Just When You Thought It Couldn’t Get Any More Vile

I normally don’t offer much commentary on the translations I present here, but in this case I feel obligated to state my opinion.

The following report concerns a recent incident in France where a culture-enriching woman made vile jokes about the incineration of Jewish babies by Hamas. The French government is responding by initiating legal action against the woman who recorded the appalling video.

I don’t favor any government action restricting free speech, no matter how vile that speech may be. If it is not a direct incitement to imminent violence, then let a thousand flowers bloom.

It’s useful to know who holds these vile sentiments, because then they can be shunned and shamed. Or, if — as is currently the case — such vile behavior has become sufficiently mainstream so as to be immune to the shunning-and-shaming process, well, we need to know that, too.

Cracking down such disgusting remarks elevates the speaker to the status of martyr (of both the Islamic and Leftist flavors) and paradoxically helps reduce the visibility of the vileness involved.

Let the devotees of the prophet utter their nasty jokes. Then we know who it is that we are dealing with.

Israel-Hamas war: A woman jokes about a Jewish baby burned in an oven — Gerald Darmanin takes legal action

The video, disseminated on Instagram, of a woman joking about a Jewish baby burned in an oven by Hamas, shocked internet users. The minister of the Interior takes legal action.

Her video, disseminated on Instagram, had shocked many internet users. After having joked about a Jewish baby that had reportedly been placed in an oven during the Hamas terrorist attack against Israel on October 7, the minister of Interior, Gerald Darmanin, announced that he had referred it to the national prosecutor’s office in Paris, Friday, November 3, Beauvau [Ministry of the Interior] stated to Le Figaro.

“On the story of the baby that was put in the oven, I wonder if they added salt, pepper, if they added thyme…” Thursday, November 2, this young woman, under the pseudonym “Haneia Nakei”, joked in a story posted on Instagram about the fate of an Israeli baby that was reportedly put in an oven, in reference to the unprecedented attack by the Islamist terrorist organization Hamas.

In an ironic tone, the young woman continued, “What was the accompaniment? Don’t you wonder?” On her video was added the inscription, ironically, “Israel, I love you”. A few seconds later, a childish voice from outside the frame states, “ The accompaniment with the baby’s leg was French fries with a ketchup and mayonnaise sauce.” “We marinated it with salt, thyme, and barbecue sauce,” in an amused tone.

Gerald Darmain referred it to the national prosecutor’s office in Paris on Friday, November 3, “under Article 40 of the Criminal Code,” states the Interior Ministry to Le Figaro.

Another complaint from Deputy Meyer Habib

The Israeli ambassador to France stated on X, condemning “with the utmost firmness, the filthy denialist and anti-Semitic remarks of the young woman.”

For his part, Meyer Habib, LR Deputy for the 8th District for French living abroad, also announced that he had filed a complaint for “support of terrorism” with the National Anti-Terrorist Prosecutor’s Office.

Report From Sderot: Three Weeks

Tanks have rolled into Gaza: the latest from MC.

Report From Sderot: Three Weeks

by MC

It is hard for most people to assimilate that ‘moderate’ Muslims are either playacting, or they are bad Muslims who do not respect the Koran, Hadith or Sunna.

It is also hard for them to understand that most people are brainwashed, some by their cultural norms, others by exposure to incessant TV propaganda. Until my early twenties, I was a socialist because I knew no other influence. I had never met a true conservative and my pro-Nazi aunt and uncle were Nazi socialists — very confusing until I realized that the socialism in National Socialism was not only real but substantial.

Muslim National Socialism gets an easy ride in the USA. Islam looked at the stupidity of ‘anti-Semitism’ and groups like the ADL who picked up on every possible nuance of (possibly accidental) Jew abuse, and squealed vociferously. They decided that they, too, needed to create their own parallel dialogue in order to give themselves victim status, and to distract idiotic attention away from Islamic warmongering, violence and terrorism.

The gullible fell for it, hook, line and stinker. ‘Islamophobia’ came into the world in a miasma of lies and deceits. People who fear Islam are not phobic: Islam is currently engaged in about 50 conflicts around the world, and in nearly all of them the Muslims are the aggressors, the occupiers and the persecutors. Islam is a religion of war, occupation and forced conversion at sword point.

