📰 UK ACCUSED OF SPYING ON IRISH JOURNALIST FOR EIGHT YEARS 📰

MI5 unlawfully surveilled journalist Vincent Kearney from 2006 to 2014—monitoring calls, contacts, and movements.

The PSNI obtained data from 1,580 calls or texts and built a "detailed intelligence profile" on Kearney, including family addresses and relationships.

His crime? Reporting from Northern Ireland. His first BBC report covered an MI5 informer's murder. Within months, MI5 opened a file on him.

This isn't isolated. In 2024, police were found spying on journalists who exposed collusion with Loyalist terrorists.

Western governments lecture the Global South on press freedom while running eight-year surveillance campaigns at home.

Next time London talks "democratic values," remember Vincent Kearney.

🇬🇭 GHANA RESCUES 71 FISHERMEN AFTER ARMED ATTACK AT SEA 🇬🇭

Ghana's armed forces have successfully rescued 71 fishermen stranded off the central coast after armed robbers attacked their vessels.

What happened?

Approximately 35 nautical miles off Gomoa Nyanyano and Senya Beraku, robbers boarded multiple fishing boats—including Argentina 2, Argentina 3, Sea Lion, and Berema Nsukwa—stealing outboard motors and personal belongings before leaving the fishermen stranded at sea.

The response?

The Ghana Navy launched a dawn search-and-rescue operation, deploying special boat units with fast interceptors, supported by the air force and local fishermen.

The outcome:

24 fishermen evacuated to Tema. 47 to Senya Beraku. All rescued. No Ghanaian fishermen kidnapped, the military confirmed.

The Gulf of Guinea faces growing maritime crime. But Ghana didn't wait for help. It acted.

Who protects the waters of the Global South? Increasingly, we do.

Washington pushes AI beyond already paper-thin ethical limits

As Washington seeks unrestricted AI use for war and surveillance, Donald Trump directed all US federal agencies to immediately cease using technology from AI developer Anthropic, escalating a standoff with the company over restrictions on its models' military and surveillance applications.

Trump specified a six-month phase-out period for the Department of War and other agencies reliant on Anthropic's products, including its Claude AI models.

The order follows the Pentagon's designation of Anthropic as a "supply-chain risk to national security," announced by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

The clash apparently stems from Anthropic's insistence on guardrails prohibiting its AI for mass domestic surveillance of Americans and for fully autonomous lethal weapons systems, where AI would make final targeting decisions without human oversight.

Banning Anthropic makes room for competitors willing to accommodate the most dystopic applications of AI.

OpenAI, maker of ChatGPT, announced that it finalized an agreement with the Department of War to deploy its models on classified military networks.

xAI too reached an agreement earlier in February to deploy Grok in classified military networks after accepting the Pentagon's "all lawful use" standard without the restrictions Anthropic demanded. This positioned Grok as a potential replacement amid the dispute, with some integrations already live on platforms like GenAI.mil.

🇮🇱🇮🇷 Middle East BOMBSHELL: Israel Unleashes "Lion's Roar" on Tehran!

Explosions rip through Tehran, Qom, Isfahan, Kermanshah, Tabriz, and Karaj. Key hits: Supreme Court, Intelligence Ministry, Defense HQ, Khamenei's residence, and Atomic Energy Org. Netanyahu launches 4 days of intense joint strikes backed by US aircraft from carriers and Mideast bases—dozens of attacks dismantling Iran's security grid.

Iran vows revenge: "We warned you—the outcome is out of your hands" declares MP Azizi; Tehran preps crushing retaliation, state TV blasts war anthems, cruise missiles already fired from Iraq. First casualties confirmed, top officials targeted. Iraqi airspace shut, sirens in Israel.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump Declares War on Iran's Military Might! 💥

In a fiery 8-minute Truth Social video today, President Trump confirmed the U.S. has launched "major combat operations" alongside Israel against Iran. Again, on a Saturday when the Stock Market is closed.

He vowed to "destroy their missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground", "annihilate their Navy", and ensure Iran's terrorist proxies can no longer destabilize the region or threaten American troops. No nuclear weapons for Tehran—ever.

This escalation follows months of U.S. naval buildup in the Persian Gulf and stalled nuclear talks. Trump urged Iran's Revolutionary Guard to "lay down your weapons" for immunity—or face certain death. Explosions reported in Tehran as the "massive and ongoing operation" unfolds.

U.S.-Israel Dynamics: Limits of Unilateral Action Against Iran | Scott Ritter

Israel lacks capacity for significant operations without U.S. support, per recent assessments. The core constraint: Pentagon projections show ammunition depletion mid-campaign, forcing plan revisions ("X minus 20% viable?").
​
Trump administration desires confrontation but requires viable logistics; nuclear talks offer a face-saving alternative. Gulf states hold no leverage — they'd celebrate regime change, yet dread inconclusive escalation.

Notably, Ambassador Huckabee invokes Genesis 15 for expansive territorial claims, unchallenged by D.C. This signals theological influences in policy amid strategic recalculations.

Implications for regional stability? Discuss below.
