Almost all of last year's top-10 darlings are still favorites this year (US baby names.) with a few exceptions. Revealing a rise in Arabic names, Muhammad and Aaliyah made the top 10 for the first time, replacing Mason and Layla.
Muhammad is considered the most popular name in the world, and UK news site Independent says it is "given to an estimated 150 million men and boys.
This has happened in other countries over the years and two things happened in conjunction with that.
1. Terrorism incidents increased
2. Antisemitism increased.
They tried to hide it in 2017 but got caught lying. And we all know what is happening in the UK as terror attacks continue and the left panders to the antisemitism of Muslim voters.The same has happened in various European countries.
Will it happen in the US? It's nice to imagine that the US is different; that it has some magical ability to resist all this. But look at the Dems response to antisemitism by the squad and their fans. No censure; only inclusion and support. Two leading 2020 candidates have made it clear that Israel is in their sights if they win.
I suspect the Corbynization of the Dems and an America that has Mohammed as the 10th most popular baby name has begun. And if the Dems win in 2020, well, goodnight Irene.
Naval base shooter named: MOHAMMED Saeed Alshamrani. Who coulda seen THAT coming?
ReplyDeleteLet me be the 2nd to comment.
ReplyDeleteMohammad is an awful name. Sorry. I mean no offense to anyone. I just don't find it aesthetically attractive.
Yes, Islam is coming westward. You'll notice the movement of people is not reciprocal. That being a fact, why are they cast as wonderful and Westerners especially the US as something less, lacking and not up to snuff by them and their Left wing toadies?
Why are they and others so intent on coming to this country when it is portrayed as such an awful place? I'm obviously not the first to mention this, but why isn't it talked about each and every day and shoved down the throats of every racist progressive peddling his/her obnoxious propaganda?
" It's nice to imagine that the US is different; that it has some magical ability to resist all this."
There was no magic to it. We used to teach History and Civics. We stopped. The young today and probably their parents have no connection to real American and World History nor any idea how this country actually works and its brilliance. You know, morons. I'm afraid we're on the retrograde end of a civilizations cycle. Stupidity, ignorance, superstition and the like are making a comeback. Those involved never feel like that's the case. They think of themselves as enlightened. But factual arguments and the sound weighing of evidence as a civilizational value seem to be fading.
Gee, when I went to the 1964 World's Fair in New York, the future looked so grand.
I bet most progressive Jews think this is wonderful, wonderful news.
DeleteCurrent trajectory looks like this: in the next 30 years Western Europe will be completely Islamized, with over half of it's population replaced. UK and France will become extremely dangerous with nuclear arsenal maintained by still competent native converts.
Here the Democrat Party will become openly Nazi level antisemitic, with destruction of Zionist entity as a major part of it's platform (within 10 years). US army will contain significant number of Muslim troops and Muslim officers at all levels of command.
Democrat Presidents will interfere in Israeli elections producing ever more extreme Leftist appeaser governments.
After territorial withdrawals and mass evacuations international boycotts and UN condemnations will increase.
US foreign aid, and military assistance will be redirected to PA.
At some point a Democrat President supported by Islamic NATO allies will find an excuse for a military against Israel. This will be hugely popular.
At the same time increasingly Muslim infested US government will remove any form of protection from Jewish citizens.
I don't think they'll go the German route, but life will become quite miserable for American Jews. There will be quotas for University admissions, ideological purity checks at workplace, and constant government and activist harassment.
It is good we have only 12 years left.
Delete64 Worlds Fair???? I wonder if I saw you there? I won a trip along with 11 other newspaper boys. It was a wondrous thing. Weal;so saw a bunch of NYC's main attractions including the premier of the Pink Panther at Radio City Music Hall.

I don't know if I saw you (standing there), but we did see Carol Channing who brushed past my little sister. Of course, I had no idea who she was. But not long thereafter I did own a 45rpm of Louis Armstrong singing "Hello Dolly." The '64 World's was in Queens. Louis Armstrong lived in Queens. Carol Channing appeared at the fair in Queens. I was born in Queens. What does it mean? Nothing but fond memories.
DeleteAmerican and Saudi authorities have stated that the Pensacola shooter and his buddies were "extreme vetted," yet 6 are in custody and the shooter dead. 3 Saudis for filming the event the other 3 who knows. If extreme vetting produces these results I'm not impressed with it.

from Mosaic Magazine (2019/10/30):
...the extreme progressive Democrats and their allies
who try to delegitimize and demonize Israel have
managed [to make commonplace] a set of mantras...
about the Israel-Palestinian conflict without
questioning their veracity. For instance:
“Israel is or is bound to become an apartheid state
or lose its Jewish identity”;
“Israel is a colonialist and racist state that illegally
occupies Palestinian territory and builds illegal settlements”;
“Israel occupies Gaza”; [and other] nonsensical claims.

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“Israel was unwilling to return to the pre-1967 borders, which made it extremely vulnerable to attack – only 10 miles wide at its narrowest point, and its north and south could easily be cut off. It also did not want to see Syrian troops once again on the Golan Heights, from which they had fired munitions into the Israeli civilian areas* below.
The Arab states were unwilling to make peace in exchange for anything except Israel’s complete destruction.”
* HISTORICAL NOTE: Syrian troops used the Golan Heights to fire munitions into Israeli civilian areas, even during peacetime, when there was no war being fought.

Even if Crossfire Hurricane was started by virtuous leaders in technically correct fashion, they can still abuse power in their zeal. Looks like these Trump haters were dirty cops. The damage they have caused is significant, including to national security interests, by lust for political power. Refusing to accept the people's voice. If they did these acts, and more in setting the whole thing up, justice will only be served if they are held accountable. It may already be too late to fix the damage brought by their tactics. Talk about only having 12 years!
ReplyDeleteBarr says it best: Their case collapsed after the election, and they never told the court. And they kept on getting renewals on these applications. There were documents falsified in order to get the renewals. There was all kinds of withholding of information from the court,” Barr said. “And the question really is, 'What was the agenda after the election that kept them pressing ahead after their case collapsed?' He's the president of the United States.”
DeleteLooks to me like Durham and Barr are set on holding them accountable even if Horowitz didn't. To me, Comey saying he wasn't sure if the pee tape was real or not told me all I needed to know about that freaking clown. I mean, c'mon. How ludicrous can someone get?
Hard to know what actually is and what will be. However, even before the Downer-Papadopolous predicate, which to the IG made it lawful, they appear to have been trying to set him up so they could spy. Which opened the door to Steele. The abuse of counterintelligence, and doing the illegal acts overseas, against Americans, a candidate, and the sitting president, to the progressive, matters not at all. Too blinded to see the damage they are causing as they pompously point fingers elsewhere. What a sorry lot, if they were not so dangerous to the civil liberties of all.
