The Week In News

Terror in Vienna

In what is the worst terror attack to have been perpetrated on Viennese soil, at least four people were killed and 22 others were wounded on Monday evening in the Austrian capital by at least one masked gunman.

The first shots were fired near a synagogue, although it’s unclear if the synagogue was targeted. The gunman, Kujtim Fejzulaj, then opened fire in five other places in the downtown area.

He was killed by officers.

The terrorist was armed with an assault rifle, among other handguns, and appeared to wear an explosive vest which turned out to be a dummy.

“We are currently experiencing difficult hours in our republic. I would like to thank all the emergency services who are risking their lives, especially today, for our safety. Our police will take decisive action against the perpetrators of this vile terrorist attack,” Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz said via Twitter. “I am glad that our police officers have already been able to neutralize a perpetrator. We will never allow ourselves to be intimidated by terrorism and will fight these attacks resolutely by all means.”

All synagogues, kosher restaurants and Jewish supermarkets were set to stay closed across Austria on Tuesday. Children in the city were advised to stay home from schools, although schools were open.

Fejzulaj, 20, was a dual citizen of Austria and North Macedonia. He had been previously jailed for attempting to travel to Syria. He had been sentenced to 22 months in prison in August 2019 but was released early because of his age.

Fejzulaj was reportedly being monitored by security services but was not considered capable of mounting a domestic attack.

According to German daily newspaper Bild, the terrorist is reported to have posted on Instagram announcing his intentions before the attack. It published a picture showing Fejzulaj brandishing a pistol, an assault rifle, and a machete while wearing a black t-shirt and beanie.

He is reported to have pledged allegiance to ISIS.

ISIS recently called on jihadis to “spill the blood of Crusaders” in “revenge” over cartoons of the Prophet Muhammed, which have seen mass protests and calls of boycotts of French goods in many Muslim nations.

The bloodbath in Vienna comes after France was hit by two horrifying terror attacks by Islamic terrorists with three people murdered in Nice and a school teacher beheaded in Paris.

Fatalities in Turkish Earthquake

Friday’s earthquake in Turkey left 91 people dead and 994 people injured.

The magnitude 7.0 blast struck the Aegean Sea before the weekend, shaking parts of Greece and Turkey. Because it struck at a relatively shallow depth of 13 miles, the impact was felt forcefully at ground level near the epicenter.

More than 20 buildings were seriously damaged in Izmir by the tremor.

On Monday morning, more than 65 hours after the quake struck, a 3-year-old girl was found alive buried in the wreckage of her apartment building.

Elif Perincek was found after a firefighter searched for her in the debris near her dresser. She held onto his finger as he brought her to safety.

Perincek’s mother and two siblings were rescued earlier. One of

her other siblings had, unfortunately, died in the blast.

Hours before Perincek was rescued, another child, 14-year-old Idil Sirin, was also found alive after spending more than 58 hours trapped in a collapsed building.

More than 900 aftershocks have been registered since the initial quake, 42 of them with a magnitude over 4.0, Turkey’s disaster agency said. The earthquake also triggered what authorities called a “mini tsunami,” causing streets to flood Friday in parts of Turkey’s wider Izmir province, as well as on Samos. Testing All in Liverpool

Every person living or working in the British city of Liverpool will be tested for Covid-19 as part of a trial program starting this week. The testing will be done regardless of if people are experiencing symptoms or not.

Results will be made available within an hour.

“[T]hese more advanced tests will help identify infectious individuals who are not displaying symptoms…. so they can self-isolate and prevent the virus from spreading,” the nation’s Department of Health stated in the release.

Liverpool, which has nearly 500,000 residents, has had one of the highest infection rates in England. More than 410 cases per 100,000

people have been reported.

Testing in the city is set to serve as an example of how the United Kingdom may be able to implement largescale testing. Several testing sites will be set up across the city.

The U.K. currently has 1,057,021 Covid-19 cases. There have been 46,943 total deaths due to the coronavirus.

3 Killed in Nice Attack

On Thursday, a Tunisian 21-yearold entered a church in Nice, France, and slaughtered three people.

Brahim Aouissaoui had entered France from Italy on October 9. He had come from the Mediterranean island of Lampedusa less than a month before. His birthplace was Tunisia.

When the terrorist committed the brutal attack, he was carrying a copy of the Koran along with his knife.

