The threat to the UK from International Terrorism is SEVERE
The threat to Great Britain from Irish Republican Terrorism is MODERATE

Domestic:

ISIS has issued a direct threat to David Cameron by threatening to murder a British hostage after beheading a second US journalist. A masked Islamic State fighter spoke with an English accent as he executed Steven Sotloff in a video released online entitled 'A Second Message to America'. He then holds up a British man kneeling in an orange jumpsuit and warns: he is next. The disturbing threat leaves the Prime Minister with the chilling prospect of a British national murdering another in the name of ISIS. Steven Sotloff's killer is believed to be the same man that murdered James Foley two weeks ago - known as 'Jihadi John'.
The Government insists that Islamism in Iraq and Syria is a bigger challenge than al-Qaeda, and it is now floating new ways of tightening existing laws to protect the UK. Ideas include making it easier to seize passports at the border; temporarily suspending the right of British-born jihadists to re- enter the country; and beefing up Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures better to control the movements of those under surveillance.

A new poll released by The Times revealed that Britons believe the threat of terrorism has increased over the past five years. The YouGov survey found 45% of respondents felt more endangered than before – with just 13% saying the threat has decreased. A further four in 10 said the threat had not changed. Some 74% think it likely there will be further attacks on British citizens – compared to just 15% who think it unlikely. Almost one in 10 Britons also believe there is a “good chance” that their circle of friends and family are at risk.
British jihadists 'scoffed' at David Cameron’s drive against terrorism, saying [...] that nothing could stop them wreaking havoc in their homeland. Their reaction, in tweets and chat forums, came amid heightened fears over the threat from British women who had travelled to Syria. In a recent recruitment video to have emerged, it shows one woman, Khadijah Dare, 22, a Briton of Somali origin from Lewisham, south London, telling Muslims that it was their duty to join the jihad in Syria and Iraq. Intelligence sources are known to be concerned about the new threat from British-born women jihadists. Another woman, a former private schoolgirl, is said to have travelled to Syria to fight with Islamic State who also tweeted a series of radical messages, including a call for Britons to copy the murder of Lee Rigby.

Al-Qaeda has published a hit list of potential targets in Britain, including the military school in Sandhurst, MI5's headquarters and large department stores. The media arm of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) published the hit list in its English-language magazine, Inspire, which also included a guide to making car bombs. The nine-page manual, called Palestine: Betrayal of the Guilty Conscience al-Malahem, said big department stores could be targeted "during Friday prayers". It also suggested attacks on the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, in Berkshire, and Thames House, the London headquarters of MI5. In the US, the guide proposed Times Square, Las Vegas nightspots and oil tankers and trains among the list of possible targets. An English-language magazine published by al-Qaeda's media arm calls on Muslims around the world to use homemade car bombs on targets such as Las Vegas casinos, New York's Times Square and UK department stores. The magazine also published a timeline of terror attacks including a blank entry marked '201?' implying a terror attack on American soil is planned for the near future.

Warnings that a terror attack was due to be launched against Britain on 1 September were a hoax, police have said. Text messages and social media posts claiming that the London Underground was to be targeted imminently were widely circulated. The message read, "They think there's a terror threat and that it will happen on the tubes tomorrow around the west end area. So don't go travelling on tubes!! It's better to be safe than sorry. Please share..."

The parents of the 20-year-old woman from Glasgow who travelled to Syria and married an Islamic State (IS) fighter have broadcast an appeal to her to come home.
 Khalida Mahmood and Muzaffar Mahmood spoke of their shock at Aqsa's apparent radicalisation. She is thought to have travelled through Turkey in November 2013.
The UK is to offer France the security fences used at the Nato summit in Newport to help tackle migrants trying to get into the country illegally from Calais, the immigration minister says. Writing in the Sunday Telegraph, James Brokenshire said the 9ft-high steel barricade could "replace and enlarge... inadequate fencing" at the French port. It was the latest in a line of measures the UK had taken, he said. An increasing numbers of migrants have flocked to Calais in recent months. Mr Brokenshire said the current fencing at the port was "too easy for illegal immigrants to scale". Earlier this week scores of illegal migrants were able to get past security and tried to run up the main ramp of a ferry bound for the UK. But they were foiled when the crew raised the ramp and turned a fire hose on them.

