NY Times Thrilled To Report Saudi Arabia Warns Of Wider War

By William Teach October 29, 2023 – 7:00 am

Like most Progressives, they really want Israel to back off and just suck up that Hamas murdered, raped, tortured, and beheaded Jews. That Hamas took lots of hostage. They want Israel to give Hamas the win, back off, and let Hamas reconstitute

Saudi Arabia Warns U.S.: Israeli Invasion of Gaza Could Be Catastrophic

Saudi officials have firmly warned the United States in recent days that an Israeli ground incursion into the Gaza Strip could be catastrophic for the Middle East.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., a member of the Armed Services Committee, was one of 10 senators who met last weekend with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the kingdom’s de facto ruler, in Riyadh, the Saudi capital.

“The Saudi leadership was hopeful that a ground operation could be avoided for reasons of stability as well as the loss of life,” Blumenthal told The New York Times on Thursday. Saudi officials warned it would be “extremely harmful,” he added.

Senior Saudi officials have delivered even more forceful exhortations to their American counterparts in multiple conversations, raising their concerns that a ground invasion could turn into a disaster for the entire region, according to one Saudi official and a second person with knowledge of the discussions.

Perhaps Saudi officials could help end the murderous terrorist groups, could stop them from attacking Jews, from attempting to destroy Israel

The exchanges came as tensions rippled outward from Gaza. Essentials such as water and fuel are increasingly scarce as Israel bombards and besieges the enclave in response to the Oct. 7 attack on Israel by Hamas, the armed Palestinian group that rules Gaza.

Are they f’ing kidding with this stuff? “Armed Palestinian group’? The US State Department, EU, and UN have designated them a terrorist group.

Oh, and what’s up with the Times and Dem senators listing to MBS? Wasn’t he the bad guy for killing Washington Post reporter Jamal Khashoggi?

Scholars who study Hamas have warned that any attempt to eliminate the group, as Israel has vowed to do, could plant the seeds for more violence and extremism, deepening Palestinian feelings of subjugation under Israeli occupation and control.

The solution is for them to stop attacking Israel and Jews. To release the hostages now and every single one involved in the attack turn themselves in. Or kill themselves. Was the US supposed to restrain itself when attacked by the Japanese? How about the Brits by Germany? No one complained about the Russians going full bore after Germany. All the people complaining about Israel going full bore after Hamas should have thought about this beforehand as they supported Palestinians who are Islamic extremists. If MBS and the Saudis want people, defang Hamas, Hezbollah, and the other Islamist groups.

It’s very easy to say this for the Times and MBS and others, right up till it’s their people being slaughtered.

Could You Survive A Zombie Apocalypse?

By William Teach October 28, 2023 – 3:00 pm

It’s an interesting concept. I read a lot of zombie books. A lot. There a bunch of authors I read now, and have read, that have done some great zombie stuff, be it the walking dead type or something similar. Jake Bible had a great series starting in the NC mountains, and has started doing a new series. TW Brown has one of the best, his Dead series and spinoffs, because he made sure you knew it was horror, killing people, even main characters, off. He’s disappeared, though. I wonder if COVID got him? So many more. J.S. Patrick has a great series. As does Timothy Long. I just read book 7 by KJ Jones, reading another by Mark Tufo, who is a master at this. Have another by Scott M. Baker in the hopper, and Baleigh Higgins just released book 6 in her series, I’ll read those last 2 after reading some scifi.

What makes a good zombie book? It’s the people surviving. Not the zombies. It can’t be a constant fight against zombies. It’s like other survival ones, be it nuclear war, an EMP, etc. This is what drove people nuts with The Walking Dead: what happens with people? Can’t have constant zombies. Drives me crazy that some do not pick up on using bikes to travel. And to use a slingshot to hit something noisy to divert the zombies away. Bob Howard has done some interesting things, like, what happens when rats have no one trying to eradicate them and a huge amount of food? Creepy. Oh, and spiders. Yeah, he made it skin tingling horror. But, could you  survive?

