Being a Christian girl in Pakistan means living as a target. Teenagers Maria, Sidra, Niha, and Elishba are just four of countless girls who have been abducted from their homes and forced to convert to Islam in the past year. Sidra and Niha were both abducted less than a month ago, in March 2026. The abuse goes beyond kidnapping. Maria was taken in July and forced to marry a 30-year-old Muslim man. She later gave a statement saying she had done so of her own will and was now a follower of Islam. Despite the efforts of Maria’s parents in...

Edmund Fitton-Brown @EFittonBrown Oh dear. Iskandar323 picked the wrong jurisdiction in which to become one of the world’s leading pro-Hamas propagandists. The #UAE takes a dim view of foreigners who abuse their hospitality by supporting terrorist groups. It would be a pity if the Emiratis learned his identity. Quote WikiBias @WikiBias · Mar 23 Investigations have revealed that Iskandar323, the recently banned editor, who worked to rewrite Jewish history and whitewash the Iranian regime and Hamas, is an English journalist based in the United Arab Emirates. Our eyes are wide open for all others. More to come.

If the UK joined the US as the 51st state. We would be the poorest state in the entire union. Mississippi which is portrayed at swamp dwelling hillbillies in majority of international media is above us. I don’t think people grasp how far we’ve fallen in real terms when it comes to GDP per capita. We’ve seen no growth for almost an entire generations. We’ve seen our productivity decrease and our tax increases. The average person on the UK, on £50,000 is less well off than your average Mississippi swamp dweller.

Under Pope Leo XIV, for the first time, the Vatican set up a dedicated Muslim prayer room at heart of Pope’s 500-year-old library. Suicidal madness. The Vatican should have set up a room, a shrine, to the hundreds of millions of Christians slaughtered by Muslims since its creation 1,400 years ago. ROME HAS FALLEN For the first time ever, the Vatican has built a Muslim prayer room inside its Apostolic Library. While Christians are banned from Mecca, while no church stands in Saudi Arabia, and while Europe’s cathedrals are being turned into mosques, Pope Leo XIV rolls… https://t.co/qnz7jjBhSI pic.twitter.com/qNhu1vjrgb —...

John Guandolo is a former FBI Special Agent and counterterrorism expert. He’s warning that Islamic schools inside America are teaching Muslim students to take over America He reveals he has curriculum from Texas schools that teaches if Muslims die trying to kill all non-Muslims, they’ll be rewarded in the afterlife “Why is it that what our leaders say about Islam is exactly opposite of what Muslims teach Muslim children about Islam in US Islamic schools? I have here the most widely used tabletop book of Islamic law in North America. What it says is the purpose of Islam is to...

The NYT Misrepresents the History of the Israeli–Palestinian Conflict. A welter of factual errors and misleading judgments has produced a distorted description of the 1948 War. Benny Morris. 27 Feb 2024. As we saw from the savage Hamas assault on southern Israel on 7 October, the Palestinians have certainly been active protagonists in their more-than-century-long battle against Zionism and Israel. But the New York Times would have it otherwise. Indeed, the underlying narrative in their magazine piece of 6 February 2024, “The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict and the Long Shadow of 1948,” is that the Palestinians have always lacked agency and have...

Pope Leo XIV's recent visit to the Mosque of Algiers--where he removed his shoes, stood in silent reflection before the mihrab, and expressed gratitude for being in "a place that represents the space proper to God"--is not a harmless gesture of goodwill. It is a deeply consequential moment that raises serious questions about how the highest office in the Catholic Church is choosing to represent Christian truth in the public square. Because this is not simply about respect. No one is arguing against basic courtesy toward Muslims or any other religious group. Christians are called to love their neighbors and...

Marrakech – The United Kingdom’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) issued an urgent travel warning for Algeria late on Monday after two suicide bombings struck the town of Blida, roughly 50 kilometers south of the capital Algiers. The FCDO confirmed it is “aware of reports of an explosion on 13 April in the town of Blida” and urged British nationals in the area to “remain vigilant at all times and follow the advice of the local security authorities.” The twin attacks unfolded in the early afternoon. The first explosion targeted the security directorate in central Blida. A second suicide...

