Church and State

What’s happening in this video?

This is from Chernovetsk province (near the Romanian border), Babin village.

Within the last two weeks.

Police are raiding the local Ukrainian Orthodox Church…..

During a Sunday service…..

To remove the priest from the premises…..

So as to allow for the arrival of another priest…..

From the state-approved, breakaway “Orthodox Church of Ukraine“…..

…..(I know, this sounds like the end scene from Monty Python’s Life of Brian)…..

…..which was created at the initiative…..

…..of former president Poroshenko…..

…..and which denies any historical or religious ties with Russia.

The legitimate priest had earlier refused…..

…..to hand the place over.

So, of course, the provincial administration…..

…..sent in the police.

On a Sunday.

This scene is being repeated, all over the Ukraine.

(And the state faction claims, on Wikipedia, to represent 78% of all Orthodox Ukrainians, LOL. Doesn’t look that way, from all the videos.)

The “canonical” (true) church…..

By far the Ukraine’s largest religious sect…..

With an unbroken tradition dating to 989 AD…..

And which (barely) survived the USSR…..

Is being deprived of property on a DAILY basis.

The state faction is literally muscling in everywhere now.

On spurious legal grounds…..

But of course, on “firm political footing.” 

Congregations which have NOT already made the switch…..

…..in recent years…..

…..(and, most have not)…..

…..are generally NOT following…..

…..the new priests and hierarchy “granted unto” them.

HOWEVER…..

The next logical step…..

…..(once all property is seized)…..

Would be to stamp out religious group meetings/services…..

…..outside of state faction auspices. 

China-style.

Of course, if you’ve read St. Paul and his friends…..

…..(I’m referring to something called the New Testament, which is like “The Fisherman’s Bible” or “The Mechanic’s Bible”, but for Christians. It MIGHT still be available on Amazon)…..

The “community” is NOT dependent…..

…..on particular BUILDINGS.

So, the true church could meet at peoples’ homes.

But, who knows?

“They” could institute…..

…..a licensing requirement for priests…..

…..and deny licenses to any but the state faction.

We’ll see.

In this context, I’d just like to mention…..

…..that GLOBOHOMO will be destroyed.

With a good deal of collateral damage. 

I’m just concerned…..

Mitch McConnell MAY not live to see it.

But I pray he does.

Fortunately…..

I’m sure America’s favorite “angry closet homo“…..

Lindsay Graham…..

Will still be with us.

What the MSM Won’t Tell You About Israel

Or, “The Tel Aviv Ghetto Uprising“

(Up front and straight up, I don’t care if you think Israel is an illegitimate colonial entity blah blah blah. So is England, just ask the Romano-Britons. This here is about parallels between the U.S. and Israel, and, about how the Jews are, finally, failing to make it work. If you don’t like Israel, you SHOULD be able to find something here to enjoy. If not, if you’re that far gone, fuck off.)

What’s happening now in Israel…..

Is the result of decades of Lebanonization…..

Which has, finally…..

…..come to a head.

Even setting aside the Arab population…..

…..(which remains largely marginal)…..

The Israeli “system“…..

…..does NOT reflect…..

…..the country’s present sectarian-demographic reality.

Let’s start with some simpler things.

Same as the U.S. Supreme Court…..

Israel’s Supreme Court…..

…..has usurped a “judicial review” function.

HOWEVER, its U.S. counterpart…..

…..in addition to interpreting “purely” case law…..

…..on contracts and other matters…..

…..supposedly, rules on the constitutionality…..

…..of legislation and state actions.

Keep in mind, Israel has no true constitution.

So, Israel’s court often judges…..

…..on a mere standard of “reasonableness.”

LOL.

(As you know, “it’s all political” anyway, in the USA or Israel or anywhere. But at least, the USA has that fig leaf of a “constitution.”)

But, it gets worse.

Israel’s Supreme Court…..

…..appoints EVERY OTHER judge…..

…..in the country.

And, who appoints…..

…..members of the Supreme Court?

Well, it’s a “committee“…..

Involving three judges…..

…..from the Court itself (LOL)…..

Two lawyers from the Israel Bar Association…..

…..(can you say, “conflict of interest”?)…..

Two members of parliament…..

