The defenders are few and far between.

As the late Samuel Francis noted, South Arica’s fate might be ours. Anti-war conservative Paul Craig Roberts once asked the rhetorical question, “Should A Country That Can’t Defend Its Borders Invade Another?” Obviously, we Americans should address the real threats to our own security, and stop allowing neoconservatives to dupe us into wars “for the interests of a foreign state“.

Off topic, South Africa today resembles an outcome of Israel populated by a majority of non-Jews, as desired by the enemies of Israel. The tyranny of majority rule where the inhabitants don’t share the same basic cultural values will have as its goal and outcome the wiping out the Jewish culture, hebrew language etc.

This is what is happening in South Africa today, where the majority party has as its goal the destruction of the Afrikaans language and culture as represented in universities, schools, monuments, farms, businesses, communities, street and city names, history books etc. The goal is quite visible for those willing to spend the time to understand the issues in South Africa, as the goals are clothed in the language of democracy, restitution and majority rule.

Orania is an attempt to reestablish a pro west, and western civilization based territory in South Africa. See the link as referenced by Daniel above.

It remains the case that any fair-minded person must be an Israel sympathizer. A hundred years ago there were Jews and Arabs living in that part of the Ottoman Empire. After the Ottoman collapse both peoples had a right to set up their own ethnostates. It has been the furiously intransigent Arab denial of this fact, not anything Israelis have done, that has been the root cause of all subsequent troubles. It is also indisputably the case, as has often been said, that if Hamas, Hezbollah, and the rest were to lay down their arms, there would be peace in Palestine, while if Israel were to lay down her arms, the Israelis would be slaughtered.

The rest of the article is well worth reading.

I’ll admit it. For example, like most other paleoconservatives in this country, I’m an American, i.e., an English-speaking European whose sole loyalty is to the United States. Like most American paleos, I tend to look askance at government policies that seem to be of no benefit to me and my fellow Americans, or that seem to be engineered for the benefit of some foreign tribe at our expense. “The West” is an abstract concept; America is where we live. When examining any government policy, paleoconservatives consistently ask what the f— is in it for us Americans?

Naturally, I opposed Clinton’s war on Serbia, which was clearly inspired by the 1997 film Wag the Dog and intended only to distract public attention from the Lewinsky scandal and Clinton’s impeachment, because Clinton was the only American who derived any benefit from it. I question the government’s unconditional support of Israel because my fellow Americans and I derive no particular benefit from it. There is no inconsistency in these two opinions. At least, that’s the way my tribal loyalty colors the issues for me.

One would think that more Serbs would support Israel’s right to exist, being as they’ve been listed right next to the Jews as the “enemies of Allah” (according to the Londonistani cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri), but that’s not very often the case.

The other day Nebojsa Malic posted the piece you linked to on a Serbian site and some of the comments were shocking. They weren’t simply”ad hominem” without any attempt to disprove what Malic has written, they were downright offensive! One person even suggested that Malic’s text has been shaped by the “pro-zionist” site Antiwar.com! No, I’m not making this up, I couldn’t even if I wanted to! On a whole, however, the coments were split even, mostly, between those supportive and dismissive of Malic, but the level of the latter was as I described above.

Media is hypnotised as usual and I wonder how long they can enforce this sate of affairs? At the ame time the same Europeans have been turning with malice on israel: using lies and misinformation.
Watching from the new south africa:one wonders what these people are trying to achieve!?
And the kurdish plight is never up for discussion in the human rights councils: It seems the new dark ages of europe is back and the usa is being dragged in by its brain dead media mainstream

However, I am glad they did it.

I still feel the Paleos don’t strongly back the Israelis because of their ideological war with the Neocons. The neocons’ support of open borders, attacking Serbia and big government has caused the Paleos to lash out at the only thing they feel is near and dear to the neocons, Israel.

It’s not right, but the paleos have been supplanted and don’t really have much power or influence anymore. Because of this, I don’t see why it is such a big deal that they don’t support Israel given their lack of importance.

Off topic, I found a link to this article about South Africa on a blog post at Steve Sailer’s site. The article is critical of a certain town in SA that is all white.
