[DAWN] A majority of faceless myrmidons fleeing operations in Pakistain's Mohmand and Orakzai agencies joined the Afghan chapter of the Death EaterIslamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're 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 the pols talk they're not really Moslems.... (IS) group, Afghanistan's Ambassador to Pakistain Janan Mosazai said on Wednesday.
Addressing a seminar in Islamabad, the Afghan envoy said IS has become a major threat in the region.
About 60 to 70 per cent faceless myrmidons fleeing Pakistain during offensives in Mohmand and Orakzai went on to join IS in Afghanistan, Mosazai claimed.
He said terrorism was a common issue for both Pakistain and Afghanistan, and reiterated the Afghan government's commitment to not allow anyone to use its territory against Pakistain.
Mosazai said Afghanistan was committed to its policy of non-interference in neighbouring countries, including Pakistain.
Kabul ...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the World and didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either.... wants good neighbouring relations with Pakistain as it is important for the economic prosperity of Afghanistan, the envoy said.
Mosazai said Kabul recognises the importance of the China Pakistain Economic Corridor, which he said will have a positive impact on the economy of Afghanistan as well.
Reports in the past suggested that faceless myrmidons fleeing military operations in different regions of Federally Administered Tribal Areas joined various terrorist groups in Afghanistan.
Security officials have warned against IS gaining a foothold in Afghanistan's eastern region, where the group reportedly murdered tribal elders, clashed with the rival Taliban, imprisoned families and enforced strict rules on women.
Afghanistan does not provide a natural constituency from which IS can recruit, meaning the group relies heavily on defections from existing myrmidon outfits.
Backed by US drone strikes, Afghan cops last year mobilised and eliminated multiple IS leaders along with dozens, if not hundreds, of Death Eaters.

[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The delivery of ten thousand AK-47 assault rifles by Russia to the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) will be completed by this month, the officials said Wednesday.
A front man for the National Security Adviser, Tawab Ghorzang, said Deputy National Security Adviser Mohammad Sulaiman Kakar met with the Russian Ambassador to Afghanistan Mr. Alexander Mantytskiy in his office today.
He said the two sides discussed bilateral relations and joint fight against terrorism by Kabul ...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the World and didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either.... and Moscow.
Mr. Kakar also held talks over the Afghan peace efforts and Russia's military support to the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF), Ghorzang said, adding that Mr. Kakar emphasized on regional cooperation to combat terrorism.
Meanwhile, ...back at the Hubba Hubba Club, Nunzio wondered: Where the hell was Chumbaloni? And where was his $600?... the Russian Ambassador said Moscow remains committed to support the Afghan government in reconciliation process with the anti-government armed bad boy grouips.
He also reaffirmed Moscow's support to Afghanistan in all sectors and informed the Deputy National Security Adviser regarding the delivery of ten thousand AK-47 Assault Rifles to Afghanistan this month.
This comes as the Afghan government has stepped up efforts to attract the regional as well as global support to equip the Afghan national security forces.
The delivery of the assault rifles is part of Russia's support to bolster the capabilities of the Afghan cops to fight the menace of terrorism.
"Russia has been consistently pursuing the policy of providing comprehensive assistance to Afghanistan in the establishment of a peaceful, independent, stable and self-sufficient state, free from terrorism and drugs," Russian President's special envoy for Afghanistan, Zamir Kabulov said late in December last year while informing regarding the dispatch of the rifles to the Afghan forces.

