Hi, all

Out of respect to the baby , I am not posting it.

 

But believe me, for once, I am crying while typing this cos, I dont think any child deserve this.

I chanced a upon an image of a headless toddler girl months back when I was looking at the IS beheadings. The image is accompanied by the distressed father holding the headless toddler's body with relatives crying at the background.

 

No father deserves such cruelty to fall upon their kids. That image imprinted in mind forever.

 

I hope the innocent may rest in peace and the culprits will burn in hell.

Today's Straits Times on page 2 and 3 showing 3 pictures of before, during and after an air strike.

 

Before - the black ISIS flag planted on a hill with 2 guys in vicinity.

During - there was fiery ball of explosion. That 2 guys were still there.

After - black smoke billowing thereafter but 2 guys were still apparently standing around!!

 

Despite that explosion, it didn't seem to kill the terrorists!

PM Lee holds dialogue on ISIS threat




SINGAPORE - Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Saturday said the ongoing conflict in Syria and Iraq has seen terrorist elements in Southeast Asia regrouping and getting more active.

And it was naive to think that Singapore can keep its head low and the threat will pass.

The Government had to do what was necessary to protect Singapore, he told around 300 religious and community leaders from various faiths and groups at the start of a closed-door dialogue with five other ministers on Singapore's concerns with the conflicts in both Middle Eastern countries.

"The threat of terrorism can cause doubts and sow divisions among communities, but we have avoided this danger because our people are rational, they have looked at facts squarely and forthrightly condemned extremists," he said.

Similar dialogues, involving briefings by Singapore's security agencies, have been held since the Sept 11, 2001 terror attacks on the United States and the discovery of a Jemaah Islamiah (JI) cell planning attacks in Singapore later that year.

They cover areas not made public, but which would help community leaders better understand what was happening and the Government's thinking and actions, Mr Lee said.

The last dialogue was in 2011, when JI was reviving its regional network, and since then, Osama bin Laden has been killed and successful counter-terrorism operations have neutralised some groups. But the threat has worsened recently, he added.

Mr Lee spoke in Malay, Mandarin and English, while Foreign Minister K Shanmugam spoke in Tamil.

Mr Lee noted that thousands of fighters from across the globe had flocked to ISIS, including hundreds from Southeast Asia, where former JI leader Abu Bakar Bashir had sworn allegiance to ISIS and his followers had given funds and support to the group.

Malaysia had also put out a White Paper on its strategies to tackle its citizens who returned after joining the group.

Several Singaporeans had also become radicalised, and a few have gone to Syria and Iraq.

Extremist terrorism, Mr Lee noted, could easily disrupt trust and harmony in Singapore's multiracial society.

And doing what was necessary, he said, included getting the support of the community, being vigilant domestically, and "taking swift action to neutralise threats to Singapore, or people who may get themselves in trouble".

Singapore has also contributed to the international effort to tackle the threat at its source, he noted.

The Singapore Armed Forces is joining over 60 other countries, including Muslim countries, in the coalition to fight against the terrorist group ISIS, and sending liaison and planning officers, a tanker aircraft for refuelling, and an imagery analysis team.

Mr Lee added that he appreciated how Singaporeans and the community and religious leaders had responded to the terrorist threat.

He said he was particularly grateful to the Malay-Muslim community, and highlighted the work of the Mufti and the Religious Rehabilitation Group(RRG), who have "done a lot to counter the ideological propaganda of ISIS."

The RRG, religious leaders who counsel terror detainees, have put out brochures and online videos pointing out why ISIS' brutal methods are against Islamic teachings.

At the same time, Muslim groups as well as organisations like the Singapore Buddhist Lodge, Taoist Federation and Bright Hill Temple have chipped in to help Syrian refugees.

Also present at the dialogue were Deputy Prime Minister and Home Affairs Minister Teo Chee Hean, Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen, Communications and Information Minister Yaacob Ibrahim and Culture, Community and Youth Minister Lawrence Wong.

"There are things we can do in Singapore but eradicating terrorism will be a difficult and long-term fight, and we have to continue doing it," Mr Lee said in his speech.

"Provided we work together and be open with each other and share and come close, we will prevail."

SAF to send 50 to 60 personnel to take part in efforts against Islamic State

SINGAPORE — The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) will contribute about 50 to 60 personnel to international efforts against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), said Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen today (Dec 1).

In an update to the press after launching a new Airborne Trooper Training Facility today, Dr Ng said the SAF has sent liaison and planning officers to the central command of the United States-led multinational coalition to get a sense of what the mission requirements are.

Coalition partners have responded positively to Singapore’s involvement, given the Republic’s past contributions to Afghanistan through the KC-135 refuelling tanker plane and its imagery analysis team, said Dr Ng.

“We are not expecting large numbers because the KC-135 refuelling tankers will have their complement. So I will gauge that if we contribute all the elements we talk about, we are talking about 50, 60 people,” he said.

When asked when the SAF will be setting off for the mission, Dr Ng said it will depend on the situation on the ground, which can be affected by the weather. The SAF is expected to deploy its troops in the Middle Eastern countries surrounding combat zones in Iraq and Syria.

The SAF will synchronise with coalition forces and deploy when and where its help is most needed, he said.

Two civil servants among three Isis suspects arrested, say police

 

Two civil servants were among three suspected terrorists arrested by police late last month for alleged involvement with the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (Isis) militants in Syria.

The duo, aged 23 and 28, working at a government agency in Kuala Lumpur, were believed to be responsible for channeling funds to Malaysians who wanted to go to Syria and fight alongside the Isis militants.

The third suspect, 36, was said to have joined Isis last year and was in Syria for about four months before returning to Malaysia on April 8.


Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar said the trio were picked up separately in an operation by Bukit Aman's Counter Terrorism Division in Kuala Lumpur and Kedah, on November 27 and 28.
He said all of them have been detained under the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act (Sosma). – December 2, 2014

SYDNEY: Australian police cordoned off one of Sydney's main business areas on Monday (Dec 15), with media reporting that hostages were being held in a cafe, according to Reuters.

Part of Martin Place, home to the Reserve Bank of Australia, commercial banks and close to the New South Wales (NSW) state parliament, was closed off by armed police. Live television footage showed patrons inside a cafe standing with their hands pressed against the windows.

A black and white flag similar to those used by Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria was also visible. There were two gunmen and 12 hostages in the cafe, reported local media.

NSW Police tweeted: "A police operation is underway in Martin Place, Sydney's CBD. People are advised to avoid the area."

"The black flag was being misreported as an ISIS flag, said Barton, who described it as a more general Islamic standard that "has been used by jihadi groups as a battle banner." Its use "suggests almost certainly that we're looking at some sort of terrorist attack," he said."

Thanks Vega for the consideration of not starting a thread, this is a standalone incident and you can actually start one, but since the discussion is going on, I have changed the title to link closer to the Sydney incident.

It is understood those evacuated may have been on the outside of the building, with reports that Opera House staff are still at their desks.

It is not yet known when the alleged evacuations occurred or how many people were involved. There are also no details as to the suspicious package.

The alleged evacuation of the Opera House comes in the same morning a gunman has held people hostage in a Martin Place Lindt Cafe.
