Well wasn’t Israel intended as a homeland for Jews and as such it is “racist” – but what’s wrong with that? Many countries evolved containing mainly one “race” or “ethnic group” – the Jews didn’t have such a country. Where it gets tricky is the land used for this purpose already had people on it.
Is it still a European project now that a majority of Israelis are Sephardic (brown) Jews from the East? Is it more racist with 21% of Arab citizens than the surrounding Arab nations with zero Jews (and ambitions to exterminate every last Jews)? Were the Jews immigrating into the British Mandate after WW1 on the promise of a homeland somehow less alien than the 700,000 Arabs who came in between 1922-1938 from neighbouring states?
It’s still the only state I am aware of that defines itself in part as a homeland for a specific ethnic group.
Wasn’t Pakistan founded as a Muslim state for Indian ex-pats? It has certainly “encouraged” Hindus, Christians and other non-Muslims to seek a more suitable homeland.
Probably that was the intention, yes, though I don’t know that the right of return for ethnic Pakistanis (if that’s a thing) is written into their constitution in the same way that it is in Israel.
P is for Punjab, A is for Afghanistan, K is for Kashmir and S is for Sind. Balouchistan is in there too. Bangladesh was formerly East Pakistan. We should all know this.
Give it time, and youll see what the Ukrainian conflict is really all about…..
So racist 2 million Arabs live there.
Some 2 million more than the number of Jews living in Arab countries.
See my reply to Jon Garvey above
What Arab countries do is a separate question
I’m not taking sides here- in fact my natural inclination has always been pro Israel
For those who’ve not already seen it I do recommend this excellent presentation from Ivor Cummins which looks at the ‘movers and shakers’, the ones responsible for orchestrating the agendas and screwing up our societies.
“Who Runs the World, and How Do We Manage Them? The Full Story…”
My booked out live show in Salisbury – this I think may be my best talk ever…now viewable here on X!”
https://x.com/FatEmperor/status/1842883553912086588
Lol..absolutely hilarious… . Yes and who does he talk about… He talks about Rockafellas (Zionist Jews) and the BIS… The Bank of International Settlements.. THE biggest bank in the world who all the central banks deal with.. Founded in 1930 by you know who…. Jewish bankers.
Thanks for that Mogs…


“the ones responsible for orchestrating the agendas and screwing up our societies.”……. Absolutely bang on..
You’ve got this one right Mogs

After all, who doesn’t know that the world is full of Jewish bankers..
It’s alright love, you can acknowledge that the Jews own the world’s financial system without being “antisemitic”..
Chickens and Food Freedom
In this video clip Geoff Buys Cars continues his investigation of the great Chicken registration hoo-haa.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTolsjsmtDQ
At first sight this might just be seen as a light-hearted poke at bureaucratic over-reach but if you watch/scroll through to the end he raises the issue as to whether there is an underlying agenda of restricting people’s ability to produce their own food and be resilient and independent?
Indeed, his enthusiasm for cheap old Volvo’s has demonstrated that Cheap old Volvo’s = independence and resilience compared to the modern trend with EV’s of control, restriction and dependence. Even if you are not a car enthusiast, I feel he has homed in an important aspect of modern life.
I don’t think there can be any doubt that registering chickens will lead to an order to cull them all when the next Fergusson gallicide model comes out.
Precisely. The next manufactured pandemic will be bird flu, so they will come after all the chickens, then they will start one of Ferguson’s loved ‘contiguous culls’ of cattle, because they have been making noises for some time about bird flu being found in bovines. Heavens, we might even find ourselves encouraged to bang pots and pans to stop sparrows roosting in the trees, forcing them to die of exhaustion…
The NHS: where does all the money go?
It will be no different in other ministries, particularly no different, quite possibly worse, in defence.
‘Without a plan to fix the system you end up just announcing policies, doing media and waiting for something to happen.’

There are some very complicated plans to reform Whitehall.
No need.
Simply freeze recruitment for all the existing Departments.
Create shadow departments, each with their own, interoperable, IT system (sourced from Denmark) staffed from outside the public sector and gradually take over tasks and budgets.
Only that way can a new civil service culture of service be generated.
Bring in retired civil servants from Denmark (which has one of the best European civil services) to oversee the setting up of the new shadow departments.
If you want proof, simply fly to Copenhagen, go to the railway station and book a ticket on the civil service run railway.
You will be provided with a ticket by a charming lady speaking perfect English with a sense of humour, every time.
The Middle East is on the brink of all-out war – what happens next?

‘Mr Netanyahu needs to consider the rationality of his opponent, an unstable theocratic regime which is famously big on martyrdom.’

It knows what to do………
