Islam is Destroying Western Culture: Europe

Robin M. Itzler

If you wish to experience Europe with all its unique nations, hurry because the entire continent is rapidly changing due to (legal and illegal) unchecked Islamic immigration, demographic shifts, and political pandering. Even with no future immigration, Muslims in Europe will increase their population. They are giving birth at a much higher rate than non-Muslims: 2.6 children compared to 1.6 children. It doesn’t take a mathematician to see where this goes. In 2006, Muammar Gaddafi said:

“We have 50 million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe—without swords, without guns, without conquest—will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades.” Most European leadership is blind to what is happening—or doesn’t care.

If you visit Europe, know where you are walking. The Migration Research Institute in Budapest, which is affiliated with the renowned Matthias Corvinus College, estimated in 2024 that there are 900 NO-GO ZONES across Europe. This is the result of Europe’s open-border policies that brought in an influx of Muslims who do not wish to assimilate into their adopted homeland. Instead, they want their adopted home- land to become an Islamic “Sharia paradise.”

German playwright Botho Strauss wasn’t afraid to say what many have been thinking:

“In the course of the demographic change due to the majority of Muslim population in the metropolises expected in the near future, other priorities could emerge with respect to tolerance and diversity. How ridiculous and senseless then it is to continue with the tired and saccharine tones of ‘tolerance’ towards a class of people who in our cities are rising to the majority.”

Throughout Europe, if you say anything about what is happening to your country or continent due to the influx of legal or illegal radicalized Muslim immigrants, you’re quickly called Islamophobic—and possibly arrested. For example, Member of Parliament Paul Scully was verbally attacked in February for appearing on BBC Radio London, where he responded to another MP by saying:

“There are areas where there are a tiny minority of people who make people uncomfortable about not being of their religion, of their culture, who are misinterpreting their own doctrine. That’s not to say Tower Hamlets itself is a no-go area.”

Scully was quickly criticized for even implying that London has any no-go areas. The BBC quoted a source close to London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan:

“Unfortunately, Paul Scully is resorting to a notorious Islamophobic trope - with the highly offensive and untrue claim that there are ‘no-go’ areas for non-Muslims in parts of London.”

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer calls anti- immigrant “far right” as if it’s a bad thing to want to protect your homeland from an Islamic invasion. Just ask the people in Wethersfield, England who will only whisper the truth about what asylum seekers are doing to their once quaint village.

Observations From the Back Row, With News and Views For March 28, 2025

By Rich Kozlovich Tags:

I've been reading how Disney's Snow White is such a Woke disaster, it will lose tens of million s of dollars, and this has been the pattern at Disney for a long time.  I ended my TV subscription a long time ago, and they destroyed the Star Wars franchise, again losing millions, and raised prices at their amusement parks to make up for that, and are now losing visitors. 

What boggles the mind is their continued crusade to push all this Woke stuff in spite of failure after failure, and now, it's my opinion, we’re going to see the public become much more open about why they hate all this stuff. Calling them by whatever negative epithet is of the moment is going to bounce off people because the alternative media has exposed the consequences of “Wokeness” and people are fast coming to the conclusion they just don’t care what these leftists think, what they do, or what they say.   

Culture is king, and we have to wonder if we're now seeing a cultural shift.  It's being claimed the Gen Z generation is one of the most conservative generations because they've suffered the consequences of Woke, and don't like it.  But I have reservations about all these young college educated people. 

When doing man on the street interviews, and in the last one I saw was students on the beach, and they're asked fundamental questions about history and government, they're stunningly ignorant.  They don't know who fought in the Revolutionary War, they don't know who the Vice President is, they don't know how many jurists sit on the Supreme court, and the list goes on and on..... embarrassingly on and on... and these are college students.  That should concern everyone.  

With Trump and Putin talking about some sort of solution to Ukraine, and future economic issues, guess who's the most concerned?  China!  

I used to shake my head and roll my eyes at all the rhetoric about how China and Russia were now big buddies, but they have history, and that history hasn't been pleasant, correspondingly they never trusted each other before and they don't now.  I used to wonder if these journalists ever read a history book, but this kind of clabber was coming from geopolitical specialists also, demonstrating preconceptualism is a mental disorder, a disorder Henry Kissinger suffered from. 

When the dust settles the Russians are gong to be in need of a major fix to their economy, and that can't come from China, but S. Korea and Japan deals may be on the table, which also would concern China since Japan has stated a desire to take on more defensive responsibilities in the region, with U.S. approval.  

But real economic benefits will have to come from America, and that whole potential scares Xi.  But make no mistake, Russia needs this war to end or their economic situation will become so bad they won't be able to catch up to either China or the U.S.  Putin has put forward a plan for Ukraine to put under UN management, with some interesting initiatives, and that won't happen either, but it shows his desperation, and the geopolitical world sees it for what it is. 

