Podcasts about Bashar

South of the Syrian capital Damascus, Yarmouk refugee camp was the scene of violent clashes between Bashar al-Assad's regime and rebel militias, and later the Islamic State group, during the almost 14-year-long Syrian war. Ahmed and Jihane Tameem were among those who fled the bombs at the end of 2012. Three years later, they left Syria and found refuge in Sweden with their two children. Now, after the fall of Assad, they have returned home to reunite with their loved ones. FRANCE 24's Claire Billet and Olivier Jobard report.

Líder da ONU enviou condolências a todos os sírios e pediu fim imediato dos ataques; para ele, é hora de realizar uma transição política credível, ordenada e inclusiva após a queda do regime do presidente Bashar al-Assad, em dezembro de 2024.

What is the real motive behind Israel's involvement in Syria? Since the fall of Bashar al-Assad, it's repeatedly bombed and extended its occupation, saying it's defending the Druze minority. But what are the long-term implications of Israel's actions in Syria?

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Five IDF divisions, made up of tens of thousands of troops, continue to operate across Gaza. Dozens of airstrikes were carried out in the past days, but one in particular has captured international attention: a strike near a Gaza water distribution point that reportedly killed several children. The IDF said Sunday that it was an accident and attributed it to a “technical malfunction.” Fabian reports on the accidental strike and compares the IDF's quick accountability of it to reports of mass deaths from humanitarian aid distribution sites. A proposed plan to establish a “humanitarian city” in southern Gaza’s Rafah continues to receive backlash. According to the plan, at least 600,000 Palestinians would be allowed into a newly rebuilt area of the city after being cleared that they are not Hamas. Some critics -- including former prime minister Ehud Olmert -- allege that it resembles the Nazi concentration camps built during World War II. Fabian talks about the plan, puts it in to the greater context of the entire Gideon's Chariots operation and explains the reported criticism from within the IDF itself. Israeli troops found more than three tons of weapons while raiding military facilities inside Syria, including anti-tank mines, explosive devices, and rockets. The sites had been maintained by the deposed Bashar al-Assad regime. We hear about the raid and the scale of the troops' finds. Israel’s most advanced communications satellite, dubbed Dror-1, was successfully launched into space from Cape Canaveral in the United States on Sunday aboard a Falcon 9 two-stage rocket, manufactured by Elon Musk’s SpaceX. Fabian was inside the Israeli control room and reports back. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

In December 2024, the long and bloody stalemate in Syria broke down. In a transformation breathtaking for its suddenness and speed, President Bashar al-Assad, the beating heart of Arab authoritarianism, fled to Russia, his dungeons emptying as rebels overcame the Syrian army with scarcely a fight. Euphoria at the collapse of a government people never voted for was tempered by fear for the future. The victorious insurgents were supported by outside powers and had a track record of brutality comparable to Assad's in addition to religious fanaticism. Syrians—whose fragile, cosmopolitan mosaic has been repeatedly shattered by foreign-backed sectarians—faced rule by an avowedly Islamist regime that pledged to break with its past and show tolerance to all religious communities. In this illuminating and concise survey, Charles Glass shows how Assad's misrule, Sunni fundamentalism, and Western deceit combined to create and prolong the Syrian disaster, which since 2011 has claimed more than two hundred thousand lives and driven more than eight million people from their homes. Glass has reported extensively from the Middle East and travelled frequently in Syria for more than fifty years. Here he melds reportage, analysis, and history to provide an accessible overview of the origins and permutations defining the conflict, situating it clearly in the broader crises of the region. In this new and thoroughly revised edition of his earlier Syria Burning, Glass brings the story to the present, showing how we got here and what a post-Assad settlement might bring. About the Author: Charles Glass was ABC News Chief Middle East Correspondent from 1983 to 1993. Since 1973, he has covered wars in the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. He is the author of Syria Burning, Tribes with Flags, The Tribes Triumphant, Money for Old Rope, The Northern Front, Americans in Paris, The Deserters, They Fought Alone and Soldiers Don't Go Mad: A Story of Brotherhood, Poetry, and Mental Illness During the First World War.

On June 13, 2025, Israel initiated “Operation Rising Lion,” attacking Iran's ballistic missiles installations, eliminating a significant number of Iran's elite military leadership and nuclear scientists. Then on June 21, 2025, the United States unleashed “Operation Midnight Hammer” and attacked Iran's nuclear facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. Now that the dust has settled, what are the key takeaways from these military operations? During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd and Pastor Rich Jones discuss the ramifications of both strikes and also provide an assessment of the ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

Today, I'm thrilled to share a conversation with someone I've admired from afar for quite some time — Bashar Wali. If you've spent any time in the hospitality space, chances are you've come across Bashar's work — or at least his words. He's the former President and CEO of Provenance Hotels, and today he leads two companies he founded: Practice Hospitality, a management company focused on culturally resonant independent hotels, and This Assembly, a hospitality think tank and incubator building what's next for the industry. What I love most about Bashar is that he's refreshingly candid, wildly insightful, and deeply passionate about this space — not just because it's his career, but because it's in his DNA. In this episode, we get into: Why hospitality is not the same as service — and how even a roadside motel can deliver deeply human moments that a five-star hotel might miss. Why Bashar believes loyalty programs are really just bribery, and what real loyalty actually looks like. How he went from having visited just two countries by age 20 to now traveling like a true nomad — and how that wanderlust has shaped his worldview. Why the world's best operators are not just spreadsheet wizards, but curators of culture who know how to feel what's cool — and create spaces where others can feel it too. And why the soft brand strategy has lost its edge — not because the concept is broken, but because the execution rarely matches the promise. Bashar and I also talk about the role that AI should play in hospitality, the difference between trend-chasing and trend-observing, and what it takes for hotels to stop being sterile, beige boxes and become — in his words — merchants of cool again. This is one of those episodes that had me nodding, laughing, and taking notes at the same time. Bashar is equal parts philosopher and practitioner — and I think you're going to get a ton out of this. Let's dive in.

