[IRNA] "It is clear that issues related to the geopolitical developments surrounding the Zangezur Corridor are not in the interest of regional countries, and 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... vehemently opposes this matter," Ebrahim Azizi, Chairman of the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the Iranian Parliament, said on Saturday.
He made the comment after Russia expressed its support for Azerbaijan's demand to establish unimpeded access to Nakhchivan by opening the Zangezur Corridor through Armenia. The corridor would connect Azerbaijan's western regions directly to the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic.
The scheme has raised concerns in Iran as it would disrupt the historical transit route between Iran and Europa ...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum... via Armenia.
Azizi suggested that there are underlying motives behind the ''fake corridor'' aimed at diminishing Iran's military and political power in the region.
He pointed out that Supreme Fearless Leader of the Islamic Revolution ...Iran's doddering head theocrat... Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei ...the very aged actual dictator of Iran, successor to Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini...> has made it clear in discussion with both Russian and Ottoman Turkish leaders that Iran is strongly opposed to any geopolitical changes in the Caucasus.
"We have repeatedly communicated through various channels to regional countries that this corridor is a red line for Iran, and any changes or actions regarding it will be met with a serious and firm response from Iran."

The piquant fact here is that Azeris are Shia who told the ayatollahs to go f*ck a chicken.
[GEOTV] The Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf ...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations.... (PTI) on Saturday castigated JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman ...Deobandi holy man, known as Mullah Diesel during the war against the Soviets, his sympathies for the Taliban have never been tempered by honesty. Fazl seldom misses a meal and is now so large he has his own gravitational pull... for 'legitimising' the ruling regime following the latter's major shift in his stance on the coalition government amid parliamentary collaboration with the former ruling party.
"We never needed [Maulana Fazl] support, neither in the past nor today." Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government spokesperson Barrister Muhammad Ali Saif said while speaking on Geo News programme 'Naya Pakistain'.
The PTI leader's statement came as JUI-F chief Maulana Fazl seemingly lowered his rhetoric against the PML-N-led coalition government which he accused of coming to power via "rigged" February 8 general elections.
Speaking in the National Assembly on Wednesday, the JUI-F chief referred to the alleged manipulation in the election results saying whether the present parliament was a product of "Form 45 or 47", they had to accept and use it to address all the national issues.
Fazl also urged both the government and the opposition to confront the challenge of terrorism, saying parliament is the supreme institution.
The religio-political party and the PTI had reached a consensus on cooperation in the National Assembly and the Senate in August.
Both the parties, who have traditionally been arch-rivals, have held multiple interactions since the February 8 polls owing to their mutual concerns regarding alleged election result manipulation and irregularities in the polls.

[IsraelNationalNews] Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the deadly shooting attack in which three Israeli civilians were murdered at the Allenby Crossing during the weekly Cabinet meeting on Sunday.
""This is a difficult day. An abhorrent terrorist murdered three of our citizens in cold blood at the Allenby Bridge. On behalf of the Government and myself, I send condolences to the families of those who were murdered.," Netanyahu said. "We are surrounded by a murderous ideology led by Iran's axis of evil."
"In recent days, abhorrent terrorists murdered six of our hostages and three Israel Police officers in cold blood. The murderers do not differentiate between us. They want to murder us all, right and left, secular and religious, Jews and non-Jews, until the last one," he said.
Netanyahu stated that "what prevents the destruction of our people, as in previous times, is the strength of the State of Israel and the power of the IDF: Our soldiers' spirit of heroism, the police officers, the men and women of our security forces, the supreme sacrifice of our fallen heroes and the stamina of our people — these make all the difference. When we stand together, our enemies cannot overcome us; therefore, their main objective is to divide us and to sow discord among us."
The Prime Minister then spoke of Hamas' psychological warfare strategy against Israel. "Last weekend, the German newspaper Bild published an official Hamas document that revealed its action plan: To sow discord among us, to use psychological warfare on the hostages' families, to apply internal and external political pressure on the Government of Israel, to tear us part from within, and to continue the war until further notice, until Israel is defeated."
"The great majority of Israel's citizens are not falling into this Hamas trap. They know that we are fully committed to achieving the objectives of the war: To eliminate Hamas, to return all of our hostages, to ensure that Gaza never again constitutes a threat to Israel and to return our residents in the north and south securely to their homes," he said. "We will stand together. We will wield the sword of David together and with G-d's help, we will win."
