Biden's PLAN for Gaza Ceasefire - Israeli - Gaza Plan - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports on its 7.08pm post " 

What is Biden's three-phase plan?...

The three-phase plan involves the return of Israeli hostages from Gaza and reconstruction of civilian areas.  "

Lets Get Real:

This plan came out of blue, is it a REAL PLAN, does the Israeli Government support the plan, is this an attempt by Biden so secure his left base at the expense of Israel.  It will be interesting to see what Israel DOES, not what they say, does the WAR in Gaza go on, what does the Biden Oval do if ISRAEL says NO, its not their backyard for the US and Europe.  After 9/11 in the US, the US did not have talks with Al Qaeda is, while Israel is expect to have talks with HAMAS.   All Biden cares about is the November election, in way that is the right mind set, he has to what it takes to beat Trump, the former President and felon is still a THREAT.  The US and the World might get the lucky and the Judge in the case puts Trump in jail.  The World awaits the sentence in New York.

Moscow Angry that Western Weapons can be used to attack Russia on the border - Ukraine - Russia War - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports " Anger in Moscow after Ukraine allowed to hit Russia with Western weapons...Russia has accused Nato and the US of "provoking a new level of tension" after the US and Germany became the latest allies to let Ukraine's military use Western-supplied weapons to strike targets inside Russia. "

Lets Get Real:

The Biden Administration has only modified its strategy, the Kyiv forces can only use their Western Weapons that are close to the border, the new Russian Offensive has been effective, it was a surprise, the Kyiv Forces have to push the Russians back and regain the last lost to the Russians.  The Biden Oval can not afford to lose the Ukraine, how ever much the Russians fume, the next development will be when the Ukraine Air Crew are trained on Western fighter jets the F-16s should five the Kyiv forces the back up they needed.  The day will come when NATO has to send troops in to the Ukraine, that will be the red line for the Russians, then the game will be become very interesting and tension filled. 

US still supports Israel after moving in to Central Rafah - Israeli - Gaza War - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 9.01pm post the following, " Israeli strikes on Rafah not enough to prompt withdrawal of US assistance....The White House has said that the strikes on Rafah both on Sunday and today do not prompt the withdrawal of US military assistance to Israel. .."

Lets Get Real:

Lets look at the Israeli action in the cold hard day, the Israeli Government has thrashed the Biden Red line, and good for them, the actions of Biden in Afghanistan has shown that he does and has never understood foreign policy, the images of people trying to get on US planes, will live on like those on Vietnam WAR, also the Biden Oval actions lead to the death of 13 US military personnel because he wanted to rush out of Afghanistan, think of those he left behind.  Thus Israel should have no trouble with Biden, he needs the Jewish vote in 2024, and the unwashed rioting students are of no concern.  Also the US and the World cannot afford a 2nd Trump term, lets hope he found guilty in in NY Trial, even jail time might work, we we an all dream.

Israel in CENTRAL Rafah - Israeli - Gaza War - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports " Israeli tanks reach central Rafah as strikes continue....Israeli forces have reportedly reached the centre of the southern Gaza city of Rafah and seized a strategically important hill overlooking the nearby border with Egypt.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Israeli Government was right to carry on with its action, the terrorists that Israel face will think twice about doing another 7th October, fear goes a long way and might save lives in the long term.   The IDF has to clear Gaza of HAMAS, once and fall all, then it can talk to the Government in the West Bank about them taking control of Gaza under Israeli observation.   On the whole the Biden Administration has been quiet, it can not afford to lose the Jewish vote in November, and November is the most important month here, Trump can not be allowed to get a 2nd Oval Office Term.  That is for the security of the US, Europe and Israel in the Middle East.   The left in the Democratic Party will blow its top, the Democratic Convention in Chicago should be interesting, will the Gaza protesters turn up there?  Will 2024 Convention be like 1968?

The US on Rafah Attack - Israeli - Gaza War - Biden Era

Sky News: Reports " 

White House says it's in contact with IDF over Rafah airstrike..

