Two Letters: The South and Secession

Two Letters: The South and Secession

Thomas Allen and Deborah Allen

[Editor’s note: the following are two letters sent to the Durham Morning Harold in 1988 addressing attacks on the South, Southerners, and secession by Mr. Curtis Frantz.]

Letter 1
    In his letter of March 25, 1988, Mr. Frantz is correct in that the South did provide an enormous, easily accessible market for the North. (Sounds like an imperialistic remark, doesn’t it?) That is a major reason that the North sought to subject the South even if it meant destroying the South. The North wanted a protected market and supported protective tariffs and import restrictions. The South wanted free trade. Tariffs were to raise revenue and not to limit imports.  (The more effective a protective tariff is, the less revenue collected.) Lincoln ran on a protective tariff platform, which benefitted the North at the expense of the South. In effect, the industrial North wanted to enslave the agrarian South. The protective tariff versus free trade issue had more to do with the South seceding than slavery.
    As for a democratic society, the majority rules. Numerical might makes right, as Mr. Frantz implies. If the United States were a democracy, the Whites, being a majority, could agree to exterminate all Blacks. Living in a democracy, Blacks, according to Mr. Frantz, could not object and secede, for the will of the people had spoken. If he were a good democrat, Mr. Frantz would abide by the will of the majority and accept the extermination as the proper, legal, and moral action to take.
    As for Northern racism, Indiana prohibited blacks from entering that State. The reason that the people of Kansas Territory opposed slavery was not that they abhorred slavery per se. They opposed slavery because slavery meant bringing blacks into their territory. They did not want blacks in their territory. This attitude was typical of the Free-soilers, who were predominantly Northerners.
    As for the abolitionist majority’s concern with the rights of all men, the abusive treatment that White Southerners received during Reconstruction refutes this claim. White Southern political and military leaders are the only group of people in the United States ever to be denied by constitutional amendment the right to hold public office.  The only concern that the abolitionists had about the rights of men was that which contributed to their Nimrodic dream (nightmare!) of universal brotherhood with its one world government, religion, economy, language, culture, and race. The abolitionists had to destroy the South because the South was the principal bulwark to their demonic goal.

Letter 2
    Mr. Curtis Frantz’s letter, which appears on the March 30 editorial page, needs some amplification.
    Slavery could have been abolished by law. But it was not except in the sense of laws enacted to carry out the results of the war. When the Northern States abolished slavery, Northern slaveowners generally sold their slaves to Southern slaveowners instead of setting them free. Many of the Northern emancipating laws had grandfathering clauses such that if the Thirteenth Amendment had not been adopted, there could have been slaves in some Northern States into the 1870s. If the North had desired to abolish slavery, it could have followed England’s example and emancipated slaves without bloodshed. The Northern industrialists, abolitionists, and reformers, however, wanted no part of a peaceful solution. They wanted to destroy the South and her agrarian way of life. And that is what they did. Slavery was just an excuse.
    As Mr. Frantz claims, the Confederacy did represent an antidemocratic movement. In a democracy the majority rules. The will of the majority is law. A democracy is a political system based on the concept that might makes right, where might is expressed in terms of numbers. Mr. Frantz implies as much when he writes that a democratic country cannot exist if any part thereof is free to withdraw. Hence, might makes right. In a democracy numerical might makes right.  (If the U. S. were a true democracy, the whites, being a majority, could agree to exterminate all blacks. Living in a democracy, blacks could not object and secede, for the will of the people has spoken. If he is a good democrat, Mr. Frantz would have to abide by the will of the majority and accept the extermination as the proper, legal, and moral action to take.) Yes, the Confederacy was an antidemocratic movement. The peoples of the Southern States fought to keep the numerically superior North from oppressing them and destroying their way of life.
    To the limited extent that he addresses the right of secession, Mr. Frantz shows his ignorance of the founding of the United States. The States existed before the United States. They created the United States. When ratifying the U.S. Constitution, several States, principally Virginia and New York, explicitly reserved the right to withdraw. Nearly all the leaders of any note of the United States, both North and South, until Lincoln became president acknowledged that States had the right to secede. Most of the Supreme Court rulings that addressed issues arising out of the war implied that the Southern States had the legal right to secede. The war did not prove who was legally or morally right. It did prove that might makes right, which is the lifeblood of a democracy.
    As far as racism is concerned  — and Blacks are as racist as Whites — the Negro has not fared any better in the North than the South. Have not nearly all race riots occurred in the North where Old Glory has always flown?
    I agree with Mr. Frantz that to display and honor the Confederate flag as a symbol of racist feelings is wrong. For the most part, Northerners fighting under the Stars and Stripes had the same, if not a lower, opinion of the Black man as Southerners fighting under the Confederate flag. Therefore, racism could not have been much of an issue or cause of the war.
    Being an antidemocratic person, I do believe that political and social minorities, as well as political and social majorities, should have the right to display their symbols.

The Chinese Virus

The Chinese Virus

Thomas Allen

Presented below are a letter-to-the-editor on the Chinese Virus, a.k.a. the COVID-19, a.k.a. the Chinese flu, and some observations about this virus.

LETTER

A disease far more dangerous and deadlier than COVID-19 is consuming America. That disease is the stupidvirus. At least 90 percent of Americans seem to be infected with the stupidvirus. With rare exceptions, all “our” political leaders and the presstitutes are infected with the supper stupidvirus.

