On Monday, the Maharashtra Police arrested a person named Mohammad Iqbal Sheikh for murdering his wife in the Tilak Nagar area of Mumbai. Sheikh’s wife, a Hindu by religion, was reportedly murdered for refusing to wear burqa and follow Islamic rituals and practices.
According to a report published by Aaj Tak, the victim Rupali and the accused had been married for three years and had a son to look after. The duo, however, were not living together due to the ongoing domestic scuffle between them. The incident is said to have happened on the evening of Monday, September 26 when Sheikh met his wife and forced her to follow Islamic rituals and practices. When she refused to give in to his diktats, he took a sharp knife and slit her throat before fleeing from the spot.
Deceased Rupali was Iqbal’s second wife. The accused had divorced his first wife as she could not conceive a child. The accused then trapped the Hindu victim in a love affair and got married to her three years ago. Reports mention that the accused used to force Rupali to wear a burqa and follow Islamic rituals and practices soon after the two got married.
The duo used to scuffle over the issue after Rupali refused to wear a burqa. Fed up by the daily arguments, the victim decided to separate from Iqbal and started to live alone with her son. On Monday, Iqbal went to meet Rupali to convince her to return home with their son. He also forced her to wear a burqa and follow Islamic rituals.
Amid the heated argument, Rupali then urged for divorce which enraged the accused. He pulled her tight and then slit her throat with a sharp knife. Locals from the Tilak Nagar area gathered as the victim screamed in pain. They later informed the police who arrived at the spot for investigation.
The accused had fled from the spot after the locals gathered. However, the police managed to arrest him. During the investigation, the sister of the victim confirmed that the accused used to force Rupali to follow Islamic rituals and wear a burqa. The Police are interrogating the accused and are further investigating the case.
Two police officers were attacked and threatened in Carpentras late on Sunday afternoon. A 25-year-old woman pointed a pistol at them in the street. The police officers kept cool and were able to arrest the woman, who suffers from a mental disorder.
The young woman pulled a pistol out of her pocket when she saw the two police officers from Carpentras. The woman, who is from Monteux, shouted “Allah Akbar” and then threatened to “shoot” the police officers.The Carpentras police officers had their service weapons drawn but kept cool. Fortunately, no shots were fired. The young woman is known to have mental health problems and one of the policemen discovered a broken part on the alarm pistol. The police officers negotiated with the young woman to calm her down and then took her to the police station. The young woman had been using drugs. She was forcibly admitted to a psychiatric hospital after her police custody. www.francebleu.fr
For the AfD, things are going splendidly. According to a survey by the opinion research institute Insa, it is now the strongest force in East Germany. The trend is seen nationwide. On the other hand, the once-popular ministers Karl Lauterbach and Robert Habeck (Greens) have imploded.
If there were to be elections held next Sunday, the AfD would obtain 27 percent in the East. The CDU followed with one point less. The SPD and the Greens only get 15 and 14 percent respectively. The FDP only achieved 7 percent while the Left came to 8 percent.
Even in western Germany, the AfD now averages 12 percent. Here the Union (28 percent), Greens (21) and SPD (19) are ahead, with the FDP (8) and Left (5) behind. In Lower Saxony, where elections will be held on October 9, the AfD is polling at 9 percent according to infratest dimap.
A total of 15 percent of all Germans would vote for the AfD – only three points behind the chancellor’s SPD party.
When asked about the most popular politicians, the results for Economics Minister Robert Habeck and Health Minister Karl Lauterbach were a disaster. Lauterbach is in tenth and last place. Just ahead of him: Habeck, who recently led the ranking. Annalena Baerbock owes her better spot in the same stakes to her popularity in the West.
President of Leicester’s ISKCON temple Pradyumna Das making a statement after Leicester violence
The perversion that played out in Leicester against the Hindu community and the subsequent conduct of the media, the UK police, politicians who rose to fame on the backs of diaspora Hindus and certain Hindus themselves have left one with a lot to ponder. That Islamists went on a rampage against Hindus and then hijacked the narrative to paint themselves as victims, aided by a traditionally spineless and deracinated British media comes as no surprise. While Leicester Hindus stood up for their Dharma valiantly in the face of grievous provocation, violence, and propaganda, amidst the unexpected heroes made in the face of adversity, Leicester also exposed a sore wound that the Hindu community has battled for long.
