Lee Anderson, former Tory deputy chairman, faces suspension for contentious comments about Sadiq Khan, accusing "Islamists" of controlling the London mayor.
Refusing to retract his statement led to his expulsion from the party in Parliament.
Khan criticized the silence from Rishi Sunak and the Cabinet over the remarks.
While some Tories deemed the comments "ridiculous," the Muslim Council of Britain welcomed Anderson's suspension.
A Saudi national, Talib A., is identified as the suspect behind the deadly Christmas market attack in Magdeburg, Germany, that left five people dead and over 200 injured. Despite multiple warnings from Saudi Arabia about his extremist views, German authorities failed to respond, even ignoring extradition requests. The suspect, a radical anti-Islamist who had publicly renounced his religion, had prior run-ins with law enforcement in Germany. In this video, we explore the shocking details of the attack, the ignored warnings, and the tragic consequences of inaction.

In a startling turn of events, Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, the leader of the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), has made a surprising appeal for Syrian unity and the lifting of international sanctions. His remarks, made during recent discussions, have sparked intrigue by emphasizing inclusivity and justice for all religious and ethnic groups in Syria, including the Druze community. Jolani, who has led a significant rebellion against the Assad regime, announced plans to disband rebel factions and integrate fighters into a new defense ministry, aiming to establish a centralized, lawful military structure.

In a bold statement, Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, has accused the United States, Israel, and Turkey of orchestrating the downfall of Bashar al-Assad's government in Syria. Khamenei claims that the collapse of Assad's regime is the result of a joint "American-Zionist" plot, with Turkey also playing a significant role. This comes after the rapid advance of rebel forces in Syria, led by the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), which resulted in Assadâs regime losing control over key territories. As the situation unfolds, Khamenei also emphasized that Iranâs role in Syria is strictly "advisory." Watch as we dive into the geopolitical implications of these claims and what it means for the future of the Middle East.

South Korea's impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol was arrested on January 15, 2025, after a failed martial law attempt. This historic event marks the first time a sitting president in South Korea has faced arrest. The arrest follows a tense standoff with investigators who raided the presidential residence. Yoon's attempted power grab, including directing soldiers to storm Parliament, led to charges of insurrection. Despite a previous failed arrest attempt on January 3, Yoon voluntarily agreed to appear before investigators before being detained. His arrest escalates South Korea's political crisis and tensions with his supporters.
