Israel and Iran have continued attacking each other overnight with more airstrikes, as both countries wait for Donald Trump to decide if America will bomb nuclear sites in Iran. What will happen next if the US decides to attack? Will the Ayatollah's regime fall? And what will Israel do if America doesn't intervene?To discuss all this and more on the latest episode of The Fourcast, Matt Frei is joined by former Israeli Defence Forces general Amos Yadlin who also served as the head of Israel's Military Intelligence Directorate for five years.

PRESS REVIEW – Tuesday, June 17: We start with a look at the global headlines discussing the Israel-Iran war. Next, we turn to analysis pieces discussing Trump's motives for (non)intervention in Iran. Meanwhile, the Trump family has a new venture: a golden smartphone "built in the US". Finally, a 135-year-old tortoise reaches a new personal milestone. For a fifth day in a row, the war between Israel and Iran is dominating global headlines. Iranian daily The Tehran Times reports on the attacks on Iran's state TV. Journalists there say they aren't "giving up". The Israeli right-wing daily The Jerusalem Post focuses on the Israeli Defence Forces' military gains: 80 to 90 percent of the Iranian missiles have been intercepted, according to the paper. The paper also says that Israel destroyed a third of Iran's ballistic missile launchers. French left-wing daily Le Monde reports that Iran was "hit from all sides and threatened with chaos". The left-wing British daily Morning Star headlines with "NO RESPITE". The paper says that the conflict shows no signs of slowing down. The Financial Times writes that Israel claims "control" of the skies of Tehran. It says that so far, the conflict has cost more than 260 lives.  Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump is trying to position himself as a peacemaker in the new war. Al Jazeera writes that Trump's cabinet is "less hawkish" on Iran. The paper says that the US president has surrounded himself with supporters "possibly influencing his appetite for war" or his lack thereof. Al Jazeera writes that Trump's actions will reveal how the US president responds to the "deep ideological rift" within his Republican supporters. On the one hand are his "America First" supporters, who prioritise domestic policy and non-intervention. On the other are those who are more eager to pursue military intervention to force regime change abroad. The New York Times calls Trump's choice to intervene or not a "last-chance diplomacy or a bunker-busting bomb". The paper says that if Trump decides to get involved in the war, this will imperil any chance of a nuclear disarmament deal. The Times says that only America's "bunker buster" bomb can reach the nuclear enrichment facility at Fordow that Israel is trying to destroy. Launching it, however, would of course mean US involvement in the war. British daily The Guardian reports that a Democratic senator, Tim Kaine, has proposed to prohibit US forces from taking action against Iran without approval from Congress, in an effort to curb Trump's war powers. Staying with Trump, it seems that his family has another business venture on the way: this time, a mobile phone company. It's called "Trump Mobile" – a wireless service offer paired with a gold smartphone, as the Associated Press reports. The Trump company promises to have the phones ready by the summer. Trump's son Eric says that it's all about being patriotic, emphasising that the phones will the built in the US in the future. But The Wall Street Journal is sceptical, saying the phone cannot be made in the US for its announced price of $499 by August. The paper says that supply chain experts agree that because of Trump's tariffs, the US would need years and billions of dollars to establish factories that produce phone parts like those in China, and even if that's possible, the price would be many times higher than that of an iPhone, for instance. The tech magazine Wired has "9 urgent questions about Trump Mobile" – from privacy concerns to confusing promises. The final urgent question is "can you get a refund?"... and no, "you absolutely cannot", says the magazine that consulted Trump Mobile's terms of use.  Finally, a zoo in Miami is celebrating the world's oldest tortoise dad! He is 135 years old as he was born at the end of the 19th century. Goliath has gone through 25 American presidencies and two World Wars. He has now reached a new milestone – fatherhood – after unsuccessfully trying a couple of times before. Yogether with his girlfriend Sweet Pea – aged between 85 and 100 years old – they are the world's oldest tortoise parents. The Times reports that the couple is doing well after the birth, sharing a photo of the proud dad.

