2. Nigeria’s Boko Haram ‘seize Banki town near Cameroon’

The military has not yet commented on the latest town to reportedly fall to the insurgents in recent weeks.

Fears have been raised that their main target is Maiduguri, the capital of north-eastern Borno state.

Boko Haram’s “lightning territorial gains” could lead to Nigeria breaking up like Iraq, a think-thank has warned.

3. While newspapers and authorities stubbornly refuse to give the man who beheaded a woman in the UK’s name, locals say he converted to Islam last year.

 One line of inquiry for detectives is now understood to be whether the man had been inspired by recent footage of the Isil beheadings of two US journalists in Syria.

Locals last night claimed the arrested man had converted to Islam last year.

4. I believe this is the video threatening Putin and Russia. I also believe that Putin probably will not take the threats quite as indifferently than Obama. We shall see.

5. Sotloff Family Spokesperson’s Pathetic Challenge to IS “Caliph” Al-Baghdadi’s Jihad Orthodoxy

I just viewed a very brief, but excruciating video “response” by a Satloff family representative addressed to Islamic State (IS) “Caliph” al-Baghdadi, in the wake of Steven Sotloff’s beheading. The spokesman, Barak Barfi, identified as “an Arabic scholar and resident fellow at the New America Foundation,” challenged the IS Caliph to a “debate,” ostensibly on the alleged peaceful teachings of the Koran, vis-à-vis jihad warfare. Barfi’s Koranic challenge hinged on his invocation—and apparent “personal exegesis”—of Koran 2:190. Here are two standard English translations using pious Muslim sources: […]

(This is worth reading. Especially the part in blue at the bottom. She is a good example of how if you deal with reality or confront muslim aggressors, you will likely find yourself at the wrong end of the law. We had better start demanding that reason and equality are returned to us and now)

8. Israel: ‘Thousands’ of Isis Supporters Rally at Temple Mount in Jerusalem

A gathering of thousands of Isis (now known as the Islamic State) supporters has taken place at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, according to local Israeli media.

The report by the Israeli television station Channel 10 (to be broadcast next week) added the gathering further demonstrated the terror group’s sights were firmly focused on Israel as a future target.

The rally, which took place on a recent Friday prayer session, was organised by the Tahrir party, described as the “Palestine branch” of IS.

The author of the report, Zvi Yehezkeli, said a widely shared photo of an IS supporter was taken next to his position at the Temple Mount.

He added the terror group “now knocking on Jordan’s door, has marked ‘Palestine’ as the next target on its list”.

In July, IS told the Palestinian people it was “only a matter of time” before they reach Palestine to join the fight against “barbaric Jews”.

    • They have managed to frighten the world because the left has spent so much time and money indoctronating us to never use violence to defend ourselves.

      • All the Arab countries attacked the newborn state of Israel, and they were armed to the teeth. They were as convinced of their destiny as IS.

        They turned tale and ran, leaving their shoes behind them. Not the Left, but those superior Mustards. Bullies are also cowards. Those tactics can’t cut it against conventional armies.

        Nassar was the poster-boy of the Soviets. Once again, in 1967 all the Arabs attacked the “Zionist entity.” They didn’t do so well that time either.

        The same Left is running western governments today. Why else back such losers?

    • #7 Once again the left in Britian follows the USSR, anyone doing something that is considered anti-social or anti-state is mentally ill, at least she wasn’t send to a nut house for several years like the soviets use to do.

    Comment posted at Mirror.co.UK

    7:50pm. One neighbour described the alleged attacker as a ‘large black man’ known locally as “fat Nick”.
    His mother is believed to also live in the street.

    The neighbour, an eyewitness, gave a statement to police saying he beheaded his mother’s cat using a large machete.

    The neighbour said:” I know him quite well. His mum lives on this road. I was in my house when I heard shouting.

    “I looked out and saw him screaming, ‘Where’s the cat, where’s the cat”.

    “He then went into my back garden and started chopping at my roses in the back with the machete. He was going crazy because he couldn’t find it.

    “Then he saw it in another garden further along and chopped its head off with the machete. There was blood everywhere. I went and called the police.”

    9:24pm While brutal, today’s killing is not the first serious crime in Edmonton.
    The area earned the nick name ‘Shank Town’ due to a high levels of crime involving weapons, and stabbings in particular.

    Following the tragic killing of Palmira Silva, residents will have to work even harder to turn that reputation around.

    source for following comment:

    The media also made a quick point to dismiss terrorism because of the fear from murdered soldier Lee Rigby , plus that area is also about 80% ethnic minorities – mostly Turkish, polish, Romanian, Albanian , Somalian etc and has a high muslim community, so people were quick to say it was a Islamic attack.

  7. So, do you suppose it has escaped Vladimir Putin’s attention that he is now in a position to step right in front of Barack Obama and the other Western ditherers and play the world hero by smashing ISIS personally? Why not? The Islamic State is directly fighting a Russian ally and now is personally threatening Russia and her fearless leader, Vladimir Putin. Why can’t Putin respond to that? Why is it only the West that gets to play international politics? And wouldn’t this be a nice response to Obama’s insulting dismissal of Russia as a “regional power”, acting out of “weakness”?

    I can just see it… “Step aside, boys, and watch as a real man takes care of a threat against the women and children of his beloved country…”. And wouldn’t the fun-loving Russian MIG-pilots just love to go gopher-shooting with those ISIS Toyota jeeps? I’ll betcha Vlad is thinking about it right this very minute…:)

    And wouldn’t the Russian People be ecstatic over the vindication of their country over their “defeat” in the Cold War as they watch their boys fight the good fight that Obama is too messed up to face, and show up those darn Westerners for once and for all?

    If this comes true, the Americans are going to be so embarrassed they will not be able to show their faces for the next ten years.

    • What’s interesting about it? That kind of scuttlebutt is designed to weaken morale and nothing more. The Woolwich beheading was not a hoax; the British Government goes out of their way to lessen hatred against Muslims, not the other way around. “cris spivey” is obviously an uninformed, unintelligent, troublemaker and nothing else…
