The More The Democrats Try To Drag Trump Into The Swamp, The Deeper They Sink Themselves In It.

The whole mess created by the Democrats efforts to prevent Donald Trump and his administration form doing any government business, which is running alongside their futile efforts to keep the "Russia hack us and fixed the election" narrative alive and use it to bring about the impeachment and removal from office of Trump just gets more and more ridiculous.

Since the election there have been many idiotic attempts to overturn the result or plant false evidence to incriminate Turmp and members of his administration, from the risible demands for recounts, which were supposed to show Hillary Clinton had been cheated out of tens of thousands of votes but actually resulted in Trump GAINING votes to an absolutely pointless kerfuffle about the size of the inauguration day crown and currently to the Democrats outrage over Trump's claim that Obama's administration spied on him during the campaign.

The latter scandal has now turned around and spat in the Democrats' eye as evidence has emerged that security angencies, acting on orders from someone in the administration, was spying on Trump.

And all this has run in parallel with accusations (again not supported by evidence) that members of the Trump campaign, including the candidate himself collaborated with the Russians.

A few days ago we reported that former Obama aide Evelyn Farkas had outed Obama as having known about and been complicit in the digital surveillance of the Trump campaign. Now we have learned this:

Farkas first dropped the bombshell about the Obama administration's spying on Trump at a conference two weeks before the presidential election. The former Obama administration official predicted that if Donald Trump won the presidency he would “be impeached pretty quickly or somebody else would have to take over government,” according to Breitbart News.

The comments predicting Trump’s removal from office “pretty quickly” were made at the annual Warsaw Security Forum on October 26, 2016.

Asked at the event to comment on the priorities of a future Hillary Clinton administration, Farkas stated:

"It’s not a done deal, as you said. And so, to the Americans in the audience please vote. And not only vote but get everybody to vote. Because I really believe we need a landslide. We need an absolute repudiation of everything. All of the policies that Donald Trump has put out there. I am not afraid to be political. I am not hiding who I am rooting for. And I think it’s very important that we continue to press forward until election day and through election day to make sure that we have the right results.

I do agree however with General Breedlove that even if we have the wrong results from my perspective America is resilient. We have a lot of presidential historians who have put forward very coherent the argument – they have given us examples of all of our horrible presidents in the past and the fact that we have endured. And we do have a strong system of checks and balances. And actually, if Donald Trump were elected I believe he would be impeached pretty quickly or somebody else would have to take over government. And I am not even joking."

Farkas was referring to General Philip Breedlove, another panelist at the conference who served as Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) of NATO Allied Command Operations. The panel discussion was about what to expect following the Nov. 8 presidential election.

Farkas is also beingn scrutinized after remarks she made as a contributor on MSNBC on March 2 resurfaced last week when she admitted telling former Obama administration colleagues to collect intelligence on Trump and campaign officials.

Something Smelly About The Latest Syria Gas Attak Reports



“At least 58 people were killed in an alleged horrific gas attack in the Idlib Governorate this morning“, was the story that greeted us in Britain today as we staggered out of bed to make that life giving first cup of tea or coffee. And as usual with the worst atrocities of recent years, the news bulletins were featuring government spokespeople falling over their tongues in the rush to blame Syria's Assad regime and "The Russians," before investigations could be conducted and evidence to gathered.

Federica Mogherini, the Italian politician High Representative of the European Union (EU) for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, condemned the Syrian government stating that the “Assad regime bears responsibility for ‘awful’ Syria ‘chemical’ attack.”

This immediate accusation from a high ranking EU official follows the dangerous precedent set by none other than Barack Hussein Obama, who when news of Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 broke and the cocksucker president was on TV saying he had evidence Vladimir Putin was personally responsible almost before the stricken plane had hit the ground.

We have seen the same tactic with previous alleged gas attacks in Syria when US and NATO officials blamed Russia, citing fake evidence but later United Nations investigations suggested the gas had been fired from ground based artillery within areas of Sysia held by US sponsored rebels. The theory behind this tactic is where a narrative can be constructed before the truth surrounding the tragedy can emerge the public outcry can be managed to suit the political agenda of the US / NATO / EU military - industrial complex.

In this case Israeli President, Benjamin Netanyahu, joined in on the condemnation, as did Amnesty International. Unfortunately the public have been lied to so often by the politicians, bureaucrats and mainstream media, nobody believes anything that comes from them any more. And with good reason ...

