Specialists of the Hungarian and German police have identified the assumed leader of the violent left-wing Antifa group responsible for a wave of brutal assaults in Budapest in February that shocked the country.
The 29-year-old Johann Guntermann, the spiritual father of the notorious Hammerbande (Hammer Gang), is also the fiancé of Lina Engel, the leader of the Antifa group who is currently incarcerated. He has been on the run for three years. Guntermann is suspected to have been one of the perpetrators of the brutal attack in February. The man was identified by a team of police specialists after analyzing CCTV footage of the Budapest attack.

According to Der Spiegel, the State Criminal Police (LKA) in Saxony have determined the far-left figure, nicknamed Gucci, to be one of the most violent antifascists in the country. He is one of a group of about 20 people who allegedly hunted right-wing extremists in Budapest in February. It is unclear how he entered the country given his status as a fugitive in Europe.
In Budapest, the eight victims, who were randomly selected for wearing military-style clothing, were beaten, leaving some severely injured. The suspects believed the victims were a part of a right-wing demonstration occurring in the city.
Following the Budapest manhunt, police raided known centers of far-left groups in Berlin, Saxony and Thuringia and seized several documents and electronic media. These are being analyzed jointly with the Hungarian police.

Guntermann is considered a prominent figure on the violent far left in Germany by police and comrades alike for his brutal actions. Authorities say he is characterized by professionalism as well as a penchant for violence.
According to the specialist portal Dokumentation Linksextremismus, Guntermann is considered to be the most wanted left-wing extremist in Germany and has been on the run from the police since 2019. He is not only wanted by the Frankfurt public prosecutor but also has several other arrest warrants out for him. Among other crimes, he is wanted for posing as a masked anti-fascist police officer in Eilengurg and then Erfurt in 2021 and torturing his victims, including a pregnant woman, in their own homes.

Following a parliamentary vote, it is clear that Icelandic lawmakers will introduce much stricter asylum laws than before. 38 MEPs voted to remove social and economic benefits for rejected asylum seekers – while only 15 opposed this.
Recently, Iceland has become a popular destination for third world migrants. In 2022, 2,500 asylum applications were received in the island nation, which has a total population of just under 400,000.
The change supported by the three governing parties means that asylum seekers will not be eligible for health and social security benefits if they are not deemed to have valid reasons for asylum, which could also make the country less attractive to migrants.
Authorities in Iceland have reported many cases of asylum abuse and complained that, due to Iceland’s membership in the Schengen zone, migrants can enter the island without having to pass through border controls.
– For several years, there have been repeated attempts to amend the migration law. The situation has changed a lot during this time, and today we are facing an unprecedented problem in receiving all those who come to us as refugees and seek protection. Therefore, in my opinion, it is quite clear that we need to consider further measures to approximate the rules of our neighboring countries, so that we do not end up with numbers that far exceed those of those countries, commented Minister of Justice Jón Gunnarsson.
In the past, Icelandic authorities have also unveiled plans to deport hundreds of asylum seekers back to the countries where they first applied for asylum – a proposal that prompted the pro-mass migration organization to stage protests in the country, claiming that migrants who are deported may face “inhumane” conditions and substandard living conditions.
Police in France have reportedly been recorded threatening protesters demonstrating against the country’s President, Emmanuel Macron.
French police officers have reportedly been recorded making graphic threats against members of the public protesting against the country’s embattled President, Emmanuel Macron.
Sparked by a highly-unpopular increase in the state pension age, demonstrations may be spiralling out of control, with rioting now a frequent sight in many parts of the European Union member-state.
Such violence appears to have resulted in a deterioration in the relationship between protesters and some members of the French police, with various forces in the country being accused of using excessive force against some demonstrators.
At least some of these claims now appear to have been substantiated with hard evidence, with Le Mondereporting that some members of the Motorized Brigades for the Repression of Violent Action (BRAV-M) were secretly recorded violently threatening protesters after arresting them.
According to the French publication, around six young people arrested by the force were subjected both to detailed threats of violence as well as “sexual remarks”, with one individual reportedly being told that they had a “slappable face”.
“You’re so lucky to be sitting there, now that we’ve arrested you,” one officer was reportedly recorded saying. “I swear, I’d have broken your legs, literally. I can tell you, we’ve broken elbows and faces… but you, I’d have broken your legs.”
The recordings have now reportedly sparked a judicial investigation into members of the BRAV-M unit, with Paris’ prefect of police, Laurent Nuñez, describing the recorded comments as “unacceptable” and adding that they “ethically pose very serious problems”.
For politicians in the country, however, what so far appear to be isolated cases of police brutality are not the main concern, with the combination of 66 days of protests and debilitating trade union strikes starting to take their toll on the country’s ruling elite.
Some in the country have even begun questioning whether the crisis is something the Macron government can reasonably survive, though opposition attempts to see the current administration removed from office have so far failed.
Others are looking further ahead, with POLITICOpondering on Friday what will happen to France once Macron is eventually forced to leave office, either due to a political coup or his term ending in 2027.
While extremely unpopular himself, Macron and his shakey neoliberal alliance have managed to just barely hold onto power over the last six years, with many in the country opting to reluctantly vote for him and his Renaissance political party just to keep supposedly more extreme elements on the left and right out of power.
However, the publication notes that as French politics becomes ever more polarised, there has so far been no sign of a new centrist force emerging in the country to take Macron’s place when he is eventually forced to abdicate his throne.
Multiculturalism has turned Sweden, once a crime free paradise of social welfare, into a war zone. Europe is doomed