It was wonderful to talk with Kyle and give some updates on the channel including an announcement of our first retreat. After years of study, breakthrough discoveries, and profound transformation work with my coaching clients, I'm ready to share something that will change everything... REALITY CON IS BACK — and this time, it's unlike anything I've ever created.From Reality Con 1 (actualizing your reality) to Reality Con 2 (transitioning to the new earth) to Reality Con 3 (manifesting large sums of money), we've journeyed together through incredible transformations. But now, after taking time to dive deep into the quantum mechanics of reality shifting, I've discovered something extraordinary. ✨ INTRODUCING: REALITY CON - TOTAL SHIFT INTO YOUR IDEAL TIMELINE ✨ September 26-28, 2025 | Golden Heart Estates, Portland, Maine This isn't just another event. This is the culmination of everything I've learned about shifting into alternative realities — distilled into an intensive 3-day immersive experience that goes beyond any book, meditation, or online program you've ever encountered. Here's what makes this different:

Donald Trump cumplió la promesa que le hizo en mayo al presidente interino de Siria, Ahmed al-Sharaa: a través de un decreto levantó la mayor parte de las sanciones al país. Aún se mantendrán otras que dependen directamente del Congreso estadounidense. Es la primera acción de este tipo en más de 20 años y un gesto que, según Washington, busca dar una oportunidad a la estabilidad en el país. ¿Qué hay detrás del levantamiento de las sanciones a Siria tras el fin del régimen de Bashar al-Assad? ¿Qué papel juega Israel en estas acciones? Para analizar el tema, participan en El Debate dos invitados. - Rafaelle Mauriello, historiador y analista internacional. - Erik Fajardo, consultor político e internacionalista.

Darryl Anka Channeling Bashar - Join the Sixth Hybrid Race AwakeningDarryl Anka is an American spiritual medium and filmmaker best known for channeling an entity named Bashar. According to Anka, Bashar is an extraterrestrial being from the planet Essassani, located approximately 500 light-years away in the direction of the Orion constellation. Anka describes Bashar as existing in a parallel reality and time frame that we perceive as the future. (Reddit, rationalwiki.org)Anka's journey into channeling began after he reported witnessing two daylight UFO sightings in the 1970s. These experiences led him to explore UFO phenomena and the paranormal. Approximately ten years later, he attended a channeling class, during which he claims to have received a telepathic message from Bashar. This experience prompted him to begin channeling Bashar, a practice he has continued since the 1980s. (rationalwiki.org, bashar.org)Through Anka, Bashar conveys teachings that focus on personal empowerment and the nature of reality. Key concepts include the idea that all possible realities exist simultaneously and that individuals can shift between these realities by changing their beliefs and attitudes. Bashar emphasizes the importance of acting on one's highest excitement without attachment to specific outcomes, suggesting this approach aligns individuals with their true purpose.Anka has shared Bashar's messages through various mediums, including live seminars, books, and documentaries. One notable documentary is "First Contact," which explores Anka's experiences and the messages conveyed by Bashar. While Anka's work has garnered a following, it has also faced skepticism. Critics question the veracity of his claims and the authenticity of channeling extraterrestrial entities. Nonetheless, Anka continues to share Bashar's teachings, focusing on themes of self-empowerment and the exploration of consciousness.

