The Democrat governor of California, Gavin Newsom, has criticised deadly US strikes on alleged drug-trafficking vessels in the Caribbean. The US has now struck at least nineteen vessels, killing around eighty people. On Tuesday, an American warship (the USS Gerald R Ford) also arrived in the region. There's growing speculation that the US might attack Venezuela, where President Maduro has announced a nationwide military deployment.Also in the programme: The Israeli military says its troops were attacked when they detained four Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank for taking part in a large scale arson attack on Palestinian villages; out of the latest atrocities in Sudan, we will bring you the survivors' stories; and bagpipe world record broken in Australia.(Photo: Dozens of aircraft on the USS Gerald R Ford add significant combat power to US forces near Latin America.

Donald Trump admitted he wants to “take over” Venezuela and its oil. Marco Rubio is overseeing the war plans, aiming to overthrow President Nicolás Maduro and install US puppet María Corina Machado, who vowed to privatize Venezuela's natural resources and sell off $1.7 trillion of her country's assets to North American corporations. Ben Norton explains.

Today, Morgan, Jamil, Les, and Jess discuss the Trump administration's deployment of the USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group to the Caribbean as part of its intensified campaign against Latin American drug cartels. The move dramatically expands U.S. presence in the U.S. Southern Command's area of operations—with destroyers, F-35 fighters, and Reaper drones joining the effort—and has drawn a fierce response from Venezuela's Maduro regime, which launched its own military exercises in protest.What's Washington's real objective here, countering narcotics networks or signaling to Caracas? And if most fentanyl traffics through land routes via Mexico, not by sea, is this deployment really about fighting the drug trade, or about projecting power closer to Venezuela's shores? As regional partners like Colombia and the UK distance themselves from the mission, is this bold strategy a show of deterrence—or a costly display of overkill?Check out this source that helped shape our fellows' discussion: @morganlroach@lestermunson@nottvjessjones@jamil_n_jafferLike what we're doing here?

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! We’re joined by Bill Roggio from the Long War Journal to talk about the growing violence and instability across Africa and how the U.S. should respond to global conflicts. Roggio explains the complex situation in Nigeria, where Islamic State-linked groups like Boko Haram are targeting Christians amid deep-rooted communal and land disputes. He warns against U.S. military intervention, saying “every problem in the world isn’t our problem.” Brett and Bill also discuss U.S. naval movements near Venezuela, with Roggio suggesting the deployment of the USS Gerald R. Ford may be a pressure campaign against the Maduro regime. The conversation expands to Syria, where Roggio criticizes Washington for legitimizing former al-Qaeda affiliates, and finally touches on renewed tensions between India and Pakistan, which he describes as a recurring but contained rivalry between nuclear powers.

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the political turmoil in Washington, D.C. and how the recent government shutdown represents what he calls “what winning feels like.” He argues that discomfort during this process is necessary and that Americans should not want things to “go back to the way they were.” Brett suggests that Democrats have overplayed their hand, leading to potential political fallout for leaders like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.

Die USA haben eine enorme Streitkraft vor der venezolanischen Küste zusammengezogen: Zerstörer, Bomber, Kampfjets. Eine Invasion wäre hochriskant. Könnte sich Trump dennoch von Venezuelas Ölvorkommen locken lassen? Seit mehreren Monaten greifen die USA angebliche Drogenschmugglerboote vor der Küste Venezuelas an. Nach Angaben der US-Regierung starben dabei mehr als 70 Menschen. Kritiker sprechen von Hinrichtungen ohne rechtsstaatliches Verfahren. Die Vermutung liegt nahe, dass es den USA nicht primär um den Kampf gegen das organisierte Verbrechen geht, sondern vielmehr darum, Druck auf Venezuelas Machthaber Nicolás Maduro auszuüben. In dieser Ausgabe von »Trumps Amerika« spricht Host Juan Moreno mit Jens Glüsing, dem Lateinamerika-Korrespondenten des SPIEGEL, über die aktuelle Lage in Venezuela. Werden die USA angreifen? Wollen die Venezolaner von der Maduro-Diktatur befreit werden? Und wenn es stimmt, dass Trump derzeit noch vorsichtig ist – wer ist die wahre treibende Kraft hinter der aktuellen Kriegsrhetorik aus Washington?

