Familiars
ex Wiki
When they served witches, they were often thought to be
malevolent, while
when working for cunning folk they were often thought of as
benevolent (although there was some ambiguity in both cases). The former
were often categorised as
demons, while
the latter were more commonly thought of and described as
fairies. The
main purpose of familiars is to serve the witch or young witch, providing
protection for them as they come into their new powers.[3]
Since the 20th century some magical practitioners, including adherents of the
Neopagan religion of
Wicca, use the
concept of familiars, due to their association with older forms of magic. These
contemporary practitioners utilize pets or wildlife, or believe that invisible
spirit versions of familiars act as magical aids.[4]
Football, Rape & Global Warming Fraud
I’m referring to another cover up and whitewash that occurred
there two years ago, before we learned how rotten and corrupt
the culture at the university was. But now that we know how bad
it was, perhaps it’s time that we revisit the
Michael Mann
affair, particularly given how much
we’ve also learned about his and others’ hockey-stick
deceptions since. Mann could be said to be the Jerry Sandusky of
climate science, except that instead of molesting children, he
has molested and tortured data in the service of politicized
science that could have dire economic consequences for the
nation and planet. Not sure I’d have extended that metaphor all the way into the
locker-room showers with quite the zeal Mr. Simberg does, but he has
a point. Michael Mann was the man behind the fraudulent
climate-change “hockey-stick” graph, the very ringmaster of the
tree-ring circus. And, when the
East
Anglia emails came out, Penn
State felt obliged to “investigate” Professor Mann. Graham Spanier,
the Penn State president forced to resign over Sandusky, was the
same cove who investigated Mann. And, as with Sandusky and Paterno,
the college declined to find one of its star names guilty of any
wrongdoing. If an institution is prepared to cover up systemic statutory rape
of minors, what won’t it cover up? Whether or not he’s “the Jerry
Sandusky of climate change”, he remains the
Michael Mann of climate change, in
part because his “investigation” by a deeply corrupt administration
was a joke.

Law360, New York (April 19, 2018, 4:14 PM EDT) -- Mark Steyn, a
commentator who had a public falling-out last year with the
conservative media company CRTV, has won some $4 million in
arbitration against the network, it was revealed on Thursday,
with a New York judge rejecting the company’s effort to reduce
the amount it owes. [ See
NY Supreme Court
Confirms That Mark Won ]
Steyn’s legal battle with CRTV, which started in 2017 after his
show on the online-only politics channel was shut down, may be
nearing its end now that Judge Eileen Bransten has rejected
CRTV’s request that about $2 million be subtracted from the
value of the award. The media company claimed arbitrator Elaine
Gordon went too far, but Judge Bransten rejected that.
“It is clear that the arbitrator did not exceed her authority,”
the judge said. “The court finds CRTV fails to establish there
was a manifest disregard of the law.”
In a suit Steyn and his company filed against CRTV in Vermont
federal court in February 2017, the Steyn parties claimed that a
CRTV representative entered Steyn’s studio after he had gone
home for the day and told his staff the show was canceled. Both
sides accused the other of violating a 2016 contract, with Steyn
saying CRTV falsely accused him of not delivering the required
number of shows.
The
Daily Beast reported last year, based on affidavits and
interviews with former employees, that several episodes Steyn
created for CRTV were less than the required length of about 45
minutes. His lawyer Michael Murphy of
Gerard
Fox Law PC called those claims “highly suspicious” and told
Law360 after Thursday’s hearing that the arbitrator rejected
them.
The federal case was shunted to arbitration. Steyn filed suit in
New York this year to confirm the award, but records of the
proceeding were sealed for months, with Judge Bransten revealing
the outcome of the dispute for the first time on Thursday.
According to the judge, CRTV accused its former star and his
company Mark Steyn Enterprises U.S. Inc. of violating a
contract, civil theft and conversion, among other offenses.
Steyn and the company countered with accusations that the
network had violated the contract and committed fraud. The
arbitrator rejected CRTV’s claims and ruled in Steyn’s favor.