After days of Islamist violence and hate directed at the Hindu community, on the 20th of September, the president of the Iskcon Hindu temple of Leicester issued a statement, surrounded by Muslim “leaders” and Imams of the Jame Mosque. Reading out the joint statement outside a mosque, President of Leicester’s ISKCON temple Pradyumna Das said, “This is a statement of unity between the Hindu and Muslim community. We, the family of Leicester stand in front of you, not only as Hindus and Muslims but as brothers and sisters. Our two faiths have lived harmoniously in this wonderful city for over half a century. We arrived in this city together. We faced the same challenges together.”
“We arrived in this city together. We face the same challenges together; we fought off racist haters together and collectively made this city a beacon of diversity and community cohesion,” the statement said. “That is why we are saddened and heartbroken to see the eruption of tension and violence. Physical attacks on innocent individuals and unwarranted damage to property are not part of a decent society and, indeed, not part of our faiths,” it added.
Pradyumna Das carried on and called for “inciters of violence and hate to leave Leicester alone” and that they “do not need to call upon assistance from outside the city”. “Leicester has no place for a foreign extremist ideology that causes division”, he said, while asking people to respect the sanctity of religious places, both mosques and mandirs.

Throughout this pathetic statement that muddled the truth, the Muslim leaders and Imams kept quiet, menacingly surrounding the Priest making this statement. The bonds of mythical brotherhood that this statement seems to be alluding to, was devastated the moment Muslims of Leicester attacked Hindus for passing by a “Muslim area”. The illusionary harmony was pierced the moment a temple was attacked. No amount of tiptoeing will dilute the fact that no Mosque was attacked by Hindus, contrary to the fake news that was spread by Islamists. While the Iskcon priest repeats ad nauseam that what happened in Leicester is not a part of their “faiths” (meaning Hinduism or Islam), the truth is, that every Islamist out there perpetuating violence is unequivocal on how this violence is indeed part of their faith and they can quote the verses better than anyone trying to de-hyphenate the two.
More than the blatant capitulating, what was far more disappointing was the Iskcon priest toeing the Islamist line while talking about “foreign extremist ideology that causes division”. Surely, Das was not talking about Islam because the Muslim community does not believe that any such division in their faith exists. Therefore, it is only fair to assume that Das was explicitly toeing the Islamist/Left media line, claiming that the violence by the Islamists was caused by the presence of “Hindutva forces” in Leicester, terming it a violent, foreign ideology.
These observations aren’t novel and this author is not the first to point them out. The only difference is that the Twitter handle of Iskcon can’t possibly censor my views as they did to several others who tweeted to them. There were hundreds of tweets that expressed discontent and rage over the statement by Das, which were “hidden” by the Iskcon handle. Here is an archived version of the responses they hid.
Over the past several days, I have personally written extensively on the Islamists who instigated violence against Hindus of Leicester, the conduct of the police and the media in shielding Islamists and how the Hindu community was standing up to blatant intimidation, however, as the dust settles, it is also important that the Hindu community looks inwards and realises that our dignified survival as a global community is impeded when cowering to bullies becomes the conditioned response of community leaders.
It is indeed a fact that most of the noise that was created on social media on Leicester came from India. The awareness that Hindus in Leicester were attacked would not have completely been possible had the Hindu community as a whole, from Leicester and from India, not come together to talk about the spate of Islamist violence. That itself brings forth the hollowness of the statement made by Das and a trope I have heard numerous times by Leicester community leaders (and a few diaspora Hindus) over the past few days – “This is a diaspora issue”.
Essentially, while Das, a Hindu himself, capitulated and ended up calling Hindutva a “foreign ideology”, some community leaders and diaspora Hindus reiterated, over and over again, that the Leicester violence was a “diaspora issue” and therefore, the nuances of how it should be talked about or how it should be handled, was something that Hindus in India might not fully comprehend. I concede – every region and the manner in which an issue is handled overall is going to certainly be different. However, the underlying malaise is far more serious. What several Hindus seem to have alluded to, including Das, is that the Islamists are only attacking Hindus who they believe are rooted in Hindutva, and therefore, by terming this a “foreign ideology” or calling the issue a “diaspora issue”, they wish to safeguard themselves by disassociating from the tags that the Left media and Islamists wish to thrust upon them. “You are attacking us because you believe we are rooted in Hindutva, that we support RSS and Indian PM Modi. But that is not true. So please spare us. We are brothers”, seems to be the narrative for some. When pointed out, in so many words, the defence that is mounted suggests, “This is a diaspora issue. We need to handle things differently. Hindus from India won’t understand”.
