3…………> Muslim Brotherhood’s Playground: France

Bibi1581.com started calling France the “Islamic Sheikdom of France” some years back, strictly as a joke, but this is a joke no more as the security services have flagged more than 78,000 people as extremist security threats in 2017 in the all-European system, which is more than Germany and the UK noted.

Christine Tasin, the president of the French anti-Islamization movement Résistance Républicaine, pointed out that “Our Penal Code, for example, was created by Napoleon, who took it largely from the Roman Emperor Justinian. We, the French people, do not have the tradition of habeas corpus of the English people. In short, the EU wants to marry things that are like chalk and cheese.” 

“Although ethnic statistics are banned in France, the most likely estimation is 15 to 20 million Muslims or a quarter of the French population, [and up to 80% of prisoners in France] are Muslims, ” the activist stated.

“[The Islimic Sheikdom of] France is subjected to massive Islamization, implemented by the Muslim Brotherhood and its allies, as recently demonstrated by an Israeli documentary titled “The silent jihad”: the UOIF [Union of Islamic Organisations of France], which is the arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in France, with the complicity of various French governments, for the last 40 years, has been working to impose on Muslims the Islamic veil, halal, Ramadan, strict submission to Sharia law, refusal to shake the hands of women, anti-Semitic Koranic verses, whose effects are to push more and more young Muslims to succumb to the terrorist temptation,” Tasin said.

1…………> New Guinea: 7.5 Shaker

Powerful aftershocks continue to rock Papua New Guinea after a magnitude-7.5 earthquake struck the country’s southern highlands, forcing ExxonMobile to shut its nearby gas conditioning plant due to fears of damage to the structure.

The quake hit in the early hours of this morning at a relatively shallow depth of 25 miles, with the epicenter was about 65 miles south-west of Mendi, the capital of Southern Highlands province, a town of more than 50,000 people.

2…………> Cult Of Personality: Mr.Xi Forever

China’s ruling Communist Party has proposed scrapping the ten-year term limit for the President, in a move almost certain to be written into the country’s constitution in March, a change that would allow President Xi Jinping to continue as head of state beyond 2023, and into “Communist Part Of Heaven” eternity.

Sydney academic Dr. Feng Chonygi says Mr. Xi has “much greater power than Vladimir Putin”, and certainly more than President Trump.


This would allow Mr.Xi to continue as both the head of state and Communist Party General Secretary beyond 2023, not forgetting his Chairmanship of the Central Military Commission, yet another title that does not have a term limit.

According to China’s state media, the Communist Party’s main leadership group — the Central Committee — proposed the amendment, along with writing Mr. Xi’s ideology into the country’s constitution. Can a Communist leader become a saint?

3…………> Elephant In China’s Store: Carl Vinson

Deep in the South China Sea the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, USS Carl Vinson, is sailing right through the red lines of the proposed South China Sea new sovereignty and dreams for world domination.

“It shows resolve, and gives decision space to our leaders,” the ship’s commanding officer, Captain Doug Verissimo, said.
“When they put a carrier strike group somewhere it helps to show that the United States is interested.
“We don’t have a lot of these, so when you put one in a certain area it has some influence.
“Of course it also gives our diplomats time and space to negotiate and make decisions, ultimately to try and prevent any type of armed conflict.”

The Carl Vinson, the flagship of a strike group from the US Third Fleet is shielded by a screen of distant guided missile cruisers and destroyers that form a protective “iron dome” around the aircraft carrier.


China has built airstrips and ports on reefs and shoals throughout the sea in defiance of a ruling from an international tribunal in the Hague.

“We want to keep laws and norms in place that we don’t change the map along the way, to avoid frictions,” Captain Verissimo said.

4…………> Turkcoin: National Cryptocurrency

Despite the condemnation of virtual currencies as un-Islamic because they cannot be audited and surveilled by Turkey’s Directorate of Religious Affairs, 
the country is contemplating its own national cryptocurrency called Turkcoin.

“The world is advancing toward a new digital system. Turkey should create its own digital system and currency before it’s too late,” a senior finance official warned.

5…………> Breaking The Law: Oakland Mayor

The mayor of Oakland Libby Schaaf issued a warning that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) could be conducting a raid in the area as soon as Sunday, a warning which she “learned from multiple credible sources” and intended “not to panic our residents but to protect them.”

Ms. Schaaf claimed she felt it was her “duty and moral obligation as Mayor to give those families fair warning when that threat appears imminent” as the feds detained at least four people during the weekend.

She joined other law enforcement officials in Northern California who would not cooperate with ICE, and noted state law “prohibits business owners from assisting ICE agents in immigration enforcement and bars federal agents from accessing employee-only areas.”

“It is no surprise that the bully in chief is continuing to try to intimidate our most vulnerable residents,” Schaaf said at the time. “We’re very clear that our values are to protect all of our residents regardless of where we come from. We want to protect families, not tear them apart.”

1…………> Enough Lies Wolffy: Wikileaks

The profitability and sales of Michael Wolff’s scathing book about United States President Donald Trump may have gotten a flat tire after WikiLeaks posted a link to a free online copy.

A delight to brainless “Trump Haters” who could not wait to drive another poison needle in their “Trump Doll”, trashy and clearly hostile “Fire and Fury” has not surprisingly become an instant best-seller, with hard copies sold out in many stores within an hour.

Mr Trump has begun legal action against the author, and now Wikileaks has posted a link on Twitter to a Google Drive document that appears to contain the entire manuscript, although it is unclear whether it is the final version that went to publication.

Many buyers are still unimpressed by the book.

“Not worth wasting your time reading this nonsense. Instead should of bought a box of chocolates,” wrote one.

“I found the writing difficult. There are too many grammatical errors and run-on sentences. Have your dictionary ready. He likes to show how smart he is by using pretentious words. I hoped this would be a fun read but after chapter one, I returned it for a refund,” said another.

2…………> An Angry Volcano: PNG

Following a warning call from authorities in Papua New Guinea 700 people have evacuated since the Kadovar Island volcano became active, fearing that a strong eruption could trigger a tsunami, even though it has not erupted for around 300 years.

“The volcano was blowing out ashes, very thick ashes … It started on Friday around 11 o’clock. The volcano smoke was very thick, and ashes were thrown out from the volcano. There was no actual lava but only thick ashes and smoke. If there wasn’t any initiative by boat, there would have been a very serious disaster,” local man said.

“They were also using small canoes, paddling across to Blup Blup. There was a banana boat but no engine.”

AG600, code named “Kunlong”, completed its maiden flight on Sunday. Designed to be the world’s largest amphibious aircraft, the AG600 will be mainly used for maritime rescue, fighting forest fires and marine monitoring.

4…………> Mighty Yuan: Get Ready

China’s foreign exchange reserves are in a good position to maintain stability in 2018, after the central bank announced the 11th consecutive monthly increase in Forex reserves, expanding to 3.14 trillion dollars in December, the highest since September 2016.
The central parity rate of the Chinese currency strengthened 83 basis points to 6.4832 against the U.S. dollar Monday, putting the yuan in its strongest position since May 2016.

“It was about better economic fundamentals, recovering exports and, more importantly, reduced pressure on capital outflows due to a turnabout in expectations for the yuan,” Shenwan Hongyuan Securities analysts Li Huiyong and Qiu Difan wrote in a research note.

China’s GDP expanded an annualized 6.9 percent in the first three quarters of 2017. Q3 was the ninth straight quarter of growth over 6.7 percent.
