I am trying to send this message to the White House. I say "trying" because I don't seem to have enough internet to tell Recaptcha that I am not a computer.

"Two years after the major terrorist event on January 6, 2021, only a handful of the insurrectionist rioters are behind bars. None of them will serve more than a decade behind bars. The violent white supremacist gangs that aided their self-radicalisation and gave them training are still active and have been terrorising BIPOC and LGBTQ People. The wealthy donors to extremist movements are still active and continue to boost both activities and messaging that endanger our democracy, even as our slide towards fascism turns into a steep, careening water slide.

"Merrick Garland is not the man for this job. He has proven in the past that he is talented at delivering pressers. Otherwise, his incompetence and refusal to take meaningful action against racially motivated terrorists in the States has allowed dangerous violent extremist groups to thrive.

"Please reconsider your choice for Attorney General. We need a person of action, not a presser specialist."

Currently livid and experiencing much psychosomatic pain, so posting this without comment.

"The suspect claimed last month that he was 'fired' from the University of Michigan 'after going through all the appeal processes for refusing to take experimental medication.'"

The Mali junta's rule has been characterized above all by two dramatic trend lines: an increase in violence and a decrease in security partners, despite the willingness of other partners to help. (The purported partnership with Wagner has only made security worse, not better.)

The military juntas in Mali and Burkina Faso continue to assert success against the militant Islamist groups. But this is false: Fatalities in the Sahel involving militant Islamist groups rose 63% under their watch last year, and their territories saw fully 90% of all militant Islamist attacks in the Sahel last year.

A similar pattern is unfolding in #BurkinaFaso where the first of two military #coups occurred in January 2022. The country subsequently experienced a 69-percent increase in militant Islamist-linked fatalities over the course of the year, totaling 3,600 deaths.

Our annual map of violence linked to militant Islamist groups in Africa is out!

Islamist violence in Africa surged by 22% over the past year (comprising 6,859 events). This represents a new record of extremist violence and reflects a near doubling in the number of such events since 2019.

I would LOVE for an expert to analyze the creation of fan art based on mass #killers. Images like these create concerning questions: what drives these artists to create such pieces, and what role do they play in the #radicalization of young people toward committing #violent acts?

In a Republican-dominated House, nothing will happen.

"In its final report, the Jan. 6 committee mostly avoided conclusions about how social media companies responded to insurrection and the weeks of extremist rhetoric leading up to it. Committee members punted the issue to Congress and asked oversight committees to 'continue to evaluate policies of media companies that have had the effect of radicalizing their consumers.'"

Three people were killed in Friday's attack, which took place at a Kurdish cultural centre and a restaurant.
The 69-year-old white male suspect said afterwards he was a racist who hated foreigners, a police source told AFP.