Would YOU survive a zombie apocalypse? Scientists reveal how long it would take a plague to spread through a city – with terrifying results

From The Walking Dead to The Last Of Us, zombie apocalypses have been staple features of science fiction blockbusters for years.

But what would happen if a zombie takeover happened in the real world?

In a new study, researchers at Aalto University set out to answer this question – with terrifying results.

Their simulations suggest that if a single zombie appeared in Helsinki, there would be just seven hours to completely quarantine the capital – or kill the zombies.

Otherwise, zombies would ‘inevitably overrun the country’, the team says.

Seven hours. Population of 631,695. That is frightening. In some books it takes a while, in some it is fast. A lot would depend on the types of zombies. Fast? Slow? How long does it take to turn? Is it just bites, or do scratches cause it? Any transfer of fluid? I’ve read ones where the military fights back and loses. One great one, Zombie War by Nicholas Ryan, reads as a war journalist getting the stories on how the U.S. military fought back and won. Most zombie authors try and make it real, because that is scarier. People hiding their infected relatives, which invariably causes problems. Going out and not being careful. Wearing proper clothing. Makes me crazy when people were shorts and short sleeves when they get infected by being bit.

‘I shouldn’t have found it surprising, but I was surprised at how quickly we have to react to keep our population alive,’ said Professor Pauliina Ilmonen, who led the study.

‘It made me think about moral issues like the rights of individuals versus the rights of a population.’

Should anyone infected be immediately killed? Yes. But, there’s always people who do not think it through. BD Lutz, most definitely a conservative writer, uses the backdrop of an America that split off into Right America and Blue States United, and early on talked about how liberals did not want to kill them because they were living(ish) beings. Most of the politics are just background, wisely, but, can you see liberals doing that? In others they do not want to kill them until they turn, which causes problems.

Would you survive? I know how to. What to wear. What to do. Where to go. How to travel. To shelter and be quiet. But, even the smartest and most knowledgeable can die.

Oh, and technically zombies are alive. Be better to call them the walking dead, infected dead. But, who cares. Zombies. Seven hours is a terrifying timeframe, if they’re correct.

Guy Surrounded By Lots Of People With High Capacity Assault Rifles Wonders Why You Peasants Need One

By William Teach October 28, 2023 – 10:30 am

How many of the people directly protecting Joe Biden carry scary looking rifles? How many of those weapons have high capacity magazines? How many of them are automatic, something illegal for most law abiding American citizens? These are questions none in the Credentialed Media are asking when Joe makes observations, nor of any other high ranking politician

Biden questions ‘who the hell needs’ high capacity assault weapons in wake of Maine shootings

President Joe Biden on Friday night harshly criticized the use of high capacity assault weapons in his first public remarks on gun violence following this week’s shooting in Maine that left at least 18 people dead.

Speaking at a campaign fundraiser in Washington, D.C., Biden asked: “Who the hell needs an assault weapon that can hold, in some cases, up to 100 rounds?”

Without referring to the Lewiston shootings directly, Biden said it was “outrageous what’s happening.”

Why? Why not? It’s built into the Constitution. And if it’s good enough for protecting the POTUS it’s good enough for We The People. Elected and government officials are not meant to live under different rules than the people they serve. And it doesn’t matter if they need or want them. As long as the government is allowed them so are we

In a statement Thursday, Biden urged congressional Republicans to work with Democrats to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, to enact universal background checks, to require safe storage of guns, and to suspend gun manufacturers’ “immunity from liability.”

“This is the very least we owe every American who will now bear the scars — physical and mental — of this latest attack,” Biden said in the statement.

Well, ban all government from carry them and we have a deal. Military members cannot carry them off base on US soil. And no one may carry them while protecting the White House, POTUS, the VP, or any federal agencies. That seems fair.

Safe storage is simply a method to make the guns of private citizens worthless for protection. Universal background checks is to make sure the government knows every single gun citizens own and where they keep them. Removing immunity is a stealth measure to sue gun owners out of business here in the U.S., except for possibly making weapons for government.