Only hours after the alleged chemical weapons attack in Khan Sheikhun, supposedly by the Syrian government, the holes in the official narrative are beginning to emerge, discrediting the claims of Al-Qaeda affiliated White Helmets.

In the picture at the top of this article, White Helmets personnel are handling victims of the highly toxic gas (sarin, according to official sources) without sufficient safety gear, they have the wrong masks, no gloves and are wearing ordinary overalls rather than full body HAZMAT suits. Although this may seem insignificant, once we know how postent a nerve agent sarin gas is then the claim it was the chemical immediately looks ridiculous. The claim that in a densely populated area only 58 people died looks dodgy as well.

Within seconds of exposure to sarin, the affects of the gas begins to target the muscle and nervous system. If inhaled, tiny amounts of the gas can be fatal, but contact with exposed skin can be fatal too. Symptoms of contact with sarin can begin in minutes. When sarin is used in a concentrated area, the likleyhood is that thousands of people will be killed or mained. Yet, though dealing with one of the most dangerous substances in the world, the White Helmets are treating people exposed to the nerve agent with little concern for their exposed skin or inadequate masks. This has to raise questions around the credibility of the official story.

It also raises the question why a doctor in a hospital full of victims of sarin gas has the time to tweet and make video calls. This will probably be dismissed and forgotten however.

AGENT REFUSED OBAMA’S HUSH MONEY, REVEALED THE DEPTHS OF OBAMA & HILLARY’S TREASON

In testimony last year to the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, ICE Agent Taylor Johnson said she was stripped of her gun and badge without explanation after discovering fraud and abuse. She was then offered hush money in the amount of a severance package of $100,000 if she would just sign a non-disclosure agreement, a gagging order to keep her quet about corruption she had discovered, and quietly go away.


It looks like officials were taking kick backs and were cozying up to organized crime. Why am I not surprised? She said that during her investigation in 2013, she “discovered that EB-5 applicants from China, Russia, Pakistan and Malaysia had been approved in as little as 16 days” and that case files “lacked the basic and necessary law enforcement queries.” In other words, no one was vetted if they could pony up. Just imagine how many bad people have bypassed vetting in this way.


The Daily Caller reported that Johnson, who had worked at the DHS for more than a decade was investigating the United States Customs and Immigration Services (USCIS). More specifically, she was looking at a program called EB-5 that granted green cards to foreigners who invest $500,000 in the U.S, and discovered things that raised some red flags for her.

Agent Johnson, who had a brilliant career until she got on the wrong side of Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid by objecting to a visa program for foreign investors tied to the senator’s son — says she declined to take a $100,000 severance package because it included a non-disclosure agreement.


Despite all the media coverage of her case, including a Washington Gadfly report that the ICE press secretary with the approval of Breasseale was peddling confidential information to discredit her in violation of the Privacy Act, Taylor is not surprised she got the boot.


“My entire chain of command was appointed by Obama,” she remarked. “They can do anything they want.”


In testimony last June to the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Johnson said she was stripped of her gun and badge, without explanation, after discovering fraud and abuse.


“Some of the violations investigated surrounding the project included bank and wire fraud, and I discovered ties to organized crime and high-ranking politicians and they received promotions that appeared to facilitate the program,” Johnson testified.


She said that during her investigation in 2013, she “discovered that EB-5 applicants from China, Russia, Pakistan, Malaysia had been approved in as little as 16 days” and that case files “lacked the basic and necessary law enforcement queries.”

Former Obama Aide Evelyn Farkas’s Outs Obama, Deep State Spying On Trump


Though he initially tweeted, clumsily and imprecisely on the topic, the gist of Donald Trump's claim that Obama (or people following Obama's orders) had been spying on him, unsurprisingly, because it is becoming par for the course, President Trump was correct. The administration of his predecessor, Barack H. Obama, had indeed been surveilling Trump and those close to his campaign.

The aim of this illegal and unethical activity was to gain enough spinnable information to give the appearance of substance to the totally fabricated claims by a Clinton campaign that realised the presidency was slipping away from their unelectable candidate. 

In an article published by Town Hall, Jack Kerwick demonstrates how Democrat propaganda print web news organisations The New York Times, Slate, Mother Jones, and Heat Street, had confirmed months before it became an issue team Obama's surveillance efforts had been directed towards finding a way of linking Trump and his associates to corrupt business deals with Russia. However we now know it was Hillary Clinton and her cronies, through The Clinton Foundation (aka The Clinton Crime Syndicate) and Obama who had, while holding public office, benefitted financially from deals with Russian oligarchs.

