It is, nevertheless, the Conservative Blog post that has no particular theme, and where everything is on topic. Let’s just remember that we want to avoid ad hominem attacks on others. We don’t want to engage with trolls. We want to moderate our language ourselves as responsible and mature adults, choosing to use fruity language only where it is necessary.

“A well known British Islamist preacher, Hamza Tzortzis, has turned up on the Ashley Madison user list that was leaked by hackers earlier this week, according to his own Facebook page.
Tzortzis, who is a prominent member of the Islamic Education and Research Academy which tours British universities posted yesterday that he had been tipped off that his details were included in the leak, but denied ever using the extra-marital dating service.
He is best known for his debates with atheist Richard Dawkins, but Tzortzis has also made statements flagged up in the British media in recent years. He has claimed that those who leave Islam “should be killed” as well as arguing that beheading is painless. He has also argued in favour of setting up an Islamic caliphate.”
So Praise Allah!

“Three Americans and a Briton who foiled a suspected terror attack on a train have received France’s top honour from President Francois Hollande.” These men were indeed brave heroes and we must all be grateful for their courage. It is right and good that France has honoured them, but I wonder what would have been the outcome here in Britain. Would our wimpish government have dared to honour men who prevented an islamic fanatic from carrying out his evil deed? Would Cameron have protested that this wasn’t the work of moslems, and would the many ‘humane rights’ traitors who defend criminals here have protested at the actions of these four brave men?

“Children as young as three months old have been found to have a bias towards women who are the same race as themselves.
Now, a University of Delaware scientist has discovered a simple exercise that he claims can undo this unconscious racial biases in young children.
Using the technique of measuring how much time the babies spend looking at pictures of faces, Paul Quinn has spent a decade studying how infants classify race and gender.” And failed.

There is a definite whiff of sulphur in the air surrounding these enquiries and by now the police should either put up, or shut up. It’s beginning to look like an everlasting inquiry which has rich pickings for incompetent investigators and politically motivated lawyers. If that is not the case, then how about some outcomes, one way or the other? Feel some collars chaps and let the courts test the validity of the ‘victims’. Justice must be seen to be done.

EC @ 10:01
Not that Baron would ever defend to chief apparatchik from Brussels, EC, but the idea of open borders is not something new, something with which the EU monstrosity could either get credited, or even be thanked for introducing as a first.
Passports as we know them were introduced only after WW1, before that time one could get a piece of paper to facilitate travelling (a free passage) through territories other than that he was a citizen of. The original idea, dating back to the Middle Ages was to offer the traveller a safe pass through ports and city gates, a must if one wanted to avoid getting ambushed at night in the open countryside. Only the monied people had it. In the British Museum, there are examples of such ‘passports’ of envoys travelling to the Vatican (17th century?).
In continental Europe people could and did travel without a passport before WW1, more important was a piece of paper saying one did acquire a certain professional skill.
A book by a Czech writer named Hasek published after WW1 tells of his travels in countries as diverse as Poland, Italy, Germany, the Balkans, Austria, Hungary and Russia where, as he reports, a bribe was what kept you out of jail (nothing much has changed then).
The one key difference between Europe with open borders then and now was one didn’t get a penny from anyone when crossing into another country, and unless one could prove to have money or employment (or be heading for one), one could and often did get arrested for vagrancy, shipped back to the mother country.
Apologies for the lecture, Baron felt like enlightening you, but do challenge him if you like.

Good expose of the realignment between the two totalitarian constructs, one or two details are missing though. Following the Munich Agreement (September 29, 1938) through which Adolf annexed a large chunk of Czechoslovakia, the Czechs also lost territory to Poland and Hungary, the former occupied the Silesian region (quarter of a million people lived there), the latter took over the Carpathian lands in the east.
The training of officers was mutual, Mr. Boot mentions only German military men trained in the Soviet Union, there also were top Soviet military men trained in Germany (before the Austrian mama took over, however), most of them got shot by the Georgian thug in the cleansing of the armed services (army, navy, airforce) either before or after Barbarossa, their wives arrested, some also shot immediately, others when the hostility between the two dictators began.

