Many rational people describe US President Donald Trump as mentally unstable, even "crazy."

PFLP: Between Trump’s Madness & America’s Madness! (19.1.2026)

The Americans believe this is the cure for their madness: cornering China between the Pacific and Indian Oceans, forcing it to submit to its American master. A madman cannot be sane! He has overturned standards and laws, waged wars of annihilation, assassinated heads of state, and imprisoned presidents. He no longer recognizes the existence of international bodies and institutions, to the point that European leaders have spoken of their fear that America might bomb NATO countries. The equation is: control of resources is the key to control, or if you prefer, call it neo-colonialism. It’s a mad party, but it’s not inevitable.

China: Iran’s Supreme Leader – US-Backed “Sedition” Defeated – Schools Set to Re-Open! (18.1.2026)

Iranian authorities said the peaceful protests had been hijacked by “vandals,” and the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported on Friday that security forces had detained about 3,000 people in connection with the unrest.

Amid the easing tensions, short message service in Iran was resumed on Saturday, while schools will reopen on Sunday after a one-week closure, according to Iranian media.

Also on Saturday, Lebanon’s Hezbollah voiced firm support for Iran. In a televised address on the Hezbollah-controlled al-Manar channel, Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem called Iran a “stronghold of resistance” and accused the United States of seeking global domination.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry issued a statement Friday night strongly condemning what it called “meddlesome” remarks by the Group of Seven nations concerning the recent unrest, urging the group to stop interfering in Iran’s internal affairs.

Iran’s security forces dismantle Mossad-linked terrorist cell, seize Tehran-bound weapons

During the operation, “significant amounts of various types of weapons, ammunition, and satellite equipment were discovered and confiscated,” added the report. 

What began as peaceful protests late last month gradually turned violent, as rioters rampaged through cities across the country, killing security forces and civilians and attacking public infrastructure.

Iranian officials have linked the riots and terrorist acts to the US and the Israeli regime.

The US and Israel’s Mossad have admitted their involvement on the ground, with former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tweeting, “Happy New Year to every Iranian in the streets. Also, to every Mossad agent walking beside them.”

In a Farsi-language social media post, Mossad encouraged rioters to “Go out together into the streets. The time has come,” adding that Mossad agents are with the rioters “not only from a distance and verbally. We are with [them] in the field.”

Iran: Reuters Claim “Chinese Domestic Firms Barred from Using US, Israeli Cybersecurity Software Amid ‘Security Concerns'” – But is it True? (15.1.2026)

Initially, I came across this article on Press TV via Telegram – but found that Google is “banning” Iranian media – whilst the US and Israel attempt a violent overthrow of the Iranian government. Instead, I had to open the below article via the Microsoft search-engine. Whether wordpress shadow-bans or ghosts this article is anyone’s guess. I have checked the Mainland Chinese-language “Baidu” search-engine for confirmation of this original “Reuters” article – and could not find any reference. Therefore, I would tread carefully. Reuters, just like all the Western news outlets are controlled by the bourgeois establishment and loyally does its (pro-capitalist) bidding. On the other hand, China, like any country, routinely exercises its right to self-defence – just as Iran is doing now.

Israel: Bill to Allow Execution of Palestinian Prisoners by Hanging! (14.1.2026)

Prisoners sentenced to death would be held in complete isolation, with visits restricted exclusively to authorized personnel. Details of executions would be published on the Israel Prison Service’s website, while the identities of those carrying out the sentence would remain confidential.

Since the start of Israel’s genocidal war, the regime has sharply escalated its violations against Palestinian detainees, particularly those from the besieged Gaza Strip, including starvation, torture, sexual violence and systematic denial of medical care.

Late last month, a report by leading Palestinian prisoner advocacy groups said Israel was committing a “systematic genocide” against Palestinians held in Israeli detention,