La semana pasada el portaaviones Gerald Ford llegó al Caribe, lo que convierte al despliegue aeronaval frente a Venezuela en el mayor que ha organizado la armada de Estados Unidos en varias décadas. Lo están complementando con vuelos de bombarderos B-52 y B-1 que han realizado simulacros de bombardeo a menos de 20 millas de la costa venezolana. A finales de octubre los medios informaron que Trump ha revisado personalmente una lista de objetivos, lo que podría significar que planean un ataque inminente. Hasta ahora se han limitado a hundir lanchas sospechosas de transportar drogas, lo que sin duda ha afectado al régimen chavista ya que una parte de sus ingresos proviene del narcotráfico. Pero un despliegue semejante para tan poca cosa parece desproporcionado. Trump ha prometido escalar la campaña con la intención expresa de derrocar a Nicolás Maduro y poner fin a su régimen. Una invasión terrestre es improbable por dos razones de peso: el despliegue no está configurado para ello y va contra los principios de política exterior de Trump, que desde 2017 rechaza cambios de régimen al estilo Irak. En una entrevista hace unos días negó que tuviese la intención de invadir Venezuela pero, a renglón seguido, aseguró que los días de Maduro están contados. Su objetivo es acabar con el chavismo, pero sin intervención directa, seguramente apostando por un colapso interno animado desde fuera. EEUU podría contribuir a ese colapso con inteligencia, operaciones encubiertas y posibles ataques quirúrgicos desde la distancia. Esto podría provocar movilizaciones opositoras, presión callejera y una rebelión militar. Es lo último que falta por probar en Venezuela. Todas las medidas anteriores (sanciones, aislamiento diplomático y apoyo internacional a la oposición) han dañado la imagen del chavismo, pero no han conseguido ni acabar con él, ni ablandarlo. El chavismo se vale continuamente de negociaciones dilatorias. Ofrece diálogo a cambio de una tregua y entretanto gana tiempo y arranca concesiones que luego retiene. Dentro de Venezuela Trump tendrá muchos apoyos. Tras el fraude electoral del año pasado la oposición, exhausta y frustrada, ve en él una esperanza. El chavismo no es una dictadura convencional, sino una banda criminal que controla un Estado petrolero y obtiene cuantiosos ingresos del narcotráfico y la minería ilegal. Hasta ahora se ha intentado forzar a Gobierno de Maduro a equivocarse o facilitar una transición dialogada. Nada ha funcionado. Solo queda apostar activamente por una implosión del régimen sin invasión directa, pero interviniendo mediante operaciones encubiertas y ataques a objetivos muy localizados que podrían activar el instinto de autopreservación de las fuerzas armadas. Desconocemos si en eso consiste el plan, pero ningún Gobierno estadounidense ha presionado tanto desde que se instauró el chavismo, lo que abre posibilidades inéditas hasta ahora. El éxito depende de que los planes sean realistas, tengan apoyo en casa y se ejecuten correctamente. Pero no hay nada garantizado, ni siquiera la intervención misma.

Donald Trump ha hecho de la “guerra contra el narcotráfico” un eje de su política exterior para exhibir mano dura y presionar a gobiernos incómodos. Desde este verano, más de 60 personas han muerto en operaciones contra narcolanchas en el Caribe, y el Pacífico oriental, frente a Venezuela, con la mira en forzar la caída de Nicolás Maduro. Washington ya habla de una “fase dos”: un posible desembarco terrestre. ¿Es viable?

Alexandre Garcia comenta sobre o apoio de Lula a Maduro, a investigação contra a JBS e o protesto de um acusado pelo 8/1 no Gilmarpalooza. 

Die US-Regierung gibt vor, gegen Drogenkartelle vorzugehen. Dabei hat die tödliche Show eigentlich einen politischen Hintergrund.

Former Green Beret Jordan Goudreau details how he went from soldier to strategist in a high-stakes plan to remove Nicolás Maduro. He claims he was recruited under Trump's circle, received U.S. authorization through Keith Schiller and Drew Horn, and signed a $212M contract with Juan Guaidó's opposition. Goudreau insists it was a political operation, not a mercenary mission.

Mary Anastasia O'Grady discusses the strong US military presence near Venezuela, intended to pressure dictator Nicolás Maduro to leave. While the opposition (led by elected President González) is ready to govern, the Trump administration hesitates due to security concerns. The major risk is chaos: following Maduro's exit, drug cartels (like Cartel de los Soles) and other groups (like ELN and Tren de Aragua) might fight dissident generals, leading to instability rather than a smooth transition to democracy.

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 11-6-25 THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT VENEZUELA. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Anatol Lieven discusses the institutionalization of the Ukraine war, highlighted by children being trained to fly drones in classrooms. This blend of new technology and old societal militarization creates a "bloodless war" perception, potentially making conflict psychologically easier. He also addresses the argument that "stagnating states" are militarizing to maintain power, fueling conflicts and reasserting spheres of influence (a "new economic Monroe Doctrine"). The US is critically involved, enabling Ukrainian targeting capabilities. 915-930 Anatol Lieven discusses the institutionalization of the Ukraine war, highlighted by children being trained to fly drones in classrooms.

The US is critically involved, enabling Ukrainian targeting capabilities. 930-945 Chris Riegel discusses how artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are transforming labor, citing modest IBM layoffs but predicting heavy impacts in large retail. Advanced robotics in Chinese auto manufacturing drives cost efficiency, and AI combined with robotics enhances manufacturing capability. While seeing demand, Riegel notes characteristics of a bubble, especially in wildly overvalued stock prices, fueled by vast investment in AI data centers. In QSRs and retail, AI adoption is driven by efficiency and, in places like California, high minimum wages. 945-1000 Mary Anastasia O'Grady discusses the strong US military presence near Venezuela, intended to pressure dictator Nicolás Maduro to leave. While the opposition (led by elected President González) is ready to govern, the Trump administration hesitates due to security concerns. The major risk is chaos: following Maduro's exit, drug cartels (like Cartel de los Soles) and other groups (like ELN and Tren de Aragua) might fight dissident generals, leading to instability rather than a smooth transition to democracy. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Joel Finkelstein discusses how the New York election of socialist Zohran Mamdani was influenced by "subnationalism," where foreign nations subvert democracy. Organizations associated with Islamist Maoist ideals and CCP assets (like Neville Roy Singham, who bankrolled a campaign hub) were central to mobilizing votes. On social media, especially Instagram and TikTok, content favorable to Mamdani was given "engineered virality," with over 50% of viral engagement coming from non-American users, suggesting organized foreign intercession. 1015-1030 Ahmad Fouad Alkhatib discusses the high probability of renewed conflict in Gaza, arguing that the ceasefire is fragile due to Hamas's malign intentions. He estimates Hamas's combat-effective forces are significantly lower than reported (3,000 to 5,000, versus 15,000 to 30,000), noting Hamas pays fighters $20 to $25 a day. He also challenges polls showing widespread Gazan support for Hamas, arguing such results are manipulated and defy logic given the catastrophe following October 7. Disarmament is crucial for any future political process. 1030-1045 Ahmad Fouad Alkhatib argues that disarmament must precede any credible political process in Gaza, citing Hamas's use of medical facilities like Shifa and Nasser hospitals for interrogations and military activities. He criticizes Turkey and Qatar for using Hamas as a bargaining chip for regional leverage, suggesting they now posture Hamas as a potential security guarantor against ISIS. Alkhatib also suggests using Private Military Contractors (PMCs) as an enforcement force to actively fight Hamas and secure territory, given diminishing faith in an International Stabilization Force. 1045-1100 Gregg Roman details Turkey and Qatar's strategy to establish regional hegemony across "five fronts" by replacing the Shia Crescent. Turkey, providing military manpower, and Qatar, providing the budget, are active in Gaza, southern Lebanon, Syria, and Djibouti. Their plan includes securing maritime supremacy in the Eastern Mediterranean via an agreement with Libya and extending air power over Syrian airspace. Erdoğan seeks plausible deniability by empowering Syrian jihadis to attack the Golan Heights and is building bases in Djibouti and Somalia. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Professor Evan Ellis discusses Argentina's economic stabilization under President Milei, who resisted dollarization by bringing the peso to a stable, free-market rate through aggressive spending cuts and US/IMF support. This success under the new US "economic Monroe Doctrine" sends a strong signal to the Americas, aimed at countering China's rapid expansion. Ellis also reviews US military readiness near Venezuela and political shifts toward the center-right in Bolivia and potentially Chile, though these nations remain economically engaged with China. 1115-1130 Professor Evan Ellis discusses Argentina's economic stabilization under President Milei, who resisted dollarization by bringing the peso to a stable, free-market rate through aggressive spending cuts and US/IMF support.

Ellis also reviews US military readiness near Venezuela and political shifts toward the center-right in Bolivia and potentially Chile, though these nations remain economically engaged with China. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Veronique de Rugy critiques the administration's legal argument at the Supreme Court that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) authorizes the President to impose tariffs. She argues the term "emergency" is used too loosely, defining 50 years of trade deficits as an emergency, potentially granting the President immense, unchecked power to tax. Tariffs are taxes, which Congress should control. De Rugy notes tariffs are already causing damage by raising prices for consumers or forcing companies to cut profits and investment. 1215-1230 Alan Tonelson discusses the Supreme Court oral arguments concerning the President's authority to impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). The administration argues the President can invoke IEEPA due to emergencies like fentanyl and trade deficits. Tonelson finds arguments against including tariffs under IEEPA's regulatory language "jaw-dropping." He stresses that the President must have sole control over declaring foreign policy emergencies, necessary for rapid response. If rejected, the President has other longstanding tariffing powers. 1230-1245 Dr. AJ Kolhari discusses Russia's successful test of the nuclear-powered Burevestnik cruise missile, which flew 14,000 km for 15 hours. The missile captures and compresses air, heating it over a nuclear reactor to create thrust. Kolhari emphasizes the danger because it flies low (50 to 100 m) and is hard to detect. He notes this nuclear propulsion technology, or similar ramjet designs, could revolutionize commercial travel and be applied to flight on Mars, using its CO₂ atmosphere for heating. 1245-100 AM Conrad Black discusses Canadian politics and trade, noting a misunderstanding between Prime Minister Carney and Ontario Premier Doug Ford regarding an anti-tariff ad that offended President Trump. Black reports that China's General Secretary Xi has been conciliatory toward both Canada and the US. Crucially, Canada needs pipelines built both east, west (Trans Mountain to Vancouver/Pacific), and south (Keystone XL) to move Alberta's oil. Carney's federal government tentatively agreed to approve a second pipeline to Northern British Columbia.

Holt suggests the highly visible fleet and air power might be a distraction for the regime, which expects a predictable Bay of Pigs-type assault force. President Trump is likely avoiding a "wash, rinse, repeat plan," indicating the "pointy edge of the spear" they are watching is probably not the thing that will get them.

En nuestro diálogo gramatical ilustraremos ejemplos de Special Verbs – Hacer, mientras recordamos un himno latinoamericano, Gracias a la vida. Cerraremos la emisión explorando el uso de la frase Estar en las últimas. En este segmento hablaremos del cerro Rico de Potosí, una montaña de Bolivia que está a punto de colapsar. - Estados Unidos continúa presionando a Maduro con su despliegue militar - El huracán Melissa deja estragos en Jamaica y el Caribe - Las mujeres se benefician más que los hombres del ejercicio aeróbico - Musk lanza su propia versión de Wikipedia - Gracias a la vida, un himno de la música latinoamericana - La montaña boliviana que podría desaparecer

