Good Friday Prayer for the Jews

The Roman Catholic prayer, Oremus et pro perfidis Judaeis, from the 1570 editio princeps:
Oremus et pro perfidis Judaeis: ut Deus et Dominus noster auferat velamen de cordibus eorum; ut et ipsi agnoscant Iesum Christum, Dominum nostrum. Omnipotens, sempiterne Deus, qui etiam iudaicam perfidiam a tua misericordia non repellis: exaudi preces nostras, quas pro illius populi obcaecatione deferimus; ut, agnita veritatis tuae luce, quae Chistus est, a suis tenebris erantur.
In English:
Let us pray also for the faithless Jews: that God and our Lord may lift the veil from their hearts; that they too may acknowledge Jesus Christ as our Lord. Almighty, eternal God, Who dost not bar even the faithlessness of the Jews from Thy mercy: hear our prayers, which we offer for the blindness of that people; in order that when they have acknowledged the light of Thy truth, which is Christ, they may be delivered from their darkness.
Auf Deutsch:

Karfreitagsfürbitte für die Juden
Lasset uns auch beten für die treulosen Juden: Gott, unser Herr, möge den Schleier von ihren Herzen wegnehmen, auf dass auch sie unseren Herrn Jesus Christus erkennen. / Allmächtiger ewiger Gott, du schließest sogar die treulosen Juden von deiner Erbarmung nicht aus; erhöre unsere Gebete, die wir ob der Verblendung jenes Volkes vor dich bringen: Möchten sie das Licht deiner Wahrheit, welches Christus ist, erkennen und ihrer Finsternis entrissen werden. Durch ihn, unseren Herrn.
The prayer began to disappear from the liturgy in the 1960's, about the same time as the other efforts of the Judaics began to bear significant fruit in the West.

Global Capitalism is no respecter of families, clans, nations, borders, or culture. Just like Marxism, it treats Man solely as an economic animal. All arguments for or against both have money and economics as their central organizing principle. In practice, Global Capitalism is simply the flip side of Marxism; it achieves Marxist Communism by different means.

The destruction of Western people and their civilization is very profitable. As Weiner-Savage says, "It's a business":

The Study of Antiquity

From Laudator Temporis Acti:
If we set our gaze on antiquity and earnestly study it, in the desire to form ourselves thereon, we get the feeling as if it were only then that we really became men.

Denn wenn wir uns dem Altertum gegenüberstellen und es ernstlich in der Absicht anschauen, uns daran zu bilden, so gewinnen wir die Empfindung, als ob wir erst eigentlich zu Menschen würden. -- Goethe

Christmas with proles

Why do people sing, in front of young children, that stupid song about Grandma getting run over by a reindeer? Is it out of selfish thoughtless or just garden variety stupidity? Doesn't anyone care about the magic and wonder of childhood innocence and imagination anymore? About anything besides their own immediate gratification and ridiculous impulses? No wonder so many whites don't have a problem mixing with the barbarians these days. They cannot tell the difference. I should hand out copies of Neil Postman's The Disappearance of Childhood this year.

Bah, humbug.

Medieval and Modern

W.H. Auden, Ode to the Medieval Poets, at Laudator Temporis Acti:
Chaucer, Langland, Douglas, Dunbar, with all your
brother Anons, how on earth did you ever manage,
without anaesthetics or plumbing,
in daily peril from witches, warlocks,

lepers, The Holy Office, foreign mercenaries
burning as they came, to write so cheerfully,
with no grimaces of self-pathos?
Long-winded you could be but not vulgar,

bawdy but not grubby, your raucous flytings
sheer high-spirited fun, whereas our makers,
beset by every creature comfort,
immune, they believe, to all superstitions,

even at their best are so often morose or
kinky, petrified by their gorgon egos.
We all ask, but I doubt if anyone
can really say why all age-groups should find our

Age quite so repulsive. Without its heartless
engines, though, you could not tenant my book-shelves,
on hand to delect my ear and chuckle
my sad flesh: I would gladly just now be

turning out verses to applaud a thundery
jovial June when the judas-tree is in blossom,
but am forbidden by the knowledge
that you would have wrought them so much better.

The Tenth Day of Yuletide

From the Asatru Folk Assembly:
Steadfastness is not something encouraged in the modern world. Literally, it means to hold firm in our place - and in a world of continual mobility and change, steadfastness becomes almost a liability. Lack of commitment, "hanging loose," flexibility, "not getting hung up" are sometimes praised to the exclusion of holding fast. And to be fair, flexibility and motion are desirable. The sun itself, that great wheel in the sky, moves. But it is nevertheless faithful, true to its nature as it transits across the extended stead that is its home.

