Frontierist News Roundup 20070126

Some highlights for this week:  The Holocaust Industry gets $115 billion incentive… China surpasses Japan as creditor… China’s antisatellite weapon test successful… US citizens need passport for borders with Canada and Mexico… Altruism center of the brain… New drilling technology may make geothermal energy competitive with nuclear… US attacks international freedom of speech via UN… Moribund H-1b visa hirers start slow recovery… Gated communities and county devolution… Largest housing sales decline in 24 years… WSJ starts supporting prizes as risk management technique… Get Carter… Baby grabbing to meet bureaucratic adoption targets…



“Only one-fifth of the property that was stolen from Europe’s Jews by the Nazis and their collaborators has ever been returned, leaving at least $115 billion in assets still missing, according to a new study.”

Any “new study” about how much in assets is “still missing” that was stolen by the Bolsheviks?



“China is to diversify the use of its swelling foreign exchange reserves, a policy change that is likely to mean a rise in investment in overseas securities and more purchasing of foreign technology and raw materials.”

[...]

“China’s foreign reserves surpassed Japan’s last year to become the world’s largest and reached $1,066bn by the beginning of 2007. They could double within four years if the country’s trade surplus continues to expand and Beijing’s currency policy stays the same.”

[...]

“about 70 per cent of reserves are believed to be held in US dollars, mostly in Treasury bonds, but increasingly in other, higher-yielding instruments.”



“Bush administration officials said that they had been unable to get even the most basic diplomatic response from China after their detection of a successful test to destroy a satellite 10 days ago, and that they were uncertain whether China’s top leaders, including President Hu Jintao, were fully aware of the test or the reaction it would engender.”



“A United States citizen flying home today from a ski jaunt in Canada, a beach break in Mexico or a honeymoon in Jamaica can flash a driver’s license or a birth certificate at airport customs officials and walk on through.”

“Tomorrow, those documents will no longer work.”



“CLARKSTON, Ga., Jan. 20 - Early last summer the mayor of this small town east of Atlanta issued a decree: no more soccer in the town park.”

“"There will be nothing but baseball and football down there as long as I am mayor,” Lee Swaney, a retired owner of a heating and air-conditioning business, told the local paper. “Those fields weren’t made for soccer."”

“In Clarkston, soccer means something different than in most places. As many as half the residents are refugees from war-torn countries around the world. Placed by resettlement agencies in a once mostly white town, they receive 90 days of assistance from the government and then are left to fend for themselves. Soccer is their game.”

“But to many longtime residents, soccer is a sign of unwanted change, as unfamiliar and threatening as the hijabs worn by the Muslim women in town. It’s not football. It’s not baseball. The fields weren’t made for it. Mayor Swaney even has a name for the sort of folks who play the game: the soccer people.”



A lot of hand-wringing over these unwanted foreigners. Not so much for the white population that has to put up with their BS.
“A Muslim woman police officer has sparked a new debate by refusing to shake hands with Britain’s most senior police chief for religious reasons.”

“The incident happened at a passing-out parade where Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair was inspecting a line-up of 200 recruits.”

“In addition to refusing a traditional congratulatory handshake from Sir Ian, the WPC - who wore a traditional Muslim hijab headscarf - also declined to be photographed with him as she did not want the picture used for ‘propaganda purposes’.”

They aren’t defeating us on a battlefield. We’ve been indoctrinated to believe suicide is our only honorable recourse.



“A team of researchers at Duke University published a paper linking the brain’s posterior superior temporal cortex to altruistic behavior. The BBC also picked up the story. If confirmed this has applications in neurology, psychology, child-rearing, and a host of other domains. From the BBC piece: ‘Using brain scans, the US investigators found this region related to a person’s real-life unselfish behaviour. The Duke University Medical Center study on 45 volunteers is published in Nature Neuroscience. The participants were asked to disclose how often they engaged in different helping behaviours, such as doing charity work, and were also asked to play a computer game designed to measure altruism.’”

and my response:

Thus the posterior superior temporal cortex should be the target of many evolutionary arms races [wikipedia.org] seeking to gain or prevent extended phenotypic [wikipedia.org] control of altruistic behavior.