When police investigators start to jump to the order of politicians – or the hue and cry of the mob, we are all in the cacky. They should do their job; objectively, following the evidence and ignore the external clamour whilst doing it. And ‘leaking’ to cover their arses, or for the purpose of fishing expeditions, should be made a criminal offence, per se. It already is, actually, but the chance of that law ever being enforced is indeed very slim.
The politicisation of the police function is now almost comprehensive. It is to be deplored as much as debauchery among the ‘great and good’ (aka the gruesome and gutless).

Most young and some older people take the Schengen deal as something out of ordinary, a deal negotiated by the EU member countries we should all be thankful for, a feature of the 21st century, but it’s no such thing, travel was much freer before WW1, and the more one goes back the freer it was even for people with little money. It took time, but there were no restrictions at the borders except if one carried a trade, had to pay custom.
Sorry to labour this point, but by pure chance the barbarian had a heated discussion last week with one of his neighbour’s friends who is staunch supporter of the EU (a former teacher, came to visit the neighbour), he raised the issue of free travel, claimed we should be thankful to the Brussels fruitcakes for enabling it, which for some unfathomed reason infuriated Baron more than anything else he said, and there was a lot he said. Still, EC, Baron won’t bring it up again.

Frank P 0954
Really.
But aside of that.
Stephen Hawking is a pompous media jerk and an abject liar.
Check out the Catholic League for religious and civil rights July 2006:-
“On June 15, astrophysicist Stephen Hawking said that Pope John Paul II once told scientists that “It’s OK to study the universe and where it began. But we should not inquire into the beginning itself because that was the moment of creation and the work of God.”
The news story said that Hawking did not say when the pope allegedly made this remark. That didn’t stop us from tracking it down, and what we found doesn’t speak well for Hawking.
Hawking, in his book A Brief History of Time, states on page 120 that at a 1981 Vatican conference on cosmology Pope John Paul II said that “it was all right to study the evolution of the universe after the Big Bang, but we should not inquire into the Big Bang itself because that was the moment of Creation and therefore the work of God.” Importantly, there are no quotation marks around those words and no citation is offered. Ergo, this is Hawking’s impression of what the pope said.
Here is what the pope actually said: “Every scientific hypothesis about the origin of the world, such as the one that says that there is a basic atom from which the whole of the physical universe is derived, leaves unanswered the problem concerning the beginning of the universe. By itself science cannot resolve such a question: it requires human knowledge which rises above the physical, the astrophysical, what we call the metaphysical; what is required above all is the knowledge which comes from the revelation of God.”
The pope then quoted Pope Pius XII as saying, “We would wait in vain for an answer from the natural sciences which declare, on the contrary, that they honestly find themselves faced with an insoluble enigma.”
In 1988, John Paul said that “Science can purify religion from error and superstition; religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.” We quoted this statement to the media, and then added that “Hawking, who claims—without any evidence—that space and time have no beginning and no end, would be wise to refrain from positing false absolutes and learn to realize when he’s out of his league. Most important, he should stop distorting the words of the pope.”
Hawking got away with his little stunt because he’s the darling of the media. They treat him as if he’s some sort of saintly scientist who can do no wrong. Indeed, the same media outlets that ran with Hawking’s erroneous account of what the pope said at the conference failed to do a follow-up story after we exposed his botched rendering of the facts.
In any event, there is a monumental difference between saying that there are certain questions that science cannot answer—which is what the pope said—and authoritarian pronouncements warning scientists to back off. Hawking should get his facts straight and refrain from putting words into people’s mouths!”
Jeremy Corbyn has gone off the rails again this morning. This time by suggesting that there should be “women only” carriages on trains & underground trains. Can you imagine the fuss from the feminists if someone had suggested that there should be “men only” carriages! Is he trawling for female votes? Ironic that devout muslim males will probably vote for women only carriages too!
Reportedly, rapes and sexual assaults on women on trains, and crimes of violence on other genders, have risen in recent years. I wonder why?
The problem with “women only” carriages on trains is that, logically, they will be as ineffective in preventing rapes/assaults on women as “gun free zones” have been in stopping mass shootings in the USA.
Baron:-
Hawking is fond of Private Eye:
In 1975 he bet fellow cosmologist Kip Thorne a subscription to Penthouse magazine for Thorne against four years of Private Eye for him that Cygnus X-1 would turn out to not be a black hole. In 1990 he acknowledged that he had lost the bet. His explanation for his position was that if black holes didn’t actually exist much of his research would be incorrect, but at least he’d have the consolation of winning the bet.
EC.
I am not so sure he is not correct.
When I occasionally catch a late train back from Paddington with my daughter we witness behaviour that would make Corbyn’s idea a godsend.