Again, while I understand that certain nuances only the locals who are under siege can understand, in the larger scheme of things, this strategy is not only useless in safeguarding the diaspora Hindus but also terribly endangers those Hindus who are speaking up for them, relentlessly. When they try and distance themselves, in whatever casual capacity, from Hindutva, the diaspora Hindus are essentially saying that Islamists are wrong in attacking them not because they don’t deserve to be attacked only because Islam treats them as Kafirs, but also because they don’t associate with this “foreign ideology”. In that sense, they only signal that those who do associate with the Hindutva ideology or support RSS/PM Modi are fair game as far as Islamist hate is concerned – they don’t say it explicitly, of course, but they unwittingly partake in the demonisation of Hindus globally.
One has to realise that Hindutva’s primary purpose was to concretely define the concept of nationhood around Hindu identity rather than along regional or caste identities. In a heterogeneous polytheistic society, it was not such an easy endeavour as various identities were regularly in conflict with each other. But for the polytheistic order to survive, Hindu society had to overcome such fault lines to sustain its continued existence. At its core, Hindutva is a reactionary ideology. It emerged as a reaction to a world order based on nation-states and the task of ensuring the political unity of the lands of India once the British left Centuries of conflict with invading ideologies made Hindu intellectuals acutely aware of the urgent need to ensure the political unity of the Hindu populace. Hindutva was the product of such endeavours and its purpose was explicit: To ensure that the whole of Hindu society lends its allegiance to a nation-state which would then protect and serve the interests of the Hindu social order – self-preservation is the foundational core of Hindutva – a principle that is the natural right of every indigenous people.
Instead of articulating why Hindutva as a concept is vastly different from political ideologies carved around Abrahamic faiths, several diaspora Hindus were seen trying to tacitly disassociate with that identity. The Islamists need to demonise Hindutva to use it as a euphemism to target Hindus and to create a boogey monster that they can use to dilute the frightful effect that Islamism as an ideology has globally. Hindus who aim to disassociate themselves with Hindutva, basically leave all Hindus vulnerable to be stereotyped and attacked with the attacks being justified just like the genocide of Jews was justified after Hitler cast them in a stereotypical stone.
At this point, a disclaimer becomes imperative. Not all diaspora Hindus do this. Many wear their faith proudly on their sleeve, however, when community leaders further this problematic narrative, one notices several other average Hindus follow suit because they believe this is the ultimate strategy for survival.
The truth is that the Hindus of Leicester were attacked because they were Hindus. Islamists are predisposed to look for polytheists and slay them wherever they find them. The only difference between a Delhi anti-Hindu riot and a Leicester is the fact that far more blood was spilt in Delhi and the nature of the euphemism used to target Hindus varied greatly. While in Delhi, they used CAA as an excuse to target Hindus, they used Hindutva, RSS and Modi as an excuse in Leicester – but euphemism it all is.
If certain diaspora Hindus and community leaders believe that disassociating themselves with Hindutva, RSS or Modi would save them today, tomorrow, they will have to disassociate with their temples, their faith, their core and eventually, their very Dharmic existence. That is the progression that Islamists will thrust down their throats. Today, Hindutva is “violent” and a procession from a “Muslim area” makes you liable to be attacked. Tomorrow, the existence of their temple and your house in a “Muslim area” will be used as an excuse. The day after, they will say that their existence as a polytheist is an affront to their faith and if they don’t give up their Dharmic existence, you will be responsible for their own genocide. We have seen this play out over and over again and history is replete with stories that remind us of this pattern.
No matter who the Hindus distance themselves from, they will always be a target for Islamists because it is their existence that they have a “beef with”, not particularly what they believe in or stand for. The diaspora Hindus might believe in the myth of brotherhood if only they can display their soft power, but survival is a messy business and truth, the cold truth, and its articulation, is at the heart of it.
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi too believed in what certain diaspora Hindus believe in today. He believed that his non-violent ways and soft cultural power would be enough to make the Mohammadans see the error of their ways. Today, Gandhi is considered and touted as one of the leading symbols of India’s soft power. Despite all of that, and despite the fact that he cowered to Islamist hate, treated Hindus as sacrificial lambs and is revered by the very perpetrators who want Hindus annihilated, he too would be cancelled someday because he was “too Hindu”.
As OpIndia CEO, Rahul Roushan often says, Gandhi’s idea of Hindu-Muslim unity, much like the ISKON priest, was turning a blind eye to the Malabar genocide of Hindus, blaming Swami Shraddhanand for his own murder by an Islamist and inserting Allah into Hindu bhajans with no reciprocation. However, Gandhi was indeed a Hindu. He spoke unabashedly about cow protection, the need to preserve traditional Hindu values, and the importance of temples in the Hindu society and while his counterparts, some of them, were busy talking against idol worship, Gandhi proudly wore his religion on his sleeve and never said anything against our polytheist ways. This is precisely why most Hinduphobes only use Gandhi to keep Hindus subjugated by talking about his ideas of extreme pacifism but would denounce him just as easily for being “too Hindu” – a phenomenon we are bound to see play out in the next few years, given the meteoric rise of Hindumisia.