“ A comprehensive new MIT-led study of the potential for geothermal energy within the United States has found that mining the huge amounts of heat that reside as stored thermal energy in the Earth’s hard rock crust could supply a substantial portion of the electricity the United States will need in the future, probably at competitive prices and with minimal environmental impact.”



“As many as 100,000 French and British citizens have converted to Islam over the last decade, according to a new book by an Israeli historian.”



“The United States intends to introduce a United Nations resolution on Tuesday condemning deniers of the Holocaust, a document drafted in response to a conference in Iran last month dominated by delegates who questioned the extermination of six million Jews by the Nazis in World War II.”



“Since OPERATION Iraqi Freedom began in 2003, more than 700 US soldiers have been infected or colonized with Acinetobacter baumannii. A significant number of additional cases have been found in the Canadian and British armed forces, and among wounded Iraqi civilians. The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology has recorded seven deaths caused by the bacteria in US hospitals along the evacuation chain. Four were unlucky civilians who picked up the bug at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, DC, while undergoing treatment for other life-threatening conditions. Another was a 63-year-old woman, also chronically ill, who shared a ward at Landstuhl with infected coalition troops.”

“Behind the scenes, the spread of a pathogen that targets wounded GIs has triggered broad reforms in both combat medical care and the Pentagon’s networks for tracking bacterial threats within the ranks. Interviews with current and former military physicians, recent articles in medical journals, and internal reports reveal that the Department of Defense has been waging a secret war within the larger mission in Iraq and Afghanistan - a war against antibiotic-resistant pathogens.”

This is another vectorist situation, on the order of the South African extreme drug resistant TB and will get its own posting on MR later…



“Russian-Israeli billionaire Arkadi Gaydamak is not the subject of any criminal investigation, an Israel Police official told The Jerusalem Post. The surprising revelation comes nearly eight months after investigators recommended that Gaydamak be charged in connection with his alleged laundering of some $50 million through a Tel Aviv branch of Bank Hapoalim. Gaydamak went on the offensive during the alleged money laundering investigation by publicly accusing Police Investigations and Intelligence chief Yohanan Danino of conducting a personal crusade against him. The revelation that Gaydamak is “clean” seems counter-intuitive to public perceptions of the widely popular, yet shady, businessman. In December 2000, Gaydamak fled France, where he was wanted for illegal gun running, tax evasion, money laundering and corruption allegations.”



“White Atlanta suburbs push for secession”



“Sun Microsystems Inc. returned to solid profitability Tuesday after years of red ink, easily exceeding Wall Street’s tepid expectations thanks to the growing popularity of its corporate computers and its newest operating system for servers.”

“For the three months ended Dec. 31, the server and software maker earned $126 million, or 3 cents per share, up from a net loss of $223 million, or 7 cents per share, in the year-ago period.”

[...]

“The earnings report ends years of losses for Santa Clara-based Sun - one of the highest-flying companies during the 1990s Internet boom. It bled more than $5 billion since 2002, when computer-related spending dried up and lower-cost offerings from competitors encroached on Sun’s turf.”

I think it is more accurate to say that Sun’s *shadow* finally made a quarterly profit, though it hasn’t come close to making back all the money it lost after it led the information industry’s orgy of lobbying to increase H-1b visa hiring.  It was during those layoffs that the Fortune 1000 replaced most of its boomer-era white engineers, you know, the guys who built the information industry, with south Asians that can have children via arranged marriages with subservient wives and and support them with ethnic nepotism.



“For almost 60 years, the evidence of Britain’s clandestine torture programme in postwar Germany has lain hidden in the government’s files. Harrowing photographs of young men who had survived being systematically starved, as well as beaten, deprived of sleep and exposed to extreme cold, were considered too shocking to be seen.”

“As one minister of the day wrote, as few people as possible should be aware that British authorities had treated prisoners “in a manner reminiscent of the German concentration camps"."

“Many other photographs known to have been taken have vanished from the archives, and even this year some government officials were arguing that none should be published.”



“Germans should take more pride in their achievements as a democracy, the head of the country’s largest Jewish organization said Wednesday, calling for a national debate on a positive patriotic expression.”



“White men with a rare Yorkshire surname have been found to be descended from black African ancestors who came to Britain many centuries ago.”

