[MAIL] SAN DIEGO (AP) - After a contentious standoff between the state and federal government, California National Guard troops started training Thursday with the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol to be camera operators, radio dispatchers, and to fill other support roles.
President Donald Trump ordered National Guard troops to deploy to the U.S.-Mexico border to help federal authorities combat illegal immigration and drug trafficking.
California's all-Democratic leadership has positioned the state as a national leader in battling the Trump administration, especially on immigration issues. Government leaders at the state level and in big cities have condemned mass raids and deportation efforts, President Donald Trump's call for a border wall with Mexico and Attorney General Jeff Sessions' "zero tolerance" order to prosecute people caught illegally entering the United States for the first time.

I eagerly await the sub-division of California into three separate States. ( Don't know what names the three new States will choose...find that interesting and amusing. )
But three new states in place of that one... it would mean three separate Governors and three new Legislatures...and National Congress would need three new sets of Senators and lots of changes with the House of Representatives and at National Election time there would be new Electoral College voting positions.
And California would be a thing of the past.
Plus we could reasonably expect none of the three to agree on anything and we could watch them al squabble....loads of fun.

ICE is gonna have to watch these people the whole time they're on duty. How reliable can they be if they're taking orders from Moonbeam? They might be more trouble than they're worth.

[AlAhram] Ottoman Turkish police on Friday detained 150 soldiers over suspected links to the movement Ankara blames for the 2016 failed coup, state media reported.
The Istanbul prosecutor had issued arrest warrants for 300 soldiers, including 211 on active duty, state news agency Anadolu said.
Since the July 2016 attempted putsch more than 50,000 people have been placed in durance vile Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out! and 140,000 public workers, including military personnel, have been sacked or suspended over alleged links to the US-based preacher Fethullah Gülen ... a Turkish preacher living in Pennsylvania whom the current govt of Turkey considers responsible for all the ills afflicting Turkey and possibly the entire world... or Kurdish krazed killers.
Istanbul police took 150 soldiers into custody during the latest operation, Anadolu reported said, as part of an investigation into the Gulen movement inside the armed forces.
Some 8,500 Ottoman Turkish armed forces personnel have been sacked so far, including 150 generals, which is more than half of the military's pre-coup contingent of top-ranking officers.
More than half? That seems unwise.
Last month, Ottoman Turkish Defence Minister Nurettin Canikli said authorities would soon dismiss nearly 3,000 more military personnel via emergency decree.
Five days after the coup bid, The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund.... introduced a state of emergency which was renewed for a seventh time last month despite Ankara's Western allies calling for it to end.

[IsraelTimes] Perpetrator flees after attack at checkpoint northwest of Nablus; in second incident near Hebron, driver locked away Drop the rosco, Muggsy, or you're one with the ages! , none hurt
An Israeli soldier was lightly maimed early Friday evening in a car-ramming attack outside the northern West Bank settlement of Shavei Shomron, the army said.
The soldier was standing at a checkpoint outside the settlement, northwest of Nablus, when the car hit him. The driver then expeditiously departed at a goodly pace, according to the military.
The Magen David Adom ambulance service said medics treated the 20-year-old at the scene and evacuated him to a hospital. IDF troops were searching the area for the perpetrator.
Clashes between Paleostinians and soldiers were reported earlier in the Nablus area, where several people were reported injured by rubber bullets and tear gas inhalation.
In a second ramming attack near Hebron,
...Hamas Central in the West Bank...
a driver attempted and failed to hit a soldier at a checkpoint. The driver was arrested.
[Ynet] For the second time in recent days, Paleostinian rioters destroy infrastructure and equipment meant to benefit them during violent festivities on the Gazoo border.
Hundreds of Paleostinian rioters vandalized and set fire to a fuel complex and a conveyor belt on the Gazoo side of Kerem Shalom, the strip's main cargo crossing with Israel, causing more than $9 million in damages and disrupting the import of diesel fuel and building materials.
According to the IDF, the fuel installation is the only way to bring diesel fuel into Gazoo for operating generators for hospitals and other key facilities.
A video from the Kerem Shalom crossing shows Paleostinians cheering as a fire was set.
It was the second such attack on the facility in a week. "Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, continues to lead the residents of Gazoo to destroy the only assistance they receive," the IDF said.
Nissim Jan, the director of an Israeli company that operates Kerem Shalom in partnership with private Paleostinian companies, said he spent large sums to repair last week's damage. "This time I can't repair and will not repair it. Where shall I bring money from?" he said.
Some 15,000 Paleostinian rioters burned tires and threw grenades, pipe bombs and stones at IDF troops near the Gazoo border with Israel on Friday.
Some protesters flew kites with burning rags attached. One of the kites was downed by a small Israeli drone. Others caused fires in open areas in Israeli communities by the Gazoo border. Most of the fires broke out in the Shaar HaNegev Regional Council area, and firefighters were able to gain control of all of them.
Several Paleostinian rioters attempted to sabotage the fence and other security measures on the border.
A 40-year-old Paleostinian was rubbed out in his chest in festivities with the IDF east of Khan Yunis in the southern part of the strip, according to Gazoo health officials.
At least 176 Paleostinians were maimed by live fire, including a 16-year-old boy shot in the head, the Paleostinian health officials added. Dozens of others were overcome by tear gas inhalation.
Since the Hamas-led marches began in late March, 44 Paleostinians have been killed and more than 1,800 maimed by Israel army fire, according to figures provided by Gazoo sources.
Fog of protest: The Jerusalem Post gives us 5,000 rioters, one dead, 170 wounded, and 44 dead over the weeks of protests. And Dawn names the dead guy:
Forty-year-old Jaber Abu Mustafa died after he was shot in the chest near Khan Yunis in the southern Gazoo Strip, the ministry said.
Nearly 150 other Paleostinians were shot by Israeli forces during the demonstrations, the ministry said.
The death takes to 53 the number of Paleostinians killed since protests began on March 30 calling for Paleostinians to be able to return to the homes they fled in 1948, which are now inside Israel.
Thousands of Paleostinians gathered at five different points along the border, AFP correspondents at the scene said.
[IsraelTimes] A Gazook is reportedly injured by IDF fire as the weekly "March of Return" festivities resume on the border between the Gazoo Strip and Israel. The Gazook is said to be launching a burning kite toward Israel when he is maimed. It would be the first known IDF shooting of a Paleostinian kite flyer.

Led by their 5th Legion, the Syrian Army was able to expand on their territorial gains from yesterday by seizing many points near the desert towns of al-Fayzah and al-Tamah.
The Syrian Army was given a big boost from their Russian allies, who repeatedly bombarded the Islamic State’s positions inside the vast Badiya region that stretches from eastern Homs to western Deir Ezzor.
Similar to their other battles against the Islamic State, the Syrian Army is currently working to split this large pocket and isolate the Islamic State forces from one another.
