[ShabelledNews] More than 427,000 people have been internally displaced within Somalia in the first 10 months of 2024, the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) said Tuesday.
According to the UNHCR-led Protection and Solutions Monitoring Network (PSMN), the rate of internal displacement due to conflict and insecurity increased significantly in October, with Gedo, Bay and Banadir regions in southern Somalia recording the highest inflows of displaced populations.
The PSMN, which has been tracking internal displacement trends for the past 17 years, recorded about 66,000 internal displacements in October, of which 50,000 were attributed to conflict and insecurity, while 3,000 were due to climate-induced shocks such as drought and floods, the UNHCR said in its operational update released in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia.
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [KavkazUzel] Ten children have been returned from Syria to Russia; after examination they will be transferred to relatives in Dagestan.
ISIS Lion Cubs returned from the al-Hol camp, where the SDF stashed the women and children captured during the reconquest of the Islamic State caliphate. Rudaw, the Kurdish news site, has nothing about it yet, but they’ll catch up. Dagestan has been more responsible than most about taking their people back.
According to Marina Yezhova, the Commissioner for Children's Rights in Dagestan, 26 children whose parents are from the republic have been returned to Russia from Syria. The children will soon be handed over to relatives living in Dagestan.
"A group of 26 children arrived, 10 of them are Dagestanis. They will be handed over to their families after a medical examination and rehabilitation. In total, 383 children have been returned to the Republic of Dagestan since the beginning of the campaign to return children from armed conflict zones," TASS quoted Yezhova as saying on November 22.
There are still 1,200 children from Dagestan remaining in refugee camps in the Middle East, she said.
The Russian Presidential Commissioner for Children's Rights, Maria Lvova-Belova, clarified in her Telegram channel that a group of 26 children from Syria was returned on November 22.
Let us recall that, according to various sources, there are hundreds or even thousands of children from Dagestan, Chechnya and other regions of the Caucasus in the Middle East. Their lives and health are in particular danger after the Islamic State terrorist organization, banned in Russia by the court, began to suffer large-scale defeats, according to the Caucasian Knot article " Children of the Caliphate: What Awaits Them After ISIS".
Time to join the rest of the Irish Jews in Israel?
[IsraelTimes] As already critical atmosphere intensifies since the Oct. 7 massacre, new report reveals unwelcoming classrooms and skewed lessons on Jews that the government is slow to address
Dublin resident Justine Zapin’s two sons, ages 8 and 10, arrived at their public elementary school earlier this month to find Irish politician Chris Andrews outside handing out "Free Paleostine" bracelets to pupils.
The bracelets caused discomfort for the brothers and some of their Israeli classmates. When they asked a third classmate if he would be willing to remove his, he became upset and reported them to the teacher. The 8-year-old later said he "felt like he got in trouble" with his teacher for expressing his unease, while his older sibling faced peers questioning his objection with remarks like, "But Israel started the war," and "Israel’s killing babies."
After the Hamas ..a regional Iranian catspaw,... -led massacre on October 7, 2023, a classroom discussion implied that "the Jews deserved this," Zapin said, with objections receiving minimal response from school officials.
Some 1,200 men, women, and children were slaughtered in the full-scale invasion of southern Israel, and 251 were kidnapped to the 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 a rusty 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... Strip.
More recently, the school — part of the Educate Together network, which, according to its website promotes equality-based and inclusive education — dismissed a pupil’s Nazi salute as "boys being boys."
"There is clearly a culture in the school that is permissive, if not welcoming, to these sort of anti-Israel, anti-Jewish narratives," Zapin said.
Zapin’s sons’ experiences dovetail with the release of a report this month by education monitoring group IMPACT-se, which exposed profound distortions of the Holocaust, Israel, Judaism, and Jewish history in Irish textbooks.
In one example highlighted in the report, a religious studies textbook cited Islam as being "in favor of peace and against violence," while Judaism "believes violence and war are sometimes necessary to promote justice." The New Testament parable of the "Good Samaritan" is illustrated with an image of a boy wearing a Paleostinian scarf protesting against Israel.
A history textbook refers to Auschwitz — the Nazi concentration camp in Poland where over 1 million Jews were murdered — as a "prisoner of war camp."
In a children’s textbook retelling the story of Jesus, a comic strip contains the line, "Some people did not like Jesus," with disapproving figures depicted in distinctly Jewish attire, including tallits and kippahs. In another instance, Jesus is described as having lived in "Paleostine."
"Misrepresentations of historical facts can perpetuate narratives that challenge Israel’s legitimacy and foster political agendas against the state of Israel," the report said.
IMPACT-se CEO Marcus Sheff said in a statement issued with the report’s release that the Irish curriculum "views Jews and Judaism as a lesser part of Ireland’s social fabric," and that growing hostility towards Jews and Israelis in Ireland should therefore "come as no surprise."
PEOPLE OF THE TEXTBOOKS
On November 7, the Irish parliament passed a non-binding motion conceding that "genocide is being perpetrated before our eyes by Israel in Gaza," with Irish Foreign Minister Micheal Martin saying that Ireland further intends to join South Africa’s case against Israel for genocide at the International Court of Justice before the end of the year.
Ireland is one of eight EU countries where IMPACT-se is analyzing textbooks, Sheff told The Times of Israel.
"Clearly there is a problem in Europe," he said. "Textbooks play a unique role in society, they create the societies of the future and are capable of acting as barriers to radicalization, which young people might be receiving from other elements, from parents, from media, and from social media."
Responding to the report, Ireland’s Chief Rabbi Yoni Wieder said that while some of the inaccuracies relating to Judaism and Jewish history could be chalked up to "sloppy research and a lack of familiarity," those concerning the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict were likely intentional.
"It’s hard to understate the extent to which Israel features in Irish public discourse," Wieder said. "For over a year, politicians and the mainstream media have demonized Israel on a near daily basis."
"The IDF is routinely portrayed as intentionally targeting children and civilians. No mention is ever made of the lengths it goes to protect innocent lives. Rarely is there any talk of the atrocities perpetrated by Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran, or the threat they pose to Israel and to their own people," he said.
Weider cited Dublin City Councilor Punam Rane, who, in an October 7 meeting coinciding with the first anniversary of the Hamas onslaught, claimed that "the entire US economy is ruled by the Jews, by Israel."
Irish Jews report feeling much more isolated, Wieder noted, with many voicing a "fear of speaking out." The rise in "inflammatory rhetoric has created a context in which antisemitism can thrive," he said, but cautioned against "overstating the extent of antisemitism."
Some Jews "feel very frightened and frequently think about what could happen to them or their families, while others feel safe and don’t see any major cause for concern," he added.
The Jewish Representative Council of Ireland, the main body of representation for the Irish Jewish community, told the London-based Jewish Chronicle that young Jews felt "under siege" in the classroom, forcing a number of them to change schools due to antisemitism. JRCI chair Maurice Cohen said his efforts to discuss concerns with Irish Education Minister Norma Foley were repeatedly denied. Her department told the newspaper, "There is no evidence of antisemitism being taught in Irish schools."
Zapin, who moved to Dublin from the US several years ago to pursue a PhD, is now considering which country to move to next, despite having been "very, very happy" in Ireland until October 7. Meanwhile,
...back at the comedy club, Boogie was cracking himself up, but nobody else seemed to be getting the non-stop jokes... she is working on transferring her children to Dublin’s Jewish school.
"It comes down to how we want our children to learn, what we want them to learn and how we can keep them and us safe," she said.

Confessed Mohammedans currently comprise something like two percent of us antisemitic alcoholic simian bogtrotters. Officially, anyway. Fewer up North.
The New Alarm Clock
"We're not yet the Emerald Isle!"
"And you're probably safe for a while.
Well, until the Brits quit.
Then you're neck-deep in shit,
Sure, Islamic Republican style."
[Rudaw] Diyarbakir province in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund... ’s Kurdish-majority southeast on Saturday banned chants of the iconic Jin, Jiyan, Azadi (Woman, Life, Freedom) phrase during demonstrations, according to politicians and media reports.
During a demonstration by the pro-Kurdish, women-only party the Free Women Movement in Diyarbakir (known to Kurds as Amed) on Saturday, security forces told protesters to stop chanting "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi," citing a decision from the governor’s office that had declared the phrase "propaganda for a terrorist organization," reported Mezopotamya Agency, a Turkey-based pro-Kurdish outlet.
The media outlet posted videos in which a police officer could be heard using a megaphone to tell protesters to refrain from using "organizational terminology" when the crowd chanted "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi."
The protesters ignored the police warnings and continued their chants and ululations.
Rudaw English has reached out to the Diyarbakir governor’s office, but they were not immediately available for comment.
The slogan "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" was first used in the early 2000s by the Women’s Protection Units (YPJ), an all-female, Kurdish armed force in Syria. It regained popularity and spread around the world in 2022 during nationwide protests in Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. 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. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... sparked by the death of Zhina Mahsa Amini, who was killed while in the custody of the morality police for allegedly wearing a lax hijab.
Parliament members and leaders of Turkey’s pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) condemned the governor’s decision.
"Yes, the Diyarbakir governor’s office has made such an unreasonable decision. Unfortunately, in Turkey, Kurds and Kurdish cities are no longer governed by the rule of law. They are instead ruled by the arbitrary practices of governors, district governors, and security chiefs, which lack any legal basis," Mehmet Kamac, a DEM Party MP from Diyarbakir, told Rudaw English.
Kamac said the governors are overstepping their roles and "assume the roles of the judiciary and courts."
"The issue is not just about banning slogans. From the appointment of trustees to the arrest of politicians, it is governors, not courts, who have become the main decision-makers. The slogan ’Jin Jiyan Azadi’ is not something a governor can ban," Kamac added.
He said they do not recognize the decision by the governor’s office and they will continue using the chant.
Several DEM party members have written the slogan on their social media accounts and the party issued a statement vowing to keep using the phrase.
"Jin Jiyan Azadi is not just a slogan, it is a truth and the philosophy of our struggle. You cannot erase this truth or turn us away from our fight for freedom by imposing bans. Our struggle will continue, and Jin Jiyan Azadi will keep lighting our path forward," the party said.
There were protests this weekend across Turkey’s Kurdish-majority provinces after the Interior Ministry announced it was removing several more Kurdish mayors from their posts on the allegations they have ties to terrorism and replacing them with trustees.
International rights groups have slammed the policy of removing the mayors.
"Denying hundreds of thousands of voters their chosen local government elected representatives and replacing them with the government’s own appointees not only undermines the democratic process, but violates the right to free and fair elections," Hugh Williamson, Europa ...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum... and Central Asia director at Human Rights Watch, said earlier this month.
[WashingtonExaminer] The organizations, which include donor-advised funds shifting around millions of dollars in untraceable funds, Soros-backed philanthropies, and large legal groups, collectively spent at least $101.9 million on programs intended to aid illegal immigrants colonists in avoiding deportation. While some of the programs paid for by these nonprofit organizations involved advocacy efforts, the vast majority were oriented toward providing immigrants colonists with legal resources to thwart deportation.
"They realize if they paralyze the legal system, they win," Federation for American Immigration Reform Media Director Ira Mehlman told the Washington Examiner. "The longer you are delayed, the longer you stay here before you see your day in court, the less likely it is that you can be removed."
"Clearly, tying up the courts is a tactic in winning this ideological battle," he continued.
While these charities shoveled tens of millions of dollars into the legal system on behalf of immigrants colonists facing deportation, the number of new migrants colonists illegally entering the country spiked. Border Patrol had over 5 million encounters with individuals attempting to enter the country between fiscal 2021 and 2023, according to government statistics. As the number of people in the country illegally increases rapidly, immigration authorities have had difficulty processing them, particularly those arriving and claiming asylum, in part due to the massive strain placed on the legal system.
The backlog of cases in U.S. immigration courts reached a record 3 million in November 2023, working out to an average of 4,500 pending cases per judge.
While some migrants colonists do have a legitimate claim to asylum, "if you throw lawyers and money at every single economically motivated undocumented Democrat, then the system basically just grinds to a halt," Simon Hankinson, a senior research fellow in Heritage Foundation’s Border Security and Immigration Center, told the Washington Examiner.
La Raza Community Resource Center, an immigration nonprofit organization based out of the Socialist paradise of San Francisco ...where God struck dead Anton LaVey, home of the Sydney Ducks, ruled by Vigilance Committee from 1859 through 1867, reliably and volubly Democrat since 1964... , was one of the biggest spenders among the groups resisting deportation efforts, disbursing $14.1 million between 2021 and 2023 for a program providing legal services to asylum-seekers and migrants colonists facing deportation. Immigrant Justice Corps, meanwhile, is a New York-based charity that spent $20.2 million over the same period on a fellowship program placing recent college graduates at nonprofit organizations across the country to provide illegal migrants colonists with legal services.
Research suggests that the efforts of nonprofit organizations to provide illegal immigrants colonists with legal services may be effective in preventing deportation. A 2014 study conducted by Stanford Law School found that migrants colonists with lawyers were three times more likely to win their deportation cases than those without legal representation, for example. Only 30% of individuals in immigration courts are represented by attorneys, according to a Syracuse University report.
Legal Services of New Jersey, a nonprofit organization that provides free legal representation in civil rights litigation to low-income residents of the state, was also a major force in antideportation efforts between 2021 and 2022. The organization distributed $12.5 million worth of grants over that period to help other organizations provide "legal assistance for individuals facing detention or deportation."
Pangea Legal Services, located in San Francisco, spent over $5 million on providing representation to asylum-seekers and people who entered the country illegally between 2021 and 2023. In those years, the nonprofit organization served nearly 1,500 clients through its program, according to its tax forms.
Hankinson told the Washington Examiner that the Biden administration wants to keep illegal immigrants colonists in the country "for three reasons: globalist ideology, political leverage to force another amnesty, and hopes that if they become citizens, they will all vote Democrat — hopes which seem less credible after November 5."
"NGOs are motivated by ideology and, increasingly, by the massive income they now get from government-funded illegal immigration," he continued.
Meanwhile,
...back at the argument, Jane reached into her purse for her .38... Mehlman said the reasons nonprofit organizations fight to keep illegal immigrants colonists in the United States range from ideological to economic, as many NGOs receive funding from business interests that see them as a source of "cheap labor."
The Soros family’s Foundation to Promote Open Society donated $500,000 to the Immigrant Legal Resource Center in 2021 to support its "New Way Forward" campaign. The campaign pushed changes to the legal system that would end the automatic deportation of some criminal aliens, end the mandatory detention of illegal aliens, and decriminalize entering the U.S. without proper documentation. The Soros family’s foundation also gave the Transgender Law Center $250,000 in 2021 to "support Black LGBTQIA+ migrants colonists through organizing and base-building, deportation defense and strategic communications."
Meanwhile,
...back at the argument, Jane reached into her purse for her .38... former Sequoia Capital partner Michael Moritz’s family foundation pumped $3 million into the Immigrant Legal Resource Center to support its "deportation defense" operations between 2021 and 2022. Moritz has also donated millions of dollars to organizations opposing Republicans.

"Charity Starts At Home" & "A Leg Up, Not A Life", all come to mind.
Given the 83% cost of living increase over the last 24 years, and salaries paid by too many charities, we quit giving to others to give for us, many years ago.
We instead take care of our locals, that life has screwed over.
An after Obama, The Obama/Biden coup, Covid, and Hurricane Helene we have plenty in real need of help.

Well, you have the house and senate. All it takes is amending the law that organizations the support activities that are direct contradiction to standing law or promote obstruction to those laws lose their tax free status.
[NY Post] Pakistan’s capital was put under a security lockdown on Sunday ahead of protests by supporters of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan calling for his release.
Highways leading to Islamabad through which supporters of Khan, led by members of his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, are expected to approach the city and gather near the parliament, have been blocked.
Most major roads of the city have also been blocked by the government with shipping containers and large contingents of police and paramilitary personnel have been deployed in riot gear, while mobile phone services have been suspended.
Gatherings of any sort have been banned under legal provisions, the Islamabad police said in a statement.
Global internet watchdog NetBlocks said on X, formerly known as Twitter, that live metrics showed WhatsApp messaging services had been restricted ahead of the protests.
A key Khan aid, Ali Amin Gandapur, who is the chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province and is expected to lead the largest convoy into Islamabad, called on people to gather near the entrance of the city’s red zone, known as "D Chowk".
Islamabad’s red zone houses the country’s parliament building, important government installations, as well as embassies and foreign institutions’ offices.
"Khan has called on us to remain there till all our demands are met," he said in a video message on Saturday.
The PTI’s demands include the release of all its leaders, including Khan, as well as the resignation of the current government due to what it says was a rigged election this year.
Khan has been in jail since August last year and, since being voted out of power by parliament in 2022, faces a number of charges ranging from corruption to instigation of violence.
He and his party deny all the charges.

[KhaamaPress] At least 42 people, including women and kiddies, were killed on Nov. 21 when button men ambushed a passenger vehicle in Pakistain’s restive Kurram district. The victims were reportedly Shiite Moslems, marking the latest episode in a cycle of tit-for-tat violence that has plagued this volatile region for decades.
Nestled in Pakistain’s former Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) along the Afghanistan border, Kurram has long been a flashpoint for ethnic, sectarian, and tribal conflict. The district’s mix of Shia and Sunni Moslem populations has made it a focal point for sectarian violence, with deadly festivities erupting periodically and often spiraling into prolonged unrest.
The roots of the current strife trace back to the 1980s, during the Afghan-Soviet War, when religious militancy surged in the region. Foreign-backed groups exploited sectarian differences, and Shia-Sunni festivities escalated as communities vied for dominance. A particularly violent mostly peaceful outbreak in 2007 claimed hundreds of lives, displaced thousands, and entrenched divisions that persist today.
In recent months, sectarian tensions in Kurram have reached a boiling point. Retaliatory attacks — ambushes, bombings, and assassinations — have become disturbingly frequent. Improvised bombs (IEDs) and armed skirmishes have left dozens dead and many more injured. Civilians, caught in the crossfire, bear the brunt of the violence, with thousands forced to flee their homes.
What distinguishes the violence in Kurram is its cyclical nature. Attacks by one group often provoke immediate retaliation, perpetuating a relentless chain of bloodshed. Both Shia and Sunni Death Eater groups have leveraged alliances with external actors, including the Afghan government and Iranian-backed militias, to bolster their positions. These alliances have only deepened the conflict and complicated efforts to restore order.
Local religious leaders have also played a role in fanning the flames. By exploiting sectarian divides for political or personal gain, they have further polarized communities. The competition for territorial control, resources, and political influence has turned Kurram into a battleground for sectarian supremacy.
Pakistain’s efforts to quell the violence have been hampered by a weak state presence in the tribal areas. While the integration of FATA into Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province in recent years aimed to bring these regions under formal governance, Kurram remains largely governed by tribal customs and local militias.
