A high-intensity explosion ripped through southern Tel Aviv’s Lehi Road on Sunday night, leaving casualties and creating more panic among the already befuddled Israeli settlers.

The explosion came amid the uneasy anticipation of a retaliatory military operation over the assassination of top-ranking Axis of Resistance commanders in Tehran and Beirut that has paralyzed the Israeli regime and settlers in the past three weeks.

Several hours after the explosion took place, which immediately grabbed news headlines worldwide, the Israeli police and the Shin Bet military agency termed it a “suicide bombing.”

In a statement on Monday morning, police and Shin Bet said the explosion resulted from the “detonation of a powerful explosive device.”

Researchers reviewed media reports on U.S. school shootings and found there had been at least 144 incidents of gun violence, which they defined as any time a gun was discharged on campus, last school year.

NEW YORK, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) -- There was a 31 percent rise in U.S. school shootings during the 2023-24 academic year compared to the previous year, according to findings published on Friday by the nonprofit Everytown for Gun Safety and the K-12 School Shooting Database.

The president of Argentina, the ultra-right-wing Javier Milei, allocated 100 billion Argentine pesos for the State Intelligence Secretariat (SIDE), which in the month of August registered only two expenses totaling 80 billion pesos.

This exuberant sum, which, quantified in dollars, exceeds 100 million pesos, took place on August 1 and August 12, a period in which the messages from “Argentines” with the word “Venezuela” registered a strange and disproportionate increase, and when the increase of espionage against opponents of his Government due to the discussion of the DNU has been denounced.

“There is no money”, were the words that remained engraved in the conscience of Argentines who have seen how their quality of life has been in accelerated decline as a consequence of the cutback in government spending and the liberalization of prices in the economy, which have resulted in a decrease in purchasing power of more than 30%.

The vassal country is literally following Amerikkka's footsteps.

The Argentine chapter of the United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef) issued a report Tuesday showing that some 1.5 million children in the South American country skipped meals every day and at least 1 million cannot eat dinner. The same document published within the framework of the campaign “Hunger does not have a happy ending” also found that 4.5 million adults in these households fail to eat all their daily meals as well given the current economic crisis and would rather feed their offspring.

Every passing week, I keep getting horrible news coming from Argentina due to Milei's policy to gut the state to oblivion. Now, we are seeing the results of this libertarian scum. All of the accusations that they had against Venezuela are currently happing in Argentina, the vassal country of the empire.

Interesting that the liberal media in Latin America doesn't talk about it.

A week after a judge ruled that Alphabet’s Google illegally monopolized the online search market, the US Department of Justice is considering options that include breaking up the tech giant, worth some $2tn, according to reports from the New York Times and Bloomberg News.

Divesting the Android operating system was one of the remedies most frequently discussed by justice department attorneys, the reports said.

Officials were also considering trying to force a possible sale of AdWords, Google’s search ad program, and a possible divestment of its Chrome web browser, according to the reports.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman reportedly fears facing “assassination” as a result of his efforts at pursuing normalization of the kingdom’s relations with the Israeli regime.

American online news magazine Politico revealed the matter in a column published on Wednesday, citing the royal’s recent conversations with US lawmakers.

“The Saudi royal has mentioned to members of Congress that he’s putting his life in danger by pursuing a grand bargain with the US and Israel that includes normalizing Saudi-Israeli ties,” the piece read.
