Afghanistan, Dogs, Humans, and the Decline of America and the West.
History in the making is intersectional. You might wonder what dogs have to do with the Covidian 'new normal', with American foreign policy, with humanity and civilisation and their apparent decline here in the West. Maybe nothing. maybe a lot. But, 'Events dear boy, events'. Big and small.
First, Pen Farthing. A former Royal Marine in Afghanistan who set up Nowzad dog rescue, based in Afghanistan. In their own words, how it started:
In November 2006 the men of Kilo Company of 42 Commando Royal Marines arrived in the war torn town of 'Now Zad' in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. Their mission; provide stability for the local people during a period of ever decreasing security.
The Royal Marines soon realised that it wasn’t only the local people that needed their help. Many of the stray dogs that roamed the town of ‘Now Zad’ now had a guardian for the first time in their lives; in the form of Royal Marine Sergeant 'Pen' Farthing.
Breaking up an organised dog fight that was taking place right outside their remote compound, Pen never realised that one of those fighting dogs would then befriend him.
The Royal Marine Sergeant couldn’t say no to those big sad eyes and the now former fighting dog became the Sergeant's battle buddy. The dog received his first ever name – "Nowzad"
How it went:
We have reunited over 1600 soldiers with the dogs and cats that they rescue and bond with on the front lines in Afghanistan and we continue to be there for the brave men and women who show compassion to animals during their deployment.
Nowzad manages a dog shelter currently looking after over 140 dogs (most available for adoption!!) along with a cat shelter (over 40 cats and most available for adoption!) supported by a modern veterinary clinic staffed by a team of 24 Afghan nationals (including Afghanistan’s first female veterinarians) delivering care and attention to animals in distress.
We have also opened the first ever donkey sanctuary in Afghanistan; a vital facility for the overburdened donkeys worked remorselessly on the streets of Kabul.
How it turned out:
No word on the donkey sanctuary. Let's hope the Taliban are supporters of donkey sanctuaries. I mean, they don't have a glowing record as far as human rights are concerned, especially the human rights of women, but let's hope they are lovers of cute, docile, inoffensive little horsey type creatures, so horribly treated by so many other cruel and ignorant Afghans who think they are nothing more than machines to be worked until they drop dead.
Now there's been a lot of nasty tittle tattle on social media from people aggrieved that Operation Ark and its supporters put 'pets before people'. Well for a start, they're rescue animals, saved from horrific abuse in Afghanistan, and some are actually service animals. They never took the place of people and in fact Pen Farthing was devastated that his Afghan staff could not seek sanctuary with the animals because the American government changed the rules at the last moment before they were due to depart and then the Taliban denied those staff exit. He tried very hard to get them out. But don't let the facts interfere with a good virtue signalling rant, eh. One Twatter user even suggested that Farthing's animals should have been shot on the runway. Hartley-Brewer decried:
I'm a psychopath, because I believe that all lives matter (well, I'll draw the line at flies, mosquitoes, midges and ticks!) and it's never a simple straightforward judgement as to which lives matter 'more'. I would lay down my own life to protect my 'pets' (extended canine family members) and I know that they would do the same for me. I wonder if the oh so virtuous Twatter elite sounding off about 'pets before people' supported the wearing of masks in school, the systematic abuse of children during lockdown and now the killing and harming of innocent children by 'vaccination'? Were they equally vocal in their opposition to such cruelties imposed upon innocent, defenceless children? JHB was very happy to wear a mask. She was happy to get jabbed despite having suffered from Covid early on and therefore effectively having long term, robust, natural immunity. She made it much easier for a fascist government to then insist that children also get masked up and get jabbed. But people who put 'pets before humans' are psychopaths. Period.
Tell me though, who are the real psychopaths? Please stand up. This happened today. Geronimo the Alpaca was dragged, terrified, by Defra officials flanked by police, to his death in the back of a van whilst his loving owner screamed with horror and distress.
So hang on. A veterinary surgeon who was caring for Geronimo the Alpaca, who was working with Nowzad to get human beings left behind in Kabul by the MOD out of the country to safety, learns today that Defra have gone in strong-armed with the help of the dedicated officers of the Thin Blue Muzzle and have dragged his terrified charge needlessly to his death. Remind us again who the psychos are Julia.
Other 'pets' rescued in Afghanistan, this time thanks to a big-hearted American woman called Charlotte Maxwell-Jones, who founded Kabul Small Animal Rescue, were not so lucky, including Charlotte herself, who remains trapped in Afghanistan, after refusing to dispose of the disabled rescue puppy she was carrying in order to be allowed onto the plane. The Biden regime Dept. of Defense decreed that none of her 250 dogs (including 51 former service dogs) would be allowed transit out of Kabul airport. The US military instead set them free to roam the streets of Kabul, where they will no doubt be rounded up by the Taliban and shot, or even worse, tortured and maimed. Some of these dogs fought alongside their human companions against the Taliban. They will be shown no mercy. The US left its own people in Afghanistan and it abandoned its own faithful K9 warriors, as well as defenceless rescue animals. Biden also left behind billions in military hardware so the Taliban must be well pleased. Biden is an utter disgrace to America and to human decency. He is the very embodiment of the decline of America and the decline of western civilisation and democracy in general. He is in fact destroying the US, deliberately in my view, and if Harris takes over, she will be even worse.
Then there's Australia, now effectively a full on Communist-fascist dictatorship, where movement across state borders is banned and the hapless residents are not permitted to leave the prison continent. Rather like the early days then. The authorities there have apparently abandoned Western values and compassion for animals too. Recently, Bourke Shire Council, in New South Wales, rather than allowing rescuers to travel to pick up pound dogs, decided to shoot dead the 15 dogs (including puppies) so as to comply with Covid restrictions. They executed 15 innocent animals supposedly to stop people spreading a bad cold. The state and federal governments of Australia are also destroying the economy, rolling out a mandatory bio-weapon, destroying people's businesses, imprisoning people in their homes, causing widespread mental anguish, preventing people from seeing their families and friends, and shooting protestors with rubber bullets, all to supposedly 'protect' people from a nasty cold virus.
Apparently, when the Nazis rounded up the Jews, they inisted that they euthanized their pets before being transported to the 'resettlement camps'. So maybe when the Covid Nazis come to take us unvaccinated away to the 'quarantine centres', they'll also kill our cats and dogs too. Humans' symbiotic evolutionary relationship with canines goes back 40,000 years, into the depths of the last Ice Age, predating any civilisation, let alone Western Civilisation. So if the West does fall, I would not expect that relationship to fall with it. Those few scattered bands of unjabbed humans, ekeing out a meagre existence on the edge of the mega cities full of jabbed, genetically altered and compliant bipedal drones, will probably still have dogs as their companions and they will recount tales around the fireside (in the depths of the new Little Ice Age) of how the Biden Demon cast the faithful K9 warriors into the hands of the barbaric Taliban hordes - and then the Chinese took over the country and ate all the remaining dogs.
