germany supplied us with more weapons this fights would be more difficult if not impossible even if our allies supports mr wrist organization even if we stand alone even if i impose an arms embargo it doesn't matter we are fighting a terrorist organization and we will not relent. to that with. all super typhoon had a base has made landfall and has pummeling wide areas of japan including tokyo strong with already claimed 2 lives and at least 3 people are missing forecasters say that the typhoon could be the most dangerous and more than 60 years. darken skies and the roar of emergency vehicles on the streets of tokyo 1 as super typhoon hug abyss and nightfall approach central japan. just across the narrow waters of tokyo bay a tornado hit the city of. one man was killed as winds overturned his car several

what happened is that the state and the police have to be more involved with. germany's domestic intelligence had once watched the mosque for extremist views of its own but there is no sign of that today in a sermon the man condemned the attack in holland saying the state is tasked to provide protection for all citizens. as you can actually it doesn't matter if someone is a jew a muslim a christian or an atheist and. in the end jewish people and muslims are more affected because we are a target for nazis and racists before. the system. and meanwhile not far away these people are also expressing solidarity between religions christians jews and muslims have gathered to pray for peace this kind of

interfaith service is unusual appealing for intercultural dialogue working against hate and exclusion. of course you are always afraid especially when you hear about attacks like the one just now in hell or then you ask yourself tomorrow will it be us or will some other group be the target the question is not only relevant for muslims but for everyone. the terror attack in holland has that germany on edge the spotlight is on authorities to provide better security for jews muslims and everyone else. now this man behind me kenyan run a kid chug a has become the 1st person to break the 2 hour barrier for the marathon where he completed a specially designed course in the end in the time of war now officially 9 minutes and 40 seconds but a feat won't count as an official wild record because of certain strategies used.
