“Sarah Palin, Loyal Running Mate, Excluded from John McCain’s Funeral” by Joel B. Pollak – August 29, 2018
https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/08/29/sarah-palin-loyal-running-mate-excluded-from-john-mccains-funeral/
I believe that John McCain had no intention of becoming President. Besides, as I remember people were voting for Sarah Palin and holding their nose when it came to voting for McCain.
I believe that John McCain (with the help of all the ugly people), picked Sarah Palin as his running mate to destroy her reputation and make it impossible for her to return as Governor of Alaska.

Dems Won’t Stop With Impeaching Trump, Supreme Court Justices Next
August 30, 2018
Daniel Greenfield
If you’re going to build a totalitarian leftist utopia, it helps to get any political opponents out of the way.
The Dems whipped up their base with Supreme Court outrage, first over Merrick Garland’s “stolen seat”, and now fighting to stop Kavanaugh, But what good would impeaching President Trump be without also stealing some Supreme Court seats?
And I’m sure some pretexts will be found to “investigate” other conservative justices. Since government eavesdropping of the political opposition is the new norm, how long until the FBI starts going after Justice Thomas based on “research” from Fusion GPS paid for by Planned Parenthood?
The left is tearing down everything that keeps our elections from being a vicious zero sum struggle of naked power.

Hungary Summons Swedish Ambassador Over Criticism of Migration Policy (sputniknews, Aug 30, 2018)
https://sputniknews.com/europe/201808301067595007-hungary-ambassador-criticism/
“Budapest has long been severe in its criticism of the European Union’s open-door policy, opposing mandatory migrant relocation quotas. The country’s stance prompted the European Commission to launch its first infringement procedure against Hungary over its asylum legislation in December 2015.
Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto has summoned the Swedish ambassador due to the “critical remarks by Swedish ministers regarding Hungary.”
“The pro-immigration Swedish government has launched a new attack against Hungary,” Szijjarto said.
The minister addressed the recent statements of Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom, who wrote in a tweet that Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini were forming an alliance against democrats, following a meeting between the politicians in Milan on Tuesday.
I just read today that Viktor Orbán in Hungary and Matteo Salvini in Italy want to form an alliance against ”the democrats and the left” in Europe, naming Macron as their main opponent.
I have one thing to say to them: bring it on.
— Margot Wallström (@margotwallstrom) 29 ??????? 2018 ?.
Budapest previously commented on the statement, calling it “a lie.”
During the meeting between Salvini and Orban, the Italian politician noted that Hungary has proved that the flow of migrants can be stopped both “legally and physically,” while Italy is demonstrating that the maritime migrant entry points can also be closed.
Orban, in turn, noted that the security of the EU depends on the success of the Italian anti-magration policy in the Mediterranean.”
Margot Wallström is widely known as “The Bitch of Buchenwald”.
From before she took office. Swedish Nazi forbears? Lots of those in the state that calls itself the “Humanitarian Superpower”.

Russia news: Putin deploys 25 WARSHIPS to MEDITERRANEAN amid fears of US attack on Syria (express, Aug 30, 2018)
https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1010592/russia-news-war-games-Mediterranean-sea-vladimir-putin
“RUSSIA is set to hold naval exercises in the Mediterranean Sea – a huge show of force from Vladimir Putin with relations with European states already at a low.
Russia’s Ministry of Defence said today the naval exercises will take place from September 1 to September 8.
A spokesan said 25 vessels and 30 planes would take part, the TASS news agency reported.
The ministry said the drills would involve carrying out anti-aircraft, anti-submarine and anti-mining exercises.
The Kremlin confirmed the exercises today.
They said the planned drills were justified given the escalating situation in Syria’s Idlib province.
The drills come amid tensions between Russia and the West over Syria’s northern rebel-held region of Idlib.
A source said yesterday that Russia’s ally, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, was preparing a phased offensive there.
And US National Security Advisor John Bolton last week said Russia-backed Syrian military may be preparing for another chemical attack…”
Gulf News – Last-ditch talks to avert battle for Idlib
Launch of offensive hinges on failure or success of talks with extremist group
Beirut – Key brokers held last-ditch talks on Thursday on the fate of Syria’s only remaining rebel-held province, hoping to stave off a regime offensive the UN has warned could spark catastrophe.
Regime forces have been massing around Idlib for days and looked poised to launch what could be the last major battle of the civil war that has torn Syria apart since 2011.
After retaking a succession of rebel bastions around the country this year, the regime of President Bashar Al Assad has set its sights on Idlib.
The province’s most powerful armed faction is the Hayat Tahrir Al Sham (HTS) group and neighbouring Turkey is trying to use its influence to avert a major offensive against it.
“The negotiations between Turkey and HTS are still under way,” said the head of the Britain-based Syria Observatory for Human Rights, Rami Abdul Rahman.
Russia, whose 2015 military intervention in support of Al Assad helped the regime reclaim much of the ground it lost in the early days of the seven-year conflict, wants the extremist outfit to disband, he said.
“This is the condition set by Moscow to avert a broad offensive … Its launch hinges on the failure or success of these talks with HTS.”
In comments published on its propaganda agency Ibaa, HTS appeared to leave the door open to a negotiated settlement.
“The issue of the disbanding – should it ever take place – is one that would be discussed internally by the alliance’s consultative council but not dictated by local or foreign parties,” it said.
“We in HTS are striving to find an effective solution in the liberated Syrian north that would protect our people from a possible offensive by the criminal regime and its allies.”
While Turkey actively sponsors rebel forces in Idlib, its influence over the former Al Qaida affiliate is less clear and Abdul Rahman warned the chances of success were slim.
“Turkey’s relationship with HTS is a complicated one but may best be framed as cooperative animosity,” said analyst Elizabeth Teoman, of the Institute for the Study of War.
Turkey, Russia and fellow regime backer Iran all operate “observation points” in Idlib as part of a “de-escalation” deal agreed last year that was meant to reduce bloodshed in the province.
But with a regime offensive looming, the Turkish military has been reinforcing its 12 monitoring posts.
During a press conference with his Saudi counterpart in Moscow on Wednesday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov hinted the assault may be imminent.
“It is necessary to disassociate the so-called moderate opposition from terrorists and at the same time prepare an operation against them while minimising risks for the civilian population,” Lavrov said.
“This abscess needs to be liquidated.”
Iran’s top diplomat also held previously unannounced talks with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday.
Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif met Erdogan for a hour but little filtered out on the nature of the discussions.
Russian media reported this week that Moscow has been reinforcing its military set-up in the region and currently has 10 warships and two submarines in Syrian waters.
The prospect of a massive Russian-backed offensive in a province that is home to some three million people – half of them already displaced from other parts of Syria – has raised fears of a new humanitarian tragedy.
UN chief Antonio Guterres said on Wednesday he was “deeply concerned about the growing risks of a humanitarian catastrophe in the event of a full-scale military operation in Idlib.”
One of the fears is that the regime will resort to using chemical weapons, as it did during an offensive against rebels in the Eastern Ghouta enclave earlier this year.
Another is the presence in the province of large numbers of fighters and civilians who have preferred to leave their homes rather than submit to Damascus rule.
Idlib has been used as a relief valve for those evacuated from other rebel pockets like Eastern Ghouta following their negotiated surrender to the regime.
But fighters who reject similar surrender deals for Idlib will have nowhere to go, heightening the chances of even deadlier battles if an all-out offensive is launched.
“The rebels, as well as desperate civilians, have sheltered in Idlib, but now there is no other ‘Idlib’ into which they can flee,” the Soufan Group think tank said.

