Part One – Local and National News Review
Jewish charity ambulance attack in Golders Green – false flag? Rita Katz – Site. Jewish people telling Al Jazeera to get off their streets. Special constables. The London Ambulances Attack: Of Course It Was A False Flag The notion that the Iranian state would discredit itself by choosing to attack an ambulance service in London is crazy. Iran has not even attacked any hospitals or ambulances in Israel. Iran has absolutely zero record of attacks on healthcare facilities. That is of course in stark contrast to Israel which specifically targets them in Gaza and Lebanon. The obvious revulsion of a UK public, that has been opposed to the war on Iran, at the destruction of the ambulances would far outweigh any possible gain. What precisely is the gain that Iran is supposed to have sought? The organisation that, conveniently for the Zionist narrative, immediately claimed responsibility for the attack is Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia. This is a group which simply did not exist until the US and Israeli attack on Iran, when it suddenly appeared fully formed and started causing small incidents of property damage to Jewish communities in Belgium and the Netherlands. From day one of its appearance, Israeli-backed think tanks and security groups instantly claimed to have linked it to Iranian militias. These Israeli claims were first surfaced by regular Israeli security service outlet Joe Truzman of the “Foundation for Defending Democracy”, who makes a living from fronting Israeli claims that all the deaths in Gaza were Hamas. The first online “evidence” of the existence of the group was on 9 March. On 16 March the entire Israeli Hasbara machinery in coordination went into overdrive on Harakat Ashab al-Yamin. Israel’s Diaspora Ministry issued a statement. So did Israel’s MFA. So did the Institute of National Security Studies. So did BICOM – the Britain Israel Communications and Research Centre. All on the same morning. At a time when Harakat Ashab al-Yamin had done nothing except allegedly start a small fire in Rotterdam. This frenzied publicity activity about this, by that point practically non-existent, group was prioritised by the Israeli state on the morning of some of the most intense missile and bombing attacks by Israel, the USA, Iran and Hezbollah of the war. There are some real red flags about its appearance. The first, as eloquently exposed by Lowkey, is that in its manifesto it uses the term “The Land of Israel” to refer to Palestine. No Islamic group, ever, referred to “The Land of Israel” and the phrase in Arabic is not even what complicit Gulf Arab elites use – they use just “Israel” or “The State of Israel”. “The Land of Israel” is unnatural in Arabic and evidently written by a Zionist and translated into Arabic. The other strange thing is that this allegedly Iranian group doesn’t use Farsi. Iranians don’t speak Arabic. Nor would any Iranian government-aligned group ever talk of “The Land of Israel” in Farsi. To add further to this, the group’s published logo appears to be AI-generated and the Arabic lettering on it is wrong. “Islamic” is rendered incorrectly and some of it doesn’t mean anything coherent at all – it is gibberish, presumably constructed by AI asked to produce a shield with Arabic lettering. Unlike the Zionist propaganda-pumping UK media, Dutch media asked real experts and was openly sceptical of the claims about the group: “Political anthropologist Younes Saramifar from Amsterdam’s VU university said the group was “completely unknown” until this month. “Based on what I have seen, this is absolutely not an organised and coherent group,” he told NOS before the Zuidas explosion. Saramifar said language mistakes in statements accompanying the videos suggest the makers are not native Arabic speakers and may not be part of a trained militant network.” It is another remarkably happy coincidence that the group chose to attack the London ambulances just hours before Metropolitan Police Chief Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley was due to address a fundraising event for the Community Services Trust, the group which receives enormous payouts from the British Treasury for consistently exaggerating the scale of antisemitism in the UK. Thankfully, nobody has ever been hurt in any of the “attacks” by “Harakat Ashab al-Yamin”. Isn’t that fact in itself a bit strange for a state-backed terror group? The ambulances in London were the worst damage ever done in the name of the alleged group. I am unhesitating in condemning all attacks on the Jewish community in the UK. Including those perpetrated by Mossad.
Rowland Dye and Suzie Luger join Tony and Martin. Filton in Bristol and arms companies including Elbit. Filton walking tours by Bristol Against the Arms Trade. Revealed: How the arms industry is targeting Bristol’s secondary schools From ‘colour your own F-35’ to missile simulators, arms companies are promoting STEM careers in schools, but obscuring their role in the bloody global arms trade. Teachers, union reps, and campaign groups are pushing back It’s propaganda work. Companies clean up their image by investing in education. Faria, Disarm Education Just months into the bombardment, staff from BAE Systems were invited to St Katherine’s School near Bristol to speak to students. It is one of the UK’s largest arms companies, and one of the main partners in the production of F-35 fighter jets, many sold to Israel. “It was sprung upon a lot of teachers,” says Alice*, a former St Katherine’s employee. Students weren’t told about the company’s arms involvement or its role in Gaza. “It was a disgrace,” she says. The school’s careers officers emailed staff, saying the assembly would give year 8 students a chance to explore aeronautics and STEM careers. Since 2020, BAE Systems has spent over a billion pounds on education and skills development, regularly showcasing their forays on social media. Posts include robot dogs, lightsaber fights, and presenters with names like ‘Mr Magnetic.’ But crucially – as Alice points out: “They don’t mention at all who they are or what they actually do.” Lack of scrutiny Nick, a religion and ethics teacher, says the same about Rolls Royce, who recently visited his Filton school. “They don’t talk about weapons. They focus on aerospace, then greenwash it by saying, ‘we’re developing synthetic fuels.’” He adds that discussing war with students is tricky. “I teach peace and conflict, but if I start talking about missiles, there’s a good chance someone’s dad works at the nearby Ministry of Defence.” And, he knows many of the students will go on to apprenticeships with Rolls Royce or BAE Systems, both of which have bases in Filton. “Parents need to give consent for sexual health lessons and religious trips, but they don’t have to for arms companies, which is something that we want to raise in the campaign,” she tells the Cable. “It’s propaganda work. Companies clean up their image by investing in education. Rolls Royce don’t announce themselves as an arms company, they’ll hide it under the veneer of innovation, engineering and technology.” Some companies go further. French company Thales, a French company, tours their missile simulator around UK schools. While Lockheed Martin, the world’s largest arms manufacturer, produced an activity book with a ‘colour in the F-35 fighter plane’ exercise for British Science Week. Unions pushing back In July, the government proscribed Palestine Action, which had carried out direct action against companies producing arms used by Israel. Open resistance has become riskier, but activists are finding other ways to push back. In April, Disarm Education affiliated with the National Education Union (NEU), giving members protection to challenge arms industry involvement. NEU members in the Cabot Learning Federation successfully blocked Labour MP Damien Egan, vice chair of Labour Friends of Israel, from speaking at Bristol Brunel Academy due to his stance on Palestine Action and Israel sanctions. An NEU member at a CLF school told the Cable how, in September, the union rep at BBA posted about Egan’s visit in a WhatsApp group, sparking a flurry of organising.
