Tomorrow we celebrate Remembrance Day in Canada and in other countries of the Commonwealth, a day to remember those who died fighting for home and country, or, as the case may be, for King and country or, as needed, for the motherland (e. g.: Russia) or for the fatherland (e. g.: Germany).

Yes, even in Germany there is such a thing as Remembrance Day. It was declared as an official day of celebration in 1816, by order of the Prussian King Frederic William III. He designated the last Sunday preceding the first Advent to be a day of remembrance of those who deceased during the preceding year. It is popularly called Totensonntag (Sunday of the Dead).

Remembrance Day or Sunday of the Dead, we mourn those who died, regardless of their sex, and the memory of war never leaves those who actively participated in one or often in more than one, either as soldiers or as civilians who lived through war. Officially though, Germany does not engage much in the military ceremonies and show of regalia that are a major part of Remembrance-Day-like activities in English-speaking countries. There are other differences.

Germany gave a military emphasis to the Sunday of the Dead only when its totalitarian regimes were actively engaged in war, necessarily so, because it lost the lives of many millions of soldiers during those wars. After all, the Sunday of the Dead is in remembrance of those who died during the year gone by, and during a given past year in war, the vast majority of the dead were soldiers.

Although the Sunday of the Dead is and always was gender-neutral, Remembrance Day once rightfully wasn’t but now is gender-neutral, too. That is curious but politically correct.

Nevertheless, objectively, it always was and still is so, that soldiers who died in war were and still are almost without exception men. The alleged advance of the equality of the sexes does not yet and probably never will extend to have women soldiers die in numbers that even remotely approach the number of men soldiers who die in war; not even in Israel. Men are expendable, women are to be protected. It always was and always will remain so, notwithstanding all feminist claims to the contrary.

I don’t want to write here about those thoughts for too long, as I did so already some years ago and recently expanded on them a little more in To Preserve and Protect, an essay on the changing role of women in war, on the economics and roots of war, and on the male sacrificial premium.

To Preserve and Protect recently rose to prominence on the website of Fathers for Life and on the Internet. It presently attracts about one tenth of the visitors who come daily to the website. It ranks in 18th place of 330,000 entries on the search-return list for a google-search for “to preserve and protect”. [As of Nov. 14, 2007, that was in 5th place of about 718,000]

Curiously, almost exclusively only the first page of the set of five pages is being visited, but most of the visitors to that page stayed long enough to read all of it. That is not because most people actually read the page. It is because people are more interested in pictures than they are in words. The picture at the right is the one that drew all of the attention. Let no one have any illusions that the attention that picture got by hundreds of visitors a day will last throughout the whole year.

The attention the picture received began on Nov. 3 and will end a few days after Remembrance Day. In comparison, women attract far more attention than dead men who died by the millions for home and country will.

The picture of the anorexic body builder that is shown here attracts many more visitors each day than the soldiers’ graves do, and it attracts that attention - ever-increasing amounts of it - every day, 365 days a year, year after year.

It is too bad for those who took the trouble to read only the first page of To Preserve and Protect at F4L. Whether they are feminists or not, they missed out on some very surprising truths about war.

Yes, men and women do live in very different realities, and, no, women do not get the short end of the stick, but women do claim to be the victims.  Are they?  Really?

The case of Tavis Lamprell, the father who got deported from Canada to Australia (I thought they didn’t do that anymore) for arguing with his girlfriend, is not the first such case of deportation from Canada.

For instance, there was the 2001 case of Erwin Sillipp, a jewelry manufacturer from St. Albert (near Edmonton) who served five years in jail and in prison (he spent a long time in remand, before his case got to trial) in a case of mutual stalking between him and his then-wife, while his ex got off with spending not a single day in jail and without even a nominal sentence. After all, even though the “stalking” was a mutual dance, she was not charged with having submerged herself in being a perpetrator of the crime of stalking.

Well, Erwin’s was at least the start of such a case that, even though it never went to its conclusion, nevertheless had the intended outcome.

You see, Erwin was the first Alberta man indicted for the crime of stalking (the stalking happened in about 1992-93) under Alberta’s then brand-new anti-stalking law. Appearances are that the system made a show trial out of his case, and that - of course - for that reason the system had to make its case against Erwin and crush him.

