A political-religious armed movement in Yemen
POPULARITY
On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the U.S. Constitution and historical documents like the Federalist Papers do not grant the judiciary, including lower federal courts like the U.S. Court on Trade, the final authority in disputes. Congress, as the representative body, holds the ultimate decision-making power, particularly in matters of national policy. The judiciary's self-assumed power, stems from cases like Marbury v. Madison (1803), asserts that the framers intended the courts to act as "traffic cops" ensuring other branches stay within their constitutional lanes, not to usurp their authority. Congress, not the courts, should have the final say, aligning with the republican structure of the government. If the Supreme Court does not stop what these lower courts are doing, and quickly, Mark is going to lead a movement to pressure Congress to remake the lower courts. And under the Constitution, we have every right as the people of this country to press our elected representatives to uphold the Constitution and give us our republic back. The lower courts are violating separation of powers, seizing authority they do not have, and have become populated with rogue lawyers/activists. The Constitution empowers we, the people, and through us, our representatives, to fix this. Also, the Civil War, with over 700,000 casualties in a nation of 24 million, was worth the cost to end slavery and preserve the Union. Similarly, Israel's ongoing conflicts justify decisive action to destroy Hamas and prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, despite repeated ceasefires and attacks from groups like Hezbollah and the Houthis. Israel's fight is for survival, akin to the Civil War's existential stakes. Critics who label this a "forever war" or warmongering are dismissed, as some causes, like survival, demand fighting to the death. Later, Iran is actively advancing its nuclear weapons program. They are developing a sophisticated nuclear program and possesses a growing arsenal of ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear warheads over long distances. Learn more about your ad choices.

Edit This appears to be a well-structured international affairs program that covers a comprehensive range of global topics. A few observations: Strengths: Breadth of coverage: The show tackles major geopolitical regions (Middle East, Europe, Russia, Asia, Latin America) in a systematic way Expert sourcing: Features analysts from respected institutions like FDD, Carnegie Endowment, and U.S. Army War College Timely topics: Addresses current flashpoints like Israel/Gaza, Ukraine support, and regional elections Format observations: The 15-minute segment structure allows for focused discussion without superficial coverage Grouping related topics (like the two-part Israel segment) makes sense The "New World Report" branding for the Latin America hour creates clear thematic organization Potential considerations: Heavy focus on conflict and instability (which may reflect current global realities) The late-night time slot (9 PM-1 AM) suggests this targets a dedicated audience of foreign policy enthusiasts Limited representation of perspectives from the regions being discussed (mostly U.S.-based analysts) Overall, it reads like a serious foreign policy program designed for listeners who want in-depth international analysis rather than headlines. The academic and think tank sourcing suggests it aims for analytical depth over breaking news coverage.
An old friend returns to the Conflicted Community for a chat about his home country of Yemen. Yes, you guessed it, it's the irrepressible Baraa Shiban… Thomas and Baraa once again discuss the complex and evolving situation in Yemen, focusing on the impact of U.S. administrations, the role of the Houthis, and the broader regional dynamics in the Middle East. The impact of the new Trump administration has entirely changed the situation on the ground there, while increased sanctions and strikes from Israel have seen the humanitarian crisis deepen. The pair also talk about the implications of Houthi actions on regional stability, whether their attacks on Red Sea shipping and Israel will continue, and just what the ceasefire negotiations with the Trump administration mean.

Two young Israeli diplomats were murdered in Washington D.C. this week by a Jew-hater who had been brainwashed by Hamas propaganda. On this week's Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten discusses how impactful words can be, and how the spreading of Hamas lies by phony "human rights organizations" and the mainstream media can lead to murder. Plus, the Houthis in Yemen continue to fire ballistic missiles at Israel, on a nearly daily basis. These stories and more on this week's podcast.

