3 Involved in Wendy’s Fire After Rayshsard Brooks Killing Learn Fate

The three people indicted for setting fire to the Wendy’s restaurant on University Avenue in southwest Atlanta, Natalie Hanna White, John Wesley Wade, and Chisom Kingston will appear in a Fulton County Court this morning to learn their fates. The three were accused and arrested of setting fire to the Wendy’s where police shot and killed Rayshard Brooks in the summer of 2020. Brooks’ death sparked protests, some violent, that ended up with the fast-food restaurant being burned to the ground.

A grand jury handed down those indictments in January of this year.

Nearly two full days after the shooting death of Rayshard Brooks, a large group of protesters had gathered around the Wendy’s located along University Avenue, just off the Downtown Connector. Shortly after 9:30 p.m., on June 13, just two days after the killing, flames could be seen shooting out of the closed restaurant.

80-Year-Old Store Owner Shoots Would-be Robber

Craig Cope, 80, was forced to use his firearm in self-defense when an armed man entered his liquor store with a rifle. The 80-year-old suffered a heart attack during the incident, but he has since returned to work and is in otherwise good health.

Surveillance video captured the shocking incident, which took place around 2:45 a.m. on Sunday morning. The California store owner fired one shot with a shotgun after a man entered the store with a rifle, which he pointed at the counter.

Alex Jones Says His Defamation Trial Was ‘Cordinated and Run’ By Billionaire George Soros and Accuses Judge of Being Corrupt in Diatribe Video After He’s Ordered to Pay Sandy Hook Victim’s Family Nearly $50 Million in Damages

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones immediately took to the airwaves after the verdict in his defamation trial on Friday — which will see him be forced to pay nearly $50million in damages to the family of slain six-year-old Jesse Lewis.

Lewis was among the 20 children who were shot dead by crazed gunman Adam Lanza at Sandy Hook elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, in December 2012. Another six people were killed in the massacre.

For years Jones claimed on his InfoWars platform that the shooting in Newton was a ‘false flag’ operation perpetrated by the US government to further gun control.

In his Friday broadcast, Jones claimed the trial against him was ‘coordinated and run’ by billionaire philanthropist George Soros and ‘operatives.’ He did not identify the other ‘operatives’ by name.

Doctors Criticize Fauci for Saying COVID Vaccines Induce ‘Only Temporary’ Menstrual Irregularities

Authored by Enrico Trigoso via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours)

Dr. Anthony Fauci’s recent comments on menstrual irregularities met with serious rebuttal from gynecologists, who say COVID-19 vaccines should not have been injected into pregnant women without adequate safety testing.

“Well, the menstrual thing is something that seems to be quite transient and temporary, that’s one of the points,” Fauci said in an appearance on Fox News on July 25, upon being asked about the effect of vaccines on menstrual cycles.

“We need to study it more,” Fauci added.

Food Banks Are Already Worried About Fall, Winter — Some Families May Not Have Turkeys This Year

The food crisis in America today is very real — and not limited to specific parts of the country or certain segments of society.

There is also concern right now about what lies ahead in terms of the fall and winter seasons.

Fox News Digital spoke to Katie Fitzgerald, president and COO of Feeding America, on Friday by phone to discuss what the organization is seeing — and she described “a perfect storm” of situations that are making things extremely challenging in terms of meeting the demands of the food insecure in this country.

Gates Calls Social Credit Scores an ‘Asset’ — Are They Coming to the US?

India is known as the most populous democracy in the world. It’s also home to the largest national biometric digital ID system in the world. Aadhaar.

According to a report from Reuters last week, tens of millions of children in India are at risk of being excluded from school this year because they’re not linked up to India’s biometric digital ID system.

Aadhaar, India’s federally-operated biometric digital ID system, collected the names, finger print scans, and eye scans of 1.2 billion Indians.

According to the report, India’s 2009 right to education act provides the legal right to free education for all children from six to 14 years old.

