Around 40 pro-Palestinian activists stormed the main building of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) on Friday, November 7th, setting off fireworks from the roof and displaying a banner.

The activists occupied the building for about two hours before leaving, after the university threatened them with trespassing charges. Police then secured the entrances. According to authorities, around 500 people joined the broader demonstration across Munich with 100 police officers deployed. No further incidents were reported.

Bavaria’s Commissioner for Jewish Life and the Fight against Antisemitism, Ludwig Spaenle, condemned the protest, stating that while criticism of the Israeli government is legitimate, defaming German academic institutions is unacceptable. He described the activists’ claims about TUM’s alleged involvement in Gaza’s suffering as “vile slander” and “completely unfounded.”

A nonprofit with deep ties to anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour, strong supporter of New York City’s Democrat socialist Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, reportedly has received more than $4 million in taxpayer money.

The revelation raises questions about how far Mamdani’s administration will go in funding radical activism.

Public records reviewed by The Washington Free Beacon showed that the Arab American Association of New York, which Sarsour ran for more than a decade, received $3.3 million from New York City and $854,000 from New York state between 2017 and 2024.

FDNY Commissioner Robert Tucker resigned last Wednesday morning, less than 12 hours after Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the New York City mayoral race over Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa, according to the Daily News and Firehouse.

In a letter to Mayor Eric Adams, Tucker said his final day will be Dec. 19. “Between now and then, I will continue to lead the greatest fire department in the world and will ensure an orderly transition,” he wrote.

A department source said Tucker has had no discussions with Mamdani’s team about remaining in his post.

The source added that Tucker, who is Jewish and a Zionist, believed he wouldn’t align well with Mamdani, a Democratic socialist who faced criticism during the campaign for remarks some viewed as anti-Semitic.

The report notes that Tucker, CEO of a private security firm and longtime member of the FDNY Foundation board, was appointed commissioner in August 2024, succeeding Laura Kavanagh, the department’s first female commissioner.

The Austrian Interior Ministry is continuing deportations to Afghanistan, if not exactly at breakneck speed. Early Sunday morning, a man convicted of drug-related crimes was deported back to his homeland. This marks the second deportation to Afghanistan since the Taliban regained power.

The Ministry has stepped up deportations in recent months, also returning Somali and Syrian nationals for the first time in decades. Interior Minister Gerhard Karner (ÖVP) emphasised that further deportations are planned to both Afghanistan and Syria.

The man, convicted in March for attempting to sell drugs in Vienna, was transported to Kabul via Istanbul under the supervision of Austrian police. Despite increased deportations, Austria has continued to approve Afghan asylum applications, with nearly 4,000 accepted in the first three quarters of the year and a recognition rate of 76%.

Brussels is grappling with widespread and increasing crime that shows little signs of abating. This weekend’s crimes yet again underscore the need for the government to urgently restore safety and reassure citizens amid the escalating violence.

On Friday, shots were fired at a group of people in the Schaerbeek district, fatally wounding a 25-year-old man. The suspects fled the scene, and authorities are currently looking for witnesses who may be able to provide information about the incident.

A few kilometers away, also on Friday evening, a police check almost ended in tragedy. Two patrol officers narrowly avoided being run over by a speeding car that deliberately drove toward them while they were conducting a vehicle inspection. They managed to jump out of the way at the last moment, but the car crashed into their police vehicle, severely damaging it. The driver—a 36-year-old man under the influence of alcohol—was arrested at the scene.

An explosion occurred in Antwerp early Saturday morning. Authorities believe the attack may be drug-related but say all possible motives are still being investigated. The Belgian city has become one of Europe’s largest drug-import hubs. Drug gangs often consist of young people with migrant backgrounds who struggle to find work in the traditional labor market.

The drug trade is partly responsible for the sharp deterioration in public safety in the capital and the recent wave of armed attacks. The situation has become so dangerous nationwide that the Minister of the Interior has announced an increase in police presence across Belgium and the installation of around €20 million worth of surveillance cameras in major cities. By the end of the year, soldiers will be deployed on the streets of Brussels to deter criminals.

A Sudanese paramilitary group accused of slaughtering civilians in the city of El Fasher has been linked to fresh atrocities hundreds of miles to the east.

Galvanised by its capture of the last army-held stronghold in Darfur, the widely feared Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has escalated a bloody offensive against towns and cities in the Kordofan region of central Sudan.

