And Don't Forget the Shame and Idiocy of Oberlin College Prez Carmen Ambar

Like Claudine Gay, US colleges MUST have black presidents; for show and 'virtue signaling' of course.

Although Claudine Gay is in the news, don’t forget the sad, vindictive, and stupid Oberlin College President, Carmen Twillie Ambar. When will ‘they’ ever learn—the fools that hire other fools that is?

Oberlin’s Affirmative Action Hire: College Prez, Carmen Ambar

In 2016, three Oberlin students, Jonathan Aladin, Endia Lawrence and Cecelia Whettstone, all black, two were arrested (Lawrence and Whettsone) for simple battery and Aladin for shoplifting.

Later the University President Ambar and her administrator claimed racial profiling at Gibson's Bakery, which, after serving Oberlin for over 100 years, was nearly put out of business by their false claims.

The court system ruled in favor of Gibson’s Bakery, a family business near Oberlin College and was awarded $36 million dollars in damages. Still wrong, Ambar continued to refuse to pay the massive damages awarded to the Gibson family. Finally the school was forced to pay the Gibson family $36.4 million in damages to their reputation. No apology, no contrition, no remorse. These insane people are, well, insane!

Here’s a summary of the 2016 police incident report:

After interviewing the witnesses and due to Sgt. Ortiz and Officer Feuerstein's observations when they arrived on scene, the reporting officer believed there was enough probable cause to place Aladin under arrest along with the two females, one of which was already in custody due to her physically assaulting Gibson as officers pulled up.

Once in custody the females were identified as Endia Lawrence and Cecelia Whettstone. All three subjects were transported to the Oberlin police department where they were booked per department procedure without incident.

Lawrence and Whettstone were booked for Assault, Orc. #2903.13 (M1). Both individuals were assigned a court date of Friday, November 11, 2016, at 8:30am and then released on a personal recognizance bond of $1,000.00. Aladin was booked for one count of Robbery, Orc. #2911.02 (F2), and also assigned a court date of Friday, November 11, 2016, at 8:30am. Aladin was transported to the Lorain County Jail to be held until his arraignment in Oberlin Municpal Court.

In the Oberlin case, the entire incident was a shoplifting attempt that was foiled by the small business owner who called the cops on the BLACK PERPS and violent kids. The REAL basis for this problem is “Affirmative Action programs who promote blacks who very likely don't even belong in college.” AND half-wit black college presidents like Ambar and Gay.

What a dumb ass! She has proven herself to be a MASSIVE LIABILITY to Oberlin. That’s ok, they’re rolling in US Government student loan money as ‘government’ has now turned colleges into remedial High Schools to accommodate the unqualified; including destructive affirmative action “presidents”. 

She’s still fighting the verdict by the way. There’s no telling the legal costs to Oberlin because of this complete and total idiot. And think of the Gibson family who ran this bakery for decades and decades before this “affirmative action” madness.

It's ALL Obama: Ruin, Racism and Revenge From Obama to 'Fraudine' Gay

 

From Scott McKay at The American Spectator:

You’ve no doubt seen a lot of discussion of the fact that, despite her manifest lack of qualifications, Claudine Gay got the big job at Harvard because she checked all the boxes: black, female, dedicated heart and soul to the vileness of DEI [Doug here: in other words, she’s a total idiot].

And that’s all true. Claudine Gay got that job running Harvard on the strength of identity politics and identity politics alone. This is a woman who is now under suspicion for some 40 allegations of plagiarism. Far from being the “distinguished scholar” she was advertised as, Gay is essentially a serial academic rapist. And Harvard, for having installed her atop its hierarchy, deserves to be deposed from the ranks of elite, or even noteworthy, universities.

Harvard has been utterly corrupted and defiled. It’s now an institution without honor or quality. Its reputation has been exposed as a fraud.

That’s the effect Claudine Gay has already had on Harvard. The only potential fix for it is her immediate resignation, along with that of all of the people involved in hiring her.

And that won’t happen.

Why? Claudine Gay also checks another set of boxes, not coincidentally the ones set out in the very title of my new book: Racism, Revenge and Ruin: It’s All Obama.

Indeed, there is no more apt poster child for the America Obama left us than the pathetic Ms. Gay. In a time when not just race but adherence to noxious neo-Marxism govern hiring decisions everywhere from the campus to the “entertainment” world, (and, increasingly, Fortune 500 boardrooms), no one better exemplifies the ruinous legacy of our 44th president.

Claudine Gay

And ruinous by intention. This is only one facet of the “fundamental transformation” of America that Obama promised on the eve of his 2008 election. All the American people really wanted in electing Obama was to neutralize race as a persistent issue in politics and culture, thinking that taking a chance on a not-particularly-qualified politician as our president would prove we aren’t a racist country, and further, we’d be proving that we’d realized the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., that men and women would be judged in America by the content of their character and not the color of their skin.

What a vile bait-and-switch that was.

Barack Obama’s own academic qualifications were dubious. It’s still not particularly well-understood how he managed to secure admission to Columbia and Harvard with undistinguished grades or how he managed to serve as president of Harvard’s law review without authoring a single article in that publication.

He advanced based on the color of his skin and not his individual merit. Everyone understands that now. Obama then demonstrated at Harvard Law along with the bizarre racist professor Derrick Bell, the inventor of Critical Race Theory, when the latter demanded the university hire more black faculty simply because they were black. This after Obama was made president of the law review simply because he was black [Doug here: …and he never published a thing; what a f*cking slacker].

As Claudine Gay was made president of the university simply because she is black.

Harvard’s prestige now lies in ruins. And that isn’t enough for Obama. Last week, it’s said that he “privately lobbied” the Harvard Corporation, a secretive entity chaired by his former Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker, to back Gay amid the controversy.

And as damaging as the Gay scandal — which brewed up thanks to her inability to publicly condemn the pro-Hamas demonstrators making genocidal statements about Jews and Israel on her campus – has been, it’s nonetheless not a surprise that Obama would demand Pritzker and the rest of the Harvard governors hold the line.

Benjamin Weingarten, writing at the New York Post, got this right:

To fire her would be to acknowledge the evil hatred of the West at DEI’s core; admit DEI elevates politics over merit, given Gay has proven to be something of an academic fraud; and therefore delegitimize the movement as a whole given Gay’s and Harvard’s symbolic and substantive prominence in it.

The DEI project falling in the academy would be cataclysmic for the left given these institutions are pivotal for indoctrinating and credentialing the next generation of leftist leaders atop society’s commanding heights.

