For well over a year now, London has been hit with a number of terror incidents, including three major attacks in the last three months. According to Premier Theresa May, five credible terror plots have been foiled during the same period. In many cases, these incidents appear to have been minimized by both authorities and the media.
During his time as mayor, London has seen an increase in terror incidents while curiously most of the people banned from Britain, include “white nationalists” such as US radio personality Michael Savage, blogger Don Black and Dutch politician Geert Wilders as well as American celebrity cook Martha Stewart after it was revealed in 2008, that she had been lying to stock market investigators.
Rather than focusing on combatting terror, Khan has urged Londoners as well as citizens in other parts of Europe and the United States to learn to live with terrorism as a part of daily life.
In September 2016, Khan stated in the wake of the New York and New Jersey bombings, that the threat of terror attacks are simply “part and parcel of living in a big city”.
He lambasted Scottish nationalists for promoting “racism”, but was silent when huge crowds of Islamists gathered in London in December 2016 for a week of protests calling for the establishment of a global Caliphate. Protestors at the event openly waved flags in support of the Taliban.
According to the mayor, Trump that should not be allowed to come to London until he revoked his proposed ban on travelers to the US from six Muslim countries.
During his time as legal council, Sadiq Khan served as the Chief Legal Advisor to the Muslim Council of Britain’s legal affairs committee. In 2003, Khan protested what he described as “indiscriminate” arrests of Muslims for alleged terror ties. In 2004, Khan spoke at an event which included Ibrahim Hewitt; Hewitt is on record defending stoning as a punishment for adultery.
In 2009, Khan was part of an international campaign protesting extraditions of Taliban and Chechen jihadists to the United States.
During the 1990’s, Khan’s brother in law Makbool Javaid had called for jihad as a member of the Islamic group Al-Muhajiroun. The group has been acting as a sponsor and recruiter of British jihadists seeking to join ISIS.
Al-Muhajiroun was also lead by Anjem Choudary, a British Islamist who was jailed in 2016 for supporting the Islamic State after he released instructions on making bombs and establishing “Muslim gangs” for the purpose of committing terror attacks and is closely linked to organised crime.
While Khan has tried to distance himself from his brother in law and Al-Muhajiroun, in 2003 he shared a stage with Sajeel Abu Ibrahim, another member of Al-Muhajiroun and convicted terrorist who had trained Taliban militants.
He claims that his frequent association with various individuals and groups tied to jihad and terrorism was a result of his work as a human rights lawyer. But as The Daily Beast noted, Khan attended the majority of these events not in his capacity as a lawyer.
On October 6th, 2016: News World India reported that police in Karachi, Pakistan had recovered the largest ever cache of NATO weapons in the hands of Islamic jihadists in the city’s history. Karachi’s police chief stated that the weapons were scheduled to be shipped to militant groups in London for a major operation they were planning. How the militants were able to acquire the massive supply of NATO arms is unclear.

NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s
CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.
European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections
EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

Strong Confidence in German AfD
Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.
