Brescia imam: “In our Islam, after age 9, a girl becomes a woman.”

An “Italian” imam named Ali Kashif went on TV and announced that girls who have reached nine years of age may be considered women, and are appropriate marriage material. The Italian government reacted in an sensible manner and expelled him from the country, putting him on a flight to his native Pakistan.

These words, spoken by the Brescia imam Ali Kashif into the microphones of the program “Out of the box”, have earned him expulsion from the country. It was the Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi who made the notification.

Subsequent to the expulsion order, he was placed on a flight from Milan’s Malpensa Airport and sent back to his country of origin.”Originally from Pakistan, Kashif had emphasized the legitimacy, according to the Koran, of marriage with young girls: “

The Islamic religion says that if the parents are happy and both are in agreement, they can marry even at the age of 9. In our Islam, after 9 years, a girl becomes an adult. In the Koran, it says that it can be done.”

The order was carried out by the police headquarters of Brescia on the instruction of the Ministry of Interior, which made the decision, citing reasons of security, the lack of a residence permit of the person in question, and his incompatibility with constitutional values.

From Fratelli d’Italia [Brothers of Italy, the party of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni], Member of Parliament Riccardo De Corato expressed “full support for the measure” in the face of “very serious statements”, to which the State must react “with firmness and without any hesitation”. And he added:

“Whoever thinks they can, in our country, justify barbaric practices, contrary to the dignity of the individual, the rights of minors, and fundamental principles of our legal system, needs to know that in Italy there is no room for fanaticism, for extremism, and for whoever disseminates messages incompatible with our legal system.

The scenario I drew does not involve the court saying the accused is not guilty. In law it does happen that a person is discharged without being declared innocent. This happens on technicalities.

Its alright. I see you will keep dodging. Enjoy.

So because Trump tipped a delivery guy, he is now the best president ?

What of people he refused to pay for their services?
I'm of the opinion that his Big beautiful bill abolished taxes on tips. For gig workers.
The grandma pockets the full tip without paying any tax on it.
Isn't that wonderful .
Millions of others like her who receive tips at work won't pay taxes.

As usual bemeruca has followed his mentally deranged god’s line of thought..

Hehehehehe..😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

See doctor that is ready to or has gutted health care..

And his worshippers are trying to explain the picture.
Those pics reminded me of a scene in Chapter 36, 'The Carnival at Rome' in the book the 'Count of Monte Cristo' written by Author: Alexandre Dumas and of Countess G describing her impression the Count of MC. https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/1184/pg1184-images.html#linkC2HCH0039

"Why, that he is no other than Lord Ruthven himself in a living form.”

This fresh allusion to Byron drew a smile to Franz’s countenance; although he could but allow that if anything was likely to induce belief in the existence of vampires, it would be the presence of such a man as the mysterious personage before him.

“I must positively find out who and what he is,” said Franz, rising from his seat.

“No, no,” cried the countess; “you must not leave me. I depend upon you to escort me home. Oh, indeed, I cannot permit you to go.”

“Is it possible,” whispered Franz, “that you entertain any fear?”

“I’ll tell you,” answered the countess. “Byron had the most perfect belief in the existence of vampires, and even assured me that he had seen them. The description he gave me perfectly corresponds with the features and character of the man before us. Oh, he is the exact personification of what I have been led to expect! The coal-black hair, large bright, glittering eyes, in which a wild, unearthly fire seems burning,—the same ghastly paleness. Then observe, too, that the woman with him is altogether unlike all others of her sex. She is a foreigner—a stranger. Nobody knows who she is, or where she comes from. No doubt she belongs to the same horrible race he does, and is, like himself, a dealer in magical arts. I entreat of you not to go near him—at least tonight; and if tomorrow your curiosity still continues as great, pursue your researches if you will; but tonight you neither can nor shall. For that purpose I mean to keep you all to myself.”

Franz protested he could not defer his pursuit till the following day, for many reasons.

