(December 14, 2025)

The account, provided by eyewitness Shmulik Scuri, has intensified scrutiny of the New South Wales Police tactics during the attack, which has been declared a terrorist incident that left at least 12 people dead and 29 injured.

(…)

Mr Scuri, who was with his family, told reporters that for ‘20 minutes‘ shooters continued to fire while approximately four police officers stood by without returning fire. He said one suspect reloaded openly, uninterrupted, and that officers did not engage.

‚Nobody gave fire back. Nothing. Like they froze,‘ he said. ‚I don‘t understand why.‘

Bundesregierung zu Welle von Kontokündigungen bei Regierungskritikern: „Wir sind ein freies Land“

Am 9. Dezember hat die DKP bekanntgegeben, dass ihr die GLS-Bank ohne weitere Begründung alle Konten gekündigt hat. Kurz vor der Kündigung hatte die Bank bei der DKP mit dem Verweis „dringend“ Informationen zu einer Spendenaktion für Kuba eingefordert. Zuvor waren dieses Jahr bereits die Konten zahlreicher regierungskritischer Journalisten wie z.B. Gaby Weber, Aya Velázquez und Flavio von Witzleben sowie von Verlagen (Mehring Verlag) und Radiostationen (Kontrafunk) aufgekündigt worden. Die NachDenkSeiten wollten vor diesem Hintergrund wissen, ob die Bundesregierung ausschließen kann, dass einzelne Ministerien Druck auf die entsprechenden Banken ausgeübt haben, und wie Kanzler Merz grundsätzlich die zunehmende Tendenz zum „Debanking“ von regierungskritischen Stimmen in Deutschland bewertet.

IDF probing reservists who allegedly beat Palestinian teen, causing ‘disturbing’ injuries

(December 6, 2025)

A military source claimed that Hamam was suffering from a mental illness.

Soldiers of the IDF’s so-called area defense forces, known by its Hebrew acronym Hagmar — made up of local settlers in reserve duty — who were already in the area, alongside Sde Ephraim’s security coordinator, called on the man to leave, the army said.

According to the military, the reservist soldiers fired in the air, but the suspect continued to approach them. “The reserve soldiers struggled with the suspect physically until they were able to arrest him,” the IDF said.

Ukraine war latest live: Russian offensive near Zaporizhzhia Oblast‘s Huliaipole repelled as troops spotted on city outskirts

Russian troops captured a Ukrainian servicemember during an assault on positions near the village of Hnativka in the Pokrovsk district earlier in November 2025, according to prosecutors.

One Russian soldier reportedly tied the prisoner‘s hands while another struck him several times in the head with an automatic weapon. When the captive stopped responding, the soldiers shot him.

The intentional killing of a prisoner of war is a breach of the Geneva Conventions and constitutes a serious war crime.

Amid chaotic Ukrainian withdrawal, Russian forces reportedly execute 5 POWs in Zaporizhzhia Oblast

At least five Ukrainian prisoners of war (POWs) were executed by Russian soldiers amid a chaotic withdrawal near Huliaipole, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, it was reported on Nov. 27.

According to analytical organisation DeepState, Ukrainian soldiers were taken captive and shot dead on Nov. 26 near Zelenyi Hai village, in the Huliaipole sector.

„The enemy captured the soldiers in the forest, lined them up, and shot them after interrogation,“ DeepState said on Telegram.

Speaking to Interfax-Ukraine on Nov. 27, Spokesperson of the Southern Defense Forces Vladyslav Voloshyn acknowledged that Ukrainian forces had withdrawn from positions in the area, but one unit „withdrew from the occupied positions in an uncoordinated manner.“

„Thus, it exposed one of the flanks of our operational structure in this area and the personnel of the adjacent unit found themselves without cover,“ he said.

Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, November 19, 2025

(November 19, 2025)

Key Takeaways

Russia killed at least 26 Ukrainian civilians and injured at least 139 on the night of November 18 to 19 during its combined missile and drone strikes that disproportionately impacted civilian areas.
US and Russian officials reportedly drafted a 28-point peace plan that amounts to Ukraine’s full capitulation and would set conditions for renewed Russian aggression against Ukraine.
The reported proposed peace plan would deprive Ukraine of critical defensive positions and capabilities necessary to defend against future Russian aggression, apparently in exchange for nothing.
This reported peace plan is fundamentally the same as Russia’s 2022 Istanbul demands, which Russia presented to Ukraine when the circumstances on the battlefield appeared to favor Russia more heavily.
Russia’s long-held demands are dependent on the false premise that a Russian battlefield victory is inevitable.
Ukraine’s interdiction efforts are preventing Russian forces from using vehicles and concentrating manpower in Pokrovsk and are likely slowing down Russia’s rate of advance within the town.
Russian forces recently advanced near Borova and Hulyaipole.

U.S.-Russian Peace Plan Would Force Ukraine to Cede Land and Cut Army

(November 19, 2025)

A plan to end the war in Ukraine, negotiated between the Trump administration and Russia, would require Kyiv to surrender territory, significantly reduce the size of its army and relinquish some types of weaponry, according to officials familiar with the proposal.

The 28-point proposal, drafted without Ukrainian involvement, reflects the maximalist demands the Kremlin has made throughout the war, which Ukraine has long denounced as amounting to capitulation.

Der ukrainische Korruptionsskandal als Inszenierung – Selenskyj soll stürzen

Dass die Korruptionsvorwürfe jetzt erhoben werden, deutet auf ein fein abgestimmtes Timing. Der Druck auf Selenskyj soll erhöht werden.

Inzwischen tauchen Gerüchte auf, dass Selenskyj territorialen Abtretungen an Russland unter der Bedingung zugestimmt haben soll, dass ihm persönliche Immunität und Schutz zugesichert wird. Die Ankündigung der Ermittlungsbehörde NABU, noch weitere spannende Enthüllungen auf Lager zu haben, scheint seine Wirkung auf den inneren Machtzirkel Kiews zu entfalten.

Die Korruptionsgeschichte entpuppt sich immer deutlicher als Inszenierung. Bitte nicht falsch verstehen: Natürlich ist die Ukraine bis in die politischen Eliten hinein hoch korrupt. Daran besteht kein Zweifel. Nur scheint man in den USA die Entscheidung getroffen haben, Kiew genau jetzt über den seit langem ausgelegten Fallstrick stolpern zu lassen.

Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down rules to prevent and combat child sexual abuse

I. BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION

1. On 11 May 2022, the Commission submitted to the Council and the European Parliament a proposal for a Regulation laying down rules to prevent and combat child sexual abuse 1 , which aims to oblige online service providers, such as providers of hosting services and interpersonal communications services, to prevent the dissemination of, to detect, report and remove child sexual abuse material (‘CSAM’), to prevent, detect and report the solicitation of children (‘grooming’), and to set up a new decentralised EU agency (the ‘EU Centre’) to support the implementation of the proposed Regulation, together with a network of national Coordinating Authorities and other competent authorities.

(…)

II. MAIN ELEMENTS OF THE PRESIDENCY COMPROMISE TEXT
(…)
f) EU Centre to prevent and combat child sexual abuse (Articles 40-82, Recitals 58-74a):

The EU Centre keeps its core functions by assessing, processing and forwarding reports from the providers, advising and otherwise supporting national authorities, facilitating the cooperation with stakeholders and establishing the databases of indicators to support the voluntary activities of providers using the derogation under Regulation (EU) 2021/1232 and the issuance of blocking and delisting orders.

The tasks of the EU Centre are expanded to assist more strongly in the risk assessment and mitigation process, and to develop or facilitate the development of technologies;

– The strengthening of aspects of prevention is introduced, including the preparation of dedicated national strategies by the Member States and a comprehensive communication and outreach strategy by the EU Centre;

– Clarifications about the cooperation between the EU Centre and Europol are
included;

– The possibility for the cooperation of the EU Centre with other EU agencies and bodies, third countries and international organisations is introduced;

– The Executive Board should not be established. Its tasks are conferred on the Management Board of the EU Centre;

(i) ) Entry into force and application (Article 89, Recital 78a)

– The Presidency text foresees that this Regulation will apply 24 months after its entry into force, some provisions related to reporting, the EU Centre, data collection and transparency reporting after 48 months and the amendment to Regulation (EU) 2021/1232 immediately.

