Lot of OTC night vision at reasonable prices, especially chinese wholesale or loss leader. If those pictures are correct, if, those don't look like zero dark thirty clobbering time but something you'd use to check if coyotes are running around the barn - still, tons better than naked eye.
[ShabelleMedia] Somali troops and their allied clan militia have vacated Qayib, a small town in the Galmudug ...a semiautonomous region in central Somalia, bordering Puntland on the north. Galmudug is not trying to obtain international recognition as a separate nation, but rather considers itself autonomous within the larger Somali federalism, for what that's worth... state of Somalia, in what could be a major setback to the ongoing military operation against al-Shabaab ...... Somalia's version of the Taliban ...Arabic for students... , functioning as an arm of al-Qaeda... .
The troops set up a defensive position in a nearby Ali Wayt, 17 kilometers away from Qayib, as al-Shabaab tries to retake the area without a battle.
The retreat comes days after al-Shabaab launched a major attack on the military bases in Qayib last Friday that killed dozens of people from both sides.
Galmudug is one of the regional states that joined the FGS’s offensive against al-Shabaab and it regained control of locations, including Qayib since September.

[BREITBART] Marcy Landolfo, who owns the Rains PDX store in Democrat-run Portland, Oregon, is fed up after experiencing break-in number 15.
Landolfo told KATU she decided to shut it down because, "The products that are being targeted are the very expensive winter products and I just felt like the minute I get those in the store they’re going to get stolen," the outlet reported Saturday.
She is also concerned for her employees’ safety and acknowledged, "The problem is, as small businesses, we cannot sustain those types of losses and stay in business. I won’t even go into the numbers of how much has been out of pocket."
A notice on the shop’s door said the location was permanently closed and told visitors to use the website instead.
The notice also told customers:
Our city is in peril. Small businesses (and large) cannot sustain doing business in our city’s current state. We have no protection or recourse against the criminal behavior that goes unpunished. Do not be fooled into thinking that insurance companies cover losses. We have sustained 15 break-ins. We have not received any financial reimbursement since the 3rd.

It is a Liberal Socialist Democrat run operation now.
So why are they bothering to lock the doors?
Put up an Honor Box, so that their fellow comrades, who have been oppressed by the White Capitalist Class, can pay what they can afford.
Or, wouldn't their ANTI-FArt / BLOM comrades look out for them?

No worries. Everything is online these days anyway. Nobody needs an actual brick and mortar operation that allows customers to examine the merchandise in person. Put pictures of the merchandise online and let customers find out after they order it whether it meets their needs or not. Let Portland die.

[IsraelTimes] A police front man says undercover Border Police officers arrested a terror suspect in the West Bank city of Jenin a short while ago.
The front man says the suspect, Nasser Ghanem, previously locked away Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! in Israel, is wanted for "advancing terror activities."
Ghanem has been transferred to the Shin Bet security agency for further questioning.
[IsraelTimes] Military says suspect hurled Molotov cocktail at troops, hours after Paleostinian attacker killed following ramming, and three others killed in festivities with military
A Paleostinian man was killed during festivities with Israeli troops in the central West Bank on Tuesday afternoon, Paleostinian health officials said, marking the fifth fatality in a day. The Paleostinian Authority Health Ministry said the man was shot by Israeli forces in the village of al-Mughayyir, near Ramallah. He was identified by Paleostinian media as Raed Ghazi Naasan, a member of the Paleostinian Authority security services.
The Israel Defense Forces said Paleostinians had hurled stones at soldiers who arrived in the town to notify residents of illegal construction. Some parts of al-Mughayyir are considered Area C, where Israel maintains civilian control. A suspect hurling a Molotov cocktail at troops was shot at, the IDF said, adding that "hits were identified."
One Israeli soldier was also lightly hurt by the stone-throwing, and taken to a hospital for further treatment, the IDF added.
Hours earlier, a Paleostinian attacker was killed after he carried out a car-ramming attack, and early Tuesday, three Paleostinians were killed in separate festivities with troops.
In the Tuesday morning attack, Rani Mamoun Fayz Abu Ali, 45, from the town of Beitunia, seriously maimed an Israeli soldier near the settlement of Migron, north of Jerusalem, before fleeing the scene. He was rubbed out by coppers after a brief chase.
Earlier that morning, the Paleostinian Authority Health Ministry said brothers Jawad Rimawi, 22, and Dhafer Rimawi, 21, were killed when Israeli troops opened fire on them in the town of Kafr Ein. The IDF said festivities had erupted in the town during a routine military operation.
In the pre-dawn hours of Tuesday, a Paleostinian man — identified as Mufid Khalil — was killed in festivities with troops, after two military vehicles broke down in a town near Hebron. The IDF said the two jeeps, on a routine patrol, got stuck in the city due to "technical malfunctions."
Paleostinians opened fire, and others threw stones and bombs at the soldiers, who responded with live fire and other riot dispersal means, the military said.

