Mojtaba Khamenei had to be ‘Pulled from the Rubble’ of Hospital after US Strikes Nearly Killed Him a Second Time: Report

/5 Comments/in , , /by

. . .Mojtaba Khamenei was rushed to a Tehran hospital after the February strikes targeting his father nearly killed him, only to be “pulled from the rubble” again after the United States and Israel bombed the medical center, an Iranian cleric revealed in an interview with Qatari television this week.

After obliterating Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s Tehran compound — which killed the 86-year-old supreme leader and dozens of his top leaders — the allies also reportedly bombed three different hospitals in Tehran on Feb. 28 to launch the war.

The younger Khamenei, 56, was pulled from underneath the rubble of one of the hospitals, before going vanishing to an unknown location — and has not been seen in public or his voice heard since.

“Even after he had been wounded and taken to the hospital, three hospitals in Tehran were bombed,” Mohsen Heydari, a member of Iran’s Assembly of Experts, told Qatari television network Al Araby Thursday.

“Mojtaba Khamenei was in the third hospital and was pulled from the rubble.” (Read more from “Mojtaba Khamenei had to be ‘Pulled from the Rubble’ of Hospital after US Strikes Nearly Killed Him a Second Time: Report” HERE)

UN adds Over 60 Companies to Israel Blacklist

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United Nations’ human rights office added 61 companies to a blacklist of businesses with activities in Judea and Samaria and eastern Jerusalem, in an annual report released on Friday.

The Database of Business Enterprises now holds details on 214 companies, based in 11 countries, including major operations like Motorola, along with travel apps such as Airbnb, Booking.com and Tripadvisor. Five entities were removed since last year’s publication.

The blacklist is issued by the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.

It was created in 2020 under a UN Human Rights Council resolution mandate during the tenure of Michelle Bachelet, who dropped out of the race for UN secretary-general on Sept. 19, 2026, after the former Chilean president received the support of only one of the 15 UN Security Council members.

“This is a distorted mechanism—created by a deeply flawed body with an automatic majority against Israel. It was established solely to persecute the Jewish state, with no equivalent anywhere else in the world,” the Israeli mission to the UN in Geneva said in a statement.

Trump And Xi Found One Thing In Common On AI

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump’s biggest takeaway on artificial intelligence from his meeting with Chinese leadership was a new name for the technology.

Chinese President Xi Jinping “seemed to like” renaming artificial intelligence to “Super Intelligence” during the leaders’ Thursday summit at the White House, where they discussed the technology, the president said in a Friday Truth Social post. State Department staff were instructed to use the new term after Trump announced the change on Tuesday at the United Nations General Assembly, the Hill reported.

“Very productive meeting with President Xi for both the U.S.A. and China. Tremendous things will be happening,” the president said in a Friday morning Truth Social post. “Like almost everyone else, he seemed to like calling the poorly and inaccurately named Artificial Intelligence to a far more accurate and important name, SUPER INTELLIGENCE. That would be ‘SUPER!’ Everyone last night agreed, also.”

However, Xi did not use the term “Super Intelligence” when he spoke about the technology on Thursday.“We have both the capability and responsibility to develop and manage AI for good, and ensure that the development of AI is always under human control and serves the well-being of the people,” Xi said, according to the Hill.

‘Absolute Hate’ Farm Attack Victim Recounts Experience With Anti-White Ravagers

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A South African woman and her husband were attacked in a hate-fueled home invasion; she spoke exclusively to the Daily Caller about the harrowing experience and the steps the Trump administration is taking to end the violence.

The Afrikaner, Amanda Platt, shared her story with the Daily Caller Thursday, claiming that her attackers were granted “permission” by her government through the incitement of violence towards the country’s white minority.

In August 2023, Amanda and her husband, Tim, were asleep when several men broke into their home. Amanda immediately knew that if the attackers succeeded in capturing her, she could be tortured for hours, maybe days, before being left for dead on the land where her ancestors have lived since the 1600s.

“So you either got to be brave or die at the hands of these brutal, you know, be brutally murdered. That’s just what it is,” Amanda told the Caller Thursday, “and for us it’s like normal.”

