Bill Roggio examines the intersection of Ebola and jihadist activity in Africa. ISIS-affiliated groups occupy national parks, complicating medical containment efforts amidst collapsed governance in West Africa and foreign exploitation by Russia and China. (1)1873 KIMBERLEY

STREAMING MAKING JBS, FEATURING ROGGIO AND SAYEH, 6-8-26.1895 WAR CANOEThe current global landscape is defined by the "Long War," a volatile intersection of jihadi insurgency, biological threats, and state-level conflict. In Africa, a "twin monster" has emerged: the simultaneous spread of Ebola and jihadist violence across the continent's center. The Ebola threat is "very live," stretching from the DR Congo to Somalia, with hundreds of confirmed cases and thousands more suspected. Jihadist groups like the ISIS-affiliated Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) act as vectors for the virus, tramping through jungles where the disease originates and moving between villages. This crisis is further complicated by the collapse of governance in West Africa and the presence of Russia's Africa Corps and Chinese exploiters targeting gold mines.

Sophie McDowell explains how jihadists utilize music to foster a sense of pride and community among potential recruits.

The new government of Syria, led since last year by former Al-Qaida commander Ahmad Al-Shara'a is allegedly a pragmatic, multifaith movement righting the wrongs of the Assad era. But might it be a front for more extreme jihadist elements? The escape of thousands of Islamic State militants under the noses of Al-Shara'a's forces points to a lack of concern at the very least. To discuss this I was delighted to be joined by Syria expert Kelly Kassis.

The White House just released a new National Counterterrorism Strategy. It marks an important break from past official narratives about enemies foreign and domestic heretofore euphemistically and misleadingly called “terrorists.”  Notably, it declared: “Americans should be safe to live their lives without the fear of terror attacks, the threat of jihadists, the flooding of our communities with deadly drugs at the hands of foreign narcoterrorists, or violent left-wing extremists who have adopted radical ideologies antithetical to the principles upon which our Republic was founded.”  Particularly heartening is the acknowledgement that among the “terrorists” we confront are actually “jihadists,” in other words adherents to the totalitarian Islamic doctrine known as sharia that requires them to engage in holy war or “jihad.” The strategy explicitly calls for “protect[ing] Christians, who have been slaughtered at the hands of these Jihadi groups.”  Praise God!

Mark Levin, Dinesh D'Souza - The Democrat Party Embodies Marxism and Jihadist Influences and Big Supreme Court Win!  Mark Levin Podcast The Best Of Mark Levin - 5/2/26  May 02 2026   This week on the Mark Levin Show, Democrats, their media, and podcast surrogates will quickly resumed attacks despite the third assassination attempt on President Trump. Their rhetoric reveals Marxist and Islamist ideologies, falsely labeling Trump Hitler and a dictator. The Democrat Party embodies Marxism and jihadist influences, unlike Republicans who purge their extremists. Next, the AP article reporting James Comey's second indictment was grotesque propaganda - an opinion piece that leads with accusations of vindictive prosecution by the Trump administration's Justice Department. The piece notes Comey's history feuding with Trump and his role in the Russia investigation but these details are irrelevant to the charge. Comey's explanation for the 8647 seashells is unbelievable—especially for a former FBI director.   Dinesh D'Souza 808K subscribers 1,594 views The Supreme Court's racial gerrymandering decision isn't just a big win for the midterms and beyond.

Turkey's efforts to expand its influence in West Africa could be threatened by attacks on Mali's military regime, as Ankara pledges support while its growing security cooperation with Bamako faces new pressure. Ankara has strongly condemned attacks by Tuareg separatists and Al Qaeda-linked jihadists on Mali's military government. The attacks began last weekend, killed the defence minister and handed over control of key territory. Turkey has built ties with Mali over the past two decades, but since Mali's military rulers took power in 2021, that relationship has shifted sharply towards security. “Since 2010, that expansion has been much more rapid,” said Professor Sedat Aybar, director of the Asia Pacific Africa Studies Centre at Bahcesehir University in Istanbul. “It starts on humanitarian grounds and then evolves toward economic cooperation, followed by security and military aid, and capacity building for the Malian military, particularly against terrorist activities in the north.” Russia vows to keep forces in Mali despite warning from separatists to withdraw Security expansion Turkey has signed several security and defence agreements with Mali's military rulers, mainly focused on training and logistics. Defence sales have also increased, including advanced Turkish drones. Turkey's role has grown as Mali sought new security partners after expelling French forces in 2022. Russia remains Mali's main security partner, but Turkey is becoming more important as Bamako seeks to reduce dependence on Moscow. “We did see the late defense minister [Sadio Camara] going to Ankara on several occasions to sign bilateral agreements, but also to acquire drones and other equipment that would support the Malian army,” said Beverly Ochieng, senior analyst at Control Risks, a global risk consultancy. Turkish firms have sold Mali advanced drones, including the Akinci, she said, adding that Russian paramilitary forces in Mali have also acquired equipment through Turkey, “It's also by proxy, because the Russian paramilitaries, they have been acquiring equipment on their own behalf, but also for the Malian army via Turkey,” Ochieng said. Malian official accuses Russian forces of 'betrayal' after Kidal falls to rebels Regional ambitions Turkey's expanding security role in Mali is part of a broader Sahel strategy that also includes Burkina Faso and Niger. “Not just Mali, but the Sahel is very important. Cooperation with Burkina Faso and Niger is very important too,” said Melis Ozdemir, a PhD candidate at Galatasaray University studying Turkish-Malian relations. The military governments in Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger, all of which cut defence ties with France, have opened new opportunities for Turkish diplomacy and defence exports. “It's given Turkey a chance to increase its footprint, not just politically or diplomatically, but also it can show its military power, its drones, and its new military vehicles and equipment,” said Ozdemir. “I think Turkey is also testing its own military equipment in these regions.” Direct Turkish military intervention in Mali appears unlikely, Aybar said, but Ankara could still send military advisers if requested. “Nigeria requested Turkish military advisors to enhance Nigeria's capacity to fight Boko Haram, the terrorist organization in Nigeria, so Turkey is engaged in doing this,” said Aybar. “If the Malian government invites Turkey to do a similar thing in Mali, then Turkey will consider sending in experts and advisers to the military in Mali.” Turkey is also offering diplomatic support. “There could be a route through negotiations,” said Ochieng. “Turkey is one of the middle powers that is also trying to look for dynamic ways of resolving conflict. It's not just within the Sahel, but you've seen them try to be involved in the DR Congo, calling for dialogue between the warring parties,” Ochieng said. “Ankara and Istanbul have also become a point where armed groups are able to hold talks and to find mediated ways out of political and security crises."

In this episode of Hold Your Fire!, Richard is joined by Crisis Group's deputy Sahel director Ibrahim Yahaya Ibrahim to discuss a major wave of coordinated attacks by the al-Qaeda affiliated Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM) and Tuareg rebels across Mali. They examine how the offensive unfolded, including the killing of Mali's defence minister and the fall of the strategic northern city of Kidal. They discuss the nature of the renewed cooperation between JNIM and Tuareg separatists, JNIM's goals and evolving tactics, and what the attacks mean for the junta's hold on power and Russia's role as Bamako's security partner. They also look at how, on one side, the Burkina Faso and Niger military authorities and, on the other, coastal West African states are responding amid strained relations between the Sahel's military-led governments and ECOWAS and consider where the crisis may be headed.Listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.For more, check out our report “Understanding JNIM's Expansion Beyond” the and our Mali page.

