Send us a textBuckle up, warfighters—this one's gonna rattle some cages. In this fire-breathing episode, Jared and Aaron torch the lazy talking points and break down why foreign aid isn't just “giving away your tax dollars.” From crushing fentanyl pipelines before they cross U.S. borders to outmaneuvering China's Belt and Road sleight of hand, this is your crash course in how global influence actually works. They pull no punches while explaining how smart international assistance builds partner capacity, prevents U.S. boots on the ground, and gives America leverage without dropping a single JDAM.

Concerns about the rise and rapid development of artificial intelligence often tend to focus on AI's threat to jobs or its potential to influence politics and elections. But what about the very real threat that AI poses to women? In her new book, The New Age of Sexism, feminist writer Laura Bates explores how the ever-evolving world of technology has become a danger to women and how the expanding scope of what's possible online is “reinventing misogyny.” In this episode, Bates talks to Róisín Ingle about the real harm caused by pornographic deepfakes, the alarming rise of AI girlfriends, and her eye-opening visit to a cyber brothel in Berlin.But first Irish Times journalist Niamh Towey is here to talk about some of the biggest stories of the week including the new Women's Aid report showing the rise in domestic violence disclosures, the latest in the Annie McCarrick case and the furore over the Bezos wedding in Venice.

[00:30] Trump Runs to Iran's Aid (50 minutes) Just two days after launching a bombing campaign against Iran's nuclear facilities, President Trump is lashing out at Israel for jeopardizing a ceasefire agreement with Iran. It appears Qatar, Iran and the U.S. also coordinated for Iran's face-saving strike at the U.S. base in Qatar. All this in order to offer Iran a way out of the conflict. President Trump also revealed that he's planning to lift sanctions on Iranian oil exports. Is this what “unconditional surrender” looks like? President Trump, similar to Barack Obama, has just offered Iran a lifeline. [51:00] Celtic Throne Feedback (4 minutes)

Send us a textSeason 2 Episode 48The Language of LossThe boy's are joined again today by another special guest Debbie Briden Author of her new book "The Language of Loss"Before retiring in October 2024, Debbie worked tirelessly for 2.5 years establishing a top-notch, bank-wide bereavement team. She spent six months researching how banks and customer service providers treat bereaved families, and we were  surprised to learn that it's often quite shocking.Through Debbie's involvement in external bereavement and loss training, along with her work with bereaved families, She became familiar with various grief behaviours. Her years of management experience have also given her insight into behaviours exhibited in response to loss, whether it pertains to health, wealth, or happiness; these reactions are pretty similar to those associated with grief.Debbie has taken everything she's learned and experienced and turned it into a book. It's not all doom and gloom—it will resonate with everyone. The book reassures readers that how they respond to any situation is normal and perfectly okay.Debbie kindly gives us a interview today which many will find interesting and will have experienced at some stage in their lives. We hope you enjoy todays Podcast and hope it helps you understand grief and how you can deal with it.Debbies book can be found on Amazon now by following the link below;https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Debbie-Bryden/author/B0F48ZSGLY?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true#HeartTransplant#eatingdisorder#RareCondition#HealthJourney#LifeChangingDiagnosis#MentalHealth#Vulnerability#SelfCompassion#PostTraumaticGrowth#MedicalMiracle#BBCSports#Inspiration#Cardiology#Surgery#Podcast#Healthcare#HeartHealth#MedicalBreakthrough#EmotionalJourney#SupportSystem#HealthcareHeroes#PatientStories#CardiologyCare#MedicalJourney#LifeLessons#MentalWellness#HealthAwareness#InspirationalTalk#LivingWithIllness#RareDiseaseAwareness#SharingIsCaring#MedicalSupport#BBCReporter#HeartDisease#PodcastInterview#HealthTalk#Empowerment#Wellbeing#HealthPodcast#greif#Aid's#HIVCheck out our website at www.whostomanddick.comCheck out our website at www.whostomanddick.com

