Violent rioting by migrants in France has intensified, moving to the heart of Paris. Rioters burned dumpsters just a short distance away from the Gare du Nord, a major rail terminus in Paris. Tourists are being warned to stay away from the capital.
In other news, Nigel Farage, the former leader of UKIP, has invited Donald Trump to give an address to Britons at a large public venue such as Wembley Stadium. The subject came up because there is a move afoot in Parliament to forbid President Trump from speaking at the House of Commons.

The Globalists Strike Back With a Major Push Toward a Cashless Society
Their agenda may be on the rocks in the United States at the moment, but that doesn’t mean that the globalists are giving up. In fact, a major push toward a cashless society is being made in the European Union right now. Last May we learned that the 500 euro note is being completely eliminated, and just a few weeks ago the European Commission released a new “Action Plan” which instructs member states to explore “potential upper limits to cash payments”. In the name of “fighting terrorism”, this “Action Plan” discusses the benefits of “prohibitions for cash payments above a specific threshold” and it says that those prohibitions should include “virtual currencies (such as BitCoin) and prepaid instruments (such as pre-paid credit cards) when they are used anonymously.”
This new document does not mention what an appropriate threshold would be for member states, but we do know that Spain already bans certain cash transactions above 2,500 euros, and Italy and France already ban cash transactions above 1,000 euros.
This is a perfect way to transition to a cashless society without creating too much of an uproar. By setting a maximum legal level for cash transactions and slowly lowering it, in effect you can slowly but surely phase cash out without people understanding what is happening.
And there are many places in Europe where it is very difficult to even use cash at this point. In Sweden, many banks no longer take or give out cash, and approximately 95 percent of all retail transactions are entirely cashless. So even though Sweden has not officially banned cash, using cash is no longer practical in most situations. In fact, many tourists are shocked to find out that they cannot even pay bus fare with cash…
In a truly cashless society, governments would be able to track where everybody is and what everybody is doing all the time. And in order to have access to the cashless system, people would have to comply with whatever requirements governments wanted to impose on their helpless populations. The potential for tyranny that this would create would be off the charts, but very few people seem greatly alarmed by the move toward a cashless system all over the globe.
Even in the United States there are calls for a cashless system. For example, the former chief economist for the IMF wrote an article for the Wall Street Journal not too long ago in which he recommended the elimination of the $100 bill…

Flynn Just the Beginning if Trump Doesn’t Clean House
Globalist intelligence operatives have started a war with Trump
The resignation of General Flynn is part of an ongoing effort by the military-industrial complex to sabotage President Trump and re-assert control over foreign policy.
Sources tell the Free Beacon, “Last night’s resignation was their first major win, but unless the Trump people get serious about cleaning house, it won’t be the last.”

Former Obama Officials, Loyalists Waged Secret Campaign to Oust Flynn
The abrupt resignation Monday evening of White House national security adviser Michael Flynn is the culmination of a secret, months-long campaign by former Obama administration confidantes to handicap President Donald Trump’s national security apparatus and preserve the nuclear deal with Iran, according to multiple sources in and out of the White House who described to the Washington Free Beacon a behind-the-scenes effort by these officials to plant a series of damaging stories about Flynn in the national media.

Former NSA Analyst: Intel Community Vows Trump Will “Die in Jail”
According to former NSA analyst John Schindler, elements of the intelligence community have gone “nuclear” against President Donald Trump and are now vowing “he will die in jail”.
Schindler, a former professor at the Naval War College, is known to be provocative with his tweets, but what he revealed earlier today is still raising eyebrows.
Schindler was asked by another Twitter user, “What do you think is going on inside NatSec right now after Trump’s “intelligence” tweet this morning?”
That was a reference to Trump tweeting that information was being illegally leaked by members of the CIA and NSA to the Washington Post and the New York Times.
Schindler responded, “Now we go nuclear. IC war going to new levels. Just got an EM fm senior IC friend, it began: “He will die in jail.”

Schindler clearly sides with whoever his contacts are within the intel community, given that he also tweeted, “US intelligence is not the problem here. The President’s collusion with Russian intelligence is.Many details, but the essence is simple.”
The former NSA analyst then speculated that a Trump supporter would show up at an intelligence center armed and try to carry out a terror attack in retribution before being gunned down.

