Rangzieb Ahmed - who planned carnage in the UK - has been told he will face a Parole Board next month.
If successful, the convicted terror chief, once said to be Osama bin Laden’s top European operative, will be free to roam the streets again. https://t.co/2bEs9TIDAr

Seems that 'democracies' can't find the will to fire its employees. However, it can basically throw out the protection and safeguards for its citizens when it feels like it. This is the 'democracy' that Nancy and Brandon claim others want to destroy.

Some key points lost on many American readers, the unspoken aspect is that the girls were disproportionately white and the "Asian" perpetrators were overwhelmingly Muslim, Pakistani immigrants.
Get that context and the fear of "racism", "Islamaphobia", and "racial unrest" by management
adds a more complex aspect to apparent corruption.

[KavkazUzel] The prosecutor asked the court to sentence Punhan Karimli, an activist of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan,
...as far as I can tell, a center-right Azerbaijani nationalist political party — not the kind of group that produces dangerous radicals...
to seven and a half years in prison on charges of drug trafficking. The defense stated that there was no reliable evidence of Karimli's guilt and asked the court to acquit him.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that PFPA activist Punhan Karimli, who was deported to Azerbaijan from Germany in November 2021, was placed in custody on charges of drug trafficking. Karimli is being persecuted for political reasons, his brother and fellow party member are sure.
Judge Samir Aliyev announced the completion of the judicial investigation at the Baku Grave Crimes Court today, Karimli's lawyer Javad Javadov told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent. According to him, the last word was given to the public prosecutor, and the prosecutor proposed to sentence Karimli to 7 years and 6 months in prison.
After the public prosecutor, lawyer Javadov made a closing speech. "We have stated the position of the defense, which is that the accusation against Punkhan Karimli is unfounded and is not based on reliable evidence. The first confessions were obtained under torture, and after participating in interrogations of a lawyer attracted by the activist's family, he retracted these testimonies. Others there is no evidence against Karimli, apart from the evidence of the police itself," he said.
The reason for the criminal prosecution of Karimli was his opposition political activities, the lawyer is sure. "He is one of four activists expelled from Germany who were arrested on the same charges - drug trafficking. This is an indicator of systemic repression against activists who continued to engage in political activities and criticize the Azerbaijani government in Germany," Javadov said.
Activist Jafar Mirzoyev, who was returned to Azerbaijan from Germany on November 24, 2021 on readmission, was arrested on January 28 on charges of drug trafficking on a large scale. Mirzoev is being persecuted for political reasons, his brother is sure. In the fall of 2021, activists Malik Rzayev and Mutallim Orujov, deported from Germany, were arrested .
The defense asked to acquit Karimli, the lawyer said. "Pyunkhan Karimli himself was also ready to speak. However, the court did not give him the floor. Due to the fact that the judiciary is going on summer vacation, the next meeting is scheduled for July 27," he said.
Karimli's father, Vahid Karimov, also declared that the accusation was untenable. “My son was detained when he was leaving the tax department, and drugs were allegedly found on him. What reasonable person would believe this? Who would go to a sensitive government agency with drugs in their pockets… We were initially told by the police that a weapon had been found on Pyunkhan. But then the weapon "evaporated" and turned into drugs. All this is nonsense. My son is being persecuted because of his political activities, his membership in the Popular Front Party, his participation in rallies in Azerbaijan and Germany," Kerimov told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
Representatives of the prosecution were not available for comment.
The Baku Grave Crimes Court confirmed the information about the meeting and speeches of the prosecutor and the lawyer.
The "Caucasian Knot" also wrote that on May 31, relatives of the activists expelled from Germany held a rally in front of the German embassy in Baku. They called on the German government not to remain indifferent to the fate of those who were deported to Azerbaijan and subsequently arrested. The police pushed the protesters away from the diplomatic mission building.
[IsraelTimes] It is unclear who was behind hack of Strava app, which revealed info despite privacy settings; one individual tracked to site linked to Israel’s nuke program
A loophole in a popular fitness app was recently exploited by unknown individuals to track members of Israeli security forces as they moved around the country’s military bases and even traveled abroad, an online investigation group revealed Tuesday.
According to the investigation, the unknown individuals used a GPS-based feature in the Strava app to create shareable running routes at Israeli army bases and security sites. When these were then utilized by security personnel for exercise, the app exposed their private location-tracking information to the route’s creator, even if they had their security settings at the highest level.

[IsraelTimes] Sources tell Rooters that talks underway to mend relationship; Syria shuttered Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, offices in 2012 after terror group backed violent mostly peaceful opposition against President Assad
A decade after breaking with Syrian Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad Lord of the Baath... and decamping from Damascus, Hamas is in talks to resume ties with Syria, according to members of the terror group Tuesday.
Hamas and Syria have been on the outs since early 2012, when the group’s leadership came out against Assad’s brutal crackdown on the uprising that would turn into the Syrian civil war. Syria shuttered Hamas offices in Damascus months later, at the time officially closing the book on the relationship.
An anonymous official from the terror group said that Hamas and Syria were now engaged in "high-profile meetings," toward reconciliation, Rooters reported.
Syrian officials did not answer Rooters’ request for comment.
Hamas, an gang sworn to Israel’s destruction, moved its headquarters to Syria in the late 1990s.
Since leaving Damascus, Hamas’ leadership has been based mainly in Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... , Egypt and 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 Hamaswith 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.
Hamas’ opposition to the Syrian government at the beginning of its civil war also angered their mutual ally Iran, which reportedly ceased funding the group, a claim denied in 2016 by the Islamic Theocratic Republic.
By 2017, relations between Hamas and Iran ...The nation is 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... were hailed as "fantastic" by Gaza’s ruler Yahya Sinwar.
Israel and Hamas have fought several wars since the terror group seized control over the Gaza Strip in 2007.
Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas set up a joint operation center in Beirut during last year’s 11-day conflict with Israel, according to Ibrahim al-Amine, editor of the pro-Hezbollah Lebanese daily al-Akhbar.
Hamas, an Islamic fundamentalist terror organization was founded in 1987 at the beginning of the First Intifada as an offshoot of Egypt’s Moslem Brüderbund. The group has repeatedly called for Israel’s destruction and has been responsible for dozens of deadly terror attacks.
The rupture that followed saw Hamas abandon its headquarters in the Syrian capital, where the group's former chief Khaled Meshal had lived for many years.
Top Hamas officials subsequently relocated to Doha and Istanbul.
Hamas has voiced anger over a recent diplomatic rapprochement between Turkey and Israel.
Meanwhile, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh arrived in Beirut on Tuesday, for meetings aimed at "strengthening cooperation and fraternity between the Palestinian and the Lebanese people", a Hamas statement said.
There was no immediate indication that Haniyeh's visit to was tied to the Syrian outreach.