[ALMANAR.LB] Nearly 10 million Yemeni children are victims of pain and suffering because of the war in the country, the UNICEF said. That's a lot of kids out of a total population of 24 million.
In a statement published on Tuesday, Julien Harneis, UNICEF Representative in Yemen, said that the "continuous bombardment and street fighting are exposing children and their families to a deadly combination of violence, disease and deprivation."Yemeni children suffer from war
UN statistics showed that the "direct impact of the conflict on children is hard to measure."
"The statistics confirmed by the UN (747 children killed and another 1,108 injured since March last year; 724 children pressed into some form of military activity) tell only part of the story. But they are shocking enough in themselves," the statement said.
It went on to talk about the broader effects of violence on civilians.
"The broader effects of the violence on innocent civilians extend much further.
Children make up at least half of the 2.3 million people estimated to have been displaced from their homes, and of the more than 19 million people struggling to get water on a daily basis; 1.3 million children under five face the risk of acute malnutrition and acute respiratory tract infections. And at least 2 million children cannot go to school."
Public services like health, water and sanitation have been decimated and cannot meet the ever-increasing needs of a desperate population, Harneis said in the statement.
Few of the 7.4 million children requiring protection (including psycho-social support to help deal with the effects of their exposure to violence) will actually receive it, he added.
Harneis note that international agencies are doing their best in "extremely hazardous working environment," but stressed that "so much more is needed."
"The children of 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. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... need urgent help and they need it now... What is really needed -- above all else -- is an end to the conflict. Only in that way can the children of Yemen look forward to 2016 with hope rather than despair," the statement concluded.

[Dhaka Tribune] District-based Islamic scholars have started identifying the members of Jamaat-e-Islami ...The Islamic Society, founded in 1941 in Lahore by Maulana Sayyid Abul Ala Maududi, aka The Great Apostosizer. The Jamaat opposed the independence of Bangladesh but has operated an independent branch there since 1975. It maintains close ties with international Mohammedan groups such as the Moslem Brotherhood. the Taliban, and al-Qaeda. The Jamaat's objectives are the establishment of a pure Islamic state, governed by Sharia law. It is distinguished by its xenophobia, and its opposition to Westernization, capitalism, socialism, secularism, and liberalist social mores... and snuffies in the mosque management committees across the country.
Primarily, they have identified several dozens of such mosques in Chittagong, Sylhet, Habiganj, Dinajpur, Bogra, Satkhira and Chandpur districts. After information on all the mosques are collected, the police will scrutinise those and take further action.

[AA.TR] South Korean President Park Geun-hye made it clear Wednesday that China has a "necessary role" to play in forcing North Korea to back down from its current policy of nuclear armament.
In an address to her own nation, Park spoke of the need to properly punish Pyongyang, after the North claimed last week that it had carried out its first hydrogen bomb test.
Any sanctions would be useless, according to the South's leader, unless North Korea actually "feels pain" -- Beijing has been accused in the past of failing to ensure Pyongyang feels the squeeze of international restrictions.
On the contrary, the North has refused to engage in denuclearization talks since 2008, and has conducted several nuclear tests and missile launches in that time.

[ALMANAR.LB] Oil dived Tuesday close to $30 on abundant crude supplies, as OPEC member Nigeria called for an emergency meeting to address collapsing prices that have ravaged revenues.
In late afternoon deals, New York's benchmark West Texas Intermediate (WTI) for February delivery tanked to $30.10 a barrel, which was the lowest level since December 2, 2003.
Europe's Brent North Sea crude for February had earlier dived to $30.43, a point last seen on April 6, 2004.

Tain't ravaged ma revenues none. Jes' the opposite.
Sweden will not have any role to play in the Israeli-Palestinian diplomatic process as a result of Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom's hostility toward Israel, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said on Wednesday.
The statement came as the ministry announced that its deputy director-general for Western Europe, Aviv Shir-On, called in Swedish ambassador Carl Magnus Nesser to protest Wallstrom's comments.
The decision to summons Nesser was made by Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who directed Shir-On to protest not only the statements, but to register the government and the country's anger at what they see as Sweden's imbalance and hostile attitude toward Israel. But we'll be willing to sell Sweden some (post) rape medical kits.
[AnNahar] Authorities in the northern French port of Calais were struggling to move hundreds of migrants into refitted shipping containers on Wednesday ahead of plans to bulldoze part of the notorious "Jungle" camp.
The government had planned to move 500-700 migrants and refugees out of the grim makeshift camp into refitted containers with heaters, electricity plugs and cribs for newborns. But many are reluctant to leave their tents, cafes and shops in the Jungle, and are suspicious about the new camp, which is surrounded by barbed wire and requires a fingerprint scan to come and go.
There is concern that the 125 containers -- each holding 12 people -- are not nearly enough for the 4,000 people currently estimated to be in the Jungle, who are trying to smuggle their way to Britannia by ferry or on cross-Channel trains.

