  2. Malaysia to tighten border security after regional attacks – minister (asiancorrespondent, May 28, 2017)
    https://asiancorrespondent.com/2017/05/malaysia-tighten-border-security-regional-attacks-minister/#FmSSW73T54KH04BB.97

    “MALAYSIA will tighten security at its borders following the recent spate of militant and terrorist attacks in neighbouring countries and deploy more assets to these areas.

    According to The Star, the string of attacks in the Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand are what prompted Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein to order the armed forces to beef up patrols across the entire border…”

  3. Federal judge tosses out life sentences for DC sniper Malvo

    A federal judge on Friday tossed out two life sentences for one of Virginia’s most notorious criminals, sniper Lee Boyd Malvo, and ordered Virginia courts to hold new sentencing hearings.

    In his ruling, U.S. District Judge Raymond Jackson in Norfolk said Malvo is entitled to new sentencing hearings after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that mandatory life sentences for juveniles are unconstitutional.

    Malvo was 17 when he was arrested in 2002 for a series of shootings that killed 10 people and wounded three over a three-week span in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia, causing widespread fear throughout the region.

    His accomplice, John Allen Muhammad, was executed in 2009. [NOW WHY DID THAT CRUEL INJUSTICE HAPPEN?!?]

    Malvo also was sentenced to life in prison in Maryland for the murders that occurred there. But his lawyers have made an appeal on similar grounds in that state. A hearing is scheduled in June.

    Add these criminal defense lawyers to The List™.

    [Gasp!]

    Who fecking cares!?!

  4. “Mr Ghaffur, an Assistant Commissioner at Scotland Yard when the 7/7 bombings took place, proposes that special centres be set up to detain as many as 3,000 extremists, where they can be kept from launching attacks.

    They would also be made to go through a de-radicalisation programme.

    He admits that the internment of IRA members in Northern Ireland during the 1970s led to a violent backlash and hunger strikes.

    But Mr Ghaffur believes the idea would work for extremists if the camps were approved by imams, whom he believes should also issue a ‘fatwa’ condemning atrocities such as the suicide bombing in Manchester that left 22 dead.”

    • From afar, it seems that the Christian church’s liberal denominations enable dhimmitude in their acceptance and endorsement of subjugation of women. Any luck in suggestion that Christian pulpits condemn acceptance of these practices?

      • About as much as anything to the left of Modern Orthodox rabbis. And don’t count on all of them, either.

        American Reform Jews happily perform as Abbas’ puppets
        …From the Palestinian perspective, this meeting was a success. They spread propaganda and the Reform Jews helped them. In fact, they amplified them for him in Israeli media:

        I was impressed with the president’s clear and unequivocal commitment to the two-state solution,” [URJ President Rick] Jacobs said in a statement. “He clearly is frustrated with the lack of progress, or even the existence of ongoing negotiations. I share that frustration.
        Meaning, they are telling the world that Abbas is more interested in peace than Netanyahu.

        Yeah, they brought up incitement against Jews and Abbas deftly told them that Israel is just as bad. That shut them up, because they only know what they read in the New York Times.

        It is still amazing to me how clueless some Jewish leaders are not to realize that they are being used as pawns by those who stress every day how they want to destroy Israel while mouthing their support for a “two state solution” – where both states are Arab.

  5. Yesterday I took the gang to the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. In the 15 minutes of commercials leading up to the feature there were two: You’re an Asshole if you say Anything Against Muslims segments. (I won’t use the invention “Islamophobia” if I can help it.) It is appalling propaganda being pumped into the minds of youth, this. Forget the adults. So few have been given any tools to think for themselves that they digest this garbage as automatons. Such hoards of human animals who haven’t the presence of mind to even occasionally swipe at the hand spooning them mental pablum. And it takes no great intellect to be weary of being told what to think, so on this most perfunctory level I resent such common mindlessnes. It takes only a grown-up to tell you you’re allowed, and it only has to be said once.

    While the video book on Post Modernism is long and dense, it is essential listening. As an autodidact I find it foundational, and I no longer see the world quite the same as I did. I will impart of it what I can to my children.

    Is your education at Vladtepes, and beyond, making you a pariah? I ask all in earnest. Is your social circle shrinking or expanding? Do you find your knowledge increasingly exclusionary? Do you find yourself throwing probing comments at people, like a rubber ball, to see what bounces back? Do you find yourself pleasantly surprised when you find people of like mind in unlikely facades, and a little disappointed by failed candidates you were sure were on side?

