Houthis capture more Yemeni Red Sea islands, tightening grip on Bab el-Mandeb– www.euronews.com

EXCERPT:

Yemen’s Tehran-backed Houthis captured more islands in the southern Red Sea, government and Houthi officials said Monday, strengthening their control of a major maritime shipping route.

The capture of the islands of Greater and Lesser Hanish is the latest in the group’s swift advance around the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a key passage for oil shipments that has become even more crucial during the Iran war as the Strait of Hormuz remains under US and Iranian blockades.

Like Hormuz, located at the mouth of the Persian Gulf, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait — on the opposite side of the Arabian Peninsula — is a chokepoint that connects the Indian Ocean to the Red Sea, making it a key waterway for cargo traffic to the Mediterranean Sea.

For more than a month, the Houthis have been striking Saudi oil infrastructure and shipping in the Red Sea, stepping up pressure on global oil prices and boosting Iran’s leverage in its war with the US.

Major update issued after Russian drone ‘targeted’ Boris Johnson | World | News– www.express.co.uk

EXCERPT:

The Russian drone that Boris Johnson narrowly avoided may have been meant to strike his train, Ukraine’s railway operator has claimed. The former Prime Minister had to flee across the border into Poland when Moscow struck a train mere minutes behind him at Yahodyn station.

His train had left the station early as he was on his way home from a security conference in Kyiv, alongside former Swedish prime minister Carl Bildt and a number of European security advisers. According to a translation, rail operator Ukrzaliznytsia said in a Telegram post that it was “quite possible” the drone had been aimed at Mr Johnson’s train.

The company said the train “had departed the station earlier than scheduled due to real-time adjustments to train timetables necessitated by the constant threat of Russian strikes”.

It added that former CIA director David Petraeus had been on a different train that was still at the station when the drone struck. No casualties have been reported.

By Paul Gordon Collier, Editor

“Earthly civilizations come and go, but the Kingdom of God is eternal. The Word of the Lord is a civilization blueprint that transcends time, space, place, and ethnicity. For the children of God, we walk in the civilizations of both the fallen (the state) and the righteous (the Kingdom of God). One civilization is here, in full, the other is coming, though in shadow it’s already here.

“We are stewards and sojourners of the temporal civilizations, but Kings and Queens in the civilization to come, the civilization that is already among us in our hearts, the Kingdom of God.” – Paul Gordon Collier

As our civilizations collapse around us, those without roots outside of those civilizations will experience a collapse within themselves as well. Those with roots outside of those collapsing civilizations will be best equipped to be stewards of what might replace them.

As Christians, we are called to be good stewards of whatever state we find ourselves in. We have as our examples Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Esther, Mordecai, Daniel, and Joseph (and others as well).

All of these men and women of faith found themselves subject to a state that, in some way, wanted their people killed. These states were enemies of God’s children. Yet not a one of these people called on others to raise up arms to vanquish the state that wanted to destroy them and their people.

Jeremiah explicitly is given a prophecy commanding the Israelites to submit to the invaders and live well under their rule. The Israelites refuse to enter God’s rest. Instead, they drag Jeremiah to Egypt, blaming their “unrighteousness” towards the Queen of Heaven for their woes rather than their unrighteousness towards God.

They will die in Egypt, and the 10 tribes of Israel will be scattered. To this day, they have not been identified, which has led to more than 2500 years of exile from consequence of men entering their own understanding rather than God’s rest.

Ezekiel prophesized God’s Word, but never incited others to rise up and throw off the yolk they were under. He preached the words God gave him, even when God called him not to mourn for his own wife when she died, because he was to physically prophecy the indifference God held for his unrighteous bride.

Ezekiel entered God’s rest, and his words today continue to lift the body of Christ towards heaven.

Mordecai not only served his nation faithfully, without violating God’s laws, but he saved the King from an assassination plot. He saved the instrument of his peoples’ destruction from destruction.

The book of Esther never mentions God, but all who know His Word can see God moving through all Mordecai did. We can see how God confounds earthly authority, leading it to fulfill His will, no matter how obstinate that authority might be.

Mordecai entered God’s rest and God raised him up to become the second most powerful man in that same state.

Daniel’s righteousness and God-given wisdom elevated him to the second highest position in the land, yet when conspirators tricked the King into condemning him, by appealing to the King’s vanity, Daniel did not rebel or call others to do so. Instead, he put his trust in the Lord, not knowing beforehand if God would save him from the lions.

Daniel became the second most powerful man in the state before he was thrown into the Lion’s Den. Afterwards, his position was so cemented that he retained it even after that state, Babylon, fell to another state, the Persians. These same Persians would give Israel the resources needed to rebuild their temple.

Daniel entered God’s rest and became the wisdom of two states, though he never imposed his faith on either pagan state through that position, always staying within the boundaries of the state he served (so long as those boundaries did not defy God’s law).

Esther is assured by Mordecai that even if she chooses to remain a coward and not confront the King about the planned genocide of her people, another way will be provided. Mordecai knew scripture, it would seem, for he knew God would not allow his testimony, the miracle of Israel, to be blotted out by Satan’s men.

Esther entered the Rest of the Lord, risking death, knowing full well God’s will would prevail with or without her. She risked execution by the King by entering his court without his permission.

Joseph entered Egypt as a slave, then became a prisoner, going from a low position to the lowest position in the state. He stood in the prisoner’s pit symbolically the way the unrighteous after death will stand in the pit. He made no effort to escape as a slave or a prisoner. In both instances, he served his master. Potipher’s household was blessed by Joseph’s works, as was Pharoah’s prison.

Rather than rebel, Jospeh worked to bless the state he served, even while being first a slave, then a prisoner. His righteous wisdom prepared the way for his elevation from pit man to the right hand of the Pharoah. He went from slavery and imprisonment in the state to becoming the second most powerful man in the state.

