Israel's breaking bad in USA

There have been social media rumours that Trump decided to wage this unprovoked and illegal war against Iran because of the need to divert the national attention away from the Epstein Files. Specifically, one social media rumour I came across was that Netanyahu threatened Trump to wage the war against Iran or else he would release all the compromising videos that Epstein made of him since Epstein was a Mossad agent. While that rumour sure is a strong conspiracy theory, it caught my attention for a different reason: the use of fear. The Jewish Zionists of Israel have this innate habit of whining about being the victim in every situation. And they brought their successful cry baby propaganda to the West specifically after the 1967 war because that is when the notorious US-Israel alliance started to form. Through the ensuing decades, Israelis have convinced a vast majority of the American people that they were the victims. Through a combination of religious and political myths such as tha...

Iranian strikes damage at least 17 US sites across Middle East: report

At least 17 United States military, diplomatic and air defence sites across the Middle East have been damaged by Iranian drone and missile strikes since the start of the conflict in the region, a New York Times analysis found on Wednesday. The report said Iran responded to the US-Israeli assaults by targeting American installations across the region, hitting embassies, killing US soldiers, and damaging military bases and air defence infrastructure.  The New York Times identified at least 17 damaged US sites, several of which were struck more than once since the conflict began, based on high-resolution commercial satellite imagery, verified social media videos, and statements by US officials and Iranian state media.

Govt to absorb future fuel price hikes amid Middle East crisis: Ali Pervaiz Malik

Petroleum Minister Ali Pervaiz Malik asserted on Tuesday that there would be no further increases in petroleum prices as the government has resolved to absorb the impact of any future increase in the international market due to the Mideast conflict. Last week, the government announced an increase of Rs55 per litre in petrol and diesel prices following a surge in petroleum costs amid the ongoing Middle East crisis. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has severely disrupted supply lines across the region, affecting fuel availability and prices globally. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Monday announced austerity measures, acknowledging that petrol prices were expected to rise internationally in the coming days. However, the premier assured the public that the government would strive to shield them from the full burden of these increases.

SC adopts four-day work week under austerity plan

In line with the government-announced austerity measures due to disruption in the supply of petroleum products, the Supreme Court of Pakistan also announced similar measures on Tuesday, adopting a four-day working week from Monday to Thursday. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif a day earlier announced a number of steps as part of a broader austerity plan to manage the situation arising from the fuel crunch linked to the ongoing Middle East crisis following attacks by the United States and Israel on Iran. During a meeting attended by representatives of the federal and provincial governments, the premier announced a four-day work week and a work-from-home policy as part of wide-ranging austerity measures. According to a statement issued by the Supreme Court, the National Judicial Policy Making Committee (NJPMC) met under the chairmanship of Chief Justice of Pakistan Yahya Afridi during an emergent virtual meeting. The meeting, attended by the Federal Shariat Court chief justice, the ...

France to deploy nearly a dozen warships, mulls Hormuz mission, Macron says

France is sending about a dozen naval vessels, including its aircraft carrier strike group, to the Mediterranean, Red Sea, and potentially the Strait of Hormuz, as part of defensive support for allies threatened by the Middle East conflict. Speaking in Cyprus before visiting the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier, which arrived this weekend in the eastern Mediterranean, President Emmanuel Macron sought to reassure his Cypriot counterpart after drones were intercepted approaching the island last week. "When Cyprus is attacked, then Europe is attacked," Macron said after meeting President Nikos Christodoulides and Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in Paphos. European states have largely been sidelined as the conflict between the United States, Israel, and Iran has escalated, affecting Gulf Arab states and drawing Lebanon into the line of fire after Hezbollah attacked Israel. With Middle Eastern shipping lanes disrupted and oil prices surging above $100 a barrel, European...
