Europe to CRUMBLE? Continent to face CIVIL WAR within 30 YEARS, Belgian historian claims (express, Feb 4, 2017)
http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/763004/Europe-civil-war-European-Union-David-Engels-authoritarian-30-years-migrant-crisis
“A CIVIL WAR will erupt in Europe in as little as three decades, a Belgian historian has claimed.
David Engels, a historian at the Free University of Brussels, drew parallels between Europe and the fall of the Roman Republic to make the alarming prediction.
He said: “In 20 to 30 years Europe will have become an authoritarian or imperial state, after a phase resembling civil war and decay.
“I expect a civil war, which will force a fundamental social and political reformation in Europe, whether we like it or not, following the example of the decaying Roman Republic in the first century BC.”
Mr Engels has claimed Europe would teeter towards authoritarianism since 2011 – and the ongoing migrant crisis has now added weight to his warnings.
The 37-year-old added that the parallels between the European Union and Julius Caesar’s equivalent are “so massive, so obvious and that has been the case for decades”.
Mr Engels argued the many factors that led to the destruction of Caesar’s empire are afflicting Europe today, including individualism, the decline of traditional culture, fundamentalism and rampant crime.
He also pointed out the splits between the elite – the modern-day Roman Senators – and populist movements that demanded the people be given a voice.
Politicians such as French presidential frontrunner Marine LePen and Dutch right-winger Geert Wilders rise to prominence as a result of such populism, Mr Engels added.
On the migrant crisis, Mr Engels said while important, it isn’t the only issue.
He added: “The present population movements are only one of the many symptoms of our present spirit, characterised by a strange mixture of cosmopolitanism, self-doubt, calculus, materialism and bad conscience.
“I’m afraid of that but it would be cowardly to close my eyes just because you do not want to see reality.”
The historian said although the civil war is unavoidable, it is unlikely to take the form of conventional warfare.
Mr Engels said the civil war will instead manifest itself in ways such at the 50 no-go areas in Sweden formed as a result of violent crime, or in Brussels where suburbs such as Molenbeek were able to hide Paris terrorist Salah Abdeslam from police for months.”
The headline is very misleading, the civil war/s will occur much sooner and in 30 years (or longer) Europe will become an authoritarian disaster.
1) The EU is already an Imperial authoritarian disaster that is falling apart because of their lack if care about what the European people think.
2) The population movement in Europe has been created by the Eurocrats working to destroy the nation states.
3) He is assuming that the EU is going to win the civil war/s instead of falling apart.
What he is predicting is strongman rule coming to Europe combined with the Islamic invaders being allowed to stay. This will require that all of Europe become the Balkans with the attendant violence and long term hatred. This future is based on the idea that the Europeans won’t get mad or scared enough to use massive forced deportation and or more violent means of removing the invaders. Since the left has spend so much time, money and effort in preventing any resistance to the invasion this is a pipe dream, we are already seeing the resistance build and groups like Golden Dawn are forming and getting ready to take to the field in attacking all they think are unwelcome in their nations.
Iran ‘biggest state sponsor of terrorism’: Mattis (france24, Feb 4, 2017)
http://www.france24.com/en/20170204-iran-biggest-state-sponsor-terrorism-mattis
“US Defense Secretary James Mattis said Saturday that Iran was the world’s biggest state sponsor of terrorism, as President Donald Trump slapped fresh sanctions on the country’s weapons procurement network.
“As far as Iran goes, this is the single biggest state sponsor of terrorism in the world,” Mattis said at a press conference in Tokyo, but added that the US had no plans to increase troop numbers in the Middle East in response.
“It does no good to ignore it. It does no good to dismiss it and at the same time I don’t see any need to increase the number of forces we have in the Middle East at this time,” he said.
“We always have the capability to do so but right now I don’t think it’s necessary.”
US officials said that the new sanctions, announced on Friday, were in response to Iran’s ballistic missile test this week and its support for Huthi rebels in Yemen, who recently targeted a Saudi warship…”

The Anna Raccon blog has become silent due to the illness of cancer.
Over a decade ago she formed part of my earliest reading.

