US Strikes At Least 85 Targets In Iraq & Syria, Including From B1 Bombers
Update(1715ET): Importantly, there have been no reports of US airstrikes in Iran this evening, and US officials say that the Pentagon does not plan to hit targets inside the Islamic Republic. But the strikes on eastern Syria and in western Iraq were large, and targeted IRGC assets and personnel and their affiliates. According to a CENTCOM statement, the initial wave, which started at 4pm US Eastern Time (interestingly, just after markets closed), included over 85 targets, with some of them hit more than once
Biden promises more US airstrikes
The president says military operations will continue “at times and places of our choosing”
President Joe Biden has defended the US response to a recent drone strike that left three American soldiers dead, explaining that the air raids have targeted militia groups in Iraq and Syria allegedly backed by Iran. In a statement issued on Friday, Biden said he personally ordered the Pentagon’s response to last weekend’s deadly drone strike on a Jordanian military base housing US troops.
Forget China, We Can’t Even Beat the Houthis
The US no longer has the capability or credibility to conduct large-scale amphibious operations.
Forget China, the new American way of war isn’t working against Yemen’s Houthis.
Striking missile and killer drone launching sites as well as terrorist headquarters with our own missiles and drones seems like a relatively bloodless way to wage war — at least on the part of the shooter — but it is increasingly ineffective.
American presidents love such approaches. It makes them look decisive without endangering their troops’ lives. However, the world’s bad guys quickly figured out that war from thousands of feet up can be countered.

UN’s Guterres meets with Qatar PM to discuss UNRWA funding, humanitarian pause, hostage deal
The United Nations chief discussed efforts to end Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza, release the hostages and ensure support for humanitarian operations with Qatar’s prime minister, the UN spokesman says.
The meeting between Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani took place as the US, Qatar, Egypt and others are negotiating a possible new humanitarian pause and hostage release – and as 16 countries have suspended funding for the UN agency for Palestinian refugees known as UNRWA over allegations a dozen of its staff participated in Hamas’ Oct. 7 onslaught in southern Israel.
Two US senators demand UN terminate UNRWA commissioner
Rubio said Lazzarini has never taken proactive steps to root out antisemitism from within UNRWA or hold pro-terrorist employees accountable, according to the release.
US Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Susan Collins (R-ME) called for the immediate termination of UNRWA Commissioner Philippe Lazzarini in a letter to UN Secretary General António Guterres, according to a statement from Rubio’s office. Rubio and Collins alleged Lazzarini allowed for Islamic militants and supporters to freely operate in UN assistance programs while holding extremist views against Israel.
Gallant warns Hezbollah that a potential pause in Gaza fighting won’t apply to north
Defense minister says IDF will keep operating against Lebanese terror group until security is restored for northern residents
Defense Minister Yoav Gallant asserted Friday that a potential pause in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza will not apply to the ongoing hostilities with Lebanon’s Hezbollah terror group. “If Hezbollah thinks that when there’s a pause in fighting in the south, we will hold fire against it, it’s sorely mistaken,” Gallant said after meeting troops from the IDF’s Alpine Unit on Mount Hermon, according to a statement from his office.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine have turned into a terrorist organization that intentionally attacks ambulances, Russian President Vladimir Putin said while speaking at the ‘Everything for Victory’ forum in Tula on Friday. He was commenting on attacks carried out by the Ukrainian military on residential areas of Russian cities in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), which have led to a number of civilian casualties.
Ukraine Coerces Mass-Conscripts Unfit for Military Service - PoW
The Ukrainian government introduced a new mobilization bill in the parliament on January 30. Ukrainian media reported that the document obliges people liable for military service to report to military commissariats to clarify their information within 60 days.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces are massively conscripting people who are unfit for military service for health and age reasons, prisoners of war told Sputnik. "Caught in such a time that they gave everyone a military ID. They gave everyone a military ID.... I passed the medical examination right away. I said that I have a metal plate in my arm - and now it is still there. They didn't care," one prisoner, Nazar Vashkevich, said.
