Khan

'Revenge is a dish best served cold'  So said Khan Noonian Singh, quoting the Klingon.

Oddly, I wrestled with writing this brief exposition.  Sometimes I think an idea doesn't float, then I surprise myself with its life.

I'm not gonna waste space and retell the story completely.  Go seek it out.  But, Khan was an old foe of Captain Kirk from TOS episode Space Seed.  He returns to seek vengeance on his old enemy.

His revenge is driven by an insane perception that Kirk is responsible for his wife's death and the desolation of Khan's people. 

Khan was marooned on a planet where he and the others had a fair chance to survive and eventually thrive.  A nearby planet explodes and literally devastates the new home.  Though Khan and many of his group survive, he pins his misfortune on Kirk.  When presented with an opportunity, he goes after him.

After wreaking havoc, Khan is defeated.  This is preceded by Spock's death, saving the Enterprise and crew by realigning the engine.  Sacrifice, a mainstay of Star Trek, is pivotal here.

During the course of the movie, it's noted that Khan indeed is an accelerated, genetically enhanced human.  Spock says that he's quite intelligent but his pattern indicated two dimensional thinking.

There is the crux.  In the real world, many pride themselves that they are 'better' than others.  They may even possess a certain mental acuity.  Their pride limits them.  It comes before the fall.

As in chess, they think they have many moves predicted and will eventually win.  Fabian socialism comes to mind.  'Taint so McGee.  We who appreciate/live Freedom and breathe Liberty are willing to bit by bit not just take back what's stolen, we are proactive and expose tyranny relentlessly.

Three dimensional thinking is called for (even at the expense of dangling prepositions lol).  And I tell you that arrogance trips our opponents/enemies up every time.

Don't lose heart.  Sacrifice is inevitable.  But the prize is that priceless life of self determination.

And I could do a post on comparing Star Trek ll the Wrath of Khan and Star Trek Into Darkness.  Maybe I will or should.

Leave it to say, I'm old school -s-.

Dogs

Nothing's more iconic than a boy or girl with his/her dog.

It represents a bond of unconditional love and caring which is a two way street.

If you are a member of a religion which considers dogs unclean to the point of ritual cleansing if there is some kind of contact, don't get a job where you have to interact with them.

Hadith/tradition forbids contact for Islamists with dogs.  Ok.  But leave those of us with dogs alone.  Of course that is impossible with jihadists.  They insist on forcing their ways on everyone else, to the point of accepting Islam or dying.  There is the exception for unbelievers to pay 'tax' or tribute as second class citizens.

Further, photos are forbidden as are all graven images.  It's why there are such decorations as geometric patterns, calligraphy and arabesques predominate.  Ok.  Just don't force anyone else to adhere to this.  Impossible for the jihadists.

As we've seen not even images of Muhammad are allowed.  And in blood cult like behavior, all attention is upon this guy and their conception of a god.  Again, see above re focing all others to adhere.

Dogs are gifts of God for us.  Photos and drawing of dogs, family or anything else open us to the wonder of Gods works.

Having love for others and expressing that love is a lesson about how vast Creation truly is.

sure, if you prefer to exclude all else and concentrate go ahead.

But you show an evil hand even fallen when avoidance becomes an idol itself.

Nothing can destroy love.

Give me dogs and pics.

I promise not to force you to pet or look.

Mufti

It is not a combo name re Muffy and the German Mutti (mommy).

The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem is the Sunni Muslim cleric in charge of Jerusalem's holy places, including the Al Aqsa mosque.  The position has since 2006 been held by Muhammad Hussein.

Benjamin Netanyahu has come under fire, as it were, for pointing out an historical truth.  During the WW2 era, that GM, Mohammad Amin al-Husayni, was allied with the Nazis.  He encouraged Hitler etal to eliminate the Jews of Europe. 

Hitler had a policy of deportation.  The Mufti said it was not enough.  When asked what they should do, Mufti said, ''Burn them''.

The presstitutes (my new fave word of derision) of course have castigated him for telling the truth.  It's all part of cultural Marxism's rewriting of history.

Now, the current insane cleric says the Temple Mount ever housed the Jewish Temple.  Again, collectivism, and that's what Islam is, steals and usurps. 

''Perhaps Islamic hatred of all other religions stems from the reality that Islam so little resembles a real religion — one that promotes life and the good. So they must falsify and extinguish all other belief systems.''  Pamela Geller

Destabilization is one of the oldest tricks these mokes, including Marxists, Nazis, Islamists, wield to force the world into one horrible tyranny.

I'm not an Islamophobe.  I'm not afraid of them.  They must be stood up to.  Those who want a one world government are using them as a battering ram and fulcrum to utilize fear, just as the Mufti's old allies, National Socialists, did to try conquering the world.

I challenge Muslims of good conscience to denounce and depose the insane who are leading the world into a blood bath.  Hello.............

Bon Bons And Bond

Cultural Marxism has wended its way into the world of James Bond, like the slow moldering rot it is.

Some of our 'progressives' (regressives) suggest it's time for a gay or female Bond.  They never stop trying to rewrite the cultural matrix. 

I believe and it's been postulated elsewhere too, that they can't come up with their own character of value so they want to appropriate Bond.  Typical collectivist tactic.

The results are the same as with all the rest of their drivel.  It drives people apart, polarizes them.  They are easier to control that way.

It's also been suggested Bond could be black.  Parallels are often fallaciously drawn between race, orientation and gender.  They are not the same.  They are different categories blended together to both drive people apart and to destroy the infrastructure.

People should simply be left alone.  When they are, the similarities come to the surface and that defeats collectivism.

Now there are a great many folks who are talented and if they want a gay or female or black etc hero, invent one.  Don't steal.

Bond was conceived by Ian Fleming as a white/European heterosexual male.  Even Roger Moore agrees.

He's been quoted saying just that.  He wasn't being homophobic, misogynistic or racist.  Bond is what Bond is.  Moore is a hoplophobe and dislikes guns however.

Some people are afraid of things.  I say that this particular instance is collectivist knee jerking and broad brushing.  Personally, I am not afraid of a lot of things of which libs often accuse people.  That's a whole other topic for later.

Progressives have responded that Moore is the least Fleming like Bond.  It's just plain silly.  Sure, some things have swerved, but he filled the bill well enough.  And fave Bonds etc is certainly another subject.

Interestingly, at least two efforts were made to produce a dynamic female agent as an 'offspring' from Bond films.  Wei Lin in Tomorrow Never Dies was supposed to come back in Die Another Day.  Michelle Yeoh's schedule couldn't accommodate so she was replaced with the second female agent, Jinx.

Halle Berry's character was developed into a possible spin off, but it ultimately got shelved.

Hart to Hart is coming back to television as a gay couple.  Maybe that'll placate the gay mafia.  It's certainly a different dynamic than Bond.

I might be lambasted for the title of this post.  I'm just trying to be a bit catchy -s-.

It's ok for collectivists to be cute etc.  But I'm not them.

As David Codrea says 'for progressives, every day is opposite day'.

Things are sweet enough.  Or bitter, if you will.
