You can be angry at the **syrians** all day long, and yet it’s the EU that’s farking you so badly.

Meanwhile, Socialism keeps rolling along. I saw a good cartoon the other day. It showed the edifice marked “Socialism,” and 2 doors presented with signs above them. The one said; “work hard and give up half,” and the other one said: “free stuff.” One of those entrances was queued up with people, and the other one totally empty.

Endless input of inbred violent males. What could happen?

This is terrifying. And yet, civilized Western society is expected to take on these criminals. I am Canadian; thus I have the weak little Justin Trudeau inviting these savages into our country. Would only that we could have a Donald Trump as our leader; it would not go so well for them.

And that is what an invasion looks like. In a sane society, the trucker could run them over and be a hero.

The “migrants” all looked well fed and well clothed. All looked like they had good hiking shoes on. Housing a bunch of military aged muslim men in one place with nothing to do….nothing good will come of that.

Welcome to the New American Digest: 2003-2020

Only by Fire is Fascism Finished

Year upon year in Earth’s darker forests,
Heaped at the foot of the trees,
Dry drifts of wood rot and leaf fall increase
Which sunlight shall never seize.

The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by bell, book, and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.

The ash that descends in the September skies
Where the leapers swam down the stones?
Best answered by bombs from mid-heaven at prayer
With that fire which hollows the bones.

The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by bell, book, and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.

If their god decrees war, God’s war shall prevail.
His lessons are seared in His stone.
No dreams shall defer, nor wishes erase,
The answers that burn in the bone.

The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by bell, book, and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.

Only by Fire is Fascism Finished.
This Sin is demanded that Your Line may Live.
Only through Fire is Freedom Reborn.
Each generation pulls the Sword from the Stone.

Van der Leun: The Normblog Bio of Your Host“From a student radical/hippie/leftist of the Free Speech Movement/Vietnam Day Commitee era and a full-on Democratic Liberal in the decades after, I think I’ve evolved a politics that is neither right nor left but is, in its elemental nature, draconian. In the last 20 years, I’ve taken apart my beliefs with a sledgehammer. Now I’ve got to put the surviving parts back together with tweezers and other ‘shabby equipment, always deteriorating’.”