But apparently, only children willing to submit to invasive biometric recording and tracking are able to enjoy this “right”.

Las Cruces Police Identify Suspect’s Car in Road Rage Shooting That Injured Toddler

LAS CRUCES — Las Cruces police say a 3-year-old girl shot during a suspected road rage incident is in stable condition. Also, police have released some details about the suspected shooter and Crime Stoppers is offering a $1,000 reward for information that helps identify the shooter.

The girl, who was in the backseat of a black Ford pickup, was shot Friday afternoon near the intersection of Amador Avenue and Valley Drive

Before the shooting, police believe the occupants of the Ford pickup and a dark blue Honda Civic got into a “road rage altercation,” about 3:50 p.m. nearby where Amador crosses the railroad tracks, according to a news release.

Near the intersection of Amador and Valley, the Civic pulled alongside the pickup and the passenger fired at least one round at the truck, police said…

New Study Finds COVID-19 Vaccines Did Not Reduce Mortality in the U.S.

In today’s report we sit down to interview Dr. Denis Rancourt, a Canadian scientist whose work has been published in over 100 peer-reviewed journals and whose work in more recent years has taken close looks at death rates during the existence of COVID-19.

Last time I interviewed Dr. Rancourt we discussed a statistical analysis he worked on reviewing Canada’s all cause mortality during the first year of life with COVID-19, which showed the country’s total deaths were not statistically consistent with that of a pandemic.

This time around, Dr. Rancourt discusses the shocking statistical findings that he, along with Dr. Marine Baudin and Dr. Jérémie Mercier, found in their recently published epidemiological study called COVID-Period Mass Vaccination Campaign and Public Health Disaster in the USA. In short, the study shows that the COVID-19 vaccines, which have been heavily pushed into the arms of Americans, did diddly squat to save lives.

Orban Captured the CPAC Audience With Keynote Speech

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s vow to protect the principles of God, homeland, and family, as well as his firm stance in favor of Judeo-Christian culture and the rejection of illegal migration, all won the approval of the Dallas audience at CPAC on Thursday, researcher Zoltan Lomnici Jr. told news portal Mandiner.

In his speech, the Hungarian leader continued his previous line of thought from the first CPAC conference conference held in Hungary back in May, in which he outlined his recipe for success, and touched on the common points of interest for the Hungarian and American right-wing and conservative communities.

In a press conference Saturday afternoon, Butler Township Chief of Police John Porter provided an update on the investigation into the shooting.

Members of the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, Federal Bureau of Investigations, Vandalia Police Department and the superintendent of Vandalia-Butler Schools.

Porter shared his condolences to the families of the four victims and identified them.

Eva and Clyde Knox were found dead in their home on Hardwick Place, Porter shared. Shortly after Porter said Sarah Anderson and her 15 year daughter Kayla were also found dead.

Kayla was a student at Vandalia-Butler High School.

Superintendent Robert O’Leary said the district is mourning the loss of Kayla and described her as being a friend to many, kind, and a “ray of light.”

Pastors, youth ministers and therapists will be available to students who need them O’Leary said.

Porter said that investigators have been aware of a video of Stephen Marlow circulating on social media that is said to be taken after the shooting. They did not release details of the video they called “disturbing.”

He said investigators believe Marlow went on I-70 and traveled west and left the state of Ohio. Neighboring states have been alerted, porter said.

Porter ended the conference by asking Marlow to turn himself in and that investigators are here to help him.

Police reminded the public to not approach Marlow and to contact 911 or 1-800-CALL-FBI if they believe they locate him…

Rabbi Put on Hold for Hours by Toronto Police When Trying to Report Crime at Jewish Community Centre

The Jewish Russian Community Centre (JRCC) is located in North Toronto. On several occasions recently, video surveillance indicated an individual was trying to break into the centre. While damaging the building, the individual was never able to actually break in. Perhaps the individual was motivated by antisemitism, or maybe it was just a garden variety thief.

