The Envious and Evil East

…the cradle of civilization….and its tomb.

Sleepless at 3:30 AM, I took a trip around the world, girdling the globe thanks to the glowing portal resting on my knees.

My BMD and I are fantasizing about travel: as soon as we can, as soon as it is permitted, we will be OFF! Like we have always done. Away, come away!

But that doesn’t seem likely. China and Araby have stretched out their long,!curling claw-like fingernails, stealthily erected their noisome black tents, through all the West’s beloved capitals.

The plague China loosed last winter is not abating , much as I want to believe it is. Europe is locking down again. In Spain, private gatherings are now limited to six people. Midnight curfews in Paris and Berlin! (Um, why? Does Covid turn more deadly at the stroke of twelve?.)

Six people. Worship services 1/3 of capacity. Feliz Navidad, Espãna! !

China has crippled, invalided, the mighty West. Yes. It is finished. Surf around the globe as I did this morning, and you cannot help but realize it

And yesterday, In a small town in France, a teacher was beheaded, apparently because he had done a class on the cartoons of Mohammad which led to the Charlie Hebdo massacre—even though he had suggested the Muslim students might want to leave the room So as not to see the drawings. BEHEADED. Do I hear any gasps? No, I don’t. We were de-sensitized to this ancient barbarism, committed pursuant to the explicit exhortation of the Koran, oh, 15 years ago now? The novelty has worn off. But as this incident demonstrates, these arcane eastern cruelties have not gone away. It’s just, this isn’t news any more.

The silk and the sand. They are for binding, for desiccating. It’s what they do simply by dint of the fact that those are their innate properties. We should have crushed the creatures of the silkworm and the scorpion, stamped them out, during the period where they were tiny, where they had died back, their once widespread empires recaptured, their people wretched and deprived. But no: the West coddled them, nursed them along, like one might feed the cub of some deadly beast which takes food from the human hand, biding its time until its jaws have grown to the strength and size necessary to sever that hand and savage its owner.

Prove that I lie.

  1. I’m feeling you, my sister.

    In 1991 we had the forces in the Middle East to force the mohammedans back into their caves for at least another 1000 years.
    What did we do? We ceased combat operations after merely 24 hours of kicking ass.

    Colon Powell, affirmative action hire, I am looking at you and that fire in my eyes ain’t the spark of love.

  2. My mom who has said nothing to me but, “When are you coming home?” for the last 30 years is now begging me to not come see her because she is scared I will give her the Flu Manchu.

    When President Trump went into Walter Reed, I commented he should nuke Beijing. I was not kidding. We should unleash our nuclear arsenal on those bastards and let the mother foxtrotting chips fall where they may.

    Change my mind!

      1. Hypatia, I always hated the US State Department but now I am seeing them as the biggest threat to Western Civilization. The DC Swamp monsters love ‘State.’ That should tell you all you need to know.

        We must destroy “State” to save the Union. This is not hyperbole.

      2. The Union…More and more I’m thinking It can’t survive, we’ll have to regionalize. Kurt Schlichter wrote a book last year, and I couldn’t finish it cuz, he’s just not a very good writer, Much as I ike his ideas— but th premise was the US had split, the coasts were woke Lefties, the interior PLU. I could really see that happening now, but: I’m in Pa, what if I were on the wrong side of the divide? My land, my beloved land! It is no small thing to abandon that.

      3. It has to survive, Hypatia. The minute we break up, China moves in.

        Having said that, I think from time to time about just putting my mother in my car and driving west. She is 88 years old, and has never lived anywhere else. She doesn’t want to live anywhere else, but if things got bad enough….

      4. Yes JaC but think in practice how awful, how dangerous, that would be. For years I’ve read about ha partition in India, when Pakistan was created. Whenever the migrating groups of Muslims andHindus encountered each other, a massacre ensued. And that on TOP of leaving their homes. Really it doesn’t bear thinking about. Pray that it come not in our generation.

      5. “My land, my beloved land!”

        My clan has acquired farmland in SEMO which should be safe from the zombie BLM and antifa hoards for a few more years.

        I’m thinking I could arrange a sell of a couple of acres or more to y’all Yankees. Just don’t mention Honest Abe Lincoln or General Sherman during contract negotiations, por favor.

  3. Thailand has just floated a trial balloon 90-day tourist visa. Maybe BMD and you could come to Chiang Rai province and help me return the Earth to its rightful axis?

    1. I’ll check! We are desperate to travel, it’s always been such a big part of our lives! But difficult now since our daughter is doing Harvard Law School at the dining room table….

      1. Come here during Christmas break and bring her with you. I could probably rent you guys a nice ‘villa’ in my gated community. My house is for single women only, sorry about that but we had to change our policy due to an unfortunate ‘situation’ that got out of control.