Blood Coming to America (1) (audio) David Eells, 4/26/26 (Note: Parts of this may be a little scary for children. They could at least need encouragement in faith.)    American Flag Bleeds Marie Kelton – End of March 2026 (David's notes in red) While I was at work, I went to the back room in my work area to get something. I saw that someone had stuck an American flag in a box located on top of a shelf so that the flag was just hanging over the floor. I then had an open vision where I saw drops of blood falling from the American flag.   Blood up to the Horse's Bridle Marie Kelton - 4/16/26 As I was driving to work, I had an open vision. My windshield wipers were going, and blood splashed on my windshield, covering it. I saw the following written in the blood: “Blood of the saints.” Then my windshield wipers wiped it off. But blood splashed on my windshield again, and what was written this time was, “Blood of the innocent.” My windshield wipers wiped off again. Then I heard a voice say, “America will burn.” (This is a quote from Dumitru Duduman's revelation. https://www.ubm1.org/?page=dumitru_duduman-5 ) “He said, The Russian spies have discovered where the most powerful nuclear missiles are in America. "It will start with the world calling for 'peace, peace'. Then there will be an internal revolution in America, started by the Communists. Some of the people will start fighting against the government. The government will be busy with internal problems. Then from the oceans, Russia, Cuba, Nicaragua, Central America, Mexico, and two other countries (which I cannot remember) will attack! The Russians will bombard the nuclear missile silos in America. America will burn". Then, in the open vision on both sides of me on the highway, I saw that the whole land was covered in blood like a lake. In the vision, I had stopped my car and stepped out of it to look at the scene in shock. In the vision, my hair was its normal color again. The blood reminded me of the verse about it being about as high as the horse's bridle. Rev.14:20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and there came out blood from the winepress, even unto the bridles of the horses, as far as a thousand and six hundred furlongs.   Marie Kelton - 4/19/26 At my work, we have a big American flag in front of the store. After finishing my work for the night, I walked out to my car. I saw the flag blowing in the wind. As I was walking to my car, I looked back at the flag, and I had an open vision. I saw the flag had blood dripping from it, just like it was in the vision of it hanging from the shelf.   Marie Kelton - 4/21/2026 While I was having lunch at work, I had an open vision of the Statue of Liberty. She had a sad look on her face, and she was crying tears of blood. The flame on her torch was a real flame, while the rest of her was a statue. (America will burn)   4-23-2026 During the morning meeting, David asked me to seek the Lord with these questions about the visions: what is the cause of the blood, who did it, and when. After the meeting, I asked the Lord “why” concerning the visions above, and a verse came to mind about broken cisterns that hold no water. Jer.2:13 For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water. (They cannot contain the “water of the Word.”) Then I heard the Lord say, He would lessen the judgment if His people would seek Him. Antichrist vision, and World War III vision - April 24, 2026 During worship, I had an open vision of ancient Rome it was an open auditorium with roman pillars around the auditorium The sky was blue with clouds. I saw the back of a Ceaser he had a golden laurel crown on his head. He had a red cape on which is called a paludamentum. The Ceaser was on platform there was a large crowd in front of him. (Representing the anti-christ leadership of a revived Roman Empire.)  I could see the demon in the Ceaser, and I can see the demons in the crowd I heard the crowd say, "Who is like the beast,". The large crowd then came together and turned into a giant ceaser. The sky turned into a night sky with a lot stars in it. I then saw a giant Jesus Christ come and I saw the foot of Jesus step on the giant Ceaser and squish him.    Antichrist vision, and world war III vision I had another open vision, the Lord was sitting next to me and He had a newspaper, it was open to where I could see it. The newspaper page said in bold print World War III is happening soon, then in little letters it said underneath Peace Peace, sudden destruction. The Lord shook the newspaper in his hands as He was holding it open a couple of times. I saw this multiple times. The Lord then folded the news paper and laid it on the floor in a square. The front of the news paper said the Daily News.  (There are several newspapers in the world called The Daily News, one is in New York, another in India, another in Australia,  another South Africa and one Britain etc. ) 1Th 5:3 When they are saying, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall in no wise escape.   War and Blood on U.S. Hands Michael Boldea, October 2003 Psalm 32:6-7 For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You in a time when You may be found, surely in a flood of great waters they shall not come near him. You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. It was October 11th 2003, and I dreamt I was kneeling by my bedside praying, when I felt a presence behind me. I turned, and a man was standing there, dressed in white, his hands clasped in front of him. It was the same man I had seen in a dream some time earlier. “Why didn't you say something, if you were standing there”, I asked. “I would never interrupt your communion with the Father”, he answered, “it is a precious thing. Take my hand, I must show you something. I took his hand, and suddenly we were standing in front of the US Marine War Memorial. It is a statue depicting a group of soldiers raising the American flag on Iwo Jima in World War II. I looked to the man standing on my right, but he pointed toward the statue, and said, “look at the flag”. As I was watching the flag flap in the wind, a red spot appeared in its center, it began to grow, and spread turning the flag red as it went. (Just as Marie's revelation) It was like someone had spilled this red liquid in the flag's center, and absorbing it the stain continued to grow. I watched as the entire flag became saturated until it finally started to drip. To my surprise, I realized the liquid dripping from the flag was blood. “What is this supposed to mean?” I asked the man. “The leaders of this nation have war on their hearts, and on their lips, and soon they will have blood on their hands. The banner of war is upon this land”, the man answered solemnly. Before I could ask anything more, I found myself sitting up in bed in a cold sweat. I shared this dream with a friend that Sunday night, as I happened to be speaking in his church in Topeka. I also shared it with Geno and the rest of the staff here at the Hand of Help office, but in my heart, I had decided not to make it public until after the holidays. The reasons for choosing not to share this until after the New Year are something I choose not to elaborate on at the present time. Then three weeks after this initial dream, I had another. I dreamt the same man was standing by my bedside, but he was no longer dressed in white. Over his robe, he had a breastplate, and as he stood, I could see the handle of a sword protruding from behind his right shoulder. It was the fiercest image I had ever seen in my life, but I was not afraid. Kindness still showed in his eyes, and I knew he meant me no harm. As I looked up at him, the one thing that struck me was that his breastplate was not shiny. For some reason, I had expected it to shine, rather it was dented and scarred, and looked as though it had seen much battle. He looked down at me with what I could only describe as disappointment in his eyes. Before I could speak, he said, “For a vessel to fulfill its task, substance must be poured into it, then that same substance must be poured out. If it is never poured out, it will overflow, being of use to no one. Do you understand?” I nodded halfheartedly, although I knew what he was trying to tell me. “When a vessel is chosen, it is an honor”, he continued, “be faithful in completing your task and share what is given you without delay. Come, I will show you once more. Once again, we stood before the monument, and the same scene played out. “When will this happen?” I asked before he could turn away. “When the Father wills it”, he answered. “His will be done”. “Can't you ask Him?” I asked, realizing only after the words had left my mouth how infantile the question had been. “You speak of things your mind cannot comprehend,” he said. “You speak of time concerning the One to whom centuries are no more than a blink of an eye. Be diligent in what you have been shown, and more will be revealed. All things proceed as He ordains, that is all you are given to know for now”. The dream ended, and I found myself in my bed. I have had some time to contemplate this dream, and if I were one given to speculation, there are many theories I could come up with, but I am not. What I do know is whether, in retaliation for a certain action, or as a preemptive measure, this nation will set out on a course that will eventually be the cause of innocents losing their lives. This nation will be perceived as having blood on its hands, and it will stir the emotions of the world against it. I pray with all my heart this does not occur, that all who are denoting peace and safety for generations to come are right, and I am wrong. Regardless of what some may think, I do not want to see the judgment of God fall on this land, but the path we have chosen as a nation is leading us to it. More than ever, I urge you to pray for this nation. and its leaders, because it is our duty as children of God to do so. May He who ordains all things be with you and guide you, knowing that in Him there is perfect safety, and perfect peace. My heartfelt gratitude and thanks go out to all those who pray for and support this work, being more than certain that your reward will be great indeed. Jonah 3:8-9 “But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily to God; yes, let every one turn from his evil way and from the violence that is in his hands. Who can tell if God will turn and relent, and turn away His fierce anger so that we may not perish.”   Earthquake, Slaughter, Economic Destruction  Charlie and Linda Smith - July 2013 (David's notes in red) If the following scenes make you fearful, remember, Pro.11:4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath; But righteousness delivereth from death. Charlie's Dreams What started out to be a beautiful day to travel and visit a nearby city turned out to be a horror story that we both became witnesses to. First Night's Dream As the dream began to unfold, Linda and I were traveling by truck to a city to the north, not far from us. (All of us here know this city, which has a high population of “Christians” but far fewer disciples.) We traveled on a four-lane highway to our destination. Our intention was to buy something we needed, have a meal, and return home. As we came to the city limits and topped a hill, I saw the store to my right and pulled into the parking lot. We must have been early because there were only two or three cars in the parking lot. Our thought was to run in, get what we came for, have a meal and leave. But while at the store, the place trembled and shook. We thought, “QUAKE! We have to leave”. I told Linda, “Hurry, and I'll get the truck”. But I couldn't find where I had parked it. When I finally got to the truck, the dream was ending, and we became separated from one another. It was a fearful feeling. I did not like the dream or the way it was being played out. I woke up full of fear. Second Night The second night, the dream started again. It picked up as I entered town at the store/shopping center. This time, I didn't park in the store parking lot, but decided to park the truck across the highway, behind a hill of dirt in view of the store. Still separated from Linda, I found myself walking and looking around. No one was around. Everything had now changed. Everything was a dirty, dark gray color. (The color of death.) The sky, the land, the town also. It looked like ash from a wood stove. I was looking at what was left of a city. Everything was destroyed. The city was gone, except for a building or two in the distance here and there. The streets were empty -- no cars, no people, nothing, only piles of gray rubble where buildings once stood. Later in the evening, as darkness closed in, I saw people - a family of three or four running through the streets, running and hiding. I believe they were trying to get away from the city or someone in the city because they looked around before they moved again. As I watched, I saw three men of dark complexion and demon-possessed. The demon-possessed men ran upon a woman, her husband, her son, and a small girl, with swords (which were curved) and daggers and took off their heads. (This curved sword is the Muslim scimitar, which is most effective for cutting off heads with one blow. How could such an attack come on a city in darkness in the U.S.? This certainly wouldn't happen with swords in the U.S., where guns are everywhere, right? Notice it is after the earthquakes here that martial law will be used to take guns away and restrain people in their homes or FEMA camps. Many could be killed quietly before this is found out, and it certainly wouldn't make the news in the US today. Most or all of this would be blamed on deaths from earthquakes and fire. Jihadists always target as many Christians and Jews as possible. God Himself has warned the rebellious: Amo.9:10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, who say, The evil shall not overtake nor meet us. ...7:17 therefore thus saith Jehovah: Thy wife shall be a harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided by line (by earthquakes, or war, or civil war?); and thou thyself shalt die in a land that is unclean, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land. It is Islam's goal to behead Christians, unless they deny Christ. They are doing this now in places where they can get away with it. Rev.20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God.... Many will have to die in this way, or they will not enter the Kingdom. Others, through maturity, will be alive and remain until the coming of the Lord. A few days later, the Lord reminded me of something in the dream: the woman and her child who had escaped. He had to remind me of the timing of the birth, then the escape, because I couldn't remember it. (The Woman, a parable in Revelation 12 of the Church who bears the fruit of Jesus, will escape. Also, the Woman who brings forth the corporate Man-child at this time will escape into the wilderness.) The woman gave birth to her child at the same time Linda and I were at the store/shopping center when we felt the shaking (quake). Later, the woman took the child and escaped (the sword). I thought of the Woman and Man-child escaping the Dragon, as in Revelation 12:4, or escaping Herod the Beast, as in Matthew 2:13. (As we have seen, the Man-child is manifested after the earthquakes begin destroying America.) After all night watching this dream, I asked the Lord, “Lord, is this dream from You, or am I having nightmares?” I said, “I don't want to see anymore. Lord, if the dream is from You, give me a confirmation. Give the same dream to Linda tonight”. And God did. Third Night Again, the dream picked up where it had stopped the night before. More death and destruction everywhere. Then the dream changed. In the distance, I saw a three or four-story building. I quickly arrived there and found myself entering a door into the building. Inside was dark, except for some light that came in through a window. I crossed a large room of the building and came to a staircase going to the top floor. When I arrived at the top floor, before me was a steel double door. As I went in, I found myself in a large, dark conference room with a large round table with a hanging light illuminating the table, where seven men in dark suits were gathered. Six men were sitting around the table, each having a stack of papers before him. One man, the leader or head man, stood before the six men and was speaking. They were going over plans to destroy the economy. Each of the six men was in control of a different part of the economy. They were in disagreement about what was about to happen. The head man who stood over them speaking was enraged because the other six men were complaining, saying, “It won't work”, shaking their stacks of papers before the head man who stood. They were railing back and forth when the head man began to curse and say, “This economy is finished”. He said, “Tomorrow at this time it will be over” (or finished). (Shortly after the earthquakes, the financial ‘powers that be' will bring down the economy in order to control the people and bring in their New World Order.) He cursed again, struck the table with his fist, and said, “Don't worry. Everything will be all right; you will see”. The six men, yet greatly troubled, went along with the plan. The dream ended. The Lord gave Linda and me the same dreams. It's from God. Linda's Dreams First Night I had just gone to bed, closed my eyes, and somehow I just appeared in this dream. Charles and I were in our truck, and he was driving. He drove to a city and found a parking place where we both got out and walked to a building. Charles went inside, so I followed him. I didn't know where I was or why I was there. While we were inside looking around at some things, the building began to shake. It shook for what seemed like 30 or 35 seconds. In my dream, we were trapped in this building. There were other people in this building, about 12 of us in all. A man about 35 years old came up to me and said, “Please come with me; I think I know of a way out”. He grabbed a long rope, and we went up some stairs to the second floor. The man took the rope and tied knots in it almost all the way down the length of it, and then tied it to a steel I-beam and then dropped it out of a hole where a window had been. We went back and told the others, and each one climbed down the rope, and we all were able to get out. Once outside, we could see that most of the buildings of this city were like great heaps of rubble, but a few smaller buildings were badly damaged but were still standing. Then, suddenly, there was a four or five-second aftershock, and everyone scattered. Charles said to me, “Just wait here. I'll go get the truck, and we'll get out of this place”. So I stood there waiting for about three or four minutes. I decided to walk down the same way Charles had gone. When I got to the parking lot, there weren't any cars or anyone there, so I quickly turned and ran back to where I had been waiting. Then I walked 20 feet to the front of the building, looking up and down the street, but saw no one. I walked back and waited. I just stood there, not really knowing what to do, just standing there all alone. It was starting to get dark, and Charles had not returned. Suddenly, I saw a young woman with a little boy about three years old coming down the sidewalk on the other side of the street. She was quickly passing by me. I called out to her, but she turned left at the corner and, crossing the street, she kept on walking. I ran down to the corner to see where she was going. As she got to the end of that block, three men stepped out in front of her. She screamed, and two of the men began to beat her. The other man grabbed her little boy and, with his raised sword, hit the boy on top of his head, cutting him in half all the way down, and I saw his intestines falling out of his little body. I was close enough to see the man's eyes, and they were black as coal. Laughing, he picked up the two halves of the body and carried them away. The other two men, drawing their swords, began to slash the woman numerous times. Both men, each grabbed one of her ankles and dragged