the finest end of reason is to dispute well

 

James Mawdsley: "...I think the Jews have basically infiltrated the church, destroyed her liturgy, her dogma, and morals..." (Speaking as an interviewee on the Catholic Unscripted Youtube channel.)

James Healy: "I consider the suggestion that Jewish people have infiltrated the Catholic church and destroyed her core values to be untrue. As a perceived locus of power and influence and ready cash, the church is of course a target for infiltration, mainly, I would suggest, from the Cosa Nostra mafia and other criminal combines who have grown accustomed to leeching money from the Vatican bank. It also seems highly likely that the Chinese communist party and the resovietising dictator of Russia Vladimir Putin would each be making significant attempts to subvert the Catholic church from within as part of their competing geopolitical projects to dominate human history. Meanwhile Devil worshippers and Freemasons might be expected to infiltrate it for a larf. Oh there is manifest and widespread infiltration alright. Yet still somehow the Catholic Church endures. My concern is that Mr Mawdsley may himself be an infiltrator of the Catholic church attempting to spread vexatious chaos on behalf of one or other of the puppet master infiltrators I have just mentioned or perhaps on behalf of one I am not aware of. Absent mental illness, I cannot otherwise explain his nonsense talk with regard to the holy people."

An anti immigration march took place in Dublin at the weekend.

Among the demonstrators was one Conor McGregor who styles himself a mixed martial arts fighter.

Mr McGregor was recently found guilty by an Irish civil court Jury of raping a woman called Nikita Hand in 2018. He was ordered to pay her a quarter of a million Euro as well as her legal costs.

I would be cautious about such Jury convictions.

As a celebrity of sorts Mr McGregor could conceivably be a target for frivolous lawsuits.

The court decision is being appealed and didn't prevent him being welcomed as a guest of honour by President Donald Trump at the White House on Saint Patrick's day.

Here is the news which I wouldn't be cautious about.

Conor McGregor is a Kinahane gang controlled mobster in a Kinahane gang controlled sport.

The Kinahanes are a drug dealing, people trafficking, child abusing, Tinker gang and a key component in Ireland's presiding mafia the IRA.

The IRA was traditionally composed of Tinker gangs like the Kinahanes and their former allies the Hutch gang, which have in the past few decades squabbled over the drug trade and splintered into various competing factions each still considering themselves the IRA and each still primarily focussed on dealing drugs.

The Hutch gang now call themselves Continuity IRA and the Kinahanes call themselves the Real IRA.

The Kinahanes are currently headquartered in the Arab Statelet of Dubai, having long established links with international Muslim gangs through the drug trade and terrorism.

We should not allow Tinker gangs who have been up to their necks in mass Muslim immigration into Ireland, to represent themselves as being legitimately concerned about immigration nor should they be allowed to manipulate genuine public concerns on the matter.

For the record, the Kinahanes and the Hutch gang and their various Tinker ilks have done more damage to Ireland than any immigrants.

They've killed and terrorised more Irish people in thirty years through drug poisons, direct murder and induced suicides, than the British empire did in 800 years.

Suggestible internet media gulpens such as the Canadian based Rebel Media along with Robert Spencer's American based Jihad Watch and the more IRAophilic Gript media based here in Ireland, should reconsider their positive attitude to Conor McGregor and to the thug element of the Kinanahane gang which is organising the present wave of anti immigration demonstrations in Dublin.

I would appeal to the general public not to associate with any of these people.

That is all.

the youngest farmer

 

the lambs are in the fields

the youngest farmer rubs hands

chapped like dry leaves

in a life that never ends

you will not find his tale

in any tract of  erudition

but in the dull trochaic verses of the bible

is found the course of his living

he stands and does not hear

the echo from Mount Zion

resound through Cnoc An Oirthir

by the shores of old Kilcullen

and perhaps it's for the best

it would plaque him at his rest

strange days

 

It is a truth universally acknowledged that whenever I praise a commentator on the internet, he immediately goes flop bott and crackerdog.

I remember a few years ago telling everyone that the philosopher David Wood was one of the great thinkers of our era and perhaps the greatest Western scholar of Islam of all time.

