Foreign news has gone ballistic

In just 48 hours the following major foreign stories have broken, providing daily newspapers with a tornado of potential front page "splashes" and almost never enough space to place everything: Israel airstrike on a building in Beirut kills a top Hezbollah commander; Hamas political leader Ismail Hanniyeh, assassinated presumably by Israel's Mossad in Tehran while attending the inauguration of the new Iranian president, possibly by an explosive device hidden in the room where he was staying; Mohammed Deif, the military commander of the Hamas combat brigades in Gaza, confirmed dead after being hit by an Israeli airstrike some weeks ago; Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and two other Americans held in prison in Russia are released in a mass prisoner swap; and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, accused architect of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and two other detainees in Guantanamo, also charged with the 9/11 terrorist murders of nearly 3,000 people, agree a plea deal to serve life sentences and avoid the death penalty. It's non-stop. And because of all the assassinations carried out by Israel, more and more commentators are talking about a Third World War. I tell you what, now more than ever in modern times we need a very strong leader to stop this all from turning into a total disaster for the whole planet. We don't want Donald Trump but will Kamala Harris be that leader? It's all too late for Joe Biden. So who is it going to be?
