Andrew Kirsch: Revoke the citizenships of those who dupe the vetting process

Testifying in late August about a terror plot thwarted in July, Minister of Public Safety Dominic LeBlanc commended the intelligence and law enforcement services for their efforts. “This is the way that the investigative and national security system should work,” LeBlanc said. But in the hearings, he faced questions about the immigration vetting process and how two alleged terrorists, both born abroad, were able to get into Canada, and one receive full Canadian citizenship, given their alleged ISIS connections.

Rashida Tlaib, the Palestinian American congresswoman, has accused a political cartoonist of racism after he depicted her next to a pager exploding days after such devices blew up across Lebanon in what the Arab country has said was an attack by Israel.

Twenty-two years later, federal government still working to deport Ottawa’s Mohamed Harkat

Twenty-two years after the federal government first launched its bid to deport Ottawa’s Mohamed Harkat to his native Algeria as a terrorist, a court will once again convene to consider the case.

A Federal Court hearing in December will review the “minister’s opinion,” written by an unnamed senior official at Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada, that concluded Harkat posed a serious threat to Canada as a member of the al-Qaida network and should be deported despite holding refugee status in this country.

Venezuelan Gang’s Path to U.S. Stokes Fear, Crime and Border Politics

At the country’s southern border, U.S. Border Patrol agents have been on the lookout for members of a notorious Venezuelan gang. In the nation’s heartland, police officers from Denver to Chicago have made dozens of arrests for alleged crimes linked to the group, from retail theft to murder and prostitution.

And in New York City, police detectives have spent months interviewing informants — including confessed gang members — to identify gang leaders and gather information on robbery patterns and recruitment efforts.

The gang in question is Tren de Aragua, which sprang from a Venezuelan prison and developed into a feared criminal organization focused on sex trafficking, human smuggling and the drug trade.

Hezbollah’s takeover of Lebanon has strangled a nation ravaged by chaos and in-fighting

Lebanon was once so accustomed to the sounds of war that its parrots learned how to imitate the whistle of incoming shells.

An African Grey called Coco, which inhabited the lobby of Beirut’s Commodore Hotel, was so good at making the noise that unwitting guests would fling themselves under tables to take cover.

Lebanon’s civil war ended 34 years ago and with it the days when the Commodore’s deadpan receptionist asked new arrivals if they preferred a room “on the car bomb side or the rocket side” of the hotel.

If Justin Trudeau steps down this is what it will look like

“A tough but strong decision.”

“Put our country first.”

“His decision to withdraw from the race was in the best interest of the country.”

“A historic example of a genuine public servant.”

These are the words of a world leader, a former House Speaker, a member of the Republican party and a former president. All of them united in their praise of U.S. President Joe Biden’s decision to end his re-election bid.

The Real ‘Climate Change Deniers’ Are Those Who Deny the Climate Changed Before We Started Burning Fossil Fuels, Says Geologist

In 2020, Dr. Matthew Wielicki, then still an Associate Professor in the Department of Geology at the University of Alabama, noticed a great deal of anxiety in his students. On the one hand, this was understandable, as the world was just entering the Covid crisis and there was a lot of ignorance and fear about the disease in society at large. However, the anxiety that Wielicki noticed among his students had another cause – fear of climate change and the climate crisis.

Trump blasts ‘sloppy and tired’ Bill Maher, ‘bimbo’ Stephanie Ruhle and ‘degenerate’ NY Times editors in lengthy post

Former President Trump issued a lengthy and blistering attack on Bill Maher Saturday after the late night host and his guests weighed in on the Republican presidential nominee’s recently claim that if he lost the election, “the Jewish people would have a lot to do” with it.

“The ratings challenged Bill Maher, on his increasingly boring show on HBO, is really having a hard time coping with TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME. He is a befuddled mess, sloppy and tired, and every conversation, with B and C list guests, seems to start with, or revert back to, ME!,” Trump thundered on Truth Social.
