                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 class="entry-title"><span style="font-size: 14pt">Belfast Burns Following Horrific Attempted Beheading by Sudanese Muslim – Protesters Go Door to Door Evicting Foreign Immigrants, Setting Homes on Fire:</span></h1>
<div class="entry-headline h5">
<p>A Sudanese Muslim attempted to behead a man in a Belfast street. Now, citizens in Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the UK and across Europe are beginning to fight back against enforced immigration and conquest, rioting in the streets. Welcome to the Bubba Effect.</p>
</div>
<div class="entry-content">
<p>A Sudanese Muslim immigrant named Hadi Alodid, 30, attempted to behead a neighbor of his named Stephen Ogilvie, 44, in the middle of a street in Belfast, Ireland, reportedly four days after Ogilvie tried to help Alodid move. The victim has lost one eye, and the other may go as well. He was stabbed in the head, face, and back before his attacker tried to cut off his head.</p>
<p><span>According to </span><a href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/migrant-riots-iran-sudanese-asylum">Blaze Media</a><span>, “The attacker reportedly obtained asylum in the United Kingdom in 2023 and traveled to Paris before going to Belfast in Northern Ireland.”</span></p>
<p><span>From </span><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/belfast-burns-sudanese-migrant-arrested-brutal-knife-attack">Fox News</a><span>, “Video circulating online appeared to show members of the public confronting the attacker, including one person wielding a hurling stick. PSNI Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson praised the bystanders as ‘heroic,’ saying their intervention helped save the victim’s life.”</span></p>
<p>The first man gave the attacker a good thwacking with that stick. Others joined in to help and kicked the savage aggressively in the head to make him stop.</p>
<p>The immigrant reportedly used a kitchen knife.</p>
<p>He also allegedly told emergency services, “I have killed someone. I don’t know if they are dead.”</p>
<p>Alodid was arrested just minutes after the savage attack and made his first appearance in court today. He faces charges of attempted murder and possessing a blade, according to the<span> </span><a href="https://nypost.com/2026/06/10/world-news/belfast-stabbing-victim-lost-eye-during-attempted-beheading-as-sudanese-suspect-is-idd/">New York Post</a>. He was silent in court and was denied bail. The attacker speaks only Arabic. His next hearing is July 8.</p>
<p><span>The Muslim migrant reportedly exploited a legal loophole to get into the UK, but that’s not hard to do under the criminal two-tier justice leadership of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.</span></p>
<p>The attack in Belfast has set fire to a powder keg that could very well lead to civil war, as Europe’s citizens have had enough of forced immigration/invasion and are now fighting back.</p>
<p><span>Riots exploded across Northern Ireland Tuesday night. Masked men hurled petrol bombs at cops as they went door to door, yanking out so-called immigrants, while telling them to get out and setting their domiciles ablaze.</span></p>
<p>...<span>Violence is the last resort of repressed people. Islam has done what no one else could… it has brought Catholics and Protestants together in Ireland with a common cause – survival.</span></p>

<p class="subheading">Bedlam broke out in Belfast on Tuesday evening as protests turned violent and rioters set fires to vehicles and homes in the wake of an apparent beheading attempt allegedly at the hands of a Sudanese migrant.</p>
<p class="a9d-pre"><span>Horrific footage of the <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2026/06/08/northern-ireland-horror-man-arrested-after-apparent-beheading-attempt-in-belfast/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stabbing attack</a> on Monday evening, in which a man was seen repeatedly stabbing another man’s neck, inflamed tensions in Northern Ireland, which had previously been the site of anti-mass migration.</span></p>
<p><span>While acknowledging that people have a “right to be angry” over the attack and the importation of an “alien culture” against their will, the MP said that engaging in violence in response would only give Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer an “excuse to talk in dismissive terms about right-wing extremists and about people indulging in violence” rather than addressing the root of the problem.</span></p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><span style="font-size: 14pt">Free… If You Can Get it: Emergency Room Waits Kill 300-a-Week in Socialised Healthcare UK:</span></h1>
<p><span>Over 300 people died every week while waiting for treatment in British emergency rooms in 2025, where deadly overcrowding in hospitals is said to have been normalised, with half a million people forced to wait over 24 hours in a year.</span></p>
<p><span>Analysis of official government data by the Royal College of Emergency Medicine estimates that over 1,300 people died a month in Accident &amp; Emergency (A&amp;E) departments last year because they were forced to wait too long for treatment. The 15,860 avoidable deaths over the course of 2025 is ten times higher than a decade earlier, and is said to be a result of British hospitals where overcrowding has been normalised.</span></p>
<p><em>The Times of London</em><span> </span><a class="x5l" href="https://www.thetimes.com/uk/healthcare/article/a-and-e-patients-dying-long-delays-5j8qsjr7d" target="_blank" rel="noopener external">states</a><span> </span>the main reason for extremely long A&amp;E wait times is not the emergency room itself, but rather that the other departments in hospitals are so overcrowded they cannot admit any more patients for treatment. The inability to move arrivals onto other parts of the hospital where they should be leaves the ER itself to become a giant waiting room for grievously ill people, with many accommodated on beds in corridors.</p>
