Jon Rappaport:

I’ve often cited the groundbreaking review, “Is US health really the best in the world?” Author, Dr. Barbara Starfield, Johns Hopkins School of Public Health. Publisher: The Journal of the American Medical Association, July 26, 2000.

Starfield concluded that, every year in the US, the medical system directly kills 225,000 people. 106,000 die as a result of medicines the FDA has approved as safe. The other 119,000 die as a result of treatment in hospitals.

Add it up. That’s 2.25 million deaths per decade caused by the US medical system.

Now for the question: how many of those deaths… do you think doctors…voluntarily admit…to families of the dead patients…are medically caused?

I’ll tell you.

None.

In every case, a lie was cooked up. “I’m sorry, but the disease suddenly accelerated…”

That’s 2.25 million lies per decade about the actual cause of death.

But people continue to worship at the feet of doctors and medical experts.

Many consider Solzhenitsyn an anti-Semite.  Certain of his works are hard to get in the West or remain untranslated on that account.

But hatred of any group cannot be imputed to a man simply because he refuses to be intimidated from recounting the facts of history as they actually occurred. Such imputation is no more than censorship by another name.

To hate someone or something is of no account –  in terms of political rights – unless one urges their destruction….or, worse, enacts it.

Let us not forget that the greatest holocaust in modern history (in sheer numbers) was targeted at Russian Orthodox Christianity by militant atheistic communism, created and funded by the Western (Anglo-Zionist) capitalist powers.

Now, that is hatred that merits naming and denunciation.

But where are the memorials for those victims and where is the naming and shaming of those perpetrators?

In this magnificent address, Solzhenitsyn shows that he very well knows where culpability for the “New World Order” lies, but he knows also that ultimately the power of this dispensation rests on every man’s consent to its lies and intimidation.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn in 1983

More than half a century ago, while I was still a child, I recall hearing a number of older people offer the following explanation for the great disasters that had befallen Russia: Men have forgotten God; that’s why all this has happened.

Since then I have spent well-nigh fifty years working on the history of our Revolution; in the process I have read hundreds of books, collected hundreds of personal testimonies, and have already contributed eight volumes of my own toward the effort of clearing away the rubble left by that upheaval. But if I were asked today to formulate as concisely as possible the main cause of the ruinous Revolution that swallowed up some sixty million of our people, I could not put it more accurately than to repeat: Men have forgotten God; that’s why all this has happened.

What is more, the events of the Russian Revolution can only be understood now, at the end of the century, against the background of what has since occurred in the rest of the world. What emerges here is a process of universal significance. And if I were called upon to identify briefly the principal trait of the entire twentieth century, here too, I would be unable to find anything more precise and pithy than to repeat once again: Men have forgotten God.

The failings of human consciousness, deprived of its divine dimension, have been a determining factor in all the major crimes of this century. The first of these was World War I, and much of our present predicament can be traced back to it. It was a war (the memory of which seems to be fading) when Europe, bursting with health and abundance, fell into a rage of self-mutilation which could not but sap its strength for a century or more, and perhaps forever. The only possible explanation for this war is a mental eclipse among the leaders of Europe due to their lost awareness of a Supreme Power above them. Only a godless embitterment could have moved ostensibly Christian states to employ poison gas, a weapon so obviously beyond the limits of humanity……..

In its past, Russia did know a time when the social ideal was not fame, or riches, or material success, but a pious way of life. Russia was then steeped in an Orthodox Christianity which remained true to the Church of the first centuries. The Orthodoxy of that time knew how to safeguard its people under the yoke of a foreign occupation that lasted more than two centuries, while at the same time fending off iniquitous blows from the swords of Western crusaders. ……..

But in the 17th century Russian Orthodoxy was gravely weakened by an internal schism. In the 18th, the country was shaken by Peter’s forcibly imposed transformations, which favored the economy, the state, and the military at the expense of the religious spirit and national life. And along with this lopsided Petrine enlightenment, Russia felt the first whiff of secularism; its subtle poisons permeated the educated classes in the course of the 19th century and opened the path to Marxism. By the time of the Revolution, faith had virtually disappeared in Russian educated circles; and amongst the uneducated, its health was threatened.

It was Dostoevsky, once again, who drew from the French Revolution and its seeming hatred of the Church the lesson that “revolution must necessarily begin with atheism.” That is absolutely true.

