Arabia
Oxfam Says 1 Civilian Killed Every 3 Hours in Yemen
[An Nahar] A civilian is killed every three hours in Yemen, Oxfam said Friday, calling on the United States, Britannia and other European states to suspend arms sales to 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...
.

"One civilian has been killed every three hours in fighting in Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic...
since the beginning of August, with many more people succumbing to disease and hunger," Oxfam said in a statement.

Citing data collected by the Civilian Impact Monitoring Project, linked to the United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
global protection clusters, the aid group said 575 non-combatants were killed between August 1 and October 15, including 136 children.

"Oxfam is calling on the UK, U.S. and other governments to suspend arms sales to the Saudis because of their disregard for civilian lives in the war in Yemen," read the Oxfam statement.

Saudi Arabia leads a pro-government military alliance that has battled Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis since 2015, pushing the impoverished country to the brink of famine.

The U.N. categorizes Yemen as the world's worst humanitarian crisis, warning Tuesday that 14 million people now face a serious threat of famine.

Following the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi -- the Washington Post columnist and Saudi critic killed in his country's Istanbul consulate this month -- rights and aid groups have urged Western states to suspend arms sales to Saudi Arabia.

UN trying to discover origin of arms found off Yemen coast
[PULSE.NG] UN experts are working to establish the origin of a weapons shipment seized off of Yemen's coast by a US Navy vessel, the United Nations
...the Oyster Bay money pit...
said Friday.

"UN experts with responsibilities in the area have carried out an inspection of the weapons seized and will report to their respective Security Council Sanctions Committees in due course," a UN front man said.

The Washington Post had earlier reported that the stash of some 2,500 Kalashnikov assault rifles was seized in late August in the Gulf of Aden, off of Yemen's southern coast. The newspaper, which had a news hound aboard the US navy vessel, did not identify the ship carrying the arms.

The United States has repeatedly accused Iran of providing military aid to Yemen's Houthis, who in 2015 forced the Saudi-backed Yemeni government out of the capital Sanaa and into the southern part of the country.

Tehran says it has only provided political backing to the Iranian catspaws. The UN has identified missiles used by the Huthis as Iranian-made, but has not established proof that Tehran delivered them.

The war has left more than 10,000 people dead since it broke out three years ago, according to UN figures.

Caucasus/Russia/Central Asia
Russia Upholds Torture Convictions against Senior Officers
[An Nahar] A military court has upheld murder and torture convictions against senior security and coppers from Russia's North Caucasus, a rights activist said Friday, in what he described as rare ruling.

A military tribunal upheld the convictions on Thursday "for one killing, the use of violence (and) extortion" in the region of Ingushetia, Pavel Chikov of Agora told AFP.

The sentences, which ran to up to 10 years in prison, were against interior ministry officers and an FSB security service officer in Ingushetia, including the head of the counter-extremism center there.

"Six people received actual jail sentences including an officer from the FSB," while one police officer got a suspended sentence, said Chikov.

"It's the first such sentence concerning senior management in a counter-extremism center in Russia. And it's the first case over torture in an counter-extremism center in Russia," he added.

"Up to now, this branch of the interior ministry was considered untouchable," he said.

The officers were convicted of using electric shocks and other torture techniques to force confessions from detainees in the mainly-Moslem region.

One of their victims, a 50-year-old man, suffocated to death during interrogation, the RIA Novosti state news agency reported.

The officers also forced victims to hand over money and even a car by threatening to spread compromising information about them.

A military tribunal in the southern Russian city of Rostov-on-Don threw out an appeal against the sentences for the former officers, first convicted in July.

The head of Ingushetia's counter-extremism center of the interior ministry received seven years in jail.

One of his subordinates ranked major received 10 years, and an FSB officer in counter-terrorism received a five-year sentence, Pravo.ru legal news agency said.

The Grand Turk
Saudi officials who killed Jamal Khashoggi must reveal location of body: Erdogan
[DAWN] The Saudi officials who killed journalist Jamal Khashoggi in their Istanbul consulate must reveal the location of his body, The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund....
's president said on Friday in remarks that were sharply critical of the kingdom's handling of the case.

President Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey...
also said 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...
's chief prosecutor will arrive in Turkey on Sunday as part of the investigation and will meet with Ottoman Turkish counterparts.

On Thursday, Saudi prosecutors said Khashoggi's killing was premeditated, citing Ottoman Turkish evidence and changing the country's account again to try to ease international outrage over the slaying of a prominent critic of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman
...Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia as of 2016....
.

Turkey has other "information and evidence" about the killing by Saudi officials after Khashoggi entered the consulate on Oct 2, and it will eventually reveal that information, Erdogan said without elaborating.

"There is no point in being too hasty," he said in an indication that Turkey is prepared to maintain pressure on Saudi Arabia, even as the kingdom struggles for ways to end the crisis.

