WESTERN FINLAND TO PHASE OUT REFUGEE INTAKE PROGRAM…….

By KGS9 years ago1

Nothing is free.

South Ostrobothnia decides to close its doors to refugees

The western Finland region of South Ostrobothnia has decided to phase out its refugee intake programme by autumn 2016. The region’s largest city, Seinäjoki, has hosted people from Myanmar and the Democratic Republic of Congo in the past, but local politicians have now decided to discontinue acceptance of refugees in a bid to save money. According to the Ministry of Employment and the Economy, South Ostrobothnia is the only region in Finland that has made this decision.

Pancrace Ruzindana arrived in Seinäjoki Finland with his wife and five children two and a half years ago as a refugee. He is now studying Finnish language and culture at the Lapua Christian Institute. Ruzindana left his war-torn home country in 1996, first fleeing to Rwanda, where his family lived in a refugee camp for 18 years. It now looks as if he and his family will be among the last refugees that the western Finnish region will accept, as the region recently decided to close its doors to refugees in the future.

State compensation does not cover expenses

The city of Seinäjoki is trying to balance its budget and to further this effort, municipal leaders have decided not to accept new refugees in the future. The regional arm of central government, the South Ostrobothnia ELY Centre, extended a refugee quota of 20 to Seinäjoki last year, but the municipal social and health services council decided in a 7 to 4 vote recently that the city doesn’t have the financial capacity to absorb any new refugee groups.

“Refugee welfare services will be gradually wound down, because it looks as if we won’t be taking in any new groups. Of course, the agreement between the city and the ELY Centre is still valid, so we’ll see if the situation changes in the future,” says Seinäjoki’s regional director for social work Päivi Saukko.

Good!! Why deliberately and willfully proceed further down the road of self destruction.

The left will have a fit about this I suppose.

Suck it up you nincompoops!

There’s No Common Cultural Legacy For The Alt-Right

Still, is there something to it? Is there a common heritage that will cover El Greco and Hume and Dostoyevsky? Is there one that can include the Jacobites and the Jacobins? There is, but it is not racial, and white supremacists reject it because it rejects them. The unifying heritage of Europe is religious and philosophical. It is Jerusalem and Athens, in one famous formulation. Christian religion and Greek philosophy, filtered through Roman law and culture, are the foundation of European culture. The tensions, agreements, developments and settlements between these have shaped the Western world, and these roots of Western civilization are not congenial to white supremacy.

Christianity is universal in its message and Jewish in its origins. For centuries after its founding, Christianity’s center was the Mediterranean world, including Asia Minor and North Africa. Christianity has never been defined by race, and locally-grown racist heresies are only sustainable among those ignorant of Christianity’s teachings, origins and history.

Greek philosophy is likewise ill-suited to serve as a basis for white identity. It is either too universal (addressing the human condition in general) or too local—none of us live as citizens of an ancient Greek polis. Later philosophical developments in Europe, such as the philosophies of the Enlightenment, likewise tend to be too universal for white supremacists seeking a tribal identity. As for the scientific revolution that developed within Western culture (albeit with much borrowed from outside Europe), math doesn’t care what color someone is.

War is being waged against Western culture from within which is in essence a war against Christianity and its moral origins in the Hebrew Bible. By attacking these Biblical foundations in the name of reason and human rights, the culture warriors of secularism are sawing off the branch on which they sit. The only way to defend Western civilisation is to reaffirm and restore its Biblical foundations. My argument is a development of ideas I first explored in my 2012 book The World Turned Upside Down: The Global Battle over God, Truth and Power.

We are living in an era which extols reason, science and human rights. These are said to be essential for progress, a civilised society and the betterment of humanity. Religion is said to be their antithesis, the source instead of superstitious mumbo-jumbo, oppression and backward-thinking.

Some of this hostility is being driven by the perceived threat from Islamic terrorism and the Islamisation of Western culture. However, this animus against religion has far deeper roots and can be traced back to what is considered the birthplace of Western reason, the 18th-century Enlightenment.

Actually, it goes back specifically to the French Enlightenment. In England and Scotland, the Enlightenment developed reason and political liberty within the framework of Biblical belief. In France, by contrast, anti-clericalism morphed into fundamental hostility to Christianity and to religion itself.

“Ecrasez l’infame,” said Voltaire (crush infamy) — the infamy to which he referred being not just the Church but Christianity, which he wanted to replace with the religion of reason, virtue and liberty, “drawn from the bosom of nature”.

Perfecting society

But this Enlightenment did not remove religion so much as pervert it. It took millenarian fantasies, the idea that the perfection of the world was at hand, and it secularised them. Instead of God producing heaven on earth, it would be mankind which would bring that about. Reason would create the perfect society and “progress” was the process by which utopia would be attained.

“I think that we should correct the vocabulary that we use, and call a spade a spade. It is all about Jihad, the Islamic effort to spread Islam globally”:

Terrorist attack – should be called Military Jihad.

Incitement – Media Jihad.

Al-Jazeera – Media Jihad Channel.

Imposing Sharia law – Judicial Jihad or Legislative Jihad.

Boycotting Israel (BDS) – Economic Jihad.

Emigration to EU and US – Emigration Jihad / Hijra Jihad.

Building mosques, Islamic education institutions – Cultural Jihad.

Halal food – Dietary Jihad.

Hijab or Niqab – Clothing Jihad.

Activity of MSA – Academic Jihad.

Activity of CAIR – Political Jihad / Public Jihad.

Collecting money for Islamic “charities” – Financial Jihad.

Political correctness – Submission to Jihad.

J Street, Peace Now, JVP and their likes – Jewish Useful Idiots who Serve Jihad.

Iran deal – Western Support for Nuclear Jihad.
