Late music composer Wajid Khan’s wife, Kamalrukh Khan recently penned a note, seeking a strong anti-conversion bill as states moved to pass a law against 'Love Jihad’.

She alleged that there was pressure on her to convert to Islam, which led to the breakdown of their marriage. She also stated that the harassment from her late husband’s family continued, as she hoped the anti-conversion law is nationalised to reduce the struggles of women like her in ‘toxic’ relationships. Another reason (apart from murder and mutilation of women n men) for anti conversion law for marriage coming into force in UP. Soon other Indian states will follow.

Uttar Pradesh: Hindu girl beheaded after she refused to convert to Islam, husband Ejaz and friend Shoaib Akhtar nabbed.

In a barbaric act, a 23-year-old Hindu woman has been brutally murdered by two Muslim youth after she refused to convert to Islam after marriage. The incident has occurred in Sonbhadra, Uttar Pradesh.

According to the reports, the Uttar Pradesh police on Monday had recovered a beheaded body of a woman in a forest area near Preet Nagar under the Chopan police station area. The police officials said that the father of the deceased, Laxminarayan, identified the deceased as Priya Soni from her shoes and clothes.

The father of the deceased informed the police that her daughter Priya had married a Muslim youth named as Ejaz Ahmed against the wishes of the family about a month and a half ago. According to the father of the deceased, Ejaz was pressuring her to convert to Islam, to which she disagreed.

The police officials have said that Ejaz had kept her at a lodge in the Obra area and was continuously pressurising her to convert to Islam. As the Hindu girl refused to convert, the angry Ejaz called upon another friend Shoaib Akhtar. The two Muslim youth carried Priya to a nearby forest area and killed her.

Uttar Pradesh: Hindu woman shot dead by her husband, accused had married her falsely pretending to be ‘Rajkumar’. The untimely death of Neha, the young Hindu girl from Badaun district in Uttar Pradesh, who was shot dead by her husband Asif on September 25 (Friday), has left her family reeling in shock. Mourning the death of his younger sister, one of Neha’s brother said in an angry tone: “Neha was dead for me the day she went against our wishes to marry that boy… see what he did, he killed her”.

‘Love jihad’ protests in India after video shows Hindu woman gunned down outside college. Protests have erupted in India over a graphic video showing a young Muslim man gunning down a 21-year-old Hindu woman in broad daylight outside her college campus.

Since Nikita had refused to convert to Islam and rejected his friendship, Tauseef was infuriated and wanted to teach Nikita a lesson. With no option left, Tauseef planned to kill her and shot her dead as she came out of her college on Monday after taking her exams.

The incident took place in the city of Faridabad in the northern state of Haryana on Monday afternoon, police said. The victim, who has been identified as Nikita Tomar, was shot dead as she appeared to resist an attempted abduction.

Video of the incident was taken from CCTV footage of the street outside Aggarwal College in the Ballabgarh neighbourhood, and was widely shared on social media in India on Tuesday.

Tauseef’s family is closely linked to sitting Congress MLA Chaudhary Aftab Ahmed from Nuh (Mewat) constituency of Haryana. In 2019, Chaudhary Aftab Ahmed was re-elected and nominated as Deputy Leader of Congress Legislative Party Haryana. He has also served as Transport minister, Tourism minister, Printing & Stationary minister and state vice-president of the Haryana Congress.

A 35-year-old elephant has been transferred to a wildlife sanctuary in Cambodia after his miserable condition at an Islamabad zoo sparked a global outcry. American singer Cher campaigned for his freedom for years.

Following years of public outcry and campaigning by Oscar-winning American singer and actor Cher, Kaavan the elephant has landed in Cambodia from Pakistan to start a new life in a local sanctuary.

The 35-year-old bull elephant's miserable condition in an Islamabad zoo had sparked an uproar from animal rights groups in the country and abroad. Cher was on the tarmac at the airport in Siem Reap to greet Kaavan, who made the journey on a special cargo plane.

The new breadwinners in Australia: Here is how a doctor explains it: A woman in her late 20's came to the hospital today with her 8th pregnancy. She said to me "My mum told me that I am the breadwinner for the family." I asked her to explain. She said that she can make babies and babies get money from the Government for the family.

