And because there's never a shortage of news from the Middle East, we'll bring you all the stories you need to know. Bible questions? We'll address many of those.

Ghost delivers one of his most sweeping geopolitical breakdowns yet, mapping out a rapidly shifting Middle East where alliances, conflicts, and power structures are moving faster than the mainstream can keep up. He begins by framing the week through his four essential lenses, Q, Devolution/Continuity of Government, the Sovereign Alliance, and Trumpomania, to explain why division, controlled friction, and political “kayfabe” are not signs of collapse but strategic components of a much bigger operation. From there, Ghost dives into the deepening fracture between Israel and Turkey, Netanyahu's escalating rhetoric, joint Israeli–Greek defense drills, intelligence leaks, and the quiet American hand shaping the region. He unpacks Jonathan Pollard's explosive influence inside Israel, Huckabee's controversial meeting with him, the nuclear brinkmanship behind Iran strikes, and why Netanyahu is openly preparing for the possibility of conflict with Erdogan. The episode then widens to Syria, Lebanon, Cyprus, the Abraham Accords, and Tom Barrack's behind-the-scenes diplomatic influence, revealing how Trump-era alignments are reshaping the board. Ghost closes with updates on Congo, ISIS-linked operations in Africa, and the emerging U.S.–Russia peace structure designed to end the Ukraine conflict. A dense, global, razor-sharp hour of pure geopolitical clarity.

Many of the Islamic leaders of the Middle-Eastern Countries over the last 40 years have been trained in Moscow.  This hidden fact should be very sobering to any student of history.  Communists have always sought to infiltrate and subvert from within the energies of any group, movement, or people that can create chaos, instability, and conflict.  A deeper look into Islam reveals that they have been controlled by the communist since the 1950's.  Today's interview with Diana West will dig deeper into the history of this conquest.

Are we truly standing on the brink of Jesus Christ's return? Many say yes—and the signs are becoming impossible to ignore.

Bryote Ugly & Piffcoast -  A tale of Brothers, Gorilla Grows, Informing, Prison, & Hopeful RedemptionAs a camnabis history podcast, especially dealing with the legacy era, there are going to be some controversial shows. This is definitely one of them. Bryote lays out his thoughts on what occurred a decade ago with Piffcoast sitting there in front of him. It's awkward at moments, its hopeful at moments, and I'm pulling for him to come out ahead. Piffcoast has a lot of detractors - a lot of them were previously trying to get inside his o ring; most of them work with, or worship, other informants and/or people who threaten to snitch and drop paperwork. That's not a defense of Piffcoast, but an actual fact.

Most people online are forming opinions about Israel based on viral content, outrage clips, or conspiracy threads. But when the noise melts away, the truth looks very different from what Gen Z and Millennials are being told. In this conversation, Israeli guide and on-the-ground educator Guy Liebovitz breaks down the real political landscape of Israel today. What's true, what's distorted, and what's outright fiction? He responds directly to the narratives dominating TikTok, Instagram, and online news, offering clarity from a perspective shaped by history, culture, and lived reality. We also explore Israel's biblical significance, the image of Israel as the “trunk,” and how believers are grafted into a much older story. But the heart of this episode is Guy's clear, level-headed dismantling of the misconceptions shaping a generation's understanding of the Middle East. If you've been overwhelmed by the noise, the arguments, or the propaganda around Israel, this is the conversation that cuts through it.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the UN Security Council voted to adopt a plan by US President Donald Trump for Gaza, Israel launched a strike and Trump rolled out the red carpet for the Saudi Crown Prince.

Jim had much to report on, including an update on an important missionary outreach to the Middle East. Here are some highlights from the first half of the broadcast: --VCY's "Central Asia Project" is now complete and Jim was pleased to announce that the campaign raised $46,141.55! (For more information, review the Crosstalk program from October 8th.) --A U.N. Security Council voted 13-0 on Monday to adopt a sweeping U.S.-drafted resolution that codifies President Donald Trump's 20-point plan for Gaza and endorses a new international stabilization force and formally recognizes the establishment of a Board of Peace to be chaired by President Trump. --Hamas has been stockpiling weapons in African nations sympathetic to them. --Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir urged the targeted elimination of senior Palestinian Authority officials whom he described as terrorists in every sense of the word. --Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu affirmed Israel's opposition to a Palestinian state and committed to demilitarize Hamas during his opening remarks at the government meeting this past weekend. --The IDF announced Thursday that it has uncovered one of the most extensive and sophisticated Hamas tunnel systems discovered to date. --Iran says it has terminated an agreement signed in September with the International Atomic Energy Agency in Cairo that paved the way for renewed cooperation and relaunching inspections of its nuclear facilities. --The Pakistani jihad leader Masood Azhar has claimed that he is richer than both Elon Musk an Mark Zuckerberg and that they have no shortage of money for jihad.

