[The Algemeiner] According to Al Bawabh News, Hamas is trying to hush up a major sex scandal involving young boys in a Gaza mosque.
A prominent Hamas member is accused of engaging in sex acts with young boys after enticing them with promises of teaching them Jihad and the Quran.
According to the story, he pretended to be teaching the boys martial arts. He evaluated their "performance" and if he felt that they wouldn't resist, he would make his move. He told them that the sex acts were allowed under Islamic law if it was consensual, and he characterized the children who fell under his influence as "Mujahadeen Heroes."

Simply a lucky hit. Please do not be deterred by these infidels. Allen needs you !
[Al Ahram] Clashes erupted Friday afternoon between a group of pro-Morsi protesters and security forces in the district of Matariya in Cairo, after the protesters reportedly attempted to block traffic into one of the district's main squares.
Security forces managed to disperse the protesters into the side streets.
Matariya has for months been the scene of weekly confrontations between supporters of ousted Islamist president Mohammed Morsi and police. Twelve people died during festivities with police on 25 January.
Protests are forbidden in Egypt, unless protest organisers apply for and receive prior permission from the interior ministry.
Five pro-Morsi rallies took place in Alexandria on Friday in protest at the execution of an Islamist man who was convicted of murder.
The man, Samia Shannan, was among the 183 defendants sentenced to death on charges of storming Kerdasa cop shoppe in Giza and killing coppers there in August 2013 following the dispersal of pro-Morsi protest camps in Cairo.
Morsi supporters also organised a cycle of violence rally along the coastal highway, as well several rallies in small villages in the Damietta governorate in the Nile Delta.
Two local residents were maimed when the festivities erupted between protesters and angry local residents in one of the villages.
Residents accused the Morsi supporters of using firearms against them.

[AnNahar] Egypt arrested nine Palestinian fishermen off the coast of the Gaza Strip Friday, the fishing union said, amid tense relations between Cairo and Gaza's Islamist rulers Hamas.
"The Egyptian navy arrested nine fishermen while they were out fishing on the line between Gaza and Egypt," union official Nizar Ayesh told AFP.
They were taken ashore in Egypt and detained, he added.
A similar incident in 2013 saw five Gazan fishermen jailed for a year.
Relations have deteriorated between Egypt and Hamas, which controls the Palestinian coastal enclave, since the Egyptian army ousted Islamist president Mohamed Morsi in July that year.
And an Egyptian court declared Hamas's armed wing a terrorist group in January.
Cairo has kept the border crossing with Gaza, blockaded by Israel, almost completely shut since October, when a bombing in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula killed 30 soldiers.
Under the Israeli blockade, fishermen are allowed to trawl the waters up to six nautical miles offshore, but have complained of being fired at by the navy before they reach that limit.
A fisherman was shot dead by Israeli forces earlier this month.
Egypt accuses Hamas of supporting jihadist militants in Sinai.
The army has also created a wide buffer zone along the Gaza border aimed at preventing infiltration by militants.
In January, Egyptian border guards shot at Gazans it said had illegally crossed the border, killing a 17-year-old boy.
[AnNahar] A top Yemeni officer linked to the Shiite militia opposed to President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi escaped an liquidation bid near the southern city of Aden, a security official said Friday.
Four people were killed in an ambush on the restive Lahj ... a Yemeni governate located in the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula. It is the stomping grounds on the southern secessionist al-Harak movement -Taiz road but General Abdel Hafedh al-Sakkaf, the special forces chief in Aden, escaped unharmed, said the official from Lahj.
He said the attack took place in Al-Athawir as Sakkaf fled Aden overnight in a convoy to Lahj, on its way towards militia-held Sanaa.
"He escaped the liquidation bid but a bodyguard was rubbed out, while three others died when their vehicle overturned," said the official.
The attack came as forces loyal to Hadi tightened their control over Aden where the situation was calm early Friday after a day of deadly festivities.
Troops loyal to Hadi and their allied Popular Committees paramilitary manned checkpoints, an Agence La Belle France Presse correspondent reported.
Hadi himself had to evacuate a presidential palace in Aden on Thursday after a fighter jet opened fire, hitting a nearby hill.
The president fled house arrest last month by the Shiite Huthi militia in Sanaa and has taken refuge in Aden.
At least seven special forces fighters and four members of the Popular Committees were killed Thursday, a security sources, and 54 were maimed on the two sides.
The festivities forced the closure of Aden's airport, where Sakkaf's forces tried to seize control but were repelled by pro-Hadi troops and paramilitary.
The northern rebels overran the capital in September and have since seized control of government installations.
Yemen, a key U.S. ally in the fight against al-Qaeda, has been gripped by unrest since ex-strongman President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh ... Saleh initially took power as a strongman of North Yemen in 1977, when disco was in flower, but he didn't invite Donna Summer to the inauguration and Blondie couldn't make it... stepped down in early 2012 after a year-long popular uprising.
[ARABNEWS] A group claiming to be a Yemeni branch of 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 says it carried out a string of suicide kabooms in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, that killed a total of 137 people and injured 345 others.
The group posted an online statement saying that five jacket wallahs carried out what it described as a "blessed operation" against the "dens of the Shiites." The bombers attacked the Badr and Al-Hashoosh mosques, located across town from each other, during midday Friday prayers.
Leading Houthi ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The Yemeni government has accused the Houthis of having ties to the Iranian government, which wouldn't suprise most of us. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews ... holy man Al-Murtada bin Zayd Al-Muhatwari, the imam of the Badr mosque, was among those killed, a medical source said.
The claim, posted in an online statement, could not immediately be independently confirmed and offered no proof of an IS role. It was posted on the same website in which the Islamic State affiliate in Libya grabbed credit for Wednesday's deadly attack on a museum in Tunisia.The Houthi militia's Al-Massira television said hospitals in the capital had made urgent appeals for blood donations.Footage aired by Al-Massira showed bodies lying in pools of blood outside the mosques, as worshippers rushed the maimed to hospitals in pick-up trucks.
Another suicide bomber went kaboom! outside a mosque in the northern Houthi stronghold of Saada, a source close to the militia said.
Only the assailant was killed in that kaboom and tight security at the mosque prevented the bomber from going inside, the source added.
The Houthis overran Sanaa in September and have since tightened their grip on power.

