Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the latest episode of Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me is, of course, the irreplaceable PK.
Now, we are traveling at the point, and our equipment is a little bit different from usual, so we may sound a little bit different, but we hope that we will be intelligible.
I would like to wish all of our listeners a happy, happy Thanksgiving.
These may seem like grim times in many respects, but when you think about it in any realistic terms, every one of us alive today has so much to be grateful for.
And I'm sure that PK will join me in wishing all of our listeners this similar sentiment of Thanksgiving for all the advantages and the blessings that we enjoy.
Well, good afternoon.
I'm sorry, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever we're talking to you from this Thanksgiving 2019.
I echo and want to reiterate every word Mr. Taylor just stated.
I'd also like to ask, in this season when families are going to be getting together and traveling, did you get a chance to see Midway yet?
Ah, yes I did, yes I did.
What'd you think?
Well, oh, the special effects are really quite wonderful.
I'm a bit of a stickler for historical accuracies, so the departures from the historical record did bother me, and some things that were invented that were unnecessary for the plot.
It is a great movie of American heroism, and as others have noted, the Japanese are also treated with respect.
I thought it was really a first-rate movie.
I and a friend were among just a tiny handful of people in the whole theater, and I thought it was a pity that there aren't really filling the audiences for this movie.
But, as some British lady journalist, a critic, described it as full of toxic masculinity.
Well, it's toxic masculinity of the kind that wins wars and keeps the peace.
And if that's toxic masculinity, we need a whole lot more of it.
You know, there were other critics who said that they just couldn't get there.
It was just terrible that they used the word Jap all the time when referring to the Japanese.
That this should have been something that had been edited out.
What a, what a pathetic complaint that is.
And it reminds me, there was a VA hospital that had front pages from December 7, 1941,
in the lobby.
And the headline, of course, was Japs Bomb Pearl Harbor.
Well, it got to the point where they just couldn't keep them up, because the word
Jap was too offensive.
I just can't speak of those people in that kind of language, even if it is, of course,
entirely authentic for The Times.
But go ahead.
What's interesting, what you're saying, as we continue to progress into this more tolerant
society, Disney Plus was just released, and before, a lot of the older Disney films, made
when Walt Disney was still alive.
They actually say that when you, when you click on the movie to start it, that there are some culturally insensitive images or dialogue.
And I actually watched the Davy Crockett movie that was made, I guess, in the early sixties.
And they noted that there's some language that is used that people might find offensive today, because Davy Crockett and his comrades, Andrew Jackson during the Creek War, they keep calling the Indians Redmen over and over again, Redskin over and over again.
And I'm actually surprised there hasn't been a larger push to try and just get that removed entirely, to have it be deplatformed like Song of the South.
Well, yes, it's just as offensive as the name of the Washington football team, I suppose.
Did they even commit the egregious sin of referring to lady Indians as squaws?
I believe there may have been one or two usages of that term in the Davy Crockett, which is a great movie, by the way.
I think it became a TV series.
Say what you will about the Walt Disney Company, but there are some really good old movies available on Disney+.
Well, back to the question of movies and back to the war in the Pacific, I had said on our previous podcast that O'Hare Airport is named after Butch O'Hare, and that is correct.
But I made a mistake in saying that he made a name for himself during the Battle of Coral Sea.
That was an error.
It was several months earlier.
His Medal of Honor flight took place on February 20th, 1942.
That was really quite early in the war in the Pacific.
And he got a lot of attention because we'd had so many reverses, just one after another.
But he was on the carrier Lexington, and most of the planes were out chasing one flight of Japanese bombers when a second flight of bombers was detected on radar only 12 miles away.
And Butch O'Hare scrambled only with his wingman, just two aircraft.
They were two Grumman F4F Wildcats.
And it turns out that O'Hare's wingman's guns jammed and he couldn't fire at all.
And O'Hare had four .50 caliber guns with 450 rounds per gun, enough ammunition for only 34 seconds of firing.
And in this process of this flight of Japanese bombers, he shot down five of them and chased the other four away.
This was a really a remarkable example of gunnery with very few rounds.
And he became the first American ace in the Pacific.
Also the first American naval aviator to win the Medal of Honor.
And so that is a more accurate expression of the gentleman for whom O'Hare Airport is named.
And according to news reports at the time, Lieutenant O'Hara was described as, and I'm quoting, modest, inarticulate, humorous, terribly nice, and more than a little embarrassed by all the attention he got.
So that's Butch O'Hare for you.
Do you know what happened to him after he left the Army, or I guess he was a naval aviator?
What happened after he left?
Do you know anything about his history?
No, he did not have a particularly remarkable career.
He married and had a family and lived an entirely ordinary life.
I don't know more details other than that.
But I wanted to touch on what the Baltimore State Attorney's been up to lately.
You had an interesting story on Marilyn Mosby.
Marilyn Mosby.
She asked me one of our favorite topics here.
You go back and think about all the times we've talked about Baltimore, that 70% black city in Maryland and what it represents sort of as the future of the United States as the Great Replacement continues to happen across major cities.
