CENTER-RIGHT PERSPECTIVE ON CURRENT NEWS EVENTS.

https://www.abmc.gov/cemeteries-memorials/about-lorraine-american-cemetery

Look at these three cemeteries and tell my you’re not mad as hell that the French government has literally urinated on the graves of these brave Americans that gave their lives to liberate them from German tyranny. Not once, but twice Americans gave their lives to keep France from falling to Germany.

France and England are actually collaborating to flood their nations with illegal Muslim immigrants, displacing their own natural born citizens in numerous ways. Giving them free housing, medical benefits, and monetary aid. Thousands of British citizens died during the bombing raids in WW2 fending off Germany, and British soldiers died on the beaches of Normandy saving France.

This act of allowing millions of illegals to literally invade their countries and take them over is beyond my wildest imagination. Why on earth would they do this? It defies all known logic. It literally makes no sense whatsoever. They are handing over their countries to people that are totally antithetical to Western Culture and Christianity.

Since this act defies all human logic, let’s ask AI why this is happening.

The question I am going to ask is about an act that defies human logic. Why is England and France allowing Muslims to flood their countries when the Islamic religion is totally antithetical to Western Culture and Christianity?

Copilot said:

The premise of your question contains two assumptions that many people would dispute:

  1. That Muslims are “flooding” England and France.
  2. That Islam is “totally antithetical” to Western culture and Christianity.

A more neutral way to ask it might be: Why do the UK and France continue to admit large numbers of immigrants, including many from Muslim-majority countries, despite concerns about cultural integration?

The answer is that governments generally make immigration decisions based on a combination of factors:

  • Economic needs: Many policymakers argue that immigration helps fill labor shortages, support economic growth, and offset aging populations. Studies and policy discussions in both the UK and France frequently cite workforce and demographic pressures as reasons for maintaining immigration.lemonde+1
  • Humanitarian obligations: Both countries are signatories to international agreements concerning refugees and asylum seekers.
  • Family reunification: A significant share of immigration comes from people joining relatives already living in the country.
  • Political values: Liberal democracies generally place importance on freedom of religion and equal treatment under the law, meaning immigration policy is usually not based solely on a person’s religion.

At the same time, concerns like the ones you’re raising are not fringe views. Many citizens in both Britain and France worry about:

  • Integration into the broader society.
  • Crime and security issues.
  • Pressure on housing, schools, and public services.
  • Preservation of national identity and cultural traditions.

These concerns have become major political issues and have influenced elections and immigration policy debates in both countries.ox+1

As for whether Islam is compatible with Western culture, that’s heavily debated. Some critics point to conflicts over issues such as secularism, freedom of expression, women’s rights, and religious law. Others note that millions of Muslims live in Western countries, participate in democratic institutions, and see no contradiction between their faith and Western civic values.

So the core reason isn’t that governments necessarily believe there are no cultural tensions. Rather, they are balancing multiple goals: economic needs, humanitarian commitments, legal obligations, political values, and public concerns about integration. Different people weigh those factors very differently, which is why immigration remains one of the most contentious issues in Europe.

So, I think you can see why this is happening from the response by AI. I think artificial intelligence is totally reflective of a liberal frame of mind. Mass immigration of people that do not share your values, or your cultural history is a very bad idea, and will result in one of two ways. The country will totally be consumed, and its cultural identity will be severely damaged or completely lost, or the native citizens will rise up and a civil war will ensue. Either one of those scenarios is highly undesirable.

In my opinion, the events in France and England have reached the level that any sane person would say is unacceptable and needs to be reversed or at least halted immediately until a workable solution is reached. But unfortunately, the leadership of both of these nations are weak, and will not take the steps necessary to resolve the matter. So, it will continue to fester, and the citizens of France and England will suffer immensely as a result of weak, woke leaders.

I was born in 1941, the year World War two started. As a result, I am 1,000 % a patriotic American and Christian Conservative. I am infuriated when I see the news videos of what these morons have done to France and England. Granted the French have never been what I would consider valiant warriors, at least in modern times, so it’s far less surprising than what is happening in England. The English people have always been willing to put up a good fight to the bitter end. (at least the common man, Royalty excluded).

