COLLECTIVE MADNESS


“Soft despotism is a term coined by Alexis de Tocqueville describing the state into which a country overrun by "a network of small complicated rules" might degrade. Soft despotism is different from despotism (also called 'hard despotism') in the sense that it is not obvious to the people."

In The USA, you have a better chance of being shot and killed by a child than a crazed Islamic Terrorist

Nine-Month-Old Boy Accidentally Shot by Brother in Elmo, Missouri

A nine-month-old boy has died after his five-year-old brother accidentally shot him, police in Missouri said. Officers found the infant suffering from a gunshot wound to the head after responding to a 911 call placed by the boys' mother on Monday morning, according to the Nodaway County Sheriff's Office.
The mother, identified as Alexis Wiederholt, originally told dispatchers that the tot had been shot by his brother with a paintball gun. Upon arriving at the home Elmo, Missouri, authorities determined that a .22-caliber Magnum revolver had been used, police said. Authorities believe the shooting was accidental.


-----------------
From the Washington Post:

...When children unintentionally shoot themselves or other people, media reports typically follow. A three-year-old boy is playing with a gun and shoots himself in the face. A four-year-old girl discovers a gun and shoots her four-year-old cousin, killing him. A three-year-old boy shoots himself in the head. A five-year-old accidentally shoots a three-year-old girl. A five-year-old boy accidentally shoots and kills himself. A four-year-old boy accidentally shoots himself. A two-year-old boy shoots and kills his 11-year-old sister. It goes on like this, story after story of unintentional shootings involving children that lead to injuries or deaths. (Many unintentional shootings of children occur when they are with people of similar ages, Vernick said, though many also involve children by themselves.)The National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS), which the CDC launched in 2002, does combine data from death certificates, medical examiner reports and law enforcement reports to try to produce this type of information. However, this system currently only operates in 18 states, so the numbers it offers are not national and the CDC cautions that the data should not be viewed as nationally representative. Still, it offers someinformation: Across the 17 states the NVDRS has data for from 2011, there were 11 unintentional firearm deaths that year in which the person pulling the trigger was age 14 or younger.

  2. Here is where it gets interesting;

    The US Government is obsessed with taking data from all sources to justify the expenses being poured into surveillance and fighting the “war on terrorism" in the US, ostensibly to save American lives. The US Government collects and has no data on how many children kill Americans with a gun even though children with guns have a better kill record against Americans, in the USA, than Islamic Jihad.

  5. Focus: Iran Fighting For Civilization Series


    January 20, 2015

    Was Iran behind the murder of Argentinian prosecutor Alberto Nisman?

    By Jeff Lipkes


    Two terrorism experts see the fingerprints of Iran in the alleged suicide early yesterday of Alberto Nisman, the Argentinian prosecutor who was to testify before the National Congress the same afternoon on the 1994 bombing of the Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires that killed 85 and injured hundreds. Nisman had amassed evidence of a cover-up by the Argentinian government. He released an explosive 300-page report documenting this last week. No one has been successfully prosecuted in the bombing, the worst terrorist attack in the country’s history.

    Nisman’s “suicide” comes a day after an Israeli strike on a Hezb’allah convoy in Syria, killing six, including the son of its late military commander. Iran sponsors the terrorist organization, which controls southern Lebanon, and has provided the personnel for its global operations targeting Israelis and non-Israeli Jews.




    Announcing on Friday that he would veto any sanctions imposed by Congress against Iran, President Obama said, “My main message to Congress at this point is to hold your fire.” This is not something he’s apparently advised his negotiating partners in Teheran.

  11. I see IRANIANS and Hezbollah NOT in their homeland.... But on the Israel border

    According to the media report, the attack on Sunday, near the city of El Quneitra, killed six Iranian Revolutionary Guard officials.

    Among them was a son of an ex-Hezbollah commander.

    Local media say that their car was en route from Lebanon to Syria when it was targeted by an Israeli helicopter.

    "Following the Zionist aggressions against the resistance in Syria, General Mohammad Allahdadi, a former commander of the Sarollah Brigade of the Revolutionary Guard, was martyred along with Jihad Moughniyah and three others in the same car," the Dana news website said, referring to the son of Hezbollah's late military leader, Imad Moughniyah.

