"UK and Canada Declare Simultaneous Travel Threat Alerts Against Each Other".
Update This certainly doesn't inspire confidence: "British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak Reshuffles Cabinet, Sacks Conservative Suella Braverman, and Brings Back Centrist Former PM David Cameron as Foreign Secretary".
The sun never sets on British pusillanimity.
Update Friend and commenter Veeshir has dubbed us all Pacostanis - which I think is perfect. Remember to use that on any forms or applications that ask for your ethnic identity, going forward.
Makes sense. Jihadis have taken over the cities of the UK. Also, jihadis have taken over the cities of Canada. Bad news, everyone - don't be thinking of taking a break in the US, because jihadis...
ReplyDeleteOh, you guessed it! Good for you!
Wow, that wasn't a Babylon Bee headline!
ReplyDeleteI think this is also code for Sikhs and Hindus. Wealthy Canadian Sikhs are Trudeau's biggest supporters and he repays the favour. Bastards blew up an Air India jet in 1985 just 6 weeks after my wife and I flew on it to India:

The Pakistan border cut the old Sikh land of Punjab in half, and Pakistan is happy to sponsor Sikh separatism, so there is a Muslim had behind it too. But Sikh religious fanaticism is cantankerous, as Indira Gandhi found out after trusting her two Sikh bodyguards. Trudeau obviously doesn't care as long as they bankroll him and bring in their votes.
Hindu temples are lately being vandalised by Sikhs even in Australia.
Delhi is trying to modernise India and has brought in systems to eliminate all sorts of middle-men parasites who've exploited the masses for centuries. This was a direct threat to Sikh mafia in the Punjab, who roused their feudal serfs in the recent so-called 'farmers protests'. Most Sikhs are good people opposed to all this, but it's like other types of mafia, hard to get rid of, deeply ingrained.
PS We know it was the same plane because we noted the name 'Kanishka' which became an inside joke between me and my wife, for a few months until we heard it was destroyed.
ReplyDeleteI had kept a toothpick in my wallet I got on the plane, just to use later. Later I kept it as a memento -'all that's left'. Threw it away in the 1990s. Wish I hadn't.
That tragedy is also behind the opening of Rushdie's Satanic Verses - the heroes are saved in mid air by a magic carpet -bitter irony. That book is mainly about events in the 1980s Indosphere, just as the previous books were about the 1970s. It's all ancient history now, but I remember old Indians in the 1980s telling us how wonderful the British era they grew up in was, and how they wish it would return, for one thing. So much for the present narrative of 'white oppression' - comic book simplism. Same for the current anti-Israel narrative.
UK/Canadian elitist theater. London, England was overrun with Arabs, even back in the 70s when we visited there. I fear the country is lost. And, unless the Canadians succeed in deep-sizing Justine Castreau and his cabal, they're lost as well. Hurts me to say it.
ReplyDeleteWeird, I put up 2 comments and the first one has disappeared, leaving the 2nd one hanging.
ReplyDeleteI did use the word Pakistan. A previous comment disappeared when I used that word too. So Mr Pakistan is censoring my comments? Typical.
We're all Pacostani here!
ReplyDeleteYeah, what if the Asian call-center mods think this is all about Pakostani Enterprises? Stranger things have happened.
ReplyDeleteBruce, you ought to try spelling it in the Obamaism "Poke-EE-ston."
ReplyDeleteSurely that will pass muster, right? Otherwise would be waaaaacist!!!11!!!1!elebenty!!1!!!
The thing was I explained how the Sikhs in Canada are unhinged, see this:
ReplyDeletehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_India_Flight_182
and how I was on that very plane a few weeks before it was destroyed.
Then I mentioned how the Sikh homeland was cut in half in the Partition:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_of_India
-which means half is over the border in you-know-where.
Also how Delhi is trying to modernise India and remove middle-men who prey on the masses. And this upsets the old regime in Sikh Punjab, which is a kind of feudal mafia, hence the so-called 'farmers protests' which Trudeau's Canada was the loudest foreign govt supporting. Meanwhile England has a lot of Hindus who are being targeted by Sikh fanatics. The same is happening on a smaller scale here in Oz. We went through all this before in the 1980s as above.
Bruce: Comments occasionally get spammed after the fact, I have no idea why (even some of my own have vanished). Some of them fall into the spam category, others seem to just disappear altogether.
ReplyDeleteAs Veeshir says, we're all Pacostani, here.
ReplyDeleteIt's the will of Allah, Paco.
ReplyDeleteInteresting take, bruce. I'm aware of Hindu nationalism which seems to be as virulent as Islamism, but it's interesting to see how the other groups in India (and their Diaspora) are reacting on the world stage (that is, the Western world that tolerates them to our peril).
ReplyDeleteJust as an aside, at my university we had a Sikh lecturer who was prone to stealing data from other professors and lecturers, and also was a university gift shop shoplifter before he was caught.
Oh yes Rebecca, Hindu nationalism was the theme of my honors thesis. My supervisor Bob Stern -Chicago PhD - wrote books about the tangled situation:
ReplyDeletehttps://www.goodreads.com/author/list/1357067.Robert_W_Stern
Not virulent I'd say, more about uniting India. Bob even argued it supports the growth of democracy, which put him at odds with his leftist friends. Because it's 'right wing'.
As an international problem, Hindus are like Jews: You have to be born a Hindu and they don't much like conversion into or out of Hinduism. So not a problem really, compared to Islam.
Individual Sikhs can be just like you describe (personal experience!), but they were once one of the backbones of the British Army. As soldiers or police they can be more trustworthy than other Indians. It's a paradox.
