Iran Speeding Up Transfer Of Precision Weapons To Terrorist Group Hezbollah: Report

/10 Comments/in , /by

Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism and the backers of the terrorist group Hezbollah in Lebanon, is reportedly speeding up its transfer of precision weapons to Hezbollah as Israel is rumored to be preparing for a war to protect itself in the north.

According to Missile Threat, Hezbollah already has 130,000 rockets, and is considered the world’s most heavily armed non-state actor. As recently as Thursday, Hezbollah launched 50 rockets and missiles at northern Israel.

“We can no longer accept [Hezbollah’s elite] Radwan force sitting on the border,” Tzachi Hanegbi, Israel’s national security adviser, told Channel 12 earlier this month. “We can no longer accept Resolution 1701 [a 2006 U.N. Security Council resolution that bans Hezbollah from being within nearly 20 miles of Israel’s border] not being implemented.”

“The situation in the north must be changed. And it will change. If Hezbollah agrees to change things via diplomacy, very good, if not — we will have to act,” he said. “We will have to ensure that the situation in the north is different.” (Read more from “Iran Speeding Up Transfer Of Precision Weapons To Terrorist Group Hezbollah: Report” HERE)

GOP Governor Vetoes Bans On Gender Procedures For Minors, Biological Boys Competing In Girls Sports

/4 Comments/in , /by

Governor Mike DeWine (R-OH) vetoed legislation Friday that would have banned gender procedures for minors and prevented boys who identify as girls from competing in girls’ sports.

Ohio House Bill 68, which was passed by the Republican-controlled Ohio General Assembly, was made up of two acts: the “Save Adolescents from Experimentation Act” and the “Save Women’s Sports Act.” The bill would ban transgender procedures on minors, such as double mastectomies on girls who identify as boys, and other genital procedures for children with gender dysphoria. It would also also prohibit biological boys from competing in girls’ sports across the state.

HB 68 passed mostly along party lines on December 13, with the Ohio House voting 62-27 and the Ohio Senate voting 24-8 to approve the legislation, but after issuing his veto on Friday, DeWine said he was concerned about the legal implications of signing HB 68 into law.

“I truly believe that we can address a number of goals in House Bill 68 by administrative rules that will have likely a better chance of surviving judicial review and being adopted,” DeWine said at a press conference, ABC News reported.

Iraq Works to Expel U.S. Forces After Iran-Backed Shiite Militia Attacks

/8 Comments/in , /by

Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani said on Thursday that his government is working to expel U.S. and allied troops. Iran-linked Shiite militias have relentlessly attacked American forces in Iraq since Hamas terrorists attacked Israel on October 7 and began the current Gaza war.

“We are in the process of reorganizing this relationship. With the presence of capable Iraqi forces, the Iraqi government is heading towards ending the presence of the international coalition forces,” Sudani said at a press conference with socialist Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez.

Spain has some troops in Iraq, but the bulk of the foreign forces are Americans, nominally serving as advisers, trainers, and consultants to the Iraqi military.

Sanchez said his government would support “the unity, sovereignty, and stability of Iraq.” He also condemned Israel for its strikes in Gaza, a position Sudani applauded.

Sudani said his administration would respect “the legal authorization granted by previous governments” for the presence of foreign troops but criticized foreign forces for engaging in “military operations” that he rejected as a “violation of Iraqi sovereignty.” (Read more from “Iraq Works to Expel U.S. Forces After Iran-Backed Shiite Militia Attacks” HERE)

Report: Chinese Spy Balloon Exploits American Internet Provider to Communicate

/8 Comments/in , /by

A recent report revealed that the Chinese spy balloon that infiltrated the United States several months ago utilized an American internet service provider to establish communication links. According to an NBC News report published on Thursday, this information was disclosed by two current and one former U.S. official familiar with the assessment.

The assessment indicated that the spy balloon, which traversed the United States, was connected to a U.S.-based company, facilitating the exchange of communications primarily related to its navigation with China. Officials who are well-versed with the assessment highlighted that this connection allowed the balloon to transmit burst transmissions, characterized by high-bandwidth collections of data over short periods.