//The Wire//2300Z May 23, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: MULTIPLE STABBING ATTACKS REPORTED IN GERMANY, ONE MASS STABBING AND TWO INCIDENTS INVOLVING SCHOOLCHILDREN. BRITISH AIRWAYS QUIETLY EXTENDS HALT OF FLIGHTS TO ISRAEL DUE TO SECURITY CONCERNS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Germany: Yesterday two stabbing attacks occurred in primary schools throughout the nation, both of which appear to have started as arguments between students.The first stabbing incident occurred in Spandau and involved an 11-year-old being stabbed by a fellow classmate at Weinmeisterhorn Elementary School. The victim remains hospitalized in intensive care following the incident, which began as a schoolyard fight that ended with the other student stabbing the victim.The second stabbing incident occurred a few hours after the first, in the town of Remschied. In this case an 11-year-old stabbed a fellow classmate (aged 13-years-old), allegedly due to a dispute between the two.This morning a mass stabbing was reported at the central train station in Hamburg. 12x victims were wounded in the attack, with 3x remaining in critical condition. The assailant was arrested at the scene, but has not been identified as of this report.AC: Some reports conflict on the identity of the assailant. Some sources claim the attacker was female, while others state that it was male, or at minimum of questionable status.Middle East: This morning Israeli media reported that British Airways canceled all flights in and out of Israel until July 31, due to security concerns.AC: This is an interesting case as British Airways hasn't publicly acknowledged this development, at least not yet. As a reminder, British Airways (along with a few other smaller airlines) had halted all flights into and out of Israel's Ben Gurion airport due to successful Houthi missile strikes a few months ago. Overnight, it seems as though Israeli journalists went onto the British Airways website and discovered that tickets could not be booked for the airport until August. As such, what is being touted as a flight-ban is probably a quiet and non-publicized extension of a pre-existing flight ban for security reasons.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Right now details on both juvenile-linked stabbing incidents in Germany are sketchy at best; Quite literally zero mainstream media outlets have mentioned either incident...even Googling these stories turns up zero search results. However, the small handful of local German-language media sources have suggested that both assailants were German citizens of an immigrant origin. A few AfD politicians and figures have also made similar statements, but since the offenders are juveniles, very little investigation will be conducted due to Germany's procedures involving underage criminals.Similarly, the ax-attack that occurred two days ago in the parking lot of a grocery store in France has received little media attention and has subsequently been hard to find any details on. Most local French-language independent media that has mentioned the story seem to think this ax-murder was intra-cultural violence situation as both the victim and perpetrator were of Turkish ethnicity. In any case, though these brutal attacks and murders are very common throughout Europe, it's becoming increasingly difficult to find out that an attack occurs in the first place. In almost all cases, the only way the world knows of an attack is via individual citizens posting about the incident on social media in such a way that does not trigger algorithmic suppression of the information.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//
Today, Morgan, Martha, Les, and Jess examine the escalating tensions in the Middle East. Israel has launched a renewed offensive in Gaza amid mounting international pressure to end hostilities and allow humanitarian aid into the territory. Meanwhile, the murder of two young Israeli embassy employees has shocked the world and further underscored the volatility on multiple fronts.As Hamas remains active and Hezbollah and Houthi forces continue attacks—each backed by Iran—the Trump administration navigates complex terrain. With U.S.-Iran nuclear talks ongoing, and intelligence of a potential Israeli strike on Iranian facilities, questions loom: Will the administration's posture embolden or restrain Israeli action? Can Trump's hardline stance on Iran deliver results—or ignite broader conflict? And as Gaza remains in crisis and the region teeters, is Washington's strategy up to the challenge?Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.Follow our experts on Twitter: @morganlroach@marthamillerdc@NotTVJessJones@lestermunsonLike what we're doing here?

The news is dizzying. President Trump is visiting Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE where he'll meet terrorist leaders, negotiating with Iran that threatens Israel, the US, and the Arab world, and after cutting a deal with the Houthis that leaves Israel out, yet while brokering a deal with Hamas to secure the release of an American-Israeli hostage. There are rumors of Qatar, Hamas' patron and host, gifting a $400 million plane to Trump, raising questions of Qatari influence at a time they have not just supported Hamas, but also anti-Israel/antisemitic protests taking place across America. Head-spinning is an understatement. Even a knowledgeable observer could be forgiven for not understanding it all.

In this episode of Tin Foil Hat, Monica Perez joins us to unpack the geopolitics and media manipulation behind today's global conflicts. They discuss how accusations of anti-semitism are used to silence dissent, economic pressure to boost defense spending, and the revival of wartime policies like the Alien Enemies Act. The conversation also explores how psychedelics may blunt political awareness and how narratives around Ukraine and the Houthis could signal a path to broader military escalation, including possible strikes on Iran.

