“Unworkable” Scottish Hate Crime Law Comes Into Effect

Scotland’s sweeping new ‘hate crime’ law, designed to protect a wide range of individuals (except women) from hatred, came into effect on Monday.

The Hate Crime and Public Order Act, under which police have even been told to target ‘hateful’ comedians, has received criticism from almost all quarters of Britain’s political society. Even The Guardian insisted that officials “should not stymie public debate,” despite noting that the law might well be “well intentioned.”

Beyoncé inflicts unspeakable horrors on Dolly Parton’s ‘Jolene’

It is a truth universally acknowledged that all sane and decent people like, if not love, Dolly Parton. Another universal truth is that Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” is one of the greatest country songs ever written. But one of the truths of life in 2024 is that modern pop culture degrades everything it touches. Nothing more clearly illustrates that fact than Beyoncé’s aggressively “girl boss” version of Parton’s classic song. It’s a travesty and a metaphor for so much of the damage leftism has inflicted on the world.

The Air Force Asked This Man to Investigate UFOs—Then Pushed Him Away After What He Found

J. Allen Hynek

His job was to uncover secrets from the unknown. But his curiosity opened doors that the government preferred to keep closed.

Do you think the U.S. government is hiding, and possibly reverse-engineering, extraterrestrial technology? Think again. Or better yet, don’t think about it at all. Nothing to see here.

That’s the underlying message of a report released last month by the Department of Defense. The 63-page “Report on the Historical Record of U.S. Government Involvement with Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP)” concludes that the DoD’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) “found no evidence that any [U.S. Government] investigation, academic-sponsored research, or official review panel has confirmed that any sighting of a UAP represented extraterrestrial technology.”

The last Public UFO report was such a clumsy whitewash that they should have entitled it “Project Swamp Gas”.

Good fun here as well as interesting stories.

MP Han Dong has admitted that he was made aware that a bus had been organized by a private school to bring international students to vote in the Liberal Party nomination contest in 2019, in which he was a candidate. The admission was mentioned by counsel at the foreign interference inquiry in Ottawa on April 2.

Tasha Kheiriddin: Liberals’ blind opposition to LNG is making us poorer and less safe

“Not interested.” Those are the words of Energy and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson, when asked whether the federal government would subsidize future liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects. “We are not interested in investing in LNG facilities,” retorted Wilkinson. “That’s the role of the private sector. They need to assess the business case and make the investments.”

Douglas Todd: Canada’s tough-talking immigration minister making headlines, but how much is spin?

It’s rare when a politician criticizes the record of his own party, but that’s the approach Immigration Minister Marc Miller has been adopting.

The teenage friend of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has become quotable as he goes after the “perverse effects” and “lack of integrity” in the migration system that his Liberal predecessors — John McCallum, Ahmed Hussen, Marco Mendocino and Sean Fraser — built up upon gaining power nine years ago.

A response to Professor Salim Mansur, a once courageous pro-Israel academic who recently made a radical shift and became a strident anti-Israel voice.

Herzl and the Bible – This unsolicited commentary is a response to three essays by Professor Salim Mansur, a once courageous pro-Israel academic who recently made a radical shift and became a strident anti-Israel voice.

I became acquainted with Salim Mansur in 2017 at a conference in Jerusalem, where he presented a positive view of the right of the Jewish people to the land of Israel. As a Muslim, he pointed out that the Quran validated this primordial connection. In the same year, he wrote The Qur’an Problem and Islamism in which he defined Jew-hatred as a pathology, though not embedded in the holy book of Islam.


This comes as a shock, I have held Salim Mansur and his work in high regard for many years.

Below is Salim’s latest piece which came out after the above article was written.

The Chronicle of Zionist lies and their implosion foreseen

The owl of Minerva in Roman mythology represented wisdom and the German idealist philosopher Hegel in the 19th century borrowed the symbolism of Minerva’s owl to note that it took flight at dusk, meaning understanding and wisdom came to people about events in history after their passage. It might thus be said that in the fading lights of dusk in which Minerva’s owl took flight over Gaza following the events of 7 October 2023, one could discern the approaching inexorable denouement of Israel as a colonial-settler state in the Levant.

The entire Zionist project in the making of Israel was built upon and sustained by lies and, consequently, there cannot be any avoidance from its eventual karmic – the interlocking chain of cause and effect – dismantling as a historical aberration like other similarly built colonial-settler states that got dismantled, such as French Algeria or the white-minority regimes of Rhodesia and South Africa. This eventual dismantling was foreseen and forewarned by Jews and non-Jews alike who were not gulled by Theodor Herzl’s manifesto, Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State), published in Vienna in 1896 for the scam it was and the effort he set in motion in bringing to fruition his imagined Zionist agenda. Herzl proposed,

Let the sovereignty be granted us over a portion of the globe large enough to satisfy the rightful requirements of a nation; the rest we shall manage for ourselves.

Bristol named van-dweller capital of UK as cost of living bites

… Marvin Rees, the mayor of Bristol, said the demographic of people living in vans in the city had shifted dramatically from a lifestyle choice to a necessity due to the housing crisis.

“Our need for affordable housing is huge,” Rees said in the report. “Households across Bristol are struggling to afford to keep a roof over their heads, with spiralling rents and rising bills, threatening to push many towards the brink of homelessness.”
