[FoxNews] Americans traveling abroad are being urged to exercise caution worldwide, the State Department said Friday.
The agency issued a security alert because of the "potential for terrorist attacks, demonstrations, or violent actions against U.S. citizens and interests."
"The Department of State is aware of the increased potential for foreign terrorist organization-inspired violence against LGBTQI+ persons and events and advises U.S. citizens overseas to exercise increased caution," the alert states.

[KavkazUzel] The case against Abdulmumin Gazhdiev,
…a typo, intended to be Abdulmumin Gadzhiev, also spelt Abdulmumin Hajiyev, he’s the editor of the Chernovik newspaper. Along with Abubakar Rizvanov, head of the Ansar charity fund and Kemal Tambiev he was convicted of financing terrorism — collecting 68 million rubles and 200 thousand dollars for ISIS under the pretext of building mosques and helping poor Muslims. Israil Akhmednabiev (Abu Umar Sasitlinsky), a Dagestan preacher and founder of the Mukhadzhirun Islamic Foundation, had suggested they join forces for the work...
Abubakar Rizvanov and Kemal Tambiev is politically motivated, human rights activists said. They recognized Rizvanov and Tambiev as political prisoners, demanding that the criminal prosecution of those convicted on charges of financing terrorism be stopped and that they be released, as well as an investigation into the torture of Kemal Tambiev.
As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, one of the three judges who passed sentence in the case of "Chernovik" journalist Abdulmumin Gadzhiev, head of the "Ansar" foundation Abubakar Rizvanov and businessman Kemal Tambiev, Rizvan Zubairov, in his dissenting opinion criticized the grounds for the guilty verdict and, in fact, acquitted the journalist. Gadzhiev’s relatives expressed hope that the appellate court would take into account the defense’s arguments and the judge’s dissenting opinion.

[IsraelTimes] No details given for move affecting September UEFA Nations League game; Asian soccer federation backs Palestinian proposal to suspend Israel from FIFA over Gaza war.
Ticket sales for a Belgium-Israel soccer match in Brussels as part of the UEFA Nations League have been paused because of security concerns.
No details were available over what concerns led officials to stop selling tickets for the game, scheduled for September 6 at King Baudouin Stadium.
"The Royal Belgian Football Union is in constant contact with the security services, the city of Brussels and the federal government," the Belgian soccer body said in a statement on Thursday. "The security situation is being analyzed and developments are being closely monitored."
"Safety comes first, always," Belgian soccer chief Piet Vandendriessche said.
Ticket sales for other Belgium home matches against La Belle France on October 14 and Italia on November 14 are going ahead as planned.
Hundreds of anti-Israel and pro-Paleostinian demonstrators have repeatedly taken to the streets of Brussels since the start of the war in Gazoo