As in El Fasher, RSF fighters have reportedly carried out summary executions and used starvation tactics as they seek to regain momentum in a two-and-a-half-year civil war that has brutalised one of Africa’s most troubled states.

The advance into Kordofan – which will bring the RSF closer to Khartoum, Sudan’s capital – is likely to deepen a crisis that has driven millions from their homes and may have claimed hundreds of thousands of lives.

Governments attempting to restore ties with the Taliban are instead risking the legitimization of oppression. Doing so would deepen Afghanistan’s crisis, an independent UN human rights expert cautioned on October 30, calling for a principled approach that defends the rights of women and girls.

As the Taliban tighten control over Afghan society, everyone is forced to follow regulations and norms that the group has imposed. This includes the ban on women employees and a requirement that women must wear a burqa and have a male companion while traveling outside of the home. Everyone is expected to rigidly follow Islamic disciplines, especially going to the mosque. Failure to observe such requirements raises suspicion, and anyone can report violators to the local imam and/or Sharia police.

I doubt that ‘Islam’ as used here is strictly fair. It depends on what flavor of Islam is in charge. This is like talking about Christianity-controlled society and merely looking at Puritan Massachusetts. Catholic-controlled Maryland, or Anglican-controlled Virginia, were quite different. Saudi Arabia and the UAE are quite different, while both being thoroughly “Muslim-controlled”.

ust hours after New York City’s mayor election was called for Zohran Mamdani, a top Israeli official issued an invitation.

“New York will never be the same again, especially not for its Jewish community,” Diaspora Minister Amichai Chikli tweeted. “I invite the Jews of New York to seriously consider making their new home in the Land of Israel.”

Chikli’s call dovetailed with another appeal to Jewish New Yorkers made by a spokesman for the Jewish settlement in Hebron, Yishai Fleisher.

“Indeed, it was a great run, and you were a blessing to NYC. But Jews will feel less and less comfortable in the Big Apple,” tweeted Fleisher. “So do yourself a favor, buy real estate in the Land of Israel.”

Austrian intelligence has uncovered a suspected Hamas-linked weapons depot in Vienna, seizing five handguns and ten magazines believed to have been smuggled into the country for potential attacks on Jewish or Israeli targets in Europe.

The cache was discovered inside a suitcase in a rented storage unit following weeks-long, internationally coordinated investigations by Austria’s state security and intelligence service (DSN). Officials said the matériel has been confiscated.

A 39-year-old British citizen—identified in Germany as Mohammed A.—was arrested in London on Monday. Prosecutors allege he twice met Abdel Al-G., who was detained in Germany last month on suspicion of planning attacks, and transported the weapons to Austria. He is expected to be extradited to Germany.

A British crime agency confirmed the arrest. Hamas has denied any connection to the suspects.

European services warn the case suggests the group had pre-positioned arms in Europe for possible operations.

An 18-year-old man has been charged in Sweden for planning a terrorist attack on a cultural festival in Stockholm in the name of the Islamic State.

Prosecutors say he studied how to make explosives, bought materials and a body camera and scouted the attack site. Authorities believe the arrest in February prevented a major attack.

The suspect, who had repeatedly sworn allegiance to IS, will go on trial next week alongside a 17-year-old also accused of terrorism-related crimes.

President Macron said he was “shocked” by the November 5th vehicle-ramming attack on the island of Oléron, off the Atlantic coast. As evidence mounts against the perpetrator, the authorities are increasingly embarrassed by the suspect’s ‘religious’ motives.

On Wednesday, at around 9:30 a.m., a man in his thirties injured ten people by deliberately crashing his vehicle into them in an incident that lasted around 35 minutes. He was eventually arrested and taken into custody after setting fire to his car and opening a gas cylinder.

This time, the press was quick to point out that the suspect was “of Caucasian origin”—a description that has no particular legal significance in France, but which serves to dispel any suspicion of ‘racism’ regarding the attacker’s possible foreign origin. He is indeed a French national, goes by the name of Jean Guillot and has a ‘European’ profile: he is tall, white and blond.

In late October 2025, the paramilitary group Rapid Support Forces (RSF) launched a decisive assault on the city of El Fasher in North Darfur, marking a grim turning point in the ongoing war in Sudan. After an 18-month siege, the city’s last remaining hold-out of the national army in Darfur finally fell, sending tens of thousands of civilians fleeing and leaving behind a scene of carnage. ?

