The Linguistic Lethargic (and their need for Echo Chambers)

 “We in Britain are entering a dangerous social condition in which the direct expression of opinions that conflict – or merely seem to conflict – with a narrow set of orthodoxies is instantly punished by a band of self-appointed vigilantes. We are being cowed into abject conformity around a dubious set of official doctrines and told to adopt a world view that we cannot examine for fear of being publicly humiliated by the censors. This world view might lead to a new and liberated social order; or it might lead to the social and spiritual destruction of our country. How shall we know, if we are too afraid to discuss it?” …..this statement was written by Roger Scruton who describes himself as a writer and a political philosopher (also once a wine critic for The New Statesman)

I find this statement so very true, there are words which have materialised over the last few years are by their very design are manufactured as a pejorative aimed at not only insulting their target but and also insulting anyone who will read or listen to the target. An example of these words are Islamophobe, Homophobe and Transphobe

Now I have been accused of being all of these ….and then some so I would like to take this opportunity to defend myself and thus perhaps hope for example an induvial may stop whistling “Spring time for Hitler in Germany” if I air my views conversationally when it moment merits i.e. not standing on a soapbox (or perhaps Iron Bru crate as being in Scotland) ….my soap box is my blog, it’s an optional read and if I don’t find the URL to my blog printed on a card displayed in your top pocket like the “little red book” there will not be consequences delivered by a Mao like regime. 

My blog only has a handful and followers which are some faithful charitable friends, a couple of stalkers and some guys with Middle Eastern names which seen to be critics of my posts about Islam …hence I have my “comments” section blocked prior to approval which I very rarely check these days as the creative threats and justice summonses I receive in accordance to a certain book does get tiresome. 

But hey, my blog has been viewed over 30’000 times so it does have some interest or people get lost too easily on an internet search. Viewed in Russia 4000 times and curiously by as “Unknown Region 507 times (could this be Narnia?)  My most popular post was about a dental flossing machine (Waterpiking Oct 2013) with 3000 views so I guess that may say something about my audience. 

Anyway…..if it pleases the court of social justice I would like to present my first defence which is against the accusation of being …..

Islamophobic ……A strange word indeed, when I first wrote if some years ago my spellchecker on the PC did not even recognise it, since then there has been a Microsoft Word update and not its recognised, a bit like the general public who now use it ….so what incorrectly.

A “Phobia” as described by the dictionary is an “irrational fear” ….my fear of the Ideology know as Islam is very rational and I wish the linguistic lazy would stop using this word. To understand my caution to this ideology I will make a comparison to the religion of Christianity (of which I as a critic too but not to the same extent) Christians in a liberal democracy such as is the UK  have accepted that they must obey the secular rule of law; that there must be a separation of church and state. In Islamic doctrine such a separation has not occurred yet. This is what makes it dangerous! Islam. 

The Koran is quite clear that it should control every area of life. If a Muslim chooses to obey only some of the Prophet’s commandments, he is only a partial Muslim. If he is a good Muslim, he will wish to establish Sharia law.

I would like to give an example of my fears, an example which I have not posted about before so I will use Muslim School (as is partly funded by the UK government) In some of these UK schools children as young as six had been taught that western women are ‘white prostitutes’. 

There are textbooks being used in these schools written in. (from the Saudi ministry of education, incidentally) called Jews and Christians ‘apes and pigs!!

One question for anyone who considers this example of being Islamophobic ….It cant be disagreed the children at these Schools learn that Allah is the lawgiver, and that is a political statement.  My question is would you allow the BNP to run a school? 

