The number of Catholics in Austria is falling sharply, while its Muslim population continues to grow. By 2024, Catholics in the population numbered 4.56 million with 71,531 leaving the church that year, compared to just over 5,000 joining or returning.

In contrast, by 2021 the total Muslim population was observed to have reached approximately 700,000. Although smaller than the Catholic community, its rapid rate of growth shows a shift in Austria’s religious composition.

The state also collects less data on religion than before, relying now on voluntary surveys rather than mandatory census questions—reflecting a changing relationship between church and society.

This shift is most readily apparent in Vienna’s classrooms, where young Muslims make up the largest religious group.

On the heels of the UK recognizing an Islamic terrorist state in Israel, police arrested the third known person for criticizing Hamas and released a Muslim man who had gone on a stabbing spree after he saw a Koran being burned. Or as the judge in the case put it, “the holy Koran.”

Who is the Koran holy to? The political and judicial systems of the United Kingdom which have effectively enacted Islamic Sharia blasphemy law by selectively prosecuting those who offend Islam. But not those who offend the religious sensibilities of Christians or Jews. Do whatever you like with a cross or a bible, but touch a Koran and you’re not only under arrest.

You’re also fair game for a stabbing.

In Dortmund, seven men have acknowledged paternity for a total of 122 children—despite not being their biological fathers. This recognition grants foreign mothers the right to reside in Germany, while the men often receive financial compensation and the state covers child support costs. Investigations are ongoing in several cases.

The incentive for this practice lies in the current legal framework, Apollo News explains: when a German citizen acknowledges paternity of a child born to a foreign mother, the child automatically gains German citizenship, which in turn grants the mother a residence permit. Authorities in North Rhine-Westphalia report that men often receive thousands of euros for such acknowledgments, while they typically do not pay maintenance—costs that are instead covered by the state.

This loophole exists because, since the 1997 reform of children’s rights, paternity can be recognised without judicial review, even before the child’s birth.

Pro-Palestinian protesters took to the streets across Spain and Italy over the weekend, with clashes erupting between protesters and police in multiple cities. In Barcelona, eight people were arrested and 20 officers injured after demonstrators vandalised shops they claimed were linked to Israel, according to police.

Tens of thousands also protested in Madrid and other Spanish cities, as well as in Rome and Lisbon, in response to Israel stopping the Global Sumud Flotilla—a multinational convoy directly funded and coordinated by the terrorist group Hamas.

Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares said that out of the 49 Spaniards detained by Israeli forces on the flotilla, 21 would return to Spain from Tel Aviv on Sunday, October 5th.

In Rome, the fourth consecutive day of protests saw hundreds of thousands march past the Colosseum, while police estimated the crowd at 250,000. The demonstrations included anti-Israeli chants and at least one banner praising Hamas’ October 7th terrorist attack, where the terrorist group killed over 1,200 people and and took 251 hostage.

Towards the end of the march, around 200 protesters clashed with officers near the St. Mary Major basilica. Police used tear gas and water cannons, detaining 12 suspects and recording the identities of 262 others.

After the statue of Pope John Paul II outside the main train station in Rome was defaced by graffiti, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni condemned the protesters, saying: “They say they are taking to the streets for peace, but then they insult the memory of a man who was a true defender and builder of peace. A shameful act committed by people blinded by ideology.”

Roger L. Simon says pretty much what I’ve been thinking about the current Middle East deal, so I’ll just quote him:

Breaking for the whole world today is the news that Hamas is agreeing to some of President Trump’s 20-point proposal to end the Gaza War, most notably the release of all hostages, living and dead.

Does this mean genuine peace or a hudna?

That is indeed the question.

The October 7 perpetrators recorded themselves and their victims, reveling in their savagery as they murdered 1,195 people in the most gruesome ways. It was a day of infanticide, beheading, incineration, hostage-taking, and of course rape. Not just random and intermittent rape, but gang rape, communal rape – carefully-planned, procedural, strategic rape. This dimension of October 7 has its own academic-diplomatic term: conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV).

