(It may be worth going down and watching item 7 first. It is quite significant I believe in two ways.)
1. Master bomb maker killed in Syria. Turns out to be a muslim from France.
Thank you Oz-Rita for the translation

2. Source says reported letter from Obama to Ayatollah ‘f***s up everything’
(Interesting non-embedable video at site)
President Obama reportedly penned a secret letter to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei last month discussing their shared interest in fighting the Islamic State — a development one congressional source told Fox News “f***s up everything.”
The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday that, according to people briefed on the letter, Obama wrote to Khamenei in the middle of last month and stressed that any cooperation on dealing with the Islamic State, or ISIS, was tied to Iran striking a deal over its nuclear program. The U.S., Iran and other negotiators are facing a Nov. 24 deadline for such a deal.
3. Libyan rebels threaten to declare independence over rival parliament
On Thursday, Libya’s Supreme Court declared the House of Representatives in Tobruk to be unconstitutional. Parliament dismissed the ruling as invalid because the court is based in Tripoli, which is under the control of the rival assembly.
Jathran’s group said the ruling was invalid as the judges had not been working independently. Eastern deputies from the House of Representatives would form a special parliament for Cyrenaica in case of a secession declaration, he said, referring to the historic name for eastern Libya, used before Gaddafi took power.
4. US to send a lot more troops to Iraq. Double current number.
5. This video appears to be muslims doing what they do second best. Blowing up, burning and removing unislamic things in recently conquered territory.
(Perhaps a scholar can tell me if behind the bearded clam there are many books, or just many copies of the same 4 or 5 books?)
6. Radical UK cleric ready to give up citizenship, join ISIS

A radical British cleric said that he was ready to give up his British citizenship and live under the rule of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) – if guaranteed safe passage by the UK government, UK-newspaper The Times reported Friday.
Anjem Choudary, who denied being in touch with any ISIS militant and said he would consider renouncing his British nationality only “as a last resort.”
“I want to know from the Home Office and the crown prosecution service if it is illegal for me to travel to live in the Islamic State if I have no intention of carrying out acts of terrorism,” the London-born cleric said.
“I believe the world belongs to God and that one day, hopefully, the UK will be part of an Islamic State. Why shouldn’t I be free to travel to the khilafah [caliphate] and see what life is like under the Shariah [Islamic law]?” he added.
7. Islamic State crisis: The 13-year-old on ‘righteous path’
(This video is truly horrifying. But it is a good thing that the BBC actually filmed and published this. I suspect that is meaningful on its own.
(There is a related headline to this that shall appear sometime in the future should this person decide to put his body where our drones are, and head out to the Islamic State which he helped create. I look forward to reading that headline very much. I shall put a nice Barolo and a smoked ham away to celebrate on the day I see that headline)
Thank you M., Wrath of Khan, UK Pete, Oz-Rita, CB Sahsenka and a lot of other people who have sent in material today. There is more already in the pipe to be posted. Check back again in an hour or so for a great little segment of debate between Daniel Pipes and Geert Wilders where one of the usual sticking points on Islam is hammered out.
#6 — Let the little London born Paki go. They will kill him for being
1). Gay (we can start that rumour, if not true)
2). Not muzzie enough
3). Wrong flavour of muzzie (Shiite, Sunni – whatever)
4) A complete asshole that pisses off the main raghead boss over there.
Conclusion
He ain’t going nowhere. Why leave a welfare state that sucks his whole cult’s cock to go to the frigging sandbox?
Britain is fucked. Glad I left.
I see it that way. It is highly unlikely he will leave. I can’t imagine why he would leave a genuine paradise for a totalitarian oppressive psycho, hot useless regime where he is just one of any number of devout muslims enjoying no special status, no media circus and all that if they don’t kill him for general weasel-ness.
In England he gets everything he wants for free as well as a leadership role, spreading hate and sedition. If he tried anything like that in the Islamic state he is dead by dawn. And there would be no point in preaching Islam. Coals to Newcastle.
I agree the little punk isn’t going to leave until forced out that that is a decade or two from happening.
They should send him anyway whether he likes it or not. I would be happy to contribute towards payment of his flight ticket.
Is it too late to smother him with a pillow?
#1 – A U.S. missile strike may have taken out 24-year-old David Drugeon, a French-born convert to Islam who sources say became one of terror group Khorasan’s top bomb makers.