There's a great piece On your website about Montgomery and what's happening in Montgomery as they just elected their first black mayor and what that means as they begin to regress to the mean there.
Well, in Baltimore, the state's attorney, Marilyn Mosby, a couple weeks ago cited a flawed American criminal justice system as, get this, the single largest civil rights issue facing black residents in Maryland today.
She stated that her office has decided to take strides toward reducing disparities, but still has more to do.
Quote, black people are six times more likely to be arrested and become a part of the criminal justice system than whites.
Mosby said as she was delivering this speech at the fall symposium of the University of Baltimore Law Review, which was headlined, get this Mr. Taylor and dear listeners, Quote, 400 years, slavery, and the criminal justice system.
Yes, it is an astonishing thing.
Whenever there is a disparity in black and white behavior, no one dares suspect that there might be a difference in behavior.
It's the system that is imposing these racial differences on blacks and whites who are, from a behavioral point of view, utterly indistinguishable.
No, it's absolutely remarkable.
And so this is the great civil rights challenge of the century, I suppose, reforming this ridiculous, absurd criminal justice system.
Well, they call it the new Jim Crow, and I think this quote that she gave sums up what her office believes and what more DAs across the country.
We've talked about the DA in Dallas that's decided to stop prosecuting crimes under $750 because they were disproportionately impacting people of color.
The same thing is going on in Boston, where the DA in Boston has decided the same thing.
Also, Kim Fox in Chicago.
The DA has decided, I think it's under $1,000 for shoplifting.
And in California, they've got a new prop.
I don't remember if it's prop what it is, but which one it was passed.
I think it was passed in 2016, but they're also turning a blind eye to shoplifting because people of color are disproportionately impacted and arrested.
Yes, these are called crimes of poverty, and we must decriminalize poverty by making it perfectly okay to shoplift anything less than whatever the cutoff happens to be, $800, $1,000.
No, we live in astonishing times.
Here's the key quote from Mosby.
I'd like to read this real quick.
You have an over-militarization of police departments all across the country, racially unjust application of laws against poor black and brown people, And collateral consequences of these convictions that have kept black and brown people in communities as second-class citizens.
Well, there you go.
It's all the system's fault.
And that reminds me of a story that appeared in The Root.
And it is about Pete Buttigieg.
I never can remember.
Buttigieg.
It's Buttigieg.
It's Buttigieg, is it?
Okay.
Well, golly, what happened to that story we had about him?
Now that we get out of anticipated order here, let's see.
Yes, here we go.
It's The Root.
The Root, of course, is a well-known black website, and there was an article by Michael Harriot And the title of the piece is Pete Buttigieg is a Lying M.F.
In this case, it's spelled out M.F.
That's really worth quoting from this piece.
It talks about the fact that a clip has emerged of Mayor Pete explaining why black children fail at school.
And it's quoted verbatim.
This is what the mayor said.
You're motivated because you believe that in the end of your education there is a reward, and there are lots of kids, especially in lower-income minority neighborhoods, who literally just haven't seen that.
There isn't someone who they know personally who testifies to the value of education.
You know, sounds like the typical mushy liberal sort of thing.
That actually sounds like something any Republican would say.
Yes, yes, anyone would say that.
Well, Michael Harriot, then he wants to say, he writes this, I want to be clear.
Pete Buttigieg is a lying motherfucker.
End quote.
Then he goes on to say the problem, of course, is lack of funding for non-whites.
And then he goes on to say, even though Buttigieg has never attended a school with more than 10% black students, he thinks he knows what's stopping black kids from achieving their educational dreams.
Then he goes on to say, This is why institutional inequality persists.
It is painted as a problem of black lethargy and not white apathy.
Pete Buttigieg is standing over a dying man holding the oxygen machine in one hand and telling everyone, eh, he doesn't need CPR.
He's just holding his breath.
Negligent homicide is still homicide.
Now I bring this up because it's such an obvious and rather stark description of the way so many blacks think.
Nothing is the fault of black people.
Nothing.
The fact that, as you say, in Baltimore, they're pointing out that blacks are six, seven times more likely to be arrested.
It's not their fault.
It's the system's fault.
And here he is saying, here's this guy on the Roots saying that it's like Pete Buttigieg is standing over Dying Man with the oxygen mask.
All he has to do is put it on.
That's all white people have to do, is put on the oxygen mask that we hold in our hands And black people will perform just as well as white people.
And it's never a problem of black lethargy.
It's always a problem of white racism.
And that's why, because Pete Buttigieg knows this absolutely, he is a lying motherfucker.
So, there you go.
And you're quoting there?
I'm afraid I'm quoting, yes.
You know, sometimes you just have to take the bull by the horns and quote our dusky brethren in the words they choose to use.
Now, but back, the other thing I wanted to talk about, you were describing the fact that, again, it is nobody's fault.
Nobody's fault.
And that we've decriminalized this, decriminalized that.
And now, had you not pointed out that in Chicago, they're moving in that direction as well.
Chicago is completely moving in that direction.
