Sweden: Mother and Child Seriously Injured as Grenade Thrown Into Their Bedroom Window

Once again, Sweden is rocked by gang violence. On Sunday evening, someone threw a hand grenade through the bedroom window of an apartment where a mother and her small daughter lived. The mother is in critical condition, and the child is in serious but stable condition. 

Police believe that the victims were not the intended targets, but that the actual target was a neighbor, and the perpetrator(s) chose the wrong residence.

Neighbors heard screams after the explosion: "Like a horror movie"

A mother and daughter are being treated for severe blast injuries.

According to Aftonbladet's information, a hand grenade is believed to have exploded in their bedroom.

"I tried to help her, but there was nothing I could do," says a shocked neighbor in Tumba.

Around 23:45 on Sunday evening, gang violence came to a leafy townhouse area south of Stockholm.

Police, rescue services, and ambulances were called to a fire in a row of townhouses.

As it turns out, it was caused by an explosion.

"It just happened. I looked out, and it was burning like Hell. I was as shocked as my wife," says neighbor, Sören Tiderman, 81.

Another neighbor stands the next day with an empty stare and looks at where crime scene technicians are working inside the blue and white police tape.

He says that he was first on the scene after the explosion, and he hasn't slept the entire night. Today, he is choosing to stay home from work.

"My children play with their children. Why would anyone want to do that to them ?" the neighbor says, who doesn't want his name and picture used.

The police theory is that the act was not directed at the family, and they were not the actual targets, according to Aftonbladet's information. 

Caption: "It just happened," says  Sören Tiderman, 81.

The residents gather in a small area between the row houses. Now and then, they talk to us journalists.

On the ground, can be seen signs of children's colored asphalt chalk.

The red brick houses consist of both row houses and rowhouse-like multi-family buildings with apartments.

A man who lives in the neighborhood believes that the act was actually directed at him and that he has recently received threats from a criminal network, according to Aftonbladet's sources.

The man was reportedly at home and heard when the explosion went off. Shortly thereafter, he received a message with a bomb emoji, according to sources.

Caption: On Monday, police and technicians were at the scene.

Life threatening injuries

Police technicians have found traces of at least one hand grenade at the scene of the crime, next to a bedroom window. The hand grenade is believed to have detonated inside the bedroom.

The mother is being treated with life-threatening injuries, while the daughter's condition is serious but stable.

"Oh, Lord God, into a family with children. Think if they were lying in their beds," says Mervi, 65.

She murmurs as she talks about the attack. Her little dog, a spotted Aussiedoodle, cuddles against her leg.

"I am still shocked, it feels unsafe that this is creeping so close," Mervi says.

Lara, 20, was also awakened by the chaos after the explosion. Her family lives near the affected family's house.

"I saw when the child was taken in the ambulance. I have played with this child. It is so heartbreaking," she says.

She says that she thinks it has become more unsafe in the area despite the seeming idyllic environment.

In the Tumba area of Storvreten, a short distance away, both murders and explosions have occurred in recent years.

"I don't know if I dare go out and play with my little sister anymore, she is just 10 years old. We have lived here 20 years, and it has always felt safe."

Caption: Cecilia Johansson, 25, and Amanda Pettersson, 27, want to see increased security in the area.

Screaming after the children

Cecilia Johansson, 25, and Amanda Pettersson, 27, were watching a movie when the explosion occurred.

"We went out onto the terrace. We heard really loud screams, it was like in a horror movie. And that there are children involved, that is terrible. They play right here and draw on the asphalt with crayons," says Cecilia Johansson.

Amanda Pettersson wants to see increased security in the area of the row houses.

"After this, we have to keep our eyes open, and we have to set up cameras," she says.

Caption: Marie-Louise Schiller, 83: Called "police" by neighbors .

Marie-Louise Schiller, 83, says that she has already been called "the police" by her neighbors.

Now she thinks she will be more of a police (officer).

" I go out on the steps, and I say, 'Hi, I see you'.  It's for the sake of the children, thinking about narcotics and recruitment," she says.

