Nigeria: Boko Haram attack Army convoy.

(MAIDUGURI) After suffering numerous set backs, including losing all of its self proclaimed emirate the Nigerian Terrorist outfit 'Boko Haram' still has the teeth in which to strike back at the forces which have cost it so much. However unlike the past where it would attack on mass, now it carries out pin prick attacks designed more to try and keep its name in the headlines than an attempt in which to re-carve a new Islamic empire. So today elements of 113 Battalion on route to the town of Damasak found themselves under attack. 

The area was taken back by the self styled protectors of Islam (Who for some very strange reason operate in.....Sharia run Islamic areas of Nigeria) last year. The problem for Boko Haram, is the Nigerian military is a lot stronger, more committed and has the toys in which to take the fight to these Islamic zealots.

Israel finds and destroys Hamas Tunnel

(Gaza)  Israel today revealed that they have uncovered a attack tunnel,dug by Hamas in which to allow terrorists to sneak into the country and murder as many innocent people as possible. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu spoke on Monday with a warning   that Israel would respond with force to any attempt by Hamas to harm Israeli civilians.

"Israel will respond with force to any attempt by Hamas to attack its soldiers and attack its civilians. I am certain that Hamas understands that well."

The tunnel – about 30-40 metres deep, was lined with concrete equipped with communication lines, air supply and rails for further excavation – was uncovered last week although its existence was confirmed only on Monday.The tunnel entered Israel in an area some distance from Israeli military bases and civilian homes and appears to have been dug since the last set to between Hamas and Israel.  However as the two are supposed to be observing a ceasefire, it does ask the question about how committed Hamas is to peace.

I notice that all these so called human rights orgs which openly berate Israel for not allowing in enough building materials into Gaza in which to rebuild the mini state after it lost a war of its own making , are remaining very silent on how materials which should be used to build homes are being used to build tunnels for war. Tunnels i should add the civilian population are denied to use

UK: violent illegal immigrant jailed for breaking leg of 5 year old

(Bradford) Brave 39 year Shipon Ahmed sneaked into the Uk hoping for a better life. I don’t know what excuse he used, but for somebody living here illegally, you’d think he would have kept a very low profile.

Nah, it seems that buoyed by the human rights laws in the Uk, where crooks, criminals , terrorists and paedophiles are afforded more rights than their victims. Mr Ahmed decided to go out on a violent streak. (Sanctioned no less by his subscription to a very peaceful faith I bet).

Islamic thug Ahmed

So what did Ahmed do, well for a start he broke the femur of a 5 year old child, which he tried to pass off as the result of tripping up over a toy. A paediatric doctor said during the first trial that the boy had been swung by his leg, kicked or stamped on. The judge said the strongest bone in his body had been "cracked and separated, displaced and shattered."

Not only that but it appears that 16 days before his trial, Ahmed had glassed a man in the face in a night club in a fit of jealousy.  But what makes this story even worse is that Illegal immigrant Ahmed had previous convictions for benefit fraud, harassment, and battery on a former partner. So why wasn’t he deported the first time.

Well it seems that even in the UK, enough is enough and Ahmed has been jailed for 15 years (read that as 7) with a request he be deported at the end of it. The problem is, he will tie up the courts with a request for political asylum and some ethical latte drinker will grant his wish, due to Ahmeds human right to live in the country.

2016 Iranian Military parade: rehashed equipment revealed. (Again)

(Tehran) Its that time of year inside the Islamic paradise that is Iran where the mad mullahs who promote their never ending message that Islam is only a religion of peace, have their annual military parade, whilst the worlds media have concentrated on the purchase,delivery and showing off , of the S300 anti-aircraft missile system., the Iranians also revealed a few other, most uninteresting bits of kit:

First off is the new all singing and dancing Taim tank, based on the M47M (Patton) tank which the US developed for...export during the 60s. 

M47 Patton Tank

Taim Tank

The only two countries which purchased these medium tanks were Iran and Pakistan, in the mad mullahs hands the M47M fared badly during their little set to with Iraq during the 80s, so they locked up their best scientists (A common occurrence inside Iran apparently)  and in 2014, the Iranians revealed to the world their latest tank ....the Sabalan aka the M47M

Sabalan tank.

According to the Iranians the Sabalan is a heavily modified version of the M47M, they replaced the 90mm gun with a 105mm one, fitted a new fire control system and a new radio. Well despite all these so called improvements, the Sabalan is no better than an up-gunned T55 , which means it is under-gunned  and vulnerable to virtually the entire gamut of anti tank weaponry out there. So instead of admitting they got it wrong, the Iranians have promoted to the world that they have a fantastic new tank, say hello to the Taim. its the Sabalan with a different turret, the same gun and some explosive armour and a new paint job.

Funny enough at the rear of the video clip a couple of North Korean Ch'ŏnma-ho tanks can be seen. (The NK version of the T62). Now that's something I would like to hear more about.

Aftermath of Russian bombing of ISIS capital ; Raqqa.

