This screaming comes not only from the US mainstream, but also from that European elite which has been housebroken for seventy years as obedient poodles, dachshunds or corgis in the American menagerie, via intense vetting by US trans-Atlantic “cooperation” associations. They have based their careers on the illusion of sharing the world empire by following U.S. whims in the Middle East and transforming the mission of their armed forces from defense into foreign intervention units of NATO under U.S. command. Having not thought seriously about the implications of this for over half a century, they panic at the suggestion of being left to themselves."Mass Dementia in the Western Establishment." By Diana Johnstone, The Unz Review, 7/20/18.
A blog about Islamic intolerance and fanaticism; socialism; communism; government stupidity; and lying weasels everywhere, hopefully couched in vibrant and literate English and foreign words that make us look good.

Colonel and others, readers >>about the madness
When I was young and not so young we had various characters, heroes, and archetypes
Who we read about with admiration
For me, this was Davey Crockett, Daniel Boone, and also the bad boys like Jesse James , Ned Kelly [Aus]
Then later we had Will Rogers and Mark Twain and so on, for me never politicians.
After the insanity and the war or whatever happens, people and boys will look around to see if there was anybody good in there.
So I decided to have a couple of blogs about real people, the Archives of characters and heroes.
First up >> Ol’ Remus at the Woodpile Report, I collected the archives as I could with a section on legend and mythology

Well, I look forward to that. I think how I look at things can be easily determined from my various postings but a more objective person will have insight I don't have, of course. Other than my focus on communism and Syria I'll hazard a guess I'm a bit too eclectic to get a bead on . . . .
I like the blog Bluebird of Bitterness as the author is obviously kind, fun loving, and blessed with an aesthetic sense. I like hard-eyed political and social commentary, as that is part of the complete picture too, but I appreciate the human touch at any time.
I have thought of doing a blog that celebrates individual bit characters in history and making them examples to guide us. One story I ran across in a 19th-c. account of life in the Northwest Territory was pretty neat. A young man joined the militia during the Blackhawk Wars and happened to ride past a young Indian boy who shot him twice in the back. The bullets lodged near his spine but he suffered no crippling injury. While he was recovering he said that he was glad he had not shot the kid upon coming up on him as he would not have wanted to live with such a killing on his conscience for the rest of his life.
The man went on to be a preacher in Washington State iirc and was buried there with a bit of a bio on his Find-a-Grave page.
Point being was that he acted according to his conscience as a young man which I assume was shaped by his Christian faith, that faith that is so casually or viciously derided as a cult or an instrument of control. Clearly the moral sense operated in earlier times and it would be a great service to extract such stories from the blizzard of lies about our culture and our past and show a more balanced view. As it is now, we deal with caricatures and distortions of Christianity, capitalism, the Founders, New England witch hunters, McCarthy, men, and the Constitution.
The goal is an epiphany, an understanding of the true human condition. Like the young black girl who watched the TV drama "Shoa" and remarked that she could see it has not only been blacks who have suffered from (white) oppression. So we should look back and see the human drama in all its fullness instead of rejecting all old things as corrupted or lifeless.
