What is Krav Maga supposed to be?In this episode, I sit down with Ryan Hoover for a direct and honest conversation about evolution in self-defense, the difference between teaching and coaching, and why many systems lose their way.We speak openly about:Why Krav Maga must evolve or become irrelevantThe difference between an instructor and a coachHow ego and insecurity damage studentsWhy wrestling and boxing are foundationalThe myth of one-on-one fighting as “self-defense”The reality of October 7th and how it changed perspectivesWeapons, mindset, and the emotional cost of violenceWhy lineage matters — but blind tradition does notWhy decision-making under stress matters more than technique collectionThis is not a debate about styles.It is a discussion about responsibility.If you are serious about self-defense, coaching, leadership, or building something that actually works under pressure — this episode is for you.Growth requires discomfort.Stagnation is a choice.www.kravmagaisrael.com

Tottenham Hotspur have finally sacked Thomas Frank. After a 2-1 defeat to Newcastle, the club have pulled the trigger. And just like that, the Thomas Frank era is over. In today's show we react to the decision, the timing, and what it says about where Spurs are right now. Was this inevitable. Or has the club once again pressed the panic button? We'll talk about: • The performance against Newcastle and what went wrong • When Frank had lost the dressing room • The bigger structural issues at Tottenham • Who realistically comes in next • And what this means for the rest of the season There were signs. There were warning lights. But sacking a manager mid-season is never just about one result. So was this about Newcastle. Or was it about months of drift? As Spurs fans, we've seen this cycle before. New manager bounce. Optimism. Stagnation. Reset. The question now is simple. Does this change anything. Get your thoughts in the comments. Who do you want next. And where do Spurs actually go from here. COYS.

Healthy relationships don't thrive on chemistry alone they grow when both partners are committed to personal growth.In this episode of Coaching In Session, relationship and mindset coach Michael Rearden explores why personal development is the foundation of strong, lasting relationships. He explains how relationships stagnate when growth stops, why responsibility and communication matter more than intention, and how mutual support creates deeper emotional connection.Using powerful analogies like gardening and camping, Michael breaks down how nurturing yourself directly impacts the health of your relationship. When both partners show up fully, take ownership of their growth, and support each other's evolution, relationships don't just survive, they strengthen.If you're feeling disconnected, stuck, or unsure how to grow together instead of apart, this episode offers practical relationship coaching insights to help you build a partnership rooted in growth, communication, and shared commitment.

SummaryIn this episode, the host explores the critical distinction between stillness and stagnation, emphasizing that stillness is a chosen path that fosters self-awareness and direction, while stagnation is rooted in fear and avoidance. The discussion includes practical insights on how to identify and navigate these states, the importance of time constraints in stillness, and personal reflections on overcoming stagnation through curiosity, simplicity, and self-trust.TakeawaysStillness is about discovering direction, not being stuck.Stagnation is often driven by fear and avoidance.Curiosity, simplicity, and self-trust are key to stillness.Stillness allows for internal awareness and reflection.Stagnation can lead to an endless loop of inaction.Time constraints help define the practice of stillness.Avoid distractions that lead to stagnation.Reflection questions can pivot you from stagnation to stillness.Naming your stillness can clarify your intentions.Honesty is essential in the journey of becoming by design.

Collapse has long been discussed in the public imagination as something that happens suddenly, immediately turning the world upside down. But history shows that collapse is more often characterized by the slow unraveling of a civilization. Usually, this is due to some combination of resource scarcity, economic stagnation, and compounding disruptions to productive capacity – yet it's barely perceptible in the day-to-day lives of the people within it. What are the signs that we could be living through such a moment right now, and if we are, how does history tell us to prepare for what's to come?  Today, Nate is joined by Balázs Matics, the author of the popular Substack blog The Honest Sorcerer, to explore the systemic reasons behind civilization's potential collapse, the importance of energy security, and the growing effects of geopolitical instability. Balázs emphasizes the overlooked importance of industrial inputs such as diesel fuel, and the implications of this as more parts of the world face resource scarcities. Together, they also discuss the possibilities of more localized production and communities rooted in compassion and cooperation as ways to navigate a post-growth future. As economic, geopolitical, and resource issues become more pressing, what will this mean for the future of environmental concerns such as global heating? What economic and industrial signals should governments actually be paying attention to in order to understand the health of a society? Finally, how can the humans paying attention to this story open up discourse where they live and start sowing the seeds of more resilient communities, even as the web of global complexity unravels?    About Balázs Matics: Balázs Matics is the author of the Substack blog The Honest Sorcerer where he writes on the topics of energy, economics, industrial materials, and other matters relevant to the future of civilization. He is located in Eastern Europe, where he is an industrial product engineer by training and has two decades of experience in manufacturing, supply chain, and project management at various multinational corporations. Having been involved in a number of international projects and after completing a 2 year post-graduate leadership program in supply chain and logistics, he has developed a unique understanding of the interconnected nature of our world and technologies.   Show Notes and More   Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

