🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱⚡- BREAKING: "Israel preparing for a possible strike on Iran, and believes it can hit Iran's nuclear sites, missile systems, and air force assets. Israel may need US approval, refuelling support and important munitions," - Yediot Ahronot.
Yediot Ahronot report is surprising, in that Israel is no longer seeking a joint US-Israeli attack on Iran, and that Israel may go alone.
Israel only requests from the US to "push for a tougher nuclear deal after the attack."
🇪🇺🤝🚩 The European Commission admits it has used EU funds that were supposed to "fight climate change" for financing left-wing NGOs and climate organizations with the aim of silencing the voices of European conservatives in a secretive influence operation.
The funds came from the LIFE Program, which is supposed to fund environmental initiatives and has had a total budget of EUR 9 billion since 2014.
The LIFE program is a funding instrument dedicated to environmental, nature conservation, and climate action projects but some of the funds were instead used to attack conservative and eurosceptic voices according to the Austrian newspaper eXXpress.
According to internal documents, the targeted campaigns were designed in cooperation between EU agencies and climate NGOs, including planning which critics would be targeted.
According to the European Commission, changes are now to be introduced to the LIFE program to prevent future excesses.
Guidelines banning subsidized lobbying by EU institutions were already introduced in autumn 2024 - but it is only now that the abuses are being publicly confirmed.
Only a third of organizations and NGOs that received money from the LIFE Program openly disclose their income and how the funds are used, which has led to criticism of lack of transparency.
The former EU Climate Commissioner Frans Timmermans orchestrated the secret contracts with environmental NGOs.
These contracts reportedly included detailed lobbying plans specifying targets and goals. It means that the European Commission provided not just funding but also strategic direction on whom to oppose in a coordinated effort to attack political opponents of the European Commission's climate agenda.
NGOs were instructed to focus on critics of the Green Deal, such as conservative MEPs, national politicians, or parties (Austria’s FPÖ and ÖVP parties are likely among the targets) who resisted stringent climate regulations.

🇬🇧 Exclusive: British police are making more than 30 arrests a day over offensive posts on social media and other platforms
Thousands of people are being detained and questioned for sending messages that cause “annoyance”, “inconvenience” or “anxiety”
Custody data obtained by The Times shows that officers are making about 12,000 arrests a year under section 127 of the Communications Act 2003 and section 1 of the Malicious Communications Act 1988
The acts make it illegal to cause distress by sending “grossly offensive” messages or sharing content of an “indecent, obscene or menacing character” via the internet, telephone or post
Officers from 37 police forces made 12,183 arrests in 2023, the equivalent of about 33 per day. This marks an almost 58 per cent rise in arrests since before the pandemic. In 2019, forces logged 7,734 detentions
The statistics have provoked criticism from civil liberties groups The Free Speech Union and Big Brother Watch that the authorities are over-policing the internet and threatening free speech using “vague” communications laws

🍼🇩🇪 Where do Germany's super-large families with 9 or more children live?
There is a fairly large cluster in northwestern Germany that coincides with the area where Mennonites from the former Soviet Union settled down. Eastern Germany and Bavaria on the other hand hardly have any.
🇾🇪/🇾🇪 Yemeni pro-government forces are reportedly preparing to launch a ground offensive aimed at retaking the strategic port city of Hodeidah, according to officials speaking to CNN. The planned operation is expected to be backed by coordinated Saudi and U.S. air and naval support.
The decision to pursue a ground assault comes amid growing assessments that continued airstrikes alone have stopped short of halting the Iranian-backed Houthi group’s persistent drone and ballistic missile attacks targeting commercial vessels in the Red Sea.

📝 Cobalt Anon: "Pro-Government" forces in Yemen tends to be synonymous with a hodgepodge of UAE-backed mercenaries from East Africa. Think Haftar's Libya, Chad, RSF's Sudan, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, M23's Congo, Kenya, Ethiopia, Somaliland, Puntland, Jubaland, and STC separatists from Southern Yemen.

🇪🇺 🔥 EU countries will discuss setting up a joint intergovernmental defence fund
The fund is called the European Defence Mechanism (EDM), and non-member countries such as the UK, Ukraine and Norway will be able to become its members. Brussels would buy military equipment, charge participants for its use and issue loans for its procurement.
