Frantic manhunt for missing Israeli teens ends with discovery of three bodies in West Bank

Security officials say the Israeli military has discovered the bodies of three Israeli teenagers who were kidnapped in the West Bank earlier this month.

They say the bodies were found Monday near the village of Halhul, near the location where the teens disappeared on June 12.

The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity in exchange for releasing the information ahead of a formal announcement.

Married men are the butt of all jokes these days. Whenever a couple of guys get together, they talk about how much happier they were before they got married. Every time a guy proposes to his girlfriend, his friends treat it like the end of the world. If marriage is such a terrible thing for the male species, why then men even get married. There must be some reasons that men marry women even in this day and age.

We can give you not one but many reasons why men marry. It may seem conventional, but men are still taking the plunge. Everyone gets married eventually as there is a need to settle down somewhere. But there are also some benefits of getting married. A modern day marriage is way above falling in love and settling down. It is often a coldly calculated decision that both men and women take. In spite of ridiculing marriage, men still take their vows at the altar. So many men would not be getting married unless there was something to it. Here are some of the reasons why men still marry women when marriage is not a social compulsion.

19-year-old wife of armed robbery suspect in trouble for exposing husband (PICTURED)

Kate who resides on 39, Unity Street, Egan area of Igando, Lagos disclosed that her life took a tumble recently, when her husband, Monday, was taken into custody in connection with a robbery gang that snatched a Toyota Camry 2000 model, belonging to a pastor, Mr. Lawal.

While trying to play a good samaritan by exposing an armed robber, little did she know she was also exposing her husband.

Read her interview with Punch, below “That day, I was at home when Michael -one of Monday’s customers and acquaintances – came in and gave a small bag to my husband to keep for him. Monday did not even open the bag, he just collected it and dropped it somewhere. But later, I overheard Michael speaking on the phone. I heard him saying they had snatched a car and that the owner was a pastor. I didn’t know who he was speaking with over the phone but I heard him say ‘I have kept the document with the boy who does embroidery for me.’

The escaped Chibok girl revealed to Leadership how the sects divided them(Chibok girls) into three different camps on their arrival at the forest.

She said: “When we got to the Sambisa forests they decided to divide us into three groups and each group was asked to go to different direction of the forest”.

We were taken to the camp from where we were able to escape. We never saw the other girls in the other two camps till we managed to run back home,” she told Leadership.

Contrary to earlier reports, the United States of America declared on Friday, 27 June, 2014, that it does not know the where-about of the 219 schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram in Chibok, Borno State, northeastern Nigeria.
It could be recalled that no fewer 276 students of Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State were abducted by members of Boko Haram on 14 April, 2014. Though some of the kidnapped schoolgirls reportedly managed to escape the insurgents after their abduction, 219 of them are still being held by the Islamists terror group.

‘Being Ogboni leader has made me a good disciple of Jesus Christ,’ he claims.

For many Christians, Ogboni society is not only regarded as a secret cult but also treated as an abomination that must not be identified with. A senior member of the Christendom however feels otherwise and in fact made a shocking revelation that will leave many gasping for breath.

For over four decades, 65-year-old Pastor Solomon Oladimeji has been a shepherd in the vineyard. Apart from being the founder of Cherubim and Seraphim Church, Orisun-Ayo, with branches at Alapere, Ketu, and Odogunyan in Ikorodu area of Lagos, Prophet Oladimeji reveals that he is also a top member of the Ogboni fraternity. He belongs to Saala Ogboni Fellowship of Nigeria (SOFN) – within the fraternity – where he occupies the position of Oluwo and the third in command to the overall head of the fraternity.

Vigilante groups went looking for suspected militants after the attack on Giwa Barracks, March 14

More and more people in the three troubled North-eastern states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe are ordering what passes for bulletproof clothing, buying homemade muskets and organising ragtag militias, Wall Street Journal reports.