C dans l'air du 20 mai 2025 : Trump a-t-il lâché Netanyahu ? Critiqué pour son blocus total de la bande de Gaza depuis onze semaines, Israël a laissé entrer ce mardi "une centaine de camions" dans l'enclave palestinienne. Un faible nombre - après les 9 camions d'hier - qui est loin d'apaiser les craintes de l'ONU et de nombreuses ONG, qui avertissent depuis des mois du risque de famine à Gaza. Nourriture, eau potable, carburant, médicaments... Depuis le 2 mars, pas une seule entrée d'aide alimentaire n'était parvenue à Gaza, provoquant des situations graves de malnutrition et de famine dans l'enclave dévastée par un an et demi de guerre. "Deux millions de personnes sont affamées à Gaza", a alerté hier l'Organisation mondiale de la santé. Parallèlement l'armée israélienne continue sa vaste offensive terrestre dans l'enclave palestinienne, causant de nombreux morts et des déplacements massifs de la population. Avec un objectif clair : "Nous sommes engagés dans des combats intenses et à grande échelle à Gaza, et nous avançons. Nous avons l'intention de prendre le contrôle de tout le territoire" a expliqué hier le Premier ministre Benyamin Netanyahu. Son ministre des Finances, Bezalel Smotrich, a déclaré de son côté : "Israël va détruire tout ce qui reste de la bande de Gaza".Un jusqu'au-boutisme du gouvernement israélien qui est dénoncé sur la scène internationale. Hier, dans un communiqué commun, 23 pays occidentaux ont critiqué sévèrement les modalités de l'aide. Dans un autre, la France, le Royaume-Uni et le Canada ont menacé de prendre des mesures concrètes, pour ne pas rester "les bras croisés pendant que le gouvernement Netanyahu poursuit ces actions scandaleuses". Mais lesquelles ? Au micro de France Inter ce mardi matin, le ministre des Affaires étrangères a évoqué la proposition des Pays-Bas de réexaminer "l'accord d'association entre l'Union européenne et Israël, et en particulier (celui) de son article 2 qui dit que chacune des deux parties, l'Europe et Israël, doit respecter les droits de l'homme". Jean-Noël Barrot a également assuré que la France travaillait sur le dossier d'une reconnaissance de l'État palestinien. "On ne peut pas laisser aux enfants de Gaza en héritage la violence et la haine. Donc il faut que tout cela cesse et c'est pourquoi nous sommes déterminés à reconnaître l'Etat de Palestine". Ceci devrait intervenir lors de la conférence internationale coprésidée par la France et l'Arabie Saoudite pour relancer une solution pacifique au conflit israélo-palestinien dite "à deux Etats", qui se tiendra du 17 au 20 juin.Dans la communauté internationale, les appels à des sanctions se multiplient, et même les principaux alliés d'Israël commencent à prendre leurs distances face à l'ampleur du massacre. La clé est-elle entre les mains de Donald Trump ? Si les États-Unis n'ont signé aucun des communiqués d'hier, l'administration Trump a sans doute joué un rôle dans la décision de reprendre cette aide limitée. Ces dernières semaines les signes de tension se sont multipliées entre Washington et Israël. Il y a eu des négociations directes entre les États-Unis et le Hamas qui ont permis la libération de l'otage américano-israélien Edan Alexander, les pourparlers avec l'Iran sur le dossier nucléaire, la trêve avec les Houthis, la levée des sanctions contre la Syrie ainsi que la décision de Donald Trump de rencontrer al-Charaa alors qu'il a exclu Israël de sa tournée au Moyen-Orient. Selon le Washington Post hier, des proches du président américain ont également averti les responsables israéliens qu'ils risquaient de perdre le soutien de l'administration américaine s'ils ne mettaient pas fin à la guerre alors que des négociations entre Israël et le Hamas se tiennent depuis vendredi à Doha, pour un arrêt des combats et la libération des otages.L'attaque du 7-Octobre a entraîné la mort de 1 218 personnes du côté israélien, en majorité des civils, selon un décompte de l'AFP, qui s'appuie sur des données officielles. Sur les 251 personnes alors enlevées, 57 restent retenues à Gaza, parmi lesquelles 34 ont été déclarées mortes par l'armée.LES EXPERTS :- Anthony BELLANGER - Éditorialiste à France Info TV, spécialiste des questions internationales- Alexandra SCHWARTZBROD - Directrice adjointe de Libération, ex-correspondante à Jérusalem de 2000 à 2003- Agnès LEVALLOIS - Spécialiste du Moyen Orient et vice-présidente de l'IREMMO, Institut de Recherche et d'Études Méditerranée Moyen-Orient- Vincent HUGEUX - Journaliste indépendant, essayiste, spécialiste les enjeux internationaux