According to https://www.worldometers.info, globally, between January 1 and April 7 of this year, there have been:
129,952 seasonal flu deaths this year.
11,359,394 abortions this year.
82,601 deaths of mothers during birth this year.
449,247 deaths caused by HIV/AIDS this year.
2,194,818 deaths caused by cancer this year.
262,131 deaths caused by malaria this year.
1,335,939 deaths caused by smoking this year.
668,391 deaths caused by alcohol this year.
286,574 suicides this year.
360,746 road traffic accident fatalities this year.
81,043 deaths from COVID-19.

The deaths from COVID-19 are inflated. It includes nearly every death associated with COVID-19 even if the real cause of death is something else.

If “our” political leaders were really concerned with saving lives, they would end abortions. Likewise, the presstitute would be urging ending abortions. Eliminating abortions would have eliminated two-thirds of the deaths since January 1 at no cost.

Unfortunately, “our” political leaders do not care about saving lives. They just want to concentrate all power in their hands, and the presstitutes are aiding them. Worse, most people are begging “our” political leaders to enslave them.

“Our” political leaders and presstitutes lie to us all the time. First, they tell us that wearing masks does no good. Now they tell everyone to wear masks, and some want to make wearing masks mandatory. Why should we believe anything that these known liars tell us? Regrettably, most people suffer from the stupidvirus. Thus, they can no longer think critically or rationally.

The presstitutes have done an excellent job of terrorizing the people into total hysteria. As a result, “our” political leaders have destroyed the economy and the US and State constitutions, especially the inalienable rights of assembly and religion. At least the people are learning to be good communist slaves. (My wife, who is a refugee from a communist regime, witnessed in her country under communism what is now occurring in this country.)

OBSERVATIONS
Some observations about the Chinese Virus plandemic follow.

– The presstitutes have managed to impress on the minds of a large number of Americans, the sheeple, that line from Zulu: “You are all going to die!”

– “Our” political leaders and the medical industry are stating more cases of the Chinese Virus than they are actually occurring. Anyone who dies who has a coronavirus or has been around someone who has or is suspected of having COVID-19 coronavirus is listed as dying from the Chinese Virus. (Coronavirus is one of the viruses that causes the common cold.) Moreover, the tests used to detect COVID-19 have many false positives, that is, these tests show more people infected with the Chinese Virus than there really are. Further, the tests do not even check for the Chinese Virus; they check residue left by the virus itself.

– The models used to estimate the number of cases of the Chinese Virus and the number of hospitalizations and deaths from the Chinese Virus are extremely inaccurate. They grossly overestimate. These models are frequently revised, and new and lower estimates are projected. Thus, the projected deaths for the United States have been revised downward from 90,000 to 81,000 to 61,000. These are the models that “our” leaders, especially governors and mayors, are using to institute totalitarian controls to destroy the economy and enslave the sheeple.

– People should not believe anything that a high-ranking member of the CDC says. (1) High-ranking federal bureaucrats are notorious liars, and nothing that they say should be believed until verified by independent sources. (2) The purpose of the CDC is not to protect or promote the health of the American people. Its purpose is to protect and promote big pharma and the medical industry. Protecting health is incompatible with protecting big pharma and the medical industry as they profit from sick people and not from healthy people. (3) Members of the Deep State and its sympathizers and antitrumpers run the CDC. Good examples of why no one should be employed in the federal bureaucracy for more than 10 years are the power-hungry control freaks at the CDC.

– Big pharma, the presstitutes, “our” political leaders, and the sheeple are clamoring for a vaccine to protect people from the Chinese Virus. By the time a vaccine is developed, it may not be effective because the virus would have most likely mutated. However, the primary purpose of vaccines is not to protect; it is to debilitate and make people dependent on the medical industry with big pharma at the helm. (Some of the proponents of the vaccine anticipate that the vaccine will kill more people than the Chinese Virus.) More important, vaccinations can be used to inject tracking devices into people. Further, some of the vaccines under development are deigned to change the DNA of the vaccinated person.

– The symptoms of the Chinese Virus match those of zinc deficiency. Chloroquine, one of the drugs being used to treat people ill with the Chinese Virus, is a zinc isonophore and has been highly effective in curing people infected with the Chinese Virus. Is the disease credited to the Chinese Virus really a zinc deficiency?

– Of course, an inexpensive cure, such as zinc and chloroquine, must be rejected because big pharma cannot make a fortune from them. Moreover, being paid by big pharma, presstitutes pooh-pooh cheap cures and lobby for a vaccine. Big pharma and the medical industry do not want to cure the Chinese Virus. They want to manage it. Big money is made in managing instead of curing. Unlike curing, which requires short-term treatment, managing requires perpetual treatment.

– Next to micromanaging our lives, “our” political leaders believe that ever more debt will defeat the Chinese Virus. Their solution to the Chinese Virus is to increase the national debt by trillions of dollars and to encourage businesses to incur more debt. Since the national debt is so high that it will never be paid, adding more trillions of dollars does not matter. Actually, all this new debt is supposed to cover the deliberate destruction of the economy. It is a bribe to keep the sheeple from waking up and revolting.

– Since face masks interfere with facial recognition technology, how long will be before “our” political leader outlaw the wearing of masks in public? Further, the common appearance of people wearing face masks in public makes life easier for thieves. They can now enter a store or bank wearing a mask, and no one will notice them being out of the ordinary.

– If anyone wants to know how the German people allowed the National Socialists to gain control of Germany, all he needs to do is to look at how the people are letting their governors establish despotic police states in their States in the name of saving them from the Chinese Virus. Hardly anyone is protesting this despotic tyranny.