Oh, and then, with nothing happening in the US or world, Biden blew out to Delaware for the weekend. Who will be protecting Biden now and for the rest of his life with scary looking rifles with extended magazines and are automatic.

There’s A Global Yout Revolution With Global Boiling Or Something

By William Teach October 28, 2023 – 7:00 am

Strangely, not that many are reducing their own carbon footprints. They’re taking lots of unnecessary fossil fueled trips, using massive amounts of energy for their smartphones and streaming shows, vids, and movies, buying lots of fast fashion, having lots of food delivered via fossil fueled vehicles, and more. Is it really a revolution if they yammer and protest but don’t actually do a thing in their own lives?

Climate change is driving a global youth revolution

The Climate Generation looks like Atlas Sarrafo?lu, a boyish 16-year-old with a shy smile, Nike high tops, and a cardboard sign of accusation: “Your mistakes, our future.” He has it resting next to him by a park bench in Istanbul along the banks of the Bosporus, where growing up he played soccer and listened to rap music.

The sign, in some ways, is the easiest of his protests in his authoritarian-leaning country. Earlier this year, the teen filed a lawsuit against the Turkish government demanding it fulfill the commitment it made, along with most of the world, to lower the amount of heat-trapping gases it sends into the atmosphere.

Maybe a court action, he hoped, would make the grown-ups pay attention. He knew other young people had tried that in their countries.

Do they understand that they are suing to get the government to crack down on their own life choices? To control them and take away their freedom and money?

Jakapita Kandanga, a 26-year-old Namibian climate activist, is also working to respond to the world’s increasingly disrupted weather patterns, from floods and droughts to heat waves and fires. She has felt the impact of these changes. During her childhood, when the rains stopped in rural Namibia, Ms. Kandanga’s father couldn’t sell his cattle – and she couldn’t attend school.

They actually believe this claptrap. That’s what cult indoctrination does.

“I just want that everybody has equal resources to survive the climate crisis,” she says. Everyone should have access to education, she adds: “Everyone should have the tools to survive.”

Yeah, well, life ain’t fair, sweetie. How, exactly do they want to redistribute all the resources? Sounds a lot like Marxism.

Climate change is shaping a mindset revolution.

If the Industrial Revolution rippled across the globe and human consciousness with new definitions of progress, time, responsibility, and work, the climate crisis is redefining those conceptions. In our travels, we met innovators and regenerators, activists and adapters, conservationists and challengers. All of them, in their own ways, are pushing back against the silos in which we’ve understood our world in industry, environment, or geography. They are seizing on a crisis moment to tackle the inequalities and injustices that have long saddled their nations – crafting a new ethos about consumption, “progress,” and what it means to have a good life.

Let’s see them practice what they preach, and I might consider what they’re selling.

NY Times Seems Surprised Lots Of Jew Hating Young Democrat Voters Are Upset With Biden

By William Teach October 28, 2023 – 6:45 am

Again, this is nothing new: young liberals in college have long taken the side of the Palestinians and showed Israel/Jew hatred. That attitude has grown exponentionally over the years, especially with the growth of the Internet and on smartphones

Democrats Splinter Over Israel as the Young, Diverse Left Rages at Biden

The Democratic Party’s yearslong unity behind President Joe Biden is beginning to erode over his steadfast support of Israel in its escalating war with the Palestinians, with a left-leaning coalition of young voters and people of color showing more discontent toward him than at any point since he was elected.

From Capitol Hill to Hollywood, in labor unions and liberal activist groups, and on college campuses and in high school cafeterias, a raw emotional divide over the conflict is convulsing liberal America.

While moderate Democrats and critics on the right have applauded Biden’s backing of Israel, he faces new resistance from an energized faction of his party that views the Palestinian cause as an extension of the racial and social justice movements that dominated American politics in the summer of 2020.

In protests, open letters, staff revolts and walkouts, liberal Democrats are demanding that Biden break with decades long U.S. policy and call for a cease-fire.

