Lebanese health ministry says killing of 91 healthcare workers shows ‘total disregard’ for international law
By the time the other emergency workers arrived at the site, they found the IHA medics had indeed been caught in a second strike. They started evacuating their wounded colleagues, only for their ambulances to be hit in two further attacks.
...The rescue mission on Wednesday afternoon had turned into a nightmare as Israel carried out three consecutive strikes on three sets of ambulances and medical workers.
Keir Starmer Can't Survive
The Labour Party that Starmer led routed the Tories in 2024, giving hope her of a harbinger for a Kamala Harris win. It didn't happen. And Starmer has proved the most unpopular Prime Minister in the last half century, with a net approval rating 46 points under water in November of 2025. That was caused, in part, by the resignation of his Deputy Prime Minister, Angela Rayner, in September in a tax scandal.
And then Epstein struck. Peter Mandelson was named by Starmer to be Ambassador to the United States--not an insignificant posting! Mandelson's appointment was controversial from the beginning, on accounta this was not his first scandal rodeo. He had resigned from two Minister's appointments twice previously.
There is a quaint British practice (one that did not travel the North Atlantic to the Toilet Nation colony). It is a "Minister's Code", a code of conduct. Though shall not lie to Parliament is a biggie. It was a mystery to some MPs how Mandelson, a scandal supermagnet, survived the UK's official vetting process. How could he? But the Prime Minister, when questioned in Commons about the vetting of Mandelson to be Ambassador to the U.S. sorta said Mandelson had been vetted. What he literally said, 3xs, was that "due process" had been followed. Squirm.
But wait.
In fact, Mandelson, had been vetted by the United Kingdom Security Vetting (UKSV)! Yeah, Starmer!
Mandelson FLUNKED. BOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Starmer appointed him anyway, you know, because the UK and US have a "special relationship". And Mandelson and the Florida Criminal, who was elected by the Toilet People (again) in 2024, shared a "special relationship" with Jeffrey Epstein.
Anyway, to make the long story which you know how it ends, short, Starmer axed Mandelson after nine months.
The enduring scandal is over the vetting and Starmer's lying to Parliament and the flames have consumed the Foreign Office and are not lapping at Starmer's heels. He's COOKED!

Iran "Cautiously Optimistic’ about negotiations with the US,--Iran UN envoy Amir Saeid Iravani
“Despite our deep mistrust of the United States, stemming from its repeated betrayal of diplomacy, we nevertheless enter the negotiation in good faith and remain cautiously optimistic,” he told the U.N. General Assembly on Thursday.
“We believe that should the United States adopt a rational and constructive approach and refrain from advancing demands that are inconsistent with international law, this negotiation can lead to a meaningful outcome.”

Iran’s Navy is laying at the bottom of the sea, completely obliterated - 158 ships. What we have not hit are their small number of, what they call, “fast attack ships,” because we did not consider them much of a threat. Warning: If any of these ships come anywhere close to our BLOCKADE, they will be immediately ELIMINATED, using the same system of kill that we use against the drug dealers on boats at Sea. It is quick and brutal. P.S. 98.2% of Drugs coming into the U.S. by Ocean or Sea have STOPPED! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT

Barry Jackson is exasperated (so are "Heat" fans)
It’s now mercifully over — this exhausting third consecutive Heat season of pushing the boulder up the hill, this six-month road-to-nowhere odyssey that felt as exasperating and unsatisfying as the previous two.
And the hope, at least here, is that this era of Heat basketball, built around a core that’s rich in skilled supporting players but lacking an elite centerpiece, also is mercifully over.
We have implored the front office and ownership to break up at least part of this nucleus each of the past two years and sell high on players, before Jimmy Butler forced the team’s hand. But the brain trust twice decided against it, convinced this group was better than the rest of us thought and hopeful there could be a 2023-like playoff run.
This year, there wasn’t even a play-in run.
As it turns out, ownership and Pat Riley were simply a year or two late to realize what much of the fan base suspected many, many months ago: This group simply isn’t good enough. This incarnation of the Heat felt like a sitcom that stayed on the air two years too long, relying on stale lines (“we have enough!”) and characters who overstayed their welcome.
There are four significant power brokers in the organization – Riley, Erik Spoelstra and owners Micky Arison and son/CEO Nick Arison. ...
...[Jackson then poses questions to each of the four stakeholders]:
To Erik Spoelstra...It’s not unfair to question why he gave a long leash to veterans who hardly put up a fight against Indiana, Charlotte and Toronto in late-season games, while operating with a short leash with Ware.
...
But there’s one area that’s never discussed that I find curious about Spoelstra — not as a coach, but as an executive if his personnel power grows whenever Riley decides to retire to Malibu.
This will never be answered, but the question is whether Spoelstra recognized this roster’s grave deficiencies and pushed for major changes last summer. (That’s an answer that’s unknown.) Did the Heat need to lose last year’s first round series by 200 points, instead of 122, [lol] for everyone with a voice in personnel to realize that this nucleus was going nowhere?
[That IS the major question for me as well. The key quote from Spo this season was "we believe this roster has a high ceiling." I mocked him by re-branding the team as the "Hi-Cs". I took from that quote that that was his true opinion also. Whether it was or was not, it was horribly wrong as Jackson states.]

Israel Out of Control
Israeli settlers staged an average of 10 daily attacks on Palestinians since Iran war began, rights group says
Yesh Din, an Israeli organization that monitors settler violence in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, posted its report to X on Wednesday.
It includes incidents where settlers killed, injured and harassed Palestinians, damaged and set fire to their property and took over their buildings and land.
In 10% of the attacks — which spanned 148 Palestinian communities across the territory — settlers used live fire, said Yesh Din.

Children killed in Lebanon as Israeli strikes hit homes far from front lines of war with HezbollahBEIRUT (AP) — In the hours after the U.S. and Iran announced a tentative ceasefire, Israel dramatically escalated its attacks in Lebanon against the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah.
The burst of strikes in central Beirut and other parts of the country killed more than 300 people and wounded 1,150 others, according to health officials.
The burst of strikes in central Beirut and other parts of the country killed more than 300 people and wounded 1,150 others, according to health officials.
The Israeli military said that it had targeted sites affiliated with the Hezbollah militant group and announced that it had killed an aide to the group’s leader, Naim Kassem. But the strikes, which hit densely packed residential and commercial districts at rush hour, also killed more than 100 women, children and older people, according to health officials.

Israeli soldiers have also fired “warning shots” in the area and hit UNIFIL vehicles over the past week, UNIFIL said, adding that “in one case, a ‘warning shot’ landed a meter away from a peacekeeper who had dismounted his vehicle.” The peacekeeping force said Israeli soldiers had also destroyed cameras and spray-painted windows at a UNIFIL headquarters. The Israeli military did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the episodes.

Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz.

