NBC reported that the FBI announced that Christian Sturdivant, 18, of Mint Hill, North Carolina, has been arrested and federally charged with attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization. Justice  Department and partner agencies said Sturdivant was inspired by the Islamic State terrorist group, and planned to attack a grocery store and a Burger King restaurant on New Year’s Eve in Mint Hill, a suburb on the outskirts of Charlotte. Officials said that he was an employee at Burger King, but they did not identify which grocery store they believed he planned to attack. Sturdivant planned to target a wide swath of American society, including non-Muslim people, LGBTQ individuals, and law-enforcement and military personnel.

The Jerusalem Post reported that a pro-Hamas Islamist preacher began a UK speaking tour on Sunday, January 4th despite multiple calls for the government to ban him for his extremism. Dr Shadee Elmasry began his tour in Birmingham, but will head to Bolton on Monday and Ilford on Tuesday. The tour was organized by the Global Relief Trust.

Elmasry was born and raised in New Jersey, US, but has studied in many different Islamic countries, including Morocco, Yemen, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. The Jerusalem Post did a deep dive into his online presence and discovered antisemitic and pro-terror views. Here are some of them:

On 26 November 2023, "even if it was Hamas, it's conceivable and maybe even expected that a legitimate resistance [sic] movement will make condemnable mistakes or go to excesses every once in a while. That doesn't take anything away from the morality of their resistance."

Elmasry then hosted a talk show on November 28, 2023, named 'Exposing Israeli Lies' in which he denied the rapes, beheadings, violence on October 7, and presented the massacre as an Israeli lie.


https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15424281/nurse-attacked-afghan-migrant-injuries.html 

Nurse Meg Lynch, 28, said she was 'nearly beaten to death' while she stood getting a drink from a vending machine. The district nurse, who suffered 'a few blows to the head' with a crowbar before running and hiding from her alleged attacker, told how she was left bloodied and bruised.

A 20-year-old Afghan man allegedly launched the attack after he was refused an appointment, and was arrested at the scene at Newton Community Hospital in Newton-Le-Willows, Merseyside, on suspicion of six counts of wounding, affray and criminal damage. Merseyside Police said he had been detained under the Mental Health Act, and officers would be carrying out high-visibility patrols in the area.

All of the injured are in a stable condition. Their injuries included head lacerations, injuries to their arms and hands, and bruising.

Great Britain News reported that the first small boat of 2026 has made it to UK shores after crossing the Channel in sub-zero temperatures. Around three dozen illegal migrants reached the UK.

MEMRI reported that Egyptian researcher Maher Al-Fargahaly said in an appearance on Sky News Arabia (UAE) that Britain is giving cover to the Muslim Brotherhood, its leadership and its media companies.

FRANCE

https://rmx.news/article/france-4-algerians-caught-burgling-a-family-home-on-christmas-day-but-were-immediately-released-after-they-all-claimed-they-were-16

On Dec. 25, all four Algerian men are alleged to have broken through shutters, the family’s French doors, and entered the house. However, a surveillance camera inside the house detected movement, and the family quickly notified the police. Police caught two of the suspects on scene the other two were arrested at an RER train station nearby.

Once in custody, all four men claimed they were born in 2009 and therefore were all allegedly 16. Since they were illegally in France and had no documents, the claim allowed them to walk free immediately due to their alleged age.

French news outlet Valeurs was skeptical, noting that they all appear much older in the photos, even with blurring. Valuers journalist Amaury Bucco, “To get an idea of the gap between their real age and their claimed age, we showed these photos (unblurred) to the artificial intelligence software ChatGPT, asking it to provide an age range for each of them. Here is its response: for the first suspect (top right), the software gives an age range between 23 and 28 years. For the second: between 27 and 34 years. For the third, between 24 and 30 years. And for the fourth: between 19 and 24 years.”


SPAIN

https://nltimes.nl/2026/01/05/spain-bans-dutch-man-10-years-alleged-ties-jihadist-network 

The Netherland Times reported that a 37-year-old man from Doetinchem has been banned from entering Spain for 10 years. Spanish authorities say the man poses a “real and serious threat to national security” because of alleged ties to a jihadist network from Arnhem. The man denies any involvement in terrorist activities.

A Spanish judge issued the ruling after the man was arrested in July 2023 at a hotel in the Spanish city of Burgos. The man had traveled from the Netherlands to Morocco in the summer of 2023 to visit family and stayed overnight in Burgos while in transit. He was arrested there, and Spanish authorities initiated deportation proceedings the following day.

