Allah's Willing Executioners

by Lars Møller 

On May 19, 2026, the European Parliament inducted Angela Merkel into the inaugural European Order of Merit as a “Distinguished Member.” In this capacity, she holds a status comparable to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and former Polish President Lech Wałęsa. The award purportedly recognizes contributions to European integration and the defense of shared values. In a ceremony marked by protests from the Patriots for Europe alliance, who decried the event as an exercise in elite self-congratulation (complete with hired spectators to fill empty seats), Merkel was feted for a legacy that many Europeans now experience as a slow-motion catastrophe.

The honor bestowed on Merkel is politically tone-deaf, reflecting an equally arrogant and grotesque inversion of reality. Her signature policy—the 2015 decision to suspend the Dublin Regulation and declare “Wir schaffen das” (“We can do this”)—unleashed a civilian invasion by military-age males from Muslim-majority countries with cultural, religious, and civilizational frameworks profoundly at odds with the Judeo-Christian and humanist foundations of Europe. 

Far from an act of enlightened humanism, Merkel’s policy represented a catastrophic failure of prudence, foresight, and loyalty to the European peoples whose future she abruptly decided to wreck. A decade later, the consequences—social fragmentation, security crises, cultural erosion, and demographic displacement—stand as monuments of shame to a leader who prioritized narcissistic global acclaim over the intergenerational continuity of her own civilization.

The portents were immediate and visceral. On New Year’s Eve 2015 in Cologne, four months after Merkel’s “open invitation,” over 1,200 criminal complaints were filed, including hundreds of sexual assaults perpetrated by group predators from North Africa and the Middle East. Police reports and subsequent investigations documented coordinated mob attacks: women surrounded, groped, robbed, and violated in a manner alien to European public spaces.

Two-thirds of identified suspects in Cologne were from Morocco or Algeria, with a significant portion being asylum-seekers or illegal entrants. Similar incidents occurred in Hamburg, Stuttgart, and elsewhere. Merkel’s government initially downplayed the events in collusion with news media and authorities who hesitated to report the ethnic dimension. Rather than a mysterious breakdown of public order, the mass attacks epitomized the entirely predictable clash of incompatible norms: tribal sexual aggression—a single aspect of general dominance behavior—meeting a feminized, guilt-ridden European public sphere unprepared for mass importation of unassimilable populations.

As if a non-military resumption of the Ottoman-Habsburg Wars were underway, Western and Central Europe is being overrun by Muslims: between 2015 and 2016, Germany registered over 1.1 million asylum claims, with the EU absorbing millions more under the ripple effect of Merkel’s signal. In contrast to refugees fleeing war-torn Syria, a substantial number of arrivals were economic migrants from across Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia.

Integration statistics remain damning: elevated welfare dependency, disproportionate involvement in violent crime (particularly sexual offenses and gang activity), and parallel societies governed by Islamic norms rather than secular liberal, not to mention Cristian, ones. No-go zones, Sharia patrols, grooming scandals in Britain and Sweden, and repeated terrorist atrocities (Bataclan, Berlin Christmas market, Nice) trace their lineage to the lax border policies and willful blindness of the Merkel era.

The damage extends far beyond immediate security. Europe’s Judeo-Christian heritage—emphasizing individual dignity, equality before the law, secular governance, and the synthesis of Athens, Rome, and Jerusalem—faces existential dilution. Humanist Europe, rooted in Enlightenment reason and post-war reconciliation, presupposed a culturally cohesive demos capable of sustaining welfare states, democratic deliberation, and mutual trust.

Through ideological warfare and purposeful exploitation of Western tolerance, the mass immigration of non-Westerners is transforming the open society forever: majorities in some surveys supporting Sharia over national law, higher fertility rates accelerating demographic shifts, and lower social trust eroding the civic capital essential for liberal democracy. Native European birth rates hover below replacement (often 1.3–1.5), while migrant fertility and chain migration compound the transformation. Within decades, major European cities will become minority-European, with all that portends for political Islamization, cultural retreat, and native flight.

Merkel’s personal biography renders this betrayal especially galling. Without any children of her own, she personally has no stake in the future. Nevertheless, her decisions impose profound costs on other people’s children: girls facing heightened risks of harassment in public spaces, boys navigating fractured schools and identity crises, families bearing the fiscal burden of integration failures through higher taxes and strained services. Meanwhile, she secured her narcissistic reputation as “Mother Angela” or global humanitarian icon. Some refugees even named daughters after her—a poignant symbol of misplaced gratitude amid the broader societal fracture. This childless leader wagered Europe’s patrimony for applause in Davos and Strasbourg, unburdened by the intimate stakes of posterity.

The essay of Merkel’s tenure reveals a pattern of detachment from European realities. Her energy policy—phasing out nuclear power while deepening dependence on Russian gas via Nord Stream—left Europe vulnerable to coercive diplomacy, a predicament exposed in 2022. Austerity measures during the Eurozone crisis prioritized German export surpluses over southern cohesion. Centralization of power in Brussels further eroded national sovereignty, the very mechanism by which peoples exercise self-determination. Patriots for Europe have denounced this as a trifecta of calamities: uncontrolled migration, dangerous energy dependency, and democratic erosion.

The human and economic toll is quantifiable yet euphemized by establishment sources. Crime rates, welfare expenditures, and social cohesion indices have deteriorated in high-migration areas. Studies from Denmark and the Netherlands reveal that asylum and family-reunification migrants frequently represent net fiscal drains over lifetimes, contrasting with skilled economic migrants. Europe’s competitiveness declines as resources divert from innovation to containment. Trust in institutions plummets, fueling populist surges—not as irrational “far-right” reactions, but rational responses to elite gaslighting.

