Police Raids and New Allegations Fuel Political Chaos in Romania
Romania’s unprecedented political turmoil around the canceled presidential election seems unlikely to subside anytime soon, as authorities continue to uncover further details about the campaign of a little-known independent candidate, Călin Georgescu, and his shocking victory in the first round of the now-annulled race.
As we also reported, the country’s Constitutional Court ordered the entire election to be redone from scratch after declassified intelligence reports claimed a foreign actor (i.e. Russia) interfered in the election campaign by promoting Georgescu on social media with 25,000 fake accounts while real influencers were paid from separate but undisclosed domestic sources to do the same.
Despite these allegations, the Romanian Left and Right seem to be united in their outrage over the last-minute cancellation of the elections. The court’s decision was strongly criticized by politicians and parties across political lines, including by Georgescu’s pro-EU, liberal second-round contender Elena Lasconi, who accused the socialist-aligned judges of “destroying democracy” just to give the ruling socialist party (PSD) another chance at the presidency.The move might also serve as a dangerous precedent for the future of democracy across Europe. You don’t like the outcome? Just blame Russia and annul the vote, easy.
Nonetheless, the police conducted several raids linked to Georgescu over the weekend, no doubt seen by many as the establishment’s newest attempt to discredit him and retroactively justify the election annulment.
One of the raids involved searching the homes of a businessman suspected of having illegally assisted Georgescu’s campaign by financing undisclosed pro-Georgescu content on TikTok with nearly €1 million. In a separate operation, the police detained 20 people reportedly belonging to Georgescu’s private security team on their way to a polling station after finding an “arsenal” of illegal weapons and large sums of money in their cars, including their leader who runs a mercenary group in the Congo.
The financier behind Georgescu’s ‘0 lei’ campaign
The three properties raided in the city of Brașov belong to programmer-turned-business owner Bogdan Peșchir, who allegedly financed Georgescu’s campaign with €1 million, mostly through a South African firm, including at least €360,000 paid directly from his TikTok account “bogpr” to other influencers on the site at a rate of up to €950 per post.
Undisclosed political promotion is not only against TikTok’s terms of service but is also against the law, especially given that Georgescu’s officially declared campaign budget was €0 and he proudly flaunted his ‘grassroots’ support in every interview leading up to the election.
“The searches concern the possible involvement of a natural person in the illegal financing of the electoral campaign of a candidate for the presidency of Romania, through the use of sums of money that there are indications that they might be derived from the commission of crimes, being subsequently introduced in a money laundering process,” the authorities said on Saturday.
In a subsequent statement on Sunday, December 8th, the prosecutor’s office said it had seized crypto wallets worth over $7 million from Peșchir’s computers and transferred them to the accounts of the National Agency for the Administration of Unavailable Goods (ANABI) until the investigation determines the money’s origin.
There is a strong suspicion that the businessman came to his fortune illegally, as last week’s unclassified intelligence report mentions that “Bogdan Peșchir displays a standard of living that does not correspond to the activities carried out through the owned company.”
Bodyguard mercenary on a late-night stroll
On Saturday night, Romanian police detained 20 professional mercenaries who reportedly belong to Georgescu’s private security team after finding an “arsenal” of illegal firearms and bladed weapons, as well as large sums of cash in their cars. Their leader, Horațiu Potra—a local councilor in the city of Mediaş who runs a mercenary group in the Congo—was picked up from his luxury car, which also contained weapons and cash, heading the convoy towards the capital.
When asked where Potra and his entourage were headed with pistols and machetes, he said he was on his way to vote at a polling station in Bucharest, despite the elections being canceled and the fact that he lives in a different city.
Authorities suspect he was trying to orchestrate an intimidation campaign or instigate public unrest in and around the capital. Potra may have been heading to the same polling station near the capital where Georgescu organized his protest against the annulment on early Sunday, demanding the right to vote with around a hundred of his supporters.