    I think the vile deconstruction tactics of Post Modernism are brilliant and effective. One must be able to point them out in order to defuse them.

    • 1) The way to make the big lie technique work is massive repetition, this gets the people who are unable to use critical thought and the young to believe the big lie. For the rest of us there is social pressure and the police.

      2) Out here in the small towns of fly over country thre isn’t much pressure to believe the lies, in the larger towns it is about 50-50.

    • If the Seth Rich murder was just an armed robbery why was the FBI looking into it? why is the mainstream media so hell uyent on shutting this story up? why is Sean Hannity being silenced for even covering the murder of Rich? There are many unanswered questions but hopefully this FBI memo can be the first step into uncovering the truth behind the murder of Seth Rich.

      In a heavily redacted memo released to me by a source within the FBI we see Seth Rich’s name. The Email states that the laptop contained DNC and Wikileaks information.

      At the bottom right it has code that can be used to look up the official FBI memo SCRDC-408

  6. State Department Employee Arrested and Charged With Concealing Extensive Contacts With Foreign Agents

    A federal complaint was unsealed today charging Candace Marie Claiborne, 60, of Washington, D.C., and an employee of the U.S. Department of State, with obstructing an official proceeding and making false statements to the FBI, both felony offenses, for allegedly concealing numerous contacts that she had over a period of years with foreign intelligence agents.

    The charges were announced by Acting Assistant Attorney General Mary B. McCord for National Security, U.S. Attorney Channing D. Phillips of the District of Columbia and Assistant Director in Charge Andrew W. Vale of the FBI’s Washington Field Office.

    “Candace Marie Claiborne is a U.S. State Department employee who possesses a Top Secret security clearance and allegedly failed to report her contacts with Chinese foreign intelligence agents who provided her with thousands of dollars of gifts and benefits,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General McCord. “Claiborne used her position and her access to sensitive diplomatic data for personal profit. Pursuing those who imperil our national security for personal gain will remain a key priority of the National Security Division.”

  7. BROOKLYN: A Lebanese man accused of trying to use his ties to Hezbollah to further a scheme to launder drug money pleaded guilty on Friday in a Brooklyn, New York federal court to a U.S. money laundering conspiracy charge.

    U.S. prosecutors said Joseph Asmar, 43, of Beirut, entered his plea at a hearing before U.S. District Judge Eric Vitaliano.

    Asmar had been arrested in Paris in October 2015, and was extradited to the United States 14 months later. He had also faced a money laundering charge.

  8. Margo Kaplan is a special kind of liberal thinker. The special kind that believes all behavior is excusable, because we should all be ‘tolerant’. Well, I have news for you, lady. This isn’t gonna fly with most of mainstream Americans, and probably not many of your colleagues, either.

    She has written a precious little article that states, of all things, that now we should accept the PEDOPHILES are victims, too. She’s serious. Like really serious. She explains in an interview below:

    http://joeforamerica.com/2015/06/margo-kaplan-pedophilia-is-not-a-crime/

    • “Pedophillia: A disorder, not a crime.”

      Exactly.

      Homosexuality: A disorder, not a crime.

      Therefore, the medic profession give them treatment.

      Their acts are a crime.

      Thank you Margo Kaplan.

      Diagnosis reinstated.

      Bring back the laws from 1950.

      Solved.

      Civilized saved.

      Muhammad was a pedophile. Cult ended.

      • All of this is merely the “medicalization” of common pathologies so that malefactors or abnormals can be converted into victims—thereby demanding a sympathetic ear from people who usually would be inclined to punish such (mis)behavior.

  9. Islamist militants locked in street-to-street battles with security forces in a southern Philippine city have killed 19 civilians, the military said Sunday, bringing the official death toll from nearly a week of fighting to at least 85.

    The violence prompted the president, Rodrigo Duterte, to declare martial law on Tuesday across the southern third of the Philippines to quell what he said was a fast-growing threat of militants linked to the Islamic State group.

    Authorities said the militants had killed 19 civilians in Marawi, a mostly Muslim-populated city of 200,000 people. These included three women and a child who were found dead near a university.

  10. Canada’s Conservatives have chosen a youthful new leader to take them into the next federal election.
    Former House of Commons speaker Andrew Scheer, 38, beat 12 other contestants in a razor-thin victory.
    He emerged as the winner on the thirteenth ballot in the leadership contest, narrowly defeating his primary rival, former foreign affairs minister Maxime Bernier, with 51% of the vote.
    Mr Scheer will lead the party against Justin Trudeau’s Liberals in 2019.
    Speaking on Saturday to party faithful gathered in Toronto, Mr Scheer offered a message of unity to the party built some 14 years ago on a coalition of progressive, populist and social conservatives.