But the world had never before known a godlessness as organized, militarized, and tenaciously malevolent as that practiced by Marxism. Within the philosophical system of Marx and Lenin, and at the heart of their psychology, hatred of God is the principal driving force, more fundamental than all their political and economic pretensions. Militant atheism is not merely incidental or marginal to Communist policy; it is not a side effect, but the central pivot.

The 1920’s in the USSR witnessed an uninterrupted procession of victims and martyrs amongst the Orthodox clergy. Two metropolitans were shot, one of whom, Veniamin of Petrograd, had been elected by the popular vote of his diocese. Patriarch Tikhon himself passed through the hands of the Cheka-GPU and then died under suspicious circumstances. Scores of archbishops and bishops perished. Tens of thousands of priests, monks, and nuns, pressured by the Chekists to renounce the Word of God, were tortured, shot in cellars, sent to camps, exiled to the desolate tundra of the far North, or turned out into the streets in their old age without food or shelter. All these Christian martyrs went unswervingly to their deaths for the faith; instances of apostasy were few and far between. For tens of millions of laymen access to the Church was blocked, and they were forbidden to bring up their children in the Faith: religious parents were wrenched from their children and thrown into prison, while the children were turned from the faith by threats and lies…

….

Imperceptibly, through decades of gradual erosion, the meaning of life in the West has ceased to be seen as anything more lofty than the “pursuit of happiness, “a goal that has even been solemnly guaranteed by constitutions. …… If a blasphemous film about Jesus is shown throughout the United States, reputedly one of the most religious countries in the world, or a major newspaper publishes a shameless caricature of the Virgin Mary, what further evidence of godlessness does one need? When external rights are completely unrestricted, why should one make an inner effort to restrain oneself from ignoble acts?

….. The contemporary developed West thus demonstrates by its own example that human salvation can be found neither in the profusion of material goods nor in merely making money……

…. The social theories that promised so much have demonstrated their bankruptcy, leaving us at a dead end. The free people of the West could reasonably have been expected to realize that they are beset · by numerous freely nurtured falsehoods, and not to allow lies to be foisted upon them so easily. All attempts to find a way out of the plight of today’s world are fruitless unless we redirect our consciousness, in repentance, to the Creator of all: without this, no exit will be illumined, and we shall seek it in vain. The resources we have set aside for ourselves are too impoverished for the task.

…..The laws of physics and physiology will never reveal the indisputable manner in which the Creator constantly, day in and day out, participates in the life of each of us, unfailingly granting us the energy of existence; when this assistance leaves us, we die. And in the life of our entire planet, the Divine Spirit surely moves with no less force: this we must grasp in our dark and terrible hour.

To the ill-considered hopes of the last two centuries, which have reduced us to insignificance and brought us to the brink of nuclear and non-nuclear death, we can propose only a determined quest for the warm hand of God, which we have so rashly and self-confidently spurned. Only in this way can our eyes be opened to the errors of this unfortunate twentieth century and our bands be directed to setting them right. There is nothing else to cling to in the landslide: the combined vision of all the thinkers of the Enlightenment amounts to nothing.

Our five continents are caught in a whirlwind. But it is during trials such as these that the highest gifts of the human spirit are manifested. If we perish and lose this world, the fault will be ours alone. “

Whatever you think about India’s new PM, BJP favorite, Narendra Modi, he’s already done a few things to make supporters pleased and detractors less skeptical:

1.  Modi has launched a national cleanliness drive to end the shameful public health nightmare of open defecation in India.

This was a cause dear to Mahatma Gandhi.  And on this blog, as well, I’ve written often that the scandal of Indian public hygiene should be the number one priority in India, not arms races:

“Cleaning House,” Alternet, 2004 (also published at Himal, South Asia)

Interview with D. Murali at Whackonomics, The Hindu (March 2008):

“Public sanitation is India’s number one problem. We have the hubris to consider ourselves a fledgling superpower on the basis of the accomplishments of the professional classes and some nuclear weapons.

But we can’t seem to keep our streets free from filth. When we show enough respect for each other to clean up after ourselves and make our cities liveable, we will have accomplished several things at once.

