Culture Enrichers at Italian Resort Gang-Rape Polish Woman, Beat Up Husband

As many of our readers may have heard, over the weekend a young Polish woman was gang-raped and her husband beaten at the Adriatic resort of Rimini in Italy. The suspects the police are searching for are “dark-skinned” culture-enrichers, but in most media reports one would have to read far down in the news articles to discover that fact— if the swarthiness of the perpetrators were even mentioned at all.

Below are two Polish reports on what happened, and an Italian editorial about the incident. Many thanks to Ava Lon for both translations from the Polish.

The first is from the weekly Catholic newspaper Gość Niedzielny:

Police are looking for perpetrators of violent assault on Poles in Rimini

August 27, 2017

Italian police are looking for four perpetrators of a brutal attack on two Polish tourists on the beach in Rimini, where a 26-year-old woman was raped and her husband beaten. The Italian press on Sunday is calling the attack on the Poles “bestial” and “inhuman”.

As the newspapers underline, the first findings based on victims’ accounts show that the attackers were probably young foreigners. The attack occurred on the night between Friday and Saturday.

The daily Corriere della Sera writes that perpetrators may have originated in North Africa.

The police are confident that this is a very brutal group that, as all the evidence indicates, and which was under the influence of drugs and alcohol. It turned out that after the attack on the tourists from Poland the group also attacked a transsexual from Peru. They abandoned him, wounded, by the side of the road.

The daily La Repubblica reports that the organized group of Polish tourists, with which the young couple had arrived, left to return to Poland.

The beaten man was discharged from the hospital and will testify.

His wounded wife, who is in shock, is still in the hospital. According to the rules of conduct in rape cases, the woman will also receive psychological support.

The Italian media quotes Rimini police chief Maurizio Improty, who said of the attackers: “They were acting with inhuman violence.” “I hope they will meet a nightmare now,” he added.

Local police have set up a special group to deal with this case.

A representative of the city government visited the victims of the attack in the hospital and offered them all the support and assistance, according to the press agency Ansa.

The follow-up report is from the conservative Catholic site Fronda.pl. The translator includes this background:

Polish law allows the government to demand extradition of perpetrators who commit crimes against Polish citizens abroad. This is why Polish investigators have already arrived in Italy. The Polish government (and public) want to judge and incarcerate them in Poland. They would face NO LESS than five years.

The translated article:

Husband of raped Polish woman: They were like beasts

August 28, 2017

The 26-year-old Polish woman attacked on a beach in Rimini was probably raped by drug-traffickers. As the Italian police say, investigations into this matter will be very difficult, because although the officers have surveillance recordings and fingerprints of perpetrators, they will have to look for them in the complex environment of immigrant criminals operating among thousands of tourists along the coastline of the Adriatic Sea.

After a while the woman’s husband, badly beaten himself, testified about the brutal rape. The man said that the two perpetrators had an “olive” complexion, the other two slightly lighter. They were speaking in broken English.

“I tried to understand what they wanted. When I realized what was going on, it was too late. I got hit in the face with a bottle,” said the Polish woman’s husband in a media interview.

“There were four of them, and they were like beasts. They beat me on the head until I lost consciousness,” he added.

[Polish] Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro expressed the hope that the perpetrators will be severely punished after this incident; Polish investigators have already been sent to Italy.

[Polish] Deputy Minister Patryk Jaki commented on this in even harsher terms, stating that perpetrators should be subjected to the death penalty and torture. In an emotional entry on Twitter he wrote:

“For #rimini there should be the death penalty for these bastards. Although for this particular case I would also bring back torture.”

For an Italian perspective, here is an editorial from Il Giornale. Many thanks to FouseSquawk for the translation:

AfD Member Encounters a “Refugees Welcome” Activist in Münster

Here Comes the Sun

Note: This post was a “sticky” feature for Fundraising Week, and was at the top throughout that time. Newer items from Monday through Sunday, including Sunday night’s news feed, are posted below it.

Summer Fundraiser 2017, Day Seven

Update from Dymphna: And Then They Rested — Day Seven

Each fundraiser has its own rhythm and rhyme. This one took a while to get going but then the jokes (and donations) started coming in at a good clip. The donations are crucial to our ongoing project here, but I now realize that laughter is indeed good medicine. I’ve even gone looking for jokes this week, just for the fun of it. From now on the theme of our Quarterlies will be jokes. More than ever do we need laughter to keep going.

