Executions may not be meted out in public says kindler gentler Taliban

Afghanistan: Executions will return, says senior Taliban official

The Taliban’s notorious former head of religious police has said extreme punishments such as executions and amputations will resume in Afghanistan.

Mullah Nooruddin Turabi, now in charge of prisons, told AP News amputations were “necessary for security”.

He said these punishments may not be meted out in public, as they were under previous Taliban rule in the 1990s.

But he dismissed outrage over their past public executions: “No-one will tell us what our laws should be.”

Black like Blackie? Conservative party a bastion of white male supremacy says paper that endorsed Blackie

Only at the Star – Erin O’Toole promised to remake the Conservative party. So why are his MPs so white and male?

OTTAWA—Efforts by Erin O’Toole to show voters he is not running their grandfather’s Conservatives appear to have nonetheless resulted in a party that looks almost exactly as it has for generations.

Despite fielding what the Conservatives said was the most diverse slate of candidates in their party’s history, only one new MP from a racialized community was elected, and preliminary results suggest five racialized incumbents went down to defeat.

That leaves the Conservative caucus overwhelmingly white and overwhelmingly male.

And that’s also leaving many in the party absolutely furious.

I bet.

Joe Oliver: Conservatives must persuade the electorate, not pander to the left

Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole’s strategy to broaden the Tory base did not achieve the breakthrough he sought, so it is time for a deep rethink.

Every progressive, and most of the mainstream commentariat, endlessly proclaim that the only road to victory for Conservatives is to embrace the values and policies of the centre-left. In their view, the Conservatives had no hope of winning unless O’Toole adopted all the revered shibboleths and politically correct strictures of the Liberal elite.

I suspect the CPC is happy with their current course left. You might hear a few actual conservative statements etc from them from time to time but rest assured they’ll recant the minute they can.

Not OK, Cupid: Woman rips down suggestive ads on New York subway

A video of the incident, which made the rounds online on Wednesday and Thursday, begins with the woman ripping down a provocative ad for the dating app OKCupid. “All this is gross, all this is gross,” she told other passengers. “I don’t know, for kids to be looking at this, is that OK?”

Legal Organization Calls on Ontario to Revoke ‘Unconstitutional’ Vaccine Passport Mandate

A legal organization is calling on the Ontario government to revoke its vaccine passport mandate, citing “deep concerns” about the constitutionality of the measure.

The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms issued a letter (pdf) Sept. 22, demanding the government rescind the mandate, which requires Ontarians aged 12 and above to show proof of having taken two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine in order to access a wide range of public facilities such as restaurants, bars, gyms, music venues, theatres and meeting spaces. The system came into effect on Sept. 22.

I was downtown most of yesterday having chauffeured my brother to a doctor’s appointment. Bought a coffee at Starbucks and was asked for my Vaxx papers and OHIP number because I elected to stay inside.

Huawei’s Meng Wanzhou likely off hook

Huawei CFO Meng expected to resolve U.S. charges in Brooklyn federal court – source

WASHINGTON, Sept 24 (Reuters) – Huawei Technologies (HWT.UL) Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou is expected to appear virtually in federal court to resolve U.S. charges against her, according to a source familiar with the situation.

Resolving the case would remove one of several major disputes between the world’s two biggest economies.

Meng was arrested at Vancouver International Airport in December 2018 on a U.S. warrant that charged her with fraud for allegedly misleading HSBC (HSBA.L) about Huawei’s business dealings in Iran.

Islamophobia: Daniel & Kevin two “Toronto men” caught with bomb-making manuals, al-Qaeda literature on phones, documents allege

They certainly look well integrated.

Toronto men caught with bomb-making manuals, al-Qaeda literature on phones, documents allege

Six months after Kevin Omar Mohamed‘s prison sentence for terrorism came to an end, the RCMP’s Toronto O-INSET national security team decided to check up on him.

What they found set off alarms.

Not only was he violating his probation by using a smartphone, he’d downloaded al-Qaeda literature, manuals on bombs and poisons, and a tract justifying the killing of women and children, according to allegations filed in court.

The Squalid “Squad” Is Trying to Destroy Bipartisan Support for Israel

The “Squad” is a small group of radical members of the U.S. House of Representatives who run for Congress under the banner of the Democratic Party but do not reflect its mainstream policies. They represent niche districts that are not typical of the Democratic base. They could not be elected in any statewide race, because they lack widespread support. They were nominated because of low turnout in primaries and were elected because their districts are overwhelmingly Democrat. They are fringe Democrats who should not have influence beyond their districts. But the House leadership of the Democratic Party has exaggerated their significance and given them more power than they deserve.

More media hysteria on the PPC

What the rise of the PPC says about Canada in 2021

TORONTO — While the People’s Party of Canada did not manage to gain any seats this federal election, its accruing of the popular vote has experts saying the rise of the far-right populist party cannot be ignored.

Maxime Bernier, who failed to win his own riding of Beauce, Que., said Monday that he will remain as party leader despite the defeat, telling CTV News’ Genevieve Beauchemin at his Saskatoon rally that he views the election outcome as “a huge victory.”

Hysteria is not too strong a descriptor.

The edible insects coming to a supermarket near you

It has long been suggested that we should start eating insects to help the environment, but for many of us it is not a palatable thought. One Israeli firm is hoping to win over the squeamish by adding different flavourings.

Dror Tamir opens a packet of brown, jellied sweets. “Try one,” says the boss of food tech firm Hargol.

The little gummies are packed with protein, but not from soy or gelatine. They are instead made from an edible, jumping insect – locusts, which are a type of grasshopper.