Yesterday evening the bombardment of Gaza intensified, and it appears the tanks went in.

But also, the road blocks around Sderot have disappeared. The IDF are satisfied that all the terrorists have now been rounded up.

It is sad to see that some 50% of Americans between the ages of 18 and 24 support Hamas and the Palestinians. Strange, because the Palestine Authority hates Hamas, even if it falls short of openly criticising them. Isn’t ignorance bliss!

Back to the propaganda: one of the problems is that when the government lies to ‘we the people’ it undermines society in a big way, and support for Hamas at the student level can be regarded as a huge conspiracy theory based upon the idea that the ‘Palestinians’ were forcibly ejected from their own country.

The Palestine Liberation Organisation was an invention of the KGB in 1963. Before that, Palestinians were Jews born and raised in Palestine Mandate territory. Between the wars, as a consequence of the defeat of the Ottomans and the removal of their colonies in the Levant, Britain was made responsible for the development of the mandated territory as a Jewish homeland. But Britain had no intention of allowing Jewish home rule because Ben Gurion and Weizmann were proto-communists, and Israel was strategically placed as the Doorway to India. They gave 78% of the territory mandated for Jews to the ‘Palestinians’ and set the Hashemites (the Lawrence of Arabia crowd) over them.

Britain then populated the remaining mandate Palestine with Muslims from the surrounding lands instead of the Jews they were mandated to settle. My wife’s grandfather’s brother from Baghdad tried to emigrate to the new ‘Jewish’ homeland but was rejected by the British (circa 1933). He apparently went across to the other queue where Muslims were being processed (in Arabic) and gained entry without difficulty.

The Muslim Underground Surfaces, Part I

Seneca III sends his latest report from the Emirate of al-Britannia.

The Muslim Underground Surfaces

Part I: Saturday 28th October 2023

by Seneca III

As I write (1200 hrs GMT, October 28) large crowds of Muslims of every flavour, together with other aficionados of the Demented Slaves of Allah, are gathering in Londonistan, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and probably in other smaller locations that have also been infected with the Religion of Death and Atrocity virus.

This clandestine occupation has been long in the making and, relative to Israel’s recent experience, it has been a quieter process in terms of outright violence here in Britain. We have had, of course, the 7/7/2005 bombings in London, the Manchester Arena bombing in 2/5/2017 and the Satanic Verses debacle accompanied by its global fatwa and book-burnings, plus the child grooming (raping) gangs operating with impunity in their British-occupied territories, but not with the real feral mass insanity and bloodlust that Israel is dealing with today, and which we will be faced with in the near future, and should see a revealing glimpse of today and cannot afford to ignore.

The grim reality is that Islam travels in a Trojan Horse named Diversity, Inclusion and Equity, i.e. DIE, a phrase that acronymically, albeit accidentally, perfectly describes what the future holds for us unless we indigenous Caucasians eliminate it and them once and for all.

We are very close to the edge now, and it comes as no surprise that many British Jews have travelled to Israel because they feel far safer in places such as Tel Aviv where they are under constant aerial attack than they do in London and other European cities.

[1330 hrs: Gatherings increasing in volume in Londonistan and Birmingham. No surprises there in either case, of course; both have long been fully occupied and can no longer be considered British in any way, simply festering cesspits full of primitives. This is a photo of Gaza, not Birmingham…

…unfortunately.]

Mosques in the UK: The number of mosques in the UK varies depending on the source and the definition of a mosque. However, a reasonable estimate is that there are around 1,800 to 2,000 mosques. These mosques serve about three and a half million Muslims, who make up about 5% of the UK population. The most common size for a mosque in the UK is between 101 to 200 people. This figure does not include the many secret mosques in residential properties established without planning permission from the relevant local authorities. I speak from personal experience here: seven years ago, an extended Muslim family moved into a small bungalow located on the corner of a quiet cul-de-sac in my town. This move was carried out quietly and in the depths of night. Subsequently they applied for planning permission for some small additions/alterations inside the house which, in fact, was not owned by the applicants at all but by one of the two sizeable mosques located in our county town twenty-five miles away.