“Not a day goes by in Stockholm without a shooting or an explosion. In one part of the city, residents of housing developments have been advised on what to do if their building is the target of a bomb. For too many Swedes, it’s the new normal.”
So Paulina Neuding, the bravest and most honest Swedish journalist, writes in the Spectator. Neuding’s essay needs to be read to understand how a European country that functioned, orderly and peacefully until ten years ago, was destroyed by unmanageable migratory flows. The Conservative government is now trying to plug a situation out of control. Maria Malmer Stenergard, minister for migration policies, announced in Parliament the end of reunifications, new funds for the border police, armored borders and intensified expulsions of illegal immigrants. Over 100,000 people live in hiding on the outskirts of major cities.
A Swede named Milad Salari, born in Iran, and who arrived in Sweden with his parents when he was three years old, several days ago in Gothenburg stabbed a Dutch girl in the throat who was visiting her grandparents. Eventually it transpired that – surprise! – Salari shouted “Allahu Akhbar”.
In Uppsala, a picturesque university city, 80 per cent of the girls do not feel safe. According to the National Security Report, four out of ten Swedish women are afraid to walk down the street. According to a 2018 study by Expressen, 40 of 43 men convicted of rape in Sweden were born abroad or had parents born outside Sweden. Clearly Sweden’s reputation as a women’s nirvana is woefully outdated. But it’s not just women who are in danger. There have been attacks on churches and synagogues.
In an Instagram post, celebrated Swedish artist Jason Diakité, stage name “Timbuktu”, posted a message to “all blacks and browns in Sweden”, stating that “demography is on our side. We are at 25 per hundred in the country with roots outside Europe. Here we are”.
A study by the Dutch think tank Gefira analyzes population change in Sweden over the next few decades. In 2066 a total repopulation with non-Swedish communities will have taken place.
Illegal weapons enter Sweden through the Oresund bridge, which connects the country to Denmark and which from a symbol of “united Europe” becomes the emblem of trafficking in arms, drugs and human beings.
Two million immigrants (20 percent of the entire population) live in Sweden and come from the most troubled parts of Asia and Africa. And the country has failed to integrate them. Twenty years ago, gun crime was non-existent in Sweden. Today, the gruesome murders we see in noir TV series are no longer imaginary. The Scandinavian cradle of liberalism is, together with Croatia, the nation with the easiest trigger finger in Europe.
During the late 1960s and early 1970s, when Swedish industry was booming, there was a need for workers in Stockholm and other major cities such as Uppsala and Lund. The solution was the “Million Program”. Hailed as the most ambitious housing program the world has ever seen, Sweden has seen one million new homes built in the suburbs. The Social Democrats said these new neighborhoods would help create “good democratic citizens”. But Swedish families would move away as soon as possible, replaced by migrant families. And today they are “off limits zones”.
Earlier this year in the Farsta district of south Stockholm, police ordered residents to stay in their homes after an explosive device was detonated in the stairwell of a residential building in the early morning hours .
Multiculturalism as a war zone.
Meanwhile, a new research project examines the infiltration of Swedish society by the Muslim Brotherhood. Written by Egyptian-born researcher Sameh Egyptson of Lund University, this 744-page doctoral thesis provides evidence that the Islamic League of Sweden is a front group for the Muslim Brotherhood working covertly to further Islamist goals. In the report, Egyptson refers to the “1995 European strategy” promulgated by Muslim Brotherhood leaders on the long-term Islamization of Swedish society through demographic and cultural changes.
Malmö imam Basem Mahmoud said it was only a matter of time before they took control of the country: “Sweden is ours. It’s ours, whether the Swedes like it or not. In ten or fifteen years it will be ours”.
Arrivals en masse, society disintegrating into chaos, creeping conquest. Everything seems to be going according to plan.
Europe is suffering from the new Stockholm syndrome. It’ll end up like the boiled frog.
Popular classic Agatha Christie novels are said to have been rewritten to battle modern sensitivities, according to The Telegraph.
Christie’s Poirot and Miss Marple mysteries serious are being released in new editions by publisher HarperCollins that will see passages reworked or removed.
As The Telegraph shared that parts were removed including references made to people smiling and comments on physiques.
Christie’s books are not the first to face modern edits, as books by Roald Dahl and Ian Fleming were both edited by publishers.
The updated versions of Christie’s work are set to be released or have been released over time since 2020 by the publisher, HarperCollins.
According to The Telegraph, the publisher has created a new edition of the entire series of Miss Marple and a select few Poirot novels.
It’s said that Christie’s own narration through the inner monologues of the title characters has also been altered.
Whilst parts of dialogue from unsympathetic characters have been cut as well as descriptions, insults or references to ethnicity.
One part from the 1937 Poirot novel Death on the Nile sees the character Mrs Allerton say: “they come back and stare, and stare, and their eyes are simply disgusting, and so are their noses, and I don’t believe I really like children” after a group of children pester her.
In the new edition, Mrs Allerton’s complaints have been altered to: “They come back and stare, and stare. And I don’t believe I really like children.”
The updated version of the 1964 Miss Marple A Caribbean Mystery sees the description of a West Indian hotel worker’s smile changed, with the lines “such lovely white teeth” and “beautiful teeth” removed.
This is not the first time Christie’s work has been changed, with her 1939 novel And Then There Were None once under a different title but changed due to the use of a racist phase.