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. A new round of negotiations for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage deal between Hamas and Israel began in Qatar on Saturday after the Israeli military launched its new expanded offensive in the Gaza Strip, dubbed “Gideon’s Chariots,” that will seek to “seize strategic areas” of the Hamas-run Strip. Fabian describes the slow rollout of the operation so far and how many more troops have entered Gaza as of Sunday morning. Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis say they fired two ballistic missiles at Israel early Sunday morning. This comes after Israeli fighter jets carried out a wave of airstrikes in Yemen on Friday afternoon, targeting two Houthi-controlled ports in the west of the country, and threatened to kill the terror group’s leader. We discuss the growing realization that the terrorist group is undeterred by IAF strikes and whether Israel will take another tack soon. The Israel Defense Force said Saturday that it killed a Hezbollah commander in a drone strike in Lebanon. The operative, who was targeted on a road near Mazraat Jemjim — some 30 kilometers from the Israeli border — in the Tyre District, was the commander of Hezbollah’s forces in the Beaufort Castle area, the military said. Fabian updates us on who he was and what he was allegedly up to. To end the program, we discuss Israel's participation in last night's Eurovision final and Yuval Raphael's second-place finish. Israel's 2025 contestant, who survived the Nova festival massacre on October 7, 2023, won the popular vote, but was less warmly received by the jury. Fabian gives some reasons why. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