Son muchos los que están convencidos de que el Gobierno estadounidense ya ha decidido atacar Venezuela. Desconocemos si es cierto, pero si sabemos que en estos momentos hay un despliegue naval en el Caribe que no tiene precedentes desde la crisis de los misiles de 1962. La armada estadounidense ha posicionado 10 buques de guerra, 10.000 efectivos y el portaaviones Gerald Ford, el más grande y moderno del mundo. Según el presidente de EEUU semejante dispositivo se justifica por el papel de Venezuela como centro neurálgico del llamado "Cártel de los Soles", un cártel dedicado al narcotráfico que controla directamente el ejército venezolano. Pero, aparte de la caribeña, hay otras rutas por las que las drogas se abren paso hasta el mercado norteamericano y es sólo en el Caribe donde se ha realizado un despliegue de estas características. Es obvio, por lo tanto, que la Casa Blanca quiere algo más de naturaleza política como derrocar a Nicolás Maduro. Eso posibilitaría interrumpir el suministro de petróleo venezolano a Cuba y con ello debilitar al régimen castrista. La operación recuerda a una propuesta del ex asesor de seguridad nacional John Bolton allá por 2019 que no se llevó a la práctica. Ahora Marco Rubio, secretario de Estado, la ha recuperado y parece que quiere ir hasta el final. Rubio es de origen cubano y tiene una motivación personal para acabar con el régimen castrista, algo que ha perseguido desde sus inicios en política. A diferencia de lo que sucedió hace seis años, Rubio ha conseguido llegar mucho más lejos. El despliegue naval es sólo una parte de la operación en la que participa también la CIA y un regimiento de operaciones especiales, el 160, bien conocido por haber liquidado a Osama bin Laden. El objetivo es, por lo tanto, doble: acabar con Maduro y asfixiar a Díaz-Canel cortando el suministro de crudo venezolano. Desde 1999 Venezuela y Cuba intercambian petróleo por servicios médicos cubanos, pero la cooperación ha disminuido desde 2016 debido a la caída de la producción petrolera venezolana y los problemas económicos que atraviesa el país. Actualmente Cuba recibe unos 32.000 barriles diarios, sólo una tercera parte de lo que recibía en los años dorados de Hugo Chávez. Esto ha reducido la dependencia cubana, que ahora importa petróleo a precio preferente de México y Rusia. De este modo, incluso sin petroleo venezolano, la economía cubana podría resistir. El régimen es experto en administrar la miseria y, aunque las cosas están peor que nunca, el castrismo sigue reteniendo el poder sin apenas oposición en el interior. De hecho la pobreza refuerza el discurso oficial de un bloqueo inclemente por parte de Estados Unidos. Trump, asesorado por Rubio, seguramente evite una intervención directa ya que implicaría el riesgo de que esa intervención derive en una guerra asimétrica al estilo de las de Oriente Medio. En su lugar podrían optar por un golpe interno, operaciones encubiertas o presión militar para forzar la salida de Maduro. Hasta la fecha nada de eso ha funcionado ni en Cuba, ni en Venezuela, dos países en manos de sendas bandas criminales que resistirán lo que haga falta para no perder el negocio.

PREVIEW. International Pressure Campaign as Alternative to Military Action in Venezuela. Mary Kissel discusses options beyond kinetic military force for dealing with Maduro in Venezuela. She favors an international pressure campaign, like maximum pressure to cut off funds and banking, as politically less risky. Weakening the Venezuelan regime also demonstrates to nations like China, Russia, and Iran that the US opposes their presence in its backyard. 1950 TRINIDAD & TOBAGAO

US Military Buildup Near Venezuela and Opposition Support for Action. Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa discuss the unprecedented US military buildup at the former Roosevelt Roads Naval Base in Puerto Rico, interpreted as preparations for action against Venezuela. Peña Esclusa clarifies that the true Venezuelan opposition, led by María Corina Machado (who won 93% of the primary vote), supports US action against the Maduro drug cartel. Araújo asserts that this is viewed regionally as a "crusade against organized crime," not an invasion, and would be welcomed by people tired of instability. This credible threat is already pressuring Venezuelan military officials to negotiate Maduro's exiIT. 1902 TRINIDAD

Both experts stress the difficulty of verifying initial reports of mass violence, urging patience and skepticism regarding premature assumptions about perpetrators or motivations. 930-945 Post-Ceasefire Gaza Hostages and Hezbollah Regeneration in Lebanon. David Daoud and Bill Roggio discuss how following the Gaza ceasefire, the process of returning remains of slain hostages remains delayed, which Daoud suggests Hamas uses as leverage to prevent Israel from resuming conflict and entrenching a "post-war mentality." Experts note that Hezbollah is actively regenerating its military capabilities in Lebanon, bypassing disarmament efforts. Despite continuous, targeted Israeli strikes against Hezbollah personnel, there is minimal international condemnation because the organization maintains overwhelming Shiite support and the Lebanese government fails to enforce disarmament. Plans for an international security force in Gaza remain vague. 945-1000 Post-Ceasefire Gaza Hostages and Hezbollah Regeneration in Lebanon.