But here’s the real story: When the director of the JRCC, Rabbi Shmuel Neft, attempted to report these incidents to the police, he was forced to wait hours upon hours before anyone would even lend him an ear.

Extinction Rebellion’s protesters were mostly social and health care professionals and students, according to a tweet from the group(siirryt toiseen palveluun). The organisation demanded that Finland speeds up cutting off fossil fuels and immediately stop using Russian fossil fuels.

Teboil is a subsidiary of Russian-owned oil conglomerate Lukoil.

Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine earlier this year, Extinction Rebellion has protested against the use of Russian fossil fuels.

According to Helsinki police, officers arrived on the scene and began negotiating with the protesters.

For three years, the organizers have been planning a “banana eating” contest. It is a test judged by men in which only women participate. This curious celebration of manhood has shocked many people, who oppose it.

UK Looks to End Traditional Ship Navigation Despite Russian GPS Jamming Threat

Even as the British government considers alternatives to the fragile GPS systems that power everything from smartphones to warships, the British authority which is responsible for mapping the oceans is set to dispense with traditional paper charts, pushing ship’s navigators worldwide to digital instead — a move a leading naval expert has called shortsighted.

Navigational charts, the extremely accurate plotting of the sea floor and above-surface navigational hazards and landmarks with which mariners have kept their ships safe and on course for generations, are to be phased out within years, the British government office responsible for producing them has announced. Yet the push for digital, which the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) announcement on the matter makes clear is a cost-cutting exercise, comes as the satellite-based replacements for traditional navigation are dramatically revealed as deeply fragile by Russia’s war in Ukraine.

The official police watchdog has claimed, after two years of investigation, that is has been unable to find out why Greater Manchester Police (GMP) dropped an inquiry into ‘Asian’ rape gangs that identified almost 100 suspects.

The Independent Office of Police Conduct (IOPC), which is supposed to invigilate law enforcement in England and Wales, launched an investigation into three Mancunian officers following the publication of a grooming gangs inquiry commissioned by city mayor Andy Burnham which — like other inquiries before it — found that council officials, social workers, and police officers had failed the mostly white victims of mostly Muslim, South Asian heritage grooming gang rapists, in part due to politically correct fears around the issue.

What is “Love Jihad” That Has Arrived in Greece From Pakistan?

17-year-old Nicoletta was tragically killed on Monday, allegedly by her 30-year-old boyfriend identified as Sani. The teenage girl insisted on a relationship with her adult Pakistani partner despite opposition from her father. Meanwhile, one can walk around on a Friday or Saturday night in Athens and see many Greek teenage girls like Nicoletta with their adult Pakistani boyfriends, signifying that the “Love Jihad” phenomena has arrived in Greece from Pakistan.

Hindu girls from Punjab in Pakistan and North India to Kerala in South India have been trapped, coerced, kidnapped and/or feigned into relationships/marriages with Muslim men that have ulterior motives outside of love — conversion to Islam.

The Islamification of women under the veil of love is not only reduced to South Asia’s Hindu population though — Buddhists have also reportedly been targeted by Muslim Rohingya men in Myanmar and Christians in Kerala. Similar complaints have been made by the UK’s Sikh community.

Frighteningly, two hundreds years after Islamic extremism and jihadism was eliminated from Athens following independence from the Ottoman Empire, it appears that the mass arrival of Pakistani men has also meant the arrival of “Love Jihad” to the Greek capital.

Monsanto and BlackRock Are Buying Up Ukraine

Ukraine is being sold off. The mendacious Western struggle for the “soul of Ukraine” is actually for the monopolies, Monsanto, Vanguard and BlackRock — to pick the country apart.

The Ukrainian land reform law, which after 20 years was passed by the Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada in 2021, made it possible for international agricultural conglomerates — belonging to the western zone of influence — to buy up large amounts of Ukrainian soil. At the same time, ordinary people were led to believe that ultimately the opposite was true: The sponsors of the bill brazenly lied about the alleged protection of Ukrainian farmers and their fertile land.