Good Morning Post From Florida Criminal: Blockade the Strait!
...
I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas. ...
We will also begin destroying the mines the Iranians laid in the Straits. Any Iranian who fires at us, or at peaceful vessels, will be BLOWN TO HELL!...
Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti Aircraft and Radar are useless, Khomeini*, and most of their “Leaders,” are dead, all because of their Nuclear ambition. The Blockade will begin shortly. Other Countries will be involved with this Blockade.
*Ayatollah Khomeini has been dead (of natural causes) since 1989. The Florida Criminal means Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who he assassinated on Feb. 28. Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the murdered father, is the current Supreme Leader of Iran.
....
Additionally and, at an appropriate moment, we are fully “LOCKED AND LOADED,” and our Military will finish up the little that is left of Iran! President DONALD J. TRUMP4/12/26, 8:52 AM
12:58 am:
In the many bizarre exchanges that occurred in the run-up to the US-Israeli attack on Iran...was an invitation by Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff for the Iranian foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, to join him and Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, for a visit to the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group.LOLLLLL
I think they do have dual loyalties. They may have conspired with Netanyahu, but I don't buy the charge that anybody, including those two, "forced" the Florida Criminal into anything.
...
Quite why these indirect talks [off and on from last summer before Operation Midnight Marshmallow, and this year preceding Operation Epstein Fury] failed...is relevant to whether a nuclear deal only is feasible or whether a broader agreement will be necessary now.
...
This matters because after the war, if Iran’s government survives, calls inside inside the country to obtain a nuclear weapon will inevitably grow. Last week’s purported statement from the new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, made no reference to whether the fatwa banning the use of nuclear weapons set out by his late father remained in place. Protesters outside the foreign ministry in Tehran have demanded no return to talks with America.
Those involved in the negotiations say misunderstandings about how Iran’s complex nuclear programme worked – including, for instance, the purpose and uranium needs of the Tehran Research Reactor (TRR), the scope of Iran’s planned future nuclear programme, and the offer for US firms to be involved in Iran’s economy – all contributed to the march to war.
...
The Iranians now say they believe the talks were always a subterfuge, designed to create space for the US to assemble its military armada....
...
One Gulf diplomat said: “Greater time and expertise would not have guaranteed an agreement, but it would have helped. What I will say is that in all the explanations of what went on, it is the Iranians that have normally been telling the truth.”
...
Better than JCPOA
...Kushner admitted a deal could have been presented that was better than the Obama nuclear deal secured in 2015.
...
...British officials briefed on its contents thought it was a good deal, and something to be built on, partly because, unlike the 2015 nuclear deal, there were no sunset clauses.
...
Once the Geneva talks ended, [Feb. 2026]with both sides only signing up to a statement about progress made, it was obvious to the Omani foreign minister that war was imminent, and he dashed to Washington to explain how close he felt the the two sides were to a breakthrough. But his proposal of zero stockpiling did not have the same force as zero enrichment.
The dash across the Atlantic reflected Oman’s belief that Witkoff and Kushner, either knowingly or through ignorance, were not feeding Trump the truth about the progress in the talks. There was also doubt about Trump’s focus. One previous attempt to engage Trump on the status of the talks deteriorated when the president switched the conversation to one of his favourite topics: shoes. In retrospect it might have been better to send a more senior emissary to try to hold Trump’s attention. A day later the war started.

Q: Ira, so If you feel that the Heat’s 10th-place position is based on 10th-place talent and not on Erik Spoelstra (and now four straight years in the play-in), the blame must fall at the feet of Pat Riley. – Joel, Plantation.
A: Or at the feet of an institutional mindset of refusing to step back to step forward. Say what you want about the personnel moves of Pat Riley and his staff, but also look at how almost every elite contender has been built, as in with lottery-level talent, players picked at the top of respective drafts, players such as Cade Cunningham (No. 1 overall), Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown (each a No. 3), Evan Mobley (also a No.3) in the East, Victor Wembanyama (No. 1), Chet Holmgren (No. 2), Jamal Murray (No. 7), Amen Thompson (No. 4) in the West. Now, in some cases, teams have traded up for such picks by moving off proven talent, so perhaps that is what Pat Riley and the Heat have to consider next. But this is more an institutional approach, one that transcends merely Riley, one that only truly can be set at the top, by the Arisons.
Man. that's kicking the can uphill. Beyond Stand Pat? He's the president of BASKETBALL operations. He's part-owner (20%) too. You gonna lay the blame at the feet of the Carnival owners????

Ontario State crushed the Hi-Cs again, 128-114. We're 41-39. Two games left.
The play-in matchups are set. Next Tyoosday, Phila. (7th) will host Disney (8th). The winner becomes the seventh team in the playOFFS. Charlotte (9th), home, vs. Miami (10th) is Wednesday. The loozer enters the draft lottery. The winner of 9-10 will play the loser of the 7 vs 8 game for the eighth playOFF spot. The loser will also enter Lotteryville.
There will be no 10th-to-finals runs for Miami this season. The best result is that we lose to Queens. We will then have a slight, but not zero, chance of getting a high draft pick in the deepest (~ seven-deep) draft in years.
