Former President Trump is holding a rally in the New York City borough of the Bronx Thursday evening, making a foray into a Democratic Party stronghold.

Although Trump is unlikely to flip the state of New York this November, analysts suggest that the setting provides an opportunity to create excitement among supporters who otherwise might not get to a rally, as well as press attention in the nation’s biggest media market.

U.S. media and politicians have spoken out ad nauseam about the alleged anti-semitism on display at ceasefire protests. Not only do they fail to distinguish between antizionism (which is not antisemitism) and antisemitism, but they refuse to cover the the violence and hate speech perpetuated by Israel supporters AGAINST pro-Palestine protesters. Set to the music of Macklemore song 'Hind Hall.'

Summary

1. Yeshitela argues that the left in the U.S. often opposes black self-determination and economic empowerment, viewing it as a split from the broader working class.

3. Yeshitela highlights the importance of building economic institutions and self-reliance within the black community as a means of liberation and empowerment. He points to the success of the African People’s Socialist Party in transforming communities and providing agency to its members.

Watch live views outside the London High Court as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange faces a hearing that could end with him being sent to the U.S. to face espionage charges, or provide him another chance to appeal his extradition.

US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said on 29 September 2023 that “The Middle East region is quieter today than it has been in two decades.” That all changed on October 7 when Hamas attacked Israel, which unsurprisingly invaded Gaza to destroy Hamas.

After more than six months, it appears to many that Israel is losing its war in Gaza. At the same time, Israel is fighting Hezbollah on its northern border, relations between Jerusalem and Washington are strained, and the International Court of Justice has ruled that a plausible case can be made that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.

Meanwhile, there is great danger of escalation across the region, as the fighting between Israel and Iran makes clear. Indeed, there is a possibility the United States, which is already fighting the Houthis, might end up in a war with Iran, which neither country wants.

What might be the lasting consequences of these conflicts? Who will emerge weaker and who stronger? And what does this crisis mean for U.S. foreign policy in the region, Ukraine and East Asia?