La reciente guerra entre Irán e Israel ha sorprendido a muchos por como Rusia, un aliado tradicional de Irán, se puso de perfil. Ambos países comparten intereses y sanciones internacionales, lo que ha fortalecido su cooperación en áreas como la militar, la económica y la energética. El año pasado firmaron incluso un pacto estratégico para los próximos 20 años en el que se comprometen a colaborar en el ámbito militar con ejercicios conjuntos. Irán, entretanto, ha estado suministrando a Rusia drones Shahed para la guerra de Ucrania, un arma que al Kremlin le ha resultado muy útil por su bajo precio. Fue, de hecho, la invasión de Ucrania en 2022 lo que consolidó la alianza ruso-iraní. Unos recibían drones y los otros valiosos consejos para evadir las sanciones al crudo. La relación también ha beneficiado a Rusia de forma indirecta. Irán apoya, financia y arma a Hamas, que en octubre de 2023 realizó un gran atentado en el sur de Israel. Esto desvió la atención de Ucrania, complicó a las potencias occidentales e incrementó los precios del petróleo, algo que a los rusos siempre les viene bien. En respuesta a la guerra que se desató en Gaza, Vladimir Putin se ofreció como mediador tras el ataque, recibió a delegaciones de Hamás y de los hutíes, la milicia yemení que controla buena parte de Yemen. A estos últimos les ayudan desde Moscú de forma rutinaria proporcionándoles las coordenadas de los barcos occidentales que navegan por el mar Rojo. Pero en la guerra entre Irán e Israel Rusia se ha mantenido al margen, evitando intervenir directamente. Esta cautela se debe a su limitada capacidad para proyectar poder en Oriente Medio tras años de desgaste, especialmente en Ucrania. Aunque Putin ha condenado los ataques israelíes y ha criticado a Estados Unidos, no ha proporcionado a Irán asistencia militar, algo de lo que el ejército iraní está muy necesitado, especialmente en el aire, donde dependen de aviones de combate obsoletos como el F5 Tiger o el F14 Tomcat, ambos retirados hace décadas en Estados Unidos. La neutralidad rusa responde también a la necesidad de equilibrar relaciones con otras potencias regionales como Irán, Arabia Saudita e Israel. En Rusia saben que Israel no es más que una prolongación de EEUU en Oriente Medio, pero admiran su asertividad y la afición que sus Gobiernos tienen por los hechos consumados. Hay, además, una comunidad de origen ruso muy numerosa viviendo en Israel, lo que refuerza los lazos culturales y políticos entre ambos países. La política rusa en Oriente Medio, iniciada en Siria hace una década tras el repliegue estadounidense, buscaba aprovechar oportunidades. La caída de Bashar al-Assad y la incapacidad rusa para defender a su protegido muestran su debilidad actual. Aunque Irán sigue siendo un aliado importante, Rusia ya fabrica sus propios Shahed y mira con recelo un Irán nuclear o un cambio de régimen pro-occidental en Teherán. La prioridad de Putin es Ucrania y conservar la hegemonía en el espacio postsoviético. Eso implica evitar a toda costa riesgos innecesarios en una región muy volátil donde no puede permitirse el lujo de reemplazar a Estados Unidos como árbitro.

In this episode, we're joined by two industry trailblazers who've gone from the frontlines of patient care to the frontlines of cannabis supply. Bashar Al-Humrany (a pharmacist) and Joel Green (a nurse) first crossed paths at Melbourne's Astrid Dispensary, one of the first dedicated medicinal cannabis dispensaries in the country. Together, they saw firsthand where the system was helping... and where it was falling short. Now, they've teamed up to launch Exotican, an Australian medicinal cannabis importer built from the ground up by people who understand patients, products, and prescriptions. We're talking clinical insight, industry gaps, and of course  the Bash Brothers of cannabis.In this episode:Clinical experience informing patient care (4:00)The inception of Exotican (9:30)Setting standards in medicine (12:30)Imports vs. Aussie Grown (18:00)Mighty Ducks Quiz (24:30)What GPs need to know (31:30)Managing culture and medicine (33:40)When  patient is “on the edge” (37:30)Exotican's Values (41:00)Product Innovation (42:50)The importance of education (48:15)Pauls of Wisdom (50:00)Follow @exoticanau on InstagramVisit www.giveandtoke.com.auFollow @giveandtoke on InstagramEmail giveandtoke@gmail.comALL OPINIONS EXPRESSED IN THIS SHOW ARE PERSONAL AND DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT THOSE OF MY EMPLOYER.

Hamas' October 7, 2023, paradigm-shifting attack has prompted Israel to change its defense doctrine with devastating consequences for the Middle East. No longer satisfied with operating on the principle of deterrence, involving regular strikes against Hamas in Gaza and Lebanon, militant Palestinian groups in the West Bank, Yemen's Houthi rebels, Iranian targets in Syria and the Islamic Republic, and Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria, Israel's new defense doctrine focuses on militarily emasculating its opponents. The new doctrine, focused on kinetic rather than negotiated solutions, has driven Israeli military operations since the Hamas attack broke a psychological barrier by successfully breaching Israeli defences and invading Israeli territory. Hamas and other Palestinians killed some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, in the attack. Israel's subsequent decimation of Hamas and Hezbollah, the Iran-backed Lebanese Shiite militia and political movement, with little regard for the cost to innocent human lives, offered proof of concept for a strategy that involves killing top leaders and destroying military infrastructure based on the Jewish state's military and intelligence superiority. In addition to the devastation of Gaza in a bid to destroy Hamas militarily and politically and the weakening of Hezbollah, Israel has destroyed much of the Syrian military arsenal and infrastructure since the fall of President Bashar al-Assad. Now, it is targeting Iran's military command, missile and launcher arsenal, and nuclear facilities. “The unexpected degree of success…reduced Israeli wariness about launching a similar campaign against Iran, despite expectations that a severe Iranian response might still be forthcoming,” said Michael Koplow, chief policy officer at the Israel Policy Forum. Alarmingly, Israel's newly conceived dominance-driven military assertiveness has fueled public anger and widespread anticipation of war across the Middle East.

Tussen Israël en Iran woedt een heftige strijd van luchtmacht, raketten, cyberoorlog en speciale eenheden. Maar deze oorlog kon niemand verrassen en was eigenlijk al jaren gaande.Hoe begrijpen we wat hier gebeurt; wat in Iran en de dictatuur van de ayatollahs gaande is en in Israël en de complexe politieke verhoudingen en cultuur daar? Jaap Jansen PG Kroeger kijken naar de gruwelijke en vaak eeuwenoude context van dit conflict.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo.

