Anti Muslim Feeling Spreads Through All Levels Of German Society


We look first at the social problems Chancellor Merkel's 'Open Doors' immigration policy is causing in Germany, and further down the page as the political crisis Mrs. Merkel appears to be creating for her government.

Police Crackdown on North African Gangs Sees Arrest of 40 Migrants in Dusseldorf

A huge raid by German federal Police on an area in Düsseldorf known to be a centre of North African criminal gang activity has resulted in the arrest of 40 immigrants, believed to be mostly Muslim, for crimes such as pickpocketing, robbery and drug dealing.

Three-hundred armed state police officers, backed by federal security forces conducted the operation on Saturday evening in the state capital of the North Rhine Westphalia federal state. Their specific target was North African gangs based in a neighnourhood known as ‘Maghreb’ close to the city’s main railway station, which has large North African population among whom Moroccan culture is dominant and Sharia law is regarded as the only law.

A report from the German police criminal intelligence department suggested up to 2,500 Moroccan, Tunisian and Algerian immigrants residing in Düsseldorf have been involved in criminal activities ranging from organised shoplifting and handling stolen property to controlling prostitutes, drug dealing and extortion Holger Münch, the ,Chief of the Federal Criminal Office, told German newspaper Bild am Sonntag:
“Migrants from the Balkans or from North Africa, especially from Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria, draw attention because of their criminal activities. This is much lower in the case of migrants from Syria and Iraq.”
Details of the raids, part of an operation codenamed ‘Casablanca’, were released by North Rhine - Westphalia state authorities yesterday, reports Deutsche Welle. In total 18 cafes, casinos and Shisha bars were raided resulting in the interrogation of 294 suspects.

Out of the 40 arrests, 38 men turned out to be illegal immigrants, one of whom faced extradition to answer criminal charges in his home nation. Charges against the suspects included handling stolen goods — many stolen mobile telephones were found in the raids — as well as controlling prostitutes, pickpocketing and drug dealing.

This is not the first time the ‘Maghreb’ district of Dusseldorf has been raided by the authorities. The same neighbourhood was hit last year, resulting in several arrests.

Police press officers stressed the fact that the raids were planned last year, and were not connected with the migrant sex assaults that took place in Cologne and other cities on New Year’s Eve.


Former Bavarian President: Close the Border to All Migrants


Unconnected with the raid in Dusseldorf but indicative of the feeling in German communities that Hausfrau - Vokfuhrer Merkel and her elitist government appear to think they can ignore,Edmund Stoiber a former President of Bavaria has said Germany should completely close its borders to refugees in order to solve to migrant crisis.

Despite being formally in electoral alliance with Mrs. Mrekel, Stoiber, the elder statesmen of the Bravarian Christian Social Union Party (CSU) and the Chancellor’s traditional coalition partner in government, said Germany had to change direction and gave the Chancellor just two months to solve the problem. Stoiber is well-known for his outspoken conservatism as was regarded as a thorn in Angela Merkel’s side throughout the time he served as Bavarian President.

“Angela Merkel must now change her position, otherwise there will be disastrous consequences for Germany and Europe,” Mr Stoiber said in an interview with Süddeutsche Zeitung.

In what sounded very much like an ultimatum, Stobier said that if Mrs Merkel does change her policy, there will be a confrontation after local elections in March. As we have reported, there is already widespread civil unrest in areas where the German Federal Government has dumped large numbers of recently arrived, undocumented 'refugees and asylum seekers' who speak hardly any German and have no understanding of German culture and customs, though the local authorities lack the infrastructure to deal with the inevitable problems this causes. These problems are replicated in other nations in Europe that have opened their doors to immigrants withouit carrying out background checks. Norway, Sweden and The Netherlands have been similarly affected.

The CSU must make Mrs Merkel’s own CDU party agree with their more hard line policy on border security, Mr Stoiber added, "If necessary, against the opinion of Mrs Merkel." The only solution that will likely make a difference, Mr Stoiber added, was for Germany to completely close its border to refugees for an unspecified period in order both to reduce numbers.

