UN Nuclear Watchdog , Clashes With Iran for Failing , to Cooperate With Inspectors.
'The Guardian' reports that the West may be teetering on the edge of a renewed confrontation with Tehran over Iran's nuclear program.
The news comes after the United Nations' nuclear watchdog voted to censure Iran for repeatedly failing to cooperate with U.N. inspectors. .
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
vote came after the United States dropped its
objection to the censure, joining European nations.
EU nations had urged the Biden administration to alter
its stance on the matter, claiming that the integrity
of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty was in jeopardy. .
The U.S. has since called for a long-term strategy to be
developed to deal with Iran's nuclear program, stressing
that the terms of the original 2015 deal expire next year.
The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action
(JCPoA) originally saw Western economic
sanctions lifted in exchange for strong
controls over Iran's nuclear program.
However, 'The Guardian' reports that Tehran has
since gradually restricted access for U.N. inspectors,
while also vastly boosting its stock of enriched uranium. .

In a recent address to reporters, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov referred to the United States as an âenemy,â signalling a potential hardening of Moscow's rhetoric. While it remains uncertain if this language reflects an official change in policy, Peskov emphasised that only President Vladimir Putin can make such determinations. The Kremlin spokesman's comments were partly in response to Washington's refusal to allow former US Marine, UN weapons inspector, and RT contributor Scott Ritter to travel to St. Petersburg. Peskov described this as âthe latest manifestation of the rabid campaign to prevent US citizens from interacting with the Russian Federation.â He suggested that such a refusal would only be âunderstandableâ if it were related to Ritter's former intelligence status. âWe are now an enemy country for them â much like they are for usâ Peskov stated, noting that travel restrictions on former intelligence officers to hostile countries are common worldwide.

Homicide and Other Violent Crimes , Declining in Cities Across the US.
'The Guardian' reports that a recent crime analysis found that homicides in major cities across the United States are falling at , âone of the fastest rates of decline ever recorded.".
Thereâs just a ton of places that
you can point to that are showing
widespread, very positive trends, Jeff Asher, AH Datalytics, via 'The Wall Street Journal'.
According to AH Datalytics' sample of nearly
200 cities, murder was down by 20.8% in 2024,
when compared to the same time in 2023.
Some cities, including Washington DC,
New Orleans, Las Vegas, and Milwaukee,
saw murder rates decline by over 30%.
Some cities, including Washington DC,
New Orleans, Las Vegas, and Milwaukee,
saw murder rates decline by over 30%.
The analysis is based on the FBI's Uniform Crime
Reporting program, which consists of data collected
by local law enforcement agencies across the nation.
While the FBI's 2023 report will not be audited or made
official until October, preliminary figures suggest
that murder rates significantly dropped in 2023. .
The latest data suggests that this
year's declines will continue at an even
faster clip, nearing pre-pandemic levels. .
'The Guardian' reports that the latest
data mirrors another drastic decline
in homicides during the 1990s.
Nationally, youâre seeing
a very similar situation to what
you saw in the mid-to-late 90s.
But itâs potentially even larger
in terms of the percentages
and numbers of the drops, Jeff Asher, AH Datalytics, via 'The Wall Street Journal'.
The AH Datalytics data also found that nearly
all other violent crimes saw significant
declines in 2023 compared to 2022. .
The quarterly data in particular
suggests 2023 featured one of the
lowest rates of violent crime in the
United States in more than 50 years, Jeff Asher, AH Datalytics, via 'The Wall Street Journal'

Israeli Ambassador Gilad Erdan made a dramatic statement at the United Nations General Assembly by tearing up the UN Charter in protest just before the assembly passed a resolution supporting full membership for Palestine. The resolution, which received overwhelming support with 143 votes in favour, asked the Security Council to grant full membership to Palestine, currently holding observer status at the UN. Twenty-five countries abstained from the vote, while nine, including the United States and Israel, voted against it. Erdan criticised the resolution as a "clear violation" of the UN Charter and accused it of circumventing the US veto in the Security Council. He described his actions as a symbolic reflection of the assembly's disregard for the principles outlined in the UN Charter.

India's U.N. vote supports Palestine's full membership, drawing fire from Israel. UAE introduces the resolution at UNGA, with 143 votes in favor. Palestine gains the right to speak and participate in U.N. meetings. Israel's ambassador tears up the U.N. Charter in protest, likening the move to admitting "modern-day Nazis." India's move may strain its historically strong ties with Israel.