M Shed Bristol exhibition of art against the war – some items pulled at last minute. IDF destroying ambulances in Gaza. Council shuts down art exhibition criticising Bristol’s arms industry “A decision was taken to refuse permission to display certain items that depict Bristol businesses” An art exhibition at the M-Shed in Bristol has sparked controversy, after the city council’s legal department ordered it be shut down just a day after opening. The temporary exhibition, which runs for another few weeks, has now re-opened after the artists and the council agreed to cut out names and faces from artworks that were critical of Bristol’s arms companies and the people who run them. The art show opened in the M-Shed’s top floor visiting exhibition space on March 10, and is called ‘Anatomy of Solidarity’. Three different art collectives contributed work to the exhibition – Latinas in Bristol, Creative Shift and a group called Art Against War Club. Art Against War Club said they installed the works of art on March 9, with the M-Shed’s public programmes manager present, who said all their pieces of art had been ‘flagged and cleared’ with the creative team, and the exhibition opened to the public on March 10. But the following day, some of their work had been taken down and their section of the exhibition was cordoned off, with staff at the M-Shed telling them she wasn’t allowed to speak to them, because the legal department at Bristol City Council – which owns and manages the M-Shed – had raised issues. The exhibition has now, more than a week later, finally opened to the public, but some of the works of art have parts cut out by the artists themselves, to get around what they said they see as council censorship. Other works of the pop-art exhibition have also had references to BAE Systems, Elbit Systems and named people removed, by the artists themselves. One that has survived the ‘censorship’ is a photograph of the statue of Edward Colston on its plinth, but with a quadcopter armed drone where its head should be. The artists said they wanted to challenge Bristol companies’ involvement in supplying arms and military equipment to Israel. The Israeli military operation in Gaza was described as a genocide by a UN Commission of Inquiry report in September 2025, and by the world’s leading association of genocide scholars in the same month. One of the artists from Art Against War Club, Jordan Glynn, claimed: “We understand that a council’s nervous system is wired for compliance – for avoiding risk, avoiding conflict, avoiding being seen as ‘difficult’. “But we’re not here to perform that obedience. Arms companies benefit from a cultural environment of fear and compliance. Our work is a daily disobedience practice. We train ourselves and our audiences to tolerate the discomfort of asking: Who profits from war in our city? We refuse to let fear of corporate displeasure set the limits of what can be said in public space,” he added. Another artist, Sam Catford, alleged: “We had great communications with the M Shed throughout, with work signed off at every stage. “The Public Programmes Manager was present and enthusiastic on opening day. Our only conclusion can be that once people started engaging in these conversations, someone felt there was too much risk, and instead of standing up for the right to discuss these realities in a public forum, they chose to censor our work,” they added. A spokesperson for Bristol City Council said that the exhibition is now open again and they have worked with the artist leading the event to add material that provides visitors with the context for why a request was made to ‘reconsider some items’, and that any changes to the items were made by the artists…..
American Nuclear Weapons Back in the UK after almost 20 years. Trident. RAF Lakenheath now has 20 B61 nuclear bombs. B1, B52 bombers at Fairford. What’s it about. Why It’s Politically Controversial Increased usability: Critics argue its accuracy and low-yield settings make nuclear use more thinkable. NATO forward-deployment: The U.S. stores B61-12s in Europe (Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands—and now the UK), under the nuclear sharing program, which raises tensions with Russia. Modernization cost: The total life extension program for the B61-12 is expected to cost over $10 billion, which has drawn criticism for cost overruns. How They Got There AviationNews – In mid-July 2025, U.S. B61-12 tactical nuclear gravity bombs were reportedly flown from Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico to RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk, England, via C-17 transport aircraft. This marks the first return of American nukes to British soil since around 2008. The deployment follows years of infrastructure upgrades at Lakenheath—including secure underground vaults and a new “surety dormitory”—planned in U.S. Defense Department budget documents as early as 2022–2023. When They Got There Reports indicate the weapons arrived in late July 2025, with public first mentions circulating around July 20. That timing matches recent RAF base upgrades tied to NATO’s dual capable aircraft mission. Where in the UK The site in question is RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk—about 100 km northeast of London. Up to 33 underground vaults (each originally built to store up to four B61 bombs) were in place since the 1990s; currently around 22 are being reactivated for modern storage of B61-12 warheads. These storage areas fall under U.S. military control (not UK), though they are located on British territory and operated in coordination with the RAF’s F-35A–equipped 495th Fighter Squadron, which is now NATO-certified to deliver the B61-12 bombs. Why It Matters First U.S. nukes in the UK in nearly two decades – marking a major shift in NATO’s posture and UK’s role beyond its submarine-based Trident deterrent. Enhanced deterrence – B61-12 bombs have dial-a-yield (0.3 to 50 kilotons) and precision guidance to be delivered by stealth-capable F-35As, signifying a tactical-level nuclear capability redeployed into Europe. Geopolitical signalling – seen by analysts as a direct answer to growing Russian aggression and the Ukraine war, and intended to reassure NATO allies in northern Europe. Non-proliferation concerns – critics warn that resuming so-called nuclear “sharing” may erode norms under the Non-Proliferation Treaty by blurring the line between hosting and proliferation. Security implications – because the strategic placement now places Britain—and its airbases—directly on Russia’s radar, increasing both the symbolic and potential physical exposure in a nuclear escalation scenario. What It Changes in Plain Terms The UK, which until now relied solely on Trident submarines for its nuclear deterrent, will once again host U.S. air-delivered warheads on its own soil. RAF Lakenheath and the new F-35A squadron signal an elevated role in NATO’s nuclear posture. This move heightens tensions in Europe and alters the strategic balance—making the UK part of a deterrence triangle, rather than passive supporter. For the first time in a generation, British airfields may be central launch points in a nuclear crisis—something reserved for Cold War planning…
Peter Oborne gives speech at anti war protest in London. ‘This is a war of aggression’, says Peter Oborne at Stop Bombing Iran protest in London Middle East Eye Speaking at a “Stop Bombing Iran” protest in London on Saturday, journalist and author Peter Oborne said the US and Israel’s war on Iran was “a war of aggression” under international law. Oborne also criticised UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer for allowing US bombers to use British bases and for failing to describe the war on Iran as a “criminal act”.

