Despite Lockdowns, Jewjabs, Wars and Global Depression, Everything is A-OK
[Phnom Penh, 10/30/23]
Barista is too fancy a word, so I’ll just call her coffee server, or caffeine wallah. Today, this plump and pretty young woman is again wearing her Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck shirt. This cheers me up so much, even my crappy coffee tastes fine. In Vietnam, low end joints mix toasted corn with coffee, so this caffeine wallah must have done the same.
Her zebra pants are also an excellent choice. Of course, the older and uglier you get, the more gorgeous everyone else becomes, so it’s a consolation, of sort, as this or that breaks down.
Yesterday, I spotted a minibus with “Banhra” as its destination. Since it means “broken apart” in Vietnamese, I immediately thought, I must go there!
The Jewish American Dilemma

“In a world that is not conforming to the narrative of continuous Progress, the response from self-declared progressives has been to try to rewrite our past into the multicultural utopia that they wish to see realised. This will not end well. The war on reality cannot be won.” — Luke Dobson
At this moment, when there is an awful struggle over the Hebrews’ place in the world — so dire that you’re waiting for World War Three to vaporize everything you’ve ever cared about — one observes the Jewish American scene with trepidation. Since I am a Jewish American, I’m just going to flop this one on the table like so much meat to see what kind of animals it brings out of the woodwork to fight over it.
The Hamas war has exposed a deep current of animosity against Israel and against Jews generally world-wide, even here. This, you understand, is happening at a time of what we might call epic global political mental illness. A mass formation psychosis appears to grip many population groups, each in its own way, but often expressing itself as a longing for death, ranging from the economic suicide of Western Europe to the rise of Jihad to the desolate nihilism of American nose-ring youth.
There is never going to be another "deadly global pandemic." There have not been any in the past
The Monster has only devised means to produce the illusion of deadly global pandemics. And that's all he will ever be able to do.
Notes on the 2017 addition of "public health emergency" definitions to 42 CFR 70.1.
Incessant prattling of lobbyists for State-sponsored bioterrorism (code name "biodefense") notwithstanding, there hasn't ever been a deadly global pandemic, or a pathogen with the potential to circulate around the whole world and kill millions or billions of people.
So there can't be another one, or a next one, or any other future one for which the lessons of Covid must be learned; new treaties and laws must be drafted, signed and enforced; new surveillance and control programs developed; and billions of preparatory dollars spent.
There was a first theatrical production of the illusion of a deadly global pandemic: the 1918 Spanish flu. And now there has been a second theatrical production of the illusion of a deadly global pandemic: Covid-19.
There are going to be more attempts to produce the same illusion under different titles; the producers routinely announce and demand funding for their road shows. Human men and women are the audience. Individual human minds are the private theaters into which the shows are projected.
Joke City at the End of the World
[Phnom Penh, 11/4/23]
It’s 7AM, and I’m sitting in Cafe Amazon, a Thai chain. I’d rather be at Nil, but it doesn’t have wifi, and I wouldn’t want to hog one of its two tables. Forty hours ago, I arrived in Sihanoukville. With its unfinished highrises, pricey hotels, casinos everywhere and not enough homes, it’s a disaster of a city.
My cappuccino tastes slightly sour, but I won’t complain. Fermented dairy is an antioxidant, I hear. Already this morning, two dogs threatened me. With abandoned construction sites everywhere, there should have been ready chunks of concrete, but I found nothing. With just my face to scare them, I growled. You ain’t more dog than me!
Just over a decade ago, Sihanoukville was a destination for scruffy backpackers, so there were hostels, burger joints, crappy pizzerie and bars with live music, then Hun Sen opened it up to Chinese developers. Flooding in, they tried to transform it into a new Macao. Chinese investors funded this vision, then came the Covid hysteria, so suddenly, there were no Chinese tourists, businessmen, merchants or construction workers. Already priced out of their city, thousands of Cambodians also lost their jobs.
This Is What It Was Like to Be Indifferent to Nazi Genocide