Markets may still enjoy short-term momentum, but long-term retirement planning must confront a different reality: elevated valuations, lower forward returns, and rising sequence-of-returns risk. Richard Rosso explains why retirees face a near-term tailwind in market returns—but potentially long-term secular stagnation that demands tighter portfolio guardrails. Drawing on research from Michael Kitces and Wade D. Pfau, we discuss why historically tested retirement income strategies matter more today than at any point in the last two decades. Rich breaks down: Why short-term market strength can be dangerous for new retirees How sequence-of-returns risk dominates the first 10–15 years of retirement Why portfolios need rules and guardrails, not static allocations How retirees over the last 3–5 years should consider "goal scooping" after strong market gains Why taxes still materially affect retirement income sustainability How to mentally and emotionally prepare for inevitable market volatility At RIA, we use valuation-based planning, forward-return assumptions, and behavioral coaching to help retirees avoid forced selling, manage withdrawals, and maintain confidence through changing market cycles. Retirement is not static—and neither is risk. This is about preparing before markets test your plan. 0:00 - INTRO 0:19 - Managing Retirement Income when Markets are Expensive 2:21 - Time Correction of Markets 3:59 - When Valuations Matter 5:52 - Being Prepared for Stagnation 15:04 - How to Battle Stagnation in Retirement 18:37 - Goal Scooping for Retirees 20:51 - Making Sure of Guaranteed Income 24:32 - Determining Personal Rate of Return Hosted by RIA Advisors Director of Financial Planning, Richard Rosso, CFP Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/live/5MX3c-VM-n0?feature=share ------- Watch our previous show, "1-29-26 Market Risks Behind Powell's "Nonrestrictive" Stance," here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vX2vPQQp28 -------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Markets Stall at 7,000: Breakout or Bull Trap?" is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meTHta-tC1o&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestm entadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #RetirementIncome #MarketValuations #SequenceOfReturns #FinancialPlanning

Ubisoft layoffs point to deeper problems in AAA, a16z fund performance shows VC money tightening up, and TikTok's future as a growth channel for games looks far less certain — from ownership issues to slowing ads and algorithm risk. We talk about what this means for user acquisition, why AI video apps are starting to matter, concerns around GDC attendance and safety, The New York Times stepping into mobile games, and why monetizing word games remains so hard. We also cover the launch of High Guard and wrap up with what to watch next as the industry enters its next reset.00:00 Welcome01:49 Meeting Mihir Va from EA05:50 PGC Recap and Rumors17:23 Ubisoft Layoffs and Critique21:28 A16Z Fund Performance Analysis30:44 TikTok's New American Entity31:18 TikTok's Impact on the Gaming Industry31:51 Ownership and Future of TikTok in the US33:37 Concerns Over Content Moderation and Algorithm34:36 TikTok's Stagnation and Advertising Decline35:36 Emerging Threats: AI Video Apps38:31 GDC Attendance and Safety Concerns43:46 New York Times Enters the Mobile Gaming Market49:36 Challenges in Monetizing Word Games52:13 Launch and Reception of High Guard57:33 Conclusion and Upcoming Topics

