British Muslim police group called IDF a terrorist organization, questioned Hamas atrocity reports
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The National Association of Muslim Police (NAMP) is facing intense backlash after it was revealed that a policy paper it promoted contained what critics say are «antisemitic lies,» while also facing accusations that the organization is «infiltrated or controlled by Islamists.»
This latest embarrassment for British police authorities comes as the government continues to face criticism for alleged two-tier policing, especially when it comes to anti-Israel and pro-British protests.
The paper from the organization, titled «From Past Prejudices to Present Policies: Confronting Anti-Muslim Hatred and Promoting Human Rights,» was recently unearthed by The Spectator.
In it, then-NAMP Vice President Khaldoun Kabbani refers to Zionism as «a narrow, nationalist, and colonialist viewpoint that fosters anti-Muslim hatred, among other forms of xenophobia, distancing itself from the inclusive and compassionate teachings of Judaism.»

In addition to calling the IDF a Zionist terrorist group, the paper surmises that «eventually» the IDF’s actions following Oct. 7 «will be recognized as terrorism, though likely without any reference to the Jewish faith.» The report appeared to be deleted from the web, though it continues to be hosted online through an archive at the Wayback Machine.
Andrew Fox, senior associate fellow at the Henry Jackson Society, told Fox News Digital that the paper is filled with «antisemitic lies and blood libels.»

Kabbani’s paper calls for «dismantling myths through education,» but he presents unsourced facts about Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack.
In one segment, Kabbani notes that «as the hostilities commenced, reports in Israeli and Western media outlets began circulating alarming and unverified stories about acts of violence by Hamas, including claims of beheadings and assaults. These reports have significantly contributed to increasing hatred towards Islam.»

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer vowed Thursday to boost security for the Jewish community following the latest attack against it, while urging Britons to unite against antisemitism. Facing accusations from angry British Jews that his government has repeatedly failed to protect them, Starmer pledged immediate increased funding for synagogues and other sites but insisted UK society must «come together» to «fight antisemitism».

Dr. Chen Kugel, head of the National Center for Forensic Medicine in Israel, told the themedialine in Nov 2023 that many of the burned bodies of Oct. 7 victims, including those of babies, are «without heads.» He admitted it was «difficult to ascertain whether they were decapitated before or after death, as well as how they were beheaded.»
Kabbani also said that reports of 120 children being killed by Hamas «have been challenged by more recent disclosures indicating that not a single Israeli infant was a casualty during the said attacks. It was later confirmed that only one child’s death occurred two days following the attack, with circumstances involving IDF gunfire and lacking precise details.»

Contrary to its report, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has stated that at least 29 of the fatalities from Oct. 7 whose ages had been provided by Oct. 25 were children.
The Campaign Against Antisemitism’s Director of Investigations and Enforcement, Stephen Silverman, said in a public statement that the NAMP paper is «evidence that a major national policing association has been infiltrated by or is controlled by Islamists.» Silverman called for those «responsible for publishing this extremist screed» to be «immediately investigated by their respective forces’ professional standards departments and dismissed.»

The National Police Chiefs’ Council did not respond to Fox News Digital’s questions about whether they were concerned by the NAMP’s paper, whether it would take action in reference to it, and whether its statements were problematic for public trust.

Fox News Digital also received no response from NAMP or the British government.
Noting the «skyrocketing antisemitism» in the United Kingdom, Fox said that the NAMP’s policy paper is «grossly inappropriate.» He said that «whilst it is important that minority groups have dialogue with the police to ensure their issues are considered, divisive internal organizations, such as a group for Muslim officers, are clearly counterproductive to public trust. This practice should be clamped down on immediately and no police force should engage with this organization going forward.»

