An Afghan man has been sentenced to life in prison in Austria after trying to murder his 15-year-old daughter in a knife attack that prosecutors said was driven by claims of wounded family honor.
“Islamophobia”
Is Europe Ending Up as One Big No-Go Zone?
In late March, the European Conservatives and Reformists Group, a center-right political group in the European Parliament, published a report about no-go zones in Europe about no-go zones in Europe titled “Immigration, Islamisation, and the Rise of Parallel Societies: Focus on urban areas of Islamist entrenchment and state withdrawal,” authored by New Direction – Foundation for European Conservatism

Vance says Rep. Ilhan Omar is under DOJ investigation for immigration fraud ‘right now’
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department is investigating Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) for possible immigration fraud, Vice President JD Vance revealed Tuesday.
Omar has faced repeated questions over the years about her immigration status — as well as her family finances and potential ties to a COVID-era fraud scheme in Minnesota.
“I don’t want to prejudge an investigation,” Vance told reporters at the White House. “It certainly seems like something fishy is there, but everybody’s entitled to equal justice under the laws.”
Germany Warns Iran May Target Jews and Dissidents Across Europe
Germany’s domestic intelligence agency has warned that Iran could expand covert operations across Europe once fighting with the U.S. and Israel subsides, raising fears of attacks on Jewish targets, Israeli institutions, and opponents of the Tehran regime.
The Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz (BfV) said Iranian dissidents and other individuals regarded by Tehran as “traitors” would face particular danger if the regime increases its intelligence and proxy activities across the continent.
‘No Go Zones’ and ‘Parallel Societies’
For years, author Mark Steyn mentioned no-go zones and unassimilated communities. In 2017 Raheem Kassam authored the book No Go Zones: How Sharia Law is Coming to a Neighborhood Near You. A comment about the book included the following:
“As I read this book, I had forgotten how many people have been murdered in the West in the name of Islam. The commonness with which these attacks are occurring is frightening and even more so, is how numb we’ve become to it. How much blood will be shed before politicians acknowledge the root cause of the problem? Europe is being transformed before our very eyes and everyone is just averting their gaze. This ignorance is allowing these extremist attitudes to fester and the unwillingness to criticize Islam is the catalyst of this problem.
Now almost a decade later, the New Direction – the Foundation for European Conservatism has published “No-Go Zones Immigration, Islamisation, and the rise of Parallel Societies.”
Report claims dozens of workplace complaints tied to pro-Palestinian views among Muslims in Canada
A Department of Justice report says hundreds of Muslims in Canada have reported workplace consequences linked to their political views, particularly support for Palestine.
The report, A Qualitative Look at Serious Legal Problems: Muslims in London and Toronto, attributes the findings to advocacy and legal support data provided by the Canadian Muslim Lawyers Association of Toronto, which says it has assisted more than 300 individuals who faced workplace repercussions related to their political expression.
New Bill Would Ban Radical Religious Leaders From Entering the United States
Rep. Chip Roy introduced the Inhibiting Militant Adversarial Mullahs (IMAM) Act on Monday, which would bar radicalized leaders of certain religious denominations from being admitted into the United States.
“The United States should never roll out the red carpet for foreign clerics who preach anti-American hatred, celebrate terrorism, or serve as mouthpieces for radical regimes,” the Texas Republican told the Daily Signal in a statement.
A Montreal man is wanted by the RCMP for terrorism, but Canada won’t take him back
Wassim Boughadou is wanted by the RCMP for terrorism. He insists he is “absolutely” willing to fly home from Turkey to surrender to police.
But the Montreal-born 34-year-old claims he can’t because Global Affairs Canada won’t let him.
“I am in a limbo,” he wrote in a text message, part of a cache of documents obtained by Global News that have gone unreported until now.
Additional background on this terrorist.
‘Disposable’ operatives for hire are a new menace for western countries
When on Friday a 32-year-old Iraqi was brought before a court in New York to be charged with planning to attack Jewish community sites in the US, a curtain was suddenly lifted on a corner of a shadowy world.
The detention of Mohammed Saad Baqer al-Saadi in Turkey last week revealed rare details of Iran’s efforts to use terrorism to sow discord among communities in Europe, the UK and the US – but also the outlines of an uncertain and threatening future.
Al-Saadi is a senior commander of the Baghdad-based Kataib Hezbollah, a powerful militia with close links to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). He is accused of being connected to 18 separate attacks including firebombings of synagogues and community centres in Belgium, the Netherlands and the UK. Among them also is the stabbing in Golders Green, which left two Jewish men badly injured last month.
Hamas memos show Canadian-funded charities worked with terror group, NGO says
According to a report by an Israeli NGO, Hamas’s own internal memos show it has been working in tandem with Canadian government‑funded charities and non‑governmental organizations.
The documents, which the Israeli army says it seized during its Gaza counteroffensive, detail how the terror organization allegedly infiltrated and exploited international NGOs operating in the Strip.
Selling children to survive: Afghan fathers forced to make impossible choices
As dawn breaks, hundreds of men gather at a dusty square in Chaghcharan, the capital of Ghor province in Afghanistan.
They line the roadside with weary faces, hoping someone will come along offering any work. It will determine whether their families eat that day.
The likelihood of success, however, is low.
Juma Khan, 45, has found just three days of work in the past six weeks that paid between 150 to 200 Afghani ($2.35-$3.13; £1.76-£2.34) per day.
This is the Glory of Islam.
Cops were already hunting San Diego mosque shooters after mom raised alarm that one was armed and suicidal
The concerned mom of one of the teen San Diego mosque shooters had frantically alerted cops that her suicidal son had run away in camo and with some of her weapons — sparking a huge hunt in the hours before the bloodshed unfolded.
Police spent two hours scrambling to locate the suspects — identified as 17-year-old Cain Clark and 18-year-old Caleb Velasquez — before the gunshots rang out at the Islamic Center of San Diego on Monday.
Should it be a crime to mock the burqa?
For a brief moment on Saturday afternoon, a befuddled silence fell over the 60,000-strong crowd that had gathered in central London for the ‘Unite the Kingdom’ rally. Three women dressed in niqabs – the full Islamic dress that allows only a thin horizontal slit for seeing – emerged on stage. For a moment, confusion reigned in Parliament Square.
Owen Jones is a ridiculous little man.
No condemnation from our politicians.
No outrage from the media.
No action by the police.
British Muslims are sent a clear message:
You are fair game for hatred. https://t.co/5iTSMpmcBf