Was Katherina Reiches Jahreswirtschaftsbericht verschweigtNeuverschuldung ersetzt Reformen und kaschiert strukturelle Schwächen. Was als Stabilität gilt, entpuppt sich als politisch organisierter Stillstand.Ein Kommentar von Janine Beicht.Deutschland wächst, so lautet die offizielle Erzählung. Ein Prozent, sagt die Bundesregierung. Ein Prozent nach Jahren der Stagnation, nach zwei Rezessionsjahren, nach einer Phase, in der industrielle Substanz, Investitionsbereitschaft und internationale Wettbewerbsfähigkeit systematisch erodiert sind. Dieses Prozent wird nun als Beleg für eine Trendwende verkauft. Tatsächlich ist es nichts weiter als ein statistisches Aufbäumen, erkauft mit Schulden, erkünstelt durch staatliche Ausgaben und politisch aufgeladen, um Handlungsfähigkeit zu simulieren, wo strukturelles Versagen fortbesteht.Die Rezessionsjahre: Fundament des Scheiterns In den Jahren 2023 und 2024 schrumpfte das Bruttoinlandsprodukt um 0,9 beziehungsweise 0,5 Prozentpunkte, eine Periode anhaltender Kontraktion, die von der Ampel-Regierung unter Olaf Scholz und Robert Habeck durch manipulierte Statistiken kaschiert wurde. (1) Das Statistische Bundesamt verkündete zunächst zu niedrige Schrumpfungsraten, um die Regierung günstiger dastehen zu lassen, und korrigierte die Zahlen erst nach der Abwahl nach unten. (2) Für 2025 ergab sich ein Mini-Wachstum von 0,2 Prozent, knapp am dritten Rezessionsjahr vorbei, doch Deutschland hinkte anderen Industrienationen weit hinterher. (1) Die Industriebranchen versanken in der Krise, Exporte in die USA brachen um fast zehn Prozent ein aufgrund höherer Zölle (3), und die Inflationsrate betrug im Jahresdurchschnitt 2,2 Prozent. Die schwache Industriekonjunktur verursachte massiven Stellenabbau in Konzernen, während die Deindustrialisierung voranschritt, mit Verlagerungen von Produktionen ins Ausland und Deinvestitionen hierzulande. Besonders Führungskräfte im mittleren Management wurden in ungewöhnlichem Ausmaß entlassen.Trotz enormer Staatsausgaben verpufften die Effekte, da strukturelle Defizite wie hohe Energiepreise, überbordende Bürokratie und sinkende Wettbewerbsfähigkeit ignoriert wurden. Habecks Prognosen mussten ständig nach unten angepasst werden, ein Erbe, das nahtlos übernommen wurde. Die Energiepolitik, fixiert auf Erneuerbare, überging die Zerstörung der Kernkraftwerke (4) und schob hohe Kosten auf externe Faktoren wie Putin und Trump ab, statt eigene Fehler einzugestehen. Die Prognose für 2026: Ein Trugbild aus SchuldenDie schwarzrote Koalition unter Friedrich Merz hat die Wachstumsprognose für 2026 auf 1,0 Prozent gesenkt. In einer Pressekonferenz am Mittwoch, den 28. Januar 2026, stellte die Bundesministerin für Wirtschaft und Energie, Katherina Reiche, den Jahreswirtschaftsbericht vor, in dem der neue Wert nach einer ursprünglichen Schätzung von 1,3 Prozent präsentiert wurde. „Für 2026 zeichnet sich eine konjunkturelle Erholung ab. Wir erwarten in diesem Jahr ein Wachstum von rund 1% […] Das ist etwas niedriger, als wir in der Herbstprojektion angenommen haben. Damals waren wir von Wachstumsraten von 1,3 % ausgegangen. Hintergrund für die etwas vorsichtige Einschätzung ist die Tatsache, dass ich die erwarteten Impulse aus den Wirtschaft- und finanzpolitischen Maßnahmen nicht ganz so schnell und nicht in dem Ausmaß realisiert hatten, wie wir das angenommen haben.