Lige inden valget sagde Ukip kandidaten, forfatteren Paul Weston i et interview:

I am actually predicting a war in the UK in the next twenty years. In my views white working class kids will go fight against immigrants. You don’t understand this. You are a woman. Women don’t understand war. High-testosterone men always find the reason for the war.”

Det forhindrer ikke den lokale tosseudgave af Politiken, The Guardian, i at kalde unge, arbejdsløse englændere, der protesterer og engangerer sig i foreninger som English Defence League, for “extremists plotting summer of unrest and targeting Muslim communities, rightwingers on the the streets in an increasingly violent form.” Hvis England får den borgerkrig, Weston nærer en kvalificeret frygt for, så befinder de egentlig skyldige i den forbrydelse sig et helt andet sted, end i den stadig mere desperate, arbejdsløse og voldsplagede engelske underklasse. Det er ikke en vinkel danske medier dyrker. Den dukker op ved “festlige lejligheder” som de næste “Bradford-optøjer”, som om det hele kom lige ud af den blå luft.

A record 417,000 immigrants were given the right to live in Britain permanently last year, figures showed yesterday.Of those, 203,000 were handed a British passport and full citizenship in 2009 – around one person every three minutes. The number rocketed from 129,375 – a 58 per cent rise – in just a year. Another 214,000 were given the right to settle in the UK – the first step to full citizenship.This figure soared by 40 per cent over the 12 months. – The Home Office figures showed 29 per cent of those given a passport last year were from India, Pakistan or Bangladesh. Another 27 per cent came from Africa and 17 per cent from Asia, including China and the Philippines.Gordon Brown´s timebomb. Migrants to swell Southern towns by 20% in 8 years as a UK passport is handed out every three minutes.

Sverige skriver multikulturen ind i grundloven

Förändringarna i regeringsformen innebär bland annat att ”ensamkommande flyktingbarn” till viss del nu får fler grundlagsskydd än tidigare. På samma gång omöjliggörs en politik som kräver assimilering av invandrare då dessa får grundlagsskyddade rättigheter att slippa försvenskas och lära sig det svenska språket. Ett helt nytt tillägg till regeringsformen lyder:

”Etniska, språkliga och religiösa minoriteters möjligheter att behålla och utveckla ett eget kultur och samfundsliv ska främjas.”En liknande reglering infördes 2002, men då gällde att det etniska samfundslivet ”bör” främjas. Nu är paragrafen istället tvingande.

Svenskar får samma rättigheter som illegala invandrare: Regeringsformen ändras också så att den i flera fall inte längre endast omfattar svenska medborgare. Konsekvent byts ordet ”varje medborgare” ut mot ”var och en” i den svenska författningen. På så vis omfattas invandrade utlänningar, legala såväl som illegala. Sverige skriver flerkulturens beskyttelse inn i grunnloven. Proposition 2009/10:80 En reformerad grundlag.

Ship of fools

Ombord på armadaen Ship to Gaza, et svensk venstrefløjsforetagende,  finder SVT bla. luksussocialisten Henning Mankell og riksdagesmedlem for Miljøpartiet m.m. Mehmet Kaplan, der vil bringe nødhjælp ind til et af Mellemøstens mest velstillede folk. Et faktum der aldrig rigtig er formidlet af den europæiske venstrefløj og dens journalister, da det ville rasere deres verdensbillede. Derfor tror vi alle at Gazaboerne lever i den dybeste nød, samtidigt med at vi financierer dem med milliarder af euros, hvordan det så går op.  Men sultne og fattige mennesker fører ikke krig med Gazaboernes hyppighed, de tænker på mad og penge. Israels havpatruljering handler naturligvis om våben. Det er kun 6 måneder siden en stor iransk våbenforsendelse blev opbragt ved Cypern, så Henning Mankell kommer til at vende hjem til sine svenske besiddelser uden at have følt sig helt vellykket god. Melanie Phillips skriver med nogen giftighed om “nødhjælpen”:

The world’s first gourmet starvation experience

As the latest absurd flotilla of fools – eight boats carrying no fewer than 700-800 activists — stages another confrontation with Israel to draw the world’s attention to the ‘humanitarian crisis’ in Gaza, Tom Gross writes a timely piece pointing out that Gaza’s shops and markets are full. In a piece of particularly happy serendipity, Gaza’s first Olympic standard swimming pool was inaugurated yesterday. But as Gross writes, the western media dutifully pump out the party line that Gaza is starving:

What they won’t tell you about are the fancy new restaurants and swimming pools of Gaza, or about the wind surfing competitions on Gaza beaches, or the Strip’s crowded shops and markets. Many Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza live a middle class (and in some cases an upper class) lifestyle that western journalists refuse to report on because it doesn’t fit with the simplistic story they were sent to write.

… If you pop into the Roots Club in Gaza, according to the Lonely Planet guidebook, you can ‘dine on steak au poivre and chicken cordon bleu’. The restaurant’s website in Arabic gives a window into middle class dining and the lifestyle of Hamas officials in Gaza. And here it is in English, for all the journalists, UN types and NGO staff who regularly frequent this and other nice Gaza restaurants (but don’t tell their readers about them).

And here is a promotional video of the club restaurant. In case anyone doubts the authenticity of this video, I just called the club in Gaza City and had a nice chat with the manager who proudly confirmed business is booming and many Palestinians and international guests are dining there.

But according to Greta Berlin, of the Free Gaza Movement, “the flotilla intends to break the blockade of the Gaza Strip and tell the world that Israel has no right to starve 1.5 million Palestinians.”

Surely the world’s first gourmet starvation experience?

*The ship of fools is an allegory that has long been a fixture in Western literature and art. The allegory depicts a vessel populated by human inhabitants who are deranged, frivolous, or oblivious, passengers aboard a ship without a pilot, and seemingly ignorant of their own direction. This concept makes up the framework of the 15th century book Ship of Fools (1494) by Sebastian Brant, which served as the inspiration for Bosch’s famous painting, Ship of Fools: a ship–an entire fleet at first–sets off from Basel to the paradise of fools. In literary and artistic compositions of the 15th and 16th centuries, the cultural motif of the ship of fools also served to parody the ‘ark of salvation’ (as the Catholic Church was styled).