The wound may prove irreparable. Demographic momentum is difficult to reverse without politically unpalatable measures: mass deportations, stringent borders, and natalist policies for natives. Decades of guilt narratives and multicultural dogma have sapped cultural confidence, privileging imported identities over the host culture. Correctly interpreted, the Cologne anarchy supplied a prelude to a future society where women’s safety, free speech (threatened by blasphemy sensitivities), and secularism yield to imported theocratic pressures. Future generations inherit not a vibrant mosaic but balkanized polities prone to conflict.

The European Order of Merit, awarded amid boycotts and empty seats, symbolizes the establishment’s refusal to reckon with failure. Merkel’s defenders invoke humanitarianism and economic necessity, yet these ring hollow against the evidence of policy hubris. True humanism defends the particular inheritance of European civilization—the rule of law, artistic genius, scientific inquiry, and individual liberty forged over millennia—rather than sacrificing it at the altar of abstract universalism. Importing millions unprepared for, or hostile to, these values betrays Western civilization—and the people of the West.

Europe’s misfortunes are life-threatening, but self-inflicted. The award to Merkel is less triumph than obituary for a certain post-war consensus. Patriots for Europe and growing segments of the public recognize what elites deny: without reversal—secure borders, cultural reaffirmation, demographic renewal—the continent will become a pale shadow of its former self, unrecognizable to its ancestors and unsafe for its descendants. Merkel’s legacy is not integration but dissolution. History, written by those who endure the consequences, will judge her harshly. The children of Europe, unlike the former chancellor in Berlin, must live with them.

The orange lights of the street lamps, the wet asphalt, a black shadow savagely attacking a white body as if it were slitting a goat’s throat at the Mogadishu market. A video like this cannot be invented.

Instead, one thinks of those dark centuries we thought we had relegated to the margins of history, those times when heads were cut off to be displayed on bastions and the “defeated” were mutilated so that their flesh would speak louder than their deaths.

And I wondered if our main weakness has not become the inability to recognize barbarism when it appears before us.

We are in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

On the night of Kinnaird Avenue, a full-blown attempted decapitation, a tribal ritual imported from the Horn of Africa and transplanted onto Europe’s streets. A Sudanese man, around thirty years old, straddles the body of a local white man, a father of a family aged around forty, and begins to stab and saw. Not stab. Saw. With a Stanley utility knife, the kind you use to open IKEA boxes. The blade sinking into the throat screeches against the vertebrae, while passers-by shout: “He’s trying to cut his head off!”.

These are the consequences of a suicidal migration policy that has turned European cities into Third World suburbs. The migrant in question had “leave to remain.” That is, permission to stay. Permission granted by bureaucrats who have never walked at night on Kinnaird Avenue, nor in Molenbeek, nor in Rinkeby, nor in Saint-Denis.

“Diversity is our strength,” they keep repeating to us. Yes, the strength to turn a working-class neighborhood into a gladiatorial arena where the weakest are slaughtered in the street.

There is an anthropological abyss that the left refuses to recognize. It is not about “poor desperate migrants.” It is about men who carry a culture of tribal violence, of the clan, of revenge, of the knife, of sharia. In Somalia or Sudan, scenes like this – the man on the ground, the blade sawing the neck – are ordinary administration in settling scores between militias. Here with us they become “stabbing incidents.”

And language is the first battlefield: calling the aggressor “man,” the attempted decapitation “stabbing,” the helpless crowd watching “community.”

It is Orwellian Newspeak applied to multicultural massacre. And every time we downplay it, every time we look for “context,” every time we talk about “mental health” before even knowing the facts, we donate another corpse to the cult of multiculturalism. Does the mental health of the African throat-cutter count more than the life of the white father of a family? Is this the moral hierarchy of post-Christian Europe?

The philosopher Chantal Delsol, in Le Figaro, speaks of the “return of barbarism” against which “governments seem rather powerless.” Powerless?

We have become accustomed to a girl coming home from school, wearing a Star of David pendant, and a man slashing her face. She will remain disfigured for life. We have become accustomed to a Jewish teacher being attacked with a machete.

Belfast, a city already martyred by decades of sectarian divisions, now adds the wound of demographic invasion to its calvary. After the attempted decapitation, Belfast is burning. In the city’s neighborhoods, signs have appeared saying: “Women and children are not safe in this area.”

Schools and trains have been closed and stopped for fear of riots. Jonathan Hall, the counter-terrorism tsar, finally admitted that immigration is a “national security emergency.”

War is as ancient as cities, kingdoms and empires. It is one of the permanent tragedies of human history. Yet, even in its brutality, it remains linked to a purpose external to it. War is waged to defend a border, conquer territory, impose domination, preserve independence or ensure the survival of a people.

Barbarism begins when this purpose disappears behind the sheer enjoyment of destruction itself. A soldier can kill out of duty, fear, discipline or conviction. The barbarian kills and at the same time seeks to destroy the very humanity of the one he kills.

In ISIS-controlled territories, men were beheaded in front of cameras so that their death would be seen by the whole world. In Mexico, narcos hang mutilated bodies from overpasses or abandon human remains in public squares to terrorize their opponents. In Sudan, entire villages have been handed over to murder, looting and rape. On October 7, 2023, Jewish families were massacred, civilians assassinated, and images of their suffering turned into trophies meant to circulate on social media.

Belfast belongs to the same history.

