"May You Have a Merry & Wonderful & White Christmas!

Wishing You and Yours a White Christmas

May this Christmas find you and yours safe and sound.
And may we never forget
Our inheritance, the sacred traditions of our people
That ring in every bell, that harmonize in every carol,
That come down the chimney with Santa,
That shine in every act of charity and kindness,
That give us the scent of evergreen in our homes,
That turn us from the mundane nuances of life
To Ponder the beauty of Nature,
That which is noble in man,
And the gifts of God.
May we be worthy of our rich inheritance.
May this Christmas find us closer to our families and our personal ideals,
And may our people come closer to fulfillment of their hopes for their heritage and freedom! -- drduke written 1996

Best Wishes to You and Your Loved Ones!

You can still order books in time for Christmas, I am also sending my Christmas mailing to those who are on our recent contributor and subscription list. It has a fascinating "The True History Christmas" of which many are quite unaware.

From the Bottom of My Heart - Thank You for Your Dedication and Faithful Friendship and Support!
Best to You, Dr. Duke"

"Liberals are known to push boundaries, using everyone and everything around them to make a political point.
No one is off limits according to them, and they’ll exploit anything for a profit.
But this time, they stooped even lower than ever. In fact, you won’t believe what they just did to innocent 6-year-old girls.
Little children should be outside playing, not being used as pawns to ram a political point.
But leftists don’t care, which is why they selected young children to promote their anti-Trump hate-laced message.
But it gets worse.
These girls aren’t just spouting off left-wing talking points, they’ve been deemed the “potty-mouthed princesses”, and are seen muttering vulgarities for a profit.
LifeSite News reported:
“FCKH8.com achieved notoriety in 2014 with a video entitled “Potty-mouthed Princesses.” In that advertisement, little girls ages 6 to 13 let loose a tirade of profanity-laden thoughts on such adult topics as wage disparity, sexual assault, and rape.
FCKH8.com is owned by Synergy Media, a for-profit marketing company. According to its website, FCKH8 “has raised over $280,000 for equality causes, arming thousands of people with pro-LGBT equality, anti-racism and anti-sexism T-shirts that act as ‘mini-billboards’ for progress.”
The company is now selling pink “pussy hats” and related T-shirts through a website called PussyScouts. In an online advertisement released yesterday, pre-pubescent girls in pink “pussy hats” and mock Girl Scout uniforms perform an obscenity-laced “rap” about Donald Trump”.

Due to the absolute vulgarity and distasteful video, Mommy Underground refuses to provide the link.

These little girls are being exploited around the world, as leftist thugs cheer them on.
It’s absolutely repulsive.
LifeSite News reported just some of the vulgar words uttered by these young girls:

“Granny be droppin’ a beat that’s sick.

“We’re gonna rap about a prez who’s a sexist d***

“Ya call women ‘fat pigs,’ show us no respect.

“Try to grab my p***? You’re gonna get wrecked.”

(At this a snarling girl drives a fist into the palm of her fake fingernail-adorned hand.)

“Cuttin’ Planned Parenthood healthcare,

“An agenda more ****ed than your ****ed-up hair.”

(Here a girl makes an obscene gesture with both hands.)

“You said of ladies, you gotta ‘treat ‘em like ****

“Accused rapist, sex assault culprit.

“Like Princess Leia choked out Jabba the Hutt

“The Women’s March showed women’s mouths can’t be shut.”

“Super callous fraudster rapist sexist not my POTUS.

“Bull**** racist Muslim ban

“You’re loved by Nazis and the Ka-Ka-Klan … ”

There are no words.
To force young children to spout profanity, to misuse young girls this way, is beyond horrific.
As if they couldn’t go any lower, the left proves they can, in fact, hit a new rock bottom.
Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse, it does.
Future plans include making cookies shaped as female body parts and selling them.
And 100 percent of the profits is directed straight to Planned Parenthood.
Using young girls to sell cookies to fund abortions and rap obscene lyrics shows the disregard the left has to protect the innocence of these young girls."

"Whites are being crushed under endless taxes and fees while our states goes bankrupt supplying a never ending stream of social entitlements to slothful mud-runting savages who never rise up out the mire.

We seethe with anger watching waves of ethnic crime sweep through our nation and we burn rage when these predators have the utter nerve claim it is their cultural right to prey upon those that work and pay for the social entitlements they enjoy. We loathe and despise the fact that affirmative action guarantees the slothful non-white a college education; a home loan, with out the need for a down payment, nor repayment; and a job without regard to ability.

