[SUDANTRIBUNE] Residents of a village west of Sennar in Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... were forced to flee for a second time after the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) gave them 48 hours to leave, an eyewitness told Sudan Tribune.
The villagers had recently returned to Bargo Wadahouba, having been displaced to Sennar six months ago following fighting between the RSF and the Sudanese army. The fighting has escalated since April, despite a brief military operation to regain control of Al Jazirah state.
According to the eyewitness, the RSF has committed widespread abuses in Al Jazirah, including killings, looting, arrests, and forced displacement. The RSF controls most of the state and has exploited communication blackouts to carry out its operations.
The army has been accused of failing to protect civilians, and calls have grown for locals to be armed to defend themselves against the RSF.

Indeed. And for the same reasons - tribal people settling their conflicts by traditional tribal means.
I have a theory that a goodly portion of the "gun violence" in places like Chicago stems from lack of access to the legal system. If normal citizens have a dispute over commerce, they can go to court. But as a criminal, the police will, at best, be uninterested in your problems. Try calling 911 because that quarter DeShawn sold you wouldn't get a fly high. Same with DeShawn trying to get legal relief because someone just shot him in the ass.

He said some opportunistic miscreants attacked vandalized, looted and set fire to a number of government establishments, rivals’ houses, and religious institutions of various religions in different parts of Bangladesh ---in cities and rural areas-- with the advent of a change.
"Those who have conscience and humanity can’t do these acts. That is why our organization is strongly condemning the miscreants who are doing such things repeatedly," said the Jamaat chief.
He said they already urged the people of the country and his party’s leaders and activists to play the role of watchmen where people are in danger as whoever was born in the country is a proud citizen of Bangladesh regardless of caste and religion.
"Here all citizens have equal rights. Here no minority and no majority," said Shafiqur Rahman.

The Jama'at-i-Islamis is an old outfit that was banned shortly after Bangladesh independence. In 1979 it was allowed to openly operated. By 2001 it openly supported Osama Bin Laden was tied with other small radical Islamist parties. The situation got so bad that in 2003 the US State Department warned US citizens in Bangla that they should be ready to leave at a momen't notice. Now after years in the wilderness you can expect the Jama'at to begin raising hell once again.

[SkyNews] Rioters have taken to Belfast's streets for a second night with footage showing petrol bombs and missiles being thrown at police.
The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) warned the public to stay away from certain areas of the city on Monday night as they dealt with public disorder and violence.
At least one police car was burned with several other fires blazing on Monday evening in the Sandy Row and Donegall Road areas in the southern part of Belfast.
Around a dozen people wearing balaclavas and masks threw petrol bombs at PSNI vehicles as riot officers formed lines.
Earlier, a planned anti-immigration protest at the Clayton Hotel failed to materialise.
Belfast was one of several cities that saw anti-immigration riots on Saturday.
Fireworks were thrown as police attempted to deal with a confrontation between anti-racist protesters and an anti-Islamic rally.

[KavkazUzel] Two 18-year-old boys and one minor, whom investigators believe to be supporters of the Islamic State, have been detained in Dagestan on suspicion of preparing an attack on an Orthodox church, sources reported.
As reported by the "Caucasian Knot", on June 23, on Trinity Day, which is one of the main Christian holidays,
…the first Sunday after Pentecost in the Western Christian liturgical calendar, and the Sunday of Pentecost in Eastern Christianity. So now those of us not Christian know, too…
militants attacked synagogues and an Orthodox church in Derbent and Makhachkala. As a result of the attacks, 22 people were killed. On June 23, the American Institute for the Study of War stated that the cell "Vilayat Kavkaz", a division of the "Islamic State" (IS), was behind the attacks .
Security forces detained 18-year-old Gasangusein, his peer Magomed, and a 16-year-old teenager in Dagestan. According to investigators, all three are members of ISIS and intended to commit a terrorist attack in an Orthodox church – they were planning an attack on the Holy Dormition Cathedral in Makhachkala, the Mash Gor Telegram channel reported today, citing a source.
Criminal cases have been opened regarding the terrorist attack and illegal arms trafficking, the Telegram channel "Conscience of Dagestan" noted today, citing a source.
As of 12:45 Moscow time, there are no comments on the websites of the Investigative Committee, the Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for Dagestan, or the website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Dagestan regarding the information about the detention of two young men and one teenager for preparing a terrorist attack.
[NEWARAB] A 22-year-old activist has been convicted of condoning a crime for chanting the slogan "from the river to the sea, Paleostine will be free" at a rally in the German capital Berlin, in a move her defence team slammed as a suppression of free speech.
Ava Moayeri, a German-Iranian national, was arrested just days after Israel's war on Gazoo

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 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.