The Green party recently made renewed calls to the government to sanction Israel for its illegal occupation of Palestine following the seizure of the Madleen, a vessel that aimed to deliver food and medical aid to Gaza. The vessel, which was en route to Gaza, was intercepted in the Mediterranean by the Israeli Defence Forces before being rerouted to Israel with all those on board, among whom was Swedish activist Greta Thunberg. Earlier this week, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Immigration Minister Erica Stanford recently announced the Parent Boost Visa, part of the government's self-described commitment to supporting parents living overseas to visit and stay with their families here in Aotearoa. And, over in the United States, 2000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines have been deployed to Los Angeles in response to protests opposing the city's recent immigration raids.

Headlines: The fallout from Hunter Biden's pardon, biggest cocaine bust in Australian history sees 13 charged and Australia just sweltered through its hottest spring ever. Deep dive: 2024 has become the deadliest year for aid workers with harrowing risks of humanitarian work laid bare over the weekend. Aid workers from Save the Children and World Central Kitchen were killed in an Israeli Defence Forces airstrike in Gaza, prompting World Central Kitchen to halt operations after it destroyed one of its vehicles and killed three staff members. With Israel's new legislation banning the operation of the UN's Palestinian refugee agency in Israel and occupied territories by January 28, what happens to arguably the most oppressed and starving people in the world if aid workers can no longer help?

The total destruction of Gaza and the expulsion of its Palestinian inhabitants seems pretty much inevitable now, and while this suffering could not have happened without the actions of the Israeli Defence Forces, accusations for where ultimate responsibility lies have been thrown in all directions. As Piers Morgan Uncensored is a haven for freedom of speech, many points of view have been expressed on the show, and tonight, two of the most fervent supporters of each side, political scientist and pro-Palestine activist Norman Finkelstein and Israeli Special Envoy for Trade & Innovation Fleur Hassan, face off in the studio.Finkelstein lays out the scale of the destruction and death that has blighted Gaza, while Fleur pokes holes in nearly all of his claims. There are moments when Piers struggles to keep the peace between them, but at least the discussion is anything but dull. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Since October this year, as part of Israel's ongoing war in Gaza, Israeli Defence Forces have imposed a siege on the Northern Gaza Governate in the Gaza strip.  The IDF has designated the entire Northern half of Gaza as a combat zone, blocked the movement of all aid heading into the area and sent evacuation notices to all of Northern Gaza's Palestinian inhabitants, effectively declaring everyone in Northern Gaza to be an enemy combatant. Oto spoke to John Minto from Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa, to discuss the implications of Israel's ongoing siege of Northern Gaza for the area's Palestinian inhabitants. They also had a discussion about the implication of Donald Trump's election victory for the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories, as well as the media coverage of the clashes between locals in Amsterdam and supporters of the Israeli football team - Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Before the formation of the Israeli Defence Forces in 1948, there were three underground Zionist militias - The Haganah, the Irgun and the Lehi.They differed in tactics and beliefs, and at times fought with each other - but together they terrorised Palestinian villages and executed bombings and assassinations against the British to force them to give up control of the land.They blew up hotels in Jerusalem, embassies in Europe and assassinated a UN mediator.After Israel was officiated as a state - the three militias would create the IDF - and their leaders would go on to form Israel's government, become politicians, ambassadors and Prime Ministers.And their dark history would be forgotten. This week on The Big Picture, we unpack that history.We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode, and any guests you'd like us to have on our show.

Supported by airstrikes, these operations follow the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Lebanese health authorities are reporting 95 Lebanese have died in strikes on Monday, as 11 Palestinians were killed in central Gaza's Nuseirat refugee camp.

The Iranian-backed group Hezbollah has described its leader Hassan Nasrallah as a martyr and vowed to continue its battle against Israel. An Israeli Defence Forces spokesman said his death made the world "a safer place".