De complete tekst plus linkjes en een overzicht van al onze eerdere afleveringen vind je hier***Al vele jaren is onderhuids en af en toe opflakkerend sprake van deze oorlog. Israël zette zijn uiterst doeltreffende hightech en geheime diensten in, Iran gebruikte terreurorganisaties en andere verlengde armen om Israël continu te bedreigen. Met cyberaanvallen op ondergrondse nucleaire installaties en aanslagen op kerngeleerden en militaire commandanten maakte Israël duidelijk dat in Iran niemand zich veilig kon voelen voor zijn macht.De aanval van Hamas op 7 oktober 2023 was onderdeel van deze oorlog waarin het regime in Teheran Israël op een reeks fronten tegelijk wilde destabiliseren. Omdat Benjamin Netanyahu besefte dat hij niet meer kon rekenen op de volledige steun van de Verenigde Staten - zeker niet nadat Donald Trump het kernwapen-akkoord met Teheran eenzijdig ongedaan maakte – ging hij uiteindelijk zijn eigen gang.Zo werden de handlangers van ayatollah Ali Khamenei het eerste doelwit. Hezbollah, Houthi's in Yemen, milities in Irak en Hamas in Gaza zijn met grof geweld aangepakt. Het regime in Teheran werd bovendien verder geïsoleerd en ingesnoerd door samenwerking van Trump met Arabische heersers, die hem aan zich bonden door zijn zucht naar 'deals'.De cruciale wijziging in de machtsverhoudingen kwam met de instorting van de belangrijkste bondgenoot van Iran en Rusland, het gruwelijke bewind van Bashar al-Assad in Syrië. Voor zowel het Kremlin als de ayatollahs was dit een funeste nederlaag. Teheran stond geheel alleen. Bovendien blijkt nu dat de Russische militaire technologie tegenover die van Israël onmachtig is. Duidelijk is dat vele lessen uit Oekraïne hier worden toegepast.Netanyahu wil Iran militair voor decennia verzwakken en de nucleaire capaciteit maximaal reduceren. Voor dat laatste zou Amerika weleens nodig moeten zijn. Maar voor Trump is regimewisseling geen doel op zich. De VS hebben in Irak hun lesje geleerd.Onder de buurstaten ziet vooral Turkije zijn positie nog machtiger worden en verliest Rusland na Syrië nóg een cruciale bondgenoot.Veel pleit er dan ook voor om beter te leren begrijpen hoe landen als Iran en Syrië zich historisch, cultureel en politiek van binnenuit hebben ontwikkeld. Zeker zo complex is trouwens ook Israël. Al in de memoires van Obama en Merkel was duidelijk: zij beseften dat het een misverstand was om Netanyahu en de Israëlische politieke cultuur als ‘westers' te beschouwen.Het land van Netanyahu is al lang niet meer de bijna Westeuropese sociaaldemocratie van Golda Meïr, Yitzhak Rabin en Shimon Peres. De demografische en cultureel-etnische diversiteit zijn enorm, eigenlijk zoals overal elders in het Midden-Oosten. Regeringen zijn permanent wisselende samenraapsels van kleine groeperingen en sekten rond een sterke man als vast ankerpunt. Ook voor de gunsten uit de overheidskassen. Netanyahu regeert in allianties waarin loyaliteit en wederzijds verraad elkaar ongeremd afwisselen. Israël lijkt nu veel meer op zijn buren dan op een EU-lidstaat.Misschien vertelt dit ook wel waarom Geert Wilders dit zo bewondert. Netanyahu is immers een sterke, bijna autocratische 'baas' met om zich heen nooit écht loyale vazallen die voor hun positie, status en levensonderhoud van hem afhankelijk zijn. Dat deze ook nog de alles beheersende centrale machtsfiguur van de natie is, maakt hem nog meer een voorbeeld.***Verder luisteren377 - Golda Meïr, Israël, triomf en tragiek315 - Vrouw, leven, vrijheid: oorzaken en achtergronden van het straatprotest in Iran.

Darryl Anka Channeling Bashar - Discover Portals To Other Realms Through Earth's Hidden Shells

The fall of Bashar al-Assad last December did not erase the deep-rooted prejudices within Syrian society. Identity and political divisions remain vivid, and since January, sectarian clashes have been increasing. In a country as fragmented as Syria, old grudges are simmering, with many taking justice into their own hands – driven by a thirst for revenge against those they view as traitors or internal enemies. Amid this escalating violence, the authorities insist they are committed to holding those responsible accountable. Meanwhile, civil society is doing what it can to keep hope alive by calling for dialogue and pushing for national unity. Our correspondent in Syria, Jenna Le Bras, reports.

Entre más dura la operación militar israelí, más crece la sensación de que Rusia tiene mucho que perder en esta región tras la caída de Bashar al Assad en Siria.

