DETROIT (AP) — Thirteen sexual assault victims of Larry Nassar
....Lebanese-American doctor Lawrence Gerard Nassar will be imprisoned for the rest of his life for s3xually abusing over 265 girls in the U.S. gymnastics program, taking advantage of his access as team athletic trainer and team physician...
are seeking $10 million each from the FBI, claiming a bungled investigation by agents led to more abuse by the sports doctor, lawyers said Thursday.
It’s an effort to make the government responsible for assaults that occurred after July 2015. The Justice Department’s inspector general concluded that the FBI made fundamental errors when it became aware of allegations against Nassar that year.
Nassar was a Michigan State University sports doctor as well as a doctor at USA Gymnastics. He is serving decades in prison for assaulting female athletes, including medal-winning Olympic gymnasts.
"This was not a case involving fake 20 dollar bills or tax cheats," attorney Jamie White said. "These were allegations of a serial rapist who was known to the FBI as the Olympic U.S. doctor with unfettered access to young women." "Pay us me"
Nassar, he added, continued a "reign of terror for 17 unnecessary months."
Indianapolis-based USA Gymnastics told local FBI agents in 2015 that three gymnasts said they were assaulted by Nassar. But the FBI did not open a formal investigation or inform federal or state authorities in Michigan, according to the inspector general’s report.

Nassar, he added, continued a "reign of terror for 17 unnecessary months."
The 9/11 bombers, Nidal Hasan, Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, the Tsarnaev bros., the Trump-Russian hoax, Hunter Biden, Christine Fang, and subway shooter Frank R. James were known about for months as well, in some cases years.

Question: Did you (US Citizen) have anything to do with the investigation and/or the crime?
Because when you sue the FBI you are suing yourself since it is your tax $$$ they are taking.
Because, I am willing to bet the FBI agents conducting the investigations were likely told by higher ups to back-off for PR, Political Agenda reasons.
So sue those that interfered / halted the investigation, thus violating these women's Civil Rights and placing them further in harms way. Also look into Criminal indictments and breech of Oath Of Office Violations for the Fed's.
If it hasn't already been done, sue the crap out of the Doctor and strip him of all his financial holdings and assets?

It's the first interview she's ever done, she said, and she decided to speak to make clear she was not forced out of the agency but left on her own terms.
Because it's all about her you see. Nothing she says here or writes about in the future will in any way, assist the efforts of the intelligence community today or in any future collection challenges.
Did I mention it was all about her and not about the people or country she was sworn to protect ?
"Departed on her own terms." And the "terms" of retirement for a gov't SES are indeed quite nice. The "terms" are however, afforded to all retirees.

[AlAhram] EgyptAir carried 680 Egyptian Coptic pilgrims on Thursday evening to visit the holy sites in Jerusalem, after pilgrimage trips had been suspended for two years due to the pandemic, sources at EgyptAir said.
The Coptic pilgrims boarded two Boeing 777 planes, each with a capacity of more than 350 passengers.
EgyptAir will continue to operate its flights from Cairo Airport to Tel Aviv, which started on 17 April, to transport about 3,000 Coptic pilgrims until 24 April (Coptic Easter), according to a statement by the sources on Thursday.
The pilgrimage trip includes visits to several holy places, namely: Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Mount Zion, Via Dolorosa, Jericho, Monastery of Temptation, the Dead Sea and the Mount of Olives.
The trip will cost pilgrims between $990-1150.
Pilgrims must take a PCR test 72 hours before traveling, provided that they have not been vaccinated in six months. Upon arrival at the Israeli airport, pilgrims will be required to take another PCR test.
This time of year, many Copts wish to travel to the Holy Land, and Jerusalem in particular. However, women are made to be loved, not understood... a papal decree issued in 1979 by the late Pope Shenouda III prohibits them from travelling there.
The decree was issued to protest to the Israeli occupation of Paleostine.
Since the Camp David Accords signed between Egypt and Israel in 1978 there have been no official travel restrictions between the two countries.
However, women are made to be loved, not understood... many Coptic Egyptians have defied the decree, choosing to make the pilgrimage.
In early October, a plane branded with the logo of Egypt’s national carrier landed in Israel for the first time. The flight was described as "historic" by the Israel Airport Authority.
Earlier this week, the first direct flight between the Israeli capital of Tel Aviv and Egypt’s Red Sea resort city of Sharm El-Sheikh kicked off.
In mid-March, Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett’s office announced that Egypt and Israel agreed to expand direct flights between the two countries, and that a direct flight route between Tel Aviv and Sharm El-Sheikh would begin operating in April during the Jewish holiday of Passover.

