By Zane Irwin Oct. 9, 2026Updated 1:55 p.m. ET A South African lawyer with a long record in human rights work, including leading a U.N. commission that said Israel had committed genocide, won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday, a decision that drew Israel’s condemnation and underscored the country’s deep isolation on the world stage.

Over the years, she has variously served as a top U.N. official and as a judge on the International Criminal Court and a tribunal investigating genocide in Rwanda.

Leo XIV appoints Cardinal Luis Tagle as new dean of the College of Cardinals. Today, Pope Leo XIV has accepted the resignation of Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, 92, as Dean of the College of Cardinals. He approved the election of Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle as the new Dean of the College of Cardinals. Cardinal Tagle is Pro-Prefect of the Dicastery for Evangelization. Nicknamed “Chito,” the sentimal prelate is known for singing and crying in public. He has wept during liturgies, promotions and talks.

Cardinal notes “changing understandings of gender,” says Church must discern how to change. At Leo XIV's meeting marking ten years of Amoris Laetitia on October 8, Cardinal Filipe Neri Ferrão delivered a speech on the challenges facing families in Asia. He is the President of the Conference of Bishops of India. Discussing changes in the “identity, nature and composition of the family,” the cardinal observed that “new forms of partnership and cohabitation are emerging, amid changing understandings of gender and relationships in urban settings.” Reflecting on what the Church has learned from its pastoral work, Ferrão declared: “Pastoral work is itself a place of discernment. We don't arrive with ready-made answers. We discern together with families and, in doing so, we learn how the Church herself is being asked to change.” In his conclusion, the cardinal stated that “there is no single stereotype of an ideal family” and asked, “What is the Holy Spirit asking the Church to change – not …More
: Isabel Vaughan-Spruce has pleaded "not guilty" to fresh charges for standing and silently praying inside a "buffer zone". The new charges were presented at an ongoing hearing, in which Isabel's legal team is arguing that her prosecution amounts to an "abuse of process" and breaches her human rights to freedom of thought and religion. The judge has also commented that “standing is not a crime" and "Courts are not here to pass judgment on people’s views.”
Apparently "died by suicide" is now the politically correct term for "killed himself"
Suicide of a priest: Bernard Card, 73, parish priest of Sainte-Chantal Church in Dijon, France, has committed suicide (pictured left). The Diocese of Dijon announced his “tragic death,” which occurred during the night of October 4–5 at the Sainte-Chantal presbytery. Archbishop Antoine Hérouard (pictured right) described the suicide as “completely unexpected and difficult to understand.” According to reports citing his message to diocesan clergy, Rev. Card had recently been tired and had previously been deeply affected by the suicide of his brother. Ordained in 1981, Rev. Card served the Diocese of Dijon for more than four decades and had been parish priest of Sainte-Chantal since 2019. Despite the suicide, he will be buried at Sainte-Chantal on October 13. His death comes less than two years after another priest of the Diocese of Dijon, Rev. Claude-Marie Millet, also committed suicide. #newsAywayqmkjl
Why Modern Marriage Crumbles Beneath the Rebellion of Decades of Lawlessness You sit in your houses, weeping over the wreckage of your broken vows, pointing your soft, therapeutic fingers at "poor communication" and "unmet emotional needs." You treat marriage like a marketplace for mutual self-admiration, a perpetual indulgence of the passions, and a playground for unrestrained desire. Repent. You are looking at the smoke while ignoring the fire. What you call a "modern marriage" is no marriage at all. It is nothing more than a glorified shack-up between two so-called equals—the terrible, rotten fruit of the 1960s sexual revolution, which tore down the moral fences of Christendom and baptized lawlessness as liberty. If you stripped away the cowardice of this age and listened to the unyielding voice of the ancient Fathers—confirmed and systematically sealed by the angelic doctor Thomas Aquinas—you would see why your dwellings are falling into the dust. You have committed a double rebellion …More
Yes, but the establishment intel people have missed the key issues about the Maidan revolution in Ukraine, which DID NOT overthrow a "legitimately elected Communist president." I have pieced together what really happened: Viktor Yanukovich or his Communist president of the Rada (parliament), gave the stand down order to the Riot Police (the Berkut) that until then had the protestors in the Maidan square surrounded and hemmed in. The communist president conspired to make it look like a Western coup, and the Western globalists like Victor Nuland kept silent about anything to the contrary. It was, like the phony fall of communism, a master stroke of deception meant to pave the way for oligarch Petro Poroshenko to get elected—a phony Ukrainian "nationalist" who would go on to provoke Putin into his stealth invasion of 2014. It wouldn't have made sense for a communist president to provoke Putin, so the communists engendered this fake coup so a false nationalist could replace him and provoke …More
Not without Russia being rewarded for their aggression into Crimea and the Donbas. In essence, Trump is saying, "Ukraine could have capitulated at any time," but that would never have been just to the Ukrainians, and it would allow Putin to get away with his stealth invasion which began clear back in 2014. By the way, I repeat what Putin told Tucker Carlson in his Moscow interview, that Stalin put the two Russian speaking areas of the Donbas into the boundaries of Ukraine, but claimed not to know why. He's lying. The reason is obvious: it provided a pretext for a future invasion after Russia pulled off the long-planned phony fall of the Soviet Union.