  11. Things we are looking for answers on, for which there are no answers and no excuses.

    Muslim takeover
    Our Constitution is only as strong as our officials who enforce it. We just went through an invasion like we have never seen before in Obama. Hillary was let off on treason and espionage that everyone knows she committed. There were members in the CIA, FBI, IRS, StateDept, SecState, Homeland security who all committed treason agains our country for Obama. The courts are breaking our Contitution right now by writing law from the bench to match their personal liberal views. The courts do NOT have the right to write laws. Obama wrote illegal executive orders constantly, he also has NO right to write laws. ONLY Congress has the right to write laws.
    A core value of Islam is to overthrown all political systems and governments and to impose Shariah law. They are inflitrating our government t locally and federally as we speak. Do you have any idea how many Muslim enclaves around America are practicing Shariah is secret? Look at Shariah law being practiced in Dearborn, Mi, where they have stoned a woman to death, burned another alive, and stoned a group of Christians, Loom at TX where they were practicing Shariah and the locals, NOT the Feds, shut them down. Testimony before Congress said on average Muslims commit 30 honor killing in America EVERY year!
    Obama has allowed Muslim groups with known terrorist connection, set up all over the U.S.A.—LIVING OFF OUR TAXPAYER MONEY! The Muslim Brotherhood own the Jihad training camps. Those same terrorist groups are banning together to start their own political party, a THIRD POLITICAL PARTY, against Communist Democrats and Republicans.
    Understand that Saudi Arabia is paying schools in ALL 50 states to teach Islam from their books of lies. Where the teachers are forcing OUR children to memories and repeat the Islam conversion prayers. That is indoctrination, and our government does nothing.
    Look at the judges who are swearing into office on a Qu’ran. No problem right? Like hell there is no problem. The Qu’ran requires it be the supreme law of the land, while our Constitution is the supreme law of our land. It is illegal to supersede our Constitutional laws, yet we are seeing that in the 9th court RIGHT NOW.
    Look at London where they elected a Muslim as major and he immediately made all the women move to the back of the room. Where he banned all posters with women in bathing suits on them. Where his is allowing Shariah Police to roam London enforcing Shariah laws or get beat up.
    Look at Sweden where 53.2% of their women have been raped, where they look the other way when the little blondes haired Sweds are raped by the Muslims rather then bring trouble down on the schools. Where the Muslims are insisting the Swedish flag, flown since the early 1300s be replaced with an Islamic flag.
    Do you know 80% of the mosques in America are KNOWN to be teaching Jihad.
    Do you know that stats on how many Muslims agree with ISIS? Let me give you a highlight from the renowned Pew Research:?•83 percent of Palestinian Muslims, 62 percent of Jordanians and 61 percent of Egyptians approve of jihadist attacks on Americans. World Public Opinion Poll (2009).?•1.5 Million British Muslims support the Islamic State, about half their total population. ICM (Mirror) Poll 2015.?•Two-thirds of Palestinians support the stabbing of Israeli civilians. Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (2015).?•45 percent of British Muslims agree that clerics preaching violence against the West represent “mainstream Islam.” BBC Radio (2015).?•38 percent of Muslim-Americans say Islamic State (ISIS) beliefs are Islamic or correct. The Polling Company CSP Poll (2015).?•One-third of British Muslim students support killing for Islam. Center for Social Cohesion (Wikileaks cable).?•78 percent of British Muslims support punishing the publishers of Muhammad cartoons. NOP Research.?•80 percent of young Dutch Muslims see nothing wrong with holy war against non-believers. Most verbalized support for pro-Islamic State fighters. Motivaction Survey (2014).?•68 percent of British Muslims support the arrest and prosecution of anyone who insults Islam. NOP Research.?•81 percent of Muslim respondents support the Islamic State (ISIS). Al-Jazeera poll (2015).?•Muhammad taught, and the Quran stresses, that a central tenet of Islam is to convert, enslave or kill the infidel. An infidel is anyone who is not Muslim or, depending on who’s doing the killing, belongs to a different sect of Islam. Those who fall into that elusive, perpetually mute category tagged “moderate Muslim” are also infidels or “idolaters.” They’re bad Muslims and, so, according to the Quran, not Muslims at all. “When the sacred months are over slay the idolaters wherever you find them,” commands Surah 9:5. “Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them.” Faithful Muslims, true followers of Muhammad, “slay the idolaters wherever [they] find them.”
    Brigitte Gabriel is a world-renown national security expert. Her concentration is on the – ahem – explosive rise in Islamic terrorism. She notes that there are 1.2 billion Muslims in the world. Of them, intelligence agencies estimate that 15-25 percent are orthodox Muslims, meaning they actually follow the teachings of the Quran.
    Do you know there are Jihad training camps all over America, where they are training guerrilla warfare with AK-47s, grenades, rocket launchers, C-4 explosives, and machine guns AND how to kidnap Americans and cut their throats! Hannity and O’Reilly both did shows on the camps and included drone videos.
    Do you know they caught 5 Arab men having come over our border with Mexico with a steel cylinder they believe was intended for a portable nuclear weapon? They now have the ability to bring in and build once here.
    Do you know they caught a Muslim woman just coming over the border with a detailed map of our oil pipe line?
    Do you know ISIS has a camp just over the border in the Mountains of Mexico? The drug smugglers have told us they have been bringing them in to sight out targets for years now.
    Do you know it only takes a hit to 9 points on our power grid to take it down and it will take two years to get up again, because the technology used for key points is now only made in China! They expect 9 out of 10 Americans to die it this happens. Renowned news reporter and author, Ted Koppel, did a big piece on this, stressing how dangerous this situation is.
    Do you know ISIS is killing with chemical warfare?
    Do you know the Communist have literally taken over the Democrat Party? Communism is not only a foreign it is ILLEGAL in America. FILES SHOWING COMMUNISM INFILTRATING THE DEMOCRATS. This is a hard read, but at least skim it down to Sen Ted Kennedy and then begin reading some. You will soon understand that the Communist own the souls of the Democrats. By the way Communist is illegal in America. They were set into place after WWII and never repealed although some tried. It also violates the Constitution, Article VI, the Supremacy clause, as Communism is an alternative form of government.