    Hezbollah officials on Monday vowed retaliation after the attack, various media in the region are reporting.

  15. I see the questions keep getting repeated, but there never is an answer.
    Guess the Zionists do not want to be able to be tied to an answer of what it is that makes a person a Jew.

    We know it is not religion, or Tel Aviv would not be the gay sex capital of the Mediterranean region.
    The Zionists have rejected belief in the religious tenets of Judaism as a qualifier for being "Jewish".

    It cannot be a genetic connection to the people that followed Moses out of Israel, as the Ashkenazi have none.
    So it is not genetics that is the qualifier for being "Jewish".

    So, what is the qualifier?
    What makes a Jew?

    I would question the validity of them, as a monolithic group, without an authentic religious or genetic bond to hold them together.

    2. But ... if that were the case, why would Mr Jacobs write that ...

      Yet wherever the left holds sway, Israel is seen through jaundiced eyes. There has been an unprecedented moral inversion, illustrating the power of a noxious idea to seep from the ideological fringe to the mainstream.

      The United States is not yet down to one pro-Israel party. But the seepage among Democrats continues. At the 2012 Democratic convention, a fight erupted over the deletion from the party’s platform of standard language acknowledging Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. It took an order from the White House to restore the pro-Israel clause, and even then it had to be gaveled through over the vocal opposition of half the convention delegates.

      Not long ago, such a hostile gesture would have been unthinkable. Now, with each new poll confirming Democratic chilliness toward the Jewish state Democrats once loved, can it be anything but a precursor of worse to come?


      Unless, of course, liberals have come to realize that Zionists do not represent the "Jewish" people.

    The minister, Nadia al-Sakkaf posted on her Twitter account on Tuesday that President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi home in downtown Sanaa has come under “heavy shelling since 3:00 PM by armed forces positioned over rooftops facing his house.”

    Hadi is believed to be inside the house.

    The shelling is a dramatic escalation in the violence that has gripped Sanaa since Monday and which has been described as a coup.

    Al-Sakkaf’s posting came as a Yemeni army commander said the rebels have also raided the presidential palace – where Hadis’ office is – and are looting its weapons depot.

    Yes it was.

    The discussion was about ‘should’ we be in the ME.

    Your comment was a simple statement of ‘why’ we were/are in the ME and as such was a non-sequitur.

    Had you argued that we were in the ME because of oil AND that that reason was sufficient to justify our military interventions there you would have in effect joined the argument. In that case, your comment would NOT have been a non-sequitur.

      I do think that in the past, referencing the remarks by Mr Obama, the 'threat' the US saw in Yemen was from radical Sunnis, al-Qeada. The US had been using its UAV capacity to target those radicals, with a nod and a wink from the government, there. One would have to think that Mr Obama's remarks were focused upon that, not the decades long secular strife that is being played out, today.

    There was a question above about the SOTU address.

    I probably won't watch it, not because the focus won't be interesting but because all Obama will be doing is providing a broad outline of his proposals. I will be more interested in the details that get rolled out over the next couple weeks.

    I give Obama credit for the focus he is bringing to the plight of the middle class. Not sure how far any of his proposals will get but at least he is bringing a major problem to the fore.

    I heard some suggestions about what will be proposed and at least one of the proposals makes sense to me, getting rid of the 'Angel of Death' provisions that allow the wealthy through trust arrangements to to pass on accumulated capital gains to heirs without paying taxes on those gains.

    Paris Mayor Plans to Sue Fox News Over Inaccurate Reports

    The network retracted and apologized for inaccurate reports on "no-go zones" for non-Muslims

    Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo said in an interview Tuesday that she plans to sue the American network Fox News after it broadcast inaccurate reports on Muslim “no-go zones” in the French capital, in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attacks.

    Her comments, which aired on CNN, come in the wake of multiple Fox News reports that describe areas of Paris as off-limits to non-Muslims and governed by Sharia law, reports that were untrue and which the network later apologized for.