"I usually knit socks for the children in the courtyard. It is terrible when children are affected, and especially when they are not even involved," says Schiller.

Sweden: Three Dead in Apparent Gang Shooting in Uppsala


Uppsala, Sweden



The bodies just keep piling up in Sweden. Today in the university town of Uppsala, three people were shot to death in the center of the city. A suspected shooter reportedly fled the scene on an electric scooter. He was masked and hooded, so it appears there is no further description.

Swedish State Television (SVT) has learned that one of the victims was involved in a police investigation into a planned attack against a relative of gang leader Ismail Abdo of the Foxtrot Network. Thus, it would appear this is the latest gang-related shooting in Sweden.

The below SVT article is translated by Fousesquawk.

Police confirm: Three dead in shooting in Uppsala

Updated today at 22:15. Posted today at 17:29

Three people have died in a shooting in central Uppsala, police confirm.

One of the people shot to death, according to information provided to SVT, was (involved) in an investigation into the planned attack on a relative of gang leader Ismail Abdo.  

The shooting occurred around 5 pm on Tuesday. Several people reported that they heard loud shots in the area. Police have cordoned off a large area near Vaksala Square.

According to early information provided to SVT, several people have reportedly been killed. Around 7:25 pm, police confirmed that three people have died in the shooting and that the incident is being investigated as murder.

"These three people are not identified, and therefore, relatives have not yet been notified, and we won't give any more information at this time," says police pressperson Maria Hall to SVT News. 

One of the dead persons is a man who was (involved) in an investigation in a planned attack on a relative of gang leader Ismail Abdo, according to information provided to SVT.

May have fled on an electric scooter

Police have initiated a so-called special incident in connection with a violent act. A suspected perpetrator reportedly fled the scene, according to SVT's information. Meanwhile, police are searching the area with canine units and drones.

"There is information that a person left the scene on an electric scooter, but whether it is a witness, a perpetrator, or whether the person even is connected is uncertain. People should come forward with tips if they have information on this," says press spokesperson Maria Hall to SVT.  

Witness: "Heard shots"

SVT has spoken to several witnesses at the scene who say they heard several shots.

"I heard shots, so I immediately understood that it must be a shooting," says Alexander Griedl, who lives near the suspected crime scene.

Minister: A brutal act of violence

Justice Minister Gunnar  Strömmer has commented on the incident and describes it as "extraordinarily serious".

"A brutal act of violence has occurred in central Uppsala. Police have confirmed that three persons have lost their lives. This at the same time as all of Uppsala is beginning the Walpurgis holiday. What has happened is extraordinarily serious".

He says that the Justice Department is in close contact with police and is following the development of the incident closely.

Caption: Alexander Griedl lives just some 50 meters from the suspected scene of the crime.




The Red-Green Alliance? How Long Will it Last?

This article first appeared in New English Review. 

-NY Post


Those of us who have watched the growth of anti-Semitism on our university campuses first-hand have seen how the modern-day brownshirts, in this case, the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, largely Muslim agitators, have been supported by various forces from the radical left. To be more specific, I am referring to anarchists like Antifa, Black Lives Matter, radical leftist academics, and various Marxists. Speaking of Marxists, I also include the National Lawyers Guild, established in the 1930s as a legal arm of the Communist Party USA.  For several years, they have participated in anti-Israel events on campuses, either as speakers or as so-called legal observers, accompanying anti-Israel disruptions and protests around the nation. If you have ever noticed people with lime green baseball caps at anti-Israel protests, that's the National Lawyers Guild, always there to document any improper statements or actions by counter-protesters or police.

The explosion in anti-Semitism on our campuses is due to the well-organized pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel movement that found fertile ground on our campuses and has metastasized into our society at large. When I first got involved with this as a teacher at the University of California at Irvine around 2007, the primary instigators were members of the Muslim Student Union. They were just one of many Muslim Student chapters in universities around the nation, most of which go by the name of the Muslim Student Association. It's the same thing. In addition to the Muslim Student Union/Association chapters, we also have the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), with over 150 chapters, and more recently, Faculty of Justice in Palestine (FJP). Throw in the various Middle East Studies Departments, which are usually propaganda centers for anti-Israel, anti-West indoctrination, and what you have is a toxic cocktail of groups dedicated to helping bring down the state of Israel and the West in general.