"One more word. There are those who ask — 'Shall the sword devour forever?' . In the Middle East, without the sword, there is no 'forever'."." Netanyahu concluded
[IsraelTimes] Jordanian terrorist drives truck from Jordan, opens fire at Allenby Bridge workers and then is shot dead; IDF rules out vehicle was rigged with explosives
Three Israeli men were killed in a terrorist shooting attack at the Allenby Bridge Crossing between Jordan and the West Bank on Sunday morning, authorities said.
The attack was carried out by a Jordanian truck driver who had arrived from Jordan. The crossing, also known as the King Hussein Bridge, is the West Bank’s sole crossing with Jordan.
The three victims were named Yohanan Shchori, 61, a father of six from the West Bank settlement of Ma’ale Efraim, Yuri Birnbaum, 65, from the settlement of Na’ama, and Adrian Marcelo Podzamczer, from the settlement city of Ariel.
According to the military and Israel Airports Authority officials — the latter of which manages the land crossing — the gunman got out of the truck he was driving during an inspection at the terminal and shot up several of the crossing’s workers, killing three.
IAA security guards returned fire at the terrorist, killing him.
He was identified by Israeli security sources as Maher Dhiab Hussein al-Jazi, 39, a Jordanian national from the southern Jordan town of Udhruh, east of Petra.
The Magen David Adom ambulance service said its medics treated the three men at the scene, but were forced to declare their deaths.
The Israel Defense Forces described the shooting as a terror attack. It published an image of the handgun used by the terrorist.
IDF sappers dispatched to the scene later ruled out suspicions that the truck in which a terrorist arrived had been rigged with explosives, the military said.
Terror groups Hamas ..one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede,... and Paleostinian Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... both welcomed the attack.
Hamas hailed the attacker as "one of Jordan’s brave men."
In a statement, it said that the attack was a "natural response to the holocaust carried out by the Nazi Zionist enemy against our people 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 the occupied West Bank, and its plans for the Judaization of the Al Aqsa mosque."
On its Telegram channel, the PIJ described the attacker as a "hero" and said the assault is an "expression of the sentiments of the Jordanian people and the Arab and Moslem peoples towards the brutal massacres committed by the enemy."
"This heroic attack and similar ones are the only response that the American administration understands," the statement added, accusing the United States of being an "accomplice" to Israel.
Israeli and Jordanian authorities both announced that the crossing had been closed until further notice following the deadly shooting attack.
The Jordanian interior ministry also said that authorities had begun an investigation into the attack.
The IAA said that in addition to the closure of Allenby Bridge, the other land crossings with Jordan — the Rabin Crossing near Eilat and the Jordan River Crossing near Beit She’an — were closed at the request of security authorities.
Israel and Jordan signed a peace treaty in 1994 and have close security ties. Dozens of trailers cross daily from Jordan, with goods from Jordan and the Gulf that supply both the West Bank and Israeli markets.
Paleostinians can only use the Allenby Bridge Crossing to enter Jordan from the West Bank, while Israelis generally use the Rabin and Jordan River crossings.
[IsraelTimes] Aviva Siegel, released in November deal, tells WSJ she refused to tidy her hair when captors gave her a brush and hair clip, was made to repeat lines she forgot
[GEOTV] German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said on Friday that a military approach alone was not the solution to Israel's war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
It took all-out war to drive out the Nazis, but that’s different somehow.
"The past weekend has dramatically demonstrated that a purely military approach is no solution to the situation in Gaza," she told reporters after meeting with her Israeli counterpart Israel Katz in the coastal Israeli city of Tel Aviv. That's what they always said about the Tamil Tigers, too. Anybody remember them?
Everybody is full of advice for those stupid juices:
One is forced to note that Hamas is not asked to sacrifice anything…
[IsraelTimes] As new proposal being finalized, spymasters issue unprecedented joint plea for ceasefire to end Gaza civilians’ ‘appalling loss of life’ and hostages’ ‘hellish confinement’.
CIA director says more detailed Gaza ceasefire proposal due in days
[GEOTV] CIA Director William Burns, the chief US negotiator trying to help secure a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of hostages by Hamas, said a more detailed proposal on the ceasefire would be made in the coming days.
"We will make this more detailed proposal, I hope in the next several days, and then we'll see," Burns said at an FT event in London on Saturday.