Emmanuel Macron le ofreció a Siria ayuda francesa para convertirse en un nodo regional de energía y logística
El presidente de Francia, Emmanuel Macron, afirmó este martes en Damasco que su país está dispuesto a acompañar la reconstrucción de Siria y ayudar a convertirla, con el tiempo, en un “centro regional” para nuevas cadenas logísticas y corredores energéticos.
Macron participó junto al presidente sirio, Ahmed al Sharaa, en un foro económico en la capital siria, en el que ambos defendieron una nueva etapa de cooperación económica y atracción de inversiones tras la caída del régimen de Bachar al Asad, resultado de una ofensiva encabezada por el propio Al Sharaa en diciembre de 2024.
El presidente francés remarcó el interés de Francia en mantener e impulsar su apoyo para el desarrollo de Siria a través de una “asociación con efecto duradero” y “la construcción de ese nodo regional de corredores energéticos”.
Para ello, Macron, cuya visita a Siria es la primera de un líder de la UE desde el derrocamiento de Al Asad, sostuvo que la estabilización y reconstrucción del país deben generar oportunidades de empleo tanto para desplazados internos como refugiados en el extranjero.
“Es igualmente hacer de Siria, con el tiempo, un nodo regional”, afirmó al señalar que el país puede convertirse en un espacio donde se “desarrollen estrategias de largo plazo, nuevas cadenas logísticas y rutas energéticas que contribuyan a reducir los riesgos que afectan actualmente al funcionamiento de Oriente Medio”.
En ese contexto, aludió a las tensiones registradas en el estrecho de Ormuz como ejemplo de la necesidad de diversificar las rutas comerciales y energéticas, una circunstancia que, dijo, abre oportunidades para empresas e inversores franceses.
Antes de participar en este foro, hubo dos explosiones cerca del hotel donde se aloja Macron -sin que ningún autor las haya reivindicado aún- que provocaron al menos 18 heridos.
El presidente francés destacó el compromiso de Francia y de la Unión Europea con el levantamiento progresivo de las sanciones contra Siria y recordó que París fue uno de los primeros gobiernos en impulsar ese proceso, además de intentar convencer a otros socios, entre ellos Estados Unidos, para avanzar en esa dirección.
Asimismo, insistió en que la prioridad pasa por generar un “impulso de confianza” que permita atraer inversiones internacionales mediante un sistema financiero transparente y fiable.
En ese sentido, ofreció la cooperación de expertos franceses para apoyar la reforma del sistema bancario sirio, colaborar con el Grupo de Acción Financiera Internacional (GAFI), reforzar la cooperación con el Banco Central sirio y avanzar en la reestructuración de la deuda junto con el Fondo Monetario Internacional y el Club de París.
Según Macron, ese marco permitirá consolidar la estabilización del país y sentar las bases para una colaboración duradera que favorezca la creación de nuevos corredores energéticos y de conectividad regional.
Por su parte, Al Sharaa presentó a Siria como un país decidido a recuperar su papel económico gracias a su posición geográfica entre el Mediterráneo, el golfo Pérsico e Irak.
El mandatario afirmó que la reciente crisis en Ormuz puso de relieve el valor estratégico de contar con rutas marítimas seguras y sostuvo que Siria ha recuperado su relevancia como centro neurálgico para el comercio internacional.
“Queremos que Francia sea nuestro principal socio en este proyecto”, aseguró.
Asimismo, recordó que el grupo naviero francés CMA CGM firmó hace 14 meses un contrato para desarrollar el puerto de Latakia con una inversión de 230 millones de euros y posteriormente decidió ampliar el proyecto con otros 200 millones para incrementar la capacidad de la terminal hasta 625.000 contenedores antes de finales de este año.
Al Sharaa también expuso una amplia hoja de ruta para la reconstrucción que incluye la modernización de puertos, aeropuertos, navegación aérea, redes de electricidad y agua, exploración de recursos energéticos, digitalización de servicios públicos e impulso a las ciudades industriales.
Además, aseguró que su Gobierno trabaja en una reforma bancaria y regulatoria para reconectar el sistema financiero sirio con los mercados internacionales y facilitar la actividad de los inversores extranjeros mediante un entorno “seguro y transparente”, al tiempo que definió la alianza con Francia como un modelo para las futuras relaciones de Siria con Europa.
Macron, aseguró este martes que “nada podrá sofocar la aspiración de los sirios a vivir en una Siria plenamente soberana, segura, plural y unida”, después de las dos explosiones registradas en el centro de Damasco durante su visita oficial al país.
“He conocido esta mañana Siria en toda su diversidad. He visto dignidad, coraje y determinación. Mi visita continúa”, escribió el mandatario francés en sus redes sociales mientras proseguía su agenda oficial.
El Elíseo confirmó que Macron mantiene sin cambios el programa de su visita de dos días a la capital siria, pese a las explosiones registradas en las inmediaciones del hotel donde pasó la noche.

“El programa continúa”, indicaron fuentes de la Presidencia francesa, que precisaron que, en el momento de las detonaciones, el jefe del Estado se encontraba en el Palacio Presidencial, donde mantenía una reunión con el presidente interino sirio, Ahmed al Sharaa, y las delegaciones de ambos países.
Macron realiza la primera visita de un jefe de Estado o de Gobierno de la Unión Europea a Siria desde la llegada al poder de la coalición islamista. Durante el encuentro con Al Sharaa, ambos dirigentes abordan la reactivación de la cooperación económica, la reconstrucción del país y cuestiones de seguridad.
Según la televisión estatal siria Al Ijbariya y la agencia oficial SANA, dos artefactos explosivos improvisados detonaron cerca del Ministerio de Turismo y del hotel Four Seasons. El Ministerio del Interior indicó que los explosivos habían sido detectados por las Fuerzas de Seguridad Interna durante operaciones sobre el terreno y que se abrió una investigación para identificar a los responsables.
Las autoridades sirias informaron de que al menos 18 personas, entre ellas cuatro agentes de policía, resultaron heridas en las explosiones, sin que por el momento se haya reivindicado su autoría.
Los atentados se producen pocos días después de otro ataque con bomba en una cafetería frecuentada por abogados, que causó diez muertos y 21 heridos, coincidiendo con el inicio de los juicios contra altos cargos del derrocado régimen de Bachar al Asad, acusados de asesinatos y de la represión de las protestas de 2011 que desencadenaron la guerra civil siria.