The Democrat base has become more and more radicalized this Century and has been willing to listen and follow all the Muslim extremist propaganda. Much like every Good Democrats must be an abortion fanatic, hate guns (even if they own them), and Believe in ‘climate change’, among others, they must also take the side of the Palestinian terrorists and bash Israel and Jews.

The political power of the Israel skeptics within the party is untested, with more than a year remaining until the 2024 presidential election. Their efforts have been fractious and disorganized, and they have little agreement on how much blame to lay at Biden’s feet or whether to punish him in November 2024 if he ignores their pleas.

And yet Biden is already struggling with low Democratic enthusiasm, and it would not take much of a slip in support from voters who backed him in 2020 to throw his reelection bid into question. His margin of victory in key battleground states was just a few thousand votes — hardly enough to spare a significant drop-off from young voters alienated by his loyalty to a right-wing Israeli government they see as hostile to their values.

And that’s the rub: will they refuse to vote for Biden in 2024? Will they get out and vote for other Dems and leave the presidential spot empty or vote someone else? Or stay home? Democrat voters are fanatical, and you can usually anticipate them getting out no matter what. If Hitler ran as a Democrats they’d get out the vote, and that’s not getting too crazy.

Perhaps most concerning for Biden is that in the halls of Congress, the most critical Democratic voices are Black and Hispanic Democrats who helped fuel his 2020 victory. As of Thursday, all 18 House members who had signed onto a resolution calling for an “immediate de-escalation and cease-fire in Israel and occupied Palestine” were people of color.

They are all the most insane, wackadoodle, loony tunes ones, most are members of the Democratic Socialist wing, and many are themselves Muslim extremists, influencing the others.

“We process pain, deprivation and cruelty personally, having either encountered it in our current lives or having had historical connections to it with our ancestors,” said Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman of New Jersey, one of the cease-fire resolution’s co-sponsors. “So we understand that cruelty and war and violence do not have positive outcomes.”

This is the nutbaggery of the social justice movement, where they look at things that mostly happened 50+ years ago, put themselves in the Narrative, and then commiserate with groups who are designated terrorist organizations by the U.S., EU, and UN.

For Democrats in Congress and in liberal groups in Washington, pressure to oppose Biden’s Israel policy is bubbling up from younger, more progressive staff members who have grown up in an environment more doubtful about Israel.

If they do not like it they can resign and go work elsewhere. Anyway, it is a long piece which basically says that these young Democrats, and some older ones, are Jew and Israel haters and support Islamic terrorist groups.

Maine Shooting: Kamala Calls For The “Australian Solution”, Conservative Dem Flips On Banning Assault Weapons

By William Teach October 27, 2023 – 10:30 am

They always tell us what they want. She’s not the first to make this call, and won’t be the last. What it means is mass confiscation of firearms

Australia has no 2nd Amendment. Also, only about one third to one fifth of the guns were turned in. They do not really know the exact percent, because no one told the government before or after. The GOP is missing a good opportunity, as usual, to bring legislation to the floor which would take assault weapons away from all who protect the White House, Congress, federal buildings, other than military bases. Restrict pistols to magazines that hold no more than 10 rounds. It doesn’t have to pass, it has to show that Democrats are not OK with not being protected themselves.

Maine Rep. Jared Golden says hometown mass shooting changed his mind on assault weapons ban

Rep. Jared Golden, a Marine Corps veteran who lives in Lewiston, Maine, said Thursday that in light of the recent mass shooting in his hometown he was changing his view on banning assault-style weapons.

“Humility is called for as accountability is sought by victims of a tragedy such as this one,” Golden said at a news conference alongside other officials.

Arguably the most conservative Democrat in the House, Golden said that “I have opposed efforts to ban deadly weapons of war like the assault rifle used to carry out this crime.”

“The time has come for me to take responsibility for this failure,” he said. “Which is why I now call on the United States Congress to ban assault rifles like the one used by the sick perpetrator of this mass killing.”

So, because some psycho used one, the rest of us must pay the price?

(Breitbart) Robert Card, the person of interest being pursued by law enforcement in Maine following murders in Lewiston, had reported mental health issues and was evaluated by police in July due to concerns of erratic behavior, according to reports.

