Fox News Digital took a look back at the most viral and violent moments of the riots, as captured in photos, following renewed protests on Saturday evening as thousands poured onto LA streets as part of the «No Kings Day» protests that unfolded in cities nationwide. The protests on Saturday were planned for the same day as Trump’s birthday and when the president held a massive military parade in Washington, D.C., honoring the Army’s 250th anniversary. 

LIBERAL MEDIA DOWNPLAYS LA RIOTS, DISMISS VIOLENCE AS ISOLATED WHILE TOUTING ‘PEACEFUL’ ANTI-ICE PROTESTS

Riots broke out in L.A. the evening of Friday, June 6, after federal law enforcement officials converged on the city to carry out immigration raids. State and local leaders, such as Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and Gov. Gavin Newsom, quickly denounced the raids in public statements while offering words of support for illegal immigrants in the state.

Protests over the raids soon devolved into violence as rioters targeted federal law enforcement officials, including launching rocks at officials, with videos showing people looting local stores, setting cars on fire and taking over a freeway.

Trump announced last weekend that 2,000 National Guard members would be deployed to help quell the violence, while the administration additionally deployed hundreds of Marines to respond to anti-immigration chaos on Monday evening as the violence continued.

«If I didn’t ‘SEND IN THE TROOPS’ to Los Angeles the last three nights, that once beautiful and great City would be burning to the ground right now,» Trump posted to Truth Social on Tuesday morning.

California launched a lawsuit against the administration for activating the National Guard, which bypassed the governor, who typically deploys the National Guard during a state of emergency.

A U.S. district judge sided with Newsom and his administration’s lawsuit in a decision Thursday ordering Trump to return control of the Guard to the state «forthwith.» A federal appeals court on Thursday, however, issued an administrative stay of the lower court’s order, handing the Trump administration a temporary win.

Federal officials pinned blame for the violence on Democratic elected officials who have «villainized and demonized» ICE law enforcement, Fox News Digital previously reported.

«The violent targeting of law enforcement in Los Angeles by lawless rioters is despicable and Mayor Bass and Governor Newsom must call for it to end,» Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin wrote in a statement last weekend. «The men and women of ICE put their lives on the line to protect and defend the lives of American citizens. . . . From comparisons to the modern-day Nazi gestapo to glorifying rioters, the violent rhetoric of these sanctuary politicians is beyond the pale. This violence against ICE must end.»

As footage of rioters launching rocks and other heavy objects at police, looting stores, setting cars on fire and shutting down highways spread across social media, critics of the violence balked at how many of the rioters waved Mexican flags in an act of defiance against the Trump administration’s efforts to deport the millions of illegal immigrants, while burning the American flag.

Menacing graffiti deriding Immigration and Customs Enforcement, calling for people to «kill a cop» as well as graffiti threatening Trump’s life have been spotted around the city.

The U.S. Secret Service confirmed on Thursday that it is «aware» of the graffiti messages threatening, «Kill Trump.»

The protests and riots found renewed support on Saturday in a «No Kings Day» protest, when thousands took to the streets to protest what they said was Trump conducting himself as a «king» and not a president. «No Kings» protests were held in cities across the nation on the same of the massive military parade honoring the U.S. Army, which fell on Flag Day and Trump’s 79th birthday.

The L.A. protests on Saturday led to arrests and police employing tear gas, flash-bangs and a dispersal order. On Saturday, the police department said on its X account that «people in the crowd are throwing rocks, bricks, bottles and other objects» at officers, as well as aiming «commercial grade fireworks» at them.

The attacks raised Israel’s casualties total to at least 24 dead and more than 500 wounded in the conflict that began Friday with an Israeli offensive against Iran.

The Israeli military said its fighter jets responded to the attacks on Monday by striking 10 command centers in Tehran that belonged to Quds Force, an elite arm of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard that conducts military and intelligence operations.

Powerful explosions, likely from Israel’s defense systems intercepting Iranian missiles, shook Tel Aviv shortly before dawn.

A missile fell near the U.S. Embassy branch in Tel Aviv, causing some minor damage to property from concussions of the blast, U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said on X. There were no injuries to U.S. personnel.

Iran announced it had launched about 100 missiles and promised further retaliation in response to Israel’s attacks on its military and nuclear infrastructure.

At least 224 people have been killed and roughly 1,300 have been wounded in Iran since Israel began its offensive on Friday, and the vast majority of casualties were civilians, according to Iran’s Ministry of Health.