“A study of Caucasian men who share the same English surname has found that they also share a type of Y chromosome that has previously been found only in men living in west Africa.”



“Most believe that the ice ages are the result of subtle changes in Earth’s orbit, known as the Milankovitch cycles. According to one scientist, that is not the case. Robert Ehrlich of George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, has developed a model which hypothesizes a dimmer switch inside the sun that causes its brightness to rise and fall on timescales of around 100,000 or 41,000 years, exactly the same period as between ice ages on Earth. The main problem with Milankovitch cycles is that they can’t explain how the ice ages go from 100,000 year cycle to 41,000 year cycle. The cycles predicted by Ehlrich’s model line up with the observations.”



“Urban Fragmentation and Gated Counties”

“First the rich and middle class lived downtown. Then they moved to the suburbs when the poor and criminal elements moved in. This has been a pattern all over the world and especially in the United States. Gated communities are nothing new and in fact, many such as John Robb have discussed how security will filter down to such basic levels where those who can, pay for extra security and wall themselves off from other areas whereas everyone else just receives the “minimum coverage"."



“IN THE November 2006 election, the voters demanded congressional ethics reform. And so, the newly appointed chairman of the Senate Rules Committee, Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., is now duly in charge of regulating the ethical behavior of her colleagues. But for many years, Feinstein has been beset by her own ethical conflict of interest, say congressional ethics experts.”

“As chairperson and ranking member of the Military Construction Appropriations subcommittee (MILCON) from 2001 through the end of 2005, Feinstein supervised the appropriation of billions of dollars a year for specific military construction projects. Two defense contractors whose interests were largely controlled by her husband, financier Richard C. Blum, benefited from decisions made by Feinstein as leader of this powerful subcommittee.”



“Chirol has a great post and a healthy discussion going on about the secession of affluent communities in the US and globally. This is yet another sign of the encroachment of pre-Westphalian logic on the modern world. Most people, when they think about globalization, see a one dimensional expansion of interconnectivity across all spheres of human interaction. They shouldn’t. Globalization is a force for the creation of a minimalist platform for economic and communications interconnectivity. It is, frankly, the only thing we all can agree on. In other areas, almost in natural opposition to becoming so closely intertwined, fragmentation/virtualization is taking place.”



“Nineteen Cuban illegal migrants came ashore in the backyard of the home of U.S. Naval Air Station Key West’s commander, officials said.”

“The group of 12 men, five women and two children was discovered Wednesday by an off-duty Defense Department officer who was jogging on U.S. military property, Key West police said.”

The Wall Street Journal’s David Wessel assesses the impact on innovation of the increasing number of prizes, such as the X Prize, that reward solvers of intractable problems. From the column:

‘Prizes prompt a lot of effort, far more than any sponsor could devote itself, but they generally pay only for success. That’s “an important piece of shifting risk from inside the walls of the company and moving it out to the solver community,” says Jill Panetta, InnoCentive’s chief scientific officer. Competitors for the $10 million prize for the space vehicle spent 10 times that amount trying to win it. Contests also are a mechanism to tap scientific knowledge that’s widely dispersed geographically, and not always in obvious places. Since posting its algorithm bounty in October, Netflix has drawn 15,000 entrants from 126 countries. The leading team is from Budapest University of Technology and Economics.’

...and my response:

Fusion energy prize legislation was drafted 15 years ago and submitted to Congress by one of the founders of the US Tokamak program, Robert W. Bussard.  There is good reason to believe this legislative proposal was a precursor to resurgence of interest in technology prize awards later in the 1990s.

More recently, Dr. Bussard gave a talk at Google HQ about his currently favorite fusion technology and it has caused some commotion.

It’s profoundly disturbing that the US is willing to spend a trillion dollars on war in the middle east getting negative results and not willing to devote even one tenth of one percent of that to fusion energy prize legislation that pays for positive results only.

“"The sheer weight of demography will produce a situation where no Frenchman or Dutchman could be elected to parliament without the support of the Muslim minority,” he said Monday in an interview with The Jerusalem Post. “

Look, this is just shear nonsense. It takes just around 60,000 votes to gain a seat in the Dutch parliament. There are, and will always be, millions of ethnic Dutch voters. An anti-Islam party got 9 seats (out of 150) last election. No matter what increase Muslims will make demographically speaking such a feat could always be repeated. This kind of exaggerating makes us only look bad in the eyes of the yet unconverted. Of course, I know that this mister Israeli is not “us”.