It goes like this: The Grandma calls the Department of child services and Centrelink, and states that the unemployed daughter is not capable of caring for all of her kids. And they agree, then tells her the children will need to go into foster care.

The Grandma then volunteers to be the foster parent, and receives a cheque for $400 per child each month. Total yearly income $72,000 and soon to be more when the 8th one is born, tax-free and nobody has to go to work!

In fact, they get more if there is no husband/father/man in the home! The brother does not count. Not to mention free dental treatment, free housing, free school dinners, free tuition fees at college or Uni, free eye care and glasses, free prescriptions and various other benefits...

Total value of all benefits combined probably approaching $120,000 per annum. That's about my salary as a senior consultant with years of experience and surgical skills in a Melbourne teaching hospital.

Indeed, Grandma was correct that her fertile daughter is the "breadwinner" for the family This is how the politicians spend our taxes. When this generous programme was invented in the '60s, the Great Society architects forgot to craft an end date, and now we are hopelessly over run with people who vote only for those who will continue to keep them on the dole.....

No wonder our country is broke! Worse, our Muslim brothers have been paying attention, and by mandating that each Muslim family have eleven children. They will soon replace the voting bloc above and can be running this country in around 12 years.

Are we alarmed yet, is anybody listening? Please know I am not racist nor am I against Immigration, I just worry where this uncontrolled sort of immigration is going to take this wonderful country. There must be limits and controls in place or in around 12 years or less we will be going to midday prayers at the local mosque.

That's a simple fact of life my friends. They clearly intend to force that upon us.

Akbar raped children. Akbar raped his own daughter-in-law. Akbar had Harem of 5000 women. Jahangir blinded his son with his own hands. Shah Jahan did not spare even his own daughter. Aurangzeb beheaded his own brother and sent his head to his imprisoned father.Almost every Mughal king killed some of his sons and brothers and much more.

This book is an eye-opener on Mughal history in India. Mughals have been glorified as great rulers in Indian history books despite being maniacs, incest-lovers, rapists and merciless invaders. The book is a compilation of all hidden facts. Straight from their authentic biographies. To make Indians realize, enough is enough. Do not glorify these filthy creatures in the name of preserving the secular fabric of India.

Powell’s complaint, filed on Nov. 25 against Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and the Michigan Board of State Canvassers, cites the affidavit (pdf) as authored by a former electronic intelligence analyst under 305th Military Intelligence and purporting to show that “the Dominion software was accessed by agents acting on behalf of China and Iran in order to monitor and manipulate elections, including the most recent US general election in 2020.”

President Macron’s hate affair with the American media continues, if a recent New York Times article is anything to go by. The president is not happy, and thinks the Anglo-Saxon press fails to understand French laïcité and the universalist model, as opposed to the Anglosphere model of multiculturalism, with its distinct roots in the British Empire. While this is undoubtedly true, the more pressing issue might be the gulf in understanding of Islamism, the target of Macron’s campaign.

France’s introduction of new measures to combat so-called “Islamist separatism” and the decisions to raid Islamist organisations and dissolve others in the aftermath of Samuel Paty’s murder have caused consternation among Western elites. Over the weekend, Twitter was awash with comparisons between France’s policies and the plight of Jews in 1930s Germany. These conspiratorial takes not only demonstrate a deep moral and intellectual confusion, but at this point they are actively endangering French citizens — almost 300 of whom have been slaughtered in the streets by Islamist murderers in the last few years.

Macron’s strategy against Islamism warrants intense scrutiny, but that scrutiny must start with an acceptance that Islamism is a real phenomenon and a serious challenge to France, both in terms of violent radicalisation and social cohesion.

The Anglosphere should know by now that Islamism does not mean the same as Islamic. As was explained by two of France’s leading scholars, Bernard Haykel and Hugo Micheron, failing to make this differentiation only confirms Islamist and far-right presentation of events.

Modern Islamism has its roots as much in political parties founded in Egypt and the subcontinent during the 20th Century as religious scripture, its ideological trajectory shaped by a series of theorists and scholars right up until the present day.

