‘Squad’ member Ilhan Omar’s daughter has taken to selling her used clothes to pay the bills after she was suspended from college for her pro-Palestine protesting.
Isra Hirsi, 22, took to Instagram this week to share how her life is going since being suspended from Columbia University’s liberal arts college, Barnard College, last year.
‘Unemployment got me,’ she said, adding that she is selling her clothes on thrifting platform Depop.
OTTAWA — The Palestinian ambassador to Canada says she feels Ottawa is on the brink of officially recognizing statehood for her people, as she also takes note of tougher language from Canada on Israel’s actions in Gaza.
“Accountability means everything to the Palestinian people. That’s all we are looking for,” said Mona Abuamara, who is at the end of her four-year term as the chief representative of the Palestinian General Delegation to Canada.

Who knew that bringing people from other cultures might create problems? Yes, problems such as “you can’t buy a wife here,” or women don’t like to be touched in public.
Yes, you can’t make this stuff up, but it is reality in a place called Finland. Remember that quiet country where Finnish blondes made the cover of certain popular magazines? This is not your father’s Finland, if you know what I mean.
The Department of Immigration in a briefing note admits it never sought “comprehensive security screening” of suspected Egyptian terrorists.
Two Egyptian nationals were arrested in 2024 for plotting an attack on Toronto, and are in custody until their 2026 trial. Then-Immigration Minister Marc Miller at the time defended his department’s handling of the case.
Today marks the 20-year anniversary of the most lethal terrorist attack on British soil of this century so far: the 7/7 London Bombings. It was the first Islamist suicide attack in the UK, and the deadliest act of terror since the 1988 Lockerbie bombing. Even though I was a 15-year-old schoolboy at the time, I remember the 7/7 attacks as if they were yesterday. Fifty-two people were murdered, with a further 784 injured, by four jihadists: Mohammad Sidique Khan, Shehzad Tanweer, Shehzad Tanweer and Germaine Lindsay. Three were British-born sons of Pakistani Muslim migrants, with the other being a Jamaica-born convert to Islam.
Prosecution seeks life sentence on terrorism grounds for alleged mass killing threat in Montreal
A Crown prosecutor is now treating a man’s alleged threat of a mass killing in Montreal in May as a terrorist act and wants to secure a life sentence for the accused.
Mohammed Abdullah Warsame, 51, was arrested by the RCMP last month and charged with one count of uttering threats. According to the Mounties, he allegedly told an employee at a local homeless shelter in late May that he wanted to “commit an attack with the goal of killing a large number of people.”
A six-year-old girl has allegedly been forced to marry a 45-year-old man in Afghanistan after she was given away for money.
The haunting photo of an older man and a little girl standing together horrified even the Taliban, who intervened with the union.
The youngster had allegedly been exchanged by her father for money to a man who already has two wives, it was reported by Amu.tv.
A Shiite Ashura procession held on Sunday, July 6th, near Milan’s central station has sparked fierce public backlash over the treatment of women participants.
A new generation is being radicalised
The grandiose Makkah Masjid Mosque in Leeds marked an impressive contrast with the surrounding terraced properties, as I walked through the tightly packed red-brick Victorian streets leading onto Royal Park Road. While the austere, graffitied houses still bore signs of poverty and neglect, their metal security gates indicating a grim sense of insecurity, the mosque stood as an oasis of calm and tranquillity.
This down-at-heel cosmopolitan community, home to immigrants, artists and students, had always been poor but peaceful. Yet on that afternoon 20 years ago, something had changed. The atmosphere was tense: the familiar sounds of Asian music, reverberating from youthful sound systems, had been replaced by a chorus of police sirens, and the colourful aura of the storefronts was lit up by flashing blue lights.
The dramatic moment when two brothers allegedly assaulted police officers as they tried to arrest them at Manchester Airport last summer was shown to a jury today.
Captured from two angles by CCTV cameras, it shows the violence which broke out when police attempted to detain Mohammed Fahir Amaaz at a pay station.
He had been identified as having headbutted a passenger at a Starbucks café in the arrivals area minutes before, Liverpool Crown Court has heard.
Manchester Airport Attackers apparently head-butted a man in Starbucks caught on CCTV just before the vicious assault on the police officers.

Aaaaaaand the clip is out… CCTV of the men before the police kicked one of them. I knew it would be bad, but the men are worse than I expected… I think this concludes the investigation. Reinstate the police officer https://t.co/qdMviPqwyN pic.twitter.com/zA1M1C1w6g

After the first few months, one of Germany’s pilot projects—requiring unemployed asylum seekers to enroll in community service or have their social benefits cut—has produced abysmal results, as every other migrant with work obligations refused to show up, despite the incentives and threat of sanctions.
The data was reported by Udo Recktenwald, the CDU district administrator of St. Wendel in Saarland, which joined three other CDU-led districts this spring in expanding a program launched last year, hoping to serve as a successful integration model that could be later implemented across the country.
On June 22, Muslims murdered 25 Christians — mostly women and children — and wounded nearly 100 more inside a church in Syria.
According to eyewitnesses, one or two armed men entered the Mar Elyas Greek Orthodox Church in Damascus during mass, when it was packed with some 350 worshippers, and indiscriminately opened fire before detonating an explosive belt inside the sanctuary.
“When we got to the church, we found the doorway filled with body parts,” said a relief helper who arrived soon after the attack. Photos showed charred and blood-splattered floors, with shrapnel peppering the church walls.
There are extraordinary secret surveillance images – now largely forgotten – that in their own grainy and mysterious way, tell the story of missed opportunities that maybe, just maybe, could have stopped the horrific suicide attacks that took place in London 20 years ago.
They are images of the ringleader of the 7/7 bombings – first caught on camera at an al-Qaeda-associated training camp in the Lake District in 2001.
Two more images from 2004 show him – name and intentions then unknown – meeting a different cell of bomb plotters outside London and being followed by an MI5 team as he made his way back to Leeds.
