The European Parliament has lifted the immunity of Marine Le Pen due to images she tweeted of Islamic State atrocities back in 2015. Ms. Le Pen, the leader of the Front National and the front-runner in the French presidential election, may face prosecution for her publication of those images.
Meanwhile, police raided the home of François Fillon, the French presidential candidate for the Conservatives. Mr. Fillon is under investigation for possible corruption and nepotism. There are rumors that he will be replaced as candidate by former Prime Minister Alain Juppé.
In other news, an American war correspondent named Tim Pool said he was escorted by police out of Rinkeby — a culturally enriched suburb of Stockholm — because the area was unsafe. Mr. Pool was visiting Rinkeby as part of his investigation of migrant violence in Europe. Swedish police officials dispute his account of events.

Poverty in Greece Gone Up 40% Since 2008
The poverty in Greece increased by 40% from 2008 to 2015, according to a Cologne Institute of Economic Research study on European economy.
The study is not based on low income alone but on other factors as well, such as the deprivation of material goods, low quality education, underemployment and limited access to healthcare.
All the above factors are used in a new “multidimensional poverty index” according to which the Institute has conducted the survey for the years 2008-2015.

An Anti-Trump Incantation: What’s in a Magic Spell?
In Shakespeare’s “Macbeth,” the titular character must contend with a trio of witches who predict his ascent and then his downfall.
Donald Trump may want to read up. The 45th president has a new foe: America’s witches, Wiccans, magicians and other mystics. A loosely formed group calling itself the Magical Resistance has emerged on Facebook and Twitter, where members shared photos of their “binding spell” setups in a mass demonstration of magic on Friday night (Feb. 24).
The social media angle is new, but binding spells are very, very old.

Bernie Sanders Could be Forming a Third Party
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders Could be Forming a 3rd Party — Democratic Party is RUINED
After a stunning loss in 2016, Democrats have spent much of 2017 arguing over who is to blame for the fiasco (refusing to accept that they themselves screwed up) and trying to figure out how to move the party forward.
One of the issues that scares many Democrats is a movement to get Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders to form his own third party, The Washington Times reported.
Sanders, a self-described independent socialist who ran a surprisingly strong race for the Democrat presidential nomination, has millions of followers, many of whom hate the Democrat Party and see it as grossly corrupt. Should he break away from the party, many of them likely would follow him.

College Expels Disabled Male Student Who Says He Was Raped by Woman, Fires Dad for Complaining
Drake University in Iowa has fired a trustee board member after expelling his disabled son, who alleged he was the victim of a rape by a female student.
According to a federal lawsuit, Tom Rossley, who had been on Drake’s board for 23 years, accused the college of failing to accommodate his son’s “ADHD, anxiety, and language-based learning disabilities” in the university’s sexual-assault investigation.
Drake dismissed allegations raised by the son, who claimed that a female student who had accused him of rape actually initiated the sex while he was incapacitated, the College Fix reports.

GOP Wants to Eliminate Shadowy DOJ Slush Fund Bankrolling Leftist Groups
Judicial Watch’s Tom Fitton told Fox News. “It’s a shakedown. It’s corrupt, pure and simple.”
The Obama administration funneled billions of dollars to activist organizations through a Department of Justice slush fund scheme, according to congressional investigators.
“It’s clear partisan politics played a role in the illicit actions that were made,” Rep. John Ratcliffe, R-Texas, told Fox News. “The DOJ is the last place this should have occurred.”
Findings spearheaded by the House Judiciary Committee point to a process shrouded in secrecy whereby monies were distributed to a labyrinth of nonprofit organizations involved with grass-roots activism.
“Advocates for big government and progressive power are using the Justice Department to extort money from corporations,” Judicial Watch’s Tom Fitton told Fox News. “It’s a shakedown. It’s corrupt, pure and simple.”

Last Night Marked the End of the Democratic Party.

Notice how Paul Ryan and half of congress didn’t applaud Trump for killing the TPP? Keep draining that swamp Donald!
The optics could not have been starker — President Donald Trump stood before America with an overarching message of unity. Meanwhile, Democrats sat firmly planted in their chamber chairs, still seething from their electoral pummeling.
As Trump delivered promises of soaring optimism, Democrats almost appeared disappointed — for their aims of regaining electoral control sunk as hopes for America’s future lifted.

