Injured Palestinian girl in Israeli jail launches cry for help

Injured Palestinian detainee Shuruq Salah Dwiyat said the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) shot her twice in the chest and hand on allegations that she attempted to stab an Israeli settler.

Lawyer Hanan al-Khatib, from the prisoners’ committee, quoted 17-year-old Shuruq Dwiyat as stating that the occupation officers cordoned her off and left her bleeding on the ground for about half an hour before they transferred her to the Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital, where she had been held for four days and underwent a medical surgery.

Prisoner Shuruq Dwiyat, a native of Occupied Jerusalem city, was shot and injured by the IOF on October 11, 2015. She was arrested shortly afterwards.

Shuruq is currently held in the Hasharon Women’s hospital, handcuffed and tied to the bed.

The detainee further spoke out against the mistreatment and harsh offenses she has been subjected to at the hands of the Israeli officers.

“On my last day at the hospital I was transferred on a wheelchair to al-Mascoubiya detention center, where I had been made to endure four hours of exhausting interrogation.”

“Right after the investigation the occupation officers took away the wheelchair. I was left on my own, struggling to stand on my feet and walk. I couldn’t endure the pains inflicted by the surgery I’d just undergone,” she added.

“Shortly after, I fell over. The Israeli soldiers sneered at me because of my inability to walk on my own,” she said.

The injured inmate spoke out against the tiring eight-hour-long inter-prison transfer she had been through right after the surgery, referring to the nauseating stinks, psycho-physical torture, and medical neglect she has been subjected to.

The Israeli occupation authorities further slapped visit bans on prisoner Shuruq Dwiyat, denying her the right to see her parents even for short whiles.

At least four female Palestinian detainees are being currently treated in Israeli hospitals after they were shot and injured by Israeli bullet fire.

They have been identified as: Israa Abed, Israa Ja’abis, Marah Bakeer, and Istabraq Nour.

Germany: MKO plot to attack pro-Assad protesters foiled by police

Riot police had their hands full as dozens of anti-Assad activists tried to break through police lines to attack the pro-Assad gathering, among them many women and children, at Berlin’s famous Brandenburg Gate.

The anti-Assad activists were earlier whisked away by a handful of Munafeqins from a nearby anti-Assad rally at the Russian embassy.

Several Munafeqins could be overheard telling the mostly young anti-Assad activists to either attack or secretly infiltrate the pro-Assad rally to film or make photos of the gathering.

Police detained at least two people from within the MKO rally who managed to cross the other side of the street to infiltrate the pro-Assad rally.

The MKO rally was not linked to the Syrian issue but to the recent attack on the Baghdad-based Camp Liberty.

US Supports Terrorists to Maintain Israel’s Superiority

Hujjat al-Islam Sa’idi has said that the United States’ strategy in the Middle East is through launching proxy wars and supporting Takfiri groups, such as ISIL, to maintain the superiority of the Zionist regime and to pressure Iran.

“Imam Khomeini considered [the capture of the Den of Spies] move as a second revolution,” Qom’s Friday prayers leader said adding that “these three events provide common ground in the fight against the global arrogance, which is led by the criminal United States and these three anniversaries must be maintained by all Iranians.”

He made the remarks during his Friday prayer sermon delivered to a large and fervent crowd of believers in Qom’s Holy Shrine of Lady Fatimah al-Ma’sumah.

The Iranian scholar stressed that the anti-arrogant spirit of the Iranian nation Iranian must reach the ears of all the people of the world so that they realize that the discourse of the Islamic Revolution is still alive as is the hatred of the US.

He explained that the enemies seek to invalidate Iran’s policies and diplomacy, by claiming that Iran supports terrorism, abuses human rights and is undemocratic. These are “tricks” because for Iran, politics and diplomacy are inseparable and intertwined with our religion and beliefs.

His Eminence said that the US has not been able to resolve the many problems and crises in the Middle East, including in Yemen, Iraq and Syria and that their strategy in the region is through launching proxy wars and supporting Takfiri groups, such as ISIL.

He stressed that these are attempts at changing the political geography of the region and dividing nations by fomenting ethnic and religious conflicts to create a new form of polarity in the Middle East which maintains the superiority of the Zionist regime and puts pressure on the independent states of the region, such as the Islamic Republic of Iran, in order to change their behaviour and structure.

The revered Iranian scholar added that Iran’s strategy to maintain and enhance its deterrence against the enemies and this has been exemplified by the recent announcement of the successful test-firing of the country’s new precision-guided long-range ballistic missile “Emad.”

Hujjat al-Islam Sa’idi said that for Iran, internal unity and solidarity against the imperialist powers is very important, adding that some think that unity means offering concessions to the US but “this is the interpretation of the enemy, another one of Iran’s strategies is to create a new regional order focusing on the Islamic Resistance and pure Muhammadan Islam.”

He added that Iran seeks to accelerate the deterioration and destruction of the Zionist regime and prevent the presence and influence of the US in Iran and in the region and maintain its dignity, wisdom and expediency.

Qom’s Friday prayer leader stated that the US does not seek any goodwill for Islam or for the Islamic ummah, and does not want Iran to progress, have dignity, economic and intellectual independence or practice Islamic values.