The mercenary leader was seen being escorted out of the Prahova police station in handcuffs on Sunday night and prosecutors said he was charged with non-compliance with weapons and ammunition regulations as well as public instigation for violence against politicians on social media. His lawyers, however, say the charges are not linked to his connections to Georgescu or the fact that he is reportedly in charge of the independent candidate’s security.
Whatever may be the truth in these allegations, it’s clear that the court’s reckless decision to overturn the democratic will of the people has transformed Romania into a powder keg with no apparent way out of the chaos.
GERMANY: Female Politicians Who Oppose Radical Gender Ideology To Be Ousted From Parliament And Replaced By Their Party
Germany’s Free Democratic Party (FPD) is seeking to prohibit the re-election of two female members who voted against the nation’s radical self-identification law. Katja Adler and Linda Teuteberg are the only two women in the FDP who voted against the law, with both expressing concerns about the implications gender ideology has for women’s safety.
In April of 2024, the German Bundestag voted for the Self-Determination Act, which allows people to simply change their sex and first name at the registry office and threatens with a fine of €10,000 if someone reveals their previous first name and real sex. With 251 votes against, two women from the FDP, Katja Adler and Linda Teuteberg, also voted against this proposed law.
In a personal statement, Adler pointed out that the law would result in women having fewer rights to single-sex spaces, and that it contradicted with the German Constitution’s guarantee that “men and women have equal rights.” Adler argued that the clause would be rendered unenforceable if men were capable of declaring themselves “women” at any time.
During an online event with women’s rights group Frauenheldinnen, Adler also expressed concerns about how the law impacted minors. The Self-Determination Act allows parents to change their child’s name and sex marker from birth, but also allows children to seek legal name and sex marker changes without parental consent via a youth court order. Reflecting on the dramatic changes, Adler said: “I cannot and will not agree to that.”
In her federal state of Hessen, Adler has already been dismissed from the FDP and has lost her place on the voting list, which would have guaranteed her return as a member of the German Bundestag.
Disturbingly, Adler’s social media history had apparently been scrutinized by her colleagues for some time without her knowledge, and her following on social media was apparently analyzed and presented at a state executive board meeting.
During the meeting, political data scientist Benjamin Läpple came to the conclusion that her followers are politically further to the right than the average position of the FDP. Adler described the revelations as feeling as thought she were being “pilloried.” In her federal state, only members of the FDP who voted in favor of the Self-Determination Act are now listed for the upcoming new elections.
But Adler is not the only FDP member who has been effectively ousted due to her stance on the Self-Determination Act. Linda Teuteberg, who represents the state of Brandenburg, may also be replaced by the party due to her comments criticizing the law.
In an interview with the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Teuteberg had noted that feminists who viewed biological sex as a fact were often stigmatized as “right-wing extremists” by state-sponsored groups, thereby thwarting debates on socially controversial issues. As a result of her comments, the FDP is seeking to replace Teuteberg with Matti Karstedt, who will enter the German Bundestag for the first time and who considers the Self-Determination Act a good law.
Karstedt has criticized women who express concerns about the law, and has said that “truly liberal women” do not feel threatened by trans-identified males.
Whether Teuteberg will lose her position will be decided on December 21, 2024.
While Adler and Tueteberg are being pushed out of the FDP, the party has also seen multiple women defect due to disagreements with the Self-Determination Act.
Earlier this year, Schwachhausen representative Birgit Bergmann left the party in protest of the FDP’s support of the Self-Determination Act. In a statement she posted to Instagram, Bergmann said that women’s, children’s, and parental rights were being “thrown overboard” and politics must serve people, not an ideology.
Similarly, Kyra Großmann, who is responsible for press and public relations for her city’s FDP association, announced her departure from the party last week.
In a statement she posted to X, Großmann explained her frustration with the law.
“I am now no longer allowed to call a de facto man by his old name, but I have to accept that he is allowed to feel like a woman and is therefore allowed to enter protective spaces that women have fought hard for, such as women’s toilets, women’s showers and women’s shelters,” she said.
