Last year, Barcelona Mayor Jaume Collboni, of the Catalan Socialist Party, announced that Gaza and other Muslim occupied terrorist areas would be considered the 11th district of the city. This year, Collboni cut ties with the Israeli city of Tel Aviv, tried to visit his new Muslim neighborhoods in Israel, but was barred from entry. The Catalan Socialist Party, a formerly Soviet-linked organization which was formed through a merger with the Communist Party, called this a “hostile act” and demanded a “forceful response” from the EU. The Socialist politician, unable to reach Gaza or any place in Israel, had to...

The Michigan Democratic Party kicked Rep. Haley Stevens out of its ranks Sunday, after she endorsed Michigan’s GOP Senate nominee, Mike Rogers — over Democrat Abdul El-Sayed, who defeated her in the primary.“Congresswoman Stevens is not a current member of the Michigan Democratic Party, nor will she be in the future,” the state party’s chair, Curtis Hertel, said in a post Sunday on X.Hertel announced the decision just over an hour after Stevens released an endorsement video for Rogers. That video followed days of public friction with El-Sayed, much of it over the candidate’s stance on Israel, the same issue...

Islamism is a violent corruption of mainstream Islam that summons adherents back to the seventh-century ideal of bloody jihad, the homicidal and suicidal religious zealotry that propelled a motley cadre of desert nomads to conquer half the world. Sheikh Ahmed El-Tayeb, the Muslim equivalent of the Vatican has rejected Islamism as “false Islam” and a “perversion of the Islamic religion” and accused it of “barbaric crimes.”

“You can almost guarantee that every woman that’s in the north of France has probably been raped along the journey. Some of the men too,” UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood admitted on a podcast. “They’ve certainly been abused and threatened.” If a fellow Muslim woman or girl isn’t safe on a boat full of her own people, what happens to a British woman or girl alone at night in a park or a train station with one of these ‘migrants’? What the Pakistani Muslim Labour politician put in charge of Britain’s immigration and national security policies didn’t admit was that...

WASHINGTON, 7 September — First, right-wing American Jews went after US Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney. Now they’ve set their sights on her father, 30-year Georgia state representative Billy McKinney, as their next target. McKinney, 75, has become the focus of the Atlanta-area Jewish community after his most recent criticism of Jews, which resulted in skyrocketing donations for his challenger’s campaign. The problem? When he was asked about his daughter’s disappointing campaign the day before her defeat in the Aug. 20 primary, McKinney told a television interviewer: “Jews have bought everybody.” When asked to further explain his daughter’s political difficulties, he said:...

Rita Panahi @RitaPanahi: Terrible but sadly predictable. Was in Marseille earlier this week. Beautiful, vibrant but also in decay. You see more Palestinian flags than French ones.Oct 17, 2026 Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby: Men draped in Palestinian flags loot stores across France. What has France done to itself?Oct 18, 2026. Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby: Why is the media working so hard to avoid showing any Palestinian flags in the riots in France?Oct 19, 2026

The shelves are absolutely ransacked. Glass jars and other items have been ripped off all the shelves and smashed on the ground. Yet the looters didn't steal (or even touch!) the ham, bacon, or other delicious pork options in the refrigerators. The looters also avoided the toilet paper and tissues on the other side of the store.

Jean-Luc Mélenchon and the left see an opening to take the presidency next year. The riots in France turned even uglier on the weekend, spreading across the country and including brazen acts of violence. We’ve explained the underlying fiscal and political woes behind the crisis, but the news this time is the pre-election play by far-left candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon. Heretofore Mr. Mélenchon, head of the far-left Indomitable France party, had taken a somewhat detached attitude to the protests. But this weekend he participated in protests in Paris. He also blamed police for “unleashing” on protesters, while condemning looting and arson....

The European anarchy has set the stage for a particularly disturbing scene in Milan, Italy, as one of Christianity's most recognizable landmarks became the backdrop for violent unrest. Flames rose from makeshift barricades, fireworks exploded, and thick smoke filled the square outside Milan Cathedral, the magnificent Gothic church that has stood at the heart of the city for centuries.Italy like France. Outside Milan Cathedral. A symbol of Christianity under siege. Fires, clashes, and devastation beneath its spires. This is no celebration — it is a collapse. They are burning the heart of Milan while everyone watches and records it. This...

The roof collapsed onto lower floors as anti-government protests over cost of living entered their fourth week across France ... A historic building in the French town of Limoges, about three hours south of Paris, has been "largely lost" after it was set on fire by rioters as demonstrations continue across France. The Limoges Town Hall was built in 1883, and was made a historic landmark in 1975. "The roof has collapsed onto lower floors, except the west wing, and two-thirds of the exterior has already disappeared," ... Macron leaves office in six months. ... Masked groups also attempted to...