If honest audits rejected absentee and mail-in votes at the same rates as 2018, they would entirely eliminate Biden’s margin of victory in Pennsylvania, Georgia and Wisconsin.

Election officials in every disputed state have so far failed to perform independently-monitored audits of their mail-in and absentee ballots in accordance with the U.S. Election Assistance Commission’s bipartisan guidelines. 

Transparent audits would provide answers to the high-profile anomalies around votes being cast in the names of deceased voters and out-of-state voters.

For instance, they could shed light on the 40,000 votes cast for presumably-dead voters in Pennsylvania and the thousand-plus voters registered at apparently-fake addresses in Georgia.

Update:

– Georgia: We have identified over a thousand early/abs votes cast by individuals whose registered addresses are in fact at post offices, UPS, and FedEx locations, wilfully disguising the box numbers as "Apt," "Unit," etc.

Beijing Biden: The Presidential Reject! For like the fourth time. Ilhan Omar does the same thing, she smiles when she's talking about horrible things, creepy. Obiden could not HONESTLY win an election, even if he was the only person running.

They don’t care about the truth because demon rats 🐀 have no integrity. This is the MSM's last roll of the dice. They have to win or thry are through. Biden is detestable. Have you seen him around children and his statements about them. They don't call him creepy Joe for nothing.

Next up, Michael encourages his non-Catholic viewers to consider the “Great Reset” of the Catholic Church that took place a half century ago as an indication of what we might expect from the Great Reset Sorors, Gates and Schwab have in store for the world come January.

Do the globalists actually have the power to turn the world into the New World Order? Or are they just singing John Lennon’s song. What’s the connection between Bergoglio and Biden? Do the globalists need to get rid of Donald Trump for the same reason they got rid of Pope Benedict XVI?

Donald Trump wins court victories in Nevada, Pennsylvania and Georgia. Is this election still up in the air? If so, why is CNN and even FOX so silent?

Ex-armed forces chief wants liquor sale ban rescinded, questions motive

IndigoKite6964: Our soldiers, regardless of their racial origins and beliefs, put their life on the line for this country. Many have already paid the ultimate price for our freedom, and many more are prepared to defend it. The bullet doesn’t care about race or religion. Only PAS care about this and to threaten the very freedom these heroes who fought and died to preserve our country.

I appreciate former armed forces chief General (Rtd) Hashim Mohd Ali’s remarks. Our blood, no matter what race or religion, is red. When will PAS understand that we are not an Islamic state and stop interpreting the constitution that way? The fact that they get to sit in Parliament is proof enough that we are not an Islamic state.

Non-Muslims have equal rights with Muslims in this country and thank you, general, for telling them precisely that.

It’s because the Pakistan origin technicians might leak details about the jets to Islamabad India had raised these concerns as it is its front-line fighter. Moreover, Pakistan has also shared information about vital defense data with China in the past.

During his visit to France foreign secretary Harsh Shringla was informed about the French government’s decision France also assured the Indian foreign secretary that it is very sensitive to the security of its ally France has lent relentless support to India amid the border stand-off In the meantime, France decided not to upgrade the Mirage III and Mirage 5 fighter jets, following Pakistan’s request.

The event comes in the wake of Imran Khan’s criticism of French President Emmanuel Macron who defended the French teacher.

Impeach any governor who violates the constitution. No matter how the election turns out (still holding out hope for an eventual Trump victory), Trump has done MASSIVE damage to the liberal/globalist/communist agenda (thank God)This decision is exactly why we need Justices that follows the Constitution. Ones that view it a a literal document not a guideline for liberal interpertation..

This SCOTUS ruling is the same reason I believe Sidney's GA lawsuit will be victorious: the section about the 14th Amendment: It says "nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person to the equal protection of the laws." If stripclubs, bars & protest gatherings are essential than so are religious gatherings. Congratulations New Yorkers! God Bless

If they 'WON", then why are they still censoring this info? What are they afraid of? I'm about 30 pages in. Incredible stuff. Georgia did everything wrong. Witnesses detail fraud with specific examples. Havent got to the Dominion stuff yet. But so far this is stunning the corruption.