US officials are discussing with the IDF and partners on the ground to assess what happened. "

Lets Get Real:

The American LEFT in the US will want a more fulsome rebuke of ISRAEL, the Biden Camp needs people of Arab Decent to vote for them in November, the race is close between Biden and Trump, the Trial in New York could bring in a guilty verdict, the State is very Democratic, also the charges are bogus, paying off a porn star in not an offense, but that simple fact might be over the heads of the Jury, thus one expects a guilty verdict and  a long appeal process.   If it is a guilty result, one will be interested to see the polls, could it be the END of Trump, one has  doubts.  Thus in 2024 you have the Israel - Gaza War in the Middle East and the Ukraine War in Europe, either could lead to WW3.

Israeli PM says ATTACK on Rafah was tragic - Israeli - Gaza War - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports " Deadly strike on Rafah a tragic mishap, Netanyahu says....Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the strike which killed scores of displaced Palestinians in Rafah on Sunday was a "tragic mishap", amid growing international condemnation of the blast.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Israeli has admitted a mistake in this action, that is the right thing to do, but it must keep its nerve, this might be their only chance to take out HAMAS, let' s never forget 7th of October, you are not dealing with a different state, your are dealing with a terrorist group, who murder and rape their prisoners, also some States in Europe have faint hearts, such as the Irish and Norway, they have declared their  support for a Palestinian State, slight it might never happen, the US will never support such a move without the support of Israel, the Jewish State can never take that risk, it would be a THREAT to them. If Israel is going to move, move in fast and hard, otherwise they will be forced by the West to STOP.  The Israeli Government or the PM does not have the support of Trump if he wins in November, thus Israel must act in ruthless manner.

Let Kyiv strike Russia with Western weapons - Ukraine - Russia - Sir Keir Starmer Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in is 8.19pm post the following, " 

'Let Ukraine strike back!'....

Ukrainians gathered outside the US embassy in Kyiv as part of mounting demands to remove restrictions on where Ukraine can use Western weapons. "

Lets Get Real:

This could be the first international crisis that Sir Keir could face as PM, what if the Russians throw one more and final offensive and declare a ceasefire in the Ukraine, the Kyiv begs the US and the UK for permission to use Western weapons in Russia, what if Trump wins in November and washes his hands of the Ukraine, the money has to come from somewhere and also the arms. The Baltic States and Poland will be ringing the bell alarm, what if the Ukraine is not the last war that Putin has on his mind.  This could lead WW3 if the West is not careful, will Sir Keir be Neville Chamberlain  or Churchill, time will tell.

NO TAX HIKES under LABOUR - The future LABOUR Government - Sir Keir Starmer Era

BBC News: Reports " Labour's Rachel Reeves rules out increasing income tax or NI....Labour has said there will be no rises in income tax or National Insurance if it wins the general election - but some spending cuts have not been ruled out.  "

Lets Get Real:

I have heard the same music before form the LABOUR PARTY and they always leave OFFICE after the wreaking the economy, the 1970s and then in 2007 with the financial crisis, they always over promise and then FAIL.  Also this time its different, there could be WW3 around the corner with Russia, the people of the UK have to wake up, this is more like the 1930s not the 1970s, Putin is already putting out ceasefire noise about the Ukraine.  It will be interesting to see what Labour say will be their defence posture, will a new LABOUR GOVERNMENT really want to spend its money on the Ukraine, what happens if Trump wins in November, he will demands that the UK spend more on defence and rest of Europe.  This is not 1997 and New Labour and New Britain, recall the Emperor Nero was popular on his succession, he was styled the Prince of Youth and looked what happened, Blair has Iraq, always Iraq.

