1. Especially repugnant ‘justice’ minister of the far left and islamic sympathetic stripe, resigned from French government over plans that might actually have some positive effect against terrorism within France.
(Oz-Rita knows a great deal about this woman. Perhaps she will supply links for those of us what want to see a history of her. Think US attorney general, Loretta Lynch but French)
2. Anger in Italy as statues covered to save Iranian blushes
Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi came under fire on Tuesday after ancient nude statues in Rome’s Capitoline museum were covered up to avoid any possible offense to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani who is visiting the country.
Italy and Iran will sign up to 17 billion euros of business deals during the two day visit of the Iranian delegation which began on Monday, but Italian opposition leaders and commentators said Renzi had gone too far to please his guest.
Politicians on the left and right said not only had Renzi made almost no reference to Iran’s human rights record during a joint news conference, but had also “surrendered” Italy’s cultural identity by hiding the nude statues of women.
“Respect for other cultures cannot and must not mean negating our own,” said Luca Squeri, a lawmaker in former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi’s center-right Forza Italia party. “This isn’t respect, it’s cancelling out differences and it’s a kind of surrender.”
(It only seems fair. The last time an Italian leader visited Iran they put all the statues of women into bikinis for them. Didn’t they? wait, does Iran have any statues of women?)
3. Bangladesh’s Growing Jihadist Movement at Home and Abroad
Free Fire | | Asia, CounterJihad Campaign
Between November 16, 2015 to December 1, 2015, Singapore authorities arrested 27 Bangladeshi Jihadist supporters. Singapore police were able to arrest the men utilizing the country’s city-state International Security Act (ISA) as the group had threatened armed jihad against the Bangladesh government. The group told authorities that they followed the teachings of al-Qaeda teacher Anwar al-Awlaki.
The 27 men detained were construction workers and had lived in Singapore anywhere from two to seven years. Singapore has a high population of migrant workers from Bangladesh, the Philippines, and Indonesia.
The New Age Newspaper, found that the jihadists had visited the Anguilla Mosque, located in the Little India section of Singapore. They often passed jihadist reading materials and leaflets while meeting on every Sunday. They also visited the mosque on Serangoon Road to try and recruit new members.
4. Cologne sex attacks: ‘Safe zone’ for women planned ahead of city’s carnival
(So the German strategy now appears to be to put the victims in jail. One cannot accuse Merkel and her sympathizers of being inconsistent)
Authorities in the German city of Cologne are to set up a “safe zone” for women during the annual carnival which begins next week, to avoid a repeat of the New Year sex attacks on women.
The move comes after it emerged two asylum-seekers from Algeria are being held as suspects in the sex assaults.
The Cologne carnival is one of the largest street festivals in Europe, and attracts more than 1m people to its main parade each year.

