A senior academic at the University of Bristol who specialises in inclusion, inequality and discrimination has called for someone to “blow up” a conference organised by the Jewish Labour Movement.
Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the University of Bristol Harriet Bradley made the comment while reposting another remark about the gathering which read: “If you wanted to know where you can find every racist, n**ce and sh**house in Britain, now you know.”
Above that post, which inlcuded the poster adverstising the JLM event, Bradley wrote: “Somebody blow up the venue!”
The ex-Labour councillor has since deleted the tweet but other inflammatory posts by Bradley remain online.
In one she says about the conference: “God preserve us. I’d walk through mud and nettles rather than listen to these evil people.”
Another message from Bradley, posted on 5 December, reads, “All Zionist supporters should go straight to hell. They are demons not human beings”.
The professor has written about inclusion and discrimination. She describes herself as an “ex-Labour councillor”, a “passionate socialist” and an academic who studies “inequalities of class, gender, ethnicity”.
The JLM event on January 14 is due to host some of the party’s biggest names as speakers including Wes Streeting, Peter Mandleson, Margaret Hodge, Luciana Berger, Ruth Anderson and Louise Ellman.
Former Bristol University sociologist David Miller, a well-known anti-Zionist, was sacked in 2021 amid allegations of antisemitism.
Bradley told the JC her post about “blowing up” the conference was “only banter! A joke! But I do realise now it was in bad taste and would like to apologise to all those offended or frightened by it”.
She went on to say she “deplored the way that Labour has been taken over by pro-Zionist people and left-wing Jews have been kicked out”.
About the other posts, she said: “These are reflections of the anger I feel at the slaughter of innocent children and babies in Gaza. I deplore the violence of Hamas but it does not justify the massive violence and destruction of Gaza which in my view does amount to genocide.”
Swedish authorities have shut down a school in Stockholm after the Swedish security police Säpo produced evidence that the students attending the school were at risk of becoming radicalised as several staff members have ties to Jihadism.
The Swedish Schools Inspectorate revoked a permit for ALM Education, which runs the Cordoba International School, named after the capital of Islamic-ruled Spain according to the school, in the Stockholm suburb of Kista as the newspaper Aftonbladet reports that board members of the company had ties to Islamic extremist groups.
One staff member who worked for a preschool run by ALM Education is even said to have been involved with a terrorist group in the past.
Säpo provided information on the backgrounds of the board members and others but did not clarify which overseas terrorist group the preschool employee was connected to.
“In cases where it is possible, we share information with the relevant authorities, but otherwise, we cannot share more information,” said Karin Lutz, press spokesman for Säpo.
Sweden has seen a number of Islamic State returnees in recent years, most of them women who were being held with their children at the al-Hol prison camp in northern Syria.
Several of the women have been arrested upon their return to Sweden, with one being charged for allegedly forcing her own son to become a child soldier for the terrorist group.
Some reports have even suggested that Islamic State returnees have been recruiting new members for the group in so-called “basement mosques” in cities like multicultural Malmö.
Swedish Minister for Education Lotta Edholm commented on the ALM Education case saying:
Following today’s decision, it feels particularly important that the government has both commissioned the Schools Inspectorate to review schools where there is a risk of extremism and Islamism and that the Schools Inspectorate will receive additional funds as early as next year to strengthen its review. Radical Islamists and terror-related extremists should of course never be given influence over Swedish schools.
ALM Education hit back against the allegations by Säpo, with CEO Ulla Parkkinen stating that they would appeal the decision to close the school and stated:
We don’t know what the information from the Security Service contains, and it is on vague grounds that a school that has been operating for 26 years at Järvafältet is being closed. And that has actively worked against Islamisation, violence, extremism and gang crime.
Over 500 students attend the Cordoba International School, which teaches preschool to grade 9. The school is expected to close on January 8th.
While the school is private, it receives public funding and is one of the estimated 4,000 or so ‘free schools’ that are publicly funded but work as for-profit institutions.
According to the Times, the system of ‘free schools’ has come under fire as they have been accused of profiting from taxpayers’ rather than simply providing alternative education choices.
In one case in 2021, the head of a Muslim school in Gothenburg was accused of scamming taxpayers, shipping millions of Swedish kronor off to his native Somalia, where it then went into the coffers of an Islamist political party. The principal, Abdirizak Waberi, a former MP for the centre-right Moderates, was later charged with embezzlement.
