US Secretary of State Antony Blinken continues tour of Middle East | BBC News
The US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is continuing his diplomatic efforts in the Middle East, in a bid to prevent a regional escalation due to the conflict in Gaza.
Blinken will hold talks in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia on containing the international shipping threat in the Red Sea by Houthi rebels.
He will then travel to Israel, after warning that the Gaza conflict could spread across the region without concerted peace efforts.
Blinken started the five-day Middle East diplomatic effort in Jordan and Qatar on Sunday, seeking to avert wider unrest in the region.

One person has been killed and 11 injured in a second strike on the international airport in the Saudi capital Riyadh, officials have said.
A Saudi military spokesman said a projectile had hit King Khalid International Airport on Sunday, causing a fire in a passenger hall. Saudi Arabia’s civil aviation authority said in a statement that one person, a Pakistani resident, had been killed in the attack.
It comes a day after a strike on the same airport killed 13 people and injured 308 others.
The Houthis in Yemen said they were behind them and warned airlines and passengers against using Saudi Arabian airports and airspace.

Inside the secret factories making Britain’s fake cigarettes – Behind The Investigation | BBC News
One in every six cigarettes smoked in the UK is counterfeit.
In this episode of BBC News Behind the Investigation, Melanie Stewart-Smith talks to File on 4 Investigates reporter Jane Deith about how the team uncovered the global criminal networks flooding Britain with fake cigarettes, and the human cost behind every cheap pack.
Jane explains how the team traced the supply chain from secret factories in Belgium to corner shops, minimarts and cash and carries across the UK.
We also look at why gangs are moving from drugs to fake cigarettes. A former senior Europol official says they now make as much money as they do from drugs, with far lower prison sentences if they’re caught. The profits are being used to fund weapons, people smuggling and even terrorism.
Do people really know what they’re funding when they buy cheap cigarettes?

Americans will head to the polls in 17 days to decide how the rest of Donald Trump’s presidency will play out.
Thousands of races are taking place across the US, at different levels of government, on 3 November. But the main event for voters will be electing members of the House of Representatives and the Senate, the two chambers that make up Congress. Both of them are currently controlled by the Republicans, the president’s party.
The success or failure of Trump’s final two years in office could rest on the outcome.
The BBC examines the key battleground states and what the Republicans and Democrats are doing to win these crucial midterms.

To cease the on going war between Israel vs Gaza no US authority need to go to Turkey or Qatar nor any Muslim countries just go Israel and tell them to stop the war simultaneously stop sending any warheads to Israel. It seams going to Qatar, Egypt, Turkey or any other Muslim countries is nothing but to deceive Muslim nations. Giving blank chek to Israel and giving false promises to Paleistain. This USA & UK has been doing since last 75 years!

Mr. blinken is a jew. So does his diplomacy in favour of zionist state of Israel. What he is doing an eye wash. Trying to full the world. Be sure the end result will be there will be no state of Israel in middle East.

The United States cannot classify Israel as genocidal, because it is atomic genocidal, biochemical genocidal and ecocidal in Vietnam.
White House Secretary: 'United States does not support ceasefire in Gaza'
During a press conference this Tuesday (9), the strategic communications coordinator of the White House National Security Council, John Kirby, stated that the United States is not currently supporting a ceasefire in Gaza.

😢😢😢😢 A really bad and nasty retired General Dynamics director, previously worked in San Diego, probably more than 85 yrs old now, is exploiting illegally US monitoring satellite to harass normal US civilians, inside USA & all over the world for his own entertainment & amusement.
These remote sensors of the monitoring satellites are capable of interpreting the words you're thinking in your mind, may be, by air vibration or by scanning the brainwaves from your brain.
The Israeli IDF are using similar satellite technologies to spy on the Hamas leadership hiding deep inside the Gaza Tunnels. IDF once released footage of these videos in much degraded resolution.
This retired General Dynamics director could have been the mastermind behind the plane crash killing the Secretary of Commerce Ronald Brown of the Clinton Administration, in the plane crash in 1996 in Croatia.
The United States as we learned and studied in American high school does not exist anymore; it has been destroyed.
Joe Biden allows this to happen…
United States have been dead. American citizens don't have human rights.

according to the text of the bill released by the Senate Appropriations Committee (regarding military aid to Israel), it included a provision that said: "any congressional notification requirement applicable to funds made available to Israel may be waived if the Secretary of State determines that it is in the interest of national security of the United States".
And who is the Secretary of State?
And now he goes from door to door in the Arab world asking for what?
