✡️❌ 🇵🇸 The New York Police Department and federal authorities disrupted what officials described as a plot by a member of a pro-Israel terrorist organization to assassinate the leader of one of New York’s most active pro-Palestinian protest groups, according to officials and court papers.
Members of the F.B.I. and the Police Department’s Joint Terrorism Task Force notified the activist, Nerdeen Kiswani, and her lawyer late Thursday that an arrest had been made in connection with an imminent attempt on her life, her lawyer and law enforcement officials said.
The man who was arrested, Alexander Heifler, 26, of Hoboken, N.J., was taken into custody after detectives and federal agents searched his apartment and found eight Molotov cocktails.
A police official said Friday that Mr. Heifler was a member of the JDL 613 Brotherhood, which was inspired by the Jewish Defense League, a pro-Israel group designated by the F.B.I. as a terrorist organization. Representatives of the J.D.L. and its offshoot did not immediately reply to messages seeking comment.
Mr. Heifler was charged Friday morning in a two-count criminal complaint with making and possessing the devices and appeared in federal court in Newark hours later. The complaint did not specify a motive for the planned attack, which was laid out in detail. If convicted, Mr. Heifler could face up to 20 years in prison.
The complaint said the plan had been in the works since at least February, when Mr. Heifler discussed building and using Molotov cocktails for what he described as “self-defense” on a group video call that included an undercover detective.
Prosecutors said in the complaint that Mr. Heifler and the undercover detective met in person the next day and then twice more in the weeks that followed, including on Thursday, when they built the eight Molotov cocktails together in Mr. Heifler’s home. He was arrested shortly thereafter.

Luckily for Trump, the Arab oil monarchs like their status as vassal petty kings rather than have any sovereignty so they will tolerate any and all insults Trump throws at them.

Some Turkish citizens are skeptical or opposed to the involvement of firms like BlackRock in Turkey.
A major concern is that large global asset managers could gain outsized influence over Turkey’s economy.
BlackRock is often seen as part of a powerful global financial system.

🇨🇳 Scholar Warns ASEAN Against Exploiting US-China Tensions
Chinese political scientist Zheng Yongnian cautioned Southeast Asian nations against leveraging US-China tensions for short-term gains, warning the strategy could backfire. He stated that smaller countries should not assume the United States would back them in such a calculation.
Zheng noted that while it is possible for smaller states to navigate between major powers, doing so requires a high level of finesse. The remarks were made in the context of ongoing trade and geopolitical friction between Washington and Beijing.
Southeast Asian governments have faced growing pressure to position themselves as US-China competition intensifies across trade, security, and technology. Zheng's comments reflect a line of argument from Chinese academics that regional hedging carries significant strategic risk.

🇸🇬🇨🇳 Singapore PM Urges Engagement With China, Japan
Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, speaking to reporters after visits to Hainan and Hong Kong, said it is important for Singapore to engage both China and Japan not only bilaterally but also in shaping regional affairs. He described the two countries as important partners for ASEAN, with China its largest trading partner and Japan a top investor.
Wong acknowledged that China and Japan are going through a difficult phase in their relations. Tokyo is set to downgrade ties with Beijing according to a diplomatic report awaiting Japanese government approval in April, and tensions have been building since Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said in November 2025 that any Chinese use of force against Taiwan could justify a military response by Tokyo.
Wong framed Singapore's position as maintaining friendship with all major powers without taking sides, describing this as consistent with ASEAN's broader stance. The remarks followed back-to-back trips to Japan, where Singapore and Japan upgraded their ties to a strategic partnership, and to China, where Wong addressed the Boao Forum for Asia.

🇹🇭🇮🇷 Thailand Secures Iran Deal on Hormuz Transit
Thailand reached an agreement with Iran to allow Thai oil tankers safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul announced on March 28. He stated the arrangement would reduce disruptions to fuel imports and prevent a recurrence of shortages seen earlier in March.
Iran's Revolutionary Guards had effectively curtailed shipping through the strait since a Middle East war began in late February, with commodities shipping falling 95 per cent between March 1 and March 26, according to maritime tracking platform Kpler. Iran's Revolutionary Guards separately stated on March 27 they had turned back three vessels attempting to transit the waterway, describing the route as closed to ships linked to its enemies.
The British naval maritime security agency UKMTO reported 24 commercial vessels, including 11 tankers, had been attacked or reported incidents in the Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, or the Gulf of Oman during March. More than 80 per cent of crude oil and LNG transiting the strait is destined for Asia, according to the US Energy Information Administration.

🇮🇩 Indonesia Bans Under-16s From Social Media
Indonesia on Saturday began implementing a government regulation approved earlier in March that prohibits children under 16 from accessing digital platforms including YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, X, and Roblox. The measure is intended to limit exposure to pornography, cyberbullying, online scams, and addictive content.
Indonesia's Communication and Digital Affairs Minister Meutya Hafid stated that all digital platforms operating in the country must bring their products and services into compliance with applicable regulations, with no exceptions for any business entity. The regulation is estimated to affect around 70 million children in a country of approximately 280 million people.
Indonesia becomes the first country in Southeast Asia to impose such a ban, following a similar measure introduced by Australia in 2024. Implementation will proceed gradually until all platforms comply.

🇦🇺 Australia Moves to Amend Export-Finance Laws to Protect Fuel Security
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced on Saturday that Australia will amend its export-finance legislation to strengthen national fuel security as the Iran war continues to disrupt regional supply chains. The move signals that Canberra views the current disruption not as a transient price shock but as a structural vulnerability requiring legislative intervention. Australia imports the majority of its liquid fuels and has long been identified by defense and energy analysts as dangerously exposed to any prolonged disruption in Middle Eastern supply routes.
The amendment targets export-finance mechanisms, suggesting the government intends to use state-backed financial instruments to incentivize domestic fuel storage, refining investment, or long-term supply contracting from alternative sources. Australia shuttered most of its domestic refining capacity over the past decade, leaving it dependent on imported refined products. Combined with the LNG export outages caused by Cyclone Narelle this week, the government faces simultaneous pressure on both the export and import sides of its energy balance sheet.
Australia's legislative response is an early indicator of how middle-power energy importers will begin rebuilding supply chain resilience in the wake of a war that has exposed the fragility of Hormuz-dependent trade flows.

Australia's Agriculture industry consumes 2.5 billion liters of fuel using 7.5% of all the country's diesel production in a short period of time.
In the past 20 years Australia has shut down 6 of their 8 refineries that make fuel and are only left with less than 20% refining capacity to meet their own domestic needs. Recall, this is an island, unlike Canada that leverages the USA for its refining, Australia has to import 90% of all their diesel fuel.
With only a 25-30 day stockpile of fuel this isn't looking good. You need 58 million barrels of raw crude just to make enough diesel for the agriculture industry. Considering that 50% of fuel use in Australia is diesel, it makes perfect sense that there is a scarcity of fuel.
Australia consumes 575,000 barrels/d of diesel while producing only 75,000 barrels/d of diesel. This is a globalists wet dream, Albanese is really impressed with this I am sure.
Regional Crop Production Leaders (2025–2026)
-Western Australia: 26.9 million tonnes
(New state record; produced 40% of the nation's wheat.)
-New South Wales: 18.0 million tonnes
(Heavy hitter in wheat and the primary hub for cotton.)
-South Australia: 9.2 million tonnes
(Massive recovery year for barley and lentils.)
-Victoria: 10.4 million tonnes
(Record-breaking yields for barley and pulse crops.)
-Queensland: 3.9 million tonnes
(Record winter crop; major producer of chickpeas and sorghum.)
