For now, the only path back to Chagos seems to depend on Mauritius regaining control of the islands.

After long ignoring the plight of the refugees on its soil, the Mauritian government — perhaps envisioning the islands’ economic potential — now says it views their resettlement and development as “matters of high priority.”

Last year, Britain fought in the United Nations General Assembly to keep the issue out of the international court — established to decide disputes between nations — but lost in a vote of 94 to 15. Britain’s main European allies abstained, a sign of how the Chagos episode has come to be seen, in the words of a former British diplomat, as “one of the worst violations of human rights perpetrated by the U.K. in the 20th century.”

But there is little indication that Britain would be swayed by the court, whose advisory opinions have been ignored before. In 2004, it ruled that Israel’s construction of a wall through the Palestinian territory of the West Bank was illegal — but Israel simply rejected the ruling and the wall remains.

“At best, it’s a condemnation,” Mardemootoo said. “But that is what we are hoping to achieve — that with international pressure, the U.S. and U.K. will back down.”

Britain has said it would hand the islands back to Mauritius when they were “no longer needed for defense purposes,” without suggesting a date.

Psychiatrist calls today's left 'mentally ill'

Dr. Rossiter says the liberal agenda preys on weakness and feelings of inferiority in the population by:

creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization;
satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence and compensation;
augmenting primitive feelings of envy;
rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government.

“The president has decided he is not prepared to spend one more hour on this matter,” Bennett said. “It is clear that the American people want their president and Congress to focus on the problems that they were elected to solve. This is a step in that direction.”

supporting fascists is crazy, right?

Insight is the best way to improve.

Looks like Real Music has found some Russian collusion. Too bad it is between the meme makers and the Russians. No collusion by Trump or his campaign.

The biggest news today is that Trump uses both a computer and Google.

Shredded Fictions

A representative sample is an ongoing case. Months ago, police caught in Berlin two Chechens in possession of bomb-making material. Since no action had yet been taken, they were let go. Wisely, these decided to split up. On the 15th of August the youth that stayed provoked another raid. It netted evidence of a planned attack on the public. This time an arrest followed.

As this suggests, the largesse toward law-breakers tends to involve predictable risks to the public. The reader finds examples along the lines of the Steinle murder in accommodating San Francisco -where the reluctance to act preventively has cost a life. As argued here in the past, such cases support the claim that “PC kills”.
Elites use the media they control through loyal writers, reporters and pundits, to go beyond determining what will be allowed to become “news”. They can also tell the average person what he must think so as not to be cast as a deviant, but also what he thinks. This elite’s death-wish for our civilization sermonizes that resisting physical attacks upon our way of life is an illiberal act inspired by neo-colonialism. By that standard, persecuting and suppressing attackers is depicted as the “racism” of those that are, anyhow, guilty for the backwardness of the Third World.

This softness, marketed as enlightened liberal openness, comes from mushy thinking. It does more than to boldly ignore the facts. What it achieves is to suppress the native majority’s instinct of self-preservation manifested through the appropriate resistance to encroachments. Additionally, what amounts to the wholesale excuse of crime before it can even happen, is being advocated.

A psychiatrist who also serves as an “expert witness” in Britain, expresses the defiance provoked by submissiveness. “I’ve got no respect for any law other than Allah’s, so I don’t care about the law… I care for the law of Islam.” Equally revealing is an open letter -attribute it to native sympathizers- in the German and Austrian press. It makes the indigenous responsible for the failed integration of migrants. These should get more money and should be invited to join families -which will presumably show their tolerance by adapting to Muslim standards.

That organized indigenous forces, driven by multicultural dogmas, self-hate, and reverse racism, guide and support take-overs-by-merger, augments the peril.
