  • Young Man Freed Eight Years After Plea; Prosecutor to Talk
    15 International FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 2016 Ghana chef works against waste to feed the hungry ACCRA: Excess and waste are usually considered sympto- matic of the affluent West but trained chef Elijah Amoo Addo knows these are problems too in his home country, Ghana. One day he saw a homeless man collecting food scraps to feed others in the capital, Accra. Watching someone pick up food no-one else would eat for people no-one was helping, got him thinking. Amoo Addo believed there was enough food in the west African nation to feed all of its nearly 27 million people, but more had to be done to educate and inspire people to help those in need. The result was a charity, now called Food For All Ghana. The process is simple and not unlike recent French legislation that forces supermarkets to donate unsold food to charities and food banks, which campaigners want to see spread across Europe. Food manufacturers and suppliers are asked for unused and excess food or products approaching their best-before dates. Every weekend volunteers visit orphanages, hospitals, schools and communities using donated goods to cook for those in need and hand over ingredients for future use. “We have kids who are out of school just because they can’t get food to eat,” Amoo Adoo, 25 said. “We have families who sometimes in the day can’t even afford a plate of food. —AFP Over 130 IS fighters killed in battle for Syria’s Manbij BEIRUT: More than 130 Islamic State group fighters have been killed in a US-backed offensive on the key jihadist-held city of Manbij in northern Syria, a monitoring group said yes- terday.

  • The Latest Aleppo Battle May Give the Islamic State Another Reprieve | the Washington Institute
    MENU Policy Analysis / PolicyWatch 2611 The Latest Aleppo Battle May Give the Islamic State Another Reprieve by Fabrice Balanche Apr 26, 2016 Also available in Arabic ABOUT THE AUTHORS Fabrice Balanche Fabrice Balanche, an associate professor and research director at the University of Lyon 2, is an adjunct fellow at The Washington Institute. Brief Analysis Aside from President Obama, none of the main players in Syria has an interest in rushing toward Raqqa, so they will likely focus on exploiting the various campaigns around Aleppo instead. espite the ongoing peace negotiations in Geneva, each camp in the Syria war is preparing for a general D resumption of hostilities in the Aleppo area. In addition to the strategically important city itself, the Islamic State-occupied territory between Aleppo and the Euphrates is increasingly becoming a focal point, shifting attention away from the group's stronghold to the east and likely further delaying the Obama administration's goal of pushing IS out of its "capital" in Raqqa. CONTINUED ENCIRCLEMENT O n February 27, a ceasefire temporarily halted the Russian- and Iranian-backed Syrian army campaign to encircle the rebel-held portions of Aleppo city. By that point, the army had already cut the road to the border town of Azaz with the cooperation of the Kurdish Democratic Union Party, or PYD (see PolicyWatch 2554, "The Battle of Aleppo Is the Center of the Syrian Chessboard"). That resulted in a hostile reaction from Turkey, which fired on the Kurdish militia to prevent it from taking Azaz city and the nearby Bab al-Salam crossing point.

  • What Terrorist Migration Over European Borders Can Teach About American Border Security by Todd Bensman
    CIS Letterhead_Layout 1 7/26/12 4:34 PM Page 1 Center for Immigration Studies C I S November 2019 What Terrorist Migration Over European Borders Can Teach About American Border Security By Todd Bensman The irregular migrant flow was exploited in order to dispatch terrorist operatives clandestinely to Europe. IS and possibly other jihadist terrorist organizations may continue to do so. — “European Union Terrorism Situation and Trend Report 2017”1 It remains a theoretical vulnerability but not one that terrorists have been able to exploit. — Nicholas Rasmussen, former National Counterterrorism Center director under the Obama administration, January 2019, regarding such infiltration over the U.S. southern border.2 Key Findings • At least 104 Islamist extremists entered the European Union’s (EU) external borders using long-haul ir- regular migration methods between 2014-2018, establishing proof-of-concept for a previously theoretical terrorism travel tactic over borders. • Of the 104 migrant terrorists identified for the 2014-2018 period, 28 successfully completed attacks that claimed the lives of 170 victims and wounded 878. An additional 37 were arrested or killed plotting at- tacks, and 39 others were arrested for illegal involvement with foreign terrorist organizations. • A majority of the 104 terrorists applied for international protections such as asylum and were able to re- main in European nations for an average of 11 months before attacks or arrests for plots, demonstrating that asylum processes accommodated plot incubation. • While total numbers of migrant-terrorists were a fraction of overall irregular migration, their activities demonstrate that small numbers present outsized threats to the United States should only a few strike here.