“It is acknowledged that the Imera Monastery is an important Christian site in the eastern Black Sea region, but the fact that Christians in this area suffered a genocide which nearly eliminated their presence was ignored. Rather than taking steps to bring healing to those communities who have suffered genocide, their religious and cultural sites are instead turned into cultural tourism sites that help fund the state’s activities,” the ICC added.

Today Christians and Jews comprise only 0.2 percent of Turkey’s population.

This major population decline was largely caused by the 1913-23 Christian genocide that targeted Armenians, Assyrians and Greeks.

COMMENT | Readers of my column understand that I despise any kind of state initiatives to foster “patriotism” in young people.  What the state attempts to do has nothing to do with “patriotism”, which is an odious concept to begin with, but to instil propaganda in young people so that they would support systems which maintain the political class of the country.

Of course, the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government would want to revive “national service”, which was the most hair-brained scheme of the government that came up with it.  It is pointless going over the deaths, mismanagement, cronyism and corruption scandals that mired this government experiment in its original iteration because this would mean we would also have to wade through the various other state propaganda organs that hamper the intellectual and emotional development of young people in this country.

These programmes exist to brainwash young people into thinking that the government is a benign entity that should be supported because – depending on the quality and efficacy of said programmes – governments bring some sort of benefit to their lives. Whatever they receive in terms of experience or skill sets is built upon a foundation of propaganda. This propaganda worms its way into young people and they conflate political parties with the independent institutions of government. They do not think of government institutions as independent, but rather as an extension of political parties. They may not articulate it as such, but it is all there in how they express what they think of the government and its role.

Maira Shahbaz

“Christian girl, 14, is being threatened by Islamist death squads in Pakistan for fleeing forced marriage to Muslim man, 45 – as thousands sign petition to give her asylum,” by Michael Powell, The Mail on Sunday, November 21, 2020 :

Campaigners are urging Boris Johnson to offer asylum to a 14-year-old Christian girl being hunted by Islamist death squads in Pakistan after fleeing her forced marriage to a Muslim man 30 years her senior. Catholic altar server Maira Shahbaz, who was abducted at gunpoint and gang-raped before her wedding, is in hiding after being accused of apostasy for breaking off the marriage – an offence punishable by death in Islam.

More than 9,000 people have signed a petition asking the Prime Minister to grant the teenager and her family asylum in Britain to save her from ‘certain death’. Her supporters cite parallels with the case of Asia Bibi, a Pakistani Christian who was hounded by Islamic vigilantes on her release from prison after bogus blasphemy charges….

Last night, Maira appealed directly to Mr Johnson. ‘I am very much scared due to threats to my life and my family. Please protect me,’ she said in a statement. The schoolgirl fled her husband in August, five days after the Lahore high court ruled she had willingly converted to Islam and married Mohamad Nakash Tariq, a 45-year-old barber who lived near her family in the city of Faisalabad.

The ruling sparked protests in Pakistan where, according to human-rights groups, an estimated 1,000 Christian and Hindu girls are kidnapped each year and forced to convert to Islam. Maira claims she was abducted on April 28 and held prisoner in a basement. She alleges that her captors drugged and raped her before forcing her to convert to Islam to marry Tariq. He denies her claims.

Sajid Christopher, a human-rights activist in Lahore who is supporting the teenager, said:

Americans dont take orders from the Legacy Media. The globalist propaganda is paid to mesmerize with hyper drama hate and lies, its all about profits for them. Notice the way President Trump says "We" won the election. This President really is fighting for We the People. We the People need to fight for him and with him to take back Our Country!

I'm an Australian so ordinarily I should not be so concerned ..... it is not my nation but after what I saw in the last 4+ years in MSM it is very much my concern.....what I saw on election night and the days after is very much my concern because if those evil weeds responsible can cheat an American election it is surely going to happen worldwide...... and freedom and democracy is dead!

