[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Taliban authorities publicly executed a convicted murderer by gunfire in a sports stadium on Monday, officials said, the third death penalty carried out in Afghanistan in a matter of days.
The man - found guilty of a January 2022 knife murder - was executed in northern Sheberghan city on a death warrant signed by Taliban chief Hibatullah Akhundzada, a Supreme Court statement said.
The statement identified the condemned man as Nazar Muhammad and said his case "was examined very thoroughly and repeatedly".
He was shot five times in front of the family of his victim - including women and children - as well as thousands of onlookers in the stadium, a local provincial official told AFP.

I could accept a toned down version of this here in the USA. Given the current US justice system takes 20+ years.
As I have said in the past.
I support a mandate that the execution of a murderer should be in the same general physical manner used to kill the victim(s) and all appeals held within 5 years.

[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] Dozens of people were killed in two separate attacks on a mosque and a church Burkina Faso ...The country in west Africa that they put where Upper Volta used to be. Its capital is Oogadooga, or something like that. Its president used to be Blaise Compaoré, who took office in 1987 and was chased out in 2014. Now it's the usual army officer type guy, Captain Ibrahim Traore, running things, who's just doing a bang-up job unless he's already been deposed... on Sunday, French Press Agency reported on Monday, citing security and local sources.
A security source stated, "Armed individuals attacked a mosque in Natiaboni on Sunday at 5 a.m. (local time and Greenwich Mean Time), resulting in the deaths of dozens." A resident confirmed via phone that "all the victims are Moslems, most of them men who had gathered at the mosque for prayers."
Another local source clarified that the button men "entered the city early in the morning, surrounded the mosque, and then opened fire on the worshipers who were there to perform prayers. Several of them were killed by gunfire, including a prominent religious scholar."
The same source added that "military personnel and volunteers (civilian helpers to the army) were also targeted by these hordes, who came in large numbers," noting a "major attack" due to the number of attackers who also caused significant material damage.
On the same day as the mosque attack, at least 15 people were killed and two injured by button men during a Mass at a Catholic church in northern Burkina Faso, according to the prosecutor for the Diocese of Dori, Father Jean-Pierre Sawadogo.
Several other attacks occurred yesterday, notably against the Tankwal military camp (east), and against the Rapid Intervention Battalion 16 near Kongoussi (north) and the Mixed Battalion in the Wahigoya area (north).
Burkina Faso has been witnessing bloody attacks since 2015 attributed to movements affiliated with al-Qaeda and the 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.... Estimates suggest that these attacks have resulted in the deaths of about 20,000 people and displaced more than two million from their homes.

[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The "Eekad" platform published on Sunday an investigation into the suspicious activities practiced by the UAE on Abdul-Kuri Island, one of the islands of the 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... i Socotra Archipelago.
The platform said that it monitored the movements of unidentified ships to the UAE military base on Abdul-Kuri Island, adding that those movements serve regional parties in reference to the Israeli occupation entity.
The Eekad investigation quoted a report published by the American magazine "Parking Defense" in 2022, saying that Western countries are interested in developing "Israeli" air defense capabilities, including the Yemeni Socotra Archipelago, under the supervision of the US Central Command.
The investigation revealed that construction work was continuing on Abdul-Kuri Island, noting that a communications tower had been erected, the two sea lanes that had previously been built on the island were cancelled, and a new lane was constructed in the south of the island to avoid what the platform described as "Iran's Houthi sock puppets ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him... attacks," in addition to increasing the length of the runway and the density of supplies arriving to the island in an unprecedented manner.
The Eekad platform indicated that these preparations in Abdul-Kuri may be part of a military-intelligence integration that includes Emirati and Western bases overlooking the Gulf of Aden, such as al-Rayyan, Mayon, and Mocha bases.
The platform noted these activities came after the events of October 7, according to the analysis of satellite images from the "Sentinel Hub."

the death of a civilian and the injury of eight others
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] Factions affiliated with the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) have installed a loyalist official by force of arms in the city of Aden, which is under the control of the Saudi-led coalition.
Medical sources in the city reported that the STC’s members stormed the office of Abdullah al-Qaisi, director of Physiotherapy and Prosthetics Center, and imposed one of their loyalists by force of arms, under the directive of the Aden Health Director, Ahmed Muthanna al-Beishi, who is affiliated with the STC.
The sources added that the incident caused panic among the employees and disabled individuals, including children, women, and maimed individuals who were at the center.
Despite the directive of the Minister of Health in the pro-coalition government to continue the work of the general director of the center in Aden, as he was appointed by ministerial decision, the STC’s forces imposed their own official.
Meanwhile, ...back at the revival hall, the SWAT team had finally arrived... employees and staff at the center in the Mansoura area organized a protest condemning the armed raid on the center and rejecting the decision of the health office director.
This comes as part of the STC’s regional policy to uproot employees loyal to the Islah Party and other southern components opposed to the Emirati presence in the city.

