[BerlinerKurier] A quarrel with his girlfriend infuriated a 19-year-old, so he wanted to drown the young girl in the Havel. The 17-year-old was able to save herself, the perpetrator (a non-swimmer) sank in icy water. And now died of the consequences.
On December 19, according to the findings of the police, the asylum-seeker from Afghanistan had pushed his 17-year-old German girlfriend on Spandauer Bergwall into the Havel. Then the man jumped behind and tried several times to push the young woman under water - which failed, however. Instead, the 17-year-old managed to swim away and reach the saving shore. The savage had less luck: Since he could not swim, he went down in the only two degrees (Celsius) cold Havel.
The alarmed fire brigade and water police could pull the Afghan out of the water and resuscitate him. He was then taken to the intensive care unit of the Virchow Clinic. Here he fell directly into a coma.
On February 14, Valentine's Day, the 19-year-old died of the consequences of his bad deed, without having regained consciousness once again, as confirmed by the Senate justice administration on Friday.
His 17-year-old victim suffered a severe hypothermia in the attempted murder, but otherwise remained uninjured.

He was so focused on making her drown that it did not occur to him that jumping into an icy river wasn't a good idea. They love death more than we love life.

Federal prosecutors say the man was detained Thursday in the central state of Hesse.
Prosecutors said in a statement Friday that the suspect, identified only as Abduqaadir A. in line with German privacy laws, is suspected of attempted murder and accessory to murder.
He is alleged to have joined al-Shabaab in Somalia in 2012, undergone weapons training and then taken part in the killing of a person at a mosque.
The suspect is alleged to have later attempted to kill a member of the Somali government, who survived the attack.
After being detained by al-Shabaab for failing to carry out the killing, the suspect fled Somalia and reached Germany in 2014.

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Jordan’s army said Saturday it has foiled a plot to smuggle arms, drugs and "terrorists" through a disused oil pipeline along its border with Syria.
"The Jordanian armed forces were able... to thwart a plan to smuggle weapons, drugs and terrorists" through the pipeline, an official in the general command said in a statement.
"A group of Death Eaters and narcos" had used a house near the Jordan-Syria border and the disused Trans-Arabian Pipeline (Tapline) to "dig and prepare a series of tunnels for use in smuggling operations and to carry out terrorist attacks", the official said.
Authorities have ordered the destruction of the tunnels and instructed army engineering units to unearth the pipeline to prevent other "smugglers and terrorists" from using it.

[JPOST] The Israeli Air Force (IAF) struck six Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, targets in the Gazoo Strip on Saturday evening in response to the detonation of an bomb on the Gazoo border earlier in the day that maimed four IDF soldiers, two severely.
Targets included a Hamas-built offensive terror tunnel from the Zeitoun neighborhood of Gazoo which was dug towards Israeli territory.
Another target stuck included a Hamas military compound in the Netzarim area which included weapons manufacturing sites and a Hamas military compound in Khan Younis.
"The IDF views with great severity the attempt by Hamas to carry out seemingly spontaneous demonstrations intended to turn the fence into a confrontation zone and carry out acts of terror that would destabilize the Gazoo Strip," read a statement by the IDF spokesperson’s unit.
"Hamas is responsible for the event and its consequences, as well as for everything happening in and out of the Gazoo Strip, above and below the ground," it added.
Earlier Saturday, two IDF soldiers were severely maimed and two others moderately and lightly maimed after the device exploded during an IDF patrol. They were evacuated to Saroka Hospital in Beersheba by military helicopter.
Shortly afterwards, an IDF tank targeted an observation post in the southern Gazoo Strip in response.
"The incident on the Gazoo border is very serious. We will respond appropriately," said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu following the border attack.
While the tension has risen on Israel’s border with the Gazoo Strip in recent months, the discovery and detonation of improvised bombs causing injuries to soldiers along border fence are rare. Few have been discovered since the end of Operation Protective Edge, once in early 2015, another in April 2016 and another two in March 2017.
While Israel's security establishment does not believe that Hamas wants another conflict with Israel, the situation remains fragile especially because of the worsening humanitarian conditions in the Gazoo enclave.

I think it was determined that Islamic Jihad had set the bomb. Hamas can thank them for the kabooms and destruction

[AlAhram] Jordan's army said Saturday it has foiled a plot to smuggle arms, drugs and "terrorists" through a disused oil pipeline along its border with Syria.
"The Jordanian armed forces were able... to thwart a plan to smuggle weapons, drugs and terrorists" through the pipeline, an official in the general command said in a statement.
"A group of snuffies and narcos" had used a house near the Jordan-Syria border and the disused Trans-Arabian Pipeline (Tapline) to "dig and prepare a series of tunnels for use in smuggling operations and to carry out terrorist attacks", the official said.
Authorities have ordered the destruction of the tunnels and instructed army engineering units to unearth the pipeline to prevent other "smugglers and terrorists" from using it.
Tapline used to transport Saudi oil through Jordan, Syria's Golan Heights -- parts of which have been occupied by Israel since 1967 -- onto Leb and the Mediterranean.
The 1,200-kilometre (750-mile) pipeline was built in 1950 and links the Saudi oilfield of Abqaiq to the Mediterranean terminal of Zahrani, 40 kilometres (25 miles) south of Beirut.
Oil transport through Tapline to Leb stopped in 1981 because of the Lebanese civil war.
[Mindanao Examiner] Abu Sayyaf rebels killed a Philippine soldier and injured two others in a gun battle in the southern province of Sulu. The clash in Patikul town was unreported by the Western Mindanao Command, but security sources said it occurred in Tugas village.
Troops were searching for kidnapped government engineer Enrico Nee in the village when gunmen attacked them. Nee was seized February 14 while waiting for a motorcycle taxi near his home in San Raymundo village in Jolo town. Nee was dragged by gunmen to a getaway vehicle.
The abduction came just several days after troops killed four rebels in a clash in Panamao town where seven soldiers were also injured in the fighting. Members of the Marine Battalion Landing Team 3 clashed with some 30 gunmen under Abu Sayyaf commanders Sansibar Bensio and Hatib Munap Binda in Mount Bawis.
The troops were sent to the area following reports that several Abu Sayyaf hostages had been spotted there. The Abu Sayyaf are still holding over a dozen captives, mostly seamen kidnapped off Sabah in Malaysia over the years.

Washington Post and AP reporters interviewed FSA elements, also referred to Al Qaeda and published a sympathetic report on their cause explaining why their progress in Aftin has been limited.
Below is a video of a Kurdish unit being watched by a Turk drone which results in them being possibly destroyed in what appears to be an air strike a few days ago.

[ALMASDARNEWS] A month-long operation by Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems.... forces against al-Qaeda affiliate group Ha’yat Tahrir al-Sham (formerly Jabhat al-Nusra ...formally Jabhat an-Nusrah li-Ahli al-Sham (Support Front for the People of the Levant), also known as al-Qaeda in the Levant. They aim to establish a pan-Arab caliphate. Not the same one as the Islamic State, though .. ... ) for control of the Yarmouk Camp distinct town in southern Damascus has seen the latter faction get totally annihilated by the former.
Both opposition and government observer sources in Damascus describe the fighting between ISIS Death Eaters and rival snuffies throughout Yarmouk Camp as particularly brutal.
Just like any battle with the Syrian Army, Islamic State turbans are taking no prisoners ‐ at least not without executing them soon after.
At the present time, ISIS is storming the Ar-Rija Square (map update available here) ‐ considered by sources to be Ha’yat Tahrir al-Sham’s final defense line and last stronghold area within Yarmouk Camp.
Should Islamic State forces take Ar-Rija Square, then Ha’yat Tahrir al-Sham will have suffered absolute defeat within the district town ‐ the years-long battle for control of it finally coming to a sudden and very bloody end.

The report added that the festivities took place near the village of Marbo, which is located along the Lebanese border.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
Somalia's version of the Taliban, functioning as an arm of al-Qaeda...
the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord...
...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who most be killed...
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality...
...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. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic...
the personification of Somali state failure...
