France: Algerian migrant with deportation order charged for burglarizing evacuated homes in wildfires


It isn’t just one Algerian migrant with a deportation order who was burglarizing evacuated homes from wildfires, it was “illegal migrants” — note the plural. But the Algerian was the one who was charged.

France, like other Western countries which are lax on immigration, is crumbling under lawlessness and threats of jihad, all while authorities have been repeatedly protecting illegals. This is one description:

France Wildfires: Migrant Charged with Robbing Evacuated Homes

by Kurt Zindulka, Breitbart, August 18, 2026:

An Algerian migrant with a deportation order has been accused of burglarising homes in the Gironde region of France after they were evacuated as a result of the wildfires ravaging the area.

Hundreds of thousands of residents had their lives turned upside down due to the devastating forest fires in South West France, which are believed to be some of the most significant since the Second World War, seeing over 104,000 acres set on fire over the summer.

However, some in the Cestas commune in Gironde were not just victimised by the fires, but also allegedly by illegal migrants who burglarised homes that had been evacuated, the local Sud Ouest paper reported.

This includes a 28-year-old Algerian, who is said to have robbed at least five evacuated homes, despite having an OQTF “Obligation de Quitter le Territoire Français” deportation order after having been convicted of four previous crimes in France.

Security camera footage put the migrant on the scene of the crimes, and DNA evidence confirmed his presence in at least some of the five homes, which was further corroborated by geolocation data from his phone.

Despite the apparent overwhelming evidence against him, the Algerian national claimed that he was merely a lookout for his yet-to-be-detained accomplice.

 The trial for the Algerian national will continue in October. In the meantime, he will remain behind bars, as he still has two other prison sentences to serve for prior crimes.

The case has once again highlighted the contentious system surrounding deportation orders in France, which manages to remove less than one in ten migrant criminals per year.

A survey last year found that 86 per cent of French voters believe that the government should detain migrants with OQTF orders until they are deported from the country, rather than the current system, which often allows prospective deportees to remain on the streets until the date of their removal.





Cambridge hired Muslim academic who said ‘Western education is a threat’

It wasn’t just Jason Arday. The academic rot and self-hatred of Western civilization goes extremely deep. It is hard to see how these institutions can be reformed; at very least, they should not be trusted.

Cambridge Hired Anti-Western Education Academic Linked to Islamist Terror Group

by Jules Gomes, Middle East Forum, August 19, 2026:

Cambridge University is under fire for hiring Farah Ahmed, a former pamphleteer for Hizb ut-Tahrir, an Islamist organization that seeks establish a global Islamic Caliphate. In 2002, she warned her readers that British Muslims need “to recognise that Western education is a threat to our beliefs and values.

The University of Cambridge is under fire for recruiting a Muslim scholar with past ties to an outlawed Islamist movement who trashed Western education as hostile to Islamic principles.

Farah Ahmed, who has denounced British schools for teaching that “polygamy or marriage under the age of 16” is “archaic and discriminatory to women,” was appointed Assistant Research Professor in the University of Cambridge’s Faculty of Education last year.

Now is the time for us to recognize that if society is built on Kufr, it is our duty to tackle this challenge as a community in order to protect our young from its corruption.

Ahmed presents her views on Western education in her chapter, “The Western Education System and the British National Curriculum,” in the book Education and Identity: The Dilemma of Muslims in the West, published by Istinarah Press, an Islamic publisher, in 2017.

On August 11, The Spectator revealed that Ahmed was a former supporter of Hizb ut-Tahrir, a terrorist organization aspiring to establish a global Islamic Caliphate. U.K. officials banned the organization in 2024. Ahmed first wrote her essay as a Hizb ut-Tahrir pamphlet in 2002, warning that British Muslims need “to recognize that Western education is a threat to our beliefs and values.”…

Ahmed writes that the Western education system “will not be suitable to the needs of Muslim students as the ‘adeeqah [belief system] of the Muslim is in complete contradiction to this.”

“Those of us who have been through the Western education system, and have subsequently started practicing Islam, can recognise the effect on our personalities. It takes many years before even the most obvious Kufr [disbelief] concepts and values can be completely removed and our behavior substantially improved,” Ahmed warns.

The academic’s essay portrays “democracy” as a “corrupt tradition” where students are not told that “only a few people make the decisions and determine the laws that rules (sic) everyone else.”

Ahmed singles out English as “one of the most damaging subjects,” as children are taught to identify genres of myths, legends, and fables. Thus, Muslim children will be taught from “Greek and Hindu myths” which contain “idolatrous beliefs,” and when they are told, in the mosque, about Mohammad riding a winged horse, they might assume that “this is also a made-up legend.

Gosh! Ya think?

 

The academic attacks religious studies for putting Islam “on the same level as Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, Sikhism and the like” and promoting the idea of “inter-faith” and “religious tolerance.”

“Issues such as the definition of women’s awrah [parts of the body that must be covered in front of others] and the concept of men being allowed to marry up to four wives are put on a forum for discussion. Hence, the words of man are being placed above the words of Allah (swt) and His Messenger Mohammad (saw),” Ahmed warns.

“The Islamic State produced mathematicians who surpassed each other in their brilliance, yet this fact is completely ignored,” she laments. “The impression is given that science is purely a Western discipline and that this is part of what makes Western civilization superior.”

Ahmed slams even the teaching of dance in the classroom as “troublesome for Muslim children, especially when they are in mixed boy-girl classes.” Equally problematic, in her opinion, is teachers asking boys and girls to work as partners on classwork or homework.