Give the "migrants" credit for some brains: these ARE shipping containers. They go to bed one night, and in the morning the doors are locked, the floor is swaying, and they find out they're on a ship chartered by Nigel Farage, with the whole lot are headed back to Syria...
Michael J. Totten, always always worth the read, describes the issue at length in the World Affairs Journal. Very long so just a few paragraphs here to whet your appetite. Egypt apparently is the worst, to which Lara Logan could attest. Hat tip Instapundit.
Germany is in an uproar. Protests are breaking out everywhere, with demonstrators yelling “deport them” and carrying signs that say “Rapefugees not welcome” in English.
The culprits are mostly Arabs, and Merkel’s refugee policy is predictably collapsing as a result, but the rapefest in Cologne was not imported from Syria. It mostly comes from North Africa.
Women have fewer rights in the Middle East and North Africa than anywhere else in the world with the single exception of Afghanistan, and they’re abused far more often over there than anywhere in the West, but they aren’t routinely assaulted by hundreds of men in unruly mobs all at once anywhere except Egypt.

Men began to rip off my clothes. I was stripped naked. Their insatiable appetite to hurt me heightened. These men, hundreds of them, had turned from humans to animals.

[BRISBANETIMES.AU] Denmark's parliament started to debate a raft of proposals on changing immigration laws, including a measure that would allow the authorities to confiscate all valuables belonging to refugees worth more than10,000 Danish crowns ($2083), and then use them to pay for the refugee's stay.
The proposal has been condemned by international media as well as the United Nations refugee agency.
"It is very odiously reminiscent of the German past – leave the valuables and go to the showers," Derek Beach, an associate professor in political science at Aarhus University, said. Except for the showers. And the fact that Denmark's not Germany. I think it was Mark Twain who pointed out that once a cat's sat on a hot stove it won't do it again, but neither will it sit on a cold one.
Immigration Minister Inger Stojberg has defended the proposal as being in keeping with a Danish norm that if you can pay for yourself, you must do so.
The Immigration Ministry said on Wednesday it would extend its temporary border checks at the usually open border with Germany until February 3, after an initial 10-day period expired.
Denmark has extended until February 3 passport controls and spot checks it introduced this month on its border with Germany.
"The assessment is that there is still a risk that a large number of illegal immigrants accumulate in Denmark," the ministry said in a statement.
More than 21,000 asylum seekers came to Denmark last year, up from about 14,800 in 2014. The government expects about 25,000 people to claim asylum in 2016.
Denmark, which swung to the right in the last election in June, is one of several European Union countries trying to discourage migrants from seeking asylum on its territory.

Even the suggestion might reroute the problem to other destination countries.
[AA.TR] The U.S. defense chief said Wednesday that special forces troops that were announced last month to be deployed to Iraq have arrived in the country.
"The specialized expeditionary targeting force I announced in December is now in place and is preparing to work with the Iraqis to begin going after ISIL's fighters and commanders, killing or capturing them wherever we find them, along with other key targets," said Ash Carter as he briefed service members who will soon be deployed to Iraq.
He said the anti-Daesh [Islamic State] campaign has three prongs, namely "destroying the parent tumor" of Daesh [Islamic State] in djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... , Iraq, and al-Raqqa, Syria; preventing the holy warrior group's "metastasizing in areas such as North Africa, Afghanistan, and Yemen" and protecting the U.S. homeland.
He also noted his meeting with his counterparts from La Belle France, Australia, Germany, Italia, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom in Gay Paree to discuss the fight against the holy warriors.
When Carter initially announced the special forces deployment, he said the troops would "conduct raids, free hostages, gather intelligence, and capture ISIL leaders," as part of a revision of the anti-Daesh [Islamic State] strategy.

[AA.TR] Four individuals, including three Americans, have filed a civil suit against Israel, seeking compensatory damages for injuries suffered during an attack aboard a U.S. ship in international waters in 2010.
During a Washington presser Tuesday, the plaintiffs said they wanted compensation for "the harm and distress, injuries and losses caused by the attack".
Israel has refused to acknowledge responsibility and liability for the attack and is yet to pay compensation to victims aboard the Challenger I that was part of a Freedom Flotilla set to deliver humanitarian aid and medical supplies to Gazoo that was and still remains under an Israeli blockade.
According to the complaint, the U.S ship has never been returned by Israel and is still being held there.
Israeli special forces stormed the ships and killed nine civilians aboard another ship in the flotilla, the Turkish Mavi Marmara. That event has since frozen relations between Israel and The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... .