Rights groups, such as the Washington-based Iranian advocacy group Human Rights Activists, have suggested that the Iranian government is undercounting the death toll. The group says it has documented more than 400 people killed, including 197 civilians.

Authorities in the central Israeli city of Petah Tikva said Iranian missiles had struck a residential building, charring concrete walls, shattering windows and pulling the walls off multiple apartments.

On Sunday, during an earlier wave of Iranian missiles on central Israel, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Iran will stop its strikes if Israel halts its attacks.

But after a day of intensive Israeli aerial attacks that extended targets beyond military installations to hit oil refineries and government buildings, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard pledged on Monday that additional rounds of strikes would be «more forceful, severe, precise and destructive than previous ones.»

Israel argues that its assault on Iran’s top military leaders, uranium enrichment sites and nuclear scientists was necessary to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Iran has maintained that its nuclear program is peaceful, and U.S. intelligence agencies and the International Atomic Energy Agency have said Iran was not pursuing a nuclear weapon.

El día que Israel quiso que Albert Einstein fuera presidente

Published

on


El físico alemán rechazó el cargo por falta de experiencia política y preferencia por la vida científica (EFE)

El nombre de Albert Einstein pasó a la historia por ser uno de los mejores físicos de la historia mundial. Pero el matemático estuvo cerca de estar ligado a la presidencia de un país cuando recibió el ofrecimiento para conducir Israel, un Estado recién creado para aquel entonces.

Durante 1952, el mundo todavía enfrentaba las consecuencias de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. En aquel entonces, habían pasado solo cuatro años desde el nacimiento de Israel y este no tenía presidente. Entonces, autoridades del país evaluaron la idea: “¿Y si se le ofrece el cargo a Albert Einstein?”.

Advertisement

Israel fue proclamado como Estado independiente en mayo de 1948, luego de una larga historia de migraciones y conflictos. Chaim Weizmann fue el primer presidente del país; era un químico de renombre y un líder político del movimiento sionista. Pero en noviembre de 1952, su muerte dejó un vacío inmediato.

En ese momento, se comenzó a buscar una alternativa con características concretas. Buscaban una persona con autoridad moral, prestigio internacional y que presentara una conexión con los ideales fundacionales del Estado judío. En ese contexto, el nombre de Albert Einstein empezó a resonar entre los funcionarios.

Einstein era una figura admirada en todo el mundo. Para aquel entonces, ya había formulado la Teoría de la Relatividad, además de haber explicado el efecto fotoeléctrico. Entre otras cosas, el físico se destacaba por su actitud ética, su defensa de los derechos humanos y su oposición al nazismo.

Si bien el matemático vivía hace años en Princeton, Nueva Jersey y nunca había puesto un pie en Israel, su nombre tenía un gran peso para la política del país, según detalló National Geographic.

El 17 de noviembre de 1952, Abba Eban, embajador de Israel en Estados Unidos, visitó a Albert Einstein. Allí le presentó un documento, respaldado por la firma de David Ben-Gurión, entonces primer ministro de Israel, donde invitaba al renombrado científico a asumir el cargo de presidente del país.

El ofrecimiento a Albert Einstein no era meramente simbólico ni improvisado, sino una propuesta genuina y cuidadosamente deliberada por los altos mandos del gobierno israelí. La carta, enviada por David Ben-Gurión, destacaba a Einstein como una “gran figura moral y científica”, tanto para el pueblo judío como para el mundo. A pesar de su falta de experiencia política, el gobierno consideraba que el prestigioso físico alemán era la opción perfecta para ser el rostro de su nación en un momento tan importante.

La propuesta dejó a Albert Einstein profundamente sorprendido. Con 74 años, se dedicaba a una vida apacible enfocada en la investigación y la divulgación científica. Aunque siempre había mantenido un interés activo en los asuntos políticos, nunca había participado directamente en ellos, lo que hizo que esta oferta, proveniente de un país con el que se sentía profundamente conectado, le resultara tan inesperada. Su rutina, centrada en la ciencia y la reflexión, no anticipaba un cambio tan monumental en su vida.

Así, el físico alemán decidió rechazar la oferta. Lo hizo con una carta breve, pero profunda, que envió el 18 de noviembre de 1952. En ella decía: “Estoy profundamente conmovido por la oferta del Estado de Israel, pero también entristecido y al mismo tiempo incapaz de aceptarla. Toda mi vida me he ocupado de cuestiones objetivas. Me falta tanto la aptitud natural como la experiencia necesaria para tratar con seres humanos y asumir funciones oficiales. Por estas razones no me siento capacitado para aceptar este cargo”.

