Donald Trump asks SAUDI ARABIA and others
to establish 'Arab ARMY' to replace US in Syria DONALD Trump is looking to end US engagement in Syria by forming an Arab military force
to replace the US presence in the region and to help stabilise the north-eastern part of
the country following the defeat of so-called Islamic State, it has been reported. The US administration has asked Arab countries
including the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar to contribute billions of
dollars and a large number of troops to help reestablish stability in the war-torn country,
and in particular in northern regions. Expressing his growing concern surrounding
the cost and duration of the military intervention in Syria, President Trump said: We have
asked our partners to take greater responsibility for securing their home region, including
contributing larger amounts of money. A US administration official confirmed this
statement, saying: Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the U.A.E.
Have all been approached with
respect to financial support and more broadly to contribute. Trumps new National Security Adviser, John
Bolton, also reportedly contacted Egypts intelligence chief Abbas Kamel to determine
whether the North African nation would contribute to the effort. Certain US officials have been quick to highlight
the large obstacles that the US faces in establishing an Arab coalition force in Syria. Michael OHanlon, Senior Fellow at the Brookings
Institution, warned of external intervention, saying: A new force has to be strong enough
to face down Assad or Iran if either seeks to reclaim territory, perhaps with Russias
help.
And Charles Lister, a Senior Fellow at the
Middle East Institute, cast doubt over the project, saying: There is just no precedent
or established basis for this shaping into a successful strategy. He also noted that Arab countries such as
the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia would be reluctant to enter into new military
action, as they are currently involved militarily in Yemen. This would be exacerbated by the uncertain
role that the US would play in the project, with questions remaining surrounding whether
the US would continue to provide training, support and air cover for troops. US military officials however signalled in
January that they were hoping to end their military campaign in Syria in a matter of
months, but maintain a certain number of troops in the region to ensure the ongoing stability
of key Islamic State locations such as Raqqa.
Mr Trump also said in early April that he
desired a speedy withdrawal of the 2,000 US. Troops currently positioned in Syria. This has caused rising fears among other military
officials and international politicians that a rapid US withdrawal would create a power
vacuum for ISIS to regain ground, or for nations such as Iran and Russia to gain further control. French President Emmanuel Macron commented
on President Trumps desires to remove US.
Troops from Syria, stating: "Ten days ago,
President Trump was saying the United States of America had a duty to disengage from Syria. "I assure you, we have convinced him that
it is necessary to stay for the long term." It is estimated that between 5,000 to 12,000
Islamic State fighters still remain in eastern regions of Syria, with fighters still operating
in a location south of the town of Al-Hasakah and in a 25-mile stretch along the Euphrates
river near Abu Kamal..

Deadly Kremlin submarines CHASE UK warship as Putin unleashes Black Hole stealth hunters
Deadly Kremlin submarines CHASE UK warship
as Putin unleashes Black Hole stealth hunters LETHAL Russian submarines hunted a Royal Navy submarine this week as tensions between Moscow
and the West reach boiling point, its claimed. Two Kremlin subs dubbed the Black Hole
because of their stealth abilities stalked the British submarine as it came within range
of the Syrian coast before Saturdays bombing raid. The stealth Kilo-class Russian submarines
are powered by diesel generators, and an electric drive which allows them to operate so quickly. Their powerful arsenal includes torpedoes,
cruise and anti-ship missiles.
Iain Ballantyne, author of The Deadly Trade,
a book on submarine warfare, said the two Kilos would have been a considerable threat. In comparison, the 1.2Billion British submarines
have limited firepower and would have only been carrying around 20 Tomahawk missiles. This cat-and-mouse battle happened before
Theresa May announced air strikes on Syria in response to Assads alleged chemical
weapons attack, the Times reported. Two Russian frigates and an anti-submarine
aircraft were also involved in the effort to find the British vessel.
But Brit underwater forces were helped by
the US Navy which flew patrol aircraft to track Russian boats. More than 100 missiles were fired from ships
and manned aircraft as the allies targeted three of the Assad regimes chemical weapons
making facilities yesterday morning. However the British sub did not take part
in the strikes and instead four RAF jets which took from the Akroriti base in Cyprus launched
the missiles. The target was a former base around 15 miles
west of Homs in Syria where Assad is said to be stockpiling materials to make chemical
weapons.