Russian Forces Begin Assault on Two Eastern Ukraine Cities

KYIV, Ukraine — Russian forces began an assault Saturday on two key cities in the eastern Donetsk region and kept up rocket and shelling attacks on other Ukrainian cities, including one close to Europe’s largest nuclear power plant, Ukraine’s military and local officials said.

Both cities of Bakhmut and Avdiivka have been considered key targets of Russia’s ongoing offensive across Ukraine’s east, with analysts saying Moscow needs to take Bakhmut if it is to advance on the regional hubs of Sloviansk and Kramatorsk.

“In the Donetsk direction, the enemy is conducting an offensive operation, concentrating its main efforts on the Bakhmut and Avdiivka directions. It uses ground attack and army aviation,” the Ukrainian General Staff said on Facebook.

The last Russian strike on Sloviansk was July 30, but Ukrainian forces are fortifying their positions around the city in expectation of new fighting…

Russian Ship Explodes With Fireball at Sea — Smoke Billowing

A RUSSIAN ship caught fire in the occupied waters of Sevastopol, footage emerging on social media has shown.

Smoke on the Russian ship was recorded by the naval expert HI Sutton from the OSINT project. The expert believes that Ukrainian missiles could have knocked out the ship. According to preliminary information, this is a project 22160 patrol ship of the Vasily Bykov type.

There is no official confirmation yet.

It comes as three ships loaded with grain left Ukrainian ports on Friday under a recently concluded safe passage deal, the Turkish defence ministry said.

The first grain ship to set sail from a Ukrainian port since the start of the Russian invasion, departed Odesa on Monday…

The Turkish Defence Ministry said on Twitter the Panama-flagged Navistar, carrying 33,000 tonnes of corn bound for Ireland, departed from Odesa.

The Maltese-flagged Rojen, carrying 13,000 tonnes of corn, departed from Chornomorsk port bound for Britain. The Turkish-flagged ship Polarnet, carrying 12,000 tonnes of corn, set off from Chornomorsk for the Turkish Black Sea port of Karasu…

Moscow is seeking to control the largely Russian-speaking Donbas, comprised of Luhansk and Donetsk provinces, where pro-Moscow separatists gained control of territory after the Kremlin annexed Crimea to the south in 2014.

Mr Zelensky spoke of fierce fighting around the town of Avdiivka and the fortified village of Pisky, where Ukraine has acknowledged its Russian foe’s “partial success” in recent days.

The Ukrainian military said on Thursday Russian forces had mounted at least two assaults on Pisky but had been repelled.

Ukraine has spent the last eight years fortifying defensive positions in Pisky, seeing it as a buffer zone against Russian-backed forces who control the city of Donetsk about 10 km to the southeast.

Ukrainian General Oleksiy Hromov told a news conference his forces had recaptured two villages around the eastern city of Sloviansk but had been pushed back to the town of Avdiivka after being forced to abandon a coal mine regarded as an important defensive position.

Ukraine’s Himars Train Strike Was ‘Unusually High-Casualty Event’

A 40-carriage train carrying Russian troops and vital ammunition was blown up by Ukrainian forces last week. The train was struck at Brylivka railway station while travelling from Crimea on July 29. Around 80 Russian soldiers were reportedly killed.

A further 200 soldiers were injured.

Military history author Chris Owen noted that the attack was an “unusually high-casualty event”…

He also pointed to analysis by fellow historian Trent Telenko, who “pointed out the vulnerability of Russia’s non-palletised approach to logistics and its dependency on manual labour, which makes loading and unloading far slower than in Western militaries”.

Anton Gerashchenko, Ukrainian Advisor to the Minister of Internal Affairs, confirmed the blast in a post on Facebook last Sunday.

He said: “On the night of Friday to Saturday, a high-precision HIMARS strike destroyed the railway echelon of more than 40 wagons that arrived from Crimea with manpower, equipment and ammunition at the railway station of Brilevka, Kherson region.

