Soros urges EU to cut funding for Hungary, make country a ‘test case’

Progressive billionaire George Soros has called on the EU to cut funding to Hungary over rule of law issues, with his statement released following a decision made by the EU’s top court which favored George Soros’s Central European University over the Hungarian government.

“I call on the EU to make Hungary a test case,” Soros wrote in a statement, urging Brussels to make an example out of Hungary, including attempts to tie EU funding to rule of law conditions. 

Near the end of the statement, the liberal billionaire investor urged the European Union, which at the moment is debating on whether or not to make the distribution of EU aid linked to so-called ‘rule of law’ conditions, to cut its funding to Hungary.

For the liberal billionaire, setting such a precedent would send a clear message to other EU nations: those who refuse to obey Brussels’ edicts will face real consequences. 

In a statement, Soros claimed that “the Hungarian government continues to trample on EU Law”, adding that its latest victim was “the world-famous University of Theater and Arts (SZFE)” in Budapest, Hungarian newspaper Magyar Hirlap reports.

Soros’s sentiments were echoed nearly verbatim late week by the Deputy Head of the European Parliament, Katarina Barley – also a German MP for the Socialist Democratic Party (SDP) – when she urged the EU to “starve” Poland and Hungary of EU funds, Remix News reported.

“The rule of law is constantly broken and EU funds are an efficient way to exact pressure. States such as Poland and Hungary must be financially starved. Funds are an efficient lever,” Barley said during an interview with German radio.

Following the German MEP’s statements, several Polish politicians were quick to hit back, saying that the use of word “starvation” – in the context of Polish-German relations – reminded them rhetoric used by Nazis during World War II.

“This statement is outrageous and reminds us of the most dreadful historic connotations. We could say that Germans have ample experience in starving and persecuting Poles. We are awaiting an official apology from Mrs. Barley and the retraction of these shameful words,” Michał Dworczyk, the chief of the Prime Minister’s Chancellery, wrote.

On Tuesday, Poland’s ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party called on Katarina Barley to resign from her post as the Deputy Head of the European Parliament as a result of the offensive statements that she made on German radio, Remix News reported.

The motion was presented by PiS, a member of the European Conservatives and Reformists EU parliamentary group, at Tuesday’s meeting of the European Parliament presidency.

Olympics refuses to discuss Iranian regime’s murder of wrestler

The agenda for Wednesday’s International Olympic Committee executive board meeting omits the Iranian regime’s execution of the champion wrestler Navid Afkari, prompting calls for IOC president Thomas Bach to include Afkari’s execution in its agenda and sanction the clerical regime in Tehran.When asked by The Jerusalem Post if the IOC plans to sanction Iran’s regime and raise Afkari in its agenda, an unnamed committee spokesperson said that, “For your information, you will find here the schedule for tomorrow’s IOC Executive Board committee’s meeting.”

The IOC schedule sent to the Post omitted Afkari.Rob Koehler, the Director General of Global Athlete, a sports human rights advocacy organization, wrote on Twitter: “The Olympics Executive Committee meets Wednesday 7 October… How about under miscellaneous you include: 1. Suspending Iran @Olympic_ir #Justice4Navid #navidafkarai.”Koehler included the Twitter handle for Iran’s Olympic chapter and the hashtags in support of Navid Afkari.The international outcry over the IOC and Bach’s failure to include Afkari in its agenda on Wednesday sparked former Olympic Iranian wrestler Hossein Khosrow Ali Vaziri, known as The Iron Sheik, to tweet to his over 518,000 followers on Tuesday: “AS FORMER OLYMPIC WRESTLER I DEMAND THE THOMAS BACH IOC PRESIDENT OF THE @Olympic@iocmedia YOU INCLUDE THE CASE OF THE IRANIAN REGIME MURDER OF INNOCENT CHAMPION THE NAVID AFKARI FOR TOMORROW AGENDA AND SANCTION IRAN”S REGIME.”

The Iron Sheik, who is a world-famous retired professional wrestler, issued a second tweet: „IOC PRESIDENT THOMAS BACH @Olympics @iocmedia YOU NEED TO HELP ME TEACH THE WORLD ABOUT THE IRAN SANCTION ON THE CHAMPION WRESTLER NAVID AFKARI.”

