• Philip Weiss: Israel is falling apart, and American leaders are in denial

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 17th 2024 11:59am EDT

    Israel falling apart, by Philip Weiss, an American Jew who is on the left, but unlike most Jewish liberals, he deplores Israel’s conduct toward the Palestinians. I respect his opinions and have commented on his work many times. Several left-wing voices have said lately that Israel is falling apart. The society is torn over the war, […]

  • Ross Douthat: Trump as Hegelian Man of Destiny

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 16th 2024 12:59pm EDT

    Donald Trump, Man of Destiny … The scene on Saturday night in Pennsylvania was the ultimate confirmation of [Trump’s]  status as a man of destiny, a character out of Hegel or Thomas Carlyle or some other verbose 19th-century philosopher of history, a figure touched by the gods of fortune in a way that transcends the […]

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 16th 2024 10:45am EDT

    [Nothing terrifies Jews more than a large crowd raising their arms and chanting.] Authoritarianism expert Ruth Ben-Ghiat [she seems to be a favorite of HuffPo] on Monday addressed the moment at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee when Republicans chanted the word “fight” soon after GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump walked into the auditorium. The chant […]

    The Globalists’ Desperate Move to Kill Trump (arktosjournal.com) [Hard to believe that Crooks is part of a globalist conspiracy, but…] Alexander Dugin asserts that the assassination attempt on Trump was predictable and orchestrated by globalists with deep state support, marking an escalation in their desperate bid to retain power amidst the shift to a multipolar […]

  • Labour Loathe White Workers: How Slippery Starmer Has Slithered to Supremacy to Serve Semites

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 15th 2024 8:45am EDT

    Words don’t rule reality, but they do manipulate minds. Take British politics. If honesty prevailed there, the Labour Party would be renamed the Lawyer Party. Millions of its deluded supporters would finally see the truth and stop voting for a party that hates them. Labour was founded to advance the White working class, but it […]

  • James Edwards Interviews Warren Balogh

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 14th 2024 11:08am EDT

    [Notice Trump lost the Reform Party nomination in 2000 to Pat Buchanan and that at the party convention Trump called Buchanan a “Hitler lover”  who “doesn’t like the blacks, doesn’t like the gays.”] What follows is an interview conducted by James Edwards with Warren Balogh. It was originally published by the American Free Press. James Edwards: […]

  • The Occidental Observer - Jul 14th 2024 10:54am EDT

    I mentioned the rhetoric on the left that provided a context for the assassination attempt. An article by Jonathan Turley in The Hill has some examples, from BIden and prominent figures in the left media. The assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump left a nation stunned. But the most shocking aspect was that it was not nearly […]

  • German Youth Are Rejecting National Shame (well, perhaps somewhere between 16 and 22 percent of them)

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 13th 2024 11:39am EDT

    Nevertheless, the numbers of young people embracing the AfD is increasing. Notice that non-White migrants are unconcerned about Holocaust guilt—something Jews should be concerned about. And many, especiaally Muslims, are anti-Israel. From The European Conservative. For generations of German children, this caustic burden has been placed on their shoulders at a young age and the unfairness […]

  • Whiffing with the Bases Loaded: The Supreme Court Wrongly Decides Murthy v. Missouri

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 13th 2024 9:37am EDT

    As an advocate for a robust First Amendment on free speech issues, I approach many (not all) of the U. S. Supreme Court’s major free speech cases with something like religious reverence.  Amid a welter of social and political pressures and competing values, the Court, it seems to me, has created with fair clarity some […]

  • Comments on David Brooks’ “The Deep Source of Trump’s Appeal”

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 12th 2024 12:03pm EDT

    Comments on an excerpt from  David Brooks in The New York Times: based on James Davison Hunter’s Democracy and Solidarity: On the Cultural Roots of America’s Political Crisis. My comments in bold. In public discourse, identity politics is more associated with the left. Progressivism used to be oriented around how to make capitalism just; but now […]

  • BBC Chooses ‘Racially Diverse Cast’ To Play Characters In Drama About 1066 Battle Of Hastings