We know that because District Attorney Kim Foxx, who's up for re-election and who's still trying to distance herself from the Jussie Smollett controversy that we've discussed ad nauseum over the past six to eight months, actually, as that fiasco continues on.
Well, we know that in Chicago, you mentioned probably four or five podcasts ago about how Libraries are no longer going to have fees because people of color are disproportionately impacted by not returning books on time and having fees.
Well, we know that, as I stated, Kim Fox has decided, hey, if you shoplift under $1,000 there on the Miracle Mile, you're going to be okay.
We're not going to get you because we want to protect people of color from being inserted into the What do you want to call it?
The school-to-prison pipeline?
I guess the retail-to-prison pipeline?
So, now we've gone even a crazier direction.
So, during her run for mayor, during the mayoral race, current mayor Lori Lightfoot, she said she was going to stop water shutoffs for non-payment.
Well, get this.
Chicago water bill payments are down $20 million this year as Mayor Lightfoot's administration has Has done what she said they were going to do they've
stopped shutting off households water because of unpaid bills
the administration provided the data for uh about after The administration provided the data after far south side
alderman anthony biel hammered the mayor's budget team this week for what he said was a misguided
Policy at a time that the city desperately needs new sources of revenue
So there's fiscal mismanagement going on all across the board and then you throw on top
a decision by Mayor Lightfoot to, hey, let's just, let's just not turn off the water.
People can have water for free, basically.
You know, this is such an astonishing thing.
You start doing that kind of thing.
Well, it's like saying that you don't have to pay the fare to ride the subway.
When ordinary, honest people see folks taking advantage of a system like that, they get the water even if they don't pay.
I suppose it's probably the same for gas or electricity.
I mean, why would you make any difference?
Why would you distinguish between those utilities?
Ordinary, honest people see that and say, why the heck should I be the chump?
This kind of poisonous behavior begins to infect the entire society.
Every aspect of society, that's right.
Yes, that's right.
It's like broken window policing.
You've got to stop the small stuff.
Otherwise, people say, well, gosh, nobody cares around here.
No laws are being enforced.
I can get away with anything.
This, to me, is absolutely a suicidal policy.
We see more and more of this all the time.
And if I could, I'd like to make sure that we accentuate exactly why, the reason, the logic behind the stoppage of the shutoffs.
So Mr. Taleb, let me read from Mayor Lightfoot.
Quote, water is a basic, basic human right.
If you're turning off water, you are effectively evicting people.
And we know that disproportionately affects low-income people of color, who are going to be shut off from water services. We have
to be much more thoughtful and much more empathetic to people who are struggling." Well, they've
been empathetic to the tune of a 20 million dollar budget shortfall. Well, you know, this
brings us to another out-of-order story here, but why not?
Let's go all the way to Zimbabwe, because I suspect what's happening in Chicago, what's happening in Baltimore, this kind of thinking, it leads ultimately to Zimbabwe.
As you may know, back in 2008, the annual inflation rate in Zimbabwe reached 231 million percent.
I did not know that.
How much again?
231 million percent.
Oh my gosh.
The prices were going up by the minute, and people walking around with wheelbarrows full of currency.
And officials gave up reporting monthly statistics when it peaked at just under 80 billion percent in mid-November 2008.
80 billion percent!
That's some sort of world record.
And they gave up, and they said, well, you know, we just can't run a currency in this country.
And they started using the US dollar as the local currency.
Well, that worked for a while, but they decided that this was damaging to national pride, so just in June, the Zimbabwe dollar was reintroduced and foreign currencies have been banned.
Well, a number of strange things are going on here.
The payment systems in Zimbabwe They have these sort of mobile money methods where you use a smartphone or you can use a debit card, but these are so uncertain and so frequently fraudulent that prices are higher.
They can be twice as high if you use a debit card or something rather than cash.
Because people don't want to take the risks.
You need cash for obviously bus fares, even roadside vendors, grocery stores, banks.
A lot of people just take cash only because the non-cash systems are so fraudulent.
Well, Cash is so important, and the banks have not kept up because they don't want to have this raging inflation again, so they've been rationing withdrawals.
ATMs are empty.
People have been standing in line for hours on end, waiting to withdraw money, and they've been told there's no money left.
So there's this terrible cash crunch.
And what this has resulted in is a new profession.
A new profession known as cash baron.
These are people who never seem to have any trouble coming up with cash.
And what people will do is they will approach them and offer them bartered goods or promise to pay back at a higher rate.
These people have got the cash.
People do anything to get the cash.
And there is apparently an enormous amount of corruption here because these people have got connections with the banks, they can get a hold of cash, and they can dole it out for all kinds of premiums.
So there you go.
That's Zimbabwe for you.
And that may be the direction in which some of our cities are moving.
It's a little odd, though, that despite the fact that cash is in short supply, and usually it is when cash is plentiful, when there's too much money chasing goods that the prices go up, still they've got inflation.
Inflation was running 100% in June, and now it's between 300% and 400%, despite the fact that there's so little cash.
