A very interesting interview : The Irish Holocaust started in 1845 .... So what had happend two
years earlier in 1843 ? Look below :

This was on June 18, the day after the contract assassination of
Democratic Senator Clementa C. Pinckney who apparently was quite
popular, and in case Pinckney  would run for Governor had a real
chance of winning and becoming Governor of South Carolina.

Now in the upper echelons of politics, the `battle' has diverted
into a looney discussion about the Confederate Flag, as on
Saturday the Dean of Washington National Cathedral announced
he wants the flag removed from `his Church' :


The Washington National Cathedral is looking to remove two stained glass windows displaying the Confederate flag.
Washington National Cathedral's Dean Wants to Remove Stained Glass Windows Showing Confederate Flag

  "For more than 60 years, two stained glass windows at the Washington
   National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. have displayed the image of the
   Confederate flag. Now, the churches dean is advocating to have the
   windows removed.
   
   The windows -- showing Confederate generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall
   Jackson -- were installed in 1953.
   
   According to the dean of the Cathedral, Rev. Gary Hall, the churches
   leadership in the 1950s thought the windows "would foster
   reconciliation between parts of the nation that had been divided by the
   Civil War," he said in a statement.

   The windows are among the more than 200 in the church, according to
   Cathedral spokesman Kevin Eckstrom, and at first, Hall didn't realize
   they were there.
   
   But last week -- after nine people were killed inside an African
   Methodist Episcopal church by a suspect who is believed to have posted
   a racist manifesto online -- Hall started to get questions about the
   windows and took a closer look, Eckstrom told ABC News today.
   
   Each window has an engraved inscription, Eckstrom said -- the
   inscription on Lee's window describes Lee as a man "without fear and
   without reproach."
   
   "We're not so sure that in 2015 we can say that Robert E. Lee and the
   cause that he fought for was without reproach," Eckstrom said.
   
   "Stained glass windows exist to tell a story," Eckstrom said. They are
   "intended to let the light of God into the assembled worshipers. And
   right now, with these windows, that light is being filtered through a
   symbol that we all know is associated with racial supremacy, violence
   and racism. And the dean doesn't feel like at this point ... that those
   windows should continue to be a part of the Cathedral's life."
   
   Hall's statement Thursday said: "While the impetus behind the windows'
   installation was a good and noble one at the time, the Cathedral has
   changed, and so has the America it seeks to represent. There is no
   place for the Confederate battle flag in the iconography of the
   nation's most visible faith community."
   
   "It's not just about the flag," Eckstrom said. "It's not just about the
   windows or the inscriptions. It's ... the message that all of it sends
   together. ... It's about what kind of history we're going to tell."
   
   "There's a difference between observing history and celebrating it,"
   Eckstrom added. "And the dean does not feel this is a part of our
   history that's worth celebrating."
   
   According to the dean's statement, a group will meet to discuss the
   future of the Jackson and Lee windows. For now, the Cathedral will put
   up a display next to the windows to explain their historical context.
   
   The dean also plans to address the windows in his sermon Sunday."
   
Well I have news for you, The Dean of Washington National Cathedral
will be removed instead.

I was born and raised a Catholic. I never knew why Protestants would be
the assumed enemy. When a priest of the African Methodist Episcopal
Church which i would describe as the black protestant church, gets
assassinated people should be interested why Dylan Roof drove all the
way upto this particular Church and waited more than half a day inside
that Church. The research from Fritz Springmeier and Juri Lina shows
evidence  that the Protestant (Black in this case) Church is controlled
in secret by Freemasonry. In turn The Jewish Order of B'nai B'rith is
the top-ranking order within Freemasonry as of 13 October 1843. So yes
every White man who is a Catholic should be concerned with how the Jews
are again trying to remove and alter history, this time the Southern
Confederate Flag. It would not surprise me that Dylan Roof in the mean
time has become the biggest folk hero ever since the times of Ned Kelly

