The global May Day events by workers the world over stand for the rights of the people to determine their own destiny as workers or students, it also stands against Corporations and Government standing over working families struggling to make a living. To demonstrate our support for a fair go for Australian workers, some local National-Anarchists decided to mobilise in the Melbourne CBD and join the planned march.

We had discussed our aims and tactics a week or so previous to the date of action and comrades were designated tasks. Our banner was designed and made with the help of a local fabric business and read “People Before Profits,” the people are more than worker bee’s or economic beings, we have an identity and spirit much deeper than our careers or petty consumerism.

Once the day arrived, we met at a designated location with time before the march to discuss in more detail what our “plan of action” would be. The conversation became more casual as we waited for the neo-Communist and Unionist groups to begin their march from Trades Hall. Our main goal was to make a presence representing National-Anarchist ideas in support of struggling working folk, our secondary aim fell in line with the Strategy of Tension; showing the traditional Left that they no longer had a monopoly on their sacred May Day and we have as much a right as they do to march.

Slurs that never happened

USA TODAY ran an article on 4/8/08 headlined “Obama’s grandmother set own trail”.  It shines a light on US Senator Barack Obama’s willingness to lie about his own grandmother using negative language about one panhandling African-American at a bus stop in Hawaii:

Obama and Soetoro-Ng lived with their grandparents Stanley and Madelyn Dunham, and later with their mother, Ann Dunham, in 1970s Honolulu, where white people were routinely the target of discrimination.

Sam Slom, a Bank of Hawaii economist then, who is now a Republican state senator in Hawaii, recalls that as a part of the white — or “haole” — minority in Hawaii, he would regularly see housing ads that made no effort to hide racial preferences. He says he remembers ads that read, “No haoles” or “AJAs (Americans of Japanese ancestry) Only” or “No Japanese.”

“That’s the way it was,” Slom said. “Did people talk about race? We had local jokes … like that ‘pake’ (Chinese) guy or the ‘yobo’ (Korean) who did this or that. I certainly got my share of haole jokes.”

Madelyn Dunham’s views on race came into play in a speech Obama gave March 18 in Philadelphia designed to both denounce and defend his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

In the speech, Obama linked Wright and his grandmother when he said, “I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother — a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed her by on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe.”

Obama’s campaign declined to make Dunham available for interviews or to say whether the Illinois senator alerted her before delivering the speech.

Dunham has repeatedly declined to comment to reporters, and Soetoro-Ng declined to comment on Obama’s speech about Wright or their grandmother’s attitudes on race.

Others who know Dunham were caught off guard by that mention in Obama’s speech.

“I was real surprised that he indicated that,” said Dennis Ching, who was a 23-year-old management trainee under Dunham beginning in 1966. “I never heard her say anything like that. I never heard her say anything negative about anything. And she never swore.”

“I never heard Madelyn say anything disparaging about people of African ancestry or Asian ancestry or anybody’s ancestry,” Slom said.

One of Obama’s two books describes his learning of his grandmother’s allegedly abusive language from his slacker grandfather who confided that alleged information to Obama. But Obama in neither of his books mentions any slurs toward any demographic said in his presence by his grandmother. The article referenced above states that there is no record and no witness to corroborate Obama’s remarks.  One witness even confirms that the grandmother never engaged in hateful speech. So Obama is not just involved in left-wing racialist politics and hate speech (“acting white,” “white resentment”), he appears willing to lie about his own grandmother (“a typical white person”) on that point. In contrast, his former pastor, Rev. Wright, made remarks in his recent PR binge this past week that he would never accept slurs against his own parents—apparently that lesson didn’t stick with Obama.

Haole and beatings

But the second thing to notice in the article is the matter-of-fact way in which the writer (Dan Nakaso) speaks of “haole” as an accepted name for the diverse white Hawaiians even back in the 1960s, and of rampant discrimination against them.

