UK: Elderly Victims of Rape Are Silenced

Sharia strikes in care homes.

West Yorkshire is ground zero for Muslim rapists. The grooming-gang hot spots of Keighley, Batley, Bradford, Leeds, Kirklees and Dewsbury all fall under the West Yorkshire banner.

And while we have all been anticipating more horrific reporting and cover-ups regarding the rapes that are happening on the streets and in people’s houses, a Freedom Of Information (FOI) request has revealed that sexual assaults have continued to be common in care homes in the area for at least the past couple of years. “200 residents of care establishments across the region, including nursing homes, were victims of sexual offences between the start of 2018 and the end of 2021.” Twenty-five of the victims were staff members, and only one of the assaults has resulted in a charge. And yet we were promised, years ago, that all of these cover-ups and failings by police, social services, care home staff, politicians, and more had been sorted, that the cracks in the system were all identified and fixed, that lessons had been learnt, and that every female in the care system was now processed dutifully and safely sheltered by every protection agency in the land.

Four go on trial in Paris over jihadist murder of French priest

Four alleged accomplices in the murder of an 85-year-old French priest go on trial in Paris on Monday after years of investigations into one of the most grisly jihadist attacks that have rocked France in recent years.

Father Jacques Hamel had his throat slit at the foot of the altar while celebrating mass on July 26, 2016, at his church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, a working-class suburb of Rouen in northwest France.

The two 19-year-old assailants, Adel Kermiche and Abdel-Malik Petitjean, also seriously injured one of the worshippers they took hostage before being shot and killed by police as they tried to leave the church.

Paris attacks trial: ‘How I persuaded Salah Abdeslam to open up’

In a Paris courtroom this week, lawyer Claire Josserand-Schmidt stood face to face with Salah Abdeslam, the only surviving suspect from a gang of violent jihadists who killed 130 people in Paris six years ago.

As a lawyer for the victims and their families, her job was to cross-examine France’s most high-profile defendant.

“It would have been much easier for everyone to have to deal with a heartless monster,” she told the BBC. “The human being is more subtle. I didn’t want to have a confrontation with him. The point is to learn as much as possible.”

Raging mob stone to death mentally-ill man who ‘burnt the Koran’ in Pakistan

Crowds snatch ‘blasphemer’, 41, from police then brutally kill him and hang body from tree in remote village

A man was stoned to death in a remote village in eastern Pakistan for allegedly desecrating the Koran, police have said.

The custodian of local mosque said he saw Mushtaq Ahmed, 41, burning the Muslim holy book inside the mosque on Saturday evening and informed the police.

The subsequent violence took place in a village in the district of Khanewal in Punjab province.

This is like scoring a touchdown in Islam!

Sundance Film Festival Under Fire For ‘Islamophobia’ For Documentary About Rehabilitation of Jihadis

Ilhan Omar’s notorious “Islamophobia” bill doesn’t ever get around to defining what “Islamophobia” actually is, and there is a reason for that: the word is used not just to refer to vigilante attacks against innocent Muslims, which are never justified, but to any and all criticism of Islam, including honest discussion of the motives and goals of jihad terrorists. The insidious aspect of her bill is that it could be used to shut down such discussion and leave us unable to speak publicly about a real threat. An indication of how this can happen has just come from last month’s Sundance Film Festival, which featured a documentary about jihadis getting rehabilitated and has had two staffers resign so far over its unpardonable “Islamophobia.”

Model Afghan Refugee Sexually Assaulted Woman Who Helped Resettle Him Police Chief promises to educate Afghans about “American legal and social expectations.”

They work quickly.

As soon as Haji Matiullah Matie arrived in the United States, he became the poster boy for Afghan refugees.

In November 2021, as swarms of unvetted Afghan refugees airlifted by Biden with Taliban permission arrived in the United States, military social media accounts made him the face of Operation Allies Welcome and promoted stories about his reunion with an officer he had known.

Nearly half of French Jews hide religious symbols, finds AJC study on anti-Semitism

An increasing number of French Jews believe that anti-Semitism is widespread in their country, according to a new survey conducted by the American Jewish Committee.