This week has been the deadliest for Lebanon in decades after sustained air strikes by Israel. Fears are growing for an all-out war between the two sides as the Israeli Defence Forces prepare for a possible ground incursion. It says its targeting Iran-backed Hizbullah and its arsenal of weapons. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insists the militant group has hidden missiles and rocket launchers in ordinary homes and has warned Lebanese civilians to leave if they want to save their lives. But who or what exactly is Hizbullah, why is Israel attacking its northern neighbour and where does this fit into the broader geopolitical tensions of the region? Sky News' Middle East correspondent, Alistair Bunkall, joins Bernice Harrison to explain the origin story of the Lebanese militia and political movement.Produced by Aideen Finnegan. Hosted on Acast.

At least 19 Palestinians have been killed by an Israeli attack in the crowded al-Mawasi refugee camp. The area had been designated a safe zone by the Israeli military. The attack left craters that were 30 feet deep and 50 feet wide, leading many to believe US-made 2,000 pound bombs were used.

On the 29th of August, TVNZ aired a news story covering the recent Israeli raids into the West Bank in Occupied Palestine, which they described as the “largest counter-terrorism strike” in the West Bank in 10 years.  The raid, which persisted for a week, killed at least 30 Palestinians, two of whom were confirmed to be children.  Many of those who witnessed the coverage said that this new story, like others by TVNZ, used biassed media framing to depict the Israeli Defence Forces favourably while ignoring Palestinian civilian casualties and the context of the occupation.  For this week's Get Action! Wednesday Wire host Oto spoke to Kareana Kee who launched a petition calling for TVNZ to review their coverage of Israel's war in Gaza.

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things for the Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.It's the 15th of May and here are today's headlines.Invalidating his arrest in a terror case, the Supreme Court today ordered the release of Newsclick founder-editor Prabir Purkayastha. The reason the court gave: the Delhi Police failed to inform Purkayastha the grounds of his arrest before taking him into custody. The ruling is significant because it emphasises that proper procedure and due process are the guardrails against arbitrary action, even in stringent terror cases. Purkayastha was arrested on 3rd of October 2023 by the Special Cell of the Delhi Police, who alleged that Newsclick received money for pro-China propaganda.One of the 14 people who were trapped after a lift collapsed at a copper mine in Rajasthan's Neem Ka Thana district passed away today, hours after all of them were rescued. Besides workers, members of a Vigilance team from Kolkata and senior officials of the Khetri Copper Corporation were also trapped following the collapse on Tuesday night. The incident took place in Hindustan Copper Limited's Kolihan mine, located in the Khetri area. Ambulances have been rushed to the spot and doctors have been asked to be prepared for any emergency.While reacting to the warning issued by the United States a day after India and Iran signed a 10-year contract to operate the strategic Iranian port of Chabahar,  External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar today, asserted that the agreement will benefit the entire region. He said, “We have a long association with the Chabahar port but we could never sign a long-term agreement. The reason being there were various problems on the Iranian end, it's a JV (joint venture), partners changed, conditions changed. Finally, we were able to sort this out and get the long-term agreement done. A long-term agreement is necessary, because without it, you cannot really improve the port operations, which we believe will benefit the entire region.” Unquote.Coming down heavily on the Uttarakhand government, the Supreme Court today said it was “at pains to say that the state's approach in controlling forest fires has been lackadaisical,”. It added that though action plans were prepared and finalised, no steps have been taken for their implementation. Hearing a plea raising the issue of forest fires in Uttarakhand, the top court also directed the Chief Secretary to be present before it on 17th of May. Flagging a huge vacancy in the state's forest department, the Supreme Court said the issue needs to be addressed.As Israel-Hamas war continues to rage on, the Israeli Defence Forces claimed to eliminate Hussain Ibrahim Mekky, a senior field commander in Hezbollah, by an IAF aircraft strike overnight. The IDF made the announcement in an 'operational update' on its official X handle and claimed that Mekky was responsible for "various acts of terrorism" against Israel. Mekky previously served as the commander of Hezbollah's forces in the coastal region, said the IDF post.This was the Catch-Up on the 3 Things by The Indian Express.

