As Iran continues its aerial attacks against Israel—hitting civilian targets including hospitals—Ayatollah Khamenei rejects former President Donald Trump's call for unconditional surrender. But what does Trump's demand really mean? Is it a surrender of nuclear capabilities, regime change, or both? This fiery segment questions the motives of pro-Ayatollah voices on both the left and right, while condemning Iran's civilian-targeted attacks. It also dives into how Trump survived two assassination attempts by Iranian operatives and warns future GOP candidates of similar threats with tacit Democrat indifference. Meanwhile, the left's defense of ICE facility sieges in Portland reveals a descent into guerrilla-style domestic warfare. With public opinion swinging sharply conservative on cultural issues and speech freedoms rising on platforms like X and Rumble, the tide may be turning. But as street violence escalates and blue states harbor chaos, one thing is clear—America is in a new kind of war, both foreign and domestic.
OK. Tonight I really. Must sleep.I spoke last night with Beni Sabti, an Iranian-born expert on security, culture and politics of his native country. BenI has been going night and day since Friday morning, being one of the most highly regarded Iran experts in the world. So I was thrilled to finally have some time to speak with him Wednesday night. We both signed off, exhausted, around midnight. Five minutes later the first alarms went off in central Israel, where he lives. This morning, multiple targets were hit by Iranian missiles, including Be'er Sheba's Soroka Hospital. We begin with a brief report on that, but this podcast is really devoted to Beni's insights about the psychology of Iranian leadership. Western analysts tend to extol the savvy Iranian negotiation strategy, but Beni is far less reverential. He thinks that the leaders of Iran have made a hash of nuclear negotiations. As well, the overwhelming majority of the population loathes this regime and is desperate for change. It's a fascinating exploration of a country and culture under siege and how they might react in the coming days.You may want to watch this one on YouTube - there are some interesting visuals throughout but especially for the first five minutes or so.

Sabti was born in Iran in 1972 and raised primarily under the Islamic Revolution regime. After escaping Iran to Israel in 1987, he served in the IDF, primarily as a researcher, mostly in projects relating to Iranian culture and influence on cognition, decision-making, and media. One of the flagship projects he led was the establishment of the IDF Spokesperson's platforms in Persian, designed to address the Iranian people directly.Sabti holds an M.A in political science and public communications from Bar Ilan University, and was a research fellow at JISS in Jerusalem. Sabti gives lectures about many issues related to Iran and is a commentator on Iran for media outlets in Israel and abroad. He was also one of the cultural advisors to the series “Tehran,” broadcast on Apple TV and Israel's Channel 11. This is a public episode.

It has been a five-day blitz of attacks by the Israeli Air Force over Iran. The IDF has taken out many key Iranian military and other strategic sites and capabilities. Civilians are very deliberately not targeted. In recent days Tehran has been evacuated—responding to IDF warnings. Based on photos we have seen, it is a ghost town. And now we are waiting to see what happens next. The nuclear centrifuges—located deep underground in a mountain bunker at Fordow, Iran—must be destroyed to truly end the country's nuclear ambitions. State of Tel Aviv and Beyond regular (and military expert) Ya'akov Katz gets into the details of what may be the next move in this critical military operation. Will the U.S. step in and finish off Fordow? Or will Israel continue to bear the burden, largely alone?For those of you continuing to enjoy our podcasts and articles—if you have not yet done so—please consider supporting our work with a paid subscription.

South Africa has strongly condemned the targeting of civilians amid escalating clashes between Iran and Israel, which have now entered their fifth day. The South African government is calling for immediate de-escalation, warning that civilians and infrastructure must be protected. The conflict has resulted in nearly 250 deaths, with both nations exchanging deadly strikes. Elvis Presslin spoke to Dr. Ori Goldberg, a political commentator, to discuss the implications of this conflict and South Africa's stance on the matter...
Civilians flee Tehran with Benjamin Netanyahu saying Israel is on the path to victory as its conflict with Iran escalates.
Civilians flee Tehran with Benjamin Netanyahu saying Israel is on the path to victory as its conflict with Iran escalates.
The unthinkable has happened: Israel and Iran are at war — not through proxies, but in direct conflict. In this episode of Investigate Earth, we break down how the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack set off a chain of events leading to today's all-out strikes on Tehran and Israeli cities. Israel has hit Iran's nuclear facilities. Iran is launching drones and missiles at Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Civilians are caught in the crossfire. What's the truth behind this escalation, and who stands to gain? We separate fact from fiction — no sides, just raw investigation.
The U.S. is evacuating nonessential staff from its Baghdad embassy and family members of military personnel from several bases in the Gulf amid growing concerns about the security situation, per two State Department and Pentagon officials. The unusual steps are taking place ahead of a crucial round of nuclear negotiations between the U.S. and Iran and amid threats made by Tehran to launch missiles against American military bases in the region in retaliation for any attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. Guest host Aaron Maté and retired United States Army Lieutenant Colonel, and foreign policy analyst Daniel Davis discuss the likelihood that an attack on Iran is imminent and why the consequences of such an attack could be dire. Plus segments on Vice President JD Vance's flailing attempts to snow podcaster Theo Von about the Gaza genocide and gymnast Simone Biles' confused attack on former competitive swimmer Riley Gaines over trans competitors in women's sports. Also featuring Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence show.
Today, Israel has carried out strikes in Iran targeting nuclear sites and military commanders in a major escalation of tensions. Israel say they targeted the “heart” of Iran's nuclear programme, whilst also killing Hossein Salami, chief of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards. Civilians, including children, were also among those killed, state media reported.In response the Israeli military said Iran launched about 100 drones towards Israel on Friday morning, with Israeli media reporting all the drones were intercepted.Adam is joined by Americast host Justin Webb and the Economist's defence editor Shashank Joshi.

