Michigan Muslim Mayor Says He’s ‘Not in the Mood’ for Christmas if Bombs Are Falling in Gaza.

Dearborn mayor Abdullah Hammoud said residents – including himself – were “not in the mood” at this year’s city Christmas tree lighting, adding “Not when bombs are dropping in Gaza.” The Muslim mayor claimed growing concerns about Islamophobia were also to blame for the unusually somber event.

“In this community, right now there is a lot of grief, anger and fear,” Mayor Hammoud said in an interview with the New York Times. “You can’t help but be anxious when the whole city tells you that they stay up every night following the news, trying to understand how much more death and destruction is happening.”

He added, “This is personal for me. And it is personal for a great majority of my city.”

While Hammoud has tried to cast himself and city residents in a more sympathetic light following Hamas’s barbaric October 7th terrorist attack against Israel, he and some Dearborn residents have a long track record of promoting antisemitism and violence against Jews.

Hammoud, known for his staunch anti-Israel positions, excused the Hamas terror attack on the Jewish state “inevitable.” In a 2021 social media post, the Dearborn mayor used – in a positive manner – the phrase “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” which many interpret as a call for the Palestinian conquest and eradication of Israel.

The National Pulse previously reported Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), whose district includes Dearborn, was a member of a secret Facebook group in which members praised Hamas and acts of terrorism against Jews – some embers also engaged in conspiracies denying the Holocaust.

While Hammoud laments a perceived rise in Islamophobia, in reality it is anti-Semitism that is on the steep rise – especially among Michigan’s Muslim community. According to government data, nearly half of the religion-oriented hate crimes in 2022 were directed at Jews in America.

Paris Terror Suspect Declared ISIS Support, Was Jailed in 2016 for Terror Offenses, But French Govt Says He Has ‘Psychiatric Disorders’.

The main suspect in Saturday’s terror attack in Paris has been named as Arman Rajabpour-Miyandoab, who was imprisoned for terror-related offenses in France in 2016, and has been in contact with multiple other Islamic terrorists, according to reports.

Rajabpour-Miyandoab, a 26-year-old French national of Iranian descent, killed one and injured another two as he screamed “Allah-hu Akbar!” this weekend. He was previously jailed for plotting a terrorist attack in the Paris’ business district of La Defense in 2016. He received a four-year sentence and lived with his parents after his release.

The suspect released a video shortly before the attack in which he declared himself a supporter of ISIS and pledged his allegiance to Caliph Abu Hafs, leader of the “Islamic State” terror faction. Rajabpour-Miyandoab confessed to launching the attack to “avenge Muslims” and said he could not watch “Arabs being killed in Afghanistan and Palestine.”

French Interior Minister Gerald Darmian told the press, “He is known to the intelligence and justice services… He had already wanted to carry out violent action but had been arrested before being able to do it.”

“He is being monitored as a person with very significant psychiatric disorders. He was also under psychiatric and neurological treatment,” Darmian added.

Before his imprisonment, Rajabpour-Miyandoab was reportedly in contact with jihadist fighters who had traveled to Syria to fight for ISIS. He allegedly also communicated with Abdoullakh Anzorov, who was responsible for beheading French teacher Samuel Paty in 2020.

WATCH: Bay Area Council Erupts Into Outpouring of Hamas Support and BlueAnon Conspiracies.

A meeting of the Oakland City Council in San Francisco’s Bay Area played host to an outpouring of “progressive” Hamas support, with attendees even claiming the Palestinian group’s October 7th terror attack was actually secretly conducted by the Israeli Defense Forces.

The bizarre supercut of the meeting on Monday night, below, includes those wanting to condemn Hamas being labeled “old white fascists.”

An amendment to condemn Hamas, introduced by left-wing Democrat Dan Kalb, failed by six votes to two, while the resolution to call for a ceasefire passed by eight votes to nothing, on the 100 percent Democrat-controlled council.

‘I’m Disappointed in Myself’ – Biden Issues Groveling Apology to Muslims in Private Meeting.

President Joe Biden reportedly apologized to a group of Muslim Americans in a private meeting after he cast doubt on the Gaza death toll figures released by Hamas-controlled health authorities.

“I’m sorry. I’m disappointed in myself,” he allegedly told a group of approximately 20 activists and officials who asked to meet with him. “I will do better,” he added, according to the Washington Post.

