"A colorful battle for fame
Was lost when the court heard our claim
On her birthday. That suit,"
Groaned the small greasy fruit,
"Is how 'Oliver green' got its name."

Two more weeks!
[FoxNews] The administration of Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey is pushing back against a demand by the Biden administration that it take down a number of shipping containers it has used to plug a gap in the incomplete border wall, saying that border states "cannot rely on the federal government to ensure its security."
"The myriad of federal agencies that claim jurisdiction on the southern border but do nothing to prevent the public nuisance caused by illegal immigration and criminal activity that exploits the open border is quite frustrating to those that live, work and recreate on that border and in our state," Allen Clark, director of Arizona’s Department of Emergency and Military Affairs, said in a letter to the Department of Interior’s Bureau of Reclamation, obtained by Fox News Digital.
The bureau had written to Gov. Ducey’s office last week, arguing that the move in August to fill nearly 4,000 feet of gaps in the border wall with shipping containers topped with razor wire is illegal. Ducey had announced the filling of the gaps in early August.
The construction consisted of 60 double-stacked shipping containers, welded shut and topped with four feet of razor wire. His office said that it is 22 feet tall and weighs nearly 9,000 lbs.
"Arizona has had enough," Ducey said in a statement at the time. "We can’t wait any longer.
In its letter, the Bureau of Reclamation states that Arizona placed containers on lands within the vicinity of the Morelos Dam and also on land that is part of the Cocopah Indian Tribe’s West Reservation. It also said that the placement interferes with a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) project to fill the gaps, and calls on Arizona to stop further construction and assist in removing the containers.
"The unauthorized placement of those containers constitutes a violation of federal law and is a trespass against the United States. That trespass is harming federal lands and resources and impeding Reclamation’s ability to perform its mission," the letter, reported by 12News, stated.
A spokesperson for the Bureau told Fox News Digital that the bureau's priority is to ensure the integrity of the water delivery infrastructure and the safety of its workforce in order to maintain operational readiness.
The letter, which comes more than two months after Ducey’s office sealed the gap, was issued just as CBP put out a notice of its own plan to close the gaps near the Morelos Dam.
That notification says that the gaps will be filled instead with "a combination of temporary mesh fencing and mechanized bollard vehicle gates that allow for access to the riverside of the barrier." According to the CBP notice, construction of that temporary replacement would not begin until "early 2023."
In its searing response to the Bureau of Reclamation’s letter, Arizona hit out at what it said was a "lack of coordination" from federal agencies that means that states like Arizona "cannot rely on the federal government to ensure its security."
Clark said Arizona disagrees with the feds’ claim that Arizona has trespassed against the U.S., arguing that the regulation in question provides an exemption for federal and state employees when carrying out official duties.
"Moreover, 43 C.F.R. Part 429.4(c)(8) provides that "activities authorized under other Federal statutes or regulations" are not subject to regulation," he wrote. "Since, the U.S. Constitution provides for the protection of the states (Article IV, section 4) and specifically reserves the right of states to defend themselves (Article 1, section 10), the regulation you cite does not prohibit Arizona’s actions."
Arizona says it is "committed to working with all our federal partners" but adds that federal officials have said that border construction was set to begin since December 2021.
"However, to date, Arizona has not seen any action by the federal government to do so and was therefore required to take its own action. For this reason, the containers will remain in place until specific details regarding construction are provided," Clark says.
The back-and-forth between Arizona and the Biden administration comes as states are increasingly taking matters related to illegal immigration and border security into their own hands amid what they say is a vacuum left by the feds.
Arizona is one of a number of states, along with Florida and Texas, that has been transporting migrants north to cities like Washington, D.C., in an effort to draw attention to the border crisis and relieve their overwhelmed communities.
"Sadly, the federal government doesn't seem to be acting either with a sense of urgency or in good faith to deal with this problem." Ducey spokesman C.J. Karamargin told Fox News Digital.

