Podcasts about Benghazi

In our 30th episode of This F*cking Guy, Erin and Alyssa dive deep into the past of the unqualified a** kisser, Kash Patel. From lying about being the lead prosecutor on the Benghazi case, to being a top contender for biggest Trump simp, to his totally normal, not suspicious, relationship with his twenty-something girlfriend, to his unbearable performative masculinity as FBI Director, this may be one of our corniest try-hard guys yet!View a complete list of sources hereFor a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Mohanad Elshieky joins Funny You Should Mention with stories that make Benghazi feel less like a political Rorschach test and more like the small town where he learned comedy by roasting his siblings and dodging unlicensed militias. He walks us through the dictatorship-era silence around politics, the sudden rise of ISIS-adjacent checkpoints, and the knife-wielding "helper" who hijacked his car only to request a future hangout. We also dig into the Greyhound incident that vaulted him into national headlines, why clapter makes his skin crawl, and how Portland's well-meaning curiosity can feel like its own border crossing.

In Episode 242 of History of the Second World War, we dive into Operation Compass, Britain's first major offensive in North Africa in late 1940 — specifically focusing on the critical assault on Bardia, an Italian stronghold along the coast with formidable defenses. After initial successes capturing Sidi Barrani and forcing a chaotic Italian retreat, British forces now face the challenge of overcoming heavily fortified positions to continue their advance westward toward Tobruk and Benghazi. This episode explores how engineers, tanks like the Matilda, and coordinated infantry maneuvers broke through enemy lines — even as British planners gambled on outnumbered troops and unconventional tactics. You'll also get a glimpse into the grim conditions inside Italian prisoner camps like Tobruk, where tens of thousands were crammed under brutal circumstances — setting the stage for what's to come in the next episode: the final push to Beda Fomm.

