Geert Wilders Speech today: Free Tommy Robinson
I am honoured to speak to you again. Your Prime Minister said I could not come to the UK today. But here I am anyway and I am honoured to speak to you again. You are all heroes. Can Tommy count on you again? We will never let Tommy down again. Free Tommy Robison. And shame on you Mrs. Teresa May. You did not act against the rape of young British girls. Your government betrayed young girls. And worse, your government betrayed Tommy Robinson. We will not abandon you Tommy. We are your band of brothers.

What Was M-103 Really About; Islamophobia or a Money Grab for Radical Islamic Groups?
This week Canadians were stunned to hear that after the near unanimous passing of Motion 103 on Islamophobia in the Canadian parliament last March, the government has decided to use this "non-binding motion" as a reason to give 23 million dollars of hard-earned Canadian Tax payer's money, to organizations that sympathize with the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization that supports radical Islam and which has been linked to known terrorist groups in the Middle East. "This money will go to NCCM (National Council of Canadian Muslims) & Islamic Relief" said MP Iqra Khalid, the Muslim Brotherhood-associated Liberal MP who was the "godmother" of M-103.
Liberals use 'illegal' vs. 'irregular' argument as a distraction
Under Trudeau, the number of illegal border crossers has proliferated. There have been upwards of 70,000 asylum claims in the past 18 months - a drastic spike over numbers from recent decades. "Crossing the border in between official border crossings is illegal," said Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau a few months ago in the House of Commons. It's bizarre, therefore, that Liberal immigration minister Ahmed Hussen is picking a fight with Conservative Ontario Premier Doug Ford over Ford's use of the term "illegal border crossers"

Instead of Dealing With Crisis, Ahmed Hussen Attacks Ontario For Saying "Illegal Border Crossers"
As if there was any doubt, the Trudeau government has made it crystal clear that they have zero intention of dealing with the crisis at the border and are instead doubling-down on weak political correctness. If someone enters Canada without permission outside of a legal border crossing it is by definition an illegal act. What is actually concerning is Hussen's refusal to call a spade a spade.
Ahmed Hussen Insanely Calls Lisa MacLeod "Un-Canadian" For Demanding Border Enforcement
After Lisa MacLeod - the Ontario Minister Responsible for Immigration - made clear that the Ford government wants border enforcement and had the toughness to criticize the fact that illegal crossers are cutting in line ahead of those following legal processes, Hussen went on the attack.He called MacLeod "Un-Canadian," and insanely accused her of "fear mongering," even though he's obviously the one trying to scare and divide Canadians by demonizing those of us who want the border secured.
Canadian Coalition Launches Lawsuit Against Federal Government Over Summer Jobs Attestation
The Canada Summer Jobs Program offers money to groups that hire students for summer positions. In a break from previous years, it now requires participating organizations to sign an attestation that their "core mandate" agrees with a variety of left-wing positions, including a "right" to abortion - regardless of whether the organization is involved in political advocacy against abortion. A coalition of Canadian companies and a Christian student ministry are taking Justin Trudeau's Liberal government to court over its requirement that they declare support for legal abortion and other political stances in order to participate in the country's summer jobs program.
New ruling on freedom of speech will help protect against hate
In a ruling on whether or not an individual could claim that anti-Muslim statements are immunized from civil liability because they are protected political commentary, Justice Shaun Nakatsuru has provided one of the clearest decisions yet that the constitutional protection of free expression does not extend to hate speech. And in a Canadian twist, the court relied on a 30-year-old Supreme Court judgment on anti-Semitic hate speech to rule that the public is best served in the suppression of communications of racial, ethnic or religious hatred.
Canada: 300 university academics sign anti-Israel open letter to Prime Minister Trudeau about Gaza
Why are these politicians promoting the Palestinian cause when they should be busy representing Canadians? The Islamic supremacist political agenda has seeped like poison into Western countries, aggressively manipulated by Muslim Brotherhood interests, Iranian proxies and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation.
Canada: Judge dismisses all charges against Muslim refugee accused of sexually assaulting teen girls at pool
A man accused of sexual assault hugged his wife after learning his charges were dismissed Friday. Meanwhile, a group of teenage girls and their supporters left the courtroom in tears. Soleiman Hajj Soleiman was arrested in February 2017 after several teenagers reported being touched by a man in the West Edmonton Mall water park. He was acquitted of all charges against him - six counts of sexual assault and six counts of sexual contact with a child - in a provincial court ruling Friday morning.

