Nerocrats? →
For three days four EU commissioners cooked to their heart’s delight under the approving eye of renowned chefs. The event was organised to highlight European cultural diversity.
It’s worth noting, of course, that the “cultural diversity” displayed at such events is of a distinctly Potemkin variety, roughly analagous to the old Soviet custom of regularly rolling out a troupe of folk dancers...

The Grass Roofs of Norway →
Turf roofs in Norway are a tradition and you will see them everywhere. Roofs in Scandinavia have probably been covered with birch bark and sod since prehistory. During the Viking and Middle Ages most houses had sod roofs. In rural areas sod roofs were almost universal until the beginning of the 18th century. Tile roofs, which appeared much earlier in towns and on rural manors, gradually superseded...

Never-Seen: Hells Angels, 1965 →
From Jesse James to Tony Soprano, outlaws have always held a singular if ambiguous place in America’s popular imagination: we fear and loathe their appetite for violence, yet we envy and covet their freedom. In early 1965, LIFE photographer Bill Ray and writer Joe Bride spent several weeks with a gang that, to this day, serves as a living, brawling embodiment of our schizoid relationship...

A Masculinist View of the Futility of the “Right”
So while the Right deprives itself of the elitist cultural creativity of homosexuals, the Left “accepts” and thus attracts them, but then demands submission to an anti-cultural feminist-socialist-egalitarian “Gay” identity.

Amerindians in Iceland? →
Scientists tracing the genetic origins of an Icelandic family believe the first American arrived in Europe around the 10th century, a full five hundred years before Columbus set off on his first voyage of discovery in 1492. Norse sagas suggest the Vikings discovered the Americas centuries before Columbus and the latest data seems to support the hypothesis that they may have brought American...

Picasso’s paradoxical politics →
The politics of Pablo Picasso- the self-proclaimed royalist and “apolitical communist”- was rather complicated. He even had a Falangist connection:
This lack of funds played into the hands of the newly created right-wing political organization the Falange and its charismatic leader, José Antonio Primo de Rivera (whose father had endeared himself to Picasso in 1917 by approving of...

Tolkien vs. Beatles →
Once upon a time, the Fab Four—having slain the pop charts—decided to set their sights on the Dark Lord Sauron by making a Lord of the Rings feature, starring themselves. One man dared stand in their way: J.R.R. Tolkien.

Vatican vs. Opus Angelorum →
The Vatican has warned bishops worldwide against “deviant” behaviour by a small traditionalist Austrian movement that promotes devotion to angel… Formed half a century ago in Austria and close to traditionalists, the Opus Angelorum association claims, among other things, that women who have had abortions are possessed by the devil. Present in Europe, Asia and America, it counts...

Obama's Expanding Covert Wars →
The Washington Post is reporting that the Obama administration has substantially expanded the role of US special operations forces across the globe as part of what the paper calls Washington’s “secret war” against al Qaeda and other radical organizations. Obama, according to the paper, has increased the presence of special forces from 60 countries to 75 countries. US Special...

global tourism vs. local culture →
JIAJU, China - In 2005, the National Geographic China magazine named this ethnic Tibetan village in western Sichuan province, sprawled over a valley amid snow-capped mountains, China’s most beautiful. Depending on how you look at it, that distinction was either a blessing or a curse…

Adolf the Red? →
Remaining in the army, he was sent to Bavaria to fight against left-wing revolutionaries. (And yet Mr. Weber has discovered that, briefly at the turn of 1918-19, and unmentioned in “Mein Kampf,” Hitler wore a red brassard and supported the short-lived Bavarian Soviet Republic.) Demobilized, he became an informer for the army’s propaganda unit— though whether he volunteered or was...

Clive Bell: Art [and Tradition?] →
“Bell may, indeed, be the least liked member of Bloomsbury. Bell has been found wanting by biographers and critics of the Group – as a husband, a father, and especially a brother-in-law. It is undeniable that he was a wealthy snob, hedonist, and womaniser, a racist and an anti-Semite (but not a homophobe), who changed from a liberal socialist and pacifist into a reactionary appeaser. Bell’s...

Hispanics Against Illegal Immigration →
Oops! The open borders crowd might find this statistic a bit inconvenient:
In 2007, 50 percent of Latinos surveyed told the Pew Hispanic Center that the growing number of illegal immigrants was a positive force for the existing Latino population. In a Pew survey released Thursday, that number had plummeted to 29 percent.

The GOP/Narcoterrorist Connection →
Joe DioGuardi is masquerading as an off-the-shelf, GOP, pro-life, small-government conservative. But what he also is — and the typical Tea Party candidate is not — is a supporter of a radical terrorist organization tied to Albanian organized crime, which is rampant in New York. Is this a cynical and discriminatory ploy to taint Joe DioGuardi, and an entire nationality, with the criminal element...

Spike Lee: Absolut Hypocrite →
A group of Brooklyn teens this summer took to the streets of Bed-Stuy to count billboards and posters that promote alcohol in their neighborhood. The most frequently spotted ad? “A Spike Lee Collaboration” with Absolut Vodka. How shocking!
“You’re not supposed to be promoting stuff like that in areas that can barely afford food.”

You know, I’m looking at the two most recent transfers of power in Communist countries — from Fidel to his brother Raul Castro and from Kim Jong Il to his young son — and I’m wondering how I missed the part in the Communist Manifesto where the leaders of the revolution leave their offices to their family members.

Rabbi Yosef is the former Sephardi Chief Rabbi of Israel and the founder and spiritual leader of the Shas Party, one of the three major components of the current Israeli government. “Why are...

Notes for the reactionary of tomorrow →
An old Joseph Sobran essay from his National Review days:
A political and legal system has to be based on the moral habits of its citizens, if it is concerned with anything more than power. To say that “that government is best which governs least” is not to yearn for anarchy: it is to say that those laws are best that don’t require a huge apparatus of surveillance and...

In 1900, Greek divers rifling through an ancient shipwreck recovered dozens of bronze fragments that turned out to be parts of a 2,000-year-old mechanical calendar. Now, more than a century after that discovery, scientists who studied these pieces are hailing the device as remarkably advanced for its time.

Tumors were rare until recent times when pollution and poor diet became issues, the review of mummies, fossils and classical literature found. A greater understanding of its origins could lead to treatments for the disease, which claims more than 150,000 lives a...

“When a soldier killed a man he earned the title of first-stage Bodhisattva (Buddha-to-be). The more he killed the more he went up the echelon towards sainthood … the insurgents were given an alcoholic drug that made them crazy to the extent that fathers and sons no longer recognized each other and didn’t think twice before killing each other; the only thing that mattered was killing.”

Right Wing Anarchism →
“The anarchist in his purest form is he, whose memory goes back the farthest: to pre-historical, even pre-mythical times; and who believes, that man at that time fulfilled his true purpose … In this sense the anarchist is the Ur-conservative, who traces the health and the disease of society back to the root.”
