Sweden jihadist jailed for life over Jordan pilot burned alive

Stockholm (AFP) – A Stockholm court on Thursday handed down a life term to Swedish jihadist Osama Krayem over the 2015 murder of a Jordanian pilot burned alive by the Islamic State group in Syria.

The Swedish court was the first to try a person over the killing that sparked outrage around the world.

Judge Anna Liljenberg Gullesjo said "the investigation has shown that the defendant was at the execution site, uniformed and armed, and allowed himself to be filmed."

Although video evidence showed that another man lit the fire, the judge said the "defendant's actions contributed so significantly to the death of the victim that he should be considered a perpetrator".

Krayem, who is serving long prison sentences for his role in the Paris and Brussels attacks in 2015 and 2016, was given a life sentence for "serious war crimes and terrorist crimes"

On December 24, 2014, an aircraft belonging to the Royal Jordanian Air Force crashed in Syria.

The pilot, Maaz al-Kassasbeh, was captured the same day by IS fighters near the central city of Raqqa and was burned alive in a cage sometime before February 3, 2015, when a slickly-produced video of the gruesome killing was published, according to the prosecution.

Gullesjo said Krayem's actions consisted of "guarding the victim both before and during the execution and taking him to the cage where he was set alight while still alive".

The court also awarded compensation to the parents and siblings of the Jordanian pilot, amounting to 80,000 Swedish kronor ($8,200) each.

'Comfort' for family

Prosecutors have been unable to determine the exact date of the murder, but the investigation has identified the location.

The 32-year-old jihadist remained silent throughout the hearings, which lasted between June 4 and June 26, though segments from interrogations with Krayem conducted during the investigation were read out and played during the trial.

The fact that the defendent did not speak did not "significantly impact the ruling, as the prosecution presented solid evidence, and the investigation was thorough," Gullesjo told AFP.

According to his lawyer, Krayem insisted he had spent only 15 to 20 minutes on-site, unaware of what was going to happen until he saw the cameras.

"This verdict somewhat comforts the family," the pilot's brother Jawdat al-Kassasbeh, who was a civil party to the case, told AFP.

"We thank Sweden and the impartial Swedish judiciary for their efforts in pursuing this case," the brother added.

He travelled from Jordan for the trial to testify to the pain, still raw, that he shares with his loved ones.

No remorse

The family's lawyer lamented in court that Krayem showed no empathy or remorse for his actions.

"Most people who witnessed what Maaz went through would undoubtedly need lifelong, or at least long-term, treatment to overcome the trauma that this causes in a normal individual," Mikael Westerlund told the court.

"Krayem, on the other hand, does not seem to have been traumatised, but inspired. Inspired to continue his terrorist activities, which led him to participate in and then be convicted of terrorist acts in Europe," Westerlund added.

Krayem, who is from Malmo in southern Sweden, was sentenced to 30 years in prison in France for helping plan the November 2015 Paris attacks and to life imprisonment in Belgium for the 2016 attacks at Brussels' main airport and metro station.

On March 12, France agreed to hand him over to Sweden for nine months, the time needed for the investigation and trial.

He must be returned to France by December 27 at the latest, the Stockholm court said Thursday.

"Jordanians will always remember this horrible crime," Jordanian government spokesman Mohammed Momani told AFP.

"This decision is a significant step towards achieving justice."

Islamic Hysteria > Kills a Christian, injures 10 cops, burns several Christian's buildings in Punjab

 

Pakistan: Christian attacked by Muslim mob

over claims of Qur’an desecration dies

JUN 4, 2024 9:00 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER

As we have seen in so many other cases, the mere allegation was enough to incite the mob to violence. Due process? A fair trial? Come on, man! Don’t be “Islamophobic.”

Pakistan: Christian man attacked by mob in Punjab province

over allegations of Quran desecration dies

India TV, June 3, 2024:

Lahore: An elderly Christian man, who was viciously attacked by a mob over blasphemy allegations in Pakistan’s Punjab province that left him critically injured, has succumbed to his injuries, according to police on Monday. The incident shows once again the ugly side of Pakistan’s anti-blasphemy laws, where radical Islamists often take the law in their own hands and lynch people accused of blasphemic acts.