THE CONFEDERATE FLAG NEEDS TO BE RAISED – NOT LOWERED
By Chuck Baldwin  Published: Thursday, July 9, 2015
http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2015/07/the-confederate-flag-learn-the-truth-3182918.html
http://chuckbaldwinlive.com/Articles/tabid/109/ID/3336/The-Confederate-Flag-Needs-To-Be-Raised-Not-Lowered.aspx

  "Ladies and gentlemen, I submit that what we see happening in the
   United States today is an apt illustration of why the Confederate flag
   was raised in the first place. What we see materializing before our
   very eyes is tyranny: tyranny over the freedom of expression, tyranny
   over the freedom of association, tyranny over the freedom of speech,
   and tyranny over the freedom of conscience.
   
   In 1864, Confederate General Patrick Cleburne warned his fellow
   southerners of the historical consequences should the South lose their
   war for independence. He was truly a prophet. He said if the South
   lost, "It means that the history of this heroic struggle will be
   written by the enemy. That our youth will be trained by Northern school
   teachers; will learn from Northern school books their version of the
   war; will be impressed by all of the influences of History and
   Education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed
   veterans as fit subjects for derision." No truer words were ever spoken.
   
   History revisionists flooded America's public schools with Northern
   propaganda about the people who attempted to secede from the United
   States, characterizing them as racists, extremists, radicals,
   hatemongers, traitors, etc. You know, the same way that people in our
   federal government and news media attempt to characterize Christians,
   patriots, war veterans, constitutionalists, et al. today.
   
   Folks, please understand that the only people in 1861 who believed that
   states did NOT have the right to secede were Abraham Lincoln and his
   radical Republicans. To say that southern states did not have the right
   to secede from the United States is to say that the thirteen colonies
   did not have the right to secede from Great Britain. One cannot be
   right and the other wrong. If one is right, both are right. How can we
   celebrate our Declaration of Independence in 1776 and then turn around
   and condemn the Declaration of Independence of the Confederacy in 1861?
   Talk about hypocrisy!
   
   In fact, southern states were not the only states that talked about
   secession. After the southern states seceded, the State of Maryland
   fully intended to join them. In September of 1861, Lincoln sent federal
   troops to the State capital and seized the legislature by force in
   order to prevent them from voting. Federal provost marshals stood guard
   at the polls and arrested Democrats and anyone else who believed in
   secession. A special furlough was granted to Maryland troops so they
   could go home and vote against secession. Judges who tried to inquire
   into the phony elections were arrested and thrown into military
   prisons. There is your great "emancipator," folks.
   
   And before the South seceded, several northern states had also
   threatened secession. Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island had
   threatened secession as far back as James Madison's administration. In
   addition, the states of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and
   Delaware were threatening secession during the first half of the
   nineteenth century–long before the southern states even considered such
   a thing.
   
   People say constantly that Lincoln "saved" the Union. Lincoln didn't
   save the Union; he subjugated the Union. There is a huge difference. A
   union that is not voluntary is not a union. Does a man have a right to
   force a woman to marry him or to force a woman to stay married to him?
   In the eyes of God, a union of husband and wife is far superior to a
   union of states. If God recognizes the right of husbands and wives to
   separate (and He does), to try and suggest that states do not have the
   right to lawfully (under Natural and divine right) separate is the most
   preposterous proposition imaginable.
   
   People say that Lincoln freed the slaves. Lincoln did NOT free a single
   slave. But what he did do was enslave free men. His so-called
   Emancipation Proclamation had NO AUTHORITY in the southern states, as
   they had separated into another country. Imagine a President today
   signing a proclamation to free folks in, say, China or Saudi Arabia. He
   would be laughed out of Washington. Lincoln had no authority over the
   Confederate States of America, and he knew it.
   
   Do you not find it interesting that Lincoln's proclamation did NOT free
   a single slave in the United States, the country in which he DID have
   authority? That's right. The Emancipation Proclamation deliberately
   ignored slavery in the North. Do you not realize that when Lincoln
   signed his proclamation, there were over 300,000 slaveholders who were
   fighting in the Union army? Check it out.
   