“ Katherina Reiche (5)Dieses magere Prozent basiert jedoch nicht auf echter Stärke, sondern auf Pumpwachstum durch staatliche Maßnahmen. Für 2027 werden 1,4 Prozent erwartet, doch historische Muster deuten auf weitere Korrekturen hin. Die Wirtschaftsweisen prognostizierten 0,9 Prozent (6), und selbst das wirkt übertrieben. Die Erholung im zweiten Halbjahr 2025 blieb schwächer als geplant, was den Jahresstart belastete. Die binnenwirtschaftliche Dynamik steigt durch Konsumausgaben und Investitionen, aber ohne Produktivitätsgewinne bleibt sie hohl....https://apolut.net/ein-prozent-hoffnung-von-janine-beicht/ Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, Greg and Colan break down the surprising success of Hytale after its departure from Riot Games, the strategic restructuring at Ubisoft, and the evolving multi-platform future of Xbox. Colan provides a deep-dive "dissertation" on the three eras of Riot Games publishing and explains why the studio may be "trapped by its own success".Key Discussion Points1. The Hytale Miracle: From Cancellation to Chart-Topper The Buyback: After Riot Games effectively shuttered the project, the original founders bought back the rights and launched into Early Access. Market Dominance: Within its first weeks, Hytale ranked #4 in search and #9 on Twitch, commanding roughly 2.5% of the total gaming market. The China Factor: Colan highlights the massive "opportunity cost" for Riot/Tencent, noting that Hytale could have been a native competitor to Minecraft in a Chinese market with over 700 million accounts.2. The Evolution (and Stagnation) of Riot Games Publishing The Golden Era (2019-2020): Riot enjoyed a historic run with "heaters" like Valorant, Teamfight Tactics, and Legends of Runeterra. The "Trapped" Success: Colan argues that Riot is now bloated by the weight of its own success; the immense resources required to maintain massive live-service hits prevents them from taking bold risks on new IP. Riot Forge Lessons: Why Riot's attempt to release smaller "love letters" to the community failed to act as a funnel for new players.3. Ubisoft's Strategic Reset Cancellations & Restructuring: Ubisoft has canceled six games, including the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake, while mandating a 5-day return-to-office policy. The Global Shift: An analysis of why game development is shifting from expensive hubs like California to subsidized regions like Riyadh.4. The Shooter Landscape: Highguard vs. Marathon Highguard's Attention Deficit: Despite viral memes, the game lacks measurable player attention, making it a high-risk launch in a genre dominated by Apex and Overwatch. The Case for Marathon: Colan remains "bullish" on Bungie's Marathon, predicting it will successfully claim a "bronze medal" spot in the extraction shooter hierarchy.Featured Quotes"Riot is first-in-class at maintaining live ecosystems, but that success becomes a weight. Why risk anything when you have a thing you can monetize forever?" — Colan NeeseResources & Links Colan's Newsletter: Subscribe to "Patch Notes" on Substack or LinkedIn for the full dissertation on Riot's publishing history.

