Igennem et helt år skal Anders Fogh Rasmussen gentage den samme sætning om, at han ikke kandiderer til nogen toppost. Virkeligheden er en lidt anden. Men det er der kun tre mennesker, der ved, udover ham selv: Hans kone, hans departementschef og en enkelt rådgiver i Statsministeriet. Til sidst bliver det så ulideligt at gentage sætningen, at han rejser til udlandet, når der er tirsdags-pressemøde. Mens Anders Fogh Rasmussen er generalsekretær i NATO vælter han på cyklen og brækker sin skulder. Behandlingen kræver morfin. Det gjorde ham mere medgørlig i forhandlingerne i NATO-rådet. I dette kapitel fortæller Anders Fogh Rasmussen også, hvad han mener om, at Venstre i 2022 valgte at gå i regering med Socialdemokratiet og om det forhandlingsresultat, der kom ud af det.

Is Donald Trump dying, or just decomposing in real time? He's slurring words, disappearing for days, and bragging that he "aced" an IQ test that was actually a dementia screening. Florida Man may be wilding out destroying our White House, but his VP seems to be circling. It looks like JD Vance is wasting no time trying to lock down the Christian nationalist vote by publicly humiliating his Hindu wife Usha and cuddling up to Charlie Kirk's leather-clad widow. He's moving fast, which means he probably knows Trump's losing it even more than usual. Meanwhile, the Epstein cover-up continues with Vance's help, and Trump's cutting troops in Eastern Europe just as Putin ramps up his aggression across Europe. Here to tell us how to win the global war against fascism is Zarina Zabrisky, a Ukrainian-American investigative journalist sanctioned by Russia, and director of the new chilling film Kherson: Human Safari. It's Election Day in America. Don't miss Thursday's Gaslit Nation Election Special breaking down what the results mean for democracy and why we might still have nice things if we fight like hell.

The Far Right in Europe and German Rearmament. Judy Dempsey examines the rise of Europe's far right, noting that while they succeed in complaining, they often struggle to govern, exemplified by the AfD's lack of concrete policies. Hungary's Viktor Orbán, though long-ruling, now faces popular pressure. Dempsey highlights Italy's Giorgia Meloni as an exception who has successfully governed by clearly communicating her reform agenda. She confirms that Russia supports destabilizing far-right movements across Europe, particularly hoping for an AfD win. Additionally, Germany's Chancellor Merz is committed to redeveloping the military and infrastructure for NATO defense.

Day 1,351.Today, as reports from Pokrovsk indicate Russian troops now hold positions across nearly the entire city, prosecutors in Kharkiv launch a new war crimes investigation after footage emerged of an alleged Russian FPV drone strike on two civilians carrying a white flag near Kharkiv. We also examine today's Joint Expeditionary Force meeting in Norway – asking whether it's wise for the group to brand itself as “NATO's first responders” – before doing a deep dive into recent cases of Ukrainian and Russian spycraft. Later, we speak with the commander of a Ukrainian drone unit who helped destroy Russian forces following the so-called “breakthrough” in Dobropillya.ContributorsDominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Francis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.With thanks to Dimko Zhluktenko.SIGN UP TO THE ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST' WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:http://telegraph.co.uk/ukrainenewsletter Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.

