During the Ottoman period, Muslims enjoyed performing all kinds of mutilations. Ears, noses, lips, tongues, breasts, and genitals were primarily cut off. Not just those, though. Let's recall here the Saint Raphael of Mytilene, who was hanged from a tree and had his lower jaw cut off, while the twelve-year-old martyr Irene was roasted in a barrel on the Tuesday of Easter in the year 1463, ten years after the fall of Constantinople.

(picture 1: Saint Irene, picture 2: Saint Raphael)

In many cases, the severed body parts "adorned" the warrior collection of the janissary. The pashas gave bakshish (tips) to every "brave" Muslim warrior according to how many ears of "infidel" Christians he brought back. He himself confirmed his bravery and "manliness" among his peers by having a "komboloi" (worry beads) made from the nipples of breasts he had cut off from women. The bravest man was the one with the longest komboloi after a massacre and looting.

Blinding with various sharp objects was also common. This was particularly frequent during periods of massacres and atrocities. Many unfortunate Christians remained blind for the rest of their lives because they had the misfortune of a horde of janissaries passing through their land. The Egyptians under Ibrahim Pasha were especially notorious for this crime.

Many times Christian captives were placed in front of cannons that were fired, turning them into human shreds of flesh. In other cases, they were tied to galleys that sailed in opposite directions and were torn apart. Dismemberment of victims also occurred with horses.

Indeed, Islam is the religion of peace.

The 2nd of September, at 8pm, the entire country of Spain will gather in front of the town halls to protest against the invasion of Ceuta.

I will definitely be going.
Our country is not for sale!

Pedro Sánchez must resign. NOW.

Turkey didn’t kill 70,000 people. It killed over 4.5 million. It’s arguably the most genocidal nation in history.

But you’ll never hear Hasan Piker speak about the horrors that his own people have committed.

I wonder why!

🇪🇸🔴 JUST IN: A local Spanish mother in Ceuta demolishes a left-wing TV host sitting comfortably in Madrid during a debate about immigration.

The host tries to claim it is "dangerous" to say all the migrants should leave Spain.

The mother explodes: "If they came by violating a border, they must return in the same way. Because our children are not to blame. My children were locked up in my house... My children are 14 and 12 years old. Is it right that they can't go to the beach?"

The mother then appears to leave the host stunned, at least for a moment: "Bring your kids here! Bring them if you have the guts! Sitting in Madrid all dressed up, it's very easy."

"Who protects my children's rights? Their mother here, standing firm, not sitting in a studio like you!"

She delivers a final warning: "We in Ceuta are tough nuts to crack! And we're going to be here, fighting hard and making noise until the last day!"

This mother eloquently and passionately expresses the frustrations of thousands of Ceuta locals as a crowd cheers her on in the background.

🇪🇸🇲🇦 A hacker group called Jabaroot leaked the identities of over 70K Moroccan intelligence and security agents online, calling it "a gift to Spain" during the Ceuta migration crisis.

The leak includes names, national ID numbers, birth dates, and even bank details for agents across Morocco's 2 main spy agencies, including 21 top officials.

Jabaroot claims the July mass crossing into Ceuta was actually orchestrated by senior Moroccan intelligence figures, including agency chief Abdellatif Hammouchi and a top royal advisor, though the group says Morocco's King himself knew nothing about it.

They're threatening to release further evidence, including alleged mission orders given to agents before the crossing.

The Spanish police have opened fire on crowds in Ceuta tonight. They are shooting rubber bullets.

They are shooting at Spaniards protesting against illegal migration. They didn’t fire rubber bullets at the 70 000 illegal migrants when they stormed Ceuta in July.

After the Reformation swept through Lithuania, the little church in Šiluva was lost. The building was completely destroyed.

The land passed into Calvinist hands. For decades the place where the Mass had been offered was only a field, plowed, sown, and grazed. The deeds that proved the Church’s claim were gone. Most of the village no longer remembered that anything holy had ever stood there.

Then, one summer day in 1608, shepherd children tending their flock saw a woman on a large rock in that field. She was beautiful. She held a Child. She was weeping.
Word ran through the village. The next day the children came back with a crowd, and with a Calvinist pastor. He saw her too. Gathering his courage, he asked why she wept.

She answered that there was a time when her beloved Son was worshipped on that very spot. Now the ground was given only to the plow and the seed.

An old blind man, more than a hundred years old, heard what had happened. Years before, he had helped the last parish priest bury an ironclad chest near a rock when the church was falling. They led him to the field. At the place of the apparition his sight returned. He pointed to the ground.

They dug. Inside the chest, perfectly preserved, were the church deeds, vestments, chalices, and a painting of Mary and the Child.

In 1622 the land was restored to the Catholic Church. A church rose again on the old site. The region that had nearly been lost to the faith returned. On 17 August 1775, Pope Pius VI confirmed the apparition.

The image was later crowned. Šiluva became Lithuania’s great Marian shrine, sometimes called the Lithuanian Fatima.

It is one of the earliest well-documented apparitions in Europe. What makes it rare is this: Protestants stood there and saw her. Heaven did not wait for the ground to be Catholic again before it spoke. She came to a field that had forgotten her Son, and she wept until memory, law, and worship were put back in their place.

I have a theory on why John Thune is making no effort whatsoever to pass the SAVE America Act.

The globalist RINOs like Thune understand that if we actually have voter integrity in place we will end up with a large majority in the Senate.

If we have a large majority in the Senate, the RINOs will no longer be able to block pro-Trump legislation.

If Trump's legislation actually becomes law people will love it and the RINOs may never get rid of MAGA. And MAGA is the opposite of globalism.

