A state visit is a connecting of people, not governments; of cultures, not commentators – our national bonds should be honoured Should King Charles’s state visit to the United States next month be cancelled? The case for doing so is powerful. America is waging an unprovoked war on Iran in which more than 1,000 innocent people have already been killed. The collateral damage to the global economy, including Britain’s, is becoming astronomical. All Donald Trump can do is insult Britain’s prime minister as a “loser” and “no Winston Churchill” for failing to join him. Should the monarch honour such a man by attending a Washington banquet? The call is close. The occasion is the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States with the declaration of independence. Of course this merits celebration. But now? British public opinion is emphatically opposed to the US war on Iran. Many more Britons think the royal visit should be abandoned (46%) than think it should go ahead (36%), with 18% undecided. Just as the war is staged by Trump for personal political gain, so he can be expected to exploit a royal visit.

Israeli defence minister threatens Lebanon with territorial loss, infrastructure damage Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz on Friday threatened Lebanon with increasing territorial losses and damage to its national infrastructure until Hezbollah is disarmed, Haaretz reported on Friday. "The Lebanese government misled and failed to uphold its commitment to disarm Hezbollah, and will therefore pay a price until it fulfills that obligation," Katz said. The minister's comments came after the Israeli military said it had destroyed a bridge over the Litani River, claiming that it was "a key crossing" for Hezbollah operatives. A statement released by Katz's office said on Thursday that if the Lebanese government could not prevent Hezbollah from attacking Israel, Israel "would do it ourselves".