BBC report – plane spotters and locallers in Fairford. RAF Fairford B-1B bombers shake offices and startle dogs on way to NATO mission There are four US Air Force B-1B Lancers currently stationed at RAF Fairford People across Gloucestershire were surprised to hear a loud booming roar split the sky overhead as they came into work this morning, or for some four-legged friends, as they were settling into a mid-morning snooze. According to startled posts on social media, offices were shaken and dogs were startled as a pair of supersonic US heavy bombers passed overhead on a mission. They were just two of the four B-1B Lancer bombers currently stationed at RAF Fairford as part of a US Air Force deployment, which began landing on Thursday (October 12) ahead of their NATO mission. For their Bomber Task Force rotation they have been given fresh callsigns, which are also quite appropriate given the insane volume of their engines, HOWLER21 and HOWLER22. While some in Cheltenham heard the B-1Bs “howl” overhead just after 8.30am on their way to their mission, residents in Northleach, just 10 miles from RAF Fairford, reported hearing the distant booming sound of the plane’s pre-flight engine checks, which started around 7am. The US variable wing long-ranged bomber is considered to be the loudest plane in the entire Air Force. Each of the plane’s four engines is able to provide more than 30,000 pounds of thrust, with their ultra-loud afterburners which are used at takeoff. This in turn creates between 127 and 140 decibels of sustained noise, which for those on the ground, is the equivalent of standing next to a blaring siren, or having a firecracker go off next to your ear. Gen. James Hecker, commander of U.S. Air Forces in Europe said: “We’re not only demonstrating our commitment to collective defense but also strengthening our ability to respond to potential challenges. This underscores the enduring commitment of the United States to our Allies and partners.”
Suzie explains their Pilgrimage 4 Palestine which ended up in Parliament Square – they stayed in Mosques along the way. See Instagram and Facebook. Pilgrimage for Palestine … Pilgrimage for Palestine hit London Parliament Square on a hot 30th March at 2pm. There was amazement and some tears as we paused in Hyde Park, after thirteen days of walking, talking, poetry, generous hosts, massive support, huge donations, canals, rivers, injury, iftar, rapture, waking every day at 3.30am. We paused and waited for the Red Rebels. We being myself on foot, my wife Alice, Nick Bilbrough on bicycle (Hands Up Project founder,) Rowland Dye and Sue Luger, the support team, on foot/van. And a number of supporters who had joined us for the last leg. We moved closer to Parliament Square and waited for the Rebels. They appeared, moving very slowly as they do, as if in shock, dressed in Renaissance velvet red. We followed them into the square, traffic and sunlight and tourists and towers – and Palestinian flags. Right round went the rebels, and we followed, dazed and amazed, stopped at Winston Churchill and began to speak, as Zionists chanted and flung unspecified liquids. A drunk man took our side and wanted to attack them, and was gently diverted. I gave the key round my neck a last kiss and touched it to my forehead, then handed it to a girl in traditional Palestinian dress. This was the key I was given in Bristol by Feda Shahien on the 18th, thirteen days before, the day the sham ceasefire finally collapsed. All along the way it hung round my neck on a strip of cloth from a Palestinian shawl. It is the key to Feda’s grandmother’s house in Palestine, from which she was evicted by the Israelis (that part of history does not exist in Israel.) Once, in Reading, the key fell off. I was speaking at an event at the University, reading poems by Palestinian children collected by the Hands Up Project. The key untied itself from its cloth and fell to the floor, and the floor nearly gave way beneath my feet as I realised they key could have fallen off when I was walking along the canal and been lost. The Kennet and Avon canal rescued us from heavy roads all the way from Bath to Reading. Then the roads claimed us again for one hectic and racist day, when for a moment near Datchet I thought all was lost. Union Jacks everywhere, and a smooth guy rolled past, filming us, saying, ‘No thanks, not in Datchet.’ Then we picked up the Grand Union canal all the way to Paddington.