The other mostly unspoken truth about Russia is it's demographic pyramid, it's a mess.  Ten years go it was estimated by 2040 ethnic Russians will be a minority in their own nation, and statistically there are less men than women, and with the massive loses in this war it's even worse.  Russian history is replete with wars, starvation, and gulags, and serious cultural problems involving alcoholism, AIDS, and mental illness.  The foundational cultural paradigm in Russia is suffering, and how to overcome it.  That history will never go away, the rest is potentially fixable. 

One of the things that's emerged economically out of the Russo/Ukrainian War is how nations found alternative sources for their needs.  Once that happens, no one is willing to go back to "the olden days", as now these nations have a greater degree of autonomy, and they like it.

Ukraine is insisting European nations contribute boots on the ground to fight Russia, and on the front line.  That's not playing well as they've only offered peace keeping forces after the war is over, which is the usual double talk and virtual signaling by Europe's "leaders".  

News and Views For March 28, 2025

Democrats

‘The New York Times Created Castro’ - During an interview with Kengor on Wednesday’s edition of The Alex Marlow Show podcast, Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow highlighted Kengor’s PragerU video on Cuba’s communist dictator Fidel Castro..........“A couple of things jumped out at me in your PragerU video on Castro,” Marlow said. “The New York Times created Castro, I had never thought of it that way.”.........

Editor's Note:  For those interested, please view by Humberto Fontova file, where he outlines all of this and much, much more, including JFK's corruption in preserving Castro, the embrace of media stars and Hollywood celebrities.  All this has been known for years, and suppressed for years by the Pravda media, academia, and the Democrat party.  RK

Quote of the day - The quote of the day comes via EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin Congratulations to Mr. Zeldin on the quote of the day: “I have terminated the $2 BILLION Biden EPA grant to this Stacey Abrams-linked NGO. The DOJ/FBI are investigating and the money has been frozen. It is insane that the Biden Admin would give $2B to an organization that previously only received $100!”...........

Alex Marlow with PragerU’s Dr. Paul Kengor: Democrats ‘Gave Us Pol Pot’ - During an interview with Kengor on Wednesday’s edition of The Alex Marlow Show podcast, Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow highlighted Kengor’s PragerU video on Pol Pot, which Marlow said confirmed his understanding that “the Democrats basically gave us Pol Pot.”....“Democrat policies led to his rise and thus widespread death,” ......

Well, That's How You Know the Dems Knew Biden Was in Rough Shape -  It’s now an open secret: everyone knew that Joe Biden was cooked—even Democrats. We’ve seen Joe’s deterioration in real-time, whereas the liberal media and the president’s allies manufactured this lie that the former president’s mental and physical health was top-notch. That Potemkin village collapsed when Donald Trump bulldozed Biden in the June debate on CNN. Worse, Trump didn’t have to do much; Biden was slow, slurred, and stupid......... Once booted off the 2024 ticket, Joe and his cronies made sure they could do everything they could to hamstring Kamala Harris.............What a selfish clown. Did he wreck things for Kamala? No. She wasn’t an upgrade. Harris was younger but just as stupid and incapable of doing media hits without coming off as totally insane........
 
Major DEI Non-Profit Files For Bankruptcy After Bosses Allegedly Stole Millions in

 

Donor Funds - A major DEI non-profit has filed for bankruptcy after its bosses allegedly stole millions in donor funds. The National Diversity Council (NDC)l filed for bankruptcy earlier this month after its board members filed a lawsuit accusing founder R. Dennis Kennedy and other top employees of siphoning off millions in funds for their own benefit. The lawsuit states:.........

House Handily Defeats Anti-Israel Amendments From Rashida Tlaib- Thursday was a bad day for Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), a particularly anti-Israel member of the Squad. The House passed the DETERRENT Act, also known as the Defending Education Transparency and Ending Rogue Regimes Engaging in Nefarious Transactions Act, which was introduced by Rep. Michael Baumgartner (R-WA). It did so without Tlaib without in favor, though, and without either of her two amendments included in the bill. ..............

Karen Bass' Destroyed Text Messages Have Miraculously Reappeared - Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is still reeling from the massive wildfires that engulfed the county in January. It’s likely going to be labeled the costliest natural disaster in American history, with damage estimates ranging from $164-250-plus billion. Ms. Bass was not in Los Angeles when the fires broke out on January 7. She wasn’t even in the United States. The mayor was partying in Ghana, celebrating the president’s inauguration, which hardly seems appropriate, especially since this trip was taxpayer-funded. Bass promised she’d never leave the country during her time in the mayor’s office............