Tess Ingram, UNICEF Communications Manager for the Middle East, discusses the current humanitarian situation in Gaza as weather conditions deteriorate.

Russia has long been a preferred destination for students from across Africa seeking affordable higher education. In 2023, Russia estimated that 32,000 students from the Middle East were living in the country — nearly half of them Egyptian. But in recent months, controversy has erupted in Egypt following the publication of a YouTube video that showed a Ukrainian-held prisoner of war. The young man, Amar Mohamed, was an Egyptian student in Russia who had been persuaded by Moscow's propaganda machine to join the army.

In this extremely enraged episode of Follow the Money, we ask the only question that actually matters in Trump's second crime spree through history: who is getting rich off of Trump chaos and the world's misery? Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman of Trump Tyranny Tracker and Andrea Chalupa of Gaslit Nation together trace a financial pipeline of blood money that runs from the Kremlin, through Qatar, through crypto, straight into Trump World and its favorite oligarch bagmen.  While Ukrainian kids are protesting, begging the world not to look away as Russia bombs their playgrounds and kindergartens, Trump's MAGA lackeys, like Matt Gaetz protege Rep. Anna Luna, are in Florida huddling with Putin's money man and messenger, Kirill Dmitriev, sketching out yet another fake "peace plan" that is nothing but a genocide plan for Ukraine and a launchpad for a larger war with Europe. In a blatant crime of access journalism that would make Michael Wolff jealous, Axios published Kremlin/MAGA disinformation by calling it a "peace proposal." In reality, it's a Kremlin bribe: sell off Ukraine's land, launder the theft through "diplomacy," and cash out in crypto for Trump and his longtime real estate buddy-turned-Kremlin fixer Steve Witkoff, and their sons.  Their plan is for Ukraine to give up Donbas and Crimea, which suffers under Soviet-style repression, disarm Ukraine' military, and expect the world to recognize stolen land as Russian. In exchange, Trump, Witkoff, and their sons would allegedly get crypto via Qatar and a chance to turn genocide into an investment opportunity. All of this is happening while Russia openly kidnaps Ukrainian children, erases their identities, and feeds them into a military pipeline of Putin's forever war, while half of Europe anxiously prepares for war with Moscow.  Follow the money, and you see the gaslighting of Trump once again being bribed to call the Kremlin's foreign policy his own.  Be sure to follow us on our new YouTube channel to help us get the word out about Follow the Money! https://www.youtube.com/@FollowTheMoneyTrail Want to hear bonus shows and listen to Gaslit Nation ad-free?

The resolution allows for Trump's “board of peace” to oversee multinational peacekeeping forces, Palestinian technocrats, and a local police force that would govern Gaza for a period of two years, while potentially paving a path for a Palestinian state.On Tuesday, President Trump met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman at the White House. Speaking to reporters from the Oval Office, MBS stated that Riyadh would like to join the Abraham Accords but must see a pathway toward a two-state solution. Also, Trump confirmed that the United States will sell F-35 “stealth” jets to Saudi Arabia, prompting concern from Israel's defense establishment, with the Israeli Air Force saying the deal jeopardizes Israel's air superiority.To discuss the developments unfolding with regards to Israel and the Middle East and the possibility of Palestinian statehood, Dan was joined by Ark Media contributors Nadav Eyal and Amit Segal. CREDITS:ILAN BENATAR - Producer & EditorADAAM JAMES LEVIN-AREDDY - Executive ProducerMARTIN HUERGO - Sound EditorMARIANGELES BURGOS - Additional EditingMAYA RACKOFF - Operations DirectorGABE SILVERSTEIN - ResearchYUVAL SEMO - Music Composer

