Bureau of Prisons Ordered To Provide Incarcerated Transgender Pedophile Laser Hair Removal And Feminizing Voice Therapy

Brian “Nani Love” Buckingham

The Bureau of Prisons has been ordered to provide laser hair removal and other cosmetic services to a transgender pedophile currently incarcerated for sexually abusing his own 10-year-old son. Brian Buckingham, 47, changed his name to “Nani Love” and declared that he identified as “female” just before he was sentenced for the horrific crime.

Reduxx can exclusively report details from the disturbing case, the investigation into which began in February of 2020 after popular chat service Discord became aware of child sexual abuse material being uploaded to its platform.

Discord had received a report from a concerned user about abuse images that had been made public, and a human moderator verified the contents of the report and immediately notified the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC). Based on the IP address of the account associated with the image, the NCMEC went on to involve the Washington State Patrol. A detective was assigned to the case to review the evidence from Discord, which included an image file depicting an adult man preparing to penetrate the anus of a young child.

In April of 2020, a court issued a search warrant to Discord for all of the information associated with the account the image had originated from. Reviewing selfies the account had uploaded to various group chats, the Washington State Patrol was then able to confirm the owner of the account was Brian Buckingham of Neah Bay. An additional package of media provided to police by Discord revealed two videos featuring Buckingham and a child victim that was later determined to be Buckingham’s own 10-year-old son.

The videos, which were taken on what police described as a covert security camera that had been positioned somewhere in the room, were shared with another Discord user who actively encouraged Buckingham to sexually abuse his child.

Conversations between Buckingham and the other Discord user reveal that Buckingham frequently exposed his young son to homosexual and bisexual pornography.

Continuing the investigation, the Washington State Patrol found that Buckingham had exchanged Discord messages expressing an interest in rape and sexually abusing animals and toddlers. Buckingham also shared child sexual abuse material with other Discord users, and even engaged in sexually exploitative chats with at least one user who identified themselves as being 13.

Buckingham utilized multiple social media platforms, including Discord, to advertise his aspirations to become a gaming streamer focused on Rocket League. He went by several handles, including “The_Awakward_Package,” “DoubleDoc,” and “GamingDaddy” on TikTok, YouTube, and Periscope.

On a YouTube channel confirmed by Reduxx as belonging to Buckingham, the predator promoted his own full line of self-branded merchandise despite only having 73 subscribers.

Buckingham was also active in Native American suicide prevention campaigns as a neurobiology student at Washington State University. An X account belonging to Buckingham reveals that he was on the Washington State Suicide Prevention Plan Steering Committee in 2015, and met with Senator Tina Orwall in 2015. In 2017, Buckingham was listed as a Substance Use Program Manager at Circles of Care, a community health service for the Makah Indian Nation.

On June 2, 2020, the Washington State Patrol obtained a search warrant for Buckingham’s residence. Upon questioning, Buckingham denied any sexual contact with minors, and initially denied ever exchanging any sexual abuse media on Discord.

Because Buckingham is a member of the Makah Indian Nation and the crimes were committed on Makah land, the case was referred to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. In the United States, major crimes committed in Indian Country are unable to be prosecuted by state officials and fall under the jurisdiction of the federal government.

Buckingham was initially indicted on two counts – one of the production of child pornography, and one of the distribution of child pornography. But the indictment was later revised to include three counts of the production of child pornography, one count of the distribution of child pornography, and one count of aggravated sexual assault on a child.

Buckingham’s case was slow-moving through the justice system due to the COVID-19 pandemic. His attorneys also pressed for a comprehensive mental health evaluation to determine his competency to stand trial. His attorneys briefly began to explore the possibility of a “sexsomnia” defense after receiving a report that suggested Buckingham may have a tendency to perform sexual acts in his sleep.

On December 4, 2024, Buckingham waived his right to a trial and entered into a plea agreement, admitting to the production of child pornography and abusive sexual contact with a child.

Just prior to being sentenced, Buckingham’s attorneys submitted a memorandum informing the court that he now identified as transgender and had changed his legal name to “Nani Love Buckingham.”

In a court document dated March 20, 2025, the pronouns used to refer to Buckingham were swapped to “she/her” and his transgender identity abruptly became the focus where it had not been mentioned at all in dozens of previous filings.

The memorandum claimed that Buckingham was suffering from “gender dysphoria” and had become depressed in wake of the Executive Orders issued by the Trump administration prohibiting the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) from “affirming” the “identity” of federal inmates who identify as transgender. It also revealed that the Bureau of Prisons had previously hastily arranged “gender-affirming medical treatment” for Buckingham just prior to Trump’s inauguration, but that the procedures had been abruptly cancelled due to the Executive Orders.