      It now starts and ends with the George W?

      • The lack of knowledge of the Constitution is damage done by the left, every High School Student use to have to PASS a one semester class on the Constitution before they could receive a High School Diploma. The left removed this requirement so the future generations would not know what the Constitution says and why the various clauses were written into the document. This lack of knowledge allowed Bill Clinton to violate the Constitution with impunity and allowed Obama to be so open about his illegal action that only a few people bothered to object. One of the things we have to do to create a long term solution is to re-instate the teaching of the Constitution, it will take time for the students to grow into informed voters but many of the solutions to the Marxist damage to the US require a long time to take effect. The trick is going to be finding a way to stop the left from once again stopping the teaching of the Constitution and what the Citizens duties are to the state.

        If we manage to restore full Federalism to the US we will also have to teach the state Constitution so the people will know what the the State Government is allowed to do.

        • I must admit that I have no clue as to what my state constitution says. I have never even seen it and I can’t recall ever hearing it mentioned.

  12. When Seattle police officers write use of force reports they no longer call a suspect a suspect.

    “Community member” is the new term. Several officers say the term is offensive, explaining their work with violent suspects.

    Sources point to the suspect who shot three officers last month after a downtown Seattle armed robbery. When officers involved in that incident were writing their use of force reports they were required to refer to the shooter, Damarius Butts, as a “community member,” not a suspect, police sources said.

  13. How Team Obama tried to hack the election

    New revelations have surfaced that the Obama administration abused intelligence during the election by launching a massive domestic-spy campaign that included snooping on Trump officials.

    The irony is mind-boggling: Targeting political opposition is long a technique of police states like Russia, which Team Obama has loudly condemned for allegedly using its own intelligence agencies to hack into our election.

    The revelations, as well as testimony this week from former Obama intel officials, show the extent to which the Obama administration politicized and weaponized intelligence against Americans.

    Thanks to Circa News, we now know the National Security Agency under President Barack Obama routinely violated privacy protections while snooping through foreign intercepts involving US citizens — and failed to disclose the breaches, prompting the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court a month before the election to rebuke administration officials.

    The story concerns what’s known as “upstream” data collection under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, under which the NSA looks at the content of electronic communication. Upstream refers to intel scooped up about third parties: Person A sends Person B an e-mail mentioning Person C. Though Person C isn’t a party to the e-mail, his information will be scooped up and potentially used by the NSA.

  14. North Korea leader Kim guides test of new anti-aircraft weapon

    SEOUL (Reuters) – North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has supervised the test of a new anti-aircraft weapon system and ordered its mass production and deployment throughout the country, the state news agency reported on Sunday, after weeks of defiant ballistic missile tests.