I seem to remember why I drifted away from this Metropolitan Sett…
“Trump, to me, represents the voice of ‘todger’ based systems. Clinton represented the voice of ‘intellectual’ systems. They are both perfectly valid methods of dealing with the world. There are winners and losers with both systems. I don’t have a problem with either – but you can’t have the two operating at the same time. Chaos results.”
The ‘todger’ system. The reproductive system of the animal kingdom where sexual energy is used in business and art that is the antitheisis to our present anally and vaginally responsive Socialist System.
Or the intellectual system of Clinton that is anti-intellectualizm.
Not much of an analysis.
Reading through that blog a little, I understand that it must have left an empty place for you, Perfectchild.
…and the US economy is doing ok now? Obama created many part-time service-sector jobs and called himself a success! In fact, the truth is the opposite. He did nothing to help manufacturing while supporting anti-business man-made global warming nonsense.
Politically-driven zero-bound interest rates disallow proper price discovery in all markets. This is because the normal measuring stick for all value, the US ten-year bond, is distorted by such rate manipulations. Without a properly-functioning ten year bond, no “thing” can be honestly evaluated. The market tries but you don’t really know what you have. Perhaps this is the greatest Keynesian crime committed by the Fed.
Given such criminal distortions, what is the average person to do? The simplest answer is to buy some physical silver or gold from a reputable dealer. Yes, it too is manipulated by paper metal pushers, but this won’t last forever. Do not buy value-added jewelry or numismatic coins. (The market could care less about your value-added stuff when it counts) Stick with physical bullion. Do not buy from banks, but rather from reputable dealers. Do not keep it in the safety deposit box of a bank, lest there be a financial crisis a la Cyprus, and your money is frozen or Bailed-In. If this happens it will be on a weekend when the bank is closed and you are helpless. The last Canadian budget written by the Harper government contained a buried clause that allowed for commercial banks to confiscate depositors’ money should the bank find itself insolvent, so don’t be so sure it can’t happen. Try to keep account deposits under 50k if possible. This is the approximate threshold for bail-ins. I welcome anyone to challenge my line of thinking, however my defense strategy costs nothing so you have nothing to lose.
I know economic matters are not so interesting to readers here so this is my last mention of the subject.

It has been a long time since I worked in Accounting but the main thing to remember right now is that for 8 years Obama and company manipulated the figures in ways that would have sent private individuals to the pen. Without spending more time digging then I want here is a broad overview:
1) Inflation was much higher then reported.
2) Unemployment was much higher then reported
3) GDP was lower then reported.
4) The Stock Market bears little relation to what the economy is doing, the stock prices show where money men think they can make money.
4a) The massive increase in stock prices over the past years is a massive bubble, expect it to bust.
5) Obama and company have re-inflated the housing bubble, this was done to make people think the economy was improving.
5a) The re-inflation of the housing prices has once again placed the banks in a precarious position.
6) Despite what the Propaganda media is telling us the US economy is the worlds strongest economy.
7) The European banks are in worse shape then reported and are now capable of giving all bank accounts haircuts if the governments think it is necessary to prevent economic collapse. This has caused massive capital flight to the US which is one of the reasons we are strong.
8) Many of the big rich and real big rich are buying estates in New Zealand planning to retreat there when/if the crash occurs.
Trump administration tightens Iran sanctions, Tehran hits back
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The Trump administration on Friday imposed sanctions on Iran, which it said were just “initial steps” and said Washington would no longer turn a “blind eye” to Iran’s hostile actions.
The sanctions on 25 individuals and entities were the opening salvo by President Donald Trump who has vowed a more aggressive policy against Tehran and came two days after the administration had put Iran ‘on notice’ following a ballistic missile test.
“The Trump Administration will no longer tolerate Iran’s provocations that threaten our interests,” National Security Advisor Michael Flynn said.
“The days of turning a blind eye to Iran’s hostile and belligerent actions toward the United States and the world community are over,” Flynn said in a White House statement.
Suggesting that more concrete action could follow if Iran does not curb its ballistic missile program and continues support in regional proxy conflicts, a senior administration official said the latest sanctions were the initial steps in response to Iran’s “provocative behavior”.
The administration was “undertaking a larger strategic review” of how it responds to Iran.
Iran denounced the sanctions as illegal and said it would impose legal restrictions on American individuals and entities helping “regional terrorist groups”, state TV quoted a Foreign Ministry statement as saying.
Those affected under the sanctions cannot access the U.S. financial system or deal with U.S. companies and are subject to secondary sanctions, meaning foreign companies and individuals are prohibited from dealing with them or risk being blacklisted by the United States.