Ostensibly, foreigners, specifically, Russians, were the subjects of the surveillance. But it is equally true that arrangements were made by those within Obama’s government—the so-called “Deep State” to illegally unmask and leak public information regarding those private citizens that allegedly got swept up in these spying operations.

For those still in denial about the corrupt nature of the Obama administration and The Clinton Foundation, Evelyn Farkas goes on to remove all doubt. Farkas was Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for “Russia/Ukraine/Eurasia,” in the Obama administration according to the official U.S. Department of Defense website. She left in 2015 to become an adviser to Hillary Clinton’s campaign. In March 2016 she appeared on MSNBC and made the following comments on Morning Joe:
 
“I was urging my former colleagues and, frankly speaking, people on the Hill…[to] get as much information as you can, as much intelligence as you can, before President Obama leaves the administration.”
Farkas admitted that she “had a fear that somehow that information would disappear with the senior people [from the Obama administration] who left.” She feared that it would disappear into the abyss of “the bureaucracy,” and “that the Trump folks, if they found out how we knew what we knew about…the Trump staff’s dealing with Russia, that they would try to compromise those sources and methods.”

There are several startling admissions remarks.

First, Farkas acknowledges that the Obama administration had in effect been gathering intelligence, or spying, on private citizens.

Second, being a Democrat partisan, Farkas’ intention in making these comments in the left-friendly venue of MSNBC, was to suggest that the Democrats’ “The Russians Made Us Do It (Lose)” narrative was more than just smoke and mirrors.

In the typical shyster - lawyer style of the Obama administration, Farkas never actually said that the intel offered any evidence of “collusion” between Putin or “the Russians” and Trump. Had there been anything there, she would have taken it up and run screaming to every Democrat friendly newpaper, TV news channel and radio station.

Third, Farkas does not mention any correspondence between Trump and “the Russians.” No, she instead vaguely references “Trump folks” and “the Trump staff” when talking about Russia. This is totally unlike Wikileaks (not connected with Trump but vehemently opposed to Clinton) leaking thousands of emails that proved disastrous for the Democrats campaign as they offered plenty of evidence of unethical activity (including conspiring to cheat Hillary's rival, Bernie sanders, out of the nomination,) corruption, illegal links with foreign governments and much worse.

Fourth, while Farkas obviously wanted the public to think that Obama’s goons discovered some nefarious connection between “Trump folks” and those dastardly Russians, the only allusion she makes is to the “dealings” that she alleges transpired. In other words the suggestion is deliberately vague to avoid anything that can be challenged.

Fifth, Farkas acknowledges that she worried about “the Trump folks” discovering “how we knew what we knew….” What reasonable person would not infer from such a statement that the “how” in question, the methods by which intelligence was supposedly gathered, consists of surveillance of the “Trump folks?” were somewhat less than ethical if not downright criminal.

Finally, Farkas talks about how the Trump administration would react when it found out “how we knew what we knew….” Who is this “we?” Farkas was no longer in the government after 2015 but her choice of words would have us think that she is still very much in the loop, collaborating with bureaucrats in the Deep State, i.e. civil servants who have no business taking an active role in election capaigns. Moreover, considering her position in the Obama administration, it is again reasonable to think that Farkas’ selection of the first person-plural in this context refers to Farkas and her fellow partisans that remain embedded in the bureaucracy over which her former boss presided.


Farkas has tried retreating from her comments. The left-leaning media has been busy with damage limitation. But the cat is out of the bag. The Deep State, under Obama, surveilled American citizens, in this case, Trump and his “folks.” They wanted any information that they had gathered that could be damaging to Trump to be as widely disseminated—leaked— as possible.

Russia Fears Possible US Preemptive Nuclear Attack

American Intelligence Services like to brand Russia, China, Iran or North Korea as the greatest threat to world peace, according to whichever new conflict they are trying to sell to the American public. This thirst in Washington and the boardrooms of defence contractors for endless war is actually the greatest threat to world peace, stability and security.

Russia fears a possible preemptive US nuclear attack on its territory. China and Iran resent constant American meddling in the politics of their regions and North Korea are just a bunch of crazy parnoiacs who pose no real threat to anybody except themselves.