Elite schools are the left’s center of gravity, feeding power centers from Washington to Wall Street to Silicon Valley.

That Obama stepped in to support Gay suggests he believes it to be a political imperative of the highest order.

Presumably he thinks circling the wagons around the besieged Harvard president will cause this scandal, exposing the emperors of the Ivy league have no clothes, to blow over.

DEI, you must understand, is the constantly metastisizing tumor of the ugly racism and full-steam identitarianism that Barack Obama inflicted on America in a hundred ways (many of them described in Racism, Revenge and Ruin) through his own hires, executive actions, corrupt legal settlements, federal grants and other activities during his eight years in office. Now, with the Obama Redux administration of Joe Biden, it isn’t just in-your-face race-based pandering blowing apart our American meritocracy.

The DEI activism standing in for competence gives us people like Ketanji Brown Jackson, Karine Jean-Pierre, “Rachel” Levine and Sam Brinton. Nobody in America still equates the holding of a high-profile job with the possession of real qualifications for it — or the ability to do that job well.

Claudine Gay is a classic case of the institutional corruption Obama set loose in America. Her continued tenure at Harvard is a bright-line crucible for the survival of King’s dream.

It’s dying. So is Harvard. And so is the America we’ve pledged allegiance to. It’s Obama holding the murder weapon.

This Is What Happens When You Align Your Country with 'Amerika'

 Ukraine’s Maidan Square BEFORE the US Coup d’Etat in 2014:

Ukraine’s Maidan Square AFTER the US Coup d’Etat in 2014 ; thanks to Hillary, Obama, Victoria Nuland and fellow Deep State Neo-cons. 

THIS HAPPENS When You Ally Your Country with the US Government, US Neocons and other Fools. This is Maidan Square After the US Manufactured Coup d’Etat and “Revolution” in 2014 

Except now, the entire country of Ukraine is in complete shambles and upwards of 500,000 Ukrainians dead, 8 million displaced and a huge financial black hole for broke-ass Amerika.

From Strategic Culture:

Ten years on from the Maidan [manufactured] uprising in Kiev, the country of the Ukraine has descended into utter chaos, corruption, fascism, destruction and suffering. And yet the Kiev regime and its Western state supporters have the audacity to call the tragic, bloody morass “a decade of dignity”.

European Commission President Ursula Von Der Leyen declared this week: “Ten years of dignity. Ten years of pride. Ten years of striving for freedom. The cold November nights of Euromaidan changed Europe forever. The whole country took to the streets and spoke with one voice… The future for which Maidan fought has finally begun. Glory to Ukraine! Long live Europe!”

It is nauseating to hear such bare-faced lies and distortions. “The whole country took the streets”? It was a minority of Nazi ideologues bankrolled by Western powers. “Speaking with one voice”? The Maidan coup leaders murdered and burned opponents to death as in the Odessa pogrom on May 2, 2014, or in the deadly air strike on unsuspecting Lugansk civilians on June 2, 2014.

Bitterly amusing, though, Von Der Leyen inadvertently speaks the truth when she said the Maidan event “changed Europe forever”. It certainly did that, but in an opposite and awful way to her ridiculous, rosy view.

As this excellent documentary film makes clear, when the Western transAtlantic powers couldn’t get their way in dragooning Ukraine into joining the EU-NATO axis, the next step was to orchestrate a violent coup d’état in Kiev.

This week ten years ago, the elected president of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych rejected a vigorously promoted “association agreement” with the EU, preferring instead to orient the country towards closer economic integration with Russia and the Eurasian markets. That decision by the president triggered relatively minor protests in Kiev dubbed the EuroMaidan which began on November 21, 2013.

The rapid escalation of violent protests was obviously fomented and mobilized by external forces: the United States, European Union, the CIA and NATO. It was a repeat of the U.S.-sponsored Orange Revolution in Kiev in 2004 which had failed back then to fully decouple Ukraine from historically close relations with Russia.

A second time around, however, the color revolution process would be more deadly and determined. Three months after the initial street demonstrations and amid mounting organized deadly subversion, the coup was executed on February 20, 2014. President Yanukovych fled the country. A NeoNazi regime seized power and immediately transformed Ukraine into a bastion of anti-Russia hate. World War Two Nazi collaborators were venerated and made public heroes. Russian-speaking people were attacked and lynched. This is all documented, albeit censored out of history by the Western media.

American and European politicians midwifed the birth of a monster. The objective was always to create a fascist Frankenstein terrorist state that would do the Western imperialists’ dirty work of destabilizing Russia. American imperialist ideologues like Zbigniew Brzezinski had touted and written books about Ukraine as the bridgehead for destabilizing Russia. The roots of such intrigue can be traced back to the early CIA recruitment of Ukrainian Nazis in the aftermath of World War Two to harass the Soviet Union.

Joe Biden, who was then the vice president in the Obama administration (2008-16), was intimately responsible for the transmogrification of Ukraine. Along the way, Biden even got his drug-addict playboy son Hunter a lucrative job as an executive in the country’s largest gas company.

Von Der Leyen, who now so absurdly eulogizes Ukraine, was the German minister of Defense during the Maidan coup. Her family’s Nazi past was quite fitting for the role she played in pumping NATO weapons and training to build up Ukrainian paramilitaries for launching terror attacks on the Russian-speaking regions in the weeks, months and years after 2014.

CIA Director John Brennan was also fully involved in orchestrating what would become a civil war in Ukraine between the far-right Kiev regime forces and the ethnic Russian population of Donbass. Fortunately for the people of Crimea, they seceded in March 2014 and joined the Russian Federation. The Peninsula was spared the genocidal violence that the NATO-backed regime launched against the Donbass. It was that systematic aggression (largely ignored by the Western media) that finally propelled the Russian military intervention in February 2022.

The Maidan events 10 years ago are a case study of how the U.S. and its Western allies infiltrated and destroyed a country with their geopolitical objectives.

The culmination of the machinations resulted in a full-blown proxy war against Russia. NATO has failed in its criminally reckless plan to defeat nuclear power Russia. A sizable portion of formerly Ukrainian territory is now part of the Russian Federation. Some would argue it has rightfully reunited with Mother Russia owing to deep historical and cultural ties that preceded Ukrainian independence in 1991.