The Iranian journalist and women’s rights activist Masih Alinejad tweeted: “Dear athletes of Iran & the world! Break your silence. 2 of Navid Afkari’s brothers are in jail. Their mother is in pain. Torture, Forced confessions & executions. Enough is enough. This apartheid regime must be judged in the Court of justice [and] not be invited to sports tournaments.”
THE NATIONAL Union for Democracy in Iran (NUFDI) issued a letter to the IOC urging Bach to sanction Iran’s regime, citing two precedents: The IOC sanctioned the racist South African regime during the apartheid period, as well as Afghanistan when the country was controlled by the radical Islamic terrorist movement, the Taliban.“The Islamic Republic of Iran is as racist as the Apartheid regime and as misogynistic as the Taliban,“ NUFDI wrote.NUFDI added that „the IOC has nonetheless refused to take any tangible steps to punish this regime. It is still standing by the oppressors, and against the people of Iran. The IOC must add the discussion of banning the Islamic Republic in Iran from the Olympics to its agenda.“The Iranian-American human rights advocate and writer Mariam Memarsadeghi tweeted: “A champion wrestler–hero–was executed because he dared protest for a better life. This is an absolute violation of the Olympic Charter. If @iocmedia @Olympics doesn’t consider this worthy [of] its attention, exactly what is its mandate & why does the Charter even exist? #NavidAfkari.”The IOC condemned the September 12 Iranian regime execution of Afkari but said it did not wish to violate the sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran by sanctioning the regime over it.
In response to a Post query about the German Green Party’s alleged appeasement toward the Iranian regime, Rabbi Abraham Cooper, associate dean of the Los Angeles-based human rights organization Simon Wiesenthal Center, said that „Green Parties should be helping expand the growing circle of peace between Arabs and Jews, not abetting would be genociders [sic] like Ayatollah Khamenei – especially Germans. Not too late to urge snapback against ruthless Iranian regime that executes its own innocent citizens.“Green Party foreign policy spokesman and MP Omid Nouripour, who has been accused of supporting the reportedly antisemitic Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign against Israel, refused to respond about the whether the IOC should sanction Tehran’s regime.Volker Beck, a former Green Party MP, refused to urge his party to call on the IOC to sanction Iran’s clerical regime. Cooper’s criticism included Beck’s alleged silence about his party’s alleged pro-Iranian regime policies.US State Department officials have declared Iran’s regime the top state-sponsor of terrorism and antisemitism.

Antifa attack on family: Father of IB supporter suffers head trauma

A supporter of the Identitarian Movement (IB) in Konstanz has been the target of a left-wing extremist attack. But his family suffered the consequences instead.

“My stepfather suffered a head injury and the facade of the house is damaged,” Dominik B told Berlin weekly Junge Freiheit on Monday, describing the extent of the attack.

The 26-year-old used to be an active IB member and, among other things, took part in an information campaign. Antifa noted on the information portal Indymedia that he heads the IB local branch in Konstanz. But that’s not true, said Dominik B.

Around 60 hooded Antifas marched through the streets of Konstanz to his parents’ house on Sunday afternoon. They carried a red banner with the inscription “Counter the shift to the right – organized, consistent, determined”. The 26-year-old reported that he was not at home at the time.

The attack on his family’s row house began around 3:30 pm. The rioters had thrown numerous eggs and bags of red paint against the yellow house facade and filled the mailbox with construction foam. In addition, the words “Nazi” were sprayed on the entrance area in front of the house. Photos of the extent of the attack has been taken, but for the protection of the family’s privacy they cannot be published.

The target’s stepfather faced the anti-fascist mob, which then attacked him. The attackers hit the 49-year-old man in the head. Meanwhile, one of the masked people is said to have tried to snatch his mobile phone from him. When more and more residents got involved, the left-wing extremists fled.

“The neighbors reacted well and shouted to the masked people to leave,” said the young man. The criminal police are investigating the case.

The stepfather had to be treated because of the head injury and was taken to hospital due to head trauma and bruises.

A family with four young children were among the residents. The children were extremely shocked by the attack. In addition, the Antifa is said to have left “outing posters” in the neighborhood, on which they described Dominik B as an “active neo-Nazi” and disclosed his address.

Environmentalism is anti-biblical and anti-humanist civilizational suicide

by Giulio Meotti

It was 1969 when the leader of the British Labor parliamentary group, Douglas Houghton, called for state intervention to discourage births by reducing assistance and subsidies for large families, while Lord Sorensen declared: “We must encourage sterilizations”.Meanwhile, Paul Ehrlich, a Stanford University biologist and author of “The population bomb”, predicted poverty and famine for England at a symposium at the London Institute of Biology: “If I were a player, I would bet that England will no longer exist in the year 2000 and ten to one that the standard of living of the average Englishman will be below the current one”.Fifty years past 1969, life expectancy in England has increased by ten years and the standard of living has undergone a radical upward transformation. Yet, the idea that population decreasing action is needed to reduce environmental impact is still at the root of all the green anthropophobic cries, including the eco-fascism of the two bombers in Christchurch, New Zealand and in El Paso, Texas.

