QATAR - An EU mediator said Tehran and Washington failed to resolve outstanding issues during negotiations in Qatar. The latest round of talks held to revive the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and a group of major world powers has ended with little headway being made, officials have said. Both sides blame one another for the stalled negotiations. European Union mediator Enrique Mora concluded two days of “intense” talks in the Qatari capital on Wednesday, stating that the United States and Iran had failed to make “the progress the EU team… had hoped-for.” He nonetheless said the delegations would “keep working with even greater urgency” to renew the nuclear agreement, despite months of heated negotiations yielding few results.

GERMANY - Wood-burning stoves and firewood in short supply in Germany as citizens fear freezing to death due to gas shortages. In 2018 during his speech to the UN General Assembly President Donald Trump lodged a warning to Germany about their country’s reliance on Russian energy. The German delegation laughed on camera at the remarks. In June Russia announced it will reduce natural gas flows through a key European pipeline by roughly 40% into Germany. German politicians called this a political move. Trump was right again. The Germans aren’t laughing now. In fact, gas prices are so high in Germany today that wood-burning stoves and firewood have become scarce nationwide. German citizens are loading up on wood to heat their homes next year — just like they did in the Middle Ages.

GERMANY - Germany is in the process of building the largest military in Europe, Chancellor Olaf Scholz said in a pledge that marked a 180-degree turn in the country's historic stance on defence. Post-Cold War Germany steadily reduced the size of its army from around 500,000 troops at the time of reunification in 1990 to just 200,000.

ISRAEL - Israel is building a regional air defense alliance to defend its members from Iran, Defense Minister Benny Gantz said Monday, appearing to confirm, at least in part, a report that the Israeli military was in talks with its Saudi and Qatari counterparts on the matter. “We are building our wide partnership with additional countries in the region to ensure a secure, stable and prosperous Middle East. Among other things, this also includes aerial defense,” Gantz said, speaking at the start of his Blue and White party’s faction meeting in the Knesset. “We will strengthen this, as a stable Middle East is an international, regional and Israeli interest of the highest order,” he said.

USA - Lawmakers are betting $45 million that a nuclear war does not automatically mean the end of the world. Representative Jim Cooper (Democrat for Tennessee) recently added an amendment to the House version of the Fiscal 2023 National Defense Authorization Act that would provide $45 million for the Nuclear-Armed Sea-Launched Cruise Missile, even though President Joe Biden’s administration has indicated it wants to stop the program.

USA - The priorities of the fascist Democrat Party are sick and delusional. With Biden destroying the economy and Justice Department and allowing anyone to enter the country unvetted, the Democrats are working on a trans bill of rights. The average American is trying to make it to the next paycheck due to the massive inflation and high gas prices created by the Biden regime, yet Democrats think the number one priority today is a trans bill of rights. This is priority number 1,000 for the average American if even that. Biden’s America is facing a recession and the Democrats are pushing trans rights!

UK - Midwives have today denounced claims they 'assign' the sex of children at birth in the latest row on woke language in the NHS. The wording came from the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) and Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) in an 'inclusivity' statement. Their document said: 'We recognise maternity and gynaecological services will be accessed by women, gender diverse individuals and people whose gender identity does not align with the sex they were assigned at birth.' But some midwives hit back at the colleges, arguing that they merely 'observe' the reality of a baby's sex at birth — as opposed to deciding it themselves. Jo Gould, a midwife in Sussex, said she was 'ashamed' of her representative body and that the statement was 'nonsense' and 'offensive'. 'When the RCM start using the language of gender ideology and not biological fact, how can the public have faith in you?,' she said. 'It is offensive to your members, who do not "assign sex at birth". 'I am a member and I am ashamed to be represented by the RCM when I read this absolute nonsense.' Another Twitter user who claimed to be a midwife of 23 years said: 'I can assure you, I have never assigned a sex at birth, it is observed and immutable.'

SWITZERLAND - World Health Organization (WHO) chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Wednesday turned on the US Supreme Court over the decision to reverse Roe v Wade, calling the move “a setback” that would cost lives. He spoke out during a media briefing at the WHO headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, and alleged decades of scientific data prove access to safe and legal abortion saves lives, AP reports. “The evidence is irrefutable,” Tedros said. “Restricting (abortion) drives women and girls toward unsafe abortions resulting in complications, even death.” He said safe abortion should be understood as health care and warned that limiting its access would disproportionately hit women from the poorest and most marginalized communities. “We hadn’t really expected this from the US,” Tedros said, adding that he was concerned the Supreme Court’s decision was a move “backwards.” “We had really hoped the US would lead on this issue,” Tedros said.

