Islamization of the West

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.

Abdul Ballout was born in Berlin, but he left Germany for Lebanon.

Germany identified him as an Islamist threat, so they had him arrested in Lebanon and FLEW HIM BACK TO GERMANY to put him on trial for… pic.twitter.com/SBzh9W7Ix4

Spain recorded the highest number of arrests related to suspected Islamist terrorism in the European Union during 2025, according to Europol’s latest annual terrorism report.

The report states that Spanish authorities arrested 117 people on suspicion of Islamist-related terrorism offenses over the course of the year, the highest figure among all EU member states. Across the European Union, 486 terrorism-related arrests were made in 2025, with 347 linked to jihadist terrorism in 16 member states. That marks a return to roughly the same level seen in 2023, when 334 such arrests were recorded, following a decline to 289 in 2024.

The families of three girls murdered by Axel Rudakubana have accused the Southport killer of trying to ‘manipulate the system’ after he was transferred to Broadmoor.

The 19-year-old was moved to the secure psychiatric hospital from Belmarsh prison earlier this week after it was decided that he could not be managed safely in a prison environment.

Lawyer Chris Walker, of Bond Turner, who is representing the Southport families, said: ‘The three families we represent have been made aware of this development in the last 48 hours and it is safe to say that whilst this news would devastate them at any time, the fact that this has occurred as we approach the second anniversary in our view is another move by AR who would appear to be attempting, once again, to manipulate the system.

A dangerous Tunisian sexual predator has been convicted of attacking five women in just 90 minutes on Jersey, including attempting to rape one of his victims.

Abdelkarim Arfaoui, 27, showed no remorse, insisting he had merely been asking women for directions because he was new to the Channel Islands.

As Arfaoui was led away to prison after being convicted of all 10 charges at Jersey’s Royal Court, he refused to apologise to his victims, most of whom were attacked on their way to work.

If you missed Shmuel Klatzkin’s July 18 American Spectator essay, “The Nazis and the Mullahs,” please follow the link and take a moment to read it. It’s well worth your time. In our present historical moment, when leftists minimize the evil of the Iranian regime, he reminds us, in chapter and verse, of the mullahs’ historical alignment with the definitive evil of modern history. This is particularly important when our new generation of democratic socialists align themselves with radical Islam, while tossing the “nazi” label at everyone they disagree with — even, absurdly, at Israel.

Islamic jihad remained by far and away the largest terror threat facing the European Union, followed in second place by far-left extremists, the annual report by Europol found.

The European Union Terrorism Situation and Trend Report released this month stated that there were 45 terrorist incidents across Europe in 2025, of which 22 were completed, 20 were foiled, and 3 failed, resulting in the deaths of six people. Europol noted that this was a decrease over the previous year, when there were 58 attacks, 34 of which were successful, with five fatalities.