Stagnation and a lack of safety protocols in the lifestyle have left many lifestylers disenfranchised with clubs and events over the last year. They're going less often and spending less money.  But does that mean the lifestyle is dying?

The Collapse of the Chinese Real Estate Market and Economic Stagnation. Guests: ANNE STEVENSON-YANGand GORDON CHANG. China's property sector faces a permanent downturn, with prices dropping 30–60% and enough vacant apartments to house billions. The government lacks the funds for a rescue. Xi Jinping's focus on high-tech is insufficient to replace real estate, which previously accounted for 25% of GDP.1905 SHANGHAI

​​Join our champion program: mark@themomentumcompany.comAttend a Thriving Leader event: https://thriving-leader-2026.lovable.app/Instagram: @the.momentum.companyLinkedIn: /momentum-companyIn this episode of the Intentional Agribusiness Leader Podcast, Mark Jewell is joined by Ron Lynch — filmmaker, screenwriter, entrepreneur, and spiritual thinker — for one of the most profound and unconventional conversations the show has hosted to date.Ron brings a rare perspective shaped by decades in Hollywood, direct-response marketing, storytelling, and deep personal surrender. From writing films connected to Steven Spielberg and Kathleen Kennedy, to launching billion-dollar products like OxiClean and GoPro, to stepping away from fame-driven success in favor of purpose-driven impact, Ron's life embodies the very principles he teaches.Together, Mark and Ron explore a powerful idea: what if your life is a screenplay already written — and your job is to step into it intentionally? They unpack surrender, ego, risk, divine interruption, and how stagnation often signals that we're resisting the next plot twist God is inviting us into.This episode isn't about productivity.It's about becoming.Key TakeawaysIntentionality Begins with SurrenderFor Ron, intention isn't control — it's surrender. True intentional living means releasing ego, making space for divine interruption, and trusting that God's plan is better than our own. When we deviate, we're corrected — not punished, but lovingly redirected.Your Life Has an Arc — and You Are the Main CharacterEvery great story has a beginning, a transformation, and an ending. Ron challenges listeners to stop drifting through life and start recognizing where they are in their own narrative. Growth requires movement. Stagnation is a sign the story has stalled.If You're Stuck, You're Avoiding RiskWhen life feels boring, stagnant, or misaligned, Ron offers a direct truth: you're not taking enough risk. Change requires stepping into uncertainty. Plot twists only happen when the hero is willing to act.Plot Points Create ProgressJust like a screenplay, life requires intentional plot points — concrete actions that move the story forward. Vision without action keeps people trapped in fantasy. Transformation happens when ideas are turned into steps.Leave White Space for the CallRon emphasizes the importance of margin. When life is over-scheduled, there's no room for unexpected opportunity. The most meaningful shifts often come through interruptions — conversations, invitations, or moments we couldn't have planned.You Are Not the Studio HeadOne of the most grounding reminders of the episode: you are not in charge — and you don't want to be. Leadership, faith, and fulfillment grow when we stop pretending we're in control and return to childlike trust.Becoming You Is the AssignmentRon reframes life's purpose simply and powerfully: you are here to become fully who God created you to be. Not someone else. Not a safer version. Not a smaller version. Becoming you is the work.Notable Quotes“Intentionality for me is surrender — because God's plan is better than mine.” – Ron Lynch“If you want a great story, but you won't take risks, the problem isn't God — it's you.” – Ron Lynch“Growth requires plot twists. If nothing is changing, you're resisting the next scene.” – Ron Lynch“Leave space in your life — that's where the call comes.” – Ron Lynch“Your job isn't to control the story. It's to step into it.” – Mark JewellAction StepsReflect on where you are in your life's story — beginning, midpoint, or transformation.Identify one risk you know you're being called to take — and commit to...

Send us a textIn this episode (339), we examine Hebrews 5: 11–6: 3, where the author pauses his teaching on Christ's high priesthood to deliver a loving rebuke: the believers have become "dull of hearing" from spiritual laziness and comfort, still needing milk when they should be on solid food and teaching others. Exploring what true discipleship means—entering the School of Christ, total surrender, making disciples, and living for Him—we're challenged to leave elementary foundations behind, grow in grace, excel still more, and pursue maturity through discipline, applying God's living Word, and fellowship. Avoid stagnation; embrace the vibrant, purposeful life Christ calls us to!Appreciate this content?

Episode 1929: Laura Stack offers practical strategies for escaping the trap of "good enough" performance at work, reminding us that even the most disciplined routines can slide into stagnation. By addressing internal blocks like perfectionism and procrastination, refreshing your goals, and optimizing your work environment, you can reignite your motivation and climb out of a productivity rut with intention and renewed energy. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://theproductivitypro.com/blog/2013/08/how-to-escape-a-workplace-productivity-rut/ Quotes to ponder: "Let go of the stone, so you can float back to the top of the productivity game." "A change is as good as a rest, and this is one of the situations where it may apply." "Start by redefining your goals, looking for the motivational triggers that set you on your path toward success in the first place."

The United States, on 3 January, executed an unprecedented international intervention by conducting a military operation in Venezuela, which resulted in the removal of President Nicolás Maduro. Subsequently, he was extradited to the United States to face federal criminal charges, including allegations of drug trafficking. In the ensuing chaos, Delcy Rodríguez was appointed as interim president, as the nation grappled with deep political uncertainty and persistent economic challenges. Diplomatic relations with the United States have undergone a significant transformation, with Washington indicating its intention to indefinitely oversee Venezuelan oil sales, including the management of revenue allocation to benefit the populace.

