Good news from Occupied Germany

If you've been waiting for my comment on the staged, boring, counter-factual, dismal, CNN interview of the Cackler and her valorous protector... you just had it. Let's turn our attention to das Vaterland, where, right now, millions of people are voting against migration and wokeness.

Why, here's a voter right now! His sign asks German chancellor Olaf Scholz how many more Germans must die at the hands of Islamic terrorists. He's referring, no doubt, to atrocities like the recent stabbings in Solingen. See "More 'Allahu akbar!' in Germany... implications for USA and Canada". WWW 26/8/24.

This weekend, in the German States of Saxony and Thuringia, comes the reckoning for Herr Scholz and his Social Democratic Party (the German equivalent of America's Dimocrats), who, under the leadership of Angela Merkel, encouraged the occupation of Germany by hordes of "refugees" and asylum-seekers who are hell-bent on establishing a European caliphate.

In those states (which, significantly, were part of East Germany), the rightist Alternativ für Deutschland (AfD) is on the cusp of winning the most votes in German state elections for the first time since the days of Hitler.

For the gliberals, progressives, and one-worlders, that's a nightmare -- like the rise of MAGA in the US of A -- but others, particularly in the east, say the AfD is the last chance to get their country back. Cries of "Deutschland den Deutschen!" are loud in the land!

Just as in America, the temperature of German politics has been rising all year. At an SPD rally in Thuringia, protesters (like the one pictured) shouted "Liar!) at Chancellor Scholz. Chants of "Volksverräter" -- "Traitor to the people" -- were also heard. 

Polling shows the SPD (and its Green and Liberal coalition partners) are doing so badly in Thuringia that they may not even get a single seat in the state parliament. The AfD, by contrast, tops the polls with 30% to the SPD's 22%.

Meanwhile, in neighbouring Saxony, the AfD is running neck and neck with the conservative CDU. The knife attack in Solingen, in which a Syrian asylum-seeker and jihadi wannabe killed three people, has fuelled fierce criticism of how successive "liberal democratic" governments have handled migration. In a response which can only be described as "panicky", ministers announce tougher asylum regulations and knife crime laws.

[How much tougher? Ed.]  Well, for one thing, they are actually in the process of deporting a handful of "irregular migrants" who asylum claims were denied.

Yesterday, a deportation flight bound for Afghanistan left Leipzig with 28 -- count `em, 28 -- Afghanis on board. That leaves only a million or so benefits-shoppers still in Germany. According to the Ministry of the Interior, those on the flight are convicted criminals from various states across Germany. Der Spiegel reported that each deportee, all of whom were male, received a payment of €1000 ($1100 in real money). The spokesthingy for Saxony’s Interior Ministry was unable to confirm this.

The flight marks Germany’s first deportation of Afghans back to their home country since the Taliban retook power there in August 2021, after the Biden Bug-out. In a presser following the flight's departure, a government spokesthingy emphasized that Berlin was not in direct talks with the Taliban. Rather,  he said, it secured the deportation through the mediation of "key regional powers" whom he carefully refused to name.

He did add, though, that the German government has made "intensive efforts" to deport migrants who have committed serious crimes back to Afghanistan and Syria in the wake of a knife attack -- not Solingen, but the "Allahu akbar!" incident in the southwestern city of Mannheim at the end of May. The German immigration control authorities have laboured mightily, it seems, and brought forth... well... see above.

Babylon Bee leaks questions from CNN Harris-Walz interview

Ed. here. This is just too good for us too excerpt, but we can't simply repost the whole article, so here... read it for yourself. 

And while we're at `er, here's a terrific "separated at birth?" picture scraped from Blazing Cat Fur.

And yeah... Walt admits that he's too tired today to write anything. He's still recovering from that trip to the West Coast.

VIDEO: Harris vs Harris: The Great Debate

In this official Trump campaign ad, the Cackler is shown debating herself on issues involving the economy and "Bidenomics". Additional commentary was compiled by Sky News Australia.

   

Walt's comment (explaining previous post): "Joy to the World" is a Christmas carol, not a plan for saving our sock society from the mess created by liberal wokesters in Washington, London, Ottawa etc etc.

The Joy of Sucks

"Don't even think about America's problems! Don'tworry, be happy!"

How much more of this sick-making cult of the personality can we stand?

More "Allahu akbar!" in Germany... implications for USA and Canada

German chancellor Olaf Scholz said this weekend that his government remains committed to former chancellor Angela Merkel's policy of welcoming foreign invaders "for humanitarian and legal reasons". However, he said "Irregular migration into Germany must go down." Sounds to Walt like sucking and blowing at the same time, but why (I hear you ask) would Herr Scholz speak out in the middle of a quiet summer weekend. Here's a visual clue.