Secretarul general al NATO se află în vizită în România pentru a participa la Forumul NATO pentru Industria de Apărare - un eveniment organizat o dată la doi ani și găzduit, în premieră, de țara noastră. Este prima vizită a lui Mark Rutte la București de cînd a preluat funcția de secretar general al Alianței și prima sa întîlnire directă cu președintele Nicușor Dan, după anunțul recent al Statelor Unite privind intenția de a retrage o parte dintre trupele dislocate în Europa de Est. Care este miza prezenței lui Mark Rutte în România pentru țara noastră?Ce rol ar putea avea România în cadrul programului „Santinela Estului”? L-am întrebat pe Claudiu Degeratu, expert în securitate și apărare.Claudiu Degeratu: „Miza este legată de promovarea Alianţei Nord-Atlantice ca fiind unul dintre cei mai importanţi piloni ai sistemului nostru de garanţii de securitate. Iar forumul, o premieră pentru România, aduce în plus un element de încredere: cel legat de avansul tehnologic şi de asigurarea unei superiorităţi din punct de vedere tehnologic a alianţei, într-un context de competiţie strategică, care nu se desfăşoară doar în plan economic, militar, ci, din ce în ce mai mult, în planul tehnologiei şi industriei de apărare. (...) România este într-un proces de reconfigurare şi de relansare a industriei de apărare. Asta însemnînd că reforma industriei de apărare nu a existat în ultimi 25 de ani. Am avut un declin accelerat la nivelul acestui sector special, cu lipsă de investiţii, de management, de priorităţi. Iar în contextul războiului din Ucraina şi al unor decizii importante la nivel NATO legate de asumarea unor investiţii, a unor cheltuieli de apărtare care să reflecte consolidarea capacităţilor naţionale de apărare, atunci sigur că şi România a trebuit să-şi lanseze propria strategie pentru industria de apărare – s-a întîmplat anul trecut.”Statele Unite au anunțat intenția de a retrage o parte din soldații americani din Estul Europei, inclusiv din România, o decizie criticată în Congresul american de o alianță bipartită, care intenționează să blocheze inițiativa. Ce șanse sînt pentru blocarea acestei decizii?Claudiu Degeratu: „Şansele sînt mici. S-ar putea să fie o poziţie de principiu din partea unor prieteni şi susţinători ai României din legislativcul american şi asta nu poate decît să ne dea încredere că şi România există pe agenda politică americană, în anumite subiecte. Sigur, noi am fi vrut ceva pozitiv, nu neapărat negativ, dar cel puţin avem un curent care ne sprijnă în zona asta. S-ar putea să fie o chestiune tactică de negociere între legislativul american şi administraţia americană care va propune proiectul de buget pe anul următor al Americii şi, bineînţeles că întotdeauna se vor folosi anumite decizii pentru anumite negocieri pe formula finală de buget.”Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta interviul integral!

Gli Araxi ospiti di Check One Two: la nuova voce del rock sardo Gli Araxi ospiti di Check One Two: il rock sardo tra memoria e futuro Il programma radiofonico Check One Two ospita gli Araxi, band nata a Capoterra nel 2022 da due figure storiche del rock indipendente sardo: Andrea Canucci e Nadir Serra. Dopo l'esperienza con gli Erotic Monkeys, il gruppo porta in radio una nuova visione musicale fatta di energia, radici e sperimentazione. Gli Araxi nascono a Capoterra nel 2022. Il progetto riunisce Andrea Canucci e Nadir Serra, già membri degli storici Erotic Monkeys. Tra il 2006 e il 2015, la band segna la scena rock del Sud Sardegna con un suono viscerale e diretto. Dopo un periodo di esperienze personali, tra trasferimenti e progetti paralleli, i due si ritrovano. Insieme decidono di dare vita a un nuovo percorso musicale. Gli Araxi debuttano con un EP che contiene Madre e Dalmazia. I brani convincono subito pubblico e addetti ai lavori. Il gruppo si esibisce su diversi palchi isolani, tra cui l'apertura a un concerto dei Marlene Kuntz. Il loro suono unisce rock alternativo, influenze stoner e una forte componente emotiva. Una sintesi che guarda avanti, ma senza dimenticare il passato. Per approfondimenti, è possibile visitare la pagina Facebook ufficiale della band e il sito del Comune di Capoterra. Dalla scena di Cagliari al ritorno in Sardegna Gli Erotic Monkeys nascono a metà anni Duemila, nella vivace scena rock di Cagliari. Con album come Samsara, concerti in tutta Italia e collaborazioni con artisti internazionali, lasciano un segno profondo. Nel 2013, Nadir Serra si trasferisce in Belgio e suona con i Corbax. In quegli stessi anni, Giuseppe Alleda entra nella formazione. Dopo lo scioglimento nel 2015, Serra continua all'estero. Canucci invece esplora la dimensione solista, con il progetto La Pioggia. Nel 2022 nasce il progetto Araxi. Alla formazione si unisce anche Mauro Frau. L'EP Odia Meglio segna una nuova tappa nel loro percorso. Il sound diventa più maturo, ma resta fedele a una visione personale e coerente. Maggiori informazioni si trovano sui profili degli Erotic Monkeys e sul sito ufficiale del Comune di Cagliari. La sfida della musica live in Sardegna Gli Araxi si confrontano con una realtà difficile. In Sardegna oggi mancano spazi per la musica dal vivo. I locali sono pochi e non sempre aperti alle band. I solisti trovano più facilmente piccoli spazi, ma per un gruppo serve continuità. Nonostante tutto, la band non si ferma. Porta avanti il suo percorso con determinazione. Attualmente lavora a un album in studio, in fase di pre-produzione. Il nuovo lavoro punta ad ampliare il suono, mantenendo l'identità costruita con l'EP. Intanto resta aperta la possibilità di una reunion degli Erotic Monkeys. I fan continuano a chiederla. Sarebbe un ritorno molto atteso per tutta la scena musicale isolana. Per seguire i prossimi sviluppi si consiglia di monitorare le pagine ufficiali del gruppo e i canali istituzionali del Comune di Capoterra.