In recent years, some Swedish political parties have suggested shutting down all faith-based schools, not just Islamic schools that may be at risk of radicalising their students.,
Charlie Weimers, a member of the European Parliament for the populist-conservative Sweden Democrats (SD) stated in 2018 that his party favoured a more nuanced approach to the issue.
“What we see now is that the laïcité principle, that all religion should be removed from public space, now getting traction as the most comfortable way of dealing with the ’uncomfortable’ religion of Islam,” he said.
Last year, the former Swedish leftist government proposed a ban on the creation of new faith schools despite all of the problems with radicalisation and issues of gender segregation being entirely found in Islamic schools.
An off-duty police officer was attacked yesterday in Vélizy Villacoublay by as he drove home in his car, it was learnt by @Valeurs from a police source.
A motorist parked on the carriageway (the later assailant) put his car in reverse and forced the policeman to reverse his car. Another driver, who was behind the police officer’s car, then honked his horn. The first vehicle that caused the accident thought that the police officer off-duty had honked and said to him: “You will not become a special task force here”.
The same driver eventually followed him and parked behind him before getting out of his car and saying, “I’m going to fuck your mum, there are no cameras here you dirty cop”.
When the policeman tried to calm the situation down again, the attacker said: “On the Quran of Mecca, I’m going to fuck you and your family, we know who you are”. He then punched the policeman while repeating: “I will fuck you, I will fuck you”. The policeman was eventually able to get away, pursued by his attacker, who videotaped him saying: “Look, that’s him, that’s a policeman”.
According to the victim’s version, however, the policeman never mentioned his profession. The perpetrator was eventually identified as a certain Chikine D., who was born in the 1990s, lives in the same neighbourhood as the police officer and, according to online administrative information, worked as a courier driver.
A trans-identified male who recently transitioned has been dominating women’s cycling events along the east coast while working with the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion committee at the University of Vermont. Reduxx has learned that Roger “Roxanne” Bombardier, 57, is also a member of a fetish subculture that associates womanhood with sexual servitude.
On December 2, Bombardier took first place in the women’s Fat Bike category at the Ice Weasels Cometh race in Southwick, Massachusetts. News of his win was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by @i_heart__bikes, an account documenting the rapid increase in men participating in women’s cycling events on the basis of gender identity.
Since 2021, Bombardier has competed in 19 events in the women’s category, coming in first in five races, and second in two. In October 2021, Bombardier came in first in the Women’s Masters 50+ event in Wrightsville, Vermont, where he was one of only two listed participants. During that race, Bombardier beat Fran Plaisted, who has not entered another competition since. In two other events where Bombardier has taken first place, he was the only competitor.
Bombardier, a combat veteran of the war in Iraq, had previously participated in races in the men’s division. In 2018, he won gold in his division for men aged 50-54 in a 40K road race held at the Vermont/Maine Senior Games.
During a 2020 interview for Vermont Sports, Bombardier stated: “I’ve been trans since I was 11, so I it’s something I’m used to fighting, and being in the closet about. It was something I only shared with certain people. I presented as a transvestite for a long time and would dress in secret.”
He added that the “catalyst” for publicly declaring that he identifies as transgender was seeing “Bruce Jenner… become Caitlyn Jenner,” as well as the public “transition” of trans-identified former Vermont gubernatorial candidate Christine Hallquist.
Disturbingly, Reduxx has learned that Bombardier has been following and interacting with SoundCloud accounts that create “sissification hypnosis” audio tracks during a time period that coincides with his participation in women’s events.
According to Bomarbier’s profile, he has been following multiple accounts that produce content known as “sissification hypnosis,” typically shortened to sissy hypno. On the SoundCloud platform, sissy hypno is comprised of audio files wherein a speaker narrates, in a hypnosis format, instructing the listener to dissociate from their male self and to adopt a new, feminine identity.
One account followed by Bombardier, emi.transfemme, operated a now-defunct pornographic microblogging site called Sissy Nexus which encouraged male visitors to “fully embrace the unceasing desire to be a woman.” On his main SoundCloud page, emi.transfemme has compiled dozens of sissy audio files in a playlist titled “Normalize Feminization,” and features an avatar of a man’s anus. He also advertises his FetLife profile, where he uses the name Piper Bream and lists a series of BDSM-related fetishes.
Track titles highlighted by emi.transfemme include “Ladies & Sissies (The Sissy Maker),” “Limp and Obedient,” “Bimbo Mantra,” “Accept Faggotry,” “Permanent Princess,” and “The Curse of the Teeny Weenie.” All are produced with the intention of encouraging listeners to feminize themselves and several repeat tropes about women typically found in pornography.
