Israeli citizens caught smuggling explosives from Jordan for Islamic Jihad

Terrorist groups in the West Bank and abroad have intensified efforts to smuggle explosives over Israel's borders.

Two Israeli citizens from the Tulkarm area were arrested while smuggling firearms and explosives for the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist movement from Jordan in early August, the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) said on Tuesday.

The two were identified as Samer Farid Ghanam Knoh and Osama Nissim Ghazi Harouf, the latter of whom is known for his connections to terrorist operatives.

Another unnamed individual from the same area was arrested as well.

On August 3, Knoh and Harouf were caught smuggling firearms and explosives at the Jordanian border, with four handguns and four explosive devices found in their possession.

A photo of the devices showed that the explosive devices were MON-50 anti-personnel mines (similar to a Claymore mine) produced in Russia and Bulgaria. It is unclear where the weapons were being sourced from.

UN committee releases exhaustive study on the legality of Israel’s occupation

“The study is the most comprehensive and persuasive analysis of why the Israel occupation has now become illegal,” says former UN Special Rapporteur Michael Lynk. “It will be the intellectual and political touchstone on Palestine and international law for some time.”

US Court rules against Internet Archive and, in doing so, against digital collections in all libraries

The Internet Archive, like hundreds of US libraries, is a non-profit institution. Yet a court ruling in mid-August has sided with publishers’ commercial interests to disallow non-profit organisations from lending books.

But there’s a significant catch – the protections afforded to the Internet Archive and all libraries under the first sale doctrine. The Internet Archive intend to appeal the court’s decision.

The lawsuit hinges on the question of whether e-books are books, subject to the existing laws governing the sale of books, or whether the publishers can redefine e-books as temporary, rental-only media – a new class of unownable goods, like streaming-only films from Disney or subscription-only software from Microsoft. But libraries must have the option to buy and own their books – all their books, including e-books – and own them absolutely.

This threat to the ownership of books is what makes the ongoing publishers’ lawsuit against the Internet Archive politically dangerous and in an altogether different way from earlier challenges and amendments to copyright law. At a time of increasing book bannings and attacks on libraries, public schools and universities, it is not safe for democracy, or for our cultural posterity, to leave an “on/off” switch for library books in the hands of corporate publishers.

In the summer of 2020, Hachette, Penguin Random House, HarperCollins, and Wiley accused the Internet Archive of “mass-scale copyright infringement” because of the way the Internet Archive’s Open Library loans its e-books to patrons. The publishers’ objective had been to forbid the Open Library to loan any of their in-copyright books as e-books.

Last September more than a thousand writers signed an open letter in support of the Internet Archive and digital ownership rights for libraries.

The government has been preparing for this for years now and it will be “released” in October 2023.

LEAK: Jack Smith to Indict Trump Again – Special Counsel Investigates Fundraising, Breach of Voting Machines

Special Counsel Jack Smith is gearing up to indict President Trump out of DC again, according to a new report by CNN.

Jack Smith has expanded his investigation into Trump’s effort to challenge the 2020 election and is focusing on Trump’s fundraising efforts.

President Trump raised millions of dollars after the 2020 election to investigate rampant Democrat vote fraud.

Jack Smith is also investigating how the money was used to inspect the voting machines.

A non-profit run by Sidney Powell hired forensic investigators to inspect voting machines in four swing states: Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Arizona.

Fulton County DA Fani Willis indited Trump and 18 of his associates on similar charges of computer trespass for daring to look at the voting machines.

CNN reported:

Special counsel Jack Smith is still pursuing his investigation into efforts to overturn the 2020 election a month after indicting Donald Trump for orchestrating a broad conspiracy to remain in power, a widening of the probe that raises the possibility others could still face legal peril.

Questions asked of two recent witnesses indicate Smith is focusing on how money raised off baseless claims of voter fraud was used to fund attempts to breach voting equipment in several states won by Joe Biden, according to multiple sources familiar with the ongoing investigation.

In both interviews, prosecutors have focused their questions on the role of former Trump lawyer Sidney Powell.

According to invoices obtained by CNN, Powell’s non-profit, Defending the Republic, hired forensics firms that ultimately accessed voting equipment in four swing states won by Biden: Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Arizona.

Jack Smith indicted Trump on 37 federal counts in Miami in June.

Trump was charged with 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information and 6 other process crimes stemming from his conversations with his lawyer.

Walt Nauta, a Mar-a-Lago aide, was indicted along with President Trump as a co-conspirator.

Last month Jack Smith hit Trump with 3 additional charges in the investigation into classified documents stored at Mar-a-Lago.

