1. I hope he is a member of Le Front Nationale.

   French : “noyer le poisson” (drown the fish) should be translated as “to muddy the water”, in the context of the text I’d say “cover their track”

3. 11.31: le message que vous êtes NU (not NUL, hence not NIL)
   so it should read: the message that you’re Bared Naked/ Helpless

4. Thank you Aldo. Very basic stuff really. Raging feminized insanity. I hope England and the US are still capable of paying attention once France in general goes Beirut and Balkans.

5. Bare Naked, oops

6. Exactly correct! Until the West can bring forth out of their guts and entrails such an anger and force of belief, NEVER to bend their necks, never to compromise, then prepare for devastation and abomination, as it has happened so many times before.

   This is a battle of wills!

7. Chasing ISIS all over the region will give Putin an excuse to stay as long as he wants, work with Iraq and Iran on an oil cartel, build up his Meditarranean terminal, pretend he is the west’s savior and protector, thoroughly humiliate NATO and the US, save Or dump Assad, affect Turkey and the Kurds, affect Iran’s nukes, gain hundreds of business deals. How clever a move is this? How much has he leveraged his power?

   A strong American military in Syria and the eastern Med would have prevented this, I bet.

   • Putin is in favor of a KURDISH HOMELAND!

     Me too.

   • William, of course Putin will shore up what he believes will be to Russia’s advantage, and after the mess that Obama has made of the Middle East, why shouldn’t he?

     One of Putin’s goals is to stabilize the M.E. because if left as it now is, confrontation with the West will eventually have to be considered. I do not believe that Putin wants that.

     Putin has been sitting back and gauging the outcome of the self-destruction of the West and the American administration’s wilful destruction of the Middle East. Someone had to act to try and limit the damage being done otherwise we will find ourselves, as the Good Book states, in Armageddon.

     Putin recently gave an open discussion with a number of American journalists, (OK, so let’s call them journalists for brevity purposes) you can catch that video on the SHTF Plan blog, and after having viewed it I have to say that I am impressed with the man’s knowledge of what is really going on around him.

     He was frank and very candid, and I believe he was being honest in that everything he responded to as he spoke was without reference to notes or other hints to assist him in his answers. I do realize in this age of deceit that everything must be considered as suspect until bona fides can be checked and then double checked, but Putin comes across as a person who does not have imperialistic ambitions as America has had ever since the end of the Second World War.

     If it ever happens, I can visualize Trump and Putin getting on very well together.

8. This guy talks plainly and makes a lot of sense.

   • He sounds like an old guy at my church who worked in Naval intelligence under IKE. Says we are sittin’ ducks and since our PREZ is in with the Muslim brotherhood, our goose is just about cooked.

     The other night he said:
     ” I am glad I will not be here much longer, but I sure cry for my grandkids and great grand kids too”.

     • Despair is part and parcel of old age, and this guy may be “crying for his grandkids” but he does them no favors by telling them it’s going to be bad, bad, bad after he’s gone.

       Maybe it softens the hard edges of his own mortality to say these things out loud but it’s certainly no help to those he leaves behind. And it is *definitely* not a Christian message. If you look around the world, notice that Christianity seems to flourish where it is most persecuted – China, South Africa, Islam states, etc. For those courageous souls, death is likely…and that is how the early Christian ecclesiology operated. For us, in our comfortable pews, there is much outrage but not much action…the Tea Party being an energetic exception.

       • I agree Dymphna. I found myself countering a comment left on Andrew Bolts blog yesterday from an elderly male who had run up the white flag.

         I tore strips off him.

       • Dymphna,

         Speaking of South Africa, regard this report from France24:

         http://www.france24.com/en/20151002-video-reporters-south-africa-farmers-risk-crime

         It’s actually a halfway decent piece until the liberal reporters start bending over backwards to deny there is any racial component to the violence.

         I’m also not a big fan of the race traitors in the rap group that try to claim, “we had no idea our violent lyrics about killing white farmers would incite people to kill white farmers…no one could have imagined…”

     • ‘Ye of little faith’ or words to that effect. We are responsible now. I imagine when the moment of truth arrives coulda, woulda, shoulda will only serve to turn the temperature up.

9. Poignant, Lady D, but what is he supposed to do, or to put it another way, until civil war actually breaks out, what can he do without running afoul of the so-called authorities?
   Serious question, as I’m old and despairing too…

   • Peter, every age wrestles with one or another aspect of the human condition. For the old, it is coming to terms with that final existential fact: we live with a foreshortened future. Now that many European countries (and California) are offering the quiet exit of euthanasia, that despair becomes more complicated and tangled.

     People whose spiritual constitution offers them the prospect of some kind of continuance after death aren’t exempt, either, though I often hear this from those who are constitutionally aligned with atheism. Just as a believer has trouble understanding how an atheist confronts death, so the atheist sees the believer as choosing a “false comfort”. But even the most spiritual of us find it hard.