   One of those northern slaveholders was General (and later U.S.
   President) Ulysses S. Grant. In fact, he maintained possession of his
   slaves even after the War Between the States concluded. Recall that his
   counterpart, Confederate General Robert E. Lee, freed his slaves BEFORE
   hostilities between North and South ever broke out. When asked why he
   refused to free his slaves, Grant said, "Good help is hard to find
   these days."
   
   The institution of slavery did not end until the 13th Amendment was
   ratified on December 6, 1865.
   
   Speaking of the 13th Amendment, did you know that Lincoln authored his
   own 13th Amendment? It is the only amendment to the Constitution ever
   proposed by a sitting U.S. President. Here is Lincoln's proposed
   amendment: "No amendment shall be made to the Constitution which will
   authorize or give Congress the power to abolish or interfere within any
   state with the domestic institutions thereof, including that a person's
   held to labor or service by laws of said State."
   
  You read it right. Lincoln proposed an amendment to the U.S.
   Constitution PRESERVING the institution of slavery. This proposed
   amendment was written in March of 1861, a month BEFORE the shots were
   fired at Fort Sumter, South Carolina.
   
   The State of South Carolina was particularly incensed at the tariffs
   enacted in 1828 and 1832. The Tariff of 1828 was disdainfully called,
   "The Tariff of Abominations" by the State of South Carolina.
   Accordingly, the South Carolina legislature declared that the tariffs
   of 1828 and 1832 were "unauthorized by the constitution of the United
   States."
   
   Think, folks: why would the southern states secede from the Union over
   slavery when President Abraham Lincoln had offered an amendment to the
   Constitution guaranteeing the PRESERVATION of slavery? That makes no
   sense. If the issue was predominantly slavery, all the South needed to
   do was to go along with Lincoln, and his proposed 13th Amendment would
   have permanently preserved slavery among the southern (and northern)
   states. Does that sound like a body of people who were willing to lose
   hundreds of thousands of men on the battlefield over saving slavery?
   What nonsense!
   
   The problem was Lincoln wanted the southern states to pay the Union a
   40% tariff on their exports. The South considered this outrageous and
   refused to pay. By the time hostilities broke out in 1861, the South
   was paying up to, and perhaps exceeding, 70% of the nation's taxes.
   Before the war, the South was very prosperous and productive. And
   Washington, D.C., kept raising the taxes and tariffs on them. You know,
   the way Washington, D.C., keeps raising the taxes on prosperous
   American citizens today.
   
   This is much the same story of the way the colonies refused to pay the
   demanded tariffs of the British Crown–albeit the tariffs of the Crown
   were MUCH lower than those demanded by Lincoln. Lincoln's proposed 13th
   Amendment was an attempt to entice the South into paying the tariffs by
   being willing to permanently ensconce the institution of slavery into
   the Constitution. AND THE SOUTH SAID NO!
   
   In addition, the Congressional Record of the United States forever
   obliterates the notion that the North fought the War Between the States
   over slavery. Read it for yourself. This resolution was passed
   unanimously in the U.S. Congress on July 23, 1861, "The War is waged by
   the government of the United States not in the spirit of conquest or
   subjugation, nor for the purpose of overthrowing or interfering with
   the rights or institutions of the states, but to defend and protect the
   Union."
   
   What could be clearer? The U.S. Congress declared that the war against
   the South was NOT an attempt to overthrow or interfere with the
   "institutions" of the states, but to keep the Union intact (by force).
   The "institutions" implied most certainly included the institution of
   slavery.
   
   Hear it loudly and clearly: Lincoln's war against the South had NOTHING
   to do with ending slavery–so said the U.S. Congress by unanimous
   resolution in 1861.
   
   Abraham Lincoln, himself, said it was NEVER his intention to end the
   institution of slavery. In a letter to Alexander Stevens who later
   became the Vice President of the Confederacy, Lincoln wrote this, "Do
   the people of the South really entertain fears that a Republican
   administration would directly, or indirectly, interfere with their
   slaves, or with them, about their slaves? If they do, I wish to assure
   you, as once a friend, and still, I hope, not an enemy, that there is
   no cause for such fears. The South would be in no more danger in this
   respect than it was in the days of Washington."
   
