Deport him. Don't waste money on jail.

[Jonathan Sacerdoti @jonsac]

A Palestinian asylum seeker who arrived in Britain illegally by small boat has been jailed for six years after breaking into a family home and masturbating in front of terrified young girls. The judge concluded that he intended to rape at least one of them.

Mohammed Abbas, 29, who claims to be Palestinian, arrived from France in March. By July, he had already been convicted of assaulting a police officer, whom he spat at, and battery.

Rather than being deported, he was given a taxpayer-funded, £250,000 two-bedroom house in Cardiff, where he lived alone.

Just two days after moving in, Abbas broke into a nearby family home at 2am, entering a bedroom shared by three sisters, including two children under 16.

He exposed himself, repeatedly demanded sex and masturbated as the girls screamed in terror. He even attempted to climb towards one of them on a bunk bed. She desperately fought him off with a pillow.

Their screams eventually alerted their family, and Abbas fled.

Police subsequently discovered stolen belongings at his accommodation and DNA evidence linking him to the bedroom.

The court heard that Abbas received £30 weekly from the Home Office, which he spent on food, alcohol, tobacco and cannabis. His asylum application remained undecided.

Judge Lucy Crowther described the danger he posed to women and girls as “real and imminent”. He received six years’ imprisonment and three years’ extended licence.

Meanwhile, the British Government has reopened its refugee resettlement scheme, with approximately a quarter of referrals earmarked collectively for Palestinians and Afghan women and girls.

Ministers expect initially hundreds of arrivals across the new resettlement routes, potentially rising into the low thousands.

Abbas cannot be considered for deportation until he has served his custodial sentence.

I have filed five applications with the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario.

Humber College — $50,000, plus $113,450 in lost income.
George Bragues — $20,000, plus the same $113,450, recoverable once.
OPSEU/SEFPO — $25,000.
Wael Ramadan — $25,000.
Gita Anand and Reilly Everitt-Cunningham — $35,000.

The applications allege that I was discriminated against, and punished, for filing a human rights complaint in January 2024. The Tribunal will decide.

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

ISRAELI AIRBNB HOST BANNED:

Mija, an Israeli living in Argentina 🇦🇷, hosted on Airbnb for 12 years.

Then, a guest accused him of supporting genocide after questioning him about the war in Gaza. The guest left the accusation in a public review after the stay.

When Mija reported the review as antisemitic, Airbnb said it looked into it and found no issue.

Mija also asked the guest to remove the review. He refused.

After Mija posted publicly about the issue, Airbnb responded by removing his account.

Why is Airbnb punishing the host for a guest's unacceptable bigotry? Israelis are not representatives of their government. This is wrong.

I totally get the impatience with the general ignorance in these circumstances.

[Rawan Osman روان عثمان @RawaneOsmane]

Over Shabbat dinner last Friday in Las Vegas, a sweet lady turned to me and said: "So Rawan, your mother tongue is Farsi, right?"

I looked at her, speechless. Finally I said, "Why would it be? I'm half Syrian, half Lebanese. Arabic is my mother tongue."

"Okay, so these are two different languages," she said.

I would have thought that since 9/11, Americans knew Arabic is a language: the language of the Quran and of the Arab world.

I didn't like my reaction. Jet-lagged or not, I told myself, I should find the patience to respond gracefully. Then another American Jew asked me to explain the difference between Sunni and Shia Muslims. I told him to ask the internet.

I could be nicer, but I don't want to be. I am running low on patience.

Political Islam destroyed the Middle East we escaped, and it intends to take over the West where we settled. Every once in a while, a horrific attack makes the news. We watch the culture transform. We watch our backs, and we watch what our children are taught.

October 7 was a declaration of war on Western civilization. Yet most people still struggle to understand why the US attacked Iran. They can't connect the dots, not even between Hamas and the IRGC, or between Qatar and progressive students' support for the Palestinian cause. The masses are enchanted, and they are opening the doors to the enemy voluntarily. Across from the Bundestag, a German throws his flag on the ground and raises the Palestinian flag in its place. Across Europe, feminists side with the misogynistic regime in Iran.

And in our bastion of freedom, the United States, Mamdani is mayor of New York and El-Sayed has just been elected the first Muslim senator in American history. Many Michigan Jews refused to vote for him. But nearly six in ten of those who voted early still did. Atheists are siding with jihadists.

Since October 7, I have spent endless nights in dusty hotels around the world instead of in my comfortable home with my child. We are at war, and I owe him a fight for his future, and for the future of his children and their children. I am doing all I can to share my insights, raise awareness and say out loud what many won't. Including hundreds of hours on planes, in trains, on hair and make up. Trivialities, logistics, emails and comments.

So help me, will you? Since we are at war, at least take the time to learn the basics, so you can understand what is happening around us, to us, and ultimately to future generations.

Learn about political Islam and its history. Learn about the feud between Sunnis and Shia. Learn what happened in Iran in 1979. Learn about the Jews: their relationship with the Prophet Muhammad, their Temple, their Jerusalem. Learn about Al-Aqsa and why Islamists are obsessed with that mosque.

If I couldn't be bothered to learn, I would have supported the Palestinian cause. It's simple, easy, convenient and popular. It's also dangerous, because in the name of the Palestinian cause we will be stripped of basic freedoms you take for granted. Sooner or later, you too will lose the luxury of ignorance. By then, lamenting won't help us much.

Multiculturalism is the policy outcome of an idea that is itself the outcome of a culture-shaped void filling up with suicidal empathy.

This is why universal love for multiculturalism isn't the right move.

[Barbara Kay @BarbaraRKay]

Yes, we are very sad that the world's foremost human-rights theatres - the UN, NGOs and academia - hates Jews so much that they prefer to ignore a REAL famine so they have unlimited time to falsely condemn Israel for perpetrating a NON-famine.

[Mossadil Commentary @MOSSADil]

AN APOLOGY TO THE CHILDREN OF 🇸🇩 SUDAN, ON BEHALF OF 🇮🇱 THE JEWISH PEOPLE.

We are sorry.
We are sorry that the world's obsession with Israel has consumed so much of the world's attention that your suffering has become little more than a footnote.

While the world marches against Israel, your country is being torn apart.

An estimated 66,979 people have been killed over the past 12 months, although that figure remains unverified.

15.4 MILLION people urgently need shelter, according to the UN, while humanitarian aid supplies are running out.

Millions have been displaced. Children are starving. Families are being destroyed. An entire generation is growing up surrounded by war, hunger and death.

And who is fueling this catastrophe?
🇦🇪 UAE — Accused of backing the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
🇹🇷 🇮🇷 🇷🇺 🇪🇬 Turkey, Iran, Russia and Egypt — Linked to support for the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF).

While university campuses erupt in protests over Gaza, Sudanese children face unimaginable suffering.

And where are the marches? The boycotts? The flotillas? The emergency UN sessions? The celebrities? The student encampments?

Where is the outrage?

We are sorry that the world's fixation on the Jewish state has left so little oxygen for one of the greatest humanitarian catastrophes of our time.
Your lives matter. Your suffering matters. Your future matters.

But apparently, the world's attention has conditions.
NO JEWS. NO NEWS.

All the large-scale means of production of blood libels are in the hands of Jews’ enemies. They are skilled in their use, having discovered that the propaganda war is more effective than literal terrorism at a lower cost and collaterally a successful means of attracting suicidally empathetic western followers.

[David Collier @mishtal]

I cannot remember a time when a blatant lie has spread across the world in the same way the genocide smear against Israel has.

It is so obviously untrue and yet has become an unquestionable truth for millions. Even being used as an excuse to attack Jews.

It's frightening.