" when she recited the chant on an 11 October protest near the Sonnenallee boulevard in the Neukölln district, which the activist co-organised.
Before the trial started, Moayeri said in a statement that she had stood by her words but viewed them as positioning for peace in the region rather than support for Hamas. She also asserted that she had rejected "any form of antisemitism". "It was more: 'Go, team, go!' And 'We're number one!'"
The presiding judge, Birgit Balzer rejected Moayeri's defence, stating that the chant had "denied the right of the state of Israel to exist".
Balzer added that the phrase was particularly controversial in Germany, and the nation has an obligation to make Jewish people in the country feel "safe and comfortable" after its role in the horrific Holocaust, during which some six million Jews were systematically murdered.
The Moayeri was ordered to pay a €600 fine.

[JustTheNews] The U.S. Justice Department charged Asif Merchant, 46, a Pak man with alleged ties to the Iranian government with plotting to carry out political liquidations, according to an indictment revealed on Tuesday.
The arrest on July 12 resulted in enhanced security for former President Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... and certain U.S. government officials who the FBI ...Formerly one of the world's premier criminal investigation organizations, something for a nation to be proud of. Now it's a political arm of the Deep State oligarchy that is willing to trump up charges, suppress evidence, or take out insurance policies come election time... reportedly determined were the suspect's targets.
A Justice Department official confirmed the case involving Merchant was the threat that Secret Service was aware of when it became to ramp up Trump's security in the lead up to the Butler, Pa. rally where he was shot.
Federal prosecutors filed the charges in Brooklyn against Merchant, who reportedly traveled to New York City and collaborated with hitmen on the plot.
Merchant is currently in federal custody after getting arrested while allegedly planning to leave the U.S.
A Pakistani man with ties to Iran has been arrested for allegedly plotting to assassinate a US official in retaliation for the killing of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Qassem Soleimani, the Justice Department said Tuesday.
Federal officials identified Asif Raza Merchant, 46, as a Pakistani citizen who has said he has a wife and children in Iran. He traveled frequently to Iran, Syria and Iraq, the Justice Department said and allegedly sought to hire a hitman to assassinate a politician or a US government official in the United States.
Soleimani, who headed the IRGC’s Quds Force, a US-designated terrorist group, was killed in a US drone strike in Baghdad in January 2020. Iranian officials have repeatedly vowed to take “revenge” for the killing.
Court documents do not identify any of the potential targets, but the case was unsealed just weeks after US officials disclosed that a threat on Donald Trump’s life from Iran prompted additional security in the days before a Pennsylvania rally last month in which Trump was injured by a gunman’s bullet.
FBI Director Christopher Wary said the Pakistani national had “close ties to Iran” and that the alleged murder-for-hire plot was “straight out of the Iranian playbook.”
Asif Merchant traveled to New York in April for the purpose of hiring hitmen, even paying a $5,000 advance to two would-be assassins who were actually undercover law enforcement officers.
The instructions prosecutors say he gave to the men he thought he was hiring were for killings to take place in August or September — after he had left the country.
Merchant was arrested on July 12 as he planned to leave the country.
In August 2022, the United States charged a member of the Revolutionary Guards with plotting to assassinate former US National Security Advisor John Bolton. The Justice Department said Shahram Poursafi, who remains at large, had offered to pay an individual in the United States $300,000 to kill Bolton.
Iran has dismissed the claim that it had plotted to kill Bolton as “fiction.”

[IsraelTimes] One person seriously hurt; Pentagon head Austin discusses strike at al-Asad base with Gallant, both agree incident marks ’dangerous escalation’ by Iran
At least five US personnel were maimed in an attack against a military base in Iraq on Monday, US officials told Rooters, as the Middle East braced for a possible new wave of attacks by Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... and its allies following last week’s killing of senior members of terror groups Hamas ..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... and Hezbollah.
Two Katyusha rockets were fired at al Asad airbase in western Iraq, two Iraqi security sources said. One Iraqi security source said the rockets fell inside the base. It was unclear whether the attack was linked to threats by Iran to retaliate over the killing of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh ...became Prime Minister of Gaza after the legislative elections of 2006 which Hamas won. President Mahmoud Abbas dismissed Haniyeh from office on 14 June 2007 at the height of the Fatah-Hamas festivities, but Haniyeh did not acknowledge the decree and continues as the PM of Gazoo while Abbas maintains a separate PM in the West Bank... The US officials, who spoke to Rooters on condition of anonymity, said one of the maimed Americans was maimed. The casualty count was based on initial reports which could still change, they said.
"Base personnel are conducting a post-attack damage assessment," one of the officials added.