her body away. I ran back to the building where I had been waiting for Charles to return. Fear had overtaken me, but seeing the rope still hanging down from where we had escaped from this building earlier, I climbed up, went back in the building, and pulled the rope up so no one else could get in. I was so fearful that my whole body was shaking because what I had just witnessed was so horrifying. I cried out, “Jesus, help me. Fill me with Your peace, Lord”. In the dream, I lay down on the floor to go to sleep, and I woke up from the dream. I did not write down the dream at that time because I just wanted to forget it. Second Night The second dream continued where the first left off: In the dream, I lay down and went right off to sleep. When I woke up, it was late afternoon, and I was lying on the floor in the building. I got up and looked out the hole where a window had been. I wanted so badly to find a way out of this city. I got the rope and climbed down to the sidewalk. I decided to walk 15 blocks down the east side of the city. I walked block after block, counting each one and looking for a road that would take me out of there. At the 15th block, I saw no way out going this way, so I turned around and went back to my starting point. I decided to walk 15 blocks west and check it out. I got to the 15th block, and the sun was setting, and I knew I didn't have much time because I didn't want to be out after dark again. Then I heard voices. I looked in the direction from where I thought the voices were coming. I saw a park-like setting. I looked and saw some people in the park -- a man and a woman with two kids. I walked down a little way and hid behind a large tree. In the far distance, I saw a big fire. Then I saw some of those demonized people surrounding the man, woman, and the two kids. They began screaming and begging, “Don't hurt us, please”. The kids were crying. The demonized men had curved swords, and some of the men began to strip them. The ones with the swords were cutting all their heads off, then arms and legs. Others of them carried the body parts to the fire and threw them on the fire (to destroy the evidence). I slipped away, going back to the building where I had been staying. I ran the first eight blocks as fast as I could. I was getting very tired, so I tried to walk at a fast pace for the next seven blocks. I heard voices behind me saying, “There is another one. Get her. Don't let her get away. Hurry, hurry, she's getting away. Get her”. The voices were louder and getting closer. I ran into a dark alley and hid. Then I heard a scream and slowly looked out of the alley and saw that they had caught a pregnant woman. One of the men took his sword and plunged it into her chest, and cut her all the way down her body, and her baby fell out. I saw the baby's and the woman's bloody bodies mutilated. The men dragged the bodies back toward where the fire was. I woke up from the dream. Again, I did not write down these dreams; I did not want to. I just wanted the dreams to stop. I just wanted to forget all of it.   Mena Lee - 04/05/2013 (David's notes in red) About two nights ago, the Lord gave me a dream where He was speaking directly to me. He said, “Al Qaeda is here in the country”. I responded with, “What?!” The Lord continued, “Al Qaeda is in the country, and Obama knows that they are here”. (This administration has been using Jihadists overseas to fight for his causes. It will be so here, too. Islamic Jihadists have been entering the country through Mexico, disguised as Mexicans who do not speak Spanish. These cells are placed strategically all over the U.S. now. This has been reported for years. This is not about blaming that President, who is a vessel of God's wrath to judge apostate Christianity. God is the one who has pronounced these judgments. So what is the moral of this story? Fight against the government? No. Deal with God, Who works all things after the counsel of His own will. Pro.16:7 When a man's ways please Jehovah, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. Be Holy and be safe.) “They are remaining low-key and not wanting to draw attention to themselves. I will show you where they are hiding”. And with that, the Lord began to show me places throughout the country where they were stationed. I saw small businesses, beauty supply stores, local grocery stores, and small shops. The Lord said, “Tell the people that a war event is coming to the coastline of this country”. And with that, I woke up. Four nights later, He returned to me again with the same thing. The Lord told me to study the book of Zephaniah as a reference on what is to come. He also informed me that the fourth month would be significant. (Please read Zephaniah. How can this be seen as a judgment coming now? Zephaniah is a prophecy of many things that happen almost simultaneously. It is a prophecy of coming judgment on apostate Judah, representing apostate “Spirit-filled” Christianity. Then a warning about the coming Day of the Lord to those who refuse to repent. Also, a demand for repentance so they will be hidden in this time of judgment. Then there is the judgment of their persecutors. Then there is a destruction of Nineveh (the capital of the Assyrian Empire), which I was shown was the U.S. head of the world Beast. [Not to be confused with that ultimate judgment at the end of the tribulation.] Then the corruption of apostate Jerusalem, as a type of the false leadership of God's people. Then the matured remnant of the Bride, who has been purified of all of the above and blessed. Read it and be exhorted to be in the secret place of the Most High, a Psalm 91 Passover of Judgment.) This morning, I asked for a word concerning the date of a factious attack on 4/11, which came to pass, and I looked down on Micah 4:11. This was the Sennacherib scenario in which the Assyrians attacked Jerusalem [in confirmation of the text above]. In this case, the Bride, Jerusalem, is victorious over the enemy army that had conquered the rest of God's people. I believe God is speaking of a spirit army that is using apostates to come against the remnant. This is a spiritual earthquake of sorts. Mic.4:9 Now why dost thou cry out aloud? Is there no king in thee, is thy counsellor perished, that pangs have taken hold of thee as of a woman in travail? 10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now shalt thou go forth out of the city, and shalt dwell in the field, and shalt come even unto Babylon: there shalt thou be rescued; there will Jehovah redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies. 4:11 And now many nations are assembled against thee, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye see [our desire] upon Zion. 12 But they know not the thoughts of Jehovah, neither understand they his counsel; for he hath gathered them as the sheaves to the threshing-floor. 13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion; for I will make thy horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass; and thou shalt beat in pieces many peoples: and I will devote their gain unto Jehovah, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth. I also received a confirmation: Zec.12:8 In that day shall Jehovah defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of Jehovah before them. 9 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. I also received: Isa.28:22 Now therefore be ye not scoffers, lest your bonds be made strong; for a decree of destruction have I heard from the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, upon the whole earth. (Earthquakes and WWIII.F 23 Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech. 24 Doth he that ploweth to sow plow continually? doth he [continually] open and harrow his ground? Meaning God is almost through breaking up the fallow ground of His remnant; He is ready to plant.   Linda L. Gray - 08/29/2014 I just finished listening to UBM's Wednesday's (8/27/14) audio file while at my mom's house for my caregiving responsibilities. The topic of the evening was the violence of the ISIS/Islamic movement and the possibility of another incident happening on a large scale within our country. In the early morning hours of Friday, August 22nd, I had the following dream: In the dream, I was alone in my home. It was daytime, and the sun was shining. My front door was open so fresh air could come into the house. I walked over to one of my windows facing the front of the house (it faces the east). Standing in the distance, I could see a line of men dressed in black clothing (similar to ISIS photos). In front of the black-dressed men was a large pit. Inside the pit were bundles of packaged newspapers (like you see prior to delivery to a news stand). While looking at this strange sight, the newspapers suddenly exploded up into the air. Discerning that these individuals and the situation were dangerous and threatening, I went over to my front door to close and secure it. Upon reaching the door, a demonic-type figure was standing outside. I quickly shut the door and locked it. Whatever or whoever the entity was, they were not permitted to come inside my home. The door was wide open. After securing the door, I picked up my pet parrot and proceeded to go to the “secret place” (Psalm 91). Isa.26:20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee; hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. End of dream. Additional notes: As a note in history, western Pennsylvania was involved in the Underground Railroad during the Civil War. In designated homes, secret rooms were built to house individuals running away from slave owners. Another reference would be what the family of Corrie ten Boom did in preparing their home to hide Jewish people from the Nazis in (The Hiding Place). Could all the coming bloodletting have anything to do with America reaping what it has sown with millions of slaughtered babies and constant wars? Here is a portion of Dana Coverstone's Dream on 5/19/23   Let Me Show You Something (David's notes in red) ….Then he (the Lord) said to me, “There's more to see.” Suddenly, I'm on the southern border. I saw an enormous line of volcanoes that seemed to have sprung up overnight. They covered from the western point of California all the way to Texas. Literally, these were volcanoes on the border. (Hell's demons coming out of hell upon the earth to use the wicked enemies. Rev.9:2-3 And he opened the pit of the abyss; and there went up a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. 3 And out of the smoke came forth locusts upon the earth; and power was given them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.) They were very tall; they shadowed the ground. And I cannot emphasize this enough. These volcanoes on the border were (shooting) hundreds of miles up into the air. The ground was shaking, seemingly creaking, and the volcanoes trembled, and they started erupting magma and lava. And then suddenly the entire border shook, and I saw the volcanoes appear to grow, and the ground below them looked like it was torn. It was like, how a tree that gets knocked over in the wind or damaged by a tornado, there was an area of the earth that opens up at the base of the tree trunk. So the volcanoes tip backwards, they're still spewing lava and all these other things. (Hell on earth) But there was a hole where the volcanoes came up along the entire southern border. (This is a demonic empowered invasion over the southern U.S. border.) At that moment all sorts of people dressed like normal migrants came running out, and they were sprinting. (This would be in addition to those who have already come across the border and those anarchists and radical Muslims already inside the US. And the left-wing military faction. It has been reported that millions of migrants are below the border waiting, and many are military-age men, and also, there are many Chinese Communists there to support their DS. MS-13 has been an arm of the DS military too.) They were running as hard and as fast as they possibly could to get into the country. As they ran, they were taking off backpacks, and they were pulling out weapons, and they were putting them together. They were unfolding them, and they were pulling them out. They were putting clips in, but they're doing it as they were running. The people on the American side were watching the eruptions, watching the magma and the lava and the smoke and the ash cloud, and they didn't even notice the people who were running towards them. They pointed to the sky and acting as if they were watching fireworks, they were just, like, “Oh wow! Look at that.” And they are pointing over there, and over here and saying things like, “Look at that!” They were looking up, and they did not see any of the people who were rushing towards them. (Because of enemy distractions.) And now they were running up and they were shooting. They were teaming up on people, they were storming properties, but they took nothing. When they went into the buildings and the houses, they took nothing; they just shot and killed the people. They sprinted on and they were moving with skilled intent and military precision. They would come together to a house, they would go in, and you would see gunfire; they would run out, not taking a thing. They were brutal. They showed no mercy. And some carried samurai swords, and they were beheading many people along the way. I saw death and destruction. I saw danger. I saw chaos on the border and it was rushing towards us. It was rushing north. This was on purpose, a “dismantling,” and this was also on purpose, a “distraction”.  Back in Times Square, the broadcaster was informing citizens that spectacular eruptions on the southern border were getting people out of their homes to watch. (The DS MSM involved again to cover up) They were saying, “Hey, folks, you need to go out of your homes and watch these incredible magma fields and watch these incredible volcanic eruptions that are going on. Go outside and watch.” He said, “If you live within 100 miles of the border, you need to go outside immediately and see if you can see them from where you are.” (On foot, they could not go very far without stealing vehicles from their victims. Maybe 100 miles before they were dispersed enough it would be hard to make war on them.) And I said to the man (the Lord) that the newsman is trying to get people outside so they will be killed, and the man nodded. And then he said, “There's more.” Suddenly, we're standing outside the Capitol of Washington, DC. Then I could hear all kinds of noise going on inside the Capitol building. And someone yelling with a bullhorn. But these people are talking about taking the country back (Democrats will join the Communist Chinese and the Islamics like they are now. Obviously they plan to take the country back from the Alliance and Trump) and making people listen. (This fits with their M.O. They can't win by vote.) There were screams that seemed very demonic and just wild coming out of humans. It was like growls and screams and cries. Demonic, almost like banshees. And there was a fence outside the Capitol building. They surrounded it. But suddenly, the police and military came, and they tied ropes, making loops and threw them up on the tops of the fence, like a noose. They were pulling the fences down with all their might. They bent the fences over. (We have been told that military tribunals are being held there at this time. Hence the fence.) And then just as suddenly, the doors of the Capitol pushed open and the congressmen, congresswomen, senators, faces of people I recognized, people who are in power, leadership, elected officials at the federal level. (Satanists, the head of the dragon, devouring the people.) They all came rushing out into the streets, and they were jumping and leaping and stepping over those fences. (This could just symbolize that the leftist DC leadership, some under investigation, will escape and will join and be behind this invasion against the people. As far as I know, they have not met in the Capitol anymore.) And they were armed with guns and clubs. And they began attacking and beating any citizen who was close. (Symbolizing their abuse of the people.) They left this extremely bloody trail. And they pursued people until the people became so exhausted that they dropped from exhaustion, and then they beat them to death. I watched elected officials beat these people to death. (Now I do not think this is what's going to (physically) happen. I think the whole point of it is these people are the ones that make the laws.) This is horrific because they were beating people to death in the streets, and it was getting darker. (Through more demon possession and death.) It was horrific to the point I said to the man, “Why are our elected officials doing this to the people?” Well, this time he didn't move, he didn't nod, he didn't move his head at all, but he said, “There's more to see.” And it suddenly became very, very quiet. (Folks, we now have laws that are changing and shifting, we have people who believe that men can be pregnant, that men can be women, that women can be men, and everything else. And we absolutely know better. We're starting to see culture believe every single lie that's being pushed out there, and then we have new laws being passed to protect those lies. Think about that.) The Congress began to beat these people to death. They were attacking ordinary citizens. I saw families taking pictures outside the capital who were just pummeled and beaten, and the elected officials who were running were covered in blood from the people that they had beaten to death. (Meaning they are guilty of the blood of the people.) And they just kept on going, looking for somebody else to attack and beat on. The man didn't move his head when I said, “Why are elected officials doing this to the people?” He didn't move his head at all. He just simply said, “There's more to see.” (Well, obviously, we know the government is corrupt, and they are compromised, everything it is and was and it's going to be. It's not to be trusted, it's not going to be a help to us at all.) (And the Alliance has gathered all their crimes to prosecute and, in many cases, execute them as is going on now. So, they are desperately trying to save their lawless lives.)   AMERICA The Bison with Two Heads REPENT NOW!!! Daniel Masika - 7/9/25 (David's notes in red) Vision: I saw a pregnant wolf coming out of the desert, and it was ready to deliver, for her time was due. The wolf was hungry for blood and fresh flesh. It looked somewhat like a bear, but no, it was the wolf. The wolf had tears in its eyes, as if on a mission of revenge.  The wolf had two colors: gray and yellow-brown, and stars upon its head. It was a desert wolf, but it crossed mountains and seas covered in snow and arrived in the land of the bison and the bald eagle. (power) I saw one huge bison with two heads: the head of an eagle and the head of a bison. The wolf captured the two-headed bison by the neck, and the bison surrendered without a battle. The wolf drank its blood. The wolf acted like a vampire, carrying a virus, and now the blood of the bison was mixed with the wolf's.  Then the wolf delivered 24 babies; half bison, half wolf. She did not die but was wounded in the neck, while her teeth remained fastened in the throat of the bison. Whenever the wolf turned, the bison turned, for the wolf controlled it. The bison's freedom was taken away, and it was in great pain. It cried out for help, but none came to its rescue. I looked to the east, and when I turned, I saw moving fire like a whirlwind. The fire looked as if it were being carried on wheels of gold. A voice came out of the fire, saying: “The bison with two heads is the nation of the United States of America. The wolf is her enemy (This is Islam), the one she did not destroy when she had the strength.  Now she will cry, for she will be forced to bow and follow the rules and laws of the wolf.  The seed of the bison's freedom will be taken away.  