Canadian travel to Las Vegas continues to crater amid U. S. President Donald Trump's attacks on Canada, and the tourism slump in Sin City has become a major midterm election issue. Nevada Democrats are trying to capitalize on the decline, blaming Trump's trade war and threats toward Canada — the state's largest source of international tourists. "The Trump Slump is real, and Las Vegas tourism is tanking," the party said in one of its campaign messages ahead of the November vote in this crucial swing state. "Nevadans are struggling under Trump's tourism crisis," is another line the party has deployed as it puts the fractured relationship with Canada front and centre in this election. Pedestrians cross an overpass along the Las Vegas Strip, with the Trump International Hotel visible in the background. Nevada Democrats are trying to capitalize on the economic fallout from Trump's trade war with Canada, which they blame for hurting tourism.

Israeli settlers attack European diplomats during West Bank olive harvest - Al Jazeera

Israeli settlers have attacked European diplomats, including a French mayor, near the Palestinian village of Taybeh in the occupied West Bank. The delegation was visiting Palestinian olive harvesters on Saturday when the Israeli attackers confronted the group. The attack comes a day after settlers assaulted a US journalist north of Ramallah. In Saturday’s incident, the settlers targeted Belgium’s consul general, French and Polish diplomats and Catholic representatives, Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot said. “A French mayor was assaulted and a Belgian vehicle damaged,” Prevot said, linking the attack to what he called Israel’s “illegal settlement policy” and pledging to push for further European Union sanctions. French mayor Bernard Baudoux, who was assaulted, told the AFP news agency that the violence suggests that “there is a tolerance on the part of the Israeli government” towards settler violence. Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh, reporting from Ramallah, said the settlers surrounded the diplomats’ vehicles, pelted them with stones and smashed their windows.
