The physicist against the homelands

FIFTH COLUMN
Of Marcello Veneziani
Even the physicist Carlo Rovelli wanted to align himself with the Permanent Theme: attack patriotism because it turns into nationalist poison, Nazi and racist, and sing praises to humanity without borders. He wrote a long article yesterday in Corriere della Sera entitled "The only nation is humanity".
But why do we have to translate love of country with its violent and racist degeneration, it is not possible to love and protect your own nation, their civilization without degrading into xenophobia and racism? When we talk about religion, perhaps we reduce it to fanaticism and religious persecution? When we talk about family, of paternal love, maternal branch, we must necessarily reduce it to the abuses and abuses sometimes committed in its name? And changing sides, because when we talk about equality we don't immediately associate it with the memory of the Jacobin Terror or the horrors of communism in all its regimes? Or when we talk about freedom we perhaps reduce it to the abuses of freedom that lead to violence, to drugs, to oppression and arbitrariness?
The patriotic love, the natural and cultural bond with one's nation and its traditions, it is a fundamental need of the human soul and belongs to every era and every civilization. There are various ways of understanding that bond. Today, the most coherent way is not to close oneself in armed tribes against each other, but integrate nations into broader contexts, like Europe, and recognize mutual legitimacy and value of nations, yours like mine. But you can love humanity starting from your own city, from their own land, from your country. Feel solidarity starting from those who are closest to those who are further away. Read More

The left reduced to the sole thought of the elites

The left reduced to the sole thought of the elites
THE SELF-CRITICISM OF A CERTAIN LEFT (N.D.R.)
Source: The Manifesto
The left is in crisis today and is wondering how it could speak to the new populisms to lead them back to the tracks of an elitist democracy that resembles an oligarchy more than a democracy in the strict sense.
Vice versa, even when he says he wants to listen to the malaise of which populism is an expression, the left entrenches itself in the clichés of political correctness. While, In my opinion, an objective self-analysis would be enough to understand things from another angle. The question is what the left is today and what the left once was? Because there has been such a radical change? I already know the answer. We were wrong. What if we are wrong now?
In any case, reflect on what the left was at its origins, already contains the answer to the problem of populism today.
Before, right-wing populism didn't exist because many of the instances of today's populism were on the left. And the growth of people's rights was not considered reactionary, but progressive.
The great fracture on the left begins with the so-called third way and the complete surrender of progressives to neoliberalism. Since then we have been immersed in the single thought to the point of having lost the memory of ourselves. Read More

Identity and sovereignty? They are inseparable notions

Of Alain de Benoist
Identity and sovereignty? They are inseparable notions
Source: Barbadillo
Signor Alain de Benoist, in some environments, we tend to oppose two notions that everyone talks about today: identity and sovereignty. Nel Front National, Marion Maréchal-Le Pen would have represented the first, in opposition to Florian Philippot, which above all defends the second. Such opposition seems legitimate to her?
“Interviewed a few weeks ago by Causer magazine, Marine Le Pen said: "My project is intrinsically patriotic because it defends the sovereignty and identity of France in the same movement. When you forget one of the two, and the bar". So, we don't cheat. Because they should see themselves in the identity and sovereignty of opposing ideas, when they are complementary? Sovereignty without identity is but an empty shell, identity without sovereignty has every possibility of transforming into ectoplasm. So you don't need to separate them. One and the other, Furthermore, they are part of freedom. To be sovereign is to be free to decide your own policy. Preserving one's identity implies, for a people, to be able to freely decide the conditions of one's own social reproduction".
While identity is a necessarily vague concept, sovereignty is no longer easy to define?
“Less than it seems. The “one and indivisible” sovereignty recalled by Jean Bodin in The Six Books of the Republic (1576) it has little to do with sovereignty based on subsidiarity and the principle of sufficient competence, of which Althusius speaks in 1603 in his Politica methodice digesta. Bodin's approach is eminently modern. It implies the nation-state and the disappearance of the distinction that was previously made between power (power) and the authority or dignity of power (authority). Read More

