[AlAhram] One of Egypt's most desperados, a former special forces officer turned Islamist krazed killer commander, has condemned President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and called for a holy war against his government.
An audio message attributed to Hisham Al-Ashmawy, who security officials suspect criminal masterminded the recent boom-mobileliquidation of Egypt's top prosecutor, said the country is "overpowered by the new pharaoh" Sisi.
Ashmawy is part of a small but highly dangerous succession of former Egyptian army officers who have joined krazed killer groups, complicating Sisi's efforts to confront what he calls an existential threat from extremism.

[ALMANAR.LB] Iraqi Vice President Nouri al-Maliki ... Former Prime Minister of Iraq and the secretary-general of the Islamic Dawa Party. Maliki imposed order on Basra wen the Shiites were going nuts, but has proven incapable of dealing with al-Qaeda's Sunni insurgency. Reelected to his third term in 2014... said Wednesday the Al Saud regime must be placed in the international community's custody for pursuing wrong policies and supporting terrorism.
In an interview with an Iraqi satellite channel, Maliki described 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... as the breeding ground of terrorism, saying Takfir extremism is rooted in the Wahabbi ideology in the Saudi kingdom.
Maliki, a former Iraqi prime minister, said the international community should intervene to prevent the spread of hard boy ideologies emanating from Saudi Arabia and put the monarchy under global supervision.
Otherwise, Maliki said, terrorism will continue to grow, fed by Saudi petrodollars.

[ALMANAR.LB] Leaders of Yemen's popular movements warned Riyadh's savage attack on their impoverished nation could end up in hundreds of missiles raining down on 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 ports and economic and energy hubs.
The Yemeni revolutionary leaders made the remarks in a presser on latest Yemeni developments in Tehran on Wednesday, where they stressed that Saudi ports and economic centers are within the range of their missiles.
"We have an option to target all important ports and economic centers of Saudi Arabia, but we have not taken this option yet," Sheikh al-Matri, a Yemeni revolutionary leader told FNA on Wednesday.
He noted that Ansarullah still has a wide range of options that it has not used, while the Riyadh government has resorted to every option that it had.
Meantime, Sadeq al-Sharafi, another Yemeni revolutionary leader, said Saudi Arabia claims to be supporting the legitimacy of a runaway president, while "the Al Saud regime itself lacks legitimacy in Saudi Arabia".
Sources revealed on Tuesday that the Yemeni army and Ansarullah popular forces have lined up behind the borders with Saudi Arabia in preparation for a possible ground battle against the Saudi regime's aggressive army.
An informed source close to Ansarullah announced that a large number of revolutionary forces and the Yemeni army's infantry units and presidential guards have deployed behind the borders with Saudi Arabia, the Arabic-language 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... Press reported.

If attacked, Russia will respond with retaliatory strikes at US missile defense installations wherever they may be in the world, Russia's former Strategic Missile Forces' commander warned on Tuesday.
"Any military facility of the US global missile shield will become a primary target of a Russian counterattack in the event of a military aggression against this country," Viktor Yesin told RIA Novosti news agency.
The deployment of US missile defenses in Europe under the pretext of protecting America's European allies against an imaginary missile attack by Iran has been a major irritant in US-Russia relations.
Washington insists the European missile shield is not aimed against Russia, but refuses to provide any legal guarantees to Moscow that its missile defense systems in Europe are not directed at Russia's strategic nuclear deterrent. O & Co project weakness in foreign policy. Vlad's spokesmouth is tasked with filling in the vacuum (embracing the suck)with belligerent statements. O & Co has and will, of course back down, especially after the 2012 elections, like he said that he would to Russia.

[ALMANAR.LB] North Korea is preparing to launch a new, long-range rocket, possibly in October, having completed an upgrade at its main satellite launch base, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported Wednesday.
Quoting an unnamed government source, Yonhap cited "credible intelligence" that North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un had ordered the launch of a satellite to mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the North's ruling Workers' Party on October 10.
"We think (the North) will carry out a provocation around the 70th anniversary," the source said.
The South Korean Defense Ministry declined to confirm or deny the Yonhap report.
"As to the construction of North Korea's long-range missile launching facilities, we've been watching the North's moves very closely," a ministry front man said.
According to the Yonhap source, North Korea has completed work on an extended 67-meter (220-foot) gantry capable of handling a rocket twice the size of the 30-meter Unha-3 rocket launched in December 2012.
The Unha-3 launch was widely condemned overseas as a ballistic missile test and triggered additional UN sanctions.
North Korea, which insisted the launch was purely scientific in nature, responded three months later by conducting its a third nuclear test - the most powerful to date.
North Korea is banned under UN Security Council resolutions from carrying out any launch using ballistic missile technology, although repeated small-range missile tests have gone unpunished.

