THE 1945 EVENT THAT THE ALLIES BURIED: American And British Handover Of Russians And Cossacks To The Red Army

  Via Nancy

 

 

“The NKVD or the Gestapo would have slain us with truncheons, the British did it with their word of honor.”

 

This is something that Britain would like buried in the ground. It is said that there were no good guys in the Second World War. The forced return of Cossacks to the Red Army by the British in 1945 only proves the point.

A bit of background. The Cossacks have always been fiercely independent. They had fought the Bolsheviks with the Whites in 1919. Many had emigrated to other countries. In 1941 when the Germans invaded Russia the Cossacks found a way to fight the Stalinist regime. They fought in the Wehrmacht against the Red Army.

As the war was ending, the Cossacks  found themselves cornered in Austria, in areas controlled by the British. They thought they would be safe. But their fate had been sealed at the Yalta conference.

What followed was something that the British would hardly be proud about. All the captured Cossacks were handed over to the Red Army. Women and children included. Knowing full well the sad fate that awaited the Cossacks.

 In the Bond film "Golden Eye" Bond says about this bit of history, "Not exactly our finest hour".

Equally reprehensible for the Allies was the handing over of those Russians who were anti-communists, anti-Stalin and had fought the Red Army with the Germans.

Yalta made the Allied democracies do things that has left an indelible blot on their history.

The Cossacks didn’t go willingly.

Missouri Senate OVERRIDES Governor’s Veto of Pro-Gun Bill, Expands Open Carry & Guns in Schools

Via Rd Conner

 

The Missouri legislature has thrown Democratic Governor Jay Nixon’s veto of a pro-gun bill back in his face.

Late yesterday, the legislature, who met in a special session, voted to override the governor’s veto of SB656.

The vote by the state senate was a fairly one sided 23-8, largely along party lines. We don’t have the House vote total yet, but it had to be at least a 2/3 majority.

Southerners Demand Political Equality in the Union

 

Like many Southerners, Whig Congressman Thomas L. Clingman of North Carolina was shocked at the Northern support for the post-Mexican War Wilmot Proviso and asserted that its passage would compel the South to reconsider its relationship with the Union.  Along with Robert Toombs of Georgia, Clingman was a vocal opponent of President James Polk, who many believed to have maneuvered the United States into war with Mexico.  Both would live to see “a bold man, as well as a bad one, in the White House.”

Southerners Demand Political Equality in the Union

“[During] the last and short session of the Twenty-ninth Congress . . . [Toombs] made only one speech, which the continued Whig opposition to the prosecution of the Mexican War was reflected. The immediate occasion was the proposed bill authorizing ten additional regiments of regular soldiers for the war.  Toombs opposed the bill for several reasons.

First, he preferred the use of volunteer to regular soldiers.  They elected their own officers, whereas the President appointed the officers to command regulars.  In Toombs’ mind the volunteers had acted in this capacity “with much greater judgment, skill, and patriotism” than Polk. 

The President throughout the war had played politics in appointments and would doubtless continue to do so. Furthermore, said Toombs, the “battles of the republic ought to be fought by its citizens soldiery” who were faithful to its institutions and interested in good government. He was not implying that the present administration was looking toward a Caesar-type dictatorship but the time might come when “you have a bold man, as well as a bad one, in the White House.”  

After his remarks on the “ten-regiment bill,” Toombs launched into a review of the war itself.  He again charged the President with provoking hostilities and with attempting to discourage freedom of debate in the House by charges of disloyalty toward those who questioned war policy.  Toombs desired peace, but he wanted no dismemberment of Mexico to accompany it.  We have territory enough, he said, and should improve what we have. 

Although as a unionist he deplored the agitation engendered by the principle of the Wilmot Proviso, he warned that as a Southerner he would not stand idly by and see his section shut out of any acquired territory [from the Mexican cession].  

He stood firmly on the right [of Southerners] “wherever the American flag waved over American soil to go with their flocks and their herds, their maid servants and their men servants.” Southerners, “would be degraded, and unworthy of the name of American freemen, could they consent to remain, for a day or an hour, in a Union where they must stand on ground of inferiority, and be denied the rights and privileges which were extended to all others.”  Almost fourteen years later Toombs was to say virtually the same thing in the Senate and then help lead his State out of the Union.”

Don’t Give the Masters of the Universe Their Amnesty

Via Jeffery

Senator Jeff Sessions (R., Ala.), the ranking member of the Senate Budget Committee, delivered a speech on the Senate floor Wednesday evening about Senate Democrats’ refusal to support legislation to block the president’s proposed executive actions on immigration policy, and the interests supporting amnesty. Following is an adapted version of his remarks.