Ukraine Denies Responsibility for Shelling of Russian-Held Nuclear Power Plant

The nuclear power plant, located on the Dnipro River in southern Ukraine, was taken over by Russian forces in March.

It is the largest of its kind in Europe, with six reactors.

The plant was targeted by shelling on Friday…

Shells hit a high-voltage power line at the plant, prompting its operators to disconnect a reactor despite no radioactive leak being detected.

Even though the plant was captured by Russian forces in the opening phase of the war, it is still run by its Ukrainian technicians.

Ukraine’s state nuclear power company Energoatom blamed Russia for the damage at the power station but Russia’s defence ministry accused Ukrainian forces of shelling the plant, saying a leak of radiation had been avoided only by luck.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia was responsible and accused it of committing “an open, brazen crime, an act of terror”. He called for sanctions on the entire Russian nuclear industry.

Earlier this week, the UN’s nuclear watchdog appealed for access to the plant, which Washington claims Moscow is using as a battlefield shield…

The Ministry of Defence raised concerns regarding the Zaporizhzhia facility on Friday morning [the morning before the shelling].

It said in a statement: “… Russian forces have probably used the wider facility area, in particular the adjacent city of Enerhodar, to rest their forces, utilising the protected status of the nuclear power plant to reduce the risk to their equipment and personnel from overnight Ukrainian attacks.”

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Monday… alleged Russia’s actions went beyond using a “human shield”, calling it a “nuclear shield.”

Ukraine Captures One of Russia’s 4,500 1976 Vintage T-80 Tanks — Western Media Gloats They Stole Putin’s ‘Prized Trophy’ Tank

VLADIMIR PUTIN’S prized Trophy T-80 tank is now in the hand of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Video footage shared on social media shows Ukrainian forces finding the tank. Ukrainian forces who previously captured a tank of the same type said its systems make it “exceptional adding that it is “good to drive”, “fast, manoeuvrable” and “comes and goes quickly”. It comes after NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg warned that a war between Russia and NATO would be “much worse” than the situation in Ukraine.

Japanese Surgeon Calls for End to COVID Vaccine Booster Program in Letter to Prominent Medical Journal

Dr. Kenji Yamamoto, a Japanese cardiovascular surgeon, has penned a letter to the peer-reviewed journal Virology that calls for an end to the COVID-19 vaccine booster program in the country. “As a safety measure, further booster vaccinations should be discontinued,” Yamamoto wrote. The highly regarded surgeon cited the fact that COVID-19 vaccines have been linked to vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia, which has been fatal in a number of patients.

Australia Explores Digital ID Options

This week, The Australian Financial Review published an analysis report of the financial review summit for the Government Services ministry, which oversees Services Australia, Medicare, the National Disability Insurance Agency, and Centrelink (social security).

During the summit, digital reforms were discussed, with Government Services minister Bill Shorten referencing South Korea’s portal, which allows residents to manage their personal data that has been stored by the government.

Service Australia is considering digital identity. According to the report, the Digital Transformation Agency has the resources to consolidate functions such as digital IDs, and government payments, revenue, and permissions. Private companies, including social media, are not included in the scheme.

Despite Climate-Doomsaying, Great Barrier Reef’s Coral Growth Soars to Record

Authored by Chris Morrison via DailySceptic.org

The near vertiginous rise in the annual growth of coral at the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is continuing, with further major increases recorded across large areas.

According to the 2021-22 annual summary from the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS), levels of coral cover in the northern and central areas of the reef were at their highest levels over the past 36 years of monitoring.

The growth is of course excellent news for environmentalists, but curiously, at the time of writing, the news is being downplayed in the mainstream media. The demise of the world’s coral reefs has long been a go-to poster scare story for Net Zero promoters.