La ofensiva israelí contra Irán tiene dos objetivos, según Tel Aviv: Frenar las ambiciones nucleares de Teherán y provocar una caída del régimen. RFI habló con un experto sobre la dificultad que entraña este segundo aspecto, además de la posibilidad de que los ataques, en lugar de acabar con el programa nuclear iraní, convenzan al régimen de que necesitan un arma nuclear como elemento disuasorio más que nunca.  Israel e Irán siguen intercambiando ataques aéreos tras la ofensiva actual  iniciada por Tel Aviv el viernes 13 de junio. El objetivo israelí, según el primer ministro Netanyahu, es doble: Acabar con el programa nuclear de Irán y derrocar al régimen teocrático instaurado en la república islámica.  Sin embargo, lo segundo no es fácil. Jesús Manuel Pérez Triana, analista de seguridad y defensa, explicó a RFI cómo los ataques israelíes posiblemente sirvan para que Teherán claudique en sus aspiraciones nucleares, pero es difícil que lleguen a algo más: "Yo creo que siempre se sobreestima la capacidad de la caída de los regímenes. Cuando hay algún bombardeo, siempre hay, alguien que sale a las ventanas con un cartel, con una bandera, se graba con el móvil y da la sensación de que hay una enorme efervescencia social, pero no". "Las bases del régimen son muchísimo más sólidas. Una serie de bombardeos que además están solamente destruyendo, de momento, de forma más o menos quirúrgica, instalaciones militares y nucleares, eso no tiene capacidad por sí mismo de hacer caer al régimen", prosigue. El objetivo último será forzar a Irán a firmar un papel en el que se compromete a no desarrollar una bomba atómica. Pérez Triana sí reconoce, no obstante, que la ofensiva no se está centrando únicamente en esos objetivos militares y nucleares: "Lo que sí da la impresión es que una vez que las Fuerzas de Defensa israelíes han alcanzado la supremacía  sobre los cielos, ahora se están dando cuenta de que es el momento para aprovechar. Es una ventana de oportunidad para destruir otras muchas cosas. Ya hemos visto ataques a la aviación, hemos visto a refinerías, instalaciones... Pero el objetivo último, en todo caso, será forzar a Irán a firmar un papel en el que se compromete a no desarrollar una bomba atómica". Sin embargo, la ofensiva de Israel puede tener otra consecuencia: que el régimen de los Ayatolás llegue a la conclusión de que contar con un arma nuclear como elemento disuasorio sea más necesario que nunca para garantizar su estabilidad: "En el caso de Irán, donde hemos visto un ataque masivo de Israel, la lección que habrán sacado los líderes de Irán es 'o bien nos sentamos en una mesa y libramos a Israel de la amenaza de holocausto nuclear, o sentimos que esto nos da aún más argumentos para tener un escudo nuclear'". Leer tambiénIsrael-Irán: testimonios cruzados, entre miedo e incomprensión El experto explica además que otros gobiernos autoritarios también pueden tomar nota: "Hemos visto la caída de Bashar al-Ásad, hemos visto la caída de Muhammad Gadafi. Esto, más que una advertencia para democracias y países en general, suele ser para los dictadores. Es decir, 'necesito un recurso que me permita enrocarme y que nadie me pueda atacar'". "Esa creo que es la lección que ha sacado Kim Jong-un en Corea del Norte. La diferencia entre Kim Jong-un y Gadafi, Sadam Huseín y Bashar al-Ásad es que él sí tenía armamento nuclear. Entonces veremos por ahí a gobiernos autoritarios, veremos por ahí a dictaduras, veremos ahí a gobiernos atroces, que ven que el último recurso que dicta diferencia de sufrir una intervención militar extranjera y simplemente entrar en escaramuzas en la frontera es tener el arma nuclear", concluye. 

Hace un año Israel se encontraba ante una situación complicada: atrapado en Gaza, rodeado por enemigos apoyados por Irán y presionado por Estados Unidos para acabar con la guerra en la franja. Hoy ha transformado el panorama de Oriente Medio. Ha tomado la iniciativa con audaces operaciones de inteligencia y campañas militares que han debilitado a Hamás y, especialmente, a Hezbolá, la principal fuerza iraní en la región. Además, ha provocado el colapso del régimen de Bashar al-Asad en Siria, reemplazado por un Gobierno más afín a sus intereses. Ahora lleva la guerra directamente a Irán atacando no solo su programa nuclear, sino buscando desestabilizar el régimen vigente desde 1979. Benjamin Netanyahu ha desafiado con esto a Donald Trump, que estaba en estos momentos tratando de llegar a un acuerdo nuclear con Irán. Durante los últimos meses ha defendido una resolución pacífica al conflicto, pero ahora apoya los ataques israelíes y ha ordenado que sus fuerzas armadas contribuyan de forma directa a la defensa de Israel frente a los contraataques iraníes. Este contraataque con misiles ha tenido hasta el momento un impacto limitado. El gobierno de Netanyahu habla de una victoria segura que podría transformar Oriente Medio. Ha llegado incluso a ofrecer una alianza con un Irán liberado tras el hipotético derrocamiento de la república islámica. La postura de Israel coincide con un Estados Unidos más centrado en problemas internos y otras partes del mundo como Ucrania o China. Trump, que inicialmente buscó un alto el fuego en Gaza y llegó a proponer ideas un tanto fantasiosas como convertir Gaza en un destino turístico, ha perdido interés en Oriente Medio. Eso ha dejado vía libre Netanyahu para hacer y deshacer a su antojo. Pero no será tan fácil. Los israelíes deben primero consolidar su ventaja y luego eliminar por completo la amenaza iraní, que lleva décadas financiando milicias como Hezbolá, Hamás y los hutíes con el objetivo explícito de destruir al Estado de Israel. El principal objetivo de Netanyahu es en estos momentos destruir el programa nuclear iraní. Ha ordenado ataque a instalaciones importantes como la de Natanz y la de Fordow, aunque estas, especialmente la de Fordow, son difíciles de destruir ya que se encuentra enterrada en profundidad. La aviación israelí ha debilitado las defensas aéreas iraníes, pero aún no ha asestado el golpe decisivo al programa nuclear. Si Irán logra preservarlo, podría acelerar su desarrollo de armas atómicas, manteniendo así intacta su influencia regional. Si Netanyahu lo consiguese abriría un escenario completamente distinto en Oriente Medio. A pesar de los éxitos iniciales, Israel tiene una serie de problemas internos que han de tenerse en cuenta. Tras 20 meses de guerra en Gaza, la población está cansada y reina la incertidumbre. Aunque existe un amplio apoyo para castigar a Irán, la prolongada guerra en Gaza, que no muestra un final claro, ha generado divisiones y que surja un amplio movimiento que reclama la paz. Además, la devastación en Gaza ha erosionado el apoyo internacional, lo que complica las relaciones con sus aliados occidentales y frenan posibles acuerdos como la normalización de relaciones con Arabia Saudita. Irán, aunque debilitado, sigue siendo un adversario formidable por su tamaño, población y la determinación de sus líderes. Netanyahu y Trump esperan que los ataques fuercen a Irán a negociar un acuerdo nuclear favorable, pero el régimen podría resistir, especialmente si protege bien las principales instalaciones del programa nuclear. Se abre por lo tanto una campaña larga y costosa sin una salida clara, que podría agotar sus recursos y apoyo si no define una estrategia para concluir el conflicto antes de que se enquiste.