– When (if?) this war against the people in the name of protecting them from the Chinese Virus ends, the presstitutes, Democrats, and other antitrumpers will blame President Trump for the destruction of the economy. Yet, governors in collaboration with the presstitutes have destroyed the economy. First Democratic governors began shutting down their States’ economies. Then, the presstitutes scared many Republican governors into closing down their States’ economies. This deliberated destruction of the country’s economy seems to be a conspiracy to bring down Trump. Most antitrumpers hope that it does. (States whose governors have not shut down their States’ economies seem to have fewer cases of and deaths from the Chinese Virus than the States whose governors have aggressively attacked their economies. These noncontrolling governors have let the people and businesses decide for themselves what protective measures are appropriate. That is, they treat their citizens like adults instead of like children.)

– One thing that has received little attention is the likelihood of the Greatest Depression that will probably occur from the governors’ deliberated destruction of the economy. Most likely, millions of premature deaths will occur as a result of the Greatest Depression. Thus, possibly to save a few thousand lives today, millions of lives will be sacrificed in the future. (Adherents of the Chinese Virus plandemic claim that the destruction of the economy will not reduce the number of deaths credited to the virus; it merely spreads the deaths over a longer period.)

– Most governors and mayors are power-hungry control freaks, who care nothing about the constitution of their State or the US Constitution. Violating their State constitutions and the US Constitution, they have closed all businesses that they consider nonessential. (No business is nonessential. If it were, it would have no customers and would soon be out of business.) Nonessential is completely subjective. Some governors consider abortion clinics nonessential since abortion is by choice. Other governors consider abortions essential. (From my perspective, liquor stores and tobacco shops are nonessential. However, these businesses will be among the last that any governor would close. If they were to close them, they would have to contend with rioters violating their social distance ukases. Moreover, bodyguards, chauffeurs, gardeners, maids, butlers and babysitters including daycare are nonessential because people can do these jobs for themselves. Likewise, takeout meals at restaurants are nonessential because people can cook at home.)

– Most governors consider churches as nonessential, and the sheeple and wimpy clergymen are letting them get away with it. Thus, most pastors resort to delivering their messages over the internet. (The internet can serve as an auxiliary, but it should not substitute for physically assembling.) At least, this makes separating pastors who follow God’s law from pastors who follow man’s law easy.

– The US Constitution forbids the US government from preventing the unalienable right of assembly. It provides no exceptions, including plandemics, for the government to violate this right of assembly. Using the fourteenth amendment, the US Supreme Court has extended this guarantee to cover State and local governments. Therefore, whenever a governor or a mayor interferes with the right of assembly, such as forbidding gatherings of more than 10 people, he violates his oath of office. All governors and local officials who have placed restrictions on assembly need to be indicted for violating their oath of office and removed from office. This will never happen because the sheeple prefer being treated like children instead of adults. They prefer safety to liberty. However, by abandoning liberty for safety, they will end up with neither —and rightly so, because they deserve neither.

– Most governors treat the people of their State as though they were children. They believe that people do not have enough intelligence to take action to reduce the likelihood of contracting the Chinese Virus. Perhaps, these governors are right. Most people are responding like young children by believing whatever the government tells them and submitting to all sorts of governmental tyranny with hardly a protest.

– This plandemic is being used as an excuse to implement every totalitarian idea conceivable. It is being used as an excuse to track everywhere people go and everything that they do. Governments are considering using cell phones to track everyone’s movements in real time. Moreover, progressives and other statist want to use the plandemic as an excuse to implement a social credit system similar to that in China to control people’s behavior (a Puritan’s dream). They want to require people to have the government’s permission to travel, work, and shop.

– “Our” political leaders and presstitute are striving to create distrust of one’s neighbors and even one’s family members. They are encouraging people to spy on each other. Thus, stupid sheeple whose lives are so dull and boring that they have to attend to other people's business report people who are four feet apart instead of six feet, crowds of eleven, and other violations of arbitrary unlawful edicts. Consequently, people no longer trust one another and society degenerates. Such is the modus operandi of communists.

– If the Chinese Virus plandemic is a psychological operation (psyop) as some speculate, then it has been highly successful. Those behind it never dreamed that they could have terrorized the masses so quickly and easily into total hysteria begging to be enslaved and begging to live in poverty as they beg to have their economy destroyed.

– Even if the Chinese Virus plandemic is not a psychological operation, control freaks in government and their presstitute coconspirators must be partying with great joy. With ease, the presstitutes terrorized the sheeple into total submission to the control freaks in government — thus, enslaving themselves to the control freaks.

– The United States are no longer the home of the brave and the land of the free. Now, they are the home of the fearful and the land of the slave.

– At least one good thing has come from the Chinese Virus plandemic. Now, we know that we do not need all those expensive school buildings to educate children. Also, we do not need to bus children to and from schools. Unfortunately, the people who suffer from the stupidvirus have so destroyed their brains that they can no longer think critically or rationally, so they have not learned this lesson.

Think Tanks and Artificial Intelligence

Think Tanks and Artificial Intelligence

Thomas Allen

Under discussion now is how many jobs will artificial intelligence (AI) replace. Among the easiest jobs that AI can do is that of the “intellectuals” at the typical progressive-liberal-Democratic (PLD), neoconservative-establishment conservative-Republican (NECR), and libertarian think tanks. Their jobs are so repetitive and predictable that AI would have no problem duplicating them. A simple algorithm can do their jobs.

Progressive-Liberal-Democratic Think Tanks
PLD think tanks believe that nonwhites are good; Whites are so bad that they must be eradicated. Likewise, with Western Civilization, it must also be eradicated. However, the Southerner is so egregiously vile and evil that he must be terminated through all eternity. Needless to say, Southern culture, heritage, and traditions must be annihilated. Consequently, nothing good can be said about Whites and Western Civilization and especially about Southerners and the South.

