🚨🇵🇰🇮🇷Every country that borders Iran has a U.S. military base except Pakistan.
That is exactly why Iran trusts it.
Wajahat S. Khan says Pakistan has quietly pulled together Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Qatar into what people in Islamabad are calling "Islamic NATO."
Five major militaries aligned around one goal: less U.S. military presence in the region.
Pakistan has troops and fighter jets in Saudi Arabia, won Iran's trust during the war, and is now conducting negotiations no one else can.

🇮🇱 A West Bank council has finally admitted Israeli settlers have been systematically raping kids as young as three and four.
After years of denial, the Gush Etzion Regional Council acknowledged ritualistic sexual abuse cases in its communities following a bombshell Kan 11 investigation.
The abuse spanned years and is emerging as one of the most organized and disturbing sexual abuse cases ever exposed in Israel.
For years, allegations were met with denials and deep skepticism, but in a complete 180, the council is now acknowledging the problem, calling it "pure evil and moral depravity that has no place in human society."

🗞️ New: Israeli officials are privately urging the Trump administration to abandon negotiations with Iran, assassinate Iran’s parliament speaker and lead negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, and launch a new round of strikes targeting Iran’s oil infrastructure, according to a classified intelligence assessment cited by Capital & Empire.
Israeli officials reportedly believe renewed attacks could trigger economic collapse and eventually regime change, even as U.S. and Iranian negotiators work toward a framework to extend the ceasefire and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
The push comes amid growing alarm in Israel that a negotiated settlement could leave Iran politically strengthened, preserve its regional influence, and cement its leverage over one of the world’s most important energy chokepoints.

“Donald Trump” the buffalo has been spared from sacrifice in Bangladesh after going viral.
“Donald Trump,” the rare albino buffalo named for its blond tuft of hair, was hours away from being sacrificed for Eid al-Adha… until the government stepped in.
It had already been sold for ritual slaughter when viral videos turned it into a national attraction.
Crowds started flooding the farm to see the nearly 1,500-pound animal in person, forcing officials to intervene due to security concerns.
Now the buffalo is headed to the national zoo in Dhaka instead.
Palestinian shepherd Sameeha Rasheed said Jewish settlers stole 45 sheep from her home in the West Bank before Eid al-Adha, depriving her family of income https://t.co/a2qJGxtP1Q
You can’t call yourself a Christian if you don’t demand these war crimes to stop.

🚨 To Senator Lindsey Graham… A message from the heart of Riyadh
Read this carefully, for what you are about to hear is not a flowery diplomatic statement, but the truth from the capital of decision-making that is leading the world towards a just peace:
Firstly: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia does not need lessons in ‘boldness’ from anyone. Remember, on 22 May 2026, Riyadh launched its historic ‘International Coalition for a Two-State Solution’ initiative, bringing together 165 nations from across the globe to endorse, recognise and support it. This is our international standing, and this is our boldness, which needs no endorsement from you.
Secondly: The entire world holds the Kingdom in the highest regard and esteem. We build our strategic relations with the East and the West, with Beijing, Moscow and Washington, and with the European Union, Britain and other influential international powers, in accordance with our national interests and our firm principles, not according to anyone’s dictates. And if you issue a statement linking the continuation of relations or threatening ‘grave repercussions’, you are thereby – in the most blatant manner – undermining the historic strategic relationship between the Kingdom and the United States. Such crude language is unbecoming of allies, and we address it only to those who are ignorant of the Kingdom’s standing and prestige.
Thirdly: Who inspired you to ask us to join the Abraham Accords as if you were doing us a favour or dictating our choices? Let us be clear with you: our position on the Palestinian cause is not a bargaining chip, and neither threats nor enticements will sway it. There will be no peace without the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital. This is the position we have declared to the world, and this is the essence of our initiative, which 165 countries have rallied behind. We are on the right side of history, and international legitimacy is on our side.
Fourthly: A word of free advice… Before you threaten and make threats, take a good look at the bigger picture. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia draws its strength first from God, then from its wise leaders throughout the centuries, from the founder King Abdulaziz, may God have mercy on him, to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz, and on to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who is leading this historic transformation, alongside its loyal people and all free people of the world. Rest assured that history proves that Riyadh has never bowed down, and will not bow down today.
In conclusion: history will remember those who led the world towards a just peace, and it will remember those who gambled on the language of threats and blackmail and lost the bet. Do not misjudge the situation… again.
A deportation flight left Dublin today with 22 Polish & 12 Lithuanian nationals on board. The charter landed in Warsaw and then Vilnius. All 34 received prison sentences for crimes committed in Ireland and, as EU citizens, were removed under the Free Movement Directive.