Police managed to arrest Aouissaoui.

The attack in Nice was the third attack in two months in France that authorities have said have been perpetrated by Muslim extremists and come amid outrage by Muslims over the portrayal of their prophet Muhammed in cartoons in the Charlie Hebdo newspaper.

A 60-year-old woman, Nadine Devillers, was killed in Thursday’s attack. A 55-year-old man, Vincent Loques, who took care of the church, was slaughtered as well. The third victim, a 44-year-old woman, Simone Barreto Silva, managed to flee with her bleeding wounds but died at a nearby restaurant.

France’s national police chief had ordered increased security at churches and mosques earlier in the week, but no police appeared to be guarding the Nice church when it was attacked.

“He cried, ‘Allah Akbar!’ over and over, even after he was injured,” said Nice Mayor Christian Estrosi. “The meaning of his gesture left no doubt.”

“With the attack against Samuel Paty, it was freedom of speech that was targeted,” Prime Minister Jean Castex told lawmakers, referring to the teacher who was beheaded after showing his class caricatures of the prophet during a civics lesson. “With this attack in Nice, it is freedom of religion.”

“Very clearly, it is France which is under attack,” President Emmanuel Macron said as he stood before the church. He added that all of France

Malaysian Leader Supports Terror

On Thursday, after a deadly attack in Nice, Malaysia’s former leader Mahathir Mohamad tweeted that Muslims had a right “to kill millions of French people.” Due to swift and vociferous anger to his post, Mahathir eventually deleted his statement.

Three people were killed at a church in the southern French city on Thursday, with the attacker slitting the throat of at least one of them, in what authorities were treating as the latest jihadist assault to rock the country.

Shortly after the horrific attack, Mahathir unleashed a series of tweets. In one of the tweets, he referred to the beheading of a French teacher earlier in the month and said that, although he did not approve of that attack, freedom of expression does not include “insulting other people.” The teacher, Samuel Paty, had shown students cartoons of Islam’s prophet Mohammed.

“Irrespective of the religion professed, angry people kill,” said the 95-year-old. “The French in the course of their history has killed millions of people. Many were Muslims. Muslims have a right to be angry and to kill millions of French people for the massacres of the past.”

He added that “by and large the Muslims have not applied the ‘eye for an eye’ law. Muslims don’t. The French shouldn’t.”

This is not the first time that Mahathir has spewed hate. He has called Jews “hooked-nosed” and said that they “rule this world by proxy,” likening them to Nazis. He has repeatedly defended his right to make those remarks and said he is “glad to

be labeled anti-Semitic.”

Mahathir, who served as the Malaysian premier twice for a total of 24 years, said that French President Emmanuel Macron was “not showing that he is civilized,” adding he was “very primitive.”

“The French should teach their people to respect other people’s feelings. Since you have blamed all Muslims and the Muslims’ religion for what was done by one angry person, the Muslims have a right to punish the French. The boycott cannot compensate the wrongs committed by the French all these years,” he wrote.

“In Malaysia, where there are people of many different races and religions, we have avoided serious conflicts between races because we are conscious of the need to be sensitive to the sensitivities of others.”

Mahathir had led the Muslim-majority country for two decades before his government’s collapse in February.

Smelly Feet Socks

Scientists in Thailand say that they have developed a sock that can cure smelly feet.

The socks have a special coating made from zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) which can prevent foot odor and bacterial infection.

The coated socks were used by 148 cadets by researchers at Siriraj

Many soldiers and athletes are prone to suffer from pitted keratolysis, a condition when bacteria consume the keratin on the soles of the feet and give off an odor.

The cadets that received the special coated socks to wear for 14 days had significantly less foot odor than those who wore regular socks and were less prone to pitted keratolysis.

The findings are being presented at the 29th European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Congress.

Corbyn Pushed Out

Jeremy Corbyn is being held accountable for his anti-Semitic views.

Last week, Britain’s main opposition Labour party suspended its former leader following his response to a government watchdog report that said the party had broken equality laws in its handling of anti-Semitism complaints.

“In light of his comments made today and his failure to retract them subsequently, the Labour Party has suspended Jeremy Corbyn pending investigation,” the party announced.

Labour’s new leader Sir Keir Starmer said the report, which found Labour under Corbyn engaged in unlawful “harassment and discrimination,” marked a “day of shame” for the party. The party said Corbyn, its leader until April, was being suspended pending further investigation.