Allison and Noah talk about (1) the spike in thuggish thuggery of young Jewish thugs, throwing rocks, beating with sticks, setting fires, sparking fear among Palestinians on the West Bank, and also Jewish protestors and soldiers, and (2) the UN Security Council's decision to endorse US President Trump's 20 point plan for peace in the Middle East, offering a “pathway” to a State of Palestine. For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: US President Donald Trump writes Israeli President Yitzhak Herzog (1) that peace has come to the Middle East after 3,000 years, (2) that the Jewish People are “amazing”, and (3) that we should do him a solid and pardon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, whose only crime is that he cares too damn much. As Ezra Furman once sang, “Well, what can you say to that?” All that and a tribute to a beautiful barefoot runner, iconoclastic physicist and communist malcontent, an appreciation of Allison's uber-capable daughter, and an exhibitions of army photographs. Plus, hip hop about where we are, two years after the war started.

Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. ToI founding editor David Horovitz joins host Jessica Steinberg for today’s episode. As Israel’s Supreme Court demanded the government justify its reasons for not establishing a state commission of inquiry into the events that led to the October 7 Hamas invasion and massacres in southern Israel, Horovitz discusses how the government’s current approach will not uncover what went wrong, creating a dangerous precedent for the country. The High Court also ordered the government to create effective enforcement measures against ultra-Orthodox draft dodgers, and Horovitz discusses the ruling written by High Court justice Noam Sohlberg, who rebuked the Haredi community and its assertion that Torah study outweighs army service, citing the ultra-Orthodox Rabbi Chaim Soloveitchik. Check out The Times of Israel’s ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Join our member program here: https://israelguys.link/TIGmember Join the Land of Israel fellowship: https://thelandofisrael.com/membership-tiers/ This week on The Israel Guys, we dive into the growing question: Are the Abraham Accords coming to an end? With Trump meeting Middle Eastern leaders—including the Saudi Crown Prince—and elevating Saudi Arabia to a major non-NATO ally, many are wondering whether the U.S. is shifting away from the Accords' original purpose. Analysts like Lee Smith argue that Trump's recent moves signal a return to traditional U.S.–Saudi relations based on security and arms deals, not a push for Saudi–Israel normalization. If the Accords were designed to counter Iran, Smith says their mission may already be complete. We also examine why Saudi normalization could be riskier than it appears, offering Israel little strategic benefit while exposing Saudi Arabia to internal and regional instability—especially if tied to the Palestinian issue. Combined with Biden-era efforts that re-centered the Palestinian file and, some argue, empowered Iran, the region is at an inflection point.

In this episode of The Entrepreneur Experiment, Gary sits down with Mark Breen, co-founder of Safe Events Global, the Irish team behind some of the world's most ambitious events - from Dublin Zoo's Wild Lights to Formula 1 in Qatar and mega-city festival sites across the Middle East. Mark shares the real, behind-the-scenes story of how a student “helping people up at a Frames gig” turned into running safety for shows with half a million attendees, expanding internationally, and building a 25-person specialist team that's redefining how event safety is done. He reveals why the best events feel effortless, how the industry changed post-Covid, why “no lazy no's” is the company philosophy, and how one email from Saudi Arabia transformed their entire trajectory. If you're an entrepreneur who loves hearing how niche expertise becomes a global business — and how culture, clarity, and instinct can build a category-leading company — this episode is for you.

In this episode of the Look Forward Podcast, host Molly Mintz reconnects with the audience as she dives deep into the critical role of data centers in the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence. Joined by experts Kelly Morgan and Brian Partridge from S&P Global's 451 Research, the discussion explores the unprecedented demand for data center capacity fueled by generative AI and its implications for the U.S. economy. As data centers become the backbone of the digital economy, we examine the challenges they face, including energy consumption, sustainability goals, and the pressure on the power grid. Our experts share insights on the investment boom in digital infrastructure, the potential risks associated with capital intensity, and the innovative solutions being explored to meet the growing energy demands." Additionally, we look beyond U.S. borders to understand how regions like the Middle East are positioning themselves as emerging data center hubs. Tune in for a forward-looking conversation that highlights the transformative impact of data centers on global markets and the future of technology.