The RSF had surrounded the city with earthen berms and embargoed supplies for months, cutting off access for humanitarian aid and escape routes for civilians. ? On October 26 2025 they announced they had full control of the army’s 6th Division headquarters and other key positions inside El Fasher. ?

Once the RSF took control, multiple credible sources reported mass killings, summary executions, house-to-house raids, and attacks on hospitals and fleeing civilians. Satellite imagery and video footage show clusters of what appear to be bodies in public spaces, and large red stains on the ground consistent with mass fatalities. ? One hospital—the Saudi Maternity Hospital in the city—was reported to have been stormed and dozens of wounded, civilians and soldiers alike, were killed while lying in beds. ?

According to medical networks and human rights monitors, the death toll is likely in the thousands. A conservative estimate put the number at at least 1,500 civilians killed in the space of a few days, with some claiming over 2,000 fatalities. ? Ethnic motivations are also alleged, with the RSF targeting non-Arab sedentary communities in the Darfur region, prompting rights groups to call the assault a “true genocide”. ?

The IDF continues operations against Hamas infrastructure inside the Yellow Line, conducting targeted strikes on Hamas violations of the ceasefire agreement in recent days.

Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz stated on Wednesday that “Israel’s policy in Gaza is clear: the IDF is acting to destroy the tunnels and eliminate Hamas terrorists without any restrictions within the yellow area under our control.”

“The goal alongside the return of all the hostages, the casualties, is to disarm Hamas of its weapons and demilitarize Gaza.”

Iranians on Tuesday celebrated the anniversary of the 1979 takeover of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran — the first such commemoration since the U.S. bombed Iran’s nuclear facilities during a 12-day war with Israel in June.

On Nov. 4, 1979, Iranian students overran guards to take over the embassy, seizing dozens of hostages in a crisis that would last for more than a year.

In what is a yearly commemoration, thousands of people returned to the spot in downtown Tehran on Tuesday chanting “death to U.S.” and “death to Israel.”

Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian has reiterated in fresh weekend comments to state media that the Islamic Republic is not seeking to build a nuclear weapons; however, he did say something sure to catch the attention the United States and Israel.

He asserted that Tehran will rebuild its nuclear facilities “with greater strength” following the US bombing of three nuclear complexes during the June war with Israel. “Destroying buildings and factories will not create a problem for us, we will rebuild and with greater strength,” the Iranian president stated.

If they’re not building nuclear weapons, why the insistence on building nuclear facilities? They don’t need nuclear power plants; they aren’t allowed to sell all of the oil they produce, so they ought to be set. This is a lie, and not even a  particularly good one.

In a sane country, it would be unthinkable that the murder of a two-year-old boy would go effectively unpunished. And yet this is exactly what is happening in Germany. In January this year, a 28-year-old Afghan asylum seeker—Enamullah Omarzai—launched a brutal attack on a group of toddlers on a daycare outing, at a park in Aschaffenburg, Bavaria. With a large kitchen knife, he began stabbing two of the children—a two-year-old Moroccan boy and a two-year-old Syrian girl. One of the female teachers, as well as two male passersby, attempted to intervene, allowing the remaining teacher and children to escape. In the struggle, one teacher had her hand broken, while the two men were stabbed. The little boy and a 41-year-old man both died from their injuries.

Last week, as the trial for this case culminated, Judge Karsten Krebs decided that Omarzai could not be held criminally responsible for his actions. The court-appointed psychiatrist testified that Omarzai was suffering from a severe mental illness, and had heard voices in head that instructed him to attack the children. It was also apparently highly likely that Omarzai would commit more “highly aggressive acts,” if he was not detained in a facility. He had also previously been prescribed medication, which he refused to take, and had repeatedly been released from psychiatric care, apparently because he did not pose any risk to others.

The details of this case will be grimly familiar. Omarzai arrived in Germany in 2022, after travelling through Bulgaria, Austria, and France. His asylum claim was rejected and he had been under a deportation order since 2024. But, by January this year, he was still in the country. He had also had numerous run-ins with the police, including for assault and property damage. Between the deportation order, the mental-health services, and the interactions with police, there were plenty of opportunities for Omarzai to be kept off the streets. The failure of all these agencies led to the deaths of an innocent child and a man who was simply trying to do the right thing.