The Dinah Project has documented Hamas’ “systematic and intentional usage of sexual violence as a weapon of war” on October 7 in a report that shows how the “complexity and modus operandi of the attacks, which seem to have occurred over three cumulative waves appear to demonstrate a significant level of planning, coordination and detailed prior knowledge of the targets selected.”

On October 7, Gazans killed children in front of their parents and parents in front of their children. To further traumatize the children, they slaughtered scores, perhaps hundreds, of pet dogs.

Everything about the day was planned for maximum cruelty. No analogues in modern history exist.

So, let’s have no more euphemisms like “the tragedy of October 7” or “the events of October 7.” Let’s dispense with the quotidian nouns and modifiers. There was nothing common about October 7. Let the date alone designate the day of infamy.

Call it simply October 7.

Four ‘pro-Gaza’ activists threw red paint on the German Federal Foreign Office building in Berlin, on Thursday, October 2nd, smearing the facade and ground with slogans and what looked like fake blood. Police arrested all four, plus another person who tried to interfere in the arrest.

Soon after, more pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered outside the building, chanting “Free Gaza” and other slogans. They declared support for the Global Sumud Flotilla, which Greta Thunberg had joined before it was intercepted by the Israeli Navy.

The incident came just days after a large pro-Palestinian protest in Berlin with around 60,000 participants, where some demonstrators shouted antisemitic slogans.

Hamas said Friday that it has accepted some elements of President Donald Trump’s plan to end the war in the Gaza Strip, including giving up power and releasing all remaining hostages, but that others require further consultations among Palestinians.

The statement came hours after Trump said that Hamas must agree to the deal by Sunday evening, threatening an even greater military onslaught nearly two years into the war sparked by the Oct. 7, 2023, attack into Israel. It was unclear how the U.S. and Israel would respond to partial acceptance.

Trump appears keen to deliver on pledges to end the war and return dozens of hostages ahead of the second anniversary of the attack on Tuesday. His peace plan has been accepted by Israel and welcomed internationally, but key mediators Egypt and Qatar have said some elements need further negotiation, without elaborating.

Jihad Al-Shamie, the Syrian-born British citizen who police say attacked a synagogue in England on Thursday, resulting in the deaths of two worshippers, was out on bail on suspicion of rape at the time, according to reports.

Authorities had said that Al-Shamie was not known to them before his terror attack on the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in Manchester despite being investigated in connection with an alleged rape earlier this year.

Al-Shamie was fatally shot by police after plowing his vehicle into a crowd of worshippers on Yom Kippur — the holiest day of the Jewish year — and stabbing them.

The Telegraph (UK).

A day after Jihad al-Shamie had driven his car at speed at Jewish worshippers and then stabbed at them in a frenzied, murderous assault, his father posted on Facebook a short statement expressing his “profound shock”.

In a 124-word statement, Faraj al-Shamie said he and his family “strongly condemns this heinous act, which targeted peaceful, innocent civilians”. It was a show of contrition seemingly fitting of a Syrian-born doctor who has spent years working overseas as a trauma surgeon, often in hostile environments.

Except that on Oct 7 2023, in the hours after Hamas terrorists stormed Israel and slaughtered almost 1,200 people and took 250 civilians and soldiers hostage, the father appeared to show not a shred of humanity for the Jewish victims of that atrocity.

On the same Facebook page where he said how sorry he was about the Manchester attack, he had posted, some two years earlier, praise for the Hamas fighters, describing them as “Allah’s men on earth”.

He didn’t stop there. The armed militants who had infiltrated the Jewish state on motorbikes and paragliders had “proved beyond a shadow of a doubt” that Israel would eventually be destroyed, he went on.

As long as Islam exists, ‘jihadis’ will be a problem. It’s been that way for 1400 years, and there is no indication that it will change. Whether our Ruling Class will continue prating how ‘peaceful’ Muslims are while ignoring the mass murder, or whether they will wake up and decide to do something about it, is an exercise left for the reader. 

