Belgium: Femen splinter group pelts PM with chips and mayonnaise (surprise: SFW)
Story here. Excerpt:
'The Belgian Prime Minister has been showered with chips and mayonnaise by three former Femen protesters angry at government austerity and the “criminalization of the poor”.
39 year-old Charles Michele, the youngest Belgian Prime Minister ever, was about to start addressing an audience at a business conference in the city of Namur when the three female protesters struck.
Michele took a pasting from soggy fries and mayo, one of Belgium’s national dishes, by Feminist group LilthS, the renamed Belgian branch of Femen, who said they were protesting against budget cuts and the “criminalization of the poor.”
“The Belgian people can’t be left with Chips and Sauce austerity. That is why we threw a symbol of the Belgium they are dismantling in their face,” said a statement on the group’s Facebook page.
But Michele managed to keep a wry smile on his face throughout the stunt and later resumed his speech, although without his jacket.'

Their former foolishness ineffective...
... they're now trying to get attn by actually keeping their clothes on and blathering about money. Well at least they're actually talking about a substantive concern that at least everyone can agree upon as relevant: moolah. And finally, not streaking in public saves everyone from seeing them debase and deface themselves publicly. That's good for everyone.
Still, perhaps they don't realize what a big favor they just did for this guy. By taking it in stride (if not actually enjoying it!) and getting pilloried by confirmed nutcases like former (hmm, wonder why?) Femen types, I imagine his poll ratings will actually go up. I predict that soon, pols will actually pay Femen and/or their affiliates (like these types) to do stuff like this to them just for what will amt. to positive press.
I heard recently that the difference between fiction and non-fiction is that fiction has to be believable. Case in point!
Lilith
FYI, significance of the name "Lilith" According to the Christian bible and Christian folklore, Lilith was Adam's first wife, but later becomes a demon. She is responsible for all the deaths and bad things which happen to children including the unborn (miscarriages). Lilith hates pregnant women. The fact that an abortion activist feminist group would call themselves "Lilith" is quite telling: Feminists are bad for children, families and the unborn and that's reality, not fairy tale.
Feminists have no trouble making their own bad press
Before writing your comment, you probably hadn't seen this post I just published here on MANN. It was like they were reading your mind and/or vice-versa. And, they didn't care what you thought of them, which is typical of ideologues. Their aim is to overthrow and tyrannize, not convince through discussion of facts.
If western civilization collapses, it'll be because, collectively speaking, its various institutions decided not to bother trying to protect it from those who want to destroy it. Given that the basic protections previously afforded people to be secure in their places of worship, to worship as they see fit unimpeded so long as in so doing they don't violate the rights of others (this includes the right to congregate peaceably and be left alone in their houses of worship, both themselves and those places unmolested) are fundamental rights based on the right to be left in peace. It is a fundamental, root liberty and right that is the basis of the right to property, security of person, freedom of expression, of congregation, association, worship, and is the basis of a myriad of others basic human and political rights.
This French court just tossed it under the bus all to placate a bunch of nutty feminists. Sad part is, they know what they just did. Civilizations rarely collapse due to external forces. It's the rot from within that typically takes them down. The vines and weeds just encroach where the flowers and bushes lost the will to keep growing. Sad.
