Child Prostitution in France: Is the Government Complicit?

Hat tip RAIR Foundation USA, Vlad Tepes, and Gates of Vienna

I am cross-posting an article from RAIR Foundation USA regarding the case of a young girl who was the victim of child prostitution in France. Worse yet, she was supposedly under the protection of three governmental child protection homes while all this was happening. Fousesquawk also assisted in the translation of the video in the article, along with RAIR Foundation USA, Gates of Vienna, and Vlad Tepes.

Noura Erakat to Speak at UCLA




I am cross-posting an article in the Jewish Journal (Los Angeles) by my friend and colleague, Tammi Rossman-Benjamin. Tammi is a retired professor of Hebrew at the University of California at Santa Cruz and co-founder of the Amcha Initiative, an organization devoted to combating campus anti-Semitism. I have previously posted many of Tammi's articles on this site. This article illustrates how university faculty has been part of the problem of anti-Semitism on our campuses.

In this article, Tammi informs us that Rutgers professor Noura Erakat is coming to speak at UCLA on the subject of Israel and the Palestinians. She is a fierce critic of Israel, and her vitriol over the years has led to numerous accusations of anti-Semitism. She has also previously been featured on this site over the years.

Rutgers is one of the worst schools in the country when it comes to anti-Semitism, and in my view, Erakat has contributed to that climate.

Germany: Pro-Hamas Students Storm University Building and Set Off Firecrackers




In Munich, now that the Oktoberfest is all wrapped up, the little rascals have to find other ways to occupy themselves. So it was that on Friday, about 40 pro-Hamas types stormed the main campus building of the Technical University of Munich, set off fireworks from the roof, unfurled a banner, and finally left after being threatened with trespass charges.

Pro-Palestinian activists storm university-100 police officers deployed

Posted November 9, 2025 

About 40 pro-Palestinian activists stormed the main building of the Technical University of Munich and set off fireworks from the roof. They left the building after threats of trespass charges.

During a demonstration, about 40 pro-Palestinian activists entered the main building of the Technical University of Munich. They set off fireworks from the roof and unfurled a banner, as a police spokesperson reported. According to the information, the demonstration was held under the motto, "Students against TUM complicity-Stop research for apartheid."

After about 2 hours, the activists left the building when they were threatened with trespass charges by the university. The police then secured the entrance to the university building.

According to police, around 500 demonstrators in total marched through the Bavarian capital on Friday evening. No other incidents happened, (and )around 100 police officers were deployed.

Anti-Semitism commissioner speaks of slander

Bavaria's anti-Semitism Commissioner, Ludwig Spaenle, stated on the incident that criticism of the Israeli government is absolutely permissible, but defaming the Federal Government of Germany's scientific institutions is unacceptable. The accusations of the activists of an alleged complicity of the Technical University in the suffering of people in Gaza are vile slander and lack any foundation.

Austria: Police Seize Hamas Weapons Cache in Vienna




As part of a coordinated anti-terror operation between Germany, Austria, and the UK, Austrian police have seized a weapons cache in Vienna connected to the arrest of 3 men in Berlin in early October. In addition, British police have arrested an alleged co-conspirator in the UK who is identified as the son of a high-ranking Hamas official. The arrests and seizures are reportedly all linked to Hamas's effort to carry out terror attacks against Jews and Jewish institutions in Europe. The Austrian daily, Heute, identifies the 3 Berlin suspects as; Abed Al G., Wael F.M., and Ahamad I.

As often reported on this site, these terror plots are going on all over Western Europe, and several have been thwarted just in recent weeks by European police. More are expected with the coming of the Christmas season, when Christmas markets are a prime target. In France, as they are preparing to commemorate the victims of the November 13, 2015 terror attacks in Paris, the police and intelligence services are on high alert. Three women have just been arrested in France for allegedly planning a terror attack. All this is supposed to be connected with convicted terrorist, Salah Abdesalam, the last surviving member of the November 15 attacks, who, coincidentally, has just been found to be in possession of an unauthorized computer thumb drive in his cell.