Arab reports said that “mediators” of the ceasefire were requesting the Israeli government to allow the terrorists safe passage to the Hamas-held side of the ceasefire.

At the time of writing, it seems fairly likely that a Somali Muslim named Omar Fateh will shortly be elected mayor of Minneapolis, and it looks almost certain that a Ugandan desi Muslim named Zohran Mamdani will be elected mayor of New York City.

Dearborn, Michigan already has a Muslim mayor, but the city has a majority Muslim population, so that makes sense. In contrast, Muslims in New York and Minneapolis are a minority. A substantial and rapidly increasing minority, but still a minority.

So how do those cities manage to elect Muslim mayors?

In order to be elected mayor of a major American metropolis, a Muslim candidate has to persuade a large number of non-Muslims to vote for him. Those infidel voters will include many African-Americans, but the votes of plenty of white people will also be needed. In order to persuade all those kuffar to pull the lever for a Muslim, the would-be mayor and his handlers will need to convince them that the candidate is just the man they need to deliver everything they want. That requires the candidates to be less than truthful in what they tell the voters.

I’ve been observing the mendacious public utterances of prominent Muslims for more than twenty years, and continue to be impressed with the ease with which they deceive their non-Muslim audiences. Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, a.k.a. the “Ground Zero imam”, comes to mind as a consummate master at fooling the infidel, but the “Swiss philosopher” Tariq Ramadan — now sadly incarcerated in a French prison — is no slouch, either.

Messrs. Fateh and Mamdani have an easier time of it, since they have risen to their current prominent positions as Democratic Socialists, whose secular adherents are also systematically dishonest in their dealings with the electorate. Like devout Muslims, they believe that the ends justify the means when it comes to building the socialist state. Their willingness to elide the truth, not just out of expediency but as a matter of principle, makes them like Muslims without Allah. Their paradise is an earthly one, and may or may not offer seventy-two virgins as one of its rewards, but the ideology is much the same.

Newsbusters.

Last weekend 460 patients and their associates were massacred at Saudi Maternity Hospital in el-Fasher, Sudan. This was acknowledged by the World Health Organization last Wednesday, when they reported that the RSF, the Rapid Support Forces, a Sudanese paramilitary force, in other words, terrorists, had committed the heinous act, as well as other slaughters in and around Darfur. One would think that this kind of horror would be widely reported on. When it comes to the nightly newscasts on CBS and ABC, one would be wrong.

Let’s start with the CBS Evening News. They did not mention the attack even once all week — that’s zero seconds — but they did have time for plenty of Halloween stories. On Friday evening, which was Halloween, the broadcast spent one minute on Halloween weather around the country. They ran a two minute package on “spooky” Halloween decorations, and the debate over whether or not they are too scary for children. And the best for last, a three minute segment on toilet paper being used by mischievous trick or treaters using toilet paper to ‘decorate’ homes and businesses in Heflin, Alabama, something the police are understandably not happy about. Bari Weiss, are you watching?

Over on Friday’s ABC’s “World News Tonight”, they could muster only 19 seconds of coverage of the hospital slaughter and the ongoing killings in Sudan, as anchor David Muir told his audience, “Overseas tonight a horrific scene unfolding in Sudan. Allegations of genocide in Darfur. Mass killings reported over a 72 hour period. Rebels storming a hospital this week, massacring hundreds of patients, visitors and medical staff. Reports of gunmen going door to door. Rebels claim they captured the final holdout of the Sudanese army in Darfur.” Then it was on to him promoting a Halloween story, coming up next!

The Sudan Rapid Support Forces (RSF) is a powerful paramilitary group that originated from the Janjaweed militias active during the Darfur conflict. Formed officially in 2013 under the government of Omar al-Bashir and commanded by General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (known as Hemedti), the RSF gained significant power over the years. It has been accused of severe human rights abuses including war crimes, ethnic killings, sexual violence, and forced displacements, particularly against non-Arab ethnic groups in Darfur. The RSF fought alongside and against the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) in the ongoing civil war that began in April 2023.

Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, who once fought alongside foreign fighters while killing American soldiers in Iraq, will enjoy his red carpet reception in Washington on November 10.