There are concerns the large crowds could leave women vulnerable to the sort of attacks seen on New Year’s Eve, when police were heavily outnumbered.
5. Germany says flow of fighters to Syria and Iraq increasing
ISIS militants raise the group’s flag on a bridge in Fallujah, Iraq, in a photo posted online March 31, 2015.
BERLIN — Germany’s domestic intelligence agency says the number of Islamic extremists heading to Syria and Iraq continues to grow, raising concerns over trained fighters returning who could carry out attacks in Europe.
The agency said Wednesday its latest evidence shows 790 people so far have made the trip from Germany to link up with militant groups in the Mideast, up from 750 in October, and about one-third had returned.
Agency head Hans-Georg Maassen says “the security situation is serious.”
Germany so far has been spared mass-casualty attacks by Islamic extremists such as the Nov. 13 Paris attacks but security officials say it is also a target.
6. I believe this is footage of a massive column of the Al Nusra Front in Syria joining up with the Islamic State. (Was the ANF US trained and equipped as ‘moderates’?)
7. Greece: ISIS funded by Turkish money for a ‘long, long time’ – Israeli DefMin
(This is important. When the DM publicly states something like this, it takes on quite a new level of importance. Also cements what we already know about NATO and the US and its current interests and Israeli partnership I should think)
8. The answer we have all been waiting for, to the question of the age:
‘How much does the government fine a girl for protecting herself from a muslim rape gang?’
A 17-year-old girl in Denmark is facing police charges and a substantial fine after fending off a sex attacker — who did not speak the Danish language — with pepper spray.
The man is alleged to have attacked the girl at 10pm on a Wednesday evening, unbuttoning her trousers and attempting to pull them down.
She was out for the evening in the town of Sønderborg, Southern Denmark, which has been in the headlines recently after multiple reports surfaced of migrants from a nearby refugee centre harassing women. One local nightclub even banned men who did not speak Danish because the problem had become so bad.
The young woman was only able to break free after using pepper spray to deter the molesting man, who only spoke English to the girl. His ethnicity has not been disclosed.
9. Muslim Terrorist: “Reprisal is the most natural right.” Russia agrees.
10. Angela Merkel Diagnosed by Psychoanalyst as ‘Narcissistic’, Verging on ‘Mental Breakdown’
(Not sure I like this approach. In fact I know I do not. The problem with Merkel likely stems from her actual beliefs. But if this is heaping scorn on her in such a way that she loses authority faster than we can forget Thomas Szasz for a bit and pretend its a mental problem)
One of Germany’s most celebrated psychoanalysts has said the refusal of Chancellor Angela Merkel to reverse her “completely irrational” migrant policy is evidence of a potential “mental breakdown” that endangers society.
Hans-Joachim Maaz, a German psychiatrist, psychoanalyst and best-selling author, was speaking with Huffington Post Germany when he suggested a “stubborn” Angela Merkel has “lost touch with reality”.
According to Mr. Maaz, the German Chancellor suffers from “narcissism” brought on by people lauding her position as ‘mother of the nation’ and most powerful woman in the world, and calling for her to have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. He says the “artificially inflated self-image” she labours under leads to the “stubborn attitude” on display by her during the ongoing migrant crisis.
Thank you M., Wrath of Khan, Tundra T., Buck, Richard, and many more and stand by, there is more to come very soon. Some interesting materials indeed.
Vatican Covers Nudes But Pope Still Kisses Rouhani’s Ass
Iran is the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism.
Officials in the Roman Catholic Church expressed shock and disgust today upon discovering that despite extensive preparations to make the artwork at the complex physically modest and welcoming to Iran’s president by covering many of the nude statues and paintings, the pope upended those efforts by kissing and licking the buttocks of his Muslim visitor.
A group of cardinals and Vatican staff privately voiced frustration over Pope Francis’s osculation of Hassan Rouhani’s backside yesterday, saying they felt they had toiled for nothing, and that the Holy Father had deemed worthless all the work they had done in preparation for the state visit. The staff and administration of the Holy See put in days worth of effort to conceal the numerous statues of unclothed or only partly clothed human figures that feature in the many classic works of art on display in the Vatican, and to do so in a simple, dignified fashion. Nevertheless, the Bishop of Rome for some reason saw fit to defy all those modesty measures by bending over and kissing the tuchus of Iran’s president by asking him to help fight terrorism in the region. Iran is the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism.
“I felt violated,” confessed Father Michelangelo Buonarotti, a custodian of some of the statuary. “I oversaw, and physically participated in, the assembly and installation of plain white covers to conceal some of the nude or mostly nude figures so that our guest would not be made uncomfortable by the ostentatious display of the human form. And then the Holy Father crouched down and kissed Rouhani’s butt with his remarks. I felt at that moment that I needed to vomit, and I’m still reeling from the episode a day later.”
“It was obscene, there is no other word for what he said and did,” echoed Cardinal Hans Tuchuslekker, a Vatican administrative official. “It would be one thing to just diplomatically say nice things, but to lick Rouhani’s tush like that, as if the guy doesn’t represent and enable the murder of thousands, including Christians – that was beyond the pale. I’m having a crisis of faith now.”

LOVE IT yucki 🙂 LOL
it’s only out of respect for Vlad and his site, and a little because I dont think that the Vatican, the Italian President and assorted Islamo-Fellators are visiting here, that I dont post right here and now some truly vulgar nuddy pics.
So innocent, probably daring in 1967. We’ve become more earthy, more’s the pity.
1. Taubira
I dont trust myself to comment too much on this tonight, seeing that we are celebrating with a glass of bubbly or 5 to celebrate here TEMPORARY departure. Like a virus, she will be back, and folk in the know are very worried what price the opportunistic Hollande paid her in form of promesses, to get rid of her before the election. There is talk that she will be president of the law-makers.
Anyway, she has still quite a few rotten eggs in the oven, such as a new law that would make arabo/black/muslims make immune to prison sentences if they are under 18 or 19 (officially, because defacto they are already).
As Nigella Lawson would say: “here is something I prepared earlier” 😉

US-trained Division 30 rebels ‘betray US and hand weapons over to al-Qaeda’s affiliate in Syria’
Pentagon-trained rebels are reported to have betrayed US and handed weapons over to Jabhat al-Nusra immediately after entering Syria
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/syria/11882195/US-trained-Division-30-rebels-betrayed-US-and-hand-weapons-over-to-al-Qaedas-affiliate-in-Syria.html
Turkey funding ISIS doesn’t surprise me, it is an open secret that Edrogen wants to be Caliph and will do anything to achieve that goal.
A very large part of the problem with NATO is that after the fall of the USSR it had no mission but the left prevented it being disbanded hoping it would turn into an EU army. The other reason the left wanted to keep NATO alive is that its presence allows the leftist governments in Europe to keep the military funding low, after all if you have NATO individual nations don’t need much of a military.
Probably figured they could “turn it” to attack enemies of the farrr, farrr rrright.
Might still be correct.
