For many years, it has been tantamount to racism to draw any connection between foreign nationals and criminal offending in the UK. But case after case shows that there is a connection, and that it is becoming stronger. This is particularly true when it comes to male immigrants from Afghanistan committing sexual offences.
“Wherever you came from, you came to America. And you came for one reason—for one reason only—to establish Allah’s deen,” Imam Siraj Wahhaj, a former vice president of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), had told Muslims, “democracy will crumble, and there will be nothing, and the only thing that will remain will be Islam.”
“Muslims in America are the most strategic Muslims on Earth,” the top Islamic figure, who has posed with numerous politicians, including Zohran Mamdani, said.
NEW WESTMINSTER — When I signed up for the BC Teachers’ Federation’s self-paced online anti-racism course, I expected tools for dealing with racism in schools.
Instead, I got an indigenous creation story about a Skywoman falling through a black hole onto a turtle’s back, followed by a poem telling me I live on “stolen indigenous lands,” along with instructions that I obey and actively support DRIPA, UNDRIP, and land-back efforts.
An Eritrean man who raped a pensioner outside a church can be pictured for the first time today.
Bruke Desalagne, 33, dragged the victim off a bench before taking him behind a hoarding at St John’s church in Harrow, north-west London, and raping him on a grass verge.
He continued with the horrific attack for 20 minutes before a witness saw the incident from her window and called police.
The latest arbitrary deadline to a gratuitous threat made by an untrustworthy president falls this week when Aug. 19 arrives and the U.S. does or does not introduce 50 per cent tariffs on a package of Canadian goods.
The degree to which this seizes Mark Carney might be indicated by the fact the prime minister chose to spend a week vacationing in Italy rather than nibbling his nails as the minutes ticked down. Sure, his aides say he stayed in close contact with Ottawa, but anyone who’s spent any time in Italy knows that distant crises always seem somewhat less desperate when considered over a cappuccino while pondering a statue or two in a pleasant piazza.

In 1949, Kazimierz Moczarski, a leading member of the Polish resistance, was in his fourth year of incarceration when he was moved into a cell with two Nazis at Warsaw’s Mokotów prison. One of them was Jürgen Stroop – a war criminal and SS general who had led the infamous destruction of the Warsaw ghetto and was responsible for the murder or capture of more than 56,000 Jews. They shared the same four walls for 255 consecutive days.

One of America’s most influential “experts” on combating hate just got arrested on charges of fraudulently funneling cash to white supremacist groups and financing her romantic relationship with a leader of a neo-Nazi group.
In a 2021 testimony to the House Committee on Veterans Affairs, Heidi Beirich declared, “There is no question that the major terrorism threat to the U.S. is coming from the far right.” That testimony forms part of her influence on federal policy, military policy, artificial intelligence companies, social media content moderation, and international advisory bodies.
Yet Beirich now stands accused of conspiring to create fake bank accounts to prop up the very extremism she has built a name for herself supposedly combatting.
