Snip:

A senior Iranian official said that Tehran has warned six countries they will face "severe consequences" if they support Washington in a military attack against the Islamic Republic, Reuters reported on 6 April.

"Iran has issued warnings to Iraq, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Qatar, Turkey, and Bahrain that any support for a US attack on Iran, including the use of their airspace or territory by the US military during the attack, will be considered a hostile act," the official stated while speaking to Reuters on condition of anonymity.

The official stressed that such an action "would have severe consequences for those countries," adding that "Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has placed the Iranian armed forces on high alert."

"You're at home and then you hear that Donald Trump maybe wants to invade Canada, and that all the Trumpist values can come and contaminate us," said event organizer and renowned Quebec journalist Alain Saulnier. "What we wanted to do was allow people to get out of their homes and make it clear that they do not want Trump here."

The sentiment resounded from the Maritimes to the Prairies.

The demonstrations came a day after Americans gathered in all 50 states to protest the president's agenda following a dizzying 11 weeks that saw Trump throw up tariff walls, dismantle some government offices and pardon nearly all defendants involved in the attack on the U.S. Capitol in 2021.

“An Israeli official made it clear that Tel Aviv plans to expel the Palestinians from Gaza after the hostages are freed and Hamas is eliminated.”

“On Thursday, The Times of Israel reported that Hamas again offered to release all captives in exchange for a permanent ceasefire. The outlet explained that Tel Aviv has a ‘longstanding rejection’ to this type of deal.”

“When the senior official was asked if Tel Aviv was concerned that resuming the fighting in Gaza will lead to the deaths of more captives, they explained, ‘It doesn’t matter if they die – it does, it’s terrible, but they are suffering.’”

A Palestinian teenager with US citizenship was killed after being shot by an Israeli settler in the West Bank town of Turmus Ayya, Palestinian officials said on Sunday, as tensions continue to escalate amid a surge in settler violence and near-daily confrontations between Israeli settlers and Palestinians across the occupied territory.

Omar Mohammad Rabea, 14, was shot along with two other teenagers by an Israeli settler at the entrance to Turmus Ayya, the town’s mayor, Adeeb Lafi, told Reuters.

“Two of them were transported by ambulance to a nearby medical center and then to the hospital. The army arrived at the scene and detained the third injured boy, who is 14 years old and holds US citizenship,” Lafi said

I emphasised the funny bit. I bet they didn't wish upon a star.

Dow futures fall 1,500 points Sunday as Trump tariff market collapse worsens: Live updates

...a market wipeout to end last week:

• The Dow posted back-to-back losses of more than 1,500 points for the first time ever, including a 2,231-point shellacking on Friday.

• The S&P 500 dropped 6% on Friday for its worst performance since the outbreak of the pandemic in March 2020. The benchmark lost 10% in two days, pushing it to more than 17% below its February record, perilously close to a 20% bear market.

• The Nasdaq Composite entered a bear market Friday — down 22% from its record — after losses on Thursday and Friday of nearly 6% apiece.

Investors did not receive the news over the weekend they were wishing for that the Trump administration was having successful negotiations with countries to lower the rates, or at the very least, was considering delaying the set of so-called reciprocal tariffs due to take effect April 9. The initial unilateral 10% tariff went into effect Saturday.