NPR CEO's Testimony on Capitol Hill Yesterday Was a Disaster -This might be one of my favorite Congressional hearing exchanges of all time -- or at least within recent memory.  It features Republican Congressman Brandon Gill, a freshman from Texas, and the CEO of National Public Radio, Katherine Maher.  We'll get there, but before we proceed any further, please recall that this is the same Katherine Maher whose long virtual trail of woke, partisan, knee-jerk social media posts caused a stir after she was tapped to take the helm of taxpayer-funded NPR last year.  This clip has also made the rounds, in which she laments our society's "reverence for the truth" as a "distraction" and obstacle to making progress and "getting important things done."  In the hearing yesterday, she tried to claim these comments have been taken out of context, but her point seems fairly straightforward here, and it's certainly interesting coming from someone who leads a newsroom:...........

Fired Biden Holdover Hampton Dellinger Takes Another Loss with Appeals Court’s Latest Order - A federal appeals court on Thursday responded to fired special counsel Hampton Dellinger’s request to dismiss his case as moot after he withdrew his litigation earlier this month.President Trump fired Hampton Dellinger, the Special Counsel for the Office of Special Counsel last month, however, the Biden holdover continued to fight Trump in court and was successful because the case was assigned to a corrupt Obama judge.  The appeals court previously granted a motion to stay Judge Amy Berman Jackson’s order reinstating the Biden holdover.  Following the ruling from the DC Circuit Court, Hampton Dellinger said he was ending his legal fight with Trump............

DOGE

DOGE Says 315,000 Credit Cards Have Been Canceled, Limited by Federal Agencies - The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) said about 315,000 government credit cards have been canceled or limited by various federal agencies under a cost-savings program.  The Elon Musk-affiliated group wrote in a post on Tuesday that “up to [approximately] 315,000 credit cards” were canceled by a number of federal agencies, an increase from about 298,000 cancelations as of Sunday. DOGE said this was after a five-week “pilot program” was undertaken.  Credit card cancelations this week impacted agencies including the Departments of Homeland Security, Interior, Commerce, Treasury, State, Housing and Urban Development, Health and Human Services, Education, Agriculture, and Labor.........
 
Fort Knox? Gold cams! - Let’s face it—we’ve all got the gold bug. When President Trump announced recently that he would conduct an audit of the Fort Knox gold reserve, it was all anyone could talk about.  A friend asked if I thought the gold was still there. I would like to think so. I would like to think military discipline didn’t completely erode under the Obama and Biden administrations. However, time, technology, and the cleverness of rats mitigate against it.  A gold bar weighs 27.5 pounds. How easy would it be to counterfeit a bar, skim-coat it with some gold, and then swap it out for the real thing on the shelf? That’s what some folks imagine has happened. Others think that the physical gold has been lent out, sold, and replaced with worthless currency or just 1s and 0s in some government account......
 
Europe

New report: Netherlands is now euthanizing minors -Medical murder comes for the disabled children. Again. I mean, we’ve been here before, but for some reason, a sizable enough portion of the population refuses to heed the words commonly attributed to Spanish thinker, George Santayana: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” and so we traditionalists, “clinging to” (as Barack Obama might derogatorily say) life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, are left to scream into the void about how today it’s the retarded kids, tomorrow it’s us.

My Take -  Leftism believes in nothing except hate, greed, envy, lust, and the desire to hold power over their fellow man, and more than willing to use violence to tear down anything that stands in it’s way.   All that Hitler stood for and promoted is being embraced in Europe.  As a result, the flawed values of leftism has contaminated the thinking of Europe, and every aspect of European life. Europe is lost, and will really be what Bismarck called it, a geographical designation. And unless something dramatically changes, it will be conquered by Islam.  RK

The UK’s Immigration Nightmare If Keir Starmer continues to sink in the polls, and if the Conservatives return to power, Robert Jenrick will then become the Minister of State for Justice. Whatever happens, his voice and views on the suicidal immigration policy now in place in the UK must be heard and heeded. You can find out more about […]

UK: Illegal English Channel crossings soar to ‘record high’ despite repeated government promises to stop them - The UK government issued a statement in response to the boat crossings: We all want to end dangerous small boat crossings, which threaten lives and undermine our border security.  The people-smuggling gangs do not care if the vulnerable people they exploit live or die, as long as they pay. We will stop at nothing to […]

UK Employee Fired for Calling Hamas Killers ‘Disgusting’ Robert likes to call the UK “shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain.” I’ve always thought that an exaggeration, but the evidence keeps piling up that he is right. The latest horror story is about an employee of the Severn Trent Water Supply, Damon Joshua, a sewage worker who, on October 7, 2024, as part of a social […]

The EU’s New High Representative for Foreign Affairs Kaja Kallas’ Old Mistakes Things are looking up for Israel at the EU. The anti-Israel Josep Borrell is now gone. He has just now been replaced as the EU’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy by Kaja Kallas, the former president of Estonia known for her warm attitude toward Israel. However, despite her personal warmth, Ms. Kallas […]

Israel, the EU, and the Perils of a ‘Proportionate Response’ - The new EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Kaja Kallas, is repeating some of the errors and falsehoods of her predecessor, Josep Borrell: “New EU High Representative Kaja Kallas makes the same old mistakes,” Elder of Ziyon, March 25, 2025: True to form, Josep Borrell criticized and condemned Israel’s escalation in Lebanon […]

Government Incompetence

Report: Medicaid Misspent $4.3 Billion in Duplicate Payments-Taxpayers spent at least $4.3 billion over a three-year period covering the same Medicaid patients twice, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday. Medicaid paid health insurance companies for hundreds of thousands of patients who signed up for the program in two or more separate states. This happened when a patient moved to a............

