‘We must not allow woke activists to stop us confronting Islamist extremism,’ says former UK home secretary

A prominent British MP has warned against sanitising the deadly “ideological virus” of Islamism, claiming the woke minority are threatening efforts to root out Islamic terrorism.

Writing exclusively for the Telegraph, former home secretary Sajid Javid slammed those who cry “Islamophobia” when Western governments seek to deal with the challenges of Islamist extremism.

Javid, who is himself a Muslim, claimed that Western liberal democracies are under threat from a “grotesque form of separatism” that needs to be confronted. He added that President Emmanuel Macron is right – a reference to the French leader’s crackdown on Islamist extremism.

Austria: Playful “asylum seeker” teens make mock execution video – tell police “it’s perfectly normal” in their culture

Austria: Playful “asylum seeker” teens make mock execution video – tell police “it’s perfectly normal” in their culture

“…The teenagers said, according to “Today”, that such clips were “perfectly normal” in their culture and that it was a joke. FPÖ chairman Norbert Hofer identified a mockery of the victims of the attack in Vienna and demanded that the people involved and their parents be expelled: “This culture, which the young people talk about, has no place in our country.” Anyone who thinks something like this is funny and “shares such situations as videos in social networks has no place in our society.”

California: ISIS Jihadi Stabs Four in University Classroom, University Blames Toxic Masculinity

The FBI last Wednesday released new details about the case of Faisal Mohammad, who in November 2015, while he was a freshman at the University of California, Merced, entered a classroom and stabbed four people. It was already known back at the time of the attack that young Mohammad was a jihadi: The College Fix reported that he “was found to have an image of the ISIS flag, a handwritten manifesto with instructions on how to behead someone, and reminders to pray to Allah.”

Islamic State cell looking to free Western jihadi brides from Kurdish refugee camps in Syria in exchange for cash

A shadowy Islamic State fundraising cell seeking to free Western jihadi brides from Kurdish refugee camps in Syria has been exposed by The Mail on Sunday.

Undercover reporters spent weeks communicating with a ‘fixer’ in Turkey before catching a ‘courier’ on camera in London last Friday picking up what he thought was a £4,500 donation to the terror group’s cause.

In fact, the brown envelope left at the ‘dead drop’ contained only a crossword puzzle book.

Rotherham Groomer Kamir Khan Gets Short Sentence for Abusing 11-year-old Girl

South Asian heritage predator Kamir Khan has been imprisoned for grooming and abusing an 11-year-old girl in Rotherham.

31-year-old Khan is the latest in a long line of abusers to be convicted for abusing girls and young women in Rotherham, where South Asian heritage gangs once preyed upon mostly white, working-class victims in untold numbers with near-impunity for years, due to the authorities’ reluctance to intervene in case they were accused of “racism”.

Macron is right about Islamism

The political ideology that feeds terrorist violence cannot be explained away by religion or colonial history

President Macron’s hate affair with the American media continues, if a recent New York Times article is anything to go by. The president is not happy, and thinks the Anglo-Saxon press fails to understand French laïcité and the universalist model, as opposed to the Anglosphere model of multiculturalism, with its distinct roots in the British Empire. While this is undoubtedly true, the more pressing issue might be the gulf in understanding of Islamism, the target of Macron’s campaign.

Georgetown Features Academic Who Likens Austrian Counter-Terror Measures to Kristallnacht

In the wake of the recent jihad attack in Vienna, Austrian authorities are cracking down on Muslim organizations that have been discovered to be exhorting or approving of jihad terror activity – and Georgetown University’s Hamas-linked Bridge Initiative is not happy. On Thursday, it published a weepy self-pitying piece entitled “Xinjiang and Kristallnacht in Austria: Freedom of Religion Under Threat” by Farid Hafez, a political scientist in Austria who sees in Austria’s counterterror measures nothing less than a new Holocaust on the horizon. Of course! Why else would anyone oppose jihad violence, other than out of a desire to perpetrate genocide? This is what passes for academic discourse at Georgetown these days.

Junior, Mom and stepdad

An American boy who was made to threaten President Donald Trump in an Islamic State group video says it was “sweet relief” to return to the US.

Matthew, taken to Syria by his mother and stepfather, was 10 when he was filmed telling Mr Trump to prepare for a battle on US soil.

Now 13, he has been living with his father for a year, after being flown home by the US military in 2018.

“It’s happened and it’s done. It’s all behind me now,” he told the BBC.

“I was so young I did not really understand any of it.”
