Urooj Rahman is an attorney, not a bartender, but she knows her cocktails. She tossed a Molotov cocktail at an NYPD cruiser during the 2020 George Floyd riots in New York City. But now, in asking for a light sentence, she is serving up a different cocktail: vodka with a dash of Islamophobia. And really, it’s the Islamophobia that gives it its flavor.
In the past few years, the Palestinians have made it a habit to step up their manufactured incitement against Israel and Jews on the eve of Jewish holidays. This year has not been an exception.
In the days preceding the Jewish New Year holiday, celebrated in mid-September, Palestinian leaders, spokesmen and factions went on a frenzied campaign of threats, lies and misinformation that triggered a wave of violence and terrorism against Jews.
High school girls have become the latest Iranians to join anti-government protests in large numbers, as the country mourned a teenager killed in the first days of protests.
Nika Shahkarami, who lived in Tehran and would have turned 17 on Sunday, vanished in September. Her family found her body in a detention centre’s morgue 10 days later, BBC Persian reported.
On Tuesday, President Ebrahim Raisi called for unity against the protests even as they continued to grow, bringing together Iranians across ethnic and class divides, despite the government crackdown.
… But it also showed something else — how out of touch the Trudeau government has managed to get on the issue of how to deal with Tehran, at political risk to itself.
It was notable in Richmond Hill that the new Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre, managed to make sure he was front and centre before the assembled thousands, denouncing both the Iranian regime and the government’s failure to put sanctions on Tehran’s notorious Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
Justin’s handlers know that support for Iran’s regime is strong among the Shia Muslim community in Canada and particularly within the GTA, a key piece of the LPC’s strength.
Estimates are up to one quarter of Canada’s Muslims are Shia.
Justin will not be allowed to alienate a significant vote bloc.

Iran’s supreme leader has blamed the US and Israel for the anti-government protests sweeping the country, in his first public comments on the unrest.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said “riots” had been “engineered” by Iran’s arch-enemies and their allies, and alleged that Qurans had been burned.
He also called on security forces to be ready to deal with further unrest.
The protests – the biggest challenge to his rule for a decade – were sparked by the death in custody of a woman.
Belgian academic and economist Philippe Van Parijs explained to the newspaper De Standaard what happens when you lose national identity. “Brussels can no longer be called Belgium,” said Van Parijs, adding that the rest of Belgium is becoming more and more like Brussels.
Philippe Van Parijs had conducted a demographic study. His discoveries will surprise only those who want to remain blind. In ten years, the percentage of Brussels residents who have both parents with Belgian citizenship has gone down from just 36 to 26 percent. “There are more Brussels residents of Moroccan origin than Flemings or Walloons”.
In the past few days, the European Parliament has voted to isolate (when to expel?) Viktor Orbán’s Hungary. The real clash between Brussels and Budapest is over immigration. Not to all immigration, as Hungary welcomed 15,000 Ukrainians in a single day. No, only Islamic immigration.
When Kevin Paltridge’s son Corey was killed in the 2002 Bali bombings, the devastated father turned to other Australians whose children had died suddenly to try to cope with his own loss.
He quit his job as an airline supervisor and went to work at a funeral home, where he worked until his retirement a decade ago.
“I wanted to meet people who had lost kids,” he says.
It was a night that Leicester will not forget. Although tensions between sections of the Muslim and Hindu communities had been building since May, the scale of disturbances caught local authorities off guard, sending shockwaves all the way to India.
Violence, in which 16 police officers were injured while holding the line between rival groups of young men, has served a warning of how extremist agendas are blowing in from elsewhere, threatening a relatively harmonious tradition of multicultural coexistence.
Iran’s Islamic regime is the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world. The regime’s greatest victims are the Iranian people.
Iranians have been fighting to be free for the last 43 years. A series of protests have broken out in Iran after the killing of a 22-year-old Iranian woman, Mahsa Amini, who was beaten to death by the morality police in Tehran.
Iran has arrested a young woman who defied morality police by eating in a restaurant without wearing a hijab, in an image that went viral on social media and inspired thousands of anti-regime protesters.
The photograph showed Donya Rad eating breakfast in a restaurant in Tehran, alongside a female friend who was also not wearing a headscarf.
France to close another mosque, bringing total mosques closed 24
PARIS (AA): France announced it will close another mosque, accusing the imam of being radicalized, according to media reports Wednesday.
The Interior Ministry has started the process of closing the Obernai Mosque in the Bas-Rhin area, according to French BFM TV and Le Figaro.
Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said on Twitter that 23 “separatist places of worship” have been closed in the past two years.
He added that the closures came after a request by the president to fight “Islamist separatism.”
“Islamist separatism” that’s a very telling term.
But the numbers don’t lie … A total of 22,000 people are under surveillance by the country’s intelligence services of which 4,600 are foreigners, said the minister.
Out of the 4,600 foreigners, there are 1,200 foreigners that are actively under surveillance, and 780 foreigners were deported during the last four years, he added.
The barbarians are inside the gates …

Any suggestion racism played a part in Sgt. Andrew Harnett’s traffic stop of a Calgary teen charged with the officer’s murder was a figment of the accused killer’s imagination, a prosecutor said Thursday.
Crown lawyer Mike Ewenson said there was nothing in the conduct of Harnett and two other officers who arrived on the scene to show the teen feared he was being racially profiled.
American Islamists rushed to offer tributes this week to a radical Egyptian cleric and spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood who had a long-established support for violent jihad and murdering Jews.
Not long after Iran’s ultra-conservative president issued an edict for greater enforcement of the religious code, three women wearing black chadors patrolled the streets of Rasht almost every day in a green-and-white van that marked them out as members of the morality police.
President Raisi’s order on July 5 commanded the Guidance Patrols to seek out women failing to wear their headscarves properly. It represented an attempt to enforce Islamic law across a younger and increasingly secular population.