al jazeera – End of the line for Hay’et Tahrir al-Sham in Syria?
With major assault on rebels’ last bastion of Idlib impending, analysts suggest time is up for former al-Qaeda branch.
[…]”I doubt if Turkey or others would be able to avoid an attack on Idlib or its takeover by the regime,” said Joshua Landis, director of the Center for Middle East Studies at Oklahoma University.
Unless the US does something drastic, such as establishing a no-fly zone over the province, Syrian forces supported by Russia’s airpower will undoubtedly retake it, Landis told Al Jazeera.
[…]ecent Arabic press reports said Turkey has demanded that HTS – formerly known as al-Nusra Front – and other armed groups dissolve and leave Idlib.
Abu Mohammed al-Joulani, leader of Hay’et Tahrir al-Sham, has reportedly declared he will not heed Turkish demands and ordered his fighters to “follow Allah, not Turkey” and prepare for battle.
[…]
The Turkish government will not allow HTS members to resettle in Turkey for fear of being accused of harbouring “terrorists”, thereby complicating ties with Western intelligence agencies.[…]

Claiming Germany Has 1.6M Vacant Jobs, Merkel Set to Open Border to Non-EU Workers (breitbart, Aug 30, 2018)
https://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/08/30/germany-open-border-non-eu-workers/
“Claiming there are more than a million vacant jobs in Germany, Angela Merkel’s government is set to slash immigration restrictions so non-EU migrants can be shipped in to fill roles in vocational careers.
After years of calls for reform, largely from corporations, business associations, and the Social Democratic Party (SPD), the nation’s interior ministry revealed a paper of key points agreed by ministers and all three parties in the grand coalition.
Hailing the plans, under which big business would find it much easier to import workers, the newspaper Handelsblatt reported that Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and its Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union (CSU), has finally relented to reform after “resisting the creation of new immigration laws for 20 years”.
“In fact, the CDU and CSU had long resisted seeing Germany as a nation of immigrants,” the newspaper criticised, lamenting that the centre-right parties’ reluctance to craft fresh border control policies with corporate input meant that migrants were forced to migrate illegally “in order to gain any prospect of residing” in the EU nation.
“The result of this was overburdened authorities, a backlog of paperwork and years of uncertainty for refugees and for businesses desperately seeking staff. In short: chaos and frustration,” according to Handelsblatt, which said new laws should be in place by Christmas.
Geared less towards graduates — who are already favoured under current rules — the draft system would make it much easier to import non-European individuals who have gone through vocational training, according to local media.
Under the drafted plans, the government would scrap what companies believe are the biggest “hurdles” for overseas recruitment including the requirement that German job seekers are given preference above overseas labour, and that they may only hire people in professions the government says are in short supply.
While Eurostat figures show there are almost six million Europeans aged 16 to 25 looking for jobs, as parts of southern Europe continue to suffer crippling youth unemployment rates, Britain’s Financial Times declared recruiting non-EU migrants an“obvious” solution to a “lack of skilled labour … so pervasive that it is inflicting serious damage on the German economy”.
“You cannot believe how hard it is to find people,” said freight company boss Herbert Striebich, who told the newspaper his business needs at least six warehouse workers and five truck drivers.
According to Euractiv Germany, plans for reform have been welcomed by economists and employers, with Federal Association of small and medium-sized business president Hermann Sturm stating: “We are very pleased that the government parties now finally want to create a reasonable immigration law, which SMEs have long been demanding”.
“In the competition for qualified employees or junior staff, small and medium-sized companies almost always have the disadvantage compared to large companies,” he told the Brussels-based media outlet.
The German Greens responded with glee to plans to prise open the border, believing it marks the death of conservatives’ “dogged and stubborn” belief that Germany is not, in fact, a so-called ‘nation of immigrants’ in the same vein as the U.S, reported Deutsche Welle.
The public broadcaster noted that trade unions were more reserved about the news, however, along with the anti-mass migration Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, which warned more migration from the third world is sure to put strain on the country’s public services.
Speaking for AfD, Alice Weidel remarked: “Plans to abolish the requirement that companies must give German workers priority [before they are allowed to bring in foreign labour] would act as a licence for wage dumping, allowing additional competition into the labour market.””
Mediterranean Free of Migrant Transport NGO Ships as Legal Battles Mount (breitbart, Aug 30, 2018)
https://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/08/30/mediterranean-free-migrant-transport-ngo-ships-legal-battles-mount/
“Following the docking of the Aquarius in Marseilles, no migrant transport NGO vessels are currently operating in the Mediterranean as some face increasing legal pressure from European countries.
Of the currently operating migrant transport NGOs, not one has a vessel that was not docked in port at the start of this week, with the ships Lifeline, Sea Watch 3, and the Seefuchs all being kept in dock in Malta, Il Giornale reports.
Since June, the vessel MV Lifeline has been impounded in Malta. Maltese authorities have questioned the captain who now faces charges of steering an unregistered vessel due to the fact he had labelled the ship a “pleasure yacht” and had no flag flying when in international waters. A verdict in the case is expected in September.
While the Aquarius has been able to operate, despite Italian populist Interior Minister Matteo Salvini refusing port access, troubles for the NGO who operate the vessel, SOS Méditerranée, have been growing.
Earlier this month, it was revealed that the ship had been using the flag of Gibraltar when the Italian government demanded the UK take responsibility for 140 migrants on board the vessel.
Shortly after the Italian government’s comments, the Gibraltar Maritime Administration (GMA) issued a “notice of removal” to the crew operating the vessel to remove the flag citing the fact the GMA had asked the ship to stop all search and rescue activity in June and July, which the Aquarius crew had ignored.
While migrant transport NGOs have been stuck in port, migrants have still managed to be ferried by other vessels, including most recently the Italian coastguard ship Diciotti. Interior Minister Salvini allowed the ship to dock, but he resisted allowing the migrants to step foot in Italy, demanding other countries promise to share the burden.
Albania offered to take in 18 of the 140 migrants but now an NGO funded by left-wing Hungarian-American billionaire George Soros is attempting to block the migrants travelling to Albania.
The Association for Juridical Studies on Immigration (ASGI) has denounced the plan to send the migrants to Albania saying the asylum seekers should not be taken to Albania “against their will” if they do not want to go there.
President of ASGI Lorenzo Trucco argued that Albania is not a member of the European Union and described the move as “an attack on the asylum system”.
Trucco was slammed by Salvini who said of the migrants: “They say they are running away from the war and now they make a fuss about where to go?””
China rejects US lawmakers’ sanctions call over Muslim camps (abcnews, Aug 30, 2018)
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/us-lawmakers-urge-sanctioning-china-officials-crackdown-57492130
“China said Thursday that U.S. lawmakers were wasting taxpayer money by urging President Donald Trump’s administration to impose sanctions on Chinese officials allegedly tied to the mass internment of ethnic minority Muslims in camps in the far west.
The lawmakers sent a letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin urging the government to apply sanctions to address the “ongoing human rights crisis” in the region of Xinjiang (SHIN’-jhang), in the latest sign that the detentions are raising concerns among Western leaders and governments.
Muslim ethnic minorities in Xinjiang are being detained and tortured and face “egregious restrictions on religious practice and culture” and other abuses, said the letter, which was signed by Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and New Jersey Rep. Chris Smith and 15 others. It was provided to the media on Wednesday.
The letter singles out Xinjiang’s top official, Chen Quanguo, accused by many of turning the region into a police surveillance state and implementing a system of internment camps, also known as “re-education centers,” where members of the Uighur (‘WEE-gur) and other Muslim minorities are locked up for months without trial.
“The detention of as many as a million or more Uighurs and other predominantly Muslim ethnic minorities in ‘political reeducation’ center or camps requires a tough, targeted, and global response,” the letter said.
Former detainees who spoke to The Associated Press described the internment camps as facilities policed by armed guards where Muslims were forced to disavow their religious beliefs, criticize themselves and their loved ones and give thanks to the ruling Communist Party. Beatings and deaths have been reported despite authorities’ tight control on information from the region.
The detention program has swept up people, including relatives of American citizens, on ostensible offenses ranging from accessing foreign websites to contacting overseas relatives. Other aspects of the security crackdown the AP has detailed include all-encompassing digital surveillance, mass deployment of police and severe regulations against religious customs and dress.
On Thursday in Beijing, the Foreign Ministry said Chinese citizens enjoy freedom of religion according to the law and that the American lawmakers should not “threaten to impose sanctions at every turn on other countries.”
“I would like to advise the individual U.S. lawmakers to focus on and perform their duties well because they are spending taxpayer money,” spokeswoman Hua Chunying told reporters. “They should certainly serve the Americans properly instead of poking their noses in other countries’ affairs and pretending to be a judge of human rights.”
China denies such internment camps exist but says criminals involved in minor offenses are sent to “vocational education and employment training centers” to help with their rehabilitation and reintegration into society.
“The argument that ‘a million Uighurs are detained in re-education centers’ is completely untrue,” Chinese representative Hu Lianhe said earlier this month in responding to questions raised by the U.N.’s Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination in Geneva.
China insists tough measures are needed as part of a “People’s War on Terror” to purge separatist and religious extremist elements from Xinjiang, a vast region with more than 10 million Muslims. Deadly ethnic riots in its capital in 2009 killed hundreds and sporadic violence occurred in subsequent years. But reports of violence are increasingly rare and the existence of an effective organized resistance to Chinese rule is widely doubted.
China’s foreign ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the letter…”

