[NYPOST] A female MS-13 gang member known as "Little Devil" will face trial Monday on charges she helped lure five young men into a savage 2017 ambush that left four of them dead.
Leniz Escobar, nicknamed "Diablita," is charged with coaxing the unsuspecting victims — Michael Lopez, Justin Llivicura, Jorge Tigre and Jefferson Villalobos — into a wooded area in Central Islip, where they were beaten and hacked to death by MS-13 gangsters.
MS-13, whose gang motto is “Kill, rape, control.”
Their mangled bodies were discovered near a soccer field in a Central Islip park on April 12, 2017.
A fifth victim escaped the massacre.
In a December 2019 ruling, US Circuit Judge Joseph Bianco alleged Escobar "knowingly lured the unsuspecting victims to a prearranged location in the Central Islip woods where they were murdered with machetes, knives and tree limbs."
The judge said Escobar, who was 17 at the time, was suspected of "instigating the murders, along with another juvenile female, by locating photographs of some of the victims flashing MS-13 gang signs on social media ... and then showing those photographs to MS-13 members."
Federal prosecutors called the attack "a horrific frenzy of violence" in court papers.
"Additionally, Escobar discarded the bloody clothing that she had been wearing on the night of the murders," the court filing said.
They claim Escobar was an associate of MS-13 who was trying to curry favor with the gang by luring the young men to their deaths. It’s unclear whether the victims were rival gang members or just MS-13 wannabes.
Four other MS-13 members also accused of carrying out the fatal attack are awaiting trial, while two others have been sentenced to 50 and 55 years in prison.
One of them, Jorge Portillo, who was just 15 at the time of the killing spree, pleaded guilty to charges of murder, racketeering and conspiracy in 2019.
Escobar has pleaded not guilty "Wudn't me." to the federal charges. She will be tried as an adult in federal court in Central Islip. Prosecutors said the trial is expected to take three to four weeks.
Her attorney, Jesse Siegel, told the News Agency that Dare Not be Named that "after almost five years, Ms. Escobar is looking forward to having her day in court."
MS-13, a notoriously vicious gang also known as La Mara Salvatrucha, was founded by Central American immigrants colonists in Los Angeles in the 1980s. It has since grown into a global criminal enterprise — with a stronghold in Long Island.
And thus Long Island became the epicenter of MS-13 gang killings in the U.S.

MS-13, whose gang motto is “Kill, rape, control.”
Shouldn't that be control, rape, kill unless they're into necrophilia? Ah, another milestone for the left to lower the standards of Western Civilization I guess.

I just present what I find, dear Procopius2k. I rely on you lot to put it in perspective for me. Perhaps the order was chosen for the progressive balance of K and R sounds, with the occasional L for punctuation. Or perhaps it works better in the original gutter Spanish. ;-)
[Breitbart] Laredo Sector Border Patrol agents interdicted a human smuggling incident involving a tractor-trailer. After the driver attempted to flee, agents eventually found 115 migrants, including three children, locked inside the trailer.
Laredo North Station Border Patrol agents attempted to stop a tractor-trailer traveling east toward the interstate highway on the evening of March 17. The driver failed to yield when the agent activated his emergency lights, according to information obtained from Laredo Sector Border Patrol officials.
Agents eventually stopped the driver near mile marker 10. During a search of the trailer, agents found 115 migrants loved inside with no means of escape in the event of a crash or abandonment by the human smuggler.
The 115 migrants included three unaccompanied minors. The agents identified the migrants as citizens of El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Mexico. All had no documents allowing them to legally be present in the United States.
Laredo Sector Chief Patrol Agent Carl E. Landrum tweeted photos of three smuggling attempts during this timeframe that resulted in the apprehension of 193 migrants during a 36-hour period.
The infamous leader of the Islamic State of West African Province, ISWAP, Sani Shuwaram, and other terrorists of the sect may have been killed after airstrikes hit Marte axis.
According to PRNigeria, Super Tucano jets and other aircraft of the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) executed multiple bombardments in the axis where Shuwaram's camps are located.
Shuwaram, in particular, was said to have died from gunshot wounds he had sustained when military fighter jets raided ISWAP camp at the Sabon Tumbuns general area of Lake Chad.
The news of the killing of Shuwaram was also corroborated by a highly placed intelligence source involved in the counter-insurgency operation, in the North-East who confided in PR Nigeria.
“Shuwaram was among terrorists injured by NAF air interdiction missions conducted at Sabon Tumbuns near Kirta Wulgo in February 2022. Subsequent airstrikes in the following days might have led to his death alongside other ISWAP fighters where they were receiving treatment including Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi,” the source added.
Meanwhile, it was gathered that one Mallam Bako Gorgore has been nominated as the new Wali of ISWAP to replace Shuwaram.
When contacted, NAF Spokesperson, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet who declined to confirm the death of Shuwaram said that NAF aircraft with the support of ground troops had sustained a military offensive at Tumbuns, close to Kirta Wulgo in Marte LGA within the Lake Chad Region.
Gabkwet said: “I cannot confirm the death of any leaders of terrorists. We don’t want to be dragged into making any statement or confirmation based on rumours or hearsay. Nevertheless, our troops at the frontline alongside other agencies have sustained massive strike at the hearts of terrorist leaders and their enclaves until we get this job done."
Members of the ISWAP Shura (Judicial) Council, in November 2021, appointed Shuwaram, 45, as a new Leader (Wali) in Lake Chad.
So he was only wali for five months? That’s well inside the training cycle. Well done, NAF! Give the next guy a few months before you go gunning for him, please, just to make the lost investment at the end that much more expensive.
Shuwaram was sworn by an Alkali (Judge) Bukar Arge, in a brief ceremony in KURNAWA, a remote camp in the Lake Chad Basin fringes, considered as the de-facto headquarters of ISWAP, in the Abadam Local Government Area of Borno state.

