Culture-Enriching Nightmare in Skellefteå

Last summer a 12-year-old girl named Luna was tied to a tree, raped, and almost strangled to death with her own shoelace by a 15-year-old Ethiopian culture-enricher in the Swedish town of Skellefteå. When the “youth” entered the country, his parents had registered his age as 13, which is why he was enrolled in school with girls of Luna’s age.

The near-strangulation deprived Luna’s brain of oxygen for a critical period before emergency personnel could reach her and begin treatment. Her ordeal has left her a near-vegetable, unable to move her limbs or speak. She is clearly aware of what has happened to her, however, and has endured unimaginable ongoing trauma. Her condition requires round-the-clock medical care.

See this article from Remix News (hat tip Reader from Chicago) for details on the incident that left Luna in such a gravely disabled condition.

The attack on Luna received relatively little attention last summer, but the girl’s aunt Emma recently went public with her case, and has garnered widespread public support, including donations that will help finance the necessary medical treatment and equipment to help mitigate her debilitated condition.

Luna’s family on the big support: “Feel our thanks”

December 22, 2022

Just under a week has passed since Luna’s family chose to tell about the serious crime that has turned their lives upside down.

The support has been enormous — and with that comes the feeling of being less alone in their grief.

“You know who you are — feel our thanks,” says Luna’s aunt, Emma.

by Katrin Krantz

Staggering. Beyond all expectations.

That is how Luna’s aunt, Emma, describes the just under a week that has passed since they went out and told Luna’s story to Expressen.

Reactions have been strong. Many have reached out to the family.

“It has been hard to take in how big this has become. It feels like all of Sweden stood up and hugged us,” says Emma.

She could not have foreseen the wave of warmth and sympathy that came in the wake of the reporting.

“We in the family had an ambition that Luna would be given a voice. That she would not be hidden and forgotten in the statistics, and that we would pursue her case.”

They have now made contact with people who have cutting-edge competence and can give advice about, for example, Luna’s rehabilitation. In the text, Emma tells how Luna is happy to greet dogs, and many dog owners have reached out and offered canine companionship.

Tear Down This Mosque!

As reported here last week in the news feed, a mob of angry Muslims prevented police from shutting down an illegal mosque in Florence. Below are excerpts from a Breitbart article about the incident (hat tip Reader from Chicago):

A mob of Muslims in the Italian city of Florence blocked a local bailiff from repossessing an illegal mosque, with hundreds of people preventing police from entering.

A bailiff and local police attempted to take back a former garage in Piazza dei Ciompi being used as a mosque after the owner of the property refused to renew the contract with its operator due to money being owed.

On Friday morning, hundreds gathered in front of the mosque to stop police from entering the premises, as well as the local bailiff and legal representation for the property owner, the newspaper Il Giornale reports.

Florence imam Izzedin Elzir commented on the attempted eviction, saying: “We do not know if there will be a postponement of the eviction, we are here to pray. We will not leave until we find an alternative.”

“I thank those who do their part to guarantee the rights of all: part of this right is that of property and must be guaranteed, we are the first to say that we must give the space back,” he claimed.

[…]

Federico Bussolin, a local city councillor in Florence and member of the League, added: “The eviction of the illegal mosque must be done.”

Similar scenes have been seen elsewhere in Europe, such as in Franc in 2017 when Muslims in the city of Clichy took to the streets to protest a local government move to remove them from a building they had occupied and used as a mosque.

The following video shows remarks made by Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini about the illegal mosque. Many thanks to HeHa for the translation, and to Vlad Tepes and RAIR Foundation for the subtitling:

Joyeux Noël

And while I’m at it: Fröhliche Weihnachten, Feliz Navidad, and Merry Christmas.

The future Baron is here, and he is doing the cooking, which is fortunate for both of us. I may be somewhat truant in my posting today, but there will be a news feed tonight, as usual.

The Great Christmas Storm of ’22 only touched us lightly here in the Central Virginia Piedmont. We had a lot of cold rain on Thursday, and then the temperature plummeted all day Friday, with gale-force winds that flash-froze the mud. That night it got down to about 5°F (-15°C), and it stayed bitter all day yesterday. But it’s slightly above freezing today.

There was considerable ice and snow further to the north and west, with power outages and blizzard conditions. I consider myself fortunate to be here with nothing to worry about other than frozen ground and a car that is somewhat sluggish to start.

I laid in a good cellar in advance of the future Baron’s visit, so we will have a festive time.

I wish all my readers a glorious Yule.