Another NATO Country Warns About Potential War With Russia
Romania on Thursday joined the growing list of NATO countries who's had a prominent official warn about the potential of going to war with Russia.
General Gheorghiță Vlad, Romania's chief of defense, said during an interview with Europa Liberă România—a news service from Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty—that his country currently isn't prepared for the prospect of war with Russia and warned it needs to take such a threat seriously.
Hang on! NATO is building an E.U. Army to attack Russia?
NATO is trying to cut the red tape to mobilize a European army by creating what they call a “military Schengen.” In a recent article in The Times, NATO’s European logistics chief Lieutenant-General Alexander Sollfrank is advocating that it apply to military equipment and personnel. That means that NATO could take the reigns of an EU army. Politician Jim Ferguson joins us to discuss.
Britain to test fire a nuclear missile in major show-of-force
The Royal Navy is due to test fire a nuclear weapon within days. Officials issued a warning to shipping as nuclear submarine HMS Vanguard sailed into the Atlantic this week.
It is the first time the UK has test-fired a missile since a botched launch in 2016. And it follows a drumbeat of warnings that the world is careering to World War Three.
Von der Leyen celebrates ‘a great day for Europe’ as farmers trash Brussels
The unelected European Commission head made her priorities crystal clear by praising another cash dump on Ukraine
Agreement! The European Council delivered on our priorities. Supporting Ukraine…. A good day for Europe,” tweeted unelected European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on Thursday, as EU farmers “high-fived” her by throwing eggs, lighting fires and dumping manure in Brussels, where a reported 1,300 tractors had gathered in protest.
Surely it must have been in anticipation of this “great day for Europe” that Brussels rolled out the barbed wire to keep the bloc’s own struggling farmers at bay while its leaders cut yet another check for Ukraine — after threatening the one anticipated holdout with national economic “blackmail,” as Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban qualified it.
Farmers protest in Brussels: Why are leaders pushing to restrict and eliminate farms and farmers?
Massive, ongoing protests in the streets of Germany, Poland, France, the Netherlands, Italy, Portugal, and other European countries descended upon the EU Parliament building in Brussels on Thursday.
The protests coincide with Thursday’s summit of European Union leaders, with the farmers calling on them to scrap agricultural and environmental regulations implemented by leadership in Brussels.

Democrat Governor Sounds Like Republicans: Close The Southern Border Mr. President
Democrats are beginning to sound like Republicans about the need to restore common sense southern border security, recognizing that the large-scale migrant invasion their party (plus taxpayer-funded NGOs) allowed could jeopardize President Biden's re-election prospects in November.
On Friday morning, Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont, a Democrat, joined Bloomberg TV, admitting Democrats were "a little slow" in responding to the border crisis.
What Do Undocumented Migrants, the Border States of Florida and Texas and the Crashing Value of Commercial Real Estate Have to Do With Catastrophic Risk to Your Financial Assets? A Lot…
The mayors of the largest cities are now crying ‘uncle’ as the cities and metropolitan areas of New York, Chicago and more are starting to collapse under the weight of an international confidence game orchestrated by the powers that be. Carried out by Border States and Governors, with a helping hand from the UN (and IOM) they use a lot of US taxpayer dollars (the US funds 28% of the UN budget) to fund the movement of immigrants from one country and even continent, to the US.
Japanese bank tanks over 20% after flagging losses tied to U.S. commercial property
Shares of Aozora Bank tumbled to their lowest level in eight months Thursday after the Japanese bank warned of a fiscal-year net loss due to its exposure to U.S. office loans.
The Tokyo-based commercial lender said it now expects to post a net loss of 28 billion Japanese yen ($191 million) for the fiscal year ending Mar. 31, a swing from its previous forecast for a net profit of 24 billion yen.
37 million at risk for flooding from blockbuster California rainstorm
The second and stronger storm of a one-two punch will blast California with torrential rain, flooding and feet of snow.
