[EN.ALGHADEER.TV] A group of at least 30 armed people allegedly affiliated with the Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... -based Government of National Accord has attacked the Libyan embassy in the Belarusian capital of Minsk in the early hours of Thursday, Libyan Charge d’Affairs Mohammed Astete said.
"We were attacked by a group of around 30 people affiliated with the Libyan Government of National Accord", Astete said.
The embassy has pictures that prove this information, he noted, adding that he was personally assaulted. As of now, the diplomatic staff is inside the building, while the attackers still remain on the embassy’s territory.
"We have contacted the Libyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the situation was coordinated", Astete said.
A video, allegedly captured by the embassy’s CCTV shows people infiltrating the facility.
According to the diplomat, the Libyan officials were also in touch with the Belarusian Foreign Ministry, but the local law enforcement agencies did not take any measures on the matter. Astete also stated that the attackers were of Belarusian nationality.
The Libyan Embassy represents the GNA’s rival power — the eastern-based parliament, which is supported by the Libyan National Army led by Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar ...Self-proclaimed Field Marshal, served in the Libyan army under Muammar Qadaffy, and took part in the coup that brought Qadaffy to power in 1969. He became a prisoner of war in Chad in 1987. While held prisoner, he and his fellow officers formed a group hoping to overthrow Qadaffy, so it's kind of hard to describe him as a Qadaffy holdover. He was released around 1990 in a deal with the United States government and spent nearly two decades in the United States, gaining US citizenship. In 1993, while living in the United States, he was convicted in absentia of crimes against the Jamahiriya and sentenced to death. Haftar held a senior position in the anti-Qadaffy forces in the 2011 Libyan Civil War. In 2014 he was commander of the Libyan Army when the General National Congress (GNC) refused to give up power in accordance with its term of office. Haftar launched a campaign against the GNC and its Islamic fundamentalist allies. His campaign allowed elections to take place to replace the GNC, but then developed into a civil war. Guess you can't win them all. Actually, he is, but slowly... . His forces are fighting against the UN-backed Government of National Accord in the west, headed by Fayez Sarraj.

[Channel 3000 News] KENOSHA, Wis. — Nine people were arrested Wednesday night in Kenosha following a citizen tip regarding several "suspicious" vehicles with out of state plates meeting in a remote lot in the city.
According to our partners at CBS 58 in Milwaukee, officers located and followed a black school bus, bread truck and minivan to a gas station near Washington Road and 30th Avenue, where the occupants of the bus and truck exited and attempted to fill multiple fuel cans.
Police believed the occupants were preparing for criminal activity related to the protesting going on in the city. Police arrested the occupants inside the van after the driver tried leaving the area.
Police said helmets, gas masks, protective vests, illegal fireworks and suspect controlled substances were found in the vehicles, CBS 58 reports.
The nine individuals were arrested for possible disorderly conduct charges.

The vehicle belonged to an Antifa auxillary known as Riot Kitchen based in Seattle. Their stated goal is to provide food to the protesters. Excellent police work by the Feds. The charges however are curious. They crossed state lines to take part in a riot, but were charged with disorderly conduct? BS

Too bad there was no way to get laxative into their canteen stuff and just quietly park their truck near where they expected it to be with a note saying "Be right back. Help Yourselves."

I read somewhere—probably Zero Hedge comments—that the controlled substances that team Riot Kitchen were picked up with was meth. It would explain a lot if meth were the main item on the kitchen menu.

So when are we going to call this what it is? An armed insurrection.
18 U.S. Code § 2383.Rebellion or insurrection
Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.
If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

How do complicit governors fit into this equation?

Yes. This stopped being spontaneous, headless rioting a long time ago. This is national, this is coordinated directed supported and funded by national leaders

The Bedford thing the other day left a lot of information out. Isolated home. Knock at the door. Pregnant woman answers. She tells them to get off their private property. Closes the door and they push it open. Husband fires his shotgun. 9mm response is replied. They leave. Rumor they want to set fire to the courthouse. Estimated 500 locals show up. They call police. 6 FBI vehicles show up and transport group to State line with Maryland. Now onto DC for hymn singing and bible reading.

I think he means the Bedford County, PA situation where a homeowner fired a warning shotgun blast as "protesters" moved through town on their way to DC.

US gov't killed 258,000 participants in an armed insurrection 150+ years ago.

#9 Yes TW. I guess I live too close to that area. Bedford County ,PA. Spoke to a family close relation to woman who asked them to get off their property.
Something happened to this post and most of the content was hacked out and the title even changed. It wasn't about Rand Paul except with one video. I have most of them back.
#1
Regarding Rand Paul: Rand Paul attacked by Antifa and BLM leaving the Whitehouse. I guess having a Democrat thug beat him up and put him in the hospital a few years back with a punctured lung is not good enough for the Democratic Party's Brown Shirts!
#2
All the riot and outrage money can buy. They send their 'women' to provoke in the oddly mistaken idea that nobody would deliver up a good swift punch to the face.
#7
Or the attendees knew it was going to happen, but the outcome needed to be shown.
Deliberate provocation, using BLM/PantyFa's tactics against them.

