Shireen Abu Akleh, a reporter for Al Jazeera, was killed by a bullet Wednesday as the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) hunted for jihad terrorists in Jenin. That much is certain. But who actually fired the bullet is a matter of significant dispute. The Palestinians claim that the IDF shot Abu Akleh in cold blood; however, Palestinians were firing guns in the area at the time as well. Palestinian leaders have rebuffed Israeli requests for a joint investigation and even refused to allow Israeli officials to examine the bullet that killed Abu Akleh, despite the fact that such an examination would likely definitively establish who is responsible for her death.

Germany: Knife attack on train leaves 5 wounded – Muslim suspect a known wolf prone to ‘religious radicalization’
Several people are being treated in hospital after being injured during an attack on a train in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), officials said on Friday.
Herbert Reul, the NRW state interior minister, said six people were wounded, including the suspected attacker. Reul said the suspect struck passengers “indiscriminately and arbitrarily.”
Reul also said that “based on everything that we know so far,” investigators believed the perpetrator’s intent was to harm as many people as possible.
More Islamic Death Threats in Europe: Dutch MP Targeted Twice
Last month, a Dutch Member of Parliament, Geert Wilders — the leader of the Party for Freedom, which is the largest opposition party in the Netherlands’ Parliament — received two fatwas. Fatwas, officially, are Islamic religious opinions; they sometimes contain calls, however, to kill whomever might be considered insufficiently supportive of Islam or its prophet, Mohammad.
Wilders has dedicated his life to supporting freedom of speech and religious tolerance, and pointing out problems in radical, violent Islamist extremism. Because of this, he has been the target of frequent death threats by Islamist leaders. There are many who appear to prefer religious conformity, restricted speech and often the death penalty for what they might consider blasphemy.
Europe’s publishers self-censor on Islam
When Rushdie was published, bookstores were attacked and others refused to sell the book, but the publisher stood firm. Not today.
When Salman Rushdie published The Satanic Verses in 1989, Viking Penguin, the British and American publisher of the novel, was subjected to daily threats from Islamists. As Daniel Pipes wrote, the London office resembled “a battlefield”, with police on guard, metal detectors and an escort for visitors. At the New York office, trained dogs sniffed mail packages and the offices were called a “sensitive place.”
Many bookstores were attacked and many others refused to sell the book. Viking spent three million dollars on security measures, but it never faltered. Today, Western publishers all self-censor. And London capitulates to intimidation.
Former Guantánamo prisoner on trial in France for extremism
An Algerian preacher who spent eight years in the US-run Guantánamo Bay prison has gone on trial in France for allegedly encouraging several young men to join the Islamic State group.
Saber Lahmar, a 52-year-old Algerian released by the US in 2008 and taken in afterwards by France, has been charged with encouraging jihadists to head to Iraq and Syria to fight for the extremist group in 2015.
Speaking mostly in Arabic at the start of his trial in Paris on Tuesday, Lahmar denied having links to Islamist groups in France and suggested he was being persecuted because of his religion.

En Marche! Eid Mubarak, France!
The mass gatherings at the end of Ramadan in Europe were the ummah displaying its takeover in public.
6,000 faithful celebrated the end of Ramadan at the Delaune stadium in Saint-Denis, outside Paris. When the crowd arrived at the stadium, members of the Amal association directed the men to the entrances of the two main courts, behind the grandstand. “The women at the back.”
Even the tennis courts welcomed the devotees. The fences were festooned with green balloons, the color of Islam. The “Allahu Akbar” rang out from the loudspeakers placed in the four corners of the stadium. The same scenes took place in dozens. of other stadiums in France and in small and medium-sized cities: in Garges, Bagneux, Poissy, Créteil, Ivry-sur-Seine, Argenteuil, Athis-Mons, Noisy-Le-Grand …
At the stadium of Mosson of Montpellier, 10,000 faithful in prayer. In Vandœuvre-lès-Nancy, a town of 30,000 inhabitants, 5,000 gathered in prayer at the stadium. Same scenes in Gennevilliers. We would be wrong to think that it is a test of strength for Islam The mayors of these cities showed up at stadiums to nurture their electorate.

Swedish watchdog closes two Islamic schools for radicalising pupils
On Thursday, the Swedish Schools Inspectorate announced that it had revoked approvals for the Imanskolan Foundation and the Framstegsskolan Foundation, based on warnings from Sweden’s Säpo security police.
Säpo had complained about both the management at the schools, and the learning environment, judging the school leadership unsuitable to conduct school activities.
Sweden and the crisis of integration
Bombings, shootings and rioting are on the rise in Sweden. We need to talk about why.
Something is rotten in the state of Sweden. Grenade attacks have soared in recent years. Sweden is now the only country other than Mexico in which police record the number of grenade attacks. Explosions in general are on the rise. ‘Sweden’s 100 explosions this year: What’s going on?’, a bamboozled BBC asked in 2019. In 2020 there were more than 200 explosions and 360 shootings. The murder rate for 2020 was Sweden’s highest in 18 years: 124 people were killed and 39 per cent of the killings involved guns. Sweden is the only country in Europe in which fatal shootings have surged since the year 2000. Even the once Sweden-adoring Guardian has had to admit, with not a little perplexion, that Sweden has gone from having ‘one of the lowest rates of gun violence on the continent to one of the highest in less than a decade’.
Conservative senator demands to know why man linked to terrorist group is allowed to live in Canada

CBC Floats LPC Israel Policy Trial Balloon
Claims that Israel is imposing ‘apartheid’ on Palestinians put new pressure on Trudeau Liberals
Two cornerstones of the Trudeau government’s foreign policy have been its public statements in defence of human rights around the world and its less-publicized support for Israel at the United Nations.
Now, a series of reports by the world’s leading human rights organizations accusing Israel of employing a policy of apartheid in its treatment of Palestinians have put the focus on the tension between those two positions.
Canada doesn’t usually dispute Amnesty International’s conclusions — but the federal government has had little to say about Amnesty’s report formally accusing the Israeli government of building an apartheid state in its occupied territories.
The CBC is testing the waters on behalf of the LPC with this article. The call to “officially” label Israel an apartheid state is proceeding on a number of fronts and is likely to succeed, the Liberals will use that label to alter policy and harvest the goodwill they have cultivated among the Islamists in Canada, a vote bloc they helped create.
The Liberal and Conservative party’s are both guilty of deliberately altering Canadian society for the worse through ruinous immigration policy. Multiculturalism & Diversity are nothing more than the bludgeons used to divide and conquer, ask questions and you will be declared a racist for complaining about the mess created by their cynical identity politics.
Florida Man Must Write Essay About Massacre of Gays That Wasn’t About Gays
“My Florida Man stories are way more fun than yours,” PJ’s resident expert on all things Florida Man, Stephen Green, said to me, and he was right. But this one does have a bit of that quintessential Florida man appeal: a Florida man has offended the gods of multiculturalism and has been given an odd sentence designed to appease those outraged deities. But if he completes his assignment properly, he won’t end up appeasing them at all. If that isn’t a Florida Man situation, what is?