It is clear to me that God ordains the state. It is not intended to be unrighteous, but where unrighteous hearts rule, no state can be righteous.

The state throughout history has been either an instrument of God’s mercy or an instrument of God’s righteousness. The magistrate is the plumbline of the people of the state.

Where righteousness prevails, so too will righteous governance. Where unrighteousness prevails, so too will unrighteous governance. The state cannot save you, for only God saves, but the state can be an instrument of wrath or mercy, depending on the consensual righteousness of the people.

No matter the model of the state, the righteousness of that state will emerge from the heart of the people, not the heart of any system (though systems can support or undermine righteous and unrighteous acts).

The power of the state is existentially rooted in its capacity to kill and harm human beings, and also its capacity to destroy resources.

There is no exception. This includes America.

The institutions of the state must facilitate all products, services, and disciplines necessary for optimal human harming and resource destroying capacity.

The state must always be an instrument of death and destruction to extend and preserve its sovereign power.

This will never change. This is the nature of the state. Without this power, the state disintegrates, often to give birth to semi-states before the next state claims sovereign power over the land.

The state is a vehicle of power for those who wish to assure success. The closer you get to the zenith of power, the more certain this principle becomes. The further you get from the zenith of power, the more the exceptions you will find.

The fear of losing fairly is the birth of the state. The fear of suffering and death is the power of the state. Your fear of suffering and death makes you a slave to the one who fears fairly losing to you.

The fear of losing fairly is the motivation for power that becomes the leadership in the state. The fear of suffering and death is the power that sustains the power of those who fear losing; these are the leaders of the state.

The fear of suffering and death is the fruit of the soul that does not put its faith in God’s rest.

Today, we Americans live in a land that is openly hostile not only to God’s laws, but to Him directly. We celebrate a woman’s “right” to choose. We chastise a whole race for the sins of their fathers, calling for the persecution of that “guilty” race.

We condemn heteronormativity, the way God intended us to be, and elevate homonormativity, the path that leads to the extermination of the human race.

Whole schools of thought in America regularly preach the message that God is a white supremacist demon that deserves to be driven from the public square.

Within the state’s mechanisms of power, we as Christians should call for righteous governance. Within the state’s mechanisms of power, we as Christians should call for traitors to be punished to the fullest extent of the law, which includes executions.

Within the state’s mechanism of power, we as Christians should call on the state to end unrighteous laws and follow only righteous ones. Esther and Mordecai used the full powers of the state to bring execution to those who would execute the Jews, for instance. But they did not seek to use those powers to overthrow the state itself.

Yet, when it is clear the power within the state to reform it to righteousness does not exist, we are yet called to continue to be good citizens of that state up to the point of defying God’s laws. Jeremiah did not try to use state power to reform the state, short of witnessing God’s word to the leaders, for he knew that power was gone, by God’s will, as a righteous punishment on the land.

Today, I believe we Christians in America still have state power we can both appeal to and bear to recalibrate our state towards the righteousness of God. But the season might soon come when we Christians might realize any state power to restore righteousness is already gone (as it was for Jeremiah).

Outside of hearing from the Lord directly, we can look at Judah in the time of Jeremiah for a plumbline of what a state under the unbreakable wrath of God looks like. While Ninevah was once given the opportunity to repent by Jonah, it was not given that opportunity under Nahum.

I will leave it for you, the reader, to assess whether we appear to be Judah under Zedekiah or under Rehoboam. Under Zedekiah, the die was cast. The option was only to submit to the righteous judgment on the land, the Babylonians, or be even more scattered than the Israelites already were. They chose the latter. Under Rehoboam, there was yet hope for Judah, who fell to the latter unrighteous reign of Solomon and the continued beginning unrighteous reign of Rehoboam.

Either way, whether we have hope as a nation through repentance or not, unless we have received a divine word from God, we should operate as if repentance can lead us back to righteousness, but not with a hope to save the state; we do so rather in the commitment, through love, to walk daily in service to the Lord, through His spirit, His Will, not our own.

America may survive or die. Tyrants may rise or fall, but the Word of the Lord endures forever, and contains the truth of the home we are traveling towards, the new heaven and the new earth, where all authority on heaven and earth will lovingly bend its knee in service to the one true sovereign, the Spirit of Lord, the God of Jacob, the arm that saves.

In these times, I encourage my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ to not give up working towards correcting the state’s unrighteousness through the state’s lawful means of doing so, but also not to put your hope in the outcome of America. For hope in America is not hope in the Rest of the Lord.

We who are in Christ are peacemakers expecting suffering and death, while welcoming the opportunity to testify to God’s glory to others by cheerfully embracing such faits. But we are not called to pursue suffering, only to know it is a necessary part of living Christ amongst his enemies, your enemies, the very people God calls us to love and serve, in righteousness, in a righteous love that rejoices in truth, not in enabling sin to please man and be accepted by him.

Civilizations come and go, but not so the Kingdom of God. No righteous person will end their days in suffering, for their days end eternally in the new heaven and new earth, and no unrighteous person will avoid true suffering by sacrificing righteousness to avoid pain and death.

As our civilizations continue to collapse, I hope you find comfort in the eternal civilization that cannot be broken or changed, the Kingdom of God, and through entering the rest of His Kingdom, you will be a better agent for righteous change in your unrighteous state.

Those who enter the rest of the Lord suffer no spiritual pain. Those who enter into their own understanding, their own way, have no rest today, nor will they have rest tomorrow. Esther entered God’s rest rather than her own clear understanding that to enter the Kings’ throne room is death. She did so with no prophetic promise, only faith, not in the outcome, but in the practice of acting righteously, even in the face of threat of suffering or death from the state.

