  • Muslim group sues to block Trump terrorism report

    Organization says mixing immigration and terrorism harms MuslimsTwo anti-Trump organizations filed a lawsuit Monday arguing that a government report earlier this year linking immigrants to most of the country’s terrorism cases since 2001 is so misleading that it violates federal law. The request seeks to recruit federal judges to police the accuracy of the administration, in what — if it’s successful — could become a model for anti-Trump groups to push back on a president they see as having a tenuous connection to the truth. The January report concluded that 73 percent of the 549 people convicted of international terrorism...

    A 27-year-old Qatari camel herder has been found guilty on two attempted rape charges with his victim being left "frozen with fear" during the attacks. Nasser Al-Gherainiq was convicted at Southwark Crown Court following an assault that took place at a private medical facility connected to Royal Brompton Hospital in south-west London. The defendant, who had travelled to Britain for specialist heart treatment, attacked a woman by forcing her into a toilet cubicle at the medical centre. Al-Gherainiq joins a long list of foreign offenders in UK prisons, now representing nearly one-in-eight (12 per cent) prisoners in our overcrowded jails....

    Defense Minister Israel Katz briefed the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, chaired by MK Yuli Edelstein, at the Kirya military headquarters, detailing Israel’s pre-emptive actions during the 12-day “Am K’Lavie” war against Iran, which ended with a ceasefire on June 24. Katz revealed that Iran had planned a surprise attack, stating, “The Iranians planned to strike first and launch between 400 to 500 missiles in the opening strike. If we hadn’t acted first, it would have been much harder for us.” ... “We met 100% of the operational objectives in Iran, and the Americans helped a lot in the end,”...
  • Globalizing the intifada is becoming a litmus test issue in Democratic primaries

    As the Democratic Party continues to shift further to the Left, the party has been captured by the loudest of its activist class, which means that candidates must increasingly pander to the “pro-Palestinian” movement and its support of a global intifada. This process is playing out in New York City, where Democrats will nominate their candidate for mayor on Tuesday night. The top candidate is disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, but the progressive wing of the party has lined up behind state Rep. Zohran Mamdani. Under the monstrosity of New York’s ranked choice voting, Mamdani now has a four-point lead...

    New York needs a wakeup call. Desperately. The AP reports that democrats are fretting about Zohran Mamdani's rise in the mayoral race. Many progressives cheered the emergence of the young and charismatic Mamdani, whose candidacy caught on with viral campaign videos and a focus on the cost of living. But the party’s more pragmatic wing cast the outcome as a serious setback in their quest to broaden Democrats’ appeal and move past the more controversial policies that alienated would-be voters in recent elections. And it's not just Republicans Lawrence Summers, the Treasury Secretary under former Democratic President Barack Obama, aired...

    France's military actively intercepted Iranian drones targeting Israel in the days leading up to this week’s ceasefire, Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu confirmed Wednesday evening. Speaking before Parliament during a debate on the Middle East, Lecornu said the French army engaged in defensive operations as Iran launched a large-scale assault on Israel."I can confirm that the French army intercepted fewer than 10 drones over the last few days, during Iran's military operations against Israelhttps://www.jfeed.com/news-israel/iran-israel-conflict-analysis, either through ground-to-air systems or using our Rafale fighter jets," Lecornu stated

    In a devastating IED attack in Khan Yunis, Gaza, seven IDF combat engineers were killed when terrorists exploited vulnerabilities in Israel’s Puma armored vehicle. The incident exposes critical flaws in the APC’s defenses, raising urgent questions about battlefield preparedness as asymmetric warfare escalate.... The attack’s ease is infuriating. IEDs, crafted from scavenged explosives and triggered by cell phones or timers, are stealthy and simple to attach, likely slapped onto the Puma’s underbelly or flank, its weakest armored points, during a crowd or brief halt. The Puma’s design lacks add-on defenses like slat ("cage") armor, leaving it vulnerable to shaped charges...

    French police have detained 12 suspects after 145 people reported being pricked with syringes during the country’s annual street music festival, officials said on Sunday. Millions of people took to the streets across France on Saturday evening for the Fête de la Musique, with authorities reporting “unprecedented crowds” in Paris. Before the party, posts on social media had called for women to be targeted during the festivities. The interior ministry said 145 victims across the country had reported being stabbed with needles. Paris police reported 13 cases in the capital. Officials did not say if these were cases of so-called...