The military has conducted periodic operations to curb militancy in the region, but the root causes of the conflict — historical grievances, lack of governance, and sectarian divisions — remain unaddressed. This vacuum of authority has allowed krazed killer groups, such as Tehrik-e-Taliban ...Arabic for students... Pakistain (TTP), to exploit the chaos, using the region as a recruitment ground and inflaming tensions to further their ideological goals.
The ongoing violence has triggered a humanitarian crisis. Thousands of families have fled to neighboring districts or crossed into Afghanistan, where they face dire conditions in overcrowded shelters with limited access to food, water, and medical care. Relief efforts are hampered by the lack of security, leaving many displaced families without adequate assistance.
Kurram’s economy, already fragile, has been devastated. Trade routes are blocked, businesses shuttered, and agricultural activity disrupted. For many families, the loss of income has compounded their suffering, plunging the region into deeper poverty.
The crisis in Kurram reflects Pakistain’s broader struggle with sectarianism and extremism. While the government has made progress in curbing militancy in some parts of the country, the tribal areas remain vulnerable to violence due to entrenched grievances, weak governance, and the unchecked influence of gangs.
Without a comprehensive strategy to address the root causes of the conflict, Kurram risks becoming a microcosm of the challenges facing Pakistain. The cycle of violence here underscores the urgent need for robust governance, community engagement, and targeted efforts to bridge sectarian divides.
[KhaamaPress] For the fourth consecutive year, the United Nations ...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships... has rejected the Taliban ...Arabic for students... ’s request to assign Afghanistan’s seat to a representative of their group. This decision was made during a session of the Credentials Committee.
Diplomatic sources at the UN confirmed that during the Credentials Committee meeting on November 20, the Taliban’s request to allocate Afghanistan’s seat to their representative was denied.
In this session, the credentials of representatives from Afghanistan, Myanmar, and Libya were discussed.
The members of the Credentials Committee included representatives from the United States, China, and Russia. According to the committee chair’s recommendation, the decision regarding Afghanistan’s representative has been deferred and will be reviewed in a future session of the 77th UN General Assembly.
This marks the fourth instance in which the United Nations has declined the Taliban’s request to take over Afghanistan’s seat. Currently, Naseer Ahmad Faiq, the representative of Afghanistan’s previous government, holds this position.
The Taliban had earlier nominated Suhail Shaheen as their representative to the UN. However,
if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning... the United Nations has yet to officially recognize him as Afghanistan’s representative.
The continued denial of the Taliban’s request underscores the international community’s reluctance to legitimize the group’s rule, given ongoing concerns about human rights ...which are usually open to widely divergent definitions... , especially women’s rights, and inclusive governance in Afghanistan. T
he decision highlights the UN’s position of prioritizing broader global consensus over the Taliban’s unilateral demands.
This development signals that the Taliban will likely face persistent challenges in gaining international recognition. Until substantive reforms and commitments are demonstrated, the global community remains hesitant to grant the group official representation on key international platforms like the United Nations.
[Ynet] Sources close to Tehran's regime claim Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei elected his second son for the role and may abdicate even before his death
The report claimed that 60 members of Iran's Assembly of Experts convened on September 26 in an exceptionally unusual meeting at the elder Khamenei's demand. They were instructed to decide on the succession immediately, without prior notice and under strict confidentiality.
Despite initial opposition to both the decision and the process, the assembly ultimately reached a unanimous agreement to designate Mojtaba as the successor following the leader's and his representatives' insistence, which allegedly included direct threats.

And MACRON was rumored to have observed, “Now, THAT’S the way to run a free and fair republic: First, you become Supreme Leader for a few decades, then you hand it off to your kid. No fuss. No muss.”
#9
Mojtaba’s selection has stirred concerns due to his lack of government experience and official roles. Over the past two years, however, he has been steadily positioned to take on a significant role in the regime’s inner workings, signaling a calculated effort by Ali Khamenei to ensure a smooth transfer of power.
