We can’t say we weren’t warned. Around the time of the First World War, when Europe ruled nearly every part of the Earth, Theodore Lothrop Stoddard wrote a series of highly regarded books and articles about the global racial situation that argued European global rule was coming unglued.

We can make great strides towards helping future generations with no Draconian measures whatsoever, just a combination of incentives and disincentives. (more…)

In early 2013 a brief flurry of international news stories, none very in-depth and virtually all dated between January and March, revealed that Jews were administering Depo-Provera, a long-lasting injectable contraceptive given as a shot in the arm or buttocks every three months, to Ethiopian women in Israel without their informed consent.