The sun is, in fact, the epitome of commitment and regularity of steadfastness. It does not abandon its mission or deviate from its course. And neither must we.

Light a candle to Steadfastness, and let it anchor you in the purpose that defines your life.

Debunking the 9/11 debunkers

is as difficult as debunking the Hollowcost. No matter how much evidence and facts are put forth, many people remain true believers of the official story. For many of these sheep, especially American conservatives, if it ain't approved by FauxNews or Insanity, it ain't real.

Liberals complain about being out-Foxed

in this 2004 video about Rupert Murdoch's FauxNews. For four decades or more these whining, deceitful, commie bed-wetters had ruled the airwaves absolutely, totally unchallenged. Now that the new liberals have a strong voice, the older liberals are finding it hard to accept getting beat at their own game.

Sometimes it's a bit like watching two giants who have simultaneously broken into your home duke it out over who gets to eat you, molest your family, and take your stuff. You enjoy seeing one receive crushing blows to the head and then get back up and knock out the other's teeth. You feel like cheering but the knowledge of the ultimate outcome dampens your enthusiasm.

Who wins in this battle between the Stalinists and the Trotskyists? Hrmph. Well, we know who loses: real Americans.

We demand

  • A return to the letter and original spirit of the Constitution, as intended by the Founders.

  • A return to States' rights and local control of government.

  • The end of the Fed and the return of real money: gold and silver.

  • The end of the Federal income tax.

  • Freedom of association. No busing, no block-busting, no bans on steering or on Whites-only clubs or Whites-only organizations. Every other race has millions of clubs and organizations; to penalize Whites for having same (in their own countries no less!) is totally unfair and hypocritical.

  • The end of affirmative action and all racial preference and "hate" laws against Whites.

  • Decriminalization of "denying" the Holyhoax.

  • Immigration laws strictly enforced and the millions of illegals and their anchor babies deported.

  • The demolition of cremation of the Department of Education and hanging of the Marxists who run it, the teachers' unions, and the public schools.

  • That Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Michelle Malkin, Edd Hendee, Dan Patrick, Glenn Beck, and all other phony conservatives be banished from all public media for life.

    That's a good start.
  • WND reports on homeschoolers' test scores

    and the cost of homeschooling a child at home compared to one in government schools.
    The study showed homeschooled boys scored at the 87th percentile and girls were at the 88th percentile.
    Not bad. I'd bet the scores would have been higher if more homeschoolers used a classical education model.

    Fighting Liberalism

    from CWNY:
    That their enemies are “hate-filled” is a favorite axiom of the liberals, but in reality the essence of liberalism is hatred. No white Christian can hate like a liberal. And Herbert Butterfield tells us why this is so in his book, The Englishman and His History:
    Concerning the sin, of course, he is (as somebody wisely said) “against it”: indeed he hates it, with the added frenzy of the partisan who has discovered here the totally unexpected obstacle. On this view of life the sinners are indeed fewer in number, but how much wickeder to make up for it! And none is so unforgiving to the transgressors as the person who does not believe in original sin. Here is a system which releases us from self-discipline, authorizing us to treat the political enemy as
    subhuman, irredeemable. In consequence the good are engaged against the wicked in a more irretrievable warfare, where the makeshift of the ballot-box may itself become intolerable, and nothing is left but the resort to force.
    Liberals always hate those who oppose them, because if you oppose them you are standing in the way of the perfection of mankind. (1) They don’t believe that all men are tainted with original sin; they only see sin in those who oppose liberalism. And there is no self-control in the liberal’s makeup; being without sin he needs no self-discipline. Like a spoiled devil child he can indulge his every whim. And his whim is that his enemies must be eliminated at all costs.
    CWNY's consistency and clarity catches one in the throat sometimes. So does his Rx:
    Any white counter-attack, if it is to be successful, must be fought with an uncompromising faith in the whole Christian, European tradition and a clear understanding that liberals will never allow white Christians to live in liberaldom, hence a Christian European’s only defense is to destroy liberalism.
    Here he writes for me what I could not put into words about those at many of the pro-White blogs:
    What does the neo-pagan look to as a substitute for God? He, like his liberal cousins whom he despises, looks to the future. In that world there will be no individuals, just an intellectually, biologically superior herd of white technocrats. The neo-pagan’s dream is the same dream as the liberals: they too look to a future where the herd has triumphed over the individual. The two groups simply differ over the preferred color of the herd, but they are united in their common hatred of the white, Christian European.
    This is why they make no progress in fighting liberalism and the Eidechsenmenschen who are its biggest champions.