If it does not take radical action, the rest of Europe will see the migrant crisis as a specifically German problem and will never reach an agreement to tackle it.

Mr Stoiber is well-known for his outspoken conservatism as was regarded as a thorn in Angela Merkel’s side while he served as Bavarian President, despite being formally in electoral alliance with her. In 2002, he outmanoeuvred her to become the main centre-right candidate for Chancellor, but narrowly lost the subsequent election.

The FBI Has No Choice But To Indict Hillary Clinton



Potential United states President Hillary Clinton throws a hissy fit about the unfashionable beige curtains - her gay best friend (left) told her they are so last year (Image source)

Former Superior Court Judge Andrew Napolitano has published an article (linked below) which explains the FBI’s investigation of Hillary Clinton and concluded that the FBI has no alternative option than to indict Presidential hopeful Mrs. Clinton for failing to protect National Security during her spell as Secretary Of State. There are two aspects of the investigation. The original source of the investigation is the charge that she failed to safeguard national security secrets.

As the Judge explains, this crime does not require intent and can result from negligence or simply from an incompetent's lack of regard for protocols when dealing with classified material, as in the case that Judge Napolitano provides of the US Navy sailor who was prosecuted for espionage because a “selfie” he sent to his girlfriend revealed a sonar screen in the background. An even more egregious case is that of the US Marine who was prosecuted for using email to alert superiors to the presence of an Al-Quada operative inside a US military compound. The email is considered unsecure and thus the Marine was prosecuted for revealing a secret known only to himself.

In view of these unjustified prosecutions of US military personnel under the law as it still stands, the FBI has no alternative to recommending that Hillary be indicted. The charges may seem trumped up but the concern Ugly Face Hilly's slap dash approach to process and procedure raises concerns about how she would perform as President when people as sharp as vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, Bashar al Assad, Recep Erdogan and Irans Ayatollahs are waiting to take advantage of every screw up.

Whether Hillary will be indicted depends on the Justice Department and the White House. Obama may feel he has done enough to derail Hillary's campaign and with only the buffoon Donald Trump and the communist Bernie Sanders as contenders could justify seeking emergency legislation that would permit him a third term Additionally, it is unlikely that either Wall Street or the military/security complex wants Hillary indicted as both have invested too much money in her presidential campaign, and both interest groups are more powerful than the Justice (sic) Department and the White House. Corporate America would fear a Sanders presidency more than Trump, but he is a loose cannon and so four more years of Obama would probably be preferable to both.

However, Even more people are concerned by Mrs. Clinton's complete lack of suitable experience to fit her for the job of running the country and given the ineptitude displayed during her tenure as Secretary of State they are riht to worry.

Poland: Are New York 'Wall Street Whores’ Working With Eurofascists Against Democracy

by Phil T. Looker

Ratings Agency Standard & Poors (S&P), one of the credit rating agencies that influences Wall Street and the New York Stock Exchange, on Friday 15 January downgraded Poland's sovereign credit rating from A- to BBB+. This is the first change for Poland since 2007 and first downgrade since the country broke free from communist rule. The new rating puts Polish treasury bonds only one grade grade above junk bond status which, if it is imposed would make Polish debt un-investable for a large portion of the global finance community.

To naturally cynical observers the move was not driven by economics but political agendas and stinks of of a politicised corporate collaborating with a corporate political entity, the European Union, which has set out, with the help of Washington and the global financial community to depose the democratically elected government of Poland for having the audacity to assert its sovereignty. The Eurofascists of Brussels desire to punish Poland for rejecting the subservience of the previous, scandal plagued government to the bureaucratic dictatorship that aims to merge all the EU's 28 member states into a single European superstate.

S&P suggests there is a strong probability of a further downgrade if a the reversal of certain policies on such issues as immigration, law and order and domestic civil liberties that do not affect Poland's economic prospects but are out of line with the politically correct consensus of globalists is not expedited.

