Vernon and Irene Castle
Castle was a stage name: Vernon (2 May 1887 – 15 February 1918) was born William Vernon Blyth in Norwich, Norfolk, England. Irene (7 April 1893 – 25 January 1969) was born Irene Foote in New Rochelle, New York.
Vernon and Irene Castle were a husband-and-wife team of ballroom dancers and dance teachers who appeared on Broadway and in silent films in the early 20th century. They are credited with reviving the popularity of modern dancing. The couple reached the peak of their popularity in Irving Berlin's first Broadway show, Watch Your Step, in which they refined and popularized the 🦊 Foxtrot. They also helped to promote ragtime, jazz rhythms and African-American music for dance. Irene became a fashion icon through her appearances on stage and in early movies, and both Castles were in demand as teachers and writers on dance. After serving with distinction as a pilot in the British Royal Flying Corps during World War I, Vernon died in a plane crash on a flight training base near Fort Worth, Texas, in 1918.
Thanks for a good belly laugh early in the morning.

The browning of America, and its total destruction, a purposeful strategy of Joe Bidet and Champ, created through their willful, criminal, malfeasance in office and their betrayal of their Oath to fear "true faith and allegiance" to the Constitution.
[IsraelTimes] An Egyptian military court upholds life sentences for 32 people accused of plotting to kill President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi and a former Saudi crown prince, their lawyer says.
The court "decided to reject all appeals" and uphold the verdict for all but two defendants, whose sentences were reduced to 15 years, Khaled al-Masry writes on Facebook.
A life sentence in Egypt is capped at 25 years’ imprisonment.
The defendants were charged with setting up "terrorist cells" that committed crimes including planning to assassinate Sissi and Saudi Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century... ’s former crown prince and interior minister, Mohammed bin Nayef.
Excerpts from a public prosecutor’s investigation in 2016 published in local media revealed the defendants were plotting to assassinate Sissi and the crown prince while they were on a pilgrimage to the Islamic holy city of Mecca in 2014.
It became locally known as the "Sissi liquidation" case.
[IsraelTimes] Man said to be food delivery worker of Pak origin detained after examination of suspected assassin’s phone, in incident Israel blames on Iran
A second suspect has reportedly been arrested in Cyprus in connection with an alleged plot to assassinate one or more Israeli businesspeople in Cyprus last month.
According to a local Cypriot website, a 27-year-old food delivery worker originally from Pakistain was arrested on Tuesday evening after a police raid on his home. Authorities reportedly seized a number of items from his residence.
Cypriot authorities were previously said to be probing an Azeri national on terror suspicions as part of the alleged plot. That suspect was ordered held in jug another six days during a hearing last week, according to Cypriot reports.
The raid on the second man’s home was said to have been as a result of an examination of the Azeri suspect’s phone records. Caught sexting, was he?
Police said the arrests were being handled as a possible terrorism case but lawyers for the first suspect, who has not been named, have denied any terror links.
The Azeri man was arrested last week on reported suspicion of planning to attack one or more Israeli businesspeople in Cyprus. Israeli authorities have insisted that the man was part of an Iran-backed terror plot aimed against Israelis on the island.
During the hearing in Cyprus last week, officials unsealed documents listing 11 charges the man is being investigated on, including terror activity, attempted murder, belonging to a criminal organization, conspiracy to commit a crime, and being in the country illegally, Israel’s Channel 12 news reported.
According to a local Cypriot report, a gun with a silencer was found by police in the Azeri suspect’s vehicle.
The lawyer for the first suspect denied any Iranian connection to the reported liquidation attempt, Channel 12 reported, and Cypriot authorities also do not believe Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... is behind the plot, according to local media.
Reports have indicated that the plot was directed at Israeli businessman Teddy Sagi, though Israeli authorities have denied he was specifically targeted.
The Philenews website reported that Cypriot authorities think the alleged would-be hitman’s target in the plot was not Sagi, but other members of his company.
Sagi is the founder of the gambling software company Playtech, which has offices in Nicosia.
Sagi had told Channel 12 earlier this month that he was never tipped off or warned and decided to leave Cyprus for unrelated reasons. "The headlines sounded very scary, but it had nothing to do with me," he said. "I didn’t receive any notification to leave."
Some sources had previously claimed that the foiled attack was an liquidation attempt against Sagi linked to his business dealings.
But the Israeli government blamed "Iranian terror" for the planned attack, and said Sagi was targeted only because he was an Israeli businessman.