(Syria) The self proclaimed capital of ISIS  received a little something from the Russians the other day when they did to ISIS what these warped wankers have been doing to everybody else. They blew up part of the city.  Whilst I don't subscribe to the death and injury of anybody, I have no problem with these psychotic idiots getting a taste of their own medicine. (And before somebody points innocent people, err, I'd bet that all the non ISIS people left the city years ago, or have been killed off)

After 14 years Afghan Air-force finally gets Close Air Support

(Kabul) The US removed the Taliban in 2002 and since then has spent an inordinate amount of money on trying to rebuild the country. Of course it doesn't help that due to Islam the place not only was in the stone age physically , but is still there mentally.  Which kind of explains how corruption, is rife and how it is excused by religion. (usually at the point of death). Which is why it has taken so long in which to effectively train the Afghan armed forces in which to defend the country from those who try to claim that 'Allah' is on their side.

One of the weapons that the god fearing crowd hate is Close Air Support, something that has been lacking in country since so many countries pulled out these past few years. Anyway that little gap has finally closed as the Afghan Airforce has started to use the first of 20 A-29 Super Tucano

The Super Tucano is perfect for the Afghans, cheap to use easy to maintain .packs something of a punch (The A-29s, which were designed for close air support, carry a 20mm cannon below the fuselage, one 12.7mm machine gun under each wing and can also fire 70mm rockets and launch precision-guided bombs.) and get to conflict zones twice as fast as the Helicopter gunships currently used by the Afghans. Which kind of explains why it has been reported that the A29 has been thrown into the thick of things in Afghanistan and used in combat a number of times.

Foreign sources in Kabul stated that the AAF's A-29s conducted combat sorties in Badakhshan and an officer of the Afghan National Army (ANA) deployed to Badakhshan stated that three airstrikes were conducted in the Khostak valley in the district of Jurm, one of the main insurgency strongholds in the region. According to the officer, these were night operations launched from Kabul that targeted and killed three insurgent commanders: two locals as well as one commander who was reportedly a national of Tajikistan.

Iran: Shows off its hidden underground missile network

(Tehran) The huge song and dance that Iran makes at just how great its armed forces are whilst publicly aimed at Israel is actually aimed at at its Sunni Islam neighbours to the West.  The missile shown is the Qiam 1, it has a range of...750 Km. It hasn't the legs to get to Israel., but it can hit any Sunni muslim country in the region.

Kind of explains why the Gulf states spend so much money on the latest military equipment and why Iran knocks out so many videos about how powerful its armed forces are. Last month they aired this video of their underground Missile capability which while looking impressive, is actually very rudimentary and open to attack to anybody with a modern military:

That lack of modern military weapons, may explain why Iran is currently buying as much modern weaponry as it can,

Iran to buy more Russian weapons

Afghanistan situation map as of 12th April 2016.

(ISW) Here is the current situation as reported by the Institute for the study of War regards Afghanistan:

1. Militants attacked heavily fortified areas in Kabul City, launching four explosive attacks against security and diplomatic targets from March 25 to 29. ISIS Wilayat Khorasan militants also indicated intent to attack Kabul City by claiming two unconfirmed attacks in southern Kabul on April 6. These attacks will likely increase following the announcement of the Taliban militants’ summer offensive “Operation Omari” on April 12.

2. Clearing operations continued to displace ISIS Wilayat Khorasan militants from Nangarhar Province into other eastern provinces. ISIS’s militants reportedly moved to Sar Kani District, Kunar Province following ANSF clearing operations in Nangarhar Province in late March. ISIS militants also conducted their first attack in Ghazni Province north of Ghazni City on March 11 and reportedly continued recruiting in Ghazni and Zabul Provinces, including Gelan, Jaghuri, and Khak-e Afghan Districts in early April. Some ISIS militants remain in southern Nangarhar despite a significant increase in U.S. airstrikes and ANSF clearing operations, with some allegedly pledging allegiance to Taliban leader Mullah Akhtar Mansour on April 11.

3. ANSF retook Reg-e Khan Neshin District Center in Helmand Province with support from US airstrikes on March 28 after Taliban militants briefly captured it on March 15, demonstrating the effectiveness of ANSF operations combined with U.S. airstrikes. Taliban militants control seven districts in Helmand Province, however, and are contesting areas surrounding the provincial capital Lashkar Gah. ISW has updated this version of its Afghanistan map to reflect Taliban militants’ longstanding control of Baghran District Center in Helmand, which is now among ISW’s researched districts. The map now also reflects Taliban militants’ effective control of Kajaki District Center, as the ANSF is reportedly unable to maneuver beyond a fixed position at the nearby Kajaki dam.

4. Rival Taliban militant factions participated in large-scale clashes in Shindand District, Herat Province. Shindand District is a launching pad for militant operations in western Afghanistan. The district is currently a stronghold for leading dissident Taliban commander Mullah Rasul Akhund’s faction.

5. Rival Northern Warlords First Vice President General Abdul Rashid Dostum and Balkh Provincial Governor Mohammad Atta Noor conducted competing operations against Taliban militants in Faryab, Jowzjan and Balkh Provinces in late February and early March. Competition between the rival warlords intensified when Dostum and Atta’s supporters staged protests and counter-protests in Mazar-e Sharif and Maimanah Cities on March 22 and 23. Competition between these northern warlords reflects competition between President Ghani, linked with Ghani, and CEO Abdullah Abdullah, whom Atta backs, and challenges the legitimacy of the National Unity Government by strengthening militias conducting operations outside of government control.

