🇷🇺🇸🇾 Moscow is still shielding Bashar al-Assad with permanent political asylum on 'humanitarian grounds'… Humanitarian grounds…is that a f*king joke?! Giving humanitarian shelter to a dictator who allegedly gassed his own citizens and slaughtered hundreds of thousands of civilians is the ultimate kick in the teeth to the Syrian people. Just weeks ago, a Syrian court sentenced him to death in absentia for war crimes and crimes against humanity, yet Moscow continues to protect his luxury retirement package instead… So messed up!

🇾🇪 🇸🇦 🇺🇸 Daily news recap: The Houthis now claim their missiles can reach the US blockade line in the Gulf of Oman... and see as far as Diego Garcia. They also claim they shot down a Saudi Typhoon fighter jet, and a voice close to the Houthis says their generals have already planned an invasion of three southern Saudi provinces if Riyadh drags outside powers into the war. Meanwhile Iran's missile threat has pushed the US fleet back toward Yemen: "It looks like the Iranians are establishing a trap, a kill box for our fleet." There's no off ramp right now, and Washington needs to build one before a warship pays the price. @WeTheBrandon

🇺🇸🇷🇺 Washington is now considering letting the shadow fleet back in to bring down oil shipping costs Days after lifting sanctions on Russian diesel, the administration is weighing a license system that would let companies apply to Treasury to move "legal oil" on tankers that were sanctioned for hauling Russian, Iranian and Venezuelan crude. Energy Secretary Chris Wright floated it in a video to the World Petroleum Congress in Riyadh, and a US official says the goal is to get more crude and refined products out of the Gulf. The reason is a number: supertanker rates hit $805,000 a day last week, which has priced American crude out of Asia. The problem is another number. Energy Aspects says most of those tankers are old, badly maintained, and already trading anyway, so the move adds maybe a few Hormuz shuttle runs and won't move freight rates, and EU and UK rules still bind the insurers. Meanwhile the US Navy has spent three months blowing up shadow fleet tankers in its Iran blockade. The administration is sanctioning the fleet with one hand and licensing it with the other, which tells you how badly Nov. 3 needs a lower pump price. Source: Reuters / Writer: Daniel

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Hebron, Jerusalem, Djerba... the story of Jews and Muslims living side by side gets put on trial massacre by massacre Joseph Cohen’s list starts in 1834 and runs through the Nabi Musa riots in Jerusalem in 1920 and the Hebron massacre of 1929, with the jizya, the tax Jews and Christians paid under Islamic rule, woven through it. Then he brings it home to Sami Hamdi’s own Tunisia, where the synagogue on Djerba has been attacked THREE times: “This is your coexistence. My blood is your coexistence.” Any one state plan asks Israelis and Palestinians to share one roof, and nearly a century of massacres on both sides is the foundation it would have to stand on. @SALHACHIMI @israel_advocacy

🇺🇸🇷🇺 The Pentagon is launching a FOUR-STAR AUTONOMOUS WARFARE COMMAND because Russia already made cheap drones the main weapon in Ukraine It is supposed to be running by October 1 of 2027 if Congress signs off. The Army just renamed its Futures and Concepts Command to Futures and Autonomous Systems Command as the service piece of it. The idea is to stop treating cheap unmanned systems as side projects and start fielding them the way tanks and ships used to be fielded. Moscow keeps rewriting its drone software in the middle of the war, so Washington is building a 4-star command to catch up. The gap is about who fields them first and keeps changing them while the fighting is still going. Source: Stars and Stripes / Writer: Lucas

🇵🇸🇮🇱 Pure horror as a WOMAN BURNS TO DEATH in an ISRAELI STRIKE The strike hit a residential apartment in Gaza, unleashing a massive blaze that trapped a family inside. 33-year-old mother Reem Asaad Awad BURNED ALIVE in front of her daughter.

