SCOTLAND — According to reports, the homeland of William Wallace has shifted away from charging into certain death in the name of freedom to just letting their teenage daughters handle the violent rape gangs. "I let my daughter have a knife, she can probably handle a gang of Muslim men," said local man Ewan Grant. "I would help, but my couch is really very comfortable. Plus, dealing with gangs who want to rape our daughters sounds like a lot of work." Instead of facing mortal danger in the name of freedom like their ancestors, today's Scottish have opted to give...

When Englishman Thomas Pellow was 27, he led a slave-hunting expedition to the West African coast. His orders were to plunder the villages, kill the adults and capture the children. But Pellow was not a mercenary employed in the transatlantic slave trade, which sent millions of its victims across the ocean. He was a slave himself – taken prisoner as a child by the Moroccan Sultan Moulay Ismail. And 300 years ago, he was far from alone. The sultan owned an estimated 25,000 European slaves, many seized in raiding expeditions on the south coast of England as well as countries...

Call it the twilight of the West. ... British police are facing heavy scrutiny after they threatened to arrest a Christian preacher after a group of Muslims heard him preach and threatened to stab him and punch his wife. The incident occurred in Bristol when Pastor Dia Moodley was preaching in the city center. Moodley was talking about the differences between Islam and Christianity and was holding a Quran as he did so. In response, he says a Muslim bystander threatened to stab him, while another tried to punch his wife. Moodley said he was then pinned to the ground...

In many of the countries we’re drawing migrants from, women are treated like second-class citizens, like objects to be used, abused, and discarded at some man’s will. These are not just isolated attitudes; they’re deep-seated cultural norms. And yet, we continue to welcome this disgusting mindset into our country under the left-wing banner of “tolerance and diversity.” This isn’t just reckless behavior; it’s dangerous and deadly, to boot. ... The latest case out of Minnesota proves that yet again. A 42-year-old Somali man was convicted of raping a 12-year-old girl. That’s horrifying enough on its own. But what’s even more...

An Islamic center in Minnesota penned a gushing letter of support for a Somalian migrant convicted of raping a 12-year-old girl. Qalinle Ibrahim Dirie, 42, was convicted in May of first-degree criminal sexual conduct after he was found guilty of abducting the girl from her backyard and raping her in June 2024. Following his conviction, Dirie's local Islamic center, Al-Ihsan Islamic Center in St. Paul, submitted a heartfelt letter begging Hennepin County District Court Judge Michael Burns to consider the convicted criminal's 'character' before delivering a sentence, Alpha News reported. The letter, titled 'Community Support Letter for Qalinle Dirie,' was...

Bavaria's interior minister already said last year: “The crime statistics make it clear that uncontrolled immigration also has a negative impact on the security situation” ... Foreign nationals are significantly more likely to be identified as suspects in Bavaria than German citizens, according to a report from the Bavarian state government in response to a parliamentary inquiry by AfD member Martin Böhm. The suspect burden number (TVBZ), a key metric, indicates the number of suspects per 100,000 people within a population group aged eight and over. This figure allows for a comparison of crime levels across different demographic segments. Overall,...

When the German state fails to protect the youth, some citizens are taking defense into their own hands, even as the police warn against such an action ... The small German town of Harsefeld is grappling with a severe breakdown of public order, as a youth gang’s reign of terror has led to hospitalizations, extortion, and drug dealing. The situation has become so desperate that citizens are being forced to form a vigilante patrol group, highlighting a perceived failure of the state to protect its own people. What was once a tranquil Lower Saxon town has now become a hotbed...

"Political control and the concealment of information are hallmarks of totalitarian ideologies," wrote Marine Le Pen in response to the amendment, which cites the murders of Thomas and Lola.. When reality does not mesh with the “narrative,” the left’s standard tactic is to turn to censorship, and the French left is no different. The French Greens and other left-wing parties now want to make sure that news stories are not used for ideological purposes by the “far right,” claiming that certain media outlets are causing a “moral panic” around immigration due to migrant murders. According to a parliamentary amendment tabled...

Authorities in Zurich have, for the first time, issued a fine under the Swiss law known as the “burqa ban,” prohibiting facial coverings in public spaces. Police officers in the city of Zurich fined a woman who covered her face for “religious reasons.” The woman refused to pay the penalty of ₣100 (€105), so the case will go to the canton governor’s office who will rule on the matter. No further details are known of the case, but it is widely speculated in Swiss media that the woman was most likely wearing a burqa, an item worn by some Muslim...