We are sick and tired of being inundated with non-English signs, banners, manual, posters, and voice mail in a land where there is a written contract in English between the governed and governing.

We are disgusted watching the young of today be enthrall by non-white gang adoration as they on their couches staring MTV while waiting for their next drug score laughing at the absurdity of illegal drug use and the huge transfer of wealth to countries that are little more than cesspools filled with social vermin.

We remember the better times, when crime was less, productivity was high, and the nation thrived. Those who came before us looked to the future with hope and optimism. Today, all we see is the ruin and decay brought on by non-whites and their never ending demand for reparations and entitlements.

Indeed, not only must we suffer the burden of taxes to provide for the nonworking ever slothful non-white, we are precluded from speaking in our defense. Any form of protest against the unfairness of the situation results in being labeled a racist and or Nazi.

We are members of the most oppressed group of all. We have no group protection. There is no NAACP to go crying to when our jobs are taken and given to an under-educated Indian. Maldef will never stand with us in court when we are brutally assaulted by a mob of angry Mexicans. Nor is there an ADL to raise the flag of protest when our ethnicity is belittled and targeted for violence in black rap songs. We don't even have a white caucus to represent us in government.

So, we must sit in silence and watch as the nation, indeed all of the civilization, built by our forefathers is dismantled. We are forced to watch as our knowledge and history is stolen given to those who either can not or will not use it in a feeble attempt to instill ethnic pride in those that have nothing to prideful about. We huddle together as our jobs and homes are given away, sacrificed upon the altar of multiculturalism.

WNs have watched the entire country, a land that reached for the stars, built the entire modern world, go from a land of productivity and ideas to a cesspool filled with social vermin who have done nothing with the 40 years of handouts they've received. In places like California, we live in an occupied land filled with foreign fighters who are ransacking the land with abandon."

"Family are ordered to GIVE their £600,000 home to their neighbours after losing eight-year legal row over an extension they said was built 3in into their garden.
Constantine family have lived at seven-bedroom £600,000 home for 31 years.
The Constantine family say they have been told to move out of their house in East Ham, London, and give their keys to their neighbours, the Alis, after losing a legal battle over an extension.
The two families have been locked in an eight-year row after the Constantines accused the Alis of trespass by building their extension on three inches of the Constantine garden. Now, a court has decided that the Constantines must move out of their home in less than three weeks and hand the seven-bedroom £600,000 home to the Alis to sell to cover their legal fees. Legal papers show that £132,544 from the sale will pay the Ali family's legal fees - the remainder will be given back to the Constantines
The Sun reports Yvette Constantine, 57, and husband Herman, 66, who have three adult children, have been left devastated by the ruling, which means they could be left homeless over Christmas.
The Constantines had accused the Alis of knocking down their fence and building an extension three inches into their garden when they were on holiday back in 2009, and the case ended up in the Civil Courts in 2012.
A judge sided with the Alis and the Constantines lost their subsequent appeals, and have now been ordered to leave their home by January 5 and hand over the house to cover their neighbours' legal fees.
Sardar Ali, 62, his wife Haliman and their son Tajammul, 36, have been given the right to sell the property in East Ham, east London, for at least £500,000.
Legal papers show that £132,544 from the sale will pay the Ali family's legal fees.
The remainder will be given back to the Constantines.
A source said: 'They will lose the house they had for 31 years and be homeless after Christmas. All because they objected about a neighbours' fence.'

" Although marketing campaigns position it as healthy, and it’s popular because of its low price, this is one oil that isn’t doing your body much good – as holistic health websites have been warning readers for many years.

A new study has reached several alarming conclusions about canola oil. First, it can increase plaque build-up in the brain, which is a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. It can make memory loss in Alzheimer’s patients worse, and impact their learning ability negatively.

Contrast this with olive oil, which has been shown in studies to improve memory impairment in patients with Alzheimer’s. It also reduces the levels of the amyloid plaques in the brain that are linked to tissue loss and cell death in those with this degenerative illness.

In this study, researchers used an animal model that mimics Alzheimer’s in humans as it progresses from the asymptomatic early stages to the full-blown disease. The mice were placed into two groups when they were six months old. One consumed a normal diet, and the other received a normal diet along with the equivalent of two tablespoons of canola oil per day.

