Too bad. It had such “nice” ideals.

WHEN in the course of human Events, it becomes necessary….
Welcome to the New American Digest: 2001-2022
After scanning its face again and again,
I began to scale it, picking my holds
With intense caution. About half-way
To the top, I was suddenly brought to
A dead stop, with arms outspread
Clinging close to the face of the rock
Unable to move hand or foot
Either up or down. My doom
Appeared fixed. I MUST fall.
There would be a moment of
Bewilderment, and then,
A lifeless rumble down the cliff
To the glacier below.
My mind seemed to fill with a
Stifling smoke. This terrible eclipse
Lasted only a moment, when life blazed
Forth again with preternatural clearness.
I seemed suddenly to become possessed
Of a new sense. My trembling muscles
Became firm again, every rift and flaw in
The rock was seen as through a microscope,
My limbs moved with a positiveness and precision
With which I seemed to have
Nothing at all to do.
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
in the universe.

There is going to be terrible bloodshed.
There is already terrible bloodshed. No one cares to notice. The historians will write with astonishment how an army of savages invaded and overthrew an entire continent without tanks, planes, cavalry or guns…and were welcomed by the barren host to nest and destroy them. Willingly. This video made me weep.. And that is about all I can do. I fear that in America there may be a wall built…but with lots of holes.
Not Mongols, this time, but Africans and Middle Easterners?
Socialism is a bullshit outfit, isn’t it?
Pat Condell: “Europe is killing itself“
Madame,
Even worse, will there be historians? Will there be a language for them to employ, beyond grunts and shrieks? For how long will there be art of any kind before it’s outlawed to appease the offended?
If history (or art) is produced, who will experience it? Will there be enough people beyond the final few who can produce it, to act as auditors? This isn’t a continent being destroyed, it’s a civilization.
Alas.
This breaks my heart. I am so fortunate to have experienced Europe while it was still civilized.
I wish my children and grandchildren could see and experience the places I’ve been. The art, the architecture, the wonderful differences of cultures that will soon be gone.
The lights are going out in Europe.
We may experience the same thing, in our Godless and ‘diverse’ America. I pray not, but our chances are poor.
I thought about that very question as I was writing my comment. The historians won’t be coming from the smoldering ruins. It will come from the onlookers who shake their heads in dismay.
If Europeans (in Europe and America) recovered the will to do it, all this could be reversed in a few years. However, Europeans are soft, weak and bemused by their tech. I suspect we will all go quietly.
Speak for yourself. I don’t go cheap.
When the SHTF, it will be as when India was partitioned and Hindu and Muslim took murderous revenge for 100’s of years of hate, insults and injuries.
This time the deadly mix will also include Agnostic, Atheist, Buddhist, Christian, Jew, … Wiccan.
It will happen during either a brutally cold or brutally hot time of year, when tempers are shortest.

We all know that Pedophilia is the next depravity to be “normalized”, right?

As the Z-man points out.
Whenever the “Never Trump” clown car pulls up, everyone who spills out is wearing a yarmulke.
It will be the young men who carry the ball, if it is carried, not us old guys. I live in Flyover Country and most of the young European guys I see are broken in some way. I don’t use the term “American” because it now has no meaning.
Thank you for this, Gerard. I made it 1:50 in. By then the point was so well made there were tears in my eyes.
Once there was a beautiful exciting world, then we stopped giving lobotomys to the insane and instead turned them loose on the world in the name of fairness,
So sad. ‘Camp of the Saints’ in slow motion.
The last Reconquista took 770 years. I wonder how long this will take.
I agree with you Vanderleun, I won’t go cheap either but I prefer to go on my own terms and not upon the terms of these wildly psychotic and diseased muslim negros.
There really is only one way to handle problems like these and white people all over the world know exactly what is required but it seems that Mr. Hitler left a bad taste in people’s mouths, so much so that nations have lost their desire to protect themselves for fear of being labeled as Nazi, racist or bigoted.
(It makes me wonder, how did Joe Stalin, a murderous Communist who far exceeded the murders and brutality of his Nazi protagonist, not wind up with a reputation as bad as Adolph’s but it seems as if he did not because so many people seem to desire Communism and they seldom refer to actions by Marxists with the disgust they feel for Nazis. When the labels of Nazi, racist or bigot are tossed out, no one ever says Marxist….Strange)
Anyway, call it what you want but this problem will destroy the world and killing these people and removing every vestige of their existence is the only solution to it.
I see this video, and many more each day all portraying individuals behaving in an altogether uncivilized manner. All the individuals in all the videos have one thing in common. It has caused me to developed a sort of tourettes symptom, involuntarily repeating the same single word with each video.