Nasce l'asse Salvini-Orban: ​"Così cambieremo l'Europa"

The Interior Minister and the Hungarian Prime Minister spoke on the phone. Salvini: “Working to change EU rules”
Of Claudio Cartaldo
Matteo Salvini e Viktor Orban. The two leaders defined “populists” today they spoke on the phone. The Interior Minister announced it at a rally in Fiumicino.
For Salvini the government Conte does not risk isolation abroad. Right, today there was the harsh controversy with Tunis for those words about”export of convicts” which the Tunisian ambassador did not like. But the secretary of the Northern League is certain that it exists “much appreciation abroad” mostly yellow-green. And if signs of a thaw have arrived from Germany and France (but from here to appreciation there is a long way to go), certainly the Northern League member will have no difficulty in finding agreements with Prime Minister Orban's Hungary.
Today I had a long and cordial phone call with the Hungarian Prime Minister – Salvini said – who wished us well in our work and with whom we will work to change the rules of this European Union“. Ecco, l’Ue. In tomorrow's speech to the Senate on the occasion of the vote of confidence, il Italian Prime Minister should try to reassure EU partners and at the same time mark the way for the reforms that the Grilloleghisti would like to impose on Brussels. And it cannot be ruled out that the Conte government will put the Northern European countries into action, or at least Salvini, can try to forge a strong bond with countries governed by Eurosceptic presidents. And Orban's Hungary isn't at the top of the list, who has been attacking that Soros for some time (Ong does not search) that these days – keep case – he is in controversy with Lega and M5S. But not only that. “I will probably speak to the French Interior Minister tomorrow, Austrian – the Northern League member said – today I contacted the Tunisian ambassador, I met the Israeli ambassador a little while ago, the US ambassador. We are trying to build a network of tranquility and security, of peace and the fight against terrorism“. Read More

EXCUSE OF EU-ECB-IMF, L'UNGHERIA RINASCE

Hungary continues its policy of lowering taxes and tariffs. The newspapers and various Italian talk shows continue to ignore the economic revolution that is taking place in Hungary because they want to keep the people ignorant in order to prevent an ever-increasing number of people from starting to oppose the blood and tears measures launched by this government on behalf of the European Union.
For those who don't know (and unfortunately there are still many) a few months ago the Hungarian government decided to repay the debt contracted with the International Monetary Fund two years in advance in order to no longer suffer blackmail pressure from its inspectors.
After getting rid of these blackmailers and loan sharks, the government began to adopt a series of measures aimed at stimulating the economy and helping the weakest groups and thus decided to lower electricity bills, water, gas and urban waste disposal 20% and increased pensions to compensate recipients for the rising cost of living.
These measures would have been sufficient to improve the living conditions of Hungarians but the government has decided to go further and in fact in the tax bill recently approved by parliament new measures on family allowances and reduction of VAT from 27% al 5 % on live and slaughtered pigs.

“THE POPE” A SECRET CONCLAVE with LE 7 SORELLE e "mons". Parolin invited to Bilderberg