Homophobe. Please read by previous posts on Islam and if you support Islam (also side with Palestine) and its treatment of gays then you are disgracefully against gays, woman’s rights and the freedom of speech and other western values which we take for granted. I am a straight guy who does not fear getting turned “queer” by a gay guy because it just won’t happen, perhaps it is your fantasy if you are calling me this but I like women and have never deviated from this desire, I don’t see this as a strength or a weakness…..it’s just the way I was born, If I found my son or any of my friends were gay it would not change any of the dynamics at all. I have some gay friends, I don’t go out drinking with them for the same reason I don’t go out drinking with my straight mates, I am just not such a social animal, I do enjoy being in their company when we meet at social events, I find (most) intelligent and articulate, some of my favourite authors are gay men such as Stephen Fry and Douglas Murry.  I consider myself a Humanist and as such I value the ethics which emphasizes us all working for a peaceful and caring society and have no time for dogma or superstition. 

Transphobe… again is Islam my worries of this is not an irrational fear. I can and do accept some people genuinely have been born into the wrong gender and as such these people need and deserve all or help and support especially when you consider in internal torment they must being going through….but these people are extremely rare and it’s the whole current “transgender agenda” that I am against. The life-changing medical intervention for children and teens that is being given without sufficient evidence of its long-term effects and the dismissal of symptom of much deeper underlying mental health issues in attempt to conform with pro-transgendering propaganda swallowed whole some social workers and teachers, parents and the “progressive” left.  One day we will look back at these grotesque medical experiments and shudder.

I have posted before what I think about Trangender woman in sport and I stand by this. Also if you have had some “medical intervention” I will not consider you to be a woman just because you have had your ballsack turned inside out or whatever Frankenstein operation has been done…. Yet soon law will force me to play “lets pretend” with you too.  

There…..I am none of the above but that will still not stop the linguistic lazy and the ignorant from using these pejorative term which are designed to silence all debate and opinions and also gives many of them an opportunity to practice their Virtue-Signaling. 

I have seen before on the social media platform of Facebook that if some people does not agree with your political views ( my stance against Scottish Independence and critique against the SNP being an example) their will rather unfriend you,  often after you question their post or meme.... this is because they lack the intelligence or can't justify what they say and you provide a problem to they... you become a virus to the potential number of brainless "likes" when may accumulate on their posting in their quest for attention seeking and need to feel like a social warrior or their veneer that they have something intelligent to say. They need an echo chamber of their social media platform, brainless nodding sheep followers because they can't answer difficult questions or defend what they post. They can't allow dissent as their narrow minds need to stay on the narrow strut they follow which is the path of least resistance ....a cowardly path which does not enable any inner growth.. a laziness far too common these days.  I know that any self-growth I have had in due to questioning my own beliefs and thought, on more than one occasion I have found I have been wrong for years and its painful to admit and change path but you develop from such a revelation. 

Bravo to people with opposing views to mine who remain friends and will argue the toss with me.... I believe I am right, they believe they are right  (perhaps they are, or maybe I am.....I believe I am with all my force of mind and that's what I continue but I am open to new information)..... and we both have the balls to argue and debate our points. I respect that. 

  

  

Julian Assange (now whistle blowing out of his arse)

Thanks to the Ecuadorians who have finally kicked out of their London embassy that rude guest Julian Assange and what a wonderful sight seeing him on the news getting pulled out of the door and into a police van.

“What happens to whistle blowers” well if they select and choose information which does not put them at perl then they get rich, get famous and make a lot of money from it.... we saw this from the attention seeking Julian Assange and it’s remarkable the faithful following he has attained, a somewhat ignorant following I will add.   

“Hero” really? Strange how he never released state secrets about the Russian government (as Douglas Murray made a point of accusing him of) could it possibly be that Russian has the Federal Security Service (FSB)  which has a reputation of killing the whistle blowers who release such leaks? America and the UK does not hunt down and kill its critics, Assange  must think about self-preservation when he chooses who’s secrets a to release and let other suffer for his "revelations"!!

Now also remember Assange In 2011 signed a deal with the Kremlin-owned television network RT in Moscow!! Who’s secrets does not get released again? Who benefits most from these leaks? The UK? America? ...only the fans of gossip do in both these countries, fiddling like Nero as Rome burns, chuckling about liberal freespeech when it puts their liberty and free-speech all that more in a precarious position by feeing the very enemy for these values.

