WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden says the sudden collapse of the Syrian government under Bashar Assad is a “fundamental act of justice” after decades of repression, but that it's “a moment of risk and uncertainty” for the Mideast. Speaking at the White House on Sunday, Biden credited action by the U.S. and its allies for weakening Syria's backers — Russia, Iran and Hezbollah. DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Russia media say ousted Syrian leader Bashar Assad has fled to Moscow and received asylum from his longtime ally. The reports came hours after a stunning rebel advance swept into Damascus to cheers and ended the Assad family’s 50 years of iron rule. WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump says he can’t guarantee his promised tariffs on key U.S. foreign trade partners won’t raise prices for American consumers. And he's suggesting once more that some political rivals and federal officials who pursued legal cases against him should be imprisoned. The president-elect made the comments in a wide-ranging interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press” that aired Sunday. NEW YORK (AP) — Police don’t know who he is, where he is, or why he did it. As the frustrating search for UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s killer got underway for a fifth day Sunday, investigators reckoned with a tantalizing contradiction: They have troves of evidence, but the shooter remains an enigma. One conclusion they are confident of, however: It was a targeted attack, not a random one. ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Officials says two Turkish military helicopters have collided in midair, causing one of them to crash. Monday's crash in the southwestern province of Isparta left six military personnel dead, including one who died of injuries in a hospital. IZIUM, Ukraine (AP) — A volunteer group is trying to fulfill the holiday dreams of thousands of children living near the frontlines in Ukraine.

Soon after a fuel spill occurred close to the Navy's main drinking water system at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, base leadership assured thousands of families in military housing that their tap water was safe. Parents later learned the truth: the water they drank or used to bathe their children was contaminated with jet fuel. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi tours the once secret fuel storage site where the water crisis at Pearl Harbor began and meets military families who blame their health problems on the Navy's response to the spill.

Neste episódio, Roberto Nonato expõe o cenário atual da guerra entre Rússia e Ucrânia ao lado de Américo Martins, enviado especial para a Ucrânia, e de Mathias Brotero, repórter que acompanhou o mês inicial do conflito diretamente do Leste Europeu. Américo Martins passou por Kiev, capital da Ucrânia, e depois ficou baseado em Kharkiv, segunda maior cidade do país, a 40km da Rússia. De lá, visitou Izium, totalmente destruída pela guerra; esteve em trincheiras em Kupiansk, local inicialmente tomado por Moscou e depois recuperado pela Ucrânia; e um posto avançado a 700m da fronteira com a Rússia, onde vivenciou o dia a dia dos soldados que se arriscam na linha de frente. Já Mathias Brotero estava em Kiev no dia em que o presidente russo, Vladimir Putin, autorizou o que ele chamava de “operação militar especial” no território ucraniano, em 24 de fevereiro de 2022. O repórter também passou alguns dias na Polônia, acompanhando a crise migratória gerada pela fuga de milhões de refugiados.

One year has passed since Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The conflict has unleashed unspeakable violence, killing hundreds of thousands of people, displacing millions from their homes, and inflicting untold suffering. And the war's impact on Ukraine's more-than-human life is just as unfathomable and long-lasting. In the face of such impossible reckoning, author Anna Badhken brings together a compilation of vignettes by journalists, poets, and environmentalists in close proximity to the war. From the radioactive Red Forest of Chernobyl's Nuclear Exclusion Zone, to the liberated but heavily-mined Izium and the fragile ecosystems of the Ukrainian steppes, “The Fallout”' coalesces into what Anna calls “a schrapneled bearing in time” and makes visible a landscape fractured, disoriented, and deeply harmed.

The UN climate conference wrapped up this weekend. And for the first time, wealthier nations have agreed to pay for damage caused by climate change in developing countries. Though the devil is in the details, nations feeling the environmental impacts say just agreeing to find a framework for "loss and damage" funding is still a big step forward. Also, Russian forces buried around 400 Ukrainians in a mass grave in a forest near the city of Izium in northeastern Ukraine. Authorities are trying to piece together what happened there. And, who's going to win the World Cup? An Oxford mathematician has a pretty good guess. Plus, a musician's mission for the LGBTQ community in Brazil. Murder rates of trans and queer people in Brazil are among the highest in the world, and Bia Ferreira wants to inform and protect the LGBTQ community there.

