Colleyville Texas synagogue siege: hostage-taker named as Briton Malik Faisal Akram

A man who died after taking four people hostage at a Texas synagogue has been named by the FBI as 44-year-old British national Malik Faisal Akram.

Akram began a standoff with police after disrupting a religious service at the Congregation Beth Israel in Colleyville, in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area, and taking hostages including the rabbi. He released one hostage unharmed after six hours.

More than 10 hours after the siege began, members of the FBI’s hostage rescue team stormed the synagogue to free the three remaining hostages. They were said to be “alive and well” after the siege had been brought to an end.

The Guardian is still searching for motive but wishes to ensure its readers that Islam has mothing to do with Islam and that White Supremacist Jews probably put poor Malik up to it.

The Islamists Around New York’s Mayor Eric Adams Love Jihad

“Allah is our goal. The Prophet is our leader. The Koran is our constitution. Jihad is our way.”

Imam Talib Abdur-Rashid believes that Muslims were in America before Columbus and spread their religion to the Indians, and that a California earthquake was Allah’s warning to America.

The Imam defended his refusal to celebrate July 4th by comparing the founding of America and Israel to dropping atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Rashid suggested that the Charlie Hebdo terror attack and the ISIS attack on the Mohammed cartoon contest in Texas were “examples of ‘chickens coming home to roost’”.

What’s going wrong in Britain’s mosques?

Ed Husain’s Among the Mosques explores our diverse and divided Muslim communities.

“… However, towards the end of Among the Mosques, Husain reaches a sober conclusion. He concludes that it is the literalists who have gained the upper hand:

‘After travelling the length and breadth of Great Britain, meeting Muslims from every denomination, it is clear to me that blind reliance on scripture and the clerics is overwhelmingly strong within British Islam. Adherence to the seventh-century Koran, ninth-century hadith and 10th- and 11th-century Islamic scholarship is deeply embedded.’

He feels that three distinct trends are at work among Britain’s Muslim communities. First, communalism, whereby what might have been a private, religious identity is becoming increasingly public and political. Second, clericalism, in which the power of clerics is subverting the authority of the state. And finally, caliphism, which encourages Muslims to believe that secular Britain is flawed and failing…”

Hook-handed hate preacher Abu Hamza’s toxic family

Career crook Tito ibn Sheikh appeared in the dock at Southwark Crown Court this week.

But his crime — plotting to launder hundreds of thousands of pounds of stolen money for which he was sentenced to nearly four years — was perhaps less shocking than his notorious family background.

He was born Hamza Mustafa Kamel before changing his name to Tito ibn Sheikh, which roughly translated means ‘son of a venerable man’ in Arabic.

Religious Persecution On The Rise

Christians in Pakistan have suffered the secondary effects of U.S. intervention abroad.

On St. Patrick’s Day, 2018, four men waved down a rickshaw driver in a suburb of the Pakistani megalopolis of Karachi. The men, all Muslim and led by a Muslim cleric, recognized the cabbie, who happened to be a Catholic they had harassed many years prior. They pulled him out of the rickshaw, beat him almost to death, and then set fire to the vehicle, his only source of income.

I know that Christian, whose name is Michael D’Souza. My wife and I befriended him during three years living in Bangkok, where he and his family had fled in 2012, seeking asylum and refugee status. With the assistance of some family and friends, we paid his family’s airfare when they decided, after almost a year in Bangkok’s infamous Immigration Detention Center, to return to Pakistan in summer 2017.

Grenfell Tower: Woman made ‘Jewish sacrifice’ Facebook posts

“Strongly Held Beliefs”

Arab Racism and the ‘Jewish State’

Palestinians and other Arabs are furious because Mansour Abbas — an Arab member of Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, and head of the United List Party — announced that he recognizes Israel as a Jewish state.

Abbas is being denounced as a “traitor” and “Zionist” by many Palestinians and Arabs who define their countries and political systems as “Arab” or “Islamic.” They claim that the idea of a Jewish state is “racist” but seem not to feel the same way about openly Islamic states: The Islamic Republic of Iran, the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and the Islamic Republic of Mauritania.

Oh Canada! Muslima traitor who joined ISIS and was inexplicably allowed back is under investigation for terrorism, war crimes

A Canadian woman traitor who was held for two years at an ISIS detention camp in Syria is now under investigation for terrorism offences and war crimes. However, her lawyer has suggested RCMP officers are exploiting their powers by both monitoring and investigating the Calgary mother ISIS Slag, according to court documents recently filed at the Calgary courthouse.

A publication ban protects the 30-year-old woman’s identity. CBC News will call her “S.A.,” as she was previously identified in Federal Court.

In late 2021, the woman was issued emergency travel documents and returned to Canada, landing in Calgary in late November to reunite with her five-year-old daughter, who eight months earlier had been released to the woman’s sister and American diplomat Peter Galbraith.

Indonesian woman flogged 100 times for adultery, man gets 15 lashes

An Indonesian woman has been flogged 100 times in Aceh province for adultery while the male involved, who denied the accusations, received just 15 lashes.

Ivan Najjar Alavi, the head of the general investigation division at the East Aceh prosecutors’ office, said the court handed down a harsher sentence for the woman after she confessed to investigators she had sex outside of her marriage.

Judges found it difficult to convict the man, who was then the head of the East Aceh fishery agency and also married, because he denied all wrongdoing, Alavi said.