Air-dropped leaflets told Palestinians to leave ahead of a planned military operation. The Israeli Defence Forces directed civilians to an ‘expanded humanitarian area' in the coastal strip of Al-Mawasi. Aid agencies say there is not enough infrastructure to support the wave of displaced people, and many fear the order marks the beginning of a major Israeli offensive in Rafah.

In early April, after Israeli troops withdrew from the area surrounding the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, Palestinian recovery teams were able to assess the destruction. And just last week, mass graves were uncovered on the hospital grounds. There's been similar reports at Al-Shifa hospital in Northern Gaza as well.United Nations officials are calling for independent investigations into the matter. A statement by the Israeli Defence Forces has said accusations that they had buried the bodies were "baseless and unfounded".Freelance journalist Akram Al-Sattari has been reporting from the grounds of the Nasser Medical Complex. He spoke to Front Burner about what he witnessed.

The United States is reportedly considering its first sanctions against an Israeli Defence Forces unit over allegations of rights abuses in the West Bank. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he will fight any such measures, using his Passover address to pledge to secure the release of the remaining hostages in Gaza.

Two Australians missing after an earthquake in Taiwan; Israeli Defence Forces say an investigation into the deaths of seven aid workers has concluded; And in sport, AFL's Gather Round resumes today in South Australia.

US President Joe Biden says he is "outraged and heartbroken" following Israel's killing of seven humanitarian aid workers in Gaza this week. In a highly critical statement, the President said Israel had not done enough to protect aid workers and the investigation into their deaths "must bring accountability". According to Israeli sources, the aid convoy hit in Gaza on Monday night was deliberately targeted by the Israeli Defence Forces, though they claim they thought it was something else. It puts the continued provision of humanitarian aid in the enclave in serious jeopardy, with a number of NGOs suspending operations. Tel Aviv correspondent Sarah Coates spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Israel says its special forces are carrying out a targeted operation inside the main hospital in the besieged Gazan city of Khan Younis. Medics inside Nasser Hospital say Israeli forces fired into the hospital, killing a patient and injuring several others. A doctor at the hospital says the situation is escalating 'every hour and every minute'. Video footage from the scene shows medics rushing with patients on stretchers through a smoke-filled corridor while gunshots ring out in the background. A spokesperson for the Israeli Defence Forces, Daniel Hagari, said they'd received information that Hamas had held hostages in Nasser hospital. Our correspondent in Tel Aviv, Sarah Coates, spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered troops to prepare to enter the overcrowded Gazan city of Rafah. Concerns are mounting, for the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who have sought refuge in Rafah. To discuss Israel's actions, spokesperson for the Israeli Defence Forces Liutenant Colonel Peter Lerner.

The Israeli Defence Forces deny targeting civilians in Gaza and insist they take all practical measures to protect non-combatants in a war where their enemy, Hamas, hides among the civilian population. But Israeli intelligence sources told journalist Yuval Abraham that the tactics now being used in Gaza are much looser than they were in previous conflicts and are contributing to a huge number of civilian deaths, often in inexplicable circumstances. Yuval talks to Sorcha Pollak about how concepts like "power targets" and AI technology are defining the war in Gaza and increasing the danger for civilians. Hosted on Acast.