Assange a “hero” no, the heroes are some of the people he puts at risk in his crusade for personal glory and ego boosts. “Afghan informants will get what’s coming to them” he once said ... that will be the same informants who tell NATO where the Taliban training camps are?  Now these informants names are available to our enemies who wants to bring death and destruction to the civilised world ...informants who will now be dead in a ditch with their family members too thanks to Assange and his  making public “transparency” of intelligence ... do you support a man who in a lesser country would be executed for treason. 

He is not in the position to know the security repercussions of what he released as he is not in the position to know the bigger picture. He is certain a gift to certain foreign intelligence agencies of around he world including some who would certainly take great happiness in seeing our society crumble... “MI6 trying to assassinate Gadaffi, the king of Saudi wanting Israel to bomb Jordan” in a world which treads a tightrope of violence on one side and a fragile peace on the other what qualifies Assange to know better than elected governments to release this information? Does he know better than ours and our allied intelligence services? Or is he being driven my his ego, an ego which needs served by attention and fame. Gadaffi would surely be thankful at the time for the prior warning. yet he has such support, even here on social media casting him as some kinda free speech hero who fights for transparency yet ironically the transparency of all those who funds Wikileaks or who it employees is kept out of the public domain. Perhaps its the people who benefit the most from these "leaks" are the ones who fund it.

I have not even touched or will touch upon the points about him breached his bail in June 2012 and absconded ...guilty of rape or not he still did not intend to face the music as the law dictates but instead left all his friends and family who paid his bail in the lurch and out of pocket (forfeited £293,500 in bail) as he legged it to the Ecuadorian embassy in London and gave messiah like speeches to his sheep from the embassy balcony window. 

Choose your Gender

We are living in a society where we can now identify as any form of victim we choose and liberals say we should be given support, regardless of the realities are. 

Not only this but now in this Brave New World we can we choose our gender from a list of my last count 71 (Facebook in America currently has 50 to choose from) and it’s becoming a prosecutable offence if others don’t pretend with us whatever gender we choose to be ....transgender, polygender, pangender, genderqueer, gender nonconforming, binary, non-binary, androgynous, cisgender ... blah blah blah...even my spell checker on my pc can’t keep up. 

But if you even imply for a second that somebody’s transitioning maybe due to a deeper underlying mental health issues which might be better resolved through counselling which to their detriment they are not receiving due to the currently liberal society’s fever for playing “let’s pretend” then you can be labelled as a “bigot” or “transphobic” or “polygenderpobic” or “agenderphobic” or....well you get the idea!! 

A headline I recently saw in a news article was “Transgender ‘female’ MMA fighter gives female opponent concussion, broken eye socket”  yes... now a guy who would get “bitchslapped” (excuse that expression) fighting another man in the ring (boxing or MMA) can change his name to Michelle Tyson or Coleen McGregor and beat the estrogentic shit out of a woman and not only will this monstrous spectacle be watched by a paying audience they will applaud his...sorry, I mean “her” victory too!!  Opposed to the police coming in and arresting a man beating up on a woman.  Where are the feminist gobshites yelling when a man pretending to be a woman beats up a real woman by ironically exercises these same equal rights once upon a time real feminists fought so hard for? 

I am almost tempted to step back in the ring myself and change my name to Dearne!! I can’t see the female heavyweight scene being that hard to conquer with some plodding wide “child bearing” hipped woman putting on the gloves ....surly a ex-boxer bloke becoming a trans woman heavy weight boxer in the woman’s heavy weight class would be a fast track formula to a championship belt and lots of money before “transitioning back to simple Dearn” to spend it 

... but then again ...perhaps some of these heavy hitters of the past will have the same idea soon and I could end up touching gloved with Veronika Klitschko... now that would not end well for me!!!! 