Con sus palabras, Einstein dejó en claro que no sentía deseo de llevar adelante el Estado de Israel. Si bien era una persona capacitada en diversos ámbitos, no se sentía capaz de ocupar un cargo como el de presidente.

La tragedia de Air India: los familiares asisten a los funerales de las casi 280 víctimas

Published

on


Las familias asistieron este domingo a los funerales de las víctimas del accidente del Boeing 787 de Air India, que se estrelló el jueves en Ahmedabad, en el noroeste de India, dejando al menos 279 muertos, la peor catástrofe aérea desde 2014.

Por ahora, 47 fallecidos fueron formalmente identificados a partir del ADN de sus familiares.

Una treintena de parientes y amigos de Megha Mehta, una fisioterapeuta que iba a bordo del vuelo, se congregó el domingo en un crematorio de Ahmedabad para recitar oraciones durante un servicio funerario hindú.

El familiar declaró a AFP, bajo condición de anonimato, que les habían pedido que no abrieran el féretro.

Varios testigos dijeron haber visto cuerpos carbonizados y restos humanos esparcidos.

«Se me encoge el corazón» ante la idea de entregarlos a las familias, declaró a AFP Tushar Leuva, que trabaja para una ONG que ayuda a devolver los cadáveres.

«¿Cómo reaccionarán cuando abran la puerta?», se preguntaba el sábado por la noche delante de la morgue.

Solo uno de los pasajeros de las 242 personas que viajaban en el aparato –incluida la tripulación– sobrevivió al accidente, según los últimos datos publicados el sábado.

También murieron 38 personas que se encontraban en tierra cuando el avión explotó al estrellarse.

Muchas familias seguían esperando el domingo que les devolvieran los cuerpos de sus seres queridos.

Imtiaz Ali, que dio una muestra de ADN el día del accidente para que se pudiera identificar el cuerpo de su hermano Javed, seguía sin tener noticias de las autoridades sanitarias.

Aunque comprende que se necesite tiempo para identificar los cadáveres, lamenta la falta de apoyo de la compañía aérea.

El domingo por la noche, Air India afirmó en X que había «establecido contacto con parientes y familiares de todos los pasajeros y miembros de la tripulación».

Según la aviación civil india, en el Boeing 787 viajaban 230 pasajeros –169 indios, 53 británicos, siete portugueses y un canadiense– y 12 tripulantes.

Entre los pasajeros se encontraba Arjun Patoliya, padre de dos niñas, que había viajado a India para esparcir las cenizas de su esposa, fallecida unas semanas antes.

«Espero de verdad que todos cuidemos de estas niñas», declaró Anjana Patel, alcaldesa del distrito londinense de Harrow, donde vivían algunas de las víctimas.

Llegar tarde

Una mujer, que llegó tarde al aeropuerto, escapó a la tragedia.

«El mostrador de facturación ya estaba cerrado», contó Bhoomi Chauhan, de 28 años, a la agencia de noticias Press Trust of India (PTI). Recuerda que pensó: «Si hubiéramos salido un poco antes, no habríamos perdido el vuelo».

El vuelo 171 de Air India se estrelló el jueves menos de un minuto después de su despegue con destino al aeropuerto londinense de Gatwick. El aparato emitió una llamada de socorro casi en ese momento, tras haber despegado, antes de estrellarse en un barrio residencial de Ahmedabad situado cerca del aeropuerto.

El accidente es ya el más mortífero a nivel mundial desde el del Boeing 777 de Malaysia Airlines, derribado en julio de 2014 por un misil sobre Ucrania cuando se dirigía de Ámsterdam a Kuala Lumpur.

Aquel siniestro se cobró la vida de 298 personas.

Los investigadores recuperaron el viernes una de las cajas negras del avión, la que registra los datos del vuelo, y seguía la búsqueda para encontrar la segunda, la que graba las conversaciones en la cabina.

Según una fuente cercana al caso, se trata del primer accidente de un Boeing B-787 Dreamliner, un avión de larga distancia que entró en servicio en 2011.

Los expertos creen que es demasiado pronto para especular sobre las causas del siniestro.

Los videos del accidente difundidos en redes sociales muestran el despegue del avión, que luego es incapaz de ganar altura y termina cayendo estrellándose en el suelo.