“BOP previously provided Buckingham with gender-affirming medical treatment and accommodations to address her gender dysphoria, including hormone therapy. The gender-affirming health care she was receiving afforded her relief from the distress of gender dysphoria and significantly improved her mental health,” the document reads. “However, the hormone therapy has now ended and the gender affirming surgery that was previously scheduled has now been cancelled. As a result, Buckingham’s depression and suicidal ideation have been exacerbated.”

Buckingham’s defense requested he be allowed to serve his time in FCI Butner in North Carolina, writing that the “reputation of this facility is that it is a safer location for transgender individuals, there is better access to psychiatrists, there are stronger health services available.”

The court ultimately imposed a sentence of 252 months in prison, and adopted the recommendation that Buckingham serve his sentence at FCI Butner. He was also ordered to pay $2,450 in restitution.

Just prior to the sentence being formalized in that case, Buckingham had already begun to file a lawsuit against the Federal Bureau of Prisons and Trump administration officials for alleged violations of his human rights.

In a motion filed in April of 2025, Buckingham claimed that Bureau of Prisons had violated his Eighth Amendment rights and his rights under Section 2 of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 by denying him access to “medically necessary care.” Buckingham described himself as a “transgender female” in the motion, and claimed that he was at risk of irreparable harm if the accommodations were not provided to him.

From Buckingham’s lawsuit agains the federal government.

“My mental health, psychological well being, and my ability to function have been severely damaged. I am in constant pain. I feel like I am being tortured, and I am very close to killing myself to make it stop,” Buckingham wrote. “I want an emergency temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction requiring the [Bureau of Prisons] to resume my life-saving, medically necessary [gender dysphoria] treatment and accommodations before I kill myself.”

Buckingham submitted two declarations to support his case, including one from Dr. Dan H. Karasic, a Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry at the University of California San Francisco. Karasic recommended Buckingham be scheduled for immediate consultations for “facial feminization surgery, laser hair removal, and voice/speech therapy as gender affirming care.”

On September 18, United States Magistrate Judge David Christel filed a report determining that Buckingham was “likely to succeed” on the merits of his claims that his Eighth Amendment rights against cruel and unusual punishment had been violated.

“Buckingham has presented evidence that she suffers from a serious medical need, gender dysphoria. She also has presented evidence that Defendants were aware of her need for the Consultations,” Judge Christel wrote, referring to Buckingham with feminine pronouns. “The evidence shows BOP healthcare providers at FDC SeaTac referred Buckingham for the Consultations, and then BOP healthcare providers at FCI Butner discontinued the requests for the Consultations without reason and summarily denied her request for the facial feminization consultation … The undisputed evidence shows the Consultations are medically necessary.”

Judge Christel then recommended Buckingham’s motion for a preliminary injunction be granted, and that an injunction ordering the Bureau of Prisons to provide him with the cosmetic consultations be issued. Explicitly included were those for laser hair removal, facial feminization surgery, and voice training.

United States District Court Judge Ricardo Martinez adopted Christel’s recommendations, and gave the Bureau of Prisons 30 days to comply with the mandatory injunction.

From Judge Ricardo Martinez’ order following Judge Christel’s recommendations.

On October 8, the Bureau of Prisons filed an objection to Judge Christel’s report and recommendations, asking the court to either dismiss the case or pause it until a related class-action lawsuit—Kingdom v. Trump, brought by three transgender inmates challenging the Trump administration’s executive order banning gender-affirming care in federal prisons—is resolved.

“The defendants respectfully request that the Court dismiss Buckingham’s claims without prejudice—or, in the alternative, stay them pending resolution of the class claims in Kingdom v. Trump—and deny Buckingham’s motion for a preliminary injunction,” the filing stated.

Buckingham’s attorneys quickly countered, urging the court to uphold Judge Christel’s recommendations.

“Judge Christel correctly found that Ms. Buckingham has shown evidence of a serious medical need, that the BOP was aware of this need but failed to provide appropriate care, and that her ongoing distress and suicidal ideation constitute irreparable harm,” their response read. “Defendants have shown no hardship in providing the necessary consultations, nor have they offered valid grounds to stay or dismiss the case.”

The court has not yet ruled on the Bureau’s objection, but the preliminary injunction is likely to be reaffirmed. If Buckingham ultimately receives his requested “gender affirming” cosmetic procedures, it could mark one of the first successful challenges by a transgender inmate to the Trump administration’s executive restrictions.

German Establishment Willing To Commit Crime To Limit AfD Ability To Govern

Symbolbild. GROK youwatch

The establishment’s supposed love of democracy ends exactly when democracy—as expressed by the popular vote—stops loving the establishment.