Russia's New Glide Bombs and Ukraine's Battlefield Crisis at Kurakhove. 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. 1852
PREVIEW. Far Right-Wing Parties and Russian Interference in Europe. Judy Dempsey observes that far right-wing parties often rise by protesting the status quo but are quickly rejected in power due to unacceptable governance. Russia is identified as a well-known "outside bad actor" attempting to destabilize EU countries by influencing these anti-EU, anti-NATO groups via social media and cyberattacks. Leaders must focus on serving citizens. 1870 COMMUNARD
SHOW 11-3-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1895 TRINIDAD THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT VENEZUELA. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Middle East Disorder, Gaza Ceasefire, and Lessons from War Reporting. Bill Roggio and Husain Haqqani address the persistent disorder in the Middle East, noting that the Gaza ceasefire ("hudna") is only a pause. Ambassador Haqqani critiques the flawed concept of pursuing a "war to end all wars," suggesting the world is a situation to endure, not solve permanently. Bill Roggio compares the current stabilization efforts to the failed attempts in Afghanistan following the Taliban's ouster, noting that key players like Hamas remain undefeated or unwilling to disarm. Both experts stress the difficulty of verifying initial reports of mass violence, urging patience and skepticism regarding premature assumptions about perpetrators or motivations. 915-930 Middle East Disorder, Gaza Ceasefire, and Lessons from War Reporting.

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. 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."

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. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 NYC Election, Famine Propaganda, and Foreign Influence on Campus. 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. 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.

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.

Silicon Bites Ep264 - Day 1,349 - 2025-11-03 | Washington trims forces in NATO's front line member state, causing concern in some quarters, and signalling weakness and withdrawal in the face of a revanchist Russia. This broad geopolitical canvas unfolds as Moscow hammers Ukraine's grid and Kyiv hits back, deep and hard, at Russia's fuel arteries. Drones stalk a base in Belgian thought to host U.S. nukes, China's refiners blink on Russian oil, and Brussels looks for a way to keep Ukraine's accession moving — whether Orbán tries to throw a spanner in the works or not. Is the U.S. easing off Europe's front line? Romania confirmed the first cut of U.S. troops on NATO's eastern flank — ending a rotating brigade spread across several countries and lowering numbers at Mihail Kogălniceanu air base to 1,000.

Kosovo on road to NATO with USA support
Nuova puntata della serie sui corleonesi di Totò Riina, siamo giunti al 1988, anno dell'omicidio di Mauro Rostagno. 1. Il Ruolo di Trapani: Droga e Armi Snodo Cruciale: La Sicilia occidentale (Trapani, Castellammare del Golfo, Alcamo Marina) era uno snodo cruciale per i traffici di droga e armi, attività che ridefinirono gli equilibri di potere con l'ascesa dei Messina Denaro [01:08]. La Raffineria di Alcamo: Nel 1985 viene scoperta ad Alcamo la più grande raffineria d'Europa, che produceva "siciliana" pura al 90% [01:44], gestita dai clan emergenti alleati con i Corleonesi [03:41]. L'Attentato a Carlo Palermo: L'ordine di uccidere il giudice istruttore Carlo Palermo (nell'attentato di Pizzolungo) era venuto da chi controllava l'enorme traffico di eroina e vedeva minacciata l'attività, sebbene l'attentato fallì [02:42]. Fonti di Finanziamento Clandestine: Le "black operation" dei servizi segreti (azioni segrete che implicano illegalità) venivano finanziate tramite fonti non ufficiali come tangenti, traffici illeciti di armi e droga, e malversazione di denaro pubblico [04:50]. 2. Il Ruolo dei Servizi Segreti e Gladio Centro Scorpione (Gladio): A Castelluzzo (Trapani) operava il Centro Scorpione, uno dei centri addestramento speciale (CAS) di Gladio, l'organizzazione stay-behind [07:10]. * Compiti Ufficiali e Depistaggi: Ufficialmente, Gladio a Trapani avrebbe dovuto controllare le mosse della Libia e collaborare con l'Alto Commissariato Antimafia, ma non risulta abbia mai prodotto rapporti in tal senso [07:41]. Il documentario suggerisce che il depistaggio (per coprire omicidi o reati di associazione) è cruciale per proteggere persone che "non possono finire in carcere poiché appartenenti a quell'ingranaggio" [05:42]. L'Incidente di Kinisia: Nell'agosto 1988, presso l'aeroporto abbandonato di Kinisia (Trapani), un aereo militare atterra per un'operazione rapida di scarico e carico di casse [09:14]. Mauro Rostagno, con la sua telecamera, riprende l'operazione e riferisce di aver filmato delle armi [10:05]. 3. L'Omicidio di Mauro Rostagno La Minaccia in TV: Rostagno, ex leader di Lotta Continua e sociologo, dirigeva i servizi giornalistici dell'emittente locale RTC a Trapani. I suoi editoriali di denuncia contro la mafia locale (in particolare il traffico di droga) e la corruttela politica erano diventati una costante "spina nel fianco" [18:16]. Il Movente: L'ordine di ucciderlo fu dato da Cosa Nostra trapanese, che mal sopportava la sua azione di denuncia [20:18]. Rostagno ricordava la lotta antimafia di Peppino Impastato [20:33]. La Cassetta Scomparsa: Dopo l'omicidio, la sua borsa e l'ufficio vennero setacciati [11:42]. Alcuni collaboratori riferirono che la borsa conteneva la videocassetta di Kinisia [11:57], che non fu mai mandata in onda [10:23]. I Mandanti e gli Esecutori: La sentenza sull'omicidio ha scagionato il cofondatore di Saman, Francesco Cardella, e ha ritenuto responsabili: Mandante: Francesco Messina Denaro [21:09] (capo della cosca) Esecutore: Vito Mazzara [31:34] (capo della cosca di Valderice). 4. Il Contesto di Affari e Misteri Il documentario traccia una fitta rete di personaggi coinvolti in misteri italiani: Francesco Cardella: Cofondatore della comunità Saman [10:33], amico di Bettino Craxi [29:46]. Fu accusato dell'omicidio Rostagno, fuggì in Nicaragua e morì nel 2011 [29:26]. Era legato alla vicenda Mino Pecorelli [33:46] (caso Mattei) attraverso il giornalista Franco Simeoni. Vincenzo Licausi: Successore al comando del Centro Scorpione di Gladio [07:56]. Fu inviato in Somalia, ebbe rapporti con la giornalista Ilaria Alpi e morì in un agguato nel 1993, poco prima di testimoniare su Gladio e traffico di armi/scorie nucleari [30:04]. [01:44] Scoperta della raffineria di eroina ad Alcamo (la "siciliana" al 90%). [02:42] L'attentato al giudice Carlo Palermo collegato al controllo della raffineria. [05:21] I finanziamenti illeciti (armi/droga) come fonte delle "black operation" dei servizi segreti. [07:10] Riferimento al Centro Scorpione di Gladio a Trapani. [09:14] L'atterraggio dell'aereo militare sospetto all'aeroporto di Kinisia. [10:05] Rostagno dichiara di aver filmato delle armi nelle casse. [10:23] La cassetta contenente il documento di Kinisia non venne mai mandata in onda. [11:14] Rostagno collega la lotta alla droga alla lotta alla mafia. [20:18] Il movente dell'omicidio: la mafia trapanese mal sopporta le denunce di Rostagno. [31:34] I condannati per l'omicidio: mandante Francesco Messina Denaro, esecutore Vito Mazzara. [33:46] La figura di Franco Cardella collegata al caso Mino Pecorelli (Mattei).