How the Media Measures Bravery

On Monday (1^st April) is wrote a post titled “Free” Press.  At the start of the post I mentioned about the Senegalese bus driver in Italy who had kidnapped 51 12-year-old kids on his bus then poured petrol down the vehicle’s centre aisle after he forced the three other adults to tie the kids hands together with zip ties He confiscated everyone’s phones but luckly one child kept his hidden and rang his mother, who contacted the police.  My point was how little media coverage this attracted and how if the opposite had happened, i.e. if it was a white, “right-wing”, Italian born man who kidnaps 51  immigrant children, and that this scenario would be headline news everywhere .

Well…..there is one part of this story that is circulating the news especially in Italy as it is what the multi-culturalism advocating powers want..... which is positive propaganda in this case a “good-immigrant” story.  As on the bus  when the children were being tied up, a 13-year-old boy of Egyptian origin called Ramy secretly used his mobile phone to alert his mother  to what was happening. Then his mother alerted the police. The actions of this kid Ramy who was a migrant from Egypt to Italy were indeed brave and noble….he deserves praise, he deserves publicity …..I totally support this, but this is not my point…..my point is about what another kid did on that bus, a story that is not getting the same level of publicity, the reason why which I only can guess is  that this other kid was a native Italian and in a media driven by politics it does not constitute as a “good migrant lefties were right all along” feel good story!!

This other wee kid was called Nicolò, what did he do you ask? .. when the Senegalese born hostage taker shouted along the bus” Who among you will offer themselves as my hostage?”  Most of the bus’s occupants were busy praying, crying, shitting themselves or hiding, all perfectly understandable for 12 year old kids in such a horrendous situation which makes Nicolò actions all that more braver . But in the midst of it all, 12-year-old Nicolò stepped forward and declared “ME” 

Yet this did not feature any coverage by the big television stations or newspapers and was almost shallowed up and completely overshadowed by wee migrant Ramy hiding is mobile and calling mummy. I don’t deny this as bravery for a second but it still does not measure up to the prepared self-sacrifice of wee Nicolo!!!   Oh, and Ramy called his Mum whilst pretending to pray in Arabic...this is a important part the news wants to highlight.

Ramy's dad who immigrated to Itally from Egypt in 2001 told the news how nice it would be if his son now got Italian citizenship for his act if bravery  ....which is deed he got (deserved I think), fast tracked and made very public.

Not sure what the wee lad Nicolò got.   Perhaps a pat on the head?

The Hypocrisy of The Left (and how Matteo Salvini dealt with it)

I have to applaud (or applaudire if my google translator does not lie) the Italian deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini for his actions when giving a speech at a rally in February at the Italian coastal town of Giulianova.  Matteo’s most notably achievement is stopping the migrant boat landing on the Italian coasts. During his speech after arriving on stage to the classic music of Nessun Dorma strutting like a star he addressed the crowd explaining he stopped the migrants landing as the needy in Italy must be put first and foremost. Predictably a (lefty) shouted from the crowd “shitty murder” of course referring to migrants drowning whilst attempting crossing the Mediterranean to Italy. 

Now from experience of seeing how politicians react to such an outburst on the telly we would expect the old response from Matteo…a grovelling excuse and attempted justification attempting to play to both sides …..but no!!! 

This is the part I love….his response!!  He coolly stopped talking, took a pause, turned toward where the outburst came from and in a levelled tone of voice he said “‘a precious contribution from the gentleman who says I am a shitty murderer. A round of applause for the gentleman, he has won ten immigrants for his home”  then Matteo pretended  to sign a form in his hand whilst asking very pleasantly if his “friend” would provide his name and fiscal code number (similar to a national insurance number in the UK) then he would receive his prize of the 10 migrants to be delivered to his door, then ..  ‘who he can look after for breakfast, lunch and supper for’

Matteo then went on to address the crowd. This is the problem with the left, he explained, they always expect other people to pay the bills they run up. This is so true and for a man is such a high political position to acknowledge this publicly and with such an action putting a heckling “progressive lefty SJW” on the spot was simply brilliant and that’s why I applaud this!!