    Regime change in Iran is "unacceptable" and the assassination of the country's Supreme Leader would "open the Pandora's box", the Kremlin has said. In a rare interview with a foreign media organisation, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Sky News that Russia would react "very negatively" if Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed. The comments came as US President Donald Trump said he will decide within two weeks whether America will join Israel's military campaign against Tehran, after earlier speculating on social media about killing the Iranian leader. "The situation is extremely tense and is dangerous not only for the region but...

    A year and a half ago I moved my family from California, where I had spent my entire adult life, to Texas. We left for the same reason as hundreds of thousands of other people in recent years: the state that should be paradise on earth had become, thanks to Democrat mismanagement – intentional, some might say – a Third World cesspit where a middle-class lifestyle was affordable only for the wealthy. My wife and I chose Texas for a variety of reasons; we knew it wasn’t paradise either, but it was definitely higher ground. Now I’m beginning to wonder...

    Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov warned on Wednesday that direct U.S. military assistance to Israel could radically destabilise the situation in the Middle East, where an air war between Iran and Israel has raged for six days. In separate comments, the head of Russia's SVR foreign intelligence service, Sergei Naryshkin, was quoted as saying that the situation between Iran and Israel was now critical. Ryabkov warned the U.S. against direct military assistance to Israel or even considering such "speculative options," according to Russia's Interfax news agency.

  • 15-ton mega bomb needed to destroy Iran’s last nuclear facility – here’s why Israel can’t deliver it

    NY Post ^ | 6/17/2025 | Michael Kaplan
    Israel needs a 15-ton ‘bunker buster’ bomb to destroy the last untouched nuclear facility in Iran, but only the US has one. Such a powerful weapon – the largest non-nuclear bomb in the US arsenal – is needed because the target, Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant, is built some 300 feet inside a mountain near the city of Qom, two hours south of Tehran. The heavyweight explosive is known as a GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator and was designed by Boeing for the United States Air Force. Its huge weight means it can only be delivered with a B-2 Spirit stealth bomber...

    President says U.S. knows location of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. President Trump called on Iran to surrender without conditions to bring an end to its dayslong conflict with Israel, saying the U.S. knew the location of the country’s leader but was choosing not to take any action. “He is an easy target, but is safe there—We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now.” Trump made the comments as the U.S. expanded its military footprint in the region where the war between Israel and Iran entered a fifth day. The president left a...

    *** Rival factions of the MAGA movement are now openly feuding in an increasingly nasty civil war, and questioning whether the president will make what they regard as the right move in the Middle East. Trump himself stunningly split with one of his own close advisers on Tuesday, dismissing Congressional testimony from Director of National Security Tulsi Gabbard. In March, Gabbard stated that the intelligence community had assessed Iran was not building a nuclear weapon. 'The IC continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon, and Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that...

    Longstanding efforts by the legacy media and the political establishment to downplay the issue of ethnicity in the child rape grooming gang scandal have been overturned by a public inquiry from Baroness Casey of Blackstock, which found a direct tie between Pakistani men and the abuse of mostly young working class white girls. A report from Dame Louise Casey has explicitly linked the grooming gang scourge to Pakistani-heritage men, whose crimes were “institutionally ignored for fear of racism”. The review also called for police in England to improve the collection of ethnicity data in child sexual exploitation cases. Unveiling the...

    Tehran has asked Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Oman to press U.S. President Donald Trump to use his influence on Israel to agree to an immediate ceasefire with Iran in return for Tehran's flexibility in nuclear negotiations, two Iranian and three regional sources told Reuters on Monday. Gulf leaders and their top diplomats worked the phones all weekend, speaking to each other, to Tehran, Washington and beyond in an effort to avoid a widening of the conflict as longstanding enemies Israel and Iran intensified their attacks in their biggest ever confrontation. Iran is willing to be flexible in the nuclear talks...

    DUBAI—Iran has been urgently signaling that it seeks an end to hostilities and resumption of talks over its nuclear programs, sending messages to Israel and the U.S. via Arab intermediaries, Middle Eastern and European officials said. In the midst of a ferocious Israeli air campaign, Tehran has told Arab officials they would be open to return to the negotiating table as long as the U.S. doesn’t join the attack, the officials said. They also passed messages to Israel saying it is in the interest of both sides to keep the violence contained. But with Israeli warplanes able to fly freely...

    The leader of the British government on Sunday announced plans to put authorities with the nation’s top organized crime agency on the so called “grooming gangs scandal,” in which more than 1,000 children were sexually abused over a 16-year period, according to multiple media reports. An inquiry in 2014 found that 1,400 children, primarily white girls from working-class families, in Northern England were subjected to sexual exploitation between 1997 and 2013, Reuters reported. In the inquiry, officials reported that most of the perpetrators were of Pakistani heritage.