This will also mark the first time a former ISIS member will be hosted in the Oval Office, an absurdity which would have been hard to believe a mere decade ago. But the US-Saudi-Israel axis reached its regime change goal in Damascus, which overthrew the secular Arab nationalist leader Bashar al-Assad, which resulted in the Islamist Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) taking over.

The US has released drone footage showing what it claims is Hamas hijacking an aid truck in southern Gaza.
The video shows a number of men appearing to move the driver from the cab of the vehicle then leaving him inert in the road’s central reservation.

It was published by the US Central Command, which has recently set up a multinational headquarters in Israel.

The incident took place while Gen Dan Caine, the US chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, was on an official visit to Israel as a guest of the IDF chief of staff.

Israel has long argued that Gaza’s hunger problems in the first half of the summer were primarily caused by Hamas’s widespread looting of the aid supply, although this was denied by the United Nations and other aid organisations.

Centcom said in a statement that its new Civil-Military Coordination Centre “observed suspected Hamas operatives looting an aid truck travelling as part of a humanitarian convoy delivering needed assistance from international partners to Gazans in northern Khan Younis”.

In the West there is a tradition of thinking through absolutely everything all the time like a skilled rogue dismantling every theoretical obstacle and combative conundrum.* Free speech developed from the tradition of logically thinking through every idea and example your professor threw at you.

Islam since al-Ghazali has given up on using reason to figure out the Q’ran, G-d or philosophy. Blind submission is required. There is an illuminating discussion where an imam debates a Christian and the entire debate is an exercise in avoiding how a part of the Q’ran makes sense. The Muslim Apologist uses logical sounding words to avoid the Christian talking about the Q’ran but the Muslim tries to avoid logical arguments.

While I’m far from an expert on these matters, every ex-Muslim I’ve listened to has said that they were never taught critical reasoning. They were taught to memorize the Q’ran even though they had no real idea of what the Q’ran meant and then not to question anything. I find that off-putting but it has an alien appeal to many others.

My personal opinion is that Islam was deliberately created by Satan as a tool to suppress (if not destroy) God’s Chosen People, the Jews. Muslims don’t like Christians very much but they REALLY HATE Jews, for no discernible reason other than that The Recitation Says So.

Qatar has weaponised “mediation”: it has bankrolled Islamist power, posed as the indispensable broker, and sat on the leverage it had over Hamas from the start. For nearly two years, it has blamed Israel instead. Only when pressure escalated into strikes on Qatari soil—and the US sweetened the deal with guarantees and alternative investments—did Doha finally shift.

A week after the massacre of 7 October 2023, I sat with a cohort of young Jewish professionals in Washington, DC, under the auspices of the Israel Policy Forum. The air was thick with grief and confusion, and no one quite knew how to name what had happened yet. “This is a moment for humility,” said Aaron David Miller. At which point, I asked the same question I asked in every room I entered: “What are we doing about Qatar?”

The question was met with blank stares and raised eyebrows. One congressional staffer looked at me sideways, as if I was pushing a conspiracy theory. Only Hussein Ibish, senior scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute, seemed to understand. He nodded and explained: Qatar might hold the keys to resolution, but it has compromised the United States, because it built the largest US military base in the Middle East and handed the Pentagon the keys for free.

Youth violence in North Rhine-Westphalia has increased significantly, according to a study by the University of Cologne and the State Criminal Police Office. Interior Minister Herbert Reul presented the findings showing that children are increasingly involved in crimes.

The study surveyed about 3,800 students across 27 schools in Gelsenkirchen, Marl, and Herten. Researchers found rising violence, disrespect, and younger perpetrators. Social media and pandemic-related domestic violence are cited as contributing factors.

But while German children’s crime rates decreased by 17% between 2013 and 2024, offenses among migrant children in the studied cities rose sharply. Girls under 14 are also committing more crimes, with their offenses increasing by nearly 150%.

In 2020, 39 crimes classified as “Islamism/Fundamentalism” were recorded in the state, rising to 105 in 2024.

The increase was particularly sharp in 2023 and 2024. Incidents involving the threat of serious crimes—including murder, manslaughter, sexual coercion, and rape—rose from three in 2020 to 35 last year. Property damage also increased, with 16 cases in 2023 compared to only four in 2021. Two homicides and three assaults were reported in 2024, marking some of the highest numbers in five years.

