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=4411235279664488853' title='38 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4411235279664488853'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4411235279664488853'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/08/i-bring-you-tidings-of-joy.html' title='I bring you tidings of joy!'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>38</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-2115401045612428932</id><published>2011-08-27T21:27:00.004Z</published><updated>2011-08-27T21:43:50.328Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Race'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Immigration'/><title type='text'>Can they really believe this?</title><content type='html'>Not a very original post today I'm afraid. It concerns the recent Brookings Institute study which confirms what we all know – that white babies are now a minority in the USA. I've been perusing the MSM and liberal blogs for a reaction. Not surprisingly it’s overwhelmingly positive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I ask myself can these people be for real. Gentle reader, I really do ask myself that question. Do they really believe that when the majority is composed of blacks and Latinos that the USA will remain the same kind of country it has always been ? Can they really believe that races who created failed, and in some cases dystopian societies will magically transform their nature, capabilities and ingrained cultures to become what we know as Americans?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s not as if they’re short of in-your-face evidence as to what’s likely to happen (despite the machinations of the MSM). Blacks are simply Africans transposed to America, as Detroit, Camden, East St. Louis, Gary and dozens of other cities and towns will testify. They’ll see it in their own black neighbourhoods, if they’re unlucky enough to live near one. They're Africa on steroids.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Latinos? Here’s what I said after a visit to California a few years ago:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2009/08/california-tumbles-into-sea.html"&gt;http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2009/08/california-tumbles-into-sea.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Whole regions of Southern California now look and sound like Mexico. Latinos everywhere, Spanish the prevailing language, while garbage litters the streets. Squads of seemingly feral children swarm all over the place, the cars are rattle-traps, while begging and panhandling are rife. One writer described it thus: &lt;em&gt;“My neighbourhood has turned into a barrio, with bars on doors and windows, abandoned shopping carts, old sofas and junky cars strewn everywhere, graffiti, rude, surly people, chickens in yards, Mexican music blasting all night, ridiculously long waits in emergency rooms full of illegals, overcrowded, dangerous and ineffective schools, auto accidents caused by uninsured illegals.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And who do they think is going to pay for all the black and Latino welfare (and thereby what passes for peace in their respective ‘communities’ today), once the productive white taxpayer becomes a minority, and a decreasing one at that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know, this is so blindingly obvious to me, sitting in an isolated small town in an isolated small country thousands of miles from the US, that I find it hard to credit that reasonably intelligent Americans don’t see it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But if my readings over the last few hours are anything to go by, they don’t.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-2115401045612428932?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/2115401045612428932/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=2115401045612428932' title='67 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/2115401045612428932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/2115401045612428932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/08/can-they-really-believe-this.html' title='Can they really believe this?'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>67</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-4202830877396528764</id><published>2011-08-25T12:38:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-08-25T12:48:37.174Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Africa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Race'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='South Africa'/><title type='text'>Et tu, Tutu?</title><content type='html'>Archbishop Desmond Tutu used to drive my late, much-lamented mother into a state of incandescent, quivering, foaming-mouthed fury every time he’d appear on TV. I’m not sure why he in particular elicited such a response. She probably felt outraged at the very idea of a black being an archbishop, his lecturing of whites adding to the outrage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite this I always felt the little guy was a step above the rest of the ANC crooks and murderers currently looting South Africa’s resources. Until recently, when the bish called for a special tax. On whites only. This apparently would &lt;em&gt;“help tackle the country’s grinding poverty and support reconciliation among its racial groups.”&lt;/em&gt; Sooooooo…..extracting even more mulah from the beleaguered whites w&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S_KA1uOqfM0/TlZCiXAhzZI/AAAAAAAADAQ/mdQnYDruB6E/s1600/tutu.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 263px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 262px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5644772341014711698" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S_KA1uOqfM0/TlZCiXAhzZI/AAAAAAAADAQ/mdQnYDruB6E/s320/tutu.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ill make them feel better towards their tormentors? Must say, I seem to be missing something here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He went on to say that &lt;em&gt;“white South Africans had failed to acknowledge the magnanimity of the country’s blacks since the end of apartheid”.