Today, priests like Das may call Hindutva a “foreign ideology” and some diaspora Hindus may want to play nice by calling this a “diaspora issue” and capitulating to Islamists and Leftists, but that won’t shield them from Islamist hate. It may, for the time being, but they will forever remain idolaters who deserve to be annihilated. No matter who or what they disassociate with, the Left media will not understand their culture and certainly, not proclaim them the victims of sectarian violence even if the truth were to smack them in the face. The Muslim community functions on the principles of Ummah where a Muslim hurt, anywhere in the world, is the problem of every Muslim no matter where they geographically reside. The Jews, who have successfully managed to make the world aware of their own persecution would never denounce Israel or its “internal politics” for the sake of survival – an attack against a Jew is rightfully anti-semitism, no matter what euphemism is used. Hindus need to realise that as long as they function in their neatly crafted silos, they will alienate a community that is their only chance of survival.
To quote Sita Ram Goel, “The point that all of you are trying to make is that Hindus should not stand up and speak in defence of their own religion and culture, that Hindus should not try to analyse and understand the factors and forces in the field around them, in short, that Hindus should remain at the receiving end for all time to come. We are sorry we have to reject your advice”.
Italy’s election results were the main topic for many newspapers across the continent on Monday morning. Those on the left — by far the most numerous — sometimes bordered on hysteria, while those on the right — quite rare in Western Europe outside the sphere of alternative media — were delighted.
In France, Italy’s neighboring country where the mainstream media are particularly worried about the victory of the friends of Marine Le Pen, but also of Hungary’s Viktor Orbán and Poland’s PiS, it was the left-wing daily Libération that was the most hysterical the day after Giorgia Meloni’s victory.
Why is Giorgia Meloni labelled “post-fascist” by the Left?
Like many left-wing media in Europe, Libération describes Giorgia Meloni as a “post-fascist,” which is due to her political beginnings in the MSI, the Italian Social Movement, a neo-fascist social movement created by former fascists after the war (in 1946). It aimed to gather non-communist workers under its banner, and when Meloni entered politics aged 15 in 1992, it was no longer neo-fascist but more of a broad national-conservative political movement with many different tendencies. Representatives of the MSI were ministers in the government of Silvio Berlusconi in 1994, and Meloni herself was minister for youth from 2008 to 2011 in the fourth Berlusconi government. Since 2020, she has chaired the European Conservatives and Reformists group (which includes the Polish PiS and the Spanish liberal-conservative party Vox).
And so Giorgia Meloni, born in 1977, has no connection with fascism and has never identified herself with this ideology, while the center-left Partito Democratico (PD) has many proud former members of the Communist Party in its ranks.
France
Despite Meloni not having any connection to fascism, this does not prevent Libération from publishing the headline: “In Italy: with Giorgia Meloni, post-fascism in power.” The article published under this headline ends with the sentence: “The opposition, for its part, fears that Giorgia Meloni will lead the country down the path of illiberal democracies, following the example of Jaroslaw Kaczynski’s Poland or Viktor Orbán’s Hungary.”
An interview published on the same day by Libération bears the title: “General elections: ‘Italy has never really come to terms with its fascist past’.”
And Libération’s main correspondent writes that: “For the first time, one of the founding countries of the European Union will be governed by the far right. And it is not just any country, but one of the ‘big three’: Italy. The political shock is huge, since the construction of the European Union was launched in the aftermath of a world war for which the German and Italian fascists were responsible, in order to anchor democracy and put an end to narrow-minded nationalism and the conflicts it provoked. The probable appointment of Giorgia Meloni, the chairwoman of Fratelli d’Italia (FDI), an avowed post-fascist, therefore undermines the Union’s raison d’être.”
Unsurprisingly, the title of Jean Quatremer’s report refers to fascism too, as it reads: “Post-fascist Italy, a threat to European values.”
Meanwhile, the main title on left-wing Le Monde Monday morning was: “Elections in Italy: Giorgia Meloni and her post-fascist party Fratelli d’Italia win big,” with another article titled: “Elections in Italy: who is Giorgia Meloni, the young leader of the post-fascist party at the doors of power?”
