US Secretary of State M. Pompeo expected to clarify ties between Al Qaeda and Iran

 

Tuesday, January 12, 2021. Washington plans to issue a statement saying Iran has links to the al-Qaeda terrorist organization. The US wants to disclose information that Tehran has financed and has links to terrorist organizations. Iran is a target for the Washington administration and faces many political challenges, especially during Donald Trump's presidency.

According to US intelligence, Abu Muhammad al-Masri was involved in the masterminds of the bombing of US embassies in Africa. These and other allegations related to Tehran's support for the Houthi militia in Yemen and Hezbollah, which the United States recognizes as a terrorist organization, have prompted the United States to come up with a plan to prove Iran has links to terrorist organizations.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo plans to make clear Iran's links to al-Qaeda. This comes as Trump's term is less than 8 days away. President-elect Biden is facing amid tensions between Tehran and Washington deteriorates, but Secretary-General Pompeo is expected to elaborate on the relationship between Iran and al-Qaeda and disclose their information. Issues expected to disclose Pompeo include the killing of a suspected second leader of Alqaeda Abu Muhammad al-Masri who was killed in Iran.

During his term, Trump tried to force Iran to enter into an agreement to reduce uranium enrichment in Iran, but that did not work and imposed a series of sanctions. Washington's sanctions on Tehran have been on economics, trade, weapons and politics.

The United States has accused Iran of supporting terrorist groups such as Hezbollah and the Houthi group in Yemen, which Washington plans to recognize as a terrorist organization for the coming weeks. Former United States President George W. Bush has accused Iran of having links to al-Qaeda 9/11 attacks on US skyscrapers. Tensions between the two sides have since escalated and exacerbated by the US airstrikes a year ago killing General Qasem Sulaimani and the assassination of a nuclear scientist late last year.

Tehran will miss a new opportunity to repair a strained relationship between it and the new US president if it is exposed a relationship between al Qaeda and Tehran. Additional sanctions are expected before Trump leaves from the office, which will hamper the resumption of bilateral relations that Tehran is seeking.

Any sanctions on Iran would reduce oil production and economic growth, and the country could face a difficult economic situation. More than $ 7 billion has been frozen in South Korean banks and the United States has ordered that the money not be released to Iran. The only hope for the Iranian regime is to open a new door for Biden resume the nuclear deal withdrawn by Trump in 2018.

Al Gore has history of climate predictions, statements proven false

  Noted climate activist and former Vice President Al Gore, who made headlines this week after he claimed   global warming was "boiling the oceans,"   has a history of making climate-related proclamations later proven to be false. During remarks made Wednesday at the  World Economic Forum summit  in Davos, Switzerland, Gore warned that continued carbon emissions into the atmosphere would destroy the planet and lead to widespread calamities. "We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth," Gore said. "That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees."

Syria's alleged drug traffickers are warned via SMS messaging

  Text messages advising against engaging in the illegal trade have started to arrive for drug traffickers working along Jordan's southern border with Syria. Nine days had passed after a smuggler had been murdered in a strange airstrike in southern Syria when the alerts were sent. “We recognize you. Your every step is being observed.” According to a claimed transcript of the texts made available by the Suwayda24 network of citizen journalists in southern Syria, "Your meetings are being watched." Jordan is looking to work with Damascus to stop the flow of narcotics because it serves as a major conduit for what Arab authorities characterize as a multibillion-dollar trade in the amphetamine known as Captagon. The 360-kilometer border between Jordan and Syria is regularly used to smuggle captagon tablets, and the trade has been expanding since 2018. The majority of the southern region of Syria was retaken by the Syrian military from rebels backed by Arab and western