Krauthammer on Flynn: ‘This is a Cover Up Without a Crime’
Syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer said on Fox News’ “Special Report with Bret Baier” that there are “a lot of mysteries” surrounding Gen. Michael Flynn’s resignation.
Where Flynn erred was lying to Vice President Mike Pence about speaking with the Russian ambassador, Krauthammer argued, it was not the actual conversation itself that was the problem.
“It’s because he lied about something material to the vice president of the United States-left him hanging, telling a lie in public. You cannot do that,” he said. “Now I’ve maintained from the beginning this is a cover up without a crime. There is nothing wrong with an incoming national security adviser talking with the Russians, talking about sanctions with the Russians. It’s not illegal, it’s not improper. But you can’t lie to the vice president about it.”

Meetup.com Fueling Anti-Trump, Soros-Funded Protests
Networking site pressures members to protest Trump
Not content with staying neutral, Meetup.com is openly promoting George Soros-funded, anti-Trump protests nationwide by giving them top billing on its site.
The mobile version of the social networking site, which facilitates offline group meetings based on common interests in a given city, is pressuring members to “Meetup to #Resist” if they’re “concerned about where the country is heading,” which of course is a reference to the Trump administration.
“Join others who care about what’s happening to democracy, human rights, social justice, equality, sustainability, and other issues in your area,” Meetup.com declared, rather blatantly. “It’s ok if you’ve never been to a protest, march, or town hall — start here.”
“You really can make a difference.”
Despite calling the movement “Resist,” Meetup.com has partnered with Soros-funded, establishment foundations, including the Anti-Defamation League, Amnesty International and Planned Parenthood.
Meetup.com isn’t simply giving Soros operatives a platform like anyone else; the site is joining forces with the anti-populist globalists.
The site also provides a handy map showing the closest #Resist chapters from your location, including chapters in the UK and Australia, which are well outside Trump’s jurisdiction but still serve as beachheads for Soros to stop rising populist movements worldwide.

Mika Will Not Invite Kellyanne Conway to Morning Joe Anymore, Because She Doesn’t Like Fake News
Here we go. They got Flynn and now they’re out for Conway, Miller and then Bannon.
The daughter of the founder of all globalist neocon shills, Mika Brzezinski, said this morning that she’d no longer have Conway on her show because she doesn’t like fake news. Then her cucked partner, Joe Scarborough, chimed in, essentially calling Conway persona non grata — painting her as an ego driven media whore who isn’t in any of the White House meetings and has no idea what’s going on.
Really? What sources inside the White House can confirm this? Joe furthered saying that ‘any reporter’ can ask people inside the White House about Conway’s access to the briefings and they’ll confirm that she’s, basically, cast aside in the dark — left to doing teevee shows, perpetuating fake news stories.
The lazy thinking demonstrated here is astounding. Clearly, this is a smear campaign by the shills at MSNBC, in an effort to deride Conway. I find it next to impossible to believe that a spokeswoman for the White House would be treated in this manner, especially 3 weeks into the administration. The only fake news taking place here, ironically, are from the shills at MSNBC.

Outlawing Microchipping Humans Not So Far-Fetched, Nevada Senator Says

Senate Bill 109 would make it a Class C felony to require someone to be implanted with a radio frequency identifier, such as microchips placed in pets.

Priebus Next to Go as Trump Strikes Back Over Flynn
Trump loyalists place Priebus next on chopping block
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The purge of Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn engineered by White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, formally the head of the Republican National Committee in Washington, is the “Pearl Harbor” for Trump loyalists — a devastating attack that determines for Trump supporters that Priebus, an elite GOP Washington insider, must go.
The concern among Trump loyalists is that now that Priebus has succeeded in getting rid of Flynn, his next targets will be Trump top advisors Steve Miller, Steve Bannon, and Kellyanne Conway — all of whom D.C. insiders are planning must go if Priebus is to succeed in sabotaging Trump’s revolutionary agenda.
Infowars has established that Priebus is the Chief Leaker in the White House, responsible for feeding the Trump-hating mainstream media that daily dominate the White House news room with “red meat,” including the demeaning leak to the Washington Post that Trump is “isolated,” a “clueless child,” wandering about in a bathrobe (that Trump does not own), who’s presiding over a “White House in disarray.”
Priebus, after ensconcing himself in the seat of power as White House Chief of Staff by promising Trump that he alone could manage renegade GOP leaders in Congress — including House Speaker Ryan and Senate Majority Leader McConnell — must be made to bear the full responsibility for mismanaging the failed rollout of Trump’s temporary immigration ban and for not containing the controversy over Flynn and the Russians.

