385 – Is loving your enemies still relevant?One of the most challenging commandments Jesus has given us is to love our enemies. This was not a request nor a mere suggestion to follow through on only if we want to. It's not just a recommendation or advice. It's a command directly from Jesus's heart to yours and mine.But what is the point of loving someone who is mean to you, has abused you, and has done everything in their power to oppose you and what you stand for?Why on earth did Jesus want us to love our enemies?In this week's episode, that's exactly what we'll be talking about:Why Jesus wants us to love our enemiesHow to do itThe blessings that come when you doThink what would happen in the world today if all those who claim to be Christians actually obeyed Jesus's command to love your enemies. The whole world would feel the difference. The change would be immediate. Who do you need to love today?∞∞∞∞∞∞∞Previous blog post mentioned: Thoughts on Libya and Muammar QadaffiSHOW NOTES: For a full transcript and all the Bible quotes, go to thebiblespeakstoyou.com/385Text me your questions or comments.Support the showIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify__________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.

Today I have the honor and privilege to speak with poet and physician Fady Joudah about his stunning new book-- Exhibit G: Poems, Essays, and Photographs of Gaza. Along with powerful and demanding texts, Exhibit G features a collection of photographs of Gaza presented in collaboration with Hani Almadhoun and the Gaza Soup Kitchen. Together, we are confronted with a demand to witness without translating the experience into what Joudah calls “Palestine in English.” The totality of the experience is at once devastating, horrifying, but also at times beautiful and literally beyond words. Along with reading portions of the essays and poems, Fady Joudah offers his usual probing readings of Palestinian history, culture, literature, and social life. No other document so forcefully and comprehensively expresses this genocide.Fady Joudah is a Palestinian American physician, poet, and translator. He was born in Austin, Texas, and grew up in Libya and Saudi Arabia. He was educated at the University of Georgia, the Medical College of Georgia, and the University of Texas Health Sciences in Houston. In 2002 and 2005 he worked with Doctors Without Borders in Zambia and Sudan, respectively.Joudah's debut collection of poetry, The Earth in the Attic (2008), won the 2007 Yale Series of Younger Poets competition, chosen by Louise Glück. Joudah followed his second book of poetry, Alight (2013) with Textu (2014), a collection of poems written on a cell phone wherein each piece is exactly 160 characters long. His fourth collection is Footnotes in the Order of Disappearance (2018).  In 2014, Joudah was a Guggenheim Fellow in poetry. As critic Charles Bainbridge observed in a 2008 Guardian review of The Earth in the Attic, “Joudah's poetry thrives on dramatic shifts in perspective, on continually challenging received notions.”Joudah translated  several collections of Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish's work in The Butterfly's Burden (2006), which won the Banipal prize from the UK and was a finalist for the PEN Award for Poetry in Translation; and in If I Were Another, which won a PEN USA award in 2010. His translation of Ghassan Zaqtan's Like a Straw Bird It Follows Me (2012) won the Griffin International Poetry Prize in 2013. His other translations include Amjad Nasser's Petra: The Concealed Rose and A Map of Signs and Scents.Joudah lives with his family in Houston, where he works as a physician of internal medicine.   

Liza Mundy, author of The Sisterhood: The Secret History of Women at the CIA, Part One: During World War II, the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) actively recruits highly educated women like Mary Bancroft, who translates crucial intelligence in Switzerland. Bancroft handles double agent Hans Gisevius, providing intelligence that establishes Allen Dulles's career, though she receives no public credit. Decades later, in 1969, college graduate Heidi August is hired as a clerk-secretary and sent to Libya. When Muammar Gaddafi launches a sudden coup, August is the first to witness it, driving through gunfire to successfully burn out the station's classified files while senior male officers are caught flat-footed.

Find us at www.crisisinvesting.com Read Dr. Danger Zone by Kolja Spöri at https://www.amazon.com/dp/3903713023 Doug and Matt interview elite traveler Kolja Spöri about his new book, Dr. Danger Zone, a collection of 25 highlight stories from a lifetime of travel to remote and dangerous places, paired with his on-the-ground conclusions that often contradict mainstream narratives. Kolja recounts driving Russia's northern ice roads in extreme cold, visiting conflict zones and politically sensitive regions, and seeking out famous "watering hole" hotels, including Haiti's Hotel Oloffson. The conversation shifts to his views on Turkey's development under Erdoğan, increasing surveillance and political repression in Western Europe—especially Germany—and his belief that Europe is being pushed toward a wider war with Russia while migration is used as a weapon against European civilization. They also discuss his Libya trip during the Arab Spring, his connections that enabled access to places like Chechnya, the FARC, and Mindanao, a rap song made about his life, and his Formula 1 sponsorship career. 00:00 Meet Kolja Spöri 01:09 Inside Dr Danger Zone 04:33 Languages and Turkey 07:48 Europe Turning Point 10:24 War With Russia Fears 15:10 Migration and Culture Clash 21:32 Ice Road Adventure 25:17 Haiti Hotel Legends 27:41 Goma Danger Factors 30:22 Entering Libya During Spring 32:11 Armed Kids Reality 32:51 Planning Warzone Access 33:36 Libya Benghazi Insights 35:16 Borders And Breakups 36:40 Chechnya To FARC 39:00 Mindanao And Militants 41:20 Rap Tribute Breakdown 45:31 Karabakh And Azerbaijan 47:15 Formula One Backstory 49:05 Next Chapter Reflections 50:13 Book Plug And Farewell