And so, with the AfD looking increasingly likely to gain power in one or more German states after next year’s elections—especially in Saxony-Anhalt, where it recently crossed the 40% mark in a regional poll for the first time—mainstream figures are preparing to make it as difficult as possible for the party to govern. That is, if they can’t simply strip the AfD of its hard-won power altogether.

Politicians are considering destroying documents before the opposition enters office, and even handing state power to (mainstream) federal officials. And they are so convinced of their righteousness that they don’t mind discussing these options in public.

SPD Bundestag member Sebastian Fiedler said over the weekend that “if the scenario becomes reality after all and the AfD achieves an absolute majority in a federal state … we have a massive security problem!”

The Democrats can prevent it.

He added, “I’d rather hit the delete button” than hand over sensitive data—such as police and domestic intelligence information—to “extremists.”

The AfD has, of course, seen through this phoney ‘pro-democracy’ rhetoric, responding that when officials “openly toy with the possibility of breaking laws to combat an undesirable party, that is not protecting democracy, but rather yet another abuse of democracy by the SPD.”

Party spokesman Ringo Mühlmann added that far from being a “trivial offense,” withholding or deleting data would be a flat-out crime.

But this hasn’t put officials off. In fact, some have gone further, with Junge Freiheit pointing to discussions around the possibility of an AfD-run state government being stripped of its power “for the first time in the history of the Federal Republic,” meaning the state would instead be governed by a representative of the federal government, “a so-called state commissioner.”

Populism gains in The Netherlands, despite Wilders’ seeming failure

Geert Wilders blew it when he quit the Dutch government in June, thereby precipitating last week’s snap election. That doesn’t mean the populist right is in trouble – quite the opposite.

Wilders ostensibly withdrew his party, the Freedom Party (PVV), from the four-party government because he was frustrated his coalition partners were not going far enough on his signature policy, immigration restriction. But naked political calculation might also have been behind his decision, as polls showed the most moderate party in the coalition, the New Social Contract, had lost almost all of its support.

He could reasonably have thought that a new vote would return PVV to power without the need to compromise as much with a group that only joined him grudgingly.

That hope was foiled, though, by a few developments. First, all of the other coalition parties said they would not form a coalition with him again. Dutch voters who wanted dramatic change knew then that a vote for Wilders would likely be wasted.

Wilders was also hurt by the defection of one of his prominent members, Ingrid Coenradie, to another conservative populist party, JA21. The party immediately spiked in the polls and rose to as many as 13 seats in pre-election surveys before winning a record high nine seats.

Yet another right-populist competitor, Forum for Democracy (FvD), also changed its leadership before the vote. Long-time leader Thierry Baudet elevated a 28-year-old woman, Lidewij de Vos, to lead the party’s list. FvD also gained seats, capturing 7.

Finally, Wilders’ own campaign decisions likely hurt him. He avoided all of the early debates, only joining the fray in the campaign’s final days. This backfired as his opponents all ganged up on him in the final debates, depriving him of the chance to repeat his rapid, final week ascent from two years ago.

The result was that PVV dropped from 37 to 26 seats. But the combined total for the country’s four conservative populist parties – PVV, JA21, FvD, and the Farmer-Citizen Movement (BBB) – only declined by two seats, from 48 to 46 in the 150-seat chamber.

That total is still nearly one-third of all seats, a near record high for the Dutch Right. The total is even higher if one adds in the centre-right Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD) and the ultra-Calvinist SGP. These six parties hold 71 seats together. No working government can be formed without at least one, and probably more, of these parties.

That could happen, as the Dutch left suffered serious losses. The GreenLeft/Labour Party (GL/PvdA) alliance lost five seats, leading its leader, Franz Timmermans, to resign. The far-left Socialist Party also lost ground while other minor left-leaning parties stayed level.

In 2012, the Labour Party alone won 38 seats while other clearly leftist groupings won an additional 21. This year the entire left won a mere 30 seats.

This means that no Dutch government can be formed without significant right-leaning input. A centrist-focused government including the election’s narrow victor, Democrats 66 (D66), and the revitalised centrist Christian Democrats (CDA) could garner only 66 seats if it joined VVD. The centre needs partners – and VVD has ruled out sitting in government with GL/PvdA.

That leaves JA21 and perhaps BBB as the junior partners that comprise the next government. BBB has only a few seats but has a strong position in the powerful Dutch Senate; adding it to the other four parties would give the centre-right alliance 37 of that chamber’s 75 seats as well as a slim majority in the more powerful House.