    “When we’re insulted, and when we’ve had an image, then I think we’ll have to sue, I think we’ll have to go to court, in order to have these words removed,” Hidalgo told Amanpour in an interview. “The image of Paris has been prejudiced, and the honor of Paris has been prejudiced.”

  30. (Reuters) - Lithuania is publishing a manual to advise its citizens on how to survive a war on its soil as concerns grow that Russia's intervention in Ukraine heralds increased assertiveness in its tiny Baltic neighbours.

    "Keep a sound mind, don't panic and don't lose clear thinking," the manual explains. "Gunshots just outside your window are not the end of the world."

    The manual, which the Defence Ministry will send to libraries next week and also distribute at army events, says Lithuanians should resist foreign occupation with demonstrations and strikes, "or at least doing your job worse than usual".

  31. "Because of the long and varied history of the Jews," says the 2001 edition of World Book Encyclopedia, "it is difficult to define a Jew. There is no such thing as a Jewish race. Jewish identity is a mixture of religious, historical, and ethnic factors."
    Thus, those who might have truly claimed to be of the genealogy of Abraham and of true Semitic origin became extinct as a discernible race, being replaced by the white Khazars of the Transcaucasus, none of whose ancestors, as Benjamin Freedman phrases it, have ever placed a foot in the land of Palestine. This causes a serious problem with modern Christianity's infatuation with the Jews and their "return to their Homeland," begging the question:
    How can one return to a place where they have never been?

    1. Ashkenaz (alt. spelling: Ashchenaz) is mentioned in but one scripture other than 1 Chronicles 6:1, which is only another reference to the genealogy as descending from Japheth.

      In the book of Jeremiah the prophet, God announces that Israel is to call upon other nations as allies in bringing His judgments against Babylon.
      Among those allies, who are not part of Israel or Judah, and therefore could not be numbered as Jews, is Ashchenaz. (See Jer. 51:27)

    2. UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, published a series of booklets entitled, The Race Question in Modern Science, in which oneof the authors, Harry Shapiro, states:

      The wide range of variation between Jewish populations in their physical characteristics and the diversity of the gene frequencies of their blood groups render any unified racial classification for them a contradiction in terms. For although modern racial theory admits some degree of polymorphism or variation within a racial group, it does not permit distinctly different groups, measured by its own criteria of race, to be identified as one. To do so would make the biological purposes of racial classification futile and the whole procedure arbitrary and meaningless. ...despite the evidence efforts continue to be made to somehow segregate the Jews as a distinct racial entity.

      Thus, attempting to claim the existence of a "race" of Jews has been proven to be an anthropological impossibility. Though their God consistently warned them against intermingling themselves amongst non-Jewish races, their miscegenistic tendencies are well documented, and has resulted in their complete erasure as a distinct, genetic peoples.

    3. Mr. Freedman, as mentioned, was an Ashkenazic Jew. In his disgust with what he witnessed his brethren doing he has used rather forcible language outlining their actions and origins.

      Concerning them he unequivocally states:

      There wasn't one of them who had an ancestor who ever put a toe in the Holy Land. Not only in Old Testament history, but back to the beginning of time. Not one of them! And yet they come to the Christians and ask us to support their armed insurrections in Palestine by saying, "You want to help repatriate God's Chosen People to their Promised Land, their ancestral home, don't you? It's your Christian duty. We gave you one of our boys as your Lord and Savior. You now go to church on Sunday, and you kneel and you worship a Jew, and we're Jews." But they are pagan Khazars who were converted just the same as the Irish were converted.
      It is as ridiculous to call them "people of the Holy Land," as it would be to call the 54 million Chinese Moslems "Arabs."

  32. Turkey’s prime minister, a NATO ally, is shipping arms to al-Qaeda and ISIS via Syria-bound trucks operated by the country’s intelligence agency, according to Turkish military officials.

    Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu banned media from reporting on three of the trucks searched by the military’s Gendarmerie General Command, which discovered 45 to 55 missiles or rockets, 30 to 40 crates of ammunition, including mortar rounds, and Douchka anti-aircraft ammunition.

