The Young Republicans Chats
Earlier this year, I met some Young Republicans, and they made me feel like a Boomer cuckservative. It was a dramatic illustration of just how much progress our ideas have made in penetrating the political mainstream. David Zsutty calls it the “racist group chat to White House policy pipeline,” and it isn’t just a metaphor. (more…)

The Murder of Iryna Zarutska
On Tuesday, September 9th, full video of the murder of Iryna Zarutska was released. We watched in horror as she cringed, terrified of the hulking black orc who loomed over her and stabbed her. We watched in horror as she cried and bled to death. It was awful, but I was already prepared for it.
What I was not prepared for was the bovine indifference of four other blacks sitting near her, who did nothing. Almost two minutes passed before anyone made any gesture of help. By then, it was too late. (more…)

Onesime Jalbert of Quebec and his wife Celestine had 17 children. In their defense, the television had not been invented yet. Of the 17 Jalbert children, 16 of them lived and died leaving nary a mark on the world. Ah, but the 17th child, now he had a destiny! For while his beginnings were humble, he was blessed by the Almighty with a gift that would change the world.
Domina Jalbert was born in a Quebecois slum in 1904. As a youth, Jalbert became fascinated with aerodynamics. He got his pilots license in 1927 and began a career designing lighter-than-aircraft. (more…)

The Israeli solution to the perennial Palestinian problem has emerged: The only way to be rid of them once and for all is to purge them from Gaza altogether. It has been difficult to achieve this aim, however, as fighting in the war-torn region is ongoing. (more…)

Part 2 of 2 (Part 1 here)
October 7, 2023 was like both September 11, 2001 and January 6, 2021 for American conservatives. Hamas’ attack on Israeli settlements and troops unleashed an immediate fury from the Right, especially when there were reports of “beheaded babies,” babies “baked in ovens,” and hundreds of Israeli women raped.

I have “conservative” friends and family members who enthuse over the political commentary of Victor Davis Hanson. His columns appear on American Greatness (AG), where its writers regularly huff and puff against liberals and Leftists.
At first glance, what’s not to like about this fifth-generation Californian of Swedish and Welsh ancestry who is a retired Classics professor, a military historian, and a part-time farmer who broke ranks with the Conservative Inc., National Review bottom feeders from the DC Swamp to write and speak in defense of and support for Donald Trump?

Hamas fighters attacked Israeli military positions and settlements near Gaza on October 7 and took the Israelis completely by surprise. Around 1,400 Israelis, many of them soldiers, were killed, and hundreds of Israeli civilians were taken captive to be used as barter in the eventual ceasefire negotiations. (more…)

Events in the Middle East continue to escalate. As the great powers of the present day continue their mobilization of resources, men, and materiel, war on a global scale is on the horizon. While the world is transfixed by events in Palestine, fighting in Ukraine grinds on, and the specter of China’s ongoing confrontation with Taiwan remains simmering in the background. (more…)

If someone said “Amichai Eliyahu” to me, my first instinct would be to say, “Gesundheit!”
Amichai Eliyahu is Israel’s Minister of Heritage, which apparently means that his role is to maintain a long and seemingly uninterrupted heritage of seeing Jews as divinely anointed and everyone else as subhuman cattle to be extorted and murdered whenever The Chosen see fit. (more…)

Martial law (definition): Military government, involving the suspension of ordinary law.
Emergency (definition): a serious, unexpected, and often dangerous situation requiring immediate action.

Extremely high, in my view. (more…)

One could make the case that Hamas’ surprise raid has gifted Israel the pretext it needs to enact all of its long-standing geopolitical goals. Israel’s ground offensive will not only focus on destroying Hamas, but will also have the peripheral effect of displacing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, which Israel will not allow to return once the fighting is over — if it is indeed ever over. Knowing this, regional players such as Jordan, Egypt, and Turkey have all stated they will not take in Palestinian refugees — but it remains to be seen if they will stick to that policy. Western governments, of course, are already preparing the ground to take them in. (more…)

The Israeli military is poised to undertake ground operations in Gaza at any moment. At least that’s what is being touted by almost every Israel-friendly media outlet in the world. I have a feeling that even though Israel is technologically superior to Hamas’ irregular fighters, it’s not going to go particularly well for the Jews. (more…)