It should be noted that SJP and FJP are not exclusively Muslim in membership, though SJP was co-founded by UC Berkeley professor Hatem Bazian, who also co-founded American Muslims for Palestine and various other questionable entities like the Islamophobia Research and Documentation Center, located on the UC Berkeley campus.

Despite the obvious link between Islamists, anti-Israel groups and the non-Muslim, radical left in America (and Canada, and Europe as well), it is shocking that so many would prefer to lay the blame for the rise of anti-Semitism on the right, people like Maga folks, Trump voters, the KKK and neo Nazis. It is undoubtedly true that the KKK and neo-Nazis have a documented history of Jew hatred, but can one seriously claim that they are the main problem today? Just how many Americans do they represent? How often do you see them marching around university campuses? The notable exception was the University of Virginia, Charlottesville episode during President Trump's first administration. That said, it is clear that among non-Muslims, the radical left is a much bigger problem, no matter what the Anti-Defamation League or Islamist apologists (like CAIR) would have you believe. When you look at the disgusting images of pro-Hamas mobs in cities like New York, abusing police officers and on campuses like Columbia, you don't see conservatives and people in Maga caps running amok in keffiyas and waving Palestinian flags, you see radical leftists and Islamists. That is why many call it the Red-Green alliance, the red representing Marxism and the Green representing Islam. 

How can we conquer a problem like anti-Semitism unless we are willing to name its biggest purveyors? Setting aside the age-old Islamic anti-Jewish hatred and its present-day manifestations, who else can be found marching arm in arm with today's Hamas supporters and people who would wipe Israel off the map if they could? It is the radical left. They see Israel as just another facet of fighting against the US and Western civilization-even though it is their country and their civilization, respectively! Israel is arguably America's strongest ally, so it is natural for the far left to side with the Arabs in the Middle East conflict. And since October 7, 2023, the far left in America has reached its lowest point in supporting the monsters who carried out the atrocities of that day, including the inhuman holding of hostages, including some Americans, to this very day!

Coming back to our universities, it is this very segment of society, the radical left, that has as its stronghold the campuses. This also includes, sadly, some Jewish professors and SJP members who have been marching arm-in-arm with the very people who would love to murder every Jew living in Israel. By their fanatical condemnation of Israel, they show themselves to be the total misfits that they are. Tragically, many are standing in classrooms, teaching our children, and using their classrooms as soapboxes to spout their personal political views. 

The question begs: How long will this marriage last? I think it's here for a very long time. What would it take to bring about an end to the marriage? In my view, only if Israel falls to the Palestinians, if the West collapses, and Islam actually realizes its dream of a worldwide caliphate under sharia law ( a very hypothetical scenario). That is to say that once the Red useful idiots are no longer useful to the Green, the Red will be faced with a choice: Either they become Green or suffer the consequences.

Liberation Day in Italy Has Been Hijacked by the Pro-Hamas Mob

-Corriere della Sera


April 25 is considered Liberation Day in Italy following World War 2, and today is the 80th anniversary of these celebrations. Unfortunately, the day has now been taken over by far-left agitators and those supporting Hamas. 

The blow article from Il Giornale condemns the actions of the protesters and is translated by Fousesqauwk.


This is how antagonists and Pro Pal killed April 25

With the silence of the left, today's festival has lost every connotation of true freedom

Alberto Giannoni, 25 April 2025 at 13:45

To call it extremism is a compliment. Only an ideological perversion could lead to- in the name of anti-fascism-.attacking demonstrators who took to the (streets) with European flags.

It happened yesterday in Turin, and the script is destined to repeat itself in Milan with the announced protest-aggression against representatives of the Jewish community and that of Ukraine (that is, against the people who today in Europe embody a true, heroic resistance against an invader, Putin).

