Our countries are being invaded by #Islam again, a totalitarian ideology of hatred, violence, intolerance and antisemitism.

We have stopped Islam in Europe before, in Poitiers (732), Granada (1492), Lepanto (1571), and Vienna (1683).

We must stop it again now!

Islam poses an existential threat to our freedom and the future of our children.

We must close our borders, start mass deportations of illegals and begin the forced remigration of criminals.

Failure is not an option.

We must and will win!

Random thoughts:

1. The war in Europe can end quickly and peacefully and must.
2. America can still gracefully exit the war in the Middle East and should.
3. A NUCLEAR exchange is still not out of the question.
4. Our national debt will never be repaid causing our economy to eventually take a nose dive.
5. Our election system and processes are still broken and corrupt and little has been done to fix them.
6. We still allow China to send ten of thousands of students to American universities to rip us off of massive amounts of intellectual property all of which is sent back to China to use against the United States.
7. We have no idea exactly how many humans have illegally entered our country and allowing any of them to stay is not helpful.
8. Our elementary and secondary public school education system is completely broken, although we spend the most money of developed nations on the planet.
9. The rise of Islamism and communism in America is a direct result of many issues however, one is the total corruption of the uniparty and its deep state cohorts in our overly bloated federal government.
10. Our economy is on life support, where adjusting of interest rates one way or the other will send shock waves across the world (and our President has zero control over this adjustment—why?) and if we don’t focus on our own hemisphere for energy and worry less about China, Europe, the Middle East, and other parts of the world, the one advantage we’ve had for nearly a hundred years (ie., our economy), goes away and so do we.

If you see this as a reality check, that is what it is. My main concern is the future of America for our children and grandchildren. Beyond that it becomes another generation’s problem.

Wake up America and take our country back one county at a time.

I am unsure how much longer I can keep posting these stories. It is soul-crushing.

[Handre @Handre]

In 1972, the Soviet Union secretly negotiated to buy 30 million tons of American grain while Pravda was running stories about record Soviet harvests. Both things happened simultaneously. You can't make this up.

Central planning, for anyone who hasn't had the pleasure of living under it, works like this: a bureaucrat in Moscow decides how much wheat to grow, sets the price farmers receive for it, and eliminates any personal incentive to actually produce more of it. Soviet collective farm workers earned roughly the same whether they harvested a bumper crop or watched it rot in the field. Without real prices formed by real buyers and sellers, planners have no way to calculate what anything is actually worth or where resources should flow.

The grain deal itself was a masterpiece of dysfunction. Soviet officials knew the harvest numbers were catastrophic before the deal closed, but American grain traders didn't, because the Soviets controlled the information. American taxpayers subsidized the export credits. US grain prices spiked sharply afterward, hitting American consumers with higher bread and meat prices through 1973. The people who paid for Soviet central planning's failure were shoppers in Kansas City and Detroit.

The deeper point free market economists had been making for decades: price signals are how a society talks to itself about scarcity and abundance. Abolish prices and you abolish the conversation. You get Pravda printing one story while grain ships quietly load in New Orleans.

The Soviet state couldn't feed its own people and controlled every newspaper reporting on the harvest. The citizens reading those glowing harvest statistics were also standing in bread lines. This could have been a scene straight out of a George Orwell book.

In Greece, we hate Islam more than anything. But there is a reason for that. It's called: Greek history.

Lebanon and the entire Middle East have experienced for centuries the true face of Islam. That Islam which does not hide behind the lies it needs in order to invade the West as a religion of love and wisdom, but as what it really is: a political ideology full of death, hatred, and destruction.

I know many of you will wonder how I can know the true face of Islam. Well, of course all Greeks know, because all of our ancestors suffered martyrdoms for their faith and their origin. That is why the Greeks love and care for the Christian communities of the Middle East, and you should know that if it were in our hands, Greece would protect these peoples from barbaric Islam at the first opportunity.

