There is a fourth undeclared candidate in Taiwan: Communist China
Demonstrations of force, investigations against Taiwanese interests in China, propaganda: this is how Beijing wants to influence Taiwan's presidential vote.
Wars in 2024 will be decided by three key elections
Not only are the wars of 2023, Ukraine and the Middle East in the lead, unlikely to be resolved in the course of the year, but the conflicts appear to be escalating. The outcome depends on the elections in Taiwan, the EU and the US.
Gaza, war without limits. The siege of the small Christian community
There are no more limits or any rules to the engagement in Gaza. The siege on the Catholic parish of the Holy Family where Israeli snipers without reason, also killed two volunteers, is proof. The battle also rages in the West Bank. Appeal for peace by Patriarch Pizzaballa.
Israel is in a dead end
If annihilating Hamas is a legitimate goal, to achieve it by any means, is not. In fact, Netanyahu government's military action raises major political-strategic and moral problems.

'New' Poland is born anti-Catholic

Riots in Dublin, social unrest explodes on the green isle
The criminal act of an immigrant, who stabbed three children, triggered violent protests even the police struggled to contain. But, it is just the tip of the iceberg of the growing social tension caused by the disintegration of Irish society.
Anti-abortion and libertarian, Milei is a paradox
Milei is a paradoxical outsider in the Argentine political scene: his idea of anarcho-libertarian capitalism was condemned by Rerum Novarum. He rejects social justice by disqualifying his compatriot Pope Francis. But unlike a Church today embalmed in the progressive political scheme, he has spoken out clearly against abortion.
Middle East, no one believes in the fairy tale of two peoples in two states anymore
'Two peoples in two states' is the diplomatic mantra for resolving the Middle East conflict. Giving one state to the Jews and one to the Arabs was first proposed in 1947. The Arabs refused. And from that refusal, which persists to this day, everything else ensued.
Assault on Israel is Biden's foreign policy failure
Biden's foreign policy has undermined the establishment of the 'Abraham Accords' that isolated Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas.

«We Israelis are now more united than ever in defence of our nation»
"Missiles continue to rain down on Tel Aviv forcing us to live in lockdown, but near the Gaza border it’s worse, the alarms go off continuously". "We are at war, and not only has every reservist responded to the call up, but many others have volunteered to enlist." A young entrepreneur, Zoltan Zholdi, describes how Israel is experiencing this present crisis to the Daily Compass.
Hamas has never spared women and children
Hamas killed dozens of infants in the massacre it committed in Israel. But, Hamas doesn’t treasure children and has never respected children, neither their own nor those of the enemy. They indoctrinate their children and then use them as suicide terrorists. In the same way they have used women in their past attacks.