Even on the website of France’s supposedly center-right daily Le Figaro ,the word “post-fascist” dominated on Monday Morning.
In a piece published by Le Figaro’s correspondent in Rome, whose title “Giorgia Meloni, a strong-willed woman who is widely supported in Italy” might let us think that Meloni and her party, which the paper labeled “national-conservative” instead of “post-fascist,” might be shown in a more positive light. However, the following excerpt shows this is far from reality:
“Her efforts to convince people that Fratelli d’Italia is a conservative party like any other cannot mask the fact that it is led by veterans of the Italian Social Movement (MSI), whose raison d’être, when it was created in 1946 on the ruins of fascism, was precisely to keep the flame alive. (…) the violence of her past accusations against ‘mass immigration,’ ‘gender ideology,’ the ‘Brussels bureaucrats’ or ‘big international finance’ is also troubling.”
Spain
The main title on Spain’s El País’ website on Monday morning was: “The far right wins elections in Italy for the first time.”
“The coalition of conservatives, post-fascists and populists, led by Giorgia Meloni, wins 44% of the votes in both the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate, with 97% of the votes counted,” El País wrote in an article.
“A political earthquake with the scent of a far-right consolidation in Europe shook Italy on Sunday,” writes El País, noting that: “Italians have voted decisively for the coalition of the right and the far-right — a political conglomerate that had not governed since Silvio Berlusconi’s last government, fallen in 2011 when Italy was on the verge of bankruptcy and Meloni was a precocious Minister of Youth.”
Meanwhile, center-right El Mundo’s main headline on Monday morning was: “Meloni’s hard right wins in Italy and shakes the European Union.” This article starts with the following words: “The right-wing has won the Italian elections and is poised to return to power after a decade. The vote, with a record abstention rate, has also opened the door for the hard right, that of Giorgia Meloni, to reach Palazzo Chigi for the first time in history, closing forever an era, the one that the Republic inaugurated on the pillar of anti-fascism with the ashes of the Second World War still smoldering.”
Germany
Germany’s Frankfurter Algemeine Zeitung (FAZ) did not make any reference to fascism in its main article on Meloni’s victory on Monday morning, choosing instead to stress how much Europe’s right-wing parties were rejoicing at the election results in Italy. It quotes political leaders from the German Alternative for Germany (AfD), the French National Rally (RN), and also Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, and, as a counterweight, German SPD Vice-President of the European Parliament Katharina Barley (the one who wanted to “financially starve” Poland and Hungary):
“Giorgia Meloni will be a prime minister whose political role models are Viktor Orbán and Donald Trump. The election victory of the alliance of right-center parties in Italy is therefore worrying, (…) Meloni’s ‘campaign of paying lip service for Europe’ cannot hide the fact that she poses a threat to constructive coexistence in Europe,” the paper writes.
Germany’s taxpayer-funded outlets also gave their take, with German public broadcaster Deutsche Welle (DW) writing: “Giorgia Meloni, leading a center-right coalition, is on track to become Italy’s first woman prime minister ever and its first far-right leader since Benito Mussolini.”
Very much like France’s Le Figaro, DW seems to think Meloni’s stance against the LGBT lobby, mass immigration, and big international finance is a clear sign that she does have some links to fascism:
“Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party is in an alliance with the anti-migrant League party of Matteo Salvini, as well as the center-right Forza Italia led by former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. Meloni campaigned on a motto of ‘God, country and family.’ The 45-year-old nationalist has downplayed her party’s post-fascist roots and sought to promote it as a mainstream conservative group. She has rejected accusations of being a fascist and increasingly toned down some of the more far-right rhetoric. However, in June, she railed against a so-called LGBT lobby, ‘mass immigration’ and ‘big international finance’.”
Poland
The Polish left-wing daily Gazeta Wyborcza enumerated on Monday the main wrongs of Meloni in their eyes (and in the eyes of the European Left):
“Meloni, like the leaders of the Law and Justice (PiS) party, Italy’s partner on the far right in the European Parliament, preaches the need to make the European Union a ‘Europe of nations,’ with the defense of the continent against non-European immigration and the defense of Christian identity being the means to achieve it. In an autobiography published a year ago, she charged that ‘the EU in its current form is an undefined identity in the hands of mysterious bureaucrats who would like to remove national identities.’ In her election campaign, she announced a return to the ‘traditional’ family model, a fight against the ‘LGTB lobby,’ and the education of young people through sports to address ‘youthful deviancy,’ among which she listed self-harm, bulimia, obesity and anorexia in addition to drugs, nicotine and gambling addictions. Women, meanwhile, were promised the right ‘not to have abortions.’ Fratelli d’Italia even criticized an episode of Peppa Pig for ‘promoting gender ideology’ in which one of the animals had two moms.”
