Police believe at this time that it was a murder-suicide, but can’t figure out who did the shooting—the mother or the father (Mohammad Walji)? Doesn’t that seem strange? Surely someone must have been holding a gun (or had it close enough to their body to be clearly the shooter).
Handicapped 21-year-old, Qyzra Walji,was killed by one of her parents
And, then what is the motive?
There is some suggestion that even after 15 years in Canada they had not received legal status, was that it? Or, was their handicapped Canadian daughter becoming too Western in her appearance and approach to life? Was it an honor killing? If anyone sees an update on the story, please send it my way.
A funeral Tuesday at an Ismaili Muslim mosque in Toronto will bring to a close the tragic lives of a Tanzanian refugee family from London, Ont., found dead last Thursday in what police describe as a double murder and suicide.
But troubling questions will remain, as detectives try to sort out who was the shooter, and whether there was some kind of suicide pact, or any indication of motive, mental illness, or other relevant circumstance.
London police will confirm little about the investigation, but one thing seems likely — that 21-year-old Qyzra Walji, a severely disabled young woman with cerebral palsy who graduated high school this year and has written movingly about her new life in Canada, was killed by one of her parents.
I wonder what was holding up their permanent residency? Heck, Canada must have already invested much in the daughter’s health, and she appears to have been an intellectual asset to the handicapped community there.
The Walji family came to Canada 15 years ago as refugees from Tanzania, and feared deportation as they spent thousands on immigration counsel, seeking permanent residency.
Wikidpedia tells us that Tanzania is 37% Muslim which surprised me, I assumed it was a smaller percentage of the population.
The Refugee Industrial Complex wants us to believe that asylum seekers are poor little waifs who need the help of the too-rich West.But some of the demanding refugee crowd are dangerous characters, as was demonstrated recently in rural Norway, where a knife-wielding Sudanese man murdered three on a bus after he had been refused asylum.
We are directed to the news in The Local on November 4th:
The 31-year-old, who was living at an asylum reception centre in Årdal, was due to be deported to Spain on Tuesday, after having his application rejected in June.
“This person had applied for asylum, and come to Norway in April,” a spokesman for Norway’s immigration directorate said. “He was rejected in June, and was supposed to be returned to Spain under the so-called Dublin Regulation.”
The reference here to the Dublin Regulation refers to the EU policy put in place about ten years ago to try to reduce the number of asylum shoppers who land in one country and then ‘make their way’ to another country within the EU that is more to their liking.
The man is accused of killing the bus driver, Arve Haug Bagn (55) and Margaret Molland Sanden, a 19-year-old biotechnology student at the Oslo and Akerhus University College of Applied Sciences. The third victim, a Swedish man in his 50s, has not been named.
[….]
The bus, the Valdres Express, travels the four-hour journey from the mountainous region of Valdres to Oslo , nd was hijacked between the towns of Årdal and Tyin in Sogn og Fjordane county.
The attack marks the second time the Valdres Express has been hijacked. In 2003, it was hijacked by a mentally disturbed 26-year-old Ethiopian man who stabbed the driver to death.
There is a follow-up story yesterday, also at The Localwhich brings up the subject of Anders Breivik in relation to the slow police response to the bus slaughter. Readers will remember that Breivik’s main beef (which the anti-free speech Norwegians never let him vent, until they were forced to hear it in his murder trial) when he went on his slaughter spree of children of Norway’s Leftists, was that African and Middle Eastern immigration was killing Norway.
Police said the man suspected of hijacking a bus on Monday evening, killing all on board, was a 30-year-old asylum seeker from South Sudan whose application had been rejected and who was due to be deported.
[….]
Fire fighters and medical personnel were first to arrive on the scene, ahead of police, and used a fire extinguisher to disable him. [A fire extinguisher!—what else in the land of no guns!—imagine how things might have been different if that poor bus driver had a gun!—ed]
[….]
That fact has re-awakened criticism of the police which surfaced after the brutal massacre carried out by the right wing extremist Anders Behring Breivik on July 21, 2011.
[….]
Breivik killed 69 young Labour Party members on the island of Utøya on a 75-minute shooting rampage which was preceded by a bomb attack killing eight in central Oslo.
Then much to my shock, The Local has the audacity, the poor judgement!, to post a sidebar story also yesterday entitled ‘Ten Things Norwegians do that annoy Foreigners.’ Be sure to look at the trivial ten!
In fairness now, they should publish ‘Ten things foreigners do that annoy Norwegians.’
No 1: Killing our beautiful girls on buses!
I won’t hold my breath!
Addendum: If any one sees more news on this in which the religious affiliation of the murderer is identified, let us know (I won’t hold my breath on that either!).
