THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

WINNING THE WAR AND WINNING THE PEACE | 2010-12-03

In June, 1941, Germany invaded the USSR. The Red Army simply collapsed in front of them. Stalin himself took days to recover enough to take charge. The Blitzkrieg forced the Soviets out of Moscow a thousand miles inside the USSSR.

All was panic.

But in July of 1941 when all the news was clearly about the end of the USSR, soon to be under the heel of the most anti-Communist group that ever lived, the Soviets appointed a committee that anywhere else would have seemed unbelievable.

A group was assigned to work out what the USSR would later demand at Yalta.

At the time any other government would have considered this insane. But for the Soviets, the war in the headlines was not The War. It was a PHASE of their class struggle.

Stalin later told Roosevelt that the war against the kulaks had been nastier and harder than the war against the Germans.

Logic told the Reds that this German phase of the war could end three general ways: 1) Total defeat, for which they were preparing a last stand in Siberia, and which, if they lost, would be continued by the Communist Party in other lands; 2) some kind of Brest-Litovsk negotiated peace; or 3) Victory.

So they ignored the newspapers and set up a committee for 3), just as they had prepared for 1) and 2). They were coordinating with their agents in the US and other governments for Yalta while the Germans were rolling over them in the field.

I really appreciated this political savvy when I was part of the Reagan Administration when it took over in 1981. It had not the vaguest idea what it should do once it won.

Among others thing, the Reagan Administration lost the 1982 election by compromising with the Democrats on the tax cuts which ended the recession. They were delayed a year, so their effect didn't hit the economy until after 1982.

Recovery began instantly when the full series of tax cuts began to take effect in 1983. You can see it on the charts.

This is the kind of planning defeatists prevent. They put a thousand times the energy into saying ALL Is Lost that rational people put into "What if we WIN?"

So when I talk about penalizing our enemies by the monetary route, I am not blowing smoke. If I didn't know it before 1981, I know it now: Arguing whether All Is Lost is sick, it is insane. Planning what to do with victory can decide whether that victory will be permanent.

I do not plan to allow you to turn victory into defeat as America is famous for doing: Winning the war and losing the peace.

What I am talking about is not wishful thinking, it is hard planning, so LISTEN.

THE NEW CREATIONISM | 2011-11-30

BoardAd has an uncanny instinct for the exact things that interest me. In the Age of a Trillion Facts, this is quite a talent.

So our editor sent me a link to an article which explains how, for the first time in history, scientists literally created something from nothing:

BoardAd: http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-11-scientists-vacuum.html

I really just want to bring this to your attention, but I have also been trying to find a way to write a coherent article about it.

We used to think of electrons as orbiting the atomic nucleus in exactly the same way as planets orbit suns. Many a good science fiction story was made up of people getting so small they live on the infinitesimal planet orbiting the core of an atom in their fingernail, and then getting smaller and orbiting the core of an atom of THAT fingernail and so on ad infinitum.

But actually electrons do not orbit the atomic core. Electrons pop in and out of EXISTENCE around the core.

So these scientists simply took a vacuum, a totally empty space (DUHH!) and waited for some electrons in that empty space to pop into existence..

And they did.

Where there was nothing, a little patience found something.

This would be Super Front Line News if a Pope or Billy Graham, Jr. simply reported it. But it is merely a url link when scientists do it.

But BoardAd saw what it meant and reported it to me. To me I am more important than the Pope, and someone who can see the marvel here is more important than any Cardinal or Vice President of Billy Graham, Junior Enterprises.

The explanation of this creation of something from nothing is easy for those of use who are used to Whitakerisms"

Our universe is OUR universe.

Those electrons do not pop in and out of THE universe.

They pop in and out of OUR universe.

So where are they between poppings?

The easy answer is that there are parallel universes. But that is the kind of logic that led to the concept that electrons orbiting their core was the same as planets orbiting their sun.

We don't know yet.

And for an Aryan, that is just fine.

A CHRISTMAS APPEAL TO NON-CHRISTIANS | 2004-12-24

Every time Christians try to celebrate Christmas, somebody says:

"I am offended."

You keep telling Christians what should be forbidden in the public schools, in public displays. You tell them they can't say "Merry Christmas," they have to say, "Season's Greetings." Christians are bending over backwards so you won't yell:

"I'm offended!"

Christmas used to be fun. Now we can't relax and celebrate it because one of you is going to suddenly shout:

I'm offended!"

So we all know you are telling us what we can do at Christmas, but you are doing a sloppy job of it. All this uncertainty destroys the joy of Christmas, a time when everybody used to relax and have a good time.

Maybe we could enjoy Christmas again if all of you Modernist Christians, Jews, atheists, Moslems, Hindus - ALL of you - would get together and tell us exactly what we ARE allowed to do at Christmas.

Is "Merry Christmas" allowed at all? Will a teacher be fired for wishing her class a "Merry Christmas" on the grounds of a school that receives any public money?"

Could you give us the EXACT geographical limits in which the name of Christ might be mentioned?

The Ford and Carnegie Foundations could spend tens of millions of dollars hiring thousands of professional liberals to write a tome of regulations on Christmas that is as large as the Federal Income Tax Code.

For example, the highways are paid for by the public. Are cars allowed to ride on those publicly-financed highways carrying the sign of the fish, which everybody knows is a CHRISTIAN symbol?

Does this OFFEND you? Should highways that you pay for with your tax money be used to help offend you this way?

If you are going to dictate, then go ahead and dictate. No more hints, no more sudden bursts of temper and random lawsuits.

We seem to have all agreed that non-Christians have the right to tell Christians what they can do at Christmas.

But with power comes responsibility. You have the power, so you have the responsibility of using it and being clear about it.

Stop acting like spoiled children and being offended at this and at that. Tell Christians, in plain English, what they will be ALLOWED to do.

THE HAMS | 2004-09-04

I have had my radio license for fifty years.

For many years, comercial radio networks have fought to keep down the numbers of frequencies allowed to "ham radio," which means radio amateurs.

One of their arguments is that amateurs shouldn't be using frequencies, just as private citizens shouldn't have guns.

In the Florida hurricane right now, you will hear from time "amateur radio networks report..." As in every emergency, the hams have set up a network and they can communicate with a home generator and nothing else.

The media don't like to talk about ham radio operators in emergencies, just as they don't like to talk about how private gun owners stop looting in more cases than you could count.

But they're all over the country, backing up the ones in Florida. The ARRL is the ham organization, and they can give you plenty of examples of what I am talking about on what ham radio does in emergencies.

My rig's not up, but I'm still helping out a little.

See you later.