WikiLeaks: ‘Destabilization Campaign’ Responsible for Flynn Resignation
Online publishing organization points finger at intelligence community, Democrats and media
A “destabilization campaign” by opponents of President Donald Trump is responsible for National Security Adviser Michael T. Flynn’s resignation, WikiLeaks alleged Tuesday.
The online publishing organization specifically blamed the intelligence community, the Democratic Party and the media in a tweet surrounding the incident.
“Trump’s National Security Advisor Michael Flynn resigns after destabilization campaign by US spies, Democrats, press,” WikiLeaks stated.

The situation at the Oroville Dam has stabilized for the moment, but more storms are coming this week. When those storms arrive, will authorities be able to avoid the kind of catastrophic incident that almost happened over the weekend? As you will see below, it is being admitted that a collapse of the emergency spillway at Lake Oroville would have sent a “30-foot wall of water coming out of the lake” and into local communities. At one point authorities were concerned that such a collapse was imminent, and that is why they ordered the evacuation of nearly 200,000 people. But many are also concerned that more storms could ultimately cause a catastrophic failure of the infrastructure at the dam that would bring about a “worst case scenario”. According to the experts, if that were to occur we could potentially see a 100 foot tsunami of water wiping out entire cities.
At 770 feet tall, the Oroville Dam is 44 feet taller than the Hoover Dam. In fact, it is actually the tallest dam in the United States, and it is a crucial part of the network that supplies water for southern California and the key agricultural regions of the state.
The dam was built between 1962 and 1968, and that was during an era when great infrastructure projects were happening all over America. But now many of those great infrastructure projects are showing their age and are crumbling right in front of our eyes.
So how did we get to the point where entire towns were almost wiped out? The following is a pretty good summary of the events that we have witnessed so far…

The Real Threat Behind M-103 is ‘Mission Creep’
“Mission creep,” that’s the real threat of M-103, the anti-Islamophobia motion proposed by Mississauga Liberal MP Iqra Khalid that is likely to be debated in the House of Commons on Wednesday.
There are fundamental problems with the wording of the motion, of course. As currently written, the motion singles out Islam for special protection.
While purporting to oppose all forms of religious discrimination, the only form specifically mentioned is Islamophobia. And no definition of Islamophobia is given, leaving the door wide open to the broadest possible interpretations — including public statements condemning radical Islamic terrorism and even academic papers questioning whether Islam truly is a religion of peace.
[Comment: M-103 is the came’s nose. The end goal is persecution and criminal penalties for critics of islam and refugee migration.]

A Century in the Making, Athens Set for First Mosque Since Ottoman Times
Athens’s half a million Muslims are set to get their first official mosque in more than a century.
The city has not had a formal mosque since it drove out occupying Ottomans in 1833, and Deputy Foreign Minister Yiannis Amanantidis told Parliament last year that it was the only European capital “to be deprived of such a religious space.”
For years Muslims have resorted to praying in hundreds of makeshift sites, in crowded basements or dark warehouses targeted by racist attackers.
In May, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras declared building a mosque long overdue. The government, he said, would push ahead “out of respect for the Muslim residents in our capital, but also because we are obliged to actively defend our values.”

‘Have You No Shame?’ Le Pen Slams Brussels as Canada-EU Trade Deal Passed Amid Protests
BRUSSELS politicians voted to pass a landmark trade deal between Canada and the EU this afternoon following a fractious debate between MEPs and mass protests outside the parliament building in Strasbourg.
French presidential hopeful Marine Le Pen launched a blistering attack on the proposed deal today, saying it would further enrich the powerful at the expense of working families.
She raged: “The CETA agreement was carefully hidden from citizens because none of you can justify it. You voted on it in private because debating in public, that’s something you hate.
“When citizens understand all of this they will never trust you again. That is why this is a terrible agreement. It will undermine thousands of jobs in Europe.”
To loud applause she blasted: “Are you not ashamed? You’re giving away our rights to legislate and you’re robbing our citizens of the protection of their rights that they expect from their representatives.
“You’re making it possible for multinationals to attack member states so you make sure no new legislation will displease them.