Whereupon as if by magic, David Wood began eating Qurans live on air.

The axiom about my praise producing general nuttiness among the populace, was recalled to me again this week when the writer broadcaster Mark Steyn whom I have praised up to the hilt, declared that it was his view that the Iranians couldn't nuke Washington DC soon enough.

Sigh.

For the record Steyn is still right about many things particularly his excoriation of the British pseudo establishment for it's unjust incarceration of Tommy Robinson and his critique of Covid 19  vaccines.

But I have to demur mildly from his nuke Washington schtick.

Ditto David Wood still being a genius, he still is, although I wouldn't endorse his choice of culinary delicacies.

In other news, I dropped into an Aunt's house this evening and encountered my feminist cousin Pauline sporting a nifty lapel pin.

"What are you advertising?" I enquired.

"Free Palestine," she answered.

It was the work of a moment to launch into a few bars of my perennial hit song, a cover of a Jackson Five number, to wit:

"Don't blame it on the moonlight,

Don't blame it on the Jihad,

Don't blame it on the Islam,

Lay it on the Israelis.

Moonlight.

Jihad.

Iranians.

Lay it on the Israelis.

Islam.

Jihad.

Mass murder,

Lay it on the Israelis,

Hoo yeah."

The cousin pursed her lips, looked into the middle distance and murmured: "That's enough of that."

You know bold readers it's scarcely a decade ago when there were pro Palestine demos in Dublin and I would walk up to them and roar: "No more Muslim Terror," or "No more Jihad," or on one memorable occasion when I challenged fifty proselytising Muslims in the city centre with the phrase, "No more murders of little Jewish schoolgirls in France," and an Arab Muslim had laughed gleefully and his friend a white Muslim had told me, "You are a joke," and I had declaimed: "You are a joke, and your Prophet is a joke, and you and your religion and your Prophet are a joke on humanity and on the world," and the Arab Muslim who had been giggling about the dead schoolgirls went toe to toe with me snarling: "You walk on or I tear you," and I had faced him down with the classic line: "Ah go kill another schoolgirl Muslim," and I kept saying it and he kept snarling about tearing me until he broke and his fellow Muslims led him sobbing away like nothing so much as an overwrought psychopathic Islamic James Brown becoming tired and emotional during a typically het up performance and being led off by his backing group, led him away I tells ee, because for some arcane reason they weren't willing to kill me that day which was why your man was crying with frustration, but when Pauline told me tonight: "That's enough of that," I shut the fudge up.

The American actor Val Kilmer has died.

He starred in Top Secret, the best film of all time.

in search of an artistic identity

 

It has come to me as something of a shock

That I am not Hillaire Belloc

Nor by any stretch of the benison

Would you be likely to mistake me on a dark night for Alfred Lord Tennyson,

Of their particular talent I am bereft

So what's left?

How can I fulfill my art

When I'm much too optimistic to be Sartre

Nor nuts enough to be Van Gogh

And lack the guts of old Picasso!

What's a would be poet to do?

Too a lee, toor a lay

Toor a lay, toor a loo.

Great men of art are seldom found

Wherever there is work around

Our work is art we always say

Beseeching others to offer pay

For each iamb pentametric

I'll accept card, cash or checque.

leadership of the free world passes to me... gee shucks fellas... well, oh okay

United States President Donald Trump finally executed his deliberately contrived falling out with President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine during a televised meeting with President Zelensky at the White House today.

I had stated earlier this week that Trump was going to stage some such clash preparatory to betraying Ukraine to Russia's thug dictator Vladimir Putin.

The objective is to humiliate President Zelensky from office and to provide cover thereby for Trump's abandonment of Ukraine to Putin.

In attempting to demean President Zelensky, Trump is trying to do with verbal slander what Putin has spent three years trying to do with his armies.

Footage of the meeting while  no surprise still makes unpleasant viewing.

Trump and his Vice President, a purported Catholic who styles himself JD Vance, acted like a tag team trying to shout down the President of Ukraine with a mix of hectoring and inuendo.

"Have you even said thank you?" whined JD Vance. "I mean at this meeting. You haven't said one word of thanks today."