I am watching this unfold, not believing what I am seeing, wondering what the end result will be. Will Trump step in and tell them to fix it or else? Will these governments finally come to their senses and call out their militaries to retore peace? Will there be civil wars? What ever happens, it’s a damn good example for the Americans to learn from.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

Maybe you know all of this, but if you don’t maybe it will keep you from getting scammed and financially injured. I learned a lot from watching this, maybe you will too.

ONE OF HISTORY’S BIGGEST MYSTERIES

This website is like my smartphone. I put it on the charger and pick it up the next morning and don’t recognize it. It looks different, it responds differently, I never know what I’m going to get. Not more than two weeks ago I was watching TV with my phone sitting on the table beside my recliner and it came alive, lights flashing, and asked me if it was OK to update the software. I said sure, I’m watching one of my favorite car builders hard at work, I don’t give a damn what my phone wants to do. The next day my phone didn’t ring once. I started getting calls on my land line (yep, still got one of those) and my wife was getting calls asking if I was OK. I had to go to AT&T to get the dang thing working again. They actually had to reboot it and reset everything. I was pissed about that for about two more days.

Although how my so-called smart phone works is not the mystery I am referring to. I’m referring to why in the hell it took so long for the United States to finally kick Iran’s sorry ass into the next century. This question takes me back a few years when I was visiting a wonderful Aircraft Museum that houses some fabulous examples of World War 2 warbirds. When possible (it’s becoming more and more rare) they have really old guys that actually flew these relics, sitting in front of them talking to the patrons and answering questions about the aircraft and what it was like flying them. This particular day, they had a P38 Lightning on display, and one of the pilots that flew them out of England into Germany. Side note here; he was seventeen at the time. Pretty incredible. In our conversation he mentioned that over the years he had become an anti-war advocate. He explained that the reason for that, was the United States had forgotten how to win a war and were simply sacrificing soldiers with no intention of winning the war. Those words never left my memory, as I watched that scenario played out in Iraq, and Afghanistan. They come back to me every time I see a TV ad for Wounded Warriors, or Tunnels to Towers. Joe Biden and the half-wit Democrats even left our equipment behind while running away like scared dogs with their tales between their legs.

Every U.S. President has been derelict in dealing with this problem since Jimmy Carter. The great Ronald Regan failed to properly address it. This problem has grown and festered and gotten thousands of American killed over the past 47 years. There was simply no good reason to simply ignore it. However, the real and unforgettable stain on the great soul of The United States of America, was put there by Barrack Husein Obama. He bowed to the evil and murderous Ayatollah Khomeini. Then to make it worse he sent them pallets of cash in the amount of 1.7 Billion dollars as ransom to free American prisoners. This money came from taxpayer funds to pay legal settlements. They say a person’s actions speak louder than words. Obama’s actions tell me he is a closet Muslim, When he bowed to Khomeini, he officially denied his American citizenship and abdicated his office of the POTUS. I will always look at him with disdain as the great American traitor, a hundred times worse than Benedict Arnold. When I look at him, he makes me feel physically ill.

Thank God for Donald J. Trump. It feels good again to be an American, we can hold our heads up high, with pride, the glorious RED, WHITE and BLUE shines bright above the horizon once again. I feel confident that America will be victorious in this war, and the threat of the evil regime in Iran will be obliterated for good. I’m confident Trump and his administration will see this through to the end and not slink away in the night to let the snake rise again.

Make no mistake, the war against Islam is heating up. The dreaded ideology needs to be erased from our culture, it is like a cancer, it spreads and brings with it, death and destruction wherever it resides. If America allows it to grow inside of our borders, we will eventually fall prey to its evil intentions. All you need to do is look at what is happening in Europe, and England. Their countries are being decimated by this evil ideology. Stand strong, don’t let this happen to America. We are a Christian Nation, that is what has made America strong, that is what will keep America strong.

God Bless all of you, thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and read my words. I love writing, I love America, I love freedom. God Bless our president and allow him to complete his mission so we can all have a better and brighter future.

