Looming Civil War in France

The Fruits of Liberal Immigration Policy
France has frequently been the scene of burning cars, burning buildings, violent riots, and murderous attacks on individuals and crowds in the last two decades. Many suburbs of Paris have become lawless “no-go” zones even for police. Many are subject to the “alternative laws” of drug kingpins and Muslim imams. As in many other European countries, this has been closely associated with excessive and uncontrolled immigration. In many Western European countries and the United States and Canada, insane unvetted immigration has become a sacred cow, which cannot be challenged without the wrath of deranged social justice proctors in academia, the media, and government. Moreover, the politics of the countries afflicted with such social mayhem begin to change with the influence of the new largely unassimilated immigrant voters, making corrective immigration reform more and more difficult until reform is impossible and utter chaos or revolutionary government destroys freedom, security, and any traditional and rational sense of right and wrong.
Recent European Elections Indicate Strong Conservative Shift

Finland, Greece, Germany, Spain
At least four recent elections in Europe evidence a strong trend to the conservative right.
The first big shift came on April 2 and got little public attention in the leftist media that dominates the US, the UK, and most of Western Europe. Finland elected its most conservative government in its history. Nine Finnish political parties qualified for the final parliamentary election. A majority coalition of 101 of 200 seats is necessary to govern the nation. Finnish leader of the conservative National Coalition Party, Petteri Orpo, became Prime Minister with 21 percent, winning 48 seats and gaining the alliance of three coalition partners totaling 60 seats for a 108 seat majority. Second place in the parliamentary elections, finishing close behind with 20 percent was the Finns Party (formerly the True Finns Party), winning 46 seats. The Finns Party, led by Rikka Purra, is even more conservative than the National Coalition Party, especially on immigration and national sovereignty issues. The Swedish People’s Party of Finland, an ethnic minority party with 9 seats, and the Christian Democrats with 5 seats made up the balance. I find it somewhat of a reversal of rampant Scandinavian feminism that Orpo was one of only two men of the nine party leaders vying for the office of prime minister.

The Last Days of Camp Douglas

Confederate POWs Marched Out Singing “Dixie”
Captain Tom Quirk and nine Morgan scouts.
Official records of POW deaths during the Civil War on both sides indicated that about 49,000 Union and Confederate soldiers died in 150 Prisoner of War camps. The major statistics are broken down in last week’s article, Union and Confederate POW camps in the Civil War.
Author Lonnie R Speer, however, in his 1997 book, Portals to Hell: Military Prisons of the Civil War; covering statistics from 96 Union and 117 Confederate facilities which housed POWs during the war, found 30,218 Confederate deaths and 25,796 Union deaths, bringing the total to just over 56,000. According to Speer, 15.5 percent of the Confederates prisoners died, a ratio 29 percent higher than the slightly more than 12 percent of Union prisoners that died. Speer’s statistics may even be conservative. Speer has only the 4,454 official deaths for Camp Douglas, but historical on-site estimates from Confederate prisoners in the last days of Camp Douglas and modern counts indicate there are at least 5,600 Confederate graves at or near Camp Douglas. In addition, about 400 bodies of Confederate soldiers were recorded as shipped to their families at home. George Levy in his 1999 book, To Die in Chicago; Confederate Prisoners at Camp Douglas 1862-1865, has a whole chapter, “Lost in Chicago,” on the missing Confederate dead.
Union and Confederate POW Camps in the Civil War

Uncovering the Reality of American History
Some Morgan Cavalry POWs at Camp Douglas - Probably 1863
During the American Civil War from 1861 to 1865, 270,000 Union soldiers were held in Confederate POW camps. Of these, 22,576 died, about 8.4 percent of the total. More than half of these, 12,919 died in just one of three major Confederate POW camps, Andersonville, about 59 miles east of Columbus, Georgia. This was portrayed as a war crime by the Northern press and many Northern politicians, but the causes of these deaths were neither mistreatment nor deliberate negligence. However, its commandant, Swiss immigrant, Captain Henry Wirz, was hanged after the war on November 10, 1865. According to a University of Missouri Law School study, he was convicted on the basis of bribed false testimony and rules of evidence, testimony, and fairness that were blatantly and shamefully biased and distorted. His trial was probably one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in American history.
Mike Scruggs is the author of two books: The Un-Civil War: Shattering the Historical Myths; and Lessons from the Vietnam War: Truths the Media Never Told You, and over 600 articles on military history, national security, intelligent design, genealogical genetics, immigration, current political affairs, Islam, and the Middle East.
He holds a BS degree from the University of Georgia and an MBA from Stanford University. A former USAF intelligence officer and Air Commando, he is a decorated combat veteran of the Vietnam War, and holds the Distinguished Flying Cross, Purple Heart, and Air Medal. He is a retired First Vice President for a major national financial services firm and former Chairman of the Board of a classical Christian school.