Amanda and Tim fought to defend their home for an hour before they were finally overwhelmed as the first intruder made it through the door, crowbar in hand.

Netanyahu May Appoint Extremist Ben-Gvir As Defense Minister In Bid To Stay In Power

/0 Comments/in , /by

Israel’s extremist National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, said Tuesday that he would demand the defense minister post for the next Knesset term after the upcoming elections in October.

Ben-Gvir told reporters at a press conference that “it is time for someone from outside who is not bound by the old conceptions,” and that he wants to change the Israel Defense Forces’ rules of engagement in Gaza and Lebanon, according to Haaretz.

“I want us to be in a situation where, if stones and Molotov cocktails are thrown at our soldiers, they shoot,” he reportedly said.

Ben-Gvir has a long history of using extremist rhetoric to support Israel’s illegal occupations of the West Bank and parts of Southern Lebanon, and the country’s destruction of Gaza after Oct. 7.

As the U.S. tried to end the Iran War in June with a Memorandum of Understanding, he openly called for genocide in Lebanon. (Read more from “Netanyahu May Appoint Extremist Ben-Gvir As Defense Minister In Bid To Stay In Power” HERE)

China Launches Ambitious National Plan to Reverse Birth Rate Collapse

/0 Comments/in , /by

The director of China’s National Health Commission (NHC) announced during a press conference Monday that the Communist Party will be investing heavily in programs intended to raise the birth rate, particularly in expanding access to pediatric care and child care for working families.

The ambitious program is part of the Communist Party’s “15th Five-Year Plan” to improve the strength of the state generally, which emphasized the need to encourage Chinese citizens to marry and start large families. China has documented a dramatic decline in its birth rate over the past decade, defying the government’s decision to do away with the Mao Zedong-era “one-child policy” in 2015 and ultimately allowing families up to three children before forced government abortions and sterilization.

Despite the legal approval to reproduce, many Chinese citizens have foregone marrying and building families. China’s birth rate hit record lows in 2025, according to official government statistics, and China lost its status as the world’s most populous nation to India in 2023. Complicating factors is the reality of a much more substantial male than female population – estimates suggest China is home to about 33 more men than women – as a result of parents killing girl babies during the “one-child policy” era to try again for a more prestigious son.

Chinese statistics authorities announced in January that the population of China at the end of 2025 was 1.404 billion, down 3 million from the prior year. The birth rate declined 17 percent in a year, resulting in under 8 million births in 2025. Some experts attributed the decline to 2025 mostly overlapping with the Year of the Snake, which many Chinese parents consider inauspicious for giving birth.

Despite the years of discouraging statistics, NHC chief Lei Haichao attempted to present a more optimistic take on the nation’s demographic future during his remarks on Monday, offered to reporters during an event hosted by the country’s State Council Information Office, a formal government propaganda wing. Lei insisted that China was not alone in seeing its birth rate decline, especially among countries with rapid industrialization and growing economies.

U.S. Secretly Removed Accused Pedophile Diplomat From Britain: Report

/3 Comments/in , , /by

American authorities allegedly removed a U.S. diplomat serving in London from the country in a secret operation after he was accused of possessing child porn.

A report from The Sun — Britain’s top circulation newspaper — has claimed that U.S. secret agents carried out a clandestine operation on UK soil without informing local police, seizing an American diplomat from his London flat, taking him to a U.S. air base, and returning him to the United States.

The diplomat was reportedly under investigation after allegedly receiving indecent images of children from his brother. According to the report, American agents received a court order in the U.S. before carrying out the raid on the diplomat’s apartment in Putney, London, on August 25th. An investigation of the flat is said to have confirmed that the diplomat was in possession of the child pornography in question.

The move to remove the unnamed man back to the United States has riled feathers in London given that American officials have no authority to carry out policing operations in the United Kingdom.