UK General Election on July 4th - The Next Labour Government - Starmer Era

BBC News: Reports " When is the next UK general election and who can vote?...Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has said the next general election will take place on 4 July.  "

Lets Get Real:

The PM has gone early, it is reported on Sky News that he feared letters going in to the 1922 Committee, he could have waited in January 2025, he either thinks he has a chance, the polls show him the Conservatives losing by 20% to Labour, or he wants to make the Conservative Party and its factions sorry, as they will lose members.  This blog will take an interest in Labour's Foreign policy and Defence, just in case they go nuts again.   The news media will try to make it a competitive race, it wont be, the Country is tired after 13 and half years of Conservative rule, so they want a change, Labour might find wining is not that much fun with WW3 on the horizon, will Sir Keir press that red button if he has too, what about immigration and the welfare budget.  There will be endless press coverage, this blog will be selective as not to bore the reader. 

Russia starts tactical nuclear drills on border with the Ukraine - Ukraine - Russia War - Biden Era

Guardian: Reports " Russia begins tactical nuclear weapon drills near Ukraine border...Vladimir Putin announced the exercises earlier this month ‘as a warning to the west not to escalate tensions further’  "

Lets Get Real:

Putin promised this would happen early on as the article states, the action is meant to put off Countries like France and Poland who want to send troops in to the Ukraine.   One can see Putin using tactical nuclear weapons should the latest Russia OFFENSIVE fail in the North West of the Ukraine, he has made a reshuffle in his Defence Department and placed an economist in charge, one assumes that he recalls that the Soviet spending on defence lead to its downfall, as people on the streets suffered to get basic materials.   There is the theory that he is planning for a LONG WAR, even an attack on a NATO country, that on the whole can be discounted, Putin is not a mad man, if he is he hides it well, he just kills people, and the action of the Russian Army in the Ukraine does not help his cause, they have done many actions that count as WAR CRIMES, and the ICC has issued an arrest warrant for him, no one takes any notice of it, and its latest action over Israel could see it go the way of the League of Nations, footnote of history.

Dead Iran President was Terrorist Supporter and had BLOOD ON HIS HANDS - The White House

BBC News: Reports " Iran declares five days of mourning for president.........However, the White House said the late president had been responsible for Iran’s support for "terrorist networks throughout the region" and that he had "a lot of blood on his hands".  "

Lets Get Real:

The late President of Iran was a EVIL SOB, who deserved what he got, HELL has another tyrant in its fold, Hitler, Stalin, Gaddafi, Putin to follow one day one hopes. There is always Evil in this World, thank God we had Churchill during WW2 and Reagan in the 1980s. Who is our hero today?

Outrageous Action by ICC - Biden - Israeli - Gaza War - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election

The White House: States the following, "  Statement from President Joe Biden on the Warrant Applications by the International Criminal Court...The ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is outrageous. And let me be clear: whatever this prosecutor might imply, there is no equivalence — none — between Israel and Hamas.  We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security.   "

Lets Get Real:

The real way for the ICC to make itself another origination that does not last like the League of Nation is if the US says it does not matter, Biden has an election to win and he will do whatever it takes to keep the Jewish vote, if that means trashing the ICC so be it, no other Country will follow its writ, it just might become a busted flush.  The Judges if they have any sense will allow for the arrest warrants for Hamas leader but not for Israel.  Thus this is a warning to the ICC, keep out of something that none of its business, in less the powers say so.

Has the New Russian Offensive Stalled in the Ukraine - Ukraine - Russian WAR - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 2.45pm post the following, " 

Russian offensive 'appears to have slowed'...

And the latest analysis from US thinktank the Institute for the Study of War suggests that the pace of the offensive "appears to have slowed over the past 24 hours". "

Lets Get Real:

The above could be because the delayed US military kit has finally arrived, the Russians have the men they have endless men, but they do not have the military kit, the Biden Administration has to be quick, if cannot allow the Ukraine to fall to the Russians.  The Russian Bear would not be just happy with the Donbas in the East of the Ukraine, they would go after all of it, what next Poland the Baltic States.  Also this is a Presidential Election year in the US, its Biden verses Trump, Biden might be senile but he is all we got to support US security and that of the West.   This cannot be another Afghanistan! The Debates will be interesting, all Biden has to do is turn up an not fall over, and he will be a shoe in November.  Biden has to attack Trump on national security, Trump is a puppet of Putin.

