[All Africa] To counter violent mostly peaceful extremism in places such as Mozambique's Cabo Delgado properly, it's necessary to understand the root causes of such conflicts and how mining operations can worsen them
Since October 2017, Cabo Delgado province in northern Mozambique has been the site of an escalating insurgency, led by Islamist hard boy group Ahlu Sunnah Wal Jammah (ASWJ), which has claimed the lives of about 1,500 people and displaced 310,000.
On August 12 Lions of Islam captured the port of Mocímboa da Praia, 60km south of the Afungi peninsula, where major liquid natural gas (LNG) export facilities are being developed for offshore reservoirs, reviving concerns about the effect of the conflict on LNG projects.

[Jpost] Microsoft Corp said on Wednesday that it detected and attempted to stop a series of cyberattacks from Phosphorus, which the company described as an 'Iranian actor', with the attacks aimed to target over 100 high-profile individuals.
"Phosphorus, an Iranian actor, has targeted with this scheme potential attendees of the upcoming Munich Security Conference and the Think 20 (T20) Summit in 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... ," Microsoft said in a blog, adding it believed Phosphorus is engaging in these attacks for intelligence collection purposes.

Why aren't there mostly peaceful protests by the people of Kenosha against their DA and Police Department who passively observed parts of their city being vandalized and burned down and who are now actively persecuting Rittenhouse for interfering with these terror attacks?

I agree, though I can't think of a reason to prevent extradition other than contesting every step in the process; what the lawyers are supposed to do.

RIGHT! (Rolls eyes)
That's the way it looks from your balcony across from Central Park. More wokefulness from the elites. Listen to your betters, little man. Yada!Yada!Yada!Yada!Yada!
[IsraelTimes] In move seen by some as precursor to future West Bank annexation, Washington removes geographic restrictions from three 1970s science cooperation agreements.
Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ...aka Abu Mazen, a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial. While no Yasser Arafat, he has his own brand of evil, just a little more lowercase.... on Wednesday condemned the US-Israel agreement to extend scientific cooperation to areas captured by Israel in the 1967 Six Day War, describing it as a first step toward American recognition of Israeli illusory sovereignty in the West Bank.
"This is a dangerous and unacceptable precedent, which we cannot stay silent," Abbas’s official spokesperson Nabil Abu Rudeineh said in a statement.
"We reject this American policy which attempts to help Israel consolidate its occupation of Paleostinian lands. None of these policies will give any legitimacy to anyone. The settlements will one day disappear," Abu Rudeineh added.
Israel and the US on Wednesday signed an agreement that removed all previous geographic restrictions from their scientific cooperation, a move that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called "a victory over all the organizations and countries that boycott Judea and Samaria," using the Biblical term for the West Bank.
During a festive ceremony at Ariel University in the heart of the West Bank, Netanyahu and US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman signed a protocol that amended three 1970s agreements that form the basis for bilateral scientific cooperation.
Those agreements had stipulated that cooperative projects "may not be conducted in geographical areas which came under the administration of the State of Israel after June 5, 1967, and may not relate to subjects primarily pertinent to such areas."
The Paleostinian Liberation Organization said in response to the move that "banning settlement products and services and taking action on companies operating in occupied Paleostine is an international community’s obligation to stop Israeli settlements."
The PLO added that "attempts by the Trump administration to normalize [settlemetnts], as clearly stated in their annexation plan (the so-called Peace to Prosperity plan), are an encouragement for Israel to perpetuate its control over the land and the people of Paleostine and deny them their inalienable right to self-determination."
Senior PLO official Hanan Ashrawi said the move was "a clear recognition of Israel’s annexation of Paleostinian territory," and that it "upgrades the Trump administration’s involvement in Israeli war crimes to active and willful participation."
Under President Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... , the US has recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and Israeli illusory sovereignty over the Golan. It has also reversed Washington’s longstanding position on West Bank settlements, arguing they are not necessarily violating international law.
"Plainly, this geographic restriction within these three agreements was an anachronism," Friedman said at Wednesday’s ceremony. "We are righting an old wrong, and we are strengthening yet again the unbreakable bond between our two countries."
The ambassador stressed that the US and Israel will continue to fund projects based on quality but will no longer refuse support for researchers because of their postal code. "We are depoliticizing a process that should never have been politicized in the first place," he said.
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Malaysia's former prime minister said that Moslems have the right 'to kill millions of French people', shortly after a knife-wielding Islamist killed three people in a deadly terror attack in Nice.
Mahathir Mohamad, who lost power in February this year, said freedom of expression does not include 'insulting other people' as fury over satirical cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed sweeps the Islamic world.
The 95-year-old politician said he did not approve of the beheading of a French school teacher for sharing caricatures of the Prophet, but said: 'Irrespective of the religion professed, angry people kill'.
'The French in the course of their history [have] killed millions of people. Many were Moslems,' he said in a tweet which has since been removed for violating the website's rules.
Mahathir, who has drawn controversy for comments about Jews and LGBT people in the past, went on: 'Moslems have a right to be angry and to kill millions of French people for the massacres of the past.'
The Malaysian politician said that 'by and large', Moslems have not applied the principle of 'eye for an eye': 'Moslems don't. The French shouldn't. Instead the French should teach their people to respect other people's feelings'.
Mahathir, who served as Malaysian premier twice for a total of 24 years, said that French President Emmanuel Macron was 'very primitive' and 'not showing that he is civilised'.
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison slammed Mahathir's remarks, calling them 'absurd and abhorrent' as ge paid tribute to the victims of the terror attack in southern La Belle France.
'The only thing that should be said today is to completely condemn those attacks. The only response is to be utterly, utterly devastated,' Mr Morrison told 2GB radio on Friday morning.
La Belle France's digital minister demanded that Twitter also ban Mahathir from its platform, with Cedric O saying he told the managing director of the social media giant in La Belle France that his account 'must be immediately suspended.'
The former Prime Minister made no direct reference to the attack in a church in Nice, but his comments come amid fury across the Islamic world at President Emmanuel Macron for defending caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed, and on the day that Sunni Moslems mark the Prophet's birthday.

You know, if France wanted to regain some prominence, this is the opportunity. They can repeat St. Bartholomew's Day massacre only with muslims playing the Huguenots.
[IsraelTimes] New images show road has been built; analysts believe new facility to be built inside mountains, months after reported sabotage
Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... has begun construction at its Natanz nuclear facility, satellite images released Wednesday showed, just as the UN’s nuclear agency acknowledged Tehran was building an underground advanced centrifuge assembly plant after its last one went kaboom! in a reported sabotage attack last summer.
