THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

FINGERPRINTS | 2000-04-08

A study shows that women with hands that are shaped more like men's hands are more often lesbian than those who don't have this feature. This is statistical CORRELATION. This does NOT mean that ALL women with man-like hands are lesbians. It means that a few MORE of them are.

We have the same sort of general correlations with IQ. Height CORRELATES with IQ. That is, the average tall man is more intelligent than the average small man. But Napolean was smarter than almost anybody. Health also CORRELATES with IQ. People with better brains TEND to have better health. But the greatest expert on cosmology -- the physical nature of the universe -- is confined to a wheel chair.

What really convinced me that this lesbian study was valid was that a social scientist declared it was "simplistic." Just about every time a liberal social scientist says something is "simplistic" it turns out to be right. It turns out that common sense is right, and the liberal social scientist can't stand that. Which is why they're always wrong.

Lesbianism is a male characteristic in a woman. So are male-like hands. It makes sense they would CORRELATE. Naturally, a liberal social scientist has to say that any study which bears out common sense can't be right.

Which is another way of saying that if common sense is right, leftism is wrong.

WHEN ISRAELIS AND PALESTINIANS MIX IT UP, MY CONCERN IS US, NOT THEM | 2003-05-24

I do have some sympathy with the Palestinians. See September 13, 2001 - MY ARAB SYMPATHIES.

I hate terrorism, so the death of Israeli civilians is certainly not welcome to me.

But as I pointed out in the most recent WhitakerOnline WorldView, May 10, 2003 -- I'm Too Bigoted to be Anti-Semitic, what is important to me is neither Israelis nor Palestinians.

The political left is the great enemy of my people.

The political left increases the number of murders of my own people here with a pro-criminal policy. Leftism is the fatal disease of my own country. If you help the left here, you are a criminal and a terrorist. No one seems to mind that terrorism at all.

Israel wants to preserve Jewish identity, but the same people who fund Israel are dedicated to the complete destruction of my identity. Liberal Jews are Boasian Jews. They consider Jews to be a minority group, and they see all minority groups as joined in a common war against white people.

Leftism demands the end of white people and of America. When it comes to Israel liberal Jews are outraged at the idea that a peace settlement would allow five million Palestinians to return to the land in modern Israel that was taken from them. But the same big-money contributors who want to preserve the Jewish identity of Israel demand that America's borders be opened up to the third world.

Liberals want third world immigration to pour into EVERY white majority country.

Liberals demand that third world immigration pour ONLY into white countries.

Jewish Liberals want two things

1) The preservation of Jewish identity in Israeli;

2) The destruction of all white gentile identity.

So if I do not get all upset about terrorism in Israel, it is because terrorism there reduces terrorism here.

WE DON'T OWE THE IRAQIS OR THE ISRAELIS A DAMNED THING | 2002-09-21

First we hear the Administration arguing that we need to go into Iraq because Saddam Hussein is developing weapons of mass destruction.

But, after an impassioned talk about the immediate danger of the mass murder of Americans by Saddam, we then get a lecture about what we owe Iraq. After invading Iraq to remove the clear and present danger Saddam Hussein poses, our troops have to stay there until we give Iraq a stable democracy.

Nobody asks what one has to do with the other. Why do we owe Iraq a democracy in return for their threatening to murder us? As always, you will only see that question asked here.

"The road to peace in the Middle East peace lies through Baghdad." When I heard that said, my ears pricked up. "Middle East peace," when the media or respectable conservatives use the term, always means peace for Israel.

I do not want American troops dying for Israel. I do not want American troops staying in Iraq to make the world safe for Israel.

I brought up the danger of mass terrorism long before anybody else was concerned about it. See November 21, 1998 - SUPERTERRORISM, repeated September 11, 2001. But I am also very, very watchful about anybody using terrorism as an excuse to get Israeli lobby support.

If the objective is to destroy the Iraqi threat of weapons of mass destruction, that is one argument for invasion that has a clear objective. But the second they start talking about "our responsibility in Iraq," I say forget it. The only reason Bush says we have for a military interest in Iraq is because they are a threat to our lives.

Everybody but me seems to agree that, because they threatened our lives, we owe the Iraqis a stable government and a democracy.

It should be a warning to you that this is the only place you will find any objection to that nonsense.

MAKING THE WORLD SAFE FOR DEMOCRACY | 2005-05-07

Air Force cadets are being trained to enter into combat to bring "democracy" to the unenlightened nations. Of course, don't expect them to be allowed to practice it at home.

You see, just because 90% of the student body is Christian, that doesn't mean that the 0.275% who have some sort of minor complaint about that shouldn't be allowed to overrule them.

The beautiful chapel at the Academy is the "most recognizable" building on campus, which is another grave cause for concern. You see, the main floor is given to the Protestants, with only 60% of the cadet population. The Catholics have to settle for a downstairs room, coming in at only 30%. The Jews get a synagogue at 1%, and the Muslims have a prayer room.

The "Others" get rooms as well.

It is all sooooooo unfair!

It is all sooooooo confusing!

Our ancestors would have understood why the chapel is the "most recognizable" building on campus. They built it that way. They understood that the military was meant to serve a higher purpose. It was meant to serve and protect a workable and recognizable order based on eternal principles.

They sure were a bunch of hate filled bigots.