Since the Self-Determination Act came into force at the end of November, over 14.000 people in Germany have changed their legal sex, far above the initial prediction of 4,000 annual requests. Approximately 5% of the applicants are minors, and not all applicants opted to change their names and sex – with some only changing the former.
As previously reported by Reduxx, just one day before Germany’s new law came into force, a trans-identified male in Germany was sentenced to an indefinite stay in a psychiatric institution as part of his prison sentence for exhibitionism and violent attacks on women. He now has the right to change his legal sex and to be placed in a women’s ward.
Proceedings to ban the AfD: Thuringia’s President of the Office for the Protection of the Constitution Kramer wanted to suppress exonerating expert report and threatened the authors of the report with physical violence
Unbelievable revelations incriminate the President of the Thuringian Office for the Protection of the Constitution, Stephan Kramer. ‘We demand transparent clarification!’ says AfD national spokesperson and candidate for chancellor Alice Weidel in an initial reaction. Weidel lists outrageous accusations: ‘According to media reports, the head of the Thuringian Office for the Protection of the Constitution, Kramer, is alleged to have committed criminal offences, threatened employees with physical violence, illegally prepared AfD expert reports and passed on internal information to public broadcaster MDR.
But one thing at a time. According to research by the alternative medium ‘Apollo News’, Department 1 of the Thuringian Ministry of the Interior wrote a six-page letter to the Thuringian Office for the Protection of the Constitution back in 2019. It concerns the suspicion that Kramer had allegedly passed on ‘strictly confidential information about serious dysfunctions and internal tensions in the Office for the Protection of the Constitution’ to two MDR journalists without authorisation and unlawfully. He allegedly disclosed to the journalists that ‘several officials in the Office for the Protection of the Constitution were working against the President’. The alleged breach of official duties in this context may constitute ‘a serious criminal offence under Section 353d of the German Criminal Code’ and raises the question of whether Kramer ‘poses a serious security risk’.
After Kramer classified the AfD as a ‘ case under investigation’ in 2018, a head of department complained in writing that the responsible department had been ‘deliberately ignored’. When Kramer followed up years later with a legally highly questionable report against the AfD, a courageous employee wrote a 30-page supplementary report that did not fit the narrative of the AfD’s supposed hostility towards the constitution. Kramer is said to have prevented the supplementary report from being used and, according to witnesses, justified this by saying that he did not want to ‘provide the opponent with any arguments’. According to ‘Apollo News’ information, the author of the uncomfortable report is said to have approached the personnel department of the Ministry of the Interior and stated that Kramer had threatened him with physical violence. If even fractions of these allegations, which now need to be clarified, are true, we expect Stephan Kramer to resign immediately!
‘His children are better now and he has restored his honour.’ Lebanese man stabs his wife to death in front of her safe house in Berlin, Germany
When Norhan A. ( aged 36) left the house that was supposed to be her shelter on August 28, her killer was already waiting for her hiding in the bushes.
Suddenly, her ex-husband Yasser B. (50) stood in front of her, pounced on the woman as if out of his mind, punched her and pulled her to the ground. According to witnesses, he repeatedly shouted ‘You whore’.
Witness Inga W. ( aged 50) then bravely intervened and protected the victim with her body. In vain – Yasser B. pulled out a kitchen knife and rammed it three times into his ex-wife’s upper body. One stab went straight through the heart. Then the killer watched motionless as his ex-wife died. Her final words: ‘The children …’
It was a murder that had been predicted for years. A femicide that leaves one question above all unanswered: Why didn’t anyone stop the murderer?
Norhan and Yasser were married from 2009 to 2022. Both Lebanese, Yasser’s asylum application was rejected back in 2002. Since then, the authorities have repeatedly extended his residence permit. When he reached for the knife, it had been expired for seven days.
After the separation in summer 2020 and the divorce in June 2022, Yasser repeatedly stalked his ex-wife and sent her vicious threats, for example: ‘I’ll kill you, I’ll take your soul.’