Cosmology is where science meets religion and the boundaries between the two become very blurred. Objective scientific method demands that in order to be scientific a theory must be capable of being falsifiable by experiment, or observation. If a theory is not falsifiable thus, then it is not scientific, it is rather a belief, cult or religion .
Did not Hawking embrace Climate Change, specifically AGW? Now there’s a cult!

I was told a story, in the 1970’s, about a dentist who, being somewhat of a Clasicist, told his patient to brush his teeth with vim, that is, vigorously, not with VIM. It took all the enamel off his teeth!
I would think the bath treatment would have needed to be at an appropriate strength and duration to be safe for any particular area of the body and therefore should have been supervised, and that would be with someone with healthy skin who wanted a few layers of old skin off their arms or legs! And then there are the ‘delicate areas’ to think about!

Exactly. And nobody ever discusses her role in loosening the gambling laws of the UK to accommodate not-so-hidden mob interests. And the knock on-effects – increased money laundering; loan sharking; gambling addiction; and all the allied trades of gambling – the ‘lifeblood of organized crime’. Truly a trojan horse through the gates of the legislature for the ‘Goodfellas’. But then … there’s a whole stable of them for myriad inimical interests.
Alexander Boot picks up on Corbyniski’s segregated trains proposal and expands the theme set by EC yesterday (why stop at just carriages for wimmin?). I sometimes suspect that Alex visits The Wall – covertly garnering ideas:

Noted that the de-spick-able short-arsed immigration activist Jorge Ramos (a news anchor for Univision) spurned Bill O’Reilly’s invitation to discuss his spat with Donald Trump at The Donald’s latest press conference, but accepted Megyn Kelly’s to appear on the Kelly file. So he got what he was seeking – an expansion of his message, without the suffering the scorn of O’Reilly, thereby not only getting a soft ride, but trying to drive a wedge between the two big beast gringos of Fox, where there is already a degree of rivalry brewing up between them.
And, of course, Trump benefits every which way. More popcorn, please.