Iran threatens to fire ‘roaring missiles’ at ‘enemies’ after Donald Trump Twitter spat
Iran is set to test fire another round of missiles, despite US sanctions
A commander in Iran’s Revolutionary Guards has said the country would use missiles to defend itself from its “enemies”.
It followed hostile rhetoric from US President Donald Trump, after he said on Twitter that Iran was “playing with fire” and announced fresh sanctions on the country.
Head of the Revolutionary Guards’ aerospace unit, Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, told Tasnim news agency: “We are working day and night to protect Iran’s security.

Iran: Tehran tests high-tech missile systems in defiance of US sanctions
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps held a military exercise to test missile and radar systems, in the northeastern province of Semnan, Saturday, with footage shown on state television a day after US President Donald Trump’s administration imposed sanctions on Tehran over the recent ballistic-missile test.
The Revolutionary Guards official website said that the aim of the military exercise was to “showcase the power of Iran’s revolution and to dismiss the sanctions.”
General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps of Aerospace Force (Farsi): “I can definitely announce that the skeleton of the sanctions of enemy’s defence has been smashed today; thanks God we are self-sufficient.”
States Are Cracking Down on the Biggest Protests Since ’60s
Republicans in statehouses across the U.S. are devising legal tools to regulate public dissent as demonstrators take to the streets to protest President Donald Trump in waves not seen since the Vietnam War.
At least 10 bills to limit protests have been introduced in recent months. North Dakota is considering protection for motorists who unintentionally kill protesters blocking roads. Washington state Senator Doug Ericksen would punish those who “disrupt our economy.” Next week, North Carolina Senator Dan Bishop will call for imprisoning people who intimidate ex-officials, after former Governor Pat McCrory was pursued down a Washington, D.C., alley by a group chanting “Shame!”

Mattis says no need for dramatic U.S. military moves in South China Sea
TOKYO (Reuters) – U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis on Saturday played down any need for major U.S. military moves in the South China Sea to contend with China’s assertive behavior, even as he sharply criticized Beijing for “shredding the trust of nations in the region.”
“At this time, we do not see any need for dramatic military moves at all,” Mattis told a news conference in Tokyo, stressing that the focus should be on diplomacy.
In his Senate confirmation hearing, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said China should not be allowed access to islands it has built in the contested South China Sea. The White House also vowed to defend “international territories” in the strategic waterway.
But how the United States would achieve that has been unclear, including whether it would have a military dimension.
Analysts have said Tillerson’s remarks, like those from the White House, suggested the possibility of U.S. military action, or even a naval blockade.
Such action would risk an armed confrontation with China, an increasingly formidable nuclear-armed military power. It is also the world’s second-largest economy and the prime target of Trump accusations of stealing American jobs.