Daily Record (UK).

The incident unfolded outside Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. Authorities believe Al-Shamie drove his car into worshippers before exiting the vehicle and launching a knife attack. Two men were killed and three others injured.

Officers initially reported that the attacker appeared to be wearing an explosive vest, but later confirmed it was a non-viable device, reports the Mirror. Now more details of Al-Shamie have emerged, here is what we know so far.

According to the PA news agency, Al-Shamie was a British citizen of Syrian descent. He arrived in the UK as a young child and was granted citizenship in 2006. Security services confirmed his name had not previously appeared in police or intelligence databases, and he had not been referred to the government’s Prevent anti-radicalisation programme.

A Michigan youth center Friday hosted a memorial service mourning the “martyrdom” of terrorist leader Hassan Nasrallah.

The event featured local Islamic leader Usama AbdulGhani, a resident scholar and spiritual leader at a K-5 school, who praised Nasrallah’s “bravery” and “divine resistance”—a resistance he said is now led by Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

Nasrallah, the long-term leader of Hezbollah, an officially designated U.S. terrorist organization, was killed in an Israeli airstrike in 2024 after spending decades on Israel’s kill list for his involvement in numerous deadly attacks.

The event, held at the Hadi Youth Community Center in Dearborn, Michigan, commemorated the one-year anniversary of Nasrallah’s death and urged prayers for the “ultimate victory of the Resistance.”

Imagine how peaceful the world would be if the Religion of Peace didn’t exist.

In yet another development which will certainly complicate current Trump administration efforts to find peace in Gaza, the National Security Committee in the Israeli Knesset is advancing a bill to impose the death penalty on Palestinian prisoners detained for killing Israelis.

Killings which are deemed motivated by “racism or hostility to the public” or aimed at harming the “State of Israel” or seeking to thwart the “revival of the Jewish people” would be a capital offensive, according to the legislation. Interestingly, the wording highlights Jewish citizens of Israel are the priority – and not for example Christian, Muslim, or Druze citizens.

It has unleashed immediate controversy both within and outside of Israel. For starters, some Israeli officials as well as families of Oct.7 victims fear that this puts the remaining hostages in Gaza at immediate risk. Notably, the bill does not apply the opposite direction – that is, it would not apply to Israelis who kill Palestinians.

Well, considering that ‘Palestinians’ kill Jews just for being Jews….

This past week, Canada, the UK and Australia have formally recognised the State of Palestine. There is now a decent possibility that the declaration of Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank is likely to follow. Hamas is now further from agreeing to a deal than ever, as they are rewarded for 7th October and riding high in Palestinian polling. Peace in the Middle East looks further away than ever, thanks to this foolish and premature move.

There is more to it, though. How did these three countries align and synchronise in this manner?

An influential progressive think tank, aligned with Qatar’s agenda, has been quietly orchestrating a significant shift in Western policy towards Israel and Palestine. The Center for American Progress (CAP), a Washington, D.C.–based NGO described by critics as a “pro-Qatar” organisation, has used its global network to encourage allied governments to recognise a Palestinian state and adopt more hardline positions against Israel.

In Amsterdam Nieuw-West, a 24-year-old man with an intellectual disability was assaulted and robbed during the night by two Arabic-speaking youths. The attack took place between Tuesday night and Wednesday morning in a park near Pieter Calandlaan, local AT5 reported.

According to police, the victim was first approached around 11 p.m. in the park. Armed with knives, the attackers forced him to hand over his phone, ID card, and PIN, and even compelled him to increase the spending limit on his account. He was beaten and intimidated throughout the night.

The abuse escalated further: the suspects compelled the victim to lie among stones near a skate park, holding him there until daylight. At one point, a passerby confronted the pair and asked what they were doing. Police noted that the youths reacted casually, after which the man walked away. The victim remained trapped until morning.

activist class in the West either have no knowledge of — or choose to forget — one of the bloodiest internal conflicts in the modern Arab world: Algeria’s war against the Islamic Salvation Front (FIS), an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood. After the FIS won the first round of parliamentary elections in 1991, the Algerian military intervened. What followed was a decade-long civil war — Algeria’s “Black Decade” – that left more than 200,000 people dead, many of them civilians.

