Wednesday Links And A Video

First up, this video was posted on YouTube yesterday by Stefan Molyneux.  He interviews British political activist Tommy Robinson on his recent visit to Poland.  Among Robinson's points are western media mischaracterization of a march in Warsaw which he observed, and how Polish people who disagree with Robinson were willing to talk with him in a civilized manner, unlike such people back in the United Kingdom.  It's over 40 minutes long, so if you want to watch all of it, give yourselves some time.

You can also watch the video directly on YouTube.

Now for the links:

From Gatestone Institute, in France, it's out with the Jews, in with the Muslims.

From Seeker, in Iraq, some archaeological discoveries were made just before the recent earthquake.  (via Assyrian International News Agency)

From the Daily Mail, Italy defends its policy of blocking migrants in Libya.  (Defending your own country against illegal incursions?  Like governments are supposed to?)

From The Daily Signal, nine suggestions for a better NAFTA.

From LifeNews, an appeals court allows Arkansas to not fund Planned Parenthood.  (No matter what you think of them, Planned Avoidance Of Parenthood is a private organization, and as such has absolutely ZERO right to receive so much as one cent from the Arkansan taxpayer.)

From News(dot)com(dot)au, a possibly habitable exoplanet has been found, and it's getting closer to us.  (via the New York Post)

From Voice Of Europe, the Netherlands has endured an outbreak of carbeques.

From the Express, French President Emmanuel Macron loses party members due to his alleged "cult of personality".

From The Local FR, Macron unveils his plan to improve life in French suburbs.

From Russia Today, the E.U. insists upon telling Poland how to run their own country.

From Euractive, Polish Prime Minister Beata Szydło says that there won't be a Polexit.  (I have to go to my computer's Character Map program to type the letter "ł", but due to my own Polish heritage, I feel an obligation to correctly type Polish names.)

From the NL Times, according to a Dutch minister, Pegida is becoming smaller but more radical.

From The Old Continent, the Swiss feel more like being Swiss.

From The Washington Post, Burmese villagers recall violence by Rohingya Muslims.

From The American Spectator, the Ohio chapter of CAIR lobbies Ohio legislators.

From ABC News (where "A" stands for "Australian"), an Australian woman will be tried for allegedly supporting ISIS.  (The last three links were found at The Religion Of Peace.)

From National Review, Democratic sex offenders are having "a convenient reckoning".

From FrontpageMag, "the rule of law is back."

From Townhall, Roy Moore's lawyer opens mouth and inserts foot.

From Politico, Moore (R) trails Jones (D) by double digits.  (via HotAir)

From (rather than via) HotAir, there's a movement to de-genderize the Romance languages.  (This will be very tricky since most of them, such as the French that I once studied, have no neuter gender.  Even with inanimate objects, there is no "it", only "he" or "she".)

From The Guardian, North Korea sentences President Trump to death for insulting Kim Jong-un.  (If the United States had that kind of policy, there would be none of us left.)

From the New York Post, the Pope will not be driving his new Lamborghini, but will auction it off for charity.

And from BGR, there's a strange triangle on Mars.
