  1. It’s 6 am, 15. January 2016 now in Paris. There is a very nasty meeting taking place, starting in a few hours, which calls itself “something somthing for peace”. It does not even hide the virulent Jew Hatred that will be on play there – an extention (as I understand it) to the nasty last acts of OBAMA at the UN. Abbass will be there and some 70 or so other countries, deciding that the Muslim/Arabs, euphemistically referred to as “Paaaalestiiiiinians” should get the Green Light to follow their charter and destroy Israel and the Jews. (My vocabulary might be strong, but I have no time for the technical details. However there is, in 5 hours from now (11 am Paris time) a “Meeting of Solidarity with Israel and Jerusalem” before the Israeli Embassy in Paris – if you are there, please join them !

    Resistance Repuplicaine is publishing an article (no time to translate it right now), with the Title:

    Demain, à Paris, la honteuse conférence organisée par Hollande pour tuer Israël

    Tomorrow, in Paris, the shamefull conference organised by Hollande to kill Israel !

    Here is my personal contribution to the subject, and you are allowed to call me “hard core” 😉

    • Dear Rita,

      The overall surrender by EU governments to their largely Antisemitic and genocidal Arab neighbors—even as they render defenseless their own indigenous populations and Jewish communities—will go down in history as yet another modern form of those same Medieval anti-Jewish pogroms that eventually enabled the Nazis to commit their heinous atrocities.

      This time around, the significant difference is that ordinary, indigenous Europeans are being consumed in the same bonfire of laws favoring these new “protected species” that have been imported as part of intentionally overwhelming any resistance to the EU’s Communist-Totalitarian autocracy.

      It is heartbreaking to see the Continent pushed towards a third iteration of the conflicts and violence that left so much of it in ruins during the first half of this last century.

      Equally impossible is the task of convincing oneself that these lunatic EU apparatchiks are wholly unaware of the consequences facing Europe and, eventually, their own selves as part of resolving this intentionally induced mayhem. May all of them (and their families) never be shown a scintilla of mercy. Gah!!!

      • @ NorseRadish

        First they come for the Saturday People…then for the Sunday people….
        Apart from the nausea these moronic jew haters cause me, WHY DONT THEY GET IT that Israel is fighting their war !!!!

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTYszxYO588

        And I agree with you: “May all of them (and their families) never be shown a scintilla of mercy. Gah!!!”

        • Rita your efforts put ours to shame. Thank you for all you do and have a long and healthy life.

        • First they come for the Saturday People…then for the Sunday people….

          Given enough time and free movement, they will come for all of us. Anyone who doubts this is already playing the useful idiot (or worse).

          No one is exempt, and it is incumbent upon all free people of all faiths (even pagans, atheists and agnostics) to unite against Islam. Anything less may lead to the end of civilization as we know it.

          Please permit me to echo Richard’s praise. Good on ya, Gel!

  2. Saudi mufti warns of ‘depravity’ of cinema, concerts (alaraby, Jan 15, 2017)
    https://www.alaraby.co.uk/english/news/2017/1/15/saudi-mufti-warns-of-depravity-of-cinema-concerts

    “Saudi Arabia’s highest-ranking cleric has warned of the “depravity” of cinemas and music concerts, saying they would corrupt morals if allowed in the ultra-conservative kingdom.

    “We know that singing concerts and cinemas are a depravity,” Grand Mufti Abdulaziz al-Sheikh said in a television interview cited by Sabq news website late Friday.

    The head of the Saudi supreme council of clerics was responding to a question about the plans of the kingdom’s General Authority for Entertainment to license concerts and study opening cinemas.

    He warned that cinemas “might show movies that are libertine, lewd, immoral and atheist, because they rely on films imported to change our culture,” according to Sabq.

    He said there is “no good” in singing concerts, insisting that music entertainment and opening cinemas represent a “call for mixing between sexes”.

    “At the beginning they would assign areas for women, but then both men and women will end up in one area. This corrupts morals and destroys values,” he said.

    However, “entertainment through cultural and scientific media is okay,” he said, urging the authority “not to open doors for evil.”…”

    On the day of President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration protesters are planning an anti-capitalist march, road blockades and disruptions to inauguration balls. The protests will likely include property destruction, a source with intimate knowledge of the protest plans told The Daily Caller Friday.

    The blockades are not limited to roads but will also be at every security checkpoint, the source said. The source added that the protesters blockading each checkpoint will represent a different liberal cause such as climate change or money in politics.

    A group called #DisruptJ20 is the most active in the planned protests for the inauguration.

    Organizers for #DisruptJ20 are planning to kick off the inauguration protests on Jan. 18 with a gay dance party outside of Vice President-elect Mike Pence’s Chevy Chase, MD home.

