[ABC] Federal officials tried twice to deport Alfred Olango, a 38-year-old man who was shot by police in Southern California on Tuesday. But, his native country of Uganda refused to take him back, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Let him stay. He'll be much more useful to us here a tool of white oppression. Perhaps Uganda knew something about him that we didn't...
Olango's history with federal immigration authorities came to light in the wake of his being killed Tuesday by an El Cajon police officer after emergency dispatchers received a 911 call from his sister saying that he was "not acting like himself."
The shooting spurred protests Tuesday and Wednesday nights in El Cajon, about 16 miles northwest of San Diego.
Olango arrived in the U.S. in 1991 as a refugee from Uganda, but was ordered to be deported after he was convicted for transporting and selling narcotics, the U.S. immigration agency's western regional communications director, Virginia Kice, told ABC News in a statement. He was later released from immigration custody in 2003 after multiple requests were made to the Ugandan government to obtain travel documents for Olango.

[Asharq al-Aswat] A Malaysian airliner shot down in eastern Ukraine was hit by a Buk missile moved into eastern Ukraine from Russia, Dutch-led criminal Sherlocks said.
The findings challenge Moscow’s suggestion that Malaysia Airlines flight 17, en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur in July 2014, was brought down by the Ukrainian military. All 298 people on board, most of them Dutch citizens, were killed.
Wilbert Paulissen, head of the Central Crime Investigation department of the Dutch National Police, said Wednesday that communications intercepts showed pro-Moscow rebels had called for deployment of the mobile surface-to-air weapon, and reported its arrival in rebel-controlled areas of eastern Ukraine.
From that and other evidence collected by the Joint Investigation Team, Paulissen told a news conference: "It may be concluded MH17 was shot down by a 9M38 missile launched by a Buk, brought in from the territory of the Russian Federation, and that after launch was subsequently returned to the Russian Federation."
"Our investigation has shown that the location from where the BUK was fired was in the hands of the Russian separatists," said Paulissen.
The joint investigation "has identified approximately 100 people who can be linked to the downing of MH17 or the transport of the BUK-TELAR" missile system, Dutch prosecutors said.
They were believed to have had an "active role" in the transporting of the missile system used to bring down the routine flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, chief investigator Fred Westerbeke said.
But he stressed those under investigation were not official suspects yet.
As expected the Sherlocks did not reveal any names, but it revealed the exact missile system used.

A North Korean soldier crossed the military demarcation line to defect to South Korea on Thursday morning.
The soldier was spotted by South Korean guards at the outpost of a frontline Army division in Hwacheon, Gangwon Province at around 10 a.m., according to the Joint Chiefs of Staff here. He was taken into custody. According to a military source, the soldier is a 20-year-old sergeant from an army brigade near the border. When he was spotted, he was in uniform and unarmed.
A military spokesman here said he looked "extremely malnourished."
"We've moved him to another location and have since been questioning him to find out what motivated him," a JCS officer said. "There has been no sign of any unusual military movements in the North but we've stepped up vigilance."
The last time a soldier crossed the DMZ to defect was on June 15 last year.
Seo Wook at JCS headquarters said there are propaganda loudspeakers near the place where the soldier defected.

[AlAhram] Turkish authorities have stopped broadcasts of 10 mostly Kurdish language television channels under state of emergency rules imposed in the wake of the July 15 coup bid, a local official said Thursday.
The channels including Zarok TV -- the first Kurdish children's channel -- stopped broadcasting on Wednesday night and they have been removed from the TURKSAT satellite, the official in the Kurdish-majority southeastern city of Diyarbakir told AFP.
Four of the channels were entirely in the Kurdish language, three more were partly in Kurdish and the three others were in Turkish but considered pro-Kurd, said the official, who asked not to be identified.
He said the authorities also shut down two radio stations broadcasting in Kurdish and Turkish.
Consequences couldn't happen to a more deserving wannabe sultan.
[AnNahar] The number of foreigners visiting The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... plummeted nearly 38 percent in August, with tourism battered by the July failed coup and security concerns after attacks, statistics showed Thursday.
The figures are the first to show visitor numbers for a full month after the attempted putsch which saw a rogue military faction try to oust President Recep Tayyip Erdogan ... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him... from power and attempt to seize Istanbul's main international airport.
Some 3.18 million visitors came to Turkey in August this year, down 37.96 percent on August 2015, the tourism ministry said in its latest release. June saw the sharpest drop of 40.86 percent compared with the previous year, while in July, the number of arrivals fell by 36.72 percent.
The tourism industry last year was worth $35.1 billion in revenues and it accounts for 4.4 percent of GDP in Turkey.