The city of Izium in northeastern Ukraine was under Russian occupation for about six months. In September, Ukrainian forces managed to liberate the city, but the hard work of bringing it back to normal has only begun. And Chinese President Xi Jinping is reentering the international stage at the G-20 summit. It's his first trip abroad in three years and comes after he secured a historic third term as China's president. Also, at the UN climate summit in Egypt this week, developing countries are pushing to double the funding for climate adaptation, debt relief and changes to the global financial system.

The battle for Kherson will represent a significant bellwether in the current phase of the Ukraine conflict. Russia's best troops and equipment are stationed there. If they dissolve, as have other fronts in recent weeks, not only does this have significant implications for Russia itself but the capture of advanced Russian equipment by Kyiv's forces will represent a larger and more significant transfer than nearly anything NATO has provided up to this point. 00:00:00 Peter Zeihan 00:02:16 Ben Hodges 00:11:30 End ✔ https://geonow.substack.com/ ✅ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3slupxs

Ukraine surprised both Russia and the world last week with sharp counter offensives in the northeast that have retaken land occupied by Russian troops. Ukrainian forces liberating these areas have discovered not only hastily abandoned Russian outposts, but also further signs of war crimes: outside the town of Izium, a mass grave containing over 400 bodies, primarily civilians, some bearing evidence of torture, is in the process of being exhumed. As winter approaches, both sides of the war hope to make decisive progress and the United States on Friday pledged an additional $600 million to assist Ukraine. We'll talk about where the war stands.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - A Vatican envoy in Ukraine prayed in silence at the recently discovered mass grave in Izium on Monday while forensic experts in white protective suits exhumed bodies, at least 146 so far. Cardinal Konrad Krajewski said during his visit to the grave site on September 19 that “seeing so many [dead] in one area is a difficult thing … to explain.” “The words of Sacred Scripture came to mind that evil must always be overcome with good,” he told Vatican News. It is the Polish cardinal's fourth trip to Ukraine since the start of the war. Pope Francis sent the cardinal as his personal representative to “be with the people who are suffering.” https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/252338/cardinal-konrad-krajewski-prays-at-mass-grave-in-ukraine The Synod on Synodality has thus far demonstrated the “joys, hopes, and wounds” shared by members of the Church in the United States, according to a report on the process issued Monday. “These consultations express a deep desire for greater communion,” read the US Conference of Catholic Bishops' National Synthesis document, released September 19. The fruit of consultation in the Latin-rite dioceses in the U.S, as well as Catholic associations, organizations, and national ministries, the synthesis noted several themes: enduring wounds, especially those inflicted by the sexual abuse crisis; enhancing communion and participation in the life of the Church; ongoing formation for mission; and engaging discernment. According to the report, about 700,000 people participated in the diocesan phase of the synod in the U.S., out of 66.8 million Catholics in the country. The report can be read on the USCCB website. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/252336/us-synod-synthesis-shows-desire-for-greater-communion Today, the Church celebrates Saints Andrew Kim Taegon and Paul Chong Hasañg, who were leaders of the Catholic Church in Korea. Andrew Kim Taegon was born to Korean nobility, and his parents converted when he was 15-years old. He traveled over 1000 miles to study in a seminary and became the first native Korean priest. He was tortured and beheaded in 1846. Paul Choñg Hasang was a Korean Catholic lay leader who defended the faith before the government of Korea, and reunited the Christians in the midst of the persecutions, encouraging them to stay strong in the faith. In response to his direct appeals, the Pope, Gregory the tenth, confirmed the validity of the Korean Church and sent more priests to Korea. He was martyred in 1839. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/saint/sts-andrew-kim-taegon-paul-chong-ha-600