And it's not just in Europe. In New Jersey, it is being reported today that three young men have been arrested in connection with the recent Halloween jihadist terror plot that was foiled in Michigan.

Yes, they are not just in Europe; they are here as well.

The radical Islamist Hamas had stockpiled weapons in Vienna and planned attacks against Israeli or Jewish institutions.

Hamas planned attacks against Jewish institutions. Weapons depot  uncovered

Islamist terror

November 8, 2025 at 13:00

In Vienna, an alleged weapons cache of the Islamist Hamas was discovered. Investigators from the Office of State Security and Intelligence Service (DSN) found several firearms and magazines in a rented storage room. Five handguns and 10 corresponding magazines were seized. According to current information, the weapons were allegedly to be used for possible attacks against Israeli or Jewish institutions in Europe. 

Son of Hamas functionary arrested

The discovery comes in connection with an internationally coordinated investigative action. In Great Britain, on Monday, a 39-year-old man was reportedly arrested, who, according to ITV News, is the son of a high-ranking Hamas functionary. The suspect will reportedly be handed over to Germany.

Swedish TV Documents Massacre in Sudan

Al-Fateh Abdullah Idris aka Abu Lulu


While the leftists in the West cry, march, and protest on behalf of the Palestinians in Gaza, they don't utter a peep about what is going on in places like Sudan and Nigeria. In Nigeria, thousands of Christians are being murdered by Muslim terrorists, while in Sudan, the so-called Rapid Support Forces or RSF militia is carrying out atrocities against innocent civilians. On October 26, the RSF captured the western Sudan town of al-Fashir, and they have reportedly raped and executed thousands. Swedish State TV (SVT) has reviewed about 10 videos spread on social media by RSF themselves that show the massacre of 80 civilians.

The article below from SVT, which also contains video (viewer warning), is translated by Fousesquawk. We also anticipate adding English subtitles to the video. It must be noted that while neither the written article nor the video's Swedish narration mentions it, you can hear repeated calls of "Allahu akhbar" from the RSF killers.

The video clip shows brutal massacre by RSF in Sudan

Posted today (11-7-2025) at 18:57


SVT verifies- 2,000 civilians reportedly have died after the paramilitary RSF took control over the town al-Fashir in Sudan almost two weeks ago. SVT has verified some 10 film clips from the scene where over 80 people were murdered. 

On October 26, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) captured the town of al-Fashir in southwestern Sudan. According to the UN, the population has been subjected to executions and sexual violence.

"We are appalled over the scope and brutality of the crimes reported in al-Fashir," the UN Human Rights Agency, OHCHR, writes.

The al-Fashir massacre is well-documented. SVT has reviewed 10 film clips that are disseminated on social media; many seem to have been filmed by the perpetrators themselves. In the video clips can be seen more than 80 bodies. Many of the video clips were also earlier geolocated by Bellingcat. 

In one clip, soldiers sitting on a jeep can be seen. They laugh as they pass dead people lying on the ground. 

Unarmed people shot to death

In many of the video clips that SVT has reviewed, a man is seen with dark, curly hair and a white scarf shooting people to death- Abu Lulu, commander in the RSF, according to several independent sources. He has been active in the militia at least since 2023 and has made himself known as brutal and ruthless.

On October 30, RSF announced on Telegram that it had detained a number of persons, including Abu Lulu, who are accused of "violations". The arrest has been dismissed by certain investigators as a PR stunt.

 People in flight

Since October 26, over 82,000 people have fled al-Fashir, and 1,300 people have arrived in the neighboring town of Tawila with gunshot wounds, according to the UN.

"This is the worst I have seen in terms of human suffering," says surgeon Peter Moberger, who works with Doctors Without Borders in Tawila.

On Thursday, RSF agreed to a proposal for a humanitarian ceasefire. One day later, the AP news bureau received information that Sudan's military had shot down RSF drones.