President Joe Biden’s administration reportedly sought a “highly secretive” court order to gather intelligence about the spy balloon while it hovered over the United States. The court’s ruling, however, remains shrouded in mystery. The order would have empowered U.S. intelligence agencies to conduct electronic surveillance on the balloon, including its communications via the American internet service provider.

The company implicated in the communication channel has denied any involvement, and its name has not been disclosed to safeguard the identities of the sources. Notably, the Biden administration reportedly aimed to keep the incident involving the Chinese spy balloon under wraps.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken later declared that the Chinese spy balloon chapter was “closed” as long as China refrained from similar actions in the future. Despite the reassurances, defense and intelligence officials maintain that, according to the U.S. assessment, the balloon was unable to transmit intelligence back to China while it was over U.S. airspace.

Legal Battle Unfolds: Donald Trump’s Name to Appear on Colorado Primary Ballot

/9 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump’s eligibility for the 2024 presidential ballot in Colorado continues to unfold. Last week, the Colorado Supreme Court delivered a pivotal ruling, asserting that the Constitution’s ‘Insurrection Clause’ prohibited Trump from appearing on the ballot.

The court’s 4-3 decision marked a departure from a previous ruling by Colorado District Court Judge Sarah Wallace.

However, the story took a new turn on Thursday when Colorado’s Secretary of State, Jena Griswold, announced that Trump’s name would still grace the primary ballot. This decision comes as Trump’s legal team appeals the Colorado Supreme Court ruling.

“With the appeal filed, Donald Trump will be included as a candidate on Colorado’s 2024 Presidential Primary Ballot when certification occurs on January 5, 2024, unless the US Supreme Court declines to take the case or otherwise affirms the Colorado Supreme Court ruling,” stated Griswold’s office in a press release.

The Colorado Supreme Court had indicated that its ruling would be stayed until January 4, allowing time for potential appeals to be filed. If a cert petition reached the court by that date, the stay would extend until the U.S. Supreme Court made a decision. This procedural nuance emerged due to the impending deadline of January 5, the date for certifying names for the state’s primary election ballot.

Former President Trump wasted no time in expressing his intention to file a petition for the Supreme Court to review the case. The Colorado Republican Party, intervening in the matter, also filed its own petition. The Supreme Court will now decide which petition(s) to grant, potentially impacting the legal arguments presented in the case.

New Technique Destroyed 99% of Cancer Cells in Lab Study

/3 Comments/in , , /by

Groundbreaking advancements in cancer treatment have emerged as scientists unveil a revolutionary method to dismantle cancer cells. This groundbreaking discovery involves the activation of aminocyanine molecules through near-infrared light, causing synchronized vibrations that rupture cancer cell membranes.

Aminocyanine molecules, recognized for their application in bioimaging as synthetic dyes, have long been utilized to detect cancer at low doses. These stable molecules exhibit a remarkable affinity for attaching themselves to cell exteriors.

Researchers from Rice University, Texas A&M University, and the University of Texas spearheaded this transformative approach, marking a substantial leap from previous cancer-killing molecular machines like Feringa-type motors.

Describing these novel molecular machines as molecular jackhammers, chemist James Tour from Rice University notes their unprecedented speed and responsiveness to near-infrared light compared to their predecessors.

The significance of near-infrared light lies in its ability to penetrate deeper into the body, potentially offering non-surgical treatment options for cancers within bones and organs. (Read more from “New Technique Destroyed 99% of Cancer Cells in Lab Study” HERE)

WHO Chief Demands Plant-Based Food Systems to ‘Save Planet’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The chief of the World Health Organization, that group of international bureaucrats who not only apparently protected China when the COVID-19 pandemic came out of a research lab there but demanded masks and shots for the world, now is insisting on a plant-based food supply chain to save the globe.

In an online video, WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said, “Our food systems are harming the health of people and planet. Food systems contribute to over 30% of greenhouse gas emissions, and account for almost one-third of the global burden of disease. Transforming food systems is therefore essential by shifting for this healthier, diversified and more plant-based diets.”

