A Short Sermon

 

 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Eph. 6:12)

My eldest's back in town on a weekend pass from the rigors of III Corps signals, which means we're grilling. What a great result, just hamburgers, nice and easy. Blue wishes he had a burger too, but he doesn't. He's done nothing to deserve such a thing, much less pay for it. Then again, he is a dog and a socialist.

And tomorrow we consider, in the Epistle, the armor of God, truth, righteousness, salvation, peace and faith. What are these but the qualities of Christ himself? In urging us to arm up, the Apostle is saying "put on Christ." Therein lies invincible protection against all the "fiery darts of the enemy."

Strong in this divine armament, take up the sword of the spirit, the fiery love of the Word of God and advance to contact, steadfast, sure, firm, resolute in the victory which is Christ's.

Sermon over. As you were,

Never Trust A Hippy

Some call hippies sly, duplicitous, and untrustworthy.

I rest my case.

You're Fired Traitor

"I have been fighting for 17 years. I am willing to throw it all away to say to my senior leaders, I demand accountability." - Marine Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller on the failures in Afghanistan that led to American servicemen dying. pic.twitter.com/JPH3nTctrG

— David Hookstead (@dhookstead) August 27, 2021

This Lt. Colonel has just been fired for daring to criticize our elite socialist NWO rulers' handling of the Afghanistan  withdrawal. What a racist traitor. Zero comments on the SNLR (Services No Longer Required) thought criminal:

Following the horrific deaths of 13 American soldiers and over 160 Afghans during yesterday's suicide attack on Kabul airport, Scheller shredded the "ineptitude" of the military's top leadership, even questioning whether the entirety of the botched withdrawal and evacuation effort means Americans have "died in vain" over the course of the whole two-decade long war. 

 

How dare he. What. A. Traitor. Expect a bill for the bullet.

August Von Mackensen

There's a lot of talk in the blogs about cavalry right now, so it seems right to highlight Field Marshal August Von Mackensen, 1849-1945, a man who spanned a century of remarkable change, from horse to its mechanized equivalent.

Mackensen was an Hussar, Leib-Husaren-Regiment Nr. 2, and fought against the French in the Franco-Prussian war, gaining a commission. Marrying well, Mackensen was promoted to the General Staff; Von Moltke, of all people, found him "a lovable character." Very different to other staff officers, such as general Milley.

He became adjutant to the Kaiser, the first commoner to hold such rank, and was duly ennobled in 1899. He served with distinction in WWI, commanding the 9th Army and later, Army Group Mackensen. He was awarded the Pour Le Merite for successful actions. Hans von Seeckt, his Chief of Staff, described him as a "hands-on commander with the instincts of a hunter." Unlike, say, General Milley.

Mackensen was promoted to Field Marshal in 1915, and awarded Oak Leaves to his Pour Le Merite. From there he served in the Balkans, against Serbia and Romania, commanding Heeresgruppe Mackensen. On "6 December 1916, on his 67th birthday, he rode in on a white horse and moved into the Romanian royal palace." Quite unlike US generals, such as Milley.

Mountebank Goon

A remarkable man, by any standard, unlike general Milley. But question, why did Mackensen have less medals than our brilliant war commander General Milley, did he win fewer battles?

Harvard's New Boss Chaplain

 

Harvard, popularly known as the Kremlin on the Charles is living up to its reputation as Satan's Vatican by hiring an atheist as its new boss chaplain. That's right, an atheist, Gregory Epstein will be in charge of spiritual care at the prestigious Ivy League school, named after a protestant minister. 

Greg's an apostate Jew and while he doesn't believe in a higher power, he's all about being "good."

“There is a rising group of people who no longer identify with any religious tradition but still experience a real need for conversation and support around what it means to be a good human and live an ethical life,” said Epstein to the New York Times, “We don’t look to a god for answers. We are each other’s answers.”

Typical Harvard Chapel Scene

We are each other's answers. "Eat of the fruit," says the Serpent to Eve, "and be as gods." Good call, but do you really want a god that looks like you? That aside, here's CS Lewis:

"There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them. They themselves are equally pleased by both errors and hail a materialist or a magician with the same delight." 

At what point does materialist and magician coalesce into the same thing? With that in mind, Harvard, it's all a larf until you wake up and the wicker's on fire.

What A Day

 

What a day it's been, and not in a good way. In fact, it was the deadliest day in Afghanistan for the US military since 2011(?), with at least 13 servicemen killed in suicide bombings at Kabul's international airport, to say nothing of civilian men, women and children. ISIS claimed responsibility for the attacks.