As for religion, PLD think tanks believe that Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and all other religions are good or at least acceptable except Christianity, which is abominable. Secularism and atheism are exceedingly good. However, the primary religion of PLD think tanks is the worship of their idol, the state. They continuously feed the state, so it can grow unbounded.

As for economics, PLD think tanks believe that Marxism and statism in all their forms are good. Central planning is desirable: The more regulations, the better. An economy that depends on a free market and free enterprise is bad.

The welfare state and dependency on the government are good; independence is bad. Anything that makes people more dependent on the government, i.e., that enslaves them more, is good. Anything that frees people from the government is detrimental.

Because PLS think tanks distrust the people with weapons, they want to disarm the people. (When the people are disarmed, they offer much weaker resistance to despotism.) However, when these same people become governmental employees, i.e., politicians, bureaucrats, and soldiers, they become saints who can be trusted with weapons. Thus, PLS think tanks trust bureaucrats, soldiers, and politicians with weapons.

PLD think tanks claim that homosexual, interracial, and other illicit sexual acts are admirable while heterosexual sex within marriage is deplorable.

Furthermore, PLD think tanks maintain that integration and amalgamation are good. Segregation and separation are cataclysmic unless nonwhites segregate or separate from Whites, then it is admirable. Diversity is of upmost importance although their policies destroy it.

PLD think tanks are strong proponents of reform and promote change for change’s sake — but always in the direction of more governmental control.

Neoconservative-Establishment Conservative-Republican Think Tank
NECR think tanks are almost identical to PLD think tanks. The primary difference is that NECR think tanks want to implement the programs promoted by PLD think tanks more slowly and make them more efficient, i.e., more despotic and tyrannical. Moreover, whereas PLD think tanks are Zionists, NECR think tanks are staunch Zionists. Also, NECR think tanks are more addicted to war than are PLD think tanks. NECR think tanks never saw a war that they did not like. Thus, they are more enthralled than PLD think tanks with an ever-expanding American Empire. (PLD think tanks are also supporters of an expanding American Empire.)

Like PLD think tanks, NECR think tanks also hate Whites. Thus, they are hostile toward Western Civilization, although they usually conceal their hostility. Although they disparage Southerners and the South, they are not as venomous as PLD think tanks.

Though NECR think tanks elevate Christianity more than PLD think tanks, they subordinate it to Islam and especially Judaism.

While they give lip service to free-market economics, NECR think tanks support business-government partnerships and collaboration between businesses and government.

Although NECR think tanks often praise independence, they also seek to enslave the people to the government. Like PLD think tanks, they are proponents of the welfare state; they just want one that is more efficient. Nevertheless, they often attack welfare for individuals, except veterans. However, they are reluctant to criticize welfare in the form of subsidies, trade restrictions, etc. for businesses, especially big businesses.

Being Janus-faced, NECR think tanks defend the right of the people to possess weapons while they eagerly compromise such rights away. Their primary disagreement with PLD think tanks is about how quickly the people are disarmed.

While not as ardent supporter and promoter of homosexual and other illicit sexual acts, except miscegenation, which they fine admirable, they have no real problem with homosexual or most other illicit sexual acts. However, they are not hostile toward heterosexual marriages.

Like PLD think tanks, NECR think tanks maintain that integration and amalgamation are good. Segregation and separation are cataclysmic. Whereas PLD think tanks support nonwhites segregating and separating themselves from Whites, NECR think tanks do not.

Also, like PLD think tanks, NECR think tanks praise diversity, but not as highly. Moreover, like PLD think tanks, NECR think tanks advocate policies that destroy diversity.

The major difference between NECR think tanks and PLD think tanks is that the PLD think tanks rush forward into Marxist and statism and their concomitant despotism with abandonment while NECR think tanks cautiously move forward into Marxism and statism to make their despotism more efficient.

Libertarian Think Tanks
Like PLD and NECR think tanks, libertarian think tanks support anything that contributes to the destruction of the White man’s Western Civilization, which birthed libertarianism, and to the White man himself.

Libertarian think tanks believe that corporations, especially international corporations, and their leaders are innately good; governments and governmental leaders are innately bad. Political borders are bad.

For libertarian think tanks, homosexual, interracial, and other illicit sex acts are good. However, heterosexual marriages are not necessarily bad.

Religiously, libertarian think tanks are agnostic with a predilection toward human secularism.

Also, they oppose the welfare state and governmental control of the people. However, corporate control of the people is acceptable.

According to libertarian think tanks, the people should be armed and the government should be disarmed. Thus, libertarian think tanks trust the people with weapons, but they distrust governmental employees with weapons.

In agriculture, financial profit per acre and not production per acre is what is important. Moreover, money trumps culture, heritage, traditions, and similar intangibles. However, unlike PLD and NECR think tanks, libertarian think tanks abhor businesses collaborating with governments to gain economic advantage. For libertarian think tanks, free market and free enterprise are always good; governmental intervention in the economy is bad, i.e., Marxism and statism are evil. Consequently, libertarians never worship the state; they condemn it.

Conclusion
All three of these think tanks have several things in common. First, they loathe the White race. Being albusphobes, they look forward with joy to the day when the White race no longer exists. Consequently, they oppose any action, especially by governments, to preserve the White race. Second, these think tanks abominate the Southerner and the South so intensely, that they passionately strive to genocide the Southerner and to erase the South from the memory of mankind, except as the example of unadulterated evil — something so evil that it even makes Satan look holy. Third, all three advocate policies that will destroy Western Civilization. Fourth, these think tanks adore globalism and cosmopolitanism and abhor localism and provincialism. They favor open borders and unrestricted, unlimited immigration because such action is highly detrimental to the White race and its Western Civilization. (NECR, libertarian, and some PLD think tanks deny that they have such hatred of the White Race, the Southerner, the South, and Western Civilization and seek their destruction. Nevertheless, destruction is the result of the policies that they advocate whatever their motives, and, furthermore, that is how they act.)

