Viktor Orbán: Multiculti Has Utterly Failed

Below is a summary of a speech given earlier today by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Many thanks to CrossWare for translating this piece from the Fidesz party website:

Multiculti has utterly failed

“Multiculturalism has utterly failed, and they want the price to be paid by all member states of the European Union, including Hungary,” stated the Prime Minister on the Fidesz faction Summit, the closing event of the “Stand for Hungary” campaign on Tuesday in Budapest.

The Prime Minister, referring to Mihály Varga’s [Minister of Finance] speech, stated: “A different answer can hardly be given” whether our economy is successful or not. Nobody could deny the improvement of our macroeconomic numbers, but the criticism just does not want to die down, he said; I believe the situation is that ”we are not successful in the way they would want it”. The global elite wants Hungary to be successful, but they want to be in the first place, with only second place for the Hungarians, he explained, and he added: but the government is opposed to that; it wants the first place the Hungarians to enjoy the fruits of economic successes and only second place for the global elite.

Viktor Orbán emphasized: as long as we have unemployed Hungarians, we should not give jobs to anybody else. He explained that he does not share the reasoning that believes letting guest workers into the country would help the economy. This has a cultural and spiritual side too, he explained: there is a difference between when a community — which owns the country — takes care of all the jobs, including the most difficult and the least respected ones, or whether a country looks down on some types of jobs and “passes” them over to others. “If we want Hungary to be a strong nation, first we must give work to everyone and we have to respect all types of jobs,” — explained the Prime Minister, praising the increase in the minimal wage.

At the event, which closed the political season, he also discussed: Two massive historical questions are pushing Europe today. The first is the problem of illegal immigration, which we validly call the modern-day mass migration. The second is what kind of future we are going to have: Brussels’ Europe, or the Nations of Europe, said Viktor Orbán. He added: The stakes are serious, so there are tremendous forces behind each of these issues.

“We are in the middle of two such arguments, which could determine the fate of Europe for decades and permanently,” he stated. He also drew attention to the fact that all over Europe, with the exception of a few countries, unemployment is very high, especially among young people, while only small portions of the migrants have started to work. Crowning the crazy ideas, with some referring to solidarity, they want to distribute the immigrants with mandatory quotas or with the creation of migrant villages to place migrants to every single member state of the EU. Furthermore, they expect cooperation from those countries, whose opinions they did not even ask when they decided to invite masses of migrants into Europe, noted Viktor Orbán.

The Prime Minister insisted: we do not want to participate in the German experiment in the falsification of history, which tries to blame Hungary for letting the migrants into Europe, instead of Germany. Multiculti has utterly failed, and they want its price to be paid by all European Union member states, including Hungary, said the Prime Minister. The migrants were unwisely let into Western countries; now they want to distribute them into countries who defended themselves and did not let them into their territory, for example Hungary, added Viktor Orbán.

An Interview With Wild Bill About His Arrest in Calgary

As we reported last night, the American vlogger Wild Bill Finlay was arrested last Saturday when he arrived at the airport in Calgary. His crime was to “smuggle” “hate speech” into Canada on his iPad. The “hate” in question was contained in the notes for a speech he was scheduled to give at a rally in downtown Calgary. Notes that no one except for himself would ever read.

Yesterday evening Vlad Tepes interviewed Wild Bill about his encounter with Soviet Canada, his plans for legal action against the Canadian government, and the sorry state of free speech in Modern Multicultural Canada:

A married couple in New Jersey were rudely awakened when the ceiling fan over their bed exploded, burst into flame, and dropped on top of them. Both were taken to the hospital. They had recently installed the ceiling fan, and there was an old gas line running above the fan that is thought to have remained live and was probably ignited by a spark from the fan motor.

In other news, Canadian Prime Minister Justin “Baby Doc” Trudeau wore Ramadan-themed socks to yesterday’s LGBT “pride” parade in Toronto.

Wild Bill Busted in Calgary for Thoughtcrime, Then Booted Out of Canada

Wild Bill is a well-known vlogger (YouTube channel: Wild Bill for America) who lives in Florida. Among other characteristics, he is what is nowadays called an “Islamophobe”, which means he is persona non grata on both sides of our northern border. However, only Canada has recent legislative backing — Motion M-103, opposing blasphemy against Islam — to provide grounds for arresting people like Wild Bill and bunging them into chokey. We haven’t fallen that far in the USA. Not yet.

The background for Wild Bill’s story:

Last Saturday a “hateful” group called the Worldwide Coalition Against Islam (WCAI, see their Facebook page) held a rally in downtown Calgary in front of city hall. Wild Bill was one of the invited guest speakers.

Here’s a PC view of the “hateful” rally, excerpted from a CBC report:

Anti-Islam Rally in Calgary Meets With Counter-Protest But Remains Peaceful

Worldwide Coalition Against Islam members march to city hall, met by members of Calgary Anti-Fascist Action

The event billed on social media as a “Patriotic Unity Mega Festival” in front of Calgary’s city hall on Sunday was met by an opposing group rallying against what they saw as a message of intolerance.

Gathered on one side of the municipal plaza were members of the Worldwide Coalition Against Islam (WCAI), which was denied a special event permit for the rally by the city.

Officials said in a written response to the group the decision was “on the basis that your organization, and messages it espouses, are hateful.”

Across the plaza were members of Calgary Anti-Fascist Action (AFA), who say they wanted to show unity against what they called messages of intolerance and hate.

Standing between the two groups were Calgary police officers, ensuring things remained peaceful.

Insults, slurs and chants were hurled back and forth. However, no arrests were made.

