An Army veteran, a recent college graduate and a student who once won a poetry contest by condemning prejudice stirred up by the Sept. 11 attacks intervened as a man screamed anti-Muslim insults at two women in Portland, Ore., on Friday.

[...] Two of the men — Taliesin Myrddin Namkai Meche, 23, and Rick Best, 53 — died in the attack, which occurred on a commuter train. The third, Micah David-Cole Fletcher, 21, was treated on Saturday for injuries that the police said were serious but not life-threatening.

Jeremy Christian, 35, of North Portland, Ore., was charged with two counts of aggravated murder in the attack and could face additional charges when he is arraigned on Tuesday. Mr. Christian, who the authorities said had a history of making extremist statements on social media, was ranting at, and talking disparagingly about, the two women, one of whom was wearing a hijab.

President Donald Trump has released his first official statement on the attack in Portland, Oregon, more than 48 hours after the two victims died.

"The violent attacks in Portland on Friday are unacceptable," Mr Trump tweeted. "The victims were standing up to hate and intolerance. Our prayers are w/ them."

Portland law enforcement leaders were tightlipped Saturday about the investigation into Friday's attacks that killed two men on a light rail train but a federal official did say it was too early to label the incident a hate crime.

[...] Loren Cannon, special agent in charge of the Portland FBI office, [...]

"It's too early to say whether last night's violence was an act of domestic terrorism or a federal hate crime," he said. "However, in the coming days, the FBI, PPB and the prosecutors will work together to share information, leverage resources and make determinations about future criminal charges."

[...] Leaders of the Muslim community said they were thankful for the men who gave their lives to save the girls from harm. They have raised $50,000 toward a goal of $60,000 to help support the victims and their families.

    Muhammad Raped while Bobby Stayed Mum
    By Ryan James Girdusky
    The cult of diversity has claimed four dozen more victims.  On May 8, 2012, nine men were convicted of rape, conspiracy to engage in sexual activity with minors, trafficking for sexual exploitation, conspiracy to engage in sexual activity with children, sexual assault, and aiding and abetting a rape.  All nine of the men are Muslim, eight are British Pakistani, and one is Afghani.  The gruesome details of the crime are in themselves barbaric, but the responses from British police are languid and discomfiting.
    The national scandal began in 2005 as the nine men in the Manchester area, some of them taxi drivers, would lure many young teenage girls, often 13 to 15 years old, with free food, drugs, and alcohol.  The girls came from shoddy backgrounds; many were teenage runaways and living on social services.  Once they were high or drunk, they were beaten and raped.  They were passed around to other men, mostly of Pakistani descent, where they would be gang-raped by three to five men a night.  One case involved a 13-year-old who became pregnant after she was gang-raped by three men.  And yet another disgusting incident involved a 15-year-old who was so drunk that she threw up off the side of the bed while two Pakistani men raped her.  Another involved a 15-year-old who was gang-raped by 20 men in one night. 

    The Telegraph stated, "There were 631 documented cases of abuse over a five-year period, and many will have been too afraid to tell their story."
    The nine men were between the ages of 22 and 59.  One of the men, Abdul Rauf, a married father of five, also happens to be a religious studies teacher at a local mosque.  The men received a total prison sentence of 77 years.

    The rapes are a tragedy -- it is a tragedy that vulnerable girls can be so easily abducted, raped, and abused.  However, it is the delayed response by police and civil service in the area that is the national scandal.  In August of 2008, one of the victims, then 15 years old, went to police and social workers; she provided the police with DNA evidence to back up her story of being gang-raped.  Twice the police refused to prosecute.  She continued to be raped by up to five men a night, four or five nights a week.  Former Labour MP Ann Cryer said the silence of the Manchester Bobbies is due to the fact that they were "petrified of being called racists."  The Manchester police and Rochdale social services publicly apologized, but their fears of being given the scarlet "R" were not in vain.