6. Taliban militants recaptured Dand-e Ghori area, Pul-e Khumri District, Baghlan Province, returning to the area on March 24 after the ANSF conducted multiple clearing operations. Dand-e Ghori lies on the main road connecting northern Baghlan and Balkh provincial capitals Pul-e Khumri and Mazar-e Sharif and was originally captured by Taliban militants in last year’s spring offensive. Control of this area enables militants to attack Pul-e Khumri City and disrupt travel to Mazar-e Sharif. Taliban militants may have seized the area as a means of demonstrating Pashtun strength in response to protests and militia operations by Uzbek Dostum and Tajik Atta. The capture of Dand-e Ghori immediately followed protests in Mazar-e Sharif and Maimanah on March 22 and 23. Militants also attacked Dowlatabad City in late March in Faryab after Dostum’s operations in the province.

Iraq situation report as of 11th April 2016.

(ISW) Find as below, the latest situation report from the very nice people over at the Institute for the Study of War:

France: PM calls for Islamic Head-scarves to be banned from Universities

(Paris) The French PM (Manuel Vallis) is sure to have offended the peaceful followers of Islam with his suggestion that the Islamic penchant for covering up the female head, should be banned from French universities. this he capped off with by saying:

That a majority of French people think Islam is incompatible with the values of the Republic.

In a interview with the newspaper Libération, he was asked whether headscarves should be banned by law from universities and replied: “It should be done,” however he did conced that the constitution made it difficult. But other Socialist ministers immediately contradicted him. “There is no need for a law on the headscarf at university,” said Thierry Mandon, the higher education minister. He said students were adults, and as such they “have every right to wear a headscarf. The headscarf is not banned in French society.”

Expect a somewhat peaceful demonstration against this by a number of gun totting peaceful followers of Islam in France soon.

Syria: Russia reports loss of Mil-28N Helicopter gunship.

(Homs)  The Russian news agency RT has reported that yesterday that a Russian  Helicopter Gunship  (A Mil 28N Havoc)  has crashed whilst operating over the city of Homs inside Syria resulting in the deaths of the 2 man crew. The Russian media is reporting this as a mechanical fault, however that said Gunships do operate close to the ground and can be shot down especially in built up areas where they can be suckered in, as the US found to their cost in 2007 

Baltic Sea: Russian Jets buzzes USS Donald Cook in infantile move.

(Poland) Russia has been playing bullyboy yet again. It appears that in an attempt to show the World how strong they are, they decided to fly a couple of Su24 jets over the USS Donald Cook after it left the Polish port of Gdynia and was about 70 nautical miles from Kaliningrad (Russian Port) in the Baltic Sea. The Russian jets made 20 passes of the American ship and flew within 1,000 yards at an altitude of just 100 feet. In the second incident on April 12, two Russian KA27 Helix helicopters flew several circles around the Donald Cook, apparently taking photos, after which two jets again made numerous close passes of the ship both simulated attacks took place in international waters about 70 miles from the Russian (Stolen in 1945) enclave of Kaliningrad

Can you imagine the outrage if the US did likewise to a Russian ship, wow, they would be screaming blue murder and demanding an apology.  It appears that the whole world and its dog loves to tweak the tail of the US, in which to try and look good, until the US bitch slaps them, and then it’s a human rights crime.

The SU24 is an all weather supersonic  ground attack aircraft which first flew in 1967, and is also the same jet which the Turks shot down last year when the Russians carried out the same silly stunt there.

The USS Donald Cook is no stranger to Su24 harassment flybys when in Dec 14 it was buzzed by 2 of these ageing SU24s. The thing is, the  Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer is armed with the RIM-161 Standard Missile 3 is more than capable of looking after itself against air and missile attack.

Israel: 2 IDF Soldiers jailed for burning Palestine Flag.

 (Nablus) How many times have you seen a bunch of very angry idiots burning the US,UK and of course the Israeli flag openly in public. In fact my biggest regret in life is not opening a shop which sells US,UK and Israeli flags for these idiots to burn. 

Yet when 2 Israeli soldiers did likewise, why they both received  jail terms. Now before I go on, these soldiers were wrong to do so and it didn't help their case that they first confiscated the flag and then burnt it in front of the people who carried it. But the fact remains in the West anybody can burn a US,UK and Israeli flag and get away with it. But burn a flag that the idiots who usually have no problem burning other people’s flags, follow and wow, it’s a human rights crime. Which is why the Palestinian authority on hearing about the above made a huge song and dance about it. You know that same Palestinian authority which has no problem killing jews any chance it gets. Oh look there's that 'H' word again.

Australia: Islamic prisoner attacks cell mate, carves ISIS term on victim's forehead.

(Kempsey) Last Thursday  warders at  the Mid-North Coast Correctional Centre in New South Wales locked up  maximum security risk  18 year old Islamic state supporter Bourhan Hraichie with a 40 year old Michael Sean O’Keefe who was deemed as a minimum security risk. Within hours Hraichie had attacked his non-Islamic cell mate, crushed his sternum , placed a towel over his head and poured boiling hot water over it, finally he carved ‘E4E’ which means “Eye for an eye” (which came to prominence last year when ISIS decided to set fire to a Jordanian  pilot) onto his victims forehead.

