WTF?

This is the video that went viral. It was sent me but I declined to post it noting it was all hearsay.

Canadian refugee applicant in ICE custody says he crossed border accidentally

OTTAWA — A Canadian refugee applicant from Bangladesh who is being held in a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in Buffalo says he crossed the border into the U.S. by mistake — and now Canada won’t take him back.

Mahin Shahriar told The Canadian Press he entered the U.S. on May 12 after what he believes was a human trafficking attempt.

Shahriar said he was struggling with depression and “a friend” offered him a place to stay for a few days near Montreal.

Aschaffenburg Germany: Afghan knife attacker goes on trial

About nine months after a deadly knife attack on a group of nursery school children in Bavaria, court proceedings have begun to determine whether the suspect can be held criminally responsible.

The Aschaffenburg District Court is examining whether Enamullah O., a 28-year-old Afghan man who is believed to suffer from mental illness, was legally sane at the time of the January 22, 2025, attack.

Prosecutors, citing a forensic-psychiatric report suggesting insanity, are seeking his permanent confinement in a psychiatric hospital.

Prosecutors say there is no indication the man had extremist or terrorist motivations.

Pro-Hamas hackers hijack airport loudspeakers across North America, spew anti-Trump, -Netanyahu slurs – and causing delays

Passengers at airports in Pennsylvania and British Columbia were stunned Tuesday when loudspeakers suddenly blasted pro-Hamas messages and slurs against President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Videos posted by travelers showed the unauthorized recordings echoing through terminals at Harrisburg International Airport in Pennsylvania and Kelowna International Airport in Canada.

The truth about Sharia law in Britain

Islamic law has a far more pernicious influence than our political class will admit.

In an incendiary speech to the United Nations General Assembly last month, Donald Trump claimed that the UK wants ‘to go to Sharia law’. UK prime minister Keir Starmer called the claim ‘nonsense’ and ‘ridiculous’. But could there be a grain of truth behind the US president’s bluster?

The Young American Woman Who Fights For Our Enemies

“Glory to all the martyrs. Glory to the Axis of Resistance. May we witness victory in our lifetimes,” a young American woman told her Iranian hosts in a clip circulated in July. “Marg bar Âmrikâ. Marg bar Israel”—in English: “Death to America, Death to Israel.”

The woman’s name is Calla Walsh, and her journey to that stage in Tehran is a strange one. The child of professors, Walsh, now 21, took an interest in politics in high school. Her campaigns for prominent figures like Boston city councilor Julia Mejia and Senator Ed Markey once earned her praise in Boston magazine as part of the “Gen Z” takeover of Boston politics. Four years later, Walsh’s latest campaign is in Lebanon, where she effectively serves as a mouthpiece for the Axis of Resistance. She now considers the label “terrorist” a “badge of honor.” Walsh did not respond to requests for comment for this article.

Jamie Sarkonak: Anti-Israel artist blames ‘Zionist narratives’ for cancelled TDSB workshop with students

On Thursday, the Toronto District School Board had planned to put more than 2,600 students in an Arabic calligraphy workshop run by a niqab-wearing woman who uses her art to call for the obliteration of Israel. It was cancelled just in time, but questions remain: Why was such an event approved in the first place? And why isn’t the school board reviewing its vendor screening procedures?

Wave of knife attacks underscores Germany’s struggle to assimilate refugees

LONDON — A brutal August knife attack on an American who stepped in to defend young women from harassment on a train in Dresden, Germany, has reignited a fiery debate over immigration policies that increasingly have become the focus of national elections.

John Rudat, a part-time model, was slashed across the face in an attack that is expected to leave him permanently disfigured. A person briefly detained in the case is a Syrian refugee, but officials have not arrested or identified any suspected assailant.

The attack follows other high-profile crimes this year and in years past involving migrants who have flocked to Germany to take advantage of the country’s immigration-friendly policies.

Role Of Church Elites In Europe’s Suicide

Abandoned church in Europe

I wrote something on Friday here about Pope Leo’s recent exhortation to love the poor, as Christians should, but complaining, and complaining bitterly, about the part of the document in which he said Christians have a moral duty to open the door wide to migrants. I didn’t send that to the entire list of subscribers, just the paid ones (there are seven times more unpaid subscribers than paid ones), but enough of those who saw the piece put it, or parts of it, on Facebook that I’ve gained over 100 new subscribers in the past 48 hours. That has never happened. So I’m going to post it again to the entire list today, below. There’s clearly demand for it.

First-cousin marriage linked to terrorist financing, money laundering and people trafficking, experts warn

The storm over first-cousin marriage deepened last night after experts linked it to terrorist financing, money laundering and people trafficking.

Tories called for the marriages to be banned after The Mail on Sunday revealed last month that NHS guidance promotes their ‘benefits’ despite an associated increase in birth defects.

The marriages are also connected to unregulated, untraceable ‘hawala’ financing – a way of transferring money worldwide that depends on family ties and doesn’t leave a paper trace.

London council omits anti-Semitism from list of hate crimes

A London council left anti-Semitism off a list of hate crimes while including many other forms of prejudice, including transphobia and Islamophobia.

Tower Hamlets “cropped” the reference to anti-Jewish discrimination from a website page promoting support for National Hate Crime Awareness Week.

For four years, the poster on the web page has not made any reference to anti-Semitism, while at the same time listing disablism, homophobia, Islamophobia, racism and transphobia.

A mere accident I’m sure.
