On Monday, two days after six Israel hostages were found to have been executed by Hamas by being shot multiple times from close range, British Foreign Secretary David Lammy of the Labour Party announced the United Kingdom would suspend some arms sales to Israel. Roughly 30 arms sales licenses will be suspended, including parts for parts for fighter jets, helicopters and drones, the BBC reported. “Facing a conflict such as this, it is this government’s legal duty to review Britain’s export licences,” Lammy told Parliament. “This is not a blanket ban, this is not an arms embargo. … the government will not issue export licenses if there is a clear risk that the items might be used to commit or facilitate serious violations of international humanitarian law. It is with regret that I inform the House today, the assessment I have received leaves me unable to conclude anything other than that for certain UK arms exports to Israel, there does exist a clear risk that they might be used to commit or facilitate a serious violation of international humanitarian law.” Yet Lammy also revealed he had started a review of British arms exports to Israel after his party took over in July. He admitted the review “could not arbitrate on whether or not Israel has breached international humanitarian law,” saying lamely, “This is a forward-looking evaluation, not a determination of innocence or guilt.” “The UK’s decision to suspend arms export licenses to Israel is a betrayal of the free world,” Israeli Knesset member Dan Illouz of Likud fired back, as Israel National News reported.  “On October 7th, Hamas brutally slaughtered babies in their cribs, burned entire families alive, and murdered children and parents in their homes. IDF soldiers are fighting and sacrificing their lives not just for Israel, but to defend the entire free world. If Israel doesn’t defeat this terror, you will be next. It’s time for the world to wake up.” Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant echoed, “Deeply disheartened to learn of the sanctions placed by the U.K. Government on export licenses to Israel’s defense establishment. This comes at a time when we fight a war on 7 different fronts – a war that was launched by a savage terrorist organization, unprovoked. At a time when we mourn 6 hostages who were executed in cold blood by Hamas inside tunnels in Gaza. At a time when we fight to bring 101 hostages home. … I stand by our troops and security agencies working with immense courage, professionalism and moral values. We remain committed to defending the State of Israel and her people.” In early August, Jewish members of the Labour Party penned a letter to Prime Minister Keir Starmer in which they accused him of heightening anti-Semitism. “Instead of public outreach to show you understand and empathize with our experiences since Oct 7, your actions have exacerbated the situation,” they charged. “Knowing that Israel serves as a cipher for a loud and increasingly confident section of people to attack Jews, you have chosen to appease instead of confronting bullies.” “Objections to the ICC case were dropped, funding to UNRWA was resumed (effectively aiding Hamas atrocities) and now you propose an arms embargo while Hezbollah is deliberately killing Israeli children,” they continued. “You have also said that the British Government will formally recognize a Palestinian state, seemingly without putting any conditions in place to ensure its democracy or to safeguard its neighbor. This sends a message internationally that the brutal terrorism of Hamas should be rewarded, and domestically that the nasty bullying of MPs (including those in your party) by hate groups is effective.”

