http://admissionary.blogspot.com much easier to remember; I have to redo all my templates cause I spelled addmac instead of admacc the other day .. . this way I'll save myself from struggling with this template too and on top of that I probably won't write all that much about lesbians .. . bonobos maybe .. . .. there's monkey business at http://hyperstition.abstractdynamics.org as we speak .. .. .

been carryin on great googuly moogulying Israel Shamir

When I ran out of OOOOOOOOO, went back and forth google decided to offer quite a few more citations after all (perhaps this observation is entirely too subjective to ever become repeatable ((even by me)) and I am ashamed to waste your precious focus on it).

Anyway, before showing you what I found worthwile showing you (more likely just reminding myself of in the future and even that isn't very) I'll tell you how today's session ended:

Whooo, this gets wwweeeiiirrrdddeeerrr than weird by it's lonesome self; here I am gooooooooogleng along and click from 12th to 13 page . .. you'll never guess what happens (wish I had lots of readers to poll on this), not only does a page 8 show up (instead of 13) but it is also the last page whereas on the 12th I was looking at another 10 to go (at least) does this result number sorta fluctuate with traffic like blogger does (quite unpredictably too I might add)?

chroniclesmagazine.org/.. a commenter to this may 2005 article by Patrick Buchanan called 'Bringing the Arab Street to Power' posts a substantial review of 'Pardes' which reads in part: "Pardes" is a Hebrew acronym referring to four levels of meaning: peshat (plain meaning), remez (allusions), derash (hermeneutic), and sod (esoteric)." and gets roundly (if not soundly) scolded by the next: "Shamir is an asshole and so is anyone who quotes him."

theabsolute.net/ottow/#aphorisms

Hitler’s ideas of opposing Aryan and Jewish archetypes were drawn to a certain extent on the theories of a brilliant Viennese philosopher, Otto Weininger, who repudiated Jewry and was received into the Lutheran Church. For Otto Weininger, Jewishness was ‘neither a race nor a people nor a recognised creed, but a tendency of the mind’. He wrote: “I am dealing with Judaism, in the platonic sense, as an idea. There is no more an absolute Jew than an absolute Christian. To defeat Judaism, a Jew must first understand himself and war against himself. Only steady resolution, united to the highest self-respect, can free the Jew from Jewishness. Therefore the Jewish question can only be solved individually; every single Jew must try to solve it in his proper person” – by discovering God’s presence in the world, that is Christ.

The man Hitler called his ‘fatherly friend’, a Bavarian poet Dietrich Eckart combined an anti-Judaic line with anti-capitalist thought. He believed the Jewish element is present in all people and nations; it has to be overcome but can’t be totally annihilated7. Jewish and Aryan correspond to Ying and Yang opposites, in his view, and some ‘Jewishness’ (egoism) is needed ----
6 Bryan Mark Rigg, Hitler's Jewish Soldiers. The Untold Story of Nazi Racial Laws and Men of Jewish Descent in the German Military, kansaspress.ku.edu/righit.html ---- 7 Albert Lindemann, Esau’s Tears p 498 --- for a nation in order to survive. He had great respect for Jews who came to Christ. Hitler dedicated the second volume of Mein Kampf to him.

Despite his admiration for Weininger and love of Eckhart, pragmatically minded Hitler preferred, rather than fighting the Judaic approach, to imitate it by making ‘his own people, the Germans’ – the Chosen Folk. This racist attitude caused a sea of suffering to all nations of Europe and ruined the old continent for years to come. Still it is important to remember that a negative reading of Judaism (or Jewishness) is not inherently racist, but can be sublimely ideological and theological.

Anti-Judaic thought lies at the foundation of Christianity and Communism, to mention just two of most important ideologies.

"Israel Shamir" is a notorious hoaxster, a Russian neo-Nazi posing as an Israeli Jew. I have thrown this forum posters who used inflammatory anti-Muslim rhetoric, and I will throw out posters who use inflammatory anti-Jewish rhetoric as well. "Judaic church of Mammon" indeed! Next we will hear about desecrated hosts and children sacrified to make unleavened bread for the Jewish Passover! There is no excuse for this sort of thing, whether stated as one's own opinion or recycled from scurrilous imposters such as the so-called Shamir.

