But no discussion of stamping out this threat would be complete without mentioning the government that gives terrorists all three—safe harbor, financial backing, and the social standing needed for recruitment. It is a regime that is responsible for so much instability in the region. I am speaking of course of Iran.

(1.12.2014) 5. In view of the heavy fighting, which was approaching close to the UNDOF headquarters at Camp Faouar and the mission’s positions in the central part of the area of separation, the Force Commander briefed both parties early in September on the Force’s plans to relocate its personnel and assets should the Nusra Front or other extremist fighters who posed a clear threat to the mission endanger the safety and security of the United Nations personnel. It should be noted here that from information posted on social media as well as in the course of its efforts to secure the release of the peacekeepers, the United Nations learned that its personnel had been taken and held by members of the Nusra Front. There were indications that the Nusra Front intended to detain additional UNDOF personnel and take from UNDOF more weapons and vehicles as opportunities arose. (…)

12. Crossing of the ceasefire line by civilians, primarily shepherds, was observed on an almost daily basis. On 24 October, United Nations observation post 73 observed 12 IDF soldiers who detained one civilian between the Alpha line and the Israeli technical fence south-east of the observation post and subsequently took him away. IDF informed UNDOF that they released the person within one hour at the same location. On 27 October, position 80 observed two IDF soldiers east of the technical fence returning from the direction of the Alpha line towards the technical fence. UNDOF observed IDF opening the technical fence gate and letting two individuals pass from the Bravo to the Alpha side. Following the evacuation of UNDOF personnel from position 85 on 28 August, UNDOF sporadically observed armed members of the opposition interacting with IDF across the ceasefire line in the vicinity of United Nations position 85.

(4.12.2014) UN troops monitoring the 1974 ceasefire between Israel and Syria have witnessed interactions between members of the Israeli Defence Forces and the Al Nusra Front who have taken over a large part of the Golan Heights.

(6.8.2016) But this battle also comes at a price — a key Al-Qaeda-linked group has helped spearhead the attack on the city. Operating under the umbrella organization Jaish al-Fatah, Army of Conquest, the newly rebranded Al-Nusra Front, now Jabhat Fatah al-Sham, used suicide sappers and tunnel bombs to break open the Syrian Army‘s battle lines and main defenses, through which various rebel groups are now streaming. As David Patrikarakos explained for RFE/RL on August 4, while many more moderate rebel groups also played very important roles, Al-Qaeda‘s leading role may impact the entire trajectory of the war moving forward.

(26.9.2016) Das Interview haben wir vor zehn Tagen geführt mit einem Kommandeur der Al Kaida-Filiale „Jabhat Al Nusra“. Abu Al Ezz berichtet sehr offen über seine Geldgeber Saudi-Arabien, Katar und Kuwait. Wir haben die Identität des Mannes genau recherchieren können und wissen praktisch alles über ihn.

Das Interview wurde über einen Rebellen aus Aleppo arrangiert. Ich habe seit Jahren Kontakte zu syrischen Rebellen. Es fand außerdem in einem Steinbruch in Aleppo in unmittelbarer Sicht-und Schussweite von Jabhat al Nusra statt, den nur ein Mitglied von Al Nusra gefahrlos erreichen konnte.

“From Lebanon to Iraq and Yemen, Iran funds, arms and trains terrorists, militias and other extremist groups that spread destruction and chaos across the region,” Trump said.

„For decades Iran has fueled the fires of sectarian conflict and terror; it’s a government that speaks openly of mass murder, vowing the destruction of Israel, death to America, and ruin for many leaders and nations in this very room.“

His remarks on Sunday were preceded by King Salman, who told dozens of Muslim leaders that the regime in Tehran “represents the tip of the spear of global terrorism.” Trump followed up with equally harsh language, saying that “all nations of conscience must work together to isolate” Iran. He also offered no criticism of the Saudi-led war in Yemen, which has seen high civilian casualties and precipitated a food shortage that has left millions of people in danger of starving to death.

„We have a proposal that we‘re working on with the Russians right now,“ Dunford said at a news conference with Defense Secretary Jim Mattis. „I won‘t share the details, but my sense is that the Russians are as enthusiastic as we are to de-conflict operations and ensure that we continue to take the campaign to ISIS and ensure the safety of our personnel.“

„This is not a battle between different faiths, different sects or different civilizations, this is battle between barbaric criminals who seek to obliterate human life and decent people all in the name of religion, people that want to protect life and want to protect their religion,“ he continued.

Jewish prayer at the Western Wall plaza is gender-segregated and restricted to Orthodox practices.

Trump is expected to visit the Western Wall during his trip to the city on Monday. His daughter Ivanka and husband Jared are Orthodox Jews.

The two-day visit there will include private meetings with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, a wreath-laying at the Holocaust memorial Yad Vashem and a visit to the Western Wall in Jerusalem.

US-Präsident Donald Trump beginnt heute seinen ersten Besuch in Israel und den Palästinensergebieten.

„We’ll pool the efforts with South Korea, the United States, Russia and China and the entire international community to give a resolute response,“ Abe stressed

The paper said Trump asked the Chinese leader to strengthen sanctions on Pyongyang, or Chinese firms that do business with the regime will be included on Washington‘s sanctions list.
To that, President Xi reportedly asked for a 100 day plan, where China will push hard on North Korea for a solution to its nuclear threats.
However, the paper added that with North Korea‘s missile provocations over the past few weeks, it‘s unclear whether the plan is still in place.

Mit dem jüngsten Test einer Mittelstreckenrakete hat Nordkorea nach eigenen Angaben die Steuerung eines Atomsprengkopfes überprüft. Die Rakete sei sehr genau, so die staatliche Nachrichtenagentur KCNA. Staatschef Kim Jong Un habe sie für den Einsatz freigegeben. Der Test erfolgte am Sonntag.

Laut dem Außenministerium wird der Abgeordnete während seines Aufenthalts in Moskau dem russischen Präsidenten Wladimir Putin ein Schreiben von Präsident Moon überreichen.

Wie verlautete, werde Song Putin die Bereitschaft der neuen Regierung zu bilateralen Projekten zur wirtschaftlichen Kooperation übermitteln. Er werde Russland um aktive Bemühungen um die Lösung der nordkoreanischen Nuklearproblematik bitten.

Franz Klintsewitsch, der erste stellvertretende Vorsitzende des Verteidigungsausschusses des Föderationsrates, sagte jedoch, dass ein weiterer Raketenstart sicherlich ein Besorgnis erregender Faktor sei, egal, wie Pjöngjang dies darstelle.

Angesichts der komplizierten politischen Situation in den USA, in der sich Präsident Trump in einer politischen Krise befinde, könnte ein unerwartetes Ereignis geschehen. Es sei bedauerlich, dass Nordkorea dies nicht verstehe.

Die südkoreanische Regierung hat am Sonntag in einer Erklärung Nordkoreas Start einer ballistischen Rakete zuvor am Tag verurteilt.

Der Sprecher des Außenministeriums Cho June-hyuck nannte den Start einen rücksichtslosen und unverantwortlichen Akt, der kaltes Wasser über die Hoffnungen der Regierung und der internationalen Gemeinschaft für eine Denuklearisierung gieße.

Despite the U.S. being the largest arms dealer in the world, sponsoring and bankrolling terrorism in nearly every part of the world including Saudi Arabia, the leaders of the two nations also announced the formation of the newly created Terrorist Financing Targeting Center, TFTC. The U.S. Treasury described the initiative as a „collaborative approach to confronting new and evolving threats arising from terrorist financing.“