Turkey Wants 18 Saudis Extradited over Khashoggi Murder
[An Nahar] The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...Qatar's colony in Asia Minor....
on Friday said it wanted 18 Saudis extradited over the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, as President Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey...
said Ankara still had more evidence to reveal in the case.

The announcement came a day after the Saudi prosecutor said that based on evidence supplied by Turkey the murder appeared to have been premeditated -- the first time Saudi authorities had made such an admission.

In a speech in Ankara, Erdogan said 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...
's chief prosecutor would visit Istanbul on Sunday to speak to Ottoman Turkish authorities as part of the investigation.

Saudi authorities earlier jugged
Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try!
18 men wanted by Ankara following an international furore over the death of Khashoggi, a Washington Post contributor and critic of Saudi policies, who was killed at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on October 2.

The killing has tainted the image of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman
...Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia as of 2016....
, who has positioned himself as a Saudi reformer, and tested ties between Washington and Riyadh as Western powers demand answers over Khashoggi's death.

A written request for the extradition of the 18 suspects had been prepared by Istanbul's chief prosecutor.

"It is clear that the judicial system in Turkey is better equipped to genuinely serve the cause of justice in this case," a senior Ottoman Turkish official said, because Khashoggi was "murdered in Turkey by Saudi nationals who traveled to Turkey for this specific purpose".

Erdogan on Friday called on Riyadh to reveal who ordered the killing and the whereabouts of Khashoggi's body.

"You need to show this body," Erdogan said.

The Ottoman Turkish president, who has stopped short of directly blaming the Saudi government, said that the 18 suspects must know who killed Khashoggi and repeated his call for the men to be tried in Turkey.

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Israel PM makes secret Oman visit
[PULSE.NG] Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made an unannounced visit to Oman, an Arab state with which Israel has no diplomatic ties, and met with Sultan Qaboos, the premier's office said Friday.

The two leaders discussed the Middle East grinding of the peace processor "and other issues of shared interest", it said in a statement released after Netanyahu returned from the first such visit by an Israeli premier for more than two decades.

Netanyahu was accompanied by his wife Sara and his delegation included Mossad intelligence chief Yossi Cohen and National Security Advisor Meir Ben-Shabbat.

The visit came at the invitation of Sultan Qaboos and followed "lengthy contacts between the two countries", the statement said.

It formed part of "the policy outlined by Prime Minister Netanyahu on deepening relations with the states of the region", it said.

In 1994, then-Israeli premier Yitzhak Rabin visited Oman, and acting prime minister Shimon Peres also made a visit in 1996 and the two countries agreed to open trade representative offices.

In October 2000, Oman closed the offices after the outbreak of the second Paleostinian intifada.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Leaders of Russia, Germany, France, Turkey to discuss Syrian settlement in Istanbul
[TASS] MOSCOW, October 27. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin will arrive in Instanbul on Saturday to participate in the quadrilateral summit on Syrian settlement along with French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The leaders will gather in this format for the first time. Such a format is not conceived as an alternative to other consultations on Syria, but will instead allow to compare positions on the solution of the common problem - restoration of peace and stability in Syria.

UN Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura, who will leave his post at the end of November, will also arrive in Istanbul on Saturday to brief the participants in the summit on the recent developments. De Mistura said earlier that he wants to remind the four leaders that after localizing the problem in Idlib, an international consensus is necessary to support UN actions on establishing a constitutional committee.

The Turkish president was the first to come forward with a proposal to hold a quadrilateral summit. Russia supported this initiative. In mid-September, aides on international issues to the leaders of Russia, Germany, Turkey and France met to discuss the substantive part of the summit.

Hezbollah fighting to prevent Zionist terrorists from overrunning Mideast: Scholar
[PRESSTV] Hezbollah is an anti-terror group which is fighting to prevent the Zionist Death Eaters from continuing to overrun the territory that does not belong to them in the Middle East, an American scholar says.

Kevin Barrett, an author, journalist and radio host with a Ph.D. in Islamic and Arabic Studies, made the remarks in an interview with Press TV on Friday after the Trump administration imposed a new round of sanctions on the Lebanese resistance movement.

The sanctions targeted individuals and international organizations that do business with the group.

Trump signed the sanctions legislation ‐ known as the Hezbollah International Financing Prevention Amendments Act 2018 ‐ against the resistance group on Thursday.

Damascus Rejects U.N. Plan on Constitution Committee
[An Nahar] A United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
plan to end the seven-year civil war in Syria has run aground after Damascus blocked the world body's proposal for a committee to draft a new constitution, provoking anger among western powers.

U.N. special envoy Staffan de Mistura has been working since January on forming a group of 150 members to thrash out a new constitution, seen as a first step to winding down a conflict that has cost more than 360,000 lives.

