France is staring into the abyss

A 14-year-old pupil has been arrested after shooting a headteacher and a teacher at a school in southern France. On Monday, the suspect smuggled a hunting rifle inside a guitar case into the Joseph Lakanal school in Aubagne before opening fire. Mercifully, he was quickly subdued by a member of staff before he could shoot anyone else. The two injuries he inflicted were not life-threatening. The worst was avoided – but only narrowly. The investigation is now being handled by counter-terror police.

France in total chaos – cars drifting around fires, barricades in the street. If this generation is the future of France and Europe, we should be very worried. Zero values, zero patriotism. Only chaos, destruction and anarchy. https://t.co/dtZqH221wI

A 6-Year-Old Black Boy Shot His Teacher—The Bodycam Video Is Worse

I think I’m a pretty good person. I don’t steal. I don’t cut in line. I pick up after my dog. I open the door for ladies. I don’t talk loudly in movie theaters. I work hard. I’ve never cheated on my wife. I try to be polite. I put my shopping cart back, I don’t litter, and I pay my taxes.

All in all, I sound like a pretty good guy. But here’s the thing….

All that stuff…it’s a pretty low bar for a person to be considered good in a civilized society. None of that stuff is anything I should be patting myself on the back for.

There Are Almost Too Many Things to Investigate Rep. Ilhan Omar For

Sure, on paper, Rep. Ilhan Omar is a radical leftist crossed with a Islamic activist (a fairly typical profile on the contemporary Left) but in some ways she’s a throwback to the kind of insanely corrupt Democrat who would just commit crimes to see what he could get away with.

‘CRYING WAS ROUTINE:’ Freeland reveals Trudeau’s woke cabinet culture

OTTAWA — Crying ministers, comforting hugs and public scoldings over politically incorrect language were apparently part of life in Justin Trudeau’s cabinet, according to former deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland’s new memoir.

In Unreliable Boyfriend, released Tuesday, Freeland describes the atmosphere inside the Trudeau government, including an occasion when the former prime minister reprimanded a female minister for using the word “crazy.”

Greta Thunberg Joins French Protest

More than 160,000 schoolchildren, students and trade unionists have marched in cities across France as protests over high school education continued into a third week and many demonstrators denounced policing tactics.

Riot police fired teargas at the end of Tuesday’s marches in Nantes and near the Montparnasse area of Paris, but most of the demonstrations over teacher shortages, overcrowded classes and crumbling school buildings held in cities including Lyon, Lille and Marseille were peaceful.

The Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg joined an early morning protest outside the Lycée Paul Éluard in the Paris suburb of Saint-Denis.

May she grab a gas grenade.

Professional protester Greta Thunberg has joined the third-world riots in France because of course. https://t.co/gLTBjHF4ks

Tasha Kheiriddin: Carney struggles to know if he should back Trump on Russia, or not

Prime Minister Mark Carney has built his political reputation on being the adult in the room — and a man at ease in the corridors of power. He’s a former central banker with friends in high places, a guy who understands how the world works, and, supposedly, a leader who can handle U.S. President Donald Trump.

But this weekend, Carney demonstrated that having world leaders on speed dial and knowing how to deal with them are two very different things. On Sunday, he thanked Trump for his leadership in securing an alleged “energy ceasefire” between Russia and Ukraine. The two countries have been relentlessly bombing each other’s energy infrastructure, and with winter approaching, the consequences for people left in the cold could be dire.

Defending European Civilization

As many of my readers know, my thoughts on modern Europe are essentially based on historical comparatism, and particularly on the similarities between today’s West and the crisis of the Roman Republic during the first century BC.1 Mass migration, declining birth rates, social polarization, the implosion of the family, the decline of traditional religion, asymmetric wars, globalization, the crisis of cultural identity, insecurity, the transformation of a participatory political system into an oligarchy, and populism—none of this is unique to the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, but can also be found at the end of the Roman Republic. The consequences were first an endemic political and economic crisis, then a period of disorder and civil war, and finally the rise to power of a conservative, plebiscitary authoritarian regime as the only means of mediating between opposing ethnic and political groups—and at this point, I find it difficult to see how France, Germany, or even Europe as a whole can escape such a development.

The “Stolen Lands” of the New World: A Psychological and Historical Archaeology of a Powerful Idea

From Perth, Australia to Santiago de Chile to Nuuk, Greenland, to Oahu, Hawaii’s one metropolis, societies have been wrestling with something often called the “indigenous land question” in recent years. Descendants of the peoples who inhabited these places before the arrival of European, Asian and African settlers are demanding and often receiving grants of land, financial compensation and special political rights, jurisdiction and priority access to finite resources like wild fish to compensate for a putative “genocide” they supposedly suffered at the hands of early Old World settlers over the past half a millennium.

John Cleese Just Humiliated Humza Yousaf in Debate Over Islam’s Incompatibility With Western Values

Former First Minister of Scotland Humza Yousaf doesn’t think people in the United Kingdom should be able to debate the merits and value of Islam, because they’re “asserting that Muslims are not compatible with life in Britain.” That’s because they’re not. They have made it illegal to fly the Union Jack and St. George’s flag, they are behind the skyrocketing number of rapes and sex trafficking of British women and girls, and they intimidate British Jews, pray in the street, and undermine British Culture.

With talk of a hypothetical American invasion, Canadians should think about nonviolent resistance

Prime Minister Mark Carney claimed, in an interview on Sept. 23, that it would be “irresponsible” for Canada not to prepare for the “extreme tail risk” of U.S. military action against Canada. He refused, however, to provide any details.

How would Canada respond to an invasion? A Globe and Mail article from Jan. 20 provides the answer. The military has apparently developed a contingency model for the unlikely event of a U.S. invasion. Canada would mount a military defence, but it would be breached within two to seven days. Resistance would then shift to an insurgency on the Afghan model, intended to impose high costs on the invading force. Insurgents would engage in hit-and-run tactics, sabotage, ambushes and planting improvised explosive devices.

What Socialism Has Wrought in Cuba Will Be a Nightmare to Unwind

For reasons obvious to most readers of this column, I’m currently doing lots of podcast and radio interviews about Cuba. It’s been a timely subject for most of this year, though right at the moment there isn’t a lot happening which would augur a major transformation of that “imprisoned island,” as President Kennedy called it.

It’s timely, because everybody understands that the status quo in Cuba can’t endure for much longer. The current regime in Cuba is running out of time.

Billions more for defence, but Canada’s military still faces an old budget squeeze

The Canadian military is on the verge of another round of internal belt-tightening, despite an enormous influx of cash from the federal government, CBC News has learned.

It appears to be a combination of past and current budget initiatives colliding with the expectations and demands associated with the gush of defence spending.

The Department of National Defence has been told to focus its billions of extra dollars on priority areas, including the purchase of much-needed new combat equipment.

Selma Blair’s lawyers seek leniency while calling her ‘gold standard’ — how no-nonsense NYC judge fired back

Lawyers for A-lister-chomping actress Selma Blair claimed to a Queens judge she deserved a break after her second bizarre mid-air meltdown because she is “the gold standard’’ — but the no-nonsense jurist told them to fugghedaboutit.

“Consider her body of work and what she’s done for people,” said one of Blair’s two lawyers, Joshua Reitzas, at the 54-year-old “Cruel Intentions” star’s arraignment on assault charges Monday night.

“This is someone we should look up to. She is the gold standard,” Reitas said.

Her 2nd incident? Maybe she should take the bus.