Immigration

Visas for Terrorists, No Visas for Israelis - Opposing the deportation of campus terrorists isn’t about free speech. It’s about supporting terrorists. After the Trump administration moved to deport foreign campus terrorist supporters, including Momodou Taal, who had urged student protesters to take their cue from Hamas and tweeted “absolutely anyone the US calls an enemy is my friend”, there was outrage from the Left. […]

Chicago: Muslim cop vandalizes rabbi’s car, is not fired from the force or even disciplined If a Jewish cop had vandalized a Muslim cleric’s car, do you think the police would have been slow to fire him? Also, we would be inundated with propaganda about “Islamophobia.” But this gets little notice. EXCLUSIVE: Chicago Police Officer Mohammed Khan was caught kicking an elderly rabbi’s car.

Islam

India: Muslim gang kidnaps and tortures Hindu man for talking to a Muslim woman The Qur’an forbids Muslim women to marry “idolaters”: “Do not marry idolatresses until they believe, for indeed, a believing slave woman is better than an idolatress, even though she pleases you. And do not give your daughters in marriage to idolaters until they believe, for indeed, a believing slave is better than an idolater, even […]

Iran: Senior ayatollah tells US that Iranian people ‘will wipe you off the face of history and politics’ Meanwhile, in the U.S., prominent “influencers” tell us that Iran, which is working on developing nuclear weapons, is no threat to the U.S., and that only “the Jews” are insisting otherwise in order to advance the cause of a “Greater Israel” in the Middle East. The only people who could believe this are those who 

Hamas funded Columbia protesters, bragged to hostages about their ‘American operatives’ It was obvious from the beginning that the student protesters were tools of Hamas. Now it turns out that they were actually an arm of Hamas. This supports, of course, the idea that those among them who are not U.S. citizens should be deported. “Columbia activists worked with Hamas, captors told rescued hostage Shlomi Ziv,” […]

Mahmoud Khalil Hid His Work with UNRWA Mahmoud Khalil turns out to have been far more than the innocent student protester — not a leader, but just one among so many — whom he pretends to be. More on the latest news about Mahmoud Khalil can be found here: “US says Columbia student Mahmoud Khalil hid UNRWA work,” Reuters, March 24, 2025: The […]

Middle East

Iran and Turkey call on global community to ‘stop Israel’s crimes in region’ - Days ago, Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, issued calls for protesters in the US and Europe to stop the Israeli military in Gaza. Turkey has joined Iran in accusing Israel of “crimes” in the region against the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Yemen, and Syria. These are specific areas where Hamas, Hizballah, and the Houthis have all […]

The IDF’s Latest Blow Against the Jihadists in Gaza The British journalist Brendan O’Neill reports on the IDF’s recent renewal of fighting in Gaza, where it has devastated what remained of Hamas’ leadership, and on how the Western media, instead of celebrating, has been denouncing Israel for this achievement. More on O’Neill’s furious reaction to that media coverage can be found here: “Why don’t […]

Hamas Won't Like What the Justice Department Just Did  - The Justice Department on Thursday announced that it has disrupted a scheme to finance terrorist group Hamas. The DOJ seized a little over $200,000 in cryptocurrency that was supposed to go toward funding Hamas,............U.S. Attorney Edward R. Martin Jr. explained that the seizures “show that this office will search high and low for every cent of money going to fund Hamas” and said the terrorist group “is responsible for the deaths of many U.S. and Israeli nationals.”..........

Rockets to Roses: Israel’s bizarre trade cycle with Aza - In a striking twist of economic irony, “Israel” proper finds itself caught in a peculiar recycling cycle-of-trade with Aza (“Gaza” is the Arab name, but Aza is part of the Land of Israel).  Israel offers (and allows in) steel, food, gas, and free electricity to the Jew-haters in the client state of Aza, which in turn uses these resources to manufacture rockets.  Those rockets are then fired back at Israeli residents, where their fragments (if safe) are repurposed into… Judaica. Yes, really......Excuse me, I need to go duck.  Another economic boom incoming!......
 