On April 20, 1968, for the first time, a European politician, the Briton Enoch Powell, gave a dramatic and prophetic speech: “I seem to see this country madly building its own funeral pyre. In such circumstances, the only adequate measure is to reduce the rate of immigration to negligible figures and promptly adopt the necessary legislative and administrative measures. I contemplate the future and I am full of fear. Like the Romans, I see ‘the Tiber foaming with blood’.”

Criticism of multiculturalism earned Powell 100,000 letters of support. A Gallup poll found that 74 percent of the British population agreed with him. However, Powell was fired from his position as Defense Minister in the Conservative shadow government. The media demonized this politician, educated at Trinity College Cambridge, a Hellenist and poet.

The West opened its doors believing that progress was contagious, that the “noble savage” would learn the Magna Carta and respect for life. Instead it imported the bush, the savanna, the desert, the Koran, the madness, with its unwritten laws of blood and domination.

The Belfast victim struggles between life and death in a hospital bed. His eyes, perhaps, will no longer see the light. His children, if he has any, will forever carry the trauma of a father almost decapitated in the street. And the aggressor?He will be in a comfortable cell, assisted by state-paid lawyers, invoking childhood traumas or reverse “Islamophobia.” Meanwhile, other boats will cross the Channel, other permits will be granted, other neighborhoods will be “enriched.”

Until when?

Until another video shows another mutilated head in a European street?

Until the last natives, exasperated, decide that patience is over and that defending their own land and people is not a crime but a duty, before the Tiber foams with blood?

The world’s leading advocacy group for “transgender health” has chosen to hide the identities of affiliated medical professionals in the weeks after a top surgeon associated with the organization was exposed as having connections to notorious child trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

The World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) has disabled a search function on its website which had for years allowed visitors to identify physicians who pledge to adhere to their medical protocols.

The function was removed from the website some time in the weeks after surgeon Dr. Jess Ting, who has collaborated directly with WPATH and presented at their conferences, was revealed as having received funding from Epstein, and even performed a medical procedure at the convicted sex offender’s Manhattan townhouse.

At the beginning of February, social media posts began to circulate which had derived screenshots and information from newly released documents contained in the Department of Justice’s Epstein Library.

The financier was found to have donated large sums towards the advancement of “transgender surgeries,” including a $50,000 gift to the Mount Sinai Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery (CTMS), which Dr. Ting directs.

The CTMS, headed by Dr. Ting, has been a consistent contributor to WPATH’s scientific symposia. Dr. Ting and his surgical team have presented clinical outcomes and multiple research articles at these events to the WPATH professional community. In the weeks following the shocking connection, WPATH disabled a long-standing search function which allowed the public to view the names of doctors and clinics who paid membership dues to the organization and contributed to their academic conferences.

The last available instance of the clinic affiliate search option was archived on March 23. By April, it had been pulled off the site. The current directory has been protected and requires membership status.

While it is not clear what the direct motivation for this change involved, the result is decreased transparency surrounding the medical establishment’s involvement with a lobbying group with massive international influence.

Dr. Ting has had a longstanding professional relationship with the current WPATH president, trans-identified male genital surgeon Dr. Mark “Marci” Bowers. Dr. Ting, a Johns Hopkins-trained plastic and reconstructive surgeon, partnered with Dr. Bowers, who previously performed surgeries on victims of female genital mutilation. In 2017, the two men co-founded the Transgender Surgical Fellowship Program at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

Their program fundamentally transformed the training landscape for transsexual surgery in the United States. The two surgeons’ collaboration has been perhaps the most significant development in the field of “gender-affirming care” in its entire history. Whereas surgeons had previously passed down knowledge of such procedures through apprenticeships, Dr. Ting and Dr. Bowers sought to legitimize, standardize, and expand the field. Over the course of the past decade, that is precisely what they have accomplished.

While Dr. Bowers manages high-level international policy, medical consensus guidelines, and organizational leadership, Dr. Ting’s academic department at Mount Sinai serves as one of the primary sources generating the clinical data that supports WPATH’s Standards of Care – policies that have been adopted internationally in the field of transsexual drugs and procedures. According to the hospital’s website, Dr. Ting serves as the Director of the Transgender Surgical Fellowship Program, as well as the Attending Reconstructive Surgeon.

Dr. Ting has also served as a faculty member and co-chair for educational initiatives directly associated with WPATH’s Global Education Initiative (GEI), which is responsible for the organization’s professional training and certification standards. In 2018 and 2019, Mount Sinai co-sponsored the Live Surgery Conference for Gender Affirmation Procedures alongside WPATH. Dr. Ting and Dr. Bowers served as key panel hosts and featured surgeons, performing live-streamed surgeries for an international audience of medical professionals. In 2024, several research articles co-authored by Dr. Ting were presented at a WPATH conference in Lisbon, Portugal, on the topics of “facial feminization surgery” and “gender-affirming vaginoplasty.”

On January 30, the Trump administration updated the Department of Justice’s Epstein Library. In a highly publicized move, the DOJ publicly released over 3 million pages of investigative files, court records, and FBI documents related to the activities of the notorious child trafficker. The sheer volume of the data leak meant that journalists were working around the clock to parse the information. It wasn’t until weeks later that exchanges between Dr. Ting and Jeffrey Epstein surfaced on social media.