Will this one just get further in the nearest ocean?
[AnNahar] The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... on Wednesday identified the perpetrator of a deadly suicide kaboom blamed on 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.... (IS) bandidosgunnies as a 20-year-old man from its southeast, as the government prepared new measures to protect the mostly non-existent border with Syria.
With the country still shaken by Monday's bombing in Suruc, close to the Syrian border, two police were found rubbed out in their homes in a nearby town but it was unclear if there was a terror link.
Hundreds rallied in Istanbul and other cities late Tuesday to condemn the bombing and protest at government policies on Syria before being dispersed by police wielding tear gas and water cannon.
The suicide kaboom claimed 32 lives, making it one of the deadliest attacks in Turkey in recent years. It was the first time the government directly blamed IS for a strike inside the country.
A Turkish official said DNA testing had confirmed a 20-year-old Turkish man reportedly linked to IS gunnies carried out the suicide kaboom.
"As a result of DNA tests, we confirm that the assailant is a 20-year-old man registered in Adiyaman," the official told AFP on condition of anonymity, referring to a province in southeastern Turkey.
Media reports had earlier said the man -- a university student identified by his initials S.A.A. -- had first become involved with IS gunnies two months ago.
The group, which has captured swathes of territory in Syria and Iraq adjoining the Turkish border, has so far not claimed the Suruc bombing.
Turkish authorities are also investigating if there is any connection between the Suruc assault and a deadly attack in the Kurdish majority city of Diyarbakir last month that killed four people.
Two Turkish police were found dead in the southeastern town of Ceylanpinar on the Syrian border but it was unclear whether the attack had "terrorist connections", Turkish television quoted the governor of Sanliurfa region, Izzettin Kucuk, as saying. NTV television and the state news agency Anatolia quoted Kucuk as saying the police had been found dead in an apartment building. The Hurriyet daily reported both had been shot in the head.
A Turkish court has ordered a ban on publishing of images of the deadly suicide kaboom in Suruc on all print, visual and online media, including Twitter, a Turkish official said. The official insisted no formal ban had been placed by the Turkish authorities on the use of Twitter -- where many of the images had been posted -- as users complained they could not access their accounts inside the country. But as Twitter is unable to take down every image related to the suicide kaboom, users could face problems, the official acknowledged.
"We are holding talks with Twitter to address this problem," the official said.

[BREITBART] The Center for Research on Globalization, a Canada-based research group that claims to be "committed to curbing the tide of globalisation and disarming the new world order," has released an alleged interview with a Turkish nurse who claims to have worked in a clandestine Turkish hospital for maimed ISIS jihadists run by the daughter of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan ... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him... .
The nurse, who declines to be named and is only identified as a 34-year-old Alawite Turk, claims to have worked for seven weeks at a secret hospital in the Turkish city of Sanliurfa and seen Sumeyye Erdogan running operations there. "Almost every day several khaki Turkish military trucks were bringing scores of severely injured, shaggy ISIS rebels to our secret hospital and we had to prepare the operating rooms and help doctors in the following procedures," the nurse says.
She adds that she had to hide her Alawite Moslem faith in order to work at the hospital. "The fact is that I adhere to the Alawi faith and since Erdogan took the helm of the country the system shows utter contempt for the Alawi minority," she claims. She claims to have left the hospital upon being discovered as an Alawite.

[AnNahar] The House of Representatives has passed a measure that would allow the U.S. government to revoke or deny passports to Americans linked to "foreign terrorist organizations."
Passed by a voice vote Tuesday after a 15-minute debate, the bill aims to block the movement of "lone wolves" trained in Syria 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 for attacks in the United States.
Senate approval is required for the bill to become law.
It authorizes the US secretary of state to revoke the U.S. passport -- but not the nationality -- of any American determined to have "aided, assisted, abetted, or otherwise helped" a designated foreign terrorist organization.
It authorizes the US secretary of state to revoke the U.S. passport -- but not the nationality -- of any American determined to have "aided, assisted, abetted, or otherwise helped" a designated foreign terrorist organization.
Likewise, the U.S. passport can be denied under the bill to any American that falls into that category.
U.S. law currently allows passports to be revoked for national security or foreign policy reasons.
But Republican congressman Ed Royce, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, argued that the law is open to interpretation, making a more explicit measure necessary.
About 180 Americans have traveled to Syria to join murderous Moslem groups, out of about 3,400 western imported muscle, the director of national intelligence, James Clapper, said in February.
"These traitors who've turned against Americans (and) joined the ranks of foreign radical terrorist armies should not be allowed to come back in the United States unless it's in handcuffs," Republican congressman Ted Poe, the bill's sponsor, said.
Americans whose passports are revoked can appeal through administrative channels.
[IsraelTimes] Measure faces stiff opposition in Congress to moving estimated 116 terrorist inmates to prisons on US soil.
The Mandela channeling continues. He sees GITMO as the American Robben Island.

