This seems so strange. The US State Department issued a worldwide warning for US citizens to be cautious about terrorists. In and of itself this is prudent imo given all going on in world. But then when you read details, it warns more to LBGTQ et al. Weird. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/worldwide-caution.html
It's probably because June is just around the corner, and there will be lots of traveling to pride events, unfortunately
More images of the fireball that lit up the night sky last weekend in the Iberian Peninsula: I was sorry I didn't see it. Some people told me it was like it was daylight for a brief moment during the night. A friend of mine who was driving thought a nuclear war had started and immediately returned home to pick up her daughter.

Moscow has also been supplying free grain to a number of African countries that are facing food insecurity." https://www.rt.com/russia/598032-russia-record-grain-exports-minister/
Norway, Ireland, Spain to recognise Palestinian state The three European countries will formally enact recognition on May 28 despite Israel’s warnings of the consequences. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/5/22/norway-will-recognise-palestinian-state-pm-says
I don't know what to think about this. Does it provoke Israel into dangerous reactions? This could go any number of ways.
I get the sense that it will set off a chain reaction of more nations following suit, as well more protests kicking off including in Israel. This is really really bad for Netanyahu IMO. That being said, recognizing Palestine means recognizing Hamas, which is controversial at best.
At least nine dead after stage collapses at Mexico campaign rally https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024...fter-stage-collapses-at-mexico-campaign-rally “I’ve never experienced something so sudden,” said Alvarez Maynez, referring to how suddenly the wind picked up. Job 1 18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: 19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
Technically it will come to the same as with Israel. The Jews had the Haganah, Lehi and Irgun terrorist organizations that killed Palestinians from the 1920s to 1948. In 1946, they killed the entire leadership of British Palestine in the King David Hotel, since it was then managing that area, meaning over 100 people, etc. In the end, these terrorist organizations only integrated into the IDF when Israel was recognized as a state in 1948, and some members became high officials and even presidents of Israel. Hamas will be integrated into the Palestinian Army. Hamas leaders will get high positions in the army and the state. "Because I do it with one small ship, I am called a terrorist. You do it with a whole fleet and are called an emperor." Saint Augustine Unfortunately, every war first kills the God in man, and then everything is easy for evil. I don't think that any person who sees a war can come out normal after it. Either he finds God after that, goes crazy and takes his own life like many others, or he is a walking dead man with no conscience. I see you're from Mexico. I know you have over 30,000 murders a year. They are mostly gangs and I guess in certain areas, especially the poor. However, it is unclear to me that 15-year-old boys can cold-bloodedly eliminate entire families, literally mutilate victims and humiliate a person's dignity. Aren't they afraid of God and that one day they too will die?!! I remember that once more than 40 students disappeared and they killed them in cold blood... I don't know how these gang killers can live with themselves, how they come to their families after that, how they even became like that... Just like Brazil, and other Latin American countries rich in faith and really good people, and on the other hand like some new World where life is worth less than an animal.
the reason why Brazil still has a serious problem with urban violence is that there are left-wing parties and organizations that still prevent the change of laws, reducing the age of criminal responsibility and introducing the death penalty, this has nothing to do with the character of the majority of the Brazilian population. Although we have seen significant growth in the Protestant faith in recent years, Protestant churches do not prevent Catholics from proselytizing, as occurs in Russia, and they also do not threaten our physical integrity as occurs in areas dominated by Islamic fundamentalist groups.
The fact that some see Hamas as terrorists and others as freedom fighters obviously makes them controversial. The fact also remains that 34 innocent hostages have also been killed at the hands of Hamas, which makes Hamas evil. But this is standard fare for Hamas, their entire history is covered in innocent blood. We only need to look to the second intifada to see this. So when I said that recognizing Palestine is controversial, I was being generous. Yes, Israel has committed evil since its inception, I never said otherwise. However, just because Israel commits evil acts doesn't suddenly make Hamas righteous. I do agree that in many ways Israel helped to create the monster they are now fighting. Evil begets evil. Hamas is a terrorist organization. I assume you are suggesting that somehow the evil that Hamas commits is lesser because it is never done in cold blood. Which is why you brought Mexico into this. You realize that Hamas has a history of suicide bombings and attacking buses full of children? They are as cold as can be when it comes to killing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Palestinian_suicide_attacks I also don't know why so many Mexicans are murdered each year. But if you look at the nations with the most murders, they all are in warm climates in the new world. https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/murder-rate-by-country That being said western nations have a large history of killing each other, committing genocide and subjugating people in other nations whereby they are treated as less than animals. Even today look at how the US and EU use the people of Ukraine to fight their wars. Hundreds of thousands dead, families ruined, an entire nation destroyed. Look at how many nations in the west take advantage of slave labor world wide. I suppose sin and its consequences have different ways of manifesting around the world.
I see the big super volcano at Naples is kicking off again. I think it is one of the small group of volcanoes in the world (which includes Yellowstone)which could wipe out the planet if they blew full steam. Prayers.