This was not a remote or tidy struggle. It was marked by massacres of entire villages such as Rais, Bentalha and Sidi Hamed, where men, women and children were slaughtered. Armed Islamist factions used children as human shields. The state responded with mass arrests, secret detention camps, torture and widespread disappearances. Human rights groups estimate that 7,000–20,000 Algerians simply vanished after being picked up by the security services. It was a conflict of unrelenting terror that scarred Algerian society for a generation.

This was not an isolated episode in the Arab world. Across the Middle East and North Africa, — secular Arab governments — have repeatedly been forced to crack down on the Muslim Brotherhood when it has threatened to seize state power. Egypt, Syria, Jordan, the Persian Gulf states (except Qatar), and of course Algeria have all confronted the movement. In each case, the lesson has been the same: when the Brotherhood is allowed to operate unchecked, the consequences are catastrophic for civil society, women, minorities and political pluralism.

Fifteen of the European Union’s 27 member states—around 55%—have now publicly recognised the imaginary state of Palestine. So has the United Kingdom. These European leaders are openly rewarding the Islamist terrorists of Hamas for their genocidal war against Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East and the only Jewish state on earth.

No wonder Hamas hailed the recent wave of recognitions as a “victory” for its “just cause.” That cause is not the West’s dreamed-of two-state-solution; Hamas supports no such thing. Its avowed cause is a jihad to wipe the Israeli state off the map altogether and drive the Jews into the Mediterranean—the real meaning of the “From the river to the sea” chant so beloved by the Islamo-left in the West.

The only ‘justice’ Hamas seeks for Israelis is the sort of summary executions it handed down on October 7th, the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust that the Islamist death cult has vowed to repeat “again and again” if it survives the war in Gaza.

One year after its war with Israel, Iran’s terror proxy Hezbollah is clinging to its finances even as pressure mounts to dismantle its militia and choke off its funding networks.

The killing of longtime leader Hassan Nasrallah in an Israeli strike on September 27th last year dealt a heavy blow to the group’s leadership. Yet under his successor Naim Qassem, Hezbollah has so far kept its command structure intact—thanks largely to continued cash infusions from Iran.

U.S. envoy Tom Barrack revealed the terror organisation has been raking in “$60 million a month” since a November ceasefire. Fighters themselves admit the money is still flowing: AFP spoke to several Hezbollah members who confirmed the group has not missed a single payment.

On July 14 at 6:15AM, armed members of the Syrian Security Directorate surrounded the Saraya family home in the predominantly Druze province of Sweida. They began shooting wildly into the house where the large Saraya family members were sleeping including the Saraya brothers, husbands, mothers and wives lived. They were “security forces”— violent jihadists inducted into the armed forces of newly installed President al-Shara, himself a long-time leader of radical Islamic terrorist group who once had a $10 million dollar U.S. bounty on his head for the murder of thousands of innocent civilians including Americans.

In the home at the time was 35-year-old Hussam Saraya, an American from Oklahoma who had returned to Sweida to help his brothers and sister take care of their father, whose health was in serious decline. The security forces dragged the 8 men living on the second floor and handcuffed and blindfolded them. They were led up the street to Tishreen Square where they were machine gunned to death in a horrific manner, captured on video that went viral on social media.

I have been interviewing leaders of the Syrian Druze as well as other religious minorities for the past 5 months who have been subjected to violent mass murder that reached a total of 3,000 Druze in a 7-day period in mid-July. The total number of minorities killed by al-Shara’s forces since taking power is now at least 10,000. They were deliberately slaughtered one by one in what can only be categorized as a true genocide, one that the mainstream media has largely ignored.

Islamic State has issued a fresh call for terror attacks across Britain, the United States, Europe, and beyond, urging followers to target Christians, Jews, and their “allies” in what it calls revenge for Israel’s ongoing offensive in Gaza.

