In a statement to the Afghan ambassador to Pakistan, Shireen M. Mazari, spokesperson for the chairman of Pakistan's Tehreek-e-Insaf Imran Khan, said on Saturday that misunderstandings had arisen out of a remark about the treatment of an Afghan Taliban leader at the Shaukat Khanum cancer hospital in Lahore.
This came after media reports emerged Saturday that Khan reportedly confirmed that a top Taliban leader, who has cancer, was treated for his illness at the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Center, a hospital in the Pakistani city of Lahore.
The reports sparked outrage among Afghan political analysts, who said this confirms Pakistan's support of militant groups including that of the Taliban group.
But in the statement, Mazari said: "I wish to clear any misunderstanding that may have arisen out of a remark he made in a television interview about the treatment of an Afghan Taliban leader at the Shaukat Khanum cancer hospital in Lahore – which was subsequently taken out of context and also misinterpreted by segments of the Pakistani media."
"The chairman was discussing the issue of free treatment of 70 percent of cancer patients at the Shaukat Khanum hospital and that a number of these patients are Pathans including Afghans. That is one reason why the chairman decided to raise funds to build the second Shaukat Khanum cancer hospital in Peshawar."
Mazari went on to say: "In passing, he also referred to receiving a letter from an Afghan Taliban leader who had apparently received treatment at the Lahore hospital."
Mazari said: "The hospital does not ask for political or religious affiliations of its patients who all receive the same quality care whether it is free or being paid for, the revelation that an Afghan Taliban leader had been treated at the hospital only came about when that person sent a thank you letter. At the time that he was undergoing treatment there was no information about his political or religious associations except that he was an Afghan in need of treatment."
The statement went on to read: "So I hope you will understand that as a humanitarian hospital which offers free cancer treatment to 70 percent of its patients without discrimination, it is not possible for anyone to recognize, amongst the Afghans being treated, who is a Taliban and who is not. Nor would you or your government want us to stop offering treatment to Afghans who are our brethren and whom we have been hosting for over two decades now in Pakistan."

I am for down for this guy being getting chemo for free in Lahore. I know that my stance may be controversial, but I would that the State Department not pay for the guy to be flow in for free treatment in our country. I am sure they considered it.

[Daily Excelsior] Iran's foreign ministry front man accused Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... today of supporting terrorism and executing its opponents, after Saudi Arabia executed a prominent Shi'ite holy man. "The Saudi government supports Death Eaters and takfiri ...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... (radical Sunni) myrmidons, while executing and suppressing critics inside the country," Foreign Ministry front man Hossein Jaber Ansari was quoted as saying by state news agency IRNA
More impassioned invective for your pleasure, dear Reader:
[SACBEE] The truce in 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. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... between Iranian catspaws and a Saudi-led military coalition has formally ended, according to Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... 's state-run news agency ...and if you can't believe the state-run news agency who can you believe?... .Lemme see... Saturday's today, right?
The truce technically came into effect on Dec. 15, 2015 as a mutual show of good faith during peace negotiations taking place in Switzerland ...home of the Helvetians, famous for cheese, watches, yodeling, and William Tell... .
But the truce never truly took hold on the ground in Yemen, with both sides ignoring it. The United Nations ...a formerly good idea gone bad... said on Dec. 20 there were "numerous violations" of the cease-fire agreement from the very start.
Yemen's conflict pits the internationally recognized government backed by a Saudi-led, U.S.-supported coalition against the rebels, known as Houthis, who are allied with a former president. Local affiliates of al-Qaeda and the 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.... group have also exploited Yemen's chaos to grab land and exercise influence.
According to U.N. figures, the war in Yemen has killed at least 5,884 people since March, when fighting escalated after the Saudi-led coalition began launching Arclight airstrikes targeting the rebels.

[SKYNEWS.AU] British veterans of the Iraq War could face prosecution for crimes including murder, the head of a team examining potential torture and unlawful killing during the conflict has said.
Mark Warwick, who leads the Government-established Iraq Historic Allegations Team (IHAT), has told The Independent there are 'lots of significant cases' where there is substantial evidence for the Service Prosecuting Authority (SPA) to press charges.
Some of the 'serious allegations' being investigated may meet the threshold of a war crime, he added.
As of September 2015, the multimillion-pound inquiry has been in contact with 1,515 potential victims - but 280 of them were allegedly killed in unlawful circumstances.
Mr Warwick, a former police detective, has said members of the Armed Forces could be notified if they will face prosecution by 2019.
He explained: 'We would look at the credibility of the allegation in the first instance; and, when we've looked at a lot of these extra cases coming to us, some of them are duplicates of cases, some of them we've already identified as part of our own investigation process, and some are multiple allegations where we would investigate as a single allegation.'
The official also confirmed that the case of Baha Mousa remains a 'live criminal investigation'.
An inquiry found the Iraqi hotel receptionist died after being interrogated by British soldiers, in what was described as an 'appalling episode of serious gratuitous violence'.
Even though the inquiry's caseload is being reviewed 'over the next 12 to 18 months', campaigners are calling for IHAT to work faster, as answers may only emerge 10 years after the war's 2009 end.
Carla Ferstman, of the human rights One man's rights are another man's existential threat. charity Redress, told The Independent: 'The incredibly slow place at which IHAT is investigating allegations of criminality committed by UK soldiers against Iraqi civilians is wholly unacceptable.

[Hurriyet] Around 1,800 people, including 750 coppers and 80 soldiers, have been detained as part of ongoing operations in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... against sympathizers of U.S.-based Islamic scholar Fethullah Gulen since 2014.
It's no fun being associated with a former best friend of Turkish President Tayyip Recep Erdogan.
Some 439 detainees, including 205 coppers and 34 soldiers, have been formally tossed in the slammer Book 'im, Mahmoud! in 2014 and 2015 amid operations across the country against the so-called "parallel structure."
A majority of these suspects have been released from prison pending trial, while there were still 278 people in jail pending trial as of Jan. 1.
Since early 2014, investigations into the "parallel structure" have seen hundreds of civil servants, including coppers and public prosecutors, arrested or reassigned.
The first operation against Gulenists took place on February 2014 in the southern province of Adana with suspects detained on "espionage" accusations.
Gulen is the top suspect in numerous cases involving the "Fethullahist Terror Organization (FETÖ)/Parallel State Structure (PDY)," an alleged illegal organization that the government says is led by him. Both Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan ... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him... and the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) accuse the "parallel structure" of exploiting the judiciary and state institutions to achieve its goal of overthrowing the government.
Gulen has lived in self-imposed exile in the United States since 1999 but is now the subject of a series of arrest warrants in Turkey. A prosecutor is seeking a prison sentence of up to 34 years for Gulen on allegations that he sought to topple Erdogan. Gulen denies the allegations.
On Nov. 10, 2015, an Istanbul court accepted an indictment against 122 suspects including Gulen, former police chief Yurt Atayun, and police officer-turned-columnist Emre Uslu. The indictment came as part of the investigation into misconduct in a past probe that led to sprawling surveillance activities against hundreds of leading politicians, academics and journalists.
Demanding the arrest of Gulen and Uslu without a warrant, the Istanbul 14th Court for Serious Crimes on Nov. 9 accepted the indictment against 122 suspects. Gulen was listed as the primary suspect and Uslu was listed as the secondary suspect in the indictment.
The court ruled to issue red notices for Gulen and Uslu as they were abroad at the time, while it also wrote an official letter to the Justice Ministry's International Law and Foreign Affairs Directorate to bring the two back to Turkey.
A total of 968 people, including Erdogan, Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, all ministers in the 61st AKP cabinet, several university rectors, academics, public servants, journalists and other prominent figures were listed as victims and plaintiffs in the indictment.
The indictment also demanded double aggravated life sentences against Gulen, Uslu and Atayun for charges including one count each of "forming and heading an armed terrorist organization," "gathering officially confidential information for political and military surveillance purposes," "attempting to topple the government of the Republic of Turkey," "violation of private life and keeping personal data," "fabricating false documents," "fabricating criminal activity," "publicizing officially confidential information for political and military surveillance purposes," "obstructing, concealing and manipulating evidence" and "unlawful recording of personal data."
That Erdogan fellow gets awfully waspish when he stops loving you.

[RT] A captured 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.... turban who spoke to Sputnik news agency has bolstered claims that The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... is involved in illegal oil deals with the jihadist group up to the hilt.
24-year-old Mahmud Ghazi Tatar says he joined Islamic State (IS, previously ISIS/ISIL) from the Turkish city of Adiyaman. Together with other recruits, he was transported over the border into Syria where he received terrorist training.
Having taken part in the civil war in Syria, he was captured by Kurdish forces last June and is now imprisoned.
RT obtained interview footage with the captive from Sputnik news agency. In it, the former IS fighter reveals details about Turkey's alleged oil links to the terror group.
"At the training camp in May 2015, our commander told us that the group sells fuel to Turkey. That income covers Islamic State's costs. The oil trucks crossing into Turkey every day carry crude oil, as well as petrol," Tatar said, adding that the Islamic group has "enough oil to last them a long time."
In the words of Tatar's commander, the oil is being sold via several businessmen and traders, although their names were not disclosed.
"ISIL also receives lots of supplies from Turkey and Arab countries," the captured turban said.
Turkey strongly denies that it has links to the terrorists.
ISIS's black market oil trade has come under scrutiny from the international community amid turbulent oil prices, which have fallen to half their previous level in 2015.
Crude oil extracted at Syria's Deir ez-Zor and Iraq's Qayyara oil fields, which remain under under Islamic State control, is being sold for as little as $25 per barrel to smugglers, independent Syrian and Iraqi traders who transport oil using their own trucks.
The crude oil could also be sold to nearby refineries that produce petrol and fuel oil, or directly to the local oil market.
Yet the capacity of local buyers is limited, so smuggling oil to Turkey and other countries is more profitable.
"Turkey is playing not a very clean game, especially with smuggling the Iraqi oil and Syrian oil through the borders and selling it in the black market in Turkey," Iraqi MP Mowaffak Al-Rubaie, a former national security adviser, told RT, adding that a recent investigation by the Norwegian authorities exposed Turkey as having ties with Islamic State's illegal oil trade.

Reportedly the IS-oil smugglers are blending in with the Kurdish-oil traffic (which also has Baghdad's shorts on a bunch.) Sounds like the Turks aren't interested in paperwork.

And as long as the Kurds are exporting oil it'll be portrayed as "that ISIS oil trade that Barack Obama is allowing." He helps enable Post-Soviet Propaganda.
[Hurriyet] The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... and Israel are two countries in the Middle East that need each other, according to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan ... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him... "Israel is in need of a country like Turkey in the region. We have to admit that we also need Israel," Erdogan said on his return from an official trip to Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... Speaking to a group of journalists aboard the presidential plane returning to Turkey from Riyadh, where he met with Saudi King Salman ...either the largest species of Pacific salmon or the current Sheikh of the Burnin' Sands, Cutodian of the Two Holy Mosquesand Lord of Most of the Arabians.... bin Abdulaziz al-Saud, Erdogan said the mutual need "is a fact of the region."
"We need to see that. If we can take steps in reciprocal sincerity, then normalization will continue," he added.
Relations with Israel have been tense since May 31, 2010, when Israeli forces raided a Gazoo-bound flotilla of mainly Turkish activists, killing 10 people aboard the Mavi Marmara, the largest of the six vessels in the flotilla.
Presidential spokesperson Ibrahim Kalin said on Dec. 28, 2015, progress was made with Israel on the issue of compensation for Mavi Marmara victims, adding that Turkey had not changed its three conditions for normalization of ties between the two countries:
"There has been progress made about the second condition, the one with compensation, but we have not reached a point where we can ink it," Kalin told news hounds at a presser.
He said Israel has met first condition by apologizing to Turkey, and added that two more demands were still on the table: Compensation for Mavi Marmara victims and the "lift or bend" of an embargo implemented by Israel on Gazoo Strip.
Erdogan reiterated Turkey's stance.
"On the embargo, they [Israel] said 'goods, construction equipment can enter [Gazoo] via Turkey.' We will wait for the written text so that they do not back down," said Erdogan, adding that another important point for Turkey is the Israeli aggression on Al Aqsa Mosque.
Sneaking in a fourth condition? How terribly clever, and surely Israel will not notice.
'Kurdish strip' in Syria not acceptable
In addition, the president said Ankara would "not allow a Kurdish strip" to be formed in northern Syria.
Another thing to discuss with Russia, it appears. Good luck with that.
"Jerablus was one of our targets there in order to clear the region of Daesh [Islamic State]," said Erdogan, using an Arabic acronym for ISIL, referring to the Kurdish People's Protection Units' (YPG) possible crossing to the west of the Euphrates after Syrian Kurdish and Arab rebel forces backed by a U.S.-led coalition captured part of the Tishrin Dam.
"Watching the YPG come to that place is unacceptable. We will hold a meeting.
Golly -- a meeting. With who?
[If we allow the YPG to cross to the west of Euphrates], a Kurdish strip will be formed to the south of us and in the north of Syria. We cannot say 'yes' to this," he added.

[IsraelTimes] Owner of bar says ex-convict who planned to carry out terrorist act on New Year's Eve had been asked to leave in past
An ex-convict placed in durance vile Youse'll never take me alive coppers!... [BANG!]... Ow!... I quit! in a plot to carry out an attack at a bar on New Year's Eve is a panhandler who'd been asked to leave the tavern in the past, its owner said, while the man's family said he had a long history of mental problems.
Federal authorities have said Emanuel Lutchman, 25, sought to prove he was worthy of joining the 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.... group by leading an attack in Rochester with a machete and knives provided by an FBI informant.
After authorities announced his arrest Thursday, his father and mother described a man who'd had psychiatric troubles since childhood, had recently stabbed himself in a suicide attempt and, they said, wouldn't have conducted the attack on his own.
"The boy is impressionable," his father, Omar Lutchman, told NBC News. "First he was a Blood, then he was a Crip, then he became a Muslim. He's easily manipulated."
The father and the suspect's grandmother, Beverley Carridice, told the network that Lutchman is married and has a 2-year-old son but had been having marital problems.
Authorities said in court papers that Lutchman said he received direction from an overseas Islamic State group member and planned to carry out the attack Thursday.
"I will take a life, I don't have a problem with that," the court papers quoted Lutchman as saying.
Lutchman's lawyer, Steven Slawinski, declined to comment on the allegations. Lutchman has been charged with attempting to provide material support to terrorists.
While authorities didn't identify the target, a co-owner said it was Merchants Grill, a neighborhood sports pub. The US attorney's office for western New York did not return a phone call Friday seeking confirmation of that. Lutchman lived nearby and had repeatedly come into the bar asking for money, co-owner John Page told local media. He told WEHC-TV that Lutchman had been asked to leave several times.
He "caused more trouble than positive," Page told the Democrat and Chronicle of Rochester.
Lutchman was described in court papers as having a long criminal history, including a 2006 robbery conviction that led to a five-year prison sentence.
Lutchman's former stepmother, Charma Lutchman, told the Democrat and Chronicle that Lutchman spent part of his childhood living with his grandparents in New York City. She said that while young, he was struck by a car, an accident that transformed him from a happy-go-lucky boy to a more withdrawn child.
"He wasn't the same boy I knew after he got hit by a car," she said. "He was different, more quiet."
The newspaper reports Lutchman spent four months in a Rochester jail in 2015 on misdemeanor charges of petit larceny and menacing his girlfriend.
Lutchman was scheduled to appear in state court Jan. 11 on the domestic violence charges. It's likely that date will be postponed.

[Daily Excelsior] Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said "enemies of humanity" who could not digest India's progress carried out the attack in Pathankot.
Modi assured that the defence forces had the strength to defeat "the evil designs of our enemy."
"...Our security forces did not let them succeed: Proud of our jawans and security forces," he said here, referring to Pak terrorists'pre-dawn strike at the Indian Air Force base at Pathankot in Punjab.
The fierce gunbattle claimed the lives of three securitymen, while five infiltrators were killed, with the terror strike coming days after Modi's surprise stopover in Lahore in signs of thawing of relations with Pakistain.
"Today, enemies of humanity who can't see India progress tried to strike at our strategic area, a prominent airbase at Pathankot. I appreciate our armed forces and thank them for foiling our enemy's attempt," Modi said, adding "our security forces did not let them succeed."
"I want to assure our countrymen that our armed forces have the strength to defeat the evil designs of our enemy," he said.
Congratulating the armed forces "who are always ready to protect the country", he said if the country speaks out with unity, the "illwill of our enemies will get destroyed."
"I feel proud of our armed forces", said the Prime Minister in his speech at the birth centenary celebrations of Dr.Shivarathri Rajendra Mahaswamiji of Suttur Mutt which runs a string of educational institutions benefitting nearly a lakh students.
In his speech at the event, Modi said the 21st century is the century of knowledge.
"The one with more knowledge and information will influence the world", he said.
It is the saints who have understood what the 21st century is about, said the Prime Minister as he laid the foundation for a Knowledge Resource Centre at the Mutt. "...Rishis, saints, seers, Mutts... They have done so much for society. Sadly, some people have only believed in criticising," Modi said.
"These saints, seers...They overcame so much opposition and ensured evils were removed from society: Whenever the need came, a new strength always emerged from our society...," Modi said.
Speaking at another event, Modi said work of saints, seers and rishis had always been for the welfare of society. The seers and saints do not tomtom about their efforts as they feel it was part of their duty to work for the welfare of the society, he said during his visit to Avadhoota Datta Peetham, an ashram founded by Sree Ganapati Sachchidananda Swamiji, here, which is engaged in spiritual and welfare activities.
Modi, on a two-day visit to Karnataka, will inaugurate the annual Indian Science Congress here tomorrow as part of his engagements that also include laying the foundation stone for a helicopter manufacturing facility of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited in Tumkuru district tomorrow.

Egypt withdrew its ambassador in November 2012 to protest an Israeli offensive against Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip. At the time, Egypt was led by Islamist President Mohammed Morsi. Since Morsi was ousted by the military in 2013, relations have steadily improved. and degraded with our own MB-loving Preznit
The Israeli Foreign Ministry said Egypt's new ambassador, Hazem Khairat, arrived on Friday.
In September, Israel reopened its embassy in Cairo, four years after it was ransacked by a crowd protesting the deaths of five Egyptian policemen killed unintentionally by Israeli forces chasing a group of Gaza militants.

[Ynet] Various settlements in Gush Etzion in the West Bank had their electricity cut off for six hours on New Year's Eve. An initial inspection revealed that a wire with stone was thrown at a power line in a Paleostinian village, damaging it.
Suspicion was aroused on Friday of intentional damage to electricity power lines in the West Bank, after residents in several Gush Etzion settlements had their electricity cut off for six hours overnight on New Year's Eve.
The Israel Electric Corporation claimed that the electricity line had been damaged on purpose, and the IDF is looking into the matter.
An initial investigation revealed that in a Paleostinian village nearby, a wire with a stone had been thrown at a power line that provides electricity to Jewish settlements in the area. This apparently caused the power to be cut off, and repair teams that arrived on Friday morning to fix the outage realized that the blackout was not accidental.
Among the settlements cut off from Thursday night until Friday morning were Tekoa, Kfar Eldad, Nokdim and Sde Bar.
"We didn't know how we would cook for Shabbat. Families were considering whether to leave the settlement and spend Shabbat elsewhere for fear that they would stay with young children in a house with no electricity during stormy weather," said Marina Berger from Tekoa.
On Friday morning, staff repaired the damaged part of the line and electricity returned to the affected settlements. However, Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried... despite the repair, minor outages were still being reported on Friday.
