In Hollywood-- er, Nightmare Alley,
The Muses, enthused, used to dally:
See Joan's golden hour,
Secure in her power...
Fast forward to freaky finale.

[ToloNews] At least nine people were killed and 13 others were maimed in two blasts occurring on Thursday evening in Mazar-e-Sharif of Balkh province, security officials said.
Both blasts targeted public transportation.
A front man for the Balk security department said that the blasts were due to explosives placed in vehicles.
Provincial health officials confirmed hospitals had received bodies of the slain and were treating the maimed.
The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) or Daesh has claimed accountability for two bomb blasts in Mazar-e-Sharif city of the northern Balkh province that killed at least nine and injured 13 more civilians.
The terror group has claimed 30 people to be affected after the explosions.
The Two explosions took place only minutes before people break their fast and at a time when commuters were rushing home to do so.
Asif Waziri, spokesperson of the city’s police said the target is apparently Shiite people.
based on the information of Waziri, one IED hit a van while the second one exploded in a van station in Police District three of the city.
This comes only a week after ISIS targeted a mosque named Sih Dokan in the northern Afghan city killing and injuring tens of Shiite worshipers.
[AlAhram] When dozens of button men raided Abubakar Aliyu's village in central Nigeria two weeks ago, they stormed in on cycle of violences, each carrying one or two attackers who opened fire and chased down residents.
By the time security forces arrived, more than 100 villagers were dead and scores of homes destroyed after button men targeted four villages simultaneously, residents and local officials said.
Aliyu escaped the Sunday morning attack with workers on his construction site, but not before he and others were shot and one colleague killed.

Pity that Wagner Group is otherwise occupied. Nigeria could use some help dealing with their hardboys. Since raising and training a competent army is hard, maybe it is time to outsource.
[AlAhram] A retired Bosnian Moslem forces general was sentenced to eight years in prison on Thursday for war crimes committed by foreign jihadists during Bosnia's brutal 1990s conflict.
Sakib Mahmuljin, 69, was tried for his role at the top of the command chain of imported muscle that executed more than 50 Bosnian Serb prisoners of war in Vozuca and Zavidovici in the northeast of the country.
Mahmuljin was at the time commander of the 3rd corps of the Bosnian army, composed mainly of local Moslems.
The crime was carried out by the "El Moudjahid" unit attached to his corps, which was made up of hundreds of mainly foreign jihadists from Africa, the Middle East, and some Western countries who joined forces with Bosnian Moslems.
Mahmuljin was found guilty by a Sarajevo appeals court of "war crimes against maimed and sick people" and "against prisoners of war", including "murder" and "inhumane treatment".
As a commander, he "failed to prevent" these crimes from being committed and "knew or had every reason to know" that members of this unit were preparing to commit crimes, the court said.
The verdict is final and Mahmuljin can no longer appeal.
This is one of the few convictions of former senior Bosnian military officials for crimes committed by foreign jihadists during the Bosnian intercommunal conflict that killed nearly 100,000 people between 1992 and 1995.
The war crimes in question took place between July and October 1995, in the wake of two Bosnian offensives.
The "El Moudjahid" unit had acquired a sinister reputation because of the crimes committed against Bosnian Serb or Bosnian Croat prisoners of war.
Most of the Islamist fighters left the country after the war under pressure from the United States, which at the end of 1995 hosted the negotiations on the Dayton peace agreement which effectively ended the conflict.
[Dawn] Balochistan ...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it... 's Parliamentary Secretary for Information Bushra Rind on Thursday said the detained husband of the alleged Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... University suicide bomber claims his wife was "mentally ill".
At least four people, including three Chinese nationals, were killed while four others were maimed in a suicide kaboom outside the University of Karachi's Confucius Institute two days ago.
CCTV footage of the attack showed a burqa-clad woman standing outside the entrance of the Confucius Institute. The woman detonated herself just as the van neared the institute's entrance.
The banned Baloch Liberation Army had later grabbed credit for the attack.
Investigators identified the bomber as Shari Baloch, a married mother of two. On Wednesday, CTD official Raja Umar Khattab said that her husband, who he identified as Dr Haibatan, was missing and that raids were being carried out to find him and other controllers.
Addressing a presser in Quetta today, Rind confirmed that the husband had been arrested by law enforcement and that he made the revelation of his wife's mental state in the course of interrogation.
She quoted the husband as saying his wife was receiving medication for her mental illness.
Rind said "external forces" were attempting to involve Baloch people in anti-national activities in a "cowardly attempt" to discredit and portray the community in a bad light. "The Baloch nation won't be affected by such hostile conspiracies," she vowed.
[OneIndia] The presence of Pashtun gunnies in Jammu and 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.... (K&K) is a worrying sign. Two Pashto speaking foreign bad boyz were potted in an encounter in Jammu and Kashmir earlier this month and this has led the agencies to suspect the hand of the dreaded Haqqani Network.
The Haqqani Network mainly operates in eastern Afghanistan and North-Western Pakistain and is closely associated with the ISI. Following the encounter in Sunjuwan, ADGP Mukesh Singh said that an arrested aide of one of the terrorist, Shafiq Ahmed who had kept them at their house had informed the police that both spoke Pashto.

