[DAILYPOST.NG] At least 20 Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... snuffies were killed in a violent mostly peaceful confrontation with rival 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.... West Africa Province (ISWAP) fighters in Borno State, as ISWAP launched a surprise assault on their positions.
According to a post by security analyst Zagazola Makama on his official X handle on Tuesday, the clash took place on March 3 in the riverine areas of Abadam Local Government Area, extending into parts of the Diffa region in Niger Republic.
Makama revealed that the violence erupted like lava from a volcano after ISWAP operatives ordered local residents to clear thick vegetation between Dabar Giwa village in Kukawa Local Government Area and Garin Mallam Ya'u.
This action unintentionally exposed the positions of Boko Haram murderous Moslems, who had been hiding in the area since February 27 in preparation for a counteroffensive against ISWAP.
''Contrary to Boko Haram's planned ambush, ISWAP launched a well-coordinated offensive, targeting krazed killer camps located between Tumbun Kwatar Mota and Tumbun Marakirya, near a former ISWAP stronghold in Tumbun Gini,'' Makama stated.
The sudden attack caught Boko Haram fighters off guard, leading to the deaths of at least 20 krazed killers.
[SAHARAREPORTERS] Residents of Buni Yadi, the hometown of Yobe State Governor Mai Mala Buni, have expressed fear over the worsening security situation, with the rampaging Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... terrorists.
The Boko Haram bully boyz attacked the home of a police inspector, Malam Jibrin, in Buni Yadi town, Gujba Local Government Area, killing his two sons and setting their corpses and the house on fire, it was learnt.
The attack occurred in the early hours of Monday, around 1am in the Shuwari Baban Layi area of the town.
Jibrin, who serves as the crime officer at the Buni Yadi cop shoppe, managed to escape by scaling the fence of his house, according to Daily Trust.
Enraged by his escape, the Death Eaters turned on his two sons, aged 25 and 27, slaughtered them, and then set their bodies and the house ablaze.
''They arrived around 1am and operated uninterrupted until 1:54am. The situation has caused a lot of panic among residents,'' the source said.
A local vigilante revealed that the attackers are believed to be operating from the Buk and Talala areas, about 30 kilometers east of Buni Yadi.
''As it is now, nobody dares go up to the Damboa axis. Everybody, including the military, is aware of their presence,'' he said.
''It was the same area where they ambushed the military last month and killed an army commandant, along with several soldiers and vigilantes.''
Residents of Buni Yadi, the hometown of Governor Mai Mala Buni, expressed fear over the worsening security situation.
''People can no longer sleep with their eyes closed,'' said Muhammad Garba, a resident. ''With what is happening on the roads and within the town, nowhere is safe.''

[Regnum] A criminal case on the attempt on the lives of law enforcement officers and illegal arms trafficking was opened in Dagestan, where on the night of March 5, special services eliminated four militants during a counter-terrorism operation.
Four militants who were planning a terrorist attack on a facility of the regional administration of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs in Kaspiysk have been eliminated.
“The Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin, instructed the head of the Investigative Committee of Russia for the Republic of Dagestan, Dmitry Belyaev, to report on the progress of the investigation of the criminal case and the established circumstances,” added the message published on the Telegram channel of the Investigative Committee of Russia.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on March 5, a counter-terrorist operation regime was declared in the village of Semender in Makhachkala. Security forces eliminated a group of four armed bandits who resisted law enforcement officers.
On March 5, the head of Dagestan, Sergei Melikov, said that he considered the militant attack in Makhachkala to be a failed attempt to destabilize the region. He specified that the gang's activities were coordinated by members of the Islamic State group (a terrorist organization banned in the Russian Federation). No security forces or civilians were hurt. The counter-terrorism operation has now been lifted.
Residents of the Makhachkala village of Semender said they were alarmed by a night shootout in which security forces killed four militants. All of the dead were residents of Dagestan.
