[ColonelCassad] The current dramatic events in Ceuta will have many consequences. The first and most obvious is the strengthening of various far-right xenophobic movements and "defenders of the white race" in Europe. This will be another step on the march toward Nazism.

Or perhaps defenders of liberty against a totalitarian religious tyranny…

The modern average person doesn't understand that the daily nightmare of much of the Global South is a direct result and part of the West's project not only to economically subjugate colonies but also to culturally and cognitively corrupt their populations, without which complete subjugation would be impossible.

Or perhaps it’s because the so-called Global South went all in on revolutionary socialist governance compounded by native corruption to create an unholy mess that only now is quickly unwinding in the slowly increasing number of Third World countries that are going for MAGA-style capitalist democracy.

What the right likes to describe as "savage barbarism" is in fact the consequence of centuries of savage policies by the metropolises, which established utterly cannibalistic regimes in the subjugated lands, in which the difference between dictatorship and democracy is purely lexical.

So? Right and wrong don’t change because one’s ancestral culture chose to be vicious brutes. It is up to the individual to choose to do better — the Ten Commandments are free for all.

Blaming "bad upbringing" or "lack of culture" on people who have eked out a bestial existence for generations, accustomed to a brutal struggle for survival, is the height of imbecility and cynicism. The growing conflict between hordes of migrants and frightened European citizens, losing the last social protections of their pseudo-progressive states, is the dream of any modern-day Hitler. In any case, Trump will exploit this situation to the fullest, ordering strikes on Iran while telling his flock about a bomb planted by communists in the US Democratic Party under white and Christian European civilization.

Throwing all the hot button words against the wall in the hope that some will explode that sentence makes no sense otherwise.

Today's fascists of any nationality will now speak with the same fervor about Muslims as their predecessors did about Jews a century ago.

Except while the Jews were mostly good, productive citizens who asked nothing more from the state than a chance to strive, the Moslem colonists demand to be supported by the state while taking advantage of the native wives and daughters. A very different effect on their neighbours, donchaknow.

The political imperative for these speeches hasn't changed one bit. Everything is coming back. The boomerang of history, once launched by Hernán Cortés, Francisco Pizarro, Leopold II, Cecil Rhodes, Carl Peters, and the rest, is on its return approach to Europe. New generations of misanthropes and Nazis will have much to talk about. This situation won't be changed by closing borders or by cosmetic changes to this or that immigration law.

As long as the gap between those dying of hunger and those bursting with gluttony grows, the wandering nightmare of migration will remain a boomerang of crime and violence on the streets and squares of the "First World." What is the fault of ordinary Europeans? For centuries, their compatriots have ignored the rotten roots of their democratic achievements and their material well-being.

In this particular case, the scenario is extremely simple. The invasion of tens of thousands of migrants into Spain is an operation by the Kingdom of Morocco,

…true…

commissioned by their superiors in the US and Israel.

...but that bit is the extremely smelly product of the bovine alimentary system. President Trump has been pushing for Europe to close its borders to invasion as he has done for America, and Israel has been begging Europe to clean up the jihadis in their midst, who are a direct danger to Europe’s Jewish citizens. Neither has any reason to abet the opposite, no matter how deliberately offensive the current Socialist government of Spain might be to both.

There is already ample video evidence confirming the involvement of Moroccan security forces in transporting citizens to the border breach site.

Indeed.

The goal is to punish and remove the current Spanish government for criticizing Israel's crimes and refusing to participate in the aggression against Iran. This will make other US European vassals more accommodating.

Could Mr. Yasinsky be more of a parody than that statement?

Nick Shirley’s New Video Dismantles the Left’s Narrative on Ceuta's Migrant Crisis

[PJMedia] Intrepid investigative journalist Nick Shirley isn't one to shrink from danger. He had to escape from Cuba when spies followed him during his trip to the communist island and was forced to hire 24/7 security after exposing Somali fraud in Minneapolis. In his latest video, Shirley once again finds himself in serious peril when a Moslem man chases him through the streets while wielding a knife and threatening to stab him.

