RIYADH: The defense ministers of the 41-nation Islamic Military Alliance to Fight Terrorism (IMAFT) will meet in the Saudi capital of Riyadh on Nov. 26. With around one-third of the Arab world currently embroiled in conflict caused mainly by terror groups, the meeting is a significant step in the countries’ cooperation to fight the menace of terrorism in the Islamic world.
“The meeting of the defense ministers aims to strengthen cooperation and integration between the Islamic Military Alliance members,” said a report published by Saudi Press Agency (SPA) on Saturday. The meeting will also be attended by ambassadors and senior diplomats representing their countries in Saudi Arabia, alongside top Saudi and IMAFT officials, said the SPA report.

Nice pictures of electric cars being powered by diesel generators.
Unfortunately there are no close up pictures of the Village Idiots driving in the diesel guzzling electric cars.

"Chinese military launches website to rat on leaks, violations & fake news"
This will not be restricted to just Chinese. In a few years everyone on this planet will be silenced by either direct or indirect harassment and oppression through this new force. Expect denial to enter the country, abductions, hacks, sudden tax audits if you do business with China and so on... in a connected World you're only as free as the most powerful players let you be. Doesn't matter if you're American and got freedom of speech. Suddenly your porn browsing history will get leaked, or the mails you've exchanged about that business deal will pop up somewhere and you get fired for negligence. As we do everything online these days, everything becomes transparent and hackable. When I bought a USB stick in China, of course it came with malware..not surprised. But when I bought a usb connector cable - and chances are you bought the same on amazon - it came from China and in the Usb was a key logger that every week sent an encrypted message to a Chinese ip address when I was online.
This is a big, big issue. Industrial espionage, surveillance, suppression. ..and no one talks about it