One of the easiest jobs for AI to take over is that of the “intellectuals” of the typical PLD, NECR, and libertarian think tanks. Their thought patterns are so routine and predictable that even a mediocre programmer could write the program.

Review of McBreen’s article on Black Protest at Syracuse University

Review of McBreen’s article on Black Protest at Syracuse University

Thomas Allen

In his article “Black Students at Syracuse U Protest in Favor of Self-Segregation,” November 23, 2019,  Keleen McBreen rebukes Black students who are protesting. These students want to be allowed to opt-out of rooming with White students in the college dormitories.

He starts his article by declaring that the protest “would have Martin Luther King Jr. rolling over in his grave.” The implication is that King would object to the goal of the protesters to segregate. McBreen, as are all the other Infowars reporters and especially its boss, Alex Jones, is like nearly all conservatives concerning King. They actually believe that this Communist sympathizer and frontman was a conservative. (With each passing day, distinguishing between a communist and a conservative becomes more difficult, especially in the social realm. They may be right: The communist King has transformed into conservative King without ever changing his position on anything. After all, the United States have already implemented about 80 percent of the planks of the Communist Manifesto.)

If the protest would cause King to roll over in his grave, it would be in support of the protesters. King did not promote integration for the sake of integration. He demanded integration for many reasons, none of which are those proclaimed by his conservative toadies. First, it satisfied his lust and the lust of his comrades and handlers by destroying the South and genociding the Southerner. Moreover, it leads to the destruction of the White race in America. Reducing the White race to insignificance would make the United States easy prey for the communist. (As the White race has declined, communism has become more prevalent.) Furthermore, King sought integration because it makes Blacks a privileged class, the new American royalty, and advances Black power. King’s integration has gone a long way in elevating Blacks to superiority, in converting the United States to communism, and in reducing Whites to insignificance.

McBreen writes that this protest results from “liberal indoctrination at American colleges,” which leads to negative effects like the reasons for this protest. Liberal indoctrination demonizes Whites and glorifies nonwhites.

This protest shows that many Blacks still adhere to the Old Morality of protecting, preserving, and promoting their own race. McBreen, like most conservatives and libertarians, adheres to the New Morality of scarifying the races, especially the White race, on the altar of humanity. The New Morality amalgamates humanity into motley mongrel man or, as William Carr calls him, UNESCO man. At least, McBreen wants to sacrifice the Black race along with the White race on the altar of humanity and his corrupt conservative (or is it libertarian) ideology. Unlike McBreen, Alex Jones, and most conservatives and libertarians, these Blacks know that segregation preserves while integration destroys.

(Although Jones and his staff adamantly oppose globalism, they promote policies of globalism that lead to the dissolution of the races [species] of man, which is a goal of globalism, illuminism.)

Whites are hellbent on annihilating themselves. If the White race survives, it will be because nonwhites refuse to associate with Whites.

This protest also illustrates the hypocrisy of American universities in particular and America in general. If a group of White students were protesting to have the privilege of opting out of having nonwhite roommates, the only attention that the administrators would give them would be to expel them. (Nearly all Black leaders maintain that Blacks should be allowed to segregate, but Whites should not have the right or privilege to segregate themselves. Many Whites, especially liberals, agree.)

McBreen is correct about one thing. Students who hate Syracuse University are free to leave. They are not prisoners of the University.

Moreover, if the school administrators yield to this demand for segregation, Black students will demand more. When will the demands stop? Will the demands continue until Syracuse University is a completely Black university void of any non-Blacks?

Cush and Ethiopia

Cush and Ethiopia

Thomas Allen

[Editor’s note: Footnotes in the original are omitted. The footnotes contain the King James Version of the scripture being discussed.]