    “The trucks were carrying weapons and supplies to the al-Qaeda terror organization,” a report by the Gendarmerie General Command stated.

    Davutoglu also removed public prosecutor Aziz Takei from office for ordering the search.

    Additionally, the 13 soldiers involved in the search have been charged with espionage and are facing 20-year prison terms.

    “Though the scandal is tearing the country apart, the government opted for its favorite tactic of covering it up,” Turkish journalist Fehim Taştekin reported. “A court in Adana banned written, visual and Internet media outlets from any reporting and commenting on the stopping of the trucks and the search.”

    “All online content about the incident has been deleted.”

  34. I have never in my life come upon anyone as cathected to 'the Jewish question' as our lamentable rat's ass.

    What pray tell is a 'Lutheran'?

    Hegel was a 'Lutheran'. NIetzsche's old man was a 'Lutheran'. I was raised a 'Lutheran'. Was Martin Luther a 'Lutheran'?

    If I went to the trouble I could name 100 'Lutherans' whose views and ancestry are so varied as to make your head spin.

    My outlook is that one should ask the possible culprit "Are you a 'Lutheran'?" and wait for an answer.

    I've often wondered whether perhaps Quart and Rufus with their love of liquor might be, or at least make, with a little effort, passable Lutherans.

    Since the weekend, the White House has been proudly signaling that President Barack Obama will propose a series of new tax hikes targeting the wealthy in tonight’s State of the Union address. As The Washington Examiner’s Jason Russell observed, the president is nothing if not consistent. He has backed tax hikes in every State of the Union address he has delivered since 2009.

    But while some of the president’s proposed tax increases passed with the help of compliant Democrats in control of one or both chambers of Congress over the course of his presidency, any new taxes that Obama proposes tonight have next to no chance of becoming law. But for Obama, the limited viability of his State of the Union proposals is no obstacle to putting them forward. Over the last six years, the president has made an absurd number of wild projections and fanciful promises.

    The folks over at Grabien produced this montage of Obama’s promises in State of the Union addresses and found no fewer than 112 unfulfilled guarantees.....

  43. >>>When the Muslim population remains at or under 2%, their presence tends to fly low under the radar. In the 2% – 5% range, Muslims begin to seek converts, targeting those they see as disaffected, such as criminals. When the population reaches 5% they exert influence disproportionate to their numbers, becoming more aggressive and pushing for Sharia law. When the population hits the 10% mark Muslims become increasingly lawless and violent. Once the population reaches 20%, there is an increase in rioting, murder, jihad militias, and destruction of non-Muslim places of worship. At 40%, there are “widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare.” Once beyond 50%, infidels and apostates are persecuted, genocide occurs, and Sharia law is implemented. After 80%, intimidation is a daily part of life along with violent jihad and some state-run genocide as the nation purges all infidels. Once the nation has rid itself of all non-Muslims, the presumption is that ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ has been attained – the Islamic House of Peace.<<<

    The Muslim population of America is expanding at warp speed

    By Carol Brown


    Even when Muslims are a minority population they can and do transform whole cultures and societies. And not for the better.

    Why? Because their holy book is a totalitarian ideology founded on submission and world domination. And toward that end, Islam is on the march. Meanwhile, the West remains mired in cowardice and complicity. Nowhere can this be seen more clearly than in Europe, which is on the fast track to join the Caliphate.




    Not to be outdone by Europe’s madness, the United States is traveling down the same bloody path, importing large numbers of Muslims from Islamic countries thanks to the Islamophile sitting in the Oval Office and a nation full of dhimmis.............

      Obama Proposes Law that Already Exists

      President Barack Obama shamed Congress in his State of the Union address on Tuesday night to pass legislation that already exists. Apparently not briefed by his Secretary of Labor and Attorney General, Obama announced:

      “That's why this Congress still needs to pass a law that makes sure a woman is paid the same as a man for doing the same work. Really. It's 2015. It's time.”

      But it was June 10, 1963, when Congress passed “The Equal Pay Act of 1963,” which can be found at 29 U.S.C. § 206(d). It says:...............
