The incoming Surgeon General wrote those four words in January 2021 — his private verdict on the WHO’s caution about vaccinating pregnant women. They became the operating metric of American public health. Five years later, they’re a prophecy his own texts fulfilled.
Story at a Glance
On January 25–26, 2021, Dr. Anthony Fauci, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, and Surgeon General nominee Vivek Murthy privately discussed a theoretical first-trimester miscarriage mechanism — “a really good point,” two of them called it — inside an evidence base one of them described as “a data free” zone. Nine days later, Fauci told the public the FDA had found “no red flags” for pregnant women.
The viral “82% miscarriage rate” being attached to these texts is statistically invalid, and I will not use it. I’ll show you exactly why — because the documentary record is damning enough without it, and because the broken number is currently doing the officials’ rebuttal work for them.
The day the WHO urged caution on vaccinating pregnant women, Murthy’s private reaction was not to weigh the evidence but to call the caution “potentially quite damaging to public confidence.” The WHO reversed within seventy-two hours. Five years later, the former CDC director is on television articulating the WHO’s original position.
Six months after these texts, the same Murthy became the architect of the federal misinformation campaign that a federal appeals court found “likely coerced” the platforms — a campaign that, per Meta’s own subpoenaed records, sought removal of true information about side effects unless packaged with reassurance.
A disclosure, before anything else: I am one of the twelve people that campaign named. A court has since found my deplatforming followed government pressure and contradicted the platform’s own policy assessment. I’ll show you that finding — and then I’ll show you why this story was never really about the twelve of us.

The very highest levels of the British government secretly exerted pressure on the BBC to censor a film about the army killing an unarmed child in 1972.
Official documents, recently discovered by the Pat Finucane Centre, also show the British Army was aware, shortly after the killing in Derry, that the boy had been killed at “point blank” range by an immensely powerful machine-gun.
However, the Ministry of Defence falsely informed an inquest into his death that he was shot from 25 meters away by a soldier who thought the boy was armed.
The case revolves around the shooting dead of 15-year-old Danny Hegarty during “Operation Motorman” in the early hours of July 31, 1972, as the British Army moved in to clear barricades and retake “no go” areas in the city that had previously been under IRA control.
A BBC Panorama reporter, Alan Hart (now deceased), had filmed people in Derry questioning the British Army’s account of how Hegarty was shot twice in the head and how his cousin accompanying him, Christopher, was wounded (another cousin, Thomas, was unscathed). … continue
As the British state seeks to destroy Palestine Action, a new trial is underway in which a judge has threatened defendants with a ‘terrorism connection’ if they explain the motives behind their activism.
It is one of three such trials in which the government has muzzled defendants, blinded jurors and banned local media coverage to guarantee convictions. … continue
The European Commission has been negotiating a secret agreement to share sensitive personal data with Israel’s police service, despite internal legal warnings that the deal could violate international law and put Palestinians at risk, according to a new report by civil rights group Statewatch published by Novara Media.
The draft agreement, originally negotiated with the European police agency Europol, would allow the exchange of biometric data, genetic information, location data, political views, and personal details.
Critical research indicates the deal has progressed despite a 2022 ruling by the Council of the EU’s Legal Service which deemed the proposal legally untenable. … continue
In two separate incidents, three Palestinians sustained live gunshot injuries in the southern West Bank governorates of Bethlehem, where soldiers shot a child, and Hebron, where colonizers shot two others, including a woman.
On Friday evening, Israeli forces invaded the town of Beit Fajjar, south of Bethlehem in the southern West Bank, shooting a young man with live ammunition.
Media sources reported that occupation soldiers stormed several neighborhoods in the town of Beit Fajjar, firing live rounds, concussion grenades, and tear gas canisters at Palestinian civilians.
Soldiers shot a Palestinian teen in the leg with live ammunition; neither the severity of his injury or his condition were known at the time of this report.
Meanwhile, on Friday evening, illegal Israeli colonizers stormed the town of Sa’ir, northeast of Hebron in the southern West Bank.
Media sources reported that armed colonizers fired live rounds at Palestinian citizens and their homes after invading the “Al-Adisa” area of Sa’ir town, resulting in the injury of two civilians. … Full article
Israeli forces have detained a Palestinian newlywed couple and raided a wedding hall amid rising tensions in the occupied West Bank and East al-Quds, where settlement activity remains at persistently high levels and extremist settlers continue to besiege homes and restrict residents’ movement.
On Friday, Israel’s so-called security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir published a post on the social media platform X after Israeli forces arrested the bride and groom for allegedly causing “traffic jams” during their wedding celebrations in the Negev region of the 1948-occupied Palestinian territories.
The newlywed couple was taken by Israeli police for interrogation while still wearing their wedding clothes.
Separately, Israeli troops raided a wedding hall at al-Eizariya town in the central part of the West Bank, and assaulted Palestinians inside.
The developments come amid a days-long Israeli settler siege of Palestinian homes in the occupied West Bank village of Qusra. … Full article

No-one has ever accused President Donald Trump of being anti-Israel. Trump has supported Israeli extremism far more than any other US president. In 2017 he moved the US embassy to Occupied Jerusalem, an extreme violation of US policy, international consensus, and international law. He strong-armed regional nations to establish “normal” relations with genocidal Israel, against the wishes of more than 95% of their populations. And he has waged relentless war on Iran on behalf of Israel, setting the stage for the current countdown to global economic catastrophe.
But all of that isn’t enough for Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, who fancies himself Trump’s boss. On August 9, Netanyahu arrogantly rejected Trump’s 15-point Gaza peace plan, thumbing his nose at Trump himself and the Board of Peace that Trump chairs.
