The young “Frenchman” who stabbed a British woman and a dog to death at a hostel in Queensland appears to have been motivated at least in part by sexual obsession with the victim (the human victim, that is — not sure about the dog), in addition to the jihad aspect implied by “Allahu Akhbar”. If so, it makes this incident very similar to the murder of a Polish woman in a Reutlingen restaurant back in July. Perhaps the killer lusted after her, and fantasized that she was already his property, an infidel sex slave possessed by his right hand. Then, when she popped his testosterone-filled balloon, he went into full jihad mode to avenge his injured honor, just like the perp in Reutlingen.
In other news, a coordinated jihad attack on American University in Kabul killed one person and wounded at least 25 others.

Leaked Docs: Soros Aims to Enlarge Electorate by 10 Million Voters by 2018
Soros has bankrolled efforts to challenge voter ID laws, register minority voters
A top priority of liberal billionaire George Soros is to enlarge the U.S. electorate by 10 million voters by 2018, according to leaked documents.
The plan to grow the electorate by millions of voters was discussed during a May 2014 board meeting of the Open Society Foundations, a liberal grant-making group founded by Soros. A 220-page guide detailing the plan was among more than 2,500 hacked Soros documents released by DC Leaks, which publishes documents from influential officials around the world.
The guide covers strategies and tactics the group will employ in the United States from 2015 to 2018. The top goals listed by the guide are to “advance electoral reform” and “combat suppression.”
[Comments: Soros tring to ccreate a one party staty in the US through the Demoncrat party — the result will be a communist tyranny. If he succeeds watch for civil war 2.0 in order to toss out the banksters and communists stooges and assorted useful idiots.]

Solid Evidence That the Media is Biased Against Donald
Donald Trump Words — Public DomainOnce upon a time, the mainstream media worked very hard to maintain the illusion that they were “ objective” and “ unbiased” when it came to reporting on national elections, but now those days are long gone. Some of the biggest newspapers in the country like the New York Times and the Washington Post are publishing hit piece after hit piece in an all-out attempt to destroy Donald Trump. In fact, if you go to just about any prominent mainstream news website on any particular day, it is inevitable that you will find an anti-Trump story on the main page right near the top, and it is usually accompanied by a pro-Clinton story nearby. Of course the big cable news networks are constantly spewing an endless stream of anti-Trump propaganda as well. In fact, it has been documented that CNN has spent literally half their time on anti-Trump stories on certain days. The elite are desperate to keep Donald Trump out of the White House, and if that means shedding all notions of media objectivity and sicking their attack dogs on Trump day after day, then that is precisely what they are going to do.
Just look at how the media are covering the political response to the tragedy in Louisiana. Hillary Clinton has not visited the state. Barack Obama has not visited either, although he has finally been publicly shamed into scheduling a visit.
But Donald Trump took the time to go down and see the suffering firsthand, and he was greeted very warmly by cheering crowds. One supporter reportedly yelled out “ we knew you’d be here Mr. Trump” , and the 18-wheeler full of supplies that he brought with him definitely helped a lot of hurting families.
Sadly, the mainstream media had to turn this into a negative story about how this was just a “ photo op” for Trump, and an incredible amount of attention was given to one particular aid worker that is virulently anti-Trump. The following is a portion of what this aid worker had to say about Trump’ s visit…
“ I don’t want to see you in your suit in AUGUST carrying boxes off a truck like you care about us. Louisiana is an incredible place. Baton Rouge is my home and I have watched people drop EVERYTHING to help one another during this time. The whole country seems to be floored by the generosity and love that our residents show each other during tough times, but to us this is normal. This is Louisiana. And you do not belong here.”
Why doesn’ t Donald Trump belong there?
He is running for president — of course he belongs there.
But this is what the anti-Trump forces do. They spin every story into something negative for Trump.
What we have seen during this campaign season has been absolutely unprecedented. The following are just five headlines that I have picked out that show how incredibly biased the media is against Trump…

Taxpayer-Backed School Holds Lesson on How to ‘Stop White People’
“The premise of this session is to help others take the next step in understanding diversity, privilege, and the society we function within,” the class description says
The State University of New York at Binghamton (SUNY-Binghamton) is offering a training class titled “StopWhitePeople2k16,” to instruct residential assistants (RAs) on how to deal with “uneducated” people who don’t believe in ideas like white privilege.
The class is just one of several available to RAs at the school, and was discovered by the Binghamton Review, a student newspaper. Residential assistants are students who agree to assist with overseeing and monitoring residential life in return for receiving a free room from the school. Apparently, though, Binghamton RAs also have the responsibility of “stopping” white people.