As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, last night a counter-terrorist operation regime was declared in the Makhachkala village of Semender. In a shootout, security forces killed four people. The Anti-Terrorist Committee declared the dead to be militants of the banned terrorist organization "Islamic State". At 06:20 Moscow time the counter-terrorist operation regime was lifted.
According to the Dagestan operational headquarters, security forces were checking information about possible preparations for a terrorist attack. During an attempt to detain them, several people opened fire from automatic weapons at traffic police officers. They were blocked in one of the houses, and residents of nearby houses were evacuated.
A resident of the village, Semender Abdul, reported that he heard shots at night and learned from acquaintances in the village that “there was a shootout with the police.”
"They said that it was the area of the final stop of the 77 bus route, not far from Vinogradnaya Street," he told a "Caucasian Knot" correspondent, noting that this was an area of private development and there were no important social facilities there.
A resident of Semender, Zaur, said that his brother, who lives in the area, called him and warned him not to leave the house because he could hear gunfire.
He reported that the road along the October Revolution Canal, not far from Moskovskaya and Vinogradnaya streets, was blocked. After the special operation was over, a neighbor told his brother that he was returning from work and the cordon had not yet been lifted. He was stopped by law enforcement officers to check his documents, after which he was released," Zaur told a "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
The introduction of the CTO legal regime gives security forces the authority to temporarily resettle people and tow cars from its zone of action, suspend the provision of communication services and the work of some enterprises, according to the "Caucasian Knot" reference " Counter-terrorist operation (CTO) regime ".
All those killed turned out to be residents of Dagestan
In connection with the shootout, a criminal case has been opened under Article 317 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (attempt on the life of law enforcement officers) and Article 222 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (illegal arms trafficking), the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for Dagestan reported today.
According to the investigation, all four of those killed were residents of Dagestan. "The investigation established that on March 5, 2025, at night, during operational activities, law enforcement officers in the Kirovsky District of Makhachkala eliminated four residents of the republic while offering armed resistance. During the clash, law enforcement officers and civilians were not injured," the department's website said.
Let us recall that the counter-terrorist operation in Dagestan was the first since June 2024, when Orthodox churches and synagogues were attacked in Derbent and Makhachkala. Six suspected militants were killed, more than 15 security forces and several civilians were killed.

[Regnum] In the North Caucasus in 2024, 27 members of illegal armed groups were neutralized. This was announced on March 5 by the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation Vladimir Kolokoltsev.
"Considerable attention was paid to the North Caucasus region. As a result of events carried out jointly with the Federal Security Service and the Russian National Guard, 27 active participants in illegal armed groups were neutralized last year," he said at an extended meeting of the department's board.
The minister added that another 135 members of illegal armed groups were detained.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on the night of March 5, a counter-terrorist operation (CTO) regime was declared in the village of Semender in Makhachkala. Security forces neutralized four armed bandits who were planning a terrorist attack on the regional police department facility in Kaspiysk. The criminals resisted law enforcement officers.
At the site of the armed clash with the militants and in a nearby cache, security forces discovered homemade bombs, grenades, and automatic firearms.
On March 5, Dagestan's head Sergei Melikov said he considered the militant attack in Makhachkala a failed attempt to destabilize the region. He specified that the gang's activities were coordinated by members of the Islamic State group (a terrorist organization banned in Russia). No security forces or civilians were hurt.
In Kyrgyzstan, operatives detained 30 members of a terrorist organization who were planning to commit terrorist attacks. This was reported on March 5 by the AKIPress publication, citing the State Committee for National Security (SCNS) of the republic.
“On February 27, State Committee for National Security officers detained 30 supporters of an underground terrorist cell, whose activities were coordinated by foreign centers of an international terrorist organization,” the article says.
It is noted that terrorist acts were planned against officials, employees of special services and law enforcement agencies. In addition, according to the publication, the detainees held meetings at which they promoted radical ideology and also collected money to finance terrorism. One of the suspects was also found to have a video instruction on how to make a homemade explosive device.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, earlier that day, a group of four militants was neutralized during a counter-terrorist operation in Dagestan. It was noted that the terrorists were planning to commit a terrorist act at a facility of the regional department of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs in Kaspiysk. The attackers resisted and opened fire on traffic police officers.
