Best of the Web: BC Supreme Court Justice slams RCMP: "The world has enough terrorists, we do not need the police to create more" - Entrapped couple's terrorism conviction overturned

Former Surrey residents John Nuttall and Amanda Korody embraced in the lobby of B.C. Supreme Court on Friday, passionately kissing, free after 37 months imprisonment, their terrorism convictions overturned.

"We're just happy," Nuttall said to reporters before leaving in a cab.

But within hours, after "a nice lunch on The Drive," four Vancouver police cruisers screeched to a halt and the couple was taken away in handcuffs.

Late in the afternoon, they went before B.C. provincial court Judge Reg Harris and agreed to peace bond terms that included geographic restrictions banning them from the legislature grounds, Canadian Forces Bases, synagogues and Jewish schools.

They were then released again.

Comment: This is huge news. B.C. Supreme Court Justice Catherine Bruce is saying the same thing we at SOTT have been saying for years. How many of these stories have we been seeing in the U.S. since the bogus 'war on terror' began!? Too many to count! Canada's "CIA" - CSIS - got in on the act of entrapping gullible and mentally challenged individuals - thanks to the instruction manuals and direction of their psychopathic buddies to the south, no doubt. But this case sets a precedent that will hopefully make them think twice about doing it again (it's a long shot, but it's more than the U.S. has).

Like the CIA, NATO and many other "security" agencies that exist, CSIS needs to manufacture acts of terror in order to justify its existence and payroll. These are the real terrorist nut jobs; demanding a salary for being able to act out their U.S. and Israeli-inspired pathological tendencies. Now if only something similar were to happen in the States.

Just a sampling of the hundreds of stories we have covered here highlighting the problem:

Man arrested for child abuse said God told him to throw boy into pool and repeatedly dunk him

Henry Love
Police said Henry Love woke up an 11-year-old boy at his home and took him over to a neighbor's house, where he dropped him in a pool and dunked him over and over.

"I don't know why he would have done that," neighbor Patty Tutoni said. "Baptism is in the church; it's not in your pool. I don't have any answer for him to do that."

Tutoni said she's been living next to Love for six years and that he's a quiet, decent man. "Any time I see him, he's always waving hello," Totoni said. "(He's a) very conservative neighbor. I love him as my neighbor, to be honest with you."

Two nuns, who were taken hostage by two jihadists in a Normandy church on Tuesday, gave accounts of their ordeals. They said one of the attackers smiled happily after slitting Father Jacques Hamel's throat and a bizarre theological dispute followed the crime.

Abdel Malik Petitjean and Adel Kermiche, both 19, were killed by French police as they tried to flee the 17th century Catholic church in the town of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray in the north of France just after killing its priest and seriously injuring an elderly parishioner.

Sister Huguette Peron and Sister Helene Decaux, both in their early 80s, were among the people taken hostage by the attackers, who pledged allegiance to the terrorist group Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL). Two days after the attack the still shocked women talked to the Catholic newspaper La Vie, which published their interview on Friday.

Dozens of civilians and surrendering militants have used humanitarian corridors set up by Russian and Syrian military in the besieged city of Aleppo, Russia's Defense ministry said on Saturday, adding that four more corridors are to open soon.

Russian-Syrian humanitarian operation in Aleppo began on Thursday when three humanitarian corridors were opened in the city.

Since then, 169 civilians have used the corridors, as well as 69 militants, who chose to lay down arms, Lieutenant-General Sergey Chvarkov, the head Russian reconciliation center in Syria, said.

An academic accused of imprisoning his 21-year-old daughter in Saudi Arabia, has failed to limit reporting of the case following a UK High Court ruling.

Amina Al-Jeffery was taken from her home in Wales four years ago and kept in a "cage" at her father's dwelling in Jeddah, according to the Independent.

Mohammed Al-Jeffery is believed to have locked his daughter up because she "kissed a guy."

At least 16 feared dead in fiery hot air balloon crash near Austin, Texas

Balloon crash
A hot air balloon carrying at least 16 people caught on fire and crashed in Central Texas on Saturday, causing what authorities described as a "significant loss of life."

The crash happened at about 7:40 a.m. in a pasture near Lockhart, and Lynn Lunsford with the Federal Aviation Administration said earlier that the balloon was carrying at least 16 people.

