[THEGUARDIAN] Asian men participated in abuse of two girls from troubled backgrounds, one of whom, while aged 12 or 13, was passed between 60 mainly Asian men
Nice that they convicted the six, but oughtn't the sixty be hauled up in the dock too?

Asian doesn't mean Chinese in this case. Pakistanis or similar.
[DETROIT.CBSLOCAL] A group is planning to unveil an 8-foot-tall bronze statue featuring a goat-headed Satan in bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit ... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang... during a gathering that's being billed as the "largest public satanic ceremony in history." We've descended to the public worship of Evil.
The Satanic Temple has said Saturday's private event will be open only to people with tickets, $25 each. Invitations to "The Unveiling" summoned guests to prepare for "a night of chaos, noise, and debauchery... Come dance with the Devil and experience history in the making." The event location is not being announced publicly and is known only to those with tickets. I doubt the statue's going to come to life or that anybody's going to turn into a pillar of salt.
The group said the bronze Baphomet monument, which weighs about one ton and has never been seen before in public, "is not only an unparalleled artistic triumph, but stands as a testament to plurality and the power of collective action." The statue, which backed by an inverted pentagram and flanked by statues of two young children gazing up at the creature, shows Satan with horns, hooves, wings and a beard.
The group went on to say the unveiling event "will serve as a call-to-arms from which we'll kick off our largest fight to date in the name of individual rights to free exercise against self-serving theocrats."
Photography is strictly prohibited at the 18-and-older event unless, of course, you're a $75 VIP ticket holder. Those partygoers will have an exclusive opportunity to be photographed seated on the Baphomet monument.

Aren't there a lot of Muslims in and around Detroit?
Do the Muslims have issues with "idolaters" "pagans" and most especially with "Devil Worshipers"?
I wonder how we could, er, "introduce" these 2 groups to each other?
#3
And this is looking more and more like an old testament prophecy coming to be, as morality crumbles, and society decomposes with it. "Collective Action", hm? Where have I heard that before.. Ah the Nazis, the Communists, and most recently the Progressives.

what do the buddhists, shintos, hindus and aztecs think of a bronze baphomet? the egyptian worshipers of Set? How about Zeus and aphrodite worshippers? ... to them it doesnt mean anything
Or the aboriginal dreamtime? no response there...
this only ticks off the abrahamic religions - only 3 religions out of hundreds in human history, and all three evolved in one tiny geographic box of the middle east among bronze-age primitives who were not even the most advanced humans on the planet at the time.
Every religion thinks it is true, and yet they cannot all be right. why would a divine entity bother revealing itself to those peasants and not the far more advanced chinese or mayans?
Perhaps they are all equal glimpses of the untrue.

Proverbs 6:16-19King James Version (KJV)16 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
But it isn't aimed at them. It's aimed squarely at the Christian majority -- still about 70% of the American population, and perhaps even more of the population remaining in Detroit -- to rub their noses in the fact that they can't do a thing about it. Also the Aztecs, should there be any in Detroit, as they all were converted to Christianity centuries ago, as were the followers of Set, Zeus and Aphrodite. The rest of your list are of such vanishingly small proportions of the American citizenry, and even smaller than that in Detroit, as to be of no account whatsoever in the equation.
It should be noted that the invitation is to a night of debauchery, not a night of Satan-worship, so it seems safe to assume that most will be there for debauchery rather than free exercise of religion. It all sounds drearily vulgar, the kind of thing where everyone pretends as hard as ever they can to look like they're having a wonderful time instead of passing around the usual diseases, throwing up in corners, and going home with a blinding headache.

I smell an opportunity here. The scrap price of bronze is $1.45 a pound. So here is the estimate:
Scrap gross value: 2000 lb x $1.45/lb = $2900
Less expenses: boom truck and statue removal $500
Less priest or clergyman exorcising statue until it is melted $200
Net profit: $2200
Pass profit on to those hurt by Satan's servants or whatever you feel is worthwhile: priceless

"Those partygoers will have an exclusive opportunity to be photographed seated on the Baphomet monument."
They used to keep that part of the ritual private, didn't they?

In case US-World Globies + aligned are wondering why the Virgin Mary re-appeared to warn Humanity, WELL WONDER NO MORE!
[LOSANGELES.CBSLOCAL] The body of a mystery man was decomposing in his car in the ritzy Pacific Palisades neighborhood for nearly two weeks before he was found by authorities, an attorney said. I seen dis movie.
Inside his home, detectives discovered more than 1,200 guns, scopes, 6.5 tons of ammunition, bows and arrows, knives, machetes and $230,000 in cash after he was found on Friday. Residents of the townhome complex where the man lived were evacuated Saturday as investigators removed the weapons and ammunition.
They also located eight of the 14 vehicles stashed around Los Angeles registered to the man, including an SUV designed to drive underwater.
Who he was and how he came to accumulate the arsenal and vehicles are questions authorities are still trying to answer.
Veteran defense attorney Harland Braun represents the man’s fiancee Catherine Nebron and identified him as Jeffrey Alan Lash.
That’s also the name authorities are working with and they’re in touch with a relative to try to officially identify the body, said Craig Harvey, the coroner’s chief of investigations.
Lash and Nebron were together for 17 years and she believed him when he told her that he worked as an undercover operative for unnamed government agencies, Braun said Wednesday.
“The story itself sounds totally crazy but then how do you explain all this?” Braun said. “There’s no evidence he was a drug dealer or he stole these weapons, or had any criminal source of income, no stolen property, all the stuff you’d look for.”