Meanwhile, up to 400,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed in nearly two years of conflict against superior Russian forces. The Kiev regime is floundering from corruption and internecine disputes as its Western patrons run out of taxpayer money to keep propping it up. Puppet president Vladimir Zelensky is despised by many Ukrainian citizens for his betrayal of peace promises and for selling off the country’s natural resources to Western corporations. The country is a vastly indebted shambles.

In reality, the Kiev regime is a NeoNazi rump reich that somehow manages to persist (so far anyway) through draconian repression against popular dissent or criticism. It has shut down opposition political parties and media, as well as persecuting the Orthodox Church as “agents of the Kremlin”. You could hardly make up an instance of a more vile regime.

And yet Western autocrats like Frau Von Der Leyen override any democratic principle to insist on lauding Ukraine as an exemplar of Western democracy which is entitled to EU and NATO membership.

Elsewhere, U.S. President Joe Biden and America’s European allies (elitist regimes one and all) have been exposed as morally bankrupt over their complicit support for Israel’s genocide in Gaza. It is a stunning exposure in a sudden compressed episode of horrific violence over the past six weeks.

Nonetheless, it is perfectly consistent with the West’s complicity in the genocidal conflict that it unleashed in Ukraine over a longer timeframe. Ultimately, the Western imperialist states are the evil root of both.

When Von Der Leyen proclaims that Ukraine’s decade of “dignity”, that is disaster, represents the “future of Europe”, it is something to behold with contempt. It is also deeply chilling. Her statement shows the despicable malevolence and fascism of such Western so-called leaders.

Ukraine and Gaza are testaments to the criminality of Western regimes masquerading as democracies. [Doug here: I’m not as disgusted with Israel’s war on Gaza for many reasons—I may post something explaining why. I already have if you’ve read my recents posts about Israel, the “Palestinians” and Islam]

Greenwald: The Grave Insanity of Colorado Court's Ruling

The Collapse of the Roman Empire

From Glenn Greenwald's Site on Locals: A transcript of his video posting

"The establishment effort to avoid facing Donald Trump before the electorate at the ballot box saw one of its gravest and most unprecedented escalations yet. Just as Trump rises to his highest point yet in polling for 2024 and as Biden sings to his worst level of disapproval yet, a state court in Colorado full of Democratic Party-appointed judges just decided yesterday by a 4 to 3 ruling that Trump is ineligible to appear on the Colorado Republican presidential primary ballot. In the view of these four judges, he is guilty of being an insurrectionist and thus ineligible to run for the presidency under the 14th Amendment. 

There are so many grave and glaring flaws in the legal reasoning of this decision, which we will show you, but one need not have a law degree to detect its most significant error: Donald Trump, despite being indicted in four separate jurisdictions, has never once been charged with, let alone convicted of the crime of insurrection. Both DOJ special prosecutor Jack Smith, as well as the Democratic Party prosecutor in Atlanta, charged Trump with multiple felonies relating to his conduct regarding the 2020 election. And yet both of them, despite being able to do so, opted not to charge Trump with engaging in an insurrection or even inciting an insurrection. But no matter these four state court judges, without any of the due process required for judging someone guilty of a crime, have decreed that he is nonetheless guilty of that crime, one with which he has never even been charged and thus never had the opportunity to claim all of the constitutional safeguards guaranteed to someone when charged with a crime. 

As this court itself recognized, this ruling will almost certainly now be heard by the U.S. Supreme Court. That's why they stayed the order until January 4 to give the court time to say whether it will rule on it or not. This is especially so since the same liberal advocacy groups that spearheaded this case in Colorado have done the same in at least 14 other states where they're trying to block the presidential frontrunner, meaning the person who more Americans say they want to be president next year, from even appearing on the ballot. Yet again, what we have here are the very same people, in politics and media, who endlessly glorify themselves as the Sole Guardians of American Democracy, relying on classically anti-democratic weapons to try to cling to political power. Beyond this ruling, Trump has been charged with felony counts in four other cases, the first one brought by a liberal prosecutor in Manhattan; the other state case brought by the Democratic Party machine prosecutor in Atlanta and then, the two federal cases brought by a special prosecutor under the auspices of the Biden Justice Department. 

Regardless of one's views on January 6 and Trump's conduct concerning it, it is beyond dispute now that the primary tactic of the Democratic Party and their media allies for winning in 2024 is not to convince voters to vote for them, but instead to imprison their chief political opponent and to prevent American citizens forcibly from voting for him. Whatever else this is, “saving democracy” most definitely has nothing to do with it. Quite the contrary: on top of the ongoing attempts to impose increasing levels of constraints on the expression of political speech, it is genuinely hard to imagine a more glaring and more dangerous full frontal assault on democratic values than what American liberals in the Democratic Party is doing to prevent Trump from running or even remaining free."

The End of Our Hyper-financialized Road to Ruin is Eventually Coming

From James Howard Kunstler at Clusterfuck Blog:

“Society lives and acts only in individuals…. Everyone carries a part of society on his shoulders; no one is relieved of his share of responsibility by others. And no one can find a safe way out for himself if society is sweeping towards destruction. ” —Ludwig von Mises

Remember, you are a sovereign individual and the blob in our nation’s capital city is an undifferentiated mass of feckless protoplasm. You contain a cosmos of ideas and aspirations. The blob is an agglomeration of sham and failure. The blob stands for itself, not for our country. You and I can stand for our country.

    Remember, also, that the economy of our country at its best was the sum of choices made by sovereign individuals, while the economy of the blob is a gelatinous buildup of unsound hypotheses having nothing to do with the pursuit of happiness. We sense this in the menacing rumors of a Federal Reserve digital currency, which entails the rehypothecation of our hopes and dreams into the blob’s waste-stream, turning everything we do — it can’t be put delicately — into shit.

      The Fed digital currency will be used to cover-up the failure of end-state financialization of the economy. Finance, you understand, used to be a module of the economy, with a particular role to play. The purpose of finance, formerly, was to marshal surplus wealth from prior productive activity to make new productive activity possible. Financialization, however, does not do that. Financialization was an effort to replace the economy of real production with a hologram of production. Financialization is a racket — and a racket, remember, is an effort to get something for nothing, that is, dishonestly. The blob feeds and thrives on dishonesty, its favorite food.

     Financialization seeks to replicate value not from wealth-producing activity but from things that only claim to represent wealth: stocks, bonds, currencies, and anything else that can pretend to hold value, clear up to notions and wishes. Its operations are based on “derivatives” because they aim to derive additional “wealth” from things that signify wealth, but which are not wealth itself. Each iteration of a derivative further abstracts its value from the real things originally signified, such as revenue-producing businesses, interest-bearing loans, leases, and contracts for delivery of commodities. Derivatives can be understood as false wealth, and when enough of them accumulate in a financialized economy, they will blow up the economy, spewing wreckage across an economic landscape.

