A basic search would help you out https://www.euronews.com/2026/01/27/iran-protests-death-toll-could-surpass-more-than-30000-reports-claim and the Iranians are rising again all over the country as they applaud the US and Israeli attacks. Don't know where you get your information while WMDs and cooked babies are a deflection. The far left along with their Jihadist allies have been exposed with their blatant hypocrisy. The attacks on Iran, following last years successes are the best thing to happen in the region for 50 years. Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran been decimated and Syria, Lebanon and now Iranians are the beneficiaries.

Find it fascinating, there's no discussion about the 30,000 Iranians killed in two days, their human rights record, jihadist support for terrorist organisations. Death to America has been their foreign policy for over 40 years. I don't know how some of you folk can blithely ignore all this. Amazing. Oh, but then it is Trump after all.

That would be fine, if folk were accountable for their lifestyle. Western public hospital systems are becoming overloaded with diabetes, knee, hip replacements and other health issues often related to lifestyle choices. Then people groan their government isn't spending enough on health, which is tad ironic, given it is lack of healthy lifestyle options causing increasing public medical spending. Can understand why sensible healthy people are judgemental with lazy fatties at the trough. Unfortunately, it's not just seniors but now many young folk to varying degrees eat crap, glued to computer games rather than join up with their local sports team.

Most pressing concern is the % of people who are now depressed, fed constant doomsday narratives. Especially the kids, and exacerbated by Covid lockdowns. Where is this inane group on that metric? Get rid of horrid Iran regime and clock oughta go back a minute. Vote out soft left wing clowns, like Starmer, another minute. Equality for all, not perceived victims, good grief. Tell people the world ain't gonna end from climate change, two minutes. Cos it ain't despite constant accent on the negatives which can be dreamt up each and every day. Reform the myriad of growing regulations and promote freedom, priceless. Oh and encourage everyone to exercise, eat healthy food, cut the sugars and watch the world smile again.

Typically BBC ignores the other appointees to the Peace Board and covers those who the usual suspects will disparage. Rubio and Blair are both strong on analysis and light on emotion. Good choices but why does BBC ignore the other appointees like Dr. Ali Shaath (former Palestinian Authority deputy minister) and High Representative for Gaza: Nickolay Mladenov (Former UN Middle East envoy). Either ignorant or not wanting to provide balance, it's in their DNA.

Do you have any idea of religious history? I put it to you the religious inhabitants Egypt wouldn't hold a candle to the pre-Islamic peoples of Egypt.

Occupied West Bank, like Israel is the first to occupy. Put another way, when was it ever non-occupied? Name just one time pls bleeding hearts. And they will never get their own state until they learn how to be useful and throw off the shackles of extremism. Howling mob of perennial losers, who've gained the adoration of far left losers in the western world.

In much of the western world also. Certainly climate change alarmism, free immigration, and stifling regulations in many areas are on the nose. Meanwhile Trump, that catalyst for much of this, has to prices down in the US by mid next year in readiness for the mid terms. Voters these days care more about their cost of living than the above areas combined.

US sanctions, like US tariffs are not at all just a Donald thing as some media seem to infer. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/western-sanctions-russia-iran-energy-trade-2025-11-27/

The sooner we ditch these overpaid, often ideological loons with a well developed AI system the better. Disgusting how long people have to wait for "justice" and all the BS, wigs and nth degree crass involved. Challenge will be to implement an AI based process free of left wing bias.

Yeah the old train station with the Royal waiting room, Bintabhat precinct, seafood restaurants over the water & the fishing pier, beaches with headland temples, lit up palace area, and gets even worse with nearby hill top city view park and Khao Takiab lake. And too many Walking Streets. Shocking place.

Unbelievable analysis and didn't realise there was still such deluded media out there. Maybe Tik tok stuff.

Typical response as from a ABC/BBC tragic. Condone biased reporting because others do, right? Two things wrong with this reasoning: 1. If you are truly inquisitive there are myriad of media out there to research, try Al-Monitor for the Middle East which is highly regarded for its objectivity. So many media, you can start with basic search and seek Objectivity, or as close as you can get it these days. But the ABC and BBC gave been shocking over the years and getting worse. 2. Fox is not government funded. People choose to fund it. ABC/BBC have an obligation to society to try harder to be news, not views orientated. They've become left wing propaganda outlets when not covering sports or regional news.

Hundreds of scientists receive grants to forecast the impending death of the GBR. The reef has ignored the doom reports for decades regarding effluent run-off, shipping, global warming and it's always a good laugh when every now and then when the health of the reef is so good, having recuperated from a cycle that has been ongoing for eons, the Save the Reef industry find a way to explain that. Pity few of these scientists visit the reef, easier to sit behind a laptop and crunch out theories and models. Meanwhile GBR tourism is at record levels, 2.34 million in 2025, even while all the schools in the region have these "Reef Guardians" boards outside to inform people they care so much about the deteriorating GBR. Dr Peter Ridd, who's been studying the reef for decades, lives in the area and visits the reef regularly, releases periodic updates. This one from a year ago tells a lot...