In the video, you can see how the mass murder outside al-Fashir took place.

Civil War in Sudan

After the dictator, Omar al-Bashir, was overthrown in 2019, RSF and the Regular Army (SAF) ruled together prior to coming into conflict, and war broke out in 2023.

Egypt, Iran, and Saudi Arabia support the army. The UAE supports the RSF.

Now the world's biggest humanitarian catastrophe is ongoing in the country, which is 4 times bigger than Sweden in terms of land surface.

The town of al-Fashir, with 250,000 residents, was the Sudanese army's last big stronghold in Western Sudan until the RSF took control over the town in October 2025.

How we did the review

 SVT gathered 10 video clips disseminated on social media, which show how the massacre took place

By comparing visible landmarks in the video clips with a satellite image taken by the Vantor company on October 27, we were able to establish that the incidents took place north of the town of al-Fashir (coordinates: 13.713553, 25.278606). On the satellite image can be seen burned out cars which we have matched with the video clip. The satellite images from Planet Labs indicate that the cars were not there on October 26.

With the help of the Suncalc tool, we have analyzed the length and direction of visible shadows, which show that most of the video clips were filmed in the morning.

We have identified RSF's commander, Abu Lulu, by comparing video clips with earlier images of the commander.

    Mexico: Plot to Attack Israeli Embassy/Ambassador Thwarted


    Israeli Ambassador Einat Krantz-Neiger
    (Excelsior)


    Mexican and US sources are announcing that earlier this year, Mexico thwarted a plot to assassinate Israel's ambassador, Einat Kranz-Neiger, on Mexican soil. Both the US and Mexico are accusing  Iran of being behind the plot. Specific details apparently have not been disclosed at this time.

    Israel thanks Mexico for thwarting an attack on its embassy

    The Israeli diplomatic mission in the country pointed out the coordinated work of the Mexican agencies that succeeded in thwarting the intentions of the attack.

    Raul Flores Martinez, November 7, 2025 at 12:46

    The government of Israel expressed its profound gratitude to the security and intelligence agencies of Mexico for having neutralized an alleged terrorist plan directed by Iran, whose objective was to attack the Israeli ambassador on Mexican territory.

    Through a press release, the Israeli mission in the country pointed out the coordinated work of the Mexican agencies who, through a joint operation, succeeded in thwarting the intentions of the attack, avoiding an attack they classified as part of an Iranian global strategy against Israeli targets and Jews.

    Embassy of Israel in Mexico

    "The state of Israel will continue working tirelessly and in close cooperation with its counterparts all over the world to frustrate the terrorist threats of Iran and its emissaries."

    The statement recalled that Teheran has publicly reiterated its purpose of eliminating the state of Israel, with statements from its leaders that incite violence and destruction.

    It also mentioned that terrorist actions linked to Iran have a long history in Latin America.

    Among them, the 1992 attacks against the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires, which left 29 dead and more than 240 injured, and the 1994 attack against AMIA, the headquarters of the Argentine Jewish community, in which 85 people died.

    Israel vs. Iran

    In the current context, two opposing paths are evident. On the one hand, Israel is maintaining a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, with the objective of promoting a new reality of stability and peace in the Middle East, backed by various countries of the region, among them, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, and Qatar.

    On the other hand, Iran continues to pursue actions of destabilization, both directly and through its allied groups, threatening regional and global security. 

    Terrorist threats

    This case is not insignificant for Mexico in that planning an attack against the ambassador of Israel in our country shows that threats of international terrorism are not foreign to the region. They are much closer than many believe.

    The fact that Mexican authorities have intervened in time not only avoids a tragedy but also makes it clear that Mexico has the capacity and the will to act when it comes to protecting diplomatic security.

    In Latin America, the Jewish communities and the Israeli embassies continue to be possible targets of attacks like those that already occurred in Buenos Aires in the 1990s.