I was just writing this response:

I did expect reaction to the posting of quotes from Israel Shamir’s book; however, I am surprised that Spengler responded in such uncouth way. The views presented were those of Israel Shamir not mine. But I admit that his narrative offers some explanatory power just like Spengler’s. Both Spengler and Shamir write very well in a captivating style. Both dare to say things that are beyond the pale. For these reasons I read Shamir and read Spengler and then I also form hypotheses about why certain things are said and why some are omitted in their writings. I try to learn about the men. One can find more about real Shamir than about the Spengler as the former does not hide behind the penname. Both Shamir and Spengler are concerned with the decline of the West. However they see opposite causes and remedies. I hypothesize that Spengler is philo-Judaic and anti-Muslim and Shamir is anti-Judaic and pro-Muslim. Spengler’s concern about the West and Christianity does not seem to stem form the love for Christianity. In fact love is manifestly absent in his writings. On the other hand Shamir seem to deeply care for Christianity. It strikes me that Spengler is on the Right and Shamir is on the Left. Spengler’s reaction confirms my hypothesis that behind all his erudition and eloquence there is a man who is strongly biased and probably with a mission that he does not reveal. Nevertheless I will continue reading him not only for the pleasure of deconstructing him but for a need to be surprised by his often outrageous ideas that in some circles would qualify him as a sewer tenant as well.

when I saw further entries by elendil, Spengler and other that seemed to close th matter by dismissing Shamir as a kook and neo-Nazi... I am really sorry by your reaction. I see there is no point of discussing anything on this matter. Enjoy yourself cooking in your own sauces of mutual adoration society. Au revoir.

7. China dual currency system, Islamic dinar
Date: Mon, 11 Oct 2004 10:23:05 +0100 From: "Rowan Berkeley" rowan_berkeley@yahoo.co.uk


re : "Apart from the difference of mentality, China has a dual currency system and can develop freely - without dependency on the 'Elites' monetary system."

Could someone please elucidate the mechanics of dual currency systems, and explain what forces other than US intimidation prevent it from being adopted elsewhere?

By the way, my Muslim friends have placed on line streaming video files of the conference they recently held in Cape Town. Although the sound is poor, the material presented by Shaykh Abdalqadir and Omar Vadillo, regarding the delusory nature of terrorism and the lure of the Islamic Dinar, respectively, is of great interest. The latter as Vadillo explains it would be a dual currency system within which the domestic currency of more and more of the Muslim world would be authentic gold and silver - until such time as the global fiat currency crashes.

Callahan goes so far as to assert the towers were meant for that in the first place, combining active and passive defense I guess.

Paris:
aggression directed to vehicles are a reaction to displacement, the means of motoring being a conspicuous symptom/sign thereof.

One more reason to enrage French Muslims

.. . and their free speech opponents alike.

November 2nd, the day Theo v Gogh was slaughtered in broad Amsterdam daylight was this year the day a court fined a publisher of Israel Shamir 50.000 Euro.

reading Pardes by Israel Shamir right now, it's more enjoyable than the last time I went for his stuff;he had totally lost his cool over some atrocity but I am sceptical about his attempts to protect christianity from the curse of supremacy they rebelled against but were certainly infected with nonetheless; I say scrap them all. IS says Lenni Brenner routinely denigrates Islam, that's new to me; hadn't noticed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Shamir - 32k -- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/shamireaders/message/539 -- A french publisher has been fined for publishing him http://fr.altermedia.info/communiqu/ israel-shamir-a-paris_7956.html - 26k --- another right wing site in france: voxnr.com/cc/dep_interieur/EEFpVEkEZELZPgEIqE.shtml - 45k - Israël Shamir à Paris ... donnera une conférence et signera ses livres "L'Autre Visage d'Israël" et "PARDES une Etude de la Kabbale" (éditions al Qalam) Il échappe de justesse à une arrestation à l'aéroport de Tel Aviv sur requête de la LICRA --- Rappel : la même LICRA réclame 50 000 euros aux éditions Al Qalam (220 rue St Jacques, 75005) pour avoir osé publier le recueil "L'autre visage d'Israël" d'Israel Adam Shamir sur la place de Paris, et le jugement sera rendu à la 14ème chambre du TGI de Nanterre le 2 novembre prochain.

