    The left has far more sway in media than the right, especially in what’s generally considered ‘mainstream’ or ‘credible’ and it’s not even close. Right wing media that fits your description is generally considered ‘alternative media’ or fringe. The only right wing media company that’s remotely mainstream is Fox News, even Fox sold its entertainment properties to Disney, a left leaning media company. Hollywood and the broader entertainment media environment is rabidly left leaning.

    You have a bias because the left is more compatible with your worldview, so the right wing evangelicals are more offensive to you than the left wing nuts. I mean these people wore cloth masks to the beach for 2 years and we’re supposed to believe the assertion that they’re less pliable and harder to manipulate than those right wing evangelicals who have been convinced by coercive Jewish oligarchs that Israel is chosen by God, which isn’t even a widely shared view among Christians. As someone who grew up in a Lutheran education system from 2nd grade through high school, WELS synod to be precise (Wisconsin EVANGELICAL Lutheran Synod), the modern state of Israel was never or rarely mentioned in my curriculum. In fact, Luther himself was critical of the Jews. What’s taught to Lutherans is that the old covenant was fulfilled by Jesus’ sacrifice and that believers in him are his chosen people. There’s more to it, obviously, but the idea that evangelicals broadly are easily manipulated and subservient to Israel is not the full picture.

    Obviously the point is that there’s no shortage of easily manipulated goy across the political spectrum.

    "Seven US Navy personnel have reportedly been killed and several others wounded in a violent clash aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, as growing unrest among the carrier’s crew has exposed mounting pressure inside the US military amid a prolonged deployment.

    "The incident erupted after an adviser to US Central Command (CENTCOM) chief Brad Cooper boarded the carrier to address mounting complaints from crew members following protests by their families over the ship’s prolonged deployment, according to Tasnim News Agency, citing an informed military source."

  • I think Slavoj Zizek has the right perspective on this— that antisemitism is pathological because the Jew has a central and phantasmagoric place in the consciousness of the antisemite. In his famous address at the University of Chicago Hillel in the 1960s, Leo Strauss said the ironic premise of Nazi ideology is that Jews are central to European history; and that efforts to negate, deny, and efface this history only affirm it. For the very same reason, efforts to suppress legitimate criticism of Israel end up reaffirming that criticism, and the honest and beautiful faces of the Korean, Turkish, and Palestinian American students who were the victims of Trump’s lawless repression only bring into focus the wretched and twisted face of Donald Trump and the criminal conduct of this administration— this administration which is a criminal enterprise, as the United States has been for over a generation.

    Why don’t you put your money where your mouth is and offer up your own clear, concise definition of “anti-white”,
     
    "Anti" means "against."

    "Whites" are people of European descent.

    "Anti-white" refers to actions or ideologies that are against white people or their interests.

    Examples include "affirmative action" policies that take employment and education opportunities away from whites in order to transfer them to less qualified non-whites. Or policies that blame white people for the failings of non-whites. Or the BLM movement which sought to excuse non-whites for their crimes against whites.

    I don't know whether you are authentically dumb, or just playing dumb. But these are basic English words that you are claiming you can't understand.

    Replies: @Corvinus

    ““Anti-white” refers to actions or ideologies that are against white people or their interests.”

    Vague, but OK for starters.

    For starters, do these actions include 1) white people marrying non-whites, 2) white people having mixed children, or 3) white families selling their homes to non-white families in a predominantly white neighborhood? Why/why not?

    What exactly are “white interests”? Who determines what they are for the entire race? How? Must all white people facilitate these “interests”? Why? Are white people “traitors” if they oppose these “interests”? Why?

    The following are all relevant, thoughtful questions to ascertain your position.

    “Examples include “affirmative action” policies that take employment and education opportunities away from whites in order to transfer them to less qualified non-whites.”

    A broad generalization. You are acting as if your statement in unequivocally true.

    Legally, affirmative action policies do not require hiring or admitting candidates who lack the necessary skills, qualifications, or credentials. And our laws strictly prohibits racial quotas, set-asides, or the automatic replacement of candidates based strictly on race.

    “Or policies that blame white people for the failings of non-whites.”

    Specifically?

    “Or the BLM movement which sought to excuse non-whites for their crimes against whites.”

    Again, another broad generalization. You are acting as if your statement in unequivocally true. During any peaceful protest movement, there will be incidents of property damage, looting, or violence occurred. Of course, there is nuance and context in these situations.

    The US bond market is already in a nosedive and it is going to drag the US economy off a cliff. Who gives a shit about the rest of the world? I don't. What I care about is if the crashing bond market is going to take down the record high housing and stock bubbles. For one thing, it would be good if real estate crashed with higher rates. Houses would become affordable if they dropped 90%. The only reason why starter homes are $750,000 was QE and record low rates in the 2-3% ranges. Fools piled into huge mortgages expecting the bubble to keep going forever. But it didn't and now mortgage rates are edging up, following the 10 year Treasury (plus 200 basis points).

    https://www.elliottwave.com/articles/bond-vigilantes-are-back-what-rising-yields-mean/

    The chart you need to see now, the (14 Aug 2026) 10 year treasury chart showing wave 3 of 3 up starting now. Bond yields are stair stepping into a impulse wave up pattern according to EWT technicians.
    https://i.imgur.com/mc6Mqmo.png

    About a decade ago I recognized the long term pattern in 10 year Treasury bond yields. Since the creation of the inflation engine, the Federal Reserve banking cartel, in 1913, interest rates have gone unstable - forming a giant megaphone pattern with one last leg to go.

    Around year 2016 I posted this chart on my blog:
    https://i.imgur.com/uhQOxIq.png

    As you can see, interest rates did bottom in 2020 and now they are on the rise, even so, 99.9999% of the people currently in the system have no idea what is about to transpire – rapidily rising rates from out of control spending and monetary expansion during Covid hoax years. During Covid the Fed jacked the M1 money supply 16 trillion overnight - this fueled the everything bubble yet is not stopping interest rates from going back up.

    So what is coming down the Albert C Pike highway to hell? A Biblical level financial crisis which will be studied and talked about for centuries. The USA has made an epic mistake of playing with Zionist monster (assisting Israel with 911) and painting itself into a corner with massive debt. The USA is 40 trillion in debt and projected to add another 24 trillion in just the next decade. Like what do these morons think is going to happen?

    Gookag Ai - "The national debt held by the public is projected to increase by $25 trillion over the next decade, while gross federal debt is expected to surge by roughly $25.1 trillion.

    According to the latest 10-year outlook from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), the U.S. will far exceed its historical “trillion-dollar-a-year” pace.

    Deficits are actually projected to total $24.4 trillion over the next decade, averaging over $2.4 trillion in net new debt every single year."
     
    Bond holders are not amused. Russia sold all it’s treasury debt. China sold half so far, and is buying gold with both hands bleeding. The world has been reacting to our massive debts. The sane people of the world can see we are insane and want no part of our self sabotage operation. Unsurprisingly, interest rates are moving up. Interest on the debt now exceeds a trillion a year – the biggest line item on the budget. But what is Clowngress and POTUS doing as China, Russia, and everyone else is selling out bonds?

    How does the Orange moron respond? Let’s submit a budget by increasing Pentacon spending by 50% to 1.5 trillion! Trump should be leaving the middle east and cutting the war budget by 50%. Stupid evil war mongering Trump is doing EXACTLY the wrong move. This we should expect, Trump is an egotistical moron who always makes the wrong move. What is going to surprise Trump and everyone else, is rapidly rising interest rates. Which they will not be able to stop. And when they try to stop them, it will only make the situation worse.

    Goolag Ai - Yukon Jack argues that many doom-and-gloom financial analysts are wrong when they predict the United States will suffer a currency collapse identical to Zimbabwe or Weimar Germany. In those cases, “backwater nations” simply printed extra zeros on paper currency. The U.S. is a sophisticated first-world global hegemon, its monetary destruction will manifest through the bond market, not just raw printing presses. The Federal Reserve cannot allow inflation to run entirely uncontained without completely destroying its global institutional credibility.

    2. The Inevitability of a “Volcker-Style” Pivot

    Because the Fed is forced to protect the credibility of the U.S. Treasury market, Yukon Jack argues that central bankers will ultimately have no choice but to replace leadership with an ultra-anti-inflation hawk. He frequently points to figures like former St. Louis Fed CEO James Bullard as candidates who could act as a modern Paul Volcker.

    (note – Trump installed inflation hawk Kevin Warsh)

    To crush structural inflation and defend the bond market from the government’s trillion-dollar deficit spending, Yukon Jack asserts this “New Volcker” would be forced to jack the benchmark interest rate up to astronomical, multi-decade highs—sending rates “to the moon”.

How fucking sick is Amerika which endorses, bankrolls, and assists the Israeli hellions in genocide, helped Israel do 911, protects Satanyahu from prosecution, attacks the criminal court trying to prosecute, spends trillions on wars for Israhell and elects a Zionist lunatic for POTUS?

    Bond market collapse.

    Interest rates back to 1980 highs (for starts)

Weimer Amerika was fooled by the fat Orange bastard, Trump was no nationalist, he was a god damned Zionist traitor – yet he is still loved by Bibletard Evangelicals morons.

The transformation of nothing into gold is almost entirely aimed at women, not that they’re at all lesbians.

    But, the point is this—if an almost ugly plain jane like Taylor Swift can look like a seductive femme fatale with the right makeup, so can all the other plain janes. In the same way, the female brain has its thoughts authored by the Jews on sociopolitical and other matters. In short, democracy is a matter of brainwashing women that’s nearing the point of self-immolation. And, the Karens can’t get enough of it.

    What I’m saying is that for thousands of years men have been beating and raping women. You could call it a primitive technology for keeping women in line. That, plus pregnancy. And it worked! What shattered the old, “traditional” way of doing things — the patriarchy, if you will — was the technology of birth control, which for the first time gave women power over their own fertility. Birth control tech, including abortion, which is just another form of it, is behind the rise of the de facto gynocracy under which you live today. The Rolling Stones put it very well in their song Memo from Turner:

    The baby’s dead
    My lady said

    Why, you all work for me!

    Of course, you are so content to be a woman’s slave and meal ticket that you can hardly conceive of any other way to live. The old way of patria potestas, the ancient Roman patriarchy that existed before Christianity, which gave the Roman father the power of life and death over his wife and children, who essentially had no rights at all and thus were effectively his slaves — that’s anathema to you. You are such an enthusiastic slave boy you’d never rebel against women, from whom you derive your very reason for existence, or the status quo, with which you’ve come to terms and have no plan or even a real desire to disrupt. You’re a stereotype, the male feminist white knight, railing against rape and violence against women like any true feminist would.

    What the svidomites don’t get is that post-Soviet Russia willingly recognized a dubiously drawn Soviet boundary as an independent state as long as it (at the very least) remained neutral and respected its large pro-Russian community.

    They blew it to their own detriment. Then again, a smaller state only on former Hapsburg ruled territory is something easier for them to maintain.

    Why is it so important to you how many of his own people Stalin killed, in a country that is alien to you?

    I think we should set the record straight on history.

    I get a similar question when I point out where our resident Hitler apologists are wrong or not telling the whole story.

    Some of us want an accurate take on history the precedes politics. If you like something that Stalin or Hitler did then make that point honestly. Don't drift into trying to remake their images by cutting corners on history. It doesn't work and especially in an open forum.

    It should be more important to you why FDR betrayed this nation, and fought a war in support of the International Communism.

    It was Hitler that declared war on the US and was delighted that his Japanese ally had gunned down 18 year olds. The men on duty at Pearl Harbor were mostly 18-21 year olds that were cleaning the ships while the older sailors had shore leave.

    So spare me any lectures on FDR. I think he was a lousy president but it was Hitler that declared war on the US and made FDR's dream of ending American isolation come true.

    Hitler recklessly gambled on two fronts and then hoped his Japanese ally would kill enough Anglos to tip the war. What a hero for Whites.

    Stalin was a Georgian who killed over a million people with his collectivist plans. That was after Lenin admitted they didn't understand economics. Meaning Stalin saw that failures of Marxism and yet continue to push for collectivization. He also made an alliance with Hitler to split Eastern Europe which included marching Christians off to the Gulags. Stalin was not a nationalist. A nationalist would have ended the USSR and freed Georgia. Not a single Soviet state had a majority that wanted to be part of the USSR.

    “lean hard NeoCon”

    I stopped reading Instapundit because of, not so much Reynolds, some of the posters there falling into that category. I do not remember Glenn Reynolds ever mentioning Steve Sailer. Sailer, Reynolds, Ron Unz and me are late Boomers, a group that has been labeled “Generation Jones”. The Wikipedia article on them says they are less optimistic and more cynical than the early Boomers. We are less likely to think a leftist revolution would lead to a good outcome and more of us ended up on the political right.

    I would be interested to hear what Reynolds and Sailer think of the rise of the democratic socialists. AOC is now saying Woke 1 was crazy. The Democrats have moved from saying defund the police and abolish the border to saying stop the rising prices and stop the stupid Iran war. This is more effective because prices are rising and the Iran war is stupid. Their economic solutions will not work since socialism does not work. We need to move away from our corrupt crony capitalist system towards a more free market economy.

    Democratic socialism goes back to the nineteen thirties. Three versions of socialism arose then: the national socialism of Hitler, the international socialism of Stalin and the democratic socialism of Roosevelt. Only our version of socialism is really still around. All three versions, in addition to having expensive welfare states and interference in the economy, suffered from high levels of military spending and imperial overstretch.

    Everyone who is unemployed should be immediately eligible to be drafted.

    Time to shave their heads and teach these kiddies some discipline in the military.

    All simply untrue. Nothing about a draft is good. Nothing.

    First of all, understand that currently only 23% of youngsters in the draft-bait age range are even eligible to join the military. The rest simply don’t qualify for a variety of reasons, including criminal records, drug use, poor health, birth defects, inability to pass the ASVAB (the written entrance exam), dropping out of school and no high school diploma, etc.

    The biggest cause is obesity. Americans of all ages are just too damned fat and a couple of months of basic training won’t reverse decades of no exercise and poor eating habits that resulted in lousy bodies. Those with poor organ development and poor bone health are the ones prone to getting injured during basic training, costing the military (mainly you, the taxpayer) a couple hundred thousand dollars in medical treatment and it ends with a medical discharge and no soldier to show for it.

    About a quarter of those with high school diplomas don’t finish their enlistments and get “chaptered out” for one reason or another. For those lacking high school diplomas (probably picked up a GED somewhere), the rate is just over 50%. These are mostly people who should have never been in the military in the first place and they just waste everyone’s time by being there.

    If someone is a “wuss,” as you describe, he’ll still be a wuss in the military. The military isn’t going to change someone’s basic nature, and putting a government-issued costume on someone won’t change that reality.

    You noted youths wasting time while playing with their cell phones. About 15 years ago I paid a visit to Fort Lewis, WA, where a battalion was being loaded onto railway flatcars at the post’s railhead for transport to desert warfare training in southern California at Fort Irwin. The Army civilian employee rail crew mentioned their disgust with most of the “soldiers” on site — they were playing with their cell phones while a critical handful were doing all of the real work.

    This is typical throughout the military. A critical core do most of the work and so many just goof off.

    Something else to keep in mind, besides the fact that only 23% of youths even qualify for entering the military, there is no justification for rounding up everyone with no job or nothing better to do and putting them in the military. The military doesn’t have enough units, enough barracks buildings, enough positions, etc., to put them somewhere, employ them toward some positive end, and also dedicate countless careerists to being their supervisors to direct their activities. It would just be a costly waste of everyone’s time.

    It would also be crazy expensive. Inducting, training, clothing, housing, feeding soldiers is not cheap at all, and if you draft most of the youth into the military, the taxes you would have to pay would rise very sharply.

    People like to think that a draft would “straighten out” today’s youth but that just can’t happen. For one thing, the military can’t absorb all of the nation’s youth or even the 23% who qualify. Even if it could, that would mean the other 77%, also known as “the vast majority,” would never see the inside of the military and would remain unaffected. Since only a fraction of the 23% can go into the military, that means the portion of today’s youth in need of “straightening out” and can actually be put into uniform is ridiculously tiny. A draft would simply have no overall impact on today’s youth.

    Something else to keep in mind that the environment in which soldiers live and work is not conducive to “straightening out” anyone. There’s no shortage of racial tension, theft, drug dealing and drug use, alcoholism, brutality, sexual assaults (and not just of women), etc., and outside a post or base you’ll probably see the worst society has to offer — strip clubs, brothels, crime-filled areas, surplus shops where you can sell stolen field gear and uniforms, etc. I’ve never seen a good area outside of a Navy base, and the city of Fayetteville, NC, outside of Fort Bragg, especially Hay Street downtown, hardly needs any introduction. Equivalent examples exist beyond the gates of so many, if not most, military posts.

    The whole idea of a draft to improve people is also just nuts. The military is a branch of a government that lies, cheats, steals, etc., so how do you expect a branch of that government to improve anyone’s behavior, morals, etc.? People act like the military is a completely separate entity, and it most definitly is not.

The demonic comes into play when women are convinced by the hypnosis created by TV news into believing that this spineless, womanly faggot who, in fact, was some hideous lesbian’s sock puppet, was the “sexiest man alive.” He went along for the ride, God bless him, and at least he liked playing golf and having a few scotches at the 19th hole. Some say that when he was reportedly asked what it felt like being the most powerful man in the world, he answered (in jest, a little joke, Karen, so please no hysterics) that he couldn’t do one thing without permission from the Jews.

    What probably created the …ahm…disappearance…. is (heretical for a proper Croat as the author definitely is) the thought that this isn’t result of simply 50 years of Communism. Or Croatian “diaspora” coming back from South America and buying the country for peanuts. Let alone anything to do with Serbs, except brief Beograd rule between world wars. Irrelevant for this issue.

    The heresy is that it’s related to very culture there.
    As, actually, hinted in the document itself. Result of the attitude towards state institutions resulting itself from long history under others rule. Italians, Hungarians, Ottomans, Austrians, Serbs. All that before the Communists and “diaspora”.

    It’s nothing peculiar to Croats and Croatia; we can see the same in most ex-Communists countries, but, more importantly, also in all European Mediterranean states.

    Christ founded His Church.
     
    Sorry to break it to you, but Christ didn't 'found' shit.

    Jesus was one of many apocalyptic Jewish preachers roaming the region in the first century, and he saw his movement--if you can even call it that--as firmly within the Jewish tradition.

    The so-called 'church' was allegedly founded by Peter, but it was really Paul who did the heavy lifting.

    I guess some people argue that Christ founded the church based on his teachings, but those teachings aren't the essence of Christianity.

    Christianity's fundamental doctrine is that of vicarious redemption. In other words, Jesus had to be executed in order to absolve humanity of its 'original sin'.

    Of course, that's an utterly immoral proposition, but either way, you can't 'found' a church based on events which haven't yet transpired.

    “ Christianity’s fundamental doctrine is that of vicarious redemption. In other words, Jesus had to be executed in order to absolve humanity of its ‘original sin’.”
    This resonated with the pagans around and in the Asia Minor and Alexandria. It was easy for them to replace similarly behaving existing Gods with similarly portrayed Jesus. A cult that is based on abstract,ethereal .mystical,imaginary ,and on futuristic developments and imposed by emotion can congeal into a mass movement of illiterate and poor multitudes . Actually poverty and illiteracy are required for the growth of the movement . Emotion is a mixture of hatred and fear .Hatred of the well off and fear of authorities and fear of the after life.
    Paul turned the entire Jesus movement on its head . It was a story that was told by Paul . Jesus was his min character. Hollywood couldn’t have done a better job .
    Why did he do ? He could have declared himself a messiah .But he did not. He could have written the script from the very beginning of the basic thought of the Gospel .

    “Anti” means “against.”

    “Whites” are people of European descent.

    “Anti-white” refers to actions or ideologies that are against white people or their interests.

    Examples include “affirmative action” policies that take employment and education opportunities away from whites in order to transfer them to less qualified non-whites. Or policies that blame white people for the failings of non-whites. Or the BLM movement which sought to excuse non-whites for their crimes against whites.

    ““Anti-white” refers to actions or ideologies that are against white people or their interests.”

    Vague, but OK for starters.

    For starters, do these actions include 1) white people marrying non-whites, 2) white people having mixed children, or 3) white families selling their homes to non-white families in a predominantly white neighborhood? Why/why not?

    What exactly are “white interests”? Who determines what they are for the entire race? How? Must all white people facilitate these “interests”? Why? Are white people “traitors” if they oppose these “interests”? Why?

    The following are all relevant, thoughtful questions to ascertain your position.

    “Examples include “affirmative action” policies that take employment and education opportunities away from whites in order to transfer them to less qualified non-whites.”

    A broad generalization. You are acting as if your statement in unequivocally true.

    Legally, affirmative action policies do not require hiring or admitting candidates who lack the necessary skills, qualifications, or credentials. And our laws strictly prohibits racial quotas, set-asides, or the automatic replacement of candidates based strictly on race.

    “Or policies that blame white people for the failings of non-whites.”

    Specifically?

    “Or the BLM movement which sought to excuse non-whites for their crimes against whites.”

    Again, another broad generalization. You are acting as if your statement in unequivocally true. During any peaceful protest movement, there will be incidents of property damage, looting, or violence occurred. Of course, there is nuance and context in these situations.

It is very stifling and they go through the day with all kinds of earth and racial guilt. They are often attracted to indifference as a break from liberal politics. I de-indoctrinated one girl within a week or two. She was struggling with not being attracted to liberal men and disliked having sex with them. I (cough) enlightened her on how she has a basic female nature that isn’t her fault and conflicts with liberalism. Some of these women are at war with themselves. It isn’t natural for them.

    "During the Stalinist era, the dictator’s most powerful lieutenant was Lazar Kaganovich, who was Jewish, as was Maxim Litvinov, who served as foreign minister throughout nearly all of the 1930s. Stalin’s first NKVD chief Genrikh Yagoda was Jewish as was the wife of Nikolai Yezhov, the man who replaced him. Also Jewish was Lev Mekhlis, the top Soviet military commissar during World War II"

    - Just in case of further interest to anyone:

    A) Not only was Lazar Kaganovich Stalin`s deputy in the mid 1930`s, but furthermore all of Lazar`s four brother also were part of the Bolshevik party and 3 of them (Mikhail, Israel, Yuli) gained leading functionary positions within (Head of Aviation/Defense Industrie/ Meat-Dairy Industries).

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazar_Kaganovich#%22Iron_Lazar%22

    B) The second/third most powerful person in that Stalin government during the 30`s was Vyacheslav Molotov who was married to the highest ranking female Soviet politician of the time (first ever Narkom-member) and during the entire period from 1918 until 1932 Stalin and his wife shared adjacent Kremlin apartments within the Kremlin living quarters with the Molotovs, usually dining and their children playing together daily.

    Molotovs wife was Jewish Perl Salomonova (and thus by Jewish law so were their 2 children), later a close friend and interpreter for Golda Meir:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polina_Zhemchuzhina

    C) Regarding the overrepresentation of Jews among the top ambassadors of that lead-up to WW2 era, we have interestingly Molotov`s own words on record ( late-life interviews with Felix Chuev "Molotov Remembers"):

    Regarding the Need for a "Clean Sweep" of the Ministry Molotov explicitly recalled that when he took over the Commissariat of Foreign Affairs, Joseph Stalin ordered him to purge the ministry. Regarding Litvinov's identity and the heavy concentration of Jewish officials in the diplomatic corps, Molotov remarked:

    "Thank God for these words! Jews formed an absolute majority in the leadership and among the ambassadors. It wasn't good."

    Not only proven by the fact that Litvinov was the most powerful person of the entire Soviet Union regarding foreign affairs, but that fascinatingly ALL Soviet Ambassadors to the Major European Powers (England, France and -ironically- Nazi-Germany...) at the time were Jewish:

    France:

    Valerian Dovgalevsky (Served 1927–1934): Born to Jewish parents in Ukraine, he served in Paris until his death from a heart attack in 1934.Jakob Suritz (Served 1937–1940): After his deployment in Germany, Suritz was reassigned to Paris

    England:

    Ivan Maisky (Served 1932–1943): Born Jan Lachowiecki to a Polish-Jewish father (who later converted to Orthodoxy), Maisky was one of the Soviet Union's most famous and longest-serving diplomats.

    Nazi- Germany:

    Lev Khinchuk (Served 1930–1934): Born to a Jewish family, he served as the Soviet representative in Berlin during Hitler’s rise to power before being recalled to Moscow.Jakob Suritz (Served 1934–1937): Born to a Jewish family in Dvinsk, he had a notoriously difficult assignment as a Jewish diplomat presenting credentials directly to Adolf Hitler

    D) Furthermore interesting that not only was the highest ranking female politician of the time, Molotov`s mentioned wife, Jewish, but so was the second highest ranking and (by Stalin) most decorated second highest (none other than the notorious former "Butcheress of Crimea", nicknamed "Demon"):

    Thanks but I just ran into this (I don't know why I missed this in my earlier searches): Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was deeply critical of American society, culture, and politics, despite having found refuge there after his expulsion from the Soviet Union in 1974. While he fiercely opposed Soviet communism, he believed the West suffered from its own profound spiritual and moral decline. He argued that American culture was excessively focused on consumerism, wealth, and physical comfort at the expense of higher spiritual values.

    Decline of Courage and Spirit: In his famous 1978 Harvard commencement address, A World Split Apart, he claimed that the West—including the United States—suffered from a noticeable "decline in courage" and a lack of deep moral responsibility.

    Superficial Media: He criticized the American press and media for being rushed, superficial, and intrusive, accusing it of sensationalism and prioritizing profit and trends over truth.

    Legalism Over Morality: Solzhenitsyn famously remarked that American society was overly reliant on legal rights and mechanistic legalism rather than a true internal sense of moral duty or freedom.

  • America, the light on the hill, the republic that was created by the people, Puritans, who failed in Britain when the Commonwealth was replaced by the restoration of Charles II.

    America is failing for the very same reasons the Commonwealth failed… because privilege is what those that make revolutions are really after…all the fine words of equality and a common fraternity is just decorated empty words.

    Trump has restored privileges to the “right sort of people” all his fine words to restore America to it rightful place, a restoration of the old order, now bounce around at his feet hollow and empty.

    Trump’s restoration was never meant for everyone… only the ownership class…many come from the old Puritan stock…the revolutionaries will always betray everything for privilege… which they have done. And once, even the dullest light sees the betrayal… their hearts will sink …and the belief in the “light on the hill” will be extinguished.

    Britain is nothing now because of the betrayal started in 1660…so too the state created from those escaping the betrayal…is also now failing for the same betrayal of the founding ideals.

    Humans cannot be trusted once privilege is experienced…Christian ideals are just slogans to massage the ears of those who do the real work and still believe in a better world. Unless contracts are made with leaders and real consequences are enacted… privilege will rule!

    John Johnson: "Punching a woman is not a sign strength nor does it counteract liberalism. ... If anything that type of wanton violences [sic] only feeds the system."

    Both violence against women and rape are excellent ways of counteracting liberalism, in just the same way that lynching niggers is a great way to counteract negrolatry. Of course, in our de facto gynocracy, violence against women is the greatest conceivable crime, as it would represent rebellion against the status quo.

    Then too, I have to wonder here about what you mean by "the system". As I usually use the term, I'm referring to the system of interlocking techniques more fully expressed by the phrase "the technological system". As you use it, I guess you just mean to refer vaguely to what seems to you to be an unacceptable state of affairs. But as I've pointed out in previous remarks, the technological system is inherently anti-human, and its continued expansion through "Progress", means that things will only get worse as time goes on no matter what happens. If Goad hadn't reacted to Sky Ryan's provocations by beating her, would that have weakened "the system"? I don't think so. Then he would just have been another male feminist white knight like you. That, too, would have only "fed the system".

    John Johnson: "Goad had zero ideas and was just angry at the system. "

    LOL Goad certainly had no ideas, hence his appeal to the "alt-right", which also has no ideas. Ironically, his having no ideas helped them identify with him. Like them, Goad not only failed to properly analyze and understand the existential crisis the white race is experiencing, but he also offered no solutions. I don't think he was "angry at the system" so much as engaged in constructing a persona that would express anger at it, building up the public image of Jim Goad as a kind of white Everyman, a spokesman for white discontent. Actually being angry would have required him to be genuine about something, which would have been out of character.

    So instead of trying to de-indoctrinate liberal White women you think they should just be gang raped into accepting an argument? You think that will help undermine that liberal ideological belief that White men are naturally evil? Rape them until they swear that White men are good and decent?

    One of the best arguments for some form of Christian morals is to take a microphone and let a secular leftist or rightist talk about what they think should happen to people that oppose their political beliefs. Doesn’t matter if it is left or right. They quickly go to extremes that they think are quite reasonable. I’ve seen some of the nicest people quickly talk about sending dissenters to camps. You are probably the first poster I have seen here actually advocate rape as a political tool.

    Well I view him in the same vein as Fuentes in that he is not only a crass nihilist that lacks ideas but ends up serving as a caricature for the establishment. Like some lame Howard Stern for White trashionalists to listen to as they play video games. Fuentes is just another form of gay entertainment. He does his shock jock show that changes nothing while the establishment can point to him as an example for what happens if you stray from the reservation of acceptable right and left. Read too much on the internet about race and you’ll be like that gay Hispanic incel who rants about the Jews. Jones wanted to do a similar hit on Goad. Here lies that wife beater who was probably gay. He bought into that racial crap that we the good Christians conservatives try to keep you from as it will only lead to wife beating, drugs and gay sex.

    I really don’t likes Fuentes or Jones. In fact I like dislike them equally. Fuentes is just a gay entertainer and while I understand the concern and underlying morals of Jones his approach doesn’t work because race is in fact real and despite over half a trillion in government spending it doesn’t go away. The Jones approach has been tried…….for decades. It doesn’t work and just confuses Whites into thinking there is some universal minimal government and Christianity combo that will fix anything. That isn’t true.

Unlike women, MOST men don’t give a shit how much money a woman has…. Imagine some handsome 25 year old marrying Madonna or Cher now? Oops, I’m sorry a Gen Z or Millennial male is weird enough to have the hots for granny. I never thought Cher nor Madonna were attractive even in their prime but apparently Cher is in her late 70s has a Nigra boyfriend in his late 30’s. Gawd, baby it was stupid enough when you Could Turn Back Time in the late 1980s and sported some young boy toy for publicity, I think Cher then was 40 with a twenty something boyfriend which isn’t bad, but a late 70 something with a nigra late 30 something is pathetic.

    Damn, a nigra will do any White woman or in the case of an incident outside of Atlanta, a nigra tried to rape a pit bull. Either the bravest or horniest man alive. Taylor Swift? What’s the attraction? She can’t sing, she’s below average in looks?

  • anonymous[553] • Disclaimer says:

    Germany was several countries inadequately united. In the East there was Prussia: Lutheran, agrarian, hierarchical, militarist. In the West there was Catholic Germany, but how different the industrialized Rhineland was from rural Bavaria. Protestant Saxony, Catholic Baden, and mixed Wurttemberg complicated the picture.

    The low German Northwest was Protestant. Was it aristocratic? We generally think of the bourgeois patricians of Hamburg, Bremen, and Lubeck. Aristocrats aren’t much in the picture. Venice, too, was built on trade. Was it truly aristocratic or rather patrician? If low German culture was built by bourgeois patricians, what happened when the bourgeoisie turned away from culture towards industry, finance, and politics? Aristocrats were even less interested in the arts and less well equipped to promote them.

    Langbehn’s turn towards Catholicism works against his schema. The inwardness of Rembrandt and North German culture had a lot to do with Protestantism. Nothing against Catholic Germany, but its culture and orientation were very different. Catholic spirituality was expressed in the exuberant rococo, rather than in the tones and shades of Bach or Rembrandt. Like it or not, low German culture had a lot to do with Luther.

    Langbehn’s search for a true German culture excluded much of the actual Germany of his time. Germany, the great industrial and military power of its day, wasn’t going to return to the “gentle, poetic, German aristocratic intellectual life of the Middle Ages.” What did that have to do with the bustling life of Berlin, Dusseldorf, or Hamburg? Like it or not, German industry and science and urban ways of life were melding with the rest of European culture. What time was there for gentle, poetic life in the industrial world?

    Nonsensical too is his reproach of historians and art historians of antiquity for being un-German in their appreciation of ancient cultures. A wiser writer would appreciate the perspectives they brought. Does being truly German mean the rejection of all outside influences? Langbehn also misses the point that Goethe (and the “low German” Shakespeare) were able to write what they did because they were able to assimilate foreign influences. Weren’t the great monuments and palaces of Berlin the result of outside influences (classical and rococco)?

    “Langbehn links classical art etymologically to the army and navy, and stresses that the classical virtues of the Prussian military spirit should now be formulated in an artistic manner in order to create a new classical German culture.”

    But how likely was 19th-20th century militarist Prussia to cultivate the arts? Hadn’t it already handed that realm over to others? Was Prussianism likely to give Germany a gentle, poetic artistic and intellectual life? Jacob also needs to look into his use of “classical” after telling us how much Langbehn deplored classicism.

    Finally, what does it say about the maintenance of “true” German culture that it seems to demand a warrior ethos? Langbehn never realized what modern war really entailed? For that alone, how can one take him seriously now? That was the great contradiction: defenders of “authentic” German culture associated it with warrior values, but modern war was so destructive that cultures couldn’t survive it. The problems of interwar Germany had much to do with the lost and destructive war, but the way out that was chosen celebrated militarism and only led to another lost and even mores destructive war.

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.
     
    if you restrict that to beginning in the 20th century, then I agree,

    but then, what nations on earth, are any different?

    Is there a nation on earth, where the elites construct a society to ensure that they would be submissive to the people? In such a society, there soon wouldn't be any elites, and I know of none.

    In every society I'm aware of, the people are always submissive to the elites, by nature and by definition. Or they wouldn't be 'elites'. Being so, they always have every intention of staying so, vs. the (always) comparatively submissive people.

    Today in Murka, the elites are Zionists, and even as that is becoming untenable, they, (as the article points out), are increasingly using draconian methods, to maintain the status quo.

    George Washington, (for all his foibles), was quintessentially the father of that American spirit, that decided it would be better to kill the elites' goons, (or die trying), than to suffer living under the whims of such 'elites', when being free, (at least for white men), was an alternative.

    Now today, it is all Americans, of all creeds and hues, who should be resurrecting that American spirit of olde. We need a new Declaration of Independence from ZOG.

    We need a modern Thomas Paine.

    Oh definitively, all present and historical nation-states are build on an hierarchy that limits access to power to the unfavored and opens opportunities to the favored.

    The uniqueness of America is the the pervasiveness of media and cultural control and the long-term application of such control. I know of no other such seeming democratic state where it is present to such a great extent (of course some will dispute this).

    People in the know generally trace it to conscious decisions to manufacture consent as set up by Bernays in the early Twentieth Century. I generally agree with this but what strikes me that group control strategies were present in America even prior to Bernays.

    Now you have to forgive me in this because it is just an idea I have, a full exposition would require a giant thesis and intensive historical research, but just flying-by-night it strikes me that the various Great Awakenings that convulsed America since independence seem to me a bit like a conscious effort to steer the populace towards submissive goals and the elite trying to control the majority.

    Again a full explanation would require intensive historical research by it seems to me that groups like the Spiritualists and the Mormons could serve as examples of consent manufacture PRIOR to Bernays.

    The question why would that be? To me it seems that the elites when writing up the Constitution gave up too much power so had to create some form of societal control later to limit further loss of power (at least the generation of elites coming after Washington and Jefferson).

    Now, I in no way am somebody that regards people like Washington and Jefferson as mere dead white males. They indeed were Great Men who did much but we also have to remember them as economic animals. They were the owners of society-their lack of sons made them able to share power but like all economic animals they didn’t want to loose ALL their power hence the creation of a religious revival when the Jacksonians threatened too much democracy.

    As such, America has been experiencing created and directed social control much longer than the age of Bernays. Thus in a way, America has also been under conscious social engineering much,much longer than any other state.

    I do not know how far I can extend this but it is a thought I have.

    To the shallow observer, the pictured woman’s skin is like porcelain, her eyes the color of the evening sky. To the world, she looks like perfection. But beneath the silk and smiles, she carries the rot of her father’s Faustian bargain. He has traded his soul for wealth, power and failed concealment of sins, leaving her to inherit the spiritual decay that money and power can’t heal.

    She no doubt spends hours applying layers of makeup, trying to hide the soul-sick pallor and the faint, dark veins that spiderweb across her life. Every compliment she receives no doubt feels like a lie. She sees the same hunger in her father’s eyes when he looks at her – not with love, but with the greed that has damned him.

    One imagines that she occasionally catches her unposed reflection. The beauty remains, but the soul behind it is a little more hollow then before, echoing a little more loudly with the laughter of Mephistopheles. She smiles, a perfect, practiced curve of lips, and locks the mirror away. The ugliness is hers alone to bear, a secret price for a life bought with another’s damnation.

    It was Hitler that declared war on the US and was delighted that his Japanese ally had gunned down 18 year olds. The men on duty at Pearl Harbor were mostly 18-21 year olds that were cleaning the ships while the older sailors had shore leave.

    So spare me any lectures on FDR. I think he was a lousy president but it was Hitler that declared war on the US and made FDR’s dream of ending American isolation come true.

    Hitler recklessly gambled on two fronts and then hoped his Japanese ally would kill enough Anglos to tip the war. What a hero for Whites.

    Stalin was a Georgian who killed over a million people with his collectivist plans. That was after Lenin admitted they didn’t understand economics. Meaning Stalin saw that failures of Marxism and yet continue to push for collectivization. He also made an alliance with Hitler to split Eastern Europe which included marching Christians off to the Gulags. Stalin was not a nationalist. A nationalist would have ended the USSR and freed Georgia. Not a single Soviet state had a majority that wanted to be part of the USSR.

    You are very slow to realize what your pedophile superior and his Jewish genocidal 'advisor' Stephene Miller, have said in public:

    We don't recognize the International Laws, we believe that US is the most powerful state and will do whatever is in her interests.
     
    We are dealing with terrorists and thieves who threw the International laws into the TOILET and flushed it. When was the last time that US and Israel honored the 'international Law'? NEVER. Just look at another arrogant and evil Western state, UK, who thinks she has the right steal Gibraltar from Spain to keep it as hers and use it as a chokepoint against her enemies, because she felt she had enough power to do it, even if that passage was located thousands of miles away from London, so Falkland, but Iran cannot make the terrorists in the west to recognize strait of Hormuz as Iran's territorial water? Time has changed. Iran will make them to recognize the fact.
    On what basis the pedophile Trump has changed the name of Mexican Gulf, into "american gulf"? He is crazy. Why has he changed the name of Zangezur corridor in the Caucasus, thousands of miles away from US into Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) 'trump'? to close the corridor to Iran, meaning closes Iran's passage to Europe. Iran NEVER accept that and soon will be a war over this corridor. Whom does he think he is to rearrange corridors that has nothing to do with this CORRUPT family? He thinks he has power to do whatever he wants, that's why he attacked Iran to STEAL Iranian assets and to partition Iran to benefit his proxy, SAVAGE DOG Israel, killing the Iranian leaders and thousands of the Iranian civilians including children, These are all WAR CRIMES. He is so stupid and arrogant not to realize what he did with the Iranian sailors, in the Indian Ocean, thousand of Kilometer away from the war zone, is WAR CRIMES against humanity. Gullible trump thinks he can get away with it. He will never get away with it and has to PAY for it. Iranian people will NOT allow that to happen.

    The bodies of 84 Iranian sailors killed in a torpedo attack by a US submarine last week in the Indian Ocean are due to be flown home on Friday, Sri Lanka's defence ministry has said.
    The seamen were among 130 thought to be aboard the Iranian warship, the Iris Dena, when it was sunk on 4 March about 40km (25 miles) from Sri Lanka's southern coastline.

     

    Iranian people are determined to make the pedophile class understand that they should have never attacked Iran in order to steal the Iranian resources. Why don't you WORK for your own food and education since you claim your economic system is sound and good. Why do you always need to rob other countries' assets to feed yourself. The latest victim was Venezuela.

    The Jews, it can be argued, have been attacking American society for a hundred years. Undermining the morals of our children; raping our economy and imposing debt slavery on America’s hardworking men and women; stealing our atomic secrets and giving them to the Jewish Soviets running the USSR at the time in the hopes of incinerating America’s children, not yours. The case of the Jews’ war of annihilation against Christian America is brilliantly made by scholar, Dr. E. Michael Jones, in his massive book, The Jewish Revolutionary Spirit. Need proof this book is a must read to understand America today? Amazon, ie, the Jews, have banned it.

    America, thanks to Jewish perfidy, is now a polyglot nightmare about to collapse into internecine as the Democratic Socialists of America openly call for non-whites to rape and slaughter white Christians (the people who made America the beacon to the world in the past) and slaughter them to the point the streets of America are flowing with white Christians’ blood. A clue as to who is ultimately behind these calls to slaughter white Christians in their own country is the silence coming from the Republicans, whose silence is a reflection of the Jewish money that owns the Republican Party like a cheap circus act.

    Americans are now overwhelmingly against these wars of Jewish supremacy in the Middle East and the Ukraine, and they’re coming around to an understanding that they are being waged for Israel, America’s wealthy Jews, and the military-industrial complex, or MIC. The MIC, like today’s Pentagon, is no more patriotic than Jonathan Pollard, and operates with the same motive and goal. The MIC, not surprisingly, is controlled by Jews through BlackRock, Vanguard, and the largely Jewish dark money raping our intellectual property and engineering know-how through private equity funds.

    Israel—and the whole world, and not just Americans, must remember this if any of us are to survive—was responsible for (1) the assassinations of both Jack and Bobby Kennedy; (2) the murder of our sailors on board the Liberty, a Jewish act of war that today’s US military considers it a court-martial offense just to mention; (3) stole the US’ bomb-grade plutonium from a storage repository in Pittsburgh controlled by Jews; (4) stole our nuclear triggers under the direction of Netanyahu and Milchan to hold the world hostage to nuclear Armageddon; and not least, (5) Israel did 9/11 and turned the United States into a police state.

    let's face facts, our house of cards economy, is a ponzi scheme at best. the mighty oz behind the curtain, is really just a little old man and all the smoke and mirrors, are just to dazzle the proles and keep their nose to the grindstone.

    i have been saying from the beginning, that trump has been brought in to destroy the economy. every single policy he has enacted has hurt the working class and enriched the epstein zionist billionaire class, everyone he has put into a position of power has immediately begun looting the government and enriching themselves.

    this is all part of the purposeful destruction of the real economy, especially small businesses, which had once employed more than half of the workforce, before their covid 19 bioweapon attack*, and have been decimated x4 in the last 10 years. that's more than 20% of jobs destroyed along with the lifes works and fortunes, spent building these businesses. add to this the intentional of destruction of as many remaining jobs, through government subsidized a.i. gimmickry and you can begin to see why they are driving the economy off a cliff.

    by creating the next great depression, they will mask the implosion and meltdown of their phony bullshit ponzinomic charade of an economy. they will then loot the whole country and as much of the world as they can get their tentacles wrapped around. this is why they have co-opted cryptocurrency, if it wasn't always just another tulip based economy to begin with. this will allow them to use their invisible emperor's new coin, based on nothing but their mumbo jumbo, to buy up hard assets all over the world.

    and what comes after the great depression? why yet another world war, to end all wars. all of that said, welcome back mike, good to have you here where you belong.

Funny how the flu numbers disappeared while Covid ran rampant. It’s almost as if…..nah, couldn’t be!

    “Darwin implies one objectively and universally binding principle: ‘Thou shalt evolve,’ or, at the very least, ‘Thou shalt not interfere with evolution.’”

    Perhaps we have some common ground here. If the statement is true, it effectively undermines those who criticize “Jewish political and intellectual movements” on evolutionary grounds. If those movements are “evolving,” then, under that logic, one should not interfere with that evolutionary process. To condemn such movements would therefore amount to a form of interference—and, by the same reasoning, a contradiction.

    MacDonald’s use of terms such as “group evolutionary strategy” does not address the fundamental question. The deeper issue is what happens when a system denies objective morality or practical reason. Such a system will either reproduce moral principles in some form or eventually collapse under its own philosophical contradictions.

    For example, consider Michael Ruse’s article, “God Is Dead. Long Live Morality.” https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/belief/2010/mar/15/morality-evolution-philosophy

    “In the quote you offered previously, concerning the human practice of caring for the weak (imbeciles, etc.) Darwin condemned such practice as ‘injurious to the race of man,’ because it enabled ‘weak members of civilised societies [to] propagate their kind.’ Is this not a moral judgment?”

    It is a moral judgment, but not an objectively binding one. Rather, it is a subjective judgment that virtually anyone can invoke for political purposes. In Kantian terms, for a moral principle to be objectively binding, it must be capable of being universalized. For example, torturing or raping children is universally wrong, even though some individuals may claim that such acts are permissible.

    “To oppose deception, one needn’t claim that it’s ‘objectively wrong.’”

    Yes, it must be objectively wrong; otherwise, it is merely a matter of subjective opinion, and your judgment is no more valid than that of someone who reaches the opposite conclusion. If there is no objective moral standard, on what basis can you condemn figures such as Trotsky or Benjamin Netanyahu?

    “That would justify his opposition on evolutionary grounds, right?”

    No, evolution does not provide a mechanism that says an idea is deceptive and is therefore wrong and should not be practiced. Evolution asks a fundamentally different question: Is the behavior advantageous to the survival of the group? If deception has contributed to the survival of “Jewish political and intellectual movements” for centuries, on what evolutionary grounds can you condemn it? I have already given you Darwin’s own words on this point.

    “The only philosophical basis I can think of, on which a Darwinist can write books attempting to persuade other people to regard such conduct as wrong, is if he is proselytizing people to his cause…”

    Again, the Darwinist must assume that his own position is correct and that the person he is criticizing is wrong. But the moment you invoke categories such as “right” and “wrong,” you have entered the realm of morality. And once you make moral judgments, you face the question of whether those judgments are objectively binding.

    This is where the Darwinian paradigm faces a fundamental philosophical problem. If morality is merely the product of evolutionary pressures, rather than an objective standard, then it becomes difficult to explain on what basis one can condemn another person’s beliefs or behavior as genuinely wrong. The system therefore risks becoming metaphysically incoherent: it relies on moral judgments while denying the objective moral foundation that would make those judgments binding.

    “Even though he decried human practices which interfered with the evolutionary process?”

    Just because he condemned certain human practices does not mean that he solved the underlying philosophical problem. In fact, his position made the problem even more incoherent.

    “Why is that not acceptable to you? It gives a rationale for his condemnation which is entirely in keeping with evolutionary theory.”

    Read the entire debate. It’s quite long.

    “I don’t see it as a problem at all. From an evolutionary perspective, it is not MacDonald’s responsibility to consider the interests of anyone but himself.”

    You don’t see it as a problem? Think a little more deeply about it, my man.

    “Their wiles are condemnable, not in any traditional moral sense, but because they interfere with my evolutionary interests and those of my group.”

    You are just making my point: it is survival of the fittest, which MacDonald himself acknowledged. If that is the case, then “Jewish political and intellectual movements” have been doing very well by that standard. They have survived and, by that evolutionary measure, succeeded. So on what basis can you condemn them?

    “I don’t believe there’s any reason for Jews to abandon their political and intellectual movements.”

    Honestly, are you serious? Are you saying there is no reason to condemn Netanyahu’s treatment of the Palestinians, Freud’s stated ambition to bring “the plague” to the West, or Trotsky’s participation in one of the bloodiest revolutionary movements in history? If you truly believe there is no moral basis for condemning such actions, then why have we spent so much time discussing these issues?

    “I believe it’s cyclical. MacDonald describes the process by which Jewish culture imprints itself onto the group’s genome, which passes on traits and characteristics amenable to said culture, which further imprints on the genome. . . etc., etc., etc.”

    Can you flesh out what you mean by “cyclical”? Do you mean genetic or not? Yes, this discussion has gone on for a while, but I have already written extensively about the problems with treating behavior as genetic. Again, see my article on Wilhelm Marr, and perhaps you can comment on it.

    In any case, I need to wrap things up here, since I have other commitments. Again, I appreciate the exchange.

    Perhaps we have some common ground here.

    Quite a bit, actually.

    If the statement [i.e., Darwin implies one objectively and universally binding principle: ‘Thou shalt evolve,’ or, at the very least, ‘Thou shalt not interfere with evolution.] is true, it effectively undermines those who criticize “Jewish political and intellectual movements” on evolutionary grounds. If those movements are “evolving,” then, under that logic, one should not interfere with that evolutionary process.

    Except, of course to further the evolution of his group against competing groups, which is all I’ve been saying.

    “In the quote you offered previously, concerning the human practice of caring for the weak (imbeciles, etc.) Darwin condemned such practice as ‘injurious to the race of man,’ because it enabled ‘weak members of civilised societies [to] propagate their kind.’ Is this not a moral judgment?”

    It is a moral judgment, but not an objectively binding one. Rather, it is a subjective judgment that virtually anyone can invoke for political purposes. In Kantian terms, for a moral principle to be objectively binding, it must be capable of being universalized.

    Not sure why Kant’s definition should be binding here, but I’ll go with it: What about “Though shalt not interfere with evolution” cannot be universalized? Sure, it’s universalization will pit groups, each of which are faithfully following it, against each other, but that doesn’t disqualify it as a universal moral principle.

    To condemn such movements would therefore amount to a form of interference—and, by the same reasoning, a contradiction.

    Throughout your response, it seems you are conflating “oppose” with “condemn” with “treat as morally wrong”.

    From an evolutionary standpoint, the Jews’ approach is laudable. . . it works. Traditional morals (if any) aside, their methods are successful.

    That doesn’t mean an individual or group negatively affected by them can’t oppose them; in fact, from an evolutionary standpoint, it makes all the sense in the world to oppose them.

    Further, if, as part of a group’s opposition to Jewish methods, the opposing group condemns those methods as detrimental to its interests, that’s perfectly consistent. There’s no moral element to this, with the exception of Darwin’s own universal, objectively-binding one, prohibiting interference with evolution, of course. So, no traditionally moral element.

    “I don’t believe there’s any reason for Jews to abandon their political and intellectual movements.”

    Honestly, are you serious? Are you saying there is no reason to condemn Netanyahu’s treatment of the Palestinians, Freud’s stated ambition to bring “the plague” to the West, or Trotsky’s participation in one of the bloodiest revolutionary movements in history?

    I didn’t say I don’t condemn those actions; I said there’s no reason for the Jews to abandon them. Big difference.

    Further, I can consistently condemn those actions, not from a traditionally moral standpoint, but from an evolutionary standpoint: I condemn those actions, because they are detrimental to my group.

    If you truly believe there is no moral basis for condemning such actions, then why have we spent so much time discussing these issues?

    There is no traditionally moral basis, but there is a moral basis derived from Darwin’s prohibition of interference with evolution, of course.

    I’m having trouble understanding how you can ask that question, my man.

    Can you flesh out what you mean by “cyclical”? Do you mean genetic or not?

    I thought I already had. Yes it’s genetic, because genetic tendencies foster Jewish behavior of hostility to the “other”. It is cyclical because said hostility drives the Jewish societal mechanisms, described by MacDonald, mechanisms to isolate the Jewish community, keep the outsider at bay, and most importantly, further foster the aforementioned Jewish genetic tendencies, increasing their depth and breadth throughout the Jewish group genome.

    In summary, I have shown a universal moral principle within Darwin’s theory, one that Darwin himself put forth. I have also shown that, by that single moral principle, there is no contradiction in MacDonald’s “condemnation”of or “opposition” to Jewish group evolutionary strategy, as long as said condemnation/opposition is based on the threat the Jewish strategy holds for the interests of his group.

    Boo hoo.

    So it's worth paying attention.

    Some readers are probably wondering: If the yen is tanking why not just raise interest rates and be done with it.

    But they can't, because they have so much debt that the servicing costs alone would bankrupt the country. So they have to engage in all these Micky Mouse manipulations that create fake demand, like Bessents phony currency intervention which torpedoes the free market they are always praising to high heaven. Hypocrites!

    Face it-- Japan is between a rock and a hard place.

    They can't raise rates and they can't selloff US Treasuries to shore up the yen or the US Treasuries market will suffer cardiac arrest dragging down the whole rotten dollar-based scaffolding that is already hanging by a thread.

    The basic problem is that everyone on Wall Street (all the hedge funds, Private equity and retirement funds) have been making gobs of dough thru interest differential --borrowing money for nothing in Japan and investing in 5% bonds in the US. The whole carry trade is an elitist money making scam that benefits no one except the pedophilia elites who run Wall Street. So when rates go up, all these money-grubbing child molesters will take it in the shorts and the whole filthy machine will grind to a halt.

    Then Israel will have to fight its own bloody wars.

    I think everyone needs to understand the Fed may set the Fed Funds rate, but they do that by following the free market lead. But the media presents this information the other way around – they want you to believe the Fed is almighty and sets interest rates. This is false, if they did then t-bills would be flat lines on the chart. Currently, short T-Bill rates are climbing higher and higher above the Fed Funds rate. In the next several board meetings, if the trend continues, the Fed is going to be forced to follow, as this chart shows:

    The Fed always follows interest rates up, even chimps could set rates.

    We are nearing the end of the Federal Reserve system. The Fed has managed to wreck the US economy through decades of cheap credit. In 113 years from 1913, the Fed is going to face it’s maker, the US bond market is starting to blow up – with no respite. Congress and Trumpenstein have no fiscal discipline. If we are facing decades long climbing interest rates, how does that work out when interest is already the largest budget item?

    What the hell? Please. You'd think we're talking about that negrofied odyssey movie. There's nothing "vibrant" or "dynamic" about japan's stupid ass cartoons. Frankly, even the term "storytelling" is giving them too much credit.

    I've been watching anime since the early 90s. Of approximately 40,000 individual titles ever made, I've sat through about 85% of those. Almost without exception anime is the most infantile trash in the entertainment world outside of some hollywood teen sex-romp movie, and the stereotypes are all true. It's actually been growing worse, following japan's generational descent into a state of things which is almost a carbon copy of the problem in america where everyone under 40 is a fucking moron with no attention span, "triggered" by everything (e.g. anime studios must now pixelate things like blood, vomit and dead mice) and addicted to wanking it all day to pre-pubescent cartoon females.

    Anime "storytelling"? Even at its height it was forgettable schlock, especially in those shows you named. It's now all but vanished in favor of formulaic focus-group tested pabulum pandering to this generation of man children, with an emphasis on high turnover and product placement. In other words again, trash.

    It never had anything for jews to "sanitize" and editing out the PG-13 stuff over FCC considerations in order to air it on american TV isn't censorship. Everything you wrote is just ignorant.

This follows a broader rebound where total inbound visits surpassed 150 million in 2025 (which included travelers from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan alongside 35.17 million strict foreign tourists).

    The above AI blurb does not strip out former Chinklanders going back to Chinkland to visit family, business visits or pre-planned and therefore pre-approved group trips. The number of free range tourists visiting Chinkland is probably only around 10,000 a year. A number well within Chinkland's ability to assign minders for political correctness. LOL!!!

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dds7fHaIu1M

    The average Chinklander is dirt poor and lives on well under $200 a month. The poverty line per the CCP is only 4,000 yuan a year. That is around 333 yuan a month or around $48 dollars. With such a low income there can only be widespread poverty and ... widespread homelessness. LOL!!!

    If you had bothered to read the page I cited (link to it again), you would have noticed that the figure of 150 million tourists came from China’s Minister of Culture and Tourism. Given China’s harsh punishments for corruption, I’ll believe the Minister over your words, the words of a proven liar.

    Further confirmation of the 150 million figure comes directly from China’s government (link): “In 2025, the country recorded more than 150 million inbound tourist visits”. The country is expecting to receive 190 million tourists a year by 2030.

    Thus your fanciful notion (probably based on what would happen in Stinkia), that China has enough police to chase the homeless people away from 150 million tourists, is total nonsense. Yet the tourist videos show no homeless, and some of the American tourists admit to being amazed at seeing none.