Kelsey Norman is a Fellow for the Middle East and Director of the Women's Rights, Human Rights, and Refugees Program at Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy. Her new book, Aiding Autocrats: Migration Management, Governance and Repression in Africa, examines how wealthy countries increasingly use foreign aid to persuade other governments to stop migrants before they reach Europe or the United States—and the unintended political consequences of those policies. In this episode, Kelsey explains what she calls "migration management aid" and how it has shaped relationships with countries including Turkey, Libya, and Rwanda. We also discuss whether more recent policies, including the Trump administration's deportation agreements with countries such as Eswatini, fit into this broader pattern. The conversation then turns to one of the book's central arguments: that outsourcing migration control can undermine democracy and good governance by strengthening authoritarian governments and giving them new resources and leverage. We conclude by discussing whether there is a better way for wealthy countries to cooperate with governments on migration without reinforcing repression or sacrificing human rights.

The Times has discovered that thousands of migrants are using a new, hybrid route to try to come to the UK: legal flights and visas, combined with illegal border crossings. But most don't make it; the smuggling gangs detain them in Libya, to use them as slaves or for organ harvesting. Our reporter went to meet them.This podcast was brought to you thanks to the support of readers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

There's been a sharp drop in the number of baptisms over the last decade in Catholic and Presbyterian churches across the island. What does that say about society today and what might it mean for organised religion in the decades to come? Audrey is joined by Dr Tom Finnegan (chairperson of The Iona Institute), Dr Rebecca Stevenson (Public Affairs Officer with the Presbyterian Church in Ireland) and sociologist of religion Professor Gladys Ganiel (Queen's University Belfast).Who is willing to stand up and fight for those being dehumanised and discriminated against in this society? Have activists become jaded? Who are the courageous and brave of today? Does anyone using a hashtag now deem themselves an activist? Trade unionist Dr Kellie Turtle, theologian Dr Elaine Storkey, and civil rights historian and author Forrest Issac Jones compare the activists of today with those during the civil rights movements of the 1960s.Sally Hayden has been reporting on migration into Europa for more than a decade. She recently returned to island of Lampedusa, the most southerly point of Europe and the destination of people taking dangerous journeys from the coast of Libya. She explains how the humanitarian and political situation has changed.

On September 11, 2012, Islamist fighters attacked a United States diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya. Four Americans were killed in that attack. Just a few months later, Ronnie and Anita Smith, a young American couple, moved to Benghazi with their infant son. Their goal was to live out their faith in Christ and have opportunities to introduce Libyan people to Christ. "We wanted to live our lives out in a place that didn't know Jesus," Anita Smith says. Anita acknowledges that there was fear in moving to a dangerous place, especially soon after a deadly attack on Americans. But Anita says God gave both her and Ronnie peace about residing in Libya to further God's Kingdom. Days after Ronnie's death in December of 2013, Anita was on national TV in the United States (CNN and CBS This Morning) and on Arabic-language TV all over the Middle East, forgiving her husband's killers and expressing her love for the Libyan people. Listen as Anita recalls the day she learned her husband had been martyred and how she received comfort from the Lord through her family, church, and Christian friends—the Body of Christ in action. Ronnie Smith taught chemistry to high school students at the Benghazi International School and was admired for his knowledge and chemistry skill, but even more for his warm personality and love for his students. Anita shares how their Libyan neighbors looked out for them and welcomed them into their families, spending time together, drinking tea, and talking about life and faith. When she hears of Libyans who started following Christ after hearing the testimony of her and Ronnie, it's a powerful reminder of how Christ is using their sacrifice. Listen also as she shares how we can pray for the widows of persecuted Christian martyrs all over the world today. Anita was one of the four amazing women who shared their stories of persecution and God's faithfulness during the Hearts of Fire Virtual Event. You can sign up to receive prayer requests from persecuted Christians by email each week at www.iCommitToPray.com, including this request for Christians sentenced to prison in Libya.

