Elon Musk's narcissistic political ambitions are not limited by the borders of the United States. Musk started his “world tour” of stirring far-right sentiments and attempting to install radical, Musk-friendly figures in positions of power in the United Kingdom. In early January he once again tweeted “Free Tommy Robinson!” and shared a link to his controversial documentary titled Silenced. He was ordered to pay Hijazi 100,000 pounds ($125,260) in damages, cover his legal costs to the tune of 500,000 pounds ($626,300) and served with an injunction preventing him from publicly repeating his false claims about the Syrian schoolboy. By making the documentary Silenced, in which he repeats the false claims, he was sentenced to 18 months in prison in October. A decade-old “grooming gang scandal” related to the abuse of white girls in several English towns and cities. The truth and all its nuances, however, do not concern Musk

Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warns against mooted talks with Washington. Iran "holds the United States responsible for the consequences and repercussions of such unilateral and bullying actions" During his previous term in office in 2018, Trump pulled the US out of 2015 pact. Iran has made concessions in the past but the US “tore up” previous agreements. The sanctions announced on Thursday were the first new ones to be levied on Iran since Trump returned to the White House. Germany, France and the United Kingdom have been holding diplomatic talks with Tehran in recent months.

I became angry at the audacity of a preening braggart who claims to have the best interests of Palestinians at mummified heart while he intends to “clean out” Gaza. There is nothing to “go back” to since for 15 months, Israel has committed genocide in Gaza. More than 100,000 people have been injured – in mind, body, and spirit – often grievously. Netanyahu and rancid company are determined to turn much of it into dust and memory, too. I have warned in column after column that this has been the perverse end game all along. To ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank. It was a dream shared by the decrepit and recently departed US commander-in-chief, Joe Biden, his duplicitous Secretary of State, Antony Blinken. I doubt that the current Israeli-adoring occupant of the Oval Office will remember that senior Biden administration officials were also negotiating with Israel to drain Gaza of Palestinians. I d

A magnitude 5.2 quake struck Santorini on Wednesday evening. On Thursday, two larger tremors jolted the island, each exceeding a magnitude of 4.0. The island, one of Greece’s Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea, has been experiencing near-constant earthquakes since January 27, 2025. Greece lies in a highly seismically active part of the world, and earthquakes are not rare. Authorities are making preparations in case of an even larger quake. The quakes have not caused injuries or major damage. Between 2011 and 2012, Santorini underwent significant seismic activity due to magma movement beneath the surface. “We cannot exclude the possibility to have an earthquake of around 6.0 on one of the neighbouring faults,” Ganas said. The first scenario is that we are in the middle of a seismic swarm,” he said.

Russia has designated many rights organisations as "foreign agents" in light of the freeze, Russian philanthropists Boris Zimin and exiled tycoon-turned-Russian opposition figure Mikhail Khodorkovsky announced a $600,000 (€577,736) support programme for Russian and Ukrainian language projects. In Belarus, rights groups supporting political prisoners in the country are expected to see drastic cuts to their funding. "It is necessary to make their existence legally impossible," he says.

AI Summary:

Donald Trump recently denounced South Africa’s new Expropriation Act. He falsely frammed it as a racially driven attack on the white minority. Trump is well within his rights to withhold US aid. Inflammatory comments are not just misguided; they are dangerous. About 64 percent of Black South Africans remain landless, and millions live in informal settlements or overcrowded townships. The “willing-buyer, willing-seller” model, introduced in the 1990s, placed the financial burden on the state to buy land at market rates. This approach, while politically cautious, has failed: land redistribution targets remain unmet, and economic disparities continue to widen. There is no widespread campaign to seize land arbitrarily, nor is the government engaged in racial persecution. The Expropriation Act does not grant the state unchecked power. But beyond the inaccuracy of his claims, Trump’s interference is dangerous. South Africa i

Russian spy ship, the Kildin, drifted temporarily out of control off the Syrian coast on Jan. 23. Associated Press obtained audio of the broadcast, as well as video and photos showing the blaze. The audio provides an unusual peek inside Russia's spy ships that NATO nations are watching closely. The Yantar "was caught loitering over critical undersea infrastructure," the Defense Ministry says. The 55-year-old Kildin gathers intelligence on NATO activities in the Mediterranean. They say the blaze burned for at least four hours and that the Kildin’s crew removed the covers from lifeboats. Moscow is no longer able to use its Black Sea Fleet for Mediterranean patrols because Turkey isn’t allowing warships to pass through the Bosporus. The audio gathered by the NATO ship is a 75-second radio exchange between the Kildin and a Togo-flagged cargo ship, Milla Moon. Military officials provided both recordings to the AP. Dasha Lit
