AFL: Playing finals unlikely for fading West Coast Eagles

WEST Coast’s second final-quarter fade-out in three weeks has made a finals berth this season very difficult.

The Eagles lost their spot in the top eight after Sunday’s eight-point loss to St Kilda at Etihad Stadium – a game they led by 22 points in the last term.

With three rounds remaining, Adam Simpson’s men are in ninth spot and one of four teams with a 10-9 record.

Their run home – especially the last fortnight – is arguably the toughest of the four finals hopefuls log-jammed from eighth to 11th on the ladder.

It starts with a winnable home game against Carlton at Domain Stadium on Saturday night.

Then comes games against the two premiership favourites – GWS and Adelaide – in consecutive weeks.

West Coast snatched a win in their last visit to Spotless Stadium late last season, but that was thanks to injured ruckman Nic Naitanui’s last-gap goal.

Venezuela opposition figures taken from homes

Leading Venezuelan opposition figures Leopoldo Lopez and Antonio Ledezma have been taken from their homes, according to tweets from their families.

“They just took Leopoldo from the house. We do not know where he is or where he is being taken. Maduro is responsible if something happens to him,” Lopez’s wife Lilian Tintori tweeted early Tuesday morning, referring to Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, who has cracked down on opposition leaders as tensions are once again ratcheted in the Latin American nation.

Lopez, a descendent of South American liberator Simon Bólívar and Venezuela’s first president Cristóbal Mendoza, was released from military prison to house arrest in July.

He was taken from his home shortly after midnight, his wife said on social media. Tintori also posted video that she says shows her husband being taken away.

It’s not confirmed who took him or where he was taken, but the video posted by Tintori shows Lopez being driven away in a car marked “SEBIN,” an abbreviation for the Venezuelan intelligence service.

U.S. threatens Syria, says Assad is planning chemical weapons attack

The White House warned Syrian President Bashar al-Assad on Monday that he and his military would “pay a heavy price” if it conducted a chemical weapons attack and said the United States had reason to believe such preparations were underway.

The White House said in a statement released late on Monday the preparations by Syria were similar to those undertaken before an April 4 chemical attack that killed dozens of civilians and prompted U.S. President Donald Trump to order a cruise missile strike on a Syrian air base.

“The United States has identified potential preparations for another chemical weapons attack by the Assad regime that would likely result in the mass murder of civilians, including innocent children,” White House spokesman Sean Spicer said.

“If … Mr. Assad conducts another mass murder attack using chemical weapons, he and his military will pay a heavy price,” he said.

White House officials did not respond to requests for comment on potential U.S. plans or the intelligence that prompted the statement about Syria’s preparations for an attack.

Trump, who took to Twitter not long after the statement went out, focused his attention on a Fox News report related to former President Barack Obama and the 2016 election rather than developments in Syria.

Trump ordered the strike on the Shayrat airfield in Syria in April in reaction to what Washington said was a poison gas attack by Assad’s government that killed 87 people in rebel-held territory. Syria denied it carried out the attack.

Kourtney Kardashian flaunts her figure in high cut white suit while beaching in Miami

 

Kourtney Kardashian knows she’s one hot mama.

The 38-year-old beauty didn’t shy away from showing her ex Scott Disick what was missing, strutting her stuff in an effortlessly sexy swimsuit that was cut high on the hips to reveal her tan, toned legs.

Her simple white suit was the perfect suit to feature Kourtney’s curves, cut so high upon the thighs you could see the starlet’s risque tanlines.

The already revealing suit was made even steamier when the chilly waters hit her body and made it’s clingy white fabric semi-sheer.

Kourtney didn’t seem to care though, splashing around with her little guy wore a tiny top-knot and little blue shorts.

After getting their fill of the ocean, Kourt and kid emerged to towel off shoreside.

As she arrived at her beach spot, the reality celeb turned around to adjust her suit…

London Bridge terrorists caught on camera before the attack, joking and hugging as they planned their massacre.