Police: There Are No ‘No-Go Zones’ In Sweden
When the police authority a few years ago identified over 50 areas that needed prioritising, it was turned into a story about ‘no-go zones’ in Sweden. There is no such thing, says local police chief Erik Åkerlund.
Åkerlund was much surprised in 2014 when he read a column by Per Gudmundson in the newspaper Svenska Dagbladet with the headline “55 no-go zones in Sweden.”
The police do not use the term ‘no-go zones,’ but Gudmundson argued it was a good way to describe a place where, quoting the report, “the public in several instances feel that it is the criminals who run the areas” and where “police cannot carry out their job.”
The term ‘no-go zones’ quickly caught on, and it continues to do the rounds in social media today. But Erik Åkerlund thinks this is not a serious way of describing the work they do in the prioritised areas.

Police on Wednesday searched the homes of four Turkish Muslim preachers on suspicion they spied for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s government, officials said.
The imams are accused of reporting on Turkish followers of US-based Islamic preacher Fethullah Gulen, who Erdogan blames for last July’s failed coup attempt against him.
The four imams allegedly passed on information through the Turkish consulate in the western city of Cologne to the Turkish Religious Affairs Directorate, known as Diyanet, prosecutors said.
“The purpose of today’s searches is to gather further evidence on the alleged activities of the accused,” prosecutors said after the raids in the western states of North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate.

GoDaddy CEO Blake Irving said this month that “with so much technical illiteracy in the US,” it’s no wonder companies use overseas workers on H-1B visas to fill science, tech and engineering positions. Not enough Americans are up to scratch, he said, and tightly capping the number of graduate immigrants allowed into America will “cripple” the nation’s tech sector.
Writing on his blog, Irving made a rallying cry to preserve the H-1B visa program at least until the American education system cranks out many more students into STEM degrees. He fears it will be disastrous for Silicon Valley if the pipeline of trained workers is suddenly shut off by President Trump’s planned overhaul of the work-permit scheme.
About 85,000 H-1B visas are issued each year to degree-holding foreigners to work in the US. American corps are known to use the work permits to draft in cheap labor: foreigners, grateful for the opportunity to live and work in the Land of the Free, accept less pay than the US citizens they end up replacing.
“With so much technical illiteracy in the US, the H-1B visa program has become America’s secret weapon warding off economic catastrophe,” Irving wrote.
[Comment: Liar. H-1B visa workers are cheaper and can be driven harder (ie more unpaid hours) under threat of job loss and consequent loss of H-1B — ultimately being forced to leave the US. The only ones making money are the globalist companies in the States and the globalist companies in India that provide the H-1B workers. Tech industry clearly seeks to depress wages for engineers and other technical people, to ensure those fat CEO bonuses. Comments at the end of the article make for interesting reading. Eg: “ A common trick is to load up a job description with requirements that no one in the world could meet. When this fictitious person can not be found in the US then they file for H-1B visa and get someone to lie on the paperwork. “ ]

EU: Migrant Deaths in Central Mediterranean Rise Despite Aid
The chief of the European border and coast guard agency says migrant deaths in the Mediterranean on the Libya-to-Italy smuggling route have increased to a record level despite ever more rescue vessels trying to prevent mass drownings.
Frontex Executive Director Fabrice Leggeri said Wednesday “we face a kind of sad paradox” that as the international community increases efforts to send more rescue ships close to Libya, smuggling rings pack ever more people onto unseaworthy boats and push them out toward the open sea.
He said the recorded number of migrant drowning deaths in 2016 — 4,579 — might be much less than the true loss of life. He says this “is tragic and the reasons are well known: the number of migrants now (arriving) on very small dinghies.”