Judge Bransten said the video service challenged two parts of
the award — $908,000 awarded to production company Oak Hill
Media Inc., and over $1 million in attorneys' fees and costs.
The judge said the arbitrator apparently made a mistake when she
awarded fees, but said there was a “colorable justification” for
it and declined to modify the award.
The judge pegged the award’s value at about $3.7 million when
she read her decision from the bench. With interest, Steyn told
Law360 after the hearing, it’s worth more than $4 million.
“CRTV picked a fight with me — and they lost, comprehensively,
as comprehensively as they could,” he said. “I think they should
honor what two judges have now found.”
Jeffrey Mitchell of
Browne
George Ross LLP, representing CRTV, told Judge Bransten that
her findings included errors, but the judge rejected his request
to argue and told him to file a motion for reargument that
Steyn’s side could respond to. The judge called on Steyn’s side
to submit a proposed final judgment in the meantime.
An attorney for CRTV didn’t immediately respond to requests for
comment.
It’s not the first legal battle for Steyn that has made
headlines. Climate researcher Michael Mann sued him and the
conservative magazine National Review several years ago over a
column that expressed agreement with a statement that referred
to Mann as “the Jerry Sandusky of climate science.” Sandusky, a
former football coach at Penn State, was convicted of sexually
abusing boys.
Appeals related to that case appear to be ongoing.
Steyn and his companies are represented by Michael Murphy and
Edward D. Altabet of Gerard Fox Law PC and Erin O’Leary of
Fishkin Lucks LLP.
CRTV is represented by Jeffrey Mitchell, Judith R. Cohen and
Benjamin D. Scheibe of Browne George Ross LLP.
The case is Steyn et al. v. CRTV LLC, index number 650887/2018,
in Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York.

QUOTE
When his show was suddenly canceled by CRTV, Mark Steyn said he sued to
protect his employees—a claim some of those employees flatly reject
by
Lachlan Markay
03.14.17 12:00 AM ET
When conservative commentator Mark Steyn sued the company that canceled his new online TV talk show last month, he said he was doing it for his employees.
His staff didn’t buy it.
“It’s bullshit, frankly,” said Mike Young, formerly the show’s site supervisor. “They all hate him.”
Late last month the Canadian author sued conservative media startup CRTV for breach of contract following the network’s abrupt cancellation of The Mark Steyn Show after just two months on the air. Steyn demanded the court issue a restraining order keeping his show running while it adjudicated his breach-of-contract allegations, saying his “employees will suffer irreparable harm because they will lose their health insurance coverage as a result of [CRTV’s] actions,” in the judge’s summation.
Steyn was there, he said, to protect their interests, claims he reiterated on his website: “I didn’t feel the cameramen and production assistants and musicians and audio engineers should have to suffer because I was stupid enough to get into bed with CRTV.”
His employees tell a different story: They say Steyn ran the show into the ground. He generally wouldn’t even speak to crew members, they claim, and when he did, he verbally abused them. In one case Steyn referred to members of the northern Vermont-based crew, a former employee claimed under oath, as “a bunch of meth-heads.” A Steyn spokesperson denied he made that comment.
Steyn had crew members run personal errands, they say, spent CRTV funds on lavish meals and expensive personal purchases, and boasted of the large settlement he planned to extract from the company.
This account is based on sworn declarations, made under penalty of perjury and provided exclusively to The Daily Beast, from nine former Mark Steyn Show employees, and interviews with four of those former employees, three of whom spoke on the record.
Steyn did not respond to a request for comment on his former crew members’ allegations. His spokesperson Melissa Howes denied most of their claims. “It saddens us to hear these allegations,” she said.
A best-selling author and guest-host of The Rush Limbaugh Show, Steyn is an intellectual leader in the conservative cadres that have ascended with the rise of President Donald Trump’s reactionary populist movement. He is a fierce critic of illegal immigration, refugee resettlement in Europe and the United States, fundamentalist Islam, and political correctness.