I know my long posts were frowned on yesterday but I could not resist this:
Dear Minister,
I’m in the process of renewing my passport but I am at a total loss to understand or believe the hoops I am being asked to jump through.
How is it that Bert Smith of T.V. Rentals, Basingstoke, has my address and telephone number and knows that I bought a satellite dish from them back in 1994, and yet, the Government is still asking me where I was born and on what date?
How come that nice West African immigrant chappy who comes round every Thursday night with his DVD rentals van can tell me every film or video I have had out since he started his business up eleven years ago, yet you still want me to remind you of my last three jobs, two of which were with contractors working for the government?
How come the T.V. detector van can tell if my T.V. is on, what channel I am watching and whether I have paid my licence or not, and yet if I win the government run lottery they have no idea I have won or where I am and will keep the bloody money to themselves if I fail to claim in good time.
Do you people do this by hand?
You have my birth date on numerous files you hold on me, including the one with all the income tax forms I’ve filed for the past 30-odd years. It’s on my health insurance card, my driver’s licence, on the last four passports I’ve had, on all those stupid customs declaration forms I’ve had to fill out before being allowed off the planes and boats over the last 30 years, and all those insufferable census forms that are done every ten years and the electoral registration forms I have to complete, by law, every time our lords and masters are up for re-election.
Would somebody please take note, once and for all, I was born in Maidenhead on the 4th of March 1957, my mother’s name is Mary, her maiden name was Reynolds, my father’s name is Robert, and I’d be absolutely astounded if that ever changed between now and the day I die!
I apologise Minister. I’m obviously not myself this morning. But between you and me, I have simply had enough! You mail the application to my house, then you ask me for my address. What is going on? Do you have a gang of Neanderthals working there? Look at my damn picture. Do I look like Bin Laden? I don’t want to activate the Fifth Reich for God’s sake! I just want to go and park my weary backside on a sunny, sandy beach for a couple of week’s well-earned rest away from all this crap.
Well, I have to go now, because I have to go to back to Salisbury and get another copy of my birth certificate because you lost the last one. AND to the tune of 60 quid! What a racket THAT is!! Would it be so complicated to have all the services in the same spot to assist in the issuance of a new passport the same day? But nooooo, that’d be too damn easy and maybe make sense. You’d rather have us running all over the place like chickens with our heads cut off, then find some tosser to confirm that it’s really me on the damn picture – you know… the one where we’re not allowed to smile in in case we look as if we are enjoying the process!
Hey, you know why we can’t smile? ‘Cause we’re totally jacked off!
I served in the armed forces for more than 25 years including over ten years at the Ministry of Defence in London. I have had security clearances which allowed me to sit in the Cabinet Office, five seats away from the Prime Minister while he was being briefed on the first Gulf War and I have been doing volunteer work for the British Red Cross ever since I left the Services. However, I have to get someone ‘important’ to verify who I am — you know, someone like my doctor…
who, before he got his medical degree 6 months ago WAS LIVING IN PAKISTAN…
Yours sincerely,
An Irate British Citizen.

The local weather forecast has just logged a full shining King Sol, promising 21 degrees c. for the weekend. Good! That means a tryst with Dolly Varden. After a week’s torrential precipitation, she needs a quick seeing-to.

Very good. That’s why Brillo and Frasier have to pay him so much! However, if Rod had ever done any commuting by train he’d know that NOBODY ever talks on the train in the morning, or in the evening. They are all too tired and pissed off, just trying to make it until the oasis of another weekend. You see the same people on the platform each morning – all staring into their mobile phones – You see the same people get into the same carriages each – you notice where they sit – you NEVER sit in THEIR seat. It really spoils your start to the day if some non regular does that! In the evening the rules are more relaxed but you still tend to see the regulars in the same seats & carriages. In the evening idea of segregated carriages is laughable. The passengers are packed in like a tin of sardines – as anybody attempting to board the SW Trains service to Guildford at Clapham Junction will attest. (They employ “whippers on” there you know!)
Baron, if at some future date you are forced to choose a segregated carriage then go and sit with the Gays. The decor will be superior, and furnishings will be comfier. Who knows, you may even be able to strike up a conversation. 😉
BTW, Baron. That’s a nice looking girl in the humorous Glock43 ad that you posted in the comments on Rod’s blog. 🙂

Facilitating his manipulative agenda rather than “humouring” him. He is not just commenting, not just exercising his right to express an opinion, but rather engaged in pursuing an agenda of deliberate agitprop.
The hard left have always exploited the forbearance and fair play of those they cast as their enemies in order to ultimately subvert and disempower them. Bringing various acolytes to the site under disguise is how the other place has been effectively subverted as a place to freely express conservative viewpoints. Almost every thread there now has a gang of left-wing “monitors” tagging and sneering at any “un-reconstructed” comments. Deliberate. Manipulative. Agenda.

