Morning Campers
Can anyone shed light on a question I’ve posed before & is constantly bugging me – WHY is HMG , Police , Media & anyone on the Left constantly intent on appeasing Iz Lamb ??
Possible answers (all of which could apply to some degree and in some cases)
1) Genuine respect (unlikely as same respect often not shown to other beliefs) 2) Fear (some people claiming to represent Islam engage in violence in the name of Islam, more so than other beliefs 3) Part of the “white guilt” virtue signalling disease 4) Part of a plot to destroy our civilisation.
Unfortunately it’s one of many topics on which I find it almost impossible to have a sensible conversation with people on (people who disagree with me that is) – it just descends into name calling.
Its a way of suppressing the white populations?
I think covered by point 4 – a means to and end rather than an end in itself – divide and rule.
Point 3 has my vote.
The answer is Point 4.
Point 3 is being used as a means to reach Point 4.
Western civilisation is to be destroyed in order to facilitate a One World Government. Once the West falls the Third Worlders will fall in to line and will have no choice about it anyway.
Thanks for all your reply’s including yours Hux but my next questions is now posed ??? IF Part 4 is the answer WHY would / do TPTB think that the militant iz lam ists will be easier to control / subdue than us ???
The islamists at the moment want to be the dominant force from a religious perspective and would like to be in a position where they could impose sharia but much beyond that they are clueless. Muslims could not run a bath and one look at the performance of the Khant in London confirms this. The reality is that they are and always will be third worlders. It might be the case that Muslims will out populate the native population but they will not be able to wrestle power from what will become an entrenched elite class. And there will be an elite class eventually if we lose this war. For the Davos Deviants muslim populations wrecking havoc across Europe are just a means to an end. Politically they are not seen as a threat.
Good synopsis Hux thanks , I’ve said before that western populations since the War have got used to the good life whilst we were needed to work in factory’s etc ! Everything is now outsourced & we are surplus to requirements but our numbers are many so we have to be crushed .
It’s called “The Unholy Muslim-Marxist Alliance”, also called “The Red-Green Alliance”.
For any man who’s a father of a daughter whilst simultaneously defending/being a Tate brothers fan AND railing against the Pakistani rape gangs, that’s some sizeable challenge for your cranium to house such an epic amount of cognitive dissonance, hypocrisy *and* a ( allegedly ) functioning brain. Surely your head would explode with the effort, like an over-inflated balloon! LOL Toxic narcissism at its finest;
”BREAKING: “Andrew and Tristan Tate have been charged with sexual intercourse with a MINOR and trafficking of minors.”
“Today, 21.08.2024, the prosecutors of the Directorate for the Investigation of Organized Crime and Terrorism – Central Structure, together with policemen from the Ilfov Organized Crime Service, implemented 4 home search warrants within the Ilfov county and Bucharest municipality, in a criminal case regarding the commission of the crimes of forming an organized criminal group, trafficking in minors, trafficking in persons, sexual intercourse with a minor, influencing statements and money laundering. The hearings are held at the headquarters of DIICOT – Central Structure.
The action benefits from the support of gendarmes from the Special Intervention Brigade of the Gendarmerie. Specialist support was provided by the Technical and Forensic Service within DIICOT – Central Structure and Special Operations Directorate of the Romanian Police.
We make it clear that, during the entire criminal process, the investigated persons benefit from the procedural rights and guarantees provided by the Code of Criminal Procedure, as well as the presumption of innocence”, the authorities say.”

”Andrew and Tristan Tate are pedophiles, and just had their home raided in a criminal case concerning sexual intercourse with a minor and trafficking of minors.
Andrew Tate admits on video to recruiting 15 year olds for sex and for his pornographic webcam business by DMing them on Instagram.
He’d target 20 per day, per his own admission.
Will Tate promoters like patrickbetdavid and Candace Owens finally denounce these creeps?
What’s the difference between supporting the Tate bros and supporting Jeffrey Epstein?
The answer, of course, is absolutely nothing.”

Mogs does this mean you believe all that
The DT has just discovered “Decades of decline have meant the U.K. has fallen rapidly behind in the global nuclear race, jeopardising the country’s energy security in the process”
A couple of decades or three behind the times, DT.
Someone on the Lockdown Sceptics forum refers to MonkeyPox as MoneyBox.
I tend to refer to monkeypox as moneypox.
See the Paula Jardine article I have linked to.
https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/the-making-of-monkeypox-part-two/
Paula Jardine at TCW with Part 2 of her look in to Moneypox and as usual it is all about money.
“If there’s one thing you can be as certain of as death and taxes, it’s that PHEICs are all about introducing new pharmaceuticals. This one is no exception. There is apparently a global shortage of mpox vaccine (no surprise there as smallpox is meant to have been eradicated), which Bavarian Nordic uses chicken eggs to manufacture. Expect to hear imminently that phase 3 testing of mRNA smallpox vaccines, or even emergency deployment, is about to start. A manufactured crisis won’t be allowed to go to waste.”
“Pakistani man accused of spreading lies about Southport attack charged”
Again & again we are bombarded with this Globalist Lie perpetuated by Liberal Handwringers Clutching Their Pearls:
” Oh dear me! If only those violent “Far-Right Rioters” had known it was an Ethnic African White-Hating Terrorist who stabbed 13 Ethnic Europeans, trying to murder them all, instead of a Muslim White-Hating Terrorist trying to stab Ethnic Europeans, as they have so often done in the past, everywhere in the West, then they would never have rioted!”
“So that’s why we must crack down on Freedom of Speech, don’t you see?”