We talk to Emmanuelle Chaze, political correspondent with Deutsche Welle, who visited the mass grave site at Izium.
First, Jake goes one-on-one with New York City Mayor Eric Adams. He says his city is “nearing its breaking point” and accuses Republican governors of creating a “humanitarian crisis” by sending thousands of migrants to New York from the southern border.Next, Jake presses Republican Senator Mike Rounds over Republican governors' treatment of migrants. They also discuss whether Senator Rounds supports Senator Graham's proposed national 15-week abortion ban bill that has split the GOP. After, Jake speaks with US Ambassador to the United Nations, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, about President Biden's warning to Russia on using chemical weapons against Ukraine and what a “consequential” US response might look like. Jake also asks Ambassador Thomas-Greenfield if the discovery of 440 unmarked graves found in the recaptured city of Izium by Ukrainian officials is evidence of further war crimes by Russia. Finally, CNN Global Affairs Analyst Susan Glasser joins the panel to give a preview of her new book “The Divider”, which gives fresh insights into former President Trump's time in office and his plans for the future.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy
La contraofensiva ucraniana que arrancó hace dos semanas supone el mayor revés ruso desde que, a finales de marzo, Vladimir Putin dio órdenes de olvidarse de Kiev y concentrarse en el este del país para, desde allí, reorganizar las operaciones y avanzar como una apisonadora sobre Ucrania desde las bases seguras de Crimea y el Donbás. Ese avance nunca se produjo. De abril a agosto el ejército ruso pudo hacerse con tal sólo unos centenares de kilómetros cuadrados y sólo tras emplear mucha fuerza y un número considerable de hombres, armas y municiones. El contraataque de estas dos últimas semanas ha liberado más de 6.000 kilómetros cuadrados, mucho más de lo que Rusia había ganado en los meses anteriores. En el camino el ejército ucraniano se ha apoderado de un gran número de armas y municiones que los rusos fueron dejando atrás cuando se retiraban desordenadamente. Ucrania también ha recuperado dos ciudades: Izium y Kupiansk, que eran fundamentales en el norte del Donbás. Allí Putin quería organizar dos referéndums para anexionarse toda la región, ahora lo tendrá mucho más complicado ya que tiene primero que poner orden y articular una respuesta. Hacer predicciones en una guerra es siempre arriesgado, pero la marea parece haber cambiado, al menos con lo que sabemos ahora y tal y como ha quedado configurado el teatro de operaciones. El éxito de las fuerzas armadas ucranianas descansa, como ya veíamos la semana pasada en La ContraCrónica, en la asombrosa motivación de sus tropas y en el uso de material bélico de primera categoría llegado desde Occidente. A ambas ventajas se ha añadido una tercera inesperada: el pésimo desempeño del ejército ruso sobre el terreno. Gracias a las armas que han recibido de Europa occidental y Estados Unidos, Ucrania puede ver y atacar con gran precisión a los rusos en la retaguardia. Les han volado depósitos de municiones, centros de operaciones y nudos ferroviarios. Rusia ni siquiera ha podido oponer su superioridad en el aire porque la defensa antiaérea ucraniana no ha hecho más que mejorar. La victoria de Ucrania no es ni mucho menos segura, pero es posible, algo que no se podía afirmar hace sólo un mes. Expulsar a Rusia por completo del territorio ucraniano será una tarea difícil y prolongada para la que hará falta mucha determinación y esfuerzo. Podría colapsar el ejército ruso, pero esto es algo que no parece probable. Queda mucha guerra por delante, pero la iniciativa ahora la tiene Ucrania por primera vez desde que el conflicto empezó en la última semana de febrero. Para hablar de esto con más profundidad he invitado a La ContraCrónica a Nicolás de Pedro, un analista español especializado en Rusia y en todo el espacio postsoviético. Nicolás es Senior Fellow en el Institute for Statecraft de Londres, profesor de Relaciones Internacionales en el Instituto de Estudios Internacionales de Barcelona y un verdadero experto en todo lo relacionado con Rusia. Hacía tiempo que quería traerle al programa porque me parece que es la persona que mejor estudiada tiene la guerra de Ucrania en lengua española.