Because of this, a counter-terrorist operation (CTO) regime was declared in the village of Semender in Makhachkala. The operational headquarters in Dagestan also asked residents to be vigilant and provide comprehensive support to law enforcement agencies in the fight against extremism and terrorism.

[NYPOST] A fake bomb threat prompted an evacuation at Barnard College Wednesday evening as anti-Israel protesters occupied a campus building for a second consecutive week.
More than 50 NYPD officers in riot gear descended to the scene, ordering the more than 200 unruly keffiyeh-shrouded students to exit the Milstein Center and clear out at least 1,000 feet from the courtyard.
As cops struggled to remove protesters from the campus grounds, Columbia students joined in the fracas from across the street, chanting in solidarity with the Barnard students, “NYPD, KKK, they are all the same.”
Police eventually cleared the courtyard, but the students milled about on the lawn outside the building chanting, “no justice, no peace.”
After ignoring several orders to move a safe distance from the building, cops arrested at least nine people and took them into custody, sources said.
The NYPD announced shortly before 8 p.m. that the bomb threat was “investigated and cleared.”
The protesters had taken over the building, which serves as the academic hub of the elite private school, hanging an Old West-style “Wanted” poster and an effigy of school administrators in a startling escalation of their rhetoric.
Moments before the bomb threat was called in, the mob had been engaging in a raucous protest over two students who were expelled last month for barging into a class on modern Israel and tossing antisemitic flyers around the room.
An official department X account warned that “anyone who refuses to leave the location is subject to arrest.”
As the students barged into the building, they hung a large poster featuring Dean of Students Leslie Grinage on one of the building’s exterior plate windows, complete with Old West-style type.
“WANTED: Dean of Students Leslie Grinage for the expulsion of pro-Palestinian students. Reward for info leading to a meeting,” the poster read, which included a likeness of the administrator.
On the front door of the building, masked protesters hung a shoddy effigy — which was actually a plush puppet — of Barnard President Laura Rosenbury, who castigated student protesters for refusing to remove their masks in an op-ed in The Chronicle of Higher Education last week.
Video circulating on social media shows Barnard Vice President for Strategic Communications Robin Levine imploring the protesters to evacuate the Milstein Center due to the bomb threat.
“For the safety and security of our community and everyone in the building, you need to leave now,” Levine said. “This is not a joke.”
Before the bomb threat, Barnard sent out an email alerting the school community and denouncing the demonstration.
“Our academic mission is at the heart of what we do, and disruptions to that mission are an affront to the purpose of higher education and cannot be tolerated,” the missive read, in part.
“When masked disruptors first entered Milstein, classes were taking place, facilities were cleaning classrooms, and dining staff were preparing meals. We must not allow the actions of a few interfere with our mission. Campus activities outside of Milstein and throughout the rest of the campus are proceeding as normal.”
The school did not respond to follow-up questions about the bomb threat.
Last Wednesday, several dozen protesters stormed the campus’ Milbank Hall for several hours, egged on by pro-Hamas group Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine.
They demanded the expelled students be reinstated as well as amnesty for any protesters who were arrested for their actions during previous campus demonstrations.
A school security officer was injured in last week’s occupation, sending him to the hospital complaining of chest pains.
The Times of Israel has more about the pre-bomb protest action. This wasn’t just a bunch of students acting up for the fun of it, but a serious flex by dedicated Iranian proxies:
A group of protesters, most of whose faces were covered by keffiyehs and masks, entered Barnard’s Milstein Library, where they chanted anti-Israel slogans, waved Palestinian flags, beat a drum and carried an effigy of the college president.
Barnard is an affiliate of Columbia University and the protest groups include students from both institutions.
Jewish students at the scene shared photos showing the protesters distributed pamphlets by the “Hamas media office,” photos of the late Hezbollah terror chief Hassan Nasrallah, and wrote “Death to America” in the library guest book. Activists posted stickers around the protest that had the image of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, a mastermind of the October 7, 2023, attack who was killed in Gaza by Israeli forces last year.
