    From FRANCE- For the 7th year in a row Finland was voted the happiest country in the world, while the US dropped to 23rd, its lowest spot since the poll began. There has been strong criticism of Netanyahu in the Israeli press. Canada is to halt all arms shipments to Israel, joining Belgium, Italy, and the Netherlands- however the US supplies 69% and Germany supplies 30% of all Israeli weapon imports.

    From GOING UNDERGROUND- Afshin spoke with Daniel Levy, a peace negotiator who was part of the Taba and Oslo summits, and currently serves as the president of the US/ Middle East Project. They discuss the role that the US plays in enabling the Israeli war in Palestine. Levy says that the US has global political framing for the Middle East region, with Israel and a few Arab states as allies. And that the US has a history of colonizing many parts of the world besides North America. He says America has the leverage to cease the war but it would never happen with a single phone call, but sustained actions. They discuss the possibility of a regional war beyond US/UK bombing in Yemen, how Israel has developed impunity for actions in the region, and the need to break the US and West monopoly on ending conflicts. Does the world need an effective World Court, and should the global south be included in creating worldwide order.

    From GERMANY- The US government has found no evidence of brain injuries from the so-called Havana Syndrome, first alleged in Cuba in 2016. Farmers across Europe are continuing their road blockage protests against what they say is too much government overreach, environmental regulation, and forced importation of duty-free Ukrainian produce flooding their markets. A climate researcher and delegate to the climate change conferences from Stanford University describes what the world might look like in 20-30 years if we continue on our current environmental path.

    From GERMANY- The IEA says a near record high release of methane was observed last year. Relief supplies in Gaza have been bombed by Israel.

    "There are very few places, virtually no places obviously in the corporate media apparatus that you can tell the truth to challenge corporate tyranny and this US imperialist narrative of constant regime change all around the world. It is a very dangerous and slippery slope that we are on and I just think it is time that we take a step back and actually fund the journalists that we want to see."

    From GERMANY- In Europe public opinion about the war in Ukraine showed only 1 in 10 believing that Ukraine can win the war with Russia and 41 percent want Europe to pressure Ukraine to negotiate with Russia. For the third time the US vetoes a UN security council resolution demanding a ceasefire in Gaza. Recent figures from the committee to protect journalists found that 83 Palestinian journalists have been killed since October 7th- Jody Ginsberg explains that this is the most journalists killed in any war over the past 30 years and that none of those journalists were militants.

    From FRANCE- There have been 2 days of hearings in London on a request for an appeal to the extradition of Julian Assange to the US for espionage. There were large demonstrations and Julian's wife Stella, spoke to the crowds about the precedents that will be set allowing the criminalization of the free press. The US veto against the ceasefire in Gaza has left the US isolated for the third time, giving the green light to continue.

    From JAPAN- At the Fukushima nuclear plant there have been more serious radioactive leaks to workers and the environment. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu says his is committed to continuing the war until Hamas is completely eliminated leading to more protests by Israeli citizens. Brazilian President Lula da Silva compared Israeli actions to the Nazi regime.

At the International Court of Justice an American lawyer spoke out against the history of Israel occupying Palestinian territory. An Israeli politician said on television that all Palestinians over the age of 4 should be subject to collective punishment to force them to dislike Hamas. A UN Human Rights official says they have received information that Palestinian women and children have been arbitrarily executed in Gaza. The Irish Foreign Minister says that the veto power in the UN Security Council has no place in the 21st century, as the US has done 3 times to prevent an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