It is why we read in the Revelation such a system will be the ultimate affront to God the true lawgiver and no forgiveness will come from him period!

    On this point to I’d point out that a true communism isn’t about the top down but the bottom up meaning what exactly? In the book of Acts chapter 2 one will find how the people sold everything they had and gave to everyone as they had need based on love and community. A family is a family no matter how big a nation is and as such no one should rule over others as some kind of oligarch or elite. Since when should bankers or oligarchs take the place of mothers and fathers to the fourth or even fifth generations who have seen it all. If there are elites in a society is it not our own parents and grandparents to the fourth and even fifth generations yes, next of course, those whom God has called to be His spokesmen like Samuel or Moses or Kong Solomon or yet His own son Christ Jesus.

    @Fact Checker

    I will still explain.

    You can find many seismographic graphs from underground nuclear explosions and how people try to decide if some signal is from a nuke or something else (like an earthquake). We do not need this art, but from those graphs you see that a signal from a nuke can have many different looks. It can have one starting peak, two peaks, be rather symmetric, have a thicker or thinner tail and so on.

    But always you know that it is an impulse response because when a nuke goes off, it goes off fast. Rock does not respond so fast, in the seismic graph the explosion of a nuke is practically instantaneous. (It is not so instantaneous in air, there we can detect phases, like the light signal, the pressure wave, emp, so on, but not in the seismic graph). As it is an impulse, what the seismograph records is an impulse response. It can look very different depending on the ground between the explosion and the measurement point. But we can get around this because we have another impulse: also the plane impact is an impulse.

    Look for a characteristic impulse response, one that you can recognize if is it superimposed to some other signal. That characteristic signal is the plane impact impulse response from WTC1 case. It is NOT the one from WTC2. The one from WTC2 is such a signal that you can superimpose it to some other signal and not recognize if it should be there or not. But the one from WTC1 has a peak at the beginning. This is why you can see if it is superimposed to the WTC1 collapse signal or not.

    I would say, it is not. At least not in a way that stands out in any sense.

    This analysis cannot tell if there was a nuke or not or an explosion or not, but it is fully compatible with a small conventional explosive of 1000 kg TNT.

    What one can say is that there was no big nuke, or if there was a big nuke, the seismic graphs are wrong. Because there is only surface waves, with a big nuke underground there would be deep waves, they are not. Also, the wave would dominate over the falling mass from the building. These seismic graphs refute the big nuke theory, this is why when I once discussed about them with a big nuker, the proposal from this person was that the seismic graphs are fakes. I do not think they are fakes, I am sure there were not big nukes.

    But a very small nuke can be. I still do not see any need for it and these seismographic graphs have not made me change my mind.

    You mentioned that there is lack of energy. I see no lack of energy. Where do you see this lack of energy to motivate small nukes?

    Replies: @Fact Checker

    Seismograms from underground nuclear detonations (test shots) aren’t going to help, and neither are earthquake charts. They’re a very different kettle of fish than the nuclear devices we’re considering here. Strictly speaking, we do not even know if they’re nuclear bombs in any real sense. There’s a fairly big greyzone between outright explosives and pulsed reactors of various types. Looking at the correlations in the USGS data, my best guess is that we’re dealing with an “exploding Lifter”, or LFTR reactor (LFTR stands for liquid flouride thorium salts). The whole design question is interesting in its own right, meeting various objectives including environmental ones whilst also minimising the bang for the buck, if you’ll excuse the expression, i.e. ensuring as small detonations as possible relative to the plasma required to do the job of softening up the building.

    You mistakenly pointed to the seismogram for the North Tower impact event, thinking it depicted a plane hitting the tower and little else. The shape of the chart is “triangular” with heavy skew to the right, so that fits your preconceived notions. In reality, however, the shape is triangular because it includes two separate but slightly overlapping shock events: first a very powerful detonation in the basement, then the airliner impact 9 seconds later.

    Note also that none of these shock events occur at the beginning of the chart where the activity starts to rise, but they occur about midway into the hump for each respective shock. The North Tower basement detonation shock would sit approximately 3 seconds in, at 16 seconds on the time scale in the chart; the plane impact then happens another 9 seconds later, at 25 seconds on the time scale. The activity registered to the left of the shock is just a matter of distribution, which is symmetric left and right. We know that from the South Tower impact chart as well as the Building 7 detonation chart, both of which shock humps are symmetric in the charts.

    This same pattern carries over to the Twin Towers detonation shocks, which are truly huge in comparison. We’re talking 2,400 aus in activity compared to 60 for the airliners hitting the towers, or 80 for the detonations that cut down Building 7. So that’s 30-40x higher, and considering the much-poorer coupling of a semi-open pit detonation compared to shaped charges, the explosive yields must be still far higher than that.

    There is absolutely no way the dropping towers could account for all that activity by sheer concussion or percussion as the building materials hit the ground. Absolutely no way, and adding in a ton of explosives isn’t going to fill that kind of gap even with tight coupling. I’ve discussed the energy gap extensively in many previous comments, especially on Mark Gaffney’s last piece. It is also discussed in Wayne Coste’s paper, but again, as I have pointed out repeatedly, Mr Coste avoids the seismic aspect of that question as it doesn’t fit with his thermite hoax.

    The basement detonations right before the North Tower airliner went in are quite sizable, we’re talking 180 aus of activity showing in the charts. Presumably that’s with tight as coupling as with Building 7, which would imply that about half a ton of explosives were detonated in preparatory cutting. So that chart will give you a pointer as to what a ton of explosives would buy you in terms of seismic activity. It’s not peanuts, for sure, but when compared to the huge humps in the Twin Towers collapse charts, well, it actually is peanuts.

    In Nuclear 9/11, these preparatory blasts are necessary in order to cut a number of major pipe connections and thus prevent the blast from ramifying through the storm- and wastewater systems that feed into the city’s lines. Some of these were five-foot pipes, which explains the need for massive detonations to cut them off. I say this as an aside, as there is confusion about the purpose of those (tightly synced) basement detonations. Nuclear 9/11 has a clear answer, although it is admittedly hard to conclusively prove what precisely blew down there. I’ve given it a good stab, parsing Matt Nelson’s excellent book as well as other sources.

    The impulse-response models you’re talking about may be of academic interest, but really don’t seem to serve much of a purpose as an explanatory tool. I have some background in maths and stats myself, and worked quite a bit on stochastic transfer function models albeit applied to other fields. But I don’t talk like that in here, as it just isn’t necessary for the purpose. My claim is that the charts show what I’ve said they’re showing. You think not, but when I look at your interpretations, they just don’t make sense. You’re looking for things that shouldn’t be there, and when you don’t find it, you draw the wrong conclusions. It’s those glasses again. Take them off and just see the charts for what they are, without all that impulse-response stuff, deep nukes or what have you. Sometimes things are a lot simpler than one expects them to be.

    The seismic evidence is just part of the pile of evidence in support of Nuclear 9/11. In total, I’ve found four mutually independent paths to proving 9/11 was a nuclear event.

    The seismics become relevant in comparing the collapses of the Twin Towers to Building 7, which I have accounted for and which you ought to see by now. It’s totally inescapable as the energy gap is truly colossal and totally outside the conventional ballpark. Since the detonations must be underground with the explosives placed in a very particular place, the only workable option is nuclear. Conventional or thermite just won’t cut it.

    The second proof route also involves the energy gap, but assessed internally (rather than comparatively) in terms of sources and uses of energy in the collapse of the Twin Towers. This is what Wayne Coste also concerns himself with, and he too rightly identifies a massive energy gap. One can argue about the numbers, but not about the existence of a massive deficit that must be filled by a hidden energy source. We’re not talking a ton of dynamite here but hundreds of tons of TNT. Mr Coste “solves” that by invoking the thermite fairy secretly rigging the towers top-to-bottom with 1,900 tons of nanothermite. To normal people, that’s a reductio ad absurdum. But then I suppose that one man’s reductio ad absurdum is another man’s ironclad proof. Or aluminothermically clad proof perhaps.

    The third proof route looks at the dust samples collected by USGS in the week following 9/11, and identifies certain correlation patterns in the concentrations of “nuclear” elements. More specifically, we’re talking a tight correlation cluster including uranium, thorium, lithium, beryllium, and also lithium. We can talk more about this correlation cluster later, what it involves and how it should be interpreted.

    The fourth and final proof route looks at the data on thyroid cancer amongst 9/11 responders and 9/11 survivors. The data reveal massively elevated incidence rates, primarily for responders but also significantly for survivors. Unsurprisingly, the responders that worked on the pile were harder hit than others. Thyroid cancer is, of course, the “nuclear” cancer par excellence, with no other established environmental cause than exposure to radioiodine, a short-lived fission product.

    All in all, I think the evidence supporting Nuclear 9/11 is quite strong, decidedly stronger than for any other competing theory. Also note that the evidence supporting Nuclear 9/11 all comes from official sources, as opposed to the (supposed) thermite evidence which comes from privately-collected dust samples with an iffy chain of custody. It is doubtful whether that could even be considered as “evidence” in any real sense, as it probably wouldn’t even be admissible in a court of law. None of these kinds of objections apply to Nuclear 9/11, but only to the thermite hoax. In fact, it wouldn’t be a hoax if the evidence were legit and kosher, but now it’s not.

Irrelevant for this issue.

    The heresy is that it's related to very culture there.
    As, actually, hinted in the document itself. Result of the attitude towards state institutions resulting itself from long history under others rule. Italians, Hungarians, Ottomans, Austrians, Serbs. All that before the Communists and "diaspora".

    It's nothing peculiar to Croats and Croatia; we can see the same in most ex-Communists countries, but, more importantly, also in all European Mediterranean states.

    Quigley wrote about that in "Tragedy and Hope".
    MacDonald, related, in "Individualism and the Western Liberal Tradition".

    Now, fixing that.......................

    What is related to Croats is , apparently, the deep belief that getting their own state and getting rid of Orthodox minority (by any means necessary) would make all working fine.
    While the former makes sense, the later points to something else.

Why does Donald continue to send his loser SIL, along with his good buddy Witkoff, on hopeless "diplomatic" missions to all the Hot Spots when neither are diplomats and both have become laughing stocks?

    In his first term, when still at FOX, Tucker said that Ivanka and Jared were working against Donald's agenda. He didn't listen. At least Ivanka had enough sense to back away this time. Perhaps she and her father were happy to throw her incompetent husband to the wolves, just to humiliate him. Brady must have sensed something was wrong with Ivanka when he refused to date her and married a South American Super Model instead.

    Aren’t the majority of American males circumcised? That’s one Jewy practice that actually makes sense. The question about football players and marriage is why would anyone marry Taylor Swift. Unlike women, MOST men don’t give a shit how much money a woman has…. Imagine some handsome 25 year old marrying Madonna or Cher now? Oops, I’m sorry a Gen Z or Millennial male is weird enough to have the hots for granny. I never thought Cher nor Madonna were attractive even in their prime but apparently Cher is in her late 70s has a Nigra boyfriend in his late 30’s. Gawd, baby it was stupid enough when you Could Turn Back Time in the late 1980s and sported some young boy toy for publicity, I think Cher then was 40 with a twenty something boyfriend which isn’t bad, but a late 70 something with a nigra late 30 something is pathetic.

    Damn, a nigra will do any White woman or in the case of an incident outside of Atlanta, a nigra tried to rape a pit bull. Either the bravest or horniest man alive. Taylor Swift? What’s the attraction? She can’t sing, she’s below average in looks? At least back in the day we had attractive singers like Linda Ronstadt, Pat Benatar , Debbie Harry, Olivia Newton John, etc., who were easy on the eyes and ears.

    Trinity, I don't give a shit who Taylor Swift marries. And I could care less who Cher or Madonna are banging. But when it comes to the crime of genitally mutilating baby boys, you've obviously been circumcised yourself, and are too blinded by the trauma to realize that you've been sexually damaged. Rabbi Maimonides understood this way back in the 12th century.

    TV news appeals almost entirely to women, as the target audience of the Big Pharma ads proves without a doubt. Hollywood appeals almost entirely to women at the hands of the same Jewish enemy of Jesus Christ. It’s akin to glamour, the hocus-pocus of turning a plain jane like Taylor Swift into a sex idol. The transformation of nothing into gold is almost entirely aimed at women, not that they’re at all lesbians.

    But, the point is this—if an almost ugly plain jane like Taylor Swift can look like a seductive femme fatale with the right makeup, so can all the other plain janes. In the same way, the female brain has its thoughts authored by the Jews on sociopolitical and other matters. In short, democracy is a matter of brainwashing women that’s nearing the point of self-immolation. And, the Karens can’t get enough of it.

    Replies: @Corvinus

    Rufo has to employ outrageous rhetoric to be relevant in the sea of Alt Right grifters. Let us once again use Gemini (hat tip —> the dearly departed res, who used it to break down a claim).

    —The provided quote exhibits several distinct logical fallacies and rhetorical errors by oversimplifying a complex sociological phenomenon into a single, misleading causal relationship.

    The primary fallacies and errors present in the quote include:

    1. Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc (False Cause Fallacy)
    The Claim: The quote asserts that the “statistical outcome” (the rise in the homicide rate) was caused by the “George Floyd Revolution” / BLM.

    The Flaw: This assumes that because event B (a rise in homicides) followed event A (the 2020 protests), event A must have caused event B. Criminologists, sociologists, and epidemiologists point out that the surge in homicides in 2020 was a nationwide phenomenon driven by multiple massive, compounding factors—most notably the COVID-19 pandemic, widespread economic disruption, institutional strain, court closures, and severe disruptions in community and social support systems. Attributing a complex national trend entirely to one social movement commits the post hoc fallacy.

    2. Confusion of Correlation with Causation
    The Claim: The author links the temporal coincidence of civil rights protests with an increase in Black homicide deaths, framing it as the “actual legacy” of the movement.

    The Flaw: While data does show that homicide rates spiked across various demographics (particularly impacting disadvantaged communities already vulnerable to violence) during 2020, correlation does not equal causation. Economists and researchers studying the “George Floyd effect” often look at complex feedback loops—such as drops in community-police trust or localized shifts in policing—but boiling down structural crime data to a partisan or ideological soundbite ignores confounding variables.

    3. Hasty Generalization / Sweeping Generalization
    The Claim: The statement defines the entire “legacy” of a massive social justice movement by a single negative statistical metric.

    The Flaw: A movement like Black Lives Matter or the widespread protests following George Floyd’s murder involved myriad goals, including police accountability, legislative reform, criminal justice transparency, and cultural shifts. Reducing the entirety of that legacy to a single downstream statistical crisis ignores both the intended goals of the movement and other measurable outcomes (such as police reforms passed in various states, increased public awareness, and policy changes within departments).

    4. Association Fallacy (Guilt by Association)
    The Claim: By framing an increase in homicides as the “legacy” of BLM, the quote implies that activists advocating against police brutality are somehow responsible for community violence.

    The Flaw: This association unfairly connects a movement advocating for civil rights and systemic reform to criminal acts committed by unrelated individuals. It treats the social movement as the perpetrator of the crime statistic rather than addressing the actual root cause of urban violence.—

    Replies: @Colin Wright, @dearieme

    Kaiser Bill and his circle wanted to conquer much of Eastern Europe on the Lebensraum argument (Hitler was not the first!). That meant fighting Russia. But Russia was industrialising successfully so they wanted a pretext to start a war before Russia was too strong to attack. They found their pretext in urging Austria to act against Serbia over the Sarajevo assassination.

    They attacked France because she was Russia’s ally – they reckoned to knock France out of the war before Russia had had time to mobilise all its troops. But Kaiser Bill – who had what a historian called a “wayward” intellect – had spent years making a needless enemy of Britain, building a fleet with the express purpose of sinking the Royal Navy in the North Sea. For that reason, plus the reason that Germany had invaded Belgium, Britain sent its army – tiny but professional – to help the French. At the Battle of the Marne the combined army was just strong enough to defeat the Germans and send them retreating back North.

    This sequence was explained by Professor Fischer in the fifties using his access to the Imperial German records held in Potsdam.

    “Judaism, the Jewish religion”

    In order to understand the nature of Judaism, you have to first have a clear concept of what is central to true religion.

    Judaism is not a religion, it is hardcore materialism.

    There is no such thing as the otherworldly in Judaism, there is no heaven, there is no higher life, there is no afterlife, there is no such concept as Nirvana. There is no sense of something better, other than in material terms.
    Judaism is devoid of idealism-pessimism which is central to all other real religions, there is no such thing as an idea of sin, repentance/metanoia.
    There is no concept of asceticism (denial of earthly things).
    There is no idea of the world being evil, there is no central idea of suffering.
    There is no compassion, there is no caritas(charity).

    In fact, Judaism is the only so called religion which starts with a claim on land and resources, that is, material pursuits.

    Judaism is an expression of hardcore materialist opportunists, truth has no significance, what is true is that what is opportune.

    This is also the reason why so many Jews are in the tech business and are priests of trans-humanism. The Judaist utopia is hardcore materialism, supremacy is the supremacy of materialistic supremacy. The reason why the Jews have the US in its grip is because US Americans have become severe materialists too, and Americans have been exporting their increasingly hardcore materialism all over the world. US hegemony, is ever more hegemony of Judaist hardcore materialism. Western Protestants, and even more Protestants in the US these days are not Christians too, they have become Judaists, Protestantism nowadays is Judaism, the God of Protestants is the God who delivers them material prosperity. The US has become a godless country, it serves the Judaist god of materialism and the spoils of thievery. It is about devoid of anything which is true religion.

    Oh geez, for instance do you really think the commies murdered 15 million people in 8 years from 1945 to 1953 and murdered 7 million people post-Stalin? Don’t believe everything you read especially if it is a vanity publisher.

    Remember the book was published in 1990 which was kind of a special year. It was the year where a lot of people associated with communist party decided to become criminals to loot Russia and the other states so they threw out incredible numbers and basically lied about history so as to cause a distraction to cover their criminal activity. Literally, for instance, no historian after 1990 believes 15 million people were murdered from 1945 to 1953 and 68 million were murdered from 1917 to 1987.

    Nevertheless here is an interesting fact: huge long-term historically-unprecedented demographic loses came AFTER 1990!

    To put your numbers in perspective, the Ukraine recovered its population after the thirties famine by 1940 and its WWII losses by 1956 but in 2026 it has never reached its 1990 population. The losses in the early 21st century were so staggering that no official independent Ukrainian census has been ever carried out

    The same goes for the Baltic states-WWII loses were quickly made up BUT their population decline after 1990 was horrendous-it might take two centuries for the Baltic states to reach their 1990 population.

    Oh we can quibble-quabble about this till the cows come home but one of us is wrong and the other is right. How can we resolve this?

    Since you are a demographer, I have some (quite easy) homework for you:

    please give me the following:

    the population of the following:
    Ukraine, Armenia (an example of a Soviet state that did not experience the war), Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia
    IN
    1920, 1930, 1940, 1960 (lets skip the seventies and eighties), 1990, 2010, 2026

    Quite easy to do actually.

    Doing that you will notice:
    extra deaths throughout the Twentieth Century due to political repressions and wars but quite quick recovery in the years afterwards
    AND
    gigantic black hole AFTER 1990 with the populations of each of these countries

    That idiot who you cite who wrote that book in 1990 was part of an organized plan to make hoax history so as to enable criminal activity. There were population losses due to political repression and war in the 20th Century but overall there was a population increase. The great demographic catastrophe came in the 21st Century AFTER communism.

    You can stop reading now because you have an homework assignment, quick, quick, times a-wasting!

    Remember give me the population of:
    Ukraine, Armenia, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia
    in
    1920, 1930, 1940, 1960, 1990, 2010, 2026

    Quite easy (wish my stats assignments were so elementary). Get back to me when you finish it-should take you less than an hour.

    I am reminded of an investigation of London’s Newgate Prison, carried out around 1729. Many inmates were in jail for debt and were cruelly treated by staff.

    Rufo has to employ outrageous rhetoric to be relevant in the sea of Alt Right grifters. Let us once again use Gemini (hat tip —> the dearly departed res, who used it to break down a claim).

    —The provided quote exhibits several distinct logical fallacies and rhetorical errors by oversimplifying a complex sociological phenomenon into a single, misleading causal relationship.

    The primary fallacies and errors present in the quote include:

    1. Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc (False Cause Fallacy)
    The Claim: The quote asserts that the "statistical outcome" (the rise in the homicide rate) was caused by the "George Floyd Revolution" / BLM.

    The Flaw: This assumes that because event B (a rise in homicides) followed event A (the 2020 protests), event A must have caused event B. Criminologists, sociologists, and epidemiologists point out that the surge in homicides in 2020 was a nationwide phenomenon driven by multiple massive, compounding factors—most notably the COVID-19 pandemic, widespread economic disruption, institutional strain, court closures, and severe disruptions in community and social support systems. Attributing a complex national trend entirely to one social movement commits the post hoc fallacy.

    2. Confusion of Correlation with Causation
    The Claim: The author links the temporal coincidence of civil rights protests with an increase in Black homicide deaths, framing it as the "actual legacy" of the movement.

    The Flaw: While data does show that homicide rates spiked across various demographics (particularly impacting disadvantaged communities already vulnerable to violence) during 2020, correlation does not equal causation. Economists and researchers studying the "George Floyd effect" often look at complex feedback loops—such as drops in community-police trust or localized shifts in policing—but boiling down structural crime data to a partisan or ideological soundbite ignores confounding variables.

    3. Hasty Generalization / Sweeping Generalization
    The Claim: The statement defines the entire "legacy" of a massive social justice movement by a single negative statistical metric.

    The Flaw: A movement like Black Lives Matter or the widespread protests following George Floyd’s murder involved myriad goals, including police accountability, legislative reform, criminal justice transparency, and cultural shifts. Reducing the entirety of that legacy to a single downstream statistical crisis ignores both the intended goals of the movement and other measurable outcomes (such as police reforms passed in various states, increased public awareness, and policy changes within departments).

    4. Association Fallacy (Guilt by Association)
    The Claim: By framing an increase in homicides as the "legacy" of BLM, the quote implies that activists advocating against police brutality are somehow responsible for community violence.

    The Flaw: This association unfairly connects a movement advocating for civil rights and systemic reform to criminal acts committed by unrelated individuals. It treats the social movement as the perpetrator of the crime statistic rather than addressing the actual root cause of urban violence.—

    Real jewish antizionism exist. It's not performative for goyim like some people claim. It has very long historical origin.

    Miscegenation (1/2, 1/4, 1/8) jews are more likely to be antizionist than pure jews. This is especially prevalent in russia where the state does a good job (far better than in the west) at convincing that they are russian, not "israeli." Also true in "axis of evil" countries in general, like iran, belarus, china. Here often jewish blood doesnt mean much due to state assimilation pressure.

    Jewish antizionism is an extremely minority position. Pure jews can be antizionist, even pure ashkenazim can. There are two groups: ultraorthodox naturei karta, and the secular ones. The latter are mostly non-practicing and is often losing their jewish identity, most are atheist or agnostic.

    Younger jews are more likely to be antizionist, which mirrors younger goyim. This proves that you can coach antizionism on jewish kids. The primary source of zionist brainwashing is those "birthright trips." That is an institutionalized brainwashing to mold young jews into parasites of their own country to prioritize israel. Some jews who have been on these trips managed to free themselves of the brainwashing, but the number is very minuscule. There's far more illiberal dissidents than these, suggesting that this brainwashing is extremely effective.

    It is important to know that israel is paradise for jews, not only because it is apartheid supremacist, but also a welfare state built from stealing western tax money. To go against this arrangement means a jew need to have very high empathy of goyim. Just like vegan who treat animal like human, antizionist jews is therefore an extreme minority the same ways vegans are minority in our society.

    Therefore goyim who support this arrangement of "israel must be a jewish state "is actually the biggest problem/traitor, not jews. Jews just like an utopia built from parasitizing dumb goyim, human naturally seeks the most comfort. The question is why goyim are dumb? If someone give you money why should you refuse?

Larry Johnson, the self-styled "well-informed analyst," asserts that the total is 100,000 over the last 40 odd years. However, according to The Lancet, the figure is likely closer to 300,000, while Ralph Nader has estimated it to be over 600,000. Heaven only knows where Johnson sourced his numbers.

    "A conspiracy is a secret plan by a group of people to do something illegal, harmful, or bad. It means two or more persons join forces in secret to commit a crime or trick others.

    Do you think this does not occur in your street at least once a week? "
     
    A conspiracy does not necessarily have to be criminal It could just be an attempt at sleight of hand, misdirection if you will, to swing someones point of view.

    On the low street level they only engage in acts which have already been thought of by society to be illegal, harmful or bad, that is the nature of low level crime. On the highest level they are also intelligent and creative, they invent means which are yet to be qualified as conspiracy in the sense of illegality, harmful, subversive and ‘bad’.

    In a thousand years probably the whole of contemporary society will be seen as conspirators in crime and what is bad.

    So, if you want to be subtle and sophisticated in order to obfuscate, there is always the possibility of pushing it further.

    To educate yourself might mean to defer to authorities in conspiratorial crime.

Why does Donald continue to send his loser SIL, along with his good buddy Witkoff, on hopeless “diplomatic” missions to all the Hot Spots when neither are diplomats and both have become laughing stocks?

    In his first term, when still at FOX, Tucker said that Ivanka and Jared were working against Donald’s agenda. He didn’t listen. At least Ivanka had enough sense to back away this time. Perhaps she and her father were happy to throw her incompetent husband to the wolves, just to humiliate him. Brady must have sensed something was wrong with Ivanka when he refused to date her and married a South American Super Model instead.

    ...because the Ukrainians had bitter memories about the Jewish role in the Holodomar, or something to that effect.
     
    I check out RT routinely, and there is a strong undercurrent there regarding the 'glorification of Nazis', by former Soviet satellite states, like the Baltics and Ukraine, in particular.

    I think it is this lingering hostility over the harsh repressions and pogroms of the Bolshevik / Soviet period, that is driving the hatred between the Eastern Europe vs. Russia. And it's all basically over 'the narrative', of the Red Army having "liberated" Eastern Europe from the ultimate evil, 'the Nazis'.

    The problem is, that it isn't as cut and dry as Russia, (and Hollywood), would like to have it. WWII was not, (all the Hollywood movies notwithstanding), a conflict between pure good, (the Allies) vs. pure evil (the 'Nazis').

    https://www.rt.com/russia/644116-ukraine-rebury-nazi-collaborator/

    The millions of men, (Russian, Ukrainian and others) who lost family in the Holodomor and gulags, and fought the Red Army, were not 'traitors to Russia', and 'evil Nazis', as Russia would have us believe. But Russia, for some reason, remains very strident on this issue. So much so, that I think they'd be willing to go WWIII, just to protect that (absurd) narrative, of the Red Army as great, heroic "liberators". (They weren't ; )

    For the record, I support Russia in its current conflict with ZOG. 100%

    And that is the reason I bring this up, [hopefully, not too far ot) because both the Russian people, and the Eastern European people, suffered unimaginably during that Jewish supremacist orchestrated madness from 1914 to 1945, and beyond..

    It's time for all the Christians over there, to stop hating each other, over past, nationalistic, parochial hostilities, and finally, finally see who their real enemies have been all along. Zelinsky the Jew, (along with ((NATO)), is doing all he can to slaughter as many Ukrainian and Russian young men as possible. Ukrainians and Russians and everyone else over there, should not play into their hands, any longer.

    First off, please Russia, stop insisting that all the men who fought the Red Army, were evil Nazis.

    That is absurd, and is counter-productive.

    Let them honor the victims of the Holodomor, and their fallen heroes, as they see fit. It is not done as a slight against modern Russia. I, (for one) want very much to see rapprochement, and for Germany to start buying Russian gas, and so forth. That is my hope.

    And the only ones I see who would be opposed to that, are the supremacist, war-loving Jews, and a few Russians and Europeans who want to cling to ultra-nationalist hatreds from those ((orchestrated)) 20th century wars.

  • A cratering yen has set off alarms on Wall Street and in financial centers around the world. If the Bank of Japan sells its behemoth stockpile US Treasuries (now exceeding $1.2 trillion) to support its sagging currency, the US bond market could go into a nosedive dragging the global economy off a cliff. That is...
  • In order to save the Yen, the creation of a treaty between China, Japan and Russia, will design a 99 year lease for some portion of southern Sakhalin island. This to migrate Tokyo metro persons under 40 years of age to (south) Sakhalin. For their part, the Chinese would construct a city for the migrants. A “city-state” of North-Japan would mirror the Vatican city state. No military what-so-ever. The USA would facilitate, act as catalyst promoting Japanese naval agreements with China and Taiwan. Example US Naval FECOM to relinquish all official and unofficial agreements with Taiwan. Open invitations for political, military responsibilities and economic realignments between the three treaty partners would proceed unhindered by the five eyes intelligence networks. Fukushima radionuclides contamination at sea-level and into the Tokyo metro area will require international investments of approximately (loans) 100 to 151 trillion yen only if relocation is permitted and not attempts at domestic infrastructure projects aka decontamination but solely aimed at Sakhalin. Land lease costs would be reduced if all three navies co-operated leaving FECOM to redirect it’s naval capabilities to other allies in the region and beyond e.g., Aussies, Philippines New Zealand among other island states.

    With capital inflows from West Asia, Chinese and Russian partners they would all agree to covert to Yen so as to fund the project, creating some demand. The objective would be to find a financial instrument. ASIDE: Wall Street schemers are now foaming at the mouth… that re-invests profits locally rather than sending them back to West Asia, Russia or China. A 99-year lease i.e., foreign-owned Sakhalin city-state would still need to function like a province of Japan but again, reinvest its profits locally.

    In conclusion, the already stretched US Navy’s Indo Pacific Command could reduce its obligations and redeploy elsewhere. Japan’s geriatric population will not be further burdened with genetic anomalies that surface in future generations.. China would rather deal with Japanese delegates and naval forces then suffer gyrations on the high seas with FECOM- any day. The Yen would stop free falling into disaster and last but not least reduce the likelihood of a new flash-points e.g., Taiwanese issue, piracy or freedom of passage. Passages by strengthening the Law of The Sea Convention. Both Russia and China may see our balance of power re configurations as a step in the direction of true diplomacy. They may in turn cut a generous deal with the USA over Arctic mining rights.

    The North Tower impact chart* does not reflect a "simple" event but a "complex" or "combined" one. It involves a large detonation in the basement, which comes first, and then also the airliner impacting. These two events come 9 seconds apart. We know this as they were even recorded on audio tape in a nearby conference room.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc1impact.jpg

    You'll also see that the total activity in the North Tower impact chart amounts to about 4x that of the South Tower impact. If you go through the motions, you'll arrive at around 240 aus of activity for the North Tower. It goes without saying that there is a lot more going on there than just the airliner hitting the tower. The airliner accounts for only about one-quarter of the activity that registered.

    The South Tower impact chart, on the other hand, shows a "clean" event, namely the airliner impacting the tower. The vertical steel transmits the signal down to bedrock, which then conveys it to PAL. The very same mechanism is in effect for the North Tower impact chart as well, but like I said there is more going on down in the basement about 9 seconds before the airliner hits.

    So clearly they carried out some preparatory explosions that were supposed to be synced with the airliner striking, but ended up going off 9 seconds early. This is a key piece of evidence against the official story of the towers collapsing purely from impacts and ensuing fires.

    * Jim Hoffman's website is timing out (not responding) right now, so I can't view the charts whilst writing this. If the links are dead at your end as well, they will hopefully come back to life before long.

    I will still explain.

    You can find many seismographic graphs from underground nuclear explosions and how people try to decide if some signal is from a nuke or something else (like an earthquake). We do not need this art, but from those graphs you see that a signal from a nuke can have many different looks. It can have one starting peak, two peaks, be rather symmetric, have a thicker or thinner tail and so on.

    But always you know that it is an impulse response because when a nuke goes off, it goes off fast. Rock does not respond so fast, in the seismic graph the explosion of a nuke is practically instantaneous. (It is not so instantaneous in air, there we can detect phases, like the light signal, the pressure wave, emp, so on, but not in the seismic graph). As it is an impulse, what the seismograph records is an impulse response. It can look very different depending on the ground between the explosion and the measurement point. But we can get around this because we have another impulse: also the plane impact is an impulse.

    Look for a characteristic impulse response, one that you can recognize if is it superimposed to some other signal. That characteristic signal is the plane impact impulse response from WTC1 case. It is NOT the one from WTC2. The one from WTC2 is such a signal that you can superimpose it to some other signal and not recognize if it should be there or not. But the one from WTC1 has a peak at the beginning. This is why you can see if it is superimposed to the WTC1 collapse signal or not.

    I would say, it is not. At least not in a way that stands out in any sense.

    This analysis cannot tell if there was a nuke or not or an explosion or not, but it is fully compatible with a small conventional explosive of 1000 kg TNT.

    What one can say is that there was no big nuke, or if there was a big nuke, the seismic graphs are wrong. Because there is only surface waves, with a big nuke underground there would be deep waves, they are not. Also, the wave would dominate over the falling mass from the building. These seismic graphs refute the big nuke theory, this is why when I once discussed about them with a big nuker, the proposal from this person was that the seismic graphs are fakes. I do not think they are fakes, I am sure there were not big nukes.

    But a very small nuke can be. I still do not see any need for it and these seismographic graphs have not made me change my mind.

    You mentioned that there is lack of energy. I see no lack of energy. Where do you see this lack of energy to motivate small nukes?

    Seismograms from underground nuclear detonations (test shots) aren't going to help, and neither are earthquake charts. They're a very different kettle of fish than the nuclear devices we're considering here. Strictly speaking, we do not even know if they're nuclear bombs in any real sense. There's a fairly big greyzone between outright explosives and pulsed reactors of various types. Looking at the correlations in the USGS data, my best guess is that we're dealing with an "exploding Lifter", or LFTR reactor (LFTR stands for liquid flouride thorium salts). The whole design question is interesting in its own right, meeting various objectives including environmental ones whilst also minimising the bang for the buck, if you'll excuse the expression, i.e. ensuring as small detonations as possible relative to the plasma required to do the job of softening up the building.

    You mistakenly pointed to the seismogram for the North Tower impact event, thinking it depicted a plane hitting the tower and little else. The shape of the chart is "triangular" with heavy skew to the right, so that fits your preconceived notions. In reality, however, the shape is triangular because it includes two separate but slightly overlapping shock events: first a very powerful detonation in the basement, then the airliner impact 9 seconds later.

    Note also that none of these shock events occur at the beginning of the chart where the activity starts to rise, but they occur about midway into the hump for each respective shock. The North Tower basement detonation shock would sit approximately 3 seconds in, at 16 seconds on the time scale in the chart; the plane impact then happens another 9 seconds later, at 25 seconds on the time scale. The activity registered to the left of the shock is just a matter of distribution, which is symmetric left and right. We know that from the South Tower impact chart as well as the Building 7 detonation chart, both of which shock humps are symmetric in the charts.

    This same pattern carries over to the Twin Towers detonation shocks, which are truly huge in comparison. We're talking 2,400 aus in activity compared to 60 for the airliners hitting the towers, or 80 for the detonations that cut down Building 7. So that's 30-40x higher, and considering the much-poorer coupling of a semi-open pit detonation compared to shaped charges, the explosive yields must be still far higher than that.

    There is absolutely no way the dropping towers could account for all that activity by sheer concussion or percussion as the building materials hit the ground. Absolutely no way, and adding in a ton of explosives isn't going to fill that kind of gap even with tight coupling. I've discussed the energy gap extensively in many previous comments, especially on Mark Gaffney's last piece. It is also discussed in Wayne Coste's paper, but again, as I have pointed out repeatedly, Mr Coste avoids the seismic aspect of that question as it doesn't fit with his thermite hoax.

    The basement detonations right before the North Tower airliner went in are quite sizable, we're talking 180 aus of activity showing in the charts. Presumably that's with tight as coupling as with Building 7, which would imply that about half a ton of explosives were detonated in preparatory cutting. So that chart will give you a pointer as to what a ton of explosives would buy you in terms of seismic activity. It's not peanuts, for sure, but when compared to the huge humps in the Twin Towers collapse charts, well, it actually is peanuts.

    In Nuclear 9/11, these preparatory blasts are necessary in order to cut a number of major pipe connections and thus prevent the blast from ramifying through the storm- and wastewater systems that feed into the city's lines. Some of these were five-foot pipes, which explains the need for massive detonations to cut them off. I say this as an aside, as there is confusion about the purpose of those (tightly synced) basement detonations. Nuclear 9/11 has a clear answer, although it is admittedly hard to conclusively prove what precisely blew down there. I've given it a good stab, parsing Matt Nelson's excellent book as well as other sources.

    The impulse-response models you're talking about may be of academic interest, but really don't seem to serve much of a purpose as an explanatory tool. I have some background in maths and stats myself, and worked quite a bit on stochastic transfer function models albeit applied to other fields. But I don't talk like that in here, as it just isn't necessary for the purpose. My claim is that the charts show what I've said they're showing. You think not, but when I look at your interpretations, they just don't make sense. You're looking for things that shouldn't be there, and when you don't find it, you draw the wrong conclusions. It's those glasses again. Take them off and just see the charts for what they are, without all that impulse-response stuff, deep nukes or what have you. Sometimes things are a lot simpler than one expects them to be.

    The seismic evidence is just part of the pile of evidence in support of Nuclear 9/11. In total, I've found four mutually independent paths to proving 9/11 was a nuclear event.

    The seismics become relevant in comparing the collapses of the Twin Towers to Building 7, which I have accounted for and which you ought to see by now. It's totally inescapable as the energy gap is truly colossal and totally outside the conventional ballpark. Since the detonations must be underground with the explosives placed in a very particular place, the only workable option is nuclear. Conventional or thermite just won't cut it.

    The second proof route also involves the energy gap, but assessed internally (rather than comparatively) in terms of sources and uses of energy in the collapse of the Twin Towers. This is what Wayne Coste also concerns himself with, and he too rightly identifies a massive energy gap. One can argue about the numbers, but not about the existence of a massive deficit that must be filled by a hidden energy source. We're not talking a ton of dynamite here but hundreds of tons of TNT. Mr Coste "solves" that by invoking the thermite fairy secretly rigging the towers top-to-bottom with 1,900 tons of nanothermite. To normal people, that's a reductio ad absurdum. But then I suppose that one man's reductio ad absurdum is another man's ironclad proof. Or aluminothermically clad proof perhaps.

    The third proof route looks at the dust samples collected by USGS in the week following 9/11, and identifies certain correlation patterns in the concentrations of "nuclear" elements. More specifically, we're talking a tight correlation cluster including uranium, thorium, lithium, beryllium, and also lithium. We can talk more about this correlation cluster later, what it involves and how it should be interpreted.

    The fourth and final proof route looks at the data on thyroid cancer amongst 9/11 responders and 9/11 survivors. The data reveal massively elevated incidence rates, primarily for responders but also significantly for survivors. Unsurprisingly, the responders that worked on the pile were harder hit than others. Thyroid cancer is, of course, the "nuclear" cancer par excellence, with no other established environmental cause than exposure to radioiodine, a short-lived fission product.

    All in all, I think the evidence supporting Nuclear 9/11 is quite strong, decidedly stronger than for any other competing theory. Also note that the evidence supporting Nuclear 9/11 all comes from official sources, as opposed to the (supposed) thermite evidence which comes from privately-collected dust samples with an iffy chain of custody. It is doubtful whether that could even be considered as "evidence" in any real sense, as it probably wouldn't even be admissible in a court of law. None of these kinds of objections apply to Nuclear 9/11, but only to the thermite hoax. In fact, it wouldn't be a hoax if the evidence were legit and kosher, but now it's not.

    The history of the American experiment is as complicated as the Founding Fathers were complicated.

    No one can dispute that democratic institutions unprecedented in world history, except save Switzerland, evolved due to independence two-hundred and fifty years ago but remember men like Washington and Jefferson were self-contradictory;

    -being children of the Enlightenment they encouraged secularism, voting for offices, non-hereditary institutions etc. yet at the same time they were plantation-owning oligarchs thus they had incentive to limit the sharing of power they themselves encouraged.

    That America developed democratic institution in the first place I feel might have been caused by the happy fact the Founders had few sons. Washington's balls didn't work due childhood sickness and Jefferson had only grown-up daughters and too infatuated with his dusky GFs to marry again and raise legitimate sons.

    If they had more sons they would need to guarantee some source of income for their younger sons (the oldest would have gotten the plantation) as is wont of aristocratic governments throughout history.

    The American government would thus be reserved for younger sons of oligarchs and America as a country would have developed as a typical Latin American country with the latifundia class dominating every single institution.

    However, not really needing to care about guaranteeing a future for a bunch of sons that did not exist the American elite could afford to be generous and share (at least for a bit).

    It is interesting what happened fifty years later in the Age of Jackson. Jacksonian Democracy entailed that yeoman class would reach the highest echelons of political power and with political power would eventually come economic power.

    What happened next? Roughly about the same time that the elites were threatened with marginalization came the creation of weird cults like the pre-JW's , the Spiritualists, the Mormons etc. Each of these cults stressed the importance of living submissively so as to be fit for the next world. Overnight a society that was highly secular developed brand new spiritual creeds stressing the next world instead of living in this world.

    Weird that America lived through this not only once but several times when class tensions became very prominent. Weird also that America is basically the only European/European-derived country that undergoes this process, time and time again.

    I would argue that these bizarre cults, if not created by the elites were at least encouraged by the elites so as to develop a submissive, non-alcoholic workforce. After all, Las Vegas mafiosos knew that Mormons made the best casino employees, unlike Italians and Jews, they didn't pilfer money but were absolutely honest and submissive as the cash rolled in.

    Anyways to skip a bunch of time and a bunch of other stuff and to make a long story short-

    Going into the Twentieth Century, it is fairly clear that as I have stated before:

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    After all, Edward Bernays stated this was so and he was actually quite proud of contributing to it.

    Most people are familiar with Edward Bernays because a man named Noam Chomsky (remember him?) wrote thick critiques of American society using Edward Bernays as the template.

    Needless to say we now know those thick critiques were a way of channeling discussions and Noam (although a clever man and a great scientist) was controlled opposition all along. Clever isn't it?

    So to reiterate: Who was Ed Bernays? He contributed to modern societal opinion control but nobody really knew that except that Chomsky suddenly discussed him and thus people wanting change started to talk about Bernays but since Chomsky was the person who mentioned him initially, a discussion of Bernays and societal control was filtered through a Chomsky lens...and Chomsky...was controlled opposition. Again, very clever!

    I still stand by my assertion;

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

Or would you?

    The fact that Thomas Jefferson liked his sugar brown is again verified by qualified academic historians but unfortunately some immature people think it is funny in some way. Sure some people dispute Tom's relationship with Sally but just between you and me-if you owned oh say.... Rhianna ...wouldn't you at least feel her up? Remember, we're talking about Rhianna here and we're talking about a lonely fifty-year old man here, things just naturally happen....after all it's Rhianna.

    I think that George Washington unable to produce semen and Thomas Jefferson and Rhianna being an item is something we should all value as part of the gorgeous American experience despite some people's mind being in the gutter.

    The problem of Chomsky being a bona fide CommIntern psychopath is bit negated by him working at MIT and hobnobbing with the likes of Epstein and the head of the CIA. Obviously the head of the CIA doesn't think Chomsky is a bona fide CommIntern psychopath, it's actually more like that tv show from the fifties; "I was a Communist for the FBI".

    Well, there you have it a perfect explanation of what St. John saw two thousand years ago about our last economic system where all buying and selling will be done by a mark in either ones hand or forehead without which you will be locked out. A mark that could very well be this QR Code which is surfacing everywhere as a new kind of ID and payment system all rolled up into one.

    Thank you Miro23 you hit the nail perfectly on the head with this comment of yours albeit the reasons for such a system isn't about "Social Justice." Thats a smokescreen. They or rather who will ultimtly want your obeisance to it as the ultimate benefactor. One must take into consideration the words of Satan to Christ, 'all the kingdoms of the world are mine, and I can give it to anyone i wish, so if you will but bow down to me and worship me all will be yours.' Computer tech has evolved to the point where Satan really will rule over the conscience of the entirety of the human race. It is why we read in the Revelation such a system will be the ultimate affront to God the true lawgiver and no forgiveness will come from him period!

    On this point to I'd point out that a true communism isn't about the top down but the bottom up meaning what exactly? In the book of Acts chapter 2 one will find how the people sold everything they had and gave to everyone as they had need based on love and community. A family is a family no matter how big a nation is and as such no one should rule over others as some kind of oligarch or elite. Since when should bankers or oligarchs take the place of mothers and fathers to the fourth or even fifth generations who have seen it all. If there are elites in a society is it not our own parents and grandparents to the fourth and even fifth generations yes, next of course, those whom God has called to be His spokesmen like Samuel or Moses or Kong Solomon or yet His own son Christ Jesus.
    But woe what an evil world we live in with lies and liars everywhere. What a frightening mess and look they arrive out of our Universities and Colleges to show us the way to our enslavement.

    I stopped reading Instapundit because of, not so much Reynolds, some of the posters there falling into that category. I do not remember Glenn Reynolds ever mentioning Steve Sailer. Sailer, Reynolds, Ron Unz and me are late Boomers, a group that has been labeled "Generation Jones". The Wikipedia article on them says they are less optimistic and more cynical than the early Boomers. We are less likely to think a leftist revolution would lead to a good outcome and more of us ended up on the political right.

    I would be interested to hear what Reynolds and Sailer think of the rise of the democratic socialists. AOC is now saying Woke 1 was crazy. The Democrats have moved from saying defund the police and abolish the border to saying stop the rising prices and stop the stupid Iran war. This is more effective because prices are rising and the Iran war is stupid. Their economic solutions will not work since socialism does not work. We need to move away from our corrupt crony capitalist system towards a more free market economy.

    Democratic socialism goes back to the nineteen thirties. Three versions of socialism arose then: the national socialism of Hitler, the international socialism of Stalin and the democratic socialism of Roosevelt. Only our version of socialism is really still around. All three versions, in addition to having expensive welfare states and interference in the economy, suffered from high levels of military spending and imperial overstretch.

    Before there was CGI and AI, special effects for movies had to be mechanically created.

    It was incredible what technicians could do just with their personal creativity.

    As an example, below is the amazing tornado scene created from scratch for the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz:

    https://youtu.be/fs1mAGp1xs4?is=lZSaMInJExPDZ5fP

    The film had many special effects that seem very primitive now with our modern techniques of film production. The tornado that sweeps Dorothy’s family house away in the movie was actually a 35 foot-long muslin stocking that was spun around among a miniature dusty set of the Kansas farms and fields. To show Dorothy’s house falling into the Land of Oz, a miniature house was dropped from reasonable height onto a sky painted onto a canvas placed flat on the stage floor, then the film was reversed to make it appear as if the house was falling from the sky and towards the camera.

    Sorry to break it to you, but Christ didn't 'found' shit.

    Jesus was one of many apocalyptic Jewish preachers roaming the region in the first century, and he saw his movement--if you can even call it that--as firmly within the Jewish tradition.

    The so-called 'church' was allegedly founded by Peter, but it was really Paul who did the heavy lifting.

    I guess some people argue that Christ founded the church based on his teachings, but those teachings aren't the essence of Christianity.

    Christianity's fundamental doctrine is that of vicarious redemption. In other words, Jesus had to be executed in order to absolve humanity of its 'original sin'.

    Of course, that's an utterly immoral proposition, but either way, you can't 'found' a church based on events which haven't yet transpired.

    Reading these seismic charts is very much an exercise in statistical inference. There is a "data-generating process" (DGP) underneath, which gives rise to the data as displayed in the charts. The art of reading these charts is to make the best possible inferences about the nature of scope of the underlying DGP. I think that can be done without extensive training in seismology, so the "expertise" in question does not strike me as entirely necessary.

    I take as the point of departure the one chart that connects to a sharply defined and known shock, namely the impact shock for the South Tower. This chart consists of three parts: first noise, then a well-defined activity signal, and then noise again. A reasonable level for the signal-to-noise bar will be 5 units of amplitude according to the right-hand scale on the chart. Anything above 5 will be "signal"; anything below it (except the odd chance spike) will be "noise".

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc2impact.jpg

    The signal begins at 17-18 seconds, and ends 21-22 seconds on the time scale. The activity lasts about 4 seconds with an average amplitude of about 15 units (let's call them au, for "amplitude units"). The total amount of activity in the event is thus about 15au x 4s = 60 aus. That's a proxy for the amount of activity as recorded at the station. The amount of activity at the origin will depend on a host of other things including the conditions and paths of transmission, the frequency distribution of the activity at origin, etc.

    In this case, it is possible to at least roughly estimate the amount of activity as we know the approximate speed and mass of the aircraft that went in. So for this particular transmission it is possible to relate the approximate energy of the generative event to the activity seen in the chart. It's not a terribly meaningful exercise though, as the events we're interested in don't compare directly in any case.

    What's important to note is that the above-noise activity hump is symmetric; it is neither skewed to the left nor to the right. This alone pretty much disproves the preconceived notion that a sharp shock like a plane impact or a detonation would show up as a heavily right-skewed hump in the seismic chart. There is absolutely no indication of that, and I'll reiterate that this chart is based on known events not mere inferences about what we think is likely to have happened.

    Looking at the Building 7 chart, which reflects a complex event consisting of an initial detonation shock as the steel is cut, followed by a brief lull and then another bout of activity as the building crushes itself to the ground. In this case, we're dealing with a nearly-known event as the probability of controlled demolition is very high. That said, it is not a known event as with the South Tower plane impact.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc7level.jpg

    Applying the same signal-to-noise bar of 5 au, we find that the first hump of activity, which we interpret as the detonation shock, lasts for about 4 seconds and averages about 20 units in amplitude. The amount of activity in this part thus amounts to 80 aus. Then follows a lull at noise level for about 3 seconds, after which the second bout of activity begins. This hump lasts for about 8 seconds averaging perhaps 15 units in amplitude. The total activity in this part amounts to about 120 aus. If we add the two together, we'll have a total of 200 aus of activity for Building 7.

    Note that the detonation shock registers a little more strongly than the South Tower plane impact. This undoubtedly reflects the tight coupling between the explosives and the steel, as the amount of energy released in the detonations is nowhere near that of a crashing airliner.

    Now, what about the Twin Towers? We are dealing here with activity on a different scale altogether. Indeed the right-hand scale in the chart counts hundreds not tens of au. There is also greater duration in the bouts of activity.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc2level.jpg

    In order to shave off all activity except the large humps in the middle, one will need to set the signal-to-noise bar very high. In the previous two examples, I've used 5 au as a pretty obvious level for the bar, but here we would need to increase that tenfold to about 50 au. However, even if we set the bar that high, we still can't compress the "signal" activity to the 5-6 seconds you've been claiming, but will still end up with about 8 seconds of stronger-than-noise activity. That goes for both towers even if the charts look a little different with a much-higher spike in the North Tower chart.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc1level.jpg

    Applying the average amplitude x duration formula, we find that the big humps are worth about the same in both cases. The average amplitude might come in around 300 au, implying 2,400 aus of activity within the 8 seconds of "signal". I think the "high bar" is a reasonable way of identifying the big shocks for the Twin Towers, but quite obviously one will need to apply the same bar consistently when comparing the five charts to one another.

    Lowering the bar to 5 units will yield about 10-12 seconds of lead signals, followed by the big hump, which is then followed by higher-than-normal activity for the remainder of the time segment displayed in the charts. Aerial video footage of the towers going down provides some guidance about where to cut off the directly collapse-related activity, leaving the rest as "residual" or "secondary" activity. For the South Tower, I'd put the cut-off point around 35s on the time scale; for the North Tower, I would probably let it run all the way out to 40s, but not much further than that.

    In effect, we've got two main bouts of activity: the big humps and then the ensuing lower-level activity. It is reasonable to think that these two overlap as there is no lull between them. This raises the question how far to the left the lower-level activity might stretch. The answer, I think, depends on how one thinks the towers came down. In my view, the lower-level activity goes all the way to the left, starting about the same time as the onset of the big humps.

    Scaling up the collapse-related activity for Building 7 to Twin Towers size, we would expect about 6-8x more activity. In numbers that would amount to around 800 aus, give or take a hundred. The right tails on the Twin Towers charts aren't heavy enough to account for this, and that's where my notion of constant overlap comes from. Total activity in the towers charts might amount to very roughly 3,000 aus, of which 800 comes from the collapse activity. The vast bulk of activity would thus come from detonations, accounting for at least two-thirds of the activity that registered in these charts. Considering that the potential energy of each tower corresponds to at least 120 tons of TNT, this indicates a very considerable contribution to the seismic activity from underground detonations.

    This, I think, summarises how I have come to view these seismic charts and their relationship to the seismic activity that gave rise to them. It's an exercise in reasonable inference, not foolproof but in my opinion still pretty robust. In my view, it would be well-nigh impossible to get around the very large contribution coming from detonation shocks underneath the towers. One can stretch or lowball the numbers; one can experiment with various alternative schemes to bring down the towers; but no matter how far one takes these manipulations, they will still not be able to account for the massive hidden energy sources that lurk behind the big humps in the Twin Towers charts.

    “You wrote kilograms not tons, I’m assuming that’s a typo. ”

    Yes a typo, these happen.

    I do not make any preconceived assumption about the form of the impulse response. I notice that the impulse response in the plane impact for WTC1 has this form in the seismic plot. It depends on the system (which way the signals go to the seismic lab and what happens to them on the way). As the system does not change, we expect a similar impulse response from another impulse. Thus, if there is a fast explosion, like your nuke, it should give a similar shape to the impulse response in the WTC1 case.

    It is exactly because the seismic signal for the plane impact for WTC2 does not have this simple form that I do not look at WTC2. It is enough to look at one tower as you have a nuke in each tower.

    The seismic signal of the plane impact to WTC2 does not have the same type of form. This does not violate any preconceived idea that it should. Impulse response can have multiple peaks and be symmetric as in WTC2, it depends on the poles of the differential operator describing the system. BUT you are not allowed to interpret the form of the impulse response as corresponding to something that happens in the impact. The form can very well (and probably is) be caused by the routes that the signal takes. It is likely that the impact event is similar in both towers, but they are in different places and the rock structure under the towers is different. The symmetric form of the signal may for instance mean that the signal travels several ways that have different delays. I would warn of making any deductions from the signal form.

    The same goes to the seismic signal form for WTC7. It is best not to try to identify what caused the signal. You can, if you want, make a differential operator that produces an impulse response like WTC2. It is only math, but identifying what physical events cause this form is uncertain.

    I still suggest the following very simple analysis:

    Stick to WTC1, it already has a nuke.

    In WTC1 the impulse response for the plane impact impulse is simple and easy to notice.

    If there is an explosion, it is an impulse, it should give a similar impulse response since the system is the same (the signal follows the same routes).

    The seismic signal from the collapse is not similar in shape to the impulse response to the plane impact in WTC1. This means: this signal contains something else.

    What else? From timing we can see that it corresponds to the timing of mass falling from the building (which the second reference that you gave me says it is 5-6 seconds, it is not my claim, it is claim by people who claim to be experts on this field).

    So, fine, the seismic signal for the collapse part of WTC1 has a signal where mass is falling. Does is also have an input response from a nuke explosion?

    This is easy now: if it does have the nuke signal, then this signal is similar in shape to the plane impact signal. Can you find it? Not really. And that’s the conclusion. The signal from the explosion may be too weak to be measured.

    You try to make analysis from WTC2 and WTC7 signals. But unlike me here, you have to make assumptions, you identify something as corresponding to something that happened in the impact or in the collapse. I do nothing like that. I avoid assumptions. That is what you should do: minimize assumptions, they are usually wrong. Try to deduce what you are looking for without making assumptions. See that I make no assumptions and come to the conclusion that you cannot even say if there was any explosion at all. I am sure there was an explosion, but I am quite happy with the result that is was a small explosion and does not show in the seismic signals.