Donate to Hands Up project. ‘Shattered’ book by 16 year old Gazan girl. The Hands Up Project is committed to social justice, global citizenship, and freedom of expression, and upholds the belief that language learning is enhanced through creativity, performance and collaborative interaction. To these ends, the project affords opportunities for children in difficult circumstances, such as Palestine, to use English to communicate with one another across borders in a “spirit of peace, dignity, tolerance, freedom, equality and solidarity.” UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, 1989 Our international volunteers meet with classes in Palestine every day of the week to tell stories, play games and chat with students. We also run free teacher development courses for Palestinian teachers and free specialised courses on Remote theatre and other areas. In summer 2022 teachers joined free courses in Remote Theatre and how to use storytelling to help build students’ confidence in the language of science! Storytelling is at the heart of every culture and has always been at the heart of what we do . Whether it’s students sharing their traditional stories, or remote volunteers and young people sharing anecdotes from their daily lives, something extraordinary happens every time we meet. The world gets a little closer to us, our hearts become a little more open and our understanding stretches towards people we may never meet. Remote Theatre: We provide ongoing support to the drama clubs we helped to establish in schools all over Palestine. The clubs, and our annual playwriting competition have stimulated a brand new art form – remote theatre. Short plays written by the children are shared with the world in our SaturPLAY live sessions, published in our 3 books – “Toothbrush”, “Welcome to Earth” and “Popcorn” and performed live at special events . Because of the pandemic a new genre of remote theatre where the children perform through individual webcams ( Lockdown theatre ) has emerged. The 2021 competition featured a brand-new element – all the entries were international collaborations. We were really excited about seeing internationally produced plays and we weren’t disappointed. Palestinian students worked with students from as far afield as Venezuela, Pakistan, Mexico, Italy, El Salvador, Turkey and Romania. The three winning plays Welcome to Earth, I can smell her and One World, Different Stories were Palestinian collaborations with the Czech Republic, Argentina and Germany. The first place went to Welcome to Earth acted and produced by students in Palestine and the Czech Republic. As part of their prize they travelled to Belfast in the north of Ireland to meet each other for the first time and to convert their play into a face-to-face multimedia performance featuring dance and visual art. Finalists from 2018 & 2019 (over 100 children) left Gaza (a rare opportunity for the children to travel within their own country) to perform in The Palestinian National Theatre in Jerusalem, in Alrowad cultural centre in Bethlehem, and in The Freedom Theatre in Jenin. Overall winners also travelled to the UK to perform live in schools, theatres and at our annual conference. Now we’re looking forward to this year’s competition where the plays will be taken from Nick Bilbrough’s book “Doing Remote Theatre” and once again feature international collaboration.

Crusading Templar and War Secretary Pete Hegseth saying Trump anointed by Jesus. New crusades. Christians targeted by IDF. Pete Hegseth wanted an ‘American Crusade.’ Now he’s leading a war in the Middle East In the war the US launched on the Islamic Republic, the US secretary of war, as he prefers to be called, likes to talk about how the Christian God is on his side. During an interview with CBS News that aired Sunday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Iran should not doubt US resolve because it is backed by the higher power. “Our capabilities are better. Our will is better. Our troops are better. The providence of our almighty God is there protecting those troops, and we’re committed to this mission,” he said. The CBS reporter, Major Garrett, asked if Hegseth views the war from a religious context. “I mean, obviously, we’re fighting religious fanatics who seek a nuclear capability in order for some religious Armageddon.” Troops, he later added, “need a connection with their almighty God in these moments.” A couple of days later, not long after returning from a dignified transfer of soldiers killed in action, Hegseth quoted Psalm 144 at a Pentagon press conference: “Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.” Hegseth argues the US is a Christian nation Hegseth has long wanted to reprogram the country. “America was founded as a Christian nation,” he said at a recent National Prayer Breakfast. “It remains a Christian nation in our DNA, if we can keep it,” he added, splicing some religion onto a famous Benjamin Franklin quip about whether the US was a republic or a monarchy. “Not only are we warriors armed with the arsenal of freedom, we ultimately are armed with the arsenal of faith,” he said, adapting Franklin D. Roosevelt’s idea that the US should be the arsenal of democracy to his own religious worldview. Faith is tattooed on his chest Hegseth says one of his tattoos — a Jerusalem Cross, a religious symbol tied to the Crusades— led him to be labeled an extremist and disinvited from his unit’s detail to President Joe Biden’s inauguration in 2021. The imagery has roots in the Crusades, when European Christians tried to reclaim the Holy Land from Muslims. The term Deus Vult, “God Wills It,” is also tattooed on Hegseth’s body. In his 2020 book “American Crusade,” he describes the term as “the rallying cry of Christian knights as they marched to Jerusalem.”

Jet fuel doubled in price. BBC – Black Rock’s Larry Fink – extreme outcomes from present Iran war situation. Virgin issues huge airfare update after the cost of jet fuel doubled in a MONTH – as a major Aussie supermarket sounds the alarm Virgin will increase the price of domestic airfares by five per cent after the cost of fuel doubled in just one month amid the conflict in the Middle East. The move comes after Australia’s national carrier Qantas and its budget airline Jetstar said they would raise prices due to the effects of the war in Iran. ‘Costs across the aviation sector continue to rise, now significantly exacerbated by the situation in the Middle East,’ a Virgin spokesperson said in a statement. ‘We are making necessary fare adjustments to reflect these cost pressures.’ It’s understood domestic airfares will jump by five per cent, 9News reports. The increase will apply to both economy and business tickets. It comes after Qantas and Jetstar announced similar hikes last week. Qantas has not announced any changes to its domestic fares, with the airline to conduct fortnightly reviews into airfares. Meanwhile, Coles has also issued a similar price warning. The major supermarket said it would be conducting additional reviews of what it pays its transporters amid the soaring cost of fuel. Coles said it was ‘increasing the frequency that we review the fuel component of our freight rates from monthly to twice per month – so that changing fuel costs are reflected more quickly and fairly’. ‘In the current climate, this means transport providers will be able to recoup more of the rising fuel costs,’ a spokesman told the AFR.