I suspect the default Israeli political mindset is US-oriented where such “swing votes” are critical.  This is an explanation, not an excuse for intellectual sloppiness.

It was perhaps nitpicking, but I wanted to make the larger point that scathing those dark scenarios can sometimes backfire. That is not to say that I don’t believe these scenarios can become true, which I do. It presents a dilemma, though, because these kind of predictions can be a potent recruiter. Therefore a fine line should be drawn between a “realistic” scenario and a more “fantastic” one (such as the one made by Mr. Arthur Kemp that all civilizations, including East Asian ones, would collapse immediatly without whites).
I don’t claim to have the final answer, I’m just theorising here.

Also, there is something not quite right with the idea that we can only legitimise our defense against immigration by claiming that extremely dire developments will occur it we won’t. That it is not in our ethinc interests should, ideally, be more than enough.

More on-topic, I would designate the Atalanta secession news to be the most important news here. A very encouraging sign. First it starts with a county, then a city, and finally maybe a state. The recent development concerning Kosovo is a major strike for ethnic seccecionism, so the signs are somewhat encouraging.

I agree with Matthew Don that going forward with calls for, the draughting of realistic plans for, and actual movement toward, secession need to be among the primary responses our side mounts to the current official fed policy of forced race-replacement of whites.

Linked in the first item in the News Roundup:

Only one-fifth of the property that was stolen from Europe’s Jews by the Nazis and their collaborators has ever been returned, leaving at least $115 billion in assets still missing, according to a new study.

Many Western European governments paid restitution for only a fraction of the stolen real estate, investments, businesses and household items, while Eastern European countries under Soviet control paid almost nothing at all, according to the study, which was obtained Friday by The Associated Press.

Even the highly publicized campaigns over the past decade for a new wave of compensation barely made a dent in the problem, said the study, compiled by economist Sidney Zabludoff, a former CIA and US Treasury official. Elan Steinberg, a former executive director of World Jewish Congress who helped spearhead the 1990s push for Holocaust restitution, said he was “shocked, but not surprised” by the study’s figures and called for a rapid resolution to the problem for the benefit of destitute, elderly Holocaust survivors.

“This is an extraordinary finding and what makes it most tragic is that despite the efforts at restitution, we have so many Holocaust survivors at the end of their days ... who are not being taken care of,” he said.

Zabludoff’s study showed that before the Holocaust, Jews owned property in Europe that was worth between $10 billion and $15 billion at the time. Most of that was never repaid, translating into a missing $115 billion to $175 billion in current prices, the study said. 

A government report released two years ago estimated material damages to the Jewish people from the Holocaust at $240 billion to $330 billion. That report factored in lost income, as well as unpaid wages from forced Jewish labor, which Zabludoff did not include in his study.

The new study is to appear in the April issue of the Jewish Political Studies Review, a journal published by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs.

Should the Jews be doing this, given the way exact accounts can’t finally be calculated following world wars?  After a certain point the Jews should let this kind of thing drop. 

How much are they getting from Germany and the United States, and have been getting from them since the end of WW II?  Has it reached a trillion yet?  They should be grateful for that and shut up. 

If they don’t shut up they should be investigated for guilt of their own and held liable as a group for monetary damages against other peoples:  how much crime, death, and destruction in the U.S. since 1965 is the result of the largely Jewish-imposed Hart-Celler “It’s Good For The Jews!” Immigration Bill?  How much property destruction, economic dislocation, community destruction, unhappiness inflicted, and so on?  What’s the price on all that and shouldn’t the Jewish groups who’d pushed that bill since the 1920s for all they were worth be held liable? 

What was the Jewish role in the Holodomor?  Good authority has it that it was substantial.  Has world Jewry been assessed for those three to fifteen million deaths (the exact number is under dispute) Jews deliberately caused? 

