Queen with Flash. From the soundtrack for the movie Flash Gordon (1980).

As some commenter or another said, this was one song that was missing from the Bohemian Rhapsody movie. And because I'm such a good boy, here's your free pic of Princess Aura aka Ornella Muti. For some reason I always fancied her more than Princess Leia.

Notice how at the end of the clip a lady shouts "We have fourteen hours to save the Earth!!!" Hmmmm. I'm pretty certain I heard someone else saying that before. If I'm not mistaken, it was Princess Charla.

Nick Cave with Song for Bob. From the soundtrack of the movie The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007).

Well okay, not only Nick Cave's work. Warren Ellis, an Australian-French composer and sometimes member of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds, contributed with Cave for this soundtrack.




Over at The Gatestone Institute, the second installment on Britain's islamic Umvolkung, by Soeren Kern:

"July 5. Laurel Ellis, a conservative candidate for a council by-election in Merthyr Tydfil, a town in Wales, was suspended after sharing social media posts critical of Islam. Labour Assembly Member Dawn Bowden had claimed that the posts were Islamophobic. A spokesman for the Welsh Conservatives said that the party seeks "to reach out to, and represent, all communities and people from all walks of life in Wales."

July 6. Police in London revealed that they intervened to stop a suspected "child sex party" at a kebab shop in Bethnal Green. So-called "uck parties" (the word uck is a colloquial term for oral sex) involve young girls being plied with alcohol and drugs before older men have sex with them. Authorities in Tower Hamlets, which has the highest percentage of Muslim residents in England and Wales, has since revoked the kebab shop's alcohol license.

July 7. The Daily Mail reported that Imran Waheed, a 41-year-old psychiatrist with the National Health Service in Birmingham, was also working as an expert witness to British courts, even though he is an Islamist who has openly said he "does not believe in democracy" and is "not obedient" to secular law. In a BBC interview he said: "I've got no respect for any law other than Allah's, so I don't care about the law to be honest... I care for the law of Islam. I don't care for the law of any man."

July 8. An opinion essay published by the Guardian claimed that a new a new art exhibition in Florence reveals the "deep connection" between Europe and Islam:

"Embodied in the Renaissance view is certainly a sense of Islam as the other. But it is intertwined with curiosity, respect, even awe. There is a willingness, too, to reach beyond the otherness of Islam and to see the Muslim world not as demonic or exotic but as a variant of the European experience....

"At a time when many politicians present Islam as alien to the European experience, such shows are a useful reminder of how historically deeply intertwined are the worlds of Europe and Islam."

July 9. Amanda Spielman, the head of Ofsted, the schools regulator, accused Muslim groups of having a "sense of religious or cultural entitlement" and attempting to exert an outsize influence on school policy:

"For some children, school may be the only time in their lives that they spend time every day with people from outside their immediate ethnic or religious group, or at least where the values of people outside their own group can be explained and openly discussed.

"Islamist extremists, particularly fueled by the online propaganda of Daesh [Islamic State] and others, prey on a sense of isolation and alienation in some minority communities."

July 12. Thousands of Muslim pupils in Blackburn, Burnley, Hyndburn, Nelson, Preston and Rawtenstall were instructed to boycott all school meals when they return to class in September. The move followed the decision by the Lancashire County Council to stop supplying schools with unstunned halal meat, and instead to serve meat from pre-stunned cattle and sheep.

July 13. Sophie Rahman, the former head teacher of Eton Community School, a primary school in Ilford, was banned for life from teaching after it emerged that she had allowed the "London Bridge jihadi," Khuram Butt, to teach Arabic classes after school at the facility. Butt reportedly told children that non-Muslims were the "worst creatures" and that it was acceptable for them to lie to their parents. A panel found Rahman guilty of unacceptable professional conduct. She confirmed that the last day Butt taught the children was June 2, 2017. The next day, Butt, along with Rachid Redouane and Youssef Zaghba, plowed a van into people on London Bridge before launching a knife rampage around Borough Market. The attackers were shot dead by police officers.

