China Turning on Tehran over Hormuz?

CENTCOM confirmed a new round of airstrikes against Iranian targets late on Wednesday, following Trump’s comments on further talks.

Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has plummeted following renewed violence in the region, according to a UK-based maritime data firm.

Explosions in southern Iran after Tehran hits Gulf states and Jordan

  • Explosions have been reported across southern Iran by state media and local officials, including near the Bushehr nuclear facility.
  • Despite the blasts, a US official has told Al Jazeera that the country’s army has not carried out strikes on Iran in the last several hours.
  • Iran said earlier that it attacked “US bases and strategic centres” in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Qatar after the US bombedIranian cities for a second consecutive night.

China Demands Iran ‘Follow Through’ on U.S. Peace Deal, Signaling Frustration with Horm

The US military refutes claims by Iranian state media regarding shipping routes in the Strait of Hormuz, affirming that Iran does not control the strategic waterway.

In a post on X, CENTCOM said that “Iranian state media claims that transit through the Strait of Hormuz is only permitted through routes designated by Iran” is a “CLAIM” and that the “TRUTH” is “Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz”.

The command further stated that “since early May, US forces have helped facilitate the successful transit of more than 800 commercial vessels and 380 million barrels of crude oil through the vital international trade corridor”.

China Turning on Tehran over Hormuz?

The Chinese Foreign Ministry lamented the resurgence of violence between Iran and the United States on Wednesday, urging both countries to “follow through on their memorandum of understanding” and “avoid resorting to force.”

Demands Iran ‘Follow Through’ on U.S. Peace Deal

China regularly condemns America for alleged belligerence on the geopolitical stage; the Foreign Ministry choosing to demand equal respect for their current peace agreement from Washington and Tehran is notable, however. Beijing referred to the hostilities as a matter that its close ally and prominent oil supplier Iran was equally responsible for rather than blaming the United States exclusively.

Speaking to reporters during her regular briefing, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning stated that China was “closely following” recent hostilities related to Iran and discouraged military escalation.

“Reigniting the conflict does not serve any party’s interests. Military means cannot solve the fundamental issue,” Mao asserted. “We call on the U.S. and Iran to follow through on their memorandum of understanding, resolve disputes through dialogue and negotiation, and avoid resorting to force.”

Mao’s statement did not blame the United States for the violence or exonerate Iran for its participation.

Somali Gangsters Call Law Enforcement ‘Dangerous’

Here’s a video

More proof that Muslims should never be allowed into any country that wants to remain civilised.

Fact is, if the U.S. hadn’t imported these third world savages, there would be 12 fewer gangs in Minneapolis, not to mention the billions in fraud that would have been saved. Nothing Somalis contribute to the US that is a net positive for the country…

CAIR-MN Calls Sheriff’s Somali Gang Warning ‘Dangerous’ as Law Enforcement Tracks 12 Somali Gangs in Twin Cities Metro

A Ramsey County sheriff’s warning about Somali gangs in the Twin Cities drew criticism from CAIR-MN and Minneapolis City Council Vice President Jamal Osman, even as one law enforcement officer said he is tracking 12 Somali gangs in the metro area and another called for “law enforcement, community members, and faith leaders” to work together on a solution.

Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher is facing pushback after using his social media show, Live on Patrol, to address what KSTP-TV described as a serious Somali gang problem in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.

KSTP-TV reported that Fletcher’s video received tens of thousands of views and prompted backlash from Somali community leaders. Reporter Ben Henry said the station had questions for Fletcher and was told the sheriff was available for an interview, but when the crew arrived at the sheriff’s office that morning, they were told he was not available.

In the video, Fletcher said, “Before you start fixing the problem, first you have to identify what it is. We got a huge list of criminal activity, but having said that, we’re not indicting the whole community.”

KSTP described Fletcher’s remarks as addressing Somali gang violence and reported that law enforcement officials were investigation weekend shootings in Minneapolis involving gang members. One shooting killed a man, while another wounded multiple people and reportedly involved automatic gunfire.

Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office Somali gang investigator Jama Shine said, “This needs to stop.”

Another officer said, “Right now, I’m tracking 12 different Somali gangs in the metro.” Continue reading Somali Gangsters Call Law Enforcement ‘Dangerous’

Not a problem for Trump. He’s eager to make ‘deals’.

Trump Says He Will Remove Syria from State Sponsors of Terrorism List

The placement of 700,000 Syrians is a “Strategic resource” for Syria. Not for Germany.

“I think I will. Why wouldn’t I? He’s done a great job,” Trump responded when reporters asked if Syria could be stricken from the list.

Trump said Syria has become “very stable” under Sharaa’s leadership and “we’re proud of that.”

Trump also suggested Syria “could help with Hezbollah,” the Iran-backed Lebanese terrorist group that has attacked Israel from both Lebanese and Syrian soil.

President Trump has spoken highly of Sharaa since their first meeting at the White House in November 2025, despite the Syrian leader’s history as a member of al-Qaeda and his time in prison after being captured by U.S. forces in Iraq. Trump described Sharaa as a “young, attractive guy” and a “tough guy” with a “very strong past” after that meeting.