Dem senator accused of being ‘nowhere to be found’ on crucial issue impacting kids in swing state
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., is being accused by Georgia’s top child welfare official of using vulnerable children and the state’s embattled foster care system for campaign credit after releasing a new ad touting his work on the state’s troubled system.
Georgia Division of Family & Children Services (DFCS) Director Candice Broce criticized the new foster care-focused ad released last week as the Georgia Democrat seeks re-election in one of the nation’s most closely watched races. In the ad, titled «Our Kids,» Ossoff highlights «a scathing report» and «yearlong bipartisan investigation» alongside Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., into the Georgia foster care system.
Ossoff presents his probe and new legislation as part of his record protecting children and holding the system accountable. However, Broce says the Democrat is overstating his role and turning a serious child welfare issue into a political victory lap.
«For five years, I’ve been in the trenches fighting for vulnerable children and foster care reform alongside thousands of DFCS workers. Trust us when we say Jon Ossoff is nowhere to be found,» Broce said in a post on X. «Ossoff didn’t get more funding for DFCS after calling us incompetent and resource-strapped. He didn’t secure more federal support for child advocacy centers despite the State’s requests.»

«He didn’t fix federal law putting group homes out of business,» she continued. «He hasn’t streamlined adoptions for kids placed with loving families. Jon’s ad sounds great, but his words are meaningless to the men and women in the arena.»
Ossoff’s team fired back, however, calling Broce an «unqualified partisan political hack» and accusing her of «dangerous incompetence.» They pointed to Ossoff’s oversight work highlighted in the advertisement that Broce criticizes, which the spokesperson said found children in Georgia’s foster care system were likely sex trafficked while in state care, among other issues.
«The Office of the Child Advocate, juvenile court judges, former foster children, nonpartisan advocates, investigative reporting, and Senator Ossoff’s yearlong investigation have laid bare the deep and dangerous dysfunction at DFCS,» an Ossoff campaign spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
The campaign also cited testimony from juvenile court judges who accused Broce of suggesting that children with special needs be held in juvenile detention while DFCS searched for placements. Broce has denied the allegations, describing them as politically motivated and arguing they distort a broader discussion about how to keep foster youth with complex behavioral issues, runaway histories and trafficking risks safe amid placement shortages.

«Candice Broce is a partisan political hack irresponsibly placed in charge of care for the state’s most vulnerable kids,» the Ossoff spokesperson said. «Instead of whining that her dangerous incompetence was made public, she should fix her broken agency.»
Broce rejected the attacks on her qualifications, pointing to her background as a health care attorney, former chief deputy executive counsel and chief operating officer to Gov. Brian Kemp and saying roughly 40 state agencies, including DFCS, reported to her in that role.
At the same time, she did not dispute that Georgia’s foster care system has faced serious challenges, but argued Ossoff used those problems for hearings, reports and campaign messaging without delivering meaningful help to fix them.
«If you’re going to beat us down, show up with something to make it better,» Broce said. «He didn’t do that.»

Broce said Ossoff could have used his federal role to pursue resources on Medicaid, behavioral health access and placement capacity, rather than simply spotlighting DFCS failures.
«What’s actually bipartisan is the over $100 million in state funds we’ve gotten from Republican and Democrat legislators who support the issues we’re tackling and believe we deserve more resources,» Broce said. «If he decides today that he actually wants to help us and vulnerable Georgia kids, we’d welcome him with open arms.»

However, Ossoff’s team contests it is not even «Senator Ossoff’s job to fix the state agency [Broce] leads» in the first place, and said Broce was whining that «it’s Senator Ossoff’s job to fix the state agency she leads.»
«While Sen. Ossoff led oversight, passed an anti-trafficking law, and helped save foster care funding President Trump cut, unqualified partisan hack Broce whines it’s Senator Ossoff’s job to fix the state agency she leads,» Ossoff’s representatives told Fox News Digital.

Broce’s criticism of Ossoff included a contrast between his record and that of Georgia’s other U.S. Senator, Democrat Raphael Warnock. Broce called the difference «stark,» pointing to Warnock’s community events for vulnerable mothers and children and adoption-related measures as examples of practical support she says Ossoff has not delivered.
«Compare his child welfare record to Warnock’s. It’s crystal clear which U.S. Senator from Georgia cares about vulnerable families and kids, and it’s not Jon,» Broce said in her X post.
Ossoff, who ran unopposed for the Democratic nomination, is seeking a second term in November against Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., who won the Republican nomination after defeating former football coach Derek Dooley in a mid-June GOP runoff election. Warnock will not face reelection again until 2028.