President Biden to debate former President Trump Twice - 2024 Candidates / 2024 General Election - Biden Era

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in 4.56pm post the following, " Trump accepts invitations for two debates with Biden.....The first, hosted by CNN, is scheduled for 27 June in Atlanta, and the second, hosted by ABC, is set for 10 September at a location that has not been announced yet.  "

Lets Get Real:

It is surprising that either candidates accepted the debates, on the Trump side, he is going in to the mouth of the liberal press, the anchors on CNN can barely contain the expectation that Trump will be found guilty in his Court Case and be sent to prison, on the Biden side the campaign staff must be worried that Biden will say something stupid that they have to walk back.  Also the debates are early and not done through the usual process, what about the Conventions , the election does not normally start in till after Labour Day, September 1st.   Are both sides worried about the polls, is Trump really in the lead in the Swing States, does Biden know something that hi s campaign does not, he does trust the polls.  The rest of the networks  will be up in arms, Fox OR NBC, will winder why they were not given a chance, thus the modern Campaigns.

Alarming Poll results for Biden in NEW POLL - 2024 Candidates / 2024 General Election - Biden Era

 The Hill: Reports the following, " Polling sets off fresh alarm bells for Biden...The poll found Trump leading in five out of six swing states, with Wisconsin the lone place where Biden is ahead.  "

Lets Get Real:

As stated by many polls are snapshots of time, the Trump Trial could still find him GUILTY of paying off a PORN STAR, on other hand that is not a crime, that crime is how he paid her off, if you want more watch CNN, this blog does not dirty itself with such stories.   Let's face it, Trump is a celebrity, the rules are different, the voters might see the Court Case as Democratic over reach, it could well be.  Thus the Biden team have to fight as if they are behind in the State Polls, and they are, Trump cannot be allowed to WIN, he would be disaster for the US and the Western Alliance.  Why his polls are still up is open to question, have the people not taken a real interest in the case, do they care more about their wallets than US national security.

Ukraine CLOSER to NATO - US - Ukraine - Russian War - Biden Era

BBC - Live Blog: Reports on Secretary Blinken's visit to the Ukraine in its 5.12pm post the following, " 'We are bringing Ukraine closer to Nato'..."We are going to make it harder for Russia to strike you," Blinken says, adding that "time is of the essence". "

Lets Get Real:

The request for ammo was moths ago, the Russians have used this time to increase their forces at the front and are pushing before the Western Aid come through.   If Biden was serious about the Ukraine, he would take the risk and place NATO troops in the Ukraine.  The French and Poland have made plenty noise about that.   This might be the last Russian chance to win the Donbas and declare a ceasefire, forcing the Ukraine and the West to go on the offensive, making them look LIKE  they are the warmongers.   This blog is supporting Biden because Trump would appease the Russians, that  would lead to WW3, the path chosen by Biden could lead to WW3, you have to take steps ahead of Putin to WIN.

Russian Gains in Kharkiv Region of the Ukraine - Ukraine - Russian War - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports " Ukraine in 'difficult situation' as Russian troops claim four more villages..After claiming five villages in the Kharkiv region on Saturday, Moscow now says it has taken control of four more - taking the total to nine. Meanwhile, Russia accused Ukraine of "criminality" as officials say at least eight died in a Ukrainian airstrike in Belgorod.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is the cost of the West, in this case Republicans in the House playing the games, the Ukraine will need more military kit, also the question has to be asked, how much is the West willing to lose in the Ukraine, does it want RUSSIA to take over the Ukraine, does it want to follow the path of the 1930s with Hitler taking all of Czechoslovakia after the West appease him with his original demands.  The UK and the US should consider sending in troops or fighter jets to the Ukraine. Sometimes you are left with no choice, that is better sometimes, otherwise we could be on the road to WW3 sooner than people think.

