OF COURSE HUNTINGTON KENNAN CHINA
Huntington was not above falsifying recent history himself.
Just one glaring example, ch 12 again, his discussion of civilizational conflict re China. The Clash, pb p 312 313.
'The emergence of China as the dominant power....contrary to American interests as they have been historically construed' Huntington
Nothing could be further from the truth.
He knew perfectly well this was false, much better than someone like myself.
I go with Kennan:
Kennan (1960s re 1900 ish, and later, until Mao):
"Out of all these ingredients there was brewed the curious view of China that seems to have animated American statesmanship during the war; the picture of a helpless, deserving nation, for whose virtues we alone, among the great powers, had understanding, whose interests we had to sponsor in the face of Japanese enmity and British callousness, and whose grateful support in the postwar period we could take for granted as a mainstay of the world position we hoped to occupy. China was, in fact, and on this we insisted with a most extraordinary vehemence, to be one of the future great powers--- one of what F.D.R. called the 'four world policemen'"
"In this highly subjective picture of the Chinese, there was no room for a whole series of historical and psychological realities. There was no room for the physical ruthlessness that had characterized Chinese political life generally in recent decades; for the formidable psychological and political powers of the Chinese people themselves; for the strong streak of xenophobia in their nature; for the lessons of the Boxer Rebellion; for the extraordinary exploitative talent shown by Chinese factions, at all times, in turning outside aid to domestic political advantage."
"It was this idealized view of the Chinese, rather than any illusions about the relationship between the National Government and the Chinese Communists, which was most damaging to our Far Eastern policy. We did, to be sure, underrate the depth of the antagonism between these two elements. Our memories of what had transpired in 1927 were certainly shorter (if they existed at all) than were those of Mao and Chiang and Stalin. There also seems to me to have been a certain naivete, but nothing worse, in our efforts to bring about a political compromise between these two factions, and to induce Stalin to join us in this effort....". Russia and The West Under Lenin And Stalin, p 374.
CENTRAL PRIVATE BANKS PREFER WEAK GOVERNMENTS WHICH DO NOT GO TO WAR
and do not have revolutions.......
That is the lesson of The House Of Rothschild, volume 1.

RE MULTICULTURALISM ETC
Perhaps some of you will ask, why question multiculturalism? There are reasons.
I write this mainly for myself, not for you. So, I mainly say things that I feel required, for myself, to say, having read certain things, and thought about some things, here and there.
It is really a personal journal, so to speak.

RE MULTICULTURALISM END OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION
Multiculturalism is everywhere here.
One might say that the principle was written into our constitution.
The stake in the heart, so to speak, of Western Civilization.

FINISHING UP V1 THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD
Great book.
Re who owns BOE, here is an interesting discussion.
Of course it, BOE was ostensibly nationalized in 1946.
Is that the end of the story?

This youtube guy is wacko, re Zionism and his anti semitism, but interesting discussion of ownership of the BOE, those issues aside.

RE THE CENTRAL BANK SKEPTIC NYT ARTICLE
You would get the impression that the Fed is a government agency.
Nothing could be further from the truth.

SEE DK CURRENT POST IN TIME
Great article.
Two things I think might be mentioned, among others I am not well enough versed to address really at all.
A token Jewish homeland had been a small concession, mainly by the British, to try to keep the Russians in the war, in 1917. DK mentions the mandate, in 1919.
DK also mentions US Japan negotiations breaking down during WWII.
What most Americans do not know, it seems to me, is not only was Stalin justifiably concerned about a second front in Asia against Japan, but also that he was perfectly willing to enter into an agreement, the 1941 Pact with Japan, to, in effect, give Japan a free hand to the south in Asia against the Allies, but especially against the US, which although it had not yet entered the war as an ally, nevertheless was Japan's principle threat to expansion and domination in the Pacific. This Pact paved the way for Pearl Harbor and the Japanese destruction of the Pacific Fleet.
There is no doubt that Stalin knew this at the time. Just as he was trying to send Hitler against the West, he then succeeded in sending Japan against them, and us.

CHINESE IMMIGRATION
Huge problem for Russia.
Most liberal Americans say, let everyone in who wants in.. anywhere they happen to want in.
Globalist, ultra conservative, civil libertarians ought, at least in principle, to have the same view, don't let any government, anywhere, push an individual around.
Laissez faire.

HISTORICALLY AMERICA IS BASED ON THE PRINCIPLE OF WEAK GOVERNMENT EVERYWHERE
At least for the moment, you got your wish in many places.

It won't get better before it gets much much worse.

