77 takfiri elements killed, 7 army personnel 'killed or injured' in Sinai raids: Egypt's armed forces
[AlAhram] The operations were carried out between 22 July and 30 August.

Egypt's armed forces have killed 77 terrorist elements during various raids in the last few weeks, the country’s military front man said on Sunday, adding that the operations had led to the death or injury of seven army personnel.

A video statement on the front man's Facebook page said the army had killed 73 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...
s in raids in North Sinai and had destroyed 317 hideouts and stores which the terrorist elements had used as shelters and ammunition warehouses.

Ten four-wheel drive vehicles were destroyed during the raid.

Other operations were carried out and resulted in the death of two "extremely dangerous" holy warriors who were found in possession of two rifles, five magazines, and an boom belt.

Two other takfiris were killed and another one was maimed, the statement said.

Four rifles, six magazines and large quantities of ammunition, explosives, a cycle of violence, three water lifting machines, and sums of money were found in their possession, according to the front man.

The injured terrorist is receiving medical treatment at a military hospital and is being interrogated.
”Send for the No. 7 pliers, coffee and biscuits, and the large barrel of mustache wax, Sgt.Mahmoud.”
“Yes, effendi. And an extra cushion for your chair, I think — it’s going to be a long night.”
The statement also said that the air forces had destroyed nine four-wheel drive vehicles loaded with weapons and ammunition that were on their way to illegally cross the western borders.

"This coincides with the intensification of the naval forces' work of mopping-up and inspection of the operation area of the Mediterranean and Red Sea to secure economic objectives and secure the coastal strip against any threats, in addition to activating maritime security measures within our territorial waters," the statement added.

"As a result of the valiant combating operations, three officers and four soldiers were martyred or injured," read the statement.

Africa Subsaharan
Ten militants and five civilians killed in east Congo violence: army, local leader
[EN.ALGHADEER.TV] Ten Islamist forces of Evil were killed after they ambushed an army convoy in eastern Congo on Friday, according to the military, while a community leader said five non-combatants were killed by members of the same rebel group soon after.The Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), a Ugandan gang operating in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo
...formerly the Congo Free State, Belgian Congo, Zaire, and who knows what else, not to be confused with the Brazzaville Congo aka Republic of Congo, which is much smaller and much more (for Africa) stable. DRC gave the world Patrice Lumumba and Joseph Mobutu, followed by years of tedious civil war. Its principle industry seems to be the production of corpses. With a population of about 74 million it has lots of raw material...
for more than three decades, has killed more than 1,000 civilians since the start of 2019, according to United Nations
...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships...
figures.

The latest violence saw six Congolese soldiers maimed in festivities with the forces of Evil following the ambush near the town of Mbau, army front man Antony Mwalushayi said on Sunday.

"Two ADF fell on the spot. In the evening after we secured the area, we discovered another eight," he said, referring to the holy warrior casualties.

Not long after the ambush, members of the same ADF group killed five civilians near Mbau, including three women, and took a few hostages, according to Mathe Esdras, head of the local youth council. Rooters could not independently verify his report.

The army launched a large offensive against the ADF late last year, sparking a violent mostly peaceful backlash against civilians.

The insecurity has forced hundreds of thousands to flee their homes and complicated Congo’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic as well as an Ebola epidemic that has killed more than 2,200 people.

Several attacks attributed to the ADF have also been claimed by Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
, although researchers and analysts say there is a lack of hard evidence linking the two groups.

Belgian Firefighters Lured Into No-Go Zone and Attacked
[Breitbart] A group of firefighters was attacked in the multicultural Brussels no-go zone of Molenbeek after allegedly being lured to the area for a deliberate ambush.

The alleged ambush took place late Wednesday night into early Thursday morning after the firefighters were called to deal with an incident of a large dumpster that had been set on fire on the Mahatma Gandhi Avenue.

Walter Derieuw, a member of the local fire department, described the scene, saying: "The street was partially blocked by waste containers, one of which was ablaze."

"As we approached the fire, our fire truck was suddenly pelted with glass bottles. They were thrown at us by people standing on the roof of a building. Projectiles were also thrown during the extinguishing," he told newspaper Nieuwsblad.

Derieuw suggested the attack had been a planned ambush, saying: "We wonder if we were not deliberately lured on the spot in order to attack us."
Not that they actually wonder, but it wouldn’t do to express certainty.
According to local police, the incident is not the first ambush attack on firefighters in the Belgian and EU capital.

Molenbeek itself has become internationally infamous due to the high levels of radical Islamic activity over the years, with La Belle France’s deadliest Islamic terrorist attack, the Bataclan massacre, being linked to the area.

One of the Bataclan attackers, Salah Abdeslam, hid in Molenbeek for months before police were finally able to take him into custody.

