USA vs Iran
The Daily Mail reported that Iran's
supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei said on Monday, 9/28 that the US would be
forced to leave the Middle East after suffering 'painful blows', according to a
statement carried by Iranian state television. This was stated despite Khamenei,
having not been seen in public since the start of the Middle East war in late
February, and the world wondering if he is even alive.
According
to Iran’s state TV, Mojtaba Khamenei said, 'Today, having suffered painful
blows at the hands of valiant fighters and the guardians of the Strait
of Hormuz, they (the enemies) do not venture beyond
the Arabian Sea.'

Associated Press reported that some of the
loudest cheers for Sen. Ted Cruz at the Republicans' recent midterm convention
in Dallas came after the Texas politician targeted Muslim Americans and their
faith's religious code.
"Sharia law has no place in America,"
said Cruz. "We need to stand together and stop it now." Texas Gov.
Greg Abbott chimed in moments later, vowing to "fully ban Sharia law in
Texas."
Among
the most energetic of Sharia's defenders is Illinois-based Sabeel Ahmed,
director of an outreach project called GainPeace.
He travels widely around the U.S., with a recent focus on Texas, speaking at
mosque-sponsored workshops and open houses.
"Sharia
is often misunderstood," Ahmed posted on Instagram after a midsummer visit
to Plano, Texas. "Many people think Sharia is only about punishments, but
in Islam it is Allah's guidance for living with faith, justice, mercy, and
responsibility."
Asma
Uddin, a professor at Michigan State University's College of Law, has argued in
her writings that many American politicians are depicting ordinary Muslim
religious practices — such as prayer, choice of apparel, family counseling
and mosque attendance — as evidence of a political danger.
Sabeel
Ahmed, who has made three outreach trips to Texas so far this year, plans a
trip to Houston in a few weeks for another mosque open-house. He's also working
on a book to be mailed to Christian clergy across the U.S., seeking to broaden
their understanding of Sharia and other Islamic practices. Ahmed said, "Islam
is not to be feared….” People should meet a Muslim, go to the mosque, reach out
to us. Let's emphasize the commonalities we have."
Religion News
Service reported that Islamic
Relief USA, which claims to be a humanitarian organization with a $150 million
annual budget, rebranded itself as the Islamic Development and Empowerment in America, changing
their anacronym to IDEA, after members of Congress threatened to have
its tax-exempt status revoked.
The dispute between four major Islamic charities — all of which had been
independent partners under the Islamic Relief umbrella — came after members of
the House Ways and Means Committee called on
the IRS to revoke the tax-exempt status of Islamic Relief USA, Jewish
Voice for Peace, American Muslims for Palestine and the Tides
Foundation. They alleged that the groups have links to designated foreign
terrorist groups and were “sowing chaos” in their support for pro-Palestinian
protests.
Islamic Relief is part of ISNA. Will the others change their names.
CANADA
On
September 23rd Rebel News reported that Sault Ste. Marie Police say two men are facing kidnapping
charges after Canada Border Services Agency officers caught them attempting to
cross back into Canada with a 15-year-old they had refused to let go.
Police
say 40-year-old Sahan Alam of Sault Ste. Marie and 29-year-old Hasan Al-Mamun
of Sudbury were arrested on September 19 after CBSA officers noticed the
teenager in their vehicle and flagged it as a suspected kidnapping. Officers
were called to the border crossing just after 10:15 p.m. and took both men into
custody.
According
to police, the two men picked up the teen earlier that day and would not allow
the teen to leave the vehicle. While allegedly attempting to drive the teen to
a hotel, the pair made a wrong turn onto the Sault Ste. Marie International
Bridge putting them on a direct path toward the U.S. border, where CBSA
officers intercepted them as they tried to re-enter Canada. Police confirm
neither man is well known to the victim.
Both
Alam and Al-Mamun have been charged with kidnapping and are being held in
custody pending a bail hearing.
Quebec man, 24,
charged in alleged ISIS-inspired chemical weapon plot - Rebel News
Rebel News reported that Louay Angoud, (24) is facing
multiple terrorism-related charges after RCMP arrested him in Montreal on
allegations he was planning an attack on behalf of ISIS.
Police allege Louay Angoud gathered information
on how to build a chemical weapon that could be used to poison Canadians. The
RCMP says there is no indication an attack was imminent, but investigators
believe he had the knowledge to carry one out. He remains in custody and is
scheduled for a bail hearing next week, according to the CBC. None of the
allegations have been proven in court.
Police believe at least one possible accomplice
may still be at large in the Montreal area.
Angoud’s landlord said Angoud's family came
from Tunisia and later returned there, leaving him in Canada as a minor. He
said Angoud attended a Quebec City mosque, became increasingly religious, and
more recently spent much of his time in Montreal.
The landlord said Angoud was seeking to
regularize his immigration status with the help of a lawyer, had twice been
stopped for driving without a licence, and had told him he did not work
on September 11 because he marked the anniversary of the 2001 attacks as a
celebration.

