Strom-Terror in Berlin: Kannste dir nicht ausdenken!
Als total dubios empfinde ich die (angebliche) Täterschaft einer sich „links“ nennenden Terror-Gruppe. Dazu kommt die Übernahme dieser fragwürdigen Charakterisierung des Terrors gegen Bürger als „links“ durch Medien und Politik. Der total abzulehnende Anschlag gegen tausende einfache Bürger kann selbst nach den massiven Umdeutungen des Wortsinns von „Links“ und „Rechts“ in den letzten Jahren in keiner Weise als „Links“ bezeichnet werden. Dieses Urteil trifft auch auf vorherige, angeblich durch die dubiose „Vulkan Gruppe“ verübte Anschläge zu. Mehr zur Rechts-Links-Verwirrung findet sich hier oder hier oder hier oder hier oder hier.
Wer Handlungen wie den Strom-Terror dennoch als „Links“ qualifiziert (wie die Gruppe selber oder viele Journalisten und Politiker), der führt die Bürger in die Irre und möchte den Ruf tatsächlich linker Inhalte (etwa das Streiten für soziale Gerechtigkeit) schwer beschädigen.

Israel, Russia, and the United States Are Testing the Boundaries of Global Order
(September 12, 2025)
As I’ve discussed at length recently, we have already witnessed the death of the global trading system as we have known it. But this slide away from the rules-based system isn’t limited to trade. It is evident in the use of military force as well.
Three examples of unilateral military action over the past couple weeks are particularly instructive:
(…)
That is the real Hobbesian peril. Each of these actions can be seen as an isolated instance, but if one or two or three countries take kinetic action unilaterally, it risks creating a permission structure where others feel there are no guardrails to constrain them.
US Bombed Seven Countries in 2025 as Trump Dramatically Expanded Airstrikes
According to a report from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data (ACLED) released earlier this year, Trump launched nearly as many airstrikes in just his first five months in office as President Biden did during his entire four-year term.
If Trump’s claims of a Christmas Eve attack on Venezuela and reports that it was a CIA drone strike are true, the US has bombed seven countries this year, on top of the airstrikes targeting alleged drug boats in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific Ocean.

US President Donald Trump’s Middle East chief at the National Security Council, Eric Trager, rebuffed Israeli and northeast Syrian officials in the last several weeks, saying that the US is transitioning from a “military to political role” in northeast Syria and that the drawdown of US troops would continue, the sources told MEE, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive discussions.

The “Yellow Line”: Approximately 58 percent of the Gaza Strip is still under direct Israeli control
(November 4, 2025)
The so-called “Yellow Line” refers to the demarcation of the deployment line to where Israeli forces withdrew in the Gaza Strip in accordance with the ceasefire agreement signed on October 9.

UNRWA Commissioner-General on occupied West Bank: Israeli Authorities Forcibly Enter UN Premises in East Jerusalem
Israel is party to the Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the UN. The Convention makes UN premises inviolable – in other words, immune from search and/or seizure – and makes UN property and assets immune from legal process.
The International Court of Justice has also underscored that Israel is obliged to cooperate with UNRWA and other UN agencies.
There can be no exceptions. To allow this represents a new challenge to international law, one that creates a dangerous precedent anywhere else the UN is present across the world.

Touring the Strip, IDF chief Zamir says Gaza ceasefire line ‘a new border’
(today)
“We will not allow Hamas to reestablish itself. We control large parts of the Gaza Strip and stand along [strategic] lines.

European diplomats say Israel veto on Palestinian Authority role stalls Gaza stabilization force

“Sometimes we wonder whether the Americans stationed at the headquarters are the Americans who make the decisions,” the diplomats said. “Everyone tells us we need to speak with whoever decides and whoever speaks with the Oval Office at the White House, not with Gen. Patrick Frank, who heads the American headquarters.”
