Europe’s Twilight: Christianity Declines, Islam Rises

All for naught.

French writer André Malraux said it: “A civilization is everything that gathers around a religion”. And when one religion declines, another takes its place.

Sarcelles, Saint-Denis, Mulhouse, Nantes, Chambéry, Strasbourg, La Rochelle… The impressive images of stadiums full of Muslim faithful, who arrived from all over France for the feast of Eid Al Kabir, seventy days after the end of Ramadan. In Saint-Denis, the city where the kings of France rest; in Nantes, the city of the Dukes of Brittany; in Strasbourg, the city of the cathedral and seat of the European Parliament, in Mulhouse, in the heart of Alsace.

“In forty years, France has become the Western European nation where the population of Muslim origin is the most important,” wrote Vatican Radio. “It is not difficult to hypothesize that we are now close to Islam overtaking Catholicism.” What if the overtaking has already taken place?

That Mushroom Cloud You See Is Another Trump Media Narrative Exploding Before Your Eyes

Four days after the raid on former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, The Washington Post ran interference for the Biden Administration’s politicized FBI and DOJ by disseminating a whopper in an obvious attempt to tamp down the outrage.

Not that they probably care, but the four reporters bylined on the story were punked. And Americans were deceived.

Vivian Bercovici: Laith Marouf embodies critical race theory that is so popular in Ottawa

Laith Marouf, who is now an international household name, seems to have had a bad week. After his many antisemitic twitter rantings became a source of controversy for Ottawa, his government contract was suspended. Explaining why he locked his twitter account, he blames three prominent “Zios” myself included, who he says were “directing their attack dogs” to him.

Unreasonable for Toronto to dismiss firefighters over vaccine status, arbitrator says

In a decision that could set a precedent for other disputes over workplace vaccine mandates, a labour arbitrator has handed a victory to more than a dozen firefighters who were fired by the city of Toronto early this year after failing to get the COVID-19 vaccine or disclose their vaccination status.

The arbitrator ruled that Toronto’s mandatory vaccination policy for firefighters was and still is reasonable and said it is supported by expert evidence that demonstrated the safety and efficacy of vaccines the city required its employees to accept.

Is anyone really shocked that a minister in a government that literally hired a racist to call its citizens racists is rudely heckled?

Deputy PM Freeland responds to harassment incident in Alberta

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland has responded to an incident of verbal harassment in Alberta after video of the encounter was widely circulated on social media.

The video, which was shared on Twitter, shows a man and two women waiting at the lobby of Grande Prairie, Alta.’s city hall when Freeland and her staffers enter the building and approach the elevator.

I think “Mandatory Tomato Carry” should be made law making it a “citizens duty to toss” at members of the Trudeau government.

Welsh Police Get The L Out At Pride Parade

The BBC’s account of events leaves you wondering who was protesting. Turns out Lesbians were protesting the parade participation of men who claim to be women. Is the BBC that afraid of Trannies? I took a screenshot of the BBC piece for posterity.

Pride Cymru: Cardiff Police asking ‘protest group’ to move goes viral

South Wales Police said its officers were “required to engage with a small protest group who had assembled themselves on the route to block the procession” in Cardiff on Saturday.

The force said no arrests were made.

Organisers said a group interrupted the march, the first since 2019.


I had to search to find out who was protesting.

Intel officials to assess national security fallout from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago documents

The U.S. intelligence community will evaluate the potential national security risks stemming from former President Donald Trump’s possession of top-secret documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines told top lawmakers.

In a letter obtained by POLITICO and dated Friday, Haines told House Oversight Committee Chair Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) and House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) that her office will lead an “assessment of the potential risk to national security that would result from the disclosure of the relevant documents.”

The “TDS intelligence community.”

Germany’s decision to close its nuclear plants as energy prices climb tenfold is not just stupid – it’s insane

Stupidity is not always painful. Often it can be laughed away with some embarrassment and minimal injury to the victims, allowing life to trundle on. But deep, cavernous stupidity on a national scale is something else. Everyone suffers.

Germany comes to mind – yes, the same country admired for its industrial prowess, green environmental policies and generally rational corporate and political management style.

Conservative leadership: A round up of key moments as the race nears its end

OTTAWA – There are just two weeks left until the Conservative Party of Canada announces its new leader on Sept. 10.

While nearly half of the ballots have already been cast, the five candidates — Pierre Poilievre, Jean Charest, Roman Baber, Scott Aitchison, and Leslyn Lewis — are busy rallying support in a final get-out-the-vote push.

I don’t understand how the author of this article could write that Charest along with Poilievre are the “front-runners”. Unless they know the books are cooked Charest is not even close.

‘No place’ for harassment in Canada: Politicians slam verbal attack against Deputy PM

Across the nation, Canadian politicians – current and former – are denouncing an incident in Alberta during which Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland appeared to have been verbally harassed on Friday.

“There is absolutely no place in our country for the harassment, intimidation and threatening conduct that [Chrystia Freeland] and her staff were subjected to last night,” federal minister of public safety Marco Mendicino said online about the 14-second Twitter video.

Maybe the Prime Minister should cease calling citizens racists and Islamophobes, better yet maybe his government should stop hiring disgusting racists like Laith Marouf.

B.C. judge lambastes conservation group for using protesters as ‘cannon fodder’

A B.C. provincial court judge has accused a conservation group of using frontline protesters as “sacrificial lambs” to mount illegal traffic blockades aimed at drawing attention to their climate change agenda by stirring up chaos.

In a searing decision, Judge Laura Bakan gave a conditional discharge to a 30-year-old who took part earlier this year in repeated Save Old Growth demonstrations.

Bakan said Ian Wiltow Schortinghuis was the type of “unsophisticated” person organizers convince to get themselves arrested instead of those who “pull the strings.”
