Links For National Cat Day

Today's Twitter hashtag is #NationalCatDay.  Thus, I must set forth my own definition of a cat - a martial arts expert with knives attached to all 20 digits.  Fortunately, we've domesticated them, and as result, usually don't have to deal with their fighting skills.  But if you're a small varmint, the furry critter that purrs and meows for humans is your worst nightmare.  On the other hand, if you're a human, grab your pussy (you know, the four-legged kind) and read some stories:

From Voice Of Europe, in Italy, three Moroccans allegedly murder a 79-year-old woman.

From the Sunday Express, after being ejected from a night club in Salford, England, a man returns with a knife and launches a chemical attack.

From Russia Today, pro-unity demonstrators scuffle with police in Barcelona, Spain (which apparently is not going to become Barcelona, Catalonia any time soon).

From Deutsche Welle, the E.U. threatens to restrict visas from countries that won't take back their failed asylum seekers.  (My spellchecker rejects Welle, but has no problem with Deutsche.)

From Breitbart London, the German immigration agency usually doesn't bother to check if a refugee's home country is safe.

From Breitbart Sports, there are still plenty of available seats.

From Decider, President Trump and Michael are fighting - on Twitter.

From Assyrian International News Agency, Iraqi forces and the Kurdish Peshmerga start new talks.

From AhlulBayt News Agency, Armenia wants to help rebuild Syrian infrastructure.

From Townhall, how liberals "are destroying America's culture".

From National Review, could there be a Senator Mitt Romney?

From Arutz Sheva, in Israel, both Muslim and Christian religious leaders oppose the sale of land to Jews.

From Daily News & Analysis, in a dozen women and a former union minister have been "ousted" from Islam for allegedly worshiping a Hindu deity.

From Scroll(dot)in, a Muslim woman's family supports her right to marry a Christian man.  (Normally, Muslim women are not allowed to marry non-Muslim men, but adherence to this rule varies to some degree.)

From Gatestone Institute, "terrorism in Europe".

From Quartz, because Gambia is now democratic, European countries are urging migrants from that country to go back.

From The Hill, five people Trump could pick as the new leader of the Federal Reserve.  (via HotAir)

And from The Sun, ouch!  (via the New York Post)
