Dwight Eisenhower our Supreme Commander in WWII worried that the anti semitism that brought Hitler to power would, regrettably, someday rise again.
Eisenhower became President of Columbia until he left a few years later for the White House.
So it is sad today when the Columbia President had to call out New York Police to dispel antisemitism on its campus.

That Bawl you keep threatening to take home must be tethered here by a rubber band.

You suffer from the persistent grandiose delusion that my cessation of chatting with you is the same as me leaving the forum.  I remain here, in the cyber sense, to enjoy and learn from the observations, japes, jests and zingers of Yank, Lime, Larry, Fac, and DeeJ.

Never Forget.

We will not forget.

After Charlottesville you will never leave our sights.

The antisemitism of the white man is at least ten times more dangerous than the antisemitism of the brown man in this country, as any Jew can tell you.

Youtube

"'Fairytale of New York' played at Shane MacGowan's Funeral"

Live band, mostly older folk, ...
now that's a jumpin, rockin, funeral!
Dancing, cheering, clapping.
What a great tribute.

Fac is correct!

One of the shortcomings in our national memory to the many POGROMS here is the USA following the end of Reconstruction in 1878 and the conclusion of WWI that left Black Americans bereft of properties and businesses wiping out generational wealth.

Instead of telling Black people to Never Forget we are told to Get Over It as Christopher Rufo and Republican legislatures try to wipe out our history and reverse that gains of the Civil Rights movement.

SkyNews today:

"Australia's muticulturalism at 'crossroads'."

#####

Multiculturalism is a menace.
It's been a dismal failure in Britain/Europe, former UK PM Cameron and former German Chancellor
Merkel said so.
Well it's all their own fault, the politicians and voters there were warned but refused to listen, it's too late now, the clock has struck midnight and cannot be wound back.

Same in Australia but the politicians and voters are still living in a world of fantasy.

Bibi defied the Biden Do not and clearly showed Iran Israel determination.
Now America needs a similar leader to counter the misguided Obama/Biden
Appeasement to the mullahs.

I walked thru the streets of Tehran yesterday (Youtube).
No traffic lanes on the roads, vehicles just do their best.

Went into a mall, 3 levels, shops had latest baggy pants, T shirts and baseball caps for men. Sneakers of all types, jewellery stores...other assorted stores 'as usual'.

Hard to walk on sidewalks, merchants cluttering up the space.
Littering is obviously not frowned upon.

Large billboards of the Ayatollah everywhere.

I wouldn't be rushing to live there...if I were looking for somewhere.

SkyNews:

"Families sue US prisons."

Missing organs after death/autopsies.

University of Alabama school of medicine mentioned.
