Greek fighter jet locks in on Turkish warships near Cyprus: photos

BEIRUT, LEBANON (2:30 P.M.) – A Greek fighter jet locked in on a Turkish frigate that was traveling off the coast of Cyprus on December 8, 2019, the Aviationist reported. Citing photos from the Twitter profile of journalist Yannis Nikitas, the Aviationist reported that a Greek Mirage 2000 jet targeted the Turkish frigate with Exocet anti-ship missiles during a show of force over the weekend. “In the photos we can see the HUD of a Mirage 2000, recognizable also by the characteristic Mirage refueling probe, as it gets a lock on a ship which, according to the caption, could be a Turkish frigate.

Brian Eno Shares New Song “Everything’s On The Up With The Tories” Ahead Of UK Election

The UK general election will take place this Thursday, and Brian Eno has shared quite an original song ahead of the vote. Eno has been extremely vocal about his politics for decades now, and he was among the public figures who signed a letter expressing support for Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn in the upcoming election. Naturally, the title of his new song, "Everything's On The Up With The Tories," is deeply tongue-in-cheek. It's a very British jaunt that lays into the party of Boris Johnson. Some lyrics: "Everything's up the creek with the Blue Boys/ They're selling off the NHS to cowboys/ They're cutting back on nurses, but investing it in hearses, the nitwits, and the we-don't-have-a-clue boys." And more: "Everything's on the up with the righties/ Who worship at the feet of Trump Almighty/ There's people in the street without a bloody crust to eat/ But everything's on the up with the Tories." If you're in the UK, find a guide to voting here and check out Eno's song below.

Well, the day has arrived. The long-awaited report from Michael Horowitz, the Department of Justice’s inspector general, on the alleged FISA abuses that occurred under the Obama administration will be released. We already have some tidbits that this report doesn’t corroborate the allegation that the Obama White House spied on the Trump campaign, but it will conclude that there were deviations from department policy concerning the process in obtaining these warrants.

Gini Wijnaldum returns to training ahead Liverpool’s trip to Salzburg

Liverpool prepared for their Champions League game with Salzburg with a training session at Melwood in front of the cameras. A make-or-break tie in Austria sees the Reds needing a draw to guarantee progression, while a win would seal top spot in the group. Jurgen Klopp would love to have his entire squad available for such a crucial encounter, but the Reds are without Fabinho and Joel Matip for the entirety of the Christmas fixture list. A couple of injury scares at the weekend added to that concern, but Dejan Lovren—who went off in the first half—and Gini Wijnaldum—who missed the game entirely—were both in training with the squad at Melwood on Monday afternoon. Adam Lallana, who also missed the trip to Dean Court, seemed to train apart from the main group, however, making it unlikely he features in the squad in Austria.
