The Telegraph journalist Benedict Brogan posted a plea today for assistance to New Zealand and New Zealanders in this unhappy time.  He wrote of the need to “show that the historic bonds of family and kinship mean something”, and there aren’t many occasions these days on which such fine and loyal sentiments are heard in the British press.

It is fitting that the tragedy in Christchurch is met with words like that, and I thought it might be apposite to pick some more of them, as they appeared in the thread to Brogan’s piece.  Blood, it seems, is thicker than liquifacted soil.

So it will take two days for us to get any help there. So what?
The devastation I saw on the TV this morning will take a damned sight longer than two days to clear up. If we can send millions in aid to Pakistan, then surely to God we can help the Kiwis.

New Zealand are our brothers and we should have moved out to help them straight away.

I think our country needs to do more to maintain the relationship with the commonwealth to be honest.

I will never think of our kith and kin from New Zealand, Canada, and Australia as being foreigners and I shall never think of Europeans as being anything else.

You may be aware of the forward-looking campaign in SA to raise the subject of the future of South African whites among governments and influential bodies in Europe, and lay the foundation for an alternative to a life of mortal danger and demographic and economic decline under black rule.  If not, you can bring yourself up to speed with the briefing document that is now being sent out with a letter of petition to the selected recipients.

The right of return is being claimed by thirty-three founding petitioners who can trace their descent from five European nations: Netherlands, France Germany, UK, Switzerland.  These are the primary target-countries, but the other EU members will also be included.

A website, jussanguinis.com, has been set up to aid the effort.  MR is one of the endorsers of the campaign, btw, and naturally we wish it success on what will certainly be a long road.  The internationalists who manufactured the rainbow nation as a symbol of the world’s future of “tolerance” and “diversity” do not want to hear the white South African voice.  One is bound to wonder whether they possess the moral constitution to admit the sound of dissent into their utopian thinking.

From the BBC News online:

Eugene Terreblanche killed in South Africa

South African white supremacist leader Eugene Terreblanche has been killed on his farm in the country’s north-west.

Mr Terreblanche, 69, was beaten to death after a dispute over unpaid wages, local media reports said. Two people are said to have been arrested.

Mr Terreblanche, who campaigned for a separate white homeland, came to prominence in the early 1980s.

He became the champion of a tiny minority determined to stop the process that was bringing apartheid to an end.

“Mr Terreblanche’s body was found on the bed with facial and head injuries,” AFP news agency quoted a police spokesman as saying.

The report said he had been killed after a payment dispute with two workers, who have since been charged with his murder.

“He was hacked to death while he was taking a nap,” a family friend in the town of Ventersdorp was quoted as telling Reuters news agency.

The murder comes amid growing anxiety about crime in South Africa and what opposition politicians say are irresponsible and racially inflammatory sentiments from a minority of the ruling ANC party, says the BBC’s Karen Allen in Johannesburg.

By way of a tribute to an indomitable fighter for his people, here is a short extract from an interview he gave one year ago:

Four women and one man, all Norwegians of course, have awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to Barrack Obama from a field of 172 individuals and 33 organisations.  The citation reads “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.”

I must have missed them.  But, apparently, it’s to do with all the fluff about “change” and the “new era of responsibility” mentioned in his inauguration speech (which was written not by him, of course, but by Jon Favreau).  The committee’s announcement said:

“Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given its people hope for a better future.  His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world’s population.”

I’d like to add my own voice to the Mass for Naivety which is “the world’s attention”, amending the committee’s words of wisdom thus:

“Only when the Big Money and the global media barons act together can an empty suit be raised up into a symbol for anything you like, frankly, including whatever people conceive of as progress.  The raising up of the Obamessiah was so successful, it is practically inconceivable that anyone else could be awarded any prize whatsoever.  Norwegians will never be thought of in the same way again.”