“Bimbo Mantra” is recited by a feminine AI voice on loop: “I like it when my mind goes blank. I like it when my mind goes pop. I love getting empty and letting my mind drop. I love to show off my plastic tits and fill my head with air. I just need to giggle and listen so good. I love getting blank and brainless. So much better to touch my plastic tits than to think.”
Another account followed by Bombardier, hypnosissteps, purports to help men “unleash your inner woman.” A track titled “Crossdresser Feminization Hypnosis,” narrated by a female voice, encourages men with a transvestic fetish to “allow your subconscious to take over” in order to “create an inner woman for you.”
“Girls learn how to walk, talk and act like women around the age of twelve… it does not come to them naturally. The way women walk and talk is taught to them by society when they are girls… Simply being themselves, they enjoy men fawning over them… and other women thinking of them as competitors. This is how easy it can be for you,” the narrator says.
In a track titled “Transgender Feminization Hypnosis,” the narrator speaks slowly over the sound of running water, and describes a woman with a “magical aura” and a “sparkling seductive shine.”
“What a perfect voice she has. Seductive, feminine, round and beautiful. This woman combines every feminine feature you have ever wanted for yourself, in exactly the way you’ve always dreamed of. In a flash, your whole being is amazed as you look at her face and suddenly realize that this woman is actually you!”
Bombardier has also interacted with sissification audio, and three years ago commented on one track called “Long Feminization” by user Gondolkodom Most.
“Listen to me and sink a little deeper… The deeper you sink, the harder it is to remember your old body template at all. Image is everything. If a person wears appropriately feminine underwear, those things will become a pleasant and enjoyable part of how they go about their days… eventually they will have re-crafted their self-image… the old body template has been cast aside.”
“LOVE THIS,” thank you for making it. Would love it if you made more feminization audios,” Bombardier responded.
On his Facebook page, Bombardier has compared legislation seeking to restrict sports categories on the basis of sex to the persecution of Jewish athletes during Germany’s Nazi regime.
In July, cycling competition Belgian Waffle Ride announced the creation of an “open” category in the interest of preserving “equal access and opportunities.” Beginning from August 1, BWR stated, only “racers who were born female” would be permitted to enter the female classification, and likewise for the male designation. The open category would be for “all racers, regardless of gender identification.”
Bombardier lashed out at the organization on Instagram in a rant which equated the category classifications to racism against African Americans in the United States during the Civil Rights era.
“Bigot [sic] are constantly in the process of attacking cisgender women accusing them of being transgender for having short hair or a sqaure jaw. I am reminded of historical claims that non-white races are better suited for other types of work due to their biology. This is BIGOTRY pure and simple,” Bombardier wrote. The BWR would delete the post from their social media shortly after.
Bombardier is currently listed as a member of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion committee at the University of Vermont which oversaw the development of an “Inclusive Excellence Action Plan” launched in 2022. According to the guidelines, stated goals include increasing “faculty/staff participation in DEI-related trainings, conferences, and professional development events.”
Two Iraqi migrants will remain in Sweden after serving their custodial sentences for the gang rape of a Swedish woman onboard a cruise ship after a court rejected deportation requests by the public prosecutor because the duo were deemed to have “integrated” into Swedish society.
Mazin Al-Sharash, 36, and Akar Bajorani, 32, were sentenced to six years and five years and three months respectively for aggravated rape of a woman during a 24-hour cruise between Stockholm and Mariehamn on Sept. 10 this year.
The Stockholm District Court heard how the duo had grabbed the woman and ushered her into a cabin before hitting her in the face, pulling her hair, spitting and urinating on her and both raping her during a four-hour assault.
The court found that the pair had “acted with particular recklessness and brutality” during the sentencing hearing.
The public prosecutor had pushed for deportation orders for the foreign gang rapists after serving their sentences, however, the court rejected this request.
It held that Al-Sharash, who had arrived in Sweden from Iraq back in 2018 had become a Swedish citizen in 2021, and as such it would not be appropriate to deport him. Despite his citizenship, Al-Sharash required an Arabic translator to assist him during the trial.
Bajorani came to Sweden from Iraq in 2008 as a teenager but is not a Swedish citizen. He was, however, deemed to have “integrated” into Swedish society due to the fact that he has two children who are Swedish citizens and is expecting a third. He is also proficient in the Swedish language.