Islamophobia
It Isn't Islamophobic to Criticize Sadiq Khan
Everything about this dash to brand Trump an Islamophobe for criticizing the London mayor is worrying. It confirms that the chattering-class concern with Islamophobia is not about protecting Muslims from genuine discrimination or violence (both of these things are already illegal), but rather is about ringfencing Islam and all Muslims from criticism, surrounding this one religion with a blasphemy-deflecting forcefield. So any commentary on Islam or even on influential Muslims can be casually batted aside as 'phobic'.

Freedom of Speech
Another Day, Another Blow to Freedom by Bruce Bawer
This is a story about the appeasement of Islam. To be specific, it's about appeasement on the part of book publishers. To be even more specific, it's about a little mom-and-pop operation known as Random House, and a German author named Thilo Sarrazin. It appears that the same house that published my books on Islam - including the one, Surrender, in which I took social, cultural, and political institutions to task for placating the adherents of that faith - has now chosen to step back from issuing a critical book about the Religion of Peace that, given the author's track record, would almost certainly have proved a massive success. Although this is only the beginning of what may turn out to be a long and complicated story, it certainly looks, at present, as if Random House is engaged in precisely the sort of baleful censorship and propitiation that I outlined in Surrender. If that's the case, it's lamentable, but scarcely astonishing.

Immigration & Refugees
Refugees are big business for the UN
As the paradigm shift hits, the UN is looking to change a policy that after 25 years is no longer sustainable. With increased domestic pressure in donor countries to justify spending, the focus has transformed from providing cradle-to-grave aid to empowering refugees to find solutions for themselves. Refugees are big business, and subliminal pressure exists to keep the system going. That's one reason refugees have been made into needy victims, who need supplies of tarpaulins, non-food items, sanitation, water and tents, all of which translates into money. If people are seen as capable of standing on their own feet, those contracts aren't needed, and without victims, there's no business. Why find a solution if it threatens livelihoods?

America Is Not a Nation of Immigrants
"The 20 million-odd immigrants who arrived between 1870 and 1910," said Daniel Moynihan, "were not the wretched refuse of anybody's shores." Rather, the fiery New York liberal concluded, they were an "extraordinary, enterprising and self-sufficient folk who knew exactly what they were doing and doing it quite on their own, thank you very much." Moynihan was right. America's early immigrants were, with some exceptions (such as the Irish fleeing famine), Jewish tailors, Italian masons, German shopkeepers, skilled craftsmen, and artisans. It was not uncommon for these immigrants to make their fortunes in America and re-migrate, either because they had never intended to stay or were induced by hardship. Those who stayed did so because they truly wanted to be American.

Political Correctness
Papa John's founder forced to resign for saying someone else used the 'N-word'
John Schnatter, the founder of the Papa John's pizza chain, has been forced to resign as chairman of the board after using the "N-word" itself, not the euphemism. The context? It was during a conference, where Schnatter claimed that Colonel Sanders allegedly called blacks the "N-word." In other words, Schnatter had to resign not for calling a black person the N-word, not for even using the N-word to describe blacks around whitepeople, but merely saying that someone else used the N-word.
Pressure to Break up Facebook Builds
Facebook continues to enable Muslim terrorists. Facebook has been named in a handful of lawsuits by survivors of recent terrorist attacks, for providing material support to groups such as Islamic State by failing to take down the pages of terrorist organizations. Facebook is also a safe place for Antifa, the self-styled "anti-fascist" terrorists who assault Trump supporters and shut down conservative and Republican events. In 2016, former Facebook employees spilled the beans about the social media company's censorship practices and promotion of fake news. The conservative-hating social media giant may soon get its comeuppance.

Antifa & the Left
Unmasking Antifa Using the Rule of Law
Antifa are self-styled anti-fascists who embrace fascist tactics and are notorious for assaulting conservatives and members of the so-called alt-right. These modern-day domestic terrorists trace their roots back to Nazi Germany where they opposed Nazi storm troopers, but copied their tactics, using their fists to shut down political opponents and break up meetings and rallies. The anarchists and communists of the Antifa movement are notorious for promiscuously labeling those they target as fascists, Nazis, and racists. A new bill called the "Unmasking Antifa Act of 2018" H.R. 6054, seeks enhanced penalties against rioters and others who use clothing to conceal their identities while committing certain crimes.

