The charge taken up here is one of the oldest, and at the moment one of the most effective. It holds that Christianity never truly cleansed the sacred world of the nations: that she came late to ground already holy, condemned its gods with one hand, and quietly kept their worship with the other, so that beneath the Christian names the old cults go on, renamed and absorbed but never converted. Against this I mean to show what the charge cannot see, that the Church, where she is allowed to be herself, has the power to heal and to purify fallen worship. She does this neither by pretending the old cults were harmless nor by flattening the world into the dead matter that the secular age prefers to manage. She does it by judging the idols, by casting the demons out of the places they had seized, by blessing the creation they had only counterfeited, by praying for the dead instead of feeding them, and by handing a man’s whole world back to the God who made it.

Did Christianity Steal from Paganism?, by Brother Nilus - The Unz Review - (One of the best insights I have read. - CL)
The Racism Police - Vox Popoli
Rape, assault, and theft aren’t considered crimes in the UK anymore, not when they’ve got emergency racisms to stop!
The furore over two-tier policing intensified last night after a supermarket boss accused officers of treating a false claim of racism more seriously than rampant violence by shoplifters. Iceland founder Sir Malcolm Walker says ‘two-tier policing isn’t just happening on the streets’ as he revealed cops rushed to one of his stores three minutes after a phoney accusation of racism was made against a shop supervisor.....
Existence and collective self-defense has never been a sin and it cannot be a crime. The crime here is being committed by the Clown Worlders, who have openly admitted they are trying to stamp out the existence of specific peoples, religions, and cultures. And remember that every single individual who has been accused of “racism” and “white supremacy” has been set up and falsely accused by the most evil creatures on the planet, literal demons and cannibals, who are anti-human and in whom Jesus Christ himself declared there was no truth.
Equality is a lie. Racism is an inversion. Civil rights are neither granted by God nor guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. The Enlightenment was constructed upon an equivocation. Do not be deceived.
The Finding in the Folio - Vox Popoli - (Shakespeare was a plagiarist fake! - CL)
Dennis McCarthy offers further proof that Ben Jonson, and a number of his colleagues, knew very well that Thomas North was the original author of most of the Shakespeare plays.
As we shall see in this article, Jonson’s celebrated ode contains a shocking secret—a dead giveaway to the true origin of the canon. In other words, the answer to the most significant literary question in history—who was the original author of Shakespeare’s plays?—has been sitting prominently in the front of the First Folio for the last 400 years. Jonson was not being remotely subtle…
As I frequently point out with no hyperbole: the second greatest plagiarist in history has not borrowed half as much, perhaps not one-tenth as much, from another writer as Shakespeare has from North......
It’s interesting to see how long ago writers were having to skirt the mainstream narrative in order to avoid getting canceled.
Ben Jonson's Ode to Shakespeare: The Stunning 400-Year-Old Secret at the Front of the First Folio
This is a big day for All the Mysteries That Remain, as we are about to solve one of the more puzzling problems involving the true origin of Shakespeare’s plays. I’ve tried to write the article so that it is easily understandable to lay people—even as it answers questions that have vexed the most engrossed of Shakespeare researchers, both orthodox and heretical (like my dear friends over at Who Wrote Shakespeare.)
In 1623, Ben Jonson wrote one of the most famous odes one poet ever crafted for another—To the Memory of My Beloved the author Master William Shakespeare, and what he hath left us. The poem was prominently placed at the beginning of the first official collection of Shakespeare's plays known as the First Folio. Yet some eight years later, the poet Leonard Digges wrote a scathing rebuttal to Jonson’s ode, denouncing it as an attack against Shakespeare.1 He was so furious that he wanted Jonson's supposedly abusive poem removed for the publication of the Second Folio (1632)—and replaced with Digges’s own defense of the Stratford playwright, answering Jonson’s insults “point by point.”2 In 1693, the renowned Shakespeare enthusiast John Dryden responded similarly to Digges, labeling Jonson’s poem as “an insolent, sparing, and invidious panegyric.”3 And Brian Vickers has noted that Dryden’s “judgment has been echoed many times.”4
But no one has been able to explain what was so insolent and invidious about the poem—until now. As we shall see in this article, Jonson’s celebrated ode contains a shocking secret—a dead giveaway to the true origin of the canon. In other words, the answer to the most significant literary question in history—who was the original author of Shakespeare’s plays?—has been sitting prominently in the front of the First Folio for the last 400 years. Jonson was not being remotely subtle. And, at the end of this article, you are almost certainly going to be asking yourself the same question I think about daily: HOW ON EARTH DID EVERYONE MISS THIS?