Trump: the Insider Trader’s Perfect President: Unknown traders placed over half a billion in bets minutes before Trump claimed ‘productive’ talks with Iran: Report Open UK oil fields? Sky – large trading volumes on oil 15 minutes before Trump gives statement on Truth Social. Trump speech on how they’re winning. The White House dismissed rumours of insider trading among officials, calling them ‘baseless and irresponsible’ Traders placed more than $500 million in oil bets just minutes before US President Donald Trump claimed talks were happening with Iran and that he was postponing his planned strikes on the Islamic Republic’s power infrastructure, according to the Financial Times (FT). Fifteen minutes before the announcement, a large burst of activity on online markets took place. Over 6,000 Brent and WTI futures contracts changed hands between 6:49 am and 6:50 am in New York in a one-minute flurry worth $580 million, FT reported, citing data from Bloomberg. Volumes in both benchmarks surged simultaneously. Trump’s post was made at 7:04 am and sparked a significant sell-off in energy markets. “It’s hard to prove causality … but you have to wonder who would have been relatively aggressive at selling futures at that point, 15 minutes before Trump’s post,” a broker strategist told FT. According to the report, the timing has raised questions about the trades and who might be benefiting from them. “The only focus of President Trump and Trump administration officials is doing what’s best for the American people,” a White House spokesperson said, calling rumors of insider trading among officials “baseless and irresponsible.” “The White House does not tolerate any administration official illegally profiteering off insider knowledge.” Tehran quickly came out in response to the announcement, denying that any talks took place and vowing to continue fighting. Trump claimed he was speaking to a “top” official, and that talks were “very productive.” According to trading platform Unusual Whales, S&P 500 futures worth $1.5 billion were bought, and oil futures worth $192 million were sold. The FT report comes as concerns have grown about insider trading on platforms such as Polymarket, both in the US and Israel. On 2 March, four days after the start of the US-Israeli war on Iran, Hebrew media reported that Israeli police opened an investigation into a Polymarket account that accurately forecast the 28 February strikes. The Polymarket user, under the name “Magamyman,” reportedly earned about $430,000 by predicting that the US would strike Iran on 28 February. According to Globes, roughly $529 million was bet on when the war would begin, with $90 million riding on 28 February. In mid-February, an Israeli man and an army reservist were indicted on charges of using sensitive, classified information to place bets about military operations. Polymarket is being increasingly used to bet on wars and military operations, sparking concern among some lawmakers that insider information used to place bets could harm national security. In June last year, a user under the name ricosuave666 made several highly accurate bets about the Israeli war on Iran that month, wagering tens of thousands and making a profit of about $150,000. More recently, another user made $400,000 dollars betting on a US assault on Venezuela, just hours before the illegal kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was ordered by Trump.
Mark Rutte, NATO, speech – difficult questions from journalists. Alan Jones, a listener living in China, gives an insight in to life there. ‘Stronger Than Ever’: NATO Chief After Trump Accuses Alliance Of ‘Doing Nothing’ On Iran War Mark Rutte defends NATO against Donald Trump, citing missile interceptions for Turkey and security in the Strait of Hormuz amid Iran conflict tensions. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on Wednesday pushed back against criticism from US President Donald Trump, saying the military alliance is “stronger today than it has ever been” despite Trump’s accusation that it had done “nothing” to help during the conflict with Iran. Speaking while presenting NATO’s annual report, Rutte defended the alliance’s role in the ongoing crisis and highlighted its recent military actions in the region. According to Rutte, NATO intercepted three ballistic missiles headed toward Turkey during the conflict and is also working to ensure that the Strait of Hormuz remains safe for international shipping. His remarks came shortly after Trump posted on Truth Social, where he criticised NATO and suggested the United States would not forget the alliance’s lack of support during the Iran conflict. The exchange exposed fresh tensions between Washington and its European allies at a time when the war in West Asia continues to test international military coordination. advertisement While countering Trump’s criticism, Rutte also took care to praise the US president for pushing NATO member states to increase their defence spending. The former Dutch prime minister said such budget increases would likely not have happened without pressure from the current US administration. Rutte also acknowledged that the US had reasons to keep its strikes on Iran confidential in the initial phase of the conflict, but said the secrecy meant that European allies needed time to “get organized” in response. His comments suggest that while NATO was not directly involved in the opening phase of military operations, the alliance has since taken on a more active role in securing allied territory and critical maritime routes.
The Cradle – article – China says chaos in middle east.
Warren Thornton, former UK military, joins Tony and Martin live from the Philippines. He has his own daily podcast on Patreon. War in Iran. Infiltration of Iranian protests. Russia giving Iran S-300 and S-400 air defence systems. 17,500 US troops heading to Strait of Hormuz. Flawed plan for war. Ukraine war – 1300 Ukrainian soldiers lost per day. Iranian Strikes Have Destroyed $2.7 Billion Worth of High Value U.S. Anti-Missile Radars The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has destroyed $2.7 billion worth of high value radar systems during the first week of engagements with U.S. forces, after the Corps responded to U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran from February 28 by launching large scale missile and drone strikes on key military and strategic targets across the Middle East. Although strikes on multiple radar systems of varying value have been reported, including lower value radars such as the AN/TPS-59 valued at around $70 million, three of the U.S. Armed Forces’ most high value radar systems are confirmed to have been destroyed. The most significant loss was the AN/FPS-132 radar, a long-range ballistic missile early-warning radar intended to form part of the outermost layer of U.S. missile defences, detecting launches up to 5,000 kilometres away, and able to track hundreds of targets simultaneously and provide precision trajectory prediction for ballistic missiles.The AN/FPS-132 is relied on heavily to provide cueing data to missile defence systems, as well as early warning to allow personnel and civilians to find shelter. Each radar costs an estimated $1.1 billion, with U.S. sources estimating that it will take five to eight years to replace the one destroyed. The sole radar of its kind in outside the United States first became operational in Qatar in 2013, with the specific purpose of countering the Iranian and Syrian ballistic missile arsenals, the latter which was neutralised after the government in Damascus was toppled in December 2024. Despite general efforts to downplay the successes of Iranian strikes, reporting by U.S. sources has indicated the the destruction of the AN/FPS-132 on February 28 degraded missile-warning capabilities in the region because such radars are rare and hard to replace. The fact that the system was singled out and prioritised for targeting in the opening hours of hostilities indicated that doing so may well have been seen as a force multiplier for subsequent ballistic missile attacks.
The Brookings Institute, Road to Persia paper – US aid to Ukraine transferred to middle east. Which Path to Persia? Which Path to Persia? Options for a New Strategy Towards Iran By Kenneth Pollack, Suzanne Maloney, Daniel Byman, Michael O’Hanlon, Martin Indyk and Bruce Riedel Brookings Institution Press, £16.99, 229 pages If you woke up this morning wondering how best to attack Iran, this book provides your answer. At the start of a US invasion, marines would secure a bridgehead, then occupy a port and launch the push for Tehran. An American bombing campaign against Iranian nuclear facilities would need fewer resources but would still be extensive and take several days. An Israeli strike, however, would have to rely on just one round of attacks due to the difficulty of flying over neighbouring states. These are three of the more startling scenarios examined in Which Path to Persia?, in which experts at Washington’s Brookings Institution address a perennial foreign policy problem: how to handle Iran. The think-tank writers analyse the options open to the Obama administration – and find all unpalatable. The blood of realpolitik courses through the book; some readers may find it bracing, others offensive. “Meddling in the internal politics of another country requires excellent intelligence if the efforts are to succeed,” reports a section on how to help inculcate a velvet revolution (note that three of the authors previously worked at the CIA). “Coups are typically more successful and easier to instigate and assist from abroad than popular revolutions,” adds the chapter on military takeovers. “It would be far more preferable if the US could cite an Iranian provocation as justification,” reads the section on airstrikes. This book is written by some top US experts on the Middle East. It would be an injustice to the authors, however, to pretend that this is a mere “How To” text for unseating the ayatollahs or an exercise in fantasy regime change. Instead, Which Path to Persia? is a glorious example of the think-tanker’s art. There is not a single striking metaphor or turn of phrase in the text; it proudly boasts that it was written by committee.
The Cradle – Iran gulf bases to rubble. Israeli Chief of Staff – army at point of collapse. Israeli chief of staff warns army on verge of ‘collapse’ amid troop shortage Netanyahu’s government has been unable to force the ultra-Orthodox into military service despite the multiple ongoing wars The Israeli army’s chief of staff, Eyal Zamir, warned on 25 March that the military is “going to collapse in on itself” after failing to pass a law to recruit soldiers among the ultra-Orthodox (Haredim) and to extend military mandatory service to 36 months. “The reserves will not last, I am raising 10 red flags,” Zamir stated in an interview with Channel 13. The warning comes as Israel’s military is fighting wars against Gaza, Iran, and Lebanon – where Israeli troops are engaged in a ground campaign to conquer and annex Lebanon’s south. Unless the existing law is changed, the duration of compulsory service is set to decrease to 30 months in January 2027, despite a shortage of many thousands of soldiers. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet has found it politically difficult to continue to extend mandatory military service while at the same time exempting tens of thousands of ultra-Orthodox men from conscription into the army. Left-wing and secular Israelis are angry that the Haredim are not required to share the burden of participating in the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza and expanding the borders of “Greater Israel” in Lebanon. Zamir made the comments during a cabinet meeting attended by the prime minister, heads of the defense establishment, and ministers. “In a short time, the IDF will not be prepared for its routine mission. The reservists will not last,” the chief of staff told attendees. “The reserves are being eroded. The law needs to be regulated, more reserves are needed, and the tasks are only growing. Maintaining these areas requires reserves, there have been gaps for a long time,” an army source added.
Volkswagen to produce Iron Dome parts for Israel. Volkswagen in talks to produce parts for Israel’s missile defence system, FT reports German car giant with Nazi-era V-1 roots, pivots to defence production as the industry struggles to compete with China Volkswagen is considering plans to convert one of its German car factories into a production hub for Israel’s missile defence systems, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday. The carmaker has held talks with Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defense Systems about repurposing its Osnabruck plant, shifting from vehicle production to manufacturing components for Israel’s Iron Dome system. The move underscores growing pressure on Germany’s automotive sector, which is struggling to compete with Chinese electric vehicle makers. It also carries historical resonance: during the Second World War, Volkswagen halted car production and switched to arms manufacturing for Nazi Germany. The proposal points to a wider shift, as parts of German industry move closer to defence production with support from Berlin. Under the plan, the factory would produce key Iron Dome components, including launch platforms, power units and heavy-duty vehicles used to transport missile systems. Production could begin within 12 to 18 months with limited new investment. Germany has ramped up military spending and deepened defence ties with Israel, cementing its role as one of its strongest European backers. In December, Berlin approved a $3.1bn deal to purchase Israel’s Arrow 3 missile defence system, following a $3.5bn agreement two years earlier. Together, the contracts mark Israel’s largest arms sale to date, worth more than $6.6bn. The deals boost Israel’s defence industry as it faces growing international isolation over its war on Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant are wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Germany supplies about 30 percent of Israel’s imported weapons, second only to the United States, which accounts for nearly 60 percent. Meanwhile, South Africa’s case at the International Court of Justice accuses Israel of genocide in Gaza. The court has recognised a plausible risk of genocide, placing legal obligations on states not to support Israel’s actions.