Sessions Announces Recusal From Russia-Related Probes, Denies Misleading Congress
Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced Thursday he will recuse himself from “any existing or future investigations” regarding the 2016 presidential campaign, while pushing back forcefully on allegations he misled Congress in past statements about contacts with Russia.
The attorney general held a press conference as he sought to calm the political firestorm over revelations he spoke twice with Russia’s ambassador last year despite telling senators during his confirmation hearing he had no “communications” with Moscow.
Sessions defended his answer as “honest and correct,” suggesting he was referring only to discussions about the campaign.
“I never had meetings with Russian operatives or Russian intermediaries about the Trump campaign,” he said.

Hisham Saadi, 47, has been charged with carrying out a hoax regarding terrorist activity, uttering threats and mischief in connection with the Concordia University bomb threat Wednesday.
Saadi appeared in a Montreal courtroom via video link on Thursday afternoon.
He has been ordered to undergo a psychological assessment prior to his bail hearing, scheduled for Friday.

Authorities Detain Suspect in Brussels Who Drove Car With Canisters
The man detained in Brussels on Thursday driving a car filled with gas canisters had been convicted in a 2016 terror trial, state broadcaster RTBF reported.
The man, who has not been identified, was convicted during a mass trial of suspects involved in the “Zerkani” terror recruiting network, according to RTBF. Some of those involved in the network had participated in the March 2016 Brussels attacks and the November 2015 Paris attacks.
The detention on Thursday set off a security alert in the center of Brussels, closing off a busy part of the capital and a subway station during the evening rush hour, the prosecutor’s office said.

Belgium: Nightly Curfew in Molenbeek District
The Mayor of Molenbeek, Françoise Schepmans, is introducing a nightly curfew in the area around the Beekkant metro station. Under the ban gatherings of more than three people between the hours of 9PM and 5AM are banned. The measure that takes effect in the middle of the month is intended to stop youngsters who are causing trouble hanging around in the neighbourhood.
The mayor is introducing the curfew following talks with police, the Brussels transport company and the local housing company. The move comes after local residents complained about growing verbal and physical aggression and drug dealing. The local housing company has agreed to improve lighting, install CCTV and hire more staff to keep the area tidy.
The curfew is being introduced for three months. People flouting the ban risk a fine of up to 350 euros.

Catalans Prepare Vote for Independence From Spain
Catalonia is organizing the logistics for a referendum on independence from Spain it plans to hold by the end of September, even if it goes against the wishes of the national government, the Catalan government’s foreign policy chief said.
“We are now preparing the referendum because … either in an agreed way or not, we need to be ready,” Raul Romeva said on Thursday at the Catalan regional government’s representative office in London.
The wealthy northeastern region, which has its own language and culture, is home to a strong separatist movement, which has been intensified by high unemployment and austerity cuts in Spain. But attempts to hold a Scottish-style referendum on independence have been blocked in the courts by Madrid.

EU Parliament Strips Le Pen of Immunity Over ‘Shameful’ ISIS Tweets
The European Parliament on Thursday lifted French far-right leader Marine Le Pen’s immunity from prosecution over her tweeting of images of Islamic State atrocities.
Lawmakers voted by a “big majority” to deprive Le Pen of her immunity in the case, launched by French prosecutors in 2015, acting parliament speaker Dimitrios Papadimoulis said.
French prosecutors opened an investigation in December 2015 into the graphic series of tweets by National Front leader Le Pen, which included a photo of the decapitated body of US reporter James Foley.
On Tuesday the legal committee of the European Parliament backed a request by the prosecutors for Le Pen’s immunity as a member of the EU’s only elected assembly to be lifted, officials told AFP.
“This only shows French citizens what the EU is, what the European Parliament is and that it’s all part of the system that wants to stop the French people’s candidate that I am,” the anti-EU candidate said in response to the move.