During the early morning hours of June 13, 2025, Israel conducted a preemptive strike against Iran's nuclear facilities, ballistic missile installations, and Iran's military and nuclear science leadership. Israel initiated this action based on intelligence it had acquired which revealed Iran is very close to closing the loop for obtaining a nuclear weapon. During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Pastor Rich Jones joins Dr. Matthew Dodd in studio to provide the latest updates on Israel's strike against Iran along with the ramifications for the Middle East and beyond.

PREVIEW: Key Details of the Rocket Attacks When: Two rockets were fired from Syria into Israel on June 3, 2025, marking the first such attack since the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime in December 2024 The Times of IsraelFDD. Target: The rockets were fired at the Golan Heights, landing in open areas near the community of Ramat Magshimim with no injuries reported Rockets fired from Syria for first time in a year; Israel holds Sharaa responsible | The Times of Israel. Two Terror Groups Responsible Ahmad Sharawi's FDD analysis identifies two distinct groups that claimed responsibility: 1. Mohammed Deif Brigades This group was reportedly founded on May 30, 2025, according to its Telegram channel and is named after the slain Hamas military chief Mohammad Deif, who was killed in July 2024 Syria Archives. The group first surfaced on social media just a few days before the attack Israel says rockets fired from Syria for the first time since Bashar Assad's fall - The Washington Post, with Syrian researcher Ahmed Aba Zeid noting "Until now, it's just a Telegram channel. It's not known if it is a real group" Israel says rockets fired from Syria for the first time since Bashar Assad's fall - The Washington Post. 2. Islamic Resistance Front in Syria - Awli al-Bas This is a militant faction that claims affiliation with Iran's so-called Axis of Resistance and has claimed multiple attacks against Israeli forces operating inside Syrian territory since December 2024 Syria Archives. Its logo mimics the emblem of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC)—a raised arm holding an AK-47—indicating alignment with Iran-linked "resistance" groups From Al-Qaeda Commander to Syrian President: Ahmad Al-Sharaa's Ascent. Israeli Response and Syrian Accountability Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared that Syria's interim president Ahmad al-Sharaa was "directly responsible for every threat and [rocket] fire toward the State of Israel" Rockets fired from Syria for first time in a year; Israel holds Sharaa responsible | The Times of Israel. Israel responded with artillery fire on the source of the rockets and carried out a series of airstrikes throughout southern Syria targeting weapons belonging to the regime Rockets fired from Syria for first time in a year; Israel holds Sharaa responsible | The Times of Israel. Analysis from Ahmad Sharawi Sharawi noted this represents "another testament to Ahmad al-Sharaa's failure to fully control all armed groups and ensure that Syrian territory will not be used as a launching point for attacks against Israel" Sharaa ‘Responsible for Every Threat': Terrorists in Syria Launch Rockets Into Israel. He emphasized that while Sharaa may not yet have full control over all armed actors, Washington should make clear that further cooperation on sanctions relief hinges on Sharaa quietly and fully cooperating with Israel to neutralize any Palestinian factions capable of launching attacks from Syrian soil Rocket Attacks on Israel Underscore Continuing Threat from Syria. The incident highlights ongoing security challenges in post-Assad Syria and the difficulty the new Syrian leadership faces in controlling various militant groups operating within its territory.