The End of the Wicked Witch of the Left?
Even the left-wing MSM seems to be sensing that events could be moving to a cataclysmic end for Hillary’s presidential aspirations.
Every day (sometimes hourly), there are new revelations about missing, deleted emails that are being recovered; more and more evidence that points to Hillary’s deteriorating health; previous scandals that have gained new traction; more to come from WikiLeaks…but the thing that is truly proving to be the albatross hanging around Hillary’s neck is the Clinton Foundation scandal.
By now it should be patently obvious that this so-called charity is nothing more than a money laundering scheme where political influence and favors are sold to the highest bidder. The millions that have poured into the Clinton Foundation from corporations-and even worse-foreign interests, have been influencing government policy.
It is especially egregious that these activities occurred while Hillary was Secretary of State. While supposedly her ethics agreement precluded Hillary from conducting such activities, other State Department employees-including gal-pal Huma Abedin were busy arranging access to Hillary by foreign mega-donors to the Clinton Foundation. The left-leaning website Politico broke this story about Abedin brokering a meeting with Crown Prince Salman of Bahrain.

Obama Admin Won’t Tell Congress How It Paid Iran $1.3 Billion in Taxpayer Funds
The Obama administration is withholding from Congress details about how $1.3 billion in U.S. taxpayer funds was delivered to Iran, according to conversations with lawmakers, who told the Washington Free Beacon that the administration is now stonewalling an official inquiry into the matter.
The Departments of State, Treasury, and Justice have all rebuffed a congressional probe into the circumstances surrounding the $1.3 billion payment to Iran, which is part of an additional $400 million cash payout that occurred just prior to the release of several U.S. hostages and led to accusations that the administration had paid Iran a ransom.

Trump Will Face a Huge Challenge With U.S. Intelligence if He Wins
Before his classified national-security briefing yesterday, Donald Trump said he didn’t trust U.S. intelligence. His comments attracted the expected condemnations and ridicule from the media pundits and foreign-policy experts. However, based on my 25 years working in U.S. intelligence, I believe Trump’s concerns are well-founded.
On Wednesday, Trump received the intelligence briefing traditionally provided by the U.S. Intelligence Community to newly nominated presidential candidates. This briefing was preceded by calls from the Clinton campaign, other Democrats, and, privately, by some intelligence officials that Trump be denied these briefings because, they claim, he can’t be trusted to protect classified information.
Harry Reid, the top Democrat in the Senate, actually asked intelligence analysts to give Trump fake briefings.
The Washington Post ‘s intelligence reporter Greg Miller reported on July 28 that a senior intelligence official told Miller privately that he would refuse to brief Trump because of concerns about Trump’s alleged admiration of Russian president Putin and because “he’s been so uninterested in the truth and so reckless with it when he sees it.” Reuters ran a similar story on June 2, reporting that eight senior security officials said they had concerns about briefing Trump; Reuters did not indicate how many of the officials cited were intelligence officials or Obama appointees.
These calls to deny intelligence briefings to a presidential candidate are unprecedented, but they also reflect a serious problem within the U.S. intelligence community that awaits a possible Trump administration: the politicization of American intelligence by the Left.
I saw this constantly during my 19 years as a CIA analyst. CIA officers frequently tried to undermine CIA directors Casey and Gates because they disagreed with President Reagan’s policy goal of defeating the Soviet Union. Several testified against Gates’s nomination to be CIA director in 1991 by lodging false claims that he and Casey had politicized intelligence. Former senator Warren Rudman, a moderate Republican who headed President Clinton’s Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board, described these attacks by CIA analysts as “an attempted assassination, an assassination of [Gates’s] character . . . McCarthyism, pure and simple.”
The liberal tilt within the CIA, especially in the Directorate of Intelligence (the analysis office), grew worse during the Clinton years as personnel were hired and promoted to support Clinton-Gore policy objectives. These included wasteful initiatives such as the DCI Environmental Center, launched at the same time the CIA was dangerously downplaying counterterrorism analysis.

