UK cop arrested for supporting Hamas
What’s surprising is that in shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain, this man was arrested. It would have been less surprising if he had been made chief of police.
British cop arrested for supporting Hamas online
JNS, November 13, 2024:
Counter-terrorism officers in the United Kingdom arrested a policeman in southwestern England on Tuesday on suspicion of online activity linked to supporting Hamas.
Counter Terrorism Policing South West officers arrested the man in Gloucester, the BBC reported on Wednesday. The officer, who is in his 30s, was taken to a police facility outside Gloucestershire, the BBC reported on Wednesday. It did not say how he expressed or engaged in support for Hamas.
Authorities searched the policeman’s home and vehicle to locate and analyze digital devices, according to Gloucestershire Police Assistant Chief Constable Arman Mathieson.
“The arrest of a serving officer on suspicion of such a serious offense will no doubt cause our communities concern, as it does everyone who works for Gloucestershire Police,” Mathieson told the BBC. “The arrest has been made to allow for a prompt and effective investigation to take place and we must not draw any conclusions at this stage.”
In the U.K., providing support to a proscribed terrorist group, such as Hamas, violates section 12 of the Terrorism Act….
Russian authorities accused of being ‘too zealous’
in their desire to punish Qur’an burner
It’s easy to tell the intentions of Russian authorities toward Zhuravel from the fact that his Qur’an-burning case was moved from Volgograd to Chechnya. They want him dead, to serve as an example to others. But eventually Russian authorities will discover to their dismay that Muslim leaders will not find it necessary to reciprocate their solicitude.
Case of Zhuravel, who burned down Koran, evidences voluntary law interpreting
Caucasian Knot, November 15, 2024
(thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The treason case of Nikita Zhuravel is being considered at the place where the alleged crime was committed, although the case of burning the Koran was transferred from Volgograd to Chechnya. The voluntary nature of Zhuravel’s testimonies on treason remains in question, but the closed nature of the trial does not allow his statements to be heard.
The “Caucasian Knot” has reported that on February 27, 2024, a court in Grozny sentenced Zhuravel to 3.5 years in colony, finding him guilty of violating the right to religion and of hooliganism. On October 3, the Russian General Prosecutor’s Office (GPO) announced the initiation of a new treason case. According to investigators, Zhuravel offered cooperation to an agent of the Ukrainian security service and sent him a video showing the military equipment of the Russian Armed Forces….
The treason charges were a matter of time after Zhuravel’s confession about his ties with Ukrainian special services, says Svetlana Gannushkina*, the head of the “Civic Assistance” Committee*….
According to Ms Gannushkina*, authorities are too zealous in its desire to punish Zhuravel. “It is, of course, bad to burn the Koran down, but everything that has happened to Zhuravel since then is even worse; not only for him, but also for interrelations of Muslims with non-Muslims. Any faith needs no protection of this kind,” she has concluded.
She seems to be blaming his treason charges on being a result of his burning the Quran 'down'. I suggest his treason charges are far more important to Russian judges than the Quran burning.
France: Muslim migrant teen tried to obtain weapons,
plotted jihad massacre at synagogue
Translation: “#Terrorism The 16-year-old minor suspected of planning an attack arrested on November 5 on the outskirts of #Mans is of French nationality and Chechen origin. He is said to have tried to obtain weapons and to have carried out research on the location of the synagogue in Le Mans.

The National Anti-Terrorism Prosecutor’s Office (PNAT) confirmed on Tuesday the opening of a judicial investigation into a minor born in 2008. The teenager was arrested, charged and placed in pre-trial detention last week for a planned attack in France considered by the courts to be terrorist-inspired, AFP learned from concordant sources on Tuesday.
A source close to the case confirmed in particular the arrest and police custody last week of this minor from western France, for a plan to commit violent action on the territory.
The PNAT declared that it had opened a judicial investigation on Friday for “terrorist criminal association with a view to committing crimes against persons”.
Few details disclosedThe accused “was indicted on this charge and placed in pretrial detention,” added the PNAT, refusing to provide further details on the motivations for this planned action, or on its progress at the time of the arrest.On Thursday, Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau mentioned an attack foiled “some time ago” that “a very dangerous individual on the verge of committing the act” allegedly attempted to commit.
The last arrests for a plan for violent action in France date back to mid-October.
A “very sharp increase in minors implicated”A 22-year-old Afghan, who was a supporter of the Islamic State ideology according to the anti-terrorism prosecutor’s office, was indicted and then imprisoned, suspected of having “fomented” a “plan for violent action” in a football stadium or a shopping center.During the period of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, three attacks were foiled, according to the authorities. Five people were indicted, including a minor teenager, in these cases.
The “jihadist threat represents 80% of the procedures” initiated by the PNAT, anti-terrorism prosecutor Olivier Christen recalled in mid-September. “In the first half of 2024, there were approximately three times as many procedures” of this type than during the same period in 2023, he added.