Previously, the 81-year-old Democrat had expressed skepticism, stating: “I have no notion that the Palestinians are telling the truth about how many people are killed.”

Included in the discussion with Biden were Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, Chicago community organizer Rami Nashashibi, Imam Mohamed Magid, Muslim lobbyist Wa’el Alzayat, and healthcare advocate Suzanne Barakat.

Biden is said to have ended the hour-long discussion, originally scheduled for 30 minutes, by hugging one of the participants.

Dutch Populist Geert Wilders Says Relocate Palestinians to Jordan.

Geert Wilders, leader of the Netherlands’ Party for Freedom (PVV), has proposed relocating Palestinians to neighboring Jordan. Multiple Arab states including Jordan, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, and Yemen, as well as the Palestinian Authority and Hamas, have condemned the populist, whose party just came first in the Dutch elections.

The Palestinian Authority, which governs the West Bank, branded the suggestion “blatant interference in their affairs,” while Jordan’s officials claim would undermine the rights of the Palestinian people and their pursuit for an independent state.

Wilders’s position is that “Jordan is Palestine.” This refers to the fact its territory was administered by the British Mandate of Palestine before being established as the Emirate of Transjordan.

“There has been an independent Palestinian state since 1946: the Kingdom of Jordan,” he wrote on X (Twitter) in October. “Jordan is Palestine. Palestinian people should be given the right to voluntarily settle in Jordan and freely elect their own government. Let the Hashemite Kingdom become a true democracy!”

The King of Jordan has vowed he will not even take Gazan refugees, however. His allies in Egypt have suggested any Gazans displaced to Arab countries will be sent to Europe.

NATO Chief Says Ukraine Will Join Alliance After War.

Ukraine will join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) military alliance, according to Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg – but only after the nation’s war with Russia is over.

“Allies agree that Ukraine will become a member of NATO. At [the NATO-Ukraine] meeting, we will agree recommendations for [Ukrainian reforms], as we continue to support Kiev on this path to NATO membership,” he said.

The comments by Stoltenberg, a former Prime Minister of Norway, may be premature. Many NATO members, particularly Hungary and Turkey, seem unlikely to approve Ukrainian membership. It is also unclear whether Donald Trump would do so if he wins the next U.S. election, which currently appears likely.

On the question of Ukraine joining the European Union, Hungarian leader Viktor Orban has suggested the proposal is untenable. Many of his arguments against Ukraine joining the EU, such as the fact its territory is uncertain, also apply to the country joining NATO.

If it did, it would immediately full under the alliance’s mutual defense clause, meaning further conflict with Russia, a nuclear power, would immediately draw in all NATO member-states, including America and nuclear-armed Britain and France.

Iranian-Backed Rebels Fire Missiles At U.S. Warship.

Houthi rebels in Yemen, backed by the Islamic Republic of Iran, fired at least two ballistic missiles at the USS Mason, a guided-missile destroyer operating in the Gulf of Aden, and a nearby commercial tanker ship. The USS Mason is operating as part of a U.S. Navy task-force in the region had early intercepted the Central Park, a tanker ship which had been hijacked by Houthi rebels. Upon intercept, the Houthi rebels abandoned the Central Park and attempted to flee by speed boat but were captured by the U.S. Navy.

According to a statement from U.S. Central Command, the naval task-force in the Gulf of Aden received a distress call from the Central Park and “[u]pon arrival, coalition elements demanded release of the vessel. Subsequently, five armed individuals debarked the ship and attempted to flee via their small boat.”

Central Command said the USS Mason pursued the hijackers, with the Houthi rebels eventually surrendering. Several hours later, however,  “….two ballistic missiles were fired from Houthi controlled areas in Yemen toward the general location of the [USS Mason] and [the Central Park]…  The missiles landed in the Gulf of Aden approximately ten nautical miles from the ships.” According to the statement neither ship was damaged by the missile attack and no sailors reported injuries.

The missile attack on the USS Mason and the Central Park mark the latest escalation in aggression by the Iranian-backed Houthis. In mid-October, Houthi rebels fired cruise missiles from Yemen towards Israel which were subsequently intercepted by the USS Carney, a guided-missile destroyer in the Red Sea. Cruise missiles were again fired from Yemen in mid-November and were intercepted by Israel’s own missile defense system.