  5. Russia says facing increased cyber attacks from abroad

    MOSCOW (Reuters) – Russia is facing increased cyber attacks from abroad, a senior security official was quoted on Sunday as saying, responding to Western accusations that Moscow is aggressively targeting information networks in the United States and Europe.

    U.S. intelligence agencies say Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a cyber campaign aimed at boosting Donald Trump’s electoral chances by discrediting his Democrat rival Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential campaign.

    Russia has dismissed the accusations as a “witch-hunt”.

    “Recently we have noted a significant increase in attempts to inflict harm on Russia’s informational systems from external forces,” Nikolai Patrushev, secretary of Russia’s Security Council, told the Rossiiskaya Gazeta daily, according to excerpts of an interview to be published in full on Monday.

    BOGOR (Reuters) – Japan Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said during his visit to Indonesia on Sunday that it is important to solve the South China Sea conflict peacefully.

    “About the South China Sea conflict, we assert the importance of the principle of solving a dispute peacefully,” Abe said after meeting Indonesian President Joko Widodo at the presidential palace in Bogor.

  7. This is a must read article, it shows the Clinton fingerprints all over the Trump Dossier as we showing former reporters being the slime merchants for hire that worked to develop the dossier. It started our as a opposition research for dirt commissioned by a Republican who dropped the project when it became obvious that Trump was going to win the nomination. That is when the Democrats stepped in and started paying to continue the research. Other political slime jobs have been done bu the company that did this one.

    Hillary, a UAE sheikh, and the guy who produced the Trump ‘dossier’
    By J.E. Dyer January 15, 2017

    It just wouldn’t be a shady international scandal these days if it didn’t map back to Hillary Clinton, peculiar foreign contacts, and a good computer hacking.

    And sure enough, each of those trendy patterns shows up in the backstory of Fusion GPS, the intelligence “research” company founded by former Wall Street Journal reporter Glenn Simpson, which was identified late last week as the source of the highly dubious dossier on Donald Trump.

    Briefly, regarding the Trump dossier: Fusion GPS was reportedly hired in September 2015, by an unnamed Republican (whether donor or candidate remains undisclosed), to investigate Trump’s potential ties to organized crime. Sometime between that date and June 2016, the former British intelligence man, Christopher Steele, entered the picture, working for Fusion GPS to pursue a Russian-connections angle. After the RNC nominated Trump in July, Republican support to the dossier effort stopped, but the Democrats stepped in and took over shepherding it along.

    Trump presidency: A project to liberate America
    By J.E. Dyer January 14, 2017

    As we count down to the inauguration of President-Elect Donald Trump on 20 January, it’s important to keep something in focus. That something is the exceptional importance of what Trump’s unorthodox candidacy and persona are freeing America from, with each day that he stands firm against the onslaught mounted against him, and cannot be taken down.

    Many Americans who prefer a Republican in the White House, and are glad that Hillary Clinton won’t be taking office, would never have made Trump their top choice. Many of those people are certain Trump is going to disappoint his supporters on various policy issues as time goes by. Many of them are just disgusted by Trump’s comparatively aggressive, confrontational demeanor with his critics – tame, to be sure, by pro wrestling standards, but really out there, as presidential deportment goes.

    The folks I’ve just described are typical old-consensus conservatives. And I want them to know: I feel you. I really do: I don’t just understand where you’re coming from; I can inhabit it, with visceral resonance. Trump does a lot of things in a way I wouldn’t do them. And I fully expect Trump to disappoint me on some policy issues – although I also think he will do things I agree with.

  9. President Trump will immediately restore bust of Churchill Obama removed from Oval Office
    By Rusty Weiss January 15, 2017

    One of the first “statements” Barack Obama made as president in 2009 was to quietly send a bust of Winston Churchill that graced the Oval Office back to the British — and then (shades of eight years of deception to come) lie about having done so. (Later, the administration was forced to admit the story was true.) In any case, the banishment of the sculpture, which had initially been presented to President George W. Bush in 2001, was seen as a slap in the face to one America’s great allies.

    Now, topping President-elect Donald Trump’s to-do list once elected is to undo that slight. Trump has already taken steps to mend fences symbolically by restoring the Churchill bust to its place of honor in the White House.

  10. Obama’s Mideast Legacy Is One of Tragic Failure

    by Alan M. Dershowitz
    January 15, 2017 at 4:00 am

    https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/9774/obama-mideast-legacy

    The Middle East is a more dangerous place after eight years of the Obama presidency than it was before. The eight disastrous Obama years follow eight disastrous George W. Bush years, during which that part of the world became more dangerous as well. So have many other international hot spots.

    In sum, the past 16 years have seen major foreign policy blunders all over the world, and most especially in the area between Libya and Iran — that includes Israel, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Turkey and the Gulf.

    With regard to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, the Obama policies have made the prospects for a compromise peace more difficult to achieve. When Israel felt that America had its back — under both Presidents Clinton and George W. Bush — they offered generous proposals to end settlements and occupation in nearly all of the West Bank.

