War of Religion in Israel


Evey weekend thousands demonstrate in the streets of Israel. It is a pacific civil protest, with many national flags and big antigovernment posters. There have no social demands, like better salaries, nor foreign policy changes, or destruction of the settlements on the West Bank. Their issue is against nationalism and religion. Apparently, they are fighting for democracy in the abstract, since they פhave no concrete demands. The big difference is religion: all the protesters are secular, they are against religious impositions like separation of male and females in public spaces, against patriarchy and for sexual freedom. And most they hate that full time religious students don't serve in the army. On the other side, we have a government democratically elected. It is rather conservative, and family orientated - so in my opinion, the dividing issue is the belief in God. It is secular (unbelievers) vs religious (Jewish). Secularization has won all over the West and the East, here we are the last remnant. It is only in Israel that the seriously religious are part of the governing coalition and fighting for the survival of Judaism. 

God always wins.

Escapism in America


 Since I know myself, always admired America. The first thing I did after graduation was to take a long coast-to-coast trip on a 3-month Greyhound pass. To my surprise, the real thing did not measure up to my expectations. I was disappointed with the food - the gelatinous pies, the over-fried chickens, the dirty bus station restaurants. Without a doubt, I returned to Argentina and took a job. But this graph shows something different - today, Americans are smoking marijuana by the ton and are stoned on the road and on the job. They are hooked on drugs. I can compare them to Yemenites with their khat. What good can come out of this? How will they compete against the ferociously money hungry, work obsessed Chinese?

Campaign of Intimidation


 The despicable fishwrap of HaAretz is persistent in its campaign of intimidation against the elected government of Israel and against the majority. It reports Palestinian claims before the International Court of Justice in The Hague against the occupation of the West Bank and the frightening consequences of not vacating it. Government officers stand to be judged and jailed, soldiers will be identified and processed, pilots will be detained in foreign countries. I checked the Court site and there is nothing. It is incredible that Israeli Jews would be manipulating world institutions of the goyim to cause problems, ultimately to themselves. In yiddish it is called moyser and there is no pardoning them.

The Greek Disease hits Calabria



In Italy for every 100 INPS pensions there are 111 active workers, and the bill drops to 103 if we exclude professionals who pay contributions to private funds. And in 39 provinces out of 107, almost all in the Centre-South, the employed are less than social security checks. In Calabria the record: 67 workers per 100 pensioners.

Calabria is the birthplace of the name Italy, given to it by the Ancient Greeks who settled in this land starting from the 8th century BC. The region is the Magna Graecia, with the foundation along its coasts of many Greek city-states (póleis) that remained for centuries among the richest and most culturally advanced of their time. During this period, Calabria was the home of key figures in history such as PythagorasHerodotus and Milo.

Eventually, their sybaritic lifestyle led to the depopulation of these rich and cultured settlements. The same happened to Greece proper. 


Punishment by Aperreamiento (Dogs)

 

Vasco Nunez de Balboa ordered the aperreamiento (punishment by dogs) of a group of forty natives guilty of sodomy. Spanish war dogs (like those kept by Argentine Presidential candidates) were an effective weapon for the eradication of pagan customs.

Tell me about yourself


 ‘My father was a Judean refugee. He moved to Europe with a few relatives, but there, he became a great and populous nation. The Europeans dealt harshly with us and oppressed us; they imposed heavy restrictions upon us. We cried to the Lord, the God of our fathers, and the Lord heard our plea and saw our plight, our misery, and our oppression. The Lord freed us by a mighty hand and brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey" Free version Deuteronomy 26:5–10.

Milei's War Mastiffs

Javier Milei, the leading candidate to Argentina's presidency lives with 4 Spanish mastiff war dogs, each weighing 100 kg. The four are identical twins. The dogs have their own air-conditioned rooms. It is crazy, but less crazy than Pablo Escobar's crocodiles and hippopotami and panthers.
