Torchlight

A Happy New Year To All Those Standing Watch Over The Free World Tonight

  As I laid the table for the family this evening, I was thinking of how to address the Torchlight reader with regards to the New Year. Inexorably my thoughts and wishes once again find their way to the brave souls of the uniformed services. As with other holidays, my family tradition in wartime has always been to set an extra place setting for the soldier in the field. It is a tradition that I hope my children bestow upon their own children someday and that we all never forget the ultimate price that our freedom and the greatness of our societies in the western world demand in exchange for their existence and advancement for generations to come. G-d knows the noblest endeavor is that of the soldier and his selfless dedication to his people.

 To my friends, my brethren, my brothers and sisters in arms; whether it be the sherry, the leg of lamb, the single malt, or the pints which follow, know that there is not a sip, nor a morsel that doesn’t remind us all that none would be possible without your supreme sacrifice for G-d, country, and those of us whom you protect each and every night. Wherever you may be tonight, whatever that hour strikes home, know that you are both safe in the warm embraces of G-d as well as in the hearts of the millions you stand watch over. May G-d protect you and may you find the dawn of the New Year brings with it all that life can offer to the noblest and most righteous of men.

 I would like to leave you with a quote which must bring all men to decision in these dark and turbulent times.

"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God!-I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

- Patrick Henry Mar 23, 1775

Flanders: Guinean Man Breaches Aeroport Security And Approaches Planes On The Tarmac, Twice.

  This story comes to us from Flanders News;

 On Monday a member of the public twice managed to breach airport security at Brussels Airport. On two occasions the man, a Guinean national, succeeded in straying onto the tramac at the country's biggest airport.

 The intruder appeared extremely confused, but had no bad intentions.

 The Guinean breached the airport's fence on Sunday night.

 He was stopped by security staff on the tarmac.

 He was questioned and later released because he did not occur on any of the security lists.

 On Monday morning he managed to get into the airport grounds for a second time. This time ha succeeded in approaching an aircraft.

 Again security staff stopped him. The Guinean is now under observation in a specialised unit.
 
 Jan Van der Cruysse of Brussel Airport says there is no reason for panic. The man had no bad intentions and is not linked to terrorism.

He concluded: "We can make it difficult for people to get onto airport grounds but not impossible."

 This is so outrageous, so utterly shocking on so many levels, it beggars belief. My friends, does it need to pointed out just how endemic this whole PC nightmare has become? "A member of the public"? In what way does a Guinean national, who "wanders" onto an aeroport tarmac, twice, constitute a member of the public? The story itself implies the man is deranged and out of his tree. His purpose to Belgian society is, pardon me for saying so, rather questionable. It does come to mind whether the good citizens of Flanders are aware of how their tax revenues are being spent.

 My friends, this is why people are getting killed. This is the sheer lunacy that we live in today. When polite, European civilisation is turned on its ear by the science projects of the left, obsessed with having sheep like voters, and flooding our nations with "members of the public" who can wander in and out of sensitive security areas while living off of our tax revenues, what is left for us to do? What possible faith can we ever have again in the hopelessly corrupt and prostitute governments currently hanging over us like ravenous vultures? At what point do we finally stand up in unison and smash these Marxist vote whores into dust? The answers to these questions must no longer be ignored.
 
 I find it quite ironic that the so-called aeroport security officials were able to make a split second decision about this man's intentions while not so far away another was allowed into a plane with a bomb. Where was the judgment there I wonder? My friends, there is a security threat and there is only one way to confront it. We know the profile of these monsters and we had better come around to streamlining the way we deal with these people and stop punishing average Europeans by trying to be tolerant and not racially motivated in our profiling. My friends the terrorist threat is real, it is ever present and it has but one proprietor; islam.

 Our leaders have flooded our nations with this parasitical cancer and have since abandoned us, the people, to our own devices. It is time that we treat this problem with that in mind. We are left to our own devices and therefore it is up to us to reclaim our countries and our security in a way which benefits us and the future of our countries. Our governments see us as irrelevant, obstructive and they are aggressive towards our hopes and desires as they so inconveniently contrast to their vision of the "new Europe". In our righteous might, it is we who declare these vote cultivators, corrupt Marxists, and multiculturalists as irrelevant, it is we who shall declare their intentions as a threat to national security and it is we who shall return our countries to their rightful course without taking into consideration the ideas and will of the government. Let them have a dose of what it feels like to be powerless, rudderless, and eventually crushed underfoot by a determined ideology.