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall. * Inniu an 17ú de mhí Mheán Fómhair. Is mise Niall Ó Cuileagáin. D'fhógair Uachtarán na hÚcráine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, gur éirigh lena chuid fórsaí frithionsaí a dhéanamh i gcoinne na Rúise in oirthuaisceart na hÚcráine Dé Luain. Dúirt arm na hÚcráine go bhfuil níos mó ná fiche baile athghafa acu, Izium ina measc, cathair thábhachtach agus straitéiseach sa chogadh. D'admhaigh Moscó go bhfuil go leor talún caillte acu agus d'fhreagair siad an frithionsaí le hionsaithe ar infreastruchtúr aibhléise san Úcráin. De réir saineolaithe, is athrú mór é an frithionsaí i scéal an chogaidh. Tuairiscítear go bhfuil trúpaí na Rúise in ísle brí agus ag teitheadh ó bhailte. Le linn an ama seo, cloistear cáineadh déanta ar Putin sa Rúis, rud an-annamh agus contúirteach faoi láthair. Rinne an Rí Séarlas turas timpeall na Ríochta Aonaithe le linn na seachtaine. Chuaigh sé go Caisleán Chromghlinne sa Tuaisceart, áit ar chuir Michelle O'Neill, Leas-Uachtarán Shinn Féin, fáilte roimhe. Bhí an tUachtarán Micheál D. Ó hUigínn agus an Taoiseach Micheál Martin i láthair ag searmanas i mBéal Feirste sa tráthnóna. Tá an Bhanríon Éilís ina luí faoi ghradam stáit i Halla Westminster faoi láthair go dtí a sochraid maidin Dé Luain. Tá scuainí fada ar na sráideanna i Londain agus daoine ag fanacht chun ómós a léiriú don Bhanríon. Tá an áit oscailte 24 uair an chloig chun deis a thabhairt do dhaoine an cónra a fheiceáil. Níl an ócáid gan chonspóid, áfach. Rinneadh cáineadh ar phóilíní i Sasana nuair a ghabh siad daoine a bhí ag agóid i gcoinne na monarcachta. Bhí iontas ann freisin nuair a nochtadh nach n-íocfadh an Rí cáin oidhreachta. Fuair an stiúrthóir scannán Jean-Luc Godard bás Dé Máirt. Tá Godard ar dhuine de na stiúrthóirí is tábhachtaí i stair na scannánaíochta. Rugadh san Eilvéis é in 1930 agus fuair sé bás trí fhéinmharú cuidithe; dúirt a theaghlach go raibh sé ag fulaingt mar gheall ar thinnis iomadúla. Tá clú ar Godard de bharr a chuid scannán ó na seascaidí, go háirithe na scannáin À Bout de Souffle, Le Mépris agus Pierrot le Fou. Ba stiúrthóir turgnamhach é Godard, díreach go dtí deireadh a shaoil; mar shampla, bhuaigh sé an duais in Cannes dá scannán Adieu au Langage agus é ceithre bliana is ochtó d'aois. Dúirt Martin Scorcese gur athraigh Godard an smaoineamh a bhí againn faoi scannáin agus nach raibh stiúrthóir ar bith chomh misniúil is a bhí Godard. * Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Earlier this week, mass graves were discovered in the newly liberated town of Izium, in northeast Ukraine. Over 400 bodies have been found since Russian troops retreated. And an estimated 1.5 million carnations from Turkey's southern Isparta region will be sent to the United Kingdom during the mourning period for the late queen — double the usual number. Also, the weeklong EuroPride event includes a final Pride March to be held in Serbia this weekend. But the Serbian government and police force have worked to ban it over the past couple of weeks. Plus, catastrophic flooding in Pakistan has left at least 1,500 people dead and a half a million homeless. Volunteer groups there have been stepping up to aid survivors.
A gruesome scene played out in Ukraine on Friday as authorities began examining bodies buried in what Kyiv calls the largest mass grave of the war. It was discovered near the city of Izium which is in the Kharkiv region just liberated from Russian occupation. Nick Schifrin reports from Ukraine.