   Again, what could be clearer? Lincoln, himself, said the southern
   states had nothing to fear from him in regard to abolishing slavery.
   
   Hear Lincoln again: "If I could save the Union without freeing any
   slave I would do it." He also said, "I have no purpose, directly or
   indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the states
   where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so and I have
   no inclination to do so."
   
   The idea that the Confederate flag (actually there were five of them)
   stood for racism, bigotry, hatred, and slavery is just so much hogwash.
   In fact, if one truly wants to discover who the racist was in 1861,
   just read the words of Mr. Lincoln.
   
   On August 14, 1862, Abraham Lincoln invited a group of black people to
   the White House. In his address to them, he told them of his plans to
   colonize them all back to Africa. Listen to what he told these folks:
   "Why should the people of your race be colonized and where? Why should
   they leave this country? This is, perhaps, the first question for
   proper consideration. You and we are different races. We have between
   us a broader difference than exists between almost any other two races.
   Whether it is right or wrong I need not discuss; but this physical
   difference is a great disadvantage to us both, as I think. Your race
   suffers very greatly, many of them, by living among us, while ours
   suffers from your presence. In a word, we suffer on each side. If this
   is admitted, it affords a reason, at least, why we should be separated.
   You here are freemen, I suppose? Perhaps you have been long free, or
   all your lives. Your race is suffering, in my judgment, the greatest
   wrong inflicted on any people. But even when you cease to be slaves,
   you are yet far removed from being placed on an equality with the white
   race. The aspiration of men is to enjoy equality with the best when
   free, but on this broad continent not a single man of your race is made
   the equal of a single man of our race."
   
   Did you hear what Lincoln said? He said that black people would NEVER
   be equal with white people–even if they all obtained their freedom from
   slavery. If that isn't a racist statement, I've never heard one.
   
   Lincoln's statement above is not isolated. In Charleston, Illinois, in
   1858, Lincoln said in a speech, "I am not, nor have ever been, in favor
   of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the
   white and black races. I am not nor ever have been in favor of making
   voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor
   to intermarry with white people; I will say in addition to this that
   there is a physical difference between the white and black races which
   I believe will forever forbid the two races from living together on
   social or political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live,
   while they do remain together there must be the position of superior
   and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the
   superior position assigned to the white."
   
   Ladies and gentlemen, in his own words, Abraham Lincoln declared
   himself to be a white supremacist. Why don't our history books and news
   media tell the American people the truth about Lincoln and about the
   War Between the States?
   
   It's simple: if people would study the meanings and history of the
   flag, symbols, and statues of the Confederacy and Confederate leaders,
   they might begin to awaken to the tyrannical policies of Washington,
   D.C., that precluded southern independence–policies that have only
   escalated since the defeat of the Confederacy–and they might have a
   notion to again resist.
   
   By the time Lincoln penned his Emancipation Proclamation, the war had
   been going on for two years without resolution. In fact, the North was
   losing the war. Even though the South was outmanned and out-equipped,
   the genius of the southern generals and fighting acumen of the southern
   men had put the northern armies on their heels. Many people in the
   North never saw the legitimacy of Lincoln's war in the first place, and
   many of them actively campaigned against it. These people were
   affectionately called "Copperheads" by people in the South.
   
   I urge you to watch Ron Maxwell's accurate depiction of those people in
   the North who favored the southern cause as depicted in his motion
   picture, "Copperhead." For that matter, I consider his movie, "Gods And
   Generals" to be the greatest "Civil War" movie ever made. It is the
   most accurate and fairest depiction of Confederate General Thomas
   Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson ever produced. In my opinion, actor
   Stephen Lang should have received an Oscar for his performance as
   General Jackson. But, can you imagine?
   