Meanwhile, in Rome this morning, a Hamas flag was waved. Some Italian "Pro-Pal" activists, as soon as the presidio moved toward Piramide-under the wall of Porta San Paolo, to lay a wreath of flowers, began to wave the flag of the Islamist terror organization, a green banner with Arabic writing in white. Then other demonstrators (who were) present demanded that the hotheads take it down, and after a heated discussion, they succeeded. Finally, when the scuffles calmed down, the demonstrators left in a procession toward Spizzichino Bridge. 

Protests against the Jewish Brigade, meanwhile, have also been reported in Cinisello Balsamo (Milan) and in Parma, where a group that was commemorating the Zionist formation-among the organizers was also an Iranian dissident- was surrounded by "Pro-Pal" and forced to leave the procession.

From Milan to Rome, to a myriad of other events is a bulletin of intolerance, of hate, and violent sectarianism. These fringes of fanatics are dominating the (streets) with the goal of transforming even the celebrations of liberation into the usual delirious demonstrations that sing the praises of Hamas and now invoke the "peace" of Putin.

And what does the official left do? Those moderate(s) turn the other way, take refuge in rhetoric, and pretend not to see, while groups, large and small, collectives, and unions cover up these threats and these attacks with lies and silence. And then they wonder why (so many Italians) stay away from this delirium.

April 25th would not be so divisive if it had not ended up in the hands of violent gangs and tolerated by most.

It is they, the violent ones, who are killing the best and most authentic spirit of this day, using a day of celebration for all to put in place an obscene representation of political and ethnic hate. And the cowardly left, which in words, cares a lot about April 25 but does nothing to defend it, is the first victim.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, we have one paragraph in today's Corriere della Sera, describing the events in Milan, which is quite pertinent. Surviving members of the Jewish Brigade, volunteers who came from the British Mandate of Palestine to fight against the Germans in northern Italy in 1944 and 1945 under the British army, were harassed by the pro-Hamas protesters and had to march under police escort. What a disgrace!


Security cordon around the Jewish Brigade


The Jewish Brigade section in the April 25 procession, is now marching protected by a police security cordon. Several people on the sides of the road are booing them, telling them to leave the demonstration: " Criminals, you are committing a genocide", can be heard shouted. From the Jewish Brigade, they respond waving posters on which is written: "Resistance to terror", Resistance to radicalism", and "Resistance to the use of human shields".

More Academic Nonsense at UC Santa Cruz


"This talk explores why and how it is imperative to center Palestine and an anti-Zionist commitment within teacher education through lenses like FaithCrit and humanizing pedagogies."

-UC Santa Cruz Events Page /Education Department announcement



I am cross-posting an article by Tammi Rossman-Benjamin, retired professor at UC Santa Cruz and co-founder of the Amcha Initiative, an organization dedicated to exposing and fighting anti-Semitism in our universities.

Tammi's article concerns an announcement last January by the Education Department UC Santa Cruz of an event dedicated to the idea that early childhood education should focus on instilling in small schoolchildren a bias against the state of Israel. This event was scheduled on January 22, 2025 and featured somebody named "Dr Lilly Padila" as the speaker. I suspect UCSC got the name wrong because I can't find that name anywhere, but there is an Asst Professor  Lily Padia who teaches racial linguistic justice at the Erikson Institute in Chicago. Based on the bio, this appears to be the same one, and apologies if I'm wrong.

This is just another example of why years ago, I labeled UC Santa Cruz as "America's wackiest university".  In addition to all the anti-Semitic aspects of this "academic theme", I would ask just why is it so important for elementary school kids in California or anywhere in the US to be taught that Israel and Zionism are so evil? Why not teach the kiddies about what is happening in the Sudan? How about the India-Pakistan conflict over Kashmir? How about the Cypress conflict between Turkey and Greece?

Shouldn't they be learning to read and write, and start learning about the history of our own country? 



If our radical leftist "educators" in California want elementary school kids to be inundated with the Israel-Palestinian conflict, why not give them instruction on what Hamas did on October 7, 2023?

The obvious answer is that it was so horrific, it would cause our children to have nightmares and possibly even be damaged as they grow up.