An enraged mob led by radical Islamist Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) activists on May 25 attacked some Christian community members in Mujahid Colony in the Sargodha district of Punjab, some 200 km from Lahore, injuring two Christians and 10 policemen. The mob also ransacked the property belonging to the Christians.

A heavy contingent of police had to deployed in the area to bring the situation under control as the mob had surrounded some houses (of Christians) over the allegations of the desecration of the Quran. Another police officer told PTI that on Saturday morning some youth in Mujahid Colony alleged that an elderly Christian man Nazir Gill Masih, alias Lazar Masih, desecrated the Quran.

Factory set ablaze by angry mob

“Following their allegations, a mob led by the TLP activists marched towards the residence and a factory of Nazir. They set ablaze his shoe factory and his house. They also ransacked a few shops owned by Christians. Before police could reach the spot, the mob lynched and thrashed Nazir,” he said. Nazir was hospitalised in a critical condition and the other Christian man also suffered injuries.

Police said the mob also torched Nazir, but the man was saved by the timely arrival of a heavy contingent of police rescued Masih, which rescued other members of the Christian community. The FIR says that some pages of the holy Quran were reportedly found outside the shoe factory, instigating the locals.

Masih, who was receiving treatment at the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) in Sargodha died on Sunday, police said. His nephew, Irfan Gill Masih, also confirmed the death. Gill said his uncle had returned from Dubai after four years, and was falsely accused of Quran desecration. He said the Christian families saved their lives by locking themselves inside their houses when the mob marched towards them….

The Blasphemy laws and their misuse reveals devout Islam's hatred for Christians, which reveals the source of their religion. Islamic hysteria is another indication of the spiritual power that drives them. 

The Mujahid Colony must have resembled Germany in Kristallnacht. It's not surprising since Islam is the new NAZI.

The remains of a 12-year-old Israeli girl, burned alive alongside her twin brother and great-aunt in the Oct. 7 Hamas onslaught on southwestern Israel, have been identified by archaeologists sifting through the rubble, family members said on Sunday.

Liel Hetzroni was murdered, together with her twin brother Yanai and their 73-year-old great-aunt Ayala, in the attack on Kibbutz Be’eri after they were taken hostage by Palestinian terrorists, who were then engaged in a firefight with Israeli security forces.

The twins had been raised by their grandfather’s sister after their single-parent mother suffered brain damage immediately following their C-section birth due to a tragic hospital mistake.

Their grandfather Aviya was also killed in the attack on the kibbutz.

Family members held a symbolic, funeral at a temporary resting place at Kibbutz Revivim last Wednesday, burying Liel’s belongings since her remains had not yet been identified.

The family said Sunday that they will inter her remains at her home kibbutz — which is currently a closed military zone — when the survivors of the terrorist rampage are allowed to return.

About 10% of the 1,000 members of Be’eri, facing the Gaza Strip, were murdered during the assault.

A team of about 15 archaeologists, assisted by Israeli soldiers, were called in because even after search and rescue teams scoured several communities, scores of people remained unaccounted for. Some had been burnt to ash. The archaeologists have managed to find the remains of dozens of people

At least 1,200 people were killed in Hamas’s attacks on Israeli communities near the Gaza border on Oct. 7. Another 240 men, women, children and soldiers were taken back to Gaza as hostages. Some people remain unaccounted for as Israeli authorities continue to identify bodies and search for human remains.

IDF confirms captured female soldier was murdered

Although Noa Marciano was injured during the bombardment, her wounds were not fatal, and a pathology report proves she was killed by her captors. 

By World Israel News Staff

IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari announced on Sunday that the captured soldier, Corporal Noa Marciano wasn’t killed in an airstrike, as Hamas alleged, but was murdered by a Hamas terrorists inside Shifa hospital.

According to a thorough pathology report and intelligence information, Noa did sustain a non-fatal injury during the IDF bombardment but was moved from her original spot, taken to the hospital, and killed by terrorists.

Hagari reported, “Noa was kidnapped and kept in an apartment next to Shifa Hospital. During the IDF strikes in Gaza, a Hamas terrorist who was guarding her, was killed.”

Following this, Marciano was brought into Shifa Hospital, and according to forensic evidence, was murdered by her Hamas captors.