The governor is repelling an invasion. Who ever signed the letter might not realize they have 'aided and abetted' that hostile invasion. There is a part of the Constitution that covers that.

I'm with Frank, instead of a nicely written letter Ducey should have gotten on tv and told the entire administration to go fuck themselves in those exact words.

[ShabelleMedia] At least 21 people were killed in two separate bombings in the central Hirshabelle state of Somalia, officials said.
A powerful boom-mobilewent kaboom! in Jalalaqsi town when soldiers operating a security checkpoint intercepted a vehicle. The checkpoint is near local government buildings and a military base belonging to African Union ...a union consisting of 53 African states, most run by dictators of one flavor or another. The only all-African state not in the AU is Morocco. Established in 2002, the AU is the successor to the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), which was even less successful... peacekeepers from Djibouti.
"At around 2:30 p.m., a vehicle arrived at the checkpoint, one of the soldiers collecting taxation pointed a gun and stopped it," said Mire Hussein Siyad, deputy district commissioner of Jalalaqsi.
"When the gun was pointed at [it], the vehicle went kaboom!," Siyad told VOA Somali.
He said Wednesday’s explosion killed at least 15 people, including the town’s two civilian leaders, Mayor Adan Mohammed Isse and Mohammed Nur Agajof Dabaashe, the district commissioner. Dabaashe was recently replaced as Jalalaqsi commissioner, but he had not handed over responsibility yet, Siyad said.
Other victims included soldiers at the checkpoints and civilians including street vendors. The explosion destroyed a building near the checkpoint where the local officials were based. Siyad said two AU peacekeepers were maimed in the attack.
Siyad said the target was the town’s main bridge.
Meanwhile, ...back at the palazzo, Don Smilzo looked for an avenue of escape. The only window opened a hundred feet above the moat. The nearest of the hired assassins hold a bloody axe.
The window was looking better all the time.... six other people including four non-combatants were killed a separate explosion, when a three-wheeled cycle of violence with explosives attached, struck the Bulobarde town bridge. The important bridge links Somalia’s south and central regions. Pictures taken by the witnesses show the earth-shattering kaboom partially damaged the bridge.
The district commissioner of Bulobarde, Ahmed Mahad Nur, told VOA Somali that two men riding the cycle of violence drove it onto the bridge. He said one of the men jumped off before the earth-shattering kaboom while the second one detonated the explosive-laden cycle of violence and died in the blast.
Nur said the man who jumped was shot and killed by security forces. He said troops seized two other cycle of violences laden with explosives.
The officials said the two explosions were coordinated and intended to destroy the two bridges.
"They wanted to bring down the two bridges at the same time," Siyad said.
"It’s the most crucial bridge between the central and southern regions," said Nur.
Nur vowed the local government will rebuild the damaged bridge.
The al-Shabaab ...... the personification of Somali state failure... bad boy group immediately grabbed credit for the two attacks.
Bulobarde and Jalalaqsi in the Hiran region (Hirshabelle state) have been the focal point of efforts to mobilize the local population against al-Shabaab.
Somali army spokesperson General Abdullahi Ali Anod on Tuesday reported that government forces and local fighters are completing preparations for new operations against al-Shabaab in Hirshabelle, and in Southwest, Galmudug ...a semiautonomous region in central Somalia, bordering Puntland on the north. Galmudug is not trying to obtain international recognition as a separate nation, but rather considers itself autonomous within the larger Somali federalism, for what that's worth... and Jubaland states. He said the operations could start within a "week or weeks."
Al-Shabaab has threatened clans mobilizing against them with violence.
[ShabelleMedia] The government forces have wrestled control of a number of villages from the al-Shabaab ...... the personification of Somali state failure... following an operation assisted by local militia.
Early on Wednesday morning, the troops moved into Warkulan, Bakajeh, Galef, War-Isse, Qordhere, and Jilabley located on Jowhar-Raga-El highway in the Middle Shabelle region.
Al-Shabaab turbans left the areas before the arrival of the SNA, and there was no confrontation during the takeover, which took place in a peaceful manner.
Somali soldiers along with allied militia are making efforts to dislodge al-Shabaab from the remaining areas under its control. The government claims victory over the current war.
[Garowe] After exposing a number of al-Shabaab ...... the personification of Somali state failure... financiers, the US Department of Treasury has revealed tactics used by the al-Qaeda-linked group to traffic weapons, in what could assist Somalia and neighboring countries to tame the krazed killers, who control large swathes of rural central and southern Somalia.
According to the department, investigations indicate that one Mohammed Hussein Salad, Ahmed Hasan Ali Sulaiman Mataan, and Mohammed Ali Badaas are part of an al-Shabaab smuggling and weapons trafficking network in Yemen