Since the Trump-brokered “ceasefire” of October 10, 2025, Israel has killed 1,258 people in Gaza. Trump has remained silent. But now, the stakes are higher. … continue
Three Palestinians were injured on Saturday in an Israeli drone strike targeting a motorcycle in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, Anadolu reports.
The attack was the latest Israeli violation of a ceasefire agreement in effect since Oct. 10, 2025.
A medical source at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza said that three injured people were brought to the facility, one of them in serious condition, after an Israeli drone struck a motorcycle on Salah al-Din Street, east of Deir al-Balah.
Early Saturday, the Israeli army carried out large-scale demolitions in areas under its control in Rafah in southern Gaza and east of Gaza City in the north.
Witnesses told Anadolu that they heard powerful explosions caused by Israeli forces blowing up buildings and other structures.
Israeli artillery also fired several shells toward areas east of the Zeitoun neighbourhood in southeastern Gaza City. … Full article
At least eleven people, including three children and two women, have been killed and several others injured in a series of Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon, despite US-mediated face-to-face negotiations between Beirut and Tel Aviv on a plan to establish “pilot zones” in southern Lebanon.
Lebanon’s official National News Agency (NNA) reported that Israeli warplanes struck a house on the outskirts of the town of Ansar, killed seven people and wounded three others, and destroyed the home early on Saturday.
Civil defense teams from the Islamic Health Authority, the Islamic Risala Scout Association and the Lebanese Red Cross evacuated the dead and injured from the targeted areas, NNA added.
Local news outlets said three Israeli air attacks struck the outskirts of Ansar in the Nabatieh district at dawn, as well as the Ali al-Taher hill on the fringes of Nabatieh al-Fawqa.
Civil defense officials said the reported death toll was preliminary as rescue and search operations continue at the affected site.
Another strike in Deir al-Zahrani, north of Nabatieh, killed four people and wounded several others, according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry and local news media outlets.
The Israeli military asserted it struck Hezbollah infrastructure in both the Nabatieh area and Ansar, which are some 15 kilometers (9 miles) apart. … Full article
Saudi artillery fire targeted residential areas in the border district of Baqim, northwest of Saada province in northern Yemen, SABA news agency in Sanaa reported Friday evening.
On Thursday, Saudi artillery also targeted residential villages in the Ghawr al-Mashwat area of the border district of Ghamr, west of Saada province.
Saudi attacks on Yemen have continued since the targeting of Sanaa International Airport in July, alongside the ongoing blockade imposed on the Yemeni people.
In response, the Yemeni Armed Forces have continued carrying out operations against Saudi-linked targets in both Yemeni and Saudi territory. … continue
The operation was carried out in response to Saudi warplanes breaching the northeastern airspace of Saada province in northern Yemen, according to the military source.
The source, speaking to the Yemeni Saba news agency, said “the operation achieved its goal successfully.” The source further stated that the strike was “in response to the violation of Yemen’s sovereignty by Saudi warplanes and their breach of the northeastern airspace of Saada province.”
The Yemeni government asserted that the Yemeni armed forces remain fully prepared to confront “aggression” and continue to target military reinforcements of the Saudi army.
It also emphasized that its field operations and the implementation of a navigation ban on Saudi ships in the Red Sea fall within the framework of a “blockade for blockade and escalation for escalation” equation, asserting that these actions are “a legitimate response to ongoing violations until the demands of the Yemeni people are achieved.” … Full article
An incredible expose by Ronen Bergman shows how Israel invents quotes from Iranian officials in order to manufacture “evidence” that Iran is building nuclear weapons. This event took place on August 5th, when it was reported globally that Ahmad Vahidi, commander of the IRGC had admitted that Iran was developing nuclear weapons. The only problem? It wasn’t true… continue
The United States has been forced to relocate much of its naval logistics operations to a remote base in the Indian Ocean following heavy attacks by Iran on its key military installation in Bahrain, according to reports.
The reports and analyses, published on Saturday by The New York Times and Defense Security Asia, indicated that the Pentagon had moved its primary naval logistics hub to Diego Garcia, an island in the central Indian Ocean shared between the US and the United Kingdom and under British command.
The reports showed that Iran’s missile and drone strikes, which began in late February after the launch of a joint US-Israeli aggression on the country, had severely damaged the Fifth Fleet command, which hosts US Naval Support Activity Bahrain. … continue
US President Donald Trump said in a speech on 14 August that the US would soon “finish defeating Iran” and that he would declare the Strait of Hormuz to be US territory.
“After we finish defeating Iran, which is being very badly defeated – pretty soon I’ll be declaring the Hormuz Strait a territory of the United States,” Trump said during a speech at a police academy in New York state.
A senior White House official told the Wall Street Journal on Saturday that Trump was “joking” and that the president has held no formal discussions with his advisers on any such takeover.
Responding to Trump’s comments, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister for legal and international affairs, Kazem Gharibabadi, stressed that “the Strait of Hormuz has been Iranian, is Iranian, and will remain Iranian.”
“The Strait of Hormuz cannot be seized by tweet, nor by aircraft carrier, nor by issuing an order, nor by an election speech,” Gharibabadi added, emphasizing Hormuz “will only be closed and opened under Iran’s command, and as long as you do not accept the reality of defeat and cease your fanciful delusions, Iran will continue to enforce the blockade.” … Full article
MOSCOW – The Russian Foreign Ministry has requested clarification from the United States and Turkiye over information released by the US Congress regarding plans to supply weapons to Ukraine, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in a statement on Saturday.
“The Russian Foreign Ministry has requested clarifications from Washington and Ankara in connection with information released by the US Congress,” Zakharova said.
The US and Turkiye still have time to soberly assess the situation regarding plans to supply weapons to Ukraine, she said.