This week on Spooky Sleepover, we're coming to you LIVE from CrimeCon with true crime YouTube star Eleanor Neale! Join us as we count down some of the deadliest, most chilling cults in history... including the ones that still haunt us today. Plus, discover a so-called "community" that's still active... and might just be recruiting. Could you be part of it?We had a great time recording with Eleanor at CrimeCon2025. Her section on the Twin Flame Universe was incredibly interesting. We reached out to the Twin Flame Universe for comment, and we just wanted to share their responses to some of the issues raised. Jeff and Shaleia want to make it clear that they do not condone or encourage any illegal behaviour and have said that there have never been any criminal charges or evidence of criminal wrongdoing against Twin Flames Universe, Jeff and/or Shaleia. In response to the suggestion that the TFU encourages stalking and harassment, they told us that they communicate frequently in Twin Flame Ascension School about the importance of having personal boundaries and honouring the boundaries of others however, they have said they cannot control the actions of others. In response to the allegation that treatment at the TFU culminated in a former member taking their own life, they said that this was suggestion was incorrect. They said a member of the public who was already under medical care registered online for a free consultation with the Mind Alignment Process (MAP) - a separate company also owned by Jeff Divine - but never attended it. Sadly, this individual later died by suicide. MAP practitioners make it clear they are not medical professionals, and their services are not a substitute for therapy or medical care.On the allegation that The TFU encourages members to transition into a different gender they told us that they never encourage any of their members to partake in any discussions or decisions that they are not comfortable with or that are not directly expressed by the students themselves. They concluded by saying that TFU is always respectful and conscientious of people's individual choices and identities, and that their community is open and unapologetically supportive of all LGBTQ+ members.This episode contains reference to and discussion of coercive control, please take care when listening.If you have been affected by any of the themes in this episode, please consider contacting the following resources:Refuge: 0808 2000 247 (also have online chat)Women's Aid: https://chat.womensaid.org.uk/ The Samaritans helpline: 116 123Confidential Emotional Support Line: 01708 765200Hope Not Hate: 020 7952 118Exit UK: 0800 999 1945Safeline national male survivor helpline: 0808 800 5005Sexual Assault Support Line: 01708 765200Sane mental health line: 0300 304 7000