Under the U.N. plan, the Syrian regime would choose 50 of the committee members, the Syrian opposition another 50 and the U.N. would nominate the final 50, composed of representatives of civil society and technical experts.

De Mistura, a veteran Italian-Swedish diplomat due to step down next month, said Friday that Foreign Minister Walid Muallem rejected the last list of UN-proposed names and suggested his own method to the final 50 members during talks in Damascus this week.

"Walid Muallem didn't accept a role for the U.N. in identifying or selecting a third list," the envoy told the U.N. Security Council by video conference during an emergency session called by the United States.

"Rather, Mr Muallem indicated that the governments of Syria and Russia had agreed recently that the three Astana guarantors (Iran, Russia and The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...Qatar's colony in Asia Minor....
) and the Syrian government would in consultations among them prepare a proposal as regards the third list."

De Mistura said withdrawing the U.N. list was only possible "if there was an agreement on a new credible, balanced and inclusive list" that complied with U.N. resolutions and commitments made in January talks in the Russian resort town of Sochi.

German ISIS 'shoemaker' pleads to come home from Syria

Terror Networks
Foreign ISIS fighters must face prosecution for Yezidi genocide: report
[Rudaw] ISIS bully boys, especially imported muscle, must be prosecuted on genocide and sex crime charges in order to bring justice to Yezidis, a new report stated, condemning prosecution thus far that have been relied on anti-terror laws.

"The focus should be on ensuring effective criminal investigations and prosecutions, where the rights of Yezidi victims to truth, justice and reparation can be fully addressed," read the report from the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) and Kinyat, an organization that documents crimes against Yezidis.

"As history has shown, this is the only way to ensure effective guarantees of non-repetition for the gravest crimes," read the report that was published Thursday.

The report singles out the need to prosecute imported muscle in national and international courts "on charges of sexual crimes amounting to genocide and crimes against humanity."

These crimes were "carefully planned, institutionalized and highly organized" by ISIS with imported muscle playing a major role.

FIDH and Kinyat, speaking with Yezidi survivors, documented that the women were "gifted or bought" to fighters from the nations of 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...
, Libya, Tunisia, Leb, Jordan, Paleostine, Yemen, La Belle France, Germany, USA, and China.

The Yezidi women were actually used by ISIS as a propaganda tool to attract foreigners to their cause, the organizations concluded.

To date, prosecution efforts have been largely limited to terror-related offenses.

In northern Syria, Kurds have as many as 900 imported muscle in their custody, but their governments don’t want to take them back. The Kurds, who have established courts to try local ISIS members, have refused to prosecute the foreigners.

In Iraq, more than 300 ISIS suspects have been sentenced to death and hundreds more to life in prison. The crimes of genocide and sexual violence in conflict are not enshrined in Iraqi law, meaning the cases have been focused on terror charges. Iraq’s judicial authorities have been criticized for rushing the process.

"These legitimate concerns about security should not overshadow the exceptional gravity of atrocities committed by ISIS [ISIS] fighters, who must also be tried on international crimes charges," the report stated.

"By pursuing international crimes charges, judicial authorities are faced with the need to investigate the crimes perpetrated against the civilian population during the occupation of cities and villages and thus play a central role in helping to deliver justice for victims."

US military successfully tests anti-ballistic missile off coast of Hawaii
[PRESSTV] The US military says it has successfully tested a key missile system off the west coast of Hawaii, shooting down a medium-range ballistic missile.

On Friday, sailors aboard the USS John Finn successfully detected, tracked and targeted the rocket with an SM-3 Block IIA missile, the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) said.

The missile, which is part of the Aegis system, is designed to increase the US military’s capacity to knock down intercontinental ballistic missiles.

The new system is being developed in a joint venture between arms giant Raytheon and Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd.

In January, the MDA said the US had spent about $2.2 billion on the system, while Japan spent around $1 billion. However,
the man who has no enemies isn't anybody and has never done anything...
it did not immediately confirm if those figures had gone up.

This test comes after two failed intercept tests, in June 2017 and January 2018, and one successful one in February 2017.

MDA Director Lieutenant General Sam Greaves said, "This was a superb accomplishment and key milestone for the SM-3 Block IIA return to flight."

Speaking on condition of anonymity, one US official said the system would attempt to intercept an intermediate-range missile in the coming months.

In August, the Pentagon was authorized to pursue more options for what Washington said defeating US-bound North Korean missiles through using radar and more missiles.

This is happening despite moves Pyongyang has been taking toward denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula following a summit between President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
and North Koran leader Kim Pudge Jong-un
...the overweight, pouty-looking hereditary potentate of North Korea. Pudge appears to believe in his own divinity, but has yet to produce any loaves and fishes, so his subjects remain malnourished...
in Singapore, during which the two leaders agreed to work toward denuclearization.
