The prominent Swiss academic and Islam scholar Tariq Ramadan has been acquitted of charges of rape and sexual coercion against a woman in a Geneva hotel in 2008.
Ramadan was awarded around 151,000 Swiss francs ($167,000) in compensation from the Swiss canton of Geneva over the case.
The lawyer for the complainant immediately announced that she would appeal. The woman, a Swiss convert to Islam, had told the court she was raped on 28 October 2008.
Ten years ago today, Lee Rigby was murdered on the streets of south-east London. The 25-year-old soldier was heading back to his barracks in Woolwich when a car came out of nowhere and knocked him down. It was no accident. Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale, two British-born Islamist extremists, jumped out of the car, armed with knives and a meat cleaver.
This is the moment Muslim activists stormed a screening of a controversial Bollywood film that has sparked violent clashes in India amid claims it destroys ‘religious harmony’.
A group of protesters led by Shakeel Afsar, a Kashmiri independence activist, disrupted the screening of the The Kerala Story on Friday at a Cineworld cinema in Birmingham.
A 10-minute film uploaded to the British Muslim news website 5Pillars showed Mr Afsar, 35, with a group of demonstrators seen entering the cinema and causing the film to be paused.

Scandinavia’s answer to Pablo Escobar orchestrates much of the growing violence from Turkey
STOCKHOLM—One evening in early March, Swedish police asked the country’s version of “America’s Most Wanted” to broadcast photos of two young men wanted for a shooting on a rival drug gang in Uppsala, north of Stockholm.
Three hours later, unknown gunmen knocked on the door of Serdar Sarihan, the father of one of the suspects. They shot him dead while his wife and their other children were upstairs.
The killing, which Swedish authorities say they believe was a revenge shooting, opened a new chapter of brutality in a wave of gang violence that has turned Sweden, usually known as a peaceful welfare state, into a gun-homicide hot spot in Europe.
“Political Islam replaces the laws or interprets them differently so that they restrict the practice of other religions. It also works to change the culture of society — which puts it under great pressure — so that it becomes more radical and extreme, not only toward other religions but also toward other Islamic sects.” — catholicnewsagency.com, 2023, Libya.
France’s interior minister has appealed to the US for increased security assistance, saying that Islamist terrorism remains the “primary threat” to Europe ahead of next year’s Olympic Games in Paris.
Calling for greater collaboration between the French and US intelligence services, Gerald Darmanin said that “for Europeans and for France, the primary risk is Sunni Islamist terrorism”.
They call them safe houses, but they are the graves of our failed exaggerated tolerance.
“Two men executed for offending the Koran”. This happened recently in Iran (in the meantime, no eyebrows were raised as Teheran was elected to lead a UN Human Rights Forum), but it could have been in France, Holland, Germany, Sweden or England, given that large parts of Europe are becoming, in the words of Boualem Sansal, “would-be Islamic republics” and the only topic on which an academic today needs armed protection begins with “i” and ends with “m”.
On Saturday, May 13, Nakba Day was held at Dundas Square, in downtown Toronto.
The demonstration, organized by a litany of local anti-Israel organizations, was marketed as commemorating 75 years since the “nakba,” or Arabic for catastrophe, referring to Israel’s rebirth in 1948 and an effort to “resist against the ongoing settler colonial and imperial forces of Zionism!”
The term nakba is a specific word used by those who seek to delegitimize Israel’s existence as a Jewish State.
Al Quds Day Queens Park 2013
The comments at the article are worth your time to scroll through.
The Al Quds pic is from 10 years ago, 2013. I recall it well, as with the Pallies the police had us behind a rope on the other side of the sidewalk.
There are a number of children in the pic, many, many more attended. Children were always prominent at Al Quds Day, a demographic show of force.
Almost all are young adults now. Growing up they were educated in “anti-zionism” and those now old enough are likely educating their own children in the same manner.
And so in Canada we have nurtured a multi-generational hatred made possible by a maliciously tolerant immigration policy.
To answer the article nothing is done by our government media because for the most part they are sympathetic to the Islamist cause but also very afraid of being called Islamophobic.