    The North’s KCNA news agency did not report the exact nature of the weapon or the time of the test but said it was organized by the Academy of National Defence Science, a blacklisted agency that is believed to be developing missiles and nuclear weapons.

    The North has been pushing to develop a wide range of weapon systems since early last year at an unprecedented pace including a long-range missile capable of striking the mainland United States and has in recent weeks tested its intermediate-range ballistic missile, making some technical advances.

    The reclusive state rejects U.N. and unilateral sanctions by other states against its weapons program as an infringement of its right to self defense and says the program is necessary to counter U.S. aggression.

    It last conducted a ballistic missile test a week ago.

    The United States denies any intention to attack the North.

    “Kim Jong Un … watched the test of a new type of anti-aircraft guided weapon system organized by the Academy of National Defence Science,” KCNA said on Sunday.

  15. Obama submarined Bush with a back channel to Iran – but the new ‘Kushner’ theme isn’t even that
    By J.E. Dyer May 27, 2017

    The only real purpose of recalling this Obama gambit from 2008 is to highlight the hypocrisy of Democrats in 2017, bewailing the suggestion that Jared Kushner, a member of Trump’s transition team, wanted to open a back channel to Russian contacts in December 2016.

    Why is that the only real purpose? Largely because the two cases are different in important ways. Partly because in neither case is there evidence of a prosecutable offense. But if you want to argue for these back-channel-opening capers as prosecutable offenses, Obama’s was worse. And that’s partly because there is credible evidence that it actually happened.

    In mid-2008, the George W. Bush administration surprised “hawkish” critics by conducting talks with representatives of the Iranian regime, the first time such contacts had been made at a senior level. The vehicle for this move was the on-again, off-again forum of “six-party (P5+1) talks” with Iran, anchored by the EU-3 and focused on deterrence of Iran’s nuclearization program.

    “CHRISTIANS have been warned to be on alert because jihadists could target churches for an attack.

    IS fanatics who claimed responsibility for the Manchester bomb have boasted: “What comes next will be more severe on the worshippers of the cross and their allies.”

    A Christian charity has revealed that the wording of the threat is similar to one used by IS in a video showing the beheadings of 30 Ethiopian Christians in Libya in 2015.

    Barnabas Fund, a charity which protects persecuted Christians, has urged church leaders to protect congregations.

    The charity has told clergy: “It is almost certain that sooner or later a church in the UK will suffer some form of terrorist attack.”…”

  20. REVEALED: Queen wanted to intervene directly when she heard news of Manchester bombing (express, May 28, 2017)
    http://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/810129/Manchester-bombing-queen-visit-barbaric-terror

    “THE Queen viewed the Manchester terror attack as such an affront to British values that she vowed to intervene directly as soon as she heard the news.

    The 91-year-old monarch personally worded the statement condemning the “barbarity” of the attack, one of the strongest ever put out by Buckingham Palace, before visiting injured children at the earliest opportunity.

    She also sanctioned a minute’s silence at a Buckingham Palace garden party on Tuesday, followed by the national anthem.

    It is understood the Queen had wanted to meet those caught up in Monday night’s atrocity on Wednesday but staff delayed the visit for a day to limit disruption at the hospital.

    She also requested a detailed briefing on the concert before meeting youngsters at the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital in order to have an understanding of Ariana Grande’s teenage fan base.

    As news of the tragedy swept the royal household, it was quickly decided that the Queen would be the first member of the Royal Family to pay tribute.

    Royal biographer Hugo Vickers said: “People look towards the Queen in times of crisis because she is such a calm and constant presence.”

    Her strongly worded statement read: “The whole nation has been shocked by the death and injury in Manchester last night of so many people, adults and children, who had just been enjoying a concert.”

    She added: “I would like to express my admiration for the way the people of Manchester have responded, with humanity and compassion, to this act of barbarity.”…”

    “FORMER SAS soldiers and ex-special forces troops are being shipped out to Spain’s tourist hot spots amid fears Islamic State could attack British holidaymakers.

    The former elite soldiers are set to patrol beaches as well as hotel grounds disguised as tourists in a bid to protect British sun seekers as they holiday in the Iberian country.

    Intelligence reports have indicated ISIS could be planning a repeat of the 2015 attack in Tunisia when 30 British holidaymakers were gunned down on a beach in north Africa.

