Enricher vs. Enricher Knife-Play in Padua

Posted on by

As I’ve noted frequently in the past, culture-enrichers don’t restrict their stabbing activities solely to infidel victims. They’re generally equal-opportunity knifemen, especially when drug deals are part of the mix, as seems to be the case in this news report from the Italian city of Padua.

Culture-Enriching Terror Plot Foiled in Flanders

Posted on by

Eight “youths” in Belgium who had been “radicalized” were arrested for planning terror attacks, and may face stiff sentences if convicted, possibly as long as six months in a detention center. (OK, so I made that last part up, but still…)

Many thanks to Gary Fouse for translating this article from the Flemish daily Het Nieuwsblad:

After frustrating two possible attacks: Teenaged suspect arrested three years ago for planning terror attack

In two different cases in Antwerp and Brussels, a group of radicalized youths has been arrested, and thus two attacks may have been foiled. Eight people are under arrest. One of the suspects is a 19-year-old Kosovar, who was making plans at the end of 2020 to carry out an attack on a police station.

For some time the Antwerp Federal Judicial Police had their eye on a group of radicalized youths. According to our information, it concerns a group of adults, among others, a man from Merksem, a man from Duerne, and a girlfriend of one of them. They are reportedly young men who, in a short space of time, became radicalized within the radical Islamist environment.

At least one of them, according to the federal prosecutor’s office, had concrete, advanced plans to carry out an attack. The group was reportedly searching for weapons. The target was not yet determined, according to the federal prosecutor’s office. Justice Minister Vincent Van Quickenborne (Open VLD-Open Flemish Liberals and Democrats party) describes it as “a plot against government entities”. Whether weapons have actually been found, the justice authorities do not say.

Oostkantons

The group was in contact on social media with a man from Eupen in the Oostkantons [Eastern Kantons-region in East Belgium]. The 19-year-old S.B., as a 17-year-old in October of 2020, was arrested together with a 16-year-old friend, on the order of the federal prosecutor’s office. The duo were in contact with another radicalized person in Austria. They had sworn allegiance to the Islamic State in a video, in which they made plans to carry out an attack on a police station in Luik.

The two were then sent to a juvenile institution by a juvenile court judge.

S.B. was currently free under supervision, but he was in a radicalized environment in Verviers. This time, he was reportedly not the key figure in a planned attack, but he may have inspired the group in Antwerp.

Intoxicated Culture-Enriching Ecdysiast Terrifies a Church in Monza

Posted on by

A drunken Moroccan migrant with exhibitionist tendencies caused consternation in an Italian church by berating the priest and nuns and disparaging the statuary and then began to take off his clothes. Fortunately, he was subdued by police and parishioners before he could expose his junk. It was eventually determined that he has a long rap sheet, and will be deported.

Fretting Over the Pronouns of a Mass Murderer

Posted on by

I assume that everyone already knows who Audrey Elizabeth Hale was, and what she did at the Covenant School in Nashville on Monday morning.

What I find interesting (and entertaining) is the way the legacy media have been tying themselves into pretzels over the shooter’s pronouns. Yesterday I heard one newscaster apologize for his station’s misgendering of the killer during its early coverage of the massacre, before it became known that she was a he. I wish I’d saved a link to that video; I don’t even remember which network it was.

I just read an article in The Tennessean — which is well-known for its progressive editorial slant — that couldn’t make up its mind how to handle the issue. Mostly it just dodged the dilemma by not using any pronouns, simply referring to her as “Hale… Hale… Hale…” over and over again. It was awkward.

However, the writers of the article (it takes at least two to put together a news report for The Tennessean) slipped up twice and said “she”, while on multiple other occasions calling her “he”.

They couldn’t make up their tiny minds.

I even saw one progressive contributor on a forum reprimanding other posters for misgendering the Killer Chick, reminding everyone how important it was, even in these sad circumstances, to use a creature’s preferred pronouns.

In the bright shining Utopia that is 21st-century America, you can’t make this [odiferous material] up.

Culture-Enriching Knife Rampage in Lisbon

Posted on by

An Afghan culture-enricher entered an Ismaili (Islamic) facility in the Portuguese capital today and stabbed two infidel women to death. He also wounded a university professor.

Many thanks to Gary Fouse for translating this article from the Portuguese daily Correio da Manhã:

Mariana and Farana, the two women who died in the attack at the Ismaili Center in Lisbon

March 28, 2023

It was around 11am when a man entered armed in the Ismaili Center and killed two persons and wounded a professor with a stab wound to the neck.

The fatal victims of the knife attack in the Ismaili Center in Lisbon are Mariana (24) and Farana (49). The mother of one of the fatal victims was at the scene early in the morning when she thought that her daughter was merely injured.

One of the victims, Mariana, was a graduate in political and international relations at the New Faculty of Social and Human Sciences in Lisbon.

Around 11am, an armed man entered the Ismaili Center when there was an English class in progress. The motives for the attack are unknown.

As a result of this attack, a professor was also injured, who received a stab wound in the neck. The victim made it to the Santa Maria Hospital on his own. The attacker, of Afghan nationality, frequented the center, where he was studying Portuguese, and was shot by the PSP (National Civil Police) and taken to the St. Joseph Hospital. The Correio da Manhã is aware that the attacker had already made threats to people in the center, including the dead victims.

No Easter Allowed!

Posted on by

Nasty WAYCISTS in a secondary school in Austria abused a Muslim student by exposing him to the symbols and practices of Easter. The horror!

Fortunately for the followers of Mohammed, school administrators intervened, and caused the classroom to be cleansed of all traces of Christianity, thereby making the school safe for Islam.

Many thanks to Hellequin GB for translating this article from eXXpress:

School cancels Easter tradition — out of consideration for non-Christians

The next incredible attack on our culture: In an AHS [Academic Secondary School] in Upper Austria, a teacher wanted to decorate the class with palm branches. A trip to the Easter market was also planned. A student’s father complained. With success: The school director then reprimanded his teacher for her “Christian fundamentalism”.

Niki Glattauer was a teacher and school principal himself. In the newspaper Heute he reports on an email that reached him from Upper Austria. “Are Palmkatzerln [palm fronds] fundamentalist, and an Easter market for schoolchildren completely unreasonable?” asked the teacher there.

The pupil M. was disturbed by the Christian customs

Shortly after the first palm branches adorned the classroom, the father of a student whose second-generation parents are from Bosnia got in touch. Glattauer quotes from the message in the school app: “Our child is very disturbed by the transformation of his classroom into a church. Even an Easter market is completely unreasonable for M. We will therefore keep our child at home for the time being.”

Principal calls teacher ‘insensitive’

But that’s not all. The teacher turned to her principal for support. But he stabbed her in the back, instead asserting that she had “acted insensitively” and asked her to remove the palm branches immediately. For “Christian fundamentalism” there is Holy Week.

Banksy’s Migrant Ferry Vessel Impounded

Posted on by

Most readers have probably heard of Banksy, the pseudonymous British graffiti artist who has been active on the hip art scene in England since the 1990s. Banksy’s street art is very trendy, and his graffiti works — some of which have required the removal of sections of wall where they were painted — are often sold at auction for millions of dollars.

Banksy is also an activist for various progressive causes, including that of the poor, poor Palestinians. In addition he has often expressed his sympathies for third-world Muslim immigrants.

Recently Banksy lent his artistic hand to the decoration of a refitted French naval vessel, the Louise Michel, which is now being used as a migrant-ferry boat. The artist lavished a lot of pink paint on the job, and included some of his signature stencils in the design.

Now the Louise Michel has been impounded by the Italian maritime authorities for hindering the coast guard in its performance of its duties. The bien-pensants are up in arms about this interference in their migrant operations, and have lodged protests with the Italian government.

The following Italian news video reports on the brouhaha over the Louise Michel. Many thanks to HeHa for the translation, and to Vlad Tepes and RAIR Foundation for the subtitling:
