-War on Police-
'Shut up b***h!' Toddler swings at Minnesota cops executing a murder warrant in lawless St Paul where crime has soared since the killing of George Floyd
Punt!
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Disturbing footage has emerged of a toddler cursing and swinging at cops while adults in the background hurled racist slurs in St. Paul, Minnesota, where crime has soared since the killing of George Floyd in 2020.

The footage was recorded last week while police were at a home to serve a search warrant in the hunt for a murder suspect, according to local news outlet Alpha News.

The 30-second clip shows the unnamed boy standing in the street in his underwear, barefoot, screaming: 'Shut up b***h!' at a black police officer and telling him to 'shut the f**k up!'

He then turned to the other cop and made fun of his 'ugly a** shoes', while other barefoot and barely-dressed kids stood around him.
Sounds like a verbally precocious little thing. The trailing daughters couldn’t have done that at that age..
More disturbing is the commentary in the background of the video from what sounds like an adult male who called the black police officer 'Oreo head'.

It's unclear where the child's parents were, or who the subject of the murder warrant was.

Crime in the Twin Cities soared in the wake of the 2020 unrest that followed George Floyd's killing by cops, so much so that St. Paul increased its police funding in 2021.

There are now 620 sworn officers in the city of 305,877.

#4  " where crime has soared since the killing death of the criminal with multiple felony convictions called George Floyd, die from ingesting illegal drugs, all while screaming at the top of his lungs he couldn't breath while being arrested for his latest addictive drug dealing crime. Where then the Race Bait'ers, Race Pimps, Reverends for $$$$$ BLM, AntiFascist Group and other Left Wing radical used it as an opportunity to incite LSD voters to loot, pillage, commit Arson, conduct 100's of Physical Attacks on citizens and police and kill others, during the COVID-19 pandemic."

#12  The next generation of christian whites is going to regret their parents fought like crazy over abortions.

True Christians would evangelize to these communities. They might get killed for their effort but they'd do it anyway.

Having said that, the temptation must have been extremely great for that cop to take the boy over his knee and spank his little behind. It might have done the boy some good but it would have been the end of the cop's career.

#14  The Great Society, 4th generation, proof of the cancer that Lyndon Johnson and the demokrats gave America. Think about how much taxpayer money has been spent producing these multi-generational parasites and how impossible it will be to deprogram them.

At its core the whole pattern of the endless "programs" has been a smug paternalistic belief in lower expectations and consequent need for special help to compete. Objective proof that doesn't work, decade after decade, has been ignored and buried because from the onset, it has been a political motive, not a benevolent one. (look up the LBJ comment about 100 years for effect). The virtuous enabler has been the storyline for the leftist idiots who need to feel less guilty.

If you don't reward colorblind, meritocracy, and subsidize indolence, over time you get this.

Afghanistan
Recurrent Border Clashes; Taliban Forces Engage in Another Border Skirmish with the Iranian Border Guards
[KhaamaPress] Taliban
...Arabic for students...
officials in Nimruz, a southwestern province in Afghanistan contiguous to Iran, said that a "misunderstanding" between Taliban forces and Iranian border guards along the border resulted in a skirmish.

The clash, according to the Taliban local officials, occurred on Monday, 11th June, in Nimruz province’s Kang district.

While denying "severe festivities" between the Taliban forces and the Iranian border guards, the Taliban’s Department of Information and Culture of Nimruz province stated that the clash is now over, eliminating concerns.

However,
a lie repeated often enough remains a lie...
no casualty or injury is reported at this time.

At least three instances in the past month, the Taliban forces have engaged in armed confrontations with Iranian border guards.

A border skirmish at the Afghanistan-Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites....
border killed an Iranian border guard, Mohammad Sayadi, who is survived by his wife and daughter.

The Taliban forces were blamed by the media for another armed encounter with Iranian border guards, while Iranian media described the opposite side as "armed miscreants."

Since taking over in mid-August of last year, the Taliban forces have frequently instigated violent mostly peaceful armed skirmishes with the neighboring countries, particularly at the borders with Tajikistan, Iran, and Pakistain.

Caucasus/Russia/Central Asia
Stavropol resident sentenced to five years for helping militants in Syria
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[KavkazUzel] A court in Rostov-on-Don today sentenced a native of Stavropol, Razet Gardaloeva, to five years in prison for cooking food for militants in Syria, the press service of the court reported.

The Southern District Military Court sentenced Razet Gardaloyeva in the case of participation in the activities of an illegal armed group and a terrorist organization. According to the investigation and the court, in July 2015, Gardaloeva followed her husband to Syria, where she joined the illegal armed formations. She provided medical assistance to the militants, cooked food, cleaned, and took care of clothes. In October 2015, she left Syria, the press service of the court said today.

The court sentenced her to five years in prison in a penal colony, according to a message on the Telegram channel of the Southern District Military Court. 

Razet Gardaloeva, a native of the Mineralovodsky district of Stavropol, is included in the list of extremists and terrorists, follows from the information on the Rosfinmonitoring website.

The criminal case was submitted to the court on May 18, five court sessions were held, the verdict was delivered today, follows from the case file on the court website.

The "Caucasian Knot" wrote that on June 1, the Southern District Military Court  sentenced Anzor Laipanov, a resident of Stavropol Territory , to five years in prison for recruiting a minor to IS and publicly justifying terrorism.

