‘Reclaim Australia’: Anti-Islam rallies provoke fear in Muslim community

‘Reclaim Australia’: Anti-Islam rallies provoke fear in Muslim community Muslim community leaders expressed fear and bewilderment after protesters gathered in over a dozen Australian cities at the weekend to express their opposition to minority groups, who want to ‘change the cultural identity of the country.’ Randa Kattan, CEO of Arab Council Australia, warned such racist type of events could quickly spiral out of control. “In terms of numbers they might be insignificant, but in terms of damage, it is significant,” she told the Guardian. She called the protesters “squeaky wheels grabbing attention,” but was careful not to underestimate such groups… View Article

Homeland Stockpiling “Less Lethal Specialty Munitions”

Homeland Stockpiling “Less Lethal Specialty Munitions” Riot police of the Western world have recently come up against a succession of formidable threats. In Frankfurt for instance, German authorities were forced to square off against a legion of angry clowns who, in an effort to express their displeasure at austerity measures advocated by the ECB (which was at the time celebrating the completion of their new Frankfurt headquarters), set quite a few things on fire. Meanwhile, in the mean streets of Montreal, an “association of young communists” forgot to provide authorities with a protest itinerary, which led police to settle the… View Article

Imperial Eggs

 Imperial Eggs The series of lavish Easter eggs created by Fabergé for the Russian Imperial family, between 1885 and 1916, against an extraordinary historical backdrop, is regarded as the artist-goldsmith’s greatest and most enduring achievement. The Imperial Easter eggs are certainly the most celebrated and awe-inspiring of all Fabergé works of art, inextricably bound to the Fabergé name and legend. They are also considered as some of the last great commissions of objets d’art. The story began when Tsar Alexander III decided to give a jewelled Easter egg to his wife the Empress Marie Fedorovna, in 1885, possibly to celebrate… View Article

Interpol Chief: Arm Citizens Globally to Prevent Terror Attacks

Interpol Chief: Arm Citizens Globally to Prevent Terror Attacks Interpol Secretary General Ronald Noble told ABC News that one of the only ways to prevent terrorists from hitting soft targets was to arm citizens globally, noting that the Westgate mall siege would have been averted far quicker if it had taken place in gun-friendly areas like Denver or Texas. Noble’s statements are a powerful rebuttal to the anti-gun lobby, especially given his background. The Interpol chief was formerly the head of all law enforcement for the U.S. Treasury Department. Stressing that an “armed citizenry” was the only option besides turning… View Article