Good Sunday to you,A bit of admin before we come to today's thought piece.First, in case you missed it, here is this week's commentary, mostly ranting about the budget, the UK's inept leadership and what actions you, as an investor, should take:And this week I also appeared on comedian Geoff Norcott's podcast, What Most People Think. Here are the links to the show on Apple and Spotify, if of interest.But for your thought piece today, we have another great little World War Two gold story which didn't make the cut. The farcical journey of Albanian and Italian gold (NB: a tonne of gold is about a medium-sized suitcase full).As the Nazis took both Austria and Czechoslovakia with ease, Italian Prime Minister Benito Mussolini grew anxious to flex his own muscles.Albania would be his target. Geographically, culturally and historically, it made sense: Albania had been part of the Roman Empire even before northern Italy.In April 1939, Italy invaded with a force that contained 400 planes, 300 small tanks, 12 warships, and 22,000 men. But some untrained Albanian locals with the help of a few soldiers managed to drive them back into the sea. Such was 20th century Italian warfare.The Italians made it on the second attempt, however, and the capital, Tirana, fell.The Albanian King Zog gave an impassioned speech on the radio, urging resistance, but nobody heard it because Albania at the time had fewer than 2,000 radios, and the Italians soon managed to jam the airwaves anyway. Shortly after giving the speech, like the true patriot he was, he fled the country, taking enough gold with him to lead a long life of luxury in exile, eventually ending up in Egypt as a guest of King Farouk, to whom he had to pay $20 million for refuge.Albania's founders believed in gold, and their currency, the lek, was based on it. Inflation, as a result, had been nonexistent. The central bank was established in the summer of 1925, and it had worked hard to build up its gold holdings. At home, it had encouraged citizens to swap their jewellery for paper money. That private gold was then added to the nation's gold holdings. Whenever possible, the country increased its gold holdings in London.But by the time of the invasion in 1939, most of Albania's 2.3 tonnes was in Italy anyway, where it had been sent for safekeeping. The Italians managed to confiscate quite a bit more in coins and jewellery from citizens.We fast forward four years.The Italian dilemma: give their gold to the Nazis or the Allies? In 1943, Allied forces moved north from Africa into Sicily and then Italy: the invasion of the soft underbelly of Europe had begun.Hectic days followed the ousting of Mussolini in July. The Italian Fascists were still nominally in charge. They declared Rome an open city in the hope of avoiding Allied air attacks. But by September 1943, the Nazis had control of the capital and central Italy, and they wanted Italy's gold moved to Berlin, while they still had control of the area.They began confiscating the gold of Italian citizens in Rome, especially Italian Jews. The amounts demanded were unrealistic, but Roman Jews reached into their family treasures, their synagogues and institutions to turn in what they had. The Pope, Pius XII, heard about the demands and authorised Catholic churches to lend Jews gold so they could reach the quota.But the big prize was in the Italian Central Bank, and several Nazi organisations had their eyes on it: Himmler's SS, Göring's Four Year Plan, von Ribbentrop's Foreign Office, and Funk's Reichsbank. Even the Bank of International Settlements (BIS), which was worried about its investments in Italy, started making demands that Italy send it gold. Initially, the governor of the Italian bank, Vincenzo Azzolini, made out that he was offended by the idea, but he soon realised the BIS was a better option than Berlin, whichever Nazi department received it.The Italians did not know what to do. On the one hand, they did not want the Nazis to have their gold, but nor did they want the invading Allies to have it either. They thought of sending it to Sardinia, they thought of sending it to the Swiss border. They sent small amounts of gold to branch offices around Italy, but the Bologna gold went missing, as did much of the Milan gold - now supposedly in Turin, but actually hidden in a well. They even sent some to colonial outposts in Benghazi, Rhodes and Addis Ababa.The Albanian gold Italy had stolen was still sitting in the Italian bank's vault, so, under pressure from the Nazis, they sent that up to the Reichsbank in Berlin, while they tried to come up with a solution.The following day, Niccolò Introna, the Italian bank's deputy general manager, had his plan: to build a false wall in the bank's underground vaults. He would then backdate documents to show the gold had been moved to Potenza, a town in the Italian south that was about to fall into Allied hands, but hide the gold behind the wall.Bank governor Azzolini approved the plan, but then ruled that only half the gold should be hidden. The next day the wall was built. The day after that, the official order to ship the gold to Berlin came in from the German ambassador. If the bank did not agree, the Germans would simply seize it. At this point, Azzolini learned that the Germans had seized government records, from which they would know the size and location of the country's gold. Azzolini lost his nerve and had the wall torn down.The next day, the German military unit arrived at the bank with orders to move the gold north by air. Azzolini stalled them, saying it would be safer by train. The Germans sent 5 tonnes by air, the rest - 119 tonnes - was sent by train to Milan. From there, it was shipped to Fortezza, Bolzano, close to the border with Germany and under their control, where it stayed for several months. The now-ousted Mussolini even signed his approval that it be sent there.The following spring, Azzolini, who above all wanted to stop the gold going to Berlin, struck a deal with Swiss and German representatives that would see 26 tonnes sent to Switzerland, some to the BIS and some to the Swiss National Bank.Göring, however, insisted he needed money and suggested giving Italy Reichsmarks for its gold. The deal was signed without the Bank of Italy knowing about it. 50 tonnes left Fortezza, which included 8 tonnes Italy had stolen from Yugoslavia earlier in the war in "restitution" (that's another story). The delivery arrived in Berlin a tonne light. As almost always by this point in the war, someone had their hands in the till.The process of shipping the next batch of Italian gold - some 22 tonnes - went on for months, as some (but not all) Italian officials tried to stall. But eventually, that too was dispatched. That too arrived in Berlin a tonne light.When American forces eventually liberated Fortezza, they found 25 tonnes. It was handed over to the Bank of Italy.What a mess.Stories like this fill the pages of The Secret History of Gold (although this one didn't actually make the cut).The Secret History of Gold is available at Amazon, Waterstones and all good bookshops. I hear the audiobook, read by me, is excellent. And it would make a wonderful Christmas present! This is a public episode.

This episode pulls together the long wars and the quiet missions that followed. It starts in Anbar and along the Syrian border, with Lioness teams at checkpoints, battalions fighting through al Qaim and Ramadi, and tribes turning against Al Qaeda. From there it tracks how Iraq shifted from brutal street fighting to fragile calm, only to see ISIS rise out of the same ground a few years later. The story widens to Afghanistan's hidden record in the Afghanistan Papers, then follows Marines into humanitarian work in Liberia, Haiti, the Indian Ocean, the Philippines, and Nepal, where ships become lifelines instead of launchpads. Libya, Benghazi, and the ISIS war show how quickly combat can return. The chapter closes on the future of the Corps, from Force Design debates to the simple ideas that have outlasted every reorganization.