According to Russia’s General Staff deputy head of operations Gen. Viktor Poznikhir,

“(t)he presence of American ABM sites in Europe and ABM-capable ships in the seas and oceans close to Russia’s territory creates a powerful clandestine potential for delivering a surprise nuclear missile strike against Russia.”

“The presence of the global ABM system lowers the threshold for the use of nuclear weapons, because it gives the US the illusion of impunity for using strategic offensive weapons from under the protection of the ABM ‘umbrella.’”

“The ABM shield is a symbol of the build-up of rocket forces in the world and a trigger for a new arms race.”

Since the Western-instigated Cold War began in the late 1940s, Washington and Pentagon defence 'experts' have believed Such insanity persists in Washington, and it is this plus the beliefs in American exceptionalism and US technological supremacy global security, threatening humanity more than ever with neocons at the Defence Department, The Pentagon and in the security agencies having closed ranks against President Trump and hamstrung all his early foreign policy initiatives to ensure business as usual under the new administration.

Intense hostility toward Russia in Washington erases the chances of sanity prevailing in regard to nuclear weapons and increases the unthinkable – mass annihilation from possible nuclear war.

In testimony before House Armed Services Committee members, CENTCOM, recently commander General Joseph Votel lied about Iran, calling the Islamic Republic “the greatest longterm threat to (Middle East) stability.”

America and Israel earned that dubious distinction long ago – threatening the region and world peace. Perhaps what Votel meant was that Iran is the biggest obstacle to America imposing puppet regimes throughout the middle east and using them to undermine Russia's security. Which is precisely what Obama tried to did by supporting ISIS and stating the US priority in the Syrian war was not to defeat the ISIS terrorists but to depose Assad.

22 killed, many 70 injured in Pakistan mosque explosion. Taliban claim responsibility.



Mainstream media tell us, in reporting which is of dubious quality to say the least, that the war is won in Syria, there is only mopping up left to do in Iraq and once again the western powers are firmly in control, while fighting still rages in Syria and Iraq, Kurdistan and yemen, a new trouble spot is igniting in the Muslim world.

At least 22 people were reportedly killed after an attack by a suicide bomber targeted a Shi'ite mosque in northwestern Pakistan. Dozens were injured in the blast, which has been claimed by the Sunni Muslim paramilitary group, The Taliban.

The attack took place in the city of Parachinar as people gathered for Friday prayers near the women's entrance of a Shiite mosque in the central bazaar, according to Reuters.

Local official Ikramullah Khan said at least 22 people were killed and 70 others injured. A medical source cited by AFP put the number of injured at 57, including women and children.

Parachinar parliamentarian Sajid Hussain, cited by Reuters, described the blast as a suicide attack, noting that gunfire preceded the explosion. A military rescue helicopter has been sent to the scene to help evacuate the injured, according to local authorities.

The nearby Agency Headquarters Hospital said it received dozens of injured seeking treatment, and made an appeal for blood donors. "Patients are being brought to us in private cars and ambulances and we have received over three dozen patients so far,” Mumtaz Hussain, a doctor at the hospital, told Reuters.

Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has condemned the attack, vowing that the government will continue efforts to “eliminate the menace of terrorism.”

Jamaat-ul-Ahrar (JuA), a faction of the Pakistani Taliban, claimed the attack in a message sent to AFP.

Parachinar is the capital of Kurram tribal region, a hotbed of the Pakistani security forces’ years-long battle against various militant groups. At least 21 people were killed there in a January vegetable market explosion.

US is like ‘armed robber breaking into your house’ – Iranian Government Official

 
 
Iran’s defense secretary, Hossein Dehqan, has warned the US navy it should leave the Persian Gulf and stop provoking Iran and its allies, Iranian media report. The Minister was responding to a US general who accused Iran of being a destabilizing force in the region. As we have reported previously the main destabilising force in the region is Saudi Arabia, Iran's traditional enemy.
 
“What are American military doing in the Persian Gulf? They had better get out of this region and not cause trouble for the countries in the region,” Dehqan said in a statement carried by Iranian state media on Thursday.

 He also compared the United States to a house burglar.

“Is it acceptable for an armed robber to enter your house and expect to get the red carpet treatment?
“This is an example of modern ignorance in the 21st century,” he said.

Dehqan’s was responding to remarks made earlier in March by United States Central Command General Joseph Votel, who accused Iran of being a destabilizing influence in the region.