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX The American Diabetes Association Scientific Sessions kicks off in a week – we expect as always to get a lot of information! I'm not covering in person this year, but I'll bring you any big announcements. And we'll do a wrap up In the News the following week. -- XX UVA with something new.. technology that allows an artificial pancreas system to adapt to users' changing needs – and lets users adjust the settings – beyond what's commercially available now. They're calling this “adaptive biobehavioral control,” the technology helps fine-tune UVA's artificial pancreas every two weeks, giving users a virtual tool to test different ways to manage their blood sugar using their own data. In a six-month study, participants using the technology spent more time in a healthy blood-sugar range, rising from 72% to 77%, and saw a small but meaningful drop in their average blood-sugar levels. While automated insulin delivery systems help users better manage Type 1 diabetes, adaptive biobehavioral control technology is designed to improve blood-sugar control during the day, when fluctuations occur more frequently due to meals and physical activity. This new technology uses “digital twins,” computer models simulating how a person's body processes sugar. The models help the artificial pancreas keep up with changes in the user's body and habits and give users a way to interact with the system. For example, users can try different settings, like how much insulin is released overnight, using the simulation before applying them in real life. https://news.virginia.edu/content/uvas-artificial-pancreas-uses-digital-twin-tech-improve-diabetes-control XX Five years later after COVID-19 his the US, a new study shows that there is a connection with type 1 diabetes triggers. This is  new research from the University of Utah published in the journal ImmunoInformatics.   With T1D in particular, a COVID infection appears to trigger the immune system of certain people who have a prior susceptibility to the condition to subsequently develop T1D symptoms, the new study suggests.   University of Utah researchers hypothesize that COVID is leading to T1D diagnoses in a roundabout way as the virus presents the body with “molecular mimics,” or fragments of COVID proteins that bear an uncanny resemblance to those beta cell antigens.   When a person is infected with COVID, the immune system not only attacks fragments of the viral protein but also attacks fragments of beta cell antigens because they look so similar and get mistaken for each other, explains lead study author Julio Facelli, Ph.D., a distinguished professor of biomedical informatics at University of Utah Health in Salt Lake City. That means that in people who are already predisposed to T1D, there may be a simultaneous autoimmune reaction involving the destruction of healthy beta cells, spurring the onset of type 1 diabetes. Both 2022 and 2024 research indicates that there has been a significant increase in new onset type 1 diabetes following the start of the COVID pandemic. It's difficult to estimate just how many cases may have been triggered by COVID because numerous viruses, including rotavirus, measles, mumps, and rubella, can spark an autoimmune response that activates T1D, according to the 2022 research published in Immunology & Cell Biology.   Again, it's important to note that researchers don't believe a COVID infection is causing diabetes, but rather, triggering it, in the same way certain environmental factors are believed to trigger immune-mediated conditions like Crohn's and psoriasis. “   https://www.healthcentral.com/news/type-1-diabetes/how-covid-might-trigger-t1d XX Insulet announces the Omnipod® 5 App for iPhone is now compatible with the Dexcom G7. Eric Benjamin, Insulet Executive Vice President, Chief Product and Customer Experience Officer. “With the addition of the Dexcom G7 sensor to the Omnipod 5 App for iPhone, our U.S. customers have more choice with fewer devices to keep track of, making it easier than ever to manage their diabetes.” The Omnipod 5 App with Dexcom G7 and Dexcom G6 compatibility is now available for download on the Apple App Store. Switching to a new Omnipod 5 device will require you to go through First Time Setup again. Insulin delivery history from previous Pods will be lost when you switch to your new device and adaptivity will start over. Use this guide and video to help transfer your settings: Omnipod also announced a collaboration with Marvel.. on an original comic to celebrate representation for the diabetes community and empower people with diabetes to unleash their inner hero. “Dyasonic: Sound of Strength” features Omnya, who was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, struggles with her management, and is prescribed an insulin pump. Omnya learns that when her glucose levels are in range she can take on anything, and anyone, and transforms into the comic's hero, Dyasonic! The hope is that readers will be able to see themselves overcoming these same challenges and break mental barriers to adopting technology with the potential for improved outcomes and quality of life. D'Spayre is a Marvel villain who preys on victims who are in despair, using their fear to strengthen himself—akin to the negative emotions that can come with diabetes. Insulet remains dedicated to advancing diabetes technology and improving the lives of people with diabetes. For more information, please visit https://www.omnipod.com/innovation. XX Tandem is the latest partner for Abbot's future Glucose-Ketone Sensor. New agreement to develop and commercialize integrated diabetes solutions that combine Abbott's future dual glucose-ketone sensor with Tandem's innovative insulin delivery systems to provide more options for people to manage their diabetes. The Abbott sensor, currently under development, will combine glucose and ketone sensing technology that aims to help people living with diabetes detect early ketone rise to avoid life-threatening diabetic ketoacidosis. Sequel Med Tech is also partnering with Abbott on this, as part of the twist pump, launching later this year. https://www.stocktitan.net/news/TNDM/tandem-diabetes-care-announces-agreement-with-abbott-for-integration-xl1vug3c0axy.html   XX New guidelines for the management of type 2 diabetes and prediabetes include tools clinicians can use to help patients stick to lifestyle interventions.   A panel of practitioners working in lifestyle medicine, including primary care physicians, cardiologists, endocrinologists, sleep experts, dietitians, and exercise medicine specialists, laid out six areas clinicians should help patients manage. These include sleep and stress, nutrition, physical activity, tobacco and alcohol, and social connection. The guidelines, released on June 10 by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM), largely mirror lifestyle guidelines by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) but add specifics about how clinicians can help patients achieve their goals. Each patient should still receive tailored counseling, which may include medication   https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/new-guidelines-shift-diabetes-care-toward-behavior-2025a1000fht XX Microplastics from a widely used biodegradable material can enter the metabolic cycle of bacteria and cells in the gut after being ingested, a new study has found. Researchers in China and the United States said the microplastics – from polylactic acid – were found to alter the gut metabolism and damage the gut barrier of mice.   They said this could potentially contribute to conditions like inflammatory bowel disease and diabetes. In recent years, microplastics have been found in human lungs, kidneys, blood, placenta and breast milk.   https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3313412/microplastics-biodegradable-material-may-be-linked-diabetes-study-finds XX ​​Over 19,000 cases of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar are being recalled after the cans were found to contain full-sugar soda, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced. The voluntary recall, initiated May 23, affects 12-pack and 24-pack cases of the 12-ounce aluminum cans that are labeled “Dr Pepper Zero Sugar.” Despite the label, the drinks inside contain the same amount of sugar found in regular Dr Pepper — about 39 grams per can — posing a health risk for people with diabetes or anyone needing to limit sugar intake. On Thursday, June 5, the FDA officially classified the recall as Class II, meaning the product “may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences." DR PEPPER ZERO SUGAR - 12 OZ, 12 PK DR PEPPER ZERO SUGAR - 12 OZ, 12 PK.  Amazon Consumers can identify the recalled cases by the product code, which is listed as  XXXXRS05165, and the "best by" date of Feb. 16, 2026   No other Dr Pepper products or batches of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar are part of the recall. https://people.com/dr-pepper-recall-sugar-found-in-zero-sugar-cans-11750981     XX A step forward for a device that uses breath to gather information about blood sugar. It's called Isaac, the company is PreEvnt, you wear it on a lanyard and breathe into it. The breathalyzer technology was developed in collaboration with the Integrated Nanosystems Development Institute at IU Indianapolis, and was inspired by diabetes alert dogs. "Our lab was able to successfully identify the specific molecules in breath that correlate with hypoglycemia, which is the 'scent' that diabetic alert dogs can detect," said Mangilal Agarwal, director of the Integrated Nanosystems Development Institute and a professor in the IU Luddy School of Informatics, Computing and Engineering at IU Indianapolis. Agarwal's lab is partnering with the IU School of Medicine to test and validate the effectiveness of the device in individuals with diabetes—an important next step on the path to wider commercialization. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-06-breathalyzer-device-diabetes.html#google_vignette XX Katie Bone is back on American Ninja Warrior! The youngest ever American Ninja Warrior Women's National winner, she injured her knee at Olympic Climbing Trials in 2023. This week, she was back on the show. She says: Katie Bone: It was incredible. I've not been able to compete for a few years, so getting to come back and hit a buzzer on my first chance back on the course felt really, really incredible; Very rewarding after everything I had to go through to get back there.

