The latest example of how the all-purpose condemnation of “racism” can be applied to any act or policy the speaker dislikes is a real doozy. Afghanistan’s ambassador doesn’t like what he sees in his backyard, as resistance to the US-led invasion stiffens and NATO resolve withers. Poor fellow could end up picking poppies (or worse!) if the NATO-installed puppet government he works for can’t hold on to power. And without popular support, the Afghan puppet government can’t stand on its own, so it must have more NATO troops to prop it up. To spur NATO forces to action, the Afghan ambassador accuses them of the most unforgivable shortcoming of New-Age Western man:
Afghanistan’s ambassador to the United States attacked Western governments fighting in and providing billions in aid to his country, saying that those who claim the international community is not winning the war against extremists there “should know that they never fully tried.”
“We never asked to be the 51st state,” Ambassador Said T. Jawad said, a reference to a suggestion last month by Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) that the United States should concentrate on “realistic goals” and its “original mission” of counterinsurgency in Afghanistan.
“To suggest that Afghans do not deserve peace, pluralism and human rights is wrong and racist,” Jawad said.
The notion that opposing a US-led invasion is “racist” is nothing new. Condi Rice once judged critics of the Neocon fantasy of reconstructing Iraq into a Jeffersonian republic as “racist.” But now that idea is being used to control us.
DC projects a self-image to the rest of the world as the purest, most secularly sacred force for doing good on the planet. So any criticism of its actions, or any limitation on its power, is wrong-headed, retrograde, or just plain evil. It’s a reputation than can intimidate critics both domestic and foreign. But that reputation can be turned on its owner to manipulate him, too, as the esteemed and increasingly nervous Afghan ambassador illustrates.

It’s a short step from universal humanism within the US to pure universal humanism.

Which is exactly where the globalists want to take us.

Exactly! Here’s a great read by Kevin MacDonald’s “The Culture Of Critique”.

I think he actually posted it at AR around 1994 under a pen name, but it is very good.

Oy vey! Taki is facing Poland perched atop a Panzer, LOL!
“Still, the only reason Israel’s economy exists is because of American aid [He means Jews need Whites, Whites don't need Jews]. Yet Israel has grown so accustomed to American largesse, it has for a long time felt free to interfere in America’s domestic agenda and ruin American lives the moment they don’t play ball [He means the filthy goyim had better pay their tribute and learn to love it, damnit.]. The fact that a son of an Irgun terrorist is Barack Obama’s chief-of-staff is proof enough that from the president down, no one’s safe [Knowing who Obongo's puppeteer is spoils the show]. The only way to stop this is to call off the free ride [Blasphemy!]. The grip Israel has on Uncle Sam’s throat has finally become a stranglehold [Better learn CPR, Whitey.]. The rest of the world knows this, but somehow the average American remains brainwashed about that tiny brave country resisting Arab hordes [This wouldn't have anything to do with media control, would it?].”

Thanks for the tip, roho.
Remember the fourteen words: “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White children.”