Let us pray the Lord delivers to us a civic authority bold enough to vanquish the traitors in our land and restore righteousness but let us not put our heavenly hope in such things. We are stewards, not owners of the state God has put us in. Fear God, not men, and it will always go right with you, even amid great suffering and death.

A. GLOBAL OUTLOOK

  1. HALF A MILLION DEAD RUSSIANS FOR A SCRATCH OF EARTH – A British military intelligence report is alleging Russia has lost half a million Russian soldiers in the war since 2023. During that same time, Russia has only gained 2% more ground than it had before.

Air Chief Marshal Sir Rich Knighton, chief of the UK armed forces, commented, “I think these numbers illustrate clearly the senseless and futile waste of human life for such little progress, and against such an illegitimate aim of President Putin.”

  1. SCOTUS PUNTS ON MISSOURI REDISTRICTING, GIVING DEMS ONE HOUSE SEAT – The Supreme Court just created massive chaos in Missouri when Justice Brett Kavanaugh rejected a petition by the Missouri GOP seeking to overthrow a state SCOTUS ruling blocking their redistricting map. This map was the one voters assumed when they voted in the primary election.

A lower Federal court has already “lifted” the state SCOTUS ruling, leaving state authorities wondering which court to honor. If the lack of a SCOTUS ruling holds, Missourians who voted in the primary might be voting in a different district in the general election. This non-ruling effectively preserves one Democrat seat.

  1. ONE BLACK MAN DEFIES THE CLANCY JURY – Lindsay Clancy, the woman who has admitted to strangling her three children to death with premeditation, was about to go free thanks to progressive jurors. But one black man confounded them, holding out to force a mistrial. One juror told progressive state media that the man “just couldn’t get over the fact that she viciously murdered her children.”
  2. DEMOCRATS PROMISE TRUMP IMPEACHMENTS, INVESTIGATIONS WITH 2026 WIN – The Democrats made it clear to the American voter that a midterm win for them will be constant “investigations” of Trump and his allies for us. The Democrats are threatening Cabinet officials, Trump family members, and Trump himself with numerous “criminal” investigations. This is in addition to the impeachment they promise to deliver should they win in the midterms.
  3. HOUTHIS TAKE A SEA PORT – The Houthis have successfully seized the seaport of Mokha, a pro-government Yemeni port. The attack was sudden. It captured the entire city off-guard as residents quickly moved to evacuate it. The Saudis have responded by hitting Mokha’s now captured airport.
  4. DATA CENTERS, NOT AMERICAN RULE OF LAW, CENTER OF MIDTERMS – The central issue in a majority of contested U.S. House and Senate Races is becoming Data Centers. At a time when one party, the Democratic Party, is looking to convert America to the Progressive State, Americans are more concerned over data centers than losing their constitutional rights.

Republicans find themselves on the losing end of this issue with one candidate, Senator John Husted of Ohio, reflecting the new Republican strategy, join the fight against the data centers. He said “They’ve earned that backlash. They haven’t been as forthcoming about the benefits that will come in terms of local jobs and construction worker jobs and reduced property taxes, and they haven’t offered things like paying the energy bills for local communities, for the power plants they build.”

  1. ISRAEL DEMANDS UK HAND OVER FALKLANDS – After the UK made moves to sanction Israel over its occupation of “Palestinian” territories, Israel has countered by supporting Argentina’s claims on the Falkland Islands.

Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel ’s minister for national security, posted on X, “It’s time for the State of Israel to publicly recognize that the Malvinas Islands are Argentine territory under occupation, which the British violently steal from the Argentine people. The British are not content with merely occupying the territory; they also carry out oil drilling there and steal the money from the Argentine people. I call upon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to recognize Argentina’s sovereignty over the Malvinas Islands and to impose sanctions on Great Britain as long as the occupation continues.”

  1. RUSSIA LITERALLY CONNECTS TO NORTH KOREA NOW – Russia and North Korea have cut the rope on a new bridge that links their two territories together. North Korean’s State media reported, the bridge was built and opened to “ensure the safe passage of various kinds of vehicles and personnel traffic.”

It also claims the bridge is “a guarantee for building up and reinforcing an important infrastructure for economic cooperation between the two countries and revitalizing multi-faceted cooperation including human exchange, tourism and commodity circulation.”

  1. NORTH KOREA’S KING JONG-UN HAS AN HEIR? – South Korea’s Spy Agency is claiming it has identified who it believes has been designated Kim Jong-un’s heir apparent, a secret older son. The agency had been operating under the assumption Jong-un had no son. The report has not been substantiated, but the agency making such a claim in and of itself is newsworthy.

HEADLINES MISSED

  1. CANADIANS LEARN FROM CHINESE MEDIA THEIR GOVERNMENT IS COOPERATING MILITARILY WITH CCP – Canada is playing a dangerous game, first with its pushback on the Trump tariffs, and now with its cozying up to America’s greatest threat, China. Canadians learned from a Chinese news report their Prime Minister, Mark Carney, had been secretly negotiating with the CCP to develop a plan for military cooperation between the two countries. The move makes Canada a threat to U.S. security.
  2. CHINA BUILDING AI ROBOT ARMY – China is working on developing an AI-run robot army equipped with humanoid “soldiers” with AI brains. Reuters is claiming that an investigation of their procurement records reveal the army is already being built. They claimed they reviewed “more than 100 Chinese military procurement notices, academic studies, patents, official publications, government records and defense-company materials.” This led them to conclude China is building an AI robot army.
  3. MUSLIM CONGRESSMEMBERS VOTE FOR AMERICA TO PAY THEM 9/11 REPARATIONS – Because of the “Islamophobia” that followed from the 9/11 attacks, Muslim U.S. congress members voted on a resolution demanding reparations from Americans. They reckon the pain of hearing the truth about their religion of terror and pedophilia was more painful than the thousands of deaths their religion caused on 9/11, and continues to cause worldwide, even as we report this today. For that, they want us to pay.
  4. ANTHROPIC SAVES THE WORLD AGAIN AND AGAIN – Anthropic is claiming it has prevented multiple attempts by bad actors to use Claude AI to execute terrorist actions. The attempts included kamikaze drone swarms and biological weapons.