Meanwhile, the reactions from Polish government circles were reproduced on the conservative daily Gazeta Polska Codziennie’s Niezalezna.pl website, under the title: “Law and Justice politicians on Italian elections: ‘Great victory’, ‘Bravo Italy! Democracy has won!’.”
Russian FM Sergei Lavrov meets the only EU Foreign Minister who insists on peace on the sidelines of the UN: Peter Szijjártó. Facebook
At the UN General Assembly in New York, Hungarian Foreign Minister Szijjártó made an interesting observation: Europe has long since lost the “race of narratives” in connection with the Ukraine war.
Europe’s narrative in connection with the war in Ukraine and the sanctions imposed because of it, does not interest the rest of the world.
Whatever the EU tries to put forward as being the exact causes of the negative effects to justify sanctions against Russia, is irrelevant, because countries only want to end them, explained Szijjártó on the opening day of this year’s UN General Assembly in New York.
In Europe and the US, a “communicative and political bubble” has emerged and they believe that the whole world thinks about this conflict as they do. But that is not the case.
The Hungarian foreign minister stressed that the armed conflict and the sanctions imposed in response to it were no longer affecting only Europe but the whole world, partly because of the rising cost of energy, food and fertiliser.
Szijjártó recommended that his EU partners put aside proposals that escalate the war, deepen the conflict and aggravate the situation, and finally start thinking about how to achieve peace in Ukraine.
‘European bubble’
It was very revealing to step out of the “European bubble”, because it immediately becomes clear that the vision of war that Brussels is pushing is not shared in most nations in the world, he said.
At the EU Foreign Affairs Council the previous day, he said, there had been talk of how to explain that it was the war itself that was causing the suffering in the world, not the anti-Russian sanctions imposed against it.
“But when you talk to non-European foreign ministers, it is clear that they are not interested in what we are saying, what exactly is causing their suffering, they only want it to stop,” he warned. “Peace is the solution to all the problems and serious challenges we face,” Szijjártó warned the UN General Assembly.
“I sincerely hope that at some point the European countries and the European Union itself will finally take measures that will not lead to an escalation or prolongation of the war, but will help to end it,” the politician added.
UN should provide platform for ending hostilities
He also pointed out that the UN General Assembly this week will be attended by almost all world leaders, even representatives of countries that are enemies will be able to meet.
There is no better and broader platform than the UN to discuss ending the war, he said. The minister also spoke out against new EU sanctions. “Europe suffers more than Russia from the restrictions imposed in response to the war in Ukraine, so the eighth sanctions package should be forgotten, as it would only deepen the difficulties,” the politician added.
On the sidelines of the Bled Strategic Forum in Slovenia earlier, he said, the aim should be on achieving peace as soon as possible, adding that this required direct dialogue between the warring sides. He suggested that respected countries and international players should play a mediating role between Ukraine and Russia. “Because if the policy of sanctions continues, if the developments continue to point in the direction of escalation, this will have a very harmful effect on central Europe, and we want to avoid that,” Szijjarto said.
Going nuclear
The current energy crisis in Europe significantly increases the importance of nuclear capacities. Nuclear energy capacities help ensure that a country in particular can defend itself from unreasonable and unpredictable changes in the international energy market, i.e. to protect its sovereignty.
Let’s cut to the chase. In order to “fundamentally transform” America from a vibrant and free capitalist society into just another communist hellhole, you first have to tear it down completely, following the Marxist mantra of “the ends justify the means.”
In order to achieve that, it would include uncontrolled spending to create massive debt that the country simply cannot sustain, thereby crashing the economy. People see their savings and bank accounts dwindle to nothing as a result of ever increasing inflation. Eventually finding themselves dependent on government handouts for their very survival.
In addition, open the borders and flood the country with illegal immigration, overwhelming the social welfare system that is put in place to provide help and support to Americans. Instead pass those resources onto those who illegally entered the country, justifying it all as a humanitarian gesture.
Create a ‘climate emergency’ and turn it into a clarion call for groups of people who are easily manipulated. Make energy independence a thing of the past, and Americans become more susceptible to the whims of other countries in providing the energy necessary to drive our country’s economy, and allow people to go to work, and to stay warm in the winter. Rolling power outages become the norm as electric services are purposefully disrupted, and people look to the government to solve the problems.
