Screenshot from German news website Der Spiegel: "Defense Minister Pistorius Considers Debate on International Law Unproductive" - "Defense Minister Boris Pistorius considers the debate over whether the U.S.-Israeli military strikes against Iran violate international law to be unproductive. Speaking on the sidelines of a visit to Singapore, Pistorius said he first needed to listen carefully to the latest statements by Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier. In principle, however, the entire debate is “more of an academic exercise”; the war is underway, and what matters now is that it ends quickly. “The suffering must end, the bombings must end,” the SPD minister demanded in Singapore."

X-Post from the American Jewish Comittee: „A coalition of leading American Jewish organizations, including AJC, @ADL, @AIPAC, @BnaiBrith, @Conf_of_Pres, @UJAfedNY, and @WorldJewishCong today declined an invitation to meet with France's Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Jean-Noel Barrot. We are deeply concerned that France's approach undermines prospects for a mutually negotiated future for Israelis and Palestinians. We are disappointed that our organizations were invited to discuss a policy that appears to already have been finalized rather than being consulted beforehand as partners committed to sustainable peace. By taking such a unilateral step, France not only emboldens extremists, but risks the security of the Jewish people around the globe, along with alienating moderate voices and undermining the credibility of French diplomacy in the region.“

Extrait d'un rapport sur les assistants parlementaites du RN : "Néanmoins, le déroulement de la réunion du 4 juin 2014 décrit par plusieurs députés ayant refusé le systÚme ou ayant quitté le parti depuis ne fait aucun doute. Marine LE PEN avait bien donné comme instruction le 30 juin 2014 aux nouveaux députés de donner une procuration à Charles VAN HOUTTE pour suivre leur dotation budgétaire et de choisir le cabinet AMBOISE AUDIT de Nicolas CROCHET comme tiers-payant. Malgré ses dénégations, elle leur a aussi dit qu'ils n'avaient pas besoin de plus d'un assistant dédié à (leurs) tùches parlementaires et qu'ils allaient laisser le solde de leur enveloppe à la disposition du parti."