Earlier this year, the area came into headlines again during the Wuhan virus outbreak, when several local youths in the area were arrested after spitting on the door handles of police vehicles in an effort to infect officers.

Attacks on firefighters in neighbouring La Belle France have become common in recent years as well. In July of this year a firefighter was even hit by a gunshot while responding to a fire in the commune of Etampes.

French union official Jean-Christophe Cantot commented on the growing trend of violence, warning that "The attacks we are experiencing are getting more and more violent mostly peaceful.”
Sure. As the Reconquest approaches, the brave reconquering Lions of Islam must demonstrate their participation for the glory of Allah... by throwing stuff at their dhimmi targets from nearby roofs.

Portland roundup: Mayor @tedwheeler blames violence and homicide on Pres Trump, so does Gov Kate Brown
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]



PJ Media adds:
Jay Bishop, whose real name was Aaron Danielson, was a member of Patriot Prayer, a conservative protest group. The group’s Facebook page says that they’re “about fighting corruption, big government, and tyranny using God for strength and the power of love.”

The media generally refer to Patriot Prayer as “a far-right” organization.

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown Blames Trump for Violence After Trump Supporter Killed in Portland.
[Breitbart] Oregon Gov. Kate Brown (D) issued a statement on Sunday blaming President Donald Trump for the violence seen across American cities, particularly in Portland, after a Trump supporter was shot and killed.

Brown’s comments came after months of inaction by local authorities to wrangle violent protests across the city of Portland under Mayor Ted Wheeler.

“For the last several years, and escalating in recent months, President Trump has encouraged division and stoked violence,” Brown said. “It happened in Charlottesville. It happened in Kenosha. And now, unfortunately, it is happening in Portland, Oregon.”

“But despite the President’s jeers and tweets, this is a matter of life and death,” Brown added. “Whether it’s his completely incompetent response to the pandemic, where nearly 200,000 have died, or his outright encouragement of violence in our streets: it should be clear to everyone by now that no one is truly safe with Donald Trump as President.”

Brown continued, noting that she has “supported” peaceful protests in the state.

“Throughout this pandemic, whether it was demonstrations protesting my COVID-19 executive orders, or large crowds marching for the cause of Black Lives Matter to call for police reform, I have supported the rights of all Oregonians to peacefully protest.”

“For months this summer, we have seen powerful images of Oregonians uniting for the cause of racial justice, calling for justice for black men and women who have been killed by police violence,” Brown stated. “We remember them, we say their names. George Floyd. Breonna Taylor. Ahmaud Arbery. Philando Castile. Alton Sterling. And far too many other Black lives taken by racist violence.”

“For weeks, we have also seen small groups of demonstrators from all ends of the political spectrum who are intent on committing acts of vandalism and violence,” Brown continued.

Brown concluded her anti-Trump message by claiming the state would find who was “responsible” for the murder and hold them “accountable.”

“Tragically, yesterday a life was lost in downtown Portland,” Brown added. “We do not yet know the full circumstances of this person’s death. Regardless, a life has been lost, and our hearts go out to this person’s family. We will find those who were responsible, and they will be held accountable.”

Since the death of George Floyd, Portland has become a hot spot for violent crime, including the burning and looting of buildings, the tearing down of statues and monuments, and various shootings.

Police in Portland have been left to fend for themselves with little to no backing from state or local officials.

Protests across Portland for the past few months have been mostly anti-police. One group took to the streets to burn the American flag and copies of the Bible. Another group set ablaze a severed pig’s head, donned with a cop hat sitting atop an American flag.

Hagedorn found “usable amounts of marijuana and unidentified prescription pills” in the Cadillac. He also found a loaded, concealed Glock pistol for which Reinoehl did not have a concealed handgun license.

Reinoehl’s 11-year-old daughter was riding in the Cadillac, which resulted in the recklessly endangering another person charge.

#5  FFS, they don't encourage the violence, they openly support and provide the environment by which it succeeds. not pursuing this murder, Wheeler has put a death sentence on every Trump supporter who dares enter his little Antifastan and that's exactly his point. They think they can declare war on the populace and cow them. No fokkin way. Portland will be very busy until election day. They have made themselves Ground Zero and that will be their undoing.

#8  Hugh Hewitt, Salem Radio, just interviewed an Oakland police officer who said it is the city mayors who are in charge of the police are responsible for what they allow or don't allow to happen.

Iraq
Four ISIS suspects arrested in Sulaimani in July: statement
[Rudaw] Sulaimani security forces announced on Sunday they arrested four Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) suspects in separate raids across the province in mid-July.

The arrests were made based on information and precise monitoring of the suspects' movements, according to the announcement from the Asayesh (security forces) of Garmiyan region in southern Sulaimani province.