    There is good evidence that “Cush” or Kûwsh, son of Ham, is not synonymous with the region south of Egypt, biblical African Ethiopia. In the Scriptures, it is seldom, if ever, used as a synonym for biblical African Ethiopia. This is especially true for Genesis 2:13, 10:6ff; Numbers 12:1; 2 Samuel 18:21; 2 Chronicles 14:8ff, 21:16; Psalm 87:4; Isaiah 11:11, 20:3, 43:3, 45:14; Ezekiel 28:10; and Habakkuk 3:7.
    Most, if not all, biblical dictionaries identify Cush with Ethiopia, a region south of Egypt. However, most mention the existence of an Arabian Cush. The biblical African Ethiopia stretched from Aswan in present-day Egypt through northern and eastern present-day Sudan into northern present-day Ethiopia. It was the region between the junction of the Blue and White Nile to the First Cataract, the location of present-day Aswan and biblical Syene.
    In the Septuagint and Vulgate, “Cush” is usually translated “Ethiopia.” In the King James Version, Kûwsh is translated “Cush” eight times and “Ethiopia” nineteen times. Kûwshîy (“Cushite”) is translated “Ethiopian” eight times and “Ethiopians” twelve times. Many other translation follow the King James Version. The Hebrew words should have been consistently and correctly translated “Cush” or “Cushite.” Such translation would have avoided the confusion of identifying Cush with modern-day Ethiopia, Nubia, or biblical African Ethiopia.
    Most often, Cush refers to a people or region in Arabia instead of the region in Africa south of Egypt. As noted above, a number of Scriptural passages support this conclusion. Some of them are reviewed below.
    First, Moses married a Cushite woman (Numbers 12:1) of Midian (Exodus 2:16,21; 3:1). Midian is in northwest Arabia and eastern Sinai. Zipporah is the only wife of Moses mentioned in the Pentateuch. Did Moses travel to the Upper Nile to Nubia or Abyssinia to find his wife or did he take a wife in eastern Sinai or northwest Arabia? The latter. (Some commentators claim that Zipporah is not the Cushite woman. Their argument is based on rejecting Midian as part of Cush. However, if Cush was Arabia, as most Scriptures referring to Cush imply, instead of Abyssinia or Nubia, then this claim loses its weight.) Cushites include Midianites and other Arabic people. In Habakkuk 3:7 Cushan is mentioned in parallel with Midian identifying two names for the same region. (In Hebrew “cushan” (kûwshân) is believe to be derived from “cush”(kûwsh).  Hence, “cushan” is another name for “cush.”) In Judges 1:16, Moses’ father-in-law is called a Kenite. The Midianites, Kenites, and Cushites referred to in these passages are all the same people.
    Second, in Ezekiel 29:10, God says that He will make Mizraim (or Egypt) a land of desolation from the tower of Syene (Seveneh) to the borders of Cush. Syene was Aswan near the Nile’s first cataract on the border of Egypt and Nubia (Ethiopia). If Cush is synonymous with Ethiopia, then the passage reads, “from Ethiopia to Ethiopia,” which is nonsensical. However, from Syene to Cush beyond the Isthmus of Suez gives the passage sense. Cush refers to Egypt’s eastern border, not its southern border. Hence, Cush refers to Arabia or a region of Arabia.
    Third, in Genesis 10:7-8, lists the descendants of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, Sabtechah, Sheba, Dedan, and Nimrod. Nimrod is associated with Mesopotamia. The remainder are associated with the Arabian Peninsula. However, Seba appears to have crossed over to Africa and settled along the coast of present-day Ethiopia and Djibouti.
    Fourth, in Genesis 2:13, before the Noachian Flood, Cush was identified with Mesopotamia. This identification assumes that Eden was in or near Mesopotamia. However, because “Cush” is translated “Ethiopia,” some place Eden in present-day Ethiopia. Thus, the four rivers flowing from Eden are the White Nile, The Blue Nile, the Atbara, and the Tekezé (Takkaze). More likely, Eden was where the Pamir Plateau of Central Asia is now with the four rivers being the Indus, the Jaxartes (Syr Darya), the Oxus (Amu Darya), and the Tarim (see Allen’s Adam to Abraham for a more detailed discussion). This would place the original Cush in Central Asia. In any event, it is not in Africa where the King James version places it. However, if the Noachian Flood was global, trying to locate Eden based on post-Flood geography is ridiculous. After the Flood washed away all land and covered much of the planet with sedimentary deposits, which in some place is more than a mile thick, the geography before the Flood bears no resemblance to the geography after it.
    Fifth, the description given in Isaiah 11:11 indicates that Cush is Arabia. This verse names countries to which the Jews were dispersed during the Exile. Pathros was part of Egypt (Ezekiel 29:4). Hamath was north of Phoenicia. Elam and Shinar bordered the Persian Gulf. Islands of the sea were the islands of Greece and the Mediterranean. Cush must have represented Arabia and not some country 1500 miles away. If Cush is Arabia, then the countries named circumscribe Judea. That Jews were dispersed to nearby Arabia, part of which was under the rule of Babylon, is highly probable and likely. That Jews were dispersed to a far away country beyond the southern border of Egypt and beyond Babylon’s rule is highly improbable and unlikely. Furthermore, if Cush here is not equivalent to Arabia, then this immense peninsula, which was very familiar — much more so than Ethiopia — to the Judeans, would be omitted from the list of countries around Judea. (The King James Version got this one right.) Moreover, the Jews were recalled from the regions in which the remnant remained. However, at that time, the Jews had never colonized Ethiopia and were never carried there in their captivity.
    Sixth, according to 2 Chronicles 14:13, the Cushites (or Ethiopians) fled to Gerar, which is located in southern Palestine in the foothills of Judean mountains in southern Philistia; it was between the Kingdom of Judea and the wilderness of Shur and Paran. Hence, it is the extreme northwest of Cush (Arabia) to which Zerah fled. Thus, the battle was in northwest Arabia. Zerah was probably a powerful chieftain coming out of Arabia instead of a Nubian from south of Egypt.
    Seventh, in 2 Chronicles 21:16, the Arabs are described as being near, living near, or located by the Cushites (or Ethiopians in most translations). In this verse, Cushites must be in Arabia instead of Africa. Arabs at this time were much nearer Arabia than Africa.
    Eighth, in Psalm 87:4, the Psalmist names Rahab (or Egypt), Babylon, Philistia, Tyre, and Ethiopia (Cush). This verse describes the countries encompassing Zion or Judea: Rahab to the south and southwest, Philistia to the west, Tyre to the northwest and north, Babylon to the north and east, Cush to the southeast and south. Here Cush must refer to Arabia, not Africa, to complete the encompassing.
    Several verses are occasionally cited to prove that Ethiopia (Cush) was south of Egypt and, therefore, Ethiopians were Negroes. These verses include 2 Kings 19:9; 2 Chronicles 14:9-14; Isaiah 20:3-5, 43:3, 45:14; Jeremiah 13:23, 46:9; and Ezekiel 30:5, 38:2-6. A few of these are discussed below.
    First, Jeremiah 13:23 is used to prove that Ethiopians were Negroes; thus, Ethiopia would then be in Africa south of Egypt. This verse does not identify the race of the Ethiopians and, therefore, does not prove that Ethiopians were Negroes (they were Melanochroi regardless of their location in Nubia and Abyssinia or Arabia). However, this verse does imply the immutability of the races, species, of humans.
    Second, in 2 Kings 19:9, Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia (Cush) was more likely an Arab than an African. The king of Assyria observed Tirhakah advancing toward Hezekiah. The Assyrian king’s ambassador advised Hezekiah that Tirhakah would not save Judea from the Assyrians. Was it more likely that the Assyrians learned of an African army before Hezekiah, whose kingdom was contiguous Africa? Or, was it more likely that the Assyrians would have notice an army coming out of Arabia before Hezekiah did? One point in favor of Tirhakah coming from Africa instead of Arabia is that African Ethiopians had recently gained control of Egypt.
    Third, excluding Magog, which is unidentifiable, although some believe it is Russia, the nations described in Ezekiel 38:2-6 are in or around Assyria if Cush is understood to mean Arabia instead of the region south of Egypt and Libya is not the region west of Egypt. The King James Version translates bow as Libya. Most other translations translates bow as “Put” (In Genesis 10:6 and 1 Chronicles 1:8, the King James Version translates bow as Phut, and elsewhere it translates it as “Libya” or “Libyans.”) Although the location of Put or Phut is disputed, most place it in Africa. It is most commonly identified with Libya. It is also identified as east Africa bordering the Red Sea, i.e., from Upper Egypt to Somaliland. Based on the assumption that Cush is the region south of Egypt, Put has been identified with Punt, present-day Somaliland. If Cush is in Arabia and Lud refers to the Lydians in northeast Egypt (see the discussion on Lud below), then Put would be to the east of Egypt. “According to Glaser the name [Put] first referred to E. Arabia, was then transferred to the S. Arabian incense coast, and was eventually applied to the African coast of Somaliland” (Davis p, 504).
    Fourth, Ezekiel 30:5 mentions Cush (Ethiopia, KJV) together with Put (Libya, KJV), Lud (Lydia, KJV), and Chub. Chub or Cub is probably Lub or Lubim. Like Lub, Cub is generally identified as Lybia. Likewise, Lud or Ludim is often identified as Libya. However, some identify Lud with the Lydians who came from Lydia in Asia Minor and settled in northeast Egypt. Others identify Lud with a Berber tribe, a tribe in Cyrenaica, or Ionian and Carian mercenaries. Another possibility is mercenaries from Lydia in Asia Minor. In any event, Lubim were mercenaries, who were famous as archers. Nevertheless, the connection of the countries mentioned in Ezekiel 30:5 implies a geographical proximity. However, the proximity may be to the east of Egypt as well as to the south of Egypt. Arabia is a better choice because the Cushites are known to have settle in Arabia. However, that the Cushites or any other Hamites settle south of Egypt is doubtful.
    When the Hebrew Scriptures were translated into Greek, the Septuagint translation, the translators translated “Cush” as “Ethiopia.” It is this maltranslation that has led to confusion of the Arabs with Nubians and the Arabian Peninsula with the Upper Nile.
    In Greek “Ethiopian” means “scorched-face” or “burned-face.” Hence, “Ethiopian” is a dark-complexioned person, such as a suntanned Arab. It was applied to the inhabitants of Arabia and northwest India. Herodotus described Asiatic Ethiopians in the army of Xerxes, who were different from the African Ethiopians. Only later, after 525 B. C., did the Greeks become aware of the Nubians, who were Melanochroi, and true Negroes south of Egypt. Over time “Ethiopian” became reserved only for these people.
    In summary “Cush” refers to Arabia in its widest sense and Arabian tribes, who are mostly a dark-complexion, Melanochroi, in chapter ten of Genesis. With perhaps the exception of a few passages in the later books of the Bible where geographical precision is sacrificed for poetry, “Cush” means Arabia not Abyssinia or Nubia. Where it may refer to an African people, it refers to Nubians and true Ethiopians, neither of whom are Negroes, but who are Melanochroi. It never includes any of the Negro races.

