Arab mobs set synagogues on fire and torch cars in Israel’s Lod

Rioting by Arab broke out in the central Israeli city of Lod late Tuesday, with three synagogues and numerous shops reportedly set on fire. Homes were targeted and dozens of cars were set alight, reports Times of Israel. The government has declared a state of emergency in the city which has a mixed population of Jews and Arabs. Jewish residents reported that power was cut in their homes and petrol bombs were thrown through their windows as Arab mobs marauded in the streets.

Chinese Military Scientists Discussed Man-Made Coronavirus Attack Years Before COVID-19 Pandemic

Chinese military scientists in 2015 detailed a plot to unleash a bioengineered SARS coronavirus to cause mass terror and advance the communist regime’s global political ambitions, reports Epoch Times. These newly uncovered revelations come amid intensifying scrutiny over the possibility that the COVID-19 pandemic originated from a laboratory leak in Wuhan, an institute that has collaborated with the Chinese military. The reports states that Chinese military scientists’ theories were detailed in a 2015 book, first reported recently by News Corp’s The Australian. The scientists advocated for the weaponization of pathogens, including SARS coronaviruses, to “cause terror and gain political and strategic advantage” over an enemy state. The SARS epidemic from 2002 to 2003 infected...

Retired French Generals Warn of Civil War Due to ‘Creeping Islamism’

A group of retired French generals have warned in an open letter that France is sliding toward a civil war due to the government's failure to control mass migration and creeping Islamism in the country. The letter also warns against cultural Marxism, runaway multi-culturalism and the expansion of no-go zones in France. The letter also comes after widespread public indignation over a French justice system which accuses it of being compromised by political correctness. The indignation comes after the top French court refused to prosecute an African immigrant from Mali who, while shouting "Allahu Akbar" ("Allah is the Greatest"), killed an elderly Jewish woman by breaking into her home and pushing her off her balcony. The ruling sparked mass protests in Paris and other French citie...

(Photo by Kevin Frayer/Getty Images) Using the global emissions data through 2019, the Rhodium Group has estimated that in 2019 China’s annual Greenhouse gas emissions exceeded those of all developed countries combined. Each year Rhodium Group provides the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions estimates at global and country-level through the ClimateDeck. China’s emissions were less than a quarter of developed country emissions in 1990, but over the past three decades have more than tripled, reaching over 14 gigatons of CO2-equivalent in 2019 says the research published on May 6, 2021. Rhodium Group's estimates for 2019 shows tha...

Scotland election results could decide if United Kingdom will break-up or stay ‘United’

China-Australia ties hit a new low: China suspends high-level economic dialogue with Australia indefinitely

China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) said all activities under the China-Australia Strategic Economic Dialogue had been ‘indefinitely suspended’. The decision is based ‘on the current attitude of the Australian Commonwealth government toward China-Australia cooperation’, it said. “Recently, some Australian Commonwealth government officials launched a series of measures to disrupt the normal exchanges and cooperation between China and Australia out of cold war mindset and ideological discrimination,” the statement said. China's suspension of the dialogue comes a week after Australian PM took a decision to scrap Victoria’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) agreement with China. The Morrison government’s decision to scrap Victoria’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) ...

Parts of Chinese rocket launched last week could plunge to Earth in few days

The largest section of the Long March 5B rocket that launched the main module of China’s first permanent space station into orbit is expected to plunge back to Earth as early as Saturday at an unknown location. However, China’s Space Agency has not yet commented on the concern expressed by many countries. Basic details about the rocket stage and its trajectory are unknown because the Chinese government has yet to comment publicly on the reentry. The agency has also not revealed if the debris is being controlled or will make an out-of-control descent. The roughly 30-meter (100-foot) -long stage would be among the biggest space debris to fall to Earth. Such discarded cores, or first-stage, of the rockets usually reenter earth's atmosphere soon after liftoff. They normally hover ov...

Classified study by Scientists at a US Laboratory suspects coronavirus could have originated in Wuhan laboratory

A classified study of the origin of SARS-CoV-2 conducted a year ago by scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the Department of Energy’s premier biodefense research institution in US suspects that the novel coronavirus may have originated in a laboratory in China, as per a news report. Researchers at Livermore’s “Z Division,” the lab’s intelligence unit, issued the report classified as “Top Secret” during May last year. The Z Division report assessed that both the lab-origin theory and the zoonotic theory were plausible and warranted further investigation. The existence of the report was unknown thus far but was confirmed by a correspondent of the Sinclair Broadcasting Group who communicated with the research team. In an email to Sinclair, a Livermore spok...