It is impossible that this move was based of economic analysis because Poland's economic position has not changed since the same rating agency gave the economy a glowing thumbs up in the run up to the election as recently as October 2015. In that election every left wing, pro European integration member was thrown out of the national assembly. Since then the European Union has been working to destroy Poland as they destroyed democracy in Greece when the democratically elected government opposed austerity measures imposed by Brussels that harmed Greek citizens but protected the banks and institutions that held Greek debt.

Austria Suspends Schengen, Imposes Border Control Amid Refugee Crisis

The Austrian government has temporarily suspended the Schengen border-free travel agreement, imposing full border control measures on everyone entering the country, Austrian Chancellor Werner Faymann told the newspaper Oesterreich in an interview.

"Everyone who is coming to us would be carefully checked at the border," Fayman told national newspaper Oesterreich.

Chancellor Faymann said that from now on, Austria would have to impose strict border controls, and follow neighbour and traditional allyGermany" in implementing measures to deport people who have arrived in the country without proper travel documents or refugee identification.

"At border control points everyone has to show a valid ID to Austrian authorities," Faymann said, adding that if the EU cannot impose proper border controls to secure its external borders, member countries should assert their sovereign right and start controlling their own national borders, Osterreich reported.

Austria plans to use military personnel to prevent illegal immigrants from entering the country as a result of several recent incidents in which the immigrants became violent when civilian border control officers asked for identification. Most of the illegals who enter Europe are hoping to reach Germany or Sweden to apply for asylum in what are reputed to be 'soft touch' counties for illegal immigrants. To get to Germany, having come via Turkey and The Balkans, the immigrants have to to hike across Austria. The violence does not stop once they migrants are in Europe of course, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland are all experiencing huge increases in rape and sex crimes since the illegal immigrants started arriving.

This move, following the closure of borders and restoration of border controls by Germany, Norway, Sweden and Denmark, essentially means that the Schengen agreement has been thrown out the window, Hungary and several other member states having closed their borders in 2015. The Schengen zone currently has 26 member nations, including most EU countries and four non-EU states. The UK is not a member.

The idea behind the agreement is that the citizens of Schengen countries can access any country without the need to go through border controls and visitors can travel throughout the Schengen zone with one common visa that applies to each country in the Schengen zone. It was never meant to allow illegal immigrants, fugitives from justice and terrorists to enter Europe without having to provide identification or proof of nationality, this is a recent and completely illegal interpretation introduced by socialist leaders of France, Germany and other nations.

The Demise Of Dollar Hegemony: Russia Breaks Wall Streets's Oil-Price Monopoly

by Phil T Looker



Moscow, Red Square (Image source)

Significant moves in the geopolitical chess game have just rendered the huffing and puffing of warmonger Obama meaningless and will break the hold Wall Street exercises in controlling oil prices, at least in markets that supply a huge part of the world demand for oil. The move is part of Vladimir Putin's long-term strategy of decoupling Russia’s economy and especially its very significant export of oil, from the US dollar, in effect responding to Obama's attempts to provoke Russia into starting a shooting war by attacking American interests in the Caucasus and middle east by waging a currency war designed to depose the US dollar as the global reserve currency.

Late in November 2015 the Russian Energy Ministry announced that it will begin test-trading of a new Russian oil benchmark. So what you might well say. Well this move has huge significance in terms of global economics. If successful, and there is no reason why it won’t be, the Russian crude oil benchmark futures contract traded on Russian exchanges, will price oil in rubles and no longer in US dollars (the petrodollar). It is part of a de-dollarization move that Russia, China, Iran, India and a growing number of other countries have quietly begun (extensively reported below).

This of course makes nonsense of Barack Obama's claim that the US economy is sound and the most powerful in the world. That Russia and China can so audaciously challenge US economic dominance shows their has been an enormous shift in the balance of global power.

