Després de 13 anys d'escriure en aquest bloc pràcticament sense interrumpció, avui el dono per clausurat.

Es tracta del bloc The Catalan Analyst i del compte de Twitter del mateix nom: @CatalanAnalyst Us recomano que els seguiu.

Moltes gràcies a tots per haver-me seguit amb tanta fidelitat durant tots aquests anys.

Uns musulmans cremen viu un adolescent anglès perquè era blanc

Kriss DonaldZahid MohammedHo explica la BBC:
A 15-year-old Glasgow schoolboy who was stabbed and set on fire was attacked because he was white, according to one of the men who abducted him.
Three men are on trial at the High Court in Edinburgh for the murder of Kriss Donald, they deny all charges.

Zahid Mohammed was jailed for five years in 2004 after admitting he had assaulted Kriss Donald. Giving evidence in the murder trial, he said the boy pleaded for his life after he was snatched from a street in 2004. Mohammed, 22, was released on licence on Wednesday. He was giving evidence on the third day of the trial of Imran Shahid, 29, his brother Zeeshan "Crazy" Shahid, 28, and Mohammed "Beck" Mushtaq, 27, who have denied abducting and murdering Kriss in a racially motivated attack on 15 March, 2004.

He told the court that he had driven around with a group of Asian youths looking for revenge after Imran Shahid had been hit with a bottle in a night club. Zahid Mohammed said Kriss was punched as his attackers demanded to know who carried out the bottle attack. Mohammed said that before they left a flat in the Pollokshields area, Imran Shahid - whose nickname is "Baldy" - had threatened that he would look for someone to cut them up and take out their eyes.
