Kevin DeAnna on Arktos: The European Civil War Starts Again
The European Civil War Starts Again
Kevin DeAnna pays tribute to Charlie Kirk, Iryna Zarutska, and Liana Kassai, arguing that their killings inaugurate a new age of martyrdom and struggle for the future of European peoples.
Historically, Western Civilization has existed as a unity. From the Greek alliance against the Persians, to Rome, to the Crusades, the West has found its highest expression when it fights as one. Since the rise of the nation-state, such expressions have been few. In many ways, the entire twentieth century was one great European Civil War, with the global right and left warring over the destiny of Western Man. The victor was not the Communists nor the traditional Right but the extra-European, American creed of individual liberation and international capitalism. In the eyes of critics like Julius Evola, this was a foreign conquest as dangerous as that of Soviet Communism.
Yet, while it is rational for Europeans to oppose American interference on the Continent, it does not change the reality. Despite repeated boasts of European “strategic autonomy” from figures like Emmanuel Macron, the EU has failed to chart a course separate from Washington, and in many ways seems more committed to center-left transatlantic institutions than America itself. The more traditionalist and arguably authentic European Right remains submerged and politically marginalized, while Donald Trump, despite his failures, provides a rallying point for Western patriots worldwide. We can mourn that America has become the Metropole of the West, but what happens in the United States affects everything that happens in Europe.
“The past European conflicts over borders, language, and empires fade to insignificance as we see the war raging within each of our countries.”
The killings of Iryna Zarutska, Liana Kassai, and Charlie Kirk could provide an unexpected spur to united action. The murder of Zarutska is almost overdone in its scripted poignancy – a beautiful Ukrainian refugee, practically a poster child for the sympathetic victim that the neoliberal establishment has been championing. She received shelter in America, exactly the kind of case that the liberal media would use as a club against the Trump Administration’s anti-immigration and arguably anti-Ukrainian policies. She got a job and begins making her way in the big city, almost a walking advertisement for progressives who want a living rebuttal to nativism, patriarchy, and Putinism.
All this was annihilated overnight as she was butchered before the uncaring denizens of Chicago by a career felon who was already arrested more than a dozen times. Decarlos Brown Jr. was released by a magistrate on the basis of a “written promise” he would show up for court, despite numerous past offenses and wild rantings to police that materials in his body were controlling his action. Despite his supposed insanity, he somehow managed to expertly ambush the one white girl within his car from behind, avoiding potentially more dangerous targets. Audio after the event suggests that he muttered “got that white girl” to himself as Zarutska bled out on the dirty floor, fodder for cell phone footage by gawking spectators. Needless to say, the murderer has already been referred to mental health counseling, and we await the inevitable ruling that he cannot be held criminally responsible.
The manner of Zarutska’s end also made her immortal. In shock from the sudden stabbing, she curls in a fetal position and looks up fearfully, almost childlike in appearance. As life drains from her, she sobs while the other passengers on the train ignore her. She then slides off the seat, dead within seconds. There is no gore or fountain of blood, but a combination of vulnerability and beauty that can’t help but inspire rage and a frustrated desire to protect her in every white man that viewed it. Her final moment is iconic, and it compels and yet sickens one to look upon it.
In her, we also see the countless other victims of terrorism and crime, mostly committed by non-whites throughout Europe. It’s impossible not to think of Liana Kassai, another Ukrainian refugee killed at a train station in August, this time in Germany. She was reportedly killed by an Iraqi refugee who had been denied asylum. German authorities initially suspected suicide, though the victim’s family immediately objected. In this case too, we are told the alleged murderer is schizophrenic. Despite his asylum request being denied, the alleged killer remained in the country for years.
Angela Merkel’s boast of “Wir schaffen das” appears doubly tragic, as the Fatherland’s inability to assimilate millions of resentful Muslims now compromises its ability to shelter its European kinsmen fleeing from war. The bright promises of European unity and even the German rearmament supposedly needed to guard the Continent against Russian aggression are especially hollow when refugees are in danger from non-European migrants admitted by Berlin itself. History is rebuking Mutti Merkel, with reality showing Europeans that no, we cannot do this, we cannot admit unlimited numbers of migrants from the Third World and remain who we are.
The assassination of Charlie Kirk is the capstone to this trifecta of tragedy. Kirk was a singular figure on the American Right. Only 31, no one in recent political history has filled so many roles. The founder and lead organizer of the most powerful campus conservative organization, he was also a talk show host, a political organizer who helped win the last presidential election, a close ally and advisor of the White House, a campus speaker, and an online fixture. No one else was simultaneously pushing the margins of political debate while remaining relevant within the mainstream, advocating realistic policies from within the corridors of power while simultaneously widening the Overton Window.
