AlShabaab militants have killed at least 18 civilians and destroyed trucks laden with relief food in an attack in Somalia’s central region


Al-Shabaab
...... the personification of Somali state failure...
Death Eaters killed at least 18 civilians and destroyed trucks laden with relief food in an overnight attack in Somalia’s central region, residents and a state news agency said on Saturday.

The murderous Moslem group launched the attack in the Hiran area in the semi-autonomous state of Hirshabelle in central Somalia. The trucks were transporting food supplies from Baladweyne city to Mahas town, residents said.

"Al-Shabaab killed 18 civilians and burnt... several trucks of relief food heading to Mahas town last night," Farah Aden, a local elder told Rooters by phone.

State news agency Sonna reported that al-Shabaab fighters had burnt trucks carrying relief food to Mahas and "killed most of the people on board the vehicles."
Garowe adds:
Further reports indicate that at least five people who were responding to the Al-Shabaab attack died after their car was hit by a landmine near the Afar-Irdod area, a few miles from where the militants killed the 17 civilians.

The five were rushing to pick up some of the victims of the attack. The death toll becomes now 22 people.

State media reported that the attack happened in the interior villages within the Hiraan region where the Somali National Army and allies have been executing operations against the militants, who control huge swathes of rural central and southern Somalia.

During the attack, witnesses said, locals who got wind tried to rescue but were in return hit by landmines, an indication that the militants were determined to make the attack successful. Due to limited public transport in the region, locals usually prefer food aid trucks which are at times not accompanied by security personnel.

Death toll from Al-Shabaab attack in Somalia rises to 20

[ShabelleMedia] Al-Shabab killed at least 20 people and burned seven vehicles that were transporting food relief in the central Hiran region of Somalia on Saturday morning.

Four trucks carrying goods and three passenger minibuses were set on fire near the remote town of Mahas.

“Passengers were killed, wounded or just narrowly escaped on foot,” the region’s former governor Abdifitah Hassan Afrah told the dpa news agency. “Families were looking for their loved ones this morning.”

The convoy was being reportedly escorted by Somali authorities and African Union peacekeeping troops at the time.

Al-Shabaab claims it killed locally mobilized Ma’wisley militia members

[ShabelleMedia] Al-Shabab confirmed the attack in the Hiran region and claimed to have killed 20 locally mobilized Ma’wisley militia members.

The Somali government condemned the “barbaric” attack and reiterated its support for local mobilization against the group that holds significant parts of central and southern Somalia.

Somali state media and residents say al-Shabab killed over 20 people and burned seven vehicles transporting food in the Hiran region Saturday morning.

Residents said the attack was in retaliation for a local mobilization against the al-Qaida-affiliated group.

The attack came a day after government forces destroyed landmines that al-Shabab had planted on the busy road connecting Beletweyne and Mataban with the intent to target travelers.

I Killed My Parents For Insulting Prophet Muhammad – Nigerian Man In Police Cell Admits


Munkaila Ahmadu, who killed his parents in Gagarawa Local Government Area of Jigawa State, said he did so because they uttered blasphemous comments against the Prophet Muhammad.

The 37-year-old singer had killed both his parents and injured two other people with a pestle in Zarada Sabuwa village in the Gagarawa Local Government Area of Jigawa State, northwest Nigeria.

According to Premium Times, the member of the Tijjaniyya Islamic sect said his parents mocked and called him a mad person and opposed him being a praise singer for the prophet.

He has now been arrested by the Nigerian police.

Ahmadu said, "I killed them because they refused to accept the truth concerning the Prophet Muhammad (SAW). I killed them because they abused the prophet and their punishment is death, there is no repentance for any person who abused the Prophet," he was quoted as saying.

"I am a praise singer for the prophet, this year I intend to do a video for my song and God willing, I will do that, I will be free because God is with the righteous person,; that is why I am not worrying over my action.

"My parent did not like the prophet Muhammad because I adore him, they called me a mad person, I pleaded with my father to support my work (praise singing), and I told him that I don’t womanise, I am not a gambler, I don’t do drugs, and I don’t steal, but he refused to.
"But I do kill"
"My mother used to go to neighbouring towns to blackmail me, telling people to reject me whenever I came to sing praises to the prophet because I am mad and I refused to work on the farm.
"And a lazy f*ck"
"I am now in police custody because, by human thinking, I did a wrong thing but in the sight of God and the Prophet; what I did is the right thing."

