TAYLOR SWIFT & ARIANA GRANDE

TAYLOR SWIFT CONCERTS UNDER THREAT

9 August 2024

            Taylor Swift has cancelled three concerts in Vienna, Austria after an Islamic terrorist attack plot was uncovered by authorities. In Vienna, two suspects were arrested on Wednesday, 7 July 2024. One of the perpetrators homes was searched and various chemicals were discovered. The authorities discovered that the terrorists were planning to target Swift’s concerts at the Vienna stadium. Swift will be increasing security at all her concerts from now on and hopefully from now on all will be safe.

            It was only July 2024 when three young Taylor Swift fans were at a dance party, and were murdered in northwest England. The perpetrator was a male teenager 17, who intended to kill as many children as possible. His family came to England from Rwanda in 2002 and even though he had murdered and harmed innocent people the authorities are protecting his identity, still to this day his photo hasn’t been released.

            On 22 May 2017, 22 innocent people were killed in an Islamic terrorist attack at an Ariana Grande concert in England. The two perpetrators intended to target children and had injured over a thousand people. At the inquest it was found that more should have been done by British police to stop the attack and that the authorities acted ‘too slowly’. Grande had to cancel concerts concerned for her fan’s safety. Many of the deceased were aged under 20; one was aged 8.

            It’s very sad that terrorists are now targeting teenagers and children, in places where they go just to have fun and they should be safe.

It's been seven years since the Manchester Arena bombings.

Our thoughts are with the survivors and families of the victims on this painful day.

[professional-sinner]

I went to see Ghost last night in Manchester (I know some of my mutual are also fans) and ohhhhhh my god. Holy shit. The set list: perfection.

The staging: also perfection

Obvs I don't have pictures because it was phones free but I honestly don't care because I could actually see the entire time!

[copia]

for people who don't know: in 2017, there were bombs set off at the ao arena in manchester (where ghost just played) during an ariana grande show, which killed 22 people. i was too slow in the moment to realise that papa cheerfully asking manchester ao arena if we liked things that go boom (then giving us five big booms) was a rough one

ashamed to say that i didn't realise the problem with "do you like things that go boom" in manchester until yesterday's queue. rip to five big booms you were fun but coincidentally extremely inappropriate in the wrong kind of way

What's your evidence that Joost Klein harassed Eden at ESC? I've only seen evidence of Joost being harassed by Israeli delegation. And he was an assholeish idiot at the press conference but he wasn't the worst. And can people pleaaase stop spreading the smear campaign the EBU put out about him. He made a rude gesture, that's it.

Hi,

I'm gonna admit that if you saw the Dutch performer's behavior at the press conference, IDK how that doesn't constitute harassment? I mean, the part where he didn't like that the ESC organizers made him sit next to the Israeli singer, and he didn't want to be in the same frame with her, so he covered himself with the Dutch flag wasn't just being an asshole, he was publicly humiliating her, transmitting to everyone what a pariah she is, not based on anything she's said and done, but simply based on her nationality (and this little stunt was obviously going to attract attention, meaning he minded being photographed next to her, but he didn't mind being photographed covered up with the flag like that in the same frame with her, making it clear this wasn't him wanting to avoid political stuff).

In my book, that's bad enough, but then he added insult to injury. Eden was asked a disgusting question by a Polish journalist. He wanted to know whether she considered that she would be putting everyone else at ESC at risk (victim blaming much? Eden was the target of a violent mob besieging her hotel room, and turning her participation into an event requiring security. She didn't ask them to do this, she didn't force them to, she's a 20 year old girl, who has dreamt of representing her country at ESC for years, and when she finally gets to, she's being asked to carry the blame for the violence aimed at her due to her nationality... Imagine asking Ariana Grande after her Manchester Arena performance if she took into account that she was risking the lives of all of her fans, because an Islamist decided to use her event for a terrorist bombing that killed 22 young people, and would she never perform again, now that she was aware of the risk? No, that didn't happen, because it's a disgusting, victim blaming, terrorism-rewarding question). The panel host rightfully grasped that this was a political and harassing question, and told her she didn't have to answer it. Joost Klein then shouting at that, "Why not?" was harassment. He was piling up on the victim blaming, on top of showing zero empathy for a fellow performer targeted for her nationality, in a way he never would have agreed to be himself.