This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Tuesday, September 13th, 2022. I hope you all had a restful weekend with your loved ones, so without further adieu, let me remind you about our conference! FLF Conference Plug Do you like Jesus & beer? Then you and your family need to come to the Fight Laugh Feast Conference in Knoxville Tennessee, on October 6-8. The topic of this conference is Lies, Propaganda, storytelling, and the serrated edge. Satan is the father of lies, and the mother of those lies is a government that has rejected God. Christians haven’t been reading their Bibles, so we as a society are more susceptible than ever to satan and his lies. So join us, October 6-8, as we fight, laugh, and feast, with beer & psalms, our amazing lineup of speakers, including Pastor Doug Wilson, George Gilder, and Pastor Toby Sumpter, and more… AND, stuff for the kids too, like jumpy castles, and accidental infant baptisms! Sign up to attend with you and yours, or become a vendor at fightlaughfeast.com. Alright, now let’s get to the news! https://reason.com/2022/09/12/americans-spent-more-on-taxes-last-year-than-on-food-health-care-education-and-clothing-combined/ Americans Spent More on Taxes Last Year Than on Food, Health Care, Education, and Clothing Combined Yikes. New consumer spending data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) provides some sobering perspective on how much Americans are paying in taxes. The data covers consumer spending across a wide variety of categories in 2021. Overall, taxes accounted for about 25 percent of average consumer spending. The BLS measures spending per "consumer unit," which it describes as "either (1) all members of a particular household who are related by blood, marriage, adoption or other legal arrangements; (2) persons living alone or sharing a household with others or living as a roomer in a private home or lodging house or in a permanent living quarters in a hotel or motel, but who is financially independent; or (3) two or more person living together who use their income to make joint expenditure decisions." On average, each "consumer unit" paid more than $16,000 in taxes last year. This outpaces average spending on food, clothing, education, and health care combined. The mean for total spending per unit on health care, food, education, and clothing was $16,721.42. This included an average of $8,289.28 on food, $5,451.61 on health care, $1,226.14 on education, and $1,754.39 on apparel. The mean for total spending per unit on taxes was $16,729.73. This included $8,561.46 in federal income tax, $2,564.14 in state and local income taxes, $2,475.18 in property taxes, $5,565.45 in Social Security deductions, and $105.21 in other taxes, offset by an average stimulus payment of $2,541.71. In addition to this disturbing tidbit, the new BLS data contains a wealth of other information on American spending habits and offers an interesting glimpse at recovery—and inflation—during the second year of the coronavirus pandemic. The highest expenditure category was housing, at an average $22,623.55 per consumer unit (including property taxes). Major spending categories aside from housing, food, health care, education, and clothing included transportation ($10,961.18), utilities/fuels/public services ($4,223.49), entertainment ($3,567.89), household operations ($1,638.42), and personal care products and services ($770.51). A lot of numbers for you guys on that one… moving on: https://thepostmillennial.com/Sex-traffickers-nabbed-in-florida-sting-include-disney-employees-police-deputy?utm_campaign=64487 Sex traffickers nabbed in Florida sting include Disney employees, police deputy A Florida sex trafficking sting known as "Operation Fall Haul II" captured a 160 culprits this week with a list that included several Disney employees, a teacher, and Georgia Deputy Police Chief Jason DiPrima. According to local news, DiPrima was considered an up-and-comer in the Georgia force and Sheriff Grady Judd, who ran the sting, said, "If all else fails, he could write a book, 'How to Ruin Your Career in Three Easy Steps.'" The sting operation started on August 29, lasted one week, and was a multi-agency effort led by the Polk County Sheriff’s Office (PSCO) Vice Unit. Their efforts found and rescued at least two sex trafficking victims. Former cop DiPrima was arrested after he tried to solicit an escort while attending the American Polygraph Association seminar in Orlando on August 31. He thought he was speaking to a sex worker, but was actually talking to an undercover PSCO detective. The Cartersville Police Department said in a press release that DiPrima had resigned Thursday following the department placing him on administrative leave pending an internal investigation. https://thenationalpulse.com/2022/09/12/biden-loosens-tech-export-restrictions-on-china/ Biden Quietly Loosens Tech Export Rules to Chinese Communist Firms Just Days After Huawei Lobbyist’s Brother Joins White House. The White House quietly loosened Trump-era restrictions on the sharing of U.S. technology with firms blacklisted for their ties to the Chinese Communist Party, including the controversial Huawei, The National Pulse can report. The Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) issued a revision to a Trump-era Export Administration Regulations (EAR) newly authorizing the release of certain technology and software for the alleged purpose of “standards setting and development in standards organizations.” The move, which applies to firms that have been blacklisted by the U.S. government, was advertised as addressing confusion over whether American companies need a license to share “low-level”technology with sanctioned parties. Notably, Huawei Technologies Co. – which was included in the original export ban, as telecommunications firm has extensive links to the Chinese Communist Party – will now be able to receive certain technologies from American companies. Labeled a “national security threat” by the Trump administration and a decades-long Chinese military collaborator by the U.S. Department of Defense, Huawei routinely provides the regime backdoor access to its products, networks, and devices. The State Department has also emphasized that the Chinese Communist Party uses Huawei as an “instrument not only for making money but also for pursuing the Party-State’s agenda and fulfilling its strategic objectives […] deeply enmeshed in Beijing’s system of oppression at home and its increasingly assertive strategic ambitions globally.” The news comes after months of wrangling by Huawei lobbyists, those of whom include leading anti-Trump and pro-Biden individuals, such as Trump impeachment support Stephen Binhak, and the brothers of both Biden advisor Steve Richetti and newly minted Biden climate czar John Podesta.

