Israel has closed the crossings into Gaza, preventing the entry of food and water. Frankly, the situation is extremely difficult, and I fear that famine will return and we will die of hunger again.πŸ’”

I hope you can help by donating to buy food before it runs out in the markets.😭

Gandalf: β€œAlways after a defeat and a respite, the Shadow takes another shape and grows again”

'I wish it need not have happened in my time,' said Frodo. 'So do I, said Gandalf, 'and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

We don't need to take foreign policy advice from the American President. The last time we did that it was called the Iraq War.

Last time I ask: please watch this deepdive. It’s 19 min only.

There, you’ll learn about what to expect next, about the situation with the Strait of Hormuz, how this connects to China and how this differs from Venezuela scenario.

Take it from those who actually know:
President Trump: "Monumental Damage was done to all Nuclear sites in Iran, as shown by satellite images. Obliteration is an accurate term! The white structure shown is deeply imbedded into the rock, with even its roof well below ground level, and completely shielded from flame. The biggest damage took place far below ground level. Bullseye!!!"

Bullseye!!!"

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth: "Based on everything we have seen - and I've seen it all - our bombing campaign obliterated Iran's ability to create nuclear weapons. Our massive bombs hit exactly the right spot at each target and worked perfectly. The impact of those bombs is buried under a mountain of rubble in Iran; so anyone who says the bombs were not devastating is just trying to undermine the President and the successful mission."
Secretary Hegseth: "Given the 30,000 pounds of explosions and the capability of those munitions, it was DEVASTATION underneath Fordow
... Any assessment that tells you otherwise is speculating with other motives."

Secretary Rubio: "Everything underneath that mountain is in bad shape ... There's no way Iran comes to the table if somehow nothing had happened. This was complete and total obliteration.
They are in bad shape. They are way behind today compared to where they were just seven days ago because of what President Trump did."

Nine months ago, Trump, Hegseth, Rubio and others were crowing about β€œobliterating” Iranian nuclear sites.

They also said that anyone claiming something different was spreading β€œfake news”.

U.S. launches 'major combat operations' in Iran, Trump says On Saturday Donald Trump announced the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran with strikes designed to prevent nuclear weapons and help Iranians.

A reminder of what some of these asylum policies are:

- giving refugees only 2.5 years of leave, meaning the Home Office has to review their status every 30 months
- quadrupling the time to settlement from 5 years to 20 years
- no automatic way to be reunited with close family members
