Nobel laureate sues French concrete maker Lafarge over alleged Islamic State support

Lafarge, the biggest cement supplier in the world, is at the centre of a growing scandal in France because of its former links with Isis

About 430 Americans of Yazidi background and Nobel laureate Nadia Murad accused French conglomerate Lafarge of supporting brutal attacks on the population through a conspiracy with the Islamic State, according to a complaint reviewed by AFP.

The civil suit, filed in a New York court by attorneys that include human rights lawyer Amal Clooney references a $778m US Department of Justice fine and guilty criminal plea in October 2022 by Lafarge, which was acquired by Swiss company Holcim in 2015.

Yazidi plaintiffs asked the court to find Lafarge liable for violations of the US Anti-Terrorism Act and assess compensatory damages, plus attorneys fees.

Britain faces a catastrophic epidemic of Hamas-style Islamist terror

If you want to see what brainwashing really looks like, it’s worth checking out the videos currently circulating on social media of Gazan parents dressing up their babies in Hamas “merch”.

In one, a father is holding a toddler in his arms dressed in a green Hamas overall and matching headband.

The young dad is asked: “If you will lose your beloved, cute daughter, if she decides she wants to be a suicide bomber, will you be happy about that?” He replies: “Yes, I will help her and encourage her,” adding: “We are all Hamas.”

How Muslim voters are exerting their growing political influence

There are lots of possible explanations for why Canada tilted away from Israel on the Gaza conflict this week by backing a UN resolution calling for a “sustained ceasefire.”

There’s even a theory that Washington gave Canada, Australia and New Zealand a quiet nod to shift their positions as a way of pressuring the Israeli government to restrain the bombing campaign that has killed so many Palestinian civilians.

But the Trudeau government surely didn’t need much encouragement to move in that direction, and it didn’t necessarily have to do with geopolitical calculations. You only have to look at changing demographics in this country and their far-reaching political implications.

Daily Jihad in France

Paris, December 2, 2023. 9 pm. A man shouting “Allahu Akbar!” (“Allah is the greatest!”) stabbed a German tourist walking along the Seine near the Eiffel Tower, an area considered safe. On the way to the hospital, the victim died. The murderer, again shouting, “Allahu Akbar!”, attacked two more people, seriously wounding them, before the police arrested him. A government press release quickly mentioned that the killer was a French citizen, born in France, with the exceedingly French first name of Armand.

Michigan imam is seen on video praising jihad and blaming the US for the ‘genocide in Palestine’

A Michigan imam sparked outrage after sharing an incendiary rant on social media calling for Muslims to embrace ‘Jihad’ – and ‘brush off’ anyone who brands their words extremist.

Ahmad Musa Jibril, an Islamic scholar, told supporters a clip shared to X they were falsely following a version of ‘American-Zionist Islam’ that ‘suits the enemies’, and currently ‘there is a holy war in Islam – it is Jihad’.

‘This may be a surprise to many who grew up in the West, especially those who were born or grew up post 9/11, because of the growing number of hypocrites who are spreading the American-Zionist Islam,’ he said.

Jihād is the only solution and path to victory

We can’t keep crying over massacres that happened to Muslims and then when the dust somewhat settles, we forget all about it until the next active genocide or massacre takes place again, and then we rinse and repeat the same… pic.twitter.com/WKr3g0ZQtA

US Vulnerable to a Catastrophic Islamic Terror Attack Ex-FBI Official Warns

The U.S. is currently extremely vulnerable to a “catastrophic” terrorist attack, a former FBI assistant director said.

Chris Swecker, who retired from the Bureau as assistant director with responsibility over all FBI criminal investigations in 2006, told Newsweek in an interview that he has never seen America so open to Islamic terrorism.

Any country that invited Muslims to settle is open to that risk on a daily basis, for as long as the Mohammedans are allowed to stay.

Heightened Security Measures at Christmas Markets Across Europe

Across Europe, authorities are increasing security at Christmas markets. This follows the deadly terrorist attack in Paris on December 3rd and a spate of recent arrests in Germany of Islamic State sympathizers plotting to strike at seasonal festivities.

Following the Paris terror attack, Ylva Johansson—EU Commissioner for Home Affairs—indicated that the EU would free up €30 million (£26m) for additional security measures. She also expressed concern that the Israel-Hamas war could increase social polarization, triggering similar incidents.

Opinion: The Muslim world’s selective outrage over Israel

The pro-Hamas, pro-Palestine, anti-Israel rallies on the streets of Canada, the United States, Europe and the Middle East are nothing new. Ever since the creation of State of Israel in 1948, Arab politics has largely been defined by Palestinian question.

The question for the rest of us is: what drives this sentiment? Is this expression of political support driven by sympathy and affinity for Muslims in Palestine? Is this a question of human and religious rights? Or is it a decades-long attempt to change a regional geopolitical situation that Arab rulers believe is unfairly tilted towards a lone Jewish state in a sea of Arab monarchies?

Denmark’s Quran-Burning Ban Draws Sharp Criticism

The decision taken by the left-liberal majority in the Danish parliament, the Folketing, late last week to ban public Quran burning has garnered sharp criticism from both domestic politicians and political leaders in neighboring Scandinavian countries, with many arguing the law represents a capitulation to Islamic thuggery.

Following a contentious debate on the floor of parliament on Thursday, December 7th, lawmakers voted 94-77 in favor of a law that criminalizes the so-called “inappropriate treatment” of religious texts. The three governing parties—the Social Democrats, the Liberals, and the Moderates—along with the Radical Left voted in favor of the legislation, while the rest of the opposition opposed it.

Some Are Talking, Some Are Getting Tough on ‘Immigration’ in Europe

The cost of “immigration,” as the Europeans have dubbed it, particularly the overly generous, open-border policies aggressively advocated for by the Merkel-era German government, is finally hitting home in ways neither those same governments nor the citizens who fund them can ignore.

France: 4 in 10 Muslim students refuse to unequivocally condemn stabbing of teacher in Islamist terror attack

Nearly 4 in 10 Muslim students in France opted against unequivocally condemning the stabbing of teacher Dominique Bernard by an Islamist extremist on Oct. 13 in recent polling.

The Ifop survey asked a weighted sample of 1,805 students in French state education between the ages of 15 and 17 the following: “A teacher, Dominique Bernard, was murdered by an Islamist of Ingush origin in a high school in Arras. When you think of the perpetrator of this assassination, what is your reaction?”

They’re just being good Muslims. Murder pleases Allah.