What about the Bolshevik Revolution carried out by Jews in Russia and financed by Jews in New York?  Is the damage wrought by that vast, epochal cataclysm, the Bolshevik Revolution, even calculable?  It was almost entirely a Jewish national affair. 

It was Jews who ordered and carried out the murder of the Czar, his family, and a few loyal retainers.  What’s the price-tag on that piece of Jewish guilt? 

The Czar was held by the Russian peasants to be divine.  How much penalty is assessed for killing someone who in the eyes of his people was a god?  How much should the Jews be assessed for that crime? 

Did Jews cause WW II by pushing Roosevelt and London to tell the Poles not to back down before Berlin’s warnings to stop anti-German atrocities in former German territories under Polish rule since Versailles?  It is said they did:  because the Poles didn’t back down when warned by Berlin, Hitler felt compelled to occupy the Polish Corridor, touching off the war.  Did Jews cause that? 

If they did, how much in damages should be assessed against the Jews for the result of their behind-the-scenes intrigue — the result being a little thing known as ... World War II? 

How many Negro-on-white crimes in the U.S. are the result of U.S. Jewish agitation against free association in all its forms, preventing whites from having the kinds of communities they had before the ascendancy of Jews began in the 1960s?  What’s the price tag on that, on all that crime and death?  Can the Jewish groups who’ve pushed everything in that direction for the past 45 years be assessed for damages for all that Negro-on-white crime? 

What about the destruction of U.S. cities such as Detroit?  Did Jewish agitation play a role in bringing that about?  What’s all that real estate worth?  Have the Jews gotten a bill? 

Germany suffered genocide after the U.S. victory because of a Jewish-hatched plan to wipe the German race off the face of the earth, the Morgenthau plan in conjunction with its Jewish-hatched counterpart plan in Moscow with which Ilya Ehrenburg was involved.  Who got the bill for that? 

Germany’s factories were all dismantled and taken to Russia as war reparations, a third of the country’s territory was taken away as war reparations, and upwards of five million German POWs and civilians were sent as slave laborers to Stalin who never returned home but perished of starvation, cold, and being worked to death, and all that was done as war reparations.  Is money still owed to the Jews for the war?  What about all those war reparations?  Wasn’t it supposed to come out of those?  Millions of German deportees died in Russia as war reparations.  That had no monetary value?  Why weren’t Jews paid out of that?  Out of the German land taken, factories taken, patents stolen? 

And so on, and so on, and so on. 

If the Jews insist on recuperating every penny, so should the Kulaks, the Germans who suffered genocide as bad as that claimed against the Jews, every American killed, raped, robbed, damaged, or deprived of real estate, community, or other property tangible or intangible as a result of decades of Jewish agitation to stir up the Negroes against the whites in this country, and the list goes on. 

I mean, if it’s an exact accounting of what’s owed to whom, then OK, let’s calculate an exact accounting — one that includes calculations of the debt Jews owe everyone else just to make sure they’re not overpaid when the final balance sheet is tabulated. 

Short of that, I think the Jews should cool it on “what’s still owed to them from WW II.” Nothing is still owed to them.  Not a penny.  That’s how much is still owed to them. 

If the Holocaust is true — which I doubt — they were saved from total annihilation by the Allied Armies.  That service alone, rendered them by the Allies, is repayment enough. 

They want more?  After that, how much more could they be owed?  They were saved from extinction. 

Here‘s a comment I posted at The Civic Platform in the comments thread underneath this log entry about Jews trying to get money out of Latvia (you’d think they’d be embarrassed):

If I understand right, the claim is that: 1) the German government confiscated, without fair compensation, property of Latvian Jews during its occupation of part of the Soviet Union, 2) the property (presumably real estate) passed to the government of the Soviet Union on Germany’s defeat, 3) the Soviet government didn’t compensate the former owners (Do we know why it didn’t? Did they apply for compensation? Did the Soviet government invoke some law absolving it of liability, or was there some kind of settlement the former owners now consider inadequate, or was their claim successfully disputed by the Soviet government in court?, etc., etc.), 4) the property passed to the Latvian government on the Soviet Union’s dissolution and Latvia’s independence, 5) the Latvian government declines to return the property to the former owners or their heirs, 6) therefore the former owners or their heirs are owed compensation from the Latvian government.