EU Intelligence Network: ENFOPOL

(January 2010)

ENFOPOL (Enforcement Police) is a European electronic intelligence network, which is able to fully track and monitor all types of electronic communicaƟons. Police have connected the EU states and it is organized aŌer the ECHELON (Electronic Surveillance OperaƟon) – the U.S. intelligence network, which includes: Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Great Britain. European police cooperaƟon on this basis has been established in the form of working groups –
the police-squad experts, gathered from all EU countries, primarily in the field of the fight against cyber-crime. These experts have determined the legal way to promote, attain and improve the fight against contemporary forms of security threats, terrorism, organized crime, and the like.

IntroducƟon

Modern electronic devices have not only become a matter of prestige, but also a pressing need, for both state and non-state organizations. Some experts and scholars view them as a product of a “complex interdependence”, while others deem that they have been created as a result of electronic revolution and therefore have to be an integral part of life. Notwithstanding the above, many criminal and terrorist organizations see the inventions related to electronics as an opportune tool for their activities and as a way to get rich.

What evidence supports the claim that Jeffrey Epstein worked for Mossad?

4. Where the Evidence Is Strongest — Access, Not Agency

The most robust, verifiable element in the public record is Epstein’s access to Israeli elites and documented interactions with Israeli figures. Email exchanges, travel logs, and eyewitness reporting establish clear lines of contact and hospitality: meetings, invitations, and visits that show Epstein operated comfortably within Israeli political and commercial circles. Reporting also documents at least one intelligence‑linked individual reportedly staying at Epstein’s properties, which is a factual basis for speculation about intelligence interest but not proof of operational employment. Analysts stress the difference between being a useful network node and being a paid or directed intelligence operative.

What Epstein‘s emails reveal about the rich and famous who sought his advice

There was virtually never a stated reason why all of these bigwigs – mostly men but also women – assumed Epstein would be able to provide insight into whatever was on their minds.

Epstein had no college degree; his first job was as a math and physics teacher at the elite Dalton School in Manhattan.

Despite that unconventional start, and with no transparent or easily explainable path to riches, Epstein emerged as a globe-trotting fixer who spent his time shuttling between luxury homes, private jets and his Caribbean island.

Als das Bundesverfassungsgericht Deutschland zur elektronischen Kolonie erklärte

(Juni 15, 2017)

Mit seinen Beschlüssen 2 BvE 5/15 (verkündet am 14.10.2016, aber schon vom 20.09.2016) und 2 BvE 2/15 (verkündet am 15.11.2016, aber schon vom 13.10.2016) gab das Bundesverfassungsgericht das unauffällige Startsignal für den Beschluss des neuen B.N.D.-Gesetzes am 21.10.2016 im Bundestag.

Die Absegnung des B.N.D.-Gesetzes durch ihre Über-Dreiviertel-Mehrheit im Parlament, gegen die es laut Karlsruhe nun keine Opposition mehr im Sinne von Artikel 44 des Grundgesetzes gab, hatte die Regierung bis zu den Freifahrtscheinen der Verfassungsrichter taktisch verzögert.

Am 12. Dezember 1970 hatte das „Abhörteil“ (BVerfGE 30, 1) vom Verfassungsgericht Westdeutschlands die Aufhebung der Gewaltenteilung beim Brief-, Post- und Fernmeldegeheimnis durch die Verfassungsänderungen der „Notstandsgesetze“ als verfassungsgemäß beurteilt. Das damalige Urteil war gegen schwerste Bedenken und vorausschauende Warnungen der Verfassungsrichter Geller, Dr. v.Schlabrendorff und Dr. Rupp mit 5 zu 3 Stimmen entschieden worden.

Im Jahre 2016 nun übertrugen Andreas Voßkuhle, Peter M. Huber, Monika Hermanns, Sibylle Kessal-Wulf, Peter Müller, Doris König und Ulrich Maidowski die Machtfülle der in 1968 unter Besatzungsrecht geschaffenen „Notstandsgesetze“ der damaligen „großen Koalition“ auf deren heutige Nachfolger.

Und in Deutschland, wie es heute ist, eskalierten die Verfassungsrichter selbst die damalige antidemokratische und antiparlamentarische Auslegung des Grundgesetzes ein weiteres Mal.

