In 30 days every major European leader lands in Ankara for the NATO summit.
The host government held a secret Muslim Brotherhood summit in Istanbul in January. Delegations from Sudan, Libya, Somalia, Qatar and European Brotherhood chapters in the same room. Sudan's re-establishment on the agenda.
When I posted this thirteen days ago it reached 31,000 people.
Not one European government office responded.
Last week the EU Commission published a briefing asking whether Europe is prepared for another migration crisis driven by Sudan and Iran.
It did not mention that the country welcoming its leaders next month coordinated the Brotherhood's Sudan strategy five months ago.
The silence is not an oversight.
30 days.
In 43 days every major European leader flies to Ankara for the NATO summit. They will shake hands with the man who just hosted a secret Muslim Brotherhood summit, runs their European mosque network, and shelters Brotherhood figures expelled from Sudan, Egypt and Jordan. Nobody has briefed them.
I've done it for them. 🧵
🚨 EXCLUSIF BILD — Le patron du renseignement intérieur allemand alerte les députés du Bundestag : les Frères musulmans tentent d'infiltrer les partis pour transformer l'État et la société. Stratégie patiente, non violente, sur le long terme.

@acaciablack5 The current government is the furthest from liberal and yet the West hasn't woken up to it
In 2014 a Sudanese court sentenced a pregnant Christian woman to hang.
Her crime: apostasy. Born to a Muslim father, raised Christian her entire life. She gave birth to her daughter in chains in a Khartoum prison cell.
Her name was Meriam Ibrahim.
This was not ISIS. Not a failed state. This was Sudan's official judicial system functioning exactly as designed under the sharia architecture embedded into the state in 1983 and reinforced for 30 years by the Brotherhood government that followed.
Meriam was eventually released under global pressure. She now lives in America.
The legal architecture that sentenced her never left.
And right now in 2026 the movement that built it is actively attempting to recapture full state power in Sudan.
The Brotherhood's militia recaptured Khartoum last year. Its officers are embedded throughout the SAF. NCP figures are being quietly restored to judicial posts. The US designated the Sudanese Brotherhood a global terrorist organisation in March 2026 precisely because it identified this revival in real time.
This is not history repeating itself.
This is the same people. The same institutions. The same ideology. Attempting to rebuild the same state that sentenced Meriam Ibrahim to hang for being Christian.
The EU is being asked by its own MEPs to designate the Brotherhood a terrorist organisation.
Meriam's daughter is 12 years old. Born in chains in a Khartoum prison.
Europe is still deciding whether political islam is a threat or not.

@hypolassie I completely agree Paula
@BernaAyyldz15 A trick to distract from the ideology!
Yesterday's post about Meriam Ibrahim reached thousands of people.
Many of you asked: who exactly sentenced her? Who built that legal system? And is it really still there?
Here is the answer.
Omar al-Bashir ruled Sudan from 1989 to 2019. His government was not simply authoritarian. It was explicitly Islamist — built by and for the Muslim Brotherhood, embedding sharia law into the military, the judiciary, the banks and the civil service over 30 years.
The court that sentenced Meriam to hang for apostasy was not an aberration. It was the system working exactly as Bashir's Brotherhood government designed it to.
In 2009 the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Bashir. The charge: genocide in Darfur. Mass killings. Systematic rape. The deliberate destruction of ethnic communities.
Bashir was removed in a popular uprising in 2019. Sudanese people flooded the streets demanding secular democratic governance. The world called it a new dawn.
The officers who replaced him were the same officers his Brotherhood government had recruited, promoted and ideologically shaped over three decades. The institutions were the same. The networks were the same.
The revolution removed the man.
It did not remove the system that sentenced Meriam Ibrahim to hang.