(I think that's last assessment is obvious since we now know he thought, even for a split second, that it was okay to threaten with fists a female camerawoman working for ESC, doing her job, filming the performers when they got off stage after their performances. This was done to the other performers as well, IDK what made Klein think his consent was needed in that moment, since to me it seems implied by agree to represent the Netherlands at ESC, but even if he had the right to refused being filmed, I have no idea what made him believe it was okay to use violent threats against an ESC employee).

I'd like to ask you where did you see "evidence" that Klein was harassed by the Israeli delegation? As far as I'm aware, there was only one vid trying to make that claim, and what was seen in that one, was an Israeli journalist (so, not a part of the performing team), working as a European correspondent (he also covered the war in Ukraine, to give you an idea of what that job entails, so he's a "respectable" journalist, not just a guy with a mic interviewing people for his ESC blog), called Dov Gil-Har (as far as I know, he's aligned with the left politically, so not exactly someone likely to be harassing people out of nationalistic sentiments), who was trying to ask Klein questions. Which... the last time I checked is his duty as a journalist. And Klein refused to answer Gil-Har's questions, which is his prerogative (though I do think it was pretty disgusting when some performers, like the Norwegian ones, refused to give interviews to any Israeli media outlets. Since it's based on nationality, it's once again hateful IMO), but then the Dutch team's manager (or whatever he was) really got in Gil-Har's face, and more than that, because I clearly heard Dov saying, "Don't touch me." Keep in mind, this was after Klein's shameful behavior at the press conference, and also after he missed a rehearsal that day, there were rumors circling around it somehow had something to do with Israel, so it is honestly the most natural thing for Gil-Har as a journalist, that he wanted to ask the Dutch team some questions. That should not have ended with him having to say, "Don't touch me," but to further misconstrue this as him harassing the Dutch team...!? WHAT?

It feels like another instance of DARVO, where the attacker/harasser/abuser shifts the fire away by reversing who was doing the harassment and who was being harassed. Everything we saw on camera was harassment of the Israelis, including even the media, while I've not seen one documentation on film of the Israelis harassing others. Plus, I heard the claim that the Israeli team was harassing everyone, yet we know that some performers didn't feel, act or express themselves that way.

All prison officers should be issued with stab vests after a knife attack in jail by the Manchester Arena bomb plotter, a former officer has said.

Claire Lewis, 50, who suffered a similar assault, started a petition calling for the change.

She was left with life-threatening injuries after a 2010 attack at HMP Frankland in Co Durham and has been unable to work since.

At the same prison last month, the brother of the Manchester suicide bomber assaulted three officers.

Hashem Abedi stabbed the guards with two home-made knives and sprayed them with hot oil. They were taken to hospital, with one suffering life-threatening injuries.

More than 29,000 people have since signed Ms Lewis’s petition on Change.org, in which she writes that all officers should be equipped with anti-stab and anti-slash garments.

The Prison Officers’ Association has made the same demand and Shabana Mahmood, the Justice Secretary, has ordered a rapid review to consider whether it should be introduced.

Ms Lewis, from Sunderland, said the news of Abedi’s attack “broke her heart” and “brought everything back” from when she was injured 15 years ago.

“It’s incredible that this has happened 15 years on and that the staff do not have the protection they should have,” she said.

“You have police officers, counter-terrorism officers, when they go and arrest people, they have ballistic vests, they have Tasers, they have extendable batons. When we walk into that prison we have a uniform and an extendable baton.”

According to data from the Ministry for Justice (MoJ), the number of assaults on staff in adult prisons in England and Wales per year is at its highest in a decade.