    Many thanks, CWYN, for keeping the faith and for continuing to man the barricades, oft, as I would imagine it seems to you, alone.

    Merry Christmas

    Typical news and culture today

    This morning our local radio newscasters were giving the headline teasers. For the first, they warned that Degenerates were becoming much more creative at getting to your children. Then, without a hint of irony, they changed tone and tantalizingly confided that they would also share with us, over the public airwaves, during morning-get-ready-for-school time, the identities of the sexiest flight attendants.

    Yesterday afternoon an FM spiritual station (I couldn't truly call anything on the radio "Christian.") interviewed some distinguished empty shirt about the alarming accelerating decline in church attendance. The upshot was that he really didn't know why people were leaving, but he's praying about it and his people should have a committee on the problem soon. And now for something completely different : Coming up next, we will be looking at the progress of ordaining women in the church. The twit behind the microphone intimated that they will explore how to continue bringing them up to the level "that men have always enjoyed." Explore. Progress. Enjoyed.

    Who is writing their copy? Lewis Carroll? George Orwell? Sigmund Freud?

    A highly rated online German course I recently previewed for my young children has a young German man say some simple sentence auf Deutsch and then has the young British girl arousedly effusing that we, too, could "fall in love" with his "sexy voice" if we would continue with the program. And this was in the introductory first lesson. God only knows what worse follows in the rest of the course, because I shan't.

    I don't listen to much radio anymore, and almost no television. Yet I find examples like the ones above most any day, whilst flipping randomly through the channels on the way to work or while searching for the weather report. I can only imagine what degradation young people are discovering and imbibing when they search or when they simply leave their radios and televisions on as most people do.

    Dear Parents and Friends, I impore you : Separate, lead, homeschool, now.

    By the way, fuer Deutsch lernen, I recommend Gene Moutoux's Essential German course, free online; Essential German Grammar, by Guy Stern and E. F. Bleiler; and Pimsleur German for aural and oral practice.

    Why study Latin and Greek?

    A great answer from Gail Trimble :
    I chose to study Classics at university mostly because of the variety. Already at school in Latin and Greek I could combine language work with studying different kinds of literature, and I liked the idea of being able to study philosophy, history, art and even philology (though at the time I wasn’t too sure what that was) all within one degree.
    Nothing brings together school "subjects" as well as a Classical Education does. Bene dictum, Gail.

    An encouraging word from Ygg

    as we tend the fires and welcome the haggard stragglers back into camp. Thanks to an anonymous fellow traveler and patriot for this from The Seven Samurai by Yggdrasil.

    "So in the meantime, it is our duty to wait patiently, and to hold ourselves in readiness.

    Every one of you has skills and a role to play.

    It is your duty to resist debt and conspicuous consumption. Do not allow your labor to strengthen our Marxist slave masters. Build your resources and contribute to the effort to spread our message to those with the spirit to hear and join our movement.

    It is your duty to spread your genes into the next generation.

    Any young lady who is willing to interact with you has already inherited the essential core of racial awareness that you seek. Remember, our ideas have been branded as markers of low status and low ability to support and nurture children. Stick to the socially acceptable displays of love, tenderness and dependability that are the psychological markers of evolutionary fitness in the sexual selection process. Display fitness for supporting her and nurturing her children in an appropriate male role.

    It is your duty to spread the message of your commitment and your calling in ways that do not diminish your own status or livelihood. Among probable enemies keep your counsel, yet spread the message diligently among our own who display a disposition to understand and respond positively.

    It is your duty to accumulate the resources to be a good missionary for the cause and to contribute to the efforts of others who display great skill in that calling.

    It is your duty to be patient and to remember that your calling is one of measured and disciplined sacrifice for a nation that will only value that calling in times of emergency and may never acknowledge nor approve your efforts on their behalf.

    As the emergency of our people becomes more apparent to all, one from among us will emerge as the Sensei, the Leader, the Fuhrer. We will know him when the time arrives.

    And when that Leader emerges, and upon taking diligent counsel announces to us that the time has indeed arrived, then shall we unleash the ancient hammer of Thor - the hammer of our hallowed ancestors and departed heroes! Only then shall we demonstrate to the other nations of the World just how seriously we take the survival of our own, and just how little selfishness and individualism we will tolerate until the emergency has passed and our independence and control over our own destiny have been assured.

