Booster For Thee, But Not For Me

Six months ago the events reported in the following video were still tinfoil-hat stuff. Those of us who surmised that ultra-wealthy people were able to escape being vaxed by some sort of flim-flammery — empty syringes, saline injections, fake certificates, etc. — were considered the wildest of conspiracy theorists. But now, like so many other conspiracy theories, this one has become fact, at least in Spain. According to the news report below, the CEO of a major pharmaceutical company was one of the wealthy celebrities who purchased a fake “vaccine” certificate to avoid his booster shot.

Afghan Immigration: The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Many thanks to Hellequin GB for translating this article from the German-language service of the Epoch Times. The translator’s comments are in square brackets:

The federal government flies a good 200 Afghans to Germany every week

The federal government continues to fly persecuted Afghans and former local Afghan workers and their families to Germany. On average, around 200 Afghans per week are brought to Germany from Pakistan alone, write the newspapers of the Funke media group (Tuesday editions), citing the Federal Foreign Office. Accordingly, people continue to leave the country regularly via Iran.

According to the Federal Foreign Office, since the Taliban took power, German visa offices have been able to issue “more than 18,000 visas for local staff, particularly vulnerable people who have received a commitment from the federal government, and their family members.”

At the beginning of 2022 alone, around 5,000 people without passports were supported within two months when leaving Afghanistan by land and then on their onward journey to Germany. Since the Taliban took power in Afghanistan, there had been repeated sharp criticism of the German government’s evacuation measures.

According to media reports and information from the Funke newspapers, local Afghan forces, for example from the German armed forces, are still in the country on the Hindu Kush or in neighboring countries. The refugee aid organization Pro Asyl recently warned not to “forget” the local staff and their relatives in Afghanistan. [To me it looks as if each and every German soldier that toured in Afghanistan had an entire army battalion of personal staff. I seriously wonder: how could they cope without all these people when they were back home? Hmm…]

Afterword from the translator:

Get in here! The best rooms are ready, which will be really cozy in the near future: inflation, recession, stagnation, housing shortage, oil and gas bottlenecks, gas rationing, etc. What could possibly go WRONG? And for all of that the Germans can pat themselves on the back and pride themselves on being do-gooders. They can then chisel that into their tombstones — if they don’t end up in a mass-grave — and have a photo of themselves next to it for even more virtue-signalling from Hades.

Why don’t Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates or Bahrain take in their persecuted Muslim brothers/sisters? Quite simply, they don’t feel like having conflicts and are even less interested in financing the upkeep.

Reminder: Local Forces in Afghanistan — Hardly any cases of targeted persecution. Could that also apply to neighboring countries?

Two Gang Rapes a Day

It’s important to remember, as I’ve often pointed out in the past, that gang rape is not an ethnic European pastime. It was all but unknown before the cultural enrichment of Europe began. The number of gang rapes exploded in direct proportion to the number of immigrants from Africa and the Middle East.

Many thanks to Hellequin GB for translating this article from Junge Freiheit. The translator’s comments are in square brackets:

Massive increase since 2018

Almost two gang rapes every day in Germany

BERLIN. Almost every second suspect in a gang rape does not have German citizenship. This emerges from a response from the Federal Government to a small question from Member of the Bundestag Stephan Brandner (AfD), which is available to Junge Freiheit. For 2021, 677 gang rapes were recorded and suspects identified in 462 cases. In 2018 there were around 300 such crimes.

This is “imported crime and criminals,” said Brandner indignantly, “after all, the proportion of non-German suspects recorded is 47 percent, and that with a proportion of foreigners in Germany of around 13 percent.” Only German citizenship is recorded in the statistics. The ethnic background or any other possible foreign citizenship of the suspects is not taken into account. [I wonder why?]

Surge in gang rape since 2015

Brandner, who is also a legal advisor to the AfD parliamentary group, estimates that more than half of the perpetrators of gang rapes are foreign. “Federal Minister of the Interior [Nancy] Faeser should finally address this issue and fight resolutely to ensure that such conditions no longer exist in Germany.”

The number of gang rapes in Germany has skyrocketed since 2015, as has the proportion of foreign offenders. This was the result of a request from the AfD parliamentary group at the end of 2019. Gang rapes are often not so-called relational acts in which the perpetrator and the victim knew each other. This partly explains why the detection rate is relatively low.

Afterword from the translator:

There was a similar report for the year 2020. According to the BKA, 704 gang rape proceedings were counted. The year 2018 was also used for comparison — 659 gang rapes.