“We are also dealing with a range of malign activities perpetrated by Iran and its proxies operating in the region,” Votel said at a hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee in describing Tehran’s alleged influence over Iraq and Syria.

Such statements from military officials on both sides signal growing tensions between Iran and the United States.

Musk Now Leading Contender For Misanthropic Megalomaniac Of The Millenium Title


Elon Musk's latest business misadventure is a company that aims to merge the human brain with computer networks. At best it will be an ignominious failure, at worst it will create a species of humandroids (Image source)

There's no doubt about it, Silicon Valley billionaires are the sickest, most inhuman bunch of shits on the planet. There's Googles semi - autistic twins Page and Brin who are developing software to control our minds, Bill Gates who wants to reduce the human population by 15% (for starters)and forcibly sterilise people through vaccination (Gates is not clear how that will work) in order to 'save the planet'. Zuckerberg wants to rule the world through Facebook and those guys at Apple, having proved that using slave labour is good business are working to spread the idea.

The sickest, control freakiest and probably the most deluded however is Elon Musk. This weirdo (he even looks weird - hell he even looks weird by the standards of Silicon Valley nerds). With his failing car company Tesla eating cash faster than a Great White Shark eats seals, his whacko plan to provide standby power for houses from a small, unobtrusive battery pack proving capable for powering the average home for a hour, his plan to provide backup power for the entire Australian state of South Australia was laughed at when the costs were found to be many times that of conventional power.

Elon's first big fuck up came when he invested in Halcyon Molecular Inc. which was a DNA-sequencing startup founded in 2008. Their goal was to unlock the biggest secrets hidden in DNA. The company wanted to sequence 100% of the human genome in less than 10 minutes for less than $100. Due to the many competing companies with the fastest and cheapest DNA sequencing technologies, and the commecially exploitable information in DNA falling way short of expectations, the company shut its doors in 2012.

Musk, like one of those cartoon characters whose tragedy is a total lack of self awareness, will keep pursuing impossible goals obessesed with the belief that the impossible is possible if you just throw enough science at it. His SpaceX vacations in space project using vehicles that, in common with SkyLab and the Space Shuttles will not actually be in space but in the thermosphere, the fourth layer of the atmosphere. Outside that is the exosphere, which must be negotiated before a space ship can honestly claim to be in space looks like being another expensive failure as Musk and his British rival to be the first space tourism billionaire discover there are problems related to putting humans in the outer layers of the atmosphere that NASA and the Russian Space Agency do not talk about.

Musk's craziest and sickest project to date however is his launch of a business that plans to develop devices that can be implanted in the human brain. After venturing into space exploration, electric cars and solar roofing, wannabe business magnate and visionary Musk (he is in fact an investor who made one very good investment and several which stink) wants to create gadgets that can link the human brain to computers so that AI and the brain can work hand in hand. The new company Neuralink Corp, launched this week is, according to the pitch for investment, the first step to realizing Musk’s desire to merge the human brain and computers.

According to The Wall Street Journal, the SpaceX and Tesla CEO’s new venture aims to produce devices that can be implanted to the human brain in order for artificial intelligence software to enhance brain activity, improving memory and allowing for a more direct interaction between the brain and electronic devices.

It has been reported thatMusk is assuming an “active role” in backing the neuroscience startup. Neuralink is registered as a medical research company in California with several high profile academics in the neuroscience field as members of its team.

Musk’s venture may not come as a surprise to people who follow the South African-born engineer as he progresses up the creepiness index to a position from which he can challenge Google's Dr. Evil wannabes. He has hinted several times that he plans to create a technology that could build a connection between the human brain and computers, as The Verge reports.

“Over time I think we will probably see a closer merger of biological intelligence and digital intelligence,” Musk recently said while speaking to a crowd in Dubai. “It’s mostly about the bandwidth, the speed of the connection between your brain and the digital version of yourself, particularly output.” It's worth remembering that a recent experiment concluded a computer would need several hours to process one minute of brain activity. And then there is the small problem that we have absolutely no idea how to convert computer data into the electrical pulses the brain fires along neurons in a way that would be meaningful to the brain. And until we have cracked that we are stuck with language, numbers and Boolean logic. So Musk's latest scheme is just another whacko non starter.

