    Little Napoleon and The Burning Bush… 


    That Le Muppet has delusions of Napoleonic grandeur is a view hardly unique to this blog.

    ……

    napoleon

    British Prime Minister Boris Johnson criticized the decision, after Chancellor Angela Merkel’s office did the same in Berlin.    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-g7-summit-mercosur/britain-joins-germany-in-criticizing-macrons-mercosur-threat-

    ….

    Wow!

    Leave Bojo out of it for now.

    macron-merkel

    …..

    When even Le Muppet’s pro-crimmigrant comrade Mama Stasi Merkel disavows Le Muppet’s latest and most abrasive petulant hissy-fit, a single-handed veto of a major trading deal between the Brussels Empire and Latin America, methinks the Elysee Eejit may have bitten off more than he can chew.

    I have nothing to say about the Mercosur pact, though who knows that I might some other day.

    But I do have to contemplate changing Macron’s blog nick-name from Le Muppet to Le Meddler.

    .

    meddling

    ..

    Again, the forest blazes in Brazil are a matter for another day, and more importantly a matter for Brazil!

    The Euro-Commissars have the same rights I have to make observations in their personal capacities on any issue…

    evilempire

    ….but they have no more right than I have, to dictate how another nation’s problems should be tackled.

    Threatening diplomatic or commercial sanctions against Brazil is plain proof of the EUSSR’s calculating and hypocritical double-standards.

    If the EUSSR can get uptight about a bunch of bush-fires on another continent…

    ….

    Tibetan+exile+Janphel+Yeshi+runs+as+he+is+engulfed+in+flames+after+he+set+himself+on+fire+during+a+protest+in+New+Delhi

    …then one has to wonder why no serious steps were ever taken in response to much more tragic burnings, in Tibet.

    After all, the forests are in Brazil.

    Tibet_map

    Tibet is under Red Chinese rule, but is a proud nation which should be afforded self-determination.

    The ‘European Union’ isn’t interested in that.

    Nor really in democracy at all. Commercial contracts with the Reds come first.

    That brings us back to Le Meddler.

    macron bankerUntitled-23A

    While Mama Stasi’s bad, she’s not stupid.

    Bringing social mayhem to Germany by her multicult open-door policy was no foolish error but was done deliberately.

    .

    multicult3

    .

    Bringing in South American produce, in contrast, is merely practical economics, daily business, which she sees no point in disrupting.

    Like most of the European elite, she will bleat a bit about Brazil, and she doubtless detests President Bolsonaro…

    JairBolsonaro-Bolsonaro-FPA-28nov2017-FotoSergioLima

     Jair Bolsonaro 

    ….because he represents traditional values,  which elites abhor –  but that’s as far as it goes.

    Le Meddler, obsessed with his vision of himself as Master of Europe, driven by his inner flame of megalomanic wrath, has gone off the deep end.

    I’m sure millions of French patriots share my sincere hope that he sinks.

    Then France might get the leadership that France deserves…

    ….

    …a pro-French President.

      This was a very good read, Ross. I like your blog best when you lash all kinds of targets at one go and you certainly do that with this.
      The Napoleonic complex is valid but you should also have taken note of Macron’s diminutive stature, another similarity.

      I am not French, despite my name, but I have been there many times and enjoyed both long and short stays in Paris and other cities, as recently as last spring.
      Macron was not a popular figure but after the conservative candidate was knocked out of the presidential race by scandal, it was between Macron and Le Pen.
      I have never seen such ferocious media hostility as there was against her. The nearest thing we have seen in Britain was Project Fear and that very nearly worked.
      Now they have had plenty of time to dwell on their choice and the new voters, the young people, are very pro-Marine.
      Macron will lose next time but how much damage can his egomania do before the next election?

    Comrade Corbyn’s Selective Anti-Imperialism 


    ‘Jeremy Corbyn has been throughout his career an opponent of imperialism and a strong critic of Israel and that’s his position,”

    corblenin

    …..

    Or so says some hack named Neil Clark, quoted in RT, who is no doubt surely sincere in believing that, despite any record I can find of Comrade Corbyn condemning Red China’s genocidal imperialism in Tibet.

    ….

    And is there not a fundamental contradiction in Corbyn’s enmity towards Israel, and his refusal, quoted in the same RT article  –

    https://www.rt.com/uk/439028-corbyn-arsenal-boycott-israel/ – about his call to boycott his ‘own’ team Arsenal because they made a deal with the Jewish state’s tourist board!-

    – to grant parity of esteem to Israelis and Palestinians.

    ..

    The whole dispute in that troubled land is due to the sectarian, and very violent, imperialism of the Islamic aggressors who invaded, conquered and held in their grip for centuries not only the Holy Land but also almost all the Byzantine provinces, despite brave efforts by the Crusaders to liberate the conquered areas.

      Professor Shlomo Sands in his books “The invention of the Jewish people”, a best seller in Israel at the time, stated categorically that DNA proves that the Palestinian are the descendent of the Israelites of old. In 1928, the total Jewish population of Palestine was some 83 000. All the others were imported and are converts to Judaism (in fact some 75% are atheists). The Yemenites converted in the 4th Cent. The Sephardi (Berbers from North Africa) converted in the 8th Cent. The Ashkenazi, a Turko Mongol-Finn mixture from the North of the Caucasus, converted in the 9th Cent CE. Their right to the land is the right of conquest, not descent. Who is financing you? Tel Aviv’s Propaganda Dept.?

    Red China’s Cruelty Casts Long Shadow In Copenhagen! 