    So, I think it is too shaky to identify anything from the seismic signals. You should then write a differential operator that gives those signals and try to match it to physics.

    The history of the American experiment is as complicated as the Founding Fathers were complicated.

    No one can dispute that democratic institutions unprecedented in world history, except save Switzerland, evolved due to independence two-hundred and fifty years ago but remember men like Washington and Jefferson were self-contradictory;

    -being children of the Enlightenment they encouraged secularism, voting for offices, non-hereditary institutions etc. yet at the same time they were plantation-owning oligarchs thus they had incentive to limit the sharing of power they themselves encouraged.

    That America developed democratic institution in the first place I feel might have been caused by the happy fact the Founders had few sons. Washington's balls didn't work due childhood sickness and Jefferson had only grown-up daughters and too infatuated with his dusky GFs to marry again and raise legitimate sons.

    If they had more sons they would need to guarantee some source of income for their younger sons (the oldest would have gotten the plantation) as is wont of aristocratic governments throughout history.

    The American government would thus be reserved for younger sons of oligarchs and America as a country would have developed as a typical Latin American country with the latifundia class dominating every single institution.

    However, not really needing to care about guaranteeing a future for a bunch of sons that did not exist the American elite could afford to be generous and share (at least for a bit).

    It is interesting what happened fifty years later in the Age of Jackson. Jacksonian Democracy entailed that yeoman class would reach the highest echelons of political power and with political power would eventually come economic power.

    What happened next? Roughly about the same time that the elites were threatened with marginalization came the creation of weird cults like the pre-JW's , the Spiritualists, the Mormons etc. Each of these cults stressed the importance of living submissively so as to be fit for the next world. Overnight a society that was highly secular developed brand new spiritual creeds stressing the next world instead of living in this world.

    Weird that America lived through this not only once but several times when class tensions became very prominent. Weird also that America is basically the only European/European-derived country that undergoes this process, time and time again.

    I would argue that these bizarre cults, if not created by the elites were at least encouraged by the elites so as to develop a submissive, non-alcoholic workforce. After all, Las Vegas mafiosos knew that Mormons made the best casino employees, unlike Italians and Jews, they didn't pilfer money but were absolutely honest and submissive as the cash rolled in.

    Anyways to skip a bunch of time and a bunch of other stuff and to make a long story short-

    Going into the Twentieth Century, it is fairly clear that as I have stated before:

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    After all, Edward Bernays stated this was so and he was actually quite proud of contributing to it.

    Most people are familiar with Edward Bernays because a man named Noam Chomsky (remember him?) wrote thick critiques of American society using Edward Bernays as the template.

    Needless to say we now know those thick critiques were a way of channeling discussions and Noam (although a clever man and a great scientist) was controlled opposition all along. Clever isn't it?

    So to reiterate: Who was Ed Bernays? He contributed to modern societal opinion control but nobody really knew that except that Chomsky suddenly discussed him and thus people wanting change started to talk about Bernays but since Chomsky was the person who mentioned him initially, a discussion of Bernays and societal control was filtered through a Chomsky lens...and Chomsky...was controlled opposition. Again, very clever!

    I still stand by my assertion;

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    Replies: @Rurik, @MarylinM

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    if you restrict that to beginning in the 20th century, then I agree,

    but then, what nations on earth, are any different?

    Is there a nation on earth, where the elites construct a society to ensure that they would be submissive to the people? In such a society, there soon wouldn’t be any elites, and I know of none.

    In every society I’m aware of, the people are always submissive to the elites, by nature and by definition. Or they wouldn’t be ‘elites’. Being so, they always have every intention of staying so, vs. the (always) comparatively submissive people.

    Today in Murka, the elites are Zionists, and even as that is becoming untenable, they, (as the article points out), are increasingly using draconian methods, to maintain the status quo.

    George Washington, (for all his foibles), was quintessentially the father of that American spirit, that decided it would be better to kill the elites’ goons, (or die trying), than to suffer living under the whims of such ‘elites’, when being free, (at least for white men), was an alternative.

    Now today, it is all Americans, of all creeds and hues, who should be resurrecting that American spirit of olde. We need a new Declaration of Independence from ZOG.

    We need a modern Thomas Paine.

    btw, one of the founders of Netflix is Ed Bernays’ nephew. (and Jackson was my favorite pres. ; )

    Oh definitively, all present and historical nation-states are build on an hierarchy that limits access to power to the unfavored and opens opportunities to the favored.

    The uniqueness of America is the the pervasiveness of media and cultural control and the long-term application of such control. I know of no other such seeming democratic state where it is present to such a great extent (of course some will dispute this).

    People in the know generally trace it to conscious decisions to manufacture consent as set up by Bernays in the early Twentieth Century. I generally agree with this but what strikes me that group control strategies were present in America even prior to Bernays.

    Now you have to forgive me in this because it is just an idea I have, a full exposition would require a giant thesis and intensive historical research, but just flying-by-night it strikes me that the various Great Awakenings that convulsed America since independence seem to me a bit like a conscious effort to steer the populace towards submissive goals and the elite trying to control the majority.

    Again a full explanation would require intensive historical research by it seems to me that groups like the Spiritualists and the Mormons could serve as examples of consent manufacture PRIOR to Bernays.

    The question why would that be? To me it seems that the elites when writing up the Constitution gave up too much power so had to create some form of societal control later to limit further loss of power (at least the generation of elites coming after Washington and Jefferson).

    Now, I in no way am somebody that regards people like Washington and Jefferson as mere dead white males. They indeed were Great Men who did much but we also have to remember them as economic animals. They were the owners of society-their lack of sons made them able to share power but like all economic animals they didn't want to loose ALL their power hence the creation of a religious revival when the Jacksonians threatened too much democracy.

    As such, America has been experiencing created and directed social control much longer than the age of Bernays. Thus in a way, America has also been under conscious social engineering much,much longer than any other state.

    I do not know how far I can extend this but it is a thought I have.

    But they can't, because they have so much debt that the servicing costs alone would bankrupt the country. So they have to engage in all these Micky Mouse manipulations that create fake demand, like Bessents phony currency intervention which torpedoes the free market they are always praising to high heaven. Hypocrites!

    Face it-- Japan is between a rock and a hard place.

    They can't raise rates and they can't selloff US Treasuries to shore up the yen or the US Treasuries market will suffer cardiac arrest dragging down the whole rotten dollar-based scaffolding that is already hanging by a thread.

    The basic problem is that everyone on Wall Street (all the hedge funds, Private equity and retirement funds) have been making gobs of dough thru interest differential --borrowing money for nothing in Japan and investing in 5% bonds in the US. The whole carry trade is an elitist money making scam that benefits no one except the pedophilia elites who run Wall Street. So when rates go up, all these money-grubbing child molesters will take it in the shorts and the whole filthy machine will grind to a halt.

    The Jews, it can be argued, have been attacking American society for a hundred years. Undermining the morals of our children; raping our economy and imposing debt slavery on America’s hardworking men and women; stealing our atomic secrets and giving them to the Jewish Soviets running the USSR at the time in the hopes of incinerating America’s children, not yours. The case of the Jews’ war of annihilation against Christian America is brilliantly made by scholar, Dr. E. Michael Jones, in his massive book, The Jewish Revolutionary Spirit. Need proof this book is a must read to understand America today? Amazon, ie, the Jews, have banned it.

    America, thanks to Jewish perfidy, is now a polyglot nightmare about to collapse into internecine as the Democratic Socialists of America openly call for non-whites to rape and slaughter white Christians (the people who made America the beacon to the world in the past) and slaughter them to the point the streets of America are flowing with white Christians’ blood. A clue as to who is ultimately behind these calls to slaughter white Christians in their own country is the silence coming from the Republicans, whose silence is a reflection of the Jewish money that owns the Republican Party like a cheap circus act.

    Americans are now overwhelmingly against these wars of Jewish supremacy in the Middle East and the Ukraine, and they’re coming around to an understanding that they are being waged for Israel, America’s wealthy Jews, and the military-industrial complex, or MIC. The MIC, like today’s Pentagon, is no more patriotic than Jonathan Pollard, and operates with the same motive and goal. The MIC, not surprisingly, is controlled by Jews through BlackRock, Vanguard, and the largely Jewish dark money raping our intellectual property and engineering know-how through private equity funds.

    Israel—and the whole world, and not just Americans, must remember this if any of us are to survive—was responsible for (1) the assassinations of both Jack and Bobby Kennedy; (2) the murder of our sailors on board the Liberty, a Jewish act of war that today’s US military considers it a court-martial offense just to mention; (3) stole the US’ bomb-grade plutonium from a storage repository in Pittsburgh controlled by Jews; (4) stole our nuclear triggers under the direction of Netanyahu and Milchan to hold the world hostage to nuclear Armageddon; and not least, (5) Israel did 9/11 and turned the United States into a police state.

    Now it's diamonds. You really are a gas, j2, but I won't say what kind.


    LIN: Did it appear that the plane was having any difficulty flying?

    MURTAGH: Yes, it did. It was teetering back and forth, wingtip to wingtip, and it looks like it crashed into, probably, 20 stories from the top of the World Trade Center, maybe the 80th to 85th floor. There is smoke billowing out of the World Trade Center.

    LIN: Sean, what happened next? Does it appear to you that the plane is still inside the World Trade Center?

    MURTAGH: From my angle -- I'm viewing south towards the Statue of Liberty and the World Trade Center. It looks like it has embedded in the building. I can't see, from my vantage point whether it has come out the other side.

     

    Lin: "...still inside the WTC?"
    Murtagh: "can't see... whether it has come out the other side."

    Are these remarks a kind of Neuro-Linguist Programming to plant Hollywood images in the minds of the unwary?

    You claimed:


    Nobody asked them
     
    Why do you think Carol Lin or any of the news reporters would ask Murtagh or anyone else if they saw a fireball? Fireballs didn't emerge as an issue until the phony videos with spectacular fireballs were broadcast on TV. Certainly, anyone who saw a spectacular fireball as it was rendered in the WTC 2 crash videos would not have to be asked leading questions about it, would not fail to mention it, and would in fact be eager to volunteer the information.

    But nothing.

    Again, it is always the responsibility of the party making the claim to provide evidence to support that claim, but you haven't done that, and your hot air and walls of unformatted typing are not evidence, j2.

    In the plane crash there were these special high-energy conditions.
     

    Only because you say so. In fact, 500-600 mph is in the range of air gun BB velocities that are far below the 3,000 mph of kinetic anti-armor penetrators that are fabricated from some of the hardest materials known, so the alleged speed of UA175 fell far short of special high-energy conditions, and of course, the hollow aluminum tube structure of a jetliner is nothing at all like solid DU.

    In any event, your AI does go on to say what I've been telling you.


    As a standard solid tool, soft aluminum cannot cut or machine harder steel because steel has much higher tensile strength and hardness.
     
    So there you have it, and my challenge stands: Post an image, demonstration or video of aluminum cutting steel, or be still.

    John Johnson: "Punching a woman is not a sign strength nor does it counteract liberalism. ... If anything that type of wanton violences [sic] only feeds the system."

    Both violence against women and rape are excellent ways of counteracting liberalism, in just the same way that lynching niggers is a great way to counteract negrolatry. Of course, in our de facto gynocracy, violence against women is the greatest conceivable crime, as it would represent rebellion against the status quo.

    Then too, I have to wonder here about what you mean by "the system". As I usually use the term, I'm referring to the system of interlocking techniques more fully expressed by the phrase "the technological system". As you use it, I guess you just mean to refer vaguely to what seems to you to be an unacceptable state of affairs. But as I've pointed out in previous remarks, the technological system is inherently anti-human, and its continued expansion through "Progress", means that things will only get worse as time goes on no matter what happens. If Goad hadn't reacted to Sky Ryan's provocations by beating her, would that have weakened "the system"? I don't think so. Then he would just have been another male feminist white knight like you. That, too, would have only "fed the system".

    John Johnson: "Goad had zero ideas and was just angry at the system. "

    LOL Goad certainly had no ideas, hence his appeal to the "alt-right", which also has no ideas. Ironically, his having no ideas helped them identify with him. Like them, Goad not only failed to properly analyze and understand the existential crisis the white race is experiencing, but he also offered no solutions. I don't think he was "angry at the system" so much as engaged in constructing a persona that would express anger at it, building up the public image of Jim Goad as a kind of white Everyman, a spokesman for white discontent. Actually being angry would have required him to be genuine about something, which would have been out of character.

    Can't tell if serious but the bad boy thing does work with liberal women. You don't need to go to some crazy extreme like actually committing crimes. Liberalism enacts a toll on its followers. It is very stifling and they go through the day with all kinds of earth and racial guilt. They are often attracted to indifference as a break from liberal politics. I de-indoctrinated one girl within a week or two. She was struggling with not being attracted to liberal men and disliked having sex with them. I (cough) enlightened her on how she has a basic female nature that isn't her fault and conflicts with liberalism. Some of these women are at war with themselves. It isn't natural for them.

    @A Competent Physicist


    The ruling establishments always enlist the help of proxies to do their dirty work. This is no secret and you can see it plainly throughout history and in the dozens of Color Revolutions our power centers have surreptitiously organized over this past century. European oligarchs, feudal lords and even the Catholic Church have frequently employed other parties to exploit their own people when they themselves could not do so for practical reasons. When Jewish tax collectors and merchants grew too aggressive in their practices and there was political blowback, there were expulsions. This cycle was repeated so many times, lather, rinse, repeat… Powerful people needed the services of Jews to tax, seize property, etc. from their own people without causing a revolt.

    At this point, it becomes clear how a few Jewish revolutionaries e.g. the Bolsheviks could have such a disproportionate influence. Obviously, if Americans or British were involved in murdering the Romanov families it would be a very bad look for history. The solution was to pick someone else to do the dirty work and project power from behind the scenes. The Anglo empire needed to control the middle east so the modern state of Israel was created through the Balfour declaration...

    Whatever your opinions and beliefs, you can keep them but it’s more profitable to examine them through different lenses. One lens is the Gremlin theory and the other I’ll call the Proxy theory for lack of a better name.
     
    Sure, there's certainly an important element of historical truth in this "Proxy theory." In fact, I'd given it some attention in my first major article on these Jewish issues, published back in 2018:

    Furthermore, Jewish hostility toward non-Jews may often have served the interests of others, and helped determine the economic role that the group filled, especially in European countries, with this factor having been obscured by widespread ignorance of the underlying religious tenets. As most of us know from our history books, political rulers who harshly exploit their subjects sometimes restrict military power to a relatively small group of well-rewarded mercenaries, often of foreign origins so that they will have little sympathy for the population they harshly repress. I strongly suspect that some of the most common traditional economic niches of European Jews, such as tax-farming and the arrenda estate-management system of Eastern Europe, should be best understood in a similar light, with Jews being more likely to extract every last penny of value from the peasants they controlled for the benefit of their local king or lords, and their notorious antipathy for all non-Jews ensuring that such behavior was minimally tempered by any human sympathy. Thus, we should not be surprised that Jews first entered England in the train of William the Conqueror, in order to help him and his victorious Norman lords effectively exploit the subjugated Anglo-Saxon population they now ruled.

    But states in which the vast majority of the population is oppressed and dominated by a thin slice of rulers and their mercenary enforcers tend to be much weaker and more brittle than those in which rulers and ruled share common interests, and I believe this is just as true for economic enforcers as for military ones. In many cases, lands reliant upon Jewish economic intermediaries, notably Poland, never successfully developed a native middle class, and often later fared quite poorly against their nationally-unified competitors.
     
    https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-oddities-of-the-jewish-religion/#the-historical-role-of-jews-in-western-societies

    However, the two theories are not really in any deep conflict, and possible instances of Proxy theory should be considered on a case-by-case historical basis. It's obviously correct in the examples of the Polish arrenda system, the Jewish exploitation of the English under the British monarchs, and numerous other examples. Even in the case of Russia, Jewish alcohol sales to the peasants was an important source of government revenue.

    But I don't think it applies at all in the case of the Jewish colonization of Palestine or the Jewish Bolsheviks. After all, the British had rather mixed feelings about the former during the 1920s and 1930s, and massive Zionist terrorism finally drove them out after WWII. Meanwhile, the Bolshevik Revolution was a total strategic disaster for the Allies in WWI and the British were absolutely opposed to it.

    Also, if we consider the model of Jews often playing the role of "foreign economic mercenaries" that elites often brought in to help exploit their own people, we should consider there's a long history of similar military mercenaries then eventually seizing power for themselves.

    the tragedy is that even with the conscious effort of the Founders, to create a society that was designed to be hostile to a codified, hereditary 'elite', America has since devolved into the worst kind of degenerate slave-state, ruled by an utterly unaccountable elite, of the worst sort. Rather like Bolshevik Russia in its day. Perhaps should the right man come along, we too can be resurrected, like Putin has resurrected Russia.

    The history of the American experiment is as complicated as the Founding Fathers were complicated.

    No one can dispute that democratic institutions unprecedented in world history, except save Switzerland, evolved due to independence two-hundred and fifty years ago but remember men like Washington and Jefferson were self-contradictory;

    -being children of the Enlightenment they encouraged secularism, voting for offices, non-hereditary institutions etc. yet at the same time they were plantation-owning oligarchs thus they had incentive to limit the sharing of power they themselves encouraged.

    That America developed democratic institution in the first place I feel might have been caused by the happy fact the Founders had few sons. Washington’s balls didn’t work due childhood sickness and Jefferson had only grown-up daughters and too infatuated with his dusky GFs to marry again and raise legitimate sons.

    If they had more sons they would need to guarantee some source of income for their younger sons (the oldest would have gotten the plantation) as is wont of aristocratic governments throughout history.

    The American government would thus be reserved for younger sons of oligarchs and America as a country would have developed as a typical Latin American country with the latifundia class dominating every single institution.

    However, not really needing to care about guaranteeing a future for a bunch of sons that did not exist the American elite could afford to be generous and share (at least for a bit).

    It is interesting what happened fifty years later in the Age of Jackson. Jacksonian Democracy entailed that yeoman class would reach the highest echelons of political power and with political power would eventually come economic power.

    What happened next? Roughly about the same time that the elites were threatened with marginalization came the creation of weird cults like the pre-JW’s , the Spiritualists, the Mormons etc. Each of these cults stressed the importance of living submissively so as to be fit for the next world. Overnight a society that was highly secular developed brand new spiritual creeds stressing the next world instead of living in this world.

    Weird that America lived through this not only once but several times when class tensions became very prominent. Weird also that America is basically the only European/European-derived country that undergoes this process, time and time again.

    I would argue that these bizarre cults, if not created by the elites were at least encouraged by the elites so as to develop a submissive, non-alcoholic workforce. After all, Las Vegas mafiosos knew that Mormons made the best casino employees, unlike Italians and Jews, they didn’t pilfer money but were absolutely honest and submissive as the cash rolled in.

    Anyways to skip a bunch of time and a bunch of other stuff and to make a long story short-

    Going into the Twentieth Century, it is fairly clear that as I have stated before:

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    After all, Edward Bernays stated this was so and he was actually quite proud of contributing to it.

    Most people are familiar with Edward Bernays because a man named Noam Chomsky (remember him?) wrote thick critiques of American society using Edward Bernays as the template.

    Needless to say we now know those thick critiques were a way of channeling discussions and Noam (although a clever man and a great scientist) was controlled opposition all along. Clever isn’t it?

    So to reiterate: Who was Ed Bernays? He contributed to modern societal opinion control but nobody really knew that except that Chomsky suddenly discussed him and thus people wanting change started to talk about Bernays but since Chomsky was the person who mentioned him initially, a discussion of Bernays and societal control was filtered through a Chomsky lens…and Chomsky…was controlled opposition. Again, very clever!

    I still stand by my assertion;

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    if you restrict that to beginning in the 20th century, then I agree,

    but then, what nations on earth, are any different?

    Is there a nation on earth, where the elites construct a society to ensure that they would be submissive to the people? In such a society, there soon wouldn't be any elites, and I know of none.

    In every society I'm aware of, the people are always submissive to the elites, by nature and by definition. Or they wouldn't be 'elites'. Being so, they always have every intention of staying so, vs. the (always) comparatively submissive people.

    Today in Murka, the elites are Zionists, and even as that is becoming untenable, they, (as the article points out), are increasingly using draconian methods, to maintain the status quo.

    George Washington, (for all his foibles), was quintessentially the father of that American spirit, that decided it would be better to kill the elites' goons, (or die trying), than to suffer living under the whims of such 'elites', when being free, (at least for white men), was an alternative.

    Now today, it is all Americans, of all creeds and hues, who should be resurrecting that American spirit of olde. We need a new Declaration of Independence from ZOG.

    We need a modern Thomas Paine.

The fact that Britain and France had good relations for a brief period was nothing but a product of the particular contingencies of its time, e.g. Germany’s rise, the resolution of the colonial rivalry. Bismarck’s delicate balance of power was always on the verge of becoming unbalanced.

    You’re closer to the truth but the “stridently nationalistic” element is unnecessary. Nationalism was nothing but the ideology which animated the masses at the time. In 1618 it was religion; after nationalism, it became political ideology. It’s really just about great power politics and the scale of the conflict is a product of the size of the political entity (centralization, consolidation), weapons technology, media technology, logistical technology. The rest is interesting but subordinate.

    Stalin was certainly a Communist. Both he and Lenin were forced to conclude that much of Marxist theory was bunk but they kept to the plan of eliminating capitalism and private ownership. It was Stalin that killed over a million people from his collective farming plans. Basically forcing farmers to work state owned lands that were managed by Communists that knew nothing about farming or economics.

    I get a similar question when I point out where our resident Hitler apologists are wrong or not telling the whole story.

    Some of us want an accurate take on history the precedes politics. If you like something that Stalin or Hitler did then make that point honestly. Don't drift into trying to remake their images by cutting corners on history. It doesn't work and especially in an open forum.

    It should be more important to you why FDR betrayed this nation, and fought a war in support of the International Communism.

    It was Hitler that declared war on the US and was delighted that his Japanese ally had gunned down 18 year olds. The men on duty at Pearl Harbor were mostly 18-21 year olds that were cleaning the ships while the older sailors had shore leave.

    So spare me any lectures on FDR. I think he was a lousy president but it was Hitler that declared war on the US and made FDR's dream of ending American isolation come true.

    Hitler recklessly gambled on two fronts and then hoped his Japanese ally would kill enough Anglos to tip the war. What a hero for Whites.

    Stalin was a Georgian who killed over a million people with his collectivist plans. That was after Lenin admitted they didn't understand economics. Meaning Stalin saw that failures of Marxism and yet continue to push for collectivization. He also made an alliance with Hitler to split Eastern Europe which included marching Christians off to the Gulags. Stalin was not a nationalist. A nationalist would have ended the USSR and freed Georgia. Not a single Soviet state had a majority that wanted to be part of the USSR.

    https://theenchantedmanor.com/tag/special-effects-in-the-wizard-of-oz-movie/

    Image

    The film had many special effects that seem very primitive now with our modern techniques of film production. The tornado that sweeps Dorothy’s family house away in the movie was actually a 35 foot-long muslin stocking that was spun around among a miniature dusty set of the Kansas farms and fields. To show Dorothy’s house falling into the Land of Oz, a miniature house was dropped from reasonable height onto a sky painted onto a canvas placed flat on the stage floor, then the film was reversed to make it appear as if the house was falling from the sky and towards the camera.

    I will rewrite my answer to you in a clearer way.

    Let's start with the plane impact to WTC1. The seismic signal looks like a typical impulse response. Impulse is the nearly instantaneous impact of the plane, the system is the whole building and ground transporting the signal to the seismic lab. The signal that this system outputs, i.e., what the plot shows, is the input response. The system cannot transport infinitely fast changes (technically, it cuts high frequencies), so the signal rises slower and then it decreases slowly as the system oscillates after an impulse. This plot looks very clean and good. The plane impact on WTC2 is not so good, the signal comes many ways, we will not look at the plots for WTC2.

    If there is an explosion in WTC1 before the collapse begins, it is another impulse to the same system. It should give a similar input response, but looking at the plot of the collapse of WTC1, the plot is not similar to the plane impact. What does this mean?

    As this plot corresponds to the time when the building collapses and material falls, we can suspect that this plot also shows signals generated by falling material. So, there could be an input response to the nuclear explosion overlayed on signals coming from falling material. How can we explain this plot?

    There are three ways:
    1. It could be that the plot only shows falling material (this is like the official story says it is), and there was no explosion at all.

    2. It could be that there was an explosion, but it was too small to be measured in the seismic station (like if it was 1000 TNT) and the plot only shows falling material.

    3. It could be that there was a large explosion by a nuke, but to the ground and seismic signal went so little that it cannot be measured. The plot only shows falling material.

    4. It could be that the explosion was large enough to be measured and it is the first peak in the signal, the rest is falling material.

    5. It could be that the explosion was large enough to be measured, it is the first peak, but also the explosion was big, it was a small nuke, but only very little went to the seismic signal.

    and so on.

    As a result, we have too many possible explanations, we do not learn anything from these plots.

    The North Tower impact chart* does not reflect a “simple” event but a “complex” or “combined” one. It involves a large detonation in the basement, which comes first, and then also the airliner impacting. These two events come 9 seconds apart. We know this as they were even recorded on audio tape in a nearby conference room.

    Image

    You’ll also see that the total activity in the North Tower impact chart amounts to about 4x that of the South Tower impact. If you go through the motions, you’ll arrive at around 240 aus of activity for the North Tower. It goes without saying that there is a lot more going on there than just the airliner hitting the tower. The airliner accounts for only about one-quarter of the activity that registered.

    The South Tower impact chart, on the other hand, shows a “clean” event, namely the airliner impacting the tower. The vertical steel transmits the signal down to bedrock, which then conveys it to PAL. The very same mechanism is in effect for the North Tower impact chart as well, but like I said there is more going on down in the basement about 9 seconds before the airliner hits.

    So clearly they carried out some preparatory explosions that were supposed to be synced with the airliner striking, but ended up going off 9 seconds early. This is a key piece of evidence against the official story of the towers collapsing purely from impacts and ensuing fires.

    * Jim Hoffman’s website is timing out (not responding) right now, so I can’t view the charts whilst writing this. If the links are dead at your end as well, they will hopefully come back to life before long.

    I will still explain.

    You can find many seismographic graphs from underground nuclear explosions and how people try to decide if some signal is from a nuke or something else (like an earthquake). We do not need this art, but from those graphs you see that a signal from a nuke can have many different looks. It can have one starting peak, two peaks, be rather symmetric, have a thicker or thinner tail and so on.

    But always you know that it is an impulse response because when a nuke goes off, it goes off fast. Rock does not respond so fast, in the seismic graph the explosion of a nuke is practically instantaneous. (It is not so instantaneous in air, there we can detect phases, like the light signal, the pressure wave, emp, so on, but not in the seismic graph). As it is an impulse, what the seismograph records is an impulse response. It can look very different depending on the ground between the explosion and the measurement point. But we can get around this because we have another impulse: also the plane impact is an impulse.

    Look for a characteristic impulse response, one that you can recognize if is it superimposed to some other signal. That characteristic signal is the plane impact impulse response from WTC1 case. It is NOT the one from WTC2. The one from WTC2 is such a signal that you can superimpose it to some other signal and not recognize if it should be there or not. But the one from WTC1 has a peak at the beginning. This is why you can see if it is superimposed to the WTC1 collapse signal or not.

    I would say, it is not. At least not in a way that stands out in any sense.

    This analysis cannot tell if there was a nuke or not or an explosion or not, but it is fully compatible with a small conventional explosive of 1000 kg TNT.

    What one can say is that there was no big nuke, or if there was a big nuke, the seismic graphs are wrong. Because there is only surface waves, with a big nuke underground there would be deep waves, they are not. Also, the wave would dominate over the falling mass from the building. These seismic graphs refute the big nuke theory, this is why when I once discussed about them with a big nuker, the proposal from this person was that the seismic graphs are fakes. I do not think they are fakes, I am sure there were not big nukes.

    But a very small nuke can be. I still do not see any need for it and these seismographic graphs have not made me change my mind.

    You mentioned that there is lack of energy. I see no lack of energy. Where do you see this lack of energy to motivate small nukes?

    it's hard to believe that laura loomer once looked human. you'd think if the rino was going to have rhinoplasty 🦏, she would have had her beak shaved but rather she decided to enhance everything else on her face instead, starting with her repulsive bee sting lips. i don't know if she had a forehead reduction, perhaps as a result of a lobotomy, but that, along with her mandible enhancement, she has now developed a real cro-magnon look, which suits her troglodyte mentality.

    perhaps i am jumping to conclusions about her surgical modifications, maybe she has just naturally transformed and devolved, due to her primitive bronze age mentality. i'm sure ivanka (what a beautiful and melodic name, reminiscent of a goose honking) has had several million dollars worth of plastic surgery, starting in her teens, perhaps at daddy's suggestion, tweaking her nose and perhaps her nipples, as the don was known to do. you'd think after what happened to her mother, she might be hesitant to go under the knife, but she's still young there's still time to under go repeated surgeries until she is perfect, just like michael jackson.

    how does it feel to be one of the beautiful people, now that you know who you are, what do you want to be? and have you traveled very far? far as the eye can see. baby you're a rich bitch, baby you're a rich bitch, baby you're a rich bitch too.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBjiEsAyNQs

    It is simply so that hardness of material protects it against scratches, it still can be broken in many ways, like a diamond can be broken by an impact, and steel can be bent too much. here you have AI answer to the question can aluminum break steel?

    "Yes, aluminum can break or penetrate steel, but only under specific high-energy, thermal, or chemical conditions. As a standard solid tool, soft aluminum cannot cut or machine harder steel because steel has much higher tensile strength and hardness."

    In the plane crash there were these special high-energy conditions.

    Let's stop this about aluminum. You are wrong, that's all.

    Replies: @Sparkon

    Now it’s diamonds. You really are a gas, j2, but I won’t say what kind.

    LIN: Did it appear that the plane was having any difficulty flying?

    MURTAGH: Yes, it did. It was teetering back and forth, wingtip to wingtip, and it looks like it crashed into, probably, 20 stories from the top of the World Trade Center, maybe the 80th to 85th floor. There is smoke billowing out of the World Trade Center.

    LIN: Sean, what happened next? Does it appear to you that the plane is still inside the World Trade Center?

    MURTAGH: From my angle — I’m viewing south towards the Statue of Liberty and the World Trade Center. It looks like it has embedded in the building. I can’t see, from my vantage point whether it has come out the other side.

    Lin: “…still inside the WTC?”
    Murtagh: “can’t see… whether it has come out the other side.”

    Are these remarks a kind of Neuro-Linguist Programming to plant Hollywood images in the minds of the unwary?

    You claimed:

    Nobody asked them

    Why do you think Carol Lin or any of the news reporters would ask Murtagh or anyone else if they saw a fireball? Fireballs didn’t emerge as an issue until the phony videos with spectacular fireballs were broadcast on TV. Certainly, anyone who saw a spectacular fireball as it was rendered in the WTC 2 crash videos would not have to be asked leading questions about it, would not fail to mention it, and would in fact be eager to volunteer the information.

    But nothing.

    Again, it is always the responsibility of the party making the claim to provide evidence to support that claim, but you haven’t done that, and your hot air and walls of unformatted typing are not evidence, j2.

    In the plane crash there were these special high-energy conditions.

    Only because you say so. In fact, 500-600 mph is in the range of air gun BB velocities that are far below the 3,000 mph of kinetic anti-armor penetrators that are fabricated from some of the hardest materials known, so the alleged speed of UA175 fell far short of special high-energy conditions, and of course, the hollow aluminum tube structure of a jetliner is nothing at all like solid DU.

    In any event, your AI does go on to say what I’ve been telling you.

    As a standard solid tool, soft aluminum cannot cut or machine harder steel because steel has much higher tensile strength and hardness.

    So there you have it, and my challenge stands: Post an image, demonstration or video of aluminum cutting steel, or be still.

    Kevin Barrett is naive despite his senior years. These movements fronting as 'anti-Zionist' may well be as illusory and astroturfed as previous movements pretending to be 'for the working class' etc. Some of the individuals may be actually anti-Zionist but they are just temporary 'useful pawns' likely to get thwarted when the time comes.

    Remember that George Soros has long funded some Palestinian causes. Loud visible opposition to Jewry - some of it by Jews themselves - can work well in the current frame, to advance the globalist agenda of elites, who employ both left and right wings of so-called dissidents.

    The USA is now ripe for surface radicalism including some major far-leftism, because things are getting so hopeless for USA working people and youth, who often cannot afford their own tiny apartment or health insurance, whilst grocery prices ratchet up. But opposition movements have a sad tendency to be continually co-opted, and leveraged by the elites for their agendas, these 'anti-Zionist' ones as well.

    Much 'opposition' is not real. The percentage of people who get the 'secret society' angle on gentiles, is quite a bit smaller than those aware of the JQ.

  • @YetAnotherAnon
    This is a pretty important history:

    https://arctotherium.substack.com/p/the-closure-of-the-internet

    The closure of the Internet occurred in two distinct phases: 2015-2019 (associated with the 2015 migrant crisis, Brexit, Donald Trump’s election, and the so-called alt-right) and 2020-2022 (associated with the lockdowns and the 2020 election). Almost all of the technical and organizational infrastructure and conceptual justifications were built out in the first phase, which successfully decapitated and destroyed the previously-independent, but by definition fringe, online ecosystem of ideas. In the second phase, the same weapons that previously targeted heterodox online discourse were turned against opposition to the COVID measures du joure and mainstream conservatives. The scale of censorship has no precedent; tens of millions of accounts suppressed or banned, billions of posts removed.

    These purges are usually framed as a direct response to particular events or atrocities. For example Amazon ostensibly removed all Confederate flag merchandise from their web store in response to Dylan Roof’s 2015 massacre of black churchgoers. This is a mistake. Atrocities without a propaganda campaign from the press and political pressure from an opaque network of governments and quasi-government NGOs lead to no changes. There were no mass purges after Audrey Hale’s 2023 murder of elementary schoolers in Nashville motivated by anti-white hatred or the 2016 murder of five Dallas police officers by an ex-marine motivated by the BLM movement. On the other hand, press campaigns not centered around an atrocity, such as the mass deplatformings of YouTube personalities, lead to the same types of purges as the atrocity-based ones. It is not the atrocity that causes the changes, but the media and behind-the-scenes pressure campaign.

    The late 2010s also featured suppression of heterodoxy offline as well. This combined physical attacks on the streets, as happened to Charles Murray, and the firing of public figures with non-Internet platforms, as with Bo Winegard and Bryan Pesta. Even moderates and liberals in already left-wing institutions were not immune, as the purges of those who valued pluralism in objectivity within the New York Times, ACLU, and many progressive activist organizations showed. As such, the closure of the Internet shut down all avenues for heterodox discourse during the Great Awokening. If you spoke from an institutional platform, you would be fired. If you spoke in person, you would be beaten or shot. And if you spoke online, you would be censored, suppressed, demonetized, and doxxed.

    The closure of the Internet is the most important social phenomenon of the late 2010s. Most young people live online. More than half of American adults under 50 say they use the Internet “almost constantly”. Globally, almost 70% of people are online, and the average Internet user spends almost seven hours a day there. Cyberspace is where most couples meet, where most friend groups hang out, and where most people have fun. There is no alternative for even semi-serious intellectual or hobbyist discussion outside of a handful of low-capacity and carefully gatekept institutions. The word “censorship” does not go far enough; online went from almost completely open and free to a series of “closely monitored playpens,” like going from the American frontier to East Germany in just a few years.

    Thanks for the pity party source.

    Companies and groups choosing to hold people accountable for what they say? Yes.

    Closure of the Internet? No. There is Truth Social, Social Galactic, unz.com, and other forums on the Internet for people to say what is on their mind. Social media has their rules in the sandbox. Play in it or do not play in it. Your decision.

    “If you spoke from an institutional platform, you would be fired. If you spoke in person, you would be beaten or shot. And if you spoke online, you would be censored, suppressed, demonetized, and doxxed”

    Free speech has never been free. There are always positive and negative consequences to what a person says.

He doesn't disagree, but also argues, rightly, that free speech is an important societal value beyond just the protection from government censorship. We should not shrug off, much less celebrate, private censorship of the public sphere. And he illustrates the myriad ways that governments are behind all of the mass private and semi-private censorship over the past decade.

    Excellent article but very disturbing....
    especially this...

    the trajectory of Jewish and Zionist influence at the top of the American government has been steadily and even rapidly increasing over the last quarter century. This may have been an important factor in the transformation of the USA of a generation or two ago into what might be best described as the USSA of today.
     
    The majority of Americans are aware of this trend (to some extent) although they are hesitant to talk about it. Perhaps America's defeat in the Gulf will change that, but I doubt it.

    This article seems to connect the dots between zionist influence and the shocking increase in police state behavior including armed thugs detaining and deporting dissidents, or even critics of Israel. The torching of civil liberties is not a spontaneous response to an emerging threat but a widely supported strategy to strengthen the executive. Anglin is right as is Ron.

    All true, but this is only half the story.
    ICE is also the righteous arm of the democratic majority reasserting control of their country. If you believe in democracy and our Constitution, then you want illegals to be deported. Biden’s open borders policy was an act of anarcho-tyranny, not democracy. The protestors using their cars to block ICE law enforcement are likewise blocking the majority from enforcing their laws.
    If you want illegals deported then you accept that the cops will have to use force, especially given the fanatic resistance of the un-democratic minority. ICE in this role are not police state thugs torching civil liberties – they are servants of the democratic majority carrying out its will as you should want.
    When ICE uses force to deport illegals and arrest protestors who interfere with that work, then I am all for it. When illegals resist and flee they just might be shot and I don’t care. When protestors defy orders from cops and appear to be weaponizing their car, they might be shot and I don’t care. When protestors who are armed (which is legal) start wrestling with a cop (which is not), they might be shot and I don’t care.

    The situation gets worse by the day but no one offers a solution.

    Anti-Democracy zionist jews control the leadership of both parties, and Anti-Democracy anarchist/socialist/communist protestors (some of them anti-zionist jews, just to keep things complicated) offer the only resistance. No organized political force represents the interests of the American people. No organized political force speaks for individual freedom, limited government, freedom of association – i.e. the Constitution. That is the situation that gets worse every day. The reason there is no solution is that both the elites and the enemies of the elites are enemies of normal people.

Almost without exception anime is the most infantile trash in the entertainment world outside of some hollywood teen sex-romp movie, and the stereotypes are all true. It’s actually been growing worse, following japan’s generational descent into a state of things which is almost a carbon copy of the problem in america where everyone under 40 is a fucking moron with no attention span, “triggered” by everything (e.g. anime studios must now pixelate things like blood, vomit and dead mice) and addicted to wanking it all day to pre-pubescent cartoon females.

    Anime “storytelling”? Even at its height it was forgettable schlock, especially in those shows you named. It’s now all but vanished in favor of formulaic focus-group tested pabulum pandering to this generation of man children, with an emphasis on high turnover and product placement.

    There is an useful way of testing if we are living in a singularity:

    3- take the elevator to the observation deck

    4- go to the observation deck

    5- jump off the observation deck

    6- if you land on your feet and are OK then yes you are living in a singularity

    Quite possibly some of these steps might be modified (it need not be Uber) and if you can't afford an observation deck ticket, a self-inflicted shotgun blast to the face might do in a pinch (but please use slugs not birdshot because one could possibly survive birdshot to the face in both reality or a singularity thus not fully providing closure to a disquieting philosophical corundum).

    A continued series of self-directed hammer blows to the head Ren and Stimpy style doesn't provide closure either due to that old nagging problem of the same results happening in both reality and singularity. It would just leave you with a headache and brain damaged enough for you to become a troll on the Unz forum.

    "According to Urich, the mass of each tower came in at about 300,000 tons and the potential energy, at about 500 GJ. This potential energy is roughly equivalent to 120 tons of TNT. "

    I find mostly 450,000,000 kg as the weight of the building, including what was inside it. If we calculate more precisely that the center of the weight is not at the middle of the building because the steel structures on lower floor are stronger and heavier, we probably can set the center of weight to 170 m. Then the potential energy is 7.5*10^11 J, which is 180 kg of TNT. Could it be that Urich counts only the building itself, not the mass of everything that was in the building.

    The first link gave seismographic signals in Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University, 34 km from WTC buildings. That is a rather small distance, so the signals should not have distorted very much.

    In the impact of the plane to WTC1, we see very much an impulse response, that is, the output from a system that is given an impulse (infinitely short pulse). It looks like that because the system has limited bandwidth and cannot react infinitely fast. You see rather fast growing signal and then oscillations. You see similar impulse responses in EM-waves in all communication systems, and in voice recording and everywhere. The important thing to notice is that after the rise time (which reflects the bandwidth of the system), the signal decreases from the maximum. This is also what one should expect from a nuclear explosion in the beginning of the collapse of WTC1 because this signal goes along the same routes to the seismic lab.

    Look at the signal from the collapse of WTC1. The figure does not show an impulse response looking similar to the plane impact. If there is an impulse response from an explosion (a very fast pulse), it is superimposed on other data. The other data has a peak later than the peak in the plane impact plot.

    Does the signal from WTC1 collapse show signals from falling of material from the building? I think it does because there is material falling in the WTC7 plot. So, the second stronger peak in the seismic signal of the WTC1 collapse may be material falling from the building.

    As you point out, most of the energy of an explosion does not go to the seismic signal.

    But judging from the signal from the collapse of WTC1, I think if might very well be so that the seismic signal is completely produced by falling matter. If so, the explosion did not give any measurable signal, it was too weak.

    If this is one possible explanation (and I think it is possible), then nothing can be learned about the explosion by looking at this seismic data.

    As said, I have no competence in analyzing seismic signals and cannot be of any help.

    Thanks much for these additional thoughts. Adding 50% to Urich’s estimates amounts in my opinion to high-balling the numbers, but each one to his own. You’ll then raise Urich’s 500 GJ to 750 GJ, which is the equivalent of 180 tons of TNT. You wrote kilograms not tons, I’m assuming that’s a typo.

    Reading these seismic charts is very much an exercise in statistical inference. There is a “data-generating process” (DGP) underneath, which gives rise to the data as displayed in the charts. The art of reading these charts is to make the best possible inferences about the nature of scope of the underlying DGP. I think that can be done without extensive training in seismology, so the “expertise” in question does not strike me as entirely necessary.

    I take as the point of departure the one chart that connects to a sharply defined and known shock, namely the impact shock for the South Tower. This chart consists of three parts: first noise, then a well-defined activity signal, and then noise again. A reasonable level for the signal-to-noise bar will be 5 units of amplitude according to the right-hand scale on the chart. Anything above 5 will be “signal”; anything below it (except the odd chance spike) will be “noise”.

    Image

    The signal begins at 17-18 seconds, and ends 21-22 seconds on the time scale. The activity lasts about 4 seconds with an average amplitude of about 15 units (let’s call them au, for “amplitude units”). The total amount of activity in the event is thus about 15au x 4s = 60 aus. That’s a proxy for the amount of activity as recorded at the station. The amount of activity at the origin will depend on a host of other things including the conditions and paths of transmission, the frequency distribution of the activity at origin, etc.

    In this case, it is possible to at least roughly estimate the amount of activity as we know the approximate speed and mass of the aircraft that went in. So for this particular transmission it is possible to relate the approximate energy of the generative event to the activity seen in the chart. It’s not a terribly meaningful exercise though, as the events we’re interested in don’t compare directly in any case.

    What’s important to note is that the above-noise activity hump is symmetric; it is neither skewed to the left nor to the right. This alone pretty much disproves the preconceived notion that a sharp shock like a plane impact or a detonation would show up as a heavily right-skewed hump in the seismic chart. There is absolutely no indication of that, and I’ll reiterate that this chart is based on known events not mere inferences about what we think is likely to have happened.

    Looking at the Building 7 chart, which reflects a complex event consisting of an initial detonation shock as the steel is cut, followed by a brief lull and then another bout of activity as the building crushes itself to the ground. In this case, we’re dealing with a nearly-known event as the probability of controlled demolition is very high. That said, it is not a known event as with the South Tower plane impact.

    Image

    Applying the same signal-to-noise bar of 5 au, we find that the first hump of activity, which we interpret as the detonation shock, lasts for about 4 seconds and averages about 20 units in amplitude. The amount of activity in this part thus amounts to 80 aus. Then follows a lull at noise level for about 3 seconds, after which the second bout of activity begins. This hump lasts for about 8 seconds averaging perhaps 15 units in amplitude. The total activity in this part amounts to about 120 aus. If we add the two together, we’ll have a total of 200 aus of activity for Building 7.

    Note that the detonation shock registers a little more strongly than the South Tower plane impact. This undoubtedly reflects the tight coupling between the explosives and the steel, as the amount of energy released in the detonations is nowhere near that of a crashing airliner.

    Now, what about the Twin Towers? We are dealing here with activity on a different scale altogether. Indeed the right-hand scale in the chart counts hundreds not tens of au. There is also greater duration in the bouts of activity.

    Image

    In order to shave off all activity except the large humps in the middle, one will need to set the signal-to-noise bar very high. In the previous two examples, I’ve used 5 au as a pretty obvious level for the bar, but here we would need to increase that tenfold to about 50 au. However, even if we set the bar that high, we still can’t compress the “signal” activity to the 5-6 seconds you’ve been claiming, but will still end up with about 8 seconds of stronger-than-noise activity. That goes for both towers even if the charts look a little different with a much-higher spike in the North Tower chart.

    Image

    Applying the average amplitude x duration formula, we find that the big humps are worth about the same in both cases. The average amplitude might come in around 300 au, implying 2,400 aus of activity within the 8 seconds of “signal”. I think the “high bar” is a reasonable way of identifying the big shocks for the Twin Towers, but quite obviously one will need to apply the same bar consistently when comparing the five charts to one another.

    Lowering the bar to 5 units will yield about 10-12 seconds of lead signals, followed by the big hump, which is then followed by higher-than-normal activity for the remainder of the time segment displayed in the charts. Aerial video footage of the towers going down provides some guidance about where to cut off the directly collapse-related activity, leaving the rest as “residual” or “secondary” activity. For the South Tower, I’d put the cut-off point around 35s on the time scale; for the North Tower, I would probably let it run all the way out to 40s, but not much further than that.

    In effect, we’ve got two main bouts of activity: the big humps and then the ensuing lower-level activity. It is reasonable to think that these two overlap as there is no lull between them. This raises the question how far to the left the lower-level activity might stretch. The answer, I think, depends on how one thinks the towers came down. In my view, the lower-level activity goes all the way to the left, starting about the same time as the onset of the big humps.

    Scaling up the collapse-related activity for Building 7 to Twin Towers size, we would expect about 6-8x more activity. In numbers that would amount to around 800 aus, give or take a hundred. The right tails on the Twin Towers charts aren’t heavy enough to account for this, and that’s where my notion of constant overlap comes from. Total activity in the towers charts might amount to very roughly 3,000 aus, of which 800 comes from the collapse activity. The vast bulk of activity would thus come from detonations, accounting for at least two-thirds of the activity that registered in these charts. Considering that the potential energy of each tower corresponds to at least 120 tons of TNT, this indicates a very considerable contribution to the seismic activity from underground detonations.

    This, I think, summarises how I have come to view these seismic charts and their relationship to the seismic activity that gave rise to them. It’s an exercise in reasonable inference, not foolproof but in my opinion still pretty robust. In my view, it would be well-nigh impossible to get around the very large contribution coming from detonation shocks underneath the towers. One can stretch or lowball the numbers; one can experiment with various alternative schemes to bring down the towers; but no matter how far one takes these manipulations, they will still not be able to account for the massive hidden energy sources that lurk behind the big humps in the Twin Towers charts.

    "You wrote kilograms not tons, I’m assuming that’s a typo. "

    Yes a typo, these happen.

    I do not make any preconceived assumption about the form of the impulse response. I notice that the impulse response in the plane impact for WTC1 has this form in the seismic plot. It depends on the system (which way the signals go to the seismic lab and what happens to them on the way). As the system does not change, we expect a similar impulse response from another impulse. Thus, if there is a fast explosion, like your nuke, it should give a similar shape to the impulse response in the WTC1 case.

    It is exactly because the seismic signal for the plane impact for WTC2 does not have this simple form that I do not look at WTC2. It is enough to look at one tower as you have a nuke in each tower.

    The seismic signal of the plane impact to WTC2 does not have the same type of form. This does not violate any preconceived idea that it should. Impulse response can have multiple peaks and be symmetric as in WTC2, it depends on the poles of the differential operator describing the system. BUT you are not allowed to interpret the form of the impulse response as corresponding to something that happens in the impact. The form can very well (and probably is) be caused by the routes that the signal takes. It is likely that the impact event is similar in both towers, but they are in different places and the rock structure under the towers is different. The symmetric form of the signal may for instance mean that the signal travels several ways that have different delays. I would warn of making any deductions from the signal form.

    The same goes to the seismic signal form for WTC7. It is best not to try to identify what caused the signal. You can, if you want, make a differential operator that produces an impulse response like WTC2. It is only math, but identifying what physical events cause this form is uncertain.

    I still suggest the following very simple analysis:

    Stick to WTC1, it already has a nuke.

    In WTC1 the impulse response for the plane impact impulse is simple and easy to notice.

    If there is an explosion, it is an impulse, it should give a similar impulse response since the system is the same (the signal follows the same routes).

    The seismic signal from the collapse is not similar in shape to the impulse response to the plane impact in WTC1. This means: this signal contains something else.

    What else? From timing we can see that it corresponds to the timing of mass falling from the building (which the second reference that you gave me says it is 5-6 seconds, it is not my claim, it is claim by people who claim to be experts on this field).

    So, fine, the seismic signal for the collapse part of WTC1 has a signal where mass is falling. Does is also have an input response from a nuke explosion?

    This is easy now: if it does have the nuke signal, then this signal is similar in shape to the plane impact signal. Can you find it? Not really. And that's the conclusion. The signal from the explosion may be too weak to be measured.

    You try to make analysis from WTC2 and WTC7 signals. But unlike me here, you have to make assumptions, you identify something as corresponding to something that happened in the impact or in the collapse. I do nothing like that. I avoid assumptions. That is what you should do: minimize assumptions, they are usually wrong. Try to deduce what you are looking for without making assumptions. See that I make no assumptions and come to the conclusion that you cannot even say if there was any explosion at all. I am sure there was an explosion, but I am quite happy with the result that is was a small explosion and does not show in the seismic signals.

    So, I think it is too shaky to identify anything from the seismic signals. You should then write a differential operator that gives those signals and try to match it to physics.

    @j2

    Alright, let's see now. The best estimates we've got of mass and potential energy come from Gregory Urich's paper. According to Urich, the mass of each tower came in at about 300,000 tons and the potential energy, at about 500 GJ. This potential energy is roughly equivalent to 120 tons of TNT.

    https://www.journalof911studies.com/volume/200703/GUrich/MassAndPeWtc.pdf#page=23

    Equipped with these estimates, you can now redo your calculations using better figures. As you can readily see, 300 tons of TNT would represent the equivalent of about two-and-a-half towers' worth of potential energy. Only a fraction of that would however shake the bedrock. The proportion is hard to tell but I'd put it at one-tenth or so, perhaps a little higher.

    You are still stuck in your reading of the seismic charts through certain glasses. I would again advise you to reconsider and to take off those glasses. The statement that "there is this 5-6 seconds long signal" is highly dubious. The duration of the signal depends, of course, on where you draw the line between signal and noise. Even with a very high barrier, you'll end up with a longer signal than 5-6 seconds, and with a reasonably set bar, the signal is more like 20 seconds up at the PAL station.

    The absence of a starting peak at the reading station doesn't imply there is no starting peak at the origin. I've already made this point but it bears repeating, certainly as it apparently didn't register. Semi-open pit detonations are an entirely different beast than earthquakes or deep underground explosions such as nuclear tests. You cannot just take the earthquake schematic off the shelf and apply it to these events we're talking about. That would amount to misapplication. If you look at the Kim et al paper, they served this up on the last page. The North Tower collapse chart sure doesn't look anything like the earthquake chart below. But this is misleading, a comparison of apples to pears. Or even oranges, for our stateside readers.

    If you take a look at the previous page in the same paper, you'll see how the two stations located right on the Hudson River – Pallisades (PAL) and Mount Airy (MANY) – display certain common peculiarities. These are more obvious at MANY than at PAL, but when you look at the PAL chart in this context, you'll realise the signal is not only increasingly distributed but also bifurcates. By the time it gets to MANY, we've got two "humps" of activity. This shows how seismic waves travel in a somewhat different manner along rivers than across ordinary dry land. The other stations do not display these peculiarities, but have single-hump charts.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20240503035027/https://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/LCSN/Eq/20010911_WTC/WTC_LDEO_KIM.pdf#page=8

    Clearly the waves travel at slightly different speeds on either side of the Hudson, and the general transmission speeds are much lower (about 2 km/s) than what is ordinarily thought to apply to S-waves let alone P-waves. What this suggests to me is we're dealing primarily with surface waves (L and R) here, not with deeper earthquake-type waves. So those glasses simply need to come off in order to properly see what's going on in these charts.

    If you look at the one "simple" event we've got in the five WTC charts, namely the South Tower impact chart, you'll see that this, too, is symmetrically distributed. We know this is a plane hitting the tower, which is a well-defined "shock". Even so, by the time it reaches PAL, there is no apparent shock frontier on it, but only a symmetrically distributed hump lasting about 3-4 seconds.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc2impact.jpg

    This chart tells us something about the conditions for propagation from origin to station, and it also tells us that the vertical steel in the buildings worked like a "steel radio" or "tuning fork" transmitting shocks from way up in the buildings down to bedrock and then on to PAL. This, too, is a very important finding as it shows that as long as the "steel radio" is connected to bedrock, the ruckus caused by collapsing buildings will be transmitted down into bedrock and then onto PAL.

    When you apply this to the Twin Towers collapses – and to Building 7, too, for that matter – you'll find there is no such thing as a "5-6 second signal" for the towers. There's a signal of about that duration, or slightly longer, for Building 7 coming down. For the towers, the duration is much longer than that. Video footage shows that the collapses took up towards 20 seconds for the South Tower, and 23-24 seconds for the North Tower. For the most part, the "steel radio" was turned on during the collapses, which means the signals should register at PAL. As the surely did, if you set the signal-to-noise ratio at the appropriate level.

    I'll make one more point here and now. In the Kim & Baum paper, you'll find a "local explosion" in the big multistation chart on page 9. This is a quarry detonation, so is of particular interest for WTC comparison even though it is small potatoes by comparison. The detonation happens somewhere east of Yale (YLE) and also shows up in the Lakeside (LSCT) chart. So it's all local to Connecticut, yet says a lot about the transmission conditions in that general direction, which becomes relevant to the PAL and MANY stations as well.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20030320090510/http://www.mgs.md.gov/esic/publications/download/911pentagon.pdf#page=9

    What's peculiar here is the very low transmission speed, for one, and which amounts to a measly 1 km/s if even that. That's how slowly surface action propagates in this area. The other peculiarity is the bifurcation that shows at LSCT but not at YLE. The explosion apparently generates signals at different frequencies, which travel at slightly different speeds. When they're teased apart, one can readily see the more explosion-like concentrated hump to the left, and the other, more distributed low-frequency hump to the right.

    This quarry blast might seem like an irrelevant footnote, but I think not. It helps us understand not only the nature of the WTC blasts and how they can be expected to manifest themselves in seismic charts, but also the clearly reduced transmission speeds seen in the PAL-MANY direction compared to other inland directions. I think that adds an important layer to our understanding of the seismic activity that took place at the World Trade Center on 9/11. Mind you, this is a jigsaw puzzle where we try to fit the pieces together to the best of our ability, and that's precisely why I wanted to hear your take on these issues. As it stands right now, I find it hard to agree with your interpretation, but then we've only just got started. It's an iterative process, and I feel I can benefit from your observations even when I do not agree with them.

