Five items of above average cause for concern: Links 2 on Feb. 9 – 2016

1. Atwan: ISIS Savagery – from Islamic History; West Likely to “Contain” ISIS Like It Contained Arafat

In a December 15 lecture about ISIS at the American University in Beirut, Abdel Bari Atwan, former editor-in-chief of “Al-Quds Al-Arabi” and the current editor-in-chief of “Al-Rai Al-Youm” rejected common claims that the savagery of ISIS is alien to Islam, presenting examples of similar conduct from Islamic history. Atwan said that the West faces two options: to contain ISIS or to destroy it. The former is more likely than the latter, he added. The West always starts by trying to destroy organizations that it considers to be terrorist and ends up negotiating with them, Atwan said, citing the Taliban, the PLO, and the IRA as prominent examples.

TORONTO — Premier Kathleen Wynne says despite “challenges,” Ontario is on track to receive 10,000 Syrian refugees by the end of this month.
The federal government is aiming to settle 25,000 refugees by the end of February, with about two-thirds expected to be government-assisted.
About 7,000 Syrian refugees have already settled in Ontario since Dec. 10 and on Monday the premier announced details of some of the funding committed to helping them.
The Ontario Council of Agencies Serving Immigrants is receiving about $343,000 for trauma and mental-health training for front-line workers as well as a public education campaign, and COSTI Immigrant Services is receiving $283,000 to deliver workshops and orientation resources to refugees.

3. ‘Islamic State Commander’ Found Living As Refugee In Rural German Village

In the latest of a series of raids, German police have searched two homes in a rural village after a television channel interviewed a suspected Islamic State commander living there as a refugee.

Sankt Johann is a small village in the south west German state, Rhineland-Palatinate. Something of a rural idyll, its 800 residents live between vineyards in the shadow of a 14th century Gothic church. And yet, as SPIEGEL TVreports, this weekend it was the scene of police raids on two Islamic State-linked suspects living in refugee housing.

Prosecutors’ office spokesman Michael Neuhaus said the two men targeted by the operation are “suspected of taking part in the Syrian civil war as members of a foreign terrorist organisation”. He said there were “no immediate indications that a concrete attack was planned” but declined to give any further details.

4. U.S. defense intelligence chief predicts increased ISIS attacks

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Islamic State is likely to step up “the pace and lethality” of its attacks in the months ahead as it seeks to fan the flames of international conflict, the director of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency said on Monday.

Speaking to a security conference, Marine Corps Lieutenant General Vincent Stewart linked his warning to the militant group’s establishment of “emerging branches” in Mali, Tunisia, Somalia, Bangladesh and Indonesia.

He also said he would not be surprised if Islamic State, which has created a self-proclaimed Caliphate across swaths of Syria and Iraq, extended its operations from the Sinai Peninsula deeper into Egypt.

“Last year, Daesh remained entrenched on Iraqi and Syrian battlefields and expanded globally to Libya, Sinai, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and the Caucasus,” Stewart said, using a derisive Arabic acronym for Islamic State.

“Daesh is likely to increase the pace and lethality of its transnational attacks because it seeks to unleash violent actions and to provoke a harsh reaction from the West, thereby feeding its distorted narrative” of a Western war against Islam, he said.

(The thing is, if Islam wages war on everyone else to feed a narrative that everyone else is waging a war on islam, it does not change the fact that islam is waging a war on all of us and we need to act in our own interests. Not reacting to the provocation will not convince any muslim that they are being lied to, but does guarantee a victory to them. This is pretty basic math)

5. Luton cop ‘groomed’ children on Facebook

(“It doesn’t matter how good airport security is if the pilot is the terrorist” and it doesn’t matter how good your laws are if the police are the ones turning white British children into forced prostitutes and drug addicts)

12:54Tuesday 09 February 2016

A policeman with an obsessive interest in teenage girls ‘trawled’ Facebook for young victims to have sex with, a jury heard today.

Mohammad Arshad, 35, groomed numerous underage girls over the Internet, cruised around Luton with them in his black Mercedes and persuaded to have sexual activity with him, it was alleged.

He persistently pestered them for sex and raped one 14 year old one on the back seat of his car, St Albans Crown Court was told.

[…]

“At the time he was seeking sexual contact with under age teenage girls, he was also a Police Constable with Bedfordshire police. “

Thank you M., Pym Punell, Maria J., Wrath of Khan, Richard and many others. Much more to come today.

  1. Not sure how to write directly, but wanted to pass this along:

    Dozens of locals moved to defend a 19 year old girl after she was groped on bottom by a “North African” male which led to a mass brawl. Police were deployed to the suburb and ordered all bars in the area to close early to head off the possibility of further violence. The violence, in which migrants pulled knives after being told to leave the local women alone, took three hours to be settled by officers.

    Local bar owners expressed frustration over being forced to close early on one of their busiest trading days of the year, with one landlord expressing to the Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger that the crowd in her establishment were good natured and they had nothing to do with the fighting.

    A THREE-HOUR brawl between locals and migrants — that’s newsworthy and I was hoping you might be able to get a competent translation and/or more info on this one. Thanks!

    • If they pulled knifes this time it will be guns in the near future, open war in the streets of all European cities by the end of summer.