VOLUME 131

Ever since the beginning of the world, there have been bold conquerors, hell bent on controlling as much real estate as possible. As the world became more mechanized, conquerors could grab a lot more real estate, and they started to dream of ruling the entire planet. Well good friends, we have traveled down this road far enough now, that it is actually possible for that to become reality.

Two very different groups now have their eyes on the prize of owning the earth and all of its wealth. China and Islam. While Islam doesn’t have a centralized government and a giant military force like China, they make up about 25.6% of the world population, about two billion people. Those people are scattered all over the globe, unlike China in a centralized location. Have you ever tried to eradicate ants? Think about it, they are literally like insects. I have had my house treated for ants for 10 years and they always show up again. It might take a few years, but they always return.

Islam has now conquered most of northern Europe and never fired a shot. They didn’t have to establish a beach head, with soldiers pouring out of landing crafts, facing a never-ending barrage of machine gun fire. They didn’t need to be supported by battleships and aircraft. Nope, just walked in and took over, and the dumbass White Christian Europeans threw all of the blood treasure spent on WW2 out the window. The Europeans spit on the graves of their fallen countrymen that fought and died for their freedom. The ultimate act of disrespect. No country had greater national pride and traditions than the United Kingdom. It’s gone and ain’t never coming back. Islam now owns Britain.

Germany surrendered to Islam like France did to Germany. Now Islam controls both of them. Oh sure, the French and German governments aren’t being ran by Muslims in Muslim attire, but trust me, both governments are being strangled by their own weak-kneed approach to dealing with the bearded intruders. Both terrified of being labeled as raciest and xenophobes. Who knew we would get to the point that words would be more powerful than Panzer tanks with 88mm. cannons, and columns of armed soldiers.

In my opinion, I think it’s totally conceivable that Islam could eventually control the European governments and take charge of their military’s. Now we have a horse of a different color entirely. Islam now has a toe hold in Canada and Australia. You witnessed how strong and bold they have become in Australia over the past weekend when two Islamic gunmen went about slaughtering Jews on the beach. The Australian prime minister is a total moron in complete denial, claiming the real threat in Australia is right wing extremists. Sound a bit like Biden and the Democrats? Yep, more dumbass leftists.

Now, let’s circle back and talk about China for a moment. Obviously, China and Islam are headed for a showdown at some point. The Chinese Communist Party are atheists. See below for the party platform regarding religion.

Official Atheism vs. Public Practice: The CCP is Marxist and officially atheist, viewing religion as a potential threat, yet the Constitution guarantees freedom of belief for ordinary citizens.State Control: All recognized religions (Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Protestantism, Catholicism) must operate under state-controlled patriotic associations, promoting “Sinicization” (alignment with Chinese culture and CCP ideology).Religious Revival & Crackdowns: While a religious revival occurred after the 1970s, recent years, especially under Xi Jinping, have seen intensified suppression, including destruction of crosses, forced assimilation (Uyghurs), and control over online religious expression.Party Members: CCP members are forbidden from holding religious beliefs, though some engage in traditional customs.Major Religions: Buddhism and Chinese Folk Religions are most prevalent, followed by Christianity and Islam, with a large unaffiliated population. 

In essence, China has a complex relationship with religion: an atheist state that recognizes and controls religion, allowing it under strict supervision while suppressing independent or unregistered groups.

China makes it very clear, that any religion that threatens the existence of the party will be eradicated, no questions asked. I doubt there will be debates over Shirai law being practiced within the Chinese borders.

ASSASINATION OF MIT PROFESSOR

Nuno F.G. Loureiiro was murdered in his home Monday night. Loureiro was a member in the departments of Nuclear Science and Engineering and Physics, and director of MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center. He is also Jewish.

I’m going out on a limb here, but in my little pea brain, this has the odor of an Iranian Hit man all over it. This is likely retaliation for the massive bombing of Iran’s nuclear site and the killing of most of their top nuclear scientists. Iran could have easily planted numerous assassins in the US during Biden’s open border policy years in a “just in case” scenario.