Setting an oil benchmark price is the basis of the Wall Street bank's method of controlling world oil prices. The
London financial community uses similar techniques to control currency trading. Oil is the world’s most traded commodity. In dollar terms it props up the US economy and gives US companies an immense advantage over non - American competitors.

At present the price of Russian crude oil is tied to the Brent price. The problem is that the Brent field, along with the UK's other major North Sea oil fields is in major decline while the US West Texas benchmark is based on fields enjoying a temporary resurgence due to the fracking of shale deposits. Thus Wall Street can use a vanishing benchmark to leverage control over vastly larger oil volumes. A quick look at historic price trends will show that Brent Crude is always a higher price than West Texas Intermediate (WTI). This is not solely because Brent tends to be better quality.

The sale of oil denominated in dollars is essential for the support of the US dollar (sic). In turn, maintaining demand for dollars by world central banks for their currency reserves to back the foreign trade of countries like China, Japan or Germany, is essential if the United States dollar is to remain the leading world reserve currency. That status as world’s leading reserve currency is one of two pillars of American hegemony since the end of World War II.

Because all nations have to buy dollars to pay for imports of oil and other commodities, countries such as Russia or China find the USA can influence the health of their economies by manipulating the price of dollar in currency markets. 

That reserve role of the US dollar, since August 1971 when the USA abandoned the gold standard, has essentially allowed the US Government to run seemingly endless budget deficits without having to worry about interest rates, like having a permanent, unlimited overdraft at your bank. Nations need dollars to pay for their imports, he USA simply forces the dollar exchange rate higher.

That has allowed Washington to run up an $18.6 trillion federal debt without major concern. Today the ratio of US government debt to GDP is 111%. In 2001 when George W. Bush took office and before trillions were spent on the Afghan and Iraq “War on Terror,” US debt to GDP was just half, or 55%. The glib expression in Washington is that “debt doesn’t matter,” assumes that the world, Russia, China, Japan, India, Germany–will always buy US debt with their trade surplus dollars. The ability of Washington to hold the lead reserve currency role, a strategic priority for Washington and Wall Street, is vitally tied to how world oil prices are determined.

In the period up until the end of the 1980’s world oil prices were determined largely by real daily supply and demand. It was the province of oil buyers and oil sellers. Then Goldman Sachs decided to buy the small Wall Street commodity brokerage, J. Aron in the 1980’s. They had their eye set on transforming how oil is traded in world markets. Russia has just changed it for them.

It was the creation of “paper oil”, "paper gold", "paper metals" and so on, commodities traded in futures, contracts independent of the production and supply of physical goods, that really sowed the seeds of the economic chaos we find ourselves in. This 'derivatives' market, which has extended to include almost everything from electricity to bundles of collateralised debt obligations' (mortgages), have made it much  easier for the investment banks to manipulate markets based on rumors and derivative market jiggery - pokery.  Oil is of course the biggest by volume and most valuable commodity traded on markets.

A handful of Wall Street banks have dominated oil futures trades for years and were able to do so because their analysts knew just who held what positions, a convenient insider role that is rarely mentioned in polite company. Moving the market from physical oil to paper oil had the effect of transforming oil trading into a  Las Vegas style casino where the odds were stacked in favour of the banks such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JP MorganChase which own the casinos and run the run the tables.

Until the Russians made their move, Wall Street was the oil market just as London was the currency market. Oil trades in the spot markets of London, Paris, Singapore, and the financial centres of Frankfurt, Lagos, Hong Kong etc. were peripharal, made by traders acting as agents of the New York banks.  Now it will be possible to buy and sell both paper and physical oil in Moscow. And while that may or may not be good news for the rest of the world, it could turn out to be catastrophic for the USA.

Is Hillarygate coming? The e - mail scandal keeps getting bigger.

by Arthur Foxake">


hillary Clinton: Wearing her ugly knickers again today.

