One minute to midnight. This is the phrase that kept coming back to me after returning from the occupied Palestinian territories, as I tried to process the overwhelming persecution I had seen there.  What midnight itself looks like – the moment the clock finally strikes – is too bleak to picture fully, though with the haunting horrors of Gaza now etched into the global conscience, many can likely imagine it all too vividly. A week has passed since that visit. As expected, it stirred little interest in mainstream media circles. So it was something of a relief to see Louis…

Since taking office on Feb. 20, Patel appears to have made three flights on FBI planes to Nashville, Tennessee, where his girlfriend, a country singer, lives; two flights to Las Vegas, where he has a home; and one flight to New York, where he attended a professional hockey game. FBI policy in recent years has mandated that directors fly on government aircraft for security reasons.Ben Williamson, an FBI spokesman, confirmed the reduction in 8:30 a.m. director’s briefings but denied that Patel had arrived late at morning meetings. He said Patel still attends five morning meetings each week — including three that are smaller than the director’s brief.“This change was based on…

Pakistan does not want to respond to India’s attack until its allies have tried diplomacy, a senior Pakistani government source told CNN, as the US, Saudi Arabia and others engage with both sides to try to de-escalate tensions. “Pakistan is giving space for diplomacy,” the source said, denying that Pakistan had struck India. Earlier, Indian officials said Pakistan fired missiles and drones at military sites in India and Indian-administered Kashmir. On Thursday, Pakistan’s military accused India of creating a “hype” about Pakistan attacking 15 locations in India and Indian-administered Kashmir. “It’s such a fantastic and cooked-up story. You can just…