<p class="a9d-pre">The report cites the remarks of the president of the Royal College, Dr Ian Higginson, who said he questioned “how many more deaths it will take before we see a determined, meaningful plan to tackle this crisis.” He continued: “As an emergency doctor, it’s heartbreaking that patients arrive to our emergency departments in their time of need, and we can’t do our jobs properly because we are full. To make things worse we are being asked to focus on the least sick patients to try to marginally improve headline statistics, rather than on those who need our services the most.”</p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 class="entry-title"><span style="font-size: 14pt">The Bible, Science, and Other Sources of Uncomfortable Truth Are Now Crimes in Canada and the UK:</span></h1>
<p>Canada’s new bill to restrict hate speech would remove protections for the Bible, meaning that posting or carrying a placard quoting Leviticus or other scriptures condemning LGBTQ behavior, or possibly even claiming there are<span> </span><a href="https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/07/new-pope-still-only-two-genders-marriage-only/">only two genders</a>, could be considered hate speech, a jailable offense. Since the existence of only two genders and the fact that a baby is a living, breathing human life inside its mother’s womb are scientific facts, ostensibly citing<span> </span><a href="https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/12/medical-doctor-confirms-there-are-only-men-women/">scientific textbooks</a><span> </span>could also be jailable if those facts hurt someone’s feelings.</p>
<p>Over the past decade, the UK and Canada, previously two of the freest countries on earth, have shifted so far left that they have become some of the most restrictive in terms of freedom of speech and freedom of religion.</p>
<p>The left supports abortion by claiming it is a woman’s right to choose and that a fetus is not a baby and not really a human life, and therefore not entitled to protection. Meanwhile, the biological reality is that a fetus is a human offspring, commonly known as a baby, and it is a human life and therefore should qualify for protection under the law.</p>
<p>Despite the fact that science and Christian teachings overlap in this case, as they do with the two-genders discussion, liberals accuse Christians of ignoring “the science” or rejecting science. However, biology textbooks written before 2019 are quite clear on these points. Under current hate-speech rules, citing those books could be considered a hate crime.</p>
<p>We are now living in a world where up is down and right is wrong. They say, “Follow the science,” except when the science contradicts their beliefs, in which case they say, “Not that science, stupid.”</p>
<p>It is now considered someone’s right to kill a baby and a crime to point out that they shouldn’t. Despite the fact that there are only men and women, and have always been only men and women, not only are we meant to believe in other genders, but it is a criminal act if we refuse to comply with someone’s delusion.</p>
<p>And most telling of all, the Bible is now considered hate.</p>

<div class="widget__subheadline">
<p>The scientists behind the project stress that efforts are taken to block consciousness in the revived brains.</p>
</div>
<div id="utm_campaign">Several years ago, a team of researchers obtained numerous pig brains from a slaughterhouse and revived them off-site for experimentation purposes. That team has since moved up the food chain. Now it obtains human donors' brains, restores their functions, and uses them to test experimental drugs.</div>

<p>Whereas other researchers might be limited to experimenting on<span> </span><a class="rm-stats-tracked" href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/scientists-seek-to-create-biocomputers-using-lab-grown-human-brain-organoids" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lab-grown, human pseudo-brains</a><span> </span>or cell cultures, the team at Bexorg meddles with "full mature, intact, and isolated brains for days on end" with the stated aim of advancing brain disease therapies.</p>
<p>Unlike the company's slick pitch, the reality appears to be something of a horror show. After all, the over 700 brains that have been subjected to experimentation at Bexorg so far were apparently far from inert.</p>
<p><span>Bexorg takes human brains from their newly deceased donors' bodies, places them in what are effectively vats, and feeds them liters of blood substitute and other fluids that provide oxygen from an artificial lung and carry away waste to a fake kidney. The tubes that carry the sustaining fluids are connected to blood vessels in the brain via four plastic ports....</span></p>

<p class="subheading">(AP) — Residents of St. Petersburg, Russia’s second-largest city, were told not to leave their homes after a “large-scale” Ukrainian drone attack targeted the city Saturday morning, underscoring Kyiv’s growing ability to hit deep inside Russia, a day after the Russian president refused an offer to meet his Ukrainian counterpart.</p>
<p class="a9d-pre">St. Petersburg Gov. Alexander Beglov advised the residents not to go outside and warned of possible disruptions to mobile internet service, while Regional Gov. Alexander Drozdenko said 141 drones were shot down over the surrounding Leningrad region.</p>
<p><span>Russia’s Defense Ministry said its air defenses shot down 376 Ukrainian drones.</span></p>