Some 10,605 assaults on staff in male and female jails were recorded in 2024, up from 9,204 in 2023 and almost three times the total of 3,640 in 2014.

Ms Lewis was 35 when she was attacked by Kevan Thakrar, who is serving a life sentence for murder and attempted murder, on March 13 2010.

She described how Thakrar attacked her and her colleague with a broken bottle of hot pepper sauce after they approached his cell.

“My colleague and I went to the cell door. I opened the cell door. He pulled the cell door back in an instant, and he lunged at my colleague,” she said.

“I saw him stab him and then he turned to me and said, ‘I’m gonna f------ kill you.’ So I ran for my life.

“I ran and he chased us and chased us. Then he stabbed me in the back. I slipped and then he stabbed me in the back and then I kept running. Then he said: ‘I’ll finish it.’”

Neuropathic nerve damage

Ms Lewis sustained neuropathic nerve damage to her back from the attack and still has a large scar. She damaged both of her knees and has had patella replacement surgery. She takes daily medication for pain relief and for her mental health.

“The time I was there [at HMP Frankland], I thoroughly enjoyed it and it absolutely broke my heart when I lost my career after what happened to me,” she said.

“The whole petition, it’s not about me. It’s about the other staff that have been recently attacked. This cannot go on because someone will end up dead.”

In response to the rise in attacks, the Justice Secretary announced the use of Tasers would be trialled in prisons and confirmed the prison service would conduct a “snap review” of the use of protective body armour for prison officers.

Prisoners in separation units in high-security prisons have been barred from kitchens.

Abedi is thought to have fashioned his knives from a stolen baking tray or oven grill and was cooking with boiling butter which he threw over the officers. He has been transferred to the high-security Belmarsh prison in south London.

An MoJ spokesman said: “We will do whatever we can to protect our hard-working staff. The Lord Chancellor has announced a review into protective body armour and a trial of Tasers in jails to better respond to serious incidents.

“But it is clear fundamental change is needed, which is why we’re also reforming our jails so they create better citizens, not better criminals.”

Imagine Alison having a conversation with Humphrey and Mary about their lives. Humphrey and Mary unintentionally make degrading comments about Catholics as they say that they were always troublemakers/plotters/terrorists (Humphrey was unintentionally involved of his wife’s Catholic plot to overthrow Elizabeth I and Mary was alive for the gunpowder plot which involve Catholic terrorists). During the conversation, Alison realises that the same rhetoric is being used to degrade Muslims today (judging by her age, she would be alive for 9/11 as well as the 7/7 and Manchester Arena bombings which were done by Muslim terrorists).

As usual, the state propagandists at The Guardian—who evidently despise investigative journalism—have produced standard government PR spin to promote the emerging UK dictatorship. In this case, off the back of the appalling injustice committed at Richard D. Hall’s trial, The Guardian is supporting a proposed law which, if enacted, will destroy the independent media.

The envisaged “Eve’s Law”—nominally advocated by Martin Hibbert, the claimant in Hall’s kangaroo court hearing—presents no threat to The Guardian. It will censor only independent investigative journalists who question power. The subject is of no concern to The Guardian, a bastion of the legacy media.

The Guardian’s stated mission is to “change the world” and “build hope.” The essential duty of the news media—namely, to act as a public check on the branches of government—was long ago abandoned by the legacy media and is now anathema to them. The legacy media unquestioningly serves the public-private partnership we call “the state.” Certainly, The Guardian is no exception.

The alleged Manchester Arena bombing occurred on 22nd May 2017. Although nearly eight years have passed, the incident is viewed by the UK government as the most important UK “terrorist attack” of the 21st century. It is the event the UK state continues to exploit to supposedly justify some of its most dictatorial legislation. Widespread public belief in the Manchester story remains crucial to government plans.

When it comes to audience engagement for Harry Styles… again, no notes. He had a dedicated segment of the show where he took a moment to appreciate the signs people were holding up, which led to some conversations about birthdays, upcoming weddings and even naming babies after him (the expectant mother was due to give birth on the day of the show, to which Harry questioned whether being at the show was a “good idea” before offering to bring her water, a chair or a blanket).

