Twitter Suspended Accounts Exposing Islamic and Lefty Anti-Semitism
February 28, 2018
Daniel Greenfield
The invaluable Canary Mission and Labour Anti-Semitism accounts are back after facing punitive action from Twitter for their work fighting against Islamic and left-wing hatred of Jews. Both organizations had been targeted by leftist activists. And that’s likely the reason lurking behind the harassment.
The Labour Anti-Semitism feed (aka @GnasherJew) was forced to delete its profile picture of the yellow star that Jews were forced to wear under Nazi occupation. And Canary Mission’s account was suspended before being reinstated. And this isn’t the first time.
We’ve seen how vulnerable even the top accounts on Twitter are, when President Trump was targeted. And Canary Mission makes a point of documenting the anti-Semitic and pro-Nazi attitudes of members of campus hate groups such as Students for Justice in Palestine. It has no shortage of enemies from the same Islamic hate groups that it exposes. And it’s likely that the double attack was no coincidence.

North Korea Reportedly Sending Missile, Chemical Weapons Parts To Syria
North Korea has reportedly sent ballistic missile and chemical weapons components to Syria in violation of United Nations sanctions, according to a draft of a new report authored by U.N. experts that has been viewed by several news organizations.
According to the 200-page report, expected to go public in mid-March, U.N. investigators say the items include acid-resistant tiles, valves and thermometers, according to The New York Times. The transfers reportedly date back as far as 2008.
The Times reports, “North Korean missile technicians have also been spotted working at known chemical weapons and missile facilities inside Syria, according to the report, which was written by a panel of experts who looked at North Korea’s compliance with United Nations sanctions.”
The Associated Press says the “investigations into Pyongyang’s transfer of prohibited ballistic missile, conventional arms and dual use goods found more than 40 previously unreported shipments to Syria between 2012 and 2017.”

Was Texas Muslim teen honor-murdered? Maarib Al Hishmawi was beaten regularly
Her Muslim migrant Iraqi family regularly beat her. They were not citizens of this country. The FBI has joined the search for a 16-year-old San Antonio girl, missing for almost a month. Maarib Al Hishmawi was last seen leaving William Howard Taft High School at 12:30 p.m. on Jan. 30, authorities said.
Officials said the investigation revealed the teen had been routinely physically abused by family members. Authorities are focused both on finding her and ensuring she is in a safe environment.
“We understand it’s been a recurring issues for her,” Assistant Chief Deputy Ronald Bennett said. “This is not a typical missing 16-year-old.”
One of three things happened to Maarib Al Hishmawi:
1) She was honor-murdered.
2) She was returned to Iraq.
3) She got away to safety (the least likely).

ave Thomas was getting ready for work Monday afternoon when he heard women screaming in his apartment building in Oswego.
Thomas, a gun instructor, peeked out the door and saw blood in the hallway. He went to his bedroom, where a handgun and an AR-15 assault-style rifle were lying on the bed. He picked up the rifle.
“I teach people how to defend themselves, and it was just a reaction to grab the AR-15,” he said.
Police said Thomas confronted a man who was stabbing another man in the apartment complex on the 100 block of Harbor Drive. The man with the knife ran off when Thomas threatened to shoot him.
“He was a half a breath away from getting his head blown off and he knew that,” Thomas, 41, said. “That’s why he put the knife down.”

Moroccan knife attacker charged with Finland terror murders (abcnews, Feb 28, 2018)
http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/moroccan-knife-attacker-charged-finland-terror-murders-53410007
“Finnish prosecutors say a Moroccan asylum seeker has been charged with two terror-related murders and an attempt to murder eight others during a stabbing attack in the south west of the country last year.
The state prosecutor’s office said Wednesday that Abderrahman Bouanane is suspected of “aiming to cause serious fear among the population” in the Aug. 18 attack in the western city of Turku that left two women dead and eight wounded.
The defendant, born 1994, has pleaded guilty to the stabbings but hasn’t clearly expressed whether he acted with terrorist intent as prosecutors allege.
Finnish police said earlier that Bouanane became radicalized some three months before the attack and though strongly identified with the Islamic State group is believed to have acted alone.
The trial is set to start April 9.”
Czech man attacked trains, blamed it on Islamic militants (abcnews, Feb 28, 2018)
http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/czech-man-attacked-trains-blamed-islamic-militants-53412498
“Czech authorities have detained a man suspected of carrying out two attacks on trains while blaming them on Islamic militants.
State prosecutor Martin Bily said Wednesday that the man is suspected of cutting down two trees that fell on train tracks last year near the city of Mlada Boleslav, some 50 kilometers (30 miles) north of Prague.
Two passenger trains later hit the trees, in June and July. Nobody was injured in the accidents.
The prosecutor says the Czech citizen also distributed pamphlets with threats of terror attacks planned on Czech territory.
Bily said the man’s motivation was to incite fear of Muslims and terror attacks among Czechs. A court ruled last week that the man will be held in detention.”

EU-Backed ‘Social Justice’ Group Behind Rise in Social Media Hate Speech Prosecutions (breitbart, Feb 28, 2018)
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/02/28/swedish-social-justice-group-behind-rise-social-media-hate-speech-prosecutions/
“A Swedish online “social justice” group comprised of lawyers, former police officers, and other professionals are said to be behind the rise of prosecutions against Swedes for “hate speech” on social media platforms.
The group, which calls itself Näthatsgranskaren, Swedish for “Network Examiner,” gathers data on social media posts deemed to be breaking Sweden’s hate speech laws and reports them to police. Since the group began their actions a year ago, 77 hate speech cases have been brought against Swedish residents, broadcaster SVT reports.
So far, the group has identified 800 or so “hate posts” which they have reported to authorities, though of these only 13 per cent have been acted upon.
“We have developed a programme that searches for criminal networks on social media by searching for keywords, combinations of words, and phrases that can constitute criminal acts,” said the group’s project manager Tomas Åberg.
Åberg also said that the organisation was shocked to find out that many of the people they were reporting to police turned out to be women over the age of 65.
“We were surprised to see ladies over the age of 65 write very, very rough things on Facebook,” he said.
Several pensioners in Sweden have been tried for hate speech in recent years. A 70-year-old woman in Dalarna was prosecuted last year for comments she had made online in 2015 when she alleged that migrants “set fire to cars, and urinate and defecate on the streets”.
Later that same year, a Gothenburg man in his 70’s was convicted of hate speech because he called Muslims “monkeys” and said: “The only good Muslim is a dead Muslim.”
Two months ago, the organisation started to receive not only cash donations from supporters but money from the European Union as well to carry out their operations.
Åberg said his group was particularly focused on the upcoming Swedish national election later this year saying he had already seen “hate against journalists and especially politicians”.”
German Medical Board Raises Alarm over Foreign Doctors After Mistakes Cost Patient Lives (breitbart, Feb 28, 2018)
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/02/28/german-medical-board-raises-alarm-over-foreign-doctors-after-mistakes-cost-patient-lives/
“Medical authorities in Germany have sounded the alarm over gaps in professional knowledge of doctors from outside of Europe, which they say threaten the quality of patient care.
The incompetence of foreign doctors has cost lives, according to the medical association of Westphalia-Lippe, because district authorities can only test foreign recruits’ language skills and are prevented from checking their professional capabilities.
The failure rate of doctors taking language tests in the region is 50 per cent, according to association president Theodor Windhorst, who said the tests have exposed “extreme technical deficiencies” in candidates, on which the board of Westphalia-Lippe is not allowed to act, in addition to highlighting language problems.
“It is a thorn in our side that we are not permitted to take action if we notice shortcomings in their professional ability,” he said, telling local media that such skill gaps had cost patients’ lives in the district and that this has been evidenced by judicial decisions.
For example, the Neue Westfälische pointed to a case in which a baby died during birth at a hospital in Westphalia-Lippe due to apparent lack of medical knowledge shown by a gynaecologist who was qualified in Libya.
Though handed a suspended sentence for negligent homicide, the doctor went on to work in another German hospital, according to the newspaper…”

“German authorities have arrested a Syrian man on allegations he supported the extremist Nusra Front in his homeland.
Federal prosecutors said Wednesday the 33-year-old, identified only as Abdul Sattar A. I., was fighting for a paramilitary group associated with the Free Syrian Army when in April 2014, he organized the capture of Islamic State fighter Saleh A.
They allege he handed the man over to the Nusra Front, with the goal of arranging a prisoner exchange to get Nusra captives released by the Islamic State. The prisoner swap failed because Saleh A. escaped.
Prosecutors say A.I. was arrested Tuesday and his home in the Karlsruhe area was searched.

“Populist leader of the Lega party Matteo Salvini struck back at a pro-migrant bishop who attacked him for swearing an oath of loyalty to the Italian people on a bible, saying “in my Italy, immigration has rules”.
Salvini promised to swear his oath of office on a bible last Saturday at a rally in Milan which drew the ire of Roman Catholic archbishop Gian Carlo Perego, also known as the “bishop of migrants”, Il Giornale reports.
“Here we are faced with a leader who contradicts himself with the Gospel and with the rosary and on the other hand he preaches the non-acceptance and refusal of the other: yesterday the southerner, today the foreigner,” Perego said referring to the Lega’s past as a northern separatist party.
In response to the criticism, Salvini said: “In my Italy, immigration has rules, numbers and limits, as in America and Canada. According to you, the Gospel says welcome anyone? With 5 million Italians in poverty, the ‘next neighbour’ is in Milan, Naples, Turin, Rome.”…”

Satellite Images Reveal Iran Establishing Missile Base Near Damascus – Reports (sputniknews, Feb 28, 2018)
https://sputniknews.com/military/201802281062059058-iran-syria-base-missile-israel/
“Recent satellite imagery taken outside Syria’s capital Damascus show that Iran has constructed a likely missile base that can strike anywhere in Israel, according to media reports.
The Iranian facility is operated by the Quds Force, known as the special operations force of the larger Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and is located approximately eight miles southwest of Damascus, Fox News reported on Tuesday.
The media outlet said it acquired satellite photos from ImageSat International, which purportedly show two new white hangars, each roughly 30 yards by 20 yards, used to store short-and medium-range missiles, the report said.
Israel has repeatedly warned Iran that it will defend itself against any attack from the Islamic Republic.
Israel is reported to have as many as 200 nuclear weapons, some apparently capable of launch from its submarine force.
Earlier on Tuesday, US Central Command chief Gen. Joseph Votel said in a congressional testimony that countering Iran is not one of the missions of the US-led coalition in Syria, the report said.”

“A Saudi court on Wednesday slapped a citizen with six years behind bars for sharing comments critical of the kingdom on Twitter, according to prominent Saudi daily Okaz.
The citizen, whose name was not given, was reportedly convicted on charges of “attempting to incite public opinion against the state” and “challenging sovereign decisions”.
He was also convicted of “challenging judicial rulings” and “showing support for individuals detained for reasons related to terrorism and national security”.
Targets of the convicted man’s online criticisms reportedly included Saudi Arabia’s “Shura” system of governance and the kingdom’s ongoing war against Shia rebels in Yemen.
In addition to the six-year jail term, the convicted man was also banned from using social media — or the internet — for a further six years after his release.
Wednesday’s court sentence can still be challenged before an appellate court.”

The move came days after a Local 10 News report on the cars in which one of Israel’s opponents, retired Broward Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Willie Jones, condemned them as a campaign ploy financed by the public.
The wrap was removed because of design and workmanship issues, according to spokeswoman Veda Coleman-Wright. The sheriff refused a request for comment.

NEWFOUNDLAND, Pa. — Hundreds of crown-wearing worshipers clutching AR-15 rifles drank holy wine and exchanged or renewed wedding vows in a commitment ceremony at a Pennsylvania church on Wednesday, prompting a nearby school to cancel classes. With state police and a smattering of protesters standing watch outside the church, brides clad in white and grooms in dark suits brought dozens of unloaded AR-15s into World Peace and Unification Sanctuary for a religious event that doubled as an advertisement for the Second Amendment.
World Peace and Unification Sanctuary in Newfoundland believes the AR-15 symbolizes the “rod of iron” in the biblical book of Revelation.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/hundreds-of-worshipers-gather-at-church-hosting-ceremony-featuring-ar-15s/
OK – this religion considers the AR-15 to be a “religious accoutrement.”
Sort of like the Sikh Kirpan.
So, if I join, do I get the religious right to carry an AR-15 to school the way Sikh boys may carry a Kirpan to school?
Pennsylvania church blesses couples bearing semi-automatic guns

Followers were said to have come from around the world for the ceremony, which prompted a local school to relocate students to a different campus.

Donald Trump’s selection of his 2016 digital media director, Brad Parscale as his campaign manager for 2020 is a warning to the Masters of the Universe in Silicon Valley: rein in your left-wing biases.
The selection of Parscale, the digital guru of the 2016 election, also indicates that Trump has recognized the power of a digital-first strategy. In public interviews, Parscale has argued that social media, not traditional media was the key to Trump’s victory in 2016. His selection suggests that the digital campaigning will be given even greater emphasis in 2020.
Silicon Valley leftists are already panicking. Google “analytics advocate” Adam Singer tweeted that tech employees should consider “leaving [their] cushy tech jobs” to counter Parscale.

Unbeknownst to New Orleans residents or even the city’s town council, the crime-ridden town is being used to test ‘pre-crime’ technology foretold in the popular movie, book and television series, “Minority Report.”
According to a report in The Verge, a Silicon Valley company Palantir has been working in New Orleans to help secure prosecutions and convictions using predictive policing technology since 2012. Palantir was created in part by PayPal founder Peter Thiel with cash from a CIA venture capital firm. The entity was named after an all-seeing crystal ball from “The Lord of the Rings.”
The contract between Palantir and the city has been renewed three times, and was set to expire last week. It is unknown whether or not that contract has been renewed. The partnership was hatched under the cloak of darkness, hidden as a philanthropic relationship through Mayor Mitch Landrieu’s NOLA For Life program. The Mayor essentially acted unilaterally to bring this technology into the city.

Shapiro To Students: 100 Police Officers Are Outside So I Can Say Conservative Things
“There are a hundred police officers that were necessary to protect you guys and to protect me so that I can say conservative things.”
Despite the University of Minnesota’s decision to use the “protesters’ veto” as an excuse to “quarantine” an event featuring Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro, the conservative commentator and author’s speech to a packed house went off without a hitch — that is, if you consider the university feeling that barricades, a helicopter, and dozens of police officers were necessary, all so a speaker could express some mainstream conservative opinions, going off “without a hitch.”
Shapiro drew attention to the literally embattled state of free speech on campus in his talk Monday. “There are a hundred police officers that were necessary to protect you guys and to protect me so that I can say conservative things,” he said.

SHOCKING: South African Parliament Votes To Seize Land Owned By All White Farmers
On Tuesday in South Africa, a shocking vote in the National Assembly ruled that white South African farmers will be removed from their land. The vote, prompted by a motion brought by radical Marxist opposition leader Julius Malema, was not even close; 241 legislators voted for it with only 83 voting against it. Malema told his supporters in 2016 he was “not calling for the slaughter of white people — at least for now.”
Supporters of the motion issued harsh statements; News24 reported Malema saying before the vote was taken, “The time for reconciliation is over. Now is the time for justice.” Gugile Nkwinti, minister of water affairs, echoed, “The ANC (African National Congress) unequivocally supports the principle of land expropriation without compensation. There is no doubt about it, land shall be expropriated without compensation.”

2,081 Egypt detainees referred to Mufti for death sentences (memo, Feb 28, 2018)
https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20180228-2081-egypt-detainees-referred-to-mufti-for-death-sentences/
“Thirty opponents of the Egyptian regime face the risk of execution at any time, according to the Arab Organisation for Human Rights in the UK (AOHR UK) in its latest report on death sentences issued in Egypt since the coup of 3 July 2013.
The report details how the Egyptian regime has launched an intensive crackdown on dissidents through the arrests of tens of thousands of Egyptians on trumped up charges. Those arrested have then faced sentencing in mass trials which lack basic justice and where many have been handed death sentences en masse.
The Egyptian civil and military judiciary have referred the papers of 2081 defendants to the Mufti for ratification which is an obligation before any death sentence can be approved according to Egyptian law. In 73 cases presented to the Mufti, 986 defendants were ratified, 57 of those having gone through all means possible to appeal the sentencing.