An amazing knowledge of Glock’s line of business, EC, are you by any chance a secret agent for the purveyor of the tools of death?
Not particularly adroit posting under the Liddle piece, the one by the barbarian, as always done in haste, referencing stuff that doesn’t go down well with many e.g. the final solution, the gun, but coming under the same heading as the ‘women only coaches’ in that it fails to address the causes, merely plasters over the effects, only pretends to cure the boil. But then how often do we as a society target the former?
Someone should ask the comryd, and those who favour the introduction of women only coaches, what would happen to the rapists if they couldn’t perform their vile acts inside carriages, will they stop raping, causing GBH, pestering women?
Sooner or later we’ll have to re-dust Burke’s “society cannot exist unless a controlling power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere, and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without’, breathe new life into the institutions that used to install the controlling power in us, the family, the school, the church, and also return to real punishment, one that hurts, for those who cannot be taught the rules of civilised behaviour, still break the society’s norms.

What surprises is that it’s merely a quarter, Frank, given that the birth rate amongst the newcomers is almost four fold higher than for the indigenous folk.
The Tories made a promise to cut immigration into the tens of thousands, instead it runs in hundreds of thousands and the man Brokenshire calls it ‘deeply disappointing’.
Baron’s missing the MOT (that’s the BBC showing of the premiership matches in case you are puzzled) may be called deeply disappointing, the breaking of the promise that may have boosted their support in the election considerably borders on the criminal.

If the government appoints a pillock like this to organise the protection of major provincial city;
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Fahy
the inevitable upshot will be the emergence of self-appointed ‘Mr Bigs’ like the subject of your post.
The only Mr Big that should exist in any major conurbation is the Chief Constable, or in the case of the Metrollups, the Commissioner.
It would appear that all such constabulary appointments are now based on the successful applicants being politically pliable and immersed in the tenets of Common Purpose, rather than the wit and will to stamp on criminal upstarts.
Thus any determined two-bit villain is capable of ascension to a dominant role in the bizness of crime and subject only to the discipline of the underworld, which fortunately seems to be somewhat more efficient than the ‘forces’ of law ‘n’ order. ☺

The feminists get abortion without limit at the price of infanticide. The gays get gay marriage at the price of religious freedom. The teacher unions get lifetime job security at the price of lousy schools. The government bureaucrats get outsize salary/benefit/pension packages at the price of bankrupting the country. The race hustlers get the President fomenting racial hatred, at the price of people’s lives. Those dependent on the government teat get more and more stuff and a blind eye to fraud, while the economy sinks under our debt. The environmentalists and Silicon Valley get subsidies for green energy and EPA attacks on our energy industry, at the price of energy security and blue collar jobs. The Hispanic activists get illegal immigration, at the cost of good salaries and jobs for citizens. Hollywood and liberal Jews and academia get entry to the jobs and cocktail parties controlled by punitive, blacklisting, fellow liberals. And they all get to feel superior and sanctimonious at the same time by libeling conservatives as uncaring, racist, morons.

Lighten up old fella. Not a question of caring, rather one of curiosity. The lingo of sexual perversion gets more exotic by the day; I’m reassured that you too hadn’t heard of this latest kink. ☺
Frank p
Pansexuality is someone who likes heterosexual & homosexual sex but also sex with trans gender and gender reassignees and other people who are confused what sec they are. Its considered more inclusive than bisexual, who is someone who likes straight and gay sex.
Ps.I looked it up!
Frank P @ 01:50
Latest kink? Frank, you’re trailing behind, pansexual is sooooo out-of-date, my friend, things are moving faster than you can say gender what?, get your niece cracking on the sexual diversity front, and pronto if you want to be taken seriously.
When it comes to equality of sexual deviations not even the sky’s the limit, soon the outer space may not be enough either, Baron’s heart rejoices at the imagination of the universe of the fetish worshippers, he himself is working on another category, too, it will capture a man who loves having sex with as many partners as there are orifices of the human body, hard to decide whether to include nostrils, the health and safety may step in ….
Not that long ago, Facebook was offering 57 ‘gender’ options, that wasn’t enough, members were asked to further enrich the world of the perverted.
‘We’re hoping this will open up the dialogue,’ said Ari Chivukula, a transgender member of the team. And it did, and they did, options now include Two-Spirit, Pangender, Neutrois and Transmasculine, in the UK also Hermaphrodite, and Two* Person – bringing up their total choices to over 70 …..
Alexandr, if you will can you enlighten us on any of it?
Maybe, in this context, ‘pan’ isn’t a prefix of Greek origin but simply a statement of location. Cookery or lavatorial…..it’s up to you!
Baron, alexandr, Ostrich,
Thanks for bringing me up to speed. One is never too old to be educated, but thank God I’m too old to be asked to participate!