Fascists, Faux and Real
Antifa wear masks to their violent riots, where they protest about laws they don't like by beating passers-by, burning cars and breaking windows. That's fascism. Coddled university students stage sit-ins and violent protests to prevent speakers whose opinions they do not like from being heard. That's fascism. Democrat Maxine Waters said businesses should be forced to serve anyone who comes in the door anything they want, unless the customers are Republicans, in which case they should be denounced and refused service. That's fascism. Disagreements about policies do not entitle me or anyone else to call Trump a fascist. He is simply not.

British Politician Beaten by Protestors for 'Welcoming Trump to the UK'

The Good Must Associate: Key Strategies in the Counterjihad Movement
Many people feel an overwhelming sense of helplessness and "what can I do" to make a difference in this war against the evil of those who wish to destroy all that this great country stands for. To prevail against orthodox Islam's relentless encroachment, we need to employ three essential strategies: gather allies, coordinate our efforts, and concentrate our forces at decisive points.

France
Is Tariq Ramadan a Victim of French Justice?
French-bashing is one of the few pleasures still allowed in Europe nowadays, and it seems a bit unkind to deprive you of it. Sadly, a recent piece, by Peter Oborne, accuses the entire French justice system of treating Tariq Ramadan, the sometime academic, stealth Islamist, serial liar and alleged rapist, like a latter-day hero from Les Misérables, supposedly "rotting" in a French jail as a victim of the complete "abandonment of due process". Not quite. And then, of course, comes the trump card: all the accusers are supposedly Islamophobes.

France's Latest Surrender to Jihad
"One knows only how to submit rather than treat the causes," states one critic of the tower's new look, deploring where political weakness has led France and the resulting evolution of French society. Besides an admission of political failure, the wall also definitely proves the country is at war and is living in fear. After the Eiffel Tower, critics also ask what monument is next to be encased in glass? The Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame, the Louvre? Where will this loss of liberty and identity end, they ask? And even if you build walls around all the monuments in France, will that stop the Islamic terrorists? The Bataclan nightclub, after all, was no heritage monument.

Germany
Muslim Migrant Beheads Baby
Apparently, the English-language media didn't find it newsworthy that a Muslim migrant beheaded his one-year-old daughter on a Hamburg train platform. But the sheer horror of this incident has been compounded now by Angela Merkel's government, which has reportedly banned further reporting on the incident. Anything to keep as many Germans as possible ignorant and complacent regarding just how devastating the Muslim migrant influx into Germany really is.

Iran
Anything for that Iran deal: How Obama threw national security (and troops' lives) out the window
In a major story that came and went, President Obama shut down a major drug operation run by Hezb'allah because he didn't want to upset Iran's mullahs and endanger his Iran deal. Seems the Iran deal was considerably more important to his "legacy" than any concern about drug-dealing, the opioid epidemic, or just the idea of putting terrorists who finance themselves through the global drug trade out of business. The whole thing recalls something security expert Rachel Ehrenfeld memorably told me in the wake of 9-11 many years ago: "All terrorism is narco-terrorism." For Obama, all national security was about protecting his "legacy." Turns out that wasn't the only drug operation Obama shut down.
Israel
One Year Later: The Answer to "Where are your Jews"
Palestinians are the only population in the world not eligible for services by the UN refugee agency. Instead these descendants are governed by UNRWA, which holds generation after generation trapped in refugee camps, denied integration in the Arab countries they were born in and denied resettlement elsewhere.

Oslo is Obsolete: Time for a Victory Mindset
At the end of the day, the only way to find a solution is to find a way to link Palestinian autonomy in Judea and Samaria to the Kingdom of Jordan.
Don't forget that the Palestinians of Judea and Samaria were Jordanian citizens until 1988, when the King, unilaterally and illegally, took their citizenship away.

