CAIRO (Reuters) - The head of Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood and other leaders of the banned group were sentenced to life in prison on Sunday, judicial sources said, on charges of incitement to murder and violence during protests five years ago.
The sentence is the latest among several trials and re-trials against Mohamed Badie and other senior leaders of the party that ruled Egypt before the military ousted Islamist President Mohamed Mursi following mass protests.
The sources told Reuters that Giza Criminal Court sentenced several top leaders including Badie, group spokesman Essam al-Erian, and senior member Mohamed El-Beltagy to life terms.
State news agency MENA said another defendant was jailed for 15 years and three others for 10 years.
Badie and the other defendants were convicted of incitement to violence on July 15, 2013, including the killing of five demonstrators and wounding of 100 during protests in an area in Giza known as al-Bahr al-Azim.

[Ynet] A man was arrested after a car collided with security barriers outside London's parliament building and a number of pedestrians were injured, police said on Tuesday. Regards from Chen Keinan, EUropeans
Update at 7:25a.m. EDT: The Ynet article was updated from the Reuters feed at 13:24 Israel time, and has video of the miscreant’s arrest as he calmly left the vehicle. He appears to me to be a sub-Saharan African. The Telegraph has more photos and is liveblogging events Their latest post is time stamped 11:54 a.m.:
Police 'don't believe suspect is known to counter-terror officers or MI5'
Neil Basu, Assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police and counter-terrorism head, is giving an update outside New Scotland Yard. He has said:
One woman is being treated for serious but not life-threatening injuries. Another person has been discharged
The arrested man is in his late 20s
"Given that this appears to be a deliberate act, the method and the iconic site... this is being treated as a terrorist attack"
No other suspects have been identified and there is “no intelligence at this time of further danger” to Londoners or the rest of the UK connected to this incident
The vehicle is vehicle is being searched. No weapons have been found
Police are seeking to identify the suspect and "his motivation if possible"
Mr Basu added that the suspect was not co-operating with police and had not yet been formally identified
But on the basis of the information known so far, "we don't believe this person is known to either MI5 or counter terrorism police," he added.
Update from the Daily Mail at 7:10 p.m EDT: Driver named as Salih Khater, a resident of Birmingham from Sudan with British citizenship, known to the local police but not to MI5 or Scotland Yard.

[Breitbart UK] A gang of masked "youths" rampaged through Sweden’s second-largest city Monday night, setting cars ablaze in an attack described as "extremely organised" and like a military operation by the Prime Minister.
Shocking video of fire engulfing numerous vehicles in Gothenburg spread on social media Monday evening with other footage clearly showing masked people in dark clothing intentionally lighting the blazes.
Police chose not to arrest the "young people" at the scene and have since contacted their parents, reports state.
Officers said Tuesday that up to 100 cars had been either burnt to or vandalized in the city and in nearby towns such as Trollhattan, an industrial area with high unemployment, and Falkenberg.
Falkenberg contains gender-segregated asylum seeker homes and police have been repeatedly attacked en mass in nearby Trollhattan, with well knows Islamic State fighters hailing from the area.
Such areas, with large migrant populations, have become hotspots for violence in the Nordic nation in recent years with many described as "no-go zones."

If the Prime Minister can't figure it out, I would say that they are rioting, burning cars, creating disorder, destroying their neighborhood, and beginning to destroy Sweden.
Is that clear enough?

One witness, who asked to be named only as Robert, told The Local he had seen a group of half a dozen people torch cars in the car park outside his home in Frölunda. His wife called the emergency services.
"We were very surprised. This area is usually very calm. Nothing like this has ever happened before. Six months ago it happened on the other side of the square. We've been living here for eight years," he said.
"We know from experience that these kinds of fires more often happen the week before schools start than other weeks," police spokesperson Ulla Brehm told the Swedish news agency TT.
I suspect this is the action of “migrant” yoots rather than natives, hinted at by Skidmark’s BBC article comparing this round of car-b-ques with the Moslem colonist riots of 2013:
There is no clear motive for the widespread destruction, but the arson echoes the damage done during riots in Stockholm over several nights in May 2013.
They followed the death of an elderly man who threatened police - vehicles were set alight in poor immigrant neighbourhoods, also by masked youths.
The 2013 riots sparked a debate about immigration in some circles, and unemployment and the widening gap between rich and poor in others.
Sweden is firmly in election season ahead of September's polls, and immigration remains a key issue.

Dozens of vehicles burned in Sweden's four major cities - Stockholm, Malmo, Gothenburg and Uppsala - on Monday evening and in the early hours of Tuesday.
Systematically setting cars on fire has become a associated with gang violence in suburbs in Sweden's major cities.
I think there is now enough evidence, veiled though it might be, to move this to P.1: WoT and tag it Moslem colonists.

