OMEN OF THINGS TO COME: RAMPANT ANTISEMITISM AT MAJORITY MUSLIM SCHOOLS IN BERLIN.

As the catastrophic implications of authochton Europeans to self-reproduce become increasingly clear, the brazenness of those who are replacing us is going crescendo. In many European cities and neighborhoods a combination of extremely low fertility among White Europeans and 'soft ethnic cleansing' by (mostly muslim) usurpers has led to a complete demographic turnaround to the extent that these places no longer resemble Europe.

Life is hard for the few authochtons who still remain in what are now de facto foreign entities on European soil. It's even harder for the remnants of European Jewry. A report from Berlin, via The Coordination Forum for Countering Antisemitism:



"There are many indications that antisemitism in Germany has increased in recent years on social media, in the public domain, within the political system, and in society at large. Jews often try to avoid locations where antisemitism is at its worst or may affect them. But that is not possible for schoolchildren. A number of extreme antisemitic incidents in German schools have been published in recent years, and by elaborating on several that have taken place in Berlin, we can get an indication of how serious the problem has become.

In April 2017, a Jewish school boy was tormented by fellow pupils of Arab and Turkish descent at a public school in Berlin’s Friedenau district. To protect his identity, his first name was changed, and he became known in the media as Oscar Michalski. He was not only insulted, but an older student shot at him with a realistic-looking gun. He also strangled Oscar to the point of unconsciousness. The school’s population is about 80 percent Muslim; most are of Turkish and some of Arab provenance.

The school’s headmaster, who taught mathematics in the victim’s class, said that he was unaware of the problems. And the school’s administration and social worker ignored them even after they were alerted by the victim’s parents. His parents then moved Oscar to another school. The French-German public broadcaster Arte broadcast a documentary on the story of Oscar.

Another case of antisemitism in a Berlin school came to light in December 2017. There, an 18-year old Jewish high school pupil at the Ernst-Reuter-School in the Gesundbrunnen neighborhood was told by a female student during a discussion on the Middle East that “Hitler was good, he has murdered Jews.” Fellow students added, “you are all child murderers” and “you should all be decapitated.” From that point on during recess, the boy decided to remain indoors for his security.

In March 2018, a second-grade Jewish girl at the Paul Simmel Elementary School in Berlin’s Tempelhof-Schöneberg neighborhood was mobbed because of her Jewish identity. Her father said that his daughter had been insulted and threatened with death by Muslim pupils because “she doesn’t believe in Allah.”




At the Paul Simmel school (grand majority muslim schoolchildren) in Berlin a Jewish girl was told by a muslim girl that "those who do not believe in Allah will be burned".




Also in 2018, German-Jewish student Liam Rückert relocated from Berlin to Israel, in part because he had experienced rampant hatred of Jews at his Jungfernheide public school in Berlin’s Spandau neighborhood. The school is known to be problematic. Sixty-two percent of its pupils come from migrant backgrounds. Rückert said that he realized he had to conceal his Jewish identity when, during a discussion about the Middle East conflict, a student of Arab origin said that if there were a Jew in the class, he would kill him. Rückert also said that he had a gay Arab friend called Hussein. They shared their secret identities. Once Rückert’s Jewish identity became known, he was constantly insulted with words like “shit Jew” and “shit Israeli.” The school refused his request to change classes. His mother, who is of Israeli descent, said: “We received no support from the school administration.”

In June 2018, it became known that at the highly reputed John F. Kennedy School in the Berlin Zehlendorf neighborhood, a Jewish student had been harassed by various pupils for several months. This school’s pupils are primarily from German elite families, as well as those of foreign diplomats. One classmate blew cigarette smoke in the student’s face and told him he should “think about his gassed ancestors.” On other occasions, he received notes from classmates emblazoned with a swastika. A large part of the class tolerated the harassment or participated in it. There had also been antisemitic incidents aimed at a female Jewish student. The school’s administration said that they hadn’t understood the problems for several months, but took action as soon as the issue became known. At the beginning of the new school year, the administration plans to introduce a special program on discrimination.

German authorities are slowly waking up to the problem of antisemitism in schools, and are beginning to address it, but only partly. The government recognizes that in many cases, the alleged perpetrators are the children of Muslim immigrants, particularly in Berlin, which has the largest Muslim and Jewish communities.

Despite some recent laudable efforts to combat the problem, it will take a long time before most German schools will effectively deal properly with antisemitic and racist incidents, and educate pupils against discrimination. If incidents nevertheless occur, the perpetrators should be severely punished. All such incidents should be reported to the authorities and school administrations, and those that do not comply should be reprimanded or replaced. This sounds like a near-utopian vision of how the German reality will develop."

RECOMMENDED READS: AT'S MONICA SHOWALTER ON ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ' VERSION OF SOCIALISM.