&lt;/em&gt; Maybe they have. But at least 4,000 of them are not in a position to express their appreciation, having been brutally murdered on their farms since the Rainbow Nation was established.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And whites have ‘&lt;em&gt;benefitted disproportionally’&lt;/em&gt; from apartheid. From this are we to assume that, were whites never to have landed in SA there’d still be a First World country, with world-class infrastructure, universities and corporations? Maybe, or would it be more like the Congo, or Zimbabwe, or in fact anywhere in blacks Africa?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where white guilt is the subject, you can always rely on some renegade white careerist to jump at an opportunity. Enter, stage left, Constitutional Court law expert Pierre de Vos. Licking his lips at this new-found opportunity to grovel before his new masters, he informs us &lt;em&gt;“If I had been born black and poor, I almost certainly would not have gone to university and I would almost certainly never have been a law professor at UCT (University of Cape Town), earning quite a nice salary, thank you.” &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, may be Prof, may be. But how then did Tutu himself, Nelson Mandela and many other of the ANC regime get their education in apartheid SA? They were poor and black, weren't they? They were even hostile to the regime, weren't they? Yet they all attended state universities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Strange, no?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a more serious side to all of this. It marks another, if unlikely, phase in setting the stage for total white dispossession. Violent illiterate thug Julius Malema, head of the ANC ‘Youth’ wing, has been making murderous threats against the white population for years and demanding total expropriation. With little or no sanction from his superiors. He spends a lot of time in Zimbabwe with Uncle Bob Mugabe, learning the finer points of this objective. Let’s just hope if and when the war begins, the likes of Pierre de Vos will be among the first to proudly sport their rubber necklaces.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-4202830877396528764?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/4202830877396528764/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=4202830877396528764' title='54 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4202830877396528764'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/4202830877396528764'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/08/et-tu-tutu.html' title='Et tu, Tutu?'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S_KA1uOqfM0/TlZCiXAhzZI/AAAAAAAADAQ/mdQnYDruB6E/s72-c/tutu.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>54</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-8269205722432887762</id><published>2011-08-24T19:34:00.001Z</published><updated>2011-08-24T19:35:39.281Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Hang cool</title><content type='html'>Don’t know if you ever look up these doomsday scenario websites that proliferate on the web. Don’t get me wrong, I think their basic premise is correct, that we, well the USA specifically, is/are headed for an economic apocalypse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However I feel they’re wrong in relation to its suddenness.&lt;em&gt; ‘The day the EBT cards don’t work’, ‘the day Social Security cheques don’t arrive’, ‘the day the dollar ceases to be a reserve currency’&lt;/em&gt;. It’s all about ‘the day’. But I can’t see that happening, not in America anyway. For the simple reason that the Fed can just keep printing dollars to pay the cheques and keep the EBT cards delivering. Needless to say, this will lead to an accelerated and ever-increasing decline in the dollar’s value.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This in turn will almost certainly lead eventually to the dollar losing its reserve currency status. But even here it’s not going to be an overnight thing. In my opinion, and maybe some of the finance wizards who adorn the comments section of this blog will correct me, but the status is not a binary on/off thing, rather something that will fall into disuse as the underlying currency is debased.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So maybe those of you stacking your cave in Montana with dried foods and gunpowder can take some time out for a bit of R&amp;amp;R.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-8269205722432887762?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/8269205722432887762/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=8269205722432887762' title='27 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8269205722432887762'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8269205722432887762'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/08/hang-cool.html' title='Hang cool'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>27</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-291092507531330520</id><published>2011-08-20T23:01:00.003Z</published><updated>2011-08-20T23:08:08.708Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='israel'/><title type='text'>“The best lack all conviction........."</title><content type='html'>&lt;em&gt;“The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The words of WB Yeats spring to mind whenever I contemplate the latest batch of American Presidential hopefuls. How - in God’s name - can a nation that provides the cream of the world’s technical, scientific, literary, economic, entertainment and entrepreneurial talent toss up such a melange of dross, year after year?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Corrupt bought-and-paid-for clones, or sock puppets like Obama, or know-nothing failures like GW Bush or Sarah Palin. People you wouldn’t vote in as the town’s dog-catcher get to finger the nuclear button. Look at the collection lining up for next year’s contest. Worthless nobodies, without exception.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, with one exception actually.