It happened after the massacre on June 12, 2016, in which a jihadist named Omar Mateen murdered 49 people and wounded 58 at Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando. It happened after the shooting on June 25, 2022, in which an ISIS member killed two people and wounded 21 outside a gay bar in Oslo. And it happened again the other day, when a wannabe soldier of ISIS, Abdul Ballout, killed one person and wounded twenty-nine at Berlin Pride.

German police are hunting a member of the ‘Islamist scene’ after a van was driven into a crowd of people at a Pride parade in Berlin, killing at least one person.
The ‘brutal attack’ happened on Saturday evening just hours after the city’s annual Christopher Street Day (CSD) pride event began, with thousands in attendance for the celebration.
Police said a white van charged through the city’s central Tiergarten Park, near the Brandenburg Gate. Witnesses said several people were hit before the van crashed into a tree and the driver fled on foot.

Wow shocker. A Muslim refugee has rammed a ‘Car of Peace’ into a gay pride event in Berlin, Germany.

From DW – cornered into telling the truth for a change – Germany classifies Berlin Pride ramming as ‘terror attack’
The story is kind of funny—an LGBTQ+ filled cruise that is being turned away from ports in Muslim countries for being inconsistent with Islamic values. However, what’s a little less funny is that, statistically speaking, most of these passengers support the Democrat party and its love affair with Islam. Indeed, at least one passenger has let his followers know that the animus the ship is facing is all…wait for it…Trump’s fault.
Gay man on LGBTQ+ cruise denied entry to Egypt & Turkey blames Trump for making countries feel “emboldened” to have “prejudice” against LGBT.

An LGBTQ+ cruise ship blocked from Turkish waters this week has been refused entry into Egypt.
The Scarlet Lady’s 2,000 passengers, including the Broadway performer Patti LuPone, woke on Thursday morning to find a note placed under their cabin doors informing them that the ship was urgently looking for alternative ports.
I don’t hear much anguish from the left on this.
York police say two suspects are facing charges in a potentially hate-motivated incident that saw a Markham school’s Pride flag burned.
Officers responded to the school located near Yonge Street and Clark Avenue in Markham on Tuesday for reports that the flag had been burned. The school was not named by police.
Two 18-year-old suspects, identified as Sepehr Abadar and Mahan Mohammad Radmard, both of Markham, have each been charged with mischief under $5,000.
British progressives were scandalized last week when 5Pillars, a prominent Muslim news organization known for supporting the U.K. Green Party, published a homophobic “guide” on navigating Pride month. The incident laid bare the intellectual and moral incoherence of Islamo-left alliance, providing a useful case study for Canadians who feel anxious about Muslim-led intolerance.
About time.
With growing tensions between socially conservative Muslims and progressive liberals, what is the future of their traditional alliance on the British left? If events of the past week are anything to go by, the answer appears to be that there isn’t one.
This uneasy marriage got a reality check last week when a Green Party councillor and practising Muslim, Mothin Ali, appeared reluctant to sign a set of ‘pledges’ on behalf of the LGBTQIA+ Greens, Feminist Greens and other similar groups. The MP for Blackburn, ‘Gaza Independent’ Adnan Hussain, then waded into the debate. ‘It’s no secret that Muslims tend to be socially conservative’, Hussain said. ‘Is there a space on the left to create a broad enough church to allow Muslims an authentic space, just as it does other minority groups?’
Muhsin Hendricks, a pioneering figure dubbed the world’s first openly gay imam, has been shot dead in South Africa.
The 57-year-old cleric ran a mosque in Cape Town intended as a safe haven for gay and other marginalised Muslims. He was killed on Saturday morning after the car in which he was travelling near the southern city of Gqeberha was ambushed.
“Two unknown suspects with covered faces got out of the vehicle and started firing multiple shots at the vehicle,” police said in a statement.
The head of a watchdog organization has offered a one million dollar reward to ‘Queers for Palestine’ or any LGBTQ organization that holds a pride march in Gaza or areas controlled by the Palestinian Authority.
New Tolerance Campaign (NTC) President Gregory T. Angelo, who is gay, said that the offer should serve as a “wake-up call” for LGBTQ organizations that side with the Hamas terrorist organization over Israel.
It’s been six weeks since a brazen, allegedly bigoted attack took place on the street in a major Canadian city. It should have been national news. Perhaps under different circumstances, it would have been.
A lesbian couple in Halifax Canada was beaten up by a group of men hurling homophobic slurs at them.
I’m still waiting for the nationwide condemnation by the left for this despicable homophobic hate crime.

Two Canadian lesbians were attacked last Saturday in Halifax, by 7-10 Middle-Eastern men — whom they believe to have been Syrian.

In the wake of the Hamas-led attack on Israel on Oct. 7 last year and Israel’s subsequent military assault in Gaza, Halifax Pride and other organizations in Canada have faced calls from parts of the 2SLGBTQ+ community to support Palestinian people.
Community educator Aaliyah Paris is one non-binary and queer person in Halifax who’s made that call.
She wants more transparency from Halifax Pride, and for it to divest from companies on the Canadian boycott, divest and sanction (BDS) list — a group of firms, organizations and people that pro-Palestinian groups say should be boycotted to put pressure on Israel.
With Pride celebrations in St. John’s about to get underway, the announcement of the grand marshal for this year’s parade has been met with mixed reactions.
On July 21, Palestine Action YYT will lead the annual parade, which will wind its way through downtown St. John’s and end at Bannerman Park for the Pride in the Park event.
Two Halifax lesbians were brutally attacked by a mob of Muslim men believed to be from Syria.
The women, Emma MacLean and Tori Hogan, were celebrating a birthday June 22 in the city’s downtown area at about 1:30 a.m. local time, when the group of about a dozen Middle Eastern men verbally accosted them with rude comments about their sexuality.
“It’s like no Pride I’m ever going to have known before.”
Ferhan Khan, a practising Muslim and non-binary queer man, is looking forward to an “unforgettable experience” at the UK’s first Muslim Pride event on Saturday.
“It’s going to be filled with people that are just like me and understand me and I don’t need to explain myself to them,” says the 39-year-old who uses they/them pronouns.
Hezbollah has declared war against the enemy. No, not just Israel
“… The “danger” he speaks of emanates from Lebanon’s LGBTQ+ population. It is the lesbians, gays, bisexuals and trans people that preoccupy his Party of God.
The sayyid has seen the enemy and the enemy is queer. Which is why Nasrallah repeatedly dehumanizes and demonizes LGBTQ+ people.
“The culture of homosexuality is very influential and comes from the United States,” he complained in a televised speech. “It is not only demonic; it has real effects.”