    The accusation of racism can end public servants' careers, so oftentimes they must revert to political correctness.

    Political correctness was also the fallback for most of the politicians in the House of Commons.  Leading MP Keith Vaz stated that the gang-rapes were "appalling" but that it was important not to "stigmatize an entire community."  He later stated, "I don't think this has anything to do with race."

    However, Equalities and Human Rights Commission chief Trevor Phillips said, "I think anybody who says that the fact that most of the men are Asian and most of the children are white is not relevant, I mean that's just fatuous."  Nazir Afzal, the chief crown prosecutor, who himself is a Muslim, stated that some immigrants bring "cultural baggage" with them from misogynistic societies.

    The link between the crime and the girls' race is undeniable according to top officials in the Human Rights Commission, and yet most media outlets outside the U.K. still ignore the case.  Had roles been reversed and it were twenty white men gang-raping a Muslim woman, the international media would not rest until there was blood in the streets.  The hype of the Trayvon Martin murder is simply ignored when the victims cannot produce the narrative most multiculturalists in the mainstream media wish to project.

    It is a sad day for Great Britain on the whole, not just for her victimized daughters -- for the nation which at one point had an empire so large that the sun never set on it has now been reduced to a nation of cowards.  If a nation cannot perform its most basic obligation to protect its citizenry because its leaders prioritize protecting their multicultural ideology, that nation and its culture are dead.  In the West, theological faith has given way to political religion -- a religion predicated upon self-deception and self-destruction, a religion, which may yet be proven to be as fatal for the West as it has so callously negligent toward these young girls.  If Western civilization and all the fruit it has borne are to survive this seeming twilight, then both the ideology of multiculturalism and the cult of diversity must be defeated.

      The story of the thousands of young, mostly white girls who were raped by British-born Pakistani Muslims has just become more grotesque. A government report issued last week by British social welfare official Louise Casey into the rapes found that the Rotherham council attempted to cover up evidence and represented an overall failure of leadership. Just days after that damming report, Rotherham’s Labour MP, Sarah Champion, said “I’m getting new victims coming to me on a weekly basis.” She went on to say Muslim gangs may have assaulted as many as a million girls in the UK.

      Sky News spoke to a Rotherham victim who said she sees her abusers “driving young girls in their cars, “untouchable,” and that the abuse is “still going on if not worse, because now they’re having to hide it more.” Sky News also said the authorities had known about hundreds more cases of sexual abuse last August, when Professor Alexis Jay issued her report about the rapes, and that hundreds more are still being reported.

      Despite the outcry in the British media at the time of the Jay Report, the rapes continue. The UK’s political correctness has prevented it from tackling the issue properly.

      According to the Casey Report, the council did not act on the claims of sexual molestation, child abuse, and rape “for fear of appearing racist.” The report also detailed how quite a few victims believed the police did not act on their claims for fear of being accused of being racist.

      Jay’s report had found that more than 1,400 girls, some as young as eleven, had been sexually exploited by Muslim gangs. It said they “were raped by multiple perpetrators, trafficked to other towns and cities in the north of England, abducted, beaten, and intimidated.

      “There were examples of children who been doused in petrol and threatened with being set alight, threatened with guns, made to witness brutally violent rapes and threatened they would be next if they told anyone.”

      A similar story unfolded in nearby Rochdale, where police arrested nine Muslim men for sexually abusing dozens of young girls in 2012. The rapes were brutal; one teen recounted at a trial being raped by two men while she was “so drunk she was vomiting over the side of the bed.” Overall there were 631 documented cases over a five-year period.

      These cases of pedophilia, rape, and sexual abuse were well known to police and social services long before the reports and the arrests. In 2008, one of the Rochdale victims, then 15, went to the police and social workers providing DNA evidence to back up her story of being gang-raped. Twice the police refused to prosecute. She continued to be raped by up to five men a night, four or five nights a week. Rotherham police received 157 reports in 2013 concerning sexual exploitation though the police were receiving evidence dating back to 2002, all of which was ignored or suppressed.