The bison will suffer and long for her freedom, but her tears will become her meat and water, for her walls of protection will be broken. (The Democrats invaded this country for this purpose.) The bison is dancing with her enemy. The bison lies in bed with the ravenous wolf. Unless the bison uproots now the seed and agenda of the wolf, there will be no time. Unless the bison builds her defense now, there will be no time. Unless the bison tears down and destroys the works of the wolf now in her land, she will suffer adversaries and judgment. For the pain of the wolf will be greater than that of the scorpion. Repent and turn, bison. Daniel, go stand on the tower and declare this vision.” As I was coming out of the vision, I heard a loud voice saying:  “We want Sharia Law!”    Sharia Law in America Mena Lee Jones, 11/21/2013 Last week I had a dream. In this dream, I walked into a convenience store with my mother. The store was small, as any convenience store would be. I walked up and down each aisle, browsing the items on the shelves. I noticed that at the end of one aisle, there was a stand with homemade honey. They were in small jars and had handwritten labels on them. I walked over to the stand and saw that at the top, it had a sign made out of cardboard. On this sign, it said, “Support Islam.” At this point, a Middle Eastern man with his wife and two sons walked into the store. I could tell they were Muslim by the clothes the wife was wearing. The peculiar thing was that the two boys (who looked to be around the ages of four and eight), had on kippahs (or yarmulke. For those who do not know, these are the little caps that the Jewish men wear). The father spoke and said to his sons, “Allah requires us to be pure and live holy. We must make sure we are following his rules and living holy.” But all the while he was saying this, the man kept looking over at my breast. I was paying attention to this, and when I would look over at him to make eye contact, he would quickly turn his face to the side as if he was avoiding something despicable. Next, I looked over towards the cashier who was running the store. He looked to be Middle Eastern as well. On the front of the cash register, there was another cardboard sign; it said “Sharia Law.” At this point, I was on the opposite side of the aisle as the man with his family. I blurted out, “Allah is Satan! Mohammed is in hell! Jesus Christ is the only answer!” Everyone was quiet. Finally, the man at the cash register broke the silence. “No one disrespects the holy prophet!” he exclaimed. But I repeated what I said the first time. I looked around the small store and noticed that my mother had left. When I looked towards the door, I saw a mob of men bust through the door. They all had leather whips in their hands. They were coming for me!  The funny thing was, I quickly walked down the aisle and went straight for the door. I walked right through the crowd without them laying a single finger on me. It was as though I was invisible. I thought about the times when Jesus would slip through the angry crowds after he spoke. I found myself outside on the street. I looked ahead and saw my mother walking. I paced myself to catch up with her, but I only got close enough to speak. “Mom, why did you leave?” I asked. “They were going to beat you,” she responded. “But you are safe now.” The strange thing was that she never turned around to look at me; she just kept walking. I noticed the white, almost iridescent dress she was wearing. It glowed softly, like a guide for me. I started looking around the area where I was. That's when I noticed these dog-like creatures roaming the streets. They were black with cat eyes, and seemed to be disappearing and then reappearing in different places. They were evil spirits! I looked up at a billboard. I saw the face of the president on it. Next to his face was a caption that said, “Support Sharia Law.” I stopped. I looked up to the sky and said, “Lord, what are you showing me? Where am I?” At that moment, I saw the top of a familiar building. It was the Empire State Building! I then knew I was in New York. My dream ended.  Saints, roughly two years ago, I had a couple of similar dreams to this one. They involved me being in the midst of Muslims and calling out the name of Jesus as the One true God. In one dream, I even prayed for several Muslim women, and through their healing, they accepted Christ as their Savior. The Lord has let me know that Islam will increase in this nation at a rapid rate. This is in preparation for the beast to come forth. We know that “Chrislam” (the marriage of Christianity and Islam) is on the rise today. We have a pope who is admired by the Muslim people and is pushing the idea of “peace” between the two religions. We have a commander in chief (Barack Obama in 2013) that is a Muslim at heart. (By his own confession to Islamic leaders.) This deceptive spirit is being lorded over our nation. And between that and the continuous increase of immorality and wickedness in this nation, we will see the persecution of Christians just before the Rapture. I want you all to be prepared and stand strong. We must know that as it began, it will end.  We are reverting back to the times of the first-century church. It was a time when the true believers were meeting in homes and secret places, a time when being a Christian was hostile. But remember that our brothers, the Apostles, continued to spread the gospel, no matter what the cost. So we, too, must be bold and confident in Christ. Know your authority (The Word), put on your armor, for we wrestle not against flesh and blood. Let us be encouraged, and therefore encourage one another. The finish line is in sight. Our Bridegroom is coming!   The Assassination of President Trump, Muslim Jihad  Jenni Haan, 8/26/2017 (David's notes in red)  I just woke up from a very disturbing dream. In my dream, my family and I were camping in northern Wisconsin. My husband had taken the kids into town to go to church. I stayed behind at the campground to get everything packed up because it was Sunday, and it was time to go home. I was in my tent packing up suitcases and sleeping bags, and I was just about finished when all of a sudden, I heard the announcer on the radio interrupt the song to come on air and say that the President had been shot by a Muslim radical while he was attending a church service. His voice sounded so sobering, as if he couldn't believe what he was announcing himself. He went on to say that they were able to get close to the President because the Muslims were pretending to be Christians in order to get into churches. The President thought they were people of peace. (Maybe back in 2017 but he knows better now.) Then the announcer's voice went from distressed to hopeless. He was getting more reports of Muslims opening fire, saying that their holy war had started, and it was every man for himself. The triggering event was the assassination of President Trump. Once that happened, every radical Muslim around the world opened fire wherever they were. (The DS, communists, democrats, Islamists, all want to kill Trump and they are not shy about working together to do this. Could this be why there are different assassination dreams about who done it? Also, some of these scenarios may have been prayed down and another not so.) I was scrambling in my tent looking for my 9 mil, and I realized I had just thrown it in my car. All of a sudden, through the door in my tent, I could see that there was a family of Muslims that was starting to open fire with assault rifles, shooting towards my direction. I knew I needed to get to my car, and that is when I woke myself up because my heart was pounding so fast. When I woke up, my adrenaline was pumping because it seemed so real. Northern Wisconsin gets pretty cold quickly, but we were still camping in the fall. The leaves had not quite started changing colors, but the air was very crisp that Sunday morning.   War Brings Death, Destruction, Ruins McKana - 03/07/26 (David's notes in red) Psalm 103:19 (KJV) The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all. Psalm 145:13 (KJV) Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.  We know the Kingdom of Heaven governs heaven and earth and everything in it forever. God is the ultimate authority. There is nothing impossible for God. Nothing happens without the Lord allowing it, and everything He allows has a purpose. Judgment has started to fall to test the faith of all and bring redemption. The Kingdom of Heaven is coming, but first the earth must be cleansed of evil and corruption. All global governments pursue power, money, and territory. Which government in the world serves the Lord? The word of the Lord is trustworthy. The Lord speaks and it is done.  In a previous message, the Lord said, “This Iran deal will lead to world war.” (Spoken in 3-7-26)  And in reality, the war we have long warned about has begun with its consequences. On the morning of March 3 at 6:00 AM, the Lord said, “Iran war will ruin America.”  The Lord has order and sequence in what He does. He has been teaching and preparing His children for what is coming. Everything happening now was foretold centuries ago and revealed again in our time.  Before the start of the war in Iran, I asked the Lord a question about the sequence of events. I asked whether the great shaking would happen before or after Elam. Soon after, the Lord answered: “After.”  The great shaking will happen after the war in Elam. Elam is modern-day Iran.  The war in Iran will soon be followed by a global earthquake, and after the great quake, events will rapidly move toward world war. What This War Will Bring: Mass death and destruction Economic calamities affecting oil prices, trade, groceries, and commodities Depletion of military resources and strain on everyday life Global powers stretched thin and weakened Internal political conflicts and division A divided nation — “A house divided cannot stand.” Internal and external conflicts leading toward collapse Breakdown of diplomacy and mass evacuations Encouragement for other global powers to advance their ambitions  Global Tensions  China over Taiwan China over Japan China over the South China Sea China over Australia China over the West North Korea against South Korea Russia against Ukraine, Europe, and Eurasia Russia against the West Global terrorism Religious friction between Christianity and Islam Step by step, this war will lead to the collapse of governmental systems, anarchy, and world war.  Yes, the bear, the dragon, the serpent, and the scorpion — even fallen angels, called “aliens” — are moving as the end approaches.  Final Warning  Make your last preparations and wait for the Lord. Endure to the end. Repent, Repent, Repent! The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.  Jeremiah 49:34-38 (KJV) 34 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam…    George Washington Saw America Invaded (David's notes in red) I felt the Lord impressed me that George Washington's vision of an invasion from the East was happening with Islamists coming into the US both with permission and illegally. The full vision Washington saw two future wars fought on US soil that were fulfilled: the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. This, of course, gives credibility to the rest of the vision. In the last part of the vision, concerning these end times below, the third invasion appears to have come, and its resulting war comes soon after. Here is George Washington's Vision of the Third and Most Fearful Peril: “Again, I heard the mysterious voice saying, 'Son of the Republic, look and learn'. At this, the dark, shadowy angel placed a trumpet to his mouth and blew three distinct blasts; and taking water from the ocean, he sprinkled it upon Europe, Asia, and Africa”. (God is bringing a Jihadist Invasion from these continents to make war, especially against the Christians and Jews.) “Then my eyes beheld a fearful scene. From each of these continents arose thick black clouds that were soon joined into one, and throughout this mass there gleamed a dark red light by which I saw hordes of armed men. These men, moving with the cloud, marched by land and sailed by sea to America, which country was enveloped in the volume of cloud, and I dimly saw these vast armies devastate the whole country and burn the villages, towns and cities which I had seen springing up”. (A prophet friend in Florida shared a vision he had with me many years ago. He said, 'The Lord took me to the streets of America, and I saw the cities on fire. We have eight million Muslims in America, and when the war breaks out in the Holy Land, and when America gets involved, they will burn America to the ground. I saw Muslim women coming into America and in their inner body parts, vials of anthrax and bio chemicals. I saw 180 million Americans die in a 72-hour period. He also spoke of many people being butchered, as we also have seen in dreams.) I believe the third war Washington saw has started with the Islamic Jihadist invasion into the US from Europe, Asia, and Africa for the purpose of making war on the people and making this a Muslim nation. This video by Avi Lipkin from March 26, 2015, speaks of Muslim radio stations repeating the Saudi demand to make America a Muslim nation. The plan is to bring tens of millions of Muslims into the United States. In this video, it is also mentioned that the plot to destroy Israel and Iran involves using them against each other. The elite are cornered as investigations leak out their crimes, and the Lord has told us they are going to come out fighting with an attack on America soon. The globalist elite have tried to keep the border open to bring in their troops who are joining with the Islamics (and communists) here who are practicing for a jihad. ISIS has flooded into the country with Hamas. Antifa is getting weapons, too. A large rebellion is about to begin. They are also going to spray chemicals and biologicals from the sky, as they have to a lesser extent already been doing. They own the pharmaceutical companies, and they don't make money on healthy people. The chemtrail fleet was built by these monsters. They all claim the population is unsustainable and want to bring it down to a fraction of what it is. Unscreened Muslims are flooding into the US with government permission. Many do not understand the sovereignty of God, Who works ALL things after the counsel of His own will and works ALL things together for the good of those who love Him and even for the good of those who will love Him when they get the fear of the Lord. Many do not understand when I say God ordained chastening the rebellious Church to bring many to repentance through the fear of the Lord. Without this, many would not bear fruit and be saved. He will bring more to repentance than all the lukewarm preachers could ever do. ISIS is in the US by their own admission and planning attacks. ISIS, Al Qaeda, and other Islamic Jihadists are here to make war. Under Obama, a woman witnessed that large buses with whited-out windows were coming over the border with Homeland Security and its logo on the side of them. She decided to speak to one of the drivers at a stop, who told her he was transporting Muslims to cities in the US. ISIS claims it can smuggle nuclear weapons through Nigeria and Mexico into the United States. Nazi Germany's Night of the Long Knives took place in the timeframe of Jade Helm. The Night of the Long Knives (German: Nacht der langen Messer (help·info), sometimes called Operation Hummingbird or, in Germany, the Röhm Putsch, was a purge that took place in Nazi Germany from June 30 to July 2, 1934, when the Nazi regime carried out a series of political murders. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Long_Knives_(1934) Consider my prophet friend's statement from years ago: “We have eight million Muslims in America and when the war breaks out in the Holy Land, and when America gets involved, eight million Muslims will burn America to the ground”. Not so shocking that Egypt has accused Turkey of providing Turkish Passports to members of ISIS, the Islamic State, to facilitate the travel of fighters across the region. Seems the Turkish leadership and the DS leadership may be in agreement to rid the world of Christians and Jews. You who are truly righteous, trust in our God. Remember the three Hebrews. Is this the coming World War 3 we have been expecting to bring in the New World Order tribulation? Back to Washington's vision: “As my ears listened to the thundering of the cannon, clashing of the swords, and the shouts and cries of millions in mortal combat, I again heard the mysterious voice saying, 'Son of the Republic, look and learn.' Where the voice had ceased, the dark, shadowy angel placed his trumpet once more to his mouth and blew a long and fearful blast.” (It is apparent that at this time enough repentance is given to America that God says, “Enough”.) Heaven Intervenes “Instantly, a light as of a thousand suns shone down from above me and pierced and broke into fragments the dark cloud which enveloped America. At the same moment, the angel upon whose head was still showing the word 'Union' and who bore our national flag in one hand and a sword in the other, descended from the heavens attended by legions of white spirits. These immediately joined the inhabitants of America who I perceived were well-nigh overcome but who, immediately taking courage again, closed up their broken ranks and renewed the battle”. (We were told here that 'the inhabitants of America' were warring with the invaders. I prayed about this and felt the Lord tell me, ‘When the Christians fear God and start being a witness of true Christianity, the inhabitants of America will begin to listen and be given victory by the Lord.' I remember when I was a young Christian, and the non-Christians would ask forgiveness when they said bad words or did bad things around you. There was a respect for the Christians and their God. But now that Christianity has sunk so low, this respect is not there. Is it any wonder that God would send chastening before it's too late? These 'inhabitants of America', even though they war with flesh and blood, can have that conscience again through a good witness from us.) “Again, amid the fearful noise of the conflict, I heard the mysterious voice saying, 'Son of the Republic, look and learn.' As the voice ceased, the shadowy angel, for the last time, dipped water from the ocean and sprinkled it upon America. Instantly, the dark cloud rolled back, together with the armies it had brought, leaving the inhabitants of the land victorious”. (Notice the armies, plural, were fighting with the Americans.) “Then once more I beheld the villages, towns, and cities springing up where I had seen them before, while the bright angel, planting the azure standard he had brought in the midst of them, cried with a loud voice, 'While the stars remain and the heaven send down dew upon the earth, so long shall the UNION last.' And taking from his brow the crown on which blazoned the word 'Union', he placed it upon the standard while the people, kneeling down, said, 'Amen.'“ Interpretation “The scene instantly began to fade and dissolve, and I at last saw nothing but the rising, curling vapor I at first beheld. This also disappeared, and I found myself once more gazing upon the mysterious visitor who, in the same voice I had heard before, said, 'Son of the Republic, what you have seen is thus interpreted: Three great perils will come upon the republic. The most fearful for her is the third, but the whole world united shall not prevail against her. (Notice the world Beast, will wage war against her and after chastening her lose.) Let every child of the republic learn to live for his God, his land, and UNION'. Rom.12:18 If it be possible, as much as in you lieth, be at peace with all men. With these words, the vision vanished, and I started from my seat and felt that I had seen a vision wherein had been shown me the birth, the progress, and destiny of the United States. “Such, my friends”, the venerable narrator concluded, “were the words I heard from Washington's own lips, and America will do well to profit by them.” (American Christians repent and turn to the Word that doesn't change quickly to receive mercy and grace from God.)

