I have been watching the Mariinsky Theatre production of Don Quixote. Quite the spectacle, with a cast of hundreds. At the Act One finale the juvenile lead, a skinny little Korean, lifts the prima ballerina up over his head, then runs all around the stage like that and off into the wings. The crowd goes wild.
I strive for the happy medium, where I know enough to appreciate it, but not so much that I can find fault.
I’ve been following the Democrat/newspaper outrage about four Muslims being murdered here in Albuquerque. I’m not psychic, but it seemed a reasonable guess that another Muslim was behind it.
Lo!

But then a suspect was caught. CBS News reported Tuesday that “Muhammed Syed, 51, was identified as the ‘primary suspect in the recent murders of Muslim men,’ police said Tuesday, and charged with murdering Aftab Hussein on July 26 and Muhammad Afzaal Hussian on Aug. 1. Detectives connected the two cases using bullet casings found at the two scenes. They are still investigating Syed’s possible involvement in the murders of Naeem Hussain on Aug. 5 and Mohammed Zaher Ahmadi on Nov. 7.”
Syed “appears to have known his victims,” and CAIR revealed that there are “early indications that the alleged killer may have been targeting particular members of the Shia community.” So the killings weren’t “Islamophobia,” but may have been another instance of the Sunni-Shi’ite jihad coming to America.
Yeah, huxley, I don’t buy “racist” or “Islamophobic” motives until a suspect is identified. Even now, Muslims in Albuquerque are denying the Sunni-Shi’ite motive, since at least one of the victims was Sunni. Could be the killer made a mistake.
Violence comes easily to some of Muhammad’s followers.

Wikipedia, of course, has to note that “There is reluctance among some organizations to label events as honor killings to avoid stigmatizing Muslim and Arab cultures.”
There are some specific examples of honor killings at the link.
PA Cat, the Dallas-area father who killed his two teenaged daughters years ago was just convicted of the murders.
Kate– A good thing, too– and he might get some rough justice once he gets to prison.
As the murdering father is entirely unrepentant, he will deserve what he gets.
And this is how we frogs are boiled.

“My issue is more important than all of them, because it’s basically about survival,” he told Motherboard. “When cyber Armageddon hits, and everything goes down, I don’t think anybody’s gonna care about taxes.”

The following comment is only based on my emotions, + [what people who lived through ww2 + after, have taught me about their history]:
Ads tell me- that Ken Burns is going to make a TV show based on World War II, + the Nazi’s ww2 holocaust, titled: “The U.S. and the Holocaust”.
The ads seem to suggest that, [because Hitler + his 1920s + 1930s nazis, saw the racism in the US, + the junk science-like…eugenics theories in the US], that “SOMEHOW” The US, + The US people, “are partly responsible for the Nazi’s holocaust/aka the nazi’s crimes + murders, in ww2.”
That is false. that is a lie.
Granted, granted, I haven’t seen this show yet, but if the show is as I’ve described it, above, then this show is a pile of lies.
My words- The US could not know, and did not know, before ww2 started- the level of hideousness, + ethnic genocide, + crimes + war crimes, killings + murders- that the nazis, + nazi germany were going to do.
Besides, no one can change the past.
My words- if mistakes or miscalculations were made by the US, in ww2 + before, it was not because The US people valued themselves- above the people of Europe, or above the people of anywhere else.
You might as well blame the takeover of transportation in the US by cars, on [not enough coverage being done to promote travel by horses + wagons].
Also, you might as well blame the crimes of the US gangster, John Dillinger, on- “not enough people helped Dillinger in his youth, with poverty + crime problems.”
The only people who could have stopped Hitler and the nazis from starting the WW2, European holocaust, were [Hitler and the nazis].
Blaming anyone else is either a foolish action, or a misinformed action.
Only Hitler and The nazi party are to blame for Hitler and the nazi party.
For more information on this TV show,
PLEASE READ THE PAGE on Ken Burn’s site, about Burn’s show, about the topics of- [the Nazi holocaust], and alsoThe United States, in World war II.
(Ken Burns, In my opinion, has in the past, followed his opinions, + his feelings, rather than doing lots of research for the truth, in doing these semi-documentary…TV shows.
In his TV show, JAZZ, to research about racism done by some people, in the US, in the 1920s + after- Burns went to ONE PERSON, one man, to get his/Ken Burn’s needed [research information].
Burns then used only this information, from this one person, to try + get a true picture of this problem, for Burn’s show.
To get expert information, on an important + sensitive topic like this one, I would want at least 3 or 4 [professional experts] to tell me data about this topic, before I showed other people this data or information, and said- I thought this was, as far as I could tell, [CORRECT and TRUE] information.
Otherwise, you might not get true information, or [as close as we can find], to TRUE information.