Sharaa led an alliance of insurgents and jihadis to overthrow Syrian dictator Bashar Assad in December 2024, bringing a surprise end to the long and brutal Syrian civil war. Sharaa has shown interest in mending fences with the United States and European nations and his government is not overly fond of Assad’s former patrons, Russia and Iran.

Trump lifted what sanctions he could from Syria by executive order in June 2025, and a few months later Congress permanently repealed sanctions that were imposed against the Assad regime. The repeal was unconditional, but Congress included a requirement for periodic reports on counter-terrorism and human rights progress under Sharaa’s government.

The Treasury Department removed Syria from its list of “Specially Designated Global Terrorists” in November 2025, at the same time the United Nations removed Syria from its own sanctions list.

As of Wednesday, Syria remains on the State Sponsors of Terrorism (SST) list, a much more exclusive document that currently names only three other nations: Cuba, North Korea, and Iran.

Syria has rejected Germany’s plan to return over 700,000 Syrian refugees to their home country. “We categorically reject any attempts at forced deportation,” said Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani. He added that Syrians in Germany are a “strategic resource” rather than a burden.

Finish the job? Trump declares the Iran ceasefire OVER

Update:

Iran hit by ‘heaviest wave of air strikes’ since ceasefire

US officials say any attempt to shut down the Strait of Hormuz will trigger a military response.

  • The US has bombed Iran again, with explosions reported in cities along the Strait of Hormuz, including Bushehr, Chabahar, Bandar Abbas, Sirik, Jask, and Abu Musa Island.
  • The attacks have killed at least one person in the city of Iranshahr and caused widespread power outages in Chabahar.
  • US President Donald Trump says the attacks are in “retribution” for alleged Iranian attacks on ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump Says Iran Ceasefire ‘Is Over,’ Calls Tehran’s Leaders ‘Scum’

President Donald Trump declared Wednesday that he considers the Iran ceasefire effectively finished, saying he no longer believes negotiations with Tehran are worthwhile

“I think it’s over. I don’t want to deal with them… They’re sick, vicious, violent people. It’s a waste of time. They’re LIARS.”

US Military Releases Footage of Powerful Strikes Against Iran (VIDEO)

US President Donald Trump has once again turned his focus to Kharg Island, Iran’s main oil export hub, after declaring an interim ceasefire with Iran “over” and warning the US was preparing more strikes.

Trump told the Financial Times that his “preference would be to take the oil” in Iran and that US forces could seize Iran’s export hub at Kharg Island.

Kharg is a 22-square-kilometre (8.5-square-mile) coral outcrop in Iran’s Bushehr province. Closely guarded by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), entry to the island is restricted to those with official security clearance.

Kharg processes 90 percent of Iran’s total oil exports, handling approximately 1.5 million barrels every day.

On March 14, Trump announced that the US Air Force had bombed Iranian military facilities on the island.

“For reasons of decency, I have chosen NOT to wipe out the Oil Infrastructure on the Island. However, should Iran, or anyone else, do anything to interfere with the Free and Safe Passage of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz, I will immediately reconsider this decision,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Geert Wilders Wilders Blasts Dutch Police For ‘Surrendering’ to Moroccan World Cup Mayhem

The PVV boss said: “This is surrender and only cowards surrender. If the Dutch authorities and police are not fighting crime from Moroccans, they might as well invite the Moroccan king and submit.

Wilders Blasts Dutch Police For ‘Surrendering’ to Moroccan World Cup Mayhem

Dutch Party for Freedom leader Geert Wilders has accused the Dutch police and government of being “cowards” in the face of unrest from marauding Moroccan football fans.

Chaotic scenes broke out on the streets of Amsterdam and The Hague again over the weekend after Morocco defeated Canada over 5,000 miles away in Texas. Large groups of young Moroccan heritage males took to the streets, clashing with police, throwing fireworks at people, and driving recklessly, including in areas with young children.

However, despite the unrest, police took little action, apparently concerned that they could not handle the hordes of young male North African mobs. Yet the commander of the riot squad, which was called up on Saturday, Sander van der Hulle, defended his officers taking a hands-off approach towards much of the hooliganism.

Speaking of fireworks being shot off into crowds and the dangerous driving in areas with children, Van der Hulle told De Telegraaf: “If you start enforcing against minor offences, it becomes war.”

“We carefully choose when to enforce and when not to. For relatively minor offences, such as the situations you describe, we sometimes decide not to intervene to prevent the situation from getting out of hand,” the riot squad commander added.

This explanation did not impress sovereigntist Party For Freedom leader Geert Wilders, who told Breitbart London that it amounted to a “surrender”.

Geert Wilders: “Islam is evil, violent, hateful, barbaric and incompatible with freedom. Mohammed was a pedophiIe!”

Continued below the fold

Geert Wilders is one of the Netherlands most famous, influential and controversial politicians. Visegrad24 founder Stefan Tompson sits down for a rare interview with the Dutch firebrand in the The Hague to discuss mass migration, remigration, the grooming gang scandal and right wing politics in general.