In this bonus episode, Jane and Jason are joined by former Israeli Ambassador to South Africa, Ilan Baruch, to present a unique perspective on a possible route to peace between Israel and Palestine. Amb. Baruch is a part of the ‘Policy Working Group', which advocates for ‘leveling the playing field' between Israelis and Palestinians.  We discuss the need for ‘equality' among parties in negotiations, the role of the UK and international community in peace efforts, and what recognition of Palestinian statehood actually means for peace. Plus: changes in Israeli and Diasporic Jewish public opinion regarding a two-state solution, and as they Order the Disorder, Amb. Baruch puts forward a vision for a peaceful future in the Middle East and the role of international powers in achieving it. Jason pushes back on this vision of an Israel-Palestinian condominium as overly optimistic, but hopefully it makes for a great listen.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. During the White House visit of Saudi Arabia's Prince Mohammed bin Salman, known as MBS, US President Donald Trump elevates the status of Saudi Arabia in the eyes of the US, says Magid, along with several defense guarantees and sales of weapons. Israel hoped those gestures would be conditioned upon the Saudis normalizing conditions with the Jewish state, but went along with the announcement, discusses Magid. The recent UN Security Council vote gives the Board of Peace the mandate to redevelop Gaza over the next two years, says Magid, as well as a vague pathway toward a Palestinian state after that period. A resolution to establish the International Stabilization Force and the agreement on the demilitarization of Gaza were included in the vote, although it will be a tougher sell to get countries to contribute armed forces, discusses Magid, who calls the vote an internationalization of the conflict and a victory for the Trump administration. Fadwa Barghouti, the wife of prominent Palestinian prisoner Marwan Barghouti speaks with Magid for her first Israeli media interview, as part of her push for her husband's release. Barghouti tells Magid now could be the time for his release, as it could be an opportunity to work toward peace. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Doomberg to the show. Doomberg is Head Writer For The Doomberg Team and Creator of the Doomberg Substack. In this wide-ranging interview, Doomberg offers unique perspectives on global geopolitics, energy markets, and financial trends. Regarding gold, Doomberg views it as a savings vehicle and neutral reserve asset, arguing that its recent price appreciation reflects the declining neutrality of Western financial instruments. The team believes gold is reasserting itself as a critical settlement mechanism in international trade, especially as countries become wary of US dollar-based systems. On energy markets, Doomberg challenges conventional peak oil narratives, asserting that hydrocarbons are plentiful and technological advances continue to make extraction more efficient. They predict a long-term equilibrium oil price around $55 per barrel, driven by natural gas arbitrage opportunities. The United States, in their view, has enormous energy potential that could drive significant economic growth if political challenges are addressed. Geopolitically, Doomberg anticipates significant structural changes, particularly in the European Union. They argue the EU will likely dismantle due to fundamental energy challenges, especially Germany's dismantling of its nuclear power sector and loss of cheap Russian gas. The team sees the ongoing conflict in Ukraine as a potential catalyst for this potential EU breakdown. The interview also touched on potential conflicts in Venezuela and the Middle East, with Doomberg offering nuanced perspectives on resource-driven geopolitical strategies. They consistently emphasize that energy and resources underpin most global political and economic dynamics. Throughout the discussion, Doomberg highlights the importance of looking beyond mainstream narratives and propaganda, advocating for a more analytical approach to understanding global trends. They stress the need to examine data critically and develop robust mental models for interpreting complex geopolitical and economic phenomena.

Just when we thought it couldn't get any weirder (or funnier) we got to see our President perfuming another head of state (Al Sharaa) and writing letters to another sitting President (Herzog) asking for a pardon for yet another head, Bibi. But it's not just with the Middle East - the President has his sites squarely on Venezuela, and their anxiety is beginning to show. Finally, Trump's feud with Marjorie Taylor Green has hit critical mass - and we tackle all of it.   Also this week, updates on the ceasefire in Israel, obese Gazans, and even a special audience appearing live in our studio!   ________ **  Book your getaway  at Altair Hotel in Miami with Kosher Food, Separate Swimming and more!

From the Oval Office to your backyard—what they don't want you to know

In this episode, Tara and Lee dive into one of the most controversial moments in modern U.S. foreign relations: the visit of the former head of Al Qaeda in Syria to the White House. We unpack the complex dynamics between the Saudi crown prince, U.S. presidents, and the strategic imperatives that drive America's relationship with the Kingdom. From the legacy of 9/11 to Biden's foreign policy missteps and Trump's pragmatic approach to Middle East alliances, we explore why oil, dollars, and geopolitics often collide with morality, military sacrifice, and global security.

