While Twitter allowed the rapper Wiley to post his antisemitic rants, and only banned him from the platform after a widespread boycott of Twitter was underway, it has been consistently solicitous of another, much more dangerous antisemite, the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The story is here. A Twitter official on Wednesday informed […]

Italian Senate strips Salvini of immunity over alleged migrant ‘kidnapping,’ now he may face kidnapping trial
Former Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini, now a Senator, could be facing a criminal trial for “kidnapping illegal migrants.” This absurd charge stems from “an incident that took place in August 2019, when Salvini was serving as Interior Minister and refused to let 164 migrants disembark from a migrant transport vessel belonging to the […]

UK Cops Consider Dropping Terms ‘Islamist Terror’ and ‘Jihadi’ to Avoid Offending Muslims
My latest in FrontPage: You might have thought that Absurd Britannia couldn’t possibly get any more absurd. You’d have been wrong.

ISIS jihadis who admitted involvement in captivity of aid worker spared death penalty so they can face trial
“A British Supreme Court judgment in March ruled that it was unlawful for the UK to share evidence with Washington without seeking assurances that the pair, accused of beheading Westerners, will not face the death penalty.” What about Kayla Mueller?

Germany: 26% of the population now from “migrant backgrounds,” people of Turkish descent largest group
Erdogan has worked hard for years among this Turkish population to make sure it doesn’t assimilate and become German. In light of that, what will Germany’s future be like? Will Germans submit quietly to becoming a Turkish colony? Probably they will, because they’ve been taught for decades now that any kind of nationalism or love […]