 My American friends; it would wise to cease the scape-goating of your intelligence services. There is one reason and one reason only why that Nigerian got onto the plane with a bomb. The blame lies squarely with Europe. Until we can carry out real action and campaign against the lunacy at the reigns with tangible results, America will remain under a critical threat from all air traffic originating in Europe. It is going to be a costly, bloody, and long war, but we will fight and G-d willing we will be triumphant in the end.

Afghanistan: Eight CIA Officers Killed By Suicide Bomber

This story comes to us from The Daily Mail;

 Eight CIA agents were killed in a separate attack, during a suicide bombing at a military base in south-eastern Afghanistan.

 The explosion was at a military base in Khost province, near the border with Pakistan. The base is a centre for personnel working on reconstruction projects.

 'We can confirm that there was an explosion in Khost province and eight Americans have been killed,' a U.S. official in Kabul said.

 Several others, none of them U.S. or Nato troops, were wounded in the explosion at Forward Operating Base Chapman, defence officials said.

 The CIA has been expanding its presence in Afghanistan in a bid to stem Taliban gains.

 This couldn't have possibly come at a worse time for the heroic men and women of the Central Intelligence Agency. As the Obama administration continues to duck the glaring reality that they are terrified of even naming the greatest threat to western civilisation after Marxism, they have once again rolled out the deplorable arsenal of blaming the men and women who actually risk life and limb in protecting the United States. For years we have seen the civilian frontline heroes in the war on terror trashed by government officials for doing the sacred duty they have sworn for the benefit of our nation. The ease in which we are able to blame them for error is the ultimate insult to the very real fact that we are never aware of the successes they achieve day in and day out. We as a people owe these men and women our very lives, and like our military, we owe them the respect they deserve. Each and every American ought to feel proud that there are those who put it all on the line for the freedoms and lifestyles we all take for granted.

 I believe that I can speak for a majority of America when I say that we stand behind these brave souls and offer our thoughts and prayers to the families who have lost so much in the defense of this nation. It is our duty to never forget that the intelligence services are the tip of the sword and the most vital aspect of our national defense. They are our brethren, our brothers and sisters and they deserve our gratitude and support as much as those in the uniformed service.

Beyond RINO, Self Loathing Sedition, And Our Video Of The Day

There are depths which a man can sink for various reasons and then there is this man. The fact that the Republican party has not eradicated this vile piece of filth from the government is truly an enigma to me personally. Worse than this, his constituency, the people who continue to allow this cretin a mandate must truly be a specimen for study. At any rate, if things continue in this fashion for much longer, if the American people continue to be insulted, blamed for the evil in the world by their own congressional representatives, and marginalized by this administration, then the luxury and "fashion" of self loathing sedition will quickly become a thing of the past. Arm yourselves my friends, there has never been a more textbook example of when a government need be purged in its entirety. This is not radicalism, it is a right enshrined by the most sacred American document.

Iran: Ayatollah's Private Jet On 24 Hour Standby In The Event It Becomes Necessary To Flee

   This story comes to us from Radio Netherlands;

 Reports from Iran indicate that the Supreme National Security Council has ordered a complete check-up of the jet which is on standby to fly Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei and his family to Russia should the situation in Iran spiral out of control. The order, to the Pasdaran Revolutionary Guard Corps, was dated on Sunday, 27 December. A fax containing the order was sent to Dutch-based Shahrzad News.

 In Iran, tens of thousands of pro-government supporters took to the streets on Tuesday, calling for leaders of the opposition to be punished. They say the opposition is to blame for the protests during the Shiite festival of Ashura in which eight people are reported to have been killed by riot police.
 
 Opposition supporters launched the demonstrations following the death of Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri a critic of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The protests were crushed by the authorities and the opposition is now calling for the government to apologise for the excessive violence used by the police.
 
 President Ahmadinejad says the United States, Great Britain and Israel are behind the protests. The British ambassador in Tehran has been summoned by the Iranian authorities. The Revolutionary Guard says the foreign media and Iran's enemies are waging a psychological war aimed at bringing down the legitimate Iranian government.
 