The strong populist showing means that Dutch politics has shifted significantly rightward. For decades, Dutch politics tilted to the left, as the Labour Party and other leftist groups vastly outnumbered parties to VVD’s and CDA’s right. That balance has now completely moved, as the right tail is over 50 per cent larger than the left wing.

Wilders and PVV may not be the beneficiaries of this development. If JA21 does join government and can show it was effective, it could grow at PVV’s expense. That would likely be good for the broader conservative populist movement, as the ultimate goal of politics is to wield power, not make statements.

But Wilders and PVV could easily rebound if VVD goes back on its word and allies with GL/PvdA, or if a centre-right government proves too weak to enact at least rightist policies. He could then tell Dutch voters “I told you so” at the inevitable next vote and urge them to break the deadlock by giving PVV so many votes it would have to dominate a new government.

Either way, populism gains in the Netherlands. That, not Wilders’ seeming failure, is the real takeaway from the vote. It’s likely only a matter of time until the Dutch fully join Europe’s populist parade.

German Cities Cancel Christmas Markets over Islamist Terrorism Concerns

Illustration. AI generator

Multiple German Christmas markets have been cancelled this year amid concerns over Islamist terror attacks and the rising cost of providing security to attendees.

Merrymakers in the town of Overath in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia will have to look elsewhere for their mulled wine, bratwurst, and roasted nuts this year after organisers announced this week that its annual Christmas market will be cancelled.

In an effective admission that previous terror attacks had succeeded in their aim, the organisers said that they could not afford to enact the necessary security measures to prevent another attack, including hiring additional security officers and cordoning off the market to prevent car attacks.

Although they attempted to secure additional funding from the local city government, such efforts fell flat, the local Rheinische Post reported.

Additionally, the Christmas market in Kerpen has also been cancelled, according to the Kölner City Gazette.

“We were informed that we would have to cordon off Stiftsplatz from all sides. At the same time, we are not receiving any financial support from the city and have to manage everything ourselves,” explained organiser René Hövel, per Die Welt.

Christmas markets have not been the only celebrations to face cancellations, with the Kessenich Autumn Festival in Bonn stating that it had to shut down due to being “unable to implement a viable security concept that meets current requirements.”

Organiser said: “An autumn market without protective measures against potential dangers, such as uncontrolled vehicles, is not an option for us.”

The growing need for security measures at Christmas markets in Germany comes in the wake of multiple deadly Islamist terror attacks on innocent festival goers.

The first major attack was in 2016 at the Christmas market at the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in Berlin. Failed Tunisian asylum seeker Anis Amri intentionally drove a truck into the crowd of pedestrians at the market, leaving 12 people dead and dozens injured. Amri was killed days later in a police shootout in Milan.

Last year, a Saudi Arabian pro-asylum activist, who himself was granted asylum in Germany, drove a car at high speeds at merrymakers at a Christmas market in Magdeburg, killing six people and leaving 323 others injured.

This came just months after another asylum seeker, from Syria, went on a stabbing spree at a “diversity festival” in Solingen, killing three and injuring eight others.

‘All you damn MAGA freaks, you will follow Kirk to hell!’ – German Antifa claims responsibility for arson attack against AfD politician’s family vehicle

Antifa has claimed responsibility on the far-left platform IndyMedia for an arson attack that destroyed the car of AfD member of parliament Bernd Baumann in Hamburg, along with his wife’s vehicle and two others.

The politician’s car was deliberately set on fire and burned to a husk outside his home on Monday night, Nov. 3, 2025. The fire subsequently spread to three other parked cars nearby.

Baumann, no stranger to arson attacks from Antifa, took to social media to describe the attack against him.

“Dear friends, another Antifa attack on me, 4 cars burned in front of the house. The police woke me up at around 5 a.m., another cowardly terrorist attack, my and my wife’s car completely burned out. This time, Antifa attacked in such a way that the meters-high flames spread to three other cars. They belonged to my neighbors, all total losses, all completely burned out. So many families damaged without a second thought,” he said.

“The whole neighborhood is shocked. This morning I also saw the stunned, frightened children on their way to school with their parents. The school is only 200 meters away. And they all had to pass this long row of smoking rubble with the acrid smell of burning. ‘Mummy, Mummy, what’s going on here,’ they asked,” Baumann continued.

He then goes on to describe how Antifa is not only powerful on the streets of Hamburg but also amongst the political elite in both his city and the federal Bundestag, including with funding and active support from government institutions.

“Yes, what’s going on in Germany? It’s not just in my hometown, my street, my house that I have to put up with the power of the Antifa. Their arms, their power, their fervor and their zeal reach all the way to Berlin, right here in the Bundestag, right into the plenum. Here, the left-wing MP Ferat Kocak shouts the historic battle cry of the violent Antifa in the middle of the plenum with impunity,” said Baumann.

