[ToloNews] A source from the Islamic Emirate confirmed that a delegation of the Islamic Emirate met with US officials in Doha on Saturday.
The source said they discussed the issue of US drones in Afghan airspace and dronezaps in the country, violations of the Doha agreement and its fulfillment, restrictions on Afghan banks and the recent transfer of Afghan assets to the Swiss bank.
According to the source, the Islamic Emirate delegation was comprised of representatives from the intelligence department, MoFA and the MoD. The US delegation included the US special envoy for Afghanistan, representatives from the CIA as well as State Dept and DoD.
The report was first released by the CNN ...the organization formerly known as the Cable News Network. Now who knows what it might stand for... , saying that the presence of CIA Deputy Director David Cohen and Wasiq at the meeting on Saturday indicates an emphasis on counterterrorism. CNN of course. The preferred purveyor of all things Klingon.
"The Taliban ...the Pashtun equivalent of men... are struggling to prevent ISIS-K attacks, making them look feckless, particularly in Kabul," said Beth Sanner, a former Deputy Director of National Intelligence who led Afghanistan analysis at the CIA. Sanner is also a CNN contributor.
The analysts gave various opinions. But the central theme or 'Cover for financial Action' remains the fight against terrorism.
"The US wants to have coordination with Kabul in issues related to countering terrorism. This is good instead of being in relations with the neighboring of (Afghanistan). If they are succeeded, there is a chance that the sanctions will be lifted," said Tariq Farhad, a political analyst.
"There is no terrorist group. If (terrorists) exist, they should be eliminated in cooperation with the neighboring countries, so that this phenomenon and threat is eliminated," said Sadiq Shinwari, a military veteran.
The meeting is the first after the US dronezap targeted a residence in the Sherpur area of Kabul, after which US President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S., who gives the term geriatric a bad name. He blames Afghans for losing Afghanistan.... announced that al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri ...Formerly second in command of al-Qaeda, now the head cheese, occasionally described as the real brains of the outfit. Formerly the Mister Big of Egyptian Islamic Jihad. Bumped off Abdullah Azzam with a car boom in the course of one of their little disputes. Is thought to have composed bin Laden's fatwa entitled World Islamic Front Against Jews and Crusaders. Currently residing in the North Wazoo area assuming he's not dead like Mullah Omar. He lost major face when he ordered the nascent Islamic State to cease and desist and merge with the orthodox al-Qaeda spring, al-Nusra... was killed.
Political analyst Wahid Faqiri said that the US wants to engage with the Islamic Emirate.
"Thr US is perhaps ready to engage with the Islamic Emirate," he said.
However, a clean conscience makes a soft pillow... the meeting between the bigwigs of the Islamic Emirate and the US has yet to be officially confirmed by the Islamic Emirate.

Find the Senior Intelligence official US Foreign Policy representative and purse holder in this story. Revealing you say? Not really, when you gain an awareness of who actually runs the country.
Deputy Klingon Director, Drones, Airspace, Swiss Banks, Money? What was it that was actually being discussed ?
I'll take "what is Credit Suisse Group AG" for $600. Alex.

[ShabelleMedia] The crackdown against al-Shabaab ...... the personification of Somali state failure... has taken a new dimension, with the government of Somalia now targeting social media accounts spearheading the agenda of the al-Qaeda-linked group, which dominates central and southern parts of the country.
Over 40 social media accounts have been targeted in the ongoing crackdown against the bad boys, with the government now shifting focus to sources of disinformation, especially the ones spreading al-Shabaab propaganda in the Horn of Africa nation.
Abdirahman Adala, the Deputy Minister of Information, insisted that any individual or media found culpable of spreading al-Shabaab ideology, will be targeted for shutdown. This is the first the government is targeting such platforms.
"Any media house or individual found spreading that group's message will be removed from social media at the request of the Somali government," said the minister, who is a close ally of President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.
Despite the announcement, Mogadishu is yet to make public the list of the social media accounts which were affected by the shutdown. For years, the government has been regulating the use of social media but the measures have never culminated in the shutdown.
According to the minister, the government is keen to use military combats and economic ideologies to counter the bad boys. In the economic ideology, the government is keen to close extortion centers where al-Shabaab has been collecting money in form of "taxes" to sustain its criminal enterprise.
The bad boys, who have functional communication and public relations platforms, have been using them to spread fear and propaganda to the people of Somalia. Whenever there is an attack, such platforms are used to convey information to the public.
Consequently, such platforms are used for the radicalization of youths besides promoting recruitment ideologies of the bad boys. The United States has previously worked closely with Somalia to trace some of the social platforms used by al-Shabaab to convey propaganda.
While the gunnies have increased attacks on various fronts recently, the Somalia National Army with the help of allies has managed to contain them, inflicting massive losses to them in various parts of the country, with President Hassan Sheikh promising a relentless crackdown.
[Breitbart] A group of hacktivists rocked Mexico’s government by exposing ties between top officials and cartels. One of the leaks confirms a report from Breitbart Texas about cartel maneuvers. The group also exposed uncomfortable secrets for Mexico’s president.
Earlier this month, a hacktivist group known as “Guacamayas,” released 6 terabytes of data taken from the servers of Mexico’s Army (SEDENA), which in recent years has taken on a greater role under President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. The group has made data available to journalists throughout Mexico.
One of the leaked files revealed that Mexico’s Secretary of the Interior Adan Augusto Lopez had given the leadership of the Tabasco State Police to three men who were part of a criminal organization called “La Barredora” or the “street sweeper” at a time when he was governor. Proceso first published the report exposing secretary of the State Public Safety Hernan Bermudez Requena, the commissioner of the state police José del Carmen Castillo Ramírez, and the state police director Leonardo Arturo Leyva Ávalo. The report further identifies Bermudez as a top leader with La Barredora who has the nickname “Comandante H.”
Another report from the Mexican Army also revealed that members of the Gulf Cartel co-opted Tamaulipas state police officers and members of Mexico’s National Guard to help them fight off an incursion by Cartel Jalisco New Generation (CJNG). In August gunmen from CJNG entered Tamaulipas and made their way to the town of Tula where they carried out attacks and murders. The Gulf Cartel sent out gunmen who coordinated with the Tamaulipas State Police to locate the intruders, Proceso reported.
Another report also from the Guacamaya leaks revealed that the military identified cartel links between three state governments controlled by Mexico’s ruling party, Morena. The report lists cartel ties in gubernatorial administrations for Campeche, Chiapas, Tabasco, and Veracruz. According to the report, state and municipal officials have been infiltrated by the CJNG and others.