For the extremely online Dissident Right, Charlie Kirk and TPUSA were something of a joke years ago, famously confronted during the first “Groyper War” by activists pressuring him on immigration, anti-white discrimination, Israel, and other issues. Recently, however, Kirk had shifted his rhetoric away from Conservatism Inc. bromides. He proclaimed that there was undeniably a war on whites. He told whites to be proud of who they were. He called for ending the “H1B visa scam.” His final post on X read: “If we want things to change, it’s 100% necessary to politicize the senseless murder of Iryna Zarutska because it was politics that allowed a savage monster with 14 priors to be free on the streets to kill her.” The hard right did not appreciate Kirk until he was martyred, and many of us found to our shock that his opinions were not so different from ours after all.
Despite a deeply dishonest effort by media to muddy the waters, it appears the killer is exactly what most people expected: a progressive radicalized by the violent cults of “antifascism” and transgenderism. Though he was raised in a conservative family, it appears Tyler Robinson converted to the clichés of the modern egalitarian religion and felt he had not just the right but the duty to kill Kirk because he was a “hater.” Perhaps more than the killing itself, it is the reaction to the murder that has radicalized the Right. Soldiers, nurses, teachers, government workers, emergency dispatchers, and others in positions that Americans depend on in their most vulnerable moments have revealed themselves as reveling in the public execution of one of mainstream conservatism’s most beloved figures, one whose entire approach was characterized by a dedication to open debate with even his most militant opponents.
Yet what is most remarkable about the assassination of Kirk is how it has echoed around the world. In England, his name, along with that of Iryna and Liana, was cited by activists at the Unite the Kingdom rally. In Vienna and Leipzig, impromptu monuments to Iryna and Kirk were created, and then promptly targeted and destroyed by antifa. In Poland, Dariusz Matecki held up a picture of Iryna on the floor of the Sejm while proclaiming “White Lives Matter.” The names of our martyrs are known throughout the West.
“This struggle is forging a new civilizational identity, if for no other reason than that we face the same enemy pursuing the same goal of the Great Replacement.”
The past European conflicts over borders, language, and empires fade to insignificance as we see the war raging within each of our countries. While whites cling to post-racial illusions, non-whites within our countries put race first in both political and personal disputes. Unlike in the last European Civil War, leftists do not fight in the name of class justice, but in solidarity with non-whites to defeat “hate” and “racism.” Whatever local issues confront us, the essentials of mass immigration, crime, anti-white discrimination, and the repression of right-wing figures are common to Europeans worldwide. This struggle is forging a new civilizational identity, if for no other reason than that we face the same enemy pursuing the same goal of the Great Replacement.
Few of those on the authentic Right can have any illusions that American-style “conservatism” offers a way out of the death spiral of the West. Yet that is secondary. What matters is the forging of a constituency and ultimately a people that is aware it is under deadly, existential threat. The assassination of Kirk and the butchery of Iryna and Liana have brought that home to millions. “Our fellow citizens” mean nothing compared to those of kindred blood who have felt the pain of these losses and rallied against them. The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church – and the Faith is Europe, and Europe is the Faith.
Kevin DeAnna, popularly known under the pen name James Kirkpatrick, is the author of Conservatism Inc., available from Arktos.
Firstly, Jeff Rense and Gary Holland have done some incredible investigative reporting and made an extremely credible case that this a very professional hit using a palm pistol at close range. It is captured on video. They are heroes here. Robinson is not the killer but a drugged patsy.
Secondly, yes your point as I see it is well taken.
We as white, Cauacasians of European descent are to be destroyed forever by a jewish instigated and implemented genocide employing hordes of “brown” and asiatic peoples by the jews who have hated us since the Romans sacked their temple in 70AD. They are pathological in nature and hold grudges and hatred over eons. It is almost biologically ingrained at this point. Truly bizarre.
Whites simply have developed more kindness and altruism than the other races for whatever reason and it will be our downfall.
It will be a turning point for the planet on not just a historic but a geologic scale.
The reason for White
Kindness is both Christianity and Individualism per Kevin MacDonald in his book on Individualism
and LIberalism. Abolitionism was led by Christians.
My last post on DeAnna’s article did not make the cut. How come…too hard on Jared Taylor?
READ THE POST-WW2 WRITINGS & LISTEN ONLINE TO SIR OSWALD MOSLEY.
Since my computer is not accessing TOO very fast, I wonder if I am persona non grata at TOO.
I therefore repeat what I said a couple days ago about this article by DeAnna, which was not printed.