Media misleading us again: House did NOT vote to let the mentally ill have guns
By J.E. Dyer February 4, 2017
This one is worth emphasizing with a feature post.
If you folks out there haven’t figured it out yet — and I know many of you have — the media have gone into something like a sort of frenzied, hyper-suggestible, mesmerized state. They seem unable to break a strange pattern of reporting things that manifestly are not true, and are exposed as untrue within hours.
Let’s say, to parse this most accurately, that the media are wording their headlines and introductory paragraphs to mislead the reader — even if they report correct information somewhere down in the body of an article. They don’t always provide correct information, but sometimes they do. They repeatedly put misleading headlines and blurbs up front, however.
They have done this again in the case of a House vote on Thursday to undo an Obama regulation that affected eligibility for gun ownership. The headline sentiments broadcast throughout the infosphere are well summarized in these two:

Robert Reich, former Clinton official, suggests Berkeley protest was false-flag attack – by the right
By J.E. Dyer February 3, 2017
You’ve got to love this guy. The ineffable Robert Reich, 70, who served as Bill Clinton’s Secretary of Labor from 1993 to 1997, is now a professor of public policy at UC-Berkeley. Sadly, he seems to have succumbed to the strange stupor that’s been sweeping so much of the left in the last few months. Whatever affliction it is, it causes sufferers to needlessly retail falsehoods that are bizarrely, epically easy to demonstrate.
On CNN Thursday night, Reich disappointed far-left Antifa radicals everywhere by hypothesizing that the violent protest at Berkeley this week, mounted against the scheduled appearance of gay right-winger Milo Yiannopoulos, was a con job by right-wing plotters. The purpose, in Reich’s view, was to “delegitimize liberals.”

Liberal professor delivers vile rant urging VIOLENCE against ‘Nazi’ Trump supporters (express, Feb 4, 2017)
http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/763086/Trump-protest-violence-left-wing-Nazis-right-wing
“A LIBERAL New York professor has been caught on camera unleashing a vile profanity-laden rant against “Nazi” reporters after condemning policemen.
Anti-Trump protesters shut down yet another right-wing sponsored lecture on a university campus amid growing tension across the US.
During the ensuing chaos, a liberal professor, who claimed to be from a New York-based university, shouted at “proud-boy” police officers who were failing at their jobs.
She hit out at conservative commentator, Gavin McInnes, who was due to speak to a group of College Republicans at NYU, and branded him a “Nazi”…”
Keep your musket clean and your powder dry because they are going to become necessary in the near future.
@ Richard: “…Whatever affliction it is, it causes sufferers to needlessly retail falsehoods…” perhaps he hates being under 1m50 tall and as vengeance has adapted this low level to his ethics and morals. I just read, he was also a little helper to “Jimmy Carter” …..say no more…. As to CNN – “Our POTUS” as “our yucky” calls him, was far too generous to them when he called them the “lowest of the low” or words to that effect.
That could be, he has a small mans arrogance which is usually developed to try and offset a feeling of inferiority.
I didn’t know he worked for Carter but that doesn’t surprise me, despite what the left wants us to think there is a small body of people the left will trust in positions of power. That is why the names keep coming up in different administrations.
Can you think if anything you can call CNN that doesn’t fall far short of describing their vilness?
SWEDEN ON EDGE: Now MPs DEMAND billion pound investment into police amid growing crisis (express, Feb 4, 2017)
http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/763096/Sweden-MPs-demand-billion-pound-investment-police-growing-crisis
“SWEDEN’S Prime Minister was brutalised in Parliament for allowing Sweden to crumble into a lawless state.
Right-wing politicians tore into Stefan Löfven earlier this week as they said more recourse and police were needed now as officers are losing the uphill battle secure law and order across the nation.
The Sweden Democrats (SD) and Moderate Party (MP) also lambasted the Swedish PM for the crisis within the police force.
Hitting back at the criticisms, Mr Löfven said his Government wanted to invest more money into the police as well grant recourses to combat the causes of crime.
Dissatisfied with the reply, MP leader Anna Kinberg Batra demanded the billion pound investment should be included in the spring budget – adding that anything else was just empty promises.
Mattias Karlsson SD took an even harsher approach to the continued problems within the country, which as been plagued with violent crimes, sex attacks and car fires, as he also insisted Police Commissioner Dan Eliassons should step down from the top role.
He said: “Right now we have a police commissioner who expresses greater sympathy with murderers than with the murder victim.
“So I wonder: how bad results does a Social Democratic police commissioner have to deliver to lose an SD-Government’s confidence?”
Mr Eliassons sparked widespread fury last year after he went on national television and expressed sympathy for a migrant who murdered asylum worker Alexandra Mezher….”