So there seems to be no way for Zimbabwe to control its cash and its currency.
Also, there's a bit of a problem because they didn't want too much money out there chasing too many goods.
The highest denomination Of a banknote in Zimbabwe today is a $5 note.
That is worth about 30 US cents.
So again, you've got to walk around with suitcases full of money, and that money is depreciating rapidly.
So my guess is that before long, Zimbabwe will be back on the US dollar or some other means to keep this crazy arbitral system one that people can live with.
Question for you.
Yes, sir.
Was there a problem of this nature when Rhodesia was in existence and the entire world was pressuring, turning off, and divesting from trade with Rhodesia?
No, that is a rhetorical question, isn't it?
No, it's a question seeking an answer.
Yes, when it was Rhodesia, it was a very, very well-run economy.
It had a positive balance of payments.
It was known for high-quality tobacco exports, as well as all kinds of agricultural exports.
Now it has to import most of its food.
But you are committing a thought crime even by noticing that there was a difference between the times when it was Rhodesia and now that has become Zimbabwe.
Oh, Mr. Taylor, a white person commits a thought crime when they dare not indulge in Pete Buttigieg thought by Going on soliloquies about white privilege and how he's going to do everything he can in office to wage war on it.
I mean, that's the only positive thought that a white person can have in 2019.
I'm afraid you're right.
But I wanted to touch on a recent Rasmussen poll on the subject of political violence.
I thought this was really quite interesting.
One in three voters, that's 34%, are very concerned that Trump opponents That's a total of 59%.
to violence to get their way. And another one in four, 25%, report that they are
somewhat concerned that anti-Trumpers will become violent.
That's a total of 59%. 59% of voters think that anti-Trumpers could be
violent. And ironically, Democrats are more likely to be very concerned
that Trump opponents will result to violence than Republicans. 40% to 36%.
And yes, Democrats, I guess they know their own.
They know their comrades.
And so they are more likely to be very concerned.
But it's striking to me that 59% of American voters fear that anti-Trumpers could be violent, either very concerned or somewhat concerned.
Now, voters are slightly less concerned that impeaching and removing Trump from office will promote violence.
That's 53% as opposed to 59%.
So I thought these findings were quite interesting, that Democrats are more worried about anti-Trump violence, or the likelihood of anti-Trump violence, than Republicans, and there is greater concern about anti-Trump violence than any concerns about violence that would result from impeachment and removal from office.
Well, look what happened last week at Berkeley, Mr. Taylor.
For our listeners that don't know, Ann Coulter was to give a Trumpet Returns speech, and I believe 2,000 plus protesters showed up.
They got pretty violent.
There's a video out there of a blonde-haired white girl trying to enter the speech, and she's accosted.
She's stopped by this sea of color that won't let her into the speech.
Yes, that's right.
I understand that they had quite a large number, quite a large police presence that if you were very, very persistent, you could probably get into the talk.
But boy, they did not want Ann Coulter to be heard.
This is an absolutely typical thing that's going on these days.
And that reminds me of an interesting article that appeared in the Wall Street Journal by Heather MacDonald.
And she is talking about the fact that school systems all around the country are training teachers and administrators that any kind of colorblind standards and work ethics is just pure white privilege.
She said, this is quite interesting, that she had given a talk at Holy Cross And what happened there is that a bunch of students, she was saying that students today have a great privilege in that they have access to an enormous amount of education, but no, they stood up and they said,
Do not deny our oppression!
And walked out.
And they had wanted to have people who were going to do that take every single seat in the auditorium.
They took about half the seats apparently, so those who couldn't get in because it was sold out couldn't get in, and half the people then were screaming and walked out.
But then, and a few days before this, one of these protests, the administrators, this is another speech, this one at Bucknell University in Lewisburg, before she was going to talk, there was a therapeutic scholars panel that was gathered to talk about all of the trauma that was likely to take place when Heather MacDonald was going to speak.
At this therapeutic panel, they discussed rape culture, trauma, racism, and then student faculty were invited to join in painting self-care rocks.
You know what a self-care rock is?
Is it a big rock that you that you paint for some sort of soothing therapeutic I have no idea.
Go ahead, tell me.
No, that's pretty close.
That's pretty close.
A self-care rock is a rock on which you paint some kind of mushy, feel-good sentiment.
And this was thought necessary to prepare people to withstand the rigors of Heather MacDonald speaking about Well, this is the situation in universities all around the country.
You know, there was a time when I used to be invited to speak at universities.
I guess those days are over.
among the most privileged people who have ever lived, this is something they can't stand.
Well, this is the situation in universities all around the country.
You know, there was a time when I used to be invited to speak at universities.
I guess those days are over.
I suspect the place would just go up in a nuclear blast if someone like me were invited to speak.
Heather MacDonald, I think, of course, is an absolute national treasure.
The things that she says about alleged police racism, she's very, very fact-oriented.
Everything she writes is worth reading.
But, of course, and I'm delighted to see that she's at least being invited to campuses, but it turns out that it's become very, very difficult for her to get her message across because people just don't want to hear it.