[REGNUM] At least 11 soldiers were killed and eight others were injured in a militant attack in eastern Burkina Faso. This was reported on March 21 by Reuters, citing sources in the armed forces of this African country.
However, the latter did not specify any details of the attack. It is also indicated that the government of Burkina Faso, according to the agency, did not comment on this information.
As reported, on January 23 in Burkina Faso there was a rebellion of the military, who then seized power in the country and removed the president from power, as well as dissolved governments and parliament.

Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century... -led military coalition in Yemen, have repeatedly targeted the kingdom, including state-run oil company Aramco
Top crude exporter Saudi Arabia announced a "temporary reduction" in oil output at a facility run by energy giant Aramco on Sunday, after Yemen’s Iran's Houthi sock puppets ...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 legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. 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 They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him... rebels launched multiple cross-border attacks.
A drone assault on the YASREF refinery, in the Yanbu Industrial City on the Red Sea, has "led to a temporary reduction in the refinery’s production, which will be compensated for from the inventory," the energy ministry said in a statement. There were no casualties, it added.
The statement cited a ministry official as saying two drone attacks at around 5:30 a.m. local time were launched at Yanbu’s gas plant and another on YASREF, which produces 400,000 barrels per day, according to its website.
The official condemned the attacks, saying they followed a Saturday "drone assault" on a petroleum products distribution terminal in Jizan in the south of the country.
The Iran-backed Houthis, against whom Saudi Arabia leads a military coalition in Yemen, have repeatedly targeted the kingdom, including Aramco’s sites.
The gunnies said on Sunday that they launched cross-border drone and missile attacks on the kingdom, targeting a number of "vital and important" establishments — including Aramco facilities.
The coalition, meanwhile, said it intercepted and destroyed ballistic missiles launched towards Jizan as well as nine armed drones targeting other areas in the kingdom.
"Initial investigations indicate the militia used Iranian cruise missiles that targeted al-Shaqeeq desalination plant and Aramco’s Jizan bulk plant," it said in a statement, adding other targets included a Dhahran al-Janoub power station, a gas station in Khamis Mushait, and an Aramco gas plant in Yanbu.
It said that the "hostile attacks" and scattered debris after interception caused "some material damage," without specifying which sites were damaged.
In 2019, aerial assaults on two Aramco facilities in the eastern region temporarily knocked out half of the kingdom’s crude production, underscoring the vulnerability of its infrastructure.
The latest round of attacks comes after an oil refinery in the Saudi capital Riyadh was targeted on March 10 by a drone, an operation claimed by the Houthis.
The Houthis days ago rejected an invitation from the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council to attend talks on the Yemen conflict, to be held in Riyadh between March 29 and April 7.

functionaries have been booked for for allegedly issuing death threats against the Karnataka High Court for its verdict on the Hijab row. The Jamath had recently held a public meeting in the Koripalayam area of Madurai regarding the Karnataka High Court's ruling.

