#UPDATE | We received a report of a suspicious male on Bristol Street, Salford, at around 11:52am today. Officers established that the individual was wearing a weighted gym vest and carrying a skipping rope at an outdoor gym. There is no threat to the wider community.
The most definitive White House statement purporting to justify the Israel-US war on Iran was its March 2, 2026 statement entitled "The Iranian Regime's Decades of Terrorism against American Citizens". whitehouse.gov/articles/2026/… After a brief editorial opening, the article lists 44 incidents with a total of 992 US deaths. The source of the data wasn't given. Where did it come from? Unlike the Iraq war or the Russia collusion allegation, the reporting didn't come from an intelligence assessment, flawed or otherwise. It turns out that the list was plagiarized by the White House from a June 19, 2025 list (fdd.org/analysis/2025/…) prepared by a former AIPAC employee (Tzvi Kahn) for a think tank (FDD) founded "to provide education to enhance Israel's image in North America". The think tank's original identity was "EMET (Hebrew for 'truth')". The June 19, 2025 publication was literally on the eve of the first US bombing of Iran on June 21, 2025. In this thread, I'll compare each and every item in the White House statement to the corresponding item in the original list by the former AIPAC employee. The list is virtually identical. Any slight changes are always in the change of ratcheting up the underlying allegation.

I have been arguing again & again that Iran is in a very unfavorable situation (fighting against the foremost military power on the planet) ... but it does have real leverage in several senses. Most notably by virtue of its geography & smart investments in certain asymmetric warfare technologies (most notably missiles and drones), which allow it to threaten the global economy by disrupting energy supplies. This is not hype. It's not wishful thinking. It is very real. We see it playing out. And it's certainly having an impact. In the past Iran threatened to, but did not actually use this leverage, because of the terrible risks involved. But with its back against the wall & very little to lose, it's escalated to great lengths and has up to now somewhat successfully used those levers. But - This leverage is not infinite. In the past, Iran's downfall has always been in demonstrating brilliant abilities that let it punch beyond its weight ... but then failing to capitalize on those abilities and waiting so long that it eventually loses that advantage. As such there is a difficult, high stakes balance here. It cannot back down too soon or be timid under these circumstances. The madman strategy is the only way out of total annihilation. Up to a point. At some point it must then use that demonstrated ability to force a settlement. Not just a ceasefire. Something durable. And not get trapped in a post-1991 Saddam situation either. It's a difficult balance. It likely means turning down initial opportunities for a ceasefire (despite extreme pain). But not forever. At some point the leverage must be used, or it will disappear.
A ski-masked gunman emerged from behind a light beacon and murdered an 18-year-old woman who was gathered with friends this morning at Loyola Beach. The victim’s social media indicates she was a student at Loyola University. The attack appears random. cwbchicago.com/2026/03/gunman…
BREAKING — new details about Friday's Austin bus stabbing. Two passengers were sitting in the back of the #3 bus on South Lamar, having a Bible discussion. Rogerio Martinez, sitting across from them, apparently found this annoying. "I'm tired of hearing your voice,” Martinez said. Then he stood up with a kitchen knife. One was mid-conversation, turned away, when the first blade went into his back. He spun around and threw up his bare hands -- Martinez kept stabbing. Four times total. A stranger named jumped in, pushed Martinez off, and wrestled him into a bus seat. Martinez stabbed him in the leg anyway. Bleeding, the man held him pinned to the seat until police arrived. Officers found Martinez still on the bus, blood on his hands and shirt, surrounded by people he'd just put on the ground. He refused to talk. One victim was transported to Dell Seton in critical condition. The other to South Austin Hospital. Surveillance footage captured all of it. Martinez -- who was named as the suspect yesterday on this account before local news reported it today -- has spent decades cycling through Texas courtrooms: robbing people, strangling a family member, and most recently beating an HEB security guard in the forehead with her own flashlight. Four aggravated robbery charges, a family strangulation, a felony assault knocked to a misdemeanor -- and every time, a system that found a reason to put him back on the street. Two people are in the hospital now because prosecutors apparently never attempted to take him to court and face punishment for his crimes.
At a press conference, the U.S. Secretary of Defense, when asked about Iran and Afghanistan, stated: “They are our enemies whether they are Sunni or Shia.”