In the Bosom may Ahmadu nestle,
The Merciful's ultimate vessel,
For such was his ardor
He'd be no mere martyr
But murdered his folks with a pestle!

Sea Pirates Kill Five Boat Passengers In Rivers State

#1  Stolen:

There are various underground rules about taking a boat to Cuba, and at the top of that list is to leave firearms behind — that is, if you don't want to get them confiscated by customs officials and possibly never returned.

Captains who want alternate means of protecting their boat may turn to the following:
• Kerosene
• Paint thinner
• Mason Jars
• A 12-Gauge flare gun with many extra flares

At least that was the advice given to the captain of my boat by a former U.S. special forces servicemember who currently operates out of Cuba. Operating on the open seas, even in the Caribbean carries a certain amount of risk. To ward off and prevent and unwanted boardings or attacks, our contact recommends the following:

Mix equal parts kerosene and paint thinner in the mason jars. If confronted by an enemy boat, hurl the jars at their vessel. Make sure the canning lid isn't too tight, so that the liquid will leak if the jar doesn't smash. Then launch some 12-gauge flare rounds at whomever is threatening you.

Also works for Antifa Flambé!

Arabia
Al-Qaeda in Yemen releases video of kidnapped UN worker
[ALARABIYA] Al-Qaeda’s Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
branch released a video on Saturday showing a United Nations
...where theory meets practice and practice loses...
worker who was kidnapped in the war-torn country more than six months ago, the SITE Intelligence Group reported.

Five UN staff members were kidnapped in Yemen’s southern province of Abyan
...a governorate of Yemen. The region was a base to the Aden-Abyan Islamic Army terrorist group until it dropped the name and joined al-Qaeda. Its capital is Zinjibar. In March 2011, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula declared the governate an Islamic Emirate after seizing control of the region. The New York Times fastidiously reported that those in control, while Islamic hard boyz, are not in fact al-Qaeda, but something else that looks, tastes, smells, and acts the same. Yemeni government forces launched an effort to re-establish control of the region when President-for-Life Saleh was tossed and the carnage continues...
in February while returning to the port city of Aden "after having completed a field mission," UN spokesperson Eri Kaneko told AFP at the time.

In Saturday’s video message, apparently recorded on August 9, Akam Sofyol Anam, identified by SITE as Bangladeshi, urges "the UN, the international community, the humanitarian organizations, to please come forward... and meet the demands of my captors," without outlining the demands.

He said he was facing "serious health trouble," including heart problems, and needed "immediate medical support and hospitalization," according to SITE, which monitors bully boy activity.

Anam, who SITE identified as the "director of the United Nations Office of Security and Safety in Yemen," said he and four colleagues were kidnapped on February 11.

Yemen has been gripped by conflict since the Iran-backed Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
s took control of the capital Sanaa in 2014, triggering military intervention by the Arab Coalition in support of the government the following year.

Hundreds of thousands have died, directly from fighting as well as indirectly, and millions have been displaced in what the UN has called the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.

Lawyers write to Registrar General HC to seek termination of Mian Qayoom's license under Advocate's Act
A group of lawyers has written a letter to the Registrar General Jammu and Kashmir
...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....
, and Ladakh High Court seeking the immediate suspension and termination of licenses of Advocate Mian Abdul Qayoom.

Greater Kashmir is in exclusive possession of a copy of the letter written by a group of lawyers seeking Advocate Qayoom’s immediate suspension and termination of licence under the Advocates Act and other relevant provisions of the law.

The group of six lawyers, in this letter to the Registrar General, has written, "Advocate Qayoom committed misconduct of a grave nature by declaring that he does not believe in the constitution of the country. Still, with his unlawful immunity, he with his nefarious character manages to remain on the rolls as a practising lawyer holding a licence issued under the Advocates Act of 1961, a statute created and emanating from our constitution."

A group of lawyers has also sent copies of the letter to the Chief Justice of India, Prime Minister of India, Union Law Minister, Chief Justice of J&K, Lt Governor J&K, Chairman Bar Council of India, and Chief Secretary of J&K.

The letter quotes the group of lawyers as saying, "Advocate Abdul Qayoom Dar alias Mian Abdul Qayoom internationally tried to malign the Indian state’s integration with Jammu and Kashmir by unlawful means to wage a war against the Indian state and to upkeep the narrative of Pakistain’s agenda using the platform of being a lawyer backed by the power of gun at the sole instance of ISI and Pakistain. This is even though he is using a bar enrolment with License No 472/1979, which ex-facia is a fake and fraudulent license or suspected to be procured by fraudulent means."

