After ARD agitation: Armenian Christian in Berlin attacked by Islamists with a knife
Who knows this attacker?
The Syrian-Armenian Bundestag employee Kevork Almassian was attacked yesterday by two Islamists in Berlin with a knife and was barely able to escape with his life.
Kevork Almassian is an Armenian Christian and a recognized refugee in Germany. Since 2018 he has worked for AfD MP Markus Frohnmaier in the Bundestag. Since he was doxed last year by editor-in-chief Lars Wienand from T-Online, the ARD magazine "Kontraste" and the Syrian Islamist activist Nahla Osman from Rüsselsheim, he has received death threats ( jouwatch reported ).
Yesterday two Islamists struck and attacked Almassian with a knife on the street. The Islamists were obviously after his life. Almassian evaded them and managed to escape by running for about 10 minutes and calling for help. Nobody on the street in Berlin reacted.
The human hunters Lars Wienand and Silvio Duwe and Georg Heil from “Contrasts” never apologized to Almassian. After the fee-financed defamation reports, Almassian is repeatedly threatened massively by Islamists. Frohnmaier asks for clues to the perpetrator .
Almassian wrote on Twitter : “I just survived a murder attack (in Berlin). (...) This is not the first time that someone in Germany is trying to attack me and the main reason for this is a report from ARD-Contrasts from February 2019 which contains many lies and fabrications ... If anything should happen to me, I do the ARD-Contrasts magazine and his hate campaign against me last year was responsible for provoking radical Islamists and forcing them to take "revenge". "
UK police arrest four terrorism suspects
in London and Leicester
The police said that four men were arrested for “preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism” as part of a proactive investigation. Three suspects were detained at two separate addresses in East London, with one more apprehended in Leicestershire.
Video on social media showed armed officers from the Counter Terrorism Command breaking into a home in Goodmayes and escorting two men outside. “No shots were fired” during the operation, according to the law enforcers, but one man was bitten on the foot by a police dog and taken to hospital.
Witnesses told local media that loud bangs, which resembled gunshots, were heard. The loud noises weren’t gunshots, but “part of distraction tactics used by officers,” a police spokesman clarified later.
The suspects were aged between 17 and 32, the police said, adding that the officers have been conducting searches at four locations in East London.
The neighbors at one of the addresses where the arrests were made told the UK media that they were “a little bit shaken” by what had happened.
They also said they didn’t know the inhabitants of the home, which the police raided, too well because “they don't speak very good English.” The locals added that it was a “mystery” for them, who actually lived in the house, due to people always coming and going.
One of India’s cruelest gangsters, already facing 60 charges, arrested after his gang killed 8 cops in violent shootout

Dubey was apprehended after visiting a temple in Madhya Pradesh on Thursday. A shopkeeper happened to recognize the most-wanted man – who was peacefully buying prayer offerings – and reportedly called security guards who asked for his ID.
As the confrontation escalated, Dubey hit out at the guards who dragged him towards a police van. Footage from the scene shows the gangster being beaten and forced into the vehicle.
Dubey’s name returned to Indian news reports – and police wires – earlier last week, when a squad of officers descended on his place in Kanpur, a metropolis in his home state, Uttar Pradesh. Dubey set up a massive ambush involving as many as 60 of his men – armed with assault rifles, and pistols.
The gangsters opened fire from rooftops, outnumbering and outgunning the police as around 30 officers arrived. Dubey himself managed to escape, while eight officers were killed.
A massive manhunt was unleashed shortly afterwards, and the bounty on the notorious gangster was raised to Rs 5 lakh (around $7,000).
Dubey’s gangster career started back in 1990, when the first criminal case against him was registered. By 2020, he faced 60 criminal charges, including counts of murder, extortion, kidnapping, and rioting.
“It is a big success for the police, Vikas Dubey is a cruel killer,” Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra said, adding the police have informed their colleagues in Uttar Pradesh that the manhunt was a success.