In an online message titled O Zealous Monotheists, ISIS spokesman Abu Hudhaifa al-Ansari told supporters to “chase your prey… in the streets and roads of precious America, Europe, and the world. Break into their homes, kill them, and punish them by any means you can.”

The statement, circulated on extremist channels, detailed methods including bombings, shootings, stabbings, and vehicle attacks, saying militants should “perfect the plans and diversify the operations” to “avenge Muslims in Palestine, Iraq, Syria, and all Muslim lands.”

The call comes as Israeli forces intensify their ground assault on Gaza City, where hundreds of thousands of civilians remain trapped amid severe shortages of food and medicine. Israel launched the operation after the 7 October 2023 Hamas attack that killed around 1,200 people and saw more than 250 taken hostage.

On Wednesday, the Israel Defense Forces said it had hit over 150 targets in Gaza in two days, insisting its military campaign aims to dismantle Hamas and free remaining hostages.

British authorities have not yet commented publicly on the ISIS statement, which echoes previous calls by the group to inspire so-called lone-wolf attacks across Western cities.

Most readers are aware that I live in a remote rural area of the Central Virginia Piedmont. Unfortunately, dwelling in a Southern backwater does not guarantee remoteness from the encroachments of Islam: as I reported almost twenty years ago, the devout Muslims of Jamaat ul-Fuqra in Red House, Charlotte County, are just a hop, skip, and a jump away from me.

Islam has been making itself known in Farmville, too, which is also close to me, in Prince Edward County, next door to Charlotte County.

A new report outlines the financial, operational and personnel ties that the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) has maintained with Hamas.

On Wednesday, September 17, Hillel Neuer—Executive Director of UN Watch—declared:

Years of inadequate oversight have allowed Hamas to radicalize an entire generation of Palestinian youth in UNRWA schools in Gaza.

Neuer also criticized what he called UNRWA’s ongoing “infantilization of the Palestinian people,” which deepens political dependency, fuels discontent, and prevents genuine self-government and long-term stability. He emphasized that its current structure undermines the path to lasting peace.

In January, Israel banned the agency from operating in Gaza and the West Bank. Despite the ban, the organization said it is still “trying to support the people of Gaza, but the ongoing Israeli attacks have made this virtually impossible.”

Previously, the UN even argued that UNRWA employees involved in the Hamas-led October 7 pogrom should be immune from prosecution. Despite this, UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini believes that the shuttered schools pose the real danger:

Israeli forces have destroyed or damaged a large number of the schools and educational institutions in Gaza.

Meanwhile the European Commission—like Hamas host Qatar—continues to disburse generous financial assistance to Islamist-adjacent causes, including UNRWA.

In 2023, Mohammed made its appearance on the list of the top 10 most popular names for boys in New York City. Anyone paying attention to this seemingly minor statistic could have predicted the emergence of Zohran Mamdani as the Democrat nominee in the upcoming mayoral election.

Mohammed had appeared as the sixth most common baby among ‘Asians’ in New York City in 2013. By 2017, the name of the genocidal warlord of Islam had become the most common baby name among ‘Asians’ in the city. The rapid growth showed the power of demographics.

Nearly 300 Mohammeds (under various spellings) were born in New York City in 2021 accompanied by over 150 Ahmeds, and dozens of Alis, Omars, Adnans and many others.

The Muslim population of New York City is still undetermined. While Islamist groups claim that there are over 1 million Muslims, they tend to exaggerate to build up their influence, but a Pew survey estimated Muslim settlers as making up 3% of the population of New York City.

Mamdani only won the votes of 5% of the population of New York City. That’s within 2% of the estimated Muslim population of the city. Whatever the actual size of the Muslim population of the city may be, it was more than enough to make the difference in a mayoral primary that few New Yorkers bothered to vote in because they found all the candidates repugnant even while mosques successfully turned out the bloc vote to rig an election for their candidate.

