Thank you to the American authorities for finally setting Assange free. I understand some of you wanted to punish him for much longer & in potentially more draconian ways; it is to your credit that you have relented.
Thank you to the Australian authorities for working with the American authorities in this matter & thank you to British authorities for keeping Assange alive & for any contributions you have made towards his emancipation.

US military is sending large number of troops and military equipments to Jordanian and occupied Syrian bases in anticipation of the planned #Netanyahu attack against Lebanon.
#US, #UK, #France and possibly #Italy will actively participate in defending Israel while Israel will have free hands in their attacks against any targets in #Lebanon and #Syria.
It seems I missed something...

The Open University was founded by the Labour government under Prime Minister Harold Wilson. Wilson was a strong advocate, using the vision of Michael Young. Planning commenced in 1965 under Minister of State for Education Jennie Lee, who established a model for the OU as one of widening access to the highest standards of scholarship in higher education, and set up a planning committee consisting of university vice-chancellors, educationalists and television broadcasters, chaired by Sir Peter Venables. The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) Assistant Director of Engineering at the time James Redmond, had obtained most of his qualifications at night school, and his natural enthusiasm for the project did much to overcome the technical difficulties of using television to broadcast teaching programmes. — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_University

Britain Jails Two Journalists
LONDON, February 21, 1977 -- The government today jailed two British journalists for allegedly receiving secret information. — https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1977/02/22/britain-jails-two-journalists/bbc901c5-8adf-4837-93da-0b97c424859d/ #assange #uk #journalism #media #censor #history ">

US Has Spent $1B on Houthi Attacks But Militants’ Arsenal Unfazed: Intel
🔶️ American warships have spent a great deal of munitions to intercept Houthi drones and missiles targeting ships in retaliation for Israel’s war(Genocide ) in #Gaza.
🔶️ “Houthi stockpiles appear nowhere near exhausted, even as sporadic #US and #UK strikes against them continue,” said Behnam Ben Taleblu of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies think tank.
🔶️ The assessment is contrary to a previous statement by US #AirForces Central Commander Lt. Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, who said the Iran-backed rebels appeared to be running low on drones and anti-ship #ballistic #missiles.
🔶️ Earlier this year, #Pentagon undersecretary for acquisition William LaPlante hinted that the cost of countering Houthi attacks in the Red Sea was increasing.
🔶️ He said at a defense conference that efforts to take out hostile #drones exceed $100,000 per shot.
🔶️ Even the #Yemeni group had mocked its American adversary, saying #Washington is launching $2 million defense missiles to stop $2,000 Houthi drones.
🔶️ Because of this, the US #military is being urged to find alternative counter-attack solutions that only cost tens of thousands of dollars per shot.

Israel's foreign minister says 'we are very close' to 'changing the rules of the game' and that in a 'total war' Hezbollah will 'be destroyed' and Lebanon will 'be hit hard'
Dude, you can't destroy tiny Hamas while having them surrounded from land air and sea, how the hell are you going to deal with Hezbollah who is significantly stronger, better armed and already kicked your aaa twice in the past?
Israel is up for a rude awakening of they are stupid enough to invade Lebanon. Unless US and UK come to their rescue, they face casualties and losses like never before.
Of course they can destroyed Lebanon, because the country is unable to buy air defense or having an airforce, but on the ground, war weary demoralized Israeli military can't win against a group who has been training for this since the last invasion and have already destroyed many of multi million dollar radar and air defense systems of Israel.
I don't want to see a war breaking out between these 2 and have no love for Hezbollah or their allies. But as a defence force, they have all the rights to stand up and fight back agains this out of control rogue nation of mad men.

UK children shorter, fatter and sicker amid poor diet and poverty, report finds
Children across the UK are getting shorter, fatter and sicker amid an #epidemic of poor diets, food insecurity and poverty, according to a report warning that millions are facing a “timebomb” of avoidable health conditions.
The average height of five-year-olds is falling, obesity levels have increased by almost a third and the number of young people being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes has risen by more than a fifth, the report by the Food Foundation said.
Aggressive marketing of cheap ultra-processed food, diets lacking essential nutrition and high levels of poverty and deprivation are driving the “significant decline” in children’s health, researchers found.

"So Le Petit Roi in Paris was predictably crushed in the European polls. He has called parliamentary snap elections, dissolving the Assemblée Nationale in an act of blind, puerile revenge on French citizens, de facto attacking French institutional democracy.
That doesn’t mean much anyway, because the lineaments of “liberty, equality, fraternity” have long been usurped by a crass oligarchy.
The second round of these fresh French elections will be on July 7 – nearly coinciding with the British snap elections on July 11, and only a few days before the slow-burning urban catastrophe which will be the Olympics in Paris.
Paris salons are ablaze with intrigue on why the little Rothschild stooge with a Napoleon complex is throwing all his toys out of the pram now because he’s not getting what he wants.
After all what he really craves is to become a “War President” – together with the Cadaver in the White House, Starmer in the UK, Rutte in the Netherlands, the Toxic Medusa von der Lugen in Brussels, Tusk in Poland, without having to answer to the French people."