Brexit Britain Can Finally Take Back Control of Its Fishing Industry, Says Top Economist
BREXIT has given Britain a “unique opportunity” to grab back control of its fishing industry, a top economist claimed yesterday.
A break with Europe means the UK can finally stop the EU’s Common Fisheries Policy “savaging” its waters.
Under the current Brussels-run system, 80 percent of the fish caught in British territorial waters are netted by foreign boats.
And up to 50 percent of all catches — about 1.7million tonnes — are thrown back dead or dying in order to avoid breaking EU quotas aimed at halting overfishing.

Germans Will be Asked to Stockpile Food and Water ‘In Case of a Catastrophe’
Germany is planning to urge its citizens to stockpile food, water and other supplies in the event of a catastrophe or armed attack.
According to a report by German broadcaster Deutsche Welle (DW), citing the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung newspaper, the move would be the first of its kind since the end of the Cold War.
The proposal is reportedly contained in a government civil-defense-strategy document, which says that people should stock 10 days worth of food and a sufficient supply of water, energy, money and medicine that would allow them to stay put long enough for the government to respond.
The mood in Germany has been unsettled recently following a number of horrific incidents. In the latest violence, on July 24, a Syrian suicide bomber injured 15 people at a music festival in the central German town of Ansbach. The same day, a Syrian refugee killed a woman and injured two others with a machete in Reutlingen. Just days previous, an ISIS-inspired attacker was shot dead after stabbing several people on a train in the south of the country.

The Swedish State Drives Security Guard Out of Work — Based on Her Political Views
Seeing as Josefine has no criminal record and she hasn’t had any problems with performing her work duties, there can be only one explanation as to why she was let go from her position: The Swedish government wants to prohibit people from working based on their political beliefs. Josefine has been involved with the Nordic Resistance Movement for as many years as she has been working as a security guard, but this year she has been more visible within the movement as she acted as photographer for the website Nordfront at a major political rally in Borlänge. But her political engagement has not affected her ability to perform her work duties, she says:
— I keep my private life separate from my professional life.
Josefine has plans to lodge an appeal against council’s investigation.

Dr. Ahmed Al-Tayeb: Meet the World’s “Most Influential Muslim”
There’s nothing like knowing Arabic — that is, being privy to the Muslim world’s internal conversations on a daily basis — to disabuse oneself of the supposed differences between so-called “moderate” and “radical” Muslims.
Consider the case of Egypt’s Dr. Ahmed al-Tayeb. Hardly one to be dismissed as a fanatic who is ignorant of the true tenets of Islam, Tayeb’s credentials and career are impressive: he holds a Ph. D in Islamic philosophy from the Paris-Sorbonne University; formerly served as Grand Imam of Egypt, meaning he was the supreme interpreter of Islamic law; and since 2003 has been president of Al-Azhar University, considered the world’s leading institution of Islamic learning. A 2013 survey named Tayeb the “most influential Muslim in the world.”…
While such open hypocrisy-also known as taqiyya-may go unnoticed in the West, in Egypt, human rights groups often call him out. The Cairo Institute for Human Rights recently issued a statement accusing Al Azhar of having two faces: one directed at the West and which preaches freedom and tolerance, and one directed to Muslims and which sounds not unlike ISIS:

How Islamic State Militants Recruit and Coerce Children
This week the world once again witnessed the Islamic State group’s use of at least one child bomber, perhaps two.
A child between the ages of 12 and 14 wasreportedly the culprit behind a suicide attack, blowing up the wedding of Besna and Nurettin Akdogan in Gaziantep, Turkey, and killing 54 people on August 20.
Although now the Turkish Government is not certain whether it was a child or an adult, it certainly would not be the only time children had been used by terrorist networks to perpetrate attacks.
The following day, a child was caught before he could detonate a suicide bomb at a Shi’a school in Kirkuk, Iraq.