    Cops lying to parliament, officers stamping on citizens’ constitutional rights?

    A sorry saga of appeasement of a cruel tyranny – in Denmark?

    That’s the truth, according to an inquiry, known as the Tibet Commission, which reported this week. Not just cops but the intelligence agency PETS and the Foreign Ministry were also apparently implicated in the shameful affair.

    But it seems unclear if there will be meaningful punishment meted out to the rotten slugs guilty of pandering to visiting Communist flunkeys.

    ,

    The commission found the right of citizens to free expression was infringed in 2012 and 2013, during visits respectively by former Chinese president Hu Jintao and Yu Zhengsheng, the chairman of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC)

    These representatives of the world’s largest marxist despotism were shielded by police from pro-freedom demonstrators, NOT violent demonstrators, please note, but peaceful protestors, whose aim was to expose the evil done to Tibet by Red Chinese colonialism.

    =

    Tibetan victim of totalitarian cultural genocide

    =

    It’s reported that the commission has found ‘grounds for disciplinary action‘ against two senior officers, Deputy Chief Superintendent Claus Hjelm Olsen and Superintendent Henrik Oryé.

    Both officers were found to have given misleading information to parliament, while the latter also ordered a subordinate to give incorrect information.   https://www.thelocal.dk/20171219/danish-police-gave-illegal-orders-during-chinese-visits-commission

    But what will those sanctions be?

    A slap on the wrist?

    NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

    If such disgraceful misconduct is proven, it should be grounds for termination of their careers…

    I’m sure they’d be given favourable consideration if they apply for jobs as security guards at Red China’s embassy in Copenhagen.

    Double Standards? Indonesian Clerics Ignore Red Imperialism 


    Big headline from one  of the Jakarta English-language newspapers this month.

    ==

    Citing Human Rights Violations, Religious Organizations Call for End to Red China’s Occupation of Tibet


    Gambar terkait

    NOT!

    The real headline, in the Jakarta Globe, was this – 

    Citing Human Rights Violations, Religious Organizations Call for End to Israeli Occupation of Palestine

    http://jakartaglobe.id/news/citing-human-rights-violations-religious-organizations-call-end-israeli-occupation-palestine/

    Sad, truly, to realise that those clerics of all the recognised religions here in Jakarta, could be so selective in their righteous indignation that they urged the international community to take “concrete steps” to end human rights violations against Palestinians…

    …yet failed to speak out on the arguably much worse, and indubitably of longer duration, ‘violations’ perpetrated on the completely innocent people of Tibet.

    UN Double Standards Brightly Held Aloft! Free Tibet! 

    But they were only taking a leaf out of the UN book,after all!

    ===========

    The exercise in double-standards was approved by representatives of organizations of six officially recognized religions in Indonesia, including Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and the Bishops’ Conference of Indonesia (KWI).

    They made a point of saying this was NOT a ‘religious’ issue.

    So how come they did not sign up as individuals, or members of whatever political party they support, rather than as members of religious outfits?

    “We condemn the Israeli occupation in Palestinian territories…

    That bleat was followed a litany of whines, some by the Palestinian ‘Ambassador’ here and some of no clear origin, such as that Palestinian children are reportedly deprived from receiving education because many schools have been destroyed by Israeli forces.

    The Jakarta Globe made no mention of the Israeli children not reportedly but actually deprived from receiving education because they had been murdered by savage Palestinian terrorists.

    2014 kidnapping and murder of Israeli teenagers /

    The media here are fairly despicable in their one-sided approach.

    .Hamas Pigs Gloat Over Baby’s Death! Will TVOne in Jakarta Highlight Their Sin? 

    One would not expect much concern for Israelis from Amnesty International, whose fatuous researcher, Lina Fattom…

    …. apparently ‘highlighted’ ( that’s Jakarta Globe-bias-cr-p for ‘claimed’) that the conflict “is not one of religion, but it is one based on the need for control of resources that uses religion and culture as a way to divide.”

    As I say, fatuous! Marxist jargon!

    But it’s a pity the Protestant representative, Penrad Siagian, joined in with inane complaints that ‘Israel has used forbidden weapons…’

    So how come?

    How come Amnesty isn’t loudly launching a campaign against importing stuff from the brutally colonised country invaded, occupied and terrorised by the Beijing marxist dictatorship?

    More interesting would be to put the same question to the NU, who are actually one of the most ‘moderate’ outfits here.

    =

    =

    Are they concerned with Palestine merely because of the irrelevant fact that most Palestinians are Muslim?

    If so, up to them.

    Rights allegedly taken from their co-religionists are more important than rights ripped from other peoples?

    Okay, up to them.

    But what about the Jakarta Globe?

Your example of the genocide against Tibet is valid, but there are also sixty million or more actual Chinese who have fallen victim to communism.
      There are many Trump supporters who feel the same way you do, but we’d best just soldier on, because he is doing a good job in other things.

      Nuclear weapons in a dictatorship’s hands are a greater real threat to the USA. Many more innocents have been horribly treated by their own government in Pyongyang.

    Another party tonight – yeah, it’s a demanding life-style! – and having just got home, a tad tired, I nevertheless wanted to have a quick glance at the news.

    And what do I see but a rather turgid ‘news’ article in today’s Jakarta Post, about a flap-jawed Christian conference telling governments all over the place what to do about various issues – okay, much the same in the West, and, on a dull day, presumably, the JP hacks needed something to fill up their pages.

    If it turns out to be a reference to Red China, which has been building aggressive military/naval outposts in the waters of other Asian countries, yes, that would be a worthwhile story.
