The Mail reports that three "Brits" have been arrested for rape in Croatia. Their names: Ami Arifi, Gezhim Xhafa, and Sohqib Shakibi. How far into the article do you have to get to find out they are actually from Kosovo? The last paragraph.

The Guardian wants us to be believe that it's German right-wing extremists who are attacking a gay pub *in Neukölln*. "We don't yet know who burned down the Nazi bookstore in Tel Aviv, but of course Transnistrian irredentists must be our prime suspects." theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…

"...de Graaf also suggested smearing windows with yogurt, administering electric shocks to distract from the heat, shoving a frozen cucumber into your rectum, and going to the local pool to share bacteria with 4,000 strangers who also had the same idea." bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