1. LONDINIUM 91 CE. Seven Warnings, Part I. Gaius and Germanicus, joined by retired centurions, convened at the Friends of History Debating Society to discuss Germanicus's list of seven maxims detailing how empires, specifically the US, engage in self-harm or self-destruction. Gaius offered the example of the emperor deciding Nigeria needs attention due to the killing of Christians, asserting America has no interest whatsoever in this venture. He contrasted this unnecessary entanglement with Rome's historical method of handling threats in its self-interest. Rome, when it decided to win, completely wiped out resisting enemies, as demonstrated by the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE and the earlier obliteration of Sepphoris, the capital of Galilee, around 4 BCE. The Romans even renamed Judea to Palestine to deny the populace their historical identity. Germanicus then presented the first four maxims routinely ignored by US war fighters: (1) Never let a foreign power define your interests and objectives—this warning cited historical entanglement examples, including the British in two World Wars and modern manipulation by Ukraine, NATO countries, and Israel; (2) Never let initial success fool you into thinking you're winning—Germanicus noted that this "victory disease" affected the Japanese after Pearl Harbor and the US during the invasion of Iraq and the initial stages of the Ukraine war; (3) The failure chosen now is always better than the failure forced upon you later—this maxim addresses the destructive "stay the course" mentality, exemplified by the Vietnam War, driven by courtiers worried about reputation rather than effectiveness; (4) Judgment of the enemy should not be confirmed by internal biases—this bias leads to disastrous strategy, such as the initial belief that the Japanese could not fly effectively due to poor eyesight, viewing Pearl Harbor as a "freak."

President Donald Trump just forced China into its most vulnerable position in decades. Trump wrapped up a weeklong trip to Asia and, after years of tension and economic warfare, negotiated a sweeping deal with Beijing. Victor Davis Hanson breaks down the specifics of the deal—including China's promise to stop the flow of fentanyl to Mexico—how this breakthrough happened, and what this means for the future of U.S.-China relations on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” “ [China] sized up the domestic renaissance here at home—low inflation, basically 3% or below, 3%, probably, at the end of the year of GDP, stock market record levels, vast new investments—and they said: You know what? The United States is back. And the foreign—the atmosphere is very different. “Neutrals will probably join them. And their friends are emboldened. So, they've got new alliances. NATO is stronger than it's ever been. So, you add all of that up and the Chinese said to themselves the following: I think it's time to cut a deal. Not that we're gonna give up on trying to erode and subvert the United States.” (0:00) Trump and Xi's Deal (0:46) Why Now?

[00:02:36] – Trump's New Nigerian WarKnight opens with Trump's threat to invade Nigeria “guns-a-blazing” to stop Christian massacres, calling it Caesar-style virtue signaling to distract from domestic scandals and project false moral authority abroad. [00:20:23] – BBC's “There Is No Genocide” LieKnight slams the BBC for denying Nigerian Christian massacres, calling it “weaponized gaslighting.” He says Western media now protects jihadists to maintain globalist narratives and justify censorship of independent reporting. [00:55:33] – Epstein's Money Laundering Cover-UpKnight exposes how Epstein's financial crimes were buried by Trump's labor secretary, Alex Acosta. He calls it the smoking gun proving Epstein's network was a bipartisan protection racket for the elite. [01:00:40] – Uber's Driverless Control GridKnight warns that Uber and Lyft's self-driving future isn't about convenience—it's a global surveillance and mobility-control system. He calls it “the digital choke collar for humanity,” built to end private ownership. [01:05:24] – Make America Great Gatsby AgainKnight ridicules Trump's “Great Gatsby” White House party as a symbol of elite decadence, likening it to Versailles arrogance as 42 million Americans lose food assistance. “They feast while the republic starves,” he says. [01:15:16] – The Civil War TrapKnight analyzes how both parties are provoking a staged civil war to justify authoritarian rule. He warns that MAGA and Antifa are two sides of the same controlled opposition designed to destroy real liberty. [01:26:21] – Operation Gladio & NATO's False FlagsKnight connects today's political chaos to NATO's Cold War Operation Gladio—where Western intelligence staged terrorism to expand state power. He says the same playbook is being revived under Trump's drug war.