Reading @GadSaad 's post, I could not help but think of the countless moments of modern Greek history, when from the fall of Constantinople until 1821 the Greeks lived through the worst period of their lives. Enslaved for almost 400 years under the monster of Islam, which stole, raped, murdered, and tortured in the most horrific ways the Greek Christians who lived throughout Asia Minor (Anatolia), Pontus, Greece, and Cyprus.

For 300 years the Muslim Turks were stealing kids from their mothers. They were waiting for women to birth, raise their kids, and then at the age of 8 were collecting them. The devşirme known as "collection of children" or "blood tax" or in Greek as "paidomazoma", was a systematic practice that forced the recruitment of young Christian boys, typically aged 8–18.

Historians estimate the total number of Christian boys taken across the entire Ottoman Empire around 300.000 kids. From those kids 150.000 were Greek kids (over 300 years). It means the half of the total kids that were stolen were only Greek. For example in 1540, a levy in the Greek regions of Thessaly & Macedonia took 1.000 Greek boys in one season and in Chios (the Greek island) 200 boys taken in 1567 alone. The peak was 5.000 kids/annual from Greece.

The most common torture inflicted by the Muslims during the Ottoman period was whipping. The usual victims were the Christians. It was the introductory torment in every other torture, so common in the persecutions of Christians that the phrase became proverbial: "I will whip you until you change your faith."

During that period, Muslims enjoyed performing all kinds of mutilations. Ears, noses, lips, tongues, breasts, and genitals were primarily cut off. Not just those, though. Let's recall here the Saint Raphael of Mytilene, who was hanged from a tree and had his lower jaw cut off, while the twelve-year-old martyr Irene was roasted in a barrel on the Tuesday of Easter in the year 1463, ten years after the fall of Constantinople.

In many cases, the severed body parts "adorned" the warrior collection of the janissary. The pashas gave bakshish (tips) to every "brave" Muslim warrior according to how many ears of "infidel" Christians he brought back. He himself confirmed his bravery and "manliness" among his peers by having a "komboloi" (worry beads) made from the nipples of breasts he had cut off from women. The bravest man was the one with the longest komboloi after a massacre and looting.

Blinding with various sharp objects was also common. This was particularly frequent during periods of massacres and atrocities. Many unfortunate Christians remained blind for the rest of their lives because they had the misfortune of a horde of janissaries passing through their land. The Egyptians under Ibrahim Pasha were especially notorious for this crime.

Many times Christian captives were placed in front of cannons that were fired, turning them into human shreds of flesh. In other cases, they were tied to galleys that sailed in opposite directions and were torn apart. Dismemberment of victims also occurred with horses.

After the Ottoman conquest of Crete (1669), local officials and governors began to oppress the Christian population in every way: killing, abducting and abusing women, demanding money, and preventing the performance of the subjects' religious duties.

We Greeks, called the Muslim Turks, "The grand masters of torture." In 1821, in Patras, they captured a father and son and, after impaling them, lit a fire and forced the other captives to roast them like lambs. Ali Pasha at that point was more inventive: When he impaled Christians, he forced their relatives to turn the spit, threatening that otherwise he would impale them too.

Immediately after the hanging of Patriarch Gregory V in Constantinople, the Turks hanged three metropolitans at various points in the city. However, one of them, the very elderly Metropolitan of Nicomedia, breathed his last before reaching the place of execution. Such, however, was the Turks' mania for revenge that they punished even the dead man by hanging his corpse.