On this week's episode, I'm pleased to be joined by W. David Marx, author of the new book Blank Space: A Cultural History of the Twenty-First Century. Alongside Marx's Status and Culture, this book is one of the key texts to understanding how and why the culture has shifted so radically so quickly: the combination of “poptimism” (we discuss what, precisely, this is early on) and cultural omnivorism (the merging of all genres and all forms into a sort of equally viable mass entertainment) and the internet's flattening of culture have led to a stagnant culture and a revanchist counter-counterculture eager to exact revenge and facing no real opposition in that effort. If you enjoyed our conversation, or simply want to understand how we wound up in the world we wake up to every morning, I strongly recommend picking up Marx's book. And if anything was unclear from our chat, drop me a line in the comments and hopefully I can help clear things up!

STAGNATION UNDER SURVEILLANCE Colleague Anne Stevenson-Yang, Wild Ride. The severe lockdowns of the COVID-19 pandemic shattered consumer confidence, leaving citizens insecure and unwilling to spend, which stalled economic recovery. Local governments, cut off from credit and burdened by debt, struggle to provide basic services. Faced with economic stagnation, Xi Jinping has rejected market liberalization in favor of increased surveillance and control, prioritizing regime security over resolving the structural debt crisis or restoring the dynamism of previous decades.

After rapid increases during the pandemic, tech salaries barely rose in 2024 — often not keeping up with inflation — with annual increases around ~1% in some surveys. This means real purchasing power for many tech workers has actually fallen.Massive layoffs — across big tech and smaller firms — have put more skilled workers into a tighter job market, weakening their bargaining power and slowing wage growth. Recruiters note that tech hiring overall is weaker than during the peak pandemic years, so while layoffs taper in some segments, job openings remain below early-2020 levels and wage growth hasn't rebounded fully

Harnessing the Hypomanic Advantage: Leadership Insights from Todd HagopianIn this episode, host Josh Elledge speaks with Todd Hagopian, Executive Director of the Stagnation Intelligence Agency and author of The Unfair Advantage: Weaponizing the Hypomanic Toolbox. Todd shares his remarkable journey—from spending 15 years undiagnosed with bipolar disorder to engineering a systematic way to harness the productive power of hypomania without the chaos. This conversation explores how neurodiverse traits can be transformed into high-performance leadership tools, offering powerful strategies for productivity, innovation, prioritization, and sustainable success.How Neurodiverse Leadership Becomes a Strategic SuperpowerTodd Hagopian explains how the high energy, creativity, and intensity associated with hypomania can be intentionally structured into repeatable systems. Instead of treating hypomanic tendencies as weaknesses, he shows how leaders can channel them into strengths through tools such as grandiose goal-setting, which pushes individuals and teams to stretch beyond conventional limits. He emphasizes that ambition—when properly focused—creates momentum, inspires others, and unlocks levels of performance that incremental planning simply cannot achieve.Another major insight Todd shares is the 80/20 Matrix, a ruthless prioritization method that identifies the 4% of activities generating 64% of results. By doubling down on the most profitable customer-product combinations and eliminating or outsourcing low-value work, leaders remove complexity—the biggest enemy of profitability. This same philosophy underpins the Carolyn Method, where results are amplified not through more activity, but through sharper focus on the vital few actions that truly move the needle.Todd also discusses orthodoxy smashing, the practice of systematically challenging industry assumptions to uncover breakthrough opportunities. Paired with essential personal practices such as sleep discipline, medication management (when relevant), and eliminating alcohol, Todd shows that sustainable leadership requires both innovation and self-care. His message is clear: anyone—neurodiverse or not—can apply these systems to multiply productivity, improve decision-making, and build resilient success.About Todd HagopianTodd Hagopian is the Executive Director of the Stagnation Intelligence Agency, a leadership strategist, and the author of The Unfair Advantage: Weaponizing the Hypomanic Toolbox.

Lebanon's Demographic Decline and Political Stagnation: Colleague Hussain Abdul-Hussain reports that Pope Leo's visit highlighted Lebanon's diminishing Christian population, now estimated at perhaps one-quarter, with the government remaining weak and reluctant to disarm Hezbollah, fearing foreign deals that sacrifice national interests; while civil war is unlikely, the country remains dominated by an Iranian-backed militia. 1950 BEIRUT