Well, we've talked about before, Mr. Taylor.
I can't think of any example of right-wing students.
Right-of-center students protesting a leftist speaker on campus.
I really can't.
Maybe having a couple signs, but there's no violence.
There's no one being stopped from entering the speech.
There's no disruption.
The speakers are allowed to pontificate and lambast white people and white privilege without any opposition.
That's right.
Think about what's happening to Michelle Malkin being de-personed and de-platformed for her deviation from the conservative Inc.
script.
The approved script.
Think about Charles Murray.
Charles Murray has a huge book coming out in, I think, 60 days, which is going to be his biggest work yet.
I think it has race in the title.
I think it's kind of a sequel to Bell Curve and Coming Apart.
And he's been alluding on Twitter, where I know you aren't on anymore, but he's been saying, gosh, if all these people are being The platform for what they're saying.
Wait till they get a load of my book.
And it's actually fascinating because you think about what happened to him at that liberal arts school.
And the professor who invited him, where she, I think it was a female, they sprinted off, correct?
They were chased and she hurt her neck or something?
Well, what happened, they were going off to the car to leave the premises after they had been just shouting and banging and it was impossible for him to speak.
And someone came up from behind her and yanked her hair so hard that it wrenched her neck and she had to go to the hospital.
That's right.
But, no, you're absolutely right.
I cannot think of a lefty who has ever gotten that kind of violent or even a noisy reception to the point where they couldn't even speak.
This never, ever happens.
It's astonishing to me that the people on the left seem to have no conception of this utterly one-sided set of standards that they wish to apply.
But that is the world in which we live today.
Another little notice that came up was something on the subject of faked peer review.
Now, as you know, scholarly journals, you have to get peer review done, and that is to say, Your paper is sent out anonymously, or it's sent out, the people who are doing the review know who you are, but they are anonymous, and they go over the thing, and they look at the study, and they look at the data, and they say, well, this was done wrong, this was done right.
In any case, peer review is a very complex and well-established system to make sure that papers are, the scientific method is followed properly, that the data are reported accurately.
Well, Actually, peer review can be faked.
I've never heard of that.
Yes.
People can... I would imagine it's a complicated process to get reports.
You dummy up these reports from people that really didn't do the review.
In any case, between 2012 and 2016, hundreds of scientific papers had to be retracted
because it was discovered that the peer review was faked.
Now, I assume that there are many, many papers out there for which this kind of fraud has not been detected, but something that was prepared by the World Education Services.
They listed by country the country of authorship of the papers that had to be taken away and repudiated and taken down because of faked peer review.
China was number one.
276 papers.
276 papers.
Next, Taiwan, 73.
Iran, 65.
South Korea, 33.
Pakistan, 19.
India, 13.
And then, Australia, 7.
And the numbers just get quite small.
Only one from the United States, only one from Germany, Italy, Poland, Serbia.
But some of these numbers surprised me.
China did not surprise me all that much.
They're just desperate to get published.
The corner cutting.
But Taiwan coming in number two?
I don't know.
I guess there's a similar culture in many respects.
And South Korea.
South Korea was number four on the list.
I just wouldn't have expected the South Koreans to be doing this kind of thing.
But I thought this was just an interesting little example of the standards that do not prevail in certain countries.
Speaking of standards, and you'll have to stop me if I start getting boring on this subject here, but over the weekend I was invited to engage in a debate with an American Muslim on the question of whether Islamic immigration is good for the United States.
And you of course were in the affirmative, right?
Yes, yes.
Oh, this is great stuff.
Diversity is our greatest strength.
Islam means submission and we all want to submit.
So yes, the more the merrier.
Well, it turns out that this guy, he's basically a Muslim missionary.
He wants the whole world to be Islamic because he thinks it's a wonderful religion.
And so I just got together a few little facts.
I call them fun facts about Islam.
And I describe them as reasons why the West should not have Muslim immigration.
Just starting with sex grooming, for example, in the UK.
In Rotherham, there are known to have been 1,500 victims. 1,500!
These are English girls, of course, who were taken advantage of with drugs, alcohol, and turned into sex slaves, passed around like meat, brutally beaten, sometimes raped.
In Rotherham, 1,500.
In Telford, an estimated 1,000 girls, some as young as 11 years old.
In Newcastle, 700!
And then we had the same thing in Rochedale and Huddersfield and more than a dozen cities in England.
Again, these are only the sex grooming cases that have come to light.
Of course, you must criticize a system in which young girls, I guess many of them are in foster care or their parents are not paying much attention to them.
These are lower working class white girls.
It is abominable and astonishing to me that they can be so easily victimized that way, but the system, as you know, has been very, very reluctant to come to their aid.
In any case, that is an excellent reason all by itself, certainly not to let Muslims immigrate to Great Britain.
And then, of course, there is the rape in Sweden problem.
Turns out that foreign-born men are four to five times more likely to be convicted of rape.
Almost always they're from the Middle East, North Africa, East Africa.
These are Muslims.
