[ToloNews] The plan will include merging 10,000 local coppers with local army forces and others with the ANP. The government has started implementing a plan to merge the Afghan Local Police with Afghan Local Army and the Afghan National Police, officials said on Friday.
According to Interior Affairs Ministry, of 24,000 local police force members, 10,000 will be merged with the local army and 10,000 with the Afghan National Police. The remaining will be sent to retirement, the ministry said.
"The local police forces will be merged with local army in their own areas," a Defense Ministry front man Fawad Aman said. "First, they should qualify for serving in the ranks of local army and then they will pursue army’s training."
Analysts said the implementation of the plan under current circumstances will face some obstacles.
"Evacuation from any area will benefit the Taliban ...the Pashtun equivalent of men... ," said Massoud Raghib, a military affairs analyst, referring to the plan for merging local police with local army.
"The local forces are the most effective forces... So far, they have been fighting against the enemy with courage and high morale," said Abdul Zahir Tamim, an MP.
Recently, the Afghan government separated the Public Protection Forces, Border Security Forces and Traffic Police from the structure of the Ministry of Interior Affairs.
[IsraelTimes] Deputy head of state Gen. Mohammad Hamdan Daglo suggests relations will stop short of full normalization, indicates split with civilian leaders.
A senior Sudanese leader said Friday that his country would likely soon establish ties of some nature with Jerusalem, saying that Khartoum needed Israel and would benefit from relations.
"Israel is developed. The entire world works with Israel. For development, for agriculture — we need Israel," Sudanese deputy head of state Gen. Mohammad Hamdan Daglo, known popularly as Hemedti, told Sudan24 TV in Juba.
However, we can't all be heroes. Somebody has to sit on the curb and applaud when they go by... Daglo said the ties would fall short of full normalization, out of solidarity with the Paleostinians.
"We’re not scared of anyone. But these will be relations, not normalization. Relations, not normalization. Okay? We’re following this line," Daglo said, without giving a timeframe or specifying what, exactly, the difference between relations and normalization would be.
Daglo’s remarks come against the background of a United States-led efforts to pressure Sudan into normalizing ties with Israel in exchange for a commitment of financial aid and its removal from a US blacklist of state sponsors of terror; its position on the blacklist subjects it to crippling economic sanctions.

[AnNahar] U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper signed a 10-year military cooperation deal with Tunis Wednesday during his first stop on a regional tour, hailing U.S.-Tunisia collaboration over the conflict in neighboring Libya.
The past decade has seen growing cooperation between the Pentagon and Tunisia, particularly on counter-terror training and securing the North African country's long border with Libya, where jihadist groups operate and world powers back rival sides in a complex war.
"We look forward to expanding this relationship to help Tunisia protect its maritime ports and land borders, deter terrorism and keep the corrosive efforts of autocratic regimes out of your country," Esper said in a speech after meeting President Kais Saied.

[Jpost] A large contingent of protestors turned out on Saturday in the northern German city of Hamburg to urge the municipal authorities to shut down the Iranian regime-controlled Islamic Center and Blue Mosque.
According to Northern German Broadcasting, roughly 150 demonstrators called on the city government to end its contract with the Islamic Center of Hamburg and close the controversial institution, which is controlled by Supreme Leader of the Islamic Theocratic Republic of 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... Ali Khamenei ...the very aged actual dictator of Iran, successor to Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini... Local Green Party politician Gudrun Schittek spoke at the rally, saying: "This is not a normal mosque here: It is the propaganda headquarters of the regime in Tehran and we have to protest against this mullah regime. We have to protest against the fact that the Islamic Center Hamburg, as part of the Shura, is a member and contractual partner in state agreements with the city of Hamburg that should not be allowed — and we have to clearly define ourselves as a democracy."
The media outlet posted a picture of the demonstrators, one of whom held a drawing of recently executed Iranian champion wrestler Navid Afkari.
Three weeks ago, Iran’s regime, according to human rights ...not to be confused with individual rights, mind you... organizations and sports associations, executed the Greco-Roman wrestler because he protested against regime corruption in 2018.
Hamburg’s social democratic government negotiated a 2012 agreement with Moslem organizations that pledged common values and peaceful activities and tolerance. The contract says the Islamic Center agreed to "international understanding and tolerance toward other cultures, religions and world views."
However, Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried... the Center promotes Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) activities against Israel. Religious leaders and activists from the center have participated in the annual al-Quds Day event in Berlin that calls for the obliteration of Israel.