Rebuttals to Some Unlimited Immigration Arguments

Rebuttals to Some Unlimited Immigration Arguments

Thomas Allen

Below are rebuttals to arguments that immigration helps the economy and does not destroy languages or genocide people.

Destructiveness of Uncontrolled Immigration
Ask the Tasmanians how much immigrants helped their economy. Oh, I forgot, immigrants drove the Tasmanians to extinction. One would need a seance to ask them.

Ask the Indians of Hispaniola how much immigrants helped their economy. Again, I forgot that immigrants, mostly from Africa, drove them out of existence; what was not killed off were bred out of existence.

How well are the Chinese immigrants, who are genociding the Tibetans, helping the Tibetans economically? It may help the Chinese, but it is driving the Tibetans to extinction.

Then there are the Palestinians. Jewish immigrants have taken much of the land of the Palestinians and drove most Palestinians into large-scale concentration camps into which the Israelis fire missiles. Immigration may have helped the immigrant Jews economically, but it has done little for the native Palestinians.

Immigration was a great benefit to the Roman Empire. It so utterly destroyed the Roman Empire that nearly a thousand years were needed before the economy of the area covered by the old Empire returned to where it was before immigration destroyed it.

Mexico lost Texas to Anglo-American settlers primarily because they came as colonists and not as immigrants. They were of a different culture and language than Mexico and came in such numbers that they did not have to assimilate.

