Ô Fwance, que sont devenus vos heros d'antan ?

Après Fofana, c'est Zarqaoui qui tombe ... and French youth weeps.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, scumbag

Hey, watch out! Somebody might try to take him out with a pop gun. Looks like Chiraq is not in the best of shape.

National Day of Mourning declared by French youth

Iraqi Prime Minister's office states that al-Zarqawi is dead. If confirmed, French authorities will demand a United Nations investigation and verification that it was a "clean shoot".

A dose a day keeps the French hype away

... and it's Europe !

Its sacraments (abortion)
Its holy writ (Roe v. Wade)
Its martyrs (like Soviet spy Alger Hiss)
Its clergy (public school teachers)
Its churches (government schools, where prayer is prohibited but condoms are free)
Its doctrine of infallibility (as manifest in the "absolute moral authority" of spokesmen from Cindy Sheehan to Max Cleland)
Its cosmology (in which mankind is an inconsequential accident)
And, of course, the liberal creation myth (Charles Darwin's theory of evolution)

Pervasive Simpleton Syndrome

To some it’s the unconscionable presence of Joooooz!, to others it might be that they’re serving up bacon (and a little truth too) – either way indignation and appeasment cannot secure an airspace.

The Air Force took part in exercises with Israel last year in Canada, it has emerged. Last month the government withdrew Swedish participation in international exercises because of the presence of the Israelis.
[ … ]
Despite the controversy, Persson described relations with Israel as good.

"They are good, and I have over the years seen to it that we have developed very close relations with the state of Israel, its government and with Jewish groups around the world as well as here in Sweden."

"I think that one needs good relations with both sides in the Middle East conflict."

Persson tried to play down the significance of the decision to grant a visa to Palestinian minister Atef Adwan.

As if they could have any actual impact on the Middle East conflict. My goodness, how could anyone say that without feeling stupid?
Good relations – selling them up the river – channeling thoughts about Israel by tossing Swedish Jews in the mix – not exactly the height of sophistication, is it?

In other news from the magic kingdom, social services resorts to Gitmo-like forced-feeding [.ram] the depressed, apathetic children of asylum seekers. The situation is created by the parents not being parents and transferring as much of their own hopelessness on the children as they feel satisfactory. The children exhibit behavior that includes not wanting to eat, drink, or move.

It’s called the Pervasive Refusal Syndrome. Now, a study published this week has shown that the number of children suffering from this syndrome has dropped. Their situation seems to be improving as their families are being granted asylum.

Not documented on their website, but in broadcast on state media, critics said that this is likely done to play on the fact that the fear children have of the consequences of not being allowed to stay in Sweden is used as a factor in granting asylum. The fact that their parents are establishing that fear doesn’t bode well for these fine future citizens, but I guess they aren’t picky about their culture’s future.

Would a NDP Prime Minister have likely been decapitated?

The decapitation plans that the Toronto jihadist-wannabes had for the Prime Minister brings to mind the incompatibility of their world view with civilized society. It also doesn't help that the "peace camp's" tactics would enable the demise of those same civilized societies whether it means to or not.

When you start thinking that compassion means not defending your ideals, your believability becomes the first victim. This mania is almost always expressed by people attacking the forthright in their own society. It brings to mind the fury some on the left in Canada spewed on their own military out of archaic habit. Said one Canadian group blog:

When Gen. Rick Hillier described the forces that oppose the NATO mission in Afghanistan as detestable murderers and scumbags Jack Layton called the remarks said "disconcerting."

Now , the NDP wants to bestow their most enobled status on the Taliban---that of victim.

In view of the conspiracy to attack Canadian targets which has been in the works for 2 years (long before Canada’s visible involvement in Afghanistan and during the Martin’s passive-agressive appeasement of anti-americanism), Layton has since taken a muscular looking stance for fear of voter abandonment.

Nonetheless, fellow travelers remain befuddled:

The irony was delicious. The lead paragraph of the Toronto Star story on this week’s terror arrests in Canada was: “In investigators’ offices, an intricate graph plotting the links between the 17 men and teens charged with being members of a homegrown terrorist cell covers at least one wall. And still, says a source, it is difficult to find a common denominator.” But illustrating the story was a photo of two women in full Islamic dress, their faces entirely covered except for a slit for their eyes. Difficult to find a common denominator? The investigators could have found it in the photo accompanying the story about them in the Toronto Star: all the arrested men were Muslims, and as more came out about their plans it was clear that they had been planning jihad attacks. All of which sheds light on why suspects demanded to be given copies of the Koran immediately upon their arrest.

But the mainstream media can find no "common denominator."

