Urooj Rahman is an attorney, not a bartender, but she knows her cocktails. She tossed a Molotov cocktail at an NYPD cruiser during the 2020 George Floyd riots in New York City. But now, in asking for a light sentence, she is serving up a different cocktail: vodka with a dash of Islamophobia. And really, it’s the Islamophobia that gives it its flavor.
In the past few years, the Palestinians have made it a habit to step up their manufactured incitement against Israel and Jews on the eve of Jewish holidays. This year has not been an exception.
In the days preceding the Jewish New Year holiday, celebrated in mid-September, Palestinian leaders, spokesmen and factions went on a frenzied campaign of threats, lies and misinformation that triggered a wave of violence and terrorism against Jews.
High school girls have become the latest Iranians to join anti-government protests in large numbers, as the country mourned a teenager killed in the first days of protests.
Nika Shahkarami, who lived in Tehran and would have turned 17 on Sunday, vanished in September. Her family found her body in a detention centre’s morgue 10 days later, BBC Persian reported.
On Tuesday, President Ebrahim Raisi called for unity against the protests even as they continued to grow, bringing together Iranians across ethnic and class divides, despite the government crackdown.
… But it also showed something else — how out of touch the Trudeau government has managed to get on the issue of how to deal with Tehran, at political risk to itself.
It was notable in Richmond Hill that the new Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre, managed to make sure he was front and centre before the assembled thousands, denouncing both the Iranian regime and the government’s failure to put sanctions on Tehran’s notorious Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
Justin’s handlers know that support for Iran’s regime is strong among the Shia Muslim community in Canada and particularly within the GTA, a key piece of the LPC’s strength.
Estimates are up to one quarter of Canada’s Muslims are Shia.
Justin will not be allowed to alienate a significant vote bloc.
ABUJA, Nigeria — Suspected Fulani herdsmen killed two Christians in Plateau state, Nigeria, a day after Islamic State terrorists allegedly killed two others in the city of Kano last Saturday, sources said.
In northern Nigeria’s Kano state, suspected members of the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) shot the two Christians to death at about 8 p.m. local time on Sept. 25 in the state capital, said area resident Chukwudi Iwuchukwu.
He identified the slain Christians as Ifeanyi Ilechukwu, 41, and Chibuke Emannuel, 33. Iwuchukwu said ISWAP terrorists approached them at their shop in Kano city’s predominantly Christian area of Sabon Gari in Fagge County.
Iran’s supreme leader has blamed the US and Israel for the anti-government protests sweeping the country, in his first public comments on the unrest.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said “riots” had been “engineered” by Iran’s arch-enemies and their allies, and alleged that Qurans had been burned.
He also called on security forces to be ready to deal with further unrest.
The protests – the biggest challenge to his rule for a decade – were sparked by the death in custody of a woman.
A hacker group known as 3ackd0or published the photos and personal information on Sunday of Iranians they claim were the morality police officers who arrested and beat Mahsa Amini, leading to her death.
The officers involved in Amini’s death were named as morality police patrol officers Fatameh Gurban Hosseini and Parastu Safari, Ali Khushnamond and Enayatullah Rafiei. The information shared by 3ackd0or included addresses, birth certificate numbers, birthdays, parents’ names and city of origin.

Ramzan Kadyrov, the Chechen leader and key Kremlin ally, called on Vladimir Putin to use tactical nuclear weapons against Ukraine in the wake of another major and embarrassing military defeat.
His comments marked the first time a Russian official has openly and explicitly called for the use of atomic bombs in Ukraine.
It came after Moscow admitted it had withdrawn from the key eastern city of Lyman on Saturday in the face of “significant superiority in forces and means”, handing Kyiv a major battlefield victory.

Belgian academic and economist Philippe Van Parijs explained to the newspaper De Standaard what happens when you lose national identity. “Brussels can no longer be called Belgium,” said Van Parijs, adding that the rest of Belgium is becoming more and more like Brussels.
Philippe Van Parijs had conducted a demographic study. His discoveries will surprise only those who want to remain blind. In ten years, the percentage of Brussels residents who have both parents with Belgian citizenship has gone down from just 36 to 26 percent. “There are more Brussels residents of Moroccan origin than Flemings or Walloons”.
In the past few days, the European Parliament has voted to isolate (when to expel?) Viktor Orbán’s Hungary. The real clash between Brussels and Budapest is over immigration. Not to all immigration, as Hungary welcomed 15,000 Ukrainians in a single day. No, only Islamic immigration.
When Kevin Paltridge’s son Corey was killed in the 2002 Bali bombings, the devastated father turned to other Australians whose children had died suddenly to try to cope with his own loss.
He quit his job as an airline supervisor and went to work at a funeral home, where he worked until his retirement a decade ago.
“I wanted to meet people who had lost kids,” he says.
It was a night that Leicester will not forget. Although tensions between sections of the Muslim and Hindu communities had been building since May, the scale of disturbances caught local authorities off guard, sending shockwaves all the way to India.
Violence, in which 16 police officers were injured while holding the line between rival groups of young men, has served a warning of how extremist agendas are blowing in from elsewhere, threatening a relatively harmonious tradition of multicultural coexistence.
Iran’s Islamic regime is the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world. The regime’s greatest victims are the Iranian people.
Iranians have been fighting to be free for the last 43 years. A series of protests have broken out in Iran after the killing of a 22-year-old Iranian woman, Mahsa Amini, who was beaten to death by the morality police in Tehran.
Islamic State insurgents in Mozambique were mauled to death and eaten by wild lions during with pro-government forces over multi-billion dollar gas reserves.
The ISIS-linked jihadists – labelled ISIS-Mozambique by the US – were attacked and killed by wild animals including lions and crocodiles as they hid from a military operation after attacking villages in Cabo Delgado province in north Mozambique.
The terrorists killed people and burned down their homes in the attacks.
Iran has arrested a young woman who defied morality police by eating in a restaurant without wearing a hijab, in an image that went viral on social media and inspired thousands of anti-regime protesters.
The photograph showed Donya Rad eating breakfast in a restaurant in Tehran, alongside a female friend who was also not wearing a headscarf.
Sadiq Khan was today branded ‘mean spirited’ and a ‘disgrace’ for snubbing a statue of the Queen on Trafalgar Square’s fourth plinth in favour of an anti-colonialist hero and a group of transgender sex workers.
Calls have been made in recent days for the plot, currently used for a different monument every two years, to have a permanent statue of Queen Elizabeth II. However, Mayor of London Sadiq Khan said the plinth would continue to be used for temporary installations, as it has since 1999.
The author AN Wilson blasted Mr Khan today, telling Times Radio that an equestrian statue of the Queen ‘would look really good unlike the succession of absolute rubbish that we’ve seen stuck on that plinth over the years’.