But that's not all. US officials in Kabul have apparently given the Taliban a list of Americans and Afghan allies, entrusting the Jihadis with their safe passage to the airport. "Basically, they've just put all those Afghans on a kill list," stated one defense official,  “It’s just appalling and shocking and makes you feel unclean.” 

Slack-Jawed

And where was the Commander-in-Chief as suicide bombers ripped into US troops and civilians? Nowhere to be seen, silent, hiding, not saying a word until his handlers trundled him out for a presser in which he blamed... Trump for the disaster.

In the meanwhile, US soldiers are destroying ammunition at their base in Kabul's airport and the Taliban has allegedly promised the Biden administration that any flights departing the airport after August 31 will be "blown out of the sky."

Unclean

Could this get any worse? Yes indeed it could. Don't say Dien Bien Phu, do pray for the repose of the souls who lost their lives today.

Dear God, if my jaw hits the ground one more time it's going to break.

Hail Our Rulers! Warning Graphic

 

Look, peasants, while two of our millionaire socialist ruling elite stroll down the beach in the toney Hamptons. Do you see them, Hillary and Bill, walking onna beach? Here, let's zoom in.

Do you sense the obese corruption? Has the sheer weight of all those suicides started to tell on the body of twice failed presidential candidate Hillary? Then again, maybe the blood of US citizens and allies betrayed in yet again another failed adventure in US forpol is starting to weigh on the woman who once wooed Yoko.

Imagine, but try not to throw up in your mouth.

Understanding Afghanistan

 

How do we come to terms with the massive scale of our defeat in Afghanistan, was it engineered, the result of a sinister globalist plan, some kind of Hegelian inevitability, sheer, utter incompetence? Perhaps a mixture of all of that and more. Then again, maybe the Taliban took a look at the Biden administration and thought let's go. Here, have a look yourself.

Well they weren't wrong, were they, coz everyone knows Terry runs from a tranny. And I'll leave it at that.

The Art Of War

 

Sun Tzu was a legendary Chinese general, strategist and philosopher, famous for writing the Art of War, a treatise on military strategy.

Though written in the 6th Century BC, the Art of War is widely studied today.

Especially at the highest levels of the US Department of Defense

And by the Commander in Chief himself.

Yes, the New World is no stranger to the wisdom of the Old.

Thanks, Dr. Swankenstein, for the tip and to Jack Posobiec for these compelling infographics.

I tell you, it's hot enough to melt porch furniture and cast it into bullets (what? Ed.), but whoever said life'd be easy? No one, but the band plays on and this mind blog's mission to document the Apocalypse continues. Steadfast.

Crooks Liars Thieves And A Saint

 

Is this too harsh? Via The Federalist:

The whole-of-government approach to failure in a 20-year, $2 trillion fraud and money-laundering scheme has resulted in an epiphany for Americans: their country is ruled by crooks, liars, and thieves.

The abysmal failure of America’s once-vaunted and widely respected military to even face the truth of its own incompetence heaps salt on the wounds of this epiphany. What country leaves thousands of its own citizens behind enemy lines to fend for themselves, with nothing more than an apathetic shrug of its shoulders? A country ruled by arrogant fools looking to line their own pocketbooks and who care little or nothing for the citizens that are their nation’s raison d’être, that’s who.

 

The damning scribe continues:

The military, the intelligence community, academia, journalism—the list of institutions plagued by moral bankruptcy and Baghdad Bob-level f-ckery goes on and on and on. Few Americans have confidence in America. Pile on a huge helping of COVID-19 hysteria, lockdowns, mounting shortages in housing and basic consumer goods, a quickly growing income gap between society’s poor and wealthy, and all-around lies and gaslighting—America is in trouble.

Like with the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan, our defeat there has exposed the nation’s failed leadership busy looting and wrecking what is left of our country. We can now see that we are led by the worst of humanity—a collection of garbage elites, tyrants, and political grifters. Like the Soviets before us, there are two only two classes in modern America: the ruling class, and everyone else.

 

Solution? Time to clean house. Good luck with that, perhaps at the ballot box. Sorry, just kidding. In marked contrast to the epic chicanery of our rulers, today's the Feast of St. Louis, 12th c King of France. He was famous for his holiness of life:

He was renowned for his charity. The peace and blessings of the realm come to us through the poor he would say. Beggars were fed from his table, he ate their leavings, washed their feet, ministered to the wants of the lepers, and daily fed over one hundred poor. 

 

Louis was also a warrior, a knight, as opposed to a grifting, lying, thieving, corrupt, cowardly mountebank.