    To the performance of all of the above duties I strictly enjoin each of you,

    as I remain faithfully yours..." -- Yggdrasil
    Thanks, I needed that.

    Why Johnny’s Teacher Can’t Teach

    by Heather Mac Donald, from Spring 1998, here. It's a great article and goes well with some of my favorite educational history books such as Richard Mitchell's Gift of Fire and The Graves of Academe; The War Against Grammar, by David Mulroy; and Who Killed Homer, by Victor Davis Hanson.

    Schooling was bad in 1998, thanks to the liberalism of the Carter, Reagan, and Clinton administrations. It is worse now, and if the current barrel of monkeys is any indicator, the future looks dark indeed.

    Goldman trader shares three big ideas with Lloyd

    From ZeroHedge.com:

    To: Lloyd Blankfein
    Re: Winning the Public Relations War

    Six months ago, with what I mistakenly took to be your tacit approval, I attempted to address ordinary Americans, almost as equals. They envied and resented our firm; I sought merely to correct their misunderstandings about Goldman Sachs and send them on their way, so that they might more briskly resume their quest for gainful employment.

    In hindsight, I misjudged their ability to see the reality of their situation, and of ours. At the time I accepted your strong suggestion that I never again try to speak directly to mortals -- or, as you referred to them, “The Morts.”

    Now our predicament is suddenly more dire. Ordinary Americans wish to control not just our pay but our core values: We at Goldman have long stood for the right of every prop group to trade against its firm’s customers. If we abdicate that right, who are we, deep down?

    In just the past few days many of us on the Goldman trading floor have wrestled with that question. We believe that rather than re-think our core values we should re-think our relations with the American public.

    Hence this memo. Your recent non-verbal signals -- your habit of passing directly behind my trading desk en route to the elevators, your selection of the urinal adjacent to my own -- convince me that you continue to value my thoughts.

    As it happens, I have recently conducted a thorough study of the culture of ordinary Americans. Please take the following ideas in the spirit in which they are intended: a team spirit.

    There is no “I” in Goldman Sachs, or in me. Nor will there ever be. more >>
    Michael Lewis worked at Salomon Brothers (another gigantic, rapacious Jewish firm) as a bond salesman, quit, and wrote about his adventures there in the humorous 1989 best-seller, Liars's Poker.

    Recently, he wrote a note to those Morts who ignorantly bash Goldman Sachs, here.

    "Tea Party" protestors silent when Bush was trashing the Constitution

    The only things that conservatives really seem to care about these days, now that all real history, Latin, Greek, Bible, and other liberal arts courses have been removed from the public school curriculum and long forgotten, are money and economics, and the associated politics. They have been reduced almost to the level of the soulless, nationless, rational and economic animals that Marxism and Globo-Capitalism assumed they were. I call them ICU's, individual consumer units.

    I've said this for years and the tea parties have not changed my opinion. As Timothy Egan reminds us, the Tea party protestors were silent when Bush was trashing the Constitution. They have long been blinded by the RedTeam-BlueTeam game and only after their own pockets were picked did they say anything.

    Their only arguments on talk radio are about the economics of a topic, even when it comes to illegal aliens. They still insist they are good multiculti non-racists and loudly proclaim their indifference to the ethnicity of their leader. Principle, culture, European identity and nationhood, freedom of association, et cetera, are rarely used as the basis of their arguments against the latest government intrusion. The spontaneous nature of and anger from tea party protests are real enough. But it is the rare host, caller, writer, or tea party protestor who demands more than his savings back, and rarer still the one who knows the rich culture he has been cheated out of.

    The Wall Street Mob

    From Busting Out The Joint, by Gonzalo Lira:
    Around 1990, I saw “Goodfellas” when it first came out. Scorcese’s quasi-nostalgic take on the Italo-American gangster culture of the 1960’s and ’70’s was like a tricked out Cadillac convertible: Eye-catching and glittery, and very very memorable.

    One of the scenes that struck me—and a film-school textbook example of how to stage a tracking shot—was the scene where the mobsters “bust out” a neighborhood restaurant. The camera dollied sideways as it first showed a long line of delivery men bringing in an obviously excessive amount of goods and supplies to the restaurant, then it showed how mobsters were taking those supplies out of the restaurant through the front door and loading them onto the back of a truck, all in one smooth motion.

    This was called “busting out the joint”.

    In mob parlance, as per Scorcese, “busting out” a restaurant or other business means buying supplies on credit, then stealing those supplies and leaving the business holding the bag. When the credit ceiling of the business is reached, the business is declared bankrupt and the creditors are stiffed. The mobsters, of course, walk away with all the supplies that were bought on credit and sell them off for a 100% profit. The beauty of the scam is that the business (and the business’ owners) are the ones stuck with the legal responsibility, while the creditors are stuck with the tab

    ...