The statement, whose authenticity has not yet been confirmed by the police, claimed that Baumann’s BMW was destroyed with an incendiary device. It opened with a defiant message: “Fiery greetings to the accused, imprisoned, and fugitive Antifa members!”

Antifa publishes letter on Indymedia

The alleged reason for the attack is the upcoming trials “against Antifa in Dresden and Düsseldorf,” involving 13 individuals: “Thirteen comrades are accused of multiple attacks on Nazis and their structures in Germany and Hungary,” the statement read.

The group criticized the legal system’s increasing crackdown on militant leftists: “The harsh sentences in the first so-called Antifa East trial and against Hanna in September signal a strong will to repress and convict. Until now, the judiciary has often struggled to hand down sentences for membership in a criminal or terrorist organization against militant leftists who were not involved in guerrilla warfare. Now those in power are trying to set new standards.”

The statement emphasized the urgent need for militant action, referencing anti-immigrant and racist practices: 

“In times when the everyday, murderous, racist practices of Nazis, ordinary citizens, and cops are constantly increasing, when the military sealing off of Europe, Germany, and the USA against refugees is intensified, and the US president babbles about loving the smell of deportations in the morning and uses the military against anti-racist protest and resistance, in these times it is urgently necessary to organize militantly against fascism. In other words, to do exactly what the accused antifascists are now being charged with.”

The group concluded with a specific call to action and a threat directed at certain political groups: “Form one, two, three, four hammer gangs! Antifascist alert, whether with hammers or Molotov cocktails!” and “We don’t want to see any sexists, racists, or fascists in the city! All you damn MAGA freaks, you will follow Kirk to hell!”

The message ended by expressing solidarity with the accused: “Clara, Emmi, Luca, Nele, Moritz, Paula, Henry, Johann, Julian, Melissa, Nanuk, Paul, and Tobias: much strength to you, the fight continues! Freedom for Maja, no extradition of Zaid to Hungary!”

So far, there has been no arrest of any suspects in the attack on Baumann, but he has been the victim of several arson attacks in the past, including having his neighbor’s vehicle lit on fire this year.

The authenticity of the statement published on IndyMedia also remains open, as anyone can publish on the platform. However, many statements in the past have been verified, and the platform is seen as the preeminent platform for leftist groups to publish their claims of responsibility and other manifestos.

Antifa is especially active in cities like Hamburg, where it spreads terror and fear among anyone involved in right-wing politics. Just earlier this month, Remix News reported on three AfD politicians being doxxed in an extremely dangerous manner.

The far-left extremist portal “Indymedia,” associated with Antifa, was used to target three politicians of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in Hamburg, including the publishing of their home addresses and calls to take action against the “fascists.” The information was published both on the platform but also on stickers, which were put up all over the neighborhoods where the three politicians live.

As a result, a state investigation has been launched.

Two AfD city council members were targeted, as well as a district council member, with the stickers distributed in the neighborhoods of all three individuals. The stickers featured the address and photos of all three politicians, along with a message that read: “Attention, AfD fascists in your neighborhood.” 

The city has also seen AfD politicians being directly assaulted, including in an incident from 2023.

Woman dogged in England

By Eric Utter

Police in Britain recently told a woman walking her dog that she needed to exit, stage left, because Muslims were protesting nearby and would likely find the dog offensive.

Muslims gotta Muslim, you know.

The police essentially ordered her off of her own street, while the woman lobbied for her rights and her furry friend.

I wouldn’t have been as restrained … and would have likely have been involved in a run in with the U.K. coppers.

But those bobbies would be far more concerned with potential “Islamophobia” than with their own citizens’ rights.

They are barking up the wrong tree.

I would say this is emblematic of the larger fight, but this particular one seems big enough to me.

If a group of people migrate, most illegally, to a new country, and then try to change the norms and values of that country … they should be prevented from doing so. Especially if their norms and values involve “owning” women, dissing dogs, banning beer, eschewing music, and otherwise dictating to the natives.

Or, put another way, wanting to convert, enslave, or kill citizens of their “host” country.

Preventing this should be the minimum response.

It is better for a country to “go to the dogs” than to be conquered by radical Islam. Yet, if the latter occurs, the former will too. We all have a dog in this fight. It’s called freedom.

Once upon a time, England was a relatively safe, productive, proud, and even bucolic nation. It knew who it was and would fight to survive.

This is not the case anymore. Jolly Olde England is now neither jolly nor old. It is sad — and beset with new peoples and new customs … such as wearing a hijab, raping a young lass, or stabbing someone on the Tube.

Who let the dogs out, so to speak? We all did.

