A man who was carrying a backpack containing two handguns (one of them an automatic), ammunition, and a Koran was arrested when he attempted to enter the hotel at Disneyland Paris. Police are searching for a suspected accomplice, who is also the man’s lover. To the great relief of the residents of the hotel, authorities say that the incident had nothing to do with Islam.
In other news, the first photos of the 15-year-old Somali migrant who killed an asylum center worker in Sweden reveal that he is six feet tall and has what appears to be a thick (but shaven) beard.

Just burn your passport… or eat it… and learn to say “I am Syrian” in German and English!
Moroccan “youths” know a good scam when they see one, and becoming Syrian refugees is their ticket to a prosperous future.

The Visegrád Four countries continue their staunch resistance against the “refugee” policies that the EU center is attempting to impose on them from the Winter Palace in Brussels. Viktor Orbán, Robert Fico, and other Central European leaders are featured in this report from the Preußische Allgemeine Zeitung. Many thanks to JLH for the translation:
“But I Won’t Be Part of the Lying”
In the east of the EU, resistance is forming against the political correctness in the asylum question
by Peter Entinger January 25, 2016
[Photo: United in rejection of asylum policy: Viktor Orbán (left) and Robert Fico (right) with other East Central European government heads at a meeting of the Visegrád Group.]
The attacks from the eastern part of the European Union on Angela Merkel’s invitation for unchecked immigration to Germany are unmistakable, and they are not coming from the fringes of the political spectrum.
The Romanian representative to the European parliament, Traian Ungureanu, characterized Angela Merkel and her invitation to unrestricted immigration to Germany as “the catastrophe of the century.” There is, he said, an “official censorship” in Germany; there is no freedom of expression concerning this subject. The Rumanian belongs to the faction in the European Parliament which also includes Merkel’s CDU.
Robert Fico, by contrast, is a social democrat and in fact chief executive of his country. The SPD issued a nice press release congratulating him on his election to prime minister of Slovakia. That is now embarrassing for German Social Democrats. Aydan Özoguz, the Federal Republic’s integration commissioner, criticized Fico’s recent comments as incomprehensible, “I am horrified that an EU member state is using the Cologne attacks to make a blanket derogation of a religious community,” she declared. Seeing the dimensions of the attacks on New Year’s Eve, Fico had announced that his country would categorically accept no more refugees. And furthermore, it was forbidden in Germany to speak of such abuses. In a panel discussion on Slovakian television, he said that the media was whitewashing the refugee problem; immigrants had become a “protected class.” “But I won’t be part of the lying.”
For years, the western — so-called “core” — of the EU has displayed comparatively great arrogance toward its eastern partner states. The former communists had to be taught about democracy and the market economy. Now the pendulum is swinging back. The news magazine Der Spiegel described the mood in the east of the EU: “They knew it. They warned about it. But Germany didn’t want to listen to them. Now it is faced with the consequences of its welcoming culture and tolerance — and through the evil of political correctness and opinion terrorism in the mainstream media, is plunging all of Europe into its destruction.” Referring to the incidents of New Year’s Eve, Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán declared that it is a manifestation of the crisis of liberalism that reports of the attacks on women were suppressed.
The National-Conservative government in Hungary has been a thorn in the side of EU leaders for a long time. Critics accuse Orbán of systematically restricting freedom of expression since he took office in 2010. The Hungarian prime minister was happy to return fire. In Hungary, he said, the press was much freer than in the West. In Germany, it was being seriously threatened. And the Orbán-friendly newspaper, Magyar Idök, journalistically accompanied the prime minister’s criticism: “The German state, instead of the protecting its citizens, is an accomplice to the immigrants, and accommodates the norms of gangs who attack its citizens.”
As a follow-up to the previous post, below are excerpts from a statement by the Russian foreign minister about the 13-year-old ethnic Russian girl in Germany who says she was abducted and raped by migrants. According to the notes accompanying the video:
Russia’s Foreign Minister: It is absolutely certain that Lisa did not disappear for 30 hours of her own volition.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov spoke at a press conference about the case of the 13-year-old Lisa, who according to her relatives was kidnapped by several migrants and raped for 30 hours, while the police on the other hand dispute that it ever happened.