According to documents released by the US Congress, the arsenal is substantial, namely: 12 multiple rocket launchers and over 2,500 unguided cluster munitions for them, 47,000 cluster artillery shells of 203mm caliber, and 70 ATACMS operational-tactical missiles, Zakharova added. … continue
South Korean President Lee Jae-myung on Saturday said the country aims to end the war on the Korean Peninsula and replace the current unstable armistice regime with a peace regime.
“We will begin the path to ending the war and transforming the unstable armistice regime on the Korean Peninsula into a peace regime,” Lee said in a speech marking the 81st anniversary of Korea’s liberation from Japanese colonial rule.
The president called on both sides to abandon mutual threats and begin inter-Korean talks to end the decades-long “state of war.” … continue
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth floated on Wednesday the possibility of joint strikes on Colombian armed groups, as he welcomed the nation into a military-led counter-narcotics coalition after its conservative president took over last week.
Colombia had authorized so-called “joint military operations” to destroy what is described as “terror networks,” Hegseth told a gathering of the US-led Americas Counter-Cartel Coalition in Panama. “Yes,” he replied when asked if he had discussed with his Colombian counterpart joint strikes against armed groups such as the National Liberation Army (ELN), which the US designates as a terrorist group, and remnants of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia.
Trump’s Latin America policy expands beyond Panama
President Donald Trump’s Latin American policy has expanded dramatically beyond its early focus on the Panama Canal. More than 200 people have been killed since the launch of US military attacks on what it claimed to be drug boats last September, while a US-led commando raid in January deposed Nicolas Maduro, the president of Venezuela.
Critics say the US strikes amount to war crimes worthy of the International Criminal Court, but Hegseth blasted the organization and encouraged coalition allies attending the meeting in Panama to withdraw from it. He compared drug traffickers to al-Qaeda or ISIS terrorists.
Speaking at a hotel in Panama City, Hegseth invoked a revamped Monroe Doctrine, the 19th-century policy asserting US primacy across the Americas that critics associate with decades of US intervention. He has called it the “Donroe Doctrine”, a play on Trump’s name. “We will defend our hemisphere from external threats,” including from narco-traffickers and foreign malign influence, Hegseth said.
US pledges $1 billion in security aid
Colombian President Abelardo De La Espriella’s vows of a security crackdown have been embraced by the Trump administration, which announced plans on Friday to provide $1 billion in US security assistance to his government. During his swearing-in remarks on Friday, De La Espriella vowed to “definitively eradicate the scourge of illicit crops” and committed to also joining the Shield of the Americas program founded by Trump.
De La Espriella has blamed his predecessor, leftist Gustavo Petro, for an expansion of armed groups. Speaking alongside Hegseth at the event, Colombia’s new Defense Minister Jorge Eduardo Mora, a retired major general, said Colombia could take a critical role in combating narco-traffickers on both its Pacific and Caribbean coasts. “I think the time has arrived for the narco-terrorist cartels to confront the power and the capabilities of the entire hemisphere, led by the United States,” Mora said.
One US official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the new security partnership was expected to surpass the level of cooperation under Plan Colombia, a US-Colombia anti-narcotics initiative launched in the early 2000s. … Full article
… there are several possible angles to consider about the source of the “threat” to blow up the US plane. Given the Israeli possible connection, if that is demonstrated, it might be suggested that even if the plot was genuine and therefore “real”, rather than by Iran it might have instead been a false flag designed to bring down the plane by Israel and blame it on the Iranians. But what follows is the part that many would consider unconscionable. Trump predictably persists in blaming what took place on a “security” decision by the Secret Service but since the president controls the Secret Service that might be called a “cover story.” Why the logical route to eliminate the threat was not pursued, i.e. evacuating the plane and removing the passengers and crew to a safe distance away, is not clear. The numerous media, crewmen and assorted other travelers who had already boarded the plane were unaware of the situation and, uninformed of the threat, proceeded to settle in and get ready to depart for the UK, which apparently later took place. Some of them wondered where President Trump was as he usually wandered through the plane pre-flight selling his usual line of BS.
The not-present Trump was engaged in what I prefer to call the “Chickenwalk Crawl” but the “Daily Beast” prefers the “Presidency’s Profile in Cowardice.” He and a select few staffers including his omnipresent blonde bombshell “special aide” Natalie Harp and Secretary of War Peter Hegseth were secretly removed from the plane using an airport catering service cart that normally was used to carry food and other supplies to replenish stocks on the passenger planes. Presumably they might have been delivering a load of BigMacs to Air Force One. The transplants eventually wound up at a US Air Force C32A which was also parked at the airport. Be that as it may and the whole story is full of contrivance and spin, but it is clear that eventually the president and his friends were safe but what about the others on the plane? Even Trump’s Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent were on board Air Force One and apparently unwitting of what thereby became a “decoy” flight to attract any missiles that might be fired in the flight path. Even though Trump had changed aircraft the pretense that he was on board was retained with Air Force One keeping the original “call signal” it used despite the President’s exit – thereby deliberately becoming a decoy to anyone who might be listening in to its communications, confirming that the “target” was still on board.