Hot on the heels of a drenching storm and a low-end atmospheric river that affected California from Wednesday to Thursday, a more potent storm and high-end atmospheric river will roll ashore Saturday night and Sunday with major impacts that will threaten lives, property and travel into next week, AccuWeather meteorologists continue to warn.
Public awareness and storm readiness are strongly encouraged as life-threatening conditions may evolve in some communities.
A preliminary magnitude 5.1 earthquake strikes east of Oklahoma City
CNN — A preliminary magnitude 5.1 earthquake hit east of Oklahoma City on Friday night and was followed by at least two smaller temblors, according to the US Geological Survey.
The bigger earthquake was recorded at 11:24 p.m. local time about 5 miles northwest of Prague, Oklahoma, and about 42 miles from Oklahoma City, the geological survey said. The small city is home to about 2,000 people. The shaking from that earthquake was felt across a large swath of the state, including in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, according to preliminary reports shared by USGS. Shaking was also felt as far as Wichita, Kansas, according to the geological survey.
You Might Want To Keep An Eye On The Very Alarming Natural Disasters That Are Happening In Hawaii And California
I believe that major natural disasters will be one of the dominant themes of 2024. Right now, a gigantic “Pineapple Express” storm is absolutely pummeling the state of California, and an even stronger “Pineapple Express” storm will hit the state right behind it. But authorities in California will really get bent out of shape if we say that these storms could potentially be part of a catastrophic multi-week pattern that many have suggested may or may not be developing. Meanwhile, the state of Hawaii is being rocked by hundreds and hundreds of earthquakes. In fact, we are being told that there were more than 220 earthquakes in just one 24 hour period earlier this week…
A mysterious cloud moved over North Texas. Was it weather or the military?
Radar technology is useful for detecting meteorological changes and patterns, but earlier this month, weather equipment picked up a more baffling phenomenon in North Texas. On Jan. 20, the National Weather Service (NWS) of Fort Worth reported its radar systems had tracked something unusual in the area. A time-lapsed video clip showed a thinly-shaped blob sweeping over Dallas-Fort Worth, but it wasn't raining. "Wondering what this is? We were too!" a NWS representative posted on X. "Our best guess is chaff."
Bill Gates Wants to Engineer A.I. So We Can End “Polarization” and “Save Democracy”
Microsoft founder Bill Gates recently interviewed OpenAI CEO Sam Altman to discuss the future of AI and the potential for new global controls to maintain peace, safety and democracy around the world. The question is: Whose ideas must the global population submit to in order for there to be world peace? OpenAI and Microsoft are currently working to promote artificial intelligence as a tool for influencing governments around the world and for solving global challenges. Source
The Globalists Want CBDCs In 2024… What Really Comes Next Will Surprise Them
There’s an excellent chance governments worldwide will soon force their citizens to use central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). CBDCs enable all sorts of horrible, totalitarian things.
They allow governments to track and control every penny you earn, save, and spend. They are a powerful tool for politicians to confiscate and redistribute wealth as they see fit. CBDCs will allow central banks to impose deeply negative interest rates, which are just a euphemism for a tax on saving money.
Satanists Lobby for Iowa Law Allowing Them to Target Children in Schools
The Satanic Temple is “happy to engage children” if a bill allowing chaplains in schools passes in Iowa, a minister of the Satanic Temple stated.
Lawmakers in Iowa are considering a bill which would essentially allow school districts to hire or allow chaplains. A state Senate subcommittee passed Senate Study Bill 3092 last week, which is described as an “Act authorizing school districts, charter schools, and innovation zone schools to employ chaplains, or engage volunteer chaplains, to provide services to students.”
The Day of the Prophetic Red Heifer Is Almost Here
Many people today are unaware of the significance of the red heifer in both Judaism and Christianity. This symbol of purification is deeply rooted in Scripture, including in the book of Numbers (Num. 19:2-10) where God instructs Moses and Aaron about the ritual purification involving a red heifer.
That is why the work of American farmer Byron Stinson, an evangelical Christian from Texas, and Rabbi Ytshak Mamo, an official from the Temple Institute in Jerusalem, Israel, is so important.