Sign Petition Against California AB 101

I am cross-posting a message from my friend and colleague, Tammi Rossman-Benjamin of the Amcha Initiative regarding California's Assembly Bill 101 regarding mandated Ethnic Studies. The link comes with a request to add our name to a petition to the California State Legislature to repeal this bill. Though the bill has been passed, it still requires funding to implement it.

I won't repeat all that is in Tammi's letter, but suffice to say I share her concerns about how it will contribute to an increase in anti-Semitism in our schools. It seems to me that this will open the barn door for activist teachers to present the material in any way they choose, including inserting all the anti-Israel material they want, representing Jews as all being "privileged white Zionists supporting Israel's 'genocide'against Palestinians, etc.)  

The letter can be accessed here. I assume you must be a California resident to sign it. I have done so.

Sweden: Koran Rioters Sentenced



Three years ago, Sweden was rocked by riots in response to Danish activist Rasmus Paludan's burning of Korans in public places. This week, a court in Malmö handed down sentences to 39 perpetrators. The sentences were mild; 26 adults received sentences ranging from 2 months to 5 years and 6 months, while 13 minors received no prison time. The headline below is misleading.  A total of 26 adults received a total of 53 years.  There is no mention of deportation of any non-Swedish citizens.

The article below from Nya Dagbladet is translated by Fousesquawk.


53 years for Koran rioters in Malmö

Islamization in Europe

Posted 16 April 2025

-By Markus Andersson

Caption: Events during the Koran riots have been described as something out of a war zone.

Altogether, 39 persons have been convicted for, among other things, arson, violence against civil service workers, and aggravated sabotage against emergency activities during the Koran riots in  Malmö three years ago. A third of the perpetrators, however, are underage and have, therefore, avoided prison sentences.

Exactly like several other Swedish cities, violent and widespread riots occurred three years ago after the Danish politician and Islam critic, Rasmus Paludan, publicly burned Korans in connection with the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan.

Enraged immigrant gangs attacked police with rocks and firebombs and set police and rescue vehicles on fire-and the events were afterward described by witnesses as scenes from a war.

"Some police have described the riots as like being in a war zone. It is simply an unheard-of stroke of luck that determined that no police were seriously injured in the events in Malmö," says Victoria Ingered, one of the prosecutors who led the preliminary investigations after the Easter riots in Malmö.

"Enormous puzzle"

Just in Malmö, hundreds of people are thought to be involved in the riots, but through the police's own documentation, as well as images and video clips sent in by the public, some 40 have been able to be identified. Investigators have since examined hundreds of hours of material to be able to prove who is guilty of which crime.

"Every suspected individual has been followed from when he arrived at the location to the time he left. In some cases, that has been several hours. Each single act, for example, a rock thrown, has been documented, both on film and detailed film memos, Ingered explains and continues: 

"It has been an enormous puzzle, and film examination has been absolutely vital in convicting suspects for aggravated sabotage against emergency activities.

13 avoid prison sentences

The investigation is described as very "resource-demanding" for both police and prosecution, but in spite of the low sentences in many cases, it is thought that "good results with convictions have been achieved in all respects." 

Of the 39 convicted in Malmö, 13 were minors and received no prison sentences-instead were given punishment of youth service, supervised or custodial juvenile care. 

The other 126 are adults and have been sentenced to prison from 2 months to 5 years and 6 months. The average prison sentence is between 2 and 3 years. In all of Sweden at least 300 police officers and 14 civilians were injured during the riots, and hundreds of perpetrators have been convicted throughout Sweden for participating.

The Muslim Brotherhood in France (11)

This is the latest in our series of translations of European articles regarding the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) in Europe, and the 11th such article on France. It appears as an insert in the French blog posting dated today from Riposte Laique. It reports that the Ministry of Interior is planning to release a sensitive report on the activities of the MB in France. The insert in the posting appears below. The translation is by Fousesquawk.