Steyn’s commentary has drawn legal challenges in the past. He is currently fighting a libel lawsuit brought by geophysicist Michael Mann over Steyn’s 2012 claim that some of Mann’s academic work on climate change was “fraudulent.” Steyn also successfully fought allegations in Canadian court that some of his criticism of Islam violated Muslims’ human rights.
When CRTV, an affiliate of the website Conservative Review, took shape in mid-2016, he received top billing. Steyn’s show aired alongside programs hosted by some of the biggest conservative names in media, including talk radio host Mark Levin and author and columnist Michelle Malkin.
CRTV financed the construction of a television studio in Williston, Vermont, near Steyn’s home in New Hampshire, that crew members described as expensive and sophisticated. “It is absolutely beautiful. Imagine walking into The Tonight Show,” said Paul Kullman, who ran camera operations on the set.
Steyn’s deal with CRTV called for five episodes per week, each running one “television hour”—or about 45 minutes to allow for commercial breaks if CRTV opted to sell the rights to the show to a cable provider down the line.
From Dec. 21 through Feb. 8, CRTV claims, Steyn produced just 11 episodes longer than 40 minutes. In an email, Howes declined to comment on specific production numbers or the terms of Steyn’s contract but said she was “very confident we have more than met” those terms.
On Feb. 8, CRTV sent Steyn a breach of contract notice saying that he had not fulfilled its terms. It gave him 10 days to rectify his standing with the company by producing eight full-length episodes. According to CRTV, he turned in just four.
On Feb. 20, the company informed Steyn that his show had been canceled. It filed a demand for arbitration and directed Steyn to remove his property from the studio by Feb. 28.
Two days later, Steyn filed his lawsuit. He insisted that he had “complied with [his] contractual obligations” and that it was CRTV that had breached the terms. He asked the court to step in and prevent CRTV from canceling the contract and forcing him to vacate the studio.
The judge in the case quickly tossed out Steyn’s demand for a temporary restraining order (PDF). Steyn withdrew the lawsuit a few days later, before CRTV answered his complaint. They have since begun arbitration proceedings.
Former crew members were livid that Steyn had invoked their interests in his legal pursuits. “That is my main motivation behind talking to you today,” said Mike Dunn, the show’s director, in an interview. “To see them paint themselves in a good light using the staff as leverage, as soon as that started happening, the staff all bailed on them.”
“He never gave a shit about anybody on that staff,” Kullman said in an interview. “It’s bullshit that he says, ‘Oh, I’m concerned about my staff.’ He didn’t even know our names.”
Steyn generally went out of his way to avoid dealing with the crew at all, they say. “We only one time had a meeting with the staff and Mark,” Kullman recalls. “There are many staff members who never even spoke to him.”
Crew members say Steyn often refused to rehearse segments, showed up at the studio minutes before filming was scheduled to begin, and occasionally declined to show up at all, leaving crew members, some of whom had commuted hours to the studio, in the lurch.
Kullman remembers driving two hours through blizzard conditions only to discover that Steyn had canceled the day’s shoot. In a sworn statement, another crew member recalled Steyn emailing employees late at night telling them to come to the studio the next morning for an unscheduled shoot. “When we showed up, Mark Steyn canceled the shoot.”
Multiple crew members blame Steyn’s conduct for the show’s inability to meet CRTV’s production quotas.
“As a result of Mark Steyn’s lack of preparation and refusal to cooperate, it was impossible to produce four to five shows per week,” according to one crew member’s sworn declaration.
“Mark Steyn was incredibly disorganized, often did not show up on scheduled production days, and snuck out of the studio so that nobody would know his whereabouts,” another declaration recalls. “Because of this conduct, it would take a week to shoot an episode instead of the designated day.”
The crew was never given a production schedule, they say. They often didn’t know what they would be shooting until the day of the shoot. Because Steyn would frequently show up last-minute, they were forced to figure out content on the fly. When the inevitable hiccups in production occurred, Steyn would berate crew members who say they simply did not know what he wanted.