    France: Afghan "Refugee" Who Thought Taliban Were Heroes Murders Wife

    Hat tip Remix News (Hungary)


    This story first broke in September, and we picked it up from Remix News (Hungary). It is yet another murder in Europe by an Afghan "refugee". The victim, Ines, was working for an association that helps refugees, and entered into a romantic relationship with an Afghan man, identified by some sources as Habib (36). Later, the man allegedly began abusing her, and she filed 6 complaints with French police in Poitiers. Apparently, no action was taken. In September, Ines, who had moved out of their shared dwelling to take refuge with her mother, returned to the residence to pick up mail and was stabbed to death. The suspect is apparently still being sought.

    I wonder just how many innocent people in Europe have been murdered by these so-called refugees from Afghanistan. Reportedly, this "refugee" expressed the opinion that the Taliban were heroes and that he intended to return to Afghanistan.

    The article below from Le Figaro is translated by Fousesquawk. The translation is incomplete because the article is under a partial subscriber block.

    Story: Ines, stabbed to death on Monday, had filed 6 complaints against her former partner, an Afghan refugee, for acts of violence and harassment, in vain. Her mother describes a "dangerous man" and "an extremist", who "did not want to integrate and intended to return to Afghanistan." 

    "She was just going to pick up her mail, (but) unfortunately, she entered the house but never came out." Contacted by Le Figaro, the family of Ines recounts the last moments of the 25-year-old young woman, killed on Monday by several stab wounds in Poitiers. In this instance, her former partner, the principal suspect, is still being sought. Harassed, threatened with death, and beaten by a political refugee from Afghanistan. Ines was no longer living at her residence for a month, but had taken refuge with her mother, Angelique. 

    Despite 6 complaints lodged with the police station, those close to the victim maintain that the police "did not take Ines' statements seriously". An investigation by IGPN (Inspectorate General of the National Police) has been opened, a source close to the case tells us. The prosecutor's office in Poitiers has opened a murder case.

    Sweden: Police Foil Planned Terrorist Attack



    Swedish police have announced that a terror plot by two men, one an 18-year-old Syrian with Swedish citizenship and a 17-year-old, not further identified, has been foiled. Both were arrested, apparently earlier this year. The Swedish daily, Expressen, has identified the 18-year-old as Faris al Abdullah, and also reports that an undercover Swedish police officer had made contact with the suspect during the planning stage.

    ISIS man was going to attack a cultural festival

    Posted November 6, 2025 at 10:23 am

    Domestic- An 18-year-old Syrian with Swedish citizenship is charged with having planned a terror attack in the name of the Islamic State against a cultural festival in  Kungsträdgården. According to the indictment, he attempted to manufacture explosive material, purchased a body camera to film the crime, and had already made a martyr's video in January.

    The planning reportedly went on from August 2024 to February of this year, when Säpo (Security Police) intervened. The accused reportedly scouted Kungsträdgården and conducted searches related to the festival.

    The prosecutor states that the arrest occurred on the same day that he was deemed to have begun what could have become functional (explosive) charges.

    "The purpose of the act was to instill serious fear in the name of ISIS in people or a portion of people who do not share ISIS' ideology," the prosecutor writes in the indictment.

    In addition, the 18-year-old, together with a 17-year-old from Malmö, is also charged with attempted murder in Eppstein, Germany, in August 2024. The pair allegedly procured a knife, scouted out the victim's residence, and tried to get in before the attack was interrupted, and German police were alerted.

    Both are also charged with aggravated participation in a terrorist organization. At their residence(s), authorities reportedly found terrorist- related material and an oath of allegiance to ISIS. The 18-year-old man is also charged with preparation of an aggravated crime against the Law on Flammable and Explosive Materials, as well as aggravated training for terrorism.

     The National Unit for Security Targets is holding a press conference on the case at 1 pm.




    Escape From New York

    This article first appeared in New English Review.



     In truth, New York City has never been one of my favorite towns. Maybe a lot of that has to do with me being born and raised in Los Angeles. Call it a conflict of cultures.