Over at American Thinker, Monica Showalter disassembles the walking disaster that is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:


"New York 'it girl' and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has always carried one great big piece of political designer baggage with her: Socialism, with all its ghastly train of ruin, which she is trying to repackage as something fresh and new and fashionable. So all eyes were on her as she got a big condemnation of socialism right in her face from President Trump at his State of the Union speech the other night, with the president denouncing its horrors in Venezuela and declaring "America will never be a socialist country." Seventy-six percent of Americans approved of the speech.

MSNBC's Chris Matthews, hardly a hostile interviewer, asked her for a response and she came up with this whopper.

Here's the transcript from RealClearPolitics:



"What did you make of the president's aggressive statement about Venezuela tonight, and he talked about being a socialist country and how we're never going to be a socialist country. It was pretty truculent but it tied the notion of socialism to that particular regime. What do you think about the president, why he did that?" MSNBC's Chris Matthews asked.

"I think that he needs to do it because he feels like -- he feels himself losing on the issues," Ocasio-Cortez said. "Every single policy proposal that we have adopted and presented to the American public has been overwhelmingly popular, even some with a majority of Republican voters supporting what we're talking about."

"I think he sees himself losing on the issues, he sees himself losing on the wall in the southern border, and he needs to grasp at an ad hominem attack and this is his way of doing it," the Congresswoman said. "What we need to realize is happening is this is an issue of authoritarian regime versus democracy. In order for him to try to dissuade or throw people off the scent of the trail, he has to really make and confuse the public. And I think that that's exactly what he's trying to do."




"Confuse the public"?

What is there to be confused about?

Venezuela's a disastrous failure under 20 years of socialism, with starvation, zero medical care, industrial collapse, sovereign default, massive inflation, and millions of Venezuelans fleeing for their lives. It's not Cuba they're fleeing to, either, it's any place their feet will reach that isn't socialist.

And her dismissal of the matter as an 'ad hominem attack' is nonsense - Trump brought up no person, which is where the 'hominem' comes fro, he brought up the results of her own beloved socialism.






What gets me about this is that Ocasio-Cortez is trying to pass off her socialism as something different, the argument that 'ours will be a really good socialism,' which dates back to what radicals in the 1960s argued as they pushed for socialism in places like Cambodia, something that led skull heaps with 3 million dead.

Tom Wolfe, who first observed this, noted that lefties have been pushing a Utopian vision of 'our socialism will be a very good socialism' for years.

Ocasio-Cortez (and her patron, Bernie Sanders) are always attempting to claim that all they want is a Denmark-style socialism, but that's nonsense - Denmark and the other Scandinavian states have market economies with no attacks on anyone for being rich or having a business, and very large welfare states - which, surprise, they are dismantling. The socialism Ocasio-Cortez is promoting is a very different kind, the kind of massive taxation, expropriation, state planning and an explicit claim that "capitalism will not always exist."

So let's take a look at how Venezuela got the way it got.

It came to socialism in 1998, nearly a decade after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

It was premised on a rejection of IMF fiscal choking as a means of paying off government overspending at a time when oil prices were low. There's plenty to criticize in that, but the solution offered, by Hugo Chavez, who took office in early 1999, is an even bigger disaster.

Chavez got elected democratically.

He ran into trouble when made a lunge for the money, illegally taking over the country's state oil company around 2002 and using its earnings not to keep the business maintained and productive, but as a vehicle for social services spending. You know, like Sweden. He fired the nation's oil experts and brought in politically correct cronies to take their place. "Now, the oil belongs to the people," he thundered.

Getting away with that, it didn't take long for him to start expropriating businesses in the name of 'ending inequality' and handing them over to more socialist cronies in the name of 'the people' too, which did wonders for the investment climate. Homes of "the rich" also were targeted. He changed the constitution to a socialist one, 'for the people' and called his socialist revolution "bolivarian" and said there would be no turning back. All of this would of course lead to a 'sea of happiness' and guys like Oliver Stone, Sean Penn, and Bernie Sanders cheered.

He also started cheating on elections, with electronic device manipulation (hey, it was modern!) and praise from boobs such as Jimmy Carter. A recall referendum on held in 2004 was clearly a product of this manipulation and fraud, and the beginnings of the opposition, led by Maria Corina Machado, began the first inklings of resistance in the name of democracy. No, Alexandria, the people were not confused by about that point. Yet all of this in Venezuela was still recognized as 'democratic socialism,' not the bad kind Fidel Castro enacted, shooting his way into power.

The downward slide continued. Judges were replaced by adherents of socialism and rule of law became subject to rule of socialism, in the name of social justice. Guns were confiscated, in the name of the public good. Free speech was shut down - with newspaper after newspaper going bust for lack of newsprint (they couldn't buy it from abroad because dollars were unobtainable, once again in the name of socialist equality). Television news was even more trashed - with Chavista goons shooting up their news floors (I saw this with my own eyes at Globovision headquarters in Caracas) and Chavista cronies with access to dollars buying up the few that remained. No more free press. All done in the name of the people's own good..."



