Angry President Trump Vows Jail Time For Anyone Who Dares To Tell The Truth About How Badly America’s Munitions Stockpile Has Been Depleted In Iran War

 Trump Hunts The Leakers As America’s Iran War Exposes A Crippled Defense Industry Unable To Replace Critical Missiles At The Rate They Are Fired Into The Middle East

Whether or not President Trump confronted Pete Hegseth exactly as is being reported today is almost beside the point, because one fact is becoming impossible to conceal: critical American munitions stockpiles have been dangerously depleted. Six months of sustained warfare with Iran, combined with years of supplying Ukraine and supporting military operations across the Middle East, have exposed the enormous gap between Washington’s appetite for war and America’s ability to manufacture the weapons required to fight one, and America's enemies are starting to smell the blood in the water. How does Trump respond? By calling the whole thing "fake news" and then threatening to put the leakers behind bars.

America's First Muslim Senator? Islam's Growing Political Power

 Prophecy News Watch 6th August 

America's First Muslim Senator? Islam's Growing Political Power Abdul El-Sayed's Michigan primary victory places him one election away from becoming America's first Muslim senator. His rise reflects a broader shift: Muslim communities are building political influence through disciplined organization while much of the church retreats from public life. The question is not whether Muslims may participate, but whether Christians still possess the conviction and courage to shape the nation they inherited. Continue Reading

German airport plunged into emergency shutdown after explosive drone discovered

 A German airport was plunged into chaos after a worker discovered an explosive drone.

The device was found on the apron area used for loading and unloading cargo at Leipzig/Halle airport near a Ukrainian Antonov Airlines aircraft, police documents say. 

The employee caught and held the drone without realising it could be explosive, German media reported. Investigators determined the device was equipped with a detonation mechanism, with initial tests revealing explosive nitrates, according to Bild.

The explosive was believed to be Semtex, a substance used in military and demolition operations. Documents obtained by Welt indicate that a blast was only prevented because the detonator had broken off during flight.

Four Antonov Airlines planes were present at the site when the device was uncovered.

A Debt We Can Never Repay: Why Israel Should Have a Place in Every Christian’s Heart

By David Jeremiah - https://harbingersdaily.com/a-debt-we-can-never-repay-why-israel-should-have-a-place-in-every-christians-heart/

As we’re reminded every Christmas, Mary and Joseph were required to travel to Bethlehem by imperial decree for a Roman census. Luke 2:4 says, “Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David.”

It’s clear why that detail is important, right? God promised the Messiah would be a descendant of David. Both Joseph and Mary were part of that larger family. Both of them were qualified to receive the fulfillment of God’s promise.

But notice how God brought about that fulfillment. A pagan emperor issued a decree, thinking he was merely counting his subjects for taxation purposes—and in doing so he unwittingly opened the door for a seven-hundred-year-old prophecy concerning the village of the Savior’s birth. Joseph, a descendant of David living in Nazareth, was forced to return to his ancestral home. And there in David’s city, David’s greater Son was born—the eternal King who will one day sit on David’s throne forever.

What the Gaza Roadmap Actually Says

by Pierre Rehov - https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/22769/gaza-roadmap-contents

On July 30, US President Donald J. Trump announced that his Board of Peace had obtained an agreement for the disarmament of Hamas and of every other armed group in Gaza. The 15-point roadmap published the following morning promised the transfer of government to the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG), an International Stabilization Force (ISF), an International Verification Committee, and a phased Israeli withdrawal from Gaza tied to certified progress.

The roadmap’s governing formula could hardly be more categorical: “One Authority, One Law, One Weapon.” Gaza would stop being a territory where ministries, terrorist battalions, clan networks and foreign patrons compete beneath the fiction of Palestinian government.

Everything then turns on a question the announcement left unanswered: Has Hamas agreed to surrender the power and weaponry that have defined it for decades, or only to change the label on them?

Israel strikes south Lebanon after first evacuation warning in weeks

  One person has been killed in an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon, the country's health ministry says, after the Israeli military said it was responding to a "blatant violation of the ceasefire" by the Iran-backed group Hezbollah.

A man died and 12 other people were injured when the roof of a prayer hall at the cemetery of the town of Tibnin was hit, according to Lebanese media.

Strikes were also reported to the west in the town of Mansouri, where the Israeli military issued its first evacuation order for more than a month.

Hezbollah has not commented on the events, which came as Israeli and Lebanese officials attended US-sponsored talks in Rome aimed at maintaining the ceasefire.

In late June, the three countries agreed a trilateral framework that should see the Israeli military gradually withdraw from territory it is occupying in southern Lebanon in exchange for the disarmament of Hezbollah.

Two weeks ago, the Lebanese army was allowed to deploy to one of the first "pilot zones", after Israeli troops pulled out of the village of Zawtar al-Gharbiyeh.

Hezbollah has rejected the agreement, saying the provisions linking Israel's withdrawal to the group's disarmament crossed "all red lines".

The Israeli military announced that it had begun carrying out "precise strikes" in southern Lebanon on Wednesday afternoon, about 30 minutes after its Arabic spokesperson had told residents of Mansouri to evacuate ahead of "forceful action" there.

Both statements accused Hezbollah of violating the ceasefire but gave no further details.