Things American voters once considered “unthinkable” seem to have become the norm as the campaigns for Republican and Democrat nominee for the Presidential election continue to unravel. Recently broken news of Barack and Hillary Clinton’s plot to promote terrorism should not come as a surprise to anyone. Obama said way back in his 2008 campaign that in his Presidency the USA would support rebellion. Just like that, no qualification, no hedging bets by saying 'we will assess each case on its merits'. He also said justice would be based on the principle that the poorer person in a case was the injured party.

On top of the many allegations that have been made against Obama, in a Drafted Resolution Consisting of 48 Separate Criminal Charges Drafted For Obama’s Impeachment, further evidence is presented that he gave material aid as well as moral support to rebels, wll for rebels read terrorists, ISIS, Al Qaeda, in fact he was helping and supporting declared enemies of the United States. It was obvious to everyone with a teeny bit of legal savvy when the news originally broke that Obama had defied a judge’s order and covered for Clinton's idiotic incompetence (I'm being kind OK) in first being extremely careless in her disregard for security protocols and having confidential mails sent to a private server.

It is significantly important that we fully understand why Obama is covering for Hillary. Informed opinion from Washington insiders suggests you would have to trace the Hillary email and personal server story all the way back to its origins to see who is killing her bit for The White House. It has been reported that within Washington’s inner circles rumour has it that the devastating leaks about Clinton’s server came from none other than Obama's right hand woman (the real Presideent according to some wits,) Valerie Jarrett. That means you KNOW the leaks were done with the full knowledge and approval of Barack Hussein Obama.

Things are not going to plan however. Bernie Sanders, who has challenged strongly in opinion polls on the Democrats nomination race was never supposed to be anything other than a placeholder candidate. She was the anointed one (although it was obvious Obama would stab her in the back and at the last moment put up a complete unknown, probably Reggie Love, as candidate. Bernie's job was to make Hillary look good, look as if being married to an ex President really did qualify someone to be President. He was never supposed to get anywhere near winning, yet now he has a massive lead New Hampshire and according to unofficial reports is nudging ahead in Iowa.

As if that was not enough bad news for hillary, Vice President Joe Biden is now talking about Hillary as unqualified, unprepared, was a disaster as Secretary Of State and how everything is falling apart for her.

The long knives are coming out for Hillary Clinton. And the long knives are coming out for her in many ways just like the long knives are finally coming out for her husband, Bill, who’s now being mentioned in the same sentences with people like Bill Cosby. There are those of us who have been waiting for that to happen since the mid- to late 1990s.

German Feminist Says Authorities Covered Up Muslim Sex Crime For Twenty Years

Police and Authorities Covered Up Problem For 20 Years say prominent German womens' Rights Campaigner.

screen-shot-2016-01-16-at-15-45-40-640x4801
Angela Merkel And Alice Schwarzer fail to see eye to eye on Merkel's policy of ignoring Muslim men's sex crimes for the sake of multiculturalism and diversity.

As the outcry about sex attacks on European women by recently arrived Muslim migrants refuses to die down, a leading German feminist, Alice Schwarzer, has said the politically correct “bubble has burst” and Germans should speak out against Islamic extremism and refusal to respect German and European traditions. She claimed German police have been covering up the rape culture of Muslim males for 20 years, and said that sexual violence was now being used as a weapon of war in Germany.

We have warned in the past that the politically correct, sociopathic idiots who lead western nations have been deliberately importing people whose behaviour, while normal in the third world cesspits these brutes crawl out of, could never be acceptable in western democracies.

By in large, the feminist, who tend to be more concerned with being seen to be politically correct that with genuine womens' equality issues, react to the migrant sex attacks problem either by denying it exists or trying to deflect attention from it by screeching about a fantasy “western rape culture”. Others occasionally blame women victimes for rape, because multiculturalism.

As we reported shortly after the attacks, a local feminists and socialist politicians in Cologne blamed European women for the rapes and accused them of dressing in ways that was bound to incite Muslim men to violence. Some left wingers even held a protest in support of further mass migration, and a British feminist publication tried to justify blaming female victims because the male Muslim attackers were “oppressed”.