Just 65 years after the Fall of Constantinople, Sultan Selim I Yavuz, grandson of Mehmed the Conqueror and father of Suleiman, decided to definitively abolish the Patriarchate of Constantinople during the patriarchate of Theoleptos I, and to slaughter all the subjugated Christians (rayah) of the empire who refused to convert to Mohammedanism. Just 65 years after the Fall of Constantinople, the Greeks of Thrace were collectively placed before the forced dilemma of either converting or being wiped off the face of the earth, that is, to suffer ethnic cleansing or genocide, as we would say today. Between those two barbaric options, the Greeks of Thrace (the ancestors of today’s Muslim Greeks of Thrace) chose ethnic cleansing at their own expense; that is, they chose to convert in order to survive as an ancient indigenous people, in the hope that at some point in the future their descendants would regain their national self-awareness and their religious independence, and would then voluntarily return to the bosom of the Greek Nation and of Greek Orthodoxy.

When the Greek Bishop Dionysios the Philosopher of Larissa organized a revolt against the Muslim Turks in 1611, which ended in failure, the Turks flayed him alive, stuffed his skin with straw, and paraded it from city to city. Three days later, the Turks also discovered -the Greek rebels- Deli Giorgos and Lambros. They burned Lambros alive, while they crucified Giorgos and, instead of a crown of thorns on his head, they drilled holes into which they placed feathers. Dionysios’s skin, together with the heads of 85 Greek Christian rebels, was sent to Constantinople, where it was thrown into the Sultan’s stables.

After the failure of Daskalogiannis’s uprising in Sfakia (Crete, 1770), the Turks captured him and flayed him alive, cut him in pieces and throw them in the fire and the dogs.

The Muslim Pasha of Thessaloniki, Abdul Abud, who had set as his goal the extermination of the Greeks, burned 120 villages and wiped out their inhabitants to the last one.

5.000 Greeks were massacred in Naousa, the rest were sold in slave markets, and the entire city was reduced to ashes.

The Janissaries faced no restraint in their behavior toward the Christians. They would even enter churches and desecrate them. And if they discovered a beautiful Greek girl, they would seize her from her parents in order to satisfy their lewd desires. For this reason, anyone who had a pretty daughter was forced to keep her locked inside the house, while most Greek women who lived in towns would wear a burqa when they went out, just like Muslim women.

The Janissaries also exterminate Christians without any reason, simply because they were Christians. Sometimes they executed them in cold blood in the middle of the road, just to test the accuracy of their weapons; other times to watch them writhe in their own blood; sometimes to make the abduction of a bride, right after her wedding, more dramatic; other times simply because the Christians were manly-looking, relatively well-dressed, or on horseback. In the latter case, the rayah would hurry to dismount upon seeing a Janissary, but the latter would draw his pistol and say: “Why did you dismount, you infidel dog? So you could make me ride instead?” And the rayah, Greek Christian, would fall dead.

On December 18, 1803, at Zalongo in Greece, a group of Greek Souliote women jumped from the cliffs, holding their children. They chose death over falling into the hands of Muslims, where they would face rape, abuse, and enslavement.

On March 30, 1822, the Chios Massacre took place. The Muslim Turks slaughtered (Greeks) 42,000 women, men & children. Additionally, 52,000 were sold as slaves in the markets of Smyrna & Constantinople. Young girls were raped publicly in the streets, and newlyweds in front of their husbands, who were then slaughtered. Others were raped in front of their parents, after which the men's genitals were cut off. Women over 40 were set on fire and left to burn alive. Pregnant women had their bellies ripped open and their fetuses pulled out, while small children were thrown forcefully against rocks. The frenzy of the Muslims was unprecedented.

In 1822, Muslims also captured the wives of Zafeirakis and Gatsos. The wife of Zafeirakis was built into the wall up to the neck in the church of Hagia Sophia in Thessaloniki. Maria Karatasou, daughter of a priest refused to change faith, and for this Ebub Lubut enclosed her in a sack with deadly snakes, where she martyred. Pouqueville describes in the darkest colors to the civilized world the dramatic scenes he saw with his own eyes there: "Many women naked were put up to the neck in sacks with cats, snakes, and mice…".

The Greek Christian Woman, during the years when Greece was enslaved to the Muslim Turks, in order to avoid -as much as she could- the abhorrent dishonor from the barbaric Muslims, would destroy the youthful beauty of her face, or create a family from the age of fourteen, believing that she would not give birth to slaves.

