Panic In Russia As Hundreds Of Porsches Mysteriously Shut Down

Porsche owners across Russia face mysterious immobilizations as cars shut down overnight amid fears of satellite interference or sabotage

by Stephen Rivers  December 2, 2025 at 15:43

Porsche models in Russia have suddenly stopped working nationwide.

Owners report engines dying and alarms failing without explanation.

Issue possibly linked to Porsche’s VTS satellite tracking security unit.

On Monday, December 1, hundreds of Porsche owners across Russia awoke to discover that their prized German cars had effectively turned into motionless bricks on wheels. Reports now suggest that Porsche’s own Vehicle Tracking System, or VTS, may be at the center of the mystery.

Whether the culprit is a software update gone wrong or a deliberate move from a third party, the outcome is the same. From Moscow to Krasnodar, drivers are finding themselves stranded with cars that refuse to respond.

The issue impacts Porsche models dating back to 2013, all of which have a factory Vehicle Tracking System. If the VTS loses satellite signal, it automatically activates the engine immobilizer and stops the car from working.

Rolf Group service director Yulia Trushkova told the Daily Mail that “all models and all engine types” are affected, with shops fielding waves of identical complaints.

Silence and Speculation

Panic In Russia As Hundreds Of Porsches Mysteriously Shut Down

Inside the country, speculation is already swirling. The Moscow Times cites one dealer representative who said, “It’s possible this was done deliberately.” Notably, they also admit that there is no direct evidence to support that theory at the moment.

Porsche’s Russian arm has declined to comment, and the automaker’s global headquarters hasn’t issued a statement about the situation either.

For now, mechanics are left to diagnose cars that appear perfectly healthy but refuse to fire up. Owners indicate that the failures are sudden and unpredictable. A St. Petersburg driver said his Macan fired moments after he picked up a to-go order.

Others say their cars died moments after starting up. Some have gone as far as to rip out connectors for the alarm system in an attempt to disable it altogether. Some report success in getting their car to start after removing the battery for at least ten hours.

Porsche halted new deliveries to Russia after the invasion of Ukraine, but the brand’s cars continue to circulate widely among wealthy buyers.

Now those owners are crowding service centers and tow yards, convinced that their vehicles have fallen victim to a satellite blackout or something more intentional. For now, no fix is guaranteed, and the number of stranded Porsches continues to climb across the country.

Catastrophe: Japan 30 Year Bond Hits 3.427%

Hal Turner World December 03, 2025 Hits: 21611

Something just shifted deep inside the global financial system — and almost no one is explaining what it means for you.

Japan's 30-Year LSEG Government Bond just hit a historic high yield of 3.427%.

Worse, Japan’s 10-year government interest rate just spiked to 1.84%, the highest level since 2008, jumping more than 11% in a single day.

That doesn’t sound dramatic on the surface. It is.

For 30 years, Japan was the quiet engine that kept the world’s debt machine running. Their interest rates were near zero. That meant banks, hedge funds, and governments could borrow cheap money from Japan and pour it into U.S. bonds, stocks, real estate, and everything else that now feels permanently expensive.

That cheap money kept:

Mortgage rates lower

Stock markets higher

Government borrowing easier

Credit cheap and plentiful

That era is now ending.

Bank of Japan held interest rates near zero long after every other major country had already raised rates to fight inflation. They tried to hold the system together with money printing and artificial controls.

They can’t hold it anymore.

Japan alone owns about $1.1 trillion of U.S. government debt. That makes them the largest foreign lender to the United States. But when interest rates at home suddenly become attractive again, that money is no longer guaranteed to stay in America.

At the exact same time:

Federal Reserve is losing its ability to quietly support markets

The U.S. Treasury must borrow record amounts of money to fund massive federal deficits

The U.S. government now spends over $1 trillion every year just on interest

And China — another major lender — is also pulling back

That means the people who used to finance America’s lifestyle are no longer willing to do it cheaply — or reliably.

When that happens, the costs don’t stay on Wall Street.

They flow straight to:

Higher mortgage rates

Higher car payments

Higher credit-card interest

Falling retirement accounts

Rising food, energy, and insurance costs

More layoffs and business failures

For years, the system was built on a single assumption: Money would always stay cheap forever.

That assumption is now breaking.

This is not just a Japan story. This is the story of how the entire debt-based global economy starts to strain under its own weight.

The long era of falling interest rates that shaped your job market, your home price, your 401(k), and your cost of living is over.

Most people won’t feel it all at once. They’ll feel it through tighter credit, shrinking savings, rising bills, and a constant sense that their money just doesn’t stretch like it used to.

And by the time it becomes obvious to everyone —

the damage will already be locked in.

Main Street reels as America sheds 32,000 jobs in brutal November wipeout

READ MORE: FedEx joins list of billion-dollar companies laying off workers

By BEN SHIMKUS, US CONSUMER REPORTER

Published: 09:03 EST, 3 December 2025 | Updated: 09:47 EST, 3 December 2025

America's job engine sputtered again in November. This time, small businesses are taking a hit.

Private employers shed 32,000 jobs last month, according to new data from payroll processor ADP, marking a sharper slowdown than economists expected, and the worst loss for small businesses since March 2023.

Wall Street had penciled in a 40,000-job gain. Their optimism was fueled by an October report that found that hiring actually climbed by 47,000.

But Wednesday's jobs report — which was vitally important to federal policymakers and Wall Street investors — disappointed after a surprising October rebound.

ADP is the largest payroll company in the US, issuing checks to nearly one in six working Americans.

It's the final nationwide workforce reading ahead of the Fed's December decision on a potential third interest rate cut.

Independent analysts told the Daily Mail that the results have some good and bad news.

'Hiring has been choppy of late as employers weather cautious consumers,' ADP's chief economist, Dr Nela Richardson, wrote.

'And while November's slowdown was broad-based, it was led by a pullback among small businesses.'

Companies with 50 or more workers added a net 90,000 jobs. But small businesses lost 120,000 — including 74,000 from firms with 20 to 49 employees.

Some sectors managed to keep hiring: education and health services picked up 33,000 roles, while leisure and hospitality added another 13,000.

But broad pullbacks elsewhere swamped those gains.

Professional and business services posted the biggest drop at 26,000 jobs.

Information (down 20,000), manufacturing (down 18,000), financial activities (down 9,000), and construction (down 9,000) jobs also slid.

Wage growth cooled, too. Workers who stayed in their jobs saw pay rise 4.4 percent from a year earlier — a slight dip from October's pace.

'Today's report showed a surprise loss versus expectations for a very modest gain, reiterating that the labor market continues to cool,' Bret Kenwell, an investment analyst at eToro, told the Daily Mail.

'The timing isn't ideal either, as it comes ahead of the holidays and at a time when consumer confidence is already low.'

But Kenwell said the latest report should help push America's central bank to cut interest rates for the third time in 2025.

The Fed, currently led by chair Jerome Powell, has a dual mandate to lower inflation and increase job growth through the government's borrowing rates.

Rates are used as a blunt tool, swinging higher when prices climb, and plunging when unemployment accelerates.

Lowered rates, which President Donald Trump prefers, could free up money for American consumers and businesses. That in turn boosts spending, stock prices, and 401(k) accounts.

But it could also make inflation even worse.

Central bankers have been in a difficult position at the end of the year, as inflation has steadily ticked up to three percent, a full percentage point over their goal. But job losses are continually gathering steam.

Powell said after the Fed's last decision that a cut at the upcoming meeting was 'not a conclusion –– far from it.'

Investors now see a 90 percent chance that rates will be cut during the Fed's next meeting on December 10.

'US stocks are bouncing back from the recent selloff and driving investor confidence that the Fed will cut rates this month,' Kenwell said.

'If volatility remains subdued, it could set up stocks for a nice year-end rally.'

The Unprecedented Global Debt Crisis: Why Every Major Civilization Is on the Brink of Collapse

by Samara Sterling  December 3, 2025

in Original, Videos  Reading Time: 5 mins read

The rapid rise of economic interconnectedness has brought about a chilling reality: for the first time in human history, the world’s major powers—the United States, Europe, China, and beyond—are hurtling toward collapse along the same inexorable path. This isn’t hyperbole or partisan fearmongering; it’s a pattern etched into the annals of history, a cycle of prosperity and debt that has felled empires from Rome to Britain.

As conservative commentator Glenn Beck warns in his latest video, “THIS could COLLAPSE every major civilization at the SAME TIME,” we’re not witnessing isolated declines but a synchronized global reset. With bond markets trembling, currencies fluctuating wildly, and governments drowning in red ink, the question isn’t IF but HOW this breaking point arrives—and what emerges from the ashes.

Beck’s analysis, delivered with his signature blend of historical rigor and urgent alarm, draws on centuries of evidence to outline the “debt cycle”: a predictable arc from disciplined growth to fiscal ruin. What makes this moment so terrifying? Unlike past eras, where one empire’s fall paved the way for another’s rise, no phoenix waits in the wings. China is a “paper tiger” saddled with local government debt; Europe is fractured; Japan faces a demographic implosion; and America is politically gridlocked and fiscally insolvent. The stage is set for a worldwide reckoning.

The Timeless Cycle: From Glory to Ruin

History doesn’t repeat itself, but it rhymes—and the rhyme is deafening. Beck traces the debt cycle through five stages, each illustrated with vivid examples of how superpowers sowed the seeds of their own destruction.

Stage 1: Discipline Breeds Prosperity

Every great civilization begins humbly, with fiscal restraint fueling explosive growth. Ancient Rome, rebuilding after devastating wars, enforced strict budgets, minted reliable silver coins, and enacted land reforms to bolster its middle class. The Dutch Republic transformed a mosquito-infested swamp into a global trading powerhouse by inventing modern finance—while obsessively controlling spending. Britain’s empire solidified post-Glorious Revolution with a gold-backed pound sterling that commanded trust for over two centuries. And post-World War II America? Manageable debts, a rock-solid dollar tied to gold, and unparalleled productivity catapulted it to superpower status.

The lesson? Discipline isn’t drudgery; it’s the foundation of abundance. But abundance, Beck cautions, is a seductive trap.

Stage 2: Complacency Fuels Excess

Prosperity breeds overconfidence, the illusion that good times are eternal. Nations loosen the reins, expanding entitlements and indulging in imperial overreach. Rome squandered its surpluses on “bread and circuses”—lavish public spectacles to placate the masses. France bankrolled opulent palaces, generous pensions, and endless wars with loans it could never repay. Britain, fat with empire, plunged into World War I without a second thought. America followed suit in the 1970s, severing the dollar from gold and embracing the fantasy that debt could supplant hard work.

Here, excess masquerades as compassion: political bribes in the form of unchecked spending. The Dutch derisively called it windhandel—trading in hot air, where paper promises eclipse real production. Sound familiar? Today’s stimulus checks and deficit binges are just rebranded versions of the same vice.

Stage 3: Financialization Creates Fragility

Enter the illusion of invincibility. Armed with “modern” tools like central banks and quantitative easing, leaders convince themselves they’ve conquered debt’s gravity. But math, as Beck quips, doesn’t bend to hubris. Rome debased its currency until coins held less than 2% of their original silver. The Byzantines diluted theirs into irrelevance, eroding public trust. France printed assignats—land-backed notes that soon weren’t worth the wallpaper they were printed on. Weimar Germany’s hyperinflation vaporized savings in 18 months, paving the road to extremism. Japan, post-real estate bubble, has limped along for three decades on zero interest rates. And America? Post-2008, the Federal Reserve conjured trillions from thin air, propping up a free market by shredding its principles.

The endgame? Markets lose faith in the system’s promises. Fragility isn’t a bug; it’s the feature of financial wizardry untethered from reality.

Stage 4: The Breaking Point Arrives

Debt becomes unpayable—not through inflation, default, or rollover, but through a cascade of consequences. Rome’s price controls backfired spectacularly, fracturing its economy. France in 1788 found itself shut out of credit markets. Britain ditched the gold standard in 1931 amid crisis. Weimar’s money-printing frenzy birthed monsters. Japan’s bond market is now effectively nationalized by its own central bank.

Today, we’re here—*all* of us. America’s debt-to-GDP ratio rivals wartime peaks; Europe’s fractures deepen with energy woes and migration strains; China’s local governments are buried under trillions in off-books liabilities; Japan teeters on a pension cliff. Bond yields spike, currencies wobble, and politicians fudge the numbers. Beck points to everyday inflation—grocery bills up 20%, fast food prices soaring—as the canary in the coal mine. Consumers are spending like governments: frantically, as if tomorrow’s escape hatch.

The Reset: Destruction, Then Renewal?

No debt binge ends well. History offers three brutal exits: hyperinflation that erases savings (Weimar, revolutionary France, late Rome); outright default sparking chaos (Russia 1917, Argentina’s serial implosions); or war forging a new monetary order (Napoleonic Wars birthing Britain’s gold standard; World War II yielding Bretton Woods).

Past resets were regional: Rome crumbled while others thrived; France’s Revolution midwifed the modern nation-state; Britain’s sunset illuminated America’s dawn. But this time? It’s global. No rising power lurks to scoop up the pieces. The free world and its rivals teeter together, their economies entangled in a web of mutual assured destruction.

Beck doesn’t peddle despair, though. Resets, for all their horror, clear the underbrush for renewal. Rome’s fall birthed Christendom; the French upheaval democratized governance; World War II’s rubble fueled the postwar boom. The next chapter? It’s ours to write—not in marbled halls of Washington or Davos, but in homes, families, churches, and communities. “You can’t borrow your way out of moral, fiscal, or spiritual bankruptcy,” Beck intones. The cycle warns us: choose discipline now, or force a harder lesson later.

A New Order in the Shadows

Beck closes with a provocative twist: the architects of tomorrow’s system are already at work. It’s not beholden to any one nation—no Bretton Woods 2.0 tied to Uncle Sam. Options abound, from populist surges like Donald Trump to technocratic visions from the World Economic Forum or Beijing’s iron-fisted model. We may loathe the choices, but decline favors the prepared. As Beck sees it, this isn’t the end—it’s the overture to something uncharted.

In a world where every empire syncs its downfall, the debt cycle isn’t just history; it’s prophecy. Heed it, or join the ghosts of Rome and Weimar. The reset looms. Will we rebuild better, or merely survive?

In first ever civilian talks, Israel and Lebanon confront Hezbollah's grip

Civilian representatives from Israel and Lebanon met for the first time in US-mediated discussions aimed at advancing economic cooperation. The Prime Minister's office said the sides agreed to develop ideas for economic collaboration, while stressing that the disarmament of Hezbollah remains obligatory regardless of any civilian dialogue. Lebanese diplomat Simon Karam, a Maronite Christian and outspoken opponent of Hezbollah, headed the Lebanese team in what Israeli officials described as a breakthrough compared with past negotiations.

Israel and Lebanon have launched their first ever direct talks at the civilian level to explore potential economic and other cooperative initiatives that are not tied to the ongoing military campaign against Hezbollah. This unexpected development followed a meeting in Naqoura between an Israeli team led by Dr. Uri Resnick, deputy head of foreign policy at Israel's National Security Council, and a Lebanese delegation led by Simon Karam, the former Lebanese ambassador to the US. The talks were mediated by Morgan Ortagus, President Donald Trump's envoy to the region, and included representatives of the IDF, the Lebanese Armed Forces and the UN.

The statement released by the Prime Minister's office after the meeting said that under Netanyahu's direction and as part of the ongoing security dialogue among the US, Israel and Lebanon, Resnick met Ortagus and Lebanese civilian representatives in Naqoura. According to the statement, the meeting was held in a "positive atmosphere" and the sides agreed to formulate "ideas for potential economic cooperation between Israel and Lebanon". Israel clarified that "disarming Hezbollah is a fundamental requirement that stands independently of any progress on economic issues. The sides agreed to hold follow-up discussions."

Earlier statements described the meeting as a first attempt to establish the basis for economic cooperation and a future relationship between Israel and Lebanon. Beyond the immediate discussions on monitoring the ceasefire, this was presented as the early groundwork for eventual normalization, even if actual political agreements remain distant. The process, Israeli officials say, has now begun.

These contacts mark a significant shift. During the maritime border negotiations in previous years, Lebanon, under pressure from Hezbollah, refused to send civilian officials, and the talks were conducted indirectly through the US and France and handled by military officers. Even then, Beirut participated only after Israel agreed to relinquish nearly all of the disputed maritime area. The current civilian-level dialogue is a strong indication of the decline in Hezbollah's influence over Lebanese government policy.

For Israel, this represents a policy adjustment coordinated with and encouraged by Washington. Two tracks are now separated: the campaign against Hezbollah and efforts to dismantle its arsenal, and the political process with Lebanon. Israel will continue to strike Hezbollah targets as the organization works to rebuild and rearm, while Lebanon's government continues pursuing its stated commitment to disarm the terrorist organization. Separately, Israel and Lebanon will engage in civilian talks. The US administration has given Israel a green light to continue its military actions against Hezbollah, while at the same time pressing Jerusalem to support steps that bring the Lebanese government and President Joseph Aoun closer to Washington and promote confidence building measures.

The content of the civilian talks is not yet clear. One of the primary expected avenues is cooperation related to natural gas exploration in the eastern Mediterranean, including securing offshore gas fields and the shipping lanes used by oil tankers. Agricultural cooperation may also be explored, along with mechanisms to oversee the return of residents of southern Lebanon to their homes. Many of these residents are Christians, whose return Israel views as a moderating factor compared with Shiite communities, many of whom have been Hezbollah members or supporters.

According to an Israeli political official, the dialogue is expected to lay the foundation for broad negotiations between Israel and Lebanon on all outstanding issues, including formalizing the land border and resolving disputes created largely by Hezbollah. Still, the official added that as long as Hezbollah remains active, progress on matters such as an IDF withdrawal from positions inside Lebanon or halting Israeli strikes against Hezbollah operatives and infrastructure will remain extremely difficult.

Expert Sounds Alarm on ‘Gruesome’ Christian Persecution in Syria

By Billy Hallowell

Editor

December 2, 2025

Christian leaders recently came together to send a letter to President Donald Trump, warning the commander-in-chief about the dire situation for Christians and other minority groups inside Syria.

The letter, written by Dede Laugesen, president of Save the Persecuted Christians, was delivered before Trump held a meeting last month with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, with its contents imploring the president and other U.S. leaders to act on behalf of minority factions.

Individuals like Dr. Ben Carson, author Eric Metaxas, Pastor Jack Hibbs, and many others implored Trump to press al-Sharaa on the matter. Matthew Faraci, religious freedom advisor to the National Association of Christian Lawmakers, spoke to CBN News about the effort.

Faraci, who decried the “gruesome” events unfolding inside Syria, said Trump is committed “not only to protecting Christians in Syria, but around the world.”

“What [Trump is] saying is … that ‘America First’ means that we protect Christians and we protect against Christian persecution,” he said, noting leaders want to be sure Trump extends this to Syria and the Christians under assault there.

Faraci said Trump reportedly spoke with al-Sharaa about these matters after receiving the letter and also addressed some of the disturbing background on the Syrian president.

“This is a former Al-Qaeda fighter,” he said of al-Sharaa. “He fought Americans in Mosul during the Iraq War. He was the commander of the area.”

He continued, “Then, of course, he went to Syria, joined another terrorist group and that terrorist group ended up overthrowing [Bashar] al-Assad.”

Faraci and others are working hard to try and push for humanitarian aid and assistance in Syria.

“I’ve come to the conclusion that religious freedom is the most sacred human right of all,” he said. “Think about that. If you don’t have religious freedom, what do you have? Religious freedom is the canary in the coal mine. If you don’t have religious freedom, underneath it, you’re going to have terrorism.”

British Councils Using Fleets of Drones To Snoop on Residents

by Raw Egg Nationalist

November 30th, 2025 1:11 PM

Local councils in the UK are purchasing fleets of drones to monitor local residents from the air. More than 60 local councils across the UK now have staff who are certified to operated unmanned aerial vehicles

The news has caused alarm among civil-liberty groups in the UK

Local councils in the UK are purchasing fleets of drones to monitor local residents from the air.

More than 60 local councils across the UK now have staff who are certified to operated unmanned aerial vehicles.

A dozen more councils have approached the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) for “guidance” on drone regulations.

The true number of city, borough and district councils that have trained drone pilots may be significantly larger than official data suggest, because the CAA’s data only records pilots who disclose that their employer sponsored their training.

One west London borough, Hammersmith and Fulham, plans to use drones to combat fly-tipping and other forms of antisocial behavior, after a report found that local police do not have enough officers to tackle these offences.

At present, the largest council fleet of drones is held by Sunderland council, in the northeast of England.

Sunderland council has 13 drones, eight qualified staff and two more in training.

The news has caused alarm among civil-liberty groups in the UK.

Jake Hurfurt of Big Brother Watch said: “There may be a role for drones in helping councils monitor flooding or conduct land surveys, but local authorities must not use the technology as spies in the sky.

“Britain is already one of the most surveilled countries on Earth. With CCTV cameras on street corners, we do not need flying cameras too. Councils must make sure that they do not use this technology for intrusive monitoring of their citizens.”

Last year, British police arrested around 10,000 people for “offensive” statements online.

By contrast, Russia arrested less than a third of that number—3,253 people.

One in Six People Is Foreign-Born in the US Population

One in six people are now foreign-born except, unlike previous waves of people, most of these are invaders who don’t share our values, are coming to take us over, commit crimes, or live off free stuff. Far left Democrats invited them in for free stuff and set up sanctuaries for criminals.

They knew what they were doing. It was never for humanitarian reasons for the ringleaders. They had a lot of people fooled, and still do.

The foreign-born share of the US population is now higher than any other point in US history.

Higher than the "Great Wave" of immigration in the early 20th century. It’s now time for another period of restricted immigration.

We Pay Up to 40% of Somalia’s GDP

FinCen sent out an alert that remittances over $2,000 must be flagged.

US remittances play a crucial role in Somalia’s economy, accounting for 25% to 40% of the country’s GDP. A lot of the money comes from Minnesota taxpayers and a lot goes to terrorists like al-Shabaab.

This significant contribution is made possible by the Somali diaspora, who send approximately $1.3 billion annually to their relatives in Somalia.

The funds are used for various essential needs, including food, water, education, and healthcare. However, the system that facilitates these remittances is under threat due to US regulations and the closure of bank accounts by US banks, which has undermined the confidence of Somali-Americans in the US government and endangered the lives and livelihoods of millions of Somalis.

The people who don’t come close to contributing and those that do. It’s just a fact.

China's Real Estate Collapse Sends Local Debt To Record $18.9 Trillion

by Tyler Durden

Authored...

Almost 20 years ago, when the Lehman/AIG collapse and the ensuing global financial crisis sent the world into a brief but acute depression, it was China's massive debt-fueled growth dynamo that kick started the world economy and lifted the globe out of what would have been a lost decade - if not worse. The one trade off to this historic kickstart: China ended up doubling its total debt, which then continued growing at an exponential rate until the covid collapse sent China's property sector - the biggest asset of its massive middle class - into a tailspin, and sparked a historic economic crisis. Only this time, because its total debt was already at 350% of GDP, Beijing no longer could wave a magic debt wand, inject a few trillions in credit, and make it all go away. Instead, the housing market has been in steady decline for the past 5 years and if anything, the decline has accelerated now that China's Vanke - the last remaining state-backed property giant - is on the verge of collapse.

Unfortunately for China, which has done an admirable job of shoving all its economic woes under the rug while pretending it is growing at a immutable 5% year in and out, it's about to get worse.

As Japan's Nikkei reports, China's local government debt continues to balloon as the prolonged, 5-year-long and counting, real estate slump has led to slumping income from property sales, pushing local government bond issuance for the year to a record high.

The total owed by local governments and the local government financing vehicles (LGFV) that fund their projects now sits at an estimated 134 trillion yuan ($18.9 trillion), which suggests that total public debt to GDP is far above 200%... and rising (by comparison in the US it is 100%... and rising). Add another 200% in private sector debt, and you can see why China debt problem is even bigger than that of Japan. It's also what, according to Rabobank's Michael Every, underlines China’s structural necessity to maintain capital controls and a vast, neo-mercantilist trade surplus (i.e., China will continue dumping goods and exporting deflation as the alternative means game over).

China'real estate collapse has left local governments reliant on debt due to being unable to sell off property.

And while China's record low interest rates may cover up and put the problem off temporarily, it will also draw out deflation further, further depressing growth, leading to even more debt, and so on as the deflationary debt vortex expands.

"We've set aside 500 billion yuan for local governments," said China's Finance Ministry said in an October notice, explaining that it had approved additional debt expansion.

The funds are to be used to reduce local government debt and unpaid bills, as well as for investment projects.

"Right now, local governments are focusing on issuing bonds, placing them quickly and realizing their benefits as soon as possible," said Li Dawei, who leads the ministry's new debt management department.

Issuance of local government bonds this year totaled over 10 trillion yuan as of the end of last month. This exceeds the total for all of last year - 9.7 trillion yuan - and has already set a record for the largest amount in a single year. The outstanding balance of local government bonds has reached 54 trillion yuan.

Multiple factors are behind the increase. The biggest one is the drop in local government revenues resulting from the neverending real estate market slump. The value of property sold by local governments in January-October totaled just under 2.5 trillion yuan. In 2021, that value was over 8.7 trillion yuan for the full year.

"Over 10% of properties to be sold received no bids because there were no buyers," said You Zipei, an analyst at Zhongtai International Securities. You says the market is adjusting further, and expects the total value of property sales for 2025 to be about 3 trillion yuan, a more than 5 trillion yuan decline from the peak.

Another reason local governments are issuing more bonds is hidden debt. Hidden debt refers to money raised through means such as corporate bonds issued by local government financing vehicles, or investment companies owned by local governments.

There is no precise data on the balances of these LGFV debts. The total of all debt with interest issued by roughly 4,000 LGFVs sat at 87 trillion yuan at the end of last year, according to Chinese data provider DZH. Adding this to the 47 trillion yuan in local government bonds brings the total to 134 trillion yuan, or just under $19 trillion.

The International Monetary Fund estimated LGFV debt in China at 65 trillion yuan in 2024. While there are a range of estimates, the general view is that local governments in China have between 60 trillion yuan and 80 trillion yuan in off balance-sheet debt.

A company can survive even with large debts as long as it is making money, but LGFVs have low profitability, with nearly 10% seeing losses. Only 3% of LGFVs have a return on equity over 4%.

Sure enough, while total net profit for LGFVs for the year ended December 2024 was around 550 billion yuan, they received double that, or more than 1 trillion yuan, in subsidies. In other words, without constant funding from Beijing, China's regional economies would implode.

This means that nearly 50% of those LGFVs were in the red when subsidies are excluded. Considering the projects they fund are low profitability infrastructure projects, these entities will face a long road to paying down their debts.

In spite of their massive debts, LGFVs can continue to operate by banking on implicit guarantees from the government and low interest rates resulting from prolonged deflation. Meanwhile, the debt hole is only getting bigger: Xi Jinping's government last fall approved the issuance of an additional 10 trillion yuan in local government bonds to transfer LGFV debt to local governments. The government has a strong desire to avoid a financial crisis brought on by LGFVs, or anyone else for that matter as economic collapse in the middle of a trade war with Trump would be catastrophic for Xi's reputation.

The average yield on corporate bonds issued by LGFVs under the city of Beijing this year is 2.1%, down 1.4 percentage points from 2021. The drop is comparable to that seen for national government bonds. The finances of local governments are being supported by monetary easing on the part of the People's Bank of China in an effort to prop up the sluggish economy.

While deflation does help kick the debt problem down the road, it also makes the issue ultimately harder - if not impossible absent a devastating crisis - to solve.

The Domar condition is one indicator for determining fiscal stability. The basic idea is that fiscal sustainability is unlikely to be compromised as long as the nominal rate of economic growth exceeds the nominal interest rate.

"With China's nominal growth rate headed downward to the 3% range, and its nominal interest rate is just under 2%, the gap is closing," said Yusuke Miura at think tank NLI Research Institute. And unless the PBOC pulls a Japan and unleashes Negative Rates thanks to massive QE, the countdown to China's next mega crisis is on.

The majority of China's government bonds are denominated in yuan. With the country's large current account surplus, local government bonds are not likely to run out of buyers in the near future. Yet China's government is well aware that its fiscal situation is getting worse. It has started refraining from making big outlays and there is a growing possibility that deflation due to slack demand will drag on.

JERUSALEM, Israel – The United Nations Relief and Works Agency, known as UNRWA, detailed the scope of its work in Gaza on Tuesday. Evidence has emerged that the organization works closely with the Hamas terror group.