[IsraelTimes] Three shipping containers impounded by IDF at port over fears they'd be used as airborne incendiary devices
In the past several weeks, Israel has prevented tens of thousands of balloons from being shipped to Gazoo, out of concern they would be used to launch incendiary devices into Israel, according to a television report on Sunday.
Three shipping containers destined for the coastal enclave and carrying tens of thousands of balloons were stopped at the Ashdod port and confiscated, Channel 10 reported.
Southern Israel has experienced hundreds of fires as a result of incendiary kites and balloons flown over the border from Gazoo in recent months. Over 7,000 acres of land have been burned, causing millions of shekels in damage, according to Israeli officials.
Despite an apparent truce with the Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth", terrorist group since Thursday, incendiary kites and balloons from Gazoo have continued to plague Israeli border communities, with a large incendiary kite landing on power lines near Kibbutz Sufa on Friday, causing blackouts in surrounding homes.
On Sunday, the Ynet news site published a video, filmed by one of the residents of Sha’ar Hanegev Regional Council, of an incendiary device attached to an inflated condom which had been launched from Gazoo. The balloon carried flammable material attached to a time delay fuse. Only after it landed did the device burst into flames.
In this case, the fire was extinguished quickly and caused no damage.
A front man for the Israeli Fire and Rescue Services said that Sunday marked the first day in several months that no fires were caused by incendiary balloons flown from Gazoo toward Israeli communities bordering the coastal enclave. However, a lie repeated often enough remains a lie... he later said it appeared that at least one fire was started by the the arson devices.
Earlier on Sunday, the top-level security cabinet met to discuss the ongoing Gazoo Strip violence and the military options available, hours after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made it clear that Israel wants a full ceasefire and nothing less.
Gazoo’s Hamas rulers claim an Egyptian and UN-brokered ceasefire came into effect at the end of last week, though senior Israel officials maintain the country has not agreed to to it. Hamas, a terror group which seeks to destroy Israel, claims the deal was mediated by Egypt and other regional players.
Senior Israeli officials have said that "quiet will be met by quiet," implying that the country is not seeking an escalation of violence, but has not openly committed to an end to hostilities. Instead, military officials hope the terror group has internalized the damage Israel can cause to its infrastructure.
[IsraelTimes] Since Monday morning, firefighters have worked to extinguish a blaze caused by an incendiary balloon across that fell near the community of Re’im adjacent to the central Gazoo Strip, a front man for the Israel Fire and Rescue Services says.
[Xinhua] Philippines security forces gunned down two terrorists allegedly carrying an improvised explosive device in North Cotabato on August 8. Milatary spokesman Arvin Encinas said the two bomb couriers aboard a motorcycle attempted to transport the IED but were flagged down at a military checkpoint for inspection.
He said in a statement, "When the troops approached to check them, they attempted to flee and one suspect drew a firearm and shot the troops."
Encinas said this prompted the troops to return fire, killing the two people on the spot. He added that troops found a pistol and an IED inside a paper bag from these two people, who were believed to be members of the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters.
"The bomb couriers are trying to plot a bomb terror attack in the province of North Cotabato.It would have resulted in casualties had we not prevented (these people)," the military spokesman added.
[Bangkok Post] A volunteer ranger was gunned down in an ambush at a roadside pavilion opposite a military outpost in Pattani province on Saturday morning.
The attack occurred shortly after Phumsak Yenthua crossed Highway 42 in Panare district, opposite the ranger outpost where he worked, to the pavilion. As he was about to turn off the lights in the pavilion, assailants waiting in ambush in a nearby forest fired shots at him,
The sound of gunshots caused other rangers to rush to the scene, where they found Phumsak seriously injured. He was rushed to the hospital but died shortly later. Police found 25 spent M16 cartridges scattered at the scene of the attack and a bullet in the roadside forest, where the assailants had been hidden, about 50 meters from the pavilion.
Around the same time, a suspicious object was found in Thung Yang Daeng district of Pattani. Bomb disposal officers were called in to examine the object, which turned out to be a bomb. It was destroyed.

So far he has been killed at least four times, though not yet by a stake through the heart... is believed to be "clinically dead" after an Iraqi Arclight airstrike targeted him during a meeting with a host of IS leaders in Syria last June, a security source was quoted as saying.
"Iraqi warplanes launched an airstrike inside the Syrian territories in June, targeting a meeting of Islamic State leaders, where the group’s chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was present," the source told AlSumaria News on Monday.
According to the source, the airstrike left al-Baghdadi mortally maimed and incapable of assuming his duties, prompting the group’s leaders to nominate Abu Othman al-Tunisi to succeed him.
The nomination of al-Tunisi, however, has caused severe disputes within the group.
"The strike also left a large number of Islamic State commanders dead and maimed," added the source.
Al-Baghdadi has been reported killed or maimed on a number of occasions.
No reports about al-Baghdadi have been heard since September 2017, when he urged supporters to wage attacks against the West and keep fighting in Syria and neighboring Iraq.
Al-Baghdadi emerged as leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq, one of the groups that later became Islamic State, in 2010. In October 2011, the US officially designated al-Baghdadi as a terrorist. It has offered a reward of up to $25m (£19.6m) for information leading to his capture or death.

[ARABNEWS] The US Department of State designated Iran-based Qassim Abdullah Ali Ahmed as a global terrorist on Monday, according to a statement.
Also known as Qassim al-Muamen, Ahmed is a leader of the al-Ashtar Brigade (AAB), a group which the US has labelled a "Foreign Terrorist Organization."
As part of Executive Order 13224, Ahmed has been highlighted as posing a "significant risk of committing acts of terrorism."
The designation from the US Department of State seeks to deny Ahmed "resources to plan and carry out terrorist attacks."
Under the sanctions, Ahmed’s property and interests subject to US jurisdiction are blocked, and American citizens are prohibited from engaging in any transactions with him.
The AAB seeks to overthrow the Bahraini government, and Ahmed has previously recruited gunnies in Bahrain, trained AAB members how to use weaponry and explosives as well as funded AAB members to carry out attacks.
In November 2017, Bahraini authorities identified Ahmed as being involved in an AAB plot to assassinate prominent figures in Bahrain and target three oil pipelines.