The EU Commission passed 123 laws last year.
It assessed the economic and social impact of exactly 25 of them.
A new investigation by Gesamtmetall published today reveals the Commission is systematically ignoring its own rules on impact assessment passing legislation affecting millions of Europeans without ever asking what it will actually do.
This is the same institution passing the Return Regulation without assessing whether there are functioning states to return people to.
The same institution legislating on migration without assessing the ideological destruction producing the displacement.
The same institution that sidestepped its own MEPs' formal question on Brotherhood designation because answering it would require assessing something it has decided not to look at.
The Commission does not have a governance problem.
It has a looking-away problem.
And it has institutionalised it.

Integration was never meant to be a slogan. It means learning the language, contributing, respecting your neighbours, and buying into the British bargain that keeps the peace.I’m deeply grateful for the rule of law, the quiet order, the pubs and parks, and the culture worth preserving here. But we cannot sleepwalk into the long game of political Islam. Britain has something rare and valuable. We must protect it with honest integration not enclaves.
HRH Noor Pahlavi spoke in Oslo this week about growing up on her grandmother's stories of Iran.
Streets full of colour. Music. Art. Debate. Possibility.
I heard that sentence and it resonated.
That is what political Islam does. It does not just capture states and institutions. It steals the version of your country that only your grandparents remember. It turns living memory into mythology. It makes the place your family came from feel like a country that never existed.
The Iranian people have been fighting to reclaim theirs for 45 years.
That fight is not about just about geopolitics or nuclear deals or regional influence. It is about getting back the streets her grandmother described.
The Islamic Republic does not represent Muslims. It imprisons them, executes them and exports the ideology that suppresses them everywhere it reaches.
A free, secular, democratic Iran is not just an Iranian aspiration.
IT IS PROOF THAT POLTICAL ISLAM CAN BE DEFEATED
The world should be standing with it.
At her recent speech in Oslo, Norway, HRH Noor Pahlavi chose to highlight a moment in her life that resonated strongly with me.
“I grew up on my grandmother’s stories of Iran. She spoke of a nation with streets full of color—alive with music, art, debate, ambition, and possibility.”
This quote struck a chord with me because similarly, stories of wonder from my grandmother are the closest I’ve ever gotten to my homeland. And I’m confident I’m not alone when I say that. Much of Iranian Gen Z’s diaspora remains unable to return to Iran without fear of retaliation for expressing themselves in their own homeland. Imagine that.
The Iranian diaspora of my generation hasn’t been able to return home, but our hearts beat in sync with our fellow brothers and sisters inside the country.
Together, we aim to embrace the music sounding from every street corner. To reestablish a nation where mornings are greeted by the singing of birds, rather than deadly “calls to prayer.” And we strive to be the ones paving the way for a new job market where every aspiring entrepreneur or artist or musician can thrive.
And soon? We can finally return to a home bubbling with laughter instead of drowning in tears. We can only ask the rest of the world stands with us through supporting complete collapse of the Islamic Republic. Only the transitional leadership of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi can result in a peaceful, secular, democratic Iran, where the power truly does lie with the people.
@spikedonline And yet somehow the reverse is happening. This country needs to have a serious discussion about immigration

Financial Times hits the bullseye today on migration.
Governments are scared of tackling the immigration dilemma. Rich economies desperately need workers to sustain growth and support ageing populations. Yet voters keep signalling deep unease not just about numbers, but about housing pressure, strained services, and the slower erosion of social cohesion.
As a secular Muslim who chose Britain, I get both sides of this tension. Economic arguments for migration are straightforward. The harder part is cultural: ensuring newcomers actually join the shared life of the country rather than retreat into parallel worlds.
Politicians dodge the trade-offs because honest debate gets branded as intolerance. But avoiding it only builds resentment and makes problems harder to fix.We need smarter policy: prioritise skills and willingness to integrate, enforce standards on language and values, and stop pretending that volume alone equals success. Britain’s strengths stability, openness to debate, functioning institutions are worth safeguarding, not diluting through fear of difficult choices.

@SuellaBraverman @reformparty_uk The government needs to get rid of this paralyzed virtue signalling fear and call out issues in a calm and analytical way. The discussions about immigration are no different.
