“Free Palaestina”: Migrants destroy Israeli flag in Vienna and post it on TikTok
In a TikTok video, the destruction of an Israeli flag in the Aspern district of Vienna is recorded with amusing background music. Shockingly, the reactions are almost exclusively positive. “Cool action”, “Free Palestine” and “Respect” can be read in the comments.
The TikTok video by “Aldin.98” shows two youths climbing a flagpole at the “Campus of Religions” in the Aspern district of Vienna. Together they tear at an Israel flag until it is completely torn and destroyed.
The video is soundtracked by cheerful music and is commented as well. “Just like Tarzan,” the creator of the video praises the two youths. The comments underneath are also quite positive. The two perpetrators are called “lions” and “men of honour” in this video document of imported anti-Semitism.
Mayor Ludwig ( Social Democratic Party of Austria) commented on the incidents on Twitter. However, he could not yet say from which direction or what motive the hatred of Israel originated. “The act of vandalism that occurred at the construction site of the “Campus of Religions” is intolerable to me. The responsible authorities have been informed and are investigating.” The Campus of Religions, which is to be built by 2023, “is to stand for peaceful coexistence in the future and emphasise Vienna’s role as a city of peace”.

Austrian integration expert reveals: Syrians are not fleeing from war, but from conscription
Minister of the Interior Karner ( Austrian People’s Party) presented the new online campaign against illegal migration today. The Syrian integration expert Rasha Corti also had her say. “The main reason for the migration of Syrian men to Europe is conscription. Syria is now almost completely pacified.
At a press conference on Tuesday morning, Interior Minister Karner presented the new online “counter-campaign” to combat traffickers. In the campaign, people are warned on various channels such as Telegram, Facebook, but also through advertisements in their mother tongue not to make their way to Europe.
“No way, no chance,” Karner described the campaign, which is placed via Google and other sites for people interested in migration from countries such as India, Tunisia or Pakistan, warning of the hardships of the journey and the machinations of the smuggling industry to the EU. In July, the most applications were made by Indians, followed by North African countries of origin and Pakistan, he said. “These people actually have zero per cent chance of staying and must be repatriated,” the interior minister said.
Rasha Corti, member of the Integration Council, also warned against the trafficking mafia. “People are left alone for days without food and drink”. She described the situation in her home country Syria as “mostly pacified”.
She warned of “former IS fighters who have been coming to Europe for years”. The main reason for migration for many young men is now not war, but national conscription. Although it is possible to buy oneself out of this obligation by paying 7,000 euros, more and more men are refusing to do so – and prefer to leave the country for Europe.
“But the majority of Syrians who have fled come for economic reasons,” says Rasha Corti. Nevertheless, Syrian citizens still have a high chance of a positively completed asylum application in Austria. Other reasons for migration to Austria, she says, are high unemployment in the countries of origin and health reasons. “
Corti also criticised the ambitions of some EU countries (such as Germany), which “hold out the prospect of automatically receiving a legal residence title after three years of illegal residence in the country”. This would “encourage thousands to set off”.