According to the Times, Russian and British
submarines have been stalking each other repeatedly in the North Atlantic and Mediterranean in
recent years. However this tense clash in the Med marked
the first underwater duel amid bitten tensions over the Salisbury spy poisoning and the attack
in Syria. A Royal Navy document revealed plans to push
back the Astute class sub or even cancel it. If the MoD decides to scrap the new vessels
it mens only six, instead of eight, of the 1.6Bn hunter-killers would be able
to protect the UK from foreign threats, including Russia..

Dairy Daily News
[Music playing--
no dialogue] . (Elise Truman).
Good afternoon and welcome to the
Dairy Daily News. I'm Elise Truman, and as always,
it's a beautiful day for dairy.
Today, we're going to
be talking about dairy and its importance
in your diet. Our top story this morning, does
milk really come from cows and what milks are
best for you? We are utterly delighted
to have an on-scene report from the farm. Here is Dairy Daisy who has
the skinny on moo juice. [Music playing--
no dialogue] .
(Daisy Dairy).
Hi y'all this is Daisy Dairy reportin'
from the dairy farm. So do you know where
your milk comes from? Do you know what milk is? Well, milk comes from cows. Nobody knows who first milked a
dairy cow, but today the average American dairy cow produces
about 20,000 pounds of milk.
That's about 2,305
gallons of milk a day. That's about 128 glasses of milk
a day from one single dairy cow. Whole milk is high in fat. This is why it tastes delicious
and has a creamy texture.
Two percent low-fat milk has
the benefits of less milk fat, but still tastes great. It is fortified with skim
milk and has 10 grams of protein per cup. Two percent is what I like
to call the popular milk. Now, for my personal
favorite, skim milk.
Skim milk doesn't have all
the fat that whole milk has, but still has all
the good nutrients that are important
for your body. Our cows are working long and
hard hours to make enough milk for you to grow strong
and healthy bones. Do your part by getting
dairy every day. Back to you Elise.
(Elise).
Thank you, Daisy Dairy, for that moo-ving story. [Wind chime]. Well, you know what
that sound is? It's time for the Dairy
Daily News questions.
You write to us so we
can answer some of your dairy daily questions. Question number one is from
Sam Samuels of Vermont. Sam asks, what ingredients in
milk make it so healthy? Well, Sam, there are two
ingredients in milk that make it especially healthy. Those ingredients are
calcium and vitamin D.
Calcium is a major nutrient
required for growing strong bones and healthy teeth. Vitamin D also helps you
to grow strong bones. Make sure you're getting your
vitamin D and calcium intake every day by drinking milk
and having milk products. The next question is from
Tommy Thompson of Kansas.
Tom writes, "I'm
eight years old." "Is dairy important
for kids like me?" "And if so, is milk the only
way for me to get dairy?" Tommy, milk is very important
for all age groups, especially for growing
kids like you. Dairy is one of the five
food groups in the official food guide pyramid. Milk, dairy also includes foods
like yogurt and cheese. There are lots of ways to
add dairy to your diet.
An easy way to get your daily
amount of dairy every day is to drink three 8 ounce glasses for
ages 4 to 8 years old, or to drink four 8 ounce glasses if
you are 9 to 18 years old. Hope that answers your question. The last question comes from
Mike Michaels of Illinois. Mike writes, "I'm allergic to
milk and I can't drink it." "I love milk, ice
cream, and yogurt." "What should I do?" This is an excellent question,
Mike, because millions of Americans have the same
milk allergy you do.
This milk allergy is called
lactose intolerance, and it's caused by your body not being
able to digest lactose, which is the sugar in milk. There are some products
that you can buy that do not have lactose in them. For instance, you could buy
lactose-free or lactose-reduced milk, lactose-free or
lactose-reduced ice cream or yogurt, or soymilk might
be a good choice for you. Try different products to see
what you like so you can still enjoy your dairy delights.
And now it's time for my
favorite part of the show, the Dairy Daily forecast. Here's Darla Dairy with
the dairy forecast. [Music playing--
no dialogue] . (Darla Dairy).
I'm Darla, reporting for the
Dairy Daily forecast. Well, we see some clouds
in the west moving over the area quickly,
bringing rain. [Rain sound effect]. Don't fret.
Stay inside and get your calcium
from a grilled cheese sandwich or tomato soup made with milk. Well, rain is definitely not
the case in the south. Sunshine is covering the area,
and it's going to be a scorcher. You can cool down with a nice
bowl of low-fat ice cream.
In the east, [wind blowing]
we see some clouds covering the area. That's okay. You can still get your vitamin D
from a nice tall glass of milk. [Sound of glass of
milk being poured] Well, that's all we have
for you today for the Dairy Daily weather forecast.
Just remember, it's always a
beautiful day for dairy. Back to you Elise. (Elise).
Thanks, Darla. You always have the best
tips for adding dairy to your every day diet.
As always, I like to end
the Dairy Daily News on a lighter note. So, here is the Dairy Daily
News joke of the day. What do you get from
the pampered cow? Drum roll please. Spoiled milk.
[Laughter]. That's all the time we have
with you today, folks. Remember to include dairy
in your every day diet. I'm Elise Truman.

China Pulls Out All the Stops for Trump The Daily Show
If you saw Trump
on the campaign, you wouldn't be crazy to think
that he was going to go to China, kick down the door,
grab their president, and shake the factories out
of his pockets. But for this visit,
China was a step ahead. You see, for them, it was time
for Operation Beijing Butter Up. REPORTER: In China,
a lavish red carpet welcome for President Trump,
complete with honor guards.
On the motorcade route, excited schoolchildren waving
American and Chinese flags. Donald Trump seems to be seduced by the lavish red carpet
state visit. That's something. I'm...
We're having a great time.
Okay, first of all, I don't know
if that was a red carpet or if Trump's neckties
are just getting longer. Second of all,
who were those kids? And why were they jumping?
What was going on there? But, still,
look how happy he is. Like, this is the part of being
president that he loves-- people parading for him, not having to walk, touching shiny things. That's what Donald wanted
from the presidency, not meetings
with Mitch McConnell.
And you could tell that
Trump was slowly being seduced by his new Eastern friends. The president, of course,
has had the, uh, red carpet
rolled out for him here. President Xi Jinping is trying
to flatter President Trump. They all tried to figure out,
how do you get to Trump? How do you wow him?
How do you woo him? How do you seduce him? REPORTER: President Xi Jinping
and his wife playing tour guide,
taking President Trump and the first lady
to Beijing's Forbidden City...
...And to a traditional
Chinese opera. You can see the exact moment
they told him Jackie Chan wasn't in this. But-but, shame, shame, uh, like, you've got to give
Trump props. He tried.
He went to a Chinese opera. And I-I respect that. Because I know what it's like
when a friend forces you to sit through a performance and
you can't wait for it to end. (Guitar playing) She's a girl
and she's a friend to me She's my lover She's so kind to me No one knows Just why you would ever be
there for me She's a girl
who's more of a Christmas tree She's got so many gifts
for me She's a giving, loving tree Saba-ha! That's kind of how
that one goes.
-It's really nice.
-Yeah. So, I have four more.
(Clears throat) Next one's kind of a rocker,
you know? You know what I mean? -You really get...
-I-I need to... I need to pee. (Laughter) That was the first time
I missed apartheid.
(Laughter, gasping) (cheering and applause) So... So, you might be watching
this whole trip and thinking, "Come on, man.
The Chinese are so dumb. "You can't play Trump.
He is The Art of the Deal. "He's not going to watch
your little show "and all of a sudden be like,
'You know what, I don't blame China.'" I don't blame China.
Wait, what? What happened to
the "China raping America" part? And-and it's one thing
to not blame them. It's another thing to praise
them for ripping America off. After all, who can blame a country for being able to take advantage
of another country for the benefit of its citizens? I give China great credit. (Applause) Wow.
I never thought I would
hear an American president tell his geopolitical adversary, "Well played, guys.
We had it coming. Yeah, we had it coming." And Trump's tone on this trip
went beyond just politeness. He praised Xi in person and even tweeted a video
for his new best friend. President Xi,
I want to thank you for an incredible,
welcoming ceremony.