During the time the local authority was processing this application, the ownership came to light and the fact that this application had not been submitted by the actual owners of the property as is required by law, but by their tenants. The application was then adjusted and resubmitted accordingly and later approved.

The deceit did not end there, however. Neighbours later noticed that a large extension taking up most of the garden had been secretly built in the rear and that on Fridays the cul-de-sac was clogged by out-of-town cars. They complained to the local Town Council who in turn passed it onto the District Council for resolution. The DC finally sent a building inspector to look into the situation and what he found was an eye-opener even for this cynical old observer of Islam.

Report From Sderot: Day 18

MC sends this update as a ground invasion of Gaza looms.

Report From Sderot: Day 18

by MC

It is time we started once more to look at life and death as Yah sees it, not as a ‘snowflake’ sees it.

In 1915, the first Kitchener Divisions were flung into the maelstrom of the battle of Loos. On the first and second days the BEF had almost broken through, but they ran out of men.

The 21st and 24th divisions had just arrived in France. They were the spearhead of the volunteers of August and September of 1914; they were trained but unblooded. They were also thirty miles behind the lines because General French did not want them in the battle. But Haig was desperate, and forced them to march, overnight, without food or water, to advance over the ‘Field of Corpses’ In their lines they walked/marched towards the German machine guns, and died, well, most of them.

Haig went on the defensive and managed to saddle French with the butchery bill. Loos set the pattern for the rest of the war, and also the debacle of 1st July 1916 at the Somme. Particularly where the “Sheffield Pals” marched towards the almost undamaged wire and machine guns at Serre.


The Sheffield Pals on parade outside Sheffield Midland Station

The WW1 ‘Tommy’ was not particularly religious, but on the whole believed in life after death and going to a better place. His main fear at places like Loos was letting his pals down (through cowardice, etc.). On the whole he placed his trust in his God and advanced towards the enemy trenches. He did his duty.

Israelis are very similar, and on the whole, put their trust and reliance on God and their rifles. They will, if asked, advance over the open ground in the face of sustained enemy fire.

The IDF advancing on Gaza will have much the same problem as at Hulloch and Serre. The British in 1917 were repulsed twice in front of Gaza. Eventually Allenby, taking over from Chetwode, decided to attack Beer’sheva instead of Gaza and encircle Gaza by marching along the Wadi Shikma, a tourist route that still exists today.


Nahal Shikma where the Wadi Shikma track crosses the Nahal (stream). In the wet season this can become a raging torrent in just a few minutes, 5 feet deep and lethal.

The invading IDF troops must advance over 2km of flat ground with little to no cover. They will have tanks and APCs of various sorts, but Hamas have antitank missiles…

Report From Sderot: Day 15, and Hamas is Winning

MC sends the latest grim news from the border with Gaza.


Fortifications at Kibbutz Revivim

Report From Sderot: Day 15, and Hamas is Winning

by MC

Sad to say, Hamas is wining. They are winning because whatever Israel does, the world hates Jews and regards them with deep, deep suspicion. They will say nice words, and do all they can to make sure Israel cannot win.

The Lutheran Church openly despises Jews and supports Hamas’ atrocities because they believe Israelis have kept Gaza penned up for decades (they forgot to tell us that the Egyptians too, have closed their border with Gaza). Martin Luther hated Jews, so it is inevitable, I suppose.

The Ivy League hates Jews, and will take no action against students and faculty supporting Hamas terrorism.

The Roman Catholic Church, and especially its revolutionary Pope, appears to have a very ambivalent attitude towards Jews. Even after Vatican II declared that the Jews were not “Christ Killers” that doctrine persists. One must asked oneself why Jesus was tried (by the Herodian ‘Jewish’ elite in the middle of the night). Was it to ensure that the average ‘Jew in the street’ who supported Yahushua (Jesus) was presented with a ‘fait accompli’ come the next morning?

And those awful left-wing Jews who are so arrogant and ignorant. Do they not realize that they are next on the butchery shopping list? The DNC needs their money, and it is probably the only reason that Brandon is making a lot of noise (and screwing the process through his inaction).

