Longtime Donald Trump supporter Tucker Carlson has broken with the president on some key issues, becoming one of the country's staunchest critics of the US relationship with Israel. Carlson is engaging with voices he once criticised, like The New York Times, and his rising popularity has fueled speculation in Washington, DC that he could try to ride that momentum all the way to the White House.

We, the undersigned, warn that the conduct of the United States and Israel has inflicted irreversible damage on humanity's cultural heritage and, in light of the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict, may give rise to violations of international law.

The conversation reveals that the ongoing conflict raises critical questions about the motivations behind US foreign policy, particularly regarding Israel's role in shaping military strategies.

What America and Israel are doing in their aggression against the countries of the region is not a war of a military nature, but a senseless war, said Dhirgham Samir, a demonstrator in his 40s.

Brent crude, the international benchmark, rose nearly 2 percent on Thursday to top $104 per barrel after Tehran dismissed reports of direct negotiations with US President Donald Trump's administration.

Israel, out of anger for what has taken place in the Middle East, has violently lashed out at a major facility known as South Pars Gas Field in Iran. A relatively small section of the whole has been hit. The United States knew nothing about this particular attack, and the country of Qatar was in no way, shape, or form, involved with it, nor did it have any idea that it was going to happen.

I will tell you that AIPAC may call itself pro-American. They may call themselves pro-Israel, Van Hollen told the J Street crowd. But they are neither. They have been a very destructive influence. And it is time to call them out. And the American people are catching on.

Do not join or remain in the United States Military. Trump has betrayed America and expects you to die for Israel. There is no honor in being led by dishonorable men to your death.

The president ... should give Bibi the pardon today. I don't want anything on Bibi's mind other than fighting against Iran. Tell him I am exposing him. That president better damn well give him the pardon right now - and stop using it as leverage for his own political career.

The U.S. and Israel are carrying out an unprovoked, illegal bombing campaign on Iran. This war serves no one but a tiny elite and oil executives.

Police officials released a statement X announcing that they will enhance security at diplomatic, cultural, religious and other relevant sites. Anyone aware of suspicious activity is urged to call 1-888-NYC-SAFE or 911.

Hamas described the move as a dangerous precedent and a practical recognition of the legitimacy of colonial-settlements and the occupation's control over the West Bank. The Palestine Liberation Organization's Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission said in a statement the decision constitutes a clear violation of international law and a blatant favouring of the occupation authorities.

United States Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has triggered an avalanche of criticism from Arab and Muslim countries after suggesting Israel has a right to expand its territory across a large swath of the Middle East. Huckabee delivered the remarks during a sit-down interview with US commentator Tucker Carlson, broadcast on Friday, as he was pressed about the geographical borders of Israel.

Gangs of armed settlers persecute, harm, wound and even kill Palestinians living there. The rampages include burning olive groves, houses and cars; breaking into homes; and physically assaulting people. He continued, The rioters, the Jewish terrorists, storm Palestinians with hate and violence with one objective: to force them to flee from their homes. All this is done in the hopes that the land will then be prepared for Jewish settlement, en route to realizing the dream of annexing all the territories.

Carlson pointed out that this area in modern geography would include like, basically the entire Middle East. The Levant Israel, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon it'd also be big parts of Saudi Arabia and Iraq, Carlson said. Huckabee said: I'm not sure it would go that far, but it would be a big piece of land. He continued: Israel is a land that God gave, through Abraham, to a people that he chose. It was a people, a place and a purpose.

This month, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's security cabinet, in a closed-door meeting, adopted measures to make it easier for settlers to purchase land and to circumvent the Palestinian Authority in areas it has controlled since a 1995 agreement under the Oslo accords. The move was widely condemned in the Arab world and globally as a violation of international law and an undoing of decades-old regional security agreements.

I said that any agreement must include... not just the nuclear issue, but also the ballistic missiles and the Iranian proxies in the region,

It was a very good meeting, the tremendous relationship between our two Countries continues, Trump said of Israel.

The meeting was originally scheduled for next week, but Netanyahu insisted on moving it up after Trump's envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, met in Oman with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in the first round of talks that both sides have agreed to continue (amid a threatening military buildup in the Middle East), although without specifying a date or location for the next round.