A British government source is quoted by The Sun saying: “They should have told Scotland Yard when they carried out the raid, and certainly when they found material. Instead, we think they have taken him to a US airbase and flown him 4,000-plus miles to where his brother was being investigated. We think it was a dawn raid before they then took him to the base in a US military convoy. (Read more from “U.S. Secretly Removed Accused Pedophile Diplomat From Britain: Report” HERE)

Saudi Arabia’s Oil Lifeline Just Went Down. The World May Be Out Of Time

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Saudi Arabia could run out of oil available for export within days after an attack shut down a critical pipeline used to bypass the Strait of Hormuz.

The kingdom has enough crude stored at the Red Sea port of Yanbu to maintain current export levels for roughly five to seven days without new supplies flowing through its East-West Pipeline, Reuters reported Sunday citing Saudi oil buyers and traders. If the pipeline remains offline, the world risks losing as much as 4% of its oil supply.

“This is a big outage for the Kingdom, and the damage to its East-West Pipeline appears much more severe than the relatively minor hit it took in April. Saudi storage farms in Egypt can fill in for the pipeline’s lost flows for perhaps a week, but a lingering shutdown beyond that would short global supply by about 4 million barrels per day,” energy public policy analyst David Blackmon told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“Crude prices jumped 3% in overnight trading on the news, and U.S. gasoline prices will follow in the coming days. This incident, combined with lingering problems at the straits of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb, is likely to force gas prices at the pump even higher until they are favorably resolved,” Blackmon added.

The nearly 750-mile East-West Pipeline — owned by state-controlled oil company Saudi Aramco — was moving roughly four million barrels of crude per day toward Yanbu before an attack forced it offline, according to Reuters. Industry estimates for restoring the pipeline vary, with some sources telling the outlet repairs could take five to six weeks while others expect partial operations to resume sooner.

Trump Calls on Ukraine to Halt Strikes on Russian Diesel, Saying Attacks Causing Shortage

/1 Comment/in , /by

U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday called on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to halt strikes on Russian diesel, saying the attacks are causing a fuel shortage.

Trump was asked by a reporter if he had spoken with Zelenskyy following his recent conversation with Russia’s Vladimir Putin.

Trump responded by calling on Zelenskyy to halt strikes against Russia.

“Mr. Zelensky has to do one thing. He has to stop knocking out diesel fuel in Russia,” Trump told reporters on the sidelines of the Irish Open, which is being played at his Doonbeg golf club.

“Let him go after targets but not diesel fuel, because he’s causing a shortage of diesel fuel.” (Read more from “Trump Calls on Ukraine to Halt Strikes on Russian Diesel, Saying Attacks Causing Shortage” HERE)

Russia’s Undersea War Games Expose Nightmare Scenario For Global Internet

/0 Comments/in , /by

Russian submarines allegedly rehearsed deploying technology designed to disable critical undersea communications cables in the Arctic this spring, raising questions about how much of modern civilization would keep functioning if a global war turned the internet’s physical backbone into a battlefield.

British, Norwegian and American forces tracked and confronted the Russian vessels near Norway’s Svalbard archipelago and prevented them from completing the exercise, Reuters reported Thursday, citing two anonymous Western officials. The alleged operation involved Russia’s Main Directorate for Deep Sea Research, known as GUGI, a secretive military organization specializing in deep-sea operations.

The alleged Russian operation adds to growing concern over how vulnerable critical infrastructure on the ocean floor could be during a wider conflict, following the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines in the Baltic Sea in 2022. The pipeline explosions demonstrated the potential for underwater infrastructure to be severely damaged by sabotage, though the incident has not been attributed to Russia and investigations have increasingly focused on individuals linked to Ukraine, Reuters reported, citing German prosecutors.

An internet infrastructure expert whose research focuses on internet routing told the DCNF that the Domain Name System, or DNS, the system that translates website names into the numerical IP addresses computers use to locate one another online, is the glue holding the global information infrastructure together.

“The DNS, the name system, is dependent on the network, and while caching features heavily in the DNS, as the caches age out a connectivity cut would mean that expired data would not be refreshed and the DNS would slowly dim out and turn dark,” Geoff Huston, chief scientist at the Asia Pacific Network Information Centre, or APNIC, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