July 15. Samantha Lewthwaite, a 34-year-old British convert to Islam, was reported to be recruiting suicide bombers to target summer holidaymakers in Britain, Cyprus, Greece, Spain and Turkey. The mother-of-four — known as the White Widow after her jihadi husband, Germaine Lindsay, killed himself along with 26 others in the 2005 London suicide bombings — was feared to have recruited up to 30 jihadis, who have been taught how to build suicide vests and choose their own targets. An intelligence source said:

"The White Widow hates Britain and everything the West stands for. She has completely turned her back on her country and her former life. She has mentored dozens of female terrorists and favors white converts to Islam because she feels they attract less suspicion by the security services."

July 17. The Independent reported on an inquiry which found that the British government received information detailing the activities of Muslim pedophile gangs in Rotherham as far back as 2002 but failed properly to act on it, apparently out of fear of being accused of racism. A large-scale inquiry was not launched until a decade later, after a Times report on the scale of grooming in Britain provoked a national scandal. Sarah Champion, Labour MP for Rotherham, said it was clear that the Home Office knew about child sexual exploitation in Rotherham since 2002:

"Why, when so many in authority knew the scale and severity of this crime, did it take until 2014, with the publication of the Jay report, for a large-scale investigation to occur? How many lives could have been protected if swift action had been taken a decade before?"

If you are not alarmed by this, you are part of the problem. Please then, note, that when the time comes, we will not discriminate between muslims and collaborators.

Welcome to this week's Thank Allah it's Friday, with Garyx Wormuloid telling us a thing or two about Memento.

As for me, Memento blew me away just like Reservoir Dogs or The Usual Suspects or Track 29 did. Trivia fact: neither of the main protagonists, Pearce, Moss and Pantoliano, were the director's first choice. For the role of Leonard, Christopher Nolan had actually wanted Brad Pitt. Pitt did read the script, and was interested, but for one reason or another it didn't go thru. However, Guy Pearce knew that Pitt had read the script, and because of that cred gave it a try himself, and was on board. Besides Carrie Ann Moss, Angelina Jolie, Ashley Judd and Famke Janssen were also contenders for the role of Natalie, and Moss wasn't even in the lead. Somehow however, she got it. And because of that, she was able to push Joe Pantoliano, her Matrix co-star, for the role of Teddy - while previously, Alec Baldwin had been considered.

Speaking of Pearce, Moss and Pantoliano, where the heck are all of them now?

Nite, and have a nice weekend.



Insane, irresponsible, America-hating goons.

There really is no contest, DowneastBlog's famous Twat of the Day Award goes to Anuna De Wever (17) and Kyra Gantois (19)!!!

Via HLN:

"Students of the Atheneum in Mortsel no longer want to stand idly by as the climate continues to warm up. Two girls are exhorting Flemish school children to skip class from now on and to demonstrate for the climate in Brussels."

From now on Anuna (17) will skip class every Thursday for the climate: "What's a missed hour of mathematics, if you can also demonstrate for a better climate?"

And boy, did the message about skipping math class fall on deaf ears. Not. A couple of days later 4,000 youths skipped class to demonstrate in Brussels. For the climate. Again, via HLN:

"Eight days ago Anuna De Wever (17) and Kyra Gantois (19) decided to skip class every Thursday, to protest in Brussels and ask for attention for the climate. Yesterday was Day 1 of their action and - fasten your seat belts - a staggering 4,000 students demonstrated in Brussels. "I'm so fucking glad!"

You don't say. Indeed, what's a paltry 4,000 missed hours of mathematics? 8,000 by the week after? 16,000, 32,000, 640,000??? The Climate warming up is more important. Let Chinese and Indian schoolchildren study mathematics and let us demonstrate! Progress!!!


"In Switzerland's East today an avalanche rumbled down inside the restaurant of a mountain hotel. Several people were wounded, local police said. On the Schwaegalp in the Appenzell Ausserrhoden canton snow came down. The snow mass buried vehicles and thundered inside the restaurant of Hotel Saentis....

...Several people were wounded, how many isn't clear. Emergency squads are still searching for possible missing ones."

You know what. I'm gonna sleep. Can't stand the insanity any more. Nite, except if you are Anuna (what kind of a name is that anyway?) or Kyra, or one of their eager acolytes, in which case I wish all of you have nightmares about being forced to watch An Inconvenient Truth over and over and over again and it turns out it's a bad comedy.

Oh wait... Duuuuh, it is actually a bad comedy.



Hey, I am NOT kidding. Up to three meters of it!

If you're heading for Austria you might want to skip the red areas ('extreme Gefahr'). Red. Must have got something to do with sunburn.

South and Central Germany also got a healthy dose of GW:

Granted, that's in the old massif of the Harz region. From Schierke, elevation some 600 meters or so, you can climb the Brocken, the highest mountain in the Harz, some 1142m if I'm not mistaken. The train is a steam train that takes tourists up to the summit and back. But even so, snowfall like that is extraordinary.

Al Gore could not be reached for comment.

"My fellow Americans, tonight I'm speaking to you because there is a growing humanitarian and security crisis at our southern border. Every day, customs and border patrol agents encounter thousands of illegal immigrants trying to enter our country. We are out of space to hold them, and we have no way to promptly return them back home to their country. America proudly welcomes millions of lawful immigrants that enrich our society and contribute to our nation, but all Americans are hurt by uncontrolled illegal migration. It strains public resources and drives down jobs and wages. Among those hardest hit are African Americans and Hispanic Americans. Our southern border is a pipeline for vast quantities of illegal drugs including meth, heroin, cocaine, and fentanyl.

Every week 300 citizens are killed by heroin alone. 90% of which floods across from our southern border. More Americans will die from drugs this year than were killed in the entire Vietnam War. In the last two years, I.C.E. Officers made 266,000 arrests of aliens with criminal records including those charged or convicted of 100,000 assaults, 30,000 sex crimes, and 4,000 violent killings. Over the years, thousands of Americans have been brutally killed by those who illegally entered our country and thousands more lives will be lost if we don't act right now. This is a humanitarian crisis. A crisis of the heart, and a crisis of the soul. Last month, 20,000 migrant children were illegally brought into the United States, a dramatic increase. These children are used as human pawns by vicious coyotes and ruthless gangs. One in three women are sexually assaulted on the dangerous trek up through Mexico. Women and children are the biggest victims, by far, of our broken system.

This is the tragic reality of illegal immigration on our southern border. This is the cycle of human suffering that I am determined to end. My administration has presented congress with a detailed proposal to secure the border and stop the criminal gangs, drug smugglers, and human traffickers. It's a tremendous problem. Our proposal was developed by law enforcement professionals and border agents at the department of homeland security. These are the resources they have requested to properly perform their mission and keep America safe. In fact, safer than ever before. The proposal from homeland security includes cutting edge technology for detecting drugs, weapons, illegal contraband and many other things.

We have requested more agents, immigration judges to process the sharp rise in unlawful migration fueled by our very strong economy. Our plan also contains an urgent request for humanitarian assistance and medical support. Furthermore, we have asked congress to close border security loopholes so that illegal immigrant children can be safely and humanely returned back home. Finally, as part of an overall approach to border security, law enforcement professionals have requested $5.7 billion for a physical barrier. At the request of Democrats it will be a steel barrier rather than a concrete wall. This barrier is absolutely critical to border security.

It's also what our professionals at the border want and need. This is just common sense. The border wall would very quickly pay for itself. The cost of illegal drugs exceeds $500 billion a year. Vastly more than the $5.7 billion we have requested from congress. The wall will also be paid for indirectly by the great new trade deal we have made with Mexico. Senator chuck Schumer who you will be hearing from later tonight has repeatedly supported a physical barrier in the past along with other Democrats. They changed their mind only after I was elected president.

Democrats in congress have refused to acknowledge the crisis and they have refused to provide our brave border agents with the tools they desperately need to protect our families and our nation. The federal government remains shutdown for one reason, and one reason only, because Democrats will not fund border security. My administration is doing everything in our power to help those impacted by the situation but the only solution is for Democrats to pass a spending bill that defends our borders and reopens the government. This situation could be solved in a 45 minute meeting. I have invited congressional leadership to the white house tomorrow to get this done. Hopefully we can rise above partisan politics in order to support national security.

Some have suggested a barrier is immoral. Then why do wealthy politicians build walls, fences, and Gates around their homes? They don't build walls because they hate the people on the outside but because they love the people on the inside. The only thing that is immoral is the politicians to do nothing and continue to allow more innocent people to be so horribly victimized. America's heart broke the day after Christmas when a young police officer in California was savagely murdered in cold blood by an illegal alien, just came across the border. The life of an American hero was stolen by someone who had no right to be in our country. Day after day, precious lives are cut short by those who have violated our borders. In California an air force veteran was raped, murdered, and beaten to death with a hammer by an illegal alien with a long criminal history.

In Georgia, an illegal alien was recently charged with murder for killing, beheading, and dismembering his neighbor. In Maryland, ms-13 gang members that arrived in the United States as unaccompanied minors were arrested and charged last year after viciously stabbing and beating a 16-year-old girl over the last several years I have met with dozens of families whose loved ones were stolen by illegal immigration. I have held the hands of the mothers and embraced the grief stricken fathers. So sad, so terrible. I will never forget the pain in their eyes, the tremble in their voices, and the sadness gripping their souls. How much more American blood must we shed before congress does its job? To those that refuse to compromise in the name of border security, I would ask, imagine if it was your child, your husband, or your wife whose life was so cruelly shattered and totally broken. To every member of congress, pass a bill that ends this crisis.

To every citizen, call congress, and tell them to finally, after all of these decades, secure our border. This is a choice between right and wrong, justice and injustice. This is about whether we fulfill our sacred duty to the American citizens we serve. When I took the oath of office, I swore to protect our country, and that is what I will always do so help me god. Thank you and good night."

Almost to the day two years ago, I endorsed Donald Trump for President. I did so not because of any conservative credentials, but because I was convinced he was the only one with a sporting chance to beat Hillary Clinton.

Today, I can only conclude that a man who in his previous life never gave the impression of being a Conservative, certainly rules like one. This is a man who truly, deeply, loves his country and its citizens and is committed to defend it and all the good things that it has stood for so far.

President Trump is a godsend, a Righteous Man for our troubled times.

Lookie look, Belgium's prime newspaper De Standaard has a story to tell about an attack by leftist radicals on an AfD politician:

"Frank Magnitz, Chairman of the extreme rightwing party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) in the German region Bremen, on Monday became the victim of an attack.

The man was admitted to hospital with severe wounds, according to a statement from his party..."

Really De Standaard? Wow, thank you for enlightening us. And for the nice photo of Mr Magnitz.

Now for a reality dose. This is Mr Magnitz in his current state in a hospital in Bremen:

"Became the victim of an attack", huh?

Mr Magnitz studied banking, pedagogy and for a short while jurisprudence. In between, for a couple of months in the late sixties, he was a member of the DKP, the Deutsche Kommunistische Partei, but as Winson's saying goes, "if you're not a socialist at twenty yada yada yada etc etc etc". We will forgive him his youthful foolishness. Anyway, towards the end of the seventies Mr Magnitz founded a company for construction materials, which he sold again in 1999. Since then, he has been a consultant in the building sector and a succesful local real estate mogul.

And now for the cincher: he is heterosexual, married (to a Turkish woman), and the father of six children. Aaarggghhhh!!!

So that's why. Mr Magnitz is a highly successful, decent, (massively) contributing, law abiding citizen, whose very lifestyle breathes conservatism, and our red and green cocitoyens just can't-have-that. The famous leftist tolerance at work!

DowneastBlog wishes Mr Magnitz a speedy recovery and congratulates him for bravely standing up for sanity and common sense in a Europe that's becoming more batshit crazy every day.
