The crime took place only a few hundred yards from Alex’s police station.Again and again violence breaks out in the crime-ridden place. In the night from Friday to Friday a fight ended under the television tower with a fatal stabbing. Several Syrian citizens clashed in the Panorama Street. One of the men (22 years old) is said to have aimed a 23-year-old man at close range with a alarm gun. When he fired, the 23-year-old is said to have flipped out. He had pulled a knife and stabbed the armed opponent and his 21-year-old companion. The knife attack left both men with several stab and cut injuries.

The older one collapsed covered in blood and lost consciousness. Alerted rescue workers resuscitated him for about an hour. But the 22-year-old had lost too much blood. He died in the ambulance. The 21-year-old was taken to a hospital for emergency surgery. He survived with severe injuries.

A homicide squad took over the investigation.Alexanderplatz is one of a total of ten places in Berlin with a high crime rate. There are regular brawls, stabbings, robberies and pickpocketing.

A group of migrants who used a government “holiday bonus” to travel to the beach in the town of Alassio were arrested after robbing tourists.

The seven migrants, all aged from 18 to 22 and originally from North Africa and the Ivory Coast, are said to have targetted children. They stole mobile phones, money, and credit cards. The gang is said to live in Turin and came to the seaside town using money provided to them by the government.

According to police, many of the migrants already had criminal histories involving assaults and robberies. Investigators say the gang assaulted their victims by kneeing them in the stomach before beating and robbing them. Police had found stolen goods in the migrants’ hotel rooms, Il Giornale reports.

According to the newspaper, at least four of the victims had to seek hospital treatment for their injuries. Local police described the incidents as being reminiscent of the film A Clockwork Orange.

Police confirmed the gang was behind three robberies. They are currently investigating the migrants’ possible connection to another two thefts in the area. Investigations have also been launched to determine if the gang struck other municipalities in the nearby area, as well.

Migrant crime continues to be a major issue across many parts of Italy. A 2018 report claimed as many as one in three crimes involve suspects from foreign backgrounds despite the migrant population of Italy making up just eight per cent of the overall population.

Nigerian mafia gangs have been at the forefront of foreign criminal gang activity in Italy in recent years, particularly relating to forced prostitution and illegal drug trafficking.

In 2018, it was reported that Nigerian migrant gangs have almost totally taken over the former tourist seaside town of Castel Volturno.

The asylum seekers who have immigrated since 2015 are significantly less well integrated into the labour market than the foreigners who have lived here before. According to current figures published by the Federal Employment Agency (BA), 53 percent of all employable asylum seekers receive unemployment benefit II (Hartz IV). That is currently about 629,000 persons, reports the monthly magazine Tichys Einblick based on current BA figures. Most recipients of unemployment benefits, namely 58 percent, are Syrians with about 367,000 persons. The Hartz IV rate among Syrians is 70 percent, far surpassing all other immigrant groups with asylum status.

According to official BA figures, only 128,000 of the current 790,000 Syrians in Germany are employed subject to social security contributions. In relation to the group of employable Syrians between 15 and 65 years of age, this corresponds to an employment rate of 24 percent according to the BA. This is the worst rate of all migrant groups. Experts suspect that this might have something to do with the special position of the Syrians, who are the only ones with a secure residence status in Germany.

According to the BA, the unemployment rate is also very high among Iraqis at 50 percent, followed by Eritreans (45 percent), Afghans (44 percent) and Iranians (30 percent). “This is significantly below the rate of 80 to 85 percent for foreigners who have previously lived here,” says economist Bernd Raffelhüschen. “The situation will get even worse because many migrants work in precarious jobs – for example in the restaurant industry or in the taxi business,” the economist comments in Tichy’s Einblick.Refugees are employed where low-skilled workers are needed.”But these are precisely the industries that are making massive layoffs in times of corona recession. That’s why the government’s statements at the time that we’ll manage the integration of this unregulated immigration sound like a mockery to me.” The politicians made a complete error. “All those fine orators of yesteryear must now shamefully remain silent. They were simply wrong. “A 50 percent employment rate is not integration.”