Ukrainian officials accused retreating Russian forces of launching retaliatory attacks on civilian infrastructure, including a thermal power station in Kharkiv, that the authorities in Kyiv said caused widespread blackouts. "No military facilities, the goal is to deprive people of light & heat," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy wrote on Twitter of the attacks. Moscow denies its forces deliberately target civilians. Zelenskiy has described Ukraine's offensive as a potential breakthrough in the six-month-old war, and said the winter could see further territorial gains if Kyiv received more powerful weapons. In the worst defeat for Moscow's forces since they were repelled from the outskirts of the capital Kyiv in March, thousands of Russian soldiers left behind ammunition and equipment as they fled the city of Izium, which they had used as a logistics hub.

It's Monday, September 12th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. By Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com) Indonesian church denied permit to build – again On September 9th, authorities in the Muslim-majority nation of Indonesia denied a Protestant church's building permit application in Cilegon city, Indonesia, reports International Christian Concern. Christian leaders in the area have been swift to condemn the decision, saying it goes against the Indonesian government's professed desire for interreligious tolerance and religious freedom. The opposition to the construction of Maranatha Church came from a September 7 protest organized by a group of Muslims. They met with the mayor of Cilegon, Helldy Agustian, and pressured him to refuse the building permit. A video of this incident went viral on social media. Founded in 1999, Maranatha Church has 3,903 members but still does not have its own venue. The church leaders said, “The lack of a church building is a serious problem for us. The congregation's spiritual formation cannot be carried out properly. We all believe that a place of worship is the central and strategic venue to educate worshippers properly and to grow the children's faith.” Indonesia is the 28th worst country in the world for the persecution of Christians, according to Open Doors. 86% of Indonesians are Muslim. 9/11 remembered Twenty-one years ago yesterday, Muslim terrorists attacked the twin towers of the World Trade Center. The co-anchors of New York Good Day were already talking about the hijacked 767 commercial jet airplane which had crashed into the north tower at 8:45 a.m. MALE: “It appeared to bank sharply and smash directly, perhaps purposefully, into … Woaa. Oh my goodness, there's another one. Oh my goodness, there's another one.” FEMALE: “This seems to be on purpose.” MALE: “Oh my goodness.” THIRD PERSON: “Is that a plane?” MALE: “Now it's obvious, I think, that there is a second plane that just crashed into the World Trade Center. I think we have a terrorist act of proportions that we cannot begin to imagine at this juncture.” The time was 9:03 a.m. And the south tower had just been hit by a second hijacked airplane flown by Muslim terrorists. Dr. Dobson: Ask God to heal our land Dr. James Dobson, the host of Family Talk heard on 1,300 Christian radio stations, said, “On September 11, 2001, our nation stood still and watched a horrific terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington, DC, and learned that yet another commercial aircraft had crashed in a field. What made this tragedy different was that it wasn't a military battle, but a devastating assault on our civilian population. It was an attack on our people, our nation, financial well-being, and emotional health. “We all struggled for weeks to comprehend what had happened. Our skyscrapers that stood so tall and majestic had turned to dust and rubble, with thousands of people who died as the buildings went down. The pain of those events still resonates deep within the heart of every American who watched. For many who survived, the memory remains traumatic. Those who lost loved ones continue to weep.” Dr. Dobson concluded by saying, “The tragedy of September 11 unified our country for a short time. Let us use this day to come together again and ask God to heal our land, to encourage those who survived, and to comfort those who grieve.” In 2 Chronicles 7:14, God says, “If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” Russians retreat, raise white flag & abandon Izium, Ukraine Russian soldiers raised a white flag as they fled a lightning Ukrainian advance that has reclaimed large swathes of territory, reports The Sun. The offensive demolished Russian lines and allowed Ukrainian soldiers to retake 30 towns in a key part of their country as Putin's troops abandoned a crucial city. It enabled President Volodymyr Zelensky's heroes to advance as much as 30 miles south of Kharkiv. Vitaly Ganchev, head of the Russian-backed administration in the Kharkiv region, all-but admitted that large tracts of its front line had crumbled there. The advances led CIA director William Burns to brand Putin's invasion as “already a failure”. In a major humiliation for Vladimir Putin, the Russian defense ministry admitted its troops have been forced to withdraw from Izium in the face of the onslaught. Sweet Hour of Prayer hymn anniversary And finally, this week marks the anniversary of when the lyrics to "Sweet Hour of Prayer," a classic and widely-beloved hymn, were originally published on September 13, 1845. The words were composed by a blind English preacher named William W. Walford, and then published in the New York Observer after a friend of his submitted the new hymn. Listen to the second half of the first verse. “Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! that calls me from a world of care, and bids me at my Father's throne make all my wants and wishes known. In seasons of distress and grief, my soul has often found relief, and oft escaped the tempter's snare by Thy return, sweet hour of prayer!” Philippians 4:6 says, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God." Called on to preach from time to time in a rural English church, William Walford composed sermons in his head to deliver on Sundays. Plus, he memorized a huge amount of the Bible which he quoted verbatim in his sermons. You can listen to the whole song through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.