False Flog Operation in Belgorod in Russia ? - Ukraine - Russian War - Biden Era

BBC  News: Reports " Russia blames Ukraine as Belgorod apartments collapse after blast...Russia is blaming a Ukrainian strike after an entire section of an apartment building collapsed following an explosion in Belgorod.  "

Lets Get Real:

It is not unknown for the Russians to blow up their own buildings as to get public support, or the allegation that they planned and took part in the recent terrorist attack at a concert hall is Moscow.   That investigation has gone very quiet of late.  The Russians have started a new offensive in the Ukraine, so far it is going well, the fresh US weapons have not arrived yet in the Ukraine, the West has been slow with military kit, thus giving the Russians this chance.  It would not be a surprise to this blog if a few other buildings are not blow up by the FSB.   The Russian Bear is on the move, its claws have to be cut, and the West cannot afford WEAK leadership of POTUS when it comes to the Ukraine and Israel.

New Military Aid from the US to the Ukraine - Ukraine - Russian War - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 7.22pm post the following " Zelenskyy thanks Biden after US announces $400m military aid package  "

Lets Get Real:

This is good timing by POTUS, he is in trouble for pausing military aid for ISRAEL over Gaza, at least he is helping a close ally, also he wants to stop the French or Poles sending troops in to the Ukraine to tackle the new Russian offensive.   After Afghanistan and the failure of the Biden Administration and Israel telling POTUS to get lost, he needs to show that he can really run US foreign policy, and be successful.  This is an election YEAR, and November is not that far AWAY, Biden leads in the latest poll by 4%, so he neds to keep a firm control of US national security.  Biden has to hold his ground OVER Gaza, as Reagan did with Israel when they were in Lebanon, also he has to be right, when he was Senator or Vice - President it did not matter what he thought, NOW it matters!!.

The King and the Duke of Sussex DO NOT MEET while both are in LONDON - King Charles III Era

BBC News: Reports " Harry and King at London events but not meeting...The Duke of Sussex has attended a service at St Paul's Cathedral in London during a brief visit to the UK.  "

Lets Get Real:

The King is still going through his cancer treatment and the Doctors have given him the OKAY to return to public duties, the Country is glad to hear that, with everything else going to hell, its important to have a stable King and Royal Family.   The Duke Sussex in his book SPARE, went after everyone, the Queen, the Prince and the Princess of Wales, the King on the whole was spared!  IF the Duke of Sussex wants to return to Royal Favour he should start with building a bridge with the Prince of Wales, the Prince of Wales has had to cope with his father and wife having cancer, the poor man could do with some support, but his brother cannot be trusted, his revelations in the SPARE of family discussion must have felt like a stab in the back, thus the Duke will need to grovel a bit, send some flowers to the Princess etc.  GOD SAVE THE KING.

Biden LEADS Trump by 4% in a new poll - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election - Biden Era

The Hill: Reports " Biden tops Trump by 4 points among likely voters in new survey..President Biden is leading former President Trump by 4 percentage points among likely voters, according to a new national poll from ABC News/Ipsos.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is good going by the Biden Campaign, they have had to deal with the student protest at Universities across the US and the WAR in Gaza.  If the Biden Campaign is lucky, Trump will be found guilty in his US trial, that on the whole should make sure that Biden wins in November.   The Biden CAMPAIGN should not allow Biden to debate the Trump, he could come across as senile or worse.  The problem is not the national polls but the State Polls, Biden has to campaign as if he really wants to win again, on the whole good news for Biden, what else can go wrong, famous last words.

Israel does limited Strike in Rafah- Gaza - Gaza - Israeli War - Middle East - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 8.27pm post the following, " 

Israel conducting targeted strikes in eastern Rafah...

The Israeli military has said it is currently conducting targeted strikes against Hamas in the region, according to reports.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Hamas terrorist group has stated that it will accept a new peace deal, the Israeli Government has said that Hamas is playing games, one assumes they have seen the student protest in the US and think they can play the US and Biden, they might be right, the Biden Oval is in tight spot, the extreme left of the Democratic Base want to appease HAMAS, they hate Israel and takes as truthful the views of Hamas.  If Biden wants to win in November, he will keep supporting Israel, the left wing base is SMALL, its the economy STUPID.  One does hope that the OVAL OFFICE does not listen to the State Department, they are appears at the end of the day, like FCO in the UK.