Hamas is winning because of the hostages. They are the ace of trumps, providing a lever that can be twisted and turned to squeeze White House policy any way but win.

My son has now been at the Northern Border for two weeks, all of it on the front line. In civilian life he is one of an elite squad clearing mines, of which there are many in Israel going back to 1916. Sometimes he brings back little bits of military antiquity.

But two weeks in the front line without relief is not good news in military terms, and Sleepy Joe seems to be insisting that Israel hold back on its proposed invasion of Gaza. Ostensibly this is to enable further hostage negotiations. With 200+ hostages, that could mean that he never needs to authorise the invasion, and we all sit comfortably and do nothing.

President Jefferson was faced with the same problem. The Barbary Pirates (also Muslim fundamentalists) were commerce-raiding and taking hostages/slaves in exactly the same way as Hamas (they had read the same book, of course). But President Jefferson was a man of integrity and action. He created the USMC and put them ashore at Tripoli. The Barbary Pirates quickly surrendered. Muslims have no stomach for a real fight against hardened troops. Martell and Sobieski demonstrated this.

The Muslim way is to attack a soft target and brutalize the victims in a way that will intimidate all those in the immediate area, such that they will surrender without a fight. This is all chronicled in the Koran. The book of war, occupation and submission.

Hamas Sexual Abuse of Israeli Women Follows Islamic Doctrine as Night Follows Day

The following report by Clare Lopez was published earlier this month by Sharia TipSheet.

Women Under Sharia

Hamas Sexual Abuse of Israeli Women Follows Islamic Doctrine as Night Follows Day

by Clare M. Lopez

In recognition of the horrific HAMAS jihad massacre of Israeli civilians on 7 October 2023, this set of links will be dedicated to highlighting the barbaric way that these savages abused women. This is not to detract from the equally barbaric treatment of the elderly, men, children, and even babies, but to note how women and girls in particular were assaulted in a sexual way. Unfortunately, as Robert Spencer has pointed out in recent interviews, this is entirely in keeping with Quranic references that legitimize polygamy, sex slavery, and the taking of sex slaves as spoils of jihad.

Among those references are the following.

  • “And if you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four. But if you fear that you will not be just, then [marry only] one or those your right hand possesses. That is more suitable that you may not incline [to injustice].” (Q 4:3)
  • “Also forbidden are married women—except female captives in your possession…” (Q 4:24)
  • “Certainly will the believers have succeeded… And they who guard their private parts — Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed.” (Q 23-1-6)
  • “O Prophet! We have made lawful for you your wives to whom you have paid their full dowries as well as those bondwomen in your possession, whom Allah has granted you… We have ordained for the believers in relation to their wives and those bondwomen in their possession. As such, there would be no blame on you. And Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Q 33:50)

Now here are the links to statements & reports of HAMAS jihadi behavior in keeping with these Quranic Surah.

Reality Bleeds to Death as the Ummah Celebrates

The view from Blighty, as sent by our English correspondent Seneca III.

Reality Bleeds to Death as the Ummah Celebrates

by Seneca III

In this once green and pleasant land where reality and truth are now under attack from every quarter there are few voices brave enough to speak out publicly. One of them is (was?) the relatively new Broadcaster GB News, which is rapidly overtaking the long-standing BBC in viewership. Since its inception GBN has had to exist under the axe of impending closure (i.e., having its broadcasting licence withdrawn by the Quangonistas of Ofcom, the Broadcasting Regulator staffed almost exclusively by ex-BBC apparatchiks who are determined to protect their mentor’s tax-funded monopoly).

As a consequence, GB News has to tread very carefully indeed, particularly with what it posts in the comments section below each programme.

As I write, the programme still being presented by the charming and erudite Emily Carver is dealing with the horrendous ‘demonstrations’ that took place in several major British cities yesterday, where howling mobs of Muslims of various flavours, including ‘Palestinians’ (to whom we have granted asylum, residency, free accommodation and endless handouts), vented their blood lust, both verbally and with banners, and called for another holocaust, essentially, the extermination of all Jews in general and Israelis and Israel in particular.