    • Thanks for the information. This is exactly the kind of news that the authorities are trying to suppress… They are determined to make us forget about everything important and focus our undivided attention on the poor polar bears who are losing their beloved ice to the evils of capitalism…

  2. #1 ISIS Savagery

    Quite correctly, the highly-educated Arab man observes that the reason for ISIS’s savagery is to terrify the enemy and make him flee in fear. Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Peters observed, correctly, that the way to deal with ISIS was to terrify them back, only ten times as badly. Obama prescribed, incorrectly, a remedy consisting of half-hearted, ultra-careful and considerate, on-again-off-again attacks, which played right into ISIS’s hands and caused the Iraqi Army to run in fear.

    Are we supposed to believe that Obama is so dumb he didn’t know that Colonel Ralph was right and he was wrong? I could have figured it out by the age of six. The bad guys scare you and you scare them back. Yup, I could have grocked that at six. Obama knows exactly what he is doing and he always has…

    • That he has, he was raised to hate the US in particular and the West in general. His early religious training was in Islam and the so called Christian Church he chose to attend is run by a former Black Muslim who preaches black liberation theology. These things were known before the 08 election but no one in the Republican establishment had the guts to state them. Now we are faced with a war of a kind that hasn’t been fought for a long time. The analogy of the fall of Rome is both right and wrong, and if we will fight back it will be very hard for us to lose the war.

      Always remember that no matter how evil our enemy is there are people in our nations and governments who will sell us out for some temporary personal advantage.

      The price of freedom is eternal vigilance to prevent the dictators of the world taking that freedom from us, and the hardest dictators to fight are the ones who claim to be taking your freedom to ensure a long and happy life for everyone.

    • This is just so disheartening.

      I’ve been reading my Fjordman file going back more than ten years. Fjordman was pretty sure Europe’s goose was already cooked by then. It’s Coughlin’s ‘House on Fire’ before the match was lit here.

      Eurabia was in the works from the EU’s infancy. History textbooks revised, the MUG – media, university, government – marinated in cultural Marxism. Systematic demonization of the US and Israel. The Evil Empire stirring the mess from time to time.

      Then it was served it to the credulous simpletons of North America. The Muslim Brotherhood infiltrated our institutions going back at least as far as Clinton.

      What the hell’s wrong with us? electing as president a slick red diaper baby whose middle name’s HUSSEIN _after _ 9/11?

      Surveillance files purged and CVE everywhere you look.
      Mr. Harper exchanged for a Bacha-bazi.
      The Canadian army tasked with cleaning Tardish litter-boxes.
      A Bernie Sanders getting ANY votes?

      • During Obama’s first year in office a study was done and 1/3rd of the people who admitted voting for him said that they considered him to be unqualified to be President but that they voted for him because he was the first Black who was nominated. They wanted to be able to prove that they weren’t racist by voting for Obama.

        The second election was so openly crooked Third World dictators sent people to learn how to steal elections.

      • What’s wrong with us? The tolerant majority of the people in the US and Europe letting the far hard left gain so much power, enough power that they could distort history and indoctrinate the kids with the meme that the west is evil.

        • Ever doubt what party the bad guys in “Avatar” were? By the time a kid hits twelve he already has a deep visceral hatred of “those people”, meaning conservatives. When you brainwash a person that young, the thing will be an automatic response and will be believed without evidence.

          Ever noticed how many Asian parents send their kids to private schools, even if they can’t really afford it? Asian people have heard of communism and it’s not what they had in mind for their children when they came over.

      • Great comment. Grimly humorous.

        Maybe, just maybe, Donald Trump will act as the little retarded boy in the story who says, “But the Emperor isn’t wearing anything at all…”. Judging by the atmosphere at the Trump rallies, there are definitely quite a few people who are really, really sick of all this left wing bullsh$t. They’ve got us all cowering in the corner, terrified of saying anything for fear of being called something ending in “ist”.

        Some famous person is overheard questioning climate change or uttering the wrong word and bam, their career is over, just like that. Do you think they’d be treating Justin Bieber like absolute garbage if he properly hated Jesus and correctly whined about saving the planet all the time? Ever noticed how eager they are to crucify Tom Cruise? So far they can’t hang anything on him, but one wrong move and they’ll devour him like piranhas. Ever hear Tom whining about climate change? And on and on and on.

        A lot of people are looking to Donald Trump to be so big and so strong and so brave that he smashes political correctness into a million pieces and people are allowed to speak without fear – because that’s how it’s supposed to be, damn it!
        Man, will there ever be fireworks if he gets elected…:)

  3. The ROP Luton cop raping a 14 yr old & grooming others is a big story, yet only seems to be reported in the local paper. Luton is of course Tommy Robinson’s home town. In his book he remarks on the number of ROP cops sent to interview & arrest him. I wonder if this man was one of them. What poetic injustice.

  4. 3. ‘Islamic State Commander’ Found Living As Refugee In Rural German Village

    This man didn’t come to Europe to get away from the fighting, he came to be one of the commanders in the ISIS campaign in Europe. This man can be broken in time to learn about the attack and who are the commanders, he can but the method needed (water boarding) to break him will not be used by the European governments until after the fighting is open and deadly and the government leaders have been changed.
