[FoxNews] Two drug traffickers in California who were arrested last week for being in possession of 150,000 fentanyl pills — enough to kill millions of people — were released back onto the streets, officials said.
Jose Zendejas, 25, and Benito Madrigal, 19, both from Washington, were arrested during a traffic stop-turned-drug bust in Tulare on Friday. They were booked into the Tulare County Pre-Trial Facility on charges of possession, transportation and selling of illegal drugs, officials said.
In a surprising twist of events, the two inmates were released just days later.
"The Tulare County Sheriff’s Office received a court order to release both suspects from custody on their own recognizance," officials said.
"All inmates booked into Tulare County jails are sent through what is known as the Risk Assessment Process through the Tulare County Probation Department. That ‘Risk Assessment’ is then sent to a judge with the court, who, then, determines whether or not the individual arrested is held on bail or if they are to be released," The Tulare County Sheriff’s Office added.
Sheriff Mike Boudreaux said he strongly disagrees with the decision to release the traffickers, citing public safety concerns, but said his office was forced to comply with the court order.

Open borders and fentanyl, massive overburdening of our social support network. hospitals, criminal justice system and schools. We are being destroyed as a nation by the CCP and the corruption they own in DC. Not a shot fired but it is intentional warfare by other means. I know it, you know it and Washington knows it, but the levers of power are locked in the hands of their clients in the Deep State and the Demokrat Puppet Show. The easy fixes have long since passed, while we all stood on the walls dealing with the outside threats, secure in naive belief that home was safe, blind to the enemy within. The fix options now require a determination, vision and patient toughness I just don't see in the flotsam and jetsam walking around these days.

If the CCP would deliberately and knowingly flood our country with deadly narcotics I think we can assume they would not hesitate to release a deadly virus regardless of the effect it has on their own population. After all, they can afford to lose a million people and they have proven they have no regard for human life. We don't have the smoking gun to prove that COVID-19 was the deliberate release of a bio-weapon but fentanyl proves that Chinese communists are the kind of murderous thugs who would do such a thing.
Then we can move on to our own politicians and corporate officials who think it's OK to do business with China. The logical conclusion must be that they are no better than the CCP.
As for the 150,000 fentanyl pills, they are like so many droplets in a barrel. Addicts will still be able to score without trouble and without any price increase. This arrest is merely a show, just a little breakage if you will, to make it look like our government is doing something about this crisis other than taking payoffs from the cartels and the CCP.

[IsraelTimes] Salah Abdeslam apologizes to victims, says he was a last-minute add-on to the group of 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.... attackers
The only surviving suspected member of the Islamic State attack team that terrorized Gay Paree in 2015 pleaded for leniency during his final appearance in court on Monday, acknowledging he had "made mistakes," but declaring: "I’m not a murderer."
Salah Abdeslam,
...the connected Moroccan-French boy who ran with all the other petty criminals in the notoriously Salafist Molenbeek neighbourhood until they grew up to transfer that sense of entitlement to membership in ISIS. Mr. Abdeslam has already been sentenced in Belgium in a separate trial, which got him twenty years...
is a leading suspect in La Belle France’s worst peacetime attacks of November 13, 2015, that killed 130 people. He is on trial with 19 other men on suspicion of playing critical roles in the Islamic State’s massacres in a Gay Paree music hall, cafes and the national stadium that Friday night.
In closing arguments earlier this month, French prosecutors demanded a life sentence without a possibility of parole for Abdeslam. They charged him with multiple counts of murder, complicity to murder, belonging to a terrorist organization and taking part in a conspiracy to commit murder and kidnapping as a member of a terrorist organization.
A verdict in the historic trial is expected on Wednesday.
Abdeslam apologized to the victims on Monday, saying his remorse and sorrow for the 130 people killed and more than 400 maimed is heartfelt and sincere.
"Who can make an insincere apology for so much suffering?" Abdeslam said. He acknowledged he has made mistakes, but declared: "I am not a murderer, I am not a killer.
Abdeslam stayed silent about what happened on November 13, 2015. Since his trial opened in September, he had a few outbursts of bad boy bravado, but refused to answer most questions.
In April, his words started flowing and he gave a lengthy testimony over several days that at times contradicted earlier statements, including on his loyalty to the Islamic State.
As the only member of the Gay Paree attackers who did not join the self-proclaimed IS caliphate in Syria, he told the court that he was a last-minute add-on to the group. He said he "renounced" his mission to detonate his explosives-packed vest in a bar in northern Gay Paree the night of November 13 as his brother and other Islamic State turbans fanned out around the capital mounting parallel attacks.
A police explosives expert has told the court that the suicide belt was faulty, but Abdeslam testified that he disabled it.
After leaving the café, Abdeslam described desperate attempts to reach friends to ask for help, and taking a taxi across Gay Paree to the suburb of Montrouge. He hid out at first near Gay Paree, and then fled with friends to Brussels, where he was arrested four months later.