They posted on their X account, “We’re publishing our most detailed threat intelligence report to date. It covers how people tried to misuse Claude—for cyberattacks, influence operations, surveillance, biology, and building weapons—and how we found and stopped them. We disrupted every operation in the report…”

  1. FORMER U.S. CABINET MEMBER SERVED CCP WHILE IN OFFICE – Elaine Chao, a former Bush and Trump-era Cabinet official, is alleged to have been working for a CCP-controlled agency while also serving in the U.S. government. The organization she worked for was the United Front Work Department (UFWD).

A Congressional Select Committee memo claims “United front work damages U.S. interests through legal and illegal technology transfer, surveillance of Chinese diaspora communities, promotion of favorable narratives about the PRC through ostensibly independent voices, and the neutralization or harassment of critics of the CCP.”

PEOPLE ADVANCE

  1. GERMANY’S PRO-GERMAN PARTY WINS STATE ELECTION – The only pro-German political party in Germany, the AfD, won 44% of the vote in a Saxony-Anhalt state election. The party fell just short of a majority for the state government, having captured 39 of the 83 seats in the State assembly. They fell just three seats short of a majority. The response from the “Planvasion of Germany” parties was to call for the AfD to be banned.
  2. EUTHANASIA FAILS AGAIN IN BRITIAN – Another attempt to legalize euthanasia in Britian has failed after a 286 to 270 vote defeated the latest bill. The legislation began the practice of euthanasia the same as many other laws, targeting only those with minimal diagnosed time to live. Later, the expansions of the eligible comes.
  3. 110,000 LESS FOREIGN STUDENTS EXPECTED NEXT COLLEGE SEMESTER – Thanks to several factors, including new VISA restrictions, the amount of foreign college students attending U.S. schools will be 110,000 less than last year. Colleges will have to rely more on Americans to sell enrollment than foreigners, which might incentivize them to drop their anti-American ideologies.
  4. U.S. JOB CREATION HEATS BACK UP – The U.S. economy has seen job growth stagnate the past couple of months, leading experts to predict an anemic August jobs report. However, the jobs report delivered far better than expected, with 162,000 new jobs being created in July, Unemployment held steady at 4.1%. In addition to this news, another report revealed unemployment among the college-less is at an all-time low.
  5. SCIENTISTS IDENTIFY TRIGGER RECEPTOR THAT COULD CURE OSTEOPOROSIS – Researchers at Leipzig University in Germany have developed a new therapy for osteoporosis. The researchers claim they have identified a protein receptor named GPR133 that could be triggered to rebuild lost bone density in osteoporosis patients.

Professor Ines Liebscher, lead investigator of the study, said “If this receptor is impaired by genetic changes, mice show signs of loss of bone density at an early age – similar to osteoporosis in humans. Using the substance AP503, which was only recently identified via a computer-assisted screen as a stimulator of GPR133, we were able to significantly increase bone strength in both healthy and osteoporotic mice.”

A British military intelligence report is alleging Russia has lost half a million Russian soldiers in the war since 2023. During that same time, Russia has only gained 2% more ground than it had before.

Air Chief Marshal Sir Rich Knighton, chief of the UK armed forces, commented, “I think these numbers illustrate clearly the senseless and futile waste of human life for such little progress, and against such an illegitimate aim of President Putin.”

500,000 Russian Troops Killed for 2% Territorial Gain Since 2023, UK Intel Says– United24 media

EXCERPT:

An estimated 500,000 Russian soldiers have been killed since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, according to British military intelligence.

We bring you stories from the ground. Your support keeps our team in the field.

Vast majority of Russia’s losses have occurred since January 2023, during a period in which Russian forces gained only around 2% of Ukrainian territory, Air Chief Marshal Sir Rich Knighton, chief of the UK armed forces, said in a comment to Sky News on September 11.

“I think these numbers illustrate clearly the senseless and futile waste of human life for such little progress, and against such an illegitimate aim of President Putin,” Knighton said in a prepared statement to journalists.

Western officials said that neither Russia’s mounting military losses nor the increasing economic strain caused by the war appeared to have altered Vladimir Putin’s goal of drawing Ukraine into Moscow’s sphere of influence, Sky News reported.

Mokha residents said Houthi fighters moved into the city after fierce clashes with pro-government forces on Wednesday night, prompting many families to flee their homes.

“The takeover came without warning. Panic spread throughout the area, forcing people to flee amid distressing scenes of injured people lying in the streets with no-one there to help them,” one man told BBC Arabic’s Middle East Lifeline programme.

Another man said that Houthi fighters were patrolling the streets of Mokha on Thursday, while government offices and shops were closed.

“At the moment, we don’t know what Ansar Allah will do,” he added, using the group’s formal name. “Everyone is afraid for their safety.”

Many displaced families are heading east towards the city of Aden, where Yemen’s internationally recognised Presidential Leadership Council and government are based.

“We fled with our children and kept running. We have no bedding, no home, nothing with us. Everything was destroyed within an hour. They didn’t even give us a chance or warn us beforehand,” one woman told BBC Arabic.

Pakistan Warns Iran to Keep the Houthis Away from Saudi Arabia– www.breitbart.com

EXCERPT:

Pakistan delivered a warning to Iran on Wednesday that if Tehran’s terrorist proxies in Yemen, the Houthis, continue attacking cities and oil facilities in Saudi Arabia, Pakistan may be obliged to intervene under its defense pact with the Saudis.

Pakistan gave notice to Iran the day after Houthi insurgents launched drone and missile attacks against four cities in Saudi Arabia, damaging oil infrastructure and wounding dozens of civilians.