“Bajorani has integrated by learning Swedish and supporting himself through work, mainly as a taxi driver,” the court’s judgment read, as cited by the Samnytt news outlet.
Talking to Samnytt following the judgment, public prosecutor Emma Svedberg revealed that she was considering an appeal of the court’s decision which she believes to be too lenient for the severity of the offense.
“I think it is satisfactory that both men have been convicted of aggravated rape. At the same time, the district court has arrived at a shorter prison sentence than I have requested,” Svedberg said.
“The district court has not reached the conclusion that the man whom I requested to be deported should be deported,” she added.
As UT24 already reported, around 30 foreigners attacked the Krampus run in Naturns yesterday ( December 6th) and went on the rampage. A victim has now reported on the actions of the gang of foreigners.
“The village police already knew in advance that a group of Albanians would come to Naturns for the Krampus parade to provoke, beat and cause trouble! The Krampus association was also warned in advance,” says the woman. According to her, the Krampuses were pelted with blocks of ice or pulled to the ground from behind by their horns. One person even lost a tooth. The village policeman and the authorities were also verbally and physically attacked by the Albanians.
Statements such as: “There is only Albania here!” were said. As if that wasn’t enough, several locals were spat in the face and women were mobbed. “The grandstand with St Nicholas, where there were also children, was stormed by the foreign youths,” reports the victim. In the end, the group was forced onto a passing transport bus and taken to Merano.
Attempts to lift the parliamentary immunity of Socialist Euro MP Marie Arena have been blocked by Belgium’s federal prosecutor, according to a prominent lawyer in the Qatargate case.
The newly appointed investigating judge, Aurélie Dejaiffe, wants Arena, a Belgian politician, to be investigated but has got nowhere with her request, it is claimed.
Lawyer Maxim Töller, who defends Qatargate accused Marc Tarabella, says the Qatargate investigation is being deliberately obstructed.
Belgium’s federal public prosecutor, the sole authority with the power to relay requests to the European Parliament, has allegedly refused to forward Dejaiffe’s immunity request: a “real scandal”, according to Töller, who spoke to the Sudinfo news group.
Töller is known for bringing down the former investigating judge, Michel Claise, by exposing ties between Claise’s son and Marie Arena’s son. Claise, as a consequence, recused himself.
The lawyer highlighted a pivotal moment in the investigation: the signing of a plea deal with Pier Antonio Panzeri, the alleged mastermind behind the European Parliament corruption case.
Töller contends that secret, unwritten agreements between the prosecutor and Panzeri raise serious legal concerns. These agreements purportedly involve the non-prosecution of Panzeri’s family members and the withdrawal of arrest warrants, agreements that he says undermine basic principles of justice.
“The law does not allow agreements that benefit other people than the repentant himself,” he told Belgian media. The investigating judge “cannot be bound by an agreement between a prosecutor and a suspect! He must be able to remain independent.”
Töller pointed to another controversial agreement: the known date of Panzeri’s release from prison.
He alleges that negotiations surrounding Panzeri’s release were improper, with Panzeri’s lawyer celebrating the release in an interview recorded 48 hours before the decision was made by the council chamber.
Expressing astonishment at recent press releases, Töller questioned whether there was an undisclosed agreement between Panzeri and the federal prosecutor to spare Marie Arena from prosecution.
He emphasised Arena’s presumption of innocence and expressed concern about potential consequences for her and his client, Marc Tarabella, who, like Arena, denies any Qatargate involvement.
A few days ago, Tarabella underwent heart surgery, reportedly because of stress.
In response to these accusations, the federal prosecutor’s spokesperson, Eric Van Duyse, denied claims that the prosecutor had no intention of prosecuting Arena. Van Duyse said prosecution decisions will be made at the end of the investigation.
Arena’s name has been prominent from the beginning of the case though she has never been questioned, even as a witness.
Maxim Töller’s remarks come after an interview earlier this week by the two lawyers of Eva Kaili, the Greek MEP and former vice president of the European Parliament, in Belgian publication La Libre Belgique.
In that interview, they said the Qatargate case “really makes no sense,” and spoke of serious “dysfunctions.” The lawyers claimed “the Belgian justice system is being manipulated”.
They pointed out that at first, the investigators concentrated on a few people, and Marie Arena’s name kept coming up as a possible suspect. They said that that according to a State Security report (also leaked to local media) Arena is regarded as a cornerstone of the purported criminal organisation, whereas Eva Kaili is not a part of it.
For or unknown reasons, they claimed, the Belgian federal prosecutor declared Dejaiffe’s attempt to lift Arena’s immunity to be “in error”.