We spend the whole program with Nadav Wieman, a former IDF sniper and now executive director of Breaking the Silence, an organization of Israeli veterans who expose the reality of life in the Occupied Territories and work to end the occupation. He and Ralph discuss Nadav's experience in the IDF and his work trying to turn the tide of sentiment in Israel against the ongoing genocide.Nadav Weiman is the executive director of Breaking the Silence, an organization of Israeli veterans who expose the reality of life in the Occupied Territories and work to end the occupation. Mr. Weiman served in a sniper's team in the special forces of the Nahal brigade and attained the rank of staff sergeant. He also worked as a history and literature teacher and was the legal guardian at a home for underprivileged teens in Tel Aviv.Now the soldiers that gave us testimonies told us that they came to the commander and said, "Okay, this is too much." And the commander said, "Listen, we lost too many dogs in the dog unit, so we're using Palestinians as human shields."Nadav Wieman former IDF sniper and Executive Director of Breaking the SilenceWhen the first soldier came to us in December 2023 and told us about using Palestinians as human shields, I thought it was an isolated event. But then another soldier came and another soldier and another soldier, and then we understood. It's a new protocol. It's called the Mosquito Protocol. “Mosquito,” is a code name on the radio saying, take a Palestinian man and put him in an IDF uniform, and in some cases a GoPro camera on his chest. And then soldiers were ordered to send them into tunnels to sweep the tunnels or into homes to sweep the homes.Nadav WiemanYou have another protocol called “Wasp”. The Wasp Protocol is Palestinians sweeping tunnels, but this time our Palestinians working with the IDF were brought from the West Bank. And they were told that they will get something from us, a permit or something like that.Nadav WiemanNews 5/16/251. Trump has abruptly ended the American war on the Houthi militia in Yemen, saying in a press conference, “You know, we hit them very hard. They had a great capacity to withstand punishment…You can say there's a lot of bravery there…It was amazing what they took. But we honor their commitment and their word,” per Prem Thakker. Behind the scenes, a New York Times report exposes the jaw-dropping waste that precipitated the U.S. backing down from this campaign. Some highlights include that the Houthis almost shot down an F-35 fighter jet – which run about $100 million apiece – that this campaign used so many precision munitions that Pentagon contingency planners grew “increasingly concerned about overall stocks,” and U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM)'s reported metric of success was “bombs dropped,” evoking the failed campaigns in Vietnam, per the Stimson Center's Emma Ashburn. All in all, this campaign cost $1 billion over the course of just 30 days.2. In more stunning news of Pentagon profligacy, CNN reported on May 6th that a SECOND F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jet fell off the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier into the Red Sea following the first lost jet by just over a week. Each of these planes bear a price tag of over $60 million, according to the Navy, just in case you were wondering where your tax dollars are going now that Trump and Musk have slashed the budget of anything resembling a social program.3. In more foreign policy news, Edan Alexander, the last remaining U.S. citizen hostage in Gaza, has been released. Alexander was born and raised in New Jersey, then moved to Israel to serve in the IDF after graduating high school in 2022. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu was quoted saying “[Alexander's release] was achieved thanks to our military pressure and the political pressure exerted by President Trump. This is a winning combination.” Meanwhile Trump posted on Truth Social “Edan Alexander, American hostage thought dead, to be released by Hamas. Great news!” Despite this heraldry however, MSN reports Alexander “rebuffed” a personal meeting with Netanyahu. Counter Currents adds “In a video released by Hamas…last November, Alexander harshly criticized Netanyahu…[accusing] the Israeli leader of abandoning the…[hostages]…and urged Trump…to secure his release.” In this video, Alexander told Netanyahu, “You neglected us…We die a thousand times every day, and no one feels our pain.”4. In a similar vein, the Jerusalem Post reports, “The Trump administration's Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, criticized Israel in a meeting with hostage families…[saying] ‘We want to bring the hostages home, but Israel is not willing to end the war.'” Witkoff added “Israel is prolonging [the war] despite the fact that we don't see where else we can go and that an agreement must be reached.” Further, the New Arab reports “The Trump administration has…dropped its longstanding demand for Hamas to disarm as a precondition for a Gaza ceasefire.” This willingness to call a spade a spade regarding Israel's intractable opposition to peace, or even a lasting ceasefire – coupled with a seemingly genuine willingness to realistically approach peace talks – has been a marked point of departure compared to the Biden administration, which “Never Pressured Israel for Ceasefire,” according to Israeli Ambassador Yechiel Leiter, as reported in Drop Site News.5. Turning to some positive consumer protection news, “Ticketmaster will now show how much you'll pay for tickets — fees included — before checkout,” the Verge reports. This “All In Prices” initiative is an effort by the company to comply with the Federal Trade Commission's ban on junk fees. The FTC cracked down on Ticketmaster following the 2022 Taylor Swift Eras Tour “ticketing catastrophe.” In addition to the FTC, the Department of Justice sued Ticketmaster and its parent company, Live Nation in 2024, accusing them of “driving up prices as a result of their alleged monopoly,” while the House passed the TICKET Act in 2024, a law that would “force ticket sellers to show full prices upfront.” The Senate is considering that bill now.6. Meanwhile, Igloo has voluntarily widened a recall of their coolers, related to “possible amputation and crushing hazards,” per ABC. The Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a recall notice for a little over a million Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers back in February, on the basis that “the tow handle can pinch consumers' fingertips against the cooler,” risking “fingertip amputation.” ABC reports this recall now includes “130,000 additional coolers, as well as approximately 20,000 in Canada and 5,900 in Mexico.” According to the CPSC, “since the recall was initiated in February, Igloo has received 78 reports of injuries involving the recalled coolers, including 26 reports of bone fractures, fingertip amputations or lacerations.”7. The first American Pope, Leo XIV, addressed the College of Cardinals on Sunday, in part explaining his decision to take that particular name. According to Business Insider, AI played a major role. The Pope told the college, “I chose to take the name Leo XIV…mainly because Pope Leo XIII in his historic Encyclical 'Rerum Novarum' addressed the social question in the context of the first great industrial revolution…In our own day, the Church offers to everyone the treasury of her social teaching in response to another industrial revolution and to developments in the field of artificial intelligence that pose new challenges for the defence of human dignity, justice, and labor.” In a January 2024 message, Pope Francis said “At this time in history, which risks becoming rich in technology and poor in humanity, our reflections must begin with the human heart.”8. Turning to domestic politics, 25-year-old Democratic National Committee Vice Chair David Hogg is fighting an uphill battle to remain in his post. The activist and survivor of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas school shooting has been a target of the party hierarchs since he refused to disassociate himself from the mission of the organization he cofounded – Leaders We Deserve – which seeks to primary “asleep-at-the-wheel” Democrats. On May 10th, POLITICO reported that Hogg sought a compromise with the party, vowing that he would erect a “internal firewall,” barring him from “accessing any internal DNC information about congressional and state legislative races as long as he was supporting challengers.” The DNC flatly refused. Instead, it would seem they are trying to oust Hogg by voiding his election, claiming it violated “fairness and gender diversity,” rules, per Semafor. On May 13th, the DNC's Credentials Committee voted to nullify the results of the February election, the Hill reports. According to POLITICO, the full DNC could “opt to hold a virtual vote ahead of the meeting later this summer. Otherwise it will take the issue up during its August meeting.”9. In Newark, New Jersey, Mayor Ras Baraka was “arrested and detained by masked federal immigration police Friday when he joined three Democratic congressmembers set to tour a newly reopened 1,000-bed [ICE] jail run by GEO Group,” Democracy Now! reports. This is the latest installment in the power struggle between federal agents and local officials over immigration, an escalation from the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan in April. Dugan herself was indicted this week for supposedly “obstructing or impeding a proceeding,” per Wisconsin Public Radio. Alina Habba, U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, tweeted, “The Mayor of Newark…committed trespass…He has willingly chosen to disregard the law…He has been taken into custody.” She added in all caps, “NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.” Chilling words.10. Finally, we pay tribute to Uruguayan revolutionary, anti-dictatorship rebel and former president José “Pepe” Mujica, who passed away this week following a protracted battle with esophageal cancer. Mujica was celebrated throughout the world during his tenure as president for his humble lifestyle; He was called ‘the world's poorest president' famously driving a beat-up old VW bug and donating the bulk of his salary. In 2013, he delivered a bombshell speech at the United Nations in wherein he decried capitalism and the environmental destruction it has wrought. Pulitzer Prize-winning author and historian Greg Grandin eulogized Mujica, writing “He was a member of the insurgent, armed Tupamarus, and served 14 years in prison, much of it in solitary, subject to extreme torture techniques taught by US advisors… Upon his release, he helped build the Frente Amplio into one of the most successful left coalitions. He radiated humility and humanity but he knew that power was meant to be taken and used, and behind his smile was steel. He was 89.”This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

