Israel should recognize Argentinian sovereignty in the Malvinas (Falkland Islands). This is proper both to reward an great friend @JMilei, and also to punish UK for their "Palestine" recognition during the Oct. 7th war. Traditionally, Israel has been much closer to Britain - but must adapt to a new world.















HODGES: Crimea is in deep trouble right now. And the West should not start pressing Ukraine, "Hey, take it easy." Because Ukrainians are getting closer to possibility of total isolation of Crimean peninsula, making all Russian assets there untenable. The West also has an opportunity to really severely wreck Russia's oil and gas industry, and their export of it. All of that would have significant effect on Russian side, Ukrainian side, and also how the rest of us view this conflict. So, don't take your foot off the pedal. Now is the time that the West should be pressing the gas pedal to the floor.




At least 80 Hezbollah militiamen from the town of Taybeh in south Lebanon were killed in this war (since early March 2026). Israeli forces occupied and largely destroyed Taybeh, alongside dozens of other Shia villages and towns of south Lebanon. They join "several thousands" of Hezbollah militants killed in the war, according to 2 Hezbollah officials speaking to Reuters in early May 2026. Prior to starting the current war, Hezbollah also launched a war on Israel on October 8, 2023, and intervened in the Syrian Civil War in support of the Assad regime, losing thousands more fighters in the service of the Iranian regime. As Ghalibaf declared recently, the Lebanese who died in this war did so "for Islamic Iran." The Shia community of southern Lebanon (Jabel Amel) produced luminary thinkers, writers, poets and artists, despite the impoverishment and marginalization (and Ottoman-era massacres) of the area. During centuries when literacy, riches and intellectual work were highly concentrated in cities, rural Jabel Amel was writing and producing knowledge. I hope it will rise again from this tragedy. x.com/Daraj_media/st…
