So what if a Muslim wins an election in America and becomes a congressman or senator? Why is that any different from a Buddhist winning an election?
Because Buddhism is a religion. Islam is a state.
Islam has a population: the ummah. It has a constitution: Sharia. It has courts, criminal law, family law, taxation, rules for minorities, doctrines of war and peace, and a foreign-policy framework governing relations between the land of Islam and the lands outside it.
The ummah is not tied to Egypt, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, or any other modern country. It crosses all of them.
Islam's population "Muslims" belong to one political-religious community.
That is fundamentally different from Buddhism.
A Buddhist American may practice Buddhism faithfully, but Buddhism does not give him a second universal political order with its own law, sovereignty, territorial doctrine, and theory of government.
Islam does.
This is why reducing Islam to “just another religion” misses the point.
Muslim officeholders are literally citizens of another existing country, and their loyalties can never be American first, because the two projects are contradictory.
Add to that the religious hatred of Jews in Islam and the special relationship between Israel and America.
A Muslim in a position of power in America, with a religious mandate to hate Jews, will not approach Israel from the perspective of what is in America’s best interest, but rather from the perspective of what Islam commands him to do.

🚨Poundland is a scandal. Here’s why:
People have attacked me for taking up this fight, saying ‘businesses go under all the time, that’s just the free market’. Sure, but this is *crony capitalism* and the 12,000 workers deserve better.
This is what’s really happening:
Poundland’s owners, an American outfit called Gordon Brothers are trying to put the business into administration. They bought it for £1 and have a £30m loan out to it, which they want back.
It’s a tough sector, suffering from fierce competition, battered by Labour’s tax increases and customers feeling the pinch. However, the business is solvent, sales grew 6.7% in the last year and 8.4% in the first three weeks of October. It’s about to see the best trading weeks of the year approaching Christmas. This is not a business that has to shut its doors.
What’s more, if Gordon Brothers want to walk away, there are others keen to take it on, as a going concern. I’ve spoken to two, highly credible parties today, who have attempted to buy the business. Both tell me they have the money. One, a hugely successful British retail entrepreneur, didn’t even get a response from Gordon Brothers. They would keep the stores intact and keep the positive momentum going.
I’ve been inundated with messages from staff and suppliers, all saying how hard they’ve worked in the past year to turn the business around.
Instead, Gordon Brothers are risking 12,000 jobs just before Christmas (and retail isn’t an easy industry to get another job in right now) and potentially another 10,000 amongst the suppliers. Poundland has a number of suppliers that only or largely supply them, and who will face an uncertain future without them.
Then there’s the loss to the landlords, the rates owed to local councils, tax due to HMRC and the lost footfall on our high streets if 600 stores shut.
The wage bill of Poundland is close to £500m, so you can imagine the cost to the taxpayer in benefits if 12,000 people lose their jobs.
Could it be that Gordon Brothers, far from being a real ‘turnaround specialist’ is just trying to look after themselves and make a profit at the expense of literally everyone else?
Might they be using the administration process to protect their loan?
And the advisors who handle administration will also pockets millions in fees. Naturally.
Could we see a decent business run down, shelves slowly emptied and then folded, with everyone losing out bar them? Thats what happened with another, similar business, Poundworld.
It’s not for nothing that loyal staff emailing me are calling them ‘Greedy Brothers’.
Should politicians be interested in this scandal? Too right they should. Frankly I’m shocked more aren’t. It shows how little Westminster cares about working people. You can be pro business, but anti crony capitalism. Reform UK is.
The Business Secretary needs to ask searching questions of Gordon Brothers and this administration process, before a 35 year old mainstay of our high streets and 12,000 jobs are destroyed by them.

I lived in Stockholm. I lived in the house of a Holocaust survivor. Six years a prisoner in three different extermination camps. Sweden was a safe haven for many survivors, not everything went well, but it was a home for those who lost everything.
It is with sadness and outrage that I see posters in the shop windows of Stockholm as if we were in the 1930s in Nazi Germany.

🇵🇱 HOE KWAM TUSK WEER AAN DE MACHT?
Polen heeft zowel een president als een premier. De president is het staatshoofd, terwijl de premier de dagelijkse leiding over de regering heeft.
Tusk was voorzitter van de Europese Raad in Brussel – een van de belangrijkste functies binnen de EU. Een riant salaris en veel aanzien. In 2021 keerde hij terug naar Polen om de leiding over zijn oude partij, het Burgerplatform (Civic Platform), weer op zich te nemen.
In oktober 2023 vonden de parlementsverkiezingen plaats. De partij PiS ('Recht en Rechtvaardigheid') behaalde weliswaar de meeste stemmen als individuele partij, maar wist geen meerderheid te behalen. Tusk vormde vervolgens een coalitie van drie partijen: zijn eigen Burgercoalitie, de 'Derde Weg' en 'Links'.
Samen beschikten zij over net genoeg zetels om de macht over te nemen. President Duda moest Tusk daarom de kans geven om een regering te vormen, waardoor hij in december 2023 opnieuw premier werd.
Hoe wist hij te winnen?
Hij won niet in het conservatieve, op het platteland wonende deel van de bevolking, waar veel arbeiders wonen. Zijn winst kwam uit de grote steden – Warschau, Gdańsk, Wrocław – en hij richtte zijn campagne op liberale vrouwen uit de middenklasse en jonge afgestudeerden die zichzelf liever als 'Europeaan' dan als 'Pool' zien.
Polen heeft goed beveiligde grenzen. Het land kent geen grootschalige immigratie en heeft daardoor geen ervaring met de uitdagingen die daarmee gepaard gaan.
Er is geen sprake van immigratie uit landen als Somalië of Afghanistan. De meeste mensen daar hebben nooit te maken gehad met de situaties die wij in Engeland wel hebben gekend. Het is dan ook makkelijk om liberaal te stemmen als je zelf niet met de gevolgen hoeft te leven.
Waarom zou hij een comfortabele baan bij de EU in Brussel opgeven om terug te keren?
Omdat Brussel hem terug wilde in Warschau. De partij PiS vormde een obstakel voor het Europese federalisme. Zij wilden hun eigen munteenheid (de zloty) behouden, hun goudvoorraden in eigen beheer houden, hun grenzen beschermen en zeggenschap over hun eigen rechtspraak behouden. Voor Duitsland en Brussel vormden zij een probleem.
Tusk is hun man in Warschau. Hij werd teruggehaald om de controle over de rechtspraak en het Constitutioneel Tribunaal over te nemen, de grenzen open te stellen en Polen bij de eurozone te voegen.
Dat is de reden van zijn terugkeer. Niet voor Polen – maar voor Brussel.

I’m flawed.
As a human being I try to be aware of what my flaws are, and work on them.
Recently, I’ve become acutely aware of a flaw of mine, that I don’t think I was aware of before.
My flaw, is that I tend to assume people are pretty much the same. And that they’re genuinely good.
When October 7 happened, I believed the world would condemn the massacre, the rapes, the kidnappings.
I believed the world would rally around Israel, calling for the hostages to be released, supporting them in doing whatever was necessary to bring them home.
When Hamas started posting the lies, saying the IDF did it, and there were no rapes, I thought for sure people would see the propaganda for what it was.
I thought people would side with the country that was attacked, and not the vicious terrorists who committed the atrocities.
I figured people would feel for the families who suffered horrific losses and for those whose loved ones were being held by savage terrorists.
I thought the world would take the word of a democratic nation over that of a terrorist organization.
I thought organizations like the UN and the Red Cross and women’s organizations would be there to help and to support the Israelis in the aftermath of Oct 7, and check on the well being of the hostages.
I thought celebrities and people of fame would use their podiums and their voices to speak out against terror and hate, and to demand the hostages be released and Hamas surrenders.
And I thought the humanity of the world would rise above Jew-hatred and racism, to support the people of Israel in their most horrific moment since the Holocaust, after one of the most barbaric massacres in history.
How wrong I was.
How naive of me to think they could stop hating long enough to have compassion.
How naive of me to believe that people have the ability to think critically.
How naive of me to think celebrities would risk their celebrity status to call out for the return of hostages against a rising tide of terrorist supporters.
How naive of me to think that international agencies, which have never cared about Israel in the past, would make checking on Israeli hostages a priority. Or something anywhere on their list.
So yeah. I’m flawed.
Because I keep thinking people are going to be different. I keep expecting people are going to be different.
I don’t expect Hamas to be different. Or Hezbollah. They are what they are. As are the radicalized Islamists who support them.
No. I mean the others.
The people who aren’t radicalized.
The ones who jumped on the Hamas bandwagon because it was “politically correct” or because they were paid to.
Or because they wanted to.
I thought everyone would care about a 9 month old held hostage by a a savage barbaric group of terrorists.
I thought everyone would be able to see through lies and propaganda.
I thought everyone would see the truth. And know which side of history will be the right one.
I thought everyone had humanity and integrity.
That’s my flaw.

🚨London 2026. Full burqa driving the 88 bus to Parliament Hill Fields.
She can barely see the road.
She can barely be identified in an emergency. And she has a double-decker full of strangers whose lives depend on her reaction time.
Passengers don’t get a vote on whether they want a faceless driver. They just have to hope nothing goes wrong.
If your religious practice requires completely covering your face and restricting your vision, you are free to do that in your private life.
You are not free to do it while operating a public vehicle that weighs several tons and carries dozens of people.
This is not “diversity.” This is a safety failure dressed up as tolerance.
And everyone on that bus is paying for it.