On September 1, 1821, Samothrace was devastated by the Ottomans through a general massacre led by the Turkish Kara Ali. Approximately 10,000 men & boys were slaughtered. Women & children were sold in the markets of Constantinople & Smyrna (Holocaust of Samothrace).

On June 4, 1821, the Turks carried out a massacre against the Greeks of Kydonies in Asia Minor (modern-day Ayvalık). They did pogroms at shops and homes, looting them, while seizing women and children to sell as slaves. Simultaneously, they conducted a general massacre of the population, and the town was set ablaze and completely destroyed.

On September 1955 in Constantinople 4,348 Greek businesses, 110 hotels, 27 pharmacies, 23 schools, and 73 churches were damaged or destroyed. The exodus of Greeks from Turkey, reduced the community of over 150.000 (who have already left from the Fall), to fewer than 2.000 today.

Muslims commited GENOCIDES and Islamized the Anatolia, Antioch and Seleucia.

From the Hellenism of the East (Thrace, Asia Minor, Pontus), around a million people were exterminated (1914-1924). In the Pontus region alone, 353,000 people were slaughtered. Because they stole our lands. Smyrna, Aydin, Kydonies, Prousa, Nicaea (Asia Minor region), Trebizond, Kerasounta, Samsounta, Oinoe, Paphra, Ordou, Amaseia (Pontus), provinces of Derkon, Metron, Herakleia, Myriophytou, Kallipoleos, Ainos, Tyrolois, Saranta Ekklision, Adrianople (Eastern Thrace).

I hate Islam with all my heart because I am Greek and because I know my own history.

I strongly suggest that you study my history so you can avoid these atrocities becoming your history too.

The British colonialism lasted a few centuries, left behind railroads, legal systems, education, and modern institutions.

It wasn't perfect. It had its sins. But it also built.

The British brought modern medicine, science, engineering, and governance.

They opened schools, built cities, printed books, developed infrastructure, and left behind functioning states, many of which are now sovereign global players.

Now compare that to Islamic colonialism,

1,400 years long, relentless, brutal, and still ongoing.

It left behind slavery, tribalism, religious apartheid, cultural erasure, and the complete destruction of countless civilizations.

In India alone, Islamic invasions are estimated to have killed 80 million Hindus.

Entire cultures, Zoroastrians, Berbers, Assyrians, Nubians, Copts, were wiped out, Arabized, or reduced to second-class citizens.

Native languages were erased. Indigenous philosophies were buried under Arabic supremacism.
Libraries were destroyed.

Islamic empires didn't bring modernity.

They stole achievements from conquered people, translated their works, stamped Arabic on them, and claimed the glory.

What was preserved from the Greeks, Persians, and Indians wasn't Islamic brilliance, it was Islamic appropriation.

Islamic colonialism didn't leave behind parliaments, constitutions, or democratic institutions.

It left behind dictatorships, theocracies, blasphemy laws, and sharia brutality.

It replaced thinkers with clerics, debate with dogma, and diversity with submission.

Never put British and Islamic colonialism in the same category.

British colonialism built nations.
Islamic colonialism buried them.

These are two different visions of how societies should be organized. The women on the right have the right to live in their Islamic societies as they see fit. The women on the left have a right to not want their societies becoming like those on the right. Every civilization chooses its path. There is nothing noble about the West committing Civilizational Seppuku.

Comprendre la crise de Ceuta.

Le plan des États-Unis, du Maroc et d’Israël sur Ceuta vise le détroit de Gibraltar (eaux territoriales entièrement espagnoles). Ceuta permet à l'Espagne et par elle aux pays Européens alliés, un contrôle des portes de la Méditerranée.