Normalize and ‘mainstream’ deviant behaviors and attack anyone or any group that supports traditional morality and traditional gender roles. Expose children and youths to the same deviancy, and take the teaching of morality out of the hands of parents. Also attack traditional religion, and infiltrate and change organized religions from within by corrupting traditional doctrine into something accepting, even applauding what was once considered sin.
Then you undermine civil authorities. Neuter and demoralize the police so that crime runs rampant on America’s streets. People become fearful in their own homes, and venture out only as a last resort. Once crime is out of control people become more willing to accept a strong government crackdown, including the loss of what were once considered sacrosanct Constitutional rights.
Also focus efforts on disarming the population so that they have no means of protecting themselves, or resisting government oppression. An unarmed society is much easier to control than a society where people can defend themselves against crime, and government overreach.
Make endless accusations against and demonize your political enemies, and cover up your own questionable and illegal activities. Accuse your opposition of racism and every kind of ‘phobia’ you can think of, with the help of a compliant news media that is under your complete control.
Weaken the military with arbitrary and meaningless social justice experiments, and spend less time training in actual war fighting capabilities. A demoralized military will experience retention problems of their most qualified and best leaders.
What’s going on is a multi-step process and has been well under way for decades now, but it kicked into high gear with the election of a barely concealed Marxist in 2008. The current administration is nothing more than a front, a convenient collection of useful idiots and Marxist allies for the one elected back in 2008.
So how do we stop it? Well, to use the left’s own words against them, we stop it “by any means necessary”. First off never ever give up your guns. The Second Amendment is the one thing that keeps the communist wolves at bat. Secondly, take back our education system. Time to stop the communist indoctrination of our children. Run for school boards so that you have a say in what textbooks your children learn from, and who teaches your children. Thirdly, insist on fairness in, and an unbiased news media. If they refuse, hit them in the pocketbook by letting their advertisers know how you feel, and where you’ll be spending your money.
And finally, protect the integrity of the vote. ‘Election Day’ should be the only election day. Too many opportunities for fraud to occur. Absentee ballots for people out of the country should be the only ‘mail in voting’. Proper, government issued identification only to verified American citizens should be the acceptable proof that one is qualified to vote in any election. Registration to vote should be restricted to no less than one month prior to the date of the election. No more drive up, register, and vote the same day.
Voting is a right for American citizens, but it also comes with responsibility. If exercising their vote is important enough to people, then people will follow whatever rules are put in place to protect the integrity of their vote.
We need to be prepared to do whatever is necessary to fight back and prevent the “fundamental transformation” of our country, America as a free nation is at risk. If that means raising the stakes on them first then so be it. If we don’t, they’re going to do it to us.
We outnumber them by a large margin. We need to get better organized, and more committed. We can prevent the greatest nation on Earth from becoming just another communist hellhole.
Everyone has heard now about “Kayla Lemieux,” the shop teacher at a high school outside of Toronto, Canada. He’s the man who showed up this year in mini-skirts and wearing fake boobs that look like two overblown balloons. His appearance is so extreme that even those people who support “transgender” madness are uncomfortable. Now, though, there’s a rumor that this is an elaborate troll from a man intent upon highlighting the corruption and lunacy of his school’s transgender madness.
Lemieux made national headlines when videos began to circulate showing his bizarre appearance:
That was disturbing. What was even more disturbing was the school’s support for Lemieux’s hypersexualized appearance.
The school first explained to parents that it has a commitment to “maintaining a safe, caring, inclusive, equitable and welcoming” environment for students and staff. However, the school insisted that it also had an obligation to provide “equitable treatment without discrimination based upon gender identity and gender expression.” Moreover, it added, “the Ontario Human Rights code” also protects “gender identity and gender expression.” Parents were not amused and protested vigorously.
Now, there’s totally unreliable but very intriguing evidence that, when Lemieux’s gender expression was that of an ordinary man, and he emphasized traditional values, the school subjected him to endless harassment. Further, the evidence claims, Lemieux’s bizarre, hypersexualized appearance is intended to make the point that tolerance only flows in one direction—toward the weird and perverse.
This different outlook does not come from a reliable source. Instead, it’s from an anonymous person on an online forum. That unknown person writes:
This dude is gaming the system. An anon here yesterday was in this dude’s class. This teacher was almost fired for ‘toxic masculinity’ last year, as well as not embracing woke culture. He’d drop redpills to his class, such as how silly gender neutral bathrooms are. The school board hates him.
He’s now upping the ante to exploit the very clown world the school and society itself created. His long game is most likely to get fired, and then sue for discrimination. There is no other explanation.. No better way to troll clown world than to become an over-the-top caricature of a woman.