That is, one from the ruling coalition…..

…..and one from the opposition.

And, two cabinet ministers.

Now, seeing as Israel’s judges and top lawyers…..

…..are almost 100%…..

…..from the “secular left” tribe of Israeli politics…..

That leaves a ruling “religious/traditional right” coalition…..

With just THREE representatives…..

…..on a NINE-member panel…..

…..to fill any Supreme Court vacancy.

The present coalition’s intent…..

…..is to populate this committee…..

…..with more of its own politicians…..

…..while taking the judges and lawyers…..

…..from five to four.

Now, here’s where we get to Lebanonization.

The “system” worked fine…..

…..when the “secular left“…..

…..(that is, pre-1950 European atheist/agnostic immigrants, and their descendants)…..

…..was the cultural AND numerical “mainstream“…..

…..of Israeli Jewish society…..

But now…..

…..due to at least 40 years of much higher birthrates…..

…..among the more traditional…..

…..not to mention, the ultra-Orthodox…..

Also given, the more “conservative” (religious or not)…..

…..and “nationalist” outlook…..

…..of most immigrants…..

…..(to include, “the Russians“)…..

The “secular left“…..

…..is just another tribe.

UNFORTUNATELY…..

It’s a tribe that controls EVERYTHING.

Media, law, corporations, academia.

Even, to a large extent, the military.

Everything.

They’re some kind of inbred.

They tend to hire and promote their own.

It’s not just Israel’s “eastern” (Moroccan, Iraqi, etc.) Jews…..

…..who are permanently on the outs.

The million that came from the USSR, or former USSR…..

…..starting in 1989…..

…..and hundreds of thousands of their “non-Jewish” immigrant spouses or children (if not from a Jewish mother)…..

…..are INVISIBLE.

Aside from one, fairly small political party…..

…..for “Russians“…..

These people have NO visible role or impact, anywhere.

Or at least, anywhere desirable.

Can anyone say, “systemic racism“?

LOLOLOLOLOL.

(And if it’s this bad for millions of Jews, how do you think Israel’s ARAB citizens feel?)

In fact, the Likud party…..

Was formed in the 1970s…..

…..to contest this “hegemony“, as they call it…..

Clearly, with limited success.

Now, the problem…..

…..for the “secular left” tribe…..

Is they CANNOT win elections…..

…..and form stable governments.

There has been NO truly “secular left“-led government…..

…..in Israel…..

…..since 2001.

There was a right-secular-Arab freakshow coalition…..

…..in 2021-2022…..

…..(merely an interregnum between Netanyahu administrations)…..

And, prior to that…..

The left went into coalition…..

…..with a Likud breakaway faction…..

…..in 2006 or so.

And that coalition was weak, inexperienced…..

And Sheik Nasrallah called them out on it.

And the outcome of that…..

…..(the 2006 Lebanon War)…..

…..was a national disgrace.

Other than that…..

…..Likud (mostly, under Netanyahu)…..

…..has run the country since 2001…..

…..and moreover…..

…..is one of ONLY A FEW parties…..

…..within Israel’s multiparty system…..

…..to have EXISTED over that entire span.

In fact…..

EVERY Israeli Jewish political party…..

That existed in 2001…..

…..and still exists, today…..

…..is within the conservative/traditional, nationalist, and/or religious spectrum.

On the other hand…..

The “secular left” has been nothing but churn, upstart posers…..

A bunch of generals who retire and form some party that lasts two years…..

And one ex-TV star, who’s running his second party in 13 years…..

…..and overall chaos.

The Israeli “left” simply can’t get elected.

Even the 2021-2022 coalition…..

…..that briefly replaced Netanyahu…..

Was a bizarre, unstable…..

…..largely center-right to right coalition…..

With one of its co-leaders…..

…..being a traitorous protege of Netanyahu.

It was obviously doomed to failure…..

…..as it was a mishmash…..

…..of small to medium sized parties…..

…..(most of the medium ones, being completely new)…..

…..lacking an ANCHOR.

The ONLY anchor…..

…..and available accretion core…..

…..in today’s Israeli politics…..

…..is the largest party, Likud.

If Likud temporarily dips down…..

…..to number two in size…..

It’s only because…..