<p><span>Although no casualties were immediately reported, the renewed attack on St. Petersburg is the latest embarrassing blow to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s efforts to cast the conflict as a distant event that doesn't affect Russian daily life.</span></p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 class="entry-title"><span style="font-size: 14pt">SHOCKING MUCKRAKER FOOTAGE: UK Police Admit “Anything Racist” or Offensive Speech Gets You Arrested – The Same Mindset That Led Cops to Handcuff Dying Henry Nowak After His Killer Cried Racism:</span></h1>
<p dir="auto">“Henry Nowak was stabbed 5 times, then handcuffed and left to die because someone accused him of being racist. We asked UK police what kind of speech could get you arrested. They told us saying something offensive was enough. Henry Nowak died because of police like this.” — Investigative reporter Muckraker</p>
<p dir="auto">As The Gateway Pundit has reporte in recent days, 18-year-old Henry Nowak, a promising Polish-British university student, was brutally stabbed five times in Southampton on December 3, 2025, by 23-year-old Vickrum Digwa, a British Sikh wielding a large dagger (alongside a kirpan). Digwa then lied to arriving officers, falsely claiming Nowak had racially abused him and assaulted him.</p>
<p dir="auto"><a href="https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/06/horror-ive-been-stabbed-uk-police-bodycam-footage/">Bodycam footage,</a><span> </span>released with the family’s permission, shows the dying teenager pleading “I’ve been stabbed” and “I can’t breathe” repeatedly while officers handcuffed him on the ground.</p>
<p dir="auto">One officer even replied, “I don’t think you have, mate.” Nowak died in police custody, humiliated and in handcuffs, because the system prioritized a false “racism” allegation over a bleeding victim.</p>
<p dir="auto">...<span>When police are trained that “racism” allegations (even from the actual perpetrator) must be taken at face value and acted upon immediately, while actual violence takes a backseat, innocent people die. This is two-tier policing in its most grotesque form — as The Gateway Pundit and voices like Nigel Farage have warned.</span></p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt">The Roots of Pride: Celebrating Rebellion Against God</span></strong></p>
<p><span>June is considered LGBTQ+ Pride Month in the United States, Canada, and many other nations. Throughout the month various activities, including Pride Parades, will be taking place in celebration and honor of the LGBTQ+ community and sexual diversity. But this celebration of LGBTQ+ Pride points to something the </span><a href="https://answersingenesis.org/bible/">Bible</a><span> warns against time and time again—and it is not just sexual immorality.</span></p>
<p><span>As the name suggests, at the heart of Pride Month and other Pride celebrations and even the idea of Pride is the sin of pride... But God “opposes the proud” (<a class="rtBibleRef" href="https://ref.ly/James%204.6;kjv1900?t=biblia" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-reference="James 4.6" data-version="kjv1900" data-purpose="bible-reference">James 4:6</a>)...</span></p>
<p><span>Pride comes from a rebellious heart that rejects the benevolent authority of the Creator. A proud person ultimately claims to know better than God and his Word and believes that inventing our own rules and celebrating our own choices, achievements, and desires is greater than what God has commanded in his Word. It’s a movement that puts the focus squarely on us rather than on God.</span></p>
<p><span>Humanity’s </span><a href="https://answersingenesis.org/sin/the-first-sin/">first sin</a><span> was really an example of pride... Deceived by the serpent, Eve believed God was selfishly withholding equality that she wanted, so she took the fruit and ate before offering it to Adam, who also ate. At the heart of their rebellion was pride in their own thinking and lust after what they wanted. But it broke creation (<a class="rtBibleRef" href="https://ref.ly/Rom%208.22;kjv1900?t=biblia" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-reference="Rom 8.22" data-version="kjv1900" data-purpose="bible-reference">Romans 8:22</a>) and brought death and the curse into what was, moments before, a “very good” creation (<a class="rtBibleRef" href="https://ref.ly/Gen%201.31;kjv1900?t=biblia" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-reference="Gen 1.31" data-version="kjv1900" data-purpose="bible-reference">Genesis 1:31</a>).</span></p>
<p><span>Pride is the root of all sin. Pride puffs one up with a false sense of independence. Proud people always feel that they can live independently from God and from other people. Proud people feel entitled to do what they want when they want to.”</span></p>
<p><span>The battle over marriage and gender being waged right now in the church is about much more than the institution of marriage or the binary nature of gender. It is ultimately about pride. Will we allow God, our Creator and Judge, to be our authority, or will we exalt our own beliefs and opinions (or those of our sinful culture) above God and his Word? Will we elevate ourselves to judge and dishonor God, like Eve, thinking he is capriciously withholding something good from us?</span></p>
<p><span>Over this next month, rainbow-colored flags will flutter in parades, and many people will adorn rainbow-themed attire to celebrate Pride. But these individuals are not truly celebrating sexual diversity. They are celebrating rebellion against God (ironically, while using the rainbow, a symbol God already gave meaning to in </span><a class="rtBibleRef" href="https://ref.ly/Gen%209.8%E2%80%9317;kjv1900?t=biblia" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-reference="Gen 9.8–17" data-version="kjv1900" data-purpose="bible-reference">Genesis 9:8–17</a><span>). </span></p>
