  • “To breastfeed or chestfeed in reaching their goals”

    This shift from following the norms of nature, which is the core of mothering through breastfeeding, to indulging the fantasies of adults, is destroying our organisation.”

    The league was founded by a group of mothers in the US and supports more than 1,000 parents each year in the UK.

    In Main’s resignation note, she spoke of “bullying, lies, and cruelty of recent times” and said that this had been “unreasonably hard to endure”.

    She added: “I hope that the wonderful work of hundreds of women is not lost through mixing causes and politics.”

    Documents produced by LLLGB on transgender and non-binary parents stated that it “supports everyone who wants to breastfeed or chestfeed in reaching their goals”. It said: “We do not discriminate based on sex, gender or gender identity.”

    "…to breastfeed or chestfeed in reaching their goals". Yes, but what goals? Nurturing infants by breastfeeding – or using them as props to validate a new girly identity while getting a sexual thrill from "chestfeeding" a hormone-drenched discharge. There is a difference. 

  • Violent antisemitism & its perpetrators

    "There is no doubt that these people pose a threat to Jews, why are governments not acting?"

    Perhaps the results weren't what they were hoping for…

    The funny thing is despite these results Oslo University Center for counter extremism has opened a special department for right wing extremism

  • Helmets of the Fatherland

    omply with the absurd orders was an indication of the strength of Kremlin propaganda and “another sign of fascism”. Tinfoil hats are typically associated with conspiracy theories and paranoia.

    The teachers were also told to provide photos and videos to prove that they had followed the instructions.

    Some of the teachers posed for photos in the hats next to a portrait of Putin. “Making tinfoil hats is not only an interesting and creative activity but also an important patriotic act, symbolising a readiness to defend one’s homeland from foreign threats,” one teacher said.

  • Teaching kids to hate Israel

    0px”>Parents who watched in alarm as gender theory swept through schools will recognize the sudden, almost religious conversion to this newest ideology. And very few educators are standing against it….

    For instance:

    In another incident, a 12-year-old middle school student at a charter school in San Jose arrived visibly upset on the first school day following the October 7 Hamas massacre. According to a complaint against the school district later filed by her parents in federal district court, the girl had close family members in Israel whose whereabouts were unknown. The girl asked her world history teacher if she could go to the bathroom to collect herself.

    The history classroom “was decorated with maps of the modern Middle East in which Israel was erased.” The history teacher knew the girl was Israeli American because she had identified herself as such at the start of the year during an icebreaker exercise. He told her she could not go “until she read aloud to the entire class a passage he had selected to the effect that in the past, Palestinians and Jews had gotten along,” according to the complaint. “The requirement to publicly espouse a position that was at odds with present reality was overwhelmingly oppressive and humiliating.” She read the passage aloud, as directed.

    The next day at lunch, two female classmates wearing hijabs approached her, according to the complaint, “and demanded ‘What do your people think about the conflict?’ ” When the girl tried to answer, they screamed, “You’re lying—Jews are terrorists.” One demanded: “Do you know that your family in Israel is living on stolen land?”

    A few days later, two boys chased her around the school yelling, “We want you to die.” Kids began to refer to her as “Jew.” They would say, “Hi, Jew” or “Hey Jew.” If she protested, they said they thought it was funny.

    The rest of the kids isolated and ignored her when they weren’t whispering about her, the complaint alleges. She lost all but one friend. Her parents met several times with school faculty; according to the complaint, they did nothing to ensure her safety or improve the girl’s situation.

    Plenty more like that…

  • In Antwerp

    There's a large Orthodox community in Antwerp – the diamond trade etc.. This does not bode well.

  • A religious conflict

    pass by the beheaded bodies of her relatives and raped her the same night. Then he married her and kept her as one of his many wives until he finally died 4 years later.

    The remaining Jewish community and all other non-Muslims among them were forced to pay tributes until they were collectively expelled by Caliph Umar, who ordered the expulsion of all non-Muslims from Arabia after Muhammad's death. Their properties were seized and added to the Islamic Empire's wealth.

    Now, why are Muslims today shouting "Khaybar Khaybar ya Yahud" when they protest against Israel?

    To them, this is a fight between Muslims and Jews, who are considered the enemy until the end time when Muslims will exterminate the Jews, as prophesied and promised by Muhammad. The Israelis today and the Jews of Khaybar are one and the same in their eyes, even when Jews have no idea what Khaybar is. To them, this is a religious conflict that they deceptively depict as a matter of land and rights when they need to appeal to non-Muslim leftist useful idiots.

  • Just more Hamas propaganda

    padding-left: 40px”>The report from the good doctor is grim. Of the 17 bodies his facility received ‘nine’ were women – thus strongly implying this was a random attack that killed women – not terrorists.

    But is there any reason the BBC should not have reproduced the claim of Fadel Naim? Did the BBC do the slightest bit of due diligence on this witness, before sharing his lies to the world?