Yes, dear readers, another of those poor persecuted Muslims has done it again. Pictured is someone the polizei and politically correct media refer to as "Issa Al H", a 26-year-old Syrian "refugee". Al stabbed three people to death and wounded 8 others in an attack in Solingen on Friday. It wasn't an accident. The cops say he went for the throat every time.

The authorities (and in Germany that word means a lot) at first wouldn't name the attacker, nor would they speculate on his motive for the atrocity. But once Islamic State/ISIS claimed responsibility for the crime, they decided something had to be said, hence the statement from the Chancellor, who said today, "This was terrorism, terrorism against us all."  

How about that?! A politician with the courage to utter the T-word. But not enough courage to add adjectives such as "Islamic" or "Muslim".

Herr Scholz also said his government would have to do "everything we can to ensure that those who cannot and should not stay here in Germany are repatriated and deported" and that deportations would be sped up if necessary. He also promised to tighten laws on weapons ownership -- not "guns" but "weapons"-- "very quickly". 

This latest incident of wanton terrorism by a jihadi wannabe exacerates an already heated debate in das Vaterland about the merits (if any) of migration. On Saturday, conservative opposition leader Friedrich Merz demanded an end to taking in refugees from Syria and Afghanistan and called for controls on all of Germany’s borders. 

 

More significantly, Alice Weidel, leader of the Alternativ für Deutschland (AfD), has gone a step further and wants a complete stop to all migration. Any honest opinion poll [an oxymoron for sure. Ed.] would show the majority of Germans (as well as citizens of the AABC countries) in partial or full agreement with that proposition. 

The centre-left government of Chancellor Scholz has already pledged to deport migrants who have committed serious crimes and people whose application for asylum has been rejected. But it would appear that they have entrusted the job to the  German equivalent of America's "border czar", as very few of the benefits-shoppers have actually been sent back to their shitholes.

Mr Al-Stabby there came to Germany in 2022 as a Syrian "refugee". Usually Syrians have a good chance of being granted asylum in Germany, but his application was rejected and he was ordered to be deported to Bulgaria, because he had already registered for asylum there. But when the polizei tried to deport him, they were shocked, shocked to be unable to find him, and he remained in Germany. 

As I write I am waiting for results from yesterday's election in Saxony and Thuringia, two large eastern German states whose people are said to be less welcoming to invaders than the more liberal volk of western Germany. The AfD is expected to do well and may even win the most votes. America's Dimocrats and Canada's Gliberals should... repeat, should... take note.

Walt will return

Ed. here. Walt is at a Gathering of the Clans. He will return on Monday, DV. 

And remember...

"Kamala Harris has no flavor"

So says Rich Lowry, Editor-in-chief of the National Review, in "Kamala Harris Is Wafer Thin", 21/8/24. Absent permission to repost the entire article, we hope Mr Lowry won't mind us quoting these key passages.

It is appropriate that Kamala Harris is from the town of Oakland, Calif., of which it was famously said there was no there there. 

It is hard to think of another presidential nominee who has felt so utterly superficial — not as a campaign tactic, but as a reality. She has no flavor. 

She’s woke but doesn’t embrace being woke; her policies are socialistic although she’s not a self-declared socialist; she’s a tough law-and-order prosecutor, except when she’s not. 

She’s not a party institutionalist like Bob Dole, finally rewarded with his party’s nomination after decades of service, or a “maverick” like John McCain, who, after years being in the wilderness, finally won over his party (temporarily). 

Of course, she’s not a Bill Clinton, who rose from relative obscurity based on his unbelievable verbal acuity, charm, and shamelessness that could see him through any fix or scandal. 

No, Kamala Harris feels thin, fragile, and manufactured. The Democrats and their media allies have had the unity and discipline, so far, to pull off a feat that few would dare attempt: to topple a sitting president and create a political phenomenon out of the thinnest of reeds.

Back in the daze, Doonesbury creator Garry Trudeau (no relation) used to depict President Bush  as an askterisk * with nothing behind it. 

Walt thinks that would be highly appropriate for the Cackler.

Note from Ed.: In fairness to Mr Lowry and the National Review, I should point out that the meme above did not accompany the article. And the photo below, taken at the DNC, isn't really to Mr Lowry's point, but is very à propos the whole Dumbocrat campaign. 

Do they take the American people for fools? [Errr... could be. Walt] 

32 days now without a press conference or unscripted interview. See "How Long Can Kamala Harris Avoid the Press?", The Free Press, 22/8/24.

Teleprompter: use with caution!

Walt has lost count of the number of days, since President Brandon handed off to her, that the Cackler has avoided a press conference or unscripted interview. But the longer we wait for the inevitable gaffe, the more horrific it's likely to be.

Worth reading: "Kamala Harris campaigns on food shortages for all", by J.D. Tucille, National Post, 22/8/24.

MUSIC VIDEO: Tuba Skinny: "Till We Meet Again"

Ed. here. It's been years, literally, since we posted a music video, just for the joy of it. Walt thinks we should put up a few between now and November 5th, to give you, dear readers, an umbrella with which to shield yourselves from the shitstorm.

