Islamic State insurgents threatened on Tuesday to turn the Gaza Strip into another of their Middle East fiefdoms, accusing Hamas, the organisation that rules the Palestinian territory, of being insufficiently stringent about religious enforcement.

The video statement, issued from an Islamic State stronghold in Syria, was a rare public challenge to Hamas, which has been cracking down on jihadis in Gaza who oppose its truces with Israel and reconciliation with the US-backed rival Palestinian faction Fatah.
"We will uproot the state of the Jews (Israel) and you and Fatah, and all of the secularists are nothing and you will be over-run by our creeping multitudes," said a masked Islamic State member in the message addressed to the "tyrants of Hamas".
"The rule of sharia (Islamic law) will be implemented in Gaza, in spite of you. We swear that what is happening in the Levant today, and in particular the Yarmouk camp, will happen in Gaza," he said, referring to Islamic State advances in Syria, including in a Damascus district founded by Palestinian refugees.
Islamic State has also taken over swathes of Iraq and has claimed attacks in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia and Yemen.
Hamas is an Islamist movement that shares the jihadis' hostility to Israel but not their quest for a global religious war, defining itself more within the framework of Palestinian nationalism.
Deemed a terrorist group by Israel, the United States and the European Union, and viewed by neighbouring Arab power Egypt as a regional security threat, Hamas's struggle against Islamic State-linked jihadis has not won sympathy abroad.
Israel's intelligence minister, Israel Katz, accused Hamas on Tuesday of partnering with Islamic State affiliates in the Egyptian Sinai - a charge long denied by the Palestinian group.
"There is cooperation between them in the realm of weapons smuggling and terrorist attacks. The Egyptians know this, and the Saudis," Katz told a Tel Aviv conference organised by the Israel Defense journal. "At the same time, within Gaza, ISIS (Islamic State) has been flouting Hamas. But they have common cause against the Jews, in Israel or abroad."

London: High alert was sounded across England and security tightened up after ten Hindus were seen doing Yoga which has got everything to do with Hinduism.

Intelligence photo of Hindus performing Yoga in London park today (Proof: Hand pose and Saffron mats)

Describing the alert, British Police Chief, Robert, said, “United Kingdom had been subjected to violence, attacks and hate speeches in the past. But, none of them were related to any religion. But, for the first time in the European soil, we could see a religious activity being done in the middle of the city, in day light, in a park where people of multiple faiths go for walk. According to reports, people were shocked to see around ten men, obviously Right-wing Hindus, doing Yoga around 8 AM in the park today morning. As soon as we got the reports, we immediately cordoned the place and sounded high alert across Europe.”
“We advise people to take care of their offensive levels and not get offended by seeing such religious activities being forced to our retinas by communal Hindus in a secular Europe. Such visual terrorism is the trademark of saffron terrorism, funded by Hindu Nationalist government and carried to our multicultural land by communal Hindus. Last week, there were training taking place in hidden areas of England. But today, they have tried to disturb our peace by showing such religious acts in open spaces. We will never tolerate such acts. We have remanded the people who had disturbed mental peace of people practicing other religions,” added Robert.
Following the alert, UK PM David Cameron immediately spoke to media. When viewers, bored of his usual non-tirade of ‘nothing to do with religion’, were about to turn off their TV or mobile live feed of his interview, he let off the biggest shock of his political career.
Cameron said, “People doing religious activity in the heart of England strikes fear into our hearts. But, we will not be scared of such attacks on our values. Yoga has got everything to do with religion and hence, I condemn this activity.” Britishers were shell shocked and choked by this sudden change of Cameron’s usual words post such alerts.
Meanwhile, in another news, five bombs which has got nothing to do with religion, ripped across different parts of Europe killing few infidels, following which the alert level was reduced and people were assured that normalcy has returned back to Al England.

On Friday morning, the Supreme Court ruled that same-sex marriage was a protection granted by the Constitution, legalizing same-sex marriage across the country.

Many will see this as a victory for freedom and democracy, while others will see it as an over reach of the Federal government and a loss of states' rights. Either way you feel, its a historic decision on a hot-button topic that's been debated for years now.

How do you feel about this landmark decision? Do you see it as a win for freedom and marriage equality or a loss for states' sovereignty and what some opponents call "family values"?

Breaking up is hard to do... so what's your worst break up story?

My girlfriends are hard on me because I'm famous for the " It's not you, it's me" line. Even worse, I'm the kind of girl that doesn't feel that I need to tell you why I don't want to see you anymore if it's under five dates. I feel that five dates and under is a "trying on period". If I don't feel it fits, I'll return it without needing a reason beyond " It's not you, it's me". Horrible right... but I'm working on it- I promise.

So tell me, what is your worst break up story, either as the giver or the receiver?
Do you have a break up line you stick to?

In a historic day for Indian sport, Satnam Singh Bhamara has become the first basketball player from the country to be drafted into the National Basketball Asociation (NBA). In the 2015 NBA Draft that was held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York on Friday, the 19-year-old from Chawke village in Punjab was picked up by 2011 NBA Champions Dallas Mavericks as the 52nd pick out of the 60 picks, thus becoming the first player from the country to be chosen by a leading NBA team.

Prior to the Draft, Satnam had done the pre-draft workout with seven teams – Boston Celtics, Sacramento Kings, Washington Wizards, Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs and Portland Trailblazers – and had impressed many coaches with his height and build.
He had been undergoing intense training at the IMG-Reliance academy in Florida for the last 5 years, thanks to a scholarship provided to him in 2010. That opportunity to train under some experienced coaches has well and truly paid off now, and the dreams of not only Satnam but also millions of basketball fans in India have come true today.

Although not Indian-born, Sim Bhullar declared himself at the NBA Draft in 2014 but went undrafted. Despite that, though, he represented the Sacramento Kings in the 2014 NBA Summer League.

Responding to the fantastic news, former Indian basketball coach Scott Flemming also tweeted his congratulatory wishes, saying that Satnam would learn a great deal at Dallas. Amidst the crisis that Indian basketball currently finds itself in, Flemming welcomed the positive news for the sport in the country.