Hilary Blackerby What do a dance teacher, a pastor, a community advocate, and a home care worker have in common? If you said they all could be allies to those with disabilities, you're right!       Rev. Dr. David Moore Jr. On this episode of Pushing Limits we will be talking to individuals with those labels – all of whom work to support and empower those with disabilities. Hannah Jo Karpilow                     Join us for a journey into the mind of these allies to find out what motivates them to be in solidarity with those with disabilities, and get tips on how to join them in this important work. Reports on People with Disabilities and the Israel-Palestine conflict (From DisabilityDebrief.org by Peter Torres Fremlin) Eric Kupers From Palestine, there's relatively extensive coverage of the situations of disabled people in Gaza. Maha Hussaini, a Gazan journalist, writes about families trying to get out with disabled people after losing their homes. CNN reports on a range of struggles including the impossible dilemma of a director of an orphanage for disabled people: “Where will I leave these children, on the street?” As well as the investigation from Human Rights Watch, Time has explored the additional barriers disabled people are facing in conflict. Aljazeera offers some short videos on the hardship faced and the experience of a deaf couple: “The planes bomb us. We are deaf so it scares us. There is no one to help us and [we] cannot hear.” For more of Peter's news on Palestine go here. In Israel, one estimate suggests over 50,000 people with disabilities have been evacuated from areas close to the border, to get further from rocket fire. The war is challenging for disabled people, but one hotel is hosting disabled and elderly evacuees for free, and the Shalva National Center has also become a refuge. The so-called “Special in Uniform” unit of the Israeli Defence Forces have been packing and distributing supplies. For more of Peter's news on Israel, go here.

Forty one days into Israel's attack on the Gaza Strip has seen the Israeli Defence Forces inflict immense damage on Palestinian civilians. The death toll now stands at 14,000, meaning a staggering 1 out of 200 people in Gaza are now dead.For Scroll Ideas, Shoaib Daniyal spoke to the Palestinian ambassador to India, Adnan Abu Alhaijaa, at the Palestinian Embassy in Delhi to understand the scale of the destruction as well as the part he wanted India to play.The ambassador highlighted India's historic role as a friend of Palestine. He also urged the Indian government to be a mediator between Israel and Palestine and put pressure on the Israeli government to declare a ceasefire. Host: Shoaib Daniyal Producer: Avinash Kumar

The Israeli Defence Forces have denied accusations of striking the largest hospital in the city of Gaza but confirm there are clashes with Hamas militants in the area, prompting civilians to leave. Meanwhile, during a summit in Saudi Arabia, the leaders of the Arab world have rejected Israel's justification of self-defence and called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

Since the Hamas attacks on Israel on 7 October, thousands of lives have been lost in the war. While rolling news and live updates give us minute by minute coverage, we want to take the opportunity to pause, reflect and hear stories from the families of a few of those killed. Last week we heard from Palestinians. This time, Israeli families share their experiences and memories of those lost. During the surprise raid on Israel, Hamas killed 1400 people and took more than 200 hostages, including children. Keren and her husband Avidor were rescued that day, under gunfire, from the Kibbutz Kfar Azar. But a few days after, the family heard that both Keren's parents, Cindy and Igal, had been killed. “She was just the biggest soul,” says Keren of her mother. “She was a humanitarian through and through, she was just all heart.” Host James Reynolds also speaks to Magen, a teacher from Israel who lives in London. His parents, Yakov and Bilha, were both killed in the attack. We bring Magen together with Elana, the mother of Yannai who was serving as a trainer in the Israeli Defence Forces. Yannai was killed defending his base, helping to save the lives of dozens of other young men and women. He would have celebrated his 21st birthday on the day before we spoke.

The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza is reporting that the number of people killed during Israel's military operations has now surpassed 11,000, with many of them being women and children. Reports say the Israeli Defence Forces are operating around hospitals in Gaza, claiming they are being "strategically used" by Hamas.

Atalya Ben-Abba is an Israeli conscientious objector: as a teenager, she was sent to prison for refusing to serve in the Israeli Defence Forces because of her opposition to the occupation. Now she's calling for a ceasefire - and the least we can do in response to her courage is to stand by her.Please sign her petition here: https://www.anothereurope.org/petitions/ceasefire-now/ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast.