Nigeria Report Finds Muslim Extremists Up to 60x More Likely to Kidnap Christians Than Muslims, 10x More Likely to Kill Them

And the problem is being exacerbated by a reluctance to accept the religious nature of the violence, both within the country itself and in the UK in terms of its response to the worsening situation, experts have warned. The report by the Observatory for Religious Freedom in Africa (ORFA) says the number Christians killed was 9.6 times higher than the number of Muslims in jihadism-related violence per capita between Oct 2019 and Sept 2020…

Dr David Landrum, director of advocacy at Open Doors UK and Ireland, told Express.co.uk: “Christians are being disproportionately targeted… The problem of religiously motivated attacks by Islamist extremists on Christians (and also on moderate Muslims) will continue to grow as a problem unless the religious driver is acknowledged… Instead of listing the complexity of the range of factors driving violence in Nigeria, the UK government needs to accept the overwhelming evidence that religion is the core driver…”

Gideon Para-Mallam, is the Director of Research at the Observatory of Religious Freedom in Africa (ORFA).

He told Express.co.uk: “Historically, there has and still remains a pattern of systemic persecution against Christians which became structural during the British Colonial era through the Indirect Rule system they introduced.

“What is happening politically will play out to be a real existential threat for Christians. We should not wait until it happens before crying out. The British Government and Western democracies who believe in participatory democracies and inclusive governance should not sit on the fence.”

In a message to the incoming UK Prime Minister — either Foreign Secretary Liz Truss or former Chancellor Rishi Sunak — Mr Para-Mallam said: “The UK Government needs to leverage on her relationship with Nigeria which is historical by getting the Nigerian government to provide justice for all Nigerians and act squarely to end the violence.

“Britain should respect the wishes of the people above the lies and manipulation of the present government and subsequent government… The British government hobnobs too much with corrupt leaders not just in Nigeria but Africa. This needs to end…

“Diplomacy is good but its poisonous if corruption persists and for Britain it remains business as usual with Nigeria.”

UK: Forty Per Cent of Channel Migrants Are From Albania — Not a Country Devastated by War of Famine — Secret Military Report Reveals

Forty per cent of Channel migrants are from peaceful Albania — not a war-torn nation, according to a secret military intelligence report, Mail Plus reveals.

A total of 1,075 Albanians crossed the Channel in small boats organised by people-smuggling gangs during a six-week period this summer.

Last year a total of 757 Albanians crossed the Channel last year, according to Government figures.

Albanian gangs are reportedly buying huge inflatable boats from Chinese factories and customising them by asking Chinese firms to make them bigger to squeeze more migrants onboard.

Experts believe the crossings are being fuelled by social media, with people-smugglers advertising their services on TikTok and charging up to £5,500 per person.

Indiana Becomes First State to Pass Post-Roe Abortion Ban

Indiana on Friday approved significant abortion restrictions, becoming the first state in the country to pass an abortion ban after the Supreme Court’s overturn of Roe v. Wade on June 24.

Under the new bill, all abortion clinics in the state of Indiana will lose their licenses. When the bill takes effect, legal abortions can only be performed in hospitals or hospital-owned outpatient clinics. A doctor who performs an illegal abortion or doesn’t file the required reports after performing one will lose their medical license, a step up from the current state abortion law that states a doctor “may” lose their license.

Other states have various abortion bans but their legislation was passed before Roe and went into effect after the Supreme Court ruled.

Republican Governor Eric Holcomb signed the ban on abortions 10-weeks post-fertilization, with exceptions made for cases of rape or incest, pregnancies in which the life or physical health of the mother is compromised, or if a fetus is diagnosed with a lethal anomaly.

‘The Law Works and Saves People,’ Says Pro-Life Activist as Poland’s Abortion Rate Drops

The number of abortions in Poland dropped tenfold in 2021 due to the introduction of new regulations that provide better protection of life in the prenatal phase.

“This means that the law works and allows for saving individual people,” said Magdalena Korzekwa-Kaliszuk, a lawyer, psychologist, and CEO of Grupa Proelio Foundation.

According to data provided by the Ministry of Health, the number of abortions totaled 1,076 in 2018, 1,100 in 2019, and 1,076 in 2020. In 2021, that number dropped to just 107.

