Khawaja Asif, Pakistan's Defense Minister:

"Israel is evil and a curse for humanity, while peace talks are underway in Islamabad, genocide is being committed in Lebanon. Innocent citizens are being killed by Israel, first Gaza, then Iran and now Lebanon, bloodletting continues unabated. I hope and pray people who created this cancerous state on Palestinian land to get rid of European jews burn in hell,"

Netanyahu’s Office:

Pakistan Defence Minister’s call for Israel’s annihilation is outrageous. This is not a statement that can be tolerated from any government, especially not from one that claims to be a neutral arbiter for peace.

IDF: Watch: Hezbollah terrorists launch rockets to northern Israel from a school and concealed a launcher within it

A short while ago, the IDF identified that the Hezbollah terrorist organization launched rockets from a school compound in the Tir Zibneh area in southern Lebanon.

In newly released IDF footage, the heat signature of the launcher is clearly visible as it is transferred in real time within the school grounds, constituting the use of civilian infrastructure for military purposes in violation of international law.

Following the identification, and in accordance with international law, the IDF struck the premises in order to remove the threat to the State of Israel.

JD Vance departs for peace talks with Iran in Pakistan:

We’re looking forward to the negotiation. I think it’s going to be positive.

If the Iranians are willing to negotiate in good faith and extend an open hand, that’s one thing.

If they’re going to try to play us, they’re going to find that the negotiating team is not that receptive.

The President has given us some pretty clear guidelines, and we’ll see how it goes.

Iran's Press TV: Further negotiations are conditional on Israel not attacking Beirut and the Dahiyeh district.

No, he is not talking about the October 7th massacre, he is talking about the efforts to stop Iran's axis of evil from finishing the job.

French President Emmanuel Macron will meet Pope Leo XIV today. Officials have confirmed the situation in the Middle East will be the main topic of conversation.

-two peas in a pot-

"Since the start of Operation “Roar of the Lion”: More than 1,400 Hezbollah terrorists have been neutralized, 4,300 terrorist infrastructure sites have been destroyed, and hundreds of weapons have been located.

Five divisions continue to operate simultaneously in southern Lebanon." - Israeli Defence Force.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of Ukraine:

We sent our military experts to the Middle East, including specialists in interceptor drones and electronic warfare. We demonstrated to some countries how to work with interceptors. Did we destroy Iranian “shaheds?” Yes, we did. Did we do it in just one country? No, in several. And in my view, this is a success.

We also shot down drones with jet engines. This is a very good signal, I think. We showed that this works. Now it is only a matter of time before we begin mass production of interceptors that will destroy drones with jet engines."

-Note that even Ukraine only manages to stop 80-90% of Russian long range drones-

Scumbag nation negotiation tactics: extort concessions before even starting negotiations.

AI: Based on recent reports from March and April 2026, Palantir Technologies is playing a central role in providing AI-driven battlefield intelligence to the United States in the conflict with Iran.

Like its role in targeting: Palantir's AI platform, particularly through the Pentagon's Project Maven, is used to identify and prioritize targets in Iran, with company executives describing it as the first major AI-driven conflict.

Trump: seems skeptical about the upcoming negotiations:

We’re loading up the ships with the best ammunition, the best weapons ever made. If we don’t have a deal, we will be using them — and we will be using them very effectively.

You’re dealing with people that we don’t know whether or not they tell the truth. To our face, they’re getting rid of all nuclear weapons… and then they go out to the press and say, ‘No, we’d like to enrich.’