Imtiaz Mohammad is running as a Republican – but he calls Pakistan his “motherland” and says anything he does will be “related to Pakistan.” After losing as a Democrat, he switched parties. His real goal: elect as many Muslims as possible – commissioners, congressmen, everything – until politicians must come begging the Muslim voting bloc. He wants all Muslims “on one page.” He is not running for Americans. He is running for Islam and Pakistan. Why is the Florida GOP still featuring him? Florida, do better. ... Mohammad, a Pakistani immigrant and former Democrat (Bernie/Squad supporter, ICE abolitionist, sanctuary-state advocate),...

France’s revolting students vowed Thursday night they are only getting started and plan to continue their nationwide rioting, blockades, demonstrations and boycotts now and into the foreseeable future. FRANCE24 reports at least a dozen demonstrations supporting the high school students’ anti-establishment movement were planned across France into Friday after a rally at Place de la Bastille in Paris saw tear gas and a water cannon were fired at protesters. The mass mobilisation of students in concert with far-left political parties has seen street violence soar to record levels across France in the past three weeks. Police have made more than...

"Monty Python" legend John Cleese is doubling down on his months-long string of incendiary posts about Islam after activists filed a complaint that asked Britain's counter-radicalization program to scrutinize him over the missives. "How exciting," the 86-year-old comedian wrote after learning that a member of the public had referred him to Prevent, a British government program designed to intervene when authorities believe someone may be vulnerable to radicalization or becoming involved in terrorism. The September 22 referral, first reported by Muslim-focused British news outlet 5Pillars, accused Cleese of a "sustained pattern" of online activity that "demonizes, dehumanizes, and collectively attributes...

... Oman Air warned Flydubai about the pilot's extremist views. But Flydubai ignored the warnings. Even when the suicidal pilot was a trainee, he was found with extremist material. He was treated as a security risk. He was linked to Al-Qaeda on 7 different occasions. He developed his extremist views during training camps in Syria. His colleagues described him as a religious extremist who refused to shake hands with women. He was also found guilty of promoting Istishhad. Which is religiously framed suicide attacks. Massive suspicions are now growing over why the UAE allowed him to fly Flight FZ1073. This...

The old joke that “whoever said marriage is a 50-50 proposition didn’t know the half of it,” takes on a whole new meaning in a culture flirting with “polyamory.”... Most important in the drive to normalize polyamory is the Supreme Court’s 2015 Obergefell decision. By legalizing same-sex “marriage” nationwide, the male/female distinction was treated as irrelevant for marriage, which opened the door to additional relational arrangements. In his dissent, Chief Justice John Roberts even questioned whether the arguments for same-sex marriage would justify “people who find fulfillment in polyamorous relationships.” The answer is unfortunately “yes.”

Discipline them physically by lightly hitting them to show them who is in charge... A London mosque with charitable status is under investigation for posting sermons that tell husbands to hit disobedient wives and setting out execution methods for gay men, including being thrown from tall buildings. The lectures were not smuggled out of a private meeting. They sit on the Hackney Islamic Community Centre’s own YouTube channel, delivered from the mosque also known as Masjid Daar Al-Hadeeth. The National Secular Society referred the material to the regulator. The Daily Mail published the tapes. Britain’s official response is a case...

The Omani copilot who stabbed the pilot on the flydubai flight yesterday discussed killing Jews on social media, an Israeli official tells The Times of Israel.The official adds that the attacker asked the Emirati crew members to kill him, citing conversations with passengers on the flight. “This was a person who was willing to commit suicide,” says the official. “His social media accounts [say] clearly that he has been radicalized into jihadist ideology. He talks about killing Jews.”“We can’t say for sure until the investigation’s over,” the official continues, “but it certainly seems like he was a suicide actor who...

The UK government's plan to house 1,250 Muslim adult male asylum seekers at a military camp that backs onto the playing fields in the Village of Piddington has inspired the village leaders to apply to become part of the United States. Piddington chair Tim McNally said "our current population is only 350. We'd become a small minority in our own community with the addition of more than a thousand alien invaders with drastically different moral codes that blame women and children for tempting them to abuse, rape. or murder them living right next-door to us." Parish councilor Joe Marshall agreed,...

Earlier this month, Gehad el-Haddad, a senior adviser and media spokesman for the Muslim Brotherhood was sentenced to life in prison in Egpyt. The son of Morsi’s former foreign affairs adviser Essam el-Haddad, he was the main English-language spokesman for the Muslim Brotherhood. He is also a former employee of the Clinton Foundation. Oops! In 2012, Gehad El Haddad divided his time between volunteering for the Muslim Brotherhood and heading the Cairo office of the Clinton Climate Initiative, but later that year began to work full time for the Muslim Brotherhood.
