ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu, a demonic rakshasa responsible for the deaths of nearly 75,000 human beings in the Gaza Strip and displacing one million people in Lebanon, had previosuly warned NATO member Turkiye not to deploy forces to her ally Syria.

At a Dearborn, Michigan Town Hall meeting, a pastor of the 180 Church, Lorenzo Sewell, got very vocal about the increasing influence of Muslim culture and Sharia Law in particular. Dearborn has a Muslim mayor. Sewell said, "America, we have lost this city. This is a city that is no longer up under American laws; we are up under Sharia law. We will not have it anymore. Enough is enough." Other protestors against the growing influence of Sharia Law are saying that Dearborn is protecting Muslim agitators and arresting non-Muslims. The outburst, which came amid a series of other anti-Islam protests in Dearborn, vocalizes fears that Muslim populations in Michigan are working to bring their communities more in line with their religious worldview.

Moscow and its surrounding regions have been forced to reimpose purchase limits on fuel, capping sales at between 50 and 60 litres per vehicle. As Ukraine intensifies its "deep strike" campaign, hitting another major oil refinery on Wednesday, the strain on Russia's domestic energy grid continues to grow. Across at least 12 regions, miles of gridlocked traffic now stall forecourts, with motorists waiting up to 30 hours only to find the pumps empty. Read more
GUATEMALA CITY (AP) -- The United States has deported nearly 2,300 Mexicans to Guatemala this year and sent at least dozens more to Honduras, according to official data, a shift from the beginning of U.S. President Donald Trump's second term when such transfers were minimal. Until now, Mexicans deported from the United States were sent almost exclusively back to their country by air and land. Only a handful arrived in other countries. Some civil organizations believe this change reported in recent days is a way to increase pressure on Mexico, whose government has protested the deaths of 17 Mexicans in immigration custody or during enforcement operations. This also comes as Trump has expanded agreements with allied Latin American countries to conduct joint operations in the region against criminal groups and has increased its security demands to Mexico.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- An Army unit based in Europe that was specializing in drone warfare has been directed to end its efforts to learn and use the battlefield technology and return to being a traditional infantry battalion, officials said Thursday. For more nearly a year, soldiers of the 173rd Airborne Brigade have been experimenting and building their own drones, as well as participating in drills on waging unmanned warfare after Ukraine pioneered such tactics in its yearslong conflict with Russia. Last November, 600 soldiers formed a battalion that specialized in drone warfare and was set up to be used as a dedicated unit that could deploy anywhere drones were required. Read more
