Africa's problem is called France

Africa's problem is called France
Source: The dissident intellectual
France is one of the few (ex) powers of the defunct European system to have preserved and perpetuated hegemonic designs on what was its colonial empire, despite the loss of relative power, both in Europe and around the world, and the affirmation of a new international order that is no longer Eurocentric. In the beginning I was Charles de Gaulle wanting to prevent France's decline from a great world power to a regional power in decline and in a peripheral position in the new post-war order. For this purpose, France equipped itself with atomic weapons and attempted to reconquer the former imperial African territories through a policy of economic neocolonialism following the ambitious and visionary plan for French-speaking Africa developed by Jacques Foccart, one of the most important ideologues and strategists of the Gaullist era. Foccart's neo-imperial revival plan for France did not only aim at the reconquest of Africa, but to the expansion up every French-speaking territory in the world. The support provided by the Sdece fits into this context, the secret services for foreign countries, to the Quebec separatist movement, and that controversial “Long live free Quebec!” shouted by De Gaulle to the Montreal crowd in 1967.

Euro Italy: the blackmail of Target2

Euro Italy: the blackmail of Target2
Source: Heretically
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard is probably the best economic journalist in Europe. From the columns of the conservative Daily Telegraph, his gaze sweeps over the business international without blinders and, above all, without becoming a megaphone for the interests of the upper levels. His recent speech should prick up the ears of observers and decision-makers in our country. Evans claims that a creeping flight of capital from Italy is underway. The proof is our liabilities in the Target2 system of the European Central Bank. In a month, increased by 39 billion up to 465 billions of euros. One of the causes would be the possibility that the issue becomes operational (which Evans sarcastically calls subversive) day Minibot, the parallel currency intended for Public Administration payments, but usable in general, since every means of payment works on a fiduciary basis, that is, if people are willing to accept it.
The worry (or the secret hope) of the markets is that Italian private savers, holders of very significant sums,join the exodus. The first consideration is that capital flight comes from large investors, by funds and investment banks, supported by the ECB itself. It therefore has an eminently political character, exactly like the manipulation of spread, not in the hands of metaphysical markets, but the Central Bank's blackmail weapon. Read More

Orban beats Merkel and Macron: the pro-European dream is already dead

Of Francesco Cancellato
While the Meseberg summit between France and Germany gave birth to downward compromises and about-faces, Hungary has included a ban on helping migrants in its Constitution. If this was the window of opportunity to save the Union, it is already double locked

The plastic representation of the endless crisis of Europeanism is given to us by two events of the last two days. In the right corner, Viktor Orban, Hungarian Prime Minister, which inserts into the Constitution the ban on welcoming migrants and a one-year prison sentence for anyone who helps them, in what the media defined as the anti-Soros law. In the left corner, in what should be the cultural opposition to Orban, Angela Merkel and Emmanuel Macron, than from Meseberg Castle of their bilateral summit on the major reform of the eurozone, they come out with a joint declaration on the repatriations of asylum seekers to the countries of first landing, i.e. Italy and Greece.
If it were a Puzzle Week game we would say "spot the differences".If it was supposed to be an answer to Budapest, the Franco-German move is the perfect assist for Matteo Salvini to replicate the policies of his Hungarian master. And indeed, as per the script, he has already threatened – pardon: threatened by Prime Minister Conte -di desert Sunday's summit with France, Germany and Spain and to close the Italian borders, if France and Germany try to impose what they promised.

Andrea Bacciga, Bertucco and Evola: notes in the margin of a controversy
by

Image results for Bacciga, Evola, BertuccoWe receive and publish the “reader's letter” arrived this morning, which we share both in content and tone (N.d.R.)
On the side, the City Councilor Avv. Andrea Bacciga
of the lawyer. Abbondio Dal Bon

Dear Editor,
I'm speaking on the sidelines of the annoying controversy triggered by the minority city councilor, and left, (a Verona, n.d.r.) Michele Bertucco.
This advisor, having assigned himself the role of thought policeman and censor according to the narrow canons of political correctness, stigmatizes the proposal of the city councilor Andrea Bacciga to name a street in our city after the artist and philosopher Julius Evola.
It is useful to remember this gentleman as authoritative protagonists of the cultural debate, from the left, and not only that, yesterday and today have, albeit in a different capacity, appreciated the figure of Evola. Among others, in no particular order: Cesare Zavattini, Fellini, Lucio Dalla, Roberto Saviano, Massimo Cacciari, Franco Volpi, Antonio Gnoli and Giuseppe Sinopoli.

It's not the gypsies' fault, ma del deep State "de noantri"
by

Of Maurizio Blondet

IT'S NOT THE GYPSIES' FAULT. MA DEL DEEP STATE "DE NOANTRI"

IT IS NOT’ THE FAULT OF THE GYPSIES. BUT OF THE DEEP STATE “DE NOANTRI”

A listener talks about the illegal occupations of public housing by gypsies: “then they show the children and the magistrate unblocks the eviction. Of course, children disappear, and they sublet the cots". In received or occupied houses, they don't live there. Rome stations unusable for trains, unpunished pickpocketing, with boys and girls as accomplices. In a neighborhood, citizens …