[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] A violent mostly peaceful explosion on Wednesday rocked Balhaf facility, in the oil-rich province of Shabwah, southeastern 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... This was reported by Yemen News Portal, based on testimonies of local sources.
According to the source, a kaboom believed to be caused by a drone crash near the Balhaf facility, noting that the plane took off from the Ruwaik border area of Ma’rib, which is under the control of the Islah factions.
It was not immediately clear whether the attack was aimed at the facility or just a warning message to the French company operating there. It is also not yet confirmed who was behind the attack.
The attack comes amid rapid developments in Yemen, the latest of which was the decision to relocate the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC)’s militia stationed in Mukalla to protect the facility, not to mention the repeated threats from Sanaa to foreign companies operating in the oil and gas fields
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] A tribal sheikh and a military officer in the Islah party, with their companions, were kidnapped in Tur Al Baha area, west of UAE militia-held restive Lahj ... a Yemeni governate located in the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula. It is the stomping grounds on the southern secessionist al-Harak movement province.
Media sources confirmed that the button men from al-Sabiha area kidnapped the sheikh Abdo Mohammed al-Mikhlafi and Wajdi Fahd Hamoud al-Mikhlafi, an officer in the Protection Forces, and a number of their companions, on Monday in al-Baha area, while they were returning to Taiz from Aden city.
Al-Mikhlafi was assigned by one of the security leaders of Islah in Taiz, to go to Aden to resolve the dispute in the case of the killing of one of al-Sabiha’s sons in Taiz, the sources added.
Earlier, al-Sabiha tribes demanded those accused of killing one of their sons to be handed over in exchange for the release of al-Mikhlafi and his lover companions.
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] A little girl was killed and four others were maimed on Wednesday when an bomb went off in a military vehicle in center of Taiz city, southwest 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... Informed sources said that unidentified button men detonated an bomb in a military vehicle of Islah Party bully boyz in Qubbat al-Ma’swar area, which was parking in front of a restaurant. As a result, a girl was killed and four others, including a woman and a child, who happened to pass from the street at the moment of the earth-shattering kaboom.
The sources confirmed that the girl died as a result of being hit by a fatal shrapnel in the head, while the maimed were taken to a hospital.
The explosion occurred after a number of Islah button men entered the restaurant to eat lunch, without injuring any of them, the sources added.
The number of terrorist bombings with improvised bombs increased with the UAE’s tendency to control the areas under the control of Islah in al-Hujariyah and the city of Taiz.
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The government loyal to Saudi-led coalition began on Wednesday evacuating the last of the Southern Transitional Council (STC)’s brigades from Hadhramaut province,
This is coinciding with the escalation of tribal demands for the exit of those forces stationed west of Mukalla city.
A military committee affiliated with the Ministry of Defense in the pro-coalition government arrived at "Barashid" Camp.
Southern media, quoting sources in the defense ministry of the pro-coalition government, reported that the committee informed the brigade leadership to prepare to move to the neighboring province of Shabwa.
This move came two days after a demonstration by "Al-Hamom" tribes, the largest tribes of the Hadhramaut coast, to demand the exit of the brigade.
The brigade’s exit stated that it was done with the STC’s approval to pressure the removal of the forces of the First Military District stationed in the oil-rich province, whose exit the tribes require in return for the exit of the Barashid Brigade.

