Deadliest Al Qaeda Attack You’ve Never Heard of: 600 Civilians Dead in Burkina Faso Fails To Make Global Headlines

In an attack that may rank as one of the deadliest in Africa in recent years, up to 600 civilians were slaughtered in August in broad daylight by Al Qaeda-linked militants in Burkina Faso, according to a French government security report and confirmed to The New York Sun by a representative of the Norwegian Refugee Council.

This assessment triples the original death toll estimate put out by the United Nations from the August massacre in the remote town of Barsalogho. Armed fighters from Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin, an Al Qaeda affiliate based in Mali, opened fire as they stormed the town on motorcycles. Chilling videos shared on the terrorist group’s social media captured the moments of terror — civilians, including women and children, shot by automatic gunfire at close range as they lay helpless in the dirt, trying to play dead.

‘Tortured and Raped Multiple Times’: The Persecution of Christians, September 2024

“Khosravi said the main goal of detention isn’t always punishment or even to gather information, but to break a prisoner at such a fundamental level that they are shattered permanently…. Another Christian, forced to listen to the cries of a woman screaming in a near-by cell, was convinced by guards that it was his wife being raped repeatedly, he said.” — morningstarnews.org, October 1, 2024, Iran.

Gad Saad Survived War in Lebanon. He’s Warning About One in the West

In the 1940s, there were around 20,000 Jews still living in Lebanon. Just 20 years later, in the span of one generation, that number dropped to around 3,000. Gad Saad is among those statistics—born in Lebanon in 1964 into one of the last Jewish families to remain in the country.

But the nation that was once called the Paris of the Middle East began to turn when he was a child. He remembers being at school one day when a fellow student told the class he wanted to be a Jew killer when he grew up. The rest of the kids laughed. By 1975, Lebanon had descended into a brutal civil war, and Gad remembers death awaiting him every millisecond of the day. He spent his childhood years mindful of which streets had snipers when he went outside to play. But even then his family thought, This will pass. That is until someone showed up at their home to kill them—at which point the Saad family fled to rebuild their life in Canada. Gad went on to become a professor of marketing and evolutionary behavioral sciences at Concordia University in Montreal.

Dear Europe: happy submission!

In France alone, currently, more than 410 new mosques are being built.

It is difficult not to give in to pessimism, as the great Algerian novelist Boualem Sansal, author of “2084”, does when he says this week: “Islam is preparing to conquer France”.

The environmentalist municipality of the city of Strasbourg, which houses one of the two wings of the European Parliament, the European Court of Human Rights and the Council of Europe, has decided to turn off the cathedral’s lights at 11 pm “to save energy and money”.

The Parti Québécois is doubling down on secularism after Montreal’s Bedford school controversy

OTTAWA — Parti Québécois Leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon said he believes there is “religious infiltration” and “Islamist infiltration” in Quebec schools in the wake of a sprawling controversy about a Montreal school where teachers were accused of creating a climate of terror.

According to the separatist leader, the inaction of teachers, unions and school boards in the face of acts of indoctrination of children in classrooms should lead to a tightening of secularism in the province.


“The Bedford affair is now a national debate on welcoming immigrants to Quebec and the place of religion in schools”

The debate should be about the sinister act of our elites to import the supremacist cult of Islam to Canada.

Backlash over photos of Somali men at UN women’s conference

Outrage has erupted on social media after Somalia’s Family Minister Gen Bashir Mohamed Jama shared photos on X of himself and another male delegate representing Somalia at a UN meeting about women’s issues.

“It is tone-deaf for the Somali government to have men on the frontline, representing women at the conference,” Fathiya Absie, a well-known Somali author and human rights activist, told the BBC.

I bet Hussen attended.

Muslim terrorist mom of 6 dies in deportation centre after Canadian government refuses to repatriate her from Syria

A Quebec mother of six, once detained in northeast Syria, has died while waiting for repatriation. The Canadian woman was known only by her initials F.J.

The federal government refused to repatriate her, but brought home her two daughters and four sons to Montreal earlier this year.

Global Affairs Canada’s position was that F.J. posed a security risk, and that there were no means to control her behaviour once she entered Canada.

Eleven teachers in Quebec have been suspended for promoting what Premier François Legault referred to as “Islamist religious concepts” at a Montreal public school.

The now-former faculty members of Bedford Elementary included a mixture of men and women and many were of North-African descent.


Whoever made the decision to import Islamists to Canada should be jailed for life.

How to Save France?

In 2013, I wrote here about a new French bestseller, La France Orange Méchanique (France Clockwork Orange). In his book, the author, who adopted the pseudonym Laurent Obertone, did something very simple but also very powerful: looking past France’s national media, which, then as now, routinely either ignored or whitewashed or invented excuses for Muslim crime in that country, he examined the crime reports in countless local and regional media organs, all of which, it turned out, added up to a horrific picture of what Obertone described as a “new type of ultra-violent crime,” a “violence of conquest,” that had, it was clear, transformed what had once been a peaceful country into a veritable war zone.

We see this in Canada.

Amy Hamm: Let the terrorists speak, so we know who they are

I am a free speech absolutist. I am glad that Samidoun chanted, “Death to Canada,” and “Death to Israel,” on the steps of the Vancouver Art Gallery, because they unmasked themselves despite the keffiyehs hiding their faces.

I do not believe that Canada — or any country or jurisdiction — should have laws to criminalize speech — at all. So, it would be unprincipled and hypocritical were I to suggest that Canada’s growing population of antisemitic terrorist cheerleaders be told to shut up under threat of arrest and imprisonment.

The Pernicious Myth of “Islamophobia”

In August 2024, three children were brutally murdered by Axel Rudakubana, a 17-year-old male of Rwandan descent, in Southport, England. Given the countless jihadist atrocities that have been committed on British soil over the past 20 years, before the attacker could be identified, many people concluded that this was the latest case of Islamic terrorism. Armed with this understandable (though as yet unproven) assumption, these aggrieved Britons promptly took to the streets to express their anger. Regrettably, these protests would soon spiral into mindless violence – including attacks on mosques and asylum centres, which we at the Alliance of Former Muslims fiercely condemn.

CBC practically chokes discussing Montreal Muslim teacher controversy

A Montreal elementary school is at the centre of a secularism debate. Here’s how we got here

In the last few weeks, an elementary school in Montreal’s west-central Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood has been mired in controversy.

This past weekend, 11 teachers were suspended for allegedly creating a toxic environment for students and staff that goes back to 2016. On Tuesday, their teaching licences were also suspended.

The allegations are the subject of a 90-page government report.


They’re going to tolerate us all to death.

Please! Don’t draw any cultural conclusions!