We will have recovered our self-respect, we will have given dignity to even the “lowest” manual labor, and we will have eliminated the cause of many of our most widespread diseases. Beauty is as vital to the soul as food is to the body. Without it, we subsist, but we do not have a culture.

Because it despises physical work and the body, Indian society overvalues intellectual work, leaving not enough people to create those un-intellectual, unglamorous, petty businesses that create jobs and drive real economic growth.

So, for me, our first area of focus should be acquiring the self-confidence and humility to criticize and correct this area of darkness in our society.”

2.  Modi has rightly snubbed the grand-standing  US  Attorney Preet Bharara (Democrat).

3.  Modi has quickly resolved the confusion around the long-term visa facilities offered to overseas Indians, by declaring that the PIO card will be a permanent life-long visa that does not require yearly police registration.

Hooray!

Khatam ho gaya babudom?

Well, let’s wait and see….but so far, so good.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn:

“You must understand that the leading Bolsheviks who took over Russia were not Russians.

They hated Russians. They hated Christians.

Driven by ethnic hatred they tortured and slaughtered millions of Russians without a shred of human remorse.

More of my countrymen suffered horrific crimes at their blood stained hands than any people or nation ever suffered in the entirety of human history. It cannot be overstated.

Bolshevism committed the greatest human slaughter of all time.

The fact that most of the world is ignorant or uncaring about this enormous crime is proof that the global media is in the hands of its perpetrators.”

Other sources:

“Soviets admit Stalin killed 50 million,” The Sunday Times, London, April 17, 1988.

61.9 million people were killed by the Soviet communists from 1917 to 1987, writes R. J. Rummel, “Lethal Politics: Soviet Genocide and Mass Murder Since 1917″ (Transaction, 1990).

Knickerless schticks – also known as bare-a**ed lies – are all over the Internet.

One such cess-pool of Zionist disinformation, posing as the living waters of Christian truth-telling is the subject/target of the following revealing comments at a site called  the Phora, of which I know nothing except that on this occasion at least they’ve struck a home-run of epic proportions.

Be warned, the sentiments and language below are frank and non-PC and I do not subscribe to all of them.

I do not consider Jews as a people  or culture “demonic,” only excessively tribal and brain-washed (a historical contingency, I suppose);

I dislike the use of the word “n**” (first time I’ve heard it, but I can guess its meaning), although I agree with the larger argument being made;

and I think “whites”  are certainly biologically viable….as long they part from the (white) Jewish ruling class’s party line and start treating non-whites as fellow-sufferers from the malady of oligarchy-gone-mad rather than untermenschen in a melanin-free gulag ruled by a consortium of corporations, regional governments, and private police.

TAC refers to The American Conservative, a paleo-conservative magazine.

The article Fade posted, by n**-hatin’ uber Zionist Nicholas Stix, is in actuality little more than a jig of glee danced by someone for whom Priority One is hands off Israel.

The irony is that this was TAC’s modus operandi. By never wishing to blow what it saw as its opportunity to shape policy from the inside, TAC took great pains to phrase its criticism of Israel as criticism of Israel, and in the gentlest and most reasonable of language…….

…The run of the magazine amounted to a few years’ worth of mild chiding of people already firmly in control of government – people who never considered the magazine’s staff to be any better than Holocaust-denying white trash to begin with.Taki and Buchanan’s only hope would’ve been to step up their harshness exponentially….but they didn’t want to risk the hollers of anti-Semite! and Nazi! that waking up America would have certainly entailed. Too bad. 

Of course, to Stix and those of his genre, any criticism at all was tantamount to little more than “Die Juden, er, Neocons, sind unser Unglueck!”….although interestingly enough, anything short of printing boat tickets back to Africa was equivalent to TAC caving in on race without even putting up a fight.

That’s Zionist “realism” for you:

TAC failed because it was a national-affairs magazine that dealt with the ever-widening Middle East firestorm threatening to explode into WW3, instead of dealing sensibly with the issue of Leroy, his violent demeanor, and the need for a free society to sterilize him.

Buchanan has a scathing new article up about Israel.

Yes, of course he does!….now, a day late and dollar short, with his magazine deader than vaudeville and the foreign-policy dominoes already falling one after the other!

Has anyone bothered with a direct correspondence with this man? Shall we passively sit around waiting for him to “get racial”? Fade?