Happening now: protesters @BarnardCollege are handing out pamphlets written by the Hamas Media Office justifying October 7th.
Barnard administrators handed out letters saying the disruption and library blockage was an “unauthorized activity” and that the protesters had refused to disperse, despite multiple warnings. The letter warned the protesters that campus security would “review your identification and escort you off of the Barnard campus.”
A very weak response, guaranteed to be ineffective.
Several hours into the protest, the NYPD said it was responding to a bomb threat at the location and that anyone who refused to leave was subject to arrest. The students refused to leave, saying they did not believe the bomb threat was real. Footage showed some protesters scuffling with police, shouting at officers and being detained. The NYPD did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Columbia said in a statement that Barnard is a separate institution, although it is affiliated, and called the disruption “not acceptable conduct.”
Golly.
The protest came a day after the Trump administration threatened to cut off more than $50 million in contracts with Columbia, and said it was reviewing more than $5 billion in federal grant commitments to the university, due to antisemitism.
The House Committee on Education and the Workforce, which has grilled universities over antisemitism since October 7, called the protest “shameful.”
In another warning, Trump said Tuesday that he will cut federal funding to any educational institution “that allows illegal protests,” in a post on his Truth Social platform.
[IsraelTimes] Ahmed Himouni and Mohammad Mesek used rifle and knife in October attack on and near light rail; 15 were also injured
Military engineers blew up the West Bank homes of two Paleostinian faceless myrmidons who murdered seven people and maimed 15 in Tel Aviv in October, the Israel Defense Forces said Wednesday.
Members of the elite Yahalom combat engineering unit and the Judea Regional Brigade demolished the homes of the two faceless myrmidons during operations in the West Bank city of Hebron overnight and in the morning, the IDF said.
The terrorists, Ahmed Himouni, 25, and Mohammad Mesek, 19, went on a shooting and stabbing spree at a light rail station in the Jaffa area of the city on October 1, just minutes before 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... launched a massive missile attack on Israel.
On October 1, the two terrorists, one of whom was armed with a rifle and the other with a knife, attacked civilians on the Tel Aviv light rail before getting off and continuing on foot and shooting and stabbing people on Jerusalem Street in the city.
Mesek was rubbed out by a municipal security officer, and Himouni was seriously maimed after being shot by armed civilians.
It was one of the deadliest single attacks in Israel in recent years.
The seven civilians murdered in the attack were Victor Shimshon Green, 33; Revital Bronstein, 24; Shahar Goldman, 30; Inbar Segev Vigder, 33; Nadia Sokolenco, 40; Ilia Nozadze, 42, a Georgian citizen; and Jonas Chrosis, 26, a Greek citizen.
As a matter of policy, Israel demolishes the homes of Paleostinians accused of carrying out deadly terror attacks.
Jerusalem defends the practice of razing the family home of attackers as a deterrent against future assaults. Over the years, a number of Israeli defense officials have questioned the efficacy of the practice, and human rights ...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... activists have denounced it as unfair collective punishment.
[IsraelTimes] Ir Amim, an Israeli rights group, says Israel demolished a record number of Palestinian homes — 181 — in East Jerusalem last year.
It says that more recently, Israel appears to have dropped a longstanding policy against demolishing homes during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which began this past weekend. It said a residential building and three apartments have been destroyed over the past week.
The Jerusalem municipality did not respond to a request for comment.
Israel captured East Jerusalem, along with the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, in the 1967 Mideast war. It annexed East Jerusalem and views it as part of the undivided capital of Israel.
Israel says the buildings were constructed illegally without planning permission.
Rights groups say discriminatory policies make it nearly impossible for Palestinians to expand or redevelop their neighborhoods in East Jerusalem, forcing many to build without permits. Israel also demolishes the family homes of Palestinians who carry out terror attacks.