Today we're featuring Walt's Tuba Skinny, Walt's favourite New Orleans jazz band. (We can't say "Dixieland" any more!) Here they are on Royal Street, on 14 January 2019. The talented and versatile Shay Cohn leads the band, and Jonathan Doyle does a tasty tenor sax solo.

 

Many Canadians will remember this fine old tune, played as the closing theme on "Don Messer's Jubilee", back in the daze when the Canadian Broadcorping Castration had programmes for real people. It sounds very different here but no less enjoyable.

The music was written in 1918 by Richard A. Whiting, with lyrics by Raymond B. Egan. The song tells of the parting of a soldier and his sweetheart. The title comes from the final line of the chorus: 

Smile the while you kiss me sad adieu, 

When the clouds roll by I'll come to you. 

Then the skies will seem more blue, 

Down in lovers lane my dearie, 

Wedding bells will ring so merrily, 

Every tear will be a memory, 

So wait and pray each night for me, 

Till we meet again.

Walt dedicates this to Agent 1.

VIDEO: "Who should I vote for? Trump? Harris? Neither of them?" Michael Matt on the American Catholic dilemma

Walt has received an e-mail from our old friend Michael Matt, editor of The Remnant newspaper, as follows.

In this week’s Underground I attempt to make the case that the sensus Catholicus must ultimately trump everything else, even politics. I think most traditional Catholics would normally agree. So, why are so many of them tearing each other apart over the upcoming U.S. presidential election? Because we’re being manipulated.

When it comes to the so-called “ruling Elite,” we're all at the mercy of madmen, or baby killers, or narcissists, or outright haters of everything we believe. Wanna break their stranglehold? Take a step back, breathe, and stop anathematizing your brothers in Christ who are also trying to do the right thing.

I realize St. Thomas Aquinas made provisions for voting for the lesser of two evils, but I suspect the Angelic Doctor never imagined a Godless political regime like the one in which we find ourselves incarcerated today. So, I don’t blame good people – even those who love Aquinas as much as I do – for struggling with this even still. 

So, how about this? If you can’t in good conscience vote for the lesser of two evils because you don’t want to vote for evil at all -- even when it’s described as ‘voting for the good' – then don’t! I get it! Keep the Faith, and you’re welcome at my fire anytime. If, on the other hand, you believe you must in conscience vote for the lesser of two evils to protect your family and your country as best you can, then vote! I get it. Keep the Faith, and you’re welcome at my fire anytime. 

Only God knows your heart. We are talking about deeply personal matters of the soul and conscience here – matters that can and must be discussed, but on principle – not personal judgment. Virtue-signaling Karens on both sides, in other words, only contribute to the polarization, especially when sound moral guidance from our shepherds is practically nonexistent.

In my new Underground, I attempt to discuss big (Catholic) picture. Whether you agree with me or not, I hope you share my desire to at least try to put an end to this circular firing squad. After all and whatever happens in November, we’ll still be sharing this same foxhole long after the election has come and gone. Please watch this video (especially to the end) and let me know what you think.

 

Dear Catholic friends, please pray for all faithful Christians struggling to make us their minds. And on November 5th, do the right thing, according to your informed conscience. God bless us all! Viva, Cristo Rey!

UPDATED: Cackler's economic plan revealed at record-setting NC rally

On Friday, August 16th, while most folks were packing and praying for the weekend, the Dimocratic nominee for the presidensity of the Excited States of America, revealed her New Economic Plan at an election rally in Raleigh NC.

The big event, held on the campus of Wake Tech Community College, was attended by about 250 people, according to the Cackler's staff. Some posts on X seem to refute this claim, as they show a half-empty room with no more than 100 people gathered.

Whether the real number is 250, 100 or fewer -- it's hard to count heads in this picture -- the rally must set some kind of record for Most Sparsely Attended political event since the Biden-Trump Debate, which had a live audience of roughly zero.

Be that as it may, the rally is notable for the announcement of Ms Harris' New Economic Plan. (The Communist Party of the Soviet Union is rumored to be planning a lawsuit for infringement of their trademark.) Since she was a more-than-usually vague on the details, Walt recommends reading the synopsis on the Babylon Bee, 18/8/24.

Kamala Harris Unveils New Economic Platform 'We Must Seize The Means Of Production And Execute The Bourgeoisie'

According to the Bee, her new economic policies include price caps for food, centralizing economic power, condemning capitalism, and calling for the arrest of all bourgeoise scum. Click here to read the full article.

Further reading, from "The Harris Teleprompter Is Economically Illiterate", by David Catron, The American Spectator, 18/8/24. 

...the Harris presidential campaign finally realized that the Vice President would be forced to address the most important issue of the election. Consequently, they cobbled together a speech and shoved Harris in front of the cameras last Friday so the voters could watch her read what her teleprompter plans to do about the economy and inflation. 