Last year, Musk also presented the idea of a neural lace, a device that would be surgically implanted to a human brain to allow connection between the nervous organ with computers. He has since been updating his followers on Twitter about the progress he’s been making with this project. In late January, when someone asked Musk if he is already set to announce neural lace to the public, he briefly responded, “Maybe next month.” But it appears Musk wasn’t ready to deliver the news to the world in February and with only hours remaining in March at the time of writing we have again heard nothing. One could be forgiven for thinking the idea is going the way of Google Glass. Now that the California startup is official, however, Musk will be able to share more information on the lack of development on his project to turn people into humandroids.

Time is NOT real: Physicists show EVERYTHING happens at the same time

The concept of time is simply an illusion made up of human memories, everything that has ever been and ever will be is happening RIGHT NOW. That is the theory according to a group of esteemed physicists who aim to solve one of the universe’s mysteries.
Most people do not even consider the concept of time but there is nothing in the laws of physics to state that it should move in the forward direction that we know. The laws of physics are symmetric ultimately meaning that time could have easily moved in a backward direction as it does forward. Indeed some adherents to the ‘big crunch’ theory say time WILL run backwards when the universe stops expanding and starts contracting back in on itself.

Robot revolution improves efficiency – but there's a price for human society

Since making a media debut in Fritz Lang’s cinema classic Metropolis, the idea that robots will replace humanity has obsessed the kind of scientists who make your average fruitcake look suitable fare for people with nut allergies. In the same way that computers with superhuman intelligence would surpass humans, it has been predicted with boring regularity that robots would replace their creators as more efficient and diligent exponents of human activity

And all three main political parties support it.

So where will this madness to replace us with machines end?

by Ian R Thorpe.As unemployment continues to rise a few people in all walks of life are starting to recognise that contrary to what we are constantly being told, the internet and technology in general is not a job creator but a job killer.

Wikileaks Reveal Obama Was Working For Saudis From Day 1

http://openmagazines.com/wikileaks-reveal-obama-agent-saudi-arabia/


The juiciest but most unsurprising (to many of us) discovery of the WikiLeaks dumps so far has not come from e-documents relating to the various Hillary Clinton / Democratic Party / Pizzagate scandals, though there have been many great ones, but from 2008 when the now notorious John Podesta served as co-chair of President-elect Barack Obama’s transition team. The email came from Michael Froman, a former Citibank executive, who secretly, and single-handedly (it appears,) built the entire Obama Administration of insiders, cronies and Saudi Arabia conntected business and academic types for the man who promised his would be the most open adminitration ever cabinet of what was supposed to be the "main street" President.

The email in question was even sent from Froman's Citibank email address (another effing amateur working for the Democrats) and includes "A list of African American, Latino and Asian American operatives, broken down by Cabinet/Deputy and Under/Assistant/Deputy Assistant level, plus a list of Native American, Arab/Muslim American and Disabled American candidates."

Apparently Obama wasn't as keen on placing women in senior-level positions (I think we all understand why Barry was not interested in filling his cabinet with women - if you catch my drift possums.) but Froman decided to offer up some suggestions anyway.

He wrote to the cocksucker president, "While you did not ask for this, I prepared and attached a similar document on women."
Froman even went ahead and "scoped out" which people should be appointed to which cabinet positions.

See the full listing at the bottom of this post at Open Magazines

Swedish Man Prosecuted for Assaulting Muslims with Bacon

28 March, 2017
A Swedish man has been arrested and charged with racism after being accused of eating bacon in proximity to a group of veiled Muslim women, and of calling them derogatory names.

The alleged offence occurred  in the Swedish capital of Stockholm last weekend. The Swede, who has not been named by media or the police, is said to have approached the women, who were identifiable as Muslims by the  Islamic headgear they were wearing, on a train while he was eating a bacon sandwich. He is alleged to have dangled the bacon in front of their faces, Swedish broadcaster SVT reports.

According to the report, the women moved to different seats but the bacon waving man followed. He is alleged to have called them derogatory names and made racist comments. Neither the police nor the public prosecutor has specified what was said during the incident.

The prosecutors allege he then used racial epithets on another woman in the train station after getting off the train. He faces charges of incitement to racial hatred.

Reaction to the incident on social media has been a mix of laughter and disbelief among English language users. Twitter user PeterSweden tweeted his disbelief at the charges saying: “What’s the next step, being racist for walking your dog?”

Dog are of course considered unclean animals by Islam and therefore are offensive to Muslims.