Instead of instructing citizens to remove their dogs from the migrant protesters’ sight, the U.K. constabulary should have considered siccing them on the protesters.  

To many of us, dogs are “man’s best friend.” In the needlessly dystopian future into which we appear headed, we will need to stand up for them. And ourselves, too.

UK: Nigerian migrant raped Bradford girl, 17, after tricking her into taxi ride and luring her to his flat

Chiemka Okoronta, 29, was travelling on the same bus as the victim | WEST YORKSHIRE POLICE

A Nigerian migrant has been jailed after raping a 17-year-old girl from Bradford multiple times after luring her into his home.

In March, Chiemka Okoronta, 29, was travelling on the same bus as the victim when the service was terminated early and passengers were told to use a taxi to get home.

The girl was left stranded as her phone had run out battery, and she was unable to contact her family or book a taxi.

The Nigerian, a student, offered to share a taxi with her. The teenager agreed and paid him £4.90 for her share of the ride.

Bradford Crown Court heard that the 29-year-old started to make “kissing movements” towards the teenager as they were travelling in the taxi together.

The court also heard that the Nigerian booked the taxi to take the pair back to his home instead of where the victim had asked to be dropped off.

Graham O’Sullivan, prosecuting, said: “She believed the taxi was going to Bradford bus station.

“In fact, the defendant had booked the taxi to take to his home address.

“When the taxi arrived, [she] got out and was asking the defendant where the bus station was.

“He began gesticulating and said if she came inside the flat, others would help her.

“Under the pretence of going to the toilet, the defendant told [the victim] to come upstairs.

“He then got her into a toilet, locked the door behind her, and raped her.”

After the ordeal had taken place, CCTV captured footage of the victim fleeing the flat and pleading for help from people nearby.

The victim told Bradford Crown Court: “This incident has turned my life upside down.

“I have flashbacks of what happened to me, I have nightmares.

“One minute I feel fine and the next minute it all comes back, I get upset and then frustrated and angered by what’s happened.”

Okoronta was sentenced to 10 years behind bars and will face deportation back to Nigeria after he is released.

Detective Constable Sue Sutcliffe said: “Okoronta took advantage of his victim and lured her to his home forcing her to engage in sexual activity.

“I would like to commend the victim in this case for her immense bravery in coming forward straight away to report this horrific crime.

“Her swift actions meant a fast-paced investigation.”

How Political Leaders Are Fast-Tracking the Islamification of Europe

Manchester, England, October 2, 2025: In the most violent act of antisemitic hatred Britain has seen in years, a Muslim man rams a car into a group of Jews on a sidewalk in front of a synagogue, exits the vehicle and begins stabbing other Jews. He is shot by the police. Two Jews are killed, one by the murderer and another who was shot accidentally by police.

Antisemitic violence has become deeply entrenched in the country. Since Hamas’s jihadist massacre of October 7, 2023, in Israel, it has increased considerably.

For more than 30 years, successive British governments have promised to fight antisemitism but never did. Now they deny reality. Antisemitism in the UK is now mostly Islamic antisemitism, perpetrated by radicalized Muslims. Islamic antisemitism in these times has become closely linked to a hatred of Israel, and it is now widespread and shared by a large part of the political “left.” On the evening of Hamas’s October 7, 2023 massacre, thousands of Muslims celebrated it in major cities across the country.

In London, the very day after Hamas had murdered 1,200 people in Israel and seized 251 more as hostages, Muslims and “leftists” organized and gathered together in anti-Israel demonstrations, which have continued ever since.

Two years later, on October 7, 2025, protesters assembled in London, Glasgow, and Edinburgh to “celebrate” the second anniversary of the massacre. The demonstrators shouted slogans such as “Israel is a terrorist state” and “death to the IDF.” “

We will continue to fight for the abolition of Zionism both in Palestine and in our own Jewish communities,” one speaker said.

Islamic violence in Europe has not been limited “just” to Jews. Some of the deadliest Islamist attacks in recent years appeared to be against all “infidels”: the jihadist attacks of July 7, 2005 on London’s mass-transit system; the slaughter at the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, the jihadist massacre at the Bataclan Theater in Paris; the truck-ramming attack in Nice on July 14, 2016 ; the Madrid and Barcelona terrorist attacks in Spain; New Year’s Eve mass rapes in Cologne, Germany; the Christmas Market rammings in Berlin in 2016 and Magdeburg in 2024; a murder at the Krudttønden cultural center in Copenhagen, Denmark, as well as countless individual murders: Father Jacques Hamel, Fusilier Lee Rigby, Ilan Halimi ; Theo van Gogh, Sarah Halimi, Mireille Knoll, to name just a few. In the United Kingdom, in 2017, at the end of a concert, a British Muslim suicide bomber of Libyan ancestry attacked the Manchester Arena: 22 people were murdered and 1,017 wounded.