🇺🇸 HERO officer SAVES A BOY with autism from drowning in a pond Officer Carston Addison arrived at a call about a child in the water. He didn't think twice, dropping his gear and diving straight in! The 12-year-old boy was screaming that he didn’t want to go to jail but the officer calmed him before taking him to a doctor. The chief just gave him a life-saving award. Addison has been on the force for less than a year, but he's already a hero! Source: CBS News / Writer: Lucas

🇪🇬🇮🇱 Egypt’s president REJECTED the idea that Cairo is holding back from war because it FEARS losing SINAI El-Sisi said he heard an Israeli official claim Egypt would not fight over the peninsula. He answered that nobody asked Egypt if it wants a war, that the country has no agenda against anyone, and that the land is already recovered. He made the comments at a ceremony for the 1973 war. The remarks came from Finance Minister Smotrich (what a surprise!), who said an Egyptian attack would cost them Sinai. Writer: Lucas t.co/ydyVRC7l4m

🇺🇸 Trump on his relationship with Putin: "I have to make deals with people, so I don’t go around calling them names. I’m a deal maker. I’ve always been a very good deal maker.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 With the two state solution called “dead and buried,” one state under Israel gets pitched as the only way left. What would it take for Palestinians to drop the dream of their own flag? Joseph Cohen goes straight at Sami Hamdi with the history... 1937, 1947, then Ehud Olmert’s offer that came with East Jerusalem as a capital, all turned down. His case for what comes next rests on Israel’s 2 million Arab citizens, including Arab judges who’ve sent Jewish leaders to prison: “I want them to have equality with me. And the only solution for that now is one state, Israel.” Equal rights inside Israel is a real offer, but it asks a people to give up the one thing they’ve fought for since 1948... would ANY Palestinian leader sign that? @SALHACHIMI @israel_advocacy

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The U.S. military BLEW UP an Iranian-linked boat in the Gulf of Oman after catching it SPYING on American warships. CENTCOM says the dhow was being used to track U.S. Navy ships and help target them, so American forces decided to take it out on October 6. The crew was evacuated before the boat was destroyed, and efforts to send them home are still underway. Meanwhile, the U.S. military accuses Iran's Revolutionary Guard of targeting thousands of civilian sailors over the past seven months. Writer: Sol t.co/udD0qTexgI

🇬🇷 THANK GOODNESS! A woman who went overboard from a Royal Caribbean cruise off Greece SURVIVED after 20 hours in the water. The 44-year-old was spotted floating in a lifebuoy southwest of Zakynthos and pulled from the water by the Greek coast guard. She told rescuers she jumped because she wanted to get off the ship. Authorities took her to hospital, where a prosecutor ordered a psychiatric evaluation. But after 20 hours in open dangerous waters its astounding that she came out of it alive! Don't tell me that was her plan to avoid staying on the ship 😳 Writer: Lucas t.co/lNCXQ8PBWd

🇮🇱🇵🇸 The Gaza death toll debate hits its breaking point when one side calls it among the lowest civilian ratios of any modern war Joseph Cohen comes armed with the receipts... the leaflets dropped over Gaza, millions of warning texts, the evacuation of Rafah, then verses from the Torah AND the Quran on the land promised to the children of Israel. Sami Hamdi sat through every number and answered with one line: “These were kids that were slaughtered. Joseph, you need to have a heart.” @SALHACHIMI @israel_advocacy

🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran reportedly ordered a new campaign on shipping to keep oil high through the US midterms... and the Gulf is bracing for the next round of war Two senior Iranian officials told Reuters the shift was approved at the top about ten days ago, with more frequent strikes and plans to push into the Gulf of Oman, while a US official says IRGC spotters on small boats are filling in for destroyed radars. Qatar's emir told citizens to prepare for the worst, Israel warned Hezbollah to stay out of an Iran fight, and Trump said what comes next for Tehran is worth waiting for: "Wait till you see what we do to Iran." The Houthis are reportedly building 2,000 km missiles with Chinese parts, Aramco's headquarters reportedly burned across several floors, and Saudi Arabia's $9 billion in new Patriots still can't cover a country three times the size of Texas. Every pressure point is red at once, and the midterms are 20 days out. @WeTheBrandon

🇰🇵 NORTH KOREA FIRES TWO TYPES OF MISSILES FROM A SUBMARINE 👀 State media says the strategic cruise missiles were tested off the east coast on Wednesday. “Strategic” is the word to watch. It suggests that they could eventually carry nuclear warheads. But North Korea isn’t believed to have a modern missile submarine in full operation yet, and Pyongyang gave NO details on the missiles or the launch platform either. Sub-launched cruise missiles can fly beneath radar systems. Once Kim Jong Un solves the submarine problem, a nuclear warhead can sit off any coastline with ZERO warning.