You know, maybe if people would quit attacking them for merely existing, they wouldn't feel the need to take land away from them. I'm okay with Israel taking the entire middle east.
[THEBAGHDADPOST] Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein held a phone call with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday to discuss bilateral ties as well as Washington’s decision to withdraw its embassy from Baghdad.
In a blurb, Hussein expressed concern about the pullout of the embassy decision saying that despite being a sovereign decision on the US side, it may lead to results that are not in the interest of the Iraqi people."
Precisely. If you want to be treated like a great big grownup country, you have to act like a great big grownup country. Instead you’ve been acting like a spoilt brat, and Secretary Pompeo no longer sees the point of dealing with your nonsense.
Hussein also confirmed that the "Iraqi government has taken a number of security, organizational, political, and diplomatic measures to stop the attacks on the Green Zone and the airport, and there will be tangible positive results in the near future," it added.
Earlier this week, several US and Iraqi officials revealed that Washington was preparing to withdraw its diplomatic mission from its embassy in Baghdad due to the growing attacks by the pro-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... militias.
Consequently, Iraqi officials warned that a US withdrawal could lead other members of the Global Coalition to take similar measures, which would ultimately harm the efforts to defeat ISIS.
We’ve defeated them for you twice, once when they were Al Qaeda in Iraq, and the second time under the current name. Clearly it isn’t that difficult, especially since we’ve been training you in the skills needed to accomplish it since we overthrew Saddam Hussein for you in 2003.
According to the blurb, Hussein and Pompeo discussed various future possibilities for the status of diplomatic missions in Baghdad, adding that Pompeo promised to take what was discussed into consideration.
Until now Hezbollah has refused to permit the government to negotiate with the Jewish entity. The situation must have drastically changed if they are now being quiet.

[NPASYRIA] Mustafa Sejri, a leader in the Ottoman Turkish-backed armed opposition, said on Friday, that Russia intends to launch a military operation soon on the Idlib region, northwestern Syria, in order to pressure The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...Qatar's satrapy in Asia Minor... Sejri posted on his Facebook account that "we are increasing our military readiness in the areas held by the opposition groups in preparation for repelling any possible Russian aggression against the region."
Sejri’s statements coincided with the statements of Ottoman Turkish President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important... , who previously said that Russia’s plans "in Syria will not succeed, as all places that pose a threat to our country are areas of operations for us."
He pointed out that his country will do its best to reach a permanent solution in Syria that preserves the integrity and unity of Syria and the security of its borders.
Commenting on the statements, a source close to the opposition groups in the north called Abu Obada Idlibi told North Press that the orders to increase readiness during this period include only the Idlib groups.
Idlibi said, "In the current situation, Russia will launch a battle from the mountains of the coast and the hills of Kabina in Latakia countryside."
Russia has recently intensified its statements, stressing that Turkey must separate the moderate opposition from turbans in addition to securing the M4 Aleppo-Latakia Highway, according to the March 5th agreement.
According to observers, there is an increasing fear of Russian military pressure on Turkey throughout Idlib in light of its military support for Azerbaijan against Russian-backed Armenia.
Mustafa Agaoglu, a Ottoman Turkish political analyst, believes that it is too early to speculate on Russian intentions, and Russia will not clash with Turkey, especially since "Syria is a small detail to Russia."
Agaoglu said, "Russia is trying hard to get the gun back in the hands of the Syrian state, and it has been working within this strategy for a long time."

[NPASYRIA] Social Justice Council of North and East Syria member Khaled Ali said that the trial of some ISIS members in northeastern Syria "does not negate the demand for the establishment of an international court in the region."
In an exclusive statement to North Press on Saturday, Ali said that 900 ISIS members of Syrian nationality have been tried since the beginning of this year.
ISIS members of Syrian nationality are being tried in two courts in northeastern Syria, one in Qamishli and the other in Kobani.
These two courts, referred to as Terrorism Court, are directly tied to the Justice Council of North and East Syria, according to Ali.
Ali added that the laws applied in the trial are those included in Decree No. 20 that was issued by the Legislative Council of North and East Syria.
The decree includes penal laws to punish the perpetrators of terror crimes.
Ali indicated that Syrian law is referred to when there is no legal article stipulating a punishment for an offense committed in the above decree.
There are thousands of ISIS fighters in the prisons of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), and the prisons contain detainees from more than 60 nationalities, according to the data of the Autonomous Administration.
The SDF calls for the establishment of prisons with good infrastructure that allow better protection for hundreds of ISIS members.
On March 27, the Combined Joint Task Force — Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTF-OIR) of the U.S. — led Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS said that it delivered riot gear equipment to local Internal Security Forces in northeastern Syria to confront riots that may occur and protect detention centers in the region.
The Sina’a prison in the city of Hasakah, one of the prisons that contains thousands of ISIS detainees, witnessed several unsuccessful escape attempts and jailbreaks.