American taxpayers may have flown Donald Trump to the Middle East, but he's not there to negotiate on behalf of our strategic or national interests—he's on the prowl for goodies, and happy to make policy changes in return. Like, the new Syrian president offering a Trump Tower in Damascus: Zap, sanctions on Syria are over. Or the jumbo jet-giving Qataris requesting that Trump go 'easy' on Iran: 'Not a problem, no sirree.' Sorry to all the hawkish Trump voters out there who thought he'd deliver a maximum pressure campaign on Tehran.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Natalie Orpett, Tyler McBrien, and Daniel Byman to talk through the week's big national security news, including:“Borderline Behavior.” A major flare-up over the disputed region of Kashmir took place this past week, leading to a major exchange of hostilities between the nuclear powers of India and Pakistan before they agreed to a U.S.-brokered ceasefire—one that is mostly holding, despite alleged violations on both sides. How durable a resolution does this seem likely to be? And what additional steps need to be taken to preserve peace?“Parting Ways.” President Trump announced a major change to U.S. policies in the Red Sea this week, in the form of a ceasefire with the Yemeni armed group and de facto government Ansar Allah (also known as the Houthis), in which they would cease attacks on U.S. shipping. But the credibility of this commitment is in doubt, as are the implications of U.S. actions for shipping through the Red Sea more broadly. What should we make of this major policy shift? “First Class Problems.” President Trump announced this week that he would be accepting the gift of a luxury jet from the government of Qatar for use as Air Force One during his presidency, which would then be transferred to his foundation shortly before he leaves office in 2029. How big a problem is this? And how can he accept this gift, given that the Constitution's Foreign Emoluments Clause prohibits “accept[ing]...any present…of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State”?In Object Lessons, Tyler delighted in the Financial Times's trolling of its own “Lunch with the FT,” in which Sam Altman's kitchen and gross misuse of olive oil becomes a bizarre metaphor for OpenAI. Natalie delighted in some hometown, Pope-town pride (and some Lou Malnati's pizza). Scott delighted in discovering both Dolcezza and their affogato with decaf espresso, a dessert for those who crave flavor and excitement but who also like sleep. And Dan, in utterly failing his wife, delighted in reaping the benefits of her Mother's Day gift: a little contraption that sits somewhere between wellness hack and medieval torture rack.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Iran Thinks They Can Outlast Trump. Can They? President Donald Trump embarked on his first major foreign trip to the Middle East this week, making stops in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. The goal? Replacing “strife” with “money,” bring Iran into the fold, and drop hostilities towards Israel. An ambitious agenda, maybe too ambitious, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “And the subtext of all of these meetings were: We're going to replace strife with money. We're all gonna be profitable. And we have to bring the cause of all of this trouble, Iran, into the fold of the Middle East and drop the hostility to Israel. Notice, of course, that he didn't go to Israel, although he was trying to elicit support for the continuation of the Abraham Accords with Saudi Arabia and Qatar. “This is very ambitious but it's also very dangerous. Donald Trump thinks he can cut a deal with Iran so that they would do essentially three things: They would give up their nuclear program; they would stop the subsidies to the terrorist surrogates of the Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis; and they would liberalize their society and reenter the family of nations. I don't think that Shia theocracy feels that is their agenda.”
Dave DeCamp returns to the show to discuss recent developments in the Middle East. They talk about Trump's meeting with the new bin Ladenite president of Syria, the end of US operations targeting the Houthis of Yemen, Trump's negotiations with Iran, whether Trump really is turning on Netanyahu and the status of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

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. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today’s episode. US President Donald Trump is still in the region and is visiting the United Arab Emirates today. After landmark deals in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, we discuss what may come out of the UAE trip — and the entire trip’s resonance for Israel, including Trump’s new relationship with Syria. We begin by discussing a half-hour meetup in Riyadh with Syria’s President Ahmed al-Sharaa. Trump announced the US was lifting sanctions on the country the previous day and urged Syria to join the Abraham Accords normalizing relations with Israel. It was the first encounter between leaders of the countries in 25 years. We hear how Israel views this budding relationship. In Qatar, Trump signed an agreement with Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani that will “generate an economic exchange worth at least $1.2 trillion,” the White House said. The announcement came as negotiations kicked off in Doha over a potential hostage-ceasefire deal with the Hamas terror group. Horovitz describes how Israel was not apart of the Trump visit, yet Israeli representatives are currently in the country in a renewed US push to negotiate an end to the war. To end the program, we speak about Israel’s approaching participation in tonight’s Eurovision semifinal. Horovitz describes the antipathy already experienced by Yuval Raphael, Israel’s 2025 contestant, who survived the Nova festival massacre on October 7, 2023.

It was clear during U.S. President Donald Trump's tour of the Gulf states that his foreign policy is in a very "different place" than Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's, Washington-based veteran diplomatic journalist Laura Rozen said on the Haaretz Podcast, pointing to the growing divergence in interests between the White House and Israel's ruling coalition, both on Gaza and Iran. In his second term in office, Trump "wants to make peace deals and trade deals," Rozen said, as Netanyahu, "for his own political reasons, wants to continue the Gaza war indefinitely." From his behavior, it seems that Netanyahu "may be missing the signals that Trump is going in such a different direction," she said, pointing to Trump's agreement to cease U.S. attacks on the Houthis, his meeting with Syria's leader during his stay in Riyadh, his statements favoring a diplomatic nuclear deal with Iran over military confrontation, and his willingness to negotiate directly with Hamas for the release of Israeli-American hostage Edan Alexander. Netanyahu's decision to sit on the sidelines, she said, and failure to make a gesture that could have moved Trump to include a stop in Jerusalem on his Middle East visit, was something that not only the Trump administration but "a lot of pro-Israel Americans" found disappointing. Many of the changes in Trump's Middle East policies – particularly regarding Iran – since his first term, Rozen noted, can be attributed to a power shift in the Republican Party. The increasingly strong "America First, MAGA wing of the GOP is not interested in wars of choice in the Middle East," she said, and thus far, in the second Trump term "the neoconservative element, the hawkish element, is definitely getting battered." As a result, "strangely, you see MAGA people who are almost with the more traditional progressive Democrats when it comes to looking for a diplomatic solution on Iran, which is not something we saw in Trump's first term. It feels a little bit disorienting, even here in Washington."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In a high-energy episode, @intheMatrixxx and @shadygrooove dive into Trump's America-First triumphs, spotlighting his May 15, 2025, visit to the UAE—the final leg of his Middle East tour—where he was welcomed like a king with an epic airshow, camel motorcade, and a private tour of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, which he called an “honour.” Trump secured $1.4 trillion in U.S. investments, targeting AI, energy, and manufacturing, including a 500,000 Nvidia AI chip annual order, while deepening defense ties with the UAE to counter China's tech ambitions. Building on Qatar's multibillion-dollar trade and defense deals and Saudi Arabia's $600 billion pledge, Trump's tour raised trillions, proving his deal-making strengthens America's economic and strategic edge. The show highlights Trump's claim in Qatar that “nobody is laughing at our country anymore,” a stark contrast to past ridicule, as Gulf states roll out the red carpet and global leaders align with his vision—from tariff truces with China and the UK to ceasefires with the Houthis, India, and Pakistan.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First, we'll revisit the recent ceasefire struck between the Trump administration and Iranian-backed Houthis, and the critical intelligence that led the White House to cut the bombing campaign against the terror group short. Later in the show—amid ongoing concerns about Russian aggression and whether the EU can rely on the U.S. as a military deterrent, French President Emmanuel Macron has said he is open to deploying his country's nuclear weapons to other European countries.