How bad is it? In 2011 I covered a Pro-Assad Rally at Queen’s Park attended by a couple of thousand people. Yes you read that right, a Pro Bashar Assad rally, the Butcher of Syria. Only City TV showed up. They shot a short clip and scooted off. You can see the City crew at work in the video I shot. That seeming media indifference is deliberate, that way they avoid having to answer for the icky stuff.
Make no mistake the Islamists have the numbers. Islam is ascendant and Judaism is in decline. And with that decline comes loss of influence.
Politicians notice such things.
The Islamists have become an important vote bloc cultivated by our Uniparty.
Canada’s hospitality is beyond abused. Urban centres like the GTA may come to resemble Europe’s cities and I don’t mean that in a good way.
Whether Jews, Hindus or Christians nowhere does Islam peaceably coexist.
The alleged offences include rape, sexual activity with an underage girl and trafficking
Ten men have been accused of orchestrating “a large-scale” grooming operation in Rochdale with 74 alleged sexual offences against two teenage girls.
The offences, said to have been carried out between 2003 and 2008, include rape, sexual activity with an underage girl and trafficking.
Harriet Lavin, prosecuting, described the gang’s alleged offences as a “high-profile, large-scale grooming operation” which had led to 91 individuals being investigated.
The “pure genocide” of Christians in Nigeria, as it has been characterized by some internationalobservers, has reached new levels, according to an April 10, 2023 report by the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law, also known as “Intersociety”, a nonprofit human rights organization based in Nigeria.
According to the report, since the Islamic uprising began in 2009, 52,250 Christians “have been butchered or hacked to death” in Nigeria. With each passing year, the number of slain grows. In just the first 100 days of this year, “no fewer than 1,041 defenseless Christians were hacked to death by Nigeria’s Jihadists … [from] 1st Jan to 10th April 2023.”
Among those facing trial are students who provided information about the whereabouts of the murdered teacher and an Islamist preacher who allegedly communicated with the terrorist online.
Fourteen individuals connected to the teenage Islamist who beheaded a French history teacher in 2020 will be prosecuted for terror-related charges after authorities confirmed their intention this week to pursue associates of the 18-year jihadist Abdullakh Anzorov for complicity in murder.
A Chechen-born Islamist and refugee, Anzorov, killed history teacher Samuel Paty over a dispute about showing cartoons of Muhammed to students in the Parisian suburb of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine in October 2020 in an incident that highlighted the growing gulf between the French Republic and Islamist extremism.
There is no such thing as “Islamist extremism,” there is only Islam.
West Side Highway terrorist Sayfullo Saipov received over eight life sentences Wednesday — after going on an unrepentant hour-long rant insinuating his victims’ tears pale in comparison to the blood and tears of the Muslim people.
After victims spoke for over two hours about the horrors they endured and blasted Saipov as a “waste of space,” “garbage” and a “monster,” Manhattan federal Judge Vernon Broderick handed down the maximum sentence of eight lifetimes in prison, to be followed by another 260 years behind bars.
It is not only pupils. The first Muslim principal of a Catholic school is in Flanders.
“In Roubaix, Muslims are the majority in Catholic schools. In the northern districts of Marseille, the Saint-Joseph-Viala private Catholic school has nearly 100 percent Muslim pupils. In the Catholic schools of Seine-Saint-Denis they exceed 50 percent”.
The investigation by the French magazine Marianne released this week is mind-boggling.
“Since the late 1960s, the admission of ‘non-Christian pupils’ to Catholic schools has led the Church to consider this problem.” After some hesitation, Catholic Education has released a guide for its leaders: “Muslims in Catholic Schools”. It is recommended to involve a leader of a mosque or an association, unthinkable in the public sphere. “How to deal with students who refuse to go to the swimming pool during Ramadan?”.
A former Conservative senator has won a defamation case she says was designed to intimidate and silence her, in a ruling she says will set a precedent for free speech and fair comment, including on Twitter.
Former journalist Linda Frum this week won the case brought by a Montreal-based Arab-language journal after she tweeted about it supporting Hezbollah, which is listed as a terrorist organization by the Canadian government.