   That's another thing: the war fought from 1861 to 1865 was NOT a "civil
   war." Civil war suggests two sides fighting for control of the same
   capital and country. The South didn't want to take over Washington,
   D.C., no more than their forebears wanted to take over London. They
   wanted to separate from Washington, D.C., just as America's Founding
   Fathers wanted to separate from Great Britain. The proper names for
   that war are either, "The War Between the States" or, "The War of
   Southern Independence," or, more fittingly, "The War of Northern
   Aggression."
   
   Had the South wanted to take over Washington, D.C., they could have
   done so with the very first battle of the "Civil War." When Lincoln
   ordered federal troops to invade Virginia in the First Battle of
   Manassas (called the "First Battle of Bull Run" by the North),
   Confederate troops sent the Yankees running for their lives all the way
   back to Washington. Had the Confederates pursued them, they could have
   easily taken the city of Washington, D.C., seized Abraham Lincoln, and
   perhaps ended the war before it really began. But General Beauregard
   and the others had no intention of fighting an aggressive war against
   the North. They merely wanted to defend the South against the
   aggression of the North.
   
   In order to rally people in the North, Lincoln needed a moral crusade.
   That's what his Emancipation Proclamation was all about. This explains
   why his proclamation was not penned until 1863, after two years of
   fruitless fighting. He was counting on people in the North to stop
   resisting his war against the South if they thought it was some kind of
   "holy" war. Plus, Lincoln was hoping that his proclamation would incite
   blacks in the South to insurrect against southern whites. If thousands
   of blacks would begin to wage war against their white neighbors, the
   fighting men of the southern armies would have to leave the
   battlefields and go home to defend their families. THIS NEVER HAPPENED.
   
   Not only did blacks not riot against the whites of the south, many
   black men volunteered to fight alongside their white friends and
   neighbors in the Confederate army. Unlike the blacks in the North, who
   were conscripted by Lincoln and forced to fight in segregated units,
   thousands of blacks in the South fought of their own free will in a
   fully-integrated southern army. I bet your history book never told you
   about that.
   
   If one wants to ban a racist flag, one would have to ban the British
   flag. Ships bearing the Union Jack shipped over 5 million African
   slaves to countries all over the world, including the British colonies
   in North America. Other slave ships flew the Dutch flag and the
   Portuguese flag and the Spanish flag, and, yes, the U.S. flag. But not
   one single slave ship flew the Confederate flag. NOT ONE!
   
   By the time Lincoln launched his war against the southern states,
   slavery was already a dying institution. The entire country, including
   the South, recognized the moral evil of slavery and wanted it to end.
   Only a small fraction of southerners even owned slaves. The slave trade
   had ended in 1808, per the U.S. Constitution, and the practice of
   slavery was quickly dying, too. In another few years, with the advent
   of agricultural machinery, slavery would have ended peacefully–just
   like it had in England. It didn't take a national war and the deaths of
   over a half million men to end slavery in Great Britain. America's
   so-called "Civil War" was absolutely unnecessary. The greed of
   Lincoln's radical Republicans in the North, combined with the cold,
   calloused heart of Lincoln himself is responsible for the tragedy of
   the "Civil War."
   
   And look at what is happening now: in one instant–after one deranged
   young man killed nine black people and who ostensibly photo-shopped a
   picture of himself with a Confederate flag–the entire political and
   media establishments in the country go on an all-out crusade to remove
   all semblances of the Confederacy. The speed in which all of this has
   happened suggests that this was a planned, orchestrated event by the
   Powers That Be (PTB). And is it a mere coincidence that this took place
   at the exact same time that the U.S. Supreme Court decided to legalize
   same-sex marriage? I think not.
   
   The Confederate Battle Flag flies the Saint Andrews cross. Of course,
   Andrew was the first disciple of Jesus Christ, brother of Simon Peter,
   and Christian martyr who was crucified on an X-shaped cross at around
   the age of 90. Andrew is the patron saint of both Russia and Scotland.
   
   In the 1800s, up to 75% of people in the South were either Scotch or
   Scotch-Irish. The Confederate Battle Flag is predicated on the national
   flag of Scotland. It is a symbol of the Christian faith and heritage of
   the Celtic race.
   