Saudi forces, working with the internationally-recognized government of Yemen, responded with airstrikes and ground action against the Houthis, who captured Yemen’s capital city of Sanaa and much other territory in 2014.

In a television interview on Wednesday, Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said that further Houthi attacks could trigger the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement, a pact Pakistan signed with Saudi Arabia and Turkey in August. The pact includes a mutual defense commitment similar to NATO Article V.

“An aggression on one country will be considered an aggression on all three countries,” Asif said. “There is no ambiguity or doubt. Unprovoked aggression or spillover into Saudi Arabia will definitely make this agreement operational.”

A senior diplomatic source told Reuters the Pakistani government conveyed this message to Tehran privately within the past 24 hours, and advised the Iranians to pull the Houthis back from attacking Saudi Arabia. The response from Tehran was reportedly: “Iran does not control the Houthis.”

Canada tariffs up to 50% come into effect on $27.6 billion U.S. goods– www.cnbc.com

EXCERPT:

Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on a swathe of U.S. goods took effect on Tuesday after trade talks collapsed last month, as relations between Washington and Ottawa continue to sour.

The duties range from 15% to 50% across $27.6 billion worth of U.S. products, including dairy, agricultural equipment, paper, household appliances and electronics. Canadian tariffs on U.S. steel, aluminum and iron products doubled to 50%, while furniture and clothing were also hit with the highest rate.

Canada called the move a “dollar for dollar” response to U.S. levies on its own goods, which have been targeted by Section 338 tariffs. Its Department of Finance said it would protect Canadian workers, producers and manufacturers by allowing them to better compete with U.S. products sold in the domestic market.

What new tariff walls in U.S.-Canada trade war mean for the economy’s critical metals

Existing Canadian counter-tariffs against the U.S., including 25% on the politically sensitive autos sector, remain in place.

Trade talks between the longstanding allies fell apart at the end of August, with officials on each side blaming one another for the failure to reach a deal and publicly disagreeing over which areas they could not find compromise.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday called for a boycott of Canadian airplane manufacturer Bombardier, posting on Truth Social: “NO MORE SELLING BOMBARDIER IN THE UNITED STATES!”

The U.S. exported $333.6 billion worth of goods to Canada, and imported $381.9 billion from its northern neighbor. The pair share trade in many of the same sectors, including energy, vehicles, heavy machinery, aircraft, pharmaceuticals, gems and jewelry, furniture, clothing and a host of foods and drinks.

A member of the Israeli government has claimed the Falkland Islands are ‘Argentine territory under occupation’ and called for ‘sanctions’ against the UK.

Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel ’s minister for national security, issued a statement late on Monday evening (September 7), just hours after it became public knowledge the UK government is due to announce new sanctions on Israeli settlements in the West Bank. Ed Miliband, the foreign secretary, is expected to outline new trade restrictions on goods coming out of the illegal settlements in the West Bank, a Palestinian territory, on Tuesday (September 8).

As soon as rumours emerged of Andy Burnham ’s ‘reset’ of relations, Israeli officials threatened to ‘act against Britain’. Itamar Ben-Gvir has now publicly called for Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to recognise the Atlantic archipelago as Argentinian.

The East African nation of Somaliland has sought Israeli military presence amid growing regional threats. “We will cooperate with any friendly country, and we need security partners, including Israel,” Somaliland’s President Abdirahman Abdullahi said recently. “If Israel is present, it will provide deterrence.”

The statement comes as Iranian-backed Houthis reportedly seized the strategic Red Sea port city of Mokha, tightening their hold over the Strait of Bab al-Mandab. According to Reuters on Thursday, the Iranian proxy terror militia has “reached the Red Sea islands of Hanish after capturing the coastal city of Mocha, … in a dramatic strategic ​shift that could threaten the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, one of the world’s most important shipping routes.”

South Korea’s spy agency is investigating whether North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has a secret older son who could have a role in the country’s future leadership.

The National Intelligence Service (NIS) said on Thursday it was still trying to establish whether Kim has an older son, while maintaining that his daughter is the likely heir.

The comments appear to respond to a recent report claiming South Korean intelligence had determined Kim has no son with wife Ri Sol Ju.

But the NIS said that even if an older son exists, he is not currently considered to be in the line to succeed his father.

 

Russia and North Korea have cut the rope on a new bridge that links their two territories together. North Korean’s State media reported, the bridge was built and opened to “ensure the safe passage of various kinds of vehicles and personnel traffic.”

It also claims the bridge is “a guarantee for building up and reinforcing an important infrastructure for economic cooperation between the two countries and revitalizing multi-faceted cooperation including human exchange, tourism and commodity circulation.”

North Korea and Russia have opened a new road bridge over the Tumen River, Pyongyang’s state media reported Tuesday, calling it key infrastructure to help “revitalize” multifaceted cooperation.

The opening ceremony took place the previous day in Rason in North Korea and Khasan in Russia, virtually attended by North Korean Premier Pak Thae-song and Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, according to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).

The construction began in April last year, following a summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and Russian President Vladimir Putin in June 2024 in Pyongyang.

The bridge would “ensure the safe passage of various kinds of vehicles and personnel traffic,” the KCNA said, offering “a guarantee for building up and reinforcing an important infrastructure for economic cooperation between the two countries and revitalizing multi-faceted cooperation including human exchange, tourism and commodity circulation.”

Canada is playing a dangerous game, first with its pushback on the Trump tariffs, and now with its cozying up to America’s greatest threat, China. Canadians learned from a Chinese news report their Prime Minister, Mark Carney, had been secretly negotiating with the CCP to develop a plan for military cooperation between the two countries. The move makes Canada a threat to U.S. security.

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government has quietly revived a formal military dialogue with China’s People’s Liberation Army that had been dormant for more than eight years.