Tip jarThe Baron keeps a careful log/graph of donations through each and every quarter going all the way back to the first Fundraiser in 2008. There was one year — I forget which — where we simply missed a quarter entirely. We simply forgot to ask for money, and yes, that inattention on our part did indeed pinch; the consequence was a period of beans but no ammo. We didn’t make that mistake again.

Sometimes events push these fundraisers early or late: who wants to compete with a presidential election or Christmas The Winter Gala Season?? But mostly we’re on time if a little breathless. Even then, y’all inevitably come through, for which we remain most grateful. When you’re depending on the largesse of donors, nothing ever becomes routine or taken for granted.

For those of you who’ve been procrastinating, there’s the tip cup on the sidebar to the left of my words. And for our readers who not only subscribe but give extra during the Fundraisers, you are atop the pyramid for sure, up there with those genius DNA folks.

Now for my joke, especially for the Baron and serendipitously sent in by Col. Bunny. [I was considering doing one on virgins, given the Aztec image the Baron chose for this post. Maybe next time.]

A fellow consults his rabbi.

“Rabbi,” he says, “my cow is useless. She won’t show any interest in the bull.”

“Give me an example,” says the rabbi.

“Well, if the bull approaches her, she moves away to the left. And if he approaches her again, she moves away to the right. This goes on forever.”

“Hmm,” says the rabbi. “Is your cow from Minsk, by any chance?”

“Why, yes,” says the farmer. “How did you know?”

“My wife is from Minsk,” says the rabbi.

Heh. That’s my Bleg gift to the Baron. Better than a bag of cashews; jokes don’t cause weight gain.

Thanks to all you generous readers, including the ones who are bypassing PayPal to send their donations by snail mail. You have to go out of your way to do that… and, yes, you lurking IRS employee, the mail donations go down on our income, you gummint busybody.

The Islamic State has claimed responsibility for yesterday’s attack by a Somali mujahid on police in Belgium. The attacker lightly wounded the three officers with a knife before he was shot dead. In addition to the knife and a fake gun, he was carrying a Koran.

In other news, the “DVX” pine forest in Italy that was planted in honor of Benito Mussolini has been partially destroyed by a wildfire. The trees of the forest form the letters DVX, or “Dux”, meaning “leader” in Latin. They were planted in 1939 by forestry students to honor Il Duce.

Sibel Kekilli to German Muslims: “You Are Full of Hate and Jealousy”

The well-known actress Sibel Kekilli was raised in a Muslim home in Germany, but left Islam to free herself from its oppressive treatment of women. The following report by Egri Nök was originally published at Vlad Tepes in a slightly different form.

Sibel Kekilli: “You don’t accept other people, especially not women or people of other beliefs”

by Egri Nök

The popular German actress Sibel Kekilli (born in Germany in 1980 as the daughter of immigrants), known to an international audience as ‘Shae’ in Game of Thrones, has left Instagram over harassment mainly by Muslims.

Bild quotes her as saying:

This is the first and the last time that I will speak to the people who hate me, most of them are Turks, unfortunately.

I will no longer tolerate threats, insults and disgusting sex photos that you send me. You are full of hate and jealousy. You call yourselves Muslims, yet you don’t accept other people, especially not women or people of other beliefs. You are full of sh**… Honestly, I feel sorry for you. Stop following me. I will say goodbye for a little while.

Sibel’s own experience as growing up as a girl in a “relatively modern” Muslim family in Germany, not being allowed to go to college, or to partake in school field trips, led her to break away from her family and champion women’s’ rights.

She caused a “scandal” in 2006, when, in a speech in Berlin addressing domestic violence, she said:

I have experienced for myself that both physical and psychological abuse are regarded as normal in a Muslim family. Sadly, violence belongs to the culture of Islam.

Part of the audience booed her, one man interrupted her speech and yelled: “Islam has got nothing to do with violence. You humiliate our people!”, and the Turkish consul general got up and left in protest.

Antifas Riot in Quebec — And One Gets Unmasked

The videos below show what happened to anti-immigration demonstrators that was held last week in Quebec City. Antifa counter-demonstrators showed up (surprise!) and did what Antifas do best.

Many thanks to Vlad Tepes for all the subtitling, and to Sassy for translating the first video, which shows the hassles the demonstrators had to go through even before they began their march:

The second video shows what happened when the demonstrators encountered “anti-fascist” counter-demonstrators. Notice that the Antifas’ projectile of choice seems to be chairs, just like in the asylum centers of Europe.