[PJ] In case you haven’t noticed, racially charged political movements are invading every area of American life. High school football games are no exception. Parents attending a football game at Lakewood High School in suburban Cleveland, Ohio, were outraged when someone took to the public address system before the game to declare that the school would henceforth be an "agent of change" in combatting "systemic" racism in "society as a whole."
"All of the visiting parents were completely caught off guard," popular Cleveland radio host Bob Frantz, whose son was playing in the game, told PJ Media. "We were standing respectfully for the playing of the Lakewood alma mater, and when it ended they began a new song," which turned out to be "Lift Every Voice and Sing." Also known as the "black national anthem," the song is featured before NFL stadiums as a part of the BLM movement.
"Then, when [the announcer] began telling everyone how horribly racist American society is, we were livid," said Frantz, who hosts "Frantz Authority" on Salem affiliate 1420 The ANSWER. "Most of us sat down immediately, and the three dads near me, all of whom were police officers, were visibly angry. One said he would have walked out if it wasn’t his son’s senior season."
As the marching band played the black national anthem, the announcement continued over the public address system: "Let us pause and reflect on the inequality that our nation has faced since its beginning."
"The deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Tamir Rice among others remind us of the systemic racism that persists across so many of our nation’s institutions and society as a whole," the speech continued. "By acknowledging, discussing, and taking action to address these inequalities, Lakewood City Schools aims to be an agent of change, not only in our community but in the world. We must all take a stand against racism. Let this be the moment when our children someday look back and say, ’This is when we stood together for change.'"

Anyone care to point out all the ways the Marxist controlled BLM matches the following definition?
Because I have already made up my mind that the Marxist controlled BLM are practicing a form of Superiority, above the law and Anti-White, Anti-Asian, Anti-LGBT Racism.
Racism definition is - 1.) a belief that race is a fundamental determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race. 2.) Display behavior or attitudes that reflect and foster this belief 3.) Racial discrimination or prejudice. 4.) A belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human racial groups determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to dominate others.

A far-left violent Marxist revolutionary movement, with all the hallmarks of same:
Militant cadres swimming with the fish, striking repeatedly against the state via targeted assassinations of police around the country
Targeted efforts to create soviet-style rival sovereigns in a select few areas of opportunity (Seattle, Portland, New York)
Successful campaigns to subvert prosecution of criminals and create lawless zones in major cities (SF, NY, Chicago, Philly, St Louis, etc) through a Red Oligarch's massive funding of radical Marxist DA candidates' electoral campaigns
Relentless agitprop, disinformation and indoctrination campaigns ("1619," "Hands Up," "white supremacy" everywhere, etc) waged nonstop through co-opted media outlets
Vicious attacks on American cultural institutions including those that uphold and promote our history and our heritage as well as Christianity and the traditional family
Sophisticated funding methods including overlapping dark money operations and shadowy 501(c)3 organizations
Efforts to, if not seize the commanding heights of the economy then to coerce the nation's billionaires and oligarchs to kowtow and pay up tens of millions in emotional ransom, some of which monies can then be recycled into funds for organizing, recruiting and equipping cadres with materiel and logistical support
All in all, a wee bit more than an "idea." It's an insurrection that demands to be put down with every means at our disposal.

The polls use samples that are ridiculously unlike the real electorate: heavily weighted toward Dems, even though the Relubs have registered many times more new voters this cycle - probably 20x or more - as Dems have.
Add the fact that most Trump voters will never tell any stranger their real preference and you get polling samples that routinely overstate the % of actual Democrat voters by an absurd margin.
And then there's the enthusiasm gap. No way Biden gets anywhere close to Hillary's share of the black or Hispanic vote, without which he cannot win Florida Pennsylvania or Ohio