Jihadists from the Islamic State (IS) group have established a stronghold in Somalia's Puntland region, operating largely undisturbed across a vast mountainous area after setbacks in Iraq and Syria and using it as a base for wider operations in Africa and beyond. Local authorities have launched a major offensive, driving fighters from villages into cave positions amid ongoing clashes and mounting casualties, in a campaign officials say is crucial to restoring stability in Somalia and countering a broader global security threat. A report by Bastien Renouil, Will Swanson and ARTE.

An armed private security guard at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, MI. shot and killed an attacker who rammed his vehicle into the synagogue and opened fire, preventing what could have been a mass casualty event last week, authorities and witnesses said. The incident, which occurred Thursday, March 12, left the attacker dead and one security guard injured, but no congregants, staff or the 140 children attending the synagogue's early childhood learning center were harmed. The attacker, identified by federal authorities as Ayman Mohamad Ghazali, 41, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Lebanon and resident of Dearborn Heights, drove a Ford F-150 through the building's doors around 12:30 p.m., entered a hallway and began firing through his windshield, according to Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard and FBI officials. Security personnel, including the synagogue's in-house armed team, engaged the suspect. Ghazali was fatally shot during the exchange; some reports indicate he may have inflicted a self-inflicted wound as well. The vehicle caught fire, filling the area with smoke. Temple Israel credited its enhanced security measures — implemented last June in response to rising antisemitism and threats to Jewish institutions — with averting disaster. The synagogue hired Danny Phillips, a former police lieutenant with 28 years of experience, including as an advanced firearms instructor, to lead its armed security team. “In response to the evolving realities facing Jewish communities,” the temple said at the time of Phillips' hiring, it took proactive steps to protect members. In an interview following the attack, Jewish firearms instructor Aaron Tobin told journalist Alan Skorski that beefed-up security and armed response were key to stopping the assault. Tobin, who trains members of the Jewish community in the Detroit metro area, said Jews across the region are increasingly arming themselves and seeking proper firearms training amid heightened threats. “Jews across Detroit's Metro area are getting armed and trained in proper gun use,” Tobin said. He issued a stark warning to potential attackers from Dearborn, a city with a large Arab American population: “Stay away from the Jewish community if they know what's good for them.” The FBI is leading the investigation into the incident, which Special Agent in Charge Jennifer Runyan described as “a targeted act of violence against the Jewish community.” Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer condemned the attack as “hate, plain and simple,” and expressed relief that swift action by security prevented further harm. Temple Israel, one of the largest Reform synagogues in the U.S. with over 12,000 members, has been a focal point for the local Jewish community. No additional injuries beyond the security guard were reported, though some first responders were treated for smoke inhalation.

