A mi! La Legion!

 Spain is going crazy! They are asking for a war with Morocco. 

Spain Excited

For more than two weeks, Spain has been excited by the "Moroccan invasion". It has organized daily mass demonstrations and declarations to affirm that Ceuta was, is, and will be forever Spanish territory in Africa. It's too excessive, since there are no signs that Morocco intends to take Ceuta. It is role-playing old wars and conflicts. Europe is very perturbed by Muslim immigration and cannot mentally deal with the situation. 

BTW, the pic contains spelling errors. 

P.S.: All over Spain, masses are demonstrating against "the Moroccan invasion". The publicity shows soldiers and past military glories. Maps show lost Spanish territories in the Rif and the Sahara. Could it be that Spain is heating up the population for an African adventure? 

Morocco is a friend of Israel. What shall we do if Spain attacks? 

The Lavi Fighter Jet did not die

 The Chinese J-10 has been sold to several Muslim countries. The J-10 bears a strong resemblance to Israel’s Lavi fighter jet, developed by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) following an audacious decision by Moshe Ahrens. The Lavi never entered production because the government considered it too ambitious for tiny Israel. The design was based on the Kfir Israeli fighter.

It was never published that China bought the Lavi's designs to accelerate the development of a domestically produced fourth-generation fighter jet. The funds China paid covered the project's costs in Israel. Instead of the Lavi, Israel bought American fighters. 

I read in Hebrew Moshe Ahrens's book Flags over the Warsaw Ghetto, on the neglected role of the right-wing (Jabotinsky-inspired) youth movements in the revolt. The Labor governments of Israel glorified Mordechai Anilevich and the role of the socialist movements while cancelling the heroism of their political rivals. Ahrens writes that it was impossible to start the revolt while people hoped to survive the war; only near the very end did they understand that the ghetto was to be liquidated and there was no more chance of survival. 

Risky investment

 
I have been reflecting on investing in BAZAN for almost a year because it is the only large refinery in the Eastern Mediterranean, and its spread is growing with each missile in the Persian Gulf. Yet, it is a refiner sitting in a missile-exposed complex with its war policy nearly exhausted, so it is a very risky investment. Anyway, I am very old and have little to lose - my future is short. I am not afraid of taking risks; I bought 3.000 U$S BAZAN stock. Let's see what happens till December 2026. Pic: the Yaroslav (Russia) refinery after taking a drone attack. 

Day One: It ended well.

Day Two: Even Better.

Shaman Durek, Prince of Norway

Durek is a good-looking Afro-American alternative psychic healer and the husband of King Harald V's daughter.  He runs a website and calls himself a sixth-generation shaman.  As a member of the Norwegian royal family, he has a chance of one day ruling Norway.  White girls fall for large, well-hung black men.

Yokneam

 My daughter lives in that town; they just bought a nice apartment. The Nvidia Lab can be seen from there.

US chip giant Nvidia once again beat all forecasts in its fourth quarter results published last night. Along with the impressive numbers, the main surprise was caused by its activity in Israel - Nvidia's networking division based on the acquisition of Israeli company Mellanox. The activity, which is largely managed by Israelis such as Michael Kagan and Amit Krig and is based in Yokneam, was once again the fastest-growing division at Nvidia with 263% growth compared with the corresponding quarter last year.

Radnóti (in Hungarian)

 
A Bori környék (Szerbia) rézbányái stratégiai jelentőségűek voltak a német hadiipar számára. Magyarországról több ezer zsidó munkaszolgálatost vezényeltek ide, ahol a Todt-szervezet irányítása alatt dolgoztatták őket. Köztük volt Radnóti Miklós is.

(My father and two uncles went through the same Bor mines forced labour camp).

Radnóti 1944 májusában került harmadszor munkaszolgálatra, majd Bor környékére vitték. Fizikailag egyre rosszabb állapotban is tovább írt. Verseinek egy részét egy kis noteszbe jegyezte fel.

Ezt ismerjük ma Bori notesz néven, a magyar irodalom egyik legmegrázóbb tárgyi emlékeként. Nem utólagos költői rekonstrukció, hanem a pusztulás közvetlen közelében született dokumentum.

Amikor 1944 őszén, a Vörös Hadsereg közeledése miatt megkezdték Bor kiürítését, Radnótit és társait gyalogmenetben indították Magyarország felé. Heteken át hajtották a legyengült embereket.

Radnóti végül már járni is alig tudott. 1944 novemberének elején, Győr közelében, Abda határában őt és több végsőkig kimerült társát agyonlőtték, majd tömegsírba temették. Holttestét 1946-ban exhumálták. Ruhájának zsebéből került elő a Bori notesz.

Radnóti nem egy névtelen áldozat volt, akinek csak később próbálták rekonstruálni az utolsó hónapjait. Írásban hagyta ránk saját eltűnésének, ill. eltüntetésének történetét. Verseiben ott van Bor, az éhség, a menet, a félelem, az összeomló Európa és a felismerés, hogy számára talán már nincs hazatérés.