Here is the photo that accompanies an opinion piece at the once respectable Christian Science Monitor. Have a look at the “asylum seeker” and her family—see any shackles? Looks to me like Ms. Garcia from Honduras (did I miss a war in that country?) has a lovely modern kitchen (granite counter tops!). Both sons look well-fed. One son is obviously using a ‘smartphone’ of some sort. A toy truck on the floor would indicate that the kids have stuff. Shackles?
Here is a portion of the caption from the Christian Science Monitor: Angela Garcia fled DOMESTIC VIOLENCE in HONDURAS to seek asylum in the United States
I searched the article looking for some factual information about shackles and didn’t see a thing. And, let’s remember that a large percentage of “asylum seekers” in the US are simply released to relatives until their case is reviewed. They should count their lucky stars they didn’t try to get into Australia!
I want to remind readers that asylum (when first included in the Refugee Act of 1980) was meant for the odd political dissident (like a Russian ballet dancer wishing to defect), not the 29,500 this op-ed says we granted asylum to in 2012. It was never intended to allow tens of thousands to enter the US for flimsy reasons like hubby abused his wife.
The article is one more pitch for Congress to advance the so-called Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill that is languishing and that Obama has to resurrect now to cover his Obamacare roll-out catastrophe.
P.S. Once asylum is granted, Ms. Garcia will be eligible for all of our welfare programs just like any other refugee. Obamacare/Medicare too! See our fact sheet, here.
Consider the source! The World Socialists are mad as hell at Australia which has managed to thwart more boat arrivals of illegal aliens in recent weeks. Readers may wish to visit our Australia category, here, where we have several recent posts about how immigration policy in Australia was front and center in recent elections.
Here is what the spitting-mad Socialists say (emphasis mine):
At his weekly media briefing on asylum seeker arrivals last Friday, Immigration Minister Scott Morrison boasted of halting the arrival of refugee boats. No vessels arrived in the previous week, he said, while refusing to say whether the Australian navy pushed any back to Indonesia.
Both Morrison and Lieutenant-General Angus Campbell, the commander of the Abbott government’s military campaign, dubbed Operation Sovereign Borders, to prevent boat arrivals, responded to questions about boats being forced back by saying they would not comment on “on-water operations.”
These remarks reinforced the extraordinary secrecy and military atmosphere surrounding the government’s anti-refugee policy.
[…..]
There is fundamental bipartisan unity on this reactionary objective. The Labor opposition’s responded to Morrison’s boasts by insisting that the previous Rudd government had already succeeded in stopping refugees by deporting all arrivals to detention in remote Pacific island camps in Nauru or Papua New Guinea’s (PNG) Manus Island.
[…..]
Just as the campaign for the September 7 election featured a contest between Labor and the Liberal-National Coalition to produce the most punitive anti-refugee policy, since the election there has been a fight to claim credit for repelling asylum seekers, accompanied by a cover-up of what is happening to the victims of the new regime.
They are “illegal arrivals.”
Morrison has instructed his department to refer to asylum seekers as “illegal” arrivals, a term he used throughout last Friday’s briefing. It is not illegal under Australian or international law to claim asylum. The 1951 Refugee Convention recognises a right to flee persecution, and refugees arriving in Australia have committed no crime under domestic law.
Get this! The Syria “crisis” is the West’s fault (say what!) and so therefore the Socialists say we have to welcome Syrians to live in Western countries, presumably forever! And, be entitled to breast enhancement and botox.
Having helped create this catastrophe in Syria, just as they did in backing US-led interventions in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya before it, successive Australian governments have increasingly sought to shut the door to those fleeing the consequences.
An outbreak of acute flaccid paralysis from wild poliovirus in Syria could put European Union Member States at risk for contamination as refugees seek asylum, health officials warned on Thursday.
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control urged EU countries to question Syrian refugees about their polio vaccination history and to administer vaccinations to anyone who isn’t inoculated. [Will fundamentalist Muslims even tell the truth?—ed]
The WHO launched an investigation into an outbreak of AFP cases caused by wild poliovirus in Syria on Oct. 19. Since then, the national reference laboratory in Damascus, Syria, has concluded that the AFP cases were “likely caused by wild poliovirus.”
So far, 22 children have been diagnosed. Five victims are younger than 1-year-old, 13 victims are 1 to 2 years old and 4 victims are older than 2 years old.
Meanwhile, many Syrians have fled the country due to the ongoing conflict, and more had already applied for asylum in the EU before the outbreak. Regional and international public health officials are working to provide vaccinations to Syrians and displaced refugees.
The number of children who received polio vaccinations in Syria dropped from 95 percent in 2002 to 52 percent in 2012.
