British stabbing, Africa genocide, Senator Crockett?

Britain has a Muslim problem but won’t admit it. There were the rape gangs that were glossed over. There is the awful antisemitism that is politely tolerated. One Brit actually implored Trump to admit British Jews under the refugee program that he is reserving for the Afrikaners. Then there is banning of Israeli soccer fans at a match in Birmingham following the deadly attack on a synagogue in Manchester. Thirty percent of Birmingham’s population is Muslim who held perhaps England’s largest pro Hamas demonstrations. It’s a miracle that the Israeli fans of Maccabi Tel Aviv would travel in the face of such hostility but apparently they will. The member of parliament from Birmingham is a Muslim who won election on a pro-Palestinian platform and launched a petition to ban the Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from coming to the game. He praised the decision to ban them.

British Muslims have been responsible for much of the attacks on the Jews and it is interesting that when eleven people were stabbed on a London bound train that we were never told if the attackers were Muslim. Two men were initially arrested but only one was charged. In no coverage that I read does it state whether the stabber was Muslim. The news reports that he was born in Britain. British Transport Police Superintendent John Loveless said “There is nothing to suggest this is a terrorist incident.” Pardon me John but you are full of it. This is a terrorist act regardless of what we are being told. The stabber is named Antony Williams and his photo looks as if he is black but no word as to whether he is (or isn’t) Muslim. Seems like the knife is the weapon of choice in England. Is there a call for knife control? The banning of blades over a certain length?

Trump says that we are not going to invade Venezuela but we may invade Nigeria. There the Muslim majority is killing the Christian minority. Here is what the president tweeted “If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the U.S.A. will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria and may very well go into that now disgraced country, ‘guns-a-blazing,’ tocompletely wipe out the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians! WARNING: THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT BETTER MOVE FAST!” To date over 52,000 Nigerian Christians have been killed with 17 being killed just after Trump announced possible intervention. The extremist groups Boko Haram and ISWAP are primarily responsible.

But If Trump wants to intervene in Africa he should look no farther than Darfur where Sudan’s Arab led militia is systematically hunting down and killing the region’s black population using Chinese state of the art drones and execution squads. The Wall Street Journal reports that unarmed people are being shot in the streets and that at one hospital 450 people were shot and killed including patients, caregivers and health workers. The militia has been conducting door-to-door searches, and executing non-Arab men and boys. The women are raped and then killed. The deaths are over 200,000 and may exceed the million killed in the Rwandan genocide.

Staying in Africa, the South African government has fired back at Trump for contending that the black government is committing genocide against the white farmers. Recalled when the president met with South African president Cyril Ramaphosa in the White House and displayed pictures showing the genocide of the white farmers? Well it turns out that the photos were from a thousand miles taken by Reuters in war torn Congo (home of some of my ancestors). The video that Trump showed that was supposed to be of burial sites of murdered white farmers recently killed but were actually from a 2000 protest by Afrikaners in which crosses represented farmers killed over multiple years. The South African government says “The claim of a ‘white genocide’ in South Africa is widely discredited and unsupported by reliable evidence.” The government also released a letter from a leading Afrikaner group rejecting the narrative of genocide and murder. To date no word from the White House. Also seemingly forgotten in all this is what about the treatment of the English speaking whites who tend toward commerce and banking rather than farming? Have they been threatened like the Afrikaners? BTW, the English speaking whites look down their noses at the Afrikaners. Recall that they fought a bloody war from 1899 to 1902 for control of South Africa and they still don’t particularly like each other.

I have always said that when it seemed like we were intervening in disputes all around the world but not in Africa and I wondered if the reason was war brides.

Speaking of invading, there are news reports that Trump is planning ground action in Mexico – hopefully with the blessing of the Mexican government. The reports are that ground troops, CIA and drones will target the cartels. A senior White House official said in response to the news that “The Trump administration is committed to utilizing an all-of-government approach to address the threats cartels pose to American citizens.” The plan calls for drone strikes against drug labs in Mexico as well as top cartel leaders. To say that this is an escalation of our efforts against drug trafficking is an understatement.

The Texas gerrymander intended to oust Jasmine Crockett and Al (Full of Fire) Green has prompted Crockett to threaten to run for the senate. The race on the republican side is heated with Attorney General Ken Paxson and Representative Wesley Hunt running against incumbent John Cornyn who has been accused as not being sufficiently MAGA. Paxson is controversial having once been impeached by the Texas House which is controlled by the republicans but then not convicted by the republican controlled senate. Hunt was late into the race and the other candidates have refused to include him in the debates. The democrat contenders are Collin Allred who ran and lost against Ted Cruz and James Tallarico. Crockett has said that she will run if Cornyn loses his primary. Democrat polling has her well ahead of other candidates including also ran Beta O’Rourke and Joaquin Castro. So although republicans have painted her as “not too bright”, “low IQ’, among others, it seems like the democrat voters in Texas think otherwise. So if the republicans continue to beat themselves up and those who backed the losers are sore losers and stay away in the general election, is it possible that we will have a Senator Jasmine Crockett?

  1. Im very interested in America’s interventions—and agree with you that Africa does not get the attention it should..

    I will say about the plan of military intervention, to save the Christians:

    at this point the military does include Christians, Jews, Muslims, atheists, Seventh-Day Adventists, maybe Voodoo believers, first- generation Hindu, all kinds of people sent to save the Christians..

    This cannot be Trump pandering to his Christian Nationalist base. Because the military should NOT REFLECT a STATE SPONSORED RELIGION.