On two occasions, those tirades ended with Steyn firing an employee on the spot, according to Kullman’s sworn statement. “Anyone at any moment felt like they could have been fired by him,” he added in his interview.
When cameras weren’t rolling, crew members say Steyn was almost entirely inaccessible. His offices were on the second floor of the studio facility, and they say Howes, who is Steyn’s publisher in addition to being his spokesperson and an executive on the show, instructed crew members not to approach him there—and, when he entered the studio, not to make eye contact.
“People that worked downstairs weren’t allowed to go to the upstairs offices because it was too distracting for Mark. It was bizarre,” Kullman said. According to one crew member’s sworn statement, staff were even instructed not to enter the second-floor restrooms and instead told to use ones by the studio facility’s loading dock.
Crew members eventually resorted to lingering outside the makeup room, one of the few places that they might be able to discuss the day’s show with Steyn before cameras rolled. “Eventually that became off-limits too,” Dunn recalls.
The nine Mark Steyn Show employees who have submitted sworn declarations for arbitration proceedings have worked in the television and entertainment industries for an average of 19 years. Eight of them say they believe that Steyn “intentionally sabotaged” the show. “I really feel that he did not want this to succeed from the very first day,” Kullman reiterated.
Howes declined to comment on any of the allegations in the former employees’ sworn statements—only calling them “fanciful”—as CRTV’s attorneys had not yet officially filed them. But she pushed back on some of the allegations, including that Steyn would show up at the studio immediately before filming was scheduled to begin.
“What’s on screen...speaks for itself,” Howes wrote in an emailed statement. “That is not the appearance of a man who commutes two hours from New Hampshire, skids to a halt outside the door, and walks in to wing it. Were these accusations true, they would show on screen. They do not.”
“A lot of things can be said about Mark, but being under-rehearsed and unprepared is not one of them,” Howes said. “The shows speak for themselves. Mark is engaged and prepared and on his game.”
Asked whether Steyn had refused to participate in rehearsals, Howes denied “that Mark was not ‘rehearsed.’” But crew members say rehearsals weren’t just for him. “Even at the highest levels with the best talent there are rehearsals,” Dunn said. “It’s not just for the talent; it’s for the crew, it’s for everyone involved so they know what to expect so they can have a successful production.”
According to Dunn, “Mark was not interested in help with the creation of his show.”
Without that help, the show was always doomed, Kullman says. “There was no way we could possibly meet those contractual obligations [with CRTV] and it was all because of Mark. No one would work with him and no one could work with him because he was terrible to everyone.”
Most of Steyn’s interactions with the crew came through Howes, who led Oak Hill Media, a production contractor that CRTV hired in conjunction with its Mark Steyn Enterprises contract. In addition to her role as Steyn’s spokesperson, she runs Stockade Books & Music, which has published a number of his books and recordings.
“She was the speaking side of Mark’s tyrannical side,” Kullman says. “Basically she treated this whole situation like they were a king and a queen.”
Eventually staff found themselves running personal errands for Steyn and Howes, “including gassing up, washing, and changing the oil in their cars,” according to one former crew member’s declaration.
Howes defended her and Steyn’s use of staff for such tasks.
“It's not at all unusual for staff of high profile individuals to perform personal errands for them that enable them to focus their energies on their performance,” she wrote.
Other crew members say that Steyn used CRTV resources for lavish personal expenses. “Excessive amounts of food were brought in for lunches and refrigerators were stocked with expensive cheese and meats,” one employee recalled in a sworn statement. “They also used me to facilitate their wasteful spending by having me unnecessarily purchase expensive speakers, using the company credit card, for Mark Steyn.” CRTV confirmed that purchase.
As tensions with CRTV flared, Dunn recalls being assured that Steyn would extract a large settlement check from the company. “Mark said it would be the second largest check Vermont has ever seen if CRTV tried to buy him out,” Dunn said in his sworn statement.
Another crew member’s sworn declaration recalled Howes saying “that she and Mark Steyn would receive a large settlement from CRTV and would have ‘enough money to pay everyone for a long long time.’”