It's hard to keep up with developments in the war with the apocalyptic Iranian regime that has brutally repressed its own people and endlessly threatened, and periodically attacked, ours for nearly fifty years.  The question is whether a man who has been at the heart of that government and directly responsible for many of its horrifying atrocities – including the mass murder of countless Iranians who responded to President Trump's call to overthrow the ayatollahs – is a man with whom we now can safely and prudently do business. Mohammed Ghalibaf may be the Iranian parliament's speaker. But he's also a top general in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps – a committed and dangerous jihadist. Let us pray that President Trump is once again buying time to bring to bear the Marines and other forces needed to prevent, not enable, further threats from Iran.  This is Frank Gaffney.

   World... meet Bobby Witt Jr!   Monday night at the World Baseball Classic the Royals superstar put on a show for the ages in a game that could only be described as Madness in March.  USA vs Mexico... heck, there was even a fight in the stands.  This was wild and the reaction from people in sports and politics and everyone in between was pretty much total shock for how Bobby Baseball plays the game.    The Chiefs had a wildly great day off the field as Travis Kelce is returning, the Super Bowl MVP runningback is signed to the team and KC signs a couple defensive players too.  What a haul and we'll tell you why it means the Chiefs are about to change the way they play.    Bill Self got his team on that glass court at the Big 12 tourney and he says it just isn't the same.    The Super Bowl parade shooter believed to have killed Lisa Lopez Galvan is about to walk free and people are shocked.  I'm not... what did you expect in KCMO?    President Trump says the air raid in Iran is a total success and this thing could wrap up sooner than later if they can figure out a succession plan.  The jihadist that tossed bombs on the streets is the child of Afghan immigrants that live in a $2.5 million house in the suburbs.    There was a terrible accident with a teacher and his students in Georgia and now the widow wants authorities to drop charges against the kids.  Another famous company leaves California and Uber makes a smart change for female riders

America's Operation Epic Fury and Israel's Roaring Lion were courageous feats that saved the world from a nuclear-armed Iran, the most dangerous state sponsor of terrorism. In today's episode, your Terrorist Therapist®, Carole Lieberman, M.D., takes you inside the Iran-America-Israel war: the secret intel for why it began when it did, why you can't negotiate with terrorists (except in some cases, like for the Israeli hostages), and more. Not all Iranians are dancing in the streets, some are crying on state TV over Khamenei's death.  But, Iran'sregime is like a wounded animal now, literally raising the Red Flag of Revenge and striking back ferociously at Israel and American bases in the Middle East. You will hear how this is backfiring. Jihadists are willing to die and become martyrs for Allah… but wait until they reach the afterlife and discover it's '72 white raisins'… not virgins. (You'll understand when you listen.) However, the biggest threat may not be in the Middle East, it's likely to be at home in America… when the terror cells, and their ‘useful idiots' wake up to avenge Iran. (www.terroristtherapist.com)

Last night, I had the opportunity to speak virtually alongside a renowned freedom-fighter named Mike Arnold with Nigerian-Americans now living in Houston and best described as foreign-born American patriots. These men and women appreciate intensely how precious – and how perishable – are the liberties most of us who had the God-given privilege of being born in this country take for granted.  They also recognize the mortal threat to Texas and the rest of the United States posed by adherents to Islam's totalitarian prescription for jihadist conquest known as sharia. After all, such sharia-supremacists have for years been genocidally murdering their fellow Christians in Nigeria with impunity.  Nigerian expatriates who are now U.S. citizens are especially motivated to vote for the Texas Republican primary's Proposition 10 which calls for prohibiting sharia in that state. Every patriotic Texan should without fail do the same. BanSharia.com.  This is Frank Gaffney.

Courage is not loud. Sometimes it is a 13-year-old girl standing in a courtroom, promising to defend dignity no matter the cost.  Noura Ghazi's life was shaped by detention, disappearance, and resistance long before she became a human rights lawyer. Growing up in Damascus with a father repeatedly imprisoned for political opposition, she chose early to confront injustice through law rather than violence. From defending political prisoners during the Syrian revolution to marrying her husband inside a prison and later founding No Photo Zone, Noura has built a life rooted in resilience, civil rights advocacy, and unwavering belief in human dignity.  Now living in France as a political refugee, she continues her work supporting families of detainees, survivors of torture, and the disappeared. Her story is not simply about survival. It is about choosing mindset over fear, purpose over despair, and love even in the shadow of loss. This conversation invites reflection on what it means to remain Unstoppable when freedom, justice, and even safety are uncertain.  Highlights:  00:07:06 – A defining childhood moment reveals how a confrontation in a Syrian courtroom shaped Noura's lifelong commitment to defending political prisoners.  00:12:51 – The unpredictable nature of Syria's exceptional courts exposes how justice without standards creates generational instability and fear.  00:17:32 – The emotional aftermath of her father's release illustrates how imprisonment reshapes entire families, not just the person detained.  00:23:47 – Noura's pursuit of human rights education demonstrates how intentional learning becomes an act of resistance in restrictive systems.  00:32:10 – The early days of the Syrian revolution clarify how violence escalates when peaceful protest is met with force.  00:37:27 – Her marriage inside a prison and the global advocacy campaign that followed reflect how personal love can fuel public courage.  00:50:59 – A candid reflection on PTSD reveals how trauma can coexist with purpose and even deepen empathy for others.  About the Guest:   Noura Ghazi's life has been shaped by a single, unwavering mission: to defend dignity, freedom, and justice in the face of dictatorship. Born in Damascus into a family deeply rooted in political resistance, she witnessed firsthand the cost of speaking out when her father was detained, tortured, and disappeared multiple times. That lived experience became her calling. Since 2004, she has defended political prisoners before Syria's Supreme Security State Court, and when the Syrian revolution began in 2011, she fully committed herself to supporting detainees and the families of the disappeared. Even after her husband, activist Bassel Khartabil Safadi, was detained, disappeared, and ultimately executed, she continued her advocacy with extraordinary resolve.  Forced into exile in 2018 after repeated threats and arrest warrants, Noura founded NoPhotoZone to provide legal aid, psychological support, and international advocacy for victims of detention, torture, enforced disappearance, and displacement across Syria, Lebanon, and Turkey. Her mission is not only to seek justice for the imprisoned and the missing, but to restore agency and hope to families living in uncertainty and trauma. Recognized globally for her courage and leadership, Noura remains committed to amplifying the voices of the silenced and ensuring that even in the darkest systems, human rights and human dignity are never forgotten.  https://nouraghazi.org/   https://nophotozone.org/   Book – Waiting by Noura Ghazi - https://www.lulu.com/shop/noura-ghazi-safadi/waiting/paperback/product-1jz2kz2j.html?page=1&pageSize=4   About the Host:  Michael Hingson is a New York Times best-selling author, international lecturer, and Chief Vision Officer for accessiBe.

