Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters ‘mocked musician’s grandmother who died in Holocaust’

The former Pink Floyd star Roger Waters mocked a musician’s grandmother who died in the Holocaust, a new documentary alleges.

Former colleagues have given interviews in which they claim the singer-songwriter made numerous humiliating and demeaning comments to Jewish people in his entourage.

Anthony Furey: A Very Low Point for Canada

It was only last week that Canada’s relations with India, the world’s largest democracy, went downhill fast. The drama became a big international story and when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited the United Nations in New York last week, the India affair was pretty much all he was asked about.

Trudeau publicly accused the Indian government of participating in the killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil—a Sikh independence activist born in India who has been accused of terrorism, a charge he had denied. Trudeau produced no meaningful evidence and India was not happy, creating a chill in relations that included the stopping of all visas for Canadian citizens.

France and Germany ‘Plot To Overthrow Polish Government’

The fact that the left-liberal government of Germany and the centrist leadership in France are hoping for a less confrontative government in Warsaw after the Polish elections on October 15th should come as no surprise, but they may be more actively engaged in bringing about such a change, according to a pro-government Polish journalist and a former Polish Prime Minister.

John Ivison: Ignorance of our history comes back to haunt Ottawa

It is entirely appropriate that Justin Trudeau has issued a formal apology to Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Jewish communities around the world for the grave diplomatic humiliation of paying tribute to a Nazi in the House of Commons, even as the Ukrainian president struggles to kill the myth that Nazism is rampant in his nation’s politics and society.

Document reveals police allegedly warned second Khalistani separatist about threat to his life

Months after a pro-Khalistan activist was shot and killed in Surrey, B.C., a second Sikh activist was allegedly warned by law enforcement about threats to his life, according to a newly disclosed document.

The document, titled “duty to warn” is addressed to Gurmit Singh Toor and dated August 24. It was made public by pro-Khalistan activist group Sikhs For Justice.

Speaking through a translator, Toor confirmed to CBC News that Surrey RCMP and the Integrated National Security Enforcement Team (INSET) came to his home and issued the warning. CBC News is working to confirm the veracity of the document with RCMP, but has not yet received a response.

Scientists ‘shocked’ and ‘alarmed’ at what’s in the mRNA shots

Early in 2023, genomics scientist Kevin McKernan made an accidental discovery. While running an experiment in his Boston lab, McKernan used some vials of mRNA Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccines as controls. He was ‘shocked’ to find that they were allegedly contaminated with tiny fragments of plasma DNA.

McKernan, who has 25 years’ experience in his field, ran the experiment again, confirming that the vials contained up to, in his opinion, 18-70 times more DNA contamination than the legal limits allowed by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

What Nato sceptics get wrong about Ukraine – Europe, not America, is calling the shots

Nearly three quarters of a century after Nato’s founding, Britain has slid down its league table of political and military power: from a near-peer ally of the United States to more or less open vassalage. To witness the conquered mindset of the British establishment, one need only read a recent article deliberating on what is to be done with the British Army, plummeting in numbers, capability and international esteem. It proposes to reshape our land forces as a collection of Special Forces units at America’s disposal: “we are likely to fight as part of a coalition in future, so why not be the sharpened tip of the American spear?”

New York State Funds Islamist Hatred of Jews, Christians, Promotes Enslaving Women and Children

New York State taxpayers have handed over $23 million to a number of divisive Islamist groups over the last ten years, including one institution banned in the United Arab Emirates as a terrorist organization, according to state funding reports obtained by Focus on Western Islamism. The funds came from several state agencies, but primarily from New York’s Department of Education.

“This information is shocking. It’s unbelievable that New Yorkers’ tax dollars are going to groups that preach and advocate hatred. Not one penny should go to them,” former New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind told FWI. Hikind served in the legislature for 36 years and founded Americans Against Antisemitism in 2019. “I will call on the governor to stop this,” he said.

My Dinner with André: A Melancholy Repast at the End of a World

“It feels great to be in this city,” said my French interlocutor, over dinner this week in a neighborhood Hungarian restaurant. “It feels like I’m back in Europe.”

I laughed, telling him that that is the second time since I moved to Budapest that I’ve heard those words from the mouth of a visitor from France. He smiled and said, “It’s true. I feel it also in Poland.”

He’s talking about migration and crime, of course. Since moving permanently to Europe last autumn, I have put myself on a crash course to learn what life is really like in Europe, as opposed to what the American media says it’s like. One would understand from paying attention to the US media that Europe has migration problems. But one would almost never grasp the depth and breadth of the problem if one did not have the chance to talk to Europeans who are living with it, but whose views do not fit the media’s preferred liberal narrative.

The writers’ strike is over – but Hollywood’s nightmare is only just beginning

As the old rule of politics has it, one should never argue with a man who buys ink by the barrel. And perhaps in the past few months, Hollywood has earned its own, updated version: never start a war of words with anyone who spends all day in front of their laptop. Incredibly, that is what the studios did in May, when they refused to back down in a contract dispute with the Writers’ Guild of America (WGA) – the union which represents the 11,500 screenwriters currently earning a living, or trying to, in the US film and TV business. And even now the bitter 146-day strike which followed is over, only now is the real trouble about to begin.