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 12th 2024 11:14am EDT

    I know this is old hat by now but it’s certainly a good marker of the decay of White culture. The wonder is that William the Conqueror and King Harold aren’t depicted as African with a few White peasant soldiers. We can be thankful for that! Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Modernity.news, The BBC […]

  • Britain is Now a Sectarian Society

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 11th 2024 10:30am EDT

    England is now a sectarian society. As of the General Election, on 4th July, some people are sent to parliament by specific religious and ethnic communities simply because they are members of those communities, not because of the policies they espouse. A system which has long existed in sectarian Northern Ireland has now come to […]

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 10th 2024 2:25pm EDT

    Two more votes and they’d destroy every town in America On MSNBC, they’re convinced that the Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity will finally usher in the long-feared Trump Dictatorship, though I’m almost certain the Supreme Court explicitly limited the immunity to presidential acts authorized, or even required, by the Constitution. Staging a coup would […]

  • The Moscow-Delhi Axis

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 9th 2024 2:46pm EDT

    From Arktos. Modi and Putin are currently defining the structure of the Moscow-Delhi axis, one of the most crucial pillars of a multipolar world order. Bharat (also known as India) is a state-civilization. Russia-Eurasia is another state-civilization. Clarifying their relations in terms of geopolitics, economics, and culture is fundamental. We are all now learning to […]

  • JTA on the French Election

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 8th 2024 12:43pm EDT

    JTA: “French voters reject far right — but elevate left-wing alliance with history of antisemitism allegations” In a surprise outcome, French voters rejected a far-right party with antisemitic roots — but elevated a left-wing alliance that has faced antisemitism allegations of its own. The country’s most prominent far-left politician (Mélencon), meanwhile, vowed in his victory […]

  • “Our” Man in Israel

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 7th 2024 11:22am EDT

    Introduction The issue of dual loyalty is an ancient one. As noted in a previous TOO article, [Stephen] Walt points out that Ross has a long involvement with pro-Israel activist organizations, such as being director of WINEP [Washington Institute for Near East Policy, a pro-Israel think tank headquartered in Washington, DC]. But Ross’s ties to […]

  • Some commentary on the British election

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 6th 2024 11:54am EDT

    Tobias Langdon sent me an email with an article from Spectator, noting “it’s a case of shabbos goy out, shabbos goy in.” But he thinks that “Labour’s lunacies” may end up being “very helpful in the long run.” This could well be the case, as Matt Goodwin’s comments (via email) below illustrate (he emphasizes that […]

    Do you need to translate Indonesian into English? Or Filipino into French? Japanese into German? No problem. Artificial intelligence will do all of that with ease. But there are some vital translations that AI won’t currently perform. It won’t translate English into English. Or French into French. Or German into German. Why is this a […]

  • Senilitygate and Mrs. Alito’s Flags

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 3rd 2024 3:00pm EDT

    Can you imagine if The New York Times had covered the Biden White House as closely as it covered Justice Samuel Alito’s wife’s collection of novelty flags? The media’s playing Praetorian Guard for one party isn’t good for democracy, but oddly, it’s not even good for the Democrats. Biden’s open-mouthed, faraway stare at a nationally […]

  • Fatal Antigone: Between Modern Lawfare and Cursed Heredity 

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 3rd 2024 3:01am EDT

    Authors and their literary heroes are always subject to conflicting interpretations in different historical contexts. Sophocles’ tragedy Antigone was performed quite differently in the Greek city state of fifth-century Greece than it is in contemporary versions crafted by modern producers and directors beholden to modern literary critics. The story of the mythical and rebellious princess […]

  • Roberta Kaplan as a Jewish Type

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 2nd 2024 4:29pm EDT

    Jewish lesbian Roberta Kaplan is a prominent leftist attorney involved in lawfare against the Charlottesville demonstrators, against Donald Trump in the E. Jean Carrol case, as well as in victorious efforts on behalf of gay marriage. As I wrote in a  previous article on Roberta Kaplan, she “is a good example of what makes Jewish […]

    The Occidental Observer - Jul 2nd 2024 11:00am EDT

    In my recent blog on the debate I contended that everyone knew Biden was impaired—even the big liberal media who were covering up for  him because they were satisfied that he was doing a great job because they were getting what they wanted out of him policy-wise because of the people around him who were […]