UNRWA's report claims that it has rehabilitated its education system and now serves nearly 50,000 children in its schools inside Gaza.

David Bedein, founder of the Near East Center for Policy Research, recently made a presentation to the newly formed U.S. CENTCOM Command Center. He told CBN News what is inside the agency's core doctrines.

“I told them about the curriculum," Bedein told CBN News. "The first curriculum ever to promote first-degree murder as the focus, and the delegitimization of the Jews in the land of Israel – the importance of getting rid of them. And this all in their textbooks.”

Bedein also asserts that UNRWA and Hamas have an incestuous relationship.

“I'm saying that they're the one and the same – UNWRA and Hamas are one and the same, with the knowledge of everyone," Bedein stated.

On the regional front, Axios reported on Tuesday that the recent meeting between President Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was "difficult" and "tense" behind the scenes.

While the two leaders flattered each other in public, the report revealed that the president was angry and disappointed with the crown prince over the issue of normalization with Israel.

Trump pushed Saudi Arabia to join the Abraham Accords, but bin Salman insists that normalization with Israel must come, along with an irreversible path to a Palestinian state with a hard deadline.

However, after October 7th, 2023, Israeli leaders have said the two-state solution is a non-starter.

Bin Salman also argued that Saudi public opinion is overwhelmingly anti-Israel after the two-year war in Gaza. President Trump promised to sell F-35 jets to the Saudis, made it a non-NATO ally, and agreed to help with a civilian nuclear program.

Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office announced Wednesday that officials have identified the latest hostage remains from Gaza. Terrorists killed Dror Or on October 7th in Kibbutz Be'eri, one of the hardest-hit Israeli communities. The terrorists also killed his wife, Yonat, and kidnapped two of his children, Alma and Noam.

The return of Or's body leaves the remains of just two more hostages inside Gaza.

CBN Israel has directly supported the Or family throughout the ordeal, including the orphaned children, now being raised by their grandparents.

Donald Trump Signs Executive Order To Launch Artificial Intelligence Initiative Called ‘The Genesis Mission’ Creating A Digital Tower Of Babel

Published 3 days ago

By Geoffrey Grider on November 25, 2025

President Trump has launched The Genesis Mission to create an AI super-creature that sounds and looks like a digital Tower of Babel in advance of the Mark of the Beast

When President Donald J. Trump stood behind the Resolute Desk and signed the executive order launching what his administration calls The Genesis Mission, the world watched a seemingly routine announcement about science, technology, and competitiveness. But those paying attention — those who “have ears to hear” — saw something far more profound. Something prophetic. Something that looks less like an economic stimulus package and more like the blueprint for a digital Tower of Babel in the closing moments before the catching away of the Church.

“And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.” Genesis 11:4 (KJB)

The Genesis Mission is being heralded as the largest mobilization of American scientific resources since the moon landing. In reality, it appears to be the most comprehensive attempt yet to fuse artificial intelligence, federal datasets, national laboratory supercomputers, and automated robotic experimentation into a single, unified system of knowledge and control. A system capable of compressing scientific discovery — what once took years — into mere hours. A system whose goals sound eerily similar to the global technological regime prophesied to rise in the time of Jacob’s trouble.

“This order launches the “Genesis Mission” as a dedicated, coordinated national effort to unleash a new age of AI‑accelerated innovation and discovery that can solve the most challenging problems of this century.” read the whole order

The mission’s stated purpose is to accelerate discovery across biology, nuclear fusion, quantum systems, climate modeling, materials science, and more. In other words — to take the raw building blocks of God’s creation and place them under the predictive authority of artificially intelligent systems capable of designing, simulating, and executing scientific experiments without human oversight.

If that doesn’t sound like man attempting to rewrite the rules of creation, nothing does.

This is not merely research. This is re-creation — man attempting to simulate, automate, and accelerate the mechanisms of life and nature. It is scientific ambition dressed up as innovation, but it is spiritually identical to the rebellion that first appeared in Eden and climaxed at Babel.

The Abraham Accords, the Genesis Mission, is anyone else seeing the same pattern that we’re seeing?

The Genesis Mission Is A Digital Nervous System For Federal Power

For the first time in history, the U.S. government is attempting to unify:

all federal scientific datasets

all national laboratory supercomputers

all major AI models

all simulation environments

all robotic experiment platforms…into one coordinated AI-driven infrastructure.

This creature will be a living system with:

nerves (data pipelines),

organs (labs and supercomputers),

brain (federal AI models),

hands (robotic labs),

eyes (sensors and datasets).

This isn’t a program. It’s the creation of a national digital organism — a living, thinking, learning system whose purpose is to accelerate discovery, prediction, and control. If you’ve ever read Revelation, then you know what’s going on.

“And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Revelation 13:15 (KJB)

A Technological Run-up To The Time Of Jacob’s Trouble

The Bible tells us that before the Day of the Lord:

knowledge shall be increased (Dan. 12:4)

nations will clamor for power (Matt. 24:7)

deception and signs will multiply (2 Thess. 2:9)

a global system of control will emerge (Rev. 13)

How do you generate the technological scaffolding for such a system? You build something like the Genesis Mission. Of course, it will take all the ‘usual suspects’ like Palantir, Blackrock, DARPA, Bill Gates, Oracle, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and all the rest of the tech titans to make this a reality. But isn’t that the whole point and purpose behind Stargate?

Faster discovery.

Centralized systems.

Integrated data.

Autonomous decision-making.

National mobilization.

Global potential.

“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:17 (KJB)

Pieces falling into place, one executive order at a time. As we often remind our readers at NTEB: prophecy does not require the willing participation of world leaders. God uses kings, presidents, nations, armies — and yes, technologies — to move history toward its appointed end. Revelation 17:17 says that God will put it into their hearts to fulfill His will, and that’s exactly what we see taking place right now.

The ayatollahs' dilemma: Why Tehran fears another 12-day war

More than a year after the pager attack, the Middle East's geopolitical map has been redrawn, leaving Iran in a precarious position as it grapples with internal crises and the potential for an overwhelming Israeli response to any provocation.

by Danny Zaken

Published on 11-25-2025 09:30 Last modified: 11-25-2025 09:35

The geopolitical shifts that have occurred in the year and two months since the pager attack have redefined the balance of power in the Middle East. A senior official told Israel Hayom that Iran, Hezbollah, and likely the Houthis are not expected to directly respond to the assassination of Hezbollah Chief of Staff Haytham 'Ali Tabataba'i.

According to the official, Tehran faces only difficult choices because it risks a harsh Israeli counterattack and simply cannot absorb more military losses like those sustained during the 12-Day War. The official noted that despite this restraint, some voices within Iran still believe a response to Israel's actions is necessary, perhaps executed by the Houthis or through a terrorist attack targeting Jewish or Israeli interests in Europe or Latin America.

This cautious assessment stands in contrast to the combative statements coming from Tehran, even before the death of Hezbollah Chief of Staff Haytham 'Ali Tabataba'i, and earlier reports that Iran had largely replenished the surface-to-surface missile stockpile lost during Operation Rising Lion. For example, a report in The New York Times disclosed that Iran is enhancing its air defense network and planning for a massive launch capability of up to 2,000 simultaneous missiles should another conflict erupt. The Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps previously published a statement declaring, "The Axis of Resistance and Hezbollah have the right to respond at the appropriate time, and it will be a painful blow".

Esmaeil Baghaei, the Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman, stated that Israel's behavior is worsening regional security and will result in serious consequences. Though Iran is working to rebuild its air defense capabilities – which were nearly destroyed in the war – and reportedly received aid from China, Israeli estimates suggest this will not significantly challenge Israel's absolute control of Iranian airspace.

The critical decision regarding a Hezbollah response rests with the ayatollahs in Tehran, not Beirut. Hezbollah's standing has suffered significantly following the losses incurred during the pager operation and the elimination of its leadership, including Hassan Nasrallah, who ranks second only to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Iran's hesitation is driven by multiple factors : First, since Israel delivered severe blows to Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Iran itself, another conflict of that magnitude is unacceptable. Second, the international environment, marked by full US support and partial European support for Israel, eliminates the possibility of helpful diplomatic maneuvers. Third, Iran is experiencing a particularly dire economic and infrastructural crisis, characterized by rampant inflation, currency collapse, a severe fuel shortage, frequent power outages, and a water crisis. In fact, the severity of the water crisis led President Masoud Pezeshkian to propose evacuating Tehran and relocating to a temporary capital.

Tehran is currently in its sixth consecutive drought year and recorded its driest autumn of the century, reporting "zero drops of rain". After the first 55 days of the current water year, water reserves had hit a 60-year low.

Contacted via social media, S., a Tehran resident, described having running water for only a few hours each day, dangerously poor water quality causing widespread diseases and infections, and mineral water sold at exorbitant prices in stores and markets. The resident added that while authorities have discussed bringing in water tankers from the north, no substantial action has been taken.

Northern Iran is simultaneously battling a major ecological catastrophe – a fire that has been burning for weeks in the Hyrcanian Forests, a "World Heritage Site" and the world's oldest living ecosystem. Iranian forestry experts are placing blame on the government, alleging negligence and intentional, malicious damage to the forest lands. The fire has resulted in large clouds of smoke, ash, and soot, which are causing severe air pollution.

This compounding crisis has given rise to the idea of Iran's "quiet disintegration" as a functional state. Sogand Fakheri, an Iran Desk analyst at the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs, said that "quiet disintegration" is a concept frequently discussed in Iranian domestic media.

"However, it seems the disintegration is not quiet, the government is not functioning, and the repeated focus on war propaganda and the 12-Day War either ignores or at least belittles the situation in the country," she elaborated, adding, "The fires and the funds being wasted in the wrong places also hurt the citizens' standard of living and even put them in real danger." As economic, social, and environmental hardships continue to mount, internal reports of local distress and protests surface from Iran, but these are often suppressed from the wider public due to media censorship and restrictions. This raises the question of whether the institutional and social decay is happening "quietly" because it is not being fully expressed – or because parts of the system are struggling to recognize it in real-time.

Sagiv Asulin, a senior researcher at the JCFA and an Iran expert, accounted for the contrast between the aggressive rhetoric and Iran's domestic paralysis : "The Iranians are the world champions in word games, negotiation, and haggling in the Middle Eastern and global bazaar, so there is a big difference between what they say and what will materialize. They are willing to warm the atmosphere with belligerent statements, but in their current condition, they might play a game on the edge, but nothing beyond that, and therefore the answer to the question of whether they will initiate an actual attack – is almost certainly no".

Asulin confirmed that Iran is working hard to rebuild its air defense and missile stockpiles because missiles are the most effective weapons they have, especially since the nuclear project was severely damaged. The researcher added that Iran recognizes this as Israel's soft underbelly and plans to reinforce it for the next conflict.

Ultimately, both Asulin and the senior official agree that Iran intends to delay the next conflict for as long as possible to allow itself time to recover, wait for more favorable conditions, and improve its readiness.

Suspected terrorist accused of stabbing 3 people 'was on mission to kill Christians'

A suspected terrorist reportedly told his mum he was on a mission to "kill Christians".

A suspected terrorist accused of stabbing three people in Madrid before attacking police, shouting "Allahu Akbar", reportedly told his mum he was on a mission to “kill Christians.” The 18-year-old Spaniard of Moroccan origin remains in hospital after being tasered and shot by anti-terror police when he holed himself up in a flat following the triple stabbing and violently resisted attempts to arrest him.

A judge at Spain’s central criminal court, the Audiencia Nacional, is now investigating the incidents on Saturday afternoon as suspected Islamic terrorist crimes. Overnight, Spanish news website El Español said officers had told the judge the teenager - now under police guard at Madrid’s Gregorio Marañón Hospital - had told his mum his mission “was to kill Christians and he had to cleanse himself.”

Other reports today said detectives were investigating whether the suspect - who has so far been identified only by his first name of Mohammed - had consumed synthetic drug Captagon, which is known to have been used by ISIS fighters in Syria to make themselves feel invincible.

Footage published late on Monday (November 24) showed the teenager being stretchered out of the property in the Madrid neighbourhood of Puente de Vallecas, where he was taken into custody on Saturday afternoon (November 22). As well as being accused of trying to attack officers with a large knife he was carrying, he is also said to have recited verses from the Quran before being overpowered.

The siege ended around 4.30pm on Saturday, with the terror suspect being shot four times by police after their Taser guns failed to stop him, with one bullet perforating his lung and another hitting him in the kidney.

The drama leading up to the shooting began to unfold around 2pm on Saturday in a street called Martin Alvarez Street in Puente de Vallecas when police received reports that a man had stabbed three people, including an elderly lady and a 40-year-old male, who had suffered a two-inch knife wound to his chest.

Jobs apocalypse gathers steam as Americans lose 13,500 positions each week

READ MORE: Apple cuts dozens of jobs in uncharacteristic move

By BEN SHIMKUS, US CONSUMER REPORTER

Published: 10:42 EST, 25 November 2025 | Updated: 10:46 EST, 25 November 2025

Pink slips are piling up. One of the only real-time reads on the economy says the bleed is speeding up.

ADP, the payroll-processing giant, reported Tuesday that private companies have shed 13,500 jobs a week since late October — a steep jump from the roughly 2,500 weekly losses it flagged in its last update.

The spike comes as Washington scrambles to reboot its own labor-data machinery after America's longest government shutdown stalled multiple key economic releases.

With the Bureau of Labor Statistics' cornerstone jobs report now delayed until mid-December, ADP's unofficial tally has become one of the few clear windows into the labor market.

And for workers, the numbers hardly feel like a shock.

Layoff tracker Challenger, Gray & Christmas recorded 153,074 job cuts in October alone — a staggering 175 percent jump from last year and 183 percent from September.

It was the sharpest October spike since 2003, when companies were reeling from the dot-com collapse.

Major employers have added to the drumbeat.

Over the past three months, Amazon, Apple, UPS, Intel, Verizon, AT&T, Walmart, Target, Ford, and GM have all made headlines for slashing white-collar staff — a broad corporate reset that shows little sign of slowing.

Those job losses are starting to creep into the government's latest reporting.

Last week, the BLS released its September jobs report weeks later than expected. While the topline jobs figure outperformed expectations, the data found that more Americans are claiming unemployment checks.

And the timing is creating an unusually tricky puzzle for the Federal Reserve.

The central bank is still trying to tame inflation while keeping the labor market healthy, but unemployment has been inching up while inflation has drifted back to around three percent this year.

The bank's main tool, benchmark interest rates, is its most effective instrument for helping employees find work and keeping prices down.

Typically, higher interest rates cool consumer prices, while lower interest rates elevate job openings.

But both unemployment and inflation have continually crept upward this year, making the Fed's decision-making process extremely murky.

'There is no risk–free path,' Powell said after cutting rates in October.

Complicating matters further: the shutdown forced the BLS to skip several key updates on jobs and prices, leaving Fed officials heading into their December 9 and 10 meeting without the data they typically rely on.

Even with the gaps, several policymakers have signaled they're ready to cut interest rates again.

It's a shift that's already pushed Wall Street to expect a reduction next month.

Yesterday, stocks rebounded after a wobbly performance last week on optimism of an impending rate cut.

Bangladesh Quake Kills Nine, Injures Hundreds

The 5.5-magnitude quake struck at 10:38 am (0438 GMT) near the city of Narsingdi, about 33 kilometres (16 miles) from Dhaka.

By Nosakhale Akhimien

A powerful earthquake struck outside Bangladesh’s crowded capital Dhaka, on Friday, killing at least nine people and injuring more than 300, authorities said.

The 5.5-magnitude quake struck at 10:38 am (0438 GMT) near the city of Narsingdi, about 33 kilometres (16 miles) from Dhaka, according to the US Geological Survey.

The tremor sparked fear and chaos, with many in the Muslim-majority nation of 170 million people at home on their day off.

AFP reporters in Dhaka saw people weeping in the streets while others looked shocked.

The interim government’s press office said at least nine people were killed and more than 300 people injured.

At least 14 buildings were damaged, and fire broke out at a power station but was later brought under control.

Interim leader Muhammad Yunus expressed in a statement his “deep shock and sorrow over the news of casualties in various districts”.

He added that the government was taking “all necessary measures”.

Nine people were taken to hospitals in Dhaka with serious injuries, according to the government’s health department.

A witness told AFP that masonry from an eight-storey building in Dhaka had fallen onto a busy road below.

“Many people had gathered at the butcher” when the rubble fell, said Sakib Hossain, 50, who rushed out after hearing a loud bang.

“I saw vans carrying injured people,” he added.

Mohammad Sharif, who was in a queue to buy meat, said the debris fell from above on people standing ahead of him.

“A child suffered a serious injury on his neck and died immediately,” he told AFP.

The shaking lasted for 26 seconds, according to the Bangladesh Meteorological Department, which recorded the magnitude as 5.7.

“The situation is being closely monitored, and all relevant departments have been directed to immediately go to the field to assess any possible damages,” Yunus said.

The 85-year-old Nobel Peace Prize winner was selected to lead the country after a mass uprising toppled the government last year. Elections are slated for February 2026.

The tremors on Friday were felt as far as the Indian city of Kolkata, more than 325 kilometres (about 200 miles) away from the epicentre.

AFP reporters there saw people fleeing offices and homes after the sudden jolt.

“I felt tremors and my bed moved… I rushed out of my room,” said Sumit Dutta, 66.

There were no immediate reports of casualties or significant damage in India.

Tropical Cyclone Fina brings 205km/h to Australia's north, now category 3

12:24 am on 23 November 2025

Australia's north is bracing as Tropical Cyclone Fina has intensified to a category three system and its winds have begun to be felt in Darwin.

ABC News said serious damage was being felt, including increased reports of trees going down across Darwin, blocking roads.

A number of suburbs had lost power, across Darwin, Palmerston, rural areas and the Tiwi Islands.

Emergency shelters had been opened in Darwin.

Locals were expecting a heavy cleanup day after the cyclone passes, on Sunday, but for now authorities called on residents to focus on staying safe, and indoors.

'Long night' ahead for Darwin

The Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) is warning Darwin residents are in for a "long night" with weather conditions set to deteriorate "quickly" and "significantly" this evening as Severe Tropical Cyclone Fina sweeps through.

The cyclone system reached category three strength in the Van Diemen Gulf on Saturday morning, before crossing the southern tip of Melville Island on Saturday afternoon.

It has since re-entered the gulf, the latest BOM advice showed, and was expected to pass just north of Darwin late on Saturday.

In an update during the afternoon, the BOM said winds were reaching gale-force in Darwin and were predicted to increase further in coming hours, with the Tiwi Islands already experiencing gales.

NT Police Acting Assistant Commissioner James O'Brien said for people in Darwin, the worst of the weather was still ahead.

"We will expect to see some damaging winds from about 6pm to about 12 midnight tonight," he told ABC Radio Darwin. "It will get worse a bit later on."

He said about 500 people were in shelters across the Top End.

Meteorologists issue cyclone update

Australia's Bureau of Meteorology released its advice for Severe Tropical Cyclone Fina at 7:16pm Australian CST on Saturday (10:46pm NZT). Here's what it said:

Cyclone Fina is still a category three, moving west southwest at 8 kilometres per hour

Fina is 45km north northwest of Darwin and 30km south southeast of Wurrumiyanga

Very destructive wind gusts to 205 km/h are occurring along the south coast of Melville Island

Winds are reaching gale-force at Darwin and may possibly increase further tonight

The very destructive core is likely to pass just north of Darwin this evening

Destructive gusts may extend to the Darwin region in the next few hours and possibly further to Dundee Beach tonight

Read the full advice from BOM here.

Albanese government poised to 'support' with clean up

In Darwin, the sky is getting dark and the wind is getting louder.

And further South, Australia Federal Minister for Emergency Management Kristy McBain said the Albanese government was poised to help the NT government with its post-cyclone recovery.

"The Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements make provision for the Northern Territory to activate immediate financial assistance to assist local governments and communities to recover from disasters," she said.

"We are working with the Northern Territory government to provide support, including any requests for DFRA assistance they may be needed."

McBain said Australian Defence Force personnel had been stationed to assist with the clean-up, with resources available through the National Stockpile.

Ethiopian volcano erupts for first time in 12,000 years

Ash clouds from Hayli Gubbi volcano sent drifting across the Red Sea toward Yemen and Oman

A volcano in Ethiopia’s north-eastern region has erupted for the first time in nearly 12,000 years, sending thick plumes of smoke up to 9 miles (14km) into the sky, and across the Red Sea toward Yemen and Oman.

The Hayli Gubbi volcano, located in Ethiopia’s Afar region about 500 miles north-east of Addis Ababa near the Eritrean border, erupted on Sunday for several hours.

A local official, Mohammed Seid, said there were no casualties, but the eruption could have economic implications for the local community of livestock herders.

Seid said there was no previous record of an eruption by the Hayli Gubbi volcano, and that he fears for the livelihoods of residents.

“While no human lives and livestock have been lost so far, many villages have been covered in ash and as a result their animals have little to eat,” he said.

The volcano, which rises about 500 metres in altitude, sits within the Rift Valley, a zone of intense geological activity where two tectonic plates meet.

Ash clouds from the volcano drifted over Yemen, Oman, India and northern Pakistan, the VAAC said.

The Afar region is prone to earthquakes and a resident, Ahmed Abdela, said he heard a loud sound and what he described as a shock wave. “It felt like a sudden bomb had been thrown with smoke and ash,” he said.

In videos shared on social media, which AFP could not immediately verify, a thick column of white smoke could be seen rising.

The Smithsonian Institution’s Global Volcanism Program said Hayli Gubbi has had no known eruptions during the Holocene, which began about 12,000 years ago at the end of the last ice age.

Simon Carn, a volcanologist and professor at the Michigan Technological University, confirmed on Bluesky that Hayli Gubbi “has no record of Holocene eruptions”.

Why Are Volcanoes That Have Been Dormant For Ages Suddenly Roaring To Life All Over The World?

November 25, 2025

A lot of people out there continue to deny what is happening even though it is taking place right in front of their eyes. With each passing week, we continue to get more evidence that our planet is becoming increasingly unstable. All over the globe, volcanoes that have been dormant for a really long time are now roaring to life. Many will continue to mumble “everything is fine” and go on with their daily lives as if nothing has changed, but if there is a major eruption of a supervolcano and the world is plunged into a “volcanic winter” that lasts for multiple years, nobody is going to be able to ignore the apocalyptic famine that happens as a result.

On Sunday, a volcano in Africa that has been dormant for all of recorded history suddenly erupted…

A volcano in Ethiopia’s northeastern region erupted for the first time in nearly 12,000 years, sending thick plumes of smoke up to nine miles into the sky, the Toulouse Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC) said.

The Hayli Gubbi volcano, located in Ethiopia’s Afar region about 500 miles northeast of Addis Ababa near the Eritrean border, erupted on Sunday for several hours.

That wasn’t supposed to happen.

But it did.

One local resident says that it felt like a bomb had gone off…

The Afar region is prone to earthquakes and a resident, Ahmed Abdela, told the AP he heard a loud sound and what he described as a shock wave.

“It felt like a sudden bomb had been thrown with smoke and ash,” he said.

Could this eruption have anything to do with the larger geological changes that are now transforming the continent?

We are being told that Africa is slowly but surely being ripped into two pieces…

Africa is undergoing a slow-motion geological transformation that will eventually split the continent in two, according to new research analyzing magnetic data from the East African Rift.

Scientists predict that over the next five to 10 million years, Africa will separate into distinct landmasses—one in the west and a smaller eastern portion—divided by a newly formed ocean.

Of course it isn’t just in Africa where very strange things are occurring.

In Afghanistan, a volcano that has supposedly been dormant for “hundreds of thousands of years” is now showing plenty of signs of life…

A volcano that has been dormant for hundreds of thousands of years could be gearing up for a massive explosion, according to new research.

Scientists have measured signs of unrest at the Taftan volcano in eastern Iran, near the Afghanistan border, despite no eruptions in the last 700,000 years, according to a paper published earlier this month in Geophysical Research Letters.

Why the sudden change?

Nobody can seem to explain that.

In Greece, over 25,000 earthquakes have rocked Santorini in 2025…

More than 25,000 earthquakes rattled the Greek islands earlier this year, sending residents fleeing and prompting tourists to reconsider their vacation plans. According to a new AI-powered study, the pulsing movement of a massive underground magma pool was behind the mysterious earthquake swarm.

The international study, led in part by scientists from University College London (UCL) and published Thursday in the journal Science, used artificial intelligence to analyze the seismic data from between Santorini and nearby Amorgos. Researchers found that the tremors were not the result of a typical fault slip but were instead caused by rebounding sheets of magma slicing through the Earth’s crust about 7 miles (12 kilometers) below the seafloor. This deep magma activity triggered bursts of quakes, some approaching magnitude 5.

The last time Santorini erupted was in 1950.

Why is it so active now?

There are many more examples that I could give you, but I want to focus on the one that I am the most concerned about.

The Campi Flegrei supervolcano in southern Italy has been getting shaken by thousands upon thousands of earthquakes this year, and experts are concerned that all of this seismic activity could be building up to something really big…

In Greek and Roman mythology, the Campi Flegrei volcano is depicted as the opening to the underworld.

Its prehistoric eruptions blocked out the sun, turning summer into winter and covering Europe and Russia in thick volcanic ash. Now this powerful seismic giant near Naples is stirring again, shaking the ground in a way that scientists say it hasn’t for centuries.

“Two of the most recent earthquakes are the strongest we’ve ever seen,” said Giovanni Macedonio, the director of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology in Naples.

Why is the ground around the Campi Flegrei supervolcano being shaken to an extent that hasn’t been seen in centuries?

Nobody seems to know.

As I have detailed in previous articles, a full-blown eruption of the Campi Flegrei supervolcano could potentially cause a “volcanic winter” that could last for multiple years.

Global temperatures would absolutely plummet, a lot less sunlight would reach our planet, and it would become exceedingly difficult to grow anything.

That would particularly be true in the northern hemisphere.

All of a sudden there would be a severe lack of food all over the globe, and billions of people could potentially starve to death.

So this is a threat that we should be taking very seriously.

There is one last thing that I wanted to mention before I close this article.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian is publicly admitting that the capital of Iran will need to be moved due to a chronic lack of water…

A major capital city in the Middle East will have to be relocated due to water shortages and overcrowding, the President has said.

Iranian leader Masoud Pezeshkian has said Tehran is no longer ecologically sustainable, and the 9,700,000 residents would have to move.

‘People said it was impossible, but now it’s no longer optional,’ Pezeshkian said. ‘We can’t keep adding population and construction here. Expansion is possible, but the water problem cannot be solved.’

There is talk that large numbers of people may need to be evacuated from Tehran quite soon if more rain doesn’t start to fall.

Rainfall in Iran has been way below normal for an extended period of time, and right now the country is enduring the worst drought that it has experienced in about 60 years…

Rainfall across much of the country is about 85 per cent below average, with the worst drought conditions in about 60 years taking hold.

Decades of mismanagement of natural resources, including the construction of too many dams and a lack of enforcement when it came to drilling illegal wells, have combined with inefficient agriculture and adverse weather conditions to lead to the crisis.

Of course it isn’t just Iran that is dealing with such issues.

All over the world, supplies of fresh water just keep getting tighter and tighter.

This is an enormous problem, and there are no easy answers.

Our world is changing at a pace that is difficult to comprehend, but most people out there are still expecting conditions to “return to normal” eventually.

Economic Collapse Is Accelerating

November 25, 2025

The economic collapse is accelerating. Take a look…

Consumer Confidence Collapse

November 25 (King World News) – Peter Boockvar: The November consumer confidence index from the Conference Board fell to 88.7 from 95.5, below the estimate of 93.3 and the 2nd weakest print since January 2021.

Both main components were down m/o/m. One yr inflation expectations held at 5.7% on average with a median read of 4.8% vs 4.6% in October.

The answers to the labor market questions were mixed. Jobs Plentiful fell 1 pt to 27.6 and that is the 2nd lowest since March 2021.

Hard To Get though fell .4 pts. Expectations for the labor market looking out 6 months deteriorated as those that see ‘more jobs’ fell 1.2 pts to the lowest since April. Income expectations weakened as well.

Spending intentions fell for autos, homes and major appliances. The ‘home’ category was particularly noteworthy because it fell to the lowest since April notwithstanding the drop in mortgage rates.

Politically, the Conference Board said “Confidence fell among consumers of all political stripes, with the sharpest retreat among independent voters.”

Not surprisingly, this is what continues to be the wet blanket on consumer confidence, “Consumers’ write in responses pertaining to factors affecting the economy continued to be led by references to prices and inflation, tariffs and trade, and politics, with increased mentions of the federal government shutdown. Mentions of the labor market eased somewhat but still stood out among all other frequent themes not already cited.”