From early 2004 until late 2011, Al Asad Air Base was one of the most important air bases used by Coalition Forces during Operation Iraqi Freedom. For most of this time, this base in Al Anbar Province of western Iraq was operated by the U.S. Marine Corps to conduct aerial operations and support ground operations throughout the province. The history of this base, however, dates back to the mid-1980s. During Operation Desert Storm in 1991, Al Asad Air Base was subjected to numerous air attacks, sustaining massive damage.
Al Asad Air Base is located in the central portion of Al Anbar Province, western Iraq, some 12 miles from the city of Baghdadi and the Euphrates River. Baghdad is 120 miles to the east; the Syrian border is about 110 miles to the north-west.
The area in which Al Asad Air Base was constructed had a sporadic history that stretched back to Biblical times. Arab legend purported that Abraham and his family stopped at an oasis here during their journey from Ur to Haran. However, there is no mention of this in either the Bible or the Quran. This area was virtually uninhabited until the 1920s when several Iraqi families settled here and established a village known as Eyen Al Asad or “Spring of the Lion.”
In 1985, Saddam Hussein decided to have an air base constructed in the vicinity of the village of Eyen Al Asad and its oasis. He hired Yugoslavians to construct the base.
The air base was originally named Al Qadisiyah Airbase after the May 636 defeat of the Persians by Arab Muslims at the village of Qadisiyah south of Baghdad. As early as 1990, Qadisiyah was commonly referred to as Al Asad Air Base and that name has been used exclusively since 2003.

Good to know, IS. Thank you — my learning for today. :-)
[NEWARAB] Paleostinian officials said Israeli forces killed eight people in two separate raids in the occupied West Bank on Tuesday, as violence in the occupied territory showed no sign of abating.
Four people were killed in the Jenin area and four in Tubas district when Israeli forces carried out early morning raids, the Paleostinian Red Islamic Thingy and the health ministry in Ramallah said.
The Israeli army reported its aircraft struck "armed terrorist cells" in the Jenin area, but did not give details on casualties.
"Four deaders and three maimed, one of whom is very critical, due to the occupation's shelling of two vehicles in the eastern neighbourhood of Jenin," the Red Islamic Thingy said in a statement.
It later said three more were maimed in Jenin.
The health ministry said: "There are four deaders and seven maimed from occupation gunfire in the town of Aqaba in Tubas district."
The ministry later said three more were maimed in Aqaba.
Aqaba residents said Israeli troops arrived at dawn and surrounded the house of Amid Ghanam leading to festivities between troops and young Paleostinians.
Ghanam and two others were killed in the festivities, while another teenager was killed near a hospital, Tubas governor Ahmed Assad told AFP.
"The army entered and surrounded the house as snipers took positions on nearby rooftops and shot anyone who moved," he said.
The teenager was shot when the troops "entered the area of the hospital," Assad said.
Aqaba mayor Abdel Razzaq Abu Arra said the teenager "was killed in cold blood". "Like a reptile" he added, helpfully.
You think of the most unexpected things, Frank G!
The Israelis report more dead Palestinians… and more raids:
[IsraelTimes] Five killed by airstrikes as IDF says gunmen hit in two sets of strikes in Jenin; four more killed in Aqabah, southeast of city; and another two in Kafr Qud
Israeli forces killed 11 Paleostinian button men, five of them in dronezaps, amid an operation in and around the northern West Bank city of Jenin on Tuesday, the military said.
Paleostinian health officials confirmed that 11 people had been killed, including five in Jenin, four in the Tubas area, and another two in the Jenin suburb of Kafr Qud.
The military said an Israeli Air Force drone hit groups of button men in two separate strikes in Jenin as troops carried out a counterterrorism operation.
According to a military source, the first strike hit two button men on a cycle of violence who were shooting at troops. The second strike targeted another cell that shot up forces.
Separately, Israeli Border Police troops killed four Paleostinian button men and maimed 10 others during an overnight operation. According to police, the incident took place in the West Bank city of Jenin. However,
it was a brave man who first ate an oyster... Paleostinians said they occurred in the town of Aqabah, near Tubas.
According to police, undercover officers operated to arrest wanted Paleostinians, including one suspected of terror activities. Police said the suspected terrorist began to flee as troops surrounded his home, along with another gunman.
The Border Police officers then opened fire, killing the gunman and wounding the wanted man.
Additionally, troops returned fire at button men and other Paleostinians hurling bombs at them, killing three and wounding nine others, according to police. No soldiers were hurt in the operation.
Aqabah residents said Israeli troops arrived at dawn and surrounded the house of a man named Amid Ghanam, leading to the festivities. Ghanam and two others were killed in the festivities, while a teenager was killed near a hospital, said Tubas governor Ahmed Assad.
The teenager was shot when the troops "entered the area of the hospital," Assad said, claiming the teen "was killed in cold blood."
Another two Paleostinians were killed in the town of Kafr Qud, close to Jenin on Tuesday, the PA ministry said. It said Israeli authorities were holding their bodies.
The IDF said that in all, troops and Border Police officers had killed 11 button men in Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s and festivities.
The military said that some had shot up troops, others had hurled bombs, and some were attempting to plant a bomb.
One soldier was moderately maimed amid the fighting, the IDF said.
In the past nine months, the IDF has carried out more than 60 airstrikes in the West Bank, using drones, attack helicopters, and fighter jets.
Since October 7, troops have arrested some 4,400 wanted Paleostinians across the West Bank, including more than 1,850 affiliated with Hamas ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... .
According to the Paleostinian Authority health ministry, more than 590 West Bank Paleostinians have been killed in that time. The IDF says the vast majority of them were button men killed in exchanges of fire, rioters who clashed with troops or faceless myrmidons carrying out attacks.
During the same period, 25 Israelis, including security personnel, have been killed in terror attacks in Israel and the West Bank. Another five members of the security forces were killed in festivities with terror operatives in the West Bank.

