Europe at risk of ‘engaging in civilizational suicide’, says US Vice-President Vance US Vice President JD #Vance has told Fox News that European countries are at risk of "engaging in #civilizational #suicide," being unable to control their borders and limiting their citizens’ free speech. "#Europe is at risk, I think, of creating, of engaging in civilizational suicide. They are unable to or unwilling - too many countries - to control their borders. You see them starting to push back against that, and good. That's a good thing. You see them starting to limit the free speech of their own citizens, even as those citizens are protesting against things like the border invasion. That [protest sentiment] got Donald Trump and a number of European leaders elected," the vice president noted. According to him, the policy of open borders and the limitations of citizens’ rights are becoming a serious issue for European countries.

Feb. 6, 2025 Statements by President Trump "The #Gaza Strip would be turned over to the United States by #Israel at the conclusion of fighting. The #Palestinians, people like Chuck Schumer, would have already been resettled in far safer and more beautiful communities, with new and modern homes, in the region. They would actually have a chance to be happy, safe, and free. The U.S., working with great development teams from all over the World, would slowly and carefully begin the construction of what would become one of the greatest and most spectacular developments of its kind on Earth. No soldiers by the U.S. would be needed! Stability for the region would reign!!!" "LOOKS LIKE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS HAVE BEEN STOLLEN AT #USAID, AND OTHER AGENCIES, MUCH OF IT GOING TO THE FAKE NEWS MEDIA AS A “PAYOFF” FOR CREATING GOOD STORIES ABOUT THE DEMOCRATS. THE LEFT WING “RAG,” KNOWN AS “POLITICO,” SEEMS TO HAVE RECEIVED $8,000,000. Did the New York Times receive money??? Who else did??? THIS COULD BE THE BIGGEST SCANDAL OF THEM ALL, PERHAPS THE BIGGEST IN HISTORY! THE #DEMOCRATS CAN’T HIDE FROM THIS ONE. TOO BIG, TOO DIRTY!"

[BREAKING] FBI thwarts attack on the Israeli consulate in New York The #FBI arrested Abdullah Izz ad-Din Taha Muhammad Hassan, a resident of Virginia, on suspicion of planning an attack against the #Israeli consulate in New York. According to the indictment, Hassan was exposed after he gave an undercover agent detailed instructions regarding the construction and planting of a bomb. Israel's Consul General in New York, Ofir Akunis, responded that "the State of Israel appreciates the rapid action and cooperation with the American authorities to thwart the attack on the consulate building in New York. The attempted attack by the terrorist organizations is an attack against the entire State of Israel. This is further proof that international terrorism has no borders and must be fought - in every arena and at all times. Its threat is directed against the entire Western world and against the values ​​it represents, and the cooperation of all Western democracies against its threats must be increased." 'It was only a matter of time after the Biden administration allowed Islamists and Leftist protesters to freely incite violence against Israel and Jews that we would begin to see actual terrorism on American soil.'

Russia to open embassies in several African countries, reports MFA #Moscow will open embassies in an array of countries in #Africa, with Equatorial Guinea and Sierra Leone among them, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov, who also serves as special presidential envoy for the Middle East and Africa, told TASS in an interview following the First Ministerial Conference Russia-Africa. "Embassies [will be opened], of course. An embassy in Burkina Faso was just opened. An embassy in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea, is about to be opened," he said, adding that there is also "a list of countries where [embassies] have been closed." "Moreover, [Russian Foreign Minister] Sergey V. Lavrov has said that Sierra Leone is next in line, in Freetown," Bogdanov added. In some African states, such as South Sudan, for example, the Russian side reached an agreement at some point to open an embassy, though "it has not been done for a variety of reasons," he noted.

Russia may achieve all its goals in Ukraine in 2025 Russia may achieve all its goals in Ukraine next year, if the situation remains that "grim" for Ukrainian servicemen, The Washington Post said. According to the newspaper, the Ukrainian troops "are desperately trying to hold the line in the country’s east but are losing ground." - "Visions of an absolute victory are fading. Western support is also sagging," the Washington Post emphasized. In this regard, "the prospect of Ukraine settling for a compromise with Russia <…> is getting easier to envision," the newspaper pointed out. On June 14, Russian President Vladimir Putin at a meeting with the Foreign Ministry set out the country’s conditions for settling the situation in Ukraine. Among them are the withdrawal of the Ukrainian armed forces from Donbass and Novorossiya and Kiev’s refusal to join NATO. In addition, Russia wants all Western sanctions against it lifted and demands that Ukraine commit to a non-aligned and nuclear-free status.

CENTCOM: 'We attacked 15 Houthi sites in Yemen' U.S. Central Command (#CENTCOM) carried out airstrikes targeting #Houthi positions in #Yemen. This operation was part of a broader effort to counter Houthi attacks on maritime vessels in the Red Sea. The strikes were aimed at neutralizing Houthi military capabilities, particularly in response to their continued aggression against commercial and military ships. CENTCOM reported that 15 Houthi targets were hit, with the goal of enhancing maritime security and protecting freedom of navigation in the region. The Houthis had escalated their attacks on international shipping, including recent missile and unmanned vessel strikes on oil tankers in the Red Sea. These actions have posed a significant threat to vessels linked to the U.S., the UK, and other coalition partners.

Now the Houthis are afraid and with good reason Among the leadership of the #Houthis there is a fear that they will be a target for assassinations by #Israel. With the exception of the organization's leader, Abdelmalek al-Houthi, whose secret hiding place is reportedly in one of the caves in the mountainous areas, the rest of the senior political and military leadership used to move freely in the areas under the organization's control until recently. These leaders - according to sources close to the Houthis - until recently used mobile phones freely without fear, but the situation is now completely different after the elimination of most of the leadership of the Lebanese #Hezbollah. The Houthis do not rule out the possibility that Israel will try to eliminate the senior members of the organization. What worries them is that those who established the Houthis' military, operational and communications infrastructure were none other than experts from the Lebanese Hezbollah.