Shame on you Bill Jones. Antisemitism is the oldest, tawdriest, cheapest trick in the book.
Ideas Have Consequences: Stephen Hicks wrote a deep analysis with that title.
Every leader has proven the truth in those three words, as has every parent and teacher.
The Islamic religion/ideology is most attractive to those who’ve been coached in its corruption from childhood.
1. You carry out god’s will by plundering the wealth, women, and children of non-Muslims. Aggression in this manner is praiseworthy. Dying in this effort one becomes a martyr earning a place in Paradise. What’s not to like?
2. In Paradise, the martyr is gifted with perpetual sensual pleasures. What’s not to like?
3. The non-jihadist, non-martyr, lives under the threat of perpetual torture even after death. The corpse feels the pain forever. What’s not to fear? Therefore to acquiesce to martyrdom makes sense?
Do we wonder that the brain-washed Muslim child becomes the murderous adult?
We will never destroy the ideology of Islam. We will never quarantine it, in this age of easy communication. With constant immense effort and luck we will weaken it as we do to dangerous viruses in preparing vaccines. If humane education of Muslim children does not take place (in some parts of the Islamic world it is promoted! Why not publicly ally ourselves with them?).
There is little hope for our survival, unless we at least match the passion and persistence and competence of our enemies. And beware of the occasional monstrous mutant which must be detected and eradicated early on.
The Islamist teachers in mosque, madrassa, and home have taught their children hell well.
What better ideas have we to overcome the three points above?
The whole Islam system is supported by one belief. Erode, vitiate, destroy that one belief and the whole shitbang of murderous madness collapses.
That is, demonstrate that Mohammed was at best a murderous charlatan or a simple psychopath, and not the Perfect Man or Example to be emulated, and all significance attributed to the Koran and its derivative “sacred” texts disappears as Mohammed is seen to be a Pied Piper of Senseless Doom
Categorize, for example, his behavior according to DSM standards, contrast his early behavior in Mecca with that in Medina — in Medina as clever self-serving power plays and immense criminality.
The latter requiring the tone of the developing Koran to change from the relatively benign to the immutable malign.
Truth will out. It outed Tojo, Hitler, Stalin, Mao.
The truth will need to be known by men and women with chests who act on those truths — particularly in caged Islamic countries of the M.E., Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Who knows, maybe YouTube will serve as an opening wedge to life outside the cage.
This devolution of Islam is already underway by civilian scholars from the West and Middle East who continue historical and linguistic studies of the origins of Islam and its borrowings/distortions from other cultures in composition of the Koran.
Essential to success of this positive destruction will be success in the acceptance by ex-Muslims of a humane system for making life meaningful, worthwhile, significant. Perhaps, apostates from Islam will show the way by demonstrating the decent values of Christianity, Buddhism, or other spiritual approaches.
My people went to war in 1914. After 1916, they decided to destroy themselves: meat-grinding battles, revolutionary politics, socialist economics, fascism, communism, nazism, mass murder, genoicde, war, war, war, and more war; bureacracy; show trials; my fingers grow tired. Europe hasn’t had a good idea in century. And none can answer: why?
Asking, pleading, demanding the insanity stop has had no effect. Setting a good example paints a target. Even defeating nazism, fascism, and communism had no effect. Western civilization is adamant on its suicide.
The lamps went out in 1914, never to be re-lit.
The only open debate is: what will come next?