Last week, before her body was discovered,  Hamas released a video from October 11th showing Noa Marciano speaking to the camera and stating the name of her parents and birthplace. She also can be heard on the video saying that the “bombing isn’t helping.”

  VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS' STEPDAUGHTER IS FUNDRAISING FOR GAZA

The IDF condemned the video as “psychological terrorism” and it wasn’t publicized in news outlets. After Marciano spoke, the video then cut to more recent footage of what appeared to be her lifeless body.

On the next day, the IDF confirmed that Marciano was killed.

Noa Marciano had been assigned to the IDF’s Nachal Oz base and served in the Combat Intelligence Corps 414 unit, which was entrusted with lookout duty close to the border with Gaza.

When terrorists invaded Nachal Oz on October 7th, Noa Marciano, along with some 240 other Israelis, was taken captive by Hamas.

Hamas attempted to blame the death of Marciano on the IDF bombardment and has said they will free hostages if the bombardment stops.

Netanyahu has remained firm on the resolution that he will agree to a ceasefire only if all hostages are returned safely.

In flip-flop, Israel allows fuel into Gaza

After international pressure, the Israeli government backtracked on its no-fuel into-Gaza promise and is letting in 2 tankers a day amid fear of disease spreading.

By JNS

The Israeli government in an about-face has acquiesced to a U.S. demand that fuel be supplied to the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.

“The War Cabinet agreed to a special request by the United States to provide two tankers a day for the sewage system in the Gaza Strip, which is on the verge of collapse without electricity and without the capability to run the sewage and water systems,” Israeli National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi said at a Friday night press conference.

“The decision was that we want to prevent the spread of diseases. We don’t currently need epidemics that will harm civilians there or our soldiers. If there is an epidemic, the fighting will be stopped. If there is a humanitarian crisis and an international outcry, we will not be able to continue the fighting under those conditions,” he added.

Hanegbi said that Israel’s security establishment “unequivocally” agreed that the move would not harm the war effort.

On Wednesday, a fuel truck entered Gaza through the Rafah border crossing from Egypt, in the first such delivery since Hamas launched the war on Oct. 7 with its cross-border massacre of 1,200 Israelis.

The Israel Defense Ministry’s Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) unit, which deals with Palestinian civilian affairs, confirmed in a tweet:

“U.N. trucks transporting humanitarian equipment from the Rafah crossing into the southern Gaza Strip will be refueled today [Wednesday] at the crossing. This follows a request from the United States administration and is being done in coordination with the relevant security authorities.”

A COGAT spokesperson clarified to JNS that “we would like to emphasize that this refers to U.N. trucks only, not to the refueling of tankers or fuel depots.”

The Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem confirmed to JNS that U.N. trucks were scheduled to be refueled on Wednesday. “We’re talking about humanitarian aid trucks that were refueled at the Rafah border crossing,” said PMO spokesman Eylon Levy.

The United Nations claimed on Monday, as it has several times before, that without fuel for its trucks, its aid operations would “grind to a halt in the next 48 hours.”

On Oct. 18, Israel’s government said, “Israel will not thwart humanitarian supplies from Egypt as long as it is only food, water and medicine for the civilian population” [emphasis added].

But aid agencies and the United States have been pushing Israel to let fuel in.

  HAMAS DEBATING THE RELEASE OF 50 HOSTAGES WITH DUAL CITIZENSHIP

On Oct. 30, the State Department said, “Fuel is essential to the delivery of humanitarian assistance, the desalinization of water and the provision of medical care, and we want to see it provided for those purposes as soon as possible.”

Israel has expressed concerns that fuel would be confiscated by Hamas for its war effort, noting a report by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) on Oct. 16 that “a group of people with trucks purporting to be from the Ministry of Health of the de facto authorities [i.e., Hamas] in Gaza removed fuel and medical equipment from the agency’s compound in Gaza City.”

The Israeli military also released an intercepted call between Hamas commanders in the Gaza Strip in which the terrorist group talked about transferring fuel from hospitals to its terrorist operatives.

The PMO’s Levy said: “We will of course continue to take all necessary action to ensure that Hamas not exploit the international community’s goodwill in order to rearm and refuel its war machine against us.”