She repeatedly reported him to the police and he was repeatedly convicted. Yasser B. has 44 entries in his criminal record, 31 of which are for domestic violence, stalking and violation of an existing violence protection order. He has also been convicted of threatening behaviour and assault.
Yasser B. never complied with the no-contact and no-proximity order and also found the sheltered flat in the Berlin district of Zehlendorf where Norhan B. had been accommodated. Photos show him walking up and down in front of the house. The public prosecutor’s office is certain: ‘The accused decided to kill her out of excessive possessiveness and massive jealousy.’ On August 28, he hid in the bushes in the early evening.
After the crime, Yasser had himself arrested in bloodstained trousers and, according to the police, said: ‘His children are better now and he has restored his honour.’
Just a few hours before she was killed, Norhan A. posted a status message on WhatsApp. In it, she wrote about being ‘rescued from the hands of the Shaytan’ – Arabic for ‘Satan’. Her relatives are certain: the devil – by which Norhan meant her ex-husband Yasser.
The family is in shock: ‘She had to die because she was a woman. A woman who wanted to regain her freedom and lead a self-determined life as a woman,’ says niece Rima A. (aged 37).
The trial has not yet been scheduled, but will start by the end of February at the latest.

Von der Leyen has just turned the EU into a cheerleader for Islamist terrorism
Take a moment to read this tweet:
“The cruel Assad dictatorship has collapsed. This historic change in the region offers opportunities but is not without risks. Europe is ready to support safeguarding national unity and rebuilding a Syrian state that protects all minorities. We are engaging with European and regional leaders and monitoring developments.”
Now try to come to terms with the fact that the person who posted this on X is Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission President: The head of the EU is hailing the jihadists’ victory in Syria.
Of course, Assad is certainly no angel. In his two decades in power, the former ruler of Damascus has had a dire track record of illiberal practices and violent oppression. But, to see a dictator go and be happy about it is one thing. To rejoice at the victory of head-chopping Islamists is another.
Von der Leyen sees “opportunities” in this “historic change”. She seems to completely disregard the fact that the organisations that have stormed the Syrian capital after a blitz military campaign that has left the world in awe are direct descendants of the most ghastly criminals of the Islamic State.
Let us take a closer look at who these factions are.
The Hayat Tahrir al Sham (HTS), which has led the assault on the Syrian government’s forces and taken control of Damascus, was formed under its current name in 2017. Before that, its present backbone and leadership constituted the core of the Jabhat al Nusra. And Al Nusra was nothing short of Al Qaeda’s regional branch in Syria.
Yes, those are the exact same people who beheaded or executed their captives and hostages in the most perverted and gruesome manners conceivable. Those are the very beasts who took pride in systematically raping “infidel” women, selling them as sex-slaves and treating them like animals.
As for the so called Syrian National Army (SNA), formerly known as the Free Syrian Army (FSA), or also known in the past as the Turkish Backed Syrian Army (TBSA), which also plays a major part in the anti-Assad alliance, it is a group that has had ties with the Islamic State, with which it has fought side by side against the YPG, Syria’s Kurdish forces.
And while the SNA is closely associated with Turkey, to which it relies for training, funding, equipment and guidance, as it adheres to a neo-Ottoman ideology, some of its factions like Ahrar al-Sham have a clear Islamist identity boasting goals such as their wish to “establish an Islamic state governed by the Sharia law”.
Back to the HTS, where the Sharia is the only law, although it has lately tried to rebrand itself with the help of international legacy media, it remains a terrorist group. In fact, it is officially designated as a terrorist organization by the UN, the US and Turkey, amongst others.
It is terrorists, therefore, that von der Leyen believes can form a state which “supports all minorities”. It is the supporters of the establishment of a Caliphate, who the top EU official trusts with rebuilding Syria.
It is of course understandable that EU diplomacy is satisfied to see Russia and Iran take a serious geopolitical blow. Assad’s Syria has practically been a protectorate of Moscow and Tehran. Losing their foothold in the heart of the Middle East deprives the West’s adversaries of considerable strategic depth.