The Epstein files detail a heavy paper trail connecting the surgeon with the pedophile. A search of the Epstein files for Jess Ting reveals a collaboration rooted in institutional funding and off-the-record medical treatments. The connection dates back to as early as 2010, in the context of breast augmentation surgeries. Prominent New York fashion industry figure and the co-founder of Next Management modeling agency recommended Dr. Ting to Epstein after he inquired about a “boob job” for his personal assistant. In 2012 Epstein’s longtime personal executive assistant, Lesley Groff noted that she had “left another message for Dr. Jess Ting.”

In May 2016, Dr. Ting personally emailed Epstein to thank him for a $50,000 grant and to announce his new role as the surgical director of the “brand new transgender surgery program” at Mount Sinai. The funds were provided to the clinic in response to a 2013 request from Dr. Ting, after they had established a working relationship.

However, prior to the hefty donation, Dr. Ting had made at least one house call to Epstein’s Manhattan residence.

In October 2012, Dr. Ting performed a medical procedure on an unnamed female who was said to have fallen off an ATV and required stitches in her forehead. Rather than visiting a hospital, Epstein requested a personal visit from Dr. Ting, who can be seen at the Manhattan residence performing the procedure on the unidentified patient.

An itinerary for December 12, 2016, notes that Dr. Ting was scheduled to “stop by” the financier’s Manhattan residence once more, while a follow-up email confirmed his attendance. Epstein had at this point become a patient of Dr. Ting’s, and multiple correspondences confirm that the millionaire had been seeing the surgeon for medical issues related to his prostate.

More disturbingly, email exchanges in March 2013 between Dr. Ting and Epstein associates indicate that he visited “Jeffrey’s island” in order to “play with his toys.”

“Hello, Dr. Ting. Jeffrey would like you to enjoy a day on his island during your vacation,” reads one correspondence. “We can have you and your family picked up from St. John… [and] brought to Jeffrey’s island to play with his ‘toys’ and have some lunch.” To date, Dr. Ting has not provided a statement clarifying the context of the remark, nor what occurred during his trip.

While Dr. Ting has not been accused of any wrongdoing, he maintained his relationship with Epstein well after the first allegations and charges were filed against him.

When the surgeon visited Epstein’s island in 2013, the wealthy financier had already been required to register as a sex offender, as a result of a 2008 plea bargain. Epstein had pled guilty in Palm Beach County, Florida, on June 30 to charges that included the procurement of minors to engage in prostitution. He was sentenced to 18 months in jail, of which he served 13 months.

The Mount Sinai director was aware of the ongoing controversy surrounding Epstein at the time, as evidenced by a 2015 communication. Dr. Ting had received an email from journalist David Ingram of Reuters requesting an interview. “I’m working on a story about the philanthropist Jeffrey Epstein. I understand he has helped fund some of your work, and I’m interested in learning more about his philanthropy and whether it has been affected by the recent news about him,” read Ingram’s message.

Dr. Ting forwarded the email to Epstein’s assistant Lesley Groff asking whether he should respond to the email. However, the interview never took place.

Dr. Ting is perhaps most well-known for being a part of the team that performed genital surgery on a 17 year-old Jazz Jennings, and featured in several episodes of the popular reality TV program I am Jazz. During a post-operative follow-up evaluation in 2019, both Dr. Ting and Dr. Bowers discuss the appearance of the teen’s genitals. Dr. Bowers takes a photo of Jennings’ private parts while joking that he “could be a porn star” based on the amount of pictures the surgeon had taken of him.

In December 2021, WPATH released the draft version of the organization’s latest Standards of Care (SOC 8). The project was overseen by WPATH president Dr. Bowers, and former president and leading figure Dr. Eli Coleman. While Dr. Ting is not explicitly named in the SOC 8, research provided by his team at Mount Sinai played a role in the development of the protocols.

The SOC 8 was met with public outcry for attempting to establish a “eunuch gender identity.” Reduxx led a series of investigations into WPATH’s collaboration with a castration fetish forum, known as the Eunuch Archive, when developing the eunuch chapter of their guidelines.

The Eunuch Archive hosted a fiction section which contained thousands of erotic stories about boys being castrated – both surgically and chemically – which were among the most popular erotica in the forum. Members also shared graphic media depicting castrations for pornographic purposes.

Additionally, the Eunuch Archive forum was co-founded by a man who is now a convicted pedophile.

Reduxx revealed that WPATH leaders, and specifically Eli Coleman, were said to have personally invited the anonymous members of the pedophilic forum to contribute to the SOC 8 guidelines. In at least one instance, forum administrator Thomas Johnson (using the screen name “Jesus”) uploaded and shared a video of Dr. Bowers performing genital surgery to the Eunuch Archive for erotic purposes.

Following the finalized publication of the SOC 8, WPATH suddenly revised the document by removing specific age guidelines for the medical “transitioning” of minors.

A Catholic parish in Milan will set aside space for young Muslims to perform Islamic prayers during its summer oratory program, with the parish priest defending the initiative by saying that Christians and Muslims “pray to the same God.”

On June 8, Father Giovanni Salatino, parish priest of San Giovanni Bosco in the Baggio district of Milan, Italy, announced that Muslims participating in this year’s parish summer camp program will be able to gather for Islamic prayer in a dedicated area during the activities. Salatino presented the initiative as the implementation of a diocesan document emphasizing “interreligious dialogue” which is itself based upon the Vatican II declaration Nostra Aetate.

“Even though there are not many Muslim boys in Baggio, the oratory will be organized so that they too can have their own moment of prayer,” the official statement reads. “I am fortunate to have some older youth leaders who are Muslim; they will therefore be the ones to lead the prayer with the boys.”

“Quite simply,” Salatino explains, “[the Muslims] too will follow, like everyone else, a brief reflection on the value proposed each day (following the storyline of the year, on the life of St. Francis).”