Detainees at an immigration removal centre say they were "treated like criminals" after a day of unrest on Saturday. Disorder broke out at Morton Hall in Swinderby, Lincolnshire, following the death of a man at the centre overnight. Staff withdrew for their safety and prison officers in riot gear were called in when about 30 men reportedly refused to stay in their rooms. The Home Office said an investigation into the man's death was taking place.

It was reported on 4th September 2014 that woman is thought to have been beheaded in the garden of a north London house. The victim was found at an address in Nightingale Road, Edmonton, at about 13:00 BST, police said. A man has been detained and is in custody.

The number of constabularies in England and Wales should be cut to save money, a senior police leader has said. Police Superintendents' Association president Irene Curtis said there were "too many chief constables and too many police and crime commissioners". The 43-force structure wasted millions of pounds and had not been reformed for 40 years, she said. Policing minister Mike Penning said forced mergers would reduce the quality of neighbourhood policing. Ch Supt Curtis was speaking ahead of the association's annual conference in Warwickshire.


Northern Ireland and Eire:

A man has been shot in both feet in a paramilitary-style shooting in north Belfast on Saturday. The man was taken to hospital following the incident which occurred in Havana Walk in Ardoyne shortly after 20:00 BST. His injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. Police have appealed for anyone with information about the attack to contact them.

Belfast's busiest road was closed for 41⁄2 hours last week following the discovery of a suspect device - later found to be a hoax. A two-mile stretch of road was closed in both directions [...] after a suspect device was found tied to a lamp-post in a road in west Belfast. A British army bomb expert examined the device and declared it to be an elaborate hoax. A local SDLP councillor said that the alert caused "massive disruption". He said, "Society has moved on and nobody wants this madness in their community ... People are fed up with this type of disruption and just want to get on with their lives in peace."

Hundreds of IRA terrorism suspects will learn they no longer have immunity from prosecution as the Government announces that hundreds of controversial “comfort letters” are to be rescinded. Theresa Villiers, the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, will tell MPs that the letters, issued to individuals suspected of terrorist offences committed before the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998, are worthless. Suspects are to be told that the letters, which informed them they were unlikely to face prosecution unless new evidence against them came to light, have been annulled and are “not worth the paper they are written on”. New letters are now likely to be issued telling terrorist suspects that police will be prepared to mount a prosecution should officers believe there is already enough evidence against them to do so.

The authorities have been urged to investigate claims that girls in care homes were abused by members of the security forces. The abuse is claimed to have taken place in several homes in Northern Ireland in the 1970s. East Belfast Alliance MP Naomi Long said she had been approached by a number of women. Ms Long has called for the Kincora scandal to be included in a Westminster historic child abuse inquiry.
 "A number of people have since approached me, particularly a group of women who claimed that they were abused whilst in care," she said. "But more than that, when they absconded from care, during the time when they were in care, they were further abused by members of the security forces and also by the police who were really charged with returning them to care but instead took advantage of that situation.
 "I think what it says is that there are serious issues in terms of child protection that were breached at that point in time that really need to be looked at in a more in-depth way that has been the case to date." Three senior care staff at Kincora Boys' Home in east Belfast were jailed in 1981 for abusing 11 boys in their care.