[KavkazUzel] The head of Kabardino-Balkaria, Kazbek Kokov, ordered to increase the anti-terrorist protection of tourist, industrial and transport facilities in the region.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that members of cells of international terrorist organizations were preparing terrorist attacks in educational institutions in Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkaria and Stavropol, the National Anti-Terrorism Committee reported on February 8.
At social, tourist, industrial, transport facilities, as well as facilities of the fuel and industrial complex of Kabardino-Balkaria, additional anti-terrorist security measures are being introduced, head of the republic Kazbek Kokov said today in his Telegram channel.
According to Kokov, the responsibility of officials for the implementation of the decisions of the anti-terrorist commission to ensure the security of such facilities will be strengthened.
The "Caucasian Knot" keeps statistics on the victims of the armed conflict in the North Caucasus using its own materials and information from open sources. In recent years, no terrorist attacks and explosions have been recorded in the republic.
In the first quarter of this year, there were no reports of casualties in Kabardino-Balkaria. In 2021, in Kabardino-Balkaria, during a special operation, five people were killed, whom the National Anti-Terrorism Committee called militants.
On July 22, 2020, the FSB reported on a terrorist attack that had been prevented in Kabardino-Balkaria and reported that four members of a terrorist organization were killed while trying to detain people in the Chegemsky district.
On March 24, 2020, the security forces, having received information about the preparation of a terrorist attack, tried to detain three suspects near the village of Kremenchug-Konstantinovskoye in the Baksansky district. All three were killed during the skirmish.
So much for President Recep Tayip Erdogan making up to the Saudis...
[Rudaw] A court in Ankara on Wednesday rejected an appeal filed against transferring the trial of slain journalist and Saudi critic beloved martyr of journalism Jamal Khashoggi ......who was simultaneously a very well paid Washington Post columnist and a long time propagandist for the Moslem Brotherhood and Al Qaeda — he died while on the Qatari payroll, but previously wrote at the behest of then-Saudi intel chief Prince Turki al-Faisal...... to Saudi 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. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century... , reported media outlets.
Hatice Cengiz, Khashoggi's Ottoman Turkish fiancé, had appealed the court’s decision to hand Saudi Arabia a case involving dozens of suspects linked to his murder.
Ankara’s 14th Administrative Court rejected the appeal, reported Bianet media outlet, noting that another appeal filed about Khashoggi’s transfer case in Istanbul is yet to be decided on.
The 59-year-old journalist was killed inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on October 2, 2018, in a gruesome murder that stroked the world. Khashoggi walked into the consulate building and never walked out, his body has not yet been found.
Earlier this month, a Ottoman Turkish court confirmed the transfer of Khashoggi's murder trial, which had begun in 2020, to Riyadh, upsetting his loved ones, lawyers, and rights groups.
Amnesia Amnesty International’s Milena Buyum called the decision "appalling and clearly political."
Five people were handed death sentence ...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead... s by Saudi Arabia over Khashoggi's killing but a Saudi court in September 2020 overturned them while giving jail terms of up to 20 years to eight unnamed defendants following secretive legal proceedings.
Responding to this story from yesterday [SHAFAQ] The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor... on Thursday dismissed what it described as "Iraq’s baseless objections" to Operation Claw Lock, Ankara’s latest cross-border operation against the PKK terrorist group. Baghdad’s charge d’affaires was summoned to the Ottoman Turkish Foreign Ministry and told in clear terms that Turkey is well within its rights to act against a designated terrorist organization that "has been targeting our country from its bases in northern Iraq for nearly 40 years," ministry spokesperson Tanju Bilgic said in a statement.
Turkey launched Operation Claw-Lock this week to target PKK hideouts in the Metina, Zap, and Avasin-Basyan areas.
Iraq, however, raised concerns over the offensive and called on Ankara to withdraw its forces.
Bilgic stressed that Iraqi authorities have "failed to act decisively against the group despite Turkey’s repeated requests."
He said Ankara is determined to "root out the PKK, which has been designated as a terrorist organization by several countries and international organizations and is also a threat to Iraq’s illusory sovereignty and stability."
"Turkey is always ready to cooperate closely with Iraq in the fight against the PKK terrorist organization on the basis of common interests," he added.
"As long as Iraqi authorities do not take solid and effective steps against this threat, Turkey will continue to take all necessary measures for self-defense, a right enshrined in Article 51 of the UN Charter", Bilgic asserted.

Build the Wall, implement mandatory E-Verify, permit cross referencing the Social Security Database with IRS filings to identify duplicate and fraudulent entries, reinstate enforcement of Remain in Mexico Asylum Process, require ID verification of all remittances sent overseas via the US banking system, cease the family feeding programs at schools, ID verify use of EBT cards to issued recipients, and poof. The problem is solved and the vast extent of the illegal alien population and its impact on our nation will be exposed. Honest government would do this, liberal or conservative. Once the truth, the factual, no bullshit truth is revealed, ask the CITIZENS of this country what they want to do about it.

How about we create a Border Emergency Task Force to deal with people trying to cross our borders illegally? They could be mounted on horses and use whips to beat back the miscreants. Think it would work?
[OneIndia] Seven Pakistain based bandidosbandidos murderous Moslems have been listed under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) by the Ministry of Home Affairs in the past 15 days.
Sajjad Gul, Ashiq Ahmed Nengroo, Mushtaq Ahmed Zargar, Arjumand Gulzar Jan, Ali Kashif Jan, Mohiuddin Aurangzeb Alamgir, and Hafiz Talha Saeed, who are based in Pakistain were listed under the UAPA based on the recommendations of the CID, 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....

