Canadian Convulsions > Montreal Burns while Trudeau is a Swifty

 

Trudeau Parties at Taylor Swift Concert

While Muslims Riot in Montreal


Feckless leaders are destroying the free world.

Western leaders sat and watched for a year while Muslim mobs and their Marxist allies terrorized Jews, shut down public events and assaulted police officers, while offering little more than toothless press releases, but Trudeau in Canada may have perfectly captured everything wrong with this mindset.

Trudeau pretending he’s still in his twenties and embracing the party scene as Muslim mobs make it clear that they intend to conquer, transform and destroy Canada perfectly encapsulates the decadence of the leftist managers of our decline.

Trudeau eventually popped up to promise consequences and accountability for the Montreal mobs. Will there be any? There haven’t been any or 14 months, not in Montreal or anywhere else. Initial condemnations of the latest outrageous act of Muslim violence are soon buried in media narratives that turn the violent perpetrators into victims, whether it’s in Gaza or in Amsterdam.

Feckless leaders are destroying the free world.



Trudeau also took time to trade Swiftie bracelets with dozens of fans. He would have known about the riots which began before the Taylor Swift concert.

His priorities are really screwed up.

Islamization of Europe > UK police, media, and gov't on wrong side of history; Austrian police arrest 3rd radicalized Muslim in Taylor Swift concert plot

 

UK: London police top dog vows to hunt down Americans who report about his country’s capitulation to Islam


Pamela Geller comments:

This is sharia law. Under Islamic law,  any criticism of Islam is criminal.

We have a First Amendment despite the left’s war on free speech. Despite that, The Biden/Harris regime would most likely allow it.

When I was banned from the UK (along with my colleague Robert Spencer) for my pro-Israel, counter jihad work — the UK government feared Muslim violence, “that significant public disorder and serious violence might ensue from the proposed visit”  — our lawsuit against the Crown revealed that the the UK government was told that their would not be any opposition or any reaction from the US [Obama] Administration to these exclusions.

This is true. After all, the Biden regime colluded with the social media giants to silence COVID dissidents. It considers Tulsi Gabbard a terrorist because she criticized the regime. And it tried to establish a Disinformation Governance Board to silence all dissenting speech. If fascist UK officials actually do come after people in the U.S. for reporting accurately about the British government’s capitulation to Islamic mobs, the Biden-Harris regime and Harris-Walz regime would likely aid them in their efforts to arrest the miscreants.

UK police commissioner threatens to extradite, jail US citizens

over online posts: ‘We’ll come after you'

by Alexander Hall, Fox News, August 10, 2024 (thanks to the Geller Report):

London’s Metropolitan Police chief warned that officials will not only be cracking down on British citizens for commentary on the riots in the UK, but on American citizens as well.

“We will throw the full force of the law at people. And whether you’re in this country committing crimes on the streets or committing crimes from further afield online, we will come after you,” Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley told Sky News.

Riots have broken out across the United Kingdom in recent days over false rumors spread online that an asylum seeker was responsible for a mass stabbing at a Taylor Swift-themed dance event that left three girls dead and others wounded. 

This is typical of far-left logic - claiming fake news because the kid who performed the massacre was not actually an immigrant. Axel Rudakubana was born in Wales. But despite there being no restriction on reporting on him, there has been no serious reporting of who he is. Where his parents immigrants? Was he Muslim? Was he sympathetic to Hamas and Islamic massacres? Who knows? British media has not bothered to answer these questions.

The problem now is that the MO of the murders has Islamic jihad written all over it. The teens who threatened Taylor Swift's concerts in Vienna, for them to be cancelled, were ISIS sympathizers. The jihadists who attacked the Ariana Grande concert were Muslims. Slitting throats is a popular Muslim method of killing people. Targetting little girls is another Islamic tradition. Are the British media and police covering up an Islamic link?

The murders, allegedly committed by a now 18-year-old British citizen born to Rwandan parents, sparked a series of violent protests that tapped into broader concerns about the scale of immigration in the U.K.

Footage of the violent clashes involving anti-immigration protesters and the groups of counter-protesters, some of whom have been seen waving Palestinian flags, has gone viral on social media, and the government is warning that sharing such content may have serious consequences.

One key aspect that makes this apparent crackdown on social media  particularly shocking to critics is that the British government is threatening to extradite American citizens from the U.S. to be jailed in the U.K. for violating their rules about political speech online.

A Sky News reporter asked Commissioner Rowley to further explain his warning, arguing that high profile figures have been “whipping up the hatred,” and that “the likes of Elon Musk” have been getting involved.

She then asked what the police force’s plan will be “when it comes to dealing with people who are whipping up this kind of behavior from behind the keyboard who may be in a different country?”

Rowley answered by telling the reporter, “Being a keyboard warrior does not make you safe from the law.”…

Most extradition agreements require the law that was broken in the offended country to also be a law in the country of the offender. Is there a law in America about 'whipping up the hatred'? 

Elon Musk is only speaking the truth about the UK, but far-left lunatics hate the truth. It just doesn't work for them, hence, they have to shut up those who dare to speak it.