The case of Brandon Huntley, a white South African granted asylum by an Immigration Board in Ottawa, has been in the headlines for a couple of days.  The Canadian’s recognition that black violence and South African governmental dereliction can constitute grounds for asylum for fleeing whites has stung both the aforementioned government and the ANC.  The moral poverty of both is evident in their reflexive ascription of racism to the decision.

But some rather more interesting reactions have surfaced elsewhere … here in the Huffington Post, for example, where Western purveyors of the old anti-apartheid rubric are struggling - and failing - to come to terms with the moral superiority of the white South African victim.  Like “sa-Ireland”:

There are brutal murders, hacking up of whites, slaying pets, and terrorizing and raping. The rule of thumb is to whites.
now if a white is not allowed to get a good job, (those in the good jobs were there for a long time , or are expats), if a white is not allowed a FREE education, because the last 3 years of school will not be paid by the government, if a white can not own property without the risk of it being removed forcibly, If a white has to live behind prison bars on our houses, can not own anything valuable as it WILL be forcibly removed, If we live in fear daily, because we own a car, a TV, or another valuable item then what is persecution?
There is a plan when Mandela dies - Whites are threatened daily with it. Our guns were redistributed to the blacks as well. When he dies, they will massacre us. All know about it and there is constant, daily propaganda, on the news, in TV programs, and everywhere, to PROMOTE white hatred. My kids weren’t even allowed to report a black in school for bullying as it was classed as racism.
There was a small group long LONG LONG-ago who did the apartheid. It was over in 1989. Why must we suffer for THEM?

The fact remains, though, that of the 4 million + South African whites well over three-quarters of them have not fled the country, and a substantial number appear to be willing to trade personal security for the benefit of the climate, the beaches, the bars, the upscale metropolitan white lifestyle.  It’s hardly news that in South Africa the racial question still preoccupies everyone, whites included.  But the old divisions among whites are long gone.  Now they are split between optimists who are prepared to keep their head down and take what’s going on one side and, on the other, pessimists like “sa-Ireland”, for whom getting out is only a matter of time, and the realists who will stay but try to create change.

To attain a goal through ideology you need two things: a vision for a better future but also a vision of terrible evil if the alternative to the vision is followed.  An ideology always benefits some elite groups, and the one-world ideology benefits multi-national corporations that get the mineral rights.  The process is very corrupt: Western governments appropriate tax money paid by their citizens and transfer it to elites in the Third World for the mineral rights to go to multi-national corporations; this also frees populations to be brought to the west as cheap labour and our work to be relocated where people live on subsistence wages.

Having encouraged wage-slaves from the Third World they publicly apologise for historical slavery!

There is racial genocide of the South African Boers taking place as I write and the Western media know all about it because they have agents and reporters there, but keep it from the outside world, presumably to allow it to go on.

It follows on from what was done to French Algerians, the Belgians of Congo, and the Portuguese of Angola and Mozambique, and what is happening in Zimbabwe.  All these peoples were violently forced off lands which their ancestors had occupied for centuries. It was done with the encouragement of the US and British governments and made possible by finance taken from their own taxpayers for the purpose.  What is behind this?  It is what is now called Globalisation, which is a euphemism for the attempt to create a New World Order.

I am not yet as convinced as Telegraph journalist Ambrose Evans-Pritchard that the West or, at least, the EU is entering upon some Kali Yuga style end-game of strife, discord, quarrel, and contention.  But his article in today’s Telegraph, titled Greek fighting: the eurozone’s weakest link starts to crack, makes a fair case for it.  It also provides as good an assessment of the situation in Greece as I have yet come across.

I won’t reproduce the whole piece here.  But I will copy the following passage, which concluded it:-

I am a little surpised that the riot phase of this long politico-economic drama known as EMU has kicked off so soon, and that it has done so first in Greece where the post-bubble hangover has barely begun.

The crisis is much further advanced in Spain, which is a year or two ahead of Greece in the crisis cycle.