Sixteen deaths would rank the accident as one of the worst hot-air balloon crashes in history, surpassed only by a crash in Luxor, Egypt, in February 2013 that killed 19 people.

The crash in Texas Saturday appeared to be far and away the worst hot-air ballooning accident in the United States. That record had been six people who died in August 1993 in Woody Creek, Colorado, when a wind gust blew a balloon into a power line complex and severed the basket from the balloon.

Erik Grosof with the National Transportation Safety Board would not provide the exact number of fatalities.

Brothel bust: Rio de Janeiro police smash prostitution ring near Olympic stadium

Brazil Olympic Stadium
COPS in Rio have smashed a high-class prostitution ring operating in front of the stadium where Olympic Games will start in just a matter of days.

Pimps rented three luxury flats in a penthouse in Barra da Tijuca, turning it into a 24-hour brothel as they ran a child prostitution network.

Many of the expensive flats in the Villas da Barra complex are being rented out to international tourists with families and young children for thousands of pounds.

The debauched gang planned to pimp out girls to Olympic visitors and athletes.

The Olympic Park is just minutes away from the flats and is clearly visible in the recorded police images from the penthouse balcony.

Australia counter-sues guard-abused aboriginal minors in N. Territory prison

Australia has launched a counter-suit against two of the six aboriginal children recently revealed to have been abused by prison guards, alleging the minors had damaged the prison in an escape attempt.

Footage broadcast recently showed minors purportedly being abused at the hands of guards, who were seen hooding the youths, strapping them to chairs naked or half-naked, and throwing them into a cell by the neck at the Don Dale Youth Detention Center.

The victims filed lawsuits against the center and the guards, seeking compensation. Court documents from their legal complaint "outline in vivid detail mistreatment by staff at the facility, including beatings with batons and the use of teargas," according to Reuters.

In a July 4 response to the complaints, the Northern Territory government counter-sued, seeking over 120,000 US dollars in damages for "an escape attempt in which two of the boys stole a car, before using it to ram a roller-door and re-enter the prison." The government is further seeking interest on the damages and the reimbursement of its legal costs.

Aborigines comprise only three percent of Australia's population but make up 27 percent of prison inmates and represent a whopping 94 percent of the Northern Territory's juveniles detainees.

Comment: Dylan Voller, age eleven, aboriginal. Racist policing in Australia coupled with institutionalized abuse. Counter-suing children? Really? How does that work?

Police state spreads to UK: London police filmed pinning down, putting hood on young black man over argument with girlfriend

Police have launched an internal inquiry after footage emerged of a young black man being pinned to the ground by a group of officers and having a spit hood placed over his head at a London train station.

IK Aihie, 20, was detained by British Transport Police at London Bridge Station on July 21.

The officers claim Aihie became "aggressive" after they intervened in an argument between him and his girlfriend.

Police say he threatened to spit at them, so they placed a covering called a "spit guard" over his head, which is designed to protect officers from prisoners biting and spitting.

The footage shows Aihie yelling "it hurts, it hurts," as he is pinned to the ground.

'Boeing, Boeing, Gone': 747 jumbo jet may be nearing the end of the line

After years of lackluster sales, Boeing has warned it could stop producing its legendary 747 jumbo jet if orders do not pick up. "It is reasonably possible that we could decide to end production of the 747," Boeing said Wednesday in a regulatory filing.

The company previously announced it would halve production of the aircraft from 12 per year to just six beginning in September.

Dubbed the "queen of the skies," the world's original jumbo jet has long been a favorite of the flying public. The aircraft made its commercial debut in 1970, and more than 1,500 have now been delivered. But interest in the 747 has waned in recent years as airlines shifted most of their purchases to smaller, two-engined aircraft in order to save on fuel costs. The Airbus A380, another massive jumbo jet, has also suffered from weak demand. The 747 program has also been hit by slower growth in the air cargo business.

Boeing has at least one more high-profile 747 order to fill. In 2015, the Pentagon announced the next generation of Air Force One would be a military version of the 747.

Boeing (BA) shares are down roughly 7% so far this year. On Wednesday, the company said it lost $234 million during the most recent quarter.

Comment: Strange turn of events since April, 2016, when Boeing garnered four new orders valued $1.5B for its 747 and reported a new lease on life for its production model. Deliveries down? Orders unfulfilled? Stock prices? Maybe it's just 'plane' facts.