International:


A second Lebanese soldier taken hostage by Islamic State (IS) militants has been beheaded, reports say. Photos of the killing of the soldier - named as Abbas Medlej - were posted on social media networks. The Lebanese military said it was investigating the reports. Some of the hostages are reportedly being held by IS and others by the al-Qaeda-linked Nusra Front. IS earlier threatened to kill a soldier every three days if the Lebanese government did not agree to release the group's members detained in Lebanese jails.
There has been fresh shelling near Donetsk airport in eastern Ukraine, raising fears that a 36-hour-old ceasefire may collapse. The truce held for much of Saturday but shelling in Mariupol, which killed one woman, was followed by the Donetsk airport blasts early on Sunday. The truce and 12-point peace roadmap was signed at talks involving Ukraine, Russia, the rebels and the OSCE. Fighting in the east has left some 2,600 people dead since April. Russia has repeatedly denied accusations by Ukraine and the West that it has been sending regular troops into eastern Ukraine to help the rebels, who want to establish an independent state.

Russia has dispatched a group of ships from its Northern Fleet to the Arctic, with the aim of restoring a permanent base in the region, Russia media say. A detachment including two amphibious vessels and an anti-submarine ship set off from the fleet's base in Severomorsk, near the Norwegian border. It will take equipment and personnel to the eastern New Siberian Islands. Russia is boosting its naval presence in the Arctic as regional powers seek to claim its rich natural resources.
The US has carried out a series of air strikes on Islamic State militants close to the vital Haditha dam in western Iraq, US officials say. The US strikes, the first in the area, were to protect the Iraqi forces and Sunni tribesmen in control of the dam.

Iraqi government forces say they have cleared Islamic State (IS) militants from a wide area around the strategic Haditha dam, helped by US air strikes. The jihadists have repeatedly tried to capture the dam on the River Euphrates in the western province of Anbar from government troops and allied tribesmen. The action marked a widening of US military action which has previously been restricted to northern Iraq.
The United Nations has sent negotiators to talk to al-Qaeda's branch in Syria to try to win the release of 45 peacekeepers seized in fighting. The unusual direct talks were revealed after the jihadist group Jabhat al-Nusra made public its list of demands for returning the captured Fijian peacekeepers. Many Jabhat-related social media accounts have also called for the release of Abu Musab al-Suri – a long-standing al-Qaeda leader who is said to have masterminded the London Underground bombings of 2005 and the Madrid train bombings a year earlier. The group's official demands included taking Jabhat off the United Nations' list of proscribed terrorist organizations, relief supplies being allowed into a Jabhat-controlled town in Syria, and compensation for three fighters killed in fighting.

A laptop owned by an ISIS militant appears to show the group’s plans to develop and use chemical weapons including the bubonic plague. The computer, shown to Foreign Policy reporters, was found to include the typical propaganda and instruction manuals, but the physics and chemistry student who owned the laptop also had a 19-page document on how to develop biological weapons, including the bubonic plague. It included instructions on how to test the weapons on mice. "Use small grenades with the virus, and throw them in closed areas like metros, soccer stadiums, or entertainment centres," the document says, reported Foreign Policy. "Best to do it next to the air-conditioning. It also can be used during suicide operations."

President Obama has ordered about 350 more US troops to Baghdad to protect American diplomatic facilities and staff in the Iraqi capital. The announcement came hours after the so- called "Islamic State" (also known as ISIL) released another video showing a masked militant with a British accent cutting the throat of a US captive.

Pope Francis is on the ISIS watch list, according to Italian newspaper Il Tempo. Security has been heightened in Rome while ISIS is suspected to shift their focus to Europe to “raise the level of confrontation.” ISIS feels Pope Francis has inaccurately represented Islam, yet ISIS is not a true representation of Islam itself, rather an extremist take. However, a Vatican spokesperson denies there is any threat or credibility to the information that emanates from Israeli sources. “There is nothing serious to this,” he told the Catholic News Agency. Regardless, a nationwide warning has been sent out.
General Martin Dempsey, the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, has said he does not believe ISIL is planning attacks against the US or Europe. If the group does become a direct threat to the US, he said he would recommend US military action against ISIL in Syria. Gen. Dempsey also said he believes key allies in the region - including Jordan, Turkey and Saudi Arabia - will join the US in defeating ISIL.