Gypsies vs. Gypsies

This report from Cologne isn’t just enricher vs. enricher violence; it’s intramural warfare between gypsy clans. The rich tapestry of multicultural diversity has been exported from the Balkans to Germany.

Roma vs. Bosniaks

Lynch mob kills in the middle of Cologne

Did a Roma lynch mob kill its victim in Cologne over a feud between family clans? The reason, drunken slurred insults. Apparently a bystander had to die for it. The search for the thirty attackers is difficult.

In a pub in Serbia, a drunk Roma babbled torture fantasies into the internet. The result: one day later, in broad daylight in Cologne, a murderous mob attacked the brother of the drunk. A video that was shown in a murder trial before the district court in Cologne documents the hatred that is breaking ground in the middle of Germany.

The bloody deed happened on March 10 in the Höhenberg district of Cologne. Senad H. (37) slowly drives his Smart across Bamberger Street; he wants to turn off. Suddenly the small car is surrounded by a horde of thirty men. One reaches through the passenger window and pulls the key out of the ignition. The rest of the mob yanks the 37-year-old out of the vehicle. They hit and kick him; they stab the defenseless man 17 times; one of the perpetrators hits him several times with a hammer. Then the attackers flee.

Despite the emergency doctor, clinic and multiple emergency operations, the victim dies two weeks later in the clinic. The police secure video recordings and can thus identify some of the perpetrators; four are arrested. One of them is Halil H. The 31-year-old man has been on trial in the district court since November 23 for joint murder. The public prosecutor is certain that the reason for the lynching of the Roma was the video of the victim’s brother.

Investigators now suspect the lynch mob is out of the country

The day before, he had uploaded a video online in which he sang and slurred his fantasies of torture and murder against a rival Roma family, reported the Bild newspaper. He wields a gun in front of the camera. Then he chops off imaginary hands with a hatchet and is said to have made insulting remarks about the deceased of Halil H.’s family.

“The public prosecutor accuses the defendant of having decided with his family to kill the injured party solely because of his family affiliation,” a spokeswoman for the district court told the Express in the run-up to the trial . “All members of the accused’s extended family should participate in this.” The police are looking for other perpetrators with international arrest warrants. Investigators suspect that the lynch mob has fled abroad.

Afterword from the translator:

It looks like Germany, and the rest of the Western World, is turning itself into a massive South African-style township. Well DONE.

Excess Mortality in Germany, Part Five

The following video is the fifth and last segment from a recent press conference called by the AfD (Alternative für Deutschland, Alternative for Germany) to discuss the massive increase in excess mortality in Germany, as shown by multiple sources of official statistics. Previously: Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four.

In this final installment, the data analyst and programmer Tom Lausen concludes his presentation of statistics which provide evidence of adverse (and fatal) effects of the experimental mRNA treatment intended to mitigate the effects of infection with the Wuhan Coronavirus. He and Martin Sichert, a member of the Bundestag for the AfD, then summarize their findings and take questions from the audience.

What is striking about this material is the obvious misfeasance (and possible malfeasance) of public institutions such as the Paul Ehrlich Institute and the Robert Koch Institute. Messrs Lausen and Sichert make an irrefutable case that these institutions have failed to perform their duty under the law, which requires them to collect the relevant data on the effects of “vaccination” and make it available to the public. The AfD researchers have demonstrated that the data is all available in the public domain, but the health authorities have simply, for their own inscrutable reasons, failed to gather it.

Culture-Enriching Terror Arrests in Limburg

On Wednesday two Syrian brothers were arrested in the Netherlands on suspicion of terrorism. Many thanks to Gary Fouse for translating this article from De Telegraaf:

Elite police unit arrests two Syrian brothers on suspicion of terrorism

On Wednesday evening, with a great show of force, the elite police unit DSI arrested two Syrian brothers on Crostolostraat in Stein (Limburg) on suspicion of terrorism.

A police spokesperson confirmed the arrests of the men, aged between 20 and 22 years, and says that the investigation was focused on Limburg, but did not want to comment on the substance of the suspicions. The Special Intervention Service (DSI), the unit utilized in terror threats and arrests of armed persons, used force in the entry around 10pm. Neighbors heard four loud bangs. The police stated that measures were used to break in or to disorient the suspects. Witnesses say shots were also fired.

Brothers

The arrested men are brothers in their early twenties and of Syrian origin. Neighbors say that during the operation, heavily-armed police ordered them to stay inside.

Stein Mayor Marion Leurs doesn’t want to comment, and calls it “a matter for the police”.