The shocking inside story of the Muslim Brotherhood in France

An "absolutely alarming document on the goals of the Muslim Brotherhood" will be declassified and unveiled "within the coming weeks", the Minister of Interior, Bruno Retailleau (pictured opposite), announced. According to our investigations, this confidential and unedited report, based on the research of Ambassador Francois Gouyette and Prefect Pascal Courtade, is in the process of being redacted due to its sensitivity. "We can't say everything," confides a security source, "but the French people have to know the scope of the danger".  The structure, the objectives, the methods, and the finances of the Islamist nebula are described. "There are names (and) persons identified," indicates the entourage of the Minister, who evoke a "small, tight pyramid" at its top and enlarged at its base operating across a galaxy of sporting, religious, and cultural associations. In total, there are 130-140 religious sites and about 20 endowment funds "affiliated" with the Muslim Brotherhood. Political patronage, especially local, is already being scrutinized by the prefects, who will be "vigilant" during the municipal elections. The Brotherhood is "a menace that extends silently in a pernicious and subversive manner," Place Beauveau (Ministry of Interior) states. Its purpose is "to cause the fall of all society under sharia (law)." Bruno Retailleau also doesn't hesitate to evoke the danger with his European counterparts, as with recently, the United Kingdom (UK), regarding his primary concerns. There is a naivety in the West, a security source laments.  In the wake of all this, the Minister of Interior will announce a plan to combat the infiltration of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Coachella Music Festival: Shame

Coachella Music Festival, April 19, 2025
Member of Kneecap band
-Jewish Telegraphic Agency 



“It is being enabled by the US who arm and fund Israel despite their war crimes,” the message continued. “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.”

On April 19, some Irish band I never heard of called Kneecap performed at the Coachella Music Festival in California. During their performance, several messages appeared on the stage directed against Israel, including, "F--k Israel" and " Free Palestine". There was also a message accusing our own country of enabling Israel.

The Times of Israel has the story here. ( Warning: Graphic language).

Free speech? Sure. Nobody is going to get arrested here. I will exercise my own free speech here and condemn it. How ironic that a music festival in the US attacks the victims of an atrocity that occurred at a music festival (Nova Festival) in Israel on October 7, 2023, the act that started this latest round of fighting between Israel and Hamas. 

Site of Nova Music Festival, Israel, October 7, 2023
-Times of Israel


And how rude is it when you go to another country and publicly attack that country? Yes, it is free speech, but my message to the lads from Ireland is to go back where they came from. And shame on anybody who attends their concerts in our country.



King Charles' Easter Message of Submission




Allow me to preface this by saying that I know that King Charles is battling cancer, and my prayers are for his complete recovery. That said, after reading his Easter message to the British people today, I am more convinced than ever that he is a hopeless boob. Here is the text of his written statement.

Of course, what is raising eyebrows is his irrelevant reference to Islam. I recognize that Charles wants to be "inclusive" on a Christian religious day, and thus, he mentions Islam (and Jews) in the third paragraph. 

At the risk of sounding hypocritical, while I have no problem with the King referencing Jews in his message of peace, I do take issue with the reference to Islam. After all, Britain has no problem with Jews aside from protecting them from Islamists. It does have a severe problem with, let us say, a portion of its Muslim population-the Islamists. Again, as I always do, I want to make it clear I am not criticizing all Muslims in Britain, but it is impossible to overlook the problems, though Charles seems to accomplish the impossible with regularity. The obvious collective issue is Islamic terrorism, Pakistani grooming gangs in the UK, the July 7, 2005 terrorist attack in London that killed 52 people, and the sheer slaughter of British soldier Lee  Rigby in 2013. Throw in characters like Anjem Choudary, and when you add it all up, Charles' reference to Islam comes across as one more example of British submission. We don't even have to get into what is happening to Christians in places around the world, like Nigeria, at the hands of Islamist terrorists. Meanwhile, British activist Tommy Robinson is sitting in a British prison because he dares speak out about Islamism, grooming gangs, and the things I mentioned above. (Choudary is also in prison, not for the hateful and outrageous things he has said, but for promoting terrorism.)

Anjem Choudary (center)


Of course, Charles has to worry about the possibility that someone will burn down Buckingham Palace, which is exactly what Choudary and his disciples (no pun intended) infamously chanted ("Burn burn Buckingham") a few years back. 

