US President Joe Biden has been given a chilling nuclear warning over attacking Iran after three US soldiers were killed by a 'kamikaze' drone.

Ex-UN weapons inspector David Albright said the rogue state could be led into thinking that building nuclear warheads is their “best way out” if they are directly targeted by the US in retaliation for the deaths.

Mr Albright, who has previously claimed that Iran is just five months away from building 12 nuclear weapons, agreed it was important that the US sent a "clear message" by targeting the militants who were responsible for killings. But he urged Biden not to launch any direct strikes on Iran to avert a wider conflict amid heightened tensions.

The attack took place in the northeast of Jordan near the Syrian border, US Central Command said. American troops have long used the country as a basing point - with some 3,000 soldiers typically stationed there.

Is it time to recall the many soldiers all over the Middle East and avoid ending the world accidently with one bomb?

Fhooting..

 

The Ukrainian president’s shooting star has lost much of its altitude and gleam as Russia’s grinding invasion approaches the two-year mark.
An old war has turned into a plodding stalemate. The ballyhooed Ukrainian “offensive” has stalled. 

The promised “breakthrough” remains stubbornly elusive – if possible at all.

 The lethal, tit-for-tat exchanges have sadly become routine. Stoicism has replaced outrage. However it may be defined, “victory” is far beyond strategic or even conceivable reach.

Mass demonstrations of solidarity with Ukraine’s “brave” and “just” fight disappeared many months ago. 

Lately, the only “news” that Zelenskyy and Ukraine are inviting is mostly bad – courtesy, in part, of unflattering leaks from a skittish White House.

A Judge overseeing the criminal prosecution of Donald Trump and his associates Thursday indicated he was open to allowing a co-defendant to access communications between the Fulton County district attorney’s office and the federal government.

Inside the courtroom, Harry MacDougald, an attorney for former Department of Justice official Jeff Clark, argued a motion seeking to obtain correspondence between Willis’ office and the Department of Justice as well as President Joe Biden’s White House.

During the arguments, Fulton County prosecutor Alex Bernick disclosed that there were previously undisclosed written communications between the White House and DA’s office related to the logistics of calling federal officials to testify.

Bernick’s acknowledgment is one of the first clear signs of communication between the White House and one of the state prosecutors against Trump, who has repeatedly sought to frame any coordination as improper despite experts who’ve noted that such coordination is commonplace

 

First Day..

 

A nine-governor coalition led by Governor Hochul of New York and includes Governor Katie Hobbs of Arizona, Governor Gavin Newsom of California, Governor Jared Polis of Colorado, Governor J.B. Pritzker of Illinois, Governor Wes Moore of Maryland, Governor Maura Healey of Massachusetts, Governor Phil Murphy of New Jersey and Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico send a message to someone.

“It is clear our national immigration system is outdated and unprepared to respond to this unprecedented global migration,” reads the letter, which is signed by Ms. Hochul and the governors of Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, New Mexico, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Maryland.

However President Biden first day in the office, On January 20, 2021, just hours after being sworn in, President Joe Biden took several immigration-related actions that together signal a new era for immigration policy.   And here we are after the first day.  Just a thought.

Senate..

 All but two Senate Democrats are supporting a measure endorsing the creation of a Palestinian state as part of a national security package that includes military aid to Israel.

Why it matters: It's a clear rebuke of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's recent comments rejecting the notion of Palestinian statehood, which have inflamed tensions with congressional Democrats.

• The measure reiterates that it is U.S. policy to "support a negotiated comprehensive solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict resulting in two states with Israelis and Palestinians living side by side in peace."
• It comes after Netanyahu, despite pressure from President Biden to support a Palestinian state after the Israel-Hamas war, said Israel "needs security control" in Gaza and the West Bank as part of any peace deal.,,, Axios.
• Israel has to start rebuild the damage caused in Gaza by indiscriminate bombing for weeks.   Just a thought.

Veto..

Israel doesn’t have the right to “veto” Palestinian statehood, European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said on Tuesday amid a fierce debate between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the international community over what happens once the Gaza war is over.

“Israel cannot have the veto right to the self-determination of the Palestinian people,” Borrell told reporters during a press conference in Brussels on Tuesday.

“They do not have a veto right. If the United Nations recognizes – as it has recognized many times – the self-determination right of the Palestinian people, nobody can veto it,” he declared.

Netanyahu, who is seeking to shore up political support, which has been flagging, on the right. He has been blunt in recent weeks about his opposition to Palestinian statehood, even as the United States, the EU, and moderate Arab countries have insisted that a two-state process must occur once the war is over.

Netanyahu still wants to absorb other parts of the Palestinian land to expand the Jewish State and displace the Palestinian people out of the land.
