India Willoughby and JK Rowling's Twitter war

Evening Standard11 hours ago

'Israel is currently wiping out a whole people - aided and abetted by Labour, who are shamefully trying to cover their a***. War crime. I don't feel safe with Netanyahu or Trump having nuclear weapons. I don't believe anything that Israel, US or UK say. Why should I? Because I'm English and should trust the BBC?'

Israel's daring, dazzling, dangerous victory

THERE ARE immutable rules to Middle Eastern wars that not even Donald Trump can change. Once a ceasefire is announced, both sides rush to land one more blow. After the truce starts they sneak in a final volley. For ten hours after the president announced a ceasefire ending the 12-day Iran-Israel war, there were tit-for-tat strikes. By the time he got up on June 24th, Mr Trump had had enough, declaring on the White House lawn, 'they don't know what the fuck they're doing!' He then called Binyamin Netanyahu and read the riot act. Israel's jets turned back.

Report suggests US strikes only set back Iran's nuclear programme by months

The early intelligence report issued by the Defence Intelligence Agency on Monday contradicts statements from Mr Trump and Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the status of Iran's nuclear facilities. According to people familiar with the situation, the report found that while the Saturday strikes at the Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear sites did significant damage, they were not totally destroyed. The White House strongly pushed back on the assessment, calling it 'flat-out wrong'. 'The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump, and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran's nuclear programme,' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement. 'Everyone knows what happens when you drop 14 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.' The CIA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence declined to comment on the DIA assessment. ODNI coordinates the work of the nation's 18 intelligence agencies, including the DIA, which is the intelligence arm of the Defence Department, responsible for producing intelligence on foreign militaries and the capabilities of adversaries. The intelligence assessment was first reported by CNN on Tuesday.

An FBI insider told Fox News agents are 'closely watching' for any 'sleeper agents' in wake of the US strikes on Iran's nuclear weapons facilities. 'DHS has identified and arrested known or suspected terrorists and violent extremists that illegally entered this country, came in through Biden's fraudulent parole programs or otherwise,' ICE tweeted earleir today. 'We have been saying we are getting the worst of the worst out—and we are. We don't wait until a military operation to execute; we proactively deliver on President Trump's mandate to secure the homeland.'
