Germany has ‘psychology of guilt’ when it comes to Holocaust, Israel, Erdoğan says

Published Mon, 10 Mar 2025 12:36:36 GMT

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan traded barbs with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz over the Israel-Hamas war during a tense press conference on Friday evening, at one point suggesting Germany won’t criticize Israel because of the Holocaust. “Since we’re in a kind of psychology of guilt here, you can’t judge it that way, but we have no debt to Israel. If that were the case, then perhaps we wouldn’t be able to talk so easily. Nor have we gone through the history of the Holocaust,” the Turkish president said via an official German translator. Erdoğan, who paid an expectedly difficult visit to Berlin, used the joint press conference with Scholz to harshly criticize Israel for its daily airstrikes and ground operation in densely-populated Gaza, which has killed more than 11,500 Palestinians, including more than 4,500 children, according to separate counts from both the Palestinian Authority and the Hamas-run government’s media office in Gaza....

Published Mon, 10 Mar 2025 12:36:36 GMT

Yoshinobu Yamamoto is expected to be posted by the Orix Buffaloes on Monday, November 20, officially opening the 45-day window (until Jan. 4, 2024) for MLB teams to negotiate with the Japanese pitching sensation.Though he’s only 25 years old and would technically be a rookie if he came to the Majors next year, Yamamoto already has seven impressive Nippon Professional Baseball seasons under his belt. Over 897 innings in a Buffaloes uniform, he posted a 1.82 ERA, strong 26.43% strikeout rate, and commanding 5.9% walk rate. He took home two Pacific League MVP awards and three Japanese Triple Crowns, and this season, became the first pitcher in NPB history to pitch a no-hitter in back-to-back seasons.As such, the right-hander is expected to command a record-breaking salary for an NPB player coming to MLB.

US wildlife managers have no immediate plans to capture wandering Mexican gray wolf

Published Mon, 10 Mar 2025 12:36:36 GMT

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — It’s been a long journey for one lone Mexican gray wolf — from the forests of southeastern Arizona, across the dusty high desert of central New Mexico to the edge of what is known as the Yellowstone of the Southwest. Her paws have seen hundreds of miles now over the last five months. Having reached Valles Caldera National Preserve in northern New Mexico, she has wandered far beyond the boundaries established along the Arizona-New Mexico border for managing the rarest subspecies of gray wolf in North America. The recovery area — spanning tens of thousands of square miles — is home to more than 240 of the endangered predators.Federal wildlife managers have confirmed to The Associated Press they have no immediate plans for capturing the lone female wolf nicknamed Asha. But they will continue tracking her movements. Known to biologists by her formal name of F2754, the wolf is outfitted with a GPS collar. Data collected since her release in June in the Apache Nat...

The No Labels party asked its supporters if they would pay $100 to help choose its 2024 nominee

Published Mon, 10 Mar 2025 12:36:36 GMT

PHOENIX (AP) — No Labels, a political organization that has alarmed some Democrats with talk of launching a third-party presidential candidate, has contemplated requiring a donation of at least $100 in order to cast a ballot at the group’s upcoming nominating convention, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press. The idea, which breaks from longstanding norms, would raise a significant hurdle to participating in the democratic process — in this case No Labels’ selection of its potential candidates for president and vice president. Neither the Democratic or Republican parties charge to vote at their conventions, where delegates vote for candidates chosen by voters through primaries or caucuses.The possibility of requiring a donation was included in an internal survey No Labels conducted in September. Screenshots of the survey were provided to the AP by a person who was invited to take it. The survey explored how No Labels should select candidates to run on a bipar...