Signalgate
 
A Reporter Asked AG Bondi About the Signal Story During an MS-13 Presser. He Didn't Expect This Answer. - Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel oversaw a successful law enforcement raid that captured one of the nation’s top leaders of the gang MS-13. This person, 24 years old, had been in the gang for ten years and quickly sharked his way to the top. Based on the documents recovered upon his arrest, he was one of the prominent leaders of this criminal operation. This individual was arrested by federal agents yesterday.........

What Are Dems Trying to Say Regarding the NSA's Secret Sex Chat Fiasco and This Signal Story?- This Signal story involving Pete Hegseth, Michael Waltz, and other top Trump officials has Democrats licking their chops over nothing. This story isn’t going anywhere, and no one is getting fired. So, scream into the void; we’re moving on. It was an unforced error as Waltz, or someone on his staff, accidentally added The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg into this chat on the encrypted messenger app. Goldberg alleges secret anti-Houthi war plans were divulged. They were not, but the media is going to peddle a lie because the chats were real—their contents are the subject of exaggeration....
 
The Liberal Media Is SIGNALing a lot of Bullcrap Right Now- Only liberal America could be more upset over an encrypted messenger app slip-up than a shambolic exit from Afghanistan that got Americans killed. Democrats think they smell blood in the water, as the media-manufactured fallout from the leaked Signal chat story continues to make the Left all giddy over nothing. .........
 
The Passing Signal Psychodrama - How does this blunder rank with prior diplomatic and military screw-ups?  When we finally learn the full melodrama of the so-called Signal 1-2 day “scandal” of inviting a leftwing, Trump-despising, Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg onto a supposedly secure conference list, involving most of the top Trump security officials, lots of questions need asking and answering.  Most importantly, who exactly had Goldberg’s private number, and ostensibly (in error [?]) could have possibly inserted it into the cleared list of participants in the discussions? Why Goldberg, rather than some random person of some 345 million Americans?...........
 
My Take - The above article was written by Victor Davis Hanson, and as usual he has great insights, and ..... great questions.... questions I've asked, and would love to see answers to them, especially on how this "journalist" got on that list in the first place.  It's been claimed this was a "mistake" by a staffer, and I have no doubt a staffer is responsible, but I questioned whether this was a "mistake" from the beginning.  One thing was clear to me from the beginning, and this was a nothing burger from a corrupt media, and Democrats with the integrity of scorpions.     RK
Voter Rights  
 
Supreme Court Grapples With Louisiana Voting Rights Act Case - The Supreme Court on March 24 grappled with a much-litigated racial gerrymandering case from Louisiana involving two consolidated cases: Louisiana v. Callais and Robinson v. Callais. Gerrymandering refers to the manipulation of electoral district boundaries to benefit a particular party or constituency......

Fired Biden Holdover Hampton Dellinger Takes Another Loss with Appeals Court’s Latest Order - A federal appeals court on Thursday responded to fired special counsel Hampton Dellinger’s request to dismiss his case as moot after he withdrew his litigation earlier this month.President Trump fired Hampton Dellinger, the Special Counsel for the Office of Special Counsel last month, however, the Biden holdover continued to fight Trump in court and was successful because the case was assigned to a corrupt Obama judge.  The appeals court previously granted a motion to stay Judge Amy Berman Jackson’s order reinstating the Biden holdover.  Following the ruling from the DC Circuit Court, Hampton Dellinger said he was ending his legal fight with Trump............

DOGE

DOGE Says 315,000 Credit Cards Have Been Canceled, Limited by Federal Agencies - The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) said about 315,000 government credit cards have been canceled or limited by various federal agencies under a cost-savings program.  The Elon Musk-affiliated group wrote in a post on Tuesday that “up to [approximately] 315,000 credit cards” were canceled by a number of federal agencies, an increase from about 298,000 cancelations as of Sunday. DOGE said this was after a five-week “pilot program” was undertaken.  Credit card cancelations this week impacted agencies including the Departments of Homeland Security, Interior, Commerce, Treasury, State, Housing and Urban Development, Health and Human Services, Education, Agriculture, and Labor.........
 
Fort Knox? Gold cams! - Let’s face it—we’ve all got the gold bug. When President Trump announced recently that he would conduct an audit of the Fort Knox gold reserve, it was all anyone could talk about.  A friend asked if I thought the gold was still there. I would like to think so. I would like to think military discipline didn’t completely erode under the Obama and Biden administrations. However, time, technology, and the cleverness of rats mitigate against it.  A gold bar weighs 27.5 pounds. How easy would it be to counterfeit a bar, skim-coat it with some gold, and then swap it out for the real thing on the shelf? That’s what some folks imagine has happened. Others think that the physical gold has been lent out, sold, and replaced with worthless currency or just 1s and 0s in some government account......
 