The letter of the group of lawyers states: "Advocate Qayoom a patriarch, an ideologue, and a frontline activist of the secessionist-terrorist campaign in J&K has gone all out to weaponise his professional position as a lawyer against the county in collusion with terror networks. He owes his ideological leanings originally to the radical outfit Jamaat-e-Islami
...The Islamic Society, founded in 1941 in Lahore by Maulana Sayyid Abul Ala Maududi, aka The Great Apostosizer. The Jamaat opposed the independence of Bangladesh but has operated an independent branch there since 1975. It maintains close ties with international Mohammedan groups such as the Moslem Brotherhood. the Taliban, and al-Qaeda. The Jamaat's objectives are the establishment of a pure Islamic state, governed by Sharia law. It is distinguished by its xenophobia, and its opposition to Westernization, capitalism, socialism, secularism, and liberalist social mores...
(Jel), with whom he has remained associated since his college days. The JeI is not only viewed adversely in India but has also been banned in Bangladesh as well as in Moslem Middle East countries like Egypt, UAE, and Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
where it operates by the name of Ikhwan-ul-Moslemoon being the ideological twin of JeI of the subcontinent."

According to the contents of the letter, Advocate Qayoom was solely responsible for making the High Court Bar Association (HCBA) a constituent part of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) and drafting the constitution of HCBA wherein it was provided in the aims and objectives to secure secession of J&K from the Union of India.

"He albeit practising the Indian law declared in the open court in 2010 that he does not believe in the Constitution of India which is the main source of all laws of the land. By deposing in a matter before the High Court at Srinagar on April 6, 2010, in Contempt Petition No 11/2010 (OWP No 767/2010) titled Bar Association versus Mirza Saleem Beigh and another of J&K and others, he said, ’I am not the citizen of India. I am a permanent resident of J&K State. I do not have faith in the Constitution of India as it has been eroded by you,’" the letter mentions Advocate Qayoom.

The letter also states, "Heading the legal cell established and funded by Pakistain’s ISI, he along with a battery of lawyers would plead and secure favourable decisions in all the cases about entities involved in terrorism and secessionism since 1990 funded by ISI. This gang of lawyers headed by him would also ensure that no one pleads on behalf of the State and government lawyers would most often resort to mere tokenism than actual pleading for fear of getting killed at the hands of turbans who would be so directed by Advocate Qayoom."

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Iran arrests 'spies linked to Israel'
[SHAFAQ] On Saturday, the Iranian authorities arrested men for spying for Israel in the north of Iran.

According to Iranian media, the General Intelligence Department in Mazandaran province, northern Iran, reported that 12 people belonging to the "Zionist Baha'i organization" were arrested in various cities.
Baha’i? The heretical offshoot of Islam was invented in Iran, but moved its headquarters in the 19th century to Haifa. The Mullahs harass the ones who remained behind as badly as they do the local Jews, and are equally suspicious of them because they both have an Israel connection.
Two leaders of this group were trained by the "House of Justice" organization in Tel Aviv. The Department pointed out.
The General Intelligence Department in Mazandaran province confuses Tel Aviv with Haifa, which is their Vatican or Mecca, if you will. Every Baha’i who is able is supposed to make pilgrimage at least once in their lifetime. They have to sign up ahead of time to get their appointed day... some years in the future.
Last July, the Iranian police arrested the alleged leader and four other members of a spy network they suspect is affiliated with Israel's secret services, Iranian law enforcement authorities have said.
Bahai = Devils
They did not give the nationality of those arrested but said they had received training for armed operations and sabotage.

Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and Israel are longtime foes and are currently locked in a dispute over Iran's nuclear program.

Israel accuses Iran of backing holy warrior attacks against it. At the same time, Iran says Israel has carried out many killings of Iranian officials.

Rockets targeted the Al-Omar field in Syria, media


On Saturday, explosions were heard, and smoke rose at the Al-Omar oil field, where the American forces are deployed in eastern Deir Ez-Zor province. The Syrian TV reported.

Iran’s Al-Alam TV channel said that three rockets had targeted the Al-Omar field without giving further details.

Last August, the U.S. military hit several targets in the Syrian city of Mayadin in parts of Deir Ez-Zor under government control, where pro-Iranian forces have a strong presence and have long targeted the nearby Al Omar oil field on the eastern bank of the Euphrates where the U.S. coalition has their most significant base in Syria.