Now billboards are appearing in many North American cities, from Vancouver to Minneapolis, at bus stops as well as along highways. A smiling child watches the commuters. And below, the announcement says: “The greatest loving gift you can give to your first child is not having another one”. It is part of a series of advertisements (another says that “conservation begins at conception”) financed by the World Population Balance, an ecological organization in the United States. Dave Gardner, the director, says he supports an “ethical, humanitarian and voluntary” solution to overpopulation. And it is propaganda that works.

A Morning Consult poll for the New York Times shows that one-third of men and women between the ages of 20 and 45 cite climate change as a factor in their decision to have children or not. The Morning Consult data also finds that 11 percent of childless adults say climate change is the “main reason” they didn’t want it.

“Congestion begins at conception” announces another manifesto for an eco-sustainable one-child. Traffic and fire images are used. The message is clear: have children and you will increase the queues on the streets and the risk of natural disasters. The “child free” section, on the other hand, is seductive: young couples without children, hugging, kissing, enjoying outings.

The proponents say they are in favor of a “drastic and voluntary reduction in births”. And if that doesn’t work, biologist Ehrlich always has the next step ready. Taxing baby products (“cribs, diapers, games, baby food”), flooding schools with sex education, making access to abortion even easier and Chinese-style sterilization campaigns with implants, mandatory there for Ughur women, that prevent births.

Current environmentalism, which is based on an anti-Biblical and post-humanist vision, is pure civilizational suicide. Birth rates are already falling all over the West, Canada, Europe, America. The West is not overpopulated at all. But environmentalists are fine with that. They are pro mass immigration from Africa, where birth rates are surging and which is coming to Europe.

They don’t dream of an empty planet, but of a post-Western one. Where the Statue of Liberty is submerged on the beach.

139 migrant minors arrive in Germany, but government refuses to provide their age and gender

Last week, 139 migrants from Greece arrived in Germany, but the Federal Ministry of the Interior refuses to release data about their ages, nationality and gender despite a press request for that information. 

The interior ministry did send press release with the title: “Another flight with sick children and unaccompanied minors from Greece landed in Hanover.” In addition to the 51 unaccompanied minors, there were 17 sick children and their core families. What is less clear is the age, gender and nationality of those 51 unaccompanied migrant minors.

With underage and unaccompanied asylum seekers costing around €5,000 per month just for accommodation and the German state planning to spend €64.5 billion on migrants over the next four years, some German taxpayers are curious about where their money is going, prompting the German news outlet Junge Freiheit to request the Federal Ministry of the Interior release gender, age, and nationality information. 

The short answer form the ministry stated that “for reasons of data protection law, we cannot provide any details about the people who arrived in Hanover today’.

The question of what migrants’ gender has been in the public interest since April at the latest. At that time, the federal government announced that it would be able to fly in seriously ill or unaccompanied immigrants under the age of 14, and they would be primarily girls. 

However, in the end, only four of the 47 migrants were girls. Even in Chancellor Angela Merkel’s CDU party felt some resentment over the issue.

Lower Saxony’s social secretary Heiger Scholz said that the group of minors housed by his state consists of two girls and nine boys from Afghanistan and Pakistan, according to the DPA news agency. Photos show that the proportion of girls was also very low overall.

“The first of a total of 150 migrants from Moria that Germany wants to take in have arrived at Hanover Airport, with 51 unaccompanied young refugees being distributed to several federal states,” wrote public broadcaster ZDF on Twitter.

A BBC report found that an astounding 84 percent of underage migrant minors in Sweden were actually adults, while other studies showed that 73 percent were actually adults in Belgium, and at least 40 percent were actually adults in Germany.

This month, a migrant from Pakistan who committed an Islamic terrorist attack targeting the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine was discovered to have lied about his age in order to receive benefits from the French state, including protection from deportation. After his arrest, he confessed to being 25 instead of the 18 he first told authorities when he illegally entered France in 2018. 

There are also concerns in Germany that the country is not just accepting unaccompanied minors, such as those that were brought to Germany from Greece last week, but may also be on the hook to accept more migrants due to chain migration. The new EU Asylum and Migration Pact proposed by the European Commission refers to an expanded concept of family chain migration, just one of a number of controversial clauses of the new pact. Debates on the pact are expected to be difficult since several countries, such as Hungary, Poland, and Austria, have already announced they are unlikely to adopt it. 

If the pact is adopted, not only would parents and underage children be brought together in Germany, as has been the case before, but also those people who have an adult sibling in Germany. As the CDU migration expert Thorsten Frei recently warned, Germany would be particularly hit with more than 800,000 protected titles granted for new arrivals.

This number of migrants arriving in Germany is unlikely to decrease as Germany has already promised to take in several thousand migrants from the Greek refugee camps.