 

Bourhan Hraichie

Questions are now been asked why a radical Muslim classed as a high security risk was placed in a cell with a non muslim deemed a low security risk. In fact the general manager of the prison has been stood down. So much for a religion of peace.

UK: Muslim Councillor suspended for praising Hitler tweets.

(Luton) Labour the official party in opposition in the Uk, has been under the spotlight of late for the reporting of the large number of anti-Semites  within its ranks. Oh  they make a huge song and dance that it isn’t wrong to question  Zionism, but when your party leader is a fully paid up supporter of Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran it doesn’t take much for somebody to make the small jump from question the ways of Zionists to becoming a full blown forming at the mouth racist bigot who while subscribing to the edict that all men are born equal, that actually Jews deserve to be wiped out.

Say hello to 20 year old Aysegul Gurbuz, the Labour councillor for the high town ward of Luton a large town around 32 miles north of London.  

Who after it was found she tweeted the following:

Was suspended (As of today she has since resigned.) As usual a petty excuse was offered for the Hitler tweet:

She said  "multiple people" had had access to her account. "I am horrified to read back what was written and I apologise for them in their entirety", she said.

Muslims have written into their DNA, an open hatred of jews. This all boils down to the fact that when the founder of Islam demanded the jews of Arabia to convert to Islam they refused.  Since that day, Muslims have gone well out of their way in which to make the life of Jews as uncomfortable as possible.  Miss Girbuz is simply doing what her holy books tells her to do when it comes to the Jew.

The thing is the British left have taken it up as well. Which kind of explains why the British Police haven't arrested her, however when a white man tweeted that he asked a Muslim woman to explain the terrorist attacks in Belgium , they banged him up faster than they could utter "Allah Ackba"

How Do-gooders have ruined the world.

(Europe) everywhere you go in the west, there is an ethical latte drinker who will scream and shout at you in which to try and bully you into subscribing to their very polarized train of thought. Just look at Israel, you know, I'll put my hand up and say it isn't the best country in the world, but you what after facing what it has faced from its Islamic neighbours since the very day it was born (and before) its a lot better (In regards to human rights) than any other nation in the region. In fact I'd say that Israel is a lot better than a large number of so called Western nations. But hey how many times have you seen a foaming at the mouth so called human rights activist demanding that Israel be sent the way of the dodo, and quite naturally the intolerant neighbours who all claim to subscribe to a religion of peace, love to play the victim in which to garner the support of their acolytes.

The UK hands over more aid to the Syrian situation than the rest of the EU combined. Yet, to the do-gooders that isn't enough and they demand that the UK does even more, err hello, why aren't you asking other countries, they point at Germany and Sweden who have opened their doors (And we can see just how well that went on New Years day) and whilst ignoring what happens when you open your doors and say come in, they play the racist bigots that we are in not taking our fair share. Which brings me back to Germany and Sweden. Due to them opening their doors and allowing millions in-No passports needed- every man and his dog who can walk has decided that Europe is the place to go. Well instead of just shutting that door, Europe has drawn out a deal with turkey where we pay them billions to take back any non Syrian refugees and Europe will take a Syrian out of their country. Well it appears that Afghan economic migrants have stated that they will kill themselves on mass if they are deported from Europe.

Souaob Nouri from Kabul, who is held in the high-security camp in Chios, said: “If they deport us, we will kill ourselves. We will not go back.” A man next to him warned of “terrible scenes” if Greek authorities insisted on pursuing policies that have already caused alarm among human rights groups.

This people is what happens when do-gooders are allowed to bypass common sense. You know my answer to the problem

Australia purchases 3000 Small Diameter Bombs

(Canberra)  In the past huge fleets of Aircraft were sent against targets in which to bomb the enemy into submission (WW2 ,Korea,Vietnam)  what was found that actually very little damage was done by each air raid and that it took numerous raids which caused a huge amount of collateral damage which in this day and age just isn't acceptable. What was needed was a way to fight the airwar smarter, we saw the first signs of this in the opening air war against Saddam Hussain in 1991, since then the West has taken direct targeting of military targets to a whole new level. None more so than the USAF. One such example is the Small Diameter Bomb.(SDB)   A 250lb bomb which is fitted with a guidance unit allows it to hit within 8 metres of the bulleye, This allows one plane to carry more bombs which allow it to surgically strike more targets to the same effect that a fleet of aircraft couldn't achieve years past.

Well so impressive is the SDB , that quite a few nations use them, yes the ethical latte crowd don't like it when you look funny at a gun totting terrorist , never mind give them a dose of their medicine , but the fact remains by using less bombs, with much smaller warhead, you not only get more bang for your buck, you have less collateral damage. Which explains why Australia has just put in an order for 3000 SDB

Nagorno-Karabakh ceasefire broken

(Caucasus) reports are coming from both sides of Nagorno-Karabakh that the ceasefire which came into play last week between Armenia and Azerbaijan has been broken with both side playing the victim card.  Seeing as Azerbaijan has everything to win and Armenia everything to lose, add the vastly different arms budgets (In 2014 Azerbaijans military budget was $1 billion higherthan Armenia’s entire state budget,) I'll put money on the table that Baku is the one breaking the ceasefire. However that said, the Armenian's are putting up a stiff fight . Here are some pictures from the Armenian side;

First reported used of Harop 'Suicide' drone by Azerbaijan

(Baku)  It has been reported that in the military strike carried out by Azerbaijan last week against Armenian troops in its runaway state of  Nagorno Karabakh saw the first use of the Israeli made 'Harop' UAV which loiters with intent for up to 6 hours, if it spots a target, it can be tasked to conduct a suicide attack using its 23kg warhead , if not, the UAV can be brought home.

