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?

Palestinian who raped a 13-year-old boy then beat him to death with an iron bar is among prisoners freed under hostage deal

A Palestinian man who raped a 13-year-old boy before beating him to death with an iron bar is among the prisoners to be freed by Israel under the hostage deal.

Ahmed Mahmed Jameel Shahada was put behind bards in 1989 after luring teenager Oren Bahrami to a monastery in Jaffa, Tel Aviv, before raping him and beating him to death.

Oren’s parents, from south of Tel Aviv, reported him missing in April 1989. Detectives working on the case initially suspected he had been kidnapped by terrorists, after finding his abandoned bike in a Jaffa port.

The EU Is Enabling Religious Persecution in Pakistan

Pakistan is engulfed in a deepening crisis of religious intolerance and systemic persecution. This year has witnessed a disturbing surge of violence, discrimination and institutional complicity. Christian, Ahmadiyya and Hindu communities have particularly been targeted.

Despite repeated calls for reform and international condemnation, Pakistan’s failure to protect its most vulnerable citizens has left a trail of shattered lives, desecrated places of worship, and a society increasingly fractured by hate.

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.

Gaza City clashes between Hamas and clan members leave 27 dead

At least 27 people have been killed in fierce clashes between Hamas security forces and armed members of the Dughmush family in Gaza City, in one of the most violent internal confrontations since the end of major Israeli operations in the enclave.

Masked Hamas gunmen exchanged fire with clan fighters near the city’s Jordanian hospital, witnesses said.

A senior official in the Hamas-run interior ministry said security units surrounded them and engaged in heavy fighting to detain them. The ministry said eight its members were killed in “an armed assault by a militia”.


Hamas is out to murder any opposition.

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.

What Jihad al-Shamie’s three wives tell us about terror

Jihad Al-Sham Wow – Ladies man

Where were the warning signs, we ask about monsters like the Manchester killer. The answer is: in their domestic lives

Before he made a fake suicide belt and purchased real knives; before he drove his black Kia into a crowd of worshippers gathering outside a Manchester synagogue; before he stabbed and killed and terrorised British Jews on their holiest day, Jihad al-Shamie acquired three wives.

Not serially but cumulatively. The moment a police marksman ended his life, Shamie was married to three women. However, the crime of bigamy, which carries a seven-year sentence under the 1861 Offences Against the Person Act, did not apply here, since at least two of the marriages were conducted only under sharia law. Besides, Shamie wasn’t a big believer in bigamy. “In Islam a man can have up to 4 wives,” he texted Wife Two, whom he had not told about Wife One, “but these days most women don’t accept it.”

Malala the once favoured symbol of Magical Islam to virtue signaling liberals is feeling neglected

‘To the men who ran the world, I was just a photo op’: Malala Yousafzai on growing up, getting cynical – and how getting high nearly broke her

The global icon of women’s education is ready to tell the full story of her turbulent recent life, from arguing with her parents to being ghosted by the statesmen who were once desperate to be seen with her

I am at the shed where Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai smoked her first bong. No, there’s no punchline – it’s not that kind of anecdote. “My life has changed for ever,” Yousafzai says sadly, as we gaze at the semi-derelict structure. “Everything changed for ever, after that [night].”

The shed is tucked away at the back of Lady Margaret Hall, away from the prying eyes of Oxford’s college life. You have to know how to find it. Yousafzai leads me through quadrangles and out into a hidden garden. Inside are dusty pint glasses and spiderwebs, and board games with the pieces missing.

We are meeting on a bright summer afternoon, ahead of the release of her memoir, Finding My Way, a sequel to her 2013 bestseller I Am Malala. Dressed in a blue shirt, jeans and a headscarf, Yousafzai is accompanied, at a discreet distance, by two close-protection officers. The college is quiet – it’s the summer holidays – and Yousafzai attracts no attention from the few students who remain as she tramps across the grass.


Idiot liberals trotted her out at every opportunity pretending she represented the real Islam. 

She made out like a bandit and her foundation is still raking in the bucks yet she complains about her financial obligations to friends and family.

The foundation seems a means to market Malala and nothing more.
