02.06.2025 โ‡ข The Day Terror Struck Boulder While Britain Prepared for War
โŒจCoverage began with reports of a terror attack in Colorado, where Mohamed Sabry Soliman, an Egyptian migrant who had overstayed his visa, used makeshift flamethrowers and Molotov cocktails against pro-Israel demonstrators in Boulder. The injury count rose from six to eight throughout the day, with FBI officials revealing the suspect had plotted for a year while working in close contact with American neighbors, including Jewish residents.

Starmer launched Britain's Strategic Defence Review, declaring the nation must achieve "war-fighting readiness" through AI, robots, and laser technology. The announcement promised submarines and nuclear warheads but avoided committing to 3% GDP spending, triggering immediate funding disputes that threatened implementation.

Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Istanbul collapsed after four hours, despite initial optimism about prisoner exchanges. Polish elections saw conservative Karol Nawrocki defeat the globalist Warsaw mayor with Trump's backing.

Portuguese police began new searches for Madeleine McCann near Christian Brueckner's former address, while Mount Etna erupted, forcing tourists to flee.

โŒจThe newspapers report on a terror attack in Colorado where eight people were injured after a suspect used a makeshift flamethrower and petrol bombs at a pro-Israel rally while shouting "free Palestine" (BBC News, Daily Mail, Metro, Sky News, The Sun). The FBI describes it as a suspected terror attack, with outlets identifying the perpetrator as an illegal Egyptian migrant and noting a Holocaust survivor among the victims. Domestically, Starmer announces plans to build up to 12 submarines as defense against growing Russian threats (HuffPost UK). International coverage includes Poland's presidential election upset, where conservative newcomer Karol Nawrocki defeated the globalist Warsaw mayor in a major political shift (Breitbart London).

10:17โ‡ขStarmer's War Readiness Plan

โŒจThe newspapers report on Starmer's defense announcement preparing Britain for "war-fighting readiness" amid growing Russian threats, with plans to build submarines and mobilize the nation (The Independent, Sky News, HuffPost UK). However, the initiative faces immediate scrutiny over funding gaps. Polish elections feature prominently as conservative historian Karol Nawrocki wins the presidency with Trump's backing, defeating the globalist Warsaw mayor in what multiple outlets describe as a major political upset (Channel 4 News, Breitbart London). Andy Burnham emerges as a potential Labour leadership challenger, with The New Statesman reporting his "popular left programme" directly challenging Starmer's direction. International incidents include a tourist damaging China's Terracotta Army statues and Mount Etna's dramatic eruption forcing tourists to flee.

Meanwhile, Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Istanbul collapsed after four hours, with Ukrainian negotiators walking out despite earlier optimism about prisoner exchanges (BBC News, Breitbart London).

Domestically, Starmer's defence plans to make Britain "battle-ready" face funding disputes that threaten implementation (The Independent).