On 30 August, the US Secretary of State called for “a world coalition” to defeat the Islamic State militant group that has seized control of large parts of Iraq and Syria [...]. In an op-ed for the New York Times [...] John Kerry wrote, “In a polarised region and a complicated world, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria presents a unifying threat to a broad array of countries, including the United States. What’s needed to confront its nihilistic vision and genocidal agenda is a global coalition using political, humanitarian, economic, law enforcement and intelligence tools to support military force.” Mr Kerry also wrote, “Airstrikes alone won’t defeat this enemy.”

Amid the kidnappings, the demands for riches and the executions, a name of controversy and conspiracy has re-emerged: Aafia Siddiqui. Once called the “most wanted woman in the world,” she is now more widely known as “Lady al-Qaeda.” And Islamic State leaders want their lady back. They want her back so badly, jihadists said they would have traded James Foley for Siddiqui, who’s in US prison. They said they would have traded Bowe Bergdahl for her. They said they would trade a 26-year-old American woman, kidnapped one year ago, for her.

Radical Muslim cleric Abu Qatada has condemned the beheading of two US journalists by Islamic State militants. He said reporters were "messengers of the truth" and killing them contradicted Islamic teachings. He was speaking to the media from the dock of a court in Amman, Jordan, during a hearing in a terrorism trial. The case against Abu Qatada, who was deported from the UK last year after a long legal battle with the government, was adjourned until 24 September. He is on trial in Jordan over his alleged involvement in a thwarted plot aimed at the millennium celebrations in the country in 2000.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel last week defended her government's decision to send arms to Kurds fighting Islamic State militants in Iraq. "The far-reaching detribalisation of an entire region affects Germany and Europe," Merkel said in a speech to the Bundestag lower house, noting that the Islamist group controlled an area in Iraq and Syria that was half the size of Germany. "Ladies and gentlemen, when terrorists take control of a vast territory to give themselves and other fanatics a base for their acts of terror, then the danger rises for us, then our security interests are affected.”

Three men arrested over a foiled attempt to bomb the Philippine capital's airport were also planning to attack the Chinese embassy and one of Manila's biggest shopping malls, authorities said on 2 September. The men, who were detained at the airport with a van containing petrol bombs and firecrackers, had planned a series of consecutive attacks, apparently to publicise their anti-China grievances, the country’s Justice Secretary told reporters. Source A bid to plant car bombs at the Philippines' main airport and a nearby shopping mall has been foiled. The motive for the bomb plot was not immediately clear but in the past such attacks in Manila and other parts of the largely Christian Philippines have been blamed on al-Qaeda-linked Islamist militants from the Abu Sayyaf group.

Al-Qaeda has announced a new branch in the Indian subcontinent. In a video message last week, its leader Ayman al-Zawahiri declared the launching of a new branch for the subcontinent. Al- Zawahiri in a statement: “We want Islam to return to the Indian subcontinent which was part of the Muslim world before it was invaded.” Asim Umar, chief of Al Qaeda's Shariah Committee in Pakistan, will be the leader of the new branch.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has warned Hamas it must change the way it operates in Gaza if it wants to continue in a unity government. Mr Abbas criticised the "shadow government of 27 deputy ministers" running Gaza, insisting that there must be "one regime". Gaza is recovering after a devastating 50-day conflict with Israel.

Iran had agreed to provide information to help allay concerns about a military dimension to its programme, but had failed to do so, the IAEA reported. These include suspected work on detonators which can set off nuclear bombs and high explosive charges. It comes weeks before a deadline for Iran and world powers to reach a final deal to resolve the nuclear issue. The US, EU and other powers suspect Iran is secretly seeking to develop nuclear weapons. Iran has strongly denied the charge, insisting its programme is purely for peaceful purposes.