JFnKerry Chamberlain is being grilled by the Senate on CSPAN right now about this deal. So is this smelly affair being called a "deal" rather than a "treaty" so as to skirt the Constitution?
A Navy officer and a Marine fired their sidearms hoping to kill or subdue the gunman who murdered five service members last week in Chattanooga, Tennessee, according to multiple military officials familiar with internal reporting on the tragedy.
It remains unclear whether either hit Muhammad Abdulazeez, who was shot and killed on July 16 after he bumped off four Marines and a sailor at the Navy Operational Support Center in Chattanooga. It's also unclear why they were armed, as it is against Defense Department policy for anyone other than military police or law enforcement to carry weapons on federal property.
A report distributed among senior Navy leaders during the shooting's aftermath said Lt. Cmdr. Timothy White, the support center's commanding officer, used his personal firearm to engage Abdulazeez, Navy Times confirmed with four separate sources. A Navy official also confirmed a Washington Post report indicating one of the slain Marines may have been carrying a 9mm Glock and possibly returned fire on the gunman.
The various law enforcement agencies investigating the Chattanooga shooting declined to comment. A source close to the investigation said details of the rampage's last few minutes remain unclear, but no information has emerged to contradict the Navy's internal findings.
Authorities will not know whether White or the Marine hit Abdulazeez until an autopsy and ballistics assessment are performed.

[DAWN] ISLAMABAD: Are they back -- the moral brigades that blackened the faces of women on advertisement boards in 2007?
At least that is what people feared when they found bared arms and faces of models on billboards defaced in Super Market during Eid shopping spree.
Nobody saw who did it but thoughts went back to religious activists, mainly seminary students, who did the same during the Lal Masjid ...literally the Red Mosque, located in Islamabad and frequented by all sorts of high govt officials. The proprietors, Ghazi Abdul Rasheed and Maulana Abdul Aziz Ghazi, unleashed their Islamic storm troopers on the city, shutting down whorehouses and beating people up who weren't devout enough. The Musharraf govt put an end to the nonsense by besieging the place. Abdul Aziz Ghazi was nabbed while he was trying to escape dressed up like a girl. BBC reported that the corpse count at 173, but other claims, usually hysterical, say there were up to 1000 titzup. Among their number was Abdul Rashid Ghazi. Everyone then said tut-tut and what a nice guy he had been... -inspired heady 'islah' (reform) campaign in the federal capital eight years ago.
However, some people cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go... like then, neither the advertisers nor their clients have felt reporting the vandalism to the police or the Capital Development Authority (CDA).
But privately, and guardedly, many have expressed despair at the possible return of the moral brigades.
"I cannot understand what anybody will gain by causing loss to me," said Sohail Shah, the advertiser of two of the three billboards disfigured at the Super Market.
"It will cost me Rs10,000 to change the smeared reflector screen," he added. "Insurance is not available against vandalism and charging clients would be unreasonable and damaging to my business."
Sobia Amir, the owner of a salon, said her 'well-wishers' blamed the act on right-wing students, but felt "not much can be done about it."

[FOXNEWS] Dr. A.Q. Khan, known as the father of Pakistan’s nuclear bomb and a widely suspected supplier of nuclear technology to Iran and North Korea, told Fox News Tuesday that the Islamic republic’s recent nuclear deal with the United States and its negotiating partners may have saved Iran from disaster, either in the form of an internal coup or external attack.
In an email to FOX News, the Pakistani scientist said the Iranian leadership has “very wisely and pragmatically saved their country from a very bad situation --- call it a disaster, if you like.”
Khan said that if Iran had not agreed to the deal, “ongoing chaos would have left the field open to a military coup sponsored by the West, just as has happened in Egypt.”