Many thanks to Ava Lon for the translation:

Vlad took a brief excerpt from the above video, enlarged it, and enhanced it so you can clearly see an Antifa goon’s face after a woman unmasks him:

Related: After the demo in Berkeley that featured “Moldilocks”, a group of alt-right guys successfully ID’d and doxed a Berkeley professor using sophisticated facial-recognition software, based (I think) on a still from a video. The prof had masked his lower face like all the other Antifas, but the software was sensitive enough to find him based solely on his eyes.

A still from Vlad’s slo-mo should give you a clear enough shot of that Quebecois thug’s face. If you have access to the same sort of software, I recommend trying it out — you may be able to find his ugly mug somewhere on the web.

Police Hose African Migrants Out of a Square in Rome

As reported here last week, migrants who had been squatting in a building in Rome for five years (!) were finally evicted by police. They were offered other accommodations, but didn’t like them, so they set up camp in a public square. Then they mounted a protest. Then they rioted, throwing things at the cops and setting fire to garbage and/or their bedding.

Muzzled in Finland (Again)

How can the treatment of Antifa by police and government officials be the same everywhere? In the USA, in Canada, in The Netherlands, in Germany — and now Finland.

It’s as if all of this were being arranged and orchestrated the same mysterious trans-national organization…

Here’s the report by KGS at Tundra Tabloids:

Finnish (politicized) police allow counter protesters to harass anti-terror rally, arrest citizen journalist politician for filming Antifa

This is an outrage…

I reported yesterday that Junes Lokka was arrested for simply obeying previous police orders. It has now come to light (as I expected) that they came to arrest simply because they could. Using the thin gruel argument of “provocation”, they arrested the Oulu city councilman for simply filming Antifa activists chanting over-the-top slogans at participants of the (legal permit-holding) rally against terrorism. They themselves were not even engaging them vocally in any way, shape or form.

The anti-terrorism rally had a valid permit while the Antifa protesters just showed up and mounted a disruption event that they’re widely known for and allowed to get away with. Even the Finnish state broadcaster YLE reported that they were there without a permit:

The “protest against terrorism” was announced to the police in advance. On the other hand, no announcement was made by the counter-demonstration “Together against fascism and fundamentalism”.

The police however didn’t deem their (Antifa & supporters) over the top shouting and disruptions to be a “provocation” to the others at the rally, no, just the lone cameraman with his girlfriend holding a tablet on a tri-pod capturing on film their lunacy. The Finnish police have become an entirely politicized force and need to be de-programmed.

Before anyone takes to smearing me as “anti-cop”, I have been long on record as being pro-law enforcement; my brother-in-law has been a cop in Michigan for over 30 yrs, been even on patrol with him as an observer (we’re allowed to do that there with special permission). What transpired yesterday was a complete violation of Junes Lokka’s civil liberties, and I hope that he’s contacting a lawyer to file a complaint and a lawsuit against the Helsinki department for false arrest.

NOTE: I have some differing views and political disagreements with some in the close-the-borders, Finland First movement, but one thing I do agree with is their unalienable right to express their views, and to do so without any kind of (political) police chicanery. Allowing others to disrupt their events is highly political and a violation of their civil rights, and they do it time and time again.

Europe’s Cross

The following essay uses the Battle of Saint Gotthard or Nagyfalu (Hungarian) or Mogersdorf (German) on August 1, 1664 as a jumping-off point for a meditation on the modern-day Muslim invasion that Europe is deliberately inflicting on itself.

Europe’s cross, or, Islam vs. Christianity

August 12, 2017
by Zsolt Mórocz

The two generals immediately rode on horseback to Lajos Badeni, the commander of the Christian troops, who was found in bed. They told him they were coming! Badeni quickly looked the situation over. He came up with a tactically excellent plan. If they come, he says, we must go at them…

A fifteen-meter-high cross stretched to the sky on the hillside. How long? Who knows? Who can say when this aggressive emblem will violate someone’s targeted political sensitivity? For now it stands above Nagyfalu. From here, in 1664 a Frenchman and a German watched a mass of Mohammedans emerging from the haze.

It is unnecessary to imagine the moment because it has returned. Therefore, responsibility lies with the theorists of historical cycles, from Thucydides to Vicon to Spengler. Contrary to Soros’ NGOs, human smugglers, collaborative intellectuals, and the wishy-washy Western European leaders who degraded their own citizens into second-tier nationals and to also the perverse politicians of the Willkommenskultur [“Welcoming Culture”].