The scene of the pursuit was the Spanish North African enclave of Ceuta, which has made headlines in recent days after 60,000 illegal ~~migrants~~ colonists poured in from Morocco. Shirley traveled to the autonomous city to report on the current state of the crisis, which has become more manageable after most of the ~~migrants~~ colonists returned to Morocco.

While the knife chase — in which the enraged man yells, "I'm going to stab both of you," at Shirley and Javier Mansilla, the Spanish vigilante who accompanies Shirley in the video, as they run down the street — will likely attract the most attention, there are several other revealing moments I want to highlight that go against the left's preferred narrative of what is occurring in Spain right now.

SPANIARDS FEEL UNSAFE
A woman from Ceuta tells Shirley that she "felt threatened" in the immediate days after the border breach. "I couldn't go outside with my baby. We couldn't go outside. I live up high, but my neighbor lives on the ground floor. And they were scared they were going to break into the house," she says.

Mansilla then expresses the anger that so many Spaniards, like the more than 1,000 who protested in Madrid on Sunday, feel about the country's migrant crisis, which has resulted in horrific crimes against women:

I feel very, very angry. I cannot understand how we let our own women live with fear going, running to their homes with the baby. Like "I don't want to stay in the street. I go home. Thank you. Thank you." I'm not going to allow this. Any Spanish guy shouldn't allow this. If we are men, if we are real men, we should do something right now.

Mansilla continues with a warning to all of Europe: "If we don't wake up now, we will fall. For sure. For sure. This is our moment. Wake up, Europe. Wake up."

There is a political party that is talking about the link between insecure borders and crime: the conservative Vox party, led by Santiago Abascal, who traveled to Ceuta on Sunday. He called what happened an "invasion" and said, "The frontiers of Ceuta and Melilla are the walls of our home and homeland, and they are not being protected by a corrupt and traitorous government."

The media portrays Vox and other European parties opposed to illegal immigration as radical or far-right in order to render their ideas unfit for serious debate. In a similar fashion, the media — like Anne Applebaum in her Atlantic piece, "The Far Right Is Distorting Ceuta" — has tried to dismiss the right’s concerns over the crisis in Ceuta while criticizing it for labeling the situation an "invasion." That’s why the work of independent journalists like Shirley is so important: it helps uncover the true story.

THE ILLEGAL MIGRANTS SURE DO LOVE PEDRO SÁNCHEZ
While lefties like Spanish actor Javier Bardem are busy spreading conspiracy theories about Israel being responsible for Spain's border crisis, the ~~migrants~~ colonists whom Shirley interviews are pretty clear about who motivated them to risk death — at least 72 people died while crossing — to come to Spain: Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. Indeed, the most frequently repeated words in the video are "Viva Pedro Sánchez!" or "Long live Pedro Sánchez!" "I love Pedro Sánchez" is also a popular refrain. As I wrote in Elon Musk Was Right: Pedro Sánchez Is a Traitor, "Their gratitude to the Socialist prime minister is due to his mass amnesty plan, which received 1.2 million applications by its June 30, 2026, deadline."

But don't take my word for it. A 17-year-old Moroccan migrant, when asked by Shirley how he expects to leave Ceuta and get to mainland Spain, says matter-of-factly, "Through asylum."

THE IDEA THAT MUSLIMS VIEW SPAIN AS OCCUPIED ISN’T A MYTH
After another migrant in Shirley's video declares, "This is Morocco," Mansilla explains that Ceuta in fact became part of Spain hundreds of years before Morocco gained its independence in 1956.

