In today's episode of Trending Middle East, the UAE suspends all activities, trade exchanges and financial transactions with Iran, following the latest escalation in the conflict, marking a significant shift in their economic relationship. We also examine US President Donald Trump's insistence that there are no talks with Iran as the dispute over the Strait of Hormuz continues, while Tehran maintains the waterway will remain closed until its conditions are met and the US warns Oman against interfering in its efforts. And US envoy Tom Barrack criticises Israeli air strikes on Syria as an unnecessary escalation, anti-Muslim hate crimes in London reach record levels, and Dubai's paid parking operator says regulated parking will continue expanding as the city grows. Trending Middle East is AI-assisted, using original reporting published in The National and curated and edited by humans
The fastest way to understand a crisis is to stop arguing about talking points and look at what is physically happening. Today we do exactly that with Larry Johnson as LtCol. Karen Kwiatkowski fills in for Kyle, starting with the Strait of Hormuz and the hard question behind every headline: is it actually open, and who controls passage right now? We point listeners to real-time ship tracking, then walk through what the traffic patterns imply for global oil prices, shipping risk, and the credibility gap between public claims and observable reality. From there, we dig into Tehran's power structure and why personnel moves can change the tone and terms of negotiations. We connect the elevation of tougher security figures to a wider pattern: when moderates are removed, deals get harder, not easier. That sets up a blunt conversation about the MOU that was touted, then abandoned, plus the longer shadow of the JCPOA and how walking away reshapes what Russia, China, and other actors are willing to enforce. The practical takeaway is that “maximum pressure” can end up producing maximum leverage for the other side. We also bring the story home with what families are reporting from US Navy and Marine deployments: supply failures, substandard food, collapsing morale, and the strategic consequences of treating logistics like an afterthought. Finally, we stress-test the idea of bypassing maritime chokepoints with pipelines, including why crude oil is only part of the Persian Gulf export picture when LNG, fertilizer inputs, and helium are on the line too. If this helped you see the Iran-US conflict and energy security with clearer eyes, subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review. What do you think is the most realistic path to reopening the strait without escalating the war?

**Dragon's Back and the Return of the King** Get ready for a hilarious and action-packed episode of our podcast, where our beloved producer is back from a five-week hiatus and we are ready to dive into the latest news and stories. But first, let's talk about the elephant in the room - or rather, the elephant that's no longer in the room, as Jeana's favorite restaurant, Bang Up to the Elephant, has closed its doors. We'll explore the story behind this unique vegan spot and what it means for Denver's food scene. This episode is packed with exciting discussions, from the latest news on the Iran-US conflict to a fascinating analysis of a recent article from the Middle East Forum. We ask for hilarious and ridiculous explanations from listeners as to how Dragon hurt his knee. Plus, we'll talk about the upcoming ballot measures in Colorado, including a constitutional amendment that guarantees the right to purchase and sell natural gas. But that's not all - we'll also discuss the latest news on the Holy Iran thing, where President Trump seems to be willing to take a loss and give Iran a victory. And, of course, we'll touch on the topic of Israel and the so-called genocide in Gaza, where a recent report from the United Nations proves that the claims of widespread starvation and famine are simply not true. So, if you're ready for a dose of humor, news, and insight, tune in to this episode and find out what's been going on while you were away. Join us as we explore the latest stories and discuss the issues that matter.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Donald Trump has abandoned plans to charge ships using the Strait of Hormuz, just a day after announcing the controversial proposal. His administration has pressed ahead with a renewed blockade of Iranian shipping and another round of military strikes, but the U.S. President says that instead of the fee scheme, Gulf states will instead invest in the United States. Iran insists the ceasefire agreement reached last month has effectively collapsed, as both sides continue to exchange attacks.Donald Trump has abandoned plans to charge ships using the Strait of Hormuz, just a day after announcing the controversial proposal.His administration has pressed ahead with a renewed blockade of Iranian shipping and another round of military strikes, but the U.S. President says that instead of the fee scheme, Gulf states will instead invest in the United States.Iran insists the ceasefire agreement reached last month has effectively collapsed, as both sides continue to exchange attacks.