Not all interviews go according to plan. Even on a show that has over 500 episodes and the host has recorded over a thousand interviews. So what do you do? Air it anyway? What if the content of that episode is questionable, objectionable, or problematic in some other way? Well, sometimes the simplest answer is to just can it.And that's what happened a few weeks ago on the media criticism edition of CANADALAND. For the first time in its history, the show ran without its classic segment “Duly Noted” because host Jesse Brown and co-host Cenk Uygur were eventually just screaming at one another. And more than that, Jesse didn't feel that material could be published. At least, not without the right context.So today, host Sam Konnert brings us through what happened on that day, and then follows up with Jesse and Cenk after the fact, to see what they thought went wrong. And why it's ok to publish it now.Host: Sam KonnertCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Producer), Tony Wang (Executive Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Guest: Cenk UygurAdditional music by Audio NetworkFurther Reading:U.S. Aid to Israel in Four Charts — Council on Foreign Relations'All Jewish Americans are questioning their security' after violent antisemitic attacks — BBCCanada, Western allies sanction two Israeli lawmakers for incitement of ‘extremist violence' — The Globe & MailThis show is available exclusively to Canadaland supporters.

The coalition's ultra-Orthodox parties, United Torah Judaism and Shas, announced they will join the opposition to vote in favor of dissolving the Knesset due to its failure to pass a law exempting the ultra-orthodox from serving in the IDF. If a simple majority votes in favor of dissolving the Knesset, it would force parliamentary elections.As if the news pouring out of Israel wasn't enough, major developments are also taking place in Gaza. The food-aid program, run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, is showing signs of success in circumventing Hamas, weakening its political power of Gaza's population. This food aid program is not just a humanitarian endeavor; it is part of a larger strategy that was developed over the past year, referred to as humanitarian bubbles, in which Hamas-free zones are intended to be administered by vetted local Palestinians unaffiliated with Hamas. Prime Minister Netanyahu confirmed today that Israel is providing weapons to an anti-Hamas militia, led by Yasser Abu-Shabab. The rise of Israel-backed Abu-Shabab, along with the weakening of Hamas' political and military power, has prompted a conversation about whether we are witnessing the early stages of the day after Hamas in Gaza.Our guest today is Joseph Braude. He leads the Center for Peace Communications (CPC), a nonprofit that amplifies Gazans who oppose Hamas, and has been active inside the Gaza Strip throughout the war. If you've seen a video of Gazans speaking out against Hamas, chances are they came to you through the CPC.It is the first time we will be speaking with someone who has been in close contact with direct sources inside Gaza's population. In fact, Joseph has helped us receive audio to questions that the Call me Back podcast sent directly to Gazan civilians. CREDITS:ILAN BENATAR - Producer & EditorMARTIN HUERGO - Sound EditorMARIANGELES BURGOS - Additional EditingMAYA RACKOFF - Operations DirectorGABE SILVERSTEIN - ResearchYUVAL SEMO - Music Composer

