Des explosions à la centrale nucléaire de Bushehr en Iran : des attaques contre elle pourraient provoquer une catastrophe nucléaire C'est ce qu'indique "Rosatom", qui construit la centrale nucléaire et en assure la maintenance. La Russie a l'intention d'évacuer son personnel et les travaux de la centrale nucléaire ont été arrêtés. Le directeur général de "Rosatom", A. Likhachev, a déclaré qu'une attaque contre la centrale nucléaire de Bushehr, qui stocke 70 tonnes de combustible nucléaire et 210 tonnes de combustible usé, pourrait provoquer une catastrophe régionale.
Seventy church buildings in the Diocese of Roermond are currently in the process of being closed, Bishop Cornelis Van den Hout, 61, of Roermond, Netherlands, told Nd.nl on March 3. In 2026, he employed a full-time economist to oversee the closure of church buildings. "It's an urgent issue. The financial figures leave us with no other option," Bishop Van den Hout said. He believes that the downward spiral will not stop after the closing of the seventy churches. "At the moment, the diocese has 280 church buildings. Around the turn of the century, we had 360. Occasionally, a church would be closed in the previous century, but until 1981, new ones were still being built." Monsignor Van den Hout added that presiding over the Eucharist in a church "requires a certain number of people — not ten people in a church that can hold several hundred". "Given the current financial situation and declining church attendance, it is inevitable that we will designate one centrally located church building …More
Churches have become so far apart that, more and more, only those who can afford a car (or a round-trip Uber) can attend Mass. That leaves out most of the old, disabled, and just plain poor. Of course, one benefit of that is the attendance numbers decline more and the closure of more churches can be justified. It's "Let them eat cake" instead of the Bread of Life for them (they only put a widow's pence in the collection basket, anyway).
Full article here: Lavrov issues nuclear warning after US-Israeli attacks on Iran Washington’s claims that it defends non-proliferation don’t hold water, Russia’s top diplomat has argued The US-Israeli attack on Iran could spur nuclear proliferation, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has warned. Washington and West Jerusalem say they launched their joint assault on Saturday to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, repeating the justification they used in last year’s attack on Iranian nuclear facilities. On Tuesday, Lavrov criticized Steve Witkoff, special envoy for US President Donald Trump, for calling Iran’s insistence on its right to uranium enrichment unacceptable. Witkoff told Fox News: “We of course responded that the president feels we have the inalienable right to stop you dead in your tracks.” “If this logic is being pushed, I guarantee that powerful forces will arise in Iran seeking exactly what the United States seeks to prevent: to make a nuclear bomb, because …More
Iran maintains that weapons of mass destruction are forbidden under Islam. The late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, assassinated in the opening phase of the current hostilities, issued a spiritual decree against nuclear arms in the 1990s. Tehran denies Israeli claims that it secretly seeks nuclear capability in violation of the fatwa.
Mon Mar 2, 2026 - 6:31 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — The Diocese of Arlington is investigating the cause of canonization for a father who heroically gave his life while saving his son in a tragic accident. Tom Vander Woude, a father of seven boys and former athletic director at Christendom College, plunged into a septic tank on his family farm in September 2008 to rescue his youngest son, Joseph (Josie), 20, who has Down syndrome and had fallen in. Vander Woude held his son above the sewage in the near seven-foot-deep tank until rescuers could pull Josie out, even while his own lungs filled with toxic gases, causing him to succumb to the conditions himself at age 66. Joseph recovered quickly from the incident and still lives with his mother Mary Ellen in their farmhouse and, according to the Arlington Catholic Herald, still serves Holy Mass at their local parish. Tom Vander Woude and family Seventeen years later, the witness of Vander Woude still resonates within the Christendom College …
A giant art sculpture cast from the body of a dead humpback whale is being displayed during Lent from February 22 (1st Sunday of Lent) to March 22, 2026 (Passion Sunday), in St. Victor’s Cathedral, a historic gothic Catholic church in Xanten, in the Diocese of Münster, Germany, below last row left. The 46-foot-long sculpture is the fruit of the “Cast Whale Project,” a creation by the Israeli artist Gil Schachar, below last row left. Auxiliary Bishop Rolf Lohmann, last row right, supported the work and presided over a “service” around the enormous cetacean, above and below first row. The Diocesan paper, Kirche und Leben (Church and Life), published a piece promoting the art work, which reads: “With this stranded dead animal, we essentially have the entire message of death and resurrection vividly before us. It is not a coincidence that the art installation is taking place in Xanten Cathedral during Lent. It is intended to encourage us to focus on the question of responsibility for …
The stabbing of two people in Edinburgh on Monday morning—allegedly carried out by a Somali migrant—has reignited calls for Britain to leave the Strasbourg-based European Convention of Human Rights (ECHR), which is routinely used to block deportations and undermines public safety. Tory MP Neil O’Brien pointed to a similar case last year in which a Somali national was allowed to remain in Britain despite being jailed for violence and wielding a blade. His deportation was blocked under Article Three of the ECHR after he argued that, as a member of a particular clan, he could face persecution if returned to Somalia. O’Brien argued that “until we leave ECHR and start deporting such people, we will not keep the public safe.” Former MP Bob Seely said at the time that the case of the Somali migrant who successfully fought deportation raised a series of questions, not least: ~ Why is our country a dustbin for foreign criminals? ~ Why does it matter what tribe he is from? ~ Why don’t our …