When they were assessed a year later, the most obvious difference was the significant weight gain noted in the animals who ate the diet rich in canola oil. Maze tests showed that the animals also had working memory impairments.

When their brain tissue was examined, the mice who ate canola oil had far lower levels of a peptide that protects neurons from damage known as amyloid beta 1-40. They also had higher amounts of amyloid plaques in their brains. In addition, they had a significant reduction in the number of contacts between their neurons, which is a sign of extensive injury.

The researchers say that it’s a big mistake to consider this a healthy oil or to place it on the same level as oils that have proven benefits for your health.

Next, the researchers would like to conduct a study to find out if using canola oil in the short term can lead to damage. In addition, they feel a longer study looking into just how extensive this harm is could be helpful.

Lots of reasons to avoid canola oil

Harvard School of Public Health Adjunct Associate Professor Dr. Guy Crosby told the Daily Mail there are lots of reasons to be concerned about canola oil.

“Most canola is chemically extracted using a solvent called hexane, and heat is often applied which can affect the stability of the oil’s molecules, turn it rancid, destroy the omega-3s in it, and can even create trans fats,” he said.

Trans fats are linked to serious health problems, such as systemic inflammation and a higher risk of developing stroke, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. And don’t forget the weight gain!

Because canola oil comes from genetically modified rapeseeds, it can reduce kidney and liver function and increase cancer risk.

On top of that, it can deplete your body’s levels of vitamin E and raise your triglycerides by more than 40 percent. It has been linked to a rise in lung cancers, and it increases membrane rigidity, triggering degenerative diseases.

In short, if you care about your health, you’d do well to avoid this nasty oil and stick to natural fats like olive oil and butter."

"Donald Trump couldn't drink a bottle of water in 2017 without it becoming a news story.
The activists posing as journalists at CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, the Washington Post have completely lost it.
Even before Trump was elected, the left-wing media always cared more about their agenda than the facts. He couldn't make a single move without being turned into a negative headline or a trending topic – and somehow being accused of bigotry and colluding with Russia.
In case you've forgotten, let me refresh your memory on some of the Fakest News stories of 2017...
• For over a year now, the media has tried to prove that the only reason Trump won was because of election hacking and foreign collusion...and they still have NOTHING!
• When Trump first announced the travel ban, the media declared it was racist and Islamophobic – ignoring the fact that the list of countries on the ban was created by the Obama administration.
The media seems to have forgotten that their job is to report the news – not push an agenda or fight the President because they don't like him.
We can't let them get away with another year of this.
In 2018 we have to hold the media accountable. The talking heads need to do their jobs or hand in their resignations.
It's up to YOU to demand honesty and accuracy from the media.

Sincerely,
David Horowitz."

https://constitution.com/chess-champion ... ld-titles/
"Ukrainian chess champion Anna Muzychuk refused to defend her titles in Riyadh this week due to the nation’s abhorrent record on women’s rights.
“As to whether it was right or wrong, there will certainly be people who will support me and people who will condemn me,” Muzychuk said. “But I took this decision and I am responsible for it.”
As Reuters reports:
Saudi Arabia ended a ban on women driving in September but the conservative kingdom’s male guardianship system requires women to have a male relative’s approval for decisions on issues like education, employment, marriage and travel plans…
In what the World Chess Federation (FIDE) called an “historic agreement”, Saudi Arabia relaxed its dress code for the tournament, which has a total prize pot of $2 million.
This meant women would not need to wear the hijab or abaya — the loose-fitting, full-length robes that women are typically expected to wear. Instead, inside the venue, women could wear dark formal trouser suits and high-necked white blouses.
But these changes did not go far enough for Muzychuk.
Instead, Muzychuk has decided to boycott the tournament because the nation continues to oppress women, treating them as second class citizens.
“I have refused to go,” Muzychuk said. “It was certainly quite difficult to take such a decision because I am a current world champion in these chess disciplines – rapid chess and blitz. So if I do not participate in this tournament, I will lose both titles.”
However, there are other reason for Muzychuk to boycott the tournament… like the fact that Saudi’s are racists and have refused to entry to Israeli chess players.
It’s a move that should shame the World Chess Federation (FIDE) who scheduled the tournament in Saudi Arabia. The nation has refused entry to seven Israeli players, proving that they have no right to be hosting a competitive tournament of any kind.
The Times of Israel has more on the story:
On Sunday, Moshe Shalev, the interim head of the Israel Chess Federation, told The Times of Israel that the seven players had not been granted visas, despite indications last month that they would make history by being the first representatives of the Jewish state to publicly take part in an event hosted by the kingdom, which does not officially recognize the State of Israel.
Seven Israeli players had filed requests for visas to participate in the games to be held in Riyadh on December 26-30, as part of the world rapid and blitz chess championships.
If the players are not allowed to participate in the tournament, Israel will consider suing FIDE for the hateful treatment of their players.
ICF head Moshe Shalev said ​they would consider suing the World Chess Federation, an attempt to deter more discrimination against Israelis from happening in the future.
According to Aizenberg, the tournament’s winners can receive up to $2 million in cash prizes and therefore the ban “presents both economic and professional damage to your players.”
“And besides, it is our right to be treated as equal among all nations of the world,” he said.
“It is most outrageous that FIDE allows a state to agree to host an international championship, without promising to accept all athletes, regardless of their country of origin,” added Aizenberg.
Again, Saudi Arabia (and any other nation refusing access to players based solely on their ethnic/national heritage) should not be allowed to host such international competitive events."