You're a very special man. My feeling toward you is
an incredibly warm one. Our meeting last night was absolutely terrific. Our relationship
with you and China is a very important one to me.
In the coming months and years,
I look forward to building an even stronger relationship between our two countries,
and even closer friendships and relationships between the people
of our countries. (As Trump): That's why President
Xi and I would be honored if you joined us
on our special day. (Laughter) We're registered at the
Ancient Ming Pottery Barn. (Laughter) Look,
if you're a Trump supporter, him letting China off the hook probably doesn't
make you feel great.
But if he really is your guy, you should also be happy
that he found love. (Laughter) Yeah, you can't deny
that this trip was magical. It felt like one long episode
of The Bachelor in China. President Xi,
I want to thank you.
Again,
you're a very special man. Our meeting last night was absolutely terrific. Our dinner was beyond that. My feeling toward you is
an incredibly warm one.
There's great chemistry, and I think we're going
to do tremendous things for both China
and for the United States. Oh! (Cheers and applause) That's all good and well
and really romantic until Trump gets home,
turns on the lights, finds Putin waiting for him
like, "Enjoy your little trip,
Donald?" -(Laughter)
-"I saw the video. -Who is Xi?"
-(Laughter).

BREAKING News Out Of Atlanta, HELL YES! THEY ARE DOING IT!!!
BREAKING News Out Of Atlanta, HELL YES! THEY ARE DOING IT!!! Amid the efforts of liberals to strip our
gun rights away, many gun rights advocates are staging peaceful rallies across the country
to make our voices heard. We are fighting the recent efforts to impose
stricter gun-control laws, that they fear undermine our 2nd Amendment rights. Peaceful protesters numbering in the hundreds
gathered outside statehouses from Maine to Wyoming to hear speakers warn, that any restrictions
on gun ownership or use could eventually lead to bans for law-abiding gun owners. Fox News reports.
Gun owners have been portrayed in a negative
way and it is our hope that this peaceable rally will show that we are safe, law-abiding
individuals that happen to take our constitutional rights very seriously, Dave Gulya, an organizer
for the Maine event that attracted about 800 people, told the Bangor Daily News. Its our turn as gun owners to come out
and show our numbers, Gulya said. Any restriction completely goes against
our rights. Between 600 and 800 people gathered from 2
p.M.
To 4 p.M. In the plaza between the State House, and the Cross State Office Building,
according to an estimated crowd count by Capitol Police. Billed as the Americans for America
rally, many rally-goers held American flags and implored the country to come together,
according to WABI. Under a gray cloudy sky, they carried signs
that read, Let teachers protect my life now! And Gun free zones kill!, Tweeted
Maine Public Radio.
Protesters in Vermont took to the steps of
the Statehouse in Montpelier, where days earlier they felt Gov. Phil Scott betrayed them
when he signed three major gun control measures. Three days ago, on these steps, we were
betrayed, Joe Nagle told the Burlington Free Press. We were promised no new gun laws.
The paper reported that the National Rifle
Association criticized Scott, a Republican, and called on gun owners to abandon the governor,
who changed his stance in February after an alleged school shooting plot shook the state. Saturdays protests came less than three
weeks after hundreds of thousands marched in Washington, New York and elsewhere to demand
tougher gun laws after the Feb. 14 School shooting in Parkland, Fla., That killed 17. Organizers of those protests demanded a ban
on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and called for universal background checks
on potential gun owners.
Fox News reported. Pro-gun protesters also showed up in Boston;
Indianapolis; Albany, N.Y.; Austin, Texas; Des Moines, Iowa; and other cities. John Nagle had a message Saturday afternoon
for his fellow pro-gun activists: Step up and run for office. Weve got to stop being quiet, the
Colchester resident said to the crowd of camouflage, and orange-clad people who braved icy rain
and sleet to rally on the steps of the Statehouse, where three days earlier Gov.
Phil Scott signed
three bills tightening Vermonts gun laws. Several other speakers said they would be
challenging sitting legislators, even in Democratic strongholds like Chittenden County, or encouraged
others to do so as the states gun activists turn their attention to long-term strategy. We all have to fight for our rights. When we give them an inch, they take a mile.