[00:02:36] – Trump's New Nigerian WarKnight opens with Trump's threat to invade Nigeria “guns-a-blazing” to stop Christian massacres, calling it Caesar-style virtue signaling to distract from domestic scandals and project false moral authority abroad. [00:20:23] – BBC's “There Is No Genocide” LieKnight slams the BBC for denying Nigerian Christian massacres, calling it “weaponized gaslighting.” He says Western media now protects jihadists to maintain globalist narratives and justify censorship of independent reporting. [00:55:33] – Epstein's Money Laundering Cover-UpKnight exposes how Epstein's financial crimes were buried by Trump's labor secretary, Alex Acosta. He calls it the smoking gun proving Epstein's network was a bipartisan protection racket for the elite. [01:00:40] – Uber's Driverless Control GridKnight warns that Uber and Lyft's self-driving future isn't about convenience—it's a global surveillance and mobility-control system. He calls it “the digital choke collar for humanity,” built to end private ownership. [01:05:24] – Make America Great Gatsby AgainKnight ridicules Trump's “Great Gatsby” White House party as a symbol of elite decadence, likening it to Versailles arrogance as 42 million Americans lose food assistance. “They feast while the republic starves,” he says. [01:15:16] – The Civil War TrapKnight analyzes how both parties are provoking a staged civil war to justify authoritarian rule. He warns that MAGA and Antifa are two sides of the same controlled opposition designed to destroy real liberty. [01:26:21] – Operation Gladio & NATO's False FlagsKnight connects today's political chaos to NATO's Cold War Operation Gladio—where Western intelligence staged terrorism to expand state power. He says the same playbook is being revived under Trump's drug war. [02:25:57] – Vene-Nam & Trump's Wag-the-Dog WarKnight mocks Trump's planned Venezuela war as “Vinnie-Nam,” arguing it's a manufactured distraction from economic collapse and corruption—proof that the empire of lies now feeds on endless conflict.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show: Podcast regular, United Church Minister turned whistleblower, Canadian Hero, humanitarian, loving father, published writer and author, public speaker and podcaster, documentary filmmaker, Nobel Peace Prize nominee, co-founder of the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State, righteous soul, and Eagle Strong Voice: Kevin AnnettBorn in Canada, Kevin began his career as a United Church minister, driven by a deep compassion for the marginalized. In the early 1990s, while serving in Port Alberni, British Columbia, he uncovered evidence of unimaginable atrocities: the systematic abuse, torture, and murder of Indigenous children in church-run residential schools. Rather than remain silent, Kevin spoke out, documenting mass graves and survivor testimonies that revealed a genocidal collusion between church, state, and corporate powers. And this was only the beginning of his fight.Refusing to be silenced, Kevin founded the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State (ITCCS), a groundbreaking platform to hold the powerful accountable through common law courts. His work has most recently exposed the Ninth Circle, a satanic cult allegedly involving high-ranking figures like Prince Andrew, King Charles, and Vatican officials, including Cardinals Reinhardt Marx and Timothy Dolan. Kevin's revelations are harrowing: children subjected to ritual sacrifices, the Vatican's complicity in MK ULTRA-style programming; and the use of military bases, churches, and even NATO headquarters for Ninth Circle ritual ceremonies. The stakes are high, and the enemy is formidable. Kevin's evidence points to a vast network - church, state, and corporate elites - protected by wealth, power, and a system that thrives on the expendability of children. He reveals how the Vatican and CIA collaborate. He warns of geopolitical maneuvers, such as attempts by Donald Trump and Cardinal Dolan to control Vatican funds, mirroring the forced resignation of Pope Benedict. Yet, amidst this darkness, Kevin sees hope: “You create hope by what you do,” he urges, calling on society to move from spectatorship to action.INTERIM REPORT:https://murderbydecree.com/2025/08/09/interim-report-of-the-special-prosecutor/#page-contentCONNECT WITH KEVIN:Email: angelfire101@protonmail.comPhone: 289-680-8724Websites:-Republic of Kanata: https://republicofkanata.org/-Radio Free Kanata: https://bbsradio.com/radiofreekanata-'Murder by Decree' & other books published by Kevin: https://murderbydecree.com/#books-'Unrepentant' Documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Czej73SfYJcCONNECT WITH THE IMAGINATION:EMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comMy Substack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theimaginationAll links: https://direct.me/theimaginationpodcastRIFE TECHNOLOGIES:https://realrifetechnology.com/15% Code: 420CZTL METHELENE BLUE:https://cztl.bz?ref=2BzG1Free Shipping Code: IMAGINSupport the show
Discussion with Jonas from Finland on Finland and Austrian NATO Accession