Malcolm Hoenlein discusses the New York City mayoral election, focusing on the populist rise of candidate Zelldin Maamoun, whose anti-Israel stance and lack of economic knowledge threaten the city's large Israeli-founded tech sector. He reveals that a World Health Organization official admitted that promoting "famine" in Gaza was a deliberate communications and political pressure strategy, despite adequate food supply. Hoenlein confirms that Hezbollah is rearming and refashioning ordnance in Lebanon, forcing Israel's hand. University leaders have begun acknowledging that campus unrest was largely foreign-driven, specifically citing Iran. Indonesia is noted as a potential key player in future Abraham Accords. 1015-1030 NYC Election, Famine Propaganda, and Foreign Influence on Campus.

Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa discuss the unprecedented US military buildup at the former Roosevelt Roads Naval Base in Puerto Rico, interpreted as preparations for action against Venezuela. Peña Esclusa clarifies that the true Venezuelan opposition, led by María Corina Machado (who won 93% of the primary vote), supports US action against the Maduro drug cartel. Araújo asserts that this is viewed regionally as a "crusade against organized crime," not an invasion, and would be welcomed by people tired of instability. This credible threat is already pressuring Venezuelan military officials to negotiate Maduro's exiIT. 1045-1100 US Military Buildup Near Venezuela and Opposition Support for Action.

John Hardie and Bill Roggio discuss how Russia has introduced new, longer-range guided glide bombs (like the UMPK and Grom-E1) that utilize cheap kits or purpose-built designs, offering a cost-effective, more survivable standoff weapon to attack critical infrastructure deep inside Ukraine. Meanwhile, the situation in the key logistics hub of Kurakhove is deteriorating, with Russian infantry infiltrating the city, disrupting crucial drone and mortar positions, and threatening to encircle remaining Ukrainian forces. Russia continues to maintain maximalist peace demands, including a ban on Ukraine joining NATO and demilitarization, resulting in the cancellation of proposed peace talks. 1115-1130 Russia's New Glide Bombs and Ukraine's Battlefield Crisis at Kurakhove.

Alan Tonelson discusses a Supreme Court case challenging the president's tariff powers (the "Liberation Day tariffs"), which he expects the administration to win. Tonelson cites historical deference to presidential foreign policy power and the president's authority to use other well-established tariffing measures, calling arguments against his powers "legally ignorant." The conversation also explores Michael Beckley's theory of a "stagnant order" among superpowers, leading them to act parasitically or defensively. Tonelson disagrees with the stagnation premise for the US, anticipating a major productivity boom thanks to artificial intelligence. 1145-1200 Supreme Court, Trade Tariffs, and the Stagnant Order.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 AI Revolution, Cloud Growth, and the Virtual Cell. Brandon Weichert reports on how AI is driving massive growth in cloud computing, exemplified by Amazon's surging shares and AWS growth, reaching paces "we haven't seen since 2022." Weichert dismisses fears of an "AI crash" as fear-mongering rooted in ignorance and past market bubbles, arguing that AI is sparking new sectors and enhancing productivity across industries. He details the cutting-edge application of AI in creating a "virtual cell"—computer models that simulate cell functions to speed up drug discovery, understand disease mechanisms, and inform scientific investigation. 1215-1230 Iran's Contradictory Nuclear Signals and Proxy Support. Jonathan Schanzer and Bill Roggio discuss how Iran is sending contradictory messages regarding its nuclear enrichment program and negotiations, with President Pezeshkian ("the dove") threatening to restart enrichment. Schanzer explains that "reformists" like Pezeshkian serve as a calculated front to signal openness while building leverage for future talks. Iran appears willing to risk future strikes, believing it can absorb them. However, Iran's ability to significantly rebuild its air defenses is complicated by the risk of UN snapback sanctions potentially deterring Russia and China from supplying advanced systems. Sanctions relief remains a key factor in Iran's proxy support. 1230-1245 UNIFIL's Failure, Hezbollah's Rebuilding, and Syria's Fragmented Future. Edmund Fitton-Brown, Ahmad Sharawi, and Bill Roggio label the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) a "spectacular failure" that allowed Hezbollah's military buildup near the Israeli border. Despite the ceasefire terms requiring demilitarization south of the Litani River, the Lebanese government is stalling. Hezbollah is actively rebuilding its infrastructure, forcing Israel to conduct targeted enforcement actions. They also discuss Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, who is seeking international legitimacy, sanctions relief, and partners to counter ISIS, even as his state remains domestically fragmented by regional demands for separation or autonomy. 1245-100 AM UNIFIL's Failure, Hezbollah's Rebuilding, and Syria's Fragmented Future.