    Tragically the Palestinian leadership — first under Yasser Arafat and then under Mahmoud Abbas — did not accept either offers from Israel Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Clinton in 2000-2001, nor Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s offer in 2008. Now they are ignoring current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s open offer to negotiate with no preconditions

    • Obama has had three failures in the MIddle East, 1) He hasn’t succeeded in destroying ISrael, 2) He hasn’t succeeded in putting a Sharia based government in Egypt, 3) He hasn’t succeeded in creating Shiite and Sunni Caliphates in the Middle East, meaning there are still secular governments in several of the Middle Eastern Islamic nations. Other then that he has succeeded beautifully, he has created chaos, terror and war which he seems to want.

      • Obama has had three failures in the Middle East…

        Of course few, if any, on that side of the aisle are willing to admit that, in reality, 0bama’s biggest and most conspicuous failure is … himself.

  11. CIA head John Brennan warns Trump to watch his tongue (BBC, Jan 15, 2017)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38630016

    “Outgoing CIA Director John Brennan has warned US President-elect Donald Trump to avoid off-the-cuff remarks once he takes office.

    He said spontaneity was not in the interests of national security.

    Mr Trump is known for regularly making broad pronouncements on issues of national importance on his Twitter feed.

    Mr Brennan also said that Mr Trump did not fully appreciate Russia’s capabilities or intentions.

    “I think Mr Trump has to understand that absolving Russia of various actions that it’s taken in the past number of years is a road that he, I think, needs to be very, very careful about moving down,” he said.

    Mr Brennan’s remarks, in an interview for Fox News Sunday, come a week after the release of a US intelligence report which said Russian President Vladimir Putin had likely attempted to influence the election.

    Mr Trump is considered to have underplayed for months the conclusions of the intelligence community that Moscow hacked Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s campaign. He only accepted them at a news conference on Wednesday.

    Meanwhile both the Kremlin and Mr Trump’s team have denied reports in the Sunday Times newspaper that the two sides were planning a summit between Mr Trump and Mr Putin in the Icelandic capital Reykjavik.

    Reykjavik was the venue for a summit in 1986 – near the end of the Cold War – between Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev, the then US and Soviet leaders.

    Mr Brennan said “talking and tweeting” was not an option for Mr Trump, who takes office next Friday.

    “Spontaneity is not something that protects national security interests and so therefore when he speaks or when he reacts, just make sure he understands that the implications and impact on the United States could be profound,” he said.

    “It’s more than just about Mr Trump. It’s about the United States of America.”

    The CIA director also took Mr Trump to task for accusing the intelligence services of leaking an unverified dossier which suggests Russian security officials have compromising material on him, which could make him vulnerable to blackmail.

    “What I do find outrageous is equating the intelligence community with Nazi Germany,” he said, referring to a tweet by Mr Trump last Wednesday.

    “There is no basis for Mr Trump to point fingers at the intelligence community for leaking information that was already available publicly.”

    The president-elect said the claims were “fake news” and “phoney stuff”.

    Russia also denies the existence of the dossier and says allegations that it ran a hacking campaign to influence the elections are “reminiscent of a witch-hunt”.”

    • Coming from some one that routinely changed intel briefs so they were in like with the Presidents delusions this a slap in the face of Donald Trump. He is counting on us forgetting about the 50+ analysts who signed a petition to Congress complaining about their assessments being changed and then they got blamed for not seeing the raise of ISIS. By doing this he proved that he placed his job above the safety of the US.

      • I’m obliged to wonder if any of these anti-Trump morons realize how such persistent and thoroughly counterproductive political attacks will merely reduce their own credibility (at least within this coming administration) to fecking ZERO?!?

    http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/754149/isis-extremists-jail-islamic-state-hate-preacher-anjem-choudary-undercover-police-syria

    “A PAIR of extremists with links to hate preacher Anjem Choudary are facing jail for their part in drumming up support for “vicious” Islamic State following a major undercover police operation.

    A covert officer infiltrated the Luton chapter of the banned group Al-Muhajiroun (ALM) and secretly recorded speeches over 20 months before police swooped to arrest them.

    At the meetings, attended by up to 80 people including young children, the group praised Islamic State and urged others to support the terror group and travel to Syria to fight.

    In one rant on July 2 2015, Mohammed Choudry, 23, spoke of “40 trucks driving down Oxford Street full of explosives”, the Old Bailey was told.

    He was heard to tell 40 people at the invitation-only meeting in the Bedfordshire town: “A wave is coming – either be a part of it or you drown … Either you like it or you don’t like it.”

    His co-defendant, Zaiur Rahman, 39, helped to organise a series of meetings in July 2015 held in a marquee in his back garden and at a nearby Anglican church in Luton.

    Following a retrial, Choudry, from Maidenhead, Berkshire, was found guilty of encouraging support for IS, while Rahman, of Ferndale Road, Luton, was convicted of three counts of arranging meetings in support of a banned organisation.