Alice Schwarzer (pictured left, next to German Chancellor Angela Merkel), is a veteran “second wave” feminist who rose to prominence before feminism became preoccupied with same sex marriage and excusing Islamic and misogynistic Muslim culture which permits not only rape of Kaffir (impure, i.e. non Muslim) women, but domestic violence, masrital rape, forced marriage and a view of women that condemns them to lives of virtual slavery.

Schwarzer has previously called for a ban on the wearing of the Islamic headscarf in schools or other public settings, and warned of a creeping Islamisation of Europe, which in her opinion would lead to an erosion of human rights, especially women’s rights.

She told German newspaper Die Welt in an interview yesterday that her Cologne based magazine Emma.de has been one of the only voices speaking out for women in Germany over the past 25 years.

“Since then, I have in certain circles been cheerfully reviled as a racist by multicultualists, Leftists and converts to Islam”, she said, explaining that she has faced “enormous intimidation” from left wing Europeans and extreme right wing Muslims for speaking out“Entire books have been published against me to try to shut me up. But in my case, it has not succeeded.”

She also accused German police of covering up the scale of migrant and Muslim rape and sex crime for more that two decades.

“20 years ago, a Cologne police officer said to me: ‘Alice, 70 to 80 percent of all rapes in Cologne go to the account of Turks.’ I was shocked and replied: ‘You absolutely must make it public! Even a Turk is not born as a rapist. There must be causes. What’s going on here? What can we do?’

“But the message was clear: ‘No way, that’s not politically expedient’. And it is this kind of political correctness that conceals the truth of Muslim rape culture” she said.

She also said that there are in fact many people in Germany who, like her, feel, “critical about the importation of so many migrants and refugees in Germany and their failure to integrate”. She said people have not spoken because they “fear the racism accusation”, but after Cologne, “This bubble has now burst”.

Die Hard With A Tribal Mask: 23 Dead After Al-Qaeda Storms West African Hotel



French special forces troops surround the Hotel Splendid in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.

In September last year, in reporting the spread of Islamic extremism in Africa we reported that thanks to the FUKUS axis (France, UK, USA) taking out Libyan strongman Muammar Gadaffi and turning Libya into a failed state with three rival groups claiming to be the government, Al Qaeda and ISIS had been handed a convenient operations base with no local dictator to oppose them, from which they could infiltrate central and southern Africa. Most vulnerable nations were Chad, Mali, Niger (under attack from the south as well, Boko Haram terrorists make regular incursions into its territory) and Burkina Faso (formerly Upper Volta) which does not have a border with Libya but is a target for extremists anyway , because security in these poor African states.seldom extends far beyond the Presidential palace.

The renewed turmoil in the landlocked country which is Africa’s fourth-largest gold producer and which has been torn by civil conflicts since it gained independence from France in 1960. Coup d'etats in 1966, 1970, 1977 and 1983, with changes of political style from the new regimes each time destabilised the country and obstructed progress.

In October of 2014, President Blaise Compaoré, who had ruled as head of a totalitarian regime since 1990, holding power by suppressing opposition, stepped down after nearly three decades as President. On Thursday, October 30 of that year, Compaoré sought to pass legislation that would have paved the way for a new 5-year term.

Here's how WSJ describes what happened next: "That ambition was thwarted by tens of thousands of his compatriots, who swarmed the streets of the capital Ouagadougou. They set fire to the parliament building where the vote had been scheduled to take place, among other government offices. They tore through hotels and shops seen as pro-regime. Up to 30 people were killed in rioting."

Since then anarchy and chaos have ruled, making Burkina Faso a natural target for the Islamic jihad.

A year later later, an abortive attempt by western powers to establish democratic rule by holding free elections was derailed when General Gilbert Diendere (a former chief military adviser for Compaoré) seized power in a military coup. The move coincided with a government committee's decision to disband the presidential guard, an elite group of Compaoré loyalists.