Teresa Carrington is CEO of a not for profit, Ten By ThreeWhat does Ten By Three mean? "TEN" reflects the number of products we promise to purchase monthly from artisans who live in extreme poverty. "By" reflects a Prosperity Wages model.10x3 pay artisans at least 2.5 times the fair trade rate, enabling them to care of their families and have enough extra to start businesses. Unlike micro-lending, this ensures financial independence without debt."THREE" requires artisans to begin at least three businesses. Each business generates an average of four income streams, giving artisans at least 12 streams of income. This sparks generational wealth and ensures a sustainable exit from poverty.Summary of the PodcastCharity and Giving BackThe group discusses Theresa's charity work and passion for helping those in poverty. She shares her personal story of overcoming hardship and how that has driven her to create a charity that empowers artisans in developing countries. Kevin & Graham praise Theresa's mission and the positive impact of her "Ten by Three" model.Expanding the Charity's ReachTheresa outlines her goals for the charity, including expanding into more of the world's poorest nations, spreading the "Ten by Three" model to other organisations and governments, and building up financial reserves to provide more stability. We discuss the challenges and opportunities around achieving these goals.Passion and PurposeThe group reflects on the passion and purpose that drives Theresa and her charity work. They discuss how this level of dedication and commitment is essential for making a real difference, and how it can inspire and motivate others to get involved and support the cause.Lessons from Aid and DevelopmentLastly, we touch on the potential pitfalls of traditional aid and development efforts, noting how they can sometimes do more harm than good by not properly understanding the needs of the local communities. We emphasise the importance of trade over aid and empowering people to develop from within.The Next 100 Days Podcast Co-HostsGraham ArrowsmithGraham founded Finely Fettled ten years ago to help business owners and marketers market to affluent and high-net-worth customers.

The assault injured six elderly individuals, aged between 67 and 88 — including a survivor of the Holocaust — with at least one victim in critical condition. In Paris, vandals defaced the Holocaust Memorial, two synagogues, and a Jewish restaurant in a coordinated act of antisemitic violence. These horrific events come just over one week after Elias Rodriguez, a radical, leftist activist, murdered two Israeli embassy staffers outside the Jewish museum in Washington DC. We have been hearing from Israelis who lived through the Intifada in Israel, as they reflect on what “Globalize the Intifada” means when it reaches our country; we hear one Israeli's perspective in today's episode. Meanwhile, just as it appeared that Israel was facing increasing international pressure, it is Hamas's position in the hostage negotiations that is weakening with time, according to U.S. officials. Late on Wednesday, the United States vetoed a United Nations Security Council resolution calling for an  “immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire” between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, the release of all the hostages and unhindered aid access across the enclave. Dorothy Shea, Acting US Ambassador to the UN cited the failure to condemn Hamas and calling for its disarmament as the reason for the veto. Nadav Eyal, senior analyst at Yedioth Achronot, joins us to discuss the implications of the antisemitic terror attack in Boulder as well as the turmoil in Gaza. CREDITS:ILAN BENATAR - Producer & EditorMARTIN HUERGO - Sound EditorMARIANGELES BURGOS - Additional EditingGABE SILVERSTEIN - ResearchYUVAL SEMO - Music Composer

