Roth Note: A comment from Lineman to my post Hard Truth “… will White Folk wake up in time and I say will White People sacrifice in time before they become sacrifices….” coincided with my reading of a Burlingame essay, The Shielding of Fólkvangr – And the Calling Before the End . A very poetic and in my view beautiful essay concerning sacrifice. It’s based on Germanic myth, a world-view held by our ancestors. The reader may want to read it as an allegory. I share it here for those willing to open their minds, find a quiet place, and read it … slowly … and contemplate how it applies to us … now … as the old world dies and monsters roam freely. This is not an X post or a sound bite. It requires thought and contemplation.

The hiding must last the full length of the world’s dying. And so, what has already been drawn inside will remain alive, guarded, and hard to reach—like the last dry grain kept in sealed jars beneath the floors of houses that burned around them years ago, or the hidden bloodlines that survived successive empires by learning the art of becoming unremarkable until the new dynasty had passed. This is the long screening: the occlusion that lets the necessary work continue inside the collapsing worlds for as long as the outer war still burns.

“We burned so they could hide. We roared so they could whisper. Our glory was their veil.”

The veil is thinner now than it has been in many generations beyond an honest count. Those who still answer the old blood-call can feel the difference in the air—the slight, continuous pressure of something that has been waiting outside the reach of ordinary time.

If your marrow stirs as you read this—if you feel the cold touch of a forgotten oath at the base of your skull, if you have ever looked at a stranger and recognized a shape of knowing that does not belong to this lifetime—then you may already be among the many-skilled. You may already have been marked for the harvest. You may already be walking toward a threshold whose name you have not yet been told.

US Pauses Iran Bombing Campaign As Saudi-Houthi Red Sea Front Erupts

Meanwhile, the US appeared to pause its 13-day campaign of daily overnight strikes against Iran. While there was no indication that the operational halt would extend into next week, the pause certainly reinforces the diplomatic signals highlighted in our US-Iran wrap on Friday.

However, there was an escalation overnight with Saudi-led strikes on Iran-backed Houthi targets in Hodeida. This comes after the terror group attacked multiple Saudi-linked tankers in the southern Red Sea area.

Roth Note: Trump had been threatening the biggest strike of all last night. Looks like another TACO. I wish he’d decide to either ‘fish or cut bait.’ Either go ahead and FAFO or withdraw from the region. Withdrawal being my preference.

Rather like Hitler in the Berlin bunker, Clown World is so desperate to keep its claws on the controls that it is not only risking its own fate, but the entire economic fate of the West on wars that are objectively unwinnable. And it appears that they will be attempting their own run for Argentina before they throw in the towel.

Twenty-two centuries ago, some Greek bloke called Polybius was hauled to Rome as a hostage, and he spent his captivity studying the place, not as a tourist, but the way a doctor studies a patient he already suspects is dying.

His conclusion was that no form of government lasts. They turn into one another, in order, like a wheel coming round.

He called it Anacyclosis.

It runs like this:

1. A strong man rules well, and that is monarchy.
2. His sons rule for themselves, and that is tyranny.
3. The best men kill the tyrant and take his place: aristocracy, the good few.
4. Their sons grow greedy: oligarchy, the rich few.
5. The people rise and throw the rich out: democracy.
6. And then democracy curdles into the thing Polybius dreaded most — ochlocracy, mob-rule, where the loudest voice wins — until it gets bad enough that the crowd itself begs for a strong man to make it stop. Which is where we came in.

His reason for why this keeps happening is really worth thinking about: Every government, he said, breeds the thing that kills it, the way iron breeds rust. The end isn’t an accident; it’s in the metal from the start.

What we genuinely have right now is a late democracy: the mass franchise intact in its forms, decaying in its substance. A managerial class that calls itself a meritocracy presides over a crowd that calls itself the people — each dressed up as something nobler than it is.

The purpose of marriage is to strengthen the folk. Thus only people of the same folk can do this. Those of one blood, soil, and spirit raise good children. An international (let alone interracial) marriage is an abomination.

Roth Note: Explain to me how this is wrong. Even Muhammad Ali (Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr.), a punch drunk boxer, had this figured out. One can breed a lion and a tiger. Doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. And how, pray tell, is it a good idea to bring mixed race children into the world? How do they ever determine who or what they are? What culture is theirs?

For the Christian reader who contends they’d rather have their daughter marry a different race Christian than a same race non-Christian … that pesky little Scripture about God not being the author of confusion? I know, but people are authors of confusion … but they don’t have to be. Who promotes mixed race marriages for white Folk? Oh, that would be those of the Tribe that prohibit such among themselves.

How did we let our leaders take us down this path of destruction? The answer is in the Epstein files.

Roth Note: Good background on Yemen and what they’re doing now and why.