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ron Paul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Profound knowledge, education and wisdom. Searing intellect. Been proven right again and again. Most definitely not in the corporate pocket, or that of any other lobby. He believes the corrupt racket that is the Federal Reserve should be closed down or trammelled. He refuses to go for the weasel words of evasion and spin. He even straddles the Third Rail by opposing the insane policy of near-bankrupt America transferring billions of dollars every year to Israel. He points out the obvious (obvious to everyone other than the Israel Firsters in Congress) that Iran poses no danger whatsoever to the US, which should under no circumstances even consider a war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything he says and does resonates of wisdom, sensibility and truth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Surely it’s one of life’s mysteries that, despite this, he gets virtually no mainstream coverage? And if he occasionally does it’s to dismiss him as a frivolous eccentric? In fact it’s no mystery at all. It's not despite, but &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;because of &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;his qualities that he gets this treatment. Or non-treatment. An honest, super-intelligent America-Firster? &lt;strong&gt;DANGEROUS!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But now one of the MSM has broken ranks. Jon Stewart has devoted a major part of one show to expose this particular scandal. Be interesting to see how it runs from here on in. Maybe Dr. Paul does have a chance after all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And may I here reiterate a point I've made on a number of occasions. Stewart is Jewish. A Jewish guy has blown the gaff, not a pseudo patriot of the O’Reilly or Limbaugh ilk. My point? Don’t tar all Jews with the same brush.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-291092507531330520?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/291092507531330520/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=291092507531330520' title='114 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/291092507531330520'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/291092507531330520'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/08/best-lack-all-conviction.html' title='“The best lack all conviction.........&quot;'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>114</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147334142609503958.post-8169690557999554826</id><published>2011-08-19T22:54:00.007Z</published><updated>2011-08-19T23:07:42.485Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Race'/><title type='text'>A joy to behold</title><content type='html'>According the Joe Biden's press office &lt;em&gt;"The team's two-week visit to China reflects an ongoing push to expand people-to-people exchanges between our two countries, as well as an effort to strengthen the US-China relationship through sport"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joe has a deserved reputation for screwing things up. SO no surprise then that he picks a team of ghetto thugs from DC to "strengthen the US-China relationship through sport". With predictable results.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x4l3kWWYOEo/Tk7qAUAaLbI/AAAAAAAADAI/iLove1y447s/s1600/CHINA_114619--525x350.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 290px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 189px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5642704674233134514" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x4l3kWWYOEo/Tk7qAUAaLbI/AAAAAAAADAI/iLove1y447s/s320/CHINA_114619--525x350.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Anyone with the remotest knowledge of the Chinese people – which obviously excludes Joe and his team of expert advisors – knows that they hate and despise blacks. In fact even I have been a bit embarrassed at the way they talked about them to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can just imagine when the Chinese basketball team ran onto the court and found the ‘American’ team to be made up entirely of the despised ones. Things were niggly (ahem) from early on, apparently, and boiled over when one the Georgetown players kicked a chink. Cue for the locals to explode into action and administer a good whacking to the thugs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I'm not saying who’s to blame for the fracas. I have two points really. First, as I said, how daft was it to send a team of blacks to China to foster sporting relations? The second was the way the thugs responded. It seems to me that a group of non-blacks fighting back, vigorously, took them completely by surprise. They were too used to 5:1 odds in beating up defenseless whites back home without retaliation. They ended up fleeing the arena without even finishing the game (or the fight).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can’t wait for the day the Chinese take over Africa. The locals will pray for whitey’s return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sit back and enjoy the video &lt;a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/college/basketball/georgetown_basketball_players_brawl_xzUWDUAfDbWbAdu4UCjobK"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;here.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Site feed&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2147334142609503958-8169690557999554826?l=irishsavant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/feeds/8169690557999554826/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2147334142609503958&amp;postID=8169690557999554826' title='51 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8169690557999554826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2147334142609503958/posts/default/8169690557999554826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irishsavant.blogspot.com/2011/08/joy-to-behold.html' title='A joy to behold'/><author><name>SAVANT</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10499147161250789440</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x4l3kWWYOEo/Tk7qAUAaLbI/AAAAAAAADAI/iLove1y447s/s72-c/CHINA_114619--525x350.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>51</thr:total></entry></feed>