Something appears to be finally sinking in with the Canadian left - that a symbolic stance will not protect you from a violent ideology that opposes pluralism and free will.

Keeping the guilt trip alive

To extract the maximum possible from the rest of society, of course. Clearly they are not "racaille", but that isn’t stopping anyone from marching to offload some of their personal responsibility off onto the state, or even parasitically using a reputation to advance their careers.

Want to know what makes leftist squeal with joy?

Talking about the death of their political opponents, straw-men (or straw-women), or otherwise. They can’t fathom doing anything meaningful about murderous tyrant like Saddaam Hussein or Basher Assad, but will practically spunk in their shorts over the notion of one certain Baroness’ possible death which some find affirmation, if not a vulgar joy in:

Do they know something they're not telling us?

never will so much champagne be swilled by the working classes (of a certain age of course)

”Working classes” indeed. Do they really think that there were that many people who don't work who could have voted Thatcher in? How can they pretend to maintain that lie when their candidates lost?

I think more likely we’re talking about people of “a certain age” who were also the least likely to have ever swung a hammer or broke a sweat in the commission of earning the pay in their envelope. The satisfaction they find in a mediocre, growthless nation fit only to serve their egos is not surprising. After all we’re talking about people who still believe in ‘class’, or at least the type one can use as a political weapon of you can keep people poor enough to keep voting for the left that ran the UK into the ground in the decades previous to Thatcher. Basing decisions on little more than base personal satisfation hasn't worked since long before Nero tried it.

To begin with these clowns think that a state funeral would be “optional”, simply because they are the wisest, most lucid, undisputable perfect keepers of the universe, and they can deny a basic act of state to a political opponent. Is it any wonder that their notion of a strong and active nation is to have a dictator to love?

She's no longer Prime Minister, and no longer shows an interest in policy, and they want her dead. How very inclusive and diverse of them.

France's home grown 'Bush Chimp Hitlers'

Also - nichts neues, enh?

Peculiar though these characters are, there is a tradition of self destruction that goes back to the hoping-for-destruction days of the Red army faction and the Bader-Meinhof Gang. No, silly, not this gang!

Deutche Welle:

Citing an unnamed high-ranking security expert, Berlin daily Der Tagesspiegel reported on Wednesday that three German women who have converted to Islam allegedly planned suicide bomb attacks in Iraq and Pakistan.

Suspected suicide bomber wanted to take child along

Another newspaper Der Berliner Zeitung reported that the 40-year-old women from Berlin also planned to involve her young child in the attack.

"She apparently planned to draw her two-year-old child, who lives with her, along with her to death," the paper quoted an unnamed police source in Berlin. One of the other women also apparently planned to take her one-year-old child with her to Iraq.

Winners, I tell ya. Tip of the mütze to Clarsonimus the Great of Pankow.

Back to the motivation, it seems most prominent in the developed world where some can live idle lives supported by others, and their sacrificing of the whole social system is thought of as a personal sacrifice that they’re willing to accept. To begin with, you have to believe that other peoples’ lives are at your personal disposal to begin with. Erin Pizzey some years back did the definitive dismemberment of the matter:

«What I saw happening were groups of left-leaning, white, middle-class women gathering together to hate men. Their slogan was: "Make the personal political." What I could see happening was that the most vociferous and violent of the women took their own personal damage, their anger against their fathers and lovers and expanded their rage to include all men.

Many of these women were "trust fund bunnies" meaning that they lived off their rich father's money.

Some went to Germany to join the Badermeinhof revolutionaries. Others went to Holland to join the Red Stockings and some chose to come to England. England seemed destined to become the revolutionary hot bed for terrorists all over the world, Beirut by the Thames.

With Jihad, they can find a great deal of personal damage to pity themselves over. Otherwise it might be the face-saving way-out from the society that marched for and demanded for the revolution minded.
Either way, this isn’t the result of reasoned social thought, it’s a personal indulgence to prop ones’ former assertions up on without having to admit failure.

The fuse is lit!

Party Time with the Workers' Struggle

"Karl Marx Tent"? "Women's Liberation Lane"? "Political Town"? "European Workers Lane"? "Toilets"? Yes, that's right. I must be at the annual celebration of Lutte Ouvrière, France's Marxist-Trotskyist party aka Workers' Struggle.





Next to city of science, the Middle Ages (finally) explained:

When not listening to the various speakers, you can stroll down European Workers Lane and have:
Fun with Karl and Leon

Passing under a German "Workers of the World Unite" sign (and in front of a guy who seems to have escaped from Columbine) is the Trotskyists' answer to Disney's electrical parade.