European Union lawmakers overwhelmingly voted on Tuesday to lift the EU parliamentary immunity of French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen for tweeting violent images of the Islamic State (IS) group.
The offence being considered is “publishing violent images,” which under certain circumstances can carry a penalty of three years in prison and a fine of 75,000 euros ($79,650).

European Parliament Votes to Censor Politically Incorrect Speech
Worried by the rise of nationalist parties that threaten the very existence of the European Union (EU), the European Parliament (EP) has quietly amended its internal rules to enable the silencing of “racist” speech within its hallowed halls.
The rule change, which passed in December, allows the president of the EP to “interrupt the live broadcasting of” a parliamentary debate “in the case of defamatory, racist or xenophobic language or behavior by a member.” Furthermore, it gives the president the power to “delete” said incident “from the audiovisual record of the proceedings,” consigning it to the memory hole unless a journalist happens to be present to report on it. Offenders may be fined up to $9,500.
Conveniently, the rule doesn’t define what constitutes “defamatory, racist or xenophobic language or behavior,” leaving it to the president’s discretion, although the EP Bureau, which consists of the president and 14 vice presidents, must review the decision within four weeks.

Germany: Bag Ban at Cologne Cathedral Leaves Visitors Seething

On Wednesday Cologne Cathedral brought in stricter security rules for visitors, meaning that no one is allowed to enter the church’s huge interior with a suitcase, a travel bag or a rucksack.
The measures have been justified as a response to a heightened terror threat in Germany.

Italy: Tiziano Renzi Has ‘Nothing to Hide’ Over Consip
‘Never had secret dinners’ says ex-premier’s father
(ANSA) — Rome, March 2 — Tiziano Renzi, the father of ex-premier Matteo Renzi, said Thursday that he has nothing to hide and was ready to be questioned by investigators in relation to a probe into alleged corruption at civil-service procurement agency CONSIP.
As judicial sources said he would be questioned on Friday, Tiziano Renzi, who is under investigation in the probe, said: “I never asked for money. I never took money. Never. “And I think that the magistrates have all the instruments to verify this. I can’t wait for the truth to come out. I want to be questioned. I want them to verify everything about me. I have nothing to hide. Nothing”. He added: “I never had secret meetings in grubby diners,” as reported in the press. Renzi said “I feel like I’m living in a nightmare” and said “when it ends I hope it gets the very same prominence in the media”.
L’Espresso magazine says in its issue to be published Sunday that Renzi and former Berlusconi aide Denis Verdini “exerted pressure” on CONSIP CEO Luigi Marroni, who reported this to police. According to papers released Wednesday, Tiziano Renzi and pharmaceuticals businessman Carlo Russo “got promises of money” as monthly payments from Alfredo Romeo, the high-profile Campanian businessman arrested in the CONSIP probe.
The payments were allegedly for exerting influence over Marroni, an acquaintance of the elder Renzi’s, the papers said.
Romeo was arrested and taken to jail early on Wednesday over the alleged corruption linked to CONSIP.
Judicial sources said Thursday he will be questioned on Monday.
Romeo has “a network of institutional connections at a very high level” which he uses “in an unscrupulous way to steer the actions of the civil service to his advantage,” a judge said in the arrest warrant.
Investigators also seized assets worth around 100,000 euros from a CONSIP official, Marco Gasparri, money that allegedly stems from bribes from Romeo, sources said. Carabinieri and finance police also conducted a series searches related to Italo Bocchino, a former lawmaker for the now-defunct centre-right People of Freedom Party (PdL).
As well as Tiziano Renzi, Sports Minister Luca Lotti is under investigation in the probe too.
Lotti, seen as Matteo Renzi’s right-hand man, said Wednesday he was “extremely relaxed” regarding the probe.
All those involved have denied wrongdoing.