The truth about migrants
by

Of Gianfranco La Grassa
The truth about migrants
Source: Conflicts and strategies
Tonight I admit that I clearly agreed with Meloni (to “white paper”): both on the topic of immigration and on that of the Roma. Those who are Italian citizens among the latter must behave and be treated like other Italian citizens. And they cannot stay in "nomad camps". Anyway, I imagine that those who know how to use the internet will find the intervention of the "sister of Italy" "quelque part" (scherzo). A statement from him, in particular, I found myself in complete agreement because it corresponds to what I have been thinking and saying for some time. It doesn't make much sense just to want an agreement with other European countries, especially France and Germany, which until now had turned a deaf ear and today, after the clear stance taken by the new government (of one of his ministers in particular), show some solidarity. In particular, Merkel is benevolent, which sees a situation of possible beneficial crisis finally taking place in that country between the CDU and the CSU, so dry that it even put the government already made up of two parties that were heavily beaten in the last elections in serious difficulties (especially the socialist as is happening throughout Europe!).

«Dear left-wing enlightened people, have you ever wondered why Italians don't think like you?»

«Dear left-wing enlightened people, have you ever wondered why Italians don't think like you?»
Source: Times
Didn't read up yesterday Republic the appeal of the twelve finalists of the Strega Prize who ask for the order to close the ports to be immediately revoked, «but it's as if I had done it, these kinds of appeals are all the same and extremely predictable". Only the day before Luca Ricolfi, sociologist, professor of Data Analysis at the University of Turin and scientific director of David Hume Foundation, on the basis of the Ipsos survey which gave the 71 percent of Italians in favor of Salvini's hard line - «not just the voters who vote for the right or Five Star, but also a third of the voters of the Democratic Party" -, he had signed a letter to the illuminati on Messenger: «Dear progressive politicians, dear committed intellectuals, dear enlightened manager, dear prelates, writers, singers, professor, television hosts, journalists who every day practice heartfelt appeals to cultivate a sense of humanity, have you ever wondered why so many Italians don't think like you?».
On the other hand, he tells tempi.it, «I listened (what are youtube) the thought of one of these witch prizes, that a few days ago, when the Aquarius had not yet arrived in Valencia, he confessed: "I myself, I have to say, con realpolitik, which I was also ashamed of, I thought yesterday, I wished someone would die on the Aquarius ship. I said: and now, if a child dies, I want to see what happens to our government". There's no need to even specify who, in particular, made such a miserable reasoning why, judging by the non-reactions of the progressive world (and indeed from the official defenses of his words, that would have been "taken out of context") one might think that what escaped a single intellectual was the afterthought of many. An afterthought that is not only a sign of lack of humanity but also of little interest in the common good. I find the attitude of those who harbor within themselves such great hatred and contempt for their political adversary as profoundly barbaric that they wish for anything that could harm the enemy.: today that a child dies, tomorrow the spread will rise and Italy will go under. And look, I don't love this government at all, and the only explicit public position I took before the vote was against the League and the Five Star Movement, because I believed them (and I believe them) a danger for the Italian economy. But this doesn't lead me to hope that they will sink the country, on the contrary, I hope they are able to prove me wrong". Read More

On immigration, Italian populists are the future. Merkel is the past

On immigration, Italian populists are the future. Merkel is the past
Source: Paolo Becchi

One hundred and ten years ago the British author Israel Zangwill completed the play The Melting Pot. First performed in Washington in October 1908 — where it was enthusiastically applauded by President Theodore Roosevelt — it celebrates the United States as a gigantic melting pot that fuses together “Celts and Latins, Slavs and Teutons, Greeks and Syrians — blacks and yellows — Jews and Gentiles” to form a single people.

"Yes", declares the hero of the play (like Zangwill's father, a Jewish immigrant from Russia), “Est e Ovest, and North and South, the palm and the pine, the pole and the equator, the crescent and the cross... Here everyone will unite to build the Republic of Man and the Kingdom of God".

It is rather difficult to imagine a similar play written about the European Union at the beginning of the 21st century. Or rather, one could easily imagine a very different one. In it, the influx of migrants from all over the world would have exactly the opposite effect to that imagined by Zangwill. Far from leading to fusion, the European migration crisis is leading to fission. The play could be called The Meltdown Pot.

I believe more and more that the issue of migration will be seen by future historians as the fatal solvent of the European Union. In their considerations, Brexit will simply appear as the first symptom of the crisis. Their thesis will be that a massive Migration of peoples [migration of peoples, NdT] overwhelmed the project of European integration, revealing the weakness of the European Union as an institution and bringing voters back to national politics to find solutions.

Christians taking to the streets in Vietnam against the communist regime
by


Catholics on the streets in Vietnam, a Binh Thuan, ad Ha Tinh e Vinh, for example, with rosaries, Vatican flags and banners, to protest against the granting of land to the Chinese communists and against the liberticidal law on cybersecurity, authentic Internet censorship: anyone who connects to Catholic sites risks prosecution.Law enforcement has already made thousands of arrests among protesters across the country, the regime has already threatened harsh repression. Which did not intimidate the Church: the Bishop emeritus of Kontum, mons. Michael Hoang Duc Oanh, also asked President Tran Dai Quang in writing to respect the will and rights of the people, to release those who have been arrested, as well as thus maintaining social peace.
The Bishop Emeritus also criticized the priests who are members of the National Assembly, completely regimented and for this reason they expressed themselves in favor of the new regulation on the web: "They betray our faith and our country", said the Bishop. Read More