I suspect AOC has of late been shying away for marketing reasons from that dreaded word that begins with S and ends on ocialism. The buzzword now seems to be Green New Deal.

Which proves that AOC not only flunked economy lessons but history lessons as well. There's a very good book out there by Amity Shlaes, The Forgotten Man: a New History of the Great Depression, in which Mrs Shlaes makes the convincing case that FDR's New Deal, far from solving America's woes in the thirties, actually aggravated them. Check out this video with Peter Robinson, in another life a speechwriter for President Reagan, interviewing the author:







I would buy one for Madam Socialist Vortex, but I'm not sure about her reading skills either.

RECOMMENDED VIDEO: PRAGER U'S "WHY YOU CAN'T ARGUE WITH A LEFTIST."

As per usual, an eloguent video courtesy Prager University:





There's indeed no arguing. Leftists are generally so absorbed in their own self-righteousness they take it at face value that no sane person could even think slightly differently from the way they do.

I have, alas, witnessed this several times in the company of family and friends of a rather leftist persuasion. Over the past year, on three separate occasions, during shared meals, suddenly Woman X (and then Man X) at one occasion, or Woman Y at another, or Sister X on a third occasion, would explode stating that "Trump was an asshole". On each occasion the woman put this statement forward with such an imperial air of being correct on the subject, that merely contemplating that someone else at the table might disagree to even the slightest extent, was out of the question.

Now I absolutely LOATHE, say, Hillary Clinton. But there's not a hair on my head that would think of suddenly exclaiming "Hillary Clinton is a perfidious CROOK" the moment I would sit down to have a nice meal with people you otherwise like.

These are just three separate occasions, but there have been many more. I can only conclude that leftists absolutely DON'T like it when someone disagrees with their exalted POV.

But then...


... I guess I'm telling you nothing new.

BELGIAN SCHOOLCHILDREN CLIMATE LUNACY GOING CRESCENDO, DELIBERATELY FUELED BY MSM AND TRADITIONAL POLITICAL PARTIES.

By now you must be getting to know Anuna De Wever, the 17 year old schoolgirl climate activist and Flemish version of Sweden's Greta Thunberg. If you don't, you're not up to date. Even the BBC, the New York Times and Leonardo Di Caprio have discovered her:








Some stills. This from the demo last Thursday:








Ms De Wever would NEVER be such a phenomenon if it wasn't for the eager, drooling two-pronged support of both MSM and the traditional parties. Belgian MSM, choke choke choke full of leftists and greens, is quite orgasmic because Anuna De Wever, as someone who is easy on the eye, very outspoken, AND not sure about whether she's a boy or a girl, is their dream candidate to promote the climate apocalypse if we don't go back living in caves. And surprise surprise, Anuna's mother is... a sociologist, and her father 'works' in the city planning department, i.e. sitting on his warm ass for a cushy government job.

This for instance is an HLN screenshot of two weeks back:




"Portrait of Anuna De Wever (17), the climate warrior who doesn't want to be a boy or a girl."


Not to be outdone, the Belgian traditional political parties are doing their damnedest best to recuperate the mass phenomenon of tens of thousands of youths demonstrating "for the climate" each and every week in Brussels, Ghent, Liège and next week Leuven, for in three months, there will be national and European elections and this climate lunacy is THE perfect excuse to neutralize the real pressing issue, unbridled immigration.


Meanwhile, in the real world, via The Weather Network:




"Sunday, February 3, 2019, 10:50 AM - Heavy snow left thousands of vehicles stranded in a 12 km-long traffic jam on an Italian highway Saturday. Firefighters were called upon to rescue some 200 people who had been trapped in cars and buses for hours amid freezing temperatures."



For the Howler of the Weekend, we turn to the Pyrenees, the mountain chain between France and Spain, where around one thousand Flemish schoolchildren en route for snow classes and ski lessons in Andorra, got stuck in their buses when a pass was blocked by a snowstorm:





"For about one thousand Flemish students their winter sports vacation in Andorra did not exactly start on a positive note. On 1,000m alt. several Belgian buses were surprised by a snowstorm. The foul weather even caused one of the buses to start swerving on the mountain road and a snow chain broke off. The youths were stuck for hours. To make matters worse, afterwards they got to hear that the mountain pass had been closed off. The beginning of hours of uncertainty. In the meantime the mountain pass is open again."



Cripes Suzette. Last time I checked they had been sitting on those buses for 42 hours. They should have skipped ski classes instead of mathematics classes. 42 hours! And now the poor sods are all guilty of excess CO2 emissions!