I’m pretty sure that when the “German citizenship” is distributed more quickly, then the number of foreign suspects will definitely decrease more rapidly.

Lest We Forget

As most of you know, I joined the Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV) a while back. Given the current cultural climate here in the Nation Formerly Known as the United States of America, it’s about the most politically incorrect organization I could belong to. I suppose the Klan would be worse, but to the progressive mainstream it’s undoubtedly “Klan, Sons of Confederate Veterans — same thing.”

Many years ago I wrote a poem entitled “Mason Dixon” that began with these lines:

The central obsession of our federal estate
is the bloody conflict that divided it.
Thirteen decades later its veterans’ reunions
and widows’ pensions are no more,
but the dead still rest uneasy
in their ordered rows.

The sleep of the Civil War dead is even more disturbed these days. If the woke brigades get their way, every last Confederate soldier will be dug up from his final resting place and — What? Burned? Thrown in the swamp? Shipped to Devil’s Island?

We who are descended from Confederate veterans are expected to repudiate our ancestors. The new politically correct regime is determined to wipe their collective memory from our culture and replace it with a Snidely Whiplash version which is all about slavery and the cruel, evil slave-owners who were righteously vanquished by the virtuous Union armies.

Slavery was an abomination, but the war was about a lot more than just slavery. Here in Virginia it was about being invaded — in 1861 the Union army came down the Shenandoah Valley west of the Blue Ridge, torching farms and crops, and taking prominent citizens hostage to be held against the good behavior of the rest of the community.

There were hardly any slaves in the Shenandoah Valley. Do you really think that slavery was the most important issue on the minds of the citizens of Winchester and Front Royal and Port Republic when their young men took up arms, joined the militia, and left their homes to muster under the command of General Robert E. Lee?

We were invaded.

When I talk to my liberal friends, I sometimes mention that I’ve joined the SCV, just to see what their reaction will be. When they express consternation (as is usually the case), I point out that Virginia was invaded by a foreign aggressor in much the same way that Ukraine was invaded last February. Shouldn’t we celebrate the heroic (albeit futile) resistance of the Virginians against that aggression, just as we celebrate the heroic Ukrainians?

That’s a difficult one for the liberal mind to grapple with. It seems that sometimes invasion is a good thing — it all depends on who is invading whom.

Before 1865 Virginia was a sovereign commonwealth, part of an aggregation known as the United States, the membership in which was considered a voluntary association. But the enemy won the war, and that changed everything. Our sovereignty was destroyed, and states’ rights became increasingly a fiction. Our liberties were steadily eroded, reaching a culmination in the totalitarian dystopia under which our spirits groan today.

Before then the phrase “United States” was treated as a plural noun, but it has been understood as a singular one ever since the ink dried on the surrender in Appomattox on April 9, 1865.

This morning I attended the Memorial Day observance at the Confederate Cemetery in Farmville. It was organized by the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC) in collaboration with the SCV. Several chapters of the UDC were in attendance at the ceremonies, as were several camps of the SCV.

The event was unabashedly Christian. It opened and closed with a prayer, and the various speakers made repeated references to God and Jesus Christ in their remarks about the events we were commemorating.

We pledged allegiance to the U.S. Flag, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the Confederate battle flag. Yes, I know those pledges seem contradictory. But we lost the war, and as honorable men, we must acknowledge our suzerainty under the superior power of a victorious adversary.

Wir Schaffen Das! This Time With Ukrainians!

Many thanks to Hellequin GB for translating this article from JournalistenWatch:

Even before the entitlement to basic security: the number of registered refugees from Ukraine has already risen to over 352,000

Berlin — Just a few days before the basic security entitlement for Ukrainian refugees came into force, 352,545 Ukrainian nationals and 12,371 third-country nationals were already registered in Germany with biometric data. This was explained by the Federal Ministry of the Interior at the request of Bild am Sonntag. However, the actual number of refugees is estimated to be much higher, since initially every Ukrainian with a passport could enter the country without a visa, and there was no obligation to register.

According to the Federal Employment Agency, as of Friday, 44,000 Ukrainians have registered with Job Centers as looking for work.

So, that’s just over ten percent of the refugees. Everything as usual: Most need German taxpayers’ money, the Federal Government has no control over who is in this Country, and it invites all the poor people in the world to Germany, where it promises them a basic security that is higher than what many pensioners receive here who have worked for 45 years.