For some crew members, their experiences on the show were all the more
disheartening given their previous admiration for Steyn, his ideas, and his
skills as a political commentator.

More Deceit and Double-Think from Mark Steyn and Company – The Occidental Observer
Do parallel universes exist where history has taken an entirely different
course? It’s been a big
unanswered question in physics and philosophy for a long time, but I’ve
started to wonder whether the Canadian neo-conservative
Mark Steyn holds the key. His writing appears in this universe, but he
himself appears to be living some or all of the time in an entirely
different universe.
Mark Steyn is an important figure in American conservatism—a regular guest on Tucker Carlson and the favorite stand-in both for Carlson and for Rush Limbaugh. As will be obvious in the following, Steyn represents a segment of Jewry opposed to Muslim immigration (and only Muslim immigration) because of Muslim attitudes on Jews and Israel, while at the same time ignoring the much more powerful mainstream Jewish community that is in large part responsible for importing Muslims.
Another example is Stephen Steinlight, a former ADL operative and now a Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies. Steinlight opposes Muslim immigration because of his concern with Jewish interests. Steinlight believes that present immigration policy no longer serves Jewish interests because the new immigrants are less likely to be sympathetic to Israel and because they are more likely to view Jews as the wealthiest and most powerful group in the U.S.—and thus a potential enemy—rather than as victims of the Holocaust. His animosity toward the restrictionism of 1924–1965 shines through clearly. This “pause” in immigration is perceived as a moral catastrophe. He describes it as “evil, xenophobic, anti-Semitic,” “vilely discriminatory,” a “vast moral failure,” a “monstrous policy.” Jewish interests are his only consideration, while the vast majority of pre-1965 Americans are described as a “thoughtless mob” because they advocate a complete moratorium on immigration (here, p. v).
One can only hope that Steyn does not inherit Limbaugh’s huge radio
audience if, as seems quite possible, Limbaugh is unable to continue due to
his cancer diagnosis. Again, there is no indication that, like the rest of
the mainstream Jewish community, Steyn has any qualms about immigration in
general. Africans would be fine. Only Muslim immigration. Because that’s
what’s good for the Jews.
Jews as powerless opponents of Muslim immigration
That Steyn is living in an alternate, very Jewish universe can be concluded from his confident false assertions about modern Western history. In one interview from 2015 with the highly irritating “Jewish Mother” Laura Rosen Cohen, he used the seventieth anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz to muse on the mistaken policies of powerful European gentiles:
I think they [i.e., the Euro-goyim] drew the wrong conclusion from “Never Again”. The Jews were sort of peripheral to the meaning of that. I think what “Never Again” means to a Continental European is never again, as they saw it, the nationalism that led to war. So their response to 1939—1945 was to undermine their own nationalism. At the time of the European Constitution, so-called, a decade ago, you had these apparatchiks from the European Commission standing up and warning the Dutch and the French that if they didn’t sign on to this Euro-superstate they would be on the path to Belsen and Auschwitz.
In other words, it’s one or the other. You’ve the European Union or you’ve got ovens. That was the lesson they drew—that nationalism was bad, that nation states were bad, that national identity was bad. And, as part of that, they imported the next generation of anti-Semites to Europe. (Remembrance and Appropriation, 30th January 2020, SteynOnline)
In Mark Steyn’s parallel universe, Jews have stood by helplessly as Euro-goyim have misappropriated the Holocaust and used it as an excuse to “import the next generation of anti-Semites to Europe.” Steyn means that Euro-goyim have imported Muslims, of course, and in his universe Jews are obviously horrified but powerless opponents of Muslim immigration.
In the real universe, on the other hand, Jews are highly enthusiastic supporters of Muslim immigration and passionate believers in a Judeo-Islamic alliance against White Christian hate. Here are a few examples of this Jewish enthusiasm for Muslim immigration and the anti-White alliance Jews believe it will create in the West:
In Mark Steyn’s universe it appears that such headlines don’t exist. No, in the Steyniverse, Jews are “peripheral,” with no say in immigration policy and no political influence. That must be part of why Steyn announced in January 2020 that “I have a semi-official policy of sitting out Holocaust Memorial Day, on the grounds that in Europe formal veneration of dead Jews grows ever more fulsome in direct proportion to formal indifference to living Jews, and the extinguishing of what remains of Jewish life on the Continent.”