Still, for the EU to issue statements of support to jihadists, Islamist extremists and terrorists is simply unacceptable. The union has been founded upon principles and values. It is supposed to be a global beacon of liberty and humanitarian integrity – one that does not compromise its core beliefs in the cynical context of international power games.
Unfortunately, all this proves to be the case only in theory. In practice, the EU has been reduced to a sorry follower of regional and global developments and a passive receiver of historical decisions made by others. Having said that, it could at least spare itself the role of the Islamist terrorists’ cheerleader.
Von der Leyen has just turned the EU into a cheerleader for Islamist terrorism
Icelandic Politician Under Police Investigation For Social Media Posts Criticizing Gender Ideology, Male Breastfeeding
A gender critical activist in Iceland is under police investigation for seven posts he made to Facebook and X in which he criticized male breastfeeding and teaching “gender diversity” to children. Eldur Kristinsson, who also stood candidate in the recent Icelandic elections, informed Reduxx that he was reported to police by a LGBT rights organization that has accused him of violating the country’s hate speech laws.
Kristinsson is the chairman of Samtökin 22, a gender critical organization that supports single-sex spaces and opposes the medical transitioning of children. In the recent Icelandic parliamentary elections, which took place on November 30, Kristinsson stood as a candidate in the centre-right Democratic Party for the Northwest constituency.
During the election cycle, RÚV, the Icelandic National Broadcasting Service, ran an interview with the leader of the Democratic Party, Arnar Þór Jónsson. During the episode, the interviewer interrogated Jónsson on Kristinsson’s membership, and repeated an unsubstantiated claim that Kristinsson had once been removed from a school by police for making rude comments about a transgender person’s genitals and photographing pupils and staff. Speaking to Reduxx, Kristinsson noted that not only were the claims completely false, but that the state broadcaster had refused to issue an apology beyond affixing a small “correction” to their coverage.
In an effort to further prove RÚV‘s comments defamatory, Kristinsson went to his local police station to request a copy of his record to prove he’d never had any interactions with police beyond a 2001 speeding ticket. It was at this time he learned he was under investigation for hate speech.
Within 24 hours of visiting the police station, Kristinsson was told he would be required to submit to a criminal investigation surrounding social media posts he had made criticizing gender ideology. The investigation had been launched after Samtökin 78, a member organization of the International Lesbian Gay Bisexual Trans and Intersex Association, had filed a formal complaint against him.
In total, seven of Kristinsson’s posts dating back to November of 2022 were under investigation. Kristinsson provided Reduxx with a copy of the complaint Samtökin 78 had filed, which listed the dates and text of the posts they believed violated Article 233 of the Icelandic Criminal Code.
Among them were a comment Kristinsson made about Pride Month, in which he wrote that corporations “alter their logos to appease all the little führers in the cult of validation and we will hear nothing else than trans, trans, trans, translesbians, girl dick this and that.”
In another comment, Kristinsson noted that some trans-identified males have autogynephilia – in which males are sexually aroused at the thought of themselves as women. Further posts include Kristinsson saying that “people who give birth to children are called women,” and suggesting that Samtökin 78 was “grooming 10-year-old kids in the 5th grade.” The group’s activities have included lecturing on “gender diversity” to children of that age in Iceland’s elementary schools.
Two of the seven posts which were reported to police involve Kristinsson condemning news outlets promoting trans-identified males who induced lactation for the purposes of “breastfeeding” children.
In their complaint to police, Samtökin 78 said that Kristinsson “actively participated in criminal hate propaganda against gay people because of their gender characteristics and/or gender identity,” and that he should be “charged and sentenced to punishment for that behavior according to the law.”
Because his comments were “serious, grossly hurtful and prejudicial,” the group claims that they “cannot be considered to add anything relevant to the social debate,” and therefore would not be protected under freedom of expression. If found guilty under Article 233 of Iceland’s hate speech laws, Kristinsson could face either a fine or up to two years in prison.