    Judge Michael Topolski QC told the pair: “You, Zaiur Rahman, and you, Mohammed Sufiyam Choudry, have been convicted unanimously by this jury of arranging meetings and speaking at a meeting in support of a vicious terrorist organisation whose members and supporters – just like you two – have hijacked and corrupted the principles and practices of an ancient and revered religion for its own ends and purposes.

    “You both will in due course be sentenced by me and can expect that sentence to be one of a term of imprisonment.”…”

    “DONALD Trump’s plans to relocate the US embassy in Israel to Jerusalem is an “assault” on all Muslims, according to the holy city’s grand mufti.

    Muhammed Hussein warned the President-elect that the Islamic world will “not remain silent” if he makes good on his pledge to move the embassy from Tel Aviv.

    http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/crisis-warnings-sound-eu-gears-migrant-wave-44791227

    “Tens of thousands of people seeking better lives are expected to trek across deserts and board unseaworthy boats in war-torn Libya this year in a desperate effort to reach European shores by way of Italy.

    More than 181,000 people, most so-called “economic migrants” with little chance of being allowed to stay in Europe, attempted to cross the central Mediterranean last year from Libya, Africa’s nearest stretch of coast to Italy. About 4,500 died or disappeared.

    Hundreds already have taken to the sea this month, braving the winter weather. In the latest reminder of the journey’s perils, more than 100 people were missing off Libya’s coast over the weekend after a migrant boat sunk.

    Some European leaders are warning of a fresh migration crisis when sea waters warm again and more people choose to put their lives in the hands of smugglers.

    “Come next spring, the number of people crossing over the Mediterranean will reach record levels,” Malta Prime Minister Joseph Muscat, whose country holds the European Union’s presidency, predicted. “The choice is trying to do something now, or meeting urgently in April, May…and try to do a deal then.”…”

      “Pope Francis demanded Sunday that “every possible measure” be taken to protect young refugees, as search and rescue efforts continued off Libya’s coast following the latest deadly Mediterranean migrant shipwreck.

      Italy’s coast guard said only four people survived the sinking of a migrant ship carrying around 100 people that went down 30 miles (49 kilometers) off the Libyan coast on Saturday. Only eight bodies have been recovered.

      In his noon blessing, Francis recalled that the theme of the church’s World Day of Migrants concerned the particular vulnerability of young migrants — “our young brothers” who often flee home alone and face “so many dangers.”

      “We must adopt every possible measure to guarantee young migrants protection and defense, as well as integration,” he said…”

      • Why doesn’t this skirt-wearing feeb put his money where his flapping gums are and house a few thousand of these “immigrants” in the Vatican. I’m sure there’s plenty of room available. That way, this sanctimonious sack of sh!t can enjoy the same “enrichment” being forced upon Europeans everywhere.

        Smarmy preaching by those who are totally insulated from the consequences of their own exhortations deserves nothing but the collective back of civilization’s hand.

    “Bahrain has executed three Shia men who were convicted of killing three police officers in a bomb attack in March 2014, the authorities say.

    They were killed by a firing squad on Sunday, state news agency BNA reports.

    Human rights officials say there are serious concerns that evidence may have been obtained under torture.

    But the Bahraini government, which rarely carries out executions, has said the decision was taken “in accordance with international law”.

    The executions of the three men, who Bahraini officials say were part of the listed terrorist group Saraya al-Ashtar, are the first since a 2011 uprising, led by the Shia majority, calling for greater political rights.

    The Sunni-ruled kingdom has escalated a crackdown on its Shia critics over the past year, including revoking the citizenship of the country’s most prominent Shia Muslim cleric…”

  17. Russia Has Proof Some States, Foreign Companies ‘Cooperate With Terrorists’ (sputniknews, Jan 15, 2017)
    https://sputniknews.com/russia/201701151049613942-russia-terrorists-states-patrushev/

    “Russia has proof that some states and influential foreign companies “cooperate with terrorists,” Russian Security Council’s Head Nikolai Patrushev said.

    “We continue obtaining new proof of several states’ and influential foreign and even transnational companies’ cooperation with terrorists. We are talking about purchases of oil and other raw material from terrorists, as well as about paying them for obtaining permits for production and transportation of goods in territories under their control,” Patrushev said in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta newspaper.

    He also said that “putting an end to this practice should be the goal of all countries which combat terrorism without an exception.”

    Patrushev also commented on Russia’s cooperation with other countries in the fight against terrorism. “First of all we managed to intensify the work in the framework of the United Nations Security Council. Russia contributed to the adoption of resolutions aimed at fighting against Daesh and other terrorist organizations, as well as against financing terrorism,” he said. Russia is going to continue work on eliminating the terrorist threat coming from the territory of Iraq and Syria, Patrushev said. “We will strive for continuation of joint work aimed at elimination of the terrorist threat coming from the Syrian and Iraqi territory, and ensuring close coordination of efforts between the states interested in stabilization of the situation in the Middle East.””