 Some Iranian MPs are calling for demonstrators to be sentenced to death. Various opposition figures have been arrested including the sister of Nobel peace prize laureate Schirin Ebadi.

 It is simply amazing how a people so predisposed to authoriatarian theocratic rule can actually have a threshold of what they can tolerate and what they cannot. You would think that they would be well content with the type of government they so willingly brought upon themselves. Do you detect any sarcasm in my words my European and American friends? I hope so because at least these people know when they have had enough of a certain amount of bull{expletive deleted} coming down the pike from their government. The fact that the Grand Mullah or whatever he calls himself has his private jet on 24 hour standby right now out of sheer fear of the masses is rich beyond words.

Believe it or not, there are some pretty clear parallels between what is going on in Iran and what we as Europeans and Americans are facing each and every day. The only real difference is the perception of what is at stake and what we have to lose if we fail to get a grip on the destiny of our nations. One thing is for certain, the people on top of us have no regard for our futures, no concern for our cultural survival, and absolutely not a care in the world for what we as a people hold sacred. I never thought I would say this but maybe, just maybe, the Persians do have something to teach us about the meaning of freedom, and just what it may take in order to ensure that we don't let it become a distant memory.

Krauthammer On Obama And His Pledge To Track Down "Isolated Extremists" and Thong Bombs Wherever They May Be

Komrade Hussein now declaring the knicker bomber to be an “isolated extremist” should not come as a surprise to anybody at this stage in American Marxism and enlightenment. Never mind the fact that Napolitano has now replaced the word terrorism with “man-made disaster”, or the fact that Al Qaeda itself has claimed responsibility for the thong bomb, Komrade Hussein has now cleared the air and demanded that we all accept the fact that islam or any muslim influence whatsoever has nothing to do with the E.P.D. or explosive panties device. When such a man has spoken, we are compelled to remain in our cocoons, comfortable in the knowledge that if there were to be a man-made disaster, it most certainly has nothing to do with the religion of peace and more to do with our evil Caucasian excesses.

  Keep it my Kenyan friend, you are certainly going down as the first and last enemy of the United States ever to be elected to its highest office. I believe I can speak for the majority of the United States when I say that American exceptionalism is here to stay. I believe that I can safely say that most of the citizens of this glorious country are passionate, patriotic, disciplined, and courageous people who will not allow you to get away with your destructive plots and designs you have envisioned for the United States and her people.  It is evident that you and your party have declared war on the nation, the constitution, and the American people; this is a declaration which will be replied to in earnest and with swift steadfast resolution.

Italy: A Real Government Of The People And For The People In Lega Nord

This refreshing story comes to us from NRC Handelsblad;  

 At the root of the turmoil in Coccaglio, a town of 8,000, lies a recent remark by its new councillor responsible for public order, Claudio Abiendi, a member of the xenophobic Lega Nord party. He forecast a “white Christmas” recently, but he wasn’t referring to weather conditions. He was talking about ridding the town of foreigners. “Christmas is not a celebration of hospitality, but of the Christian tradition and our identity,” he said, justifying the actions taken by local government.

 That government hopes to “clean” its civil registry before Christmas. The police will soon be paying a visit to immigrants whose residency permit might have expired, 500 in all. If they fail to show a renewed residency permit, they will be scrapped from the civil registry. While this could open up the door to deportation, the move is mostly intended as a scare tactic.

 “Our village is peaceful and there is no crime. The problem here is 80 percent of social support payments are made out to foreigners,” said Agostino Pedrali, the councillor for social affairs and also a member of the Lega Nord. “People have given us their vote because they want us to clean this place up, and so we are,” Pedrali said.

 And this my friends is how it is done. This is government of the people and for the people. Notice that there were no bits of evidence to betray that any of these local officials were concerned about name-calling or some riodiculous ruling coming down the pike from the illegitimate court in Strasbourg. These officials, were no more or less intelligent tan the rest of us when it came to identifying the problem, they simply did not fear the consequences of naming the problem and fixing it in the most decisive and logical way. 