It's okay for Facebook to do this, though...
A controversy is clucking in Pinellas County over chicken sandwiches, sweet tea and voter registration cards.
The Stonewall Democrats of Pinellas County are crying foul over Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections Deborah Clark's decision to hold voter registration drives at nine Chick-fil-A locations. Chick-fil-A, the fast-food chain known for putting faith ahead of profits, supports conservative causes. And we simply can't have that, can we?
Susan McGrath, leader of the Stonewall Democrats and head of the Pinellas Democratic Party, said the decision to use Chick-fil-A would be similar to a Democratic supervisor of elections holding the event at Planned Parenthood.
McGrath said the group supports the effort to register more voters, But she called the move partisan to hold the event at Chick-fil-A and said it might be more transparent to hold the voter drives at the Republican Party headquarters.
"Fox Searchlight has teamed up with voting organizations who have worked to staff the local theatres in each city: The League of Women Voters; Delta Rho Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha, Inc.; National Coalition of Black Civic Participation and its Ohio Unity Coalition and North Carolina Black Youth Vote Network; NYC Votes; and National Voter Registration Day. The program includes the following participating theatre chains and independent theatres nationwide: Bow Tie Cinemas; Emagine Entertainment; Malco Theatres; Marcus Theatres; Wehrenberg Theatres; Amstar Cinemas; Movie Taverns; The Grand Theatres; Bryn Mawr Film Institute, Bryn Mawr, PA; Glenwood Arts Theatre, Overland Park, KS; Little Theatre, Rochester, NY; Midtown Cinema, Harrisburg, PA; Tower City Cinemas, Cleveland, OH; Cedar Lee Theatre, Cleveland Heights, OH; Cinema Arts Theatre, Fairfax, VA; Michigan Theater, Ann Arbor, MI; The Neon, Dayton, OH."
An Israeli gas consortium on Monday signed what Israel called a "historic" $10 billion deal with the Jordan Electric Power Company to supply the Hashemite Kingdom with natural gas for 15 years Beginning in about 2019.
The agreement will provide Jordan with a total of approximately 45 billion cubic meters of gas from the Leviathan offshore gas field, turning Israel into its largest gas supplier.
In 2014, Israel signed a separate deal with Jordan to supply $500 million worth of gas to the Hashemite Kingdom from the Tamar natural gas field in the Mediterranean. This essentially replaces the Arab pipeline gas from Egypt; this source has been hit many times by Sinai terrorists

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte plunged one of the United States' most important Asian alliances deeper into uncertainty on Wednesday by declaring upcoming U.S.-Philippines military exercises "the last," and ruling out any joint navy patrols.
Sure. No problem. We have Guam and more or less have Okinawa. I wonder if Danang is available again?
The firebrand Duterte pledged to honor a longstanding security treaty with the United States, but said China opposed joint marine drills in the Philippines starting next week and there would be no more war games with Washington after that.
"I am serving notice now to the Americans, this will be the last military exercise," Duterte said during a visit to Vietnam. "Jointly, Philippines-U.S.: the last one."
Duterte's remarks gave one of the strongest signs yet of fissures in a historic alliance that Washington has relied upon as it tries to cement its influence in Asia to counterbalance China's rapid rise. Duterte's foreign minister later said his comments had been taken out of context.
The reporter is clueless. We haven't relied on the Philippines since we closed Clark and Subic Bay...
State Department spokesman John Kirby said he was not aware of any official notification from the Philippines about ending joint exercises.
"Our focus is on the relationship today and moving it forward," Kirby told a regular news briefing. "We continue to believe that that's possible. ... (W)e have significant security commitments with the Philippines. We're committed to meeting those commitments and to furthering this relationship."
The Philippines military and U.S. Marines are to hold annual amphibious landing exercises from Oct. 4 to 12. Military leaders from the countries have also started preparing for a new set of exercises next year.
Duterte said he would establish "new alliances for trade and commerce" with Russia and China, but would maintain security agreements with Washington.
What's Chinese for "step into my parlor, says the spider to the fly"?
His near-daily outbursts against the United States began in earnest last month, when he spoke of alleged atrocities a century ago by the United States when it was the Philippines' colonial ruler.
We weren't very good, particularly at the beginning -- we were bad enough that the Europeans mocked us for being the new imperialists. There are some interesting Punch cartoons from the time that pointed out the American hypocrisy on imperialism. We got better as time went on, but one could argue fairly that it was a big mistake for us to stay in the Philippines after we defeated the Spanish. Having said that, it WAS A CENTURY AGO, you moron!
He has called President Barack Obama a "son of a bitch" and said he would order the pullout of the remaining U.S. special forces stationed in the Philippines' restive south.
No need to wait for the order, we can leave today. Tell the sergeant to get his people loaded up and on the bus to the airport...
Duterte told a gathering of the Filipino community in Hanoi there would be no chance of naval patrols with Washington because they risked dragging the Philippines into conflict with China.
That's near John Kerry-class cluelessness right there...
The Philippines and China have long sparred over sovereignty in the South China Sea, and Manila and Washington have shared concerns about China's military clout and pursuit of broad maritime claims.
Asked if Duterte was serious about ending military exercises with the United States, Foreign Secretary Perfecto Yasay said he was misunderstood and his remarks taken out of context.
"Please stay!"
The only thing Duterte had ruled out were joint patrols beyond the Philippines' 12-nautical mile territorial waters, Yasay said.
"Our agreement, that will be respected and this is what the president clearly meant," Yasay told a scrum of reporters, referring to a 1951 Mutual Defence Treaty.
Despite Yasay's words, Duterte's latest comments add to uncertainty about what his end game is and whether Manila's next moves could complicate regional diplomacy or alter the status quo in the South China Sea.
A U.S. defense official said he had not seen the Philippines make a formal request to stop sea patrols and added that the bar for a "joint patrol" with the Philippines was low.
"If the joint patrols stop, will this have any sort of major impact on the situation in the South China Sea? Most likely not," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. He added that in a sign things were continuing as usual, the landing ship USS Germantown would be making a port call in Manila from Wednesday.
Richard Jacobson, an American security expert, said Duterte's posturing could embolden China to exploit a testy relationship between two old allies.
"The U.S.-Philippines relationship might become strained and even shaken," Jacobson said. "The U.S. geopolitical stakes in the region are much too high to react to his hyperbole. The current attitude in Washington is mature - more of patience than feeling provoked."
The Philippines has not formally committed to joining the United States in patrols beyond its territorial waters in the South China Sea. It has carried out at least two patrols with the United States this year that remained within 12 nautical miles of the Philippine coast.
Even though The Philippines claims part of the Spratly Islands, it has hardly a single major combatant ship to enforce its claims. China has to be enjoying this.