The unlicensed station was recently visited by the FCC. Also, we talk with folks at a counter-recruitment protest at Foothill College, discuss the Paris/France uprising, provide coverage of a rally at KFC, and hear about the California special election, Plus some great music from Mule Train (Santa Cruz musicians), Ryan Harvey, Defiance, Ohio, K-Otix, Mos Def, King Missile, The Coup, and more.

47 minutes into it you hear a short short bulletin concerning Paris, Ryan Harvey can be heard at the beginning and again (slow song this time) at 1.16 --- I strongly object to the song about protest for the hell of it and the 'fuck shit up' yell which is comparable to the allah akhbar as hear as cars are set alite.

strange little animation of the (((I)))

Trouble with my inspiration is that the moment they arrive they seem so obvious matterafact plain to see and never forget that I fail to jot them down and a few days later discover they've up and gone leaving a whif of treasure that took of leaving no forwarding adress. The other day I had the perfect subsumption and solution for the class/race/gender conundrum, resolving in a smoothly graduating spectrum with transitions easiest to negotiate .. . .but I can't think of it anymore. Another aspect of these losses is my reluctance to spoil the moment; when they do show up I am pleased like when meeting a longtime friend thought lost . .. only to lose them again .. .and again. Come to think of it I can't clearly recall and command the words I have used to play with this false division before except that they try to show it is one but caution, if you kill one (of its aspects) thinking you thereby kill them all the other two will revive it, so grapple with them at once like you have to when tackling monotheisms.


ps (next day): At first sight Israel Shamir's bias is remarkable. He asserts there

is no anti-semitism amongst Muslims. Let's examine wether the

west's constant harpicarping on about Muslim 'anti-semitism' could

be 'opgeklopt' and fausse, (certain) jews may use this as a way to

try distance themselves from siblings for examply. Zionists try

disqualify and disown genetic ties they more and more indisputably

(as days of DNA knowledge dawn grind and wears on) nevertheless

have in common (with the neighbours and in fact the whole region

and thus, one would think, expect and hope, offer compelling enough

reason and incentive if not filial affinity in itself to learn to

share a little more equitably.

transform(er casualtiz)ation triggers transfer mission

electrocuted while/cause hiding from pursuing police,

two (semi-)immigrants have triggered a civil suburbian war in France

hummer overfloweth
@ the mess that greenspan made blogspot

Tim Iacono souther Californian critiques easy money;

this item shows rows and rows and acres of unsold hummers with lots of comments

found at that wonderful site by The Bitch http://blog.culturelab.org/;

it offers a perfect antidote to that entirely other obsessing about

cars on the other side of one of the real mothers amongst fences

across the free world.



hyperstition.abstractdynamics.org/archives/006774 a

number of links to items concerning the Jihadi flavours of social

unrest in French 'breedboxburbs' (fokhokken would be a dutch

translation which brings out the connotational odds ((of

misfortune, exposure, towerdives and truth)) stacked against those

vain enough to believe they can distract from or weaken the impact

of the 3Ks in that word best).



On my dutch blog (intellectjuweel) I suggested an emergency rule

that would save any more cars from going up in flames. Make the

inhabitants they share burbresidence with, no longer feel locked

out of them. Revive the totally lefty/green solution to transport

congestion and low efficiency: hitch hiking. If only manners were

that pliable and conversion prone; if only respect and dignity were

a little car-ride away.



Much better but not very instant as solutions come and go either is

to grant 'ban-lieu sufferers' (spoiled as they are compared to

immigrants of last century) a small garden as a birthright and

within view. In mine that would be the least a 'fokhok' inhabitant

needs, merits, and must have to keep himself sound and sane if not

proud.



You can of course in the interest of keeping wages low have a

minority of labour armies in reserve, that is to say mobilized

(deprived of the autonomics that would lower their interest in

wages in the first place), which keeps their frustrations

simmering, in order to lower the wages the rest is able to

negotiate. Unionizing workers and 'chomeurs' and other across the

board rules likes flat tax are gaining ground once again but I

expect it won't be enough before a lot of devastation sets us back

(down closer to ground zero altogether) a few notches.