This week we're going to again use the midweek podcast to focus on Gaza. Events there are simply too important for us not to address and things are developing, the conflict there is likely to be every bit as significant for global politics as the war in Ukraine. Saul and Patrick consider the options open to the Israeli Defence Forces in what can only be a fiendishly difficult operation before going on to look at the possibility of the Israel-Hamas conflict exploding into a regional war with all the dangers that will bring with it.

Right now, Israel is mobilising for a full-scale war in response to an offensive by Hamas. Netanyahu has vowed to turn Gaza, with its population of 2.3 million people, into a deserted island, and Israeli politicians are openly calling for another Nakba — referring to the genocidal massacres in 1948 which marked the beginning of Israel's occupation of Palestine. Western politicians are lining up to pledge their support for Israel's “right to defend itself”. The US has sent an aircraft carrier to aid Israel, and Biden has taken this opportunity to rally support for Western imperialism & funding for the Israeli Defence Forces.  Chloe spoke to Omar Hassan about the history of military occupation and genocide from 1948 to today, and why the left must stand with Palestine. Omar is a socialist from Melbourne, a long-time Palestine solidarity activist and editor of the Marxist Left Review.     Join the solidarity protests: Sydney Sunday Oct 15, 1PM Hyde Park https://facebook.com/events/s/stop-the-war-on-gaza-free-pale/237050879370266/ Melbourne Sunday Oct 15, 12PM State Library https://facebook.com/events/s/palestine-rally-end-the-siege-/621858313442265/ Canberra Friday Oct 13, 5:30PM Garema Place https://facebook.com/events/s/stand-with-palestine-no-war-on/2258919267638772/ Adelaide Sunday Oct 15, 2:00pm SA Parliament House https://facebook.com/events/s/solidarity-with-palestine-no-w/7143090389076667/ Brisbane Friday Oct 13, 6:00pm King George Square https://facebook.com/events/s/no-war-on-gaza-solidarity-with/884972343033190/ Perth Friday Oct 13, 5:30pm Murray St Mall https://facebook.com/events/s/rally-for-palestine-no-war-on-/1046067476425215/ Wollongong Sat Oct 14, 1:00pm MacCabe Park https://facebook.com/events/s/wollongong-rally-free-palestin/1951351455251789/ Further readings: Check out the War on Palestine section of the Red Flag website: https://redflag.org.au/category/palestine

Lieutenant Masha Michelson, Spokesperson for the Israeli Defence Forces, on the escalating conflict in Israel and Gaza.

Thousands gather in the streets of Jenin to mourn the twelve people killed by an Israeli attack. Widespread destruction of the city left burnt out cars, smashed windows and houses turned upside down. One doctor in Jenin tells us about the patients he's been treating. And we hear why the operation took place from the spokesperson of the Israeli Defence Forces, Richard Hecht. Also in the programme: Colombia reaches a ceasefire deal after decades of conflict with a the country's biggest guerrilla; and is it safe to dump the wastewater of Fukushima into the Pacific Ocean? (Picture: A view of a mass grave at the funeral of Palestinians killed during an Israeli military operation, in Jenin. Credit: Yosri Aljamal, Reuters).

Violence continues in the Palestinian town of Jenin and its refugee camp after Israeli Defence Forces started an operation they claim is aimed at stopping terrorist activity in the area. The operation caused at least eight deaths and has been called the largest in twenty years, and was opposed by a local militant group called the Jenin Brigade. Israel claims a link with Iran - which the Iranian government denies.