And Harris said what it told her to say: "I will work to pass the first ever federal ban on price gauging [sic] on food.” Nor did she correct herself. She simply followed the teleprompter’s instructions to pause while her audience clapped like so many trained seals, then she continued to read her lines.

Thanks to BCF for making this accessible.

Waiting for the Kamala Coronation to begin

Walt is waiting with `bated breath [not "baited"; look it up. Ed.] for the beginning of the Cackler Coronation ceremonies in Chicago. I have opened a book on the number of casualties -- literally, meaning dead and wounded. You can bet day-by-day or total. Contact Dino or Mario at the barbershop.

I understand that today's opening act will include a Parade of Hasbeens, including every living Dimocrat President except Jimmy Carter. (The letter of July 23rd announcing his long-awaited passing has been denounced by Reuters as a fake. But how would we know the difference?)

 

Included in the list of participants is the one who should have been (the way she tells it) America's first female President. I refer of course to Mrs William Jefferson Clinton, who got pipped at the post by a black(ish) man and then the Orange Man.

Hellery's husband, we are told, will also deliver a few remarks. Have you seen him lately? We have a recent picture, which Ed. says was the inspiration for a beloved character who has disappeared from Family Guy. Walt wishes Slick Willy would also disappear (along with the haridan he's married to), but from the look of this picture, I'd bet on the peanut farmer to outlast him.

VIDEO: Victor Davis Hanson: Universities are failing our kids

Some of you listen to the Cackler [We're not going to call her "Hock Ptui" or "Hawk Tuah" any more. Ed.] or Gavin Newsom and think "Nothing good ever comes out of California." Walt agrees, but there are always exceptions, such as Victor David Hanson, one of the most brilliant socio-political commentators of our times. 

Here's his latest video, on the sorry state of American higher education. Mr Hanson argues that universities are churning out graduates burdened with massive debt and insufficient skills, contributing to a national crisis. Running time. < 9 minutes.

  

If for some reason you didn't listen, here are the key takeaways. Mr Hanson explains how the push for diversity and equity has led to the dilution of academic standards and the devaluation of degrees. Many young people, especially men, are not marrying, buying houses, or having children, partly due to the financial strain of student debt. 

He suggests that universities should be transparent about the true costs and potential earnings of different degrees and should take responsibility for student loan defaults. He also highlights the problem of universities rejecting highly qualified students to meet diversity quotas, leading to a decline in the quality of graduates. 

Employers are now favoring graduates from less prestigious schools because they are better trained and less entitled. Mr Hanson calls for a revolutionary movement in education to prioritize practical skills and accountability, moving away from the current system that prioritizes credentials over competence.

Signs of the inflationary times

So, farewell, then, to penny postage. The humble one-cent stamp, along with 2s, 3s, 4s and other practically worthless values have been quietly discontinued ["cancelled"? Geddit? Ed.] by Canada Post.

A hundred years ago, a one-cent stamp, with the likeness of George V, the Sailor King, was all you needed to send a postcard a mari usque ad mare -- from Squamish BC, let's say, to Dildo NL.

Today, that would cost you, for just one stamp, C$1.15 (84 cents in real money)... plus sales tax! Can you, dear American reader, imagine having to pay tax on postage stamps? If you're foolish enough to move to Canuckistan when Donald Trump is re-elected, that's what you'll have to do to help pay for Trudeau's refugee-friendly welfare state.

That $1.15, by the way, covers the postage -- still just one cent -- plus $1.14 for storage!

A hundred years ago, you could have paid for your one-cent stamp with a copper -- well, copper-coloured -- one cent coin, affectionately known as a penny. The pennies of that time were roughly the size of a modern US penny, but to numismatists they are known as "small cents", being about half the size of the "large cents" -- roughly the same as a British half-penny -- which had preceded them.

Alas, you can no longer find a Canadian penny to pay for a one-cent stamp. As Walt reported in "Canada doesn't make cents any more" (WWW 20/12/12), one-cent coins were declared surplus to requirements in 2012, since they would no longer purchase a single thing, not even a single stamp, which would have cost, including the sales tax, 1.15 cents.

I tell you this sad tale, Canadian readers, to remind you how, under a succession of Liberal (and sometimes Cuckservative) governments, your beaverbucks have become "progressively" (geddit?) devalued. 

Dear American readers, you need not be so smug because (you might say) you still have one-cent stamps and your precious pennies, not to mention dollar bills, which Canada doesn't have either. The fires of Bidenflation are raging like California [Isn't that where Hock Ptui is from? Ed.] wildfires. Time to put them out with the hose of common cents. Geddit?!

