It’s all in the genes claim scientists
Gosh, just what are the liberals around the world going to say when they hear this news? For years they have been brainwashing the human population into believing that all races are the same, yet along comes science to prove – once again – that it ain’t so. No way you say. And this comes from the Department of Psychology at Northwestern University in Illinois – so liberals eat your heart out. According to the researchers, one gene differed between the Western and Asian populations which could explain why British people are more inclined to be free thinkers, and Asians have a more collectivist outlook. According to Ms Chiao, the findings showed how culture exerts a powerful influence on human genetics and evolution. Who knew! Well us racists race realists do that’s for sure. You can go wherever you like in the world, the Black man has the same culture and outlook; as do the Asians, and the Indians, and the Whites etc. Why would that be? Only the liberal fools try to teach anything differently. Best you read the article before the PC collectivist police remove it!
California’s Greek Tragedy
Oh, the authors of this piece come soooooo close to calling a spade a spade, and then they cop out. Cowards. They mostly use all the right words – even the correct statistics to back up their worry, but in the end they just can’t admit why California is going bankrupt. For example, here are the stats that count: From mid-1980 to 2005, the population grew by 10 million, whilst Medicaid recipients increased by 7 million; tax payers filing income tax increased by only 150 000, but the prison population rose by 115 000. California is home to 12% of America’s population, yet have 33% of the welfare recipients. The annual spending on a prison inmate equals an entire middle-income family’s after-tax income. Also add to this burden the number of youth who are stoned out of their minds on cannabis, and add the number of illegal immigrants and the increase in the Black and Asian populations and bingo, you have a state that’s sucking off the welfare teat and going bankrupt. However, the authors only say that the states diversity is its strength. See, that’s where they were so close, but oh so wrong. Oh well, we live to fight another liberal or two.
Now, the bill is coming due. After running a $5 billion deficit last year and another likely deficit this year, Gov. Jerry Brown’s budget increases spending next year by $7 billion and finances the higher spending with income and sales-tax hikes. Specifically, he’s proposing a November ballot initiative raising the state’s top income tax rate to 12.3%, making it the nation’s highest, and raising the basic state sales tax rate, already the nation’s highest, to 7.75% from 7.25%.
Africans in Switzerland find a common voice
So, the Swiss tend to think of Africans as drug dealers and violent people. Well, they are correct of course. Africans living in Switzerland now number nearly 61 000 – do the Swiss know what they’re importing? Apparently they do, but still the government allows it. The Africans are now trying to show the Swiss that they are more than just drug dealing pimps, and can be trusted. See, this is what I don’t understand. When Whites were in Africa, the African Blacks wanted them out asap. Throughout their history they have brutally attacked and killed innocent Whites, yet they run to the White-man’s lands when they’re in trouble. Send them back. Let them sort out their own mess that they’ve created with their savagery and criminality. Let them build up their own countries – if it’s mud huts then so be it – that’s the way they chose to live. Do you honestly think that Whites would be able to move to one of the Black African nations – to the tune of 61 000 people, without them catching a heart attack? Let me answer that for you – no! They would wet their pants to get rid of them, calling them colonizers who are there to keep the Black man down. Yet, today they run to Europe in the form of refugees and war orphans and the White man takes them in over and over. There are 61 000 today, a million tomorrow and bang goes Switzerland. Their true nature will come out eventually, as we’ve seen over and over. Today they may be grateful and civil, but a few generations down the line you’ll have criminal savages running in the Swiss streets. You only have to look at what’s happening in the UK and Sweden to know the truth. Of course the Swiss know what they’re dealing with – if only their own government would too.
Some fled from a country torn by war. Others were following the dream of a better future: a job, a home, a family.
“African immigration is a rather recent phenomenon in Switzerland which experienced a significant development in the past 20-30 years,” explained the sociologist Denise Efionayi, author of a study on the Sub-Saharan diaspora published by the Swiss Forum for Migration and Population Studies (SFM).
“This is a heterogeneous community, with extremely varied cultural, linguistic and religious affiliations. ‘African’ identity for these migrants is often defined negatively in response to a common migratory pattern and experiences of discrimination and marginality.”