    My own experiences in the Big Apple are pretty much limited to my career in the Drug Enforcement Administration. Though I was never stationed in New York City, I had many occasions to go there on cases and to testify in federal court, both in the Southern District of New York (Manhattan) and the Eastern District Court, located in Brooklyn. I never had a desire to go there on holiday.

    It’s not that I feel any animosity toward New Yorkers. I had occasion to work with many agents who were New Yorkers, especially during my 5 years stationed in Milan, Italy (1982-1987). It’s true that many New Yorkers come across as brash and quick to speak their mind, which can put off people from other parts of the country. Once you get to know them, deep inside, they are like Americans from other regions of the US.

    When 9-11 happened, I, like most any decent American, poured out my heart to the city, given the horrendous event that happened that day. We all came together, and, as the saying goes, we all became New Yorkers.

    That brings me to the subject at hand. As expected, Zohran Mamdani was elected as mayor yesterday, and the reaction is being felt all over the country. Just two and a half decades after the attack on the Twin Towers by Al Qaida, New York has not just elected a Muslim mayor, but one who is clearly an Islamist, an extreme leftist, an anti-Semite, and a supporter of Hamas in the recent war in Gaza, precipitated by the horrendous attack against Israel on October 7, 2023.  In my view, it is a slap in the face for the victims and their families, not to mention the police and fire fighters who died heroically that day.

    How could this have happened?

    It is true that the city has suffered under poor leadership in recent years. The outgoing mayor, Eric Adams, has been nothing to write home about, and his predecessor, Bill de Blasio, was a horrible mayor, a cop-hater who, obviously, was detested by the NYPD due to his hostility to law enforcement. It is also true that Mamdani did not face strong opposition. After defeating the disgraced former governor, Andrew Cuomo, who inexplicably got it into his head that he wanted to be mayor, in the Democratic primary, and who then ran again in the general election as an independent, the only other candidate opposing Mamdani was Curtis Sliwa, of Guardian Angels fame. While I would have preferred to see Sliwa win the job, he clearly had no chance in a solidly blue city.

    All that said, the voters in New York have made a disastrous choice knowing full well the baggage that Mamdani brought with him. They knew he wanted to make everything free in the city. They knew he was an anti-Semite, a supporter of “globalizing the intifada”, and a radical extremist. They also knew that he was buddy-buddy with the Islamist New York radical imam, Siraj Wahhaj, a despicable character, who once called America a “filthy garbage can” and who was connected to the so-called Blind Sheikh, Omar Abdel-Rahman, who in turn, orchestrated the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. Wahhaj even testified in his defense at the trial. And yet, in the face of all this, while supposedly responsible Democratic leaders, like Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, hid in the weeds, New York elected Mamdani as its next mayor.

    So where do we go from here? How are we supposed to feel about this city, which some call the greatest city in the world, but yet is filled with serious problems, and is already a place where Jews don’t feel safe. Are we supposed to pray that they weather the storm?

    Let me tell you how I feel.

    If I were living in that city, I would get out as fast as I could put my house up for sale. If I had a business in that city, I would either sell it or move it lock, stock, and barrel out of the city. Look for a mass exodus out of New York. Watch the economy collapse. I fully expect that we will see mass retirements and resignations within the police department. What cop would want to work under a mayor who hates them? They already experienced that with de Blasio. Already, the city fire chief has announced his resignation.

    Crime will now have a free hand, as if it doesn’t already. New York will proudly continue its role as a sanctuary city, and criminals who are arrested will be turned loose even faster than they have been under the last two administrations. Jews will be openly attacked on the streets and their synagogues and institutions will be also be attacked. Pro-Palestinian riots will increase in intensity, and yes, people will get injured or even killed. At the risk of hyperbole, I feel that New York City’s future will begin to resemble that old Kurt Russel movie, “Escape From New York”.  