Mutual respect and harmony between religions is a good thing, but if King Charles is going to pay tribute to Islam on Easter Sunday, it would be nice to think that the respect was mutual and not a one-way street. Given the reality of the situation today in Britain and the world, Charles' words come across as submission. I'm sure that is exactly how the Anjem Choudarys of the world are interpreting it.

Better just to say, "Happy Easter".

Netherlands: Somali-Dutch Woman Wanted by US for Terrorism

-NOS


Dutch media is reporting that a Somali-Dutch woman named Khadra Essa, aka Umm Qaqa al-Somali, has a $5 million bounty on her head placed by the US Government. She reportedly traveled to Syria to join ISIS in 2014 and allegedly trained a female battalion. She is also reported to have transported two children with US citizenship to an unknown location in Syria. The children's mother was reportedly an ISIS member as well and was reportedly killed after taking the children to Syria in 2015 without the father's permission. 

We have partially translated two separate Dutch news articles. While translating the first article from Telegraaf, we ran into a subscriber block, so we simply translated the last two paragraphs from NOS, which basically gives the rest of the information that is available.

Hopefully, DOS has sent a copy of her photo to Minneapolis. For all we know, she might be there, having traveled from Syria to the US with former President Joe Biden's blessing.

America puts 5 million dollars on the head of Dutch ISIS terrorist, Khadra Essa: Orderer of physical punishment, execution, and murder

By Silvan Schoonhovn

Yesterday 14:25. Updated yesterday 16:38 

The American Ministry for Foreign Affairs (Dept. of State) Rewards for Justice Program has put a maximum of  5 million dollars on the head of the Dutch ISIS terrorist, Khadra Essa. According to the Department, she played an important role as the main instructor in the female terror battalion, Nusaybah Khatibah. 

According to the Department, the Somali-born Dutch national traveled to Syria in 2014, where she joined ISIS. The terror group trained her in the use of weapons, explosives, and suicide operations. She also allegedly recruited new members and called on her fellow believers to carry out suicide attacks, including abroad. Essa led a group that enforced Islamic law with violence against other women. She allegedly carried out corporal punishment and even gave orders for executions and murder.

From NOS (Nl) yesterday at 21:41

In addition, Essa allegedly kidnapped children on several occasions. According to Washington, in 2019, she took brother and sister, Yusuf and Zahra, both of American nationality, to an unknown place in Syria after their mother was killed in an attack on ISIS. Their mother allegedly took the children to Syria in 2015 to join ISIS, without permission from their father.

The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs says they have no knowledge about the reward offered, and at this moment, they are not in contact with the US regarding the matter or the woman.

France: Afghan Goes on Trial for Attempted Murder and Also Admits Rape of 13-year-Old Boy




This week in Paris, a 25-year-old Afghan asylum-seeker, identified only as Zalakahan S., is on trial for attempted murder, an incident that occurred in February 2022 in Paris. The news accounts below are a little tricky to follow, but it appears that the suspect was not immediately identified. Subsequently, in December 2022, the suspect was arrested and charged with raping a 13-year-old boy in the village of Croisilles, in the Pas-de-Calais region of France. As a result of the Paris charges, he was transferred to Paris to stand trial for attempted murder. During the trial, as has been reported this week, the defendant spontaneously admitted to the rape of the boy in Croisilles.

An article in Frontieresmedia  (Fr) is translated by Fousesquawk and can be read here.

A 25-year-old Afghan, in the country illegally, on trial for attempted murder in Paris, admitted during the hearing to having committed another serious crime. He allegedly committed a rape of a 13-year-old boy on a public street in Croisilles, a small municipality in Pas-de-Calais.

The incident goes back to December 24, 2022, in the midst of Christmas Eve. According to the initial elements of the investigation reported at the time by several media, the 13-year-old adolescent was allegedly sexually attacked in the afternoon, near the stadium of Croisilles. The victim managed to escape and find refuge with a resident of the village, who alerted the authorities. The investigation, assigned to the Gendarmerie, quickly led to the arrest of Zalakahan S., already known to police services for prior violent crimes.