    I'll stop here for now. There is absolutely no rush with this, so don't feel pressed. Besides, Mr Marshall's advertised Part 3 isn't out yet, so there will be plenty of time to continue discussion in that comment section as well, when the time comes.

    I will rewrite my answer to you in a clearer way.

    Let’s start with the plane impact to WTC1. The seismic signal looks like a typical impulse response. Impulse is the nearly instantaneous impact of the plane, the system is the whole building and ground transporting the signal to the seismic lab. The signal that this system outputs, i.e., what the plot shows, is the input response. The system cannot transport infinitely fast changes (technically, it cuts high frequencies), so the signal rises slower and then it decreases slowly as the system oscillates after an impulse. This plot looks very clean and good. The plane impact on WTC2 is not so good, the signal comes many ways, we will not look at the plots for WTC2.

    If there is an explosion in WTC1 before the collapse begins, it is another impulse to the same system. It should give a similar input response, but looking at the plot of the collapse of WTC1, the plot is not similar to the plane impact. What does this mean?

    As this plot corresponds to the time when the building collapses and material falls, we can suspect that this plot also shows signals generated by falling material. So, there could be an input response to the nuclear explosion overlayed on signals coming from falling material. How can we explain this plot?

    There are three ways:
    1. It could be that the plot only shows falling material (this is like the official story says it is), and there was no explosion at all.

    2. It could be that there was an explosion, but it was too small to be measured in the seismic station (like if it was 1000 TNT) and the plot only shows falling material.

    3. It could be that there was a large explosion by a nuke, but to the ground and seismic signal went so little that it cannot be measured. The plot only shows falling material.

    4. It could be that the explosion was large enough to be measured and it is the first peak in the signal, the rest is falling material.

    5. It could be that the explosion was large enough to be measured, it is the first peak, but also the explosion was big, it was a small nuke, but only very little went to the seismic signal.

    and so on.

    As a result, we have too many possible explanations, we do not learn anything from these plots.

    The North Tower impact chart* does not reflect a "simple" event but a "complex" or "combined" one. It involves a large detonation in the basement, which comes first, and then also the airliner impacting. These two events come 9 seconds apart. We know this as they were even recorded on audio tape in a nearby conference room.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc1impact.jpg

    You'll also see that the total activity in the North Tower impact chart amounts to about 4x that of the South Tower impact. If you go through the motions, you'll arrive at around 240 aus of activity for the North Tower. It goes without saying that there is a lot more going on there than just the airliner hitting the tower. The airliner accounts for only about one-quarter of the activity that registered.

    The South Tower impact chart, on the other hand, shows a "clean" event, namely the airliner impacting the tower. The vertical steel transmits the signal down to bedrock, which then conveys it to PAL. The very same mechanism is in effect for the North Tower impact chart as well, but like I said there is more going on down in the basement about 9 seconds before the airliner hits.

    So clearly they carried out some preparatory explosions that were supposed to be synced with the airliner striking, but ended up going off 9 seconds early. This is a key piece of evidence against the official story of the towers collapsing purely from impacts and ensuing fires.

    Bessent had to backstop the Japanese Yen in order to prevent the Japanese Central Bank from selling their US Treasuries. But that's a "band-aid" solution to the underlying wound caused by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz which choked off 90% of Japan's oil imports from the Middle East. If Iran refuses to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, Japan's economy would inevitably grind to a halt.

    The same predicament applies to the Arab Sheikdoms which have lost close to five months worth of oil revenues due to Trump's Iran War. They too would need to sell their US Treasuries in order to pay their bills. So that explains why Bessent agreed to backstop the UAE which was granted a USD swap line with the USA.

    The US Treasuries are not your typical government bond because they serve as the reserve asset of Central Banks all over the world. Additionally, they serve as the reserve asset of the US banking/financial system from whence every loan is hypothecated. A massive selloff of US Treasuries by the JCB or GCC would increase their yields which would automatically percolate throughout the entire US banking/financial system. The US government would be forced to pay higher interest rates for future issuance of its US Treasuries in order to fund its budget deficits. Borrowing costs would increase for everyone, from Main Street homebuyers to Wall Street hedge funds, leading to the precipitous decline in the housing industry and stock market, respectively.

    There is a financial crisis happening in Asia, from the Arab Sheikdoms in the Middle East to Japan in East Asia. If not contained by Bessent's timely intervention, the financial crisis would have crossed the Pacific Ocean to hit the US economy. But Bessent's "band-aid" is only temporary. What needs to happen fast is the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz so that Arab oil should flow once again -- safely and securely -- to Japan payable in USD from which the GCC would then recycle those Petrodollars back to US Treasuries. That's the Petrodollar System which Trump's Iran War had all but destroyed. And that system is the very thing keeping the US economy afloat for five decades.

    I am no expert here, and I would like to hear others’ views on this, but it seems that the US is relying on an ever-increasing array of financial contrivances to maintain its reserve currency status. At some critical juncture, the piper must be paid.
     
    The crucial issue is the creditworthiness of the federal state. Because America needs time to re-industrialize to undo decades of neolib mismanagement, and while that is achieved (if ever) America needs capital inflows.

    America is a deficit nation, it needs constant influx of capital to pay for basic things. By 2025 the Net International Investment Position was -28 trillion.

    For the influx of capital to be much larger than the outflows, it is necessary that the value of the US$ vis-a-vis other currencies that are or could be as abundant as the US$, be high, so lenders think they will be payed with good money.

    Yet financial trickery cann't go too far.

    America needs to do two things at the same time to remain creditworthy: (1) attack and rob enemies, and (2) consume and rob allies. Essentially, increase assets.

    That's what behind the desire to annex Greenland and Canada (consume allies) and the attack on Venezuela (attack enemies): to remain creditworthy by presenting a larger pool of assets to international creditors.

    So to contribute to your thinking, America is not relying entirely on financial chicaneries, it is also trying to increase assets by taking over property of other states.

    It is not a bad strategy. Actually, it's what has to be done, IMO. The problem is that American leadership at the highest level is low-IQ so it is easily distracted from the main strategy by actors like Israel, so the strategy of attacking enemies and consuming allies has been implemented poorly.

    Israel is using America as proxy by playing on the 'attack enemies' aspect of the strategy, but a much easier and productive path is to consume allies. Our idiot president was convinced that attacking Iran would be an easy achievement of the 'attack enemies' aspect of the general strategy, because, well, because he's an idiot.

    Other people told him, focus on annexing Greenland, then perhaps Canada, Greenland is low-hanging fruit, but the idiot was easily led down the harder sub-strategy 'attack enemies'.

    There is a lot to be said for this model. If I recall correctly, Col. Jacques Baud, a former Swiss intelligence officer, who has been sanctioned by the EU for promoting “Russian propaganda”, has said much the same thing. That is, the US does what it does because it can no longer do anything else and maintain creditworthiness. The US has become much like a junky who has to continue putting a needle into his veins to continue functioning and where getting clean is no longer an option.

    There is an anecdote that I recall from a biography of Nikita Khrushchev that ties into this:

    A Jewish woman wrote to Khrushchev asking for help in restoring her property in the Ukraine.
    He wrote back that he couldn't help because the Ukrainians had bitter memories about the Jewish role in the Holodomar, or something to that effect.

    Khrushchev himself was reviled as the "Butcher of the Ukraine". That such a man would mark out the Jewish role in that is telling.

    Replies: @Rurik

    …because the Ukrainians had bitter memories about the Jewish role in the Holodomar, or something to that effect.

    I check out RT routinely, and there is a strong undercurrent there regarding the ‘glorification of Nazis’, by former Soviet satellite states, like the Baltics and Ukraine, in particular.

    I think it is this lingering hostility over the harsh repressions and pogroms of the Bolshevik / Soviet period, that is driving the hatred between the Eastern Europe vs. Russia. And it’s all basically over ‘the narrative’, of the Red Army having “liberated” Eastern Europe from the ultimate evil, ‘the Nazis’.

    The problem is, that it isn’t as cut and dry as Russia, (and Hollywood), would like to have it. WWII was not, (all the Hollywood movies notwithstanding), a conflict between pure good, (the Allies) vs. pure evil (the ‘Nazis’).

    https://www.rt.com/russia/644116-ukraine-rebury-nazi-collaborator/

    The millions of men, (Russian, Ukrainian and others) who lost family in the Holodomor and gulags, and fought the Red Army, were not ‘traitors to Russia’, and ‘evil Nazis’, as Russia would have us believe. But Russia, for some reason, remains very strident on this issue. So much so, that I think they’d be willing to go WWIII, just to protect that (absurd) narrative, of the Red Army as great, heroic “liberators”. (They weren’t ; )

    For the record, I support Russia in its current conflict with ZOG. 100%

    And that is the reason I bring this up, [hopefully, not too far ot) because both the Russian people, and the Eastern European people, suffered unimaginably during that Jewish supremacist orchestrated madness from 1914 to 1945, and beyond..

    It’s time for all the Christians over there, to stop hating each other, over past, nationalistic, parochial hostilities, and finally, finally see who their real enemies have been all along. Zelinsky the Jew, (along with ((NATO)), is doing all he can to slaughter as many Ukrainian and Russian young men as possible. Ukrainians and Russians and everyone else over there, should not play into their hands, any longer.

    First off, please Russia, stop insisting that all the men who fought the Red Army, were evil Nazis.

    That is absurd, and is counter-productive.

    Let them honor the victims of the Holodomor, and their fallen heroes, as they see fit. It is not done as a slight against modern Russia. I, (for one) want very much to see rapprochement, and for Germany to start buying Russian gas, and so forth. That is my hope.

    And the only ones I see who would be opposed to that, are the supremacist, war-loving Jews, and a few Russians and Europeans who want to cling to ultra-nationalist hatreds from those ((orchestrated)) 20th century wars.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20140225071325/http://www.judicialwatch.org/archive/2007/Saudi%20Docs%202.pdf

    Do you attribute that to backdoor influence? That at least is a bit more plausible.
     

    Do I attribute that to backdoor influence? Yes.

    But the Bin Laden's were simply related to OBL. The "Dancing Israelis" were actually observed engaged in suspicious behavior, and had already been detained. It might have aroused suspicions to release them right away.

    In any event, your supposition that there was no backdoor influence in the release of the Doric Towers Five is just that.......supposition.


    > the Israeli spy ring.

    Was AOK’d by the CIA. The CIA has a long record of using foreign intelligence agencies to carry on domestic spying which the CIA is formally prohibited from doing. The South Korean intelligence agencies have been used in a similar way. The Israelis did definitely communicate some type of intelligence to the CIA over Muslim terrorists. Maybe they didn’t communicate everything they could have, that’s hard to say. But it was acknowledged that they gave some reports. In general, it seems clear that the FBI and CIA between themselves had enough data to figure everything out.
     

    I was talking about the Israeli spy ring of "Art Students". The ones who were spying on the DEA and other agencies. Did the CIA feel the need to spy on the DEA? And, in any event, isn't your interpretation of events itself kind of - I don't know - huge!? Oh, yeah, the CIA compounds with foreign spy agencies to illegally spy in America. Nothing to see here, citizen.

    It’s always difficult to say how far things like that go, simply because different parties will take advantage of circumstances. If the CIA agrees to wink and look the other way while Israel carries out intelligence work, then they expect to get something, but it’s possible that some things done by Israelis operating in such circumstances may reach elsewhere. However, on just the matter of alleged Al Qaeda terrorists operating in the USA, we have the following:

    … The Mossad apparently warned their American counterparts several times about the terrorists, especially about al-Midhar. The American government later admitted that they had received such warnings prior to September 11. But at most that there were attacks planned against American installations outside the United States.

    Die Zeit has learned that a few weeks before the attacks, Israeli intelligence gave US authorities a list with names of suspects who were staying in the US for the purpose of preparing attacks. Apparently not until shortly before September 11 did the CIA recognize that al-Midhar was dangerous and asked law enforcement agencies to look for him.

    FBI and CIA officials were advised in August that as many as 200 terrorists were slipping into this country and planning “a major assault on the United States,” a high-ranking law enforcement official said Wednesday.

    The advisory was passed on by the Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency. It cautioned that it had picked up indications of a “large-scale target” in the United States and that Americans would be “very vulnerable,” the official said.

    It is not known whether U.S. authorities thought the warning to be credible, or whether it contained enough details to allow counter-terrorism teams to come up with a response.

    If we adopt the version of a conspiracy where the whole Arab attack is fake, then this would have to be considered as just a game played between FBI, CIA, Mossad to gin up a belief in Arab hijackers. But if we accept that the Arab hijackers are real, then what would be the point of the Mossad communicating such messages to the FBI and CIA, if they didn’t want the attack to be stopped? Wouldn’t it make more sense to just say nothing, if the Israelis were really planning on deliberately allowing the attack to succeed?

    “Trump is the captain of the Titanic and he is steering us into an iceberg.”

    As the joke goes… Iceberg, Goldberg, What’s the difference.

  • Bessent had to backstop the Japanese Yen in order to prevent the Japanese Central Bank from selling their US Treasuries. But that’s a “band-aid” solution to the underlying wound caused by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz which choked off 90% of Japan’s oil imports from the Middle East. If Iran refuses to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, Japan’s economy would inevitably grind to a halt.

    The same predicament applies to the Arab Sheikdoms which have lost close to five months worth of oil revenues due to Trump’s Iran War. They too would need to sell their US Treasuries in order to pay their bills. So that explains why Bessent agreed to backstop the UAE which was granted a USD swap line with the USA.

    The US Treasuries are not your typical government bond because they serve as the reserve asset of Central Banks all over the world. Additionally, they serve as the reserve asset of the US banking/financial system from whence every loan is hypothecated. A massive selloff of US Treasuries by the JCB or GCC would increase their yields which would automatically percolate throughout the entire US banking/financial system. The US government would be forced to pay higher interest rates for future issuance of its US Treasuries in order to fund its budget deficits. Borrowing costs would increase for everyone, from Main Street homebuyers to Wall Street hedge funds, leading to the precipitous decline in the housing industry and stock market, respectively.

    There is a financial crisis happening in Asia, from the Arab Sheikdoms in the Middle East to Japan in East Asia. If not contained by Bessent’s timely intervention, the financial crisis would have crossed the Pacific Ocean to hit the US economy. But Bessent’s “band-aid” is only temporary. What needs to happen fast is the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz so that Arab oil should flow once again — safely and securely — to Japan payable in USD from which the GCC would then recycle those Petrodollars back to US Treasuries. That’s the Petrodollar System which Trump’s Iran War had all but destroyed. And that system is the very thing keeping the US economy afloat for five decades.

    Stalin was certainly a Communist. Both he and Lenin were forced to conclude that much of Marxist theory was bunk but they kept to the plan of eliminating capitalism and private ownership. It was Stalin that killed over a million people from his collective farming plans. Basically forcing farmers to work state owned lands that were managed by Communists that knew nothing about farming or economics.

    Generally what happens is when Americans evaluate a different culture they use a filter system that had been created for them in the late nineteenth/early twentieth century (and I am beginning to suspect perhaps much earlier) which is designed to channel evaluations along the course of everything American is superior and the proper way of doing things and so if an American sees something in a different culture that negates that viewpoint he or she automatically thinks that something must be a conscious fake or it is just a very minor exception to the general "foreign bad" rule. This affects almost every American due to their growing up in that cultural context although some do experience cognitive dissonance.

    Just look at political debates, read old editorial opinions, watch archived documentaries made in the US from say 1950 (or even 1900) onwards to now; they are all quite limited in options and straddle a very restricted political spectrum. That's not just peculiar cultural quirk-it is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    Or even better-reread the opinions of some of the long-time trolls lurking here on the Unz forum. Sure some of them are organized hasbara but alongside these are some individuals that probably see themselves as independent thinkers yet once they write their comment they basically unconsciously regurgitate the channeled opinions of elite decision-makers. More than once if someone points out a contradiction they defend themselves that the contradiction is fake propaganda created by America's nefarious enemies. They might not realize it but their opinions were basically created for them and channeled along a specific course.

    The history of the American experiment is as complicated as the Founding Fathers were complicated.

    No one can dispute that democratic institutions unprecedented in world history, except save Switzerland, evolved due to independence two-hundred and fifty years ago but remember men like Washington and Jefferson were self-contradictory;

    -being children of the Enlightenment they encouraged secularism, voting for offices, non-hereditary institutions etc. yet at the same time they were plantation-owning oligarchs thus they had incentive to limit the sharing of power they themselves encouraged.

    That America developed democratic institution in the first place I feel might have been caused by the happy fact the Founders had few sons. Washington's balls didn't work due childhood sickness and Jefferson had only grown-up daughters and too infatuated with his dusky GFs to marry again and raise legitimate sons.

    If they had more sons they would need to guarantee some source of income for their younger sons (the oldest would have gotten the plantation) as is wont of aristocratic governments throughout history.

    The American government would thus be reserved for younger sons of oligarchs and America as a country would have developed as a typical Latin American country with the latifundia class dominating every single institution.

    However, not really needing to care about guaranteeing a future for a bunch of sons that did not exist the American elite could afford to be generous and share (at least for a bit).

    It is interesting what happened fifty years later in the Age of Jackson. Jacksonian Democracy entailed that yeoman class would reach the highest echelons of political power and with political power would eventually come economic power.

    What happened next? Roughly about the same time that the elites were threatened with marginalization came the creation of weird cults like the pre-JW's , the Spiritualists, the Mormons etc. Each of these cults stressed the importance of living submissively so as to be fit for the next world. Overnight a society that was highly secular developed brand new spiritual creeds stressing the next world instead of living in this world.

    Weird that America lived through this not only once but several times when class tensions became very prominent. Weird also that America is basically the only European/European-derived country that undergoes this process, time and time again.

    I would argue that these bizarre cults, if not created by the elites were at least encouraged by the elites so as to develop a submissive, non-alcoholic workforce. After all, Las Vegas mafiosos knew that Mormons made the best casino employees, unlike Italians and Jews, they didn't pilfer money but were absolutely honest and submissive as the cash rolled in.

    Anyways to skip a bunch of time and a bunch of other stuff and to make a long story short-

    Going into the Twentieth Century, it is fairly clear that as I have stated before:

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    After all, Edward Bernays stated this was so and he was actually quite proud of contributing to it.

    Most people are familiar with Edward Bernays because a man named Noam Chomsky (remember him?) wrote thick critiques of American society using Edward Bernays as the template.

    Needless to say we now know those thick critiques were a way of channeling discussions and Noam (although a clever man and a great scientist) was controlled opposition all along. Clever isn't it?

    So to reiterate: Who was Ed Bernays? He contributed to modern societal opinion control but nobody really knew that except that Chomsky suddenly discussed him and thus people wanting change started to talk about Bernays but since Chomsky was the person who mentioned him initially, a discussion of Bernays and societal control was filtered through a Chomsky lens...and Chomsky...was controlled opposition. Again, very clever!

    I still stand by my assertion;

    [America] .. is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    Mr Trump cannot re-institute conscription in the United States only the American Congress can; and the possibility of them doing so when most know it would cost them their positions is exceedingly remote. Young people of today are not stupid. Ukraine can be taken as an example; it is being attacked and invaded, yet still many of its young refuse to fight; imagine a situation in the US where the conflict was a war of choice. It is doubtful young Americans would fight a war where they have no stake. An attempt to bring conscription to America could very well prompt a revolt in the United States. As for an American army fighting a war with China there is no way the USA could get an army near China; North Korea serves as a buffer and the PLN would sink any troop transports long before they reached the vicinity of China. We are probably past the stage where great powers armed with hundreds or thousands of nuclear weapons fight ''meat grinder'' wars of attrition. Most young Americans would probably refuse to be conscripted and there are not enough jails to place them. Talk of conscription is nice; officials must plan for all contingencies but are not realistic.

    @A Competent Physicist


    The ruling establishments always enlist the help of proxies to do their dirty work. This is no secret and you can see it plainly throughout history and in the dozens of Color Revolutions our power centers have surreptitiously organized over this past century. European oligarchs, feudal lords and even the Catholic Church have frequently employed other parties to exploit their own people when they themselves could not do so for practical reasons. When Jewish tax collectors and merchants grew too aggressive in their practices and there was political blowback, there were expulsions. This cycle was repeated so many times, lather, rinse, repeat… Powerful people needed the services of Jews to tax, seize property, etc. from their own people without causing a revolt.

    At this point, it becomes clear how a few Jewish revolutionaries e.g. the Bolsheviks could have such a disproportionate influence. Obviously, if Americans or British were involved in murdering the Romanov families it would be a very bad look for history. The solution was to pick someone else to do the dirty work and project power from behind the scenes. The Anglo empire needed to control the middle east so the modern state of Israel was created through the Balfour declaration...

    Whatever your opinions and beliefs, you can keep them but it’s more profitable to examine them through different lenses. One lens is the Gremlin theory and the other I’ll call the Proxy theory for lack of a better name.
     
    Sure, there's certainly an important element of historical truth in this "Proxy theory." In fact, I'd given it some attention in my first major article on these Jewish issues, published back in 2018:

    Furthermore, Jewish hostility toward non-Jews may often have served the interests of others, and helped determine the economic role that the group filled, especially in European countries, with this factor having been obscured by widespread ignorance of the underlying religious tenets. As most of us know from our history books, political rulers who harshly exploit their subjects sometimes restrict military power to a relatively small group of well-rewarded mercenaries, often of foreign origins so that they will have little sympathy for the population they harshly repress. I strongly suspect that some of the most common traditional economic niches of European Jews, such as tax-farming and the arrenda estate-management system of Eastern Europe, should be best understood in a similar light, with Jews being more likely to extract every last penny of value from the peasants they controlled for the benefit of their local king or lords, and their notorious antipathy for all non-Jews ensuring that such behavior was minimally tempered by any human sympathy. Thus, we should not be surprised that Jews first entered England in the train of William the Conqueror, in order to help him and his victorious Norman lords effectively exploit the subjugated Anglo-Saxon population they now ruled.

    But states in which the vast majority of the population is oppressed and dominated by a thin slice of rulers and their mercenary enforcers tend to be much weaker and more brittle than those in which rulers and ruled share common interests, and I believe this is just as true for economic enforcers as for military ones. In many cases, lands reliant upon Jewish economic intermediaries, notably Poland, never successfully developed a native middle class, and often later fared quite poorly against their nationally-unified competitors.
     
    https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-oddities-of-the-jewish-religion/#the-historical-role-of-jews-in-western-societies

    However, the two theories are not really in any deep conflict, and possible instances of Proxy theory should be considered on a case-by-case historical basis. It's obviously correct in the examples of the Polish arrenda system, the Jewish exploitation of the English under the British monarchs, and numerous other examples. Even in the case of Russia, Jewish alcohol sales to the peasants was an important source of government revenue.

    But I don't think it applies at all in the case of the Jewish colonization of Palestine or the Jewish Bolsheviks. After all, the British had rather mixed feelings about the former during the 1920s and 1930s, and massive Zionist terrorism finally drove them out after WWII. Meanwhile, the Bolshevik Revolution was a total strategic disaster for the Allies in WWI and the British were absolutely opposed to it.

    Also, if we consider the model of Jews often playing the role of "foreign economic mercenaries" that elites often brought in to help exploit their own people, we should consider there's a long history of similar military mercenaries then eventually seizing power for themselves.

    Rather than vacation in a dying usa that’s possibly going to destroy his life and soul by drafting him, a young man’s family should try instead to take him abroad to start getting acclimated to the culture and lifestyle, practice the language practically day to day.

    If the young man is married, get him and his wife to travel and take advantage of birthright citizenship laws, which are present in Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and almost every other country in the Americas. The baby gets citizenship immediately — with a fee, medical exam and vaccines, and paperwork, of course. Just ans important for many families, the parents and siblings typically can apply right away for permanent (lifetime) resident status. The permanent residents often get a fast tracking citizenship just by living a couple-few years in the country, obviating the otherwise applicable requirement to make a large investment, buy a home, make a sizeable donation, open a business and hire local people, or deposit a lot of money into a local bank.

    Leaving a son or grandson with no ready option outside this murderous police state in the making, isn’t a wise plan.

    In 1984 it took a tourist trip through China, landing in Shanghai, which seemed amongst run down colonial buildings to have a rural flavor, the smell of cooking in the streets lined with sycamore trees of the old building and walled compounds with glass along the top edge of the wall...something timeless, parks filled with activity in the morning tai chi, chess, a certain old dignity could be found...and yes the bicycles with getting off the seat to peddle, but all in one flow, freight was carried by bikes pulling carts or pulled by motorized plows...

    We toured schools, factories, everything and I actually gained weight from the wonderful food, watch the fish bones and warm beer....

    We visited various cities and encountered the Mao suits in Bejing, we went by plane which reminded me of flying in america in the 1960's and by train and by boat down the Yangze before the three gorges...

    it was all quite amazing, but when we came to Shenzen we saw what the future would be, and how the diligence of students we met as we toured various schools showed that a certain prowess was being built without the modern distractions, of something America had when my grandfather, then in his eithties on the trip had remembered New York City filled with horses....and it was in Shenzen that we saw the massive buiilding starting to be built and it was quite impresssive...and then Hong Kong of a certain ultra clean sterility to.....for we had seen places like your father's workshop, the small brick kilns along country roads...and had a feeling that a great change was at hand...and at the same time a feeling that something that had outlasted colonialsim, revolutions, etc... might well be lost to the high rises... and cars...

I remember and I guess A123 too (hahaha), how Trump was elected and reelected when he promised (lied) closing all the bases and bringing soldiers home to reduce the spending. Well he morphed into a stupid war president at the level of Caligula, supporting Gaza genocide, bragging about killing sovereign countries leaders, sometime hijacking them, and demanding Nobel (Zionists) peace prize.

    Replies: @A123, @Beckow

    Trump is more like Caesar or Crassus. Caligula and Nero had idiosyncrasies but were not warmongers. Crassus invaded Persia and lost, 40k legionaries died, he ended up as a drinking skull-cup. Caesar assembled 9 legions to invade Persia but was killed 3 days before departure (coincidence? maybe not).

    These Caesar-like characters are common in history. Their modus operandi are noisy promises they have no intention of fulfilling, absurd self-promotion, greed, starting wars. But Trump is only a clown-version of Caesarism, a light-weight poseur. That doesn’t mean he couldn’t cause huge damage. Trump’s lack of gravitas is a reflection on the current state of the Western culture, almost none of is serious any longer.

    Let’s enjoy it while we can, but Caligula was probably a harmless odd-ball who stepped on some oligarchs’s toes and got bad press. Trump just lost a big war in the most randomly brutal way (killing school kids) and with endless lying.

    'May have'? Let me explain it to you: "may have" and "rogue elements" are weasel wiki-like terms used by propaganda sheets like Wikipedia about things the Western overlords want downplayed. Ask "AI" or Wiki about the Gaza massacres or NATO bombing of civilians in Serbia and you will get the same evasive attempt to minimize it.

    It happened: Banderites whether you like it or not were Nazi-allied brutal killers. As long as Ukies celebrate them they have zero chance of becoming a part of Europe in any form. Poland, Slovakia, Czechia suffered most and will block them and openly say so. You can even find it described in your English managed-media. But locally it's unquestionable.

    Another fact not mentioned in your media is that Ukies (mostly Galicians) were the main auxiliary guards in the concentration camps and the troops used to suppress anti-Nazi resistance. No wonder the German descendants of Nazis - like Merz, Baerbock - are so enthusiastic about them. But you won't read much about that in Wiki.

    Boo hoo.

    So it's worth paying attention.

    Some readers are probably wondering: If the yen is tanking why not just raise interest rates and be done with it.

    But they can't, because they have so much debt that the servicing costs alone would bankrupt the country. So they have to engage in all these Micky Mouse manipulations that create fake demand, like Bessents phony currency intervention which torpedoes the free market they are always praising to high heaven. Hypocrites!

    Face it-- Japan is between a rock and a hard place.

    They can't raise rates and they can't selloff US Treasuries to shore up the yen or the US Treasuries market will suffer cardiac arrest dragging down the whole rotten dollar-based scaffolding that is already hanging by a thread.

    The basic problem is that everyone on Wall Street (all the hedge funds, Private equity and retirement funds) have been making gobs of dough thru interest differential --borrowing money for nothing in Japan and investing in 5% bonds in the US. The whole carry trade is an elitist money making scam that benefits no one except the pedophilia elites who run Wall Street. So when rates go up, all these money-grubbing child molesters will take it in the shorts and the whole filthy machine will grind to a halt.

    Then Israel will have to fight its own bloody wars.

    Alcohol: Imports of U.S. alcoholic beverages plummeted by 81% after several Canadian provincial liquor boards systematically removed American products from retail shelves in response to U.S. policies.

    Industrial Inputs: Sectors hit by retaliatory tariffs forced Canadian businesses to seek alternative suppliers, either domestically or from other global markets.

    -- Genocidal Hamas never negotiated in good faith. There was no way to talk them into being reasonable.
    -- Rational observers see that the IDF largely did the best they could. Hamas, and their co-conspirator genocidal UNRWA, built combat facilities in and under civilian infrastructure.

    Trump supports the Board with Peace agreement for Gaza, which requires Hamas to disarm. Has genocidal Hamas disarmed yet? When will they? Never?

    I expect this is another example of bad faith on their side. While parts of the BoP deal sound good, Hamas will prevent it coming to fruition.

    The ruling establishments always enlist the help of proxies to do their dirty work. This is no secret and you can see it plainly throughout history and in the dozens of Color Revolutions our power centers have surreptitiously organized over this past century. European oligarchs, feudal lords and even the Catholic Church have frequently employed other parties to exploit their own people when they themselves could not do so for practical reasons. When Jewish tax collectors and merchants grew too aggressive in their practices and there was political blowback, there were expulsions. This cycle was repeated so many times, lather, rinse, repeat… Powerful people needed the services of Jews to tax, seize property, etc. from their own people without causing a revolt.

    At this point, it becomes clear how a few Jewish revolutionaries e.g. the Bolsheviks could have such a disproportionate influence. Obviously, if Americans or British were involved in murdering the Romanov families it would be a very bad look for history. The solution was to pick someone else to do the dirty work and project power from behind the scenes. The Anglo empire needed to control the middle east so the modern state of Israel was created through the Balfour declaration...

    Whatever your opinions and beliefs, you can keep them but it’s more profitable to examine them through different lenses. One lens is the Gremlin theory and the other I’ll call the Proxy theory for lack of a better name.
     
    Sure, there's certainly an important element of historical truth in this "Proxy theory." In fact, I'd given it some attention in my first major article on these Jewish issues, published back in 2018:

    Furthermore, Jewish hostility toward non-Jews may often have served the interests of others, and helped determine the economic role that the group filled, especially in European countries, with this factor having been obscured by widespread ignorance of the underlying religious tenets. As most of us know from our history books, political rulers who harshly exploit their subjects sometimes restrict military power to a relatively small group of well-rewarded mercenaries, often of foreign origins so that they will have little sympathy for the population they harshly repress. I strongly suspect that some of the most common traditional economic niches of European Jews, such as tax-farming and the arrenda estate-management system of Eastern Europe, should be best understood in a similar light, with Jews being more likely to extract every last penny of value from the peasants they controlled for the benefit of their local king or lords, and their notorious antipathy for all non-Jews ensuring that such behavior was minimally tempered by any human sympathy. Thus, we should not be surprised that Jews first entered England in the train of William the Conqueror, in order to help him and his victorious Norman lords effectively exploit the subjugated Anglo-Saxon population they now ruled.

    But states in which the vast majority of the population is oppressed and dominated by a thin slice of rulers and their mercenary enforcers tend to be much weaker and more brittle than those in which rulers and ruled share common interests, and I believe this is just as true for economic enforcers as for military ones. In many cases, lands reliant upon Jewish economic intermediaries, notably Poland, never successfully developed a native middle class, and often later fared quite poorly against their nationally-unified competitors.

    However, the two theories are not really in any deep conflict, and possible instances of Proxy theory should be considered on a case-by-case historical basis. It's obviously correct in the examples of the Polish arrenda system, the Jewish exploitation of the English under the British monarchs, and numerous other examples. Even in the case of Russia, Jewish alcohol sales to the peasants was an important source of government revenue.

    But I don't think it applies at all in the case of the Jewish colonization of Palestine or the Jewish Bolsheviks. After all, the British had rather mixed feelings about the former during the 1920s and 1930s, and massive Zionist terrorism finally drove them out after WWII. Meanwhile, the Bolshevik Revolution was a total strategic disaster for the Allies in WWI and the British were absolutely opposed to it.

    Also, if we consider the model of Jews often playing the role of "foreign economic mercenaries" that elites often brought in to help exploit their own people, we should consider there's a long history of similar military mercenaries then eventually seizing power for themselves.

    Israel Shahak had claimed Ashkenazi Jewdom of yore were shaped by their massively insular-community-influential Rabbis, and a Rabbi-controlled breeding selection process thereby took place, to up-regulate the traits better suited for the proxy role you and commenter ‘A Competent Physicist’ outline.

    Perhaps the resulting cohort (the Ashkenazi) therefore now tends towards ‘proxy-acting’. As such, perhaps a ‘proxy-using’ cohort moves to fill a ‘proxy-using’ niche vacated by the emergent western liberal mindset. Perhaps said ‘proxy-using’ niche-fillers are Zionist billionairists (like I have been claiming for years and years now). If so, the Zionist billionairist ‘proxy-using niche-fillers’ motives are of ultimate importance with respect to untangling current world geopolitics, as I have also claimed for years and years now. Just what power grab would they be trying to consolidate?

    As well, otherwise, accordingly, the shoe fits re the dramatic (and crazy sounding, at first blush) psychological descriptions I have offered, with respect to ‘Israel the psycho-cunt’ as resultant of the pimp-needing ‘prostitute’ role.

    Well, we're finally getting somewhere. After submitting the village names of Ulic, Nova Sedlica and Kolbasov, the AI search engine that you've diparaged spewed this out:


    The villages of Ulič, Kolbasov, and Nová Sedlica in northeastern Slovakia were not entirely destroyed or burned down during the post-WWII era, but they were the sites of notorious violent raids and targeted murders in late November and early December 1945. Contemporary Czechoslovak security reports attributed these atrocities to the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) — widely known locally as banderovci. Modern historical research notes that while UPA units did conduct logistical and propaganda raids into the region, some specific localized massacres may have involved rogue elements, copycat criminal gangs, or internal security subunits operating under that gui

    …some specific localized massacres may have involved rogue elements

    May have‘? Let me explain it to you: “may have” and “rogue elements” are weasel wiki-like terms used by propaganda sheets like Wikipedia about things the Western overlords want downplayed. Ask “AI” or Wiki about the Gaza massacres or NATO bombing of civilians in Serbia and you will get the same evasive attempt to minimize it.

    It happened: Banderites whether you like it or not were Nazi-allied brutal killers. As long as Ukies celebrate them they have zero chance of becoming a part of Europe in any form. Poland, Slovakia, Czechia suffered most and will block them and openly say so. You can even find it described in your English managed-media. But locally it’s unquestionable.

    Another fact not mentioned in your media is that Ukies (mostly Galicians) were the main auxiliary guards in the concentration camps and the troops used to suppress anti-Nazi resistance. No wonder the German descendants of Nazis – like Merz, Baerbock – are so enthusiastic about them. But you won’t read much about that in Wiki.

    Whitney did not elaborate on the fact that the US sold euros, not dollars, to prop up the yen. But he did use the word "surprisingly" to characterize this move.

    I speculated on this very issue at the beginning of August, suggesting that this would have the effect of devaluing the euro in relation to the dollar and thus have the effect of at least partially cancelling out the effects of the 15% tariffs (50% on metals) placed on European goods. That is, no matter what they do, it is a constant process of choosing the lesser of two evils, which in turn continues to feed a downward spiral.

    I am no expert here, and I would like to hear others' views on this, but it seems that the US is relying on an ever-increasing array of financial contrivances to maintain its reserve currency status. At some critical juncture, the piper must be paid.

    The idea that the "Fed can generate new debt into infinity" sounds no different than a perpetual motion machine or cold fusion energy to me. It defies physics. There is no such thing as a limitless function that is also practical, and you cannot ever get anything for nothing. For example, every unit of energy converted into work requires some amount of matter to be converted into energy in either a chemical or nuclear reaction. We live in a physical universe, and every monetary and fiscal maneuver is ultimately grounded in the real world, like it or not. Even if reduced to the effort of sheer mental belief, it still requires the brain to burn glucose, i.e. the brain’s fuel, to achieve the synaptic activity between neurons that underpins the idea. Again, you never get anything for nothing, not even your fantasies.

    The crucial issue is the creditworthiness of the federal state. Because America needs time to re-industrialize to undo decades of neolib mismanagement, and while that is achieved (if ever) America needs capital inflows.

    America is a deficit nation, it needs constant influx of capital to pay for basic things. By 2025 the Net International Investment Position was -28 trillion.

    For the influx of capital to be much larger than the outflows, it is necessary that the value of the US$ vis-a-vis other currencies that are or could be as abundant as the US$, be high, so lenders think they will be payed with good money.

    Yet financial trickery cann’t go too far.

    America needs to do two things at the same time to remain creditworthy: (1) attack and rob enemies, and (2) consume and rob allies. Essentially, increase assets.

    That’s what behind the desire to annex Greenland and Canada (consume allies) and the attack on Venezuela (attack enemies): to remain creditworthy by presenting a larger pool of assets to international creditors.

    So to contribute to your thinking, America is not relying entirely on financial chicaneries, it is also trying to increase assets by taking over property of other states.

    It is not a bad strategy. Actually, it’s what has to be done, IMO. The problem is that American leadership at the highest level is low-IQ so it is easily distracted from the main strategy by actors like Israel, so the strategy of attacking enemies and consuming allies has been implemented poorly.

    Israel is using America as proxy by playing on the ‘attack enemies’ aspect of the strategy, but a much easier and productive path is to consume allies. Our idiot president was convinced that attacking Iran would be an easy achievement of the ‘attack enemies’ aspect of the general strategy, because, well, because he’s an idiot.

    Other people told him, focus on annexing Greenland, then perhaps Canada, Greenland is low-hanging fruit, but the idiot was easily led down the harder sub-strategy ‘attack enemies’.

    There is a lot to be said for this model. If I recall correctly, Col. Jacques Baud, a former Swiss intelligence officer, who has been sanctioned by the EU for promoting "Russian propaganda", has said much the same thing. That is, the US does what it does because it can no longer do anything else and maintain creditworthiness. The US has become much like a junky who has to continue putting a needle into his veins to continue functioning and where getting clean is no longer an option.

    I apologize for hurling at you my Hebrew invective. I haven’t used that expression in 20 years since I left the unholy land.
     
    Don't sweat it, Menachem.

    But thank you for so saying. Much appreciated.

    Haym Salomon loaned money to James Madison, James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson, Edmund Randolph, and James Wilson. These loans were directly out of his own pocket to cover their everyday living costs so they didn't have to abandon their posts and go home. Technically, they were personal loans, the debt of which Salomon effectively gifted or chose not to enforce. As such, they were never legal liabilities of the United States federal government.

    Yet on conducting further research, it appears he did back government debt using his own personal signature and credit, guaranteeing that if the government failed to pay, he would. He also provided emergency war funding.

    However, the hundreds of thousands of dollars in government paper certificates and IOUs Salomon held became virtually worthless after the war due to hyperinflation. When he died in 1785, his estate held stacks of these depreciated government paper assets. Later claims by his family focused on asking Congress to redeem those notes at face value, but Congress treated them like all other war-era paper debt, which had collapsed in value. As such, the issue of non-repayment came down to currency devaluation rather than an unpaid cash contract.

    As such, I don't see any merit to the theory that Salomon was some kind of proxy for massive, unpayable debt to Israel.

    Do you have any empathy for the Jews Hitler forced to move to Palestine under the Transfer Agreement? What should they have done if not go there? What should they do today?
     
    I have empathy for anyone who's compelled to flee their home through no fault of their own, but you should know that their immigration to Palestine was merely adding fuel to the fire, particularly given the injustices visited upon indigenous Palestinians for over half a century beforehand. I don't particularly care to entertain counterfactual ideas about what might have been best, but in retrospect, it obviously wasn't a good idea -- hindsight being 20/20 and all.

    If Jews want to redeem themselves, they should begin by returning to an ontology that conceives of God as The One responsible for the existence and goodness reflected in all humankind, not just their own. It's okay for any religious adherent to affirm the superiority of his faith, so long as this affirmation does not also impinge upon baseline, inviolable rights of others not subscribing to it. This is where most of today's Jews have gone astray. Begin there, and the rest will follow.

    As for Europe, I'm informed of it simply through what I read, watch, and listen to. (Thanks for the Ludvig Van, BTW. 🕶️)

    I think the agony and travail in Palestine and throughout the Middle East is Hitler’s revenge and last laugh since it very much emanates from his policies.
     
    I'm more inclined to agree with our illustrious web host when he avers that Nazism is 'Judaism for wimps', though as I mentioned earlier to Iris, I let others define their faith for me, then judge that explanation against the ensuing evidence. It usually works better for me than pretending I'm omniscient. 🕶️

    Jewish supremacism is frankly disgusting. Even if a person really thinks he’s superior, rubbing it into other people’s faces is guaranteed to provoke violent hatred and disdain. It’s a totally self-defeating and immature behavior.

    I’ve never particularly liked Jewish people or Jewish culture. When my parents sent me to Hebrew school when I was maybe 8 years old I cried the whole first week. I had little to do with Jewish students in my schools and almost nothing to do with the local synagogue Jewish summer camps and things like that. I don’t know how I was bit by the Zionist bug in college. It’s a long story but a diversion I don’t want to go into now. But it was very atypical because my parents never talked about Israel and were very cosmopolitan. The very kind of German Jews that Hitler vilified to their great bewilderment.

    Most of my friends in high school were the product of a mixed marriage between a Jewish professor father and a Christian mother. I had one pure Jewish friend and that friendship did not last. When I went to college and came face to face with the noxious northeastern Jews of New York New England and so forth I totally freaked out. I could not bear their rancid personalities their insecurity their constantly projecting their own flaws unto others. I actually thought that the Israelis were a step up because they had a lot of self-confidence and bravado and did not have that obnoxious victimhood mentality of American Jews especially from New York.

    I’m glad you liked the Beethoven clip. I’ve watched that particular performance probably 20 times. It’s one of the most inspiring things I have ever seen. It’s the confluence of cultures that overwhelms me. The conductor is an Argentinian Jew who told Israel to phuk off when they tried to stop him from performing Wagner. The orchestra consists of Palestinian and Israeli musicians. The choir is English. The four soloists are a Russisn and German Jew and two German Christians. It’s performed in London and the composer is the great German Beethoven. This performance represents to me the best of humanity working together to produce something of epic beauty. I give Barenboim a lot of credit for transcending Jewish particularism and drawing the best out of a diverse group of people. I suspect Netanyahu loathes Daniel Barenboim because he proves that Palestinians are as talented and accomplished as Israelis and that they can work together harmoniously. And that’s because Barenboim treats them with dignity and respect.

    I’ve often told my Christian friends that the only person I want to meet in heaven is Beethoven. They’re shocked and and say “What about Jesus? What about Peter and Paul?” I say I don’t want to meet any of those religious extremists. I love Beethoven because he gave his beautiful gift of music to the entire world to make people feel good. He doesn’t judge he doesn’t condemn he doesn’t instruct indoctrinate control or manipulate. He simply provides the incredible gift of his beautiful music. And it’s even more extraordinary because he became completely deaf. That Ninth Symphony is a total gift to humanity from which he derived zero personal pleasure. This to me is the ultimate act of selfless altruism. I would say it’s comparable to Christ dying on the cross for the sake of humanity.

    This is a movie depiction of Beethoven conducting the premier performance of the symphony. He enters a reverie which is their way of explaining why he kept conducting after the orchestra finished because he was daydreaming about his youth. The movie claims that Beethoven’s deafness was the result of his father beating him with an iron poker whenever he performed poorly. In the scene Beethoven fantasizes escaping from his father’s wrath. It’s very powerful:

I think we would be living in a much more dignified and cultured place than the sewer America has unleashed on the rest of the world.

    After 20 largely unhappy years in the United States I can summarize this sick and vile society thus:

    Americans are spiritually and intellectually shallow. The society is a cultural wasteland. Christians are total narcissists constantly begging God’s affirming love and blessings without ever being willing to stand up for his truth. The capital is far away from most of the population. The government is totally unaccountable to the people. It engages in depraved and violent conflicts all across the globe of which Americans are largely blissfully unaware. However I believe the bad karma from these evil actions poisons society back home.

    America is a stratified society consisting of a small elite of unfathomably rich and powerful Jews and Christians while the rest of the country are basically debt slaves to the international banking system. These elites are ransacking all of our national resources and destroying our society in their zeal to prop up their Jewish-proxy end times Christian Crusader State in the Middle East. They are like sharks in a feeding frenzy. The more the country sinks into ruin the more they try to steal the national resources for this pathetic experiment in racial engineering.

    There is no truth in the American church. The average American is a coward and a wimp, totally unable to stand up courageously for anything. Americans are heavily armed with billions of rounds of ammunition claiming it’s to preserve our freedoms. But the only freedom these gun owners will fight for is the freedom to buy more guns and ammunition and waste their time at the range practicing.

    America needs to be subdued from without. Many of us hoped that Putin’s Russia would deal us a humbling blow but that does not seem in the offing either. Putin sat in Syria for 10 years with the Russian military and turned a blind eye to Israel’s almost daily bombing runs over that country.

    I don’t know what the answer is but no one should look to America for leadership courage vision or sacrifice. America will sacrifice the whole world for its narrow short-sighted selfish greedy goals.

    Americans are like pigs rolling in the mud of Gaza and slopping up from the trough of Christian Zionist propaganda and Jew-infatuation.

    The Iranians were right all along when they spoke of the Big Satan and the little satan. Uncle Sam Big Satan and bibi little satan.

    NB In my town in Colorado there is something called The House of Prayer, which is a church that was purchased and converted into a worship center. Every day from 12-4pm it’s open for people to come sit in the pews pray meditate contemplate or whatever. There are people there who can pray with you if you wish. Each hour on the hour there is a different Christian worship leader who performs soft guitar music and sings Christian songs quietly to create a contemplative atmosphere. I’ve gone there a couple of times and I’ve never seen more than two or three people sitting in the pews. They don’t seem very prayerful either. They’re sitting there like they’re watching a musical performance. And it struck me that this place is a perfect metaphor for America. Something that looks big and impressive on the outside but inside it’s completely empty and devoid of meaning. There’s also a Christian coffee shop in the basement of the building. Nicely appointed with comfortable seats. The coffee is free in exchange for a donation. They have a lending library with 50 page pamphlets explaining why evolution is a lie and other such forms of enlightened thinking.

    “Yes, aluminum can break or penetrate steel, but only under specific high-energy, thermal, or chemical conditions. As a standard solid tool, soft aluminum cannot cut or machine harder steel because steel has much higher tensile strength and hardness.”

    In the plane crash there were these special high-energy conditions.

    Let’s stop this about aluminum. You are wrong, that’s all.

    Now it's diamonds. You really are a gas, j2, but I won't say what kind.


    LIN: Did it appear that the plane was having any difficulty flying?

    MURTAGH: Yes, it did. It was teetering back and forth, wingtip to wingtip, and it looks like it crashed into, probably, 20 stories from the top of the World Trade Center, maybe the 80th to 85th floor. There is smoke billowing out of the World Trade Center.

    LIN: Sean, what happened next? Does it appear to you that the plane is still inside the World Trade Center?

    MURTAGH: From my angle -- I'm viewing south towards the Statue of Liberty and the World Trade Center. It looks like it has embedded in the building. I can't see, from my vantage point whether it has come out the other side.

     

    Lin: "...still inside the WTC?"
    Murtagh: "can't see... whether it has come out the other side."

    Are these remarks a kind of Neuro-Linguist Programming to plant Hollywood images in the minds of the unwary?

    You claimed:


    Nobody asked them
     
    Why do you think Carol Lin or any of the news reporters would ask Murtagh or anyone else if they saw a fireball? Fireballs didn't emerge as an issue until the phony videos with spectacular fireballs were broadcast on TV. Certainly, anyone who saw a spectacular fireball as it was rendered in the WTC 2 crash videos would not have to be asked leading questions about it, would not fail to mention it, and would in fact be eager to volunteer the information.

    But nothing.

    Again, it is always the responsibility of the party making the claim to provide evidence to support that claim, but you haven't done that, and your hot air and walls of unformatted typing are not evidence, j2.

    In the plane crash there were these special high-energy conditions.
     

    Only because you say so. In fact, 500-600 mph is in the range of air gun BB velocities that are far below the 3,000 mph of kinetic anti-armor penetrators that are fabricated from some of the hardest materials known, so the alleged speed of UA175 fell far short of special high-energy conditions, and of course, the hollow aluminum tube structure of a jetliner is nothing at all like solid DU.

    In any event, your AI does go on to say what I've been telling you.


    As a standard solid tool, soft aluminum cannot cut or machine harder steel because steel has much higher tensile strength and hardness.
     
    So there you have it, and my challenge stands: Post an image, demonstration or video of aluminum cutting steel, or be still.

    Sounds like you discovered some interesting things, when you did your ancestry test.

    I have heard a certain Indian YouTuber claim many different famous figures had Indian connections from Ayatollah Khomeini to Charlie Chaplin to Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin.

    Khomenei's grandfather was born in Uttar Pradesh. (Though ethnically Persian, I believe.). Chaplin had a rumored Gypsy grandparent (probably mythically IMO - although, OTOH, he was quite popular over there.). Not sure about Robert Plant, whose mother was said to be a of a Gypsy line, however, my attitude is one of skepticism - he should take a DNA test. (And Chaplin's grandchildren.)

It soon became apparent that her family had moved to Ukraine long ago from India and were actually Romas.

    So it’s worth paying attention.

    Some readers are probably wondering: If the yen is tanking why not just raise interest rates and be done with it.

    But they can’t, because they have so much debt that the servicing costs alone would bankrupt the country. So they have to engage in all these Micky Mouse manipulations that create fake demand, like Bessents phony currency intervention which torpedoes the free market they are always praising to high heaven. Hypocrites!

    Face it– Japan is between a rock and a hard place.

    They can’t raise rates and they can’t selloff US Treasuries to shore up the yen or the US Treasuries market will suffer cardiac arrest dragging down the whole rotten dollar-based scaffolding that is already hanging by a thread.

    The basic problem is that everyone on Wall Street (all the hedge funds, Private equity and retirement funds) have been making gobs of dough thru interest differential –borrowing money for nothing in Japan and investing in 5% bonds in the US. The whole carry trade is an elitist money making scam that benefits no one except the pedophilia elites who run Wall Street. So when rates go up, all these money-grubbing child molesters will take it in the shorts and the whole filthy machine will grind to a halt.

    Then Israel will have to fight its own bloody wars.

But the media presents this information the other way around - they want you to believe the Fed is almighty and sets interest rates. This is false, if they did then t-bills would be flat lines on the chart. Currently, short T-Bill rates are climbing higher and higher above the Fed Funds rate. In the next several board meetings, if the trend continues, the Fed is going to be forced to follow, as this chart shows:

    The Fed always follows interest rates up, even chimps could set rates.

    This is a pretty important history:

    https://arctotherium.substack.com/p/the-closure-of-the-internet

    The closure of the Internet occurred in two distinct phases: 2015-2019 (associated with the 2015 migrant crisis, Brexit, Donald Trump’s election, and the so-called alt-right) and 2020-2022 (associated with the lockdowns and the 2020 election). Almost all of the technical and organizational infrastructure and conceptual justifications were built out in the first phase, which successfully decapitated and destroyed the previously-independent, but by definition fringe, online ecosystem of ideas. In the second phase, the same weapons that previously targeted heterodox online discourse were turned against opposition to the COVID measures du joure and mainstream conservatives. The scale of censorship has no precedent; tens of millions of accounts suppressed or banned, billions of posts removed.

    These purges are usually framed as a direct response to particular events or atrocities. For example Amazon ostensibly removed all Confederate flag merchandise from their web store in response to Dylan Roof’s 2015 massacre of black churchgoers. This is a mistake. Atrocities without a propaganda campaign from the press and political pressure from an opaque network of governments and quasi-government NGOs lead to no changes. There were no mass purges after Audrey Hale’s 2023 murder of elementary schoolers in Nashville motivated by anti-white hatred or the 2016 murder of five Dallas police officers by an ex-marine motivated by the BLM movement. On the other hand, press campaigns not centered around an atrocity, such as the mass deplatformings of YouTube personalities, lead to the same types of purges as the atrocity-based ones. It is not the atrocity that causes the changes, but the media and behind-the-scenes pressure campaign.

    The late 2010s also featured suppression of heterodoxy offline as well. This combined physical attacks on the streets, as happened to Charles Murray, and the firing of public figures with non-Internet platforms, as with Bo Winegard and Bryan Pesta. Even moderates and liberals in already left-wing institutions were not immune, as the purges of those who valued pluralism in objectivity within the New York Times, ACLU, and many progressive activist organizations showed. As such, the closure of the Internet shut down all avenues for heterodox discourse during the Great Awokening. If you spoke from an institutional platform, you would be fired. If you spoke in person, you would be beaten or shot. And if you spoke online, you would be censored, suppressed, demonetized, and doxxed.

    The closure of the Internet is the most important social phenomenon of the late 2010s. Most young people live online. More than half of American adults under 50 say they use the Internet “almost constantly”. Globally, almost 70% of people are online, and the average Internet user spends almost seven hours a day there. Cyberspace is where most couples meet, where most friend groups hang out, and where most people have fun. There is no alternative for even semi-serious intellectual or hobbyist discussion outside of a handful of low-capacity and carefully gatekept institutions. The word “censorship” does not go far enough; online went from almost completely open and free to a series of “closely monitored playpens,” like going from the American frontier to East Germany in just a few years.

    On Ffance and England having "good relations." LOL. How about the Hundred Year War, the Seven Year War, or the Second Hundred Year War culminating in France's defeat at Waterloo. The fact that Britain and France had good relations for a brief period was nothing but a product of the particular contingencies of its time, e.g. Germany's rise, the resolution of the colonial rivalry. Bismarck's delicate balance of power was always on the verge of becoming unbalanced.

    You're closer to the truth but the "stridently nationalistic" element is unnecessary. Nationalism was nothing but the ideology which animated the masses at the time. In 1618 it was religion; after nationalism, it became political ideology. It's really just about great power politics and the scale of the conflict is a product of the size of the political entity (centralization, consolidation), weapons technology, media technology, logistical technology.

    The Strait of Hormuz is shared with Oman.
     
    You gullible zionist Jew must know that the management and control over the strait of Hormuz is 100% with Iran where Oman has ZERO control over the strait. Oman only has share when fee is collected. For your information, I must add that Hurmoz is the Iranian territorial water located NEXT to the Iranian STATE with the same NAME, Hormuz, which is an OLD Persian name. The name is HORMUZ for thousands of years, idiot.

    You the imperialists and the zionist thieves go around the world stealing lands and put your name on it to own it, but you have problem to recognize Hormuz, which is an extension of the Iranian territory, Hormuz-gan?
    You have no problem with evil UK who claims control over Gibraltar, Spanish territorial water, 1330 miles away from Britain, but cannot recognize the Iranian territorial water, Hormuz, an old Persian name of 7000 years which is NEXT to the Iranian state of the same name Hormuzgan with NO distance between them, meaning it encompasses the strait. This is the description:


    Hormuzgan does not just sit next to the Strait of Hormuz—it actually encompasses it. The northern coastline of the strait is part of Hormozgan Province, meaning the distance from the province to the strait is 0 km (0 miles) as they directly overlap and share a border.

    I’m not a Jew and you seem to misunderstand international rules on the Strait of Hormuz:

    Under international law, the Strait is considered part of the high seas, and all ships have the right and freedom to pass through it as long as their passage does not harm the safety of the coastal states or affect their order or security.

    Maybe read the law before trying to lecture me on it.