I’m sure that White House security only covers the property itself. Beyond that it is the responsibility of the city of Washington, DC — and we know where that mayor’s sympathy lies.
#9
Thank you for fixing the post, 3dc. When I woke up from my nap the entire post had evaporated — stray gamma rays or something — leaving only an empty placeholder with the comments attached. I pasted in the Rand Paul tweet I remembered, but didn’t know what else was there originally.
#10
I find those videos really distressing to watch. I find myself thinking the busses should have been armed with flamethrowers, which is probably excessive.
#10
I live in the SC suburbs of Charlotte and can tell you that the mayor, Vi Lyles, is a black female Democrat. The Democrats have a majority on the city council. The outgoing and incoming police chiefs are both black.
As far as the release of the video, the riots are just beginning again in Charlotte...not sure quite yet what is going on.

BLM rioting broke out again last night in Minneapolis after police were blamed for a black male who committed suicide. Here, they hurled a metal projectile at an officer’s head and knocked him to the ground. #BlackLivesMatter#MinneapolisRiotspic.twitter.com/T9f3vbP5B6
[NYPOST] The Minneapolis Police Department knuckled under pressure and yanked an online video of a murder suspect’s suicide "out of respect to the individual, his family and the community."The department’s sudden about-face came Thursday — a day after they initially tweeted the graphic video hoping to dispel false reports that cops were somehow to blame in the man’s death, which kicked off a night of violent mostly peaceful unrest in the city.
"Yesterday MPD posted a video in order to dispel rumors that caused significant public safety concerns for our city," they tweeted. "After receiving feedback from the community, we have removed the video due to the graphic nature and out of respect to the individual, his family and the community."
Police removed the tweet containing the video, which The Post is continuing to publish.
The clip showed the man — suspected in a murder earlier Wednesday — fatally shooting himself on the Nicollet Mall in downtown just as cops close in around 6 p.m. Police tweeted the video about 90 minutes later amid widespread rumors that it was a police-involved shooting. Looting and vandalism continued throughout the night.
Critics aired their complaints on Twitter.
"Tell me again how the MPD respects individuals. I’ll wait," one tweeted, with a photo of fired Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin with his knee on the neck of George Floyd.
Someone else tweeted, "bang up job you guys are doing. everyone loves and trusts you more than ever now just bravo all around."

The man, Gaige Grosskreutz, that tried to kill #Kyle Rittenhouse with a pistol was quoted today by a friend as he left the hospital said ‘his only regret was not killing the kid and hesitating to pull the gun before emptying the entire mag into him’.
#Rittenhouse was well within his right of self defense against his attackers.

Antifa in Portland are extremely nervous after it was reported that the FBI is going to investigate the riots happening in Oregon. #PortlandRiotspic.twitter.com/7Fi8HjCmDr
Breaking: The DOJ for the District of Oregon announces that a total of 74 people to date have been federally charged in relation to the months of violent #antifa & BLM riots in Portland. Some of the violent suspects are charged w/arson, which carries a 5-year minimum sentence.
Sami Horner is a militant antifa in Seattle. The local media won't report this though. If he had far-right views, they would. By design, this creates a public perception that there is no evidence for antifa in the riots. Evidence: https://t.co/JWDooAGZW6https://t.co/yFJIxsKyvIhttps://t.co/lQxvP0MyYa

...Uncle Sugar don't play.
Which leads to some thoughts, however. In the event of a change of Administrations, we could very well see this reversed; that is, people legitimately defending themselves and their property being hauled up on Federal charges, not to mention charges being dropped against rioters.
And not that the New Progressive Feds(TM) would care, but that might very well be the proverbial straw.

We've seen several of these mugs before. "Riley" gets around. So does "Jackalyn."
[Rudaw] Two kidnapped Kurdish brothers were found dead in Khanaqin, Diyala province on Thursday shortly after being kidnapped by button men, confirmed a local official, adding the fate of another person remains unknown.
"On Wednesday night at 9:40pm on the Dakai Nuri Mikail village, a number of unidentified gunnies, just 100 meters from an Iraqi army security checkpoint stopped and then set alight two trucks, killing one of the drivers, an Arab, right there and the fate of the other driver is unknown as of yet," Brig Gen. Shamal Abdulrahman, director of Asayesh (security) in the town of Koks, Khanaqin, told Rudaw.
Dakai Nuri Mikail is a Kurdish-inhabited village, situated southwest of Khanaqin city.
Abdulrahman added the trucks were on their way to take chicks to a poultry farm in the vicinity of the village.
"The incident happened close to the chicken farm. The owners of the farm, two brothers named Luqman Dawood and Saman Dawood rushed to the scene in order to extinguish the flames. At that point, they were ambushed by the murderous Moslems, who kidnapped them," he explained.
"The bodies of the two brothers were discovered today near the location where they were kidnapped."
Brig. Diyar Shawkat, head of Khanaqin police, attributes the attacks to ISIS murderous Moslems.
"The ISISDeath Eaters had established a fake checkpoint last night on the road," Shawkat said.
ISIS has not claimed the killings, but the group is active in the area disputed between Erbil and Baghdad.
Khanaqin, in Diyala province, was under administration of the Kurdistan Regional Government until the events of October 2017, when Baghdad sent federal forces to take over the disputed areas.
The deterioration of Khanaqin's security situation has previously been denounced by the residents, who have staged strikes demanding the return of the Kurdistan Region’s Peshmerga.
Many Kurdish families have left the city due to the gaps in security.

"During his initial investigation, he admitted that he provided information on the movements and locations of the security forces and Peshmerga forces [to ISIS] in exchange for money," added the statement.