What is Ocean Viking? Thanks for asking! The Ocean Viking humanitarian vessel now has well over 500 survivors on board, located in waters between Italy, Malta and Libya. It has carried out a number of rescue operations in the last week. According to NGO SOS Mediterranee, who operate Ocean Viking, survivors on board are mainly refugees and migrants. Many are minors, some of whom were attempting the treacherous crossing unaccompanied. Yet governments so far seem in no hurry to come to their aid. When was Ocean Viking first used as a rescue ship?

Kevin Rideout, a Christian missionary pilot kidnapped outside his own home in Niger, is finally free. He was released with help from Libya's military just three months after the U.S. killed ISIS's second in command. Days later, seven Christians vanished in Wenzhou, China, after police raided their church and took pastor David Tang and six colleagues into custody. In this episode, Lance walks through both stories side by side, tracing how one man came home while seven others disappeared without a trace. In this episode: * The kidnapping of Kevin Rideout outside his own home in Niger, and how Libya's military ended up brokering his release * Why Rideout is the 110th American freed from foreign captivity during Trump's second term, and what that pattern reveals * The raid on pastor David Tang's "purpose driven" church in Wenzhou, a city nicknamed "China's Jerusalem" * What Christian Solidarity Worldwide means when it calls Tang's disappearance an "enforced detention" * The law in China that bars anyone under 18 from setting foot inside a church Podcast Episode 2216: America Got 1 Missionary Back, But China Took 7 More | don't miss this!

When the pastor began to weep, Cade Jefferson, the leader of VOM's work in the Middle East and North Africa, wasn't quite sure how to respond. He had just explained to the pastor how The Voice of the Martyrs comes alongside persecuted Christians and how the ministry was ready to help should a member of his congregation be persecuted or arrested for sharing the gospel with Muslims. "We've found the people that are going to help us," the pastor exclaimed. Hear about the dream that the pastor had the night before meeting with Cade, and how Christian persecution may look different for Christians in different parts of the region, depending on whether they live on the Arabian Peninsula, in North Africa, or the Levant. Cade will also share how he and his team view their region through the lens of the persecuted church and how they see the differences for Christians in countries with historic, infant, or predominantly immigrant churches. You'll hear specific kinds of persecution our brothers and sisters experience in places like Mauritania, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Libya and more, including the danger they willingly endure to boldly engage in gospel conversations with Muslims.

This special episode features an exclusive interview with United States Senator Chris Van Hollen, a Maryland Democrat and potential 2028 presidential candidate. Congress' attempts to end the Trump administration's Iran war fiasco have thus far come up short. The same goes for the movement to end U.S. weapons and bulldozer shipments to the Israeli government, which has used American military hardware to destroy Gaza and southern Lebanon, killing tens of thousands of people in the process. In this conversation with Sen. Van Hollen, we cover the War Powers Act and Iran, unrestrained executive power, the Libya intervention of 2011, Israel and AIPAC, the genocide in Gaza, the future of U.S. hegemony, and more.

Secret documents are recovered from the wreckage of Libyan intelligence agency. Myles Bonnar is given access to copies of secret Libyan files which raise fresh questions about Megrahi and his alleged co-conspirators.

The files were found in Tripoli, in the rubble of the Libyan intelligence agency, the JSO (or ESO) destroyed by Nato bombs following the 2011 Arab Spring uprising.

In part two of the discussion, Steve relates details of his time as Fleet Robotics Officer in the Royal Navy and then provides insider insights into the challenges of making the ‘hybrid navy' a reality.Iain asks if the ‘hybrid navy' option is being pushed so hard due to the UK Government's desire not to spend more on Defence. Steve explains how it is complicated topic and not  a case of politicians and bean counters against the Royal Navy.While welcoming the development, and concurring with the inevitability of such a hybrid path, Steve stressed that there must be some serious thinking up front about how it will operate - and be sustained on operations - in an innately hostile maritime environment.He poses some key questions and suggests some answers, providing key perspectives that government, defence industry and senior naval decision-makers should take on board.It is a compelling break down of various aspects of the big autonomous systems gamble being taken by a nation and its navy.• The September 2026 edition of Warships IFR is published on 21.8.26 in the UK and also deployed globally.