"Two ships appeared to be illegally trading in oil from ship to ship to bypass sanctions. Ship-to-ship trade with North Korea on the high seas is forbidden in UNSC Resolution 2375 adopted in September, but such violations are nearly impossible to detect unless China aggressively cracks down on smuggling. The problem is that any oil embargo imposed on the North in the event of further provocations will probably be futile as long as illegal smuggling continues.It is uncertain whether the Chinese government is deliberately looking the other way, but it seems unlikely that it is unaware given the sheer volume."

"Want to exercise your constitutionally enshrined freedom of religion? If you live in Oregon, it’ll cost you $135,000.
That was at least the lesson handed down by a three-judge panel from the Oregon Court of Appeals on Thursday, when it upheld a massive penalty against a pair of bakers who declined to make a cake for a same-sex wedding back in 2013.
According to The Daily Signal, the husband-and-wife team of Aaron and Melissa Klein — who have already had to close their bakery due to a boycott — will now have to pay a $135,000 fine levied by a state agency.

The three-judge panel found that baking a cake did not count as “speech, art, or other expression” which would have been protected by the First Amendment.
Instead, the court found that the request to bake a cake for a same-sex wedding ceremony did not “impermissibly burden the Kleins’ right to the free exercise of religion” since they would only have to comply with “a neutral law of general applicability.”
The case has been the subject of much controversy after the Kleins refused to bake a cake for the wedding of Rachel and Laurel Bowman-Cryer, a lesbian couple, citing their Christian beliefs that marriage was between one man and one woman,

“We are very disappointed in the court’s decision,” said Michael Berry, deputy general counsel at First Liberty Institute, a religious liberty nonprofit that represents the Kleins.
“I think that punishing people for their religious beliefs is … not American, and it’s wrong.”

Meanwhile, one of the plaintiffs in the case tacitly compared what the Kleins did to segregation in the Jim Crow South.
“It does not matter how you were born or who you love,” Laurel Bowman-Cryer, one half of the lesbian couple who brought the complaint, said in a statement.
“All of us are equal under the law and should be treated equally. Oregon will not allow a ‘Straight Couples Only’ sign to be hung in bakeries or other stores.”

That all sounds very powerful and moving until you realize there is practically no equivalence between the two situations. Unlike Jim Crow, where widespread, state-sanctioned discrimination was used to reify a racial caste system, the Kleins were simply following the tenets of their religious faith.

No matter what you may feel about what the Bible says regarding homosexuality and its sinfulness, few would demur at acknowledging that it is, after all, in there. And, while some of our less educated compatriots might not know the exact language of the First Amendment — “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof” — there’s nearly universal awareness that the most widely celebrated tenth of the Bill of Rights allows Americans the freedom to practice their faith freely.