Most readers will have already heard about the 13-year-old ethnic Russian girl in Germany who disappeared from home for thirty hours, and upon her return said that she had been abducted and raped by migrants. According to reports in Russian-language outlets after the incident, the police questioned her for three hours by herself, without the presence of a parent or guardian. Afterwards the police stated that the crime described by the girl had not taken place.
Since then the Russian community in Germany has been actively aroused over the issue, staging public demonstrations and talking to the media. According to the notes accompanying this video:
The International League of Russian-Germans demands an end to the chaotic asylum politics of Merkel. “Not one more can be let into the country, as long as there is no order with the millions that are already here”, says the chairman of the League, Heinrich Groth. At the same time he also asks for a “complete change” of the “whole migration system”. Groth was speaking during a demonstration, in which several thousand people, many of them Russian-Germans, expressed their solidarity with a 13-year-old girl. They were also protesting with a loud “Merkel must go” against the unlimited migration of illegals into Germany.

The following video shows excerpts from a talk given by an imam to his fellow “Canadian” Muslims. He tells them happily why they should be grateful to Prime Minister Justin “Baby Doc” Trudeau for all that he has done to help Muslims in the country he “runs”.
When the imam mentions “the Najashi”, he is referring to Ashama ibn Abjar, the Najashi or Emperor of Aksum in Ethiopia during the time of Mohammed. During his reign Ibn Abjar took in some Muslim refugees from Mecca, protected them, and eventually converted from Christianity to Islam.

In the wake of the New Year’s Eve Groping Jihad in Cologne, a group of women decided to do their part to help solve the crisis… by fighting against German “xenophobia”. They went around handing out roses to culture-enrichers, while getting it all on video to make sure no one missed their virtue-signaling.

Four young female suicide bombers exploded themselves in a market in the Nigerian town of Chibok, killing thirteen people and wounding thirty others. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but the kinetic activists of Boko Haram are the main suspects. The incident had nothing to do with Islam.
In other news, a schoolteacher in a northern Austrian town has caused controversy by rewriting the lyrics of a traditional song for a school performance, replacing the word “Gott” (God) with “Allah”. She said she did it because most of the 10-year-olds in her class are Muslims.