     Many observers of that landscape await such a blow up at any time now. They say it can take the form of a stock market crash, a bond market failure, bank shut-downs, and disorders in money (currencies). All of that can impoverish and immiserate a lot of people. We are living through a corrosive early phase of that now, the overture of a big blow up itself. The effects are felt keenly through the middle classes, who struggle in futility to pay their bills, keep their cars running, and feed their children.

      The financialized economy was primed to blow up in September of 2019 when symptoms of severe distress materialized in an arcane corner of the system known as the reverse repo market where banks loan each other money on extremely short term, usually overnight, to provide so-called “liquidity” — meaning the appearance of solvency. The crisis expressed itself as a dangerously sharp rise in interest rates. The Fed came up with enough liquidity to paper over the crisis, and then, miraculous to relate, the Covid-19 “emergency”  a few months later gave them cover to “print” trillions of dollars and distribute the “money” rapidly into the on-the-ground economy where people bought the things of daily life.

      The result of that monetary mischief was today’s inflation. Inflation, of course, is one way of going broke. You have a lot of money that is increasingly worthless. The other way of going broke is deflation, where you have no money. In the aggregate of a deflation, nobody will have any money, so at least you’ll have company in the misery of being broke. My guess is that a grievous deflation is where the current situation is headed. Deflations are provoked when people and companies can’t meet their debt obligations — can’t “service” their loans (pay interest), or pay back contracted sums of borrowed money, or simply can’t pay their bills. Every loan that goes bad causes some money to disappear — poof! — and when a whole lot of that happens there is no money.

    The Federal Reserve digital currency is a kind of last resort way around that. It is a simple way for the system to pretend there is a lot of money around when there really isn’t any. It has the huge additional advantages, by way of computerized accounting, to allow the authorities to control what everybody spends their money on, especially the ability to block the purchase of this or that: a train ticket, gasoline, meat, if the authorities feel like it. It also enables the authorities to extract taxes, duties, and penalties at will, without any cooperation from the citizen. A Fed digital currency would be a giant step into the worst kind of exquisitely targeted tyranny. The excuse, of course, would be a “national emergency.”

      A digital currency would likely first be tested among the most indigent in society, those with little or no income. It already is, actually, in the debit cards currently issued to illegal border-jumpers. Their card accounts are refilled monthly, making this the equivalent of a guaranteed basic income. Next, this privilege will be extended to the lower economic ranks of American citizens, and so on upward, until the whole middle-class and even the higher levels are enlisted, and then the authorities will have the ability to push everyone around.

     That’s the hypothesis, anyway. I don’t believe it’s going to work. The authorities have underestimated the number of citizens who know what it means to be sovereign individuals. They will decline to be pushed around. They might even push back, start stomping on the blob’s tentacles as it reaches across the land. The citizens of one region or another of our country might go so far as to establish their own money, which would make them sovereign regions of sovereign individuals. That is going to be a problem that the blob and blobism cannot overcome.

It's Not Just Gaza: Islam is the Greatest Murder Machine in Human History

From Michael Konrad at American Thinker

When one thinks of mass murder, Hitler comes to mind. If not Hitler, then Tojo, Stalin, or Mao. Credit is given to the 20th-century totalitarians as the worst species of tyranny to have ever arisen. However, the alarming truth is that Islam has killed more than any of these, and may surpass all of them combined in numbers and cruelty.

The enormity of the slaughters of the "religion of peace" are so far beyond comprehension that even honest historians overlook the scale. When one looks beyond our myopic focus, Islam is the greatest killing machine in the history of mankind, bar none.

The Islamic conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. -- Will Durant, as quoted on Daniel Pipes site.

Conservative estimates place the number at 80 million dead Indians.

According to some calculations, the Indian (subcontinent) population decreased by 80 million between 1000 (conquest of Afghanistan) and 1525 (end of Delhi Sultanate). -- Koenrad Elst as quoted on Daniel Pipes site

80 Million?! The conquistadors' crimes pale into insignificance at that number. No wonder Hitler admired Islam as a fighting religion. He stood in awe of Islam, whose butchery even he did not surpass.

Over 110 Million Blacks were killed by Islam.

... a minumum of 28 Million African were enslaved in the Muslim Middle East.  Since, at least, 80 percent of those captured by Muslim slave traders were calculated to have died before reaching the slave market, it is believed that the death toll from 1400 years of Arab and Muslim slave raids into Africa could have been as high as 112 Millions.  When added to the number of those sold in the slave markets, the total number of African victims of the trans-Saharan and East African slave trade could be significantly higher than 140 Million people. -- John Allembillah Azumah, author of The Legacy of Arab-Islam in Africa: A Quest for Inter-religious Dialogue

Add just those two numbers alone together, and Islam has surpassed the victims of 20th-century totalitarianism. However, it does not end there. Add the millions who died at the hand of Muslims in the Sudan in our lifetime.

Much of Islamic slavery was sexual in nature, with a preference for women. Those men who were captured were castrated. The mulatto children of the women were often killed, which explains why Islam was not demographically shifted towards the black race, unlike slaves in the West, who bore children to breed a mestizo class. Add in those dead children; and we arrive at well over 200 million.

Remember that in the 7th century, North Africa was almost totally Christian. What happened to them? 

By the year 750, a hundred years after the conquest of Jerusalem, at least 50 percent of the world's Christians found themselves under Muslim hegemony… Today there is no indigenous Christianity in the region [of Northwest Africa], no communities of Christians whose history can be traced to antiquity.-- "Christianity Face to Face with Islam," CERC

What happened to those Christian millions? Some converted. The rest?  Lost to history.

We know that over 1 million Europeans were enslaved by Barbary Pirates. How many died is anybody's guess.

...for the 250 years between 1530 and 1780, the figure could easily have been as high as 1,250,000 -  BBC

In the Middle Ages…

…many slaves were passed through Armenia and were castrated there to fill the Muslim demand for eunuchs. -- Slavery in Early Medieval Europe.

The same practice ran through Islamic Spain. North Europeans captured from raids up to Iceland, or purchased, were butchered in the castratoriums of Iberia. Many died from the operations that ran for centuries.