Well it appears that the Azeri troops spotted a coach carrying troops to the front line last week and struck killing either 5 or 6 soldiers. Here is a short film clip of the actual attack taking place.

Norwegian rape victim feels guilty because his rapist was deported back to...Somalia.

(Norway) Male Socialist Left Party politician Karsten Nordal Hauken, from Ås, Akershus, was raped by a Somali asylum seeker in his own home and the perpetrator was caught, jailed for 4.5 years and then deported back to Somalia.

Mr Hauken admits that the attack troubled him , that he started abusing with alcohol and cannabis and that his life fell apart after he was shown the love that only men can express. So you’d think that on hearing that the rapist was deported back to the motherland, Mr Hauken would be happy. Nah! He opened up to Norwegian state broadcaster NRK

“I felt relief and happiness that he would be gone forever. I felt like the Norwegian State had taken responsibility to carry out the ultimate revenge, like an angry father confronting it's child's attacker. 'But I also had a strong feeling of guilt and responsibility. I was the reason that he would not be in Norway anymore, but rather sent to a dark uncertain future in Somalia -I see him mostly like a product of an unfair world, a product of an upbringing marked by war and despair.”

American Nazis complains about being treated as garbage.

(US)  Isidore Heath Campbell passion is….Adolf Hitler. So much so he named his son after the leader of the Nazis party and his daughter after Hitler’s wife Eva Braun. He named his other free children, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation,  Honzlynn Jeannie and Heinrich Hons - named after Hitler’s right-hand man, Heinrich Himmler. Maybe that explains why the authorities have taken away his children.

He also sports tattoos of the Nazis swastika on his neck and on his arm. And attended court in which to contest the custody of his children dressed in full Nazis uniform, yes it appears that Campbell is a Nazis short of a Reich.

Well, with so much going for him, Campbell has opined on TV that actually he is the victim, but the thing is the loser isn’t alone , there’s a whole bunch of misfits on this TV program who feel that the Nazis way of life is the only way. 

The thing is, the new order would ship all these pure people off for a shower if they had their way. Unbelievable. Anyway here's my favourite American Nazis video clip.

Just what is it about African leaders and their infinity for corruption.

(South Africa) Jacob Zuma the South African president is under pressure to resign. It seems that having getting caught out spending government money (tothe tune of £11 million) on improving his somewhat palatial home and then refusing a court order to repay the redirected funds has seen him lose lots of support. But then he didn't win himself any support with his address to the country over the above:

 Zuma said his response to a report by public protector Thuli Madonsela ordering him to repay some of the money was “in good faith” but based on unsound legal advice. “I wish to emphasise that I never knowingly or deliberately set out to violate the constitution,”

Whilst that alone would be enough to sink most peoples careers , Zuma has now been hit with another scandal to explain and that is his associationwith the Gupta family who have been accused of exploiting their relationship with the president to choose pliable candidates for top cabinet and business jobs in a scandal that came to light after the country’s respected finance minister, Nhlanhla Nene, was abruptly sacked in December.

The Gupta family emigrated from India in 1993, seeking business opportunities in post-apartheid South Africa, and now preside over a wide range of corporate interests from mining to IT and media. Their close ties to Zuma, whose son sits on the board of at least six Gupta-owned companies, and extravagant lifestyle have drawn criticism before, perhaps most memorably when they used an air force base to fly in guests for a private wedding.

There was a vote in parliament in which to get Zuma to resign, but the ANC  for some very strange reason (Lots of government funding perhaps) kept him in, by getting itsMPs to vote to keep their man in.

The thing is Zuma never has been clean , in fact I wroteabout the crook in 2008 citing lots of examples. But hey I am talking about Africa where robbing the country blind  and blaming the west for the reason why Africans are so poor is written into the DNA of each and every politician 

Swiss School allows Islamic boys to not shake hands with female teachers.

(Therwil) As a child growing up, I was taught by my Mother, that nobody was better than me and that, I was better than nobody else. It’s an adage, I’ve subscribed to ever since. Probably, why I get on with nearly everybody I meet. It costs nothing to be nice.

For years now, minorities have demanded for the right to be treated the same as everybody else, the thing is , in this day and age, where equality is written into law, we now find that certain people are demanding for the right to be…different.

In Switzerland , a school has afforded the right to a couple of young Islamic boys the right not to shake hands with female teachers, because according to their religion, they are forbidden not to touch females who are not family. Well, that decision hasn’t gone well with the vast majority of the country , who quite rightly expressed their displeasure. Felix Mueri, the head of the Swiss parliament's education commission, said the decision sent out the wrong message. "Today's it's the handshake and what will it be tomorrow?"

Islamic groups also disagreed with the school's response. The Swiss Federation of Islamic Organisations  has pointed out that there is no reference in the Koran that justifies a refusal to shake a woman teacher's hand. They also urged the Swiss not to give in to extremist demands.

