Small town mayor beaten up for plan to house refugees – The Local “Brown Shirts” on cowardly march again

On the same day as the attack against Kebschull, he and the town hall had received two threatening letters, one which stated “He who does not want to hear will have to feel” and “Oersdorf for the Oersdorfers”.Due to the continued threats, six police officers have been stationed in front of the town hall, but the mayor had parked his car out of sight from the officers, which police said “the attacker took advantage of”.

Abbas… a disgrace to people

نادية حرحش

Call me radical. Call me fundamentalist. Call me a warmonger.

I actually don’t care. If being pacific, a peacemaker means walking in the funeral of a man whose hands will forever remain stained with Palestinian victims blood. A man whose Palestinian diaspora and expulsion has been largely manifested by his contribution. A man whom because of his orchestrating of a Zionist Israel we Palestinian will continue to live under the rubbles of a dream of a state.

Well Peres is dead, and hopefully he is now handled within the hands of real justice.

What is really damn frustrating, the Palestinian so called president who rushed to the funeral with his convoy of amateurs.

I admit I am furious, my language will be as furious as my state of mind. It is not the anger on a man who died. I have no problem with Israel and the world mourning him.

Iceland: northern lights replace street lights in Reykjavik | World news | The Guardian

Street lighting in Reykjavik has been switched off for an hour to give residents of the Icelandic capital a better view of the aurora borealis.Most parts of the world’s northernmost capital city, including the centre, went dark from 10pm on Wednesday.“Residents are invited to join in by turning out the lights at home so as to maximise the darkness and minimise light pollution,” the local government said in a statement.The aurora borealis, or northern lights, are multicoloured natural illuminations caused by interactions between solar winds and the Earth’s magnetic field.Posts on social media showed the colourful lights filling the night sky above the city.

By ‘saying nothing’ on his birther lie, Donald Trump re-embraces the deplorables: Brent Larkin | cleveland.com

And by saying nothing, Donald Trump said everything.By saying nothing, he confirmed what any thoughtful person has known for months — that his campaign for president is really about racism.Unfair trade deals, tax cuts, job creation, phony chants of change? They’re all accessories.The real message of Trump’s campaign — the one that appeals to all the extremists and haters who help fill his gigantic basket of deplorables — is raw racism.There’s nothing the least bit complicated about Trump’s message, an unmentioned promise so powerful it’s capable of moving his supporters to violence. It goes like this: I’ll keep the blacks in their place and kick the Mexicans and Muslims out. Together, we’ll make America white again.But he won’t.Because he can’t.Top elected officials in Ohio, from Sen. Rob Portman on down, should be ashamed of themselves for openly supporting such a repugnant human being.It is profoundly disappointing that Republican members of Congress and four holders of Ohio statewide offices silently condone Trump’s unique brand of hate and racism. History will treat only Gov. John Kasich kindly on this issue.
