A Michigan youth center Friday hosted a memorial service mourning the “martyrdom” of terrorist leader Hassan Nasrallah. The event featured local Islamic leader Usama AbdulGhani, a resident scholar and spiritual leader at a K-5 school, who praised Nasrallah’s “bravery” and “divine resistance”—a resistance he said is now led by Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Nasrallah, the long-term leader of Hezbollah, an officially designated U.S. terrorist organization, was killed in an Israeli airstrike in 2024 after spending decades on Israel’s kill list for his involvement in numerous deadly attacks. The event, held at the Hadi Youth Community Center in Dearborn, Michigan, commemorated the one-year anniversary of Nasrallah’s death and urged prayers for the “ultimate victory of the Resistance.” The service was livestreamed on YouTube by Light of Guidance, an Islamic organization led by AbdulGhani. The video has since been taken down for “violating YouTube’s policy on violent or graphic content.” AbdulGhani is the “resident ‘alim,’” or religious scholar, at Hadi Montessori, a Dearborn-based K-5 school of 52 students. In the service at the youth center, AbdulGhani called Nasrallah “Seyyed,” an honorific meaning “lord” or “master,” and expressed hope Nasrallah’s death inspired others to follow his example. AbdulGhani offers “weekly lectures and discussions” with Hadi Montessori staff, as well as monthly parenting sessions for the community. In 2023, AbdulGhani spoke at a pro-Hamas rally in front of a Dearborn library, calling Oct. 7, 2023, the day Hamas murdered more than 1200 Israelis, a “day of God” and a “miracle,” according to reporting from the Middle East Media Research Institute. In a series of 2024 ceremonies at the Hadi Youth Community Center, AbdulGhani called Israelis “the worst of Allah’s creation” and accused them of harvesting the organs of Palestinians, according to the Jerusalem Post.

Modern liberals beset by irrational hatred of President Donald Trump must fall into one of two categories. Either they live such empty lives that they have embraced bitterness as a way of filling the void in their souls, or they have absorbed so much anti-Trump propaganda from the establishment media...

Germany’s Oktoberfest was shut down for several hours on Wednesday as police searched the area of the festival grounds due to a bomb threat. According to reports, the bomb threat was related to a suspect linked to an explosion in another part of Munich. In preliminary findings, police said the suspect died by suicide.

The suspect, who had been living in the town of Starnberg south of the city, had been carrying a backpack containing an explosive device, a Bavaria police statement said earlier. City police said the blast before dawn in northern Munich at a residential building, which had been deliberately set on fire, appeared connected to a domestic dispute. The Bavarian interior ministry described it as a dispute over paternity, German news agency dpa reported. During the initial investigation, a letter written by the suspect and found near the crime scene contained a “non-specific” threat of explosives related to Oktoberfest, Bavaria police said. Daily Mail reports that an injured individual found near the building where the explosion occurred later passed away. The suspect allegedly killed his 90-year-old father, injured his mother, and injured a 21-year-old woman at the property, the outlet reports. At least one person’s death was believed to be connected to the explosion at a residential building, which Munich police said was deliberately set on fire. According to BILD, a man presumably rigged his parents' house with explosives, set it on fire, and then took his own life.… pic.twitter.com/qfophWslpW — Visegrád 24 (@visegrad24) October 1, 2025 Daily Mail noted: Local media reported that a man was suspected of having caused the explosion and fire in his parents’ house before killing himself, and that shots had been fired in the incident, but police did not confirm this. The perpetrator allegedly killed himself at Lercheanauer Lake, which is a five-minute drive from the home. According to the newspaper Welt, responders discovered hand grenades with tripwires at the house. Several booby traps were also found. One local resident told Die Welt that he ‘woke up around 5am because there were a few loud bangs. I got up, looked, and then there was a fire’. Another reported a noxious cloud of smoke, along with the smell of fire. A 200m evacuation zone around the explosion’s epicentre was triggered, forcing local residents to leave the area.