Italy: Verdini Gets 9 Years in CCF Bank Case
Former Berlusconi aide involved in Florentine bank bankruptcy
(ANSA) — Florence, March 2 — Former Berlusconi aide Denis Verdini was sentenced Thursday to nine years in jail for his part in the bankruptcy of the Credito Cooperativo Fiorentino (CCF) bank. The sentence also carried a life ban from holding public office.
Verdini’s lawyers said he would appeal.
“We are ready to fight,” they said.
Prosecutors had asked 11 years for Verdini, who now leads an independent centre-right group, ALA, which backs the Democratic Party-led centre-left-centre-right government. ALA said the verdict was “the umpteenth political sentence seen in recent years”.
The premier’s office was awarded a provisional 2.5 million euros in damages in the case.
Verdini has also been named, but is not under investigation, in a new probe into graft at the civil service procurement agency CONSIP.

Pakistan: Muslims Hail UK Jihad Murderer of “Blasphemer” As Hero
When Tanveer Ahmed was sentenced to a minimum of 27 years in jail for murder last August, Judge Lady Rae said he had committed a “brutal, barbaric and horrific crime”.
Ahmed stabbed to death Glasgow shopkeeper Asad Shah — who belonged to the persecuted Ahmadi sect — because he believed he was committing blasphemy by uploading online videos in which he claimed to be a prophet.
But in Pakistan, Ahmed is developing a growing number of supporters who see him as a “defender of Islam” for having killed someone they believed to be disrespecting the Prophet Muhammad.
On Monday evening, about 400 gathered outside his family’s home in the city of Mirpur, in Pakistan-administered Kashmir for a rally in his honour. The crowd chanted slogans praising Ahmed as “brave” and “courageous”.

Bloody Islamic State Video Puts China in Cross Hairs
Islamic State militants from China’s Uygur ethnic minority have vowed to return home and “shed blood like rivers”, according to a jihadi-tracking firm, in what observers said marked the first IS threat against Chinese targets.
The threat came in a half-hour video released on Monday by a division of Islamic State in western Iraq, and featuring militants from China’s Uygur ethnic group, said the US-based SITE Intelligence Group, which analysed the footage.
China has for years blamed exiled Uygur “separatists” for a series of violent attacks in its western Xinjiang region — the Uygur homeland — and warned of the potential for militants to link up with global jihadist groups.

Poly Technologies showed off The Silent Hunter, one of the world’s most powerful laser weapons. It claims an output of at least 50-70 kilowatts, which would make it more powerful than the 33-kilowatt laser weapon systems (LaWS) currently deployed on the USS Ponce. The laser is probably based on a smaller anti-drone laser, the Low Altitude Guard. That’s enough to knock out automobiles by burning out their engines from over a mile away, as the 30-kilowatt Lockheed Martin ATHENA laser demonstrated in 2015. The Silent Hunter uses fibre optic lasers (fibre optics doped with rare earth minerals), which provide weight savings over chemical lasers through increasing optical gain by kilometers of coiled fibre optics (as opposed to bulky chemical lasers). The Silent Hunter is likely to be scaled up and equipped with radars to complement its optical/infrared tracking system, making it a capable close range defense system against enemy missiles, artillery, drones and aircraft.
The Silent Hunter laser is powerful enough to cut through light vehicle armor at up to a kilometer away, making you wonder if China already has more powerful laser weapons only for domestic use.

We Found a Hidden Backdoor in Chinese Internet of Things Devices — Researchers
IoT devices from a Chinese vendor contain a hidden backdoor that the vendor is refusing to fix, according to security researchers.
The backdoor was discovered in almost all devices produced by VoIP specialist dbltek, and appears to have been purposefully built in for use by the vendor, according to security firm TrustWave. The firm says that it followed a responsible disclosure process, but claims the vendor responded only with modifications that leave the backdoor open.
Trustwave claims the vendor then cut off contact with it. The security firm says it has since been able to write exploits that open both the old and new backdoors.
The vulnerable firmware is present in almost all dbltek GSM-to-VoIP devices, a range of equipment mostly used by small to medium size businesses, it claims. Trustwave researchers claimed they had found hundreds of vulnerable devices on the internet.
[Comment: Hype of IoT is used to fool public into building their own hyper-serveillance state — a virtual panopticon prison where people can be monitored, tracked, watched, listened through a network of IoT. Such backdoors are not a “problem”, but a feature of a growing surveillance state.]