Among the few dozen people watching the two sides rally was Lifetime Adventure Travel guide Judi Sommerville, who was leading a two-hour tour of the downtown.

“It’s totally embarrassing,” she said. “And it does not represent our city in the least. This is where we start the tour and talk about city hall and some artifacts, and it’s not a very good way to begin a tour of our beautiful, interesting city.”

When Wild Blue flew into Calgary, he was arrested at the airport by the Canadian authorities, and his iPad was confiscated. The evidence for his “crime” was the “hate speech” contained in his iPad — the notes for the speech he intended to give at the rally. He was detained for more than seven hours, and then allowed to leave the country. But the police kept his iPad, saying that they needed to send it to Ottawa for forensic analysis, and to determine how much tax he owed for bringing “contraband” — that is, his words — into the country.

Read more details on the incident at Adrienne’s Corner.

As Wild Bill points out in his video about what happened, the words on his computer would never be seen by anyone but him. How could they possibly be “hate speech”? If he had spoken them at the rally, then they might have violated the Soviet-style speech restrictions that now prevail in Canada. But to classify them as illegal while they were just sitting in digital storage on his personal computing device is simply absurd.

As a matter of fact, given the circumstances, Wild Bill’s words on his iPad were more serious than hate speech: They were thoughtcrimes. If he had spoken them at the rally, that would have been crimethink. So the police were doing their duty by preventing his crimethink in advance.

In the following video, Wild Bill tells the story of what happened last Saturday:

And here’s an earlier speech by him that is more or less the same as the speech he would have given in Calgary:

Reflection on Al Minya’s Bus Attack: How Massacre Leads to Sharia Law

Below is a report from Ashraf Ramelah about last month’s attack by Islamic terrorists on a bus carrying Coptic Christians near Minya, in Upper Egypt, which killed more than thirty people, including children.

Reflection on Al Minya’s bus attack: How massacre leads to Sharia law

by Ashraf Ramelah

The narrow, unpaved road snaking through the desert of Upper Egypt does one thing. It connects visitors from Al Minya, the capital city of the Al Minya governorate, to Bishop Samuel Monastery, a Coptic Orthodox institution. The road with no name was carved out for this purpose in the 12th century. Today, as in ancient days, only Christians have a use for this road. Not a soul dares this trip when the Winds of Kamasin whip up the sands from across the great desert in May and June. The air is unbreathable and the road disappears.

Traveling the 25-kilometer stretch means a one-hour bus ride with no spurs to turn off. One step from the road’s edge could sink a man to his knees. The absence of Bedouins bears out the vast emptiness. Unlike the Sinai, nomads are rarely seen in the Western desert. To be on this lonesome road is to be alone with the Creator. Only the very committed have an interest — man, woman and child. The journey by bus is made once a week.

Needless to say, not a single person living at either end of this road owns the all-terrain vehicle needed to cross the sand. But masked gunmen used three such vehicles and then lay in wait to ambush the early morning pilgrimage on May 26. As suddenly as the men materialized, they vanished into the desert an hour or so before a lone car pulled up to the scene. The driver found the dead and injured. A passenger saturated in the blood of her son offered her painful story to him:

…on our way the bus suddenly stopped. Their masks revealed they were terrorists coming onto the bus. They started hitting us with random bullets. My daughter was scared. She started to say the “Our Father” [praying] in a loud voice for fear of them. Terrorists pointed their firearms toward her. Bishoy stood up and confronted them, saying, ‘Shame on you. She is a little child.’ They replied, ‘If you say the Shahada, we will leave her alone.’ He refused. They began to shoot towards him. He threw his body over me and my daughter [his sister] until he took the shots instead of us. His aunt also was saved by his body. I held him, and I couldn’t believe he died. I noticed my clothes were soaked with his blood.

In spite of explicit threats from ISIS toward Egypt’s Coptic Christians after the recent terror attacks (45 days earlier) on the Cairo, Tanta, and Alexandria churches, many devout Coptic families in Al Minya gathered in the early morning hours of May 26 for a planned trip to Bishop Samuel Monastery. Copts have never allowed terror to shut down the practice of their faith. Fourteen hours later many arrived at the monastery in wooden coffins — Orthodox protocol bypasses hospital mortuaries in cases of terrorism.

At gunpoint, the passengers were given a choice; say the “Shahada” (conversion to Islam) or die. The bus was sprayed with bullets — killing 34 and injuring 20. In deference to 7th-century Medina and the Prophet’s first use of conversion by sword, looting began. The holy followers of the “religion of peace” grabbed Egyptian pounds, cell phones, and gold jewelry worn by the passengers — mindful that gold crosses, however anathema, convert to dinars.

Viktor Orbán Discusses Mass Immigration and Emmanuel Macron at the EU Summit

Yesterday and today the European Council hosted a summit meeting in Brussels of the 28 leaders of the European Union. The meeting was characterized by Emmanuel Macron’s outburst against Central European countries over their refusal to accept any “refugees” that have been invited en masse into the EU by German Chancellor Angela Merkel and the apparatchiks in Brussels (see this ANSAMed report on the summit from an Italian perspective).

The video below combines three excerpts from remarks by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán both before and after the summit. The first two clips are from yesterday, before the summit, and the third one was from earlier today, after the summit had concluded.

Note: When Mr. Orbán uses the pronoun “he” in the second clip, he is referring to Emmanuel “Toy Boy” Macron, the new president of France. Mr. Macron distinguished himself at his first EU summit by insisting that the Visegrad Four — Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, and Hungary — must be forced to accept their quota of “refugees” as laid down by the European Union.
