German Taliban special forces chief caught in raid by Afghan forces

He was seized in a raid in ­Helmand province, now a Taliban stronghold. Photographs showed a man in his forties, with a reddish beard, wearing traditional ­Afghan dress under a khaki ­military jacket and topped with a black turban.

He gave his name as Abdul Wadood and is believed to be a military adviser to Mullah Nasir, the local commander of the Red Unit. The elite force is handpicked from the insurgents’ best fighters, trained to carry out commando-style raids and granted the best Western equipment looted from Afghan forces.

Omar Zwak, a spokesman for the governor’s office, said the German had been taken to Kandahar for “further investigation”.

Foreigners from Pakistan, Arab states and central Asia are common among the Pashtun tribesmen of the Taliban but it is rare for citizens of Western ­nations to be accepted by the ­Islamists, still less so for them to rise so high within the group. One, John Walker Lindh, known as the “American Taliban”, was captured in Afghanistan and ­jailed for 20 years in 2002.

Rumours have persisted for months of Islamic State fighters from the Middle East drifting into Afghanistan to join the local franchise of ISIS. However, ­observers are sceptical European Islamists would see the country as fertile new ground, especially with the US subjecting the ISIS stronghold of Nangarhar province to heavy bombing.

Taliban Red Units have emerged in several parts of the country in recent months. Equipped with night-vision goggles and laser-targeting weapons, they have launched a series of raids on local troops, killing dozens.

President Ashraf Ghani unveiled a framework for peace with the Taliban this week, ­including recognising the insurgents as a political party if they join negotiations.

African teenagers spit on and wrestle with police in Melbourne’s west

Police officers were spat at and three African teenagers arrested in violent confrontations outside a Melbourne shopping centre on Wednesday afternoon, as mounting community tensions boiled over in the city’s west.

In the latest flare up involving African teens, up to 20 officers rushed to Tarneit Central after a dispute began near a mobile police van about 3pm.

The van had been placed at the shopping centre as part of a high visibility operation in the suburb where police have been trying to calm community fears about African youths.

Never mind China and Iran. The greatest threat to free speech on the Internet may be the European Union:

Google, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and other internet companies must show the European Union within three months that they are removing extremist content more rapidly or face legislation forcing them to do so.

• The word ‘extremist’ has lost all meaning

“Extremist content” means content that the left-liberal bureauweenies who run the European Union don’t like. That could include Islamic State recruiting videos, but it could also include common sense commentary from people like Pat Condell.

“While several platforms have been removing more illegal content than ever before … we still need to react faster against terrorist propaganda and other illegal content which is a serious threat to our citizens’ security, safety and fundamental rights,” Digital Commissioner Andrus Ansip said in Thursday’s statement.

Given the Orwellian nature of the EU, demands to censor content so as to secure “fundamental rights” are ominous.

Euroweenies want “hate speech” removed within 1 hour of notification. That doesn’t leave much time to distinguish content that poses an actual physical threat (e.g., ISIS bomb-making tutorials) from opinions that some bureaucrat doesn’t find sufficiently left-wing.

This is very serious:

The controversial activist Tommy Robinson has been suspended from Twitter for quoting research which found that nearly 90 per cent of convicted grooming gang members in the UK are Muslim.

A personal message & a warning from Tommy.

Mr. Robinson was suspended from the social media platform for 7 days for stating the findings of the Quilliam Foundation think tank, whose founder worked as an adviser to Prime Minister David Cameron on issues around Islam.

“90% of grooming gang convictions are Muslims,” Mr. Robinson wrote in a tweet on February 25th, rounding up the number identified by the Quilliam research, which found that 84 per cent of convicted groomers were Muslim in December last year.

Twitter decided the statement of fact “violated the Twitter rules” and “temporarily limited some of your account features”, which included tweeting publicly on the website – effectively censoring him for a week.

Africa = Sh*thole.
Wakanda = Imaginary sh*thole.

Over the past few weeks I’ve been bemused by the irrational and ever so slightly over-the-top glorification of marvel’s Black Panther movie as being somehow emblematic of a real-life black power movement, of speaking truth to power, and all sorts of bizarre leftist meta-narratives about race, history, colonisation, slavery, you name it and the media has embraced it.

A great example follows below – the fictional Wakanda serving as a woke version of #resistance in the US perhaps?

Will ‘Black Panther’ change the face of US politics?

I likely won’t see the movie, as I’m completely sick of over-hyped Hollywood dross and virtue signalling dressed up as entertainment, but even for the liberal media, the amount of kowtowing and hyperventilating that’s circulated over this “perfect black superhero movie for the 21st century” is nothing short of extraordinary.

But that’s not the story; the real narrative here is the one wherein the media is legitimately talking about the fictional nation of Wakanda in the movie as somehow being representative of what Africa could have been, if somehow the legacy of European colonisation could be erased. Naturally, to the utterly deluded mind of liberal Hollywood and the media that remora-like feeds off the verbal bollocks that they utter, this appears perfectly legitimate, given they’ve been fed a decades-long diet of such academic rigour as African American Studies and other such postmodern flim-flam. It’s almost like the history of inter-tribal violence and enslavement between warring African tribes, the centuries old Barbary slave trade and other such historical details such as black slave catchers can be neatly white-washed from history – Europeans are solely responsible for the African continent’s current sorry state.

James DeWolf Perry makes the inconvenient truth very clear here.

But now, the liberal disease is spreading to the real life issue of land confiscation in South Africa, and the shear insanity and stupidity on display on social media leaves my blood boiling.