Are Australian Gun Grabbers the Worst Mass Murderers in the Country’s History?
The Australian Constitution requires that the Commonwealth pay ‘Just compensation’ when crushing the rights of its citizens. So they paid $500,000,000.00 to shooters for the weapons handed in.
That is half a billion dollars.
The Government increased the Medicare levy to finance the buyback program.
So what did snatching away shooters rights and wasting half a billion dollars achieve for the sun soaked nation? Well, nothing really.
It has terrorism with guns. It has significant offending with illegal guns and experts claiming that the tyrannical gun grab has had zero meaningful effect on reducing gun crime.
BUT… This is not a zero sum game.
If that health money had been spent on health — Crazy I know but come with me here — how many lives would that have saved?

FBI’s Comey: Mexican Drug Cartels Fueling US Heroin Epidemic
Mexican drug cartels are fueling the heroin epidemic that is sweeping the United States, according to the director of the FBI.
Addressing an audience of local residents and public safety officials at an opioid summit in suburban Virginia on Wednesday, James Comey said cartels are continuing to saturate the country with waves of “highly, highly pure” heroin.
The FBI chief, speaking alongside Drug Enforcement Administration acting administrator Chuck Rosenberg, painted the picture of a nationwide drug crisis that’s penetrating communities of all shapes and sizes.

Denmark: Protesters Block Roskilde Airport to Stop Afghan Deportation
Around 50 pro-refugee activists have blocked the entrance at Denmark’s Roskilde Airport to prevent the expulsion of ten rejected Afghan asylum seekers.
The group Refugees Welcome to Denmark said it aimed to employ the passive resistance techniques made famous by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi to prevent the refugees boarding the plane chartered by the Danish government to take them to Kabul.
“We will do everything in our power to ensure that they can not get into the airport. We are determined to sit and passively resist,” Søren Warburg, the group’s spokesman, told Politiken newspaper. “We are not going to move aside even when ordered to.”

Eight Iraqis Convicted in New Year’s Gang Rape in Austria
Eight Iraqi nationals are set to spend up to 13 years in prison after a court in Austria Thursday convicted them of gang-raping a German tourist in the early hours of New Year’s Day more than a year ago.
The Iraqis, aged between 22 and 48, arrived in Austria as migrants between May and December 2015. Five received refugee status.
The court awarded the victim — a 28-year old woman — more than $26,000 in damages, and dismissed charges against a ninth suspect. Both sides appealed the ruling, according to a court statement.

Europe’s Pro-Trump Outpost: Populist Hungary Buoyed by US Shift on Refugees, Russia
While countless European politicians have grumbled at the change in tone under the Trump White House, particularly on the Syrian refugee crisis, at least one populist leader across the Atlantic sees his government’s policies being vindicated and bolstered by the new American president.
In the central European nation of Hungary, situated on a key route for refugees fleeing the Middle East for Europe, the government in 2015 raised a barbed-wire border fence and has taken a hard-line stance ever since — going so far as to deploy troops to the Serbian border to intercept migrants. Populist Prime Minister Viktor Orbán last month said he would, instead, accept European “true refugees” who have “lost” their homelands.

Germany Arrests 2 Syrian Extremist Suspects
German authorities have arrested two Syrians suspected of being members of the extremist Nusra Front, one of whom allegedly was involved in the slaying of dozens of civilians.
The federal prosecutor’s office said Thursday that 35-year-old Abdalfatah H.A. is suspected of war crimes over the killing of 36 Syrian government employees by his unit in March 2013. The statement says he carried out “so-called Shariah death sentences.”
A spokeswoman for the prosecutors’ office, Frauke Koehler, declined to confirm German media reports that the man came to Germany as an asylum-seeker.
The other suspect, 26-year-old Abdulrahman A.A., belonged to the same combat unit as Abdalfatah H.A. and both participated in an armed battle against Syrian government troops, including taking over a big arms depot near Mahin in November 2013.