In shock

Zaam Wonen, the corporation that rents out the residence that was raided, says it is awaiting official reports from the police. “If what we hear is true, then we have a problem. Then that would be in violation of the rental agreement and would have consequences,” says Director Karel Smitsmans, who did not want to go into detail. “We are just as surprised and shocked as the neighborhood. We have never received alarming signals about this family.”

Deep into the night, the investigators were busy with the investigation on Crostolostraat in the Stein neighborhood of Nieuwdorp. And according to neighbors, a police dog and drone have been deployed in the operation. The suspects are in custody and are being questioned.

Quis Custodiet Ipsos Custodes?

The German Greens — functionally indistinguishable from Communists — used to be staunch defenders of citizens’ rights to digital privacy and personal data protection. Now that they’re part of the ruling “traffic light* coalition, however, they’re gung-ho for government surveillance of citizens using all the means available to the modern technocratic state.

Many thanks to Hellequin GB for translating this article from Pleiteticker.de. The translator’s comments are in square brackets:

Habeck raves about iris scans and facial recognition: The green desire for the surveillance state?

At the federal government’s little-noticed “digital summit”, Robert Habeck [Vice-Chancellor and Minister of the Economy and Climate] raved about Orwellian technologies such as iris scans for paying and face recognition in supermarkets. The Greens always pretend to be a civil rights party — how does that fit together?

“Data — creating digital [amoral] values together” was the motto of the digital summit of the federal government. An apt title on the subject: data is one of the most valuable commodities of the 21st century, traded in a market that has long been worth $200 billion. A topic that the digital party FDP is of course happy to take on.

But: Technically, the FDP is also a data protection party. Technically. Because the Free Democrat Volker Wissing, Digital Minister, suddenly struck an unfamiliar tone at the digital summit: “We want significantly more data to be made available and also used,” emphasized the minister. [Used? For what? Absolute control!] This requires “courage and openness”. There was no question of protecting privacy — the FDP, of all people, which presented itself as a data protection party for years, suddenly seems to be completely indifferent to the right to one’s own data in the digital age. [And I’m pretty sure that their own data will be protected or even collected. After all, “quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”]

Wissing’s cabinet colleague Robert Habeck (Greens) was also a guest at the summit — and raved about Orwellian technologies. In a refugee camp he visited in Jordan, he discovered a payment concept that impressed him: “People pay with an iris scan.” By reading the highly sensitive biometric feature, “what they took” is simply debited. Habeck was really enthusiastic — also about tests in supermarkets in Western countries, where “a face ID scan” takes place when you go in. The customer then takes products from the shelves, with everything being recorded digitally. The computer calculates the total and then reorders immediately. “It’s not crazy Spökenkiekerei [a clairvoyant who can only foresee misery],” said the minister, in North German, so enthusiastically. The Green politician then emphasized that many current social problems and crises, including climate change and pandemics, could and must be answered digitally. “Data protection is not an end in itself,” said the Green politician Janosch Dahmen, known for his uncompromising commitment to mandatory Corona vaccination. [Are they really that ideologically retarded, or are they just simply EVIL? Personally, I’d say they’re BOTH.]

The Closing of the Imanskolan

The following news video from Sweden is not current; it originally aired sometime last spring.

A Muslim-themed school in Uppsala known as the Imanskolan was shut down after its pupils were exposed to “radicalization”, due to their being taught in a parallel society. The interesting thing about the story is that the decision to close the school was taken based on input from Säpo, the Swedish Security Police. Säpo investigated the school and reported its findings to the Inspectorate of Swedish Schools, which moved to close the Imanskolan.

The video features interviews with Maged Ashkar, a member of the administrative board for Imanskolan in Uppsala, and Fredrika Brickman, the head of the Inspectorate of Schools.

Excess Mortality in Germany, Part Four

The following video is the fourth of five segments from a recent press conference called by the AfD (Alternative für Deutschland, Alternative for Germany) to discuss the concerning increase in excess mortality in Germany, as shown by multiple sources of official statistics. Previously: Part One, Part Two, Part Three.

Tom Lausen is a data analyst who is also a programmer and has been doing data research on the Corona “pandemic” and the effects — as suggested by statistics on mortality — of the experimental mRNA treatment intended to mitigate the effects of infection with the virus. In this installment Mr. Lausen gets into the meat of the data. The displayed charts and graphs show the sudden spikes in mortality beginning in the first quarter of 2021 for “sudden and unexpected deaths”, “deaths from unknown causes”, and various other categories, included all deaths combined. The larger scandal is the official obstruction and foot-dragging by government bodies specifically charged with examining and collating the data on the adverse effects of vaccination.