Presumably the thanks Vance was feigning outrage in pretending to seek, was for the previous American President Joe Biden's support for Ukraine.

Bless.

"You're playing with millions of peoples lives and risking World War Three," put in Donald Trump.

The sight of a mafia spiv internet troll (I mean Donald Trump) in tandem with a lout (I mean JD Vance) deriding President Zelensky, a man who has spent three years valourously, heroically and selflessly, leading his country in an existential battle against Russian invaders, presented a peculiarly repulsive spectacle.

By casting the leader of Ukraine as the villain of the piece, Trump was trafficking in a most appalling inversion of truth.

This was a staged provocation.

Straight from hell.

Bear in mind gentle readers, that when I say I sense evil with regard to Donald Trump, I am not talking about his hair style.

I am talking about supernatural satanic evil.

You should only pay attention to me if you've noticed that I labour under the burden of never having been wrong about such things before.

Trump had been a bit shaken during another meeting at the White House a few days ago with French President Emanuel Macron, when President Macron put a restraining hand on Trump and rejected his claim that America had given more financial support to Ukraine than Europe.

The physical hand of restraint upon Trump and the direct contradiction of Trump in full flow caused many of us to look on Macron with a new respect. Media critics of Trump were delighted.

Today Trump seemed anxious to show he could lay hands on Presidents too. He touched President Zelensky so deliberately and repeatedly that at one stage I thought he was going to tickle him.

But the work is done.

The public falling out has been precipitated before the eyes of the world, and Trump and his puppet master Putin will be hoping that the Ukrainians themselves will oust President Zelensky.

I was reminded of a single sentence in a book about the first Trump Administration written by Trump's former National Security Advisor General HR McMaster.

The salient sentence in the book is tucked away on page 309 as General McMaster muses to his wife: "After over a year in this job, I cannot understand Putin's hold on Trump."

Here is the news.

America is being led by an agent of Russia.

Trump is the Muscovian candidate.

That's the situation we're in.

I suggest we all go to church, repent and seek guidance.

I counsel people of principle and decency such as the Protestant Christian commentator Allie Beth Stukey and the Jewish broadcaster  Ben Shapiro: Stop accomodating Donald Trump.

As for the once great Mark Steyn.

You do whatever you want.

interesting times

I sit at table in the wee small hours of the night.

A howling wind sweeps across the fields, rattles the fittings on my old house and whistles in the flues.

It seems to presage something.

Donald Trump's second term of office as President of the United States has been underway for a month.

Some of  his policies seem good, some chaotic, some like comic opera, and some simply malign.

More specifically: His support for Israel is good. The appointment of Robert Kennedy as Secretary of Health and Human Services is good. Mr Kennedy is that rare creature, a genuinely principled critic of the power of large pharmaceutical companies. The new Health Secretary has in the past had the courage and insight to assert publically that mass vaccination programmes for the Covid 19 virus were unwarranted and caused still unmapped levels of death and injury in the general population. Mr Kennedy has also marshalled what I consider convincing evidence that the Mumps Measles Rubella vaccination programme for infants has induced a pandemic of autism across the world. President Trump's decisive attempt to re establish immigration law is good too as is his decision to release all government files relating to the assassination of Robert Kennedy's uncle, President John F Kennedy. President Trump's appointment of billionaire Elon Musk with broad powers to cut back on wasteful spending across the State sector, is what I mean by chaotic but may turn out to be good. Mr Musk made his fortune by persuading governments spooked by the fictional notion of climate change to move away from cars powered by the internal combustion engine which work and invest in his electric cars which don't work. I don't rate him. President Trump's threat to annex Canada, Greenland and Panama is what I mean by comic opera, as is his changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America and expelling Associated Press staffers from White House press conferences for refusing to use the new term.

And the malign...

In my view President Trump is this week staging a quarrel with the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky preparatory to betraying Ukraine itself to the resovietising dictator of Russia Vladimir Putin.

I counsel people of goodwill not to support Donald Trump.

I do not think he is mad.

The devil is in the detail.

And I sense evil.
