💥An Israeli security official to @CNN: "Netanyahu very much wanted to carry out a joint strike against Iran before the elections, and tried to persuade Trump, but didn't get the okay. One reason for that is that IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir told US counterpart Dan Kane that a strike would harm electoral process in Israel and lead to postponement of vote."
💥My report on Netanyahu's efforts to provoke renewed war with Iran before Tuesday's elections, citing @YaronAvraham's scoop tonight and followup from Haaretz's unparalleled Amos Harel. With @JJammine on @France24_en.

Lula’s victory will be greeted with horror in Silicon Valley. Outside the EU, Brazil has been the biggest holders to account of US tech firms. And Facebook’s actions before the election deserve proper scrutiny
WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE
President Trump escalated his invective against Norway, calling it a ‘shit house country’ and saying Norwegian immigrants are not welcome in the United States because the Nobel committee, based in the capital Oslo, has not awarded him a Peace Prize reut.rs/3U1joSt
ITBP - a special paramilitary tasked to be at the border - alongwith other paramilitaries was inside a central University in the national capital.
Just that one thing should make clear what is happening in 2026 India.

Dear Shri Navdeep Rinwa ji, Apna kaam sahi se karo. There are several discrepancies in every booth in UP even after 6 months of Final SIR list. Ye trolling aap BJP paid trolls pe chhod do...
हालिया विधान परिषद के चुनाव की मतदाता सूची में एक अजीबोगरीब नाम “राम ने शर्मा को मारा” भी है। कंप्यूटर/सॉफ्टवेयर जातिवादी नहीं है। हमारे द्वारा गलती किया जाना स्वीकार है लेकिन हमारे सौभाग्य से गलती होते समय भी जाति का भेदभाव नहीं हुआ है। भगवान का यह भी शुक्र है की राम ने किसी अल्पसंख्यक को नहीं मारा है। नहीं तो जातिवादी होने के साथ-साथ सांप्रदायिक होने का इल्ज़ाम भी लगता।

Three Weeks Ago, We Were Reading Lula's Political Obituaries. Today, He is Back for a Historic Fourth Term.
Lula's task is to ensure Brazil does not need another 'miracle' to rescue it.

Historian Romila Thapar, 96, on Sunday (October 25, 2026) argued that colonial historians fundamentally shaped the way Indian history came to be understood, reducing complex social and political processes to simplified religious narratives that continue to influence historical interpretations today and propagate the Hindutva reading of Indian history.
