Texas prosecutors will seek the death penalty against an accused illegal alien serial killer who has been charged with murdering 12 senior citizens and accused of murdering seven others.

This week, the Dallas Morning News revealed that Dallas, Texas prosecutors in the case against 46-year-old Billy Chemirmir, an illegal alien from Kenya, will seek the death penalty after charges that he murdered 12 elderly women between 2016 and 2018.

In Texas, the death penalty is only sought in cases where prosecutors believe the suspect committed particularly atrocious crimes against victims. The death penalty means Chemirmir, if convicted, would receive either a life sentence without parole or be put to death.

family massacre zagreb
Local media have described the killings of three women, two men and a 10-year-old child as an act of jealousy. Only a 7-month-old baby was left alive and uninjured in the house.

Croatian police have opened an investigation into the murder of six people inside a house in the capital, Zagreb.

In what Croatian media have called a "massacre," three women, two men and a 10-year-old child were found dead in the city's Kajzerica neighborhood on Thursday evening.

Police responded to reports of gunshots at the property but only found a seven-month baby alive and unharmed.

Uruguay issues travel advisory against traveling to US, citing inability of US authorities to stop mass shootings

us mass shooting vigil

Is America addicted to mass shootings? Have they become rare occasions on which the country unites around a common cause; the sacrifice of innocents to the 'god of America'?
Uruguay has warned its citizens against visiting the United States in wake of two deadly mass shootings, citing the danger of violence, hate crimes and racism and the 'inability' of US authorities to stop them.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Montevideo issued an advisory on Monday, urging Uruguayans to "take precautions against the growing indiscriminate violence, mostly hate crimes, racism and discrimination" if they are traveling to the US, noting that they have claimed over 250 lives in the first seven months of 2019.

Those brave souls that do venture north are advised to avoid crowded places and public events "such as theme parks, shopping centers, art festivals, religious activities, gastronomic fairs and any type of cultural or sporting events," especially if they are bringing children along.

Uruguayans were also urged to avoid some cities entirely, such as Detroit, Michigan; Baltimore, Maryland; and Albuquerque, New Mexico - which are listed among the twenty "most dangerous in the world" in a recent survey by the business magazine Ceoworld.

Comment: Sound advice, perhaps, and it is accurate to say US authorities can't or won't deal with mass shootings, but it's not due to that country's constitutional 2nd Amendment; it's due to its political unwillingness to expose the fascist organization(s) committing them (at least, the big ones that become media circuses).

A British Airways plan has made an emergency landing in Valencia after smoke allegedly engulfed the entire cabin.

Passengers could be seen being ushered off the plane via the evacuation slide on the runway at the Spanish airport in a video shared online.

Thick grey smoke had seemingly filled the cabin.

Zannah Marchand wrote on Twitter: "Just been evacuated off a flight to Valencia after plane filled with smoke. No water, no first aid. People crying. No BA representative. Help."

Miguel Galindo said his daughter Balma had been on the flight and took the video of the smoke filled cabin.

"She is OK now but apparently they flew for 10 minutes with cabin full of smoke, no info from crew and oxygen masks failed to release," he said.

Joanne Waterman said: "We are stranded at Valencia airport and no one from BA has said a word to us since the plane filled with smoke. No food, no bags, no information. Someone tell us what's going on."


Comment: Some other aircraft related incidents in recent times include: Planes suddenly 'disappearing' from radar, sometimes in "unprecedented" blackouts; more planes diverting due to "electrical burning and smoke smells", dramatic evacuations following 'catastrophic' engine failure, "engine fires" and plane wings "bursting into flames".

The mainstream media wants the Mifsud story to just go away

Foreign policy advisor to US President Donald Trump's election campaign, George Papadopoulos goes through security at the US District Court for his sentencing in Washington, DC on Sept. 7, 2018.
While many mainstream media journalists have been spinning fantasies for more than two years, based on Russian collusion stories being handed to them by anonymous sources, crack reporter John Solomon of The Hill has been pursuing real leads and uncovering actual evidence.

Now, Solomon is reporting that an audiotape containing professor Joseph Mifsud's deposition has been given to both U.S. Attorney John Durham's investigators and to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

"I can report absolutely that the Durham investigators have now obtained an audiotape deposition of Joseph Mifsud, where he describes his work, why he targeted George Papadopoulos, who directed him to do that, what directions he was given, and why he set that entire process of introducing Papadopoulos to Russia in motion in March of 2016, which is really the flashpoint the starting point of this whole Russia collusion narrative," Solomon told Fox News' Sean Hannity.

"I can also confirm that the Senate Judiciary Committee has also obtained the same deposition," he said.

Sweden set to deport underage Afghan migrant found guilty of murder

Afghan migrant murder Nyheter Idag

The deportation of Afghan migrants from Sweden has been a major issue over the last year with PM Löfven allowing around 9,000 underage migrants to remain in the country. While the 9,000 migrants were initially labelled as “underage,” reports revealed that as many as 78 per cent of the 9,000 were actually adults claiming to be children.
A Swedish court has found a 15-year-old Afghan guilty of attempted murder and sentenced him to a year of juvenile care as well as deportation, the migrant claiming he wanted to leave Sweden as he felt bad about the attack.

The unnamed male Afghan teen had stabbed a 16-year-old in the municipality of Staffanstorp, located just outside of the heavily migrant-populated city of Malmö, on the afternoon of April 28th with the victim requiring hospitalisation, Swedish broadcaster SVT reports.

While the 15-year-old admitted that he carried out the attack, he claimed that his intentions were not to kill the victim. The psychiatric evaluation showed that the Afghan national did not suffer any kind of mental issue.

According to news site Nyheter Idag, the youth requested to be sent back to Afghanistan, saying that he felt guilty about stabbing the 16-year-old.

Global markets are in panic mode — sparking a wave of investment into gold, bonds and currencies

At times of market turbulence, investors tend to flee to assets expected to either retain or increase in value — such as gold, the Japanese yen and government bonds.
Global growth worries and an intensifying trade war between the world's two largest economies sparked a stampede into perceived 'safe-haven' assets on Monday.

Gold prices jumped more than 1% to hit their highest level in over six years on Monday, while the Japanese yen and core government bonds also rallied.

It comes at a time of heightened volatility in financial markets, with the pan-European Stoxx 600 falling almost 2%. That's on top of the 2.5% it lost on Friday — its worst day so far in 2019.

The customs of Dubai seized a large batch of 274,000 pills of synthetic drug Captagon, which the smugglers hid on board a small vessel, the WAM news agency reported on Sunday.

Captagon is a psychotropic substance, co-drug to amphetamine. It is also known as the "jihadist drug", since terrorists in the Middle East often use it.

According to the agency, two suitcases with drugs were hidden in the fuel tank of the ship. They were found despite the fact that there was a large amount of diesel fuel in the tank.

Comment: It was only a month ago that the biggest ever Captagon haul - 33 million pills - were seized at a Greek port. Someone - clearly a well funded and organised entity - wants to keep those Jihadi's stocked up.