Racial ideology has hit the racing tracks, but Formula 1 drivers are far from enthusiastic. The Monaco driver Charles Leclerc is under fire from critics, but Carlos Sainz is also exasperated. He believes that kneeling has nothing “to do with being racist or not”.

Their opposition had already been noticed in the BLM movement. Now it is Carlos Sainz who firmly opposes the influence of racial politics after pressures suffered by Charles Leclerc, who refused to kneel before the start of the Grand Prix. The Spanish driver highlighted the absurdity of these pressures and denounced the treatment of the Leclerc on social networks.

According to Nextgen-Auto, the Spanish driver is furious about the campaign waged against Charles Leclerc. On Thursday, he dissociated these pressures from the real fight against racism: “What does kneeling have to do with being racist or not? It’s a simple gesture, it doesn’t change anything. It’s now more about who kneels, rather than who is against racism.”

For Carlos Sainz, the bad buzz around Charles Leclerc highlights “the pressure under which F1 drivers find themselves in the media, and the way in which people are confused about what is racist and what is who is not”. He then told Nextgen-Auto his desire was to “stop talking about it and turn the page”.

Charles Leclerc reacted to the controversy he sparked on social networks by refusing to kneel. During a press conference on August 6 at Silverstone, the racing driver said that his position should be considered “apolitical”, before underlining the absurdity of these pressures: “I am quite active on social networks and I do not accept being called names that I have been called in recent weeks, in a negative way, because I do not kneel.”

Charles Leclerc nevertheless had to clarify this point on Twitter: “It’s very sad how some people manipulate what I say to make headlines and make it look like I’m a racist. I am not a racist, I absolutely hate racism and racism is disgusting.”

A 73-year-old man was tied up and beaten by home invaders who raped his wife, aged 46, and daughters, aged 15 and 11, in Muldersdrift, South Africa.

The attack, which took place at a farm, according to the Pretoria East Rekord, citing a report in the Krugersdorp News, is believed to have been perpetrated by an armed gang who were also involved in incidents at Zwartkop, Nooitgedacht, and Beyers Naudé, and are still at large.

“They demanded money and, when they could not find it, they assaulted him, searched him and took his cellphone. The suspects took the victim’s wife, 46, and his daughters, aged 15 and 11, to another room and raped them,” said police spokesman Constable Boitumelo Sehloho, in comments quoted by News24.

“These crimes are committed by three to six suspects armed with handguns. In all reported incidents, the suspects forcefully gained entry into victims’ homes. In some house robberies, victims were sexually assaulted,” Sehloho said.

“Members of the community are urged to be vigilant and tighten their home security before and not after the fact and to be alert in their homes between 19:00 and 04:00 and also to report any suspicious movement,” he added.

The issue of attacks on South African farms is long-running and highly contentious, with some reports claiming farming in the country is the most deadly occupation in the world outside of active warfighting, and others claiming farm attacks are actually falling.

The AfriForum civil rights group has disputed efforts to downplay the scale of the attacks, however, saying that the official statistics are significantly undercounting them and emphasising their often extreme brutality, with victims sometimes being tortured with implements including blowtorches and power drills.

The African National Congress (ANC) party which governs South Africa, and is currently targeting farms for expropriation without compensation — in response to political pressure from the rising Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party led by Marxist-Leninist radical Julius Malema, according to many commentators — refuses to accept that farmers are particularly at risk, or that there is any racial animus behind the farm attacks phenomenon.

The debate gained wider prominence when U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted that he had tasked Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to “closely study the South Africa land and farm seizures and expropriations and the large scale killing of farmers” in 2018.

As the Lebanese people struggle to recover from the catastrophic deaths and destruction wrought by the Beirut explosion, more questions than answers continue to arise. The official story, that in 2013, Lebanese port officials impounded a Moldovan flagged ship bound for Mozambique, laden with explosive chemicals, does not address other facts which have emerged and must be investigated:

1.         Sections of the Beirut port are under the control of the Hezbollah terrorist organization. Israeli officials have long complained that the Beirut port, “the Hezbollah Port” was being utilized by the terrorists to smuggle contraband and weapons into Lebanon. As UN Ambassador Danny Danon recently stated: “Israel discovered that Iran and its Quds Force have been exploiting civilian maritime channels, and specifically the Port of Beirut.”