If one actually visits Portland OR, or Arcata CA, they notice one thing right away. Nearly all businesses have pro BLM posters in their windows. This because they: a) support the fascists whole heartedly b) they are scared to death of the mob. Any questions?

If the Police will or cannot not honor their Oath of Office and the Elected Officials will not protect the Citizens. What is left? But for the Citizens to Arm and Protect themselves.
BTW: Starting Spraying Colored Dye on the Rioters and you will have a method of ID'ing them.

They are begging for the return of Nathan Bedford Forrest and a version of Bloody Kansas. I cannot imagine any reason except the Progresive Marxist embrace of Cloward-Piven as a window to full on revolution?

Nothing is done about this terrorism because Antifa is protected by the Dems; they are of the same fascist mindset. These are not peaceful protests despite what the MSM says.
[NPASYRIA] On Tuesday, a European report accused the government of His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than there are in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really most important... of commissioning the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems.... (ISIS) to implement a kaboom through two jacket wallahs during a demonstration in the Ottoman Turkish capital, Ankara in 2015.

Ghasp!
Erdogan and his Qu'ran defiling flock using false flag ops?

[NY Post] At least six people have been killed and more than 30 injured in Beirut on Thursday after protests erupted into bloodshed with armed clashes and heavy gunfights plaguing the streets of Lebanon’s capital.
The violence broke out during a protest by the militant group Hezbollah and its Shiite allies on Thursday morning as they demanded the lead judge investigating last year’s massive blast in the city’s port be removed over claims of bias.
The violence continued to escalate into the afternoon, with Lebanon’s Interior Minister Bassam Mawlawi saying snipers in buildings were shooting people in the head and grenade launchers were being fired into the air.
"This is a very dangerous sign," Mawlawi told reporters. "No one can take this."
Six people have already been confirmed dead, according to Lebanon’s Red Cross. One of those killed was a woman who was struck by a bullet in her home, a military source told
In scenes reminiscent of Lebanon’s civil war, local media broadcast footage of bullets bouncing off buildings and people running for cover as gunfire echoed in the streets and ambulances rushed to pick up the growing number of casualties.
Smoke also covered the neighborhood where relentless gunfire and explosions continued for hours.
Students in nearby schools huddled in corridors or lay face down on the floor with the windows open to avoid major impact.
The army heavily deployed in the area and threatened to open fire against any armed person on the road.
It wasn’t immediately how the clashes first unfolded, but Hezbollah protesters say they were fired upon by snipers deployed over rooftops as they marched toward the city’s Palace of Justice through an area that divides the Christian and Shi’ite Muslim neighborhoods.
The Christian Lebanese Forces party has denied any involvement, saying it strongly condemned the violence.
Footage on social media showed Lebanese Forces supporters marching through the streets with large crosses after Hezbollah called for the protests.
Political tensions have been building over the probe into the huge port explosion in August 2020 caused by a vast quantity of ammonium nitrate that killed more than 200 people and devastated larges sections of the city.
Hezbollah and its allies have been calling for Judge Tarek Bitar, who is leading the investigation, to be removed.
As part of the probe, the judge has tried to question senior politicians and security officials — including Hezbollah allies — who are suspected of negligence that may have allowed the explosion.
[NPASYRIA] Members of the Eighth Brigade of the Russian-backed Fifth Corps, in the eastern countryside of Daraa, southern Syria, reject Syrian government’s settlement and handing over their weapons.
After the settlements reached the towns of Sayda, al-Nai’ma and Keheil, the government security services asked the Brigade’s members in the three towns to hand over their weapons, where they refused to do so.
Local sources in Sayda told North Press that the town’s notables asked the security committee of the government forces to disarm all citizens residing in the town who are affiliated with several security agencies, led by members of the Eighth Brigade.
