Arabia
Saudi Arabia Bans Import of Fruits, Vegetables from Lebanon over Drug Smuggling Concerns
[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] 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...
announced on Friday that it was banning the import of fruits and vegetables from Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
as of Sunday due to drug smuggling concerns, read a statement carried by the Saudi Press Agency.

The statement said the Kingdom took the decision in line with its laws and international agreements to combat drugs smuggling in all of its forms.

It added that Saudi authorities have noticed increased drug smuggling activity targeting the Kingdom from Lebanon or the transit of goods through Lebanese territories.

Lebanese products are being used to smuggle drugs into the Kingdom or through its transit points to neighboring countries, it continued.

The statement said that Lebanese authorities have been repeatedly urged to curb such activity, but to no avail.

Saudi authorities are therefore forced to ban the import and transit of Lebanese fruits and vegetables as of Sunday and "until the concerned Lebanese authorities provide the sufficient and trusted guarantees to stop the systematic smuggling operations against the Kingdom."

The Interior Ministry, with the concerned authorities, will continue to monitor other shipments arriving from Lebanon.

It vowed that it will continue to crack down on drug abuse, whether from Lebanon or other countries.

Europe
German court convicts ISIS woman of crimes against humanity for Yazidi enslavement
[Rudaw] A German court this week convicted a woman of crimes against humanity for her involvement in the enslavement of a Yazidi woman, lawyers for the prosecution announced on Friday.

The 35-year-old woman, identified only as Nurten J,
...emigrated to ISIS in Syria in 2015 with her child for the express purpose of becoming one of their harridans. There she married a German jihadi, and with him had several more little future jihadis for ISIS. What became of the sperm donor is unknown, but she was captured and imprisoned by the SDF, escaped to Turkey, and was captured and sent back to Germany to be arrested...
was sentenced to four years and three months in prison on several charges, including membership of a terrorist organization, serious deprivation of liberty, and aiding and abetting crimes against humanity, according to a statement from the UK-based Doughty Street Chambers, which represents the Yazidi woman listed as a co-plaintiff.

The defendant was said to have used the Yazidi woman, taken captive by the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) following its offensive on the Iraqi district of Shingal in 2014, for slave labour on 50 occasions. She was arrested upon returning to Germany in July of last year.

"There is no punishment that could atone for the injustice that has been done to the Yazidi community. For me, it is irrelevant whether the accused is in jug or will eventually be free again. The only thing that matters is that something like this never happens again," said the Yazidi woman, who remained anonymous for safety reasons.

The Yazidi ethno-religious minority suffered uniquely under ISIS, subject to a brutal genocide which saw more than 5,000 women and girls kidnapped to be used as sexual and domestic slaves. Thousands remain missing.

Germany has pursued several cases against suspected ISIS members, particularly for their involvement in crimes against the Yazidis.

A woman was sentenced to three-and-a-half years in prison in October for ISIS membership and enslaving a Yazidi child who later died of thirst.
That’s Omaima Abdi, wife of rapper Dennis Cuspert, who made her way back to Germany in 2016, then worked as an event planner until she was caught.

President Macron vows to 'never give up the fight against Islamist terorrism' after knifeman screaming 'Allahu Akbar' stabs woman to death before being shot dead by cops at French police station
[Daily Mail - Where America Gets Its News] Emmanuel Macron has vowed to 'never give up' the fight against Islamist terrorism after a female police worker was killed by a knifeman who shouted 'Allahu Akbar' in France today.

Named by police as Stephanie M, the 49-year-old mother-of-two was slashed in the throat by a Tunisian delivery driver at 2.20pm today as she worked in a police station in the leafy Paris suburb of Rambouillet.

French prosecutors have opened a terror probe after the killing which was carried out by the 36-year-old who arrived in France illegally in 2009 before he was given leave to remain in 2019.

Stephanie, an admin worker, who had worked for the police since 1993, had just 'popped out of the station to change the parking disc on her car' when she was pounced on by the attacker in the lobby.

Investigators said the killer had been scouting the site before the attack in broad daylight.

Emmanuel Macron, who was in Chad today for the funeral of their late president Idriss Deby, said in a statement: 'She was a police officer. Stephanie was killed in her Rambouillet police station, on the already damaged land of Yvelines.

'The nation is with her family, her colleagues and the police. In the fight against Islamist terrorism, we will not give up.'

France's counter-terrorism unit has taken over the investigation into the killing.

Francois Bersani, a police union official, said the attacker slipped into the building before shouting 'Allahu Akbar', meaning "We're Number One" 'God is greatest' in Arabic.

The attacker was not previously known to police or anti-terrorist authorities and had recently moved to Rambouillet having previously lived in the Val-de-Marne.
Breitbart adds:
A town of just 26,000 people, Rambouillet is not well-known for violence, with one local police officer telling the newspaper, "The officials at this small cop shoppe known for its tranquillity are devastated."