For well over a decade, civil war blighted the lives of Syrians, as rebel forces battled against former President Bashar al-Assad and his brutal regime. More than 600,000 people were killed and 12 million others were forced from their homes during this time. In December last year, everything changed when Assad's dictatorship was abruptly overthrown by his opponents. We hear from a range of people living and working in Syria as they describe how life was for them under the old regime, and how they have been affected by the country's new leadership. They also discuss how the lifting of international sanctions has started to improve their ailing economy. Hoteliers describe how their hotels are now fully booked, and they are able to maintain and upgrade their buildings again. And three artists exchange views on organising performances now and their hopes for the future. Three students describe how having freedom of speech has transformed university life. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from BBC OS Conversations, bringing together people from around the world to discuss how major news stories are affecting their lives

In the wake of the Assad regime's fall in Syria, thousands of Alawites, a minority Shia sect historically linked to the former regime, have fled to Lebanon. They are seeking refuge from discrimination and sectarian violence that has left over 1,000 civilians dead, including women and children. The late Hafez al-Assad, Bashar's father, became the most powerful Alawite when he seized control of Syria in a coup in 1970. Under the rule of Hafez al-Assad and then his son Bashar - the ruling Assad's recruited heavily from the Alawite community placing them in top posts in state, security and intelligence branches. Syria's new President Ahmed al-Sharaa, promised to protect Syria's minorities, but has struggled to contain a wave of violence directed towards the Alawite community. Emily Wither travels to the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli to meet with Syrian Alawite refugees and a new youth movement.

Three years ago, Russian troops and tanks invaded Ukraine and started the largest land war in Europe since World War II. And like the Second World War, the war in Ukraine has drawn in money, weapons, and even troops from around the world, from the United States to North Korea. The invasion served as a wake-up call to many in the West about the threats posed by Vladimir Putin's revanchist Russia, even while it drained the Kremlin's war chest and depleted its military—including a march on Moscow by disgruntled mercenary forces. John Sullivan served as the U.S. ambassador to Russia from February 2020 to September 2022, and in his book Midnight in Moscow, he related the behind-the-scenes activity in Moscow and the West in the lead-up to the war. It is a war that many have come to see—and that Putin has declared it to be—a struggle against the West itself, not just Ukraine. Has Russia been weakened by the collapse of its Syrian ally Bashar al-Assad? How extensive is Russian involvement in attacks on Western European infrastructure?

Tim Franks speaks to a British-Syrian Alawite who came under attack, along with her family, during the sectarian violence on Syria's coast in March.The Alawite sect is an offshoot of Shia Islam and its followers make up around 10 per cent of Syria's population, which is majority Sunni.The recent violence came after fighters loyal to the country's overthrown former president, Bashar al-Assad, who is an Alawite himself, led deadly raids on the new government's security forces.Those attacks resurrected deep-seated anger over Assad's repressive dictatorship, with Alawite civilians seen by some as complicit in the crimes of his regime - and as part of the insurgency that followed his fall.The new Sunni Islamist-led government had called for support from various military units and militia groups to respond to the attacks on its security forces – which then escalated into a wave of sectarian anger aimed at Alawite civilians.Human rights groups estimate that around 900 civilians, mainly Alawites, were killed by pro-government forces across Syria's coastal region in early March.The Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world, from all over the world.

During the last year of Bashar al-Assad's rule of Syria, Reporters Without Borders ranked the country second to last in the World Press Freedom Index. The country was incredibly dangerous for journalists who had to manage strict government censorship. But in December 2024, Assad's rule was toppled by a swift rebel offensive that took the capital city Damascus within a few days. The country then experienced a level of press freedom it hadn't seen for decades. Dalia Haidar of BBC Arabic worked as a journalist in Syria whilst Assad was in power, she joins us to describe what it was like and what the hopes are for the future. Plus, a tour of Chiclayo, the Peruvian city Pope Leo XIV used to call home, with José Carlos Cueto from BBC Mundo; and how a Ferrari flag became a symbol of protest, with Slobodan Maričić from BBC Serbian.

In 2019, Netflix released a six-episode miniseries starring the English comedian and actor Sacha Baron Cohen. Cohen played an Israeli spy, Eli Cohen. The latter Cohen was a Jewish immigrant from Egypt who, once in Israel, was recruited and trained by the Mossad. He then assumed the identity of Kamel Amin Thaabet, a wealthy Arab businessman who, having eventually moved to Damascus, became a backer and confidant of key officials in the Baath party. From his home in Syria, Cohen as Thaabet dispatched vast quantities of military and political intelligence to the Israelis throughout the early 1960s. Viewers of the Netflix show, The Spy, see all of this dramatized, as they also see Cohen's eventual capture, torture, and hanging. The Netflix series, and the story it brings to a new generation of viewers, is true.   Eli Cohen is celebrated as one of Israel's great intelligence agents, one of its great mistaravim, or those who assume the identity of Arabs to carry out their missions. There are streets and institutions and many children and even, in the Golan, a town in Israel named after Eli Cohen. For 60 years the Israeli government has tried to persuade, bribe, cajole, and if necessary steal the Syrian government's Eli Cohen file. During the rule of Hafez and Bashar al-Assad, they could not get them. With the fall of the Assad regime, and with a new regime in Damascus looking to curry favor with the United States and the West, earlier this week the Syrians handed over some 2,500 documents from Syria's Eli Cohen file.   This week, Yossi Melman—a Haaretz reporter, journalist, and author of some eight English-language books on Israeli intelligence—joins Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver to talk about Eli Cohen, what Israel has reclaimed, and why this story remains so important some six decades on.