    There is no question that any semblance of a relationship between the Trump administration and the city will disappear. ICE will continue its operations in the city and be opposed in every way imaginable by Mamdani’s Administration. This will result in more violence whenever ICE launches an operation in the city. Whatever federal funding Trump can withhold from the city, he will withhold. And I don’t blame him.

    In short, I think the city should not complain about whatever happens. I do feel bad for those people who strongly opposed Mamdani, but I would also urge them to leave. They are now outnumbered, and life is going to get much worse for them, especially if they are Jewish. In that vein, I have nothing but contempt for those liberal Jews who actually supported Mamdani and voted for him.  As for those voters who voted for this creep, I feel no sympathy for what is to come.  The city of New York has made its bed, and now can lie in it. Sorry, but that’s how I feel.

    France: Man Runs Down 10 People With Car: Screams "Allahu Akhbar"



    l’Île d’Oléron



    On Wednesday morning, on the island of l’Île d’Oléron, a French island off the Atlantic coast of France, due west of Roquefort, a man identified as Jean Guillot, 35, deliberately drove his vehicle into about 10 pedestrians and bicyclists, injuring about 5 people. He then set fire to his car and fled on foot before being captured by police, who reportedly had to taser him. It is widely reported that during the rampage and during his arrest, the suspect yelled, "Allahu Akhbar".

    Guillot, who is identified in some press accounts only as Jean G., reportedly has a history of drug and alcohol abuse. According to various press outlets, he has a minor criminal record, but was not known to French intelligence agencies as someone who was radicalized. However, Le Figaro is reporting that Guillot told police that he had been searching for "spiritual answers", had "discovered Islam", and that "Allah had entrusted him with a mission".

    At this stage, the National Anti-Terrorist Prosecutor's Office is monitoring developments in the case as police continue to investigate the apparent jihadist motivation.

    The article below from Le Figaro is partially translated by Fousesquawk. Note that the article is only partuially translated since the remainder is under a subscriber block.

    Info Le Figaro- Arrested after his deadly path with his car as a battering ram that produced 5 injured, the suspect explained that he had been searching for spiritual answers.

    Over 10 years ago, far from l’Île d’Oléron , the spokesman for Daech (ISIS) issued a call that sadly became famous: "Isolate the American infidel, the French infidel, or any of their allies (...) run them down with your car." And one thing is already certain: Whatever his motivations are, terrorist, psychiatric, or pertaining to the category of common law of "Islamist-inspired crimes and offenses", this call was followed to the letter on Wednesday morning by the perpetrator of the deadly rampage on this Atlantic island, more known for its ocean splendors than for jihadist connections. A premeditated attack perpetrated by a determined man.  

    The facts, described by Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez, who went to the scene, are terrifying. Wednesday morning, Jean G., born in 1990 and of French nationality, left his residence, a mobile home located in La Cotinière, on the western coast of the island. He..........(Subscriber block).

    France: Life Without Parole for Murderer of 12-Year-Old Lola

    Lola


    Earlier this month, the trial of Dahbia Benkired, a 27-year-old Algerian woman, began in Paris. She was charged with kidnapping, sexually assaulting, torturing, and ultimately murdering a 12-year-old girl, whom all of France has come to know as Lola.

    On October 24, Benkired was convicted and sentenced to life in prison without possibility of parole. She is the first woman in French history to be sentenced to life without parole.

    In the article below from Le Parisien, it is now reported that Benkired will not appeal the sentence. The article is translated by Fousesquawk. The article also contains a short video of Lola's brother and mother making a statement following the verdict. We are working to add English subtitles to that video.


    "She wishes that we don't talk about her anymore": Dahbia Benkired will not appeal her conviction for the death of Lola

    Dahbia Benkired was sentenced by the Criminal Court of Paris on October 24 to life imprisonment without (the possibility) of parole for the murder and rape of Lola, 12, in October 2022.

