Photo surfaces of top Al Qaeda leaders inside Iran

A recently surfaced photograph of three of Al Qaeda’s top leaders, including Saif al Adel – the man many believe to be the successor to emir Ayman al Zawahiri – shows that they were present in the Iranian capital of Tehran. Numerous U.S. government designations have previously outlined the presence of senior Al Qaeda leaders in Iran, but this photo offered rare visual proof.

The photo was originally published by @Sw0rdOfAnon (Anonymous) on Twitter. Two U.S. intelligence officials independently confirmed to FDD’s Long War Journal the authenticity of the photograph, as well as the identities of the three men. The intelligence officials said the photograph was taken in Tehran before 2015.

Yes: Beheading Fathers and Daughters is Islamic

Two recent (and despicable) homicides in context.

Two recent and rather unnatural atrocities underscore the murderous hate that Islam mandates for any and all who are perceived to defy its—or those who associate themselves with its—authority.

On Aug. 13, in France, a 25-year-old Muslim man beheaded his own 60-year-old father with a knife.  When police arrived on the scene, the defiant murderer tried to attack them while crying Islam’s triumphant war-cry, “Allahu Akbar,” thereby establishing his jihadist frame of mind.

Terror suspects like Shamima Begum will be treated like VICTIMS if they exploit modern slavery laws, watchdog warns amid claims Met Police covered for ‘Canadian spy’ who smuggled ISIS bride into Syria

Terror suspects like Shamima Begum could be treated like victims if they exploit modern slavery laws, the terrorism watchdog warned last night.

Explosive claims in a new book that the so-called Jihadi Bride was smuggled into Syria by a spy working for Canada – before Justin Trudeau’s nation then conspired with the UK to cover up its role – emerged this week.

It sparked calls for an inquiry into claims the Met and the government knew the alleged people smuggler was responsible for helping Begum and her two fellow schoolgirls join ISIS while also working as a double agent.

Liberal incompetence + identity politics = Laith Marouf affair

Marouf espouses the very opinions that should be targeted by any anti-racism program worth its salt.


Marouf was hired because he is a racist. It is the culmination of a culture change in our civil service that has placed fellow traveler racists in positions of power. Marouf’s hate is acceptable hate and you’re kidding yourself if you believe there aren’t more just like him sucking on the public teat.

The Left wants you to forget the embarrassing attack on Rushdie

In the West alternative models of civilization are competing for the upper hand and the healthy one is losing.

In an age like ours, so talkative and so free, it is always a bit surprising to see a certain moderation, to put it mildly, about events such as the stabbing of the novelist Salman Rushdie, threatened since 1989 for his ” irreverence towards Islam ”, or the beheading of a professor in front of a French school. The point is that in the West alternative models of civilization are competing for the upper hand and the healthy one is losing.

There is, of course, our heritage, built on Rome, Athens and Jerusalem. The legacy of Europe, the legacy of the West. But two strong rivals have emerged from this legacy.

One of these is imported: Islam, which is not just a metaphysical faith, but an alternative civilization to ours and which wants to replace it.

Trudeau defends CSIS after over claims agency informant smuggled girls into Syria

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stood behind the country’s top civilian intelligence agency on Wednesday in response to an allegation that one of its contractors helped traffic three British teenage girls to Islamic State extremists seven years ago.

A new book by U.K.-based writer Richard Kerbaj — The Secret History of the Five Eyes — is set to be published on Thursday. It claims that an informant for the Canadian Security and Intelligence Service (CSIS) smuggled Shamima Begum, 15 at the time, and her school friends Kadiza Sultana and Amira Abase — 16 and 15 at the time — into northern Syria, and that the informant told his Canadian handlers.

Disturbing video shows young Saudi women beaten and dragged by their hair

Security forces reportedly lashed the orphanage residents with belts and sticks after they staged hunger strike over poor living conditions

Saudi Arabia is investigating a disturbing video that shows security forces beating young women and dragging them around by their hair, after they reportedly staged a hunger strike over poor living conditions in an orphanage.

It came as a Saudi woman was sentenced to more than 40 years in jail for comments posted on social media, the second harsh sentence to be passed down this month to female online activists.

The video, which has shocked Saudis after going viral, shows the group of men holding down women dressed in black abayas while they are lashed with belts and sticks.

Canada’s spy agency accused of ‘nabbing British children and trafficking them’ to Islamic State

Asked if CSIS went too far and if there would be an inquiry, Justin Trudeau said ‘rigorous oversight mechanisms’ monitor CSIS operations

Ottawa is accused of covering up its handling of a double agent who smuggled British teenagers into Islamic State territory to join the terror group while he was spying for Canada.

Justin Trudeau, the prime minister, did not deny Ottawa’s work with an operative smuggling Western children to a dangerous battlefield, as outlined in a new book, saying that Canada’s spy agency must “be flexible and be creative” in the war against terrorists.

Couple accused of plotting to blow up the B.C. Legislature launches lawsuit

Amanda Korody and John Nuttall

A couple accused of plotting to blow up the B.C. Legislature with pressure cookers has filed a lawsuit against the federal government, province and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, arguing their Charter rights were violated and they were subjected to malicious prosecution and unlawful action.

A unanimous ruling by B.C.’s Appeal Court in December, 2018, upheld a judge’s decision to stay terrorism charges against John Nuttall and Amanda Korody due to entrapment by police. The pair was found guilty in June, 2015, of conspiring to commit murder and possessing an explosive in a public place on behalf of a terrorist group.

I believe both of these misfits need help of some kind. I followed this case in the news and it stank, it was the RCMP imitating FBI entrapment tactics.

Cover Up Of Canada’s Role Alleged: Jihadi Shamima Begum ‘was smuggled into Syria by a “Canadian” SPY

Shamima Begum and her two teenage friends were smuggled into Syria by a spy working for Canada –  Justin Trudeau’s nation then conspired with the UK to cover up its role, a new book claims.

The so-called Jihadi Bride was stripped of her British citizenship in 2019 after she fled Britain four years earlier to join the Islamic State (IS).

Fresh revelations claim the now-23-year-old was trafficked into the Middle East by a double agent, on the payroll of both IS and Canadian intelligence.

Somali pirates lose their grip on global shipping

Piracy in the Horn of Africa is no longer a threat to global shipping, an industry group has said, ending the era of swaggering Somali pirates taking hostages and seizing cargo.

From next year the Indian Ocean will no longer be considered high risk because no attacks on merchant vessels off Somalia have been reported since 2018. “This announcement is a testament to nearly fifteen years of dedicated collaboration to reduce the threat of piracy in the Indian Ocean,” the International Maritime Organisation said in a statement.

I’m sure Justin will offer them citizenship.

Islamist Terrorism Is Winning In The West

The new Islamist attempt to assassinate Salman Rushdie reminded me that years ago, the Egyptian-German scholar Hamed Abdel-Samad told Rushdie, at a 30th-anniversary celebration of the fall of the Berlin Wall, coinciding with the 30th anniversary of Ayatollah Khomeini’s fatwa ordering Rushdie’s assassination, “30 years ago, there was a Salman Rushdie in the world, today there is at least one Salman Rushdie in every Islamic country, not to mention those in Western countries.”

In 2012, Al-Qaeda published a list of critics of Islam as “most wanted” targets for assassination. Networks of Islamist websites today call for the assassination of extensive lists of infidels and “apostates” around the world. Some have already been killed, others silenced, and almost all live under police protection.

That’s a very long list.