Authorities had linked the man to the so-called Arnhem terror group, a jihadist-inspired cell dismantled by Dutch police in 2018. The group sent fighters to Syria and allegedly planned attacks in the Netherlands.


SWITZERLAND

https://rmx.news/article/switzerland-afghan-knifeman-who-claimed-to-be-minor-refugee-reclassified-as-adult-in-latest-attempted-case-of-age-exploitation-to-evade-justice 

A ruling by Switzerland’s Federal Administrative Court has confirmed that the Afghan national accused of stabbing a 39-year-old man in Bäckeranlage park in the spring of 2024 was an adult at the time of the attack, despite having claimed to be a minor during his asylum proceedings.

Judges found that the man gave contradictory information during his asylum procedure. When he entered Switzerland, he stated his date of birth as Jan. 1, 2007, which would have made him 17 at the time of the stabbing. This would have meant he would receive a more lenient sentence and could not be deported after serving any juvenile sentence.

However, records from an earlier registration in Greece listed his birth year as 2006. The man said he did not know his exact date of birth and referred to Afghan identity documents, but the court said those documents, based on the Persian calendar, actually supported the conclusion that he was 18 at the time of the crime.

This actually allows Switzerland to debate deportation for the crime.


NETHERLANDS

https://nltimes.nl/2026/01/05/court-rule-father-brothers-accused-honor-killing-teen-woman-ryan-al-najjar 

The Lelystad court ruled on Monday January 5th and sentenced the father and two brothers of 18-year-old Ryan Al Najjar from Joure to prison terms of up to 30 years for her murder in May 2024. Ryan was strangled and drowned in the near by river.

The father, 53-year-old Khaled Al Naj-jar, received the heaviest sentence of 30 years, five years longer than the prosecution had requested. He reportedly played a leading role in the crime and fled to Syria after the murder, where he remains internationally wanted. Ryan’s brothers, Mohamed (23) and Muhanad (25), were each sentenced to 20 years, matching the prosecution’s request.

Al Najjar was reported missing six days before she was found dead. Her death was ruled a drowning. Authorities believe all three were angered that Al Najjar was choosing to live a more Western-influenced lifestyle, daring to have friends who are men, not always wearing a headscarf, and sharing her opinions on social media platforms. The prosecutor said during the trial that “Honor killings are completely unacceptable. This is a form of femicide.”


SWEDEN

https://samnytt.se/goteborg-lat-islamistisk-moske-bedriva-koranskola-i-bibliotekshus

https://www.hstoday.us/subject-matter-areas/counterterrorism/islamists-flee-sweden-after-accused-of-swindling-millions-in-welfare-benefits/ https://europeanconservative.com/articles/news/somali-immigrants-welfare-scams-minnesota-sweden/ 

Expressen  revealed that Islamist leaders are fleeing Sweden after benefiting from over a billion kroner (which is $99,220,426) in government welfare funding while leaving behind SEK 33 million in unpaid tax debts.

Radical networks linked to the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) and the United Muslims of Sweden (SFM) bagged state funding for schools, preschools, and daycare centers.

“It’s like a double loss. The welfare money disappears, and we don’t get the welfare that we have paid for with our tax money,” said Henric Fagher, Chief Prosecutor at the Economic Crimes Authority in Gothenburg. “Someone else steals the money and enriches himself.”

One of the most prominent cases of fraud involves a Gothenburg school that received 462 million kronor in public funding. Somali-Swedish former MP Abdirizik Waberi served as principal and was convicted of siphoning off 12 million kronor (€1.11 million) through fake invoices. According to the report, large sums were sent to Waberi’s Islamist party in Somalia, while other funds were used for private purchases, including Thai sex clubs, political party membership fees, and trips to luxury hotels in Southeast Asia and Kenya.

The owner of another Gothenburg school, which employed former Islamic State terrorists who had returned to Sweden, also stole millions of kronor, transferring the money to Malta before disappearing.


PAKISTAN

https://tribune.com.pk/story/2585080/woman-shot-dead-in-wah-cantt-in-suspected-honour-killing 

Samira Aziz, who had been residing in Qatar with her husband, was brought to Pakistan a week earlier by two uncles under what her sister later alleged was a pretext. On the night of the incident, relatives arrived at the family home  and, acting on instructions delivered via video call from Qatar, allegedly shot her multiple times.

The attackers, identified as Waleed and Asrar, who are close relatives of Aziz’s father, entered the house after her aunt was instructed by phone to open the door. The FIR states that Aziz’s husband, Suleman, then made a video call and directed the aunt to remove Aziz’s sister from the room and “let them finish Samira off”. The two men allegedly drew pistols and opened fire, hitting Samira in various parts of her body. She died at the scene.