Enjoyed this episode or the podcast in general? Send me a text message:One of the most capable strike aircraft the US Navy ever put on a carrier deck was also one of the least glamorous. The Grumman A-6 Intruder was subsonic, broad-nosed, and routinely called names like “Double Ugly” but it could do something rivals struggled to match: find and hit defended targets through clouds and darkness, then bring its crew home. We start with a hair-raising Vietnam War night raid over North Vietnam that shows what “all-weather” meant before GPS, digital maps, and modern displays.From there, we rewind to the Korean War, when bad weather repeatedly shut down visually aimed attacks and forced the Navy to demand a true day-night, almost-any-weather bomber for carrier aviation. We dig into the Intruder's design choices, from carrier landing innovations to its massive payload and the side-by-side cockpit that made pilot and bombardier-navigator a single team. Then we unpack DIANE, the Digital Integrated Attack Navigation Equipment system, and how radar mapping, inertial navigation, and computerized bombing created a new kind of precision for its era.We also follow the A-6 through Vietnam, its specialized variants, and its long second act in Libya, the Persian Gulf, and Desert Storm, where tactics shifted from low-level penetration to medium-altitude precision strike. Finally, we tackle the controversy: aging airframes, the almost-saved A-6F Intruder II, the failed A-12 Avenger II stealth replacement, shrinking budgets, and the Navy's move toward multirole aircraft like the F/A-18.

Rob and Ruairi answer questions sent in by listeners on Discord and Twitter, covering everything from war and geopolitics to travel, politics, the future of the podcast and the differences between the two hosts.Among the questions discussed:Have you started supporting Ukraine now?What would Israel have to do for you to consider sanctioning it under the same regime as Iran, or even taking military action?What country do you most want to visit that you haven't had the chance to visit yet?Do you have a soft spot for any small or relatively unimportant country?Have Rob and Ruairi ever actually met in person?Do Rob and Ruairi have any profound disagreements, particularly on geopolitics?Can Rob and Ruairi each give a genuine hot take on geopolitics or another subject that hasn't previously come up on the podcast?How do you reconcile the idea that the American Empire could potentially become a force for equality and development with its history of military and financial domination?Should we instead focus on international institutions such as the UN that could operate independently of the US Empire?Where have all the more heavily produced videos gone?What is actually going on with Libya?What is going on with Somalia and Somaliland?How does Rob manage to travel so much without being rich?Is there a country you would never be allowed to openly work for or receive money from?What happens when political influencers suddenly change their positions on major foreign-policy issues?How much of the Ukraine conflict is organic, and how much has been driven by the United States?How should the United States respond to Israel's actions and its relationship with Turkey?Is CENTCOM beginning to play a role in American foreign policy similar to the role played by the Japanese military before the Second World War?What does the future of the American Empire look like?Could the US Empire actually be reformed into something beneficial, or is an entirely different international system needed?What would make Rob or Ruairi change their minds about a major geopolitical issue?And, perhaps most importantly, after nearly four years and around 200 episodes: what comes next?It's a wide-ranging, occasionally serious, occasionally ridiculous conversation between two hosts who still haven't met in person — and a chance to look back at the ideas, disagreements and questions that have kept the podcast going for roughly 200 episodes.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Books⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTokHello Bottom of the description reader.

Spain's Migration Meltdown, Ireland Riots, DSA's Secret Senate Candidate, and the Fauci Diary Bombshell | The RundownThis week on The Rundown, Jillian and Fletcher break down the headlines the mainstream media won't touch. Spain's migration crisis just got worse, with 500,000 North African migrants in Libya now positioned to cross into Greece next. Ireland is erupting, with citizens in Belfast setting up roadblocks after a Sudanese migrant tried to behead an Irishman in the street. Wisconsin's DSA-backed governor candidate Francesca Hong wants Thanksgiving canceled and Trump "86'd." Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed's ties to Hasan Piker, ISNA, and CAIR raise serious questions about who's funding his campaign. Plus, Aaron Rodgers gets vindicated after Anthony Fauci's diary reveals he hid his own vaccine injury from the public, and the WNBA won't answer for coaches pushing biological men into women's sports.In this episode:

EXCLUSIVE: Martin Daubney investigates the role of migrant NGOs and charities in the illegal migration crisis across Europe. He examines claims of a continent-wide network supporting migrants and the wider debate around borders, migration and national sovereignty. Watch the full discussion on GB News. Hosted on Acast.