  1. The Danish judiciary is developing

    By Lars Hedegaard

    Everyone remembers the first one they went to bed with. Then came a few others, which you remember more or less clearly or have forgotten. So it is with other milestones in life. For example
    I remember clearly the day I realised that we have a politicised judiciary. It was on 3 June 2015 that the Supreme Court made up something that Professor Bent Jensen had not written about the KGB agent Jørgen Dragsdahl and convicted him on this freely invented basis. This travesty of a trial cost the professor DKK 602,700 in damages and court costs plus a fine, while a triumphant Dragsdahl could stand outside the Supreme Court waving a Soviet flag. Then Jensen would learn that you can’t bother the left with impunity.

    Nor can one make fun of the religion of peace, and now the hammer has fallen on Jaleh Tavakoli. She has been sentenced to three months’ probation for sharing a video in which a holy Moroccan warrior cuts off the head of a Danish woman, Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, while she is calling her mother. It is not acceptable for nice Denmark to insist that Islam is a religion like any other, and that it is therefore pure racism to provide unfavourable information about Muhamed and his men. Tavakoli has appealed the decision to the Landsret, which presumably has long since received instructions from the Ministry of Justice on how to rule.

    A dozen people have previously been punished for sharing the video from Morocco. Debater Maj-Britt Krittenstein has been sentenced to six months’ suspended prison and Snaphan’s (snaphanen.dk) editor Steen Raaschou is now awaiting his third trial in the same case. Either it must be a very complicated case or the prosecutor has decided to ruin his life.
    Nothing above and nothing beside Allah.

    -It’s the culture, idiot!

    By Lars Hedegaard

    It was the American journalist Andrew Breitbart who formulated one of the most iconic statements of our time: ‘Politics is a consequence of culture’. A very thought-provoking statement considering that Danish politicians hardly give culture any thought. And if anyone tries, they get a shitstorm, like when Pia Kjærsgaard wanted to make a case for “Danish values”. What values? the media asked derisively, agreeing that Danish values do not exist.

    What good is Breitbart’s bon mot? On the face of it, he is right when he says that concrete political decisions are (often) based on often unconsidered ideas that we can call culture. But where does culture come from? Why are certain assumptions about what is obviously right and true so widespread that politicians don’t even need to refer to them, because that’s how all good and virtuous people feel? Surely the spread of cultural norms cannot derive from culture – otherwise one would say that culture is part of culture – but must be rooted in something else. Someone must have an advantage in promoting certain cultural norms at the expense of others.

    Why is the municipality of Copenhagen giving €7.1 million between 2020 and 2023 to a company called Normstormerne, which indoctrinates schoolchildren with a woke ideology about gender identity, sexual orientation and ‘norm criticism’, which seems to be about inciting the little ones to hate the social order? Why this municipally-paid propaganda for distorted sexual fantasies, with which they want to burden innocent children who go to school to learn to read, write and count?
    What is all this LGBTQ+ stuff?

    The short answer is that as long as people can be made to believe that their biggest problems are related to
    ¤ their sissies and wimps, they won’t question the left’s right to run Copenhagen or the actions of big business.

    But the Normstorms, led by Danish core member Monir Mooghen, are also fighting the ghetto list, which they believe oppresses a particular minority, namely our old friend Islam. And to make their point clear, they include a picture of Muslim women dressed as black thugs.

    Culture is a political tool, and one wishes that the Danish parties, DF and Nye Borgerlige, would pay more attention to it – instead of floating along. If they don’t take the fight, nothing else matters.

  2. What a sweet coincidence! I have repeatedly noticed how a “Chicago Reader” notes my comments and sends them to the “News” section.

    • You have good comments. I also have to give you credit for suggesting internet search for ‘allahu akbar’, one can find interesting articles with those key words.

      • I do not know how things are with the English-language search. But in Russian, I noticed a funny trend.

        Previously, in order to find news about crimes of migrants, I had to write in the search box “Migrant crime” or “Visitor of the near abroad crime”. Now it is enough for me to type only one word “migrant” for all crimes to be in the TOP.