    Better yet fact check Larry Johnson on anything he says related to international law since he actually has no regard for it as seen by his complete avoidance of UN rulings on Russia’s invasion. He will however cite UN law when it suits him and his favored nations.

  • @A Competent Physicist
    Everything Ron Unz says makes 100% sense right up until the very last quote box at the end. Maybe it makes 95% sense or maybe 15% sense or any value in between. That is largely up to your personal judgement, something I don't like to rely on vastly preferring hard facts. I have not made up my mind on this matter but there is a missing component to these types of stories which is routinely overlooked, the origins of "Jewish" power.

    These important examples may help to explain the puzzling contrast between the behavior of Jews in the aggregate and Jews as individuals. Observers have noticed that even fairly small Jewish minorities may often have a major impact upon the far larger societies that host them. But on the other hand, in my experience at least, a large majority of individual Jews do not seem all that different in their personalities or behavior than their non-Jewish counterparts. So how does a community whose individual mean is not so unusual generate what seems to be such a striking difference in collective behavior? I think the answer may involve the existence of information choke-points, and the role of relatively small numbers of particularly zealous and agitated Jews in influencing and controlling these…

    Furthermore, this situation is exacerbated by the common tendency of Jews to “cluster” together, perhaps representing just one or two percent of the total population, but often constituting 20% or 40% or 60% of their immediate peer-group, especially in certain professions. Under such conditions, the ideas or emotional agitation of some Jews probably permeates others around them, often provoking additional waves of indignation.

    As a rough analogy, a small quantity of uranium is relatively inert and harmless, and entirely so if distributed within low-density ore. But if a significant quantity of weapons-grade uranium is sufficiently compressed, then the neutrons released by fissioning atoms will quickly cause additional atoms to undergo fission, with the ultimate result of that critical chain-reaction being a nuclear explosion. In similar fashion, even a highly agitated Jew may have no negative impact, but if the collection of such agitated Jews becomes too numerous and clusters together too closely, they may work each other into a terrible frenzy, perhaps with disastrous consequences both for themselves and for their larger society. This is especially true if those agitated Jews begin to dominate certain key nodes of top-level control, such as the central political or media organs of a society.
     

    I will call this POV the Gremlins theory of Jewish power. As individuals they're fine, just like everyone else. Relatively normal people but bring us together under the wrong circumstances and a chain reaction can occur not unlike the unfortunate chaos which erupts after feeding Gremlins after midnight. I find this view wanting and unsatisfying for various reasons but will not spend any time debunking it. My goal here is to simply present another framework with which to understand the situation. I will not delve deeper into this alternative framework, nor argue for it. It is enough to simply state it and to leave defending it for another day. It does not void or deny the toxic behavior of certain members of this ethnic minority nor gloss over key events. Without further delay, here is what I believe is a more coherent picture than the Gremlin theory.

    The ruling establishments always enlist the help of proxies to do their dirty work. This is no secret and you can see it plainly throughout history and in the dozens of Color Revolutions our power centers have surreptitiously organized over this past century. European oligarchs, feudal lords and even the Catholic Church have frequently employed other parties to exploit their own people when they themselves could not do so for practical reasons. When Jewish tax collectors and merchants grew too aggressive in their practices and there was political blowback, there were expulsions. This cycle was repeated so many times, lather, rinse, repeat... Powerful people needed the services of Jews to tax, seize property, etc. from their own people without causing a revolt. The powers would vigorously protect their agents as long as it suited them and when the arrangement would no longer work, their proxies would be driven out for a season and rehired at some later time. The natural antagonism they held towards gentiles qualified them for this work better than any other group. The sense of loathing and othering of the European masses made them a perfect fit for work that involved ruining lives, stealing, seizing, etc. they were after all, goys less than human and little better than animals. The constant victimization narratives repeated among Jews is only natural considering the line of work they were in for over two millenia. They get kicked out, they are hated by the masses of people and antisemitism is a constant reality reinforcing their work and social cohesion. It's a sad story for all involved.

    When you're trying to run a global empire as the West in doing, you cannot often engage in direct confrontation. It repulses your populations and erodes support. People don't like war but the powers that be employ all means necessary to achieve their goals. LIES are an indispensable tool, cultivating fear and loathing inside your population primes the pump to cry havoc and let loose the dogs of war. It is simply impossible for a global empire to be truthful with its own citizens while attaining its goals. We are constantly lied to and this is why. It's practical and many believe even that it is necessary, that there is no other way. Proxy wars give empire the cover they need to get the job done. It's an unfortunate geopolitical reality. This is why we have false flags and other stratagems. Every dirty deed is strategically planned to the smallest detail even the cover up story.

    At this point, it becomes clear how a few Jewish revolutionaries e.g. the Bolsheviks could have such a disproportionate influence. Obviously, if Americans or British were involved in murdering the Romanov families it would be a very bad look for history. The solution was to pick someone else to do the dirty work and project power from behind the scenes. The Anglo empire needed to control the middle east so the modern state of Israel was created through the Balfour declaration. It was as simple as releasing a pressure valve. Antisemitism had built up to the point where many Jews were eager to leave Europe and many were happy to see them go. They weren't the nicest folks on the planet and had treated the Palestinians rather poorly upon entering. Their radical beliefs devaluing every ethnic group but their own had made them the perfect tax collectors and financiers for powerful European elites working them like puppets. They were deployed to the middle east to establish a permanent presence for global powers. Israel is America's pitbull. Besides Israel, other countries were created where there were none for the purpose of establishing control of Gulf OIL. Jordan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, etc. these were all colonial creations, strategic investments for their controllers.

    The most negative aspects of Jewish character are the byproduct of centuries of expulsions. Human nature being what it is always develops a one sided story to explain everything and that feels good. People need to live inside of lie because the truth is simply too frightening. Anyone who honestly believes Jews control the world is mistaken. When the War on Terror began, the Bush administration was a little too present on the world stage and this was a strategic mistake. You'll notice that as the war dragged on and on, our Proxies have been playing a greater role in the conflict. Most Americans developed a hated of the Bush family after being lied to about weapons of Mass Destruction. Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld were similarly loathed along with other political personalities at the time. If this situation had continued, the War on Terror might very well have been forced to stop through sheer public outrage. The solution was for Israel to play and greater role in the conflict, so the Bush regime could fade away while their proxies took over. You'll notice how things were a little quiet during the Obama years, but nothing had really changed. Israelis can't fight. The world has never seem a more pathetic and incompetent army. In a short time they went from the World's Most Moral Army to being despised around the globe, something that probably surprised many people at the top.

    Whatever your opinions and beliefs, you can keep them but it's more profitable to examine them through different lenses. One lens is the Gremlin theory and the other I'll call the Proxy theory for lack of a better name. There are many nuances to this, I may have a detail here or there wrong, there may be a more sophisticated viewpoint which synthesizes parts of both. This is simply a POV that I have found serviceable to understanding the present unfortunate situation. Most people don't seem to care until their lives unravel, then in a state of shock or fear, they look for scapegoats and fail to see the larger picture. It's clear we are approaching such a time again, eventually. With any luck cooler heads will prevail. I have not written this with any intent other than to present another framework for understand and to stimulate you thoughts on the issue. We need to examine the whole truth and understand where antisemitism actually came from despite the fact that it has become a political cudgel today. We are all shaped by the past and influenced by the experiences of our predecessors. Try to understand things sympathetically for everyone.

    Whatever your opinions and beliefs, you can keep them but it’s more profitable to examine them through different lenses. One lens is the Gremlin theory and the other I’ll call the Proxy theory for lack of a better name.

    Sure, there’s certainly an important element of historical truth in this “Proxy theory.” In fact, I’d given it some attention in my first major article on these Jewish issues, published back in 2018:

    Furthermore, Jewish hostility toward non-Jews may often have served the interests of others, and helped determine the economic role that the group filled, especially in European countries, with this factor having been obscured by widespread ignorance of the underlying religious tenets. As most of us know from our history books, political rulers who harshly exploit their subjects sometimes restrict military power to a relatively small group of well-rewarded mercenaries, often of foreign origins so that they will have little sympathy for the population they harshly repress. I strongly suspect that some of the most common traditional economic niches of European Jews, such as tax-farming and the arrenda estate-management system of Eastern Europe, should be best understood in a similar light, with Jews being more likely to extract every last penny of value from the peasants they controlled for the benefit of their local king or lords, and their notorious antipathy for all non-Jews ensuring that such behavior was minimally tempered by any human sympathy. Thus, we should not be surprised that Jews first entered England in the train of William the Conqueror, in order to help him and his victorious Norman lords effectively exploit the subjugated Anglo-Saxon population they now ruled.

    But states in which the vast majority of the population is oppressed and dominated by a thin slice of rulers and their mercenary enforcers tend to be much weaker and more brittle than those in which rulers and ruled share common interests, and I believe this is just as true for economic enforcers as for military ones. In many cases, lands reliant upon Jewish economic intermediaries, notably Poland, never successfully developed a native middle class, and often later fared quite poorly against their nationally-unified competitors.

    https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-oddities-of-the-jewish-religion/#the-historical-role-of-jews-in-western-societies

    However, the two theories are not really in any deep conflict, and possible instances of Proxy theory should be considered on a case-by-case historical basis. It’s obviously correct in the examples of the Polish arrenda system, the Jewish exploitation of the English under the British monarchs, and numerous other examples. Even in the case of Russia, Jewish alcohol sales to the peasants was an important source of government revenue.

    But I don’t think it applies at all in the case of the Jewish colonization of Palestine or the Jewish Bolsheviks. After all, the British had rather mixed feelings about the former during the 1920s and 1930s, and massive Zionist terrorism finally drove them out after WWII. Meanwhile, the Bolshevik Revolution was a total strategic disaster for the Allies in WWI and the British were absolutely opposed to it.

    Also, if we consider the model of Jews often playing the role of “foreign economic mercenaries” that elites often brought in to help exploit their own people, we should consider there’s a long history of similar military mercenaries then eventually seizing power for themselves.

    Israel Shahak had claimed Ashkenazi Jewdom of yore were shaped by their massively insular-community-influential Rabbis, and a Rabbi-controlled breeding selection process thereby took place, to up-regulate the traits better suited for the proxy role you and commenter 'A Competent Physicist' outline.

    Perhaps the resulting cohort (the Ashkenazi) therefore now tends towards 'proxy-acting'. As such, perhaps a 'proxy-using' cohort moves to fill a 'proxy-using' niche vacated by the emergent western liberal mindset. Perhaps said 'proxy-using' niche-fillers are Zionist billionairists (like I have been claiming for years and years now). If so, the Zionist billionairist 'proxy-using niche-fillers' motives are of ultimate importance with respect to untangling current world geopolitics, as I have also claimed for years and years now. Just what power grab would they be trying to consolidate?

    Generally what happens is when Americans evaluate a different culture they use a filter system that had been created for them in the late nineteenth/early twentieth century (and I am beginning to suspect perhaps much earlier) which is designed to channel evaluations along the course of everything American is superior and the proper way of doing things and so if an American sees something in a different culture that negates that viewpoint he or she automatically thinks that something must be a conscious fake or it is just a very minor exception to the general "foreign bad" rule. This affects almost every American due to their growing up in that cultural context although some do experience cognitive dissonance.

    Just look at political debates, read old editorial opinions, watch archived documentaries made in the US from say 1950 (or even 1900) onwards to now; they are all quite limited in options and straddle a very restricted political spectrum. That's not just peculiar cultural quirk-it is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    Or even better-reread the opinions of some of the long-time trolls lurking here on the Unz forum. Sure some of them are organized hasbara but alongside these are some individuals that probably see themselves as independent thinkers yet once they write their comment they basically unconsciously regurgitate the channeled opinions of elite decision-makers. More than once if someone points out a contradiction they defend themselves that the contradiction is fake propaganda created by America's nefarious enemies. They might not realize it but their opinions were basically created for them and channeled along a specific course.

    "Even with all their planning, they still screwed up with Building Seven, which obviously was intended to fall under the cover of all the dust and confusion. And the Pentagon and Flight 93 didn’t go as planned either. "

    Your principle is good, but they did not follow it strictly. They did not realize that the passengers can indeed overcome the fake "terrorists" as happened in Flight 93.

    Flight 93 was not supposed to fall to the ground somewhere and make a crater. It was supposed to hit something. I think it was supposed to dive to the roof of WTC7 from above. As WTC7 fell as it fell, the collapse would have looked like caused by a plane only if the plane dived steeply to the roof. And that is the only direction if could have used as WTC7 was a relatively low building, but for some reason it had to be demolished. And as Flight 93 already was steered by a control algorithm that was going to make a steep dive, they used the algorithm to make the steep dive to ground, this is why there is the crater. But what else they could have done? Allow Flight 93 to land so that FBI would investigate everything there and notice that terrorists were actors and the plane was in remote control. The plane had to be completely destroyed, so the crater. Passengers did make the phone calls. It was possible, later it was claimed that it was not possible, but I worked on that field and I find it possible.

    Pentagon strike, I think. succeeded. There was the problem with huge money that had disappeared somewhere. That problem was solved by the crash.

    So, I think you would have planned this operation better. But they made a mistake. However well-planned an operation is, there often is some mistake. Can't help, but a coverup and spreading confusion usually fixes it.

    A LOT less then that!! LOL!!

    China recorded 22.91 million inbound foreign visits in the first half of 2026, marking a 20.4% increase from the previous year. This follows a broader rebound where total inbound visits surpassed 150 million in 2025 (which included travelers from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan alongside 35.17 million strict foreign tourists).

    The above AI blurb does not strip out former Chinklanders going back to Chinkland to visit family, business visits or pre-planned and therefore pre-approved group trips. The number of free range tourists visiting Chinkland is probably only around 10,000 a year. A number well within Chinkland's ability to assign minders for political correctness. LOL!!!

    The average Chinklander is dirt poor and lives on well under $200 a month. The poverty line per the CCP is only 4,000 yuan a year. That is around 333 yuan a month or around $48 dollars. With such a low income there can only be widespread poverty and ... widespread homelessness. LOL!!!

    Alright, let's see now. The best estimates we've got of mass and potential energy come from Gregory Urich's paper. According to Urich, the mass of each tower came in at about 300,000 tons and the potential energy, at about 500 GJ. This potential energy is roughly equivalent to 120 tons of TNT.

    https://www.journalof911studies.com/volume/200703/GUrich/MassAndPeWtc.pdf#page=23

    Equipped with these estimates, you can now redo your calculations using better figures. As you can readily see, 300 tons of TNT would represent the equivalent of about two-and-a-half towers' worth of potential energy. Only a fraction of that would however shake the bedrock. The proportion is hard to tell but I'd put it at one-tenth or so, perhaps a little higher.

    You are still stuck in your reading of the seismic charts through certain glasses. I would again advise you to reconsider and to take off those glasses. The statement that "there is this 5-6 seconds long signal" is highly dubious. The duration of the signal depends, of course, on where you draw the line between signal and noise. Even with a very high barrier, you'll end up with a longer signal than 5-6 seconds, and with a reasonably set bar, the signal is more like 20 seconds up at the PAL station.

    The absence of a starting peak at the reading station doesn't imply there is no starting peak at the origin. I've already made this point but it bears repeating, certainly as it apparently didn't register. Semi-open pit detonations are an entirely different beast than earthquakes or deep underground explosions such as nuclear tests. You cannot just take the earthquake schematic off the shelf and apply it to these events we're talking about. That would amount to misapplication. If you look at the Kim et al paper, they served this up on the last page. The North Tower collapse chart sure doesn't look anything like the earthquake chart below. But this is misleading, a comparison of apples to pears. Or even oranges, for our stateside readers.

    If you take a look at the previous page in the same paper, you'll see how the two stations located right on the Hudson River – Pallisades (PAL) and Mount Airy (MANY) – display certain common peculiarities. These are more obvious at MANY than at PAL, but when you look at the PAL chart in this context, you'll realise the signal is not only increasingly distributed but also bifurcates. By the time it gets to MANY, we've got two "humps" of activity. This shows how seismic waves travel in a somewhat different manner along rivers than across ordinary dry land. The other stations do not display these peculiarities, but have single-hump charts.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20240503035027/https://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/LCSN/Eq/20010911_WTC/WTC_LDEO_KIM.pdf#page=8

    Clearly the waves travel at slightly different speeds on either side of the Hudson, and the general transmission speeds are much lower (about 2 km/s) than what is ordinarily thought to apply to S-waves let alone P-waves. What this suggests to me is we're dealing primarily with surface waves (L and R) here, not with deeper earthquake-type waves. So those glasses simply need to come off in order to properly see what's going on in these charts.

    If you look at the one "simple" event we've got in the five WTC charts, namely the South Tower impact chart, you'll see that this, too, is symmetrically distributed. We know this is a plane hitting the tower, which is a well-defined "shock". Even so, by the time it reaches PAL, there is no apparent shock frontier on it, but only a symmetrically distributed hump lasting about 3-4 seconds.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc2impact.jpg

    This chart tells us something about the conditions for propagation from origin to station, and it also tells us that the vertical steel in the buildings worked like a "steel radio" or "tuning fork" transmitting shocks from way up in the buildings down to bedrock and then on to PAL. This, too, is a very important finding as it shows that as long as the "steel radio" is connected to bedrock, the ruckus caused by collapsing buildings will be transmitted down into bedrock and then onto PAL.

    When you apply this to the Twin Towers collapses – and to Building 7, too, for that matter – you'll find there is no such thing as a "5-6 second signal" for the towers. There's a signal of about that duration, or slightly longer, for Building 7 coming down. For the towers, the duration is much longer than that. Video footage shows that the collapses took up towards 20 seconds for the South Tower, and 23-24 seconds for the North Tower. For the most part, the "steel radio" was turned on during the collapses, which means the signals should register at PAL. As the surely did, if you set the signal-to-noise ratio at the appropriate level.

    I'll make one more point here and now. In the Kim & Baum paper, you'll find a "local explosion" in the big multistation chart on page 9. This is a quarry detonation, so is of particular interest for WTC comparison even though it is small potatoes by comparison. The detonation happens somewhere east of Yale (YLE) and also shows up in the Lakeside (LSCT) chart. So it's all local to Connecticut, yet says a lot about the transmission conditions in that general direction, which becomes relevant to the PAL and MANY stations as well.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20030320090510/http://www.mgs.md.gov/esic/publications/download/911pentagon.pdf#page=9

    What's peculiar here is the very low transmission speed, for one, and which amounts to a measly 1 km/s if even that. That's how slowly surface action propagates in this area. The other peculiarity is the bifurcation that shows at LSCT but not at YLE. The explosion apparently generates signals at different frequencies, which travel at slightly different speeds. When they're teased apart, one can readily see the more explosion-like concentrated hump to the left, and the other, more distributed low-frequency hump to the right.

    This quarry blast might seem like an irrelevant footnote, but I think not. It helps us understand not only the nature of the WTC blasts and how they can be expected to manifest themselves in seismic charts, but also the clearly reduced transmission speeds seen in the PAL-MANY direction compared to other inland directions. I think that adds an important layer to our understanding of the seismic activity that took place at the World Trade Center on 9/11. Mind you, this is a jigsaw puzzle where we try to fit the pieces together to the best of our ability, and that's precisely why I wanted to hear your take on these issues. As it stands right now, I find it hard to agree with your interpretation, but then we've only just got started. It's an iterative process, and I feel I can benefit from your observations even when I do not agree with them.

    I'll stop here for now. There is absolutely no rush with this, so don't feel pressed. Besides, Mr Marshall's advertised Part 3 isn't out yet, so there will be plenty of time to continue discussion in that comment section as well, when the time comes.

    “According to Urich, the mass of each tower came in at about 300,000 tons and the potential energy, at about 500 GJ. This potential energy is roughly equivalent to 120 tons of TNT. ”

    I find mostly 450,000,000 kg as the weight of the building, including what was inside it. If we calculate more precisely that the center of the weight is not at the middle of the building because the steel structures on lower floor are stronger and heavier, we probably can set the center of weight to 170 m. Then the potential energy is 7.5*10^11 J, which is 180 kg of TNT. Could it be that Urich counts only the building itself, not the mass of everything that was in the building.

    The first link gave seismographic signals in Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University, 34 km from WTC buildings. That is a rather small distance, so the signals should not have distorted very much.

    In the impact of the plane to WTC1, we see very much an impulse response, that is, the output from a system that is given an impulse (infinitely short pulse). It looks like that because the system has limited bandwidth and cannot react infinitely fast. You see rather fast growing signal and then oscillations. You see similar impulse responses in EM-waves in all communication systems, and in voice recording and everywhere. The important thing to notice is that after the rise time (which reflects the bandwidth of the system), the signal decreases from the maximum. This is also what one should expect from a nuclear explosion in the beginning of the collapse of WTC1 because this signal goes along the same routes to the seismic lab.

    Look at the signal from the collapse of WTC1. The figure does not show an impulse response looking similar to the plane impact. If there is an impulse response from an explosion (a very fast pulse), it is superimposed on other data. The other data has a peak later than the peak in the plane impact plot.

    Does the signal from WTC1 collapse show signals from falling of material from the building? I think it does because there is material falling in the WTC7 plot. So, the second stronger peak in the seismic signal of the WTC1 collapse may be material falling from the building.

    As you point out, most of the energy of an explosion does not go to the seismic signal.

    But judging from the signal from the collapse of WTC1, I think if might very well be so that the seismic signal is completely produced by falling matter. If so, the explosion did not give any measurable signal, it was too weak.

    If this is one possible explanation (and I think it is possible), then nothing can be learned about the explosion by looking at this seismic data.

    As said, I have no competence in analyzing seismic signals and cannot be of any help.

    @j2

    Thanks much for these additional thoughts. Adding 50% to Urich's estimates amounts in my opinion to high-balling the numbers, but each one to his own. You'll then raise Urich's 500 GJ to 750 GJ, which is the equivalent of 180 tons of TNT. You wrote kilograms not tons, I'm assuming that's a typo.

    Reading these seismic charts is very much an exercise in statistical inference. There is a "data-generating process" (DGP) underneath, which gives rise to the data as displayed in the charts. The art of reading these charts is to make the best possible inferences about the nature of scope of the underlying DGP. I think that can be done without extensive training in seismology, so the "expertise" in question does not strike me as entirely necessary.

    I take as the point of departure the one chart that connects to a sharply defined and known shock, namely the impact shock for the South Tower. This chart consists of three parts: first noise, then a well-defined activity signal, and then noise again. A reasonable level for the signal-to-noise bar will be 5 units of amplitude according to the right-hand scale on the chart. Anything above 5 will be "signal"; anything below it (except the odd chance spike) will be "noise".

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc2impact.jpg

    The signal begins at 17-18 seconds, and ends 21-22 seconds on the time scale. The activity lasts about 4 seconds with an average amplitude of about 15 units (let's call them au, for "amplitude units"). The total amount of activity in the event is thus about 15au x 4s = 60 aus. That's a proxy for the amount of activity as recorded at the station. The amount of activity at the origin will depend on a host of other things including the conditions and paths of transmission, the frequency distribution of the activity at origin, etc.

    In this case, it is possible to at least roughly estimate the amount of activity as we know the approximate speed and mass of the aircraft that went in. So for this particular transmission it is possible to relate the approximate energy of the generative event to the activity seen in the chart. It's not a terribly meaningful exercise though, as the events we're interested in don't compare directly in any case.

    What's important to note is that the above-noise activity hump is symmetric; it is neither skewed to the left nor to the right. This alone pretty much disproves the preconceived notion that a sharp shock like a plane impact or a detonation would show up as a heavily right-skewed hump in the seismic chart. There is absolutely no indication of that, and I'll reiterate that this chart is based on known events not mere inferences about what we think is likely to have happened.

    Looking at the Building 7 chart, which reflects a complex event consisting of an initial detonation shock as the steel is cut, followed by a brief lull and then another bout of activity as the building crushes itself to the ground. In this case, we're dealing with a nearly-known event as the probability of controlled demolition is very high. That said, it is not a known event as with the South Tower plane impact.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc7level.jpg

    Applying the same signal-to-noise bar of 5 au, we find that the first hump of activity, which we interpret as the detonation shock, lasts for about 4 seconds and averages about 20 units in amplitude. The amount of activity in this part thus amounts to 80 aus. Then follows a lull at noise level for about 3 seconds, after which the second bout of activity begins. This hump lasts for about 8 seconds averaging perhaps 15 units in amplitude. The total activity in this part amounts to about 120 aus. If we add the two together, we'll have a total of 200 aus of activity for Building 7.

    Note that the detonation shock registers a little more strongly than the South Tower plane impact. This undoubtedly reflects the tight coupling between the explosives and the steel, as the amount of energy released in the detonations is nowhere near that of a crashing airliner.

    Now, what about the Twin Towers? We are dealing here with activity on a different scale altogether. Indeed the right-hand scale in the chart counts hundreds not tens of au. There is also greater duration in the bouts of activity.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc2level.jpg

    In order to shave off all activity except the large humps in the middle, one will need to set the signal-to-noise bar very high. In the previous two examples, I've used 5 au as a pretty obvious level for the bar, but here we would need to increase that tenfold to about 50 au. However, even if we set the bar that high, we still can't compress the "signal" activity to the 5-6 seconds you've been claiming, but will still end up with about 8 seconds of stronger-than-noise activity. That goes for both towers even if the charts look a little different with a much-higher spike in the North Tower chart.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc1level.jpg

    Applying the average amplitude x duration formula, we find that the big humps are worth about the same in both cases. The average amplitude might come in around 300 au, implying 2,400 aus of activity within the 8 seconds of "signal". I think the "high bar" is a reasonable way of identifying the big shocks for the Twin Towers, but quite obviously one will need to apply the same bar consistently when comparing the five charts to one another.

    Lowering the bar to 5 units will yield about 10-12 seconds of lead signals, followed by the big hump, which is then followed by higher-than-normal activity for the remainder of the time segment displayed in the charts. Aerial video footage of the towers going down provides some guidance about where to cut off the directly collapse-related activity, leaving the rest as "residual" or "secondary" activity. For the South Tower, I'd put the cut-off point around 35s on the time scale; for the North Tower, I would probably let it run all the way out to 40s, but not much further than that.

    In effect, we've got two main bouts of activity: the big humps and then the ensuing lower-level activity. It is reasonable to think that these two overlap as there is no lull between them. This raises the question how far to the left the lower-level activity might stretch. The answer, I think, depends on how one thinks the towers came down. In my view, the lower-level activity goes all the way to the left, starting about the same time as the onset of the big humps.

    Scaling up the collapse-related activity for Building 7 to Twin Towers size, we would expect about 6-8x more activity. In numbers that would amount to around 800 aus, give or take a hundred. The right tails on the Twin Towers charts aren't heavy enough to account for this, and that's where my notion of constant overlap comes from. Total activity in the towers charts might amount to very roughly 3,000 aus, of which 800 comes from the collapse activity. The vast bulk of activity would thus come from detonations, accounting for at least two-thirds of the activity that registered in these charts. Considering that the potential energy of each tower corresponds to at least 120 tons of TNT, this indicates a very considerable contribution to the seismic activity from underground detonations.

    This, I think, summarises how I have come to view these seismic charts and their relationship to the seismic activity that gave rise to them. It's an exercise in reasonable inference, not foolproof but in my opinion still pretty robust. In my view, it would be well-nigh impossible to get around the very large contribution coming from detonation shocks underneath the towers. One can stretch or lowball the numbers; one can experiment with various alternative schemes to bring down the towers; but no matter how far one takes these manipulations, they will still not be able to account for the massive hidden energy sources that lurk behind the big humps in the Twin Towers charts.

    The Cambridge professor Jason Arday’s unlikely ascent has come to a tragic end.
    By Daniel Engber
    August 6, 2026

    Great and Unfortunate Things, which Arday co-wrote with Eve Claxton, is still scheduled to come out next week from Simon & Schuster. The story that it tells should not be taken at face value; it differs notably from other versions of his life that Arday has shared in public and in private, including in the original proposal he sent out with his agent.

    [MORE]

    But the most disturbing inconsistencies arise from Arday’s book proposal, a copy of which was obtained by The Atlantic. That document, from 2024, cites several accolades of which no proof exists online. The proposal also lays out many of the same events as the memoir but with slightly different dates and details: The boys who beat him up were not his age but four years older; his suicide attempt happened before, not during, the pandemic. And whereas the book describes Arday as having survived two brain tumors, the proposal says he had a bout of testicular cancer. No reference to that illness appears in the memoir.

    Nor does the book describe the time that Arday, then a teenager, was struck by a car and spent several months in a coma. According to the book proposal, the doctors told his parents that he would never recover, and suggested taking him off life support “as an act of mercy.” Through all of this, he was aware of everything that was going on, because he had locked-in syndrome. “As I will describe to readers in the book,” Arday wrote in the proposal, “these months afforded me another profoundly different way of perceiving the world.”

    The book doesn’t describe any of this, nor that he awakened “miraculously” from the coma, nor the full year he spent “relearning everything—how to walk, to talk.” Instead, the memoir tells us only that he spent those months finishing his final year of secondary school and taking his exams. “I was relieved, beyond relieved,” the memoir says, when those were done.

    Then there is the prophecy—the revelation Arday was given in Brazil, that he would suffer greatly and also do great things. According to the proposal, this occurred in 2005, not 2006, and the message came not from a local aid worker in her 30s but from “an elder in the small town where I had been assigned, who was well-known in the area for predicting people’s futures.” (Later in the proposal, he calls this person a “shaman woman.”) “Do you know the story of Spartacus, the escaped slave who led a rebellion against the Romans?” this town elder asks, before telling him his fate in minute detail. “Every event she described,” Arday writes in the proposal, “has since come to pass.”

    Personally, I find the claims dubious. But, even if they were true, they still seem irrational and immoral. The people who died I think would generally be eliminated from the genepool, without descendents and so it feels very callous to exploit them for status gains.
     
    The evidential basis for them doesn't seem solid enough given their sensational nature.

    AA did a video about the 45 trillion claim years ago and I remember he couldn't understand how they had reached it. I read one of the leading Indian economic historians saying it was basically made up, he did go into what it is supposed to be based on in a bit of depth (things like repayment of loans taken out in London by the Indian government, or payments of salaries and pensions to European officials working for it), where the huge drain sums claimed seem really improbable.

    There's something similar for the massive famine deaths claims (they seem to go back to a journal article by Jason Hickel claiming that the Raj was responsible for 50-150 million excess deaths in the period 1880-1920, so 40 years). As you said, it sort of implies that the equivalent of the whole Indian population of the 1750s died off in this 40 year period. The main criticisms are about the absence of solid evidence behind the claims, and the need to rely on creative interpretation to make up for it.

    Jason Hickel, who publicised them both on Al-Jazeera describes himself as anti-capitalist/far-left, I know and the other guy who often  gets cited on the topic, Mike Davis is also an American far-left academic and union organiser. I thought they were motivated by trying to counter those claims that Communism caused 100 million deaths that started circulating after the Black Book of Communism was published in France. Iirc Hickel even wrote something like this in one of the articles.


    I have started to wonder if the British ever touted to Indians that they were helping the country be integrated, by building the infrastructure, etc.
     
    Iirc there were a lot more debates like this in the last decades of the Raj, when more of the new things brought by Britain/Europe were still recognised and not taken for granted (would include ideas like the democratic nation state itself).

    I suspect the change in the debate within Britain and other Anglosphere countries is related to the scale of demographic change and maybe feminism, where it became harder to recognise any of the things achieved in the past by white men.


    It is impossible not to think of it as a glue narrative. The worse they say the British were, the more useful or essential the British appear. The curses seem to turn into praise, due to their vehemence.
     
    I think this must part of the purpose of them, but it does have the issue you point out:

    Villainizing the British seems to have a couple of problems. One is the obvious decline which is on display, for example in the British navy. It doesn’t seem to build India up, to imply that they were once ruled by such a poor, dysfunctional country.
     
    Given there were never many British in India compared to the size of the population, with a weak military garrison of white troops (~40,000 in 1857 just before the Mutiny, about 60,000 in the 1900s when the native population was >300 million), it makes you wonder about how they managed to impose and maintain the Raj, and it points to a level of collaboration with the British. Similar to the way it is likely that the famines hit lower class/caste people more, but the issue is probably being exploited by people not from those groups.

    Seems possible that there are people whose families supported the Raj and derived benefits from it, whose ancestors didn't die in famines, who then migrated to Britain and became born-again democrats and Indian/Pakistani nationalists, propagating these mass death narratives against the British.


    Another, is the possibility that British and English might eventually die as a plausible ethnic labels, with the survivors taking on some new identity, though developing strong resentments and Indians getting a lot of the blame for having destroyed them.
     
    This seems a possibility now that shifts in the demographic balance have started. Possibly it will cause the native British to get more interested in South Asian history and start looking into some of the more questionable claims and what they were used to promote. It's also one way I imagined that a pro-colonial film could be made again at some point in the future, if people start exploring it or reacting against it.

    But if there comes a time when there are no more Germans, I don’t think it will be useful, at that point, but a liability. Yet, it isn’t a narrative that can be switched easily or forgotten, due to the great mass of past productions.
     
    Yes it becomes more sinister if it looks like it is being implicated in the displacement of drastic reduction in numbers of an ethnic group, like it may be fostering a culture of self-elimination.

    The current India related claims seem to take the Holocaust/Nazi ones as their template and often reference it (even Jamil did this), there is also this idea, 'Foucault's Boomerang', that makes Africans, South Asians, Arabs etc. the main victims of an expanded idea of Nazism, something Africans like Césaire started claiming after WW2:

    It is definitely a crazy figure.

    Most trade is internal. Not exports. The British vastly increased this internal trade, both by building infrastructure, and by cracking down on gangs of robbers like the Thugs, and by bringing peace to areas at war.

    There are limits to local wealth. Most of it is harvest. In a good year, if you can’t export the surplus, most of it will rot.

    Amusingly, this guy is going directly to the source, and claiming Gypsy deaths in WW2, and “BTW have you heard about the Bengal Famine, during WW2” seems to be the logical addendum.

    I guess a lot of the Thuggees had tattoos on their eyelids or elsewhere. I wonder if the British rounded them up like Bukele.

    Having not been very familiar with the mutiny, I was pretty shocked by the brutality of the massacres. Something like Bibi Ghar almost seems worse than anything Red Indians would do. (Who would at least take some of the children)

    It seems like all these mutiny figures are beloved in India. The Rani of Jhansi. (One could debate whether she was involved in the local massacre.). Mangal Pandey, who was high on bhang. There are movies and I think songs about both. I think they even love the guy responsible for Bibi Ghar.

    let's face facts, our house of cards economy, is a ponzi scheme at best. the mighty oz behind the curtain, is really just a little old man and all the smoke and mirrors, are just to dazzle the proles and keep their nose to the grindstone.

    i have been saying from the beginning, that trump has been brought in to destroy the economy. every single policy he has enacted has hurt the working class and enriched the epstein zionist billionaire class, everyone he has put into a position of power has immediately begun looting the government and enriching themselves.

    this is all part of the purposeful destruction of the real economy, especially small businesses, which had once employed more than half of the workforce, before their covid 19 bioweapon attack*, and have been decimated x4 in the last 10 years. that's more than 20% of jobs destroyed along with the lifes works and fortunes, spent building these businesses. add to this the intentional of destruction of as many remaining jobs, through government subsidized a.i. gimmickry and you can begin to see why they are driving the economy off a cliff.

    by creating the next great depression, they will mask the implosion and meltdown of their phony bullshit ponzinomic charade of an economy. they will then loot the whole country and as much of the world as they can get their tentacles wrapped around. this is why they have co-opted cryptocurrency, if it wasn't always just another tulip based economy to begin with. this will allow them to use their invisible emperor's new coin, based on nothing but their mumbo jumbo, to buy up hard assets all over the world.

    and what comes after the great depression? why yet another world war, to end all wars. all of that said, welcome back mike, good to have you here where you belong.

    In general, characterizing the Soviet system as dull, uninspiring, seems a bit, only a bit, narrow-minded.

    I guess in every system there are ways to go up for enterprising, smart and ambitious people. Even in very poor and communist Cuba, ambitious individuals can be inspired by a career in the Party.

    These systems fail not because they are dull and uninspiring for ambitious individuals. They fail because they don't deliver to the masses of ordinary individuals.

    The Soviet system also produced very advanced technology and science and a high level of education of the populace.

    Don’t know how it is now in RF, or the other 14 “republics” of the SU, but in USSR the education system — particularly STEMs — was superb. Consumer goods were clearly lousy, but education was second to none.

    Highest priority was given to military and space technologies, but civilian automobiles, white goods and such were so-so (…compared to the West.)

    People in the West have heard of Sputnik, Gagarin et. al.
    But very few people know that Soviets pioneered robotic space exploration when the Lunokhod rovers landed on the Moon.

    perhaps i am jumping to conclusions about her surgical modifications, maybe she has just naturally transformed and devolved, due to her primitive bronze age mentality. i'm sure ivanka (what a beautiful and melodic name, reminiscent of a goose honking) has had several million dollars worth of plastic surgery, starting in her teens, perhaps at daddy's suggestion, tweaking her nose and perhaps her nipples, as the don was known to do. you'd think after what happened to her mother, she might be hesitant to go under the knife, but she's still young there's still time to under go repeated surgeries until she is perfect, just like michael jackson.

    China’s prolonged economic decline has produced a homelessness crisis on a scale the CCP can no longer hide. Government data published by the financial outlet Caixin in September 2025 revealed that approximately 47.5 million people in China are homeless, a more than fivefold increase from 2020.

     

    The founder (and still the publisher) of Caixin is from Stanfard University, California, USA (link) and is almost certainly a part of the US's propaganda apparatus.

    You mean that the police [in China] don’t send the homeless packing when foreigners show up with their entourage of handlers?
     
    China received 150 million tourists in 2025 (link). The country has nowhere near enough police to supervise them all, even if there is an intent to supervise them (there isn't). Do the tourists' videos show homeless people? No.

    The harder the Chinklander economy is failing, the more desperate the anti-US propaganda.

    A LOT less then that!! LOL!!

    China recorded 22.91 million inbound foreign visits in the first half of 2026, marking a 20.4% increase from the previous year. This follows a broader rebound where total inbound visits surpassed 150 million in 2025 (which included travelers from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan alongside 35.17 million strict foreign tourists).

    The above AI blurb does not strip out former Chinklanders going back to Chinkland to visit family, business visits or pre-planned and therefore pre-approved group trips. The number of free range tourists visiting Chinkland is probably only around 10,000 a year. A number well within Chinkland’s ability to assign minders for political correctness. LOL!!!

    Image

    The average Chinklander is dirt poor and lives on well under $200 a month. The poverty line per the CCP is only 4,000 yuan a year. That is around 333 yuan a month or around $48 dollars. With such a low income there can only be widespread poverty and … widespread homelessness. LOL!!!

    If you had bothered to read the page I cited (link to it again), you would have noticed that the figure of 150 million tourists came from China's Minister of Culture and Tourism. Given China's harsh punishments for corruption, I'll believe the Minister over your words, the words of a proven liar.

    Further confirmation of the 150 million figure comes directly from China's government (link): "In 2025, the country recorded more than 150 million inbound tourist visits". The country is expecting to receive 190 million tourists a year by 2030.

    Thus your fanciful notion (probably based on what would happen in Stinkia), that China has enough police to chase the homeless people away from 150 million tourists, is total nonsense. Yet the tourist videos show no homeless, and some of the American tourists admit to being amazed at seeing none.

    I read a good book which covered the deep background to the Mutiny, it was called The Sepoy and the Company, about how the Company recruited and managed its native troops. It was the first time I came across the idea of the Mutiny as a kind of reactionary revolution, where the mutineers wanted to retain their caste status and existence as a warrior class, something the Company had fostered but was now threatening for reasons of economy and the conquest of India being over.

    Also, the British seem to have interpreted it as the Indians sending a message about the need for a more conservative and less liberal form of rule in India.

    I had heard recently that there was some change in the law where people in Britain could gamble in the major American lotteries, and I was thinking that was a new marker for integration in the Anglophone world.

    About the cartridges: the written policy was that they didn’t have to bite them, but could tear them with their hands. Their answer to this was that they might forget and bite them.

    One source of anger was the idea that they would be deployed overseas, thus losing caste by traveling aboard ship.

    They perceived the missionaries as part of a plot to make them lose caste. (Perhaps, Christianity being more universal and going after Dalit converts?) Some officers were aligned with missionaries and brought it to the parade ground.

    I think technology was another factor. The trains and telegraph caused fear and disruption, similar to the Boxers.

    In his book, Thomas Henry Kavanagh wrote that he thought one factor was that Indians learned about the population and size imbalance through the British press publishing about it.

    One of the few remaining second-hand bookshops in my area (I think the only one open to the public for browsing) is an overtly left-wing one, with a specialism in trade unionism and other left-wing political topics. and the owner is a boomer American lady.

    I have always been interested in these “trans pond” characters.

    In the US, there is this movement called the Free Staters. Basically Libertarians who want to push back on the political decline by moving to certain areas and organizing. One target of interest is New Hampshire, a mostly rural state, with a moto that still appears on license plates “Live Free, or Die!”

    One place they moved to was a certain rather small community, circa year 2000, with a population of about 2000 over 40 square miles. And no zoning laws, to start with.

    A few years back, I remember watching some clip they posted on YouTube of them interacting with a town clerk. She had a strong English accent, and was apparently some sort of shitlib, who asked them, after they introduced themselves, “You are not racists are you?”. Those particular people were of the lolbertarian variety, and denied it.

    My one thought was how fantastically weird that you have all these different blow-ins to this extremely rural place. And some of them anti racists, to boot!

    Being held for 10 weeks doesn't really match such a scenario. If after 10 weeks no major evidence was uncovered, then releasing them is pretty normal. By contrast, 13 members of the Bin Laden family were flown out 8 days after 911:

    Was AOK'd by the CIA. The CIA has a long record of using foreign intelligence agencies to carry on domestic spying which the CIA is formally prohibited from doing. The South Korean intelligence agencies have been used in a similar way. The Israelis did definitely communicate some type of intelligence to the CIA over Muslim terrorists. Maybe they didn't communicate everything they could have, that's hard to say. But it was acknowledged that they gave some reports. In general, it seems clear that the FBI and CIA between themselves had enough data to figure everything out.

    But the Bin Laden’s were simply related to OBL. The “Dancing Israelis” were actually observed engaged in suspicious behavior, and had already been detained. It might have aroused suspicions to release them right away.

    In any event, your supposition that there was no backdoor influence in the release of the Doric Towers Five is just that…….supposition.

    It's always difficult to say how far things like that go, simply because different parties will take advantage of circumstances. If the CIA agrees to wink and look the other way while Israel carries out intelligence work, then they expect to get something, but it's possible that some things done by Israelis operating in such circumstances may reach elsewhere. However, on just the matter of alleged Al Qaeda terrorists operating in the USA, we have the following:

    ... The Mossad apparently warned their American counterparts several times about the terrorists, especially about al-Midhar. The American government later admitted that they had received such warnings prior to September 11. But at most that there were attacks planned against American installations outside the United States.

    Die Zeit has learned that a few weeks before the attacks, Israeli intelligence gave US authorities a list with names of suspects who were staying in the US for the purpose of preparing attacks. Apparently not until shortly before September 11 did the CIA recognize that al-Midhar was dangerous and asked law enforcement agencies to look for him.

    FBI and CIA officials were advised in August that as many as 200 terrorists were slipping into this country and planning "a major assault on the United States," a high-ranking law enforcement official said Wednesday.

    The advisory was passed on by the Mossad, Israel's intelligence agency. It cautioned that it had picked up indications of a "large-scale target" in the United States and that Americans would be "very vulnerable," the official said.

    It is not known whether U.S. authorities thought the warning to be credible, or whether it contained enough details to allow counter-terrorism teams to come up with a response.

    If we adopt the version of a conspiracy where the whole Arab attack is fake, then this would have to be considered as just a game played between FBI, CIA, Mossad to gin up a belief in Arab hijackers. But if we accept that the Arab hijackers are real, then what would be the point of the Mossad communicating such messages to the FBI and CIA, if they didn't want the attack to be stopped? Wouldn't it make more sense to just say nothing, if the Israelis were really planning on deliberately allowing the attack to succeed?

  • This is a pretty important history:

    https://arctotherium.substack.com/p/the-closure-of-the-internet

    The closure of the Internet occurred in two distinct phases: 2015-2019 (associated with the 2015 migrant crisis, Brexit, Donald Trump’s election, and the so-called alt-right) and 2020-2022 (associated with the lockdowns and the 2020 election). Almost all of the technical and organizational infrastructure and conceptual justifications were built out in the first phase, which successfully decapitated and destroyed the previously-independent, but by definition fringe, online ecosystem of ideas. In the second phase, the same weapons that previously targeted heterodox online discourse were turned against opposition to the COVID measures du joure and mainstream conservatives. The scale of censorship has no precedent; tens of millions of accounts suppressed or banned, billions of posts removed.

    These purges are usually framed as a direct response to particular events or atrocities. For example Amazon ostensibly removed all Confederate flag merchandise from their web store in response to Dylan Roof’s 2015 massacre of black churchgoers. This is a mistake. Atrocities without a propaganda campaign from the press and political pressure from an opaque network of governments and quasi-government NGOs lead to no changes. There were no mass purges after Audrey Hale’s 2023 murder of elementary schoolers in Nashville motivated by anti-white hatred or the 2016 murder of five Dallas police officers by an ex-marine motivated by the BLM movement. On the other hand, press campaigns not centered around an atrocity, such as the mass deplatformings of YouTube personalities, lead to the same types of purges as the atrocity-based ones. It is not the atrocity that causes the changes, but the media and behind-the-scenes pressure campaign.

    The late 2010s also featured suppression of heterodoxy offline as well. This combined physical attacks on the streets, as happened to Charles Murray, and the firing of public figures with non-Internet platforms, as with Bo Winegard and Bryan Pesta. Even moderates and liberals in already left-wing institutions were not immune, as the purges of those who valued pluralism in objectivity within the New York Times, ACLU, and many progressive activist organizations showed. As such, the closure of the Internet shut down all avenues for heterodox discourse during the Great Awokening. If you spoke from an institutional platform, you would be fired. If you spoke in person, you would be beaten or shot. And if you spoke online, you would be censored, suppressed, demonetized, and doxxed.

    The closure of the Internet is the most important social phenomenon of the late 2010s. Most young people live online. More than half of American adults under 50 say they use the Internet “almost constantly”. Globally, almost 70% of people are online, and the average Internet user spends almost seven hours a day there. Cyberspace is where most couples meet, where most friend groups hang out, and where most people have fun. There is no alternative for even semi-serious intellectual or hobbyist discussion outside of a handful of low-capacity and carefully gatekept institutions. The word “censorship” does not go far enough; online went from almost completely open and free to a series of “closely monitored playpens,” like going from the American frontier to East Germany in just a few years.

    Whitney did not elaborate on the fact that the US sold euros, not dollars, to prop up the yen. But he did use the word "surprisingly" to characterize this move.

    I speculated on this very issue at the beginning of August, suggesting that this would have the effect of devaluing the euro in relation to the dollar and thus have the effect of at least partially cancelling out the effects of the 15% tariffs (50% on metals) placed on European goods. That is, no matter what they do, it is a constant process of choosing the lesser of two evils, which in turn continues to feed a downward spiral.

    I am no expert here, and I would like to hear others' views on this, but it seems that the US is relying on an ever-increasing array of financial contrivances to maintain its reserve currency status. At some critical juncture, the piper must be paid.

    The idea that the "Fed can generate new debt into infinity" sounds no different than a perpetual motion machine or cold fusion energy to me. It defies physics. There is no such thing as a limitless function that is also practical, and you cannot ever get anything for nothing. For example, every unit of energy converted into work requires some amount of matter to be converted into energy in either a chemical or nuclear reaction. We live in a physical universe, and every monetary and fiscal maneuver is ultimately grounded in the real world, like it or not. Even if reduced to the effort of sheer mental belief, it still requires the brain to burn glucose, i.e. the brain’s fuel, to achieve the synaptic activity between neurons that underpins the idea. Again, you never get anything for nothing, not even your fantasies.

    this is all part of the purposeful destruction of the real economy, especially small businesses, which had once employed more than half of the workforce, before their covid 19 bioweapon attack*, and have been decimated x4 in the last 10 years. that's more than 20% of jobs destroyed along with the lifes works and fortunes, spent building these businesses. add to this the intentional of destruction of as many remaining jobs, through government subsidized a.i. gimmickry and you can begin to see why they are driving the economy off a cliff.

    by creating the next great depression, they will mask the implosion and meltdown of their phony bullshit ponzinomic charade of an economy. they will then loot the whole country and as much of the world as they can get their tentacles wrapped around. this is why they have co-opted cryptocurrency, if it wasn't always just another tulip based economy to begin with. this will allow them to use their invisible emperor's new coin, based on nothing but their mumbo jumbo, to buy up hard assets all over the world.

    That's an attractive idea. I'm not sure why. Is it true? What is a nerd? Was Stalin a nerd? 'Nerd' is a pretty amorphous category, isn't it? With both an intellectual and a physical side to it.

    I was a sliderule whiz and a member of the 'Rocket Club' in high school. That was the post-Sputnik era. Every American high school had a rocket club in those days. "Catch up with the Russkies!" That was the mantra. Was I a nerd?

    Didn't Plato suggest that the best form of government was rule by a 'philosopher king'? That's pretty nerdish, isn't it? Was Marcus Aurelius such a ruler? Or Frederick the Great?

    My family was familiar with the nerd category. One of my younger brother's classmates, the son of a coworker of my dad, was our model. I remember him well. His usually vacant facial expression suggested that he was never quite in touch with what was going on around him.

    One day in class he did an arithmetical calculation at the blackboard. When the teacher pointed out that he was off by several thousand he responded, "I seem to have made a slight miscalculation."

    How we laughed! Not maliciously, but as people laughed at Art Linkletter's Kids-Say-the-Darndest-Things shows. I was not spared. My mother never stopped laughing at me once saying to her, when I was seven or eight, "You must be firm with your children."

Look at that little homicidal Sammy The Bull Gravano, he was like 5’4” tall, Meyer Lansky was what 5’4” 136 lbs, Philadelphia mob boss Little Nicky Scarfo about 5’2”-5’3”, Paul Castellano allegedly gunned down by Gravano and Gotti was one of the rare crime bosses over 6’ tall. Of course big men can be cruel as well but while big most of the large vicious creeps are weak inside like Ed Kemper a big for nothing 6’9” 300 lb guy with mommy issues who preyed on tiny women. I know some inculcated freak wants me to bring up Hitler but Hitler was 5’9” which was normal height for a man back then and IF Hitler was sadistic as (((they))) claim him to be that is uber rare for an animal lover to be cruel. Cue: Cruel To Be Kind by Nick Lowe

    From what I’ve observed the strong are always more merciful than the weak, and surprisingly lots of women can be just as vicious and unfeeling as men. The old saying the world would be a better place if women were in charge is horseshit, it probably would be even more fucked up. It was women who raised these sick bastards after all. Look at all these geeky billionaires ( if you think they came by their money honestly) these little tech nerds and AI freaks don’t care about destroying peoples jobs and livelihoods, they probably cream themselves thinking about it, the all knowing (((AI))), I used to think the Unabomber and his preoccupation with technology destroying the World was batshit crazy but looks like the guy was right.

Most adult men still into things like that would be “partying “ with 25-35 year old women, not girls. Now we know why Gates bought all that farm land in Georgia , 270,000 acres. I think Georgia has more AI data centers than any other state. Ivanka is a drip. She has the personality of a dish rag.

    Exactly correct. I have made several trips to the ME, on DoD chartered vessels hauling materiel, including tanks and everything else. My first trip was to Dubai in 1991. These ships ranged from large Roll On-Roll Off of the Bob Hope classs to U. S. Naval research vessels of the Henson Class. I also worded on large RoRo in Houston, TX that was a standby sealift vessel, for the Military Sea Lift Command. There were other chartered vessels [private under charter to DoD], including tankers which refueled Navy warships at sea.

    Projecting expeditionary force halfway around the world, involves an enormous amount of sea lift cargo. From spare parts, to food, medicine, materiel*

    * arms, ammunition, and equipment in general.

    We do not have the sea lift capacity, nor the wartime economy, nor the money, nor the head count of military personnel, nor the equipment [50% or less of F-35 jets are available at any given time]. Our equipment is dated, out of date, and there are not only extreme shortfalls of armaments, but also spare parts AND the personnel to work on equipment.

    In short, we cannot field a force that has any chance at success in a ground invasion. Time is on Iran’s side. Iran will be endlessly supplied by Russian, China, and North Korea. Iran is another Afghanistan. Instead of 20 years, the conflict would be over in 2 weeks.

    This whole fantasy will end when Iran hits an aircraft carrier, setting it afire and inert.

    Thanks, yet let’s not underestimate Trump’s puppetmasters ordering a ground invasion specifically so that the Marines or Army units get slaughtered like hunting ducks in a bathtub. This would inflame outrage among the American people, in turn, justifying all-out war, including tactical nukes. Like 9/11 benefitting Israel, it would dovetail with Miller’s threat to suspend due process as a wartime measure.

    Written like a real disinfo dirtbag.

    "Seen by Thousands"? Name "them" and of the witnesses - how many worked for the Media. Especially on the day of 9/11...they were all Media.

    1. A Psy-Ops of the size of 9/11 would have come ready made with Witnesses --"Crisis Actors". As we saw on 9/11 ---ready made lying shitbags on the payroll (kind of like Miss Anon):

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxQ2-DcZuR4


    2. It has already been proven Israel was heavily involved in 9/11. NYC had well over 1 MILLION Zionist Jews living there. How many of your witnesses were Zionist JEWS?

    3. False Memories - Mass Psychosis --a percentage of the population will adopt what is being told to them by authority figures.

    4. NONE ---ZERO---of the "Witnesses" have ever been crossed examined in a court of law. The same with the supposed amateur videos showing UA Flight 175 crashing into the south tower --None of these people have ever been deposed and place under oath. None of their videos have ever been validated as real --none of them have ever been sent to a third party independent Lab for forensic analysis. There is Zero chain of custody of any of the crime scene photos or videos.

    "which disintegrated into identifiable wreckage"

    That is the exact point we "bunch of lunatics" point out. A Boeing 767-200 has hundreds of thousands of Serially controlled Parts --each stamped with a part number. That part number is listed in the maintenance records / installation / build records of the aircraft.

    Of the 4 supposed crash sites --Not One serially controlled part was ever presented as evidence matching the plane to the part. Not One.

    So explain yourself muffin boy ---What identifiable Wreckage are you claiming to have seen?

    There are hundreds of Commercial Aircraft scrap yards throughout the US. It would be very easy to plant a few aircraft shards after the event -----All 4 crash sites were immediately closed off by the FBI. Same FBI that took part in the Psy-Ops.

    The US bond market is already in a nosedive and it is going to drag the US economy off a cliff. Who gives a shit about the rest of the world? I don't. What I care about is if the crashing bond market is going to take down the record high housing and stock bubbles. For one thing, it would be good if real estate crashed with higher rates. Houses would become affordable if they dropped 90%. The only reason why starter homes are $750,000 was QE and record low rates in the 2-3% ranges. Fools piled into huge mortgages expecting the bubble to keep going forever. But it didn't and now mortgage rates are edging up, following the 10 year Treasury (plus 200 basis points).

    https://www.elliottwave.com/articles/bond-vigilantes-are-back-what-rising-yields-mean/

    The chart you need to see now, the (14 Aug 2026) 10 year treasury chart showing wave 3 of 3 up starting now. Bond yields are stair stepping into a impulse wave up pattern according to EWT technicians.
    https://i.imgur.com/mc6Mqmo.png

    About a decade ago I recognized the long term pattern in 10 year Treasury bond yields. Since the creation of the inflation engine, the Federal Reserve banking cartel, in 1913, interest rates have gone unstable - forming a giant megaphone pattern with one last leg to go.

