Arab Muslim slave traders are still actively hunting down and enslaving black people in Africa.
BLM, UN, and pro-Palestinian activists haven’t said a single word. Weird.

In 1893 a Norwegian scientist deliberately froze his ship into the Arctic ice, let it drift for three years, and lost not a single man to scurvy or anything else. Then he walked off it and spent nine months in a hole in the ground eating bear.
Fridtjof Nansen was thirty-two, a zoologist with a doctorate on the nervous system of a worm. His theory was that the polar current would carry a ship across the top of the world if the ship was built not to be crushed. He built one. He called it the Fram, took twelve men, and sailed into the pack.
For three years they lived in the dark and the cold with no fresh food arriving from anywhere. On every previous expedition that had meant scurvy, the disease that had killed more sailors than the sea. Nansen's crew had none. They shot polar bear and seal, and ate the meat fresh and barely cooked, as the Inuit did. The doctor on board had almost nothing to do.
In 1895 Nansen and one companion left the ship on skis to make for the Pole. They got further north than any human had been, turned back, and were caught by winter on an empty island. They built a hut of stones and walrus hide, and for nine months they ate bear meat and walrus blubber and nothing else. No vegetable, no grain, no fruit. They came out in the spring fatter than they went in.
Then they walked home.
Nansen went on to win the Nobel Peace Prize, and lived to 68.
Every schoolchild is taught that a diet without vegetables will rot you from the inside. Two men spent a winter underground on nothing but fat and meat and came out fit to walk across the Arctic, and that was 130 years ago.

Un profesor le dió un globo🎈a cada alumno que tuvo que inflarlo, escribir su nombre en él y tirarlo al pasillo. El profesor entonces mezcló todos los globos y dio a los estudiantes 5 minutos para que cada uno encontrara su propio globo. Tras la acelerada búsqueda, nadie encontró su globo. En ese momento, el profesor les dijo a los estudiantes que tomaran el primer globo que encontraran y se lo entregaran a la persona cuyo nombre estaba escrito en él. En 5 minutos cada uno tenía su propio globo. El profesor dijo a los estudiantes: - Estos globos son como la felicidad. Nunca la encontraremos si todo el mundo está buscando la suya, pero si nos preocupamos por la felicidad de los demás también encontraremos la nuestra.

Le summum de la « débauche » politique en Norvège !
Préparez-vous au choc… La présidente du Parlement norvégien, Eva Kristin Hansen, a démissionné et présenté ses excuses au peuple, à cause d’un « crime » impardonnable !
Imaginez un peu… Madame a utilisé un appartement de 50 m² (oui, un simple salon et une chambre !) appartenant à l’État.
La loi chez eux autorise l’occupation de ce logement uniquement si votre domicile se situe à plus de 40 kilomètres du Parlement… mais le « scandale » retentissant, c’est que sa maison se trouvait à seulement 29 kilomètres !
Autrement dit, elle aurait fait perdre à l’État « environ 11 kilomètres » de dignité politique !
Le plus drôle et triste à la fois :
• Non seulement elle a démissionné, mais elle a aussi annoncé qu’elle rembourserait de sa propre poche la « perte » causée à l’État.
• À titre d’information : la Norvège possède un excédent financier dépassant 1 300 milliards de dollars… et malgré cela, ils lui ont demandé des comptes pour un appartement de 50 m² et 11 kilomètres de différence !
Chez nous, si le domicile d’un responsable se trouvait à 29 mètres de son bureau, il demanderait peut-être un hélicoptère pour éviter les embouteillages du trottoir, et on le considérerait quand même comme un « grand homme d’État dévoué »

R52 million of taxpayer money burned on the Virginia Mega Poultry Project in Free State, now completely stripped and ruined.
Built in 2014–2017 for 17 local youth (mostly women) to house up to 200,000 chickens and create jobs. It failed immediately; high chick deaths, no markets, missing infrastructure, zero skills or support. NCOP flagged it in 2018. It was ignored. A private partnership offer in 2020 was rejected. By 2026 the place is plundered bare.
Classic ANC move. Flashy tender, dump the cash, walk away, leave the community with nothing. Meanwhile White commercial farmers keep feeding the country under constant threat.

University debate: "Vegan fashion is the ethical choice."
Vegan: "Nothing has to die for your wardrobe any more. Vegan leather, vegan wool, vegan silk, vegan fur. Compassion you can wear."
Farmer: "Read me the labels."
Vegan: "Sorry?"
Farmer: "Vegan leather. What's it made of?"
Vegan: "Polyurethane."
Farmer: "Oil. Vegan wool?"
Vegan: "Acrylic."
Farmer: "Oil. Vegan silk?"
Vegan: "Polyester."
Farmer: "Oil. Vegan fur?"
Vegan: "...Also polyester."
Farmer: "So the compassionate wardrobe is four different names for the same barrel of crude. You've not left the animal out. You've swapped the sheep for Shell."
Vegan: "And no sheep was harmed."
Farmer: "Mine are shorn and walk off lighter. They grow another. What does your jumper do when it's washed?"
Vegan: "It gets clean."
Farmer: "It sheds. Hundreds of thousands of fibres a load, too small for any filter. They're in the fish, the rain, human blood, the placenta, and in the plaque inside people's arteries. Around a third of the plastic in the sea is clothing. The whale on your tote bag is full of your cardigan."
Vegan: "That's an industry problem. The brands should fix it."
Farmer: "The brands sold it to you as kindness. You're the one who washed it."
Vegan: "Wool still exploits a sentient being."
Farmer: "Then weigh it. One sheep, inconvenienced for ten minutes a year. Against a fibre that's now in unborn children. If you'd told the vegan movement in 1944 that its clothes would end up inside a baby, I think it would have kept the sheep."
Vegan: "And when the wool wears out?"
Farmer: "Soil, inside two years. Your acrylic will still be here when my flock's a fossil."
Moderator: "Time."
Vegan: "For the record, my coat's plant-based. Cactus leather."
Farmer: "Cactus pulp glued together with polyurethane. You've come to a debate about plastic dressed as a succulent in a bin bag."