Corbyn vowed to “strongly contest” the party’s decision, labeling it a “political” move. For now, he will be compelled to sit as an independent MP in the House of Commons.

In a Facebook post earlier in the day responding to the report, Corbyn said he didn’t accept all of its findings and asserted that “the scale of the problem was also dramatically overstated for political reasons by our opponents inside and outside the party, as well as by much of the media.”

“The equality body’s analysis points to a culture within the party which, at best, did not do enough to prevent anti-Semitism and, at worst, could be seen to accept it,” the quality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) said in a statement.

The watchdog found the party responsible for unlawful acts in three major areas: political interference in anti-Semitism complaints, failing to provide adequate training to those handling anti-Semitism complaints, and harassment.

There were 23 instances of “inappropriate involvement” by Corbyn’s office and others in the 70 files examined in the report, the EHRC said, with interference happening more frequently in complaints of anti-Semitism than in other discrimination allegations.

Starmer – who replaced Corbyn in a party election in April, after it lost last December’s general elections in a landslide to the incumbent Conservative party under Boris Johnson – has said he would fully cooperate with the EHRC’s report on anti-Semitism in the party.

British Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, who had discouraged voters from supporting Labour under Corbyn in last year’s elections, said the report marked a “historic nadir for the Labour Party.”

Jewish groups have accused Corbyn, a far-left politician, of allowing a massive surge in anti-Semitism within the ranks of the party that was once considered the natural home of British Jewry. Thousands of cases of alleged hate speech against Jews had been recorded within Labour since 2015, when Corbyn was elected to lead the party.

Corbyn had vowed to punish any party member caught making racist statements, yet he defended a number of members who made vitriolic anti-Semitic remarks, and expelled hardly any members despite more than 850 formal complaints.

For many, it seemed that Corbyn himself was the problem. Last

year, he expressed regret for having defended a 2012 anti-Semitic mural in London’s East End. The mural, named Freedom of Humanity, was painted on a property near Brick Lane by the Los Angeles-based graffiti artist Kalen Ockerman. It depicted a group of men – seemingly caricatures of Jewish bankers and businessmen – counting their money on a Monopoly board balanced on the backs of unclothed workers.

Last year, Corbyn was found to have authored a glowing foreword to a book that claims that Jews control global financial systems and describes them as “men of a single and peculiar race.”

In addition, the Hamas terror group had thanked Corbyn for his solidarity in recognizing Palestinian mourning over the 71st anniversary of the formation of the State of Israel.

Van Gogh’s Delirium

GRAND OPENING WEEK Sale-Brati November 8th- 13th

According to researchers, it is likely that artist Van Gogh experienced “delirium” caused by alcohol withdrawal.

In order to investigate the artist’s possible psychiatric disorders, experts interviewed art historians familiar with 902 letters from the artist – 820 to his brother, Theo – and studied medical records made by doctors who treated him.

The Dutch master, who produced some 900 paintings during his lifetime, died by his own hand in 1890 at the age of 37 following years of mental illness.

He is thought to have suffered from a combination of bipolar and borderline personality disorder, although these illnesses were never diagnosed.

Researchers from The University Medical Center Groningen, in the Netherlands, say that they believe Van Gogh experienced two brief psychotic episodes, presumed to be delirium caused by alcohol withdrawal, following his admission to

hospital after cutting off his own ear with a razor in 1888.

Researchers say that the Dutch master experienced several severe depressive episodes in the last year of his life – at least one with psychotic features.

In the study, published Monday in the International Journal of Bipolar Disorders, researchers say that the artist’s likely “masked epilepsy,” also known as “focal epilepsy,” could have led to differing manifestations of anxiety, delusions and hallucinations. In Van Gogh’s case, it could have been caused as a result of brain damage linked to his alcohol abuse, malnutrition, poor sleep, and mental exhaustion.

Because researchers cannot speak with Van Gogh directly, they relied on letters to his family, which may or may not have downplayed or embellished his symptoms. As such, their theories are mainly just that – theories.

Saudi Arrested for Stabbing

Amid tensions in France, on Thursday, a Saudi man stabbed and wounded a guard at the French consulate in the city of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. Authorities arrested the man, who they said stabbed the guard with a “sharp tool.”

France urged its citizens in the