Vedran breaks down the difference between change management and change readiness, urging leaders to assess cultural alignment, technical infrastructure, and data maturity before diving into transformation.Data as the Differentiator (25:15): Vedran argues that as algorithms become commoditized, competitive advantage will come from the quality and context of a company's data. He outlines how clean, well-modeled, and contextualized data will form the backbone of any successful AI strategy.The Middle East's AI Momentum (32:05): Vedran highlights how ambition, experimentation, and government investment are fueling rapid AI growth across the Middle East.

He flunked Organic Chemistry, bombed his plan to be a doctor, and traded lab coats for liquor bottles — launching a viral wine campaign before he ever knew what “brand strategy” meant. But that failure? It's what turned Alex Strubbe into the marketing mind who believes authenticity sells better than any ad spend.At the University of Texas, Alex was chasing expectations — until life slapped him with a D-minus and an identity crisis. He pivoted to business, interned everywhere, and stumbled into marketing through a campaign called “Will You Accept This Wine?” that blew up. But behind the creativity was chaos: burnout, weight gain, and a version of himself he didn't recognize.A Birthright trip to the Middle East flipped everything. He came home rebuilt — mentally, physically, spiritually — and launched Strubbe Consultants, a business born at the same time he was. His first clients were broke dreamers, not big brands. No ad budgets, no bullshit. Just story, substance, and trust.Now, Strubbe helps founders drop the ego, fire the version of themselves they think they need to be, and build from who they actually are. His motto: “The hoodie converts better than the suit.”Because in business — just like life — pretending doesn't sell.

President Trump just dropped a geopolitical bombshell approving the sale of the stealth F-35 to Saudi Arabia, potentially shattering Israel's decades-long aerial supremacy. As Riyadh inches toward the Abraham Accords on the condition of Palestinian statehood, the stakes skyrocket. Mark Regev and Ruthie Blum dissect the consequences for Israel, the U.S. and the broader Middle East...questioning everything from Saudi trustworthiness to the future of peace and war in the region. Is normalization a strategic masterstroke or a mirage in the desert?

Zohran Mamdani was just elected to be the next Mayor of New York City. How did an anti-American, anti-Capitalism, anti-Jew, anti-Western millennial become the most powerful person in the largest city in the United States? I wanted to know. So, I talked with Zineb Riboua – a research fellow with Hudson Institute's Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East. She's written extensively on the Middle East and the ongoing power struggles in one of the most violent and unstable regions in the world. But what does Middle Eastern politics have to do with New York City and Zohran Mamandi? Zineb argues that the ideology that led the Left to believe that Israel and Britian were the fundamentally evil powers in Europe and the Middle East because of their “colonialization” is the same ideology that Zohran used to capture the attention and votes of the suicidal Democratic ideologues in New York City. The younger generations white colonialization guilt and Third Worldism philosophy were key factors in Zohrans ability to manipulate the American people in the largest city in the country to vote for a self-proclaimed Marxist Socialist. So, what happens to New York City next? Will it sprout into a utopia or fall into oblivion? Here's my conversation with Zineb Riboua.

Yoghurt is the most diverse section of the dairy case: from Icelandic skyr to creamy Australian, and fruity French Yoplait to full-fat Greek. With something to suit every palate, plus a dose of microbes to support healthy digestion, yoghurt is a staple food in the US, hero of a million smoothies, berry bowls, and snack breaks every day. Which is why it's pretty weird that, until about 50 years ago, most Americans had no idea what it was. This episode, we've got the story of the microbial miracle (and ants?) that gave us yoghurt, as well as the secret connection between those heat-loving bacteria and the evolution of lactose tolerance. Plus, for most of history, yoghurt was wildly popular in large parts of the world—the Middle East, the Balkans, Caucasus, much of Asia, and the Indian subcontinent—and totally unknown elsewhere. Even the promise that yoghurt would cure old age, made by a Nobel prize-winning scientist, couldn't persuade Americans to eat it. So how did yoghurt finally capture the hearts of Americans?