Les États-Unis et Israël veulent imposer un deuxième corridor marocain pour ce détroit, afin de ne pas dépendre de l’Espagne ni, à travers elle, d’une alliance de pays européens. L’axe Washington-Tel-Aviv se méfie des velléités d’autonomie européenne, et en particulier de celles de l’Espagne, qui a donné l’exemple d'une diplomatie active et critique ces derniers mois, à l'occasion des guerres menées par Israël et les États-Unis au Moyen-Orient.

Comme le notent plusieurs géopolitologues avisés ces dernières heures, Israël et les États-Unis veulent contrôler ce détroit via leur vassal marocain face à l’insécurité de la mer Rouge et du canal de Suez. L’opération Ceuta et la contestation de la souveraineté espagnole constituent les phases de déstabilisation et fragilisation destinées à forcer à terme l'Espagne à céder Ceuta (et probablement Melilla) pour ouvrir un corridor à l'axe Washington-Tel-Aviv via les eaux territoriales marocaines.

Pour préparer l’opinion publique, ils s’appuient sur tous les réseaux qu’ils contrôlent en Europe. Ceux-ci deviennent de ce fait faciles à identifier : ils concentrent leurs attaques sur l’Espagne et soutiennent, ou à minima passent sous silence, la responsabilité du Maroc (et de ses suzerains) dans l’invasion de Ceuta. Les influenceurs de la communauté pro-israélienne et les relais de la propagande des États-Unis sont tout particulièrement mobilisés à cette fin.

Les partis de droite anti-immigration, prétendument favorables à la défense des intérêts européens, ainsi que les médias qui relaient habituellement leur communication (CNews en tête), participent jusqu’ici activement à cette opération d’attaque directe contre les intérêts de l’Espagne et donc contre ceux des Européens. Par leurs réactions, ils cherchent à isoler l’Espagne au prétexte de sa politique migratoire nuisible (et surtout de sa contestation de la politique d’Israël et des États-Unis au Moyen-Orient), tout en omettant largement de mettre cette affaire en perspective du point de vue de l'intérêt collectif européen, par incompétence, démagogie ou pire.

À gauche, même gêne. La perte de souveraineté de l’Espagne sur Ceuta est présentée par certains comme un enjeu décolonial. Mais la gauche LFI, plus avisée des questions géopolitiques et une fois sortie de ses réflexes conditionnés sur l’immigration (qui n’est pas vraiment ici l’enjeu), sait que la perte de contrôle de l’Espagne sur Ceuta (puis Melilla) aboutirait de fait à servir les intérêts des « puissances impérialistes » et à une nette perte de contrôle des Européens sur l’accès à la Méditerranée. Cruel dilemme.

[Handre @Handre]

Nobody grows up dreaming of a career shuffling directives around Brussels.

Those jobs always fill with the same type of person: people drawn to power for its own sake, the ones who crave authority without ever answering for it. Bureaucracy doesn’t attract the best. It selects for the worst, then shields them when they inevitably screw up.

Hayek named this in The Road to Serfdom. His chapter “Why the Worst Get on Top” spelled out the logic. Unchecked power appeals most to the people least troubled by wielding it.
Mises found the engine underneath. In a market, a bad decision shows up as a loss, and losses remove you. Bureaucratic management faces no such test. Fail to fix a problem and you keep your job, then collect a bigger budget and a larger staff to keep failing with. The incentive runs backwards: waste earns you more, and the machine grows on its own.

Look at the European Union. Ursula von der Leyen presides over the Commission, the body that proposes almost all EU law. No European voter ever put her there. Heads of state handed her the post in a 2019 backroom deal and waved her through parliament. Christine Lagarde runs the European Central Bank, setting monetary policy for more than 340 million people and steering the value of the money in their pockets. She faced no voters for the job either.

You can throw out your national government every few years, but nothing above it moves, the apparatus stays. The unelected keep their offices, their pensions, their power, untouched by the only check ordinary people have.

This is the design, not a flaw in it. The people with the most control over your money and your future are the ones you are not allowed to fire.