Sweden Wants to Ban Gender Segregated School Classes (abcnews, Feb 4, 2017)

“Sweden’s education minister wants to ban gender-segregated classes after last year’s public outcry after a Muslim school was allowed to separate boys and girls for gym classes.
Gustav Fridolin says “if there are problems by having boys and girls together, you should take care of the problem, not avoid it simply by separating the sexes.”
Fridolin, a member of Sweden’s center-left minority government, told Swedish Radio Saturday that too many schools “have been given temporary permission to have boys and girls apart for several years.”
Under present rules, gender-segregated classes are permissible.”
Now We Know: Those ‘Spontaneous’ Anti-Trump Airport Protests Weren’t Spontaneous At All
There was always something fishy about the outbreak of “spontaneous” protests at airports around the country in the immediate wake of President Trump’s executive order pausing visas and refugees from terror-prone countries.
Not that you’d suspect anything from the way they were covered. Nearly every story published over that weekend stated without equivocation that the protests were an unplanned and visceral reaction to Trump’s executive order. Examples:
“Spontaneous Protests Hit Airports Across America Following Trump’s Executive Order”
“Protest Grows ‘Out of Nowhere’ at Kennedy Airport”
“The senseless cruelty of the executive order has led to spontaneous protests at many of America’s major airports.”
“Word of the spontaneous demonstration was spread across social media.”
But these protests weren’t spontaneous at all. They were, in fact, the result of months of careful planning by hard-core left-wing activist groups.

France’s New Dreyfus Trial, a Jihad against the Truth

An important red line in France has just been crossed. In true dhimmi fashion, in a move reminiscent of both the Inquisition and the Dreyfus Trial, all of France’s so-called “anti-racist” organizations have joined a jihad against free speech and against truth.
On January 25, 2017, France’s “anti-racist” organizations — all of them, even the Jewish LICRA (International League against Racism and anti-Semitism) — joined the Islamist CCIF (Collective against Islamophobia) in court against Georges Bensoussan, a highly regarded Jewish historian of Moroccan extraction, and an expert on the history of Jews in Arab countries.

Six new Beatitudes proposed by Pope Francis.
http://www.catholicherald.co.uk/news/2016/11/01/six-new-beatitudes-proposed/
“-Blessed are those who remain faithful while enduring evils inflicted on them by others and forgive them from their heart.”
,Blessed are those who endure evils and do not judge those who by Blind Faith do what they do. For they can see the kingdom of Heaven.
“— Blessed are those who look into the eyes of the abandoned and marginalised and show them their closeness.”
Blessed are those who teach the poor to see, so they will notice the smallest step and not cry there is an unfair chasm.
“— Blessed are those who see God in every person and strive to make others also discover him.”
Blessed are those to see G_d is not in every person, and seek to invite them to repent to be freed of vice, find forgive and be reborn.
“— Blessed are those who protect and care for our common home.”
Blessed who do what is righteous and the outside will be well, but if they work on the outside they will build themselves a prison.
“— Blessed are those who renounce their own comfort in order to help others.”
Blessed are those who meet every moment of G_d. They do not despise their own blessings or sactify the misfortunes of others.
“— Blessed are those who pray and work for full communion between Christians.”
Blessed are those who do not pray like pagans, for G_d knows everything we say and do, and work to a full communion of souls.
This Pope has laid snares to purgetory. Another AntiChrist among sects of AntiChrists.