A lot of Americans felt the same way. And while those Euros were enjoying their colonialism up through the end of WWII, America had already set up the independence of the Philippines, scheduled for 1946, when the Japanese decided to occupy it in 1941. While the Euros spent the post war period desperately trying to hold on to their 'holdings' in the Far East, the Philippine independence date was met.

Bribes? Isn't Duterte the iron leader who is pretty much incorruptible?
It's not surprising he wants out of Obama's foreign policy disasters. The State Department are utter assholes and I assume they long since have taken the Filipinos for granted.
Military cooperation with the Philippines is worthless anyway. Their biggest, most capable Navy ship is an old clapped-out Coast Guard cutter.

What was it that Duterte called Obama? I can't remember but is seemed like it was some reference to him and his mom? Or was it that Duterte said he was going to kill all the drug users and Bean took it personally. Oh yeah, over at euronews earlier this year: EuroNews. Ouch, that hurts.
"The students protesters -- led by the SLU Rainbow Alliance and the Muslim Students Association Strange bedfellows indeed.
-- had arrived early and filled many of the seats in the two-story auditorium where West was slated to speak. As he took the stage they stood up and filed out." So the strategy was for the $hitbags to initially "Bogart" the auditorium then leave the speaker with a sparsely-populated venue. Not brilliant, but the post-walkout optics was what they were shooting for.

Washington (CNN) A New York City councilman said Wednesday he is protesting the Pledge of Allegiance "in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick," the NFL quarterback who has famously declined to stand for the national anthem.
In explaining his decision to sit down during the pledge, Jumaane D. Williams, D-Brooklyn, cited the increased earnings of the New York police officer who placed Eric Garner in a fatal chokehold in 2014. Former Community Organizer, who knew ?
"This type of non-violent protest is not disrespectful as some have suggested," Williams said in a statement. "(Kaepernick) deserves support, not criticism for his actions. What does it say about our country when there is a national outrage over an athlete sitting out the national anthem, but the same outrage isn't expressed when a young black man is killed for no reason?"
Williams added that he has engaged in a "personal protest" with the pledge and at times "The Star-Spangled Banner," saying he stands out of respect but does not recite the words.

Other than electing an occasional RINO mayors, why are Donks controlled urban areas such seething beds of racism? Blame the union? Who gave the unions such powers over your operation?

Since the bulk of police shootings in these cases seem to happen in Democrat run cities perhaps they should boycott the Democrats and their policies for awhile.
An Islamic academy in Ann Arbor [MI] has reached a $1.7 million tentative settlement with Pittsfield Township for denying it the right to build a new school on its property, according to the Michigan chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
The Muslim Community Association sued the township in 2012, claiming it violated the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act when township officials refused to allow the Michigan Islamic Academy to build a new school on vacant township property it owned.
The act protects individuals, houses of worship and other religious institutions from discrimination in zoning and landmarking laws.
CAIR-MI said the settlement, one of the largest since the act was enacted, grants the academy the right to build a 70,000 square foot Islamic school, a residential development consisting of 22 duplex units and three single-family homes and a park.