https://www.gbnews.com/news/hamas-bodyguard-asylum-citizenship-uk-terror-attack
GB News
reported that a former Hamas bodyguard was given asylum and citizenship in the
UK before "plotting" a terrorist attack against Jews in Europe. The
bodyguard, who cannot be named for legal reasons, served as protection for
Hamas leader, Ismail Haniyeh, before heading to the UK more than 10 years ago. He
was given refugee status, with it being public knowledge he had worked for
terrorist leader Haniyeh, who had been apprehended in Egypt for operating an
arms and gold smuggling tunnel into Gaza.
The Hamas
bodyguard, after being given sanctuary, worked as an IT consultant in the
suburbs of a large English city, operating under deep cover.
Changing his
name more than once, the married father in his forties, was not thought to have
been a significant person of interest within the British security services,
despite making connections with Hamas operatives in Europe.
He faces
extradition to Germany this week, where he is accused of leading a
plot to attack Jewish community centres, pro-Israel demonstrations and
Israeli diplomats last October. The terrorist planned the attack on the
anniversary of the October 7 massacre.
Mossad and Germany's security and intelligence services learnt of the plot, notifying the National Crime Agency who arrested the former bodyguard in central London last November.
BELGIUM
Jewish News
Syndicate reported the head of Belgium’s Coordination
Unit for Threat Analysis (CUTA) said that Iran was behind
a bombing outside a synagogue in Liège and an arson attack in Antwerp’s Jewish
quarter in March.
Gert
Vercauteren told RTBF last Thursday that the perpetrators “certainly”
acted on Tehran’s orders. He said the attacks on Jewish sites were part of a
coordinated campaign, rather than isolated incidents.
Because we did
not report on this before, here is what happened, a explosive device was set
off outside the Synagogue de Liège shortly before
4 a.m. on March 9. That same week, a car was torched in Antwerp‘s Jewish
quarter. No one was hurt in either attack.
The Belgian
attacks coincided with a string of plots in the Netherlands, including a foiled
bombing of a synagogue in Heemstede, a small town
roughly 12 miles west of Amsterdam. A main suspect in the terror network was
recently arrested in Turkey. Belgian security services have recorded no attacks
since.
Israeli
Ambassador to Belgium and Luxembourg David Saranga called on European nations to
change their policies toward Iran “to reflect the threat Tehran poses on
Europe’s own streets. In another post on X Ambassador Saranga said
sarcastically, “I’m surprised. Iran directing terror attacks against Jewish
sites in Belgium? Who could have imagined.”
GERMANY
Remix News reported that German authorities
have frozen €5.9 million ($6.5 million) in assets of an operator of a
fast-growing intensive-care nursing service. She is now in custody over
allegations that the company billed public health insurers for services that
were never fully rendered or were performed by unqualified staff, causing an
estimated €11 million in damage.
Zeynep C., 39, a Turkish national who rose from
supermarket work to run White Angels Intensive Care, was arrested Sept.
17 during coordinated raids. The case is making major headlines, due to the
luxury lifestyle she was living.
Her 44-year-old German husband was also
detained. Both remain in pretrial custody. Thirteen people ages 20 to 54 — of
Turkish, Moroccan, Egyptian and German nationality, some with dual citizenship
— are also under investigation.