A senior Trump administration official conveniently and predictably claimed to journalists on Wednesday that the “decoy” Air Force One “was protected by US fighter jets on its flight back from Ankara” though there has been no indication from the Turks controlling the airspace that that was the case. Trump is also now claiming that he was himself at “greater risk” than those on the decoy flight, a ludicrous transparently lying defense but one that is similar to so much that comes out of the White House. Perhaps he should talk to his Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who resigned 24 hours after the “decoy” story broke. She was on the “decoy” plane and might have emerged from the experience just a bit upset. Nevertheless, no matter how one spins it, it would seem that if the plan to bring down the plane had been both real and successful, all those people still on board would have died. … Full article
“When you read Jewish law in many places, you might understand that gentiles can be killed freely without any problems.” — Rabbi Yitzhak Shapira, Radio Kol Hai (July 2011)
In January 2012, Andrew Adler, the owner and publisher of a small weekly newspaper called the Atlanta Jewish Times, sparked considerable controversy when he penned an article titled ‘What Would You Do?’ in which he put forth three possible responses Israel might pursue if Iran were to acquire a nuclear weapon. The first two — pre-emptive strikes on Hezbollah and Hamas and disobeying the US Secretary of Defense to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities — failed to raise any eyebrows. Adler’s third suggestion, however, would result in his immediate resignation as editor and the subsequent sale of his newspaper:
“Three, give the go-ahead for U.S.-based Mossad agents to take out a president deemed unfriendly to Israel in order for the current vice president to take his place, and forcefully dictate that the United States policy includes its helping the Jewish state obliterate its enemies. Yes, you read “three” correctly. Order a hit on a president in order to preserve Israel’s existence. Think about it. If I have thought of this Tom Clancy-type scenario, don’t you think that this almost unfathomable idea has been discussed in Israel’s most inner circles?… You have got to believe, like I do, that all options are on the table.“
Almost immediately, the article became headline news around the country forcing major Jewish organizations like the ADL and AJC to feign indignation, and within a week the US Secret Service had launched an ‘investigation’ into the matter while a teary-eyed Adler appeared on the Atlanta Interfaith Broadcasting network’s cable TV show to disavow his column and explain that he actually held a favorable view of President Obama!
Adler’s straight-talk, shocking though it may seem to some, provides crucial insight into the mentality of God’s chosen people and the candor they often use when speaking amongst themselves. Killing a foreign or domestic head of state who presents a perceived obstacle to the preservation of fragile little Israel is not unknown to history, as any reader of Laurent Guyenot’s indispensable book The Unspoken Kennedy Truth or Ronen Bergman’s 2018 bestseller Rise and Kill First: The Secret History of Israel’s Targeted Assassinations can assure you. … continue
Throughout these various appearances, Hunter Biden has been accurately taking on Benjamin Netanyahu for the genocide in Gaza.
“If it’s anti-semitic to point out that Bibi Netanyahu is evil incarnate, then I don’t know what to say to people anymore,” Hunter Biden correctly said on the Tucker Carlson podcast, adding, “open your eyes. Open your heart for one minute.”
In his interview with Wajahat Ali referring to the genocide in Gaza, Hunter Biden said, “I will call it a genocide. I don’t know any other definition that fits when one group of people, their stated goal is the extermination of another group of people. I think it’s ridiculous that we continue to debate whether or not it’s a genocide. I think Bibi Netanyahu is evil incarnate,” adding that the Gaza genocide is “unforgivable forever and throughout time”.
While these statements are correct, it is hard not to see this as a way to put the entirety of the burden for the genocide on Benjamin Netanyahu, whitewashing the fact that it could not have been carried out without support from Joe Biden.
This is bolstered by the fact that in his interview with Wajahat Ali, Hunter Biden claimed that his father “believes all the things that I just said” and pretended that Joe Biden put pressure on Netanyahu, adding that Joe Biden “did his best to curtail and to curb the most awful instincts of Netanyahu”.
Hunter Biden’s comments in this context seem more to be part of an effort to whitewash the Democratic Party and Joe Biden’s direct complicity in the Gaza genocide. … continue
Switzerland has selected a documentary featuring testimonies from survivors in the Gaza Strip as its entry for the 2027 Academy Awards, media reports said Thursday, Anadolu reports.
“Who Is Still Alive,” directed by Geneva-based filmmaker Nicolas Wadimoff, will compete for a nomination in the Best International Feature Film category at the 99th Academy Awards, Swissinfo reported.
The documentary places Gaza survivors in an abstract setting where they recount their experiences.
The jury said the film directly addresses feelings of loss, uprooting and belonging, according to a statement by Switzerland’s Federal Office of Culture.
“Who Is Still Alive” won the Prix de Soleure, Switzerland’s most prestigious film award, at the Solothurn Film Festival earlier this year.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is expected to announce a shortlist of international submissions in December. The five final nominees will be revealed Jan. 21, ahead of the Academy Awards ceremony on March 14.
UK taxpayers are unknowingly subsidizing “therapeutic healing” and psychological treatment of Israeli soldiers who served in Gaza, Declassified UK reported on 13 August.

Armed Israeli settlers, protected by the Israeli army, opened fire on Friday at activists and landowners gathered in the Harasa area of Beit Sahour, north of the Bethlehem, in southern West Bank
The solidarity event was organized by the Combatants for Peace movement alongside local landowners whose properties in the Ush Ghurab and Harasa areas—located north of the Bethlehem Governorate—are threatened with confiscation by settlers. The rally was attended by Christian clergy and members of the Beit Sahour Municipal Council.
Immediately upon the arrival of the activists and landowners, armed settlers opened fire directly toward the crowd and journalists; no injuries were reported. Despite the attack, participants managed to remove Israeli flags from a home that settlers had been attempting to take over. Israeli forces then intervened and forced the Palestinian landowners and activists to leave, while permitting the settlers to remain at the site.
On March 5, 2026, the Israeli army issued a military order establishing a jurisdiction area for the new “Yatsev” settlement outpost, located east of Beit Sahour. This declaration came approximately four months after a group of settlers seized the former military camp area of Ush Ghurab and set up several mobile homes (caravans) to establish a new settlement presence on the ground.
Since the outpost’s establishment, settlers—under military protection—have repeatedly attacked local landowners and prevented them from cultivating or accessing their property. Palestinian community leaders continue to call for an increased presence to support local residents, strengthen their resilience, and help them maintain hold of their land.
The Israeli army reportedly opened fire on civilian areas of a rural village in southern Syria, in the Daraa province, from areas it also occupies in southern Syria.