The Trump administration is directing the Department of War to develop a nuclear strategy that would give the president shorter-range, lower-yield and supposedly more “usable” nuclear options during a regional war with Russia or China. They call it “escalation management," but what they are actually doing is making nuclear war easier to start. Washington is developing plans for fighting a nuclear war with Russia or China while attempting to convince itself that the conflict can remain limited. It is transforming nuclear weapons from instruments of last-resort destruction into battlefield options placed before the president during a regional crisis. It is insanity, and someone must stop it. But I don't think anyone will.“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, according to NBC News, Under Secretary of War for Policy Elbridge Colby is overseeing the drafting of a classified strategy that places increased emphasis upon tactical nuclear weapons. Five people familiar with the plans say the strategy would revise the nuclear-response options presented to the president during a military crisis. The men planning this strategy want the American president to have choices beyond launching long-range strategic weapons capable of destroying cities, military installations and enemy nuclear forces. They believe smaller nuclear weapons could be used to deliver a limited strike, demonstrate American resolve and force Russia or China to stop escalating. This is the language of madmen attempting to make Armageddon sound manageable. A nuclear weapon does not become safe because government officials attach the word “tactical” to it. It does not become controllable because it has a shorter range or a smaller explosive yield. It still produces a nuclear blast, radioactive fallout, mass casualties and an immediate demand for retaliation. Once the first nuclear weapon is detonated, every carefully drafted Pentagon theory becomes meaningless. The American people are expected to believe the same war planners who failed to control Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and decades of Middle Eastern conflict, including the one raging right now, will somehow control a nuclear exchange between superpowers. They will not. In March, Department of War officials publicly acknowledged that Colby's policy office and U.S. Strategic Command were conducting a nuclear-strategy review examining American force requirements and possible additional theater nuclear weapons. Instead of conducting a traditional Nuclear Posture Review subjected to the customary interagency process and congressional scrutiny, the administration moved the work into an internal strategy review. The architecture of nuclear confrontation is being deliberately expanded. The Trump administration is not putting out the flames of global conflict. Through the Department of War, it is fanning them while assembling the machinery for a catastrophe that will consume everything in its path. The Bible tells us that the day will come when peace would be taken from the earth, and the nations are getting ready. That day is almost here.

Beth unpacks Netflix's Bombing of Pan Am 103 and lands somewhere nobody expected: what it actually felt like to die in a plane that breaks apart at 31,000 feet, and what happens on the other side. She traces the Lockerbie bombing from the small Scottish town that ran the investigation to the FBI-CIA intel failure that would replay thirteen years later on 9-11, then walks it all the way into heaven.

The withdrawal of the last US troops from Erbil marks the end of an era in which the Kurds were the United States' closest ally in Iraq, says Victoria Taylor, former deputy assistant secretary of state for Iraq and Iran affairs.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Merneptah vs the Libyans. In 1221 BCE, Egypt faced a crisis. Tribal coalitions from the west, and some "Peoples of the Sea" were marching on the Nile Valley. They came in their thousands, armed and ready to settle. Caught by surprise, King Merneptah and his warriors hastened to the defence...

What Happens When the Story You're Reporting Is the Story You're Not Allowed to Tell?  Gabriel Harrison was 30, working as a journalist in Tunisia, and had been handed the story that would end his career. It described a specific mechanism operating across North Africa in the years after Gaddafi's fall, one whose implications did not align with the version of that region most Western audiences had been given. His editor said the story was "not relevant to Libya."  He understood immediately what that meant. Three months later he quit.  Two years of a dark night of the soul followed. Then he moved to South America to join what he was told was an autonomous community, which turned out to be a sophisticated scam whose leaders are now being searched for by Interpol. Gabriel is known online as Orpheus. He crossed 65,000 Instagram followers in four weeks by saying, publicly, the things he had spent years being told he could not. He is the founder of Aquari, a bioresonance jewelry brand backed by peer-reviewed cell research.  He is a student of Rupert Sheldrake's work on morphic resonance and formative causation. He thinks seriously about what he calls the fork between transhumanism and ultrahumanism, and whether the next chapter of human civilization merges us with machine systems or takes us in the opposite direction entirely.Topics include:  What two years after Gaddafi actually looked like from the ground The story his editor would not let him publish Belonging to yourself at 33 The autonomous community in Paraguay and the four-year legal battle it produced Transhumanism vs ultrahumanism Morphic resonance and the hundredth monkey Why attention is currency, and most people are spending it without knowing.CONNECT WITH GABRIEL HARRISON  Instagram: @disco_orpheus  Bioresonance jewelry: aquari.storeWORK WITH DOV Website: https://dovbaron.com Email: dov@dovbaron.com    Please rate, review, and subscribe wherever you listen.