In a statement on the lawsuit given to Visir News, Bjarndís Helga Tómasdóttir of Samtökin 78 said the organization “will not sit by idly while individuals continue to perpetuate lies about queer people and trans people.”
Tómasdóttir continued: “He claimed in one comment that Samtökin 78 is grooming or seducing children. In other comments, he calls trans women pedophiles. We believe such comments are indefensible and simply endanger the safety of our staff, volunteers, and the entire queer community.” A second article published by Visir the following day claimed Kristinsson had a “long history of inflammatory remarks.”
Ironically, Samtökin 78 had previously come under fire after it was learned that one of its board members had been sexually harassing children.
As previously reported by Reduxx, Þórhildur Sara Sveinbjörnsdóttir, a trans-identified male who was chairman of the group’s Community Council, was forced to resign after allegations emerged that he had sexually harassed children online and raped a man with cognitive impairments.
According to the victim, Sveinbjörnsdóttir had asked him to come with him to the washroom, at which point Sveinbjörnsdóttir held him down and raped him orally and anally.
Sveinbjörnsdóttir was also accused of having inappropriate communications with children, with one young girl coming forward to allege that the man had sexually harassed her when she was just 13.
France: Islamist plot to attack Poitiers town hall foiled, three students in custody – According to their texts, this target was chosen because of the symbolism of the Battle of Poitiers, in which the troops of Charles Martel won against the Arab-Berber troops in 732
They had chosen their – highly symbolic – target to take revenge on a historic event. Three young adults suspected of plotting a jihadist attack on various targets, in particular the town hall of Poitiers, were arrested on Wednesday by police officers from the General Directorate of Internal Security (DGSI) in several departments, including Loire-Atlantique and Gard.
According to our information, confirmed by the National Anti-Terrorism Prosecutor’s Office (PNAT), the three radicalised men, aged 19 and 20, were charged on Saturday evening, after four days in police custody, with ‘criminal terrorist association’, ‘possession and transport of incendiary or explosive substances or products in connection with a terrorist project’ and ‘unauthorised manufacture of explosive devices or explosives in connection with a terrorist attack’. All were remanded in custody.
These three fanatics of jihadist organisations are all students, one of them is studying chemistry, which could have been useful to them. They came to the attention of DGSI investigators through disturbing conversations on encrypted networks. They discussed in particular their intention to commit a violent attack against several targets labelled as infidels and in particular the town hall of Poitiers. According to their texts, this target was envisaged because of the symbolism of the Battle of Poitiers, in which Charles Martel’s troops were victorious against the Arab-Berber forces in 732. The three young men had also spoken of attacking the DGSI headquarters or going to Syria.
The investigation, which is now being carried out on the basis of a request for mutual legal assistance from counter-terrorism judges, must now clarify how far their jihadist plots have progressed. Worryingly, however, investigators found during the house searches that the suspects had prepared the manufacture of homemade TATP-type explosives, an unstable explosive substance favoured by terrorist groups such as Daech. They had even practised handling explosives and were due to receive new sensitive components at the time of their arrest, apparently to build a bomb for D-Day. Their affiliation to a jihadist group is unclear, as the suspects mention both the Islamic State and HTS, the extremist Syrian rebel group once allied with Al-Qaeda.
This counter-terrorism operation confirms that the jihadist threat in France remains at a diffuse level and that the actors of the endogenous movement, i.e. people who are present on French territory, have become significantly younger. Minors and young adults now make up the majority of arrests in cases of Sunni jihadism.