Europe

New report: Netherlands is now euthanizing minors -Medical murder comes for the disabled children. Again. I mean, we’ve been here before, but for some reason, a sizable enough portion of the population refuses to heed the words commonly attributed to Spanish thinker, George Santayana: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” and so we traditionalists, “clinging to” (as Barack Obama might derogatorily say) life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, are left to scream into the void about how today it’s the retarded kids, tomorrow it’s us.

My Take -  Leftism believes in nothing except hate, greed, envy, lust, and the desire to hold power over their fellow man, and more than willing to use violence to tear down anything that stands in it’s way.   All that Hitler stood for and promoted is being embraced in Europe.  As a result, the flawed values of leftism has contaminated the thinking of Europe, and every aspect of European life. Europe is lost, and will really be what Bismarck called it, a geographical designation. And unless something dramatically changes, it will be conquered by Islam.  RK

UK: Illegal English Channel crossings soar to ‘record high’ despite repeated government promises to stop them - The UK government issued a statement in response to the boat crossings: We all want to end dangerous small boat crossings, which threaten lives and undermine our border security.  The people-smuggling gangs do not care if the vulnerable people they exploit live or die, as long as they pay. We will stop at nothing to […]

Visas for Terrorists, No Visas for Israelis - Opposing the deportation of campus terrorists isn’t about free speech. It’s about supporting terrorists. After the Trump administration moved to deport foreign campus terrorist supporters, including Momodou Taal, who had urged student protesters to take their cue from Hamas and tweeted “absolutely anyone the US calls an enemy is my friend”, there was outrage from the Left.

Chicago: Muslim cop vandalizes rabbi’s car, is not fired from the force or even disciplined If a Jewish cop had vandalized a Muslim cleric’s car, do you think the police would have been slow to fire him? Also, we would be inundated with propaganda about “Islamophobia.” But this gets little notice. EXCLUSIVE: Chicago Police Officer Mohammed Khan was caught kicking an elderly rabbi’s car.

Islam

India: Muslim gang kidnaps and tortures Hindu man for talking to a Muslim woman The Qur’an forbids Muslim women to marry “idolaters”: “Do not marry idolatresses until they believe, for indeed, a believing slave woman is better than an idolatress, even though she pleases you. And do not give your daughters in marriage to idolaters until they believe, for indeed, a believing slave is better than an idolater, even […]

Iran: Senior ayatollah tells US that Iranian people ‘will wipe you off the face of history and politics’ Meanwhile, in the U.S., prominent “influencers” tell us that Iran, which is working on developing nuclear weapons, is no threat to the U.S., and that only “the Jews” are insisting otherwise in order to advance the cause of a “Greater Israel” in the Middle East. The only people who could believe this are those who 

Hamas funded Columbia protesters, bragged to hostages about their ‘American operatives’ It was obvious from the beginning that the student protesters were tools of Hamas. Now it turns out that they were actually an arm of Hamas. This supports, of course, the idea that those among them who are not U.S. citizens should be deported. “Columbia activists worked with Hamas, captors told rescued hostage Shlomi Ziv,” […]

Middle East

Iran and Turkey call on global community to ‘stop Israel’s crimes in region’ - Days ago, Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, issued calls for protesters in the US and Europe to stop the Israeli military in Gaza. Turkey has joined Iran in accusing Israel of “crimes” in the region against the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Yemen, and Syria. These are specific areas where Hamas, Hizballah, and the Houthis have all […]

The IDF’s Latest Blow Against the Jihadists in Gaza The British journalist Brendan O’Neill reports on the IDF’s recent renewal of fighting in Gaza, where it has devastated what remained of Hamas’ leadership, and on how the Western media, instead of celebrating, has been denouncing Israel for this achievement. More on O’Neill’s furious reaction to that media coverage can be found here: “Why don’t […]

Hamas Won't Like What the Justice Department Just Did  - The Justice Department on Thursday announced that it has disrupted a scheme to finance terrorist group Hamas. The DOJ seized a little over $200,000 in cryptocurrency that was supposed to go toward funding Hamas,............U.S. Attorney Edward R. Martin Jr. explained that the seizures “show that this office will search high and low for every cent of money going to fund Hamas” and said the terrorist group “is responsible for the deaths of many U.S. and Israeli nationals.”..........

Rockets to Roses: Israel’s bizarre trade cycle with Aza - In a striking twist of economic irony, “Israel” proper finds itself caught in a peculiar recycling cycle-of-trade with Aza (“Gaza” is the Arab name, but Aza is part of the Land of Israel).  Israel offers (and allows in) steel, food, gas, and free electricity to the Jew-haters in the client state of Aza, which in turn uses these resources to manufacture rockets.  Those rockets are then fired back at Israeli residents, where their fragments (if safe) are repurposed into… Judaica. Yes, really......Excuse me, I need to go duck.  Another economic boom incoming!......
 
