July 30 (UPI) -- An explosion killed at least 39 people and injured over 120 more at a rally for the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl political party in Pakistan on Sunday.

Akhter Hayat Gandapur, the inspector general of police for the Bajaur district, which borders Afghanistan, told CNN that the explosion was a suspected suicide bomb on the outskirts of the city of Khar.

The party said in a statement on Facebook that Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif has issued orders to send helicopters to aid the injured.

Local health officials said "special measures" have been taken at District Headquarters Hospital Timergara for the injured of Bajaur blast and the injured are being treated.

"All doctors and other staff are present. The hospital has been provided with all necessary medicines and alert to the ICU team," the health department said in a statement.

"Dr. Shaukat Ali, Director-General for Health Services Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has ordered to ensure availability of medicines and other essential commodities in all hospitals, especially DHQ hospitals of these districts," the statement reads.




Over 1,800 terrorist attacks in the first 6 months of 2023 in West Africa

The first half of 2023 saw a surge in terrorism in West Africa, the leader of a regional bloc told the U.N. Security Council, disclosing that over 1,800 attacks were recorded, leading to about 4,600 deaths.

Omar Touray, president of the 15-nation Economic Community of West African States, also known as the ECOWAS Commission, said the victims aren’t just those who lose their lives in the attacks, The Associated Press reported.

Half a million people have become refugees, fleeing their homes due to the violence, Touray said, adding that nearly 6.2 million have been internally displaced.

The region is in the midst of a humanitarian crisis, Touray told the Council, warning of potential future disaster. He noted that 30 million people in the region are in need of food aid. If the international community doesn’t respond adequately, that number could rise. By the end of next month, 42 million people might need help, he said.

Touray pointed to several factors contributing to the insecurity, of which terrorism is one. Others include armed rebellion, organized crime, unconstitutional government changes and environmental crises. Even fake news has played a role.

There’s also the issue of military rule, he added. Three countries — Mali, Burkina Faso and Guinea — are under such control, he added. This reversal of democratic gains, according to Touray, aligns with the region’s growing insecurity.

Touray provided a country-by-country breakdown of terrorism-related deaths.

Burkina Faso has suffered the most, with 2,725 deaths. Mali has lost 844 lives. Niger and Nigeria have witnessed 77 and 70 deaths, respectively.

Even coastal states haven’t been spared. Touray mentioned recent terrorist attacks in Benin and Togo. He viewed them as an indicator of the expanding reach of terrorism.

Various initiatives have been launched to tackle this insecurity. Yet, according to Touray, a lack of coordination hampers these efforts. ECOWAS wants to integrate these initiatives into a regional plan.

To this end, ECOWAS military chiefs of staff have consulted on strengthening a regional standby force. The aim is to support member states in fighting terrorism. It would also guard against threats to the constitutional order.

Touray shared two proposed options. The first is establishing a 5,000-strong brigade, which would cost $2.3 billion annually. The second option is a more flexible deployment of troops on demand, which would cost $360 million per year.

Touray voiced the African Union’s request for funding. He asked for African peace operations to be funded from the U.N. regular budget. This budget is contributed to by all 193 U.N. member states.

The U.N. Security Council also heard from Leonardo Santos Simão, the head of the U.N. office for West Africa. He echoed Touray’s concerns, emphasizing the deteriorating security situation in the central Sahel.

 U.S. Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood also addressed the council. He expressed concerns over democratic backsliding in the region. He also criticized the Russia-based Wagner Group for alleged human rights abuses.

The violence in West Africa, particularly its expansion toward the littoral states of Benin and Togo, underpins a larger concern

International Christian Concern, a U.S.-based persecution watchdog, sees this spread of terrorism as part of a global Jihad.

Responding to Touray’s disclosure, ICC expressed concerns about Islamic extremists’ aims to enforce extreme Sharia law wherever they conquer. It explained in a statement that this poses a significant threat to Christian communities in the region who are often singled out as targets.

The organization called for global prayers to strengthen unity within the church, end the tyranny of terrorists and replace the prevailing darkness with the light of peace and compassion.




Teens get 8 mo in prison for planning massacre of Christians in Austrian school






Austria: Two Muslim teens planned jihad massacre 

of the Christians in the younger one’s class


JUL 30, 2023 3:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER

“Kill them wherever you find them… (Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, cf. 9:5)

“Fight against those do not believe in Allah or the last day, and do not forbid what Allah and his messenger have forbidden, and do not follow the religion of truth, even if they are among the people of the book, until they pay the jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued.” (Qur’an 9:29)



Wanted to kill Christians in school: only two years in prison for IS supporters!


Translated from “Wollten Christen in Schule töten: Nur zwei Jahre Haft für IS-Anhänger!,” 
Exxpress, July 29, 2023


Two IS terrorists (15, 16) wanted to get hold of swords and pistols and use them to kill all the Christians in the younger one’s class. Now they have been convicted in Leoben: They only have to spend two years in prison, eight months of which are mandatory.

With the aim of making Austria a caliphate, two IS supporters (15, 16) planned an attack on a class in the new middle school in Bruck an der Mur (Styria). While the older man used the username “El Terror” to search for blueprints for bombs and silencers on the Telegram platform, the younger man tormented animals and cut off the head of a snake, among other things. However, her plan to get hold of a friend’s father’s submachine gun failed.

They showed no remorse in court. Allah had forgiven them, they would go to paradise, they said. Now they have been sentenced, as reported by the “Krone.” Due to the juvenile criminal law, however, the two only have to go to prison for 2 years, eight months of which are unconditional.

“These terrorists wanted to kill people – they wanted to kill children (!) – age or not, but the verdict is an outrage!” scolds a user on Twitter. “Imagine being the mother or father of one of the children in the affected class. I could never sleep knowing that in less than two years these people who tried to kill my child will get out of prison…,” added another user.

Western judicial systems are ripe for abuse by Islamic terrorists. There is nothing in Western laws that is appropriate for the handling of jihadists who intend to subdue Europe and elsewhere to bring them under Sharia Law. Such people put Sharia above the laws of the country they inhabit, and, as such, do not belong in those countries, and shouldn't be permitted to remain in them. Radicalized Muslims must be segregated from sane societies before it is too late.