[IsraelTimes] Jihadist group gives no further details on death of Abu Hasan al-Hashimi al-Qurashi, announces his replacement
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.... jihadist group said Wednesday that its leader Abu Hasan al-Hashimi al-Qurashi has been killed in battle and announced a replacement.
A front man for the group said Hashimi, an Iraqi, was killed "in combat with enemies of God," without elaborating on the date of his death or the circumstances.
Speaking in an audio message, the front man identified the group’s new leader as Abu al-Hussein al-Husseini al-Qurashi.
Qurashi refers to a tribe of the Prophet Mohammed, from whom IS leaders must claim descent.
After a meteoric rise in Iraq and Syria in 2014 that saw it conquer vast swathes of territory, IS saw its self-proclaimed "caliphate" collapse under a wave of offensives.
It was defeated in Iraq in 2017 and in Syria two years later, but sleeper cells of the Sunni Moslem krazed killer group still carry out attacks in both countries and claim attacks elsewhere in the world.
IS’s previous leader, Abu Ibrahim al-Qurashi, was killed earlier this year in a US raid in Idlib province in northern Syria.
His predecessor Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was killed, also in Idlib, in October 2019.
The front man did not provide details on the new leader, but said he was a "veteran" jihadist and called on all groups loyal to IS to pledge their allegiance.
Hassan Hassan, who authored a book on IS, said one "unprecedented" but possible scenario was that the Hashimi "was killed 'accidentally' during a raid or fighting without him being known to whoever killed him".
In October this year, US forces killed a "senior" IS member in a pre-dawn raid in northeastern Syria, the US military's Central Command said at the time.
It said a later air strike had killed two other senior IS members.
The US leads a military coalition battling IS in Syria.
In July, the Pentagon said it had killed Syria's top IS jihadist in a dronezap in the north of the country.
US Central Command said he had been "one of the top five" IS leaders.
The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor... in September said security forces had arrested a "senior executive" of IS known as Abu Zeyd, whose real name was Bashar Khattab Ghazal al-Sumaidai.
Ottoman Turkish media said there were some indications Sumaidai might have been the IS leader.
Identity[edit]
Abu al-Hasan is his kunya. Al-Hashimi and al-Qurashi indicate that he claims to be a descendant of Muhammad, belonging to the Banu Hashim clan of the Quraysh tribe.
Al Ain News reported in March 2022 that al-Qurashi's real name is Zaid, an Iraqi national and the former emir of the Diwan of Education.[12] A May 2022 UNSC report expanded on this, claiming that the most likely candidate as to his real identity is an Iraqi national by the name of Bashar Khattab Ghazal al-Sumaida'i, also known as Haji Zaid,[13] stating:[14]
Abu al-Hassan’s identity is not yet established but has been much discussed among Member States, with Iraqi national Bashar Khattab Ghazal al-Sumaida’i cited as the most likely candidate. Some Member States suggested that al-Sumaida’i was arrested in Turkey near Istanbul in May; others maintain that he remains at large. ISIL has not yet commented.
Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan corroborated this after his arrest, claiming that al-Sumaida’i had been acting as the highest figure in ISIL since the death of former caliph Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi.[15] IS, however, have never named their caliph to be al-Sumaida’i, and denied that he is currently imprisoned.[11][16]
There are also other theories as to his identity. According to two unnamed Iraqi security officials, al-Qurashi's real name is Juma Awad al-Badri, and he is the elder brother of former IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Research by Iraqi historian Hisham al-Hashimi published in 2020 stated that al-Badri was head of the five-member Shura Council.[17]
Alleged arrest[edit]
On 26 May 2022, informed sources told Sky News Arabia that Abu al-Hasan was arrested in Istanbul, and that security forces had reported the arrest to Erdoğan, who was expected to announce the news about the suspect.[18][19] Turkish state-run Anadolu Agency later claimed that Turkish intelligence had been tracking his movements in Syria for a long period of time, and arrested him promptly after he illegally entered Turkey.[20] In July, a UN security council report stated that there is no available clarification regarding the Turkish claim.[13] ISIL denied the news in same month, in the 347th issue of its weekly newsletter Al-Naba.[11] On 8 September 2022, Erdoğan officially announced the arrest of Bashar Khattab Ghazal al-Sumaida'i, saying that he had been transferred to Judicial authorities after the arrest.[20][15] On 16 September 2022, Islamic State spokesperson Abu Umar al-Muhajir seemingly denied claims that their caliph had been arrested, calling on Muslims globally to pledge allegiance to him.[16]
The US Central Command announced that a prominent ISIS leader was killed in Daraa, Syria.
“The death of Abu al-Hassan al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi in mid-October is another blow to ISIS. This operation was conducted by The Free Syrian Army in Dar’a (Daraa) province in Syria.” The Command said in a statement.

"...And with that, we say 'Aloha!' to Abu Hassan, and look forward to meeting the new guy. Remember, the drone control van is open around the clock for your dining and dancing pleasure!"