On March 5th, 2025, an Iraqi man sexually harassed a 22-year-old woman in Dresden, and the next day he allegedly grabbed a 17-year-old girl’s buttocks, demanding that she go with him. When the minor resisted, the man fled. Shortly thereafter, he started harassing a 10-year-old girl, who started screaming for help, causing the man to flee again. After this latter incident, the police successfully apprehended and arrested him. At the police station, the man continued his rampage by verbally abusing the interpreter and then threatening to kill her.

23-year-old Ismail A. was first granted asylum in Sweden upon his arrival in Europe. He then traveled to Germany and submitted another application there. According to the Dublin Regulation, the country where the application was first submitted is responsible for assessing the asylum application. Accordingly, the police sent him back to Sweden for the second time. After being deported to Sweden in June, 2025 he returned a month later.

Ismail had already come to the attention of the Federal Police in 2024 for resisting ticket inspections, sexual harassment, public indecency, defamation, and obtaining services by deception. When he returned to Germany in the summer of 2025, the Dresden public prosecutor’s office issued an involuntary commitment order against him. He was therefore temporarily placed in a psychiatric hospital, where he was diagnosed with psychosis and schizophrenia. Although this was most likely caused by drug use, he cannot be held criminally responsible.

The German government has disclosed that a total of 135,668 crimes have been committed by Syrian suspects between 2015 and 2024, amounting to one every 39 minutes over the past 10 years.

The figures, released by the Federal Ministry of the Interior in response to a parliamentary inquiry from the AfD, have reignited the party’s demands for tougher migration controls and deportations.

The data, obtained by Freilich magazine, also shows large numbers of victims of crimes committed by suspects from other countries of origin, including 82,960 linked to Afghanistan, 69,946 to Iraq, 39,918 to Morocco, and 32,383 to Algeria. Altogether, more than 460,000 crimes were recorded in the 10-year period involving suspects from the 10 main countries of origin: Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Morocco, Algeria, Nigeria, Pakistan, Somalia, and Eritrea.

In respect to Afghan suspects, that’s one crime every 63 minutes; for Iraqis, one every 75 minutes; for Moroccans, one every 132 minutes; and for Algerians, one every 162 minutes.

The click-bait headline, and the pseudo-analysis that follows, demonstrates the degeneration that has afflicted modern ‘journalism’ for decades. *sigh*

This morning at Westminster Magistrates Court, he sat between two security guards, his head bowed between his legs, refusing to confirm his name or greet the judge.

He is accused of fatally stabbing 49-year-old council worker Wayne Broadhurst and causing permanent injuries to 45-year-old Shahzad Farrukh, his landlord. The court heard that Farrukh suffered life-changing injuries and is expected to remain in hospital for some time. He is also charged with the attempted murder of a 14-year-old boy, who has since been discharged from hospital.

A Channel migrant has been jailed for at least 25 years for murdering a bank customer shortly after his asylum application was rejected.

Haybe Cabdiraxmaan Nur, a Somali national who paid €400 (£350) to travel to Britain last year, attacked Gurvinder Singh Johal, 37, with a kitchen knife at a branch of Lloyds Bank in Derby.

The 47-year-old had called the charity Migrant Help less than two hours before the killing, which happened at about 2.30pm on May 6, saying he was “going to kill 500 people”, Derby Crown Court heard.

He later suggested he was going to target “doctors, police or people working at the Home Office”.

Nur had claimed asylum in October last year but his application was rejected by the Home Office because he had arrived “voluntarily”, a decision he later appealed against.

Asylum seekers are presumably safe once upon their arrival in Greece. Yet thousands upon thousands are continuing their journeys to Germany anyway.

New data—revealed as part of a response to a parliamentary question from the Green Party—show that well over 100,000 migrants with protection status recognised in Greece have reapplied for asylum in Germany.

Of these, around 45,000 came from Afghanistan, 36,000 from Syria and 12,000 from Iraq. Somalia, Iran, and Sudan are also listed as countries of origin, while the nationality of around 5,000 individuals remains unknown.

But Greece is poor, and Germany is rich. Follow the money.

An ISIS fanatic allegedly plotted to murder Jews in Manchester, England, boasting to an undercover agent about “poisoning their children” and “executing” them, a British court heard this week.