Border Patrol agents stationed at the Del Rio Sector of Texas detained a family of three Iranian nationals illegally crossing the border on Sunday, according to a press release. The group is considered to be “Special Interest Aliens” by the Department of Homeland Security because of their home country’s terrorism prevalence.
“Agents in Del Rio Sector encounter individuals from countries all throughout the world,” said Del Rio Sector Acting Chief Patrol Agent Doyle E. Amidon, Jr.
He added, “The vigilance, diligence, and dedication to duty that our agents display on a daily basis is second to none. The security of our neighborhoods, communities, and our great nation is our top priority.”
The area has seen a flow of people crossing from all over the world. This year, alone, individuals from 63 different countries were arrested at the Del Rio Sector.
A top US terrorism fighter’s dire warning
Russell Travers detailed his concerns to the intelligence community’s watchdog.
Days later he was fired.
By BETSY WOODRUFF SWAN, PoliticoAmerica’s intelligence agencies risk slipping back into dangerous pre-9/11 habits, a recently departed top counterterrorism official is warning in his first public remarks on the matter.
Russell Travers, former head of the U.S. government’s hub for analysis of counterterrorism intelligence, was so alarmed that he shared his concerns with the intelligence community’s top internal watchdog in his final weeks on the job.“I think there are really important questions that need to be addressed, and I don’t think they have been thus far,” said Travers, who ran the National Counterterrorism Center until March of this year. “And that has me worried, because I do think we could very easily end up back where we were 20 years ago.”
Travers detailed his concerns, much of which remain highly classified, to the intelligence community’s inspector general. About a week later, he was summarily ousted, he says — and the Trump administration official who fired him didn’t explain why.

Feds file terrorism charges against MS-13 leader
By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Wednesday, July 15, 2020
Federal prosecutors announced groundbreaking terrorism charges against a leader of MS-13 on Wednesday, saying the man, who was an illegal immigrant in the U.S. before being deported twice back to El Salvador, ran the violent gang’s Eastern U.S. operations.
He becomes the first MS-13 leader to face terrorism charges here.
“We’re using ‘terrorism,’ which gives us extra strength,” President Trump said at the White House as he touted the new actions, which also included takedowns of dozens of other members of La Mara Salvatrucha, better known as MS-13, ranging from Las Vegas to New York.
One of those New York targets, Alexi Saenz, could face the death penalty, Attorney General William P. Barr said.
The gang has been a particular focus for Mr. Trump, who in 2017 ordered the Justice Department and Homeland Security to go to war on the organization.
Mr. Barr said MS-13 is unique among criminal organizations, calling it a “death cult” because of its savagery, but also pointing to its sophistication and reach, with a hierarchy and tentacles spanning multiple countries.

Two more charged with terrorism in Oklahoma City

Two more protesters Friday were charged with terrorism after a further investigation into the damage to an Oklahoma City bail bonds business May 30.
Haley Lin Crawford and Sydney Lynch are accused in the felony charge of acting with a large crowd of others to unlawfully break the windows of CJ's Bail Bonds.
They are the youngest so far to be charged in Oklahoma County District Court over protests May 30 and 31.
Crawford's 18th birthday is Saturday, records show. Lynch turned 18 two weeks ago. Both are from Oklahoma City. Investigators said they were identified from a recording made on Facebook by another protester and from tips to CrimeStoppers.
Three other protesters were charged earlier with terrorism. So far, six protesters have been charged with rioting and one has been charged with assault and battery upon a police officer. More rioting charges are expected next week.
Also, five protesters were charged with incitement to riot over a confrontation with police in June during the painting of a street mural.
District Attorney David Prater has been both praised and condemned for his get-tough stance on what charges to file over the protests.
The harshest criticism has been directed at the terrorism charges filed over the burning of an Oklahoma County sheriff's van and the damage to and attempted burning of the bail bonds business.
The ACLU of Oklahoma called the terrorism charges "nothing short of an abuse of power." Black Lives Matter Oklahoma City held a protest July 2 to denounce the filing of the terrorism cases.
Prater has stood by his decision. "This is not Seattle," he said June 26. "We're not putting up with this lawlessness here."
On June 28, he said, "These criminals have subverted peaceful protests and impaired the open discussion regarding race in our country. ... When you act like a terrorist, you will be treated like a terrorist. All innocent citizens of Oklahoma County deserve to be protected."