Let’s see, Sunni or Shite ? “quora.comhttps://www.quora.com About 97% of Pakistanis are Muslim. Pakistan has the second largest number of Muslims in the world after Indonesia. The majority are Sunni (60%) While Shias make up between 30-35%. Smaller Muslim minorities in Pakistan include Quranists and non-denominational Muslims.” Does it make any difference? which sect killed Robert Kennedy and wars with Israel and which one bombed the twin towers?

[Rudaw] For journalist Amer Matar, a decade-long search for his younger brother has defined him and changed the course of his life, now dedicated to researching and documenting crimes committed 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.... group in Syria.
His brother, Mohammed Nour Matar, vanished in Syria’s northern city of Raqqa in 2013 while reporting on a kaboom that hit the headquarters of an bad boy group. His burnt camera was found at the scene of the blast, and his family soon after got word he was in an IS prison. But there has been no other sign of him since.

[SHAFAQ] A senior officer in the Iranian Ministry of Oil expressed his country's readiness to help Iraq develop the "technical experience" required to "nationalize the oil industry".
Iran's official news agency, IRNA, quoted Taher Saeedi as saying, "per our recent agreement, 400 to 500 Iraqi students will be admitted to faculties relevant to oil studies."
The member of the Iraqi-Iranian committee said that channeling the knowledge and technical expertise is a priority for this committee.
"Oil production and extraction have become exclusive to the foreign companies, especially the US, French, Chinese, and Italian," he said, "Iran ...Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979... has not engaged in the Iraqi oil industry so far."
"Iran enjoys a high level of knowledge in drilling wells and producing oil. We will try to transfer this knowledge to the Iraqi side," he added.

Clashes between Israeli police and Palestinian protesters broke out on Friday
Eleven Palestinians were rushed to hospital, in moderate and serious condition
Palestinians began hurling stones towards the Western Wall, considered the holiest site where Jews can pray, with Israeli forces dispersing the crowd
The Palestinian worshipers have been outraged by repeated visits by Israeli Jews to the Temple Mount, the third-holiest site in Islam and the holiest in Judaism “We’re the penultimate conquerers of Jerusalem. How dare the original owners and ultimate conquerers claim the same rights of conquest we are accustomed to! Allahu Snackbar, yahud!”
Violence has sparked fears of an escalation in clashes echoing the 11-day war
The soft jihad of the law expanding special privileges for the Muslim segment of the population.
[BenarNews] A court in Thailand’s Islamic-majority Deep South ruled Thursday that Moslem girls can wear hijabs at a Buddhist school housed within a temple where the principal had banned the religious headgear as part of the campus dress code.
In its decision, the Administrative Court in Yala province ruled in favor of parents who lodged a petition in 2018 after the head master at the Anuban Pattani School in Pattani province had enforced a policy requiring all students to wear school uniforms and banning hijabs, which he deemed as inappropriate on temple grounds.
"[The court] rules to revoke the Anuban Pattani School’s order ... and allow Moslem children to dress according to Moslem customs," a sheet from a court document stated.

[An Nahar] Free Patriotic Movement Despite its name a Christian party allied with Hizbullah, neither free nor particularly patriotic... chief Jebran Bassil on Thursday slammed the rival Lebanese Forces A Christian political party founded by Bashir Gemayel, who was then bumped off when he was elected president of Leb... party as a "militia" that wants to "impose its conditions on the Foreign Ministry" in the distribution of polling stations abroad.
"Everyone knows and acknowledges the effort that the Foreign Ministry has exerted to facilitate expat voting, from increasing the number of polling centers from 116 to 205 and polling stations from 232 to 598, in conjunction with putting a unified standard for all countries, which turned every polling center into a megacenter comprising polling stations for all of Lebanon Hezbollahstan ...In 2020 Hezbollah blew up a considerable portion of Beirut and many of its inhabitants when its ammonium nitrate facility exploded. They blamed it on... somebody else. It wasn't them though. Trust them on that. And it ain't never coming to trial... ’s electoral districts," Bassil said in a tweet.
"The LF wants to impose its conditions on the ministry, especially in Australia’s Sydney, in a manner that differs from the entire world. It wants to issue threats unless every polling center is turned into one dedicated to a single electoral district," the FPM chief added.
"This is a militia-like approach in imposing and endless lying. The LF has called for withdrawing confidence from the minister and we would file an appeal against any change to the unified standards in favor of the militia," Bassil went on to say.
The LF-led Strong Republic bloc had earlier on Thursday filed a request for holding a parliamentary session aimed at voting on withdrawing confidence from Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib over "violations" related to expat voting.
It said such violations include "distributing voters from the same area, village and family on several polling stations that are very distant from each other, which makes the voting process more difficult."
