Good! I approve of that.

One of the things about free speech is that it mean that people you dislike and disagree violently with get to speak. Like this:

Students at Columbia University launch anti-Israel ‘Columbia Intifada’ newspaper: ‘Outrageous’

The post article has more

The hateful group’s four-page spread includes no bylines or any information connecting the articles to their respective authors, nor is there any solicitation for outside perspectives or reactions from readers.

The only words on the front-page masthead is a quote from a poem by woke extremist scholar Sophia Armen, which reads, “You, genocider — who remembers you?”

It almost goes without saying that I disapprove of the opinions of this paper and the people who write and distribute it on campus.

That being said I completely approve of this method of expressing these at best misguided and at worst violently anti-Semitic opinions.

It’s not occupying buildings or disrupting classing or any form of physical violence. It’s expressing their opinion is an open way and a person is not required to own or read said opinion if they don’t want to.

In short it’s making an argument and frankly there is no reason why such a weak argument can’t be countered by people making a counter argument.

By all means feel free to attack the paper and those who write and distribute it but I’m with Sarah Hoyt when she says:

FREE SPEECH INCLUDES THE RIGHT TO PUBLICLY EXPOSE YOURSELVES AS A**HOLES

The 1st Amendment covers everybody. Even A**holes. Full stop.

This assessment of the situation in England is better than anything else I’ve read

Not since 1066 has a government in my land so hated and despised the people it rules, and been so determined to enslave, reduce, deny, exploit and destroy them. What is happening with mass immigration, with unacknowledged but real Muslim conquest, and with erasure from both the history books and the streets, represents a deliberate attempt to expunge a distinct people from the world, to consign them solely to history. And if you don’t believe that is true, visit the parts of Birmingham or London or Bradford where it has already happened, and find me an Englishman there.

There is also an excellent bit of history about the Norman Conquest and its aftermath well worth your time.


The difference between how DA Allen Bragg treats people who are considered a danger to Democrat re-election efforts vs a danger to police or innocent Jews is illustrated here:

James Carlson, who also goes by Cody, burned an Israeli flag, violently stormed Columbia’s Hamilton Hall, clashed with a facilities worker, and allegedly broke a police camera while detained. He was arrested on April 20 on a misdemeanor arson charge and again on April 30, the day that New York City police swept Columbia and cleared Hamilton Hall, for burglary, a felony in New York.

By the time Carlson and other Hamilton Hall arrestees attended their June court hearings, however, the Manhattan district attorney’s office—led by Alvin Bragg—opted to pursue a reduced charge against Carlson: criminal trespassing, a misdemeanor. As a result, Carlson, a trust fund kid who specializes in animal rights law and lists his $2.3 million Brooklyn townhouse on his active New York attorney registration, faces little risk of losing his license.

Via Hotair. Never forget that if Trump was the pre 2015 Trump who was not consider a threat to Democrats holding power his case would never have seen the light of day.


How Bad was the Walz Pick by Kamala Harris, this bad:

Two things to remember about this story:
  1. The Walz pick was the first decision made by Kamala as the Democrat candidate for president.
  2. This is the same media that has done their level best to raise up and protect Harris from the moment Biden was forced out.

Almost more interesting is the media sudden volte face on Hunter Biden.

A CNN panel reacted on Wednesday to the news that Hunter Biden reportedly sought help from the U.S. government for a possibly financially beneficial energy project in Italy while his father was vice president, and said it felt “very strange.” 

“This isn‘t great. Hunter Biden, everybody in the White House has known for a long time, is an issue. The way that his lawyers responded to this disclosure saying, ‘Well, yeah, he sent letters but did nothing wrong.’ This feels very strange to people that the vice president‘s son was sending letters or making requests to other government officials and saying, ‘Hey, would you meet with this company?’,” CNN’s Edward-Isaac Dovere said.

The killer quote however is this:

“One of the other things The New York Times reports here is that this document was suddenly shaken loose from the U.S. bureaucracy of the week that President Biden dropped out of the race,” CNN host Kasie Hunt said. “They claim it’s a coincidence.”