…..some faction broke away from Likud.

In which case, Likud comes back…..

…..as it did in 2009.

HOWEVER…..

As in the USA…..

The secular left…..

Still has the courts!

You know, like…..

“Whatever happens, we have got… the Maxim Gun, and they have not!”

So…..

Likud finally decided…..

To take that away.

To bring the judicial will…..

…..in line with the popular will.

(However narrow that majority may be… and it’s not even yet a majority if the Arabs actually vote, which they mostly don’t.)

In addition to changing the composition…..

…..of the selection panel…..

Likud also proposed…..

…..to allow a bare majority of parliament…..

To overrule Supreme Court decisions.

HOWEVER, it turns out…..

That last condition…..

Was a hardball negotiating tactic…..

Which was intended to be dropped.

Somehow, it wasn’t dropped.

Perhaps, because there were no proper talks.

The whole initiative…..

…..was CLEARLY mismanaged.

But, that doesn’t mean…..

…..that “extremists aim to destroy Israel’s democracy.”

It simply means…..

They aim to disrupt…..

The concept of democracy…..

As it exists in the heads…..

Of some people who concentrate…..

…..in the Tel Aviv metro area.

You know, THEIR democracy.

As in the USA…..

With the anti-Trump people…..

Who saw themselves as rebels…..

…..resisting a dictator…..

…..and who thought they were victimized…..

…..while swallowing…..

…..EVERY establishment and “deepstate” cue, narrative, and manipulation.

Well…..

What’s new?

Now, the size of anti-government protests…..

…..in Tel Aviv, on Saturday night…..

…..was INSANE.

Up to 200,000 people.

Even Paris, France seldom sees those numbers.

And, some spots…..

…..got UNUSUALLY rowdy…..

…..for Tel Aviv.

On top of that…..

As announced, in some cases…..

…..through public, group-signed letters…..

Up to several thousand Israeli reservists…..

Many from elite units…..

Have refused, or threatened to refuse…..

…..to report for duty.

Also, some dumbass retired general…..

…..started talking about “civil war.”

It’s clear, the secular left is rising up.

They are now OPENLY talking like…..

“We run the superstar IT industry, we pay most of the taxes, we’re still key in the elite units, we can’t be disrespected, and we’re not sure if we want to live in the same country as these hicks.”

In short…..

They’re standing up for their “check“…..

…..on pure democracy.

That check being…..

The last political card they have.

Again, their parties CAN’T get elected…..

…..and form a stable government.

But, these folks CAN protest…..

And, some can leave Israel altogether.

What’s clear, is…..

There WILL be a new order…..

And, they’ll HAVE to get used to it…..

Or, leave, if they can.

Or, they could try a military coup…..

But that would only prolong the inevitable.

Speaking of inevitable…..

Given my largely Jewish ancestry…..

It was inevitable that I’d take this opportunity…..

To ask for your money…..

To make this enormously time-consuming blog…..

DeSantis Flames Out

I’m not voting in 2024.

Voting in Federal elections is pointless. 

Still, it’s nice to see DeSantis flame out. 

DeSantis’ “pending” candidacy…..

…..was ENTIRELY predicated…..

…..on Trump flaming out with his Trumpers, FIRST.

Now that it’s CLEAR…..

The Trumpers have forgiven their idol…..

…..for EVERYTHING…..

…..(abandoning the 1/6 protestors, listening to Fauci, still claiming to this day that the vakkseenz are great, and, in general, the time, money, and/or mental energy wasted on a thick-skulled egomaniac who just doesn’t learn)…..

DeSantis is DONE…..

Before he even started.

Put this in the bank:

The dude’s NOT making it to the primaries.

He’ll probably duck out in a few months.

At which point…..

He might even claim…..

He never intended to run, LOL.

Sorry, RINO’s.

You’re stuck with Trump!

But…..

Just for fun…..

Let’s “review” DeSantis…..

…..before he crashes and disintegrates: 

(1) He’s NOT a good looking guy… and no “age excuse” for it.  Looks like a dorky, bloated frog. Needs to lose weight.  He’s not one of those, who wears extra pounds well.  (I’m no better, but I’m not running for anything.) 