The motive, as cited in the police report, stemmed from suspicions by Aziz’s husband, who had allegedly found her speaking on the phone with another man while in Qatar.

A deadly explosion blew up parts of a madrassa at South Keraniganj on Friday morning. Four people including children and women were seriously wounded in the explosion.

Two rooms of the madrassa were totally blown up by the huge explosion. Police force has informed that cocktails, chemicals and materials used for making bombs were found at the school. The institution's name is Um al Qura International Madrassa.

Law enforcement said that bomb squad members were working on deactivating the explosives found at the place where this happened.

The building owner Parveen Begum was shocked and astonished to learn that bomb making kits were found in the madrassa. She urged the law and order forces to immediately unearth what was actually going on inside the madrassa under the veil of Shariah education.

USA 

Nick Shirley exposed a large amount of Somalian fraud in Gov. Tim Walz’s Minnesota. Nick Shirley was invited to the White House, met with President Trump and VP JD Vance. Amazingly most of the Major media outlets did not cover this. Gov. Tim Walz’s administration claimed The Quality Learning (oops Learing) Center, had been closed the week before. BUT a few days after that claim, children were filmed being dropped off then put back in cars.



But there are now other YouTubers out there exposing Somali fraud in the USA.



https://www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/12/man-who-killed-mother-of-his-children-after-portland-activist-group-paid-his-bail-is-sentenced.html 

Oregon Live reported that Mohamed Adan,36, from Somalia, who stabbed and then strangled the life from the mother of his children while out on bail which was paid by a Portland police abolition group has been sentenced to life in prison.

Mohamed Adan will be eligible for parole in 25 years as of Tuesday for the second-degree murder of 36-year-old  (Jamila) Rachael Abraham in 2022.

Jamila — who had two children with Adan and had reported his domestic violence — called into a Multnomah County courtroom in August 2022, begging authorities not to release Adan in a case charging him with violating her no-contact order. He was released and stabbed her multiple times disfiguring and killing her, as she feared that week.

https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/texas-man-charged-providing-bomb-components-and-funding-individuals-he-believed-were 

John Michael Garza, Jr., 21, of Midlothian, Texas, was charged last week by federal complaint with the offense of attempting to provide material support or resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization after he brought various bomb-making materials to a meeting on Monday evening, Dec. 22, and gave them to an individual he believed was an ISIS “brother.” In reality, Garza met with an undercover agent. During the meeting, Garza described how to mix the components and offered to send an instructional video explaining how to build the bomb. Law enforcement agents arrested Garza shortly after he left the meeting.

The investigation started in mid-October 2025, when an undercover New York City Police Department employee noticed a particular social media account — later determined to be Garza’s — that followed several other pro-ISIS accounts and wrote a comment on a pro-ISIS post.

Attorney General Pamela Bondi said, “ISIS’s poisonous ideology must be ripped out root and stem — anyone who tries to commit violence on ISIS’s behalf will be found, arrested, and prosecuted. You cannot hide from us.”

During both of his swearing-in ceremonies, Mamdani put his hand on the Quran, Islam’s holiest book, making him the first mayor in New York City to do so.

At his midnight swearing-in ceremony, he used his grandfather’s Quran and one that belonged to Arturo Schomburg, the Black writer and historian.

For his daytime ceremony at City Hall, he used his grandfather’s and at least one other family Quran.



CANADA

https://globalnews.ca/news/11592707/osman-azizov-refugee-claim-refused-hate-extremism/ 

Global News reported this week that a news story we shared with you last week has new information. Osman Azizov, 19, is an Azerbaijani citizen who, accompanied by his parents, crossed into Canada between official border points near Lacolle, Quebec, in 2017. Immigration records describe how Azizov left Baku, Azerbaijan, with his parents on Feb. 18, 2017, when he was 11 years old. They flew to New York and paid a Brooklyn cab driver $1,500 to take them to the Canadian border.

It gets more interesting, the Immigration and Refugee Board rejected the Azizov family’s asylum claims in 2018, the Refugee Appeal Division denied their appeal, and the Federal Court declined to review the case in 2019. But Azizov was nonetheless living in Toronto when he was arrested in August for allegedly trying to kidnap three women at gunpoint. 

The 19-year-old and his co-accused, Farad Sadaat, 19, and Waleed Khan, 26, face almost 80 charges. Khan has also been charged with terrorism offences that allege he is a supporter of the Islamic State.

Jewish news Service reported that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is facing criticism this week for saying that he was “delighted” at the return to the United Kingdom of Aleh Abd El-Fattah, an Egyptian man, who publicly approved of killing “Zionists,” and who had been imprisoned in Egypt until his pardon in September by President Al-Sissi.