Our governing classes have since postured and snivelled in the public media, both broadcast and in print, in essence claiming that that these savages haven’t actually broken any laws and that is why the police were extremely limited in any actions that they could take.

Make of that what you will. I present it is as the background to the short story which follows and which illustrates what a collection of angst-ridden wet wipes some of us are becoming. Aux armes, mes amis!

To continue. I have an old friend, not just old in friendship but older in years as well, which is quite remarkable in view of my increasing decrepitude. That said, he is an acute observer of our troubling times, and occasionally posts in the comments section following GB News programmes. This morning he attempted to post a comment re. the Emily Carver presentation, but was knocked back twice without explanation, despite having asked why it had been knocked back in the first case.

He received no reply, so I will reproduce his comment below as a public service, but first I will tell you that he asked me if I could hazard a guess as to why this had happened. All I could offer was to suggest that his comment was both reasonable and correct in all particulars but that such things no longer carry any weight in public discourse, for the fearful and the treacherous now have full control of the levers of power and the mainstream media are fully complicit therewith.

Here is what he said:

The Gaza War — No Worries

Our Dutch correspondent H. Numan sends his analysis of the ongoing war in Gaza between Hamas and Israel.

The Gaza war — no worries

by H. Numan

We’re hearing very bad news from our highly biased media. Sure, they don’t (openly) approve of Hamas’ attack, but Israel had it coming! Of course they report everything. But they’d much rather publish unproven accusations about Israel than proven war crimes by Hamas. One of the latest hoaxes that goes around is that the war might spread to the entire region. That’s a real New York sandwich (baloney)!

All support for Hamas or the Palestinians rests on woefully naïve presumptions. For example: “Israel should respond proportionately”. Really? When did that ever happen? The US fleet should have sailed from Pearl Harbor, and sunk a number of Japanese battleships? That’s ranting nonsense. It’s not just ranting, it goes much further. It’s insane. If Israel should respond proportionately, they have to intentionally rape and kill Palestinian babies, torture Palestinian women and children, and intentionally kill 1,600 civilians. Then call it a day. Anyone using that argument has no idea at all what he or (usually she) is talking about. I don’t doubt that many more Palestinians are being killed right now, and will be killed. That’s what happens in war. The difference is the intention. The Israeli army takes great pride and care in trying to reduce the number of victims, while Palestinians take as much pride and care in maximizing the number of victims. As far as I know, the Israeli army is the only army that sends SMS to occupants of a building that’s going to be bombed.

Another unreasonable worry is Iran. “Israel has to restrain itself, otherwise Iran might have to act.” Really? With what? They are already involved up to their eyeballs. Just about every weapon, explosive or piece of munition used by Hamas comes from Iran. They can’t get any more involved unless they send in the Iranian army! There are three very good reasons why Iran will not do that.

1.   It’s a pretty long march to get there. Walking, driving, flying. Doesn’t matter. The Iranian army isn’t capable of doing that.
2.   Supporting the most vicious beasts since WW2 is one thing, actively siding with them quite another. The moment Iran openly sides with Hamas and declares war on Israel, they lose whatever support they had worldwide. And become the real pariah of the Middle East.
3.   Iran jumping in means that America has to jump in too. Something that worries Tehran a lot more than anything else. All America has to do is precision bomb the oil distribution facilities in the Persian Gulf and Iran is out of money and out of the war. Even better: America can do that with no US casualties, and very few on the Iranian side.
 

“Israel has to be careful of Hezbollah!” warn progressive liberals. You can read also: fashionable anti-Semites. Hezbollah is a terrorist organization in Lebanon, it is not the Lebanese government. Israel made it very clear to the Lebanese government that they would be personally held responsible if Hezbollah goes to war. Personal means exactly that. The people who actually are in charge. Not institutions, no letters of complaint. They themselves. There is no love lost between Lebanon and Israel, but this warning is something that the Lebanese government takes pretty seriously.

