Liza Rosen @LizaRosen0000: Muslims all over Europe are freaking out after Sweden made a historic and courageous decision: it will no longer use the term “Islamophobia,” coined by the Muslim Brotherhood, because it is a politically manipulated concept aimed at silencing criticism of Islam. Swedish Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard announced that her government will push the European Union and the United Nations to stop using this fraudulent term. The concept of “Islamophobia” was deliberately designed to equate legitimate criticism of Islamic doctrine with racism. It was weaponized to shut down discussion about core Islamic texts containing commands to wage...

A ratbag group of cop-hating Black Lives Matters activists were handed the floor at City Hall as they launched a campaign to block extra funding to hire more police in Los Angeles. Everyday Angelenos were left frustrated as they were locked out of the first public budget hearing — while lefty activists led by Black Lives Matter–Los Angeles and People’s Budget LA were given 20 minutes to air their radical views. At stake is the city’s $14.9 billion budget, the single most consequential decision City Hall makes each year. The group, led Friday by Melina Abdullah, demanded the council shift...

Iran’s decades-long bluff—built on terror proxies, nuclear brinkmanship, and Western appeasement—collapsed the moment it faced direct force and a changed geopolitical landscape. How does the supposedly most fearsome regime in the violent Middle East now find itself on the verge of an utter economic and military collapse? Iran’s half-century-long deadly terrorist reputation peaked with the October 7, 2023, massacre in Israel that it helped fund and coordinate. Iran’s terrorist ambitions of running the Middle East had accelerated after witnessing Joe Biden’s cognitive decline and his administration’s distancing itself from Israel. Biden’s humiliation by a series of Chinese slights and the...

Whoopi Goldberg: This will come as interesting surprise to everyone. Do you know who just lost one of his biggest supporters over the ongoing war in Iran? Far-right commentator Tucker Carlson says he regrets ever helping to put you-know-who in the White House. Take a look. You and I and everyone else who supported him, you wrote speeches for him, I campaigned for him. I mean, we're implicated in this, for sure. Yes. It's not enough to say, well, I changed my mind, or like, oh, this is bad, I'm out. It's like in very small ways, but in real...

Over one in every four people in Germany, or nearly 22 million, now have an “immigration history”, according to the country’s national statistician. A report from the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) has found that the proportion of people living in Germany with an immigration history rose by 0.5 per cent last year to a record 26.3 per cent. The category is defined as someone who has either immigrated to Germany since 1950 or who has two parents that came to the country as migrants. This is significantly stricter than the previously used category of “migration background”, which is defined in...

Let's take a look at "Modern Germany". Ahmad lives with his 2 wives and 6 children in a taxpayer funded house. He says he's looking for 2 more wives and wants to have 20 children. Ahmad is illiterate and does not work.

Perhaps the only thing worse than Tucker Carlson’s deranged understanding of history is his deranged understanding of theology.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Sunday urged the EU to end its association agreement with Israel.

Sánchez has emerged as one of Israel’s most vocal critics in the EU. He accused Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of committing genocide in Gaza and denounced the joint U.S.-Israel strikes...

PA turns Hitler’s ally into a Palestinian icon. The PA is sending a clear message: Its ongoing practice of rewarding and glorifying Palestinian terrorist mass murderers is neither new nor superficial.

Many countries and leaders who aligned with Adolf Hitler or maintained Nazi ties during World War II have since expressed shame and apologized. Others have tried to deny or obscure those connections. But none openly celebrates its links to Hitler or...

Hey, y'all down there in Texas! Did you know that the Alamo really was Islamic? That stunner was included in a letter to state education officials warning them against the "false history" that some interests are trying to inject into the state's history. "It has come to our attention that an extensive lobbying effort is underway to have the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) alter curriculum standards in a way that would diminish American and Texas history," Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, and other Texas Republicans wrote to education officials. "The petitioners' efforts claim that Islam influenced our founding, culture,...

Judge Khomeini’s state of mind for yourself: Since June 1981, according to estimates published by the Iranian resistance group known as the People’s Mojahedin, the Khomeini regime has put to death some 90,000 Iranians who don’t subscribe to its views. Another 140,000 have been incarcerated. Thousands of adolescent Iranian boys died in the recent war with Iraq when Khomeini asked them to clear mine fields by running across them. The children were promised they would be martyred and go directly to heaven. Iranian women who dare appear in public unveiled or who otherwise defy Khomeini’s standards of modesty are routinely...