🇮🇱🇺🇸 Some hardliners are getting TOO DRUNK on power. An Israeli think tank says the country should DITCH THE U.S. because it’s a DECLINING POWER. The paper, from Tel Aviv University’s INSS, treats American backing as temporary, calls Arab states artificial and fair game for destabilization, and prefers preventive war over peace. It also ranks Jewish identity above democracy. Beyond how controversial the thesis sounds, it’s a hard bet. American military aid has been the backbone of Israel’s edge for decades, and Turkey sits inside NATO with the alliance’s second-largest army. And also, we have to consider the brand new Mecca Alliance added to the equation, which includes Pakistan's nuclear power. Walking away from the patron while neighbors stay inside the system is a strange way to stay a regional power. Source: Institute for National Security Studies / Writer: Lucas

🇺🇸🇷🇺 Russian diesel is now expected to reach American pumps before Election Day Russian fuel could start arriving within TWO WEEKS, after Trump agreed to suspend sanctions and Putin lifted his diesel export ban. American drivers are paying around $6.30 a gallon for diesel, nearly DOUBLE what they paid a year ago, with prices hitting a record $6.53 last month. Trump pushed Zelensky to STOP bombing Russian oil refineries because the attacks were driving up fuel prices. Kyiv has blasted the deal as weak, while estimates suggest Moscow could pocket another $4 BILLION. Meanwhile, Trump's war with Iran has helped send fuel prices through the roof. So now America is looking to PUTIN for relief at the pump, while Russia could walk away with billions to fund its war. You genuinely couldn't make this stuff up. Source: NYP / Writer: Sol

🇺🇸 California has undergone one of the most DRAMATIC demographic transformations in American history. In 1950, 93.7% of California's population was classified as White by the U.S. Census Bureau. Today, just 32.5% identify as non-Hispanic White. And we're talking about CALIFORNIA, America's most populous state, home to Silicon Valley, Hollywood, and an enormous share of the country's cultural and economic influence. The bigger question is what parts of California's cultural heritage will survive another generation of change. Source: @swenstone0 / Writer: Sol

🇷🇺🇷🇴 Russian drones just struck the fuel tanker YARA J near the mouth of Romania's Sulina Canal, setting the vessel on fire. The tanker was reportedly carrying fuel bound for Ukraine and had a Syrian crew aboard. The strike comes days after a series of drone attacks on commercial shipping in the western Black Sea, close to Romania and Bulgaria. On October 13, two commercial vessels were struck near Bulgaria, with 11 sailors reported missing after the cargo ship HS Dignity sank. The circumstances of the YARA J strike, including responsibility and its precise location, have not yet been independently confirmed. Source: Rerum Novarum on Telegram / Writer: Mhedi

🇮🇷🇧🇭 IRAN COULD INVADE BAHRAIN if another war breaks out, and taking over the Gulf kingdom would be relatively EASY. Prof. Foad Izadi argues that Tehran would have to respond much more aggressively to another US-Israeli attack, potentially targeting Gulf states that helped Washington. He singles out Bahrain, claiming its royal family has actively worked against Iran and pointing to the country's historical ties to Tehran. “If the Bahraini royal family is in London instead of Manama, then you don't have to worry about them trying to pass a UN resolution against Iran.” And when asked whether Bahrain would be the primary target of an Iranian ground invasion, his answer was chilling: “Bahrain would be the first choice. It would be much easier.” He even suggested that Iraqi forces could take over Kuwait. @IzadiFoad

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Iran was letting its OWN OIL pass through the Strait of Hormuz alongside Gulf shipments, hoping to give Trump a reason to end the war. Iranian professor Foad Izadi claims Tehran deliberately allowed some oil shipments to continue, including Iranian crude transported on smaller tankers and transferred to larger vessels. He argues Iran was trying to keep oil prices under control and create room for a deal with Washington, but that strategy failed. “Trump was not interested in an agreement.” @IzadiFoad