Germany: Pakistani Man Sexually Assaults 6-Year-Old Girl, Gets Light Sentence
Barbaric predator “didn’t care” how young his victim was.
An immigrant in Germany has been given a mild 20 month suspended jail sentence for sexually abusing a little girl in an asylum seekers home in Berlin that led to her father being gunned down by police.
The victim’s mother Zaman burst into tears when she heard the verdict and cried out in the courtroom: “How can this be? He should be locked up in a place where he cannot do this again. He destroyed my life on this day.”
The court heard how the 27-year-old man lured the six-year-old girl away to a quiet spot where he could assault her away from prying eyes.
The attacker, Pakistani refugee Tayyab M. told the court in Germany it “didn’t’ matter” to him whether he had sex with a child or an adult — just that the act itself was completed for his gratification…
As police led Tayyab away in handcuffs the girl’s father lunged at him with a knife screaming: “You will not survive!”
As he was being led away the little girl’s father made the lunge for her attacker which cost him his life.
“He ignored several calls to stop, whereupon several policemen opened fire on him,” said a police spokesman. The fatal bullet entered his heart.
Ahmed H., 30, said: “I heard at least three gunshots. He went down. He died in a clinic leaving behind his wife and his three children aged, six, three and ten.”
Bodo Pfalzgraf, the police union leader in Berlin, defended the officers who killed him — now at the centre of a probe — saying: “The officers had to prevent lynch mob justice and also protect themselves in a life-threatening situation.”
Judges at the trial said they handed down a mild sentence — agreed with by the prosecution — because the abuser had confessed his crime. Admitting to his actions spared the child from having to give evidence against him.

Paris Deploys ‘Anti-Migrant Boulders’ To Thwart Makeshift Refugee Camps
First there were anti-migrant grills to block off pavements, now Paris City Hall has rolled in large boulders to dissuade migrants from setting up camps outside an official humanitarian centre in Paris.
The boulders appeared under a flyover at Porte de La Chapelle in the 18th arrondissement, of northern Paris, where migrants often sleep rough while waiting for one of the 400 spaces in the nearby official humanitarian welcome centre.
The boulders were put in place by the Paris City Hall, without the knowledge of Emmaus solidarité, the charity that runs the humanitarian migrant centre which opened November 2016.

Terrifying Brawl: 100 UK Bound Migrants Involved in Violent Clashes at Motorway Rest Stop
The fight between rival Eritrean and Sudanese gangs was reportedly sparked by an argument over a “strategically located piece of land” — which both sides tried to claim — that “quickly escalated out of control,” an anonymous police source told AFP.
The fight took place near a motorway rest area in Steenvoorde, a northern French town located some 25 miles from the Grande-Synthe migrant camp, which is home to thousands of undocumented migrants.
Britain-bound trucks often stop at the Steenvoorde rest area on their way to the UK.

The Era of Human-Animal Hybrid Chimeras Has Begun
Human-animal mutant creatures make for great material for science fiction writers, but we aren’t supposed to be creating them in the real world. In so many ways, the technological advancements that we have made as a society are outpacing our ability to handle those advancements, and this field is certainly a glaring example of that reality.
Just because we can create human-animal hybrid chimeras does not mean that we should. Genetic modification is a particularly dangerous science, because we are literally tinkering with the future of our planet. And when it comes to humans and animals, those are two things that definitely should not mix. Unfortunately, they are being mixed, and this could have enormous implications as our society plunges into a very uncertain future.
During all of the chaos surrounding the 2016 presidential election, a stunning announcement by the National Institutes of Health went unnoticed by almost everyone. The following comes from a Huffington Post article entitled “The Island of Dr. Moreau For Real”…
The thought of creating human-animal hybrids just for the purpose of growing organs which will be used for medical transplants is beyond disturbing. But this is what our scientists actually intend to do.
And just this week, the National Academies of Sciences and Medicine has released a brand new report that endorses the genetic modification of humans. The following comes from a Gizmodo article…
Today, the National Academies of Sciences and Medicine released a major new report and recommendations to ensure any such research done stateside in the future is performed responsibly and ethically.
The implicit message is that whether we like it or not, a future of gene-edited humans is on its way.
Messing around with the genetic material of humans means that you are literally messing around with the future of the human race.
And once this genetic material starts being passed from generation to generation, it will literally be impossible to put the genie back into the bottle ever again.
Fortunately, there are some experts that are extremely alarmed by this new report…