Finally of note, “Assessments of current financial situations collapsed to the lowest level since August 2024, when a confluence of negative events stoked a brief financial market selloff and US recession concerns.”

Bottom Line

My bottom line, inflation and the ever rising cost of living continues to be the main consumer pain point. This VERY MUCH complicates the job of the Federal Reserve. I know it’s easy to think that the Fed should cut rates in response to an economy that seems more fragile and with a softening labor market but if that is the case because many consumers are stressed with inflation, shouldn’t inflation then be the main focus of the Fed? In other words, don’t we need low and stable prices first before we can be confident of a stronger economy and labor market? No easy answers here for them.

High Home Prices Keep Sales Collapsed

Pending home sales in October rose 1.9% m/o/m after a flat read in September and that was above the forecast of a slight .2% rise.

The NAR said “The Midwest shined above other regions due to better affordability, while contract signings retreated in the more expensive West region.” Sales in the Northeast were up by 2.3% m/o/m and by 1.4% in the South vs a 5.3% increase in the Midwest and a 1.5% decline in the West.

Bottom line, we know the housing market is trying to unfreeze here with the drop in mortgage rates and more supply seemingly coming to market but pricing still remains particularly tough for the first time buyer because of the cumulative 50% rise in prices over the past 5 years.

Manufacturing Continues To Collapse

Following negative prints seen in the Philly and Dallas manufacturing indices and the positive one for NY, the Richmond survey fell to -15 from -4.

Bottom line, the manufacturing recession unfortunately continues on in November.

Africa’s Great Divide: Tectonic Forces Are Slowly Tearing the Continent Apart

by Kevin Hughes, Natural News November 25, 2025

Africa is slowly splitting into two distinct landmasses—western and eastern portions—due to tectonic forces, with a new ocean forming between them over the next 5-10 million years.

The 4,000-mile-long East African Rift is the primary fracture zone, widening at 5-16 mm per year, accompanied by volcanic activity and earthquakes.

Continental rifting in the Afar region (where three tectonic rifts converge) is stretching and thinning Earth’s crust until it ruptures, forming new oceanic crust—similar to past supercontinent breakups like Pangea.

Researchers analyzed 1960s magnetic field data, revealing “magnetic stripes” that confirm Africa and Arabia began separating tens of millions of years ago—a process still ongoing.

The rift mirrors Earth’s history of continental drift, offering insights into planetary transformation, though the full split will take millions of years to complete.

(Natural News)—Africa is undergoing a slow-motion geological transformation that will eventually split the continent in two, according to new research analyzing magnetic data from the East African Rift.

Scientists predict that over the next five to 10 million years, Africa will separate into distinct landmasses—one in the west and a smaller eastern portion—divided by a newly formed ocean.

The study, published in the Journal of African Earth Sciences, reveals that Africa’s tectonic breakup is already underway, driven by the same forces that separated Arabia from Africa tens of millions of years ago. Researchers from Keele University examined magnetic field data collected in the late 1960s, uncovering evidence of ancient seafloor spreading between Africa and Arabia.

“These findings give a unique perspective on how our planet is constantly changing and shifting right beneath our feet,” said Professor Peter Styles, a geologist at Keele University and co-author of the study.

The East African Rift, stretching over 4,000 miles from Jordan to Mozambique, is the primary fracture zone where this separation is occurring. The rift, averaging 30-40 miles wide, is gradually splitting Africa like a zipper, accompanied by volcanic activity and earthquakes.

The birth of a new ocean

The process, known as continental rifting, involves the stretching and thinning of Earth’s crust until it ruptures, creating new oceanic crust. The study focused on the Afar region, where three tectonic rifts—the Main Ethiopian Rift, the Red Sea Rift and the Gulf of Aden Rift—converge in a rare triple junction.

Using airborne magnetic surveys from 1968 and 1969, researchers detected “magnetic stripes” in the crust—similar to tree rings—formed by periodic reversals of Earth’s magnetic field. These stripes confirm that Africa and Arabia began separating tens of millions of years ago and that the process is still ongoing.

“The strong magnetic signature here appears to be evidence of slow but continuous continental rifting—where the crust is being stretched and thinned like soft plasticine—until it ruptures, marking the birth of a new ocean,” the study explains.

A slow but inevitable split

While the idea of Africa splitting apart may sound dramatic, the process is happening at a glacial pace—just 5-16 millimeters per year in the northern part of the rift.

“Regarding timescales, this process of Africa being torn apart will take several million years before it is completed,” said Dr. Emma Watts, a geochemist at Swansea University, who was not involved in the study.

When the split is finalized, the larger western landmass will include countries like Egypt, Algeria, Nigeria, Ghana and Namibia, while the eastern portion will consist of Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania, Mozambique and much of Ethiopia. Massive bodies of water, such as Lake Malawi and Lake Turkana, will also be divided by the widening rift.

A reminder of Earth’s dynamic nature

The phenomenon underscores the ever-changing nature of Earth’s geology. Similar rifting events have shaped the planet’s continents over billions of years, including the breakup of the supercontinent Pangea 130 million years ago, which created today’s oceans.

BrightU.AI‘s Enoch explains that Pangea was the last supercontinent on Earth, existing approximately 250 to 175 million years ago during the late Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras. The supercontinent began to break apart around 175 million years ago, leading to the formation of the modern continents we see today. It is a significant geological formation that has shaped the planet’s geology, climate and biodiversity.

The Afar region remains one of the most geologically active areas on Earth, offering scientists a rare glimpse into the early stages of continental breakup.

“With this publication, the magnetic data from the 1968 Afar Survey has been resurrected, we hope, from an undeserved obscurity,” the researchers concluded.

While humans won’t witness Africa’s full separation in their lifetimes, the study serves as a humbling reminder that the ground beneath us is far from static—continents drift, oceans form and Earth’s surface is in a perpetual state of transformation.

For Emergency Preparedness, Don’t Forget the Meds

For now, Africa remains whole—but its slow, inevitable division has already begun. Watch the video below about Africa splitting into two continents via the East African Rift Valley.

American becomes world's first person to die from virus strain never seen in humans before

By LUKE ANDREWS, US SENIOR HEALTH REPORTER and JAMES GORDON, US NEWS REPORTER

Published: 22:30 EST, 21 November 2025 | Updated: 23:59 EST, 21 November 2025

A Washington state resident has become the first person in the world to die from a strain of a virus that has never been seen before in humans.

The patient, an older adult with underlying conditions, was hospitalized with bird flu earlier this month after suffering from a high fever, confusion and severe breathing difficulties, officials said.

Lab tests confirmed the patient was infected with H5N5, a strain of bird flu previously detected in animals but never before recorded in people.

The person who died from the virus had a backyard flock of mixed domestic birds.

They were first treated by doctors in Grays Harbor County, about 100 miles west of Seattle, before being transferred to an unnamed hospital in King County in the Seattle area, for specialist care.

Before dying they were described as being 'severely ill'.

'The risk to the public remains low. No other people involved have tested positive for avian influenza,' the Washington State Department of Health said in a statement.

'Public health officials will continue to monitor anyone who was in close contact with the patient for symptoms to ensure that human-to-human spread has not occurred. There is no evidence of transmission of this virus between people.'

Further details about the patient, including their name, gender, age, and treatment, were not revealed.

It was not clear how the individual was infected, but officials said it was likely linked to exposure to wild or domestic birds.

Avian influenza was detected in the patient's backyard poultry flock, making it the likely cause of the infection.

Two of the birds in their flock died from an unidentified illness a few weeks ago, although the rest of the birds currently remain healthy.

Officials have followed up with individuals who had contact with the patient and tested those who had symptoms. There were no further cases of bird flu detected as of Friday, officials said.

It is possible to become infected with the virus after being exposed to saliva or droppings from infected birds or handling the body of a bird that died from the virus.

Where the strain could be determined, all previous human cases have been infected with the H5N1 strain.

Experts said the appearance of this strain in humans showed the virus's 'unpredictable' evolution. There is currently no evidence, however, that this strain is more infectious or severe in humans than other strains of the virus.

The case marks the first bird flu infection detected anywhere in the US in at least eight months and the first recorded in Washington state this year.

Since the bird flu outbreak began in January 2022, a total of 71 people have been infected, and one individual, a person in Louisiana, has died. Only four cases have been detected so far this year.

Officials have stressed, however, that the risk to the public remains low. Dr Beth Lipton, the state's public health veterinarian, said in a press conference: '[H5N5] is not a new strain or completely new virus. It is just the first time we know of that it has infected a person.'

Officials at the Washington State Department of Health revealed the infection with a new strain of the virus at a press conference on Friday.

Dr Angela Rasmussen, a virologist in Canada, warned on X: 'It's not H5N1, it's H5N5, but that isn't a relief to me. It's a reassortment that put someone in the hospital. This is unpredictable.

'I hope epidemiologists are investigating to assess who else might have been exposed, so appropriate outbreak investigation and control can be applied.'

Dr William Schaffner, an infectious diseases expert in Tennessee, told Newsweek: 'Infection with H5N5 bird flu virus likely is a rare one-off event that does not have widespread implications for the general public.'

Since the bird flu outbreak began in 2022, most patients have been in either California, which recorded 39 confirmed or probable bird flu cases, or Washington, where there were 15 confirmed or probable bird flu cases.

In most cases, infections have been linked either to exposure to infected domestic poultry or dairy cows, which have also been infected by the virus.

In wild and domestic birds, bird flu has now been detected in every state in the US since January 2022.

An estimated 174million wild and domestic birds are estimated to have been affected, while more than 1,000 dairy herds have also been infected.

Since September this year, it has struck 7million farmed birds nationwide including 1.3million turkeys, leading to concerns that there may be a shortage for thanksgiving.

Experts warn that infections with bird flu are more common at this time of year because wild birds, which may be carrying the virus, migrate, potentially spreading the virus to new areas.

There remain concerns that the virus could spread to and learn how to spread between humans, which could spark a new outbreak similar to the Covid pandemic.

The CDC says online that the risk to the public from bird flu remains low.

'While the current public health risk is low, CDC is watching the situation carefully and working with states to monitor people with animal exposures.

Nigerian Gunmen Abduct Over 200 Christian Children, 12 Teachers In Boarding School Attack

by Tyler Durden

Authored...

Armed men attacked a Catholic boarding school in northcentral Nigeria's Niger state in the early hours on Friday, abducting 215 students and 12 teachers, according to Daniel Atori, a spokesperson to the Niger state chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria.

"I have just got back to the village this night after I visited the school where I also met with parents of the children to assure them that we are working with the government and Security agencies to see that our children are rescued and brought back safely," Atori said in a statement.

The attack and abductions took place at St. Mary’s School, a Catholic institution in the Agwara local government’s Papiri community, said Abubakar Usman, the secretary to the Niger state government. He neither disclosed the number of students and staff abducted, nor who might be responsible for the attack. -AP

"We don’t know what is happening now, because we have not heard anything since this morning," said Dauda Chekula, 62, whose four grandchildren were among the abductees. "The children who were able to escape have scattered, some of them ran back to their houses and the only information we are getting is that the attackers are still moving with the remaining children into the bush."

The abduction is the latest in a spate of attacks on Christians in Africa's most populous country, and happened just days after 25 schoolgirls were abducted in a neighboring state.

While no description has been given for the attackers, the schoolgirls are suspected to have been taken by 'gangs of bandits.'

As Susan Crabtree of RealClearPolitics writes:

The timing and nature of the attack placed the fate of Nigerian Christians in stark relief. On Monday, in the early hours of the morning, a group of gunmen attacked a girl’s boarding school in northwestern Nigeria, kidnapping 25 girls, many of them Christian. The attack killed the school’s vice principal, Malam Hassan Makaku, who tried to block the door to the girl’s dormitory with his body.

The gunmen’s assault on the school took more than 20 minutes and failed to prompt any intervention from government security forces located at a checkpoint not far from the school.

The attack also took place amid new scrutiny and calls to action by President Trump. The president in late October vowed to stop the slaughter of Nigerian Christians, whom Muslim terrorist groups, including Boko Haram and Faluni militants, the Islamic State of West Africa Province, as well as armed bandits, have targeted and slaughtered by the thousands in recent years.

The abduction of the girls served as a reminder of former first lady Michelle Obama’s failed hashtag campaign to rescue 276 mostly Christian girls kidnapped by Boko Haram from a school in Chibok, Nigeria, in 2014. A decade later, 82 of the girls remain missing, and a United Nations investigation found that only 37% of schools across Nigeria have any warning system to detect threats of violence and armed attacks.

The deadly attack on the school also came the same week U.S. officials planned to highlight the plight of persecuted Christians in Nigeria at the United Nations and in Congress.

Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz, singer Nicki Minaj, and religious freedom advocates gathered in New York Tuesday and joined a panel hosted by Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner. Rev. Gabriel Makan, a pastor from northern Nigeria, and Sarah Makin, former senior advisor on religious freedom in President Trump’s first administration, joined the panel to call for renewed diplomatic engagement and stepped-up actions from the Nigerian government.

Waltz, Minaj, and the other witnesses chronicled the loss of girls into what they fear is a life of sex slavery, the burning of churches, and beheadings of pastors. Entire villages, Waltz said, wake to gunfire because “they dare to commit the crime of calling Jesus their Lord, [and] people go to jail under blasphemy laws for simply wearing a cross.”

For years, religious freedom advocates have called on the U.S. government to address the slaughter of Christians in Nigeria. Trump, in his first term, designated Nigeria a “Country of Particular Concern,” but President Biden reversed that decision. In late October, Trump once again redesignated Nigeria as a CPC and vowed to do everything in his power, including have the U.S. military come in “guns blazin’,” to stop the violence.

“Protecting Christians is not about politics – it is a moral duty,” Waltz said Tuesday. “We need voices that pierce the silence we have heard from the international community, that humanize the statistics we keep hearing, and demand accountability.”

“Religious freedom means we can all can sing our faith regardless of who we are, where we live, and what we believe,” Minaj told the panel. “But today, faith is under attack in way too many places. In Nigeria, Christians are being targeted, driven from their homes and killed. Churches have been burned, families have been torn apart, and entire communities live in fear constantly, simply because of how they pray.”

New Jersey GOP Rep. Chris Smith in previous Congresses introduced bipartisan legislation calling for more action to stop what he considers a Christian genocide in Nigeria. On Thursday, Smith will lead a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on Trump’s renewed call for action.

Christians make up nearly half of Nigeria’s population of 200 million, but they are the victims of the vast majority of the attacks. Today, Nigeria is the most dangerous place in the world to be a Christian, according to leading religious freedom advocates.

The World Index of Christian Persecution states that Nigeria is where 89% of Christian killings throughout the world took place over the last several years. According to a report by Open Doors, a watchdog that tracks Christian persecution, attacks against Christians in Nigeria are on the rise, with 7,000 Christians dying in the first eight months of this year, up roughly 2,000 from recent years.

The Biden administration attributed the slaughter of Christians in Nigeria, which make up nearly half the population, not to religious persecution but to a conflict over resources exacerbated by climate change. Open Doors and other advocates ardently disagree about the main motivation, although most groups involved believe the conflict isn’t just religious in nature but also involves conflicts over power and control over land and resources because Christians own most of the farming areas.

Kidnapping, which helps fund Islamist terrorist groups, is big business for abductors in the lawless areas of northern Nigeria. More than 20,000 people have been abducted in Nigeria from 2019 to 2023, according to Open Doors. Roaming bandits target people wo will pay ransoms, and they’ve learned that Christians and religious leaders will respond with higher payments than others.

For these reasons, some groups, including the Vatican, have pushed back on the narrative that the slaughter of Christians is primarily religious persecution. According to Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s secretary of state, the root causes are “social” in nature rather than fully religious. The Trump administration rejects that assessment, arguing it’s a war on Christians by mainly Muslim extremist groups.

Regardless of the cause, the impact is alarming. Nigeria remains the world leader when it comes to the killing of Christians. The question now: What can the Trump administration do about it?

Trump, in his late October Truth Social post, vowed U.S. military action if the Nigerian government fails to take immediate action. Such a development, if it involved sending U.S. troops into Nigeria, would likely not only anger Trump’s isolationist MAGA base but could prove ineffective against roving bands of militants and terrorists in such lawless regions.

Nigerian President Bola Tinubu, who is Muslim, pushed back against Trump’s threat of military action, instead calling for non-military assistance from the U.S. and interested parties “to deepen cooperation and protection of communities of all faiths.”

Tinubu, who was elected in 2023 and faces reelection in 2027, is viewed as a far more honest broker than his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari, a Muslim who shared his heritage with the Faluni ethnic group responsible for most of the attacks on Nigerian Christians. Tinubu’s wife is a Christian, which likely has tempered his approach.

A senior State Department official told RealClearPolitics that Trump is keeping all options on the table but noted that there is a “whole suite of options” the administration is considering, including serious economic sanctions. The official also noted the geographic complexity of the problem because in the northeastern area of the country the bad actors are Boko Haram and ISIS, while in the Middle Belt it’s Fulani militants.

The key to Tinubu’s reelection is managing “this delicate religious balance,” the official added.

“This is an opportunity for the Nigerians to show that they share this principle [of religious freedom], and they’re willing to take action on this for the benefit of our people,” the official said, noting that it requires the Nigerian government to increase its “prioritization of this issue” and “allocate resources appropriately.”

While Tinubu appears open to Western assistance to crack down on the attacks, the real problem lies with the flow of firearms to different lawless regions and corrupt funds to the local governors of the different states, several of whom are in league with the extremist groups responsible for the violence, according to a source on the ground in Nigeria. Many of those firearms, the source said, are flowing into Nigeria from Arab states, including Saudi Arabia.

Trump this week gave Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman a lavish welcome at the White House and even defended him over the 2018 killing of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi by Saudi agents, which U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded the crown prince approved. The White House’s renewed U.S. -Saudi partnership brings new hope to ending regional tensions with Iran and cementing the Israeli-Hamas peace deal.

But any talks of U.S. weapons sales to Saudi Arabia should also include pledges to lead an effort to stop the sales of firearms to Nigerian terrorists and militants, critics argue.

U.S. officials are planning to host a senior Nigerian delegation in Washington at the end of this week to get a better idea of short- and long-term goals and any sticking points.

“The flow of illicit weapons is just magnifying the problem there, so it’s one of the key factors that we’re going to look at, especially in the Middle Belt piece of this when we’re talking about ISIS and Boko Haram,” the State Department official said. “How these Fulani ethnic militias, which the Nigerians claim are just farmers – how they end up with heavy artillery to conduct these raids is a fundamental question.”

The State Department is in the process of conducting a review of all U.S. aid to Nigeria, including security cooperation and humanitarian and economic assistance.

“Our preferred option for them is to recognize the seriousness of the situation and act accordingly, in good faith with us, so we can all see results, and we don’t need to discuss any of these punitive aspects,” the official said.

18 Christian leaders arrested in China amid crackdown on churches

By Christian TodayFriday, November 21, 2025

Leaders of a Chinese house church have been arrested for purportedly “illegally using information networks” in what looks to be part of a broader crackdown by the CCP on non-state-sanctioned Christian denominations.

This latest incident occurred at Zion Church in Beihai, Guangxi Province, where Senior Pastor Ezra Jin Mingri was among the 18 arrested.

They could be held in pre-trial detention indefinitely or receive prison sentences of up to three years, according to Christian Solidarity Worldwide.

Zion Church is among the largest unofficial churches in China, boasting at least 5,000 members. In 2018, Beijing officials closed down the church’s main building after it refused to install CCTV cameras.

Scott Bower, CEO of CSW, condemned the arrest of Pastor Jin and other Zion Church leaders. He said they had "been targeted solely for the peaceful exercise of their religious beliefs."

“We call on the Chinese Communist Party to release these individuals immediately and without condition, and to cease its harassment of churches and religious groups that choose not to register with the CCP in order to practice their religion or belief without undue interference and surveillance," he said.

According to Open Doors, which monitors anti-Christian activity across the world, China has recently begun cracking down on unregistered churches. In September, it was reported that 70 Christians had been detained, with some being arrested during church services.

Accusations included “fraud,” “running an illegal business,” or “organizing unlawful meetings.” In at least one case, church members responsible for managing the collections were accused of financial wrongdoing, despite no complaints from within the church, Open Doors said.

A local partner for Open Doors said of the situation, “Due to the recent crackdown, our church has come to a standstill. More than 80 groups within the house church movement have ceased meeting. Of the original 14 churches, only a few remain.”

California rattled by rapid succession of earthquakes with shaking felt hundreds of miles from epicenter

By STACY LIBERATORE, US SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY EDITOR

Published: 10:38 EST, 24 November 2025 | Updated: 11:53 EST, 24 November 2025

California was shaken early Monday as a series of earthquakes struck in quick succession, raising concern in the seismically active region.

At least seven tremors have been reported, ranging in magnitude from 1.1 to 4.1, with the epicenter near The Geysers.

The larger 4.1 magnitude earthquake hit first, detected at 7.08am PT (10.08am ET), and the rest were likely aftershocks, according to the US Geological Survey (USGS).

Residents as far south as San Francisco reported shaking in the region, following the larger quake.

The Geysers in the state is a large geothermal field in the Mayacamas Mountains, spanning Sonoma, Lake and Mendocino counties, which harnesses underground steam to generate electricity.

Although it is called The Geysers, the area does not have actual geysers but rather steam vents called fumaroles, a name given by early settlers who misunderstood the natural phenomenon.

The Geysers geothermal field in northern California lies atop a network of faults, including the Bartlett Springs Fault Zone and the Healdsburg–Maacama Fault system.

Smaller faults beneath the geothermal site have made the area prone to frequent earthquakes, and experts say some tremors may be triggered by the region's geothermal energy operations, raising concerns about the potential for stronger shaking.

The Geysers Geothermal Field, sprawling across roughly 45 square miles, sits about 72 miles north of San Francisco.

Home to 18 geothermal power plants, the region is no stranger to tremors, as frequent minor earthquakes rattle the area as a direct result of the operations used to harness steam for electricity, according to the USGS.

Workers and nearby residents can often feel the quakes beneath their feet.

Seismologists have said that these earthquakes are triggered by a combination of factors.

As steam and heat are extracted from underground reservoirs, the surrounding rock contracts, creating stresses that can set off tremors.

Adding to the seismic activity, reclaimed water is pumped back into the steam chambers.

The stark temperature difference between the cold water and the superheated rock can further destabilize the underground environment, producing even more quakes.

'It is possible that a magnitude 5 could occur, but larger earthquakes are thought to be unlikely. For a larger earthquake to occur, a large fault must exist,' the USGS said, and 'at the Geysers, no such continuous fault is known to exist.'

California is the third-most seismically active US state after Hawaii and Alaska.

Data shows that so far this year, California has experienced more than 14,000 tremors, compared to Alaska, which is nearing 60,000.

However, California experiences more earthquakes that cause damage due to its higher population and extensive infrastructure.

A Russian contingent of over 120 military personnel is present in Venezuela, led by a Russian general - Budanov

Kyiv • UNN

November 23 2025, 10:28 AM • 11940 views

The head of the Main Intelligence Directorate, Kyrylo Budanov, reported that a Russian contingent of over 120 military personnel is present in Venezuela under the command of Colonel General Oleg Makarevich, who commanded the 'Dnipro' group of forces and organized the undermining of the Kakhovka HPP.

A Russian contingent of over 120 military personnel is present in Venezuela, led by a Russian general - Budanov

Russia continues to maintain its military contingent in Venezuela and expands cooperation with the regime of Nicolás Maduro. Currently, there is a Russian contingent of over 120 servicemen in the country, led by Colonel General Oleg Makarevich, who commanded the "Dnipro" troop group during the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. It was Makarevich who organized the undermining of the Kakhovka HPP in June 2023. This was stated by the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Kyrylo Budanov, in a comment for The War Zone, as reported by UNN.

Details

There is currently a Russian contingent of over 120 servicemen in Venezuela. They are led by Colonel General Oleg Makarevich, commander of the so-called operational group "Equator" of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. He is in charge of training Venezuelan security forces. They act as military advisors and instructors. This includes training infantry, special forces, UAV operators, as well as working with intelligence and communications.

- said Budanov.

According to him, the rotation of Russian forces in Venezuela has been ongoing for many years and is not a response to the increased American military presence in the region.

Makarevich himself and about 90 Russians are stationed in Caracas, the rest - at facilities in Maracaibo, La Guaira, and on Aves Island.

Russian units are likely to remain in Venezuela, even if the US decides on a силовий scenario. Russia will try to talk directly with Washington, hiding behind the presence of its military in the country

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro appealed to Russia, China, and Iran to strengthen his country's worn-out military capabilities and obtain assistance, requesting defensive radars, aircraft repairs, and possibly missiles amid relations of a possible conflict with the United States.

Report: Iranian scientists met Russian experts to advance nuke program

Iranian scientists secretly met Russian military experts to advance nuclear weapons research, the Financial Times reports.

Israel National News

Nov 20, 2025, 5:45 AM (GMT+2)

Iran nuclear scientists Iranian Nuclear Program Financial Times

Iranian regime-linked scientists made a secret visit to Russia late last year, reportedly to advance nuclear weapons research, the Financial Times revealed Wednesday, citing documents and sources familiar with the matter.

The visit, which took place November 7-11, 2024, was organized by a front group for Iran’s Organization of Defensive Innovation and Research (SPND), the military body Western officials believe is behind Iran’s nuclear weapons efforts.

According to the report, the delegation met with Russian military experts and representatives of Laser Systems, a sanctioned company that develops laser technologies for civilian and military use. It was the second such visit in 2024.

In February 2025, Andrei Savin, a former technical director at Laser Systems and now a professor at Russia’s Baltic State Technical University, traveled to Tehran, according to the Financial Times report. There, he met with SPND-linked officials and representatives of DamavandTec, another front company for SPND. The U.S. sanctioned DamavandTec and its CEO, Ali Kalvand, in October, accusing them of attempting to acquire components “applicable to the development of nuclear explosive devices.”

Nicole Grajewski of the Carnegie Endowment told the Financial Times the meetings are “strong evidence that Russia was assisting Iran in its nuclear weapons-related research,” and said the activities appeared to be approved “at a high level on the Russian and Iranian sides.”

A previous Financial Times report detailed an August 2024 trip by Kalvand and four associates to Moscow, where they entered on diplomatic passports and visited a Russian institution producing dual-use technologies relevant to nuclear weapons.

One of the scientists, Soroush Mohtashami, is an expert in neutron generators - components used to trigger nuclear detonations. In a letter to Russian scientist Oleg Maslennikov, Kalvand wrote that the trip aimed “to discuss and agree on technical and production aspects of electronic device development” and “to consider general potential paths for expanding scientific co-operation.”

Poll: nearly half of Israelis support Saudi normalization

According to the survey, 48% of Israelis support a normalization deal with Saudi Arabia even if it would require the United States to sell F-35 fighter jets to the kingdom.

i24NEWS

A new i24 NEWS poll conducted by the Direct Polls institute, headed by Tzuriel Sharon, shows strong public interest in a potential normalization agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia, as talks between Riyadh and Washington accelerate at an unprecedented pace.

According to the survey, 48% of Israelis support a normalization deal with Saudi Arabia even if it would require the United States to sell F-35 fighter jets to the kingdom.

Another 42% oppose such an agreement, while 10% remain undecided.

The findings come just days after a high-profile meeting between Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman reignited momentum around a possible breakthrough.

The poll also assessed public views on establishing a commission of inquiry into the events of October 7 and the ensuing war. Asked whether they would back a commission headed by former Supreme Court justice Yossef Elron, 48% of respondents expressed support, 36% opposed the idea, and 16% had no opinion.

The survey was carried out on November 18, 2025, among a representative sample of 510 Israelis aged 18 and over, with a margin of error of ±4.4%.

The results highlight a public divided but deeply engaged with Israel’s strategic direction—both regarding regional diplomacy and accountability for the failures surrounding October 7.

JAPAN JUST DETONATED THE GLOBAL CARRY TRADE — AND MARKETS HAVE 60 DAYS TO REPRICE

Hal Turner World November 19, 2025 Hits: 15350

Japan just dropped a $110B stimulus bomb, and global markets immediately felt the shockwave. The "Carry-Trade" just got smashed out of existence. The fallout will be everywhere, in everything, at the same time.

Bond yields jumped to 1.73%.

The US–Japan rate gap collapses from 3.5% → 2.4% in just ten months.

And with that, the math behind $1.2 trillion in global carry trades just broke.