Michael Hingson  00:09 Well, welcome everyone to another episode of unstoppable mindset. Today, we get to chat with Nora Ghazi, who lives in, I believe, France right now. She was born in Syria. She'll tell us about that, and she has had an interesting life, and I would say, a life that has had lots of challenges and some treachery along the way. But we'll get to all of that, and I will leave it to her to describe most of that, but I just want to tell you all we really appreciate you being here and hope you enjoy the episode. So Nora, how are you? Noura Ghazi  00:49 Thank you, Michael, for having me in this great broadcast, doing well. Michael Hingson  00:57 Well, there you go. Well, why don't we start? I love to start this way. Why don't you tell us kind of about the early Nora, growing up and so on, where you grew up, what anything you want to talk about, regarding being a younger person and all of that and and however we want to proceed, we'll go from there. Noura Ghazi  01:17 Okay, so since I was a child, my childhood wasn't like normal, like all the kids at my age, because my father was like a leader in opposition party against the previous Syrian regime. Michael Hingson  01:34 So you were born in Syria? Noura Ghazi  01:37 Yes, I work in Damascus. I'm from Damascus, but I have some like multiple origin that I'm proud of. But yes, I'm from Damascus. So since I was five years old, my father was disappeared and because he was wanted with other, like fellows at his party and other, let's say aliens, parties of opposition against the previous regime. So he disappeared for six years, then he was detained and transferred to what was named the supreme security state court. So it was during my adultness, let's say so since I was a child like I had at that time, only one sister, which is one year younger than me, we were moving a lot. We had no place to live. So my mother used to take us each few days to stay at some, someone place, let's say so it caused to us like changing schools all, all the time, which means changing friends. So it was very weird. And at that age, okay, I I knew the words of like cause, the words of leader or dictatorship. I used to say these words, but without knowing what does it mean. Then, when my father detained, it was his ninth detention. Actually, my mother was pregnant with my brother, so my brother was born while my father was in prison. And while he was in prison, the last time he disappeared for one year, three months, he was in like a kind of isolation in security facility. Then he was referred to this court. So in one of the sessions of the trials, I had a fight with the officer who, like who was leading the patrol that bring my father and other prisoners of conscience. So at the end of this fight, I promised my father and the officer that, okay, I will grow up and become a human rights lawyer and defend political prisoners, which I did at the end. Michael Hingson  04:05 So what? What was the officer doing? He was taking people to the court. Noura Ghazi  04:12 Yes, because Okay, so there is many kind of prisons now. They became like, more familiar to like public opinion because of, like 15 years of violence in Syria. So there was, like the the central civil prison in Damascus, which we call ADRA prison, and we have said, NIA jail, military prison. So those two prisons, they were like, holding detainees in them. So they they used to bring detainees to the court in busses, like a kind of military busses, with patrol of like civil police and military police. So the officer was like. Heading the patrol that was bringing my fathers from other prison. Michael Hingson  05:05 So you, so you, what was the fight about with the officer and your father and so on? What? How? Well, yeah, what was the fight? Noura Ghazi  05:16 It's very good question, although at that time, it was a very like scary situation, but now I laughed a lot about it. Okay, so they used to to catch all the prisoners in one chain with the handcuffs. So we used to come to hug and kiss my father before entering the court. So I was doing what I used to do during the trials, or just upon the trials, and then one of the policemen, like pushed me away. So I got nervous, and my father got nervous. So the officer provoked me. He was like a kind of insulting that my father is a detainee, and he is like he's coming to this court. So I, like I replied that I'm proud of my father and his friends what they are doing. So he somehow, he threats me to detain me like my father, and at that time, I was very angry, and I curse the father Assad just in on the like in the door, at the door of the court, and there was people and and Like all the the policemen, like they were just pointing their weapon to me, and there was some moments of silence. Then they took all the detainees into the court. So at this moment, while I'm entering the court behind them, I said, I will grow up and become a human rights lawyer to defend political prisoners. Michael Hingson  07:02 What did the officers say to that? Noura Ghazi  07:06 Because they used to look to us as because we are. We were against father Assad and the dictatorship, so they used to see us, even if we are kids, as enemies. Michael Hingson  07:22 Yeah, so the officer but, but he didn't detain you. I was Noura Ghazi  07:27 only 13 years, yeah, okay, they used to to arrest the kids, but they didn't. Michael Hingson  07:37 So did the officer react to your comment? You're going to grow up to become a civil rights lawyer? Noura Ghazi  07:43 He was shocked, was he? But I don't know if he knew that I become a human yes, there at the end, yeah. Michael Hingson  07:54 And meanwhile, what did your father do or say? Noura Ghazi  07:58 He was shocked also, but he was very proud, and until now, he like every time, because I'm also like, very close to to his friends who I used to visit in prison. Then I become a human rights lawyer, and I was the youngest lawyer in Syria. I was only 22 years old when I started to practice law. So during the the revolution in Syria, which started in 2011 some of his friends were detained, and I was their lawyer also. So I'm very close to them. So until now, they remember this story and laugh about it, because no one could curse or say anything not good about father Assad or or the family, even in secret. So it's still, like, very funny, and I'm still like, stuck somehow in, like, in this career and the kind of activism I'm doing, because just I got angry of the officer 30 years ago. So at this, at that moment, I've decided what I will be in the future. I'm just doing it well. Michael Hingson  09:20 From everything I've read, it sounds like you do a good job. Noura Ghazi  09:25 I cannot say it's a job, because usually you you do a job, you get paid for your job, you go at a certain time and come back at a certain time. You do certain tasks. But for me, it's like a continuing fight, non violent fight, of course, for dignity, for freedom, for justice, right, for reveal the truth of those who were disappeared and got missing. So yes, until now, I'm doing this, so I don't have that. Are the luxury to to be paid all the time, or to be to have weekends or to work until like certain hour at night. I cannot say I'm enjoying it, but this is the reason why I'm still alive, because I have a motive to help and support other people who are victims to dictatorship and violence. Michael Hingson  10:25 So your father went into court and what happened? Noura Ghazi  10:31 He was sentenced. At the end, he was sentenced to three years in prison. And it's a funny story, another funny story, actually, because, like the other latines at that at that trial, like it was only my father and other two prisoners who sent who were sentenced to three years in prison, while other people, the minimum was seven years in Prison, until 15 years in prison. So my mother and us, we felt like we are embarrassed and shy because, okay, our father will will be released like in few months, but other prisoners will stay much longer. So it's something very embarrassing to our friends who whom their fathers got sentenced to like more. Michael Hingson  11:30 Did you ever find out why it was only three years? Noura Ghazi  11:33 We don't know because it's an exceptional court, so it's up to the judge and the judge at that time, like it's it's very similar to what is happening now and what happened after 2011 so it's a kind of continuing reality in in Syria since like 63 which was the first time my father was detained. It was in 63 just after the what they called the eighth March revolution. So my father was only 11 years old when he was detained the first time because he participated in a protest. So it's up to the judge. It's not like a real court with like the the fair trial standards. So it's it's only once you know, the judge said the sentences for each one. So two prisoners got confused. They couldn't differentiate like Which sentence to whom, so they asked like again, so he forgot, so he said them again in different way. So it's something like, very spontaneously, yeah, very just moody, not any standard. Michael Hingson  12:51 Well, so Did your father then serve the three years and was released. Or what happened? Noura Ghazi  12:58 He was released on the day that he should be released, he disappeared for few days. We didn't know what happened. Then he was released. Finally he came. We used to live with my my grandma, so I was the one who opened the door, and I saw just my father. So we we knew later that okay, he was moved again to a security facility because he refused to sign a paper that say that he will not practice any oppositional action against the authority. So he refused, yeah, yeah. Michael Hingson  13:43 Well, I mean, I'm sure there's, there's a continuing story, what happened to him after that. So he came home, Noura Ghazi  13:53 he came out to my grandma. It was a big surprise, like full of joy, but full of tears as well. Michael Hingson  14:01 And you're you were 16 now, right? Noura Ghazi  14:04 I was when he was raised. I was 15, yeah, okay, yeah. And my sister was 14. My brother was two years and a half, so for him, okay, the father is this person that we visit behind bars every Monday, not this one who stay with us. So for him, it was weird. For my brother, he was very like little kid to understand. Then my father went to to see his parents as well. Then we came back to our apartment that we couldn't live more than few months because my father was detained. So at this night, everything was very, very, very new, like because before the three years he he was disappeared for six years, so there was. Nine years. We don't live with my father, so my brother used to sleep just next to my mom, actually my sister and me, but okay, we were like a teenager, so it's okay. So my brother couldn't sleep. Because why he keep, he kept asking why my father is sleeping with us while he's not with his friend at that place. And he was traumatized for many days. But usually when, like a political prisoner released, usually, like, we have a kind of two, three weeks of people visiting the family to say, Okay, it's it's good. We're happy for you that he was released. So the first two, three weeks were full of people and like, social events, etc. Then the, the real problem started. So my father studied law, but he was fired from university for security reasons at the the last year of his study, and as he was sentenced so he couldn't work, my mother used to work, and so like suddenly he started to feel that okay, He's not able to work. He's not able to fulfill the needs of his family. He's not able to spend on the family. The problems between him and my mother started. We couldn't as like my sister and me as teenagers. We couldn't really accept him. We couldn't see that. He's the same person that we used to visit in prison. He was very friendly. We used to talk about everything in life, including the very personal things that usually daughters don't speak with fathers about it. But then he became a father, which we we we weren't used to it, and he was shocked also. So I can say that this, this situation, at least on emotional and psychological level, for me, it lasted for 15 years. I couldn't accept him very well, even my my sister and and the brother and it happens to all like prisoners, political prisoners, especially who spent long time in prison. Michael Hingson  17:32 So now is your father and well, are your father and your mother still alive? Or are they around? Noura Ghazi  17:41 They are still alive. They are still in Damascus, Michael Hingson  17:44 and they're still in Damascus. Yes, how is I guess I'll just ask it now, how is Syria different today than it was in the Assad regime, Noura Ghazi  17:56 like most of Syrians, and now we should differentiate about what Syrians will talk. We're talking so like those Syrians, like the majority of Syrians, and I'm meaning here, I'm sorry, I shouldn't be very direct. Now, the Arab Sunni Syrians, most of them, they are very happy. They are calling what happened in in last eight December, that it's the deliberation of Syria, but for other minorities, like religious or ethnic minorities, of course, it's almost the same. For me, I feel that okay, we have the same dictatorship now, the same corruption, the same of like lack of freedom of expression. But the the added that we have now is that we have Islamist who control Syria. We have extremists who control Syria. They intervene even in personal freedoms. They they are like, like, they are committing crimes against minorities, like it started last March, against alawed. It started last July, against Druze. Now it is starting against Kurdish, and unfortunately, the international community turning like an attorney, like, okay. They are okay with with it, because they want, like their own interest, their own benefits. They have another crisis in the world to take care and to think about, not Syria. So the most important for the international community is to have a stable situation in Syria, to be like, like, no kind of like, no fight zone in the Middle East, and they don't care about Syrian people. And this is very frustrating for those who. Who have the same beliefs that I have. Michael Hingson  20:04 So in a lot of ways, you're saying it hasn't, hasn't really changed, and only the, only the faces and names have changed, but not the actions or the results Noura Ghazi  20:16 the faces and names, and most important, the sects, has changed. So it was very obvious for me that most of Syrians, they don't mind to be controlled by dictator. They only mind what is the sect of this dictator? Michael Hingson  20:35 Unfortunately. Well, yeah. Well, let's go back to you. So your father was released, and you had already made your decision about what you wanted to be, what how does school work over there? Did you go to a, what we would call a high school? Or how does all that work? Noura Ghazi  20:58 Yeah, high school, I was among the like the student who got the highest score in Damascus. I was the fourth one on Damascus when I finished. We call it back like Baccalaureate in Syria, which came from French. And I studied law, and I was also very, like, really hard, hard study person. So I was graduated in four years. Actually, nobody in Syria used to finish studying law in Damascus University only in four years. Like some people stayed more than 10 years because it it was very difficult, and it's different than like law college or law school or university of law, depending on the country, than other countries, because we only like study law. Theoretically, we don't have any practice because we were 1000s of students, it was the like the maximum university that include students. And I registered immediately in the Bar Association in Damascus, and I started because we have, like, a kind, it's, it's similar to stage for two years, like under the supervision of another lawyer who was my uncle at the first and then we we have to choose a topic in certain domain of flow, to write a kind of book which is like, it's similar to thesis, to apply it, to approve it, and then to have the kind of interactive examination, then we have the the final graduated. So all of them to be like a practice lawyer. It's around six years, a little bit more. So my specialist was in criminal law, and my thesis, what about what we call the the impossible crime. It was complicated topic. I have to say that in Syria at that time, I'm talking about end of of 90s, beginning of 2000 so we don't have any kind of study related to human rights. We weren't allowed even to spell this word like human rights. So then in 2005 and 2006 I started to study human rights under international laws related to human rights in Jordan. So I became like a kind of certified human rights defenders and the trainer also, Michael Hingson  23:47 okay, and so you said you started practice and you finished school when you started practice, when you were 22 Yes, okay, I'm curious what, what were things like after September 11, of course, you know, we had the terrorist attacks and so on. Did any of that affect anything over in Syria, where you lived, Noura Ghazi  24:15 of course, like, we stayed talking, watching the news for like four months, like until now we remember, like September 11. But you know, I now when I remember, it was a shock, usually for the Arab world, or Arab people like America is against the Arab world. So everything happened against it was like, this was like, let's say 2030, years ago. Everything that caused any harm to America, they celebrate it. So that. At that time, I was 19 years old, and okay, it's the first time we we hear that a person who was terrorist do like is doing this kind in in us, which is like a miracle for us. But then I started to to think, okay, they it's not an army. They are. There are civilians. Those civilians could be against the the policies of the US government. They could be like, This is not a kind of fight for freedom or for rights or for any like, really, like, fair cause. This is a terrorist action against civilians. And then we started, I'm very lucky because I'm from very educated family. So we started to think about, like, okay, bin Laden. And like, which we have a president from Qaeda now in Syria, like, you can imagine how I feel now. Like, I Okay, all the world is against al Qaeda, and they celebrated that the President in Syria is from al Qaeda. So it's, it's very it's, it's, really, it's not logical at all. But the funniest thing that happened, because, like, the name of Usama bin Laden, was keeping on every like, every one tongue. So I have my my oldest uncle. His name is Usama, and he lives in Germany for 40, more than 40 years, actually. So my brother was a child, and he started to cry, and he came to my mother and asked her, I'm afraid, is my uncle the same Usama? So we were laughing all, and we said, No, it's another Usama. This is the Usama. This is Osama bin Laden, who is like from is like a terrorist group, etc. But like this unfortunate incident started to bring to my mind some like the concept of non violence, the concept of that, okay, no civilian in any place in the world should be harmed for any reason, Because we never been told this in Syria and mostly in most of of countries like the word fight is very linked to armed fights, which I totally disagree with. Michael Hingson  27:56 Well, the when people ask me about September 11 and and so on. One of the things that I say is this wasn't a religious war. This wasn't a religious attack. This was terrorist. This was, I put it in terms of of Americans. These were thugs who decided they wanted to have their way with people. But this is not the way the Muslim the Islamic religion is there is peaceful and peace loving as as anyone, and we really need to understand that. And I realize that there are a lot of people in this country who don't really understand all about that, and they don't understand that. In reality, there's a lot of peace loving people in the Middle East, but hopefully we'll be able to educate people over time, and that's one of the reasons I tell the story that I do, because I do believe that what happened is 19 people attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and so on, and they don't represent the the typical viewpoint of most people, religious wise in the Middle East. And I can understand why a lot of people think that the United States doesn't like Arabs, and I'm not sure that that's totally true, but I can appreciate what you're saying. Noura Ghazi  29:28 Yeah, I'm talking about specific communities actually, who they are, like totally against Israel, and they believe that you us is supporting Israel. So that's that's why they have their like this like attitude towards us and or like that US is trying to invest all the resources in the in the Middle East, etc. But what you were mentioning. Is really very important, because those 19 persons, they like kind of they, they cause the very bad reputation for for Muslims, for Middle Eastern because for for for other people from other countries, other culture or other religion, they will not understand that, okay, that, as you said, they don't represent Muslims. And in all religions, we have the extremist and we have those peaceful persons who keep their their religion as a kind of direct connection with God. They respect everyone, and normally in in in Syria, most of of the population like this, but now having a terrorist as a President, I'm not able to believe how there is a lot of Syrians that support him. Mm, hmm. Because when Al Qaeda started in Syria at the beginning, under the name of japet Al Nusra, then, which with July, who is now Ahmad Al shara, was the leader, and he's the leader of the country now most of Syrians, especially the the the Sunni Syrians, were against this, like terrorist groups, because the most harm they cause is for for Sunnis in Syria, because all other minorities, they will think about every Sunni that they, He or she, like, believe and behave like those, which is totally not true. Michael Hingson  31:47 Yeah, I hear you. Well, so September 11 happened, and then eventually you started doing criminal law. And if we go forward to what 2011 with the Syrian revolution? Yeah, and so what was, what was that revolution about? Noura Ghazi  32:10 It was okay. It started as a reaction against detaining kids from school. Okay, of course, this like the Syrian people, including me, we were very affected and inspired about what was happening in Egypt and Tunisia. But okay, so the security arrested and tortured those kids in their south of Syria. So people came out in demonstration to ask for their freedom and the security attack those protesters with, like, with weapons, so couple of persons died. So then it was, it started to be like a kind of revolution, let's say, yeah, the the problem for me, for lot of people like me, that the the previous Syrian regime was very violent against protesters and the previous president, Bashar Assad, he refused to listen to to to those people, he started to, like dissipated from the reality. So this like, much violence that was against us, like, I remember during some protest, there was not like, small weapon toward us. There was a tank that bombing us as protesters, peaceful, non violent, non armed protesters. So this violence led to another violence, like a kind of reaction by those who defected from the army, etc. And here, my father used to say, when the opposition started to to carry weapon in a country that, like the majority of it, is from certain religion, this could lead to a kind of Jihadist methodology. And this is what happened. So for for people like us, which we are very little comparing of like, the other beliefs of other people like we were, we started to be against the Syrian regime, then against the jihadist groups, then against that, like a kind of international, certain International, or, let's say original intervention, like Iran and Russia. So we were fighting everywhere, and no one. No one wanted us because those like educated, secular, non violent people, they. Form a kind of danger for every one of those parties. But what happened with me is that I met my late husband during a revolution at the very early of 2011 and having the relationship with me was my own revolution. So I was living on parallel like two revolution, a personal one and the public one. And then, like he was detained just two weeks before our our wedding. He was disappeared, actually, for nine months, then he was moved to the same prison that my father was in, to the central prison in Damascus that we got married in prison by coincidence. I don't know if coincidence is the right word in this situation, but my late husband was a very well known programmer and activist. So we were he was kind of, let's say, famous, and I was a lawyer and lawyer that defend human rights defenders and political prisoners. And the husband was detained, so I used to visit him in prison and visit other prisoners that I was their lawyers. And because my like, we have this personal aspect that okay, the couple that got married in prison and that, okay, I'm activist as a lawyer, and my late husband was a well known programmer. So we created a very huge campaign, a global campaign. So we invested this campaign to like, to shed the light about detention, torture, disappearance, exceptional courts, then, like also summary execution in Syria. So then, after almost three years of visiting him regularly, he disappeared again in 2015 and in 2017 I knew that he was sentenced to death, and I knew the exact date of his execution, just in 2018 which was two days ago. It was October 5. So this is what happened then. I had to leave Syria in 2018 so I left to Lebanon. Michael Hingson  37:27 So you left Syria and went to Lebanon? Noura Ghazi  37:33 Yes, the The plan was to stay only six months in Lebanon because I was wanted and I was threatened like I lived a terrible life, really, like lot of Syrians who were activists also, but the plan was that I will stay in Lebanon for six months, then I will leave to to UK because I had A scholarship to get a master in international law. But only two months after I left to Lebanon, I decided to stay in Lebanon to establish the organization that I'm I'm leading until now, which was a project between my late husband and me. Its name is no photo zone, so it was a very big decision, but I'm not regrets. Michael Hingson  38:23 You, you practice criminal law, you practiced human rights, you visited your your fiance, as it were, and then, well, then your husband in prison and so on. Wasn't all of that pretty risky for you? Noura Ghazi  38:42 Yes, very risky. I, I lived in under like, different kind of risk. Like, okay, I have the risk that, okay, I'm, I'm doing my activism against the previous regime publicly because I also, I was co founder of the First Family or victim Association in Syria families for freedom. So we, we were, like, doing a kind of advocacy in Europe, and I used to come back to Syria, so I was under this risk, but also I was under the risk of the like, going to prison, because the way to prison and the prison itself were under bombing. It was in like a point that separate the opposition militias and the regime militias. So they were bombing each other and bombing the prison and bombing the way to prison. So for three years, and specifically for like, in, let's say, 2014 specifically, I was among, like, I was almost the only lawyer that visited the prison, and I, I didn't mind this. I faced death more than 100 time, only on the way to prison, two times the person next to me in the like transportation. It's a kind of small bus. He died and fell down on me, but I had a strong belief that I will not die, Michael Hingson  40:21 and then what? Why do you think that they never detained you or or put you in prison? Do you have any thoughts? Noura Ghazi  40:29 I had many arrests weren't against me, but each time there was something that solve it somehow. So the first couple of Earths weren't actually when, when my late husband was detained, he he made a kind of deal with them that, okay, he will give all the information, everything about his activism in return. They, they canceled the arrest warrant against me. Then literally, until now, I don't know how it was solved. Like I, I had to sleep in garden with my cats for many nights. I i spent couple of months that I cannot go to any like to family, be house or to friend house, because I will cause problem for them, my my parents, my brother and sister, and even, like my sister, ex, until like just three months before the fall of the Syrian regime, they were under like, investigation By the security, lot of harassment against them so, but I don't know, like, I'm, I'm survive for a reason that I don't really realize how, Michael Hingson  41:52 wow, it, it's, it certainly is pretty amazing. Did you ever write a book or anything about all of this, Noura Ghazi  42:02 I used to write, always the only book like, let's say, literature or emotional book. It was about love in prison. Its name is waiting. And I wrote this book in English and basil. My late husband translated it. Sorry. I wrote it in Arabic, and Basset translated it into English in prison. So it was a process of smuggling the poems in Arabic and smuggling the them in English, again out of the prison. And we published the book online just after basil disappearance in 2015 then we created the the hard copies, and I did the signature in in Beirut in, like, early 2018 but like, it's, it's online, and it's a very, like light book, let's say very romantic. It's about love in prison. I'm really keen to write again, like maybe a kind of self narrative or about the stories that I lived and i i I heard during my my journey. Unfortunately, like to write needs like this a little stable situation, but I did write many like legal or human rights book or like guides or studies, etc. Michael Hingson  43:34 Now is waiting still available online? Noura Ghazi  43:37 Yes, it's still available online. Michael Hingson  43:40 Okay? It would be great if you could, if you have a picture of the book cover, if you could send that to me, because I'd like to put that in the notes. I would appreciate it if you would, okay, for sure. But anyway, so the the company you founded, what is it called Noura Ghazi  44:02 it's a non government, a non profit organization. Its name is no photo zone. Michael Hingson  44:07 And how did you come up with that name? Noura Ghazi  44:12 It was Vasil who come up with this name, because our main focus is on prisoners of conscious and disappeared. So for him, it was that okay, those places that they put disappeared in them. They are they. There is no cameras to show the others what is happening. So we should be the the like in the place of cameras to tell the world what is happening. So that's why no photos on me, like, means that prisons or like unofficial detention centers, because they're it's an all photo zone, right? Michael Hingson  44:54 And no photo zone is is still operating today. Noura Ghazi  44:58 It's still operating. We are extending our work, although, like we have lots of financial challenges because of, like, funds issues, but for us, the main issue, we provide legal services to victims of torture, detention, disappearance and their families. So we operate in Syria, Lebanon and Turkey. We are a French woman led organization, but we have registration in Turkey and Syria, and like in seven years now, almost seven years, we could provide our services to more than 3000 families who most of them are women, and they are responsible about kids who they don't have fathers. So we defend political prisoners. We search the disappeared. We provide the legal services related to personal and civil status. We provided the services related to identification documents, because it's a very big issue in Syria. Beside we provide rehabilitation, like full rehabilitation programs for survivors of detention or torture, and also advocacy. Of course, it's a very important part of our our work, even with the lack of fund, we've decided in the team, because most of the team, or all the team, they they were themselves victims of detention, or family members of victims, even the non Syrian because we have many non Syrian member in the team. So for us, it's a cause. It's not like a work that we're doing and getting paid. So we're, we're suffering this this year with the fund issues, because there is a lot of change related to the world and Syrian issues, which affected the fund policies. So hopefully we'll be, we'll be fine next year, hopefully, and we're trying to survive with our beneficiaries this year, Michael Hingson  47:02 yeah, well, you, you started receiving, and I assume no photo zone started receiving awards, and eventually you moved out of Lebanon. Tell me more about all of that. Noura Ghazi  47:16 During my journey, I I got many international recognition or a word, including two by Amnesty International. But after almost two years, like just after covid, like the start of covid, I was thinking that I should have another residence permit in another country because, like, it became very difficult for Syrians to get a residence in Lebanon. So I I moved to Turkey, and I was between Lebanon and Turkey. Then I got a call from the French Embassy in Turkey telling me that there is a new kind of a word, which is Marianne award, or Marianne program, that initiated by the French president. And they it's for human rights defenders across the world, and they will give this award for 15 human rights defender from 15 country. And I was listening, I thought they want me to nominate someone. Then they told me that the French government are honored to choose you as a Syrian human rights defender. So it was a program for six months, so I moved to Paris with my cat and dog. Then they extended the program and to become nine months. And at the almost at the end of the program, the both of Lebanese and Turkish authorities refused to renew my residence permit, so I had to stay in France to apply for asylum and a political refugee currently. Michael Hingson  49:10 And so you're in France. Are you still in Paris? Noura Ghazi  49:13 I'm still yes in Paris. I learned French very fast, like in four months. Okay, I'm not perfect, but I learned French. Michael Hingson  49:25 So what did your dog and cat think about all that? Sorry, what did your dog and cat think about moving to France? Noura Ghazi  49:33 They are French, actually, originally, they are friends. Michael Hingson  49:36 Oh, there you go. Noura Ghazi  49:38 My, my poor dog had like he he was English educated, so we used to communicate in English. Then when I was still in Lebanon, I thought, okay, a lot of Syrians are coming to my place, and they don't speak English, so I have to teach him Arabic. Then we moved to Turkish. So I had to teach him Turkish. Then we came to. France. So now my dog understand more than four languages, Michael Hingson  50:06 good for him, and and, of course, your cat is really the boss of the whole thing, right? Noura Ghazi  50:12 Of course, she is like, the center of the universe, Michael Hingson  50:16 yeah, yeah, just ask her. She'll tell you. And she's Noura Ghazi  50:20 very white, so she is 14 years. Oh, it's old, yes. Michael Hingson  50:29 Well, I have a cat we rescued in 2015 we think she was five then. So we think that my cat is 15 going on 16. So, and she moves around and does very well. Noura Ghazi  50:46 Yeah, my cat as well. Michael Hingson  50:49 Yeah. Well, that's the way it should be. So with all the things that you've been dealing with and all the stress, have you had? Noura Ghazi  50:59 PTSD, yes, I started, of course, like it's the minimum, actually, I have PTSD and the TSD, and I started to feel, or let's say, I could know that the what is happening with me is PTSD two years ago. I before, like, couple of months before, I started to feel like something unusual in my body, in my mind. At the beginning, we thought there is a problem in the brain. Then the psychologist and psychiatrist said that it's a huge level of PTSD, which is like the minimum, and like, we should start the journey of of treatment, which is like the behavior treatment and medical treatment as well. Like, some people could stay 10 years. Some people need to go to hospital. It's not the best thing, but sometimes I feel I'm grateful that I'm having PTSD because I'm able to deal with people who are in the same situation. I could feel them, understand them, so I could help them more, because I understand and as a human rights defender and like victim of lot of kind of violations, so I'm very aware about the like, let's call it the first aid, the psychological first aid support. And this is helpful somehow. Okay, I'm suffering, but this suffering is useful for others Michael Hingson  52:47 well and clearly, you are at a point where you can talk about it, which says a lot, because you're able to deal with it well enough to be able to talk about it, which I think is probably pretty important, don't you think? Noura Ghazi  53:03 Yeah, actually, the last at the first time I talked about it very publicly in a conference in Stockholm, it was last October, and then I thought it's important to talk about it. And I'm also thinking to do something more about PTSD, especially the PTSD related to to prisons, torture, etc, this kind of violations, because sharing experience is very important. So I'm still thinking about a kind of certain way to to like, to spread my experience with PTSD, especially that I have lot of changes in in my life recently, because I got married again, and even the the good incident that people who have PTSD, even if they have, like good incident, but it cause a kind of escalation with PTSD, Michael Hingson  54:00 yeah, but you got married again, so you have somebody you can talk with. Noura Ghazi  54:06 Yes, I got married five months ago. The most important that I could fall in love again. So I met my husband in in Paris. He's a Lebanese artist who live in Paris. And yeah, I have, I have a family now, like we have now three cats and a dog and us as couple. But it's very new for me, like this kind of marriage, that a marriage which I live with a partner, because the marriage I used to is that visit the husband in prison. I'm getting used to it. Michael Hingson  54:43 And just as always, the cat runs everything, right? Yes, of course, of course. So tell me about the freedom prize in Normandy. Noura Ghazi  54:55 Oh, it was like one of the best thing I had in my life. I. Was nominated for the freedom prize, which is launched by usually they are like young people who who nominate the the nominees for this prize, but it's launched by the government of Normandy region in France and the International Institute for Human Rights and peace. So among hundreds of files and, like many kind of round of, like short listing, there was me, a Belarusian activist who is detained, and a Palestinian photographer. So like, just knowing that I was nominated among more than 700 person was a privilege for me. The winner was the Palestinian photographer, but it was the first time they invite the other nominee to the celebration, which was on the same date of like liberating Normandy region during the Second World War. So I chose, I thought for my for couple of days about what I will wear, because I need to deliver a message. So I, I I came up with an idea about a white dress with 101 names in blue. Those names are for disappeared and detainees in Syria. So like there was, there was seven persons who worked on this dress, and I had the chance to wear it and to deliver my message and to give a speech in a very important day that even like those fighters during the Second World War who are still alive, they they came from us. They came from lot of countries. I had the privilege to see them directly, to touch them, to tell them thank you, and to deliver my message in front of an audience of 4500 persons. And it's like I love this dress, and like this event was one of the best thing I had in my life. Michael Hingson  57:21 Do you have a picture of you in the dress? Yes, I would think you do. Well, if you want, we'd love to put that in the show notes as well, especially because you're honoring all those people with the names and so on. Kind of cool. Well, okay, so, so Syria, you're, you're saying, in a lot of ways, hasn't, hasn't really changed a whole lot. It's, it's still a lot of dictatorship oriented kinds of things, and they discriminate against certain sex and and so on. And that's extremely unfortunate, because I don't think that that's the impression that people have over here, Noura Ghazi  58:02 exactly I had a chance to visit Syria, a kind of exceptional visit by the French government, because, as political refugees were not allowed to visit our country of origin. And of course, like after eight years, like out of Syria after six years without seeing my family. Of course, I was very happy, but I was very traumatized, and I I came back to Paris in in July 21 and since that time, I feel I'm not the same person before going to Syria. I'm full of frustration. I feel that, okay, I just wasted 14 years of my life for nothing. But hopefully I'm I'm trying to get better because okay, I know, like much of human rights violations mean that my kind of work and activism is more needed, yeah, Michael Hingson  59:03 so you'll so you'll continue to speak out and and fight for freedom. Noura Ghazi  59:10 Yes, I continue, and I will continue fighting for freedom, for dignity, for justice, for civil rights, and also raising awareness about PTSD and how we could invest even our pain for the sake of helping others. Michael Hingson  59:29 Well, I want to tell you that it's been an honor to have you on the podcast, and I am so glad we we got a chance to talk and to do this because having met you previously, in our introductory conversation, it was very clear that there was a story that needed to be told, and I hope that a lot of people will take an interest, and that it will will allow what you do to continue to grow, if people would like to reach out to you.

