Dec 26, 2025 - BREAKING: Trump announces bombing of ISIS in Nigeria "Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries! I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was. The Department of War executed numerous perfect strikes, as only the United States is capable of doing. Under my leadership, our Country will not allow Radical Islamic Terrorism to prosper. May God Bless our Military, and MERRY CHRISTMAS to all, including the dead Terrorists, of which there will be many more if their slaughter of Christians continues." DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Bennett meets 15 ambassadors, urges countries to protect Jews from ‘global tsunami of antisemitism’ Following the deadly terror shooting attack on a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney, former prime minister Naftali Bennett — a leading challenger to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in elections next year — tells 15 foreign ambassadors that “Jews around the world are in clear and immediate danger,” according to his office. “We are witnessing a global tsunami of antisemitism,” says Bennett. “Every country has an obligation to protect its Jewish citizens. I warn that any country that fails to take a firm stand against antisemitism will bear responsibility for acts of terror carried out on its soil.” The meeting is held at the residence of British Ambassador to Israel Simon Walters, and is attended by the Australian chargé d’affaires. The meeting is also attended by the ambassadors of the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Canada, Switzerland, Sweden, India, Poland, Japan, Norway, Ukraine, Greece and Belgium, as well as the Italian deputy ambassador.

FBI Says Seized Oil Tanker Near Venezuela Was Supporting Terrorist Groups #FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed that the bureau, the Department of Homeland Security (#DHS), and other agencies were involved in the seizure of an oil tanker off the coast of #Venezuela on Dec. 10, stating that it was connected to terrorist organizations.

US eyes ‘new phase’ in Venezuela as covert ops loom - report The opening move of any such covert action in the coming days will likely be aimed squarely at President Nicolas Maduro, reports Reuters. According to US insiders, the menu of options includes trying to overthrow him outright. ⛓️ As for timelines and specifics, these are being locked down. Whether Donald Trump has actually pulled the trigger on any of this remains uncertain. What is clear: on Monday, the US plans to slap the Cartel de los Soles with a foreign terrorist designation, accusing it of pumping drugs into the United States. Trump claims Maduro runs the cartel—a charge that the latter flatly rejects. 🗣 US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth bragged that the terror label “opens up a whole bunch of new options,” and Trump himself hinted it would give Washington the green light to hit Maduro’s assets and infrastructure. At the same time, he keeps dangling the possibility of “talks.” Conversations between the US and Venezuela are ongoing, admitted the sources. Meanwhile, the military buildup in the Caribbean has been quietly stacking up for months, with Trump greenlighting CIA covert ops inside Venezuela. 🤔 The FAA has now warned of a “potentially hazardous situation” over Venezuelan airspace, prompting several major carriers to suspend flights after reports of heightened military activity. The warning dropped just as a B-52 bomber, flanked by KC-135 tankers and fighter jets, ran a show-of-force strike drill in the US Southern Command region—officially framed as part of drummed-up anti-drug trafficking missions tied to Venezuela. Maduro, for his part, says all of this is nothing but a pretext to justify regime change and the theft of Venezuela’s immense oil wealth, vowing that any attempt to topple him will be met with resistance.

Mapping potential military targets in Venezuela Yesterday, the U.S. announced Operation 'Southern Spear' to "remove narco-terrorists from our hemisphere." With the Ford carrier strike group now on station in SOUTHCOM, the U.S. could launch land strikes at any time. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth compares the upcoming "Operation Southern Spear" against Venezuela to America's past bombings of Iranian nuclear facilities and America's past month-long bombing campaign against Yemen's Ansarallah.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: President Trump ordered action — and the Department of War is delivering. Today, I’m announcing Operation 'SOUTHERN SPEAR.' Led by Joint Task Force Southern Spear and the U.S. Southern Command, this mission defends our Homeland, removes narco-terrorists from our Hemisphere, and secures our Homeland from the drugs that are killing our people. The Western Hemisphere is America’s neighborhood – and we will protect it.

The United States Africa Command (AFRICOM) has drafted plans for an intervention in #Nigeria, the primary target being #ISWAP and, to a lesser extent, other Islamist groups such as JAS and decentralized bandit groups. Plans are divided into light, medium, and heavy options. The light option is to continue to rely on the Nigerian army while providing additional military and financial support to help the government neutralize the threats. The medium option would include drone strikes and joint operations with the Nigerian army against terrorist camps and positions. This, however, would be difficult because the US lost access to airbases in Niamey and Agadez in Niger. Other regional countries might permit use of their territory, but that is unlikely; the most feasible alternative would be to operate from the AFRICOM base in Djibouti. The heavy option, and the least likely, would be to move an aircraft-carrier strike group into the Gulf of Guinea so fighter jets could carry out high-impact airstrikes against militant camps. That is constrained by carrier availability: the Gerald R. Ford is being moved to the southern Caribbean, other carriers are deployed in the Pacific or the Middle East, and some are undergoing maintenance.

France Macron gets trashed by Palestinians #Macron blessed the Israeli #hostages, but forgot to mention his ally, #Hamas, and they now curse him The President of France, Emmanuel Macron, congratulated the release of the hostages and their families. Palestinian channels criticized him for ignoring the release of the terrorists, the Palestinian prisoners... "The President of France congratulated the occupying state and the families of the Israeli prisoners who were released today by the resistance in Gaza, while ignoring the Palestinian prisoners who spent decades in the occupation's prisons under harsh conditions."

Hamas agrees to release all Israeli hostages, return bodies of those killed The Palestinian #Hamas terrorist movement has confirmed that it has conveyed its response to Donald #Trump’s plan for resolving the conflict in the #Gaza Strip to mediators, declaring its readiness to release all living Israeli hostages held in the enclave and return the bodies of those killed.
