  1. Not sure about Paulina's manager but things were on the heat between Pau and Thalia in 2004 and 2005. The last time they met on stage was on Seleva Vive event in 2005 and you can tell the tension between the two was up to the limit.
  2. Netanyahu's going crazy only to stay in power and avoid charges.
  3. The Day Paulina Rubio Showed Up Unannounced at Thalía's Event and Stole the Spotlight A moment worthy of a pop telenovela! In 2004, Paulina Rubio surprised everyone by showing up at a promotional event for Thalía in Miami, amid the long-standing rivalry the two singers were said to have shared since their days in the group Timbiriche. What the "Golden Girl" considered a spontaneous gesture to greet her former bandmate was reportedly an unexpected visit for Thalía, who did not exactly welcome it with enthusiasm. The anecdote has attracted renewed attention because both singers have spent decades being compared by fans and the media. Although they shared the stage during their teenage years, their solo careers and the differences that emerged between them helped fuel one of the most talked-about rivalries in Mexican pop music. When Did Paulina Rubio Surprise Thalía at Her Event?The incident took place in 2004, when Paulina Rubio was promoting her album Pau-Latina, while Thalía was presenting her greatest-hits album at a nightclub in Miami. According to reports at the time, Paulina arrived at the venue and went to Thalía's dressing room to greet her and wish her luck. However, the visit sparked discussion because the singer of "Amor a la Mexicana" had not expected to run into her at that particular moment. Thalía expressed surprise at Paulina's presence and said she did not understand why she had come, as they did not consider themselves friends. For her part, the "Golden Girl" maintained that she had no intention of taking advantage of her colleague's promotional event or stealing the spotlight. What could have been a simple greeting thus became another chapter in the story of the rivalry surrounding the two stars. Why Was There a Rivalry Between Paulina Rubio and Thalía?To understand the background of this encounter, it is necessary to go back to the 1980s, when both singers were members of Timbiriche. During that period, they experienced personal disagreements that eventually became a frequent topic of conversation among their fans. Years later, Paulina spoke openly about those conflicts during an interview with Yordi Rosado. The singer acknowledged that she had clashed with Thalía but explained that their differences were not solely the result of professional competition. According to Paulina, some of their arguments revolved around romantic relationships and the emotional situations they experienced during their teenage years. She also recalled that Thalía had been an important friend to her for a time. Paulina Rubio and Thalía: Have They Made Peace?Although comparisons between the two artists have followed their careers for decades, Paulina has expressed her willingness on several occasions to put their past differences behind them. In 2021, the singer of "Ni Una Sola Palabra" revealed that she had resumed contact with Thalía through messages and suggested that their differences might gradually be easing. Later, in 2023, Paulina publicly invited her former Timbiriche bandmate to embark on a joint tour. Paulina said she wanted to move beyond the idea that women in pop music must compete against one another and explore the possibility of sharing the stage. So far, however, that invitation has not resulted in an officially announced joint tour. Source (In Spanish)
  4. HEBRON, West Bank (AP) — Israeli soldiers shot and killed two men who the military said had launched an attack near the city of Hebron in the occupied West Bank on Friday morning. At least five people were injured, including some critically. The army said it prevented a "terror attack against Israeli civilians" and that the gunmen carried an M16 rifle and a handgun. It did not elaborate on the target of the alleged attack. There was also no word on the identities of the two dead and those injured. A few hours later, Israel ordered the army to prepare for a full closure of the West Bank. The office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it instructed security forces to immediately cordon off the city of Hebron and prepare to fully close all of the West Bank, starting Friday. The deadly shooting comes as Israeli voters will decide next Tuesday whether to grant Netanyahu yet another term as prime minister — or usher in a new era of Israeli politics. The election comes three years after the Hamas-led attacks on Israel that triggered the war in Gaza. Israel's government has warned of potential attacks by the country's "enemies" in the lead-up to the election. Earlier Friday Israel's far-right national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, known for extremist views, said that the attack shows that Israel needs to restrict the Palestinians' freedom of movement in the West Bank. "The lives of the residents of Judea and Samaria, of the settlers, the lives of the soldiers, the lives of the police officers, the lives of our fighters are a million times more important than freedom of movement," he said, using an Israeli reference to the West Bank. Closures of the West Bank, such as the one ordered Friday, are growing more common in the territory. It's the fourth time in the past month that Israel has imposed restrictions across the area, shutting gates and checkpoints connecting Palestinian villages to major roads. Meanwhile, Israeli roads in the territory remain open to Israeli drivers, including settlers, who can still travel through the area but may face delays. SOURCE
  5. Oct 23 (Reuters) - Seven people were killed and 34 injured on Friday when ‌gunmen opened fire during a funeral at a church in Jordan's Karak governorate, the head of the country's Public Security Directorate told reporters, in a rare attack on the country's Christian minority. Speaking at a press conference in Karak, Major General Abdallah al-Maaytah said most of those wounded in the shooting at the Hamoud Church in Karak were still receiving treatment, and that the hunt for the attackers was ongoing. Interior Minister Mazin Al Farrayeh said the attack had been carried out by "extremists", but that ⁠it was too early to tell whether they had any links to known groups either inside or outside Jordan. There was no immediate claim of responsibility. SOURCE