According to Syrian state television Al-Ikhbariya, the Israeli army opened fire toward civilian homes in several sections of the village of Maariya.
The gunfire reportedly forced some residents to leave their homes. … Full article
Three Palestinian fishermen were injured Friday when Israeli naval vessels opened fire on them while they were working off the coast of Gaza City, a local union official said, Anadolu reports.
The attack was the latest Israeli violation of a ceasefire agreement in effect in the Gaza Strip since Oct. 10, 2025.
The violations have killed 1,260 Palestinians and injured 4,154 others, according to Palestinian figures.

US investment bank JPMorgan has suggested that Iran and Oman’s strategy of imposing mandatory “navigational safety” fees to transit the Strait of Hormuz may be legally justified, the Financial Times (FT) reported earlier this month.
JPMorgan explained in a memo that international law grants ships the right of “innocent passage” through territorial waters, making it illegal to charge fees simply for transit (tolls).
However, charging fees for specific navigational and security services may be permissible, the memo argued.
For example, Denmark and Sweden currently levy charges on vessels transiting the Danish Straits. Rather than charging a toll, which would be illegal, they charge for services.
Denmark’s Pilotage Act makes pilotage mandatory for vessels carrying hazardous cargo – such as oil, chemicals, or gases – or more than 5,000 metric tons of bunker oil. … continue
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says an American MQ-9 Reaper drone has been shot down over the southern Iranian province of Hormozgan.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps’ Public Relations Department said in a brief statement on Friday that the IRGC’s new advanced defense system intercepted and destroyed an MQ-9 Reaper drone in the skies of Hormozgan, under the control of the country’s integrated air defense network.
This came a day after the Washington Post reported that the United States has lost 45 MQ-9 Reaper drones since launching its war of aggression against Iran, with Iranian air defenses bringing down roughly a quarter of the US fleet and exposing the vulnerability of one of Washington’s key surveillance and strike platforms.
According to the report, the losses could cost US taxpayers more than $1.3 billion, with each Reaper estimated to be worth between $30 million and $50 million, depending on its configuration. … Full article
WASHINGTON – The national debt of the United States has increased by more than $500 billion since July 1 and has come close to a record high of $40 trillion, RIA Novosti calculated based on data from the US Treasury Department.
In early July, that number was $39.389 trillion, by mid-August, the figure reached $39.913 trillion. Thus, the net increase in less than a month and a half amounted to $524.22 billion.
In the first 10 months of the 2026 fiscal year alone, the US government allocated a record $963 billion to service and pay interest on the national debt, RIA Novosti previously found out based on data from the Congressional Budget Office.
In the future, the debt burden will only increase. According to the congressional estimates, the US national debt will continue to grow continuously over the next decade. As early as fiscal year 2027, the figure is expected to exceed $41.3 trillion, the psychological mark of 50 trillion will be reached by 2033, and by fiscal year 2036 it will reach more than $56.2 trillion.

The Nord Stream sabotage has produced years of claims, leaks and competing theories, but only recently have two formal legal records begun to show what can be tested in court. In Germany, federal prosecutors have charged Ukrainian national Serhii Kuznietsov over the pipeline explosions. Meanwhile, in London, Nord Stream AG sued Lloyd’s Insurance Company S.A. and Arch Insurance (EU) DAC after insurers refused to pay for the damage; the Commercial Court’s judgment examined the attack in technical detail without deciding who carried it out.
The London proceedings were not intended to identify the perpetrators. Their purpose was to determine whether the insurers’ war exclusion applied. The court heard extensive forensic and operational evidence, yet many of the questions raised by Nord Stream AG’s experts receded once the judge concluded that the exclusion applied under any plausible account of the attack. The judgment settled the insurance claim without identifying the perpetrators or settling what happened at the Nord Stream blast sites on the Baltic seabed in September 2022.
The German proceedings claim to go further by identifying an alleged participant. Yet the publicly disclosed case has not established that the Andromeda was present above every blast site, matched evidence recovered from the yacht to material from the seabed, or explained how the operation was carried out.
The London court found that it did not need to identify the perpetrators, while German prosecutors have yet to prove their case against Ukrainian national Serhii Kuznietsov, whom they accuse of participating in the sabotage. More importantly, the evidence heard in London exposed why Germany’s yacht story is taking on water. Prosecutors have a boat, a crew and a theory, but no publicly demonstrated forensic bridge to the Baltic seabed.
Almost four years after a series of underwater explosions tore through the Nord Stream pipelines near the Danish island of Bornholm, the German prosecution and the London insurance trial have presented two very different versions of the event before the public.
Germany claims that a covert Ukrainian military team sailed into the Baltic Sea aboard a 50-foot charter sailing yacht, dove down to four pipelines and planted charges, under orders from Ukrainian state agencies.
Conversely in London, after six weeks of deliberation—including evidence on explosives, subsea operations and the damage itself, the court ruled without deciding who carried out the attack. However, the insurance trial has introduced some compelling evidence which could potentially refine the facts of this story.
Two competing narratives
Germany’s Federal Prosecutor indicted Ukrainian national Serhii Kuznietsov in Hamburg on 30 June 2026, accusing him of coordinating the team aboard Andromeda.
On 6 July, the Commercial Court in London rejected Nord Stream AG’s insurance claim after finding that the sabotage fell within a war exclusion—a conclusion the judge could reach whether the attacker was assumed to be from Ukraine, Russia or the United States.
More crucially, the London’s judgment leaves behind a highly credible and substantial technical record, one which presents serious difficulties for the German trial’s version of events. The forensic experts examined explosions at two groups of sites, separated by roughly six and a half kilometres, and over a time window of 17 hours, rupturing three pipeline strings, and damaging a fourth, although without opening it, and leaving another area of explosive damage known as “the Dent”. … continue
A NATO fighter jet has destroyed a drone that entered Latvian airspace, the US-led bloc has said.