RE NYT PUTIN ISOLATED
He is not isolated, it seems, by China, apparently.
Why, do you think?
Take a guess.
If he is isolated, is he not a threat to global growth?
Another interesting point, why is China not also 'isolated',
so to speak,
rather than merely a 'threat' to global growth?
What is the difference, if any, between being isolated from, versus being a threat to, global growth?
Great question.

RE GLOBAL GROWTH
RE BBC CHINA POSES THREAT TO GLOBAL GROWTH, IMF
Global growth itself is a failed ideology.
Just one example of why, is that one country, like China, can threaten it, so to speak.

RE CHINA REPORTEDLY VIOLATES
"I am shocked, shocked, to see that gambling is going on here", (at Rick's).
Never, in the history of human conflict.......
Steingart has a passage p 163 echoing my remark, "Never in the history of human conflict...."
"BUSINESS EXECUTIVES ARE LOATH TO DISCUSS..."
"Never before in history has there been such a massive transfer of knowledge--without war or conquest-- from one social group to another"

RANDALL COLLINS GREAT STUFF
http://sociological-eye.blogspot.com/2015/10/even-without-gun-control-warning-signs.htmlat
What was of special interest to me was the apparent connection to Asperger's Syndrome, a mental condition I have studied casually re L S Lowry, and his art work.

RE RUSSIA GEOPOLITICS CIVILIZATIONS
There may be those for whom my isolated remarks here have created an erroneous impression, and implied hostility to Russia.
I believe that Russia, and all Russians, would have been better served by a return to a dynastic monarchy, and gradual steps toward constitutional monarchy, than what occurred in 1917 and after.
Furthermore, I believe that Russia was too big, even then, to be well served by one overarching autocratic Imperial system.
It was a threat both to its own civilizational brethren, and to other smaller states in neighboring civilizations, even as it still is today.
That is why I suggested that it should have been partitioned back in 1917 1918. Get the Bolsheviki out, return to monarchy, move toward constitutionalism, etc.
It was not a suggestion merely trying to be mean to Russians, but rather to look to solve problems caused by so large and overhanging an expanse, both within, and adjacent to, the Orthodox world.

RE ROUSSEAU NOBLE SAVAGES THE MENU IT TAKES A VILLAGE
Professor Allison paints an enchanting noble savage picture, in a Teaching Company video, from Before 1776, of New England area Native Americans' war practices, and ritual eating habits, including ritual noble torture, and nobly eating the heart (at least) of brave, vanquished, properly tortured enemies.
One critical distinction, from an individualist anarchist like Ayn Rand, is that these Native American noble savages, like Burroughs' Babangos, are conceived as tribally noble, as contrasted sharply with the individualist, entrepreneurial, anarchist, Rand ian, anti civilizational, single and unique noble savage, Tarzan.
Burroughs considered advanced Western civ ignoble, just as Rand did I think.
'Civilization' for them was itself strictly Western. The rest was not civilized.
"Civilization" was, for them, as it had been for Cecil Rhodes, a singular term.
yet, to paraphrase Mrs Clinton, it takes a village to make a good noble, or ignoble, savage, cannibal or not.

THE MENU THE MAKER'S DIET CULTURAL RELATIVITY MULTICULTURALISM AYN RAND INDIVIDUALISM
See Tarzan And The Champion, the diet of the Babangos.
The book contains somewhat of a recipe, or at least a procedure, call it a topic for a culinary anthropology article, "Meat Tenderization Among The Babangos".
Burroughs even criticized, tongue in cheek I assume, those who claimed that this was a bad diet!
His earlier work had characterized all cannibals as degraded, but he went back to his Rousseau esque noble savage roots for this one, and for these now noble cannibals.
If the ideal was merely a noble savage, then all, among these savages, is permitted.
Why then not a noble savage cannibal?
Cf. "Understanding A Primitive Society", Peter Winch
Why not let Americans vote on an issue like this, if it ever comes up, viz whether to locally legalize cannibalism (say on the model of Mormon polygamy, another multicultural bugbear) , state by state, or even county by county, or city by city, or even say street by street (direct democracy)?
Why should the feds tell local cannibal tribes what to do?

UNFORTUNATELY THEY WERE DELUDED BACK THEN TOO
"But a half-century ago, despite the very real excesses of the CIA abroad, Americans believed more deeply in the Constitution and the American criminal justice system than they do today." DK
I perhaps should add, for clarity, that who was 'deluded' was Americans, not the CIA, then or now.

THE FUNDAMENTAL CIVILIZATIONAL PROBLEM
has been that Western Civ needed to expand into the Slav Civilization, Westernizing it as it went, not the other way around.
Similarly, we should have encouraged Japan's encroachments into China, especially after they had proved themselves in the Japanese Russian war of 1905.
