A decade ago today, on 31 August 2015, Angela Merkel made the unilateral decision to open Europe’s borders. The rallying cry of the German Chancellor has gone down in history: ‘Wir schaffen das’ – ‘We can do this’. If we can’t, she added, ‘if Europe fails on the question of refugees, then it won’t be the Europe we wished for’. Merkel was motivated by conflict in the Middle East, notably in Syria and Iraq, but her invitation to seek refuge in Europe was seized on by many others. Of the estimated 1.3 million people who flooded into Europe in 2015,...

@realMaalouf PAKISTAN: a woman was raped, and instead of arresting the rapist, the Sharia council decided that the rapist’s sister should be raped by the victim’s brother. The innocent teenage girl was publicly raped in front of 40 people in a practice called ‘revenge rape’ in Sharia law. It’s not racist to acknowledge that this culture is not compatible with the West!

Archive 2/2010 You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your FREEDOM to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love. Gal 5:13 During the campaign Premier Obortion said, if his daughter made a mistake and got pregnant he didn’t want to punish her w/a baby. Could there be a more heartless way of looking at a baby as not only a mistake but a punishment? This is especially disturbing since he was not only a mistake by a teenage mother, but was very likely a rape which all pro-death advocates say should be...

It also involved widespread forced displacement, scorched‑earth destruction of the second and third largest cities (Hargeisa and Burao),...

Things are not happy in Monterey County. The California county, which Kamala won by 63%, is considered a ‘sanctuary’ for illegal aliens by the Department of Homeland Security. But that sanctuary status was recently violated and local officials are outraged. So is the Solidarity Network: a pro-illegal alien group that ‘monitors’ immigration enforcement arrests. Monterey County Board of Supervisors Chair Chris Lopez responded by announcing that a maternal health walk was cancelled. “Monterey County deeply values the contributions of our immigrant workers and families that strengthen our local communities and economy,” Monterey County Supervisor Luis Alejo posted. The Monterey Solidarity...

Germany is grappling with a severe crisis in sexual violence, as evidenced by the latest Police Crime Statistics (PKS), which reported 13,320 cases of rape and sexual assault in 2024. Over the past five years, these offenses have surged by approximately 50 percent. In response to this escalating threat, some experts are exploring unconventional “technical aids” to combat sexual violence. Sociologist Julia Wegen from Ravensburg-Weingarten University and Dr. Urs Schneider from the Fraunhofer Institute for Health Technology in Stuttgart have proposed a study to evaluate the effectiveness of a South African anti-rape device known as “Rape-aXe” as a potential deterrent.

If it were me, and I’d just won a large judgment based on my claim that I experienced forceful sexual assault in a department store dressing room by an aggressive and powerful man who towers over me, an experience that caused me severe trauma after the event, I wouldn’t write a book capitalizing on one of my attackers most iconic catchprases, and I certainly wouldn’t be tweeting about him nonstop, nearly thirty years after the act at the center of my lawsuit. I would want to block that man out of my life as much as possible lest his name,...

The founder of an LGBT “pride” group in the United Kingdom has been sentenced to 24 years in prison for what the BBC described as a “string of sexual offences against children.” Stephen Ireland, 41, was sentenced to 24 years in prison by a judge last week for raping a child he met on a gay dating app. Ireland met a 12-year-old boy online and became aware he was not of age, but told the child they could enter into a relationship as long as it was kept “secret,” the BBC reported.