[AnNahar] Syrian rebels in a former opposition stronghold in Homs will relinquish nearly half their heavy weapons as part of a landmark truce with the government, the provincial governor said Wednesday.
Talal Barazi told AFP that the second phase of the agreement over Waer, which had been the last opposition-held neighborhood in the central city, was under way.
The deal was reached in December and envisions Waer coming under government control in exchange for the lifting of a devastating three-year siege.
In the first step, carried out last month, about 700 people -- 400 women and kiddies and 300 rebel fighters -- were evacuated from the district.
According to Barazi, "the second phase of the Waer agreement began four days ago and will continue until the beginning of February."
He said that it had started with a call for rebels to prepare to give up the weapons but that the handover had not yet started.
Barazi described the implementation of the deal as a "trust-building process".
Rebels are expected to hand over "nearly 50 percent of all medium- and heavy-weaponry, like machine guns and mortars," he told AFP by telephone.
Government forces will also open a second crossing point into the neighborhood, allowing residents and displaced individuals to travel more freely, Barazi added.
State institutions, including health centers, will begin gradually reopening in Waer.
Barazi said a "reconciliation process" would begin for the rebel fighters still in the district, estimated to number about 1,000.
"Whoever wants to regularize his status should present himself to the relevant authorities with information about his activities," Barazi said.
Opposition fighters who did not want to do so would be evacuated from the neighborhood in the third phase, he added.
They are expected to take the remaining 50 percent of heavy weaponry with them.
Similar local truces have been implemented in other parts of Syria, with rebels leaving towns or handing over weapons in exchange for an end to crippling sieges.
Both Syria's government and the United Nations ...where theory meets practice and practice loses... have been pushing for such localized ceasefires as a way to end Syria's nearly five-year war, which has left more than 260,000 people dead.

[ALMANAR.LB] It is supposed that the trucks carrying flour will arrive in the Syrian towns of Madaya, Kefraya and Fouaa on Thursday, al-Manar correspondent in Syria reported.
This move, which is supervised by the United Nations and the Red Cross, comes just few days after humanitarian aids entered these towns following long delay caused by the Takfiri terrorists.
Our correspondent said that the number of the civilians who get out of Madaya, in Damascus countryside, on Monday reached 300, noting that they got out of the town under a deal with the Syrian government.
80 men joined the fourth battalion of the Syrian army, the correspondent reported.
Under the deal, UN representatives entered Madaya, however they did not get into Kefraya and Fouaa, in Idlib countryside, under the pretext that there are checkpoints for Nusra Front and Ahrar al-Sham terrorists in the two towns, the correspondent said.
However, he noted that Nusra Front and Ahrar al-Sham insurgents also control the checkpoints in Madaya.
The Correspondent meanwhile, reported that residents in Kefraya and Fouaa call upon the UN representatives to get in to the two towns in order to inspect the humanitarian situation there.
Al-Manar had earlier exposed how the Takfiri insurgents have been using the civilians in these towns as human shields and preventing access to food supplies.
When the aid got into Kefraya, Fouaa and Madaya on Monday, the residents assured that the terrorists were selling the food aids which were delivered to these towns.