Walid Saadaoui, 37, a Tunisian-born former restaurateur, allegedly planned a summer 2024 massacre targeting Jewish schools, synagogues, and restaurants across the northern English city.

Prosecutors said his goal was simple: to kill “as many Jews as possible.”

As Election Day approaches, the New York Times has passionately defended New York City’s socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, changing the subject to accusations of “Islamophobia” when one of his opponents (either former Democrat Gov. Andrew Cuomo, or Republican Curtis Sliwa) dares to bring up Mamdani’s history of hostility toward Israel and abject failure to condemn the terrorist group Hamas, and his membership in the Democratic Socialists of America, an anti-Semitic organization.

They’re openly campaigning for the socialist. Late on Tuesday morning, Times reporters Matthew Haag and Dana Rubinstein posted “Attacking Mamdani’s Muslim faith, Cuomo has played to voters’ fears”.

Often the Mamdani cheerleading appeared high in the headline deck, as in Emma Fitzsimmons’ report on Sunday: “Vance Criticizes Mamdani’s Comments About Islamophobia After 9/11 — Zohran Mamdani said the vice president’s attack on social media was one in a series of “cheap jokes about Islamophobia.” Opponents “pounced”!

As the European Union debates new measures and sanctions in response to conflicts abroad—particularly in the Middle East—a quieter, unresolved question lingers much closer to home. For more than half a century, the Republic of Cyprus, a full member of the European Union, has lived divided. The northern part of the island has remained under Turkish military control since 1974, when Turkey invaded following a coup supported by the Greek junta. That invasion resulted in the continuing occupation of the northern part of the Republic of Cyprus, a situation that has endured for fifty years on European soil.

In recent months, several voices within Europe have called for sanctions against Israel over its military operations in Gaza, citing international law and humanitarian concerns. Whether one supports those calls or not, the debate itself demonstrates the Union’s readiness to contemplate punitive action against a third country for what it deems violations of international law. Yet when the same logic would apply to Turkey’s occupation of Cyprus, a fellow EU member state, the political will to act evaporates.

Since 1974, the island of Cyprus has remained partitioned. Tens of thousands of Turkish troops are still stationed in the north, and a self-declared ‘Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus’ persists without international recognition. Successive rounds of United Nations–sponsored negotiations have failed to deliver reunification. The result is a de facto occupation that has lasted longer than the Cold War itself on European territory, under UN supervision, and within a Union that prides itself on upholding law and justice.

Yet this reality rarely features in European debates about international law or foreign policy.

A young “German” is on trial in Lower Bavaria for attempting to murder his 3-year-old daughter with rat poison in order to avoid paying child support for her. The misguided youth accused of the crime was born in Afghanistan, and later made his way to Europe to enrich Germany with his vibrant diversity.

The catechism taught to Westerners about third-world immigrants asserts that the new arrivals may wear outlandish costumes and observe quaint customs, but underneath they are just like us. Stories like this one should put paid to such notions once and for all: they are fundamentally different from native Europeans and people of European descent.

A heavily Jewish suburb of Chicago has condemned antisemitism after an investigation confirmed reports that a group of Jewish children were attacked with pellet guns and subjected to antisemitic rhetoric in a public park earlier this month.

The incident took place on Oct. 7, the first day of the Jewish holiday of Sukkot and the second anniversary of the Hamas attack on Israel, in Shawnee Park, which is located blocks from a number of the town’s Orthodox synagogues.

It occurred when five children between the ages of 8 and 13, were approached by another group of children who asked if they were Jewish, according to the Chicago Jewish Alliance, an advocacy group that has taken an aggressive stance against antisemitism in Chicagoland.

When the children replied that they were Jewish, the group of roughly 20 assailants, who were between the ages of 12 and 14, then allegedly shouted “f—k Israel” and “you are baby killers so we are going to kill you” at the children and shot gel gun pellets from a recreational gun at them, according to a Facebook post by Daniel and Robyn Burgher Ackerman, the parents of a 13-year-old girl who was among the victims.

An asylum seeker has been convicted of murdering the hotel worker Rhiannon Skye Whyte in Walsall last year.

Deng Chol Majek, from Sudan, stabbed Whyte 23 times with a screwdriver in a “vicious and frenzied” attack on a deserted railway station platform last October.

Majek was convicted by a unanimous jury after what was described during his trial as a “laughable” defence in the face of overwhelming CCTV evidence.