The images show Redouane, wearing an Adidas top, place his phone in the street before the trio walk down St Luke’s Avenue.

They are off camera for ten minutes, and it is thought that his phone was left in the street to ensure they were not monitored.

Redouane later returns to retrieve his phone and the group share a joke.

Police officers are now probing the footage.

One of the terrorists – Butt – helped as an assistant at the all-Muslim gym Ummah Fitness which is where they are seen meeting in the images.

The gym is run by Sajeel Shahid, 41, who was part of hate preacher Choudary’s network which allegedly helped set up weapons training in Pakistan for the 7/7 murderers.

How 16 jihadis come from south Manchester suburbs. The suburbs of hate

A network of jihadis willing to carry out deadly attacks in the name of their warped ideology has emerged from just a few square miles in Manchester in recent years, it has emerged.

Suburbs across the south of the city, including Moss Side and Fallowfield, have produced up to 16 jihadis who have either fled to Syria or Iraq, been killed fighting for their cause or are now in jail.

Salman Abedi, who murdered 22 people at an Ariana Grande concert on Monday night, grew up around the same estates as a group of young men who radicalised each other, it has been claimed.

There are fears he was part of a wider network of fanatics in Manchester – a cell that once included top ISIS recruiter, Raphael Hostey, who grew up less than a mile from the suicide bomber’s home in Fallowfield.

Hostey, a one-time rapper boasted of smuggling ‘hundreds’ of people into Syria before he was killed in a drone strike in April 2016.

He sponsored a number of young men from Moss Side, including former RAF gunner and Muslim convert Stephen Gray and Raymond Matimba in their attempts to join ISIS.

Hostey left Liverpool John Moores University and fled to Syria with 20-year-old students Khalil Raoufi, from Didsbury, and Mohammed Javeed, from Levenshulme.

Javeed was killed in a suicide attack in Iraq in 2014 while Raoufi died in combat in February the same year.

It was not the last time Hostey was linked to suspected jihadi recruitment.

Abedi’s sister Jomana, 18, was in the same year at the same school in Whalley Range that hit headlines in 2015 when 16-year-old ‘terror twins’ Zahra and Salma Halane moved to Syria to become jihadi brides – reportedly recruited by Hostey.  It is unclear whether they are still alive.

 Moss Side was also home to 50-year-old former Guantanamo Bay detainee, Ronald Fiddler, also known as Jamal al-Harith (pictured)

 Investigators were also looking into possible links between Abedi and Abdalraouf Abdallah (pictured), a Libyan refugee, also from Moss Side in Manchester

 Abdallah was shot in Libya and later jailed in the U.K. for terror offenses, including helping Stephen Gray (pictured), a British Iraqi war veteran and Muslim covert, to join fighters in Syria

The Manchester Arena bomber went to school with their brother Ahmed Halane, 24, at Burnage Academy, a boy’s school catering largely to the city’s Asian community. Ahmed is a terror suspect himself, banned from Britain under an exclusion order.

The twins’ cousin, student Abdullahi Ahmed Jama Farah, also from Manchester, was jailed for seven years in 2016 for acting as a communications chief for a battalion of British ISIS fighters known as the ‘Britanni Brigade.’

He was prosecuted after helping his friend Nur Hassan, 19, from Manchester, travel to Syria to join ISIS.

Five other friends from Manchester with links to extremism kept close contact with Farah as he ran communications for their ‘Britanni Brigade’.

Moss Side was also home to 50-year-old former Guantanamo Bay detainee, Ronald Fiddler, also known as Jamal al-Harith.

The Briton blew himself up at a military base in Iraq in February after fleeing to the country to join ISIS.

He was one of 16 men awarded a total of £10million in compensation in 2010, when the British government settled a lawsuit alleging its intelligence agencies were complicit in the torture of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay.  It is thought Abedi may also have been inspired by his action.