We, in Scotland as with most European nations can remember our leading political figures (in Scotland’s case unfortunately Nicola Sturgeon with her counterparts) standing holding a placard proudly announcing “Refugees Welcomed” yet not one of these hypocrites has taken into their homes a refugee, either a real one (who is fleeing persecution and followed the correct protocol by going to the first save haven of a country and asking for asylum there and attending a refugee centre or camp then being passed to a Euro country as per the quota fulfilment with the rules set out) or a “illegal” refugee coming in on a raft or lorry, or even an economic migrant which most are, (but attempt to pass themselves off as fearing for their lives)

 

 

The same can be said of the vast, and I say that word again….vast (some few admittedly with good intentions) public crowds holding these same “Refuges Welcome” Banners…were they willing to house them in their homes and pay for clothes and food?  Or did they expect others to pay? (if you were one of these protestors with the placards then please leave your address in my comments section and I will forward it to the refugee centre for you to win your prize….opps wait, sorry, you cant, I have my comments on this blog disabled as due to my criticism of a certain “peaceful” religion (mostly followed by the crowd you wish to import wholesale) I get such threats and abuse pointed towards me!!!

Ethical Dilemmas

A scenario is a runaway trolley car, no….let’s call it a un-Americanize it and call it a “Tram” which is much more recognisable in Europe (especial if you live or work in Edinburgh)…….so the scenario …runaway Tram is careening down a track. Five people stand in its path, unaware of the imminent threat. You stand at the intersection of two different tracks and could, if you chose to, divert the trolley onto another track where only one person would be killed. Do you divert the trolley, intentionally killing one to save five?  Will you make the intentional decision to intervene and kill that one people who would otherwise be safe, or let events unfold without intervention and five people die as would be the course if you were not there? Will it make a difference if the 5 people are paedophiles and the other person is a hard working Nobel  Peace prize winning doctor with lots of children to support?  

 

 

This kind of scenario is what is called an ethical dilemma. There are many questions like it …for example.. ” could you kill one infant to save millions of lives?”  This is the “baby Hitler” question, could you commit infanticide to theoretically prevent Hitler’s rise to power? One of the strongest argument for killing baby Hitler is the Holocaust and the theory by removing him from history they this terrible event would never have happened….But then Hitler did not invent fascism, militarism, or anti-Semitism…If someone took his place, filled the vacuum of where the now murdered baby Hitler would have grown up to be but this other person caused even more misery then would it not be so that by you killing baby Hitler, this intervening to remove him from the future your actions cause even more misery….would your actions ultimately have the best actions for the human race? Should you intervene when not knowing who would fill his boots? Now also consider that Hitler’s rise forced many of Europe’s top physicists, chemists, mathematicians and scientists to seek refuge in the United States. Among them were some of the most famous names was a certain Albert Einstein… so it he never went to America if Hitler was murdered by you when he was a baby then Einstein perhaps would not have the research facilities available to him if he stayed in Germany so some of his theories were not released by his mind so mankind may not have been as developed as it is just now, the same with the other scientists, maybe a chemist who’s research was followed up or relied upon by others to make a vaccine which cures thousands of kids .

We can perhaps think of a little more practical example of this (if perhaps controversy to some degree) when we went to war and  Saddam Hussein was defeated in 2003. We hoped it would produce a vibrant liberal democracy in the largely illiberal Middle East. Instead it brought about regional instability, ethnic cleansing, civil war, and ISIS with the death of many innocents.

 

One thing that I do find very interesting with such ethical dilemmas is the theoretical choices liberals appear to made when compared to conservatives (not meaning in the sense of Torries but referring to the more traditionalists and the more self-proclaimed  progressive liberals…SJW type)

The result I read from a research done in America was as follows…..” Half of the participants received a version of the scenario where the agent could choose to sacrifice an individual named “Tyrone Payton” to save 100 members of the New York Philharmonic, and the other half received a version where the agent could choose to sacrifice “Chip Ellsworth III” to save 100 members of the Jazz Orchestra.