Of Maurizio Blondet
Sudden interest from globalist power plants in Italy. In the same days in which the Bilderberg group gathers in Turin, in Rome, Bergoglio (The Pope) chairs a summit, which he summoned, with the Seven Sisters – to be precise, with the supreme leaders of the multinational oil companies – and their transnational financial auxiliaries. The meeting will take place on 7-10 June. Information on this enigmatic Pope-Petroleum summit is about as scarce as that on Bilderberg. The meeting is in fact defined "private”, that is, secret and by invitation.
Why El Papa “from the suburbs”, of the "welcome" of immigrants, who preaches a Church that takes "the smell of sheep", meets in private with the most powerful capitalists, globalist billionaires, i.e. active promoters of the ferocious iniquities of terminal capitalism? “Ask them”, one feels like saying, paraphrasing the slogan of 8 per Mille.
The excuse for the meeting, to read unofficial press releases, it is the common concern of the oil billionaires and El Papa for climate change. “It is one of the most highly significant developments”, shakes up the statement, “demonstrating how large corporations work with other world leaders on climate change, coinciding with President Trump's complete withdrawal from the topic of global warming".
“A year ago Trump announced his intention to withdraw America from the Paris climate pact, which today is supported by all countries except the USA. Three years ago, Pope Francis wrote his encyclical Lbold Yeson the importance of tackling climate change: a first time in the history of the Church".
It can be said well: Bergoglio's new church has replaced anxiety for the eternal salvation of souls with an anxious thirst for the salvation of the planet - threatened, as everyone knows, from that polluter that is the human race. In this, with perfect coherence, in January last year, the Vatican called to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, as speaker at the conference “Saving the natural world”, that is, to instruct Christians on their new urgent moral tasks, the entomologist Paul Ehrlich, famous promoter of selective abortion and mass sterilization to defuse what he called "the Population Bomb", the demographic bomb.

The climate, the planet to be saved in its wild areas , beasts and forests, it's an urgent concern for the intelligent left, Obviously, for the rich "progressives". And therefore also of Francesco.
The press release gives an initial list of participants, warning that it is incomplete. They will be there:

The United States is tearing us apart, but in Italy no one noticed

The United States is tearing us apart, but in Italy no one noticed
Source: linkiesta

While bon ton Italy has a good time discussing populism and sovereignism, the Empire strikes again. Mike Pompeo, the secretary of state who came from the CIA (where it leaves, as new boss, tale Gina Haspel, at the time neocon very active in torture and now in fact confirmed in office with the decisive votes of the Democrats), announces "the harshest sanctions in history" against Iran, which could only be canceled if the ayatollahs took appropriate measures. Like disappearing off the face of the earth or converting to Buddhism. There is a basis for the disagreement with Iran, as is known, the Iranian nuclear deal signed in 2015 there USA, Ue, Russia in Onu. For almost the entire world the agreement works and, at a minimum, has blocked Iran's path to military nuclear power 15-20 years. For three countries, however, it is a dangerous disaster. Three against all, but in the three, alongside Israel and Saudi Arabia, there is the Empire, then the table jumps. Bad but that's how empires do it.
In the same speech, but, Pompeo, on behalf of the American administration, clearly explained the fate that awaits us: “We understand the financial and economic hardship this imposes on our friends, but you should know that we will hold accountable those who do prohibited business with Iran. I know that the Europeans want to preserve the nuclear agreement but now they know what our position is".
It's beautiful. Why Pompey, when he talks about “forbidden affairs”, means the businesses prohibited by the USA and the sanctions decided by them, not illicit or criminal business at all. 5 billions of actual trade, others 25 between protocols and agreements already signed and to be implemented. To give an idea: 30 billion was the value of the Italian Stability Law of 2018.

Orban: "Preserveremo l'identità cristiana della Nazione, no space for supranational activities"

Of Ismaele Rognoni
The day before obtaining the confidence of the Hungarian parliament for the third time in a row, Viktor Orban stated that “the new government's priority will be to preserve national security and Hungary's Christian identity”.
These words come after those of last Friday when in a radio interview Orban underlined how “his executive will continue to work on building an old-fashioned Christian democracy, rooted in European traditions, we believe in the importance of the nation and in Hungary there is no space for any type of supranational activity”.
A further characteristic of previous Orban governments was that of a growing contrast with the world of pro-migrant NGOs. If continuity in this sense were to occur, one of the first laws to be passed could be the so-called 'Anti-Soros' law, guilty, according to his accusers, to support the massive arrival of groups of non-EU migrants on European territory through strong economic support to the NGOs themselves.
