🇵🇱⚡- "Polish security services have detained a 19-year-old student suspected of seeking to establish contacts with Islamic State and charged with preparing an attack at a Christmas market that could have caused mass casualties," - Reuters.

🇺🇸🇨🇴⚡- BREAKING: The US Department of State has designated the Colombian-based Clan del Golfo cartel as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.

"Based in Colombia, Clan del Golfo is a violent and powerful criminal organization with thousands of members. The group’s primary source of income is cocaine trafficking, which it uses to fund its violent activities. Clan del Golfo is responsible for terrorist attacks against public officials, law enforcement and military personnel, and civilians in Colombia," - Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

🇵🇱⚡️- A Christmas market ISIS attack was foiled in Poland earlier today, the culprit was detained by Polish ISA officers alongside materials proving his attempts to contact terrorist groups.

🇺🇸🇵🇸 - There is growing suspicion that Mustapha Kharbouch, a third-generation Palestinian refugee studying international relations at Brown University, is the perpetrator of the mass shooting at Brown University on December 13th.

A Gait analysis conducted comparing a video of Kharbouch at a pro-Palestine protest and surveillance footage published by the Providence Police Department shows a 97.8% correlation; high confidence that the two individuals in both videos are the same. Gait analysis use three-dimensional models to analyze and determine movement pathology, primarily in animals, but the same system has been used to identify and correlate human movement.

Furthermore, all evidence that Kharbouch ever was at Brown University has been scrubbed; with his page on Brown University's official website now redirecting to a 404 error. His LinkedIn no longer displays Brown University in any way, and his X has been deactivated.

NOTE: Rerum Novarum is NOT positively identifying Kharbouch as the shooter at this time.

🇺🇸🇵🇸 - Gait analysis conducted on two videos; one video published by the Providence Police Department depicting the suspected shooter, the other video displaying Mustapha Kharbouch at a pro-Palestine protest.

🇺🇸🇵🇸 - Kharbouch's LinkedIn page previously showed him as a student at Brown University.

Those connections no longer exist on his LinkedIn.

🇺🇸🇵🇸 - Mark Halperin, an American journalist who hosts a program on MK and formerly was the political director of ABC News, has stated on his own show that the family of Ella Cook, one of the students killed at Brown University, was "targeted" by the shooter.

Ella Cook, the 19 year old Sophomore who was killed at Brown University, was the Vice President of Brown University's College Republicans chapter. Further unverified sources who were allegedly present in the room that the shooting took place in say that the shooter "repeatedly shot" Cook, and implied that Cook was clearly the target of the shooting; though these rumors cannot be verified.

Assuming there is a political motivation, it would check out that Mustapha Kharbouch is the shooter; given his far-left politics and pro-Palestine activism, which is on the record.

🇺🇸🇵🇸 - We will reiterate once again: We are NOT positively identifying Mustapha Kharbouch as the shooter until authorities confirm it.

It is, however, highly suspicious that the University is going to great lengths to conceal and omit his existence, and - most importantly - his politics.