Marcel Dirsus is fascinated by the treadmill of tyranny: how dictators gain power, how they stay there and how they fall. This is his blueprint for bringing an end to authoritarianism.With democracies seemingly faltering worldwide, political scientist and writer Marcel Dirsus is putting tyrants under the microscope to better understand how they rise and how they fall.Years ago, Marcel took a break from his university studies and travelled to central Africa, where he took a job in a brewery.One day, while walking to work, he heard shots fired and an explosion in the distance as the military was launching a coup.The experience terrified him, and drew him into a study of tyrants — the dictators and despots who make life miserable for so many people on the planet.While they project an image of strength, guarded on all sides, and surrounded by people who do their bidding, Marcel says they live in fear.For the road to power is often flanked by the road to revolution.These men know a mass uprising, an assassination, a mutiny or a foreign invasion could end their reign at any moment, and who, or what will take their place?In investigating the long history of tyrannical leaders, however, Marcel has found a renewed optimism for Western Democracy.How Tyrants Fall: And How Nations Survive is published by Hachette Australia.Marcel is appearing at the Sydney Writers' Festival on Friday 23 May.This episode of Conversations explores Putin, Xi Jinping, China, CCP, Russia, Trump, global politics, dictatorships, democracy, voting rights, election results, the new world order, Stalin, Hitler, famous leaders, Churchill, politics, books, writing, history, war, civil war, Africa, USSR, Elon Musk, Gaddafi, golden gun, torture, Libya, Syria, control, Machiavelli, monarchs, Al-Ghazali, East Germany, Congo, academia, what to study at university, coup, the elite, power systems, Cold War, Bashar al-Assad, Ukraine, surveillance, Roman Empire.

La semana pasada Donald Trump realizó la primera gira internacional de su segundo mandato. Visitó Arabia Saudí, Qatar y los Emiratos Árabes Unidos. Este viaje, centrado en acuerdos comerciales y asuntos geopolíticos de primer nivel como la cuestión de Siria, supone un punto de inflexión en tanto que Trump se mostró dispuesto a dialogar. Algo llamativo ya que, al menos en este ámbito, su postura es realista y libre de los maximalismos de su primer trimestre en el cargo. De forma un tanto sorprendente dejó a Israel en un segundo plano. Lo que no fue sorprendente en absoluto fue su silencio por el respeto a los derechos humanos en aquella región, pero eso ya estaba previsto y es coherente con lo que ya hizo en su primer mandato. El periplo comenzó en Riad, donde Trump fue recibido por el príncipe heredero Mohammed bin Salman. Arabia Saudí comprometió 600.000 millones de dólares en inversiones en EEUU enfocadas en defensa, tecnología y energía. Un foro de inversión reunió a líderes empresariales como Larry Fink de BlackRock y Jane Fraser de Citigroup, subrayando la importancia que el presidente dio al apartado económico de la gira. En Riad se reunió con el presidente interino sirio, Ahmed al-Sharaa, en un encuentro histórico. Anunció el levantamiento de sanciones a Siria para impulsar su estabilización tras la caída de Bashar al-Assad. Esta decisión, respaldada por Arabia Saudí y Qatar, fue elogiada por las cancillerías europeas, pero criticada por Israel, que considera a al-Sharaa un exyihadista. En Doha Trump fue agasajado por el emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani. Qatar firmó acuerdos por 243.000 millones de dólares que incluyen la adquisición de más de 200 aviones Boeing. Desde la base aérea Al Udeid, la mayor instalación militar estadounidense en Oriente Medio, Trump reiteró su prioridad de “terminar conflictos, no iniciarlos”, aunque advirtió que no dudaría en usar el poder militar si fuera necesario. Propuso una “zona de libertad” en Gaza, un concepto vago que ha generado infinidad de especulaciones, pero evitó hablar de la guerra aún en curso en la franja. La gira culminó en Abu Dabi, donde el Gobierno de los Emiratos anunció una inversión de 440.000 millones de dólares en el sector energético estadounidense a lo largo de la próxima década. Trump visitó la Gran Mezquita y la Casa de la Familia Abrahámica tratando de proyectar una imagen de cooperación cultural. Poco antes, en su discurso en Riad, condenó el intervencionismo estadounidense del pasado, y eso fue bien recibido entre los líderes políticos del golfo Pérsico, pero alarmó a defensores de los derechos humanos. Un aspecto notable fue la exclusión de Israel del itinerario, lo que revela que hay tensiones latentes con su primer ministro, Benjamin Netanyahu. Trump ignoró las objeciones israelíes para levantar las sanciones a Siria y negociar con Hamás con el objetivo de liberar al rehén estadounidense Edan Alexander. Todo de forma directa y dejando a un lado a los israelíes. Además, avanzó que quiere reiniciar las conversaciones nucleares con Irán mediadas por Omán, lo que ha provocado nuevas fricciones con Israel, que teme un acuerdo favorable a Teherán. La gira, salteada por una serie de aciertos, supone el regreso al pragmatismo que caracterizó a su primer mandato, más centrado en la estabilidad económica que en decisiones rupturistas y problemáticas como la guerra comercial contra todo el mundo.

Read Djene's piece in Compact Magazine here: https://www.compactmag.com/.../neoliberalism-with.../...   For many Syrians, the events of December 2024 had a surreal quality. After nearly a decade and a half of brutal civil war, it had seemed that the regime of Bashar al-Assad had fended off any serious challenges to its authority. Assad and his supporters may not have been able to deliver a killing blow to the various opposition forces in the country, but they had managed to confine them to the country's periphery. That all changed in late November, when Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a Sunni Islamist group led by former al-Qaeda militant, Ahmad al-Sharaa, launched a lightning offensive from its stronghold on the Turkish-Syrian border, which brought an end to more than half a century of Assad family rule within a matter of weeks.   Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.