(2) He sounds like a nerdy “college Republican” (a.k.a. a whiny little bitch) when he talks.  Worse even than Paul Ryan. Dude has ZERO charisma, no matter how many human props he brings on stage.  He’s a total stiff and lump.  Does anyone think he could compete on a debate stage with a potential, surprise rebel Dem candidate like Kyrsten Sinema or Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson? Because it won’t be Brandon.

(3) He’s fully beholden to Bush-ite establishment donor money.  But, that doesn’t cut it against the Dem machine.  You need mass appeal.  No true Trumper would EVER give this guy $200 or even $20… even IF (hypothetically) they ended up voting for him.

(4) Like Bush W. in the late 90’s, he has no ideas for the national stage.  He’d get to DC (never happen) and be a sock puppet.  And, see above.  He can’t go against his money.  All he can be is “anti-woke”, because the money people DON’T CARE about that. Can you imagine DeSantis ever saying, “I will reign in the deepstate”, or “I will clean up the FBI”? LOL. He hasn’t said it, he won’t say it. He’d lose half his billionaires INSTANTLY, because they “don’t want any trouble.” On the issues, he’s a NOTHING. He’s a one-trick, anti-woke pony. He will NEVER motivate “red-blooded” Republicans, who are “long past” voting for standard politicians.

(5) He has no solid electoral history of his own. Baaaarely won in 2018.  Only won big in 2022, thanks to “the Trump effect” having shifted the Hispanic vote in Florida by (something like) 25 points. That’s a NATIONAL phenomenon, in evidence in Texas and other states, even northern Virginia in 2021.

On a funny note…..

My same very good friend…..

…..who told me in early April 2022…..

…..to wait, just wait a few months…..

…..for “evidence” of Russian sexual crimes near Kiev…..

…..to come out…..

…..and for the ICC or whatever…..

…..to start prosecutions over it…..

…..(I’m still waiting!!!)…..

…..is now CONVINCED.….

…..that DeSantis will pull ahead…..

…..in the New Hampshire primary…..

…..or the Iowa caucus.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!

That’s what, a year away?

A year from now…..

No one will remember DeSantis.

What else can I say? Some folks prefer FANTASY.

Just stick with the Dreizin Report.

Dreizin Takes Some Ukraine Victory Laps

An astute reader pointed out…..

…..that in mid-February…..

…..I’d mentioned the possibility…..

…..of Russia basing tactical nuclear weapons…..

…..in Belarus.

Specifically, to ward off the threat…..

…..and the mere THOUGHT…..

…..of a Polish incursion…..

…..of even just a few hundred meters.

(Like, in case Poland decides to make a “fuck you” point about its power. This scenario is NOT farfetched. Poland’s intelligence service has been the MAIN player in the Belarus regime change effort since 2020.)

Well, it’s happened.

The Belarussian border is now secure.

No Polish army commander…..

…..wants to go into Belarus…..

…..and get nuked.

(For those who don’t know, a tactical nuke can have a “yield” low enough to decommission an entire invading infantry platoon in proper tactical spacing, just a few hundred meters inside Belarus, while only making the leaves rustle inside Poland, with no radioactive contamination beyond that which would dissipate with the wind and rain, and not even be measurable within a couple of weeks. A few bombs like that… and there goes the entire Polish invasion.)

Folks, this time…..

I won’t name names…..

…..(and there’s much more than just one name)…..

But it’s pretty damn easy…..

To bring your attention…..

To something like…..

The chances of a Ukrainian invasion of Transnistria…..

When it’s all over the news, already!!!

But…..

What I do…..

…..is talk about stuff…..

…..that’s NOT in the news yet.

And, then, some weeks…..

…..or a month or three later…..

…..it is.

Here’s another:

This is from a summary…..

…..of a top-level, expert panel discussion…..

…..(all participants left anonymous, so they can say what they think)…..

…..hosted recently by London’s Chatham House thinktank…..

…..(a.k.a. The Royal Institute of International Affairs.)

Look at that last line.

“Critical parts of the civilian economy will collapse as manpower is shifted to the military.”

Now, I did NOT make this specific point.

In fact, when I wrote about this issue…..

Last November and December…..

I’d ASSUMED those “critical parts“…..

