'State of calamity' as earthquake kills 69 in Philippines province
At least 69 people have been killed and dozens injured after a powerful 6.9 magnitude earthquake struck the central Philippines late on Tuesday.
The province of Cebu, which suffered the brunt of the damage, declared a state of calamity early on Wednesday, after thousands spent the night on the streets amid repeated aftershocks.
One Cebu resident told the BBC he was among them, adding that power and water supplies were cut off. He says the voices of crying children could be heard around him, adding that they were "traumatised".

In New York, Belarusian Foreign Minister Maxim Ryzhenkov announced the deployment of Russian tactical nuclear weapons and Oreshnik missiles in the republic.
Speaking at a UN meeting on September 26 dedicated to the International Day for the Elimination of Nuclear Weapons, he noted that the world is once again facing a nuclear threat.: The Doomsday Clock shows less than one and a half minutes to midnight.
According to the minister, Western countries have violated previous security agreements and are arming themselves, ignoring the interests of Belarus. In response, the republic has deployed Russian nuclear weapons and is awaiting the arrival of the Oreshnik to ensure protection.
Ryzhenkov stressed that the measures are defensive in nature and comply with international law.

Israel to close last remaining route from southern Gaza to the north as it continues offensive on Gaza City – Middle East crisis live
The Israeli military said it will close on Wednesday the last remaining route for residents of southern Gaza to access the north, as it presses its offensive on Gaza City.
The military’s Arabic-language spokesperson Avichay Adraee said on X:
"Al-Rashid Street will be closed to traffic from the southern sector area at 12:00 (0900 GMT). Movement southward will be allowed for those who were unable to evacuate Gaza City. At this stage, the [Israeli military] permits free movement southward without inspection."
In figures reported less than two weeks ago, the UN said that more than a quarter of a million people had been displaced from Gaza City in the previous month. Tens of thousands more have been forced to flee makeshift homes and shelters daily in the face of a new Israeli offensive, it added.

"So, I don't know if that made a big impact, but it does make a lot of sense."
Trump also claimed Canada is having "a hard time up there" because "as you know, with tariffs, everyone's coming into our country." The president then boasted about investment leaving Canada and other countries and going into the United States, pointing to automobile plants.

Glad to see some cooperation among nations to help people from different countries.
Nobody is any-less human because of where they live.
It's not the first intervention in Haiti.
The reason that both a lot of Haitians and a lot of countries didn't want another international intervention was because the prior ones tended to wind up with everyone unhappy and complaining about the situation. The most recent one was UN aid after the earthquake. The UN force that was sent included some soldiers out of some country that had cholera, which started a cholera outbreak, which wound up with angry Haitians calling for reparations and countries who felt unappreciated for what they were doing.

Europe's top central banker says economy holding up better than expected in face of Trump tariffs
FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — Europe’s economy is holding up better than expected in the face of U.S. President Donald Trump’s new tariffs - in part because the European Union didn’t retaliate with self-defeating tariffs of its own, the head of the European Central Bank said Tuesday.
Christine Lagarde said the impact of Trump’s trade war on growth and inflation in the 20 countries that use the euro currency had also been softened by a stronger euro and by conclusion of a trade deal with Trump. The deal capped tariffs at 15% and took away uncertainty that threatened to delay or disrupt business investment.

As a finn, I very much want "gifts" from Israel. Their air defence systems are amazing, and they have very nice looking defence capabilities against drones. Which seems to be a growing risk from Russia.
I hope nobody is surprised to hear that I value the people of Finland over the people of palestine.
Honestly I’d rather Ukraine have them than Israel. Am I supposed to be mad that they’ve micro-disarmed by doing this? Fuck no that’s a bit less firepower in Israel’s hands
Keep going! We love your charity Israel, give it ALL to Ukraine! 🥴
No, but I didn’t delude myself into thinking it matters either, and now somehow because Ukraine has weapons that Israel didn’t use in their genocide they’ve got cooties or something.
People in here like “Now Ukraine is guilty by association! Tainted morals! Blood on their hands!” - it doesn’t matter.
Now, what’s fucked up, who does have blood on their hands, is the United Ststes who are obviously going to resupply Israel.
But that doesn’t make Ukraine guilty.