    Areas of mainland Spain as well as the Canary Islands and the Balearic islands, which includes popular Ibiza, are said to be at risk…”

  22. Shock claims: FBI ‘warned UK’s security services months ago of Abedi’s plot to attack UK’ (express, May 28, 2017)
    http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/810212/claims-FBI-UK-security-services-Abedi-plot-attack-UK

    “THE FBI warned the UK’s security chiefs in January that Salman Abedi was plotting a jihadi attack in Britain, it has been reported.

    MI5 were reportedly told by the FBI that Abedi was part of a North African Islamic State cell plotting to strike a political target in Britain.

    The information is reported to have come from a US investigation into Abedi and his ties to terror groups in Libya.

    In 2016, it was alleged that US security services put Abedi on a terror watchlist used by agents to identify key suspects.

    The claim is likely to increase pressure on MI5 to reveal how and when it became aware of Abedi…”

    “For the second day in a row, Pope Francis has expressed his solidarity with Egypt’s Coptic Christians following an attack on a bus carrying Coptic pilgrims to a remote desert monastery.

    Francis led thousands of people in prayer Sunday for the victims, who Francis said were killed in “another act of ferocious violence” after having refused to renounce their Christian faith.

    Speaking from his studio window over St. Peter’s Square, Francis said: “May the Lord welcome these courageous witnesses, these martyrs, in his peace and convert the hearts of the violent ones.”

    The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for Friday’s attack, which killed 29 people.

    On Saturday during a visit to Genoa, Francis prayed for the victims and lamented that there were more martyrs today than in early Christian times.”

    https://www.rt.com/news/389957-saudi-death-sentence-torture/

    “Saudi Arabia has upheld a death sentence for a disabled man, arrested in 2012 on suspicion of taking part in protests and then tortured until he signed a “false confession,” according to a rights group. The decision leaves the man with one last appeal before King Salman makes his execution official.

    Munir Adam, 23, was arrested in 2012 for allegedly taking part in protests in the Eastern Province. According to Reprieve, a rights group of international lawyers and investigators, Saudi police “tortured” the man and “forced him to sign a false confession,” which then served “as the sole piece of evidence against him.”

    Adam, who already had impaired sight and hearing, allegedly lost complete hearing in one ear as a result of the beatings.

    Following the Specialized Criminal Court’s ruling, the accused can now appeal his sentence one last time before the Saudi monarch, King Salman, signs the execution warrant…”

    http://english.aawsat.com/ashrqalawsat/news-middle-east/turkish-military-says-kills-13-pkk-militants-northern-iraq

    “Turkey’s military killed 13 members of the militant Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) in air strikes in northern Iraq on Sunday, the military said in a statement.

    The warplanes struck seven PKK targets in the Avasin-Basyan region of northern Iraq, and killed militants believed to be preparing for an attack, the military said.

    In a separate air strike in Turkey’s southeastern province of Van late on Saturday, the military said warplanes had killed another 10 PKK militants.

    The PKK – which is considered a terrorist group by Turkey, the United States and the European Union – has carried out a three-decade insurgency in southeast Turkey and has camps in the mountains of northern Iraq, near the Turkish border.”

  29. Italy: MSF ship carrying 1,444 migrants & refugees docks at port of Naples
    A Doctors Without Borders (Medecins Sans Frontieres, MSF) ship with 1,449 migrants & refugees on board arrived in the port of Naples, Sunday, after a ten-hour long pick-up operation in the Mediterranean Sea, off Libya’s northern shoreline.

    MSF spokespersons Michele Trainiti confirmed that the ship collected 1,444 people, including “207 women on board, of which 22 pregnant, five babies and 40 children below five years of age.

    Trainiti added that “We have been very busy delivering emergency healthcare assistance. [There are] some injured and some people who got burnt by the mix [made] of salty water and the petrol of the inflatable boats. There are many people who have suffered from torture in Libya.”

    Among those aboard were also two bodies that the humanitarian operators found on an inflatable boat floating at sea. The bodies were retrieved by Mortuary Police after docking.

    The MSF conducted the operation with the support of several Italian Coast Guard vessels, which picked up people from 12 different water vessels.

    SOT, Michele Trainiti, Doctors Without Borders responsible of disembarking operations (Italian): “We are today in Naples. We are disembarking 1,444 people, whom we rescued off Libya’s northern shoreline in 12 different rescue operations. [There are] 207 women on board, of which 22 pregnant, five babies and 40 children below five years of age.”

    SOT, Michele Trainiti, Doctors Without Borders responsible of disembarking operations (Italian): “Many are Nigerians, but there are African nationals of all sorts really.”

    Reporter (Italian): “How many minors are there and are they accompanied?”