That’s not only unfair, it’s perverse, because it attracts more and more people who — without doing anything to earn it — provide themselves with a “luxury life” that is carefree by their standards.

Something is fundamentally wrong here. Unfortunately, on purpose.

Afterword from the translator:

I think the German Government needs to strike retirement for native Germans completely off their “basic human rights” list and make them pay at a minimum 60% income tax and give them NO unemployment benefits if they should lose their jobs for any reason, so that they will work harder out of fear of being unemployed.

I’m pretty sure that most Germans would grumble a little bit in the privacy of their privy, but would nonetheless get up every morning, go to work and kill themselves slowly so that no whiff of racism or Nazism could be attached to them. “Let them rest in their graves” is the motto.

The Further Adventures of Rasmus Paludan

Rasmus Paludan, the leader of the Stram Kurs (Hard Line) party in both Denmark and Sweden, caused a big uproar last month by traveling to Sweden and burning Korans — or trying to; on a number of occasions the culture-enriching violence ahead of his scheduled appearances became so intense that he was unable to stage his events (see the archives for reports on various incidents).

The two articles below from Nyheter Idag provide a follow-up to those earlier posts. Many thanks to Gary Fouse for the translations.

The first article reports on a court decision concerning the detention of Mr. Paludan by the police during the events of Easter Week. I hadn’t realized that he had been detained — that wasn’t widely reported at the time outside of Sweden, as far as I know:

Court: Police who arrested Paludan erred

Linköping — On Maundy Thursday (April 14), the Danish-Swedish politician Rasmus Paludan was detained by police in Linköping. This occurred after a violent riot broke out in the neighborhood of Skäggetorp. Now the administrative court in Linköping has ruled on the police actions and maintains that the arrest of Paludan was wrong. This is reported by Dagens Nyheter, among others.

The riot in Skäggetorp took place after Rasmus Paludan was granted permission to hold a demonstration in the neighborhood, where he planned, among other things, to burn a Koran.

However, Paludan never had time to hold the public gathering before the chaotic scenes broke out where, among other things, rocks were thrown at police, who later withdrew from the scene. Instead, he found himself in a car in a parking lot two kilometers away in the company of police officers who thought that he should not go to Skäggetorp.

The arrest was made at 4:52pm on the grounds that Paludan had caused the riot. The decision came from a commander and caused surprise within the police.

“It was a very far-fetched interpretation of the law. Paludan wasn’t even at the scene. He should file a police report on this,” a policeman told DN [Dagens Nyheter].

Paludan was held at the police station for just over an hour and a half, and because of this, he canceled the planned and authorized gathering in Navestad in Norrköping. But riots also broke out there, even though Paludan wasn’t at the scene.

Offered no resistance

According to the written police report, Paludan offered no resistance at the time of his arrest. Instead, afterwards he appealed the police decision at the administrative court in Linköping, which has now announced that the police action was wrong.

According to the administrative court, police may not detain people in order to control the behavior of others. In addition, it was stated that Paludan wasn’t even in the vicinity of Skäggetorp when the riot broke out.

Accordingly, the police actions are rejected.

“Even if a violent riot can be connected to a public gathering, a temporary custody presupposes that it is an individual’s behavior or actions that lead to disruption or a direct danger to public order,” the court writes, according to TT [Sweden’s national news bureau].

Police authorities have chosen not to comment about the court.

The second article reports on the first conviction of a culture-enricher for violent acts during the riots in Rinkeby after Rasmus Paludan burned a Koran there on Good Friday (see reports on the riots in Rinkeby in the comments section of this post):

Nice Work if You Can Get It

Thousands of Somalis have left their homes and migrated to Sweden in search of a better life there, and, boy, have they found it!

Many thanks to LN for translating this article from Fria Tider:

“Sweden is good” — Hassan hasn’t worked a day after 11 years in the country

May 27, 2022

A father of nine, Hassan Dhgey Himiye of Filipstad managed to make it from Somalia to Sweden eleven years ago. A real jackpot, it would turn out, as eleven years later he still has not made a move in the new country, reports SVT.