    By whatever means, executives found themselves in control of fairly successful businesses. They had the businesses gorge on credit, while simultaneously paying themselves exorbitant fees and “special dividends”, or else they had the businesses take on suicidal levels of exposure at commesurately huge profit, which they siphoned to themselves in the form of salaries and bonuses. And when inevitably there was a dip and the businesses found themselves unable to pay . . .

    These businesses were "busted out" -—just like the mobsters in GoodFellas. ...

    ...

    Based on evidence gathered in the NY Times and Bloomberg—neither of them exactly Conspiracy Theory Central—you could successfully prosecute Maurice Greenberg and Thomas H. Lee Partners and their cronies for what they did to AIG and Simmons respectively. And in all the other cases going on, where Wall Streeters have walked away with obscene pay packages while leaving broken businesses behind, there’s practically a plaintive wail of retribution begging to be assuaged.

    Only thing is—nobody is prosecuting anybody.
    Of course not. They're all of the same looting, pillaging, raping tribe. Hey, Boy Scout, whaddya expect from this crew? Git ouda heah.

    A quotation fit for modern education

    Classicists will love this one from Evelyn Waugh. 
    [Headmaster]: "Parents are not interested in producing the ‘complete man’ any more. They want to qualify their boys for jobs in the modern world. You can hardly blame them, can you?” “Oh yes,” said Scott-King. “I can and do ... I think it would be very wicked indeed to do anything to fit a boy for the modern world.”
    This extract could have just as easily come from Goodbye, Mr. Chips, Orwell's 1984, or even Brave New World.  Richard Gamble provides the correct context, along with his comments, here

    How Goldman Sachs does it

    Matt Taibbi explains how they have been screwing us (for trillion$) and how they continue to get away with it. In the first part of this drama, Robert Rubin is Jud Suess, and later he, together with Alan Greenspan and Larry Summers, somehow ends up as Prince Valiant. Typical manipulation of the facts, but then, what should we expect from Rolling Stone?

    Notice too that Goldman Sachs is always an "it," a sentient being acting of "its" own volition; there are no responsible human actors inside, only the Golem. We are not told exactly who is doing what inside the monster. Gee, I wonder why.

    The articles' explanations about the oil bubble makes pretty good sense. If true, it shows James Kunstler to be not only a foul-mouthed, multicultural, leftist, commie jerkweed, but an incompetent moron to boot. Believe it or not.

    Another lesson: if you are inside Goldman and are offered a responsible, high-profile position outside the mother ship, decline it.

    Police state growth pains

    Nothing to worry about, just a rough transition to the New World Order. Tough challenges include Waco, Ruby Ridge, The Patriot Act, 9-11, wars for democracy in Iraq, public misunderstandings about Posse Comitatus, the militarization of local police forces, and international bankers buying up American assets for pennies on the dollar using American taxpayer money. Aber keine Angst, alles ist in ordnung. Utopia will be here before we know it.



    Alexander Solzhenitsyn famously wrote, of the Marxist revolution in Russia,
    "How we burned in the prison camps later thinking: What would things have been like if every police operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive? If during periods of mass arrests people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers or whatever was at hand? The organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt."
    It takes work to see -- and admit -- what is right in front of you. Oh, say, Americans, can you see?

    Phyllis Schlafly's eulogy for Jesse Helms

    From the Eagle Forum website:
    Helms called his Platform "morality in foreign policy." It promised "a realistic assessment of the Communist challenge" and bluntly criticized any giveaway of the Panama Canal or unilateral concessions to the Soviet Union. ...
    Jesse Helms became conservatism's conscience at the helm of U.S. foreign policy for the rest of his public life. During the Reagan years, Helms was the Senate leader in supporting our anti-Communist allies in other countries.

    During the dismal Clinton years, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Helms was Horatio on the Bridge, valiantly defending America against the busybody international bureaucrats who want to curtail our sovereignty. Helms saw to it that most of the disastrous United Nations treaties never reached the Senate floor or were defeated, including the International Criminal Court Treaty, the UN Treaty on the Rights of the Child, the UN Treaty on Women, the UN Global Warming Treaty, and the UN Biodiversity Treaty.

    Helms fought foreign aid to Communist countries, stopped extravagant handouts to the United Nations, and defeated Bill Clinton's worst diplomatic appointments.
