  1. ‘Sex grooming gang drugged and raped white girls as young as 13’ (express, Aug 23, 2017)
    http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/845125/Sex-grooming-gang-drugged-raped-vunerable-white-girls

    “MEMBERS of a grooming gang raped and abused vulnerable white girls who they viewed as little more than “commodities”, a court heard.

    The gang allegedly controlled the girls, some aged as young as 13, with drugs and alcohol, contacted them on Facebook to discuss depraved parties and on one occasion demanded sex in return for paying for a tattoo.

    Once addicted to drugs, the girls were pressed into prostitution in return for ecstasy, cocaine, speed and cannabis, it was claimed.

    The alleged offences occurred between 2007 and 2014 in Newcastle upon Tyne, involving six “immature and vulnerable” girls whose personality traits were said to have been exploited by the defendants.

    Sex with gang members then became “chillingly almost a daily occurrence”, Newcastle Crown Court heard.

    Anne Richardson, prosecuting, said: “They were young, naive women who were in thrall to and under the control of these, for the most part, older and more worldly-wise defendants.”

    Miss Richardson told the court the girls were effectively passed between “some if not all the defendants” and were “treated almost as commodities”.

    The defendants, all of Kurdish extraction, face a variety of charges. Soran Azizi, 28, denies, rape, sexual activity with a child and two counts of trafficking for sexual exploitation.

    Palla Pour, 25 – known as Pablo – denies four counts of sexual activity with a child, paying for the sexual services of a child, inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, two counts of supplying a controlled drug and knowingly permitting his premises to be used for the supply of controlled drugs.

    Ribas Asad, 29, denies sexual assault, paying for the sexual services of a child, conspiring to facilitate prostitution, supplying a controlled drug, inciting a child to sexual activity and sexual activity with a child.

    Heiman Mohammed, 26 – known as Luqman – denies sexual activity with a child, paying for the sexual services of a child and supplying a controlled drug.

    Saman Faiaq Obaid, 29, denies sexual activity with a child, paying for the sexual services of a child, conspiracy to facilitate prostitution and three counts of supplying a controlled drug.

    The trial, expected to last six weeks, continues.”

  2. Immigration figures ‘WRONG yet again’ as Home Office scramble to get their numbers right (express, Aug 24, 2017)
    http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/845163/Immigration-figures-wrong-again-Home-Office-scramble-to-get-numbers-right

    “THE HOME Office has ordered a review of Britain’s immigration figures after new checks at borders have found previous predictions to be wrong.

    Recent border checks have found that there may be fewer immigrants into Britain than previously thought, according to the Home Office.

    International students are one of the biggest groups of immigrants and the Government will reveal today that new border checks introduced last year found 97 per cent left after their studies.

    Officials say that the new border checks could mean that the overall net migration figures could be reduced by tens of thousands, bringing Theresa May closer to meeting her target of reducing it to less than 100,000 a year.

    The figures would give the Government more flexibility as it leaves the EU and ministers are expected to allow free movement for EU migrants to continue…”

  3. ‘Failing EU enticing economic migrants’ as almost three quarters remain despite rejection (express, Aug 24, 2017)
    http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/845162/eu-migrant-crisis-remove-failed-asylum-seekers-economic-juncker-africa-italy-greece

    “THE EU is encouraging economic migrants to make the dangerous journey from Africa because they are failing to send home rejected asylum seekers, senior figures in Brussels revealed.

    Official statistics show that an economic migrant who manages to survive the perilous journey across the Mediterranean has a 73 per cent chance of remaining within the EU, despite having been issued with an order to leave.One EU diplomat working on migration told The Times: “The inability of EU governments to enforce deportations is the biggest pull factor.“If people know that as illegal immigrants they have a 70 per cent-plus chance of being able to stay, even if ordered to leave, then it is hardly surprising people get into the boats.”In 2015-16 there were 2.6million asylum applications that had an average success rate of 57 per cent but that meant governments were left with one million people to return, according to a European Commission report.

    David Wood, former director-general of immigration enforcement at the Home Office, said: “[In] reality… the vast majority stay here, regardless of the merits of their application.”

    In a letter to governments in March, Jean-Claude Juncker, the European Commission president, said: “Only a third of those who should be returned are effectively returned. This is… not sustainable.”

    The commission registers a “rate of effective return” to non-EU countries of 36.4 per cent…”

  4. Freedom Center Confronts CNN’s Blacklist
    Democracy dies in darkness.
    August 22, 2017

    Editor’s Note: Below is a letter that the David Horowitz Freedom Center’s legal team sent to CNN on August 21, 2017, regarding their publishing of an article, The Southern Poverty Law Center’s list of hate groups, on August 17, 2017 (updated on August 18) listing the Freedom Center as an SPLC designated hate group. The SLPC’s “hate map” is a malicious and defamatory attack that deliberately crowds together neo-Nazis with the conservative political organizations it opposes. CNN has attacked freedom of speech and exposed itself to legal consequences by running the SPLC’s smear. And the Freedom Center won’t take it lying down.