What’s that? Violence against Infidels is encouraged in numerous Qur’an passages, and this fellow linked his attack to Islam by screaming “Allahu akbar”? Shut up, you greasy Islamophobe. “Saint-Ouen: He refuses to give his phone away and receives several stab wounds,” translated from “Saint-Ouen : Il refuse de donner son téléphone et reçoit plusieurs coups de couteau,” ACTUPenit.com, November 23, 2020

“Bangladeshi Catholics Attacked, Church Demolished,” by Fabian Gomes, ChurchMilitant.com, November 23, 2020:

MOULVIBAZAR, Bangladesh (ChurchMilitant.com) – Armed Muslim militants attacked Catholics in the village of Ichhachhara in northeastern Bangladesh earlier this month, wounding faithful and desecrating their church — smashing windows and destroying books and other religious items.

Sources tell Church Militant the assault stems from a Sept. 21 incident in which Muslim Rafiq Ali, using fake documents, illegally seized farmland from local Catholic Josper Amlorong. Amlorong reported the land grab to authorities, and on Nov. 9, police evicted Ali from the stolen parcel.

But that evening, after law enforcement had left Ichhachhara, Ali — an influential leader from the nearby village of Tatriuli — returned, backed by dozens of Muslim supporters, and launched his attack. Now, the district’s Christians are living in fear, worried their lives are at risk. “Ali and his people forcibly entered my property and took possession of it,” Amlorong told Church Militant. “They threatened my life. They told me to leave the land. It is my only piece of land.”

Amlorong is a member of the mainly Christian Khasi tribe. Like most Khasis, his betel leaf garden is the sole source of income for his family. “If I lost my land, I couldn’t live,” said Amlorong, who has been battling cancer for the past three years. “Without treatment, I will die.” “Being I am Christian, Ali thought I am weak, but I will not leave my land until I draw my last breath,” he vowed. Amlorong noted that Ali and his cohort damaged many betel leaf plants during their occupation. “I lost BDT 500000 (roughly $6,000) when my land was grabbed by Rafiq,” he explained….

“Act of terrorism: woman with knife stabs two people in Swiss department store,” translated from “Terreurdaad: vrouw met mes steekt twee mensen neer in Zwitsers warenhuis,” De Telegraaf, November 24, 2020 :

ZURICH – A woman with a knife injured two other women in a department store in the southern Swiss city of Lugano. The authorities suspect an act of terrorism: the woman has been known to the police since 2017 due to an investigation into radical Muslims who want to use violence to spread Islam.

Geert Wilders

Geert Wilders, who is thought of as, “The Donald Trump of The Netherlands”, opened the parliamentary debate with a summary of the islamic attacks and threats in recent weeks. He also addressed the call by Amsterdam’s imam, Yassin Elforkani, who just two weeks after the murder of Samuel Paty, began demanding the criminalization of insulting Mohammed. A petition was even launched by his fellow Imam, Ismail Abou Soumayyah insisting the government to adopt sharia blasphemy laws. The petition has currently been signed more than 125,000 times.

The Argentine president declared three days of national mourning. The 1986 World Cup winner and the national team's former manager had been in hospital in Buenos Aires after surgery to remove a blood clot on the brain earlier this month.

Chappelle goes on and on about injustice.........not George Floyd, but rather the injustice of others criticizing him for not speaking out earlier. In doing so he eviscerates those that criticized him in a way that makes Trump look mild. At the end of his 846 video, he declares himself the purveyor of "civil discourse", in stark contract to the civil discourse and maturity shown by Candace Owens.

Voicing his support for the statement by Persatuan Patriot Kebangsaan President Brig-General (Rtd) Mohamed Arshad Raji, Hasim said that while it is not his business to promote alcohol consumption, the government must respect the rights of non-Muslims as we live in a multi-religious country and for many generations, there have been no problems on the sale of liquor from these outlets.

Although the recent beheading of a French teacher who showed a Charlie Hebdo cartoon of the prophet of Islam in the context of free speech occasioned this latest demand, in fact, Muslim calls to criminalize free speech against Islam regularly flare out whenever Muslims kill Westerners in the context of exercising their rights to free expression.

For example, in 2015,  after Muslim gunmen killed 12 people at Charlie Hebdo offices for publishing the same satirical  caricatures of Muslim prophet Muhammad, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), the “collective voice of the Muslim world” and second largest inter-governmental organization after the United Nations, called—and is again predictably calling—for the United Nations to criminalize “blasphemy” against Islam, or what it more ecumenically calls, the “defamation of religions.”