Again: Nothing currently exists verifying the above post. However, if it’s true, we are witnessing an extraordinary act of trolling.
On the one hand, I strongly disapprove of the way the teacher is imposing this hypersexualized silhouette on his students. On the other hand, Lemieux’s fake boobs are no worse than the “transgender” porn the leftists are placing in school libraries, and the relentless way schools across the North American continent are proselytizing increasingly bizarre LGBTQ+++ positions beginning as early as kindergarten. (Just check out Libs of TikTok to see what I mean.)
In other words, it’s a dead certainty that every one of the kids in that high school has already been exposed to much worse. And if Lemieux has successfully revealed that his school consistently engages in gender discrimination against normal people, he’s performed a significant service. Of course, if Lemieux really is someone committed to this type of sexual performance, the fact that he’s using high school kids to sexually excite himself is disgusting, while the school’s response continues to be offensive and abnormal.
Giorgia Meloni was not the right’s only big election winner this weekend, with the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) also seeing success by scoring 18.6 percent of the vote in state elections in Tyrol.
The right-wing party overtook SPÖ, which only won 17.4 percent of the vote, to come in second place. The center-right ÖVP, which currently rules the country at the federal level in a coalition with the Greens, secured the first place result, with 34.7 percent of the vote, but saw its share drop 9.5 points. FPÖ’s top candidate, Markus Abwerzger, saw his vote total jump 3.3 points from 2018.
ÖVP already ruled out a power-sharing agreement with FPÖ before the election, and will most likely join an alliance with SPÖ, despite a coalition with FPÖ resulting in more seats in the state parliament.
The Greens fell from 10.7 percent to 9.2 percent, but also had the “Fritz List” overtake them to become the fourth-largest party in Tyrol. Voter turnout rose five points to 65 percent.
The Alpine region in the west of Austria is home to 1.8 million people and features the capital city of Innsbruck.
The Italian centre-right alliance led by firebrand conservative Giorgia Meloni has overtaken the left-wing Democratic Party in traditionally leftist regions, smashing through the historic “red wall” of the Italian election landscape.
Election data suggests that the centre-right, which includes Meloni’s Brothers of Italy (FdI), Matteo Salvini’s League and Silvio Berlusconi’s Forza Italia, have beaten the Democratic Party even in former leftist strongholds such as Tuscany and Emilia Romagna.
In Tuscany, the centre-right achieved between 40 to over 45 per cent of the vote in Lucca, Massa and Prato, a full ten per cent or more ahead of the left but an even more shocking result, according to a report from the newspaper Il Giornale, took place in Pisa where League member Edoardo Ziello upset leftist candidate Stefano Ceccanti winning 40 per cent of the vote compared to Ceccanti at 34.9 per cent.
Emilia Romagna also saw large gains for the Meloni-led alliance which won 39 per cent of the overall vote for the Italian Chamber of Deputies and while the Democratic Party was the single largest party in the region, the leftist alliance won just 35.84 per cent of the votes cast on Sunday. Similar numbers were reported in the vote for the Italian Senate as well.
Giorgia Meloni is Italy's new PM. She is dedicated to traditional family values, opposes gender ideology and the LGBT lobby, backs strong borders and seeks an end to unlimited mass migration. Fantastica!https://t.co/AbuimpGuOh
The centre-right alliance won seven of the eleven single-member constituencies in the region as well as three of the five single-member constituencies for the Italian senate. Under Italian election rules, some constituencies are voted on by individual candidates in a first-past-the-post system, while others are election lists using proportional representation.
While the centre-right broke through in the traditionally leftist areas, the Democrats managed to hold on to other historically leftist cities like Florence and Bologna.
In other former red wall regions, such as Umbria and Marche, the centre-right also saw victories, winning just under 45 per cent of the vote in Marche, continuing the gains the centre-right had made in the regions in the last national election in 2018.
Overall, the Meloni-led coalition won a total of 29 single-member constituencies in the former “red wall” compared to just 9 for the left, marking the end of control in regions that have been dominated by leftist parties since they were controlled by the former Communios party decades ago.
The result echoes the United Kingdom election results in 2019 that saw now former Prime Minister Boris Johnson smash through the historic ‘red wall’ once dominated by the Labour Party since the end of the Second World War. Johnson’s historic victory in Northern England saw the Conservatives reach the largest majority in the House of Commons since the last government led by Margaret Thatcher in 1987, with many Tories representing seats that had been solidly left wing for a century.