Signalgate
 
A Reporter Asked AG Bondi About the Signal Story During an MS-13 Presser. He Didn't Expect This Answer. - Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel oversaw a successful law enforcement raid that captured one of the nation’s top leaders of the gang MS-13. This person, 24 years old, had been in the gang for ten years and quickly sharked his way to the top. Based on the documents recovered upon his arrest, he was one of the prominent leaders of this criminal operation. This individual was arrested by federal agents yesterday.........

What Are Dems Trying to Say Regarding the NSA's Secret Sex Chat Fiasco and This Signal Story?- This Signal story involving Pete Hegseth, Michael Waltz, and other top Trump officials has Democrats licking their chops over nothing. This story isn’t going anywhere, and no one is getting fired. So, scream into the void; we’re moving on. It was an unforced error as Waltz, or someone on his staff, accidentally added The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg into this chat on the encrypted messenger app. Goldberg alleges secret anti-Houthi war plans were divulged. They were not, but the media is going to peddle a lie because the chats were real—their contents are the subject of exaggeration....
 
The Liberal Media Is SIGNALing a lot of Bullcrap Right Now- Only liberal America could be more upset over an encrypted messenger app slip-up than a shambolic exit from Afghanistan that got Americans killed. Democrats think they smell blood in the water, as the media-manufactured fallout from the leaked Signal chat story continues to make the Left all giddy over nothing. .........
 
The Passing Signal Psychodrama - How does this blunder rank with prior diplomatic and military screw-ups?  When we finally learn the full melodrama of the so-called Signal 1-2 day “scandal” of inviting a leftwing, Trump-despising, Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg onto a supposedly secure conference list, involving most of the top Trump security officials, lots of questions need asking and answering.  Most importantly, who exactly had Goldberg’s private number, and ostensibly (in error [?]) could have possibly inserted it into the cleared list of participants in the discussions? Why Goldberg, rather than some random person of some 345 million Americans?...........
 
My Take - The above article was written by Victor Davis Hanson, and as usual he has great insights, and ..... great questions.... questions I've asked, and would love to see answers to them, especially on how this "journalist" got on that list in the first place.  It's been claimed this was a "mistake" by a staffer, and I have no doubt a staffer is responsible, but I questioned whether this was a "mistake" from the beginning.  One thing was clear to me from the beginning, and this was a nothing burger from a corrupt media, and Democrats with the integrity of scorpions.     RK

Who Really Are the Destroyers of Western Civilization

Muslims, Rape, Crime, and Western Civilization 

By Rich Kozlovich, Tags:
 
I've been reading The March of Folly by Barbara W. Tuchman published in 1984, and it's just as relevant today as it was then.  Why?  Because she asks why do leaders make decisions that are so obviously destructive to their own societies, both secular and religious, and the history she outlines gives you the answer.  Truth be told, as you read the things that went on in Europe's religious communities over the centuries you have to wonder how Europe remained Christian as long as it did.

  • Sex and Islam...and the decline of the West January 5, 2025 by Andrea Widburg The grooming/rape gang scandal enveloping the British government is a microcosm of Islam’s obsession and the West’s decline.........
Islam isn't a religion, it's a political criminal movement masquerading as a religion, and it isn't just about sex, it's about every criminal activity known to man that's not only excused by Islam, it's encouraged.

When Sultan Mehmed II was trying to conquer Constantinople things weren't going so well, and he turned that around by offering his troops everything in the city, all the wealth they could find, and everyone in the city, including nuns who were raped, enslaved, and dragged naked through the city. The only thing he would keep for himself was the city itself.

That turned the tables. No matter what's written, the foundational principles of Islam are greed, envy, hate, lust, and violence. That's why they get along with socialists, shared values.

After Musk Comments on Grooming Gangs, UK PM Warns Against 'Debate Based on Lies'. Elon Musk has criticised the UK government’s handling of child grooming gangs in a series of messages on his social media site X. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to protect victims of child sexual abuse and warned it won’t tolerate discussions on the issue that are based on lies. His remarks follow an ongoing exchange between UK politicians and tech billionaire Elon Musk, who is set to act as an adviser to the upcoming Trump presidency. Musk has claimed that Starmer had failed to bring “rape gangs” to justice when he was director of public prosecutions. He also suggested that safeguarding minister Jess Phillips “deserves to be in prison” after she denied requests for a public inquiry in Oldham......

Elon Musk Calls for Long-Overdue National Inquiry in UK on Rape Gang Scandal - In a series of posts on X, Elon Musk has been calling attention to a years-long scandal in Britain that was hushed up for years and is still receiving insufficient attention from British authorities: the phenomenon of rape gangs. These gangs have victimized tens of thousands of British girls, and quite likely many more than that. Yet for decades, authorities have been slow to altogether inactive in moving against them, and have occasionally even punished their victims and rewarded the perpetrators. The reason for this lies in the perpetrators’ identity and motivating ideology, which few dare to face.

