The plea from Iran’s regime is clearly a last-ditch effort to hold on to power so the mullahs can keep on torturing, slaughtering and putting out the eyes of their citizens.
Whenever Iran’s regime feels weak, it discovers “negotiations.” In Shia Islam, you are told that if “Islam” is being threatened, you are to practice dissimulation (taqiyya). For Iran’s mullahs, “talks” have always been a tactic to buy time, reduce pressure, and strengthen their hand.
La Corne de l’Afrique s’impose comme l’un des nouveaux “terrain d’affrontement” de la compétition stratégique entre Émirats arabes unis, Arabie saoudite, Israël et puissances régionales. Une lutte d’influence qui fragilise des États déjà instables et fait planer le risque d’un conflit élargi en mer Rouge.
Composée de l’Éthiopie, de la Somalie, du Somaliland, de Djibouti et de l’Érythrée, voisine du Soudan, la Corne constitue la pointe orientale du continent africain, face à la mer Rouge qui la sépare du monde arabe.
This new military law appears, on the surface, to be environmentally friendly, but its essence is dangerous: it continues the policy of land confiscation.
Residents of the town of Ni’lin, west of Ramallah, were surprised by an Israeli military order to confiscate a plot of land under the recently issued Israeli anti-pollution law enforced over the occupied West Bank.
It is hard to tell which, so far, is the greatest scam of the century: “Climate Change” while watching North America enjoying its global warming; Putin’s protestations of wanting peace while demolishing Ukraine, or the trap being lubricatively laid for US President Donald J. Trump throughout much of the Middle East.
While Washington searches for ways to weaken Iran’s murderous rulers, our supposed NATO ally Turkey is working overtime to keep the mullahs alive — and in power.
This week’s diplomatic tug-of-war over US-Iran negotiations is a win for Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey’s Islamist strongman, who has led a cynical campaign to stall for time and block US and Israeli military action against the Islamic Republic after its brutal crackdown on civilian protesters.
Abstract: The Baloch insurgency in Pakistan has intensified sharply since the beginning of 2025, marked by sophisticated attacks such as the Jaffar Express hijacking by Baloch Liberation Army-Jeeyand faction (BLA-J) on March 11, 2025, which resulted in the kidnapping of more than 400 passengers and death of at least 26 hostages. Groups such as BLA-J, Balochistan Liberation Front (BLF), and Baloch Liberation Army-Azad faction (BLA-A) continue to deploy suicide bombers, including women, and temporarily seize territories, targeting Chinese nationals and China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) projects. The insurgency’s regional spillover, especially into Iran, and competition for resources and prominence among factions of the insurgency further complicate Pakistan’s internal security. The Baloch Raaji Aajohi Sangar (BRAS) coalition among some of the major Baloch armed groups involved in the conflict enables large-scale, coordinated strikes, undermining counterterrorism efforts. Without a political resolution addressing long-standing grievances, the insurgency threatens to escalate, destabilizing both national and regional security.
Usually, we would refrain from any racist notion, any attempt to accuse a large group on a religious basis, but in this case, we made very deep inquiries and made sure, that the statistics are sound. We had no alternative, but to publish the paper as it is.
HTS is a radical terrorist organization that is directly responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of people in Syria in the past seven years. Although the organization liberated Syria from its brutal dictator Bashar al-Assad, we recommend that you never forget its origins and deeds along the way, which may suggest a new brutal dictatorship. Al-Julani and his designated ministers already stated that Syria will be a country of Sharia law. They even use the jihadist flag.
The death of the ICC-wanted heir removes a major obstacle to the country’s stalled elections, even as his supporters decry a ‘treacherous’ end for the man who once promised reform – and later, ‘rivers of blood’.
Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, the son of Libya’s late longtime ruler, Muammar Gaddafi, was killed Tuesday by gunmen who stormed his home in the western city of Zintan, his French lawyer Marcel Ceccaldi told AFP.
The Middle East has finally arrived at the grim reckoning long barreling toward it: a ruinous collapse of oil revenues that renders government deficits utterly unsustainable.
Among the wealthy Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states, four are running persistent annual budget deficits that are eroding their sovereign wealth reserves and plunging their finances into terminal decline, condemning their economies to stagnation.