The Trade That Carried the World

For 30 years, hedge funds ran the same play:

Borrow yen at 0% → Buy US stocks, Emerging Market debt, real estate, crypto → Pocket the spread.

With leverage? That became 40% annual returns for doing nothing.

But now the spread is gone — and after hedging, the trade is outright negative.

This isn't sentiment. It’s arithmetic.

Why This Happened

Japan’s stimulus isn’t creating inflation. It’s creating yield.

• Money velocity has collapsed to 1.42, down 29% since 2000

• Consumers save stimulus instead of spending it

• AI slashes service inflation by ~40%

• China exports deflation with industrial overcapacity

Prices stay flat, but bond yields rise because debt supply explodes.

Japan must issue $110B → buyers demand higher yields → debt service becomes a monster.

At 263% debt-to-GDP, every +1% in yield costs Japan $26B/year.

This forces yields higher… without inflation.

The Result

The interest-rate advantage vanishes.

Borrowing in yen to buy dollars now loses money.

So every institution running this trade faces the same choice:

Exit or bleed out.

Over $500B in carry positions must unwind.

No panic — just legal fiduciary requirement.

But the second wave is worse.

Japan Pulls Capital Home

Japanese institutions hold $3.2T in foreign assets.

For the first time in decades, domestic bonds actually pay something.

Capital repatriates.

The world’s biggest creditor becomes a seller, not a buyer.

When $800B of global liquidity exits, markets don’t drift down — they gap down until forced sellers meet any buyer at any price.

Here’s What the Models Show

• US equity multiples compress 21x → 16x

• Nikkei drops 12% as a stronger yen crushes exporters

• Emerging markets lose ~30% of external funding

• Credit spreads blow out 100 bps

Liquidity disappears.

Not because of recession — because the firehose of cheap yen is shutting off.

Enter the Fed

The Fed ending Quantitative Tightening on Dec 1 isn’t stimulus — it’s surrender.

They see Japanese capital evaporating.

The only buyer left for Treasuries… is the Fed itself.

This is fiscal dominance.

This is the regime change everyone ignored.

Deflation vs. Liquidity

Japan’s move proves the new global equation:

Technology deflates faster than government spending inflates.

The collision doesn’t create balance — it creates chaos.

Bottom Line

This isn’t a forecast.

This is the mechanical outcome of a yield shift in the world’s most overleveraged bond market.

Prepare for the regime break — or risk becoming part of the fallout.

This will hit everything, everywhere, at the same time..... $500 Billion in Japan "Carry-Trade" must now be sold-off or the Interest costs will break the people who borrowed Yen at Zero percent, to buy US Stocks. Five-Hundred Billion has to come out of the US markets ! ! ! ! !

Doctors warn of a highly infectious virus spreading 'out of control' right now

READ MORE: How common virus triggers devastating autoimmune conditions

By SADIE WHITELOCKS, US SENIOR HEALTH REPORTER

Published: 11:42 EST, 17 November 2025 | Updated: 11:59 EST, 17 November 2025

The US is seeing an unusually sharp rise in cases of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD), with doctors across the country reporting numbers far higher than those seen in recent years.

Although HFMD is typically a mild childhood illness that peaks in the summer and early fall, this year it is spreading faster than usual and affecting more people than expected.

States including Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, Ohio, Kansas and West Virginia are reporting significant increases in infections, with health experts estimating that there could be up to 1 million cases nationwide in 2025.

New York City also reported concern on Staten Island, where clinicians identified several HFMD cases this summer with the numbers set to grow.

In Maryland cases are four to five times higher than at the same time last year, according to Dr Allison Agwu of Johns Hopkins University.

'This year, [cases seem] to be out of control,' she told the HuffPost.

Pediatricians in Kansas, Wisconsin, Tennessee and Virginia have reported comparable surges to Dr Agwu AND Some physicians say this is one of the worst spikes they have witnessed.

Traditionally, there are over 200,000 cases of HFMD in the US each year, but if the predictions are correct, the number of patients this year could be close to 1 million.

Dr Edith Bracho-Sanchez of Columbia University revealed in August that she had seen more HFMD cases this summer than in the previous decade, and Dr Natasha Burgert of Kansas said her practice was reflecting the same nationwide trend.

HFMD most commonly affects children under five, particularly those in group settings such as daycare centers, nurseries and schools.

However, doctors are also seeing infections in older children and adults, especially individuals with weakened immune systems.

Because the CDC does not track HFMD directly, exact national figures are not available.

HFMD is highly contagious and caused by viruses in the enterovirus family, most often coxsackievirus A16.

It spreads easily through respiratory droplets, saliva, stool and the fluid inside blisters. It can also spread through contaminated surfaces, toys and shared objects.

In many cases, early symptoms resemble a common cold, with fever, sore throat and a runny nose.

Within days, patients typically develop painful mouth sores, usually located at the back of the throat, along with red bumps or blisters on the hands and feet.

These rashes may peel as they heal.

Some individuals experience vomiting, and very young children can occasionally develop neurological complications, such as inflammation around the brain, which require urgent medical attention.

For most people, the illness lasts about a week, although more severe mouth ulcers can prolong recovery to ten to 14 days.

Doctors note that HFMD tends to surge in cycles, and this year's wave is particularly intense.

Dr Matthew Thomas, a pediatric infectious diseases specialist at WVU Medicine Golisano Children's in West Virginia, told the Economic Times: 'Some years you'll see a lot of cases, like we're seeing this year, and then it kind of fades away, where you don't hear about it for a while.'

Several factors may be contributing to the rapid spread. Seasonal mixing at camps, swimming pools, theme parks and back-to-school environments increases opportunities for transmission, and warm, humid weather can help the virus survive on surfaces and in the environment.

Meanwhile in the fall, once children return to classrooms, daycares, and nurseries, the virus has a tendency to continue its spread.

Water parks have drawn attention as potential hotspots; in July, a Philadelphia water park temporarily closed after a child who had visited later tested positive for HFMD.

If water is not properly treated, virus particles can be swallowed and cause infection.

There is no vaccine and no antiviral medication for HFMD. Treatment focuses on easing symptoms with over-the-counter pain relievers and ensuring adequate hydration, particularly for children who find swallowing painful due to mouth sores.

Medical care is recommended if a child or adult cannot stay hydrated, has prolonged fever, struggles to eat, or shows signs of serious complications such as extreme fatigue or breathing difficulties, though these cases are rare.

Doctors emphasize that prevention relies on consistent hygiene practices.

Frequent hand-washing with soap and water, using alcohol-based hand sanitizers when washing is not possible, avoiding touching the face, cleaning shared surfaces, and staying away from sick individuals all reduce the risk of infection.

Children diagnosed with HFMD should remain home for at least seven days to avoid spreading the virus to others. With cases rising across the country, health experts are urging families and caregivers to remain vigilant and take precautions to limit transmission.

Wall Street in 'extreme fear' as stocks plunge AGAIN amid fears world's biggest company is a dud

READ MORE: Fed bigwig exits as Trump clinches win in his rate-cut push

By BEN SHIMKUS, US CONSUMER REPORTER

Published: 15:53 EST, 17 November 2025 | Updated: 21:57 EST, 17 November 2025

A fresh wave of selling hit Wall Street on Monday — the latest blow to Americans’ retirement savings as stocks and crypto continue their steep November slide.

The Dow lost 1.2 percent, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq lost just under one percent.

Bitcoin slid nearly three percent below $92,000, continuing a painful 25 percent slide since hitting records in early October.

The sell-off has dragged CNN's Fear & Greed Index sharply lower. The gauge — which tracks seven indicators including market momentum and stock price strength — dropped to 14 out of 100 by late Monday.

It's the weakest reading since April, when President Donald Trump imposed higher-than-expected tariffs.

Back then, the index bottomed out at 3 before surging to 78 in July as markets set a string of new records.

On Monday, tech stocks were among the hardest hit, as traders nervously brace for Nvidia's earnings on Wednesday.

Wall Street is hoping for another blockbuster quarter from the world’s only $5 trillion company — but anything short of perfection risks worsening the gloom.

'Nvidia serves as the leader of the AI revolution — and AI has been a leading catalyst for this bull market,' Bret Kenwell, a US investment analysts at eToro, told Daily Mail.

'That's why there's so much focus on its earnings this week.'

Investors have been flooding cash into the chipmaker for nearly two years, and to many, it is the bellwether for AI's effectiveness.

'It'll be, on one hand, important for Nvidia to confirm that demand is still there, that they're not seeing a slowdown,' Ross Mayfield, an investment strategist at Baird, told CNBC.

'But unless they take it a step further, I think it's only going to leave the second question more open-ended, which is, "We know there's demand for compute, so what is the return on investment for the firms that are buying all of these chips?"'

There are more clues later this week on the state of the US economy.

Walmart reports earnings before the market opens on Thursday, and those results could reveal just how stretched the American shopper really is.

Thursday also brings the September nonfarm payrolls report — the first major economic release since the government shutdown froze key data.

Some of AI's biggest cheerleaders think the technology is going to save billions of dollars in costs.

For example, Morgan Stanley estimates that AI adoption could unlock nearly $1trillion a year in net benefits for S&P 500 companies.

But not everyone is convinced. Some of the market’s biggest skeptics are now warning that the AI boom may be losing steam.

Among them is Michael Burry, the Big Short investor who famously predicted the 2008 financial crash.

In early November, filings revealed he had made a huge bet that Nvidia's share price will fall.

Then, last Tuesday, Masayoshi Son, one of tech's most–watched investors, revealed he quietly sold off all his Nvidia shares and most of his stake in T-Mobile last month.

Both moves were read as a warning sign that the AI boom — the same one that has powered record stock gains for companies like Nvidia, Microsoft, and Palantir — might finally be wobbling.

Last Thursday, the Volatility Index, otherwise known as Wall Street's fear gauge, jumped nearly 20 percent.

'With increased uncertainty comes increased volatility — and that's exactly what we've seen so far in November,' Kenwell added.

'But not all hope is lost. While the S&P 500 is letting off some steam, investors need to remember that the index is up significantly from its April low and has enjoyed a six-month rally.'

Iran deploys risky cloud seeding chemicals in desperate bid to end historic drought

11/17/2025 // Cassie B. // Views

Iran is using cloud seeding to combat its worst drought in 50 years.

Rainfall is 89% below average and key reservoirs are nearly empty.

The government warns Tehran could face evacuation without rain.

Iran had previously accused Israel and the UAE of stealing its rain.

This geoengineering carries major unknown environmental risks.

Iran has turned to manipulating its skies in a desperate attempt to combat its worst drought in 50 years. With rainfall plummeting a shocking 89 percent below long-term averages and reservoirs shrinking to single-digit capacities, authorities have launched cloud seeding operations, spraying chemicals into the air to forcibly wring moisture from the clouds. This drastic measure, reported by state media, highlights a nation on the brink, with President Masoud Pezeshkian issuing a chilling warning that Tehran could face evacuation if rain does not arrive before winter.

This is not a simple weather story. It is a cautionary tale about humanity’s hubris in attempting to engineer nature. Cloud seeding involves dispersing particles, typically silver iodide and salt, into clouds from aircraft. The theory is that these particles provide a nucleus for water vapor to condense around, artificially inducing precipitation. While Iran claims to have developed its own technology for this practice, the long-term consequences of such geoengineering remain dangerously unknown.

The immediate desperation is undeniable. The primary target for the first cloud seeding flight was the basin of Lake Urmia, once the Middle East’s largest lake. Today, it is a vast, dry salt bed, a grim monument to the region’s escalating water crisis. Officials from the National Cloud-Seeding Research Center have stated these operations will continue until mid-May, using both airplanes and drones whenever suitable cloud systems appear.

A history of weather warfare accusations

This push for weather control carries a dark historical echo. In 2018, Brig. Gen. Gholam Reza Jalali, a senior officer in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, made a startling accusation. He stated, "Both Israel and another country - the UAE - are working to make Iranian clouds not rain." At that time, the UAE was actively pursuing its own cloud seeding program. This paranoia over weather being used as a weapon now sees Iran adopting the very same controversial technology it once decried.

The risks of such climate engineering are profound and largely unquantified. Tampering with atmospheric chemistry can have unintended and far-reaching consequences, potentially disrupting natural weather patterns in neighboring regions and causing unpredictable ecological side effects. Introducing substances like silver iodide into ecosystems is a large-scale experiment with outcomes that scientists do not fully understand.

The situation on the ground is dire. The head of Iran’s National Centre for Climate and Drought Crisis Management, Ahmad Vazifeh, confirmed that dams supplying water to major provinces are in a "worrying state." The visual evidence is jarring; images show the gritty, grey, and empty basin of the Amirkabir dam, while rusted boats lie stranded on the former shores of Lake Urmia.

The human cost of desperation

The human response to this crisis speaks volumes. Hundreds of citizens have gathered at mosques, including the Imamzadeh Saleh shrine in Tehran, to participate in traditional prayers for rain. This spiritual appeal stands in sharp contrast to the technological intervention their government is now pursuing, illustrating a population caught between faith and a forced scientific fix for a problem that has been decades in the making.

While the United Arab Emirates and other nations have also employed cloud seeding, its efficacy is still debated by scientists. What is not debatable is that these programs are a symptom of a deeper failure to manage water resources sustainably. They represent a quick technological fix that ignores the need for long-term conservation and environmental stewardship.

The Iranian government’s plan to penalize households and businesses for excessive water consumption, while perhaps necessary, feels like a feeble response to a systemic collapse. When a nation’s largest lake has vanished and its capital faces potential evacuation, the problem extends far beyond individual usage.

Ultimately, Iran’s cloud seeding program is a terrifying gamble. It is the act of a regime, and indeed a global community, that would rather attempt to play god with the atmosphere than confront the difficult truths of resource management and ecological limits. This desperate grasp for control over the weather may provide temporary relief, but it sets a dangerous precedent, opening a new chapter where the sky itself is no longer a natural resource, but a contested battlefield for geoengineering experiments.

How Terrorists Are Using AI

Virginia Allen | November 17, 2025

@Virginia_Allen5

The Islamic State is leveraging artificial intelligence to recruit new members and further its ideology, according to a new report.

The Islamic State has not held any significant amount of land since 2019, yet it has found a way through AI to reinvent itself, Mohammad Taha Ali explained in a new report for the Middle East Forum.

“Unlike earlier jihadist movements that relied on physical sanctuaries, the Islamic State now thrives in virtual ones,” Ali wrote.

The Daily Signal depends on the support of readers like you. Donate now

Ali, a postgraduate student from Jamia Millia Islamia in New Delhi, India, specializing in conflict resolution and strategic affairs, told The Daily Signal he first became aware of the Islamic State’s use of AI at the end of 2023 and the start of 2024, “when ISIS-affiliated online networks began regularly using generative AI to produce multilingual propaganda and automated recruitment material.”

Today, the Islamic State is using new technology tools to create deepfake videos and manufacture news reports that are sympathetic to radical Islamic propaganda. ISIS, according to Ali, takes advantage of crisis situations, such as the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, to flood various digital platforms with “AI-generated extremist content.”

“The goal is not just recruitment; it is to exhaust the algorithmic defenses of major social platforms and dominate online discourse,” Ali wrote.

Even within education, female Islamic State loyalists in refugee camps, such as the al-Hol Displacement Camp in Syria, are using “algorithmically produced martyrdom stories, ensuring the continuity of the movement’s narrative even without formal leadership,” he explained.

Video Games

Gaming is one of the key digital platforms ISIS uses to spread its message and recruit new people into jihadism.

Ali referred to the trend as “gamified radicalization,” in which terrorists target gamers, often in diaspora communities, with radical Islamic ideology.

“These recruits seldom cross a border yet become ideological soldiers in the Islamic State’s virtual army,” he said. “This fusion of gaming culture and jihadist mythology represents an entirely new front in extremist mobilization.”

Cryptocurrency

The Islamic State has also taken advantage of the advent of cryptocurrency, according to Ali. He explained that ISIS uses decentralized forms of currency to evade oversight. Cryptocurrency can be exchanged with anonymity, allowing financiers of the “califate,” the establishment of the Islamic state, to fund fighters with greater trust that their identity won’t be exposed.

“In this way, the Islamic State’s ‘caliphate without borders’ morphs into a financial ecosystem without identities,” Ali said.

What Can Be Done?

The Trump administration is “partially” taking the necessary steps to combat the threat of the Islamic State’s use of AI and cryptocurrency, Ali said, explaining, “There has been progress on crypto enforcement, but the U.S. still lacks a coherent strategy for tracking and countering AI-generated extremist content and synthetic networks.”

The new Islamic State is a “networked, AI-enabled insurgency,” Ali said, and must be treated as such.

To address the threat, Ali recommended that intelligence agencies work with technology companies to monitor and detect AI-generated Islamic State propaganda. Second, specialists who investigate cryptocurrency transactions need greater support through the Financial Action Task Force, an intergovernmental body established to combat nefarious financial activity.

Finally, Ali recommended governments “fund diaspora-led digital literacy and counternarrative programs specifically in gaming communities where extremist recruiters are now operational.”

Defeating the “AI Caliphate,” according to Ali, will require policymakers “to think not like soldiers or theologians, but like engineers.”

Judge Orders Maine Mom Not to Take Her Daughter to Church or Read Her the Bible

Talia Wise

11-18-2025

The Maine Supreme Judicial Court is set to weigh in on whether a lower court overstepped its limits when it barred a mother from reading the Bible to her 12-year-old daughter or taking her to church.

The state's high court heard oral arguments last week in the case of Bickford v. Bradeen — a battle between judicial authority and parental rights. Liberty Counsel, a faith-based non-profit legal group, is representing Emily Bickford. She is challenging a December 2024 custody order that prohibits her from bringing her daughter, Ava, to Calvary Chapel in Portland, Maine.

According to Liberty Counsel, Bickford and Ava's father, Matthew Bradeen, never wed after becoming pregnant with their daughter. Bickford maintained primary custody of Ava, while Bradeen had visitation rights.

After attending Calvary Chapel for three years, young Ava decided to be baptized. She shared the exciting news with her father. However, the news reportedly enraged Bradeen.

Liberty Counsel contends that the father found "an ACLU judge" and "flew in a Marxist former sociology professor from California" to testify that Calvary Chapel or any Bible-believing churches, for that matter, are "cults" that are "psychologically detrimental."

The Portland District Court sided with Ava's father and found that Bickford is "a fit parent except for the fact that she is a Christian," explained Liberty Counsel in a press statement.

The judge ruled that Bickford could not take her daughter to any church unless the father approved of it. Liberty Counsel claims that the order is so broad that if enforced, it can make it so that the young girl cannot associate with any of her church friends or any member of Calvary Chapel Portland. If she meets new friends and they decide to attend the church, she allegedly would have to cut ties with them.

Also, she reportedly cannot attend any Christmas, Easter, or any other Christian event or celebration at any church, including any wedding, funeral, or even hospital visits with anyone associated with Calvary Chapel. Ava is not allowed to have contact with any religious organization nor read the Bible or religious literature.

"Ava wants to attend church and be with her Sunday school friends. But this custody order has completely cut her off from Calvary and her friends, and from growing her Christian faith. This has been devastatingly heart-wrenching for both Emily and Ava. This has been going on since December 2024," wrote Mat Staver, the Founder and Chairman of the Liberty Counsel.

Bickford is pushing back against the court's order, contending that the ruling violates her parental rights. Liberty Counsel is seeking a reversal of the order and restoration of Bickord's First Amendment right to pass on her religious beliefs to her child.

"It affects not only our family, but the families of all Christian children," Bickford told reporters after oral arguments.

Staver argued before the court's justices that the evidence presented before the lower court fell short of meeting the standard of harm necessary to make such a decision, News Center Maine reports.

"There is no finding of abuse or neglect," Staver said, noting that the record showed only that the child "at one time was observed to have anxiety," once had "an observance of a panic attack," left "notes around the house," and wrote in a workbook that a "demon image was scary."

"It cannot amount to immediate and substantial harm, justifying this drastic change and taking away from a fit parent the right to the religious education of their child," Staver explained.

He also argued that the order gave the father "absolute unreviewable authority to deny any kind of association or even reading the Bible or religious philosophy, attending any church or any event or associating with anyone...or any church or religious organization."

Bradeen's attorney, Michelle King, pushed back, saying the court is compelled to protect the child's best interest when harm is documented – even if it means limiting a parent's religious education rights.

"Of course, when making decisions regarding minors, courts rightly weigh issues like parental concerns and religious freedom. But the child's well-being must always be paramount, as it was here," she told Newsweek.

The Maine Supreme Court's decision could reshape how states weigh in on parental rights, religious freedom, and expert testimony in custody disputes.

"The implications of this order pose a serious threat to religious freedom," said Staver.

Meanwhile, Bickford remains hopeful that the court will rule in her favor, not just for her sake, but also for her daughter's.

"She would like to come to church. She misses her friends, and I really hope that this gets overturned," Bickford said. "It needs to be. It's unconstitutional."

The Maine justices have indicated that a ruling will be made in the coming weeks.

12 Things That AI Says The Middle Class Won’t Be Able To Afford Soon

November 18, 2025 by Michael

The middle class in the United States is being systematically destroyed. I know that this may sound like an obvious statement to many of you, but when I first started writing about this more than a decade ago it wasn’t an obvious statement. For years, the middle class was slowly eroding, but now the decline of the middle class has become an avalanche. Even the mainstream media is talking about America’s “K-shaped economy” these days, and nobody can deny that the poor are steadily getting poorer.

Recently, a reader that has been following my work for many years sent me a very sobering email.

I asked him if I could share some of the content of that email in one of my articles, and he gave me permission.

He is one of the millions of Americans that is barely scraping by from month to month, and I think that his story will really resonate with most of you…

My Pickup Insurance went up $17 this month.

My Real Estate Tax went up $187.

I had to get rid of my Landline Phone because I couldn’t afford it anymore.

I drive a 41 year old Pickup with 221,000 miles. I would love to buy a better used Pickup for $7,000 but just don’t have the cash.

Last month I had $17 in my Checking Account when I got my SS Check. The month before that it was $5.

Michael, you have been writing about the vanishing Middle Class. I don’t think there will be a Middle Class in 1 or 2 more years!!! Like I said in a previous email, I don’t know where else I can cut back. And I live a very, very frugal, less materialistic, simple lifestyle compared to the average American.

If I didn’t inherit a small farm with a livable house, I would be homeless!!!

I know that many of you can identify with this.

For a very long time, the cost of living has been rising faster than paychecks.

Now we have reached a stage where a very large proportion of the population is desperately trying to survive from month to month.

A lot of people out there have cut down to one or two meals a day because reducing food expenses is one of the easiest ways to save money.

In fact, one study has found that 2.6 million people that live in New York City “reported facing food hardships this last year”…

According to an alarming study to be released on Tuesday, 2.6 million New Yorkers in the city reported facing food hardships this last year.

“On the worst end, 550,000 New Yorkers actually said that they ran out of food before they had money to buy any more. And to put that in perspective, that’s as if the entire city of Baltimore ran out of food,” Jason Cone with Robin Hood said.

We are not “the land of plenty” anymore.

I realize that this is not welcome news, but it is the truth.

During a recent interview with Fox News, Jade Warshaw laid out some of the facts that show that we are in the midst of a very painful cost of living crisis…

We’re in a cost of living crisis, Dana. I think everybody knows it. We speak to more than 18 million Americans every single week on The Ramsey Show and I am hearing firsthand, yes, the price of housing, rent, mortgages, they’re a problem. Obviously, we know that health care has gone up 6%-7%. I spoke to a woman the other day, the price of her health care is going from $400 to $900. Of course, that’s more than 6%-7%. And then of course, we’re finding things like daycare, obviously food, it’s so expensive. The average American, as a result, is going into debt. And we’re seeing more debt on consumers than ever. $103,000 of consumer debt is what Americans are paying, because these big three are still continuing to eat at our wallets: credit cards, student loans, car payments, Dana. It really is a crisis.

So what is our country going to look like as this cost of living crisis continues to intensify?

I asked Google AI to tell me some of the things that the middle class would be unable to afford soon, and this is what I was told…

Homeownership: The traditional cornerstone of middle-class wealth, owning a home, has become an elusive dream for many, especially in urban and high-demand areas. Skyrocketing home prices, high down payments, and increased mortgage rates have made it so that in many markets, fewer than one in five homes are within reach for typical middle-income households.

Higher Education: A college education is increasingly a financial burden, with tuition and expenses soaring. Middle-class families often earn too much to qualify for significant financial aid but not enough to pay out of pocket, leading to massive student debt that can delay other life goals for decades.

Retirement Savings: Due to other financial pressures and the shift from pension plans to 401(k)s, many families struggle to save enough for a comfortable retirement. The inability to put away sufficient funds for the future means many may face the prospect of working longer or a reduced standard of living later in life.

Healthcare: Even with insurance, the costs of premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket expenses for medical care and prescriptions can lead to substantial financial strain, making specialized medical treatments unaffordable for some.

Childcare: Quality childcare expenses can rival or exceed college tuition in many areas, forcing many parents (often mothers) to leave the workforce because the cost effectively erases the benefit of a second income.

New Cars: The average price of a new car has surged, partly due to advanced technology features becoming standard. This, combined with higher insurance and maintenance costs, means many families are holding onto older vehicles longer or forgoing car ownership altogether.

Groceries and Everyday Essentials: Persistent inflation means essentials like food, utilities, and gas are significantly more expensive, stretching paychecks and leading many families to worry about affording daily needs.

Comprehensive Insurance Plans: The rising cost of maintaining adequate health, home, and auto insurance coverage is becoming a major concern, potentially leading families to opt for limited coverage and increased financial risk.

Leisure and Vacations: Rising costs of living mean that family vacations and leisure activities, considered essential for a balanced life, are becoming luxuries many cannot afford.

Personal Fitness and Wellness Services: Personalized services like personal trainers or boutique fitness classes are increasingly seen as luxuries for only the upper class.

Organic and Specialty Foods: The higher price tag associated with organic and specialty foods may put these healthier options out of reach for average middle-class budgets.

New Technology and Eco-Friendly Upgrades: Keeping up with the latest tech gadgets or investing in eco-friendly home improvements (like solar panels or energy-efficient appliances) often requires a substantial initial investment that can be prohibitive.

I want to say a little bit more about the first item in that list.

Soaring prices and high mortgage rates are not the only reasons why home ownership has become so expensive.

Insurance rates have been steadily escalating for years, and property taxes have risen to insane levels in many parts of the country…

The hidden costs of homeownership are reaching nearly $16,000 per year nationwide, underscoring the ongoing affordability crisis crippling potential buyers.

A new analysis from real estate marketplace Zillow and Thumbtack, an online marketplace for local services, found that insurance, maintenance and property tax can cost the average homeowner $15,979 per year. Maintenance costs account for $10,946 of that, while about $2,003 goes toward homeowners insurance and $3,030 toward property taxes, according to the November analysis.

I have a confession to make.

I really detest property taxes.

In fact, if I could permanently ban property taxes on a nationwide basis, I would do it.

All over America, elderly people are being forced out of homes that have been completely paid for because they can no longer afford the property taxes.

Do we really own our homes if we have to keep shelling out thousands of dollars a year just for the privilege of continuing to live in them?

Home maintenance has also become an increasingly burdensome expense, but many homeowners are trying to cut corners wherever they can in this very challenging economic environment, and that is having a direct impact on Home Depot’s bottom line…

The Home Depot is a bellwether for the US economy and housing market. It’s latest quarter isn’t sparking much confidence.

On Tuesday morning, the home improvement chain said it served fewer customers in the past three months than expected.

Its earnings come as Wall Street hits a concerning stretch of losses. In the past week, all three major stock indexes are in the red as investor confidence in AI begins to slide.

I know that things seem bad now, but what is coming in 2026 and beyond will be even worse.

The employment market is really tightening up, and mass layoffs are happening from coast to coast.

According to the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, the number of WARN notices filed during the month of October was one of the highest ever recorded…

Impending layoff notices across much of the U.S. surged in October, highlighting signs of stress in the job market.

Data from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland shows that 39,006 Americans last month in 21 states received a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, or WARN, notice informing them of an upcoming layoff. U.S. labor law requires employers to provide these written warnings 60 days ahead of plant closings or mass layoffs.

It represents one of the highest numbers of WARN notices since Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland researchers started tracking the data in January 2006, although the tally remains below the spikes recorded during the 2008 financial crisis and the 2020 pandemic.

Over the last several years, we have witnessed a steady deterioration of the U.S. economy.

But curling up into a fetal position and crying about it isn’t going to help anything.

If you understand what is happening, that will help you to make wise decisions.

