Muslims 'have the right to kill millions of French people', Malaysia's former PM says after church terror attack in Nice

Malaysia's former prime minister today said that Muslims have the right 'to kill millions of French people', shortly after a knife-wielding Islamist killed three people in a deadly terror attack in Nice.  Mahathir Mohamad, who lost power in February this year, said freedom of expression does not include 'insulting other people' as fury over  satirical cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed sweeps the Islamic world. The 95-year-old politician said he did not approve of the beheading of a French school teacher for sharing caricatures of the Prophet, but said: 'Irrespective of the religion professed, angry people kill'. 'The French in the course of their history killed millions of people. Many were Muslims,' he said in a tweet which has since been removed for violating the website's rules. Mahathir, who has drawn controversy for comments about Jews and LGBT people in the past, went on: 'Muslims have a right to be angry and to kill millions of French

Eerie images show the time warp interior of a dilapidated hoarder house that sold for almost $4MILLION to a buyer who refused to go in the door

Garbage bags litter the floor, mould creeps across the roof and almost every window is shattered - how did anyone live here? But despite being declared 'uninhabitable', this disgusting, dilapidated Sydney cottage home to chronic hoarders sold for $3.41million at auction.    Cleaners spent weeks trying to prepare the property in Concord, in Sydney's inner-west, for auction.  House of horrors: The outside of the house has fallen into disrepair. However it is nothing compared to what is on the inside   The back room was filled with rubbish bags, cleaning products and large cardboard boxes, with a large dark brown piano sat gathering dust Furniture such as chairs, cabinets and rugs still sat in the living room area surrounded by little else besides the uncared for structure of the home A final glimpse inside the home and out of control gardens before it is bulldozed reveals an eerie setting forgotten by time.  Furniture is covered with dust, leaves are all over the floor, and t

Jeremy Corbyn supporters pour £340,000 into his legal fighting fund as former Labour leader is suspended from party in row over anti-Semitism report

Supporters of Jeremy Corbyn poured around £10,000 into a 'legal fund' for the former Labour leader on Thursday as he was suspended from his party for downplaying a damning report into anti-Semitism.  The donations were made to a Go Fund Me site set up in July by a supporter after Mr Corbyn faced legal action for criticising the party's decision to apologise and pay damages to anti-Semitism. On Thursday alone, around £10,000 was donated by supporters, bumping the total figure in the 'fund' to more than £345,000, even though the target remains £20,000. Multiple donations are being made each minute, despite the Equality and Human Rights Commission's report on Thursday damning Labour's handling of anti-Semitism complaints when Mr Corbyn was Labour leader.   Supporters of Jeremy Corbyn poured around £10,000 into a 'legal fund' for the former Labour leader on Thursday as he was suspended from his party for downplaying a damning report into anti-Semitism Mr

Hackers steal $2.3MILLION from the Wisconsin Republican Party that was going to be used for Trump's reelection campaign

Hackers stole $2.3 million from the Wisconsin Republican Party's account that was being used to help reelect President Donald Trump in the key battleground state, the party's chairman told The Associated Press on Thursday. The party noticed the suspicious activity on Oct. 22 and contacted the FBI on Friday, said Republican Party Chairman Andrew Hitt. Hitt said the FBI is investigating. FBI spokesman Leonard Peace did not immediately return a message seeking comment. Hackers manipulated invoices from four vendors who were being paid to send out direct mail for Trump's reelection efforts.  Invoices and other documents were altered so when the party paid them, the money went to the hackers instead of the vendors The attack was discovered less than two weeks before Election Day as both Trump and Democratic rival Joe Biden made their final push to win Wisconsin and its 10 electoral votes. Trump won the state by fewer than 23,000 votes in 2016 and planned his third visit in seven

Donald Trump and Joe Biden campaigns head to Florida days before the election for competing rallies in the swing state the president MUST win for a chance at a second term

Donald Trump and Joe Biden are both heading to Florida on Thursday, where they will hold their respective rallies just hours apart, as the candidates chase votes in the swing state essential for a win next week. Florida, now the president's home state, is crucial for Trump to earn a second term as it's the 2020 battleground state with the most Electoral College votes. Both candidates will hold their campaign events in the gulf coast city of Tampa, where they will encourage voters to turn out on November 3 in an area of Florida known for its rapid residential growth, including sprawling suburbs.  Besides holding the rallies in Tampa, the similarities in campaigning end there. Trump is holding his midday rally in a lot just outside Buccaneer’s Stadium, which also happens to be an early voting location in Hillsborough County. The close proximity will surely cause a log jam for those looking to cast their early votes in-person at that specific location. Meaning, the president can s