The number of dead from the Muslim conquest of the Balkans and Southern Italy is unknown, but again the numbers add up, surely into the millions over the centuries. Don't forget the 1.5 million Armenian Christians killed by the Turks during WWI. We do know that over five centuries, vast numbers of Christian boys were kidnapped to become Islamic Janissary mercenaries for the Turks. Add those in, too.

Muslims prized blonde women for their harems; and so enslaved Slavic women were purchased in the bazaars of the Crimean Caliphate. In Muslim Spain, an annual tribute of 100 Visigothic [blonde] women was required from Spain's Cantabrian coast.

For decades, 100 virgins per year were required by the Muslim rulers of Spain from the conquered population.  The tribute was only stopped when the Spaniards began fighting back -- Jihad: Islam's 1,300 Year War Against Western Civilisation

Add in the death toll from the Reconquista and the numbers climb higher. 

Research has shown that the Dark Ages were not caused by the Goths, who eventually assimilated and Christianized:    

…the real destroyers of classical civilization were the Muslims. It was the Arab Invasions... which broke the unity of the Mediterranean world and turned the Middle Sea -- previously one of the world’s most important trading highways -- into a battleground. It was only after the appearance of Islam... that the cities of the West, which depended upon the Mediterranean trade for their survival, began to die. -- Islam Caused the Dark Ages

Add in those unknown millions who died as a consequence.

How many know the horrors of the conquest of Malaysia? The Buddhists of Thailand and Malaysia were slaughtered en masse.

When attacked and massacred by the Muslims, the Buddhists initially did not make any attempt to escape from their murderers. They accepted death with an air of fatalism and destiny. And hence they are not around today to tell their story. – History of Jihad.org

We may never know the numbers of dead.

After Muslims came to power in the early 15th century, animist hill peoples eventually disappeared due to their enslavement and ‘incorporation’ into the Muslim population of Malaya, Sumatra, Borneo, and Java via raids, tribute and purchase, especially of children. Java was the largest exporter of slaves around 1500. -- Islam Monitor

In the same manner, Islam arrived in the Philippines. Only the appearance of the Spanish stopped a total collapse, and confined Islam to the southern islands. 

The coming of the Spanish saved the Philippines from Islam, except for the Southern tip where the population had been converted to Islam.-- History of Jihad.org

Again, the number of dead is unknown; but add them to the total.

The animist Filipinos were eager to ally with the Spanish against Islam. In fact, much of Southeast Asia welcomed the Spanish and Portuguese as preferable to Islam. 

...from the 17th century successive Thai kings allied themselves with the seafaring Western powers – the Portuguese and the Dutch and succeeded in staving off the threat of Islam from the Muslim Malays and their Arab overlords.-- History of Jihad.org  

A few galleons and muskets were not enough to conquer Asia. Islam had made the Europeans initially appear as liberators; and to a certain extent they were. Who were the real imperialists?

Even today...

...Malaysian Jihadis are plotting to transform multi-ethnic Malaysia into an Islamic Caliphate, and fomenting trouble in Southern Thailand.-- History of Jihad.org

Add this all up. The African victims. The Indian victims. The European victims. Add in the Armenian genocide. Then add in the lesser known, but no doubt quite large number of victims of Eastern Asia. Add in the jihad committed by Muslims against China, which was invaded in 651 AD. Add in the Crimean Khanate predations on the Slavs, especially their women.

Though the numbers are not clear, what is obvious is that Islam is the greatest murder machine in history bar none, possibly exceeding 250 million dead. Possibly one-third to one-half or more of all those killed by war or slavery in history can be traced to Islam; and this is just a cursory examination.

Now consider the over 125 Million women today who have been genitally mutilated for Islamic honor's sake. In spite of what apologists tell you, the practice is almost totally confined to Islamic areas. 

New information from Iraqi Kurdistan raises the possibility that the problem is more prevalent in the Middle East than previously believed and that FGM is far more tied to religion than many Western academics and activists admit. – “Is Female Genital Mutilation an Islamic Problem?” ME Quarterly

Once thought concentrated in Africa, FGM has now been discovered to be common wherever Islam is found. 

There are indications that FGM might be a phenomenon of epidemic proportions in the Arab Middle East. Hosken, for instance, notes that traditionally all women in the Persian Gulf region were mutilated. Arab governments refuse to address the problem. -- "Is Female Genital Mutilation an Islamic Problem?" ME Quarterly

Remember that this has gone on for 1400 years; and was imposed on a population that had been formerly Christian or pagan.

FGM is practiced on large scale in Islamic Indonesia; and is increasing.

...far from scaling down, the problem of FGM in Indonesia has escalated sharply. The mass ceremonies in Bandung have grown bigger and more popular every year. -- Guardian

The horrified British author of that Guardian article is still deluded that Islam does not support FGM, when in fact it is now settled that FGM is a core Islamic practice. Islamic women have been brainwashed to support their own abuse.

Abu Sahlieh further cited Muhammad as saying, "Circumcision is a sunna (tradition) for the men and makruma (honorable deed) for the women."  -- “Is Female Genital Mutilation an Islamic Problem?” ME Quarterly

What other tyranny does this? Not even the Nazis mutilated their own women!

Unlike the 20th-century totalitarians whose killing fury consumed themselves, reducing their longevity, Islam paces itself. In the end, though slower, Islam has killed and tortured far more than any other creed, religious or secular. Unlike secular tyranny, Islam, by virtue of its polygamy and sexual predations, reproduces itself and  increases. 

Other tyrannies are furious infections, which burn hot, but are soon overcome. Islam is a slow terminal cancer, which metastasizes, and takes over. It never retreats. Its methods are more insidious, often imperceptible at first, driven by demographics. Like cancer, excision may be the only cure.

So whenever you read about this or that Israeli outrage -- and there may be truth to the complaint -- place the news in context. Look whom the Israelis are fighting against. Islam is like nothing else in history.

Armstrong: Heart Failure Among Pilots Up 1000% in 2022

From Armstrong Economics:

 

New data from the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) indicates a significant increase in heart issues among pilots, with heart failure spiking nearly 1,000% in 2022. [Doug here: The spikes are likely due to such ailments haveing been very rare and now are less rare, but still very alarming.]

Lieutenant Ted Macie, an active-duty officer with the U.S. Navy Medical Service Corps, raised concerns about the health risks associated with the COVID-19 shots, including heart-related ailments. The data, obtained from the Pentagon’s Defense Medical Epidemiology Database, shows drastic spikes in various diagnoses for serious medical issues, prompting questions about the potential impact of the COVID-19 vaccine on the health of service members.