The first arrest was made by the Garmiyan Asayesh on July 13 in the town of Sarqala. The second was made in coordination between Garmiyan Asayesh and Sulaimani Asayesh Operation Forces in the same region.

A third suspect was detained in Raniya and the final arrest took place on July 20 in Sarqala.

The ISIS suspects have "confessed to committing many crimes against humanity," according to the Garmiyan Asayesh statement.

In excerpts of their confessions that have been made public, two of the men said they fought for ISIS in Uzem, south of Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
and a third said he fought for the group in Hawija. The fourth said he provided logistic support for ISIS holy warriors in several locations in Iraq.

This is the third such operation reported within the Kurdistan Region this month. Last week counter-terror forces in Erbil captured an ISIS "terrorist" in a raid. Sulaimani Asayesh arrested six suspected ISIS holy warriors in two raids in and around the town of Chamchamal on August 4 and 5.

Gun smugglers found with 20-year-old stolen weapon
[Jpost] Border crossing officials on Sunday prevented two people from smuggling a gun into Israel from the West Bank at a border crossing in the south Hebron hills, the Defense Ministry said in a statement.

The two attempted smugglers were residents of Kassifa, aged 18 and 21, who came from the Paleostinian Authority-administered West Bank. An inspection of their vehicle found a Smith & Wesson pistol that had been stolen from the home of an Israeli citizen in 2000.

Both suspects were taken in for questioning.

This is the third such weapon seizure to happen in the last three days. Last weekend, Defense Ministry inspectors stopped two attempts at smuggling weapons. The first attempt last Thursday saw an Arab-Israeli from Sakhlin and a Paleostinian resident of Jenin attempt to smuggle 10,000 rounds of 5.56 mm rifle ammunition in 10 IDF boxes through the Reihan crossing, though the ammunition was later confiscated.

The second attempt saw border crossing security officials prevent the smuggling of an additional 300 rounds of rifle ammunition.

Olde Tyme Religion
Uganda: Muslim converts to Christianity, is beaten to death by his father and other relatives
[JihadWatch] Those who beat Jalilu Kamutono to death aren’t "extremists." Apostasy carries the death penalty in Islamic law. This is based on the Qur’an: "They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper." (Qur’an 4:89)

A Sunni hadith depicts Muhammad saying: "Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him" (Bukhari 9.84.57). This is not just a Sunni idea; the death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law according to all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence.

Qaradawi also once famously said: "If they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn’t exist today."

"Christian Dies, Cousin in Critical Condition after Assault in Uganda," Morning Star News, August 26, 2020:

NAIROBI, Kenya (Morning Star News) – One young Christian man in eastern Uganda has died after family members beat him for leaving Islam while his cousin, also beaten, clings to life, sources said.

The Muslim fathers and other relatives of the two men in Budaka Town beat them with sticks and other blunt objects in late July before leaving them semi-conscious in a heap of banana plantation leaves, said the critically injured survivor, 23-year-old Ahmad Waisana. His 20-year-old cousin, Jalilu Kamutono, succumbed to his injuries on Aug. 5.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
8 self-defence forces killed in Rojava: SDF
[Rudaw] Eight members of a self-defence force in northeastern Syria were killed in two separate attacks this past week, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) announced on Sunday. One attacked was blamed on the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more.

(ISIS) and the other on Ottoman Turkish-backed militias, highlighting ongoing security threats in the region.

On Friday, Ottoman Turkish-backed militias attacked al-Hoshan village in the Ain Issa area and on the major highway that runs east-west across northern Syria. They targeted a station of the self-defence forces, killing four, according to an SDF statement.

At the same time to the south, an ISIS sleeper cell attacked a station of the self-defence forces in al-Dashisha, Deir ez-Zor province, killing four members of the force, the SDF stated.

The self-defence units are a conscription force in northeastern Syria. They are mainly stationed at checkpoints, in support roles, and relied on as back-up troops, rather than being posted to the frontline, according to the Rojava Information Centre.

The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
seized control of a stretch of territory along its border, from Gire Spi (Tal Abyad in Arabic) to Sari Kani (Ras al-Ayn in Arabic) last October, pushing the Kurdish-led SDF south of the highway. Ankara accuses the SDF of ties with the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and the SDF withdrew from some areas and invited Syrian regime forces to the borders in deals brokered by Washington and Moscow. Tensions remain high along the frontline between them, however.

The eastern province of Deir ez-Zor is under SDF control, but security is a problem as it borders regime-held areas and is a hotspot of ISIS activity. There has also been violence this summer between local Arab tribes and the SDF.

While ISIS is still able to carry out frequent attacks against security forces and civilian populations, the Global Coalition against ISIS believes that given the complexity and consequences of the group’s activities, indications are "that ISIS is not resurging," according to a recent Pentagon report.
