Iran has vowed to retaliate after it accused Israel of bombing its embassy complex in Syria on Monday, in a deadly escalation of regional tensions over the war in Gaza that once again appeared to raise the risk of a wider Middle Eastern conflict.

– The definition of a World War, via Britannica, is simply ‘a war involving many nations of the world’
Many eyes are on the Middle East right now, but the Russia/Ukraine war is the one most likely to be the war that is going to get America nuked, in the long run.
While we continue to see headlines predicting a world war is on the horizon, I stand by my assertion that World War III already began and is ongoing. Nether NATO nor the United Nations existed before 1945. The League of Nations became the United Nations, but when created, the Soviet Union was one of the four world powers, along with the UK, The U.S. and China, that was supposed to control the UN, until the Soviet Union vetoed certain cold war issues.

Investors’ curiosity has peaked as central banks are increasing their gold purchases. We are not going back to a Bretton Woods type situation and that is not the issue. You must understand that gold is neutral. Central banks are buying gold because the Neocons have weaponized the dollar.
Russia was removed from the SWIFT system, and private citizens’ assets were confiscated. When Russian assets were removed from SWIFT, a threat to the world was issued to say, “Hey, if you don’t do what we tell you to do, we will take you out of SWIFT.”

Iran’s consulate in the Syrian capital Damascus was flattened on Monday in what Syrian and Iranian media described as an Israeli air strike, a startling apparent escalation of conflict in the Middle East that would pit Israel against Iran and its allies.
Right now, Israel is fighting wars on 3 fronts, all of them deadly serious. First, Israel is knee-deep in a battle with Hamas in Gaza that been going on for months now, and is about to escalate when the IDF moves into Rafah. Second, Israel has near-daily skirmishes with Hezbollah in Lebanon that grow more intense all the time. Lastly, Israel has been defending against Iranian terror attacks through proxies for many years now, and today it just drastically escalated.
from The Epoch Times:
It was a routine Pentagon announcement during a regular briefing the Friday before the president typically submits his annual defense budget request to Congress on the second Monday in March.
As of October, a spokesman for the Department of Defense’s (DOD) F-35 Joint Program Office told Pentagon beat writers, that “certain” Air Force F-35As have been operationally certified to carry the B61-12 thermonuclear gravity bomb.

The head of Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service called the strike an “ugly and criminal step” by Israel
The head of Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), Sergey Naryshkin, has described Monday’s airstrike on the Iranian Consulate in the Syrian capital as a terrorist attack committed by the Israeli government.
Speaking to reporters after a meeting with his Belarusian counterparts on Tuesday, the spy chief condemned the strike, which reportedly killed several Iranian diplomats as well as seven officers of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), including two generals – Mohammad Reza Zahedi and Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi.
#Israel's strike in #Damascus today is a huge development & a major escalation.
3 #IRGC-QF Generals:
– Brig. Gen. Mohammed Zahedi (Commander, #Syria & #Lebanon)
– Gen. Hossein Aminullah (Chief of General Staff, #Syria & #Lebanon)
– Maj. Gen. Haj Rahimi (Commander, Palestine) pic.twitter.com/IiEWDYcPQk— Charles Lister (@Charles_Lister) April 1, 2024

This author recalled in 2021, here at Breitbart News, the 1983 suicide truck bombing of the Marine barracks in Beirut, Lebanon, that left 241 American servicemen dead. That disaster brought a quick end to the U.S. mission in Lebanon, which was “peacekeeping” in a war zone. If that doesn’t sound like such a good idea, that’s because it wasn’t. In the wake of the disaster, I wrote, “Uncle Sam had learned a lesson about the dangers of misbegotten missions in the Middle East—at least for a little while.”

A complaint filed by lawmakers last week was deemed credible enough for a formal inquiry
The Russian Investigative Committee has launched a probe into allegations that Ukraine and its Western backers are involved in terrorist activities on Russian soil; these were supported by some MPs and public figures last week.
The law enforcement body announced on Monday that it was moving forward with the procedural investigation after reviewing the claims. The initial complaint, which the Committee confirmed receiving last Wednesday, identified the US and its allies as allegedly driving a string of attacks on Russian soil. The agency is looking into the purported “organization, financing and conduct of terrorist acts” by those nations.

The United Nations is probing whether Israel is committing genocide. The US President pleads with it to stop killing civilians – to no avail. And despite its evident bias, the news media is day after day full of horrific tales of death and destruction in Gaza.
Surely any government would draw back at this point – from what is by any measure a completely futile and pointless campaign. What use is it to Israel to pile-up another ten thousand bodies of women and children?
from Great Game India:
According to the state-run TASS, the Pacific Fleet of the Russian Navy has confirmed that Russian warships have entered the Red Sea following isolated incidents of some Chinese and Russian vessels being attacked by Houthis.
The Pacific Fleet of the Russian Navy has acknowledged that it dispatched a number of its warships via the Bab al-Mandab Strait and into the Red Sea while Houthi strikes against international shipping are still going on and the US-led military coalition is still patrolling the waterways.