In conclusion, she writes: “Now is the time for us to recognize that if society is built on Kufr, it is our duty to tackle this challenge as a community in order to protect our young from its corruption.”…

It was so nice of Cambridge to give this poor, pathetic creature the very platform she desires to bring about the change she sees as being necessary.

These Iraqis apparently came to Europe in order to wage jihad, and there are almost certainly many others like them.

Germany Arrests Two Iraqis on Suspicion of Belonging to the Terrorist Organization ‘ISIS

Shia Waves, August 17, 2026 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

German authorities have announced the arrest of two Iraqi men in the state of Saxony on suspicion of belonging to the terrorist organization “ISIS” and participating in its armed formations during the years of the organization’s activity.

The Extremism Prevention Agency of the High Public Prosecutor’s Office in Dresden stated on Friday that the arrest operation was carried out concurrently with searches of the suspects’ residences in the cities of Dresden and Königstein. They have been charged with belonging to a terrorist organization abroad.

The agency clarified that the defendants are aged 33 and 27, and are suspected of having worked as fighters in various formations affiliated with the terrorist organization “ISIS.” It is alleged that one of them participated in the organization’s ranks from February 2016 until May 2017, while the other’s involvement is accused to have lasted from April 2016 to February 2017.

The agency added that investigations indicate the suspects were receiving a monthly salary for their activities within the organization’s ranks. Meanwhile, the competent authorities continue to investigate the nature of the roles they are believed to have played during that period….


 


Native Britons Will Be a Minority in British Schools by 2036

Demography is destiny. This is something Muslims understand, but too many of those in the West among whom they have settled as yet do not. Former Algerian leader Houari Boumedienne, speaking at the UN in 1974, according to some accounts said this: “One day millions of men will leave the southern hemisphere to go to the northern hemisphere. And they will not go there as friends. Because they will go there to conquer it. And they will conquer it with their sons. The wombs of our women will give us victory.” More certain of attribution is the statement of Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi in a 2006 televised speech: “We have 50 million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe—without swords, without guns, without conquest—will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades.”

The late Italian journalist Oriana Fallaci wrote in The Rage and the Pride that “what Islamic armies have not been able to do with force in more than 1,000 years can be achieved in less than a century through high birth rates.” She cites as evidence a 1975 meeting of Islamic countries in Lahore, in which they announced their project to transform the flow of Muslim immigrants in Europe into “demographic preponderance.” The “sons of Allah,” as Fallaci called them, “do not make a secret of their plans. A Catholic bishop recounted that, during an interfaith meeting in Turkey, a respected Muslim cleric told the crowd: “Thanks to your democratic laws we will invade you. Thanks to our Islamic laws we will conquer you.” And Muslim political figures in the U.S. have been gloating about how “600 Muslims” are now running for office, a sign of a steady increase in Muslim representation and political power due to the rise in Muslim numbers.

The steady rise in the percentage of Muslims in Europe’s population can be attributed to two things. First, millions of Muslims continue to flow into Europe each year, many of them illegals, and all of them economic migrants hoping to take advantage of the cornucopia of benefits made available to them by the generous welfare states of the West. Second, the fertility rates of Muslims in Europe is 2.9, while for the non-Muslim indigenes the fertility rate is 1.4, far below the replacement level of 2.1. If nothing is done, either to halt Muslim migration and to reverse the Muslim presence through deportation, then the Muslim numbers will inexorably grow, and at some point — 2063 is one figure that has been given — Muslims in Europe will outnumber the indigenous non-Muslims.

An MP in the UK has just published his sobering findings on Muslim numbers in British schools. You can find it here: 


White British Students Set to Become a Minority in UK Schools Within 10 Years, MP Warns,” 

by Kurt Zindulka, Breitbart, August 17, 2026:

An analysis of public data conducted by a Member of Parliament has found that White British students are set to become a minority in UK classrooms within a decade.

Neil O’Brien, the Conservative MP for Harborough, Oadby and Wigston and Shadow Minister for Policy Renewal and Development, has noted that the impacts of decades of mass migration into Britain are set to have significant impacts on the demographic makeup of the country, and are likely to accelerate.

The lawmaker revealed his findings in an extended essay post analysing public data on jobs, births, and schools, in a bid to fill in understanding gaps that grow during the decade-long interim between national censuses and inform the debate in a country where compared to some European nations, government data on immigration and demographics can be poor.

According to O’Brien, Department of Education data shows that 2026 became the first year on record in which White British students represented fewer than 60 per cent of all pupils in UK state-funded secondary schools for the first time in history at just 59.4 per cent.

Extrapolating the trend lines, O’Brien’s model predicted that by the year 2036, White British students would become a minority in their own schools.

The MP noted that the rapid pace of change means that students who are starting their education this year will still be in school as foreigners overtake them as the majority.

This could have potentially dire consequences for such students, given that White working class students are already the most systematically disadvantaged of any group in the country….

The UK practices an extreme form of affirmative action, favoring “black and brown” applicants, and it is the white working class that has been paying for this virtue-signaling policy.

Posterity will not be kind either to the Labourite Tony Blair, the first UK prime minister to begin letting in huge numbers of Muslim migrants, nor to the Conservative Boris Johnson, who, possibly in a fit of alcohol-induced negligence, reduced the restrictions that had been in place to limit the number of non-EU migrants.