Jihadists worldwide have concluded that they will achieve Western civilization's destruction as sharia commands. Their success in gang-raping with impunity some one million British girls is proof-positive that they're right.  Pastor Jocko Booyens – an international leader in fighting such criminal sexual exploitation – warns that many American girls are being subjected to similarly rapacious behavior through so-called “beneficial relationships” cultivated by an institution dubbed “Sugar Baby University.” It should be known as “Rape U.” Texans started voting yesterday on Proposition 10 aimed at prohibiting sharia law. The fact that reducing crushing student debt is our causing our girls to be raped, impregnated and/or induced to convert to Islam and relocate to the Mideast – practices all condoned by sharia – is just one more reason why Prop 10 must pass. BanSharia.com. This is Frank Gaffney.

This episode urges listeners to take radical responsibility for their finances: focus your thinking, eliminate debt, build a do-over (emergency) fund, and consistently save and invest.

Practical advice includes improving your credit score, allocating money into savings and investments, and developing the mindset to hold and grow wealth rather than giving it away.

Bill Roggio and Husain Haqqani examine how Africa remains unprotected from jihadists and plunderers. The discussion explores the continent's vulnerability to extremist expansion and resource exploitation, with weak governance and insufficient international attention allowing terrorist networks and predatory actors to operate with increasing impunity across multiple nations.

Bill Roggio Roggio characterizes Western policy as an "absolute mess," arguing the US has conceded safe havens to jihadists in both Afghanistan and Syria. He criticizes the normalization of Ahmed al-Shara, noting that al-Shara never denounced his oath of allegiance to Al-Qaeda, yet is being treated as a potential partner. Roggio warns that while the US focuses on the Islamic State, jihadists are on a rampage across Africa and Syria, capitalizing on the strategic failures of multiple US administrations.1935 Abyssinians

SHOW 1-5-26 THE SHOW BEGINS IN DOUBTS ABOUT VENEZUELA, NIGERIA, SYRIA, RUSSIA, CHINA 1936 KENYA 1. NIGERIA AIRSTRIKE AND THE JIHADIST SHIFT Guest: Edmund Fitton-Brown Edmund Fitton-Brown analyzes a US airstrike against ISIS in Nigeria, discussing the growing jihadist threat in West Africa's "ungoverned spaces." He highlights a strategic shift where African juntas reject Western support for Russian mercenaries, who offer security without governance conditions, inadvertently boosting local support for Al-Qaeda coalitions like JNIM,,. 2. EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN ALLIANCE VS. TURKEY Guest: Edmund Fitton-Brown Fitton-Brown examines the cooperation between Greece, Cyprus, and Israel as a necessary pushback against Turkish President Erdogan's neo-Ottoman expansionism.

CHINA'S OIL LOSS IN VENEZUELA Guest: Gordon Chang and Charles Burton The guests discuss how the US removal of Maduro disrupts China's oil supply, leaving Beijing with billions in unpaid debt. They note that Chinese military equipment failed to detect the US operation, embarrassing Beijing. Burton suggests Canada faces a difficult choice between aligning with US hemispheric security or appeasing China,,. 4. 2026: A HOLLOW SUPERPOWER Guest: Gordon Chang and Charles Burton Chang and Burton speculate that the US operation in Venezuela exposes China's inability to protect its allies, making Beijing appear "hollow."

SECTARIAN WARFARE IN SYRIA Guest: Akmed Sharawari Akmed Sharawari reports on escalating violence between Syria's Alawite minority and the central government led by former jihadist Al-Shara.

WESTERN AIRSTRIKES ON ISIS Guest: Akmed Sharawari Sharawari discusses recent British and French airstrikes against ISIS weapons caches in Syria.

HEZBOLLAH'S LATIN AMERICAN FINANCING Guest: David Daoud David Daoud details Hezbollah's deep entrenchment in Venezuela, used to challenge US hegemony. He explains how the group exploits Latin American networks, illicit trade, and legitimate business fronts within expatriate communities to generate essential funding, compensating for losses in Lebanon and serving Iran's broader strategy in the Western Hemisphere,. 8. LEBANESE ARMY COLLUSION Guest: David Daoud Daoud highlights the compromised nature of the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF), citing a recent incident where an LAF soldier killed alongside Hezbollah members received a joint funeral. He argues this collusion makes the LAF an untrustworthy partner for Israel, as sectarian loyalties often supersede national duty, leading to dangerous intelligence leaks,. 9. THE FALL OF MADURO Guest: Alejandro Peña Esclusa and Ernesto Araújo Alejandro Peña Esclusa celebrates the swift US capture of Maduro as Venezuela's liberation. He argues Vice President Delcy Rodriguez must now dismantle the "Cartel of the Suns" to avoid Maduro's fate.

US DEMANDS: TERRORISTS OUT Guest: Alejandro Peña Esclusa Peña Esclusa supports US demands for Iran, Hezbollah, and the ELN to be expelled from Venezuela, asserting the population shares these desires. He characterizes Maduro as a drug lord and a threat to Western security, criticizing European leftists who condemn the operation for failing to recognize the regime's criminal nature. 11. PANIC AMONG THE LATIN LEFT Guest: Alejandro Peña Esclusa and Ernesto Araújo Ernesto Araújo explains that leftist leaders like Lula and Petro fear the US action against Maduro because their power structures share similar corruption. Peña Esclusa adds that Colombian President Petro is terrified because his campaign was funded by Venezuelan drug money, making him vulnerable to the exposure of these secrets,. 12. THE RIGHTWARD SHIFT IN ELECTIONS Guest: Alejandro Peña Esclusa and Ernesto Araújo Araújo predicts the US action in Venezuela will energize the Latin American right, specifically boosting the Bolsonaro movement in Brazil. Peña Esclusa forecasts electoral defeats for the left in Costa Rica, Peru, and Colombia, arguing the region is turning away from narco-socialism toward US-aligned conservative leadership,. 13. RUSSIA'S MAXIMALIST DEMANDS Guest: John Hardie John Hardie outlines Russia's unyielding demands for peace, including territorial concessions and barring Ukraine from NATO.

Hardie urges the Trump administration to increase pressure to force Putin to compromise,. 14. THE IMPOSSIBLE DMZ Guest: John Hardie Hardie discusses the complexities of implementing a demilitarized zone (DMZ) in Ukraine, citing disagreements over sovereignty and administration. Regarding the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, he notes Russia is unlikely to return control to Ukraine. He concludes that peace deals requiring Ukraine to cede territory are "poison pills" likely to fail,. 15. HAMAS AND THE IMPOSSIBLE RECONSTRUCTION Guest: Peter Berkowitz Peter Berkowitz argues that Hamas, as a Muslim Brotherhood offshoot, remains committed to Israel's destruction, making peace impossible. He criticizes the "Project Sunrise" reconstruction plan, noting that US-led development is futile without first disarming and deradicalizing Gaza, a task only the IDF can currently achieve given Hamas's refusal to surrender,. 16. IRAN ON THE BRINK Guest: Jonathan Sia Jonathan Sia reports on unprecedented Iranian protests and rumors that Ayatollah Khamenei plans to flee to Moscow. He attributes the regime's panic to the recent fall of allies like Maduro.

8. The Forever War: Jihadist Patience vs. American Cycles. Bill Roggio argues the US has failed to defeat jihadist ideology or funding, allowing groups like Al-Qaeda to persist in Afghanistan and Africa.

PREVIEW Guest: Bill Roggio Summary: Roggio reports on the expansion of jihadist groups across Africa, including Somalia, Mali, and Burkina Faso. He warns that European powers have effectively abandoned these regions, allowing them to descend into chaos and fall under jihadist control, while the US does only enough in Somalia to "keep the lid on." 1935 ETHIOPIA

Jonathan Schanzer analyzes the "murky" killing of US servicemen in Syria, attributing it to jihadist elements within the government's security forces. He describes the situation in Gaza as a deadlock where Hamas remains armed because no international force, other than the unacceptable option of Turkey, is willing to intervene. 1938 RAMALLAH

AHmed Sharawi reports on a "blue-on-green" attack in Syria where an infiltrated security officer killed Americans. He attributes this to the Syrian leadership's reckless integration of jihadist militias into security forces without vetting.