VIDEO: Victor Davis Hanson analyses Harris's choice of Tampon Tim

It has been some time since we reposted a video featuring Victor Davis Hanson, one of the most astute political analysts in America. In this one, which has had nearly 2 million views since it dropped yesterday, Mr Hanson joins The Tony Kinnett Cast to highlight the critical controversies surrounding Kamala Harris's choice of Tampon Tim Walz as her running-mate.

Mr Hanson outlines the key factors in turning any election around in less than 100 days, and cites the key moments in the late 20th century that "everything changed in an instant." Listen up.

 

Mr Hanson leaves us with these questions: Does Hock Ptui have the ability or the discipline to stay away from cameras until stepping onto the debate stage? Will Tampon Tim make that avoidance better or worse? Surely it's not necessary for Walt to say "Stay tuned!"

Well-known Afro-American (???) women

One of these wimmin gained notoriety for presenting herself as a black woman despite being born to white parents. She calls herself Nkechi Amare Diallo, but on 12 November 1977 in Lincoln County MT to Ruthanne and Larry Dolezal, both of whom are of white European descent.

Rachel Dolezal, aka Rachel Moore, usesd her self-discovered blackishness to become a college instructor and President of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) chapter in Spokane WA.

She was the subject of public scrutiny when her parents publicly stated that she was pretending to be black but was actually white. The statement by her parents followed Rachel Dolezal's reports to police and local news media that she had been the victim of race-related hate crimes. A police investigation did not support her allegations.

Ms Dolezal had also claimed on an application form to be mixed-race and had falsely claimed that an African-American man was her father and that her brother was her son. In the aftermath of the controversy, she was dismissed from her position as an instructor in "Africana studies" at Eastern Washington University and was removed from her post as chair of the Police Ombudsman Commission in Spokane over "a pattern of misconduct."

In 2015, Rachel Dolezal acknowledged that she was "born white to white parents" but maintained that she self-identified as black.

The other woman, the one on the far left (geddit?) is Kamala Devi Harris, born 20 October 1964 in Oakland CA. Her mother, Shyamala Gopalan was a biologist who moved to the United States from Tamil Nadu, India, at the age of 19, in 1958. Ms Gopalan's parents are Indian. 

While she was studying in the US of A, she met Donald Jasper Harris, born in Brown's Town, Saint Ann Parish, Jamaica. He was the son of Oscar Joseph Harris, a black Jamaican [Afro-Jamaican? Ed.] and Beryl Christie Harris (née Finegan), who was an Irish-Jamaican... or something like that. (Her details seem have mysteriously disappeared from Google.)

Walt is not sure whether that makes Hock Ptui a quadroon or an octaroon (look them up), and Ms Harris emphasizes different parts of her ethnic heritage, depending on who she's talking to. The name "Devi" disappeared around the time she got involved with Brown Willie Brown. 

When she rode into the Vice-President's Office on Senile Joe's coattails she was hailed as the first Indo-African woman to hold such high office. Then, about three weeks ago, the "Indo" part disappeared ans now Americans are urged by the adoring lickspittle media to elect the first "Black female President".

Puzzling, isn't it.

American nature VIDEO: "The Cackling Dingus"

Yesterday was Tampon Tim Walz's day to shine (?) as Hock Ptui stood alongisde him (but a couple of steps back) and listened, mercifully sparing us her infamous cackle. 

In this David Attenborough-style video, the narrator delve into the fascinating evolution of the North American "Cackling Dingus" in the democRAT-infested fever swamps of Washington DC. 

 

Despite possessing a so-called "Room Temperature IQ", this remarkable creature may transcend traditional ranks and even ascend to the highest office in the world. Incredible as it may seem, this diversity hire could, in less than three months, be entrusted with the "nuclear football". Scary, isn't it?

US election fun with figures

Number of days since since the powers behind the Democratic Party pulled Senile Joe out of the race for the presidensity and (rather undemocratically) rang in the second-stringer:

17

Number of interviews given by Hock Ptui since then:

0

She has given a few speeches, in which she has repeated the same script — first to campaign headquarters, then to party supporters in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where she introduced running mate Timmy Walz on Tuesday.

Her only unscripted remarks came last week at Andrews Air Force Base, when she joined the President-in-name-only to welcome Americans who had been freedom from Russia in a prisoner swap. *** 

In her characteristic style, the World's Most Famous Quadroon [a person who is 1/4 black by descent. Ed.] made circular remarks about "the importance of having a president who understands the power of diplomacy and understands the strength that rests in understanding the significance of diplomacy."

Selected, not elected!

Hock Ptui's pick for Veep of Kamalot

How bad IS the economy?

Read all about it! "Historic: Kamala Harris Becomes First Black Woman To Destroy World Economy", Babylon Bee (who else?) 5/8/24.

BREAKING: In a surprise move (NOT!), Hock Ptui today announced her choice of running-mate -- 60-year-old Tim Walz, the Governor of Minnesotra and reincarnation of Hubert Humphrey. 