J D Vance – Iran nuclear suicide vest. Marco Rubio dangerous. Nuclear war? Vance Claims Iran Could Make Nuclear Suicide Vest Vice President JD Vance on Thursday attempted to justify the continued US-Israeli war against Iran by implying that Iran could potentially turn a nuclear bomb into a suicide vest, a claim not grounded in reality. Vance made the claim during a cabinet meeting while discussing military and diplomatic “options” that the US has regarding the conflict with Iran. He has continued to portray the war as being necessary to prevent Iran from making a nuclear weapon, though there was no evidence that Tehran had decided to build a bomb either before the June 2025 war or the current war that was launched on February 28. “What we have now that we didn’t have when the president took over, just a little over a year ago, is the ability to use every tool at our disposal to ensure that Iran doesn’t get a nuclear weapon,” Vance said. “Because when I say options, I think it’s important the American people know options for what? And it’s options to ensure that Iran never has a nuclear weapon,” the vice president added. “You talk about people who walk into a crowded supermarket and have a vest on, and they blow up the vest and a couple of people get killed, and that’s a terrible tragedy. What happens when what’s on the vest is not something that can kill a couple of people, but can kill many, many tens of thousands of people?” A nuclear bomb could not be miniaturized to the point where it could be worn as a vest, and if Vance was alluding to a “dirty bomb” that uses some nuclear material, such a weapon at that size would not cause tens of thousands of casualties (and likely in the ‘dirty bomb’ scenario the wearer would die or become incapacitated from the radiation). Plus, in recent decades, the overwhelming majority of suicide bombings in the region were carried out by Sunni Muslim extremists, not Iran and its Shia allies. Before the US and Israel launched the war, Vance became one of the leading voices in the administration, making the claim that the coming conflict was about preventing Iran from developing a nuclear bomb, contradicting President Trump’s insistence that US airstrikes in June 2025 “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear program. At one point, Vance even claimed there was evidence Iran was trying to “rebuild a nuclear weapon,” something Iran has never had.
Child 18 months old tortured by Israelis. What is Philippines like, and is there an energy emergency? Israeli army tortures a Palestinian toddler in Gaza in front of his father, family says An 18-month-old toddler in Gaza was returned by the Israeli army to his family with burn marks and puncture wounds on his legs. Doctors say the wounds are clearly the result of torture while the child was detained with his father. The marks on the child’s legs appear unmistakable. Round burn marks, as if from cigarette butts, as well as puncture wounds. His pants have the same two holes, and they are stained with blood. This was the state in which 18-month-old Jawad Abu Nasser was returned to his family in Gaza by the Israeli army. In video testimony for Mondoweiss, Waad al-Shafi, 19, from the Maghazi area in central Gaza, holds her son and lifts his legs and feet toward the camera. According to the family, the toddler was subjected to severe torture by the Israeli army. They say that the Israelis had put out cigarettes on his legs and punctured them with sharp objects. “Here is where his foot was pierced, and here is where cigarettes were put out on him,” Jawad’s mother says, holding his feet as she points to each injury. “And here’s another wound. And another.” The family says they suspect that Jawad’s torture could have been an attempt to pressure his father into providing information, and they also believe that he was likely there while the soldiers carried out the abuse of his son. “After they examined him, the doctors concluded that the marks on his legs were clearly the result of torture,” says Muhammad Abu Nassar, gradfather of 18-month-old Jawad. ‘Both of them were being tortured together’ Waad al-Shafi says Osama Abu Nassar, her husband and Jawad’s father, left home carrying their son to buy him sweets from a nearby shop. Instead, he mistakenly headed east toward the “Yellow Line,” the invisible border cutting the Gaza Strip roughly in half as part of the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. The family lost contact with him at around 10 a.m. and heard nothing until 8 p.m. that same day, March 19. She adds that her husband had been experiencing severe psychological distress in recent weeks and was not in stable condition.

Craig Murray – Iran has no track record of attacking ambulances. Pro Zionist police force in North London. Man who confronted Al Jazeera journalists was Met Police special constable David Soffer told members of the Al Jazeera team to “go back to Qatar” A man who confronted a team of journalists working for Al Jazeera during an altercation after the Golders Green ambulance attacks was a volunteer Metropolitan Police officer. The crew of journalists were reporting on an arson attack which targeted Hatzola ambulances – a Jewish community-run service – on Monday when they were confronted by a group of people telling them to leave the area. One of the individuals has been identified as David Soffer, a Met Police special constable, as first reported by Declassified UK then confirmed by the BBC. He was seen calling one of the team “you donkey, you dog” in Arabic. The Met has referred the incident to its professional standards team for assessment. Videos from the scene show a group of people from the Jewish community shouting: “Go home” and “Al Jazeera off our streets”. Reporters from the Press Association also heard the journalists called “terrorist sympathisers”. Soffer, who is also a technology businessman, then arrived and told them to “go back to Qatar”. In Arabic, he continued: “Go from here you donkey… go from here you donkey, you dog”. He then called one of the team a dog again and, in Hebrew, he and one of the Al Jazeera staff then call each other donkeys. At one stage, Soffer warned another person next to him to not be violent. When he was told to calm down, he insisted he was calm. A female reporter told Soffer “shame on you” after she believed he suggested that she was an antisemite. He told her he could define his own racism. Soffer then told them no Jewish person was going to hurt the team but no one was going to talk to them. BBC News has contacted Soffer and Al Jazeera for comment…
C4 News – Russian ambassador saying Iran stronger than US thought. US has underestimated Iran, says Russian ambassador Channel 4 News Are higher oil prices and the temporary lifting of sanctions welcome news for Russia? Their budget deficit has been soaring out of control, but the rising price of Russian crude is bringing billions of pounds a month in extra revenue. It means Moscow can keep financing its war in Ukraine despite record numbers of military casualties. [for Ukraine, ed.] Ukraine was targeted by more than 1,000 Russian drones on Tuesday, damaging UNESCO-protected heritage sites in the western city of Lviv, killing 7 people, including a child. And on Wednesday morning, 9 people were injured when drones hit two residential areas in the eastern city of Kharkiv. Cathy Newman spoke to the Russian Ambassador to the UK, Andrey Kelin, and I began by asking him whether Russia would
Netanyahu saying Jesus couldn’t win against Genghis Khan.The C18 British Empire was larger than the C13 Mongol Empire ‘Evil will overcome good…’: Netanyahu’s ‘Jesus vs Genghis Khan’ quote sparks global backlash. Here is what he said Benjamin Netanyahu made a controversial statement in his Thursday night address by comparing Jesus Christ and Genghis Khan, and suggesting that the former is weaker. He later issued a clarification, stating those were not his words. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu caused a major furore on Thursday night when he said “Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan” in a televised address. He has now issued a clarification, saying he “did not denigrate Jesus Christ” and that he was merely quoting historian Will Durant, Times of Israel reported. “History proves that, unfortunately and unhappily, Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan. Because if you are strong enough, ruthless enough, powerful enough, evil will overcome good. Aggression will overcome moderation,” Netanyahu said in the address. He quickly faced backlash for his choice of words, with critics slamming him for suggesting that those who possess the most power determine what is “right.” The PM responded in an X post, “A fervent admirer of Jesus Christ, Durant stated that morality by itself is not enough to ensure survival,” the post reads. “A morally superior civilisation may still fall to a ruthless enemy if it does not have the power to defend itself.”

