[AFRICANEWS] "Arbitrary arrests", "forced displacements" and "illegal expulsions" towards the borders with Libya and Algeria, migrants colonists, refugees and asylum seekers in Tunisia suffer " daily institutional violence", denounced the World Organization Against Torture (OMCT), based in Geneva, in a report published on Monday.
The 58-page study, which cites direct testimonies and from partner NGOs, points the finger "responsibility" Tunisian authorities in"violations committed on the territory, including border areas".

Institutional Violence would be a good band name.
[GEO.TV] Egypt's President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has won a decisive victory, securing a third term as the leader of the Middle East's most populous nation.
The National Elections Authority announced on Monday that Sisi garnered an overwhelming 89.6% of the vote in an election held between December 10 and 12, with an unprecedented turnout of 66.8%.
Over 39 million Egyptians cast their ballots in support of Sisi, a former army chief who has governed the nation for a decade. Despite various challenges, including the Israel-Hamas ...not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... war in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... and a severe economic crisis, the result of the election was widely anticipated.
The absence of serious opposition can be attributed to a decade-long crackdown on dissent, leaving Sisi as the dominant figure. In the election, he faced three other candidates, none of whom were high-profile contenders.
[IsraelTimes] South Africans fighting for Israel in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks.

The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... could face prosecution at home, the government warns, as South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa once again denounces the conflict as "genocide."
The foreign ministry says it’s "gravely concerned" by reports that some South African nationals have joined the Israeli Defense Forces to fight in Gaza, or are considering doing so.
"Such action can potentially contribute to the violation of international law and the commission of further international crimes, thus making them liable for prosecution in South Africa," the ministry says.
It doesn’t specify how many South Africans are thought to have enlisted.
The government has previously said the State Security Agency (SSA) was tracking them down.
South Africans need prior government approval to legally fight in Israel, the ministry says.
Naturalized citizens are at further risk of being stripped of their South African nationality for engaging in a war that the country "does not support or agree with," the foreign ministry adds.
[IsraelTimes] Algerian international footballer Youcef Atal goes on trial in France, accused of inciting hatred after posting a video in which a Palestinian preacher threatens Israel with a “black day.”
Atal, who plays for Ligue 1 side Nice, shared the video on his Instagram account, which has 3.2 million followers, shortly after the attack by Hamas terrorists on Israel on October 7 in which they killed some 1,200 people, most of them civilians, and took 240 hostages.
The 27-year-old defender, who quickly deleted the post and issued an apology, was suspended by his club while prosecutors probed the incident for suspected “justification of terrorism.”
But they dropped that line of investigation after watching the video and questioning the player, instead charging him with “incitement to religious hatred.”
[IsraelTimes] the Socialist paradise of San Francisco ...where God struck dead Anton LaVey, home of the Sydney Ducks, ruled by Vigilance Committee from 1859 through 1867, reliably and volubly Democrat since 1964... prosecutors begin charging 80 protesters who last month blocked traffic for hours on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge while demanding a ceasefire in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... The protest came as San Francisco was hosting US President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. You're a lyin' dog-faced pony soldier... and other world leaders for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit.
Seventeen people are appearing in court today to face charges of false imprisonment, refusing to comply with a peace officer, unlawful public assembly, refusing to disperse and obstruction of street, sidewalk or other place open to public. Their arraignments are continued to February.
Hundreds of demonstrators holding signs that read "Biden: Ceasefire Now" and "Free Free Paleostine" and "Drop the Charges!" held a news conference outside the court before the arraignments of those charged began.
Aisha Nizar, of the Paleostinian Youth Movement, says she was among those who were arrested and charged but does not plan to stop demonstrating.
"We are more resolute in our demands for a ceasefire than ever," Nizar says outside the court.
About 200 protesters participated in the demonstration during the global trade summit, and blocked all lanes of traffic into San Francisco on the bridge’s upper deck, with some drivers tossing their keys into the bay. Dozens of them were arrested and 29 vehicles were towed. Protesters demanded that Biden call for an immediate ceasefire in the war between Israel and Hamas ...always the voice of sweet reason... The demonstrators who were charged will be arraigned in batches throughout the week, prosecutors say.