When faced with this choice, each individual in the study group showed different reactions based on their political leanings–the liberals were more likely to sacrifice “Chip” to save the Orchestra, while conservatives were more likely to sacrifice “Tyrone” to save the Philharmonic.”

Its also worth knowing that while the study didn’t specifically mention each person’s race, the researchers reasoned that “Tyrone” would be stereotyped as black, while “Chip” considered the same being  would be stereotyped as white. On the saving end, they assumed that the Philharmonic would be thought of as white, while the Harlem Jazz Orchestra would be assumed black.

 

The results of that survey concluded that we actually have two sets of morals… “The idea is not that people are or are not utilitarian; it’s that they will cite being utilitarian when it behooves them. People are aren’t using these principles and then applying them. They arrive at a judgment and seek a principle.”   (a side note here ...I also heard on a Sam Harris podcast that on this survey statistically conservatives are more less likely to place any weight on skin colour than the liberals)

One last point I read  ….”While its horrible to bomb Hiroshima, it was morally acceptable because it shortened the war. We act—and then cite whichever moral system fits best, the relative or the absolute”

 

Untolerated voices against the prevailing orthodoxy

Bernt Herlitz is a Dentist from the Swedish island of Gotland. He was given the task of analyzing the teeth of “unaccompanied children” migrants who started to arrive in Sweden. It turned out that wisdom teeth of the ‘children’ were fully grown in 80 percent of cases, a sign clearly showing that Herlitz’ patients were far from being underage were actually young men. “If you have an X-ray you can easily see that the person is over or under 18 years old. About 80 percent were grown-ups,” he said.

Herlitz shared his concerns with an immigration officer who advised him to file a report about his findings. Yet the reaction from his employers was not so bright – they fired him, arguing he'd “violated medical confidentiality”

The dental hygienist then sued his employers and won damages. But the Region of Gotland appealed to the highest  court in Stockholm and hired one of Sweden’s top-ranking lawyers “to crush” him. He lost his case and also admitted “economically bankrupted him and his family.” The honest and respected dentist, who had worked in the sector for 10 years, was fined some 475,000 kroner (about £60,000).

Experienced psychologist  Dr Kenneth Zucker  headed up CAMH’s Family Gender Identity Clinic for more than 30 years  and  has many times been cited as the leading authority on gender dysphoria in children.  His 40 years’ experience and research had led him to the conclusion that affirming a child’s perceived gender can be counterproductive and believed many urgent and unanswered clinical and theoretical questions – has been “poisoned by politics”, basically ideology before evidence and children were being given treatment both hormonal and surgically to “change” their gender before the physiological aspects has been address fully first.   He was removed from his clinic in Toronto after being accused of ‘transphobia’

I have recently been introduced to a novelist called Milan Kundera who newly celebrated his 90^th birthday.   One of his books has particularly taken my interest, a work of fiction called “The Joke”

Published in 1967, it concerns the fate of a student called Ludvik Jahn, who falls foul of the communist authorities when he makes an inappropriate joke. On a postcard he writes then posts  off to his girlfriend, who is at a Communist party training camp, he writes: ‘Optimism is the opium of the people! A healthy atmosphere stinks of stupidity! Long live Trotsky!’ When this is communicated to party officials back in Prague, he is dismissed from his post at the students’ union and then kicked out of his university.

The point I am trying to make is about the intolerance of “politically incorrect” views and how what now seems to be a totalitarian mindset attempts to cloak itself in the mask of “Progressive Liberalism” and dare I say it? Ironically free speech which if that its only “free speech” if they agree with you but if not then it’s hate and bigotry so watch your back!!!

   The Kundera novel is fiction but the other two examples I provided prior are not!!

