The German Federal Prosecutor’s Office is investigating “suspicions of unconstitutional sabotage” after holes were discovered drilled into a new gas delivery pipe installed to overcome the country’s dependence on imported Russian hydrocarbons.
Woman starts petition against running group ‘bullies’ endangering Toronto pedestrians
A woman has launched a petition against running groups in Toronto following two experiences that left her injured — and angry.
A Toronto TikToker named Zulf, whose handle is @zulllfff, shared her complaints after an alleged literal run-in with members of the Toronto Running Club resulted in a shoulder injury.
Sounds very Toronto.
Israel could keep security control of Gaza after Hamas defeat, says defence minister
The Israeli defence minister has suggested that Israel would keep security control of Gaza after Hamas has been defeated with an undefined, Israeli-guided Palestinian body running day to day administration and the US, European Union and regional partners taking responsibility for the reconstruction of the territory.
Yoav Gallant revealed the plan to media on Thursday before a visit by Antony Blinken, the US secretary of state, and after growing pressure from the US for Israel to make proposals for postwar scenarios.
Canada added just 100 jobs in December
Job growth stalled in December as the total number of jobs in Canada was virtually unchanged for the month and the unemployment rate held steady at 5.8 per cent for the final month of the year.
Statistics Canada said Friday in its monthly labour force survey that the economy added a total of 100 jobs in the final month of 2023.
I bet they were civil service jobs too.
‘Pets are treated better than us’: Migrants who spent life savings traveling from Africa to NYC complain they’ve been ‘sold a dream by Hollywood
Migrants who spent their life savings traveling from Africa to NYC have complained that they have been sold a dream by Hollywood – but the Big Apple is not what they expected.
Hundreds of homeless expats, mostly young and middle-aged African men, were waiting in line outside a church on East 7th Street in Manhattan’s East Village on Thursday, hoping to find a place to sleep.
Among them was Landry, 40, from Congo, who told DailyMail.com he spent his life savings of $9,000 traveling to the US, taking the difficult decision to leave his wife and 14-year-old son behind four months ago.
When protests become acts of intimidation
Police and public officials have been remarkably tolerant of the demonstrators who have periodically occupied Avenue Road at Highway 401 in Toronto to protest the Israeli government’s attacks in Gaza against Hamas.
They weren’t protesting in front of the Israeli consulate, some nine kilometres to the south, or at a familiar gathering place such as Nathan Phillips Square at City Hall. They chose to make themselves seen and heard in a prominent Jewish-Canadian neighbourhood.
This is not protest. This is intimidation.
Trudeau, Singh and Chow certainly side with the Hamas supporters, Ford will continue to hide his head in the sand. They want Muslim votes.
The Police have received their marching orders, surrender our streets to the Islamist mob, the Jews or anyone else who objects are deserving of what’s to come.
Let’s not forget that the TPS has embraced DEI and BLM and so is probably edging closer to Gaza in it’s outlook & officer makeup than that of Canada.
Jeffrey Epstein: Recruitment of girls detailed in second document batch
A second batch of court papers linked to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein shows how dozens of girls were recruited at his beachfront mansion.
A Florida detective says in testimony that 30 women had spoken to him about “performing massage and work” there. Some were paid to bring their friends.
The court filings have been made public under order by a judge.
They are part of a lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s imprisoned former girlfriend.
She was jailed in 2022 for trafficking girls for Epstein and much of the material in this batch and the 900 pages unsealed on Wednesday had already come to light during her trial.
After weeks of demonstrations, enough is enough
For Jews throughout the world, Oct. 7 is a demarcation in our collective calendar. It marks a day of pure evil.
… She assured me repeatedly that the call was being made out of concern for my safety. But what about our collective safety as Jews, I asked her, in the wake of repeated and ugly encounters with the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel crowds whose hatred of Israel was well beyond that particular border, and was increasingly being activated against local Jewish businesses and individuals?
The constable asked me for my plan. When I said I planned to walk back and forth across a crosswalk to delay this cavalcade, I was told that it is illegal to block roadways.
When I pointed out that over the past months Victoria roadways were blocked on a weekly basis, she replied, “We can’t arrest 500 people.”
She’s had her moment of clarity.
The police will not protect you if you attend a counter protest. You will be treated as a public nuisance and told to move along for your own safety.
Echoing Trump’s Offer To Buy Greenland, America Quietly Doubles Its Claim to Arctic Seabed
Lost in the Christmas rush, America quietly expanded its claim to the Arctic seabed by an extra 200,000 square miles, an area twice the size of California. Russians, who celebrate Christmas next Sunday, did not miss Washington’s move. They denounced it as a “seizure.”
The vice speaker of the Federation Council, Konstantin Kosachev, objects on his Telegram channel: “Today, the Americans act without any international legal basis at all, which means the international community has every right not to recognize new borders.”
Trudeau’s Liberal government will not say if it plans to intervene and support Israel against UN genocide charge
As Israel seeks allies’ support against UN genocide charge, Canada won’t say whether it will intervene in case
As Israel seeks to mobilize its allies to oppose a genocide charge at the International Court of Justice, the Canadian government is declining to say whether it will support or oppose the case.
South Africa filed an 84-page legal brief at the United Nations court last week, seeking an urgent order declaring that Israel’s bombing campaign in Gaza and its siege of the Palestinian territory is “genocidal in character” and a violation of the 1948 Genocide Convention.

A Jewish family is speaking out after their teen daughter faced antisemitic harassment for wearing an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) jacket to a New Jersey mall.
In the incident caught on video at American Dream in East Rutherford, Palestinian supporters are seen shouting expletive-laced messages while accusing Maya Vaxman-Magid of “supporting genocide.”
“You should be embarrassed,” one unidentified harasser shouted, going on to call the teen a “White piece of s–t” while declaring she is from Palestine and is “proud to say it.”
East Rutherford, NJ -a Jewish family of four, including a 12-year-old & a 16-year-old, faced verbal and physical assault at the American Dream Mall.

Prince Andrew reported to police by republicans over Epstein list
Prince Andrew has been reported to the police over the alleged sexual abuse of a 17-year-old girl in London after her claims were repeated in newly released court papers linking him to Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted paedophile.
Republic, Britain’s largest anti-monarchist campaign group, claimed that the files contained “new details of sexual assault and rape allegations” made against the Duke of York, which prompted it to ask the Metropolitan Police to re-investigate the claims.