…..(such as, the railroads, utilities, and big agribusiness)…..

…..would NOT be cannibalized for men…..

…..as they’re simply too critical.

(And, “the jury is still out” on this.)

NONETHELESS…..

I was the FIRST person…..

…..that I know of…..

…..in the English language…..

…..to bring up the relationship…..

…..between the Ukraine’s limited manpower…..

…..and it’s economy.

And…..

I did that MONTHS before ANYONE else.

So what…..

…..if I dump on…..

…..your YouTube-ing (or blogging) “alt-idol“…..

…..and it hurts your groupie feelings?

Just wipe those tears…..

…..and suffer through it!!!

It’s a SMALL price to pay…..

For knowing tomorrow’s truth, today.

Separately…..

Focusing again on the above screenshot…..

You can see, the Ukraine mood…..

…..among truly informed, seasoned professionals…..

…..in the West…..

Has turned APOCALYPTIC.

(I’ve not given you even one-quarter of the apocalypse laid out in this Chatham House write-up. Just no time.)

Folks, let me remind you…..

That the Ukraine’s one major battle victory…..

In east Kharkov in September 2022…..

Was made possible…..

By its roughly TEN-TO-ONE numerical advantage…..

…..(and Russia’s total lack of artillery or heavy weapons)…..

…..along the initial axis of advance.

(In and around Balaklea.)

“They” all know…..

…..that was a freak event…..

…..arising from Russian political issues…..

…..(a CHOICE not to mobilize manpower, until there was NO OTHER CHOICE)…..

…..and the military’s reluctance…..

…..to challenge Putin on that.

Today, for Russia…..

Manpower is no issue.

Today…..

“They” are DESPONDENT…..

Looking for where else to attack…..

That is, another sector of the front…..

…..but finding nothing appealing.

And, now, finally…..

The “Arsenal of Russocracy” is pumping out…..

…..precision munitions of all types…..

…..(e.g., JDAM-style bomb guidance kits, laser-guided mortar shells, etc)…..

…..which Russia barely used…..

…..and barely even HAD…..

…..a year ago…..

And, the U.S. Hegemonic Bloc’s arms industries…..

…..(which are all about profit, NOT national survival)…..

…..CANNOT KEEP UP.

For at least another nine months…..

…..the bloc can only draw down what it has.

Folks…..

“They” now ACKNOWLEDGE…..

…..how this will end.

But as with the vakkseenz…..

They can’t admit error, can’t stop the train.

As for you…..

You are free to admit your error…..

…..if you haven’t “liked” my tweets lately.

Or if you haven’t followed my Twitter, at all.

Please do so now.

Sadly, the energy has dipped again.

I need everyone to please scroll down…..

…..and “like” EVERYTHING.

If you can’t afford Twitter…..

I understand.

Not everyone has the resources.

In that case, no problem…..

You can just give me some money.

(Again, NOT if you’re barely getting by, eating spaghetti with ketchup for dinner. I don’t need bad karma. I don’t want to waste time, reading any more excuses from you wonderful poor people out there. Give only if you can afford it.)

Varyant X

For sure, we will see a much worse pann-de-mmyk…..

…..(kovid, bird flu, both, or something else)…..

…..within the near enough future.

The mRNA vakksed-and-boossted will not do well at all.

It will bring on extreme inflation…..

…..and radically change the U.S. political landscape…..

…..throwing everything upside-down.

We’ll see substantial decentralization…..

…..as “red” states with lower vakks rates…..

…..pull far ahead and assert themselves.

We’ll also see a triumph of traditional values…..

…..to include, the near-disappearance…..

…..of the woke/LGBTQ+++++ cult.

(Nothing against “those people.” I’m talking about THE CULT… which is mostly not even run by those people.)

Lastly, we’ll see a severe weakening…..

…..and possibly, the end…..

…..of U.S. Hegemony.

But, I should NOT have set a deadline…..

…..for the appearance of this pathogen.

Lesson learned.

Although…..

Still a few days to go until March 31st!

Who knows?

LOL.

Also, it would be “funny” if those who laugh at me now…..

…..are “sheltering in place”…..

…..or dying, or dead, come April or June…..

…..or really, at any time.

Who laughs last, laughs best.

Sure!
