Ghost opens episode 109 with the Iran peace deal moving toward signature: a draft plan is on the table, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are proposing a $300 billion investment fund for Iranian reconstruction, and Ghost walks through why this is the Venezuela model playing out in real time, not a Zionist puppet operation. Jim Rickards calls it a game of chicken and says the US blinks first. Ghost dismantles the Washington Examiner's "Abraham Architecture" op-ed as neocon regime change dressed up in platitudes, and reiterates Saudi Arabia's unbreakable red line on Palestine. Ben Gavir declares Israel will not allow any deal, while the US quietly prepares to pull all military aircraft from Ben Gurion within 72 hours of a signing. The episode then pivots to a bombshell: an Israeli state TV documentary exposes ritualistic child sexual abuse in the Gush Etzion West Bank settlement, with survivor testimony describing Knesset members as participants. Ghost connects it to the UN's blacklisting of Israel for prison sexual violence and an Israeli-born US attorney dropping gun charges against an Israeli national running an illegal biolab in Las Vegas. The episode closes with the DRC Ebola outbreak accelerating and Trump's Armenia rail deal revealing the emerging global trade corridor from Central Asia to North America.

Persuasion seems conspicuously absent from our politics.  Not shouting, denouncing, or trying to convince the "other side" that they're wrong, evil, or both.  But the good faithed attempt to reach the hearts, minds, and emotions of others and persuade them to our point of view.  Why?  Why is persuasion so hard?  And is it even possible to persuade in an era of political polarization?   Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis welcomes fellow "Josh"—Josh Bandoch—on the show to discuss his latest book, How to Get What You Want: Mastering the Art and Science of Persuasion, and to explore how persuasion can engage with how the human brain is actually wired.   About Josh Bandoch Bio from Illinois Policy   Josh Bandoch is the Head of Policy at the Illinois Policy Institute.   His research focuses on empowering people to rise out of poverty, increasing social mobility, improving housing affordability, and removing barriers to opportunity (e.g. burdensome regulations).

Michael Banks  dimitió luego de una una investigación publicada por The Washington Examiner.

Ce reprezintă ”capcana lui Tucidide”? Presa internațională  detaliază înțelesurile acestui concept după vizita președintelui Donald Trump la Beijing. Liderul chinez Xi Jinping l-a invocat pe istoricul grec atunci când a atenționat că escaladarea tensiunilor dintre cele două superputeri ar putea duce la un conflict deschis. După cum explică The Wall Street Journal, istoricul grec din secolul al V-lea î.Hr. arăta că „ascensiunea Atenei a inspirat o asemenea frică în Sparta încât războiul dintre cele două orașe a devenit inevitabil” Cu alte cuvinte, o putere dominantă riscă să intre în război cu o putere emergentă de a cărei ascensiune se teme. Acesta este un risc pe care Xi Jinping intenționează să-l evite. Washington Examiner notează că, ”în timpul întâlnirii, Trump și-a exprimat optimismul pentru viitoarele relații dintre China și SUA, prezicând că relația dintre cele două țări va fi „mai bună ca niciodată”. Xi a avut un ton diferit, avertizând că lumea se află la o „răscruce”, cu tensiunile geopolitice actuale. El a subliniat că SUA și China ar trebui să fie aliați, mai degrabă decât adversari. De asemenea, a făcut referire la Capcana lui Tucidide, o teorie a relațiilor internaționale care descrie ascensiunea unei noi puteri ce rivalizează cu un hegemon existent în geopolitică”. Ziarul grec Proto Thema vorbește despre interpretarea modernă a pildei istoricului antic. ”Termenul a fost popularizat de politologul american Graham T. Allison, profesor la Universitatea Harvard, care a căutat să explice dinamica ce se dezvoltă atunci când o putere în ascensiune amenință să înlocuiască o superputere dominantă. Allison a folosit conflictul Atena-Sparta ca exemplu istoric pentru a argumenta că atunci când o nouă putere crește rapid și contestă supremația uneia deja dominante, șansele de război cresc dramatic. În cartea sa din 2017, Destined for War (Destinat războiului), el a susținut că Statele Unite și China se află pe calea unei confruntări periculoase, deși nu considera conflictul inevitabil”. Le Monde consideră că Donald Trump a venit deja slăbit în capitala Chinei.   ”Fanfaronul de la Mar-a-Lago voia să-l impresioneze pe împăratul Chinei. Donald Trump și Xi Jinping urmau să se întâlnească la Beijing la sfârșitul lunii martie. Până atunci, „Furia Epică”, împotriva Iranului, declanșată la sfârșitul lunii februarie, trebuia să fi fost dusă la bun sfârșit de președinte american. După ce a preluat controlul asupra afacerilor venezuelene, Trump era convins că poate aduce rapid Republica Islamică la realitate. Acest lucru era important, Caracas și apoi Teheran fiind două regimuri prietenoase cu Partidul Comunist Chinez. Trump ar fi putut angaja un dialog cu Xi dintr-o poziție de forță. Dar nu a fost să fie”.     ”Se pare că Trump și Xi au discutat despre problema Taiwanului - așadar, ce părere au taiwanezii despre asta?” – întreabă BBC. ”Unii taiwanezi sunt îngrijorați că sunt „în meniu” și că SUA și-ar putea schimba poziția față de Taiwan, în ciuda asigurărilor repetate din partea Washingtonului”.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 81: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (3:00) SPECIAL COMMENT: "Donald Trump Is Losing His Mind." It's the headline on a column in perhaps the most prominent MAGA magazine headline. It's not me saying it this time. Not Jimmy Kimmel. Not George Conway. Not a psychiatrist. The Washington Examiner: “Donald Trump Is Losing His Mind.” Why? Just because he’s also losing IRAN? Just because he’s COMPARING Iran to Vietnam (which he dodged)? Just because he threatened to go General Sherman on Teheran? Just because he's just announced you are no longer ALLOWED to CRITICIZE him ABOUT Iran? “Donald Trump Is Losing His Mind” writes The Washington Examiner - guess that makes it unanimous (and there is now polling on this!) ALSO: House Democrats want Kash Patel to take an alcoholism screening test. His choices amount to: a) ARE you an alcoholic? b) Are you so FULL of alcohol you’re at risk of bursting into flames, or c) are you J. Edgar Boozer. AND about the White House Correspondents Dinner Saturday. The Correspondents Association is obeying in advance to Trump, calling him an "honoree" and welcoming his rats like Brendan Carr and Stephen Miller. If you’re attending this dinner, and you are not planning to storm out or otherwise using this rare opportunity to protest Trump’s presence, you’re not only a traitor to JOURNALISM, you’re a traitor to America. B-Block (36:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Trump's "National Garden Of Heroes" with 250 statues of everybody from Elvis to Whittaker Chambers is dumb enough. What happens when they forget to order the statues? Interior Secretary Burgum wants Theodore Roosevelt in the pro football Hall of Fame even though there wasn't pro football while T.R. was alive. And new Congressman Clay Fuller says he was only joking when he said Georgia was named after George Washington. C-Block (45:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Talking about dinner in DC Saturday (The White House Correspondents) led me to mention my disastrous dates last century with Laura Ingraham on social media and there was considerable disbelief so it's time to tell that story.