Israel Asks For A Guaranteed Share Of U.S. Weapon Purchases – Moon of Alabama
The colonial expansion of Israel is openly subsidized by the U.S. with currently $3.5 billion per year. Most of that money is bound to Israel’s purchase of U.S. made weapons. The stipend is controlled by Congress and must pass the yearly budget review.
The Israeli government is trying to change the stipend into a more lucrative racket.
It has suggested to replace the yearly subsidy by a ‘deeper military cooperation’ which is code for the guaranteed U.S. purchases of Israeli made weapons and continuous profits for Israel’s weapon manufacturers. To institute the new scheme Congress will pass a law that will integrate Israel’s military-industrial complex into U.S. procurement and production lines.
Israel's Meddling MUST BE STOPPED - Denninger
Even the DIA -- the part of the DOD that monitors intelligence-related threats -- now classifies Israel as among the most-serious threats to the United States when it comes to espionage.
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon is increasingly concerned about Israel ramping up its spying on the U.S., recently raising the counterintelligence threat level from America’s top ally in the Middle East to the highest level, according to two U.S. officials and one former U.S. official.
That's not a "fringe conspiracy theory" it is the assessment of the Pentagon itself.
We must cut said ties. Period.
That's not a "fringe conspiracy theory" it is the assessment of the Pentagon itself.
We must cut said ties. Period.
America must make its defense-related decisions by Americans, for Americans, and for no other purpose.
All so-called "allies" who engage in this sort of conduct, which is not the same thing, obviously, as consensual and knowing sharing of information related to joint operations and interests, must be entirely blackballed in all respects by the State Department and their so-called "allied" status revoked.
There has to be a price for this sort of misconduct and that is the clear and obvious price that must be enforced -- and we must, as a nation, make clear that to be our ally you may not be engaged in such conduct. If you do so then you're out -- period.
Work, Brothers - Vox Popoli
Russia appears to be gearing up for something, if Putin’s coded message to her soldiers is any guide:
Rather than engage with Zelensky’s proposals, Putin turned away from the letter entirely. He said the ones to be addressed were Russia’s combatants and soldiers at the line of contact, telling them:
The country is proud of you and places its hopes on you. We should address not the authors of this letter, nor lovers of the epistolary genre, but our fighters on the front line.
He then closed with the phrase: “Work, brothers!”
To understand the import of that phrase you need to be introduced to Magomed Nurbagandov:
Now the limits of the US military have been clearly established, it makes sense that Russia no longer feels the need to maintain the holding pattern it has been in for the last three years. And unlike his people, who are primarily focused on Ukraine, and to a lesser extent the European Union, Putin understands that their real enemy is Clown World.
The Planned Merger of the U.S. and Zionist Israel: Evil Begets Evil - LewRockwell
Can you imagine the U.S. and Israeli militaries merging as one? Can you imagine a melding of the two most brutal, torturous, murderous, and evil militaries on earth, joining forces in every aspect of war and genocidal slaughter? Can you imagine that the heinous U.S. Congress is putting together by next year, a “National ‘Defense’ Authorization Act, (NDAA) that will give Zionist Israel nearly unlimited power as a partner in AI, quantum, machine learning, autonomous systems, directed energy, advance sensing, cyber defense, electronic warfare, digital resilience, biotechnology, biomanufacturing, medical defense, network integration, data fusion, contested logistics, defense industrial base cooperation, manufacturing, co-production, and any other emerging technologies as jointly agreed by these two military monsters?
There is no need to imagine, as it is already in the works by the House of Representatives, hidden in Section 224 of the 2027 NDAA (beginning on page 40) entitled “United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative.” The entirety of this insane 505 page document can be viewed by opening the link above, and all of Section 224 is below:
To understand the ramifications of something this extreme is to understand that this government has already sold out this country to the Zionist faction of Israel. These are the psychotic genocidal monsters who rape and kill children as an act of pleasure. Do you really want them to have such immense control over your lives? Do you not become incensed at the very thought of turning over this country to a foreign interest; and one whose agendas border on the deranged?