And wise decisions lead to wise actions.

The road ahead is going to require all of us to be strong and courageous, because things are starting to move very rapidly now.

Powerful earthquake slams California, sending shockwaves hundreds of miles up the coast

By STACY LIBERATORE, US SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY EDITOR

Published: 13:25 EST, 18 November 2025 | Updated: 20:38 EST, 18 November 2025

An earthquake struck California's Central Coast on Tuesday, sending shockwaves hundreds of miles across the region.

The 4.1 magnitude shake was recorded at 9.45am PT (12.54pm ET), pinpointing the epicenter near Templeton.

Tremors were reported up and down the coastline, from Salinas in the north to Lompoc in the south.

The earthquake, according to the government's rating system, produced moderate, noticeable jolts that could have shattered windows and overturned unstable objects.

So far, more than 600 people have reported feeling the tremor to the US Geological Survey (USGS), and that number is still climbing.

The quake's location immediately sparked fears of a potential tsunami, but the USGS later confirmed there was 'No Tsunami Warning, Advisory, Watch, or Threat.'

Officials in British Columbia, Canada informed its citizens of the California earthquake, noting 'There is NO tsunami threat to BC.'

The USGS has warned there is a 21 percent chance of a magnitude 3 or higher earthquake striking in the next week, along with a three percent chance of a magnitude 4 or higher in the same timeframe.

Templeton is located near the San Andreas Fault, which is the major plate boundary responsible for California's seismic activity.

'The San Andreas Fault can generate the region's largest magnitude earthquakes (up to about M8.2),' said the USGS.

'The most recent 'Big One' on this fault in southern California was the M7.9 Fort Tejon earthquake of 1857, which was strongly felt throughout Los Angeles.'

Today's quake received a 'MMI V' rating, according to the USGS's ShakeMap.

Experts are 'fairly confident that there could be a pretty large earthquake at some point in the next 30 years,' Angie Lux, project scientist for Earthquake Early Warning at the Berkeley Seismology Lab, previously told the Daily Mail.

Experts predict the 'Big One' would cause roughly 1,800 deaths, 50,000 injuries and $200 billion in damages, according to the Great California Shakeout.

Based on historical trends, it's estimated that the San Andreas causes a major quake every 150 or so years, and the last one was 167 years ago.

California is the third most seismically active US state, following Hawaii and Alaska.

Data shows that so far this year, California has experienced more than 14,000 tremors, compared to Alaska, which is nearing 60,000.

However, California experiences more earthquakes that cause damage due to its higher population and extensive infrastructure.

'Southern California is also home to small areas of volcanic and geothermal activity, including Coso, north of Ridgecrest, and in the area south of the Salton Sea,' the USGS said.

'In these areas, hot fluid or magma is moving through the crust, causing local stresses and fracture movement.

'These areas frequently experience seismic swarms, which are clusters of earthquakes that have no clear mainshock.

'They may consist of many thousands of events and can last for hours, days, or years. Seismic swarms are also observed elsewhere in southern California, indicating localized movement of crustal fluids.'

US Collecting Biometric Data for Canadian Visitors

Posted Nov 19, 2025 by Martin Armstrong |

Governments use national security as the premise for increased surveillance. Due to a law passed in April, Canadians visiting the US must submit biometric data in order to enter the US if they wish to stay longer than 29 days. Beginning next month, everyone will be forced to submit their data to the government. We heard from a Canadian WEC guest who was taken aback when asked to submit these forms, as it was not required last year.

The Canadian government may issue an I-94 electronic record to air passengers ahead of arrival if you plan on an extended stay. Visit the US Customs and Border website to determine if you have an I-94 form on file. This form should be valid for the next six months. The rules are a bit stricter for those driving across the border, but it is possible to pre-apply online to avoid waiting at the border. For either method, the US government will require fingerprints and a photograph that will be kept on file.

Those kicking off snowbird season at the start of the conference may have the ability to register with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) by filling out an online form called G-325R. You must provide your US address but this is the only method to avoid submitting biometric data. If you stay in the US for more than 29 days, you will need to resubmit this form to avoid submitting your fingerprints and image.

Beginning December 26, Canadians must submit biometric data when entering and exiting the US. “This technology compares your live facial features with the photo in your travel documents to verify your identity, creating a more seamless, secure, and safer travel experience,” Customs and Border Patrol notes on its website. “CBP is leading the way in innovative identity verification through its use of facial biometric comparison technology. This technology compares your live facial features with the photo in your travel documents to verify your identity, creating a more seamless, secure, and safer travel experience.”

Biometric kiosks are appearing at airports across the globe. Not only will your government have your biometric profile, but EVERY nation you visit will soon have your unique profile on file. You can no longer avoid this process by entering the US by land or sea as border agents will simply not let anyone in unless they surrender their data.

Trump's move is destructive for Israel as Netanyahu stays silent

The US proposal to the UN Security Council lays out a clear path toward establishing a Palestinian state. Even under a Democratic president who clashed with Netanyahu, there was never such an explicit statement. It can only be described in one word.

by Ariel Kahana

Published on 11-15-2025 22:52 Last modified: 11-16-2025 10:49

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared dozens of times in recent months, and rightly so, that a Palestinian state will not be established. He, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar and other senior officials in the Israeli government have repeatedly explained, again correctly, that creating a Palestinian state in the aftermath of the Simchat Torah massacre would be a reward for terrorism.

They not only said this but acted on it. Just two months ago, Israel worked with full force and with considerable success to block French President Emmanuel Macron's attempt to push a Security Council resolution recognizing a Palestinian state. Macron argued that in his view, such a state would only be established after extensive reforms and the eradication of corruption. Still, Israel rose in full opposition to stop it. Oddly, Israel has yet to respond to the unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state by Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and others. Israel's concern, entirely justified, was that such recognition would trigger a diplomatic landslide.

Then, on Friday night, as Israelis were making Kiddush, the US officially and explicitly announced that the goal of its Gaza plan, expected to pass the Security Council this week, is the establishment of a Palestinian state. The US, Qatar, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Pakistan, Jordan and Turkey issued a joint statement through the US mission to the UN declaring that they were publishing this statement as member states convening at senior levels to launch a process offering a path to Palestinian self-determination and statehood. That was written clearly in the opening paragraph.

What was Netanyahu's response to this statement? Silence. Israel is not only failing to fight the move as it did recently but is acquiescing through inaction. Some right-wing ministers, including from Likud, repeated their opposition to a Palestinian state. But the official decision-maker, the prime minister, has remained silent. And worse, even if he objects, it appears he cannot stop what is taking shape.

The statement from US Ambassador Mike Waltz was released as an agreed text after several weeks of intensive behind-the-scenes talks among many countries. In other words, this is the final product. Worse still, it is not merely an attachment or a side declaration to the resolution the Security Council is expected to pass this week. It will be part of the resolution itself.

Nearly the same language appears in the draft resolution circulated by the US. The draft the US placed before the Security Council states that after reforms in the Palestinian Authority are fully implemented and after Gaza is rebuilt, the conditions might be created for a credible path toward Palestinian self-determination and statehood.

It has to be read to be believed. Not France, not Britain and not Canada, but the US itself is not only refusing to veto a Security Council resolution calling for the creation of a Palestinian state but is leading the effort. This alone is a major diplomatic blow.

For comparison, even UN Security Council Resolution 2334, which former president Barack Obama allowed to pass in the final weeks of his term in 2016, did not call for establishing such a state. Netanyahu erupted at the time, and justifiably. And today? Nothing.

His advisers offer various excuses. They argue that the Security Council decision refers to Trump's 2020 plan and that this plan contains multiple conditions that would in practice prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state. These legal acrobatics are cute. They might even hold water if Trump's original conditions were included in the expected Security Council decision.

But not by accident, all those strict demands placed on the Palestinians, including ending terrorism, ending incitement and education to terrorism, ending salaries for terrorists, fighting corruption and more, are not mentioned in the text that is expected to pass this week. Not even Hamas, the terrorist organization that carried out the massacre, is mentioned. There is no condemnation of the massacre itself.

International dynamics, especially when Israel and the UN are involved, are notoriously dire. While Beautiful words remain on paper, Israel is left to deal with the harsh reality. Look no further than UNIFIL, Resolution 242 and so many others.

And Trump will not be around forever. Even if Israel might manage with him, though given Netanyahu's inability to stand up to him on this crucial issue even that is uncertain, what happens when he is gone? Who exactly will enforce the last of the conditions in his forgotten 2020 plan? Antonio Guterres?

The bottom line is clear and grim. The Security Council resolution that will close the war in Gaza does not condemn the mass murder the Palestinians carried out against Jews on Oct. 7, 2023. Instead, it does the opposite. It rewards the killers with a pathway to a state. Just as serious, the one leading this resolution is Donald Trump, the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House, who is doing so with the consent of his close friend, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. There is only one word for this humiliating outcome: collapse.

Analysis: Turkey’s Gaza plan could corner Israel on two fronts

Israel could soon find itself squared off against the Turkish military, in the south and to the north.

Kobi Michael

Nov 14, 2025 at 3:34 pm Topics: Gaza, Turkey

(JNS) Ankara has announced that it is recruiting 2,000 Turkish soldiers and training them as a brigade that will join the International Stabilization Force (ISF), slated to deploy in the Gaza Strip as part of US President Donald Trump’s ceasefire plan. This step dovetails with another Turkish move revealed a few days ago, the issuance of 37 arrest warrants against senior Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, on allegations of war crimes and genocide.

These developments come as Ankara invests heavily in increasing visibility in Gaza via Turkish and Palestinian aid organizations. Turkish posters and flags are flying across the Strip, including on bulldozers clearing debris and searching for deceased hostages.

Trump has enlisted Turkey, alongside Qatar, as a lead partner in his initiative and views Ankara as the most effective lever over the Hamas terrorist organization. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has thrown himself into the task. He credits Turkey with persuading Hamas to accept, and begin implementing, the plan’s first phase, and he wants what he considers proper payment for that achievement—deeper Turkish presence, involvement and influence in Gaza.

Netanyahu Rebukes Macron for Calling Abbas a “Prince of Peace” Amid Ongoing PA Terror Stipends

Eliyahu Berkowitz

Two-State Solution/Palestinian State

November 14, 2025 2 min read

French President Emmanuel Macron stood beside Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas in Paris. The French leader declared the head of the PA to be a “prince of peace,” echoing Pope Francis’s 2015 description of Abbas as an “angel of peace.” The praise contrasted sharply with the record of a leader whose doctoral thesis in Soviet academia denied aspects of the Holocaust, whose movement descends directly from the terrorist PLO under Yasser Arafat, and whose government still pays stipends to terrorists under the pay-for-slay system. The PA continues to reward murderers with escalating payments based on the number of Jews killed and has failed to implement reforms that Abbas himself signed into law.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded immediately, calling Macron’s praise “the opposite of reality.” Speaking to Australian journalist Erin Molan, Netanyahu outlined what Paris chose to ignore: Abbas’s refusal to end terror payments, the naming of public squares after mass murderers, and education materials that erase Israel and glorify violence. Macron nevertheless insisted that France views Abbas as a reliable partner and continues to advance recognition of a Palestinian state.

After their meeting at the Élysée Palace, Macron described Abbas as a leader committed to peace and constitutional reform. He announced a joint legal committee with the PA, French aid to Gaza, and a warning to Israel that any annexation of Judea and Samaria would trigger a European response. Macron repeated his condemnation of so-called “settler violence,” despite a recent 125-page Regavim Movement report analyzing UN incident data that showed more than 98 percent of the cases labeled as “settler violence” involved clashes between Palestinians and the IDF with no Israeli civilians present.

Macron’s embrace of Abbas mirrors growing European momentum to elevate the PA as a state-building partner. It also comes as Abbas—now entering the nineteenth year of a four-year term—again pledged reforms, elections, and a new PA constitution. These promises have been made repeatedly while the pay-for-slay network operates through a rebranded “welfare” mechanism and while the PA continues payments to terrorists who carried out the October 7 attacks.

At the Vatican, similar praise was offered during Abbas’s recent audience with Pope Leo XIV, who called for increased humanitarian aid to Gaza and reaffirmed support for a Palestinian state. The diplomatic push aligns with renewed international pressure for a “Two-State Solution”, an agenda that would create an unprecedented militarized Palestinian enclave within Israel’s borders, ethnically cleansed of Jews, with its exclusively Muslim capital in Jerusalem. This agenda is based on the failed land-for-peace model that resulted in the creation of the Palestinian Authority and Hamas-ruled Gaza.

The prophet Ezekiel described this dynamic with stark precision: “Because they have misled My people, saying, ‘Peace,’ when there is no peace” (Ezekiel 13:10). The verse exposes the gap between declarations from world leaders and the reality on the ground. The Sages taught that false assurances of peace put lives at risk by masking violence rather than confronting it. The Hebrew term shalom means more than the absence of conflict. It requires accountability, justice, and a recognition of truth. Fabricated narratives cannot produce shalom.

The Bible’s standard rejects the celebration of leaders who support or excuse bloodshed. It places responsibility on rulers to stand against violence, not reward it. Abbas’s system of payments to terrorists violates every aspect of biblical justice. Framing him as a “prince of peace” inverts the meaning of the word itself.

Trump plan with Saudi Arabia threatens Israeli air superiority

The planned deal would allow Saudi Arabia to buy the F-35, which has clear implications for Israeli air superiority in the region.

Israel National News

Nov 15, 2025, 11:17 PM (GMT+2)

Saudi ArabiaF-35 Donald TrumpMohammed bin SalmanAbraham Accords

U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to reach an agreement with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman that would allow Saudi Arabia to purchase F-35 fighter jets.

The deal is worth tens of billions of dollars and could change the balance of power in the Middle East.

"They wanna buy a lot of jets," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One."I'm looking at that. They've asked me to look at it. They want to buy a lot of '35' - but they want to buy actually more than that, fighter jets. We have the best planes, the best missiles; you saw it when we destroyed Iran's nuclear capability," he added.

Israel was the first country outside the United States to receive the F-35, and the aircraft entered operational use in the Israeli Air Force in December 2017 under the name "Adir".

Trump sees the deal as part of an effort to bring Saudi Arabia into the Abraham Accords, as he said ahead of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's visit to the White House this week. The Pentagon is also concerned about the deal because of fears that, due to Saudi Arabia's close ties with China, the aircraft's advanced technologies could reach the Chinese superpower.

Last weekend, Trump announced that Kazakhstan would join the Abraham Accords and then wrote on Truth Social that, "I just held a great call between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, of Israel, and President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, of Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan is the first Country of my Second Term to join the Abraham Accords, the first of many. This is a major step forward in building bridges across the World. Today, more Nations are lining up to embrace Peace and Prosperity through my Abraham Accords. We will soon announce a Signing Ceremony to make it official, and there are many more Countries trying to join this club of STRENGTH. So much more to come in uniting Countries for Stability and Growth - Real progress, real results. BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS!"

After posting the message, Trump added, "We are in talks with many countries that wanted to join the Abraham Accords and could not do so because of Iran, which was the bully of the Middle East. Now that Iran's nuclear capability has been eliminated, many want to join. We are in talks with the traditional potential members of the Abraham Accords."

Chaos in Mexico City: Protesters Assault Police, Storm Barriers Amid Cartel Fury

by Shane Fisher  November 15, 2025

Why Stocking Up on “Survival” Food Is Essential Today

Thousands descended on Mexico City’s Zocalo Square today, their march against rampant cartel violence exploding into clashes with riot police. Demonstrators tore through security fences around the National Palace, dragging officers from their lines and pummeling them with makeshift weapons as tear gas choked the air.

The rally, sparked by the recent assassination of Uruapan Mayor Carlos Manzo, drew a mix of Gen Z activists and older citizens fed up with corruption and unchecked crime. Manzo, gunned down seven times at a public event in Michoacán earlier this month, had openly blasted President Claudia Sheinbaum for weak efforts against the cartels. His death fueled the outrage, with crowds chanting demands for real action against the narco gangs terrorizing communities.

Arizbeth Garcia, a 43-year-old physician marching for better security in the health system, said, “[Doctors] are also exposed to the insecurity gripping the country, where you can be murdered and nothing happens.”

Rosa Maria Avila, 65, from Patzcuaro in Michoacán, added, “The state is dying. He was killed because he was a man who was sending officers into the mountains to fight delinquents. He had the guts to confront them.”

Manzo himself had warned before his murder: “We need greater determination from the president of Mexico. I do not want to be just another mayor on the list of those who have been executed and had their lives taken away from them. … I am very afraid, but I must face it with courage.”

Sheinbaum’s administration faces mounting scrutiny for sticking to a strategy that critics say prioritizes leniency over enforcement, allowing cartels to operate with impunity. Whispers in opposition circles suggest deeper ties between officials and criminal networks, especially in hotspots like Michoacán where rival gangs like Los Viagras and Jalisco New Generation vie for control.

Recent reports from Al Jazeera note that young protesters are channeling frustration over systemic impunity, while Yahoo News points to Sheinbaum’s critics accusing her of failing to curb the bloodshed that claims thousands of lives yearly.

The violence echoes broader failures, with cartels not just dominating Mexico but spilling chaos across the border into the U.S. through drug trafficking and human smuggling.

Sheinbaum pushed back against external intervention, stating, “No, President Trump, our territory is inalienable, sovereignty is inalienable. We can collaborate. We can work together, but with you in your territory and us in ours. We can share information, but we will never accept the presence of the United States Army on our territory.”

As images of the melee spread on social media, including X posts showing crowds surging against palace barriers, questions linger about whether this signals a tipping point. Times Now captured tear gas enveloping the square, while Instagram reels from the scene depict the raw anger over Manzo’s cartel-linked slaying. With elections looming and public trust eroding, the government’s grip on law and order appears shakier than ever.

WW3 fears explode after saboteurs blow up railway line in NATO country

Poland's Prime Minister confirmed that the explosion was an act of sabotage.

Poland's Prime Minister has confirmed that an explosion which damaged a railway in the country was an act of sabotage. Donald Tusk wrote on X: "Unfortunately, the worst fears have been confirmed. On the Warsaw-Lublin route (Mika village), an act of sabotage has occurred. The explosion of an explosive device destroyed the railway track. Emergency services and the prosecutor's office are working at the scene.

"On the same route, closer to Lublin, damage has also been identified." Mr Tusk did not say who is responsible for the sabotage, but has previously accused Russia in similar instances, though Moscow has always denied involvement. Poland's deputy interior minister confirmed that investigators are probing the sabotage.

He said: "After all, Russia is not so powerful that every arson attack or similar situation was provoked by Russia. However, in no case should this be ruled out or ignored."

Local police said on Sunday that a train driver reported damage on the line in central Poland. The railway line reportedly leads to Poland's border with Ukraine, RMF24 reports.

The "disruption" was reported in Życzyn, Garwolin County, Masovian Voivodeship, near PKP Mika station. This line connects Warsaw with the Dorohusk border crossing, the outlet said.

The route is used by Mazovian Railways, as well as freight trains headed for Lublin, Chelm, and destinations further into Ukraine.

Mr Tusk said on Sunday: "Regarding the destruction of a section of the tracks on the Dęblin-Warsaw route, I am in constant contact with the Minister of Internal Affairs.

WW3 fears erupt as NATO country's ship explodes into flames after 'drone strike'

The ship was hit near a port in Ukraine.

A Turkish-flagged tanker has been hit in a reported drone strike near the Port of Izmail in Ukraine. ORINDA was carrying liquified petroleum gas when it was hit during evacuation operations, causing a fire to break out. An unidentified missile or rocket smashed into the ship while 16 crew members were evacuating.

They managed to make it out safely before the blaze ingited and officials said there were no injuries. Ukrainian firefighters rushed to the scene, while Turkish authorities also monitor the situation. A more detailed assessment of the damage is expected once the fire is under control.

This is not the first time a Turkish-flagged vessel has been attacked in the Black Sea since the start of the Russia-Ukraine war.

In 2024, Russia was suspected of conducing a missile strike on a Turkish-operated cargo ship carrying Ukrainian grain to Egypt.

The incident occurred roughly 30 miles off Romania's coastline - outside national waters but within the country's exclusive maritime economic zone. There were no casualties, but the ship sustained significant damage.

The previous year, a Turkish-owned cargo vessel was attacked and raided by the Russian navy.

UN Terror Network Exposed: 10-Year Investigation Finds 500 Employees 'Involved in Terrorism'

Gary Lane  11-11-2025

Share This article ANALYSIS

A ten-year investigation has uncovered the truth about terrorist infiltration and indoctrination within UNRWA. UN Watch discovered that 500 employees of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian refugees were "involved in terrorism. incitement, and membership in extremist organizations."

This week's "Global Lane" commentary contends that it's time for the U.S. government to permanently freeze the $400 million annually given to the UN agency, "which has been used by terrorists to spread antisemitism and violence." Can UNRWA be dissolved and replaced with "something better, free from corruption and hate"?

On October 24, 2025, during a press conference in Israel, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees, UNRWA, has become a subsidiary of Hamas. He emphasized that the terrorist organization should not play any role in governing Gaza's future.

In response to Rubio's remarks, the Swiss monitoring group UN Watch recently released a map claiming to expose the systemic infiltration of UNRWA by terrorist organizations, most notably Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad. UN Watch asserts that it conducted 10 years of research, discovering that nearly 500 UNRWA employees were involved in terrorism, incitement, and membership in extremist organizations. The group is calling on the United States to "take definitive action to dismantle UNRWA."

UNRWA has responded to these allegations by denying any systemic infiltration and emphasizing that its over 30,000 staff members overwhelmingly adhere to UN neutrality principles.

But one year ago, Israel passed a law banning UNRWA's operations with Palestinians, thereby ending its cooperation with the agency, which had begun in June 1967. That was the right move.

Here at CBN News, we've reported for years on how UNRWA has educated young Palestinians to wage jihad against Israel. In one of our reports, David Bedeen of the Center for Near East Policy Research displayed a page from a textbook used by UNRWA featuring imagery of a female terrorist.

"This is Dalal Mughrabi, who murdered 36 Jews in a terror attack in 1978. And she's glorified in this book, and there's a whole curriculum for her run by UNRWA," he explained.

U.S. taxpayers have contributed as much as $400 million annually to UNRWA, funding activities that promote hateful rhetoric and terrorist infiltration. The Trump administration and Congress froze this aid less than a week after President Trump began his second term. It's time to make this freeze permanent and disband this international agency, which has been used by terrorists to spread antisemitism and violence.

Romans 12.21 reminds us not to be overcome by evil, but to overcome evil with good. So let's replace UNRWA with something better, free from corruption and hate. Additionally, let's strive to apply that biblical advice in our own lives.

NPR’s war on Israel: Bias masquerading as journalism

Moshe Phillips

Opinion  November 11, 2025 2 min read

New hires often come with prejudices against Israel fully formed before they even start their job.

National Public Radio’s bias against Israel has been a nearly daily thing since the Hamas-led terrorist invasion of southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. Critics of the media outlet have rightly spoken out repeatedly against its slanted coverage, such as the continuous use of casualty figures issued by the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry as fact and without explaining to its audience that Hamas controls this information. What has gone largely unexamined is NPR’s blaming Israel for its supposed inability to access the Gaza Strip during the war.

In September, NPR proudly reported on its charging the Israel Defense Forces with crimes, and at the same time, pressured Israel to allow more journalists into Gaza, knowing full well that these news people would be placed in danger.

One of the statements that it signed onto read: “We demand the protection of Palestinian journalists and an end to the impunity for crimes perpetrated by the Israeli army against them in the Gaza Strip. We demand the foreign press be granted independent access to the Gaza Strip.”

The palpable hypocrisy when it comes to Israel and hostility to Israel was displayed by NPR once again earlier this month with its story headlined, “Our Correspondent Is Finally Allowed Into Gaza.”

It seems like NPR wants to see more news people in the Palestinian enclave so that it can have more stories about journalists who are casualties.

Its audio report on Nov. 5 was introduced on its website this way: “During two years of war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.”

To me, this sums up NPR’s failure to cover accurately. Hamas is not labeled as the terrorist group that it is. Hamas and Israel are portrayed as two equal nations in conflict, rather than the true story of a nation at war against terrorism. The 2023 Hamas invasion of Israel is left out, so that Israel’s presence in Gaza has zero context.

Far too much of its reporting follows these same patterns.

Problematic examples could, and probably should, fill more than one book. For now, just one more fact should be related: Journalists that NPR hires often come with prejudices against Israel fully formed before they even start their job.

Al Jazeera is state-owned and funded by the government of Qatar through its Qatar Media Corporation.

In October, NPR audiences were exposed to an especially anti-Israel interview feature about its own staffer, a former Al Jazeera employee named Jane Arraf. She complains about “the fact that Palestinians don’t have a homeland,” as if she were an opinion writer or pundit, and not someone who poses as a news reporter.

Included among the outrageous statements that Arraf made in her October interview were that “Israel has restricted aid (to Gaza) for months,” and that she “was standing on the ruins of a demolished village that overlooks Israel, and it was demolished by the Israeli army after the ceasefire with Lebanon last year because they want to depopulate those border villages.”

How does Arraf know what was behind the IDF’s supposed actions in this village? Did she ask the Israeli military? And why did she fail to mention the name of the village?

NPR can and must do better. Its audiences deserve truth.

'Most deadly' strain of virus sweeps Britain - everything we know

Patients with the virus often report a higher fever, but in some cases, it can be deadly.

By Laura Zilincanova

10:48, Wed, Nov 12, 2025 Updated: 11:21, Wed, Nov 12, 2025

Data from Australia indicates that the H3N2 flu strain has caused the country's worst influenza season on record, a trend that health experts warn could be mirrored in Britain as winter approaches. In Japan, the same strain has led to widespread school closures as infections reach epidemic levels, with thousands of people requiring hospital treatment.

Health officials in Britain have already warned that flu has arrived around a month earlier than usual, raising concerns that too few eligible people are taking up the offer of a free NHS flu vaccine. The latest figures reveal that two in five care home residents are still unvaccinated, prompting renewed calls for vulnerable groups to come forward for their jabs. The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) has warned H3N2 "can kill" and has called on parents to give their children the flu vaccine nasal spray.

UK facing virus disaster as health boss warns 'thousands will die'

Dr Helen Stewart, RCPCH officer for health improvement, said: "This year it's looking like a particularly bad season - rates of flu are much higher at this point than they were at this point last year.

"And we know that there's been some changes to the flu virus circulating, which means that people might be more susceptible to infection.

"Unfortunately, it's not just the elderly and people with chronic, long-term health conditions that get flu, it can make previously very fit and well children very, very poorly.

"Thousands of kids need to go to hospital because they have flu every year."

"Children do die every year from flu, so it is definitely not just a bad cold.

"The main complications that we see are pneumonia, so a severe chest infection needing breathing support, and that can tip over into sepsis and very extreme cases.

"I've seen some very, very sick children going to intensive care with flu."

H3N2 has mutated to better escape immunity from previous vaccines. This is because it has mutated to be particularly aggressive.

On the surface of the virus particle, there are two protein spikes called hemagglutinin (orange in the main image) and neuraminidase (green). Haemagglutinin plays a role in the attachment of the virus to human respiratory cells. Neuraminidase plays a role in releasing newly formed virus particles from an infected cell.

As all flu virus strains, the newly mutated H3N2 can cause a sudden onset of the following symptoms:

Fever/chills

Cough (often dry)

Sore throat

Runny or stuffy nose

Body and muscle aches

Headache

Fatigue/weakness

However, for H3N2, there is a tendency for the fever to be worse. Patients often experience a higher average body temperature and a greater likelihood of a high fever - above 38°C - compared to strains like H1N1.

The most effective way to prevent the flu is by receiving the annual flu vaccine. Additional precautions include practising good hygiene, such as washing your hands regularly, avoiding touching your face, and covering your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing. Other measures that can help reduce the risk of infection include regularly cleaning frequently touched surfaces and steering clear of crowded places whenever possible.

It is estimated that deaths from flu in England stood at 7,757 last winter compared to 3,555 the year before. Child deaths involving flu also increased from 34 to 53.

Israel’s existential danger has moved beyond its borders

Maayan Hoffman | Published: November 13, 2025

Israel needs to treat the battle against antisemitism like the eighth front that it is: a strategic fight that demands real resources, a clear doctrine, and the urgency of a national security priority before it is too late.

According to a new report by Combat Antisemitism, there were 168 antisemitic incidents recorded worldwide just last week by its Antisemitism Research Center. These included the vandalization of a synagogue in Toronto, a campaign launched by a Danish political party urging voters to "Free Copenhagen from Zionism," and a business owner in Melbourne who refused to hire an Israeli woman and said she hoped the woman would leave the city soon.

