    I promise this is the last link for the moment. But those not familiar with these things can at least get a taste.

    At least they are not playing Wacht am Rhein.

    This is why I follow the rather “esoteric” topic of State ceremonial as played out in various countries. Though until recently I have rather neglected Germany…

    • Well, speaking of state ceremonial symbolisms, watch Friday’s blog! I admit that like blakecosmos I find this unsettling and somewhat creepy. But I do think something much deeper than merely a return to old military traditions is going on.

    This channel is a true goldmine of the very latest manifestations of Prussianism: the Kriegsmarine (oops I meant Deutschemarine) marching with FLAMING TORCHES. See to believe.

    • When we see this kind of symbology, and these semiotics resurface, we are wise if we realize that on the shadow side of the symbol, something is stirring.

    Two or three “dark” faces in the rear ranks – just to make it PC!

    • Actually, I AM aware of all of this and have been for some time. These types of ceremonials with the Wachbattaillion, fife and drum, the bell tree and so on are common. They were slowly brought back. The only that that as yet has not been brought back is the Stechschritt/Paradeschritt (goosestep), which they did in Ottawa. That was a definite…[Read more]

    • Actually I am not surprised about the African-Germans. Africans served under the Kaiser in WW1 in the German colonies under von Lettow-Vorbeck, and did very well.

      • The NYT article on the Stadtschloss professed to be concerned about the “provenance of the African artwork”, but this might just be a way of hinting at something regarding the longstanding German connections with Africa.

    You ain’t see nuthin yet! March at Schloss Belvue, residence of the President of Germany.

    I have recently been to Berlin after a gap of a few years and found that the Royal Palace of the Hohenzollerns has almost been rebuilt. It is an exact copy (externally – the inside will be mostly modern) of the damaged palace demolished by the East Germans and replaced with a concrete horror. There are great pictures on this link, and I look…[Read more]

    Perhaps this is the key phrase in the article: “As much as 30% of the world’s oil supply transits the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz. Wily Persian Gulf traders – who know better – are virtually unanimous; if Tehran was really responsible for the Gulf of Oman tanker incident, oil prices would be going through the roof by now. They aren’t.”

    Coming soon from Mars: offworld cattle ranches producing greenhouse gas?

    • You mean this time it really is swamp gas?!

    • “NASA announces” .. Really!! … It reminds of THAT word “expert” .. In other wordss .. it’s become boring .. tedious and down right stupid .. Who cares what NASA announces .. Who cares what the “experts” say .. Odds ON it’s all bullsh!t anyways … sighh

      • Same here Freefall. I’ve also had enough of the ‘experts’ trying to explain how megalithic structures were moved in the ancient world. Last night I watched a show where their ‘expert’ was showing how gobele tepe blocks were carved with stone and moved with timber logs. The ‘expert’ was chiseling a small sandstone block about two foot square w…[Read more]

        • All you have to do to become an “expert” is purchase a white lab coat (preferably unbuttoned) .. don a pair of Martin Wells vintage retro sunglasses preferably with clear coke bottle lense .. a black clip board / Bic biro and voila .. You’ve become an EXPERT .. It’s even WORSE these days .. we don’t even get to see these “experts” .. We’re just…[Read more]

    So the myth of the all-powerful untouchable senator is in decline.

      Only reason I pay attention is for the direction of the narrative. May be real or a skool play to incite violence for 2A confiscation. If you watched the Nunes/DJT drama, Nunes is an actor using the same legal counsel for his “censorship lawsuit” as an unverifiable ex-see aye A spook/Nobel nominee. Always thought it would be corrupt judges…[Read more]

    Meanwhile, on the Moon…

    • In the “follow the money” line of thinking, now the refinery can be updated without going through a whole ordeal of lay-offs, shut downs, etc. Insurance? Meanwhile, it could keep the price of oil/gas here. Just thinking on keys…

    The ancestry of the probable next UK Prime Minister. Until this TV programme last year few knew that B. Johnson’s paternal great-grandfather was a journalist and politician in the Ottoman Empire, persecuted by the Young Turks. There are other tidbits too…

    It is paradoxical that the European Central Bank and their minions are targeting as “illegal” the proposed Italian use of small-denomination treasury bills to pay gov’t debts while one of the major world control grids is preparing to create money out of nothing, just like central banks. As one might imagine there have been a lot of ironic comments…[Read more]