An arch-liberal (and not a Jew like that Shapiro guy), Mr Walz has helped enact an ambitious Democratic agenda for his state, including depolicing (post-George Floyd, you see), sweeping protections for abortion "rights", and yet more welfare and other benefits, particularly for bogus "refugees" and asylum-seekers. 

Walt can hardly wait to see a debate between this wokester and J.D. Vance!

Entering Week 2 of British race riots.

Well, that's what it is, eh. The polite term is "ethnic conflict", a phrase which British meeja politicans (except for Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson) have difficulty uttering. To them, uncontrolled mass immigration is something to be celebrated, a core value of all correct-thinking Britons, not to be politicized, challenged, or even discussed. 

It must be accepted, without question. But now the common people of Not-so-great Britain have started to do more than ask questions. They have roused from their slumber and started to act to make their objections not just heard but seen. 

This all started, you may remember, with the killing of three innocent little white girls by a yoof whom the police and meeja refused to identify, except to say that he was English, born in Wales. (That would make him Welsh, of course, but never mind.) When the truth finally emerged -- see "'Allahu akbar!' in Southport, England" (WWW 29/7-1/8/2024) -- the stabber turned out to be, errr, black -- the "emotionally disturbed" child of immigrants from Rwanda. 

Meet Axel Rudakubana, portrayed in the lickspittle media as "just a kid", as in the schoolboy photo shown at left, not the grinning golliwog pictured at right. Even before the recent photo appeared, when the accused's name was revealed after a judge's order, people began to ask (as they now do every time somethingn like this happens), "How did he get into this country?!"

The answer of course is the political choice of successive British governments, both liberal-socialist (Labour) and Cuckservative, to put out the welcome mat for the wretched flotsam and jetsam washing up on Britain's shores, without regard to their suitability or willingness to join British society. 

British politicians are not alone in this, of course. The borders are being opened in Canada (and how!), Germany, France, the Excited States of America, and every country apart from Saudi Arabia, the Gulf States, and Australia. It's all part of the Soros-backed One-Worlders' Great Replacement strategy.

The pinko globalists who dominate British media and politics intend to transform Once-great Britain into a specifically multi-ethnic -- rather than multiracial -- society. Ethnic identities, of which being British was framed as one among many, are to be embraced, within the parameters of the newly multicultural state and immigration restrictions lifted to achieve this goal.

Of this multicultural bullshit, patriotriotic Britons, proud of their race and culture, have had enough! Clashes between white Englishmen, on one side, and Muslims, gypsies, Africans and the police (!) on the other have broken out in cities across the "Sceptered Isle", and showed no signs of abating over the weekend.

In Rotherham, a hotel used to house asylum seekers was set ablaze, and another in Tamworth was targeted by anti-immigration protesters. In Bolton, Muslim groups shouting "Allahu Akbar!" clashed with people who Sir Keir Stürmer, Britain's new leftist Prime Minister called "far-Right rioters". 

Sir Keir didn't call them "racists", but nowadays it's understood by all correct-thinking, progressive people that "far right" and "racist" are synonymous.

In Middlesbrough, a mob shouted "Smash the Pakis" and "There ain't no black in the Union Jack", while targeting the homes of migrants. They're the "racists", of course, not the Asian men attacking white men in footage from elsewhere in the city seen on social media.

Yesterday, more than 200 hooded rioters [shades of the KKK! Ed.] descended on the Holiday Inn Express in Rotherham, which has previously been used to house asylum seekers. After smashing several ground floor windows, the attackers then attempted to set the hotel on fire, torching bins and then using them to blockade the exits.

In Bolton, there were scuffles in the town's streets between anti-immigration protesters and Muslim counter demonstrators. By early afternoon the counter-protesters, who were mostly Asian and many in Muslim dress, outnumbered the anti-immigration protest by two to one.

Also yesterday, the Home Office announced that extra police and security forces will be deployed to protect mosques (!), after they were targeted by anti-immigrant demonstrators.  

In an emergency address from Downing Street, Sir Keir Starmer warned the rioters would regret taking part and vowed to do “whatever it takes to bring these thugs to justice as quickly as possible”.He added: “This is not protest. I won’t shy away from calling this what it is – far-Right thuggery... The police will be making arrests. Individuals will be held on remand. Charges will follow. And convictions will follow."

In his statement, Sir Queer [= weird. Ed.] opened the door to tougher prison sentences for rioters, and announced suspects will be held on remand and locked up immediately after being charged. These were the authoritarian actions he took in 2011, when he was Director of Public Prosecutions, to tackle "ethnic conflict" and quash dissent.

Whether that strategy will work this time is an open question. Doubts have been raised over whether there are enough jail places available for Sir Keir to mount a 2011-style response to the unrest. Britain's prison system is running at almost-full capacity, with only around 700 spaces available in "male prisons" around the country. 