[IsraelTimes] Cops allegedly attacked by several suspects after entering Paleostinian neighborhood to put out burning car; second officer slightly injured; attacker captured after fleeing scene
A police officer was moderately hurt in a suspected stabbing attack in East Jerusalem’s Ras al-Amud neighborhood on Sunday afternoon, police and medics said.
The Magen David Adom emergency service said its medics took the officer to Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center with stab wounds in his upper body.
Another officer, who was slightly hurt in his hand in the incident, was treated at the scene, MDA said.
The alleged attacker, 23, from the nearby Jabel Mukaber neighborhood, initially expeditiously departed at a goodly pace. Several hours later, police said they detained the man at the home of a relative in the adjacent neighborhood, but a man claiming to be the suspect’s brother told news hounds that he turned the suspect in.
The apparent relative also claimed that the incident was a brawl, and not a terror attack as police have charged.
The stabbing came after officers entered the Paleostinian neighborhood with firefighters to extinguish a car that was set on fire, officials said.
Police said officers were attacked by several suspects, one of whom committed the stabbing. Two men allegedly involved in the incident were also detained, police said. It was not immediately clear what sort of involvement they had.
Video from the scene showed a clash between officers and locals, but it was unclear if it was showing the arrest of the two suspects, or the attack itself.
The alleged attack came after an Israeli man was stabbed and lightly hurt when he was out jogging on Saturday morning on Jerusalem’s Hebron Road.
Video from the scene showed a clash between officers and locals, but it was unclear if it was showing the arrest of the two suspects, or the attack itself.

I hope there's a healthy ecosystem of roughneck jews out to do the same to A-rabs? Everybody needs one. I was just reading about the Lehi in some book? That's what I'm talking about.
People have just gone too soft, thanks to all this love and peace shit in the teevee and guilt mongering by the pols. CO2 powered rifles firing steel shots from roofs into passerby, sucker punches and beatdowns and and old moslem ladies pushed down stairs [ok scratch that last]. Make the bastards feel really unwelcome.
Aaahh, I know... 'shut up, Dron'. B'ezrat hashem there will come a day when y'all shall go full Samuel on 'em and none of this pansy Saul business.

The settlers — mostly modern Orthodox, some American emigrés — have been getting rougher in the West Bank, Dron. They call it Price (something). Separately, the descendants of the Jewish refugees from the Middle East/North Africa do not feel the same guilt that some of the descendants of European Jews do, and see no reason to cater to the Palestinians.... and with a higher birth rate, they are becoming the majority in Israel.
[IsraelTimes] Israeli troops arrested two suspects armed with knives as they tried to enter Israel from the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Strip, according to the military.
The Israel Defense Forces says the two were taken for questioning.

[Rudaw] An 83 year old Iranian-Australian dual national died in the notorious Evin prison in Tehran on Sunday after authorities denied him access to life-saving medication, despite repeated warnings from his family and human rights ...which are usually open to widely divergent definitions... organizations.
Imprisoned since January 2020 over financial disputes in Iran, Shokrollah Jebeli was critically ill. "I was just told my father died today. I couldn’t save him," his son, Peyman Jebeli who tweets under the "Free Shokrollah" handle, said on Sunday.
The news of Jebeli’s death comes days after two British-Iranian nationals, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Anoosheh Ashoori, were freed by Tehran in return for 530 million dollars of debt paid by the British Government.
Two days earlier, on March 18, Peyman Jebeli sounded the alarm on his father's deteriorating health but his warning fell on deaf ears in Tehran.
"Shokrollah is critically ill. He is barely able to speak. In the past 48 hours he has had a catheter administered to him ... I have been told that he refused to go to hospital despite an ambulance being called. The prison has made him sign a paper that they are not responsible if anything happens to him. He is barely conscious or coherent?" Jebeli tweeted.
"He was moved to the prison infirmary due to his condition worsening overnight. It was a very difficult night according to a person aware of his condition. He is now completely incontinent."
Rights organizations also voiced their concern regarding the state in which Jebeli found himself.
"Iranian authorities are torturing Shokrollah Jebeli ... by deliberately denying him adequate specialized medical care and withholding medication for his multiple serious health conditions," Amnesia Amnesty International said in an urgent action statement on March 14.
"In light of his age and poor health, as well as violations of his fair trial rights rendering his detention arbitrary, he must be released immediately."
Jebeli suffered from enlarged kidney stones, a history of strokes, sciatica in his legs, high blood pressure, and an umbilical hernia for which he needs surgery.
"Until January 2022, the authorities denied him all his medication; since then, they have only allowed him access to some of his medications at his own expense," Amnesty said.
