France knife attack: Woman beheaded, two others killed at Nice church
Former Malaysian prime minister Mahathir Mohamad is in the inglorious company of Muhammad Sa id Abdal-Rahman al-Mawla, the self-styled caliph of the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group. This is as per a report on the world s most dangerous extremists presented by the Counter Extremism Project (CEP).
Mahathir ranks 14 in the list of the world s top 20 most dangerous extremists. Hassan Nasrallah, the secretary-general of Palestinian group Hezbollah, is the most dangerous in the list. According to the report, Mahathir is anti-Semitic and a critic of the West. His remarks justifying the October 2020 terrorist attack in France seem to have hugely influenced his inclusion in the list of infamy.