“I imagine the prayer could conclude with the Islamic formula Bismillah, which invokes the name of God, the compassionate and merciful,” the priest concludes. “It is always better to help young people to pray: we pray to the same God, certainly within different religious traditions. And recognizing the other’s identity is in the spirit of the Gospel.”

The announcement comes several months after the Archdiocese of Milan’s Office for Ecumenism and Interreligious Dialogue published a document in order to reform the Ambrosian oratory system. The document was issued on October 28, 2025. The text redefines the oratory as a “laboratory of interreligious encounter” open to Islamic communities and to moments of non‑Christian prayer.

According to the document, “welcoming everyone, driven by humanitarian and social reasons” is not a dilution of Christian identity, but “to live out the dynamic of the Incarnation, in which God does not suppress diversity, but assumes it.” The San Giovanni Bosco parish initiative is a self-declared practical application of that diocesan document.

The Archdiocese of Milan has been at the center of numerous controversies in recent months. With regard to its increasingly expansive approach to ecumenism, on May 11 the archdiocesan website announced the building of a new “inclusive and futuristic” monastery.

Although formally dedicated to St. Ambrose, the project includes a church, cloister, cultural events areas, and facilities explicitly designed for interaction among different religions. The complex will also incorporate ecological elements such as a “Garden of Religions,” where monotheistic religions will be represented by a plant. Archbishop Mario Delpini’s remarks presented all religions as equally valid paths to God.

The Sudanese migrant accused of the Belfast knife attack that triggered widespread riots this week is a former policeman from a prominent family in northern Sudan, according to new reports.

Friends told British media that Hadi Alodid briefly served with the police in Khartoum before leaving the country after the outbreak of civil war in 2023.

The revelation emerged as Northern Ireland experienced a second night of disorder, with police making 16 arrests and reporting injuries to 12 officers.

The disturbances followed Monday’s attack on local man Stephen Ogilvie, who suffered life-changing injuries including the loss of his left eye.

A 30-year-old Sudanese migrant, Hadi Alodid, has since been charged with attempted murder, possession of a knife in a public place, and threatening to kill a hospital worker.

The attack has reignited political debate over immigration and asylum policy. It has emerged that Alodid entered Northern Ireland via the Republic of Ireland in 2023 and was granted refugee status under a fast-track Home Office asylum scheme.

Riot police deployed water cannons and fired baton rounds as demonstrators hurled bricks, bottles, and petrol bombs, set bins alight, and attempted to breach a nearby wastewater pumping station.

A vehicle at a Department for Infrastructure depot was set on fire, causing gas cylinders to explode. Fire and rescue service crews responded to dozens of incidents overnight, including fires involving vehicles, buildings, and industrial bins.

Police said disorder also broke out in Londonderry and Portadown.

Northern Ireland Secretary Hilary Benn condemned the “racist thuggery,” arguing that attacks on people and property based on the colour of their skin could be described in no other way. He said some car drivers had reportedly been stopped and questioned about their nationality.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer also condemned the violence, warning that those responsible would “feel the full force of the law.”

Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson said there was “no evidence” the violence had been coordinated by loyalist paramilitary groups, but warned of “significant coordination” through social media platforms. He called on technology companies to remove content encouraging disorder, saying online activity had created “momentum, drive, and toxicity.”

The British government has signalled plans to tighten social media rules in times of “crisis” amid concerns that graphic footage of the attack and perceived inflammatory posts on social media—especially those by U.S. billionaire Elon Musk and British right-wing activist Tommy Robinson—had helped inflame tensions.

However, Reform UK politician and commentator Matt Goodwin said it was “not social media” or “the far right” that was inflaming tensions, but “the very deliberate policy of mass uncontrolled immigration and open borders,” adding that “this policy has to end or it will destroy Western nations.”

The unrest comes amid wider public debate over crime, policing, and immigration following recent protests across England over the murder of 18-year-old Henry Nowak.

President Donald Trump was right to suggest that there is a national security risk posed by open borders, the British government’s top terrorism expert has belatedly admitted in the wake of yet another gruesome, alleged migrant-versus-native outrage that triggered riots.

Senior lawyer Jonathan Hall, who has been the Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation since 2019 and is the Independent Reviewer of State Threats Legislation under the National Security Act 2023, has demonstrated his remarkable perspicacity by noting that mass migration carries a security risk and a potential threat to “the health of the nation”.

Responding to the alleged “attempted beheading” of a man in Belfast on Monday night, the arrest of a Sudanese asylum seeker suspect by police, and the protests-cum-riots that have followed, watchdog boss Hall said that in the past the British government’s idea of security threats were generally focussed on home-grown terror, but that the “extraordinarily destabilising” influence of migrant crime should force a rethink.

Stating the longstanding government orthodoxy that mass migration is something to be viewed in terms of economics, Hall said:

I’m interested in the question of whether or not foreign nationality of recent migrants is becoming more relevant to the overall national security picture… it makes me think of something that I really haven’t heard a good answer to from the UK, which is what was said in Trump’s National Security Strategy in November 2025, and it was quite striking at the time.

He said, in perhaps rather overblown rhetoric that, well, this is destabilisation of Europe and he put an awful lot of that down to migration. Now, you may not agree with the language but I think it does raise the question that if certain countries are more likely, either to commit very serious offences or particular offences, or to get involved with state-backed activity, do we need to start thinking about migration now not simply in terms of the economy and housing, but also in terms of national security.