Interesting history I read on fb. 👇

August 21, 1883. Just after six in the evening, the sky over Rochester, Minnesota turns the color of a bruise. Twenty minutes later, a third of the town is gone. Thirty seven people are dead. More than two hundred are bleeding in the streets.

Rochester had no hospital. Not one.

So a convent school on the edge of town emptied out. The nuns walked into the wreckage in full habits, and a woman named Mother Alfred Moes, an immigrant from Luxembourg who had come to America with almost nothing, sent word to the only doctor in town who could handle that many wounded.

His name was William Worrall Mayo. He was 64, an English country doctor, a hard skeptic on the subject of religion.

The sisters took over Rommel's dance hall and turned it into a hospital overnight. None of them had ever been trained in nursing. They learned it standing up, with Mayo giving orders and the injured laid out on the floorboards.

When the last patient was gone, Mother Alfred went to see him.

She told him Rochester needed a real hospital. A permanent one. She said she had seen it, a great hospital rising out of the cornfields on the west edge of town, and that she wanted him to run it.

Mayo told her the truth. A building like that would cost $40,000. Well over a million in today's money. He said no congregation of schoolteaching nuns could possibly raise it.

She did not argue with him. She simply told him that if he would take charge of the hospital, the sisters would take charge of paying for it.

Then she went out and did it.

For six years, her sisters taught school and handed over their wages. Every dollar. She bought nine acres of farmland. She hired the builders. She oversaw the plans herself, and when the money ran short, she found more.

Saint Marys Hospital opened on September 30, 1889. Twenty seven beds. Thirteen sisters, none of them nurses by training. Dr. Mayo, now 70, walked in as chief of staff with his two sons, Will and Charlie, beside him.

Those two boys built their surgical practice inside her building. Patients started arriving from Chicago, then from every state, then from overseas. The brothers formalized the partnership in 1919 and gave it their family name.

Mayo Clinic. Today it treats more than a million patients a year and is ranked the best hospital in the United States.

Mother Alfred Moes died on December 18, 1899, ten years after the doors opened. She never saw what it became.

The Mayo brothers always said it plainly. Their father did not want the hospital. The nun did. She built it, and then she handed them the keys.

Millions of Americans have made the drive to Rochester with someone they love in the passenger seat. Almost none of them know that the whole thing started with a 54-year-old woman standing in tornado wreckage, refusing to accept a no.

Pc: Dutch Valkema.

My father in law got the best treatment for colon cancer at the Mayo Clinic. Amazing hospital.

[Sharyl Attkisson 🕵️‍♂️💼🥋 @SharylAttkisson]

This sounds familiar.

I'll never forget when CBS News assigned me to do regular Follow the Money stories on outrageous Congressional earmarks.

I was told they were among our viewers' most popular features. There were endless targets to investigate and expose.

After a couple of yrs of such reporting, both Ds and Rs were complaining to CBS execs. about the negative publicity given to their earmarks. It even led to a "ban" on earmarks (not really a ban but a limit, for a time).

Anyway, around this time, during a meeting with a network executive, he suggested that hey, I'd really done a great job but maybe starting now we should really only go after earmarks that were $10 million or maybe even $100 million or more.

I explained that the smaller earmarks were often among the most relatable, wasteful, and outrageous.

Limiting the reporting to $100 million+ (or even $10 million) would mean highlighting only giant programs like $1 billion+ fighter jet earmark the military didn't want ... but not the $500,000 of your tax money for a local teapot museum, or many earmarks of your cash given by a member of Congress to a favored donor's boondoggle.

Follow the Money had been a one- to two-times a week feature. But pretty soon it kind of just fell off the schedule.

Spanish police unions in Ceuta have reported that groups of invaders are kidnapping young girls, dragging them to the mountains and gang raping them.

Authorities have documented multiple cases of sexual assault since the mass invasion, with many of the victims being minors.

The situation has prompted emergency efforts to rescue girls and escort them to safety under armed guard.

🚨 MAJOR SCOTUS VICTORY on Mail-in-Ballots Rules...Lifts Ban on 23 States

The Supreme Court has just overruled a block placed by an Obama Judge preventing Trump's Executive Order to implement safeguards for Mail-in-Ballots.

The ruling now means states must:

-Turn over a list of every voter getting a ballot

-Put unique serialized barcodes on both the outgoing and return envelopes

If a state refuses, USPS will not deliver those ballots.

This is a major election integrity win.

I love seeing the city of Barcelona finally standing up against the invasion we face on a daily basis.

[Nick shirley @nickshirleyy]

California has officially signed the “Stop Nick Shirley Act” (AB 2624) into law. This bill was created only after I exposed widespread fraud in immigrant communities across America, specifically in California’s Medicaid, nonprofits and other welfare programs funded by our tax dollars.

These politicians need the fraud to continue and they sadly use immigrants to do so often. They fund nonprofits and NGOs with hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars every year for immigration services, including free healthcare and have now made “immigration support service providers” essentially a protected class in California.

For example, if I film a hospice or a “learing center” with no patients receiving millions through Medicaid and the owner gives me a paper saying I cannot publish the video, I cannot publish it. If I publish it to expose them and they claim it caused them “fear” or a third party threatens them, I face a minimum $4,000 civil fine plus the legal fees of the individual or group suing me.

This bill was created by the Attorney General’s wife and co-sponsored by CHIRLA, a nonprofit that has received over $80,000,000 in taxpayer dollars for “immigrant support services.” Do you understand how this works yet? When the fraud is exposed, they create new laws to protect the fraudsters and penalize those who expose it.

By signing this bill, the Governor and California politicians expose themselves as the corrupt politicians they are. This is not the end, the fight has just begun. More to come soon, this is far from over.