Unless some of the transgendered protesters are sent to "female prisons", a researcher at the Institute for Government told the meeja that locking up all the rioters was "not an option" unless more prisoners are released. "The situation in prisons is desperate," she said. "We simply don’t have the prison spaces available for mass arrests like we saw in 2011."

Walt sez: Political action -- like voting -- isn't working. Only mass protests get the attention of the elites that, through our inaction, rule us.  Have at them!

Well, that does it! Somalia is off Walt's bucket list! The Liido Restaurant (pictured) in Mogadishu, the shithole's capital, serves excellent mystery-meat burgers, but enjoying one on the beach could cost you your life. Time for the latest news from Liido Beach, followed by a history lesson.

The news today is that at least 32 people were killed in a suicide attack at the popular beach, carried out by al-Shabaab militants. Hassan Ben-Sober [Ed., please check name], a police spokesthingy, told the meeja that "around 63" people were also wounded, some of them critically.

Video footage showed a number of bodies and injured people in Mogadishu's Abdiaziz district. Al-Shabab controls large parts of southern and central Somalia. The group is affiliated to al-Qaeda and for two decades has waged a brutal insurgency against a government backed by the Disunited Nations.

If you (like 99.99% of Americans) have forgotten about Somalia, let me remind you that the government of William Jefferson Clinton (Democrat) sent American troops there to wage peace in the 1990s as part of a UN snafu known as "Operation Gothic Serpent".

Mogadishu was the site of the infamous "Black Hawk Down Incident", of 3-4 October 1993, part of the Battle of Mogadishu, between forces of the US of A against the forces of the so-called Somali National Alliance (SNA) and armed irregulars. The battle was part of the then two-year-old Somali civil war, just one of the Muslim civil wars in which America has foolishly intervened. 

The UN initially sent troops to alleviate the famine of 1992, but then began trying to restore a central government, establish democracy, yada yada yada. In June of 1993, UN peacekeepers suffered their deadliest day in decades when the Pakistani contingent was attacked while inspecting a SNA weapons storage site. That's what happens when you look into the barrel.

UNOSOM II (the UN task force) blamed SNA leader Mohammed Farah Aidid and launched a manhunt. In July, American forces raided the Abdi House in search of Aidid, killing many elders and prominent members of Aidid's clan. Big mistake, Dr Jones! The raid led many Mogadishu residents to join the fight -- not on "our" side -- and in August, Aidid and the SNA deliberately attacked American personnel for the first time. And that's why slick Willy dispatched Task Force Ranger to sort things out.

On 3 October 1993, US forces planned to seize two of Aidid's top lieutenants during a meeting deep in the city. The raid was only intended to last an hour, but morphed into an overnight standoff and rescue operation extending into the daylight hours of the next day. Here's the trailer for the slightly biased movie version of what happened.

What really happened was this. As the battle progressed (or not), Somali forces used RPGs to shoot down three American Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters. Two of them crashed deep in hostile territory (read: anywhere in the city). A desperate defence of the two downed helicopters began and fighting lasted through the night to defend the survivors of the crashes. In the morning, a UNOSOM II armored convoy fought their way to the besieged soldiers and withdrew, incurring further casualties but rescuing the survivors.

No battle since the Vietnam War claimed so many American casualties -- 18 dead and 73 wounded. You won't see much about the other forces in the movie, but Malaysian forces suffered one death and seven wounded, and Pakistani forces had two injured. Somali casualties were far higher -- between 133 and 700 dead.

The part that really wasn't a good look for the Clinton government was that, after the battle, dead American soldiers were dragged through the streets of Mogadishu by enraged Somalis, in full view of a vast [or half-vast. Ed.] TV audience.

The UN gave up on Somalia in 1995, and, as today's news illustrates, the state is now a lawless and dangerous shithole, with no effective government -- a place to be avoided like the plague (which is said to be present there). Fear of another PR disaster kept the US government from increasing its involvement in Somalia and other regions. 

Some students of history (Republicans perhaps) say that what is now called "Somalia Syndrome" influenced the Clinton administration's decision not to intervene in the Rwandan genocide. However, the lesson of Somalia was apparently forgotten when new Muslim civil wars broke out in Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan.

VIDEO: Wandering Joe: Can anyone explain what happened here?

The following video was posted on "X" at 0927 EDT today. Watch in real time as the still-President of the United States of America disappears for two full minutes, with no excuse or explanation.

Ed. has been unable to find details of where or when this was shot, but it looks like an airport -- maybe DCA or IAD -- and may have been last night, following the made-for-TV prisoner swap with the Russians, which the lickspittle media are already hailing as the crowning achievement of the Biden presidensity.

Agent 3, who sent this to us, has some questions.

Did Hock Ptui (the whitish, long-haired person at Senile Joe's left) simply let go of him, hoping he would wander off into the night and never be seen again?

Did Brandon need for a bathroom break and mistake the plane for a port-a-potty?

When he re-emerged, did he think he'd flown to a different place? Is that why he thanked the crowd(ish) for being there?