(3) The Phony War and Strategic Reserves: Regulatory Displacement, the Iran-US "Phony War," and the Doctrine of Unconditional Surrender Guests in Londinium, 92 AD: Gaius and Germanicus. Broadcasting a "bootleg edition" from a parking lot after being forced out by the building inspector, the hosts discuss the unsustainable nature of the escalating US-Iran conflict. Gaius compares the current "drip drip" of hostilities to the minor-sounding reports from 1938–1939, questioning the sustainability of these incremental escalations. Germanicus frames the conflict as a "Sitzkrieg" or "phony war," noting that unlike 1940, the current pressure is the depletion of strategic oil reserves — the crisis isn't "instantly imminent," but the drawdown makes it temporary. He critiques the American "neuralgia" of demanding unconditional surrender, an unattainable goal he traces from the Civil War to modern leaders like Trump and Biden, arguing that a military tradition requiring demonized enemies and total submission prevents realistic resolutions. They conclude that the current diplomatic and military path is a "will-o'-the-wisp" that cannot be achieved through air power or Blitzkrieg. (3)1945 BBERLIN

The US and Iran have continued to trade strikes, raising fears of a return to full scale conflict. At the same time, huge crowds of mourners pay respects to Iran's former Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei.Also in the programme: False claims about Ebola are fuelling violence against health workers in the Democratic Republic of Congo; and it's France versus Morocco at the World Cup.(Photo: A handout photo made available by the Iranian Supreme Leader Office shows crowds taking part in the burial of late Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in the city of Mashhad, Iran, 09 July 2026)
The Iran-US memorandum of understanding is apparently over… and we break it all down; Graham Platner's campaign may be over thanks to rape allegations, and Democrats did Nazi that coming; and Candace Owens' new theory about Charlie Kirk's assassination is… wait for it… that I did it.

In this edition of The World According to Irina Tsukerman, the bi-weekly geopolitical series on The KAJ Masterclass LIVE, host Khudania Ajay (KAJ) examines a series of fragile agreements and escalating tensions across multiple fronts with Irina Tsukerman, a US-based national security and human rights lawyer, renowned geopolitical analyst, and Editor-in-Chief of The Washington Outsider.

A deep dive into the astrology forecast for July 2026, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Austin Coppock. The month opens on highly unstable ground, dominated by a volatile Mars-Uranus conjunction that threatens sudden, unpredictable shifts and explosive turns. This erratic energy is ruled by a newly stationary retrograde Mercury, which has just backed away from a conjunction with Jupiter. This combination sets the stage for logistical snafus, technological difficulties, and widespread delays right out of the gate. Jupiter, having just entered Leo at the end of June, begins to form a tense opposition with Pluto that goes exact around the middle of the month. This highlights major power struggles and the tension between truth and control. This opposition is part of a much larger, momentous pattern of simultaneous outer planet alignments peaking this month. As Uranus completes its first exact trine with Pluto, these planets lock into a complex basket configuration alongside Jupiter and Neptune. This heavy planetary geometry indicates that significant precursor events are unfolding in the background, particularly surrounding rapid technological or military innovations. We finally see a more positive shift in the astrological weather during the second half of the month. Mars applies to a stabilizing, constructive sextile with Saturn, helping to ground the earlier chaos. Mercury stations direct, clearing up miscommunications, and the Sun makes its triumphant ingress into Leo to form an auspicious conjunction with Jupiter. This cazimi brings a much needed wave of radiant, showy warmth and outward confidence, despite an opposition with Pluto. However, a lingering Venus-Mars square operating in the background introduces an unwelcome element of creative friction and tension in partnerships, pitting the forces of unification against the drive to sever and divide. This late July window ultimately serves as a temporary lull, and a calm before the storm.

Today's Post - https://bahnsen.co/3R54h8Z David Bahnsen previews a forthcoming mid-year Dividend Cafe recap and notes a CNBC interview on market excesses in AI/tech and investor behavior. Markets rose sharply (Dow +300, S&P +1.1%, Nasdaq +2%) led by communication services; Google's first day in the Dow coincided with Verizon's exit, while materials fell. He argues recent breadth versus index performance supports rotation over correction, and questions whether stock and bond markets are truly pricing Fed rate hikes despite high futures-implied odds; the 10-year ended flat at 4.37%. He reviews Iran-US ceasefire uncertainty and Supreme Court activity, including sending the Lisa Cook firing dispute to lower court for due process while upholding an FTC firing. He flags bipartisan interest in taxing/data-center limits, discusses a likely housing bill with limited impact versus state/local barriers, cites rising supply-chain cost indicators, weak new-home sales and falling prices, notes Fed balance-sheet growth, oil at $70.50, and upcoming JOLTS and jobs data (Thursday). 00:00 Welcome and Week Ahead 02:12 Market Recap and Rotation 04:17 Fed Hike Debate 07:04 Geopolitics and Supreme Court 10:03 Data Centers and Housing Bill 12:59 Economy Housing and Fed Sheet 15:14 Energy and Jobs Week 16:05 Wrap Up and Thanks Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