A 30-year-old British man was in critical condition in hospital after the attack south of the city of Townsville late yesterday night.

Maori King Wants Maori Share in NZ Sovereignty by 2025
Editor’s note: Despite all the evidence, it has already been ruled that Maori never agreed to be under The Crown’s rule of law. Now they want to make this official by giving Maori dual governance with the existing New Zealand government. Note the line in this article that says “I see a voting constituency of Maori across the country that will exceed 65 per cent of the general population who identify as Maori”. This means a minority white voting block who don’t vote racially, against a majority one that does.
The Maori king has called for a Maori share in New Zealand’s sovereignty by 2025.
King Tuheitia used a landmark speech commemorating his 10th anniversary on the throne today to propose a formal role for Maori in the country’s leadership.
He did not spell out what he meant by “sovereignty”, but seemed to imply a role for Maori tribes or iwi.

Police are investigating whether a young British woman was stabbed to death by a French knifeman who was infatuated with her, it is claimed.
Smail Ayad screamed ‘Allahu Akbar’ as he butchered pretty backpacker Mia Ayliffe-Chung, 21, in a bloody rampage in front of 30 horrified witnesses on Tuesday night.
Ayad, 29, was said to be obsessed with Mia and even told other guests at the backpacker’s hostel in Queensland they were married, the local Townsville Bulletin reported.
He is said to have told other guests they were ‘deeply in love’ but became outraged when he discovered Ms Aycliffe-Chung had posed for photos in a magazine and did not share his feelings.

Children granted refugee status in Germany will cost the country an extra 67 billion euros (£58bn/$76bn) to educate, according to an assessment of the costs of the migrant crisis.
Around 40 per cent of the million+ people who arrived in Germany last year are believed to be 20 or younger, meaning the country could need up to 25,000 new teachers while migrant children are denied places because schools are already full… Germany had been expecting the number of schoolchildren to decline as the number of Germans having children continues to drop.
And that’s just the education bill! No wonder they’re planning for a disaster.
Germans are a unique people. Just when things get good, they do something so unbelievably stupid that it leads to the destruction of their nation. Rebuild, destroy, repeat. Rebuild, destroy, repeat.

Gay People Not ‘Born That Way, ‘ Sexual Orientation Not Fixed — US Study
Study cautioned against drastic medical treatment for transgender children
A cross-discipline study has challenged the belief that human sexuality and gender identity are determined by biology and remain fixed, saying that there is no scientific proof of this. The study cautioned against drastic medical treatment for transgender children.
The notion that sexual orientation is predetermined by biology is an important part of the current LGBT discourse. If a person has no choice over whether to be gay or not, society cannot demand that he or she be straight, so the argument goes.
But regardless of its political worth, the “born this way” paradigm is not backed up by sufficient scientific data, according to a new paper published in the autumn issue of the New Atlantis, a journal focusing on political, societal and ethical ramifications of technological advances.
The study does not claim that being gay is a choice, merely that stating the opposite may be wrong.
The 144-page paper was written by Dr. Lawrence S. Mayer, an epidemiologist and biostatistician also trained in psychiatry, who is currently a scholar in residence at the Department of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and Dr. Paul R. McHugh, a renowned psychiatrist, researcher, and educator and former chief of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins Hospital. The paper’s three parts focus on sexual orientation, links between sexuality and mental health, and gender identity.

University to Students: You’re a Criminal if You Don’t Use Transgender Approved Language

That policy means if a biological man — for example, famous transgender athlete Bruce Jenner — says he “identifies” his gender as female, then all other students must refer to the man as a “she,” or else be treated as a law-breaker.