And the list keeps growing. Most recently, a Neo-Nazi rally was held outside the New South Wales Parliament in Australia, a chilling reminder of how openly hate is surfacing in Western democracies.

Although the fragile ceasefire between Hamas and Israel is holding for now under American pressure, the existential threat of the eighth front has not eased, and almost certainly will not go away.

For more than two years, Israel has dedicated its army and its reserves to fighting seven physical fronts and, in many ways, has succeeded. But when it comes to the battlefield of antisemitism, Israel and the Jewish people are losing ground. This is not a public relations war. This is a war for the future of the Jewish people, the State of Israel, and ultimately humanity and freedom.

And make no mistake: the end of the Hamas-Israel war will not end the campaign on the eighth front. The vicious tsunami of antisemitism that has swept across the world in recent years has not subsided. On the contrary, it has been unleashed, normalized, and embedded in ways we can no longer afford to ignore.

According to Michal Cotler-Wunsh, CEO of the International Legal Forum (ILF) and Israel's former Special Envoy for Combatting Antisemitism, Israel's ability to fight the eighth front will ultimately determine its ability to fight on all the others.

"It will, of course, dictate the way that Jews and Zionists, anybody believing in Israel's right to exist, may live," Cotler-Wunsh said. "Because you don't need to be a Jew to be the target of this pernicious form of an ever-mutating, lethal virus, anti-Zionism. You just need to believe in Israel's right to exist. Anti-Zionism is not criticism of Israel, just as antisemitism is not criticism of Jews. Anti-Zionism is the denial of Israel's very right to exist. So by definition, it is an existential threat to the Jewish nation state."

Cotler-Wunsh told All Israel News that the Jewish people must "see the writing on the wall" and recognize that they have no choice but to fight this war in the most comprehensive way possible, as a people, and together with allies around the world.

The normalization of antisemitism has reached such an extreme that politicians can now win votes on the back of it. Earlier this month, an anti-Zionist candidate, Zohran Mamdani, won the mayoral race in New York City. In Cotler-Wunsh's estimation, he did not win "despite" his antisemitic views. For many voters, she said, he won because of them.

"I don't think antisemitism is going away anywhere," Cotler-Wunsh continued. "I actually think we need to prepare ourselves in that sense for the normalization of antisemitism, for it's becoming acceptable once again."

She added that the normalization of antisemitism intersects with, and fuels, a broader normalization of extremism – whether it comes from the right, the left, or Islamist movements.

Here, the lines between ideological extremism and antisemitic hatred blur into one combustible force, and that force is spreading.

So what does it look like to prepare strategically?

The first step, she said, is recognizing that this is a war, not a PR problem.

"We don't fight wars by doing good PR and branding. We fight wars by using the tools that have been weaponized."

This includes legal tools utilized in international courts and organizations, such as the United Nations. It means pushing to ensure that the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism is accepted and upheld by states and countries. It means focusing not only on specific organizations but on all "spaces and places," she explained – academic institutions, formal and informal education, online platforms, as well as international institutions and agencies. It means taking the battle to the streets and to the digital sphere.

There will not be one single weapon. Instead, a new arsenal must be created and adapted for each of these different arenas.

She also warned that the Jewish people cannot continue to be caught off guard – "surprised over and over again" – as the threat intensifies.

Cotler-Wunsh added that Jews will not be able to escape this wave of hatred.

Jews who try to shed their Judaism, assimilate, or distance themselves from Israel will still be targeted, she said. It didn't work during World War II and the Holocaust, and it will not work now. In fact, when Jews attempt to detach from their own identity and religion, they often become even more of a target.

“Just as in the past Jews who shed their religion were not immune, today, Jews who shed their Zionism are not going to have an insurance policy,” Cotler-Wunsh said.

This new reality will force a paradigm shift, the beginnings of which we are already seeing. While the eighth battlefront is tied to anti-Zionism, it will not be fought on Israel's shores, but primarily in the Diaspora. The State of Israel will, therefore, increasingly become the anchor and support system for Jews living abroad.

In other words, the front line is global, and Israel's responsibility is widening, not shrinking.

This week, over a hundred people attended a solidarity rally at Tel Aviv University in support of Australian Jews. At least a third of the participants were native Israelis who came out to show support for a community deeply shaken by antisemitism.

Historically, solidarity rallies have been moments when the Diaspora stood with Israel. But that historic pattern is reversing. Now Israel will need to stand with the Diaspora.

Jews must wake up to the reality that the same manifestations of hate that Israel faced on Oct. 7, 2023, are appearing in Australia, Canada, Sweden, and across the globe. It may not always be guns and knives – though sometimes it will – but it is the same challenge, the same war, the same lethal hatred aimed at destroying a people.

The fire Israel and Diaspora Jews are experiencing is fueled by the same source.

That brings us back to the central, unavoidable truth: The eighth front is on fire. It threatens Jews everywhere with the same lethal intent as the other seven fronts Israel has been fighting on and near its borders.

If we fail to win the eighth front, if we fail to win the war of ideas, identity, and legitimacy, then the rest of our victories won’t save us.

Mutant meat enters Canada's food supply... and shocked Americans get a nasty surprise

By STACY LIBERATORE, US SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY EDITOR

Published: 17:21 EST, 13 November 2025 | Updated: 08:14 EST, 14 November 2025

Cloned meat will soon enter Canadian grocery stores without safety reviews or labeling.

Health Canada recently scrapped its 22-year-old policy that classified cloned meat as novel foods, removing pre-market safety assessments and allowing these products to be sold with no disclosure.

The move has sparked outrage in the US, where similar products have quietly been on shelves for years without labels.

The FDA approved meat and milk from cloned cattle, swine and goats, along with their offspring, back in January 2008.

Nearly two decades later, many Americans are only now realizing that cloned meat has been part of the food supply all along.

Social media users have reacted with shock and disbelief, calling the situation unacceptable.

Some argued that if cloned meat is allowed, it must at least be clearly labeled with its origin and production method.

Others claim they have unknowingly purchased cloned products and say the FDA has failed American consumers.

Many Americans oppose cloned meat due to concerns about animal welfare, food safety, and ethical or religious objections.

Opponents have highlighted the high rates of suffering in cloned animals, including health problems and miscarriages, and the risk of antibiotics or hormones entering the food supply.

Ethical objections often include a general unease with the technology and fears that it could lead to human cloning.

Even more, cloned meat is not allowed for food production in Europe due to a ban on the cloning of farm animals and the sale of products derived from them

The process to make cloned meat begins with the creation of a genetically identical copy of a 'desirable' animal.

That clone is then bred through normal reproduction, and its offspring eventually enter the food chain as meat, without shoppers having any way to know.

Health Canada has planned to roll out the change next year, after meat from cloned animals and their offspring will no longer be classified as 'novel foods.'

This change eliminates the requirement for pre-market safety assessments and allows products to be sold without any disclosure.

The move has sparked outrage from duBreton, a major Certified Humane and organic pork producer, which sounded the alarm to consumers, saying: 'People have the right to choose for themselves.

'Quietly changing the definition of a novel food takes that choice away.'

The FDA concluded that these foods are not materially different from traditional meat and dairy, and therefore, no special labeling is required, which is the same reasoning as Health Canada.

While cloned animals themselves are rare and expensive, the FDA expects that it is primarily the offspring of clones that enter the food chain.

However, there is no mandatory labeling system in place, meaning American consumers have no reliable way of knowing if the meat or milk they buy comes from a clone lineage.

Consumer advocates have raised concerns that limited data and the lack of transparency undermine informed choice.

They argue that even though the FDA has deemed cloned meat safe, shoppers are effectively buying products derived from cloning without disclosure.

The Center for Food Safety said: 'FDA’s decision flies in the face of massive public opposition to animal cloning, widespread scientific concerns about the risks of eating food from clones, and troubling animal cruelty and ethical concerns associated with the cloning process.

'The [agency] admitted in its own risk assessment that a vast quantity of animal clones are unhealthy and would not be suitable for the food supply.'

In recent years, scientists have cloned other animals, including the rhesus monkey named Retro, who was born in July 2020, making it 'the first live and healthy cloned rhesus monkey.'

It 'is a big step forward that has turned impossible to possible,' Falong Lu, an investigator at the State Key Laboratory of Molecular Developmental Biology, told CNN.

Last year, China became the first country to successfully clone Tibetan goats using the same process scientists used to clone Dolly the Sheep in 1996, the first-ever cloned animal.

Canada Now Euthanizing Its Military

by Anthony Murdoch | Lifesite  November 13th, 2025 12:15 PM

OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) – Canada’s liberal euthanasia laws have made the practice so commonplace that a Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) veteran has said she knows and has “proof” that no less than 20 of her colleagues were offered unsolicited state-sponsored euthanasia.

Kelsi Sheren, who is a CAF veteran, recently told MPs in the House of Commons veterans affairs committee that “over 20 veterans have confirmed being offered MAID.”

“I have the proof, and I have proof of more,” Sheren told the committee during an October 28 meeting.

Conservative MP Blake Richards asked Sheren if she was willing to provide them with evidence to affirm her allegations.

Sheren noted how the 20 veterans have given written testimonies, or actual audio recordings, of when they were offered what in Canada is known as Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD).

“We also have other individuals who are too afraid to come forward because Veterans Affairs has threatened their benefits,” she told MPs, adding that some other veterans were even offered non-disclosure agreements along with “payouts if they were to take it.”

Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) has told the media its “employees have no role or mandate to recommend or raise (MAid). ”

As reported by LifeSiteNews, this is not the first time reports of CAF veterans saying they were offered MAiD.

Indeed, as reported by LifeSiteNews, it was revealed last year that the federal department in charge of helping Canadian veterans appears to have purposefully prevented the existence of a paper after scandalous reports surfaced alleging that caseworkers had recommended euthanasia to suffering service members.

LifeSiteNews recently published a report noting how a Canadian combat veteran and artillery gunner revealed, while speaking on a podcast with Dr. Jordan Peterson, that the drugs used in MAiD essentially waterboard a person to death. Assisted suicide was legalized by the Liberal government of former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in 2016.

A new EPC report has revealed that Canada has euthanized 90,000 people since 2016.

As reported by LifeSiteNews last week, a Conservative MP’s private member’s bill that, if passed, would ban euthanasia for people with mental illness received the full support of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition (EPC).

Russia vows to 'fully act' as US sends warships to Venezuela sparking new WW3 fears

Russia has pledged to be "ready" to help Venezuela as the US continues to reinforce its military presence near the South American nation

By Rebecca Robinson, Alice Scarsi, Alana Loftus

08:04 ET, Thu, Nov 13, 2025 Updated: 10:10 ET, Thu, Nov 13, 2025

Russia has vowed to stand "ready" to assist Venezuela as Donald Trump ramps up the US military footprint near the South American country in what Washington has characterized as a counter-narcotics operation.

Russian Foreign Affairs Minister Sergey Lavrov stated the Kremlin is "ready to fully act within the framework of the obligations that were mutually stipulated in this agreement with our Venezuelan friends", following the nations' signing of a strategic partnership in May.

Although the partnership hasn't taken effect yet, Lavrov indicated it is "getting close". Three months following its signing, Venezuela inaugurated a facility to manufacture Kalashnikov ammunition, and last month, a sanctioned Russian cargo plane recognized for delivering defense materials touched down in Venezuela. It comes after a lip reader exposed Trump's chilling 3-word whisper to Putin' in a major WW3 warning.

Lavrov continued: "Now it is at the final stage of ratification. It states the need to continue our security cooperation, including military-technical cooperation."

Alexei Zhuravlev, a member of a Russian parliamentary defense committee, stated there was nothing preventing Moscow from providing Venezuela "new developments."

He stated: "We supply the country with virtually the entire range of weapons, from small arms to aircraft ... The Americans could be in for some surprises.", reports the Express.

Although Venezuela hasn't yet sought military aid or Russian armaments, a senior Russian official hinted that Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missiles might be dispatched. This development comes as the US ramps up its military footprint close to the South American nation, with the White House asserting it's intensifying efforts against drug trafficking.

On Tuesday, the USS Gerald R. Ford, the world's largest aircraft carrier, reached waters off Venezuela, accompanied by three additional warships.

Thousands more personnel are expected to join them. Since early September, US operations targeting suspected drug vessels in the Southern Caribbean and eastern Pacific have resulted in at least 75 fatalities.

In reaction, defense minister Vladimir Padrino Lopez deployed 200,000 troops throughout Venezuela to counter the "threat" posed by the US.

Colombian President Gustavo Petro has also directed security and intelligence agencies to cease information sharing with the US.

It comes as Putin was left embarrassed as ‘clone’ hideouts were accidentally exposed by the Kremlin.

Wall Street's dreaded 'fear index' explodes higher as brutal stock sell-off intensifies

READ MORE: Struggling automaker stuns Wall Street with update

By BEN SHIMKUS, US CONSUMER REPORTER

Published: 14:11 EST, 13 November 2025 | Updated: 16:46 EST, 13 November 2025

Wall Street had a rough Thursday.

By midday, all three major indexes — the Dow, Nasdaq, and S&P 500 — closed deep in the red, down between 1.3 and 2.2 percent.

Only one big mover ended in the green: the Volatility Index, or VIX — better known as Wall Street's fear gauge. Around 2pm ET, it was up nearly 20 percent before closing with a 15 percent gain.

The VIX tracks how volatile investors expect the stock market to be over the next 30 days, based on options prices for the S&P 500.

When it spikes, it's a sign investors are nervous; when it cools off, the market's feeling pretty chill.

Today's surge shows Wall Street is still on edge, as doubts about AI-fueled stock gains creep in.

Among the skeptics is Michael Burry, the Big Short investor who predicted the 2008 financial crash. Last week, it emerged he has now made a huge bet that Nvidia's share price will fall.

Then, on Tuesday, Masayoshi Son, one of tech's most–watched investors, revealed he quietly sold off all his Nvidia shares and most of his stake in T-Mobile last month.

Both moves were read as a warning sign that the AI boom — the same one that has powered record stock gains for companies including Nvidia, Microsoft, and Palantir — might finally be wobbling.

The moves from some of Wall Street's biggest names also come after researchers at MIT found that '95 percent of organizations are getting zero return' from their AI investments.

Tech stocks have been hardest hit as jittery traders continue to dump the once-red-hot AI names, fearing their sky-high valuations have finally run out of steam.

The Nasdaq, which started the week on a firm footing, was on track for a third straight day of losses — dragged down by giants like Nvidia, Broadcom, and Google-parent Alphabet.

'There's a lot of uncertainty about the state of the economy,' Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Spartan Capital Securities, told Reuters.

'What we're going through is a little bit of a correction in the market in the AI sector, and we're seeing market rotation.'

But not everyone is panicking about the tech rout. Some analysts argue that the slump is merely the market catching its breath after months of AI hype.

'It seems like a natural consolidation to me,' Ron Albahary, chief investment officer at Laird Norton Wealth Management, told CNBC, calling the pullback 'healthy.'

At some point, all this capital expenditure is going to actually manifest itself.'

Still, even companies that aren't relying on AI are in the red today. Adding to the sell-off, traders slashed their expectations for a December Fed rate cut.

The odds fell from nearly 63 percent yesterday to under 50 percent today, according to CME data.

Lower interest rates are good for stocks because they make borrowing cheaper — for both businesses and ordinary Americans, who can then spend more.

The Fed, which has a dual mandate to keep unemployment between four and five percent and inflation around two percent, is battling how to quell layoffs and end consumer price increases.

The central bank cut interest rates twice this year.

NATO conducted multiple military operations across Europe this week in close proximity to the Russian border.

On Wednesday, November 12, air force jets from NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Norway executed a series of operations throughout northern Europe and near the borders with Russia and Ukraine.

A Norwegian P-8A "Poseidon" Maritime Patrol and Surveillance Aircraft was spotted flying toward the Barents Sea, operating in waters adjacent to northern Russia. Simultaneously, a US Air Force RC-135U "Combat Sent" electronic surveillance aircraft (callsign JAKE37) and a NATO E-3A "Sentry" Airborne Early Warning and Control aircraft (NATO01) were traveling eastward for standard patrols near Eastern Europe. It comes after a lip reader revealed the chilling 3-word promise that Donald Trump whispered into Vladimir Putin's ear.

In addition, two US Air Force KC-135 Stratotankers were refueling a pair of B-52H "Stratofortress" long-range bombers over the North Sea before proceeding toward Finland. These missions encompass intelligence collection, aerial refueling and deterrence operations.

While these represent standard operational activities, they also demonstrate ongoing preparedness during a period of heightened regional tensions.

According to Flightradar24, the American JAKE37 took off from RAF Mildenhall in the United Kingdom at 7:05am, flying directly toward Finland's frontier with Russia. The aircraft completed several circuits before returning over the Baltic Sea, reports the Express.

NATO's Sentry aircraft, known as NATO01, was recently spotted on radar over Poland before it proceeded to Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia.

These planes are modified Boeing 707s with a unique rotating radar dome that serves as mobile command and control centers, offering air surveillance, battle management, and long-range radar to detect and track aircraft over a broad area.

The NATO Airborne Early Warning and Control Force (NAEW&CF), based in Geilenkirchen, Germany, operates a fleet of these aircraft.

Several RAF jets have also been observed conducting operations over Estonia, including an Airbus KC2 Voyager (RRR9915) and a Eurofighter Typhoon (RRR9911). These were seen circulating near the US Air Force's Boeing B-52H Stratofortress, which had earlier flown across Sweden and Finland after traveling from southern Europe.

Several French A330 Multirole Tanker Transports (MRTT) also left Istres-Le Tubé Air Base in Southern France, heading east towards Romania.

A German Air Force Airbus A400M Atlas was also sighted over Latvia.

It comes as Russia is ‘starting preparations for full scale nuclear tests for first time in 35 years’.

Metal Wall Going Up Around Mexico Presidential Palace

Hal Turner World November 12, 2025 Hits: 20818

Real trouble is brewing down in Mexico; the kind of trouble that topples governments. Mexico's (Oy Vey) President, Claudia Sheinbaum, got the word through Israel: She ordered a solid metal wall be immediately welded into place around the Presidential Palace.

Workers began URGENTLY installing the wall yesterday and have worked all through the night, welding the pieces together.

Word on the street in Mexico is that Sheinbaum was told the US is not merely going to strike Drug Cartels in Venzuela; they're allegedly going to hit them in Mexico, too.

Sheinbaum knows she cannot openly side with the Cartels, and cannot defend against any US Military actions, but the widespread RUMORS say the Cartels own her and will demand she take defense action - which would be futile.

When the Cartels see they're NOT getting cover from the Mexican government, they are likely to move against Sheinbaum to forcibly overthrow her.

Hence, the metal wall.

The urgency with which this wall is going up comes just as the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier and its Strike Group, enter the SOUTHCOM Area of Responsibility (AOR) bringing utterly enormous firepower to a region already seeing an incredible massing of naval assets by the US.

So whatever is going to happen, seems very likely to start - with a bang - very, VERY soon.

Mexico is worried.

France Announces That It Will Help Draft The Constitution For A Palestinian State As Israel And Iran Move Toward War

November 12, 2025

There have been stunning new developments in the Middle East. France and the Palestinian Authority have agreed to establish a joint committee to draft a constitution for a Palestinian state. Needless to say, this will give French President Emmanuel Macron a tremendous amount of power to shape what a future Palestinian government will look like. But the mainstream media in the western world is hardly saying anything about this.

It is being reported that Iranian missile factories are “working around the clock” so that the Iranians can fire up to 2,000 missiles at once when the current pause in hostilities inevitably fails…

Tensions between Iran and Israel are once again reaching a dangerous peak. Intelligence reports cited by The New York Times warn that Tehran is preparing for a much larger and deadlier confrontation than before. Iran’s missile factories are working around the clock, and its military is reportedly building the ability to launch up to 2,000 missiles at once at Israel — a dramatic escalation compared to the 500 missiles fired over 12 days during the June 2025 clashes.

This time, both countries are moving beyond ordinary military posturing. Iran is preparing for a fast, overwhelming strike, while Israel is strengthening its defenses — not only against ballistic missiles but also developing new systems to intercept hypersonic weapons, a threat that could soon enter the Middle East battlefield.

During the 12 Day War, the Iranians fired a few missiles at a time, and that made it fairly easy for the Israelis to intercept them.

When fighting resumes, the Iranians hope to overwhelm Israeli defenses by firing vast numbers of missiles simultaneously.

Multiple Iranian officials have made it clear that Iran’s missile arsenal hasn’t just been rebuilt. According to them, it is now far better than it was during the 12 Day War…

“Iran’s missile power today far surpasses that of the 12-Day War,” Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi recently declared, touting what he described as the regime’s rapid recovery from the massive U.S. and Israeli bombardment that struck dozens of military and nuclear sites in June. “The enemy in the recent 12-day war failed to achieve all its objectives and was defeated,” he said.

His comments were echoed by Defense Minister Brig. Gen. Aziz Nasirzadeh, who claimed that Iran’s defense industry has not only rebounded but expanded. “Iran’s defense production has improved both in quantity and quality compared to before the 12-day Israeli-imposed war in June,” Nasirzadeh said Monday, insisting that new missiles are rolling off production lines faster than ever.

Will the Israelis just sit back and allow the Iranians to mass produce thousands upon thousands of missiles?

According to Newsweek, the Israelis consider both Iran’s nuclear program and Iran’s missile program to be “existential threats”…

Israel’s perspective reflects the urgency these developments create. Israeli officials view Iran’s nuclear and missile advances as existential threats. Although Israel’s June offensive was halted under U.S. pressure, officials reportedly consider the work unfinished and see no barrier to resuming strikes if Iran continues advancing its nuclear and missile programs.

I don’t think that it will be too much longer before fighting resumes.

And once it does, will it be for all the marbles?

The Jerusalem Post is telling us that there are some Israeli officials that are pushing for regime change in Iran before President Trump leaves office in 2029…

Certain Israeli officials have increasingly been dropping anonymous threats to Iran in the global and Israeli media to try to deter it from its ongoing push to rebuild its nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles programs. One of the latest threats was that Israel should strive with the US for regime change before US President Donald Trump exits office in 2029.

Of course at the moment Israel is occupied with Hamas in the south and Hezbollah in the north.

In both cases a ceasefire is supposed to be in effect, but in both cases the IDF has continued “to conduct operations on both fronts”…

It’s been one month since Israel and Hamas reached the first phase of a Gaza ceasefire proposed by President Donald Trump, and the anniversary looms of a separate U.S.-backed truce in Lebanon reached between Israel and Hezbollah in November 2024, yet the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) continues to conduct operations on both fronts.

IDF spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Nadav Shoshani argued that Israeli attacks in the two countries are justified due to ongoing enemy action and attempts to rebuild capabilities ravaged by the two-year war that has rocked the Middle East.

“I think what’s clear is that Hamas and Hezbollah, in the north in a similar way, are interested in violating the agreement,” Shoshani told Newsweek at a briefing on Tuesday. “They’re interested in the agreement being held on our side, and they’re interested to violate it without any consequences.”

In the short-term, I don’t think that there is going to be peace.

In fact, I think that the Middle East could erupt in flames at any moment.

But once the war is finally over, the “international community” is going to push extremely hard for a Palestinian state to be established.

On Tuesday, France announced that it will be helping the Palestinian Authority to “draft a constitution for a future state”…

France hosted Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Paris for a meeting on Tuesday, during which French President Emmanuel Macron committed to helping the PA draft a constitution for a future state.

Macron, whose country led the charge in recognizing a Palestinian state during the UN General Assembly in September, said France and the PA would set up a joint committee to work on drawing up a new framework for the state.

“This committee will be responsible for working on all legal aspects: constitutional, institutional and organizational,” he told reporters, adding that Abbas had presented him with the first draft of a potential constitution.

This is enormous news.

So why isn’t it getting a lot more coverage?

Along with France, Saudi Arabia has also been one of the leading advocates for a Palestinian state.

And the Saudis are making it abundantly clear that they will not join the Abraham Accords unless there is a plan to make a Palestinian state a reality…

Trump said last month he hoped Saudi Arabia would “very soon” join other Muslim countries that signed the 2020 Abraham Accords normalizing ties with Israel.

But Riyadh has signaled to Washington through diplomatic channels that its position has not changed: it will sign up only if there is agreement on a roadmap to Palestinian statehood, two Gulf sources told Reuters.

The intention is to avoid diplomatic missteps and ensure alignment of the Saudi and US positions before any public statements are made, they said. One said the aim was to avoid any confusion at or after the White House talks on November 18.

The Saudis will meet with President Trump next week.

They are desperate to see a Palestinian state established.

And they are convinced that Trump is the president that will be able to deliver it.

Of course once a Palestinian state is formally established, we all know what that will mean.

We really are living in historic times, and so many major events are starting to happen right in front of our eyes.

So buckle up and hold on tight, because global events will soon get really crazy.

Iran Seeking To Revive The 'Axis of Resistance' Against Israel

By Khaled Abu Toameh/Gatestone Institute November 13, 2025

While US President Donald J. Trump and his administration are working hard to bring peace to the Middle East and disarm terror groups in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, the Iranian regime and its proxies are doing their utmost to ensure that their Jihad (holy war) to destroy Israel continues in full force.

The Iranian regime is evidently (and understandably) afraid of losing its terror proxies - Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) in the Gaza Strip, Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the Houthis in Yemen. These terror groups, whose primary goal is to eliminate Israel, have suffered severe blows over the past two years as a result of Israeli military operations targeting their leaders and military infrastructure.

Although Iran's terror proxies have been weakened, they are trying to rise from the ashes with the help of their patrons in Tehran.

As part of their effort to foil Trump's Gaza peace plan and attempts to persuade more Arab and Islamic countries to join the Abraham Accords with Israel, representatives of the Iran-backed terror groups attended a conference in Beirut in the first week of November organized by a group called the Arab National Conference.

According to Ziad Hafez, the group's former general secretary:

"The Arab National Conference (ANC) is the prime popular Arab nationalist institution in the Arab world. Over the last three decades it has managed to reframe the Arab nationalist narrative and redefine the concept of Arab nationalism. The positions and statements of the ANC are key to the resurgence of Arab nationalism and to the understanding of events currently taking place in the Arab homeland."

The conference was attended by more than 250 "Arab political, cultural, and resistance figures" from several Arab and Islamic countries. Key speakers included leaders of Hamas, PIJ, Hezbollah, and the Houthis, who declared that the "resistance [terrorism] remains the central path to confronting Israel and expansionist agendas across Palestine and the Middle East."

Ma'an Bashour, a prominent Lebanese political figure, said that "resistance" is not merely military but "a political, cultural, and social framework essential for restoring sovereignty."

ANC Secretary-General Hamdeen Sabahi emphasized the need to counter narratives of Arab defeat. "The nation has won, and the day of Palestine's liberation is near," he said.

Sabahi rejected calls by the Trump administration and the Lebanese government to disarm the Palestinian terror groups in the Gaza Strip and Hezbollah in Lebanon. These weapons, he added, "represent the dignity of the Arab nation."

According to Sabahi, one of the outcomes of Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack on Israel is the victory in New York City's mayoral election of Zohran Mamdani, "who declared his allegiance to Palestine."

The October 7 atrocities, Sabahi said, also showed that the process of normalization between Arab countries and Israel was "condemned to death on the [Arab and Islamic] popular level."

Senior Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya said in a speech before the conference that the October 7 massacres were "a response to attempts to obliterate the Palestinian cause and build a new Middle East."

Al-Hayya added:

"October 7 registered an epic of heroism inside Palestine and on its borders when the nation participated, each according to its ability, in supporting us. The Al-Aqsa Flood [the name Hamas uses to describe the October 7 atrocities] has placed before us a great duty to develop plans and accumulate capabilities to move towards the liberation of Palestine [a euphemism for the destruction of Israel]."

This statement contradicts recent remarks by White House Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, who said that Hamas officials told him and Jared Kushner that the terror group will disarm. In a speech before the America Business Forum in Miami on November 6, Witkoff said:

"Hamas has always indicated that they would disarm. They've said so - they said it to us directly during that famous meeting that Jared had with them. I hope they keep their word..."

If Hamas had any real intention of laying down its weapons, its leaders would not be participating in a conference that has come out in public against disarming terror groups in the Middle East. If Hamas were serious about implementing the Trump plan, it would not be participating in a conference that rejects it.

Ziyad al-Nakhalah, secretary-general of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, the second-largest terror group in the Gaza Strip, and whose members participated in the October 7 attack on Israel, also expressed opposition to any plan to disarm terror groups.