When I think of Muhammad’s supporters, I never see individuals, but masses. Not my predictive imagination playing tricks on me. In the photos, I see a huge crowd at the Coliseum, a thousand Muslims praying at Westminster. Videos shot at night show endless, endless migrating masses rolling along in the streets of small German villages. The ones who are responsible for these images, the ones that annoy with facts the still worried part of the old continent. The dinosaurs, who still find some meaning in Christianity and European culture. Those intolerant people who cannot understand how to live with multiculture and terrorism. The dishonest excluders. They are not even true Christians, as they do not want to volunteer their other cheeks.

Should I? Is this so bad? Oh yes! You should become extinct in time! Real patience, that is the real deal! Let’s say that if someone were to blow up the Eiffel Tower on top of the French, there would be some politicians crawling out of the ruins who would be the first to wave the banner of tolerance. It would be exemplary. Let’s be honest: Central European leaders have a lot learn.

It is difficult to answer the question: “When did it start?” Let’s first look at the psychological, religious background. Elias Canetti believes that Islam is a religion of warfare. It divides the world between Believers and Infidels. “The fate of these two ever-separated multitudes is to fight against each other. Religious war is a sacred duty.” Let’s add the opinion of J. van Ess that the Christian carries his religion inside himself, while a Muslim wants everything around him to be religious. For the goody two-shoes of the global ecumene, we recommend attention to Helmuth von Glasenapp’s words, who says that the Mohammedans do not know any other God but Allah. They refuse the doctrine of Christian Trinity explicitly. They think of it as multiple deities and refuse to consider it monotheism. (Of course they have a different theological interpretation, if their interests dictates it, but let’s leave that for now.)

Allah the merciful never lets go of the hand of the Muslims, not for a moment; he requires full devotion. The five-per-day collective prayer, the common fast, reinforces Muslims in the sense that they are more of a community than an individual.

Mohammed found the same psychological trick that was later used by modern cult leaders.

They abolish, or in the case of Muslims, they do not allow the development of a fully independent personality. Applied: the suicide bomber has no life — according to our perception — that he could lose. Only profits await him in the afterlife. In a social-psychological sense, Islam still holds millions of its followers in the Middle Ages. This should be taken into account by those who talk about integration and assimilation. I believe many of them really do take it into account. That’s why they dumped Mohammedans on Europe. Not pious Hindus, industrious Asians, or anybody from any other corner of the world. For the sake of the order, once again, Canetti: Islam is a religion of warfare.

More on the Diplomatic Row Between Hungary and The Netherlands

As we reported yesterday, Hungary has suspended top-level diplomatic relations with the Netherlands and withdrawn their ambassador from The Hague. The issue was an interview given to a Hungarian news outlet by the outgoing Dutch ambassador to Budapest, Gajus Scheltema, in which Mr. Scheltema likened the Hungarian government’s policies to those of the Islamic State.

Below is a report from Hungary’s English-language news channel:

Hat tip: Vlad Tepes.

Gates of Vienna News Feed 8/26/2017

The big news of the day was Hurricane Harvey, which made landfall on the coast of Texas near Corpus Christi late last night. The storm’s 135mph winds did severe damage along the coast, but the predicted rainfall from Harvey will be even more damaging — the storm is expected to stall, backtrack, and then linger over Texas for the next four days, dropping up to 40 inches of rain in the sodden coastal areas.

In other news, a security drill in the Houses of Parliament in Westminster has revealed significant deficiencies in the buildings’ defenses, which could result in the deaths of an estimated 100 MPs in the event of a serious terror attack.

Dutch Ambassador to Budapest Likens Hungarian Government to the Islamic State

Many years ago, back before 9-11 (possibly after the first WTC bombing), Congress started formulating anti-“terrorism” legislation. At the time certain conservatives expressed their concern that if the term “terrorism” entered the law books, then sooner or later the government would designate its political enemies as “terrorists” and prosecute them under the new statutes.

It seemed farfetched at the time, but as those early efforts eventually metastasized into the Patriot Act and the Department of Homeland Security, the Cassandras were proven right.

I was reminded of all this because of the recent crisis in Dutch-Hungarian diplomatic relations. Gajus Scheltema is the soon-to-be-former Dutch ambassador to Hungary. Just before his tenure in Budapest was scheduled to end, he gave an interview to the news portal 168 Óra Online — described by our translator as “a well-funded liberal site, The New York Times of Hungary” — that the Hungarian government found deeply offensive.