[Regnum] Almost 50 accomplices of Islamists who transferred money to militants in Syria were detained in 22 regions of Russia. The Center for Public Relations of the FSB of the Russian Federation reported this on February 26.
The FSB, in cooperation with Rosfinmonitoring and the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, eliminated the international channel of resource support for militants from “Katiba Tawhid wal-Jihad”
Also spelt Katibat al Tawhid wal Jihad. The Syrian branch of this Al Qaeda franchise is the Uzbeks/Tajiks/Uighurs section allied to Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS, formerly al-Nusra Front) in Idlib Province, having pulled together fighters from the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, Katibat Imam al Bukhari, and Turkestan Islamic Party. It was listed a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) in March, 2022. Back home they mostly cause trouble in post-Soviet Central Asia, Russia and Xinjiang of the Uygur Autonomous Region of China.
(a terrorist organization whose activities are prohibited in the Russian Federation), which was coordinated by emissaries located in Syria.
“As a result of the activities carried out on the territory of 22 Russian regions, 49 members of an accomplice terrorist network involved in the collection and transfer of funds for the needs of militants operating in Syria were detained,” the report says.
It is noted that some of them spread radical Islamic ideology in the Muslim Ummah of the Russian Federation via the Internet and justified terrorism.
The department noted that criminal cases have been initiated, operational search activities and investigative actions are ongoing.
As Regnum reported, a student was taken into custody in the Altai Territory for trying to send a parcel of medicines abroad to the militants of the Islamic State (IS, a terrorist organization whose activities are prohibited in the Russian Federation). He established contact with terrorists, and during the conversation expressed a desire to go to Syria and join the ranks of a terrorist organization.
In addition, at the end of 2023, the student purchased a batch of medical supplies needed in real combat conditions. Next, he sent the parcel abroad to the address specified by the “curators” in the interests of a terrorist organization. The mail was promptly seized by FSB operatives. A criminal case has been initiated on this fact.
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] La Belle France has deported a Tunisian holy man who allegedly called the country's flag satanic.
Mahjoub Mahjoubi, 52, was flown to North Africa just 12 hours after his arrest over sermons said to go against French values.
His deportation last Thursday is seen as a demonstration of tough immigration laws brought in by president Emmanuel Macron.
Mr Mahjoubi had gone viral on social media after apparently referring to La Belle France's three-coloured flag as 'satanic'.
He was arrested and deported despite living in the country since the 1980s and raising five children there.
Unlike them he did not have French citizenship and had his residency permit cancelled.
His deportation last Thursday is seen as a demonstration of tough immigration laws brought in by president Emmanuel Macron
Increasingly, we see people live in this country but who decry and insult long-held British values. Even so, we tolerate their odious presence here.
Yet in La Belle France, a Tunisian holy man is arrested, during a protest, for anti-Semitic rhetoric and abusing the national flag and he is deported 12 hours later, despite having lived in the country for 38 years.
If the French can do it, why can't we?
The imam also referred to 'the Jewish people as the enemy' and called for 'the destruction of Western society', the indictment said.
He also allegedly described the tricolore — without saying he meant the French flag — as of 'no value to Allah'.
Mr Mahjoubi, who runs a construction company, claimed it had been a slip of the tongue, adding: 'I will fight to return to La Belle France, where I have lived for 40 years.'
He said his family, including his youngest child who is in hospital for cancer treatment, depended entirely on him.
'My lawyer is going to take legal action in La Belle France. If the court does not grant me justice, I will appeal, and then I will appeal to the European Court of Human Rights,' he added.
'I did not insult the Jewish community, nor the flag of La Belle France.'
Interior minister Gerald Darmanin said that the expulsion was a demonstration that a recently approved immigration law 'makes La Belle France stronger'.
The law toughening migration conditions was seen as part of the government's response to the rise of the far Right in opinion polls.
'Firmness is the rule,' said Mr Darmanin, who slammed what he called a 'radical imam who made unacceptable comments'.
Mr Mahjoubi said his expulsion was an arbitrary decision and Mr Darmanin was using his case to 'create a buzz around the immigration law'.

You'd think they could finish off these deportations with a cherry on top by having some operators pick the guy up in a limo wherever they drop him for a one-way ride out into the countryside.

American way of assassination: you don't send an 00X super agent, you vilify the target in the NSM until one of the faithful act successfully.

Trump is a threat to the now established DC Swamp "Yangban" or "High-Songbun", if you like, type of class system.
They know they cannot have him elected in 2024 and still remain in power. But at the same time, they fear the backlash of the Constitutional adhering Right.
So I wonder if they will also go after certain SCOTUS members as time gets closer. Hoping for and "Emergency" Biden handlers appointment. Given they still need to pass rules on acceptable Free Speech, eliminate the 2nd Amendment and other issues that the Bill of Rights presents to the growing Authoritarian type practices of DC.