What does cybersecurity look like beyond Earth's atmosphere? That's the question at the heart of this conversation with Kristiina Omri, Vice President of Special Programs at CybExer Technologies, and Aare Reintam, the company's COO. We met in Tallinn on the eve of the Software Defined Space Conference to explore how Estonia, in collaboration with the European Space Agency, is helping define the future of space cybersecurity through the world's first Space Cyber Range. The story begins unexpectedly—with a childhood memory of marmalade in a tube, the same kind sent to Soviet astronauts in orbit. For Aare Reintam, that small detail became the first spark of fascination with space, one that decades later evolved into CybExer's partnership with ESA. Together they've created a digital testing environment where satellites, ground stations, and communication protocols can be stress-tested for cyber resilience long before launch. It's a bold move in an era when satellites underpin everything from GPS and precision farming to air travel and climate observation, yet often rely on decades-old technology vulnerable to attack. Kristiina Omri explains how the Space Cyber Range replicates real-world missions, allowing engineers and analysts to train under simulated attack conditions that feel indistinguishable from their actual control systems. The range combines the precision of digital twins with the competitive intensity of cyber exercises, preparing teams for threats that can ripple from orbit to everyday life on Earth. The conversation covers everything from the growing space-debris crisis to the global shortage of cybersecurity professionals, and the urgent need to blend space engineering with cyber education. We also discuss the deeper strategic implications. What happens when quantum computing enters the battlefield? How should Europe prepare for the convergence of cyber and kinetic threats in orbit? And what lessons can be learned from Estonia's leadership in NATO cyber defense as it extends that expertise to the stars? By the end of the discussion, one theme stands out clearly: the future of cybersecurity is no longer confined to our planet. From digital twins to orbital trust networks, CybExer Technologies and the European Space Agency are proving that the next frontier for cyber readiness lies in space itself.

What role does cybersecurity play when the battlefield extends beyond Earth's atmosphere? In this special episode recorded live in Tallinn for the fifth anniversary of the Software Defined Space Conference, I sit down with Kalev Koidumäe, CEO of the Estonian Defence and Aerospace Industry Association, to explore how software and security are transforming the future of space and defense. Kalev shares how Estonia, a nation of just 1.3 million people, has built global credibility through innovation, collaboration, and cyber resilience. From the lessons of the 2007 state-level cyberattack to the country's integration of space technologies within NATO's defense framework, Estonia has developed a model that combines agility with strategic foresight. Our conversation spans everything from the evolution of Estonia's space sector to its growing ecosystem of AI-driven defense technologies, autonomous systems, and satellite solutions. Kalev also explains how lessons from the war in Ukraine are reshaping Europe's defense landscape and accelerating the need for resilient, software-defined systems. What makes this discussion particularly fascinating is the balance Estonia maintains between national sovereignty and international cooperation. Kalev explains how the country's reserve army model, cyber education initiatives, and public-private partnerships have created an ecosystem where innovation is both strategic and deeply rooted in civic responsibility. It's a blueprint for how smaller nations can play a meaningful role in global security through ingenuity and collaboration. As the world navigates an era of heightened geopolitical tension and rapid technological advancement, this discussion offers a glimpse into how small nations can make a big impact in securing both cyberspace and outer space. So what can larger nations learn from Estonia's approach to innovation, readiness, and cyber defense? And how might software continue to redefine the future of space security?

From cyberattacks to disinformation campaigns, hybrid warfare is reshaping global security. Visiting the European Centre of Excellence for Countering Hybrid Threats in Helsinki, Guardian Australia's political editor, Tom Mcllroy, speaks with its director, Teija Tiilikainen, about how the EU and Nato are confronting covert interference from Russia, China and other non-democratic countries – and what Australia can learn from Europe's approach
Trump's Nuclear Testing Remarks and the China-Russia Partnership Guest: Anatol Lieven Anatol Lieven discusses President Trump's remark about testing nuclear weapons "on an equal basis" with Russia and China, suggesting it likely refers to missile testing rather than actual nuclear detonations. Lieven analyzes the "no limits" China-Russia partnership, noting its inherent contradictions: China refuses to recognize Russia's annexations of Ukrainian territory and fears Russia's complete defeat, though it simultaneously opposes Russia being gravely weakened. Lieven also addresses the controversy regarding NATO-supplied forces in Ukraine identified as extreme ethnic nationalists, particularly the Azov regiment, noting that their military importance to the defense effort makes disbanding them highly unlikely.
