US Secretary of State Antony Blinken continues tour of Middle East | BBC News

Published

on



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.

    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.

    Lloyd Austin has been sick and stressed because of the Gaza, China and Russia wars Genocide Joe is waging for maximum death and destruction—- and Lloyd protested in private like a coward, went AWOL and deserted his position as defense secretary.

    Going everywhere achieves nothing. Not even talking about cease fire of stop war. Palestinians should invite Chinese and Russia troops to protect them against a terrorist state.

    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.

    January 13, 2024 at 11:52 am

    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?

Wildfires: 1.8 million UK homes at risk, experts warn – Behind The Investigation | BBC News

Published

on



Lives “will be lost” unless the UK does more to prepare for wildfires, experts warn, after a record-breaking summer saw 1,350 wildfires in England and Wales alone.

“Tinderbox” conditions created by a long, hot, dry summer brought the worst wildfire season on record in 2026.

Dozens of homes were destroyed or damaged, huge areas of land burned, and one man died.

The UK government banned disposable barbecues, sent a wildfire alert to people’s mobile phones and made £97m available, and a wildfire summit is planned – but are we still behind the curve?

In this episode of Behind the Investigation, Melanie Stewart-Smith speaks to Adrian Goldberg from File on 4 Investigates about what he found on the ground.
