Japanese football fans have been praised online after staying behind to clean up Wembley Stadium following their team’s historic 1–0 victory over England. After the win, Japanese supporters remained in the stands, collecting litter and tidying up the away section with bags before heading off, leaving everything spotless. In a world that’s lost its manners, the Japanese just showed the rest of us what real respect looks like. 🇯🇵 👏🏻

Ayaan Hirsi Ali - let’s talk a bit about her. She is one of the most courageous voices of our time. She was born in 1969 in Mogadishu, Somalia, into a strict Muslim family. As a young girl, she was subjected to female genital mutilation. She grew up between Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, and Kenya under a strict Islamic upbringing. In 1992, she fled to the Netherlands to escape an arranged marriage - she jumped off a train in Europe and applied for asylum. There, she learned Dutch, earned a degree in political science, and began working with integration. She lost her faith in Islam. She became an atheist, and later converted to Christianity in 2023. She saw clearly how Islam oppresses women - forced marriages, honor killings, female genital mutilation, polygamy, and the total lack of freedom. In 2004, she made the short film Submission together with Theo van Gogh. The film showed violence against women in Islam. Shortly after, Theo van Gogh was murdered in broad daylight in Amsterdam by a radical Muslim. A threat against Ayaan was left pinned to his chest: she was next. She received death threats for years. She had to live under police protection. She was elected to the Dutch parliament for the Liberal Party, where she fought for Muslim women’s rights and against the illusions of multiculturalism. She has written books such as Infidel, Nomad, and Heretic, where she directly criticizes the core of Islam - not just “extremism,” but the ideology itself. Today, she lives in the United States, married to historian Niall Ferguson, and continues her work, among other things through her foundation (AHA Foundation). She warns the West about mass immigration from Muslim countries, parallel societies, and the self-deception that claims Islam can be reformed without confronting its texts and history. Like Salman Rushdie, Ayaan Hirsi Ali has paid a high price for speaking the truth. Rushdie was hunted for a book. She was hunted for showing the reality of her own life and the lives of millions of Muslim women. She is not “Islamophobic.” She is a former Muslim who has seen the system from the inside and refuses to stay silent. She points to the uncomfortable truth: that Western values such as freedom of speech, gender equality, and individual liberty are incompatible with classical sharia Islam. Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a living example of why the Enlightenment is still worth defending. She risked her life to say what most people don’t dare: that the problem is not only “extremists,” but a religion that, at its core, oppresses women and rejects criticism. She deserves respect from all of us - not because she is “controversial,” but because she refuses to lie in order to be politically correct. In a time where many bow to threats, she continues to speak the truth. These are the kind of people who keep the soul of the West alive. Thank you Ayaan.❤️‍🔥🪽✝️

𝗙𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗛𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞: 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗕 𝗪𝗢𝗠𝗔𝗡 𝗪𝗛𝗢 𝗦𝗔𝗜𝗗 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗡𝗢𝗕𝗢𝗗𝗬 𝗪𝗔𝗦 𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗗 𝗧𝗢 𝗦𝗔𝗬 — 𝗢𝗡 𝗔𝗟 𝗝𝗔𝗭𝗘𝗘𝗥𝗔. In 2006, a Syrian-American psychiatrist named Wafa Sultan sat down on Al Jazeera and said something that sent a shockwave through the Arab world. Not a Western conservative. Not an Israeli spokesman. An Arab woman, raised Muslim, speaking in Arabic, on the most-watched Arabic television network on earth. She opened with a simple principle: 𝘉𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴, 𝘢𝘴 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘦. Believe what you want. But other people's beliefs are not your concern. Then she drew the contrast that made this clip travel around the world: The Jews came out of the Holocaust and forced the world to respect them — 𝗻𝗼𝘁 with terror, not with crying and yelling, but with work and knowledge. Fifteen million people scattered across the globe, producing the greatest scientific discoveries of the 19th and 20th centuries. United. Effective. Earned. Then the challenge, delivered directly: 𝘞𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘑𝘦𝘸 𝘣𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘩𝘪𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘶𝘱 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘎𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘵. 𝘞𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘑𝘦𝘸 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘺 𝘢 𝘤𝘩𝘶𝘳𝘤𝘩. 𝘞𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘑𝘦𝘸 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘣𝘺 𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦. Then the Buddha statues — the Taliban had just blown up the ancient Bamiyan Buddhas in Afghanistan. She noted: not a single Buddhist burned a mosque, k!lled a Muslim, or destroyed an embassy in response. Not one. Her conclusion was not an attack on a faith. It was a demand for accountability from a civilization: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘴 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢𝘴𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘥𝘰 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥, 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮. The host sat there with nothing to say. Wafa Sultan paid a price for that appearance. D∗ath threats. Exile. The full machinery of religious fury directed at a woman who had the audacity to hold a mirror up to her own civilization. She looked anyway. This clip is almost twenty years old. Watch it and ask yourself how much of what she said has changed — and how much of it explains everything happening right now, as a regime that spent 47 years exporting exactly that violence finally faces the consequences.

Silence is my byword for the next 8 days. Just became widowed at 1:45pm today and I’m taking myself away from social media for now.

Thirty years ago today, sixteen young pupils and their teacher were lost in an act of senseless violence that shocked Scotland and the entire United Kingdom. Our thoughts remain with the families who carry this loss every day, and with the community of Dunblane, whose strength and unity in the face of unimaginable grief became a symbol of resilience for our nation.