Today's Post - https://bahnsen.co/4vxzpNy David Bahnsen hosts the Monday Dividend Cafe from Grand Rapids during the Acton Institute Symposium, noting a relatively quiet day that allows more market focus. The Dow rose 148 points while the S&P fell 0.37% and the Nasdaq dropped 1.33% amid weakness in communication services and mega-cap names. He highlights strong year-to-date energy performance, surprising small-cap outperformance, and argues much of the market's gain is concentrated in AI/AI-adjacent and energy. Bahnsen cites speculative behavior in the SpaceX IPO, including extreme trading volume, limited float, and a sharp decline from recent highs. Bonds sold off with the 10-year at 4.51% and the 2/10 spread flattening to 28 bps from ~80 bps. He shares an anecdote about Allbirds rebranding to “Smartbird” to pivot to AI, covers UK political instability, Iran-US talks, pending US housing legislation, mortgage rates, Fed hike probabilities, Alan Greenspan's death at 100, and oil falling to $75.19 as Hormuz uncertainty persists. 00:00 Welcome and agenda 01:24 Market close snapshot 02:19 Sector leadership and breadth 03:06 Small caps surprise strength 03:49 SpaceX IPO mania 06:23 Rates and yield curve shift 07:13 AI bubble anecdote 08:57 UK politics and US policy 09:59 Fed odds and Greenspan 11:08 Oil and energy outlook 12:06 Wrap up and reminders Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

Donald Trump says he expects a ceasefire to take effect "on all fronts", including between Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah in Lebanon while Vice President JD Vance says the memorandum signed with Tehran is already bearing fruit and insisted that Washington holds the cards in coming negotiations. Meanwhile, a message attributed to Iran's Supreme Leader says that Tehran will not submit to any excessive demands.Also in the programme: why one critic calls Barack Obama's Presidential Centre a 'Klingon Prison'; and how Nigerian sisters born conjoined at the head are enjoying life after pioneering surgery assisted by artificial intelligence.(Photo: US Vice President JD Vance speaks to the media about the Iran-US memorandum of understanding in the White House Briefing Room in Washington, DC, USA Credit: JIM LO SCALZO/EPA/Shutterstock)
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. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a deal Wednesday meant to end the Middle East war, causing it to go into effect two days earlier than originally envisioned, with Tehran agreeing to dilute its enriched uranium in return for large-scale economic relief. Magid takes us through the points of primary concern for Israel, including its right of self-defense against Hezbollah attacks. In a lengthy press conference at the G7 summit in France yesterday, Trump claimed Iran should be allowed to keep some of its ballistic missiles. He also repeatedly castigated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, including stating he is less justified in criticizing the memorandum of understanding that Trump signed with Iran because the Israeli premier purportedly pulled out of a joint operation to kill top Iranian general Qassem Soleimani in 2020. We hear other sharp criticisms of Netanyahu, including accusations of disproportionate force. In the second half of the program, Magid brings his exclusive scoop that the US is in talks with the Palestinian Authority about boosting what has been a strained bilateral relationship, as Washington seeks Ramallah’s cooperation to advance its landmark policy initiatives in the region. And who is chaperoning the reforms DC is seeking? Enter Saudi Arabia. And finally, Magid explains how former UK prime minister Tony Blair is taking on a larger role in the Board of Peace, where he will be tasked with managing the various mechanisms that are meant to oversee the postwar management of Gaza. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

A ceasefire has been reached. The Strait of Hormuz is reopening. Markets are moving. But Israel is still fighting, Iran's nuclear program is unresolved, and the hardest talks haven't even started.

This week's Unholy conversations is a rare interview with Nir Bar Dea, CEO of Bridgewater—the world's largest hedge fund. Bar Dea moves beyond market trends, framing our current moment as a volatile collision between a changing world order, and an unprecedented technological revolution fueled by AI. He offers a sobering perspective on why the comfort of the last several decades has perhaps left us less resilient than the generations before us, urging listeners to view history not as destiny, but as a lesson in the necessity of strength during turbulent times. The conversation turns personal, too: Bar Dea talks about the toll of his own service in the Israeli Air Force, what it's like being Israeli in New York since October 7th, and why he believes Israel's younger generation might be its greatest asset. 00:00 Intro 01:10 The Iran-US deal and why timing doesn't matter 06:25 Trump as outcome, not cause 09:30 Tough love: why we feel overwhelmed 10:59 Israel's resilient next generation 24:49 The AI infrastructure race — and Israel's gap 27:11 Being Israeli in New York since October 7th 32:54 The hidden cost of IDF service 35:02 Bridgewater's radical transparency culture 41:51 Rebuilding from Nir Oz — a story of hope Watch us on YouTube: Follow Unholy and learn more about the pod: https://unholy-podcast.lovable.app/ Join our Patreon community to get access to bonus episodes, discounts on merch and more: https://bit.ly/UnholyPatreon Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