  There are several common factors at work in the destruction of European culture. The primary factor at work are the leftist cretins who have envisioned replacing the populations of Europe with those who would be more compliant to their grand scheme of things; in exchange for welfare payments of course. When it became apparent that the left could not just eradicate our roots and culture from us, they decided that the only way a federation of states could be created and ruled over by an authoritarian regime in Brussels, was to dilute the nationalism and heritage of the most powerful and nationalistic countries in Europe. They did this by importing ship after shipload of ridiculously void of morality, non-productive, and absolute opposites in culture foreigners into Europe. The reaction was of course going to be negative and therefore hate crime legislation and tolerance ordinances were put into play in order to stifle any sort of dissent. It basically has become a crime in Europe to protect and stand up for one's culture. it is however not a crime to destroy the ethnic fabric of real Europeans in order to break down the culture enough to gain a total mandate over the people. This is exactly what Lega Nord in Coccaglio understood and decided to stand up to. The people of Lombardy have already handed a resounding defeat to the Marxists and elected a sane government. Now that government is simply cleaning up the rubbish from the population. Exactly what they were charged with doing after receiving their mandate. This, my friends, is real government in action.

 Now the ladies and goons from the Bolshevik parties in Europe, and undoubtedly the snivelers in Strasbourg will shriek, kick, scream, and wail foul because they are losing a grip on the people they have been trying to subdue for so long. It is to be expected. For one cannot find a single courageous, honest, or straightforward man among the ranks of the left. They know that their ideas only benefit the leadership and do so at the expense of the people, They know that were they to come and claim that Marxism was the best thing for us all, and that the only logical thing to do was to eradicate the church, the connection by blood to the land, the heritage of our past ancestors, our Judeo-Christian morality, and the bond to the nation; for those are the things which would drive a man to perhaps vote in a different way. Instead all we hear is how we should feel sorry for little Ahmed who can't survive and needs to be fitted with an apartment and a color TV at our expense. We hear how children need to know that some men prefer to have anal sex with other men because it is a lesson in tolerance. We hear how the state will be our mothers and fathers and that we needn't worry our little heads with trivial matters such as our fundamental right to know what’s going on in government or have any say over our future course. Well my red friends, those days are gone and you shall soon follow them. There be a new rise of nations forming and with them the power and the pride of a stronger and more resolute Judeo-Christian Europe. We will not lay down to your Marxism any longer.

Obama Is Greater Than Jesus And To Hell With Those Who Transgress

 This ridiculous gushing comes to us from Politiken.dk;

 He comes from humble beginnings and defends the weak and vulnerable, because he can identify himself with their conditions.

 And no we are not thinking of Jesus Christ, whose birthday has just been celebrated - - but rather the President of the United States Barack Hussein Obama.

 For some time now, comparisons between the two have been a tool of cynical opinion that quickly became fatigued of the rapture that Obama instilled prior to and after the presidential election last year.

 From the start, Obama’s critics have claimed that his supporters have idolised him as a saviour, thus attempting to dismantle the concrete hope that Obama has represented for most Americans.

 The idea was naturally that the comparison between Jesus and Obama – which is something that the critics developed themselves – would be comical, blasphemous, or both.

 If such a comparison were to be made, it would, of course, inevitably be to Obama’s advantage.

 Today, his historic Health Reform is being passed through the American Senate – a welfare policy breakthrough that several of his predecessors have been unable to manage.

 Despite all the compromises, it has finally been possible to ensure something so fundamental, as the right of every American not to be financially shipwrecked when their health fails them. Add to that the biggest ever financial support package in America’s history, a major disarmament agreement and the quickest-ever re-establishment of American reputation.

 On the other hand, we have Jesus’ miracles that everyone still remembers, but which only benefitted a few. At the same time, we have the wonderful parables about his life and deeds that we know from the New Testament, but which have been interpreted so differently over the past 2000 years that it is impossible to give an unequivocal result of his work.

 Obama is, of course, greater than Jesus – if we have to play that absurd Christmas game. But it is probably more meaningful to insist that with today’s domestic triumph, that he has already assured himself a place in the history books – a space he has good chances of expanding considerably in coming years.

 Let me say first, my friends in America, that the cretin who wrote this is not your average hack journalist, he is far below that bar. He is, for lack of a better description, an absolute Marxist groupie with no purpose other than the flag bearing of his only living pop idol. You see, Che, Mao, Stalin, Lenin, and Pol Pot are all dead. This jackass needs a hero so bad, and craves attention so much that he will write anything in order to gain notice, no matter how ridiculous. So you will please excuse this moron from across the pond and pay no mind to his drivel.