The highest decoration in France
That’s in “the Continent” of the Steyniverse, of course. In “the
Continent” of this universe, real Jews like Dr
Moshe Kantor don’t suffer “formal indifference” but receive the very
highest state honours:
Powerless Dr Moshe Kantor is honoured by François Hollande
Dr. Moshe Kantor, President of the European Jewish Congress (EJC), was awarded the Officier de la Légion d’Honneur (Officer of the Legion of Honour) by the President of France François Hollande [in June 2015]. The award is the highest decoration in France, established by Napoleon Bonaparte. For two centuries, it has been presented on behalf of the Head of State to reward the most deserving citizens in all fields of activity.
The award was bestowed on Dr. Kantor at the Elysée Palace by President Hollande for leading the fight against Antisemitism, racism, intolerance and xenophobia, promoting interfaith relations and a more tolerant Europe in his roles at the European Jewish Congress, the democratically-elected umbrella organization representing European Jewry. President Hollande called Dr. Kantor “a man of peace, a man of culture, a friend, and a friend of France.”
“You are an inspiring person in the Jewish world, a great figure of the Jewish People in Europe, heading a major institution, the European Jewish Congress, which today represents 42 communities,” President Hollande said before bestowing the award. “You and the EJC are promoting Jewish culture, interfaith dialogue and tolerance, fighting Antisemitism and racism and preserving the memory of the Holocaust. Because all of these reasons, all of these values — your fight against Antisemitism and for peace, and for your love of France — we honor you here today.” (Dr. Moshe Kantor Awarded Legion of Honour by President Hollande, European Jewish Congress, 30th June 2015)
In the Steyniverse, Moshe Kantor is presumably an unrecognized and unhonoured nobody. In this universe, he receives “the highest decoration in France,” heads the European Jewish Congress, and runs an Orwellian organization called the European Council on Tolerance and Reconciliation (ECTR) “to monitor tolerance in Europe.” The ECTR, which works hard to crush “xenophobia, antisemitism and racial discrimination,” is a big fan of Muslim immigration but not of free speech. And Moshe Kantor, ignored by important European politicians in the Steyniverse, has their full support in the real universe: the ECTR has recruited the former President of Poland Aleksander Kwaśniewski, the former Prime Minister of Spain José María Aznar, the former Prime Minister of Sweden Göran Persson, the former Speaker of the German Bundestag Rita Süssmuth, and many others.
As I asked in “Moshe Is Monitoring You,” what do European politicians see in this Russian-born billionaire? Mark Steyn sees nothing in Kantor and to the best of my knowledge has never referred to him or his dedicated campaigning for Muslim immigration and against free speech. Like all other Jews in the Steyniverse, Kantor is a nebbish wringing his hands futilely on the margins as he watches goyim make bad decisions that harm Jewish welfare.
A golden scientific opportunity
So come on, physicists and philosophers: what are you waiting for? Mark
Steyn appears to hold the key to the question of parallel universes. He
should be interviewed closely and, if he gives his permission, become the
subject of detailed neurological examination. His writing strongly suggests
that he is living in a parallel universe where history has taken an entirely
different turn. In his universe, Jews have been powerless bystanders as
powerful gentiles have brought Muslims flooding into Europe to be “the next
generation of antisemites.” In our universe, by contrast, Jews
have overseen and enthusiastically supported the flood, whilst
repeatedly hailing Muslims as their “natural
allies” against White Christian hate.
But there are two other explanations for Steyn’s writing, of course. He might be living in a parallel mental universe rather than a parallel physical one. That is, he might be crazy or deluded. Or he might simply be a liar whose statements are governed not by any regard for truth or historical accuracy but by the age-old principle of “What’s good for the Jews?” It’s not good for the Jews to admit their central role in the immigration disaster and destruction of Western civilization, so Steyn pretends that they are the victims rather than the villains.