For years, in the Muslim neighborhoods of London, Paris, Brussels, Malmö and major British cities, radicalized Islamic preachers have been spreading hatred against Jews, Israel and Western civilization — and calling, with impunity, for armed jihad. Anyone who so much as questions this call is labelled a racist or an Islamophobe.

British non-Muslims bemoaning Islamic terrorism are being jailed. In 2018, Paul Golding and Jayda Fransen, leaders of the right-wing movement Britain First, were sentenced to prison for having distributed leaflets allegedly showing “hostility toward Muslims and the Muslim faith.”

In November 2024, former soldier Daffron Williams posted on Facebook a simple observation about the rise of Islamic violence in the country: “Civil war is here. The only thing missing is bullets, that’s the next step.” He, too, was imprisoned.

In September 2025, Pete North, a blogger who had shared a meme saying “F*ck Hamas,” was arrested at his home and charged with “spreading racial hatred” – among many other such arrests.

Although Muslims make up only 6.5% of Britain’s population, successive governments, like those in France, Germany and the Netherlands, have shown signs of gradual submission to Islam. Since UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer was elected, this trend has intensified. In March, as antisemitism was exploding in the country, Starmer attended a Ramadan fast-breaking ceremony in Westminster Hall, where he announced that 2024 had been the “worst year on record” for “anti-Muslim hate crimes.”

Surveys have been exposing what British Muslims think. In March 2024, a poll conducted by the Henry Jackson Society reported that 32% of British Muslims favor the implementation of Sharia law in the UK; 48% feel more sympathy with Hamas than with Israel; 80% believe that Israel is committing genocide. 49% think Israel has no right to exist, and 46% think Jews in the UK — only 0.5 % of the population — have too much power.

Starmer recognized the non-existent “state of Palestine” in September and claimed that his decision helped US President Donald Trump strike a Gaza peace deal. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio responded that Starmer had bowed to pressure created by politically active “foreigners” and that his decision had actually been an “impediment to peace” in the Middle East.

The situation in the United Kingdom is worrying: what affects the UK affects all Western Europe. While the situation in France may seem a bit better, it is probably worse.

In France, a rabbi and three Jewish children were murdered by a radicalized Muslim in Toulouse on March 19, 2012. Jews were murdered in a kosher supermarket on January 9, 2015. Compared to the rest of Europe, it is in France that the largest number of individual Jews have been murdered by radicalized Muslims and the deadliest Islamic attacks have occurred.

The massacre at the Bataclan on November 13, 2015, left 130 dead and 413 wounded. A July 14, 2016 truck-ramming attack in Nice on people celebrating Bastille Day left 86 dead and 458 wounded. In 2020, the school teacher Samuel Paty was beheaded, and in 2016, a priest, Father Jacques Hamel, was beheaded while celebrating mass.

After each jihadist attack on Jews, government officials say they will combat antisemitism. They never have. Only one French politician, former MP Meyer Habib, in 2020, dared to denounce Islamic antisemitism explicitly. A text signed by 300 prominent French figures repudiated this “new anti-Semitism“: “In our recent history, eleven Jews have just been murdered – and some tortured – because they were Jewish by radical Islamists.” The statement was quickly forgotten. When a march against anti-Semitism was organized on November 13, 2023, roughly a month after the October 7 massacre, French President Emmanuel Macron chose not to attend.

In many mosques throughout France, imams preach hate. Sometimes, rarely, one is expelled. Commentators in France who criticize Islam are sentenced by the courts to heavy fines. The leader of the National Rally Party, Marine Le Pen, widely predicted to win the next presidential election, was sentenced to prison and banned from holding public office for alleged “embezzlement”. Former journalist Éric Zemmour, for instance, had to pay thousands of euros. Author Renaud Camus, also fined, now finds that no publisher will publish his books anymore. Hundreds of lesser-known figures have also been sentenced to fines and censorship.

Demonstrations against Israel in Paris have been as abundant as in London. Muslim and “leftist” protesters shout slogans hostile to Israel, including “Death to the Jews.” Polls conducted among French Muslims produced results as disquieting as those conducted among Muslims in the United Kingdom: in 2020, a poll showed that 38% of French Muslims think that Sharia law is more important than the laws of the Republic. A poll conducted in December 2023 showed that 45% of French Muslims think that the October 7 massacre was an “act of resistance”.

Similar conditions can be seen in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and Sweden.