You cannot discount the possibility that this was a signal to Trump that his family and those dear to him are at risk of assassination if he continues.
There are people in Washington and overseas who are deadly serious about stopping Trump and his possible reversal of the American decline and fracturing well underway.

Yes, but...
A dusty letter that could be opened by anyone is pretty innocuous. I would expect something with more of a signature.

[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad movement in Palestine, announced Sunday evening that a Zionist soldier had been sniped by the resistance snipers south of the Zaytoun neighborhood in Gaza City.
Earlier on Sunday, the Al-Quds Brigades said that they bombed with mortar shells a position of enemy soldiers in the vicinity of the Abu Absal Gate, east of Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip.
For its part, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades announced that its fighters were engaged in fierce clashes with the Zionist enemy soldiers and their military vehicles with machine guns in the Al-Taqaddum axis in the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza.
More on this story from yesterday, which reported:
The underground routes connected the Turkish hospital bordering the camps in the center of the Strip to the Israa University building in the south of Gaza City, reaching as far as the area of Zeitoun.
Another 10 kilometer long (🤯) terror tunnel in Gaza was revealed by the IDF. The tunnel goes under a hospital and a university 👇
Just imagine what they could have built instead, using these billions of dollars in “humanitarian aid”... pic.twitter.com/nXiZsTj3nP
The IDF says the tunnel network, more than 10 kilometers long, passes under Ottoman Turkish-Paleostinian Friendship Hospital and a nearby university, and reaches as far as the Zeitoun neighborhood of 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 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.

According to the IDF, the tunnel was used by both Hamas ...a regional Iranian catspaw,... ’s Gaza City and Central Camps brigades, to move operatives between the areas.
The IDF says it discovered living quarters, bathrooms, and weapons depots in the tunnels, as well as the bodies of several Hamas operatives.

I’ve begun to wonder if that is why Israel is not destroying the entire tunnel system as they find it, NN2N1, but just key sections along each route.
[NYPOST] The Israel Defense Forces says it killed a senior Hezbollah commander in an Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... that targeted a car driving down the streets of southern Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... on Monday.Video of the strike shows the car carrying Hezbollah’s Hajir chief Hassan Hussein Salami driving through the village of Majadel as an IDF aircraft locks in on the vehicle.
A bomb is quickly dropped on the car, which erupts into flames and crashes into a nearby building before stopping.
A vehicle that was driving on the other side of the road and was right next to the car carrying Salami when the airstrike hit avoided the blast and sped away.
The IDF said Salami belonged to the terror group’s Nasser unit and had been in charge of numerous attacks carried out against the Jewish state along the northern border, including the recent missile attacks targeting two military bases.
Hezbollah officials confirmed Salami’s death on Monday, but the Iran-backed terror group did not identify him as a commander.
Along with the strike that killed Salami, Israeli warplanes killed at least two Hezbollah members in the Bekaa Valley on Monday, the deepest attack into Lebanon since hostilities surged with the terror group over the war in 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 Hamas with 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... "Its aggression on Baalbek or any other areas will not remain without response," Hezbollah politician Hassan Fadlallah said of the attacks during a televised funeral of a fellow murderous Moslem.
Following the warning, Hezbollah launched 60 Katyusha rockets aimed at Israel’s army headquarters in the Golan Heights, one of the most intense attacks so far.
The IDF did not report any injuries as a result of the barrage in Golan Heights.
Lebanon’s Iran-backed Hezbollah on Monday fired a barrage of 60 Katyusha rockets at the Golan Heights. Footage circulating on social media shows several rockets impacting and exploding near a bus carrying passengers, who quickly disembarked to take cover.
Salami’s rank is equivalent to a brigade commander. The IDF said Salami was the commander of a regional unit in Hezbollah and oversaw attacks on IDF troops and Israeli communities in northern Israel. Recent actions that Salami was involved in included anti-tank missile attacks on Kiryat Shmona and on the base of the 769th "Hiram" Regional Brigade, according to the IDF.
Later, the IDF said it struck further Hezbollah targets in southern Leb, including the site from which the barrage of rockets was launched. Sites targeted by fighter jets in Ayta ash-Shab included buildings used by the terror group, the IDF said. The rocket launch site from which Hezbollah fired some 60 rockets at the Golan was located in the village of Kawkaba, and it too was struck by a fighter jet.
The IDF said a tank also shelled a building used by Hezbollah in Kafr Kila earlier in the day.
Earlier Monday, Hezbollah downed an Israeli Air Force drone, an Elbit Hermes 450 model, over the Nabatieh area in southern Lebanon with a surface-to-air missile. The drones are used by the IAF for surveillance and attacks.
In response to the incident, the IDF said it launched the strikes on Hezbollah’s air defense unit near Baalbek.
The Israeli Air Force also struck the downed aircraft in the Nabatieh area, The Times of Israel learned. Such actions are taken to prevent sensitive tech from falling into the hands of the enemy.