In the eyes of many Swiss, these migrants are simply Africans. It matters little where they come from; whether they are Christian or Muslim, or speak French, English or Arabic.
It’s a prejudice which needs to be corrected, certainly, but one which the African diaspora is now trying to turn to its own advantage, playing down national barriers so as to speak with a single voice.
Earlier this month, several hundred Africans met in Bern to get to know each other, engage in dialogue, and share their hopes and frustrations.
The congress was organised by the African Diaspora Council Switzerland (ADCS) which intends to act as an umbrella for the hundreds of African associations, small businesses and places of worship now active around the country.
The aim is to improve the image of this community of migrants which is too often associated with problems like illegal immigration, drug dealing and violence.
Strength in numbers
The African community was in shock, but in spite of this only a small number of people took part in protests and awareness-raising actions that followed the event,” explained ADCS coordinator Celeste Ugochukwu.
“So we thought that, if Mohammed won’t go to the mountain… we needed to get going ourselves. And so we went around the different regions to get to know the groups and act as a bridge between them.”
The creation of an African diaspora council immediately aroused the interest of the Federal Migration Office.
“For us it is fundamental to have a more institutional partner that can give voice to the needs of the migrants,” Eric Kaser from the Migration Office integration division told swissinfo.ch.
Around 30 associations have joined the initiative and, apart from Egyptian representatives, they are run by, or cater to, migrants from Sub-Saharan Africa.
Some concern themselves with facilitating the integration of Africans in Switzerland, others with promoting development in their home countries through exchanges of skills or sending money. There are politically motivated organisations and research centres for promoting peace.
A fundamental role in the integration of migrants is played by the religious groups, the food stores, hairdressers and restaurants, which also represent a significant focus on socialisation.
“Unlike the Spaniards and Portuguese, Africans were not able to count on the help of trade unions in creating a community where they could band together and defend their rights,” explained Efionayi.
“This is because of the great diversity of the community and an economic situation that is quite different from what it was in the post-war era.”
Overcoming prejudice
“Leaving aside our cultural differences, we are often confronted with the same problems: access to education or jobs, assimilation, loneliness and isolation,” said Joel Hakizimana, a 31-year-old originally from Burundi who is now secretary of the ADCS.
Prejudice is all too present in life and “even if at times people get tired of hearing about integration, sharing experiences and strategies lets us look to the future in a positive way”, he said.
Workplace discrimination is perhaps the most striking aspect of the experience of these young people. Between 2003 and 2007, two-thirds of African immigrants were working at semi-skilled or unskilled jobs, for the most part as manual labourers, or were working in retail, services and restaurants.
“Some of them have a university degree, but these are not recognised or have simply lost their worth after the months of inactivity taken up by the asylum procedure or unemployment, which among young Africans is over 20 per cent,” said Efionayi.
For the African diaspora, economic and social participation is the key to successful integration. The new organisation is a chance to show Swiss society the important role played by various regional associations.
It is an opportunity to reinforce a common African identity and create a political lobby able to overcome the many prejudices which exist.
“Integration is like doing the tango: it takes two,” participants in the diaspora meeting have been saying.
“We are ready to dance. Are you?”
UN panel adopts sidelined report that praised Qaddafi rights record
It seems the UN hasn’t seen a dictator that they haven’t loved. The latest one to get whitewashed as a good guy is Muammar Qaddafi. The UN must be completely devastated to have lost such a bastion of human rights. Poor guy – just why did his own people kill him? They obviously hadn’t read the UN report that’s why! Next time UN, make sure to send your reports to the unhappy people before they revolt and kill your good guy. How about Syria? Quick, send a positive report to them – maybe it’ll prevent more bloodshed? Already 7500 have died – more than during the 46 years of Apartheid. Says a lot about the UN doesn’t it? It also says a lot about what the UN understands about the term human rights – seems to change from cause to cause, country to country, and race to race. And what was Canada thinking approving this report?
A United Nations panel has adopted a report praising Qaddafi-era Libya for its human rights record, a year after the report was sidelined amid international objection.

