01 | A Grand Memorial for Charlie Kirk in the US

Today the U.S. held an incredibly grand memorial service for Charlie Kirk. It was a rare moment of unity, bridging the left and right with extreme divide. High-profile attendees and speakers included the members of Kirk’s team, President Trump, Vice President Vance, Rubio, and many other senior officials. Kirk’s widow also spoke, vowing to carry on his work and legacy.

The FBI Director also provided an update on the investigation into Kirk’s assassination.

02 | Many Countries “Recognize” the Palestinian State — All Talks with no Actions

Right after a number of countries, including the UK, recognized the Palestinian State, Hamas started acting again. They went on TV to show off, and started killing people on the street.

The UK Prime Minister said Britain’s recognition is conditional: no Hamas participation in the government because Hamas is the terrorist group behind the Oct. 7 massacre.

Everybody knows Hamas and Palestinian government are two sides of the same coin. So this is a purely political soundbite, like the UK’s hollow verbal support for Ukraine that did not turn into real action. When it comes to Palestinian statehood, Britain’s basically powerless.

Canada and Australia made similar statements, but with caveats like “only after a Gaza ceasefire and the release of hostages from the massacre.” which just brought us back to square one, and nothing’s really happening. These countries know Israel will never agree to accept the status quo, so their “recognition” is nothing but a get-out-of-jail-free card for themselves.

03 | Why Are Countries Recognizing Palestine State Now?

Here is the background story: The British King Charles just rolled out the red carpet for President Trump and declared a joint Anglo-American alliance into a new era. Meanwhile, we’re at a tipping point where a global war could break out any second. Xi’s CCP regime hangs by a thread. Western nations are playing a high-stakes game of deception, blurring the lines of friends and foes.

So, why is the Commonwealth making this move now?

❶ To assert the Commonwealth’s influence, so it has leverage at a future “Yalta 2.0” and can secure a bigger share of post-crisis gains. If the UK is seen merely as America’s sidekick, the Commonwealth loses prestige and influence — which would actually weaken the West overall.

❷ Recognizing Palestine is a low-cost political move with big symbolic value. And their declarations come with conditions, full hostage release and zero Hamas participation, which, if met, would leave a shell Palestinian state or a state led by pro-US/pro-Israel leaders.

❸ European countries (including France) face large Muslim immigrant populations and internal far-left movements. If they don’t recognize Palestine now, China could inflame those groups and spark unrest. With the UK and France’s current military, police, and control resources, internal chaos would be a nightmare.

❸ They’re turning the CCP’s Palestine card against the CCP. By “appeasement” with Palestinian State recognition, they can isolate the extremists, expose the CCP’s hidden agents, and clean out the spies in the US and its allies.

❹ The U.S. is backing Israel’s approach: no Palestinian state; expand Jewish settlements in Gaza; root out all Hamas terrorists wherever they hide.

The bottom line is: As long as Hamas isn’t fully eradicated, this “Palestinian statehood” is just a pipe dream. It also strips Hamas and the CCP of a key tool to wage cognitive and propaganda wars, sow division, and create chaos in the West.

04 | The U.S. Is Reclaiming Bagram Airbase — It’s No Longer a Question of If, but How
Reclaiming Bagram Air Base isn’t even a question anymore—it’s about how to make it happen, and they’re gearing up for quasi-military operations. The US is signaling they want to restore the base to its pre-2021 level before its withdrawal (over 10,000 troops) and equip it with Patriot air defense systems. Logistics for this buildup are already underway.

Bagram will become a U.S. foothold inside hostile or semi-hostile Central and South Asian regions, within missile range of both China and Iran.