    To light synagogues is “Israelkritik”
    The summer of 2014 was one of the sad highlights in the new Jewshas established in Germany. As if it were not unbearable and shameful enough that the German policy of striking a shoulder with the UN for a long time in so-called Israeli criticism, up to the boycott appeal to crawl before oil-Islam, we were not only in the anti-Semitic march of Muslim men (PI reported here, here and here). Hasselparolen to “Jews in the gas” were then heard in our streets again. In this heated mood, three so-called “Palestinians” were also encouraged to set fire to the Wuppertal Synagogue in the night of July 29, 2014, and threw several Molotov cocktails into the entrance of the building. The trial against the Jews had now reached a terrifying end before the Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf.
    The perpetrators presented their clearly anti-Semitic act as a legitimate demonstration in the first trial before the Wuppertal district court, in order to draw attention to the war against Israel, affectionately called “Gaza conflict”. The court saw this and, at the same time, did not have any anti-Semitic motives in its verdict and left the assassins with one-year, three months and 200 hours of non-profit-making work again on the Jewish population of Germany hated by them. The district court Wuppertal later increased this sentence to a probation period of 23 months, or two years.
    The prosecutor’s office, on the other hand, filed a revision and demanded imprisonment. Now the decision fell, with the Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf rejecting the request for revision, and thus consented fully to the verdict.
    With this decision the German judiciary not only explains the prolonged arm of terror against Israel and the Jews, but also that the lighting of Jewish faith sites is not a serious threat but can be seen as a kind of harsh criticism.
    Not to think about what a “German Nazi”, who throws brands against an Islamic hate preaching (politcorrect: mosque), would flourish by the same justice. Especially if someone loses on the walkway in front of a mosque a bacon strip, the state protection is immediately switched on.
    Who, in addition to the Jews in the country, protects Germany from the damage inflicted on such credentials and reputation in the world and especially in Israel? And who is the people in whose name such judgments are made?

  19. Serbia-Kosovo train row escalates to military threat (BBC, Jan 15, 2017)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-38630152

    “Serbia has warned it will defend “every inch” of what it claims as its territory in neighbouring Kosovo.

    President Tomislav Nikolic accused Kosovo of seeking a war, after a train painted in Serbian colours and the words “Kosovo is Serbia” was prevented from crossing the Kosovan border.

    Kosovo saw the train as a deliberate provocation.

    As tensions grew, Mr Nikolic said that he would be willing to send the army to defend Serbs in Kosovo, if necessary.

    Kosovo, historically a province of Serbia, declared independence in 2008. It is recognised by the US and most EU countries but not by Serbia or its ally Russia.

    The train – heralded as an important transport link by Serbia – was the first direct link between the Serbian capital, Belgrade, and Mitrovica, in northern Kosovo, since 2008.

    Many of the remaining Serbs in Kosovo live around Mitrovica.

    Serbia said the slogan “Kosovo is Serbian” in many languages was a celebration of its cultural heritage, as were the Serbian Orthodox religious symbols adorning the inside, and the liberal use of the Serbian national colours.

    But Kosovo’s Prime Minister Isa Mustafa told reporters that the train had been stopped “to protect the country’s sovereignty” and that Kosovo would not allow “machines that will provoke with a message of occupation.”

    Kosovo had deployed police forces along the border to prevent the train crossing over – which forced President Nikolic to order a halt to the service.

    Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic alleged that Kosovan forces were planning to blow up the tracks, and accused them of playing “war games”.

    The incident has heightened tensions, causing protests by ethnic Serbs in Kosovo, and prompting Mr Nikolic to comment that the two nations had briefly been “on the brink of conflict”….”

  20. Politico: Ukrainian Officials Secretly Targeted Trump, Helped Clinton, During Election

    Politico is reporting that officials in the eastern European country of Ukraine are seeking ways to apologize to incoming President Donald Trump for their secretive efforts to help Hillary Clinton’s candidacy.

    Ukrainian officials assisted Clinton by publicly denigrating Trump’s fitness for office as well as pushing documents attempting to implicate Trump or his aides in corruption and by suggesting they were launching investigations into the purported allegations — only to stymie such investigations as the election neared — according to Politico’s January 11 article.

    Ukraine’s interference on Clinton’s behalf negatively affected the Trump campaign when accusations against Trump aide Paul Manafort helped cause him to quit the campaign, the online newser said.

    Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump backfire

    Kiev officials are scrambling to make amends with the president-elect after quietly working to boost Clinton.

    boosted by officials of a former Soviet bloc country.

    Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness for office. They also disseminated documents implicating a top Trump aide in corruption and suggested they were investigating the matter, only to back away after the election. And they helped Clinton’s allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisers, a Politico investigation found.