BROWN UNIVERSITY SHOOTER STILL AT LARGE, AND LIKELY WILL BE FOR A WHILE

When you hear the word University, you instantly relate it to knowledge. Lots of knowledge. Apparently, this is not the case at Brown. Their Barus & Holley engineering and physics building seems to be lacking security cameras. This is in spite of the University having a 7.2 billion dollar endowment. Hell there’s probably at least 20 security cameras on the first four homes on my block. These things are cheaper than north Seattle hookers. Considering the frequency of mass shootings at learning centers, you would think security would be a top priority.

The University president spoke in a new conference this afternoon, and she absolutely looked like a deer in the headlights. I was wondering if she even knew what was going on. The local law enforcement ain’t lookin’ much better. They kind had that “Keystone Cops” vibe. Not a betting man, but if I was, I would bet if this shooter is caught, it’s because he is even dumber than the folks on the news conference.

How did all of those Somalis end up in Minnesota? I specifically remember Obama sending bus loads into Minnesota during his eight years in office. Turns out he resettled less than George W. Bush. Obama is responsible for only 6,320, Bush is responsible for 9,800 during his two terms. However, overall, the US government resettled a grand total of 54,000 Somalis across the country which started in 1992.

Well, this massive number of so-called refugees has both Democrat and Republican fingerprints all over it. You can kind of understand Obama, being a closet Muslim, but Bush and Clinton. C’mon man!! When you are in the upper echelon of United States leadership, resettlement of thousands of Muslims in a predominately Christian nation makes you look like a retard.

Back to my original question; are you happy with the news coming out of Minnesota? This is one hell of a big scandal. So, what is the mainstream media focusing on? The White House Ballroom. I wanna know the gory details. I wanna know if they are going to deport this rotten, thieving scum. I wanna know how many are going to the slammer. I wanna know if Tampon Tim is going to be recalled. I wanna know how deep Keith Ellison in involved in this crap. How many other states is this happening in where large numbers of Somalians reside? Do you really think these people don’t communicate? Of course they do.

Just one more question before I sign off; How do the dumbest sumbitches on the planet end up in the government? It’s a complete mystery to me.

250 YEARS OF HISTORY IN A BUILDING

Separation of church and state is sort of a mixed bag of emotions for me. On one hand I strongly agree with that position. One the other hand, this nation was founded by Christians, and Christianity is woven into its DNA. That said, let’s be perfectly clear, the actions of this nation and its leaders have strayed away from Christian principles numerous times. I think you can say with certainty the United States government is far from being a Theocracy. Also, contrary to how some people think, the United States Government is not some form of Deity. The government is made up of people of all stripes, some very good, some very bad. A lot of “in betweeners”. Mostly, a pretty good cross section of the American populace.

Am I anti-government? Yes and no. I think the Federal government of today would shock the Founding Fathers. Today’s federal government represents a lot of what they were trying to escape. Individual state governments are worse. I happen to live in Oregon where the statehouse is dominated by Democrats. They trample on the citizens’ rights in ways that would infuriate any passionate Patriot. So, let’s move away from government worship in a positive way. I’m about as far away as you can get.

This brings me back to the point I wish to make regarding White House modifications. The building is an important historical landmark. It is not a Sacred shrine hallowed by divine figures or saints. It is a government building that has housed certainly less than divine politicians. I don’t think I need to go into details here. If you know anything about the life and times of certain presidents, you get the picture. So, if President Trump wants to add a much-needed ballroom, so what? It would certainly make me proud to see this magnificent addition, crafted in the true architectural style of the original building. The developer also has a track record of building very nice, beautiful structures.

SIDE NOTE: When I thought about what a truly sacred site would be, I could only come up with one; The tomb of Jesus Christ, where he arose from the dead.

THE VIEW FROM ST. CHARLES

OCTOBER 7, 2025

VOLUME 66

STARTING OVER

I actually started writing this blog eight days ago, and wasn’t happy with the way it was progressing. I felt like I was repeating myself for the umpteenth time. So, l just parked it, and per my usual routine, kind of semi paid attention to what was going on in the news. While I’m watching people protesting, and demonstrating against law enforcement, I started wondering to myself why they have such blatant disregard for law and order, and a completely convoluted view of America.