And yet, we have come to a juncture in our nation’s history where it isn’t enough for people to lose their livelihood over exercising their First Amendment rights, as the Kleins did when their business collapsed following the outcry over their decision to follow their faith. Sweet Cakes by Melissa, the bakery run by the couple, was forced out of business following the boycott — which, while somewhat punitive, is certainly protected under the First Amendment’s guarantee of the freedoms of speech of association. You know, the same First Amendment whose protections the Klein’s persecutors aren’t too jazzed about.
No, instead, Aaron and Melissa Klein must be forced into penury by a $135,000 fine, a levy no middle-class American family could reasonably afford. While the Kleins have collected significant amounts of money from supporters, the Oregonian reported they’ve said almost all of that has gone to legal fees.
Even if you believe that the Kleins’ actions aren’t constitutional and are in need of legal rebuke, do you believe that punishment fits this “crime?” Can you honestly convince yourself that justice, mercy and harmony hath increased in America by means of this draconian sanction?
And make no mistake, the state intends to collect: Brad Avakian, Oregon’s labor commissioner, affirmed that the $135,000 from the Kleins remains in escrow for the Bowman-Cryers.
After the court’s decision, Berry and others from the First Liberty Institute are looking at ways forward for the couple.
“We’re evaluating our options at this point, obviously in terms of whether we are going to appeal, etc., and we’ll discuss all those options with Aaron and Melissa Klein and decide on the best course of action for them,” Berry said. This could include an appeal to the Oregon Supreme Court.

Kelly Shackelford, president and CEO of First Liberty Institute, may have summed it up best in a written statement.
“Freedom of expression for ourselves should require freedom of expression for others,” Shackelford said.
“In a diverse and pluralistic society, people of good will should be able to peacefully coexist with different beliefs. We are disappointed that the court ruled against the Kleins.”
“I think it’s a sad day for our Constitution and for the rule of law in this country when a family-owned bakery can be put out of business simply for trying to follow their religious beliefs,” he added.
That, alas, is where the left has been going for quite some time now. Pluralism cannot be an option when there’s only one politically correct set of beliefs an individual can allowed to have.
And it isn’t enough for unpopular beliefs to be punished via social ostracism, either. The government must get in on it, as well — and if a $135,000 fine is what it takes, then a $135,000 fine it is.
The Supreme Court heard an argument earlier this month about a similar case from Colorado, as Christianity Today reported. Conservatives can only hope the highest court in the land can restore some sanity to this outrage."

"Adolf Hitler was so sick by April, 1945, that he could barely walk. I have family members who were close to Hans Baur, and I met this brave man in 1983. He gave me an autographed copy of his book: "Zwischen Himmel u, Erde mit Maechigen". English: "I was Hitler's Pilot". Hans Baur, (1897-1993), was one of the high ranking officers who was with Hitler right up until the final hour in the Berlin Bunker, on 30 April, 1945. He and I spoke for over an hour, and he revealed the whole truth to me, and much more, at that time. Hans Baur is also the last person to have seen Martin Bormann alive.

I understand that there is much fascination with Adolf Hitler, so much so that humanity will never forget him, nor ever stop toying with his historical image. But I can tell you with utter certainty, that Adolf Hitler died on April, 30th, 1945, in the Bunker, and was burned and buried in the courtyard outside. On his person was the original hand-written copy of the "Overture to Rienzi" by Richard Wagner, given to him on his 50th birthday by Winifried Wagner. Their ashes were thereby mixed in the fire. Hitler never "escaped" nor did he at any time have a desire to survive his beloved Germany, and be witness one again, to its enslavement. I have my information from a direct source.

Part of the confusion that lead to the rumors that Hitler had escaped to Argentina, are due to the fact that a good number of high ranking German officers did in deed escape to parts in South America. In total 10 submarines left Europe with high ranking Germans on board. One is unaccounted for: Two landed in Venezuela: Four landed in Brazil, and three were scuttled off Argentina, as witnessed by Argentines. In each case, witnesses were sure that it must be "Hitler", but none of these persons was Adolf Hitler.
All of the U-Boots which might have had refugees on board, left Europe long before the siege of Berlin by the Soviets.. So how could Hitler have been on board one of them, when we have photos of Hitler standing among the final ruins of the Reichskanslei Berlin? "
Maybe a body double?

Hitler stated on Sept. 1, 1939:
"I am asking of no German man more than I myself was ready throughout four years at any time to do. There will be no hardships for Germans to which I myself will not submit. My whole life henceforth belongs more than ever to my people. I am from now on just first soldier of the German Reich. I have once more put on that coat that was the most sacred and dear to me. I will not take it off again until victory is secured, or I will not survive the outcome."

"Hitler had done his best to try to secure a future for the German people when faced with the incalculable evil of the Soviet Empire and the Jewish-controlled "democracies."
When the productive resources of America, Britain and the Soviet Union began tipping the balance of power against Germany, Hitler exhausted himself fighting against insurmountable odds.
Hitler knew he was fighting against dishonorable barbarians, who butchered, stripped naked and hung up the body of Mussolini. Hitler decided to kill himself and have his body incinerated when the war was lost. "

"What happens when people with Christian worldviews and traditional family values are openly persecuted by the government?