Activist: "The difference is nothing died for my dinner."
Farmer: "What did you have?"
Activist: "Rice, roast veg, hummus, a bit of bread. Oat milk in my tea."
Farmer: "The rice."
Activist: "Grown in a paddy."
Farmer: "A flooded field, drained for harvest. Frogs, fish, snails, eels, all of it dies in the mud. Then the combine. The veg?"
Activist: "Carrots, peppers, courgettes."
Farmer: "Carrots are a ploughed field. I've ploughed. The gulls follow the tractor because of what comes up in pieces. Peppers and courgettes are a polytunnel. Slug pellets, and a hive of bees trucked in to pollinate them, then the hive's left to die at the end of the season because it's cheaper than feeding it. The hummus?"
Activist: "Chickpeas."
Farmer: "Sprayed with something to kill the plant so it dries evenly for the combine. I've done that too. Whatever's living in it dries out with it. Mice, voles, leverets, partridge chicks. Twelve miles an hour, a blade eight metres wide. The bread?"
Activist: "...Wheat."
Farmer: "Same field, same machine, plus the rats in the grain store and what's done about them. Your oat milk's the same again, with a factory on the end."
Activist: "Those are all accidents."
Farmer: "I've killed more voles with a plough than I ever have with a bolt gun, and I'm the one with the bolt gun. One bullock off that hill is one death and a year's dinners. Your plate's about forty and you didn't see any of them."
Activist: "At least I didn't choose it."
Farmer: "You chose to be the only one at the table who didn't know."

If you are a CEO of Formula 1 and have to sit and listen to delegations led by Gayton or Nelly, I believe this was honestly an issue choice. Rwanda is about business, Gayton is about vibes😂😂
Probably he was also trying to also introduce them to a local 30% BEE partner (i.e. PA member) 🤡

A horrific war is underway in Yemen: Saudi Arabia fighting the Houthis. Women and children are dying and suffering there. South African social justice warriors and supporters of Palestine and Iran say nothing about it. Why? Israel is not involved, and it’s not profitable for them to talk about that war - they can’t cash in. These people are morally corrupt.

Over 150,000 dead. 14 million displaced. The largest humanitarian crisis on the planet.
Zero encampments. Zero daily demands. Zero celebrity statements.
Because there’s no Jewish state to blame.
No “from the river to the sea” slogan to chant.
No social media points to farm.
They don’t care about Arab lives when Arabs kill Arabs.
John Spencer nailed it. The brilliant urban warfare expert and Chair of Urban Warfare Studies studies how cities are fought in, not from a campus or TikTok tutorials.
While the anti-Zionist outrage industry fills the streets, universities, and airwaves over Hamas victim images, he points to Sudan:
“The silence is deafening. Civilian men, women, and children are being slaughtered in Sudan. Estimates of over 150,000 killed and 14 million displaced since April 2023. Considered the world’s largest humanitarian crisis. No mass protests. No daily political statements or demands. No college campus encampments.”
He is absolutely right. They don’t care about human lives when jihadists massacre people across the region. They only care when they can weaponize the dead against Israel.
That’s not humanitarianism. That’s a selective propaganda machine. If you see it, share it.

🇮🇱 IMAGINE THE SHOCK OF IDF SOLDIERS ENTERING HEZBOLLAH’S UNDERGROUND FORTRESS!
After years of intelligence gathering and preparation, Israeli soldiers finally entered the enormous underground complex beneath Ali al-Taher Ridge in southern Lebanon.
What they encountered was extraordinary.
A hidden military world carved into the mountain. Command centers. Weapons stores packed with rockets, missiles, drones and anti-tank weapons. Living quarters, kitchens, showers, generators and extensive underground passages.
Hezbollah had spent years building this fortified complex with Iranian support.
Imagine the realization: this was not just a tunnel. It was an entire underground military installation, designed to help Hezbollah wage war against Israel.
Israeli soldiers worked to secure the complex, clear its underground routes and enable the destruction of this massive terror infrastructure.
Years of construction. Enormous resources. A fortress hidden beneath a mountain.
And the IDF got inside.
🇮🇱 The intelligence. The courage. The determination. This is what Israel’s soldiers accomplished.
AM YISRAEL CHAI! 🇮🇱