Pakistan blocks Islamist march against Dutch cartoon contest (abcnews, Aug 30, 2018)
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/pakistan-blocks-islamist-march-dutch-cartoon-contest-57493730
“Hard-line Islamists who started a march toward Pakistan’s capital to protest a far-right Dutch lawmaker’s plans to hold a Prophet Muhammad cartoon contest were stopped by police on Thursday.
Some 10,000 supporters of the Tehreek-i-Labaik group, which helped Imran Khan to become prime minister following last month’s elections, set out on the march Wednesday, calling on him to cut ties with the Netherlands.
The party’s spokesman, Eijaz Ashrafi, says police halted the march in Jhelum, about 100 miles (160 kilometers) from the capital, Islamabad. He says the protesters refuse to disperse, and that police will have to “kill us” to stop the march.
Physical depictions of the prophet are forbidden in Islam and deeply offensive to Muslims. Pakistan’s government has vowed to protest the contest at the U.N.
The cartoon contest is being organized by Geert Wilders, a Dutch lawmaker with a history of inflammatory statements about Islam. The Dutch government has distanced itself from the contest but says it is committed to upholding the right to free speech.”

“Jonathan Burchfield will be looking after Barking’s Ripple Road Mosque, also known as the Essex Islamic Academy, where the commission has been investigating since October last year.
In March, Umar Ahmed Haque, from Forest Gate, was jailed for life with a minimum term of 25 years after grooming children as young as 11 at the mosque.
The Old Bailey trial heard how the 25-year-old secretly brainwashed the boys through terrorism role play and exercises, and showed them gory IS propaganda.
He had told the children he intended to die a martyr and bragged about recruiting them in the months before his arrest.
One of the youngsters later told police that Haque wanted a group of 300 men and was training the boys to be strong enough to fight.
Jurors also heard how Haque had also planned to use guns and a car bomb to strike 30 high-profile targets including Big Ben and the Queen’s Guard.
Three other men, one from Barking and two from Newham, were also handed jail terms for their roles in the scheme.
As part of the Charity Commission’s inquiry, which was announced after Haque’s conviction, it is considering how he was able to radicalise the children and what the trustees and others at the charity knew about it.
The inquiry will also examine the level of supervision, due diligence and oversight the charity had over Mr Haque, and its adherence to safeguarding policies and procedures.”

