Israel Moves to Close Al Jazeera, Ban Its Journalists
Ayoub Kara made the announcement on Sunday during a press conference, where Al Jazeera was barred from attending.
"We have based our decision on the move by Sunni Arab states to close the Al Jazeera offices and prohibiting their work," Kara said, adding that the channel is being used by groups to "incite" violence.

Al Jazeera World - Islamophobia in the USA
The 11th September attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001 was a watershed moment in America's relationship with the Arab world. Amid the grief and US military response that followed, American fear of the threat of international terrorism grew.
George W Bush's so-called 'crusade' against what he labelled the 'axis of evil' fueled suspicion of the Middle East as a whole and as US military action increased and led to the invasion of Iraq in 2003, this fear turned into one of Arabs generally and Muslims in particular.
With the rise of ISIL and the way the mainstream American media reports on it, fear of Islam further increased, tending to demonise Muslims and portray them and their faith as dangerous and violent. Donald Trump is a textbook fascist and we will see whether or not that translates into fascist policies.
Hank Johnson, Democratic Congressman of Georgia Elshamy's investigation uncovers a network of Islamophobic writers, campaigners, funders and politicians who combined to bring about the conditions in which Donald Trump would be elected President in November 2016.

Can the US and Russia De-escalate Rising Tensions? - Inside Story
US President Donald Trump reluctantly approved the new measure, saying the US would side with its allies and friends against Russian subversion and destabilisation. He added that considered the sanctions bill seriously flawed, and he said he was only signing it for the sake of national unity.
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev responded by saying the sanctions end hopes for improving Russia's relations with the new US administration. He said Trump had been "fully outwitted" and his administration had "shown its total weakness by handing over executive power to Congress in the most humiliating way."
Trump then tweeted that the US relationship with Russia was at "an all-time and very dangerous low". "You can thank Congress", Trump said.
As the crisis between the two countries deepens, what's behind this latest escalation?

Ursula Haverbeck Komplettes Panorama Interview März 2015
Es ist wirklich erstaunlich, daß diese scheinbar sehr intelligente Frau den Holocaust verleugnen kann. Sicherlich hat sie, wie wir alle, die Bilder, Dokus und Zeugnisse gesehen und gelesen. Es gibt nichts zu verleugnen. Es war doch eine Tatsache. – @Mark

US Slaps Iran with New Sanctions
The move comes after the White House accused Tehran of not sticking to the “spirit” of the 2015 nuclear deal, despite formally complying with its conditions.
It says the extra measures are necessary because of Tehran's alleged support for the Syrian government, and armed groups in the Middle East.

Model im Minirock erzürnt die Sittenwächter in Saudi-Arabien
Entsprechend heftig sind die Reaktionen, wie die britische „BBC“ berichtete. Kritiker forderten ein Einschreiten der Religionspolizei und eine Bestrafung der Frau. Wenn sie sich nicht an geltende Gesetze halte, habe sie es nicht verdient, in Saudi-Arabien zu leben, hieß es.
Befürworter hingegen feierten die mutige Aktion in einem Land, in dem Frauen immer noch kaum Rechte haben. Sie wiesen darauf hin, dass auch Melania und Ivanka Trump beim jüngsten Besuch des US-Präsidenten in Saudi-Arabien keine Verschleierung trugen.
Eine Twitter-Nutzerin kommentierte: „Wäre sie eine Ausländerin, würden sie von der Schönheit ihrer Hüften und dem Glanz in ihren Augen schwärmen… Aber weil sie eine Saudi ist, fordern sie ihre Verhaftung.“ Die saudische Religionspolizei, die „Behörde für die Verbreitung von Tugendhaftigkeit und Verhinderung von Lastern“, hat angekündigt, den Vorfall zu untersuchen.