    A Ukrainian-American operative who was consulting for the Democratic National Committee met with top officials in the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington in an effort to expose ties between Trump, top campaign aide Paul Manafort and Russia, according to people with direct knowledge of the situation.

    The Ukrainian efforts had an impact in the race, helping to force Manafort’s resignation and advancing the narrative that Trump’s campaign was deeply connected to Ukraine’s foe to the east, Russia. But they were far less concerted or centrally directed than Russia’s alleged

    Around 250 supporters of the far-right Italian party New Force (Forza Nuova) gathered in front of the Peace Arch in Milan on Saturday, to protest against refugees coming to Italy.

    The nationalists held FN flags and ‘Forza Nuova, national pride.’ Party leader, Roberto Fiore, vowed that New Force would always be an obstacle to immigrants and declared that Italy’s “awakening” was going to take place soon. However he also praised “what is happening in Austria,” presumably referring to the increase of support the country’s right-wing Freedom Party has enjoyed recently, despite the same party losing the Austrian presidential elections twice in one year.

    SOT, Roberto Fiore, New Force leader (Italian): “Europe is waking up; what happened in the USA and Russia has to precede Rome and Italy’s awaking.”

    SOT, Roberto Fiore, New Force leader (Italian): “Where immigration goes on, it finds an obstacle, which is called Forza Nuova, you know it!”

    Crowd chanting (Italian): “Forza Nuova, national pride”

    SOT, Roberto Fiore, New Force leader (Italian): “You have to see what is happening in Austria and what is going to happen in Western Europe in the next months. People will be awakening.”

    In a December 16 Friday sermon titled “The Holocaust of Aleppo,” Jamaican Sheikh Abdullah Al-Faisal said that Aleppo fell because Allah was punishing Jabhat Al-Nusra and the FSA for their treachery against the Muslims and against the Caliph. Sheikh Al-Faisal, whose original name was Trevor William Forrest and who spent four years in a U.K. prison for murder and inciting hatred before being deported, said that if Allah had granted them victory, “they would dump Islam for a new religion called democracy.”

    In an address delivered at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Palestinian cleric Sheikh Abu Taqi Al-Din Al-Safafi said that Islamic scholars had preceded the West in great scientific achievements and that the 16th-century Ottoman seafarer Piri Reis had drawn a map that “astonished NASA” and had revealed that he had discovered the Americas prior to Columbus. Columbus, according to Sheikh Al-Safafi, had “stolen the manuscripts of the Muslim scholars,” . He further said that the West “are nothing but so-called ‘thieves’,” and that their contribution to science “has no spiritual, humanistic, or moral dimension” but is “utilized only in order to serve their devils – human and jinn – and in order to destroy humanity.” A video of his address was posted on the Internet on December 31.

    • If they made all of those great scientific discoveries how come they are in such a mess instead of running the world?

  26. reuters – Trump says Merkel made ‘catastrophic mistake’ with refugee policy

    U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said in a newspaper interview published on Sunday that German Chancellor Angela Merkel had made a “catastrophic mistake” with a policy that let a wave of more than one million migrants into her country.

    In a joint interview with the Times of London and the German newspaper Bild, Trump also said the European Union had become “a vehicle for Germany” and predicted that more EU member states would vote to leave the bloc as Britain did last June.

    “I think she made one very catastrophic mistake, and that was taking all of these illegals,” Trump said of Merkel, who in August 2015 decided to keep Germany’s borders open for refugees, mostly Muslims, fleeing war zones in the Middle East.

    “And nobody even knows where they come from. So I think she made a catastrophic mistake, very bad mistake,” Trump said, adding that he always had “great respect” for Merkel and that he still viewed her as one of the most important world leaders.

    Merkel faces a tough re-election battle in September.

    Trump, who takes office on Friday, campaigned for president on promises of banning Muslims from entering the United States or imposing more severe restrictions on migrants from countries or regions with high levels of militant Islamist activity.

    Trump said Germany had only recently gotten a clear impression of the consequences of Merkel’s migration policy, without elaborating.

    Last month, a 24-year-old Tunisian failed asylum-seeker drove a truck into a Berlin Christmas market, killing 12 people, before fleeing to Italy, where he was shot dead by police.

    The attacker, Anis Amri, came to Germany in July 2015 after having spent four years in jail in Italy. That means he entered Europe before Merkel’s August 2015 border decision.

    In the interview, Trump said British voters would not have approved leaving the European Union had Europe not been engulfed in a migrant crisis.

    “I do believe this, if they (the EU countries) hadn’t been forced to take in all of the refugees, so many … I think that you wouldn’t have a Brexit,” Trump said.

    “It probably could have worked out but this was the final straw, this was the final straw that broke the camel’s back.”