ITALY -Unheard-of since the Papal States fell: Rome covered in posters critical of the Pope
Rome woke up this Saturday with something quite new, and very old, in its streets: posters throughout the City (in the style of the old “pasquinate”) critical of the Pope.
In English, from the Romanesco-inspired Italian:
Ah Francis, you have intervened in Congregations, removed priests, decapitated the Order of Malta and the Franciscans of the Immaculate, ignored Cardinals… but where is your mercy?
These were common at the time of the Papal States (before the fall of Porta Pia and the full unification of Italy in 1870): not for religious reasons, but rather for political complaints, since the Popes were also the secular rulers of the Pontifical territories.
Since then, these public criticisms of Pontiffs mostly disappeared in the City, considering the new Italian authorities were now those responsible for the secular government of the old papal territories, and that the Pope remained responsible only for religious matters. They still show up all the time against Italian politicians.
But when, by common Roman consent, the most tyrannical Pontiff since the Renaissance, still has the gall of speaking under the name of mercy (!!!!), the humor of the Roman people does not remain silent when faced with this charade.

USA: Seattle judge issues nationwide ruling against Trump’s travel ban
Seattle Federal Judge, James L. Robart, issued a temporary nationwide ruling against US President Donald Trump’s travel ban on nationals of seven Muslim-majority countries, in Seattle on Friday. The ruling was made at the request of Washington and Minnesota states.
“The state has met its burden in demonstrating immediate and irreparable injury,” Robart said, before adding that “this temporary restraining order is granted on a nationwide basis and prohibits enforcement of Sections 3c, 5a, 5b, 5c, and 5e of the Executive Order at all United States borders and ports of entry pending further orders from this court.”
On Monday, a lawsuit challenging key provisions of Trump’s order was filed in the Seattle federal court. If the lawsuit wins, the executive order could be permanently invalidated nationwide.

DAILY CALLER EXCLUSIVE: House Intelligence IT Staffers Fired In Computer Security Probe
Three [ Muslim ] brothers who managed office information technology for members of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and other lawmakers were abruptly relieved of their duties on suspicion that they accessed congressional computer networks without permission.
Brothers Abid, Imran, and Jamal Awan were barred from computer networks at the House of Representatives Thursday, The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group has learned.
Three members of the intelligence panel and five members of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs were among the dozens of members who employed the suspects on a shared basis. The two committees deal with many of the nation’s most sensitive issues, information and documents, including those related to the war on terrorism.
Also among those whose computer systems may have been compromised is Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the Florida Democrat who was previously the target of a disastrous email hack when she served as chairman of the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 campaign.
The brothers are suspected of serious violations, including accessing members’ computer networks without their knowledge and stealing equipment from Congress.
Jamal handled IT for Rep. Joaquin Castro, a Texas Democrat who serves on both the intelligence and foreign affairs panels.
“As of 2/2, his employment with our office has been terminated,” Castro spokeswoman Erin Hatch told TheDCNF Friday.
Jamal also worked for Louisiana Democrat Rep. Cedric Richmond, who is on the Committee on Homeland Security.
Imran worked for Reps. Andre Carson, an Indiana Democrat, and Jackie Speier, a California Democrat. Carson and Speier are members of the intelligence committee. Spokesmen for Carson and Speier did not respond to TheDCNF’s requests for comments. Imran also worked for the House office of Wasserman-Schultz.
Then-Rep. Tammy Duckworth, an Illinois Democrat, employed Abid for IT work in 2016. She was a member of House committees dealing with the armed services, oversight, and Benghazi. Duckworth was elected to the Senate in November, 2016. Abid has a prior criminal record and a bankruptcy.
Abid also worked for Rep. Lois Frankel, a Florida Democrat who is member of the foreign affairs committee.
The three men are “shared employees,” meaning they are hired by multiple offices, which split their salaries and use them as needed for IT services. It is up to each member to fire them from working.
A criminal investigation into five unnamed people began late last year related to serious and potentially illegal violations of House IT policies, Politico reported Thursday. Chiefs of staff for the members were briefed Thursday by the Sergeant-at-Arms.
Capitol Police spokeswoman Eva Malecki said the investigation was still ongoing, and arrests have not been made but staff were “asked to update their security settings.”
Buzzfeed reported Friday that one of the affected members claimed “they said it was some sort of procurement scam, but now I’m concerned that they may have stolen data from us, emails, who knows.”
Jamal did not return a request for comment from TheDCNF at a personal email address, while emails to House addresses in the three mens’ names bounced back Friday.
Buzzfeed reported that the Sergeant-at-Arms told staff that the subjects were four men who were brothers and one woman. It did not name them.
Another man, Omar Awan, is a senior IT specialist for the House’s Chief Administrative Officer. An email to his House address did not bounce back Friday, but did not receive a response.
Abid, Imran and Jamal share a house in Lorton, Virginia, that is owned by Hina R. Alvi, a woman. Alvi is also a House IT employee who works for many of the same members as the three brothers, as well as the House Democratic Caucus.
Signs of trouble have long been visible in public records. The Congressional Credit Union repossessed Abid’s car in 2009, and he declared bankruptcy in 2012, facing multiple lawsuits.
Security-sensitive jobs typically require background checks for credit and legal problems that can create pressures to cash in on access to secret information and documents.
Alvi has multiple second mortgages. She did not respond to TheDCNF’s request for comment.
Jamal, who public records indicate is only 22 years old and first began working in the House when he was 20, was paid nearly $160,000 a year, or three times the average House IT staff salary, according to InsideGov, which tracks congressional salaries. Abid was paid $161,000 and Imran $165,000.