NBC News’ Kristen Welker was slammed over the weekend after she falsely claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris attended the dignified transfer of the 13 U.S. service members who were killed during the Biden-Harris administration’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. Welker made the remarks during a segment Sunday morning on “Meet The Press” while discussing with Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) former President Donald Trump’s trip to Arlington National Cemetery (ANC) last week to honor the 13 soldiers who were killed during an ISIS suicide bombing in 2021. Cotton noted that the families of the fallen soldiers “wanted President Trump there.” “They wanted to take those photos,” he said. “You know who the families also invited? Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Where were they? Joe Biden was sitting at a beach. Kamala Harris was sitting at her mansion in Washington, D.C. She was four miles away, ten minutes. She could’ve gone to the cemetery and honored the sacrifice of those young men and women. But she hasn’t. She never has spoken to them or taken a meeting with them.” Welker then interrupted and falsely claimed: “They were with them at the dignified transfer.” WATCH: NBC's Kristen Welker firefights for Kamala Harris against the Abbey Gate families, lying about Harris's attendance at the infamous Dignified Transfer where Biden continuously stared at his watch, which NBC has been forced to walk back. pic.twitter.com/whwzE0TAKT — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) September 1, 2024 The show then issued a statement falsely claiming Welker only “incorrectly implied” that President Joe Biden and Harris were both at the dignified transfer, even though Welker stated that Harris was there. “On our broadcast this morning, we incorrectly implied that both President Biden and Vice President Harris attended the dignified transfer of 13 American service members killed during the Afghanistan withdrawal,” the statement said. “Biden was in attendance but Harris was not.” Welker generated significant backlash with her false claim and faced calls to go on air to apologize for her statement. Lie of the day award on @NBCNews. Host @kwelkernbc claims Kamala met the Gold Star families of the 13 fallen at Abbey Gate. Totally false.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz made an attempt at damage control — following a wave of backlash for refusing to address the six hostages found dead in Gaza — and critics made it clear that they weren’t impressed with his response. Walz was initially approached on Sunday at the Minnesota State Fair, and while the Democratic Party’s vice presidential nominee appeared to be enjoying himself up to that point, he turned his back and walked away the minute someone asked about the six hostages found by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in Rafah. WATCH: Tim Walz was asked three questions at the state fair—the first two were superficial softballs. When asked about the six dead hostages in Gaza? *walks away*pic.twitter.com/26zjsTw01j — Dustin Grage (@GrageDustin) September 1, 2024 Hours later, after video of the exchange spread across social media, Walz attempted damage control and posted a statement about one of the hostages who was among the dead, 23-year-old American-Israeli Hersh Goldberg-Polin. “The anguish of losing a child is something no family should have to endure. Gwen and I send our deepest condolences to the Goldberg-Polin family, after Hamas’ murder of their son Hersh,” Walz said. “Hamas is a brutal terrorist organization — and we condemn their continued atrocities against both Americans and Israelis in the strongest possible terms.” Critics pushed back, however, saying that Walz’s statement was too little too late — particularly after the way he’d responded when asked about the situation earlier. “It took you all day to come up with this? Why didn’t you just answer the question at the State Fair?” one posted. It took you all day to come up with this?

The motorcade for vice presidential nominee Tim Walz crashed on Monday while en route to an event, leaving at least one person moderately injured. The vehicles that crashed were press poll vans that were following the Minnesota Democrat governor around on the campaign trail in Wisconsin while he was traveling on the interstate to the Summerfest grounds in Milwaukee. “Several cars in the Walz motorcade crashed at about 12:57 p.m. — just a moment after I sent the last pool report,” the press pool said in a statement. “A staff member in our press van appears to have a broken arm and is being treated by medics.” “Everyone else is shaken but appears to be in okay condition,” the statement added. “We were violently thrown forward, as our van slammed into the one in front of us and was hit from behind.” A local ABC News affiliate reported that the vehicles that were transporting Walz and Rep. Gwen Moore (D-WI) “continued towards the Summerfest venue despite the incident.” Press and staff vans involved.

People often warn new parents that they will never have sleep or privacy again. However, one thing they forget to mention is that your food will never be your own again, as well. Once your baby has tasted your delicious snacks, you will forever share with them. This baby made that perfectly clear to their mom when they demanded some of her snacks during a car trip. Baby Demands Mom Shares Her Snacks Pexels An Instagram video captured the hilarious reaction of a baby who heard their mama open some snacks. As the video begins, viewers hear the crinkling of a snack bag. Nothing escapes this baby’s sonic hearing. The demands started rolling in. A little hand shoots out from behind the seat and faces itself palm up. The tiny tot then does the “give me” motion, signaling mom to place a snack in their hand. Little whines of impatience ensue when the demand is not met quickly enough. Mom obliges and places a snack in the baby’s hand. However, this baby demanded more than just one snack. Within seconds, the treat disappears, and the hand reemerges for another round. The little “Ohhh” and “Give me” hand motions continue with each round of snack begging. The Internet Is Loving It The internet is loving watching this baby begging for snacks. The comments on the video are almost as hilarious as the video itself. One user commented, “He will be a great worker for the tax office.” Another added, “Feed me, peasant!!” One commenter is clearly a parent themselves, as they explained exactly what is happening in the video. They explained, “This is called the baby tax. 1% of all baby-safe foods must be given to the baby or else face the consequences of the baby screaming their head off.” The featured image source is here.