The ambassador’s remarks are referenced in the articles below. Many thanks to CrossWare for translating the relevant text from the interview:

Q:   So far there is not any danger [as in]: terror attacks in many countries of the EU; the most recent one in Barcelona where a fanatic was running over people.
A:   A terror attack with a car can happen anywhere; most of them are in the Middle East. Then should we bomb the Middle East now? Here is a group [the Islamic State] whose members are losers under globalization, and they turned to extremism and fanatical religiosity because it gives them a sense of security. They create enemies using the same principles as the Hungarian government.
 

Below are two articles from The Hungary Journal about all the brouhaha. The first article gives a brief report about what happened:

Unprecedented spat with the Dutch ambassador — Hungary Journal

The Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Peter Szijjarto rejected “in the strongest possible terms” the “outrageous” remarks of the outgoing Dutch ambassador to Hungary.

The minister “especially rejected” that ambassador Gajus Scheltema equated the Hungarian government with terrorists regarding their motives or methods. “This is an accusation that nobody took the liberties to say, not even in 2015, which brought the most brutal debates”, he added. Szijjarto stressed that before his departure the Dutch ambassador is no longer welcome in the MFA, he won’t be received there on any level.

We are glad that the Dutch ambassador is going home, hopefully he does it as soon as possible. Nobody should take the liberties to say such things against Hungary and the Hungarian people

he said.

Scheltema told Hungarian weekly 168 Ora that Islamic extremists are creating enemies by the same principle the Hungarian government does. The outgoing ambassador heavily criticised the Hungarian government and spoke about the Dutch concerns regarding corruption in the country too.

It got worse after that: Hungary suspended top-level diplomatic relations with The Netherlands.

The follow-up article:

Hungary recalls its ambassador from the Netherlands — Hungary Journal

Following the remarks of the outgoing Dutch ambassador, Hungary recalls its ambassador from the Netherlands for an indefinite period of time, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Peter Szijjarto announced at a press conference on Friday morning.

The Dutch ambassador to Budapest made a statement which harms Hungary’s dignity and sovereignty, ignores and by far oversteps diplomatic traditions. It’s a rare event and its gravity calls for diplomatic steps

Peter Szijjarto said.

“The ambassadorial-level diplomatic relations between the two countries are suspended for an indefinite period of time”, the minister said, adding that on Monday the head of the Hungarian charge d’affaires is going to reject “in the strongest possible terms” the Dutch ambassador’s remarks and ask for an explanation at the Dutch foreign ministry. Szijjarto made it clear that the government wants to know if the Dutch ambassador was speaking in his personal capacity or had a “central mandate”. The minister stressed that a “closed-door” explanation won’t be enough.

Szijjarto added that if the Netherlands doesn’t apologise, the Hungarian government will make further political and diplomatic steps. “Hungary is not a punchbag”, he said, adding that “the policy of subservience might have been common in Hungary before, but now it’s not”.

If this is how the Dutch want to continue our bilateral relations, we will act accordingly

Szijjarto added.

As we previously reported, Peter Szijjarto on Thursday “most firmly rejected” recent, “outrageous” remarks by Gajus Scheltema, who is soon to leave his post in Budapest. In an interview given to Hungarian weekly 168 Ora the outgoing diplomat said that Islamic extremism “applies the same principles to create an enemy as the Hungarian government”.

At his press conference, Szijjarto rejected the “accusations of comparing terrorists and the Hungarian government as to their motivation or methods”. He added that the ambassador was no longer welcome “at any level of the foreign ministry”.

We are glad that the Dutch ambassador is leaving and he will hopefully do that soon. Nobody should be allowed to make such remarks against Hungary or the Hungarian people

the foreign minister added.

Following our article, Dutch politician Geert Wilders called the Dutch ambassador “an idiot”.

Mr. Wilders and the PVV also confronted Foreign Minister Bert Koenders with what Ambassador Scheltema said, posing questions to Mr. Koenders in the Dutch parliament:

Bill Warner on the Enforcement of Sharia in Britain

In the following interview with Vlad Tepes, Dr. Bill Warner discusses three recent incidents in Britain that highlight the imposition of sharia law in the UK. One of them was featured here last week: the Islamic prayer in a council meeting in Oldham by Manchester. Another indicator is a directive banning all Christian prayers at public meetings. The third is the arrest of a young demonstrator who wrote “Stop Muslim Grooming Gangs” on his chest.

All three illustrate the fact that Britain is rapidly becoming a sharia state:
