Afghanistan
15 ISIS and Taliban group members join peace in East of Afghanistan
[Khaama Press] At least fifteen bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems affiliated with the ISIS and Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
groups joined grinding of the peace processor in eastern Nangarhar
The unfortunate Afghan province located adjacent to Mohmand, Kurram, and Khyber Agencies. The capital is Jalalabad. The province was the fief of Younus Khalis after the Soviets departed and one of his sons is the current provincial Taliban commander. Nangarhar is Haqqani country..
province of Afghanistan.

According to the local government officials, at least two local leaders of the bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems are also among those who reconciled with the government.

The Nangarhar governor’s front man Ataullah Khogyani told news hounds that the Taliban and ISIS groups joined grinding of the peace processor due to the efforts of the Afghan intelligence operatives.

Khogyani further added that a group of 8 ISIS bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems led by commander Abdul Manan and a group of 7 Taliban bandidos murderous Moslems led by commander Faridullah laid down their arms and joined grinding of the peace processor.

He said the bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems were previously conducting insurgency activities in Khogyani, Pacher Agam, and Chaparhar districts of Nangarhar.

According to Khogyani, the bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems have also handed over a rocket along with 15 different types of weapons to thhe security forces.

Khogyani said the reconciled bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems have promised that they will not join the bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems ranks again.

The provincial governor’s front man also added that 166 bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems including 44 ISIS bandidos murderous Moslems have so far joined grinding of the peace processor in Nangarhar due to the efforts of the intelligence operatives.

The Nangarhar governor’s office meanwhile says that around 861 bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems have joined grinding of the peace processor since the efforts were launched many years ago by Afghan intelligence to encourage the bandidos bandidos murderous Moslems to reconciliation process.

Egyptian Christian clerics praise decision to allow worship at unlicensed churches pending formal recognition
[AlAhram] A number of Christian clergymen and political commentators have welcomed the latest decision by Egypt's Ministry of Housing to allow Christians to practice religious rites at unlicensed churches pending their formal recognition as places of worship.

A committee was formed in January 2017 by Prime Minister Sherif Ismail to review requests to formally recognise unlicensed churches.

The committee was formed in accordance with law no 80/2016, which eases restrictions on the building of churches.

The housing ministry's decision came upon a request from Archpriest Michael Antoun, the Coptic Orthodox Church’s representative in the committee, according to a statement by the ministry.

Archpriest Antoun said that the Church has presented requests to formally recognise 2,600 churches and affiliated buildings in all Egyptian governorates by the end of September 2017.

Antoun said that the 2016 law allows religious rites to be practiced at unlicensed churches pending the legalisation of their status.

Karim Kamal, a Coptic political researcher and president of Copts for the Nation, described the ministry's decision as a positive step towards implementing the 2016 law on building churches.

"The issue of unlicensed churches is not a problem from the state, governors, the ministry of interior or housing," says Kamal, arguing that this is evident from the efforts by the Armed Forces to restore churches that were torched in the wake of the 30 June revolution in 2013.

"The real problem lies in the ultra-conservative Islamists in some villages in rural and Upper Egyptian governorates, who fuel tensions over small unlicensed churches to pressure security officials into closing these churches to prevent sectarian strife," Kamal said.

Kamal also called on the state to enforce the rule of law and not to resort to mediating between parties to settle sectarian conflict.

Youssef Talaat, the legal representative of the Anglican Church in the committee, affirmed there are currently no Anglican churches that have been shuttered.

However,
it was a brave man who first ate an oyster...
he expressed support for the Coptic Orthodox Church, which he says is the most affected by the closure of churches. Coptic Orthodox Christians make up 90 percent of all Christians in the country.

Catholic Archpriest of Giza Antonios Aziz also praised the Ministry of Housing’s decision, saying that it prevents the recurrence of sectarian incidents over unlicensed churches.

The ministry’s decision comes one month after a mob of Moslems stormed a building in Giza’s Atfih over a rumour that the premises would soon be officially recognised as a church. A number of Christians were maimed in the incident.

In October 2016, four churches were closed in Upper Egypt's Minya governorate following sectarian festivities over the premises being used as Christian places of worship without a licence. Christian officials and clergymen protested the decision to close the churches.

Before the church building law was passed in 2016, Christians ‐ who make up an estimated 10 percent of the country's nearly 100 million people ‐ had long struggled to obtain permits to build churches, with the process at times taking years decades.

EU, Norway to Convene Emergency Meeting of Donor Groups Providing Palestinians Financial Aid
If y’all want to make up that $300 million out of your own pockets, America won’t object.
[Haaretz] The conference, to be held on January 31, is being held against the backdrop of a U.S. threat to cut funding to the Paleostinians and a stalemate in Israeli-Paleostinian peace talks.

The European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
and Norway will be convening an emergency meeting of donor groups that provide funding for the Paleostinians.

The gathering is being held against the backdrop of the crisis in peace talks between Israel and the Paleostinians, the American threat to cut financial assistance to the Paleostinians and the stalled reconciliation process between Paleostinian President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas
... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial...
' Fatah faction and Hamas, one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbung millipede,, which controls the Gazoo Strip. The gathering will also examine the humanitarian situation in Gazoo.

Regional Cooperation Minister Tzachi Hanegbi and the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, Maj. Gen. Yoav Mordechai will be representing Israel at the conference, which will take place on January 31 at the initiative of Norwegian Foreign Minister Ine Marie Eriksen Søreide and European Union foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini.

U.S. President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
has threatened to cut funding to the Paleostinians if they don’t return to the negotiating table. Among the possibilities is cutting U.S. funding to UNRWA, which is more than $300 million a year ‐ about a third of the agency’s budget.

A senior Israeli official has told Haaretz that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu only supports a gradual cut. This comes in the context of Israeli security officials’ position that a collapse of humanitarian aid in Gazoo could worsen the security situation.

Iraq
Number of U.S. troops in Iraq will be cut down gradually: ambassador
Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) The U.S. military presence in Iraq is limited to advisory duties and the number of troops will be cut down gradually, American ambassador to Iraq said Wednesday.

Alsumaria News quoted Douglas Silliman saying in a presser at the embassy in Baghdad that U.S. military presence has been decreased in Iraq, especially in Anbar province in coordination with Iraqi forces.

He noted that the next months will see U.S. troops reduced gradually without a replacement.

According to Silliman, the U.S. is currently focused on the training of Iraqi troops to maintain control over areas recaptured from 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....
Lion of Islams, as well as humanitarian aid to refugees.

He put the total of U.S. expenditure on security at recaptured areas, including demining efforts, at USD112 million, besides other funds spent through the UNDP in Iraq.

The Pentagon said in November it maintains nearly 8000 troops in Iraq.

Iraqi officials have regularly said the U.S.-led coalition forces, which supported Iraqi operations against IS since 2014, had not been engaged in ground combat, and were rather providing air and artillery backup.

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Why there is no peace.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised US Ambassador David Friedman for articulating the "unvarnished" truth on Wednesday when he tweeted that terrorism and the Palestinian reaction to it are the reasons there is no peace.

"An Israeli father of six was killed last night in cold blood by Palestinian terrorists. Hamas praises the killers and PA laws will provide them financial rewards,"
Friedman wrote on his Twitter account in reaction to the murder of Raziel Shevach. "Look no further to why there is no peace."

New head of Hamas terror operations in West Bank revealed
Scorecard! Getcher scorecard here! You can’t know the players without a scorecard!
(A photo of the gentlemen in question can be seen at the link.)
[Ynet] Maher Obeid replaces Saleh al-Arouri, who was made deputy Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth", leader, as the head of Hamas's 'West Bank Headquarters,' responsible for establishing terror infrastructure and orchestrating attacks.

Saleh al-Arouri, who was appointed in October as the deputy Hamas leader, was replaced in his role as Hamas's "military commander in the West Bank" by Maher Obeid, sources in the Paleostinian security forces revealed to Ynet on Wednesday.

ISIS vs Hamas in Gaza
article explains the video earlier this week in which a Hamas guy was executed by an ISIS tribunal
[GatestoneInstitute] ISIS is making it clear that it now has its eyes set on the Gaza Strip. By calling on Palestinians to rebel against Hamas, ISIS is hoping to facilitate its mission of infiltrating the Gaza Strip. For the Egyptians, this means that one day
[assuming ISIS succeeds]
they will have to fight ISIS not only in the Sinai, but also inside the Gaza Strip. The biggest losers, once again: the Palestinians.

Drone Attack on Russia Bases in Syria 'Came from Idlib'
[AnNahar] Drones that attacked Russian bases in Syria last week were sent from Idlib, a "de-escalation" zone controlled by anti-Damascus fighters, the Russian defence ministry's official newspaper said Wednesday.

Idlib province has been a source of tension between regime-backer Russia and rebel-supporter The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
, with Ankara accusing the Syrian regime of stepping up its offensive on key rebel-held areas there.

"The drones were launched from the area of Muazzara in the southwestern part of the Idlib de-escalation area controlled by so-called 'moderate opposition' units," defence ministry newspaper Krasnaya Zvezda said.

The ministry has written to the chiefs of the Ottoman Turkish army and intelligence service to insist that Ankara fully implement a ceasefire in Idlib province, the paper added.

Idlib is one of four de-escalation zones in Syria covered by a deal meant to reduce violence that was struck last year by Turkey, Russia and government-backer Iran.

On Tuesday, Turkey's foreign ministry summoned the Russian and Iranian ambassadors to Ankara, according to diplomatic sources, after saying the Syrian regime was targeting moderate opposition forces in Idlib near the Ottoman Turkish border.

Ottoman Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said this could torpedo talks aimed at ending the war.

Russia is hoping to hold a Syria peace congress in its Black Sea resort of Sochi on January 29-30.

Idlib province is almost entirely controlled by anti-government forces that are dominated by a jihadist outfit known as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham
On Monday, Russia said death droids carrying explosives attacked Russian bases in Syria last weekend without causing any casualties or damage.

announced in mid-December the partial withdrawal of forces from the country, saying their task had been largely completed.

The size of the toal Russian deployment in Syria is not known but independent Russian military expert Pavel Felgenhauer told AFP that up to 10,000 troops and private contractors could have taken part in the conflict.

More than 330,000 people are estimated to have been killed in the Syrian war, which began in 2011 as the regime crushed anti-government protests. Millions have been displaced.

Turkey urges Russia, Iran to stop Syria offensive on Idlib
[IsraelTimes] Foreign minister calls on Assad allies to halt regime's deadly bombardment of rebel-held city.

The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund....
on Wednesday called on Russia and Iran, the two chief allies of Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad
Terror of Aleppo ...
’s regime in Syria, to halt an air offensive on the rebel-held Idlib province near the Ottoman Turkish border.

Ankara has been working closely with Russia and Iran to end the Syrian conflict over the last months but has stepped up pressure on Moscow and Tehran as the bombardments on Idlib intensified.

"Iran and Russia should fulfill their responsibility. If you are guarantors ‐ and you are ‐ they should stop the regime," Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told the official Anadolu news agency.

"This is not a simple air offensive. The regime is advancing inside Idlib. They have a different intention."

Cavusoglu emphasized that in efforts to bring peace to Syria, Russia and Iran were the "guarantors" of the regime side and Turkey of the opposition.

Idlib province is almost entirely controlled by anti-government forces that are dominated by a jihadist outfit known as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham
(HTS) consisting mostly of former fighters from the 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 .. ...
Front, an Al Qaeda affiliate.

Ankara has already summoned the Russian and Iranian ambassadors, in the biggest public flare-up of tensions with Moscow and Tehran in months.

It conveyed "uneasiness" to the Russian ambassador Tuesday, calling the strikes a "violation of the borders of the Idlib de-escalation zone" established by Turkey, Iran and Russia, according sources at the foreign ministry.

Cavusoglu said 95 percent of the violations in Idlib were carried out by the regime and the groups backing the regime.

President Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First

to discuss the situation, he added.

"We cannot remain indifferent. We have exerted so many efforts and we cannot waste them."

The escalation comes as Russia is hoping to hold a Syria peace congress in its Black Sea resort of Sochi on January 29-30 bringing together all the main parties in the conflict.

A previous attempt in November to convene talks in Sochi failed due to disagreements between the prospective participants.

But in a major potential obstacle for Sochi, Turkey says it will oppose any talks involving the Syrian Kurdish militia the Peoples’ Protection Units (YPG), which Ankara views as a terror group.

Cavusoglu repeated Turkey’s red line over its presence in Sochi by saying that: "We have said we will not be in any environment... where the YPG is present."

Islamic State’s Baghdadi likely to be in Africa, experts say
(IraqiNews.com) Several experts in Islamist groups affairs have said the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi.

is likely to be in Africa, being the safest place at the meantime for the hard boy group, the Russian agency Sputnik reported.

Sameh Eid, an expert in Jihadist groups affairs in Egypt, said Baghdadi is likely to be in Africa, after the group members fled Iraq and Syria.

Africa, according to Eid, is the biggest battlefield that the group seeks entering in order to have access to Egypt. Regarding the access to Africa, he said that it just needs the help of intelligence to guarantee transferring him from one place to another in Africa, which is possible, especially in light of accusations among intelligence services over transferring the Death Eaters from Syria and Iraq.

Baghdad could make an audio or video recording, if alive, to show that the group still exists, Eid said.

Meanwhile,

h, said Baghdadi is likely to me in other places like the Sahara desert, northern Chad or the borders between Algeria and Niger.

Speaking to Sputnik, Ibrahim said those place are considered as safe shelters due to suffering security failure in addition to being mountainous areas, where he can hide for long time. Members from these countries, which suffer poverty and conflicts, can be recruited.

Moreover, Nasser al-Hawari, Libyan expert, said the group seeks including the biggest number of terrorist cells in Libya, Chad, Niger and Sudan.

He added that tension at some African countries will help the group recruit more members, especially at countries that witness conflicts.
