USA vil holde tilbake våpen fra Israel hvis de invaderer Rafah.
“I made it clear that if they go into Rafah ..., I’m not supplying the weapons that have been used historically to deal with Rafah, to deal with the cities – that deal with that problem,” Biden said in an interview with CNN.
"Civilians have been killed in Gaza as a consequence of those bombs and other ways in which they go after population centers," he said when asked about 2,000-pound bombs sent to Israel.
Israel this week attacked Rafah, where more than one million Palestinians have sought refuge, but Biden said he did not consider Israel’s strikes a… Les mer

Mørke på en Minnedag: Russlands strategiske angrep på Ukrainas kraftnett
On a day historically marked by the celebration of victory over Nazism in World War II, Ukraine found itself under a different kind of siege. In a grim twist of fate, the country was plunged into darkness, not by the setting sun, but by a calculated and 'massive' attack on its power grid by Russian forces. This assault, described by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a massive nighttime attack, saw more than 50 cruise missiles and explosive drones raining down across seven regions, targeting the very lifelines of energy that power homes, hospitals, and the heartbeat of the… Les mer

Trump planlegger å sende drapslag til Mexico for å ta ut narkobaroner.
Donald Trump is planning to send US assassination squads into Mexico to kill the leaders of drug cartels if he returns to the White House, according to a report.
The former president, 77, has spoken publicly of his determination to tackle America’s fentanyl crisis by “waging war” on the criminal gangs who fuel it.
But Mr Trump is yet to announce the full extent of his plans which, according to Rolling Stone, involve covertly deploying — with or without the Mexican government’s consent — special-operations units tasked with assassinating drug lords.

Marines avslører den nyeste Kamikaze-dronen
OPF-L seeks to arm Marines with easy-to-use, explosives-laden, man-portable loitering munitions, also commonly referred to as kamikaze drones. The Corps is also seeking launchers for these weapons on ground vehicles and uncrewed surface vessels. You can read more about the Corps’ move to a robotic future in the air, sea and ground in our recent story here.
Rogue 1 will allow Marines to conduct “precision strikes against moving and stationary armored targets, soft-skinned vehicles, and dismounted threats,” the company said. “An advanced fuzing system on Rogue 1 features… Les mer

U.S. og Arizona sliter med endringer og utfordringer i innvandringspolitikken
In a significant move that underscores the ongoing debate over immigration policy in the United States, the Biden administration is poised to propose a rule aimed at tightening the asylum process. This development comes as Republican lawmakers in Arizona push for a direct vote on the 'Secure the Border Act,' a clear indication of the polarized views on how to manage immigration and border security. The proposed federal rule by the Biden administration seeks to more rapidly reject migrants who are deemed ineligible for asylum, signaling a shift towards stricter immigration controls… Les mer

Ukraina snur seg til fengsler for å fylle opp frontlinjestyrkene
Ukraine is to start recruiting prisoners to fight against Russia under a new law designed to bolster its frontline forces, including with men convicted of murder or fraud.
Using a tactic Moscow has relied on to fill ranks since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Kyiv would begin to offer certain convicts a path to freedom if they are willing to join a combat unit.
The bill, approved on Wednesday by the Ukrainian parliament, is the latest in a series of measures aimed at mobilising more men to replace casualties and soldiers exhausted from long tours on the frontline. It still requires… Les mer

Boeing Cargo Plane Makes Emergency Landing in Istanbul Without Front Landing Gear
A FedEx Airlines Boeing 767 cargo plane made a dramatic emergency landing at Istanbul Airport without its front landing gear deployed, sparking an immediate investigation by Turkish authorities. The incident, which occurred on Wednesday, fortunately resulted in no casualties, highlighting the effectiveness of the emergency response at one of the world's busiest airports. The aircraft, arriving from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, managed to stay on the runway despite the failure of its landing gear to open, a situation that could have led to a far more serious outcome.

Colorado vedtar lovforslag som åpner stemmesentre i fengsler.
The Colorado legislature on Friday adopted a first-in-the-nation reform last week to fix this. Senate Bill 72, which now awaits the signature of Governor Jared Polis to become law, would give people held in local jails a lot more opportunities to obtain and cast a ballot.
It would require that sheriffs establish polling stations within local jails across Colorado each general election to operate for at least one six-hour period. It would also require every jail to designate a ballot drop-off location, for those who want to vote by mail.
Colorado would be the first state to enact a mandate of… Les mer

Trump Skattekuttforlengelse Kostnad Øker til $3,8 Billioner
The cost of extending the 2017 tax cuts enacted under President Donald Trump has expanded to $3.8 trillion over ten years, putting a massive price tag on what is likely to be a top issue in Washington next year, according to new estimates from Congress’s fiscal scorekeeper.
The Congressional Budget Office’s estimate, released Wednesday, is double the $1.9 trillion cost of the original Trump tax cuts — a more expansive bill which also included permanent reductions in corporate taxes.

Pensjonert hærgeneral sier at USA ikke kan kritisere Israels krigsforbrytelser
At the 2024 AI Expo in Washington D.C. On May 7th 2024:
Ret. Gen. Mark Milley says the US has committed so many war crimes over the years, it has no right to criticize Israel's devastation of Gaza
Palantir CEO Alex Karp chimes in: "The peace activists are actually the war activists, and we're the peace activists."
Karp says of Gaza anti-genocide protesters, "You are an infection inside our society!"
Gen. Milley repeats debunked Israeli propaganda about beheadings and sexual assault on Oct 7 to argue that the US would have done the same thing Israel is currently doing to Gaza if it had been attacked.
Karp presents the Palestine solidarity campus protest movement as an existential threat to American empire: "If we lose the intellectual battle, we will not be able to deploy any army in the West, ever."

Det amerikanske militæret fullfører Gaza-hjelpebrygge til tross for værforstyrrelser
The United States military has recently completed the construction of a significant aid pier intended for Gaza, marking a pivotal step in efforts to enhance the delivery of humanitarian assistance to the region. However, the deployment of this crucial infrastructure faces delays due to adverse weather conditions, with high winds and sea swells making it currently unsafe to position the two-part facility along the Gaza coast. The Pentagon announced this development on Tuesday, highlighting the challenges that natural elements are imposing on this international aid initiative.

USA "stopper" forsendelse av 3500 bomber til Israel
The shipment was meant to transfer 3,500 bombs to Israel, which the United States halted over worries about the large munitions in the package being used in an urban setting, an anonymous administration official told the Associated Press. The package included 1,800 2,000-pound bombs and 1,700 500-pound bombs, according to the AP.
The pause marks the first time the U.S. has publicly held up military aid to Israel since the October 7 Hamas attack. An American official described the decision to the Washington Post as a “shot across the bow” to signal the Biden administration’s unease with a Rafah operation.

The attack on Tuesday night was directed at facilities in Kyiv and six other cities, authorities said. Moscow continues to target Ukraine’s energy infrastructure in the hope of denting industry and public appetite for fighting back against its invasion.
Russia launched more than 50 missiles and 20 Iranian-made “Shahed” drones – long-range unmanned vehicles with built-in warheads – authorities said.

Palestinerne trodde en våpenhvile var i boks. Så rullet tankene inn.
Hours after Israel’s military told them to seek a new place of safety, Gazans in the southern city of Rafah took to the streets Monday night to celebrate: At the 11th hour, Hamas said it had accepted a proposal for a cease-fire. People cheered. Sweets were passed around.
A few hours later, it became clear that the celebrations were premature. The agreement accepted by Hamas turned out to be a counteroffer that Israel hadn’t seen and wouldn’t agree to, shattering hopes of an imminent end to months of hostilities.