He also played his latest single ‘Satellite’, as well as ‘Late Night Talking’ and ‘Fine Line’. A poignant moment came during ‘Sign of the Times’ when fans had arranged pink and red lights to be shone during the song as a tribute to the victims of the Manchester Arena bombing in 2017. Harry commented on the “beautiful” display.

A brilliant show and one not to be missed if you enjoy pop music as Harry Styles’ show is a masterclass in how it’s done.

Shamima Begum has lost her latest bid to overturn the government’s decision to strip her of British citizenship, the Court of Appeal has ruled.

Ms Begum left the UK aged 15 with two other east London schoolgirls to travel to Syria in February 2015.

Last year, she lost a challenge against the decision at the Special Immigration Appeals Commission (SIAC).

Here are the key developments to date:

August 1999: Shamima Begum is born in England to parents of Bangladeshi heritage.

February 2015: British counter-terrorism police launched an international hunt to find three London schoolgirls who were making their way to the so-called Islamic State’s (Isis) territory in Syria.

Ms Begum, 15, had slipped out of her house in east London, with friends, Kadiza Sultant, 16 and Amira Abase. They caught a flight to Istanbul, Turkey and travelled to the Syrian border from there.

In late February, the Metropolitan police confirm that Begum and her friends had reached Syria. Ten days after arriving in the country, Shamima Begum marries Yago Riedijk, a Dutch-born convert to Islam and a convicted terrorist.

October 2017: A US-backed alliance of Syrian fighters takes full control of Raqqa, ending three years of Isis rule in the city.

13 February 2019: The Times’ war correspondent Anthony Loyd finds Ms Begum, then 19-years-old, at the al-Hawl refugee camp in Northern Syria. A pregnant Ms Begum tells him that she wants to return to the UK to raise her child but that she did not regret her decision to join Isis. She says that she had had two other children who died of malnutrition.

She says she had been unfazed by seeing the head of a beheaded man as he was an “enemy of Islam” but believes that Isis did not deserve victory.

Three days later, Ms Begum gives birth to a baby boy.

19 February 2019: The UK government serves notice that it intends to strip Ms Begum of her British citizenship.

The then-Home Secretary, Sajid Javid, writes to Ms Begum’s parents to inform them of his order to strip her citizenship. He believes that, because her parents are of Bangladeshi heritage, she can apply for citizenship of that country.

The law allows the government to remove citizenship if they can show the person behaved “in a manner which is seriously prejudicial to the vital interests of the UK” and when there is “reasonable grounds for believing that the person is able, under the law of a country or territory outside the UK, to become a national of such a country or territory.”

24 February 2019: Ms Begum’s father, Ahmed Ali, speaks to The Mail on Sunday and says that he “doesn’t have a problem” with his daughter’s British citizenship being removed.

Speaking from his home in Bangladesh, he said: “If she at least admitted she made a mistake then I would feel sorry for her and other people would feel sorry for her, but she does not accept her wrong.”

16 July 2020: The Court of Appeal rules that Ms Begum should be permitted to return to the UK in order to fairly contest the British government’s decision to revoke her citizenship. This ruling was appealed and sent to the Supreme Court.

26 February 2021: On February 26, the Supreme Court ruled unanimously against bringing Ms Begum back, thus reversing the previous decision.

15 September 2021: Ms Begum asks the British people for forgiveness in an interview with ITV. The now-22-year-old says that Isis’s killing of innocent people is “unjustifiable”.

She apologised for comments she had previously made to a BBC journalist about the Manchester Arena bombing. In 2019, she had claimed - when asked about the 2017 attack - that it was wrong to kill innocent people, but that Isis considered it justified as retaliation for coalition bombing of Isis-held areas.

She told ITV: “I do not believe that one evil justifies another evil. I don’t think that women and children should be killed for other people’s motives and for other people’s agendas.”

