Cujus regio ejus religio.
Cujus regio ejus natio.
Cujus regio ejus oeconomica.
Cujus regio ejus ideologica.
Cujus regio ejus praeco.

"He who rules decides..."
These few axioms give an idea of the extent of decision in various states. In spatial terms the power of decision is much greater in the ordering of religion than in ideology; the ground of the nation has a destructive capacity and range of conflict that is not possible with the news. At the same time, the news relates to the nation in a way that myth, theology, literature, and art cannot. "Only a newspaper can deposit the same thought in a thousand minds at once." And only a myth can impose an absolute moment of mystery in a thousand minds, make a thousand ideas pregnant with meaning at once.

In war the strength of decision and capacity for mobilisation is raised to the highest. All of the violence, on and off the battlefield, erupts to face the immediate, the incursion into sovereignty by an enemy and a third, neutralising territory. War is a national reversal in life just as tragedy is in death. Only myth, with its onrushing meaning and metamorphoses can explain this – the danger of a third territory and death of a nation.

The news can only refer defeat, as in the world wars when the newspapers became overwhelmed with obituaries. Such frequency of death, a war that can never end, can never have anything like the recitation of a Catalogue of Ships. The Unknown Soldier is an Achilles in the underworld, and cannot be visited by an Odysseus.

Here one may begin to see why nationalists, just like the post-nationalists, cannot think the myth of war – only news or professional wrestling are capable of communicating his relation to war. Xenophon describes a dance of soldiers, the carpaea, with one side playing the part of farmers and the other the barbarians. "A man is sowing and driving a yoke of oxen, his arms laid at one side, and he turns about frequently as one in fear; a robber approaches; as soon as the sower sees him coming, he snatches up his arms, goes to meet him, and fights with him to save his oxen." The readiness of the farmer for war is mixed up in the aesthetics of the dance in a dionysian, or empedoclean, way. With his weapons ready-to-hand the farmer can immediately become a warrior, just as the warriors performing the dance use it as a secondary type of training and drilling. Or perhaps it is the primary training. The noscripted and fake fighting of professional wrestlers is ideal because they represent figures for whom true struggle is never possible, for whom war is little more than entertainment, the relaying of events in the backyards of Turkey. It is something even less than the news, a dance of death for those who think they will never have to face it.

Now *this* is the way to discuss terrorism & the West's hypocrisy in claiming Russian "terrorism".

"There is nothing constructive about the pot calling the kettle black. If the EU is going to start naming "state sponsors of terrorism," let's do it... Let's recognise West-sponsored terrorism too, and make sure 🇺🇲🇬🇧🇫🇷🇪🇺 and their pals 🇮🇱🇹🇷🇸🇦 & the rest are all on the list."

The Franco-Prussian War is perhaps the seminal conflict of the modern era insofar as it highlights the value of incorporating new forms of organization, logistics, and industry to quickly mobilize, seize the initiative, and conquer the enemy. Marshal von Moltke was a visionary for his time. He was able to synthesize technology and the soldierly prowess of the Prussian army to score decisive victories and advance the interests of the German Empire.

If you want a picture of the world civil war, imagine a starving Ethiopian laughing at a starving European—forever.

"There are humans who first grasp the age of atomic energy when a hydrogen bomb falls upon their heads."
~ Carl Schmitt

Pure force is essential to the great man, yet where he fails, where he presses on to a less than tragic defeat, there is an incapacity for introspection. This is what divides the great man from the hero, the inability to turn away. What separates Achilles from all the other heroes is the total force with which he turns away, his meditation on life and fate is equal to all the other battles. Combined with the immediacy of decision, it is greater.

Post-historical warfare will eventually be fought with sticks and stones, but first...

Fight breaks out between protesters and parents taking their kids to a drag show. This happened last weekend outside of the Clark County Library in Las Vegas, NV, where a child drag show was taking place.

Julius Evola's article in honor of Kamikaze pilots that I translated into English from the Italian article “Roma” that he wrote on the 11th of December 1957:

Many readers will already know who the Kamikaze were. This name was given to those Japanese aviators who in the last war with a load of explosives threw themselves together with the aircraft on enemy ships to blow them up. Much has been said about these "death volunteers", now with admiration, now with horror. 

But the full meaning of this initiative has not always been grasped, indeed unprecedented in history: because this is the first case of a systematically studied and organized tactic involving the certain death of the combatants, applied not in sporadic cases, near forms of exaltation. heroic individual, but for a long time and with a properly trained special corps.

MOSCOW, October 23. /TASS/. The situation in Ukraine was the focus of telephone talks between Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu and Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin, the second ones in the past three days, the Russian defense ministry said on Sunday.

"Telephone talks between Russian Defense Minister Army General Sergey Shoigu and US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. The two defense ministers discussed the situation in Ukraine," the ministry said.

The two defense chiefs spoke over the phone on Friday. The call was initiated by the US side.

Earlier in the day, Shoigu spoke over the phone with his British, French and Turkish counterparts, Ben Wallace, Sebastien Lecornu and Hulusi Akar, to convey Russia’s concerns over possible provocations with the use of a dirty bomb in Ukraine.

The topic of Ukraine’s nuclear blackmail was raised by Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, who said earlier that Kiev has planned to make a dirty bomb of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.

"Here lies the secret as to why one and the same generation was able to come to apparently contradictory conclusions: to be shattered to pieces in the war, or to be blessed, through the close proximity to death, fire, and blood, with health as had never been experienced before. The Great War was fought between not only two groups of nations, but also two epochs, and in this sense there are both victors and vanquished within our country."