In addition to serious cardiovascular issues, the Pentagon saw significant spikes in numerous ailments well beyond their five-year averages including hypertension (2,181%), neurological disorders (1,048%), multiple sclerosis (680%), Guillain-Barre syndrome (551%), breast cancer, (487%), female infertility (472%), pulmonary embolism (468%), migraines (452%), ovarian dysfunction (437%), testicular cancer (369%), and tachycardia (302%). Heart-related ailments have soared over the past 5 years as well including hypertension (36%), ischemic heart disease (69%), pulmonary heart disease (62%), heart failure (973%), cardiomyopathy (152%), and other non-specified heart diseases (63%).

The findings have reignited discussions about the safety and efficacy of the vaccine mandate for military personnel. A 1000% increase in heart failures among pilots in just one year is cause for major concern. Why must we continually force service members to take these vaccines when we know they are likely unsafe?

A Violent Minority Ruins the Reputation of Entire Groups: Islam Edition

 Islamic communities often have a very violent and deadly minority in many countries— which results in many people in the wider community to see them as“bad.” US Black ghettos have a similar problem. They scream “discrimination!,” demand more govt benefits, preferred treatment and/or reparations, but THEY caused their own problems. It’s sad in a way when 15, 20 to 30% of your group is ruining the reputations, lives and futures for the other 70+%. But this is happening nearly in MANY areas where Muslim groups live and in most or all of the US Black ghettos. It’s even known why this happens. It’s due to unequal genetic (and cultural) heritages leading to dramatically unequal cultural and intellectual attainment. In each case it becomes Clashes of Civilizations and Differences In Intelligence Cause Clashes of Civilizations.

I wrote a post about Islamic murder and violence in 2017 called Are Muslims Bad People? The short answer is YES. The more nuanced answer is that very often when Muslim communities come in contact with other groups, really most other groups, there tends to be violence, murder and bombings. [I’ve pasted-in the 2017 post “Are Muslims Bad? post below for reference. This post is really a follow-up to it.]

The Gaza attacks against innocent civilians in Israel is the best example of my point. For over 100 years, Arabs in the eastern Mediterranean have been trying hard to eradicate ANY and ALL Jews AND Christians in the Levant. They’ve basically succeeded in eradicating both groups—except Israel. Also see A Pandemic You Rarely Hear About: 360 Millon Christians Persecuted Worldwide. This de-Christianisation and attempts to eliminate Jews completely continues today in many areas of the Middle East, North and East Africa and many other areas.

Like most uncomfortable truths, this information is being hid from the public in the West. For a detailed history of when “Palestinian” Arabs negotiated at least 3 different peace deals with Israel in the past 70 years that included a ‘Palestinian’ homeland, (see my Debunking the Palestine Lie and The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and the Fuhrer.) Each time, just before signing an agreement, PLO or Fatah leaders not only walked away at the last minute, but instantly launched bloody, murderous intifadas (death marches) against Israel. It shows that they were “negotiating” in bad faith each time. Hate is a terrible thing.

Bombings, murders and violence have continued since the 1920s and more recently to the point where Israel was forced to erect concrete barriers with razor wires and checkpoints to convert Gaza into a large open-air “prison.” [Sadly, this might need to happen in Black ghetto inner cities in America. But America already has a HUGE prison system largely for them. Blacks have a plurality in US prisons even though they are only 14% of the population.]

Guess what? It worked for awhile. It stopped the bombings and murder until October 7th 2023 when murder and slaughter re-commenced for the umpteenth time. Now the world is “shocked” that Israel is basically intending to eliminate many/most of these “prisoners” after 1400+ Israeli kids, party-goers and nearby innocents were once again slaughtered by Muslims.

There’s no living with these people. And yes, I feel sorry for some of the innocents, but 30 to 70% of many ordinary Palestinian persons in Gaza are sympathetic to Hamas and their deadly aims. Jew hatred rules there.

Even then, I don’t want to see non-militants slaughtered. Jesus said “Do not fight the evil one.” and then said “turn the other cheek” if slapped/insulted. It’s because, when you fight evil, you tend to become evil yourself. It’s true. It’s now making Israel evil too.

This is not new. This has been going on for 1400 years—since the creation of Islam. For a more recent story of Arabs in the area near what is now Israel: see my post How Israel Emerged In the Collapsed Ottoman Empire and my post Palestinians-100+ Years Of Hatred and Rejectionism. Also Worldwide Islamic Jihad Casualties in 2023: 16,100 Dead/Injured So Far and Polls Routinely Show Arabs in 'Palestinian' Territories Are Most Supportive of Violence and Hamas.

Europe’s Muslim Experiment/Disaster

Massively ignorant cretins, charading as politicians in Europe, have been indiscrimanently importing large numbers of predominantly young Middle Eastern and N. African Muslim men with some women, for decades now into previously homogenous all-white cultures for so-called “diversity” or “enrichment.” These politicians are either evil or dumber than rocks. Worse, they NEVER LEARN and refuse to face facts.

The results are Muslim ghettos, populated with poorly educated and limited intellectual abilities, no host language skills, permanent and widespread unemployment and welfare, extremely limited cultural integration, widespread rapes, knife attacks, bombings, cultural war and/or actual war in France, Sweden, Belgium and also in Southern Philippines, Southern Thailand, Sudan, Yemen, Somalia, Myanmar, Indonesia (Aceh) and other Middle East “hotspots.” Diversity is Our Strength: If You Want Murder, Crime, Decay, Rape and Bombings, Part 2: France Is On Fire.

NOW IRELAND is on fire!

Also see my recent post Worldwide Islamic Jihad Casualties in 2023: 16,100 Dead/Injured So Far from October 2023. Click on any image below to open a slide show. The data is from thereligionofpeace.com:

Unlike US Blacks, Islamic leaders are basically supremacists who believe fervently that a woman’s place is to be barefoot and pregnant—with no other options. Even basic education is denied for many young Islamic girls; the same girls who clitorises are cut-off at birth to deny any sexual pleasure for them. We saw that after the American soldiers left Afghanistan. Young girls were immediately ousted from all levels of education.

But it’s Muslim violence and killings year after year that make these people “bad.” Just the past two or three days, there is news of Muslim violence: “One dead, two injured after man upset over Gaza war attacks tourists near Eiffel Tower with hammer, knife” and this about continued Islamic violence in the Philippines from Japan Times:

Philippine forces were on high alert on Sunday after a bomb killed four people and wounded several others during a Catholic Mass in a university gymnasium in the south of the country, an attack the authorities called Islamist terrorism.