You're probably right, so sad. I don't know if Trump has a plan or can much effect. Maybe he tries to reign in their excesses? As a minimum, many more people will have an understanding of their plight. World Bank might have to bail them out, with certain conditions.

Yep, straight out of the Hamas playbook to a tired, old media outlet wallowing in their left wing delusions.

No, be unwise for Trump and the US, so I don't there will be an invasion. Perhaps the military of Venezuela can grow some and do the country a huge favour. Hard to see how they couldn't improve immeasurably over the current despot.

Love seeing how left/centre media can't help themselves with rise Maduro, a dictator disaster for Venezuala. Causing so much distress that people try to leave in droves. This is a country that highlights how left wing policies can crush a society. A real UN would have got rid of him years ago. Oh, and a bit of drug trade in the mix. Let's see if Trump commits any feet to the ground. Let's see how it plays out. Suspect old tired media and their acolytes will be wrong again in their projections. Some had Milei on the ropes a few weeks back, just won big time. Before that tariffs were going to destroy the world economy, Now got Trump demolishing a section of the White House ad nauseum, as if no previous President has made changes. They can't decide whether he's Hitler or a King. Fear not though, most people no longer respect MSM and those that read it, like me, just can't believe how bent and twisted they've become. At least CBS News is about to get a makeover and maybe CNN later?

It will all be fine as Starmer says it was "completely unacceptable". Why do I hear this insipid phrase so often from the left? Gaza was described as such for two years, especially as regards Hamas holding the hostages - completely unacceptable eh. My suspicion is they wish to convey their righteous feeling, maybe hold another commission or hearing into it as they shirk from getting to the core, and doing something about it.

Wow, you are the wit. Not American, though have lived and worked there as well as Canada, England, Vanuatu, Indonesia, Nigeria and my native Australia. The deranged are from the reeling and sometimes violent left. Clueless, rudderless with inept scheming Dems. Now they're scared <deleted>less that Gaza peace might happen, climate change ain't going to be the doom they've been swallowing for years and the US is going to pull through Trump's manic energy albeit with some horrid turns of phrase, leaving them with little to moan about. Oh, some of the baggage might lose their jobs.

Three points and all wrong. K & W both far more rapport with ME leaders than anyone Democrat administrations. Tony Blair has continued to build relationships with ME leaders over the years, and understands the details and ramifications much better than some UN socialist. The media pile on after the Iraq WMD (read his many page speech to parliament when he gained the vote to invade) was a precursor to their coverage on ME affairs ever since - naive, ideological and damaging. Why would the US or Israel wish to have military in Gaza? Israel pulled out, with all the settlers 20 years ago and is far better for Arab nations to try sort out this deranged society.

Trump said there would be pain until the necessary medicines addressed the myriad of ills - including millions of illegal immigrants, bloated bureaucracies, especially Health, also business regulations and those stifling nuclear energy development, domestic production, and foreign affairs. So not surprised the Left wing voters are in the mood to protest, many have been hurt. Doubt "everyone is sick of trump rite (sic) now", nor would Trump give a toss about Venezuelan oil. More likely sick of their people living in misery and trying to escape to the US from Maduro, a dictator continuing the ruination of what should be a comfortable society. But he's Left wing, so we don't hear much of that right now. "Desperately trying to incite violence" is a bit rough, given the Leftish propensity to smash windows, cause urban mayhem when they don't like what's happening. That's why it was so refreshing that these protests were peaceful, the first in a long time. The Republicans have a year to prepare for the mid terms, and Trump wanted to roll out as many reforms as soon as possible to survive those. Mind you, the Democrats are so disorganised, Trump might be able to slow down a tad. In the meantime, news snippets that sneak out like black employment and income levels are catching up, overseas investment in US manufacturing is on the increase, and making progress to catch up to China and Russia in nuclear energy development, will hopefully get louder as things settle down. If I'm wrong, Republicans will pay at the mid terms. And all those convinced Trump is so authoritarian that elections will be suspended, whatever, will have to be a little humble in their relief.

All very big Dem cities so little wonder about the crowds sharing their Trump Derangexxx Syndrome - shouldn't they be in quarantine? Pleased it was peaceful, bit of a first from the Lefties these days. And I'm sure there are some legitimate concerns, but those on the threat of impending authoritarianism are as hysterical as the world is ending from too much CO2.

I'm betting he won't be deported with successful appeal, but we'll probably have to search later to find that out.

Funny the things that those suffering <removed> will believe, and the things they won't. But like the mediocre media, they won't follow up or even learn it seems when their projections prove wrong. Some fairly examples...Biden is in excellent health, The US needs Harris to save USA from neo -fascism. Tariffs are going to decimate the US and world economies. Trump won't be able to secure peace in Gaza (it could still go wrong y'all). Extended lockdowns are necessary and those protesting are far right wing. Germany is showing the way in a world facing catastrophic climate change. All huge narratives and all hugely wrong. No wonder people are deserting these left wing hold outs and tuning into much more sensible and less biased outlets like Bari Weiss, now CBS News after Paramount bought The Free Press.