As a follow-up to his earlier reports about Tatjana Festerling, one of the most prominent leaders of PEGIDA, Rembrandt Clancy has translated and subtitled her speech in Dresden on January 18. Her words are a response to the announcement that the government plans to prosecute her for public statements, and a defiance of the corrupt judicial system that intends to try her.
Notice that the charge against her, Volksverhetzung, is an exact analog of hets mot folkgrupp (“incitement against a group”), the notorious statute used in a similar manner by the Swedish government to prosecute dissidents.
[T]he Nazis of today are now no longer brown, but are wearing the colours of the governing parties!
—Tatjana Festerling
The Pitchfork Affair by Rembrandt Clancy
Gates of Vienna recently reported the highlights of the speech to LEGIDA in Leipzig, given by Tatjana Festerling on 11 January 2016 in her capacity as one of the leaders at the forefront of PEGIDA in Dresden. What follows is the transcript and video of Frau Festerling’s subsequent speech to PEGIDA on 18 January 2016.
Central to her presentation is the pitchfork image, which two organs of the mainstream press used as the basis for filing notice to the Leipzig prosecutor’s office of ‘incitement to hatred’ (Volksverhetzung) against Frau Festerling. The complaint was pursuant to Article 130 of the German Criminal Code (Strafgesetzbuch (StGB)).
The offending sentence containing the pitchfork image reads as follows:
Were the majority of citizens in full possession of their faculties, they would take up pitchforks and beat these traitors and demagogic, people-agitating elites from the parliaments, from the courts, from the churches and from the publishing houses.
In her speech, Frau Festerling points to the German Criminal Code (Strafgesetzbuch, StGB) as the basis for the complaints. She describes § 130, the article on “incitement to hatred” or Volksverhetzung, as having been “specially prepared”, the context suggesting that this section of the StGB is intended for just such a challenge as PEGIDA is currently presenting to the governing parties.
Article 130 of the StGB is designed to control verbal and written speech a) against the subjective criterion of ‘incitement of hatred’ and b) toward groups or “segments of the population” rather than toward individuals as such. This combination, so some have argued, lends itself to selective enforcement, the incentive for its “specific preparation” deriving from the post WWI conflict between National Socialism and international Socialism. The former, of course, is now called “the Right”. To continue this line of thinking, the label “the Right” leads by expansion to the “Kampf gegen Rechts” (the struggle against the Right), to which Frau Festerling refers. Hence Article 130 facilitates the selective censorship of any political opinion which the government of the day might choose to label “right wing”.
Transcript
Tatjana Festerling: PEGIDA speech, 18 January 2016
The original German video source is broken into two parts totalling nearly 20 minutes. They can be accessed with the following links:
I have brought my pitchfork [Mistgabel] with me, which is actually a spading fork [Grabegabel]. But let’s stay with pitchfork! It is the tool of workers and farmers and has for a long time played a role in popular uprisings.
On account of my play on the pitchfork idea in the Leipzig speech, the managing director for the Federation of German Newspaper Publishers [Bundesverband Deutscher Zeitungsverleger (BDZV)] and the German Federation of Journalists [Deutsche Journalisten-Verband] reported me for ‘incitement to hatred’ (Volksverhetzung), § 130 [of the German Criminal Code, Strafgesetzbuch].
The intimidation of individuals is now being pushed to extremes. There is now a move at the very top to criminalise one’s own countrymen who are critical.
The young woman featured in the video below was harassed and assaulted by a culture-enricher in Cologne. Fortunately for her, her injuries were minimal — she and her friend escaped without providing their assailant with the “easy meat” he had been looking for.
The girl and her mother are interviewed by a Moroccan-German journalist. One of the first things he brings up with the mother is — surprise! — her potential “racism”, and the mother acknowledges that yes, she is worried that she might be a “racist”.
What if the “youth” had actually raped her daughter? Or severely injured her? Or even killed her? Would Mom still be concerned about how “racist” she might appear?
What extremity of violence has to take place before people abandon this fetishistic obsession with “racism”?
After interviewing the two native Germans, the reporter goes down to Enrichertown to talk to some of his fellow hyphenated-Germans. They express their shock — shock! — at what a North African did to the young ladies. They don’t understand how such a thing can be — no one back in Morocco ever does anything like that. But then again, they never seem to consider the fact that there is far, far less “uncovered meat” walking the streets of Rabat or Tangier than there is in Cologne…

