Anthony Furey is running for council. He owes some explanations to the Muslims he seeks to represent
… Just to cite a few examples: in a 2013 column, he warned against letting thousands of Muslim immigrants into Canada, given how their beliefs “conflict with Western standards.” In 2019, he complained about how “people are sheepish” to discuss how the growing Muslim vote might force “a running theme” of anti-Semitism into Canadian politics.
And?
Oh. Steven Zhou is a Writer for the National Council of Canadian Muslims. (Columns by the NCCM, the former CAIR Canada, should be designated paid political content not “opinion.”)
A rapper is due to appear in court tomorrow in connection with a video in which threats involving firearms were allegedly made against activist Tommy Robinson.
Omar Abdirizak, 30, from Sparkbrook, Birmingham, is one of the first people in the UK to face new charges under the Online Safety Act.
Update: He says: “Tommy Robinson I got a message for you … (I’m) from Somalia and now, I’m in … the area’s called Sparkbrook. And you running your mouth off saying we are going to attack the mosques, any Muslim guys … no mate, we are gonna defend ourselves. Do you understand Tommy Robinson?”
There are then chants of Allahu Akbar from him and other men in the background. Firearms were then discussed in the video.
And from the desk of the Trump Russia fantasist …

So much for Keir Starmer’s ‘new dawn’ for Britain. He seems more likely to drag us back to the Dark Ages. According to reports, the PM is thinking about adopting a definition of ‘Islamophobia’ that could lead to people being censured if they say something too stinging about Islam. That is, if they commit the sin of blasphemy, if they make a scurrilous utterance about the Prophet or his followers. Starmer strode into Downing St a month ago wanging on about the ‘sunlight of hope’ – now he threatens to cover Britain with the black cloud of medieval censorship.
People in Iraq and members of human rights organizations are protesting against the law, but if adopted women and children are in danger.
On Sunday, the Iraqi Parliament held its first reading of a bill that allows girls as young as nine years old to be married. The bill would amend the Personal Status Law of 1959, which has been hailed as the most protective law for women in the Middle East.
The Personal Status Law was passed shortly after the fall of the Iraqi monarchy in 1958. The law put the governance of personal affairs, such as inheritance and marriage, in the hands of the state and took it out of the control of religious authorities. It also requires both men and women to be 18 years-old, or 15 years or older with permission of a judge and legal guardian, to be married under civil law.
The caliphate was destroyed, but persecution of Christians has continued unabated across the Middle East, Africa, and even in Europe.
Even though it was a friendly jibe as we drove over the oldest bridge into Mosul, being blamed for the 1916 Sykes-Picot Agreement, and all the ensuing problems that Iraq had endured for the next hundred years was, I felt, stretching collective British and French colonial guilt a little bit, at least in my mind.
As the Islamic State’s Caliphate had just been driven out, it was time, on the latest of my many visits to Iraq to help the ancient Christian community, to see if any Christians could safely return to the city once called Nineveh, where Jonah the prophet had preached.
Muslims block Toronto street in worship of satanic cult idol
WARMINGTON: Prayer service in busy downtown intersection not against the law
A Muslim mass prayer service – captured on videos – shut down one of Canada’s busiest intersections last Saturday, but cops say no laws were violated.
“In Canada, no permit is required to hold a demonstration, as peaceful assembly and expression, including prayers, are protected under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms,” Toronto Police spokesperson Stephanie Sayer said.
Even, police say, if such a demonstration inconveniences other citizens by snarling traffic and delaying public transit.

It’s been six weeks since a brazen, allegedly bigoted attack took place on the street in a major Canadian city. It should have been national news. Perhaps under different circumstances, it would have been.
A lesbian couple in Halifax Canada was beaten up by a group of men hurling homophobic slurs at them.
I’m still waiting for the nationwide condemnation by the left for this despicable homophobic hate crime.
The migrant stabbed his victim 111 times, before beheading him.
An extremely dangerous Somali migrant, who had previously killed a man by stabbing and beheading him, was inexplicably let out of a psychiatric ward for an escorted visit to the cinema on Thursday, August 8th, during which he escaped, reports media outlet Nius.de.
As far as breaches of the peace go, Dominic Cardy’s effort last week looked pretty tame. The former New Brunswick cabinet minister and current independent MLA was in Toronto with his wife when he noticed the ruckus from hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters thronging the city’s Yonge and Dundas intersection.
Mr. Cardy said in an interview that he then decided to exercise his own right to free expression by launching a one-man counterprotest, striding into the crowd and shouting “Free Palestine, from Hamas.”
And for that, he was arrested for breach of the peace by police, handcuffed, jailed for two hours and then released.

We have an antisemitism Czar. Her name is Deb. Deb is concerned at the silence she is hearing. Over the years I attended many pro-Israel protests and it resulted in myself and allies being labeled Islamophobes and racists by members of the Jewish community and other of our so called leaders in government and the press. Some of those accusers made careers virtue signaling their anti-racism and became proponents of DEI and CRT. The White working class was demonized as innately racist and deserving of humiliating re-education efforts.
This demonization was supported by our elites who used it to silence dissent and steamroll the mass immigration of incompatible cultures as they reworked Canada’s demographic into the malevolent multicultural nightmare we find ourselves facing today.
On Oct 7 our accusers were among those who sent out cries for help. Now Deb wonders where everybody is.
I agree with the excellent points that Kevin Lynch and Ian Thompson make here:
“Being against antisemitism is not good enough for non-jews — we need to speak out loudly and frequently. We need to push back against disinformation and separate the lies from the facts. We need to…

Port Coquitlam mayor Brad West has called on authorities to investigate a local imam who called for the annihilation of Jews and supporters of Israel.
He condemned the “vile hatred” espoused by Masjid Alhidaya’s Adnan Abyat, saying in no uncertain terms that such an ideology was not welcome in his community.

The vague adjective “Asian” is still deployed by some sections of the media to describe the ethnicity of sexual “grooming gangs”, which in towns such as Rotherham, Rochdale and Telford have involved men of predominantly Pakistani Muslim heritage. Now, a week after the horrific stabbing of three young girls in Southport was the catalyst for nationwide riots, the term is being used to describe gangs of mostly Muslim counter-protesters.
OTTAWA – After an independent review, Justice Minister Arif Virani announced Wednesday that Birju Dattani has agreed not to begin his appointment as chief commissioner of the Canadian Human Rights Commission on Thursday as planned.
Birju Dattani – Hateful Muslim
Virani launched the investigation after Canadian Jewish organizations raised concerns about allegations surrounding Dattani’s past activities.
Dattani, the first Muslim and racialized person to be appointed to the role, has previously denied allegations that he made anti-Israel statements, including what Conservatives characterize as a “justification of terrorism.”

Unsealed documents reveal past of Edmonton terror convict
An Edmonton gas station employee convicted in the U.K. of a terrorism offence came to the attention of the RCMP after returning to Canada from Lebanon in 2017, records obtained by Global News reveal.
Khaled Hussein
The unsealed court documents show that Khaled Hussein, sentenced to five years last week for joining extremist group Al-Muhajiroun in 2020, was born in Alberta but spent much of his life in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley.
At age seven, he moved with his family to Lebanon to learn Arabic and because “things were difficult for Muslims in Edmonton” following the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, his mother wrote in a witness statement.