Russian Nuclear Sabre rattling - New Cold War II - Ukraine - Russian War - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports " Russia to hold nuclear drills following 'threats' from West...Russia has started preparations for missile drills near Ukraine simulating the use of tactical nuclear weapons in response to "threats" by Western officials.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is Russian pure sabre rattling, they are peeved that France and the UK has been supporting the UKRINE, with the threat of French troops in the UKRAINE, and the UK approval for the Ukraine to use UK missiles to strike Russia prober.   The Kremlin knows that if it hits either France or the UK they would be unleashing WW3, and they would lose such a WAR.  Putin is now a War Criminal, he wants to the West to come to him, or a Presidential meeting with Biden, not going to happen before the November election in America.   The West needs to be quicker with its military kit for the Ukraine, Russia has made its advances, time to push them back for the Russia Bear to have its claws cut off.

Projected House of Common AFTER UK General Election - Labour Era

Sky News: Reports " Sky News projection: Labour on course to be largest party - but short of overall majority...Using the latest figures from the local elections, it can be projected that Labour is on course to be the largest party in parliament - but falls short of a Commons majority by 32 seats.  "

Lets Get Real:

If Sky is right, then the Labour Party under Sir Keir Starmer will not have an overall majority, that is a concern but then the Liberal Democrats will give LABOUR  a supply and support motion, in other words Liberal Dems will support a Labour Budget, but will not want to go in to coalition as they will have learned from 2010.   If that does not happen there are others Parties who might support Labour just to keep the Conservative OUT.  The Party of Thatcher needs a few years in Opposition to decide what it is for and against.   The Party should think about bringing back Boris as leader if he wants the job.   One can expect Labour will make a mess of it, they usually do, the Conservatives can clear up the mess, Starmer is no Blair, and this will not be 1997 all over again.

How the Gaza Protesters will effect the November Election in the US - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election

Guardian: Has an analyses of how the US Protests of Gaza will effect the November Election is the US, " 

What do the US campus protests mean for Joe Biden in November?...Thousands of students have rallied for Palestine, after hundreds of thousands of Democrats declined to vote for Biden in the primary "

Lets Get Real:

This is a smart essay from the Guardian, the Biden Base is varied at best, the Biden Oval can not afford to lose the YOUTH VOTE, what will mothers in the suburbs think if their children getting arrested or worse getting kicked out of University with those student loans to pay back with no degree after three or four years.  The article worries this could be 1968 all over again, LBJ lost the youth vote and Richard Nixon won a close race.   The Biden Oval has to place pressure on Israel not to take more action in GAZA, but also get Hamas to release the hostages it has, that could stop Israel taking action, the Biden Oval needs Gaza off the front pages and the region to go back pre 7th of October if possible.  Trump leads in the Swing States, he might get thrown in to jail with one of his Court Cases, the US and the West might get lucky.

New York Protesters arrested by NY Police over the issue of Gaza - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election

BBC News: Reports " NYC police raid Columbia University building occupied by Gaza protesters...Dozens of pro-Palestinian protesters at Columbia University in New York City were arrested Tuesday night after hundreds of police officers raided a building the students had taken over.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Police in the different States have taken to long to ACT, the 24/7 news networks are not helping, they think its Vietnam all over again!!  The events in Gaza per say are not in the US interest, there are no American Soldiers there, its not a US WAR.   The protesters seems to linked that is the blame of social media, my old friend Hoover would have smelled communist subversion, it could be Putin's Russia or other Axis of EVIL.   The copes in Chicago of 1968 had the right way to deal with hippies, Policemen in hard hats, taking names and arresting people.  A University is place you learn, not getting your rocks off by protesting someone's else's WAR.   The Police should ACT and FAST, read the riot act and ACT.
