Christian Villages Are Burning While Syrian President Speaks at UN

Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa/Abu Mohammad al-Julani, a former Syrian al-Qaeda leader and a former ISIS (Islamic State) terrorist, is now the current, self-ascribed ‘president’ of Syria. He was in New York addressing the 80th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) at the U.N. headquarters on September 24. Meanwhile, his Islamist regime was burning homes, villages, and forests in what is known as the Valley of Christians in Syria.

Julani has since returned to Syria, where his regime continues to murder and persecute members of religious minorities.

Lapu-Lapu festival suspect should have been in hospital before attack, experts say

The man accused of driving an SUV through a crowded street festival in Vancouver this spring, killing 11, should have been hospitalized by his mental-health team in the days before the attack, say four past and present members of a tribunal that oversees involuntary hospital detentions.

These members of the Mental Health Review Board of British Columbia say Kai-Ji Adam Lo’s behaviour before the April 26 attack on the Lapu-Lapu Day Festival should have raised multiple red flags for members of his health team, who are trained to recognize them.

Entertainment Arts’ New Saudi Owners Will Be Less Insufferable Than Old Woke Ones

Last month, leftists erupted when it was announced that former gaming titan Electronic Arts (EA) had been sold to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and a firm owned by Jared Kushner. Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund joined Kushner’s Affinity Partners to acquire the studio behind the “Madden,” “Battlefield,” and “Sims” franchises in a $55 billion deal.

EA had long been gamers’ preferred corporate villain. A pivot to live-service models in contrast to well-crafted single-player narratives alienated core fans, ballooning budgets meant that the company had to squeeze every penny out of consumers through predatory practices like loot boxes, and activist influencers within the company began poisoning content with their woke ideology. By the time the Saudis and Kushner appeared, shareholders were desperate to ditch a dying company.

Radical Academics Seed the Ground for Violence

If my gentle attempt at open dialogue led to vilification from intolerant academics, then violence against influential non-radicals is foreseeable.

Critics observe that the increasing polarization of many Western societies and frequent violence against dissenters are due in part to leftwing indoctrination in their educational institutions. In my experience, few radical leftwing academics advocate violence. Yet many of them helped build an environment that condoned violence through their blind adherence to dogmas.

Electric-vehicle companies urge Ottawa to stay on the communist path and keep sales mandate

Electric-vehicle companies urge Ottawa to maintain EV sales mandate

The electric-vehicle industry says the federal government’s move away from EV sales targets undermines the Canadian sector while threatening investment and job creation.

The government said in September it was dropping the requirement that 20 per cent of car sales be EVs in 2026, and launching a review of the entire program, which raised the requirement to 100 per cent by 2035.


I wonder who has lined up dealership rights for ChiCom EV’s?

Fashion Turns: Trans and Queer Labels Fade Among U.S. Youth

Transgender and queer identification among young Americans has dropped sharply in just two years, according to new research.

Drawing on large-scale survey data, Professor Eric Kaufmann of the University of Buckingham found that the share of students identifying as a gender other than male or female has fallen from nearly 7% in 2023 to just 3.6% this year. In his report, he described this as a “startling and unanticipated post-progressive development.”
