New details emerging from the investigation into Saturday’s terrorist attack in Berlin suggest the German authorities failed to prevent the massacre despite numerous warning signs and weeks of monitoring the attacker.
It has now emerged that the Islamist extremist who carried out Saturday’s deadly attack on Berlin’s Christopher Street Day (CSD) celebrations was being monitored by police until just an hour before the assault, but that surveillance footage was not watched in real time.
Gad Saad has lived in Canada since his family fled Lebanon in 1975 after someone showed up at their home to kill them. But last month, the professor of marketing and evolutionary behavioral sciences announced on social media that he had given up on Canada and decided to leave.
“The taxation system is astounding, rendering it nearly impossible to accumulate enough money to truly retire,” Saad wrote about the first reason for his decision. It’s true. The typical Canadian pays 70 percent more in income taxes than the typical American. The second reason is far more alarming. “The government’s open immigration policies have made it unsafe for my family to remain here (due to the exponential increase in Jew-hatred),” he wrote.
A group of Canadians detained overseas for allegedly being part of ISIS will “highly likely” pose a threat when they return home, warns an intelligence document obtained by Global News.
The Integrated Threat Assessment Centre report was written in June, after Iraq said it had taken custody of an unspecified number of ISIS members from Canada.
The suspects are liable to contribute to extremism once they returned to Canada, “either directly through an act of violence or indirectly by radicalizing others,” the intelligence report said.
Bet they’re considered cultural assets by the LPC.

The deadly vehicle attack in Germany has once again raised concerns about vehicles being used as weapons, as it follows a series of similar attacks around the world.
In this latest incident, one person was killed and more than a dozen others were injured after a vehicle drove into a crowd near Berlin’s Christopher Street Day (CSD) Pride celebrations on Saturday evening. The attack occurred in the Tiergarten area close to the Brandenburg Gate, where hundreds of thousands of people had gathered for one of Europe’s largest LGBTQ+ events.
There are many questions to be asked after Saturday night’s terror attack at a Pride event in Berlin. One thing that does seem pretty clear is the cause. Everything we know about the culprit, 21-year-old Abdul Ballout, points to the fact that his crimes were motivated by his Islamist beliefs.
Germany’s domestic intelligence agency believes there are 9,110 violent Islamist extremists nationwide, according to security figures that have been newly highlighted by the German media following Saturday’s deadly attack in Berlin.
The figures, released amid the investigation into the attack on the city’s Christopher Street Day celebrations, show that German authorities identified 28,645 Islamists across the country in 2025. Of those, around 450 are classified as individuals considered capable of committing serious politically motivated crimes, including terrorist attacks.
This weekend, in Berlin, a man named Abdul Ballout rammed his van into a crowd at a Pride festival in Berlin.
He was known to police as an Islamic extremist and had been convicted in both Lebanon and subsequently in Germany for trying to join ISIS and for planning a terrorist attack. Despite being an adult, he was tried as a juvenile and sentenced to…de-radicalization classes.
An American vigilante tears across an unnamed European country, killing dozens of police officers and judges, slaughtering a gang of rapists, and killing a refugee family and a random civilian – all in the name of a crusade against Muslim migrants and “woke” government officials.
Citizen Vigilante, a film from German director Uwe Boll and starring actor Armie Hammer, is violent – and very schlocky – stuff.
Initially denied a rating by German’s film regulator, it would likely have garnered very little attention, had it not caught the eye of the world’s richest person.
In Germany there is grief, shock and, increasingly, anger about the attack at Berlin Pride on Saturday night which left one Polish woman dead and injured at least 29 others.
The main suspect, Abdul Ballout, a 21-year-old German citizen with Lebanese heritage, was shot and killed by police on Sunday.
Germany’s Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt said Ballout “had previously drawn attention to himself through a high volume of criminal offences, radicalisation and affiliation with the Islamist scene.”

Note – Google Translate – According to the initial information we have gathered, the terrorist angle is not being prioritized. “Yet that’s what we thought at first,” a source close to the investigation confided. “The guy said, ‘Allah sent me to kill women.’ But no, he’s crazy.” In any case, the anti-terrorism prosecutor’s office has not taken up the case.
Downstairs on Rue Gilbert-Cesbron in Paris’s 17th arrondissement, this Parisian man practically stumbled upon the suspect. The young man was on the ground, “two knives near him.” He had just been subdued by police officers after being followed by an off-duty officer.

Rotterdam has introduced an unprecedented nighttime exclusion zone across large parts of the De Esch neighborhood following nearly three years of street racing, drug use, intimidation, prostitution, and persistent noise from migrant youth gangs.
The order, which took effect on Thursday evening, makes it a criminal offense to enter the designated area between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. without a valid reason. Police can fine anyone unable to explain why they are there.
🇳🇱 Parts of Rotterdam are now a no-go zone because of migrant gangs and anti-social behavior.

Don’t speculate. Don’t jump to conclusions. And whatever you do, don’t get angry. Sure, a woman is dead and others are horribly injured, after being rammed with a van and stabbed in Berlin last night. But we now have more details about the suspect. His name is Abdul. He’s reportedly an Islamist. And you know what that means. You must tame your fury and strangle your angst. Don’t be Islamophobic – shut your mouth.
Grégoire Canlorbe: What do we know, please, about the Islamization of Europe?
Alexandre del Valle: The Islamization of countries such as Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Sweden, or the Netherlands has, in my view, reached a critical threshold, perhaps even a point of no return. The reasons are at once demographic, cultural, and ideological. These recent minorities have not only reached a significant numerical weight; they also have much higher fertility rates. Above all, for the past twenty years or so, there has been not only a failure of assimilation, but a form of de-assimilation among populations that, until then, had seemed assimilated.
Berlin’s Senate Department for Interior Affairs confirmed that the fugitive suspect in a Saturday van ramming during Berlin Pride was shot dead in a police operation on Sunday.
The department functions as the Interior Ministry for the city-state of Berlin.
Berlin police also confirmed the operation, saying that they had localized the suspect at a garden allotment in Spandau on the western outskirts of the city around 6 p.m. local time (1600 UTC).
Berlin police shot at the suspect after he charged at officers while armed with a stabbing weapon, according to the statement.
Guys, the details of the latest jihadist attack in Europe are psychotic.

2 Dead, 29 Injured
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.