Finally, take a look at What to Expect From Palestinians If We Bring Them Here from a Danish writer.

Are Muslims Bad People? Part 1 (A Re-Post from 9/2017 Link here)

When is a group's reputation deserved?  Is it unfair to generalize about a group of people due to the actions of a minority? Are Muslims bad people?   

Sadly, the evidence is that Muslim communities across the world are causing nothing but strife and murder wherever they are found. They don't seem to be able to get along with either themselves or anyone else. 

For example, even though Muslims are an extremely small portion of Thailand's population (<2%), there's been over 4500 murders of peaceful Buddhists by the Muslim minority in Southern Thailand since 2004 alone. And Thailand is a peaceful, prosperous and tolerant place No tourist wants to go there!  Eventually, you'll hear MSM complain about another "genocide" when Thai authorities finally drive these people out. How many thousands of dead bodies will it take before the Thai army loses their mind over this problem and they lash out at this group?

Backlash and possibly genocide against Muslims is occurring right now in Myanmar--Thailand's neighbor. This week alone, normally peaceful Myanmar Buddhists are chasing 100s of thousands of Rohingya Muslims out of their country due to clashes and violence with this small (<4%) minority. This violence and strife has been going on there for 100+ years. 

There has been a murderous Islamic insurgency in Mindanao in Southern Philippines for many decades. This week alone in the Philippines, some 24,000 Muslims are being displaced by Philippine military action against Jihadists in Mindanao.  Even Indonesia had a war against Aceh's Muslim fundamentalists until the 2004 tsunami wiped out about 300,000 of these people in Banda Aceh in Aceh State. Only then was there an peace accord.

Speaking of just this week, Muslim murderers have killed 273 people and injured 259 in 14 countries -- all in the name of their Allah and religion.  This from TheReligionOf Peace website.

The murderous ISIS has been running rampant in the Middle East and now N. Africa causing mayhem and murder there and now in Europe. Sorry Obama, ISIS see themselves as the standard-bearer of Islam whether you see it or not. Obama and Hillary funded and created ISIS by their efforts to depose Assad. That was real smart consider what happened after Hussein was deposed. It’s idiocy on top of idiocy.

Obama, a true idiot once said that 99.9% of Muslims are peace loving, but it’s not even remotely true—especially elsewhere in the world. Europe has seen some 35 major Islamic terrorist attacks in the past year alone despite Europe's well-meaning effort to provide refuge to Muslim Arabs fleeing the failed economies and cultures in the Middle East and North Africa.

These refugees will bring their failed ideas and ruin Europe. It's a clash of civilization that is entirely avoidable. Absurd, politically correct fools in Europe are responsible. Political correctness causes death!! The Left wants death and destruction and is therefore sympathetic to destructive and violent Muslims.

Muslims are the epicenter of religious violence across the world. Since 2001 alone, world-wide there have been about 250,000 Islam-inspired murders and another estimated 250,000 wounded from Jihadi attacks (a total which excludes war-related deaths). That equates to ~2 million deaths per century--NOT including wars! The entire history of Islam is full of violence and murder

Muslims are full of terrible and ignorant ideas that bring nothing but misery and death to themselves and those around them.  Most of Arab/Muslim regions in the Middle East and North Africa are now in a cultural and political collapse. This collapse is due to their failed Muslim/Arab culture, their beliefs, their bad ideas, their self-imposed poor education (emphasis on religious education) -- all of which is causing chronically failed economies and tyrannical leaders. "Islam" is nearly synonymous with failed countries and cultures. Shitholes.

One of their biggest problems with them is that there are often motivated and violent minorities within Muslim communities that believe in violence as a means of advancing their agenda or conflict resolution. And yes, their scripture, the Quran, has plenty of passages that justify "wiping out" infidels (anyone else) as a means to an end. Even today, middle east Muslims are actively wiping-out Christians in that region--continuing centuries of war against both Christianity and Judaism. Don't forget that nearly every Muslim country is dedicated to the destruction of Israel and all the Jews.
Hatred of Jews and even Christians is part of their religion and has been since it's inception since it's supported by their Qu'ran.  Remember that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem sat at the right hand of Hitler in WWII.  

And wherever there is Jew-hatred there is gay-hatred. ISIS has been throwing suspected gay people to their deaths off of tall buildings ignoring any kind of due process or anything else that might be called civilized. 

Another integral part of their ideology is their belief in "conquering" and dominating the world by creating an Islamic dominated Caliphate (of misery). I lived in Jakarta in 2007 and saw an entire football stadium full of "mainstream" Indonesians celebrating this belief. Islam is a supremacist (and bigoted) ideology.

And for every violent Jihadi attack, there are brothers, sisters, mothers or others that know what is about to happen, but they never inform authorities. And very rarely does anyone in this religion speak out forcefully against the violence caused by their own community.

Muslims are really today's modern day Nazi party.  And there were plenty of "nice" or "good" people in the Nazi party too, so don't kid yourself.

There is so much wrong with this group.  Muslims are full of bad ideas that cause poverty, unhappiness and violence in their communities.  Their inability or refusal to reform or change makes them bad people. They have been bad people for a VERY long time.

Armstrong: Irish Patriotism is now "Far Right Extremism"

From Martin Armstong at Armstrong Economics:

The Irish are no strangers to battling those occupying their lands. This time, the European Union and Irish government permitted a mass influx of migrants into the country. Then Ireland granted those migrants the right to vote in elections. Increased foreign nationals, misaligned traditions and morals, followed by the deaths of numerous citizens has led to upheaval in Ireland.

Link: https://twitter.com/TheNotoriousMMA/status/1727336195602927725

The people want the migrants to leave immediately and protese erupted across the country. Instead of listening to the will of the people, the government continued to provide these people with asylum and encouraged them to vote. The gardaí (police) are unable to intervene and the people are now at a breaking point.

Link: https://twitter.com/TheNotoriousMMA/status/1727866945087619143

One of Ireland’s most famous celebrities, MMA star Conor McGregor, is currently under police investigation for allegedly aiding in enticing riots. “Ireland, we are at war,” the fighter posted to X followed by a series of posts questioning the governments immigration laws. “Do not let any Irish property be took over unannounced, Evaporate said property. It’s a war.”