“Israel is depopulating Gaza, and drives them into the Sinai to die!” — another silly claim from our progressive media. They continue by insinuating Egypt is complicit. Wrong. Egypt HATES Hamas and wants nothing to do with Gaza. Nothing at all. Except using it for target practice, if that were possible. Before the Israeli withdrawal they offered control of it to Egypt — which Egypt refused.

Report From Sderot: Day 11

MC is still in Sderot, and the missiles from Gaza are still falling on the city.

Have you noticed that the tide of public opinion is changing, as it usually does, from all-out support to the usual cries of “don’t hurt (Muslim) civilians”?

When Hamas hides behind civilians, then civilian casualties are Hamas’ responsibility. Except, it seems, where Israel and Jews are concerned.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken now appears to be setting conditions.

In a recent X (twitter) catfight two conservatives had a scrap over the fate of Harvard students who signed that infamous letter of support for massacring jooz. “Silly ignorant students,” said one. “Malicious anti-Semites,” said the other.

The real point is that there need to be consequences if freedom of speech is to be viable. If one supports a holocaust-like event, then one is probably a Nazi of some kind. In my experience, Nazis remain Nazis until terminated.

The Left, including Nazism, is a nasty political disease that has brought cruelty and mayhem beyond belief to this world. My wife’s sister has emailed us three times so far to express her support for Hamas against Israeli ‘apartheid’.

Most people are totally ignorant of the inner workings of the original apartheid in South Africa, and the dire consequences of its dismantling.

Apartheid means separation in Afrikaans (die taal), and was an experiment in trying to get differing cultures to live in harmony. It was partially successful until the socialists got hold of it. They turned it into a catastrophe for all concerned.

For example, the African tribesman straight from his kraal expects to be able to defecate anywhere there is room to squat (a bit like San Francisco). This behaviour is not acceptable for the white European-based culture, as they have to deal with the mess. Apartheid dictated that high walls make good neighbours and that these cultural points of friction could be mitigated by ‘separation’.

Unfortunately for South Africa it became all about skin colour, not culture, and the rest is history.

Israel is the most (skin colour) un-racist country I have ever been in. As immigrants from the UK, we stand out as ‘white’ (Anglos), and most Israelis assume that I am American.

Muslim Israelis have exactly the same rights under Basic Law as I have. However, in the areas supervised by the PA (and Hamas) under the Oslo Accords, the same is not true.

Shootout at a Café in Schaerbeek

Abdeselam Lassoued, the failed asylum seeker identified as the Islamic terrorist who killed two Swedes yesterday in Brussels, was tracked down and shot to death today by Belgian police. Mr. Lassoued had gone to ground in a café in the culturally enriched district of Schaerbeek, but police found him there. He still had the murder weapon with him, and pulled it on the officers, at which point they shot and killed him.

Many thanks to Gary Fouse for translating excerpts from this article from 7sur7:

According to a Brussels correspondent for the British Sky News, Lassoued was recognized around 8 in the morning as he was seated on a bus in the center of Schaerbeek. He reportedly took refuge in a coffee shop in Schaerbeek. At that time, he still had his weapon on him, as well as a bag of clothes. The coffee shop is located less than three kilometers from the place where he had perpetrated a massacre a few hours earlier.

He calmly entered the cafe. A short time later, police managed to neutralize him. He was reportedly recognized by a young man, according to sources close to the investigation. The customer was in doubt and called his father to get confirmation. The father calmly went out to signal a police patrol. The police entered the coffee shop and saw that Lassoued was indeed sitting calmly at a table. He drew his weapon. The police neutralized him at 7:52 with a shot before he could fire at them.

Jihad Against the Swedes in Brussels

Looks like the teddy bears and candles will be out in force tonight in Brussels and Stockholm: a young mujahid on a scooter with a gun has slaughtered two Swedes outside a stadium during a soccer match in Brussels. Mainstream media outlets will be doing their best to avoid mentioning the “Allahu Akhbar” aspect of the unfortunate incident, as well as the fact that the youthful militant was taking revenge on Swedes in the name of Allah for the burning of the Koran.

The following brief video shows the alleged attacker claiming responsibility for the murders. He seems to believe he killed three Swedish infidels, but the third shooting victim reportedly survived.