At the beginning of this month, Israel and its apologists ferociously denied claims that IDF troops had fired upon civilians seeking aid at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) site, killing 31 people. On the second of June, Israeli forces again opened fire on civilians seeking aid in Gaza, killing three people and injuring more than 30. On June 3, Israeli forces again opened fire on civilians seeking aid, reportedly killing at least 27 people. The US/Israeli-backed GHF temporarily suspended operations after this spate of mass shootings. On June 8, Israeli forces again fired upon civilians seeking aid at two separate distribution points in Gaza, killing twelve. On June 9, Israel and Israeli-backed forces opened fire on a crowd at an aid site in Gaza, killing 14. And on June 10, at least 36 people were reported killed and 208 wounded when Israeli forces again fired on crowds seeking aid in Gaza. Reading by Tim Foley.
From January 18, 2024: Last month, the Department of Defense released its first-ever policy on civilian harm reduction. But as Marc Garlasco recently wrote in Lawfare, “[T]he policy comes at an awkward time … The U.S. military has issued guidance on how to protect civilians during operations just as its close ally Israel has reportedly killed thousands of Palestinians with American bombs.” And yet, many aspects of the new policy are nothing short of groundbreaking.Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien sat down with Marc, a former targeting professional and war crimes investigator and current military advisor at PAX, as well as Emily Tripp, the Director of Airwars, a transparency watchdog NGO which tracks, assesses, archives, and investigates civilian harm claims in conflict-affected nations. They discussed the state of civilian harm worldwide; the good, the bad, and the ugly of the Pentagon's new policy; and recent efforts to get U.S. allies and partners to buy in.

Epysode 40: "Bored Civilians". This week on The Vinyl Relics Podcast, we unearth a hidden gem from the early '70s — "Bored Civilians" by Keith Cross & Peter Ross. A one-off collaboration between two underground talents, this hauntingly beautiful album blends British folk, progressive rock, and melancholy songwriting in ways that still resonate today. We explore the unique alchemy between Cross's intricate guitar work and Ross's introspective lyricism, unpack the album's short-lived legacy, and consider why this obscure release has earned cult-classic status among collectors and audiophiles. I hope you dig "Bored Civilians" as much as I do. - Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X here --> @VinylRelicsPod Email me here --> farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance.

Several law enforcement agencies across the country have decided to replace a popular model of pistol due to concerns about misfires – the guns have been reported to fire accidentally, even when in their holsters. Washington’s police academy earlier this year banned the firearm at all its training facilities. It’s a move that’s drawn protest from several local police departments. In some cases, when agencies choose to replace the guns, they aren’t being sent to a landfill, or a recycling center. Instead, they’re being sold to dealers, who may put them back in circulation to the public. That’s the latest from a new report from Mother Jones and The Trace, a nonprofit newsroom covering gun violence in America. Guest: Ava Sasani is the assistant editor of The Data Hub - an initiative by The Trace, the only newsroom dedicated to reporting on gun violence. She’s also the co-author of the story “A Gun Deemed Too Dangerous for Cops, but Fine for Civilians” - created in partnership with Mother Jones.

Meanwhile, director general of Pakistan's Inter-Services Public Relations says its military is 'responding in kind' to LoC firings, inflicting significant losses, destroying checkposts.
International law is clear: warring parties cannot kill civilians. It's a war crime. But there is one exception. An attacker can justify killing them if they're being used as a shield for military objectives. This means a belligerent could kill a civilian and claim, after the fact, they were being used as shields by the enemy. Increasingly, that justification has been applied to neighbourhoods, districts, and even entire populations. IDEAS explores the long history of humans as shields and how this legal loophole has become a norm. Guests include Nicola Perugini, who teaches international relations at the University of Edinburgh. He is also co-author of Human Shields: A History of People in the Line of Fire. And Dr. Mimi Syed, an American emergency medicine physician who served two medical missions in Gaza in 2024.
Ukraine has been carrying out a genocide on ethnic Russians that live in what was eastern Ukraine... they've been doing it. using US weapons since 2014 after the CIA backed coup. Well in recent days Ukraine has ramped up its attacks on these civilian areas.
Since 2014, the regimes installed by Russia and its local collaborators in occupied regions of Ukraine have been arbitrarily detaining civilians on a massive scale. The Ukrainian government puts the number of those currently in detention at over 16,000. Journalists, activists, local politicians: just about anyone the occupation authorities take a dislike to is in danger of being taken prisoner. Some are held for a few days, others for years.

