The report details how ISIS has depended on US protection and training to both increase violent attacks in Iraq and Syria and cross the heavily policed border between the two countries.

According to a report from Iraqi intelligence seen by The Cradle, thousands of ISIS fighters emerged from the eastern Syrian deserts in 2024, unscathed from years of counterterrorism raids. The report details how ISIS has depended on US protection and training to both increase violent attacks in Ira...

In an interview with several BBC staffers, an editor-in-chief named Raffi Berg has been revealed to have one single job—"to water down everything that's too critical of Israel".

In a worrying trend for media integrity, another major Western news outlet has been revealed to have strict editorial guidelines for downplaying or ignoring the genocidal crimes committed by Israeli forces in the Gaza Strip. In an interview with several BBC staffers, an editor-in-chief named Raffi B...

Dozens of nations have begun to engage diplomatically with the new Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, and as the custodians of the Two Holy Places of Mecca and Medina, the return of Saudi officials will surely be among the most high-profile.

The Taliban-controlled government in Kabul has welcomed an announcement by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that it would be resuming ambassadorial activities after a three-year interruption. On Sunday, the Saudi embassy in Kabul wrote on X that “based on the government’s keenness to provide all serv...

It's a dramatic and difficult-to-explain double standard when compared with media coverage of the last time a terrorist organization took over a nation's government and attempted to reform it using Sharia law, which of course was in 2021 in Afghanistan.

Story at a glance... Hayat Tahrir al-Sham's leader al-Jolani has announced that the new Syria will be governed by Sharia law. Rather than receiving an outcry of opposition from Western leaders, high level talks continue and delegations flow into Damascus. The response has been much more positive tha...

The Israeli Defense Forces are already ethnically cleansing the north of Gaza according to the “General’s Plan“.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has stated publically that Gaza will not return to civilian control after the conflict. The comments are in direct opposition to the long-ignored injunction issued by the International Court of Justice, and in conflict with Israeli military leaders' statements ab...

Even more concerning, close to 50% of adolescents (15-24) and 37% of children (5-14) are overweight, with 25% and 14% obesity rates, respectively.

Under the second Trump Administration, it's fair to suggest that the nation's public health sector will undergo the most radical changes and schisms it has likely ever seen, and the appointments the incoming president has made to oversee these changes have already sustained vitriolic criticism of a....

It's clear the only politician in America today who had both the potential to win the presidency and the potential to rejuvenate de-escalatory dialogue with the North was Trump, but the DPRK has never needed talks less than now.

Of the many foreign policy challenges facing Donald Trump in his second term, fewer share the stark contrasts of the current deterioration of the already-none-existent relationship with North Korea. It's clear the only politician in America today who had both the potential to win the presidency and....

The Kurdish SDF recently announced it had direct confirmation from the new authority in Damascus that Kurdish territories are not among their targets.

Throughout the whole of the conflict in Syria, the population in Kurdistan to the northeast has retained a degree of independence, including through a military force known as the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). Backed by the US, and spending more time fighting the Turkish military and its proxies th...

Scientists watched as Boris began walking in a straight line directly north until his paws had chewed up 120 miles—stopping where Svetlana had made a den. Six months later, a litter of Amur kittens was born. 🐯❤️🐯

Conservationists have succeeded in restoring tiger populations in a region where they were virtually absent for more than 50 years in Russia. It took a decade; from 2012 to 2021 in the Pri-Amur region of Russia, but more than a dozen members of the largest subspecies of the world's largest feline ar...

UNESCO is famous for its designation of World Heritage Sites like Machu Picchu, but is substantially less famous for what is arguably a much more important role it performs.

The 19th session of the Intangible Cultural Heritage Committee of UNESCO just concluded in Paraguay, adding 58 cultural practices to a list of 'Intangible Cultural Heritage'. UNESCO is famous for its designation of World Heritage Sites like Machu Picchu, the City of Rome, and the Treasury of Petra,....

The Islamists that took control in Syria are headed by a former al-Qaeda battlefield leader who oversaw combat against the US in Feluja, su***de bombing in Syria, enslavement of women in Idlib, and other crimes besides.

Following the remarkably fast collapse of the Assad regime in Syria, the global news media have had to dig out a lot of names they haven't used in years, including that of Abu Muhammad al-Jolani, the Emir of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, (HTS) the terrorist organization that just took control of Damascus an...

Trump inherited that clandestine legacy but failed to dismantle it as his instincts suggested he should. His failure extends to not allowing the state of Syria to rebuild itself and ultimately crush this ISIS-like enclave in the country's northwest.

A major terrorist offensive has been launched at Syria's battered northwest city of Aleppo, led by a mixture of ISIS remnants and the old al-Qaeda affiliate in Syria al-Nusra which merged with other Islamists to form a new group called Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS). HTS has ruled a part of the Idlib pr...

Teruel's mudéjar monuments, along with others of a certain vintage scattered around Aragon, are collectively listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It's these monuments, that put Teruel on the map, but just one share of its many charms.

There's a joke in Spain that the country has two cities that don't exist: Murcia, the biggest city that isn't a tourist attraction, and Teruel, because when the government was building a high-speed railway line through the province of the same name, it simply didn't add in a stop for Teruel center.....

Three years later, the Tablian is now collaborating with Moscow, the very entity the US had sought to roust from the country's borders when Washington first became involved in Afghanistan's affairs.

It was said at the time that Operation Cyclone was the most successful covert operation in CIA history. It involved sending over $2 billion in weapons to Muslim rebels in Soviet-occupied Afghanistan between 1982 and 1987. Today, as the Taliban gradually rebuilds the nation according to Islamic law,....

These missiles had been prohibited between the US and Russia since the Reagen Administration, but during Donald Trump's first term the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty which banned them was allowed to elapse.

Ukrainian ballistics experts recently issued a press statement regarding an unknown missile type just fired by Russia at the Ukrainian city of Dnipro after studying its remnants. According to the experts, who didn't take questions and whose surnames weren't disclosed, the weapon struck following a b...

The US Dep. Ambassador said it couldn't support a ceasefire without hostage release, despite the fact that the resolution did include a demand for unconditional hostage release.

On Wednesday, the US used its veto in a UN Security Council Resolution to demand an unconditional ceasefire and the release of all hostages both Israeli and Palestinian. It marks the fourth time the US has vetoed such a resolution, even as the November 20th vote saw the UK vote yes, a nation that ha...

The Aragonese were the first large region to completely throw the Muslims out, uprooting them from their forts and cities, smashing the forts, and converting them into churches.

In my last dispatch, I teased I was visiting the Spanish region of Aragon, and that I would perhaps have nicer things to say of the Spanish and their customs. Of Aragon I have naught but praise for its particular charms. The region's borders touch the Pyrenees to the north, Catalonia to the east, an...

Built by the Seljuk ruler Nuri al-Din in the 12th century, its famous lean, reminiscent of Christendom's Leaning Tower in Pisa, had been standing for 850 years.

Workers in Iraq's northern city of Mosul have finished building the famous leaning minaret, destroyed in 2017 by ISIS fighters in the final stages of the conflict to unravel their control in the country. Built by the Seljuk ruler Nuri al-Din in the 12th century, its famous lean, reminiscent of Chris...