    There will not be a second trial. Dahbia Benkired, sentenced to the maximum punishment provided by the penal code for the murder of Lola, did not appeal the decision rendered on October 24 by the Criminal Court of Paris, her defense counsel, Attorney Alexandre Valois, informed Le Parisien

    The other defense counsel for Dahbia Benkired, Attorney Lucile Berier, also stated that, "Our client decided not to file an appeal for her own personal reasons. Her decision was made a long time ago, but we could not communicate that," she continues, "because she had the right to change her mind up to the last moment given the sentence pronounced. She now wishes that we no longer talk about her." 

    "We believed in justice, and we got it"

    Dahbia Benkired, 27, had been found guilty of rape, acts of torture, barbarities, and the murder of Lola and had been sentenced on October 24 to life imprisonment without the (possibility) of parole. 

    "This is a just decision. We have restored the memory, the truth of this young girl," Clotilde Lepetit, attorney for Lola's family, declared.  "Justice will allow us to go forward. The punishment is equal to the immensity of the crime committed."

    "We got what we wanted, we restored the memory of my sister, we restored the truth. Thank you to the justice system, (and) we are happy with the response we have received," Thibault Daviet, Lola's brother, reacted after the announcement of the verdict. "Even if this does not bring our Lola back to us," her mother, Delphine Daviet, concluded in tears. "Thank you to all for the support. We believed in justice, and we got it."

    Lola, 12, was found dead in Paris on October 14, 2022, a few hours after her parents reported her disappearance. Her corpse, sexually violated, had been enclosed in a trunk, abandoned in the courtyard of her apartment building.

    Germany: Syrian Refugee Arrested in Berlin for Planning Terror Attack

    In 2015, then German Chancellor Angela Merkel, in response to the Syrian civil war, opened the floodgates to her country to Syrian "refugees", predominantly unaccompanied single men in their 20s. Today, there are an estimated 1 million Syrians in Germany alone. Merkel also took the lead in persuading other EU countries to admit refugees. Her now widely mocked statement at the time was, "Wir schaffen dass" (We can do this). However, the results in terms of crime, terrorism, rapes, murders, social division, and social welfare costs have been catastrophic.

    "Wir schaffen dass"

    This week, German police in Berlin arrested a 22-year-old Syrian asylum-seeker identified only as  Abdallah R., after he was found stockpiling explosive devices and calling for the murder of non-Muslims on social media.

    The article below from the conservative German site, PI (Politically Incorrect), is translated by Fousesquawk. 


    Berlin-Neukölln: Interesting details about the Syrian terrorist, Abdallah R.

    November 3, 2025

    Caption: Arrest with large police deployment and select press. How many ideological sympathizers of the Syrian suspect are walking around free?

    By Manfred Rouhs- The Berlin State Criminal Police consider the arrest of the 22-year-old Syrian terror suspect, Abdallah R., as an important investigative success. Indeed, the seized material for explosive devices suggests that the terror suspect could have caused heavy damage had the police not been on his trail. The case, however, sheds light on the state of the German asylum system as well. 

    Since September 2023, the Syrian had enjoyed subsidized protection in Germany. That means he was not entitled to asylum, but nevertheless was not deported for the purpose of protecting him from harm in his country of origin. All these facts were based on his own statements, and he apparently handled this quite well and was also probably well advised. Neither his jihadist beliefs nor his intentions in Germany came out in the asylum proceedings.

    The investigators only became aware of Abdallah R. because he was disseminating so-called "Nashids" of the Islamic State on social media, as the Morgenpost reports. Those are religious battle songs, in which the murder of "unbelievers" is called for. After that, he was placed under surveillance and was found to be stockpiling explosive materials in 3 different Berlin apartments, the rent of which was paid by German taxpayers. That led to the raid.

    How many of these types are still living in Germany? How do we deal with them if they themselves don't show their beliefs through online postings, but rather remain inconspicuous?

    Christmas is approaching, and with it, possibly, the next series of attacks. That is not a good advertisement for strolling through pedestrian zones and through Christmas markets. It is frightening that we cannot get rid of Abdallah R.'s brothers in spirit quickly enough to restore safe conditions in Germany.