        Something has changed a lot in our country. Previously, the repressive state machine worked in the name of “friendship of peoples”, now it is directed against pacifists. And apparently the people understood this and in the press and social networks more boldly write their opinion about the dominance of Central Asian migrants.

  3. Swedes aren’t worth a damn

    Borlänge’s S-leadership gives thumbs up to ethnic mixing Supports Ygeman’s latest outburst

    Migration and Integration Minister Anders Ygeman’s (S) talk of forcibly relocating Swedes and immigrants in order to achieve the integration that no voluntary measures have been successful at, is now supported by the governing Social Democrats in Borlänge – one of the towns that has suffered deep wounds due to the ultra-liberal immigration policies of the past decades.

    Well-adjusted Swedes are to be forcibly relocated to “vulnerable” Tjärna Ängar and maladjusted immigrants to more affluent areas.

    Ygeman’s statement is partly copied from the Danish S-government in Denmark. There, they want to try to empty what they call “immigrant ghettos” of people who do not work, who live on benefits, who are socially maladjusted, criminals and/or Muslim radicalised, using more harsh methods.

    In the Swedish version, however, the project focuses more on creating cream files for migrants who have not managed to establish themselves in Swedish society by their own efforts.

    The proposal has attracted criticism from both the left and the right. The left is outraged by what it calls the “racism” of moving people around based on their skin colour and origin, while right-wing sympathisers are more critical of the additional special rights above all others that are now to be given to immigrants while punishing Swedes.

    Some who have taken up the idea are the Social Democrats in Borlänge. Here they have long been grappling with extremely difficult immigration-related social problems.
    The Tjärna ängar area is nationally renowned as proof of the consequences of Swedish mass immigration policy – unemployment is sky-high, as is benefit dependency, gang crime is soaring, honour culture and radical Islam are spreading. The area is heavily segregated with only immigrants, most of them non-Westerners, and almost no Swedes.

    Whip for Swedes, carrot for migrants
    In an opinion piece in Dagens Nyheter, Borlänge’s S-president Erik Nises backs Ygeman’s proposal. With whips for Swedes and carrots for migrants, Borlänge will now be mixed up. Above all, it is in the housing market that Nises wants to see coercive measures.

    “In order to break segregation, those who have a job or are studying should primarily be allowed to rent housing in the cheaper areas, and those who are unemployed should be allowed to rent housing in the more expensive areas,” he writes.

    In concrete terms, this means that well-to-do Swedes should be turned down if they are looking for an apartment in a well-functioning residential area and instead be referred to Tjärna ängar, for example.

    On the contrary, benefit-dependent and criminally burdened migrants will be offered priority for apartments in the nicer areas and will not have to meet the income and morality requirements that are necessary for Swedes to sign contracts.

    Furthermore, Nises wants to stop the conversion of rental apartments into condominiums for Swedes, but introduce special rules for immigrants so that they can convert even if they have no work income, have payment defaults or for other reasons cannot get a mortgage.

    Unclear if S has the parties on board
    The Social Democrats do not govern alone in Borlänge. It has clung on to power with various types of coalitions and after the 2018 elections formed a coalition with the Green Party, the Centre Party, the Liberals and the local Omsorg för alla (Care for All).

    It is not clear from Nise’s article whether the proposals are anchored in the partner parties or how they will otherwise gain support for them in the next parliamentary term.
    At the same time, the S has lost many voters to the Sweden Democrats in Borlänge.

  4. Nicoletta who was killed by a Pakistani was not Greek, she was gipsy.
    Her family was not what a family should be.
    No Greek family accepts an Islamist as a boyfriend.
    As for Greek girls,I have no information .We usually marry Europeans.

    • Why did I just read that Greek teenage girls are embracing a so called Pakistani “love jihad”? Would this be simply due to teenage rebellion against the family? Doesn’t bode well though, teens these days living their lives on tic-toc and similar social media.