Arrest of Iranian Spies in U.S. Just ‘Tip of the Iceberg,’ Lawmaker Warns
Iran spies stationed across U.S. a result of Obama-era cash payouts
The recent arrest of two Iranian agents alleged to have been running spy operations on U.S. soil is just “the tip of the iceberg” in terms of the Islamic Republic’s efforts to conduct intelligence operations in America that could result in a terrorist attack, according to a leading lawmaker and U.S. officials who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon about the matter.
Following the arrest of two Iranian individuals charged with spying on Jewish and Israeli facilities in the California area, Rep. Peter Roskam (R., Ill.) told the Free Beacon it is likely Iran has stationed multiple regime-tied agents in the United States to conduct intelligence operations.
While the arrest of the two Iranians was met with shock in the press, Roskam said he was not surprised by the arrests, which have unearthed concrete evidence of the Islamic Republic’s efforts to foment discord across the globe, including on American soil.
“This is the tip of the iceberg,” Roskam said in an interview. “This is not a surprise and this is a result of the Iran regime getting financial support from the Obama administration in the Iran deal.”

Franken-algorithms: the deadly consequences of unpredictable code
The death of a woman hit by a self-driving car highlights an unfolding technological crisis, as code piled on code creates ‘a universe no one fully understands’
by Andrew Smith
The 18th of March, 2018, was the day tech insiders had been dreading. That night, a new moon added almost no light to a poorly lit four-lane road in Tempe, Arizona, as a specially adapted Uber Volvo XC90 detected an object ahead. Part of the modern gold rush to develop self-driving vehicles, the SUV had been driving autonomously, with no input from its human backup driver, for 19 minutes. An array of radar and light-emitting lidar sensors allowed onboard algorithms to calculate that, given their host vehicle’s steady speed of 43mph, the object was six seconds away – assuming it remained stationary. But objects in roads seldom remain stationary, so more algorithms crawled a database of recognizable mechanical and biological entities, searching for a fit from which this one’s likely behavior could be inferred.

Angry French farmers sow Chinese-owned field in investor protest
CHÂTILLON-SUR-INDRE (FRANCE) (AFP) –
Mounted on tractors and wielding flares, angry farmers came from all corners of France to say to Chinese investors: get off our land.
More than 100 farmers swarmed on a Chinese-owned field in the Indre region of central France on Wednesday, occupying it in protest at what they say is financial speculation.
Waving the flag of France’s Farmers’ Confederation, they filled a seed drill with rye and sprayed grain in a demonstration they said symbolised the need to “take back the land for the farmers”.
“The land is there to provide for farmers’ families and to produce food,” said Laurent Pinatel, spokesman for the Farmers’ Confederation.
“The owners have come here to make a profit, to speculate on agriculture while monopolising the land.”
Chinese consortium Hongyang bought 1,700 hectares (4,200 acres) of land in the Indre in 2016, growing wheat for the international market.

Brazil presidential hopeful: let police kill criminals
A leading candidate in Brazil’s presidential election said police should be given license to kill criminals and those who do should receive medals not face prosecution.
Hard-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro said in an interview Tuesday night that he would “leave good people out of range of the shooting” and go at criminals full steam.
“This kind of people (criminals), you cannot treat them as if they were normal human beings, ok? We can’t let policemen keep dying at the hands of those guys,” Bolsonaro said on TV Globo’s main nightly news program. “”If he kills 10, 15 or 20 with 10 or 30 bullets each, he needs to get a medal and not be prosecuted.”

Once considered too extreme, Brazilian right-winger homes in on presidency
RIO DE JANEIRO (AFP) –
When Jair Bolsonaro addressed a crowd in a poor, violent area of Rio de Janeiro this week, the man long considered too extreme for the nation’s presidency was greeted with shouts of “the myth, the myth!”
In elections starting on October 7, the far-right ex-army captain and long obscure congressman could almost turn the fantasy of his campaign into something near reality.
Loathed by much of Brazil for his insults against women and gays, his alleged racism and crude exhortations for “bandits” to be shot down, Bolsonaro has surprised many by becoming a frontrunner.
The only politician currently more popular is the leftist ex-president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, a leader who also divides Brazilians — only in the other direction.
Lula would easily win the election, according to polls, but he is in prison for corruption and very unlikely to be allowed on the ballot.

Mad cow disease diagnosed in Florida beef cow
TALLAHASSEE, FLA. (WPVI) —
Florida’s Department of Agriculture announced today that a case of mad cow disease has been detected in a 6-year-old mixed breed beef cow.
The department didn’t say where the cow was, but emphasized that it never entered the slaughter channels or food supply.
Mad cow is a progressive neurologic disease.
This form of BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) is not contagious, and is different from Classic BSE, which has been linked to variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) in people.
Classic BSE occurred in the United Kingdom in the 1980s, in cattle which had been given the infectious prion agent, such as meat-and-bone meal containing protein from rendered infected cattle.

Columbia, SC (WLTX) – A cow in Oconee County has tested positive for rabies after potentially exposing three people to the disease.
Those people have been referred to their doctors for consultation, according to the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control.
The exposure reportedly occurred as the victims provided general care to the cow, which was sent to the University of Georgia for testing after it appeared sick.