Death toll at Israeli music festival soars to 350

As grisly task of identifying bodies continues, Israeli authorities say dozens were found slaughtered in their cars and then set on fire outside Supernova music festival.

By World Israel News Staff

The death toll at an Israeli music festival hard-hit by the Hamas invasion of October 7th rose sharply over the weekend, after additional remains found near the scene of the festival were linked to the massacre.

According to Israel’s National Insurance Institute, at least 350 party-goers at the Supernova music festival outside Re’im were slaughtered on the morning of October 7th.

That marks an increase of 90, from the previous figure released by the NII of 260.

Authorities said the number of dead at the Supernova festival could rise again, as forensics teams make progress is separating and identifying the remains of victims whose bodies were mutilated and torched by the terrorists during the Gaza invasion last month.

The surge in the death toll at the music festival comes after dozens of bodies found shot and torched inside their cars were linked to party-goers listed as missing on October 7th.

It is believed the victims had fled the music festival, only to be slaughtered by terrorists operating on Israeli roads. The victims cars and remains were then set on fire.

Forty revelers from the Supernova festival were also taken captive to Gaza, authorities say.

A total of 870 of the over 1,200 Israelis who are believed to have been murdered on October 7th have been positively identified thus far.

Search and rescue workers are continuing their efforts to locate additional bodies in the Gaza frontier area, as forensics teams – including archaeologists volunteering to help identify the remains – work to sift through the fragmentary remains of victims burned on October 7th.

Jan. 14 (UPI) -- Three police officers are dead after a late night attack by Taliban militants on a police station on the outskirts of Peshawar, Pakistan, authorities said Saturday.

Police called the attack an ambush, carried out by the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan group around midnight Saturday.

The TPP group later claimed responsibility for the attack, which left a senior police officer among the dead.

Officials say six or seven gunmen attacked the police station in Peshawar, the provincial capital of northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, which shares a border with Afghanistan and has recently been under fire from the outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban.

"A group of terrorists attacked Sarband police station at midnight from different sides," Kashif Aftab Abbasi, a senior police officer told the Anadolu news agency

The attackers used grenades, sniper rifles, automatic weapons and grenades in the assault, which he said was "coordinated from multiple directions," he said.

Following the attack, the Taliban group claimed it had killed four police officers and seized weapons and ammunition.

Attacks launched from Afghanistan have picked up since the Taliban returned to power in that country in August 2021.

The TPP was formed in 2007 and has operated along the Afghan-Pakistani border since then. It shares a common ideology with the Afghan Taliban and assisted them between 2001 and 2021 during U.S. military occupation.

Jan. 15 (UPI) -- An alleged terrorist bombing of a Pentecostal church in the Democratic Republic of Congo killed 10 people and injured at least 39 more on Sunday.

The government of Congo accused Islamic State terrorist group the Allied Democratic Forces of the attack.

"The Government strongly condemns the bomb attack visibly perpetrated by ADF terrorists, this Sunday 15/01/2023, against citizens in full worship in the parish of the 8th Community of Pentecostal Churches of Congo in the city of Kasindi in North Kivu," Congo's Ministry of Transportation and Communication said in a statement.

The church is located in Kisindi, a town in Congo's North Kivu province about 5 miles away from Beni, which is known to have heavy ADF activity.

The bomb used in the attack was an improvised explosive device.

Military spokesperson Antony Mualushayi said the scene is under control and an investigation is underway.

"Very saddened by this heinous crime, the Head of State presents his deepest condolences to the bereaved families, reassuring that the culprits will be prosecuted, arrested, tried and severely punished," said President Felix Tshisekedi

The United Nations Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo condemned the attack but did not name a perpetrator.

"MONUSCO condemns the cowardly and despicable attack against a church in Kasindi (North Kivu) causing the death of several people and many injuries. It presents its condolences to the families of the victims, to the Congolese people and to the government of the Republic ," MONUSCO tweeted.

The U.S. Congress describes ADF as an "armed group primarily active in the Democratic Republic of Congo." In its September report on the organization it said the group has pledged allegiance to ISIS and poses a threat to long-running efforts by the United States to help stabilize the DRC.
