Israel Prime Minister Netanyahu Warns Of ‘Resounding Blow’ If Iran Attacks Israel

By -
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned on Wednesday that Israel would strike a “resounding blow” if attacked by arch foe Iran, as regional tensions soar after the US killing of a top Iranian general.

“Anyone who attacks us will receive a resounding blow,” the premier told a Jerusalem conference after Iran launched a salvo retaliatory missile strikes on bases used by US troops in Iraq.

Netanyahu has described the target of last week’s US drone strike — Major General Qasem Soleimani, commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards foreign operations arm — as a “terrorist-in-chief”. (AFP)

Mahendra Singh Gond is due to be hanged next month after he raped the child on June 30 last year in India's Madhya Pradesh district. He raped the girl so badly that he rearranged her insides, then he dumped her body in a jungle area, assuming she was dead.

Victims of domestic violence in New Zealand will now be allowed to take up to 10 days paid leave from work to try to escape the abuse. This is part of a scheme to address the nation’s "shocking" levels of family violence.  Introducing the scheme, which is the first in the developed world, Greens MP Jan Logie, a member of the ruling Labour-led coalition, said the leave would help victims to move homes or settle children into new schools. She said it would also help to protect victims from abusers, who often stalked them at work or tried to sabotage their careers. "This is a win for victims, a win for employers, and a win for society," she said.  "This law is a world first and it will make a significant difference for people trying to escape domestic violence." New Zealand has one of the world's highest rates of domestic violence, a phenomenon that has been blamed on a range of factors, including high levels of alcohol and drug use as...

Reno Omokri, former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has identified the late former military Head of State, Sani Abacha, as the biggest thief in world history, stating that 21-years after, more loots linked to the former dictator were still being uncovered. Omokri was responding to the claim by Nasir El-Rufai, Governor of Kaduna State, that Northerners are rarely arrested for advance fee fraud, popularly known in local parlance as Yahoo Yahoo. Speaking at the Northern Youth summit organised by Northern Hibiscus Initiative in Kaduna on Saturday, El-Rufai said although the North was the most backward and uneducated region in Nigeria, it was a thing of pride that Northerners were rarely arrested for Yahoo Yahoo and other financial crimes. El-Rufai had said: “Nigeria consists of two countries; there is a backward, less educated and unhealthy northern Nigeria, and a developing, largely educated and healthy southern Nigeria. We have to speak the truth to ourselves and ask why is it t...

5 MONTHS OF AGONY BROUGHT TO AN END This young man learnt the hard way that patronizing prostitutes is not a child of God’s way. Ironically, it was after he went to church with his father, later that day, he went out to meet a prostitute. When he got home that evening, his erection remained. As a result, he could hardly stand or move, even sitting was difficult. Sunday was forced to explain his plight to his father who took him to the doctors who could only recommend an operation. They declined and continued making efforts to solve his excruciatingly painful problem. Sunday became housebound for five months because of the permanent erection! His father, a reputable man in Ondo state, recalled that a man had visited The SCOAN with the same problem and was healed and so, he brought his son. When Prophet T.B. Joshua prayed for Sunday, his whole body began to shake. After the prayer, Prophet T.B. Joshua told him to urinate. As Sunday urinated, the pain and poisonous substances left his bod...