Brussels Signal asked the Belgian prosecutor if the story about Dejaiffe wanting to lift immunity from Arena was true, and why Arena hasn’t been questioned yet. The spokesperson of the public prosecutor declined to comment.
A woman has neck pain – the physiotherapist kneads her breasts …
District Court Berlin-Tiergarten. Accused: Islam A. (36). Stateless Palestinian. State-certified physiotherapist.
The charge: sexual abuse of three female patients by exploiting a medical therapy session, combined with rape and sexual assault.
A teacher (33) came in with shoulder pain: panties down, hands between her buttocks and worse. He pulled down the trousers of an employee (58) and massaged her buttocks: “Take it easy!” He was sacked from the practice. Immediately found a new workplace.
Shortly afterwards, the next sexual offence took place there: a young Arab woman (22) had pain in her neck, he kneaded her breasts long and hard: “I’m looking for pain!” Then he pulled down her trousers and grabbed her crotch. The woman first called her husband, then the police. The perpetrator was sacked. Now he is in court and wants to spare the three women from having to testify. Only a confession will save him from jail. So he admits everything. He gets off with a two-year suspended prison sentence. Plus 2500 euros in damages for the teacher, who still needs therapy for her damaged mental health.
The therapist with the dirty fingers found a new job straight away. Nothing more is said to have happened since then. If the judgement becomes final, he may be banned from his profession.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is orchestrating a plan to resettle up to a quarter of a million Palestinians from the Gaza into the Turkish-occupied region of northern Cyprus and Kurdish-populated areas of southeastern Turkey, according to a newly published report.
The report by Gregory R. Copley, editor at GIS/Defence & Foreign Affairs* and cited by Medya News, points to a collaboration between Turkey, Qatar and the terrorist group Hamas and highlights the far-reaching strategic consequences for the Eastern Mediterranean.
Revealed in the report is the extensive consultations ongoing between the Turkish and Qatari secret services and Hamas officials.
These discussions, focused on the long-standing crisis in Gaza, include a plan, accepted by Israel, to relocate a significant number of Palestinians from Gaza to third countries, thereby appearing to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in the region, by potentially reshaping geopolitical dynamics in the Eastern Mediterranean, in a strategic redistribution of populations across sensitive political borders.
Central to this plan is Turkey’s intention, as orchestrated by the Turkish Intelligence Service (MİT), for the “humanitarian transfer and relocation” of 200,000 to 250,000 Palestinians from Gaza to areas in southeast Turkey, predominantly inhabited by Kurdish populations. Moreover, a substantial portion of these refugees are planned for resettlement in occupied northern Cyprus, particularly in the wider Famagusta area.
This plan, as the report indicates, serves multiple strategic purposes for Turkey. Firstly, it positions Turkey as a benefactor in the Islamic world, backed by a ‘Special Fund’ for Palestinians. Secondly, the resettlement in occupied Cyprus implicitly pushes for the recognition of the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), which is currently recognised only by Turkey.
Additionally, Turkey’s actions are intertwined with aspirations to normalise relations with Israel. By transferring a large number of Palestinian refugees to Turkey, it hopes to alleviate the pressure Israel faces due to a growing Palestinian population in Gaza. This plan aligns with Israel’s intentions to relocate Palestinians from its territory, suggesting a coordination of geostrategic moves between the two nations.
Furthermore, Turkey’s broader scheme includes establishing an international body through the United Nations, led by Turkey, to oversee a multi-level peace initiative for resolving the Palestinian issue.
This initiative reflects Turkey’s declared intention to act as a guarantor for the Palestinian side, positioning it as a key player in the region’s stability and security. The plan involves an international security and governance regime in the Gaza Strip under Turkey’s leadership, effectively exerting pressure on the international community, particularly the EU, to recognise and finance the resettlement program. This move further underscores Turkey’s strategic aim to extend its influence and diplomatic reach in the Eastern Mediterranean.
The report also sheds light on the current situation in occupied northern Cyprus, which hosts various Islamic cells and serves as a financial and operational base for extremist Islamic organisations. The proposed resettlement of Palestinians, along with the ongoing discreet operation of banks from countries like Iran and North Korea, adds complexity to the region’s already delicate political and security landscape.
This strategic move by Turkey, if executed, would significantly alter the demographic and political dynamics in the Eastern Mediterranean and reshape Turkey’s relations with its regional neighbours, the European Union, and the broader international community.
