Allegations of negligence and incompetency surround the death of a Brazilian female tourist who fell off a cliff next to an active volcano in Indonesia and efforts to save her proved futile. Juliana Marins, a 26-year-old publicist, was hiking with a group of friends on Mount Rinjani, a popular tourist site in the Southeast Asian archipelago, when she slipped and fell about 490 feet down the cliff face nearly a week ago, according to news accounts.

A disturbing spree of kidnappings has struck women in the Alawite Muslim minority community in Syria since the fall of dictator Bashar Assad, reports revealed this week, including at least 33 known cases of brazen abductions in broad daylight. The Alawites are a branch of Shia Islam that comprises about ten percent of the Syrian population, but they were dramatically over-represented in the fallen government of Assad, who was himself an Alawite. A little under 75 percent of Syrians are Sunni Muslims from various ethnic backgrounds.  Many Syrians resented the Alawites for enjoying preferential treatment under the brutal Assad dynasty,…

Longtime Democrat strategist James Carville reacted to the Democrat primary win of the far left radical Zohran Mamdani in the New York mayoral race during an appearance on the ‘Politicon’ podcast this week. Carville called it a ‘potentially damaging event’ and seemed to lament the fact that Democrats could no longer dodge the socialist label. Anyone who remembers the 2008 election will recall how Democrats would foam at the mouth if anyone called Obama a socialist. Today, a sizable portion of the Democrat party openly describes themselves as Democratic Socialists. That is the faction to which Mamdani belongs. Transcript via…

President Donald Trump criticized Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, for claiming a victory over Iran’s “12-Day War” with Israel, and pointed out that Iran was “decimated.” In a post on Truth Social, Trump questioned why Khamenei would “so blatantly and foolishly” claim that Iran had “won the War with Israel,” when that is a lie. Trump’s post came after Khamenei claimed in several posts on X that he was offering “Congratulations on the victory over the fallacious Zionist regime.” Khamenei also wrote in another post that “the Zionist regime was practically knocked out and crushed under the blows of the…