Imagine that a Republican seeks his party's endorsement for the U.S. House of Representatives, despite having been allied with a white supremacist organization just a decade earlier. Imagine that this candidate had once sarcastically proposed setting aside certain states for white citizens and had shared a stage with a speaker known for excoriating Jews as "bloodsuckers." You're right. That man wouldn't get his party's endorsement. He would probably want to go into hiding after the howl of negative media coverage. So how did we get Keith Ellison? State Rep. Keith Ellison of Minneapolis is the DFL-endorsed candidate for the Fifth...

Dhaka, Bangladesh A man was killed, and at least three others were injured after a mob attacked, vandalised and set fire to a shrine in Daulatpur upazila of Kushtia on Saturday, following allegations of insulting religious sentiments.

British men Ali Mohammed Ali Abdullah, Hameed Mohammed Nagi, Ibrahim Ayyub Khan, and Mohammed Sultan Saleh were caught illegally sneaking into the U.S. in a remote part of Maine, per court records.

(The Center Square) – In the last year of the Biden administration, millions of dollars flowed from the city of Atlanta to nonprofits so they could aid migrants pouring through U.S. borders. A quarter-million dollars went to a Chicago-based Islamic activist organization that was raising money for Gaza at the time. The Center Square wanted to know what, specifically, that group and others spent their grant money on. But for months, requests to the office of Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, filed under the Georgia Open Records Act, have been answered with hefty price quotes ranging from hundreds to more than...

In Pakistan and Nigeria, some Christians found their Easter turned into a day of mourning after jihadi attacks reportedly caused mass casualty events. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu talked about persecuted Christians for his Easter message, but heads of supposedly Christian countries in the West ignored the issue. Islamic terrorists often choose holidays to target Christians with deadly violence, and Easter 2026 was tragically no exception. European media outlet Visegrád 24 shared on X on April 5, “Reports of a potential Islamist terror attack against Pakistani Christians on Easter morning. A man rammed a truck into a large Christian procession...

Italy has expelled an imam of Pakistani origin who sparked massive outrage after he was filmed in an undercover investigation citing the Qur’an as an endorsement for marrying girls at the age of nine. On April 2, the Italian daily Il Giornale reported that Paolo Sartori, the police commissioner of Brescia, known as Italy’s Islamic “capital,” ordered the deportation of Ali Kashif, who told a reporter for the TV program Fuori dal Coro that girls can be married after their first period. [T]he authorities are right to repatriate those who fail to comply with the law and fundamental human rights....

Europe is lost as a Christian continent, and its demise is self-inflicted. It is no coincidence that European countries are refusing to aid the US in the present fight against Iran. From not sending ships to open up the Straits of Hormuz to refusal of use of NATO bases on their lands to not even allowing planes bringing weapons to Israel to compete with local birds for the airspace, the Europeans are making it clear that “this is not their war”. That, in spite of most of their oil coming from the region. Even King Charles is not giving an...

At least 43 people have been killed in an attack by a rebel group linked to ISIL (ISIS) in northeast Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), according to the army. Regional army spokesperson Lieutenant Jules Tshikudi Ngongo said on Thursday that at least “43 compatriots were killed and 44 houses torched” during the previous day’s attack in Bafwakoa, located in Mambasa territory, in the province of Ituri. Authorities blamed the attack on the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), a group led by former Ugandan rebels that has sworn allegiance to ISIL. The army has struggled to contain the group, as it battles...

Gunmen killed at least 30 people during a Palm Sunday attack in Ungwan Rukuba, a community in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau state, Nigeria. The incident occurred during the evening, when armed men reportedly entered the community and opened fire on residents.

This week, the UN General Assembly voted to declare the transatlantic African slave trade as "the gravest crime against humanity." UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said "the transatlantic slave trade was a crime against humanity that struck at the core of personhood, broke up families and devastated communities." Ghana's President John Mahama praised the declaration, saying "we came together in solemn solidarity to affirm truth and pursue a route to healing and reparations. The adoption of this resolution serves as a safeguard against forgetting." US ambassador to the UN Dan Negrea objected "history is replete with crimes against humanity--genocides, massacres, torture,...