Father of Louvre attack suspect: My son is innocent

Le Louvre terror attack: Father of alleged attacker Abdallah Reda el-Hamahmy insists son is not an Islamist extremist
Suspect was shot by soldiers at the entrance to the art gallery after attacking one with a machete
The father of the man accused of attempting to carry out a terror attack on the Louvre museum in Paris has denied he belonged to any Islamist groups.
Abdallah el-Hamahmy, 29, was shot four times by soldiers after attacking one of them with a machete when he was denied entrance to the shopping centre next to the famed gallery on Friday morning.
The Egyptian national, who arrived in Paris last week on a tourist visa issued in Dubai, is currently in hospital but his condition is no longer being described as life-threatening.
One soldier suffered minor injuries to his scalp.
Francois Hollande, the French President, said there was “no doubt” al-Hamahmy intended to carry out a terror attack.
Parisian police said he had been carrying a bag with a second machete and spray cans filled with paint but no explosives.
His father said el-Hamahmy, who had no criminal record or known links to extremist organisations, was a “very normal young man”.
Reda el-Hamahmy said he was shocked to learn of his son’s involvement in the attack and found out the news from Facebook.
He told Reuters: “Is he alive? Is he dead? Was it really him?.
“For them to say in the end that he is a terrorist is nonsense… this is a cover up so they don’t have to apologise or justify the acts of this soldier who used brute force with a poor young man of 29.
“I find it incomprehensible that a young man on his way to commit a terrorist act only has a knife with him. If you tell me he had a gun, a rifle, then yes, I’d believe you, but I don’t know… all we want is the truth,”
According to his father, el-Hamahmy, who is married with a seven month-old child, had been visiting Paris on a business trip from his home in the United Arab Emirates and had told his family that he planned to take in the sights before his return to Dubai.
He had sent his father a photo of himself standing in front of the Eiffel Tower shortly before the attempted attack on the Louvre.
Following the attack his brother Ahmed, who works at the health ministry in Dubai, was interrogated for several hours by UAE security officials.
Meanwhile in Egypt, several domestic security agency officers visited the family home in the Nile Delta on Friday night to question family members.
According to police el-Hamahmy had paid €1,700 (£1,462) for a one-week stay at a Paris apartment in the upmarket eighth arrondissement near the Champs-Elysees. While in the capital he bought the two military machetes at a gun store.
On the Twitter account of an “Abdallah el-Hamahmy,” a tweet was posted about a trip from Dubai to Paris on 26 January. In the profile photo, al-Hamahmy is seen smiling and leaning against a wall in a blue-and-white jacket.
In another tweet in Arabic written shortly before the Louvre attack, the account posted: “No negotiation, no compromise, no letting up, certainly no climb down, relentless war.”