    Michele Trainiti, Doctors Without Borders responsible of disembarking operations (Italian): “We couldn’t identify all unaccompanied minors because, since the ship is so overcrowded, we couldn’t even move through its many gangboards and decks. We have been very busy delivering emergency healthcare assistance. [There are] some injured and some people who got burnt by the mix [made] of salty water and the petrol of the inflatable boats. There are many people who have suffered from torture in Libya.”

  30. Socialism in Venezuela is Literally Killing its Citizens
    In the news lately, readers may have seen horrific images of strife in Venezuela — hundreds of thousands of protesters in the streets clashing with riot police, and heavily armored officers firing fireworks, tear gas and marbles into crowds. Demonstrators have burned police officers with Molotov cocktails.

    These riots are the product of years’ worth of Socialist government policies that have caused widespread poverty and starvation through measures of austerity, despite the fact that Venezuela as a country is home to the largest known oil reserves in the world — greater than those held by Saudi Arabia.

    As a nation, Venezuela has slowly slid downhill as the populist rule of former strongman Hugo Chávez gave way to the government of his appointed successor Nicolás Maduro, who was elected in 2013 with just 50.6 percent of the country’s vote. While Chávez initially was popular for the Socialist decrees he instituted that helped thousands of the nation’s poorest citizens, his reforms increasingly took on a more hardcore nature, and the weakness of the country’s economy exposed the reality that these measures not only were not improving people’s lives, but were harming Venezuela as a state.

    Johannesburg – Robbers tortured a 64-year-old woman with a drill when they attacked her at her home on a farm in the Vaal area on Friday night, police said.

    Spokesperson Lt-Col Lungelo Dlamini said she was attacked by three men on the farm on the Kalbasfontein road between Fochville and Carletonville.

    “They used a drill to torture her,” said Dlamini.

    ER24 spokesperson Russel Meiring said earlier that when they arrived on the scene, they found three dead dogs, and the woman lying in a pool of blood.

  32. The FBI warned UK security chiefs that Manchester jihadi Salman Abedi was plotting an attack in Britain, an inside source has claimed.
    MI5 were warned in January by the U.S. intelligence service that Abedi was part of a North African terror cell planning to strike a political target in Britain according to the source, the Mail on Sunday reports.

    A U.S. investigation into the Manchester bomber’s links to terror groups in Libya brought the information to light, and U.S. security services placed Abedi on a watchlist identifying key terror suspects in 2016.

    “In early 2017 the FBI told MI5 that Abedi belonged to a North African terror gang based in Manchester, which was looking for a political target in this country,” the source said.

  33. MI5 reveals that up to 23,000 jihadis are living in Britain

    Is anyone surprised? Theresa May and her ilk have the Britain they have chosen, the Britain they have created. For years, May and her cohorts have hounded, stigmatized, and demonized foes of jihad terror, falsely claiming that they represent a “far-right” equivalent to jihad terrorists, while appeasing and accommodating Muslim groups in Britain, many of which were by no stretch of the imagination “moderate,” and allowing numerous jihad preachers to operate without hindrance.

    Britain has a steadily lengthening record of admitting jihad preachers without a moment of hesitation. Syed Muzaffar Shah Qadri’s preaching of hatred and jihad violence was so hardline that he was banned from preaching in Pakistan, but the UK Home Office welcomed him into Britain.

    The UK Home Office recently admitted Shaykh Hamza Sodagar into the country, despite the fact that he has said: “If there’s homosexual men, the punishment is one of five things. One – the easiest one maybe – chop their head off, that’s the easiest. Second – burn them to death. Third – throw ’em off a cliff. Fourth – tear down a wall on them so they die under that. Fifth – a combination of the above.”

  35. ‘We do not need this!’ Tusk forced to listen as leaders savage plans for EU integration (express, May 28, 2017)
    http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/810363/European-leaders-Donald-Tusk-EU-integration-Macron-Merkel

    “LEADERS from Eastern Europe launched a stinging attack on the plans of Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel – while their EU ally Donald Tusk stood by in horror.

    Prime Ministers from the Czech Republic and Slovakia both launched a warning shot to Angela Merkel, Emmanuel Macron and Jean-Claude Juncker against pushing EU integration.

    The leaders delivered the attack on Mr Macron’s plan to “relaunch the EU” on a panel alongside a shocked Donald Tusk, who heads the European Council.

    The European leaders were quizzed on the emergence of a Franco-German “grand reform plan” to push EU integration, which would take more power from states.