And then, of course, I did have to concede that we have been culturally enriched by Islam.
And that is we have learned a new Arabic word.
It's Tahrush.
Do you know what that means?
I don't, but it enriched me.
Let me enrich you.
Taharush is the word that describes what happened in the square at Cologne Cathedral, in front of Cologne Cathedral on New Year's Eve.
That was back in 2015, I believe.
That's right, New Year's Eve 2015, 2016.
It's when you get a gang of men that surround women and grope them, touch them, rob them.
This is such a common phenomenon in the Arab world that there is a distinct word for it, taharush.
So we have been enriched culturally, because now at least some of us have learned this exciting new Arab word.
And as I say, you'll have to stop me if I go on too long about this, but I think it's just interesting.
No, please, we need to understand what's happening across the Western world as this avalanche of migration brings forth this Middle East renaissance.
Yes, yes, yes, the Middle Eastern Renaissance.
Well, a terrorism in the United States, for example.
In 2011, there was a report by the Heritage Foundation, and since 2001, the September 11 attacks, there had been 40 terrorist plots foiled by the FBI.
That was, again, that's 2011.
That's, again, that's 2011.
During that period, 40 terrorist plots had been foiled.
have been foiled.
And then when we talk about successful attacks, since 2009 there have been 11 deadly Muslim attacks in the United States.
That includes the Boston Marathon, the Fort Hood shooting, San Bernardino, the Pulse nightclub massacre in Orlando.
For a total of 94 dead people.
All dead at the hands of Muslims who need not have been admitted to the United States.
And aside from the ones who simply want to kill us, there are the problems, of course, of those that demand halal food in cafeterias.
Now there are some towns in Michigan that have so many Muslims that they can arrange to have this done.
No pork and halal food in school cafeterias.
And there are universities now in the United States where they have women-only bathing hours in the swimming pool because they've got enough pressure from Muslims.
They don't wish to have the male gaze upon their bodies as they're swimming.
But the one that I remember, I think is really quite significant.
Do you remember a few years ago, at the Minneapolis airport, The taxi driving, the taxis were pretty much monopolized by Muslims.
And many of them refused to accept a passenger if that passenger had a little dog with him or if a bottle of alcohol.
They just wouldn't pick them up because they were imposing their Islamic views on Americans.
And then, of course, there's always the problem Of Muslims insisting that the assembly line be shut down three or four times a day so they can all pray and do their Islamic prayers.
There are all sorts of reasons why having Muslims in the United States, even aside from the ones who are trying to kill us, is a problem and a bother.
And entirely aside, of course, from the fact that diversity is a weakness and not a strength.
But, you know, if you go on to the whole question of terrorism in Europe, In just the last four years, between 2015 and 2018, there have been 87 successful acts of terrorism that actually killed people.
A total of 360 dead.
That's just between 2015 and 2018, and I don't know the number, and wounded.
We're coming up on the three-year anniversary of the Bataclan massacre, correct?
Yes we are, yes we are.
the Bataklan massacre, that was about, that was over 100 people all told.
But 87 successful acts, 360 dead, and that period 2015-2018 does not include the 193 dead
killed in the 2004 Madrid train bombing.
I remember seeing the horrific photographs of just the subway system blown to bits.
193 people dead, hundreds wounded.
Nor does it include the 52 dead in July 7, 2005 London attacks.
And as I pointed out to the fellow with whom I debated, have you ever heard of an Islamic terrorist attack in Eastern Europe?
No, they don't have that problem in Poland, or the Czech Republic, or Slovakia, or the Baltic Republic, because they don't let Muslims in.
But this guy still tried to insist that Islam is a wonderful thing, not only in Islamic countries, but all around the world.
Now, I will skip over some of this other stuff.
I think it's, well, let's see.
Remember the 2005 Mohammed cartoons published in the Danish newspaper?
Of course, according to Islam, it's very much against the rule to depict the Prophet.
This is considered sacrilegious.
And there were demonstrations all around the Muslim world against the Danes for having done this.
And these demonstrations resulted in a total of 200 deaths.
This is how strongly Muslims feel about their religion.
And then just another fun fact here.
Apparently, there is a quotation from the prophet.
He says, if a Muslim discards his religion, Kill him.
In other words, apostates must be killed.
And according to Pew Research in 2010, I would never have guessed this, the percentage of
Egyptian Muslims who support the death penalty of apostasy is 84%.
84%.
86% 84%.
86% of Jordanian Muslims support the death penalty if you leave Islam.
In the case of Pakistan, it's 51%.
In the case of Nigeria, I'm sorry, Pakistan, it's 76%.
76%, Nigeria 51%.
Yeah, we're talking about folks with a radically, radically different view of how a country should be organized.
And then support for Sharia law.
You know, it's astonishing to me, even in Russia, 42% of Muslims support the establishment of Sharia law.
In places like Morocco, 83%.
In Iraq, 91%.
Oh, in Djibouti or the Democratic Republic of Congo, 80%.
These are fanatical people.
And the idea that we benefit by admitting them in the United States, to me, is utterly laughable.
