It was my mother’s 86th birthday the other day. I’ve spent the weekend having quiet thoughts of gratitude about her.

I just heard Giorgia Meloni, the Italian PM say something profound & beautiful …

SECRETARY RUBIO: "This is a distinctive and unique evil. It has always been driven by a hatred, above all else, for civilization itself."

It’s going unnoticed because so much other news is happening, but the war drums are beating again in D.C. The warmongers worry this is their last chance to get the white whale they’ve been chasing for thirty years, an all-out regime change war against Iran.

A new Middle East war would be a catastrophic mistake. Our military stockpiles are depleted from three years of backing Ukraine. Our effort to reshore manufacturing has only just begun and will take years to bear fruit. War would worsen our already immense deficit and national debt. Iran is larger than Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan combined. A war would not be easy and could easily become a calamity.

Thanks to President Trump’s restraint during his first term, America has a golden opportunity to pull away from Middle East quagmires for good. We shouldn’t throw that opportunity away so that sone D.C. has-beens can feel tough by sending young Americans to die yet again.

Christ is risen from the dead, and with him, we too rise to new life! This Easter proclamation embraces the mystery of our lives and the destiny of history, reaching us even in the depths of death. #Easter

[Papa Leone XIV @Pontifex_it]

Cristo è risorto dalla morte e, con Lui, anche noi risorgiamo a vita nuova! Questo annuncio pasquale abbraccia il mistero della nostra vita e il destino della storia e ci raggiunge fin dentro gli abissi della morte. #Pasqua

No Christians! No Dogs! No Goyim!
Christian family physically refused entry to Tel Aviv air raid shelter in Israel during Iranian missile attack and told by door-keeper he didn't want contaminated by Goyim.

For such a crime, Rome overthrew a king.

For such a crime, Boudicca burnt a city.

For such a crime, Spain killed the victim.

An elderly woman in Canada was euthanized only hours after telling doctors she wanted to live and receive hospice care instead.

She had become very ill after heart surgery and was being cared for at home by her elderly husband, who doctors noted was experiencing “caregiver burnout.”

According to an official review, the woman told one assessor she wanted to withdraw her request for assisted death, citing “personal and religious values,” and asked for hospice care instead.

Her hospice placement was quickly denied, and her husband requested an “urgent” reassessment for assisted dying, saying he could no longer cope with caring for her.

She was euthanized that same evening.

Reviewers later said the short timeline failed to properly examine her true wishes, with the case raising serious questions about Canada’s approach to euthanasia.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Some audiobook recommendations:

The Story of Civilization by Durant
Iliad (Penguin Edition)
The Road to Serfdom by Hayek
American Caesar by Manchester
Masters of Doom by Kushner
The Wages of Destruction by Tooze
The Storm of Steel by Junger
The Guns of August by Tuchman
The Gallic Wars by Caesar
Twelve Against the Gods by Bolitho
Genghis Khan by Weatherford

The first one on the list will take a while to get through, but is very much worthwhile.

Admittedly, this is a list that appeals to those who think about Rome every day.

I hope someone makes an audiobook of The Encyclopedia of Military History by Dupuy and The Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World by Creasy.

Generally speaking funerals mark the beginning of civilization, because the human dimension separates itself from the purely animal sphere in the consideration of death. Vice versa, when death poses no question, and funerals reduce to grief management sessions, civilization ends.

quello che facciamo in vita

[G. K. Chesterton @GKCdaily]

Abortion is the Antichrist's demonic parody of the Eucharist. That's why it uses the same holy words, "This is my body," with the blasphemously opposite meaning.