 Obama, for all intensive purposes is the physical manifestation of the demise of the grand nation we all cherish and love. Lets address for a moment, his domestic aggression against the American people. He and his comrades in the “peoples” congress have been aware for a long time that the majority of the American people want nothing to do with nationalizing and forcing a government mandated healthcare system upon the people of the United States; they have decided to disregard the will of the people and force it upon them anyway. This much we know already. The main idea here is that the left wants total control over your lives; this also we know. But what most Americans need to talk about more is the fact that this is no longer a government for the people. This disregard is both arrogant and aggressive in nature. He has heard you, and ignored you. Now he wants to dominate you and rebuild the nation in his image.

 This is what the American people must act against. The United States never intended to be brought to these depths, but as Ronaldus Magnus once said, we are never more than a hair away from losing our freedom.  Unless we fight, and we fight with a passion that blots out the light of passion displayed by the forefathers of the United States, then this freedom will be lost.  My friends in the glorious United States, the time for action is here and now. 2010 may seem like the next logical step but I have not seen any movement from the Republican party that demonstrates even the appearance of leadership or (pardon me ladies) testicular strength. I think it is a foregone conclusion that a purge of leadership is the only answer to survival for the future of this nation.

 The great architects of the United States defined tyranny in ways which pale in comparison to what is being inflicted upon the American people today. Have we lost the passion, the desire for freedom, and the courage to stand up to such villainy that we are content with withering away into Marxist nonexistence? Are we so afraid of labels and name-calling that we are willing to sacrifice our destiny in order not be called out by cowards and seditious swine who care for nothing except their political longevity?

 I think not. I do not believe that we are lost. I do not believe that we are a shadow of our former selves. On the contrary, I believe that the famous cry of John Paul Jones shall ring true and we will fight. We should have no fear, no reservation. The uniformed services, which have been so horribly scorned by the Marxist UN pandering thugs of the left, shall never stand opposed to us. They are our brethren and will stand with us should we exercise our G-d given right to abolish a tyrannical, self serving, and authoritarian regime like we see in Washington today. Those who came before went on the notion of no taxation without representation. What will we go on? Suffice it to say I believe that things are far worse than they ever were before.  One thing is for sure, the halls of congress are no longer our venue; they have shown the people that they have no intention of carrying out the will of the people. Our venue today is clear; it is the field, the streets, and the vast expanses of our nations. We must use what tools we have left before it is too late.

Bombs On Aeroplanes, Napolitano Claiming The System Worked Exactly As It Should, and Our Video Of The Day

 Our good friend and distinguished Chief of Homeland security has announced to all of America that “the system worked exactly as it should” and that is enough to let all sleep much better this evening. If you are not stoking the fires under the cauldron of tar, or at least selecting the chickens which are to be plundered of their feathers, then you are either in orbit or you are one of them.

 Mrs, Mr. whatever you are, Napolitano, how dare you claim that the passenger reaction, crew reaction, etc..was in any way shape or form a part of your “system working correctly”.  It must take either extreme courage to make such a claim, or a total disregard for the truth and the consequences of speaking to the American people as though they are complete and utter imbeciles.  The passengers, one in particular, acted out of courage, fast thinking, and selfless disregard for their own safety in order to smash this putrid animal. They acted while you continue to wring your hands and make nice with the scum of the earth. It is you who put us in the most danger; you have handed the muslims the keys and they are doing what comes natural to them. It is you who have put our necks on the block with your touchy feely nonsense that they clearly take advantage of in order to kill more of us. We hold you responsible Napolitano, you and the rest of those who only care about your vote turnout and your so-called legacy with every country besides your own. You will be held accountable.

My Christmas Wish To The Uniformed Service And The Free World Who Stand United Against Tyranny

 To all those who stand the line, despite the immorality and sedition of the government which "commands", we offer our deepest most heartfelt gratitude for your service. Your blood is our most precious commodity. We shall never forget, never dishonour, and never allow your memory to be abused or disrespected. You represent the absolute finest in us all. Know this my brothers, your sacrifice upon the field lives in on in eternity and rests within the heart and soul of almighty G-d himself. For it is our lord G-d who blessed our nations with the righteous duty of leading the world and it is you who answered the call without hesitation. May G-d bless you al and keep you wherever you may be tonight; among the living and the dead alike.
