The BBC always emphasise Israeli government's denial of killing journalists - particularly galling, having witnessed BBC representatives attempting to water down statements calling for killing of journalists in Gaza to stop.

UN say 248 journalists killed in Gaza.

Absolutely disgusted listening to Stephen Jardine on BBC Scotland trot out BBC twosidisms, ending every allegation of #Genocide in Gaza with 'Israel denies it has committed Genocide" and 'the UK Government does not call it Genocide' ignoring that UK is legally required to act in case of Genocide.

This morning I have written to the Cabinet Secretary for Justice @angelaconstance.bsky.social MSP to register our concern over plans by the Home Secretary to provide new protest policing powers to police forces in England and Wales and to ascertain if the CabSec intends to mirror this in Scots law.

"But violence in a different state and the mere potential for future escalation do not provide a colorable basis to invoke Section 12406(3)."
In support of their opposition, Defendants also rely on occurrences of violence elsewhere in the country and the risk that peaceful protests in Portland might escalate into violence “at any moment.” Resp., ECF 35 at 13. But violence in a different state and the mere potential for future escalation do not provide a colorable basis to invoke Section 12406(3). To accept Defendants’ arguments would be to render meaningless the extraordinary requirements of 10 U.S.C. § 12406 by allowing the President to federalize one state’s National Guard based on events in a different state or mere speculation about future events. In other words, violence elsewhere cannot support troop deployments here, and concern about hypothetical future conduct does not demonstrate a present inability to execute the laws using nonmilitary federal law enforcement.

NEW: Judge Immergut BLOCKS Trump's federalization of the Oregon National Guard, writing that the govt has "made a range of arguments that, if accepted, risk blurring the line between civil and military federal power—to the detriment of this nation." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
CONCLUSION For the above reasons, this Court GRANTS Plaintiffs' Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, ECF 6, and temporarily enjoins Defendants' September 28, 2025, Memorandum ordering the federalization and deployment of Oregon National Guard service members to Portland. The TRO expires in fourteen days on October 18, 2025, and the parties are ORDERED to comply with the attached TRO. The Defendants' request to stay or administratively stay the Temporary Restraining Order, see Defendants' Opposition to Plaintiffs' Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, ECF 35 at 41, is DENIED. IT IS SO ORDERED DATED this 4th day of October, 2025 at 3:40 p.m. pacific daylight time. /s/ Karin J. Immergut Karin J. Immergut United States District Judge

The Russian drones operations reveal two things that Europeans seem unable to admit to themselves. The first is that they are unwilling/incapable of stopping these operations and seem helpless to keep them from multiplying. The second is that the US government doesnt care and will not help Europe.