The announcement came as Ukraine carried out a major UAV attack against Russia’s northwestern Leningrad Region on Friday. A total of 54 drones were shot down or intercepted above the region overnight, local governor Aleksandr Drozdenko said. A fire broke out at the key Baltic Sea port of Ust-Luga during the raid, but it was swiftly extinguished, according to the governor.
There have been multiple reports in recent months of Ukrainian drones violating the airspace of Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, and Finland, or crashing inside those countries, while on their way to Russia. […]
Moscow previously warned that if Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania knowingly help to facilitate Ukrainian drone strikes, Russia could consider them complicit in the attacks and would have the right to self-defense under the UN Charter. – Full article
Instances of Ukrainian interference in the internal affairs of European countries continue to grow. The Kiev regime is intensifying its destabilization activities abroad, using even terrorist tactics to boycott its own European allies. As the pro-Ukraine agenda becomes increasingly unpopular in Europe, the regime is left with little choice but to employ illegal interference methods to prevent its source of military and financial aid from drying up.
Recently, Kostadin Kostadinov, leader of the Bulgarian opposition party Revival, publicly advocated for the expulsion of the Ukrainian ambassador to Sofia, Olesya Ilashchuk. He accuses the Ukrainian diplomat of interfering in Bulgaria’s domestic affairs, particularly regarding recent drone incidents.
These comments come amidst the controversy surrounding the incursion into Bulgarian airspace by a Ukrainian drone, which exploded in the Kardam region near energy facilities of the Trans-Balkan Pipeline. Bulgarian Ministry of Defense specialists analyzed the wreckage and concluded it was a “Maya” UAV used by the Ukrainian armed forces.
Following the incident, the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned Ukrainian diplomats in the country to provide explanations to the authorities in Sofia. However, Ambassador Ilashchuk’s stance was deemed inappropriate. She downplayed the incident’s significance, regarding it as insignificant, even though the explosion occurred near an energy facility – a situation that could have led to serious consequences, such as larger explosions, massive fires, and the release of toxic gases. … continue
Ukraine does not take back all of its prisoners of war, only those it considers ideologically or politically useful, Institute of CIS Countries leading researcher Alexander Dudchak tells Sputnik.
“Those who could tell the truth about conditions in Russian captivity – that they are fed, receive medical care, and are treated humanely – are taken back last, or not taken at all,” Dudchak says.
Who is given priority?
Ukraine agrees to take back only those prisoners who are willing to speak about alleged “brutality” by Russian forces and can be used in the information war
Priority is given to officers, nationalists, Azov fighters.
In April, Ukraine refused to take back rank-and-file soldiers and contract troops, demanding only unit commanders
“According to Ukrainian human rights activists, around 40% of the prisoners Ukraine could take back remain on the lists for years because Kiev does not submit exchange requests or blocks the process,” the pundit notes. … continue
A temporary open-air pool erected outside Berlin’s iconic theater was supposed to represent the ultimate low-barrier urban oasis. Instead, a plan to allow only Black people to attend on Fridays has sparked outrage and accusations of racism.
Conceived as a free, non-commercial refuge requiring no identity checks — though reliant on a competitive online reservation system — the €300,000 project was introduced to the public as a shared summer meeting point. However, the organizers have implemented a protocol that excludes anyone non-Black one day this week, a clearly discriminatory practice.
Tensions arose over a specific event slated for Friday, Aug. 14. According to the official program, “During this period, the public bath is exclusively open to Black communities.” … Full article

The makers of our Constitution undertook to secure conditions favorable to the pursuit of happiness. … They conferred against the Government the right to be let alone — most comprehensive of rights and the right most valued by civilized men.” — Justice Louis D. Brandeis (1856-1941)
The rapid spread of public surveillance cameras represents something far more consequential than a new piece of police technology. It represents a fundamental change in the relationship between the individual and the state.
These cameras allow government agents to record, identify, catalog and retroactively track the movements of people who have committed no crime, are suspected of no wrongdoing and have done nothing to invite government scrutiny. That’s not public safety. It’s an assault upon individual privacy.
Privacy is not a privilege granted by government. It is an aspect of personal liberty that government exists to protect. It is a natural human right protected from the government in the Bill of Rights. The fact that a person leaves his home and travels upon a public road does not mean that he has surrendered that right.
There is an enormous moral and constitutional difference between a police officer who happens to observe a person in public and government surveillance that automatically and systematically records that person’s vehicle, location and movements; and stores that information for future use. … continue
A sweeping overhaul of Germany’s intelligence services proposed by the government could infringe on police powers in violation of constitutional safeguards, opposition politicians have warned.
On Wednesday, Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt presented a 730-page package comprising three draft laws that would significantly expand the powers of the Federal Intelligence Service (BND) and the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), Germany’s foreign and domestic intelligence agencies respectively.
While there is broad political agreement that Germany’s security apparatus requires modernization, critics say the proposed expansion of the BfV’s mandate goes too far. Germany has traditionally maintained a strict separation between intelligence gathering and police work to prevent concentration of power.
“Dobrindt, with these demands that he hastily dictated into the draft legislation, is doing far more harm than good,” Free Democratic Party (FDP) leader Wolfgang Kubicki told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
The BfV is currently focused on collecting and analyzing data. Under the proposed reform, however, the agency would receive new “operative powers” allowing it to actively disrupt suspected threats. These could include hacking computer systems, feeding false information to targets, altering or deleting data, and secretly sabotaging equipment believed to be connected to hostile operations. … continue

Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump are backing plans for luxury development on Albania’s Sazan Island and the nearby Zvërnec coast, where protected territory and village property claims have collided with the development drive of Edi Rama, Albania’s four-term prime minister and leader of the ruling Socialist Party. The project helped trigger nationwide protests before prosecutors froze more than €110 million connected to land acquired for the Zvërnec resort.