Card — a member of the U.S. Army Reserves and a firearms instructor described by CNN as a “skilled marksman and outdoorsman” — is the suspect in the massacre that occurred in Lewiston late Wednesday, leaving 18 people killed and more than a dozen injured, according to an update from Maine Gov. Janet Mills (D).

According to reports, Card had a history of mental health issues and had been evaluated by police at the Keller Army Community Hospital at West Point in July after military officials expressed concern about his erratic behavior.

Maine has a yellow flag law

Maine State Police said that Card reported “hearing voices” and threatened to carry out a mass shooting. It’s the kind of warning signs that red and yellow flag laws are meant to intercept.

Jaclyn Schildkraut, executive director of the Regional Gun Violence Research Consortium at the Rockefeller Institute, says policies are only as good as the people behind them.

“So if the policy isn’t being implemented, and it’s not being utilized effectively, that’s a systems failure issue and a human failure issue,” she said.

All those issues with this guy, and no one took the steps to attempt to temporarily pull his guns, and, they had to know he had them. It’s a yellow flag, not red flag, because it takes more steps, but, no one tried. The government system failed, and, because of that, Democrats are looking to disarm Americans.

Climate Cult Super Concerned Mike Johnson Doesn’t Believe In Climate Doom

By William Teach October 27, 2023 – 7:00 am

If the NY Times is so concerned why are they not practicing what they preach and telling all fellow Warmists to do the same?

New House Speaker Champions Fossil Fuels and Dismisses Climate Concerns

Representative Mike Johnson of Louisiana, the newly elected House speaker, has questioned climate science, opposed clean energy and received more campaign contributions from oil and gas companies than from any other industry last year.

Even as other Republican lawmakers increasingly accept the overwhelming scientific consensus that human activity is dangerously heating the planet, the unanimous election of Mr. Johnson on Wednesday suggests that his views may not be out of step with the rest of his party.

Indeed, surveys show that climate science has been politicized in the United States to an extent not experienced in most other countries. A Pew Research Center survey released Tuesday found that a vast majority of Democrats polled — 85 percent — said that climate change is an extremely or very serious problem, while 47 percent of Republicans viewed climate change as not too serious or not a problem at all.

Regardless, Doing Something about the climate crisis (scam) doesn’t belong in the federal Congress. It is not something the Constitution granted them power over. If States want to do something, have at it. And, if these Democrats are so concerned, then why are they not giving up their own use of fossil fuels, to start? How many flights and fossil fueled SUV trips are the Congressional Dems taking on a constant basis?

Mr. Johnson, whose district includes Shreveport, a former oil town that has diversified over the past decade, was first elected to Congress in 2016. A former constitutional lawyer, he does not sit on committees that decide the fate of major energy issues.

But he has consistently voted against dozens of climate bills and amendments, opposing legislation that would require companies to disclose their risks from climate change and bills that would reduce leaks of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from oil and gas wells. He has voted for measures that would cut funding to the Environmental Protection Agency.

At a town hall in 2017, Mr. Johnson said: “The climate is changing, but the question is, is it being caused by natural cycles over the span of the Earth’s history? Or is it changing because we drive S.U.V.s? I don’t believe in the latter. I don’t think that’s the primary driver.”

It isn’t. Hence why the “climate scientists” rarely attempt to provide proof of their assertions. They just expect you to Believe them.

After Representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Democrat of New York, and Senator Ed Markey, Democrat of Massachusetts, unsuccessfully filed “Green New Deal” legislation in 2019 to aggressively cut emissions, move the country toward 100 percent renewable energy and address a host of social issues, Mr. Johnson hit back.

Then the chairman of the Republican Study Committee, Mr. Johnson issued a 13-page paper dubbing the climate plan “A Greedy New Steal.” He called the Democrats’ plan “a thinly veiled attempt to implement the policies that would usher in a new socialist society in America.”

He hit the nail on the head. Why do all the Democrat “solutions” involve more and more government control?
