US sees embarrassing UN defeat over Iran arms embargo proposal

the scale of the defeat on Friday underlined US isolation on the world stage ahead of a major diplomatic confrontation that threatens to consume the security council and further sap its authority.

The US stripped anti-Iran rhetoric from earlier drafts of the resolution in the hope of recruiting more supporters, but its insistence that an extension to the UN embargo would be indefinite made that impossible. Estonia and Tunisia withstood eleventh-hour US pressure to support the revised draft, a measure of diminished American clout at the UN. Russia and China voted against the resolution, the US and the Dominican Republic voted in favour, and all the other council members abstained.

Just one country joins US in vote, highlighting Washington’s isolation as it seeks more drastic action against Iran

The US has suffered a humiliating defeat at the United Nations as its proposal to extend an arms embargo on Iran won support from only the Dominican Republic at the security council vote.

The US resolution was never likely to be passed in the face of Russian and Chinese opposition. It was proposed as a ploy by the Trump administration to open the way to more drastic action against Iran.

Coronavirus: Global flare-ups show need for forced isolation of cases, Australia/NZ News & Top Stories – The Straits Times

In Australia, where Victoria state has been reporting record deaths, some 3,000 checks last month on people who should have been isolating at home found 800 were out and about. In Japan, where the virus has roared back, people are staying home but are not in isolation: 40 per cent of elderly patients are getting sick from family members in the same apartments.

The failure to effectively manage contagious people with mild or no symptoms is a driving factor behind some of the world’s worst resurgences.

Ahmed Amarneh’s home, its wooden door leading into cushion-lined rooms, is not the first Palestinian residence in the occupied West Bank to receive a demolition notice from Israel.

But it may be the first built inside a cave that Israel has threatened to destroy.

President Trump orders ByteDance to divest from its U.S. TikTok business within 90 days

Beyond the pale – he does not have the power to do this – he may be able to ban it from doing business in US but he can’t order it to sell. Just playing bully-boy to get out of his bunker-boy image.

President Donald Trump issued an executive order Friday that will force China’s ByteDance to sell or spin off its U.S. TikTok business within 90 days.

Epic Games CEO says Apple suit is about ‘basic freedoms,’ calls Apple a middleman

Kind of obvious – you pay to play. If you do not want easy access to Apple customers, you don’t pay to be in their store. If you want that access, you pay. If you are a restaurant that does not want to pay a percentage to a credit card company, you get fewer customers – period! A day after filing private antitrust lawsuits against Apple and Google, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney said the decision to fight two of tech’s biggest powers is more about freedom than money.

Sweeney made the case for Epic’s legal maneuvering, specifically as it applies to Apple, in a series of tweets on Friday. The executive characterized the fight as one for consumer and developer choice, not simply a play at more lucrative financial deals.