Not everyone cares about that fact. As I wrote in a 2007 article for the Strategic Studies Group on the "intifada of Spain's Ceuta":

The autonomous regions of Ceuta and Melilla are seen by Islamists as the opening fronts in their anticipated reconquest of Spain. Last year a North African group calling itself Nadim al-Magrebi warned of a holy war against the infidel Spanish state which has occupied the two cities. al-Qaeda's number two, Ayman Zawahiri
...Formerly second in command of al-Qaeda, now the head cheese, occasionally described as the real brains of the outfit. Formerly the Mister Big of Egyptian Islamic Jihad. Bumped off Abdullah Azzam with a car boom in the course of one of their little disputes. Is thought to have composed bin Laden's fatwa entitled World Islamic Front Against Jews and Crusaders. Currently residing in the North Wazoo area assuming he's not dead like Mullah Omar. He lost major face when he ordered the nascent Islamic State to cease and desist and merge with the orthodox al-Qaeda spring, al-Nusra...>
, has called for Islamic land to be reconquered from al-Ándalus to Iraq and compared the Spanish occupation of Ceuta and Melilla to the Russian occupation of Chechnya and the Israeli occupation of Paleostine.

The irony that Spain, perhaps the most antisemitic country in Europa
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
— or at least the one with the most antisemitic leader — should be so hostile to Israel, which, like Spain, faces claims that its territory is occupied, is obvious. That's why I agree with my colleague Scott Pinsker that mockery of Spain's (and the left's) hypocrisy on this issue is warranted.

The Times of Israel points out that hundreds of underage migrants remain in Ceuta after border breach:

Spanish authorities legally required to care for minors, though city migrant center now full, forcing many to beg on streets.

Human interest bit snipped.

She is one of some 860 minors who remained in Ceuta on Monday after crossing over, according to local officials. AP journalists saw other minors asking for food.

Those minors now make up a large part of the 3,000-5,000 migrants who have avoided expulsion from Ceuta, of the original 60,000 who came across. Spanish authorities confirmed 72 people died, mostly in the water, during the crossing. Morocco reported 11 deaths, which are not included in the Spanish total, the Spanish Interior Ministry said.

MINORS MUST BE CARED FOR UNDER LAW
Spanish law says that adult migrants can apply for asylum. If rejected, they will face expulsion procedures. The bar is normally very high for Moroccans to be granted humanitarian protection.

Migrant minors who are unaccompanied by adults, however, are supposed to be granted protection and taken care of by Spanish authorities.

An AP journalist witnessed Spanish soldiers escorting an unaccompanied Moroccan boy who was crying and begging not to be sent back to Morocco. A few meters before reaching the border, and due to pressure from local residents who insisted he was a minor, as well as the presence of the media, a lieutenant colonel in the Spanish Army stopped the repatriation and transferred the boy to the Spanish Civil Guard.

Most of the Moroccan adults have either voluntarily gone home or were pushed back by Spanish police. Among those who remain in Ceuta are significant numbers of people from other countries, including Sudanese fleeing their war-torn country, Palestinians from Gaza, and Afghans, as well as people from several African nations.

The city’s migrant center with a capacity for 600 people is completely full. Food is scarce among the migrants, according to reporting by AP journalists.

“The strategy is that hunger, thirst and exhaustion forces these people to finally decide to voluntarily return to Morocco,” said local migration activist Ramsés Mohamed Azumik of Asociación Elín.

Many migrants sleep or rest on the beach or hills surrounding the speck of Spain. In the hazy distance, mainland Europe, their ultimate goal, lies across the sea.

RUNAWAY ONLINE RUMORS SPARKED FRANTIC RUSH
It started with Instagram posts that suggested Spain’s border with Morocco was opening up. Then came Facebook users tracking coast guard patrols and TikTok videos showing where to swim.

After many shares and comments, thousands of Moroccans became convinced that Europe was suddenly within reach.

Within hours, young people began heading toward the border with Ceuta. Packed buses rolled into the neighboring Moroccan city of Fnideq. Regional trains filled up. Taxis did too.