Malaysia – Headless bodies in Penang fuel fears of [ Muslim ] serial killer on the loose
GEORGE TOWN (THE STAR/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) – The discovery of two headless female bodies in Penang in the space of three days has raised fears of a serial killer on the loose.
There is also talk that the two cases are connected to the gruesome murders of 17 [ Buddhist ] Myanmar men on the mainland this year.
In some cases, the victims had their throats slit and their bodies dumped in dark alleys or by the roadside.
Penang police chief Senior Deputy Comm Datuk Wira Abdul Rahim Hanafi, however, considered the latest incident, involving a brutally murdered woman believed to be a foreigner, to be an isolated case.

MALAYSIA – Gruesome Myanmar communal murders grip Penang
GEORGE TOWN, Sept 18 — Twenty people savagely murdered in Penang this year are believed to be victims of communal clashes between Muslims and Buddhists from Myanmar.
Police said the latest was the double-murder of two men in their 30s who had their throats slit and their bodies dumped in an oil palm plantation in Kampung Manggis in Bukit Mertajam on Monday.
Police are worried religious and ethnic tensions between the two groups in Myanmar have bubbled to surface in the state with deadly consequences. Most of the victims were Buddhists.
They have been unable to head off the violence due to communication problems with both communities.
State deputy police chief Datuk A. Thaiveegan said a special task force has been set up by police to investigate the deaths.
“We are probing if religious disputes are involved,” he said.
The flashpoint of this violence is Seberang Prai where Rohingya Muslims from the western Rakhine state are the main suspects in the killings.
No one has been arrested in connection with the murders which began in January, although several weapons, mainly knives have been seized.
The reason for the killings are not immediately clear, with both groups blaming each other for the bitter tension. Police sources said the victims, mostly factory workers, were brutally killed and were found with their throats slit.
A source said: “Six people were been killed in central Seberang Prai in three separate cases while the remains of two other victims were discovered in southern Seberang Prai in the last four months.
“The remaining cases were reported in northern Seberang Prai while several other cases have also been occurred on the island.”
The source said the victims, all men, aged between 20 and 40 were abducted from their homes and murdered elsewhere.
Most of the victims were found without documents and their remains were identified by colleagues and friends.
Police believe the assailants had targeted their victims through their workplace colleagues and had also obtained information on them from members of their community who have been here for years.
Investigations have shown further conflict is at risk and police have asked employers of the victims for leads.
On Monday, a plantation worker stumbled upon the bodies of the two men at about 8.50am. Apart from slit throats, they also suffered multiple stab wounds.
Police believe they were murdered at another place before their bodies were dumped at the plantation.
One of the victims was identified based on his travel document while the identity of the other is still unknown.

On the road to the Botanical Gardens, nice. But the first headless woman would appear to have been a Muslim, if her given name was Halimah.

Thank heavens UNHCR has been in Seberang Perai since 2010 ‘helping to realize the dreams and aspirations of the poverty stricken and helpless members of the Rohingya community.’ Who knows how many Burmese Buddhists the poor Rohingya might have been forced to kill otherwise.

Unfortunately, you cannot trust this parasite in UK named Andy Choudary. Maybe he’s asking for money to make a holiday trip to Syria? I am convinced most brits will contribute if they accompany Andy to his plane and strip him off his citizenship. I’ve heard he can get a new one from IS.
This spoiled brat is just a big mouth and no spine..
Why shouldn’t I be free to travel to the khilafah [caliphate] and see what life is like under the Shariah [Islamic law]?” he added.
He should be allowed to leave. I would even suggest that we pay his Benefits for him while he is there.
But life is uncertain, what with American trigger happy Drone pilots, a major terrorist attack that changes the political climate in the West. Things like that.
