    The investigation is progressing at a very slow pace with regard to Brahim A, the French daily Le Figaro explained. And the notion of a “lone wolf” attack is no longer feasible.

    The authorities found a photograph of Abdoullakh Anzorov – the Islamist who beheaded the teacher Samuel Paty on October 16 in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine – on the phone of the author of the knife attack on the Notre-Dame basilica in Nice.

    As a reminder, Brahim A is still in a coma after receiving several bullets from the police who were trying to arrest him. The individual, originally from Tunisia, arrived on French soil only two days before carrying out his terrorist attack in Nice, thanks to being transported by a German NGO posing as a migrant taxi in the Mediterranean.

    An audio message qualifying France as a “land of disbelievers” was also found on the phone of this assailant who left three dead and fifteen wounded in Nice on October 29. Investigators also got their hands on “photographs related” to the Islamic State group, revealed the National Anti-terrorism Prosecutor’s Office on Friday, November 13.

    They therefore opened a judicial investigation for “assassinations and attempted assassinations in connection with a terrorist enterprise”.

    To date, the investigation has mobilized more than 200 people and has been entrusted to investigating judges, reported Le Figaro. Since the Nice attack, eleven individuals have been placed in police custody but released “without prosecution”.

    This prompted French CNews commentator Eric Zemmour to denounce the left-leaning judiciary: “We must cut down the power of judges who have hijacked the sovereignty of the people and [we must] resort to referendums, especially on immigration.”

    The EU ignores neutrality, provides funding to undermine political foes

    BrusselsCountries in the EU are theoretically bound to the neutrality obligation in its use of tax revenues: The taxpayer's money must not be used for political purposes. But just as the German government wants to spend 1 billion euros in the next four years on the so-called “fight against the right”, the EU is funding a network of “civil society” NGOs that represent clearly left-wing politics, actively combatting conservative politicians and their parties – Matteo Salvini and Viktor Orban are but two examples.

    Seven dead after Corona vaccination in German old people’s home

    MiesbachThe most important lesson to be drawn from the Corona crisis appears that it has become a great risk to be a retirement home resident. If one is assigned to such an institution, one invariably gives up basic human rights. At first it was "only" the restrictions on freedom of movement and contact with loved ones that the elderly had to endure, but now it is the Corona vaccination, which one can hardly avoid in these custodial institutions.

    Referendum in Switzerland could end government-imposed Covid restrictions

    GeneveSwitzerland will hold a referendum that could stop the government from imposing lockdown measures. The country has not introduced a lockdown like many other European countries, but has instead - like Sweden - mainly emphasized personal responsibility. In terms of the spread of infection and the number of deaths, it is about the same as in Sweden.