That appears to be what is already happening in Canada, and a disturbing trend within our northern neighbor should serve as a warning of what may be coming to the United States soon.

In the province of Alberta, a couple hoping to adopt a child has had their application rejected by the government. The reason? They happen to personally believe that marriage is between a man and a woman.

“The Edmonton married couple say they submitted their application last year and passed a required course for potential adoptive parents,” reported CBC News. “But during a followup by officials this year, the couple say they ran into trouble when they answered questions about sexuality.”

Government workers forced the married couple to defend their views on gay marriage and homosexuality.

The couple, whose names have not been released for privacy reasons, explained that, as Christians, they do not personally believe that homosexuality is right. At the same time, they recognize that same-sex marriage is legal.

This answer is both honest and fairly straightforward. After all, there are many hot-button topics like gun rights and abortion that individuals can disagree on personally while still respecting the law.

Incredibly, the government told the prospective parents that their answer was unacceptable, and holding a traditional view of marriage disqualified them from ever adopting a child.

“The casework supervisor explained that our religious beliefs regarding sexuality were incompatible with the adoption process,” the couple explained in a court affidavit. “The casework supervisor said this stance was the ‘official position of the Alberta government.'”

Canadian officials also demanded answers to other personal questions, such as how the couple would deal with a child who was questioning his or her sexuality.

“The couple told officials that children should be taught that sexuality should not be experienced or explored until a person is an adult and is married,” reported CBC. In other words, they took a stance that used to be called “traditional values” and “common sense.”

Remember, these aren’t people who are pushing an anti-gay agenda or badmouthing the law. They’re simply Christians hoping to adopt a child.

The hopeful parents “said they treat all people with respect and their views on sexuality would have no bearing on their ability to provide a loving, secure and happy home to a child,” CBC reported.

Government officials disagreed. They are now essentially punishing citizens for refusing to parrot progressive talking points on sexuality and politics.

“The respondent (Alberta) requires citizens to profess agreement with and support for its state-sanctioned beliefs in sexuality and gender,” explained the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, which is pushing for a judicial review on behalf of the couple.

“Making determinations about who is suitable to adopt on the basis of their sincere religious beliefs violates this couple’s right to religious freedom and equality under the law,” the organization elaborated.

The group also pointed out that a belief in traditional marriage is hardly some radical view, but is the widespread stance of many Catholics, other Christians, Muslims and Orthodox Jews.

Keep in mind, Canada has its own version of the First Amendment in its constitution, which guarantees religious freedom to citizens.

“Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: Freedom of conscience and religion; Freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression,” declares the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Instead, the government is now discriminating against religious people.

This is alarming, and even individuals who are not particularly religious should recognize that using the government to attack common conservative views is a slippery slope that leads to a very dangerous place.

Canada is a canary in the mine shaft of liberalism, and trends there are right around the corner for Americans.

Make no mistake: The “social justice” crowd will use anything possible as a political weapon… and that sadly includes denying parenthood to couples that simply want to raise children in a loving home.

More importantly, it also includes depriving a child of the love and care of committed adoptive parents."

"It appears Kim Jong Un wishes to provoke the US into war as he continues to make threats against the U.S., while also deploying missile tests.
In an attempt to squash the conflict diplomatically the United Nations has made a last stitch effort to punish North Korea by implementing new U.N. sanctions expected to make a significant impact starting in next March.
“In addition to further toughened sanctions, an increase in North Korea’s investment in conventional forces in the aftermath of military pressure stemming from the (Korean) deployment of American strategic assets is forecast to hit the North Korean economy seriously sometime after March next year,” according to The Institute for National Security Strategy, a South Korean research team, as reported by Yonhap News Agency. “March has been pinned for the timing for the [United Nations Security Sanction] Resolution 2375 adopted in September to take effect, given the U.N. sanctions committee’s position that the effects of sanctions begin to be seen six to twelve months after their introduction.”