Queen Elizabeth is dead. She was the last of a line of kings and queens that basically upheld a Christian world and life view — a line that dates back to King Athelstan, almost 1,100 years ago. That millennium has ended, and has given way to a post-Christian battle of ideas unlike anything we've seen in the history of the world. We provide a tribute to Elizabeth II, and consider the next king. Charles has stated that he will be the defender of faith, but certainly not the Defender of THE Faith. How would he ever take this element of the oath, when he has already set himself against the laws of God? “Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the Laws of God and the true profession of the Gospel?” This program includes: 1.

En una gran contraofensiva a lo largo de la última semana, el ejército ucraniano ha liberado unos 3.000 kilómetros cuadrados de territorio en el sur y el este del país. Esta ofensiva supone el avance más significativo en varios meses, desde que, en mayo, tras el repliegue ruso en el norte, las líneas se quedaron estancadas en la región del Donbás. Los rusos desde ese momento comenzaron a avanzar, pero con mucha lentitud. Ni rusos ni ucranianos parecían capaces de dar un golpe y recobrar la iniciativa hasta hace unos días cuando las unidades ucranianas pasaron al contraataque alejando a los rusos de Járkov, la segunda ciudad más grande del país y amenazando con cortar las líneas de suministro del ejército ruso. Las fotografías y videos publicados en las redes sociales nos han mostrado como esta ofensiva no sólo ha provocado un número indeterminado pero importante de bajas rusas, sino muchos prisioneros de guerra, lo que nos vendría a decir que en ciertos sectores reina el caos en el lado ruso. El avance ucraniano se está realizando en dos frentes. Uno por el noreste en la zona de Járkov y otro en el sur hacia la ciudad de Jersón, en la desembocadura del río Dniéper y que fue tomada por los rusos en marzo. En ambos frentes las tropas rusas han respondido al ataque poniéndose a la defensiva o replegándose. La táctica seguida por los ucranianos consiste en avances muy rápidos para pillar a los rusos por sorpresa y obligarles así a desalojar precipitadamente el territorio. El desempeño de las unidades ucranianas ha sorprendido a todos, incluyendo al propio Gobierno ucraniano, que esperaba que fuese algo más lento y se encontrasen con mayor resistencia. El avance está siendo tan rápido que necesitan continuamente refuerzos para ir consolidando las áreas recuperadas y protegerlas así de un contraataque ruso que podría producirse antes de que dé comienzo el otoño dentro de sólo un par de semanas. Los ucranianos cuentan a su favor con el conocimiento del terreno, la artillería de largo alcance que les ha proporcionado Estados Unidos, buena información de las posiciones rusas que les facilitan sus aliados y el hecho de que el ejército ruso no se está comportando como esperaban. Todo ello junto les ha permitido romper la línea de frente que, casi sin cambios, se mantenía desde antes del verano. Ucrania ha conseguido detectar de forma muy habilidosa dónde estaban más expuestos los rusos, cuyas líneas de aprovisionamiento son muy delgadas en ciertos puntos y les complican posibles redespliegues. El objetivo en estos momentos es consolidar el terreno ganado, en el que se encuentra la ciudad de Izium, que fue liberada hace sólo dos días tras permanecer en manos del enemigo desde finales de marzo. No sabemos hasta dónde tendrá cuerda esta contraofensiva, pero obliga a Putin a responder si quiere salvar el honor de un ejército que en estos momentos se encuentra por los suelos.

