Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, 25, had pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. The jury instead found the Syria-born man, guilty in Boulder District Court on 10 counts of first-degree murder. In Colorado, a first-degree murder conviction carries a mandatory sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole. Had Alissa been found not guilty by reason of insanity, he would have been sent to the state psychiatric hospital, with any release from that facility requiring a judge's approval. It was never in dispute that Alissa carried out the rampage .... Authorities said Alissa was armed with a legally...

Some weeks there’s not much of great importance. Others, like this week, there is almost too much to absorb, but in my view the key items are the destruction of the terrorist Hezb’allah organization, the vacuity of Kamala Harris and the media’s great efforts to glide her into office while hiding her agenda, the pernicious ruling class and why they have forfeited our trust, and lastly, the pending scandal which ties celebrities and key Democrats to sex trafficking and racketeering. Destruction of Hezb’allahAlmost four decades since Hezb’allah killed hundreds of Americans in the bombing of our barracks in Lebanon, the...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday condemned Israel over a series of explosions across Lebanon involving pagers that targeted members of militant group Hezbollah. Ocasio-Cortez, a vocal critic of Israel’s government amid its broader war in Gaza, weighed in following reports that Israel’s intelligence and military arms were behind Tuesday’s pager attack that killed a dozen people and injured several thousand. “This attack clearly and unequivocally violates international humanitarian law and undermines US efforts to prevent a wider conflict,” the New York Democrat wrote on social media platform X. “Congress needs a full accounting of the attack, including an answer...

Eygi was not a "human rights activist", because the organization she was a member of is not a human rights organization. Eygi came here as part of the activities of the 'International Solidarity Movement' (hereinafter ISM). The ISM organization claims that it advocates "non-violent resistance", but the exact opposite is true. Over the past 20 years, the organization and its members have published messages of support for actions such as violent riots on the border fence in Gaza; Throwing stones and shooting attacks against Israeli civilians; and recognition of the Palestinians' right to "resist in any way they choose", including...

Self-described “progressives” appear to be tiring of Kamala Harris’s effort to downplay her left-wing policies, and are reminding her that they do not want to be taken for granted as she tries to portray herself as a “moderate” candidate. While Harris told CNN last month, in her first and only media interview, that “my values have not changed,” Harris’s campaign has been telling the media that she no longer supports some of her most radical policies, such as canceling private health insurance, defunding the police, ending detention for illegal migrants, backing the “Green New Deal,” banning fracking, and other policies...

SAKAI, Ibaraki -- Halal lunches, which Muslim students can enjoy, have been offered for the first time at elementary and junior high schools in two towns in Ibaraki Prefecture.

From Solingen to Moscow to Hartlepool, jihadist attacks risk becoming the new normal. Islamist terror has returned to Europe. But in truth, it never really went away. On 23 August, the German city of Solingen was the scene of an all too familiar and barbaric crime. Issa Al H, a suspected member of Islamic State, slashed at the necks of people in a crowd, as they gathered to celebrate the city’s 650th anniversary. He killed three people and injured eight more. Islamic State swiftly took responsibility, calling this murderer a ‘soldier’, and hailing the attack as an act of ‘revenge...

In her acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention, Vice President Kamala Harris mentioned foreign policy and national security in brief, broad, general themes: support for Israel and for Palestinian self-determination, and work toward a ceasefire of the ongoing conflict in Gaza; support for Ukraine in its war against Russia; support for border security but welcoming immigrants; ensuring America has the “strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world”; support for NATO; and waging tech competition with China. Eventually, someone will need to put some flesh on the bones collected in her speech.

This would be the largest Attack on US soil since 9/11.”... First, there was an arrest in Vegas over a teen convert to Islam who wanted to kill Jews. Now there’s been another arrest in what appears to be a more sophisticated plot. Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, a Pakistani Muslim living in Canada, planned to carry out terrorist attacks against Jews in New York. There was an unnamed American Muslim also involved. During those conversations, Khan confirmed that he and a U.S.-based ISIS supporter (Associate-1) had been planning to carry out an attack in a particular U.S. city (City-1). Among other...

“As long as Columbia continues to invest and to benefit from Israeli apartheid, the students will continue to resist” The radical, anti-Israel mob has returned to the campus of Columbia University, after taking the summer off. Despite having months to prepare for this, the school looked like it was caught flat-footed, as protesters picked up right where they left off last spring. What are these people going to have to do before authorities take them seriously? As Columbia resumes classes, student activists vow to carry on with protests against Israel Columbia University resumed classes Tuesday with students sunbathing and eating...

Next month, October 7, will mark the first anniversary of Hamas' surprise attack on Israel, in which over 1,100 Israelis -- mostly civilians -- were ruthlessly murdered in their homes. The chaotic political fallout that ensued afterward would involve the occupation of college campuses across the United States by protesters denouncing Zionism and colonialism, as well as the declaration that Israel was somehow an "apartheid state," despite that definitionally not being the case. Any mourning for the victims of Hamas' attack was quickly drowned out by extremist American college students some 6,000 miles away who arrogantly believe a handful of...

Belgium has been rocked by yet another horrifying crime, directly tied to the consequences of open borders and unchecked Islamic migration. In the heart of Liège, two Islamic Moroccan nationals, Mohammed and Jalal, brutally raped a young man, filming the entire assault and forcing him to shout “Long live Morocco” at gunpoint. This vile attack took place in the toilets of a café in Carré, while the victim was out celebrating with friends.The two Muslim migrants, already benefiting from Europe’s lax immigration policies, lured the young man into the café’s toilets by grabbing him by the hood and silencing him...

America is under attack from within, and most of the public is either unaware or unwilling to confront this growing danger. We are not just facing an ideological war—this is a coordinated, well-funded effort to dismantle American values, destroy our Constitution, and replace it with an Islamic regime. At the forefront of this movement is the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Hamas-linked organization whose leader, Nihad Awad, has made no secret of his desire to see America fall.

Having unwisely invited into Germany Muslims who have no interest in assimilating, the German government is now paying the worst of them to go away. Last week, the German government, led by social democrat Olaf Scholz, deported 28 convicted criminals to Kabul. Among them was a rejected asylum-seeker who took part in the brutal and cunning gang rape of a 14-year-old girl. According to the German mainstream media, each of the deported criminals, including the gang rapist, was given 1000 Euros in cash to help start a new life back home in Afghanistan. This is civilizational decline in action. It’s...

The entire religion is based upon using brute force and sadism to force people’s submission. In recent days, various Israeli former captives of the Muslim Brotherhood (Hamas) in the Gaza Strip have gone public in the Israeli media with their ordeal, and their reportage is uniform. Every one of their different captors comes across as a psychopathic bully. Being kidnapped and becoming a hostage to Muslims means more than just loss of freedom; it means constant, 24-7 abuse, punishment physical and psychological, in particular, endless humiliation. Israel’s YNETnews.com quoted freed hostage Almog Meir regarding his abuser: “If he did not...