One in Six Norwegians Has Immigrant Background
One out of six Norwegians has an immigrant background, new data from Statistics Norway showed on Thursday, while also noting that the Nordic country in 2016 received the lowest percentage increase of immigrants in 15 years.
Last year, a total of 26,400 people immigrated to Norway, representing an annual rise of 3.8 percent — the lowest percentage increase since 2002. In all, the nation of just over five million now has 884,000 inhabitants with immigrant background.
Statistics Norway, which defines people with immigrant background as either having immigrated to the country themselves or to have been born in Norway to immigrant parents, said that although the biggest growth is now seen among Syrians, people with Polish origins remain the largest group with immigrant background, totaling 97,200 people.

7 Incredibly Shocking Quotes From Planned Parenthood Founder Margaret Sanger
Today, the spirit of Sanger lives on. According to the Guttmacher Institute, the former pro-abortion research division of Planned Parenthood, African-American women are five times more likely to choose abortion over white women. Planned Parenthood clinics are strategically planted in minority communities, targeting blacks and impoverished minority groups, and abortion remains the leading cause of death for the black community.
Below is a compilation of seven shocking quotes from Sanger, a famed eugenicist who birthed America’s largest abortion-on-demand corporation.
1) “We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population.”
In a letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble in December, 19, 1939, Sanger exposited her vision for the “Negro Project,” a freshly launched collaboration between the American Birth Control League and Sanger’s Birth Control Clinical Research Bureau. The letter echoes the eugenic ideologies still visible within the corporate vein of Planned Parenthood today.

Target Teetering on the Brink of Financial Collapse
The boycott against Target over its bathroom policy is costing the retailer more than anybody expected, as a record share price plunge and weak sales drive the big-box retailer to the brink of financial collapse.
In April last year after Target announced that it would welcome transgender customers to use any bathroom or fitting room that matched their gender identity.
Since then a determined grassroots boycott campaign has dug its heels in, and the company is having trouble hiding the financial damage.
Target’s already disappointing stock price plunged a further 13 percent in early trading on Tuesday, putting the embattled retailer on pace for its worst day in almost twenty years and dragging the company dangerously close to the financial abyss.
Target also reported sales and earnings that missed Wall Street’s expectations, in what was a devastating holiday quarter for the big-box retailer.
Target’s dismal outlook for fiscal 2017 has industry experts warning if results don’t turn around — and soon — the company will go to the wall.