Welcome back to The Movie Draft House & Happy Thanksgiving! We're wrapping up November 2025 this week with our year-long theme of "one degree of separation" where each new film we review has to have some connection to the previous weeks' film. This week we reviewed the Michael Bay directed action flick "13 Hours: The Secret Soldier of Benghazi" starring John Krasinski.

La Libye est toujours divisée entre un Gouvernement d'unité nationale (GUN), installé à Tripoli, et un Gouvernement de stabilité nationale (GSL), basé à Benghazi. Pour accélérer la reconstruction libyenne, chacune des entités a créé une zone économique spéciale sur la côte méditerranéenne : celle de Misrata à l'ouest et celle de Syrte à l'est. Les représentants de ces zones franches se sont retrouvés dans la même enceinte à Paris, invités par la France à faire la promotion de la Libye auprès des entreprises françaises. C'est une première. L'événement Ambition Africa, à Paris, est sponsorisé par la « Misurata Free Zone » (zone franche de Misrata), une émanation du Gouvernement d'unité nationale (GUN) de Tripoli, en Libye. Le directeur général de cette zone franche de l'ouest libyen, Ayman Hmeida Al-Derwish, en fait la promotion auprès des investisseurs français : « Il s'agit d'une zone de 750 hectares comprenant un port et la zone d'investissement, précise-t-il. C'est l'un des plus grands ports libyens. Il reçoit près de 65% des marchandises entrant en Libye. Récemment, la zone franche de Misrata s'est tournée vers les services pétrochimiques, dans le port. » Les investisseurs y bénéficient d'une exonération totale des droits de douane et des taxes pendant la durée de leur investissement, ainsi que de la pleine propriété de l'entreprise au sein de la zone franche. L'ouest mise sur le port de Misrata, l'est sur l'aéroport de Syrte L'autorité rivale, le Gouvernement de stabilité nationale (GSL) de l'est libyen, n'est pas en reste. Le directeur de son Agence nationale de développement, Mahmud Elforjan, fait la promotion, lui, de la zone franche autour du nouvel aéroport de Syrte : « L'aéroport de Syrte est un aéroport vital au centre de la Libye, plaide-t-il. Il accueille plus de trois millions de voyageurs par an et il est situé à un point stratégique reliant l'est et l'ouest de la Libye et reliant la mer Méditerranée au cœur de l'Afrique. Les entreprises françaises sont invitées à investir et à travailler avec nous dans les domaines de la reconstruction, des infrastructures, de l'agriculture, de la logistique et du commerce, dans le cadre des nombreux projets que nous lancerons prochainement. » « Les entreprises françaises ne sont pas visibles en Libye » Pour l'heure, les investisseurs français sont largement doublés par leurs concurrents en Libye. « Tous nos concurrents y sont : les Italiens, les Allemands, les Espagnols, les Américains, les Turcs, les Égyptiens, les Chinois, etc. Les entreprises françaises ne sont pas présentes ou pas visibles en Libye, déplore Philippe Garcia, le directeur Afrique du Nord de Business France, l'agence publique chargée d'accompagner les entreprises françaises à l'étranger. Partant de ce constat, notre rôle, depuis 2023 – et on l'accentue cette année et en 2026 –, c'est de voir à quel point toutes les opportunités qu'on nous présente, à l'est comme à l'ouest, sont sérieuses, et elles le sont. Quels sont les délais de réalisation ? Quels sont les financements mis à disposition ​​​​​​​? Notre boulot, c'est aussi de dérisquer l'activité des entreprises françaises. » La division de la Libye en deux entités politiques n'est pas ou plus un problème ni pour l'ambassadeur de France, ni pour Business France, qui a signé un protocole d'accord avec les deux zones franches libyennes. L'agence française organisera également, au premier semestre 2026, un tour de France pour les importateurs libyens de biens de consommation, afin de leur faire découvrir les produits français.

Tara dives into a jaw-dropping development: Ahmed Al Sharah, a former Al Qaeda leader responsible for the deaths of hundreds of U.S. soldiers, is now being hosted at the White House as the Syrian leader.