    During the discussion at the GLOBSEC conference this morning, Slovakian leader Robert Fico said Balkan countries would not stand by as Mr Macron and Mrs Merkel reformed the EU.

    This comes as the German and French leaders agreed to reopen European treaties and draw up a “common road map” for Europe.

    According to the discussions, Mr Macron wants a joint budget, parliament and finance minister for the eurozone.

    Speaking at the conference, Mr Fico shot down this idea: “What Europe needs is a good open discussion. We need more respect for our member states.

    “I do not want to reopen treaties. It would be wrong for the EU to focus only on itself, on making new institutions, creating posts, taking more power.

    “Do not touch or reopen these fundamental treaties. We do not need these discussions. Let’s not talk about things that divide us.

    “When Europe talks about the obligatory quota for migrants or fining those who don’t take in refugees, this is too far.

    “If they dare do this, it will throw a rock among pigeons!

    “It would be impossible to agree. I would not dare touch the foundations.”

    Czech leader Bohuslav Sobotka added: “Cosmetic changes are needed, nothing deep like what France and Germany want.

    “We should focus on common-sense plans, those useful to our people. We are against opening up the basic treaties.

    “We should focus on borders and economic initiatives. Let’s not get dragged into negotiations among reforming Europe.

    “I do not want the conversation to disrupt the single market. We are a practical nation.”

    For his part, Donald Tusk dismissed the idea that Mr Macron’s plans were controversial.

    He added that new institutions and groups were at the heart of the European Union.

    Mr Macron, when elected, pledged to “relaunch Europe” and said that treaty change should not be taboo.

    His German counterpart, Chancellor Merkel, agreed that she would help on this.

    However, this has prompted outrage among smaller EU states.

    Even Merkel’s right-hand man Wolfgang Schauble called the reforms “too radical” and “not realistic”.”

  36. Judge dismisses lawsuit against Clinton by Benghazi families (abcnews, May 28, 2017)
    http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/judge-dismisses-lawsuit-clinton-benghazi-families-47685070

    “A federal judge threw out a lawsuit against Hillary Clinton by the parents of two Americans killed in the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, ruling the former secretary of state didn’t defame them when disputing allegations that she had lied.

    The lawsuit also alleged the former Democratic presidential candidate’s use of a private email server caused the death of their sons, Sean Smith and Tyrone Woods, because it exposed terrorists to sensitive information. They claimed Clinton lied when she allegedly told them it was a YouTube video that prompted the consulate attack.

    “The untimely death of plaintiffs’ sons is tragic, and the Court does not mean to minimize the unspeakable loss that plaintiffs have suffered in any way,” U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson in Washington wrote in a 29-page opinion released Friday. But Berman said legal standards required the case to be dismissed.

    Berman ruled the parents didn’t sufficiently challenge that Clinton wasn’t acting in her official capacity when she used the private server, and that the families didn’t put forward appropriate claims that Clinton defamed them or put them in a false light…”

    • Berman ruled the parents didn’t sufficiently challenge that Clinton wasn’t acting in her official capacity when she used the private server, and that the families didn’t put forward appropriate claims that Clinton defamed them or put them in a false light…”

      This is totally outrageous. Hillary’s use of private servers was specifically to evade any possibility for FOIA (Freedom Of Information Act) inquiries regarding how she conducted her government business. Otherwise, why go to all the expense and trouble of setting up such private facilities? More importantly, why was it so important to rely upon private servers that lacked even modest security measures when well-structured government data centers were available at no charge?

      Generously assigning this criminal hag a benevolent motive for committing such an egregious violation of governmental ethics and security is nothing but yet another layer of whitewash being applied to this monumental affront to all American.

      • It was a Judge appointed by Obama, they have been ruling based on politics for way too many decades, hopefully higher Judges will over rule him and change the suite to a Judge who will be fair.

  38. http://nypost.com/2017/05/27/jewish-teen-claims-muslim-classmates-threatened-to-kill-him/

    A Jewish teenager from Britain says he feared for his life at a top Berlin school because of violent bullying by Muslim classmates.

    “I was terrified and just went to the ground” when the bullies pulled a fake gun and threatened to kill him, the 14-year-old boy told The Sunday Times of London, which identified him only by his surname, Ferdinand.

    “Everyone burst into laughter and called me gay,” Ferdinand — who is the grandson of Holocaust survivors — said of his classmates at the Friedenau Gemeinschaftsschule.

    Ferdinand told the Times he suffered daily taunts and frequent painful kicking and punching attacks by students of Middle Eastern and Turkish origin.