Carney previously called China Canada’s “biggest security threat.”

And Canadians learned about the renewed dialogue from China.

Canadian and Chinese defence officials met in Ottawa on Sept. 4 for the fifth Canada-China Defence Coordination Dialogue.

The bilateral dialogue was established in 2013. Canada and China held four previous rounds — in 2013, 2014, 2016 and April 2018 — before the mechanism went dormant. The Sept. 4, 2026 meeting marked the first dialogue since then.

The eight-year gap refers specifically to the Defence Coordination Dialogue, not to an absence of all military or defence contact between Canada and China.

China is working on developing an AI-run robot army equipped with humanoid “soldiers” with AI brains. Reuters is claiming that an investigation of their procurement records reveal the army is already being built. They claimed they reviewed “more than 100 Chinese military procurement notices, academic studies, patents, official publications, government records and defense-company materials.” This led them to conclude China is building an AI robot army.

The only pro-German political party in Germany, the AfD, won 44% of the vote in a Saxony-Anhalt state election. The party fell just short of a majority for the state government, having captured 39 of the 83 seats in the State assembly. They fell just three seats short of a majority. The response from the “Planvasion of Germany” parties was to call for the AfD to be banned.

Despite a massive nationwide media and political campaign, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) secured a stunning election victory in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt. The right-wing party won 44% of the vote and captured 39 seats in the 83-seat state assembly — leaving it just three seats short of an absolute majority.

With today’s result, the AfD in Saxony-Anhalt could form a government in coalition with the leftist anti-establishment BSW party. A breakaway faction from the far-left Linke party, the BSW secured just over 5%. “One idea being floated is whether there could be informal deal whereby a small party – the BSW – could give their tacit support to allow the AfD to form a minority government,” the BBC noted.

Germany’s ruling Christian Democrats (CDU), who formerly governed the state, came second with a little over 17%. Germany’s Chancellor and CDU chief Friedrich Merz conceded the “most severe election defeat” in “years, or decades,” to quote his own words. “This election result is sending shockwaves,” Merz confessed.

Not just for Chancellor Merz, the outcome is a big setback for Germany’s left-wing establishment. According to the German newspaper Die Welt, the election result showed that the old political establishment is now in “self-destruct” mode. “The political culture of the Berlin Republic is coming to an end. The election outcome, disastrous for the country’s elites, reveals just how detached they have become from reality,” the country’s most-read newspaper commented.

UN Demands Britain Atone for Slavery—While Giving African and Islamic Slave Traders a Pass– gellerreport.com

The UN, or rather, one of its mr.-buttinsky agencies, has “demanded” that the UK put up monuments to, and name streets after, black Africans. It wants school curricula in the UK to cover black slavery even more than they already do. In short, the UK is being asked to engage in one long howl of “mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.” Can a demand that British taxpayers pay hundreds of billions of dollars to the corrupt leaders of black African countries be far behind?

More on this insidious demand can be found here: “UN Tells Britain To ‘Honour Contributions of People of African Descent’ as ‘Reparation’ for Colonialism and Slavery,” by Javier Villamor, European Conservative, September 3, 2026:

The United Nations wants the United Kingdom to transform its streets, monuments, and school curricula as part of a ‘reparations’ policy for its historical involvement in the African slave trade.

The UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) adopted its new General Recommendation No. 40 on August 25, devoted to “reparatory justice” for colonialism, the trafficking of enslaved Africans, and racialized slavery.

Among the proposed measures is a reshaping of the monumental landscape of former slave-trading countries.

According to documents reported by The Telegraph, the experts believe that public spaces should “honour the contributions of people of African descent” and acknowledge the abuses committed by those who participated in or benefited from slavery. In practice, this could mean new statues, works of art, memorials, or the dedication of public spaces.

Iran says “prohibited zone” near Hormuz to cover parts of Gulf of Oman and beyond

Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said on Wednesday that a new “prohibited zone” outside the Strait of Hormuz would cover parts of the Gulf of Oman and beyond, adding they would announce the exact coordinates later.

“It approximately starts from the direction of Chabahar, covering part of the Sea of Oman and another part of the Arabian Sea,” IRGC Spokesman Hossein Mohebi told state television. “If a vessel enters that area without coordination, it will be subject to our sanctions.”

On Monday, the head of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said Tehran was planning to announce a maritime “exclusion zone” outside the strait where it intends to stop vessels attempting to transit the waterway without Iranian permission.

Houthis accuse Saudi Arabia of striking Yemeni prison, killing inmates and visitors

The Houthis accused Saudi Arabia on Wednesday of carrying out an airstrike on a Yemeni prison, killing inmates as well as women and children who were visiting.

In a statement on X, Houthi military spokesman Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree said the alleged strike on the prison in Al-Hazm, the capital of Yemen’s Al-Jawf province, took place on Monday and killed “a large number of prison inmates, along with a number of visitors including children and women.”

“The attempts by the Saudi enemy to evade responsibility for its crimes and aggression against our country will not exempt it from the consequences and repercussions of this aggression and criminality, no matter how much it tries to cover it up,” he added.

The Saudis have not responded to the Houthi claims.

The Houthis on Wednesday also accused Saudi Arabia of launching more than 30 strikes on several regions of Yemen, a day after Saudi authorities reported Houthi attacks had injured 73 people early on Tuesday, and temporarily shut several oil facilities.

Fighting in Yemen reignited last week, when the Houthis launched a major campaign to seize territory near the strategic Bab al-Mandab strait.

 

Iran condemns U.S. strike on oil tankers

Iran’s foreign ministry on Wednesday strongly condemned U.S. strikes on its oil tankers, describing the attacks the previous day as a threat to regional security.

“The aggressive actions by the United States against Iranian commercial vessels not only increase the dangers of tensions in the region but are also considered an overt threat to regional and international peace and security,” the ministry said in a statement, adding that Iranian forces had targeted U.S. military facilities in the region in “self-defense”.