Robert Jenrick, the shadow secretary of state for justice and shadow lord chancellor, sent Starmer a letter on Sunday, criticizing his implied endorsement of Alaa Abd El-Fattah the previous day.

The reason El-Fattah is in the UK, the 44-year-old was convicted in Egypt in 2021 of “spreading fake news” for sharing a Facebook post about torture in the country following a trial that human rights groups said was unfair. He was granted British citizenship in December 2021 through his London-born mother.

The Daily Mail shared that El-Fattah’s sister Mona Seif, who headed a long-running campaign for her brother's release, suggested the murders, rapes and tortures by Hamas led Gazans on October 7th 2023 against Israel was 'understandable' and ‘justified.’ Mona Seif got his pardon, his citizenship in the UK. But both Mona and her brother practice hate speech as Anti-semites.

However, the 25-year-old African should not have been in the country had authorities performed their duty.

According to Le Figaro, the illegal from Mali was previously imprisoned last year for aggravated theft and sexual assault. He was released in July and was issued a deportation order, yet nearly half a year later, has still not been removed from the country.

Following the attack on Friday, an investigation into attempted murder has been opened by the Regional Transport Security Service (SRT), which is reportedly not currently considering terrorism as a motivating factor. The suspect is believed to be “mentally unstable”.

I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and on December 25th it was.

https://x.com/aayoub/status/2003566348081971637 

A billboard that popped up in Times Square proclaiming “Jesus is Palestinian” was slammed by onlookers as an inflammatory and divisive prop that does nothing more than “stir the pot” at Christmas.

The digital ad – funded by the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) in an attempt to spark debate and protest during the bustling festive rush – drew swift backlash from holiday tourists after it appeared in the heart of Midtown last week.

Adeb Ayoub, National Executive Director of the Arab American organization, said the non-profit has been renting ad space in Times Square since earlier this year, with different messages rotating weekly.

He explained that the billboard’s underlying theme is “America First,” with the goal of encouraging people to recognize common ground between Arab and Muslim communities and Christians in the US during the “busiest time in New York City.”

A Kenyan man has been sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison for conspiring to attack Atlanta’s Bank of America building.

Cholo Abdi Abdullah, 34, was sentenced on Monday to two consecutive life sentences after being convicted of several crimes in Nov. 2024. Federal prosecutors say Abdullah is a member of al-Shabaab, a Somalian terrorist organization affiliated with Al Qaeda. They say Abdullah joined the organization in 2015 and spent the next year receiving military training.

From 2017 to 2019, Abdullah trained at a flight school in the Philippines which is an American territory. When he was arrested in July 2019, he had completed all but one of the requirements to receive his commercial pilot license. In January 2019, in the wake of another al-Shabaab attack in Kenya, Abdullah began researching “Delta flights” and “tallest building in Atlanta.”

His searches pointed him to the Bank of America Plaza, which stands 55 stories which is 1,023 feet tall in downtown Atlanta. He admitted to the FBI that he planned to hijack a plane and crash into the building, killing himself and countless others.

Thank God, Cholo has remained in US custody since 2020 to receive his sentence this week.

The Sun reported on December 20th that Muhammad Izhan, a migrant drug dealer was allowed to stay in the UK by an asylum judge — just 24 hours before he admitted sexually assaulting two women.

Muhammad Izhan, 22, was told he could remain on November 11 after winning a mental health appeal against his removal to Pakistan. A day later he pleaded guilty via videolink from jail to groping two terrified women in daylight on a busy high street in Norwich in June. He was fined 200 British pounds which is the equivalent of $270. The Sun revealed that his deportation had been signed off in May 2024 after he was jailed for 30 months for his role in a drug gang. But asylum judge Samina Iqbal ruled in January that Izhan, now 22, who came to the UK when he was seven, had a right to family life in Britain. Thankfully due to his guilty plea he is back in jail until May. Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick said: “Our immigration system is a sick joke on the British people.

Mohammed Ahmed has a long history of assaulting, abusing, and harassing his ex girlfriend and had already served a prison sentence for strangling her. Cardiff Crown Court heard that while the 36-year-old has not always co-operated with probation services in the past, that position has changed and he now has a renewed interest in his Islamic faith.

The court heard about the volatile relationship and the court having granted his ex a restraining order in 2020, an order that he has repeatedly broken.

During the most recent violations of the restraining order Ahmed grabbed the woman and pushed her into the road near the Angel Hotel telling her he hoped she died, while in another he tried to pick her up in a shoulder lift while "demanding that she show him some respect". 