Yet the OIC, Al Azhar, and countless other Muslim groups and individuals seem to miss the grand irony: if international laws would ban free speech, cartoons, books, and films on the basis that they defame Islam, they would also, by logical extension, have to ban the entire religion of Islam itself—the only religion whose core texts actively and unequivocally defame other religions, including by name.

What, then, do we do with Islam’s core religious texts—beginning with the Koran itself, which slanders, denigrates and blackens the reputation of other religions? Consider Christianity alone: Koran 5:73 declares that “Infidels are they who say God is one of three,” a reference to the Christian Trinity; Koran 5:72 says “Infidels are they who say God is the Christ, [Jesus] son of Mary”; and Koran 9:30 complains that “the Christians say the Christ is the son of God … may God’s curse be upon them!”

Considering that the word “infidel” (kafir) is not only Islam’s most derogatory term, but sharia requires Muslims to subjugate or kill infidels, what if a Christian book or Western cartoon appeared declaring that “Infidels are they who say Muhammad is the prophet of God—may God’s curse be upon them”? If Muslims would consider that a great defamation against Islam—and they would, with the attendant rioting, murders, etc.—then by the same standard it must be admitted that the Koran defames Christians and Christianity.

Similarly, consider how the Christian crucifix, venerated among millions, is depicted—is defamed—in Islam: according to canonical hadiths, when he returns, Jesus (“Prophet Isa”) will destroy all the crosses; as for Muhammad, who never allowed the cross in his presence, he once ordered someone wearing a cross to “throw away this piece of idol from yourself.”  Unsurprisingly, the cross is banned and often destroyed whenever visible in many Muslim countries.

“Once used rectally, the thermometer should not be used orally.”

Justice Samuel Alito has delivered some serious warnings that too often are ignored by many who believe the freedoms we enjoy are inviolable.

In an address earlier this month to the Federalist Society National Lawyers Convention, Alito touched on several subjects, including COVID-19, religious liberty, the Second Amendment, free speech, and “bullying” of the Supreme Court by U.S. senators.

Alito made a case for how each issue contains elements that contribute to a slow erosion of our liberties. On tolerance, preached but not often practiced by the left, Alito said:

Beijing Joe

It’s not just that the former vice president is on track to become the oldest president in American history, it’s what he managed to accomplish at the polls this year.

Candidate Joe Biden was so effective at animating voters in 2020 that he received a record number of votes, more than 15 million more than Barack Obama received in his re-election of 2012. Amazingly, he managed to secure victory while also losing in almost every bellwether county across the country. No presidential candidate has been capable of such electoral jujitsu until now.

While Biden underperformed Hillary Clinton’s 2016 totals in every urban county in the United States, he outperformed her in the metropolitan areas of Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. Even more surprising, the former VP put up a record haul of votes, despite Democrats’ general failures in local House and state legislative seats across the nation.

He accomplished all this after receiving a record low share of the primary vote compared to his Republican opponent heading into the general election. Clearly, these are tremendous and unexpected achievements that would normally receive sophisticated analysis from the journalist class but have somehow gone mostly unmentioned during the celebrations at news studios in New York City and Washington, D.C.

Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye. The World English Bible translates the passage as: First, remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.

COMMENT | The quote by Asyraf that opens this piece was made when he was a panellist at a conference titled "Bicara Minda dan Sesi Dialog Perjuangan For All" in 2017. Why is this important? This is important because another panellist at that conference was then Umno info chief Annuar Musa.

Federal Territories Minister Annuar Musa recently said that the recent guidelines for alcohol applications and sales had nothing to do with religion and was a strategy to look after the well-being of "the Kuala Lumpur community, especially the less fortunate and the needy in continuing with their lives amidst the Covid-19 pandemic".

The prime minister, on another related issue, even "joked" about how it may be a good idea for nightclubs and pubs to remain closed because it is difficult to have "social distancing" in these venues points to the kind of religious and moral pandering that goes in this Malay uber alles government.

Take this anecdote from Martin Vengadesan's latest report where "live music and deejays are already not allowed, but many more are not even permitted to play piped-in music or even broadcast entertainment on their TV screens".