March 2020 – BCfm’s weekly Politics Show presented by Tony Gosling with Irish Republican Labour activist Martin Summers was forced off FM, now online only by station manager Pat Hart. He decided the show should be ‘rested, due to the pandemic’ on 24 March 2020 and then refused to communicate at all when we requested to do the show remotely. Bristol Community FM (BCfm) charity ‘CEO’ Patrick Hart is a longtime personal friend of Bristol’s all-powerful right-wing ‘Labour’ mayor Marvin Rees. Now on Internet only NOT The BCfm Politics Show is available 17:00-c. 21:00 live on Fridays. Pat Hart replaced us with an inane student show repeating MSM stories called The Bristol Agenda.

February 2019 – Ofcom complaint result: UKLFI exposed as creation of Israeli foreign ministry – Bristol Post article: BCfm cleared after being reported to Ofcom for anti-semitic conspiracy theories – It could have resulted in BCfm radio station being shut down if the complaint was upheld Tony Gosling reported to Ofcom by UK Lawyers for Israel after being accused of anti-semitism A Bristol radio station, which had one of its programmes reported for anti-semitism and racism has been cleared by Ofcom. The radio regulatory body received a complaint from “UK Lawyers for Israel’ over a show on BCfm radio, hosted by investigative journalist Tony Gosling. The weekly politics show, on the popular community radio station based in Easton, was reported for several allegations on a show which aired on November 23. Tony Gosling, who was a former BBC journalist between 1989 and 1993, has been producing and presenting ‘The Tony Gosling Politics’ show every week on BCFM radio for 11 years. They have released a statement which reads: “Whilst we are supportive of all our volunteer presenters, The Tony Gosling Politics Show only represents approximately ten percent of our political output content wise, and less than two per cent of our entire weekly output.” Mr Gosling’s programme looks at local politics and he interviews a range of councillors and MPs in the city. The show is also perhaps more well known for its alternative look at international politics, and he has a cult following online from across the world. Mr Gosling has made regular appearances on national media including the politics show with Andrew Neil on BBC One, and international channels such as Russia Today, Channel1 Russia, NTV, and recently for both Turkish and Lebanon TV.
November 2012 – Tony gets death threats on the phone from the Jewish Defence League – ‘you’re a dead man walking’ – a man calls him and Tony records the call. Audio of UK Jewish Defence League (JDL) death threat against British journalist Tony Gosling (2012) – Avon and Somerset police Special Branch investigate, trace the caller, and after six months report to Tony that the individual has been served a caution that they will proceed with a prosecution for harassment under the 1861 offences against the person act. Seems pretty clear this death threat was issued alongside the lies, copied below, which were published on their blog by London based UK JDL in November 2012. Firstly Tony Gosling is not a ‘homophobe’. That accusation was first made in an article published by the ‘Harry’s Place’ blog, penned by Zionist David Toube and propelled by him anonymously into Private Eye in 2008. It refers to Gosling’s criticism of senior teachers at Bannerman Road Primary school in Bristol who used homosexual early learning picture books against the express wishes of the parent governors. His criticism was about the deception by teaching staff not because of the homosexual content of the books. Secondly, if you follow the JDL link you’ll find what Tony Gosling actually says about the ‘Protocols Of The Learned Elders Of Zion’ says “…I don’t think there is much doubt that the Protocols are fake…” Thirdly he is not a member of Bristol Palestine Solidarity Campaign and has never been to any of their meetings.
Autumn 2014 – Tony’s documentary production and distribution business shut down by its bank. Our thriving Co-op business bank account ordered closed for undisclosed reasons. Tony Gosling and Ben Edwards founded i-Contact Video Network to distribute documentaries on VHS video and DVD and to make their own documentaries as well as attend news events and sell video footage to TV news channels. Amongst the films we distributed were Operation Solstice, Coconut Revolution, Mark Purdey and Organophosphates, McLibel, 9/11 In Plane Site, Ludicrous Diversion and The Battle of Trafalgar. These, plus books, and even a board game about drug dealing ‘Dollars and Dibble’, were all available via mail order and we supplied libraries around the world too. The bank had clearly been ordered to investigate us for money laundering, although they never admitted it. All the questions they asked Ben and I were about proving our identity through passports etc.. When we did, yet more letters kept arriving demanding more proofs, birth certificates etc. and eventually when one of us missed supplying the required information, within a week or so of being asked, the account was summarily closed and we got a cheque made out to one of us with the few hundred pounds that was in the business bank account. Since neither of us could get a business bank account up and running for at least a few months and the bank account meant nobody could any longer use the website, we made the reluctant decision to shut it down. Thus was a thriving business killed off by the Co_operative bank. Having said that, co-op were not quite the worst. We did apply to open an account at Bristol’s ‘ethical’ Triodos bank, who proceeded to string us along for several months and then said our business was too risky for them to provide an account!