BREAKING: Tommy Robinson BANNED FROM LONDON By Cops Who Let Muslim Migrants Call for Jewish Genocide.

Anti-grooming activist turned citizen journalist Tommy Robinson has reportedly been banned from entering his nation’s capital city — London — following his bizarre arrest while attempting to report, sympathetically, from the city’s March Against Anti-Semitism.

Robinson was detained by a huge team of Metropolitan Police officers on Sunday, who were filmed dragging him from the protest while simultaneously pepper-spraying him. They claimed that march organizers had expressed “concerns” Robinson’s presence would “cause fear” and said “he was spoken to and warned on more than one occasion that his continued presence in the area was likely to cause harassment, alarm and distress to others.” He was then arrested for refusing to leave.

Robinson was released from custody on Monday, and confirmed to The National Pulse that he has been charged with refusing to comply with a dispersal order. He says the Metropolitan Police’s leadership initially wanted to remand him in custody until his court appearance in January. His bail conditions include a requirement to stay away from London, effectively banning him from travelling anywhere inside the M25 motorway which surrounds the capital. He denounced the move as a “blatant abuse of my human rights.”

During his arrest, Robinson said he was covering the march in his capacity as a journalist, and asked the crowds nearby if he was causing any alarm, prompting cries of “No!” and “Leave him alone!”

Robinson’s treatment has intensified accusations of two-tier policing in the British capital. The police have backed anti-Israel protestor’s right to chant “from the river to the sea” – a call to destroy Israel – and rally openly for jihad.

They have also refused to arrest anti-Israel activists desecrating national war memorials, claiming trampling monuments to fallen soldiers is not against the law. Observers have pointed out such behavior actually violates several common law and statutory offenses, suggesting police did not act because they did not want to.

Anti-Israel Protesters Shut Down Manhattan Bridge.

Over 1,000 anti-Israel demonstrators disrupted traffic on the Manhattan Bridge on Sunday afternoon, as thousands attempted to return home from Thanksgiving celebrations. The New York Police Department (NYPD) reported that protesters demanding a ceasefire in Gaza shut down bridge traffic around 3:30 p.m, chanting: “Ceasefire, not genocide! President Biden pick a side!”

At 5:45 p.m., the NYPD reopened the bridge but advised motorists to anticipate traffic and potential delays. At least one woman and two men were arrested during the demonstration. The NYPD stated that the word “Gaza” was graffitied onto a supporting beam of the bridge. It is unclear whether the vandal was among those detained.

The Gaza conflict started on Oct 7th, after the Hamas terror organization launched a large-scale raid on Israel, killing around 1,200 and kidnapping hundreds of hostages. A temporary ceasefire, in return for the release of 50 hostages held by Hamas, was established on Wednesday, promising to extend for a minimum of four days and possibly more, depending on further hostage releases.

U.S. & Germany Push Zelensky To Negotiate, Ceding Territory to Russia.

The U.S. and German governments now believe the Ukrainian military is incapable of retaking territory lost to Russia in the course of the latter’s invasion.  According to the German news outlet BILD, the two governments hope Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will come to realize the need for negotiations with Russia. A German government source told the outlet, “Zelensky should come to the realization that things cannot go on like this.”

The failure of Ukraine’s counter-offensive has left U.S. and German officials concluding additional weapons shipments to the country should only be in quantities needed to hold the war front and prevent further Russian territorial gains. “He should address his nation of his own free will and explain that negotiations need to be carried out,” the government source said.

Earlier this month The National Pulse reported General Valery Zaluzhny, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), conceded Ukraine’s long-anticipated counter-offensive has “most likely” failed, with his men having advanced only a little over ten miles in months. Zaluzhny said an “attritional trench war” could “wear down the Ukrainian state,” and aides to President Volodymyr Zelensky have already expressed concern over the average age of a Ukrainian soldier having risen to 43 – especially as these middle-aged fighters “aren’t that healthy”.

Zelensky has continued to push Western governments for more lethal aid in his country’s conflict with Russia. In early November, Zelensky extended an invitation to former President Donald Trump — the 2024 U.S. presidential front runner — to visit Ukraine for a briefing on why the war must continue.