    From Greenwald & Hoffman, LLP, Attorneys at Law, August 21, 2017.
    Re: Defamatory statements regarding David Horowitz.

    Dear Mr. Zucker, Mr. Vigilante, Mr. Davis, Mr. Andone, and Mr. Mullery:

    This firm represents David Horowitz and the David Horowitz Freedom Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation (“Freedom Center”) regarding the defamatory claim that CNN has published about David Horowitz and the Freedom Center in the website article by Dakin Andone and map by Will Mullery describing alleged hate groups throughout the United States. Without critical examination, Mr. Andone’s article refers to and blindly adopts as “widely accepted” the entire list of 917 alleged “hate groups” labeled as such by the Southern Poverty Law Center’s (“SPLC”) website, which maliciously promotes the false accusation that the Freedom Center is a “hate group” and that David Horowitz is “anti-Muslim” and “anti-black”.

  6. All the Statues Must Go
    Either all the statues go or they all stay.
    August 23, 2017

    Back in May, a New Orleans statue of Joan of Arc was tagged with “Tear it Down” graffiti.

    Why Joan of Arc? Any famous historical figure is by definition controversial. Joan is a French national symbol, but Shakespeare depicted her as a malicious witch. The French Quarter where the statue stands is a mostly white neighborhood. France was dealing with a controversial election.

    This is what happens when you open a can of historical, religious and nationalistic worms.

    The war on Confederate memorials quickly escalated into attacks on Abraham Lincoln. The Lincoln Memorial was vandalized in Washington D.C. and in Chicago, a statue of Lincoln was burned. Abraham Lincoln fought the Confederacy. But from a black nationalist perspective, Lincoln and Lee were both racist white devils. And to the left, they both embody white supremacy.

    What began with tearing down General Lee, escalated to vandalizing statues of Junipero Serra.

    Serra was an 18th century Catholic priest who set up missions in what is now California. He’s hated by some American Indian activists who accuse him of racism and colonialism. There are statues of Serra all over California. And while most Americans have never heard of him, a pitched battle is underway between Catholics who venerate him as a saint and left-wing activists who call him a genocidal racist.

    • Junipero Serra’s brutal “Mission” system so thoroughly destroyed California’s coastal, central, and southern tribes that it is small wonder how Whites arriving during the Westward Expansion thought nothing of hunting them like animals.

      Read: A TIME OF LITTLE CHOICE. The Disintegration of Tribal Culture in the San Francisco Bay Area. 1769—1810 by. Randall Milliken

      Serra was a monster who helped California’s original occupants slide into oblivion.

      • I put it up because of the destruction of the other historical statures, I never heard of Serra before this.

        • Some examples:

          Once they were lured onto the Mission sites, men and women were forced to reside in gender-segregated dormitories.

          Demanding physical labor was the lot of most men. Frequently unpaid.

          Indian populations were consequently exposed to diseases for which they had no immunity. Every new European vessel that sailed into San Francisco Bay was a death ship whose cargo of viruses could end up killing thousands. The Mission death rolls record this coincidence.

          Anyone who fled from the Mission was brought back by force.

          For an Indian couple to bond, they first had to be baptized and then participate in a priest-led marriage ceremony. Otherwise, tribal sweethearts could not form and start families.

          The cattle imported by the Spaniards caused tremendous ecological damage to crucial and sensitive areas where traditional harvests were taken. Stealing one of the cattle or horses (for food) was pretty much a death sentence.

          Owners of local rancherias were provided with Indian labor, often at very poor wages or cheated entirely of them.

          Squadrons of Indian men were seasonally impressed as labor to construct presidios or other new Missions. While they were sometimes paid well for this work, it meant months of separation from their families, sometimes during crucial harvest cycles.

          Almost stereotypical was the ability of Spaniards to acquire food, pelts, and other useful goods in trade for inexpensive glass beads and woven cloth.

          The list is endless and thoroughly dispiriting to read.

  7. Hezbollah Threatens Key Israeli Nuclear Research Facility
    Genocidal enemies ratchet up tensions just across the Jewish State’s border.

    Ari Lieberman

    On August 13, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah threatened to bomb Israel’s Dimona nuclear research facility in the event of war between Israel and Hezbollah. Nasrallah made the threat via video linkup from an undisclosed hidden location while addressing a crowd of Shia supporters in the southern Lebanese village of Khiam. For all of his bravado, Nasrallah still finds it necessary to hide, and scurry from location to location for fear of being targeted by Israel.

    This isn’t the first time that the terrorist leader issued such a threat. In February, he issued similar sinister pronouncements during a speech commemorating the 9th anniversary of the liquidation of Imad Mughniyeh, Hezbollah’s chief special operations commander, who was eliminated in 2008 in a joint Mossad-CIA operation.

    Nasrallah frequently issues threats to bomb civilian targets and other critical infrastructure in Israel. These threats are generally for internal public consumption but they are also directed at Israel as a form of psychological warfare. Nasrallah’s threats to target an ammonia storage plant in Haifa, Israel’s third largest city, likely factored into the decision by Israeli authorities to relocate the facility to a safer location further south, away from densely populated areas.