[ARABNEWS] Israeli warplanes swooped low over the Lebanese capital Beirut on Tuesday, setting off a series of sonic booms that rattled windows across the city minutes before the head of Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... ’s Hezbollah was set to give an address.
The loud booms sent residents rushing to open their windows to prevent the glass from shattering, or standing on their balconies to get a glimpse of the planes flying over. There was no comment from the Israeli military.
In the capital’s southern suburbs, a Hezbollah stronghold, members and supporters of the Lebanese gang had gathered to watch a televised speech by its leader to mark the one-week anniversary of Israel’s killing of a senior military commander.
As he began, Sayyed ...Arabic term meaning your/his lordship. Groveling in His Exalted Presence is encouraged... His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah ...The satrap of the Medes and the Persians in Leb...> said the sonic booms were intended to provoke those gathered for the memorial.
The strike that killed commander Fuad Shukr was the second time Israel had struck the southern suburbs in 10 months of hostilities between Hezbollah and the Israeli military that are taking place in parallel with 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... war.
Hezbollah earlier on Tuesday said it launched a swarm of attack drones at two military sites near Acre in northern Israel and also attacked an Israeli military vehicle in another location.
The Israeli military said a number of hostile drones were identified crossing from Lebanon and one was intercepted.
Israeli medical officials said seven people were evacuated to hospital, to the south of the coastal city of Nahariya, one at death's door.
The Israeli military said an initial investigation indicated the injuries were caused by an interceptor that "missed the target and hit the ground, injuring several civilians." It said the incident was still under review.
Rooters journalists saw one impact site near a bus stop on a main road outside Nahariya.
The Israeli military said in a statement sirens sounded around Acre, but that turned out to be a false alarm. It said its air force struck two Hezbollah facilities in south Lebanon.
Fears are rising that the Middle East could tip into full-blown war following vows by Hezbollah to avenge Shukr’s killing, and by Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence.

They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... to respond to the liquidation in Tehran last week of the head of Paleostinian Death Eater group Hamas ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... A Hezbollah source told Rooters that "the response to the liquidation of commander Fuad Shukr has not yet come."
Earlier on Tuesday, four Hezbollah fighters were killed in a strike on a home in the Lebanese town of Mayfadoun, nearly 30 km (19 miles) north of the border, medics and a security source said.
Update from the Times of Israel at 1:00 p.m. ET:
Israeli fighter jets struck a building in southern Leb’s Yaroun where several operatives were identified, the IDF says.
According to the IDF, the Hezbollah operatives were spotted by troops of the Golani Brigade’s Reconnaissance Unit and a short while later an Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... was carried out.
Another Hezbollah site in Kafr Kila was also struck, the IDF adds.