In this episode, Dani and Ben explore what it really takes to build discipline — and why borrowing lessons from military training isn't as simple as it sounds. They break down the difference between external and internal motivation, the role of routines and rituals, and how everyday civilians can cultivate true mental toughness without needing a drill sergeant. Whether you're trying to build healthier habits or simply hold yourself to a higher standard, this conversation offers practical (and realistic) strategies to help you level up.

Poet Jehanne Dubrow has written much about life in the military community. Her latest poetry collection Civilians delves into the profound transition from military to civilian life, reflecting her personal journey as a Navy spouse alongside her husband, LCDR Jeremy Schaub. This work serves as the concluding volume in her trilogy exploring the military spouse experience, following Stateside (2010) and Dots & Dashes (2017). We welcome Jehanne and Jeremy to talk about their life together with Daria Sommers. In Civilians, Dubrow examines the complexities that arise when a service member retires after decades of military service. The collection addresses the challenges both partners face as they navigate the shift from structured military roles to the uncharted territory of civilian life. Dubrow's poems candidly explore questions such as: What becomes of a sailor removed from a world of uniforms and uniformity? How is his language changed? His geography? And what happens to a wife once physical and emotional distances are erased, and she is reunited with her husband, a man made strange and foreign by his contact with war? Drawing inspiration from classical literature, Dubrow intertwines themes from works like Ovid's Metamorphoses, Homer's Odyssey, Euripides's The Trojan Women, and Sophocles's Philoctetes. This intertextuality enriches her exploration of transformation, displacement, and the search for identity post-service. For instance, she reflects on Penelope's role in The Odyssey as a parallel to her own experience, contemplating the challenges of loyalty and autonomy during her husband's deployments. The collection also addresses the emotional landscape of reintegration, highlighting the subtle yet profound shifts in marital dynamics. Dubrow's poetry captures the tension between longing for reunion and the reality of change, as both partners must reconcile their evolved identities within the marriage. Her work offers readers a candid look at the experience of watching a loved one adjust to home life after a career of military service, blending formal and free verse with materials ranging from the historical to the personal. Through Civilians, Dubrow provides a nuanced perspective on the often-overlooked experiences of military spouses, shedding light on the intricate process of redefining relationships and selfhood beyond the military sphere. Her poetry not only personalizes the broader narrative of military families but also invites readers to empathize with the universal themes of change, resilience, and love amidst uncertainty.

In Myanmar, the official death toll continues to climb three days after a devastating earthquake, but still reflects only a fraction of the number of deaths estimated by the United States Geological Survey. The challenges are now compounded by the country's civil war, as government forces launch air strikes against resistance fighters near the epicenter of the quake. Also, French far-right politician Marine Le Pen has been convicted of embezzlement, and barred from seeking public office for five years.

Summary In this episode of Armed American Radio, host Mark Walters discusses the critical issues surrounding gun rights, particularly focusing on concealed carry reciprocity and the role of law enforcement in protecting these rights. Dr. John Lott joins the conversation to share insights from his research, highlighting the effectiveness of concealed carry permit holders in stopping active shooter situations compared to police. The discussion also touches on recent legislation aimed at protecting gun rights during national emergencies and the ongoing challenges faced in advancing these rights in the political landscape. gun rights, concealed carry, national reciprocity, active shooter, law enforcement, legislation, self-defense, crime prevention, Second Amendment, gun control Takeaways Concealed carry reciprocity is supported by over 86% of police chiefs. Permit holders are extremely law-abiding and rarely commit crimes. Concealed carriers stopped 51.5% of active shootings, more than police. The media often ignores data that contradicts their narratives. National reciprocity faces significant political challenges in the Senate. Civilians are less likely to be shot than police in active shooter situations. Legislation is being introduced to protect gun rights during emergencies. The importance of contacting representatives to advocate for gun rights. The effectiveness of armed civilians in preventing crime is often overlooked. Armed teachers have not led to the problems predicted by opponents.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: We'll kick things off with a major update on the Trump administration's trade war, as the president pauses tariffs on a host of goods from Mexico and Canada for a period of one month, praising Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum's cooperation with the U.S. on the southern border. Later in the show, EU leaders gathered for emergency talks in Brussel on Thursday in the hopes of drastically boosting defense spending following President Trump's reversal of U.S. policies on Ukraine. Plus, at least 15 people were injured in South Korea on Thursday after their military accidentally dropped eight bombs on a civilian area during a joint training exercise near the North Korean border. In our 'Back of the Brief' segment, anti-Israel protests took a darkly radical turn this week at Columbia University, as an antisemitic mob calling for “Death to America” hung an effigy of a school administrator and handed out flyers authored by the “Hamas Media Office” glorifying the barbaric 7 October attacks.
