This article was originally published by Zoey Sky at Natural News.  A major new Pew Research Center poll shows that in 32 out of 36 countries surveyed, the majority of people now view Israel unfavorably. On average, 67% of adults across these nations hold negative opinions, with only 25% having a positive view. This marks a sharp and historic decline in Israel’s global reputation. The most intense negative feelings come from countries like Turkey (97% unfavorable), Pakistan, Malaysia, and Indonesia. But the shift is also dramatic in Western nations that have long been Israel’s closest allies. For example, unfavorable views rose to 60% in the U.S., 69% in the U.K., and 79% in Australia, showing that support is eroding even among traditional friends. The ongoing war with Iran, which began in late February and disrupted global oil supplies, is seen as a major tipping point. Combined with Israel’s military campaign in Gaza—which has led to at least 73,000 Palestinian deaths and the destruction of 81% of buildings in the area—the violence has fueled international anger and condemnation. A person’s political ideology heavily influences their opinion of Israel. In the United States, the gap is huge: 83% of liberals hold unfavorable…

BANGOR, Maine — It’s judgment day for Graham Platner, the embattled Democratic Senate candidate in left-leaning Maine who is aiming to oust longtime Republican Sen. Susan Collins in a crucial race that’s among a handful that will determine if the GOP holds its slim Senate majority in the midterm elections.Platner, an oyster farmer and military combat veteran who is backed by Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and other top progressive champions, is facing a slew of controversies, which could make his expected Democratic primary victory in Maine much more interesting than originally expected.Meanwhile, one week after President Donald Trump’s endorsement-winning streak in high-profile Republican primaries was snapped, the president’s immense clout over his party is facing another key test in South Carolina’s GOP gubernatorial nomination face-off.Those two ballot box showdowns will take top billing and grab plenty of national headlines as Maine and South Carolina, along with Nevada and North Dakota, hold primary elections on Tuesday.PLATNER TO SUPPORTERS: ‘MAINE, YOU HAVE MY BACK’ Platner has been playing defense the past month, amid mounting controversy.

Tim Walz and Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison to the Justice Department’s fraud division for a potential criminal investigation over alleged fraud in federally funded social services programs.Vance made the announcement during an appearance on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime,” when he was asked about a report released by the House Oversight Committee alleging that state officials, including Walz and Ellison, were warned of fraud in the state but did not take action to stop it in part because of litigation threats and concerns about being accused of discrimination.”We’re certainly going to investigate this, Jesse, and I guess now I can make a bit of breaking news because I left the White House to come here to do this interview with you. And before I did, we actually referred this particular case to the Department of Justice for a full criminal investigation. We are not going to do what the Biden administration did and make judgments of the law before all the facts are in,” Vance said.MINNESOTA FRAUD REPORT ACCUSES STATE AG OF ‘INCOMPETENCE, WILLFUL BLINDNESS OR WORSE’…

The fight doesn’t end with the last shot. Here’s what you need to do in the moments after a defensive shooting.Most of the conversation in the concealed carry world centers on the fight itself: draw speed, shot placement, threat assessment and the mechanics of stopping a threat. That’s essential training, and none of it should be shortchanged. Nevertheless, there’s another aspect that doesn’t get nearly enough attention:What happens in the minutes after the shooting stops, before the first squad car rolls onto the scene?The gap between the last shot fired and the moment a badge walks through the door can get you killed, not by the bad guy, but by a responding officer who doesn’t know yet that you’re the good guy.The Arvada, Colorado, incident illustrates this with brutal clarity.A deranged gunman with a vendetta against law enforcement showed up at a shopping center and ambushed an Arvada police officer, killing him. Other officers nearby failed to engage. A Good Samaritan named John Hurley ran toward the threat, engaged the gunman and stopped him. Five of six rounds connected. The attacker went down.By any measure, Hurley did everything right in the fight. Then, things went wrong.After neutralizing the shooter, Hurley…

The natural tension that comes with interviewing any politician for television – but especially this president, who can dominate this kind of sit-down – calls for split-second judgments.Having interviewed Trump numerous times – especially in a high-stakes session two weeks before the election, at his invitation – gives me a certain perspective.TRUMP STORMS OFF ‘MEET THE PRESS’ INTERVIEW, RIPS WELKER, ABC, CBS, CNN AS ‘CROOKED’ Things did not end well with Welker:”You’re crooked, your press is crooked, And ‘Meet the Press’ is crooked.””To be fair, I’m not crooked.””Really?