In giving in to the demands of a select few, this school, washes away all the hard work undertaken by others in which to afford females equality of the sexes.  The irony here is, the people who afford extra rights to minorities in the West, are usually champions of Human rights, yet in allowing others to be different , they not only set back human rights, but they trample over people (In this case women) in which to be seen as politically correct.

Intolerance crowd offended by French Magazine 'Charlie Hebdo' saying : Ordinary Muslims contributed to a climate in which the Brussels bombings took place.

(Paris)  It appears that those people who find fault in anything and everything, have found their cause of the week. 'Charlie Hebdo' the French satirical magazine which was thescene of a murderous Islamic gun attack in January 2015 has been lambasted by the ethical latte brigade for suggesting in an editorial  How Did We End Up Here?, Published eight days after attacks at Brussels’ airport and metro system killed more than 30 people. It said a fear of being seen as Islamophobic had inhibited the public from questioning or objecting to facets of Islam. The editorial began by listing several mooted explanations for the Brussels attacks, including police incompetence, youth unemployment, immigration and growing Islamism. But, it went on: “In reality, the attacks … are the last phase of a process of cowing and silencing long in motion and on the widest possible scale.” It singled out the recent appearance at Sciences Po, the elite Paris Institute of Political Studies, of the Islamic scholar Tariq Ramadan. “His task, under cover of debate, is to dissuade people from criticising his religion in any way. The political science students who listened to him last week will, once they have become journalists or local officials, not even dare to neither write nor say anything negative about Islam.”

Of course faster than you can say “Is the Pope a Catholic?” Faux outrage has raised its head. Idiots who continue to try and spread the message that ‘Islam is a religion of Peace’ have tried to compare the situation in Europe with what happened to the Jews during the 1930. (The last I looked Jews weren't going around attacking airports, bus stations and murdering people in their hundreds (Europe that is) over a cartoon or even against fascists)

The thing is, when was the last time you saw a huge Islamic march down the middle of any city in the Western world where they protested against the idiots in their midst?  Hundreds of protests against the US,UK or Israel, protests against banning the hijab, arresting a terrorist , or even a cartoon. But any protests against FGM, honour killing or these murderous gun attacks .NO. That tells me all I need to know about peaceful Islam and how, until they do start openly condemning the religious bigotry written into the DNA of Islam , then the vast majority of Muslims are complicit in the ugliness that Islam has brought to Europe. But what is worse and which the article points out, is how any form of discussion of Islam is silenced as been...Islamophobic.

IS idiot in charge of Missiles, taken out by US UAV strike.

(Iraq) The bearded thug in charge of Islamic states Rocket forces Jasim Khadijah, a former Iraqi officer who was not considered a high-value target, was killed in an UAV strike last night after his name kept coming up as the person behind a missile strike on a US position inside Iraq which killed US Marine Staff Sergeant Louis Cardin. But that changed after he got lucky and unfortunately for him, he then got unlucky. I'm sure that those 68 virgins are looking forward to service him when he arrives, I wonder if he knows they are all blokes, of course he does:

Syria: al-Nusra Front leader, Abu Firas, killed by airstrike.

(Damascus)  The Syrian Government (but Russian led) campaign to win back the country, took another terrorist scalp today when it was reported that Abu Firas al-Suri a  prominent member of the al-Nusra Front, linked to the Syrian Al Qaeda, has been killed in an air strike alongside at least 20 other militants, according to The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. The terrorist , his son and other foreign jihadists were killed in a strike in the village of Kafr Jales,  

Abu Firas was a founding member of al-Nusra Front who fought in Afghanistan in the 1980s and was a senior member of its Shura Council. He is also understood to have worked with Osama bin Laden.

Conflict erupts between Azerbaijan and Armenia

(Caucasus)  After years of building up her armed forces Islamic Azerbajan struck her renegade Christian province of  Nagorno-Karabakh, which ceded from Empire when the Soviet Union broke up and sided with Christian Armenia. yesterday, with both sides claiming success by the killing (doubtful) of hundreds of the otherside soldiers and with bothsides playing the victim :
Azerbaijan with a report of a school getting shelled. However all that withstanding more credible casualties figures  have now been reported as 18 ethnic-Armenian troops having died, while Azerbaijan said it had lost 12 troops.

As the terrain is somewhat mountainous, the advantage does lie with Armenia which is defending , but Azerbaijan does have the most bigger and much more modern military. So what has caused this latest shin dig? Well below is a most informative video from Al-Jazeera which looks in most dark corners of the geo-political map, but one thing nobody has mentioned is the fact that after years of heavy military spending , Baku cut the military budget in January by 40%  i suppose now that budget won't be getting cut now will it?

So why is the enclave so contentious? The region Nagorno-Karabakh belonged to Armenia when the Bolsheviks annexed the region in 1921 Stalin (The commissar in charge) placed Nakhchivan ASSR and Karabakh under Azerbaijani control to try to placate Turkey to join the Soviet Union. (Nakhchivan is the Azerbaijan region on the otherside of Armenia on the map above). When the Soviet Union broke up around 1991, the locals decided that they didn't want to live under the jackboot of Islamic Azerbaijan , but rather with their rightful family in Armenia, as Baku wouldn't have any of that, one of the bloodiest wars of the time (funny how the world only had eyes for Bosnia and Iraq at the time) kicked off (20-30,000 dead) Armenia ended up wining and the 7% of Azerbaijan territory (Which they had occupied for 70 years ) went back to Armenia.