ABC called its August 2026 investigation The Flamingo Revolution and led its international audience through wetlands, environmental destruction and the spectacle of a country in revolt. Its report delivered vivid scenes of Albania’s largest protest movement in decades while leaving the central question surrounding Kushner’s consortium largely untouched.
The public deserved the evidence ABC left outside the frame, beginning with what Kushner’s representatives knew before their consortium bought the land. … continue

WEST BANK – The Israeli occupation forces took over three newly built multi‑story homes in the village of Jalud, south of Nablus in the northern West Bank, after expelling their residents at gunpoint.
Local sources said Israeli forces stormed Jalud village and turned three homes into military posts and watchtowers after forcing Palestinian families to leave them.
Israeli raids and settler attacks are escalating south of Nablus, where soldiers have recently commandeered several Palestinian homes as military posts.
In Kafr Sur town, south of Tulkarem, the Israeli army delivered today demolition notices for Palestinian homes and agricultural structures.
According to local sources, the demolition notices targeted a five‑story apartment building, two apartments, four inhabited homes, one unfinished house, and a farm in the town.
GAZA – Jamal Abu Kamil, director of the Gaza governorate police, was assassinated Thursday evening in an Israeli airstrike that targeted his vehicle in Gaza City’s al-Rashid street.
Gaza’s interior ministry confirmed that the Israeli occupation army assassinated police chief Jamal Abu Kamil, 43, in an aerial attack on his vehicle southwest of Gaza City.
According to medical sources, other people were injured in the same strike on the car.
Media sources said that an Israeli drone fired three missiles at Abu Kamil’s vehicle in Sheikh Ajlin neighborhood, southwest of Gaza City.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has censured France and other countries for preaching about human rights and international law while supporting Israeli and US war crimes.
Araghchi made the remarks in an X post on Thursday, after the French Foreign Ministry said 32 states, including France, the UK and Canada, along with the European Union’s foreign policy chief, have in a joint statement condemned the use of capital punishment against foreign-linked rioters in Iran.
“Countries like France should stop lecturing the world about ‘human rights’ and international law. The hypocrisy is blatant and embarrassing,” the top Iranian diplomat said. … Full article
Iran has thwarted a planned Syrian military intervention in Lebanon that was being prepared at the request of the United States, delivering a direct warning to Damascus that any Syrian military entry into Lebanese territory would be met with a regional response, according to Iranian sources cited by U News.
The Iranian warning included threats to stir up the Syrian–Iraqi border, open a confrontation line in Homs, support Alawite movements in the Syrian coastal region, and encourage the Kurds to return militarily to the outskirts of Aleppo.
The warning was not directed solely at Damascus; it also reached Ankara, Baghdad, Doha, and Riyadh, carrying the message that any Syrian adventure against Hezbollah in Lebanon would not remain confined to the Bekaa Valley but could turn into a broad regional confrontation within Syrian territory.
Iran succeeded in transforming any potential Syrian intervention in Lebanon from a military option that could be marketed to the US into a high-cost regional adventure, sources said. The Iranian warning, which reached Damascus through Turkish channels, included a threat of Iranian ballistic missile strikes that would begin from Damascus and include, in the first wave, more than 100 strategic targets, foremost among them the Syrian presidential palace. … continue

For decades, U.S. policy in Lebanon has focused on the elimination of Hezbollah, or at least its military wing. But the Trump administration has taken this effort to new heights.
The State Department is sponsoring the first ever direct talks between Lebanon and Israel since the Madrid peace talks, with the disarmament of Hezbollah being a central objective of those talks.
Washington has also taken the unprecedented step of sanctioning individuals from outside the party whom it accuses of undermining the campaign against Hezbollah, including members of Lebanon’s state security apparatus. Meanwhile, the U.S. and Israel are engaged in an unprecedented financial crackdown on Hezbollah, as the New York Timesreported this week.
Ironically, however, Donald Trump is also the first sitting American president to express a willingness to hold direct talks with the Lebanese Shiite movement.
“I would speak to Hezbollah. I speak to everybody. I’ll speak to people that a lot of people think I shouldn’t be speaking to, and things work out,” Trump told reporters during an oval office meeting with his Lebanese counterpart Joseph Aoun last month.
While it would be easy to dismiss these remarks as typical Trumpian grandstanding, there appears to be more to the story. … continue
The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has denounced the latest claims by Israeli officials over the occupied Golan Heights, emphasizing that the strategic region is an “inseparable” part of Syria.
The ministry, in a statement released on Thursday, vehemently condemned the rhetoric of criminal Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the Golan Heights, occupied by the Tel Aviv regime for almost 60 years, will remain part of Israel “for eternity”, and his fierce opposition to the establishment of a Palestinian state.
“Basically, the leader of the criminal gang and mafia ruling over the occupied Palestinian territories is not in a position to comment on the formation of an independent Palestinian state, because the Palestinian land belongs to the Palestinian people, and the racist illusions of the genocidal Zionist regime cannot change this reality,” the statement added.
It added that “the Golan Heights are an inseparable part of the territory of Syria, and the colonial ambitions of a usurping and occupying entity cannot change its legal and historical realities.”
The Iranian foreign ministry also condemned Colombia’s recent recognition of the Israeli regime’s sovereignty over the occupied Golan Heights, calling it a violation of the UN Charter and international law. … continue
Divergent threats, US ties, and economic interests leave the collective-defense pact’s real purpose open to dispute.
By F.M. Shakil | The Cradle | August 13, 2026
The oil-rich Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, nuclear-armed Pakistan, and Turkiye, which commands NATO’s second-largest army, signed the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement on Friday, 7 August. The accord arrived as fighting again intensified in Yemen. Days later, the Ansarallah-aligned Yemeni armed forces (YAF) launched ballistic missiles at Marib and the Red Sea port of Mokha, the latest escalation against Saudi-backed forces.
