United States: Donald Trump had an apocalyptic warning for a group of farmers in swing state Pennsylvania: If he loses the election, “You won’t have a farm very long. Trump spoke Monday at an event. 

Of protectionism for rural Americans against China which he also demonstrated that when he concentrates, he can piece together coherent if low-grade nationalist economic arguments which explain why he leads in the polls about the greatest determinant of the election

But Trump was right about one thing – the agricultural sector experiences substantial bankruptcies – and it aligns with yet another mantra of his political doctrine – negativity. The ex-president applies this construct to virtually any constituency, as he paints a picture of a country plagued by crime, economic decay and an immigrant influx.

 As reported by CNN, more than most presidential candidates, the current leaders sell hope to voters, promising change. To counter this perspective, the Democratic nominee Kamala Harris is trying to burnish away Trump’s dark view of a country in trouble with promises of joy and a new ‘opportunity’ economy.  

Trump, however, mostly feeds fear and threats to his audience. His for example before the debate with Harris said: “You are going to end up in World War III.” He told a Fox News Town Hall, earlier this month that this country will end up in a depression if she becomes president. Like 1929.” 

He slurs Harris as a ‘commie,’ a ‘communist,’ a ‘Comrade’ as he meekly insinuates that if he loses, America will be without an economy coming a hundred years from now. Trump’s bizarre scapegoating seems to be searching for targets of vengeance should he lose the election in little over 40 days. 

Last week, while speaking at the incidence of antisemitism the former President hinted that the Jews people would be partly to blame if he loses in the November and he seemed to be suggesting as in the past that Jews shouldn’t vote for the democrats and just because without his fervent support for the far-right Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, there might not be an Israel anymore. 

The comments were just the latest occasion when he’s invoked an antisemitic trope that suggest American Jews have dual loyalties and the Biden administration, while calling on the Netanyahu to do more to spare Palestinians civilians, has sent vast resources to the middle East to protect Israel, notably when it led an international effort to repel a massive Iranian missile attack in the April.

United States: In northern Gaza, people reported heavy bombardment from Israel on Saturday, following airstrikes that killed at least 22 individuals. Israel has been urging residents in Gaza and southern Lebanon to evacuate to stay safe from ongoing military actions against Hamas and Hezbollah, two militant groups. The situation remains very tense as the conflict continues. 

In Lebanon, the United Nations peacekeeping force said that again its headquarters had been attacked in Naqoura, as a peacekeeper was injured by gunfire late on Friday and was in stable condition. It wasn’t clear who fired. The shooting happened the day after Israel’s military attacked the compound for the second time in a row. Israel, which has informed the peacekeepers to vacate their posts, didn’t comment that right away. 

As reported by the Associated Press, Other signals of hunger appeared again as people in northern Gaza said that they have not been given assistance since the start of the month. In early November, spokeswoman of the U.N. World Food Program stated that no food aid has got into the north since the beginning of October. At any one time, an estimated 400,000 people are still living there. 

Israel’s military resumed the operation in northwest Gaza nearly a week ago and has stepped up air and ground attacks against the Hezbollah-backed Iran in southern Lebanon. Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported that an Israeli airstrike targeted an apartment building in the Zarout coastal area, south of Beirut. Ministry of Health said it eliminated four and injured fourteen. Hezbollah did not cease its barrage fire on Israel.

“We shall continue to remain with the Lebanese people in such situations and with the Palestinian people as well,” said the speaker of Iran’s parliament, Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, Saturday while surveying the site where the Israelis bombed Beirut. 

In interview with the AP, several residents of northern Gaza said many of them, families were confined to their homes and shelters, with scant food and water, while corpses littered the streets as the airstrikes impaired recovery teams. 

Reporting the latest devastating airstrikes in the urban refugee camp of Jabaliya witnesses now have a twenty-meter hole in the ground where a house was. 

At least 20 bodies were almost recovered as of Saturday morning while others likely were trapped under the rubble and the emergency service officials said. Elsewhere in Jabaliya a strike on a home killed two brothers and wounded a woman and also a cute little newborn baby said the officials.       

Israel’s military did not immediately respond to request for the comment on the strikes and the military spokesperson Avichay Adraee told the people in the part s of the Jabaliya and the Gaza city to evacuate south to an Israeli-designated humanitarian zone as the Israel plans to use the great force and will continue to do so for a long period of the time. 