Earlier this week I spoke about the president’s promise that he would issue an executive amnesty to 5 or 6 million people. The planned amnesty would include work permits, photo IDs, and Social Security numbers for millions of people who illegally entered the U.S., illegally overstayed their visas, or defrauded U.S. immigration authorities.

The Senate Democratic conference has supported and enabled the president’s unlawful actions and blocked every effort to stop them. Not even one of our Democratic colleagues has backed the House legislation that would stop this planned executive amnesty or demanded that Senator Reid bring it up for a vote. Every Senate Democrat is therefore the president’s partner in his planned lawless acts.

 Tonight I would like to talk about the influence of special interests on our nation’s immigration system. How did we get to the point where elected officials, activist groups, the ACLU, and global CEOs are openly working to deny American workers the immigration protections to which they are legally entitled? How did we get to the point where the Democratic party is prepared to nullify and wipe away the immigration laws of the United States of America?

Just yesterday Majority Leader Reid wrote in a tweet something that was shocking. He said: “Since House Republicans have failed to act on immigration, I know the President will. When he does, I hope he goes Real Big.”

Let this sink in for a moment. The majority leader of the Senate is bragging that he knows the president will circumvent Congress to issue executive amnesty to millions, and he is encouraging the president to ensure this amnesty includes as many people as possible. And the White House has acknowledged that 5 to 6 million is the number they are looking at.

Has one Senate Democrat stepped forward to reject Mr. Reid’s statement?

Parents Outraged Over Hitler, George W. Bush Venn Diagram Assignment

 

A D.C. schoolteacher will apologize after assigning students homework that prompted them to compare Adolf Hitler and former President George W. Bush using a Venn diagram.

A parent of one of the sixth-grade students told NBC Washington that the assignment presented the teacher's opinions as fact, which is unethical. Others said it was insensitive to the millions of Jews murdered by Nazis during the Holocaust.

"I think trying to compare Adolf Hitler to an America president is just not right," one parent told the Washington Times. "I didn’t agree with Mr. Bush or his policies, but that was over the line."

ISIS Army Parades in 43 New Toyota Hilux Trucks – Donated By US Taxpayers

Via Jonathan

Since July, the Obama-backed Free Syrian Army, Al Nusra Front, and ISIS have paired together in order to fight the Syrian Assad regime.

According to one Free Syrian Army commander, the combining of forces with ISIS was needed in order to achieve “the greater good.”

Since around that time ISIS has paraded around the Caliphate in their brand new Toyota Hilux trucks.

Paid for by US taxpayers.

What a coincidence. ISIS (IS) driving brand new Toyota Hilux trucks. Thanks to the #US. http://t.co/AIlfHaTPrV pic.twitter.com/8nGLZ9yKE2

Prepare to shoot a terrorist: Ted Nugent exhorts readers to get ready for ISIS in the homeland

 

 Mad Minute Time

I hate to be the obnoxious wake-up call for all the comfortably numb sports fans out there, but the threat of an Ebola epidemic, the hoax of global warming nor the hacked nude photos of skinny celebrities can hold a candle to the self-inflicted curse of apathy infecting a huge swath of we the sheeple grazing mindlessly throughout America.

A little beheading here, a little beheading there; what, me worry? “Don’t be so paranoid” say all the dedicated shoppers. We got pizza, we got beer, and the game is about to start. Pre-9/11 was so pleasant. Why disrupt our little world of make-believe and malfunctioning misprioritization?

Comfortably numb is so dark side of the moon, don’t you know.

Why can’t we all just get along?

Once Again Obama Shows That He Is Clueless About What Is Going On In The Middle East

Via Jonathan

 

Unfortunately, Obama may well be doing this intentionally.

Why would Barack Obama want to give hundreds of millions of dollars of weapons to groups inside Syria that are selling weapons to ISIS and regularly fighting alongside them?  Is he really that clueless about what is going on in the Middle East?  The FSA and other groups of "moderate" fighters inside Syria do not consider ISIS to be an enemy.  Rather, they consider ISIS to be an important ally in the struggle to overthrow the Syrian government. 

In fact, many "moderate" units have actually joined ISIS in recent months.  If Obama gives more weapons to the "moderate" fighters in Syria, it is inevitable that a lot of them will end up in the hands of ISIS.  In a previous article, I already discussed how ISIS is talking over vast stretches of Syria and Iraq using mostly American weapons.  If the Obama administration goes ahead with this plan to arm "moderates" in Syria, it is just going to make ISIS even stronger.