      The government has failed these girls because it’s racially and culturally inconvenient to help them. The rapists are Muslim, and the majority of the victims are white. In the UK, racial sensitivity is so high that the mere accusation of racism could end a public servant’s career. And the political class promotes political correctness and multiculturalism at any cost.

      Immediately after the Rochdale case came to light, politicians appeared to care more about protecting political correctness more than their citizens. MP Keith Vaz denounced the rapes as “appalling” but followed by saying it was important not to “stigmatize an entire community” and believed the girls were not the target of abuse because they were white: “I don’t think this has anything to do with race.”

      The MP’s statements were the total opposite of those by Equalities and Human Rights Commission chief Trevor Phillips, who said anyone “who says that the fact that most of the men are Asian and most of the children are white is not relevant” is being fatuous. Yet Nazir Afzal, the chief crown prosecutor, who is Muslim himself, defended some of the immigrants, saying they bring “cultural baggage” with them from misogynistic societies.

      After two investigations and the comments by Phillips and Afzal, it could not be clearer that political correctness is putting every girl in the UK at risk. Moreover, political correctness has become a tool for predators to use against the most vulnerable citizens. Cloaked behind ideas of tolerance and multicultural unity, political correctness is failing the girls of the United Kingdom like it failed the Jews in France.

      Even today, more girls are being victimized, yet their abusers are still walking free as  the politically correct fear of discussing racism as a two-way street keeps politicians and institutions from doing anything about it.

    In Stockholm, Sweden, as many as 20 Muslim men gang-raped an 11-year-old girl. A mother was hosting a birthday party at a public bath/swim center for a group of 11 and 12 year old children. Up to 20 Muslim men who lived at a nearby refugee center arrived at the public bath. They immediately began to assault the children, ripping their swimsuits off and beating the boys when they tried to stop the assault. Eventually, the men cornered one of the little girls in a grotto in the bathhouse and gang raped her. The police refused to make any arrests.

    England has probably the most massive Muslim rape and prostitution problem in Europe, in large part because the British government refuses to acknowledge it. Two years ago, the British online paper, The Daily Mail reported that hundreds of white British girls were used as prostitutes, rape victims, and sex slaves by Muslim men (whom the British refer to a “Asians”):
    Police and social services have been accused of fuelling a culture of silence which has allowed hundreds of young white girls to be exploited by Asian men for sex.
    Agencies have identified a long-term pattern of offending by gangs of men, predominantly from the British Pakistani community, who have befriended and abused hundreds of vulnerable girls aged 11 to 16.
    Experts claim the statistics represent a mere fraction of a ‘tidal wave’ of offending in counties across the Midlands and the north of England which has been going on for more than a decade.
    The details of what happened – the methodical way the men go about grooming the girls and the way the girls are subsequently used by men across England – make for horrifying reading. Not all of the men convicted have been Muslim, but the majority have been:
    The grooming usually begins with older groups of men befriending girls aged from 11 to 16 they meet on the street.
    In a typical scenario, the victim is initially treated as a girlfriend and showered with presents and attention.
    But the relationship quickly becomes more sinister as the abuser plies the child with drink and drugs before effectively pimping her out to friends and associates.
    The worst cases involve young girls being moved around the country to be repeatedly abused.
    Charities and agencies working in conjunction with the police to help victims of sexual abuse in such cases have publicly denied there is a link between ethnicity and the on-street grooming of young girls by gangs and pimps.
    But researchers identified 17 court prosecutions since 1997, 14 of them in the past three years, involving the on-street grooming of girls aged 11 to 16 by groups of men.
    The victims came from 13 towns and cities and in each case two or more men were convicted of offences.
    In total, 56 people, with an average age of 28, were found guilty of crimes including rape, child abduction, indecent assault and sex with a child.
    Three of the 56 were white, 53 were Asian. Of those, 50 were Muslim and a majority were members of the British Pakistani community.

    In Australia in 2000, gang rapes of non-Muslim women by Muslim men became so overwhelming that they were eventually lumped together under the heading of “Sydney gang rapes.” The perpetrators were a group of Lebanese Australian Muslims that specifically targeted non-Muslim women and teenage girls, some as young as 14.
    The six rapes occurred over a one month period. The details of these attacks make for stomach-churning reading. One woman was taken to 3 separate locations, and was eventually raped 25 times by 14 men over a period of 6 hours. A 16-year-old girl was raped by 2 men, before an audience of 12 men. They ended the attack against her by holding a gun to her head and kicking her in the stomach.
    Comments that the men made during the rapes made it clear that these were intended as racial terrorism attacks. Victims heard such things as “You deserve it because you’re an Australian,” and “I’m going to fuck you Leb style.”

    A 15 year old girl in Malaysia was gang raped by 38 Muslim men, with each man taking turns for several hours. Police have arrested 15 men and are looking for the remaining ones as the investigation is going under way.

    According to several media outlets, police chief Azham Otham said 38 men were involved. The same chief said:

    "It is very disturbing to me that no one in the village was even suspicious when the closest neighbour was a mere 20 metres away"

    Another activist said:

    "We are seeing a prevalence in rape cases because boys are raised in an environment where they think it is okay to use violence"

    One report said:

    The men took turns to rape her for hours. Police were also investigating whether her 17-year-old friend was also raped. … Almost 3,000 rapes were reported to the police in 2012, of which 52 percent involved girls aged 16 and below, according to police statistics.

    I could never imagine that someone could be raped by 38 men, but once you realize that we are dealing with a spiritual darkness, then the truth remains: there is no limit to evil. Satan has no limits, and the mind, under his control, plunges itself ceaselessly through the never ending ocean of sinister depravity.

    Muslim Male "Refugees" Are Gang Raping Women in Europe
    Katie Pavlich  | January 07, 2016

    Two weeks ago the New York Times ran a story about the need to host classes in Norway and Denmark for Muslim men new to the country. The topic? Rape is wrong and unacceptable. 

    A course manual sets out a simple rule that all asylum seekers need to learn and follow: “To force someone into sex is not permitted in Norway, even when you are married to that person.”

    In Denmark, lawmakers are pushing to have such sex education included in mandatory language classes for refugees. The German region of Bavaria, the main entry point to Germany for asylum seekers, is already experimenting with such classes at a shelter for teenage migrants in the town of Passau.

    Many refugees “come from cultures that are not gender equal and where women are the property of men,”
    Mr. Isdal said. “We have to help them adapt to their new culture.”

    Henry Ove Berg, who was Stavanger’s police chief during the spike in rape cases, said he supported providing migrants sex education because “people from some parts of the world have never seen a girl in a miniskirt, only in a burqa.” When they get to Norway, he added, “something happens in their heads.”
    Now, Germany is facing the same type of rape epidemic as progressive politicians continue to allow thousands of refugees, many of whom are military aged males, into the country. 

    During New Years Eve celebrations in the western city of Cologne, dozens of Muslim men allegedly participated in rape mobs. They surrounded young women, touched them, raped them and stole their wallets and cell phones. Tensions surrounding how the situation is being handled are rising by the day. From ABC News: 

     A string of sex assaults and robberies during New Year's celebrations in Germany has fuelled debate about the country's ability to integrate large numbers of migrants, after police said that men who targeted dozens of women in the western city of Cologne appeared to be of "Arab or North African origin."

    Political leaders including Chancellor Angela Merkel condemned the attacks, though many also warned against hasty conclusions about the perpetrators. But to some Germans already uneasy about the one million asylum-seekers their country took in last year the incident seemed to confirm simmering fears.