With SF, the home of odd balls, deviants and various lunatic types in the USA.
If an Earthquake and Tsunami hit SF today.
Would it be recorded in history as "Sodom and Gomorrah Part II", or would the LSD Media blame it on old Off Shore Oil Drilling and demand $$$ Billion from the Oil Companies?

Most likely it would be blamed on climate change but, you never know, Newsom might blame it on those pesky MAGA types.

[GEO.TV] UN Security Council has postponed the fresh vote on a resolution seeking a ceasefire in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... to Tuesday, diplomatic sources say.
The United Arab Emirates, which introduced the latest text, requested that the vote on Monday be postponed so that complex negotiations could proceed. The vote is now expected to be rescheduled for Tuesday.
The draft called for an "urgent and sustainable cessation of hostilities" in Gaza to allow "safe and unhindered humanitarian access" in the besieged Paleostinian territory.
The delay suggests that UN diplomats have not yet found common ground to reach a consensus on the vote.
Given the international support in the General Assembly for the Gaza ceasefire last Tuesday, the Arab countries prepared the Security Council resolution though its fate remains uncertain.
AFP reports that the draft affirms support for a two-state solution in the region and "stresses the importance of unifying the Gaza Strip with the West Bank under the Paleostinian Authority."
While the draft does not mention Hamas ...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,... , it demands the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages and condemns "violence and hostilities against civilians, as well as acts of terrorism."
Will America once again veto the current nonsense the UNSC is getting up to? Check back later in the day to see!

