Nexus X HumectressArticle by Kevin DeAnna. —————————————————————————————————- What a surprise!

[…]
Article by Ronald Brownstein. ——————————————————————————————————- The next America is arriving ahead of schedule. And it could rattle assumptions about the coming presidential election.

Article from the National Journal. —————————————————————————————————– In the map and chart below, National Journal projects the percentage of the white vote that President Obama will need to carry an individual state in 2012.

Article by Justin Raimondo. —————————————————————————————————— Like all US wars since the Revolution, this one is about the internal politics of the US, rather than a real external threat to our security. The Clintonian wing of the Democratic party is determined to regain power, and Hillary’s push for war […]
Article by Paul Craig Roberts. ———————————————————————————————— What we are observing in Libya is the rebirth of colonialism. Only this time it is not individual European governments competing for empires and resources. The new colonialism operates under the cover of “the world community,” which means NATO and those countries […]
An immensely important article from Michael Scheuer in The American Conservative. ——————————————————————————————————— The Arab world’s unrest has brought forth gushing, rather adolescent analysis about what the region will look like a year or more hence. Americans have decided that these upheavals have everything to do with the advent […]
An article critiquing the neocons from 2005. Fairly spot on. —————————————————————————————————-
Interesting article on economic history from Gary North. ————————————————————————————————— The economic historian Gregory Clark summarizes a remarkable fact. . . . there is no sign of any improvement in material conditions for settled agrarian societies as we approach 1800. There was no gain between 1800 BC and AD […]
Scott Locklin discusses the great sociologist. —————————————————————————————————— Vilfredo Pareto was arguably the greatest economist of the 1800s and possibly the greatest social scientist of all time. He was one of the first to suggest applying the cold hand of mathematics to what was previously a liberal art rather […]
Thomas Knapp challenges the great William S. Lind. ——————————————————————————————————- Writing in The American Conservative, William Lind bemoans the tendency revealed by current upheavals in the Middle East. “[T]he worst possible outcome … is the disintegration of states and their replacement either by statelessness — as we see in […]
Article by David D’Amato. —————————————————————————————————— Reporting on the “death toll for a grisly hostage situation” that began on Tuesday (March 29) in Iraq, the Associated Press counts 57 dead and 98 wounded. “Gunmen wearing explosives belts,” says the AP, seized a government building in the Iraqi province of […]
Review of Alain de Benoist by Alex Kurtagic. ————————————————————————————————— De Benoist begins by problematising this taken-for-granted term, democracy, and by showing that it is, and has been, used very loosely, cynically, imprecisely, disingenuously, and outright deceptively, to describe just about any system of government, from direct democracies to […]
Article by Justin Raimondo. ——————————————————————————————————– Given the routine misery and oppression the governments of the world inflict on their subjects as a matter of course, the opportunity for fresh interventions by the Forces of Goodness & Light is effectively unlimited. In cheerleading Obama’s Libyan adventure, the President’s supporters […]
Stephen Walt interviewed by Scott Horton. Stephen M. Walt, professor of international affairs at Harvard University and co-author of The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy, discusses the liberal interventionists and neoconservatives uniting in support of war in Libya; how the mission to protect Libyan civilians almost immediately […]
Watch the disgusting video. What a scumbag.
Interview with Lew Rockwell. Lew Rockwell is interviewed by Brian Wilson. Obama begins wars on his own, hopes to blackmail China by withholding oil, extends the conflict, maximizes chaos, and, oh yes, kills civilians. Meanwhile big banks gain, Americans lose, and there’s another inflated stock-market bubble.
Article by Walter Williams. ————————————————————————————————- One of the requirements to become a Dayton, Ohio police officer is to successfully pass the city’s two-part written examination. Applicants must correctly answer 57 of 86 questions on the first part (66 percent) and 73 of 102 (72 percent) on the second […]
Another episode in the daily litany of police state shenanigans.
Article by Mark Hackard. —————————————————————————————————— It is fitting that the initial phase of the U.S. attack on Libya was overshadowed in the media by college basketball finals, popularly and quite appropriately known as March Madness. Wars, akin to dated sitcom reruns, have no hope for ratings share considering […]
An interview with left-Rothbardian Roderick Long. Listen here. Much of this interview draws from Long’s original essay here.
Article from Claes Ryn from 2005. Ryn was discussing the Bushies, of course, but the same analysis applies to the present neocon-liberal alliance. —————————————————————————————————— The French Jacobins were followers of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who argued, “man was born free, but he is everywhere in chains.” For men to be […]