This week I'm talking to retired Lt Col. in the Israeli Defence Forces, Eyal Dror. Eyal served in the IDF for 24 years, the majority of which in coordination units working with the Palestinian population. In 2016 he established and commanded the "Good Neighbor" Unit, which managed the humanitarian aid given to civilian victims of the Syrian Civil War. Operation Good Neighbor carried out ~700 humanitarian aid operations on a hostile border controlled by terrorist organizations such as ISIS, Al-Qaeda and Hezbollah. In collaboration with Christian and Muslim organisations, he helped shape a different reality across the border and created, for the first time, an independent collaboration with Syrian citizens who had spent their lives being taught to hate Israelis. This is a deep chat into a world most people know very little about, yet still take it upon themselves to voice an opinion. Eyal has an incredible outlook - that this never-ending conflict between Israelis and Palestinians is actually not a conflict between Israeli and Palestinian people, but between governments or political groups. Eyal's message at its core is that dialogue is the most effective path to peace, and we should always strive to build dialogue whenever we can.

Dafna Tachover is an attorney with an MBA who holds an extensive international legal and business career as well as a technology background from her service as a Telecommunication and Computers Officer in the Israeli Defence Forces, where she served as the commander of the computer centre of the Operations Centre and Headquarters. In 2009, Dafna developed microwave sickness, a condition caused by exposure to wireless technology radiation. Since then, she has dedicated herself to creating change and exposing the widespread illness that has already resulted from exposure to this ubiquitous form of radiation. As a leading advocate against 5G and an expert on the health effects of wireless technology radiation, Dafna is the CHD Senior Attorney and Director of the 5G program leading the U.S battle to derail Big Telecom's craven scheme to irradiate our children.  Dafna lead a legal case against the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The case challenged the agency's refusal to review its 25-year-old obsolete wireless “health guidelines” and adopt scientific, biologically based radio frequency emissions rules that adequately protect public health. The Children's Health Defense legal brief proves that scientific and human evidence of harm from wireless and 5G was presented to the FCC, but the agency ignored it. Therefore, its decision not to review the “health guidelines” is capricious, arbitrary, not evidence-based, and an abuse of discretion. In this eye-opening interview, Dafna reveals what she believes is the biggest lie ever told, what we need to understand about 5G that governments, Big Telco and mainstream media are not telling us, a deep dive into how, why and the evidence that proves the ‘safety' test on mobile phones is rigged and why she believes the tipping point is near.  Show Notes: 5:60 - 5G is not a technology – it's an infrastructure enabling AI, transhumanism, surveillance and the Internet of Things (IoT). 10:50 – 5G End Game, is it mainly about data? 22:00 – Mobile phones are tested on a plastic dummy to measure thermal effects - does it have validity? 32:46 – Microwave sickness – we are the evidence,  our population is sick! 42:00 - Our body is attacked by numerous devices and artificial frequencies -  our body have zero chance to adapt to this kind of attack on our systems. Learn more about Dafna and her personal story from We Are The Evidence, an advocacy group that seeks to protect the rights of the many people injured by wireless technology radiation, including children.  For more information on how to stay human in a technology-obsessed world, check out We Are Not SAM.

Israel's military says the tower block housed assets belonging to the Hamas militant group, which has been denied by the building's landlord. In addition, at least 10 people, including eight children, are killed in an Israeli airstrike on a refugee camp in Gaza, officials say. We hear from a neighbour of the family killed in the strike. Hamas responds by firing dozens of rockets at cities in Israel, killing one man near Tel Aviv. We also hear from the international spokesman for the Israeli Defence Forces. Also on the programme: Myanmar's National Unity Government, made up of politicians opposed to the military coup, calls for outside intervention in the small town of Mindat in Chin State, where a local armed opposition group is fighting the army; and the British sociological study known as Mass Observation which asks people to record a diary entry for one day a year - May the twelfth - putting down their thoughts and feelings however they choose.