He continued, “If food systems deliver healthy diets for all we could save 8 million lives per year. WHO is committed to supporting countries to develop and implement policies to improve diets and fight climate change. I’m therefore very pleased that over 130 countries have signed the code 28 UAE Declaration on climate and health. Together, we can protect and promote the health of both people and planet.” . . .

A report at the Post Millennial explained with the statement, he was declaring “war on meat and traditional farming.”

“A new declaration from the World Health Organization has revealed that it wants the masses to eat less meat and more plant-based foods in order to supposedly combat ‘climate change,'” the report continued. (Read more from “WHO Chief Demands ‘Plant-Based’ Food Systems to ‘Save Planet’” HERE)

Massive Anti-Israel Protests Erupt at World Trade Center

/1 Comment/in , /by

Manhattan witnessed a dramatic surge of anti-Israel protests on Thursday as thousands of demonstrators flooded the streets, amplifying their voices against the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. The protesters, organized under the banner of “Flood NYC for Palestine,” strategically targeted several iconic locations in lower Manhattan, including City Hall, Zuccotti Park (known for the Occupy Wall Street movement), and the Bank of New York Mellon headquarters.

Among the fervent chants echoing through the city streets were calls for the destruction of Israel, with ralliers shouting, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” The protest took a particularly poignant turn as one group organized a funeral procession, mourning children who lost their lives in Gaza.

Approximately 1,000 demonstrators participated in the march, which coincided with the escalation of Israel’s ground invasion of Gaza.

Nerdeen Kiswandi, the founder of event organizer Within Our Lifetime, delivered a passionate speech at Zuccotti Park, emphasizing the perceived role of the United States in supporting Israel. She contended that without U.S. backing, the Palestinian resistance would have overcome Israel long ago. The sentiment was echoed by Peru-born rapper Immortal Technique, who claimed that Israel takes orders from the United States.

The protesters marched towards the World Trade Center’s Oculus, where they surrounded the front doors, repeating their familiar chant: “Free, free Palestine.” The group also targeted the Bank of New York Mellon headquarters, accusing the institution of financing genocide due to its investments in defense contractor Elbit Systems.

Despite the intensity of the demonstrations, no arrests were reported, according to law enforcement sources.

Simultaneously, thousands of older Jewish pro-Palestinian protesters gathered in Times Square, clad in all-black attire. In a silent and solemn procession, they laid to rest 500 effigies of dead children, symbolizing the toll of the conflict on both Gaza and Israel.

State Leaves Trump on 2024 Ballot After Calls to Remove Him

/4 Comments/in , /by

California voters will have the option to select former President Trump in the 2024 GOP presidential primary despite calls from the state’s lieutenant governor to remove him from the ballot.

Secretary of State Shirley Weber certified the list of candidates Thursday night.

The decision from the Golden State came hours after Maine’s secretary of state disqualified the GOP front-runner from the ballot – a move that comes in the wake of a similar ruling from the Colorado Supreme Court.

The divided court ruled that Trump is ineligible to run for the presidency under the US Constitution’s insurrection clause, arguing that his actions fueled the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol by right-wing protesters aiming to disrupt congressional certification of President Biden’s 2020 election victory.

Activists in other states, such as Oregon, have asked election officials to remove the former president from their states’ primary ballots under Section 3 of the 14th amendment. (Read more from “State Leaves Trump on 2024 Ballot After Calls to Remove Him” HERE)

Christians in Nigeria Massacred in Christmas Weekend Terror Attacks

/2 Comments/in , /by

At least 160 Nigerian Christians were murdered and 300 injured in a series of terror attacks over Christmas weekend, according to multiple reports.

The attacks on at least 26 Christian communities made it “one of the most violent [times] in the area’s history,” Maria Lozano, a representative for the group Aid to the Church in Need, told the Catholic News Agency.

President of the Christian Association of Nigeria Archbishop Daniel Okoh condemned the attacks, which some have blamed on the Muslim Fulani militia.

“We condemn these acts of violence in the strongest possible terms. The burning down of houses, and worship centers, and the destruction of properties worth millions of naira is not only a criminal act but also a direct assault on our shared values of peace, unity, and mutual respect,” Okoh said, reports CNA.