The defense was satisfied with the sentences to the residents of Karachay-Cherkessia for justifying terrorism
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[KavkazUzel] It was decided not to appeal against the sentences of the residents of Karachay-Cherkessia Zukhra Uzdenova and Akhmed Shumakhov, as the court limited itself to a fine, their lawyers said. The repentance of those accused of justifying terrorism allows them to avoid imprisonment, they explained.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on July 7, the Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don sentenced Akhmed Shumakhov, a resident of Karachay-Cherkessia, to a fine of 350,000 rubles, finding him guilty of posting a video file and a photograph on social networks justifying terrorism. On July 5, the same court sentenced a resident of Karachay-Cherkessia, Zukhra Uzdenova, to a similar fine, also recognizing her publications on the social network as justification for terrorism.

Both Uzdenova and Shumakhov were found guilty under Part 2 of Article 205.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation "Public calls for terrorist activities, public justification of terrorism or propaganda of terrorism using the Internet", which provides for a fine of 300 thousand to a million rubles or in the amount of wages or other income convicted for a period of three to five years or five to seven years in prison.

The verdict of Zukhra Uzdenova entered into force today, she or her lawyer did not file an appeal, a representative of the Southern Military Court told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent. "Shumahov's sentence should come into force on July 19, unless an appeal is filed. There is still a week to appeal," she said.

It was decided not to appeal Uzdenova's verdict, her lawyer Pavel Sherstnev confirmed to the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.

"There was no appeal and there will not be. The state prosecution itself asked for a fine as punishment. The judge gave a fine a little less than the prosecutor's office asked for, and a little more than we asked," he said.

Punishment in the form of a fine under this article is not uncommon, the lawyer added.

"The article is drafted in such a way that it provides for up to seven years in prison or a fine. A suspended sentence under this article cannot be applied. And the judges look at the personality of the accused during the trial. If he has been previously convicted of a similar crime, if he does not repent, if he believes that he is right, posting any pictures, then in practice they more often resort to punishment in the form of real imprisonment. And if a person repents of his actions and is ready for correction, they often impose a fine," Sherstnev said, without specifying whether she repented in court his client.

Shumakhov's lawyer David Yeghiazaryan also believes that the severity of punishment depends on the personality of the accused. “If someone resists and does not repent, then this is one thing. And if a person says that he just posted what he liked in order, for example, to promote a page on Instagram, that is, when there is no direct intent to justify terrorist activities impose a fine," he told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.

According to him, Shumakhov admitted his guilt in court. “He repented of his deed. I interpreted his actions in such a way that he wanted to “hype” on the Internet, promote his account by gaining more subscribers. He took some videos or photos that were popular and posted them on his page in order to gain more likes and comments. He had no direct intention to call for terrorist activities," Yeghiazaryan said.

There was no ideology in the posts of the client, the lawyer added. "A person simply expressed his thoughts related to Islam. There was no call for violence," David Yeghiazaryan stressed.

He said that he and his client had no intentions to file an appeal. "We decided that we would not appeal. Because he received a punishment not related to deprivation of liberty," Akhmed Shumakhov's lawyer said.

India-Pakistan
Militants escape after brief gunfight in Shopian


Militants managed to escape after brief shootout with security forces in Reban Zainapora area of south Kashmir
...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....
’s Shopian district, reports said.

Quoting a top police officer, news agency GNS reported that after the initial contact was established with the hiding murderous Moslems late night on Monday, there was complete lull in firing from both sides.

The searches continued throughout the night, however no holy warrior was found at the encounter. "It seems that due to darkness forces of Evil believed to be two in number managed to escape," the officer added.

The shootout started late last night after security forces cordoned the area following a tip off.

Top ISIS Leader Killed In US Strike In Syria


On Tuesday, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) announced the killing of one of the top five Islamic State Organization (ISIS) leaders and the leader of ISIS in Syria, in a strike in northwest of Aleppo.

In a press release the CENTCOM stated, “the US Central Command Forces conducted a UAS strike outside Jindayris, northwest Syria targeting two senior ISIS officials, July 12, 2022.”

Maher al-Agal, the ISIS leader, was killed and “a senior ISIS official closely associated with Maher was seriously injured during the strike,” the press release read.

On Tuesday morning, a local source told North Press Agency that an unidentified drone targeted two individuals, who were riding a motorcycle, in the countryside of Jindires district in the Turkish-occupied city of Afrin north of Aleppo.

The two targeted individuals are militants of al-Sharqia Army, one of the armed factions affiliated with the Turkish-backed Syrian National Army (SNA), according to the source.

The CENTCOM’s statement noted that al-Agal was also responsible for “pursuing the development of ISIS networks outside of Iraq and Syria.”

“This strike reaffirms CENTCOM’s steadfast commitment to the region and the enduring defeat of ISIS,” said Col. Joe Buccino, a CENTCOM spokesperson.

“ISIS continues to represent a threat to the U.S. and partners in the region,” Buccino added.

Farhad Shami, director of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) Media Center, said that Hundreds of ISIS militants still move in the Turkish occupied Syrian areas.

No civilian casualties were reported in the strike, according to the initial information.

Opposition websites publicized that the wounded other ISIS militant also succumbed to his injuries; however, North Press did not managed to verify the news.