Wind turbines emit highly dangerous climate-destroying gas, with Germany the worst polluter in Europe
While Germany races to build wind farms, there is cause for concern, with a chemical identified as the strongest greenhouse gas in the world being emitted from wind turbines.
In fact, measurements of the air over Germany have already identified the country as the worst offender in Europe when it comes to the highly dangerous substance sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). The chemical is used in the manufacturing of wind turbines and escapes into the environment. With Germany the leader in wind turbine use in Europe, scientists say this is the major factor behind the exceptionally high levels of SF6 readings in Germany.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, SF6 is a climate killer. In fact, it is 26,087 times more harmful to the climate than carbon dioxide.
Sulfur hexafluoride is a gas that industrial companies consider to be the perfect insulator, and while banned by many other manufacturing sectors, it is still widely used in wind turbines, mainly in electronic switchgears, i.e., the “nodes” in which the electrical energy is distributed. When there is little space to work with, such inside wind turbines, the gas provides excellent insulation while allowing extra space for vital machinery and parts.
Once this substance enters the atmosphere, it takes more than 3,000 years for SF6 to decompose again and become inert, according to a report from German media outlet Taggeschau.
It has been known for decades how dangerous the substance is. As early as 1997, the Kyoto Protocol stipulated that emissions of SF6 must be limited. Although it has been phased out, it is still permitted in electronic switchgear, and there are no legal restrictions for its usage in this area. Industry instead made a voluntary commitment to reduce its usage, to use it in closed systems, and to recycle and neutralize it at the end of its practical use. The 1998 commitment also stipulated that companies would record and report how much they use and recycle.
However, this is clearly not happening. In fact, Germany is violating this stipulation on a massive scale, and the atmospheric data proves it. According to Taggeschau, scientists report that there is that SF6 levels are 50 percent higher than the current emission data provided by industry would suggest. This shows strong evidence that Germany is emitting more sulfur hexafluoride than is being reported.
SF6 is not only hazardous for the climate, but also extremely dangerous for humans, as it impedes the exhalation of carbon dioxide. For those who inhale SF6, they may suffer from carbon dioxide narcosis and respiratory arrest.
When ARD-funded business magazine Plusminus asked the two biggest manufacturers of wind turbines about the elevated levels of SF6, Nordex and Vestas responded that there is no alternative. They claim that only small amounts of SF6 escape into the air and ensure that proper disposal of the chemical is carried out at the end of the turbine’s service life.
However, there is strong evidence that partly refutes their claims, and that has to do with the fact that the companies are not personally responsible for recycling the wind turbines. Instead, the individual owners who purchase the turbines are responsible, and there is no control in place to ensure they dispose of the products properly. It is in fact much more cost-effective to simply allow the chemical to escape into the environment.
The EU does not plan to ban the gas until 2030. There is currently a vacuum tube system from Siemens that does not use the chemical, but it is rarely used in wind turbines.
Germany: “Palestinian” tears down Israeli flag
In Upper Franconia, a young man tore down an Israeli flag and stomped on it.
It is assumed that the act was deliberately politically motivated, said a police spokesperson. The man had deliberately chosen the Israeli flag among the many flags waving at Bayreuth’s Luidpoldplatz and wanted to damage it.
According to the police, the stateless 20-year-old is from the “Palestinian territories occupied by Israel”.
According to the police report, the man first climbed the flagpole on Friday, tore down the flag and then trampled on it. A witness observed the act, chased him and alerted the police.
The officers charged the 20-year-old with violating flags and national emblems of foreign states. According to a police spokesperson on Monday, there are no indications of a mental state of emergency.
It was not known whether the man had already had criminal convictions.
Germany: Three dark-skinned men tried to rape woman at folk festival
From August 17 to September 4, the annual folk festival Weindorf will take place on the market square in front of the city hall of the state capital Stuttgart and attract numerous visitors. After two years of forced break due to the coronavirus, people are now celebrating again and drinking plenty of wine. On Saturday morning ( August 20), however, there was almost a sexual assault there if an attentive employee had not intervened.
According to the police in Stuttgart, a 21-year-old employee of the Stuttgart Weindorf noticed noises behind a container on the market square at around 01.15 am. When he checked, he discovered three young men bending over a 28-year-old woman lying on the ground and tampering with her trousers.
The employee approached the three men, whereupon they fled in the direction of Schlossplatz. Thanks to his courageous intervention, the 21-year-old was able to prevent worse. He then called the police, who couldn’t detect the perpetrators after an immediate manhunt. The police are now asking for witnesses.
The three men who fled are between 25 and 30 years old, according to the police statement. They are 170 to 175 centimetres tall and have a dark complexion. One of the perpetrators was dressed in a black jumper, the second in a yellow T-shirt and light blue jeans. The third was dressed in black shorts and a black T-shirt. Tips can be supplied by calling 0711/89905778.
Germany: Dark-skinned man molests and gropes girl on dirt road
Police are looking for an unknown man who sexually harassed a 14-year-old girl on a dirt road in Mönchengladbach.

Where language goes to die: ‘Trans women are biological women’
By Eric Utter
Eli Erlick identifies as “Extremely queer & incredibly trans.” (As opposed to relatively queer and common, garden-variety trans, I guess.) Erlick is also fond of using social media platforms to declare that “transgender women” are actually women. Period.
One of Erlick’s tweets states: “Trans women are natural women. Trans women are normal women. Trans women are biological women. Trans women are born women. Trans women are women.”
No they aren’t, or they wouldn’t be “trans.” They would not have had to transition. This should be self-evident, a priori.
In another tweet, Erlick proclaimed: “The only inherent difference between trans women and cis women is that trans women were assigned male by a doctor. Trans is an adjective that describes that assignment.”
Paraphrasing Hillary Clinton, if that’s the case, what difference, at this point, does the word “difference” make? Or “biological”? (“Bi-illogical”?) Used like this, they have been stripped of their meaning, rendered moot.
For that matter, the prefix “cis” is nonsensical, too. Cis-fill-in-the-blank is the same as whatever filled in the blank, so in using it, we are just wasting a word and confusing people.
If a “woman” can have a penis, there is no reason she can’t have an elephant’s trunk — or ivory tusks and a tail. And pigs can have wings, and I can identify as a sheepdog.
I mean, trans sheepdogs are natural sheepdogs. Trans sheepdogs are normalsheepdogs. Trans sheepdogs are biological sheepdogs. Trans sheepdogs areborn sheepdogs. Trans sheepdogs are sheepdogs. The only inherent difference between trans sheepdogs and cis sheepdogs is that trans sheepdogs were assigned human by a doctor at birth. Trans is simply an adjective that describes that arbitrary assignment.
Right?
It is time we all wake up, shake off the woke spell we have succumbed to…and transition to grown-ups.
If our society is to avoid collapse, we must jettison belief in a “trans reality” and instead embrace cis reality. We must abandon pursuit of “trans truth” — and seek the truth. Period.
And some truths are remarkably easy to see. Like the difference between men and women, for example.
Thank God.