It’s amazing what can happen when an idiot is no longer useful


Math and Logic are important and Stacy McCain notes both with discussing the COVID Vaccines and the death of former Youtube Boss who was in charge when I was kicked off the platform:

My point is that two things can be simultaneously true: (1) the COVID-19 vaccines inflicted no serious harm on the vast majority of patients who got vaccinated against the virus, and (2) there are many thousands of people who suffered serious side effects of the vaccines, including hundreds who died as a result of getting vaccinated. You don’t need any expertise in epidemiology to ujnderstand this; it’s just simple math.

OK, so it is probably just a coincidence that pro-vaccine fanatic Susan Wojcicki died of lung cancer at age 56, a little more than three years after the COVID vaccines became available. For my friend to suggest that it was “turbo cancer” is not justified by any available evidence, and it’s probably impolite even to discuss it.

But is it wrong? Well, I can’t say that for certain, and neither can you. Logic requires that we reserve judgment when encountering the unknown, and mRNA vaccines are so new that potential side effects are definitely in the realm of the unknown.

The math is simple:

If you tell me, for example, that mRNA vaccines have been proven 99.9% safe, what you’re actually telling me is, one in 1,000 patients will suffer serious side effects. And if you’re going to administer such vaccines to many millions of people, simple multiplication tells you that there will be a thousand “bad” cases for every million of patients who get the vaccine.

As far as the death of Ms Wojcicki all I know for sure is she was loved by God and Christ died for her sins along with everyone else’s. I hope and pray that she took advantage of said mercy when offered.

I also know that you should subscribe to Stacy McCain’s substack.

I don’t think I can do better than this speech in explaining what’s wrong with what it going on nationwide:

He rightly asks if any of this would be tolerated if the targets were Muslims and/or a Muslim country.

That this would be the basis for lawsuits goes without saying.

A lot of institutions are risking a lot to try to shore up Michigan for Joe Biden in accordance with the Ghastly Tom Hagen Math and Jewish leftists who enabled them for years are finding out where they stand are discovering the truth of Glenn Reynolds words:

Several generations of Jews thought there was safety in secularism, and shunned Christians. That hasn’t worked out as expected.

Or as I warned back in 2016

If you are a jewish Democrat you might as well get ready to put the yellow star on because like believing Catholics and pro-lifers before you, it might be finally clear to you that unless you know your place you are no longer welcome anymore in today’s Democrat party.

However if there is one thing that human beings have an incredible capacity for, it’s self delusion and for a very long time there will be plenty of Jewish democrats who remain in denial even as their children attending elite colleges find themselves treated as second class citizens if ever and whenever they try to acknowledge and celebrate their Jewish identity and hide it due to fear.  It’s very much like some elderly faithful Catholics who somehow haven’t gotten through their heads that this is not the democrat party of JFK or Tip O’Neill anymore.

The process of discovering reality is going to be very painful for them and some will go to their graves in denial because the truth is too horrible to face.

Sometimes it sucks being right.

On the plus side if you’re a lawyer you are going to clean up big over the next few years with these suits and if you are a Jewish lawyer your victories over those who want to see you dead will be doubly sweet.

I am so glad I wasn’t drinking anything when I read this:

PA leaders are pleased with the anti-Israel protests at American universities but are unwilling to tolerate similar demonstrations at their own universities, fearing that they could be used by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) to create instability and insecurity.

In recent weeks, PA security officers have been removing Hamas flags from electricity poles in villages and towns in the West Bank. PA security forces have also foiled attempts by some students to set up encampments at Palestinian campuses similar to the ones at Columbia University and other campuses in the United States.

So let me get this straight. As far as the Palestinian Authority in the west bank is concerned here in the US it’s perfectly OK to target Jews to tear down the US flag and fly the Palestinian flag instead and to blockade and occupy college buildings, property and even set up checkpoint to restrict people in support of Hamas and to oppose any of that stuff is “islamophobic”

If however you are in lands that are actually controlled by the Palestinian Authority, well we can’t have that since it might help Hamas who they really don’t like much anyways.

Oddly I don’t think I’ve heard a single member of the press or congress who have been defending these “protests” in the US object one bit to their repression by Palestinians in the area where they wish to create a Palestinian state.

Discuss.