A two-page Middle East policy briefing bearing former Treasury secretary Larry Summers's name was found among the Jeffrey Epstein documents released through the House Oversight Committee. Dated to early 2013, the briefing summarized political and security developments across ten countries during the upheaval of the Arab Spring, including Egypt, Syria, Israel, Iran, Libya, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia. Its contents ranged from political assassinations and civil unrest to Iranian nuclear negotiations, Israeli military activity and regional diplomatic maneuvering. The sophistication and breadth of the analysis suggested it was prepared for a senior policymaker or someone with access to high-level foreign-policy reporting.The document adds another dimension to the long-running relationship between Summers and Epstein, showing that material connected to Summers and involving sensitive international affairs ended up in Epstein's possession. However, the document alone does not establish whether Summers personally wrote it for Epstein, forwarded it to him or whether Epstein obtained it through someone else. Combined with later emails showing Summers seeking personal advice from Epstein and testimony that Summers introduced Bill Clinton to him, the briefing illustrates the extraordinary level of intellectual, political and institutional access Epstein cultivated. What Epstein intended to do with the information remains unknown, but its presence in his files raises further questions about why powerful officials continued providing him with privileged access long after his criminal conduct had become public.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Larry Summers' 2013 Middle East Briefing in the Epstein Files

Greg Kelly criticizes Republican Senators Tom Tillis and John Cornyn for failing to support Donald Trump's political nominees and questions the integrity of Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett. He expresses deep skepticism regarding the United States' military intervention in Libya, arguing that the objectives were unclear compared to modern conflicts with Iran. Greg also addresses the "fallen" state of the world by mocking MSNBC personalities and highlighting the legal troubles of public figures like Tony Romo.

www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcastSeptember 11th, 2012 in the city of Benghazi four Americans lost their lives. In a city most listeners couldn't point to on a map, when armed militants overran a lightly guarded U.S. compound in Benghazi. By the next morning, four Americans had lost their lives — among them Christopher Stevens, a diplomat so committed to the region he'd once arrived in the country by cargo ship rather than wait for a safer route in.The fallout stretched on for years: nine separate government investigations, a marathon congressional hearing that ran past eleven hours, and — almost by accident — the exposure of a private email server that some argue tipped the outcome of a presidential race with no real connection to Libya.This week, Eric, Sean, and Jorge open their countdown to the 25th anniversary of 9/11 by walking through it all — the overnight siege, the frantic hunt for an ambassador who vanished inside a burning building, and a devastatingly accurate mortar barrage at dawn that claimed two more American lives. From there, the guys tackle the parts of this story that still don't add up: a debunked video-blamed-it narrative pushed on national television, a disputed order to hold back rescuers that some contractors insist was real, and a theory tying a secret CIA outpost to weapons quietly moving toward Syria. They also connect the dots on how digging into Benghazi wound up cracking open one of the most consequential email scandals in American political history.

In this episode of If Not For God with Mike Zwick, Mike continues his conversation with Daniel Merrill of Cross X Change, exploring the origins and teachings of Islam from a Christian apologetics perspective. The discussion examines topics including the meaning of Islam, Muhammad's life, the Quran, jihad, taqiyya, the historical concepts of Dar al-Islam and Dar al-Harb, and how these ideas compare with biblical Christianity. Mike and Daniel also discuss persecution of Christians in predominantly Muslim countries, the martyrdom of the 21 Coptic Christians in Libya, and stories of Muslims coming to faith in Jesus Christ through dreams, visions, and the witness of faithful believers. Throughout the conversation, they contrast the Christian call to proclaim the gospel through love and persuasion with their understanding of Islamic doctrine, while encouraging Christians to be prepared to share the hope found in Jesus Christ.

In this special edition of From Our Own Correspondent, we remember BBC Correspondent David Willey, who reported from around the world for more than half a century, and who died recently.David was a prolific contributor to this programme throughout his life and was still writing for the programme into his 93rd year. In an interview recorded last year for the ‘From Our Own Correspondent at 70' programme, David tells Today presenter Anna Foster about his early travels reporting from around the world from Libya to China, as well as his long-time role as BBC Vatican Correspondent. This podcast also features some of his most memorable dispatches, including a report on troop morale in Vietnam in the 1970s, a lavish party thrown by Colonel Gadaffi in Libya in 2009 to mark his 40th year in power; insights from inside the Vatican amid the ‘Vatileaks' scandal of 2012; and recollections from 2023 about when he first met Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi at his estate near Milan, where he got a private tour of the billionaire businessman's private mausoleum.