I recently had a passionate debate with a German friend about whether Islam lies at the root of the dysfunction in Islamic societies and whether it can be reformed. Like many of my privileged Western liberal friends, his understanding of the Islamic world seems to rest on a brief visit to the Egyptian pyramids and perhaps a guided city tour through Istanbul. He offered the usual well-meaning but tired arguments I've heard countless times. When I asked whether he had read the Quran or the Hadiths, he admitted he hadn't yet insisted that Islam wasn't the problem—it was merely a...

US President Donald Trump says that Iran will be held responsible and face “dire” consequences for any further attacks by Yemen’s Houthis.

A child has been stabbed to death and four others injured in a mass stabbing attack in Villach, Austria today. The suspect is a Syrian migrant. He reportedly shouted, “Allahu Akbar.” When police responded he smiled and put up the one finger salute that many Muslims do. The deadly mass stabbing follows the deadly mass ramming attack in Munich, Germany two days earlier by an Afghan migrant suspect. Deadly Islamic attacks are a regular occurrence in European countries with large Muslim immigrant and migrant populations. ... We keep seeing this happen. Children murdered, women harassed and raped. Roads taken over...

Muslim Child Rape Gangs in the UK.

It’s the scandal that refuses to die. Despite the best efforts of our spineless elites – who’d rather talk about anything on Earth other than grooming gangs – it keeps creeping back. For all the left’s cheap, libellous cries about how racist it is to talk about these gangs, people keep talking about them. In the face of official indifference to the suffering of thousands of poor and working-class girls at the hands of these groomers and abusers, people have demanded a reckoning. There is a public thirst for truth, and no amount of top-down slander and censure can crush...

Czech leader calls migrant wave in Europe an 'organised invasion' Prague (AFP) - Czech President Milos Zeman called the current wave of refugees to Europe "an organised invasion", adding young men from Syria and Iraq should instead "take up arms" against the Islamic State (IS) group. "I am profoundly convinced that we are facing an organised invasion and not a spontaneous movement of refugees," said Zeman in his Christmas message to the Czech Republic released Saturday. He went on to say that compassion was "possible" for refugees who are old or sick and for children, but not for young men...

Federal investigators believe a US Army veteran who drove a truck into a crowd of New Year's revelers in New Orleans' French Quarter prepared the IED explosives at a nearby rental property. Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, a US citizen born and raised in Texas drove an electric vehicle from Houston to Louisiana to carry out the deadly attack which killed 15 and left at least 35 injured.

The terrorist who killed 15 people when he plowed his truck down crowded Bourbon Street in New Orleans was an American-born military veteran who was living in a run-down trailer park where he kept sheep and goats in the yard — just blocks away from the local mosque. -snip- Jabbar lived in a squalid trailer park on the outskirts of Houston that is home to mostly Muslim immigrants. Geese, chickens, and sheep roamed freely in Jabbar’s yard when The Post visited hours after the attack. One neighbor told The Post she spoke only Urdu, Pakistan’s national language. The neighborhood is...

The FBI thwarted an apparent plot to harm employees at a Florida office of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), according to court documents filed Monday. Law enforcement arrested Forrest Kendall Pemberton after he allegedly traveled to Plantation, Fla., in search of AIPAC’s office with several firearms, including an AR-15 rifle. Pemberton told police he went to the site, a former AIPAC office, to “scout” out the location before returning with the firearms, according to an affidavit signed by FBI special agent Taylor Nicklin. He was intercepted in a ride-share vehicle carrying the guns on Dec. 25, the first...

Gabriel, B. (2008). They Must Be Stopped: Why We Must Defeat Radical Islam and How We Can Do It. United States: St. Martin's Press, p.38By 1905 the West had liberated its territory previously conquered and savaged by Islam, and declared an economic and military victory, thus marking the end of 1400 years of Islamic rule and Jihad. During this period, Muslims had killed 270 million people across the globe: 120 million Africans, 60 million Christians, 80 million Hindus and 10 million Buddhists. * Arabia: (Some state:) 'It is estimated that as many as 400,000 people, including women and children, were...

As a guide dog handler of 25 and a half years, I’ve had hundreds of experiences of being refused service - but online threats and increasing hostility towards disabled people mean I’m giving up on asking publicly for equality and respect. The last straw came about a week ago. I was already reeling from a number of refusals by restaurants and shops when, once again, I was refused entry because I have a guide dog. I visited the restaurant, which I have chosen not to name, but was told I couldn’t enter as people could have allergies. This, by the...