I also note that nobody reacted to the Pink News item about the pedigree of the prospective Mayoral candidate for UKIP. I suppose the rampant debauchery among those appointed to lead, protect and serve us, has now become so commonplace as to be accepted as the norm.

Those employed by the BBC, announcers etc are obviously all pansexual. It encompasses all orifices, including the holes their shoe laces pass through! Probably a lot of magistrates and judges are also in this band of pansexuals.

Re the Pink News, Frank, the cuddly looking young poofter heading the piece (the spellchecker switched poofter to profiteer, not a bad choice given that’s what they often do in the current environment), Baron read it, found it blandish in style and substance, wasted no time commenting on it). It’s of interest, but marginally so, another perceived victim of the pink phylum, but just a plain gay, this, Baron’s afraid, won’t get him very far, he must discover the till now undiscoverable true inner himself, scratch beyond the bottom of the depravity barrel, reveal it all, blame it on abuse by the parents or society, then perhaps the progressives will notice him, he’ll command many a column inch in the MSM, get the backing of the BBC, even the boy may chip in, and who knows, even the Mayorship may get within reach.

Nothing much shocks Baron these days, anne, but shall he tell you what might?
The boy saying ‘I’ve instructed the Culture Secretary to tell the BBC the license fee will be scrapped after six months’, or ‘I believe now we humans have very little to do with AGW, all subsidies on solar, wind turbines and any other similar contraptions are abolished forthwith, the money saved will go towards the gasification of our massive coal fields, the energy prices should be down by 75% within 5 years’, or ‘our interests nor always coincide with those of our American friends or our European allies, negotiations for our immediate withdrawal from the EU will start next week’.
Any of the three, anne, and the shock would engender another coronary for the barbarian.

Stop sulking at once, Frank, as you can see, Radford’s carrying the rainbow flag for now, Baron will also step in at some point, and he’s sure we can get others to visit the site, follow the tragic path of the pinky candidate to oblivion. A deal?
Btw, the shade of pink the site displays doesn’t appeal to Baron, generally speaking, he has nothing against the colour pink.

Frank P @ 19:06
Will the guru allow the poorly educated Slav to make just a few smallish points on the omni-all’s lament on Jeffrey’s running of the Treasury, please. OK, just two points (for some reason the spellchecker keeps changing ‘points’ to ‘pints’, bloody annoying this built-in self correcting feature).
It’s expenditure above income that causes deficits, not liabilities over assets as Mr. Boot seems to think (that’s point number one), it may seem the barbarian is being pedantic, but he isn’t, a country’s (or for that matter Baron’s) deficit arises because she (the country) or Baron is spending more than her/his income allows, the difference gets covered by borrowing. In case neither could find a willing lender, a bankruptcy follows, and it’s only then that liabilities and assets come into play.
This brings in the second point. The quotes by Brittain and Smith are not comparable. What Brittain meant was that in the case of a family in civilised times, there’s someone ‘above it’ as it were, the Government, it can and should help, if it didn’t people would revolt, vote in another Government. There is nobody that could help the Government, it must help itself. Not that Baron backs fully this division of responsibility, he merely explains what Brittain had in mind when he said it.
Smith’s observation was merely that both a family and the Government ought to exercise prudence, and one can be prudent even if one has to borrow. We, or rather most of us, borrow to (say) purchase a house, not many have enough cash to finance a property deal outright, being prudent here means we borrow within out means, possibly also take up an insurance in case we fall ill, our income temporarily ceases.
Apart from that the omni-all Mr. Boot is spot on, not that it matters, but Baron also reckons Jeffrey isn’t doing enough to balance the books, but that’s politics, he (Jeffrey) has an eye on the top job, has to ‘tread lightly’ to avoid missing it.
How did this crook get into the slot?