[Ynet] Yemeni security officials say al-Qaeda's branch in the country has taken control of a southern city after security forces surrendered. The officials say that al-Qaeda hard boyz driving pickup trucks and flying black flags on Friday swept through the city of al-Houta, the capital of restive Lahj ... a Yemeni governate located in the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula. It is the stomping grounds on the southern secessionist al-Harak movement province.

Those who resisted at the governor's office were executed, the officials said. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the press.

[PJ Media] Four men have been charged with the murder of a man who was stabbed at a Coventry nightclub. They are accused of killing Daniel Kirkwood, 18, who had knife wounds to the neck and was found outside the Society Club early on Sunday. Along with Mr Kirkwood, who died in hospital, another 18-year-old man was stabbed in the back and a teenager, 17, was slashed on the arm with a knife. The four charged are due to appear before Coventry magistrates, later.
You're going to be stunned when you learn the names of the "Britons" who killed the unforgivably white Kirkwood: Names provided, but no fotos released of course. This isn't Ferguson, we're quite civilized here.
Saker Shireen Khan, 24, of Belchers Lane, Small Heath, Hasham Muqtaz Ali, 18, of Amberley Green, Great Barr, Ramez Murtaza, 20, of Bordesley Green East, Bordesley Green -- all Birmingham -- and Tobijah Thompson, 24, of no fixed address, are charged with murder and wounding.
The two other victims did not suffer life-threatening injuries.

[AnNahar] Copenhagen police said on Friday they had tossed in the calaboose ... anything you say can and will be used against you, whether you say it or not... a fifth man suspected of being an accomplice of gunman Omar El-Hussein who killed two people in deadly twin attacks last month.
The man was "suspected of complicity in the perpetrator's actions on February 14 and 15," police said in a statement.
"Like yesterday, a number of raids are being carried out in connection with the arrest," it added.
A fourth man was arrested on Thursday in a downmarket area of Copenhagen, bordering the Noerrebro neighborhood where El-Hussein lived.
Custody hearings held on Friday for the men, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were not open to the public.
The two, aged 25 and 30 respectively, faced preliminary charges of helping El-Hussein get rid of an M95 assault rifle he used outside a cultural center hosting a debate on free speech and Islam, where he rubbed out a filmmaker, tabloid Ekstra Bladet wrote.
They were also charged with helping him get rid of clothing after the attack and for providing "other equipment" for the shooting that took place a few hours later outside a synagogue, where a Jewish man was killed.
The charges, which both men deny, did not specify what type of equipment they had given him before the second attack.
Both men had ties to Brothas, a criminal gang El-Hussein had been linked to and which is based on the housing estate where he grew up.
The 30-year-old reportedly wore a red hoodie when entering the court and threw a kiss at his girlfriend, who cried when the charges were read. The 25-year old wore a black hoodie.
Two other alleged accomplices have been detained since February 16 and a third since February 27, on suspicion of helping the 22-year-old gunman obtain and dispose off weapons.

