Iran: How Bolton tricked Clueless UK Conservatives into Confrontation with Tehran
Simon Tisdall at The Guardian explains the difference between Socialist Spain and the disorganized Conservatives in control of UK on foreign policy.
US national security adviser John Bolton tried to hoodwink both of them about the Grace I, a Panamanian-flagged oil tanker carrying Iranian petroleum through the Straits of Gibraltar. Spain monitored the tanker but declined to intervene because it remained in international waters.

‘Earthquake in criminal world’: Brazen assassination of 2 ‘Israeli mafiosi’ caught on VIDEO
A notorious Israeli underworld figure and his bodyguard were gunned down in a brazen broad-daylight shootout inside a Mexico City restaurant by cartel-linked killers authorities believe to be hired by Israeli organized crime.
Israeli crime boss and convicted murderer Ben Suthi and his bodyguard (and fellow underworld figure) Alon Azulay were murdered in a hail of bullets as they sat at a restaurant in Mexico City’s upscale Artz Pedregal shopping center on Wednesday. The killing was most likely “a settling of scores in the Israeli mafia,” according to a spokesman for the Mexico City prosecutor’s office. A total of 44 shots were fired during the altercation, according to authorities, and it was captured on multiple CCTV cameras.