And in my own modest way, I think I completely crushed this guy who was trying to argue that Islamic immigration to the United States and Europe was a wonderful thing.
And then just finally, on the question of what Islam itself is really like, you know when you think about it, the way ISIS behaved is exactly the way Muhammad did.
When Christians ask themselves, what would Jesus do?
They act in a particular way.
When Muslims ask themselves, well, what would the Prophet do?
Well, they act in a completely different way.
They act exactly the way ISIS did.
You behead your enemies.
You capture the enemy women and turn them into sex slaves.
You slaughter people who refuse to accept Islam.
And Boko Haram behaves in exactly the same way.
Again, where we see Islam in its most original, fundamentalist, and purest form is the way they behaved in the Islamic State.
You know, Mr. Taylor, with the Christmas season approaching all across the world, in Western Europe, I know that they have beautiful Christmas markets, and Germany, and France, and these nations that have been, as you noted, enriched by this migration of Muslims to colonize for the advancement of Islam all across Europe.
Well, they've had to erect barricades so that people can't drive cars and an act of terrorism into these Christmas markets all across Western Europe.
That same phenomenon isn't present, as you noted correctly, in Eastern Europe.
Hungary, Czech Republic, Czechoslovakia, you know, in Poland, Christmas markets, people can walk freely, there are no barricades.
And there are images in Germany of these Christmas markets where they actually put packages over them that look like a Christmas present as a decoration.
So you don't realize that there's a barricade there to stop people from driving their cars in an act of Islamic terrorism.
Yes, yes.
It's very clear that any public manifestation of Christianity becomes a target.
Something like Christmas.
Christmas is just a hated time for these people.
And another point that can be made is here's this fellow in America.
He is a Muslim missionary trying to convert as many people to Islam as possible.
I don't think he's being very successful, but you can't be a Christian missionary in Saudi Arabia and in any number of other Muslim countries.
They just won't stand for it.
So this double standard is one that is constantly used against us.
But now, speaking of Eastern Europe, did you not have a good news story for us?
Let's have a good news story for this Thanksgiving, and we can think about what could happen if we actually had a government that put the actual citizens first instead of trying to elect a new people via invade the world, invite the world strategies.
We've talked about what Hungary's doing to try and promote marriage and childbirth with subsidized loans.
We'll get this.
A new Hungarian government scheme that is going to try and promote marriage and childbirth with loans has already helped produce a boom in weddings.
Now, it's a little too early to see if this is going to follow through with more babies, but Viktor Orban's plan, you know, the Prime Minister of Hungary's plan, has made it a priority to persuade more Hungarians to marry and have children, to reverse the population decline.
So instead of having Africans and Muslims move in to prop up the population decline.
The Hungarian government says, well, let's come up with a way, tax benefits and incentives, to have our people have more children.
And here's what's happening.
The big new scheme this year offers, the plan offers couples that marry before the bride's 41st birthday subsidized loans of up to $33,000 US dollars.
A third of the loan will be forgiven if they go on to have two children.
And the debt, that loan, is wiped out entirely, entirely, if they have three children.
So in September of 2019 alone, 29% more couples married than at the same time in the previous year, in September of 2018.
Hungry saw the most September weddings since 1979, just a couple months ago.
So, obviously, the first step forward, the family formation, that is marriage, is taking place.
People are beginning to really accept this plan.
And now it's now of course obviously takes nine months for you know for for the
for the the birthing process
So we'll find out.
Don't be impatient.
Don't insist on conception on the wedding night.
I agree.
This is great news.
It is, of course, a tragedy.
And it is a very thought-provoking fact that these societies are not naturally reproducing themselves in the way that human societies have done for Thousands and thousands and thousands of years.
This is a very disconcerting phenomenon, but I agree with you 100%.
It must be so heartening to live in a country in which your government has your people's interests at heart.
They, the Hungarians, want Hungary and Hungarians to go on forever, to be a permanent part of the world population and the world family.
And this is really, really a great thing.
And it just goes to show you the kind of measure that a government can take when it really has the interests of the people at heart.
This is not a government, I'm sure, that has decided to stop Cutting off water if you don't pay your bill.
This is not a government that has decided, because gypsies can't, they get arrested for skipping the bus fare more often than anybody else, we're just going to let everybody ride for free.
No, they don't take that point of view.
They do what is good for the people, not what is just tearing society to bits.
So yes, that's a great good news story, and we will hope, as I say, I'm not as impatient as you, I'm going to give more than nine months, but we'll hope for a rise, a baby boom, and one that will continue into the future for the Hungarian people.
Another interesting story, and this was a poll that took place in the journal Intelligence.
And the way it was done is that questionnaires were sent out to experts in intelligence.
These are people who had published at least one article since 2010 in journals that cover intelligence.
And what they found, they asked a number of questions, but what I thought was the most interesting question was, What percentage of the racial differences in IQ between blacks and whites is contributed by environment and what percentage is contributed by genes?
Okay.