What in the world has happened to America? We live in a society where perversion, sexual violence and occult rituals have become essential elements of our entertainment. In fact, these days it seems like we can’t get through a major awards show or a Super Bowl halftime celebration without being forced to see things that would have been absolutely unthinkable in this country just fifty years ago. Unfortunately, most Americans have already had their consciences seared so badly that these things don’t even bother them anymore.
In the old days, popular music was certainly full of sexually suggestive themes, but the artists were never as graphic as they are today. In addition to blatantly flaunting their sexuality, the biggest pop stars of today also seem to be in a competition to see who can include the most occult symbology in their performances.
Just consider Beyonce’s performance at the Grammys. You certainly don’t have to be a “conspiracy theorist” to figure out that her performance was full of occult symbolism. Even the Washington Post is gushing about the “African, Hindu and Roman goddesses” that served as her inspiration…
I just don’t know why anyone would want to watch this stuff. It is truly astounding that millions of Americans would willingly sit there and watch an almost naked woman dressed like a pagan goddess prance around the stage in a sexually suggestive way.
Is this really “entertainment”?
Have we really fallen so low?
Sadly, people love this stuff.
I just went on YouTube and pulled up Lady Gaga’s very disturbing Super Bowl performance, and I discovered that it has already been viewed about 24 million times.
And that video received all of those views in just over a week.
Dressed like a demonic entity known as a “succubus”, Lady Gaga’s “performance” celebrated a wide range of perversion and evil, and yet hardly anyone spoke out against her afterwards.
That is because our society has fully embraced performers such as Beyonce and Lady Gaga. They are the “new normal”, while those that stand up for traditional values have become the enemy.
Hollywood has also become a complete cesspool of filth.

Herd mentality explained
Virtue signaling is an attempt to get into the good graces of an individual or group by taking a political stance that attempts to show moral superiority.
It allows someone to cheaply gain social status — and sometimes money — through comments or displays that are easy to make in place of genuine activism or work.
Such politically correct “holier than thou” empty gestures by ordinary individuals are silly but innocuous. By the powerful, though, this can have real impact on pushing agendas. More disheartening is when it happens by politically notable figures, for instance the “I’m not an extremist, unlike this guy a little to my right” routine. What’s quite troubling is how common it is for corporations, celebrities, and the ultra-wealthy to jump on the virtue signalling bandwagon. Many corporations have enthusiastically embraced affirmative action policies, put on gay pride events, ostentatiously celebrate diversity, and so forth — a clear endorsement of these things.

When I started to read about the White House leaking the first name that popped into my head was Priebus! What is Trump doing in putting known RINOs in the White House?
When Obama came to Israel he did not want to address the Knesset, the Parliament in Jerusalem as that would acknowledge Jewish sovereignty in Jerusalem. His minions hired a public venue and carefully screened every applicant for tickets to the venue.
Trump can thus do the same. Speak directly to the people without the interference of Labor anti-semites and nasty hecklers who hate his guts for predicting Brexit
“Infowars has established that Priebus is the Chief Leaker in the White House, responsible for feeding the Trump-hating mainstream media that daily dominate the White House news room with “red meat,”…”
So they have established that have they? Care to share the evidence, or it another nameless “source” with an axe to grind?
Actually, it fits the current Narrative as put out by the MSM this morning: “Trump declares war on whistleblowers”, casting Priebus et al. as “whistleblowers”, as opposed to “leakers”.
Occam’s Razor would say the InfoWars story stands a good chance of being true.
“Trump praises Priebus in News conference”. The way you drive a wedge between two allies is to invent a conflict between them or slyly accuse one of them of treachery. My take; Trump is not buying the story.
It’s early yet. One thing is certain: someone in the Trump camp is strategically leaking in order to sabotage his administration. That person (or persons) is almost certainly part of the team of establishment Republicans (i.e. RINOs) brought in as Congressional liaison, to make it easier for the new President to pull the levers of the party machine. Someone among the RINOs on the team has traduced him; that’s obvious.
#NeverTrump is still operational; it hasn’t given up.
So they’re burning Paris down because of a rumor. Imagine if Europeans got a fraction of this angry whenever migrants rape children, the migrant crisis would have been over before it really got going.
In truth Europeans ARE this angry and it is building.
Europeans are just more disciplined, that’s all.
The problem being of course that the pressure, when it is eventually released, is going to be that much greater.
With correspondingly greater damage (read, “biblical”).
The real traitors will not get away with what they have wrought. I do differentiate because in my view these rioters truly are only doing what’s written on their tin. They are forgiven (in that respect) and just have to go back to where they come from.
Our Lords and Masters however tell us “we’re here to help”. The likes of the BBC and CNN who are running noise for them to deflect attention have lost their monopoly of opinion formation.
They will not be forgotten either.