My old job as Europe correspondent based in Brussels led me to spend a lot of time in cities that struck me as powder kegs - and indeed became powder kegs in the case of Rotterdam following the murder of Pim Fortyn, and Antwerp following the Muslim street riots (both of which I covered as a journalist). Lille, Strasbourg, Marseilles, Amsterdam, Brussels, all seemed inherently unstable, and I do not get the impression that the big cities of Spain and Italy are taking kindly to new immigrants.

The picture is going to get very ugly as Europe slides deeper into recession next year. The IMF expects Spain’s unemployment to reach 15pc. Immigrants are already being paid to leave the country. There will be riots in Spain too (there have been street skirmishes in Barcelona).

Hedge funds, bond vigilantes, and FX traders will be watching closely. In the end, a currency union is no stronger than the political will of the constituent states.

No doubt events will be ugly in Britain as well. My comments are not intended to suggest that British behaviour is better. Far from it. But I am certain that the British people still feel that the authorities who set economic policy are ultimately answerable to Parliament and to the democratic system.

Will the Greeks, the Spanish, the French feel that way about the European Central Bank and the Stability Pact when the chips are really down?

The Telegraph software appears to display only the first twenty of the comments.  There are, apparently, forty-two others on the thread that I cannot get to load on my browser.  However, those twenty are also worth a read.  There are more and more such eye-popping sentiments appearing on newspaper threads.  Dissent is becoming endemic, but it lacks focus ... political form.

What Evans-Pritchard’s piece really tells us is that we are embarking upon if not the revolutionary process exactly then, at the very least, a revolutionary preamble ... a lengthy period of reflection upon what it will really take to destroy the present system.  The “ugliness” to which Evans-Pritchard refers ... the riots, the cynicism, the street politics ... will not do it.  Its all about focus.  Without that, these convulsions will as likely operate as safety valves.

The mainstream media is devoting much front-page coverage to this weekend’s violent leftist/anarchist/student riots in Greece.  At the time of writing the headline on the Guardian website main page reads, Clashes across Greece after police kill teenager.

Thousands of youths armed with stones, batons and firebombs engaged in running battles with riot police, destroying shops, banks and cars in cities across Greece toight in a second night of rioting. The violence, the country’s worst civil disturbances in years, erupted late on Saturday when it emerged that a teenage boy had been killed by police in Exarchia, a district of central Athens long associated with lawlessness and drug abuse. Within hours, the protests had spread to Greece’s northern capital, Thessaloniki, its western port city of Patras and Chania on Crete, as protesters giving vent to a disaffection exacerbated by the economic crisis went on the rampage.

By tonight, several areas, including Athens’ main commercial strip and the streets around its fabled Polytechnic, resembled a battle zone, with glass, rubble and broken mannequins on to the sidewalks. As plumes of smoke filled the capital’s skyline, and shopkeepers rushed to clear up the debris, officials reported that more than 30 people had been injured, including police officers and firefighters and a number of passersby who had got caught up in the chaos. Looting was also rife. Local television stations showed stone-throwing youths erecting barricades in Athens as police responded by firing rounds of tear gas. The rioters in turn sought sanctuary in the grounds of the Polytechnic and Athens University, which traditionally have been off-limits to security forces since the collapse of military rule in 1974.

The chaos deepened today in both Athens and Thessaloniki as thousands of demonstrators marched through the streets shouting anti-government slogans. “Down with the murderers in uniform,” they shouted at the police.

At the foot of the report, the Guardian helpfully provides its readers with a:-

Backstory
Riots are not uncommon in Greece. Self-proclaimed groups of anarchists attack banks, high-end shops and foreign car dealerships. The November 17 parade is a particular flashpoint, when thousands mark the 1974 student uprising at the Polytechnic, an event that led to the collapse of seven years of hated military rule. Few of these attacks, however, cause injuries. Some believe Greece’s anarchist movement has its roots in the resistance to the dictatorship and the left/right divide that the period spawned. A number of anti-globalisation, anti-authoritarian, leftwing groups are also believed to have emerged at that time.

But that isn’t the back story.  It’s a classic piece of burying the bad news - bad for the liberal sensibilities of the mediocracy, that is.  Here is the real back story:-