There never was a British response to President Trump’s warning to Europe that it was suffering a self-imposed process of “civilizational erasure”, he said. ‘Terror watchdog’ boss Hall continued:

I think it’s absolutely legitimate to talk about immigration in the context of national security and for myself I think it’s a conversation that’s been raised by the U.S. White House, and at the moment I haven’t heard a response, I’ve just heard silence.

The remarks came in an interview with the BBC, which is increasingly perceived as having done as much as any other body in Britain to suppress open discussion of any negatives associated with open borders. For the comments to be made on the public broadcaster demonstrates the speed with which the Overton Window is shifting, by framing the question with an acknowledgement that many had hitherto felt unable to discuss it for fear of appearing racist.

The discussion, on Radio Four’s flagship current affairs Today Programme, came with framing questions from the BBC presenter that clearly telegraphed that while discussions of the negatives of mass migration had been strongly discouraged in the past, even amounting to a de facto ban, such a prohibition was melting away. The interviewer posited that such discussions had never been had in establishment circles before because “people are worried, aren’t they? Worried about seeming to be racist, worried about encouraging the kind of criminality you’ve seen on the streets of Belfast”, and asked Hall whether the security threat of migration is now a “legitimate part of the political discussion”, to which he replied in the affirmative, saying it was “completely” so.

"It's absolutely legitimate to talk about migration in the context of national security."

Hall followed up these remarks with an op-ed in Britain’s newspaper of record The Times, another clear indication that the British political establishment is signalling consent for migration to be discussed critically. Hall again criticised the choice of “cultural nationalist language” and “hyperbole” in President Trump’s criticism of Europe’s open borders policies, saying it could simply be “ignored” by some. Nevertheless, he said:

But I find it striking that so close an ally should say that European migration policies are “transforming the continent and creating strife”, and that these are matters relevant to the United States’ own national security. This begs the question, is immigration relevant to ours? …

… There was little online speculation about whether the assailant was a terrorist, so the public seems to have priced in the possibility of non-ideological violence after the Southport attack. But the sense of disturbance to the nation’s wellbeing can be just as significant as terrorism.

There are signs that the government recognises the salience of these issues. In April’s cohesion strategy it referred to the social cohesion as “a vital front in the resilience of our national security”. But if I am right that current patterns of migration have a national security dimension, then this must be relevant to policy, whether the government agrees with the tone of Trump’s document, or not.

As Breitbart News reported, the Trump White House’s new U.S. National Security Strategy in 2025 called out European states, including the United Kingdom, for undermining themselves with damaging policies. As well as economic failures, undermining sovereignty and liberty, censoring freedom of speech, and suppressing political dissidents, the document took aim at migration policies that are “transforming the continent and creating strife”, with a “loss of national identities and self-confidence”. Europe’s economic issues are “eclipsed by the real and more stark prospect of civilizational erasure”, the administration found.

The thawing taboo surrounding immigration may be spreading within the policy-end of the discussion inhabited by professionals like top legal thinker Hall, but the political part of the government remains firmly wedded to the old paradigm, for now. A stark illustration of this orthodoxy came in Parliament this week when discussion of the “attempted beheading” in Belfast prompted a stern rebuke.

Irish Unionist parliamentarian Jim Allister asked the government in the Commons chamber of the knife attack: “We are all shocked by the sheer savagery of this attack… what will be done to stop the importation of alien cultures which thinks its appropriate to try and behead somebody in the United Kingdom?”. Speaking for the government was Northern Ireland Secretary Hilary Benn, who adopted a chastising schoolmarm aspect to respond, with raised eyebrows: “I am sorry [he]… used the word ‘alien culture’, because what exactly is he referring to?”.

Veteran parliamentary sketch writer Quentin Letts noted that, unheard by the television cameras as their microphones had been muted, opposition Members chanted that the alien culture to which Allister referred was “beheading”. Allister later added that he believed that Benn’s making a show of taking offence at a phrase like “alien cultures” exchange showed how out of touch the government is.

“They do not realise that mass, uncontrolled immigration which had brought people of violent disposition into the hearts of our communities, and that has imported an alien culture,” he said.

The Museum of Guadalajara in Spain is under fire for an exhibition that “reimagines” the Virgin Mary using trans-identified male models and fetish-inspired imagery, drawing condemnation from women’s rights advocates and Catholic groups alike.

Opened to the public on May 7 and running until June 21, Alonso Cano: Like a Virgin claims to be an attempt to develop a “contemporary ideological discourse on sexuality, gender, and the ‘re-appropriation’ of the female body in art.”

According to the official description issued by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports of Castilla-La Mancha, the exhibit is a collaborative project by students at the Elena de la Cruz School of Art and was inspired by one of the Museum’s most important pieces: Alonso Cano’s 17th century painting La Virgen de la Leche.

The classic painting depicts the Virgin Mary breastfeeding the infant Christ, and is one of the most significant works in the Virgo Lactans (“Nursing Virgin”) tradition, an iconography that is said to emphasize both Mary’s motherhood and Christ’s humanity. In medieval and Renaissance art, depictions of the Virgin Mary breastfeeding were relatively common, but after the Counter-Reformation, many church authorities became uncomfortable with depictions of the Virgin Mary exposing her breast, and the motif gradually fell out of favor in Spain.

Rather than presenting the painting solely as a historical masterpiece, the exhibition claims to use it as a starting point for a “conversation” about the representation and censorship of womanhood in religious imagery, and changing cultural attitudes from the early modern period to the present day. The exhibition also draws connections between Baroque art and modern fashion and pop culture, invoking figures such as Madonna and Alexander McQueen.