One of us, he will be missed, I mean if he's really gone.

Follow the money...to some management consulting firm with contracts in various countries.
I'd like to get a look at his passport(s) and see where he's been.
If everything is legally owned he is either way over the top with paranoia or he's a legit black operative. If he's one of those, this will quietly disappear and the girlfriend will go live in Hawaii on his pension.

"A house built of mud in the outskirts of Abbottabad collapsed due to the earthquake, leaving two women and a young boy dead and a minor girl injured," senior police official Sher Akbar Khan told AFP.
The quake was felt in several cities in the provinces of eastern Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India.

Provincial police front man Syed Sarwar Hussaini said the family was suspected of superstitious practices and was inviting women to their home where they were encouraged to take part in illegitimate activities -- prostitution.
He said the illegitimate activities by the family was discovered after a man was looking to eliminate the family through food poisoning or using explosives but was stopped by the police.
According to Hussaini, the man was identified as Din Mohammad who was visiting the family for superstitious practices and found regarding the family's involvement in promoting prostitution as well.
Hussaini also added that further investigations have been launched by the police to ascertain facts regarding the case.
This is not the first time illegitimate activities have been uncovered in northern Kunduz province but numerous incidents have taken place in the past where the women and girls have been murdered for taking part in such activities.
However, there's more than one way to skin a cat... the families and individuals continue to their activities despite urban patrols by police to restrict such activities and maintain order.

[AlAhram] The official opening of the new 72-kilometre shipping lane is schedule for 6 August
The new shipping lane will supplement the existing canal which links the Red Sea to the Mediterranean, and to develop the zone around it into an industrial and commercial hub.
The upgraded canal is expected to speed up traffic along the waterway and to boost its revenues, projected to more than double from $5.3 billion at the end of 2015 to $13.2 billion in 2023, according to official estimates.
Built 146 years ago, the Suez Canal is one of the world's most heavily used shipping lanes, earning Egypt billions of dollars in annual revenues.
Excavation of the new channel started in August 2014.

[ALMANAR.LB] Negotiators have proposed establishing a court to try possible genocide and war crimes in South Sudan, in the latest power-sharing peace proposal hoped to end a 19-month civil war.
Peace talks, led by the eight-nation East African IGAD bloc, have been taking place in Æthiopia almost as long as the war, resulting in at least seven failed agreements or ceasefires, all broken within days or even hours.
An IGAD draft "compromise agreement" proposes an independent hybrid court, set up in collaboration with the African Union ...a union consisting of 53 African states, most run by dictators of one flavor or another. The only all-African state not in the AU is Morocco. Established in 2002, the AU is the successor to the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), which was even less successful... and United Nations ...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks... , able to try possible genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes.
US President Barack Obama Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it. Not smack, though.... , who travels to Æthiopia on Sunday, is expected to push peace efforts in South Sudan.
The 77-page IGAD draft deal, released Saturday, proposes offering rebels the post of first vice president, alongside another vice president, and offering the government 53 percent of national ministerial seats and the rebels 33 percent, with other parties making up the rest.

[BLOOMBERG] Burundian opposition parties that boycotted presidential elections rejected the results, which gave Pierre Nkurunziza a third term that opponents say is illegal.
A new vote should be held that gives politicians outside the ruling party the room to campaign freely with international observers monitoring the process, said Frederic Bamvuginyumvira, a front man for a group of 10 political parties, in a Friday phone interview. He said their struggle would continue until new elections are organized, without specifying any plans.
U.S. President Barack Obama I've now been in 57 states -- I think one left to go... also criticized Burundi's elections, describing them as "not credible," in a presser held Saturday in Kenya's capital, Nairobi.
Nkurunziza's decision in April to stand again triggered a public backlash and an attempted military coup, which was quickly extinguished. Street demonstrations in the capital, Bujumbura, led to fighting with security forces, leaving at least 77 people dead and spreading fears that drove more than 170,000 refugees to neighboring countries.

A former Communist-era prison commander has been sentenced to 20 years in jail after being convicted of crimes against humanity in the first such trial in Romania.
Alexandru Visinescu, 89, ran the notorious Ramnicu Sarat prison from 1956 to 1963, where inmates were allegedly tortured and starved. At least 12 people are said to have died as a result of the abuse.
Mr Visinescu denied the charges, saying he was just following orders.
That didn't work in 1945, either...
Prosecutors had sought a 25-year sentence, arguing that Mr Visinescu oversaw an "extermination regime" at the Ramnicu Sarat prison camp in the east of the country.
Nicknamed "the prison of silence" because detainees were held in solitary confinement, the facility housed intellectuals, dissidents, priests and others deemed enemies of the Communist Party.