Truth and Integrity or Fame and Success?
I go for the third explanation myself: Mark Steyn is a liar and
confidence-trickster operating on the age-old principle of “What’s good for
the Jews?” And also on the principle of “What’s good for Mark Steyn?” If he
were honest about the Jewish role, he would lose his exalted position among
so-called “conservative” pundits. The Jewish writer
Larry Auster never had that exalted position precisely because he wasn’t
dishonest. Auster admitted
the Jewish role in immigration and multiculturalism, and was a severe
critic of Steyn’s
defeatism, shape-shifting and trickery. Auster chose truth and integrity
over success and fame. Steyn has chosen the reverse. So has his side-kick
Laura Rosen Cohen, the “Jewish Mother” who contributes a regular commentary
to Steyn’s website and who seems determined to embody as strongly as
possible the traits identified by Kevin MacDonald as
central to Jewish
activism—she is aggressive, psychologically intense and highly
ethnocentric.
And when I say “ethnocentric,” I mean it. There is one consistently funny thing amid Cohen’s constant failed attempts to be amusing: the way she keeps a special section devoted to “Israel and the Jews,” despite often devoting half or more of the other sections to Jewish topics. And she’s always ready with a would-be amusing put-down for those obsessive and evil anti-Semites who dare to suggest that Jews have any negative influence on the world:
The next round [of Jewish festivities] is not until December, so the plan is to lose the Rosh Hashanah and Sukkot weight in advance of the Chanukah latke and jelly donut season — and well before Passover when, let’s be honest, those delicious and tender gentile children baked into the matzos can really pack on the pounds! (Putting the Infidel in Infidelity (Laura’s Links), 24th October 2019, SteynOnline)
Cohen is referring to the infamous “Blood Libel,” the hate-filled Christian conspiracy theory that Jews kidnapped, tortured and murdered gentile children to use their blood in ritual meals. That’s the sort of ridiculous thing that anti-Semites believe, you see (and I too dismissed the “Blood Libel” as baseless until I read Ron Unz’s fascinating review of the Israeli-Jewish scholar Dr Ariel Toaff’s work on medieval Jewish occultism). But as we’ll see below, Cohen herself sometimes echoes fundamental “anti-Semitic” ideas.
“Disgusting, Jew-hating France”
But Laura Rosen Cohen doesn’t lie only about France. In November 2019 she was “Kvellin’ Around The Christmas Tree” and commenting that “German Chancellor Angela Merkel goes to Auschwitz probably to get more ideas about how to ruin her country with anti-Semitic poison.” Contra Cohen, Angela Merkel opened Germany’s borders to Muslims in 2015 with the full support of Jews in Germany, which is why she was given the highest of honours by the World Jewish Congress in 2019:
World Jewish Congress President Ronald S. Lauder on 28 October honored Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany Angela Merkel with the 2019 WJC Theodor Herzl Award, which recognizes outstanding individuals who work to promote Herzl’s ideals for a safer, more tolerant world for the Jewish people. The award ceremony was held at the Jewish community center in Munich, co-hosted by President of the Jewish Community of Munich and Upper Bavaria & WJC Commissioner for Holocaust Memory Dr. Charlotte Knobloch.
Thanking WJC President Lauder, Chancellor Merkel expressed her heartfelt gratitude for the honor of being chosen as the recipient of this award, saying: “It is humbling for me that I, as a German chancellor, can receive the Theodor Herzl Award today. Jewish life in Germany must be supported — and protected.” (WJC honors German Chancellor Angela Merkel with 2019 WJC Theodor Herzl Award, October 2019)
The righteous shiksa: Angela Merkel is honoured by the World Jewish Congress
Laura Rosen Cohen pretends that Merkel is trying to “ruin her country
with anti-Semitic poison,” but the World Jewish Congress knows the truth:
Merkel is promoting Theodor Herzl’s “ideals for a safer, more tolerant world
for the Jewish people.” When White Christian nations are atomized by Muslim
immigration, Jews feel a sense both of relief and revenge, as I pointed out
in “Roche’s
Revenge,” a discussion of the highly Islamophilic Jewish immigration
minister Barbara Roche.