The superseding indictment, filed in the Southern District of Florida, claims Trump was part of a scheme to delete security footage from Mar-a-Lago.

Earlier this month Trump was hit with 4 counts in Jack Smith’s January 6 case up in DC: Conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights.

White House Says Joe Biden Will Start Wearing Mask Again After Jill Biden Tests Positive for COVID-19

In a move that amplifies the narrative of a never-ending COVID-19 crisis, the White House announced on Monday that Jill Biden has tested positive for the virus while vacationing in Delaware. Despite being double-vaccinated and twice-boosted, Mrs. Biden is experiencing “only mild symptoms.” As a result, Joe Biden has reverted to wearing a mask, even though he has tested negative for the virus and mask won’t work.

“This evening, the First Lady tested positive for COVID-19. She is currently experiencing only mild symptoms. She will remain at their home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware,” according to Elizabeth Alexander, Jill Biden’s Communications Director.

In a follow-up statement, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed that Joe Biden tested negative for the virus on Monday evening and on Tuesday.

“Following the First Lady’s positive test for COVID-19, President Biden was administered a COVID test this evening. The President tested negative. The President will test at a regular cadence this week and monitor for symptoms,” said Pierre.

Karine Jean-Pierre, during a press briefing Tuesday, informed the public that President Biden will be donning a mask while indoors and around people. This decision comes in alignment with CDC guidance on COVID-19 safety measures, fueling speculation on whether this is a precursor to renewed nationwide mandates and restrictions.

“President Biden tested negative last night for COVID-19 and tested negative again today. He is not experiencing any symptoms as far as the steps he is taking,” said Karine Jean-Pierre.

“Since the President was with the First Lady yesterday, he will be masking while indoors and around people in alignment with CDC guidance, and as has been the practice in the past, the President will remove his mask when sufficiently distanced from others indoors and while outside as well.”

House Oversight Chairman James Comer Subpoenas Secret Service, DHS Chief Mayorkas Over Tip-Off of Hunter Biden Interview

House Oversight Chairman James Comer on Tuesday issued 6 subpoenas related to the rigged Hunter Biden investigation.

“Comer sent a total of six subpoenas Tuesday— one directed to Secretary Mayorkas for documents; and five for depositions—two to Secret Service officials and three to DHS officials.” Fox News reported.

4 Subpoenas to DHS that require the production of documents and communications about our request and three depositions with DHS employees.

2 Subpoenas to the Secret Service requiring two Secret Service employees to appear for depositions.

“The Department of Justice initiated the Biden family coverup, and now DHS, under the leadership of Secretary Mayorkas, is complicit in it.” the Oversight Committee said on Tuesday.

“IRS whistleblowers provided testimony regarding misconduct during the Hunter Biden criminal investigation, including FBI Headquarters tipping off Secret Service Headquarters and the Biden transition team about the planned Hunter Biden interview. Following these actions, the interview of Hunter Biden did not occur.” they said.

“These allegations were backed up by the former FBI supervisory special agent who was assigned to interview Hunter Biden.” House Republicans said. “After months of obstruction by DHS and the Secret Service, James Comer is issuing six subpoenas.”

Sidney Powell Alleges Falsehoods In Georgia Trump Indictment

Lawyer and former prosecutor Sidney Powell alleged false claims in the indictment against former President Donald Trump in Georgia.

Ms. Powell, who’s a co-defendant in the case, contradicted several claims in the indictment in an Aug. 30 court filing, asking for her case to be tried separately from the other 18 defendants, including President Trump.

Most of the charges don’t involve her and those that do “fatally depend on demonstrably false premises,” the filing said.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis alleged in the Aug. 14 indictment that Ms. Powell participated in a racketeering conspiracy by tampering with election machines and computers and stealing data from them.

She “entered into a contract” with data forensic company SullivanStrickler and “caused” its employees to copy data from election equipment in Coffee County, Georgia, after the 2020 election, the indictment said.

In fact, Ms. Powell asserted, that though her name was printed on the SullivanStrickler contract, she never signed it.

“There was no contract for SullivanStrickler to conduct forensic imaging of the Coffee County Voting Systems,” her filing said.

“Ms. Powell signed no such contract. … Ms. Powell did not plan or organize the Coffee County trip. … Ms. Powell did not request SullivanStrickler to undertake that project,” it said.

As for the breach of the equipment, the firm claimed in a separate lawsuit that its employees believed they were authorized to copy the data. They said at least one Coffee County election official was present during their work.

“A unanimous Coffee County Election Board gave permission for the forensic inspection, and nothing was stolen,” the Powell filing said.
