  • Harris tonight: Support for Israel ‘unwavering’

    During the night, US President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris had a meeting in the “situation room” about the conflict in the Middle East and the threat posed by Iran.

    Right now, the US is preparing for a possible attack and strengthening its presence in the region. The Pentagon has stated that more warplanes and warships are being sent to the area.

    After today’s meeting Kamala Harris signed X that Israel has their “unwavering support”.

    “While we are preparing support for Israel’s defense against Iran and Iran-backed terrorist groups, we are also working to reduce tension in the region and prevent escalation,” she writes.

  • Escobar souvenirs may be banned

    Souvenirs depicting the late drug lord Pablo Escobar should be banned in Colombia, according to a new bill.

    According to the bill, whoever sells souvenirs depicting Escobar or other criminals must be fined the equivalent of 18,000 Swedish kronor. Even people who wear caps, t-shirts and other garments with the drug baron’s image should be fined.

    The proposal has received both rice and praise: For souvenir sellers, it is a major source of income.

    – Many people make a living from this, says Rafael Nieto, who sells fridge magnets and t-shirts with a picture of Pablo Escobar’s Colombian ID card.

    Those who are in favor of the ban, on the other hand, believe that it is time to wash away the country’s reputation as a hangout for mafia bosses.

    – There are other ways to sell our country to the world, says Cristian Avendaño from Colombia’s Green Party, which drafted the bill.