The hypocrisy of the Western media is reflective of the unscrupulous political agenda of their governments.
Looking back at the horrors inflicted by Nazi Germany, a fascinating, disturbing question is: why and how could so many people at that time be indifferent to the crimes? After the defeat of the Nazi fascist regime, people adamantly lamented “never again” would such horror be permitted. Part of the lament was due to a sense of collective guilt that more wasn’t done at the time to stop the systematic mass killings and brutality.
Well, up to a point, it is happening again in Gaza where 2.3 million have been subjected to three weeks of constant, indiscriminate bombardment amid a total blockade of water, food and other basic human necessities.
And, shamefully, incredibly, the world is letting it happen – again. This time, we don’t have the mitigatory excuse of ignorance and lack of information from antiquated communication systems. The mass murder in Gaza is on prime-time television. The United Nations Security Council is seemingly at an impasse to muster a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire and the urgent dispatch of aid trucks into the Gaza Strip. Three weeks of massacring a civilian population trapped in a coastal area – described as the world’s biggest open-air concentration camp – have been permitted to continue while the UN Security Council wrangles over diplomatic resolutions.
Diabolical Double-Think…Washington Touts Israeli Genocide of Palestinians as Self-Defense
Strategic Culture Foundation Editorial
Can Western leaders show a modicum of moral fiber?
In blatant defiance of world opinion and international law, the Israeli state continues its daily massacre of civilians in Gaza.
After nearly four weeks of non-stop aerial bombardment, the death toll has exceeded 9,000, with thousands more missing under rubble. The actual death toll as of this writing could be near 15,000.
The United Nations organization UNICEF this week described Gaza as a “graveyard for children”. An estimated 400 children are killed or wounded every day. The wounded have no way of being treated as hospitals shut down from lack of fuel and supplies.
In heartrending scenes, families are desperately trying to dig up children buried under concrete debris. All too often, their cries fade with agonizing death.
The world is witnessing an age of cruel depravity that is on par with the barbarity of Nazi Germany.
I Have Lost Nine Family Members in Gaza: Stop the Death March Now
Yousef Aljamal
On Sunday, October 15, Israeli warplanes targeted a residential building in Al-Nuseirat refugee camp where dozens of my family members live, killing nine of them. Among the victims were my father’s cousin Azmi Aljamal, 63, a retired nurse, his wife Hanan, 60, and their children Mustafa, 33, Suad, 36, and Sondos, 28. Three of their grandchildren, Omar, Mustafa, and Jana, were also killed, along with their niece Ola, 33, who had sought refuge in her father’s house from where she lives in southern Gaza because of the intense Israeli bombardment.
When I was in Gaza, I remember visiting them during the holidays and seeing a picture of our great-grandfather, Ahmad Aljamal, on the wall. Our great-grandfather was killed in 1948, days before the Zionist militias depopulated my ancestral village and forced its inhabitants at gunpoint “further south” to Gaza, where we have lived for the past 75 years. Today, nothing has changed as Israel demands that Palestinians move from the north of Gaza and Gaza City “further south” in what looks like another horrific scene of the Nakba that continues since 1948.
Even as thousands of Palestinians followed the orders or threats of the Israeli army and moved south, their convoys were targeted by Israel, killing at least 70. It became clear to many Palestinians in Gaza that there is no safe place in Gaza, and that being in Rafah is as deadly as being in Jabaliya, as the Israeli massacres targeted everyone and planted death and fear once again in the hearts of Gazans.
Jihad, by God!
“The post-mortem on the disastrous Biden years will be one of incredulity at how Joe Biden, of all people, was ever placed in charge.” —J. White
The fog of war has never been so dense, what with the years-long sustained psy-ops of the US Intel “Community” against the American people . . . the lawfare operations of the Democratic Party against innocent patriots . . . the homicidal depredations of the pharma-government complex . . . the Cultural Marxists’ weaponizations of language against common sense and common decency . . . the Neocon warhawks’ serial failed crusades to control faraway lands of dubious national interest . . .and the relentless mendacity of the sell-out Big Media. . .
It’s a wonder that anybody might venture a coherent thought, or that such a thought might survive transmission from person to person intact, without a sadistic beat-down or a dishonest, tactical inversion of meaning along the way. A thought such as: the Jews have a right to exist in a place called Israel. This is now up for debate around the world, whereas it had been accepted as self-evident by many civilized states a few weeks ago.
Televised Apocalypse, But First, a Word from Our Sponsor

"As Jews commit, most nakedly, ethnic cleansing in Gaza, the American Senate voted 97 to 0 to back Israel. With Jewjabs and the war in Ukraine, that’s three simultaneous Jew orchestrated genocides."
[Phnom Penh, 10/28/23]
All roads lead to Phnom Penh’s sublime Central Market, of course. There, you can find every merchandise, fruits unknown to all scientists and faces you haven’t seen in years. Just now, you pass your long-dead aunt. Wearing a new dress of the latest fashion, she looks much younger even. Coy, she pretends not to recognize your sorry ass.
Leaving Kracheh was not easy, but my visa was winding down, so I had to take a drowsy mini bus to cosmopolitan Phnom Penh, where all problems can be solved, including securing a visa extension. Nodding off, my head nearly made a soft landing onto the young lady next to me. Though I had wanted to glimpse Skun again, I dozed right through it. There, I had bought a mess of silkworm pupae, garnished with raw scallion and chili pepper.
Since I was Cu’s best customer for nearly two weeks, he was not happy to see me leave. On my last day, I hired him twice and treated him to lunch. On a visit to tiny Mahob, we lingered at a store run by a Chinese-Cambodian family. Encountering such a freakish foreigner, the kids didn’t smile.
Putin Might Have Cancelled Armageddon
Egypt has 100,000 troops at the Gaza border hoping to take badly needed supplies to 2.3 million Palestinians. Even before the recent war, Israel had been rationing the people of Gaza to less water than the UN says human beings need.
Putin has aircraft with Mach 12 Kinzhal missiles on board planes in the Black Sea. The Kinzhal is Mach 10 and has a total speed of Mach 12 when launched from a fast jet. It can sink an aircraft carrier. It digs a hole 98 feet (30 meters) deep where its target used to be.
We were told the US Treasury deficit was a mere $1.7 trillion for fiscal year 2023. But that is not true. The US Treasury added $2 trillion in debt. In fact recently, they added $500 billion in debt in just one month.
Before the first shot is fired from American, Chinese and Russian ships in the Mediterranean, China could sell $30 billion an hour in US Treasury bonds every hour starting as soon as the London markets open and continuing when New York opens. New York and London Bankers will likely force the Biden admin to discontinue all this war talk nonsense.
Bankers will tell the idiot politicians in Washington what I have been saying for years: When, not if the Dollar Dies, our wages and pensions will be permanently cut 60%. Instant chaos and riots in every American city will ensue.
The US has kept its fleet over towards Sicily. But Russia can always get permission from Turkey to move his jets closer if Netanyahu tries to demolish the homes of all those people in Gaza and force them to go live in tents in the Sinai. Or Russia could use older ICBMs to launch a couple of Mach 20 Avangard missiles at those two US aircraft carriers. Iran also has the Kinzhal missile and a variety of other missiles to take out US ships in the Persian Gulf including that one aircraft carrier.