Shortly after that as a result of widespread civil unrest, Diendere stood down and interim president Michel Kafando who had been arrested arrested during the coup, was returned to power. Two months later, Burkina Faso witnessed its first democratic power change in five-and-a-half decades when the country elected Roch Marc Christian Kabore president.

In all that political betrayal and backstabbing rule of law collapsed and the security situation in Burkina Faso descended into chaos as history repeated itself 'first as tragedy then as farce', as the saying goes. Thus Al Queda were able to cross equally lawless and chaotic Niger and into the capital city of Burkina Faso to lay seige to an hotel. It was the second attack on an hotel used by westerners in a West African capital since November 2015.


Al Qaeda terrorists burned cars to prevent security forces approaching the Hotel Splendid

As Al-Qaeda fighters stormed the "Splendid" Hotel in Ouagadougou nearly two dozen people were killed in the initial assault and three gunmen - members of AQIM or, Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb - took some 126 people hostage. The militants also conducted "operations" at the nearby Restaurant Cappuccino where ten bodies were found in the wake of the violence.

A team led by French Special Operations troops forced their way into the Splendid, shot the gunmen, described by Burkina Faso's security minister as "an Arab and three black Africans, and freed the hostages, 33 of whom were injured.

"Clashes ended after a period of sustained gunfire and explosions that appeared to focus on the Restaurant Cappuccino early on Saturday," a witness told Reuters. "The Splendid Hotel is popular with Westerners and French soldiers based in Burkina Faso." One hostage said the attackers were targeting "white people."

A witness report from Edward Bunker, an American health worker was broadcast by the BBC, Bunker told the news crew

The operation was reportedly held up by a series of booby traps. "What's making our job more difficult is that they've rigged the access to the upper floors," a Burkinabe officer, said on Saturday.

We have warned in The Daily Stirrer and our other sites since 2005 that Al Qaeda cannot be dealt with diplomatically, these people are extremists and fanatics and whatever demands they make that western powers concede, will only result in further and more unacceptable demands. We must draw the line now to stop the advance of Islamic extremism.

The Pope Wants You to Pray for a One World Religion



'You will all obey the world religion' - Pope Francis (Image source)

The Marxist, globalist, Soros apparatchik currently posing as head of the Catholic faith wants to scrap the Catholic Church. He didn't say that in so many words but he has called on Catholics to pray for the creation of a world religion (because love and peace) which would embrace Catholicism, the Protestant denominations, Orthodox, Syriac, Armenian, Ethiopian and Coptic Christians, Christian Scientists, Rosicrucians, Theosophists, Freemasons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh Day Adventists, Amish, Latter Day Saints, and presumably Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Jain, Sikh, Shinto, Pagans, Shamanistic Animists, Jedi, Wiccans and Satanists. In other words they guy's a deluded fuckwit.

from Truthstream Media:
The Hegelian dialectic has been defined as “the framework for guiding our thoughts and actions into conflicts that lead us to a predetermined solution”. What we’re seeing now is the thesis + antithesis = synthesis of a centuries-long plot unfold before our eyes — politically, economically, and religiously.

The Pope (or the guy with the pope robe and silly hat everyone is calling the Pope, whichever you prefer) is now openly calling for everyone to pray for a one world religion “because love and peace”. It’s the closest we’ll get to a one world religion commercial, complete with swelling emotional music and claims that this is about peace and love and acceptance and love and peace. They sure do always promise a utopia, don’t they? Reminds us of Jeremiah 6:14, when they say “peace, peace,” when there is no peace…

Funny, while he calls for this open discussion about religions coming together, the comments section of the original YouTube video have been closed.


For the rest of the article and a video CLICK HERE The punchline? The video was put together by the Jesuit global prayer network.

This latest move will come as no surprise to those who have dubbed Frankie, "The New World Order's Pope" because of his support for globalist, anything-but-christian ideology, his contempt for Catholic theology, dictatorial attitude towards the College of Cardinals and his determination to trash traditional Catholic values.