  7. This happened a lot before, most recently with US-Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh and Gaza's Baptiste hospital.
  8. True. US policies towards Israel and Palestine never change no matter who sits in the White House.
  9. The settlers attacked Palestinians harvesting olives and beat Heidi Levine, a veteran photojournalist. Witnesses said Israeli soldiers did nothing to halt the violence. ABU FALAH, West Bank — Dozens of masked Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian villagers trying to gather their autumn olive harvest on Friday, setting groves on fire and slinging rocks in a coordinated assault that fits a pattern of accelerating settler violence across the occupied West Bank. Also caught up in the attack was Heidi Levine, a veteran photographer for The Washington Post. Levine, wearing a protective vest clearly marked "PRESS" on front and back, was knocked to the ground, kicked repeatedly and stripped of her cameras and phone. She was treated at hospitals in Ramallah and Israel for lacerations across her body and a broken rib, and will need surgery on one hand after a finger was ripped open, exposing bone. Witnesses described a mass-coordinated attack in which dozens of men in black came down from a hilltop settlement near the village of Abu Falah, northeast of Ramallah, where Palestinian families were picking their olives. Video of the incident corroborated the witness accounts. The settlers hurled stones with slings and set the groves on fire, chasing a group of journalists about 80 yards from the scene. Levine described being overtaken by a group of attackers, hit and knocked to the ground. A video taken by another journalist showed her being struck repeatedly while she was on the ground. "They just kept kicking me and kicking me, like probably 50 times," Levine told reporters. Andrey Khrzhanovskiy, a blogger who filmed the assault, said the settlers beat Levine with sticks while the journalists and villagers were forced to retreat. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in statement that the facts of incident "remain unclear and are under investigation." In post on X, he cited competing accounts that hundreds of "Arabs and far-left activists confronted approximately 40 Israeli youths." "We will not allow disputed incidents to be exploited to demonize the hundreds of thousands of law-abiding Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria," Netanyahu said. The Israeli military is investigating the attack, said Lt. Col. Ariella Mazor, chief international spokesperson for the Israel Defense Forces. Matt Murray, executive editor of The Post, issued a statement calling for an investigation. "This morning, a Washington Post photographer, Heidi Levine, was attacked by Israeli settlers while reporting in the West Bank," Murray said. "She was wearing visible markings clearly identifying her as a journalist. While we are relieved that Heidi has received medical care and is safe, we are outraged by this unwarranted attack on a journalist doing her job and urge a thorough investigation and follow-through from authorities." Israeli police officials said they would send investigators to the scene. "Israel Police and the IDF view any act of violence with utmost seriousness, particularly when it involves journalists carrying out their work," they said in a statement. Levine has photographed conflicts across the Middle East and in Ukraine for decades. The attack came 10 days after settlers beat Agence France-Presse photographer Jaafar Ashtiyeh with rifle butts in the northern West Bank village of Aqraba. SOURCE

  19. Israel's foreign minister said on Sunday that the diplomatic accreditation of Dutch officials based in the occupied West Bank would be revoked, after the Netherlands began enforcing sanctions on goods from Israeli settlements. The diplomats have seven days to hand over their Israeli-issued diplomatic papers, Gideon Saar posted on X, adding: "After this period, the diplomatic privileges and immunities granted to them by the State of Israel will expire."

  20. Israeli far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich on Sunday called for Israel to annex parts of the Gaza Strip and southern Lebanon while urging Israeli forces to launch a war against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. Speaking on a podcast hosted by Israeli news outlet Ynet, Smotrich said Israel should extend its territorial control in Gaza at least to the "yellow line" and in Lebanon up to the Litani River. The "yellow line" refers to the area of Gaza currently under Israeli military control following the war that began after Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack on Israel. Smotrich also called for military action in the West Bank, which he referred to by its biblical name, Judea and Samaria. "I think we need to go to war in Judea and Samaria, to dismantle the Palestinian Authority that supports terror," he said. His remarks come as Israeli political leaders from both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing governing coalition and the opposition have opposed the establishment of a Palestinian state. Violence in the West Bank has increased sharply since the outbreak of the Gaza war. Source
  21. I think she's a bit older but I can't prove it she's been around since the 90s.
