The indigenous peoples of North Africa are the Amazigh, widely known as Berbers, alongside ancient Egyptian and Nubian populations in the east. Copts are Egypt’s indigenous Christian community and descendants of ancient Egyptians.
All these communities were violently conquered, colonized and converted by Arab Muslims beginning in the seventh century.
We need to talk much more about Islam’s history of conquests, colonization, massacres, and enslavement in Africa and across the world.
Do yall remember when Melanie Martinez scammed her fans by charging 400 dollars and making them think they would meet her, only for them to just get a laggy animation of her added next to them as a filter 😭😭
His name was Håvard Pedersen, an 18-year-old Norwegian boy.
While working at a Coop store in Vadsø, an Afghan asylum seeker (whom police later believed was possibly Pakistani) walked in, grabbed a utility knife from a shelf, and stabbed him to death completely unprovoked.
There was no prior connection or motive. Håvard died within minutes. The entire attack was captured by security cameras.
The killer’s real name was never made public. He used multiple identities, and Norwegian authorities never released a confirmed full name.
The most disgusting parts:
1. The killer fled, jumped into the sea, and was arrested hours later. He was found psychotic, ruled not criminally responsible, and sentenced only to compulsory psychiatric care.
2. National media and the local community rushed to excuse the “poor misunderstood migrant,” and news of Håvard’s death was quickly buried.