It is very doubtful that Pope Frankie is The Antichrist as some are suggesting, he seems to us to be just another shallow, opportunistic, egomaniacal world domination freak pitching for a global totalitarian government in which he probably has been promised a role.

Unemployment falling? The Great Statistical Con Trick

by Wild Bill Hiccup


Manipulating statistics is not the same as creating jobs Image source

One of the greatest idiocies uttered by President Barack Hussein Obama in his "State Of The Union" speech earlier this week was the president's claim that his administration had turned the economy around and was creating millions of 'new jobs' every year.

The official narrative from the US Labor Department claims the resurgent economy created 292,000 jobs in December alone. This prompted another round of celebrations from the Obama administration and its supporters and a lot of orgasmic screaming and shouting from people who insist Obama should be judged solely by the colour of his skin, regardless of the 'quality of his character', the paucity of his achievements, the overtly racist tone of his speeches, the numerous foreign policy disasters or the failure to address any of the problems that concern the majority of Americans (clue: gay rights are not a priority for most Americans.

In spite of the US economy having created almost 6 million jobs over the last two years according to official figures, more Americans than ever (93 million according to estimates) are out of work. The unemployment rate has fallen much more rapidly than most economists expected, and at 5 percent, is relatively low by historical standards but the published statistics do not define how many of those jobs are part time, how many are bar staff and waiters and how many are zero hours contracts (casual work with a condition that the contracted person cannot take other casual jobs.

While brainwashed Democrats celebrate Obama's huff and puff about the improving economy, most people in the USA still don't have much reason to be happy (don't worry US readers, things are no better in Europe). Real earning are only slightly above pre-2008 levels, and have only risen by around 7 percent in the past fifteen years, while prices have risen more quickly, even according to official inflation figures . Even small gains in real earning recorded by reliable (i.e. non government economic surveys that workers have seen recently result mainly from the collapse in oil prices on world markets. When prices rise, as geopolitical developments suggest they will, those gains will quickly be reversed

Even if we accept official figures as correct, as unemployment has fallen there has been no rise in the rate of nominal wage growth. In fact data actually indicate the rate of growth slowing slightly. Workers are not getting their share of the new prosperity and are certainly recovering back what they lost in the crash.

Other statistics are consistent with a weak labor market. Turnover rates remain low, close to recession levels, suggesting that few workers are confident enough enough to leave a job without another lined up. Also, the typical length of unemployment periods is similar to what we would expect in a recession, as does the number of people working part-time involuntarily.

The disconnect between the low unemployment rate and other measures of labor market strength is explained by the large number of people who have dropped out of the labor market over the last five years. Workers are only counted in the data as being unemployed if they have looked for work in the last month.

"Workers are only counted in the data as being unemployed if they have looked for work in the last month," says the US Labour Dept. in its T&Cs (nobody reads the small print.) Workers are considered employed if they have one hour of work per month, and conversely if they send out resumes from Monster they are considered unemployed. So, the distortions are large and official numbers mean little. Go with your gut feeling on this one.

Many workers have given up looking for work after being unable to find jobs and are no longer counted as being unemployed, instead they are classified as 'not economically active. This causes the unemployment rate to hugely undercount the number of people who would actually like jobs.

Read articles John Williams at Shadowstats.com or go read Paul Craig Roberts to see informed analysis on how manipulated and massaged these government's numbers are. The numbers we see 'corporate puppet' politicians mouthing on TV screens or read in mainstream media are massaged to the max, and are pure propaganda.

So what are we to make of Barack Obama's claims on unemployment? Some reality needed here. When a full time worker retires of quits, replacing them with two part times is not 'creating two new jobs', nor even one new job in fact. Two half jobs equals one job - i.e. the one formerly done by the guy who quit.
It happens in the UK too, I know a young mother who registered as available for work after maternity leave and was offered a two-hours per day position. It's could not possibly provide a living wage, but as far as government statistics are concerned she is 'in work' and thus off the unemployed statistics.
Anyone who believe government statistics is terminally naive.