Posted at MRDA’s Inferno. —————————————————————————————————— Shame that some folk failed to get the memo… Watching Question Time on Thursday, I hadta roll my eyes at the moralistic endorsements of UN military intervention in Libya; Baroness Warsi‘s She-Ra fantasies of saving the poor Libyans from “the dictator killing his […]
Article by Stephen Walt. ——————————————————————————————————- But when foreign interveners oust an existing ruler and impose a wholly new government (which is what we are trying to do in Libya), the likelihood of civil war more than triples. Why? According to Downes, because deposing an existing regime and bringing […]
Article by Kevin Carson. —————————————————————————————————— If the Libyan people want an illustration of what will result from allowing the U.S. government any voice in how their postwar society is reconstructed, they need look no further than the work of Bremer’s CPA in Iraq. A modern prophet Samuel could […]
Article by Thomas Knapp. ————————————————————————————————– [A]n ideological philosophy and political movement that had been thought of as a dusty oddity, a relic of the late 19th century, has returned to the fore,” writes Abe Greenwald in Commentary. Worse yet, opines Greenwald, this return is fraught with “enough consequence […]

Interview conducted by Anthony Wile. ————————————————————————————————— I’m not sure if conspiracy is still the right word, because in the meantime, thanks to people such as Carroll Quigley, for instance, much is known about what is going on. In any case, it is certainly true that there are such […]
An immensely important work. Review by Brett Stevens. I plan to publish an extensive review/critique of this book of my own as part of an essay series I’m currently developing. ——————————————————————————————————– It’s unreasonable to expect book reviewers to be objective.

Article by Justin Elliot. Hat tip to Miles Joyner. ————————————————————————————————— An emphatic part of the White House messaging about the bombing in Libya is that the operation is truly international in character.

Watch the Video. ————————————————————————————————- The Nuwaubians, Dr. Malachi Z. York, and their views on the U.S government and paying taxes.
Article by Richard Spencer. —————————————————————————————————- The last time the Fed went nuts with monetary expansion, it did it in the wake of the Lehman collapse, on behalf, and likely at the behest, of the failing financial sector.

Article by David D’Amato. ————————————————————————————————- In what has become a sustained echo through the span of the war, BBC News reports that “Western forces have accidentally killed seven civilians in an air attack in” Afghanistan. Among those killed in the attack, which was ordered by NATO on March […]
From the Daily Mail. Whether one’s feelings about this projected demographic future are positive, negative, or indifferent, the question for our readers is this: What are the implications of this projected radical demographic change for our own movement? What does this mean for ideologies like anarcho-pluralism, pan-secessionism, national-anarchism, […]
Says a Gallup poll published in 2009. The U.S.A. is the top desired destination country.

Article by David D’Amato. ———————————————————————————————– CNBC reported recently of powerful Bahraini banker Khalid Abdulla-Janahi’s call for a “culture of meritocracy,” an appeal accompanied by the assertion that “[c]apital needs stability,” to be provided of course by the state. He added that meritocracy was consistent with the people’s desire […]
Article by Kevin DeAnna. This data is consistent with my own analysis of the immigration question. My contention is that U.S. elites are overwhelmingly pro-unrestricted immigration and to the degree there is any residual control of immigration at all, it is largely due to the presence of elements […]