[CRUXNOW] As he approaches three weeks in the hospital, Pope Francis
...Argentine liberation theologist, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio. He was elected pope in 2013. Rather than setting up shop in Avignon, where he belongs, the first Jesuit Pope chose to reside in the Domus Sanctae Marthae guesthouse instead of the papal apartments. That was to show how humble he is. He is big on climate change, against consumerism, and in favor of throwing a blanket over homosexual activity within the clergy. He's not real sure about the Resurrection, about Christ's divinity, and a few other things that would have gotten him burned at the stake a few hundred years ago, but he's hot for a certain South American Earth Mother Goddess... Wednesday had a good day, calling the Catholic parish 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 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... and stepping up respiratory and mobility exercises despite several recent bumps in the road.
In a March 5 statement, the Vatican said Pope Francis ''remained stable'' throughout the day and had no episodes of respiratory difficulty or failure.
During the day, he received high-flow oxygen through the nose as planned, and use of non-invasive ventilation will be used during the night, as has been the case for the past two days, after experiencing a respiratory spasm.
Francis, 88, spent the day in a chair and in the morning, in his private apartment on the 10th floor of Rome's Gemelli Hospital, he participated in the rite of the blessing of the ashes for Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of the Lenten season.
He then had the ashes imposed on him by the celebrant and received the Eucharist.
Also in the morning the pope called Father Gabriel Romanelli, pastor Holy Family parish in Gaza, and conducted some work activities. He spent the afternoon working. "It's your cell phone. Caller ID says it's the Pope. And your pager went off"
"Don't touch them!"
Despite another stable day for Pope Francis, given the complexity of his overall clinical status, which includes factors such as his age and underlying chronic respiratory illness, doctors are still refraining from providing an overall prognosis, which remains ''guarded.''

Of course he did. Because if I was facing imminent, one of my priorities would be to call Gaza.

Why does Lil' Papi fear death? They're deploying every artificial means to keep up the pretense of life at age 88. He's not going to rebound. What is he afraid of in the afterlife?

^Well, for one thing - he was rather nasty to the Jewish state. And guess, who is the gatekeeper of Heaven?
[IsraelTimes] Lebanese official media says two people were wounded when Israeli drones struck a vehicle in the south, a day after a deadly raid and despite an Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire.
“Israeli drones carried out more than one strike on a vehicle in Ras Naqura, near a rubbish dump” south of a United Nations peacekeeping position, the National News Agency (NNA) says.
“Two siblings who were collecting scrap metal” were wounded and taken to hospital, it adds
[Rudaw] Security situation in Jaramana, a suburb of Damascus, normalizes after security forces affiliated with the new Syrian authorities reached a settlement with local Druze button men to allow Damascus-linked forces to be deployed and take charge of the area.
Deadly festivities erupted between local button men and the security forces affiliated with the interim government in recent days. An agreement was reached following mediation from dignitaries and Syrian government authorities.
"What happened was an individual incident. People in a civilian car were attacked by unknown men. Unfortunately, one of the people in the car was a military or security officer [was killed]. It was indeed an unfortunate incident, may he rest in peace," Rabi’ Mondir, a resident of the suburb told Rudaw on Monday.
Makram Saleem is a lawyer. He said the Damascus-linked forces entered the area following an agreement with locals.
Jaramana is a mostly Druze and Christian suburb of the capital Damascus.
Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, formerly al-Nusra, before that it was called something else ...al-Qaeda's Syrian affiliate, from which sprang the Islamic State... (HTS) led the rebel coalition that toppled Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad Trampler of Homs... ’s regime in early December. Its then leader and now Syria’s interim President, Ahmad al-Sharaa, has repeatedly pledged to protect the rights of all Syrians. In December, the rebel coalition, including the HTS, agreed to merge into the Syrian defense ministry.
The international community has expressed concern that the new Islamist authorities in Damascus may impose strict Islamic rule in Syria, threatening the country’s minority groups such as Kurds, Druze, Christians, and Alawites.
On Saturday, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned the Damascus administration to “not harm the Druze,” stressing that Syrian authorities would “suffer the consequences” if they harmed the community.