The court heard that the offending was reported to the police and when officers arrived a struggle ensued during which Ahmed struck a policewoman in the face. He had already served 20 months for assaulting his ex girlfriend now he  is sentenced to 21 months. He will serve up to half the sentence in custody before being released on probation.

The Times of Israel reported this week that two men were found guilty on December 23rd, of plotting to kill hundreds in an Islamic State-inspired gun rampage against the Jewish community in England.

Walid Saadaoui, 38, from Tunisia, who married a British woman to be allowed to live in the UK, and Amar Hussein, 52, were Islamic extremists who wanted to use automatic firearms to kill as many Jews as they could. Had their plans come to fruition, it would have resulted in “one of, if not the, deadliest terrorist attack in UK history,” said Assistant Chief Constable Robert Potts, in charge of Counter-Terrorism Policing in northwest England. If their plans had come to completion Bondi Beach would be small in comparison.

The Daily Mail reported some of their court reported conversation as they were plotting: “Walid Saadaoui boasted of his twisted desire to massacre British Jews, saying he wanted to 'run rivers of their impure blood' – with any murdered Christians 'a bonus'.” Walid also said a knife would not be enough to satisfy his lust for what he saw as 'revenge' for Israel's military operations in Gaza.

Bilel Saadaoui, Walid’s brother, denied knowledge of the plot but was found guilty of failing to disclose information about his brother's plans.


FRANCE

A survey from the French Institute of Public Opinion (Ifop) conducted a survey of Muslims living in France. Ifop’s goal was to examine “the influence of political Islamism” in the country, notably through the Muslim Brotherhood, which the French government has accused of engaging in a decades-long campaign to undermine Western civilization.  

According to the survey, 32 per cent of Muslims in France consider Islam to be both a religion and a legal system which should be used to define all aspects of life. A total of 36 per cent said that they believe Western countries suffer from a moral and spiritual decay which can only be remedied by Islam. Even more, 43 per cent, said that they believed it was legitimate to campaign politically to advance Islamic values in Western nations such as France.

Specifically on the issue of Sharia law, 33 per cent of respondents said that they believe it is intended to apply to the entire world. Of those who were in favour of such conquest, 88 per cent said that they would prefer a gradual adoption through education and preaching. However, nine per cent said that they would condone the use of coercion or force to spread Islamic law across the globe.

The Discrimination Ombudsman (DO) has received a report that students feel discriminated against and that it is related to religion or other beliefs," as the high school principal ended Muslim students being allowed to pray in groups on campus.

Previously, the Muslim students had been able to pray in the school's basement during breaks. When that was no longer allowed, ten of them got together in October last year to file a complaint. In this, it is written, among other things, that the students "are no longer allowed to exercise their freedom of religion."

This is due to obstructing school staff from fulfilling obligations and leaving the place they prayed in and the bathrooms a mess after ablutions. Students were also granted permission to leave campus to pray at a local mosque should they desire.

The Discrimination Ombudsman assessed that the purpose of the school's rules, to prevent disruptions in the operation of the campus and to ensure staff and students free access to sports halls and changing rooms, is in itself a protected purpose that is objectively acceptable and thus justified. Therefore the school's rules for the use of premises have not constituted indirect discrimination in this case. Nor has there been a question of direct discrimination.

MEMRI caught an article published on December 17th, days before Christmas , by the Qatari state daily, Al-Sharq, by Ibtisam Aal Sa’d who criticized Muslims who adopt Christian customs and wish Christians a happy holiday. She warned that that these actions, constitute “an absolute sin” that “angers Allah,” adding that smaller sins lead to big ones, and big sins lead to very serious transgressions, “which lead to a bitter end.”

NIGERIA

Adamawa State Governor Ahmadu Fintiri signed the papers pardoning Sunday Jackson on December 24th.

Then many asked an uncomfortable question: Why now?

Jackson, a Christian farmer from northeastern Nigeria, spent nearly ten years in custody; four of them on death row for killing a Fulani terrorist who stabbed him during a confrontation on his farm. Nigerian courts rejected his claim of self-defense, sentencing him to death by hanging in 2021. His final appeal failed in March 2025.

This week, Jackson walked free under a Christmas clemency order.

It is believed that his freedom was granted only because of the hard line President Trump’s policies have taken in respect to Nigeria’s stance against Christians. Rep. Riley Moore called Jackson’s imprisonment incompatible with any serious security partnership, saying one of Nigeria’s “first steps” must be his release.

Shortly afterward, Washington announced new visa restrictions targeting individuals linked to religious freedom abuses. Only after that sequence did Jackson receive clemency.