You’d think this entire question would’ve been settled decades ago while Latvia was under the Soviet Union. There must not be statutes of limitation.

Hasn’t Germany paid war reparations to the Soviet Union and shouldn’t the Soviet government have paid compensation to these Jewish Latvians out of the proceeds of that? What happened, did the Soviets keep it all without paying any compensation to private individuals with claims outstanding for property taken by the Germans, property that reverted to the Soviet government? Weren’t German war reparations payments supposed to go in part to settle those sorts of accounts and debt claims incurred during wartime? Didn’t Moscow set up an office to handle such claims during the 40s, 50s, and 60s? Why is it coming out now, in 2006?

Weren’t a total of several million German Army POWs and ethnic German civilians from the places earmarked for anti-German ethnic cleansing (all of Prussia’s easternmost lands, Siebenburgen, the Banat, Buchenland, the Baltic Germans, etc.) rounded up after the war, millions of them, and illegally sent to the Soviet Union for forced labor, men, women, children, old people, until they dropped dead of hunger, cold, exhaustion, and disease? Didn’t that happen to millions of innocent Germans and wasn’t that intended as war reparations?

If so, did the years of forced labor extracted from those POWs and civilians before they all dropped dead have a monetary value, and why weren’t these Latvian Jews paid out of that?

Now, aside from decades of 1) straight cash payments by Germany in war reparations — payments to the Soviet Union, to Israel, and elsewhere, and aside from 2) the cash equivalent of the forced labor of the millions of POWs and civilians sent illegally to Stalin to be worked to death, didn’t the Allies also 3) dismantle all of Germany’s factories and transport them, lock, stock, and barrel, to the Soviet Union, and 4) confiscate all Germany’s patent rights worth trillions, and wasn’t all of that done to Germany as war reparations?

How is it that these plaintiffs weren’t compensated before now out of the proceeds of all that, which must have been enormous?

It would certainly seem money taken from Germany ought to have been earmarked for compensation to these plaintiffs and others in their situation.

Was their share of the gazillions 1) paid as straight cash by Germany, and 2) taken out of Germany’s hide in various other ways, stolen? If it was, how is Latvia now liable?

I mean, one would presume that Soviet property dating from the 1945 victory, property which devolved upon Latvia in 1991 or whenever Latvia’s independence was, would already have been paid for, or be in the process of being paid for, or already long since judged to have no debt still owing. How is it, exactly, that the ownership status of this property was not yet settled at the time it reverted to Riga some fifteen years ago?

While we’re on the subject, can the heirs of the twelve million Prussian Germans who were illegally dispossessed of their homes and of all the property they couldn’t carry in a suitcase without compensation after the war’s end (and three million murdered into the bargain) obtain compensation now from Poland, Lithuania, Russia, the U.S.A., and the U.K.?

Who’s to pay compensation for civilian Prussian property destroyed in the Red Army invasion and for the war crimes and atrocities committed in the course of it, and for that property which was stolen after the war was over? If that outstanding debt was cancelled as war reparations, why didn’t what was owing to these Latvian plaintiffs come out of whoever would have normally been liable for that debt to Prussia?

Who’s to pay for the one-third of Germany that was stolen and given to Poland, Russia, and Lithuania? Wasn’t the confiscation of that land, totaling the size of, what — six Belgiums? something like that — wasn’t the confiscation of that land justified, in part, as war reparations to be taken out of Germany’s hide? I think it was (the rest of its “justification” being Hans Morgenthau’s genocide project). How much is a piece of Germany the size of six Belgiums worth on the market? You can’t even calculate it. How is it that in 60 years the amount owed these plaintiffs still hasn’t been paid out of the proceeds of the third of the physical nation of Germany that was confiscated in 1945?

In view of the above and lots more questions I have, I get the feeling there’s something strange going on.
The other thing is, why did these Latvian lawmakers abstain? Why didn’t they all show up and vote yea or nay? What were the ones who abstained afraid of? Jewish power? Afraid of other Latvians calling them Nazis? What’s going on? There are tons more questions to be asked, of course.

Two generations after the war’s end and the Jews are still demanding money?  Shame on them.  They come across as nothing so much as grasping shakedown artists.  Enough already!  The world has had enough of this!