[DAWN] RAWALPINDI: Three, including two brothers, convicted in non-terrorism cases were executed at Adiala Central Jail on Thursday at dawn.
Nine others have been hanged at Adiala since the moratorium on the death penalty was lifted by the government.

According to security sources, eleven convicts were to be hanged at the central jail at Adiala, the second phase of executions currently being carried out. However, those who apply themselves too closely to little things often become incapable of great things... the execution of one of the convicts Qadeer Ahmed was halted after a reconciliation agreement between the convict and the heirs of the victim.
One more execution will be carried out after March 25.

[AnNahar] Two suspected rebels stormed a cop shoppe in Indian Kashmire on Friday, killing three officers and a civilian before being rubbed out by government forces, police said.
The heavily armed forces of Evil hijacked a private jeep and killed the driver before lobbing grenades into the station, triggering a shootout with government forces, inspector general of police for the region Danish Rana told Agence La Belle France Presse.
"Both the forces of Evil were killed in the following shootout," Rana said, adding that one police officer and two paramilitary troops were also left dead after the shoot-out.
Two other troops were maimed in the attack, the first to hit India's only Moslem-majority state since the ruling Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) took power this month in a coalition government.
Kashmire has been divided between India and Pakistain since independence from Britannia in 1947. Both claim the Himalayan territory in its entirety.
Several rebel groups have been fighting Indian forces since 1989 for independence or a merger of the territory with Pakistain.
The fighting has left tens of thousands dead, mostly civilians. Armed encounters between rebels and government forces occur regularly, though violence in the region has substantially declined during the last decade.
India blames Pakistain for arming the rebels -- a charge Islamabad denies.
No rebel group immediately grabbed credit for the attack on the cop shoppe near Kathua, 350 kilometers (220 miles) south of the state capital Srinagar.
[ARABNEWS] At least two people were killed and seven others maimed after a bomb planted on a cycle of violencewent kaboom! outside a mosque in Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center.

The blast took place in the congested Aram Bagh area of Pakistain's biggest city, outside a mosque.
Pakistain has been hit by a rising wave of sectarian violence in recent years. A police front man said two were killed in the blast and seven maimed.Saif-ud-Din, a witness, said people were coming out of the mosque after Friday prayers when there was a huge blast and many people fell to the ground.
"I was inside the mosque when the bomb went kaboom! and I saw people falling to the ground," Din told AFP.
Umer Khatab, a senior officer at the police Counter Terrorism Department, told news hounds that about two kilogrammes (4.4 pounds) of explosives were used in the bomb, which exploded with a timer. "The bomb was planted to target the people coming out of the mosque," Khatab said.
Many worshippers in bloodstained clothes gathered outside the mosque, searching for relatives. The blast destroyed the shutters of several nearby shops and shattered windows.
In a separate incident a jacket wallah on Friday evening rode a cycle of violence into a vehicle carrying paramilitary troops in the east of the city killing two paramilitary soldiers.
"A suicide bomber riding on a motorbike hit the mobile van of (paramilitary) rangers in the neighborhood of North Nazimabad killing two soldiers," senior police official Faisal Noor told AFP. He said three other soldiers in the vehicle were maimed and one was at death's door.