    Around year 2016 I posted this chart on my blog:
    https://i.imgur.com/uhQOxIq.png

    As you can see, interest rates did bottom in 2020 and now they are on the rise, even so, 99.9999% of the people currently in the system have no idea what is about to transpire – rapidily rising rates from out of control spending and monetary expansion during Covid hoax years. During Covid the Fed jacked the M1 money supply 16 trillion overnight - this fueled the everything bubble yet is not stopping interest rates from going back up.

    So what is coming down the Albert C Pike highway to hell? A Biblical level financial crisis which will be studied and talked about for centuries. The USA has made an epic mistake of playing with Zionist monster (assisting Israel with 911) and painting itself into a corner with massive debt. The USA is 40 trillion in debt and projected to add another 24 trillion in just the next decade. Like what do these morons think is going to happen?

    Gookag Ai - "The national debt held by the public is projected to increase by $25 trillion over the next decade, while gross federal debt is expected to surge by roughly $25.1 trillion.

    According to the latest 10-year outlook from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), the U.S. will far exceed its historical “trillion-dollar-a-year” pace.

    Deficits are actually projected to total $24.4 trillion over the next decade, averaging over $2.4 trillion in net new debt every single year."
     
    Bond holders are not amused. Russia sold all it’s treasury debt. China sold half so far, and is buying gold with both hands bleeding. The world has been reacting to our massive debts. The sane people of the world can see we are insane and want no part of our self sabotage operation. Unsurprisingly, interest rates are moving up. Interest on the debt now exceeds a trillion a year – the biggest line item on the budget. But what is Clowngress and POTUS doing as China, Russia, and everyone else is selling out bonds?

    How does the Orange moron respond? Let’s submit a budget by increasing Pentacon spending by 50% to 1.5 trillion! Trump should be leaving the middle east and cutting the war budget by 50%. Stupid evil war mongering Trump is doing EXACTLY the wrong move. This we should expect, Trump is an egotistical moron who always makes the wrong move. What is going to surprise Trump and everyone else, is rapidly rising interest rates. Which they will not be able to stop. And when they try to stop them, it will only make the situation worse.

    Goolag Ai - Yukon Jack argues that many doom-and-gloom financial analysts are wrong when they predict the United States will suffer a currency collapse identical to Zimbabwe or Weimar Germany. In those cases, “backwater nations” simply printed extra zeros on paper currency. The U.S. is a sophisticated first-world global hegemon, its monetary destruction will manifest through the bond market, not just raw printing presses. The Federal Reserve cannot allow inflation to run entirely uncontained without completely destroying its global institutional credibility.

    2. The Inevitability of a “Volcker-Style” Pivot

    Because the Fed is forced to protect the credibility of the U.S. Treasury market, Yukon Jack argues that central bankers will ultimately have no choice but to replace leadership with an ultra-anti-inflation hawk. He frequently points to figures like former St. Louis Fed CEO James Bullard as candidates who could act as a modern Paul Volcker.

    (note – Trump installed inflation hawk Kevin Warsh)

    To crush structural inflation and defend the bond market from the government’s trillion-dollar deficit spending, Yukon Jack asserts this “New Volcker” would be forced to jack the benchmark interest rate up to astronomical, multi-decade highs—sending rates “to the moon”.
     
    Not ready for interest rates going to the moon? Too fucking bad! Mother Nature does not give one shit that your culture and society allowed this to happen. How fucking sick is Amerika which endorses, bankrolls, and assists the Israeli hellions in genocide, helped Israel do 911, protects Satanyahu from prosecution, attacks the criminal court trying to prosecute, spends trillions on wars for Israhell and elects a Zionist lunatic for POTUS? What happens when the chickens come home to roost?:

    For example, if, here in America, PBS and NPR openly advocated for the slaughter of white women and children as racial justice, the Republicans would continue funding those outlets by pretending it was necessary to keep the government open. You know, the way the Republicans under those fussy queens McConnell and Ryan fully funded Planned Parenthood in secret during Trump’s first term.

  • Whitney did not elaborate on the fact that the US sold euros, not dollars, to prop up the yen. But he did use the word “surprisingly” to characterize this move.

    I speculated on this very issue at the beginning of August, suggesting that this would have the effect of devaluing the euro in relation to the dollar and thus have the effect of at least partially cancelling out the effects of the 15% tariffs (50% on metals) placed on European goods. That is, no matter what they do, it is a constant process of choosing the lesser of two evils, which in turn continues to feed a downward spiral.

    I am no expert here, and I would like to hear others’ views on this, but it seems that the US is relying on an ever-increasing array of financial contrivances to maintain its reserve currency status. At some critical juncture, the piper must be paid.

    The idea that the “Fed can generate new debt into infinity” sounds no different than a perpetual motion machine or cold fusion energy to me. It defies physics. There is no such thing as a limitless function that is also practical, and you cannot ever get anything for nothing. For example, every unit of energy converted into work requires some amount of matter to be converted into energy in either a chemical or nuclear reaction. We live in a physical universe, and every monetary and fiscal maneuver is ultimately grounded in the real world, like it or not. Even if reduced to the effort of sheer mental belief, it still requires the brain to burn glucose, i.e. the brain’s fuel, to achieve the synaptic activity between neurons that underpins the idea. Again, you never get anything for nothing, not even your fantasies.

    The crucial issue is the creditworthiness of the federal state. Because America needs time to re-industrialize to undo decades of neolib mismanagement, and while that is achieved (if ever) America needs capital inflows.

    America is a deficit nation, it needs constant influx of capital to pay for basic things. By 2025 the Net International Investment Position was -28 trillion.

    For the influx of capital to be much larger than the outflows, it is necessary that the value of the US$ vis-a-vis other currencies that are or could be as abundant as the US$, be high, so lenders think they will be payed with good money.

    Yet financial trickery cann't go too far.

    America needs to do two things at the same time to remain creditworthy: (1) attack and rob enemies, and (2) consume and rob allies. Essentially, increase assets.

    That's what behind the desire to annex Greenland and Canada (consume allies) and the attack on Venezuela (attack enemies): to remain creditworthy by presenting a larger pool of assets to international creditors.

    So to contribute to your thinking, America is not relying entirely on financial chicaneries, it is also trying to increase assets by taking over property of other states.

    It is not a bad strategy. Actually, it's what has to be done, IMO. The problem is that American leadership at the highest level is low-IQ so it is easily distracted from the main strategy by actors like Israel, so the strategy of attacking enemies and consuming allies has been implemented poorly.

    Israel is using America as proxy by playing on the 'attack enemies' aspect of the strategy, but a much easier and productive path is to consume allies. Our idiot president was convinced that attacking Iran would be an easy achievement of the 'attack enemies' aspect of the general strategy, because, well, because he's an idiot.

    Other people told him, focus on annexing Greenland, then perhaps Canada, Greenland is low-hanging fruit, but the idiot was easily led down the harder sub-strategy 'attack enemies'.

    "Finally, If aluminum really could penetrate steel, there would be aluminum bullets and aluminum anti-tank rounds, so no wonder you try to change the subject to the smoke, but maybe you should now find some sideshow strongman to break Occam’s Razor with his bare hands. "

    So, as the Polish guy in the video that I sent to you did break a steel wrench with his bare hands, it follows that there must be bullets and anti-tank rounds made out of Polish guys? Is this your logic?

    No, there are no, and there are no bullets and anti-tank rounds made out of aluminum because in order to aluminum to break steel, the cross section of aluminum that hits steel must be very large. If the cross section is small, like in a bullet, the soft bullet spreads over a larger area. The material still has momentum towards the target, but as the area is larger, pressure (force/area) is smaller and the bullet does not penetrate.

    But consider what happens if the cross section is large, let's say, circular like the cross section of a bullet. From the circumsphere of this circle aluminum matter can spread outwards, so in the circumsphere pressure can decrease by softer matter spreading. But how about the area near the center of the circle? It does not have time to go to the circumsphere, the impact time is too short. It cannot escape anywhere, where-ever it goes, it is still in the original area of impact. The pressure does not decrease significantly by softer matter spreading.

    You can prove this easily. Take a toothpick and try to punch a hole in the tin chassis of your car. The toothpick spreads, pressure decreases and the toothpick does not do any damage to the tin. But take a sack with some 50 kg of these toothpicks and smash the car hard with the sack. You will get some tin damage. Why would there be any difference if the hitting mass is large or small, if all that matters is hardness of materials?

    About your video analysis, many or all videos can be fake. There are many fake things in this 9/11 case. Like, did the passport of a terrorist really fall from the plane to the street? I am not saying that all proposed evidence is authentic, much is fake. But the job of an investigator of what really happened is to find hard evidence from this mess of real and fake pieces of information.

    First of all, you’ve got to explain how aluminum can cut, break or penetrate steel and provide hard evidence of it.

Now, it’s a sack of toothpicks, but as I said, you do provide comic relief with your idiotic arguments.

    Perhaps they did, but as I’ve told you, there is not even a single mention of a fireball in CNN’s 9/11 transcript, which includes many eyewitness accounts, including the very first ones, but no fireball.

    But go ahead and post some eyewitness accounts of fireballs on 9/11. The fireballs were the most shocking and spectacular part of the televised 9/11 psychodrama, so there should be many accounts of them, but not a single eyewitness interviewed by CNN at the time mentioned any fireballs.

    It is simply so that hardness of material protects it against scratches, it still can be broken in many ways, like a diamond can be broken by an impact, and steel can be bent too much. here you have AI answer to the question can aluminum break steel?

    "Yes, aluminum can break or penetrate steel, but only under specific high-energy, thermal, or chemical conditions. As a standard solid tool, soft aluminum cannot cut or machine harder steel because steel has much higher tensile strength and hardness."

    In the plane crash there were these special high-energy conditions.

    Let's stop this about aluminum. You are wrong, that's all.

    • Jim Hoffman’s page with all five charts posted individually:
    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/seismic.html

    • Kim et al. – the first official LDEO paper:
    https://web.archive.org/web/20240503035027/https://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/LCSN/Eq/20010911_WTC/WTC_LDEO_KIM.pdf

    https://web.archive.org/web/20030320090510/http://www.mgs.md.gov/esic/publications/download/911pentagon.pdf

    I have one argument, based on the first and the second on this list.

    A WTC tower was about 500,000,000 kg and as the height was some 460 m, we can assume that in collapse mass fell c. 200 m. This means that the potential energy of this tower was E=mgh = 9.81*5*10^8*2*10^2 J =9.81*10^11 J.

    In TNT it is 235-240 kg of TNT, that is 0.235-0.24 kTNT.

    If there had been an explosion of c. 0.3 kTNT, then it would be roughly equal (a bit larger) than the potential energy of the building.

    According to the seismic data, energy that caused the collapse signal was released over 5-6 seconds. That must have come from the potential energy because the potential energy was released over some 10 seconds when stuff fell out of the building and some 5-6 seconds this energy was so strong that it gave the seismic signal (which does not stop to 5-6 seconds, it continues as weaker when the building was almost collapsed).

    Notice that there is no starting peak in the seismic data. There is this 5-6 seconds long signal. This is the key.

    Had there been an explosion of 0.3 kTNT, it would have given a peak to the signal to the beginning. This peak would come from energy that is a bit larger than all energy released from potential energy. This peak would be very clearly visible in the seismic signal as at least three times higher peak than the rest of the 5-6 second signal.

    There was no such peak. This means, there was no nuke of the size 0.3 kTNT. You may only have a nuke that is some ten times smaller, so that it does not show clearly in the seismic signal.

    Replies: @j2, @Fact Checker

    Alright, let’s see now. The best estimates we’ve got of mass and potential energy come from Gregory Urich’s paper. According to Urich, the mass of each tower came in at about 300,000 tons and the potential energy, at about 500 GJ. This potential energy is roughly equivalent to 120 tons of TNT.

    https://www.journalof911studies.com/volume/200703/GUrich/MassAndPeWtc.pdf#page=23

    Equipped with these estimates, you can now redo your calculations using better figures. As you can readily see, 300 tons of TNT would represent the equivalent of about two-and-a-half towers’ worth of potential energy. Only a fraction of that would however shake the bedrock. The proportion is hard to tell but I’d put it at one-tenth or so, perhaps a little higher.

    You are still stuck in your reading of the seismic charts through certain glasses. I would again advise you to reconsider and to take off those glasses. The statement that “there is this 5-6 seconds long signal” is highly dubious. The duration of the signal depends, of course, on where you draw the line between signal and noise. Even with a very high barrier, you’ll end up with a longer signal than 5-6 seconds, and with a reasonably set bar, the signal is more like 20 seconds up at the PAL station.

    The absence of a starting peak at the reading station doesn’t imply there is no starting peak at the origin. I’ve already made this point but it bears repeating, certainly as it apparently didn’t register. Semi-open pit detonations are an entirely different beast than earthquakes or deep underground explosions such as nuclear tests. You cannot just take the earthquake schematic off the shelf and apply it to these events we’re talking about. That would amount to misapplication. If you look at the Kim et al paper, they served this up on the last page. The North Tower collapse chart sure doesn’t look anything like the earthquake chart below. But this is misleading, a comparison of apples to pears. Or even oranges, for our stateside readers.

    If you take a look at the previous page in the same paper, you’ll see how the two stations located right on the Hudson River – Pallisades (PAL) and Mount Airy (MANY) – display certain common peculiarities. These are more obvious at MANY than at PAL, but when you look at the PAL chart in this context, you’ll realise the signal is not only increasingly distributed but also bifurcates. By the time it gets to MANY, we’ve got two “humps” of activity. This shows how seismic waves travel in a somewhat different manner along rivers than across ordinary dry land. The other stations do not display these peculiarities, but have single-hump charts.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20240503035027/https://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/LCSN/Eq/20010911_WTC/WTC_LDEO_KIM.pdf#page=8

    Clearly the waves travel at slightly different speeds on either side of the Hudson, and the general transmission speeds are much lower (about 2 km/s) than what is ordinarily thought to apply to S-waves let alone P-waves. What this suggests to me is we’re dealing primarily with surface waves (L and R) here, not with deeper earthquake-type waves. So those glasses simply need to come off in order to properly see what’s going on in these charts.

    If you look at the one “simple” event we’ve got in the five WTC charts, namely the South Tower impact chart, you’ll see that this, too, is symmetrically distributed. We know this is a plane hitting the tower, which is a well-defined “shock”. Even so, by the time it reaches PAL, there is no apparent shock frontier on it, but only a symmetrically distributed hump lasting about 3-4 seconds.

    Image
    This chart tells us something about the conditions for propagation from origin to station, and it also tells us that the vertical steel in the buildings worked like a “steel radio” or “tuning fork” transmitting shocks from way up in the buildings down to bedrock and then on to PAL. This, too, is a very important finding as it shows that as long as the “steel radio” is connected to bedrock, the ruckus caused by collapsing buildings will be transmitted down into bedrock and then onto PAL.

    When you apply this to the Twin Towers collapses – and to Building 7, too, for that matter – you’ll find there is no such thing as a “5-6 second signal” for the towers. There’s a signal of about that duration, or slightly longer, for Building 7 coming down. For the towers, the duration is much longer than that. Video footage shows that the collapses took up towards 20 seconds for the South Tower, and 23-24 seconds for the North Tower. For the most part, the “steel radio” was turned on during the collapses, which means the signals should register at PAL. As the surely did, if you set the signal-to-noise ratio at the appropriate level.

    I’ll make one more point here and now. In the Kim & Baum paper, you’ll find a “local explosion” in the big multistation chart on page 9. This is a quarry detonation, so is of particular interest for WTC comparison even though it is small potatoes by comparison. The detonation happens somewhere east of Yale (YLE) and also shows up in the Lakeside (LSCT) chart. So it’s all local to Connecticut, yet says a lot about the transmission conditions in that general direction, which becomes relevant to the PAL and MANY stations as well.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20030320090510/http://www.mgs.md.gov/esic/publications/download/911pentagon.pdf#page=9

    What’s peculiar here is the very low transmission speed, for one, and which amounts to a measly 1 km/s if even that. That’s how slowly surface action propagates in this area. The other peculiarity is the bifurcation that shows at LSCT but not at YLE. The explosion apparently generates signals at different frequencies, which travel at slightly different speeds. When they’re teased apart, one can readily see the more explosion-like concentrated hump to the left, and the other, more distributed low-frequency hump to the right.

    This quarry blast might seem like an irrelevant footnote, but I think not. It helps us understand not only the nature of the WTC blasts and how they can be expected to manifest themselves in seismic charts, but also the clearly reduced transmission speeds seen in the PAL-MANY direction compared to other inland directions. I think that adds an important layer to our understanding of the seismic activity that took place at the World Trade Center on 9/11. Mind you, this is a jigsaw puzzle where we try to fit the pieces together to the best of our ability, and that’s precisely why I wanted to hear your take on these issues. As it stands right now, I find it hard to agree with your interpretation, but then we’ve only just got started. It’s an iterative process, and I feel I can benefit from your observations even when I do not agree with them.

    I’ll stop here for now. There is absolutely no rush with this, so don’t feel pressed. Besides, Mr Marshall’s advertised Part 3 isn’t out yet, so there will be plenty of time to continue discussion in that comment section as well, when the time comes.

    "According to Urich, the mass of each tower came in at about 300,000 tons and the potential energy, at about 500 GJ. This potential energy is roughly equivalent to 120 tons of TNT. "

    I find mostly 450,000,000 kg as the weight of the building, including what was inside it. If we calculate more precisely that the center of the weight is not at the middle of the building because the steel structures on lower floor are stronger and heavier, we probably can set the center of weight to 170 m. Then the potential energy is 7.5*10^11 J, which is 180 kg of TNT. Could it be that Urich counts only the building itself, not the mass of everything that was in the building.

    The first link gave seismographic signals in Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University, 34 km from WTC buildings. That is a rather small distance, so the signals should not have distorted very much.

    In the impact of the plane to WTC1, we see very much an impulse response, that is, the output from a system that is given an impulse (infinitely short pulse). It looks like that because the system has limited bandwidth and cannot react infinitely fast. You see rather fast growing signal and then oscillations. You see similar impulse responses in EM-waves in all communication systems, and in voice recording and everywhere. The important thing to notice is that after the rise time (which reflects the bandwidth of the system), the signal decreases from the maximum. This is also what one should expect from a nuclear explosion in the beginning of the collapse of WTC1 because this signal goes along the same routes to the seismic lab.

    Look at the signal from the collapse of WTC1. The figure does not show an impulse response looking similar to the plane impact. If there is an impulse response from an explosion (a very fast pulse), it is superimposed on other data. The other data has a peak later than the peak in the plane impact plot.

    Does the signal from WTC1 collapse show signals from falling of material from the building? I think it does because there is material falling in the WTC7 plot. So, the second stronger peak in the seismic signal of the WTC1 collapse may be material falling from the building.

    As you point out, most of the energy of an explosion does not go to the seismic signal.

    But judging from the signal from the collapse of WTC1, I think if might very well be so that the seismic signal is completely produced by falling matter. If so, the explosion did not give any measurable signal, it was too weak.

    If this is one possible explanation (and I think it is possible), then nothing can be learned about the explosion by looking at this seismic data.

    As said, I have no competence in analyzing seismic signals and cannot be of any help.

    @Fact Checker

    I will rewrite my answer to you in a clearer way.

    Let's start with the plane impact to WTC1. The seismic signal looks like a typical impulse response. Impulse is the nearly instantaneous impact of the plane, the system is the whole building and ground transporting the signal to the seismic lab. The signal that this system outputs, i.e., what the plot shows, is the input response. The system cannot transport infinitely fast changes (technically, it cuts high frequencies), so the signal rises slower and then it decreases slowly as the system oscillates after an impulse. This plot looks very clean and good. The plane impact on WTC2 is not so good, the signal comes many ways, we will not look at the plots for WTC2.

    If there is an explosion in WTC1 before the collapse begins, it is another impulse to the same system. It should give a similar input response, but looking at the plot of the collapse of WTC1, the plot is not similar to the plane impact. What does this mean?

    As this plot corresponds to the time when the building collapses and material falls, we can suspect that this plot also shows signals generated by falling material. So, there could be an input response to the nuclear explosion overlayed on signals coming from falling material. How can we explain this plot?

    There are three ways:
    1. It could be that the plot only shows falling material (this is like the official story says it is), and there was no explosion at all.

    2. It could be that there was an explosion, but it was too small to be measured in the seismic station (like if it was 1000 TNT) and the plot only shows falling material.

    3. It could be that there was a large explosion by a nuke, but to the ground and seismic signal went so little that it cannot be measured. The plot only shows falling material.

    4. It could be that the explosion was large enough to be measured and it is the first peak in the signal, the rest is falling material.

    5. It could be that the explosion was large enough to be measured, it is the first peak, but also the explosion was big, it was a small nuke, but only very little went to the seismic signal.

    and so on.

    As a result, we have too many possible explanations, we do not learn anything from these plots.

    I have one argument, based on the first and the second on this list.

    A WTC tower was about 500,000,000 kg and as the height was some 460 m, we can assume that in collapse mass fell c. 200 m. This means that the potential energy of this tower was E=mgh = 9.81*5*10^8*2*10^2 J =9.81*10^11 J.

    In TNT it is 235-240 kg of TNT, that is 0.235-0.24 kTNT.

    If there had been an explosion of c. 0.3 kTNT, then it would be roughly equal (a bit larger) than the potential energy of the building.

    According to the seismic data, energy that caused the collapse signal was released over 5-6 seconds. That must have come from the potential energy because the potential energy was released over some 10 seconds when stuff fell out of the building and some 5-6 seconds this energy was so strong that it gave the seismic signal (which does not stop to 5-6 seconds, it continues as weaker when the building was almost collapsed).

    Notice that there is no starting peak in the seismic data. There is this 5-6 seconds long signal. This is the key.

    Had there been an explosion of 0.3 kTNT, it would have given a peak to the signal to the beginning. This peak would come from energy that is a bit larger than all energy released from potential energy. This peak would be very clearly visible in the seismic signal as at least three times higher peak than the rest of the 5-6 second signal.

    There was no such peak. This means, there was no nuke of the size 0.3 kTNT. You may only have a nuke that is some ten times smaller, so that it does not show clearly in the seismic signal.

    Replies: @j2, @Fact Checker

    To fact-checker:

    Let’s continue with this basement explosive problem. In 1993 Yusuf, a known bomb builder, made a urane nitrate bomb corresponding to c. 500 kg of TNT. It was placed to a parking lot under WTC, exploded and did not cause any significant damage to the building. The explosion was not seen in seismic data even from 16 km away. A failed attempt, but what made Yousef think that 500 kg of TNT would suffice if Taylor thinks it should be 100 kTNT?

    I think Yousef had heard that the building had a demolition plan (like Iris said) where explosives of 500 kg TNT in the basement cause the building to collapse. This could be reasonable. I personally think that 1000 kg of TNT placed to correct spots brings down most buildings. But Yousef maybe did not know where this explosive was supposed to be put, or he knew but his co-workers did not care to carry 500 kg to the correct spot, or could not because the doors were locked. So it failed but was not at all a stupid attack with too little explosives.

    So, use 1000 kg of TNT, 500 kg would probably suffice. No seismic data will be seen and the building comes down with a gravitational collapse when the central core is lowered by some meters. That this is a design feature of the building, the original demolition plan that Yousef might have obtained in some way or at least heard of.

    When will Iran get its act together and make credible offer?


    Breaking: Iran won't negotiate with the US until Trump's term is done

    In a major setback to efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and cool Middle East tensions, Iran ruled out any future negotiations with United States (US) President Donald Trump, according to Iranian outlets and a X post by an adviser to Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf. Headlines note that Tehran will wait until the US President’s term ends on January 20, 2029, to resume talks.

    "Trump will not reach an agreement with us. We will accompany him until his term ends," Majid Shakeri, adviser to Ghalibaf, said.

    This worked for them in 1980 (in getting rid of Carter).

    Does that propaganda work for domestic Iranian consumption?

    It will not fly internationally:

    • What will Iran use for money over the next 2½ years? They’re broke now. They can’t hold out that long.
    • They will not get a better deal from Vance (or possibly Rubio). Newsom is damaged goods. The Democrats could nominate AOC.
    • Iran will lose massive amounts of leverage by then. (1)

    Secretary Bessent Outlines Reality of Capital Markets Making the Strait of Hormuz Irrelevant

    Even if Iran completely acquiesced to all of the most stringent terms and conditions requested by President Trump, they will never again recapture the position they held with the Strait of Hormuz as a chokepoint.

    Capital markets respond to risk in the medium and long term; risks are always mitigated. With the Strait now identified as a strategic risk, the emphasis will be on forever neutralizing that risk and avoiding the issue in the future. As a consequence, Iran’s strongest point of leverage is disappearing now and will continue to disappear.

    As further explained by James Thorne on X: “By repeatedly signaling its willingness to disrupt the Strait of Hormuz, Tehran hasn’t strengthened its hand, it has accelerated the market’s exit. Capital does not tolerate chokepoints; it routes around them.

    Saudi Arabia is expanding its East-West pipeline. The UAE has already built out Fujairah as a bypass. Iraq is revisiting overland export corridors. Every marginal dollar now flows toward redundancy, not reliance. What was once a geopolitical lever is being engineered into irrelevance. Bessent gets it: markets don’t absorb coercion; they arbitrage it away.

    Energy markets are not static, and they are not sentimental. The shale revolution already diluted OPEC’s grip. LNG has globalized gas. Now infrastructure is doing the same to maritime risk. Once these pipelines are built, they don’t get unbuilt. Volume shifts become permanent. Pricing power follows.

    Tehran’s miscalculation is classic: overplay a scarce asset, and the world invests to make it abundant. The more Iran rattles Hormuz, the faster it erodes the very leverage it seeks to exploit.

    In the end, this is not deterrence. Its substitution and substitution, once funded, is irreversible. Iran is underwriting its own marginalization.”

    A 40-year generational problem is being resolved forever!

    Kuwait is taking about plugging into Iraqi and/or Saudi networks.

    The Trans-Arabian Pipeline (Tapline) oil export route through Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon could be brought back.

    The US could invade and that invasion would thorough, fast and devastating.
     
    Not so. First, there has to be a staging area along with logistical support. Then, the troops need a way to get to where they are going. Once there the support angle comes into play. Think of Desert Storm. It took almost six months to stage before the attack. Half a million troops were required, along with heavy mobile artillery and up-close round the clock air attacks.

    What Iran has done is to move the US far away from any reasonable staging location. If the US attempted to mass troops for a ground invasion (in Desert Storm the US used KSA), Iran would immediately begin attacking those forces. It is why the US uses stand off attacks from hundreds of miles away in its current War for Miriam's Dollars. Because Iran has made any close-up attacks impossible.

    There is really no conceivable way the US could stage a successful ground attack on Iran. At least one that would not cost many thousands of American deaths.

    Exactly correct. I have made several trips to the ME, on DoD chartered vessels hauling materiel, including tanks and everything else. My first trip was to Dubai in 1991. These ships ranged from large Roll On-Roll Off of the Bob Hope classs to U. S. Naval research vessels of the Henson Class. I also worded on large RoRo in Houston, TX that was a standby sealift vessel, for the Military Sea Lift Command. There were other chartered vessels [private under charter to DoD], including tankers which refueled Navy warships at sea.

    Projecting expeditionary force halfway around the world, involves an enormous amount of sea lift cargo. From spare parts, to food, medicine, materiel*

    * arms, ammunition, and equipment in general.

    We do not have the sea lift capacity, nor the wartime economy, nor the money, nor the head count of military personnel, nor the equipment [50% or less of F-35 jets are available at any given time]. Our equipment is dated, out of date, and there are not only extreme shortfalls of armaments, but also spare parts AND the personnel to work on equipment.

    In short, we cannot field a force that has any chance at success in a ground invasion. Time is on Iran’s side. Iran will be endlessly supplied by Russian, China, and North Korea. Iran is another Afghanistan. Instead of 20 years, the conflict would be over in 2 weeks.

    Short note:

    I know many Russians of 40-70 yr old. I've characterized the fall of the Soviet system in these pages as: for want of toilet paper.

    However, all the Russians I've met describe very happy childhoods. They said during summer, school breaks and on weekends they went out of their house in the morning and returned house late in the afternoon, playing safely with friends all day, and in the southern republics, eating good fruit to keep on playing.

    Generally what happens is when Americans evaluate a different culture they use a filter system that had been created for them in the late nineteenth/early twentieth century (and I am beginning to suspect perhaps much earlier) which is designed to channel evaluations along the course of everything American is superior and the proper way of doing things and so if an American sees something in a different culture that negates that viewpoint he or she automatically thinks that something must be a conscious fake or it is just a very minor exception to the general “foreign bad” rule. This affects almost every American due to their growing up in that cultural context although some do experience cognitive dissonance.

    Just look at political debates, read old editorial opinions, watch archived documentaries made in the US from say 1950 (or even 1900) onwards to now; they are all quite limited in options and straddle a very restricted political spectrum. That’s not just peculiar cultural quirk-it is the result of a conscious effort to create a society that is designed to be submissive to the decisions made by the elite.

    Trump opposes Hamas and their October 7 Genocide Attack. There is no support for Gaza genocide.

    If you want to help save civilians — Have you called on Islamic nations to accept their coreligionists as refugees? They would be much safer elsewhere, such as Pakistan or Indonesia.

    What would have been your proposed plan for the Hostage Rescue SMO?

    Please explain the better option:

    — Genocidal Hamas never negotiated in good faith. There was no way to talk them into being reasonable.
    — Rational observers see that the IDF largely did the best they could. Hamas, and their co-conspirator genocidal UNRWA, built combat facilities in and under civilian infrastructure.

    Trump supports the Board with Peace agreement for Gaza, which requires Hamas to disarm. Has genocidal Hamas disarmed yet? When will they? Never?

    I expect this is another example of bad faith on their side. While parts of the BoP deal sound good, Hamas will prevent it coming to fruition.

Anyway, political candidates in America are largely golems created by media teams. In politics here and in Europe, Australia, Canada, etc., the media—that is, the Jews who control the media—grant or deny political existence and frame the debate to suit their purposes.

    For example, if, here in America, PBS and NPR openly advocated for the slaughter of white women and children as racial justice, the Republicans would continue funding those outlets by pretending it was necessary to keep the government open. You know, the way the Republicans under those fussy queens McConnell and Ryan fully funded Planned Parenthood in secret during Trump’s first term.

    If you have yet to see Larry Johnson’s true Zionist colours, watch this interview. The illegal Jewish terrorist settlers have been attempting to downplay the mass murder of over 500,000 to 600,000 innocent, unarmed Palestinians since October 2023 by claiming that only 75,000 have been killed in Gaza. Larry Johnson, the self-styled "well-informed analyst," asserts that the total is 100,000 over the last 40 odd years. However, according to The Lancet, the figure is likely closer to 300,000, while Ralph Nader has estimated it to be over 600,000. Heaven only knows where Johnson sourced his numbers. Accurate reports indicate that over 30 children and infants have been murdered as a result of deliberate targeting by the terrorist Jews.

    @j2

    Great, thanks much for clarifying elaboration! If you sneak a peek at Wayne Coste's paper, you'll find he, too, has identified a massive gap between sources and uses of energy. In that part, he's absolutely right, but then he doesn't "take it underground" to assess the same thing from a seismic point of view. The reason he skips the latter is that his explosives (or thermite rather) is rigged up in the towers, leaving no room for below-ground explosions. The trouble there, of course, is that his model cannot account for the seismic shocks. Because they contradict his model, he makes it easy on himself by simply leaving them out.

    Why do I point to Mr Coste? To again encourage you to sit with the seismic charts for a bit. I don't expertise in the field is required, as one can read up on what's needed and then also use common sense and logic to disentangle the charts. The official interpretation of the charts isn't worth much as the Lamont-Doherty seismologists could not possibly include any real understanding of how large buildings collapse into their findings. To them it's basically all quakes or quarry blasts, and that's their framework of interpretation. The situation is also complicated by LDEO appointing Dr Kim as a "point person" (read: gatekeeper) for all inquiries about 9/11 seismics. He is the Ruth Paine of 9/11, who will only talk to people who have pledged allegiance to the official story. If you forgive the pun.

    On your idea about cutting the core steel all the way down in the basement, I very much doubt that would work. The reason Mr Coste feels he must rig the entire tower and remote detonate floor-by-floor, is precisely that energy gap, which would otherwise cause the collapse to stop.

    An alternative idea to yours might be to apply to the Twin Towers the same "quick-and-dirty" demolition model that I proposed for Building 7. That is to say, cut the vertical steel straight across about one-quarter up the length of the building, then let gravity take care of the rest. This will provide about the right gravitational force for the upper part to fully crush the stumps below the cutting level, leaving no stub standing. When pointing to this simple scheme, I also noted that cutting any lower than that would likely cause the upper part of the building to topple over, whilst cutting any higher than that would make the upper part too small to fully crush the stump, which would leave a stub standing at the bottom. These are obviously rough numbers, but you get the idea.

    Point is, you'll need to cut much higher than basement level to get the building down. Cutting down at basement level will basically do no good. In addition to that, the seismics are not going to pan out, not even if you cut one-quarter up the length of the towers. Dropping the towers in this fashion would basically create a seismic shock proportionally stronger to each tower's potential energy relative to the potential energy of Building 7. This ratio would sit somewhere north of 6 but no higher than 8. So the seismic shocks would be perhaps 6-8x stronger in terms of energy, but when you translate that to Richter scale values, you'll need to take the log, so will end up 0.8-0.9 points higher than the Building 7 shock. As Building 7 came in at a measly ML 0.6, we're talking ML 1.4-1.5 for the towers based on a comparable way of dropping the buildings. That's a far cry from the ML 2.1-2.3 that registered for the towers. So you can see the problem right there.

    I'd still very much like to encourage you to set aside time to acquaint yourself with the seismics, and then parse them. Yours is one opinion I would very much like to hear. That cannot be said for many if not most of the other commentators here, for reasons I'm sure you can appreciate. All in good time, though, as I think the third instalment of Marshall's series will be the right place to sink one's teeth into this. We're close enough, I sense, for productive dialogue between us. So I would welcome that.

    I have one argument, based on the first and the second on this list.

    A WTC tower was about 500,000,000 kg and as the height was some 460 m, we can assume that in collapse mass fell c. 200 m. This means that the potential energy of this tower was E=mgh = 9.81*5*10^8*2*10^2 J =9.81*10^11 J.

    In TNT it is 235-240 kg of TNT, that is 0.235-0.24 kTNT.

    If there had been an explosion of c. 0.3 kTNT, then it would be roughly equal (a bit larger) than the potential energy of the building.

    According to the seismic data, energy that caused the collapse signal was released over 5-6 seconds. That must have come from the potential energy because the potential energy was released over some 10 seconds when stuff fell out of the building and some 5-6 seconds this energy was so strong that it gave the seismic signal (which does not stop to 5-6 seconds, it continues as weaker when the building was almost collapsed).

    Notice that there is no starting peak in the seismic data. There is this 5-6 seconds long signal. This is the key.

    Had there been an explosion of 0.3 kTNT, it would have given a peak to the signal to the beginning. This peak would come from energy that is a bit larger than all energy released from potential energy. This peak would be very clearly visible in the seismic signal as at least three times higher peak than the rest of the 5-6 second signal.

    There was no such peak. This means, there was no nuke of the size 0.3 kTNT. You may only have a nuke that is some ten times smaller, so that it does not show clearly in the seismic signal.

    To fact-checker:

    Let's continue with this basement explosive problem. In 1993 Yusuf, a known bomb builder, made a urane nitrate bomb corresponding to c. 500 kg of TNT. It was placed to a parking lot under WTC, exploded and did not cause any significant damage to the building. The explosion was not seen in seismic data even from 16 km away. A failed attempt, but what made Yousef think that 500 kg of TNT would suffice if Taylor thinks it should be 100 kTNT?

    I think Yousef had heard that the building had a demolition plan (like Iris said) where explosives of 500 kg TNT in the basement cause the building to collapse. This could be reasonable. I personally think that 1000 kg of TNT placed to correct spots brings down most buildings. But Yousef maybe did not know where this explosive was supposed to be put, or he knew but his co-workers did not care to carry 500 kg to the correct spot, or could not because the doors were locked. So it failed but was not at all a stupid attack with too little explosives.

    So, use 1000 kg of TNT, 500 kg would probably suffice. No seismic data will be seen and the building comes down with a gravitational collapse when the central core is lowered by some meters. That this is a design feature of the building, the original demolition plan that Yousef might have obtained in some way or at least heard of.

    , @Fact Checker
    @j2

    Alright, let's see now. The best estimates we've got of mass and potential energy come from Gregory Urich's paper. According to Urich, the mass of each tower came in at about 300,000 tons and the potential energy, at about 500 GJ. This potential energy is roughly equivalent to 120 tons of TNT.

    https://www.journalof911studies.com/volume/200703/GUrich/MassAndPeWtc.pdf#page=23

    Equipped with these estimates, you can now redo your calculations using better figures. As you can readily see, 300 tons of TNT would represent the equivalent of about two-and-a-half towers' worth of potential energy. Only a fraction of that would however shake the bedrock. The proportion is hard to tell but I'd put it at one-tenth or so, perhaps a little higher.

    You are still stuck in your reading of the seismic charts through certain glasses. I would again advise you to reconsider and to take off those glasses. The statement that "there is this 5-6 seconds long signal" is highly dubious. The duration of the signal depends, of course, on where you draw the line between signal and noise. Even with a very high barrier, you'll end up with a longer signal than 5-6 seconds, and with a reasonably set bar, the signal is more like 20 seconds up at the PAL station.

    The absence of a starting peak at the reading station doesn't imply there is no starting peak at the origin. I've already made this point but it bears repeating, certainly as it apparently didn't register. Semi-open pit detonations are an entirely different beast than earthquakes or deep underground explosions such as nuclear tests. You cannot just take the earthquake schematic off the shelf and apply it to these events we're talking about. That would amount to misapplication. If you look at the Kim et al paper, they served this up on the last page. The North Tower collapse chart sure doesn't look anything like the earthquake chart below. But this is misleading, a comparison of apples to pears. Or even oranges, for our stateside readers.

    If you take a look at the previous page in the same paper, you'll see how the two stations located right on the Hudson River – Pallisades (PAL) and Mount Airy (MANY) – display certain common peculiarities. These are more obvious at MANY than at PAL, but when you look at the PAL chart in this context, you'll realise the signal is not only increasingly distributed but also bifurcates. By the time it gets to MANY, we've got two "humps" of activity. This shows how seismic waves travel in a somewhat different manner along rivers than across ordinary dry land. The other stations do not display these peculiarities, but have single-hump charts.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20240503035027/https://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/LCSN/Eq/20010911_WTC/WTC_LDEO_KIM.pdf#page=8

    Clearly the waves travel at slightly different speeds on either side of the Hudson, and the general transmission speeds are much lower (about 2 km/s) than what is ordinarily thought to apply to S-waves let alone P-waves. What this suggests to me is we're dealing primarily with surface waves (L and R) here, not with deeper earthquake-type waves. So those glasses simply need to come off in order to properly see what's going on in these charts.

    If you look at the one "simple" event we've got in the five WTC charts, namely the South Tower impact chart, you'll see that this, too, is symmetrically distributed. We know this is a plane hitting the tower, which is a well-defined "shock". Even so, by the time it reaches PAL, there is no apparent shock frontier on it, but only a symmetrically distributed hump lasting about 3-4 seconds.

    https://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/docs/wtc2impact.jpg

    This chart tells us something about the conditions for propagation from origin to station, and it also tells us that the vertical steel in the buildings worked like a "steel radio" or "tuning fork" transmitting shocks from way up in the buildings down to bedrock and then on to PAL. This, too, is a very important finding as it shows that as long as the "steel radio" is connected to bedrock, the ruckus caused by collapsing buildings will be transmitted down into bedrock and then onto PAL.

    When you apply this to the Twin Towers collapses – and to Building 7, too, for that matter – you'll find there is no such thing as a "5-6 second signal" for the towers. There's a signal of about that duration, or slightly longer, for Building 7 coming down. For the towers, the duration is much longer than that. Video footage shows that the collapses took up towards 20 seconds for the South Tower, and 23-24 seconds for the North Tower. For the most part, the "steel radio" was turned on during the collapses, which means the signals should register at PAL. As the surely did, if you set the signal-to-noise ratio at the appropriate level.

    I'll make one more point here and now. In the Kim & Baum paper, you'll find a "local explosion" in the big multistation chart on page 9. This is a quarry detonation, so is of particular interest for WTC comparison even though it is small potatoes by comparison. The detonation happens somewhere east of Yale (YLE) and also shows up in the Lakeside (LSCT) chart. So it's all local to Connecticut, yet says a lot about the transmission conditions in that general direction, which becomes relevant to the PAL and MANY stations as well.

    https://web.archive.org/web/20030320090510/http://www.mgs.md.gov/esic/publications/download/911pentagon.pdf#page=9

    What's peculiar here is the very low transmission speed, for one, and which amounts to a measly 1 km/s if even that. That's how slowly surface action propagates in this area. The other peculiarity is the bifurcation that shows at LSCT but not at YLE. The explosion apparently generates signals at different frequencies, which travel at slightly different speeds. When they're teased apart, one can readily see the more explosion-like concentrated hump to the left, and the other, more distributed low-frequency hump to the right.

    This quarry blast might seem like an irrelevant footnote, but I think not. It helps us understand not only the nature of the WTC blasts and how they can be expected to manifest themselves in seismic charts, but also the clearly reduced transmission speeds seen in the PAL-MANY direction compared to other inland directions. I think that adds an important layer to our understanding of the seismic activity that took place at the World Trade Center on 9/11. Mind you, this is a jigsaw puzzle where we try to fit the pieces together to the best of our ability, and that's precisely why I wanted to hear your take on these issues. As it stands right now, I find it hard to agree with your interpretation, but then we've only just got started. It's an iterative process, and I feel I can benefit from your observations even when I do not agree with them.

    I'll stop here for now. There is absolutely no rush with this, so don't feel pressed. Besides, Mr Marshall's advertised Part 3 isn't out yet, so there will be plenty of time to continue discussion in that comment section as well, when the time comes.

    Hello J2; thanks for your reply.

    The "No-Plane" theory does not contradict any of the physical manifestation that were recorded at the WTC. I deliberately use the "participle" recorded because, unlike a human testimony, a video or a photograph can undergo examination in a court of justice.


    But why the fireball and huge smoke came and grew large in seconds.
     
    Because the Twin Towers were rigged with nanothermite, a highly energetic explosive made even more reactive by its mixing at the nano-scale. Nanonthermite was used to simulate a huge explosion caused by a "plane" crashing. It is a military-grade explosive, available at the time only to the US and Israeli military, and of which traces were found in the WTC rubble.
    Once the explosion happened, the ensuing fire would have been sustained by the presence of more ordinary combustibles. A 30 minute combustion duration is not much.

    In addition, other explosives were planted in several areas of the Towers. Sometimes, they exploded before their respective "plane attack" because Mossad operatives got their synchronizing wrong.
    In the basement/ maintenance area of the North Tower, several witnesses reported explosions that preceded the plane crash. The entry lobby of the South Tower was the site of explosion before the "plane" hit. One can guess that the purpose of these secondary explosions was to stage the psy-op, to materialize the scenario that the plane attack was supposedly causing multiple structural failure culminating in a collapse, and hence justify the ineluctable controlled demolition that was coming, undertaken by another, third type of explosion: an underground nuclear detonation.

    This of course is silly talk.

    The US could invade and that invasion would thorough, fast and devastating. I am just not sure what the point would be.

    But currently the US has no will to invade. There's not even a moral rationale that makes sense any longer. The reality is Russia, and China now see the admin as a paper tiger in my view.

    Sadly the admin. has squandered so much promise with side show issues. But as long as the markets continue --

    The problem with any invasion is what to do in the aftermath - the occupation and the flood of jihadists and now reinforced alliances with Iraq, Yemen, etc.

    I still maintain that had we maintained a sensible policy in Eastern Europe supported Ukraine (and we should) the road ahead would be so much smoother.

    Not so. First, there has to be a staging area along with logistical support. Then, the troops need a way to get to where they are going. Once there the support angle comes into play. Think of Desert Storm. It took almost six months to stage before the attack. Half a million troops were required, along with heavy mobile artillery and up-close round the clock air attacks.

    What Iran has done is to move the US far away from any reasonable staging location. If the US attempted to mass troops for a ground invasion (in Desert Storm the US used KSA), Iran would immediately begin attacking those forces. It is why the US uses stand off attacks from hundreds of miles away in its current War for Miriam’s Dollars. Because Iran has made any close-up attacks impossible.

    There is really no conceivable way the US could stage a successful ground attack on Iran. At least one that would not cost many thousands of American deaths.

    Exactly correct. I have made several trips to the ME, on DoD chartered vessels hauling materiel, including tanks and everything else. My first trip was to Dubai in 1991. These ships ranged from large Roll On-Roll Off of the Bob Hope classs to U. S. Naval research vessels of the Henson Class. I also worded on large RoRo in Houston, TX that was a standby sealift vessel, for the Military Sea Lift Command. There were other chartered vessels [private under charter to DoD], including tankers which refueled Navy warships at sea.

    Projecting expeditionary force halfway around the world, involves an enormous amount of sea lift cargo. From spare parts, to food, medicine, materiel*

    * arms, ammunition, and equipment in general.

    We do not have the sea lift capacity, nor the wartime economy, nor the money, nor the head count of military personnel, nor the equipment [50% or less of F-35 jets are available at any given time]. Our equipment is dated, out of date, and there are not only extreme shortfalls of armaments, but also spare parts AND the personnel to work on equipment.

    In short, we cannot field a force that has any chance at success in a ground invasion. Time is on Iran’s side. Iran will be endlessly supplied by Russian, China, and North Korea. Iran is another Afghanistan. Instead of 20 years, the conflict would be over in 2 weeks.

    This whole fantasy will end when Iran hits an aircraft carrier, setting it afire and inert.

Anyhow he was sitting with actor Burt Reynolds at a bar (Marciano didn’t drink) and a drunk guy told him he could beat the hell out Marciano.

For his warts as a skinflint, cheater on his wife and not a good father, Marciano was classy in other ways.

    That’s an attractive idea. I’m not sure why. Is it true? What is a nerd? Was Stalin a nerd? ‘Nerd’ is a pretty amorphous category, isn’t it? With both an intellectual and a physical side to it.

    I was a sliderule whiz and a member of the ‘Rocket Club’ in high school. That was the post-Sputnik era. Every American high school had a rocket club in those days. “Catch up with the Russkies!” That was the mantra. Was I a nerd?

    Didn’t Plato suggest that the best form of government was rule by a ‘philosopher king’? That’s pretty nerdish, isn’t it? Was Marcus Aurelius such a ruler? Or Frederick the Great?

    My family was familiar with the nerd category. One of my younger brother’s classmates, the son of a coworker of my dad, was our model. I remember him well. His usually vacant facial expression suggested that he was never quite in touch with what was going on around him.

    One day in class he did an arithmetical calculation at the blackboard. When the teacher pointed out that he was off by several thousand he responded, “I seem to have made a slight miscalculation.”

    How we laughed! Not maliciously, but as people laughed at Art Linkletter’s Kids-Say-the-Darndest-Things shows. I was not spared. My mother never stopped laughing at me once saying to her, when I was seven or eight, “You must be firm with your children.”

    Stalin was a small man with a crippled arm, I wouldn’t call him a nerd but he was physically weak on the outside and cruel on the inside. Ever take a look at a lot of those kike and Italian big shot mob bosses, seems like most are 5 foot nothing. Look at that little homicidal Sammy The Bull Gravano, he was like 5’4” tall, Meyer Lansky was what 5’4” 136 lbs, Philadelphia mob boss Little Nicky Scarfo about 5’2”-5’3”, Paul Castellano allegedly gunned down by Gravano and Gotti was one of the rare crime bosses over 6’ tall. Of course big men can be cruel as well but while big most of the large vicious creeps are weak inside like Ed Kemper a big for nothing 6’9” 300 lb guy with mommy issues who preyed on tiny women. I know some inculcated freak wants me to bring up Hitler but Hitler was 5’9” which was normal height for a man back then and IF Hitler was sadistic as (((they))) claim him to be that is uber rare for an animal lover to be cruel. Cue: Cruel To Be Kind by Nick Lowe


    From what I’ve observed the strong are always more merciful than the weak, and surprisingly lots of women can be just as vicious and unfeeling as men. The old saying the world would be a better place if women were in charge is horseshit, it probably would be even more fucked up. It was women who raised these sick bastards after all.

Most adult men still into things like that would be “partying “ with 25-35 year old women, not girls. Now we know why Gates bought all that farm land in Georgia , 270,000 acres.

She chose her career over being Mrs. Trump. She might have thought the 6’3” Don ( Don wasn’t a bad looking dude back in the day ) was a drip as well, you see him dancing and acting as if he never saw a woman at Epstein’s pedophile party on that clip that has made the rounds.

    Iris, the problem with the no-planes theory is not that the building burned for 30 min or longer. The problem is that it started burning too fast.

    What caught fire and produced a huge fireball and huge smoke in one second? Airplane kerosine can do it: it spreads to the air in the explosion when the plane hits the building, catches fire and burns very fast. What can catch fire and burn so fast if there was no plane?

    There was much combustible material to burn for a long time. The building could have burned for days had it not collapsed. But why the fireball and huge smoke came and grew large in seconds.

    Office material does not burn so fast. It starts small and then the fire grows, but it takes time. We can see it e.g. when Ukraine attacks at Russian Windberries with drones. The warehouse is full of very inflammable Chinese plastic products and when the burn, they produce really huge smoke, also the fires are huge. But it does not start in seconds, it takes quite much time before the warehouse burns with large fires and huge smoke. The drone has explosives and they set fire to the products in the warehouse, but despite this, the material does not create a fireball and huge smoke in seconds.

    What the no-planes theory claims is that there were explosives in the building, and naturally there was lots of combustible material in the building. Explosives detonate. This means a very fast chemical reaction. It is much faster than burning. Fuel in air burns. Explosives detonate. (If you want fuel to detonate, mix nitrate to it to give oxygen, so you get a fertilizer bomb, but in air fuel burns, it does not detonate)

    Fuel in air burns and burning is a slower process than detonation. This is why we can tell that in the fireball that WTC videos show, something is burning. It burns too long for it to be a detonation from explosives. Explosives give a very short flash only. The fireball is there for many seconds, it is burning.

    The question is: what is burning there? It is not explosives, they detonate and create a very short flash, it is not office material and wood, that cannot catch fire so fast and make the fireball and smoke so fast.

    There was the fireball and huge smoke, they came in seconds. That means, there was fuel, lots of it. There were no fuel tanks in the floors where the fireball came from. That means, this was fuel that came to the building in the crash. It was airplane fuel, so there were the planes.

    Hello J2; thanks for your reply.

    The “No-Plane” theory does not contradict any of the physical manifestation that were recorded at the WTC. I deliberately use the “participle” recorded because, unlike a human testimony, a video or a photograph can undergo examination in a court of justice.

    But why the fireball and huge smoke came and grew large in seconds.

    Because the Twin Towers were rigged with nanothermite, a highly energetic explosive made even more reactive by its mixing at the nano-scale. Nanonthermite was used to simulate a huge explosion caused by a “plane” crashing. It is a military-grade explosive, available at the time only to the US and Israeli military, and of which traces were found in the WTC rubble.
    Once the explosion happened, the ensuing fire would have been sustained by the presence of more ordinary combustibles. A 30 minute combustion duration is not much.

    In addition, other explosives were planted in several areas of the Towers. Sometimes, they exploded before their respective “plane attack” because Mossad operatives got their synchronizing wrong.
    In the basement/ maintenance area of the North Tower, several witnesses reported explosions that preceded the plane crash. The entry lobby of the South Tower was the site of explosion before the “plane” hit. One can guess that the purpose of these secondary explosions was to stage the psy-op, to materialize the scenario that the plane attack was supposedly causing multiple structural failure culminating in a collapse, and hence justify the ineluctable controlled demolition that was coming, undertaken by another, third type of explosion: an underground nuclear detonation.

    Not so. First, there has to be a staging area along with logistical support. Then, the troops need a way to get to where they are going. Once there the support angle comes into play. Think of Desert Storm. It took almost six months to stage before the attack. Half a million troops were required, along with heavy mobile artillery and up-close round the clock air attacks.

    What Iran has done is to move the US far away from any reasonable staging location. If the US attempted to mass troops for a ground invasion (in Desert Storm the US used KSA), Iran would immediately begin attacking those forces. It is why the US uses stand off attacks from hundreds of miles away in its current War for Miriam's Dollars. Because Iran has made any close-up attacks impossible.

    There is really no conceivable way the US could stage a successful ground attack on Iran. At least one that would not cost many thousands of American deaths.

  • @Dr. Green
    The Ustasha regime’s genocidal madness in the Independent State of Croatia (NDH), an act of pure, unadulterated Croat extremism that ranks among the darkest stains on European history. Far from a mere “nationalist uprising,” the Ustasha was a rabid, fascist cult of violence, led by the maniacal Ante Pavelić and his fanatical followers, who viewed the Serb people as aliens that must be exterminated or destroyed. From the very moment German and Italian troops handed them the state in April 1941, the Croats unleashed a campaign of racial terror that was not sporadic but systematic policy, guided by the infamous “thirds” doctrine: one-third of the Serbs to be killed outright, one-third to be expelled, and one-third forcibly converted to Catholicism. This plan was executed with chilling precision and sadistic delight.
    Entire villages were torched, Christian Orthodox churches burned to the ground, and priests publicly castrated and burned alive.

    The regime’s crowning achievement of depravity, however, was the Jasenovac concentration-camp complex, which became the largest killing site in Europe after Auschwitz. Between 83,000 and 100,000 human beings perished there. Children were herded into specially designated “children’s barracks” and hacked or beaten to death (yes, even children); survivors endured deliberate starvation, disease, and sadistic medical experiments. Serb men, women, and the elderly were worked to exhaustion, their bodies broken by forced labour, while the Croat guards amused themselves by selecting fresh victims for daily slaughter.

    The Croats did not merely kill Serbs; they subjected them to a catalogue of unimaginable horrors. The entire operation was conducted with the full complicity and encouragement of the German and Italian occupying powers, who provided weapons, ammunition, and political cover to the Ustasha murderers. By the war’s end, the Croats had succeeded in murdering an estimated 300,000 to 350,000 Serbs. This was not the act of a few rogue soldiers; it was the official policy of an entire nation that had chosen to become the most vicious collaborators in the Axis camp.

    The Ustasha regime’s crimes stand as a permanent indictment of Croat nationalism run amok. They reveal a people who, far from being victims of history, actively chose to become the most brutal executioners of their neighbours. These atrocities cannnot be forgotten. They must be remembered not as obscure footnotes but as a cautionary tale of what happens when a nation is intoxicated by fascist ideology and ethnic hatred. It is hard to stomach the full horror of the Croats’ actions against the Serbs.

    The Croats did not merely kill Serbs; they subjected them to a catalogue of unimaginable horrors.

    Thank you Dr. Green, for chiming in – appreciated. Two comments – Jasenovac was not a concentration camp, but an extermination camp – Croats did not feed prisoners, since they would be brought in to be murdered as soon as possible. Also, the numbers you quoted are inaccurate – the number of Serbs slaughtered is much larger. More on that follows below.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Re total victims count estimate: The estimate from the German SS officers, stationed in Nazi Croatia (NDH) during WW2, brings the total number of slaughtered Serbs to close to 2,000,000 (2 million). It’s the number based on their reports sent to Berlin and probably the most accurate we have.

    Re Jasenovac: Just Jasenovac estimate according to the book ‘Auschwitz of the Balkans’ by Gideon Greif [2] is at least 1.4 million murdered Serb civilians! Even that number is not final, as many Serbs were thrown into the Sava River after their murder, as reported by the author, so their remains could not be accounted for in mass graves. BTW, extermination camp Jasenovac (it was not a concentration camp) was five times bigger than Auschwitz, and not the only extermination camp in Nazi Croatia, but just the biggest one. So the number mentioned does not include other extermination camps and hundreds of other locations where Serbs were slaughtered during WW2.