   Pastor John Weaver rightly observed, "Even the Confederate States
   motto, 'Deovendickia,' (The Lord is our Vindicator), illustrates the
   sovereignty and the righteousness of God. The Saint Andrews cross is
   also known as the Greek letter CHIA (KEE) and has historically been
   used to represent Jesus Christ. Why do you think people write Merry
   X-mas, just to give you an illustration? The 'X' is the Greek letter
   CHIA and it has been historically used for Christ. Moreover, its
   importance was understood by educated and uneducated people alike. When
   an uneducated man, one that could not write, needed to sign his name
   please tell me what letter he made? An 'X,' why? Because he was saying
   I am taking an oath under God. I am recognizing the sovereignty of God,
   the providence of God and I am pledging my faith. May I tell you the
   Confederate Flag is indeed a Christian flag because it has the cross of
   Saint Andrew, who was a Christian martyr, and the letter 'X' has always
   been used to represent Christ, and to attack the flag is to deny the
   sovereignty, the majesty, and the might of the Lord Jesus Christ and
   his divine role in our history, culture, and life."
   
   Many of the facts that I reference in this column were included in a
   message delivered several years ago by Pastor John Weaver. I want to
   thank John for preaching such a powerful and needed message. Read or
   watch Pastor Weaver's sermon "The Truth About The Confederate Battle
   Flag" here:
   
   The Truth About The Confederate Battle Flag
   
   Combine the current attacks against Biblical and traditional marriage,
   the attacks against all things Confederate, the attacks against all
   things Christian, and the attacks against all things constitutional and
   what we are witnessing is a heightened example of why the Confederate
   Battle Flag was created to begin with. Virtually every act of federal
   usurpation of liberty that we are witnessing today, and have been
   witnessing for much of the twentieth century, is the result of
   Lincoln's war against the South. Truly, we are living in Lincoln's
   America, not Washington and Jefferson's America. Washington and
   Jefferson's America died at Appomattox Court House in 1865.
   
   Instead of lowering the Confederate flag, we should be raising it.

Yankee Doodle grew up in Virginia, and was taught Virginia history, an important part of which is, of course, the founding of the Jamestown Colony in 1607.  Jamestown was the first permanent English colony in America.  (An earlier settlement, the Roanoke Colony, disappeared mysteriously.)  The Pilgrims did not arrive until 1620, and they landed in what is now Massachusetts, a northern state where Harvard, America's first college, produces much of the history for the establishment.   

So, as he grew older, and became aware of wider viewpoints, Yankee Doodle realized that Americans, in general, think the fucking Pilgrims founded America.  They, of course, did not arrive until 1620.  American culture is full of jabber about the Pilgrims, the Mayflower Compact, their Thanksgiving feast, Plymouth Rock, their search for religious freedom, etc., etc., etc.

The American public, in general, knows nothing about Jamestown, except, of course, they know ALL ABOUT Pocahontas, who played a noteworthy role, of course, but she was only one character in the history of the establishment of English settlement in America, firstly at Jamestown. 

Yankee Doodle remembers, sometime about 2005, thinking to himself "the 400th anniversary of Jamestown is coming up soon - in 2007 - and it will be exciting to see all the celebrations, and hear about Jamestown in the national media."  And, what happened?  This very important anniversary in American history came and went with little or no mention in the national media, and certainly no media coverage of any celebrations.

You see, Virginia is a southern state, and it's history - including Jamestown - is to be forgotten.

Now, Yankee Doodle is waiting to see what happens with several upcoming anniversaries.

In Virginia history, the year 1619 is called the "Red Letter Year" because of three significant events that occurred that year:
1 - the first elected government - the House of Burgesses
2 - the first African slaves arrived at the colony
3 - the first significant number of women arrived at the colony

So, although 2007 - the 400th anniversary of the founding of Jamestown - came and went without notice, prepare yourself for the media onslaught the media will have prepared for 2019 and 2020, the 400th anniversaries of, respectively, the arrival of African slaves and women, and the arrival of the Pilgrims.

There is NO WAY IN HELL that these anniversaries will pass unnoticed.