^ A bigger question worthy of exposure and investigation is the cartel connections (and hence the MexGov connections) to the CCP entities funneling the fentanyl and selected intelligence assets they traffick into the US.
[An Nahar] Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz has said that Israel would move ahead with plans to extract gas from the Karish field even if no deal is reached 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... , warning Hezbollah that any attack would meet a "resolute" response, the Times of Israel has reported.
"If Hezbollah makes that mistake and attacks Israel in any way, by air, sea or land, Israel will defend itself resolutely, it will attack resolutely, and if things develop into a broader conflict, we will take Lebanon apart, and that would be a great pity," he told Channel 12, according to the Israeli newspaper.
"We’ve said so and it’s in Lebanon’s hands now," Gantz stated.
In a separate interview with Kan TV, Gantz said: "If we reach a deal with the Lebanese government it will be good for both sides. It will be good for stability and serve all players."
He said Israel was "not anxious" over Hezbollah’s threats. "We keep making clear that Israel is prepared for a deal, (but) Israel is determined to maintain its economic and security interests," he added.
Gantz also rejected opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu’s criticism of the proposed accord. The former prime minister has accused the Israeli government of bargaining away Israel’s "sovereign territory" and has said he will not be bound by it if he returns to power.
Gantz brushed away the comments, saying Netanyahu "would have rushed to sign" such a deal. He added that the former premier is "engaged solely in political manipulation."
Gantz’s office on Saturday invited Netanyahu to a security briefing to provide him with details on the proposed deal.
On Friday, U.S. Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides also shot down right-wing claims the accord was a surrender to Hezbollah.
"That is ridiculous," Nides told JTA. He also said Netanyahu "supported a very similar deal a few years ago."
[ToloNews] President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Sleazy Dem machine politician, paterfamilias of the Biden Crime Family, the guy who bungled Afghanistan... on Friday formally issued new guidance curtailing the use of armed drones outside of war zones including Afghanistan as part of a new counterterrorism strategy that places a greater priority on protecting civilian lives.
According to AP’s report, the new policies require presidential approval before a suspected terrorist is added to the US government’s target list for potential lethal action, including dronezaps and special operations raids.
"President Joe Biden ...... 46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing...... ’s formal counterterrorism guidance directs his administration to be discerning and agile in protecting Americans against evolving global terrorist challenges," said White House Homeland Security Adviser Liz Sherwood-Randall in a statement.
"Joe Biden is raising the issue of drone operations. There are two basic issues, one is the issue of focusing or paying attention to the US policy from the Islamic world towards Ukraine and the Indo-Pacific, and the second is the decrease of the US intelligence capabilities in those places," said Salim Kakar, political analyst.
Currently, only Iraq and Syria still considered by the US to be so-called areas of active hostilities — or conventional war zones — the new policy is geared toward countries like Somalia, 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... and now, Afghanistan, where the US continues to carry out counterterrorism strikes from afar.
"The US pays more attention to China and Russia and the war in Ukraine, and maybe Americans will interact with the Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban... and offer them concessions to use the Taliban's forces against the organizations the US labels quasi-terrorists," said Assadullah Nadim, military expert.
"This is a good move, although the UN Security Charter states that if land, air, or sea attacks occur in the illusory sovereignty of any other country, the UN Security Council must decide," said Janat Fahim Chakari, political analyst.
Previously, drone attacks on Afghanistan and other non-combat zones were permitted by the US Department of Defense and the CIA.
The first drones were created after World War I, and the United States of America took the lead and made significant investments.