    Re 700k Serbs slaughtered reported by some authors [1]: After WW2, communists (non-Serb Tito, Croats, and Slovenians that ruled Yugoslavia) had to allow some forensics work only at the dismantled Jasenovac extermination camp to estimate the number killed by Croats. As the forensics work progressed and death estimates reached 700k Serbs murdered just there at Jasenovac, communists stopped all forensics work, which was still in progress with no end in sight, and rolled back the number to 70k. So, again, 700k was not final by any means and did not include victims killed in hundreds of locations outside Jasenovac. In other words, communists stopped it as damage control. So, those authors simply did not know that the forensic work was abruptly halted by the communists.

    Just to give you some sense of proportion: 70k Serb civilians were shipped to Jasenovac in just one WW2 operation around Kozara Region. This number was mentioned by Austrian Chancellor Kurt Waldheim, after his Nazi past was discovered and revealed to the world by one Serbian investigative reporter (Danko Vasović). His admission upset Vatican and Yugoslav communists so much, as it indirectly challenged their fake official 70k number for the entire WW2, since the 70k reported by Kurt was just one operation out of many, that they tried to assassinate Danko.

    Different factions of Jews have different conceptions of what is "good for the Jews".

    On the left, the Jewish factions include:
    Liberal Zionists (Chuck Schumer, Antony Blinken, David Pakman)
    Anti-Zionist Establishment Democrats (Sam Seder)
    Anti-Zionist Dissident Left (Max Blumenthal)

    On the right, the Jewish factions include:
    Ultra-Zionist Liberals (Trump and all the Jewish big donors)
    Alt-Light (Stephen Miller, Jonathan Keeperman)

    There is also a non-Jewish faction on the right, the Dissident Right, aka Alt-Right, aka Paleoconservatives. A patriotic faction of the intelligence community & Little Tech/Paypal Mafia - Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, (((David Sacks))), JD Vance, Tucker Carlson, and Joe Kent - seems to be tentatively aligning with the Dissident Right, which could be very good news.

    Compromises between the Big Donors on the one hand and the Alt-Light on the other are the key to understanding the policy of the Trump administration.

    The Alt-Light represents the mood of the base, the people who supported Trump in 2015-2016 when the entire establishment was against him.

    They want to deport all the illegal immigrants and also restrict legal immigration. The only difference between the Alt-Light and the Dissident Right is the latter's America First foreign policy and willingness to criticize Jewish power.

    The big donors, on the other hand, are basically liberals who only support the Republicans because the Republicans support Israel.

    The big donors have no interest at all in controlling immigration. They directly benefit from the lower wages and higher housing prices which result from high immigration, but the regressive tax system enables them to force the middle class to pay for the government benefits which attract the immigrants. They also retain the traditional Jewish resentment against the pre-1965 immigration restrictions ("Remember the SS Saint Louis!"), and they want to keep America open for immigration from Israel, in case the Zionist project ends in failure and 7 million Jews need refuge.

    Trump's campaign promises were Alt-Light or even Dissident Right, but his real priorities align with the big donors.

    Under those circumstances, the Alt-Light struggles to get any policy traction within the Trump administration.

    If the big donors had their way, the only people who would be deported would be critics of Israel.

    Trump himself now claims that he only ever promised to deport those illegal immigrants who also happened to have committed other crimes in addition to illegally immigrating. This is completely contrary to the very detailed immigration platform written for him in 2015 by Jeff Sessions and Stephen Miller, but it seems that Trump was privately promising the big donors that only violent criminals would be deported.

    The compromise seems to be: instead of a moratorium on legal immigration, we will deport 300 Israel critical legal immigrants who are already here, and instead of deporting all the illegal immigrants, we will only deport criminals.

    This policy arouses maximum resistance from the left while doing very little to actually restrict immigration. Targeting critics of Israel roused the entire anti-genocide movement against ICE, and the illegals who are also violent criminals live mostly within Democrat controlled local jurisdictions, where violent confrontations are inevitable.

    What should the Dissident Right's response be?

    We should oppose the persecution of legal immigrants who criticize Israel. This policy achieves negligible immigration restriction while doing maximum damage to free speech.

    But we should support to the full the deportation of criminal illegals. ICE raids aren't the whole solution, but they are part of the solution, and we want ICE to be intact with good morale when Our Guy (whoever he is) becomes president in 2029.

    Here’s a big clue: the same people deploying ICE (ineffectually, as Anglin noted) keep refusing to point the police and justice apparatus at infiltrating, unmasking, dismantling antifa and other violent leftist groups.

    Unz is right to be suspicious of the new policing standard introduced by ICE.

    Nick Fuentes’s unreserved support for ICE’s strong-arm tactics strengthens the case that he’s been co-opted. At around that time, instead of answering Anglin’s objections, Fuentes smeared him, vaguely alluding to secret connections he knew about, but couldn’t divulge.

    But thank you for so saying. Much appreciated.

    Haym Salomon loaned money to James Madison, James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson, Edmund Randolph, and James Wilson. These loans were directly out of his own pocket to cover their everyday living costs so they didn't have to abandon their posts and go home. Technically, they were personal loans, the debt of which Salomon effectively gifted or chose not to enforce. As such, they were never legal liabilities of the United States federal government.

    Yet on conducting further research, it appears he did back government debt using his own personal signature and credit, guaranteeing that if the government failed to pay, he would. He also provided emergency war funding.

    However, the hundreds of thousands of dollars in government paper certificates and IOUs Salomon held became virtually worthless after the war due to hyperinflation. When he died in 1785, his estate held stacks of these depreciated government paper assets. Later claims by his family focused on asking Congress to redeem those notes at face value, but Congress treated them like all other war-era paper debt, which had collapsed in value. As such, the issue of non-repayment came down to currency devaluation rather than an unpaid cash contract.

    As such, I don't see any merit to the theory that Salomon was some kind of proxy for massive, unpayable debt to Israel.

    Do you have any empathy for the Jews Hitler forced to move to Palestine under the Transfer Agreement? What should they have done if not go there? What should they do today?
     
    I have empathy for anyone who's compelled to flee their home through no fault of their own, but you should know that their immigration to Palestine was merely adding fuel to the fire, particularly given the injustices visited upon indigenous Palestinians for over half a century beforehand. I don't particularly care to entertain counterfactual ideas about what might have been best, but in retrospect, it obviously wasn't a good idea -- hindsight being 20/20 and all.

    If Jews want to redeem themselves, they should begin by returning to an ontology that conceives of God as The One responsible for the existence and goodness reflected in all humankind, not just their own. It's okay for any religious adherent to affirm the superiority of his faith, so long as this affirmation does not also impinge upon baseline, inviolable rights of others not subscribing to it. This is where most of today's Jews have gone astray. Begin there, and the rest will follow.

    As for Europe, I'm informed of it simply through what I read, watch, and listen to. (Thanks for the Ludvig Van, BTW. 🕶️)

    I think the agony and travail in Palestine and throughout the Middle East is Hitler’s revenge and last laugh since it very much emanates from his policies.

    Replies: @Jonas E. Alexis, @Michael Korn

    “Darwin implies one objectively and universally binding principle: ‘Thou shalt evolve,’ or, at the very least, ‘Thou shalt not interfere with evolution.’”

    Perhaps we have some common ground here. If the statement is true, it effectively undermines those who criticize “Jewish political and intellectual movements” on evolutionary grounds. If those movements are “evolving,” then, under that logic, one should not interfere with that evolutionary process. To condemn such movements would therefore amount to a form of interference—and, by the same reasoning, a contradiction.

    MacDonald’s use of terms such as “group evolutionary strategy” does not address the fundamental question. The deeper issue is what happens when a system denies objective morality or practical reason. Such a system will either reproduce moral principles in some form or eventually collapse under its own philosophical contradictions.

    For example, consider Michael Ruse’s article, “God Is Dead. Long Live Morality.” https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/belief/2010/mar/15/morality-evolution-philosophy

    “In the quote you offered previously, concerning the human practice of caring for the weak (imbeciles, etc.) Darwin condemned such practice as ‘injurious to the race of man,’ because it enabled ‘weak members of civilised societies [to] propagate their kind.’ Is this not a moral judgment?”

    It is a moral judgment, but not an objectively binding one. Rather, it is a subjective judgment that virtually anyone can invoke for political purposes. In Kantian terms, for a moral principle to be objectively binding, it must be capable of being universalized. For example, torturing or raping children is universally wrong, even though some individuals may claim that such acts are permissible.

    “To oppose deception, one needn’t claim that it’s ‘objectively wrong.’”

    Yes, it must be objectively wrong; otherwise, it is merely a matter of subjective opinion, and your judgment is no more valid than that of someone who reaches the opposite conclusion. If there is no objective moral standard, on what basis can you condemn figures such as Trotsky or Benjamin Netanyahu?

    “That would justify his opposition on evolutionary grounds, right?”

    No, evolution does not provide a mechanism that says an idea is deceptive and is therefore wrong and should not be practiced. Evolution asks a fundamentally different question: Is the behavior advantageous to the survival of the group? If deception has contributed to the survival of “Jewish political and intellectual movements” for centuries, on what evolutionary grounds can you condemn it? I have already given you Darwin’s own words on this point.

    “The only philosophical basis I can think of, on which a Darwinist can write books attempting to persuade other people to regard such conduct as wrong, is if he is proselytizing people to his cause…”

    Again, the Darwinist must assume that his own position is correct and that the person he is criticizing is wrong. But the moment you invoke categories such as “right” and “wrong,” you have entered the realm of morality. And once you make moral judgments, you face the question of whether those judgments are objectively binding.

    This is where the Darwinian paradigm faces a fundamental philosophical problem. If morality is merely the product of evolutionary pressures, rather than an objective standard, then it becomes difficult to explain on what basis one can condemn another person’s beliefs or behavior as genuinely wrong. The system therefore risks becoming metaphysically incoherent: it relies on moral judgments while denying the objective moral foundation that would make those judgments binding.

    “Even though he decried human practices which interfered with the evolutionary process?”

    Just because he condemned certain human practices does not mean that he solved the underlying philosophical problem. In fact, his position made the problem even more incoherent.

    “Why is that not acceptable to you? It gives a rationale for his condemnation which is entirely in keeping with evolutionary theory.”

    Read the entire debate. It’s quite long.

    “I don’t see it as a problem at all. From an evolutionary perspective, it is not MacDonald’s responsibility to consider the interests of anyone but himself.”

    You don’t see it as a problem? Think a little more deeply about it, my man.

    “Their wiles are condemnable, not in any traditional moral sense, but because they interfere with my evolutionary interests and those of my group.”

    You are just making my point: it is survival of the fittest, which MacDonald himself acknowledged. If that is the case, then “Jewish political and intellectual movements” have been doing very well by that standard. They have survived and, by that evolutionary measure, succeeded. So on what basis can you condemn them?

    “I don’t believe there’s any reason for Jews to abandon their political and intellectual movements.”

    Honestly, are you serious? Are you saying there is no reason to condemn Netanyahu’s treatment of the Palestinians, Freud’s stated ambition to bring “the plague” to the West, or Trotsky’s participation in one of the bloodiest revolutionary movements in history? If you truly believe there is no moral basis for condemning such actions, then why have we spent so much time discussing these issues?

    “I believe it’s cyclical. MacDonald describes the process by which Jewish culture imprints itself onto the group’s genome, which passes on traits and characteristics amenable to said culture, which further imprints on the genome. . . etc., etc., etc.”

    Can you flesh out what you mean by “cyclical”? Do you mean genetic or not? Yes, this discussion has gone on for a while, but I have already written extensively about the problems with treating behavior as genetic. Again, see my article on Wilhelm Marr, and perhaps you can comment on it.

    In any case, I need to wrap things up here, since I have other commitments. Again, I appreciate the exchange.

    Perhaps we have some common ground here.
     
    Quite a bit, actually.

    If the statement [i.e., Darwin implies one objectively and universally binding principle: ‘Thou shalt evolve,’ or, at the very least, ‘Thou shalt not interfere with evolution.] is true, it effectively undermines those who criticize “Jewish political and intellectual movements” on evolutionary grounds. If those movements are “evolving,” then, under that logic, one should not interfere with that evolutionary process.
     
    Except, of course to further the evolution of his group against competing groups, which is all I've been saying.

    “In the quote you offered previously, concerning the human practice of caring for the weak (imbeciles, etc.) Darwin condemned such practice as ‘injurious to the race of man,’ because it enabled ‘weak members of civilised societies [to] propagate their kind.’ Is this not a moral judgment?”

    It is a moral judgment, but not an objectively binding one. Rather, it is a subjective judgment that virtually anyone can invoke for political purposes. In Kantian terms, for a moral principle to be objectively binding, it must be capable of being universalized.
     

     
    Not sure why Kant's definition should be binding here, but I'll go with it: What about "Though shalt not interfere with evolution" cannot be universalized? Sure, it's universalization will pit groups, each of which are faithfully following it, against each other, but that doesn't disqualify it as a universal moral principle.

    To condemn such movements would therefore amount to a form of interference—and, by the same reasoning, a contradiction.
     
    Throughout your response, it seems you are conflating "oppose" with "condemn" with "treat as morally wrong".

    From an evolutionary standpoint, the Jews' approach is laudable. . . it works. Traditional morals (if any) aside, their methods are successful.

    That doesn't mean an individual or group negatively affected by them can't oppose them; in fact, from an evolutionary standpoint, it makes all the sense in the world to oppose them.

    Further, if, as part of a group's opposition to Jewish methods, the opposing group condemns those methods as detrimental to its interests, that's perfectly consistent. There's no moral element to this, with the exception of Darwin's own universal, objectively-binding one, prohibiting interference with evolution, of course. So, no traditionally moral element.


    “I don’t believe there’s any reason for Jews to abandon their political and intellectual movements.”

    Honestly, are you serious? Are you saying there is no reason to condemn Netanyahu’s treatment of the Palestinians, Freud’s stated ambition to bring “the plague” to the West, or Trotsky’s participation in one of the bloodiest revolutionary movements in history?
     

     
    I didn't say I don't condemn those actions; I said there's no reason for the Jews to abandon them. Big difference.

    Further, I can consistently condemn those actions, not from a traditionally moral standpoint, but from an evolutionary standpoint: I condemn those actions, because they are detrimental to my group.


    If you truly believe there is no moral basis for condemning such actions, then why have we spent so much time discussing these issues?
     
    There is no traditionally moral basis, but there is a moral basis derived from Darwin's prohibition of interference with evolution, of course.

    I'm having trouble understanding how you can ask that question, my man.


    Can you flesh out what you mean by “cyclical”? Do you mean genetic or not?
     
    I thought I already had. Yes it's genetic, because genetic tendencies foster Jewish behavior of hostility to the "other". It is cyclical because said hostility drives the Jewish societal mechanisms, described by MacDonald, mechanisms to isolate the Jewish community, keep the outsider at bay, and most importantly, further foster the aforementioned Jewish genetic tendencies, increasing their depth and breadth throughout the Jewish group genome.


    In summary, I have shown a universal moral principle within Darwin's theory, one that Darwin himself put forth. I have also shown that, by that single moral principle, there is no contradiction in MacDonald's "condemnation"of or "opposition" to Jewish group evolutionary strategy, as long as said condemnation/opposition is based on the threat the Jewish strategy holds for the interests of his group.

    this is all part of the purposeful destruction of the real economy, especially small businesses, which had once employed more than half of the workforce, before their covid 19 bioweapon attack*, and have been decimated x4 in the last 10 years. that's more than 20% of jobs destroyed along with the lifes works and fortunes, spent building these businesses. add to this the intentional of destruction of as many remaining jobs, through government subsidized a.i. gimmickry and you can begin to see why they are driving the economy off a cliff.

    by creating the next great depression, they will mask the implosion and meltdown of their phony bullshit ponzinomic charade of an economy. they will then loot the whole country and as much of the world as they can get their tentacles wrapped around. this is why they have co-opted cryptocurrency, if it wasn't always just another tulip based economy to begin with. this will allow them to use their invisible emperor's new coin, based on nothing but their mumbo jumbo, to buy up hard assets all over the world.

    The shoot-down (interception) success rate of a Patriot missile system typically ranges from 90% to 95% against modern tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and aircraft when operated with advanced configurations like the PAC-3 variant.


    Professor Ted Postol of MIT, one of the world’s leading experts on missiles and missile defense, has said ON THE RECORD (link to video) that “video evidence shows clearly and unamiguously that the Patriot [PAC-3] intercept rate now is maybe 2% or 3% [emphasis mine]”.
     
    Prof Post is an out of date 80 year old hack. He may even be an out of date SENILE 80 year old hack.

    More evidence of Patriot failure comes from Iran’s near total obliteration of the US THAAD radar systems in West Asia in the first few days of the war (link). The AN/TPY-2 radars cost almost half a billion dollars each. You would think that these valuable and expensive systems would be heavily defended, and they likely were — but the Iranians still destroyed them. This demonstrates just how ineffective the US missile defenses were.
     
    THAAD is not designed to intercept low flying drones. Try again!!!

    You and McNally the “Irishman” can take turns playing Dumb and Dumber. In the Gulag Archipelago if you had bothered to read the three volumes, there was no hint that Solzhenitsyn was trying to finger the Jews. The notorious one page photograph of the Jews who ran the Volga Canal was in fact verified by Yoram Sheftel the Israeli court appointed lawyer for Ivan Demjanjuk, Yoram had in fact travelled there to find evidence to exonerate his client. Those volumes came out in translation in the 70s, they became generally available in Singapore in 1978/80 where I lived . Had there been anything specific about der Juden’s role in Bolshevism I would have picked it up, since I was an 110% supporter of Israel at that time.

    I surmise that like me, Solzhenitsyn became Jew-wise over the years.

Recently, it also served as a privileged port of call for...
  • The Ustasha regime’s genocidal madness in the Independent State of Croatia (NDH), an act of pure, unadulterated Croat extremism that ranks among the darkest stains on European history. Far from a mere “nationalist uprising,” the Ustasha was a rabid, fascist cult of violence, led by the maniacal Ante Pavelić and his fanatical followers, who viewed the Serb people as aliens that must be exterminated or destroyed. From the very moment German and Italian troops handed them the state in April 1941, the Croats unleashed a campaign of racial terror that was not sporadic but systematic policy, guided by the infamous “thirds” doctrine: one-third of the Serbs to be killed outright, one-third to be expelled, and one-third forcibly converted to Catholicism. This plan was executed with chilling precision and sadistic delight.
    Entire villages were torched, Christian Orthodox churches burned to the ground, and priests publicly castrated and burned alive.

    The regime’s crowning achievement of depravity, however, was the Jasenovac concentration-camp complex, which became the largest killing site in Europe after Auschwitz. Between 83,000 and 100,000 human beings perished there. Children were herded into specially designated “children’s barracks” and hacked or beaten to death (yes, even children); survivors endured deliberate starvation, disease, and sadistic medical experiments. Serb men, women, and the elderly were worked to exhaustion, their bodies broken by forced labour, while the Croat guards amused themselves by selecting fresh victims for daily slaughter.

    The Croats did not merely kill Serbs; they subjected them to a catalogue of unimaginable horrors. The entire operation was conducted with the full complicity and encouragement of the German and Italian occupying powers, who provided weapons, ammunition, and political cover to the Ustasha murderers. By the war’s end, the Croats had succeeded in murdering an estimated 300,000 to 350,000 Serbs. This was not the act of a few rogue soldiers; it was the official policy of an entire nation that had chosen to become the most vicious collaborators in the Axis camp.

    The Ustasha regime’s crimes stand as a permanent indictment of Croat nationalism run amok. They reveal a people who, far from being victims of history, actively chose to become the most brutal executioners of their neighbours. These atrocities cannnot be forgotten. They must be remembered not as obscure footnotes but as a cautionary tale of what happens when a nation is intoxicated by fascist ideology and ethnic hatred. It is hard to stomach the full horror of the Croats’ actions against the Serbs.

    Thank you Dr. Green, for chiming in - appreciated. Two comments - Jasenovac was not a concentration camp, but an extermination camp - Croats did not feed prisoners, since they would be brought in to be murdered as soon as possible. Also, the numbers you quoted are inaccurate - the number of Serbs slaughtered is much larger. More on that follows below.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Re total victims count estimate: The estimate from the German SS officers, stationed in Nazi Croatia (NDH) during WW2, brings the total number of slaughtered Serbs to close to 2,000,000 (2 million). It's the number based on their reports sent to Berlin and probably the most accurate we have.

    Re Jasenovac: Just Jasenovac estimate according to the book 'Auschwitz of the Balkans' by Gideon Greif [2] is at least 1.4 million murdered Serb civilians! Even that number is not final, as many Serbs were thrown into the Sava River after their murder, as reported by the author, so their remains could not be accounted for in mass graves. BTW, extermination camp Jasenovac (it was not a concentration camp) was five times bigger than Auschwitz, and not the only extermination camp in Nazi Croatia, but just the biggest one. So the number mentioned does not include other extermination camps and hundreds of other locations where Serbs were slaughtered during WW2.

    Re 700k Serbs slaughtered reported by some authors [1]: After WW2, communists (non-Serb Tito, Croats, and Slovenians that ruled Yugoslavia) had to allow some forensics work only at the dismantled Jasenovac extermination camp to estimate the number killed by Croats. As the forensics work progressed and death estimates reached 700k Serbs murdered just there at Jasenovac, communists stopped all forensics work, which was still in progress with no end in sight, and rolled back the number to 70k. So, again, 700k was not final by any means and did not include victims killed in hundreds of locations outside Jasenovac. In other words, communists stopped it as damage control. So, those authors simply did not know that the forensic work was abruptly halted by the communists.

    Just to give you some sense of proportion: 70k Serb civilians were shipped to Jasenovac in just one WW2 operation around Kozara Region. This number was mentioned by Austrian Chancellor Kurt Waldheim, after his Nazi past was discovered and revealed to the world by one Serbian investigative reporter (Danko Vasović). His admission upset Vatican and Yugoslav communists so much, as it indirectly challenged their fake official 70k number for the entire WW2, since the 70k reported by Kurt was just one operation out of many, that they tried to assassinate Danko.

This book documents the brutal campaign of religious and ethnic extermination carried out by Croats - primarily through the Ustaša movement, but also with participation from the wider Croatian population - with the active support and involvement of the Roman Catholic Church, including Pope Pius XII himself.

    My friend Artem Ivanovich Kirpichenok would not hurt a fly. On 2 August 2026, he arrived in Tel Aviv and – somehow – ended up in prison. What we know is that he was arrested by the Shin Bet, Israel’s secret police. There has been no contact with him since. There has been no official reason for his detention. A historian and writer who is unusually gentle and kind has now disappeared into the Israeli prison system.

    Artem was born and lived in St. Petersburg (Russia), although he lived in Israel for fifteen years and graduated from the Hebrew University (Jerusalem). He later took a PhD in History from the Department of Slavic Studies at the Center for Arab-Eurasian Studies. Working as a journalist, Artem wrote for TRT Russian (Turkey) and Caliber (Azerbaijan), where he reported on the Israeli policy toward the Palestinians and on the Israeli war on Gaza. In 2018, Artem travelled to Iran, where he visited several cities and wrote about them on his personal blog.

    Nothing could, or would, be left to chance.

    This was an all-out operation, to permanently alter the course of history, and transform the nascent 21st century, into yet another Jewish supremacist blood-bath. Just like the 20th century was. The 'Jewish century'.

    Untold billions, perhaps trillions of dollars were spent. Absolute control over the Pentagon, and intelligence services, and so forth. The budget was unlimited, and they certainly weren't going to take any chances with a commercial passenger jet full of people, which means variables. The jets were custom built, and tested and retested. Even with all their planning, they still screwed up with Building Seven, which obviously was intended to fall under the cover of all the dust and confusion. And the Pentagon and Flight 93 didn't go as planned either.

    Their ace in the hole, was they knew they controlled the media and Bush regime, in absolute terms, just as they control the European media and governments. As indeed, they do to this day.

    If there is ever going to be justice, and a full understanding of what happened that day, it will have to come from 'we the people', from the grassroots- up. Because just like with the Epstein files, they will never allow an honest investigation that will implicate themselves.

    Just look at how involved Ehud Barak was with both Epstein, and 9/11. Howard Lutnik as well, and God knows how many other of these demons.

    “Even with all their planning, they still screwed up with Building Seven, which obviously was intended to fall under the cover of all the dust and confusion. And the Pentagon and Flight 93 didn’t go as planned either. ”

    Your principle is good, but they did not follow it strictly. They did not realize that the passengers can indeed overcome the fake “terrorists” as happened in Flight 93.

    Flight 93 was not supposed to fall to the ground somewhere and make a crater. It was supposed to hit something. I think it was supposed to dive to the roof of WTC7 from above. As WTC7 fell as it fell, the collapse would have looked like caused by a plane only if the plane dived steeply to the roof. And that is the only direction if could have used as WTC7 was a relatively low building, but for some reason it had to be demolished. And as Flight 93 already was steered by a control algorithm that was going to make a steep dive, they used the algorithm to make the steep dive to ground, this is why there is the crater. But what else they could have done? Allow Flight 93 to land so that FBI would investigate everything there and notice that terrorists were actors and the plane was in remote control. The plane had to be completely destroyed, so the crater. Passengers did make the phone calls. It was possible, later it was claimed that it was not possible, but I worked on that field and I find it possible.

    Pentagon strike, I think. succeeded. There was the problem with huge money that had disappeared somewhere. That problem was solved by the crash.

    So, I think you would have planned this operation better. But they made a mistake. However well-planned an operation is, there often is some mistake. Can’t help, but a coverup and spreading confusion usually fixes it.

    In general, characterizing the Soviet system as dull, uninspiring, seems a bit, only a bit, narrow-minded.

    I guess in every system there are ways to go up for enterprising, smart and ambitious people. Even in very poor and communist Cuba, ambitious individuals can be inspired by a career in the Party.

    These systems fail not because they are dull and uninspiring for ambitious individuals. They fail because they don’t deliver to the masses of ordinary individuals.

    The Soviet system also produced very advanced technology and science and a high level of education of the populace.

    In a sense, the Soviet system worked as laying the foundations for the building of a free and prosperous, capitalist system, which is what’s happening right now.

    It did.

    Don't know how it is now in RF, or the other 14 "republics" of the SU, but in USSR the education system -- particularly STEMs -- was superb. Consumer goods were clearly lousy, but education was second to none.

    Highest priority was given to military and space technologies, but civilian automobiles, white goods and such were so-so (...compared to the West.)

    People in the West have heard of Sputnik, Gagarin et. al.

    Recently I was on vacation in Paris, France. I used Google Maps to get a route to a certain place. It gave me a direct metro route and I was excited – until I got to the station, and realized that it had hallucinated an entire metro line. The metro line did not exist, but all the details were there, it had the station entrances and exits, the train timing, everything. And it was all made up. And later on, I was using it to get to a location an hour outside he metro area – and it made up a location and address out of thin air! It got me in the right general area, but then I had to ask around to figure out where the real address was. Perhaps this was a one-time bug with Google experimenting, but it was definitely a shock.

    I have had similar experiences using other professionally to format references etc. You can say ‘oh just check it’ but it’s not that simple. And as AIs use the output of AIs to build their databases – well – I am worried about this.

The president of the kike wall street banksters, Franklin Delano Rosenfeld, indeed sent a tremondous amount of war material to the USSR but in exchange Uncle Joe in Moscow sent a real lot of soviet cannon fodder to fight the goyim which rebelled against the kike banksters oppression. Only thanks to millions of cannon fooder's deaths and a resulting defeat of goyish military on the Eastern Front did the USSA under the leadership of F.D.Rosenfeld came out victorious out the "good war" and the kike bunksters remained intact.

    Iran Demanded Compensation From the US — Trump Immediately Turned the Tables

     

    Iran has a long and storied history of making absurd demands while ignoring its own track record, and this week was no different. After months of conflict, Iranian officials decided the United States should compensate them for damages tied to the war.
    ...

    The President was having none of the silly demand from the rogue regime and responded in kind on Truth Social. Iranian officials probably should have thought better before demanding compensation from anybody.

    "It is an interesting idea because now I am likewise demanding compensation from Iran, for all of the people that they have killed and gravely wounded with their roadside bombs and many conflicts," Trump countered.

    He went on to mention the USS Cole bombing from nearly 26 years ago and suggested compensation to America should include consideration of "thousands of others killed in combat."

    "Additionally, compensation should be paid to the families of the hundreds of thousands of innocent protestors that Iran has killed over the last 50 years, not to mention the 52,000 that have been killed in the last five months," he added.

    Trump said he has instructed his representatives to include the compensation demand into "any, and all, future negotiations."
    ...

    As RedState's Ward Clark writes, President Trump agreeing to provide compensation to Iran post-war is as likely as "domestic swine take unaided to the skies."

     

    When will Iran get its act together and make credible offer?

    So your characterization of the Soviet Union as a “gray place, dull and uninspiring” doesn’t seem correct at least for Soviet children.
     
    Although I've never been to the Soviet Union or Russia, I've visited three African and six Latin American countries, all of which are known as "developing" or "third-world" countries (i.e. poor).

    In every case, the children I observed from a distance in those countries were visibly happier and definitely more energetic than most children I've seen in developed/first-world countries. This is just anectdotal of course, but my impression has been: the poorer the country, the happier its children.

    Nevertheless, I was impressed by the biological vitality of the human stock. Nearly all men were young and seemed to be working out in the gym all day. Women were equally fit.

    In the nice hotel I was staying, the upper class women were in fact very beautiful. I usually dined excellent food in a comfy restaurant with a garden and big fans running all the time, with fast internet.

    In contrast, I was recently back in Boston for business. Black people in America are fucked. Fat slobs nearly the whole lot. Though a few blacks I saw near Martha’s Vineyard looked more like those of Madagascar.

    Kaiser Bill and his circle wanted to conquer much of Eastern Europe on the Lebensraum argument (Hitler was not the first!). That meant fighting Russia. But Russia was industrialising successfully so they wanted a pretext to start a war before Russia was too strong to attack. They found their pretext in urging Austria to act against Serbia over the Sarajevo assassination.

    They attacked France because she was Russia's ally - they reckoned to knock France out of the war before Russia had had time to mobilise all its troops. But Kaiser Bill - who had what a historian called a "wayward" intellect - had spent years making a needless enemy of Britain, building a fleet with the express purpose of sinking the Royal Navy in the North Sea. For that reason, plus the reason that Germany had invaded Belgium, Britain sent its army - tiny but professional - to help the French. At the Battle of the Marne the combined army was just strong enough to defeat the Germans and send them retreating back North.

    This sequence was explained by Professor Fischer in the fifties using his access to the Imperial German records held in Potsdam.

    My point is that aluminum cannot cut, break or penetrate steel, so the videos showing the planes flying right through the steel box columns of the Twin Towers are obvious fakes, but of course you try to change the subject to the smoke, as if office fires were some great mystery.

    In my comment 28, above, I've demonstrated that Kevin Westlake's acclaimed video is fake by pointing out obvious timing and spatial errors in that video, where the plane appears to go completely into the WTC 2 without any fireball or explosion, and even worse, leaves behind no gash in the building. Several frames pass before a fireball does erupt out of the east side of the building and soon spreads to the south side, where the plane appeared to strike the structure.

    Michael Hezarkhani's infamous 9/11 video, by contrast, more or less covers up the plane's apparent entry point into the building with some small puffs of smoke. Before that, just as the plane appears to strike the building, there is a small bright reddish ball on/near the plane's fiberglass nose cone in just one single frame before the plane continues knifing into the structure without further fiery effects of any kind until, several frames later, a huge fireball does erupt out of the east side of the building and spreads to the south side, much as in Westlake's fake video.

    I've noticed there are at least two versions of Herzarkhani's video on the Internet, one noticeably higher quality than the other and with a brighter, more distinct red (fire)ball -- if that's what it was supposed to be -- but it is still quite small and appears in just one frame only, thereafter seemingly going into the building with the airplane. Yeah, right.


    In late 2019 we attempted to license Hezarkhani’s footage from a prominent image library as part of a series of screens we produced for ACMI’s new museum experience: The Story of the Moving Image. After initial enquiries regarding licensing fees, the discussions hit a wall when the vendor announced they were unable to contact the rights holder.

    That rights holder would be Michael Hezarkhani, and apparently, he's either disappeared or is incommunicado.

    Finally, If aluminum really could penetrate steel, there would be aluminum bullets and aluminum anti-tank rounds, so no wonder you try to change the subject to the smoke, but maybe you should now find some sideshow strongman to break Occam's Razor with his bare hands.

    “Finally, If aluminum really could penetrate steel, there would be aluminum bullets and aluminum anti-tank rounds, so no wonder you try to change the subject to the smoke, but maybe you should now find some sideshow strongman to break Occam’s Razor with his bare hands. ”

    So, as the Polish guy in the video that I sent to you did break a steel wrench with his bare hands, it follows that there must be bullets and anti-tank rounds made out of Polish guys? Is this your logic?

    No, there are no, and there are no bullets and anti-tank rounds made out of aluminum because in order to aluminum to break steel, the cross section of aluminum that hits steel must be very large. If the cross section is small, like in a bullet, the soft bullet spreads over a larger area. The material still has momentum towards the target, but as the area is larger, pressure (force/area) is smaller and the bullet does not penetrate.

    But consider what happens if the cross section is large, let’s say, circular like the cross section of a bullet. From the circumsphere of this circle aluminum matter can spread outwards, so in the circumsphere pressure can decrease by softer matter spreading. But how about the area near the center of the circle? It does not have time to go to the circumsphere, the impact time is too short. It cannot escape anywhere, where-ever it goes, it is still in the original area of impact. The pressure does not decrease significantly by softer matter spreading.

    You can prove this easily. Take a toothpick and try to punch a hole in the tin chassis of your car. The toothpick spreads, pressure decreases and the toothpick does not do any damage to the tin. But take a sack with some 50 kg of these toothpicks and smash the car hard with the sack. You will get some tin damage. Why would there be any difference if the hitting mass is large or small, if all that matters is hardness of materials?

    About your video analysis, many or all videos can be fake. There are many fake things in this 9/11 case. Like, did the passport of a terrorist really fall from the plane to the street? I am not saying that all proposed evidence is authentic, much is fake. But the job of an investigator of what really happened is to find hard evidence from this mess of real and fake pieces of information.

The burden of proof is always on the person making the claim, but you haven't done that despite your uncountable walls of text talking about everything else. Now, it's a sack of toothpicks, but as I said, you do provide comic relief with your idiotic arguments.


    A strong man is not made out of aluminum, j2 -- in case you hadn't noticed -- nor is there any way to prove that strongman video itself is not fake -- standard sideshow magic act -- but it's typical of your misdirection and inane irrelevancies.


    I am claiming that many people did see a fireball.
     
    Perhaps they did, but as I've told you, there is not even a single mention of a fireball in CNN's 9/11 transcript, which includes many eyewitness accounts, including the very first ones, but no fireball.

    But go ahead and post some eyewitness accounts of fireballs on 9/11. The fireballs were the most shocking and spectacular part of the televised 9/11 psychodrama, so there should be many accounts of them, but not a single eyewitness interviewed by CNN at the time mentioned any fireballs.

  • While world leaders, from Putin to Erdoğan have bragged about the United States as the most powerful nation on earth, few dare to address the fact that it is ruled by a family widely regarded as profoundly corrupt and criminal. The leader of this criminal enterprise openly boasts about his service to Jews – where violence, ritual child abuse and rape are normalised, specifically among those in the illegal settler colony –, his theft of billions from the Venezuelan people, and his threats to annihilate 93 million Iranians, effectively dismantling their civilisation. This criminal threat goes largely unchallenged by those who might otherwise confront such a fascistic regime—a stark contrast to the global outcry that would have surely followed had Adolf Hitler made similar pronouncements eight decades ago. The blatant hypocrisy of Russia commemorating alleged Nazi crimes annually while simultaneously striving to be a close ally of war criminals like Trump and Netanyahu is striking.

    Birthrate problem for urban society is nothing new. Chinese birthrate is higher than south korea, japan, taiwan, which proves that state capitalism is not worse than neoliberal capitalism in this regard.

    Whenever you have the urge to say one thing China is doing poorly, 99% of the time you can easily see that japan, south korea, and/or taiwan is worse in that aspect. Dysfunctional urban China is still more functional than its neighboring countries. Why? Because only China has the ability to execute policy that displeased western globohomo overlords. Eg.

    Sure, but one area in which is not doing well is culture. The girl in the video manifests a very materialistic mindset. Fascism held that man is fundamentally spiritualism. The state capitalist economic model is ok but money isn’t everything. In fact, placing excessive importance on it seems to be the problem.

    Thus many of the practical expressions of Fascism such as party organization, system of education, and discipline can only be understood when considered in relation to its general attitude toward life. A spiritual attitude. Fascism sees in the world not only those superficial, material aspects in which man appears as an individual, standing by himself, self-centered, subject to natural law, which instinctively urges him toward a life of selfish momentary pleasure; it sees not only the individual but the nation and the country; individuals and generations bound together by a moral law, with common traditions and a mission which suppressing the instinct for life closed in a brief circle of pleasure, builds up a higher life, founded on duty, a life free from the limitations of time and space, in which the individual, by self- sacrifice, the renunciation of self-interest, by death itself, can achieve that purely spiritual existence in which his value as a man consists.

    Icarus in the Faculty Lounge
    The Cambridge professor Jason Arday’s unlikely ascent has come to a tragic end.
    By Daniel Engber
    August 6, 2026
     

    Great and Unfortunate Things, which Arday co-wrote with Eve Claxton, is still scheduled to come out next week from Simon & Schuster. The story that it tells should not be taken at face value; it differs notably from other versions of his life that Arday has shared in public and in private, including in the original proposal he sent out with his agent.
     

    But the most disturbing inconsistencies arise from Arday’s book proposal, a copy of which was obtained by The Atlantic. That document, from 2024, cites several accolades of which no proof exists online. The proposal also lays out many of the same events as the memoir but with slightly different dates and details: The boys who beat him up were not his age but four years older; his suicide attempt happened before, not during, the pandemic. And whereas the book describes Arday as having survived two brain tumors, the proposal says he had a bout of testicular cancer. No reference to that illness appears in the memoir.

    Nor does the book describe the time that Arday, then a teenager, was struck by a car and spent several months in a coma. According to the book proposal, the doctors told his parents that he would never recover, and suggested taking him off life support “as an act of mercy.” Through all of this, he was aware of everything that was going on, because he had locked-in syndrome. “As I will describe to readers in the book,” Arday wrote in the proposal, “these months afforded me another profoundly different way of perceiving the world.”

    The book doesn’t describe any of this, nor that he awakened “miraculously” from the coma, nor the full year he spent “relearning everything—how to walk, to talk.” Instead, the memoir tells us only that he spent those months finishing his final year of secondary school and taking his exams. “I was relieved, beyond relieved,” the memoir says, when those were done.

    Then there is the prophecy—the revelation Arday was given in Brazil, that he would suffer greatly and also do great things. According to the proposal, this occurred in 2005, not 2006, and the message came not from a local aid worker in her 30s but from “an elder in the small town where I had been assigned, who was well-known in the area for predicting people’s futures.” (Later in the proposal, he calls this person a “shaman woman.”) “Do you know the story of Spartacus, the escaped slave who led a rebellion against the Romans?” this town elder asks, before telling him his fate in minute detail. “Every event she described,” Arday writes in the proposal, “has since come to pass.”

    My point is that aluminum cannot cut, break or penetrate steel, so the videos showing the planes flying right through the steel box columns of the Twin Towers are obvious fakes, but of course you try to change the subject to the smoke, as if office fires were some great mystery.

    In my comment 28, above, I've demonstrated that Kevin Westlake's acclaimed video is fake by pointing out obvious timing and spatial errors in that video, where the plane appears to go completely into the WTC 2 without any fireball or explosion, and even worse, leaves behind no gash in the building. Several frames pass before a fireball does erupt out of the east side of the building and soon spreads to the south side, where the plane appeared to strike the structure.

    Michael Hezarkhani's infamous 9/11 video, by contrast, more or less covers up the plane's apparent entry point into the building with some small puffs of smoke. Before that, just as the plane appears to strike the building, there is a small bright reddish ball on/near the plane's fiberglass nose cone in just one single frame before the plane continues knifing into the structure without further fiery effects of any kind until, several frames later, a huge fireball does erupt out of the east side of the building and spreads to the south side, much as in Westlake's fake video.

    I've noticed there are at least two versions of Herzarkhani's video on the Internet, one noticeably higher quality than the other and with a brighter, more distinct red (fire)ball -- if that's what it was supposed to be -- but it is still quite small and appears in just one frame only, thereafter seemingly going into the building with the airplane. Yeah, right.


    In late 2019 we attempted to license Hezarkhani’s footage from a prominent image library as part of a series of screens we produced for ACMI’s new museum experience: The Story of the Moving Image. After initial enquiries regarding licensing fees, the discussions hit a wall when the vendor announced they were unable to contact the rights holder.
     
    https://www.gatherer.media/writing/digital-stasis-the-september-11-footage-orphaned-to-youtube

    That rights holder would be Michael Hezarkhani, and apparently, he's either disappeared or is incommunicado.

    Finally, If aluminum really could penetrate steel, there would be aluminum bullets and aluminum anti-tank rounds, so no wonder you try to change the subject to the smoke, but maybe you should now find some sideshow strongman to break Occam's Razor with his bare hands.

    “My point is that aluminum cannot cut, break or penetrate steel, so the videos showing the planes flying right through the steel box columns of the Twin Towers are obvious fakes, but of course you try to change the subject to the smoke, as if office fires were some great mystery.”

    Scroll up my responses to you in this thread and notice that I start by accepting the possibility that some or all videos of planes hitting the towers can be fake. I am not claiming that any of those videos is authentic. But it does not matter: I am claiming that many people did see a fireball and huge smoke that came in seconds and looked like the one shown by videos. This fireball and smoke prove that there was fuel. As there was fuel, there were the planes.

    Aluminum can break steel. It cannot cut steel. Softer material cannot cut harder material, but softer material certainly can break harder material. I gave you a link to a video where a guy breaks a steel wrench with his own hands. I suggested you try breaking the highest note guitar string by stretching it with an aluminum knife, it will break, I have broken many guitar strings without trying to break them. Throw a baseball to a window, it often breaks. So, it is totally idiotic to keep on insisting that softer material cannot break harder material. Of course it can, it depends on the pressure it gives. Especially, steel bends only to some point and then it breaks. Any softer material can bend steel, you can try to bend steel with your bare hands (if the steel object is not too thick), it will break when it bends too much.

    There was never any braggadocio from Orthodox Christian Serbs about anything, but there is constant being-proud-Nazi braggadocio in Croatia because the West tolerates and hides it as you are their useful idiots. Even Nazi Croatia's invasion of Bosnia (UN recognized in 1992) in 1995 was swept under the carpet, never reported in the media and completely concealed.

    As a matter of fact, all those so called "victims" from 90s just "happen" to be WW2 partners of Nazi Germany: Bosnian/Balkan Muslims (aka Bosniaks), Catholic Croats, primitive Muslim Albanians aka "Kosovars", and Catholic Slovenians, while the “oppressors” and “aggressors” were Serbs that fought against Nazis.

    Re Croatia Nazi braggadocio:

    More than 500,000 (half a million) Croats attended mega Nazi Croatian rock star Thomson concert in 2025 [1][3].

    Total population of Croatia in 2025 was 3.874 million (Eurostat), so 13% (thirteen) of the country's entire population attended that Nazi-themed concert! That's a world record in Nazi devotion!

    Below are the pictures from Thomson's 2007 concert [3][4]. As you know, his lyrics openly praise mass murder of Orthodox Christian Serbs and advocate attack on Serbia!

    Of course, Croats are not worried though as neither Western MSM nor Putin / Russian MSM will report on Croatia being one proud Nazi country - they all protect murderers of Serbs! That is why Croats can proudly display their Nazi past and present [2] with no fear of consequences.

    What was burning? You have not answered it.
     
    There would have been a certain "natural" quantity of combustibles in the Twin Towers: wooden furniture and doors, carpets, plastic, paper, and that would have been enough to ensure 30 minutes of spectacular combustion. Plus, the Mossad operatives who planted the explosives could also have brought ordinary combustibles such as oils and grease, which burn for a very long time. There would have been plenty of those material stored in the basement maintenance workshops, they are used for standard upkeep of equipment such as lifts and motors of the ventilation system.

    It is not fully comparable because it was residential, but the much smaller (24 storeys) Grenfell Tower in London burnt for as much as 60 hours. So really, 30 minutes wasn't that much. It is difficult, looking at the video, to ascertain what combustible was involved. The fumes' black color indicates that the fire was starved of oxygen.

    Replies: @j2

    Iris, the problem with the no-planes theory is not that the building burned for 30 min or longer. The problem is that it started burning too fast.

    What caught fire and produced a huge fireball and huge smoke in one second? Airplane kerosine can do it: it spreads to the air in the explosion when the plane hits the building, catches fire and burns very fast. What can catch fire and burn so fast if there was no plane?

    There was much combustible material to burn for a long time. The building could have burned for days had it not collapsed. But why the fireball and huge smoke came and grew large in seconds.

    Office material does not burn so fast. It starts small and then the fire grows, but it takes time. We can see it e.g. when Ukraine attacks at Russian Windberries with drones. The warehouse is full of very inflammable Chinese plastic products and when the burn, they produce really huge smoke, also the fires are huge. But it does not start in seconds, it takes quite much time before the warehouse burns with large fires and huge smoke. The drone has explosives and they set fire to the products in the warehouse, but despite this, the material does not create a fireball and huge smoke in seconds.

    What the no-planes theory claims is that there were explosives in the building, and naturally there was lots of combustible material in the building. Explosives detonate. This means a very fast chemical reaction. It is much faster than burning. Fuel in air burns. Explosives detonate. (If you want fuel to detonate, mix nitrate to it to give oxygen, so you get a fertilizer bomb, but in air fuel burns, it does not detonate)

    Fuel in air burns and burning is a slower process than detonation. This is why we can tell that in the fireball that WTC videos show, something is burning. It burns too long for it to be a detonation from explosives. Explosives give a very short flash only. The fireball is there for many seconds, it is burning.

    The question is: what is burning there? It is not explosives, they detonate and create a very short flash, it is not office material and wood, that cannot catch fire so fast and make the fireball and smoke so fast.

    There was the fireball and huge smoke, they came in seconds. That means, there was fuel, lots of it. There were no fuel tanks in the floors where the fireball came from. That means, this was fuel that came to the building in the crash. It was airplane fuel, so there were the planes.

    • Replies: @Iris
    @j2

    Hello J2; thanks for your reply.

    The "No-Plane" theory does not contradict any of the physical manifestation that were recorded at the WTC. I deliberately use the "participle" recorded because, unlike a human testimony, a video or a photograph can undergo examination in a court of justice.


    But why the fireball and huge smoke came and grew large in seconds.
     
    Because the Twin Towers were rigged with nanothermite, a highly energetic explosive made even more reactive by its mixing at the nano-scale. Nanonthermite was used to simulate a huge explosion caused by a "plane" crashing. It is a military-grade explosive, available at the time only to the US and Israeli military, and of which traces were found in the WTC rubble.
    Once the explosion happened, the ensuing fire would have been sustained by the presence of more ordinary combustibles. A 30 minute combustion duration is not much.

    In addition, other explosives were planted in several areas of the Towers. Sometimes, they exploded before their respective "plane attack" because Mossad operatives got their synchronizing wrong.
    In the basement/ maintenance area of the North Tower, several witnesses reported explosions that preceded the plane crash. The entry lobby of the South Tower was the site of explosion before the "plane" hit. One can guess that the purpose of these secondary explosions was to stage the psy-op, to materialize the scenario that the plane attack was supposedly causing multiple structural failure culminating in a collapse, and hence justify the ineluctable controlled demolition that was coming, undertaken by another, third type of explosion: an underground nuclear detonation.

I always remember a story about Rocky Marciano ( who wasn’t the Boy Scout he was portrayed to be, he hung out with mob guys after retiring, never picked up a tab, and neglected his family while chasing women, making up for lost time I guess….) Anyhow he was sitting with actor Burt Reynolds at a bar (Marciano didn’t drink) and a drunk guy told him he could beat the hell out Marciano. Marciano took it in stride and said you might could you look tough but I’d rather be your friend. For his warts as a skinflint, cheater on his wife and not a good father, Marciano was classy in other ways.

    Ivanka is really a plain Jane who had tons of work and even then she’s not sexy imo. Now a 40 year old Angie Dickinson is sexier than Melania and certainly more than Daddy’s girl. I wouldn’t walk across the street to see anyone in the Trump family. When Ivanka dies and everyone alive now will die unless Jesus comes soon, none of her wealth will mean shit.

    That's an attractive idea. I'm not sure why. Is it true? What is a nerd? Was Stalin a nerd? 'Nerd' is a pretty amorphous category, isn't it? With both an intellectual and a physical side to it.

    I was a sliderule whiz and a member of the 'Rocket Club' in high school. That was the post-Sputnik era. Every American high school had a rocket club in those days. "Catch up with the Russkies!" That was the mantra. Was I a nerd?

    Didn't Plato suggest that the best form of government was rule by a 'philosopher king'? That's pretty nerdish, isn't it? Was Marcus Aurelius such a ruler? Or Frederick the Great?

    My family was familiar with the nerd category. One of my younger brother's classmates, the son of a coworker of my dad, was our model. I remember him well. His usually vacant facial expression suggested that he was never quite in touch with what was going on around him.

    One day in class he did an arithmetical calculation at the blackboard. When the teacher pointed out that he was off by several thousand he responded, "I seem to have made a slight miscalculation."

    How we laughed! Not maliciously, but as people laughed at Art Linkletter's Kids-Say-the-Darndest-Things shows. I was not spared. My mother never stopped laughing at me once saying to her, when I was seven or eight, "You must be firm with your children."

    Trump hid in catering cart to board secret flight in Turkey amid Iran threat – reports
    Elaborate ruse was used to transport president to military flight from Air Force One to return from Nato meet

    Prompted by an Iranian assassination threat, Donald Trump departed on a secret military flight from Turkey last month when the White House said he was flying aboard ⁠Air Force One, in an extraordinary ruse that involved hiding the president in an airport catering cart, according to reporting from the Washington Post and the New York Times.

    The operation took place when Trump was in Ankara for a Nato summit with world leaders, according to the Post. The president reportedly boarded the old Air Force One jumbo jet in view of television cameras, and then was secretly shuttled minutes later to a smaller plane via an airport catering truck typically used to load meals and other supplies preflight, a US official told the Post.

    An official also confirmed the operation to the New York Times.

    Many other writers copied his writing at times, noticeably Vernor Vinge, who seems to have been, in line with what you say, something of an inspiration to the current Zio-U.S. 'tech. billionaires'.

    Hollywood could make a blockbuster horror movie about living and breathing people experiencing hell itself in this life. It’d be set on board “Nat” Rothschild’s yacht Planet Nine with everyday people forced to be among the Epstein class for the day and have to watch these degenerate donkeys in racing silks eating and drinking like animals feeding at the trough. Among the Epstein class, you see, it’s considered high style to talk while still chewing one’s food. The fork isn’t brought up from the plate to the mouth and instead the head goes sideways down to the plate for the food.

    The oiliest thing about these mega-yachts isn’t the helicopter and fun-girls deck, but the theater where the prisoners in our movie would be forced to sit through two movies with these pigs. For some serious punishment of the prisoners, Planet Nine would then drop them off at the Obama’s place on Martha’s Vineyard for an evening at Barry’s.

    perhaps i am jumping to conclusions about her surgical modifications, maybe she has just naturally transformed and devolved, due to her primitive bronze age mentality. i'm sure ivanka (what a beautiful and melodic name, reminiscent of a goose honking) has had several million dollars worth of plastic surgery, starting in her teens, perhaps at daddy's suggestion, tweaking her nose and perhaps her nipples, as the don was known to do. you'd think after what happened to her mother, she might be hesitant to go under the knife, but she's still young there's still time to under go repeated surgeries until she is perfect, just like michael jackson.

  • … the baggage of communism.

    This is so typical of Croats – whine about some something that were a part of as rulers and benefited greatly from it like Communists Yugoslavia and Kingdom of SCS, more on that below, and then afterwards present it as something that was a disaster or some great misfortune to them.

    Didn’t Croats, Slovenians, and non-Serb dictator Tito rule communist Yugoslavia? Through such position of power Croats stole Adriatic Coast and other territories and then made that theft official with Milosevic help, i.e. through his treason!

    That is why map of Croatia looks funny – like a boomerang – all due to territory theft and the fact that it never existed as a country until 1992 AD. One arm of that boomerang-looking blood-soaked country is a theft of some of the most fertile land in Former Yugoslavia (Slavonia, etc.), while the other is close to an entire Former Yugoslavia’s Adriatic Coast.

    P.S. Allegedly, somebody “attacked” you (WW1, WW2, 90s) and then while “defending” yourselves you murdered and expelled all people that lived on the territory you stole: Serbs (WW1, WW2, 90s), Italians (WW2), Jews (WW2), and Gypsies/Romas (WW2)! That is why there are less than 5% non-Croats in Contemporary Catholic Nazi Croatia. The same thing in the Muslim part of Bosnia and in Occupied Kosovo – all non-Muslims and non-Albanians are either murdered or expelled and not only Serbs!

    When, in the early 2000s, the Orange (anti‑Russian) forces came to power in Ukraine for the first time, they had an obsessive idea to list all the activists by name — those who had taken part in the Holodomor in Ukraine in the early 1930s. And they actually started collecting such information. In response, they were very strongly asked by Israel not to do so. During the civil war in the 1920s, the local Ukrainian population enthusiastically engaged in the massacre of Jews. But in the early 1930s, Jews dominated Ukraine and its leadership (in particular, the NKVD), and they used their chance to take revenge on the local population.
    The first pogroms against Jews are recorded in chronicles as early as the 1100s.

    There is an anecdote that I recall from a biography of Nikita Khrushchev that ties into this:

    A Jewish woman wrote to Khrushchev asking for help in restoring her property in the Ukraine.
    He wrote back that he couldn’t help because the Ukrainians had bitter memories about the Jewish role in the Holodomar, or something to that effect.

    Khrushchev himself was reviled as the “Butcher of the Ukraine”. That such a man would mark out the Jewish role in that is telling.

    ...because the Ukrainians had bitter memories about the Jewish role in the Holodomar, or something to that effect.
     
    I check out RT routinely, and there is a strong undercurrent there regarding the 'glorification of Nazis', by former Soviet satellite states, like the Baltics and Ukraine, in particular.

    I think it is this lingering hostility over the harsh repressions and pogroms of the Bolshevik / Soviet period, that is driving the hatred between the Eastern Europe vs. Russia. And it's all basically over 'the narrative', of the Red Army having "liberated" Eastern Europe from the ultimate evil, 'the Nazis'.

    The problem is, that it isn't as cut and dry as Russia, (and Hollywood), would like to have it. WWII was not, (all the Hollywood movies notwithstanding), a conflict between pure good, (the Allies) vs. pure evil (the 'Nazis').

    https://www.rt.com/russia/644116-ukraine-rebury-nazi-collaborator/

    The millions of men, (Russian, Ukrainian and others) who lost family in the Holodomor and gulags, and fought the Red Army, were not 'traitors to Russia', and 'evil Nazis', as Russia would have us believe. But Russia, for some reason, remains very strident on this issue. So much so, that I think they'd be willing to go WWIII, just to protect that (absurd) narrative, of the Red Army as great, heroic "liberators". (They weren't ; )

    For the record, I support Russia in its current conflict with ZOG. 100%

    And that is the reason I bring this up, [hopefully, not too far ot) because both the Russian people, and the Eastern European people, suffered unimaginably during that Jewish supremacist orchestrated madness from 1914 to 1945, and beyond..