     "It's unacceptable that women are sexually molested and robbed by young migrants on the streets and public squares of German cities at night," said Andreas Scheuer, general secretary of the Christian Social Union, the Bavarian wing of Merkel's party.

    "Whoever won't accept our rules for living together, including respect for women, can have no place in our society here in Germany," said Scheuer.
    If you have to educate an entire influx of Muslim men about how rape is wrong, you probably shouldn't be letting them into your country.

    And again, lets not forget the massive cover up of the rapes of thousands of children, boys and girls, in Britain for the sake of not being called Islamophobic.

    Muslim gang-rapes across Europe under-reported in press     

    High profile-gang rapes in India have been in the headlines since December. The phenomenon is growing across Europe too, but tends to be under reported due to the high incidence of Muslim perpetrators which makes it politically incorrect to mention.

    In December 2011 a Swedish mother-of-two was subjected to a brutal gang-rape by 12 Afghan immigrants in a refugee camp in Mariannelund. Reports stated "The rape was oral, anal and vaginal sometimes with three rapists inside her at the same time while everybody was cheering and clapping. The gruesome rape marathon lasted for 7 hours. 11 suspect may have been involved taking turns while drinking and getting high on drugs. The asylum seekers were cheering and clapping their hands during the rape marathon while calling the victim "whore" and "slut"."

    According to Vimmerby Tidning "The woman went into shock while the rapes were still underway, and has since been in a heavily traumatised state. She is now subject to nightmares and panic attacks, and lives in a psychiatric clinic. She is bound to a wheelchair due to damages to her abdomen, and suffers from faecal incontinence."

    The main perpetrator Rafi Bahaduri, 25, had already committed four other rapes in Sweden. The case is not unique. There is a growing trend of gang-rapes perpetrated against white women by Muslim rapists.

    In the U.K. there has been a steady stream of cases where primarily under- privileged young English girls have been targeted, groomed and raped by gangs of what the British press euphemistically refers to as Asian men. However, the published names of the perpetrators are primarily of Pakistan and Afghanistan origin when the gang rapists appear in court. The Asian gangs do not contain rapists from China, Japan, and the Philippines.

    Cases have been reported in Rochdale, Rotherham, Derby, Bradford, Blackpool - the list goes on. An article regarding the phenomenon in Standpoint notes: "According to some of the mothers, a fear of being branded racist makes many of the police and social services reluctant to investigate the crimes as organised and connected. One mother from Rotherham, whose 14-year-old daughter was groomed into prostitution and multiply raped during a 12-month period, told me that almost every man convicted of these crimes in the north of England is from Pakistan but that the authorities insist that it is not relevant."

    More and more cases are reported across Europe. The following is just a very small sample (some figures indicate 5,000 gang-rapes occur in France alone each year.)

    In October 2011 a British woman was brutally gang-raped by five Afghan refugees in Banja Koviljaca, Serbia. According to the Austrian Times the men were living in a local refugee centre housing 2,500 illegal immigrants.

    In June 2011 a 14-year-old Norwegan girl, Eva Helgetun, committed suicide after being gang-raped by three teenage migrants.

    In January 2013 the Local reported a 22-year-old woman was gang-raped by five men in Stockholm, the first of three reported gang-rapes in the city this year. Eight Muslim male teenagers have been arrested on suspicion of aggravated rape in connection with the three incidents.

    In March 2013 a British tourist was gang-raped by three Arab men in a Spanish resort.

    The Archbishop of Cranmer's blog spot details a high-profile disturbing case in France where two teengage girls were the prolonged victims of constant gang-rapes by dozens of Muslim teenagers.

    Cranmer states that all the men involved that were eventually convicted were Muslims which leads him to question: "Why is the issue of gang-rape committed by young men identified as belonging to a particular minority background consistently suppressed? Are there reporting restrictions? Infringement of their human rights? A conspiracy of silence?"

    The silence across MSM in Europe regarding the growing number of gang-rapes against white women by Muslim men and grooming gangs is indeed deafening.