[IsraelTimes] The IDF releases footage showing recent aborted Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s in the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Strip due to the presence of civilians.
"Hamas ...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... sees civilian death as a strategy, we see it as a tragedy, which is why we use many measures to try and minimize the civilian harm and suffering. That is the tragic reality in this war that Hamas started," says IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari in an English-language video statement.
He says the IDF warns civilians before attacks "whenever possible."
"We abort attacks when we see unexpected civilian presence. We choose the right munition for each target, so it doesn’t cause unnecessary damage," Hagari says.
"We also recommend civilians to temporarily move away from areas of intense fighting," he says.
"We know this is hard, but we are trying to save lives. We have also offered international organizations to set up humanitarian zones. We use tactical pauses to allow for the evacuation of civilians, and the distribution of humanitarian aid," Hagari continues.
He says that Israel "is not restricting the amount of humanitarian aid that can enter Gaza."
"We know civilians in Gaza are suffering. This is because of Hamas’s strategy and tactics, and because Hamas steals the international aid, meant for them," Hagari says.
"Our intent is to defeat Hamas and secure the release of our hostages. The tragic suffering of civilians in Gaza is not our intent," Hagari says, adding that "our actions reflect this."
[IsraelTimes] The State Attorney’s Office files an indictment against a Jewish citizen for incitement to terrorism, violence, and racism, for posting incendiary messages on social media against Paleostinians and Moslems, including calling for the "extermination" of all Moslems on the planet.
The indictment against Noam Dayan, a 34-year old resident of Zichron Ya’akov, is the third indictment against a Jewish citizen for such crimes since the October 7 atrocities perpetrated by Hamas ...a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",... In one post on Telegram, Dayan wrote, "The time has come to slaughter Gazook babies in the cradle."
In other Telegram posts, he wrote, "After this they tell me we don’t need to rape Paleostinian women"; "I personally would enjoy smashing the skulls of Arab babies"; "Paleostinian girls need to be raped"; and "We need to create extermination camps for Paleostinians."
In other posts he wrote, "What’s important is to kill every Moslem and Arab on the planet," and "Moslems need to be exterminated, period. Until the last one. Moslems are not humans, they are not even cockroaches, they are air, dust, nothing. Exterminate the plague, now."
The State Attorney’s Office requests that Dayan be imprisoned until the end of legal proceedings against him.
Dozens of indictments have been filed against Arab Israeli citizens for incitement and identifying with terrorist groups since October 7, with the State Attorney’s Office requesting that many of them remain in prison until legal proceedings are concluded.
[israelTimes] Nearly 200 trucks of humanitarian aid entered Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... yesterday for the first time since last month’s seven-day truce, White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby says.
The spike in the number of trucks after weeks of far lower numbers is due at least partially to the "significant" decision by Israel to reopen its Kerem Shalom Crossing for the first time since the start of the war.
Eighty trucks entered Gaza through Kerem Shalom alone yesterday, while the other 120 or so trucks entered Gaza through Egypt’s Rafah Crossing.
[IsraelTimes] Video appears to show Hamas stealing trucks of humanitarian aid that have entered the Gaza Strip from Egypt.
Masked and armed men sit on top of the supplies as the trucks are driven deeper into the Strip.
Hebrew-language media reports the men are from Hamas.
Other footage shows Gazan civilians looting supplies shortly after they arrive through the Rafah crossing.
While there is a growing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Israel has long said that the Hamas terror group has stockpiled supplies and kept them from increasingly desperate civilians.
[IsraelTimes] A Foreign Ministry team has been working in recent weeks on an Israeli vision for Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... on the day after the war ends, Channel 12 reports.
The team was established by Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, and the document is intended to be presented for discussion by the cabinet, the report says.
The guiding principle, the TV report says, is: "Israel is working to bring about a future in which the Paleostinians will govern themselves with no capacity to threaten Israel."
The document includes no specific provision for a role for the Paleostinian Authority, as the US has said it ultimately seeks, but does hint at a role for Gaza-based officials from the PA’s main Fatah component.
Regarding security, the document provides for "complete freedom of action for the IDF" in Gaza; prevention of any rearming and the "enforcement of full demilitarization" in the enclave; the establishment of "buffer zones"; a mechanism to prevent smuggling; oversight of the Philadelphi Corridor along the Gaza-Egypt border and at the Rafah border crossing, and a "maritime security force."
Regarding civil governance, the document provides for "an international mechanism to handle humanitarian services."
It envisages key regional states including Egypt, Soddy 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. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... , and the UAE administering civilian life, along with international organizations already active in Gaza including UN agencies, together with "local elements not identified with Hamas ...a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",... " — which the TV report describes as "a euphemism" for Gaza-based Fatah clerks.
The document also reportedly provides for an overhaul of the curriculum in UNRWA schools.
Despite claims to the contrary, Israel is not alone.
[IsraelTimes] A delegation of 65 investors, CEOs, and senior executives of US-based technology, venture capital and private equity firms is set to arrive in Israel today in a show of solidarity and to hold meetings.
The group — including senior executives from Bain Capital, Meetup.com, Apollo, Houzz, TPG, Susquehanna Growth Equity — will meet President Isaac Herzog, war cabinet Minister Benny Gantz and Economy Minister Nir Barkat.
They will also hold meetings with local business leaders including Mellanox CEO Eyal Waldman, whose 24-year-old daughter Danielle was one of 360 people murdered by Hamas ...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,... turbans at the Nova Festival on October 7. All told, some 1,200 people were killed by turbans that day, most of them civilians, and 240 taken hostage.
"After October 7th, we feel it is critical for venture capital and technology business leaders to stand with Israel. That means more than donating, but also being present to say that we have always been and will always be there to support Israel’s flourishing tech ecosystem. We will invest and continue to stand with the ’Start-Up Nation,’" says David Siegel, CEO of Meetup.com and co-organizer of the Israeli Tech Mission, in a press statement.
"Our trip was oversubscribed for attendees. The technology community recognizes the heightened need for support as many Israeli entrepreneurs and their workforces are on the front lines as reservists," he says.
Aleph founder Michael Eisenberg says, "Smart investors understand Israel’s resilience and that today is actually the perfect time to invest in Israel."
[GEO.TV] Israel will gradually transition to the next phase of operations in the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks.

The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... war in which the local population may be able to return to the north of the coastal strip, the country's defence minister said on Monday.
"I can tell you that soon we will be able to distinguish between different areas in Gaza," Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said in a joint news conference with his US counterpart Lloyd Austin in Tel Aviv.
Gallant said this would allow Israel to start working on bringing back local population "maybe sooner in the North" of Gaza than in the South.

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.