How Qatar bought Britain
Whilst British governments over and over squandered the oil and gas wealth by increasing the social welfare bill, Qatar has taken a different approach and has invested billions in a future fund, which in turn has invested in numerous English businesses and landmarks. Today Britain is up to her eyeballs in debt – all her riches gone, nothing to show for it but increased debt, increased welfare dependency and an uneducated population of youth, most of whom can’t find gainful employment. Qatar? Not so much. Qatar, a tiny gulf state has done very well by investing in its future. Poor Britain. They’re like the uncle you’re too embarrassed to introduce to your friends. Too bad, so sad. But, there is a silver lining. The British now know where they can get a job – in Qatar!

How Engineering the Human Body Could Combat Climate Change
I can just see those Greeny latte-drinker inner-city types nodding their head in agreement with this nonsense. This is what happens when you allow kooky intellectual types with degrees in philosophy and who are cloistered in academic centres to have a voice. They should rather stay in their caves where they don’t sound stupid, instead of opening their mouths and removing all doubt. Their latest hair brained idea is to genetically modify humans so that they don’t cause too much damage to the environment. Like what you ask? Well, like genetically modifying a foetus so that they will be smaller in size – and therefore less resource intensive. How about a pill so that you don’t want to eat meat? How about genetically altering human eyes to be like cat eyes. Why? Well, because then humans won’t need so much light at night. See how wonky these people are? They don’t deserve to be walking amongst us. They should be on their own little island somewhere far away where they can pray to the moon, speak to the trees and chant to each other in their gobbly gook all-knowing language. Just leave us humans alone. We are doing just fine thank you.
From drugs to help you avoid eating meat to genetically engineered cat-like eyes to reduce the need for lighting, a wild interview about changes humans could make to themselves to battle climate change.

Chicago Bears’ Lovie Smith Calls on Blacks to Back Obama
Apparently this is not racist. If you are a ‘minority’ then anything racist you do is justifiable and isn’t actual racism, just payback because the Whites deserve it. But, let’s imagine for a second that Romney were POTUS and a White coach were to say that he supports Romney because he’s White and he calls on his fellow Whites to vote for Romney, what do you think would happen?? Take a wild guess. See, I love when this happens because you can always use it against these fools later. And in any case, why the heck is this coach even worrying about the Black vote seeing as Obama has a 97% approval rating amongst them – they already got the race memo when they were born with their race card strapped to their hip, ready for immediate use. This guy is as dumb as they come. It’s almost as if he believes he walks on water and his word is that important. No Mr Lovie Smith (!) – you’re only a coach of some lame sport team and you really aren’t that important.
Chicago Bears head coach Lovie Smith wants African-Americans to “be patient and look into the future,” setting aside any disappointment in President Obama to actively support his campaign for a second term.

No Warming For 17 Years – Game, Set, Match
Say it isn’t so! You mean, global warming….errr….climate change isn’t real? Oh dear, and here’s Australia set on imposing a $23 per tonne – yes, you read correctly, a $23 per tonne – carbon dioxide tax on everything in the country from July so that we can reduce our ‘footprint’ by a whole 5%! Now, if you want a picture of how much CO2 Australia is responsible for, then imagine a room 3x3x2 and put a big corn-flakes box in the corner and that box represents how much of the entire CO2 we are responsible for. And our government wants to cut that corn-flakes box by 5% so as to save the world from dangerous overheating! Meantime China builds a new coal-fired power station every week…..but nothing to see there so look the other way Australia. Our new super tax is only going to cost $50 billion over the next few years, so I’m sure we’ll see a dramatic drop in the world temperatures…..no wait, there has been no warming after all! Oh well, I’m sure all that money Ms Gillard is going to suck out of our economy will be put to good use……..oh wait, the Labor government has already racked up $200 BILLION in debt over the last 4 years – after being left with $20 billion in surplus by John Howard and Peter Costello (the evil Conservatives). Now, I wonder why Ms Gillard is still going ahead with the carbon dioxide tax, even though there hasn’t been any warming over the last 17 years, and even though the European emissions trading scheme has all but collapsed and you can pick permits up for under $10 per tonne, and even though the tax will reduce the world’s temperature by only 0.00000001%, or some such ridiculous non-measurable amount. No, there has to be a good reason why the Australian Labor government is still going ahead with economic suicide….hmmmmm. Nah, I can’t quite put my finger on it. Anyone with any ideas??
