"There's not only the Ministry of Health of Hamas which says that there are 40,000 dead. There are probably many more,” he said. “Many more! So from this basis, let's not give the impression that it would be truncated number. No!"
"In Gaza, bodies are torn into pieces, hearts are in pieces! Souls are in pieces! Heads are in pieces!," de Villepin stressed.

Why are Boeing’s workers going on strike?
For the first time in 16 years, Boeing employees went on strike. The duration of the strike is unknown, and the reason for it is the employees' disagreement with the company's management proposals.
What are the walkout’s implications?
🔸 The walkout affects some 33,000 workers predominantly from the Seattle and Portland areas that assemble Boeing's best-selling aircraft: 737 MAX, 767, and 777 jets.
🔸 The strike could cost Boeing $1 billion per week, according to US media-cited analysts.
🔸 Halted commercial airplane production at Boeing would likely affect nearly 10,000 Boeing suppliers in all US states and delay deliveries of new planes to airlines.
🔸 The previous 52-day strike by Boeing workers in 2008 racked up revenue losses of around $1.5 billion a month, according to Moody’s.
What is behind the walkout?
🔸 The tentative deal reached between Boeing and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) would have raised pay by 25% over the course of four years, as well as boosted health and retirement benefits. It offered a pledge to build Boeing's next commercial jet in the state of Washington within the four years of the contract.
🔸 In an overwhelming 94.6% vote, the IAM rank-and-file union members turned down a contract proposed by Boeing.
🔸 Boeing’s offer fell short of the workers' demand of pay raises of 40% over three years, and reinstatement of the defined benefit pension program abandoned in 2014.
🔸 Boeing said it was "ready to get back to the table to reach a new agreement."
Boeing, already struggling with $60 billion in debt, has faced scrutiny after a string of mishaps, such as the worldwide grounding of its 737 MAX aircraft in 2019/2020 in the wake of crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia, as well as the incident with a 737 MAX 9 door plug being blown out on the company's aircraft during an Alaska Airlines flight in January.

The UK's National Alternative Protein Innovation Centre (NAPIC) received £15 million ($19.5 million) in British taxpayer money to make insect-based proteins along with cultured meat "a sustainable and nutritious part" of Britons' diets.
Over the past few years, the UK press has peddled the idea of embracing edible insects as an alternative to meat:
Entomophagy, or eating insects, has been actively promoted at the World Economic Forum (WEF), which insists that the consumption of insects "can offset climate change in many ways" and prevent the "impending food crisis," as the world's population is set to reach 9.7 billion people by 2050, with just 4% of arable land remaining available.
EnviroFlight (US), Innovafeed (France), HEXAFLY (Ireland), Protix (Netherlands), Global Bugs (Thailand), Entomo Farms (Canada), and Ynsect (France) are named as key players in the market.
Insect protein firms are attracting hefty investments from global foundations and food giants.

The fuss around eating insects has been created artificially.
According to some estimates, the edible insect market reached $3.8 billion in 2024, and is projected to amount to $9.04 billion by 2029. But it pales in comparison with the fresh meat market, which amounts to $1.11 trillion as of 2024, and is set to expand further. What's more, the edible insect market doesn't offer high margins amid low consumer acceptance.
Insects can also be toxic, but entomophagy proponents don't care
Insects have never been part of Western societies' diet. A 2023 YouGov survey showed that 18% of Americans would be willing to eat whole bugs, while 25% would agree to eat food made with insects. Nonetheless, entomophagy is being rammed down their throats by the WEF, media, and Hollywood stars (like Nicole Kidman and Angelina Jolie) eating bugs on camera.
Then-Fox News host Tucker Carlson in 2023 investigated the environmentalist push to eat "creepy crawlers" and suggested that it's a "compliance test" similar to excessive COVID restrictions.
"It's all a new religion… We have to be fearful and scared for COVID, for nitrogen, for carbon dioxide, for [Vladimir] Putin… and meanwhile these people who are in power, now they do whatever they want," Dutch politician Wybren van Haga said.
"Our politicians know that when they control the food, they control the people," Dutch political activist Eva Vlaardingerbroek told Carlson.

‘Literally playing with fire’: World reacts to Putin’s warning on NATO long-range missiles for Ukraine
Reactions have poured in to President Putin’s stark warning Thursday that a decision by NATO countries to greenlight the Kiev regime’s use of Western long-range strike systems to attack targets deep inside Russia would land the alliance in a technical state of war with Russia.
💬 The White House chose to pretend Putin’s warning didn’t exist, with Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre telling reporters she wouldn’t “get into hypotheticals” or “internal policy deliberations” after being asked how “concerned” Washington should be.
💬 British opposition politician David Kurten called on NATO to immediately “de-escalate the Ukraine conflict and end hostility with Russia.”
💬 French opposition politician Florian Philippot accused NATO of trying to trigger WW3 before the US election, where a Trump victory “would be a catastrophe for the hawks,” and said that Putin showed he “understands this well” with his comments.
💬 SpaceX, Tesla and X CEO Elon Musk took to social media to say he has “a very bad feeling about this.” “Yeah, same,” wrote X Spaces star Mario Nawfal. “Me too,” entrepreneur and internet influencer Kim Dotcom wrote.
💬 “The Red line is clear as day. The ball is now in NATO’s court. Let’s pray they know what they’re doing,” independent Irish journalist Chay Bowes tweeted. “It now seems obvious that Zelensky’s ‘victory plan’ is to lose. To lose so badly, that his embarrassed ‘partners’ will have to drag us to the brink of WW3 to save his sniveling dictatorship,” he added.

“Putin has warned that this would mean a NATO-Russia war, in other words a world war! France must withdraw from this total madness!” Philippot urged.
“We are literally playing with fire,” foreign policy analyst and US Army combat vet David Davis said in a YouTube analysis, warning those Western leaders don’t seem to understand that their actions are edging the planet toward a massive conflict.