This is a cautionary tale that says, while we wait for the general awakening and the return of the freedoms of association and contract, we must act to resist defamation for our children’s sake, to preserve their right to a decent sense of self-respect. Although it is not mentioned in the article, it is well-known on the West Coast that the last day of school in Hawaii is what we have on May 1 in schools here in California, namely a “beat-up whitey” day. In California it is known in graffiti as “JWD” day, an acronym for “Jump Whitey Day.”

Yes, even though Resisting Defamation is limited to fighting slurs, hate caricatures, negative stereotypes, and white-baiting canards, it appears obvious that a second measure that will need to be taken will be the creation of self-defense voluntary units to protect young diverse white American and European students.  What can the white Hawaiian parents be thinking to allow their children to be targeted for slurs and beatings just because of the color of their skin?

Thursday’s tranche of local authority elections, which comprised about 37% of the country’s council seats, have delivered a withering if hardly unpredicted verdict on Gordon Brown and his exhausted administration.  At 24% of the total of votes cast, Labour is languishing in third place behind the LibDems (25%) and twenty points adrift of David Cameron’s Tories.

In general election terms such dominance could deliver Cameron a parliamentary majority in the range of 150 seats.  Labour will now slowly, but slowly come to terms with its two available choices:-

1. The high-risk strategy of dumping Brown within the next twelve months to give young master Balls time to win the public over, or

2. Running with Brown in the knowledge that the 2010 election cannot be won, while accepting that the zeitgeist has shifted away from them and a lengthy period of self-examination must be entered upon before change is made.  In this event Harriet Harman would shoulder the task of temporary party leader, as Margaret Beckett did after the sudden death of John Smith in 1994.

I think the party will choose the second option, and I will predict now that the run-off for the leadership will be between Ed Balls and John Cruddas, with David Miliband as the kingmaker.

Either way, it will be Cameron in Downing Street.  That is clear.

I think the most interesting thing about the following site is Mark Green’s webcast video interviews, but I’m sure the book is worth a look too:

This is the sort of thing that I believe Osama Bin Laden was referring to when he declared that the West would undergo an “ideological collapse” if it invaded Iraq for Israel.

By David Hamilton

Slowly, and the elites hope imperceptibly, we are being brought under repressive state control operated by not only the police but also bureaucrats.  It goes largely unnoticed because the new laws and regulations seem unconnected, and journalists and opposition politicians are part of the same ruling caste.  But if you look at the new laws and regulations as a trend rather than independent Acts it becomes clear.

“Your papers please” is a phrase associated with Hitler’s Gestapo at a time when people without papers were taken to detention centres.  But it is beginning here. The Daily Mail of 21st March 2007:-

British citizens will be quizzed on up to 200 different pieces of personal information in a 30 minute grilling when they apply for a passport.  Those who fail to convince the bureaucrats they are who they say will be denied a travel document or face a full investigation by anti-fraud experts.  There is no formal appeal process.

Peter Mandelson, the European Trade Commissioner, once said: “We are now entering the post-democratic age.”  To put it more directly: an era of the totalitarian control of people by the state.  Politically, w are in the grip of a narrow ruling elite, an “Ideological Caste” that admits only those into power with the same views, and expels in disgrace any who dissent, as in the public humiliation and sacking of leading scientist Dr.James Watson.

The Ideological Caste is the emergent elite of the Cultural Marxist era.  They do very well out of it … earning vast sums of money, living in the best areas, sending their children to the best schools.  But impose equality on the rest of us.  They claim to be correcting centuries of unfairness.  But they police our thoughts and oppress us if our views different from theirs.

From the Daily Telegraph:-

Los Angeles is becoming a “Third World city” with immigrants making up half its workforce, says a new study. A third of immigrants have not graduated from high school and 60 per cent do not speak English fluently, the Migration Policy Institute [they mean the National Center on Immigrant Integration - Ed] found.

It said this left immigrants ill-equipped to fill California’s fastest-growing occupations, such as computer software engineering and nursing. The organisation added that as the so-called baby boomers reach retirement age, a similar pattern will spread across the US.