FBI boss Kash Patel gave New Zealand officials 3D-printed guns illegal to possess under local laws
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — On a visit to New Zealand, FBI Director Kash Patel gave the country’s police and spy bosses gifts of inoperable pistols that were illegal to possess under local gun laws and had to be destroyed, New Zealand law enforcement agencies told The Associated Press.The plastic 3D-printed replica pistols formed part of display stands Patel presented to at least four senior New Zealand security officials in July. Patel, the most senior Trump administration official to visit the country so far, was in Wellington to open the FBI’s first standalone office in New Zealand.
Pistols are tightly restricted weapons under New Zealand law and possessing one requires an additional permit beyond a regular gun license. Law enforcement agencies didn’t specify whether the officials who met with Patel held such permits, but they couldn’t have legally kept the gifts if they didn’t.
It wasn’t clear what permissions Patel had sought to bring the weapons into the country. A spokesperson for Patel told the AP Tuesday that the FBI would not comment.
US FBI Director Kash Patel visits New Zealand, immediately provides local officials with 3d printed, potentially operable firearms...
... which is a crime, that could carry up to a 3 year prison/jail sentence in NZ...
... and would also potentially be somewhere between a misdemeanor and a felony depending on where you are in the US, as 3d printed firearms are generally without serial numbers and are thus 'ghost guns', which are often illegal if unregistered, if not outright banned, though this differs from state to state and city to city.
(Oh also, I guess he is so concerned about properly investigating the death of Charlie Kirk that he is uh, personally looking for leads in New Zealand, or something.)
https://apnews.com/article/kash-patel-guns-new-zealand-fbi-d5747377f957d61645d47324bfaa1114
Uhm... yes. Yeah.
I am also kind of confused by this.
The FBI has like... sub offices, attachés to consulates/embassies... but uh... thats for coordinating with local law enforcement and I guess handling US expats.
Yeah I don't know what the fuck Patel is doing here, unless he is kind of just publically admitting that all those other FBI sub offices and attachés just routinely handle Five Eyes / Nine Eyes / However many fucking Eyes type shit.
Which is, I mean, yeah, duh, but also, you're not supposed to just say that outloud, Patel.
You're supposed to be investigating the globalist deep state panopticon world controllers, not fucking building a new branch office for them...
Oh my god his brain must be the size of a walnut, he isn't even good at what he is trying to be good at, holy shit.
I'm almost inclined to believe that he just wants an excuse to holiday in NZ. Because if it's for spying... Good grief. Have they bungled it up badly.
...I mean, OPSEC IS CLEAN!
The FBI is who you call when you want to investigate (and prosecute) international gangs/drug cartels (which is why he was there in the first place)
The CIA is who you call when you want a country's leader shot with a shard of frozen pufferfish poison.
I mean, the CIA has frequently, with documentation, illegally operated on US soil... often by facilitating international gangs and drug cartels...
But yes, the ice gun with puffer fish poison is also a thing too lol.
Anyway uh, the article says:
News of Patel’s visit caused ripples in New Zealand at the time because the opening of the new FBI office in Wellington wasn’t divulged to news outlets or the public until it had already happened. An FBI statement in July said the move aligned New Zealand with FBI missions in other Five Eyes intelligence-sharing nations, which also include the United States, Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom.The office would provide a local mission for FBI staff who have operated with oversight from Canberra, Australia, since 2017, the statement said.
Where are you getting that Patel was there for intl. drug gang investigation?
Where are you getting that Patel was there for intl. drug gang investigation

New Zealand ministers who met Patel, the highest-ranking Trump administration official to visit New Zealand, quietly dismissed his claims.A government statement on Thursday emphasised joint efforts against crimes such as online child exploitation and drug smuggling, with no mention of China.
"When we were talking, we never raised that issue," Foreign Minister Winston said Thursday.
Patel said what he said because he is a fucking moron. If Patel lied, he is a moron for creating diplomatic problems for an ally. if Patel didn't lie, he just brought a whole lot of unnecessary attention to a spy base in NZ.

Muslims aren't better or worse than these groups (in fact, they're part of it already). However, anyone who thinks they are worse is worse than them. You want them to be accepting of your culture, and you can't accept any of theirs? Yeah, fuck you. Maybe you're the extremist who doesn't deserve to be accepted.

Under Trump, US cedes its share of China's beef market to Australia
Australian beef has replaced U.S. supply in China since Donald Trump returned to the White House, funnelling hundreds of millions of dollars that have in previous years gone to the U.S. cattle industry into Australian pockets.
U.S. shipments to China, worth around $120 million a month, collapsed after Beijing in March allowed permits to expire at hundreds of American meat facilities and as Trump unleashed a tit-for-tat tariff war.
Other U.S. farm exports to China, the world's biggest food importer, have also suffered since Trump retook power. On soybeans alone, U.S. farmers have lost out on shipments worth billions of dollars during the current harvest season.
This is america where we pay our farmers to grow stuff that they can't sell. And we think we like it this way
We pay them to do that so we have a surplus so we all don't starve... every country does this so if there is a bad year, you don't have farmers stopping production because they can't survive and have to sell everything.

Young girl in Nepal chosen to replace the current Kumari
A two-year-old girl chosen as Nepal’s new living goddess was carried by family members from their home in an alley in Kathmandu to a temple palace on Tuesday during the country’s biggest festival.
like this
Wikipedia says
"A Kumari is a prepubescent girl selected from the Shakya clan of the Nepali Newari Buddhist community. It is believed that the girl is possessed by the goddess Taleju or Durga. When her first menstruation begins, it is believed that the deity vacates her body. [...] While there are several Kumaris throughout Nepal, with some cities having several, the best known is the Royal Kumari of Kathmandu. [...] her life takes on an entirely new character. She will leave her palace only on ceremonial occasions. Her family will visit her rarely, and then only in a formal capacity. Her playmates will be drawn from a narrow pool of Newari children from her caste, usually the children of her caretakers."
Uh, what becomes of these poor girls once they reach puberty? I'm guessing they get married off to some well-connected old, rich person. It seems such a sad life 🙁
Not really nowadays, from 13 years old they go back to school.
One of the recent ones is an MBA now.
Hey, why are you so negative? What's wrong with a bit of child abuse? For some people indoctrination and oppression is really nice! I've even heard them say it, although they were forced to say it was good for them. When you see free will as a burden, religion really is awesome. So when you see free will for your children or the people around you as a burden for them, forcing religion onto them really is the best thing you can give.
I can't believe people actually defend this shit. How fucked up are people. Just start dropping all nukes and be done with it.