Facts: Somalis

Somalis are a vulnerable group:

  • At the end of 2019, 111,014 Somalis were living in Sweden (SCB).
  • Each Somali who receives a residence permit costs taxpayers SEK 10 million (ABC).
  • Among Somalis who have lived in Sweden for up to four years, the median income from work is 100 SEK/month and the rest is benefits (RUT).
  • Nine out of ten Somali immigrants are illiterate (Yle).
  • One in five young Somali men in Gothenburg are involved in at least one violent crime in a two-year period (GP)
  • 82% of Somalis in Sweden are unemployed (SR)
  • The average IQ in Somalia is about 68. This means that the probability that a random Swede has a higher IQ than a random Somali is 94 percent (Lynn 2002).
  • Somalis are significantly more satisfied with life in Sweden than ethnic Swedes are. Somali illiterates are the most satisfied with Sweden (SvD).

Hassan himself is of the opinion that Sweden is a really great country.

“Sweden is good,” he says to SVT [Swedish state television] and emphasizes:

“It is very good in Sweden.”

The statement is in line with previous figures showing that Somalis are considerably more satisfied with life in Sweden than ethnic Swedes are. Somali illiterates are the most satisfied with Sweden, according to SvD, which describes the group as “the most proud Swedes” there are.

However, according to YLE, as many as nine out of ten Somali immigrants are illiterate.

“Those who feel most at home and proud are the Somalis,” said Bi Puranen, secretary general of the World Values Survey, when the survey was presented.

In the case of Hassan in Filipstad, SVT has made a so-called sob story in which they try to make it look like he has hardly done anything but look for a job for the past eleven years, but still can’t find a job.

The Cartelization of Europe

According to Europol, the EU is destined to become more and more like Mexico, with rampant corruption, lawlessness, and violence.

Many thanks to Hellequin GB for translating this article from the German-language service of the Epoch Times. The translator’s comments are in square brackets:

Europol predicts street violence like in Latin America

The highest European police authority Europol warns of an extreme increase in violence on European streets. Europol director Catherine De Bolle speaks to the Welt am Sonntag of a “level of violence on the European streets that we have never seen before. So far we only knew that from Latin America.”

De Bolle described the decryption of the EnchroChat chat application used by Criminals as a major blow to organized crime. This has given us a whole new understanding of how organized crime threatens European security, the rule of law and democracy. [I wonder who’s responsible for that?]

De Bolle said: “Our conclusion is: We underestimated the danger. “Drug trafficking continues to play a major role for criminals. Cartels have recognized that it is worthwhile to produce certain drugs in Europe. “For example, we discovered synthetic drugs from the Netherlands on the Brazilian market, which surprised us a lot,” said De Bolle.

Violence, Drugs and Corruption

Of the around 2,000 tons of cocaine produced annually in the Andes region, 60 percent is now destined for the European market. In the past, most of the production was intended for the US market.

In addition to the violence and drugs, the extent of corruption was also underestimated. More than half of the criminal organizations use corruption, for example to persuade dock workers to cooperate in drug smuggling. There are also very specific threats. “Criminals take photos of the target’s wives and children to pressure him into cooperation.” [….and our respective governments are using what methods to threaten us with? I cannot see the difference.]

80 percent of criminal organizations would set up legal businesses [Big Pharma] in addition to illegal businesses in order to launder their money. “Illegal business is infiltrating our economy and destabilizing the system,” De Bolle warned. [I guess they don’t like competition.]

Afterword from the translator:

It was only a matter of time before conditions like those in Latin America would prevail in Europe, with a number of cities in Sweden already being shaken by street violence. In Germany, stabbings and shootings are on the rise, well on their way to Swedish conditions.

Just a look at Mexico reveals what “rosy” times could lie ahead for people in Europe: There is now hardly an area in the second largest country in Latin America where the illegal Mafia does not rule. One could also say that organized crime is engulfing the whole country like an octopus, also made possible because the state is on the one hand incapable or unwilling and on the other hand often enough makes common cause with the cartels.

Of course, our great Politicians did not underestimate the danger, but knew exactly what they were doing. It’s all planned like that, so that Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates and George Soros can ride in with their NWO cavalry and save the peons from the bad guys.

Steven McCraw, the Director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, acknowledged that the local police commander in Uvalde made a mistake when he failed to order his officers into the school where Salvador Ramos was slaughtering children. The police thought that it was a “barricaded hostages” incident, rather than an “active shooter” incident. The man who took out the shooter was an off-duty border guard whose daughter attended the school. He learned about what was happening when his wife phoned him while he was getting a haircut. He borrowed a shotgun from the barber, went to the school, and shot Mr. Ramos dead.

In other news, based on documents released by Pfizer, of the outcomes that could be documented, 82% to 97% of vaccinated pregnant women lost their babies after they were jabbed.