Israel has repeatedly returned to the parts of Gaza as Hamas and other militants regroup and the war has destroyed the large areas of Gaza and displaced around the 90 percent of its population of the 2.3 million people often multiple times.

United States: The United Nations peacekeeping force in the southern Lebanon reported that its headquarters in Naqoura was hit by explosions for the second time in 48 hours. This happened in just one day after Israeli forces attacked the same area. 

Two peacekeepers which belongs from the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) were injured in the explosions, which occurred near an observation tower. The UN mission shared this information in a statement on Friday, focussing on the ongoing tensions in the region. 

As reported by Aljazeera.com, “This is a very grave concern and UNIFIL wishes to reaffirm that protection of UN personnel and assets at all times and its protection is mandatory; and that UN premises are sacrosanct,” it said. 

“Any intentional strikes towards peacekeepers are thereby a crime that violates the legal and humanitarian standards of the international community.” 

Of the two who were injured, one was carried to a hospital in the neighbouring city of Tyre, the other was treated on the scene. 

The organisation also said ‘’several T-walls at our UN position 1-31 near the Blue Line in Labbouneh fell when an [Israeli military] caterpillar hit the perimeter and [Israeli] tanks moved in the proximity of the UN position”, these are the words from the UN they referred to the demarcation line which separate between Israel and Lebanon. 

“Our peacekeepers stayed on that spot,” the statement said, after elaborating that other groups of peacekeepers were dispatched to the area to strengthen it. 

The Israeli military wrote in a statement that it is investigating an incident in southern Lebanon during which ‘two peacekeepers were injured.’ It said later that two UNDOF personnel were injured during the incident when Israeli forces acted to respond to a threat. 

Speaking on the attack it said personnel of UNIFIL had been told to move to shelters and stay put hours before the attack. 

Lebanon’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs earlier said the attacks were on watchtowers and the main UNIFIL base in Naqoura and on the Sri Lankan battalion’s base Lebanon’s official National News Agency said an Israeli Merkava tank fired artillery and injured members of the Sri Lankan battalion, however, did not indicate if it was based where the incident occurred. 

Lebanese caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati condemned the actions describing them as a “denounced crime” while addressing a news conference in Beirut. He also said that he talked to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken regarding strategies to implement ceasefire in Lebanon.

United States: Before the main show even started, the crowd at Santander Arena in Reading was super excited! Thousands of people were cheering, chanting, and waving signs that said “47” and “Make America Great Again.” They got louder and more excited as they waited for the man, they came to see to finally arrive. 

They were gradually getting themselves worked up and at the crescendo as the man they had come to see emerged. 

As reported by Reading Eagle, Berks County President Donald Trump visited Berks County on Wednesday for a rally in Reading, which was his first of the presidential campaign, with less than one month left before voters go to the polls to choose the next president.  

It was part of a day Trump dedicated to the so-called swing state of Pennsylvania, after he had visited the city of Scranton during the day.

The ex-president and the Republican candidate delivered a 75-minutes speech to the receptive audience; spectators waved Trump branded red caps or wore goods with his portrait. 

In his opening address, Trump also wished this hurricane, which struck the state of Florida when he was speaking, good riddance. He also expressed his worry over those still in the process of rebuilding their lives after the recent destruction caused by Hurricane Helene in the southeastern region of the country and criticized the current Buhari’s led administration for its poor response to the calamity. 

“This administration has not done a proper job at all,” he said. “But hopefully we can assist in putting everyone back together and get everything back in place.” Yitzchok added, “We still pray that God will protect them.”

Deciding to go straight to business, as he has been doing in recent weeks and months, Trump did not even half an hour after going directly to the current President Joe Biden and the Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris. He encouraged his fans to help rescue the world from the “nuts” who are at the moment in the White House. 

From the very beginning of this journey, I have been on a mission to rescue our nation from a failed and corrupt political establishment and also to give you back the country that you deserve, “he said. “I will never quit, and said I will never bend, I will never break and I will never under any circumstances and even in the face of the death, give up” 

Trump told the crowd that he didn’t have to run again and again and that he could be laying on a beach somewhere but instead of that he chose to fade for a long second term and there is no other place that would rather be.