Mr. Stix (not his Christian name, I assume) should probably be seeking employment at American Renaissance, fomenting Race War between Whites, Blacks, and Mexicans while denying or distorting any information that links our Elder Brothers in Faith and the upcoming WWIII (their title, not mine).As for the ‘neocon’ business – what cowardice that was! Is Judith Miller, who ran the WMD stories on the front page of the NYT, a ‘neocon’? No. She’s not a liberal, either, though she poses as one: the whole NYT ‘poses’ as a liberal publication. But when both parties: the Sulzbergers, Rosental, and Miller, were faced with the difficult journalistic decision – tell the truth or betray America to Jewish interests – they didn’t even blink.White House falsified documents don’t have any impression on world politics unless papers of record disseminate them to the world. The whole war on Iraq was NOT a “Neocon” thing – it was a Jewish thing, with Jews on both sides of the ideological line working together to bring the highest quality disinformation to the goyim.

Now it seems that the paper trail leads to Michael Ledeen. What makes me want to give up is, people will still insist that this has something to do with the fact that he is either a rightist, a leftist, a libertarian, an advocate for democracy, or some other mask in his traveling trunk. ……..

[Lila: This is an excessive generalization, but not entirely unwarranted by the facts, which demonstrate Jewish self-interest behind practically every position taken by major Jewish media figures.]

“Ledeen concocts it, The “White House” (Wolfowtiz, Perle, Frum, Feith) sells it to the President, the New York Times broadcasts it to the news, and Sulla (or those grown from the same vat, i.e. half our population) enters into a war frenzy, hysterically grasping the latest set of Jewish lies and heaping volcanic scorn on any who would dare question.

…Whites: probably not biologically viable.”

Fortunately,  I found this Bloomberg piece by Matt Levine on the sheer nuttiness of the prosecution’s case against Martoma, Boca Raton Mallu kuttan-turned Gordan Gekko wannabe-turned-Zio-fall-guy.

Mr. Levine’s eminently sensible piece makes me entertain the possibility that not all New York Jewish journalists are shameless, ethnocentric, goy-hating race supremacist water-carriers for their tribe’s financial criminals.

Oh, I forgot. There’s the admirable  Matthew Goldstein too, who did pursue the SAC case from the start.

 “The argument is that Martoma, a crafty computer villain who once changed the clock on his computer to send an e-mail, knew how to erase all traces of a different e-mail both from his own computer and also from the sender’s computer and from all servers and networks everywhere so that the FBI can’t find it no matter how hard they look. We know he can fool the FBI’s best and brightest because he once changed the clock on his dorm-room PC. You could only make this argument if you have no idea how computers work, or if, more likely, you’re relying on a judge who has no idea how computers work. Nuts.

The thing is, there are crooks in the financial industry. And, look, reading this evidence, I am persuaded that Mathew Martoma might be one of them. But it’s not a good look for our justice system to rely on a general sense of financial-industry crookedness to get convictions for actual instances of actual crimes. That sort of happens, though, with prosecutors and the SEC arguing that the individual defendant in front of them did whatever he did out of “Wall Street greed.”⁵ “Wall Street greed” strikes me as code for: “Don’t worry about the facts of this case. Don’t you feel in your heart that everyone who works in finance is probably a crook? Isn’t that enough to convict?”

The Harvard stuff is a little different, in that it gets at not a general sense of financial-industry crookedness, but a specific sense of Martoma’s own (alleged, past, relatively harmless) crookedness. But it’s still an effort by prosecutors to get an insider trading conviction, not by proving that Martoma got inside information — in fact, they’re admitting that they can’t prove it!⁶ — but by creating a general sense that he’s probably a crook so you might as well send him to jail. That’s not the way it’s supposed to work.”

What Levine misses is that even the alleged forging of the computer email is not a proven fact at all

It’s just Harvard’s say so.

[Correction: Apparently, Harvard’s server had a copy of the email dated earlier, so there is, allegedly, a basis for the claim of “some of the board members” (of Harvard) that Martoma backdated the computer email to make it look like he withdrew his clerkship applications before being found out.]

There’s no evidence that Martoma’s version of that story isn’t the right one too.

The concocted computer firm endorsement doesn’t necessarily mean he was lying about the email.

On the contrary……