EU Threatens Nations Not Resettling Migrants From Italy and Greece Fast Enough…
This is the kind of news that resonates well with the Czech population. The common response is “Out of the EU now!” 🙂
PS: The Czechs joined the EU because it was full of Germans, French, British, Italians etc… We didn’t join to be culturally enriched by Afghanistan or Pakistan or Iraq…
” Paul Wilders explains how his brother became an Islamophobe and how he lives — in hiding, with security and under constant fear of death threats.”
It’s one of the odd things about genetics, that you can end up with brothers and sisters in which you share little in common, apart from family.
Geert and Paul obviously don’t agree about much, Christmas dinner must be a tense affair. Paul explains how Geert became an Islamophobe and how he lives- in hiding, with security and under constant fear of death threats. Now that is true, but an Islamophope is described as someone with an irrational fear of muslims. Paul has just acknowledged the threats and danger is real. Geert’s fear of Islam, is justified, the threat is real. Does Paul really believe if Geert had kept his mouth shut, the muslims living in Holland would have presented no danger, no threat to anyone?
Incisive analysis there Baucent that exposes the kind of thinking that has brought us all to this point in our Western civilization and what we are up against when trying to counter that kind of mindset.
In the past he (Paul) would have been eaten, while “saber-tooth tiger”-phobic brother survives.
The commies of the EU will never allow LePen to become French president.
Their vile New World Order is at stake.
Parliamentary immunity is the cornerstone of fearless and exact deliberation on matters affecting the welfare of the nation.
Until it’s a nuisance to the Treason Class. Whereupon it can be selectively and arbitrarily revoked.
So the news, social media, etc. are full of graphic pictures and videos from daesh and nobody gives a f, but when it comes to Marine Le Pen, it’s suddenly a problem – talk about double standards.
Either the European Parliament is trying to get Marine Le Pen elected by their actions, or they are such a collection of fools that they do not realize how their actions will be perceived by her supporters and those on the fence for her. Thankfully, their days are numbered!
I hope she got elected! 🙂
Thus enabling her to be retrospectively prosecuted.
Here is an alternative suggestion. Can the EU lift it’s ridiculous law prohibiting the death sentence option imposed on its member states, enabling retrospective
Retrials and executions of all convicted provacateurs currently languishing (and no doubt radicalising others) at great expense through out the prisons of Europe?
Chimps get along without words, just grunts, shrugs, gestures, bludgeoning and face-biting. Humans should too, as syllables formed into words could then be crafted into complete thoughts which are the mechanism of hate speech. I mean, what’s wrong with discarding a half-million years of evolution if we can live without hate.
Don’t believe me? Then show me an illiterate mute who can tell me he’s unhappy. [ Just as long as he doesn’t bite my face off. ]
Your analysis doesn’t mention that those chimps will murder and then eat those chimps they deem to be a threat.
Too, evolution is still a theory that shall remain a theory because there just is no convincing evidence for it.
And as far as that illiterate mute goes – have you had no dealings at all with Muslim ‘refugees’ who speak no English?
I have to take issue with your comment regarding lack of evidence for evolution. There is a wealth of evidence. Mostly in organisms with short life cycles as evolution is played on a generational stage. Fruit flies, bacteria, insects, small mammals, evidence, hard evidence exists. A closed mind achieves nothing.
Yes, evolution is a theory, and to any observant person, a proven one.
Religion on the other hand requires no thought; it is just blind faith.
You believe what you’re told.
I actually feel like I’m back in time to the “Cabaret” of the Weimar Republic. People try to live out their lives in spite of the gathering storm, and adapt too well by trusting their government. The fascists are becoming stronger, and engage in lawless violence, covertly supported by a government revolutionary in all but name.
The good that can come of this is that sides are drawn: it becomes increasingly difficult to hide the fascist, totalitarian nature of the West European governments, including England, and of the EU. The US once again is the shining light of liberty and freedom, although deeply remiss in its interference in the affairs of other countries.
If the US became genuinely isolationist, it would achieve the goals and the example its founders intended:
“Tomorrow Belongs to Me”, anyone?
It really is time to start suing our governments for genocide.
We can start the process as litigants in person in our own courts if we want or in the USA.
Tony Shell writes it brilliantly here. I suggest readers download his articles.
The ruling elites are attempting to conceal evidence of the ongoing genocide and that is why have to remove Marines immunity from prosecution for merely stating the truth.

** As bodies continue to wash up on the shores of Spanish beaches, immigration policy is being reconsidered **
It’s clear. Safer transportation to the Spanish mainland must be provided to invading “migrants.”
What other alternatives are there? None exist! The Spanish will must bend to that of the primitive.
Don’t forget that if they bury those bodies, and the remains were Muslims in life, that place where they’re buried becomes, under Sharia law, Islamic property. I hope they were cremated.
Re “bringing back the draft in Sweden…” Fine, as long as long as the draftees are ethnic Swedes; but in present day ‘multicultural’ Sweden, moslems would apply–and be accepted. However, that would not be the only military force in the world operating with a fifth-column of traitors in their midst.
The way things are in Sweden, they have far to go before seeing any light at the end of the tunnel they are in.
We need more people like Katie Hopkins, to get the message to the great unwashed.
I’ve read her reports Peter, she is a brave lady to take on that exposure.
I agree! But I also cogitate endlessly on what it is going to take to reach the tipping-point in western Europe, any ideas?
They seem to be spinning their wheels; on the one hand progress seems to be being made, but I have the feeling the le Pen, Wilders elections are not going to pan out as many obviously hope.
Years ago I predicted to a friend that Germany would be the first to reach the tipping point and rebel–they still could in theory, as no other country has done so, or looks like doing so. Oh I know, Brexit; but the Brits are-as I predicted-no closer, only endless wrangling. (And May was a remainer)
Yuck, here Ylva Johansson, the Employment and Integration Minister, one of the more heinous individuals of the Swedish power elite – a social democrat of course, is routine-lying.
