Beaucoup de choses se passent actuellement au point où nous, les blogueurs, ne savons plus où donner de la tête tellement il y a de matériel à couvrir. Comme dans le cas des nouvelles concernant Israel, à l’occasion je vais vous présenter des articles relatifs à l’Union Européenne. Celle-ci risque d’éclater bientôt et c’est pourquoi il est impératif d’observer la situation de près.
Charles Gave – Le monstre Euro
Who could have guessed that, seriously? I always thought that social inequalities favor the growth of left-wing activists and pressure groups but, according to a new study by the University of Tennessee, it seems that it is the opposite. A decrease in income and wealth favor the development of conservative values. No kidding. Check this out.
In a French article recently, I presented you a video in which you could hear and see Françoise Dior, heir of the Christian Dior haute-couture company, brag about her love for National-Socialism and for Hitler. That took place a few weeks before her marriage with Colin Jordan in 1963. This week, thanks to a reportage by the National Post, we learned that Coco Chanel was a Nazi spy during WWII, according to new book by Hal Vaughan, Sleeping With the Enemy: Coco Chanel’s Secret War. The links between fashion industry and fascism are all over the place. One has to be naive or blind not to see them.
Bonne entrevue du Doc Mailloux avec André Arthur concernant le matriarcat québécois. Par expérience, ça ne change pas, à chaque fois que des hommes abordent cette question, ils se font systématiquement traiter de misogynes. Misogynes ou pas, il n’en demeure pas moins que la société québécoise est une société de femmes où ces dernières gèrent et décident à peu près tout, de chaque détail de la décoration intérieure des maisons et de l’habillement des enfants, jusqu’aux conditions de travail des employés et le reste. Pour donner une idée de l’état déplorable de la situation, il est un fait avéré que les maisons d’édition choisissent les livres à publier en fonction d’un public de femmes, et il en est de même passablement pour ce qui est de la télévision. Toute la culture est féminine. Si je me prends en exemple, j’ai essayé à plusieurs reprises de publier des manuscrits à saveur philosophique…mais ça ne « pogne » pas. Les bouquins de recettes de cuisine, d’astrologie, de récits « faits vécus » qui font vivre des « émotions » aux lectrices, ça, cela pogne, parce que c’est superficiel et insignifiant. Je suis d’accord avec le Doc Mailloux que nous avons une culture tarée en ce qui concerne la prise en charge des enfants. Aussi, et ça le Doc Mailloux ne le dit pas ouvertement, pas dans cette entrevue-là du moins, c’est que les femmes ne sont pas capables au Québec d’admettre leurs torts. Elles sont toujours parfaites, elles ne font jamais d’erreurs, elles ne font jamais preuve de manque de jugement et de discernement et elles ne prennent jamais de mauvaises décisions. Non. Dans leur bonté, elles ont décidé de laisser cette partie aux hommes. C’est probablement cela qu’elles appellent le « partage des tâches ». Mailloux donne aussi en exemple certaines mères qui systématiquement soulignent les erreurs de leurs enfants mais très rarement leurs bons coups, ce qui est une façon subtile de les rabaisser…sans que cela paraisse.

On Thursday July 28th, National Post‘s Jonathan Kay wrote an excellent article on the links between Anders Behring Breivik’s and Adolf Hitler’s intellectual patterns. I am particularly grateful that he took the time (thanks!) to read into the whole or at least some parts of Breivik’s manifesto. Having a day job and being interested and compelled into so many things at the same time for the elaboration of this blog, I don’t have time unfortunately to read 1,500 pages+ manifestos. I strongly rely on the research of others, journalists or researchers, to be able to blog and analyse situations and cases. I intervene at « level 2 » if you will, in the process toward truthful information. I don’t have the credentials to pretend that I am an investigative journalist nor that I have those to be considered a professional and acknowledged researcher. My background is made of research in religious studies and psychology, and attempts to established myself as professional writer in philosophy and other subjects.
These caveats being made, let’s get back to the article. Kay quotes or references several passages of Hitler’s Mein Kampf in which the nazi leader expresses psychopathological thoughts linking negative views on sexuality, biological illnesses, germ theory, moral decadence and racial theory on Jews and other groups. Kay compares these passages with some of Breivik’s manifesto, revealing some striking similarities: references to sexual decadence, sexually transmitted diseases, social reform needed, etc. The article continues the analysis and overall it does an excellent job at bringing up to the surface a very important element that 99,9% of the rest of the media managed to miss regarding this case, as it is almost always the case unfortunately with anything really important.

In a recent article, Globe and Mail’s Neil Reynolds expressed his astonishment and perhaps even sadness as regards to the rhetoric that has been employed during the debt ceiling debate in the U.S. After presenting an almost exhaustive list of people in the media who displayed language using the « terrorist » label, he concludes the article by saying that democracy would never have come into existence in the first place with such behavior, calling it « preposterous and shameful ». Although I appreciate the sentiment that he is showing here, I am not sure that it is the proper thing that has to been understood. For me, this language is rather the expression of a « five-minutes-to-midnight » feeling where suddenly, in the face of an impending catastrophy and collapse, people abandon the niceties because there is no point keeping them anymore. A lot of folks in the Tea Party and the Republican Party want the destruction of the United States. One doesn’t need to be an expert to see that. Democrats who used to be skeptics or who didn’t want to face reality now have no longer the choice. One can deny the building is on fire, but once the flames are up to your ass, it’s another pair of sleeves, or pants if you prefer. The rhetoric of the Democrats and liberals, although unusual, is accurate and appropriate for people who start to see things as they are. If Democrats and liberals don’t do something really fast to take back control of this country, it will collapse and Balkanize. What we have to understand here is that because something is cute, it doesn’t make it right necessarily, and on the opposite, because something is repulsive at face value, it doesn’t make it wrong automatically. I think good judgement is always necessary. Democrats are awakening to the impending catastrophy. I just wish it is not too late. As a means of enriching the discussion, I propose John Moore’s analysis of the situation in a recent edition of the National Post. I think that he has a rather fair assessment of right-wing activists, or purits as the calls them, in the U.S.