Nigel Farage goes to court
Reform UK have instructed private investigators to bring a prosecution
Joshua Rozenberg
Nov 17, 2024
Nigel Farage MP is seeking to bring criminal proceedings against two people allegedly involved in a brawl at Manchester Airport on 23 July that led to complaints about two-tier policing.
Writing in today’s Telegraph, the Reform UK leader and his deputy Richard Tice MP say they have instructed a specialist company to “do” a private prosecution.
TM Eye Ltd, an Essex-based private investigations company that has brought “more than 1,000 successful prosecutions from shoplifters to international criminal gangs”, has written to Greater Manchester Police and the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) “setting the ball in motion”.
The company employs former police officers and other specialist investigators. Evidence they obtain is then submitted for review by TM Eye’s “legal partners”.
The allegations
In footage circulated online, a police officer appears to be kicking a man during an arrest. Footage that emerged subsequently indicates that officers had previously come under attack.
Farage alleges that four officers were floored by two individuals in a rapid, ferocious attack. Bones were broken of one female police officer. The officers must have wondered what was going on, why were they being attacked so aggressively. Split-second reactions and judgments were being made by the officers to save themselves and possibly protect other members of the public.
The Reform UK leaders’ announcement comes as no surprise. It was reported by the Mail on Sunday yesterday. On 7 October, Farage’s entire parliamentary party told the home secretary that it would “organise a private criminal prosecution” if charges were not brought by the CPS:
Farage and Tice say today they believe the CPS is waiting for the result of an investigation by the Independent Office for Police Conduct before deciding on charges.
But trying to get ahead of police and prosecutors may not be as easy as the MPs believe.
Private prosecutions
When the CPS was established nearly 40 years ago, parliament specifically preserved the right of “any person” to institute criminal proceedings in England and Wales.
But there are important exceptions. At that time, well over a hundred acts of parliament required a private prosecutor to obtain the consent of the director of public prosecutions or the attorney general before proceeding. More such requirements have since been introduced.
The director of public prosecutions may take over a private prosecution at any stage. He or she can then discontinue it — even after the accused has been sent for trial. The attorney general retains a common law power to enter a nolle prosequi — which brings the proceedings to an end — and the courts have statutory power to restrict vexatious criminal proceedings.
In the Telegraph, Farage and Tice say:
We are also making it clear to the CPS that we will not tolerate it hijacking our prosecution, then dropping it for political reasons later on.
The director of public prosecutions is “not… obliged to give the accused any indication of his reasons for not wanting the proceedings to continue”. But although the director operates under the “superintendence” of the attorney general, he or she would be subject to judicial review if prosecution decisions were taken for “political” reasons.
Starting a prosecution
The author of the long-running and well informed Magistrates’ Blog — a retired district judge last time I checked — wrote yesterday that launching a private prosecution was very straightforward:
Effectively the individual wishing to commence the prosecution sends the court a written summary of the offences they accuse another of committing. This written information is then considered by either a justices’ clerk (or assistant) or justice of the peace, who will issue a summons if they think there could be a case to answer.
At this stage the bar is not very high and as long as the accused is correctly identified and a criminal allegation made, it would likely proceed to summons.
Times change. Justices’ clerks were replaced by legal advisers in 2018. Last Wednesday, the High Court dismissed a challenge by Ben Whitehead, from Staincross, Barnsley — a would-be private prosecutor whose application for a summons had been turned down. His only connection with the alleged offence was that he had seen a recording of it on YouTube. The judgment is so recent and its evidence is so similar to Farage’s that TM Eye’s legal partners are bound to have alerted him to it.
Whitehead ran a company called Legalitic, offering legal advice to the public. He saw footage of an incident in 2020 during which a police sergeant from Dorset Police had arrested a motorist. Whitehead regarded the arrest as unlawful and sought a summons against the officer.
Whitehead’s application came before Deputy Senior District Judge Ikram at Westminster Magistrates’ Court. Having received detailed oral and written submissions, Ikram dismissed the application.

Berlin Police Chief Describes ‘No-Go Zones’
Where Jews and Gays Shouldn’t Go
“No-Go Zones: The Myth That Just Won’t Quit”
In the previous decade, there was a lot of debate about the existence of no-go zones, areas in European cities under the control of Muslim forces where the law did not apply. The authorities officially denied that such places existed, as did the media, even though they were widely described.
Here’s the Berlin police chief finally saying it out loud.
Berlin Police Chief Barbara Slowik has issued a warning to Jews and LGBTQ+ individuals to exercise caution in certain areas of the German capital amid rising antisemitism and hate crimes. Speaking to the press, Slowik emphasized the need for vigilance in the wake of recent events, particularly following the attack by the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas on Israel on October 7, 2023.
“There are no so-called no-go areas, meaning areas that are too dangerous to enter,” Slowik stated, as reported by Die Zeit. “However, there are areas, and we must be honest at this stage, where I would advise people who wear a kippah or are openly homosexual or lesbians to be more attentive,” she added, emphasizing the importance of caution in public spaces.
Highlighting the tensions in certain neighborhoods, Slowik explained, “Unfortunately, there are certain neighborhoods where predominantly Arab-descended people live, who also have sympathies for terrorist groups,” and where “open anti-Semitism is articulated there against people of Jewish faith and origin,” according to Der Standard – Archäologie. She stressed that her intention was not to stigmatize any community, stating, “I do not want to ‘defame’ any particular group of people as perpetrators,” as reported by Süddeutsche Zeitung.
Refugees welcome. Everyone else unwelcome.
For the first time since the fall of Nazi Germany, Jews are once again not safe in Berlin. Not to mention gays.
None of this is news to anybody, but it’s the sort of thing that is fashionable to deny by the same sorts of people who claim that rising crime is also imaginary and that there would be no Islamic terrorism if it weren’t for cartoons.
The media and lefty activists still claim that “no-go zones” are an Islamophobic conspiracy theory.

The conspiracy theory seems to be so alive and well that the Berlin police chief has to warn gays and Jews not to go into these places… which don’t exist.