In reality, it is the UK government, police, and media who are 'whipping up the hatred' by refusing to treat Islamic mobs and criminals with open and honest justice.

Aug. 9 (UPI) -- Austrian Interior Minister Gerhard Karner on Friday announced the arrest of a third person in a terror plot to attack a Taylor Swift concert in Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna.

Karner told reporters at a Friday press conference that the person arrested is an 18-year-old Iraqi who had been in contact with the 19-year-old main suspect in the terror plot to attack the Swift concert.

He said the third arrested suspect was not directly involved in the terror plan, but had pledged loyalty to the Islamic State.

According to Austrian security official Omar Haijawi-Pirchner, the 19-year-old was "clearly radicalized in the direction of the Islamic State and thinks it is right to kill infidels."

Haijawi-Pirchner said Thursday the main suspect in the plot had confessed he planned to kill himself and a large number of people.

Swift canceled her concerts in Vienna when the government confirmed the terror plot after the arrest of the Austrian 19-year-old.

When the main suspect was arrested Director General for Public Security Franz Ruf said in a statement that during the search of the suspect's home "we seized chemical substances, liquids, explosives and technical equipment that could be used to produce explosives."

Ruf said while the suspects appear to have radicalized themselves online, investigators don't believe ISIS operatives directed the alleged plot.

Austria: Two Muslims arrested, three Taylor Swift concerts

in Vienna canceled over planned jihad massacres


Austrian authorities would apparently have us believe that these two young Muslims were raised to be good “moderates,” rejecting “extremism,” until they encountered “radicals” online who “brainwashed” them. Why wasn’t the “moderate” Islam they supposedly learned at the local mosque sufficient to withstand the blandishments of the sinister online hijackers of Islam? I doubt Austrian authorities are pondering that question, its clear answer, or the implications of that answer.

Three Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna cancelled

over alleged planned terrorist attack

by Zahid Mahmood, CNN, August 7, 2024:

Three Taylor Swift concerts in Austria have been cancelled as Austrian authorities said on Wednesday that two suspects were arrested in connection with plans for an alleged attack in the Vienna region.

Swift was due to play three shows in Vienna between Thursday, August 8 and Saturday, August 10. Those dates were cancelled on Wednesday, according to Barracuda Music, the promoter for Swift’s concerts in Austria.

“With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone’s safety,” Barracuda music said in a post on social media….

Speaking at a press conference in the capital, police said a 19-year-old Austrian citizen, who they identify as a sympathizer of Islamic State, was arrested Wednesday morning in Ternitz, lower Austria, while another arrest was carried out later that morning in Vienna.

“The two suspects became radicalized by the internet, a 19-year-old citizen of Lower Austria made an oath of allegiance to the current leader of IS at the beginning of July,” police said.

Authorities continued to say the two suspects had undertaken “concrete preparatory measures” for a terrorist attack after police suspected explosives were stored at the home of the suspect in Ternitz….




Austria: Friend of Muslim who plotted jihad massacres at

Taylor Swift concerts hired security for the concerts


Here again, as with leftist media and bogus “fact-checkers” such as NewsGuard, the question remains: who watches the watchmen? The man hiring security for the Taylor Swift concerts was aiding the jihadis. Austrian officials headed off a major catastrophe. But they’re not out of the woods yet.

Taylor Swift cancellations: Who actually checks the security staff?


translated from “Taylor-Swift-Absagen: Wer überprüft eigentlich das Sicherheitspersonal?,” by Marco Weise, Kurier, August 8, 2024 (thanks to Jill):

The fact that one of the terror suspect’s friends is said to have hired security for the Taylor Swift concerts once again puts a spotlight on a part of the event industry that has been criticized for years, not just by fans.

One thing is clear: no concert, no football game, no festival, no party without security staff. They check the ticket, search you before you enter, take a look in your bag, are often the first people to contact in an emergency, are supposed to prevent panic, and intervene if there are arguments. The security personnel dressed in neon yellow or orange safety vests play a central role when it comes to implementing events. Nothing works without them….

The possibilities here are mind-blowing. What a potential disaster!

Germany: Muslims beat up German man because 

he drank beer and this is not allowed in Islam


A glimpse into the future of Germany, and Europe as a whole.

Berlin: Trio robs man in Rathausstrasse

translated from “Trio überfällt Mann (20) wegen Bierkonsum,” Bild, August 3, 2024 (thanks to Medforth):

Berlin – A 20-year-old was robbed and injured by three people in Mitte last night.

At around 2:15 a.m., the perpetrators reprimanded the young man for drinking beer for religious reasons. They then brought him to the ground and stole his cell phone and a bag with documents. The 20-year-old suffered a cut on his forearm.

Two of the suspects fled on foot in the direction of Museum Island. The third suspect, a 14-year-old, was held by the victim until the police arrived. The alerted officers recorded the personal details of the suspected perpetrator at a police station and handed him over to a legal guardian.

Rescue workers treated the injured 20-year-old on site. The investigation is being carried out by a specialist department of Police Directorate 5 (City).