The U.N. approved sanctions to banned North Korea from importing all natural gas liquids, the organization also agreed to introduce caps on crude oil imports.
Other world powers have threatened to introduce their own strict sanctions separate from the U.N. ones if North Korea continues to build its nuclear program.
Although North Korea has slowed down in terms of the number missile tests, there have been more long-range missile tested. This means that the country is closer to building a nuclear arsenal that could reach the U.S.
China has offered limited assistance to halt North Korea’s aggressive behavior and doesn’t approve of military action.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said Monday that “peacefully resolving the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue through dialogue and consultation represents the consistent position of the Chinese government.”
But, Lieutenant General Wang Hongguang believes China needs to be ready for war in the Korean peninsula.
“China should be psychologically prepared for a potential Korean war, and the Northeast China regions should be mobilized for that,” said Wang over the weekend, according to The Global Times. “Such mobilization is not to launch a war, but for defensive purposes.”

Both China and Russia have been doing drills in preparation.
“The main target of the joint drills between China and Russia is the U.S., which has both ballistic and cruise missiles that could pose a real threat to both Beijing and Moscow,” said Song to the South China Morning Post on Sunday. “Both China and Russia wanted to use these joint anti-missile drills for strategic deterrence. They want to push the U.S. to withdraw its Terminal High Altitude Area Defence (THAAD) from the Korean peninsula.”

Even with Trump’s remarks warning North Korea to reframe from making more threats to the U.S. because they will be met with “fire and fury,” the country continues to send threatening messages through state-owned news outlets.
“The right to preemptive attack is not exclusive to the U.S. The U.S. should cool-headedly face up to the reality that the iron-willed DPRK’s preemptive nuclear attack against provocateurs is just not hot air,” wrote North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on Monday."

"Several reports out of the China-North Korean border area indicate that Beijing is massing People’s Liberation Army troops on the frontier and has told them to prepare for war.

“Columns of (People’s Liberation Army) trucks have been pictured on the move near Yanji City which is close to the triple border between China, Russia and North Korea,” the U.K. Star reported Tuesday.
According to a computer translation of the Korean-language Daily NK, military trucks have been moving into position at night so as not to attract the attention of locals."

"In the space of just a few years, political correctness dictated that anyone who dared deviate from the rubric that individuals were whatever gender they called themselves (or had themselves surgically-altered to resemble) was “transphobic.”

This idea was based not off of science, which has been sorely lacking on the matter. Instead, it’s based off of a feeling — the feeling that if a man says they were really born a woman, damn the chromosomal evidence and call them a woman, or else we call you a bigot.

There’s a good reason why the cultural left doesn’t mention science when it comes to the transgender debate. That’s because it isn’t on their side.

In a 2016 piece for the Witherspoon Institute, one of the doctors who ran (and subsequently shut down) one of the pioneering sex-change surgery centers in America says that’s it’s an incontrovertible fact “transgendered men do not become women, nor do transgendered women become men.”

Dr. Paul R. McHugh is a Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University. He was also in charge of psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins, which pioneered sex change operations from 1975 to 2001.

In 1979, he made the decision to halt operations after he saw what science had to say about those suffering from what we now call gender identity disorder — and it’s decidedly different than what the left would have you believe.

Jon Meyer, who headed up the university hospital’s Sexual Behaviors Consultation Unit, studied a small sample of patients who had undergone sex change surgery. According to the Baltimore Sun, he found that while the surgical procedure may be “subjectively satisfying” for patients, there was “no objective advantage in terms of social rehabilitation.”

“With these facts in hand,” McHugh wrote, “I concluded that Hopkins was fundamentally cooperating with a mental illness.”

Almost 40 years after he shut Johns Hopkins’ operation down, McHugh still believes that transgenderism is fundamentally an illness — and one that the media is enabling.

“The idea that one’s sex is fluid and a matter open to choice runs unquestioned through our culture and is reflected everywhere in the media, the theater, the classroom, and in many medical clinics,” McHugh wrote in the 2016 piece.

“It has taken on cult-like features: its own special lingo, internet chat rooms providing slick answers to new recruits, and clubs for easy access to dresses and styles supporting the sex change. It is doing much damage to families, adolescents, and children and should be confronted as an opinion without biological foundation wherever it emerges.”

Sadly, the medical field has been taken in by the fashion of the moment, according to McHugh, which he says has left him as a lonely voice of reason speaking truth to power.

“I am ever trying to be the boy among the bystanders who points to what’s real,” McHugh wrote. “I do so not only because truth matters, but also because overlooked amid the hoopla — enhanced now by Bruce Jenner’s celebrity and Annie Leibovitz’s photography — stand many victims.