Episode Summary      On January 18, 2018, in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, Green Beret combat medic Luke Sciulli stopped being the medic and became the patient. A booby-trapped building collapsed on him during a personnel-recovery operation, fracturing his C4, C5, and C6 vertebrae, both scapulas, and his pelvis, and leaving him with a spinal cord injury at C5. In this episode of WarDocs, SFC(R) Luke Sciulli walks through that day and the MEDEVAC chain that followed — forward surgical team, Kandahar, Landstuhl, and Walter Reed — and explains how living through the system he once operated permanently reshaped his view of casualty care, pain management, and patient advocacy.   SFC(R) Sciulli is candid about the recovery that nearly broke him. He describes the culture shock of moving from elite combat operations to a 30-bed spinal cord injury ward populated largely by elderly veterans, and the slow, deliberate realization that, in his words, the only person who was going to make his life better was him. He maps the framework that pulled him back — physical health, mental health, and career — and offers a direct message to wounded operators who cannot get out of bed: the discipline that earned the Beret, the Tab, or the Trident is still inside them.   The conversation then widens into the operational and strategic challenges Sciulli has tackled across an extraordinary career. He compares civilian and military trauma systems and argues that surgeons in major American cities now see more penetrating trauma than many military providers — making military-civilian partnerships essential to keeping skills sharp. He recounts building a joint, combined MEDEVAC architecture across five African nations, and embedding at forward surgical teams in Ukraine just kilometers from the front, where 60 to 90 casualties a day exposed gaps in Role 1 and Role 2 doctrine, risk tolerance, and interoperability that U.S. tabletop exercises rarely surface.   SFC(R) Sciulli also draws on his time supervising a 216-bed field hospital at Columbia University during the 2020 COVID surge and his current work with Vigilant Consulting and Valinor Enterprises advising on tactical medical technology. He makes the case for predictive analytics, wearables, and automated resuscitation systems to force-multiply providers in large-scale combat operations — while confronting the risk-acceptance and accountability questions that slow adoption. He closes with the cause he intends to define his legacy: fixing the negligent disconnect that leaves SOF medics and operators underutilized in the civilian, defense, and healthcare worlds, and expanding the transition programs that turn their hard-won skills into lives saved at home. Chapters (00:00-01:10) Cold Open and Introduction (01:10-05:30) Becoming the Casualty in Helmand Province (05:30-11:30) The Recovery That Rewired Everything (11:30-15:45) Civilian and Military Medicine, Two Ways (15:45-22:45) Distance, Mass Casualties, and Lessons from Ukraine (22:45-32:30) Field Hospitals, Tactical Technology, and Risk (32:30-36:15) Recruiting the Next Force and a SOF Medic Legacy Chapter Summaries (00:00-01:10) Introduction Dr. Soderdahl frames the journey ahead: a Green Beret combat medic who became the patient on the wrong side of an IED blast and now drives technology and policy for the next war. The standard WarDocs welcome sets up a firsthand look at military medicine from the austere edge of combat to the front lines of innovation. (01:10-05:30) Becoming the Casualty in Helmand Province SFC(R) Sciulli recounts volunteering to backfill a buddy's ODA as senior medic and the January 18, 2018 operation in which a booby-trapped building collapsed onto him. He details catastrophic injuries — broken C4-C6, a C5 spinal cord injury, fractured scapulas and pelvis — and the MEDEVAC through the forward surgical team toward higher care, including how his teammates stabilized and moved him. (05:30-11:30) The Recovery That Rewired Everything He describes six months split between Walter Reed and the Tampa VA, the jolt of moving from combat to a spinal cord injury ward, and the loss of career, health, and identity overnight. The turning point came when he accepted that no one else could make his life better, and built a deliberate framework around physical health, mental health, and career. (11:30-15:45) Civilian and Military Medicine, Two Ways Drawing on his paramedic, firefighter, and critical-care flight background plus SF service, Sciulli argues civilian surgeons now out-rep many military providers on penetrating trauma, making military-civilian partnerships essential. He also reflects on serving as senior medical provider for SEAL Teams Two and Eight and why interoperability comes down to people and personality. (15:45-22:45) Distance, Mass Casualties, and Lessons from Ukraine He explains building a joint, combined MEDEVAC system across Chad, Niger, Nigeria, Cameroon, and Libya, then scales the problem to the Indo-Pacific and Eastern Europe. Embedded at forward surgical teams in Ukraine, he saw 60 to 90 casualties a day and learned hard lessons about volume, interoperability, civilian EMS integration, and U.S. risk tolerance. (22:45-32:30) Field Hospitals, Tactical Technology, and Risk SFC(R) Sciulli describes supervising a 216-bed COVID field hospital at Columbia University and why a military-style community made it work. He then identifies penetrating and shrapnel trauma as a top killer and makes the case for wearables, predictive analytics, and automated resuscitation — confronting the risk acceptance and human trust that slow adoption. (32:30-36:15) Recruiting the Next Force and a SOF Medic Legacy Speaking to students, residents, and recruiters, Sciulli reframes the pitch: the military needs people willing to operate beyond their comfort zone and scope, not just another credential. He closes on the legacy he intends to leave — fixing the negligent disconnect that leaves SOF medics and operators underutilized after service. Take Home Messages Experiencing Care Builds the Best Advocates: Living through the casualty evacuation chain as the patient teaches lessons no provider can learn from the other side of the litter. Empathy, pain management, and patient advocacy take on new meaning once a clinician has been the one strapped to the litter. Recovery Is a Decision You Make Daily: The hardest part of catastrophic injury is mental, not physical. Progress comes from a conscious choice to get up and be better than yesterday, supported by resources but driven by personal ownership of physical health, mental health, and career. Keep Military Providers Sharp in Civilian Trauma: Civilian surgeons in major cities now see more penetrating trauma and polytrauma than many military clinicians. An integrated military-civilian system that rotates providers through high-volume civilian centers is essential to keeping wartime skills ready. Plan for Volume, Distance, and Interoperability: Future large-scale combat means moving casualties across oceans and continents while relying on host-nation, partner, and civilian systems. High casualty volumes and contested distance demand generalist skill, civilian EMS integration, and a higher tolerance for operational risk. Close the Gap Between Research and the Warfighter: Government funds enormous amounts of combat casualty research and technology that never reaches frontline providers fast enough. The mission is to translate proven findings and devices into the warfighter's hands tomorrow — not years from now.   Episode Keywords military medicine, combat medicine, Green Beret medic, 18D combat medic, special forces medic, combat casualty care, TCCC, spinal cord injury recovery, polytrauma, Helmand Province, Walter Reed, MEDEVAC, forward surgical team, Ukraine combat medicine, mass casualty, large scale combat operations, LSCO, prolonged field care, tactical medicine, medical device innovation, SOF medic, military civilian partnership, WarDocs, Luke Sciulli, veteran resilience, penetrating trauma   Hashtags #MilitaryMedicine, #CombatMedicine, #GreenBeret, #WarDocs, #CombatCasualtyCare, #SOFMedic, #VeteranResilience, #TacticalMedicine   Honoring the Legacy and Preserving the History of Military Medicine The WarDocs Mission- WarDocs exists to honor the legacy of Military Medicine, preserve its history, and inspire every generation — across all Services, Corps, and Ranks — to serve with excellence and pride.