U.S. Central Command said it disabled five Iranian tankers on Tuesday with strikes launched in response to unsuccessful Iranian missile attacks targeting a U.S. warship in recent days.

 

Several vessels in Gulf damaged, British maritime agency reports

Several vessels in the Persian Gulf region were on fire Wednesday, a U.K. Navy agency reported, after Iran said it had attacked more than a dozen ships trying to transit the Strait of Hormuz without its permission.

The U.K. Maritime Trade Operations center (UKMTO) said “several merchant vessels in the Northern Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman” were hit by “disabling fire as part of ongoing military activity in the region.”

The center did not name the ships in question, but the U.S. said Tuesday night it had destroyed 5 Iranian oil tankers in the gulf.

It also said a vessel 24 nautical miles northwest of Port Rashid, in the UAE, was listing, potentially due to an attack.

“The Master of a tanker has reported sighting a vessel listing while at anchor, possibly indicating water ingress following an attack from an unknown projectile,” it said.

On Wednesday, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said it had attacked two U.S. warships, eight oil tankers and 10 “non-compliant vessels” trying to transit the Strait of Hormuz. 

The U.S. military’s Central Command quickly denied that any American ships had been struck.

 

U.S. military denies Iran’s claim to have damaged U.S. warships with missile attack

The U.S. military’s Central Command denied on Wednesday Iran’s claim to have inflicted “heavy damage” on U.S. warships.

“No U.S. Navy warship has been struck; all IRGC attempted attacks failed,” CENTCOM said in a post on social media. 

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed earlier that its naval forces had targeted two U.S. warships, along with eight other vessels, and “inflicted heavy damage on them.”

CENTCOM dismissed the claim as “completely FALSE” and said U.S. forces had destroyed 10 Iranian tankers “just in the last week.”

 

Oil prices could hit $120, analysis finds, as Americans absorb $100 billion fuel hit

An analysis by Goldman Sachs has forecast that heightened attacks in the Persian Gulf and Red Sea could push global oil prices above $120 a barrel, which would add to the surging fuel costs Americans have faced during the Iran war.

The investment bank’s forecast implies a roughly 20% increase in the cost of Brent crude, the international benchmark, which is trading at nearly $100 a barrel. Oil prices have spiked in recent weeks as the Middle East conflict drags on, with U.S. military forces striking three Iranian oil tankers on Saturday and the Houthi rebels attacking Saudi oil facilities.

Iranian forces say they targeted American warships again

Iran’s powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said Wednesday that it had targeted two U.S. warships and eight other vessels in retaliation for U.S. strikes on five Iranian oil tankers the previous day.

The IRGC said its naval forces had targeted the vessels in the Persian Gulf region, claiming to have “inflicted heavy damage on them.” 

There was no immediate response from the U.S. military, which said Tuesday that it had warned the crews of the five Iranian tankers to abandon ship “before the vessels were struck and rendered inoperable.”

The new attacks claimed by the IRGC are the latest in a series of flare-ups in fighting between the U.S. and Iran since a ceasefire agreed to by both sides in June fell apart over disagreements regarding control over ship traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. 

 

Oil hits $100 per barrel for first time since July amid fighting flare-up

The price of Brent crude, the international benchmark for oil, hit $100 per barrel Wednesday morning, the highest it’s been since late July.

The increase is a continuation of an upward trend seen since August and follows a flare-up in fighting between the U.S. and Iran.

The U.S. announced late Tuesday it had struck 5 Iranian oil tankers in response to an attempted attack on its warships in the region. Iran retaliated by targeting a military base in Jordan that hosts U.S. forces. The Jordanian military said it intercepted 18 Iranian missiles and reported no casualties.

 

Protesters urge South Korea to not join U.S. war with Iran

Dozens of South Koreans urged their government on Wednesday not to deploy troops to the strategic Strait of Hormuz.

The protesters across from the U.S. embassy compound in Seoul waved signs saying “Do not join a war of aggression” as the country’s leaders weigh a “contribution” to the waterway’s security.

“We cannot send our young people into a sea of death!” chanted the protesters on the steps outside Seoul’s Sejong Center for the Performing Arts.

The protest came a day after South Korean defence authorities said they had sent a fact-finding mission to assess the situation in Hormuz, while stressing that no decision had been made on any deployment.  

South Korea said Friday it was considering “contributions” to U.S. security efforts along the strait  provided that its own military readiness was not compromised.

Iran has warned that any South Korean deployment would be “regarded as direct support for the party responsible for that aggression and will have serious consequences.”

 

Iran-backed Houthi group reports over 30 strikes across Yemen

Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis reported more than 30 Saudi strikes on several regions on Wednesday, a day after the rebels launched major attacks on their neighbor, injuring dozens of people.

There has been no official comment from Saudi Arabia about the Houthi report.

Saudi authorities previously said that Houthi attacks caused temporary shutdowns at oil sites and injured 73 people early Tuesday. The rebels reported Saudi airstrikes following the attacks.

Deadly fighting reignited in Yemen last week, when the Houthis launched a major campaign to seize territory near the Bab al-Mandab strait.

The strait has become an increasingly important route for Saudi oil since Iran  effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz, choking Gulf exports.

Price of oil trades at $99 per barrel again as open hostilities resume

The price of Brent crude, the international benchmark for oil, was trading at over $99 early Wednesday, in a continuation of the upward trend seen since August.

Meanwhile, the benchmark U.S. crude rose 1.2% to $94.17 a barrel.

Before the war began in February, a fifth of the world’s oil flowed through the Strait of Hormuz but since then, traffic has plummeted, with only small periods of temporary and limited recovery.