Sweden
The Relentless Radicalization of Sweden
In Borås, some children will not drink the water at the school or paint with watercolors there, because they say the water is "Christian". The police report that Muslim children have told their classmates they will cut their throats, while showing them beheadings on their mobile phones. In Västerås, religious influence is mixed with crime. "It could be a bunch of guys coming into the grocery store. If the woman at the cashier is not veiled, they take what they want without paying, they call the cashier 'Swedish whore' and spit on her," said a police officer in the study.
What is happening in Sweden is tragic, and all the more so because the politicians imposed this relentless immigration upon their own people. Now they have to live with the total chaos and fear from Muslim militants in their midst who hate them and their system. This same open-door policy is taking place in this country and we too will suffer the same consequences unless we take a stand.

United Kingdom
UK Parliament: Little Interest in Grooming Gangs
In response to Britain's ongoing sexual grooming scandal, a group of 20 MPs signed an open letter to recently appointed Home Secretary, Sajid Javid, urging coordinated action. As the UK Parliament has 650 MPs, the 20 signatories constitute a mere 3% willing to support the protection of children subjected to gang-rape, trafficking and torture, and at times murder. Such a paltry number of politicians willing to speak out against child sexual slavery seems yet more evidence of the moral bankruptcy of Britain's political elite and how low the country appears to have sunk. Needless to say, Britain's media elite have ignored the letter.

How the #WalkAway Campaign is Drowning the Blue Wave Democrats
The #walkaway campaign is now over 100,000 strong in just a few weeks. These are former liberals who have discovered, as its founder Brandon Straka says in his video, "the Democratic Party's greatest and most insidious lie:" That without them, you are nothing. As Candace Owens of TurningPointUSA put it in her electrifying speech onstage at the Western Conservative Summit in Denver, they are fleeing the plantation of Democrat servitude. Most of all, they are awakening to the self-actualization and fierce can-do spirit that is at the very core of the American experiment.

Reading, Writing and Jihad: Child Soldiers and a Lost Generation
The effects of those traumas do not end, however, just because the war does. Child soldiers may suffer lifelong effects of PTSD. Others, radicalized from their earliest years, hold tight to their indoctrination and seek out other groups sympathetic to their cause as they grow older. Others who return home find that they are not welcomed back as heroes, but rather, are ostracized and shunned. The question still remains: are these children dangerous warriors, to be kept from the community at all costs - or are they the victims, needing to be embraced? No one yet has determined the right answer. And so the cycle continues, and the crisis only grows.

Is Islam "Exceptional"?
"Because of its outsize role in law and governance, Islam has been - and will continue to be - resistant to secularization. Unlike Jesus Christ, the Prophet Muhammad was a theologian, a preacher, a warrior and a politician, all at once. He was also the leader and builder of a new state, capturing, holding and governing new territory. Religious and political functions, at least for the believer, were no accident. They were meant to be intertwined in the leadership of one man."

If I Could Show You What Communism Is
There is no equality, compassion, and social justice under socialism and communism. There is no social justice at all, just exploitation of the weak and disarmed. The tyrants like Mao, Pol Pot, Castro, Ceausescu, and Stalin, who had previously sold socialism to the masses have killed millions of their own people once those oppressed woke up and refused to follow the vicious path that destroyed their freedom and their lives. If they want Bernie's socialism so badly, I would take them to Venezuela, formerly a well-off country with rich oil reserves, brought to bankruptcy and penury by the lying socialists.

"Jihad Allowance": Views of Work in the Middle East
The lack of a proper work ethic in Islamic culture is possibly a large cause behind the refugee movement and helps to explain why Muslims' eyes are always focused on the outside, non-Muslim world, the greener pastures, for more and more to conquer or expand into. Capturing wealth from others, rather than creating wealth, became an Islamic value, established as an honorable and holy legal right of Muslims. As Muhammad said in the hadith, "Booty has been made legal for me" (Bukhari 53:351).

Illuminati: The Bilderberg conspiracy
If Bilderberg members were not conspiring behind our backs, then they would not have to hide their plans from us. Their meetings would be open to the public. Only people with something to hide have to meet in secret - like criminals and politicians. No one has to hide good intent. The topics of discussion would be open to the public, if they were not of a nefarious nature. So, if any authority figure, historian, academic type, or media talking head tries to tell you that there's no such thing as the Illuminati, or if they call you a conspiracy theorist, then ask them, what the hell is the Bilderberg Group?