DeAnna asserts that the murder of a few white girls in Europe by Arabs/Persians is the beginning of a White Revolt.
I doubt it and DeAnna dramatizes the whole thing. Instead I argued that the first thing is to kill the Jewish Power and that the European liberal tolerance of such killings of White girls is something that the Europeans must stop, not us, or at least for now.
Meanwhile the slaughter of Palestinians continues. In both Europe and North America, support for the Jewish State is falling rapidly, now under 50% in the US for the first time.
Gaza. in short, is killing the Jewish Power. Myopically, DeAnna and Jared Taylor, at Am-Ren ally themselves with Israel in hopes to stem the tide of Arab, etc. penetration of Europe.
This is not only a bad idea from the standpoint of killing the Jewish Power, it won’t make a bit of difference for Europe.
The only people who know anything about rape of White girls, etc. in Europe are White Nationalists.
Gaza, on the other hand, has the attention of the whole world , especially Europe and North America.
It is an historic opportunity that may only come once since we do not know the future of Israel and its very existence.
World history now is sharply in play with Gaza and the Jewish genocide of Gazans. Now is the time for a concerted attack on the Jews.
The support of many WN forces for Israel is a disgrace. Europe can wait, and again, it is not our fight anyway, it is White Europeans who must clear their heads of Jew love.
You are not persona non grata here.
Jared Taylor again. Quotes invited.
Jewish “allies” like the Henry Jackson society do oppose non-white immigration – good or bad?
Arabs and Jews have similar genetics, languages and religions.
Thanks Kevin.
In rereading DeAnna’s piece, I note that the word Jew does not appear even once. Jews have been promoting non-White immigration in Europe and North America for decades. That is the subtext of the slogan, Great Replacement .
From Franz Boas to Aipac today, It is Jew, Jew , Jew that fuels the Great Replacement campaign.
DeAnna cannot use the word Jew. It is not permitted by the Jew Power that dominates Am Ren and other complicit WN forces. (by the way, you can say zionist now and then. Just don’t say…., Jew. )
Trumstein is targeting us. We are next following the Palestinians, etc.
Strange how the ‘Plessey vs. Scott’ case has come full circle.
@ Joe Webb
Jew.
There, I’ve said it.
The Jewish lobby AIPAC reportedly donated $60K to a think-tank that engineered a Trump ban on Muslim immigration. I agree with his UN statement that [non-white] immigration is destroying Europe.
Dear Emma. Thanks. I give folks who show some interest in Jews/Gaza some homework that appears legitimate or has some credibility on the face of it. I tell them to get out their OT from the Bible that most folks own. I suggest Deuteronomy and Joshua. Not threatening stuff given the “Bible’s” holy status for most Christians.
Light the fuse.
Re Charlie Kuck, if you have not known evangelicals and how they think, you don’t know Charlie Kuck. Any asides from Charlie that suggest reservations about Israel, is Jew propaganda, per Steven Miller as Trumpstein’s oracle.
The news tonight has Trumpstein trumpeting the Good News: Ukraine can still win the war! Trumpstein for the Nobel Peace Prize…. if only another million or so Ukrainians will die for the Jews, Nato , and Trump’s ego. What a piece of Jewish shit is Trumpstein. And the European liberals. Thank Gods for the Russians and their Oreshniks. Thank God for Putin.
My much considered …and over decades of reading…the Jews collectively are demonic, just as the OT is demonic. And the New Testament is judaized, to repeat myself.
Have a nice day.
Gaza is going to kill the Jews’ mystique. I live in San Francisco Bay area. The Jews have launched a major psy-op on TV. tonight it is Ann Frank. A few weeks ago it was Exodus with the Jew Paul Newman, and then there are war-movies non-stop ….getting us revved up for the next War for the Jews. Except that today is not 1945, etc.
The Internet will go down in history as the next Gutenberg Bible event that revolutionized Europe half a millennium ago.
Jews will judaize the First Amendment: Hate speech is Hitler speech, per the Talmud, say the Rabid Rabbis and constitutional scholars like Dershowitz the frequent flyer on the Lolita Express.
The Ayatollah is right. We are the Great Satan, with Israel bombing the way. Palestine, Libya, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Iran next, have I missed any country? Iran however has 70,000 missiles including hyper-sonics that cannot be stopped. 20 years the Iranians have been studying war….against the Jews. The Jews are going to die, and we will see I guess if Israel actually possesses all those doomsday bombs that they say they have that can reach Europe, etc.
Their nuke submarines can reach the US, no sweat. The Jews will be the death of the world. Who said that ? Voltaire mebbe.