Read the open-ended language in this section and come to your own conclusions. This is absolutely maniacal, and rests on the premise that this country does not belong to you any longer. It makes clear that those you accepted as masters (claimed ‘representatives) are attempting to sell wholesale this country’s military to those who now seemingly already own this government.
You see, nearly the entirety of this political class and government are all Israelis now!

Comprehensive Failure - Vox Popoli
No wonder Iran sees no reason to rush into a peace deal. The US military failed in every aspect of the recent war:
CNN found that Iran has now unblocked 50 out of the 69 tunnel entrances struck by the US and Israel at 18 underground missile facilities. Iran has repaired other parts of the bases as well, including roads that the US and Israel bombed to prevent missile launchers from using them. Satellite images show almost all these craters have now been filled, and at two sites, even repaved.......
- Regime change failed
- Nuclear prevention failed
- Defense of Arab bases failed
- Defense of Israel failed
- Destruction of military capabilities failed
- Strait of Hormuz blocked
About the only thing the US did successfully was to not lose any warships. Which, one notes, could have much more easily been accomplished by not sending them to the Persian Gulf in the first place. And not only did the USA fail in its objectives, but it ended the conflict worse off than when it began.
That is, by every historical measure, a defeat. It’s not an existential one, nor is it necessarily the last word on the international conflict. But the history books will record this as being a defeat of the USA by Iran.
The Great Fiction of 1989 - Vox Popoli
It’s not hard to understand why the Chinese have absolutely no trust of Clown World or its pet media once one learns the truth of Tiananmen Square. And it does tend to call other Western media reports of China into question.
The US reportedly contacted key leaders among the protesting students and made them an offer—don’t wind down, go harder on the protesting and we’ll give you US passports, CIA-run safe passage out of China, a new home in the richest country in the world, and enrolment in top US universities—Harvard, Princeton, Columbia. Now that was an offer hard to refuse.....
One witness, Larry Wortzel, watched protesters attack a military vehicle and noted how well it was organized—someone had definitely trained them. “This was clearly a tactic rehearsed and even practiced among the demonstrators, since it was used in the same way in separate places around the city,” he wrote.
“All verified eyewitness accounts say that the students who remained in the square when troops arrived were allowed to leave peacefully,” said the Washington Post’s Jay Mathews.
Now this is where it gets strange. The next day, a very different story appeared from a few foreign embassies saying that 10,000 people had been killed. This tale said the students in the square had not left. They had stayed and been massacred with machine guns, their bodies pushed into piles with bulldozers, and then incinerated by troops with flamethrowers. This gruesome horror story, supported by no evidence at all, is now viewed by eastern and western historians as entirely fictional.
New docs reveal what really happened in Beijing, 1989
NEWLY UNEARTHED DOCUMENTS today reveal what really happened in Tiananmen Square, Beijing, in 1989—how the protests were prepared, how teams caused them to escalate, and how they really came to an end.
And they provide the most detailed account yet about one of the biggest hoaxes in modern history—one so successful that the perpetrators, an ocean away, later boasted on YouTube of being “the ghosts in the machine” who were “pulling the strings” in what was erroneously reported about events in Beijing.
Key points:
* There was no “Tiananmen Square massacre” in 1989;
* US units started training Chinese protesters in 1988;
* Their cover was a NED-financed “magazine publishing” group in Beijing;
* The CIA provided well-equipped offices for anti-government activists;
* US military psyops specialists trained protesters to escalate street battles;
* The US gave places in top universities such as Harvard and Princeton to co-operative student leaders;
* The fake “Tiananman Square massacre” narrative was emerging in late May;
* After June 4, the fictional story of the “Tiananmen Square massacre” (10,000 killed as soldiers machine-gunned students) was distributed by US, UK and Australian diplomats;
* But many consul staff and journalists knew the massacre never happened before the end of the first week.
* British Ambassador Alan Donald disowned his debunked “10,000 massacred in Tiananmen Square” allegation, but AFP, BBC, DW, HKFP and other media continue to push it.
