Disgraced cricketer places bounty on head of Geert Wilders

The money will be given to anyone who “kills the Dutchman”.
There were 331 threats against politicians in 2017 – about the same number of death threats that Wilders received in recent weeks, after he announced a Mohammed cartoon contest in the Dutch House of Representatives. The contest will take place inside the high-security PVV offices within parliament later this year.
The 26-year-old has meanwhile been arrested at The Hague’s main railway station after placing a video on Facebook in which he describes an attack either on the parliamentary complex or the organiser of the cartoon competition, police have confirmed.
According to Voice of America, some 3000 protesters in Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad, pelted the Dutch embassy with stones. Protesters say the contest is blasphemous.
Wilders noted on Twitter that he had been made aware of the film by the Dutch counter-terrorism unit NCTB. “The NCTB told me this morning that a man had said in a Facebook film he had arrived in the Netherlands to kill me.”
The police were alerted to the film, which was made at a branch of the Doner Company at the railway station on Monday. In the video, which is in Urdu, the man reportedly states: “I am just five minutes from parliament where the exhibition is.”
According to broadcaster NOS, he then adds: “Only he is my target. I will succeed if that is what Allah wants… they make jokes about our prophet.” He then appeals to people to share the video.
The cricketer will appear in court for a remand hearing on Friday. NOS says Latif is extremely active on social media and has traveled widely in Europe over the past few months.
Wilders has said that more than 200 entries have been received for the contest, which will be judged by American cartoonist Bosch Fawstin.
The Islamist party, Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), has demanded that Islamabad break diplomatic ties with the Netherlands, and says that “strict measures should also be taken against the US” because the judge of the contest is an American.
The Pakistani Senate has recommended that a formal complaint be lodged with the Dutch embassy in the country. They also want to take the issue to the United Nations.
A resolution, which was signed by leaders of Pakistan’s political parties, accuses Wilders of “inciting hatred, racial prejudice, unrest, conflict and insecurity in a world that has already seen much bloodshed, racism, extremism, intolerance and Islamophobia”, Pakistani English-language newspaper The News International reported.
“Since under the Constitution of Pakistan, 1973, Islam is the state religion and it is the responsibility of the State to preserve, protect and promote Islam, therefore, it must stand up and articulate the general will of the Muslims of Pakistan against the proposed competition,” the resolution adds.
New Prime Minister Imran Khan says he will campaign for a global ban on cartoons of Islam’s Prophet Muhammad.

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.

Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter
The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems.

The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide
Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.
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.