As missiles have rained down on Gaza and on Israel, violence at street level has also been at its worst for years. There have been clashes between Arab and Jewish citizens of Israel within Israel’s own borders. There have been confrontations between security forces and Palestinians in the West Bank. On a far greater scale, Gaza has been under heavy rocket fire as the Israeli Defence Forces struck back against what they identify as control centres for Hamas. Jeremy Bowen weighs up the damage. In Brazil, Congress is conducting an inquiry into the government’s handling of the pandemic. But the president still has keen backers, who admire his energy and instinct for confrontation. Mark Lowen is just back from Brazil and reflects on Jair Bolsonaro's playbook - and its echoes of another leader whose tactics he knows well. The number of boats carrying migrants keen to reach the shores of Europe is on the rise again. Enforcement is stricter across the Mediterranean so other routes are getting busier. But the journey via the Atlantic and Spain’s Canary Islands can be lethal. Bruno Boelpaep reports on a tragedy at sea and a moving reunion. Mexico’s Sea of Cortez is home to the most critically endangered sea mammal on earth: a small porpoise called the vaquita . There are fewer than a dozen left and they risk getting tangled in the nets cast out for fish. Those fish, in turn, are also under threat – even though they’re legally protected. Linda Pressly saw the pressures at work in the town of San Felipe. And a historic collection of ancient Greek and Roman sculpture is back on public view for the first time in decades. The new display of the Torlonia marbles delighted David Willey, who has lived in Rome for nearly fifty years. He remembers them looking rather different… Producer: Polly Hope

On this week's episode of the SaaS Revolution Show, we host Dan Adika, CEO and Co-Founder of WalkMe about how he has raised the whopping $217 million in the past 7 years. Dan follows a somewhat familiar path that has bread many excellent Israeli entrepreneurs. He spent 6 years working for tech unit of the Israeli Defence Forces. He then had a year in HP, before realizing that to truly follow his passion for making things, improving them, all the while solving some thorny problems, he had to build his own company. In 2011 Dan did just that. Together with his co-founders Eyal Cohen and Rephael Sweary they started WalkMe. In February 2012, the three raised their first round of funding that wasn't coming from friends and family. There were no customers at the time but there was a dream, a bold one - allow people to “walk” the digital world, the way they did the physical one. That bold dream would not always be enough to convince funders but for those times, Dan and his co-founders learned the art of metrics, benchmarks and the data that matters, and have gone through six funding rounds, which have all been very different. How have they done it each time? That's the topic of our conversation today. Listen on to hear: What are the key things to understand as a founder if you want to go on the funding path? How they managed to raise their most pivotal Series round C when everyone was saying no to them? The art of showing the right data to investors? Dan Adika will be joining us at SaaStock West Coast on September 11th, where he will be sharing how he has grown WalkMe to 800 employees and $100m+ ARR and the mistakes he has made when it comes to hiring and culture. He will be joined by a roster of spectacular speakers such as Dan Martel, Nathan Latka, Leela Srinivasan, Sarika Garg that will be providing actionable lessons for growth stage saas companies on how to scale. Check out the full list of speakers and what you can expect to learn from them on our blog. We have very few tickets remaining for SaaStock West Coast so be sure to grab yours now.

  How does Israel's approach to public security differ from that of the USA and Western Europe? What can we learn? Today, we explore public security, terrorism, body language, mindset and more. My guest is Eldor Arbel. Eldor is the CEO of Arbel Consulting and Training. He brings a unique perspective to security – “security from the inside out”. This isn't surprising considering Eldor is an Israeli national living in London, spend four years in the Israeli Defence Forces and has worked for many years in the private security industry in the country. Israel of course, has had to deal with terrorism for decades. I was interested in Eldor's take on how countries like the UK and USA deal with terrorism and security. We get into this (and if you follow the podcast you know I thinke that we overestimate the chances of a terror attack). However, this is a conversation about much more than this we get into: Eldor's time in the Israeli Defence Forces; The private security sector in Israel; Terrorism and other types of security threats; Eldor's security philosophy, including: Mindset; Normalcy bias; Behaviour detection; Body language; Security versus freedom; The training AC&T offers, including the very interesting “Confined Spaces Training” Loads more!