Always be wary if the feelings you express are at odds with the prevailing orthodoxy, especially if you voice them, right a report, twitter or facebook them or in Ludvik’s case…write them on a post card for anyone to read during the delivery  period of publicly visible…….or of course …if you write on a BLOG

"Free" Press

You can maybe be excused if you missed the news item last week about an ethnic Senegalese bus driver who had kidnapped 51 12-year-old kids on his bus then poured petrol down the vehicle’s centre aisle after heforced the three other adults to tie the kids hands together with zip ties. He confiscated everyone’s phones but luckly one child kept his hidden and rang his mother, who contacted the police. When the Italian police surrounded the bus, the driver rammed their cars. The police then forced open the bus door and broke a back window to begin to release the children, the immigrant set alight the petrol. The bus went up in flames. The children  just managed narrowly to escape, as the bus burnt to a black shell. The driver was protesting against migrant deaths in the Mediterranean. 

Did you read about this on the news last week? Or see it on the telly? Maybe you did, it was there, just not as headlines, or a huge piece with updates and expert views and interviews every 20 mins or breaking new flashes across the screen!!

But now imagine a different scenario ….. imagine if this was a white, “right-wing”, Italian born man who kidnaps 51  immigrant children to protest AGAINST migration into Europe, has the kids tied up, attempts to burn all the children alive, and very nearly succeeds!!  Would this make headlines on every newspaper? Disrupt your Coronation street with breaking new banners in red?   You better believe it.

So which news stories took up more importance that the near tragedy of the murder of 51 children narrowly getting burn alive by a Islamic Terrorist in a European country? The vandalising of five Birmingham mosques, multiple reports and analysation of Brexit possibilities and a soap star going through a divorce!! 

The importance of news appears to be driven by a certain politically convenience agenda now in the UK which I do find surprising. I could understand how this could happen in Sweden where the news is subsidised by the government and if it were to print something with puts the government policies in bad light, for example the huge increase in migrants raping indigenous Swedish woman proving that multi-culturalism does not work with a misogynistic ideology wholesale imported into Sweden then I could understand that the threat of reducing or withdrawing funding could stop such ungracious headlines seeing daylight….which it has.   

But here in the UK I thought we have a “free” press.  I would like to think that we (The UK) would not be scared reporting such international news such as that time when 2000 Islamic man half of who were migrants teamed up together in 3 German cities in one night (but mainly in Cologne city square) and sexually assaulted 1200 women who were out celebrating New Year’s Eve during the start of 2016 and how this questions the sustainability of Germany's asylum policy and ergo the rest of Europe including the UK. You remember reading about this at the time in the news or seeing it on TV don’t you? Don’t you??

We read much more negatives about Israel and the IDF than what we do about the Palestinians and HAMAS, yet the question of which side uses human shields and which side is deterred by them should answer most of your questions about the morality of the fighting there yet the press will sooner show photos of dead Palestinian children tragically killed in collateral damage but refuse to point out with the same disgust that HAMAS place their rocket launchers on the roofs of schools and hospitals as they fire them towards Israelis civilian population.

Or perhaps the  grooming gangs who have the commonality of following a certain religion  (lets call it what it is "organised Islamic gangs of child Rapists predominantly of Pakistani heritage") which have been operating for more than 10 years predominently (but certainly not inclusively) around Manchester and South Yorkshire, with the victim count (all non-muslim and most white young girls or non-white Sikh girls) almost at ONE MILLION  (yes, 1'000'000 CHILDREN, you read right, this is the extent of the number of victims as now estimated by senior police and research (quietly) done by Parliament!!!  Did we in the past hear much of this in the news? Or do we now?  The answer is NO and the wee drips we now hear are mostly about are the convictions and even then the press (most of them at least) cowardly only describe perputrators as "Asian Men" which should will be an insult of any Chinese or Japanese communities in the UK!!!

The "FREE PRESS" .....not such a thing!!!