Readers are invited to write their own guesses on the back of a postage stamp and mail it to Walt at the usual address. We might send a t-shirt to the most creative response. [Maybe not. Ed.]

But wait. Walt has three more questions.

Mr Biden handed the keys to the campaign bus to Ms Harris, but apparently didn't feel she was ready to assume the office of POTUS. So, he's still in command. What would have happened if there had been an emergency -- an Islamic terror attack, say -- while Joe was wherever he was?

And speaking of Hock Ptui, where has she been lately? She bailed on the National Association of Black Journalists annual meeting, and for twelve (12) days hasn't appeared at any venue where she could be asked questions of otherwise challenged to say something sensible. 

Could it be that Ms Harris has not yet been fully programmed by the operators (Hello, Barack and George!) to take over as President of America and Leader of the Free World (TM)? Americans should be told! 

"He's so weird," sez Hock Ptui

Ed. here. I don't know who's responsible for the spelling of the one-quarter Black candidate's new nickname (explained here), but I'm guessing he/she/it/xe's a product of American education, where phonics is no longer used to help people spell. 

Our style guide here at WWW has been amended to show that Ms Harris's nickname should be spelled "Hock Ptui". That's closer to the actual sound...

And while we're at it... "'Heels-up' Harris" is no longer acceptable. The more accurate appellation would be "'Knees-down' Harris". 

Yeah, I know. Name-calling is kind of juvenile. But Walt isn't the one calling President Trump "the Orange Man" or Senator Vance "weird".

Armageddon soon?

Here is the stack-4 headline on this morning's Breitbart News landing page: 

Report: Khamenei Orders Direct Strike on Israel 

On the Brink: Possibility of Iran-Israel War Looms 

White House Claims No Knowledge of Strike on Hamas Leader

Surrogates Speak, But Where Is Biden?

Walt's answer to BN 's question: Biden's hidin'!

No doubt Senile Joe is wondering if maybe he should have resigned the presidensity as well as his moribund candidacy. I, for one, am glad his finger, rather than Hawk Tuah's, is on the panic button. Chances are he'll be too tired or shy to press it!

Let me get to the Armageddon part. Safe in my bunker just up the road from Fort Mudge, I have been thinking about what Sacred Scipture has to say about the Last Days. If Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's Supreme Leader, truly desires to immanentize the eschaton, he's certainly got his sights fixed on the right target. 

Use this map to keep track to keep track of the latest news from the Muddle East. All the key places are there: Jerusalem, Gaza, Damascus, and -- indicated with the red marker -- a little place called Megiddo.

That's "Megiddo" as in "Mount Megiddo", which is not really a mountain but a "tell", a city built on top of a city built on top of another city, and so on for 5000 years. 

During the Bronze Age, Megiddo was an important Canaanite city-state. During the Iron Age, it was a royal city in the Kingdom of Israel.

Megiddo is mentioned only once in the New Testament of the Bible, but has sixteen mentions in the Old Testament, notably in Chapters 4 and 5 of the book of Judges.

Amont the judges, the only female, and the only one to be called a prophet is Deborah (aka Debbora), a decisive figure in the defeat of the Canaanites. This is a victory told in two accounts, a prose narrative in Judges 4 and a poem, known as the Song of Deborah, in Judges 5. At Judges 4:6 "she sent and called Barac [aka Barak!!! Ed.]...and said to him: The Lord God of Israel hath commanded thee: Go, and lead an army." 

And so he did. In the 15th century B.C., God gave the victory at the battle of Megiddo (Judges 5:19) through those who are willing to follow His lead. Deborah sings her song boldly to the Lord Himself (Judges 5:1–4). She is echoed by Barak and the people of Israel. She describes God as moving from outside of the land of Canaan into the land, bringing earthquakes and rainstorms with Him.

For Christians the word Megiddo is synonymous with the end of the world as mentioned in the Apocalypse or Saint John the Apostle (aka the Book of Revelation) 16:16. Other battles, besides the one mentioned in Judges, were fought at Megiddo, as recently as World War I. "Har-Megiddo" (Hebrew for the "mount" of "mountain" of Megiddo) or Armageddon, will be the site of the Final Battle.

At that time, according to Apocalypse 6:1-8, the God will have released onto the world four horsement, which we now call the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

The Four Horsemen appear with the opening of the first four of the seven seals that bring forth the cataclysm of the Apocalypse. 

The first horseman, a conqueror with a bow and crown, rides a white horse.

The second horseman is given a great sword and rides a red horse, symbolizing war and bloodshed.

The third carries a balance scale, rides a black horse, and symbolizes famine, one might think the Four Horsemen 

The fourth horseman rides a pale horse and is identified as Death.

Looking at what's happening in the Holy Land (or once-holy land) are here already. Are we now witnessing the Final Battle? I'm afraid to repeat my usual "Stay tuned."