So many times since October 7, the UN and many governments have raised alarms regarding imminent and mass starvation in the Gaza Strip. It never materialized. But recently a serious crisis with respect to food availability has developed there. The causes of this food scarcity are not as simple as the media and many national leaders would have us believe. There have been rash and constant allegations smearing Israel, alleging that food deliveries were withheld in order to starve the civilian population. Not only is that a very distorted—and untrue—version of reality, but it has become gospel to so many. Based on facts? No. The BBC—once the gold standard of journalism—is leading the pack of purveyors of misinformation but has plenty of company among big mainstream media and all manner of smaller publications. But it is the BBC that has had to crawl back and retract several reports recently on the basis that they were unfounded. Same with UN Head of Aid and former UK diplomat Tom Fletcher. So—what the heck is going on in the Gaza Strip? I discuss this issue in depth with frequent State of Tel Aviv guest, Lt. Col. (Res.) Jonathan Conricus, Senior Fellow at FDD, high-profile TV commentator, and public speaker. It's been a while since he has joined us, but it's wonderful to have him back.Below, we offer a small sample of the gusher of information that is available. Sifting through what's real and what is not is super challenging. In this context it is compounded by the manner in which the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has approached this communications and humanitarian crisis. We discuss it all. Podcast Notes:* Jerusalem Post article regarding UN Head of Aid, Tom Fletcher's, Unfounded Claim that 14,000 babies would die within 48 hours.* Example of BBC “verification” of already published information which they cannot, well, verify.* Report on UN Head of Aid Tom Fletcher's comment regarding 10,000 trucks of food being denied entry to Gaza by Israel* BBC article. This article is a strange one. BBC presents it as if it refutes the accusations made by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt regarding BBC reports having been retracted/corrected. However, if you read the BBC response to Leavitt, they just muddy the waters. Bottom line? They pounced to report without clear evidence to support their claims that were originating and in a highly volatile environment.

He served in the IDF for 24 years, four of them as spokesman during the intense 11 days of the Guardian of the Walls Operation between Israel and Hamas. Now a reserve officer with the rank of Lt.

Sarah Benson, chief executive of Women's Aid, discusses new research which finds Irish Family Law system causes increased vulnerability to victim-survivors of domestic abuse and violence.

Aid operations in Gaza have been suspended after Israeli authorities declared key distribution routes active combat zones, warning civilians to stay away. The move follows the deaths of at least 27 Palestinians near an aid site in Rafah, with witnesses and Gaza's civil defence accusing Israeli forces of opening fire on people collecting food. Israel denies targeting civilians and says troops fired warning shots at individuals who had left the designated route.

Israel’s war on Gaza has turbocharged its already booming military-tech industry, with weapons and surveillance systems tested on Palestinians continuing to be sold around the world. Israel’s role as a global arms innovator has only deepened since October 7, 2023, and some governments and corporations are profiting.

Since October 7, access to food in Gaza – and its systematic restriction by Israel – has been the subject of international condemnation. The most recent incident is the killing of dozens of Palestinians attempting to obtain food from an aid distribution centre.Israeli settlers have blocked roads, and aid delivery. Aid convoys and workers have also been targeted with violence. And as of March, Israel established a full scale blockade on aid into the Gaza strip. Today a trickle has been allowed into the territory.International organizations have been warning of famine in Gaza for more than a year. Alex de Waal is the executive director of the World Peace Foundation at Tufts University, and author of ‘Mass Starvation: The History and Future of Famine.' He joins the show for a discussion about starvation crimes, why the weaponization of food during wartime continues, and how famine has proven difficult to prosecute in court.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

The aid crisis in Gaza is deepening. This morning, Israeli soldiers opened fire near crowds of Palestinians approaching a new food distribution site in southern Gaza, the Israeli military confirmed. At least 27 people were killed and dozens more wounded, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. This comes just days after a similar incident left 31 dead and nearly 200 injured, an event for which Israel has denied responsibility.As famine looms and disease spreads through the devastated territory, civilians are caught in an increasingly desperate struggle for survival. Aid is scarce, humanitarian convoys are often attacked or held indefinitely at the Gaza border, and the infrastructure needed to deliver essential supplies has collapsed.In this episode of The Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy is in Jerusalem, speaking to Milena Ansari, a Palestinian lawyer and researcher with Human Rights Watch, and Zvika Klein, editor-in-chief of The Jerusalem Post. They discuss how the crisis is unfolding, why so little aid is getting through, and who is being held accountable.

Two staunch child advocates, Bruce Lesley of First Focus on Children and Phoebe Boyer of Children's Aid, talk about the detrimental impact of poverty on children and the crucial role of social safety nets and nonprofit organizations in mitigating this harm.“Every aspect of the life of a child is negatively impacted by poverty. It impacts their health, their education, their early childhood, their nutrition, their housing situation, and also abuse and neglect,” Lesley states. “I look at every child that comes into our programs as having incredible potential, and there are all these barriers in their way, and our job is to remove those barriers,” says Boyer. Both guests stress that all of us have a role to play in protecting children against proposed changes and cuts to safety net programs that threaten kids' wellbeing and ability to thrive.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
