Why are groups of Somali men walking around my local streets , wearing
designer gear and gibbering in to the latest smartphones?

So much for "poor and destitute refugees".

Tennessee's House majority floor leader kicked off a scandal back home by calling for the creation of "a Council of Christian Relations and a NAAWP in this Country." But after the Facebook post came to light, Rep. Sheila Butt (R) said that her critics had it all wrong: "W" doesn't stand for White, it stands for Western!

Why people who live in the Western Hemisphere -- which includes everyone living in the United States -- would need a special-interest group wasn't addressed by Butt.

In my twenties and thirties I served in combat for the U.S. Navy, and at that time in my life I was a diehard supporter of Israel…probably due to the immense pro-Israel propaganda forged into our minds. Now, with a few more decades under my belt, I see three things which impress me even more about their country:

1. They know how to build large-scale walls that separate people! [...]

2. Israel, despite pressure from the Hebrew Immigration Aid Society (an American organization, who’s motto is “Welcome the stranger, Protect the refugee”), has resisted taking in immigrants of the refugee type seeking asylum, even when they are destitute. [...]

3. My third positive observation of Israel is that Israeli leaders stick up for their Jewish people. They even insist on calling their nation “The Jewish State”. However, the Majority in America, white descendants of our forefather’s who founded the United States, has been whittled down from about 90% to less than 70% of the demographics. Their voice has been greatly diminished, if not totally marginalized. Our government seems to lean persistently towards minority interests, while individuals and groups with traditionalist views are demonized with calumny and denigrating epithets. Our country rejected the ideal of maintaining homogeneity in American demographics by repealing the Immigration Act of 1924 and replacing it with the Open Immigration Act of 1965 under the lead of Senator Jacob Javits. However, in Israel there are countless public and private groups, like Lehava and Birthright Israel, which support strong Jewish identity and fight assimilation. Zionism, itself, is a movement designed to protect the homogeneity of the Jewish people.

The three strong points I make for Israel are inversely treated by our government on our soil. Yet, there is overwhelming evidence that shows that the same main lobbying force, the Jewish community, is at work. Double standards between their activism for Israel and the U.S. suggest that duplicity is at play.

[...]

if it’s not enough that one ethnic group owns or controls all key positions that matter in the policies, functions and cultural direction of our nation, their wealthy organizations like the ADL and SPLC are notorious for attacking and stifling individuals who simply wish to have free association with groups that represent interests contrary to their liking. Case in point is where the House Majority Whip Steve Scalise was recently assailed in the mainstream media for attending a European-American Unity and Rights Association meeting (EURO). Shouldn’t this congressman have not only the right, but the duty, to listen to a variety of opinions across the board of his constituency without getting smeared? Would he have been smeared if he attended an NAACP or La Raza (“the Race”) meeting? No. Clearly there is a problem here, and at this rate America may become the antithesis of what it claims to stand for. Two aspects of this have been the strong (Jewish led) push for hate speech laws that will turn any constructive criticism into jail time if made against the interests of their powerful groups, and the other is the massive immigration of non-Europeans that can transform the U.S.A. into a third world country.

[...]

As it stands today, most mainstream media giants, like Disney and CNN, have been taken over by the same small ethnic minority. Can it even be argued that this media is getting more degenerate every year, while wholesome “profanity/obscenity-free” programming is harder and harder to find? (See, e.g., “Dirty Jews and the Christian Right, Brilliant actors like Larry David and Sarah Silverman are challenging America’s powerful religious, family-friendly culture and asserting their Jewishness by glorifying obscenity,” Haaretz, Feb. 10, 2014.)

Adana Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Huseyin Sozlu instructed the municipality’s police to hang Turkish flags at the entrance of Starbucks locations across Adana on Feb. 22, in response to apologies issued by Starbucks and California-based designer Timothy Rose to the Armenian community. The apology came after the company featured a controversial photograph—depicting women wearing what appeared to be Armenian traditional costumes and standing under balloons carrying the Turkish crescent and star—in a marketing campaign around the Los Angeles area, which angered many local Armenians.

According to Turkey’s demokrathaber.net, at least five Starbucks locations throughout Adana were draped in Turkish flags.

Sozlu, a member of Turkey’s Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), a Turkish far-right political party informally known as the Grey Wolves, released a statement about his decision to hang the flags:

"We have responded to this attack by hanging our glorious flag from Starbucks shops in Adana. Our flag is sacred to us and will wave in every corner of our country forever.”
“We have responded to this attack by hanging our glorious flag from Starbucks shops in Adana. Our flag is sacred to us and will wave in every corner of our country forever.”
“As it happens every year, the Armenian Diaspora, which is prepared to make unsubstantiated accusations against our country and the Turkish nation, was able to remove posters that featured our flag from Starbucks locations in the Los Angeles area. They used the influence gained by the number of Armenians in the area. We do not find it right that [Starbucks]— by accepting the reaction of the Armenians—is becoming a party to this injustice,” read the statement. “ This year, on April 24, the Armenian Diaspora will attack the Turkish nation and Turkey with more force than in the past. They have started the year, which they see as the 100th anniversary of the alleged Armenian Genocide, with a campaign to remove our flag. We have responded to this attack by hanging our glorious flag from Starbucks shops in Adana. Our flag is sacred to us and will forever wave in every corner of our country.”