For those that can't access RT Trump to cut off ‘all trade’ with Spain The US president has said that doesn’t “want anything to do with” Spain after US forces were banned from joint military bases The US will suspend all trade with Spain over Madrid’s decision to deny the US permission to use its joint military bases to attack Iran, President Donald Trump has announced. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has condemned Trump’s “unjustified and dangerous” intervention against Iran. Speaking at the White House on Tuesday, Trump said that “we’re going to cut off all trade with Spain,” and that he doesn’t “want to have anything to do with” the Mediterranean nation. Trump did say when his supposed trade embargo would come into effect. On Monday, Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said that his government would not allow the US to use Naval Station Rota or Moron Air Base – both of which are shared by Spanish and American forces – in its ongoing war with Iran. Albares …More
03/03/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. For several years now, I have been writing about the impending financial crisis, which has still not materialized. Although cracks are visible—for example, in the prices of precious metals—there is still no crisis. Not that I am longing for one, but since it is imminent, I would like to know what it might look like. Ernst Wolf, a Chinese-born German author of books on international finance, gave an interview to kla.tv that paints a picture of the possible changes in the future financial situation in the world. Despite their alleged rivalry, governments are working together to transfer the world power completely to wealth managers like BlackRock. According to Ernst Wolff, this is happening worldwide through the roll-out of a digital financial system. He explains the role of several governments and regions that are taking part in this roll-out. But the architects and guardians of this coming digital prison are not sure if this system is going …
"5. Oh, night that guided me, Oh, night more lovely than the dawn, Oh, night that joined Beloved with lover, Lover transformed in the Beloved! 6. Upon my flowery breast, Kept wholly for himself alone, There he stayed sleeping, and I caressed him, And the fanning of the cedars made a breeze. 7. The breeze blew from the turret As I parted his locks; With his gentle hand he wounded my neck And caused all my senses to be suspended. 8. I remained, lost in oblivion; My face I reclined on the Beloved. All ceased and I abandoned myself, Leaving my cares forgotten among the lilies."

Leo XIV appointed on November 26 the Indian Carmelite Fr Joshy George Pottackal, 48, as Auxiliary Bishop of Mainz, Germany. He will be ordained a Bishop on March 15. Monsignor Pottackal was born in the southern Indian state of Kerala. He became a German citizen in 2014, after living in Germany for ten years. On March 2, he told the Substack.com-Account 'The Pillar' that his appointment can be seen as a stance against the alleged "growing racism" and "xenophobia in Germany": "Immigration is a part of Germany, and therefore immigrants are a natural part of all areas of society." Furthermore, he presented himself as an opponent of the Apostolic liturgy, faith and morals. "I like that priests in Germany have more freedom to add personal and individual touches to church services." He did not participate in the heretical German synod: "I have been following it closely over the years." His opinion: "I think it is a positive that the synodal way led to quicker reforms and brought about a change …More
This appointment is Rome's approval of the German Synodal while officially calling for caution. You can see the pattern. A priest in the Apostolic Church Acts in persona christi, denying himself. In the Synodal Church it is all about the individual, innovation (non servium) promoted for one and all.
A viral video captures the moment an Iranian ballistic missile outmaneuvers multiple interceptors over central Israel, leading to a tragic impact in Beit Shemesh. This Iranian ballistic missile strike on March 1, 2026, marks the deadliest event in the current conflict, claiming nine lives. We analyze the "saturation tactics" used by the IRGC to overwhelm the Arrow-3 and David's Sling systems. Experts from the CSIS Missile Defense Project note that as Iranian ballistic missile technology evolves with high-speed agility, the cost-to-kill ratio for defenders is becoming unsustainable. In this video you will see: 1. Analysis of the "Fattah" maneuverable re-entry vehicle (MaRV) and its terminal agility. 2. Aftermath of the direct hit on the Beit Shemesh synagogue and shelter. 3. Nighttime footage of the "cat-and-mouse" game between the missile and 10+ interceptors. 4. Why saturation warfare is dropping interception rates below 90% in high-volume waves. Expert Insight: Firing 20 interceptors …More
Today, Leo XIV received a delegation from the ecumenical 'World Council of Churches', reports Oikoumene.org. The delegation included the German lay bishop Heinrich Bedford-Strohm, the Armenian archbishop Vicken Aykazian, the Baptist preacher Merlyn Hyde Riley, and the Protestant preacher Jerry Pillay. According to Pillay, Leo XIV stressed "the need for visible Christian unity, recognising the challenges this presents even within the Roman Catholic Church due to the existence of different and diverse views". Pillay said that Leo XIV affirmed that, "while our task is not to build a Christendom yet Christians must work together in unity to heal and restore the world". After the audience, German Bedford-Strohm told Kna.de that Leo XIV had "wholeheartedly agreed upon the necessity to move us towards visible unity". They also agreed that the Christian faith should not be used for political purposes: "Whether it is about aggressive invasion, chasing migrants or oppressing whole groups of people …More

Another article on RT (This is why desperation...) says: Over recent months, Washington and its allies applied a full spectrum of measures: sanctions, diplomatic isolation, attempts at internal destabilization, and information-psychological operations. In early January, the focus was on internal destabilization, echoing a “color revolution” model.
This sounds awfully familiar during the bho era. When officers refused to kill US citizens. Now it's trump's turn. All because these men refused to break the law and kill innocent people in the water! Such evilness will not be forgotten. In heaven or on earth. How many more will be fired or step down? President Trump fires 6 top-level military … How many officers have also stepped down so far? This was back in Oct of 2025. I am not sure if anyone else has stepped down yet. US Military Leadership Exodus: 8 Top Officers … And so you know, the clogged toilets were on purpose. Former Military both men and women including Larry Johnson among others have said, it was a soft "MUTINY"! NO one wants to go to war for trump and bibi. Everyone is sick of the lies and Countries being attacked for their agenda! Let trump send his son's into war. Let's see how he likes it. But don't hold your breath.