Egypt appoints first-ever Christian woman as governor (abcnews, Aug 30, 2018)
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/egypt-appoints-christian-woman-governor-57496866
“Egypt’s President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi has sworn in several new provincial governors, including the first-ever Coptic Christian woman to hold the position.
Manal Awad Mikhail was appointed governor of Damietta province Thursday. She was previously a deputy for the Giza governor.
The reshuffle included new governors for Cairo, Giza, Luxor, Aswan and North Sinai.
Egypt had appointed the first-ever female governor to the province of Beheira in a reshuffle last year. The Beheira governor was changed in Thursday’s reshuffle.
Christians, who constitute about 10 percent of Egypt’s Muslim-majority population of 100 million, have long complained of discrimination and their under-representation in top government positions. Christians strongly supported general-turned-president el-Sissi who led the ouster of his Islamist predecessor.
Egypt’s current cabinet includes eight female ministers, the highest in the country’s modern history.”
USA – Muslims Demand Infidel Owner Remove ‘Perfect Man’ Sign — He Has Brilliant Counter-Offer
When Muslims noticed a billboard insulting their prophet Muhammad, they immediately demanded the removal of the “racist and Islamophobic” message. However, the uproar forced the billboard’s owner to come forward — and he has just one thing to say to them.
Leftists and Muslim groups across the U.S. loudly condemned a billboard along Interstate 465 in Indianapolis, Indiana.
The sign contains a simple message which reads, “The Perfect Man,” with check-marked bullet points including “Rapist,” “13 wives, 11 at one time,” and “Tortured & killed unbelievers.”
Although Islam was never mentioned, instantly, Muslims knew the billboard was calling out their prophet Muhammad, prompting them to demand the sign’s removal in accordance with Sharia blasphemy laws. This national outcry has already prompted the sign’s owner to relinquish his personal safety by coming forward to not only take credit for the billboard’s construction but issue yet another daring message to “truthophobes” who deny its credibility.
WTHR reports that Don Woodsmall, who is a Duke law school graduate, has proudly taken responsibility for owning the billboard but says that while he is unafraid to show his face to the Muslim community, he’ll protect his clients’ identities. Woodsmall came forward to local media to slam free speech objectors, confidently declaring that he would gladly remove the sign himself — all they have to do is prove the statement wrong.
In his statement, Woodsmall says, “It is interesting to note… the Muslim community knew exactly who it was referring to. The truth is a powerful weapon.”
Woodsmall explained that he only agreed to erect the sign after thoroughly researching each claim and finding proof directly in the passages of the Quran and hadith. In addition, he spoke to at least half a dozen Islamic scholars who confirmed the scriptures in question.
“I was convinced that each point listed on the billboard was historically and factually true. I would encourage others to do their own research to verify the veracity of each and every point,” Woodsmall wrote. He also noted that he would remove the billboards if the statements are proven to be false.
Despite Muslims demanding that Woodsmall names his clients, undoubtedly for nefarious purposes, the billboard owner refuses to endanger their lives. The unwavering owner slammed the sign’s critics, reminding them that it is the very definition of free speech to question and tear apart lies and toxic ideologies.
“My clients want this national conversation to happen if we are ever to overcome the violence that plagues Islam,” he wrote to 13 Investigates. “This is not only pro-American, but beneficial to Muslims who came to America to escape the Sharia.”
Disturbingly, designated terrorist group CAIR and lying Muslims are declaring the message “racist” and “Islamophobic,” although none can provide any scripture or historical text to back up their claims. On the other hand, each one of the bullet points has a direct correlation to the Quran and hadith.
“Married 6 year old” — Sahih Muslim (8:3309), Sahih Bukhari (58:234, 3896, 5158, and 3311)
“Beheaded 600 Jews in one day” — Quran (33:26), Ibn Ishaq/Hisham (674), Abu Dawud (4390)
“Slave owner & dealer” — Sahih Muslim (3901), Sahih Bukhari (47:743), Quran (4:24, 33:52)
“13 wives, 11 at one time” — Sahih Bukhari (62:6), Sahih Bukhari (5:268)
“Rapist” — Abu Dawud (2150), Sahih Muslim (3433), Quran (4:24, 33:50), Sahih Bukhari (34:432), Sahih Muslim (3371)
“Tortured & killed unbelievers” — Quran (8:67), Sahih Muslim (4322), Sahih Bukhari (52:256, 11:626), (Ibn Ishaq/Hisham 819, Ibn Kathir v.3 p.403), 109 verses of violence
If the Muslim critics were honest, they’d point out that the only flaw in Woodsmall’s message is that Muhammad didn’t necessarily behead 600 Jews in one day — historical records suggest it a number between 500 and 900 Jews and likely over a period of several days. Potato, potato.
If the left considers it “hate speech” to summarize these Islamic passages, then it would mean that the Quran and hadith are hate speech. It’s not racist to denounce Muhammad’s ownership of dozens of black slaves as racist. In fact, it’s racist to defend Muhammad’s slave ownership and attempt to censor it.
The truth is that the prophet Muhammad boasted of his own slave ownership, sex slavery, marriage to a child, and mass slaughter of unbelieving men, women, and children. These are not fear-mongering allegations but direct quotations from the prophet, his closest companions, and even his favorite child bride, Aisha.
It is inexcusable for Muslims to demand we shut up or apologize for pointing out the behavior of their prophet. Instead, they are the ones who should be apologizing.

Army officer turned hotel boss, 46, molested girls aged four and eight while they were staying at his guesthouse with their family after luring them into his bedroom to look at his cats (dailymail, Aug 30, 2018)
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6113389/Army-officer-turned-hotel-boss-46-molested-girls-aged-four-eight.html
“A hotel boss who molested two little girls while they were staying at his guesthouse by luring them into his bedroom to look at his cats is facing jail.
Former army intelligence officer Adam Saleem, 46, assaulted the youngsters aged just four and eight at his luxury property in the village of Hale Barns, near Altrincham, in Greater Manchester.
The victims who had been staying with their parents at the hotel near Manchester Airport ahead of a trip to Florida for a 50th birthday celebration.
He coaxed them into his bedroom on the pretext of showing them rescue cats he kept and the children were touched inappropriately after he shut his bedroom door and knelt down in front of them.
The attack only ended when their unsuspecting father knocked on the door, walked into the bedroom room and said it was the girls’ bed-time.
At the time the youngsters were too scared to say what happened and the family went on holiday unaware of their ordeals.
The truth only emerged six months later when the older girl told her mother after their father watched a TV programme about a missing child and told his daughters they could talk to him if ever had encounters with ‘nasty men.’
During a video interview with police the eight year old showed officers where Saleem had touched her and even re-enacted how he carried out the assault…”
London Police Boss Denies ‘No-Go Areas’ After ‘Regular’ Attacks on Officers (breitbart, Aug 30, 2018)
https://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/08/30/london-police-boss-denies-no-go-areas-regular-attacks-officers/
“The head of London police has been forced to deny parts of the capital are becoming “no-go areas” after two shocking recent incidents where the public was filmed cheering as officers were assaulted on the job.
The Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Cressida Dick, said she welcomed members of the public filming and scrutinising officers, but insisted it was “wrong” for them to cheer on a suspected gun criminal struggling with police.
She appeared to be talking about an incident on the 17th of August when people in east London were filmed shouting “go on son!” and “look at the strength!” as the suspect struggled with officers and evaded arrest.
Officers were hospitalised and the suspect was later charged with assault on police, possession of a firearm with criminal intent, obstructing a drugs search, and driving whilst uninsured…”
Cressida Dickless would be far more apt although not a trans as she is just another leftist PC clone UK bureaucrat whose lack of ability to actually see the necessity of disagreeing with lunatic policies makes her a political eunuch.
Austria: Mogherini warns of ‘heavy consequences’ if rescue mission axed
Federica Mogherini, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, spoke of the “heavy consequences” of discontinuing the European Union’s migrant rescue Operation Sophia at an informal meeting in Vienna on Thursday.
Mogherini’s comments came in response to Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini’s threats to leave the operation unless a solution was found to ease pressure on his country’s ports.
Since its introduction in 2015, Operation Sophia has led to an 80% reduction in port arrivals and sea deaths, according to statistics quoted by Mogherini.
Austrian Defence Minister Mario Kunasek also commented on migrant rescue operations, suggesting “civilian-military co-operation” as a potential solution to the crisis.