    The answer is no. They could not have checked at all.

    Unusually for Gazan based witnesses these days, Fadel Naim does not hide his social media behind confusing variations of his name. Search for a ‘Fadel Naim’ in Gaza on Facebook and you quickly find his account.

    When you search his account to see what he was posting on October 7 2023 – it quickly becomes apparent this is not the type of person any of us would recognise as a doctor. His timeline is full of open support for the October 7 atrocities…

    If the BBC journalists had even bothered to look – they would have seen that this man openly supports terrorism and should not be trusted. In the end, it is left to people like me to do their job for them.

    Perhaps Collier is being too generous here. It's entirely plausible that they're fully aware of the politics of this Fadel Naim, but either don't care or are in sympathy with his views.

    From scanning the photos on his own public timeline, it soon becomes apparent that this doctor is no idle supporter of terrorism. This is an image from his daughter’s wedding. The top table at the event included not just Fadel Naim, the BBC ‘witness’ – but also Ismail Haniyeh – the (then) leader of Hamas in Gaza…

    We can conclude that this doctor is closely aligned to the top Hamas leadership – and no western media organisation should be relying on him as a witness. It is kind of obvious anyway. A basic truth completely ignored by western media is that Hamas control Gaza – so if a person has ‘made it in Gaza’ – (for example becoming a director at a hospital) – it is a near certainty that his family is aligned with Hamas.

    Senior BBC reporter Jeremy Bowen has stated that Hamas are a “good” source of information on Gaza casualty figures. It's possible that the noble and worthy BBC reporters find it impossible to believe that people could be so downright rotten and unscrupulous as to lie in the service of their cause – which suggests they should choose another profession. Either that, or they're biased.

  • The Dems and gender identity

    , who said that the word boy was a “slur,” and he “was not going to listen to transphobia at this table.” The moderator, Abby Phillips, also rebuked Singleton, telling him to “talk about this in a way that is respectful.”…

    The tragedy of this subject is that compromise positions are available that would please most voters, and would stop a wider backlash against gender nonconformity that manifests as punitive laws in red states. America is a more open-minded country than its toughest critics believe—the latest research shows that about as many people believe that society has not gone far enough in accepting trans people as think that it has gone too far. Delaware has just elected the first transgender member of Congress, Sarah McBride. But most voters think that biological sex is real, and that it matters in law and policy. Instructing them to believe otherwise, and not to ask any questions, is a doomed strategy. By shedding their most extreme positions, the Democrats will be better placed to defend transgender Americans who want to live their lives in peace.

    As Leor Sapir points out – while acknowledging that this is generally "a good and important piece" – that last paragraph misleads with its talk of "a wider backlash against gender nonconformity":

    …it's a profound mischaracterization to say that there is a "backlash against gender nonconformity" among Republicans and non-progressive voters. Just the opposite is true. The "backlash" is in favor of gender non-conformity, over and against the rigid stereotyping of "gender identity" theory. Boys who like to play with dolls and dance ballet are not "trans girls." They're effeminate–i.e., gender nonconforming–boys.

    This point has been made ad nauseum in the gender culture wars, and I've yet to read a persuasive rebuttal to it. There is no definition of gender identity that isn't either circular or reliant on stereotypes. Typically, it is both. There is no secular ideology more hostile to gender non-conformity in our day than gender identity theory. None.

    This is a key point and any effort to understand where Democrats went wrong and what they need to do to fix it must begin from a correct understanding of what critics of gender identity theory actually think and say.

  • Protecting Islamic values

    Meanwhile, in Libya:

    Libya's interior minister has announced the reintroduction of the morality police to the streets to enforce what he called "society's traditions" and restrict women's freedom of movement.

    On Wednesday, Emad al-Tarabulsi said the patrols would resume next month. They would target people with "strange" haircuts, ensure women wear "modest" clothing and prevent gender mixing in public spaces.

    He also suggested that women would be barred from travelling within the country without a male guardian, adding that those "seeking personal freedom should go to Europe"….

    Since 2011, Libya has seen a decline in religious freedoms in the predominately Muslim country.

    The circulation of non-Islamic religious materials, missionary activity and speech considered “offensive to Muslims” is illegal. In May, the GNU's [Government of National Unity's] General Authority of Endowments and Islamic Affairs established what it called the “Guardians of Virtue” to protect Islamic values.

    Non-Muslims and members of Muslim minority sects have faced persecution from both the state and armed groups in Libya.

    The subjugation of women – Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Libya – does seem to play a very large part in these Islamic values.

    That Islamic Reformation we've all been waiting for…it's just doesn't seem to be happening. Perhaps – just a thought – it's never going to happen. Perhaps the Reformation was specific to the Christian world because of the Christian emphasis on individual conscience – an emphasis that Islam singularly lacks.