There are several pashtuns in the LeT itself. But equipment from the Taliban has been noticed in gunny hands of late. NVGs, PK guns, explosive charges bought from their Taliban cousins. Pakis from AJK like to believe they're pashtuns sometimes, if they learn pashto and train in Quetta for a few months.

With that kind of resumé, surely they don’t speak it as well as you, and with a more noticeably foreign accent... My mother tells of the Nazis arriving a few years after she followed her parents into Holland, and of the shibboleth tongue twister she and the local children could say that Germans simply could not pronounce.

[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Paleostinian Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... Movement, has unveiled the home-made Jenin unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which was developed by al-Quds Brigades engineers themselves, and is set to deployed by the movement’s Air Force.
"Today we are unveiling the Jenin Drone Plane, that is operated by the movement’s military wing’s Air Force, which is being reinforced by our Mujahideen inside the besieged Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Strip," Abu Hamza, front man for the al-Quds Brigades said in a statement.
Abu Hamza warned that "any aggression against the holy al-Aqsa Mosque and Islamic sanctities will lead to a battle that exceeds the Paleostinian borders."
The al-Quds Brigades broadcasted video footage showing the drone conducting a reconnaissance missions, without disclosing further technical details.

And I say make a rough copy of this thing with sizeable yield HEX, write some moslemnities in Arabic on it, and fire it into the paleo quarter most known to house the vilest of vermin. Send it into where that bitch with the knife came from.
[AlAhram] Suspected Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems.... group button men have attacked a Ramadan gathering hosted by a former official of a US-backed group in eastern Syria, killing seven and wounding four, opposition activists said Thursday.
The Wednesday night attack in the Abu Khashab area in Deir el-Zour province targeted the home of a former front man with the US backed Syrian Democratic Forces, according to the Britannia-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and Euphrates Post news website.
Euphrates Post said the button men arrived on cycle of violences and opened fire as the group was having an iftar, the fast-breaking meal during the Moslem holy month of Ramadan at the home of former SDF front manNouri Hameesh, who was among those killed.
Three years after IS lost the last sliver of territory it controlled, its sleeper cells have been increasing attacks in recent months, mainly targeting the Kurdish-led SDF but also forces from the Syrian government.
The attack took place on Wednesday night in the Abu Khashab area in Deir ez-Zor province and targeted the residence of the head of public relations of the province’s civil council, reported the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).
There’s a cute little map at the link from GoogleMaps that I suppose is informative.
[Rudaw] The Syrian regime and Kurdish authorities in northeast Syria (Rojava) reached an agreement on Thursday to put an end to the sieges they recently imposed on each other’s neighborhoods, an informed source told Rudaw.
Last month, the regime prevented the import of flour, fuel, medicine and other essentials like children’s milk into the Kurdish-held neighborhoods of Sheikh Maqsood and Ashrafiya in the country’s northwest Aleppo province. In return, the Kurdish security forces imposed a siege on regime-held areas in Qamishli, sparking protests by the residents of both areas.
Ibrahim Shekho, spokesperson for the Afrin-based Human Rights Organization, has been closely monitoring the situation. He told Rudaw English late Thursday that Kurdish officials told him they had reached an agreement to end all sieges.
"As a result, 32 tons of flour were imported. More will be imported tomorrow. The siege was on flour, fuel, medicine, and other needs. People were allowed to carry only a limited amount of money when leaving the neighborhoods," he said.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) also reported the agreement between the regime and Kurdish officials.
Shekho added that the ban has been removed on everything, and that the situation has returned to as it was before, nearly a month ago when the regime sieges began.
He lives in nearby Shahba camp which has previously suffered from sieges by the regime. The camp is home to hundreds of thousands of internally displaced people (IDPs) who fled the Ottoman Turkish invasion of their hometown of Afrin in 2018.
The Sheikh Maqsood and Ashrafiya neighborhoods have been run by a Kurdish administration linked to the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (NES) since 2019. Some 18,000 families - including Afrin IDPs - live there, according to the North Press Agency.
The Syrian regime has administrative, service and intelligence offices in the Kurdish-held city of Qamishli where the regime and Kurdish forces have clashed several times in recent years.
Kurdish Internal Security Forces (Asayish) entered the regime-held neighborhoods, later clarifiying that its intention was not to control it but to conduct "extensive security measures" in response to the regime siege on Sheikh Maqsood.