[AA.TR] The residents of at least 13 Syrian towns and villages under siege by the Assad regime and its allies now face the specter of starvation, according to local sources.
Jayrud, Rabayah
Opposition-held Jayrud and Rabayah, both located in eastern Damascus, face frequent attacks by both the Assad regime and Daesh [Islamic State]. Both towns have remained under a regime-imposed blockade since April 2013.
Abu Kamal, a local opposition commander, told Anadolu Agency that 85 percent of the recent deaths in the town had been caused by attacks by regime forces or Daesh [Islamic State].
The city of Al-Dumayr, located some 40 kilometers northeast of Damascus, also remains under a regime-imposed blockade.
Eastern Ghouta, Al-Tall
The Eastern Ghouta region to the east of Damascus, meanwhile, has remained under a regime-imposed siege since December 2012, which has impeded delivery of humanitarian aid and deprived the region of electricity and water supplies.
According to a local coordination committee in Eastern Ghouta's Douma area, some 1,600 local residents have recently died, with an estimated 40 percent of the casualties having been caused by regime Arclight airstrikes and the rest blamed on malnutrition.
The Assad regime attacked the Eastern Ghouta region with sarin gas in August 2013, causing some 1,300 deaths among local residents.
The city of Al-Tall, meanwhile, located west of Eastern Ghouta, has also remained under a regime-imposed siege since June 2015.
The Yarmouk Paleostinian refugee camp has been blockaded by the regime since December 2012.
Many inhabitants of the camp, which is surrounded by Daesh [Islamic State] from the south, have recently moved to The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... 's Hatay province or to the Syrian provinces of Hama, Idlib and Aleppo.
More than 1,000 civilians have been killed in the camp since the Syrian conflict began in early 2011.
Darayya on the southern outskirts of Damascus has also remained under a regime-imposed blockade since late 2012. By July 2015, when the siege entered its 1,000th day, some 2,200 residents had died as a result of the siege or from attacks by the regime.
Local sources say around 1,000 barrel bombs -- improvised bombs -- have been dropped on the region by the Assad regime.
In the town of Muadamiyat al-Sham in southwestern Damascus, meanwhile, some 40,000 civilians have remained under total siege for the last 15 days.
With food not allowed to enter the town, residents say child mortality has skyrocketed due to widespread malnutrition.
The village of Kanaker, meanwhile, located southwest of Damascus, has remained under siege since March 2015.
Al-Waer, Houla, Talbiseh, Al-Rastan
Al-Waer, a central district of Syria's Homs province, also reportedly remains under a regime-imposed blockade.
During the siege of Homs from 2011 to 2015, which ended with the region being handed over to the Assad regime, some 150 people died of malnutrition and an acute lack of medical treatment.
According to the Homs Coordination Center, some areas of Al-Waer are still under siege.
The Houla, Talbiseh and Al-Rastan regions in northern Homs, for their part, have all remained under siege for the last three years.
Madaya
Spanish Ambassador to the UN Roman Oyarzun Marchesi recently quoted UN humanitarian affairs chief Stephen O'Brien as saying that some 400 people in the town of Madaya were in "very critical situation".
This week, a humanitarian aid convoy reached the regime-blockaded town, carrying food and medical supplies for Madaya's 42,000 residents who were starving to death.
Last month, 23 people, including six children, died of starvation in the town, according to a report issued by Madaya's local health committee.
"The humanitarian crisis in Madaya is one more sign of the Assad regime's brutality," U.S. Ambassador to the UN Samantha Power asserted in a recent statement. "Blocking aid in order to starve civilians is grotesque, and one more reason why Assad's supporters should recognize that he has lost legitimacy."
The ongoing conflict in Syria, which will enter its sixth year in early 2016, has left more than 250,000 people dead and turned the country into the world's largest source of refugees and displaced persons, according to the UN.
Since the conflict began, nearly 8 million people have been internally displaced, while more than 4 million have fled to neighboring countries.

Senior Executive level employees at Foggy Bottom making a calculated decision. Give up the data now, or face potential inquiry or prosecution at some future date under a Pub presidency and Attorney General.
Sorry Secretary Clinton, but my daughter is in her fifth year at William & Mary and our Loudoun County residence needs a new slate roof, the under-butler is insisting upon a salary increase, and then there's the pasture fence which needs mending. We simply cannot afford the legal fees.

"Don't these people realise that in about a year there will be a new AG empowered to investigate them?"
They are probably hoping that if they delay long enough they might have some control over who is the new AG. Say she ducks out for Sanders after a backroom deal or something along those lines.
Or they might be hoping to play the vast right wing conspiracy martyr angle that worked so well in the 90s hoping it pops up her numbers.
I think they are forgetting that even the left tends to dislike them on a good day.

This is what happens when new polls come out showing Bernie ahead in New Hampshire AND Iowa. Suddenly Hillary doesn't look like Mrs. President anymore. Suddenly people ask "Why are we protecting this ***hole?" Suddenly all the "Go f**k yourselves" she gave to the peasants come back to haunt her.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