“Think, for example, of the parents whom no one — not doctors, schools, nor even churches — will help to rescue their children from these strange notions of being transgendered and the problematic lives these notions herald.”

Unlike the champions of transgender causes in the media, McHugh has 40 years experience working with transgender individuals. He’s not only seen the studies, he’s seen patients firsthand. Which means, of course, he’s considered a bigot by the left.

A 2015 piece on McHugh by liberal online rag ThinkProgress was unsubtly titled “Meet The Doctor Social Conservatives Depend On To Justify Anti-Transgender Hate,” presumably by someone who has zero experience working with transgender individuals and has seen roughly zero patients suffering from gender identity disorder. Another piece from the folks at The Daily Beast identified McHugh as an “Anti-LGBT Doc.”

McHugh insists that he’s “not against transgender people,” merely that he’s “anxious they get the help they need.” But that’s the kind of attitude that doesn’t get you plaudits from MTV or courage awards.

That shouldn’t matter in the medical field — but alas, it does, including at the program which Dr. McHugh used to run. Thirty-eight years after McHugh made the decision to shut the sex-change surgery unit down, Johns Hopkins resumed a transgender health service with an accompanying surgical program.

On so many issues, we’ve come to a point where popular feeling can override scientific debate, or even established scientific facts. In this case, the danger isn’t just to a society where modishness is valued over facts. The biggest peril is upon those who are suffering from gender identity disorder, people who are being fed lies by a media and medical community whose sails are so rigged to be blown wherever the winds of public opinion may take them."

"One of the greatest strains on European nations since the start of the migrant crisis has been on national and local governments who have been swamped with those who want benefits and assistance from the state.
In Sweden, one of the hardest-hit countries in the Eurozone, authorities predict that welfare payments are likely to overwhelm tax revenues for the foreseeable future.
“From 2018, we expect the need for welfare to increase significantly faster than tax revenues,” Annika Wallenskog, chief economist at Sweden’s Local Authorities and County Council, said in October of 2017.
So, how to cover this sort of thing? Well, part of the solution is thinking ahead — which is why residents of the Czech Republic ought to be thankful for Act 500/2004of the Code of Administrative Procedure.
What’s that, you may ask? Well, it’s a law that deals with how individuals in the Czech Republic deal with each other or the state itself.
It’s a fairly wide-ranging document that was passed into law in 2004. However, there is language in there that makes it more difficult for migrants solely there for economic reasons to get government aid.
As in any country, aid requires an individual to interact with the government and fill out the requisite forms. Unlike other countries, though, the Czech Republic doesn’t bend over backwards to make things easier for individuals to arrive in the country and collect benefits right off the bat.
Section 16, part 1 of Section 500/2004 states that “Communication within the procedure shall be carried out and documents executed in the Czech language. Parties to the procedure may also communicate and file submissions in the Slovak language.”
In part 2, it notes that, “Documents executed in a foreign language shall be submitted by the party to the procedure in the original version and, concurrently, in an officially attested translation to the Czech language, unless the administrative authority informs the party to the procedure that such translation is not required. Such declaration may be made by the administrative authority also on its official notice board for an indefinite number of future procedures.”
So, how does one get a translator?
“Every person who declares that he/she does not speak the language of the procedure shall have the right to have an interpreter entered on the list of interpreters; he/she shall use the interpreter’s services at his/her own expense,” part 3 reads.
“In procedures regarding an application, the applicant who is not a citizen of the Czech Republic, shall arrange for the services of an interpreter at his/her own expense, unless the law specifies otherwise.”
In other words, if an individual wants to file for benefits, they would have to get an interpreter’s services at their own expense.
In the case of legitimate refugees, there are likely refugee organizations that can handle this, as well as resettlement and the like. When it comes to the uncontrolled migration that swept across Europe, it would place a burden on the individual to get their own translator and pay for it if they wanted benefits.
It’s also worth noting that there are other barriers to getting government cash in the Czech Republic; only permanent residents, for instance, can get unemployment benefits.
While Act 500/2004 is one of the measures against the migrant crisis hitting the Czech Republic hard, there are other measures that the country has been taken to ensure they’re not hit with an influx of people crossing into the country. In fact, the European Union took action against them last summer for only taking in 12 of their quota of over 2,600 refugees.
However, if they do come into the Czech Republic, it’s likely going to be a lot harder for them to be a major drain on the system."