Die durch die Verfassungsänderungen der „Notstandsgesetze“ und das nachfolgende erste Artikel 10-Gesetz vom 13. August 1968 geschaffene G 10-Kommission, als einziges parlamentarisches Gremium bevollmächtigt Inlandsspionage der Behörden zu verbieten, hatte dies siebenundvierzig Jahre effektiv nicht getan und lediglich als Feigenblatt der Regierungsmacht gedient.

Als die G 10-Kommission schließlich Mitte 2015 zum ersten Mal in ihrer Geschichte gegen die Regierung revoltierte und Einblick in die sogenannte „N.S.A.-Selektorenliste“ verlangte – eine Liste mit Spionagezielen, die der Bundesnachrichtendienst abgelehnt hatte, nicht etwa einer Liste mit tatsächlich anvisierten Zielen – verweigerte die Regierung selbst diesem Gremium die Einsichtnahme. Als die G 10-Kommission dann im Dezember 2015 endlich Verfassungsklage einreichte, stellte sie keinen Eilantrag.

Am 14. Oktober 2016 weigerte sich dann das Bundesverfassungsgericht im (wie erwähnt bereits am 20. September 2016 getroffenen) Beschluss 2 BvE 5/15, die Verfassungsklage der G 10-Kommission auch nur anzunehmen.

Begründung der Karlsruher Richter: Ihrer Interpretation des Grundgesetzes nach, sei die vom Parlamentarischen Kontrollgremium des Bundestages gewählte G 10-Kommission kein „Hilfsorgan“ (Wortlaut Artikel 10 Grundgesetz) des Bundestages, weil sie in dessen Geschäftsordnung (!) nicht „mit eigenen Rechten ausgestattet“ sei.

Abseits dieser bizarr anmutenden Begründung hatte das Urteil einen verheerenden, tatsächlichen Kern: eben den Bezug auf die Legitimierung der „Notstandsgesetze“ Westdeutschlands durch das „Abhörurteil“ BVerfGE 30, 1, von 1970. In einem in der Tat historischen Schritt bestätigten die Verfassungsrichter nicht nur die seitdem als verfassungsgemäß geltende selektive Außerkraftsetzung der Gewaltenteilung, sondern vollzogen in deren letzter Konsequenz selbst die Erniedrigung der parlamentarischen G 10-Kommission und entblößten diese als Placebo, als jahrzehntelanges, lediglich im Falle von Folgsamkeit geduldetes Feigenblatt exekutiver Willkürmacht.

The Trial of Galileo: An Account

The trial by the Congregation moved to its conclusion. Several of the ten cardinals apparently pushed for Galileo‘s incarceration in prison, while those more supportive of Galileo argued that–with changes–the Dialogue ought to continue to be allowed to circulate. In the end, a majority of the cardinals–rejecting much of the Commissary‘s agreement with Galileo–demanded Galileo „even with the threat of torture…abjure in a plenary assembly of the Congregation of the Holy Office…[and] then be condemned to imprisonment at the pleasure of the Holy Congregation.“ Moreover, the cardinals declared, the Dialogue „is to be prohibited.“

The grand play ran its course, with the Pope insisting upon a formal sentence, a tough examination of Galileo, public abjuration, and „formal prison.“ Galileo was forced to appear once again for formal questioning about his true feelings concerning the Copernican system. Galileo obliged, so as not to risk being branded a heretic, testifying that „I held, as I still hold, as most true and indisputable, the opinion of Ptolemy, that is to say, the stability of the Earth and the motion of the Sun.“ Galileo‘s renunciation of Copernicanism ended with the words, „I affirm, therefore, on my conscience, that I do not now hold the condemned opinion and have not held it since the decision of authorities….I am here in your hands–do with me what you please.“

Modi Vows Justice as Police Suspect Terrorism in Deadly New Delhi Blast

India frequently accuses Pakistan of being behind attacks on its soil, saying that they are orchestrated by groups operating from sanctuaries across the border. A deadly terrorist attack this spring that killed 26 people in the Indian-administered region of Kashmir led to days of military conflict between the nuclear-armed neighbors.

At the time, Mr. Modi’s government issued a warning that it would treat any future terrorist attack on its soil as an “act of war.”