Macron Tells Denmark ‘No Such Thing as a True Dane, True Frenchman’ (breitbart, Aug 30, 2018)
https://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/08/30/macron-denmark-true-dane-frenchman/
“French politicians have reacted with anger after Emmanuel Macron asserted that “true” Frenchmen and Danes “do not exist”, and attacked the people he rules over as stubbornly resistant to change while on an official visit to Denmark.
The French president made the remarks while on a three-day tour of Denmark and Finland, where he is hoping to establish a “progressive arc” of nations supporting his vision of a globalised EU superstate, which would revolve around a liberal conception of human rights, ahead of European Parliament elections next year.
Speaking before a gala lobster dinner on Wednesday, at which Denmark’s Queen Margaret was in attendance, Macron praised the Scandinavian nation as one which is “completely open to the rest of the world” compared with a France whose people he said showed a “Gaulish stubborn resistance to change”.
France has a “deep and complex identity, which has always been thought of as universalism”, the former investment banker said, before stating he believes he has succeeded in provoking “cultural change” in the native since his election last year.
“People are changing their minds, they are much more open to risk,” he told the event, which was broadcast on Danish television.
“You will see France transformed by its people.”
Asked by a Danish student about the future of national identities in Europe, Macron said that “the ‘true Dane’ does not exist — he is a European”.
“Even your language is not just Danish — it is European. The same is true for the French”, he added.
The president’s performance overseas attracted ire from French politicians including far-left populist Alexis Corbière, who accused him of having “not only shown contempt towards his own people” but also of displaying “an astounding level of stupidity”, tweeting that Macron was “ignorant of the fact the Gauls were great inventors”.
Meanwhile, National Rally leader Marine Le Pen commented: “In Denmark, Macron castigates the ‘Gaulish stubborn resistance to change’. As usual, he despises the French from abroad! The ‘Gauls’ will be happy to respond to his arrogance and contempt!”
Fabien Di Filippo, a National Assembly member for the Republicans — the leader of which this week announced that the traditionally centre-right French party would be taking a tough new line on mass migration — also hit out at the globalist leader.
“Between the denial of French identity and [his coining] a new insult to the French people, President Rothschild Emmanuel Macron has outdone himself again while in Denmark,” he posted on Twitter.”
Macron is dirty, filthy compromised.
Macron’s Partition of France?
• The first legislative rider abolished the obligation of religious associations to declare themselves as lobbying groups – a measure that clearly opens the way for entities such as the Muslim Brotherhood to lobby Members of Parliament without leaving a trace.
• Is it, however, the business of the secular State of France to organize Muslims and train “republican” imams?
• The tradition in France ever since the 1905 secularism law – one accepted by all religions except Islam – is that religion may not to impose its rules on secular society. Now it is France that must adapt to Islam.
• The big question is: Who will be heading and managing this new framework? Will it be the MB, the most powerful org, which controls more than 2,000 mosques in France? Or a young guard of Muslim technocrats close to the president but with no ties to mosques, imams and the organized Muslim community in general?

Qatar: France’s Generous Financer of Mosques
• The Great Mosque of Poitiers, for instance, sits in the vicinity of the site of the Battle of Tours, where Charles Martel, ruler of the Franks, stopped the advancing Muslim army of Abdul al-Rahman in the year 732.
• “We have funds from abroad… it comes from the faithful of Saudi Arabia and Qatar,” says Ahmed Jamaleddine, treasurer of the Amal association, which is behind the construction of “the Great Mosque of Saint-Denis.” Saint-Denis also happens to be home to a famous Cathedral, the Basilica of Saint-Denis – which contains the royal necropolis where many of France’s kings are buried.
• The Emir of Qatar appears to have a far greater grasp of French history than many French do.

New Pakistani minister bans ‘vulgar’ movie billboards, critics fear rise of Islamists (reuters, Aug 30, 2018)
https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-pakistan-politics-vulgarity/new-pakistani-minister-bans-vulgar-movie-billboards-critics-fear-rise-of-islamists-idUKKCN1LF1VE
“Punjab’s new information minister, Islamist politician Fayaz-ul-Hasan Chohan, has announced a ban on “vulgar” movie billboards in the Pakistani province, angering those who fear the growing influence of hardliners under new Prime Minister Imran Khan.
Since Khan’s party appointed him last week, Chohan has caused a number of rows, including with his visit to the grave of a man sentenced to death for killing the governor of Punjab in 2011, and with critical remarks about Nargis, a popular Pakistani singer and actress.
“If any vulgar billboard is found at any cinema in Punjab after three days, there will be a fine in first place, and if any one didn’t comply, that cinema will be shut down,” Chohan told a public meeting in the eastern city of Lahore.
“Is there any humanity that you print half-naked women and put them on big billboards?” he said.
Khan’s election victory in July was helped by strong support from Islamist parties. Chohan joined Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Justice Movement from the Islamist party Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan.

Suspects
Suspects are a 23-year-old Syrian and a 22-year-old Iraqi, who were taken into custody near the scene.
The German Prosecutor released an arrest warrant for them on 27 August.
One of these suspects was named in the days after the attack as Yousif Ibrahim Abdullah from Bashiqa, and the arrest warrant for him was leaked in multiple newspapers on August 28.
This goes against all German privacy regulations. Abdullah is accused of stabbing [ Daniel ] Hillig five times, including the fatal hits to his pericardium and lung.
The other suspect was named as Alaa Sheikhi, with his accusations not revealed at the same time as his name.
The German people were publicly reported as upset because of the violations of information privacy laws. 🙂 🙂 🙂

