[NYPOST] Democrat Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown took action against a member of his own hate crime task force on Tuesday after numerous antisemitic social media posts by the member surfaced, including a claim that the babies murdered in the brutal Oct. 7 Hamas ...a regional Iranian catspaw,... attack were "fake."
Zainab Chaudry, an anti-Israel activist who serves as the director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations ... the Moslem Brüderbund's American arm ... ’ (CAIR) Maryland office, made the posts in the weeks following Hamas’ attack, which saw more than 1,200 people killed, including children and babies, as well as numerous rapes and destruction of property.
"The Office of Attorney General learned last week about personal social media posts of a member of the Maryland Commission on Hate Crimes Response and Prevention, Zainab Chaudry, Executive Director of the Council on American Islamic Relations — Maryland Office," Brown said in a blurb.
"Attorney General Brown has determined that Ms. Chaudry’s social media posts risk disrupting the work and mission of the Commission, so he is announcing steps that he took today to ensure that the vital work and mission of the Commission can continue without interruption," he said, adding that Chaudry’s membership on the commission would be "temporarily suspended." Until it all blows over.
He went on to say that his office would "develop a draft values statement" concerning personal communications by commission members, and called on those members to "to exercise great care in their communications and conduct."
[GEO.TV] The US authorities thwarted an Indian conspiracy to assassinate the pro-Khalistan leader of Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) Gurpatwant Singh Pannun

on American soil and issued a warning to India’s government over concerns it was involved in the plot, according to multiple people familiar with the case who spoke to the Financial Times (FT).
In a shocking story, the FT has revealed that the target of the Indian plot was Gurpatwant, an American and Canadian citizen who is general counsel for Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), a US-based group that is part of a movement pushing for an independent Sikh state called “Khalistan”.
Khalistan is the romantic idea that somehow the Sikhs will create a homeland in the Indian Punjab through anti-Indian terror and lawfare, funded by the Sikh diaspora and trained and guided as a project of Pakistan’s ISI as yet another arrow in their quiver aimed at India’s heart. No doubt that’s why it never seems to have occurred to them the Pakistan’s Punjab is the other half of their native homeland.
The intelligence people familiar with the case, who requested anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the intelligence that prompted the warning, told FT the Indian government was behind the plot to kill Pannun, who has been running a worldwide campaign called Khalistan Referendum in which over 1.3 million Sikhs have voted so far.
The US sources didn’t tell the FT whether the protest to New Delhi led the plotters to abandon their plan, or whether the FBI intervened and foiled a scheme already in motion.
The US informed some allies about the plot following the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian Sikh separatist killed in Vancouver in June.
In September, Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said there were “credible allegations” linking New Delhi to Nijjar’s fatal shooting.
The FT reported that one person familiar with the situation said the US protest was issued after Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a high-profile state visit to Washington in June.
The FT revealed that apart from the diplomatic warning, US federal prosecutors have filed a sealed indictment against at least one alleged perpetrator of the plot in a New York district court, according to people familiar with the case.
[GEO.TV] Two soldiers were martyred when an improvised explosive device (IED) exploded near a convoy of security forces in North Waziristan district’s Razmak area, the military’s media wing said Wednesday.
In a statement, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said that the soldiers who lost their lives were identified as Lance Naik Ehsan Badshah, 33, resident of Karak district, and Lance Naik Sajid Hussain, 30, resident of Kurram district.
The military’s media wing added that a sanitisation operation was being carried out “to eliminate any terrorists present in the area”.
It noted that Pakistan’s security forces are determined to eliminate the menace of terrorism and such sacrifices of “our brave soldiers further strengthen our resolve”.
The development comes a day after the security forces gunned down three terrorists in two intelligence-based operations (IBOs) in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's Dera Ismail Khan and South Waziristan districts.
A 26-year-old soldier — Sepoy Shahzeb, belonging to Rawalpindi — had also embraced martyrdom after an IED exploded in the general area of Gharyoum, North Waziristan.
[An Nahar] The United States military said Wednesday that it had carried out strikes against Iran-backed groups in Iraq that have launched attacks on U.S. forces.
Two officials with Iranian-backed militias in Iraq said the strikes hit three locations in the area of Jurf al-Sakhar south of Baghdad, killing eight members of the Kataeb Hezbollah bully boy group. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.
Iranian-backed gunnies have launched dozens of attacks on bases and facilities housing U.S. personnel in Iraq and Syria since Oct. 17. While most of the more than five dozen attacks have been ineffective, at least 60 U.S. personnel have reported minor injuries. The bully boy groups have said that the strikes are in retaliation for U.S. support of Israel in the ongoing Israel-Hamas ...a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",... war.
The U.S. Central Command said in a statement Wednesday that its forces had "conducted discrete, precision strikes against two facilities in Iraq ... in direct response to the attacks against U.S. and Coalition forces by Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites.

[IsraelTimes] The Israel Defense Forces said Wednesday a fighter jet successfully shot down an incoming cruise missile over the Red Sea, close to the southernmost city of Eilat.
The missile is believed to have been fired by the Iran-backed Iran's Houthi sock puppets ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth.

On Sunday, Houthis seized the Galaxy Leader, an Israel-linked fat merchantman sailing in the Red Sea.
The IDF said the missile did not enter Israeli territory. Air raid sirens went off in the southern resort city of Eilat around the time of the incident.
An F-35 stealth plane was sent out to intercept the missile, the military said. It did not specify how far the weapon was from the country when the jet shot it down.
Though no group took responsibility, Hezam al-Asad, a member of the Iran-backed Houthi’s political bureau, wrote on the social media platform X, in Hebrew, "What is happening in Eilat?"
Al-Asad occasionally posts Hebrew-language taunts at Israel.
Two Turkish citizens named Seyfullah Öztürk and Yakup Erdal, who arrived in Lebanon from Turkey to support Gaza, were killed in an Israeli airstrike in southern Lebanon. Hamas has now confirmed their deaths, along with the deaths of two Lebanese citizens.