Immigration and Language
Some opponents of open-borders-unrestricted immigration claim that unrestricted immigration can change, corrupt, and even obliterate the language of a country. Some supporters of unrestricted immigration claim that such a notion is nonsense.

As evidence to support their assertion that unrestricted immigration does not destroy language, they point to the French-speaking Canadians. French-speaking Canadians have preserved their language for centuries in a sea of English speakers.

The proponents overlook the North American Indians. The North American Indians drowned in a flood of unrestricted immigration from Europe. As a result, many Indian languages are now extinct. Furthermore, many tribes became extinct — having been genocided by disease, war, and miscegenation. Moreover, not only do many remaining tribes no longer speak the language of their ancestors, none know how to speak it.

The Romans offer another example that supports those who oppose unrestricted immigration. Failing to control immigration, the Romans lost their Empire. If it were not for the Catholic Church adopting Latin as its official language, Latin would have died with the Empire. It would have gone the way of Gothic, Doric, Hittite, Babylonian, Assyrian, Punic, Egyptian, Coptic, and many other dead ancient languages.

Both the opponents and proponents of unrestricted immigration can find examples to support their argument. Nevertheless, the weight of the evidence supports the opponents.

North American Indians
As discussed above, many Indian languages and even Indian tribes have perished under the weight of uncontrolled immigration. Moreover, as a result of uncontrolled immigration, some Indian tribes have deteriorated so much that they no longer use genetics to decide who is a member of the tribe. Instead, they use cultural identity: Anyone who identifies with the culture of the tribe is a member. (In this respect, they are like many Southerners, Paul Gottfried [a Northerner], and some writers of Abbeville Institute. They identify Southerners, a term that they use to cover not only Whites, but also Blacks and presumably other races, by culture instead of genetics. Thus, they err. Correctly speaking, “Southerner” is an ethnic group, i.e., a genetic and cultural group, and identifies Whites born and reared in the South and Whites who have lived in the South so long that they are indistinguishable from native Southern Whites. Moreover, Blacks in the South differ culturally from Southerners and, also, from Whites.)

Review of Brennan’s Swamp-Draining Proposals

Review of Brennan’s Swamp-Draining Proposals

Thomas Allen

In his article “Five Modest Swamp-Draining Proposals,” Chronicles (August 2019), Mark Brennan sets forth a five-point plan to reduce the size of the federal government by requiring federal employees to live like the rest of America.  Most of his suggestions appear to be limited to Washington, D.C. and perhaps the surrounding suburbs. His proposals should be extended to cover all federal facilities, whether owned or leased by the federal government.
Frequently, he refers to “federal employees.” By federal employees, he seems to imply civil service employees and perhaps presidentially appointed bureaucrats. The term should be extended to cover not only civil service employees, but also to cover the president, members of the cabinet, all other presidential appointees, all federal judges, all members of Congress and their staff, all military and naval personnel, and everyone else who receives a paycheck from the federal government. (“Federal employees” used in the following discussion is used in this broad sense.)
1. Brennan’s first proposal is to remove all air conditioners and fans from the geographic limits of Washington, D.C. This proposal should be extended to all federal facilities, wherever they are located. Moreover, it should be extended to heating. No thermostat should be set above 50ºF. Hospitals are the only exception to this cooling and heating proposal.
One of the great benefits of this proposal is that it shows that the federal government is serious about climate change. The federal government would be leading by example instead of by coercion. By reducing its fuel consumption, it reduces its carbon footprint. Certainly, federal employees are willing to make such a small sacrifice to save the planet.
2. Brennan’s second proposal is to require all federal employees to prepare and file their own taxes without assistance from anyone — including spouses, accountants, tax preparers, and tax preparation software. Further, he recommends that if a federal employee miscalculates his taxes due, he pays a penalty of 100 times the error. Moreover, if the person fails to pay the penalty within 30 days, he spends one day in jail for each $100 owed. (Presumably, if he fails to pay his taxes when due, he suffers the same penalty.)
Although nearly all taxpayers can find more valuable things to do with their time and money than compiling the information needed to file a tax return, completing and filing the forms, and paying the taxes due, Congress and the IRS cannot think of anything more valuable for taxpayers to do. Within a year after preparing their own tax forms, Congress would make significant changes in the income tax code and greatly simplify it. If Americans are really fortunate, Congress would abolish the income tax.
3. Brennan’s third proposal requires the two senators and the house representative to serve as casualty notification officers for the deaths of all military personnel in their district. Thus, they would see firsthand the anguish that their undeclared wars cause spouses, children, and parents. Currently, members of Congress bear no responsibility for endangering the lives of American soldiers for no reason other than transferring ever more wealth and power to the rich and powerful.
4. Brennan’s fourth proposal caps the annual pay of all federal employees at the current median household income, which was $61,372 for 2017. Thus, half the American households live on an income less than this amount.
Many politicians platitudinously claim to “feel our pain.” This reduction in their pay would offer them an opportunity to feel some of it.
Brennan’s proposal needs to be extended to cover benefits like paid vacation days, paid sick leave, health insurance, payments into retirement plans, etc.
5. Brennan’s fifth proposal requires all federal employees to send their children to the public schools in Washington, D.C. Presumably, he covers not only those employees who live in Washington but also the surrounding suburban cities. This proposal should be extended to all federal employees throughout the country.
Such an action would greatly increase the diversity of the public schools in Washington. And, what politician can resist more diversity? Moreover, this proposal is an egalitarian approach to education, and politicians are notorious for spouting their love of equality. This proposal provides the poor with the same quality of education that the rich receive.
Implementation of these proposals would remind the president, high-ranking bureaucrats, congressmen, senators, and judges how the average American lives and to keep them in touch with reality.