This is the suicide of cultures that are mired in leftism, and who's fault is it these immigrant monsters are murdering innocent people in America?    According to the CEO at AllState tells us it's Americans who are at fault, because we're addicted to decisiveness.  And his solution is what? He pontificates:
 
We also need to be stronger together by overcoming an addiction to divisiveness and negativity. Join Allstate working in local communities all across America to amplify the positive, increase trust and accept people’s imperfections and differences. Together we win.

Wow, does that sound great?  There's a problem with that though.  It's stupid.  The positive that needs to be amplified are the traditional Judaic/Christian values that made America great, and the left has been fighting that for almost 150 years in America, tooth and nail, and violently.  This divisiveness isn't an addiction, it's self defense against a philosophy of national suicide.  

A recent article by Patricia McCarthy she partially quoted Cicero, but here's the full quote:

 "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague." -  Marcus Tullius Cicero 

Only Cicero never said that.  While I've used this quote in some of my articles, there's no evidence Cicero ever said that.  It originates from a  1965 novel A Pillar of Iron by Taylor Caldwell, but so what?   Does it really matter who said it?  The thoughts are valid nonetheless, and most certainly apply to what we've been seeing going on in America since the late 19th century, and when Stalin started sending his spies to America in 1920 ultimately filling the FDR administration with so many agents it became known as the most infiltrated government in the history of the world.  

It's a good quote that needs to be used more often, with a caveat, because it defines who's destroying Western Civilization.  It's leaders, both religious and secular.  I'll have more on this soon.

The Reality of Islam, Part VI

By Rich Kozlovich, Tags: Christian Persecution, Part I, Part II, Part III, Part IV, Part V, , Persecution of Christians Is Now Pandemic, My Gazette: Christian Heresy, and

As the years go by it boggles my mind at these nitwit leftists and their media catspaws screaming about Islamophobia.  Let's try and get this once and for all.  There's no such thing as Islamophobia, nor is it possible to be Islamophobic.  Why? Because a phobia is a mental disorder and an unnatural fear, and we have almost 1500 years of vile Islamic practices to justify being afraid.  Real fear, legitimate fear, historically foundational fear, and that's not imaginary, nor is it a mental disorder, because their vile actions are going on right before our eyes now.  How much violence must we behold before we grasp just  how dangerous Muslims are?

Islam isn't a religion.  It's a criminal political movement masquerading as a religion.  History and current events demonstrates the truth of that.  Crime, murderrape, kidnapping, corruption of the rule of law, and violence is rampant throughout the world where Muslims migrate, and most of Europe's leaders are covering it up, and worse yet, they're persecuting and prosecuting those who stand up to all this.  Islamized Netherlands: Pegida Leader Edwin Wagensveld Sentenced for Comparing Muslims to Nazis, and this is going on right now in America, and the Democrats are supporting it. What's worse is American churches are suicidally abandoning their Christian faith and heretically supporting this, with the support of a totally corrupt media.  Which makes one wonder if they were believers in the first place, and the same is true in Europe, Major Scandal Rocks the Italian Catholic Church: Bishops Accused of Funding Illegal Immigration.

The Islamization of Europe isn't a conspiracy theory, it's factual, it's history, that history is incontestable, and it's insane.  

Islam has no concept of world peace until the world is converted to to Islam, preferably with the sword.  As a result, Islam has been at war with the rest of the world in varying degrees for almost 1500 years.   Any harmony that exists between Islam and any other nation or group in the world, is never anything except temporary, and it only exists to allow Islam to reorganize and attack once again.  

Nor is there any harmony within Islam.  

The foundational values of Islam are hate, greed, envy, lust, and violence.  And the only ones they hate more than kafir (non believers) are Muslims of different sects, as each sect considers the other sects heretics, and the Koran demands the death of heretics.   

This is what Islam brings:

  1. Absolute authoritarianism without accountability. 
  2. Zero tolerance for criticism or questions.
  3. Unreasonable fears about the outside world that often involve evil conspiracies and persecutions. 
  4. A belief that former followers are always wrong for leaving and there is never a legitimate reason for anyone else to leave (apostasy is punishable by death).
  5. Followers feeling they are never able to be “good enough” (Muhammed is considered the “perfect man” and is to be emulated). 
  6. A belief that the leader is right at all times (Muhammed is considered inerrant). 
  7. A belief that the leader is the exclusive means of knowing “truth” or giving validation.

If someone tells you they hate you and wants kill you, and do it in the name of their religion, then you should believe them and must accept they really are barbarian savages

 "The barbarism of murdering women and children, taking them as hostages, and posting photos of their dead bodies to social media, is not a byproduct of Islamic warfare, it’s the whole point.

They're a medieval tribal culture with modern communications, transportation, and weapons, all of which means they must be contained and isolated, because they cannot, and will not, be assimilated.