A repost from anti-fascist researcher Dave Emory assesses the present political, economical and financial situation of the United States with great accuracy, as early as 2003. We must admit that he was right on target when recording that show. Here are the basic facts. The Irak war reveals itself to have been a deliberate scheme by the Bush Admistration to increase spending of the federal government in a way that would send it on a vertical spiral of deficits and debt. Accompanied by tax cuts to benefit the wealthy that inevitably decrease the state budget, these two measures or decisions look rather like sabotage attempts to destroy the U.S. economy, either for bringing a totalitarian regime or for Balkanizing them. People belonging to mainstream academia and media, such as Paul Krugman, have made similar analyses. The tax cuts implemented by the Bush Administration are so deep that it is impossible to maintain them without cutting U.S. spending, where the money is, i.e. in social programs or military budget. A report commissioned by the Treasury Department estimated that the U.S. face a chronic budget accumulated deficits of some 44 trillion dollars, if tax rates and spending budget remain the same. To close the gap, a 66% accross the board tax increase would be necessary. The show reminds us of a striking similarity that exists between the behavior of the French elite before WWII and the one of the American elite these days. If the French elite was acting in preparation for a takeover by Germany in defense against Communism, the behavior of the present-day power elite in the U.S. is suggesting that a similar process is under way. The broadcast also deals with other related elements of the puzzle, such as the role played by tax havens like Liechtenstein, Nassau, Panama and Switzerland. It has to be noted that Saddam Hussein siphoned off millions of dollars from oil corporations as bribes into offshore accounts. Hussein used this bribe money to finance weapons deals during embargo periods. Continuer la lecture
Doit-on se surprendre de cela? L’Union Européenne étant la réalisation historique de la Grande Europe tant rêvée par Hitler, il est absolument logique qu’elle en vienne à cela. La Bête de l’Apocalypse est maintenant au milieu de nous.
Since a few weeks ago, the Canadian government has begun chasing and arresting war criminals with energy under the leadership of the Conservative Party. During this time in the European Union, this project of Nazi Greater Europe come true, war criminals after more than sixty years continue to get away with their crimes. I think it is pretty obvious now for everyone that if these individuals were not prosecuted after WWII and not to this day for the vast majority of them, it is precisely because a lot of people were sympathetic to their cause. In other words, without saying it in plain terms, certain people agree with what these war criminals did, i.e. to exterminate, or helping to, Jews and other « undesirables » such as Romas, Serbs, Slavs, Gypsies, etc. During WWII, there were those who took the decisions, those who carried them out…and those who did nothing to prevent it from happening, either out of cowardice, fear, collaboration…or because they agreed. In the case of this nice fellow, Sandor Kepiro, a Hungarian charged with war crimes against Serbs and Jews, he evidently got away with an acquittal in the marvelous kingdom of the European Union and at the venerable age of 97 years old. Worth noting in the article that follows, is that the Fidesz government of Hungary has rehabilitated the Horthy fascist dictatorship of WWII during which Kepiro committed his crimes, and also that the judge seemed to be biaised when ruling about behavior in court. In effect, some people who showed up with the star of David were asked to remove it, while extreme right-wing nationalists from the Burgkomitate 64 were allowed in with the Arrow Cross Party symbol. Outside the court, many right-wing Jobbik Party and National League Foundation supporters were present to encourage Kepiro. The author of the article, Markus Salzmann, concludes with the astute remark that the « revolution » of 1989 that swept Eastern Europe and that was supposed to bring democracy finally in that part of the world after decades of communism, has revealed itself to be the triumph of exploitation and capitalism. Eastern Europeans are a long way from democracy, as are citizens of the Middle East after the « Arab Spring ». In both cases I am afraid, the sweet candy of democracy was used to bring and install some form of fascism. Sad but probably true. As for Kepiro, he will die as an old man protected by the collaborators of the European Union. The song remains the same on the Old Continent.
Jes’ that I have a lot to say about this manifesto! First of all, let me clarify a few things. Looking at the « facts » to begin with, as usual, I don’t buy the official story. It is utterly improbable that this guy could have acted alone. Like in the case of the Oklahoma City bombing and countless of other similar acts, the « lone nuts » as we have come to call them have operated in teams, for the simple reason that it is complicated to organize and do such coups in terms of logistics for a start. In effect, in a tree nuts always come with a lot of brothers and sisters. In all probabilities, there were several shooters on that island to account for such casualties. Also, for me, the bombing of the governmental building in central Oslo is a separate operation from the shooting at Utoya. Yet the press and the police are trying to make us believe a ridiculous story where Anders Behring Breivik, the alleged killer, has taken a transport to go from the city of Oslo to Utoya island, with heavy ammunitions. Remember that he shot for an hour and a half, that’s a lot of bullets… As well, the official story says that he has fabricated the bomb that blew the federal building in central Oslo with fertilizer… You see, he lives on a farm… When you are a farmer, that’s the kind of things that you have, fertilizer, and if you don’t, you won’t eat very fat with your farming… Besides that it is heavy, again. Bombers try to find the smallest but most powerful explosives they can find, not something that you need a whole truck just to carry.
Another thing that is striking in this case is the manipulation of data that seems to have been taken place. According to a finding made by the webmaster of Postedeveille.ca, the tags « christian » and « conservative » have been added to the killer’s Facebook page. By who? I don’t know but it smells like a set up, a frame up, a masquerade. Continuer la lecture