But the art project is drawing outrage from women’s rights groups and Catholic organizations alike as both respond to the use of fetishism and transgenderism to represent both the female body and the “reimagined” image of the Virgin Mary.

Cómo decir sin decirlo que cualquier tema exclusivo de las mujeres es una birria si no incluye hombres.

Photos from within the exhibit posted by InfoVaticana show portraits of multiple trans-identified male models wearing sexualized women’s lingerie and exposing their “breasts.” Other portraits of the men show them wearing robes, halos, and crowns directly inspired by various artistic depictions of the Virgin Mary.

The model’s images are also shown throughout the exhibit individually, peppered between different statues, icons, and paintings of the Virgin Mary.

Due to the exhibit’s use of heavily Catholic iconography, Catholic groups in Spain are attempting to push back against what they have declared as an insult to their faith.

The Christian Lawyers Association of Spain announced they are taking legal action against those responsible for the exhibit, calling it a blasphemous use of the “spiritual and sacred meaning of Marian iconography.” The group has submitted a complaint with the Court of First Instance of Guadalajara as part of an administrative appeal filed against the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports of Castilla-La Mancha for having authorized the exhibition.

The association is also seeking to have criminal charges filed against the organizers under Article 525 of the Spanish Penal Code, which stipulates that individuals who publicly offend, deride, or vilify the dogmas, beliefs, rituals, or feelings of religious communities can be punished, primarily with financial fines.

But the Ministry’s regional spokesperson, Ángel Fernández, has defended the exhibit as being a demonstration of the artistic and creative freedom for the students of the Elena de la Cruz School of Art.

“We are educating young people in a democracy, under a set of principles,” Fernández stated, arguing that one of the fundamental principles of democracy is “freedom of expression and artistic, literary, and scientific freedom, and the idea that we should be free individuals.”

This is not the first time trans-identified males have been used to represent women and motherhood in art.

In 2021, online zine Feminist featured the work of Argentina-based photographer Kenny Lemes. While five pieces of Lemes’ art were posted in total, one in particular featured a seemingly naked male cradling a baby, which was suckling at a rubber nipple that had been affixed to the male model’s own.

Lemes told the outlet that the purpose of the photo was to “[expand] the gaze on bodies,” claiming it was a “very important political act one discovers the potency of existing, proudly, on the edges of hetero-patriarchal thinking.”

A disturbing photo of a nude male "breastfeeding" a baby while wearing rubber nipples is going viral on social media.

The photo can be traced back to artist Kenny Lemes, who described it as "binary shifting" and "challenging hetero-patriarchal thinking."https://t.co/Jqx8m8YjLt

The zine was later forced to delete the photo due to overwhelming backlash, even amongst liberal feminist readers, who implored Lemes not to use real babies in highly controversial art.

In 2023, the Gender Museum (KØN) in Aarhus, Denmark, drew similar backlash after erecting a statue of a naked trans-identified male breastfeeding a baby. The nude figure, constructed in 2021 as a self-portrait by Aske Kreilgaard, is depicted with exposed male genitals and breasts to which he is holding a feeding baby.

The global managerial class of bureaucrats, bankers, politicians, corporate heads, and NGOs are committed to fomenting chaos and violence in Western nations.  In the name of fighting the imaginary “climate change” hobgoblin, they outlaw inexpensive forms of energy and push us toward a carbon-tracking system that justifies ever more intrusive forms of mass surveillance.  In the name of fighting exotic pandemics, they justify mass lockdowns, central bank digital currencies, and “vaccine” passports.  By claiming that man-made “climate change” causes new pandemics and by blaming Western industrialized societies for causing “climate change,” the global managerial class insists that Western nations must accept “climate refugees” as part of their rolling atonement for past industrial “sins.”  

It’s all excrement-laden propaganda disguised as “science” and “virtue.”  Even worse, all these risible lies represent a sustained attack on Western peoples.  Consider how malicious these globalists really are: They have spent at least the last half-century scaring children into believing that modern industry is imminently killing the planet.  We have been inundated with so much “global warming/cooling/climate change/extreme weather” mass hysteria for so long that we no longer recognize how absolutely evil these enviro-fascist, nut-job propagandists are.  

If a stranger came to our homes, absconded with our children, and spent the next fifteen years brainwashing them to believe that the world was coming to an end, we would be horrified.  We would call the kidnappers “child abusers” and “monsters.”  We would do everything we could to heal the minds of our troubled children.  Yet in elementary school classrooms in Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States, and across the European Union, little kids are conditioned to believe in the lie that innovation, productivity, material wealth, and industry are poisons that will kill them all.  It’s insane.  And it’s even more insane that we let it happen.

The “climate change” con is big business.  Crony capitalism works best when authoritarian governments mandate that everybody purchase windmills, solar panels, energy-efficient this, net-zero-modulated that.  When politicians and bureaucrats make it prohibitively expensive for small companies to produce anything, Big Business obtains a government-regulated monopoly over entire industrial sectors.  Those corporate monopolies kick back a chunk of the loot to the politicians, regulators, and NGOs, and all the money-making conspirators stay rich and happy.

Who loses?  The free market loses.  When only big corporations can afford to make things, innovation in Europe resembles that of Africa.  Ordinary citizens lose because they are effectively blocked from using their brainpower and muscle-power to build and sell new things that generate income, capital, and social mobility.  Society loses because the marketplace of ideas turns into a centrally-managed cartel run by a couple of multinational investment houses.  