The leader of the Somali Islamist group al-Shabab, Ahmed Abdi Godane, was killed following a US attack earlier this week, the Pentagon has said. The US carried out air strikes Last Monday night destroying a vehicle and an encampment south of the capital. Somalia's president issued a statement on Friday urging militants to embrace peace after the death of their leader. Godane was one of the US state department's most wanted men.
Somalia's Islamist group al-Shabab has named Ahmad Umar as successor to former leader Ahmed Abdi Godane, who was killed in a US air strike. The group announced the move in an online statement, vowing to take revenge for Godane's death.

Bodies remain littered on the streets of a northern Nigerian town two days after it was seized by militant Islamists, a lawmaker has told the BBC. Boko Haram fighters were patrolling the streets of Bama, preventing people from burying the dead, Ahmed Zanna said. On Wednesday, the state government denied the town had fallen.

Iran has missed a deadline to answer questions about its nuclear programme, the IAEA global nuclear watchdog says.

Ebola represents a threat to all humanity and an outbreak of the virus in five West African countries will likely spread to more, American officials warned last week. "This is not an African disease. This is a virus that is a threat to all humanity," a special assistant to President Obama and senior director at the National Security Council, told reporters. About half of the 3,000 people sickened have died in the current Ebola outbreak, which has hit Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Nigeria and Senegal. The disease is spreading faster than health workers can keep up with it, a spokesperson from the US Centre for Disease Control and Prevention.
A three-day lockdown announced by Sierra Leone to combat Ebola will not help contain the virus, medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) says. The charity said a lockdown would force people underground, destroy trust between doctors and the public and ultimately help spread the disease. Sierra Leone officials say the measure, due to begin on 19 September, will let health workers isolate new cases.
A US aid worker infected with Ebola in Liberia has arrived in Nebraska for treatment in an isolation unit. Dr Rick Sacra, 51, a family doctor from Massachusetts, worked at the same hospital as the two other infected Americans, who are now recovering. One of them, Nancy Writebol, said resources at the hospital were insufficient to protect workers.

Ousted Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi is being charged with handing over national security documents to Qatar, the state prosecutor says. Relations between Egypt and Qatar have been strained since the military ousted Mr Morsi in July 2013 after protests against his one-year rule. Qatar supports the Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamist group to which he belongs. He faces several trials for charges including espionage. He has called the court illegitimate.

A freed French hostage has claimed that one of the Islamists who held him captive in Syria was the suspect in the Jewish Museum shooting in Brussels. Nicolas Henin told Le Point magazine that Mehdi Nemmouche regularly tortured captives in Syria in 2013. Four people were shot dead in the attack at the museum in May this year.

A US citizen detained in North Korea after allegedly tearing up his visa will be put on trial on 14 September, North Korean state media report. Matthew Miller, 24, was arrested in April at North Korea's immigration. He is one of three Americans currently held in North Korea. Last Monday, Mr Miller and the two other men made a televised appeal for help from the US government. North Korea has a history of using detainees as bargaining chips.

India's Supreme Court has put on hold the execution of a man in a murder case dubbed "the house of horrors". In 2009 Surinder Koli and his employer Moninder Singh Pandher were convicted of murdering a 14-year-old girl. Pandher was later freed by a higher court. On Monday the Supreme Court delayed the execution to allow a final appeal to be heard in an open court. The crime shocked the country, with many accusing the police of negligence. Police say at least 19 young women and children were raped, killed and dismembered in a house where Koli worked as a servant for the owner in the suburb of Noida near Delhi. Koli has been found guilty of kidnapping, murder and attempted rape in at least five cases involving children. Last week, authorities announced that he would be executed on 12 September in the northern city of Meerut in Uttar Pradesh state. Early on Monday, the Supreme Court put on hold the execution by a week after Koli's lawyer argued that his client was entitled to a fresh appeal, media reports say. Last week the top court had ruled that review petitions of death-row prisoners which had been rejected in a closed chamber should be taken up again in an open court, and that the convict's lawyer should be given an opportunity to defend his client.


