It’s Time for Sweden to Admit Explosions Are a National EmergencyThe bomb exploded shortly after 9 a.m. Friday in a blast that ripped through two apartment buildings and could be heard for miles. Twenty-five people suffered cuts and bruises and 250 apartments were damaged. A nearby kindergarten was evacuated. Hospitals jumped into disaster mode. Photos from the scene show rows of demolished balconies and shattered windows. It was ”absolutely incredible” that no one was severely injured, a police spokesperson said.

NEWS IN BRIEF - Bleeding John Bolton Stumbles Into Capitol Building Claiming That Iran Shot Him
WASHINGTON—Bursting through the Congressional chamber doors while moaning and clutching his shoulder, John Bolton reportedly stumbled into the Capitol building Friday claiming that he’d been shot by Iran. “Help, help, I’ve just been attacked by a large Middle Eastern country around 636,000 square miles in size,” said the national security advisor, telling those assembled that he’d just been minding his own business when an aggressive Islamic Republic had thrown him on the ground and shot him with a long-range missile. “Right after Iran shot me, I heard the nation laugh and say ‘Somebody stop me before I go on a homicidal rampage.’ It was acting crazed and irrational, and I could smell enriched uranium coming from one of its urban centers. Please, hurry, if we move quickly, we might still be able to catch it before it’s too late.” Upon further questioning, Bolton admitted that the incident had happened so fast that it was possible he’d been attacked by Venezuela or North Korea.

RELIGIOUS CRITICISM: No Appeasement with Islamism (Hamed Abdel-Samad defends his right to freedom of expression and to criticize Islam at a conference at the Goethe University in Frankfurt)Is it racist to criticize Islam? No, says the political scientist Hamed Abdel-Samad. He defends his right to freedom of expression at a conference at the Goethe University in Frankfurt.
...
Abdel-Samad is not alone. Anyone who is critical of Islam sees itself exposed to threats in Germany. A recent Frankfurt example: Ten people belong to the "Initiative Secular Islam", a group of scientists and journalists who want to discuss Islam and reject a totalitarian understanding of religion. Four of them now have to be guarded by bodyguards. "Because they are on the kill list of any radicals," says Susanne Schröter. The professor of the Goethe University and director of the "Frankfurt Research Center Global Islam" wants to promote the critical engagement with religion. This is another reason why she has been invited to the conference "Secular Islam and Criticism of Islam", which is also being discussed by Abdel-Samad and Mouhanad Khorchide, Professor of Islamic Theology in Münster.

note:
Hamed Abdel-Samad became known to the public through his autobiography "My Farewell to Heaven/Mein Abschied vom Himmel" (2009). Abdel-Samad makes serious allegations against Islam and radical Muslims, such as wide spread hatred of Jews. Today the former Jew-hater researches at the Institute of Jewish History and Culture at the Munich University on anti-Semitism in the Arab world. After the publication of his autobiography in Egypt a group proclaimed a fatwa against Abdel-Samad. Abdel-Samad is therefore guarded day and night by the police. [A] [B]

Twelve German cities are now safe havens for boat peopleRescuers rescued from distress could henceforth find a place to stay in Germany faster: Twelve cities and municipalities join the "Safe Ports" alliance. Rottenburg, for example, wants to take in around 50 boat refugees from the Sea Watch.
...
In Germany it is not the municipalities that decide, but only the federal government and, in a second step, the federal states about the distribution of refugees. First and foremost, the alliance should therefore serve the exchange of knowledge between the cities that want to absorb and integrate migrants, writes the Berlin newspaper " Tagesspiegel".

Party threatened with division - scandal in Hamburg Greens: extremism allegations against MPsBlatant in the Greens in the district center: Although the green party has become the strongest faction here in the elections, only ten of the 16 elected MPs have taken part in the constituent meeting on Friday evening. The party threatens the split! It's about extremism, Islamism, terrorism.
The suspicion weigh heavily: The two new ones should be close to extremist organizations. One of them is said to have called for donations on Facebook for Ansaa International, an Islamist aid organization with ties to Hamas, whose ban has already been examined by the Federal Ministry of the Interior.

Islamist from Mönchengladbach - Dangerous, armed - and freeRashid K. is classified as an Islamist threat of the highest risk class. Although investigators have found a weapon with him and he is always criminal, he is free. His case is reminiscent of how to deal with Anis Amri.
...
In addition, the man is a rejected asylum seeker, who now lives unannounced in a conspiratorial apartment. He does not have much to lose. They monitor, observe. They search his apartment and find a semi-automatic weapon, loaded on a shelf. Next to it a box of ammunition and a silencer. They arrest the perjurer and think: lucky. An arrest warrant? Pure formality, on the street leaves so fast no one else.
...
Because Rashid K. is both deeply rooted in the Salafist scene and apparently at the same time entangled in organized crime. A phenomenon that is particularly noticeable among Chechen criminals, as the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) recently warned in a confidential analysis.
A deportation of Rashid K. is not possible, because his native Russia states that he does not know a man with his personal details. No passport papers, no deportation. And so the acquiescence of Raschid K. has been renewed for 14 years.
...
The justification of the judge: Since it is the front door of a multiple dwelling, it is unclear in which of the apartments the perpetrators might have wanted to penetrate. "Invoicing of the arrest warrant was rejected because the conditions, namely a gross infringement of a condition of the order to avoid detention, were not met," the court said in response to a SPIEGEL inquiry. In other words, property damage is not enough to activate the arrest warrant.
And so, despite his proven weakness in firearms and his alarming attitude, juggler K. remains at large, until further notice, a trial is a long way off. In two weeks is again the extension of his toleration. It will be its thirty-first.

"We will never return" - raisin bombers fly from the USA to Berlin - but do not get a landing permitAround 20 so-called raisin bombers flew over Berlin on Sunday - in memory of the legendary Airlift 70 years ago. The pilots had arrived in historical machines from the USA - but were not allowed to land or throw away sweets.
...
During the Soviet Berlin blockade from June 24, 1948 to May 12, 1949, the Western Allies had brought relief supplies by plane to the western part of the city, which was sealed off from the outside world - hence the affectionate term "raisin bomber." Americans, British and French supplied almost 280,000 flights more than two million inhabitants with nearly two million tons of vital cargo such as food and coal.
About 70 percent of the coal transports were flown to Berlin from Faßberg in Lower Saxony. The Allies had decided on the Airlift after the Soviets closed the highways to the western sectors of Berlin on June 24, 1948. All roads, railway lines and waterways to West Berlin were cut.

Dozens of union officials applauded. SPD Prime Minister Dietmar Woidke (57) did not contradict him.

The SPD leader Woidke agreed, said: "Public land must remain in public hands."