Iran noted the turn toward regional security arrangements, saying it showed a growing recognition that security cannot be guaranteed by foreign powers. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei said the accord reflected a rapidly changing understanding of security across the region.
Pakistan welcomed the accord and said the Mecca agreement stipulates that an attack on any member will be treated as an attack on all. Islamabad described it as a major step toward stronger strategic relations, regional security, and cooperation in mutual defense.
Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar called the accord a defensive document that does not target any one country. Posting on X on 9 August, Dar said it remained open to any regional state willing to commit to its founding principles.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan went further, insisting that neither Iran nor any other country was the pact’s designated target. In an online discussion, he also expressed hope that Egypt would eventually join.
Veteran Pakistani diplomat Riffat Masood offered a narrower reading. In a discussion with Saudi-American researcher Dr Hamza al-Kanani, Pakistan’s former ambassador to Iran and Norway said the phrase “an attack on one is an attack on all” applies specifically to external threats.
“It does not have any regional implications, which means that this clause would apply whenever any country signing this agreement came under attack from Israel, the US, or any external force,” she claimed.
Masood added that the article does not cover intra-regional rivalries involving Iran or the YAF. … continue

A US Army-funded artillery plant near Dallas, built to produce 155mm shells for Ukraine, never produced a single usable shell, ProPublica reported.
Workers described robots catching fire, machines smashing into equipment, steel cracking beyond repair and giant presses needing to be beaten with a sledgehammer just to function.
“It was just a bunch of guys taking turns going at the machine with a sledgehammer every night,” one former employee said.
The Army halted work on two of the plant’s three production lines in 2025 after General Dynamics missed multiple deadlines.
The company was still awarded billions in new contracts. … Full article
The CIA Has Accused Israel Of Fabricating Iranian Assassination Threat
By Justin K.P. | The Dissident | August 13, 2026
Last month, “intelligence” was relayed by Israel that Iran was supposedly planning on assassinating Trump, which resulted in him “secretly flying out of Turkey in an alternate military aircraft”.
But the claims of an Iranian assassination attempt against Trump relayed by Israel were deemed to be bogus even by U.S. intelligence.
The Washington Post reported that “The assassination threat was relayed by the Israeli government to the CIA, where analysts did not view the intelligence as compelling and conveyed that skepticism to Trump administration officials”.
The article added, “Another official called the reports of threats against Trump’s life ‘Israeli-derived, not U.S.-generated, and viewed as low confidence.’”
The article added, “Some U.S. intelligence officials saw Israel’s sharing of the warning about threats to Trump’s life as designed less to inform than to influence the president’s decision-making and U.S. policy in the region, a current and a former U.S. official said” with the report quoting one official saying it “fit a broader pattern of Israeli intelligence reporting that some officials see as designed as much to shape presidential decision-making as to inform it”.
Indeed, fabricated claims of Iran planning to assassinate Donald Trump seem to have been Israel’s most successful deception deployed to get Trump to carry out its preferred policy on Iran. … continue
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has warned US officials that misleading intelligence can be more dangerous than false news, pointing to Washington’s record of strategic miscalculations.
In an English-language post, Araghchi called on US officials to “beware,” arguing that intelligence failures have repeatedly contributed to major US miscalculations.
He said the United States has “long made miscalculations due to shortcomings in intelligence,” citing the war on Iran as a prominent example.
Araghchi also identified the Strait of Hormuz as “an even bigger miscalculation”; he argued that Washington was making a major mistake in thinking that it can control the key waterway.
Araghchi warns Washington over intelligence failures
Araghchi’s warning comes amid continued scrutiny of intelligence assessments surrounding the US-Israeli war on Iran.
The Iranian foreign minister’s argument centers on the consequences of intelligence failures when they become the basis for military and foreign-policy decisions.
An inaccurate assessment can extend beyond the intelligence community, shaping decisions over military operations, diplomatic pressure, sanctions, and escalation.

The Reno Gazette Journal(RGJ) reports in “Climate models project Reno-Sparks could be a desert by late century,” that climate change is poised to dramatically reshape the world’s ecosystems, with forests giving way to savannas, deserts, and other major vegetation shifts occurring by the end of the century. This is false. The study does not observe ecosystem changes occurring today, but instead projects hypothetical future vegetation changes using climate models that rely on the now-discredited and retracted RCP 8.5 worst-case emissions scenario, making the scientific study used to write the RGJ newspaper article invalid.
Readers would never know it from RGJ’s coverage that the scientific model used to generate the study’s alarming findings was pronounced as implausible by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in April. Yet the information about that climate model retraction is easy to understand and readily available if they bothered to look. … continue

Scientists (Yilgan and Jónsdóttir, 2026) report annual mean sea ice extent in the Greenland Sea was 8.4 times greater in 2023 (2,403.6 km²) than in 2019 (287.6 km²).
In the month of January, the sea ice extent was 6.4 times larger in 2024 (20,308 km²) than in 2017 (312 km²).
Hand-in-hand with the recent sea ice expansion, the region has experienced a short-term 1°C cooling from 2016 to 2024.
The recent trend for the Greenland Sea appears to be consistent with the trajectory enveloping much of the Arctic since the mid-2000s as reported by England et al., 2025. … Full article

We must begin by condemning them and their organizations by name; we know who they are. Osama Bin Laden, Hezbollah, Hamas, and Islamic Jihad are only the most prominent. The countries harboring and training them include not just Afghanistan – an easy target for blame – but Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Syria, Sudan, the Palestinian Authority, Libya, Algeria and even our presumed friends Saudi Arabia and Egypt. … continue