Nigeria may soon witness vigilante groups of “new generation”. They will be different from the ‘Civilian JTF’ (Volunteer Vigilance Youths’ Group). The new groups will be better equipped, as the residents are gathering weapons to defend their territories from terrorists.

New York’s Council on Foreign Relations estimates that over 14,000 people lost their lives in three years due to Boko Haram insurgency. All in all, the unrest lasts since 2009.

Although the leadership of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has denied knowledge of any feud between South-West monarchs and the party’s national leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, there are strong ...indications that the opposition party is reaching out to the traditional rulers to pacify them over their grievances against Tinubu.

The APC’s move was allegedly informed by its realisation that the monarchs played a key factor in the party’s loss at the just-concluded governorship election in Ekiti State, where the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP candidate, Mr. Ayo Fayose, defeated the incumbent governor and APC candidate, Dr. Fayemi Kayode.

The traditional rulers had allegedly vowed to teach Tinubu a political lesson for declaring that only three monarchs in Yorubaland are upright, describing others as “useless”.

15 days after they give advance warning of plans to strike, the dreaded Boko Haram terrorists on Sunday in a commando style invaded four villages near Chibok, killing many people and setting churches ablaze.

A member of a local vigilante, who declined to be named, told the Hausa service of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) that the terrorists simultaneously struck Kautikari, Nasarawa, Gwaradina and Kwadake villages in the Chibok community.

SAD: Young Nigerian Girl Narrates how She got Divorced at 14!

Beaten: Maimuna Abdullahi, left, is pictured recently at the school in Nigeria which has taken her in after her ordeal
DailyMail just published this heartbreaking report on their website:
Maimuna Abdullahi was sold into marriage by her parents for £120 and abused by her new husband, who locked her away and forced hard labour on her.
When she ran home she was beaten, first by her father, then her husband, and was summarily divorced by her husband for daring to flee - and she is still just 14 years old. She is one of thousands in Nigeria with similar stories - and, shockingly, her husband blames his beaten former bride for her ordeal, saying she was disobedient and over-educated.

Born in Yugoslavia from Albanian origin, the Muslim footballer plays as a midfielder for Bayern Munich in the German Bundesliga. Since his breakthrough into Basel’s first team, the left-footed midfielder has drawn widespread praise for his speed, both on and off the ball.

The Nigerian ace winger who has made impressive outing in the 2014 world cup is among the Muslim players currently in Brazil 2014 world cup.

Indeed, Ramadan is a great chance for every Muslim to draw himself closer to Allah by a sincere repent (tawbah) and performing as many good deeds as he can. This also applies to Muslim families.

Helping you, and each Muslim family, to get the most benefit of Ramadan we can offer the following schedule:

First of all, your family members should have a good deal of knowledge on Ramadan and its merits and blessings so as to have the motivation to gain these benefits. You can do so by encouraging them to read on Ramadan either in books or on sites such as ours. You can, also, hold a kind of family discussion on that topic, for which you should be pre-prepared with all the knowledge they may require.

Ramadan, the ninth month in the Islamic calendar, begins on Sunday, and Muslims around the world begin fasting for a month from sunrise until sunset.

During Ramadan, many Muslims give money or volunteer for particular causes, attend special services or night prayers at the mosque, or set themselves the challenge of reading the entire Qu'ran.

The month will end 29 to 30 days later with the celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr, when the first crescent of the new moon is sighted, marking the start of the next lunar month.

Adlah bint Abdullah bin Abdel Aziz Al Saoud, is a modern women, who calls for the freedom of women and who believes that “Al Niqab” is more of a tradition, while the scarf is more of what Islam calls for!

Adlah sat in for an interview with the French newspaper “Le Figaro” and shared her views about marriage, Hijab, work for women and social media.

Adlah is an active woman in Saudi Arabia. She participates in welcoming foreign delegations, she attends plays and events, she poses for photos with young women and men.

