“I think of the fall of Jerusalem in 69 A.D., and the fall of Rome, and of the USSR — no civilization falls because of external threats. They fall because of internal corruption, because of failing to be who they say they are.”
It’s no secret to anyone, nor has it been for a very long time now, that the political Left are infatuated with the politics of ethnic divisionism. Despite all their accusations of “divisiveness” aimed at their opponents, it is and has always been they who gain the most by pitting cultures, classes and races against one another.
It has also long been suspected that the Left’s fetish for multiculturalism and mass immigration — even the importation of cultures violently opposed to their own interests — has more to do with keeping assorted socialists and neoliberals in power than with any of the problems those policies are accused of solving. Suspected and met with apoplectic denials.
As increasingly pissed off Brits are finding out, the suspicions were truer than most would have thought possible. Turns out the far-right kooks were right after all. (more…)
This isn’t Pat Condell‘s first appearance here. Most folks already know that he’s one opinionated sonofabitch by any standards. Like him or hate him (and I’ve done both), the man does say what’s on his mind and if his YouTube channel is any indication, he’s got a lot on his melon. But then, what can you expect from a guy whose website starts off with “Hi, I’m Pat Condell. I don’t respect your beliefs and I don’t care if you’re offended. Cheers.”
Well, some folks would prefer that Pat just put a cork in it and would like to stick it in themselves, if at all possible. In case you hadn’t heard, one of his recent rants, a little something called “Welcome to Saudi Britain” got yanked from YouTube:
However YouTube, which is owned by the internet search engine giant Google, has removed the video from its site because of “terms of use violation”.
It had been watched more than 40,000 times in the 24 hours after Condell uploaded it.
YouTube has also threatened to disable his entire account if he commits “additional violations”.
A spokesman for the website said: “YouTube has clear policies that prohibit inappropriate content on the site, such as pornography, gratuitous violence or hate speech. Our community understands the rules and polices the site for inappropriate material. When users feel content is inappropriate they can flag it and our staff then review it as quickly as possible to see if it violates our Terms of Use. If users repeatedly break these rules we disable their accounts.”
Surprise, surprise, the net community and others went apeshit over this kind of censorship. Within hours, copies of the vid were all over OhNoYouDontTube and — surprise, surprise, again — YouTube caved and let the damn thing be. Here’s Pat’s take on the whole kerfuffle:
And, of course, what would this post be without the little rant that started the whole big stink in the first place?
You’d never see this in Canada, but jolly old England actually has a TV broadcaster with the balls to do this sort of thing. First there was Undercover Mosque. Then the predictable stink followed:
Racism!
Islamophobia®!
How dare you catch us in the act of being assholes, and then put it on TV!
Blah, blah, blah, three bags full. When they finally got it through their little medieval skulls that they’d been caught red-handed, nobody gave a damn if they were offended or not, and their faux indignation was only going to piss people off more, they promised that they’d clean up their act.
Fat chance. Now, we have Undercover Mosque: The Return, and it’s all nothing but same shit, different day…
Yesterday, I posted the five YouTube chunks of part one of Ross Kemp in Afghanistan. Several visitors have pointed out to me that there’s a hell of a lot more than just what I put up. So, in the interest of not having my sorry arse nagged right off, here’s the second part of the series (again, in five YouTube chunks).
From time to time, it gets too easy for us to get tied up with what we’re doing in Afghanistan and forget that we aren’t the only ones there…
It’s time, ladies and gentlemen, for one bigass tip of the hat to Fortitudine over at The Canadian Republic for cluing me on to this documentary in the first place in a post from yesterday. According to reports, the Brits have managed to blow the hell out of over 7000 of those Taliban turds since the 16 Air Assault Brigade first showed up in Helmand province in 2006. Not a bad damned record at all, if I do say so myself.
These clips come from a documentary by a fellow named Ross Kemp, who you can see more about here. The YouTube of the first episode has been broken up into 5 parts. Check them out below and enjoy watching our oldest allies at work (CAUTION: strong language)…