Now, this was a remarkable poll to begin with because it took for granted that blacks and whites differ in intelligence.
This is something you can't even say publicly in the United States.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
But see, this was what is an essential aspect of that question.
Is this a result of environment or is this a result of genes or a combination of the two?
And what we found out was that among these experts, 84% said that genes play a role of some kind.
Now what that means is 16% said that's 100 minus 84, 16% said that it was 100% environment.
That seems like a surprising position to take for a real expert on intelligence.
But there were 16% of these so-called experts who thought that it's all environmental.
I mean, they recognize, yes, there is a black-white difference in intelligence.
They say it's all due to the environment.
But the highest percentage of people thought it was about 50-50.
That was about 17%.
And then there was a quite a substantial number, about 15% who thought it was 80, that the source was 80% genetic.
There were good numbers at 60, 70.
Quite an interesting array of experts who understand the importance of genes in causing this difference in black and white intelligence.
This is something that you could, they had an excellent article on this at the UN's review, but if you also look up a poll about intelligence in the journal Intelligence, you can get the finer grain detail on this.
On the whole, I thought this was very encouraging, especially given The kind of ferocious taboo there is in academia today.
And these are people who are prepared to say to a pollster, a pollster who is an expert on intelligence, of course, saying that, well, yes, genes account for 60, 70, 80% of the racial differences in intelligence between blacks and whites.
So, things are moving along in a positive direction in other areas as well.
Definitely.
Now, I guess, boy, we are approaching the end of our time.
We do have one of these heartbreak stories.
It has to do with a fellow by the name of Clarence Venable.
He was 40 years old.
He was working in a Washington, D.C.
outfit called the Alliance for Concerned Men.
And he was in training for something called the Cure the Streets program.
Well, what does the Cure the Streets program do?
What it does?
It takes what are called credible men in the community and trains them to de-escalate violent situations and prevent crime before it occurs.
And by the way, Mr. Taylor, they have similar programs, these violence mediators in cities all across the country.
You can read about them in Cincinnati, in Indianapolis, in Baltimore, in New York, Chicago, Detroit.
They're everywhere.
Of course, when you start to notice the pattern, Why they're everywhere and which communities they primarily try and have violence mediation in.
There is a pattern there.
And in the case of the Alliance for Colored Men, the program started off with eight part-time workers.
It's now got eight full-time workers and six part-time workers because the homicide rate has been increasing in 2018 and is on course to increase yet again in 2019.
I do wonder how these operate.
You know, how do these credible people, how do they de-escalate violent situations and prevent crime before it occurs?
That's a little bit of a mystery to me.
I mean, in practical terms, what are you supposed to do?
You're supposed to sort of swagger around town saying, yeah, put that gun away, bro!
I just don't know how it would work.
You leap out of the shadows.
Yeah, exactly.
Hey guys, what are you doing?
I sense my violence mediation sense has gone off.
Guys, stop.
Put down the gun, please.
Put down the knife.
But, you know, apparently, I mean, if it works, so much the better.
But I'm a little bit skeptical on the practicalities of it.
But as it turns out, Clarence Venable As he was walking out the door of his job at the Alliance for Concerned Men, he was shot dead by a person as yet unapprehended.
He was shot many times, several times in the head, and then the fellow stood over him and just pumped more bullets into his body on the ground.
It was really pretty brutal and thorough killing.
And according to the report that I saw, Like many of the men taking part in the program, Clarence Venable had a troubled past.
It must have had a lot of trouble for him to end in this way.
A woman described as his former partner, now I don't think this was a business partner, I think this is the mother of several of his children, said this, he grew up a troubled youth.
And also faced some troubles in his adult life.
It was like trouble always found him.
He never went looking for it.
No, not the origin of it.
You know, this is a very sad thing and I'm very sorry for Clarence Venable.
Apparently, you know, he's trying to turn his life around as these victims always are.
But this attitude, trouble always found him.
He never went looking for it.
This black attitude of almost passivity.
It is never anybody's fault.
It's as if black people are just pure marionettes.
They are utterly directed by the environment.
They are utterly directed and manipulated by white people.
There's nothing we can do.
Trouble found.
Poor Clarence Venable.
You know, real quick, you're familiar with Louisville.
They have a similar program called the It's called The Interrupters.
It's funded by taxpayer dollars.
1.7 million dollars.
It's a cure violence program.
And earlier this year, back in March, a black man was arrested for allegedly strangling and raping a woman.
And guess what?
He was one of the city's so-called interrupters.
He made $33,000 a year from this taxpayer funded program.
And he was supposedly trying to cure violence in the city.
And look, lo and behold, this interrupter engaged in said violence himself.
Well, as they say about this program in Washington, D.C., they take credible men.
Well, I think credible men probably by definition have to have a troubled past, and some of them are going to continue to be troubled.
So it will be an unhappy Thanksgiving for the people who knew and loved Clarence Venable.
But I believe our time is coming to a close, PK, so I will wish you As well as all of our listeners, a wonderful Thanksgiving and do please be conscious of so much for which we can and should be grateful.