Western humanitarians: the Islamist avatar
by Giulio Meotti
Before disappearing into an Algerian prison, where at 75 years old he now risks ending his days, the great novelist Boualem Sansal gave this last extraordinary interview to the Journal du dimanche:
“Self-flagellation is gaining ground throughout the West and is becoming a danger. I do not understand why governments are not worried about this galloping epidemic and are not taking any action to prevent the disasters that it will eventually cause. We can begin to believe that the West is committing suicide and in the most amusing way. Good deal for the BRICS and the Islamists who dream of a great replacement. We are overwhelmed by fear. And fear causes in man as in animals one or the other reaction, or even both at the same time: the subject becomes violent and attacks or submits to fear and goes as far as mutilating himself to show his submission. Self-flagellation and Wokism are acts of symbolic self-mutilation, they express atonement, submission, preparation for liberating suicide”.
And submission also comes from a corrupt humanitarianism.
After targeting Israel in favor of Islamic terrorists, the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court in The Hague, the Pakistani Muslim Karim Khan, is now attacking the leaders of Myanmar for their dispute with the Rohingya Muslims. Myanmar is not a member of the Court, but Islamic Bangladesh, which is part of the dispute, is.
Khan has transformed the Court into an Islamist instrument used to wage a judicial war against non-Muslims on behalf of the Umma.
A year ago, Khan met with the Qatari ambassador to the Netherlands. Then the Turkish Erdogan.
A scandal has just broken out at the Oxford Union, where speakers have been singing the praises of October 7th. Little wonder if we consider that Qatar has filled Oxford with millions of pounds in recent years. Qatar has also filled King’s College London, the university of the Hague prosecutor Khan, with money.
Qatar did not have any moral credibility to mount a “genocide” case against Israel at the International Court of Justice. It had the money and the will, but zero ethical standing. What to do? Who better than the “rainbow democracy” to nail the Jewish state to The Hague? With the title “South Africa, Hamas, Iran and Qatar: The Hijacking of the African National Congress and the International Court of Justice”, the American think tank Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism has published an investigation into South Africa’s decision to charge Israel with genocide at the Court of Justice that prompted the Criminal Court to issue the arrest warrant against Benjamin Netanyahu.
Or take Canadian professor William Schabas, who headed a UN commission on Gaza. A professor of international law at Middlesex University in London, Schabas had to resign when a consultancy he had done for the Palestine Liberation Organization came to light.
Former UNRWA commissioner Pierre Krahenbuhl met with leaders of Palestinian terrorist organizations during his tenure, UN Watch has just revealed. The meeting took place in Beirut and was attended by representatives of Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Palestine Liberation Front.
The European Centre for Law and Justice revealed that many rapporteurs at the UN received donations from Qatar.
Boualem Sansal. An Algerian. A writer. A political prisoner. A dictatorship. The usual ingredients of the ideal martyr to defend. Instead, no. “Still no reaction from the impostors of Amnesty International who, in this affair, clearly support the Algerian dictators,” writes Clément Weill-Raynal. Last April, Palestinian Arab terrorist Walid Daqqah, who kidnapped and murdered soldier Moshe Tamam, died in prison in Israel from illness. In prison, the terrorist began writing novels. When he died, Amnesty International mourned the death of the terrorist as a “Palestinian writer”.
Now Amnesty International charges Israel, the people who survived Auschwitz and Treblinka, of “genocide” in Gaza.
Gita Sahgal, who resigned from Amnesty International as head of the gender office after having denounced its relations with the English supporters of the Taliban, explains this alliance with the devil as follows: “It is as if these organizations, Amnesty and others, felt the duty to challenge their government on the ground of rights as soon as we get close to Islam”.
But it is not a question of moral duty: some madmen may even believe it, but for most it is just a question of opportunism. Judges at The Hague, UN rapporteurs and NGO leaders, have you noticed that the Muslim Brotherhood is over the moon and starting to dream: what if everything goes much faster than expected?
Italian Woman Warned by ‘Migrants’ to Wear Hijab in Public (Video)
In Rome, a group of Muslim men harass and warn an Italian woman: “Be careful how you leave the house, you have to wear a hijab”. “I want to live in a place where people follow Islamic law.” Moves to the literal capital city of Catholicism. Imagine the backlash if Christians were in Mecca or Medina telling Muslims to behave more Christian. Because that’s what this pretty much amounts to.