Ernesto Cortes Jr, of the Industrial Areas Foundation, a think-tank that specialises on social change, claimed Los Angeles was at a crossroads.

“The question is are we going to be a 21st century city with shared prosperity, or a Third World city with an elite group on top and most on near poverty wages?” he said.

Lynn and Vanhanen already have the answer to that.  But, then, so have we.  It seems that the only people who haven’t are sitting in government offices.

As one of these, the NCII cleaves unquestioningly to the official line.  It’s LA report (pdf) is a typical government document, full of the presumption of men who are not paid to think.  The word gang does not appear in it.  Nor does the word crime.  Nor does the word trust.  There are only challenges.  Lots of them.  As in ..

... Los Angeles is not only on the leading edge due to demographic change, it is also on the leading edge of the many unresolved immigrant integration issues facing our nation and the cities and states where immigrants now reside.  The future vitality of the Los Angeles economy and the body politic depends on immigrants and their children - and on the investments made in integrating them into the mainstream of civic life and the economy.

And there are opportunities, too.  As in ...

As it engages and responds to the opportunities and challenges these trends present, Los Angeles is illuminating the path for other localities and policymakers at all levels of government who are beginning to grapple with the imperative of immigrant integration and the ad hoc nature of most responses so far.

and, my favourite ...

A strategy that builds on demography and catalyzes informed engagement of immigrants and other stakeholders could create the energy and focus needed to address the challenges and opportunities posed by integration issues, and, at the same time, build a vibrant and more cohesive Los Angeles community.

What this report really says in its 74 windy and repetitive pages can be reduced to one sentence ...

The government machine is institutionally incapable of absorbing evidence contrary to its foundational belief in the imminence of the multiracial paradise.

That’s it.  There isn’t any more.

Ironically, the degree to which the collapse of trust and racial balkanisation can be countered is the degree to which LA eventually becomes a Mexican city.  It might be pretty quick - the report states that in 2000, 36% of the LA population was foreign born, but 55% of the children were second generation.

And what will the NCII write about then?

As with the story cited in “New York Times Bid To Make Obama Genuflect More?” and its (end of article) admission that “almost all the jobs lost by men in the 25 to 54 age group have been lost by whites”, it will come as no surprise to my readers here at MR that there is a New TB threat: Global ties bring an ancient disease to Silicon Valley.

However, when the source is the primary newspaper of Silicon Valley, the San Jose Mercury News, we are compelled to inquire:

What’s the agenda?

Is this yet another bid to make Obama, a clear vectorist, genuflect more?  Plausibly except for one thing: 

Vectorism is Holocaustianity‘s central (if unspoken) dogma for gentiles (and sacrificial Jews in diaspora), and the San Jose Mercury News is clearly targeting those outside of Israel.  This seems more than just another ploy for political extortion by the Theocracy.

Is this the harbinger of a fundamental schism within the Western power structure?

The Daily Mail is a ghastly little rag.  It makes its money by throwing tidbits to the apoplectic classes.  Apoplectica - never an attractive demographic, but also never slow on the patriotic uptake - duly responds with much harrumphing and general, if meaningless, indignation.

Master valve open.  Hot air released.  Situation normal.

It’s a curious kind of handcart for the ride to hell.  But since 2001 the Mail has been able to boast among its columnists the doyen of thinking cart-pullers, Peter Hitchens.  It even gave him his own

soapbox.

Hitchens, of course, is famously conflicted with his brother Christopher, the infinitely more successful and recently-Jewish one-time Bilderberger and liberal galáctico.  One can only imagine with what disdain the bibulous god-basher must view his brother’s professional domicile in right-wing populism.  But I’ve a sneaking suspicion that matters took a serious turn for the worse over the cornflakes this morning.

The headline won’t have helped: Was World War Two just as pointless and self-defeating as Iraq, asks Peter Hitchens.