    Turning to his family’s German roots, Trump said he was proud to have had ancestors from Germany and that he loved Germany. Asked about character traits he would link to his German roots, Trump said he liked order and strength.

    The United States is Germany’s most important trading partner, and Trump’s protectionist talk has unnerved business leaders and exporters in Europe’s biggest economy.

    In the interview, Trump said the United States will impose a border tax of 35 percent on cars that German carmaker BMW plans to build at a new plant in Mexico and export to the U.S. market.

  27. ‘Distress’ But No Apology For Epiphany Service Quran Reading Denying Divinity of Christ

    The head of the Scottish Episcopal Church has said he is “deeply distressed at the widespread offence” caused by the reading of a passage from the Quran denying the divinity of Christ during an Epiphany service, but no apology has been issued.

    In a statement posted to his blog site, David Chillingworth, the Primus of the Church appeared to strongly rebuke Kelvin Holdsworth, the Provost of St Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral, Glasgow, where the reading took place, arguing that interfaith work, “like all works of reconciliation, must be founded on truth.” He continued: “We approach others with open hearts but we stand in the truth of the gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.”

    However, no apology for the reading has been forthcoming; Chillingworth reasoning that the “The decisions which have led to the situation in St Mary’s Cathedral are a matter for the Provost and the Cathedral community.”

    He added that the church will “bring together all those who are involved in the development of interfaith relations” to explore how the work can be carried out “in ways which will command respect.”

    Holdsworth himself is unrepentent, writing in a blog post that “local Muslim friends” were invited “as we were reflecting on the arrival of the mysterious Magi at Bethlehem”. The significance is unclear, as the Magi, predating Islam by some six centuries, were Zoroastrian.

    He continued: “Having a recitation from the Qur’an in a Christian cathedral in worship is not a new thing.

    “So it has indeed come as something of a surprise to find accounts of last week’s service appearing online and stirring up the most most incredible pot of hatred I’ve ever encountered.

    “This same Qur’anic reading has been given before in services and no outcry has happened. Is it because this is in a cathedral run by a gay man? Is it because the recitation was given by a young woman?

    “Clearly those things are factors as they feature in some of the abuse.”

    Confirming that some of the messages received by the church had been reported to Police Scotland, Holdsworth added: “They assure me that intolerance and prejudice will not be tolerated in Scotland. To put it simply, I thank God for them and their work.”

    The matter came to light after St Mary’s posted a video of verses of the Quran being sung in Arabic during a service to Facebook, along with a message calling it a “wonderful event.” Both the Facebook post and a YouTube version of the reading have since been removed by the Cathedral, after it provoked widespread anger and criticism from Christians, who pointed out that the verses chosen denied the divinity of Jesus Christ as the Son of God.

    The reading can still be viewed elsewhere on Facebook via Madinah Javed, who sang the passages during the service.

    There was further anger as it emerged that a translation of the verses printed in the Order of Service and handed out to congregants omitted the last two, in which the denial came, leading to confusion.

    Commenting on matter on the Archbishop Cranmer blogsite, the Rev’d Dr Gavin Ashenden, Chaplain to the Queen, said: “It’s hard to know what was in the mind of the Provost of Glasgow Cathedral when he arranged for this assault on Jesus and the apostles.

    “The accusation of lying or deception [contained within the verses] was not just directed towards Jesus and the Apostles; but is also […] to those, too, who have been martyred at the hands of Islam, because they refused to renounce this deception when confronted with it.”

    Refuting Holdworth’s claims that the reading was part of an interfaith dialogue between Islam and Christianity, Ashenden continued:

    “There was no dialogue in the Epiphany Eucharist; only a refutation of what Christians hold most dear and upon which salvation depends.

    “In over 30 years of interfaith conversations, I have never yet come across a Muslim community which allowed those passages in the Gospels acclaiming the divinity of Christ to be read in Friday prayers.”

  28. US: Mosque Burned in Seattle (moroccoworldnews, Jan 15, 2017)
    https://www.moroccoworldnews.com/2017/01/205891/us-mosque-burned-seattle/

    “A mosque located on the outskirts of Seattle was badly burned Saturday and a 37-yea-old man has been arrested. Members of the Islamic Centre of Eastside, otherwise known at the Bellevue Majid, are shocked and heartbroken over the burning of their mosque in the community of Bellevue, in the state of Washington.

    While 50 percent of the building has been destroyed, authorities and mosque officials are grateful to report that no-one was injured n the fire. Fire crews were able to send half of the building after fighting flames which, at times, reached 40 feet in height.

    Police have arrested 37-year-old Isaac Wayne Wilson on a charge of felony malicious mischief after finding him laying on the ground behind the mosque, where most of the fire damage occurred.

    While being detained, Wilson is being denied bail. While the incident is not currently being investigated as a hate crime, police are searching for a motive. Officials from the FBI, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have joined the investigation.