[IsraelTimes] Footage shows convoy of military vehicles coming under rock attack in Ramallah area; Paleostinian shot after allegedly hurling Molotov cocktails at troops
Israeli troops operated extensively throughout the West Bank in the predawn hours of Wednesday morning, arresting 12 wanted Paleostinians, the military said.
The Israel Defense Forces launched major arrest operations after a series of Paleostinian attacks that killed 19 people earlier this year. Another Israeli woman was killed in a suspected attack last month, and another four soldiers have been killed in the West Bank in attacks and during the arrest operations.
Footage circulated online showed Paleostinians hurling stones, cinderblocks, and other heavy objects at a convoy of Israeli military vehicles in the town of al-Bireh near Ramallah.
The IDF did not confirm if any arrests were made in the Paleostinian city.
In the village of Abu Dis on the outskirts of Jerusalem, the IDF said troops detained four Paleostinians over suspected involvement in terror activities, and another suspect in the Aida refugee camp near Bethlehem.
In Nablus as troops arrested a wanted Paleostinian, sounds of gunfire were heard in the area, the military said.
The 12 suspects were taken to be questioned by the Shin Bet security agency.
The military said no troops were hurt during the overnight raids.
In a separate raid on Tuesday afternoon, Border Police said officers arrested a member of the Lion’s Den gang in a Paleostinian town near Nablus.
According to a police front man, Suhaib Akef Jamil Shtayyeh was detained by undercover troops in a store in the town of Salem.
Police said Shtayyeh was suspected of being a member of the Lion’s Den terror squad, which has grabbed credit for numerous shooting attacks in the Nablus area in recent months. Shtayyeh was also transferred to the Shin Bet for further questioning.
He is the brother of Musab Shtayyeh, a wanted Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, man who was arrested by the Paleostinian Authority last month, and had also been tied to Lion’s Den.
[JPost] It's wrong when the Paleos do it, same as when the settlers do it
Agreed.

Not a good trend. They must have been exhibiting their displeasure at having to share space with paleos. What's rioty about that? Not cool.
[JPost] Udai Tamimi killed IDF solder Noa Lazar last week. On Wednesday, after 11 days on the run, he tried to kill another Israeli and was stopped.
The manhunt for the Shuafat checkpoint killer came to an end on Wednesday night when he was shot dead in a failed shooting attack at the entrance to Ma’aleh Adumim, south of the Israeli capital.
The terrorist, east Jerusalem resident 22-year-old Udai Tamimi, arrived at the entrance to the West Bank city and opened fire at nearby security personnel. According to United Hatzalah volunteer EMT Akiva Skolnick, the terrorist was killed by returning fire from the guards. A grenade and knife were found on his person.
"Two highly experienced security guards that were at the checkpoint at the city entrance neutralized the terrorist immediately, with bravery and a lot of resourcefulness and without fear."
Ma’aleh Adumim mayor Benny Kashriel
The shooter was responsible for the killing of 18-year-old Military Police officer Noa Lazar on October 8 when he opened fire at a checkpoint near the Jerusalem neighborhood of Shuafat . A 30-year-old security guard remains in intensive care, sedated and on a ventilator. A third person, a soldier, was also injured.
For 11 days, security forces had been searching for Tamimi. Israel Police, Shin Bet and Border Police had arrested several people suspected of aiding the terrorist on Monday night, seizing weapon parts, cartridges and vests.
Lazar's family thanked security forces for their work after the attack at Ma’aleh Adumim.
[BenarNews] A severely bruised body found floating in a river along the Thai-Malay border belongs to a Deep South holy warrior who went missing after allegedly being kidnapped last month, the BRN rebel group said Wednesday, warning that the killing might harm peace talks with Thailand.