Time for Roman Catholics to do the world a favour: clean house by putting the White one back in place of asinus in cathedra – I think he is still available, lives just down the road.

Sorry Baron, but who is ‘Jeffrey’ and how is he connected to the AB post?
google this
exp(-((x-4)^2+(y-4)^2)^2/1000) + exp(-((x +4)^2+(y+4)^2)^2/1000) + 0.1exp(-((x +4)^2+(y+4)^2)^2)+0.1exp(-((x -4)^2+(y-4)^2)^2)

Well, on 29th 09:46 I suggested that, in the context, other meanings for the prefix ‘pan’ might exist. Others seem to have developed the idea. 🙂

The New Statesman which refuses to recognise the NUJ? If Jones was the old school left-winger he claimed he wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole and he’d be condemning the other ‘socialists’ who write for it as scabs.
The NS is a silly little rag written by ‘radical’ middle class children for ‘radical’ middle class children whose one aim in life seems to be to shock their middle class parents…who, having seen it all before, doubtless respond with a resigned “oh yes dear, that’s very clever…” while wishing they’d slapped a bit of sense into them as little kids instead of giving them unisex colouring books and social-worker action dolls.
FFS! Get this idiot out of power before he does any more damage…..

“Denali” is an anagram of Denial. Quite appropriate for a piss taking 3 day boondoggle selling the Climate Change snake oil, dontcha think…
OR, you think Bazza is trying to tell us something?

It is amazing how layers of bullshit adhere so firmly to earlier laid foundations. Obviously bs is the mortar of all history:

Notes from the Underground:
Alex Jones launches attack on George Soros and Co.
Discusses how the police have been set up in the course of a globalist strategy to use useful idiots black and white to provoke race war from which the people can be rescued from themselves. “The world is moving into chaos by design.”
Criminal banks are shipping drugs into the USA and are using the proceeds to corrupt the police.
Veterans, police,gun owners, property owners, Christians and libertarians,. and sheriffs moving against the grain of this globalist subversion threaten the chances of success for the globalist.
Corrupt federal politicians and politicos are now demonising State government.
Orchestrated economic crisis..
Alex Jones commits before God to fight the New World Order – launches a final money bomb campaign to raise $1M to take his broadcasts worldwide.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq8C8v0jAuM
His broadcasts are world-wide for those that choose to listen to them via www. So what’s with the $m dollars?
Frank P @ 13:49
Sorry about the delay, Frank, Jeffrey is Osborne, the honorary White House Muslim once called him that, Baron liked it, adopted it.
alexsandr @ 14:23
Still some clever people around, alexsandr, why cannot Baron be one of them?
Frank P @ 14:47
It doesn’t say, Frank, what is it they’ve tested, the skin, the ink?, could make a big difference.
But, quite frankly, who gives a shite?

If they are so keen on restoring the past, O(o), perhaps they transfer the land to the people who lived on it before the Europeans set foot in America, if there are still any left of them that is.
Crowd of migrants outside Budapest station, almost 99% seem to be young men. These are not refugees. They are economic migrants.
Peter from Maidstone @ 13:06
Spot on, Peter, not many look as if they’ve been in any danger ever, most of them are young men, well fed, well dressed, many if not all with mobiles.
Whilst it would be unjust to deny them looking for better life, in no way should they be let in as asylum seekers, or even refugees from a war zone.

Tune in and find out. Yes, there is an answer to your question which will not feed your ingrained cynicism.
Btw, while on the subject of cynical English policemen, for those interested in knowing why that MI6 agent killed himself and then, as Inspector Hound analysed it, zipped himself into his own duffle bag in London a few years ago, watch the September 1st edition of the Alex Jones Show (it’s free) at