    Deputy prosecutor, Mike Hogan, has been quoted saying “the suspect had prior contacts with the mosque” and that Wilson had previously been arrested for causing a disturbance at the mosque, though he did not elaborate on the nature of that incident.

    The Council on American-Islamic Relations in Washington has issued a post on Facebook urging people not to jump to conclusions as to the suspect’s motive in this crime. “Please give authorities time to investigate.”…”

    “Egypt’s interior ministry said it has killed a leading figure in the terrorist group Ansar Beit Al-Maqdis in a raid on a house in North Sinai, in a statement on the ministry’s Facebook page on Sunday.

    The ministry said police received information on the location of Hamdan Hussein, born in 1978 in North Sinai, who resided in Al-Arish City.

    The tip, according to the ministry, revealed that Hussein was responsible for planting a number of roadside bombs that targeted security vehicles and leading an attack last week on a security checkpoint in front of Al-Arish’s general hospital that killed a policeman.

    Once police received permission from the state security prosecutor to raid Hussein’s house, they attempted to arrest him at his home.

    According to the ministry’s statement, Hussein opened fire on police, prompting them to shoot and kill him.

    An automatic rifle and bullets were found in his possession…”

  30. Facebook launches battle against ‘fake news’ in Germany (thelocal, Jan 15, 2017)
    https://www.thelocal.de/20170115/facebook-launches-battle-against-fake-news-in-germany

    “Social media giant Facebook announced on Sunday that it would introduce new measures to combat fake news in Germany, as Europe’s largest economy and most populous nation enters an election year.

    “It’s important to us that the reports and news posted on Facebook are reliable,” a blog post on the Silicon Valley firm’s German website read.

    German politicians have warned that populist parties and foreign nations could use fake news to try and influence parliamentary elections slated for September or October.

    Facebook’s new German initiative targets “unambiguously wrong reports” being shared on the social media platform.

    The firm said it would offer a simpler reporting process for users to flag suspected fake news, display warnings next to statements identified as false by independent fact-checking organisations, and cut off advertising revenue to fake news sites presenting themselves as real news organisations.

    Stories flagged with a fake news warning will not be eligible to be converted into an ad seen by other users or “promoted” into other users’ feeds for a fee.

    “We think that independent and transparent fact-checking can be a powerful instrument for journalism,” Facebook said.

    Nonprofit investigative journalism organisation Correctiv will be the first fact-checking partner in Germany, the firm added, saying that they are “confident” of adding other news organisations in future.

    Facebook’s latest measures come just days after it announced the creation of a “Journalism Project” aimed at boosting the credibility of the information it circulates.”

  32. Piers Akerman: Unholy matrimony and the Islamic culture’s hidden stain
    The Sunday Telegraph (Australia)
    January 14, 2017
    AS much as it may discomfort the multi-culti crowd, Australia must realise that there are some appalling aspects of ­Islamic culture that can never be embraced here.
    In the 2015-16 financial year alone, the Australian Federal Police investigated 69 ­incidents of forced marriage, more than double that investigated the previous year.
    Just last week, an imam, a Muslim religious leader, faced a Melbourne court after allegedly forcing a child into marriage, while the 34-year-old “husband” of the minor appeared via videolink charged with sexually penetrating a child under the age of 16.
    Ibrahim Omerdic, 61, appeared before the Melbourne Magistrates Court on Friday over an alleged forced marriage at Noble Park, in Melbourne’s southeast, along with the husband, who cannot be identified. The latter is also charged with being a party to a forced marriage.
    The court heard that a DVD of the ceremony being conducted at a mosque last year may form part of the evidence. ­ According to The Weekend Australian no person has been convicted of arranging or being involved in a forced marriage in Australia despite the number of referrals of possible offences soaring since 2013, when the act was criminalised, according to data from the Attorney-General’s Department.
    In 2013-14, the Australian Federal Police received 11 referrals of allegations of forced marriage. The AFP received 33 in 2014-15 and 69 in 2015-16.
    Mr Omerdic is the imam of the Bosnia-Herzegovina Islamic Centre and Mosque at Noble Park and reportedly said in 2005 that there was no “clear proof” Osama bin Laden was behind the 9/11 terror attacks.
    The Victorian Board of Imams released a statement earlier this week condemning marriages that are illegal in Australia.
    “Imams are advised to meet both the bride and groom in person prior to the nikah ­(Islamic marriage) ceremony to ensure they are of marriageable age and both are consenting to the marriage,” the statement said.
    “As Australian Muslims, we are required to observe and ­respect the laws of Australia.”
    The average reader might well assume that the Victorian Board of Imams aren’t ­unhappy with forced child marriages in other countries. Little wonder that young Australian Muslim girls are at risk of being spirited abroad to marry older men.http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/opinion/piers-akerman-unholy-matrimony-and-the-islamic-cultures-hidden-stain/news-story/beb9cb07f083cbcec836c2c855eab896