Its no news that D’banj dated the beautiful Jennifer Obayuwana, daughter of the Founder and Managing Director of Polo Luxury – John Obayuwana – few years back and its definitely no news that the couple’s relationship mysteriously went sideways. Well here is why, though not entirely surprising…

A Russian man who tried to rob a hair salon ended up as the victim when the female shop owner overpowered him, tied him up naked and then used him as a sex slave for three days.

Viktor Jasinski, 32, admitted to police that he had gone to the salon in Meshchovsk, Russia, with the intention of robbing it.

But the tables were turned dramatically when he found himself overcome by owner Olga Zajac, 28, who happened to be a black belt in karate.

Luiz Suarez returned to his native home of Uruguay yesterday June 27th to a hero’s welcome after being booted out of the World Cup and banned from all football for four-months for biting Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini. Not only were hundreds of fans at Montevideo airport to welcome him, waving banners of support, but the president of Uruguay, Jose Mujica, was also at the airport.

Ms Farrell decided in 2009 that she wanted to change the colour of her eyes and so she began researching surgical options.
Despite her family’s horror, she travelled to Panama to have a procedure which involved implanting coloured discs – like a contact lenses – into her eyes.
Ms Farrell told Channel 5’s Botched Up Bodies: ‘I was so determined to get the surgery nothing rang alarm bells for me – nothing obvious.’

A 28-year-old fried keow teow seller slashed and seriously wounded his 32-year-old wife and 19-year-old stall helper with a parang after discovering the duo without clothes in the same room in his rented house. The incident occurred at about 2am Wednesday, at a house rented by the suspect in Kampung Langgar near here.

France coach, Didier Deschamps does not believe his side will have an easy time when they meet Nigeria in the round of 16 at the 2014 FIFA World Cup finals in Brazil.

The Super Eagles go head-to-head against Les Blues on Monday with bookmakers seemingly unanimous that the French would be too strong for the African champions.

Deschamps, a World Cup winner in 1998, however does not share that opinion and does not think a win over the Super Eagles will be an easy one.

Majestic! The Queen of England has worn the same shoes for 50 years(Photos)

Imagine wearing the same shoes for 50 years!! Yes,the 88 year old Queen of England does.. the classic black shoe costs about £1,000 and she's been rocking the same pair for 50 years years and re-heeling them when they wear out. She initially started out with a brown pair in 1969,but switched to black and hasn't worn any other shoe since then..It takes a team of four to produce the shoes..

That says a lot about her personality as a faithful woman,despite most of the scandals and divorce which rocks royal families,she has been married since 1947 to Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh .He is the longest-serving, oldest-ever spouse of a reigning British monarch, and the longest-lived male member of the British royal family.

Can you rock one shoe for 10 years....

Here are ten attractive traits that every man keeps in mind when deciding if the woman (ie. you) sitting across the dinner table from him at that first date is girlfriend material.

1. Confidence
Take it from the guys, nothing is sexier than a woman who’s comfortable in her own skin. If you’re guilty of meekly asking lines like: “Does this skirt make my thighs look fat?” … stop asking. If you’re constantly needing his reassurance that you’re beautiful, he may start asking questions himself.

2. Intelligence
Acting like a bimbo loses it’s novelty to men after high school. What men want in a girlfriend is a woman who can stand as his equal. So be the smart, savvy woman you are! To him, it’s a total turn-on.

The militant Islamist sect, Boko Haram, gives out abducted young girls and women to its members as wives, the 2014 Trafficking in Persons Report, has stated.
It said that through forced marriages, the women and girls are subjected to séx slavery, domestic servitude and forced labour.
“International observers had reported in 2013 that the terrorist group, Boko Haram, recruited and used child soldiers as young as 12-years-old, as well as abducted women and girls some of whom were subjected to domestic servitude, forced labour, and sex slavery through forced marriages to its militants,” a part of the report read.