2.         Hezbollah has a long history of illegally acquiring and stockpiling ammonium nitrate in civilian areas. In 2015, Britain’s M15 and Metro Police carried out a raid on a secret Hezbollah warehouse in London that contained 3 tons of ammonium nitrate. The British government shamefully covered-up the raid in order not to damage relations with Iran shortly after signing the dangerous Nuclear Deal. It is believed Hezbollah was planning on using the chemicals for an attack in the UK.

3.         The same year, police in Cyprus discovered a Hezbollah warehouse storing 8.3 tons of ammonium nitrate. A Hezbollah operative was arrested and charged with planning a terror attack. “A state prosecutor said Lebanese-Canadian Hussein Bassam Abdallah admitted that Hezbollah aimed to mount terrorist attacks against Israeli interests in Cyprus using the ammonium nitrate that he had been ordered to guard at the Larnaca home of another official of the Iranian-backed group.”

4.         Israeli intelligence gave German police information, earlier this year, of the location of a Hezbollah stockpile of ammonium nitrate in southern Germany. The fact that the Iranian terror group was warehousing the explosives on German soil helped to push Berlin to outlaw all wings of the Hezbollah organization.  “Mossad reportedly gave Germany information about warehouses in the south of the country where Hezbollah stashed hundreds of kilograms of ammonium nitrate, a material used to make explosives.” 

5.         Hezbollah has a long history and deliberate strategy of stockpiling rockets, weapons and explosives in civilian areas. Hezbollah intentionally utilizes civilian neighborhoods including the basements of schools, mosques, residential buildings and hospitals as missile depots. The terrorists understand that the Israeli air force would be hindered in responding to rockets launched from civilian centers during the next war with Lebanon. And if Israel does attack the launchers and kills civilians, Hezbollah is counting on the UN, the Europeans and the ICC to immediately accuse Israel of war crimes. Hezbollah calls it this “Human Shield” program.

6.         In 2016, Hezbollah’s chief terrorist Hassan Nasrallah had threatened to fire rockets at an ammonia storage facility in Haifa. He vowed that the explosion would be like a nuclear bomb striking Israel. He repeated this threat on several occasions causing Israeli officials to remove the storage tanks. “Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah threatened in the past to destroy Israel by causing a massive explosion in the port of Haifa using ammonia tanks that he said would be like a “nuclear” explosion. In addition Hezbollah allegedly sought to acquire ammonium nitrate via Syria since 2009 and tried to infiltrate the agriculture ministry in Lebanon to do so, according to leaked diplomatic cables.”

7.         On Valentine’s Day in 2005, a team of Hezbollah terrorists murdered then Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri with a powerful bomb in Beirut. 21 people were killed in the massive explosion. Hariri was a strong opponent of the Hezbollah group and the regime of  Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad that was attempting to control Lebanon. Four Hezbollah assassins are being tried in absentia by a UN court for the murder. Ironically, after 15 years of stalling, the UN’s Special Tribunal for Lebanon, hearing the Hariri case will deliver its decision on Friday. Its believed the Special Tribunal will declare Hezbollah as responsible for the bombing attack. 

Hezbollah’s long involvement in attempting to procure and stockpile ammonium nitrate perpetuates the growing suspicions that the Iranian terrorist organization, which rules Lebanon, was directly involved in the warehousing of the chemicals at the Beirut port. When the Lebanese population will finish dealing with the devastation and mourning its dead and wounded the finger-pointing at Hezbollah’s role in the tragedy will begin in earnest. The Special Tribunal for Lebanon whose verdict in the Hariri assassination trial will further emphasize Hezbollah’s guilt. Hezbollah and its Iranian masters, the key source of Middle East instability, must be driven out of Lebanon.