Hot UpdatesSeverodonetsk fell slowly as expected, but then Lysychansk fell quickly because Russian troops surrounded it, and Ukrainian troops had to retreat rather than be destroyed. It's possible the Ukrainians were out-gamed by Russian mid-level commanders.So far, Russians have not been able to break out of Donetsk city -- that part of the original Feb 24 defense line is holdingRussia appears to have deployed nearly 100% of its conventional combat capabilities to Ukraine, and is still getting clobbered.https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/06/25/ukraine-russia-balance-of-forces/ Russia is trying to recruit “volunteer” regiments to deploy in Ukraine to relieve Russian troops -- they will be low quality, and so their use would be to hang tight in certain areas and try to pin down Ukrainian units. Not useless, but not super useful.Once again we have returned to slow movement along the front lines now that Severodonetsk and Lysychansk fell. Ukrainians fell back to the 2nd of 3 highly defensible urban areas in Donetsk oblast, with Siversk and Bakhmut the big towns there. Bakhmut is under a lot of pressure; Russians are trying to surround it, but so far to no avail.Russians attempting to attack directly on those two towns, but also continuing to try the end-around from Izium toward Sloviansk to try to create a pocket that can be cut off. So far it's really not working. It looks like Russia might be deprioritizing that angle as of July 31.WHAT IS HIMARS?

First, war update:Mariupol fell after 2.5 months of truly insane holding out. Gosh dang. 1900 surrendered and there is a POW complication that I”m not going to get intoUkraine has mostly booted Russia out of Kharkiv, though there is still some fighting and the Russians have not given it up entirely the way they did Kyiv/Sumy/etc, so there's no obvious way to free up those troops for UkraineRussians trying really hard to cross the Siversky Donets river by pontoon, in order to encircle Ukraine's core defense force in the Donbass (largely around a city called Severodonetsk and one called Lysychansk). It seems at least twice the Ukrainians knocked out entire BTGs trying to make that crossing, which is incredible.https://twitter.com/KyivIndependent/status/1528116469619367940Apparently Russia is generally short of pontoon type equipment…but Russia has a breakout of sorts, actually right in the northern part of the original Donbass battle lines, through a town called Popansa. TONS of troops moving through thereIt's both a breakout……and a salient, which means significant risk for them. Somewhat exposed.Ukrainians are pretty good at mobile defenseJust not at all clear if they are running in open space (and just taking time to stage properly) or if they are running against really significant resistance at this pointThe original breakthrough at Izium seems to have stalled entirelyRussian troops also massed on the western side of the Siversky Donets (the northern part) to prevent the Ukrainian counter-attack there from threatening the supply lines and etc to Izium -- if that happened it'd be a total disaster(Ukrainians had temporarily broken across the river but had to withdraw)Russian tactics seem to be: just unload with artillery for days and days, then attempt an assaultUsually failBut rinse, lather, repeat, and you get some breakthroughsRussians seem to be planning to do this in the south, north of KhersonRussia may be running out of dronesWill hurt reconDomestic manufacturing capacity limited so they can't build ‘emThings are moving SLOW, and will continue to do so IF the Popansa breakthrough is containedOK so how does this end?Well here's where Russia blew it big time.The Ukrainians believe they can win.Russians could have had a settlement where they get Donbass and likely even Crimea as concessions. Now the Ukrainians believe they can win, and want to win.Ukrainians are also just full of morale, manpower, and money.-Zelenskyy says 700k soldiers now fighting for Ukraine -- 3x those of Russia. Can definitely win a war of attrition-Ukraine just got $40B promised from the US, and the G7 promised another $38BRussia on the other hand is having trouble manufacturing new weapons, and is losing tons of money from sanctions and withdrawals -- 45% of its GDP was made up from sales and operations from the companies that left Russia (which doesn't, I think, mean a 45% GDP contraction, but it means a lot). So there's just an economic slowdown generally, and a lack of ability to manufacture advanced weapons.Russia depends more and more on tube artillery, so it's just blasting the Donbass to hell.And for Russia?See the full notes at ReconsiderMedia.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/reconsiderpodcast.

Ukrainian forces start advancing south towards Izium for the first time since the conflict has started. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/speak-the-truth1/support
On day 50 of the war in Ukraine, Russia says its warship “Moskva” has sunk; Ukraine claims it struck the flagship of Russia's Black Sea fleet with missiles. The crew was forced to abandon the Moskva, giving the Ukrainian military a morale boost and causing embarrassment to Moscow. A Ukraine special-operations unit destroyed a bridge near Izium, as Russian forces continue to fight to take the strategic port city of Mariupol. This, as an agreement in principle is drafted for a possible meeting between Putin and Zelensky, showing a glimmer of hope for diplomacy. Plus, trains in Ukraine provide a lifeline for refugees, and the CIA weighs in on the threat of Russia using tactical nuclear weapons. Hosted by Jake Tapper, live from Kyiv.