UK: British Muslim found guilty of planning terrorist attack on US troops.

(London) 25 year old Junead Khan worked as a delivery driver for Alliance Healthcare (A UK chemist) He found to his horror that he actually had to drive past US bases in the UK and so offended was he by having to endure this affront to his honour. He got in contact with a friend of his, who had upped sticks and buggered off to fight for Allah in Syria for advice and he sent him plans to build a pressure cooker bomb and then in conjunction with his 23 year old uncle Shazib Khan,(Whom I can only presume was his brother, father and mother too) he planned to fake a traffic incident outside a base, then in the confusion that followed behead an American soldier, the bomb was there to target the first responders .

Junead Khan (left) and his uncle Shazib Khan.

Well, thankfully this village idiot was arrested before he got to utter ‘Allah ackba’ and today he and his uncle were found guilty and will be sentenced on a later date to bending over in the Prison showers and getting to utter ‘Allah ackba’ as his Mullah unzips his sermon. (Usually along the lines of “This is going to hurt me , more than it is going to hurt you”)

Oh and that contact in Syria? Why Junaid Hussain got to meet a Hellfire missile a few weeks after the authorities arrested Khan. 

UK: Man jailed for the first case of domestic servitude

(London) A man who treated his wife as a slave and subjected her to an existence of “violence, intimidation, aggression and misery” has been jailed following a pioneering trial which saw him become the first Briton convicted of forcing their spouse into domestic servitude 34 year old Safraz Ahmed subjected Sumara Iram to “physical and mental torture” after she came to the UK from Pakistan in late 2012 for an arranged marriage into which she entered willingly and with initially high hopes, Woolwich crown court was told.

The abuse began after British-born Ahmed brought his bride over from Pakistan to the UK in December 2012 - having agreed to an arranged marriage in the country in 2006. The first attack followed the couple's second official wedding ceremony in February 2013, when Ahmed reacted angrily at being asked to consummate their marriage, prosecutor Caroline Haughey told Woolwich Crown Court. 'He slapped her across the face and called her a whore, a bitch and a shameless woman,' she said. In his words, he told her he had married her so she could look after his mother and his house.' She was imprisoned, beaten and forced to carry out chores from 5am until midnight each day, leading her to try to take her own life by taking an overdose of painkillers.

She was required to cook, clean, wash, iron and look after other people's children, and if this work was not done to his standard, she was regularly beaten.

Wife beater ahmed

On one occassion, a next door neighbour called police to the home after seeing her 'standing in the street in clothing inappropriate for the time of year', 'She was dragged back in the house by her hair,' she continued. 'She had a black eye resulting from damage to her nose. The doctors said it was more serious than a fracture and she required surgery.' As he dragged her bleeding back into the house a neighbour, heard him say, 'I'm going to kill you. I'm going to fucking kill you'.

Ms Iram,  lived with Ahmed and her mother in their four-bedroom home where they were frequently visited by his large family. Ms Iram, who could not speak English, was forced to act as their skivvy and was told it was too dangerous for her to go out, saying black and white men would rape, kidnap or murder her.  The 28-year-old victim raised the alarm herself by calling 999 in August 2014. Ms Iram told police that she had effectively been kept as a domestic servant or slave at a house in Elliscombe Road, Charlton where Ahmed lived with other members of his family, including his mother.

She was required to cook, clean, wash, iron and look after other people's children, and if this work was not done to his standard, she was regularly beaten.

In her victim imapct statement, Iram said: “Because the beatings happened regularly and for such small things I felt worthless. I was not allowed to do what I wanted to do, I was never allowed to step out of the house alone and I was not allowed to make friends, which means I was never allowed to socialise; I felt like their prisoner.

For his crimes Ahmed was jailed for 2 years, his family who no doubt were complicit walked away free.  Just what is it about British Pakistanis and their hostile attitudes to women?

US; Black lives matter, but only if the shooter is a white Police officer.

(Georgia)  As a child I watched the film "In the Heat of the Night" which laid bare for all to see the intolerance, bigot and racism that black people faced in the southern states of the United States. 

As a rule, the lot of Black people has got much better since 1967, in fact I'd say a lot better. However acts of racism still exist, yet if I was to listen only to the 'Black lives matter' crowd, I'd walk away thinking that life in the US. is worse than that depicted above by Sidney Poitier. (If you have 9 mins, well worth watching) But the truth be told that actually more blacks die at the hands of their fellow blacks than anything else and I hear very little about that, but when a Police officer takes down somebody up to no good,  why then its a human rights crime. Case to note.

20 year old Craigory Burch Jr won the lottery last Novermber. On the evening of Jan 20th 2016. 3 masked and armed men invaded the house he shared with his Girlfriend and 3 children and demanded  money.  Burch begged the suspects not to shoot and offered to give them his wallet and bank card. he said, 'Don't do it bro. Don't do it in front of my kids,'"  But shoot they did and they left the house with nothing., other than taking an innocent life.