    It's time for all the Christians over there, to stop hating each other, over past, nationalistic, parochial hostilities, and finally, finally see who their real enemies have been all along. Zelinsky the Jew, (along with ((NATO)), is doing all he can to slaughter as many Ukrainian and Russian young men as possible. Ukrainians and Russians and everyone else over there, should not play into their hands, any longer.

    First off, please Russia, stop insisting that all the men who fought the Red Army, were evil Nazis.

    That is absurd, and is counter-productive.

    Let them honor the victims of the Holodomor, and their fallen heroes, as they see fit. It is not done as a slight against modern Russia. I, (for one) want very much to see rapprochement, and for Germany to start buying Russian gas, and so forth. That is my hope.

    And the only ones I see who would be opposed to that, are the supremacist, war-loving Jews, and a few Russians and Europeans who want to cling to ultra-nationalist hatreds from those ((orchestrated)) 20th century wars.

  • The cover photo shows Dubrovnik, which is known throughout the world. Few people know that not far from Dubrovnik, Saint Paul performed the first baptisms of Serbs in the caves around the Trebišnica River, while hiding from Nero, immediately after the founding of the first Christian diocese in the world in modern Serbia (Sirmium) where Saint Peter also hid from Nero.

    Even fewer people know that according to the 1890 census of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, 100% of the population was Serb, while Croats did not exist at all, nor did the Croatian language. That year, the Serbian Party won the elections in Dubrovnik. The communists gave Serbian Dubrovnik to the Croats, and now there are almost no Serbs there.

    from Croatian royal cavalrymen and their killing sprees in the Protestant town of Magdeburg in 1631 during the Thirty Years’ War,

    (Wiki: “Of the 25,000 inhabitants of Magdeburg [Odyssey: its original name was Serbin], only 5,000 survived, at least 1,000 of these having fled into Magdeburg Cathedral and 600 into the Premonstratensian monastery. The fire destroyed 1,700 of the city’s 1,900 buildings. Tilly finally ordered an end to the looting on 24 May, and a Catholic mass was celebrated at the cathedral on the next day. For another fourteen days, charred bodies were dumped in the Elbe River to prevent disease.”

    The cathedral in Magdeburg in front of which entrance until the ww2 was carved “Gott, behutte uns von Pesten, Krieger und Kroaten!” which in translation means “God save us from the plague, famine and Croats“. In that cathedral alone, the Croats beheaded over 50 women and children. They didn’t look at whether he was young or old. They pierced the child who was sucking on his mother’s breast. In Magdeburg, over 25,000 people were slaughtered in the most brutal way, and that in just three days. Women raped in turn. People totally butchered. The same atrocities, which were repeated in WW2, in Jasenovac and throughout the Nazi puppet Croatia.

    In 1638, a booklet “Mourning over Germany” was published in London, describing the horrors of Croats atrocities. They forced priests to pray in front of the altar while they slaughtered them, raped women in the church, took people’s eyes out, skinned them, cut women’s arms and legs, burned living people, broke fingers with a rope, skinned people’s faces, cut their noses and ears and made a pendant out of them, threw women into the river, poured urine through people’s pipes into their stomachs…

    China recorded 22.91 million inbound foreign visits in the first half of 2026, marking a 20.4% increase from the previous year. This follows a broader rebound where total inbound visits surpassed 150 million in 2025 (which included travelers from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan alongside 35.17 million strict foreign tourists).

    The above AI blurb does not strip out former Chinklanders going back to Chinkland to visit family, business visits or pre-planned and therefore pre-approved group trips.

    The average Chinklander is dirt poor and lives on well under $200 a month. The poverty line per the CCP is only 4,000 yuan a year. That is around 333 yuan a month or around $48 dollars. With such a low income there can only be widespread poverty and ... widespread homelessness. LOL!!!

    On 24 February 2026, the fourth anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution titled “Support for Lasting Peace in Ukraine.”
    The resolution called for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire, reaffirmed Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders, and demanded the release of prisoners of war and deported civilians, including children.
    It passed with 107 votes in favour, 12 against, and 51 abstentions. Support also rose from the previous year’s 93 votes, which Ukraine described as a sign of growing international backing.
     
    The abstentions shouldn't be counted as either supporting or not supporting either Ukraine or Russia.

    It's very telling that Russia's "eternal fraternal nation" China, abstained both in the 2022 and in the 2026 vote from actually supporting Russia. Like I said from the very beginning of the conflict, China will ultimately end up being the big winner in this catastrophe...without firing a single bullet (very smart, those Chinese). :-)

    Replies: @Saggy

    Churchill seems to have made a rather big mistake:

    Indeed, if we believe AI (copilot) Jews did not play a significant role in either the French or Russian revolutions …

    ⭐ The “Jewish revolution” narrative is a 19th–20th century myth.
    It comes from:

    counter‑revolutionary Catholic polemics

    German far‑right propaganda

    White Army propaganda

    Nesta Webster’s writings

    Churchill’s 1920 article (influenced by Webster)

    Nazi ideology

    post‑WWI panic literature

    These sources:

    exaggerated the role of a few individuals

    ignored the overwhelmingly non‑Jewish leadership

    projected modern anxieties backward

    used fabricated or misattributed lists

    created the “85% Jewish Bolsheviks” myth Putin repeated

    None of this matches archival evidence.

    ⭐ So what’s the historically defensible conclusion?
    Here’s the version that is accurate, precise, and avoids group‑level generalization:

    Neither the French nor the Russian revolutions were Jewish movements.
    Jewish communities were not driving forces.
    A few individuals of Jewish background participated, but not in a way that made the revolutions “Jewish.”

    That’s the correct synthesis.

    It’s factual.
    It’s historically grounded.
    It avoids stereotypes.
    It avoids categorical claims about a protected group.
    And it matches the archival record.

They said during summer, school breaks and on weekends they went out of their house in the morning and returned house late in the afternoon, playing safely with friends all day, and in the southern republics, eating good fruit to keep on playing.

    "there were no hijacked jetliners on 9/11, and the videos are obvious fakes. "

    Is this your article of faith or can you explain what was burning to create the fireballs and smoke that the planes-theory says came from airplane fuel? You have not answered this question yet in a satisfactory way. You only repeat your belief.

    There are many videos that show the fireball and smoke, like this one entitled
    Original raw footage from 9/11
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0Qu6eyyr4c&list=PL21CD5EAAD255D7D7&index=2

    There are videos where many people who did not see the planes (looked too late) did look at the fireball and black smoke, so I assume there is no serious question that there were the fireballs and the smoke. What was burning? You have not answered it. You suggested that it was CGI or that they had some kerosine. It is not a small amount of kerosine, the fireball and smoke need a huge amount of kerosine. As there was kerosine, there were the planes.

    Replies: @Iris, @Sparkon

    My point is that aluminum cannot cut, break or penetrate steel, so the videos showing the planes flying right through the steel box columns of the Twin Towers are obvious fakes, but of course you try to change the subject to the smoke, as if office fires were some great mystery.

    In my comment 28, above, I’ve demonstrated that Kevin Westlake’s acclaimed video is fake by pointing out obvious timing and spatial errors in that video, where the plane appears to go completely into the WTC 2 without any fireball or explosion, and even worse, leaves behind no gash in the building. Several frames pass before a fireball does erupt out of the east side of the building and soon spreads to the south side, where the plane appeared to strike the structure.

    Michael Hezarkhani’s infamous 9/11 video, by contrast, more or less covers up the plane’s apparent entry point into the building with some small puffs of smoke. Before that, just as the plane appears to strike the building, there is a small bright reddish ball on/near the plane’s fiberglass nose cone in just one single frame before the plane continues knifing into the structure without further fiery effects of any kind until, several frames later, a huge fireball does erupt out of the east side of the building and spreads to the south side, much as in Westlake’s fake video.

    I’ve noticed there are at least two versions of Herzarkhani’s video on the Internet, one noticeably higher quality than the other and with a brighter, more distinct red (fire)ball — if that’s what it was supposed to be — but it is still quite small and appears in just one frame only, thereafter seemingly going into the building with the airplane. Yeah, right.

    In late 2019 we attempted to license Hezarkhani’s footage from a prominent image library as part of a series of screens we produced for ACMI’s new museum experience: The Story of the Moving Image. After initial enquiries regarding licensing fees, the discussions hit a wall when the vendor announced they were unable to contact the rights holder.

    https://www.gatherer.media/writing/digital-stasis-the-september-11-footage-orphaned-to-youtube

    That rights holder would be Michael Hezarkhani, and apparently, he’s either disappeared or is incommunicado.

    Finally, If aluminum really could penetrate steel, there would be aluminum bullets and aluminum anti-tank rounds, so no wonder you try to change the subject to the smoke, but maybe you should now find some sideshow strongman to break Occam’s Razor with his bare hands.

    Scroll up my responses to you in this thread and notice that I start by accepting the possibility that some or all videos of planes hitting the towers can be fake. I am not claiming that any of those videos is authentic. But it does not matter: I am claiming that many people did see a fireball and huge smoke that came in seconds and looked like the one shown by videos. This fireball and smoke prove that there was fuel. As there was fuel, there were the planes.

    Aluminum can break steel. It cannot cut steel. Softer material cannot cut harder material, but softer material certainly can break harder material. I gave you a link to a video where a guy breaks a steel wrench with his own hands. I suggested you try breaking the highest note guitar string by stretching it with an aluminum knife, it will break, I have broken many guitar strings without trying to break them. Throw a baseball to a window, it often breaks. So, it is totally idiotic to keep on insisting that softer material cannot break harder material. Of course it can, it depends on the pressure it gives. Especially, steel bends only to some point and then it breaks. Any softer material can bend steel, you can try to bend steel with your bare hands (if the steel object is not too thick), it will break when it bends too much.

    "Finally, If aluminum really could penetrate steel, there would be aluminum bullets and aluminum anti-tank rounds, so no wonder you try to change the subject to the smoke, but maybe you should now find some sideshow strongman to break Occam’s Razor with his bare hands. "

    So, as the Polish guy in the video that I sent to you did break a steel wrench with his bare hands, it follows that there must be bullets and anti-tank rounds made out of Polish guys? Is this your logic?

    No, there are no, and there are no bullets and anti-tank rounds made out of aluminum because in order to aluminum to break steel, the cross section of aluminum that hits steel must be very large. If the cross section is small, like in a bullet, the soft bullet spreads over a larger area. The material still has momentum towards the target, but as the area is larger, pressure (force/area) is smaller and the bullet does not penetrate.

    But consider what happens if the cross section is large, let's say, circular like the cross section of a bullet. From the circumsphere of this circle aluminum matter can spread outwards, so in the circumsphere pressure can decrease by softer matter spreading. But how about the area near the center of the circle? It does not have time to go to the circumsphere, the impact time is too short. It cannot escape anywhere, where-ever it goes, it is still in the original area of impact. The pressure does not decrease significantly by softer matter spreading.

    You can prove this easily. Take a toothpick and try to punch a hole in the tin chassis of your car. The toothpick spreads, pressure decreases and the toothpick does not do any damage to the tin. But take a sack with some 50 kg of these toothpicks and smash the car hard with the sack. You will get some tin damage. Why would there be any difference if the hitting mass is large or small, if all that matters is hardness of materials?

    About your video analysis, many or all videos can be fake. There are many fake things in this 9/11 case. Like, did the passport of a terrorist really fall from the plane to the street? I am not saying that all proposed evidence is authentic, much is fake. But the job of an investigator of what really happened is to find hard evidence from this mess of real and fake pieces of information.

    But first of all: explain what burned in the fireball and smoke that came in seconds.

    the trajectory of Jewish and Zionist influence at the top of the American government has been steadily and even rapidly increasing over the last quarter century. This may have been an important factor in the transformation of the USA of a generation or two ago into what might be best described as the USSA of today.
     
    The majority of Americans are aware of this trend (to some extent) although they are hesitant to talk about it. Perhaps America's defeat in the Gulf will change that, but I doubt it.

    This article seems to connect the dots between zionist influence and the shocking increase in police state behavior including armed thugs detaining and deporting dissidents, or even critics of Israel.

    The Zionist controlled Republican party is likely to do poorly in the upcoming midterms. They are not going to listen to what conservative podcaster Matt Walsh said on X on August 3: "Grocery prices are insane. They're still rising. Addressing this problem should be the number one priority of every elected leader. End the stupid foreign wars and focus on this issue. It's one of the main reasons socialists are gaining power."

    As a seventy year, I have seen the Republicans lose elections multiple times because they appeared to be overly interested in foreign wars rather than prosperity for the average American. In 1964 Goldwater called Johnson an isolationist and appeared to many people to want to start a nuclear war. This helped the leftist Johnson to win.

    In his term in office, the first Bush focused on a major Middle East war. Advised by James "it's the economy, stupid" Carville, the leftist Clinton beat Bush in the 1992 election. In 2008, when the public was starting to view a second major Middle East war as a mistake, the Republicans ran the bellicose warmonger McCain as their candidate and that helped another leftist, Obama, to win. If the Republicans want to win, they need to be the peace and prosperity party.

    Also, Trump must compromise with non-MAGA establishment GOP Senators (e.g. McConnell, Tillis, Cornyn, Cassidy, Murkowski). Things will be better after the midterms, but there will still be obstacles within the party.

    Trump opposes Hamas and their October 7 Genocide Attack. There is no support for Gaza genocide.

    If you want to help save civilians -- Have you called on Islamic nations to accept their coreligionists as refugees? They would be much safer elsewhere, such as Pakistan or Indonesia.

    What would have been your proposed plan for the Hostage Rescue SMO?

    Please explain the better option:

    -- Genocidal Hamas never negotiated in good faith. There was no way to talk them into being reasonable.
    -- Rational observers see that the IDF largely did the best they could. Hamas, and their co-conspirator genocidal UNRWA, built combat facilities in and under civilian infrastructure.

    Trump supports the Board with Peace agreement for Gaza, which requires Hamas to disarm. Has genocidal Hamas disarmed yet? When will they? Never?

    I expect this is another example of bad faith on their side. While parts of the BoP deal sound good, Hamas will prevent it coming to fruition.

    Trump is more like Caesar or Crassus. Caligula and Nero had idiosyncrasies but were not warmongers. Crassus invaded Persia and lost, 40k legionaries died, he ended up as a drinking skull-cup. Caesar assembled 9 legions to invade Persia but was killed 3 days before departure (coincidence? maybe not).

    These Caesar-like characters are common in history. Their modus operandi are noisy promises they have no intention of fulfilling, absurd self-promotion, greed, starting wars. But Trump is only a clown-version of Caesarism, a light-weight poseur. That doesn't mean he couldn't cause huge damage. Trump's lack of gravitas is a reflection on the current state of the Western culture, almost none of is serious any longer.

    Let's enjoy it while we can, but Caligula was probably a harmless odd-ball who stepped on some oligarchs's toes and got bad press. Trump just lost a big war in the most randomly brutal way (killing school kids) and with endless lying.

    Blacks are bad-ass mo-fos when it comes to intimidating Whites whom they know will not defend themselves or each other in a legal system that will frame the White victim as the aggressor. But just the thought of engaging a foe whose hands are not tied by these rules causes them eye-poppin' fear.

  • Let us recall that the author is one of those who approves of the genocide that the Croats committed against the Serbs in WW2. In truth, he is not alone in this, since 100% of Croats, without a single exception, support (or deny) the most monstrous genocide committed in human history. Let us recall in 2-3 sentences.

    Croats are a non-historical people who have never had a state, a history, or a separate language. In WW2, they were part of the Austrian army, which had already committed unimaginable crimes against Serbian civilians, which were documented by the Swiss doctor Archibald Reiss. After losing the war, the Croats begged the Serbs, one of the victorious states (whose breakthrough of the Salonika Front was decisive for the end of the war, which was confirmed by the German Kaiser), to accept them into their state because they knew that if they remained under the Austrians, they would disappear within a generation (which happened, for example, to the Carinthian Slovenes who remained in Austria by plebiscite).

    The Serbs (i.e. the Serbian king) made a cardinal mistake and agreed to accept the Croats and the newly established Yugoslavia, although even foreigners advised him to take only Serbian ethnic territories and to remain a Serbian national state. They were a cancer in the new Yugoslav state. The hatred of the Croats towards the Serbs was incredible and dictated by Vatican support (since the time when the Serbs saved the destruction of Orthodoxy by the Vatican at the Council of Florence).

    Yugoslavia was an integral state, without national provinces. From the first day of WW2, after the Nazi aggression and the formation of the puppet Croatian state, Croats under the instruction of the Vatican and German sponsorship embarked on the most monstrous genocide against Serbs that took place in thousands of locations including the largest extermination camp in Europe, Jasenovac.

    Someone said (I think Janez) that Croats were dissatisfied in 1945 because of the victory of communism. Quite the opposite. The communist leadership was made into a Comintern by Tito and the Croats/Slovenes (actually crypto Jews, Bakarić and Kardelj). They shot (over 200K) Serbs and behaved as if they were an occupied territory. Under the pretext of Stalin’s aggression after 1948, they moved many factories and entire industries from Serbia to Croatia which were never returned.

    [MORE]

    Also, throughout the post-war period, Yugoslavia was governed by a Croatian-Slovenian communist set that arbitrarily defined internal national borders, divided Serbian territories, gave the Croatians the Adriatic coast, leaving Serbia landlocked, strictly controlled the prices of agricultural products coming from Serbia and in Croatia and Slovenia they forced high-tech plants for export, favored their republics with monetary policy (all prime ministers were Croats and Slovenes or members of Muslims, Montenegrins and Macedonians with whom they created an anti-Serbian coalition and voting machine).

    Serbian agriculture built the entire Croatian Adriatic hotels and tourism. They often changed the Constitution and worsened and divided the Serbian people so that they were a minority in almost all units. When the Serbs first raised their voice against their colonial position (Slobodan Milosevic) they declared separation from Yugoslavia and took away Serbian ethnic territories, although they entered Yugoslavia without any territories.

    They started the wars in the 90s, using the opportunity to expel the remnants of the Serbian people who did not die in 1941 from communist Croatia, so that now they are a negligible percentage. It should be noted that 130-140 years ago Serbs were the majority within the borders of today’s Croatia, and now they are almost gone.

    Traditionally, Croatia was what you can see from the hills near Zagreb (about 50 km in diameter) but the communists annexed many purely Serbian ethnic regions. By the way, during WW2, the communists were in a secret coalition with the Ustashi against the Serbs and the legal Yugoslav royal army. Although there are almost no Serbs in Croatia, Croatian hatred seems to have never been greater.

    We often have authors and commentators here who support the Ustasha and their genocide, while the voice of truth has difficulty reaching readers around the world who are left to mainstream falsifications and propaganda like the one that led to the bombing of Serbia in 1999.
    So, now we have this article.

  • I apologize for hurling at you my Hebrew invective. I haven’t used that expression in 20 years since I left the unholy land.

    Don’t sweat it, Menachem.

    But thank you for so saying. Much appreciated.

    Haym Salomon loaned money to James Madison, James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson, Edmund Randolph, and James Wilson. These loans were directly out of his own pocket to cover their everyday living costs so they didn’t have to abandon their posts and go home. Technically, they were personal loans, the debt of which Salomon effectively gifted or chose not to enforce. As such, they were never legal liabilities of the United States federal government.

    Yet on conducting further research, it appears he did back government debt using his own personal signature and credit, guaranteeing that if the government failed to pay, he would. He also provided emergency war funding.

    However, the hundreds of thousands of dollars in government paper certificates and IOUs Salomon held became virtually worthless after the war due to hyperinflation. When he died in 1785, his estate held stacks of these depreciated government paper assets. Later claims by his family focused on asking Congress to redeem those notes at face value, but Congress treated them like all other war-era paper debt, which had collapsed in value. As such, the issue of non-repayment came down to currency devaluation rather than an unpaid cash contract.

    As such, I don’t see any merit to the theory that Salomon was some kind of proxy for massive, unpayable debt to Israel.

    Do you have any empathy for the Jews Hitler forced to move to Palestine under the Transfer Agreement? What should they have done if not go there? What should they do today?

    I have empathy for anyone who’s compelled to flee their home through no fault of their own, but you should know that their immigration to Palestine was merely adding fuel to the fire, particularly given the injustices visited upon indigenous Palestinians for over half a century beforehand. I don’t particularly care to entertain counterfactual ideas about what might have been best, but in retrospect, it obviously wasn’t a good idea — hindsight being 20/20 and all.

    If Jews want to redeem themselves, they should begin by returning to an ontology that conceives of God as The One responsible for the existence and goodness reflected in all humankind, not just their own. It’s okay for any religious adherent to affirm the superiority of his faith, so long as this affirmation does not also impinge upon baseline, inviolable rights of others not subscribing to it. This is where most of today’s Jews have gone astray. Begin there, and the rest will follow.

    As for Europe, I’m informed of it simply through what I read, watch, and listen to. (Thanks for the Ludvig Van, BTW. 🕶️)

    I think the agony and travail in Palestine and throughout the Middle East is Hitler’s revenge and last laugh since it very much emanates from his policies.

    I’m more inclined to agree with our illustrious web host when he avers that Nazism is ‘Judaism for wimps’, though as I mentioned earlier to Iris, I let others define their faith for me, then judge that explanation against the ensuing evidence. It usually works better for me than pretending I’m omniscient. 🕶️

    “Darwin implies one objectively and universally binding principle: ‘Thou shalt evolve,’ or, at the very least, ‘Thou shalt not interfere with evolution.’”

    Perhaps we have some common ground here. If the statement is true, it effectively undermines those who criticize “Jewish political and intellectual movements” on evolutionary grounds. If those movements are “evolving,” then, under that logic, one should not interfere with that evolutionary process. To condemn such movements would therefore amount to a form of interference—and, by the same reasoning, a contradiction.

    MacDonald’s use of terms such as “group evolutionary strategy” does not address the fundamental question. The deeper issue is what happens when a system denies objective morality or practical reason. Such a system will either reproduce moral principles in some form or eventually collapse under its own philosophical contradictions.

    For example, consider Michael Ruse’s article, “God Is Dead. Long Live Morality.” https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/belief/2010/mar/15/morality-evolution-philosophy

    “In the quote you offered previously, concerning the human practice of caring for the weak (imbeciles, etc.) Darwin condemned such practice as ‘injurious to the race of man,’ because it enabled ‘weak members of civilised societies [to] propagate their kind.’ Is this not a moral judgment?”

    It is a moral judgment, but not an objectively binding one. Rather, it is a subjective judgment that virtually anyone can invoke for political purposes. In Kantian terms, for a moral principle to be objectively binding, it must be capable of being universalized. For example, torturing or raping children is universally wrong, even though some individuals may claim that such acts are permissible.

    “To oppose deception, one needn’t claim that it’s ‘objectively wrong.’”

    Yes, it must be objectively wrong; otherwise, it is merely a matter of subjective opinion, and your judgment is no more valid than that of someone who reaches the opposite conclusion. If there is no objective moral standard, on what basis can you condemn figures such as Trotsky or Benjamin Netanyahu?

    “That would justify his opposition on evolutionary grounds, right?”

    No, evolution does not provide a mechanism that says an idea is deceptive and is therefore wrong and should not be practiced. Evolution asks a fundamentally different question: Is the behavior advantageous to the survival of the group? If deception has contributed to the survival of “Jewish political and intellectual movements” for centuries, on what evolutionary grounds can you condemn it? I have already given you Darwin’s own words on this point.

    “The only philosophical basis I can think of, on which a Darwinist can write books attempting to persuade other people to regard such conduct as wrong, is if he is proselytizing people to his cause…”

    Again, the Darwinist must assume that his own position is correct and that the person he is criticizing is wrong. But the moment you invoke categories such as “right” and “wrong,” you have entered the realm of morality. And once you make moral judgments, you face the question of whether those judgments are objectively binding.

    This is where the Darwinian paradigm faces a fundamental philosophical problem. If morality is merely the product of evolutionary pressures, rather than an objective standard, then it becomes difficult to explain on what basis one can condemn another person’s beliefs or behavior as genuinely wrong. The system therefore risks becoming metaphysically incoherent: it relies on moral judgments while denying the objective moral foundation that would make those judgments binding.

    “Even though he decried human practices which interfered with the evolutionary process?”

    Just because he condemned certain human practices does not mean that he solved the underlying philosophical problem. In fact, his position made the problem even more incoherent.

    “Why is that not acceptable to you? It gives a rationale for his condemnation which is entirely in keeping with evolutionary theory.”

    Read the entire debate. It’s quite long.

    “I don’t see it as a problem at all. From an evolutionary perspective, it is not MacDonald’s responsibility to consider the interests of anyone but himself.”

    You don’t see it as a problem? Think a little more deeply about it, my man.

    “Their wiles are condemnable, not in any traditional moral sense, but because they interfere with my evolutionary interests and those of my group.”

    You are just making my point: it is survival of the fittest, which MacDonald himself acknowledged. If that is the case, then “Jewish political and intellectual movements” have been doing very well by that standard. They have survived and, by that evolutionary measure, succeeded. So on what basis can you condemn them?

    “I don’t believe there’s any reason for Jews to abandon their political and intellectual movements.”

    Honestly, are you serious? Are you saying there is no reason to condemn Netanyahu’s treatment of the Palestinians, Freud’s stated ambition to bring “the plague” to the West, or Trotsky’s participation in one of the bloodiest revolutionary movements in history? If you truly believe there is no moral basis for condemning such actions, then why have we spent so much time discussing these issues?

    “I believe it’s cyclical. MacDonald describes the process by which Jewish culture imprints itself onto the group’s genome, which passes on traits and characteristics amenable to said culture, which further imprints on the genome. . . etc., etc., etc.”

    Can you flesh out what you mean by “cyclical”? Do you mean genetic or not? Yes, this discussion has gone on for a while, but I have already written extensively about the problems with treating behavior as genetic. Again, see my article on Wilhelm Marr, and perhaps you can comment on it.

    In any case, I need to wrap things up here, since I have other commitments. Again, I appreciate the exchange.

    Thanks for the thorough explanation. I don't really care very much about the Haym Salomon story. I just thought that perhaps it might provide some metaphysical rationale for America's massive subsidization of Israel.

    This is very well stated and inspiring:

    If Jews want to redeem themselves, they should begin by returning to an ontology that conceives of God as The One responsible for the existence and goodness reflected in all humankind, not just their own.

    Jewish supremacism is frankly disgusting. Even if a person really thinks he's superior, rubbing it into other people's faces is guaranteed to provoke violent hatred and disdain. It's a totally self-defeating and immature behavior.

    I've never particularly liked Jewish people or Jewish culture. When my parents sent me to Hebrew school when I was maybe 8 years old I cried the whole first week. I had little to do with Jewish students in my schools and almost nothing to do with the local synagogue Jewish summer camps and things like that. I don't know how I was bit by the Zionist bug in college. It's a long story but a diversion I don't want to go into now. But it was very atypical because my parents never talked about Israel and were very cosmopolitan. The very kind of German Jews that Hitler vilified to their great bewilderment.

    Most of my friends in high school were the product of a mixed marriage between a Jewish professor father and a Christian mother. I had one pure Jewish friend and that friendship did not last. When I went to college and came face to face with the noxious northeastern Jews of New York New England and so forth I totally freaked out. I could not bear their rancid personalities their insecurity their constantly projecting their own flaws unto others. I actually thought that the Israelis were a step up because they had a lot of self-confidence and bravado and did not have that obnoxious victimhood mentality of American Jews especially from New York.

    I'm glad you liked the Beethoven clip. I've watched that particular performance probably 20 times. It's one of the most inspiring things I have ever seen. It's the confluence of cultures that overwhelms me. The conductor is an Argentinian Jew who told Israel to phuk off when they tried to stop him from performing Wagner. The orchestra consists of Palestinian and Israeli musicians. The choir is English. The four soloists are a Russisn and German Jew and two German Christians. It's performed in London and the composer is the great German Beethoven. This performance represents to me the best of humanity working together to produce something of epic beauty. I give Barenboim a lot of credit for transcending Jewish particularism and drawing the best out of a diverse group of people. I suspect Netanyahu loathes Daniel Barenboim because he proves that Palestinians are as talented and accomplished as Israelis and that they can work together harmoniously. And that's because Barenboim treats them with dignity and respect.

    I've often told my Christian friends that the only person I want to meet in heaven is Beethoven. They're shocked and and say "What about Jesus? What about Peter and Paul?" I say I don't want to meet any of those religious extremists. I love Beethoven because he gave his beautiful gift of music to the entire world to make people feel good. He doesn't judge he doesn't condemn he doesn't instruct indoctrinate control or manipulate. He simply provides the incredible gift of his beautiful music. And it's even more extraordinary because he became completely deaf. That Ninth Symphony is a total gift to humanity from which he derived zero personal pleasure. This to me is the ultimate act of selfless altruism. I would say it's comparable to Christ dying on the cross for the sake of humanity.

    This is a movie depiction of Beethoven conducting the premier performance of the symphony. He enters a reverie which is their way of explaining why he kept conducting after the orchestra finished because he was daydreaming about his youth. The movie claims that Beethoven's deafness was the result of his father beating him with an iron poker whenever he performed poorly. In the scene Beethoven fantasizes escaping from his father's wrath. It's very powerful:
    https://youtu.be/7qWbcosJdtU

    Apparently there's a tradition in Japan of performing Beethoven's Ninth every New Year's. This is a clip of a chorus of 10,000 voices in the performance. The soloists have perfect German accents and whenever I watch this I wonder what the world would be like had Germany and Japan prevailed in world War ii. I think we would be living in a much more dignified and cultured place than the sewer America has unleashed on the rest of the world. Check out the top comment that gives some background to how Beethoven came to be so revered in Japan:

    After 20 largely unhappy years in the United States I can summarize this sick and vile society thus:

    Americans are spiritually and intellectually shallow. The society is a cultural wasteland. Christians are total narcissists constantly begging God's affirming love and blessings without ever being willing to stand up for his truth. The capital is far away from most of the population. The government is totally unaccountable to the people. It engages in depraved and violent conflicts all across the globe of which Americans are largely blissfully unaware. However I believe the bad karma from these evil actions poisons society back home.

    America is a stratified society consisting of a small elite of unfathomably rich and powerful Jews and Christians while the rest of the country are basically debt slaves to the international banking system. These elites are ransacking all of our national resources and destroying our society in their zeal to prop up their Jewish-proxy end times Christian Crusader State in the Middle East. They are like sharks in a feeding frenzy. The more the country sinks into ruin the more they try to steal the national resources for this pathetic experiment in racial engineering.

    There is no truth in the American church. The average American is a coward and a wimp, totally unable to stand up courageously for anything. Americans are heavily armed with billions of rounds of ammunition claiming it's to preserve our freedoms. But the only freedom these gun owners will fight for is the freedom to buy more guns and ammunition and waste their time at the range practicing.

    America needs to be subdued from without. Many of us hoped that Putin's Russia would deal us a humbling blow but that does not seem in the offing either. Putin sat in Syria for 10 years with the Russian military and turned a blind eye to Israel's almost daily bombing runs over that country.

    I don't know what the answer is but no one should look to America for leadership courage vision or sacrifice. America will sacrifice the whole world for its narrow short-sighted selfish greedy goals.

    Americans are like pigs rolling in the mud of Gaza and slopping up from the trough of Christian Zionist propaganda and Jew-infatuation.

    The Iranians were right all along when they spoke of the Big Satan and the little satan. Uncle Sam Big Satan and bibi little satan.

     

    NB In my town in Colorado there is something called The House of Prayer, which is a church that was purchased and converted into a worship center. Every day from 12-4pm it's open for people to come sit in the pews pray meditate contemplate or whatever. There are people there who can pray with you if you wish. Each hour on the hour there is a different Christian worship leader who performs soft guitar music and sings Christian songs quietly to create a contemplative atmosphere. I've gone there a couple of times and I've never seen more than two or three people sitting in the pews. They don't seem very prayerful either. They're sitting there like they're watching a musical performance. And it struck me that this place is a perfect metaphor for America. Something that looks big and impressive on the outside but inside it's completely empty and devoid of meaning. There's also a Christian coffee shop in the basement of the building. Nicely appointed with comfortable seats. The coffee is free in exchange for a donation. They have a lending library with 50 page pamphlets explaining why evolution is a lie and other such forms of enlightened thinking.

    No way! You mean that the police don’t send the homeless packing when foreigners show up with their entourage of handlers? LOL!!

    or that those foreigners don’t get routed to homeless free zones by their entourage? LOL!!!

    I have not seen your video; I absolutely refuse to give a click to what is probably fake news (many Taiwanese propagandists try to pass off scenes of utter despair from the capitalist utopia of Taiwan as being from mainland China).

    https://www.visiontimes.com/2026/03/08/homelessness-soars-in-china-as-economic-collapse-leaves-50-million-people-without-shelter.html

    China’s prolonged economic decline has produced a homelessness crisis on a scale the CCP can no longer hide. Government data published by the financial outlet Caixin in September 2025 revealed that approximately 47.5 million people in China are homeless, a more than fivefold increase from 2020.

    That number will go up as Chinkland’s real estate crash continues, and a larger and larger number of people are unable or unwilling to pay to maintain their buildings. For instance broken elevators will certainly make anything over the 10th floor uninhabitable as will broken water and sewer lines.

    Literal shit seeping into your buildings walls can’t be good. ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

    According to some reports over 100 million Chinklanders are underwater on their mortgaged property. LOL!!

    The founder (and still the publisher) of Caixin is from Stanfard University, California, USA (link) and is almost certainly a part of the US's propaganda apparatus.

    You mean that the police [in China] don’t send the homeless packing when foreigners show up with their entourage of handlers?
     
    China received 150 million tourists in 2025 (link). The country has nowhere near enough police to supervise them all, even if there is an intent to supervise them (there isn't). Do the tourists' videos show homeless people? No.

    The harder the Chinklander economy is failing, the more desperate the anti-US propaganda.
     
    As you are from Stinkia**, you have no idea what a prosperous economy looks like. (Hint: it has no homeless people; the USA has a million of these, and Stinkia has too many to count.)

  • Excellent analysis. Particularly the analogy to the nuclear waste normally benign, if frequently noxious, but getting off in a big kaboom of a nuclear bomb “if they whip each other into a collective frenzy”.

    Here is the first tick of that for your consideration.

    NVDA just whipped the Goldman into raising at least $500bln to guarantee continual investment in the computational AI, primarily, of course, the God-send computers that NVDA produces and seeks to place in hundreds of data centers across the world. Money will be poached worldwaide from various sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, and insurance firms, all looking for guaranteed monthly returns.

    The word “worldwide” is particularly offensive here, because it carries the same load of stench that the invention of the Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (RMBS) brought upon many sovereign nations, who accepted RMBS as “guaranteed monthly income”. The losses by the European CB, The City, et al. had to covered by the FED. What the people got out of this was a nuclear kaboom of galloping consumer inflation, and the frantic national debt hyperinflation.

    When the shit hits the fan in due time, just as the RMBS shit did, when it becomes patently obvious that nobody needs that much computational power and data centers, US will be totally extinguished from the international map, and sold off piece by piece into the Chinese and Russian investment funds.

This is the description:

    Hormuzgan does not just sit next to the Strait of Hormuz—it actually encompasses it. The northern coastline of the strait is part of Hormozgan Province, meaning the distance from the province to the strait is 0 km (0 miles) as they directly overlap and share a border.

    People interested in history should perhaps turn their attention to the degree to which Germany’s participation in the First World War was motivated by ethnic animus of a faction of the Social Democratic Party towards the Russian government on account of the events such as those in Odessa in 1905.
     
    Sure, I've always felt that the heavy Jewish influence among the German Socialists was an important part of the reason that they became enthusiastic supporters of the First World War against Russia even though everyone had always expected them to be totally opposed to any military conflict.

    Obviously, there are many other factors, notably the great concerns of the German military about Russia's very rapidly growing population and industrial power, with fears that it would soon become too strong for Germany to ever face, especially given its ongoing military reform efforts. But the bitter hostility of Germany's very influential and socialistic Jews towards Russia was probably a major factor.

    Iran Demanded Compensation From the US — Trump Immediately Turned the Tables

     

    Iran has a long and storied history of making absurd demands while ignoring its own track record, and this week was no different. After months of conflict, Iranian officials decided the United States should compensate them for damages tied to the war.
    ...

    The President was having none of the silly demand from the rogue regime and responded in kind on Truth Social. Iranian officials probably should have thought better before demanding compensation from anybody.

    "It is an interesting idea because now I am likewise demanding compensation from Iran, for all of the people that they have killed and gravely wounded with their roadside bombs and many conflicts," Trump countered.

    He went on to mention the USS Cole bombing from nearly 26 years ago and suggested compensation to America should include consideration of "thousands of others killed in combat."

    "Additionally, compensation should be paid to the families of the hundreds of thousands of innocent protestors that Iran has killed over the last 50 years, not to mention the 52,000 that have been killed in the last five months," he added.

    Trump said he has instructed his representatives to include the compensation demand into "any, and all, future negotiations."
    ...

    As RedState's Ward Clark writes, President Trump agreeing to provide compensation to Iran post-war is as likely as "domestic swine take unaided to the skies."

    • Iran will lose massive amounts of leverage by then. (1)

    Secretary Bessent Outlines Reality of Capital Markets Making the Strait of Hormuz Irrelevant

     

    Even if Iran completely acquiesced to all of the most stringent terms and conditions requested by President Trump, they will never again recapture the position they held with the Strait of Hormuz as a chokepoint.

    Capital markets respond to risk in the medium and long term; risks are always mitigated. With the Strait now identified as a strategic risk, the emphasis will be on forever neutralizing that risk and avoiding the issue in the future. As a consequence, Iran’s strongest point of leverage is disappearing now and will continue to disappear.

    As further explained by James Thorne on X: “By repeatedly signaling its willingness to disrupt the Strait of Hormuz, Tehran hasn’t strengthened its hand, it has accelerated the market’s exit. Capital does not tolerate chokepoints; it routes around them.

    Saudi Arabia is expanding its East-West pipeline. The UAE has already built out Fujairah as a bypass. Iraq is revisiting overland export corridors. Every marginal dollar now flows toward redundancy, not reliance. What was once a geopolitical lever is being engineered into irrelevance. Bessent gets it: markets don’t absorb coercion; they arbitrage it away.

    Energy markets are not static, and they are not sentimental. The shale revolution already diluted OPEC’s grip. LNG has globalized gas. Now infrastructure is doing the same to maritime risk. Once these pipelines are built, they don’t get unbuilt. Volume shifts become permanent. Pricing power follows.

    Tehran’s miscalculation is classic: overplay a scarce asset, and the world invests to make it abundant. The more Iran rattles Hormuz, the faster it erodes the very leverage it seeks to exploit.

    In the end, this is not deterrence. Its substitution and substitution, once funded, is irreversible. Iran is underwriting its own marginalization."
     
    A 40-year generational problem is being resolved forever!

     

    Kuwait is taking about plugging into Iraqi and/or Saudi networks.

    The Trans-Arabian Pipeline (Tapline) oil export route through Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon could be brought back.

    What we have here is a definitional problem. Since as we've both previously agreed, no single "real" Christianity exists, there's no objective standard to which to compare Hitler's beliefs and determine if he's "really" a Christian or not. For anyone who wants to argue that he wasn't, his public declaration of being a Christian, refusal to exit the Church, and his continued respect for, and his seeming identification with the Jesus figure as recounted in the Bible (why else insist that he was an Aryan?), presents an obstacle. Then too, there's his (half-hearted, it seems to me) backing of "positive Christianity" for the German people. But if Hitler actually regarded himself as a Christian, it was certainly a sui generis Christianity. About the only thing he considers admirable about Jesus is his (as he sees it) hatred of Jews. He seems to regard everything else connected to a more conventional view of that religion and its eponymous founder as corruptions introduced by Paul.

    In other respects, Hitler's view of religion resembles William Pierce's cosmotheism. While disdaining atheism, Hitler seems entirely at peace with the idea that science will one day finish off Christianity for good.

    The Federal Reserve must defend the U.S. dollar and raise interest rates to prevent a catastrophic spiral of hyperinflation and safeguard the global financial system.“Yukon Jack” is a well-known macroeconomics commentator and writer who frequently discusses monetary policy, the gold standard, and hyperinflation. In financial discourse, his phrase “interest rates to the moon” describes an aggressive, rapid escalation of borrowing costs. This concept directly pairs with the “Volcker pivot,” an historical blueprint for crushing rampant economic inflation.

    Understanding the Financial Concepts

    1. Yukon Jack’s “Interest Rates to the Moon”Definition: A scenario where a central bank forces interest rates to extraordinarily high levels to halt currency devaluation.

    The Mechanism: When money printing expands the money supply too quickly, the value of the currency plummets.

    The Remedy: The only way to stop capital flight and structural inflation is to raise nominal interest rates dramatically, making it highly lucrative to hold that currency again.

Any attempt to restort to the printing press like Zimbabwe would instantly cause capital flight, rising yields which crushes the economy. This in fact is already happening, interest rates are going up as capital flees USDollars, as confidence is lost.

    Image

    Why the Fed Must Defend the Dollar and Raise Rates

    The Federal Reserve is forced into an aggressive tightening cycle due to several critical structural demands

    Global Reserve Currency Status

    Maintaining Trust: The U.S. dollar underpins the global financial architecture. If global markets lose faith in the dollar’s purchasing power, foreign central banks will dump their U.S. Treasury debt.

    Defending Petro-Dominance: If the dollar collapses, commodities like oil will cease to be priced in USD, dealing a devastating blow to American economic dominance.Halt the Domestic Inflationary Spiral

    Breaking Expectations: When businesses and consumers expect prices to rise indefinitely, it creates a self-fulfilling loop of wage-price increases.

    Suppressing Demand: Raising rates cools the economy by making borrowing expensive, intentionally slowing down consumer spending and corporate expansion to let supply chains catch up.

    Stop Capital Flight

    Attracting Capital: Capital naturally flows toward safety and yield. If the real yield (nominal interest rate minus inflation) on the dollar is negative, investors will flee to tangible assets like gold, real estate, or foreign currencies.

    Stabilizing the Exchange Rate: Higher interest rates entice global asset managers to buy dollars to invest in U.S. fixed-income markets, structurally strengthening the currency’s value.

    You see, Croats openly admit that Nazi Germany losing WWII was a catastrophe for them, without any fear of being labelled as Nazis by the media.

    You should not be whining too much though, as you were neither properly persecuted nor properly punished for your Magnum Crimen [1][2] – the main one being the Vatican’s Holocaust – genocide you committed against Orthodox Christian Serbs in WWII along with Vatican’s clergy and Bosnian Muslims. Pope Pius XII gave the blessing for it!

    E.g. Croatia’s Hitler, Ante Pavelic, hid in Vatican until the dust settled, and eloped through Vatican’s so called ‘Rat Channels’ to Argentina (1948) and died in Spain (1959) never facing any charges.

    The Magnum Crimen is a book about Croatian clericalism from the end of 19th century until the end of the Second World War. The book, whose full title is Magnum crimen – The Great Crime – a half-century of clericalism in Croatia, was written by a former Catholic priest and professor and historian at Belgrade University, Viktor Novak (1889–1977). The book was first published in Zagreb in 1948. Immediately after the book was published, the Vatican Curia placed this book on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum and pronounced anathema against the author.

    More arrogant fiction from Contemporary Catholic Nazi Croatia (ethnically cleansed, <5% non-Croats)?

    There was never any braggadocio from Orthodox Christian Serbs about anything, but there is constant being-proud-Nazi braggadocio in Croatia because the West tolerates and hides it as you are their useful idiots. Even Nazi Croatia's invasion of Bosnia (UN recognized in 1992) in 1995 was swept under the carpet, never reported in the media and completely concealed.

    As a matter of fact, all those so called "victims" from 90s just "happen" to be WW2 partners of Nazi Germany: Bosnian/Balkan Muslims (aka Bosniaks), Catholic Croats, primitive Muslim Albanians aka "Kosovars", and Catholic Slovenians, while the “oppressors” and “aggressors” were Serbs that fought against Nazis.

    Re Croatia Nazi braggadocio:

    More than 500,000 (half a million) Croats attended mega Nazi Croatian rock star Thomson concert in 2025 [1][3].

    Total population of Croatia in 2025 was 3.874 million (Eurostat), so 13% (thirteen) of the country's entire population attended that Nazi-themed concert! That's a world record in Nazi devotion!

    Below are the pictures from Thomson's 2007 concert [3][4]. As you know, his lyrics openly praise mass murder of Orthodox Christian Serbs and advocate attack on Serbia!

    Of course, Croats are not worried though as neither Western MSM nor Putin / Russian MSM will report on Croatia being one proud Nazi country - they all protect murderers of Serbs! That is why Croats can proudly display their Nazi past and present [2] with no fear of consequences.

    The contemporary Soviet Union that Smith and others sketched out seemed a grim and gray place, dull and uninspiring rather than dangerous, and best exemplified by its elderly and doddering General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev and his equally decrepit Politburo colleagues.
     
    Short note:

    I know many Russians of 40-70 yr old. I've characterized the fall of the Soviet system in these pages as: for want of toilet paper.

    However, all the Russians I've met describe very happy childhoods. They said during summer, school breaks and on weekends they went out of their house in the morning and returned house late in the afternoon, playing safely with friends all day, and in the southern republics, eating good fruit to keep on playing.

    So your characterization of the Soviet Union as a "gray place, dull and uninspiring" doesn't seem correct at least for Soviet children.

    In general, characterizing the Soviet system as dull, uninspiring, seems a bit, only a bit, narrow-minded.

    I guess in every system there are ways to go up for enterprising, smart and ambitious people. Even in very poor and communist Cuba, ambitious individuals can be inspired by a career in the Party.

    These systems fail not because they are dull and uninspiring for ambitious individuals. They fail because they don't deliver to the masses of ordinary individuals.

    The Soviet system also produced very advanced technology and science and a high level of education of the populace.

    In a sense, the Soviet system worked as laying the foundations for the building of a free and prosperous, capitalist system, which is what's happening right now.

    "During the Stalinist era, the dictator’s most powerful lieutenant was Lazar Kaganovich, who was Jewish, as was Maxim Litvinov, who served as foreign minister throughout nearly all of the 1930s. Stalin’s first NKVD chief Genrikh Yagoda was Jewish as was the wife of Nikolai Yezhov, the man who replaced him. Also Jewish was Lev Mekhlis, the top Soviet military commissar during World War II"

    - Just in case of further interest to anyone:

    A) Not only was Lazar Kaganovich Stalin`s deputy in the mid 1930`s, but furthermore all of Lazar`s four brother also were part of the Bolshevik party and 3 of them (Mikhail, Israel, Yuli) gained leading functionary positions within (Head of Aviation/Defense Industrie/ Meat-Dairy Industries).

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazar_Kaganovich#%22Iron_Lazar%22

    B) The second/third most powerful person in that Stalin government during the 30`s was Vyacheslav Molotov who was married to the highest ranking female Soviet politician of the time (first ever Narkom-member) and during the entire period from 1918 until 1932 Stalin and his wife shared adjacent Kremlin apartments within the Kremlin living quarters with the Molotovs, usually dining and their children playing together daily.

    Molotovs wife was Jewish Perl Salomonova (and thus by Jewish law so were their 2 children), later a close friend and interpreter for Golda Meir:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polina_Zhemchuzhina

    C) Regarding the overrepresentation of Jews among the top ambassadors of that lead-up to WW2 era, we have interestingly Molotov`s own words on record ( late-life interviews with Felix Chuev "Molotov Remembers"):

    Regarding the Need for a "Clean Sweep" of the Ministry Molotov explicitly recalled that when he took over the Commissariat of Foreign Affairs, Joseph Stalin ordered him to purge the ministry. Regarding Litvinov's identity and the heavy concentration of Jewish officials in the diplomatic corps, Molotov remarked:

    "Thank God for these words! Jews formed an absolute majority in the leadership and among the ambassadors. It wasn't good."

    Not only proven by the fact that Litvinov was the most powerful person of the entire Soviet Union regarding foreign affairs, but that fascinatingly ALL Soviet Ambassadors to the Major European Powers (England, France and -ironically- Nazi-Germany...) at the time were Jewish:

    France:

    Valerian Dovgalevsky (Served 1927–1934): Born to Jewish parents in Ukraine, he served in Paris until his death from a heart attack in 1934.Jakob Suritz (Served 1937–1940): After his deployment in Germany, Suritz was reassigned to Paris

    England:

    Ivan Maisky (Served 1932–1943): Born Jan Lachowiecki to a Polish-Jewish father (who later converted to Orthodoxy), Maisky was one of the Soviet Union's most famous and longest-serving diplomats.

    Nazi- Germany:

    Lev Khinchuk (Served 1930–1934): Born to a Jewish family, he served as the Soviet representative in Berlin during Hitler’s rise to power before being recalled to Moscow.Jakob Suritz (Served 1934–1937): Born to a Jewish family in Dvinsk, he had a notoriously difficult assignment as a Jewish diplomat presenting credentials directly to Adolf Hitler

    D) Furthermore interesting that not only was the highest ranking female politician of the time, Molotov`s mentioned wife, Jewish, but so was the second highest ranking and (by Stalin) most decorated second highest (none other than the notorious former "Butcheress of Crimea", nicknamed "Demon"):

    “The largest wave of political demonstrations on American college campuses since the 1960s took place in 2024 but was swiftly crushed and suppressed by an unprecedented government crackdown, harsher than anything ever previously seen in American history”.

    I think this may be an overstatement, bearing in mind the many occasions in the 19th and early 20th century when numbers of demonstrating workers were literally shot dead by soldiers at the behest of their employers.
     
    Sure, that's a fair criticism. I was referring to the government suppression of peaceful demonstrations. Since I've never studied those violent labor battles of more than a century ago, I'd vaguely assumed that there had been a great deal of violence on both sides. But I may have been mistaken.

    One unpleasant but perhaps valid point to be made here is that up until the about the second decade of the Twentieth Century, civil rights, etc were tacitly assumed to be available only to the upper strata of society. You could beat the crap out of some landless laborer, but God help you if you did it to a Harvard fraternity brother without good cause.

    It’s a point made in More Powerful than Dynamite, an account of goings on in New York City in 1915. Suddenly, police discovered they couldn’t just club demonstrating plebians at will.

    He had a reputation for being a lefty, but Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times (1936) almost seems to take it for granted that police beat demonstrators and on occasion kill them, like the father of the "gamin" (Paulette Goddard).
    I am reminded of an investigation of London's Newgate Prison, carried out around 1729. Many inmates were in jail for debt and were cruelly treated by staff. The keeper Thomas Bambridge overstepped the mark when he mistreated a baronet who, though a prisoner, was well-connected. Bambridge's mistake seems to have been to abuse someone who was not of low social standing.

    The point I was making is that the dilemma Darwin described when speaking of our tendency to help the weak (imbeciles, etc) as standing in the way of the evolutionary process isn’t really a dilemma at all. There are ways around it. That these methods are imperfect or susceptible to corruption/misuse is, I believe, beside the point. The imperfections of the solution might require increased diligence in its application, but that is a different point from the one I was making.

    ICE is but a precursor of what Israel has planned for us "goyim".

    It's not about illegal aliens but is about getting the American public used to seeing IDF soldiers on American city streets.

    The IDF and other high-level Israelis already hold key positions within American law enforcement agencies and the USA military.

    We are all Palestinians now…

    All senior federal government law enforcement officials have ties to and owe their allegiance to Israel--not to the USA.

    Until recently, the Department of Homeland Security website listed its location as Tel Aviv, Israel.

    ICE operates under Israeli “rules of engagement”, NOT USA Constitutional principles.

    EVERY federal law enforcement agency has sent trainers on “free” trips to Israel to “see how it’s done”, practicing on Palestinians.

    What we are witnessing in real time in today’s ICE and other law enforcement agencies actions are Israeli military tactics being utilized in real time on American soil.

    One such aspect of israeli control of USA law enforcement is the increasing use of obscuration and outright refusal to display identification.

    ICE agents have not only refused to identify themselves but hide their required identification and utilize face coverings to further prevent themselves from being identified.

    ICE agents operate with impunity, snatching citizens off the street, illegally holding them in detention centers, sometimes for months while refusing to accept valid identification from their victims, the same tactics being used against Palestinians in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank. Habeas corpus, the requirement to present the individual arrested to a court is conveniently absent.

    ICE uses administrative warrants in violation of the Constitution, using them to gain entry to residences—totally unconstitutional. Judicial warrants are required to gain access to a residence.

    ICE is being utilized by our Israeli-controlled federal government to get the citizenry used to seeing masked, unidentifiable, armed military personnel on our streets.

    It’s all by design…

    P. S: Wait till the USA military is fully integrated with Israel’s military forces. The leaders of the USA military will all be Israelis. There will then be no hesitation for the Israeli military embedded within the USA to fire on American citizens.

  • I visited my childhood home two weeks ago. It is in Zunyi, Guizhou Province in Southwest China. I lived there till age 17, when I left for college in Beijing in 1989. My parents retired in 1996 and moved back to the east coast where they came from. I haven’t been back since. Many people,...

    I want you to read an Asian Times article titled "China’s bamboo growth model vs. India’s eucalyptus growth model".
    According to the article, in your WOGland about one third of Pajeet children suffer from severe malnutrition.

    Also as a result of concentrationg on elite education at the expense of mass education that has to do with giving solid basic knowledge to Indian children, instead the misguided WOGland education system has only created some elite engineers most of whom only want to go to the U.S. or Europe while your WOGland is left with a very low-grade workforce that are only good for assembling parts.

    So you dumb FUK, read the article and reflect on yourself before criticizing China.

    You punk must be another Pajeet fag. Read my post again and think about it for a while and find out what's very wrong with your all FUKed-up WOGland.

  • Years ago, Americans and Israelis were called to support the Russian Jews trying to leave the Red Empire. Now it is other way around – a Russian-Israeli journalist was arrested upon his arrival in Tel Aviv Airport. The arrested by Shabak, the Israeli analogue of FBI (or Gestapo) is a really nice guy, Artyom Kirpichonok....
  • “Detention of this kind man, a scholar of very moderate views, show us to what horror Israel is coming, surely it will be a big surprise for those who thought Jews are safe in Israel.”

    I am surprised to hear that there are people who think that Jews are safe in Israel. Jews have been safe from the Zionist murderous intentions, no matter where they reside, only on the condition of supporting the Zionist ideology, or being only silent observers of Zionist crimes due to ignorance. We must erase the idea that Zionists are Jews. Pretending to be a Jewish nation is only a ruse, a Zionist tool in the eventual persecution of anyone who criticizes Israel as antisemitic. Isn’t this clear to anyone who seeks justice without prejudice?

  • Decades ago when I was in college and grad school I had a strong side-interest in the Soviet Union and its history. During those years I may have read as many as one hundred books on those subjects. At that point, my views on most historical matters were almost entirely mainstream and conventional, closely conforming...
  • ‘…”We have the right to make dumb jokes, as long as they don’t cross the line into a true threat,” Morey said…’

    We have the right to make dumb jokes, just so long as we understand that others may not be amused, and will take measures.

    In other words, it’s not a good idea to make dumb jokes. Ironically, if one appreciates the actual reality obtaining at the time, as opposed to the lurid comic-book fantasies that have prevailed ever since, this was about the situation in Hitler’s Germany. Tell a Hitler joke if you want — but you might find yourself facing a humiliating and frightening interview with the Gestapo.

    As our Florida college student is discovering.

    So your characterization of the Soviet Union as a “gray place, dull and uninspiring” doesn’t seem correct at least for Soviet children.
     
    Although I've never been to the Soviet Union or Russia, I've visited three African and six Latin American countries, all of which are known as "developing" or "third-world" countries (i.e. poor).

    In every case, the children I observed from a distance in those countries were visibly happier and definitely more energetic than most children I've seen in developed/first-world countries. This is just anectdotal of course, but my impression has been: the poorer the country, the happier its children.

    (with "happy" vaguely defined as: aimlessly running around, laughing and squealing with delight)

    Yes, but their PISA scores are terrible.