USA - Now, scientists say, these living symbols of longevity, strength and perseverance may be at an evolutionary crossroads. Hotter droughts and bark beetles are for the first time in recorded history killing bristlecones, according to a recent study published in the scientific journal Forest Ecology and Management. Since 2013, thousands of the trees that ranged in age from 144 to 1,612 years have been killed on Telescope Peak — the site of Death Valley National Park’s lone population of bristlecones — the study says. Many more have been killed in high-altitude bristlecone forests scattered across southern Utah. On a recent morning, MacKenzie, 74, wanted to confirm that the culturally significant Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest, home to Methuselah, a 4,853-year-old specimen some say is the oldest living tree on Earth, remained free of the insects.

UKRAINE - Zelensky is an actor. He is playing his role in this Great Reset which is to destroy Western civilization as we know it so they get to create their One-World Government and the United Nations will then appear to be the GREAT PEACEMAKER.On February 20th, 2022, VP Harris blurted out that Ukraine should join NATO which was a direct violation of the Belgrade Agreement where Ukraine, the 3rd largest nuclear power at the time, gave up its nuclear weapons and NATO promised not to invade as did Russia provided Ukraine was to remain NEUTRAL. Then 3 days later, Zelensky announced that he would pursue nuclear weapons to defend against Russia.The next day, Putin invaded to protect the Donbas on February 24th.

USA - The US Army will set up a permanent headquarters in Poland. Washington will significantly increase its military presence in Europe to “defend every inch of allied territory,” US President Joe Biden said on Wednesday after arriving in Madrid, Spain for the annual NATO summit. The US 5th Army Corps will set up a headquarters in Poland, while 5,000 additional troops will be deployed to Romania. The Pentagon will also boost rotational deployments in the Baltic states, dispatch two additional squadrons of F-35 fighter planes to Britain, and station additional air defenses in Germany and Italy. The US Navy will increase the number of destroyers stationed in Spain from four to six. There are already around 100,000 US troops stationed in Europe. “We’re stepping up, proving that NATO is more needed now than it ever has been and it’s as important as it ever has been,” Biden said.

USA - Fed throws Biden under the bus, says he’s collapsing the country. Recastled CEO Kosha Gada says Chair of the US Federal Reserve Jerome Powell is joining the “chorus of people” throwing US President Joe Biden “under the bus” for the country’s struggling economy. “The biggest thing really is gas prices, because gas and fuel is basically an input component in every little thing we consume,” Ms Gada told Sky News host Rowan Dean. “With Trump at its lowest point it was about $12 a barrel, crude oil, right now it is $111 a barrel.”

UK - “The brutal Russian invasion of Ukraine has transformed the context of cybersecurity” worldwide, said British National Cyber Security Center CEO Linda Cameron. Speaking at the Tel Aviv University Cyber Week on Tuesday, Cameron said that the lives of millions of innocent people are in jeopardy due to cyber threats, just like on the battlefield... Even as the world is focused on the Russian threat to Ukraine and Eastern Europe, the UK cyber chief said, “We must not lose sight of the longer-term strategic challenges from China as a technological and economic power,” since Beijing is spreading across the globe with “cyber and technology for control.” She warned of using technologies developed by authoritarian countries that could be used to passively and quietly influence and limit the choices of people in free countries. “The democracies of the world have to develop technology and systems that avoid products that are not in line with our values,” said Cameron.

USA - The city council of West Hollywood, California, voted Monday night to cut the number of armed sheriff’s deputies by four, replacing them with 30 unarmed “ambassadors,” despite a crime wave and a national backlash over “defund the police.” The Democrat-dominated haven, whose mayor once tried to ban Donald Trump from speaking in the city, and which honored porn star Stormy Daniels with the key to the city during her crusade against Trump, has seen crime rise 137% in one year. Nevertheless, NBC Los Angeles reported, the city council voted 3-2 to cut police funding in deference to the “Black Lives Matter” movement.

USA - With Disney’s financial status rapidly declining in recent months due to advancing their woke agenda, one would think they would hit the brakes and start delivering truly family-friendly entertainment. Nope. They’re doubling down on pushing LGBTQIA+ normalization and supremacy onto children.
