Several filmmakers, including Yorgos Lanthimos (Poor Things) and Mike Figgis (Leaving Las Vegas), along with artists and academics have signed an open letter condemning the U.S. strikes against Iran while calling for leaders to respect Iran’s “right to self determination.”
Six shootings related to the war in Iran and more than 50 bullets.
And zero arrests! Terrorists run the streets here. And they know it.
That’s nice, it’s good the Khomeinists will have police protection.
Is this late stage multiculturalism and diversity or are we already conquered?
Michigan State Police said an “active shooting incident” happened early Thursday afternoon, March 12, 2026, at the Temple Israel at 5725 Walnut Lake Road in West Bloomfield Township, near the intersection of Walnut Lake and Drake roads.
Police sources believe a truck intentionally crashed into the building and then caught fire. The smoke at the scene is from that vehicle.

Canadian adult men under the age of 35 are more likely to say gender equality has gone “far enough” and hold traditional views of gender roles than the general population, new polling data suggests.
The Ipsos data found 57 per cent of young males surveyed think Canada has done enough in giving women equal rights to men, compared to 40 per cent of Canadians overall.
If hypocritical progressives really cared about diversity, they’d hire more white men

The Iranian elementary school building where scores of children were killed as the U.S. and Israel began their massive aerial campaign was on a U.S. target list and may have been mistaken for a military site, multiple people familiar with the strike told The Washington Post.
The deadly attack occurred in the first few hours of the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran — just as parents were hurrying to the two-story schoolhouse to take their kids home to safety — and killed at least 175 people, many of them children, according to Iranian state media.
It is still not clear why the building was hit, but one person familiar with the school strike said the building had been identified as a factory and had been an approved strike target. A second person familiar said there was an arms depot target located in the same area and did not know if the United States hit the school by mistake, or if U.S. officials had the wrong intelligence and thought the building was the arms depot.

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s statement on Saturday, in response to yet more gunfire aimed at Canadian synagogues — this time in Toronto and Thornhill, just north of the city — was notable for one reason: It did not aver that “there is no place in Canada” for what had happened, or use any similar verbiage. It was a tiny mercy in a very unnerving time. At this point, the phrase has transcended cliché and entered the realm of the offensively meaningless. Yet somehow politicians’ communication advisers still keep churning it out.
Nothing is being done because the elites who created this mess would have to implicate themselves.
Once they find a way to blame it on the proles well look out!

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is in favor of a proposal to build new nuclear power plants in the EU. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz says it’s impossible.
At a nuclear summit near Paris earlier this week, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen described the transition from nuclear energy undertaken by some EU countries as a “strategic mistake.” Nuclear power, she said, is a “reliable, affordable source of low-emission electricity.” She announced new EU financial assistance for nuclear power plants.
Von der Leyen’s words reverberated in Germany, which switched off its last nuclear reactor in 2023.
As debates intensify in Ottawa and across the provinces, new data show that public opinion on key Canada politics issues is hardening.
A new national survey conducted by Leger between February 27 and March 2, 2026, highlights strong support for tighter immigration-related measures, widespread concern over record-setting deficits, and majority backing for a stricter return-to-office policy for federal employees.
Nineteen people have been jailed over an attack at a concert hall near Moscow that killed 149 people and left more than 500 injured, the deadliest mass shooting in Russia in two decades.
A Russian military court handed life sentences to four gunmen and 11 accomplices. Four other defendants were given between 19 and 22 years, state media reported.
Gunmen opened fire at Crocus City Concert Hall on the outskirts of Russia’s capital on 22 March 2024 and set fire to the venue.
An Islamic State group affiliate admitted it had carried out the attack and posted video evidence. Moscow has repeatedly alleged Ukrainian involvement, which Kyiv has strenuously denied.
If or when Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberals succeed in cobbling together a majority in the House of Commons, it will surely be one of the most unique majorities in Canadian political history — cobbled together from 166 MPs elected as Liberals last spring, at least four floor-crossers and perhaps two or three byelection victories.
Those four party-switchers are remarkable enough. But they have now come from two different parties — the Conservatives and the NDP — that are, for the most part, diametrically opposed. Until today, it might have been hard to imagine that Matt Jeneroux, elected four times as a Conservative in Edmonton, and Lori Idlout, elected twice as the NDP MP for Nunavut, could sit in the same party caucus.
Iran’s new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, released his first statement Thursday — after reports circulated that he was in a coma and had his leg amputated after being severely injured in the US-Israeli strikes that killed his father.
The message was read out on Iranian state TV by an anchor as an image of Khameni was displayed.

If you spend enough time in a grocery store these days, you will notice something that would have been unusual not long ago: Shoppers pushing carts in pyjama pants.
What once felt like a social faux pas is quietly becoming normal. Pyjama bottoms, flannel lounge pants and slippers have become part of what could be called the new “errand uniform.” And while it may seem trivial, consumer behaviour — even clothing choices — often reveals deeper economic shifts.
It’s double or quits for the civilised world, for the cause of human flourishing, freedom and democracy. Either Donald Trump holds his nerve, crushes the Iranian regime, rides out the oil shock and reopens the Strait of Hormuz, or he and America are finished, exposed as unserious, fickle and incapable of forward planning, a superpower manquée felled by drone-wielding barbarians.
The challenge is Trump’s character, his willingness to accept short-term economic and electoral pain, not America or Israel’s exceptional military capacities. Does the US president, a hawk on Iran for 47 years, have it in him to finish the job, going down in history as the saviour of civilisation from nuclear Islamism, or is he merely the unidimensional man child his critics believe him to be?

Bob Gale has resigned as chair of the Regional Municipality of Niagara amid calls for an apology from local anti-racism groups that claim he owns a copy of Adolf Hitler’s book.
Gale submitted on Wednesday a letter to Rob Flock, the Ontario minister of municipal affairs and housing, stating that his resignation was effective immediately.
“Today, a member of the communist party circulated a dated document that listed my name as the owner of a historical book found in many libraries,” Gale wrote in his letter to Flack.
Earlier Wednesday, the Niagara Region Anti-Racism Association and the Justice 4 Black Lives Niagara issued a joint release alleging that Gale purchased and owned a copy of “Mein Kampf,” Hitler’s political manifesto, signed by the Nazi leader.
It’s an historic document. The latter day Nazi Karens would burn all of us at the stake on the flimsiest of pretexts.