“Listen to me,” said the countess, “and do not be so very headstrong. I am going home. I have a party at my house tonight, and therefore cannot possibly remain till the end of the opera. Now, I cannot for one instant believe you so devoid of gallantry as to refuse a lady your escort when she even condescends to ask you for it.”

There was nothing else left for Franz to do but to take up his hat, open the door of the box, and offer the countess his arm. It was quite evident, by her manner, that her uneasiness was not feigned; and Franz himself could not resist a feeling of superstitious dread—so much the stronger in him, as it arose from a variety of corroborative recollections, while the terror of the countess sprang from an instinctive belief, originally created in her mind by the wild tales she had listened to till she believed them truths. Franz could even feel her arm tremble as he assisted her into the carriage. Upon arriving at her hotel, Franz perceived that she had deceived him when she spoke of expecting company; on the contrary, her own return before the appointed hour seemed greatly to astonish the servants.

“Excuse my little subterfuge,” said the countess, in reply to her companion’s half-reproachful observation on the subject; “but that horrid man had made me feel quite uncomfortable, and I longed to be alone, that I might compose my startled mind.”

Franz essayed to smile.

“Nay,” said she, “do not smile; it ill accords with the expression of your countenance, and I am sure it does not spring from your heart. However, promise me one thing.”

“What is it?”

“Promise me, I say.”

“I will do anything you desire, except relinquish my determination of finding out who this man is. I have more reasons than you can imagine for desiring to know who he is, from whence he came, and whither he is going.”

“Where he comes from I am ignorant; but I can readily tell you where he is going to, and that is down below, without the least doubt.”

“Let us only speak of the promise you wished me to make,” said Franz.

“Well, then, you must give me your word to return immediately to your hotel, and make no attempt to follow this man tonight. There are certain affinities between the persons we quit and those we meet afterwards. For heaven’s sake, do not serve as a conductor between that man and me. Pursue your chase after him tomorrow as eagerly as you please; but never bring him near me, if you would not see me die of terror. And now, good-night; go to your rooms, and try to sleep away all recollections of this evening. For my own part, I am quite sure I shall not be able to close my eyes.”

Must be a difficult time being a Trump supporter.
grin grin

1. Conservative Christians being disappointed with Trump portraying himself as God.

2. Catholic Conservatives being dissappear with his fight with the pope.

3. European allies being disappointed with the nonsense in Iran.

4. Victor Orban being disappointed with Trump's backing in the elections that still resulted in his loss.

Everything Trump touches turns to sh1te.
Yet its democrats that are having meltdowns

Did you watch the Trump supporters at the UFC fight last weekend? Looks like they were having a good time

He said he thought it depicted him as a doctor.

Either he doesn’t see because his eyes don’t work.

Or he’s never even seen a picture of Jesus Christ before (wouldn’t surprise me) but somehow he managed to conveniently use it to hoodwink them into believing he’s a Christian.

Or (most likely) he knows they’re stupid and will lap up any excuse he comes up with.

Case in point. See it’s already happening on this thread

Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by cococandy(f): 12:47am On Apr 14
And just like that they hoodwinked the easily deceived

BUSTED: Republicans caught using the same woman to promote GOP policies. Sharon Simmons—identified as being from Arkansas—was seen delivering DoorDash McDonald’s to Donald Trump today while promoting the GOP’s “no tax on tips” messaging.

She also previously appeared at a 2025 GOP field hearing, where she spoke about how Republican tax policies would impact her family.

This appears to be part of a broader, coordinated effort to elevate the same voices across multiple events and narratives to reinforce GOP policy messaging.

Even the blurb you quoted is propaganda.
They make it seem like she randomly got a DoorDash order from the White House and just moseyed on to the Oval Office through the secret service and all the agents with machine guns. It seemed like a commercial for DoorDash and McDonalds.

Even past the skit. We are supposed to be cheering for WhiteHouse policy that forces a grandma to deliver DoorDash for a living who also says she needed "no tax on Tips" to afford her husband's cancer treatment? Huh?
It's propaganda made for edee.ots.