Immigration-fans Emma Lazarus and Israel Zangwill
But that’s the reality of Jewish behaviour and Laura Rosen Cohen prefers
to avoid discussing that. In January 2020 she was
kvetching that
“Best and brightest immigrant to America from Albania (‘ISIS wannabe’) has
his own version of the American dream: beheading infidels with chainsaws.
How lovely and patriotic. You know the schmaltzy poem on the statue right,
give us your poor, your expert headchoppers, etc.” But who wrote the “schmaltzy
poem” attached to the Statue of Liberty? Why, it was the ethnocentric
Jewish poet Emma
Lazarus (1849-87), who joined the ethnocentric Jewish playwright
Israel Zangwill
(1864-1926) in the highly successful Jewish campaign to falsely portray
America as a “nation
of immigrants” and a “melting
pot” for all creeds and colors.
“Columbia’s Unwelcome Guests”: a
non-schmaltzy view of immigration by the American cartoonist
Frank Beard (1842–1905)
“The Stranger at Our Gate”: another non-schmaltzy view of immigration by Frank Beard
But let’s give Laura Rosen Cohen her due. She does very occasionally admit some of the truth about Jewish behaviour. After CNN reported that “The ‘OK’ hand gesture is now a hate symbol, according to a new report by the Anti-Defamation League [ADL],” Cohen commented: “My Idiot People. I just can’t. Nutcases. You are nutcases, ADL OK?? OK????”
I beg to differ. The ADL are not “nutcases.” Instead, they are very
successful and ruthless defenders and extenders of Jewish power. And
that, of course, includes welcoming Muslims as “natural
allies.” When Donald Trump proposed a “Muslim registery” in 2016, the
ADL chief
Jonathan Greenblatt announced: “If one day Muslim Americans will be
forced to register their identities, then that is the day that this proud
Jew will register as a Muslim.”
Not a nutcase: ruthless Jewish supremacist Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL
Cohen was also wrong when Jewish Democrats in America claimed that in November 2019 “Donald Trump is the biggest threat to American Jews.” She responded with “Stupid Jews gotta keep on stupiding.”
Again, no, it’s not stupidity: it’s standard Jewish hostility towards any politician whose rhetoric (if not his actions) promised to defend White interests rather than harm White interests. Cohen plugged the “stupid line” again in December 2019:President Worst Hitler Ever appears at Israeli-American event, gets completely and utterly love-bombed by Jews, kibbitzes around the whole night, hugs disabled Israeli performers from the Shalva band, has a grand, festive and meaningful Chanukah party at the White House, signs an Executive Order protecting Jewish students from rabid anti-Semitism… and still gets savaged by idiot lefty Jews who just cannot stop stupiding. (A Nickel in the Change Purse, 17th December 2019, SteynOnline)
In fact, “lefty Jews” can’t stop being hostile to White interests and to a president who might potentially advance them. They’re not being stupid: they’re being Jewish. Mark Steyn and Laura Rosen Cohen don’t want to admit this, because the truth is “not good for Jews.” When Steyn quoted from his interview with Cohen in January this year, there was earnest discussion among members of the Mark Steyn fan-club about the causes of anti-Semitism (“Why so often has it been the Jews on the receiving end?”).
Easy to understand, impossible to accept
Of course, no-one suggested that Jews might bear any responsibility for
creating anti-Semitism. But someone did say that Jews will always rise
again, thanks to their “love
of life.” Steyn and Cohen prove that love of lying is also central to
Jewish culture. Indeed, the two loves are intimately related. Deceit and
manipulation are central aspects of biology precisely because they promote
survival. But Jewish lies promote Jewish survival and success at the expense
of Whites. And so anyone interested in White survival should find Jewish
lies both easy to understand and impossible to accept.