Cyber Security:

Cyber attackers took down Sony’s PlayStation Network in what appears to be the first strike in a campaign against online gaming services. Hours later, an aircraft carrying the company's president, John Smedley, was grounded following a bomb threat. A group called the Lizard Squad claimed responsibility for the attack, which shut down Sony’s servers on 24/25 August. They also used Twitter to claim there were explosives on the American Airlines plane carrying Mr Smedley from Dallas to San Diego. Police and the FBI are investigating the cyber-attack, which the Lizard Squad claims was carried out on behalf of ISIL in response to US air strikes on jihadis in Iraq, although officials 'played down' the link to the terror group. Hackers who attacked PlayStation gaming servers and grounded a plane have told Channel 4 News that, contrary to
 media reports, they are not linked to ISIL jihadists and are based in the US.

North Korea's cyber-warfare capabilities are on the rise despite being entrenched in ageing infrastructure and dampened by a lack of foreign technology. According to a report released by Hewlett-Packard researchers, the so-called 'Hermit Kingdom' may keep Internet access from the masses and maintain an iron grip on information exchange, but this has not stopped the country from training up the next generation of cybersecurity and cyber-warfare experts. A number of countries, including the United States, have imposed restrictions on North Korea that prevents the open trade of technologies that would enhance cyber-tools and capabilities - due to the regime's treatment of citizens and closed-border policy. However, according to HP, the country is "remarkably committed" to improving its cyber-warfare capabilities.
Cybercrime experts from police forces around the world are coming together to form a new body, the Joint Cybercrime Action Taskforce (J-CAT), aiming to tackle the smartest online criminals. Andy Archibald, deputy head of the National Cyber Crime Unit with the UK’s National Crime Agency, has been placed in charge of the team, which will be based in the European Cybercrime Centre (EC3) at Europol. Cybercrime police from Austria, Canada, Colombia, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, the UK and the US have already committed to taking part in the six- month pilot for J-CAT. The team will coordinate investigations into widespread threats, including viruses that steal banking logins, and high-profile criminals, such as those dealing hacker tools and selling personal data on underground forums.
NATO is set to agree a new cyber defence policy that would mean any severe cyber-attack on a NATO member could be considered tantamount to a traditional military attack and invoke the alliance's collective defence provisions. Article V is the collective defence clause of the NATO treaty by which an attack on one member is considered an attack on all. Extending this rule to cyberspace is on the agenda for a NATO summit in and around Cardiff, Wales later this week, the New York Times reports.

And Finally ...
US veterinary surgeons operating on a sick dog got a shock when they discovered the cause of their patient's malaise - 43 and a half socks. The 64kg Great Dane had an affinity for chewing socks but no-one knew he was swallowing them whole, a spokeswoman from the animal hospital said. The vets, who operated on the dog in February, said that it was the most socks they had pulled out of an animal. The dog, which recovered, has now won a prize for its strange eating habits.

And Finally, Finally ...
Spanish police have arrested a 43-year-old Venezuelan woman who landed in Madrid's international airport trying to smuggle 3.7 pounds of cocaine via her breast implants. Narcotics agents started to suspect something was up while they were performing routine screenings of passengers who had arrived from Bogota, Colombia, and the woman began acting strange. Her luggage searches didn't reveal anything suspicious, but when female agents frisked her they noticed irregularities and deformities in both of the woman's breasts. The woman eventually copped to carrying implants stuffed with cocaine, according to a police statement. She was sent to a hospital and detained for an alleged crime against public health, the statement added. Surprisingly, stuffing breast implants with contraband is not uncommon, according to Dr. Matthew Schulman, a New York City board-certified plastic surgeon. "There were alerts put out several years ago about concerns about terrorists using breast implants as a way to move bombs, so it's one of those things in the plastic surgery community we are aware of," he said. "It's probably done more often than people realise."