"We are still in the field and we emphasize the need to protect the resistance," al-Nakhalah told the ANC conference. He claimed that the Palestinian terror groups in the Gaza Strip "fought against an international coalition led by the US" over the past two years.

"We emerged from this battle with our weapons in our hands," the PIJ leader said. Referring to the possibility that the terror groups would comply with Trump's plan and lay down their weapons, he said: "Trump's plan has set many obstacles and conditions that cannot be implemented."

According to Sabahi, one of the outcomes of Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack on Israel is the victory in New York City's mayoral election of Zohran Mamdani, "who declared his allegiance to Palestine."

The October 7 atrocities, Sabahi said, also showed that the process of normalization between Arab countries and Israel was "condemned to death on the [Arab and Islamic] popular level."

Senior Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya said in a speech before the conference that the October 7 massacres were "a response to attempts to obliterate the Palestinian cause and build a new Middle East."

Scribe note:  The news story continues and ends with this statement ..

The war in the Gaza Strip may be over, but the Islamist terrorists' desire to destroy Israel remains as strong as ever.

Earthquake swarm hits San Francisco Bay area with back-to-back tremors

By Michael Zennie Published Nov. 9, 2025, 1:20 p.m. ET

An earthquake swarm pounded the San Francisco Bay Area on Sunday morning with a series of back-to-back tremors.

The cluster of six quakes, ranging from 2.9 to 3.8 on the Richter scale, began at 9:38 a.m. and continued for about four minutes.

Residents in Emeryville, Dublin and San Ramon reported feeling jolts, according to local media.

“Felt a lot stronger than 3.7! I was guessing at least a 5. Strong jolt and rumble,” said an X user from San Ramon.

The temblors — which were all relatively minor, were mostly about five to five and a half miles under the surface, according to the US Geological Survey.

The quakes hit about 25 to 30 miles east of San Francisco.

DC housing market in crisis as shutdown takes economic toll

READ MORE: Five-alarm warning for housing market across the US

By MARIANNE GARVEY, US REAL ESTATE REPORTER

Published: 20:36 EST, 8 November 2025 | Updated: 20:54 EST, 8 November 2025

The Washington housing market is showing serious cracks as the federal government shutdown drags on.

New data reveals double-digit drops in home listings and fading buyer interest across the area.

Since the shutdown began on October 1, searches for new home listings have fallen more than 11 percent, reports Realtor.com.

More than one in ten of the DC metro workforce is federal employees, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

With many now furloughed, facing buyouts, or worried about missing paychecks, that anxiety is spreading into housing.

'Right now we've got the highest inventory in DC for the last five years,' senior vice president at Sotheby's International Realty, Corey Burr, told Daily Mail.

'It's the longest days on market in the last five years, at an average of 47 days for DC proper. That's 50 days longer than any other area in the region.'

Burr said the combination of the DOGE worker purge and the shutdown has frozen many buyers in place.

'The federal government workers who are being affected by buyouts or furloughed or not being paid right now have put real estate purchases on hold,' Burr said.

Another stat from the Greater Capital Area Association of Realtors said the median list price is 13.3 percent higher in September 2025, but that that only means things are also being listed at the higher end of the market, bringing up the average.

The average DC home value is currently $583,202.

'I think in the short term there's going to be exponential pressure on the market and the economy the longer this shutdown lasts,' Burr said.

'There's weakening in the economy, there's layoffs were witnessing, the interest rate are around six percent.'

But, burr adds if the interest rates are lowered, he predicts things will bounce back.

'If we can get them down into the mid-fives I anticipate the residential real estate market is gong to have a bump in 2026,' he said.

But for now, the uncertainty about tariffs is also creating economic uncertainty, he said, and the more nervous people become the more buyers and sellers stay put.

It's not only the housing market that looks bleak in DC.

A Bank of America credit and debit card report shows DC consumers are not spending as much as they normally would.

Since the shutdown began, total card spending per household is down more than one percent.

At the root of the problem is the shutdown, which happened on October 1 after Republicans and Democrats failed to pass a new budget.

That put numerous federal programs and public services on hold, and hundreds of thousands of federal workers are currently not receiving a paycheck.

The longer the shutdown continues, the more damage the DC and national economies will see.

The last time an extended shutdown happened, 35 days from December 2018 to January 2019, DC lost nearly $50 million in revenue, according to the city's official financial office.

Burr said he expects things to straighten out when the shutdown ends.

'It's hard for those furloughed or laid off in the federal government, but the region and job market here is so diversified that it's really kind of just a blip in our real estate market,' he said.

Other areas will still be hurting, though.

As of November 1, 42 million Americans dependent on government assistance for food will be cut off.

Funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, also known as SNAP, is set to expire.

The program disburses funds on a monthly basis onto a debit card, which recipients can use to buy grocery items.

The average monthly SNAP benefit is $187 per person, but without a vote to end the government shutdown, that stipend won't be dispensed.

Iran in crisis as major drought forces regime to cut off water to Tehran, consider evacuation

By Shane Galvin  Published Nov. 8, 2025, 3:11 p.m. ET

Iran is set to turn off the water in several regions, including Tehran — as the country falls into the grips of its worst drought in decades.

The Islamic Republic announced it would be shutting off its water supply on Saturday night due to the mounting crisis which will see the capital dry up — with officials contemplating evacuating it, Haaretz reported.

“We are forced to cut off water supply to citizens on some evenings so that reservoirs can refill,” Energy Minister Abbas Alibadi said on state television Saturday.

Alibadi suggested that Iranians install pumps to compensate for the lack of pressure and supply gaps.

“This will help avoid waste even though it may cause inconvenience,” Alibadi said, France24 reported.

President Masoud Pezehkian, in an address broadcast Friday, warned that if there is no rain by December, Tehran’s roughly 10 million inhabitants may be forced to evacuate to other parts of the country, according to the outlet.

There were no additional announcements explaining when and how those potential mass evacuations would take place.

Tehran uses upwards of 790 million gallons of water per day, France24 reported.

Iran’s Amir Kabir dam, one of five reservoirs serving Tehran, currently holds 3.6 billion gallons of water while it held more than six times that amount during the same time last year, the outlet reported.

Pipes in some provinces have already started running dry, according to the outlet.

Iranian officials were aware of the drought conditions in the Middle Eastern nation as far back as July, when Alibadi reported a 31% drop in rainfall, Iran Focus reported.

Half of Iran’s 31 provinces have not seen rainfall in several months, according to France24.

The terrorist-supportive regime was negotiating importing water from neighboring countries Afghanistan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, according to that report.

Iran resides in a subtropical dry belt characterized by many mountains and desert, according to global research group World Data.

Central Iran receives less than 4 inches of rain per year on average, according to that data.

Man Who Fled the Soviet Union is Stunned That People in America Are Embracing Socialism/Communism (VIDEO)

by Mike LaChance Nov. 8, 2025 10:00 pm

The fact that people who live in the United States of America, the most free country to ever exist on the planet, are embracing the concepts of socialism and communism is an indictment of our entire education system.

Independent journalist Katlin Bennett recently spoke to a man who grew up behind the Iron Curtain in the Soviet Union and he is absolutely stunned that this is happening.

This clip is apparently from just before the New York City mayoral election.

Partial transcript via the Donald Trump for President Facebook page:

“I lived behind the Iron Curtain. To want socialism or communism is one of the dumbest things anybody can say in this country.”

“I would literally make it a college requirement to volunteer for three months in a third-world country — that’s the only way they’d realize how good they have it.”

“We made this happen. We wanted better for our kids, so we let them do whatever they want — and we didn’t educate them.”

“I have a friend who has no idea what Auschwitz is. Forty-two years old. How is that even possible?”

Here’s the video:

On a related note, a young woman who came to America from Russia recently posted a very educational video on Twitter/X, where she warns Americans about what they are headed for if they stay on this course.

The problem is that Zohran Mamdani and his supporters think they are smarter than others who came before them, tried socialism, and failed.

They believe they will be the first people to succeed by doing it the right way.

History has already been pretty clear on this.

Multiple Earthquake Swarms Shake The Pacific Ring Of Fire! Are The West Coast Of The U.S. And Mt. Fuji At Risk?

November 9, 2025

Why is the Pacific Ring of Fire suddenly shaking so much? We are being told that the earthquake swarm that is rattling the San Francisco Bay Area could go on “for days”, and Japan has been hammered by a whopping 847 earthquakes within the past 24 hours. Is all of this seismic activity building up to something bigger? Are the west coast and Mt. Fuji potentially at risk?

Just hours ago, dozens of large earthquakes started pounding Japan.

The most significant was a magnitude 6.8 earthquake…

At least 25 earthquakes have struck off the coast of Japan in the last 24 hours, with some reaching strengths over 6.0 in magnitude.

The largest in the series was recorded as a 6.8 magnitude and prompted a tsunami warning that lasted several hours before being canceled, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS).

The quakes ranged in strength from a 4.5 magnitude, with many reaching magnitudes over 5.0, that could cause damage and possible loss of life.

But that is just part of the story.

These bigger earthquakes were part of a giant earthquake swarm that included hundreds and hundreds of smaller earthquakes.

Volcano Discovery is reporting that Japan has been hit by a total of 847 earthquakes just within the past 24 hours…

2 quakes above magnitude 6

13 quakes between magnitude 5 and 6

40 quakes between magnitude 4 and 5

108 quakes between magnitude 3 and 4

253 quakes between magnitude 2 and 3

431 quakes below magnitude 2 that people normally don’t feel.

That is not normal.

Not even close.

When there are lots and lots of small earthquakes, it makes it much more likely that a really big earthquake will strike.

In fact, geophysicist Stefan Burns is warning that the odds of Japan being hit by a magnitude 8 earthquake or greater just went way up…

We all saw what a colossal tsunami did to Japan back in 2011.

But to me, the much greater potential threat is Mt. Fuji.

The government of Japan recently put out an AI video which simulated what a major eruption of Mt. Fuji might look like…

A viral video created with artificial intelligence (AI) shows the catastrophic impact that a volcanic eruption at Mount Fuji could have on Tokyo, Japan, and its 37 million inhabitants. Fortunately, the informational video is not timed to any increased risk of an eruption — it’s merely a public service announcement tied to Japan’s Volcanic Disaster Preparedness Day 2025.

The AI-generated video, released Aug. 22 by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, warns of the speed with which volcanic ash could travel from the volcano to Japan’s capital city before raining down on its roads, buildings, railways and other infrastructure. Clouds of debris from Mount Fuji could reach Tokyo in just one to two hours, subtitles beneath the video read, paralyzing the city’s transport networks, cutting power supplies and affecting the respiratory health of millions of people.

“The moment may arrive without any warning,” the subtitles, translating the video’s narration from Japanese to English, say. “If Mt. Fuji erupted, volcanic ash may fall on Tokyo and impact us in a wide variety of ways.”

Unfortunately, I believe that a worst case scenario would be so much worse than that.

I am convinced that if there is a full-blown eruption of Mt. Fuji, millions of Tokyo residents could die.

The good news is that there are not any major warning signs from Mt. Fuji yet.

But if it starts to huff and puff, I will certainly be writing about it.

On the other side of the Pacific Ring of Fire, an earthquake swarm suddenly began shaking northern California on Sunday morning…

An earthquake swarm hit the San Francisco Bay Area on Sunday morning.

The cluster of up to eight quakes, ranging from 2.5 to 3.8 on the Richter scale, first occurred from 9:38am to 9:41am around southeast of San Ramon.

The last quake hit at 10:42am, less than a mile west of San Ramon.

We are being told that this particular earthquake swarm could keep going “for hours or even days”…

Six earthquakes of magnitude 3.0 or higher struck the East Bay on Sunday morning, part of a swarm of dozens of small earthquakes that could go on for hours or even days, according to seismology experts.

The largest so far was a 3.8 magnitude quake that struck around San Ramon at 9:38 a.m., according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

Residents of Danville, Dublin, Emeryville and San Ramon reported feeling jolts and a short rattle.

We all know that those that are living along the west coast of the United States are living on borrowed time.

“The Big One” that will alter the geography of southern California on a permanent basis is way overdue, and a “megathrust earthquake” along the Cascadia Subduction Zone could send a gigantic wall of water slamming into northern California, Oregon and Washington at any moment. This is something that I have written about extensively…

At this moment, a silent threat is lurking off the west coast, threatening hundreds of miles of coastal territory in the Pacific Northwest with sudden destruction.

Scientists have warned us over and over again that the Cascadia Subduction Zone has the potential to produce a “megaquake” that will instantly turn life upside down for millions of people living along the coast in Oregon, Washington and northern California.

Such an earthquake has the potential to create tsunami waves that are up to 100 feet tall and that travel at speeds of up to 500 miles an hour.

In a subduction zone, one of the Earth’s tectonic plates is literally sliding over another. When energy builds up over time and there is a sudden release, a “megathrust earthquake” can happen.

If a “megathrust earthquake” were to occur along the Cascadia Subduction Zone, the massive amount of energy that would be released would suddenly displace an enormous amount of water.

We are talking about an extremely tall wall of water that stretches for miles in all directions, and it would be traveling so fast that nobody could possibly outrun it.

I can’t even imagine what such a tsunami would look like.

What would you do if a monster tsunami that was dozens of feet tall was coming at you at a speed of 500 miles an hour?

Scientists assure us that it will happen someday.

And the clock is ticking.

Meanwhile, the Philippines was just hit by yet another gigantic typhoon…

At least two people have died and millions of others have evacuated as Super Typhoon Fung-wong ravages the Philippines.

While the typhoon — known locally as Uwan — is the 21st storm to hit the Southeast Asian archipelago this year, it is by far the biggest with an approximately 994-mile wide rain and wind band that could cover two-thirds of the nation, according to The Independent.

As the violent storm threatens the country’s northeastern coast, millions of people have evacuated from villages at risk of flash floods, landslides, and tidal surges.

In 2025, that country has been hammered again and again and again by giant storms.

Here in the United States, on average we have been getting hit by a “billion dollar disaster” about every two weeks for almost three years now.

The “experts” keep assuring us that conditions will return to “normal” eventually.

You can believe that if you want.

But the ground under our feet just continues to rumble, weather patterns just continue to become more unstable, and the Sun just continues to behave in wild and unpredictable ways.

Turkey Issues Own Arrest Warrant For Netanyahu, Pushing Israel Relations To Breaking Point

by Tyler Durden

Authored...

Despite the US-backed ceasefire in Gaza having held for weeks at this point, Turkey is once again lashing out at Israel, and appears ready to push official relations to breaking point.

Turkey has long supported the International Criminal Court (ICC) warrants against top Israeli officials, but has this week issued warrants of its own, including seeking the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and 36 others on charges of genocide

Named alongside Netanyahu are Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, Chief of General Staff Eyal Zamir, and Navy Commander David Saar Salama in the Turkish government arrest warrants. Ankara is further seeking to oblige European states to arrest them.

Given years of ratcheting tensions between the two countries, it was extremely unlikely that Israeli leaders would ever travel to Turkey anyway, but this will continue to also cause problems and create pressures for regular Israeli tourists.

Istanbul Bar Association Chair Yasin Şamlı has denounced what he called the "terror structure of Israel" and highlighted the many countries in the region, including Iran and Qatar, who have endured acts of recent aggression from Israel.

Iran funneled $1 billion to Hezbollah despite sanctions, US senior official warns

All Israel News Staff | Published: November 9, 2025

The U.S. undersecretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, John Hurley, revealed on Friday that the Islamic Republic of Iran has transferred approximately $1 billion to the Hezbollah terrorist organization in Lebanon despite Western sanctions on Tehran’s strained economy. Hezbollah is Iran’s most powerful terrorist proxy and one of the most influential political and military forces inside Lebanon.

Hurley confirmed that the Trump administration’s efforts to cut Iranian funding to Hezbollah are intended to help the Lebanese people “get their country back.”

“There’s a moment in Lebanon now. If we could get Hezbollah to disarm, the Lebanese people could get their country back,” Hurley told Reuters.

“The key to that is to drive out the Iranian influence and control that starts with all the money that they are pumping into Hezbollah,” he added. “Even with everything Iran has been through, even with the economy not in great shape, they’re still pumping a lot of money to their terrorist proxies.”

Hezbollah forces are currently severely weakened after a long and intense war with Israel, where the IDF has targeted the terror group's top leadership, including eliminating its top leader Hassan Nasrallah and killing several thousand Hezbollah operatives. In addition, Israel neutralized the majority of Hezbollah’s once vast missile, rocket and drone arsenal that threatened Israel's national security. Hezbollah agreed to a ceasefire with Israel in November 2024.

In February, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order to put “maximum pressure” on the Iranian regime due to its sponsorship of international terrorism and aggression against Israel and moderate Arab states.

The executive order states that the Iranian regime is “the world’s leading state sponsor of terror,” asserting that it “bears responsibility” for the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks carried out by its Gaza proxy, Hamas, as well as for supporting Houthi attacks, and that it “commits grievous human rights abuses.”

On Friday, Mexico announced its cooperation with Israeli and American intelligence to prevent an Iranian plot to assassinate Israeli Ambassador Einat Kranz-Neiger.

In addition to Washington’s “maximum pressure” on Tehran, Israel has also targeted Hezbollah’s financial assets and continues targeting Hezbollah’s efforts to rearm and regroup. While Hezbollah is seriously weakened, it is still a powerful militia with considerable influence in Lebanese society and beyond.

Last week, U.S. ambassador to Turkey and special envoy for Syria, Tom Barrack, said Hezbollah still threatens Israel’s security.

“Thousands of missiles in southern Lebanon still threaten Israel,” Barrack warned. “It makes no sense that there is no dialogue between the two countries. Lebanon has no time to waste. It must consolidate its weapons. Israel may respond in Lebanon depending on developments."

Hezbollah is believed to still possess some 20,000 rockets compared to its pre-war arsenal, which likely amounted to between 150,000 and 200,000.

The United States and the newly formed Lebanese government have both urged Hezbollah to lay down its arms, but the group has shown no willingness to comply. Lebanese Armed Forces, already overstretched and under-resourced, allegedly lack the capacity to confront or disarm Hezbollah, leaving the organization firmly in control of its arsenal. Israeli officials warn that, rather than scaling back, Hezbollah is actively expanding and modernizing its military capabilities. Barrack – who had initially expressed hope for the new Lebanese leadership – acknowledged that Lebanon has effectively slipped into failed-state status.

“Lebanon is a failed state,” Barrack said. “It has no central bank; its banking system has collapsed. There is no electricity; people depend on private generators. Even water and education are provided by private suppliers. The state is Hezbollah, which in the south provides water and education."

Meanwhile, Tehran reportedly continues to develop closer ties with China and Russia in an effort to circumvent the Western sanctions.

80% Of Released Terrorists Who Murdered Israelis Return To Violence

Israel's internal security service, the Shin Bet, presented data this week that cut through political rhetoric and exposed a stark pattern: approximately 80 percent of convicted terrorists who murdered Jews and were later released from prison returned to terrorism.

The figures were delivered during a Knesset committee hearing examining recent and past prisoner releases tied to hostage and ceasefire deals. As part of the most recent U.S.-brokered ceasefire agreement, nearly 2,000 Palestinian security prisoners were released. Many had been convicted of violent attacks against Israeli civilians and soldiers.

The Shin Bet noted that the same pattern appeared following the 2011 Gilad Shalit exchange, when more than 1,000 Palestinian security prisoners were freed. About half returned to terrorism, but among those convicted of murder, the rate rose to 80 percent. At the time of the Shalit deal, around 850 of the released prisoners were described as having dam al yedeihem (blood on their hands). Today, only about 110 remain incarcerated, despite original sentences that in many cases were meant to keep them in prison for life.

The committee also heard that since the Shalit exchange, approximately 80 percent of terrorists sentenced to life terms have eventually been released through subsequent hostage or ceasefire deals. The Shin Bet further reported that about 4,000 security prisoners have been released since the October 7 attacks in various negotiated arrangements.

For MK Limor Son Har-Melech of the Religious Zionism party, the numbers echoed personal history. Her husband, Shuli Har-Melech, was shot and killed by Palestinian terrorists in 2003. The commander of the cell that carried out the attack was sentenced to seven life terms plus 20 years. Son Har-Melech told the committee that the terrorist openly mocked the sentence in court, saying Israelis were weak and that he expected to be released. He was freed after about two years.

The data presented raises a direct and consequential question: how does Israel safeguard its citizens when prisoner releases, intended as humanitarian gestures, repeatedly strengthen those actively committed to carrying out further attacks?

The Bible establishes the weight of this issue with precise clarity: "You shall not pollute the land in which you live; for blood pollutes the land, and no expiation can be made for the land for the blood that is shed in it, except by the blood of the one who shed it" (Numbers 35:33). The Sages taught that when justice is not upheld in matters of bloodshed, the land itself becomes endangered. Allowing murderers to return to public life without accountability undermines not only security but the moral structure of the nation.

The committee also examined the Palestinian Authority's pay-for-slay program, under which terrorists imprisoned for attacking Israelis receive monthly salaries that increase based on the severity of their crimes. Many of the prisoners released in previous deals became millionaires through accumulated payments and bonuses. Israeli intelligence officials told lawmakers that a significant number of the Hamas terrorists who participated in the October 7 attacks are currently being paid through this program. None of those tied directly to the October 7 massacre were included among the newly released prisoners, but the financial incentives that reward violence remain unchanged.

The Shin Bet concluded that as long as the pay-for-slay system continues to function, released prisoners reenter an environment that celebrates and funds further violence. The cycle of release followed by renewed attacks is not an accident of circumstance. It is the expected outcome of a system designed to perpetuate terrorism.

This is not a question of political ideology or diplomatic posture. The numbers represent real victims, real families, real graves. Decisions made now will determine whether the pattern repeats, or whether the land is defended with clarity and resolve.

Job Cuts Explode – Up 65 Percent Compared To Last Year – The Employment Market Has Become A Twisted Game Of Musical Chairs

November 6, 2025 by Michael

It is starting to look a lot like the Great Recession again. I thought that the pace of layoffs in 2024 was bad, but it has just exploded here in 2025. Vast numbers of good paying jobs are being ruthlessly eliminated, and competition for any decent jobs that are still available has become extremely fierce. In some cases, workers that have many years of experience are applying for hundreds of jobs but are not even able to get a single interview. I have said this before, and I will say it again. If you currently have a job that you highly value, hold on to it as tightly as you can. You don’t want to be left without a chair when the music stops playing.

On Thursday, we got the latest employment numbers from Challenger, Gray & Christmas, and they are extremely sobering…

U.S.-based employers announced 153,074 job cuts in October, up 175% from the 55,597 cuts announced in October 2024. It is up 183% from the 54,064 job cuts announced one month prior, according to a report released Thursday from global outplacement and executive coaching firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

“October’s pace of job cutting was much higher than average for the month. Some industries are correcting after the hiring boom of the pandemic, but this comes as AI adoption, softening consumer and corporate spending, and rising costs drive belt-tightening and hiring freezes. Those laid off now are finding it harder to quickly secure new roles, which could further loosen the labor market,” said Andy Challenger, workplace expert and chief revenue officer for Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

I specifically warned that the pace of job cuts was accelerating.

But these numbers are so bad that they even surprised me.

183 percent higher than last month and 175 percent higher than last October?

Are you kidding me?

The number of job cuts in the U.S. hasn’t been this high during the month of October since 2003.

That was 22 years ago.

Just think about that.

Overall, during the first 10 months of 2025 the number of job cuts was 65 percent higher than during the first 10 months of 2024…

Through October, employers have announced 1,099,500 job cuts, an increase of 65% from the 664,839 announced in the first ten months of last year. It is up 44% from the 761,358 cuts announced in all of 2024.

When the number of job cuts increases by 65 percent in just one year, you have got a major crisis on your hands.

And this is just the beginning.

We were warned that AI would be taking a lot of our jobs, and that is precisely what is starting to happen…

Challenger reports the highest level of layoffs coming from the technology sector amid a time of restructuring due to AI integration. Companies in the sector announced 33,281 cuts, nearly six times the level in September.

How many times have I written about this over the past few years?

A lot of people thought that this would be a threat that we would be facing “someday”, but the truth is that it is a threat that we are facing now.

Eventually, AI and robots will be able to do almost everything less expensively and more efficiently than humans can.

What will we be needed for then?

With each passing day, we get more bad news.

For example, we just learned that Outback Steakhouse “abruptly closed 21 restaurants in October”…

Outback Steakhouse abruptly closed 21 restaurants in October as it begins a “comprehensive turnaround strategy” to keep up with its trendier competitors.

Bloomin’ Brands, Outback’s parent company, disclosed in its earnings report Thursday that in addition to those closures, an additional 22 locations will not have their leases renewed and will shutter over the next four years.

More restaurants are being closed every single day.

More stores are being closed every single day.

And more mass layoffs are occurring every single day.

It is time to wake up.

Meanwhile, household debt in the United States just set another brand new record high as families wrestle with our seemingly endless cost of living crisis…

Total household debt climbed to a record $18.6 trillion last quarter, and while most borrowers remain on track with payments, young Americans are feeling the pressure.

During the third quarter, 3 percent of outstanding balances became seriously delinquent — 90 days or more past due — the largest quarterly increase since 2014, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Among those ages 18 to 29, the rate was about 5 percent — more than double a year earlier and the highest of any age group.

Much of that strain reflects missed student loan payments, with total outstanding debt climbing to a record $1.65 trillion last quarter.

Delinquency rates are really starting to spike just like we witnessed in 2008 and 2009.

As I mentioned yesterday, the credit card delinquency rate just hit the highest level that we have seen since 2011.

For a long time, people have been piling up enormous amounts of debt in a desperate attempt to maintain their former lifestyles, but now vast numbers of U.S. consumers are simply tapped out.

The top 20 percent of the population still has plenty of money to spend, but most of the rest of us are deeply struggling…

While the top fifth of earners now account for almost two thirds of spending — a record — the bottom 80%, which made up nearly 42% of spending before the pandemic, now accounts for just 37% of it, according to Moody’s Analytics. Low- and middle-income shoppers are spending less on all sorts of merchandise like apparel and toys, especially since tariffs were announced earlier this year, data from research firm Circana show.

Student loan payments have resumed and the ranks of subprime borrowers are on the rise, according to credit reporting firm TransUnion. Concerns about inflation — particularly for necessities like rent and groceries — persist, alongside slower pay gains, tepid hiring and more layoffs. And the shutdown has made matters worse for millions, with disruptions to food aid benefits and child care as well as spiking health insurance premiums.

Hopefully this government shutdown will be resolved soon.

But right now there is no end in sight.

One official that works for the the Rhode Island Department of Human Services is claiming that one impoverished woman is concerned that if food stamp benefits are completely cut off “she’d have to go back to eating cat food”…

Since then, family recipients have clogged phone lines and seniors and disabled recipients have lined up outside the Rhode Island Department of Human Services building where Stacy Smith, president of AFSCME local 2882 works in hopes of getting more information about where they can go for food or help.

Smith spoke to USA TODAY in her role as a union representative.

“We had a client that came in and was afraid she’d have to go back to eating cat food,” Smith said. “It’s so frustrating and disheartening. We’re talking about humans, these are people, these aren’t statistics, these aren’t numbers on a paper, these are human lives. Children, elderly, veterans, working moms, working dads. That is who we serve.”

I have heard from so many people out there that are facing nightmare scenarios because of the shutdown.

If you have never been in a situation where you don’t know where your next meal is going to come from, it may be difficult to identify with what these people are going through right now.

The level of emotional stress in this country is moving into uncharted territory, and this is particularly true for our young people…

63% of young adults (ages 18-34) and 53% of parents have considered leaving the U.S. due to the state of the nation

Half of all adults report signs of loneliness, while 69% say they needed more emotional support this year than they received

AI anxiety nearly doubled among students (78%, up from 45%) and surged across all age groups in just one year

75% of Americans are more stressed about the country’s future than before, with political division tied to isolation, physical symptoms, and daily struggles

If people are this stressed out now, what is going to happen when things really start hitting the fan?

A lot of these stressed out people are simply not going to make it.

It is time to toughen up, because it is going to take an extraordinary amount of toughness to make it through what is ahead.

The system is beginning to fail all around us, and a lot more economic pain is on the horizon.

Socialist Democrats: Tearing Down America’s Foundation

By Frosty Wooldridge|November 5th, 2025 By Frosty Wooldridge November 6, 2025

What are democrat-socialists? How close are they to Communists? How did a refugee from Uganda, who has never worked a day in his life, become mayor of the largest, most capitalistic city in America? What are the mandates of Mamdani’s administration?