According to the study, conducted in late 2021, 85 percent of Jews said that anti-Semitism is widespread. That number is up nearly 20 points from a similar survey conducted just two years earlier that found 67 percent of French Jews said Jew-hatred was widespread.

Further, 73 percent of Jews have been victims of anti-Semitism. While the vast majority of incidents were derogatory remarks, some 20 percent of the reported incidents were labeled as “physical violence.”

That’s how diversity and multicult work!

I did not kill anyone, says main suspect in Paris attacks trial

Salah Abdeslam, giving evidence for first time, says he did not ‘inflict so much as a scratch on anyone’

The main surviving suspect on trial over the 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris took the stand for the first time on Wednesday, telling a court that he had never killed or wounded anyone and was not a danger to the public.

Salah Abdeslam is suspected of being a member of a group of jihadists who carried out a coordinated series of bombings and shootings across the French capital that left 130 people dead and hundreds of others injured.

Called to be cross-examined for the first time in the marathon trial, he said: “I did not kill anyone and I did not injure anyone. I didn’t inflict so much as a scratch on anyone. It’s important for me to say this.”

CAIR Doubles Down on ‘Illegal Surveillance’ Charges

The Islamist group has expanded its bogus accusations and is asking the Department of Justice to investigate its critics.

Ever since the Ohio headquarters of the Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) went public in December with accusations that Steven Emerson’s Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) was illegally surveilling the Ohio Muslim community, CAIR has driven the public narrative with the assistance of a gullible and ignorant media.

Like a fox demanding an investigation of the henhouse, CAIR sent a letter to the Department of Justice on January 31, calling for it to “launch an investigation to determine whether Steve Emerson or IPT broke any federal civil rights statutes or criminal laws by targeting the Muslim Community.”

How are Gulf countries coming to terms with their history of slavery?

Modern slavery is still widespread in the Arab states of the Gulf region, where millions of migrant workers are forced to work under grueling conditions with little or no pay.

The“kafala” system, for example, a practice still common across much of the region’s countries, allows employers to hire unskilled workers from places like Africa and South Asia. In return, workers give up their passports and the possibility to leave the country or change jobs without permission from their employers.

But the region’s record of benefiting from forced labor isn’t a recent development. Traditional slavery, where people were kidnapped and sold as slaves far from home, was still legal and practiced in large parts of the Gulf region as late as the 1970s.

Violent clashes over hijab ban in southern India force schools to close

The Indian state of Karnataka has shut its schools for three days after the regional government backed schools imposing a ban on hijabs, leading to widespread protests and violence.

The issue began in January, when six female Muslim students staged a weeks-long protest after they were told to either remove their headscarves or stop attending class at a government college in the district of Udupi.

Last week, other colleges in the state began to enforce bans after some Hindu students, backed by rightwing Hindu groups, protested that if hijabs were allowed in classrooms, they should be allowed to wear saffron shawls. Saffron is the colour that has become commonly associated with Hindu nationalism.

UK: ‘Jihadi’ Imam, who supported Al-Qaeda terrorist Aafia Siddiqui and murder of Salman Taseer, allowed to open nursery school

A radical Islamic cleric by the name of Muhammad Asim Hussain has been granted permission to operate a kindergarten for children by the education regulator in the United Kingdom, reported Daily Mail. This is despite the fact that Hussain had openly expressed his support for Pakistani Al-Qaeda terrorist Aafia Siddiqui and the murderer of former Pakistani Governor Salman Taseer.

Two suspected British Islamic State recruits seized by Taliban at border

Two suspected Islamic State recruits, one of them carrying a British passport, were seized by the Taliban when they tried to slip into Afghanistan last autumn through its northern border, the Guardian can reveal.

The men, who were carrying more than £10,000 in cash, military fatigues and night-vision goggles in their bags, were arrested after a tipoff from Uzbekistan, according to a Taliban source with knowledge of the operation.

“There was one passport from England and one from another country in Europe,” said the source. He discussed the men’s capture at the border crossing of Hairatan on condition of anonymity as he was not authorised to speak to journalists.