November 2022

Before the Special Immigration Appeals Commission (SIAC), Ms Begum’s counsel said: “Without seeking to investigate and determine, still less consider, whether she was a child victim of trafficking and whether there were failures by public authorities in the UK to prevent her being trafficked.”

January 2023

In the BBC podcast series, she said she understood public anger towards her but insisted she was not a “bad person”.

She said she accepted she was viewed “as a danger, as a risk”, but blamed her portrayal in the media.

February 22, 2023

Ms Begum lost her appeal in a SIAC court to overturn the government’s decision to strip her of her British citizenship.

October 2023

Ms Begum’s appeal against the loss of her British citizenship began in the Court of Appeal.

Begum’s team of barristers claim she was a victim of Isis propaganda and was groomed into terrorism.

Samantha Knights KC told the court the government had failed to consider the legal duties owed to Ms Begum as a potential victim of trafficking or as a result of “state failures” in her case.

February 2024

Three judges dismissed Ms Begum‘s bid at the Court of Appeal.

Giving the ruling, Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr said: “It could be argued the decision in Ms Begum‘s case was harsh. It could also be argued that Ms Begum is the author of her own misfortune.

“But it is not for this court to agree or disagree with either point of view. Our only task is to assess whether the deprivation decision was unlawful.

Muslim Woman says Britishness needs to Return - Askin the most Muslim pl...

A great example of how many issues can need to be tackled at the same time.

As our host ‘Shay’ said at the start, freedom of religion is important to the British People. We’ve had periods of brutal religious persecution during our history, and we don’t want a repetition of it.

Yes. The Church of England is the ‘official’ religion. But that does NOT mean that no one can practice any other Faith. 

We have many Catholics and other Christian Denominations. We have Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, Jews, Buddhists, Pagans. All free to practice, without risk of being punished for it by the state.

All that’s required is that we practice in keeping with The Law. And that’s fine by me. The Law is one of the things that unites us as British Citizens, regardless of religious and cultural differences.

Katherine Birbalsingh Dr Rakib Ehsan and others talk about Multiculturalism this way too. 

People are free to practice their own faith and culture. But we should all be united by being British Citizens.

And if you’re living here, but don’t want to be a ‘British Citizen’, then one has to wonder what you’re doing here at all.

Shay talks here about a gentleman who came here from India wanting a ‘different life’. But was shocked that our country didn’t look like he was expecting.

We hear a Muslim lady talking about ‘British Values’ needing to return, because the country has changed so much.

Dammit. I’m disgusted to hear about the rise of Anti Muslim Hate since 9/11. That’s an outrage!

Have disagreements and concerns with any religion? Then a British Citizen should be free to express them. 

BUT hating, harassing and abusing people, simply for practicing any particular religion? No, No, No!

No one should be judged for good or bad, simply on account of what religion they practice, or none.

Only HOW we do so, should matter.

 Islamists who want to bring Shariah Law here? We should fight that, all the way.

But the many Muslims just peacefully practicing their faith should be left to do so in safety and with a respect that we have every right to ask to be mutual.

Two young Muslim guys saying that someone asked them if they had bombs inside their jackets.

If that happened, then I’m far from OK with it. 

It’s one thing to challenge someone who is behaving in a suitably dubious manner. 

The guy carrying the bomb at The Manchester Arena was just such a person. There should have been zero qualms about challenging him, but he wasn’t.

Quite another to ask two young men on the street if they’re carrying bombs, just because of their religion.

None of that helps us to deal with the real problems. In fact it hinders it!

There’s ZERO reasons why we can’t support people practicing their own faiths and cultures, within our British Laws.

 Whilst also practicing the religious and cultural traditions that have been part of British Life for centuries, and longer.

If people want to come and share their lives with us here. Then let’s show them British Values to share and be united by, as well as having the freedom to follow their own faith.

That’s a Multiculturalism that I’ll support up to the hilt.