Gotta love the French, teach everyone how to run and hide.
How’s about team take down drills, or Rugby for all males starting at 12.
RE similarities between the killing by the “Frenchman” in Australia, and the earlier murder of the Polish woman in Reutlingen – exactly what I was thinking… wonder if the Aussie media will also try to claim that this was a “crime of passion”, meaning less talk of Jihad, and also possibly a reduced sentence for the perp?
“Crime passionelle” used to be a partial excuse in France. Hope it isn’t any more; people are not possessions.
I think it still is in a lot of places – eg if a husband flies into a rage and bludgeons his wife to death, he may get a lesser sentence than someone doing the same to a passer-by. I remember once watching a film about it… Never fully understood why it’s like this, although possibly something to do with him flying into a rage, which he may never do to someone else, and not expecting that his blows would kill her.
Nonetheless, surely in no way is an incidental woman who was being pestered and harassed comparable to a husband-wife situation?
Besides, if released, he could surely do the same to any other woman – and so should, if anything, be locked up for longer?
Crime of passion is
“Irrestible
impulse”
Also known as temporary insanity.
It doesn’t mean beating the wife to death because he came home drunk and grouchy and his favorite dinner wasn’t in the table.
In the case of the 2 woman killed by a Muslim crime of passion means the Muslim made an approach to the women she rejected him and he killed her in righteous rage.
Muslim custom and law decrees that if a woman is out of doors, even in her yard she is not “under the guardianship of a male relative”
If there is no male relative in sight she can be raped or kidnapped by any horny Beast who sees her.
Both murderers will be exonerated for reasons of cultural differences.
“He had no idea it’s against the law to stab a woman under German or Australian law”
Yes, GoV, you are right about the Australian jihadist murder! I wish the Australian police had half your brains. They are still banging on about his mental state and the possibility he was on ice! Rue the day that any Islamic “motivation” is be discovered!
Dreadful for the victim, dreadful for the witnesses, dreadful for the families affected by this senseless murder!
What I particularly noticed in the report is that he never stopped yelling God is Greater whilst stabbing the poor girl, the rescuers (and presumably the dog) and he was still at it whilst being frog marched to the paddy wagon where, we are informed, it took 7 cops and a can of capsicum spray to get him into it and then out again into a padded cell! Why bother, I say, just drop him off at Ayers Rock and leave him to find his way home!
Well the Oz police (and all western leaders, church elders, police, politicians and other trash) are desperately slow learners; and when they finally wake up, if they ever do, our countries will awaken every morning to the muezzin’s insane yodelling.
It’s not ‘God is greater’ at all. They are referring to their own false deity figure when they shout out the ‘takbir’.
Allah Akbar actually means the Muslim God is the only God and greater than all the infidel Gods that are not God at all but pagan idols worshipped by primitives
I heard the Queensland Police say that religion was not a motive regarding the Allahahu Akbar murder in Queensland…… Where can we get smarter police???
I have yet to see any reports on attacks by fanatical seventh day Adventists, Buddhists, Hindus, Catholics, Presbyterians, Mormons, Protestants, Jewish, Jehovah Witnesses, Lutherans,
Or any other major religious group for that matter, on any innocent people in the western world recently!
Perhaps it is just me but the Aussie police do seem to missing the obvious in this case!
My heart and prayers go out to the family and friends of this beautiful woman cut down in such a vicious fashion when she had her whole life in front of her.
Is there any door in sight to get us out of this Hell? Just wondering.
I still think a few well-placed bombs in the mid-east would cure a lot of these ills. Call me a war-monger if you like, but enough is enough! Muslims belong in Mulim lands, not in Europe. Not in America. Not anywhere in the west, unless they are willing to adopt western ways — I don’t care about their religion, I care about their damn behavior and so far it is not civilized. I am sure Mohammed is burning in hell, btw.
Burning in hell with 72 virgin goats.

Re: Australian incident
I have heard that in the Middle East when a woman looks a man in the eyes it is an open invitation to amorous frolicking of the most pleasurable sort.
I wonder if this tragic young lady made the mistake of prolonging eye contact with her murderer for an unfortunate extra instant. After trying to force himself on her he probably rationalized her murder with, “If I can’t have you, NO one can!”
Additionally, why are they wasting any time with imprisonment and a trial? The facts are clear, there are an abundance of witnesses, and this sort of rabid dog behavior is beyond rehabilitation. If Fremantle Prison were still open this matter could be swiftly and neatly resolved.