Many thanks to the anonymous translator (directly from the Arabic), and to Vlad Tepes and RAIR Foundation for the subtitling:

Below are excerpts from a preliminary English-language report from France24 about the evening’s events in Brussels:

Two Swedes Killed in Brussels Shooting

Brussels (AFP) — Two Swedish nationals were shot dead in Brussels late Monday by a suspect who remains at large, in an attack the Belgian prime minister described as “terrorism”.

The gunman fled on a scooter and Belgium’s security observatory raised its terror alert to level four or “very serious” — the highest — for Brussels, and level three nationally.

Belgium’s premier, Alexander De Croo, said the shooting had targeted Swedes — the attack came just before a Belgium-Sweden soccer match — and European leaders were quick to offer their solidarity.

In a video posted on social media, a man identifying himself as the attacker said “he was inspired by the Islamic State” (IS) extremist group, the spokesman for the federal prosecutor’s office, Eric Van Duyse, said on the LN24 news channel.

“I have just offered my sincere condolences to the Swedish PM following tonight’s harrowing attack on Swedish citizens in Brussels,” De Croo posted on social media.

“Our thoughts are with the families and friends who lost their loved ones. As close partners the fight against terrorism is a joint one.”

Several Belgian media outlets said the two individuals killed were wearing football shirts belonging to the Swedish national team ahead of the game between Sweden and Belgium.

The Group F European qualifier match between the two countries was suspended at half-time “due to incidents,” the Belgian side posted on social media accounts.

Journalists in the Roi Baudouin stadium in Brussels said around 35,000 fans were being kept in the ground, and the UEFA website said the match had been halted at half-time at one goal apiece.

Belgian media reported that Swedish players did not want to continue the game after the attack.

The Belgium crisis centre said on social media that a third individual had been targeted in the attack but said the person was not in a critical condition.

A video of a man speaking Arabic and claiming responsibility for the shooting has been circulating on social media.

The federal prosecutor in charge of terrorism cases launched an investigation. Police are only investigating one suspect at the moment based on preliminary information.

Welcome to Hamasburg


Revolting: This woman celebrated, according to her own statements, the Hamas massacres in Israel: “This is good, very good.”

The following article and video report on official efforts to track down and punish a Muslima in the German city of Hamburg who expressed her support for and celebration of Hamas in a media interview.

As an American, I consider it anathema to suppress people who state their support of this or that repugnant political movement. Isn’t it better to find out who holds disgusting opinions? Besides, it is the very essence of freedom of speech that even appalling sentiments are protected from sanction by the state.

But that’s the way an American thinks, not the way a German thinks.

Many thanks to Nash Montana for translating this article from Bild, and also the embedded video:

Police are looking for woman who celebrated Hamas murders

Hamburg — The statements are so loathsome that they make your blood boil.

A woman — obviously a Muslim — gave a statement to an NDR camera team near the Steindamm at Hamburg’s main train station.

“This is good, very good. I am happy that they (Hamas terrorists) accomplished such a thing. We celebrated at home.”

And as she says this, she laughs and grins. She couldn’t get any more contemptuous. Other respondents with migration backgrounds uttered similar sentiments in front of a rolling camera.

What will politicians do so that these kinds of things will NOT happen on our streets anymore?

Apart from appeals and assertions (“We stand on the side of Israel”), unfortunately not a lot.

Hamburg’s minister of the interior Andy Grote (56, SPD): “Whoever willingly advocates and endorses this kind of contemptuous and complete lack of humanity type of barbarian behavior by Hamas or is excited about this, there is no tolerance in our society for these people. The cheering and celebrating of the massacre of Jews by Hamas is unbearable, and there is no room for it on our streets. We will therefore proceed consequently with appropriate actions. Authorities will exhaust all legal latitudes for future assembly applications.”

The department of security at the State office of criminal investigation is investigating the woman on suspicion of sedition and hate speech. It is not yet clear if the woman has yet been identified.

Sedition means: A person will be indictable under it if a he or she openly call for hate or acts of violence, against strangers, against people of different skin color or people who have different political opinions. The degree of penalty lies somewhere between monetary penalties and five years in prison.