First of all, New York City houses 560,000 illegal aliens. American taxpayers pay for their food, hotel rooms, education, medical, crimes, trash, rapes, shoplifting, killings, car-jackings, and drug use. You may add that to 158,000 American homeless in New York City. All of them destroy America’s foundation of laws, work, education and the Social Contract.

Mandani wants to give voting rights to all illegal aliens to vote in city, state and national elections. Here we have a foreign refugee, a Muslim who follows Sharia Law, who wants to undermine and break America’s voting laws. Now, he possesses the power to accomplish his agenda.

“The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is the largest socialist organization in the US. It has nearly 100,000 members and seeks to democratize society by “collectively own[ing] the key economic drivers that dominate our lives.” In other words, communism.

Margaret Thatcher, who brought Great Britain back from the brink of total collapse via socialism, said, “Socialism works great until you run out of everyone else’s money.”

Mamdani wants to “Defund the Police” as if NYC doesn’t have enough crime. He wants to multiply it. He promises “cashless bail” for criminals, repeat criminals, and illegal aliens who commit endless crimes. In other words, Mamdani, who immigration officials think defrauded his entry into America—wants to facilitate crime by making sure that criminals are not locked up. Just set them free after their crimes to repeat more of their crimes in the streets of New York City. That’s how nursing student Laken Riley was killed…let criminals go free so they can kill more Americans.

Foreigners Beginning to Take Over American Politics

“These two members of Congress, both Democrats, helped to bring Democrat Socialists of America (DSA)-style politics to the mainstream in the US. Ocasio-Cortez, who represents parts of the Bronx and Queens in New York, burst onto the scene in 2018 when she defeated incumbent Joseph Crowley.”

If you have ever heard AOC speak, you quickly understand that she’s the reason they place instructions on a bottle of shampoo. Back in college, we called such women “dingbats” or “helium heads.” Guys with similar mental abilities were called, “Dorks.” Formerly a bartender, AOC possesses the common sense and intelligence of a 2-watt light bulb. Yet, she’s being touted as a presidential candidate in 2028. But her district screams crime, hookers, trash everywhere, homelessness, unemployed and illegal aliens into the tens of thousands. She probably cannot solve a third-grade math equation of 3 + 3 =?

“Rashida Tlaib, a Muslim representing Michigan, is the first Palestinian-American woman in Congress and a self-identified democratic socialist. Also elected in 2018, she is a champion of universal healthcare. She is also a firm backer of the idea that unions should negotiate wage contracts.” She also supports installing Sharia Law in America. She enjoys 300,000 Syrian Muslims in her district. When elected, she wrapped herself in the Palestinian flag rather than the Stars and Stripes. In other words, she does not subscribe to the U.S. Constitution. She uses it to further her Islamic Sharia Law agenda. She praised Hamas’ slaughter of Jews. Those 300,000 Muslims in her district practice de facto Sharia Law replete with female genital mutilation of young girls and Honor Killings. In other words, America’s laws and Social Contract mean nothing to her or her Muslim constituents.

Please note that Muslims in Dearborn, Michigan chanted, “Death to America” during the Hamas slaughter of Jews on October 7, 2023. Note that you won’t see an American flag anywhere in that Muslim community. But you will see the Jihad black flag, and 95 percent of those immigrants enjoy free housing and EBT food cards.

Have you ever wondered why 42 million people in America live off food stamps? Half of that number must be from legal and illegal refugees who lack the brains to work, the educational skills to work, and the cultural background to work. That’s why they migrate from their hellhole countries to America where they enjoy a free ride. It’s happening in Europe by the tens of millions of migrants. Every working man and woman in America and in Europe works to feed all those millions of migrants.

“Mamdani’s platform, which argues in favor of rent freezes, fare-free buses and higher taxes on the wealthy, is at the more ambitious end of DSA’s playbook, and is focused on addressing New York City’s affordability crisis. Median rents in the city are $3,400 a month. According to the latest available data from the US Census Bureau, the median monthly income for New York City households is $6,640.”

Millions of New Yorkers must pay for the homeless Americans and illegal aliens. Yet, they keep voting for people like Mamdani who wants to force them into further indentured servitude.

MORE FOREIGNERS DESTROYING THE FOUNDATION OF AMERICA’S ECONOMY OF CAPITALISM

A longtime climate advocate, Shrestha, who was born in Nepal, emerged from the grassroots wing of the DSA. She beat Kevin Cahill, the incumbent Hudson Valley Democrat, in a 2022 election.

How did that happen? Since 1965 when Teddy Kennedy opened the flood gates, 1,000,000 refugees annually, of the world into America with the Immigration Reform Act, we’ve been invaded by every person from 190 different countries with different world views, incompatible economic ideas, and incompatible cultural norms. Their numbers are well over 140 million people since the flood started in 1965.

We’re now composed of the world’s people, and the world’s people do not think or act like Americans. We’ve doomed ourselves into thinking that “Multiculturalism” will always end up becoming Americanism. WRONG! You’re seeing it play out right now in cities across America where foreigners who failed in their own countries are now instituting their “world views” onto our country…so that our country mirrors the countries they fled.

The more people we import with incompatible world views, cultures and languages…the faster we doom ourselves to “Civil War II.” You can smell the violence that democrats scream to their constituents. Charlie Kirk’s murder gives you an idea of what’s coming.

Mamdani will not comply with I.C.E. or any of our Federal Laws. He will not abide by America’s Social Contract. He will only abide by Sharia Law that drives him. Watch for Muslims to congregate deeper into NYC, its politics and its power positions. You are watching a parallel society erupt in our own country. As Americans move out, Muslims and Sharia Law move into the Big Apple. As you watch law and order break down, you will see stores like Macy’s close. Convenience stores will close. Fast food joints will close. How do I know that?

Easy, I lived and worked in Detroit, Michigan in the 1980’s when 1.2 million Americans fled the Motor City. The car-jackings, murders at convenience stores, burned up cars, shoplifting, schools destroyed, and sheer terror drove people out of the city. To compensate for the crime and corruption and loss of people, Congress imported 300,000 Muslims and gave them free housing and food stamps. They’re still on free housing and food stamps.

That’s as long as you keep paying your taxes. Socialism is great until you run out of everybody else’s money. New York City will most like repeat the nightmare of Detroit, Michigan.

Huge crowd of Muslims gather to claim New York City for Islam…

November 6, 2025 (18 hours ago)

What’s happening in New York right now has a lot of Americans on edge, and rightfully so. A massive group of Muslims gathered and publicly claimed the city for Islam. People who watched it unfold aren’t being “bigots” for feeling uneasy.  just days after electing a Marxist mayor.They’re watching their country’s biggest city slip further from the culture that built it,

This issue is about assimilation, or the lack of it. New York City doesn’t belong to any Muslims, and stunts like this don’t create peace or understanding. They create fear, resentment, and deeper divides. Imagine if a group of Christians went to a Middle Eastern capital and declared it “for Christ”; the outrage would be global.

This is the real problem in America right now. We’re not demanding people assimilate to western culture. We’re watching competing groups publicly reject the very culture that made this country so amazing and calling it “diversity.”

A US Muslim Warns the people of America: “We Will Not Stop Until Islam Enters Every Home, Say it as if the Ummah Depends on This.

There is no denying it; Islam intends to dominate all other people and religions.

Muslims claim New York for Islam

“We’re done hiding. We’re done. —This is the correct religion. This is the religion that all of humanity needs to be a part of Islam, and we will not stop until it enters every home.

— I wanna hear it in every single district. It should tremble. Brooklyn should hear it. The Bronx should hear it. Queens should hear it. Say it as if the ummah depends on this, my brothers and sisters — There is no God worthy of worship except Allah — and final prophet, Mohammed.”

We all knew what would happen if this Marxist won. Charlie Kirk knew and warned us about it before he was assassinated.

At the end of the day, anyone who comes to America has a responsibility, too. If you want to belong here, you have to appreciate what this country already is — not try to remake it into the place you left. That means respecting the people who built their lives here, learning the culture, and finding common ground instead of pushing separation.

Assimilation isn’t oppression. It’s how a nation stays united. Without it, we’re just a collection of divided groups living on the same land — and that’s not a country, that’s chaos.

Russians Grab Half a BILLION in NATO Military Gear, Ukraine Now Desperate

Hal Turner World November 04, 2025 Hits: 20054

Russian Army troops have grabbed large stocks of NATO equipment and military property worth about half a billion dollars remain in the area of Ukrainian city of Pokrovsk, which the AFU did not have time to take out of the city.

"In Krasnoarmeysk (Pokrovsk) and Dimitrov (Myrnograd), large stocks of NATO equipment and military property worth about half a billion dollars remain, which the Armed Forces of Ukraine did not have time to take out of the city, said reserve lieutenant colonel Oleg Ivannikov.

Ivannikov said that in Pokrovsk and Myrnohrad there are warehouses with NATO machinery and special equipment with a total value of about $ 500 million.

According to him, it is for this reason that Volodymyr Zelensky does not allow the Armed Forces of Ukraine to surrender these cities, despite the difficult situation at the front.

Ivannikov added that the surrender of Pokrovsk and Myrnohrad would put the position of the Ukrainian leadership at risk, since the West would not forgive the loss of NATO's strategic reserves.

According to the officer, the capture of these cities by the Russian Armed Forces will strengthen the offensive on Druzhkovka and Slavyansk.

Earlier, the commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian troops, Alexander Syrsky, announced his intention to unblock Krasnoarmeysk in seven days and ordered to hold positions.

The Russian Armed Forces have already stopped an attempt to land a new group of GUR troops in Krasnoarmeysk. Russian servicemen also destroyed another group of 11 people of the GUR landing force, landed from a helicopter near Krasnoarmeysk.

Those 11 people and two US-Supplied Blackhawk Helicopters were destroyed during what is described as a "Hot Extraction" operation. They were sent to evacuate ACTIVE DUTY NATO TROOPS allegedly from the U.S> Delta Force, accompanied by other active duty NATO member military forces.

Russia has already encircled these forces. If the Russians are able to capture (or kill) active-duty NATO member country troops, taking-up arms on the battle field, this will be the definitive proof Russia needs to show the world that the U.S. and NATO themselves are, in fact, "at war" with Russia.

Capturing or killing such active-duty forces would be a Casus Beli for Russia - cause for war - with the US and NATO.

So desperate is NATO to evacuate these troops, they sent two Blackhawk Helicopters - previously gifted to Ukraine - to try to hot-extract the troops from an active combat zone. Both helicopters landed, and were destroyed y the Russians. The extraction didn't take place.

Now, the race is on to see if NATO can get their troops out before Russia captures or kills them; thereby making the Ukraine war, an actual war with NATO.

The West is, as you might guess, desperate to avoid BEING CAUGHT in direct war with Russia.

Igor Kimakovsky, adviser to the head of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), said that the Ukrainian special services tried several times to evacuate a group of foreigners from the Krasnoarmeysk region by helicopter.

The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that assault groups of the 2nd Army entered and entrenched themselves in the residential area of the Prigorodny microdistrict in Krasnoarmeysk."

Chaos across America as bomb threat halts ALL flights in and out of DC

By STACY LIBERATORE, US SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY EDITOR

Published: 11:56 EST, 4 November 2025 | Updated: 17:43 EST, 4 November 2025

All flights in and out of a Washington DC airport were halted on Tuesday due to a bomb threat on a plane, with delays rippling across the US.

A security emergency was issued at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) at 11.30am ET.

The ground stop was lifted after 1pm ET and replaced with a ground delay, causing average waits of 51 minutes and delays of up to 151 minutes for some flights.

DCA is scheduled to be under a security-related arrival management program until 11.59pm.

The bomb threat was made known after travelers stranded on the runway heard there was an incident on a United flight that landed from Houston, which was quickly surrounded by emergency vehicles.

Ben Radnor posted online: 'On a Delta flight waiting to take off to JFK. Apparently a bomb threat on a United flight that landed from Houston not long ago. Nothing is allowed to move.'

The delays at DCA are now impacting the rest of the country, as grounded and late-arriving flights are creating congestion at other airports.

Passengers can expect knock-on delays nationwide, including at connecting hubs and in parts of Canada.

A DCA spokesman told the Daily Mail that while flights were being held, crews were working to offload passengers on the United Airlines flight, which had been relocated to the east side of the airfield for precautionary measures.

'Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority police are conducting a thorough investigation with the assistance of multiple law enforcement partners,' the DCA spokesperson added.

'Several flights were diverted to other airports during the runway closure.

'People meeting passengers or flying this afternoon should expect delays and check with their airline for updated flight information.'

The threat is reported to have been referred to in leaked radio audio between the air traffic controller and the United pilot.

The recording, reported by NBC affiliate WRC-TV, said: 'I'm sorry I have to do this to you... We have an unconfirmed bomb report for your flight.

'We are going to get you away from the airport.'

S C Byrd, who was stranded at DCA, reported online that his flight was cleared for takeoff at 1.04pm ET.

However, under the security-related arrival management program, only 30 flights per hour are allowed to land at DCA.

The incident happened just minutes before Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy issued a stark warning about the impact of the government shutdown on the airline industry.

'If you bring us to a week from today, Democrats, you will see mass chaos, you will see mass flight delays,' Duffy said.

'You'll see mass cancellations, and you may see us close certain parts of the airspace, because we just cannot manage it.'

Christians Persecuted And Killed Around The World: Christ’s Followers Are Suffering Around The World - Hunted, Beaten, Raped, Burned, Hanged, And Slaughtered

By J.B. Shurk (American Thinker) - All News Pipeline

In 2025, there is no part of the world that is safe for Christians. Leftist prosecutors in Europe, Australia, Canada, and the United States criminalize fundamental tenets of the Christian faith as discriminatory forms of “hate speech.” Chinese communists replace images of Jesus Christ with portraits of Xi Jinping. Hindus beat and murder Christians in India. Islamic nations sentence Christian converts to death. Nigerian Muslims attack Christian churches during prayer services and torture and murder so many Christian worshipers as to constitute genocide. The assassin who murdered Christian martyr Charlie Kirk allegedly did so because he believes that Charlie’s Christian teachings were “hateful.”

It is a dangerous time to be a Christian. Michael Snyder wrote an illuminating article a couple weeks ago entitled “Most of the Population of the World Lives in a Nation Where Christians Are Being Persecuted.” In a sober analysis, he takes the reader on a tour of Christian persecution, torture, and mass slaughter around the planet.

Children in China are prohibited from attending Christian church services, and the Chinese Communist Party rewrites Bible verses to support official pronouncements from the State. Sharing the gospel online is a crime, and Christian pastors are regularly arrested and “disappeared.” In India, Hindu terrorists set Christian churches and Bibles on fire and beat up and murder Christian parishioners. Muslims in Indonesia hunt down Christians as if they were animals. Muslims in Nigeria have massacred or abducted a hundred thousand Christians over the last six years and have destroyed some 20,000 Christian churches and schools. Islamic governments in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iran discriminate against Christians, punish them ruthlessly for their beliefs, and execute anyone brave enough to convert to Christianity. In North Korea, Christianity is outlawed, and practicing Christians who are discovered are summarily executed or condemned to death in labor-intensive concentration camps.

The corporate news media do not report on the systematic persecution and killing of Christians around the world. On Friday, President Trump attempted to do journalists’ jobs for them by addressing the ongoing genocide of Christians in Nigeria. On Truth Social, the president wrote, “Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria. Thousands of Christians are being killed. Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. ... The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in Nigeria, and numerous other Countries. We stand ready, willing, and able to save our Great Christian population around the World!” Nigerian Christians desperately hope that President Trump will find a way to save their brothers and sisters.

Muslims’ slaughter of Christians in Nigeria is so horrific that even left-leaning commentator Bill Maher describes it as a genocide much worse than anything that is happening in Gaza. “They are literally attempting to wipe out the Christian population of an entire country,” Maher told his studio audience a few weeks ago. “Where are the kids protesting this?”

The “kids” are nowhere to be found. Their college professors brainwashed them to see “systemic racism” everywhere it is not but to view Christians as “fascists,” “nationalists,” and even “Nazis.” Leftist billionaires and taxpayer-funded NGOs organize riots to “protest” Israel, “climate change,” duly elected conservative politicians, and “white supremacy.” Those same billionaires and NGOs are completely silent as Christians are massacred because, for many leftists, Christians are the “enemy.”

Western universities and institutions have discriminated against Christians for so many years that leftist lawmakers and leftist voters now openly endorse anti-Christian bigotry.

A new California law mandating that foster parents “affirm a child’s self-identified sexual orientation or gender identity” effectively bans Christian couples from helping children in need. The state of California argues that Christians who object to the “trans” ideology are a “danger” to kids. In other words, only Californians who embrace chemical castration, bodily mutilation, the enabling of mental illness, hormone poisoning, and made-up pronouns are considered sufficiently stable to look after children. As Kevin Snider of the Pacific Justice Institute warns, “there is now a very small step for the state to deem any parent as unfit to raise [his] own children if the family holds a view that contradicts the state’s ideology on gender and sexual orientation. This could result in a visit by Child Protective Services with tragic consequences for the home.” California is coming for Christians’ children.

In Finland, government prosecutors continue to harass Christians for quoting the Bible. In 2019, Päivi Räsänen — a medical doctor, longtime member of Parliament, Finland’s former Interior minister, and the wife of a pastor — used a Bible verse to criticize Finland’s state church for sponsoring an LGBT “pride” parade. After the prominent Finnish Christian publicly stated that males and females are biologically different, police investigators interrogated her for some thirteen hours, forced her to justify her Christian worldview, and demanded that she publicly apologize and recant her Christian beliefs. Because she would not do so and instead defended the authority of God’s Word, she was criminally charged for illegal “hate speech.” Prosecutors have repeatedly asked Finnish courts to “wipe the internet” of Räsänen’s media appearances and writings, in which she has used her medical education and Christian faith to distinguish men from women and to promote the Bible’s moral teachings.

Although two lower courts have acquitted her, prosecutors have appealed and now argue before Finland’s Supreme Court that quoting the Bible should be considered a criminal offense under the country’s war crimes laws. One of Räsänen’s attorneys, Lorcán Price, argues that the outcome of the case will reverberate across Europe because it addresses directly whether a Christian can publicly express the tenets of Christianity. “Can you speak the truth as you see it freely, even if it might offend somebody, or will you be prosecuted for hate speech?”

However Finland’s Supreme Court decides, governments across Europe continue to persecute Christians and criminalize Christianity. In addressing the implications of Räsänen’s ordeal in Finland, The Federalist’s Joy Pullmann noted recently that citizens in the United Kingdom are regularly arrested for praying silently near abortion facilities, citizens of the Netherlands are arrested for publicly expressing a pro-life worldview, and the mayor of Brussels mobilized riot police last year to shut down a conference whose scheduled speakers recognize the scientific reality of two distinct biological sexes. Free speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of association are under sustained attack in Europe. Censorship and discrimination against Christians are pervasive.

If there is a silver lining to this global campaign of persecution against Christians, it is this: Lukewarm Christians and even non-Christians have begun to recognize that they cannot hide and hope for the best during the worldwide war against Christians. The battle between good and evil does not spare the cowardly, the weak-willed, or the naïve. Those who champion the toleration of sin or advocate for the acceptance of incompatible beliefs lay down a red carpet of moral relativism that invites evil to triumph.

One Christian pastor in Ohio, Michael Clary, wrote an essay in which he describes how Charlie Kirk’s assassination roused him from hypnotic conditioning to be “inoffensive” and made him realize that only bold defenses of the Christian faith can confront and defeat evil. Weak Christians not only invite sin into the world, but also invite greater persecution against Christians. What Charlie Kirk proved through his short time on Earth is that Christian courage and strength must be renewed. Or, as writer Michael Austin eloquently observes, “Christian leaders must pave the way in confronting the works of darkness with the gospel of light, without compromise or cowardice.”

Christ’s followers are suffering around the world. They are hunted, beaten, raped, burned, hanged, and slaughtered. The governments of formerly Christian countries insist on making Christ’s teachings a crime. Chinese, European, and American officials wish to censor the Bible. Christians must find faith and courage to face these evils now. Because much worse is sure to come.

3 more Chinese researchers at University of Michigan charged over alleged effort to smuggle biological materials: ‘Alarming pattern’

By Victor Nava Published Nov. 6, 2025, 1:58 a.m. ET

Three Chinese nationals working at a University of Michigan research lab were hit with federal charges Tuesday related to an alleged conspiracy to smuggle biological material into the United States for China.

The charges are the latest in a series of cases tied to the Ann Arbor, Mich. school that have raised concerns about the threat of biological terrorism emanating from China.

“Allegedly attempting to smuggle biological materials under the guise of ‘research’ is a serious crime that threatens America’s national and agricultural security,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement. “We will remain vigilant to threats like these from foreign nationals who would take advantage of America’s generosity to advance a malicious agenda.”

Jerome Gorgon, the US attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan, said the three men charged are part of a “long and alarming pattern of criminal activities committed by Chinese Nationals under the cover of the University of Michigan.”

“At some point, pattern becomes practice,” Gorgon said in a statement, describing the alleged smuggling effort as a “threat to our collective security.”

Xu Bai, 28, and Fengfan Zhang, 27, were charged with conspiracy to smuggle biological materials into the US.

Zhiyong Zhang, 30, was charged with making false statements to federal agents about the alleged scheme.

All three men were J-1 visa holders and had been conducting research at the University of Michigan’s Xianzhong Xu (Shawn Xu) laboratory, according to authorities.

Between 2024 and 2025, Bai and Fengfan Zhang received multiple shipments from China containing “concealed biological materials related to round worms.”

The worms, which had “genetic modifications,” had been sent by Chengxuan Han, a Ph.D student in Wuhan who later came to the US to work at the same University of Michigan lab.

Han was charged with smuggling and making false statements in June. She pleaded no contest and was removed from the US in September and barred from re-entering.

The same month Han was arrested, a Chinese national couple was hit with criminal charges related to an alleged effort to smuggle a dangerous fungus into the US capable of destroying crops and poisoning humans and livestock.

The couple – Zunyong Liu and Yunqing Jian – had intended to use the University of Michigan lab “to further their scheme,” according to prosecutors.

“After Han’s arrest and removal from the United States, UM initiated an internal investigation into the Shawn Xu laboratory,” according to the Justice Department. “All three defendants refused to attend a mandatory meeting or participate in the investigation and so were terminated.”

Between 2024 and 2025, Bai and Fengfan Zhang received multiple shipments from China containing “concealed biological materials related to round worms.”

After being fired, Bai, Fengfan Zhang and Zhiyong Zhang booked flights out of both Detroit Metropolitan Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport back to China.

The trio didn’t show up for the flight out of Detroit, or cancel the booking, and instead traveled to the New York City airport, where they were interviewed by federal law enforcement agents.

“Z. Zhang made false statements about Han,” according to prosecutors. “Bai and F. Zhang told [Customs and Border Protection] officers they had received packages from Han including after her arrest or removal from the United States.”

FBI Director Kash Patel said the charges demonstrate that federal authorities will “aggressively investigate and hold accountable those who violate our laws, and that academic research cannot excuse illegal activity.

“The Chinese nationals charged today allegedly were involved in smuggling biological materials into the US on several occasions. The FBI and our partners are committed to defending the homeland and stopping any illegal smuggling into our country,” Patel added.

The case was investigated by agents with the FBI, CBP, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Homeland Security Investigations.

Illinois Senate passes assisted suicide bill hidden in unrelated legislation

All hopes now rest with convincing Democrat Gov. JB Pritzker to veto the euthanasia measure, which was snuck into a food preparation bill.

Tue Nov 4, 2025 - 7:24 pm EST

(LifeSiteNews) – The Illinois Senate ended October by quietly giving final legislative approval to a measure that would legalize physician-assisted suicide by sneaking its language into an unrelated bill.

Live Action reported that standalone legalization legislation failed to make it through either Democrat-controlled chamber of the state legislature earlier in the year, but activists had greater success smuggling it into an unrelated bill on food sanitary preparation rules. The amendment to the bill, passed previously in the state House and now the Senate as well, states that “Medical aid in dying is part of general medical care and complements other end-of-life options, such as comfort care, pain control, palliative care, and hospice care.”

It now goes to the desk of Democrat Gov. JB Pritzker for final signature.

“This proposal would legalize the abandonment of the desperate, dressing suicide as ‘dignity’ while the state and conniving doctors washes their hands of the duty to protect life. My heart breaks for every soul in such pain that death seems the only door,” warned Calvin Lindstrom, pastor of Church of Christian Liberty in Arlington Heights. “May God’s people bring a witness of true hope in the face of death.”

Despite Pritzker’s extreme pro-abortion bias, the fact that even Democrat-controlled chambers did not support the original upfront version of legalization provides hope that the governor will find the move politically untenable if enough public attention is marshalled. The Illinois Family Institute is urging residents to email the governor through this link to urge him to veto the bill.

Ten U.S. states plus the District of Columbia currently allow assisted suicide. If this bill is signed, Illinois will become the 11th. Legalization bills are also currently being considered in Montana and New York.

As Patients Rights Action Fund (PRAF) executive director Matt Vallière has argued, current euthanasia programs in the United States constitute discrimination against patients with life-threatening conditions in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, as when a state will “will pay for every instance of assisted suicide” but not palliative care, “I don’t call that autonomy, I call that eugenics.”

Live Action’s Bridget Sielicki further noted that “because a paralytic is involved, a person can look peaceful, while they actually drown to death in their own bodily secretions. Experimental assisted suicide drugs have led to the ‘burning of patients’ mouths and throats, causing some to scream in pain.’ Furthermore, a study in the medical journal Anaesthesia found that a third of patients took up to 30 hours to die after ingesting assisted suicide drugs, while four percent took seven days to die.”

Support is available to talk to those struggling with thoughts of ending their lives. The Suicide & Crisis Lifeline can be reached by calling or texting 988.

After Introducing An All-In-One Digital ID Surveillance State App, Russia Now Plans To Implement Internet Age Verification - 'Everything We Do On The Internet Will Be De-Anonymized'

Russia is also currently rolling out biometric ID verification terminals at businesses courtesy of a Russian super bank.

The Wine Press Nov 06, 2025

Russia is becoming the latest country poised to implement digital ID verification checkpoints to access internet content, similar to what the United Kingdom implemented this year, under the pretext of protecting minors from harmful and pornographic content.

In July, the U.K. implemented its controversial Online Safety Act that forces users to upload and confirm their registered identity or provide biometrics to confirm their authenticity to access the majority of content and websites. Not long thereafter, Prime Minister Keir Starmer mandated “Britcard” to purportedly crackdown on illegal immigration and labor.

Russia is doing something similar. In August, The WinePress reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law that would penalize and criminalize those who simply search online for content the government deems “extremist,” while also targeting VPN users.

Furthermore, in September, Russia formally rolled-out its all-in-one digital app called “MAX,” explicitly patterned after China’s WeChat app, which is used by the Chinese authorities to enforce its social credit score. Like WeChat, the MAX app, built by VKontakte (VK), combines digital ID, medical records, banking, social media and messaging, and more all into one app. Elon Musk has said that he plans to turn X into an identical super app as well.

Inevitably, it seems, Russia is now implementing its own online age verification measures, which, as Tech Radar put it, is “putting already precarious internet freedoms on the line.”

Russian media RIA Novosti reported (translated from Russian):

Mandatory identification of users using a passport to gain access to content labeled 18+ on the Internet should be introduced in Russia, this opinion was expressed in a conversation with RIA Novosti by Evgeniy Masharov, a member of the Commission of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation for public examination of bills and other regulations.

He noted that a significant part of Russian teenagers have unlimited access to content labeled 18+, including blogger videos with profanity, scenes of violence and propaganda of antisocial behavior, which leads to the formation of distorted behavior patterns among young people and the loss of cultural guidelines.

“What can be opposed to this in order to correct the situation, to level out the psychological state of still fragile minds is to determine that content labeled 18+ can be available to Russian users only after identification through a passport, driver’s license, and bank data,” Masharov explained.

The expert added that the development of technology cannot be stopped, but measures to protect children and ensure a safe digital space must be taken today. He emphasized that individual minors, under the influence of the Internet environment, find themselves in risky situations, including being involved in illegal actions for the sake of a small reward.

“The Public Chamber of the Russian Federation was the first in the country to systematically provide assistance to victims of the actions of telephone scammers; during the consideration of appeals, it was faced with the fact that the minor audience of the Internet in 25% of cases falls for the tricks of scammers, 5% become first victims and then criminals,” - said Masharov.

According to him, the faster appropriate measures are taken, the fewer minors will be exposed to hostile intelligence services, scammers, online casinos, as well as those who can cause harm, “both moral and physical.”