[AnNahar] A bombing by 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 in the city of Ramadi last week killed 13 Iraqi soldiers, defense ministry said Thursday, denying reports they died in an air strike.
The March 11 blast completely destroyed a house used by the army in Anbar historic provincial capital Ramadi, west of Baghdad, and damaged neighboring homes as well, the ministry said, announcing the results of a probe.
"The bodies of 13 of our heroic deaders were found lying at various distances from the site of the kaboom," it said, without specifying whether this was the final toll or if more might still be missing.
The blast occurred from the bottom up and there was evidence of a tunnel leading to the house, used as the headquarters of an army company, from the direction of IS lines, it said.
The ministry rejected reports that the blast was caused by an air strike, saying that neither Iraqi aircraft nor those from a U.S.-led coalition carrying out strikes against IS were active in the area at the time.
IS launched a series of 23 bombings in Ramadi that day, it said.
Anti-government fighters have held parts of Ramadi for more than 14 months.
The city has seen heavy fighting between security forces and IS, which spearheaded a sweeping offensive last June that overran large areas north and west of Baghdad.
[RUDAW.NET] 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.... faceless myrmidons in their self-proclaimed capital djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... have begun digging trenches and erecting other fortifications for the defense of the city, Iraq's defense minister has said.
''Daesh [the Arabic acronym for the Islamic State] has fortified the northern city of Mosul and started placing fortifications, some called 'Caliphate fences,' around the city for a fierce defense," said Iraq's Minister of Defense Khalid al-Obeidi.
Iraqi troops along with Shiite militias have been battling to retake the strategic city of Tikrit, the capital of Salahuddin province about 130 km north of Baghdad.
Capturing Tikrit would assist Iraqi joint forces in opening a major supply route for any future operation to retake Mosul. Military experts anticipate a tough battle for Iraq's second-largest city.
"In fact, the information I have is that most of the terrorist commanders that fled from Tikrit, Diyala and Beiji have headed towards Mosul. At the same time, the ISIS turbans' morale is not very high,'' Obeidi said.

Fences, trenches?
Meh, infiltrate some snipers, put them in high places to control main intersections, have attack copters on loiter for response at a moments notice, and insert troops as the snipers and copters do their work...deteriorate their defenses from the inside out...and oh by the way, never fight in the streets, travel by roof top and work your way down or blow holes in walls to go from building to building...the US learned that fighting in Europe in WWII, the streets are your enemy.

[IraqiNews.com] On Thursday, Security Committee in Diyala provincial council revealed that the ISIS group has relocated 233 families of its leaders, of both Arab and foreign nationalities, from Salahuddin province to the city of djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... before the beginning of 'Labbaik, Messenger of Allah' operations two days later.
Committee Chairman Sadiq al-Husseini said in an interview for IraqiNews.com, "The Committee has confirmed information that ISIS has evacuated and relocated 233 families of its Arab and foreign leaders from different parts of Salahuddin toward Mosul, before the beginning of 'Labbaik, Messenger of Allah' operations two days later."
Security sources reported that ISIS leaders of foreign nationalities had fled with their families outside the city of Tikrit on March 10th during the joint forces advance, while the organization executed its fleeing elements.
[IraqiNews.com] On Thursday, a security source in Nineveh province said, that dozens of ISIS gunnies have been either killed or injured in an air strike by the international coalition in western djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... The source informed IraqiNews, "Warplanes of the international coalition conducted three air strikes against sites for the ISIS group gunnies in the districts of Badush and al-Ba'aj, located in west of Mosul," pointing out that, "The air strike resulted in killing and injuring dozens of ISIS turbans."
[IraqiNews.com] On Thursday, Lions of Islam of the ISIS group blew up the Mar Behnam monastery which dates back to the 4th century in eastern djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... ISIS elements booby-trapped the monastery using bombs, after stealing all its contents in the district of Hamdania.
Mar Behnam monastery date back to the fourth century and was turned into the Syriac Catholics in the eighth century. It was restored and expanded in 1986.
The history of the monastery is linked to the story of Assyrian Prince Mar Behnam who converted into Christianity with his sister Sarah and 40 of his followers at the hands of the Syriac Orthodox Mar Matti. When his father King Sennacherib knew, he ordered to kill them all. He later regretted it and converted to Christianity and ordered to build the monastery to atone for his sin.
Let's hope it worked for King Sennacherib, because it looks like all that's left are the steps leading to the porch and some rubble.
[IraqiNews.com] The MP of Democratic Kurdistan Alliance, Majid Shinkali revealed that some captive Yazidi women arrived in Kurdistan Region today.

A ranking Abu Sayyaf militant was killed by his nephew, also a member of the armed group, in Talipao, Sulu last Monday. Sub-leader Khalid Sali was shot by his nephew Yasser Sahiron. The Philippine military said Sahiron opened fire at Khalid's group, killing his uncle and wounding four others.
Sahiron was convinced by Abu Sayyaf sub-leaders Furuji Indama and Hatib Hajan Sawadjaan that his uncle was a military informant.
Following the incident, Sawadjaan's group headed towards Indanan, Sulu to evade law enforcement operations launched in the area by government troops.