[Rudaw] A strong kaboom struck a military base in Rmelan town in Hasaka province of northeast of Syria on Tuesday, according to witnesses and local officials who reported plumes of smoke rising from the blast stie.
The kaboom occurred in warehouse of weapons and ammunition belonging to the Kurdish militia known as the YPG, People's Protection Units, at the southern gate of Rmelan, just a few kilometers from the center of town.
Rudaw correspondent Azad Jamakari said witnesses reported that the kaboom was "very strong causing plumes of smoke up rise to an altitude of 100 meters." An official with the YPG said terrorism was not suspected.
"The kaboom was not a terrorist attack but caused by a technical error," the official said.
One hopes these weapons won't turn out to be the nail for want of which the kingdom was lost.
The blast caused casualties and the injured were taken to Krkili Hospital amid tightened their security measures.
"We do not expect any heavy maimed or deaths because the kaboom occurred in a warehouse of weapons and explosives located outside the city that is heavily guarded, allowing no one to enter but the YPG fighters," said Jamakari, citing local sources.
[ALMANAR.LB] Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Wednesday that the United Nations ...where theory meets practice and practice loses... Security Council (UNSC) has unequivocally recognized the Islamic Theocratic Republic's right to enrich uranium.
"Iran sought to establish its right to enrichment, and today, the UNSC has explicitly acknowledged our country's enrichment right," Rouhani said during a cabinet session.
The six countries that were parties to the negotiations on Iran's nuclear program admitted that the anti-Iran sanctions had been ineffective, the Iranian president said, adding that the UNSC, which itself imposed a series of sanctions on Tehran, unanimously endorsed a draft resolution on the lifting of the bans.
Iran and the P5+1 countries -- the United States, Britannia, La Belle France, China and Russia plus Germany -- succeeded in finalizing the text of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in Vienna on July 14 after 18 days of intense negotiations and all-nighters that capped around 23 months of talks between Iran and the six world powers.
Under the JCPOA, limits will be put on Iran's nuclear activities in exchange for, among other things, the removal of all economic and financial bans, against the Islamic Theocratic Republic.
[Ynet] Iran will not accept any attempt to extend sanctions relating to its nuclear program beyond 10 years, the Islamic Theocratic Republic's senior nuclear negotiator, Abbas Araqchi, said on Wednesday.
Speaking about a historic nuclear accord with world powers agreed on July 14 in Vienna, he told a news conference broadcast live on television that any attempt to reimpose sanctions after they expire in 10 years time would be a breach of the deal and would have "no credibility".

[ALMANAR.LB] US Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you know Kerry Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat, conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State... voiced concern if the US congress failed to approve a nuclear deal signed with Iran last week.
According to a report by the National Pubic Radio on Tuesday, he said "if Congress or a future president reverses a nuclear control agreement with Iran, U.S. credibility will suffer."
He was talking to the news website just after hosting Cuba's foreign minister at the State Department.
Kerry defended the B.O. regime's stance on both countries, and said if diplomatic relations with Cuba or a nuclear deal with Iran were scuttled -- either by a future president or Congress -- it would hurt the U.S.
"But I think it'd be a terrible mistake. The vast majority of the American people believe this is a very good thing to do. ... As time goes on, people will see the benefits that come from this policy, he said.
"We had diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union," Kerry continued. "We had diplomatic relations with then-called 'Red China'. We have to have relationships with countries to do business. And American citizens get hurt when we don't do that."
According to the NPR, "On Iran, Kerry said if Congress failed to approve a nuclear deal with the country, the results would be disastrous. I'm telling you, the U.S. will have lost all credibility," Kerry told Inskeep. 'We will not be in the hunt. And if we then decided to use military [after a deal fails], do you believe 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... will be with us? Do you think our European colleagues will support us? Not on your life.'"

[FoxNews] The Army's top officer told Fox News Tuesday it's "frustrating" to watch the gains he helped achieve in Iraq disintegrate at the hands of the Islamic State, saying in an exit interview that the chaos now unfolding "might have been prevented" had the U.S. stayed more engaged.
Army Chief of Staff Gen. Ray Odierno, weeks away from retirement after 39 years in uniform, spent more time in Iraq than any other U.S. Army general -- more than four years, the last two as top commander. He is widely viewed as a key architect of the Iraq surge.
In an exclusive interview with Fox News, the general tackled a range of topics, from the Iran nuclear deal to the deep cuts to U.S. Army troop levels. But Odierno had pointed words on the rise of ISIS in Iraq and Syria -- suggesting it didn't have to be this way.
"It's frustrating to watch it," Odierno said. "I go back to the work we did in 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010 and we got it to a place that was really good. Violence was low, the economy was growing, politics looked like it was heading in the right direction." Vid @ link.
