Three churches were set on fire this morning at more or less the same time in the Austrian town of Amstetten, which has a population of 21,000. Police released a description of the suspected arsonist’s clothing and height, but neglected to mention his skin color. Amstetten has a large Muslim population.
In other news, South Korea erected a large Christmas tree-shaped tower with lights just inside its border with North Korea, raising fears that it will provoke a violent response from the North, which considers it “psychological warfare”.

As we are just about to go into the eve part of Christmas eve here in Australia, I would like to wish that Baron, Dymphna, and all the GoV team Merry Christmas.
For me Christmas is the time to reflect that we are guardians for the generations following us, and not to be misled by false Utopias. I believe this message is also at the heart of what GoV is about.
Re South Korea's action, I say, "Tae Han Minkuk, Mansei, Mansei, Mansei!"