When the pastor began to weep, Cade Jefferson, the leader of VOM's work in the Middle East and North Africa, wasn't quite sure how to respond. He had just explained to the pastor how The Voice of the Martyrs comes alongside persecuted Christians and how the ministry was ready to help should a member of his congregation be persecuted or arrested for sharing the gospel with Muslims. "We've found the people that are going to help us," the pastor exclaimed. Listen to VOM Radio this week to hear about the dream that pastor had the night before meeting with Cade, and how Christian persecution may look different for Christians in different parts of the region, depending on whether they live on the Arabian Peninsula, in North Africa, or the Levant. Cade will also share how he and his team view their region through the lens of the persecuted church and how they see the differences for Christians in countries with historic, infant, or predominantly immigrant churches. You'll hear specific kinds of persecution our brothers and sisters experience in places like Mauritania, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Libya and more, including the danger they willingly endure to boldly engage in gospel conversations with Muslims. Pray for unity among Christians in nations with very young churches; for stamina for immigrant churches as they reach out; and for boldness among Christians in countries with a historic church presence. Also, please lift up brothers and sisters currently imprisoned for their faith in Libya. The VOM App for your smartphone or tablet will help you pray daily for persecuted Christians in nations like North Korea, Nigeria, China, and Iran, as well as provide free access to e-books, audiobooks, video content, and feature films.

Bangladesh is experiencing a severe measles outbreak, with around 700 people dying of confirmed and suspected cases since March - most of them children. BBC South Asia Correspondent Azadeh Moshiri reports from a hospital, north of the capital Dhaka. France celebrated Bastille Day this week, which marks the beginning of the French revolution. This was the last parade under President Emmanuel Macron, who steps down from office next year – but he made sure to make his mark, showcasing French military power and celebrating unity with its allies. James Waterhouse reports from Paris.In Albania, the pink flamingo has become an unlikely symbol of protest, reflecting environmental concerns over a proposed tourism development that triggered recent protests. But as Guy De Launey discovered, unhappiness among voters runs much deeper. Ecuador is one of the best places to watch birds anywhere in the world, boasting some 1600 species – twice as many as the whole of Europe. Unsurprisingly, birding tourism is thriving. Stephen Moss has been ticking off some rare spots.And veteran BBC correspondent, David Willey, died last weekend at the age of 93. Across a career spanning decades, he reported from around the world - covering communist China, the Vietnam war, and Libya during in Gaddafi era.
