#WeAreNotAfraid
I’m all for bravado and armchair twitter activism, if it makes you feel better, but let’s not delude ourselves. We’re all afraid.

Prying Westerners Out of Their Delusional Safe Spaces
Trigger Warning: If your birth certificate suggests you’re an adult but you actually prefer living in a bubble wrap type existence, constantly on the lookout for micro-aggressions which might cause you to wimper like an infant at the slightest discomfort, then best that you stop reading this now and have your third Purell cleanse of the day.

Everyone else will likely find it highly informative to listen to this podcast from Friday evening’s John Batchelor Show, in the wake of the multi-pronged attack on Paris. The 40-minute episode starts out with host, John Batchelor, interviewing Bill Roggio, Thomas Joscelyn, and Sebastian Gorka. A more informative analysis of what’s going on in the world you will not find anywhere. Hour #2 can be heard here.
Mark Steyn: The Barbarians Are Inside, And There Are No Gates
As I write, Paris is under curfew for the first time since the German occupation, and the death toll from the multiple attacks stands at 158, the vast majority of them slaughtered during a concert at the Bataclan theatre, a delightful bit of 19th century Chinoiserie on the boulevard Voltaire. The last time I was there, if memory serves, was to see Julie Pietri. I’m so bloody sick of these savages shooting and bombing and killing and blowing up everything I like – whether it’s the town where my little girl’s favorite fondue restaurant is or my favorite hotel in Amman or the brave freespeecher who hosted me in Copenhagen …or a music hall where I liked to go to hear a little jazz and pop and get away from the cares of the world for a couple of hours. But look at the photographs from Paris: there’s nowhere to get away from it; the barbarians who yell “Allahu Akbar!” are there waiting for you …when you go to a soccer match, you go to a concert, you go for a drink on a Friday night. They’re there on the train… at the magazine office… in the Kosher supermarket… at the museum in Brussels… outside the barracks in Woolwich…

Iran has stopped dismantling centrifuges in two uranium enrichment plants, state media reported on Tuesday, days after conservative lawmakers complained to President Hassan Rouhani that the process was too rushed.

An Ottawa Police Officer receives Enforcement Award for “jumping into action” on the day Cpl. Nathan Cirillo was murdered.
Did he rush to the fallen soldier’s aid? Nope.
Did he shoot the terrorist? Nope.
Did he lead civilians to safety? Nope.
Well, what did he do?
He visited Ottawa mosques on that fateful day and he received the award because….“I was with them and I could sense the fear and the vulnerability of being marginalized and alienated”.

Reader Adrian, via email;
I know Mark Steyn has been variously covered about the same thing, Douglas Murray in another piece from Gatestone, pointing out much some of the same.
And it is just the same few brave souls, how it has changed, in our short lives, going from the noble tent dweller, via some obscure threat that must surely be a laugh at about Salmon Rushdie, to death on the streets of Europe. It is now the most pervasive part of everyone on the planets life. From Cassius Clay and Cat Stevens to world domination in a generation, and by domination isn’t that where we now are, it shapes every aspect of life, from freedom of speech and segregated bathing to sharia compliant laws,never mind as a child the spectacle of meeting an Indian or African, is there a street in any town in the world today without a muslim. There are conversely now huge swathes of the earth where there is but one ideology, the exponential curve on this must near equate to the fall of any previous civilisation.

Critics pointed out in the past that a multicultural America can’t afford the welfare states that European countries have. Now that those same countries are turning multicultural, they can’t afford them either.

My God, this is just a young Muslim male. So what if he’s ticking? Do I really want to be tied up in sensitivity-training hell for the next six months?

The number of Muslims in Whitemoor prison in Cambridgeshire is thought to be double what it was in 2008, and the highest proportion in any UK prison. Even then, prison staff were warning about radicalisation. It now appears the situation is deteriorating at a rapid pace.
“About half the prisoners on Whitemoor’s main wings are Muslim, profoundly affecting the social nature of the jail and disrupting established hierarchies,” the report from the Independent Monitoring Board – which makes judgements on prisoner welfare – reads.
It concluded: “Against this background we note that some prisoners and staff found the Muslim presence overwhelming. The social and religious fragmentation within Whitemoor potentially posed risks for discipline and hence safety.”

Dear “Progressives”/Liberals/Leftists: Please carefully listen to what Pat Condell is saying. Clearly most of his words will upset you. But here’s the more important question: What precisely is he saying that is inaccurate or just not true?