David Waldman is not “live” today but instead is living the life out and about from KITM World Headquarters. Following yesterday's show David took another swig of throat tea and just kept talking authoritatively about the news for another couple of hours. No problem, there was plenty of Donald K. Trump corruption and duplicity to go over. Losing only three F/A-18 Hornets, the US Navy defeated Houthi rebels by giving them the “time out” hand signal and sailing over the horizon. The Middle East victories just keep on coming… just not for the United States. Elon Musk sold Saudi Arabia on Starlink, so Musk's on/off switch for civilization will soon be installed worldwide. Musk is still having plenty of success worming his way into US government, showing there's no hard feelings from his most hilarious joke in all history, DOGE. Congress couldn't have guessed that Trump would try to take over all of government, after all, it never came up in any of their focus groups. Now, it's the judiciary's turn to be surprised. Meanwhile, Donald can tell Tina Peters is innocent just by looking at her, the same legal process he used for those South African refugees who look like they just stepped off a tour bus in Branson. Due process only gets in the way of Trump's common sense.

Today US President Donald Trump landed in Saudi Arabia, the first stop on his first major foreign trip since returning to office. After Riyadh, he'll go on to Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Notably absent from his itinerary is Israel. On Monday, the US went around Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to secure the release of Edan Alexander, the final living American hostage out of Gaza. It appears to be part of a larger pattern, with America also engaging in direct talks with Iran, indirect talks with Hamas and agreeing to a ceasefire deal with the Houthis in Yemen. To assess all this, former US Ambassador to both Egypt and Israel, Daniel Kurtzer joins the show to discuss.

Both Presidents Biden and Trump launched bombing campaigns against Houthi rebels in Yemen after the militant group attacked ships in the Red Sea. This week, Trump said the campaign was over, and the Houthis had agreed to a ceasefire — a claim the militants deny. We explain why the campaign started, why it ended, and what's to come.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, 2 days after the Houthis struck near Israel's Ben Gurion Airport with a ballistic missile and 4 days before negotiations with Iran - the Houthis surrendered. This seems odd. Then afterward the Houthis say they will continue to attack Israel, even after the ceasefire with the U.S. What's going on? Have you noticed how much the fifth-column isolationists sound like Bernie Sanders, AOC, and the rest of the Squad? And not just on foreign policy and national security. They often use the same Marxist class warfare propaganda and the ACLU's extremist misinterpretation of our Constitution including the 1st amendment. Also, we know that Democrats goal to transform the population through immigration to undermine and dismantle the existing societal structure. The Constitution doesn't grant due process to everyone, and the Supreme Court lacks clarity on its meaning. Democrats want to extend full due process to 21 million illegal aliens, which is not possible due to limited courts and judges. This is a strategy to allow illegal aliens to come in, then keep them here by arguing due process. If they succeed the country is dead.

In a big win for the Trump administration, America is officially distancing itself and all of its funding from any gain-of-function research. But will countries like China continue to engage in this dangerous research? Filling in for Glenn, Stu and Pat highlight Trump's decisive leadership, discussing his self-deportation incentive plan and the bold idea of reopening Alcatraz to reinforce law and order. Israel launched a precision strike on a Yemeni airport in response to Houthi attacks, which essentially wiped it from existence. The Met Gala's $70,000-a-plate elite spectacle celebrated "Black Dandyism," a media-hyped cultural theme most Americans don't know or care about. Elon Musk aims to secure humanity's future by colonizing Mars and creating a cosmic life insurance policy for our species. A 2018 clip of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) labeling white men as America's greatest threat without proof is resurfacing. Would a white male congressman face harsher repercussions for saying the same about black women?