Erwin had paid for his ex’s education as a psychotherapist and had paid for her practice. She fell in love with one of her patients, a Ms Ferland (in a clear case of violation of the doctor-to-client relationship), who then moved into their marital bedroom. According to Erwin, Ms Ferland slept right next to his and his wife’s connubial bed, on the floor, but she eventually moved right into Erwin’s rightful place in his own bed and pushed him out.

Incidentally, they all had all sort of company there, since Erwin’s soon-to-be ex had bestowed a good number of different personalities (I believe it was close to a hundred) on her lesbian-lover-cum-client. I am not making this up on the fly. It happened.

As to be expected, Erwin’s ex turned out to be a good housekeeper. She kept the house that Erwin had bought; she kept the kids, car, cash and castle.

The case is a bit too complicated to relate here in its entirety, but after Erwin got out of jail (in about 1997), he first got served with a restraining order that barred him from Alberta, and then, on the strength of Erwin having been found guilty of being a criminal, a deportation hearing began in Feb. 2001. Doug Christie was his lawyer. (See also Western Canada Concept)

Doug Christie argued in immigration court that Erwin could not get a fair hearing under the immigration board judge that heard Erwin’s case in Edmonton. He said that there was a reasonable apprehension of bias because the judge was appointed by the minister of immigration.

Upon that, after a short recess, the judge returned to announce that the case had to be adjourned until a few months later. Ultimately and unfortunately - perhaps fortunately - there was no ending to the court case. Erwin didn’t wait to be deported. He left on his own and vanished from Canada before the next court hearing took place in November of that year.

See the web page that describes the end of Erwin’s residency in Canada.

The legal industry made a bundle on that case; and its victim lost his family, a fortune, his income, his business and his freedom in Canada. That is what it is or at least comes to: asset transfer from the victim to the players in the legal industry. It’s not about justice at all. That went out of the window as soon as political correctness came in through the back-door.

Update 2007 11 11: As the comments pertaining to this story show, it difficult for virtually anyone, even for some of those who went through the experience of the consequences of a 911-call, to accept that once a 911-call over alleged domestic violence has been made by a woman (even if she then insists that no violence happened), the bureaucratic machinery then set into motion can and will destroy a man and his family.  For more on that, do this search: <Shout at spouse, lose your house>.

By the way, speaking of deportations, there is also the restriction of freedom of movement in Canada, not only for men who lose their drivers licenses, or for men like Erwin Sillipp, but for someone like Doug Christie, a man who not only never committed a crime and never even went through the charade of having been found guilty of one he didn’t commit.

Doug Christie has been banned from being on Parliament Hill! (That is something that you will not find in politically-correct Wikipedia.)

For someone in power, instead of closing his eyes when faced by the truth, it is far more convenient and practical to ban the truth.

There is nothing new under the sun:

Emigration Song

August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben

Our sovereigns promised us much,
But the keeping seemed not their obligation.
Is it that we did so many crimes,
That they didn’t keep their pledge?

It is getting worse from day to day,
To be silent is our only right:
Subjects aren’t entitled to complaints,
And the slave must obey his lord.

Our brothers are ordered to be deported,
Of greater value than all rights is the police.
Today it hits this one, tomorrow that one,
Every, every German is an outlaw.

German Liberty only lives in song,
German right, it only is a tale,
German welfare is a long peace —
Full of avarice and censorship.

Therefore we leave the fatherland,
Neither now nor ever to return,
Seek our freedom on foreign shores —
Only freedom is life, is happiness.

There once was freedom in Canada. In 1962 I took my wife and three children to enjoy Canadian freedom. Now neither Germany nor Canada nor any of the developed nations have it any longer. All they have is political correctness. Men are now second-class citizens and regarded to be sub-human everywhere.

Now men not merely get deported or leave on their own to places where they think they still can find freedom. The problem with men is now a very deadly one. Millions of men each year take the ultimate escape, they commit suicide, at rates not seen since the Great Depression. For men, depression is now endemic and causes men to kill themselves in epidemic proportions throughout the world.

However, as the feminists see it, that is a good thing. Every dead man is a good man.
