An attacker killed three people and injured others in a knife attack in a church in the southern French city of Nice. Two of the victims are said to have been beheaded.

Information about the perpetrator was initially not available. The perpetrator was shot and then arrested by the police and taken to hospital, reported the regional Nice-Matin newspaper, citing security sources. He is in his twenties and claimed to be called Brahim.
The incident is reminiscent of the Islamist attack on the teacher Samuel Paty in Paris on October 16. The educator was killed by an 18-year-old Chechen shouting Allahu Akbar and then beheaded. The teacher had shown Mohammed cartoons in class as an example of freedom of expression and received angry reactions from Muslims.
Four years ago, an Islamist carried out a massive terrorist attack in a truck in Nice. He drove the vehicle across a promenade and killed 86 people. Some 400 others were injured, some seriously. That same year, Islamists killed an 86-year-old priest in a church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray. The perpetrators described themselves as “soldiers of the Islamic State” and seriously injured another person.
The mayor of Nice, Christian Estrosi, wrote on Twitter that everything pointed to a terrorist attack. He called for stricter measures to “destroy Islamofascism”. For security reasons, he asked for all churches in the city to be closed.
The parish priest, Gil Florini, told the broadcaster BFMTV that they had been warned of an attack in advance. “We were warned that attacks could occur. We were warned for two or three days that there could be additional attacks with the coming of All Saints’ Day. We were on our guard, but we didn’t think it would turn out like that.”
According to French radio stations, the arrested perpetrator repeatedly shouted “Allahu Akbar” after his arrest. French President Emmanuel Macron is on the way to the attack site.
Another similar attack reportedly also occurred in Avignon on Thursday morning. There a man is said to have threatened passers-by with a knife while shouting “Allahu Akbar”. The police shot the man. According to the British daily The Mirror, the man had attacked police officers.
According to our information, a third knife attack also took place in front of the French consulate in Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. These barbaric attacks were justified by the former prime minister of Malaysia.

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. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.
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.

Certain representatives of the party are accused of becoming increasingly "extreme," and in an unusual move, the influential weekly newspaper Der Spiegel demanded that AfD be "banned."

The national anthem of France warns about this: “qui viennent jusque dans nos bras, égorger nos fils et nos compagnes…” They come at us to behead our sons and our loved ones. The woman who had her throat slit, managed to get out of church and died in a bar nearby after asking the staff to tell her children that she loved them. It’s absolutely heartbreaking.
The intifada is heating up. Now it is an attack on a church. Where will it be next? How many more will die? A lot of so-called “commenters” will claim that this attack is inresponse ot the French government security reaction to the Paty murder. In reality, it is one more jihadist act designed to show the defiance of the Muslims in France to the civil authorities. The message is quite clear, namely that the no-go zones in France and elsewhere in western Europe no longer wish to be under host nation laws and civil administration. And thus such atrocities and outrages will continue until they are stopped at the source, namely the no-go zones and uncontrolled illegal migration.