reuters – Germany probes leak of arrest warrant after Chemnitz stabbing
BERLIN (Reuters) – Germany has launched a probe into the leak to far-right groups of an arrest warrant against an Iraqi suspect in a stabbing case that triggered two days of violent anti-immigrant protests.
Interior Minister Horst Seehofer said judicial authorities should use all means at their disposal to respond to the leak of the warrant for the arrest of the 22-year-old Iraqi suspect over the fatal stabbing of a 35-year-old German man.
The death sparked violent anti-foreigner protests in the eastern city of Chemnitz.
The leak of the warrant was a highly unusual occurrence that drew sharp criticism across Germany, which has strict privacy guidelines for judicial proceedings, and raised concerns of possible links between police and anti-migrant parties.
Critics said the warrant, which contained details of the number of stab wounds, may have been leaked to further inflame anger against migrants.
The stabbing and subsequent protests have exposed deep divisions in German society over Chancellor Angela Merkel’s 2015 decision to open the door to more than one million migrants, mostly Muslims fleeing Middle East conflicts.
The incident has also laid bare close links between a range of anti-migrant groups, including soccer hooligans and the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, and their ability to quickly mobilize thousands of demonstrators.
Prosecutors on Wednesday said they had launched an investigation into the leak and had taken steps to protect two witnesses named in the document.
The deputy premier of the state, Martin Dulig, a Social Democrat, suggested in two German media interviews that the leak had likely come from police or judicial authorities. “We have a bigger problem to deal with there,” he told broadcaster MDR.
A spokesman for the Dresden prosecutor’s office, which is handling the investigation, said the circle of those who had access to the document was not small.
ANTI-MIGRANT RIOTS
Neither the Iraqi, nor a second suspect arrested in the stabbing, a 23-year-old Syrian man, had engaged an attorney, making it unlikely the leak came from them, experts said.
Saxon police last week apologized for a separate incident involving an off-duty police employee at an anti-Islam rally.
The AfD and PEGIDA, a far-right group that is under observation by intelligence agencies, say they will march again in Chemnitz on Saturday to “mourn Daniel Hillig (the stabbing victim) and the others killed by Germany’s forced multiculturalisation.”
PEGIDA co-founder Lutz Bachmann was among the first to publish the arrest warrant on Tuesday evening, along with a group called “Pro Chemnitz” and a local AfD politician.
Fifty-seven percent of Germans view the anti-migrant riots, during which at least 10 people raised their arms in the banned “Hitler salute”, as a danger to democracy, a new Civey poll showed.
Ninety percent of AfD backers did not see the protests as a threat to democracy, it showed.
AfD leader Alexander Gauland justified the anti-migrant riots as self-defense in an interview with Die Welt newspaper. “When a homicide like this occurs, it’s normal that people flip out. Self-defense is certainly not vigilante justice.”
Merkel and her cabinet discussed the situation during a cabinet meeting on Wednesday and underscored their opposition to any form of vigilance justice, Seehofer told reporters. Such actions were “completely unacceptable.”
But U.N. human rights chief Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein called for more widespread denunciation of what he called “shocking” images from Chemnitz. “We really need a concentration of voices now to say that when we have incitement to hatred this is prohibited under international human rights law,” he told reporters.

Voice of America – UN Rights Chief: Germany’s Far-Right Demos ‘Shocking’
GENEVA — Images of far-right protestors delivering Nazi salutes in Germany this week were “really shocking,” the UN rights chief said Wednesday, warning against growing “amnesia” for the horrors of past European wars.
A knife killing Sunday in Germany’s ex-communist eastern region of Saxony, which has long been a hotspot for xenophobia, sparked protests that degenerated into right-wing extremist mobs hunting down immigrants in the streets.
Images of the protests, including of protestors making the illegal Hitler salute, “were really quite shocking,” Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein told reporters in Geneva.
He said it was easy to feel “dispirited” at the rise across Europe of “extreme-right political parties with seemingly complete amnesia” for what sparked the two world wars that began on the continent.
“We cannot simply concealed from our memories the traumas of the past, because it’s frightening to see how the same devices are being used again,” he insisted.
Zeid, who is set to step down from his position as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights at the end of the week, stressed that the UN could not be the sole voice speaking out against the dangerous development.
“I think it’s fundamentally important that public officials throughout Europe denounce all of this,” he said.
“We really need a concentration of voices now to say that when we have incitement to hatred, this is prohibited under international human rights law.”
‘Undercurrent of prejudice’
After the fatal stabbing of a German man, 35, allegedly by a Syrian and an Iraqi, thousands of protesters marched in the eastern city of Chemnitz for two straight days, some chasing down people they believed were immigrants.
Police reported assaults by extremists against at least three foreigners on Sunday, while investigations were opened in 10 cases of the protesters performing the illegal Hitler salute.
At least 20 people were injured on Monday as pyrotechnics and other objects were hurled by both far-right demonstrators as well as anti-fascist counter-protesters in the city.
Zeid said Wednesday the focus on the immigrant origins of the alleged perpetrators of the initial stabbing was “disturbing”.
While stressing that the perpetrators obviously needed to be punished, he pointed out that in many European countries, “the equivalent crime committed by a non-immigrant may get some coverage but not nearly the same coverage as an immigrant would receive.”
“There is an undercurrent of prejudice that works its way into those media that are somehow connected to the extreme right wing,” he warned.
Such coverage, he said, play “into the natural prejudices and bigotry that exist within every society around the world.”
“But it’s particularly I think worrisome to see it in Europe because of the enormous traumas that Europe itself witnessed during the 20th century.”

“Ten thousand Islamic radicals have rallied in Pakistan against a ‘Draw Mohammed’ contest being hosted in the Netherlands by Geert Wilders, as the South Asian country’s politicians demand global blasphemy laws.
Islamists defied the authorities to march on the Pakistani capital of Islamabad from the city of Lahore chanting “we will die to protect the honour of the prophet” to protest Wilders’ contest, according to The Washington Post.
The march was organised by Islamist groups including Tehreek-i-Labaik group, which supported the election bid of new prime minister Imran Khan — who is famous in Britain as a cricket star and celebrity playboy, but now courts so-called “traditionalists” and the military establishment as a politician…”

Father of two jihadis killed in Syria is jailed for 18 months after threatening to have his wife shot if she gave evidence against him (dailymail, Aug 30, 2018)
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6115295/Father-two-jihadis-killed-Syria-jailed-18-months-threatening-wife-shot.html
“The father of two fighters who died in Syria, has been jailed after threatening to have his wife shot if she gave evidence against him.
Abubaker Deghayes, 50, a former leader of the al-Quds Mosque in Brighton and the brother of Guantanamo detainee Omar Deghayes, was found guilty of attempting to pervert the course of justice at Blackfriars Crown Court in London.
He was charged with assaulting Einas Abulsayen, who claimed he rammed her face into the carpet and pushed his fingers up her nose in an attempt to remove the jinns or evil spirits from her body.
After she reported him to the police Deghayes went to her brother’s house on November 27 and tried to speak to her but was prevented by the relative.
He told the brother: ‘Tell Einas to leave the country for a few months so the police drop the case’.
Deyhayes was cleared of the exorcism assault, but jailed for trying to prevent his wife giving evidence.
Both juries were unaware that Deghayes had previously been accused of whipping his children with electric cable, sparking a social services inquiry.
The case was moved from Brighton so that the jury was not aware of his notorious family background…”
Wilders announced on Twitter today he’s giving up on the cartoon contest. He cites the endangerement of dutch citizens in Pakistan.
There’s also the price on his head, a fatwa against him, and of course the terrorist who was arrested. He’s staying in jail for now btw.
August 30, 2018: Ep. 796 New Details About The Astonishing Effort to Cover Up This Scandal

