P.S. Tommy Robinson has been touring here in the US, and is allegedly preparing to make a presentation to a group of senior US officials. He says this is bigger than his address at Cambridge.

The origins of the U.S. and the western civilization were Christian. You can see in real time what's happening in Europe when Christianity has less influence. You don't end up with a secular utopia where people are free and respect each other's beliefs, you end up with a vacuum that's filled immediately by leftism, Marxism, communism, and radical Islam.

Heaven for a devout atheist is located somewhere in a Christian country.


Europe is where fascism and communism began- Christianity has been on the ropes for a long time. And considering that the history of Europe is nothing but wars- many religious- that's probably a good thing.

More people died in 20th century from governments killing their own people than all the previous centuries combined. There's common theme among deaths in the Soviet Union, China, Germany, and Cambodia in the 20th century and it had nothing to do with wars of religion.

Communism is very much a religious dogma, a toxic brand of secularism. This would also apply to Nazism as well, a secular ideology rooted in the occult (see Blavatsky and the Thule Society).

They have a Nazi obsession with the American West theme woven into this season's Dark Winds storyline. You don't see that in your average TV drama.

AIPAC spent $22 million on these elections in Illinois alone.

Quote:
The American Israel Public Affairs Committee failed on Tuesday to secure wins in the two Illinois US House primaries it invested the most money in, the latest electoral flop for the pro-Israel lobbying organization whose brand has become increasingly noxious to Democratic voters amid Israel's genocidal assault on Gaza.

In Illinois' 7th and 9th Congressional Districts, AIPAC spent millions backing Chicago treasurer Melissa Conyears-Ervin, who finished second, and Democratic State Sen. Laura Fine, who finished third. In the latter race, AIPAC pivoted from initially attacking Evanston Mayor Daniel Bisswho ultimately wonto concentrate on defeating Justice Democrats-backed Kat Abughazaleh.

Besides being Jewish, what would be the Democratic Party's objections over picking Pennsylvania Governor, Josh Shapiro, as their candidate?