[ZERO] The urban crime gangs dominating Swedish cities are almost exclusively made up of immigrants, according to Amir Rostami, a leading criminologist and professor who based his findings on police data.
In Sweden, the number of gang-related crimes is increasing every year, and as a result of mass and uncontrolled immigration, the authorities are losing control over more and more areas where migrant gangs are taking power.
"It is not enough for many immigrants to come to Sweden from a less developed country and enjoy the benefits. They want excitement and want to get rich quickly," says criminologist Rostami.
Rostami has divided these gang members into two categories. Disorganized criminals are mostly made up of slightly younger members between 20 and 25 years old who have poorer impulse control, less education, and are primarily dealing with weapons and drugs. Then, there are the slightly more mature, rational, and better educated members who are involved in more extensive criminal networks; some of these members are even accountants, people with degrees, and former military personnel. This group is responsible for a huge share of crimes in Sweden, suspected of committing 40,000 criminal acts every year. These criminal networks not only compete with each other, but also work together.
Rostami sees himself as an example of someone who chose another life. He was born in Iran, came to Sweden with his family as an immigrant, and grew up in the Frölunda district of Gothenburg, which is now considered to be a "sensitive area" where large immigrant populations live. He said his upbringing was fraught with the risk factors of becoming a criminal, but instead of taking the path of crime, he chose to study, according to the Hungarian news outlet Magyar Nemzet.
And yet some of them are already here, complaining because they are more aggressively questioned when they apply for American citizenship.
[IsraelTimes] Iranians stateside disappointed that Trump-era terror designation of IRGC not removed under Biden, preventing family members from joining them
The immigration lawyer said he does not believe the US government can list another country’s military as a foreign terrorist organization.
Two years ago, Leili Ghazi quit studying biomedical engineering in Iran ...The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both... and seized the chance to travel to the United States to build a new life for herself and her parents.

[IsraelTimes] But Sajid Majeed Mir, wanted by the FBI, convicted of terror financing unrelated to assault that included deadly shooting at Jewish community center
Pakistain sentenced one of the turbans linked to the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India to 15 years in prison for terror financing unrelated to the assaults, according to court documents viewed by The News Agency that Dare Not be Named on Monday. Sajid Majeed Mir, 43, was arrested in 2020 and sentenced in May, according to the documents,
Oh? How very interesting.
but his detention and sentencing were never disclosed by Pakistain. He was sought by the FBI ...Formerly one of the world's premier criminal investigation organizations, something for a nation to be proud of. Now it's a political arm of the Deep State oligarchy that is willing to trump up charges, suppress evidence, or take out insurance policies come election time...

[Rudaw] The bodies of three Kurdish migrants colonists recovered from the Greek coast earlier this month will be returned to the Kurdistan Region on July 2, the representative of an organization working with refugees and displaced persons announced on Sunday.
The three Kurdish migrants colonists are set to arrive in the homeland through Erbil International Airport on July 2 at 4:05 pm, said Hussein Hama Salih, the Greece representative of Summit (Lutka) Foundation for Refugees and Displaced Affairs.
He confirmed the three migrants colonists’ bodies as those of 32-year-old Ameera Othman, four-year-old Hanasa Hazhar, and seven-year-old Rezhwar Rebwar. Their bodies were identified on June 15.
Greece is a key route used by refugees and migrants colonists as an entry point into the European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... At least three separate migrant boats sank in the Aegean Sea late last year, leading to the drowning of at least 30 people, including Kurds, between December 21 and 25.
Othman, Hazhar and Rebwar drowned after their boat capsized on the night of December 21, according to Lutka.
An 11-year-old boy who lost his entire family in the Aegean Sea was returned to his hometown of Koya in March.
Salih in mid-June told Rudaw that the two children whose bodies will be returned next Saturday belonged to the same family, and they were from Koya town.
The Kurdistan Region saw a large exodus of its youth last year, when tens of thousands of mostly young Kurds left the Region and headed to Europa ...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum... seeking a better life, using smuggling routes. A number of these migrants colonists met their unfortunate end on the freezing Belarus-Poland border and others drowned at sea.
The bodies of 16 migrants colonists who drowned in the deadliest migrant disaster in the English Channel were returned to the Kurdistan Region in late December, with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) describing the tragedy as the "worst disaster on record."
People, mostly youth, take the perilous journey away from the Kurdistan Region through smuggling routes trying to escape an ongoing crisis grasping the Region — with high unemployment, corruption, political instability, and a fragile economy influencing their decision to depart.
The Kurdish government has acknowledged the existence of systemic issues and financial hardships but has said it is working to address these problems.

[IsraelTimes] Zuljanah rocket weighs 52 tons and can reach an orbit of 500 kilometers above the surface; US warns it could be used to launch nuclear warheads
Video of the take off at the link, for those interested.
Iran ...They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... tested out its Zuljanah satellite launcher on Sunday, the second of three tests scheduled for the long-range ballistic launcher, which the US fears could be used to launch nuclear warheads.
The test, reported by Iranian state TV, comes a day after European brass hats said talks on reviving the nuclear deal with Tehran would resume within days.
The rocket’s name, Zuljanah, comes from the name of the horse of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad. It weighs 52 tons, is 25.5 meters in length, and can carry loads of up to 220 kilograms at an orbit of 500 kilometers above the surface, according to a report by Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency.
"The third development phase of the Zuljanah satellite launcher will be based on a combination of information gained during today’s launch," a defense ministry spokesperson was cited by Rooters as saying Sunday.
Iran first acknowledged the planned tests for the Zuljanah satellite launcher on June 15, after satellite images taken by Maxar Technologies showed preparations at a launch pad at Imam Khomeini Spaceport in Iran’s rural Semnan province, the site of frequent recent failed attempt ...Curses! Foiled again!... s to put a satellite into orbit.
One set of images showed a rocket on a transporter, preparing to be lifted and put on a launch tower. A later image showed the rocket apparently on the tower.
A spokesperson of Iran’s Defense Ministry responded to the published images by saying the tests would be conducted for "research" purposes, according to Fars News Agency.
But the US has rejected such claims, accusing Tehran of refueling tensions in the area.