     My aunt was a Franciscan nun, surrounded by her loving community (they sure liked to laugh). As the end came nearer (heart disease) she became afraid of death; her uncharacteristic fear puzzled me. After much research and thinking about her final years, I came to the conclusion that medical techology got in the way of her being able to say goodbye. She submitted to a SECOND heart by-pass procedure. Since she knew from experience what lay ahead – the inevitable deep depression that follows having your heart lifted from your body – she caved. It never occurred to her that she could tell the doctor ‘no thanks’.

     I have the same tired heart and blood vessels but I will never submit to surgery. This makes doctors extremely uncomfortable. So I finally cornered my family doc into telling me what would happen. “Before all this wonderful technology, how did people like me die?” She said I’d probably have sudden cardiac arrest. I hope she’s right: that is a good death, in my eyes. And it means that each day has to be lived as though it *might* be the last, since in reality no matter how old you are, that could be the case.

     I just heard about the death of a young man we know who suffered from Crohn’s Disease. I hadn’t known he developed bowel cancer, and I don’t know how much treatment he suffered before being allowed to surrender. He was 26. I feel very sorry for his parents, especially his mother. And though I can’t say so to her, in my mind he is free at last. This is also the way I have come to view my daughter’s death: she suffered so. [I had no idea there were three forms of migraine headaches; she had them all, including one in the limbic area that affected her vocal chords. While in its grip, she sounded like a cartoon character – if she hadn’t been in such pain, it would have been funny.]

     Maybe, Peter, a way to begin addressing the despair of old age is to realize it’s supposed to be there. A second way is to realize that death – the process – is not something passive. We are not acted upon but instead participate. Only no one comes back to tell us this. A few days before my mother died she said to me, “this is too much work for so little return”. I agreed with her that it was a mighty labor to fight it off. This was on my birthday, and I drove her to the hospital where she was admitted for pneumonia. The doctor examined her that night (his own dying father was three rooms down) and said, “you’re looking better. Let’s plan on having you go home in a few days”. She died several days later, at 3:00 am – well-known as the time the body is at its lowest ebb – but I think she’d have preferred a deathbed drama…oh wait, I’m thinking of her younger self. In her last days she chose this and simply let go…

     • Oh,and I think she chose “home” rather than returning to my house.

     • ‘Anticipation of the actual event is worse than the event itself.’

       Quoted by someone who was to have his head removed from his body the next day. Can’t remember who though.

       But, acceptance of our eventual death goes a long way in determining how one will handle that time when it arrives, as it surely must. My Mother passed away at home in May this year after not accepting treatment for pancreatic cancer. My Mother was one brave lady who I can only hope to emulate when my time arrives.

       • Your mother was indeed courageous. That’s a terrible disease and the “treatments” are no real help, they just prolong the suffering.

     • Very thoughtful and moving, thank you for sharing your thoughts.

       Well, each of us has to find their own path of resistance. For some, this will mean joining some form of militia, others will try to build islands of friendship and mutual assistance.

       There is a broad spectrum of choices, depending on one’s tolerance for personal risk and a constant re-evaluation of threats and opportunities.

       I don’t think it is defeatist to say that things are going to get worse. Even if by some supernatural trick all illegal immigration were halted tomorrow, the ones already there are going to present more problems with every passing year. In any case, illegal immigration by millions and millions of Muslims won’t stop any time soon.

       Therefore living standards and the quality of life will keep moving downward. Violence will increase, some of the readers of this blog will themselves be affected.

       A counter-offensive — deporting a million of them, closing the borders airtight, punishing Erdogan for opening the floodgates on his end — is but a pipe dream. Let’s face it, we are playing defense now, trying to fall back in orderly fashion from one position to another. There’s nothing dishonorable about fighting defensive battles, even as we keep losing ground.

       If some of us do nothing more than help each other with acts of compassion and kindness, that is worthy of commendation. I only hope that none of the readers of this blog, despairing of a reconquista that does not come, gives up and defects to the enemy — i.e., convert to Islam or become a snitch and an informer on the resistance.

       • Addendum: Coming generations perhaps won’t experience their lives as a constant rearguard action. They won’t have the memories of a Europe in which people did not have to support a growing sullen, resentful, unproductive and frequently violent Muslim minority with their taxes.

         They may listen to their parents and grandparents bemoan the decline, but they are living in their own present. People adapt when they have to. Eventually, though, the overspill from the Muslim youth bulge swamps what is left of Europe. So, perhaps they won’t be content. Perhaps they will curse us. “Why did you let this happen? Why did you bequeath this horrid life to us?”

         I won’t have an answer then.

10. Aldo, 100% spot on, appeasement is the pathway to defeat.

    • As the French and British should well know.