The attack in Rambouillet comes after another cop shoppe in the same suburb of Yvelines, in the commune of Trappes, was attacked for two straight hours on Thursday night by a mob of around forty people.

The attackers used garbage bins as shields and fired at least fifty mortar fireworks, while coppers responded with fifty or so tear gas canisters and other non-lethal measures. Despite the damage and length of the attack, no arrests were made by police.

Francois Bersani, a delegate of the SGP police union, claimed that the attack is just one of 48 incidents of urban violence in the Yvelines department in the last week alone.

"We noted thirteen incidents of urban violence last night in the Yvelines which are added to the 48 incidents of the past week," Bersani said.

Yvelines is also the department where the beheading of teacher Samuel Paty took place in October of last year. Paty was murdered by a radical Islamic Chechen refugee after showing cartoons of the Islamic Prophet Mohammed to his class.
That’d be Abdullakh Anzorov, the 18 year old petty criminal whose refugee status was renewed by France shortly before events instead of being revoked for cause. He sent video of the beheading to a Russian-speaking jihadi in Idlib, possibly to someone connected to his half sister, who’s been in Syria with ISIS since 2014.

Normally I would argue FREE SPEECH.
BUT, since Social Media helped BLOM and Anti-FArt to repeatedly use their resources to organize, plan and call forth their Army of THUGS. Which historically have Looted, Assaulted citizens and Police in these cities. Doesn't this make Social Media a Co-conspirators and direct Accessories to the crimes committed by these Radical groups?

WHY THEM?
Because the Social Media Giants have taken a clear political supporting role when they continue to allow the Rioter's free un censored access and seem to only CENSOR Groups that are seek to address the Criminals/Radicals actions and resulting crimes.

BLM storms Oklahoma Capitol over GOP bills
Video of the larping idiots at the link. See here for more about the bill Oklahoma passed.
[TRENDINGVIEWS.CO] Protesters shouting "Black Lives Matter" stormed the Oklahoma Capitol this week and there doesn't seem to be much outrage or mass coverage from the mainstream media. Nothing like what we saw on January 6 when people called Trump supporters insurrectionists.

Aren't these protesters doing something similar? Isn't it an insurrection when BLM storms a Capitol, or does that not fit in the liberal mainstream media's narrative.

Fox News covered it in detail, providing information as to why the protesters stormed the Capitol and a confrontation that broke out having two men face-to-face.

Demonstrators chanting "Black Lives Matter" stormed the Oklahoma Capitol on Wednesday, forcing the state House of Representatives into lockdown, in order to protest several Republican-backed bills, including one that provides legal protections to motorists fleeing riots.

More than two dozen protesters
...2 dozen? Golly...
filled the gallery on the fifth floor while the Oklahoma House in the chamber below was in session. Video showed demonstrators chanting, "Stand united against all hate," and "We will use our voices to stand against corruption, to fight hate, to defend Black and Brown lives." The disturbance interrupted the session for several minutes.

Does it matter if it's a few dozen or a few thousand people? Storming a capitol is storming a capitol. Shouldn't these folks be arrested too?

One man stood nose-to-nose with a politician who met him on the gallery in what appeared to be a heated verbal confrontation until another female protester pulled him away. "You’re a disgrace, you’re an embarrassment to the whole f---ing nation," the male protesters shouted as he left.

"You are traitors, insurrectionists, seditionists," another woman shouted as protesters trickled out of the gallery.

Oklahoma Highway Patrol escorted protesters from the building, and a drug dog was brought into the chamber to make sure "nothing was left behind," KOCO news hound Dillon Richards tweeted.

Iraq
A joint force repels an ISIS attack in southwest of Kirkuk
[SHAFAQ] The Iraqi Army and the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) repelled, on Friday, an attack in southwest of Kirkuk.

PMF Media Directorate said in a statement today, ISIS members attacked the control areas of the Iraqi Army and PMF in the outskirts of Qara Tabbah, southwest of Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
but the joint forces forced them to flee.

The Iraqi Army and PMF are working jointly in different areas in Iraq to defeat ISIS.

Earlier, the Iraqi security forces and PMF launched a campaign to dredge and open passages in the orchards of Jalawla district to uncover ISIS strongholds and dens of which it launches attacks against agricultural villages

In February, the Iraqi Army and the PMF carried out security operations have been launched in the outskirts of four governorates to pursue ISIS and to prevent terrorist elements from reconfiguring and planning new attacks.

The operations, which are still continuing eliminated ISIS holy warriors, destroyed bandidos turbans headquarters and took control of large areas in the so-called Triangle of Diyala- the borders of Kifri, the Balkana region, and the borders of Kirkuk

Yet, ISIS still has sleeper cells in several Iraqi Governorates. Its fighters are making a comeback with kidnap and killing, the latest massive reactivation incident is when two ISIS men blew themselves up in a crowded Baghdad market on January 2021, killing at least 32 people in Iraq’s first big suicide kaboom for three years.

