Newt talks with James M. Scott about the tragic 1983 Beirut barracks bombing, which resulted in the deaths of 241 U.S. Marines, 58 French soldiers, and six civilians. This event marked the deadliest single-day loss for the U.S. Marine Corps since World War II and continues to impact United States foreign policy. James M. Scott is a Pulitzer Prize finalist and co-author with Jack Carr, of the new book "TARGETED: BERUIT – The 1983 Marine Barracks Bombing and the Untold True Origin Story of the War on Terror," which provides an in-depth account of the attack based on survivor interviews, military records, and personal documents. Their conversation covers the historical context of U.S. involvement in Lebanon, the complexities of the region's political landscape, and the strategic missteps that led to the bombing. Additionally, Scott shares insights into his career as a military historian and his experiences leading battlefield tours.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Israel announced its decision to invade Lebanon on September 30—and so far, it does not seem to be going well. Israeli media has been largely silent on the state of ground operations, but Hezbollah has claimed a number of significant victories that suggest Israel has been unable to find its footing. Despite the assassination of General Secretary Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah and the Lebanese resistance appear to be unbowed. After all, this is an organization that was forged in the successful struggle to expel Israeli soldiers during the occupation from 1982-2000, and once again defeated Israel in 2006. Hezbollah's ability to deter Israeli advances on the ground are significant, but this has not stopped Israel's daily bombing of Lebanon, particularly in the Dahiye suburb south of Beirut. Dahiye and Lebanon's south are now in the spotlight of international media—which often reduce these places, the communities within them, and their histories of resistance to one-dimensional caricatures. Yet the people of these communities and Lebanon at large deserve far better, particularly now as they face the same genocidal war tactics Israel has unleashed in Gaza over the past year. Roqayah Chamseddine, an independent journalist based in Beirut and co-host of the Delete Your Account podcast, joins The Real News with updates from the ground and a portrait of the proud people of Dahiye and Lebanon's south informed by her own roots and years of experience in these communities.Audio Post-Production: Alina NehlichHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast

A few months back, Hezbollah realized that Israel was tracking its cellphones, so they ordered pagers from Taiwan to avoid surveillance. Unfortunately for many Hezbollah terrorists, Israel intercepted the shipments of pagers, and packed the pagers with timed explosives. Well, they finally exploded yesterday, leading to hospitals across Beruit being flooded with fingerless and ball-less Hezbollah terrorists. Was this a smart move by Israel, and can you think of any other clever military strikes throughout the annals of warfare?Support the show: http://www.wbap.com/chris-krok/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The economy of Lebanon was in a state of crisis before the explosion, with the government having defaulted on debt, the Lebanese pound plunging, and a poverty rate that had risen past 50%.[8] In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic had overwhelmed many of the country's hospitals, several of which were already short of medical supplies and unable to pay staff due to the financial crisis.[9] The morning before the explosion, the head of the Rafik Hariri University Hospital, which served as the main COVID-19 medical facility in Lebanon, warned that it was approaching full capacity.[10][11]Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support.

Ms. Donna Cowdrey and her late husband, U.S. Marine Brigadier General Christian B. Cowdrey, relied on Catholic military chaplains to access the sacraments and practice their faith through decades of service that included his deployment to Beruit at the time of the 1983 terrorist bombing that killed 241 American servicemen at the Marine Corps barracks there. In this edition of Catholic Military Life, she shares how those priests on active duty made a difference.

A Human Rights Professor at the University of Galway believes the prospect of new forces getting involved in the conflict between Israel and Hamas is unlikely right now, but certainly not impossible. Fears are growing in the Middle East, following the killing of Hamas Deputy Leader, Saleh Al Arouri in a drone strike in Beruit. Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has stated that 'the incident will not pass without punishment' and while Israel is yet to claim responsibility for the attack, it's involvement is highly suspected. However Professor Ray Murphy claims that both groups will be reluctant to wage war on one another again.

Israel has called on the United States to destroy Iran. Lindsey Graham has called for the country to be blown sky high. Meanwhile, Israel continues to bomb Gaza, kidnap children and promote an ethno-state. They've recently killed a top Hamas general in bombing in Beruit, Lebanon. Of course as it turns out, Hamas was created by Israel in the first place and October 7th was very notably a false flag attack with Israeli documents like Jericho Wall even showing the preknowledge of said attacks. Of course October 7th attacks would have been one of the world's greatest border security failures ever if it was legitimate. But of course as we know, it was not. They want to normalize fear and destruction to get order out of chaos. We must resist or we shall fall. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

BX Arabia is a regional behavioral insights conference that started in 2018 to emphasize the application of behavioral science in the Global South. Kurt and Tim were fortunate to be invited to moderate at the latest event, affording them the opportunity to have conversations with some of the region's most amazing BeSci thinkers. This episode highlights some of the unique insights from these conversations, with input from the following experts: Faisal Naru: Executive Director of the Policy Innovation Unit in the Nigerian Economic Summit Group and part of Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors. Dr. Ahmed Al Zahrani: Minister Deputy and Chair of G20 as well as the Executive Director of the Riyadh Behavioral Insight Center in the Ministry of Human Resource and Social Development in Saudi Arabia. Saud Al Rakhayes: Founder and Senior Behavioral Strategist at The Behavior Change. Aditya Jagati: Leader of the Busara Center's offices in India. Wiam Hasanain: Behavioral scientist and social impact advisor based in Jetta, Saudi Arabia. Nabil Saleh: Vice President Strategy at Nudge Lebanon. Ivo Vlaev: Professor of Behavioral Science at Warwick Business School, UK. Many of the examples of behavioral science discussed highlight that the Global South has some unique needs in the field. However, an overarching theme is that context matters! The root of successful behavioral science ideas come from encompassing the surrounding culture and environment.  BX Arabia was founded by Fadi Makki, who is also the leader of B4 Development in Doha, Qatar. He left us with these inspirational words: “Unlearn all the old habits that are anchored in intuition, and then embrace, evidence-based policies and tools such as experimentation.” Topics (2:14) What makes BX Arabia unique?  (5:58) The growth of behavioral science agencies around the world. (8:13) How behavioral science is being integrated into public policy globally. (11:46) Why good intentions aren't enough to deal with wicked problems. (23:36) The need for more behavioral scientists in the Global South. (26:25) How behavioral science improved traffic flow in Beruit. (31:15) The success of weight loss programs using behavioral insights. (36:50) The large-scale nudges that are being studied at the FIFA World Cup in 2022.