“In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate,” a terrorist declares on the Flight 93 cockpit recording. That’s followed by the sounds of the terrorists assaulting a passenger.

“Please don’t hurt me,” he pleads. “Oh God.”

As the passengers rush the cabin, a Muslim terrorist proclaims, “In the name of Allah.”

As New York firefighters struggle up the South Tower with 100 pounds of equipment on their backs trying to save lives until the very last moment, the Flight 93 passengers push toward the cockpit. The Islamic hijackers call out, “Allahu Akbar.”

Mohammed Atta had advised his fellow terrorists that when the fighting begins, “Shout, ‘Allahu Akbar,’ because this strikes fear in the hearts of the non-believers.” He quoted the Koran’s command that Muslim holy warriors terrorize non-believers by beheading them and urged them to follow Mohammed’s approach, “Take prisoners and kill them.”

The 9/11 ringleader quoted the Koran again. “No prophet should have prisoners until he has soaked the land with blood.”

On Flight 93, the fighting goes on. “Oh Allah. Oh the most Gracious,” the Islamic terrorists cry out. “Trust in Allah,” they reassure. And then there are only the chants of, “Allahu Akbar” as the plane goes down in a Pennsylvania field leaving behind another blood-soaked territory in the Islamic invasion of America.

Today that field is marked by the “Crescent of Embrace” memorial.

A Jewish tourist couple have been assaulted by a group of 10 migrants in the latest in a series of anti-Semitic attacks in Europe.

The American and Israeli pair were surrounded by the North African men shortly before midnight on Strada Nuova, one of the main shopping thoroughfares near the Rialto Bridge in the northern Italian city.

The couple, wearing Orthodox clothing, tried to flee but were chased and surrounded by the group, who chanted “Free Palestine”

One then set his unmuzzled rottweiler on the tourists, while another slapped the man and a glass bottle was thrown, shattering and injuring the woman’s ankle.

Officers from the Guardia di Finanza, Italy’s financial crimes unit, saw the attack and intervened.

The ultimate in status differentiation is the slave relationship. The slave has no agency, while the slave-owner has full agency for two. Leaving aside the special case of contract slavery, the general point about enslavement is that it reduces human freedom to the point where only death can exceed it in terms of general freedom reduction.

The anti-slavery movement is one of the very, very few good causes which the sane majority in civilised countries almost unanimously supports. The mystery for most people is that we are told the worst slavers were the Europeans who transported slaves from Africa to America for three hundred years when in fact slavery in the Islamic world has lasted since the time of the Prophet, which was fourteen hundred years ago. Over the piece, many more people were enslaved by Arabs and Turks than by Europeans. So why have we heard so little about Islamic slaving?

I cannot answer that question, but I can point to an excellent book which tells the story: Captives and Companions: a History of Slavery and the Slave Trade in the Islamic World, by Justin Marozzi. Published in July this year, it could hardly be more up to date. The author is an experienced Islamologist and traveller in Arab lands. Marozzi’s base is the University of Buckingham where he is “Senior Research Fellow in Journalism and the Popular Understanding of History.” For myself, I never knew that there was any significant popular understanding of history—otherwise how could the slavery issue have become so distorted in the public mind?

I have to laugh every time I see a black person with an Arabic name.

When a High Court judge wishes a convicted terrorist “all the best,” something has gone badly wrong in our legal system.

Justice Robert Jay made the remarks when approving the release of Haroon Aswat, the al-Qaeda terrorist who, in 2015, was sentenced to 20 years in prison in the U.S. for setting up a terrorist training camp. He was deported to the UK, his country of birth, in 2022 and has been detained under the Mental Health Act ever since. During his hearing prior to his release this week, Justice Jay appeared to sympathise with Aswat, saying, “It could not have been too pleasant being in American custody all that time.” He then advised Aswat that “the way forward is to keep on your medication, listen to the advice you are going to get, and keep out of the sort of things you were doing.”

The “sort of things” Aswat has been doing is assisting literal terrorists.