Seized items included several luxury vehicles registered as company cars — a Maybach, Mercedes-AMG models and a purple Lamborghini — plus €51,000 in cash, jewelry valued at €265,000, gold worth about €10,000, designer handbags and watches totaling more than €150,000 and Mortgages of properties totaling €3.3 million.
SWEDEN
https://samnytt.se/mahmud-valdtog-tonarsflicka-i-kopcentrum-slipper-fangelse
Samnytt reported that It was on January 13th of
this year that 15-year-old Fadal Abbas Mahmud Mali had arranged to meet a
15-year-old girl to walk around town. They later met up with a third man and
went together to the local shopping center where Fadal sexually assaulted the
girl. Security guards interrupted the assault and Fadal attempted to flee but
failed.
Because it was stated that he has an intellectual
disability and he is 15 Fadal will likely only receive a sentence of 6
months of youth probation.
https://samnytt.se/terrorforskaren-varnar-svenska-kyrkan-legitimerar-islamism
Samnytt reported that Magnus Norell a political
scientist, author and one of Sweden's most prominent researchers on Islamic
movements in the Middle East and Europe, with particular focus on the Muslim
Brotherhood, jihadist environments, has found a connection with the Church of
Sweden continuing its collaboration with Islamic Relief.
Last year the Swedish government donated 1.4
billion kronor to Islamic Relief Sweden. That was ended in early 2026 due
to its connections with the Muslim Brotherhood and thus Hamas.
At the same time, the Church of Sweden chooses to continue its relationship with Islamic Relief Sweden. Collaboration and religious dialogue continue in joint contexts that include Islamic Relief, despite the state's withdrawal.
NETHERLANDS
Remix News
reported that an 18-year-old woman was gang raped and beaten, many of them with
a Syrian background, in the Dutch city of Dordrecht. Although the rape occurred
in May 2025, the suspects are only now being arrested. In response to the rape,
political leader Geert Wilders wrote that the Netherlands also has Islamic
grooming gangs and called for all the perpetrators to be removed from the
country along with their families.
Six suspects
out of ten have now been arrested, who range in ages from 20 to 23. The girl, was
likely targeted because she lived at a group home. Police say the woman was
humiliated and beaten.
“A bruise on
the cheek, a tooth through the lip and a swelling on the knee,” described one
source.

On Tuesday, the Co-pilot from Oman, of a flydubai Boeing 737 stabbed the Pilot of a plane flying
from the United Arab Emirates to Israel and the packed passenger plane in “a

the fearless
passengers on board
for subduing the
alleged attacker
and saving the lives of the passengers, which included 27 children.
Katz also stated
“The grave incident on the flydubai plane was a jihadist terrorist attack

passengers who broke into the cockpit, overpowered the terrorist and, with
their own hands, restored control of the plane to another flight crew who was
present there.”
AUSTRALIA
In a media
release posted to X on Monday, under the headline "Labor's
inaction is enabling radical Islamic terrorism", the One Nation leader
accused the Australian Government of looking the other way on terrorist
recruitment and advocacy. "The first duty of government is to protect
Australians. Labor is failing at this duty," Senator Hanson said.
Her statement
came hours after news reports on a preacher known as Abu Ahmad, described as
"a young and increasingly popular imam from Melbourne's southeast".
He preaches through the Al Bayyinah Islamic Centre, founded at Springvale in
2024, which has reportedly had the backing of Sydney imam Wissam Haddad. They
both encourage violence and are creative in how they endorse jihad.