 

Iran launches missiles at U.S. targets in Jordan, state media says

Iran has launched missiles toward U.S. targets in Jordan, Iranian state-run media said, following the latest American strikes.

It’s the latest tit-for-tat retaliation after the U.S. military said it destroyed five Iranian crude oil tankers following two attacks on a U.S. warship by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard over the past two days.

U.S. Central Command, when asked about the strikes on the Jordanian air base, said it had no information to offer.

Jordan’s military said its air defense systems intercepted 18 ballistic missiles launched toward its territory and two others fell in places where people do not live. It says it had no reports of casualties.

Jordan is a staunch U.S. ally that hosts American forces, making the kingdom’s military bases a target of repeated Iranian strikes.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Navy also warned crews of oil tankers near ports in Kuwait and Bahrain to immediately leave their vessels, saying the ships could be targeted in retaliation for the U.S. attacks on Iranian tankers.

 

CENTCOM confirms it struck five Iranian oil tankers

The U.S. military’s Central Command confirmed Tuesday it “destroyed” five oil tankers associated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

In a statement accompanied by video footage of the operation, CENTCOM said the strikes were in response to a set of unsuccessful Iranian missile attacks against a U.S. warship in recent days.

Four of the tankers were struck in the Gulf of Oman, according to CENTCOM, and a fifth was hit near Kharg Island, an island in the Persian Gulf that serves as Iran’s primary terminal for crude oil exports. It alleged the ships were part of Iran’s shadow fleet, a network of tankers used by Iran to export oil and generate revenue for the regime.

“American forces directed the crews to abandon ship before the vessels were struck and rendered inoperable,” CENTCOM said.

CBS News had reported on a U.S. attack against Iranian tankers earlier Tuesday.

CENTCOM also struck three Iranian oil tankers last weekend in retaliation for an earlier attempted Iranian attack against U.S. Navy ships.

“I just had a baby, but that means that the 6-week rule does not apply to me because I had a C-section.”

Porn star Bonnie Blue has been slammed online after displaying her reportedly newborn baby in what appeared to be a preamble to some of her adult content.

In a clip of the video that has gone viral on X, the porn star, whose real name is Tia Billinger, said, “I just had a baby, but that means that the 6-week rule does not apply to me because I had a C-section.”

“Down there, still looking perfect,” she said as she motioned to her genitals with three masked men around her. Billinger is known for stunts that include having sex with groups of men, ranging from the hundreds up to 1,000, for her adult content account.

Earlier in August, Billinger gave birth to the baby and said that the baby was conceived naturally instead of through IVF.

The video was blasted by people online. One user on X said that “social services need to be called immediately.”

Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia ignite fires at oil facilities and wound 73 people, officials say– abcnews.com

CAIRO — A wave of Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia Tuesday wounded more than 70 people and ignited fires at several oil facilities and utilities in the kingdom’s southern region, authorities said, a major escalation in the renewed conflict between an important U.S. ally and the Iranian-backed rebels in Yemen.

The attacks come after weeks of escalating clashes between the Houthis and Saudi-backed government forces in Yemen, which shattered a four-year truce in the country’s civil war.

The flare-up delivered a new jolt to a region already destabilized by nearly three years of wars and brings more uncertainty for the global economy. The fighting between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis threatens to squeeze shipping through the Bab al-Mandeb strait, a critical route of the Arabian Peninsula for oil and global trade. It also comes at a time when the Iran war has nearly halted shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, a key waterway that moved about one-fifth of the world’s oil before the war.

Fighting has raged on multiple fronts including Yemen’s west coast, with government forces saying they have made territorial gains in the provinces of Hodeida, Taiz and Baydah. The Houthis have also launched attacks on Saudi oil facilities and tankers in the Red Sea.

The attacks early Tuesday hit “civilian and economic facilities” in the Saudi cities of Abha, Jazan, Najran and Khamis Mushait, said Maj. Gen. Turki al-Malki, a spokesperson for the Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen.

Al-Malki said the attacks wounded 73 people, including women and children. He didn’t provide further details.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on Monday announced a fresh funding boost for Greenland, seeking to shore up Arctic ties with the self-governing Danish territory amid U.S. President Donald Trump‘s annexation drive.

Speaking alongside Greenlandic Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, the EU chief said the 200-million-euro ($232.3 million) funding package reflects “a clear choice” by Greenland to strengthen ties with the 27-nation bloc.

“This partnership package focuses mainly on three domains, or strategic priorities. We call them the big Cs: connectivity, clean energy [and] critical raw materials,” Von der Leyen told reporters at a news conference.

The funds, which is to be invested this year and in 2027, is designed to bolster ties between the EU and the Arctic, with Von der Leyen describing Greenland as “a strategic ally and a trusted friend.”

It comes shortly after Icelanders voted to reject restarting EU membership negotiations and as Trump renews his push to acquire Greenland on national security grounds.

“The European Union continues to be, not only an important partner for Greenland, but also a loyal and trusted friend,” Greenland’s Nielsen said.

Another European nation has stopped funding the U.N. agency that aids the Palestinians. Finland has followed the U.S. and Sweden in halting donations to the terror-tainted agency.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), is presently being investigated for ties to the terrorist rulers of Gaza. Recently, organizations including the USAID Office of Inspector General (OIG) and NGO UN Watch have uncovered further evidence of what they allege is Hamas infiltration of UNRWA and its members’ participation in the Oct. 7, 2023 terror attacks in southern Israel.

Finland announced it would discontinue funding to the organization at the end of 2026. Finland’s Ministry for Foreign Affairs confirmed to Fox News Digital that the agreement with UNRWA would conclude at the end of 2026 but that “As of yet, no decision has been made on what are the international partners through which Finland’s support will be channeled next year to meet the acute needs in the region.”

Finnish officials did not respond to Fox News Digital’s questions about what prompted the change to the country’s funding for UNRWA.