Who wins?  The global managerial class wins.  All these central managers who are committed to tracking and tracing our every movement and thought depend upon a global system that turns carbon-based human beings who exhale carbon-bonded molecules with each breath into accounting units that must be managed, programmed, and controlled as part of globalism’s unspoken social contract imposed upon citizens for the “privilege” of living.  Communists, fascists, and sundry sordid authoritarians of the world have united under the banners of “net-zero” initiatives and “saving the planet” exhortations because “saving the planet” gives them an excuse to monitor, punish, and even eliminate you.  

After all, how “selfish” must one person be to believe that his wants and needs are more important than “saving the planet” from destruction?  Totalitarianism thrives on fairytales that teach the value of working for “the greater good,” and every one of those fairytales is inherently murderous.  For the sake of the “collective,” the “green new deal” fanatics believe that some people must die!  They won’t be the ones volunteering to jump into the volcano or be sacrificed on the Mayan temple.  They will choose the “nonbelievers” for the coming “net-zero” bloodletting. 

And that bloodletting has already begun!  How in the world could a sane person justify moving millions of military-aged men from third-world hellholes into advanced Western nations?  There is nothing about mass migration that makes sense if the goal is to make host nations stronger.  The people being dropped off in the United States and Europe have no skills or education.  They do not speak English, French, Swedish, Danish, Polish, Italian, Spanish, or German.  They have no interest in learning those languages.  They have no interest in assimilation.  They prefer to take over historic villages, overwhelm the schools, turn Christian churches into mosques, transform downtown shops into foreign enclaves and black-market hubs, rape the locals, and drain the taxpayer-funded social safety net.  Just as parasites feed on weakened hosts until ultimately killing them, invading armies of foreign nationals are devouring enfeebled Western nations until delivering their final death blows.  

None of this is “politically correct” to say out loud, of course.  Our global managerial class has spent the last thirty years drumming into our brains the nonsensical refrain, “Diversity is our strength!”  “Multiculturalism” — the simultaneous existence of many different cultures — is supposed to be superior to any one single culture.  How does that make any sense?  Is it easier for a general to command troops if all the soldiers speak different languages?  Is there less chance of mutiny on a naval vessel if every sailor adheres to different customs?  Does a religious temple serve a purpose if all the congregants pray to different gods?  Of course not.  Without common cultural bonds, human beings rarely work well together.  

Why, then, should Western nations be transformed into meccas for multiculturalism?  Why in the world would a rational person celebrate the transformation of European and American cities into “no-go zones” where tribes of different peoples fight against each other for power and position?  Why are Western political parties demanding mass amnesty for millions of foreigners?  How does any of this make any sense unless the intent is to destroy individual Western nations?

And if Western nations are under attack, does it not seem reasonable for Western citizens to prepare to defend themselves?  Vice President Vance thinks Westerners should be doing exactly that.  After a man from a foreign culture brutally murdered British university student Henry Nowak, Vance condemned authorities’ calculated choice to sacrifice a native son on the altar of forced “diversity”: 

Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit.  His murder is as tragic as it is enraging.  He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it.  Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last.  Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response — the only response — is righteous anger.

In the week since Nowak’s murderer was convicted, four Afghan migrants are facing prosecution in Bristol for raping a seventeen-year-old girl, there was a mass stabbing in Manchester, and a Sudanese national attempted to behead an Irishman in Belfast.  Does the British government still contend that “diversity is our strength”?  Of course it does.  Rather than blaming foreign nationals for murdering British citizens, the British Establishment is blaming British citizens for noticing that their nation is under attack.  

The West is at war with foreign invaders, and Western governments are at war with imaginary “climate change.”  New Western leaders must take over before there is no West left.

Two Iraqis are on trial in the German city of Essen for allegedly raping a 7-year-old who lived next door to them. There is only one news report on this case in all of Germany, and it involves a short video clip from RTL West that was released yesterday.

Currently, the short video clip details that the suspects are two brothers, 18 and 21 years old, and are accused of raping a 7-year-old friend of their sister on two different occasions. The girl lived next door to the brothers.

The Essen District Court will deliver in August.

These are all the details known about the case and after a search, there are no other German news reports currently available. This could have to do with the fact that a minor was targeted, but also due to the nationalities of those involved in the case. If information on a verdict is released, Remix News provide an update on this case.

Less than two weeks ago, an 11-year-old girl attending a special needs school in Koblenz, Rhineland-Palatinate, became the victim of a horrific sexual assault from an Afghan migrant, who threatened her through the assault at knifepoint inside a school toilet. Shockingly, he allegedly did not conduct the assault alone, but he had an accomplice who has still not been apprehended.

Providing insight into the terrifying ordeal, Bilal Colak, the family’s lawyer, told Bild newspaper: “The girl told me that one of the two young men was at the scene of the abuse, pulled down his pants. A knife was also involved.“

“Samira,” a pseudonym used to protect the child’s identity, was inside her school on April 28 when a 20-year-old unemployed Afghan man named Nassar S. allegedly breached school security to sexually abuse her. The targeted facility was the Hans-Zulliger-School, which features a prominent warning sign at its entrance reading: “School grounds. Entry prohibited for unauthorized persons.“

It has now been revealed that the Belfast man who was nearly beheaded by an African migrant, Stephen Ogilvie, was helping the same man who attacked him move in as a next door neighbor just four days before the attack.

Reminiscent of the case of a Rwandan national who killed a French priest who sheltered him after having been taken in by the Catholic community of Montfort after his release from preventive detention for setting fire to the cathedral in Nantes. No good deed goes unpunished.
