US president Joe #Biden has approved a new national security memorandum ahead of Donald #Trump’s return to the White House that could serve as a road map for the incoming administration as it looks to counter growing cooperation among #China, #Iran, #NorthKorea and #Russia, the White House said Wednesday.

The officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity under ground rules set by the #WhiteHouse, said the classified memorandum would not be made public because of the sensitivity of some of its findings.

The document includes four broad recommendations: improving U.S. government interagency cooperation, speeding up the sharing of information with allies about the four adversaries, calibrating the U.S. government’s use of sanctions and other economic tools for maximum effectiveness, and bolstering preparation to manage simultaneous crises involving the adversaries.

The official said the document is intended to help the next administration build “capacity” as it shapes its policies on some the most difficult foreign policies it will face.

#WhiteHouse Says Democrats Who Oppose Weapons To #Israel Are Aiding #Hamas

HuffPost obtained a White House message to senators ahead of a crucial vote on sending the Israelis more arms amid the #Gaza and Lebanon wars. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is helping the administration shield the policy.

The #Biden administration is aggressively pushing senators to bless continued U.S. #weapons shipments for Israel ahead of a first-of-its-kind vote in Congress on the policy, HuffPost has learned ― and administration officials are suggesting lawmakers who vote against the arms are empowering American and Israeli foes from #Iran to the militant groups Hamas and #Hezbollah, which the U.S. treats as terror organizations.

The real rulers are the Elon Musks and #Trump is just on stage for the smear theater. Unfortunately, the leftists who want to redistribute #wealth no longer exist in American politics. The right has stepped into this gap and taken over the problems of poor people for their politics. How can the US be a #democracy if you have to be a millionaire to become #president or need the favor of millionaires to make it?

The #Biden admin admitted today that #CIA/DoD Special Ops have helped #Israel locate and track #Hamas leaders, an involvement in the #Gaza war that goes far beyond what the govt previously claimed. This follows Wednesday’s killing of... #Hamas' #YayhaSinwar, but also comes after months of assurances by the #WhiteHouse that American intel and special ops were merely involved in #hostage recovery."

Debate in nuclear-armed former colony fails to reassure global community
The televised face-off between the leading candidates for US #president amplified widespread concerns over the state of #democracy in the troubled North American nation.

...

Held in the relatively stable northeastern state of #Pennsylvania on the eve of the 23rd anniversary of the country’s worst terrorist #attack, the debate was a chance to showcase the democratic progress the country had made since the violent, shambolic elections and attempted #coup nearly four years ago.

Ariel Kahane's Hebrew web page: A political official says, in light of the 98th Division's exercise and the Prime Minister's viewing of it: “The exercise is a message.”

The maneuver, the selection of the formation of the 98th Division, which was conducting the maneuver in northern #Gaza, and the Prime Minister’s participation in it, were aimed at sending a clear message to #Hezbollah that what the #Israeli army did in #Gaza could be repeated in #Lebanon.

Israeli Defense Minister #Gallant in the #WhiteHouse: “The goals and objectives of the war are shared between #Israel and the United States. Even when we disagree on the path, we solve them in closed rooms. Now we are summarizing matters.”

Gallant and Sullivan discussed the necessity of changing the security reality on the border with #Lebanon

During a press conference, National Security Council spokesperson John #Kirby emphasized that despite Israeli airstrikes targeting displaced Palestinians' in #Rafah, Israel has not crossed US "red lines".

Kirby stated that the US is not turning a "blind eye" to the plight of Palestinian civilians, acknowledging the "tragic mistake" made by Israel in the airstrike that killed at least 45 Palestinians in tents.

Regarding the presence of Israeli tanks in Rafah, Kirby noted that the US has not observed large-scale ground operations or coordinated "maneuvers" against multiple targets by Israeli troops.

The New York Times reported that the bombs used in Sunday's airstrike were of US origin, specifically GBU-39 bombs. American officials have encouraged Israel to use these bombs to reduce civilian casualties.