The following radio interview (audio only) was conducted recently with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Hungary is one of the “Visegrad Four” (the others being Poland, Czechia, and Slovakia). These four countries are resolutely resisting the European Union’s push to distribute “refugees” among the member states through mandatory quotas. Mr. Orbán was the first leader to order the closing of borders and the construction of fences, while demanding that the Schengen rules be enforced as they were written.
Notice the prime minister’s shrewd strategy for making certain that Hungary can build additional border fences when required: he arranged for the domestic production of fencing material in the country’s prison system, thereby avoiding any chokepoints that might suddenly emerge in international markets. The level of domestic production has allowed Hungary to export fencing to Slovenia, Macedonia and Bulgaria — prompting a German newspaper to refer to Mr. Orbán as “the patron saint of the Balkans”.
Hundreds of years ago the Moriori, of the Chatham Islands, took a solemn vow of peace known as Nunuku’s Law. The decision to uphold this sacred law in the face of aggression in 1835 had tragic consequences. They were slaughtered, enslaved, and dispossessed of their lands. The Moriori lived on Chatham Island and Pitt Island, two islands in the Chatham Islands group, about 700 kilometers south-east of Wellington.
Nunuku’s Law: Isolated from mainland New Zealand, the Moriori developed a unique culture based on a law of peace. This was called Nunuku’s Law, after the ancestor Nunuku-whenua. After seeing bloody conflict between the Hamata people and later arrivals, he banned murder and the eating of human flesh forever. After 1791, when the British ship Chatham called at Rēkohu, Moriori came into contact with Europeans and Māori who came as crew on sealing and whaling vessels. Some settled on the islands and lived alongside the Moriori. This relative peace was shattered in 1835 when Maoris from two tribes, both from Taranaki, arrived in the Chatham Islands in search of new territories and resources.
In 1835, 24 generations after the Moriori chief Nunuku had forbidden war, the Moriori welcomed about 900 people from the two Māori tribes. Originally from Taranaki on New Zealand’s North Island, they had voyaged from Wellington on an overcrowded European vessel, the Rodney. They arrived severely weakened, but were nursed back to health by their Moriori hosts. However, they soon revealed hostile intentions and embarked on a reign of terror.
Stunned, the Moriori called a council of 1,000 men at Te Awapātiki to debate their response. The younger men were keen to repel the invaders, and argued that even though they had not fought for many centuries, they outnumbered the newcomers two-to-one and were a strong people. But the elders argued that Nunuku’s Law was a sacred covenant with their gods and could not be broken. The consequences for Moriori were devastating.
Although the total number of Moriori first slaughtered was said to be around 300, hundreds more were enslaved and later died. Some were killed by their captors. Others, horrified by the desecration of their beliefs, died of ‘kongenge’ or despair [often suicide by leaping from cliffs]. According to records made by their elders, 1,561 Moriori died between 1835 and 1863, when they were released from slavery. Many succumbed to diseases introduced by Europeans, but large numbers died at the hands of the Maoris. In 1862 only 101 remained. When the last known full-blooded Moriori died in 1933, many thought this marked the extinction of a race.
The Maori and the Chatham Islanders
On Chatham Island, 800 kilometers east of New Zealand, lived the Moriori, who were related to the Maori. They were hunters and gatherers, sparse in population and, perhaps because they were few in number and isolated, they were unpracticed at warfare. In late 1835 about 900 Maori from New Zealand landed on Chatham Island. The Maori were armed with guns, clubs and axes. They announced to the Moriori that they were their slaves. Moriori chiefs conferred with each other and drew from their religious heritage. [Nunuku’s Law.] They offered the Maori friendship and a share of the island’s resources. The attempt to appease the Maori failed. The Maori began killing the Moriori, including women and children. The Maori put people in pens and feasted on the tender meat of Moriori children. A Maori conqueror described it:
We took possession, in accordance with our customs and we caught all the people. Not one escaped. Some ran away from us. These we killed, and others we killed – but what of that? It was in accordance with our custom.
The lesson of Chatham Island is that people who live in comfortable circumstances for enough generations to forget the horrors of anarchy and total war, will often let down their guard to a fatal degree. The examples I will compare are Chatham Island in 1835, the Island of Plenty from my Alienork Way allegory, and Europe today. It is my observation that, in a well-calculated series of defined steps and expected responses, alien Orks (taken from “The Alienork Way”) can overcome and subdue even an outwardly more affluent, powerful and successful society.
A 23-year-old Palestinian-American named Samy Mohamed Hamzeh (Mohammed Coefficient: 100%) has been arrested by the FBI for plotting an attack on a Masonic temple in Milwaukee. Mr. Hamzeh originally planned to travel to Israel to kill Israeli soldiers in the West Bank, but that proved too difficult, so he decided to go after the Masons instead. Authorities are not filing any terrorism charges against the suspected alleged would-be perpetrator, and although he said his planned actions were intended to “defend the Muslim religion”, they reassured the public that the incident had nothing to do with Islam.
All right, all right; I cannot tell a lie: I made that last part up.
In other news, the Polish interior minister says that his country will veto any attempt by Brussels to impose mandatory refugee quotas on EU member states. Meanwhile, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico says the EU is “committing ritual suicide” with its migration policies.