Today the Police have charge several people with Burches murder. All 7 are black, and I have yet to see one nationwide protest regards this murder in the name of ‘Black lives matter.’

Rosalyn Swain, 22, Earnest Holcomb, 27, Wayan Jordon, 17, Anjavell Johnson, 21, Dabrentise Overstreet, 19, and Keyana Dyous, 24

The only thing I can see is that Black lives only matter , when the person shot is up to no good and the shooter is a white policeman.  If the Black community (At a stroke you expose the self-imposed division by having a separate black community) wants to be treated fairly, then they have to treat all crime the same.

Germany: Afghan refugee murders teacher

(Celle|) A 58 year old Afghan refugee who arrived in Germany with his wife and 6 children, murdered a 52 year old teacher who was helping immigrants integrate, because he claimed that the 52 year old teacher wanted to marry his daughter.

The victim of the crime was of Iranian origin and had met the Afghani family in a nearby migrant camp where he had volunteered his time to help people he thought were in desperate need. Coming from a migrant background he likely felt a kinship with those fleeing from their countries. He also worked as an interpreter  and befriended many migrants at the camp. He even let many migrants stay at his house while they were looking for accommodation outside the migrant camp.

The prosecution maintains that so far there is no evidence beyond the word of the accused, that the 55-year-old teacher had any interest in his daughter sexual or otherwise. The teacher worked at a nearby high school in Celle and was said to be very popular among the students. The school held a large memorial service on school grounds that was well attended. The teacher’s body was flown to Iran where he was buried in Tehran in early March. It was his wish to be buried in the presence of his family and friends.

US: Female victim of Islamophobia...I made it up

(New York) A 20 year old Middle Eastern beauty student reported to the police that she was harnessed by a male on Thursday, who called her a terrorist and then slashed her face leaving a 2 inch gash on her cheek.  

The victim claimed she was walking down Broadway at around 1620 local time when the attack took place. Police were a little confused as the attack would have taken place during rush hour and nobody saw anything. Going back to the victim, she admitted to making up the whole story.

Islamic school in UK investigated for 'promoting extremism'

(England) A private Islamic school in the West Yorkshire town of Dewsbury has been found to promote extreme examples of Islam which are simply not comparable with life in the UK.

Islamic Tarbiyah Academy which teaches around 140 primary school children been accused of teaching children that British customs are ‘poisonous’ and that Jews are trying to take over the world.

An investigation by Sky News has found the school has compiled a leaflet which quotes the (fabricated) Protocols of Zion, an anti-Semitic document that claims Jews are engaged in a global conspiracy. These claim claimed films, magazines and celebrities are part of the conspiracy to ‘poison the minds’ of young Muslims. Other leaflets said all mixed-sex institutions are evil, warned Muslims not to adopt British customs, banned watching TV and told women not to work. In a section on jihad, young Islamic children are told they should be prepared to ‘expend ... even life’ to create a world organised by ‘Allah’s just order’.

Of course this is Islam I am talking about, so naturally they have come out with:

“Certain extracts from our publications have been taken and misrepresented to link the Academy with extremism. We fully believe in the importance and need of integration whilst being able to practise our faith.”

Really, here are a few examples taken from those leaflets Sky news (And not the authorities exposed)

The question the authorities in the area have to ask, is why has have the media exposed this, when the towns Islamic schools came under the spotlight only last year on the very same subject.

Muslim boarding school rated 'good' by Ofsted threatens toexpel pupils for mixing with 'outsiders'

and where the Islamic ghetto in Saville Town (600 metres from Dewsbury town hall) openly grieved the death of one of its young boys when he carried out  a suicide attack for ISIS inside Iraq only 10 months ago.

Canada: Pick and choose what parts of Canadian citizenship you want.

(Ottawa)  There's a growing trend inside Canada of people who have immigrated there and then when applying for Canadian citizenship have objected to certain parts of the oath.

Which brings me to Lorraine Harrilal –Minutes after being sworn in she broke away from her group to carry out her first act as a Canadian citizen, handing a letter to the officiating judge that recanted 25 of the 43 words she had just recited. Her issue was not with the part of the oath that swears to obey the laws of Canada or fulfil her duties as a citizen. Rather she was disavowing the promise to “be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Queen of Canada, Her Heirs and Successors”. In her letter, she explained why. “I regard it as an unnecessary allegiance to an institution that is the antithesis of democracy, while emblematic of hereditary, parasitic oligarchy.” Similar scenes have played out across the country in recent months, as a small but determined group of naturalised Canadians rebel against the oath to the Queen required of all new Canadian citizens.

Jeez , can you imagine these people going to live in the wonderful paradise of Iran and then asking that they object to  the parts about allah. It seems that a large number of the current batch of immigrants (the world over) feel that they can dictate to their new countries how it is going to be. if Mizz Harrilal doesn't like certain aspects of becoming a Canadian, why the hell is she bothering living there.

UK: Ronnie Corbett has died aged 85

(UK)  The British comedian Ronnie Corbett who brought much pleasure to the masses with his humour (usually in conjunction with Ronnie Barker) has sadly died today at the age of 85. Here are a few video clips on how he made people laugh, with well written humour rather than the current British penchant for coarse political language. A huge loss for the world, Why?, as we need more humour rather than hate.