Obama Staffers Are Crying Because Their Ridiculous Plan To Attack ISIS Was Laughed At
Oh sh**, oh dear. This is just awful. The Obama administration had a plan but the Trump people just ignored it.
Okay. Not really.
The first tell here is that the plan wasn’t good enough to undertake while Obama was in the White House, so they stalled and waited until the new guys arrived and tried to get permission to kick it off (we launched the winning attack!!) and hand the guaranteed failure on the Trump administration

No ban, no wall: 1,000 protest Trump in heart of Berlin (thelocal, Feb 4, 2017)
https://www.thelocal.de/20170204/no-ban-no-wall-hundreds-protest-trump-in-heart-of-berlin
“More than 1,000 Germans, Americans, Syrians and others protested against US President Donald Trump’s travel bans and Mexico border wall plan on Saturday at the Brandenburg Gate, where Berlin’s own wall once stood.
Police told German media that an estimated 1,200 people gathered before the iconic Brandenburg Gate on Saturday afternoon in near freezing temperatures for the anti-Trump demonstration.
“We passed the Berlin Wall twice on our way here,” German Max Kersting told The Local. “To me it feels like a city where we had borders that turned out to be bad for everyone, so it makes sense to show up to protest new borders and nationalism.”…”
A thousand loony leftists in Berlin in comparison to twenty thousand Islamofascists in Birmingham. Interesting isnt it…

He is due to be executed in two weeks, according to VUB.

Targeted Attack On At Least Seven Indianapolis Area Officer’s Homes In One Night
Whitestown, IN – Officers from up to seven agencies who live in an Indianapolis suburb had their homes and cars vandalized Wednesday night. The targeted attack happened in The Walker Farms and Harvest Park subdivisions just north of Indianapolis. Families in the area have been left shaken by the attack and searching for answers.
Walker Farms is a large subdivision that is home to many area first responders including firemen and police officers. According to Fox 59 law enforcement families woke up to graffiti on their homes, and their squad cars vandalized this morning. Agenices including the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department, Zionsville Police Department, Indiana State Police, Lebanon Police Department, Whitestown Police Department, Speedway Police Department and Westfield Police Department all call the subdivisions home. At least four departments were affected by the vandalism.
Squad cars that were parked in front of homes had their windows broken and their tires were slashed. Alarmingly, those whose cars weren’t home still had vandalism done to their property, including graffiti on their garage doors. The graffiti included “F**k WPD (Whitestown Police Department).” At this time only police officer’s homes are believed to be the target.

Hamas organises Dutch conference, Intelligence Agencies in full denial
The Dutch investigative journalist Carel Brendel has unequivocally demonstrated Hamas’ involvement in the organisation by the London-based Palestinian Return Centre (PRC) of the annual Palestinians in Europe Conference (PRC), which will this year be held in Rotterdam on April 15.
The Dutch National Coordinator for Security and Counterterrorism (NCTV) however, remains in full denial of Hamas’ involvement and states: “No sources indicate Hamas is involved in the organization”.
The PRC’s Facebook page shows two figures, Al-Zeer and Abou Rashed, were speakers at the preliminary meeting for the main Rotterdam conference. In preparation for the main event, Al-Zeer posted a photo to Facebook in which the two were “inspecting” the venue.
Brendel cites no fewer than 11 sources which prove the Al-Zeer and Abou Rashed affiliation with Hamas. The two most important sources are German intelligence reports.