While the UK Labour Party expelled its former leader, Jeremy Corbyn in 2024 over accusations of anti-Semitism, a French political party, La France Insoumise (France Unbowed), includes several MPs who are on record as having made anti-Semitic remarks. One of its MPs, Rima Hassan, openly supports Hamas.

France has a larger Muslim population than the United Kingdom: 10% of the total in 2019-2020. The number of Muslims in both countries keeps on growing. France also has a larger Jewish population than the United Kingdom: 438,500, or 0.88% of the French population, compared to 0.5% in England and Wales. French Jews, however, are fleeing the country, so their number is decreasing, as is the number of Jews in Western Europe altogether.

When Macron, at the UN General Assembly in September 2025, formally announced France’s recognition of a non-existent “state of Palestine”, he was quickly followed by United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Portugal and Belgium. Rubio slammed Macron’s decision as a “slap in the face to the victims of October 7” that served Hamas propaganda. Macron, who had not even made his “recognition” contingent upon Hamas releasing the Israeli hostages, declined to react.

US Ambassador to France Charles Kushner wrote in an open letter to Macron: “Public statements haranguing Israel and gestures toward recognition of a Palestinian state embolden extremists, fuel violence, and endanger Jewish life in France.”

Macron called Kushner’s words “unacceptable“.

Millions of people in Western Europe appear anxious about the future they see taking shape in their countries and have been turning to political parties that address their concerns. Since these parties have been growing in strength, current leaders are doing everything they can – such as preventing their leaders from running for election, or forming a coalition, or branding their policies as “fascism” and “Nazism” – in an apparent effort to bury these concerns. These are virtually the only parties that support Israel and denounce rising anti-Semitism by actually calling it by its name.

Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party is leading in voter polls, but the next elections will only take place in 2029. During the next four years, the ruling Labour Party can continue to radically transform the country.

In France, the next presidential election is scheduled for 2027. Le Pen, as mentioned, was leading the polls, but was declared ineligible to run in 2027 by a French court. Jordan Bardella, the current president of Le Pen’s party, has a good chance of winning, but in July 2025, on the order of the judges who charged Le Pen, masses of documents were seized from the party headquarters. Many judges in France practice “political justice”. Former President Nicolas Sarkozy recently began serving a five-year sentence handed down by leftist judges – despite no evidence of guilt and before his appeal has been heard. He is now behind bars. Bardella is already the subject of a complaint, allegedly for a pseudonymous online account that was racist. Bardella has stated, “I am sorry to disappoint you but I only have one Twitter account. I will not stand by comments I did not make.”

In 2024, in the last French legislative election, called by Macron, he established quarantine to contain the National Rally party, leaving conservative voters with a choice of only left-wing parties, resulting in a hung parliament and the impossibility of forming a stable government.

In Belgium, the Flemish Interest party is gaining ground, but is only present in the Flemish-speaking regions of the country and similarly facing a quarantine. The center-right New Flemish Alliance has been in power in the country since February 2025. It refuses to include Vlaams Belang in any coalition, supports “controlled migration”, has no clear position on Islam apart from objecting to the hijab headscarf in public, but did join the government in recognizing a “state of Palestine” and imposing sanctions on Israel.

In the Netherlands, Geert Wilders’ Party for Freedom won the most seats in the November 2023 elections, but Wilders was prevented from becoming prime minister by a coalition of other parties that formed a barrier. He recently withdrew his support for the government, and elections held last week resulted in his party receiving the second-largest share of the vote.

Alternative for Germany (AfD), that country’s second-largest party, is also being kept out of power by other parties. Germany’s domestic intelligence agency stated — apparently innocent of all irony — that the existence of AfD was “incompatible with the free democratic basic order”. AfD could be banned altogether.

The possibility that these parties will triumph over those anti-democratic maneuvers appears remote. The politicians in power who are carrying out these maneuvers show no intention of responding to the growing concerns of much of their public.

What is taking place in Western Europe is likely to get worse.

“The great replacement” — the eventuality of a basically Christian Europe being slowly replaced by a Muslim one — is not a conspiracy theory. It is rapidly underway. The birth rate of Muslim populations remains higher in Western Europe than that of non-Muslim populations, whose birth rates have been collapsing and are now vastly below the replacement level. Muslim births add to the numbers of those who have immigrated from the Muslim world. The proportion of Muslims in Western European countries continues exponentially to increase. Data further shows that Muslim populations are integrating less and less, and that the influence of radical Islam has also been exponentially increasing.

If profound changes do not occur, Western Europe tomorrow will be unrecognizable.

“If we do not stop Islamification now,” Geert Wilders said in 2007, “Eurabia and Netherabia will just be a matter of time”.

Eighteen years later, the Islamification of Europe seems only to have begun.