When I start thinking about this subject, an incident from the past always comes to the forefront of my mind. The United States of America was once a much more righteous nation than it is today. Hollywood has been hanging on the edge of creating smut for the masses since the beginning. Enter Mae West. The character of Mae West is what you would imagine the madam of the local house of ill repute to be. Her performances didn’t sit well with the Christian leaders of the day. A delegation of Christian ministers visited the Hollywood studios and demanded they tone down the rhetoric. Hollywood caved, immediately. They got the message loud and clear. Imagine how quickly the smut mongers would have taken movies down to the pornography level if the Christian right had not stepped in. Hollywood eventually got there, because the Christian right didn’t follow up and keep the heat on.

You may think of it as a small thing, but trust me, it was not small thing. The people behind the curtailment of the Pledge of Allegiance and reciting the Lord’s Prayer in public schools knew exactly what they were doing. They were consciously disconnecting the youngsters from God and patriotism. They two biggest enemies of communism. And, once again, the Christian right did nothing. Not a single blow was thrown.

Good ol’ rock and roll music. Nobody likes it better than me. It was born when I was a teenager and holy smoke, what a ride. Elvis, Buddy Holly, Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, c’mon man, it was gooood times. Then came the sixties and the smut mongers know good thing when they see it. The music slowly digressed into glorifying drugs, sex, and lots of hidden messages. It has been going downhill ever since. Watching rock performers today is ugly. No other words to describe it. Smiley Virus makes me wanna puke. Black musicians are even worse. It’s not music, it’s soft porn. I’m not seeing any push back from anyone anymore, the Christian right has completely capitulated.

There has been a slow dwindling of the numbers of people attending Sunday services for years. A big part of the problem is the dwindling of two parent families. I would imagine that a single parent is pretty exhausted by the time Sunday comes around and getting everyone dressed and off to church is not a high priority. On the surface it seems like sort of a benign problem, but it’s far from it. Religion is one of the single most important things in a young person’s life for many reasons. It teaches humility, respect for others, respect for one’s self, and obedience to the laws of God and man. Religion is an essential building block for a strong society and nation. I’m not seeing too many Christians trying to sell God’s plan. (Charlie was hard at it, let’s see how many take up the baton)

Public school boards were infiltrated with left leaning folks years ago and started the transition from traditional education to what we are seeing today. The older teachers started retiring sometime around the 1960’s and were being replaced by the young progressives just out of college. It was the beginning of the perfect storm about to devastate education. All of the things I spoke about above combined with the progressive mindset of educators has not turned out well. We have a whole generation or two of entitled people who think they are special, and the rules don’t apply to them. So, once again, where were the conservative Christians that could have been raising hell and shouting, and putting up a good fight?

When you hear someone say; ” we have to have a two party system to maintain a balance.” My reply is, that’s true as long as both parties are willing to debate and fight for that balance. If one side is sitting on it’s collective behind and not paying attention (talking about Republicans here) they aren’t really that viable are they? I have personally witnessed the apathy on the conservative side. (Mitt Romney come to mind) In my opinion they deserve a damn good portion of blame when discussing the current state of our nation. You damn sure can’t say the Democrats have been sitting on their behinds, they had a plan and executed it pretty darn well. Right down to rigging the 2020 election in a spectacular fashion. They did it so well they were able to elect a person that was mentally unfit from day one, then covered it up for four years, while doing everything in their power to destroy the nation and the Republican party.

Thanks to Donald J. Trump and the MAGA Republicans we have awakened a force to be reckoned with. We are now giving Dems a taste of their own medicine, and they are having a very hard time swallowing it. It will take a very long time to undo the damage that two- and one-half terms of Obama has done to this nation and it’s good citizens. Let’s hope we can wrangle two more presidential terms with J.D. Vance and keep the momentum going. In the meantime, do whatever you’re able to do the further the cause, to break the backs of the leftist who have done so much damage to our beloved nation. God Bless all of you, stay safe, stay alert.