gathered outside statehouses from Maine to Wyoming to hear speakers warn, that any restrictions
on gun ownership or use could eventually lead to bans for law-abiding gun owners. Fox News reports.
Gun owners have been portrayed in a negative
way and it is our hope that this peaceable rally will show that we are safe, law-abiding
individuals that happen to take our constitutional rights very seriously, Dave Gulya, an organizer
for the Maine event that attracted about 800 people, told the Bangor Daily News. Its our turn as gun owners to come out
and show our numbers, Gulya said. Any restriction completely goes against
our rights. Between 600 and 800 people gathered from 2
p.M.
To 4 p.M. In the plaza between the State House, and the Cross State Office Building,
according to an estimated crowd count by Capitol Police. Billed as the Americans for America
rally, many rally-goers held American flags and implored the country to come together,
according to WABI. Under a gray cloudy sky, they carried signs
that read, Let teachers protect my life now! And Gun free zones kill!, Tweeted
Maine Public Radio.
Protesters in Vermont took to the steps of
the Statehouse in Montpelier, where days earlier they felt Gov. Phil Scott betrayed them
when he signed three major gun control measures. Three days ago, on these steps, we were
betrayed, Joe Nagle told the Burlington Free Press. We were promised no new gun laws.
The paper reported that the National Rifle
Association criticized Scott, a Republican, and called on gun owners to abandon the governor,
who changed his stance in February after an alleged school shooting plot shook the state. Saturdays protests came less than three
weeks after hundreds of thousands marched in Washington, New York and elsewhere to demand
tougher gun laws after the Feb. 14 School shooting in Parkland, Fla., That killed 17. Organizers of those protests demanded a ban
on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and called for universal background checks
on potential gun owners.
Fox News reported. Pro-gun protesters also showed up in Boston;
Indianapolis; Albany, N.Y.; Austin, Texas; Des Moines, Iowa; and other cities. John Nagle had a message Saturday afternoon
for his fellow pro-gun activists: Step up and run for office. Weve got to stop being quiet, the
Colchester resident said to the crowd of camouflage, and orange-clad people who braved icy rain
and sleet to rally on the steps of the Statehouse, where three days earlier Gov.
Phil Scott signed
three bills tightening Vermonts gun laws. Several other speakers said they would be
challenging sitting legislators, even in Democratic strongholds like Chittenden County, or encouraged
others to do so as the states gun activists turn their attention to long-term strategy. We all have to fight for our rights. When we give them an inch, they take a mile.

BREAKING News From The Pentagon ITS BIG!!!
BREAKING News From The Pentagon ITS BIG!!! New reports reveal that President Trump made
the decision to choose one of the more restrained proposals designed by the Pentagon in regards
to the most recent Syrian airstrikes. The recent Syrian airstrikes were double the
size of last years but we could have taken it a lot further. The Wall Street Journal, citing unnamed sources,
reported that Trump was presented with a wide array of options. There were intense discussions on the best
approach after Defense Secretary Jim Mattis presented the three military options, the
report said.
Trump chose a restrained response. The paper reported that the most expansive
proposal included airstrikes on Russian air defense capabilities in Syria. The attack would have been three times the
size of the operation carried outwhich included 100 advanced missiles launched at
three targets. Fox News reports that Trump reportedly wanted
his team to consider the strikes on Iranian and Russian targets, but Mattis resisted.
Mattis reportedly warned of a possible Russian
and Iranian response. Russia has military forces, including air
defenses, in several areas of Syria to support President Bashar Assad in his long war against
anti-government rebels. The nighttime Syria assault was carefully
limited to minimize civilian casualties and avoid direct conflict with Syrias key ally,
Russia, but confusion arose over the extent to which Washington warned Moscow in advance. The Pentagon said it gave no explicit warning.
The U.S. Ambassador in Moscow, John Huntsman,
said in a video, Before we took action, the United States communicated with Russia
to reduce the danger of any Russian or civilian casualties. As of Monday morning, neither Syria nor its
Russian or Iranian allies retaliated, Pentagon officials said. The U.S.-Led operation won broad Western support.
The NATO alliance gave its full backing; NATO
Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said in Brussels that the attack was about ensuring
that chemical weapons cannot be used with impunity. These are dangerous times folks. What do you think about this? Please Share this news and Scroll down to