Elections across the West have been infiltrated by the migrant vote – a guaranteed vote for the party that brought them there. The people now see the truth and the government is declaring anyone who questions the validity of an election a “far-right extremist.”

Leo Varadkar, the taoiseach, said the rioters are simply a “lunatic, hooligan faction driven by far-right ideology.” Ireland’s Justice Minister Helen McEntee called the protesters “thugs” who are “using this appalling attack to sow division and wreak havoc in the city.” The media has deemed the race riots “far-right agitation” and will not acknowledge the truth. The people are fed up with their government leaders failing them.

Link: https://twitter.com/TheNotoriousMMA/status/1727800056835621033

These race riots are appearing across Europe. Spain, Italy, Germany, France, Sweden, the list continues. He who controls the media controls the narrative. These European race riots are not the result of far-right ideology. The masses are waking up to the destruction their government leaders have caused and now realize their own countries have been invaded, deliberately. Patriotism is growing for one’s own country and not a European collective identity. This migrant crisis is revealing the truth behind Brussels which only exists to make decisions for the collective of Europe on behalf of the globalist elite.

2066 Athlete Cardiac Arrests or Serious Issues, 1446 Dead, Since Covid Injections

66 cardiac deaths per year was usual; mainly due to congenital heart defects. But 416 athlete deaths in 2021, 791 in 2022 and 138 in 2023 (so far)

From Goodsciencing.com:

It is definitely not normal for so many mainly young athletes to suffer from cardiac arrests or to die while playing their sport, but this year it is happening. Many of these heart issues and deaths come shortly after they got a COVID vaccine. While it is possible this can happen to people who did not get a COVID vaccine, the sheer numbers clearly point to the only obvious cause.

Important Notes: The number of dead are included in the total number. There are also dozens of reports that are not included in the total number shown in the headline because they are not or may not be vaccine-related, in our judgement.

The so-called health professionals running the COVID vaccine programs around the world keep repeating that “the COVID vaccine is a normal vaccine and it is safe and effective.”

gary dempsey 20 years

Gary Dempsey, professional soccer player played 500 games over 20 years, with no cardiac arrests.

In response to their pronouncement, here is a non-exhaustive and continuously growing list of mainly young athletes who had major medical issues in 2021/2022 after receiving one or more COVID vaccines. Initially, many of these were not reported. We know that many people were told not to tell anyone about their adverse reactions and the media was not reporting them. They started happening and ramping up after the first COVID vaccinations. The mainstream media still are not reporting most, but sports news cannot ignore the fact that soccer players and other stars collapse in the middle of a game due to a sudden cardiac arrest. Many of those die – 69.4% as at 31st December 2022.

We also note that many posts in Facebook, Instagram, twitter, forums and news stories are being removed. So now we are receiving some messages saying there is no proof of the event or of vaccination status. That is partly because this information is being hidden.

More people are writing to tell us that in many cases, we didn’t mention a person’s vaccination status. There is a good reason for that. While everyone thought it was great marketing for them and a way of virtue-signalling, they bragged about their vaccination status. Now, none of the clubs want to reveal this information. None of their sponsors want to reveal it. The government doesn’t want it. Insurance companies aren’t asking for it. The players have been told not to reveal it. Most of the players’ relatives will not mention it. None of the media are asking this question. So what should we do? Stop this now? No, we will collect as much information as we can, while it is still available, because eventually, more information will come out, and we will be here to put it together.

Will it mean anything? We don’t know. What we do know is that there is a concerted world-wide effort to make this information go away, so that fact alone tells us it must be collected, investigated and saved so other researchers can look at it to see if there are any useful patterns. This may be one of the understatements of the century

We replaced about a dozen occurrences of the word “shot” with “injection” because translation into other languages is improved, on advice from a reader.

We really appreciate the athletes named in this list (or their families) who confirmed what happened to them so the truth can be known. They care about their fellow athletes, even if the clubs, their sponsors, media, politicians and so-called health professionals do not.

Contained in the list are many professional athletes and high level amateur athletes. It would not be sensible to try to report the death of every person on the planet, so we have selected a category of person who should be fit enough to lead a long and healthy life. This means that provided a person is reasonably fit, healthy and does some athletic activity, rather than an unfit “couch potato,” then they can be included in this list. Needless to say, these are only the persons reported to us by readers or that we discovered during research. Also note that almost all of these have been reported in the media. In some cases, we have a person’s own social media or reports from their family. For example, vocal pro-vaccination athlete Uche Nwaneri, the 38-year-old former Jacksonville Jaguars American Football player who said anti-vaxxers should be jailed – until he died suddenly.

There are many countries or states with large populations, that have almost no reports in our list. That probably means events are not being reported to us. The true death and injury numbers are likely to be very much higher than we list here.

Prior Year Data

The International Olympic Committee in Lausanne, Switzerland, studied documents from international data banks from 1966 to 2004. Those documents indicate 1,101 sudden deaths in athletes under 35 years of age, over 38 years, an average of 29 athletes per year, the sports with the highest incidence being soccer and basketball. Note the document says those sudden deaths were “predominantly caused by pre-existing congenital cardiac abnormalities.”

After the Lausanne report, all professional athletes are now screened for congenital abnormalities, so any comparison with previous years is not valid for those professionals, because people with congenital abnormalities have been screened out and cannot play. Many also have regular testing. So “something else” must be causing this sudden increase. (NIH Document) You can read the conclusions in this 2006 followup study. We leave the followups now to other researchers, hoping that this collection of data makes it easier for them to identify candidates for inclusion in the study.

A study by Maron on sudden death in US athletes, from 1980 to 2006 in thirty-eight sports identified 1,866 deaths of athletes with cardiac disease, over 26 years, with a prevalence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

2005 to 2006 averaged sixty-six (66) deaths per year, with 82% of those occurring during competition or training.

Thanks to investigator readers for discovering these reports, and this story in Spanish: Momento Deportivo.

In 2021 and 2022, cardiac disease was not mentioned at all, in any reports we found. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was only mentioned twice, and those two reports were listed in the “not vax related” list. “Enlarged heart” was only mentioned three times, but there was no indication this was a long-term or recent issue (possibly due to vaccine injury). We take this to mean that most of those with congenital heart conditions have already been screened out.

The above shows that in prior years, there were 66 deaths per year, but 97 were reported in the month of January 2022 alone, 416 in 2021, 791 in 2022 and 138 in 2023. None of these new deaths were reported to be due to congenital abnormalities, the primary cause found in previous years.