Two injured in an ISIS attack in Baqubah; 2 cars bombed, killing 3
[SHAFAQ] A security source in Diyala reported that a policeman and a civilian were maimed, on Friday, in an ISIS attack on a security post on the outskirts of Hibhib village, located 10 km northwest of Baqubah.

The source told Shafaq News Agency a security force rushed to the scene and launched a search campaign to find and arrest the perpetrators.

3 killed in two explosions in Diyala: security media cell
This sounds like a different attack than above, but there aren’t enough details given to be sure.
[Rudaw] One civilian and two other coppers were killed in a double bombing in Diyala province on Friday, the Iraqi military stated. Another four people were maimed.

A first bomb struck a civilian car and the second hit a police patrol in the Abu Saida district, the Security Media Cell stated.

Security forces are inspecting the area and have blamed the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group (ISIS) for the attack. There has been no immediate claim of responsibility.

In the latest edition of its propaganda newspaper al-Naba, ISIS claimed it had conducted 11 attacks across Iraq, including 4 in Diyala from April 7 to 14, killing and injuring 29 people.

Official warns of repeating al-Jizani scenario in Baquba
[SHAFAQ] The Deputy Commissioner of Baquba, Abdullah Ahmed al-Hayali, called for securing the vicinity of the district, warning of another "al-Jizani" scenario.
I’m sure I’d be concerned, too, if I had any idea what the deputy commissioner meant...
Al-Hayali said in a statement to Shafaq News Agency that the territory extending along the Diyala River from al-Miqdadiyah through to Kharabanat and al-Huwayder areas is devoid of security presence.

"it became a passage and a haven for ISIS operatives to hide and prepare for terrorist attacks, in addition to storing arms and equipment," he added.

Al-Hayali warned of repeating "al-Jizani" incident, "given the poor outcome of the security plans at the outskirts of al-Abbara and Diyala River that only includes short-term searching and combing operations, not to forget leaking the details of the operations to ISIS operatives ahead of their execution."

He also shed light on the nurturing environment that aids ISIS in conducting swift and precise terrorist operations without being able to trace the perpetrators and those complicit with them.

The Deputy Commander of Baquba called for "installing high-tech security cameras, deploying security checkpoints on the roads and in the orchards to monitor and detect suspicious operations or movements."

Al-Abbara district, 15 kilometers from Baquba's center, has been a scene for dozens of terrorist attacks that left dozens of injuries and casualties among civilians and security personnel.

Fresh clashes between Israel Police, Palestinians in East Jerusalem, West Bank
Follow up to this story from yesterday.
[[IsraelTimes] Violent confrontations near Old City, Rachel’s Tomb, Qalandiya checkpoint, a day after rioting by Arabs and Jews; US Embassy issues security alert for personnel.

Fresh festivities erupted between Paleostinians and Israeli security forces in East Jerusalem and its outskirts on Friday night, a day after the capital saw violent mostly peaceful skirmishes involving Jews and Arabs near the Old City.

After calm during daylight hours on Friday, scuffles broke out again as thousands of Moslem worshipers left the al-Aqsa Mosque compound after evening prayers.

IDF hits Gaza as terrorists fire 20 36 rockets at Israel, ending months of calm
[IsraelTimes] Rocket salvos continue throughout the night and into morning after Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, calls for attacks on Israel over Jerusalem unrest; in response, Israel targets Hamas infrastructure.

The Israeli military struck multiple Hamas targets in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip Saturday morning, including rocket launchers and underground infrastructure, the army said, in response to several salvos of rockets fired into Israel overnight.

There were no immediate reports of casualties in the Gaza strikes.

At least 20 rockets were launched from the Paleostinian territory in salvos throughout the night and into the morning, in the worst assault from the Strip in many months.

Sirens sounded in numerous Israeli communities near the Strip, including Ashkelon and the Eshkol, Sdot Negev, Sha’ar Hanegev and Hof Ashkelon regional councils.

The attack followed days of tensions and festivities in Jerusalem and the West Bank that involved Paleostinian and Israeli civilians as well as Israeli security forces.

The Iron Dome missile defense system intercepted four of the projectiles. Others fell in open areas. Iron Dome is programmed to not deploy at rockets that are projected to hit non-populated areas.

No Israelis were hurt in the attacks and no damage was reported.

The rocket barrage came after hours the Hamas terror group that rules Gaza held a series of protests in the Strip and called for violence against Israel in the wake of fierce festivities Thursday in Jerusalem between police, bad boy Jewish activists and Paleostinian protesters.

Addressing the protesters, Hamas big turban Mahmoud Warty Nose al-Zahhar
...a co-founder of Hamas and a member of its leadership. Since 2006, Warty Nose has served as foreign minister in the government of Ismail Haniyeh. He is considered one of the more stubborn hard-liners and has no objection to kissing the Persian foot to keep the money flowing.
