We’ve written before about North Korea’s nuclear assistance to both Iran and Syria, providing expertise in planning and building some extremely suspicious sites.

Now it appears that, thanks to the blundering UN and the ineffectual threats of ’sanctions’ from the talking heads of the ‘international community’, Mahmoud and the Mullahs have finally, with further willing help from the lunatic régime of Pyongyang, spun their Taqiyya lies into reality – and brought the Middle East to the nuclear brink; both in terms of production of fissile material and now, it appears, delivery systems:

Iran is building a new rocket launch site a short distance from an existing complex and seems to be working with North Korea, information group IHS Jane’s said Friday.
Construction visible from satellite imagery of the new site, near the city of Semnan east of Tehran, suggests that Iran has been collaborating with Pyongyang, said the London-based defence intelligence group.

Iran unveiled the Simorgh (Phoenix) space-launch vehicle (SLV) on February 3 but has not publicly revealed the location of the rocket’s launch complex, it reported. Read the rest of this entry »

The far-left know all too well that the old adage ‘catch ‘em young’ is particularly applicable to marketing Jew hatred dressed up as ‘anti-Zionism’ to impressionable students, as their annual ‘Israeli Apartheid Week’ propaganda exercise gears up:

LONDON – A filmmaker, anthropologist and economic researcher are among those headlining events marking what pro-Palestinian organisers have declared as “Israeli Apartheid Week” – and all three speakers are Israeli.

University campuses in more than 40 cities around the world are marking the week with lectures, films, multimedia events, cultural performances and demonstrations.

Since they were first launched in 2005, the events have become some of “the most important global events in the Palestine solidarity calendar,” according to its organisers. Read the rest of this entry »

How a group of radical, West-hating and terror-supporting Islamists have infiltrated Britain’s Labour party and may be poised to stage an anti-democratic takeover in a major £1 billion-spend local authority in London.

Channel 4’s Dispatches documentary, ‘Britain’s Islamic Republic’, lifts the lid on Muslim political and electoral corruption – a recurring theme in large Muslim areas in Britain and elsewhere.

Continuing the Telegraph’s excellent recent work in uncovering the infiltration of the ever-credulous British Establishment by Islamic radicals and terror supporters, we discover that even the people we trust to protect us from them are hiring them to ‘help’:

Sir Ian Blair [Former Metropolitan Police Commissioner] signed a formal agreement with an Islamic extremist to treat him as the Metropolitan Police’s “principal” representative of the Muslim community, it can be disclosed. The activist, Azad Ali, was accepted by the Met as a trusted interlocutor. The force also agreed to give him information on forthcoming anti-terror raids. – Mr Ali has previously justified the killing of British troops in Iraq, believes al Qaeda is a “myth,” and has praised a key mentor of Osama bin Laden.

Mr Ali signed the deal, a copy of which has been seen by the Daily Telegraph, in his capacity as the then chairman of the Muslim Safety Forum – a body closely linked to the fundamentalist Islamic Forum of Europe (IFE). Read the rest of this entry »

The Islamic Forum of Europe (IFE) — which believes in jihad and sharia law, and wants to turn Britain and Europe into an Islamic state — has placed sympathisers in elected office and claims, correctly, to be able to achieve “mass mobilisation” of voters.
Speaking to The Sunday Telegraph, Jim Fitzpatrick, the Environment Minister, said the IFE had become, in effect, a secret party within Labour and other political parties.

“They are acting almost as an entryist organisation, placing people within the political parties, recruiting members to those political parties, trying to get individuals selected and elected so they can exercise political influence and power, whether it’s at local government level or national level,” he said.

“They are completely at odds with Labour’s programme, with our support for secularism.” Read the rest of this entry »

Threats and harassment are becoming increasingly commonplace for Jewish residents in Malmö in southern Sweden, leading many Jews to leave the city out of fear for their safety.

“Threats against Jews have increased steadily in Malmö in recent years and many young Jewish families are choosing to leave the city,” Fredrik Sieradzki of the Jewish Community of Malmö (Judiska Församlingen i Malmö) told The Local.

“Many feel that the community and local politicians have shown a lack of understanding for how the city’s Jewish residents have been marginalised.”

Last year there were 79 crimes against Jewish residents reported to the police in Malmö, roughly double the number reported in 2008, according to the Skånska Dagbladet newspaper. Read the rest of this entry »

From NIS News Agency in the Netherlands. Nothing says ‘We Surrender’ like a cash-stuffed envelope:

Gouda local council has given criminal Moroccan teenagers money to stop causing trouble. “We wanted to prevent matters from escalating further,” said the council yesterday.

Some dozens of young Moroccans waylaid and robbed passers-by in December. They were ‘bought off’ by the municipality to keep them off the street around New Year’s Eve. They received a combined 2,250 euros, shoved into an envelope, to organise a party, De Telegraaf reported yesterday.

Gouda has confirmed that it paid the troublemakers. “We wanted to prevent maters from escalating further. The youngsters themselves had presented a budget for the party. They had to say how much money they needed for hiring a disc-jockey, a bite to eat and drinks. For us, it was important that it should be quiet in the district around the turn of the year.”

According to the council, it had to act quickly. “Although the money was handed over in cash, it was well-spent. Everyone was happy afterwards. We also gave five Moroccans a gift voucher for a book shop afterwards as a thank-you,” says a spokeswoman.

Utterly shameful. The Netherlands is on the same slippery slope as Britain – it pillories and persecutes the one man who would stop this cowardly, supine behaviour – Geert Wilders – yet rolls over to pander to Islamic thugs.

The proxy Jihad unrest over housing in East Jerusalem we touched on briefly last summer shows no signs of letting up. As the report below from today’s Jerusalem Post shows, tensions are still high; and riots and fighting are almost daily occurrences.

But what you probably don’t know is who’s pulling the strings. And, as the recent (and unsurprisingly completely slanted) video from the BBC’s Panorama programme above illustrates, it’s extremely unlikely you’d get to find out if you relied on the mainstream media:

The Shuafat refugee camp was the scene of renewed rioting on Tuesday, a day after clashes between young Palestinian residents and security forces in the sprawling east Jerusalem neighbourhood left four police officers and a border policeman lightly injured.

No injuries were reported by police on Tuesday afternoon. However, nine Palestinians were arrested for throwing rocks at security forces during the renewed clashes, bringing the total number of arrests in Shuafat over the past two days to 34. Read the rest of this entry »

A remarkable turn of events in the world of humanitarian charity – and a lesson in how the Left works:

A SENIOR official at Amnesty International has accused the charity of putting the human rights of Al-Qaeda terror suspects above those of their victims.

Gita Sahgal, head of the gender unit at Amnesty’s international secretariat, believes that collaborating with Moazzam Begg, a former British inmate at Guantanamo Bay, “fundamentally damages” the organisation’s reputation.

In an email sent to Amnesty’s top bosses, she suggests the charity has mistakenly allied itself with Begg and his “jihadi” group, Cageprisoners, out of fear of being branded racist and Islamophobic. Read the rest of this entry »

Once again, Pat Condell eloquently voices what everyone else is thinking. Or would be thinking, if this trial weren’t being ignored by much of the European mainstream media.