www.commsolutionsmn.com- We've been doing this for a long time. I know that the words "conspiracy theory" has been getting thrown around a lot... but some of them are actual conspiracies. If the government is capable of using false pretenses to get us into war (i.e. Gulf of Tonkin), then what won't they do? We see that the Deep State has done all sorts of things that we are only finding out about. We still don't know anything about what happened in Butler, PA. People want to downplay the workings of the Deep State in our government, but look at how all of these players that were in The Center for the American Experiment got into George W Bush's administration and had a response ready to go when 9/11 happened. Our State Department moved into the coup business and Obama's administration helped to orchestrate overthrows in Ukraine, the Arab Spring, Benghazi... it needs to change. The government has also put their influence onto business and education. The college loan business has manipulated the system to make college available to almost everyone... then taught them a bunch of useless information, so long as they can get their hands on all of this money. Then they got in with manufacturing, meat production, and all sorts of other businesses, sending American companies overseas for cheap labor or modifying their output to meet government demand, raking in the government subsidies. They have got involved in the medical industry, deincentivising innovation, and manipulating health insurance. This has caused certain sicknesses to be treated instead of cured and brought on a mentality of whether to treat patients or manage their decline. We have to get government completely out of everything.

If you make a purchase, I may receive a commission at no extra cost to you. Alarms are sounding from someone who's been in the room where it happens. We take a hard, clear look at former CIA targeting officer Sarah Adams' recent warnings—from the so‑called “invisible bomb” designed to slip past today's screening to legal immigration pathways that sophisticated networks may exploit—and translate them into practical steps for everyday listeners who want to be ready without living scared.We start by setting the stakes: Adams' track record spans Al‑Qaeda targeting, on‑the‑ground experience during Benghazi, and later advisory roles that honed her eye for systemic gaps. From there, we unpack the core risks she's raising now: potential threats to aviation and crowded public venues, vetting and information‑sharing failures, and the uncomfortable reality that bureaucracy moves slower than adversaries. Rather than catastrophize, we use these insights to build a calm, capable posture: situational awareness grounded in the OODA loop, small but reliable go‑bags and get‑home bags, and an information diet that favors verified alerts over viral fear.You'll hear how to pressure‑test your routine in airports, malls, concerts, and stadiums; what to include in a minimalist kit that serves for terror threats and natural disasters alike; and why local alert systems, police feeds, and primary sources can out‑perform national noise when minutes matter. We also make the case for community readiness—Stop the Bleed training, first aid basics, neighbor networks—and for respectful civic pressure to improve visa screening, detection technology, and intel‑sharing between federal and local agencies. The throughline is simple: vigilance is not paranoia, and preparedness is a form of care for the people you love.If this deep dive helps you think clearer and act smarter, subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a quick review to help others find it.

On the brighter side, stay to hear about a hamster riding a motorcycle, Owen Cooper and the return of earnest, Jane Eyre, Benghazi, and Clara's time in The Pitt. Hosted on Acast.

Mike Johnson is racing to shut the business of the House down to avoid a vote on releasing the Epstein files. Trump's own criminal lawyer, who's moonlighting as deputy attorney general, will be minding the matter of Ghislaine Maxwell. And Texas is looking to squeeze out some more House seats to try to protect Trump from having to be held accountable on Epstein. Has any other politician ever acted so guilty? But in this moment, the Dems are finally bringing a gun to a gunfight. And for the midterms, they need to commit to Benghazi-style hearings on the contents of the files—and the Republican cover-up. Plus, securing the border without a terror campaign, and recruiting candidates to fill out a bigger Democratic tent.

When Mark "Oz" Geist returned from the 2012 Benghazi attack with 26 shrapnel wounds, the battle was far from over. Dr. Phil speaks with Mark and his wife Krystal to unpack the physical and emotional toll of surviving what should've killed him—and the silence that followed. From the rooftop firefight that killed three of his teammates to the years of being told not to speak, the Geists share how they turned isolation into action, founding the "Shadow Warriors Project" and “Her Warrior Heart,” the only nonprofits serving private military contractors and their spouses. This episode exposes the forgotten side of military service: the spouses on suicide watch, the PTSD that doesn't qualify for care, and the dogs that do what the system won't—heal trauma.

A notable marksman, Fettes once made a 900-yard sniper shot on an enemy in Somalia, and would often bring a high-end ice cream machine on deployments to make ice cream for his teammates and local children. After leaving the military in 2016, Fettes didn't take the easy road. Like many veterans, the transition to civilian life came with its own set of battles. But in true warrior fashion, he forged a new path—launching 'Be Free Craft Ice Cream' in 2022, a small-batch, veteran-owned ice cream brand based in Virginia Beach. Each flavor is a tribute to his military past, blending boldness and creativity like only a seasoned operator could. He recently provided private security for Shawn Ryan during a controversial trip to Romania—and he's just getting started.