The report, which covered 2013, noted that the sect recruited children as foot soldiers, was obtained from the United States Department of State on Tuesday. The report was posted on www.state.gov on June 20.

It observed that the Federal Government had yet to fully comply with the minimum standards for the elimination of human trafficking.

A crowd in the front of the auditorium of Holy Family Happy Family Ministry, Majidun

Yesterday, we brought the story of one Mrs Rosemary Chukwu who strangled and hid her neighbour's son in a suit case....new revelations have emerged!
Rosemary Chukwu had become a sort of nuisance to her neighbors.
Many times, they had complained about her praying habit.
“She would shout and scream and make noise while praying. She makes everybody uncomfortable. That is what everybody knows about her here. This is why we are still in shock about what she did,” said one of her neighbours at 33, Omo Ologede area in Majidun, Lagos.

But what Chukwu is currently embroiled in is simply shocking for the neighbours.

When Punch visited Omo Ologede on Wednesday, it was noticed that Chukwu and parents of the kidnapped child were co-tenants.
Another neighbour in the same compound, Biola Odunsin, narrated how he, in conjunction with other neighbours, caught Chukwu.

1. Nostalgia

If you want to return to the good ol’ days, wear some jellies and listen to a mixed tape. Don’t use nostalgia as a reason to run back into the arms of your banished boo. Though you never believe it when you’re suffering, there will be others. Lots of others.

2. They’re Good in Bed

Sure, you had some good times with your former lover. But remember: your ex had time to get familiar with your body and kinks. You two might not have had earthquakin’ romps in the beginning, but you’ll probably only (conveniently) recollect the nights of burning passion that came later. Someone else can get you there—but these things don’t always happen overnight.

Iker Casillas

Age: 33

National team: Spain

First World Cup appearance: Japan/Korea 2002 (TOTAL 4)

International appearances: 156 (0 goals)

Ah, Iker. The babyfaced goalkeeper, instantly recognizable by his short-sleeves-and-gloves combo, was untouchable as Spain's number 1 for the bulk of his career. But he's suffered a torrid couple of seasons of late, dropped by consecutive club managers at Real Madrid. His national team coach, Vincent del Bosque kept faith for the first two of the team's Group B matches but wasn't rewarded when his goalie let in seven, heralding a humiliating exit for the World Cup holders. Almost certain to retire following the team's exit, it is a sad end to one of the most storied international careers of all time.

Clint Dempsey

Age: 31

National team: USA

First World Cup appearance: Germany 2006 (TOTAL 3)

International appearances: 106 (38 goals)

This indomitable playmaker has been the rock upon which Team USA has been founded ever since he pulled on the national team jersey almost a decade ago. Rookie of the Year back in his early days in the MLS, he then forged a career in the English Premier League before returning to the U.S. and the Seattle Sounders for what will doubtlessly be his swansong season. Before bowing out of international football, this never-say-die competitor will be hoping to advance through the knock-out phase of the competition, dragging his teammates there by the scruff of their necks if need be.

They exchanged pleasantries with each other before getting on the pitch for the nail-biting encounter at Port Allegre but Argentina’s Lionel Messi and Nigeria’s safe hands, Vincent Enyeama went all out against each other as soon as the match got underway.

Ahmed Musa’s performance in World Cup match is the stuff of legends but Vincent Enyeama’s skill and resilience proved the difference against an Argentine team which boasts of the best scoring pair of legs the world can presently offer.

A grandmother, her son and son-in-law have been arrested and taken to court over the rape of a teenage girl in Lagos.

27-year old Uchechukwu Nwambie is said to have been encouraged by his mother, Beatrice, 64, to rape the 14-year-old girl who was in her custody.

The incident occurred in the FESTAC area of the state where the 3 suspects, who were tried before a Federal High Court, reside.

The photo above just proves people were taking selfies as far back as the 1920s, so the millennium kids wouldn’t think they started the trend which has become a world wide phenomenon. Lol