The suspect, who was residing in Croisilles at the time, had been kicked out of the municipal Center for Reception and Situation Examination (CAES) in 2020 for having threatened to kill an employee.

Attempted murder in Paris: Another charge

The hearing going on in Paris concerns another affair, which arose in February 2022. Zalakahan S. is accused of trying to stab a tourist in the neck in the capital, an act that led to his transfer from Croiselles and his being charged for attempted murder. During the course of this trial, the accused spontaneously admitted to the rape in Croisilles.

The Public Prosecutor's Office of Arras, informed of the facts of December 2022, opened a judicial investigation for aggravated rape and theft because the victim's mobile phone had also been stolen.

On Friday in Villeurbanne, on the outskirts of Lyon, a Jewish man was attacked by 2 individuals. On Saturday, the prefecture stated that an investigation has been opened after this "anti-Semitic attack". A witness to the scene, the neighbor of the victim, recounts the attack.

A case has been opened after an "anti-Semitic attack" in Villeurbanne, on the outskirts of Lyon, the third in one month, the prefecture stated Saturday. "This anti-Semitic attack is the object of all the attention of the National Police, who have opened an investigation to find the perpetrators of this abject violence," stated the prefecture of Rhone in a message disseminated on X. 

On Friday, a man wearing a necklace with a Star of David was accosted by two other men, one of whom punched him in the face while calling him a "dirty Jew". At this time, the other filmed the scene, we have learned from a source close to the case. The victim was only slightly injured, according to the same source.

Face masked

The 26-year-old man still bears the scars of this assault on his face: A bruise on his left temple and a slight dislocation of his jaw. Still in shock, the victim told Europe 1 of his Friday walk, which he regularly does to walk his dog. Just as he was about to return home, in the courtyard in front of his apartment building, he heard someone running behind him. He then turned around and was violently struck in the head. 

According to him, this attack was "targeted". "The one who attacked me had his face masked by a neck covering and a hood. He called me a dirty faf* and a dirty Jew, and a short distance away, there was someone else who was filming me," he recounts.

(*faf) An expression applied to one perceived as a right-wing extremist or fascist.

"They noticed me and ran off"

His neighbor, Tom, heard the cries and saw the scene as he came out on the balcony. "He was slammed against a car and beaten. One (blow) to the jaw and two to the forehead. I only heard (them) say "dirty faf". They actually noticed me when I was on the balcony. As a result, they left running," he told Europe 1.

Before fleeing, the victim claimed that his attackers claimed to be with the Jeune Garde (Young Guard), an extreme leftist group based in Lyon. Today, the young man, kippa on his head and the Star of David around his neck, refuses to resign himself to no longer going out and suppressing his identity. Still, he has cut short his walk, fearing that the attackers will (attack) again. "They promised me they would return to kill me," he confided.

Anti-Jewish Vandalism at Northwestern University During Passover

Just when you thought the pro-Hamas activists in the US couldn't go any lower. Northwestern University awoke Monday morning to find anti-Jewish, anti-Israel graffiti painted on the walls of campus buildings, including one that houses a Holocaust educational foundation.

This is the report from the campus newspaper, the Daily Northwestern.



"Intifada now!" (Apparently misspelled)



"In recent history, the inverted red triangle has been used at various times as a way to identify Israeli targets for Hamas fighters or a symbol of Palestinian resistance." - Daily Northwestern



"One of the buildings vandalized was Kresge Centennial Hall, home to the Holocaust Educational Foundation of Northwestern University. Founded by Auschwitz survivor Theodore Zev Weiss, the foundation is dedicated to preserving Holocaust memory and advancing education about its lessons. The symbolism of this attack, and its location, is deeply painful."
-Chicago Jewish Alliance

As long as these Hamas-lovers continue this repugnant activity, the more the American people are turning away in disgust. Whoever did this should be expelled if they are students, fired if they are employed by the university, and prosecuted. If they are non-citizens, they should be deported.