Belgium has been hit repeatedly by holy warrior attacks. Last year, a soccer game between Belgium and Sweden was suspended at halftime following a gunman fatally shooting two Swedes in Brussels before kickoff.
Meanwhile,
...back at the cheese factory, there was only one thought in the mouse's mind: I can do this! I can do this! Then the trap sprung... the Asian Football Confederation gave its backing to a Paleostinian proposal to suspend Israel from FIFA due to the ongoing war in Gaza at its congress in Bangkok on Thursday, as the regional body also abolished term limits for its senior office bearers.
AFC president Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa voiced his support for the Paleostine Football Association’s motion ahead of Friday’s FIFA congress, which seeks to "adopt immediate and appropriate sanctions against Israeli teams."
The proposal was sent by the Paleostinians to FIFA on March 11 and will be discussed during the body’s annual gathering after being added to the agenda with the support of the Algerian, Jordanian, Syrian and Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... i federations.
AFC delegates stood for a minute’s silence in remembrance of the victims of the war in Gaza and were shown a video produced by the Paleostine FA highlighting the destruction caused by fighting between Israel and the Hamas terror group.
FIFA president Gianni Infantino touched on the matter in remarks to delegates as he called for a united front in efforts to deal with issues both within and outside the sport.
"We are all suffering with what is going on in Paleostine. We pray for the mothers who lose their children and we pray for the mothers who lose their children everywhere in the world," he said.
"Football can do only very little because to change situations everywhere in the world which are tragic, all we can do is to show unity because football is what unites everyone."
[Jpost] Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said on Friday that Madrid would only recognize a Palestinian state in a joint action with other countries.
How very progressive of you. Would that be the Palestinian/PLO state that is barely holding on in the West Bank or the Hamas state triggering the destruction of Gaza? Because as far as both are concerned, there can be only one.
In an interview with TV channel La Sexta, Sanchez also denied reports that the recognition would occur on May 21.
Probably better to postpone indefinitely, or until there is only one Palestinian terrorist government ruling over both statelets.
[Jpost] Spain will not authorize ships carrying weapons for Israel to call at its ports, Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said on Friday, after the country refused to let a ship call at the southeastern port of Cartagena.
The ship was the first to be denied access to a Spanish port, Albares said, adding the refusal was consistent with the government's decision not to grant weapon export licenses to Israel since Oct. 7, as Spain doesn't "want to contribute to war."
Spain has refused permission for an Israel-bound ship carrying arms to call at the southeastern port of Cartagena, Transport Minister Oscar Puente said on Thursday.
The Marianne Danica was carrying a cargo of arms to Israel and had requested permission to call at Cartagena on May 21, Transport Minister Oscar Puente said on X on Thursday.
EXPLOSIVE MATERIAL ONBOARD
It was carrying nearly 27 tons of explosive material from India's Madras, El Pais reported.
The Foreign Ministry, which Puente said denied the authorization, did not immediately reply to repeated requests for comment.
Danica Maritime, the company managing the Marianne Danica, did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
The reports come amid a spat between the ruling Socialists and their hard-left partners over allowing the transit of vessels carrying arms to Israeli ports.

[IsraelTimes] Loay Abdelfattah AlnajiIf accused of striking Paul Kessler with megaphone; could face over 4 years in jail if found guilty of involuntary manslaughter and battery
A judge decided Wednesday that a Southern Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, college professor will stand trial for involuntary manslaughter and battery in the death of a Jewish counter-protester during demonstrations over the Israel-Hamas ..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... war last year.
Superior Court Judge Ryan Wright judge declared after a two-day preliminary hearing that there’s enough evidence to try Loay Abdelfattah Alnaji,
…previously in our archives as Loay Alnaji, he has been a faculty advisor for Moorpark College’s Muslim Student Association — a long-established youth arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in America — and is an active member of the Islamic Society of Simi Valley. His YouTube channel, shut down after his arrest, while said to be an adjunct to his classroom teaching, was reportedly chock full of videos in Arabic. Make of that what you will, dear Reader…
according to the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office.
Alnaji, 51, is accused of striking Paul Kessler with a megaphone in November during a confrontation at an event that started as a pro-Paleostinian demonstration in Thousand Oaks, a suburb northwest of Los Angeles.
Kessler, 69, fell backward and struck his head on the pavement. He died the next day at a hospital.
Alnaji was charged with two felonies: involuntary manslaughter and battery causing serious bodily injury, with special allegations of personally inflicting great bodily harm injury on each count, the DA’s office said.
If found guilty of all charges, he could be sentenced to more than four years in prison.
Alnaji posted $50,000 bail. An email and phone message for Alnaji’s lawyer, Ron Bamieh, weren’t immediately returned Wednesday.
Alnaji, a professor of computer science at Moorpark College, had espoused pro-Paleostinian views on his Facebook page and other social media accounts, many of which were taken down in the days after Kessler’s death, according to the Los Angeles Times.

[REGNUM] On May 15, media reports appeared about the prevention of a conspiracy in Turkey. The purpose of the conspiracy is declared to be the overthrow of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. But very few details of this event are known. So what really happened there? I ran a quick internet search on Turkey, as well as looking through the Daily Mail, the New York Post, Breitbart, the Times of Israel, the Jerusalem Post’s breaking news feed., and Rudaw. I found nothing about a plot against the Erdogan government. While this does not mean nothing happened, Hurriyet became a government mouthpiece during the Gulen nonsense back in 2015 or so.

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A 'small' contingent of U.S. military personnel will provide security for a new $320 million floating pier bringing food aid to hungry residents of Gaza amid Israel's war on Hamas, the White House said.
White House national security spokesman John Kirby told reporters the U.S. military members would be there to provide security and assist in the complex orchestration of moving relief by sea and then distributing it to desperate residents by truck.
He said there would be a 'small U.S. military component on the pier itself.'
'One is to provide a modicum of security for it. But also to assist with the logistics. You're going to have ships pulling up to this pier. Not the big cargo ships. They'll transport it to smaller ships off the coast of Gaza ... You're going to need some logistical support to get it from the ships onto the trucks,' he said.
His comments to reporters come just two days after U.S. Central Command announced it had successfully anchored the pier to the beach in Gaza.
It stressed that no U.S. troops entered Gaza proper.
'As part of this effort, no U.S. troops entered Gaza. Trucks carrying humanitarian assistance are expected to begin moving ashore in the coming days. The United Nations will receive the aid and coordinate its distribution into Gaza,' according to the statement.
Kirby was emphatic that 'there are no U.S. servicemembers in Gaza.' President Biden, while providing billions in U.S. congressionally-appropriated military support to Gaza and using naval assets to protect navigation while helping foil attacks on Israel, has not involved U.S. forces in Israel's operation in Gaza.
Kirby's comments about U.S. forces came as he said there was a 'robust security plan' for the effort, and that the administration was 'laser focused on ensuring the safety of everybody involved in this effort,' amid concerns it could be vulnerable to attack.

The meeting of Arab heads of state and government convened in Bahrain more than seven months into the conflict in Gaza that has convulsed the wider region.
The "Manama Declaration" issued by the 22-member bloc called for "international protection and peacekeeping forces of the United Nations in the occupied Paleostinian territories" until a two-state solution is implemented.
The declaration also called on "all Paleostinian factions to join under the umbrella of the Paleostine Liberation Organization," which is dominated by Hamas' political rivals, the ruling Fatah movement.
The Arab League added that it considered the PLO "the sole legitimate representative of the Paleostinian people".

Why bother? It's been done before with no actual peacekeeping being done.

Compel? Even the powerhouses of Egypt and Jordan can’t do more than carp and whine.

The foreign ministers of six G7 states — Germany, La Belle France, the UK, Italia, Japan and Canada — as well as their counterparts from Australia, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, South Korea and Sweden signed the letter, Al Jazeera reported.

Will they be as effective as the recent salvo from Iran, an embarrassing percent of which did not make it past Iran’s borders?
[An Nahar] Head of Hezbollah's executive council, Sayyed Hashem Safieddine, warned Israel on Friday that Hezbollah is ready to use new weapons in the battlefield.
Hezbollah has regularly fired missiles across the border with Israel over the past seven months, but has on Thursday launched its first successful missile Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... from within Israeli airspace, using a drone that fired two missiles. The attack maimed three soldiers, one of them seriously, according to the Israeli military.
The group has stepped up its attacks on Israel in recent weeks, particularly since the Israeli incursion into the southern city of Rafah in 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... Strip. It has struck deeper inside Israel and introduced new and more advanced weaponry.
"The resistance on the southern border has proven that it has many options in the battlefield," Safieddine said.
Also this week, Hezbollah launched three anti-tank guided missiles at an Israeli military post that controlled a surveillance balloon flying over the border. They released camera footage afterward to show they had hit their mark. Hours later, the Israeli military confirmed that the spy balloon had been shot down over 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... "We have multiple options that are guaranteed to succeed and to exhaust the enemy," Safieddine said. "If the enemy wants to continue the fight, we are ready to use new weapons," he added.
Hezbollah's use of more advanced weaponry, including drones capable of firing missiles, explosive drones and the small type of guided missile known as Almas, or Diamond, that was used to attack the base controlling the balloon has raised alarms within the Israeli military.
"This is a time of major changes," Safieddine said. "What is happening in Gaza, on the (southern) border, and in the region undoubtedly carries great implications."
"It shows the fragility and apparent confusion of the Israeli enemy," he added.