Smoking Gun Memo Laid Out Left’s Assault on Conservatives
While President Trump was being inaugurated, the Soros-funded Left was busy agitating.
August 30, 2018
Matthew Vadum
A strategy memo compiled by George Soros-funded activist groups as President Trump was being inaugurated last year foretold and seemed to lay the groundwork for many of the political difficulties Trump now faces and the politics-related strife now roiling the nation.
The memo takes on a heightened importance as the politically-driven censorship of conservatives by the gigantic, unregulated social media corporations controlled by the Left is moving into high gear while the crucial midterm congressional elections of Nov. 6 approach.
The intensely anti-conservative animus in the memo may have inspired MasterCard and WorldPay’s attempt on Aug. 21 to strangle the fundraising efforts of the David Horowitz Freedom Center, publisher of FrontPage, by refusing to complete its financial transactions. On that day MasterCard informed the Freedom Center that it would no longer process its transactions because it had been labeled a “hate group” by the radical leftist groups known as the Southern Poverty Law Center and ColorOfChange.org. The Freedom Center stood falsely accused of being “hateful in nature” and “advocating for violence.”
Only a massive outcry by conservative groups and prominent conservatives like Rush Limbaugh forced MasterCard to back down days later and restore the Freedom Center’s online fundraising facilities. But other conservative websites haven’t been so lucky. Many have been shut down or seen their traffic slashed as leftists have manipulated algorithms and limited the reach of conservative content.

A Diversity of Acid Attacks, Witchcraft Abuse, Genital Mutilation and Terror
Immigrant groups mutilate, abuse and kill their own children to stop diversity.
August 30, 2018
Daniel Greenfield
2017 was a banner year for acid attacks in Britain.
465 of them occurred in London. Most of the acid attacks are taking place in East London. The borough of Newham tops the acid attacks chart with 85 last year. What’s so special about Newham?
Nothing the media will tell you.
Newham has the second highest Muslim percentage population and the lowest native British population in London. Tower Hamlets, which has the highest Muslim population percentage, has the second highest rate of acid attacks.
None of the two dozen media explainers pretending to explain why London became the world’s acid attack capital have bothered citing that simple statistic. Instead there’s lots of mumbling about poverty, gang violence and the need for household cleaner control. To add on to the failed knife control policy.
The UK boasts the highest number of recorded acid attacks in the world. It narrowly beats out Bangladesh for the honor only because it has more transparent crime statistics and because a sizable percentage of the population of that Muslim country has relocated to the cozy boroughs of London.

Justice for Victims of Yezidi Genocide?
It’s long overdue.
August 30, 2018
Rachel Avraham
About four years ago, in August 2014, ISIS began slaughtering the Yezidis in Iraq and committed a genocide against this ancient community, massacring over 5,000, abducting 7,450 women and girls who were then sold into sexual slavery and driving over 500,000 out of their ancestral homes. Although the Yezidi genocide has received widespread international recognition due to the indisputable evidence that has been presented including the existence of mass graves, witness testimonies and ISIS publications online inciting against Yezidis and documenting massacres of them, four years on, the Yezidis have not yet received justice for the horrific atrocities that were committed against them. The question remains, why is this the case and when will there be justice for the Yezidi people?
In Iraq and Syria, where the crimes of the Yezidi genocide were perpetrated, it is unlikely that the Yezidi victims will get justice. In Syria, rebels allied with Turkey have destroyed Yezidi holy sites and forcefully converted Yezidis in Afrin to Islam. There are also reports of Yezidis being forced to wear the hijab in these areas. So far, Turkey’s allies have been able to act against the Yezidis in Afrin with impunity, without any interference from the outside world.
Unfortunately, the Syrian regime is part of the problem rather than the solution when it comes to putting an end to radical Islamism within Syria. They are an ally of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, who systematically oppresses women and minorities both within their own country and in countries that fall under their influence due to the creation of a radical Shia Crescent from the Persian Gulf to the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. Furthermore, according to local sources within Syria, while the Kurdish authorities that liberated areas from the yoke of ISIS are attempting to promote women’s rights in those areas today, the Syrian regime has not followed suite in the areas that they control, doing virtually nothing to advance the status of women and minorities within the country. If anything, the plight of women and minorities under Assad’s control is one step above the plight of women and minorities under the control of ISIS and other radical Islamist groups. This works to worsen the plight of Yezidis in Syria.

New York Times: If You Care About Mollie Tibbets’ Murder, You’re Racist
It was politically incorrect to care about Mollie… It was a hate crime to mourn her. It was racist to care.
August 30, 2018
Daniel Greenfield
he New York Times, a paper which hired Sarah Jeong, an actual racist, decided to accuse Americans upset over the brutal murder of a young woman of racism.
That’s David Leonhardt of the New York Times, complaining that, “The hoopla over her killing is a classic example of bigotry”.

The impeachment delusion: Democrats dreaming about impeachment would have no clue what hit them
It’s actually surreal to think how easily the media can dupe people into thinking that President Trump is going to be impeached and possibly removed from office.
For the last five-and-a-half years of the Bush administration, the Democratic Party howled that Bush “lied us to war to enrich his friends.” In the history of democracy, this is probably the most egregious charge ever leveled against a democratic leader.
With more than 4,000 dead and tens of thousands maimed for life “under false pretenses,” it easily dwarfs the famed Watergate scandal, in which no one died. And yet the Democrats of the previous decade refused to back up their incendiary rhetoric with even the slightest hint of impeachment proceedings.
Now, the very people who gave “war criminal” Bush a free pass on one of the most serious charges in history are chomping at the bit to impeach Trump — a President who has improved the U.S. economy and racked up a series of other accomplishments.

Italy: Interior Minister Accused of Kidnapping Migrants
“Being investigated for defending the rights of Italians is a disgrace.”

Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini is under formal investigation for “kidnapping” after he refused to allow illegal migrants to disembark from a ship at a Sicilian port. The investigation, a political move aimed at blunting the government’s hardline stance on illegal immigration, has threatened to plunge Italy into a constitutional crisis over the separation of powers.
Sicilian Prosecutor Luigi Patronaggio said that the investigation into Salvini, the head of the anti-immigration League party, would focus on “kidnapping, illegal arrest and the abuse of power.”
Salvini responded:

According to the website of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), under the section “National Security Threats – Terrorism”:
The CSIS text, last modified on January 27, 2017, also notes that, despite ISIS’s huge losses, “its ideology continues to hold global appeal, including among susceptible Canadians,” and Canadians with extremist Muslim views “continue to engage in a range of terrorist activity, in Canada and abroad.”
By January 2017, CSIS was aware of:
