We here at Bloody Nib Manor are peaceful people. We like peace, love and happiness. And we want the same for the World. But when a poacher encroaches upon the estate to steal our wild game or livestock we have no choice but to get out the shotgun, the hounds, and horse whip and search out those who have violated the sanctity of what is legally and morally ours and give them a sound thrashing despite the malefactor's pleading of poverty. After all, said malefactor receives from the State a monthly stipend that is about equal to the monthly income of the estate. And while we are not rich, we are not poor. He. or she, wants what we have. Not because he needs it- after all, how many people are making rabbit stew in Southern California to feed their starving children-- but because he or she wants it.
And we have found that often such people are bullies of the worst sort. They beat their kids, wife, husband, brothers, sister, moms and dads just because they can do it an instill fear in those who depend upon them just because they can. They are like idiotic scientists who think, "Gee, if I can make a robot that is a better worker than a real human that would be a good thing despite the fact that my invention would throw many people out of work and drive them into poverty. And that would be a good thing because I did something that can be done and because I'll make a venture capitalist a whole lot of jack and I'll be hated by every wrench turner in the world."
Now, to get down to brass tacks after this all too long introduction which is barely related to the point of this nonsense. Let us agree that the Assad family of Syria is a family of awful dictators and jerks. They are, as many leaders in Arab lands, not people you'd want to share grazing land with. In fact, to the average American, if an Assad patronized a certain Wal-Mart, said Wal-Mart would lose a lot of customers because that Wal-Mart would become known as the "Jerk Wal-Mart." Of course, "slipper people" would continue to patronize and steal from that location. But, you know "slipper people."
So several years ago, during the "Arab Spring" the Syrian opposition (a group made up of about of as many groups as the average Democratic convention) decided that it would be a good thing to beg for guns and tanks from the West and make their pitch for an overthrow of the Assad regime. Of course, as is natural, Assad wanted to protect his pitch and started getting rough against those who wanted to overthrow him. Having sanctions placed against him by the West he started to improvise by dropping locally made bombs from helicopters, being a general bad-ass, and trying to destroy those who wanted to destroy him and his regime. And the West, being rather silly and short-sighted, and loving rebels (except in the case of the Confederates during the Civil War and the rebels in the Hungarian Revolution of the 1950s) decided to throw its support to the rebels despite what the rebels wanted or believed.
The result was that the West ended up supporting a bunch of Islamic thugs and helped to spread the Isis ideology. After all, they were against the thug Assad and that was good. Until the Islamic militias and Isis got control of areas and the West found out that it was supporting thugs that were worse than Assad. Christians, Kurds (no great group of tolerance), Yazhidis and Muslim minorities have been killed and oppressed by the groups that the West has supported. Sites of historical Christian importance have been destroyed by the Islamic militias, whether by Isis or other groups. Syrians have been enslaved by the Mohammedan militias, whether Isis or not. Syrians have been killed by the Assad regime, and killed in spades by the Mohammedan militias.
The West, while trying to remove the slow growing cancer of the Assad regime, has, in fact, lanced the tumor and allowed the poison to spread and metastasize into a more aggressive and faster spreading cancer.
This writer, was, at first an anti-Assad thinker. But soon, after the State Department decided to support every damn "rebel" with an AK-47 saying that he was against Assad despite the fact that he was a Mohammedan supremacist of the worst sort, decided that Assad was a jerk and a creep, but he wasn't as much a jerk or creep as many of the groups who wanted to take down his regime. Consider the fact that under the regimes of the Assads Christians, Yazhidis and minority Muslims were integrated into the larger Syrian society. Under the areas controlled by the Mohammedan rebels they are neither accepted nor protected. They are oppressed and persecuted.
To paraphrase a saying from the 1950s, "Assad may be a jerk, But he's a better jerk than the alternative."
Liberty and freedom are great and wonderful things to the West (at least until recently with all the SJW and "hate speech" nonsense), but one has to ask the question, "The freedom and liberty to do what? Be Nazis? Be Islamic supremacists? The right to oppress the other?" At worst Assad is a fascist of the Franco sort. His enemies are Mohammedan Nazis. What we are seeing in Syria is a Middle Eastern version of the Spanish Civil War, and for once, the Russians may be on the right side.

You Thinkin' For Me?
For a lot of years a lot of feminists have been telling men that their idea of beauty was just all damn wrong. They have bitched that the cultural idea of beauty was based on male dominance and such nonsense, and that regular features were just too outre' to be believed in real life. And they always brought up the Barbie doll as an example of what men wanted and what women weren't.
Well, to put a point on it, feminists are stupid, very stupid and foolish and destructive in this regard. Most of that crowd are overweight and/or lesbianish who would love nothing more to live in a crazy land of women and cats where men only appear to fix their roofs and plumbing.
Mattel has recently released three new model Barbies. There is the regular Barbie that has been known for over fifty years, the tall Barbie, the short Barbie and the full figured Barbie. Some people have called the full-figured Barbie the Wal-Mart Barbie. Well, good for Mattel. This writer hopes that they make a lot of money, but he thinks that the full-figured Barbie will be the slowest seller.
Now here's the deal. No man or boy that your faithful correspondent has known has ever said that his ideal woman was a Barbie woman. In fact, they hardly know Barbie. They do like seeing and or being with pretty or beautiful women with nice figures. But what they think beautiful and nice figured is subjective. They, do not think that Gravel Gertie is a beauty. They might like Gravel Gertie. They may love Gravel Gertie. They may marry Gravel Gertie and have a passel of Gravelettes. But they don't think that GG is a Miss Universe.
And here comes the point, in short. Who is it to tell you what you think is beautiful? No one has that right except you. If you think that Olivia Wilde or Catherine Zeta-Jones are great beauties, no one, feminist, or scholar of popular culture, has not right to tell you that those two women aren't beautiful to you and that Lena Dunham and Amy Shumer should be your beauties that person is an idiot and fascist.; There is a sense of aesthetics that goes on inside one's noggin that should be, and this writer means really SHOULD BE and WILL BE, that is one's own and not a potential victim of angry women who can't get a job because they majored womens' studies at the local UC instead of engineering, teaching or pottery.
This writer knows what he thinks of as a beautiful woman and no amount of pounding upon him by a bunch of cat lovers and the media will make him change his mind.

Are You Going to Believe Your Lying Eyes Or Me?
Have you ever heard Muslims talk about Christianity and wondered what kind of loco weed they had been smoking? They talk about our Faith with a sense of confidence as if they had read the Bible annually despite the fact that they've never touched the Good Book. And they say the silliest things. They say that the Trinity that Christians believe in is made up of God the Father, God the Son and the Virgin Mary. Actually they don't say those exact words. They say that Christians believe that believe the Trinity is made up of Allah, Jesus and Mary. They say that Jesus was never crucified and that right before the crucifixion Jesus pulled a great sleight of hand by somehow substituting Judas or some such body onto the cross moments before the nails were driven in. They do say that Our Lord was a prophet, but a prophet on a lower level than the Arabian merchant known as Mohammed.
Now, admittedly, most Christians (and non-Mohammedans and a lot of Mohammedans) don't know much about the Koran. But when Christians argue against Islam they use what amount of the Koran they do know, along with the various hadiths. Mohammedans don't use the New Testament to argue against Christianity. They use a version of Christianity outlined in Mohammed's rantings known as the Koran. So what Mohammedans know about Christianity is based on what Mohammed knew about Christianity. And that wasn't much.
Let us, for the sake of argument, make an analogy with the Star Wars movies. Christians are people who have seen the Star Wars movies. Mohammedans are people who have never seen the movies basing their knowledge of the films on a report by a man who never saw the movies. Their original source is a man who never ran across an orthodox Christian in his life. His only contact with anything that could be remotely called Christian was small pockets of gnostic and heretical Christians. In other words, he had based his knowledge of Star Wars on a group of people who saw Jar-Jar Binks as the movies. Then, after meeting with this crowd of Binksists he leaves them and never mentions Star Wars for some twenty-odd years. And after that period of time he starts writing his visions and mentions Star Wars and how he knows the films very well. This is what Mohammedans base their knowledge of our Faith upon. They don't care about what you believe. They care about what Mohammed believed that you believe. They know much less about Christianity than than the most hard-line Orthodox Jew does about Christianity or the most uneducated true Christian does about Temple Judaism. The Old Testament is part of the Christian Bible. Orthodox Jews know what Christians truly think, in faith, because they try to protect themselves from what they consider blood libel. Mohammedans only read the Koran: the rantings of an Arab trader, who lived off a wealthy older woman for years, with a taste for young flesh and violence.
Now, here's the thing. When one is faced with a Mohammedan who is trying to explain to a Christian what that Christian believes, the Christian has to keep in mind that one is being faced with a person who one is faced with a person who is reading Cliff's Notes written by a guy who has never read the books.
And to refute the Mohammed nonsense all one has to do is ask the Mohammedan is where Mohammed received his authority to be a prophet. The Islamic will reply that it's predicted in the Old Testament (which it isn't). And then all one has to say to our friendly Omar is, but you, and the Koran, say that the Old Testament is corrupt. In other words, your prophet's authority is based on a text that your prophet said was corrupt. Maybe you should rethink your religious beliefs.
