Show Notes
• After a terrorist attack from the Temple Mount, Israel set up security measures—then, in the face of Arab pressure, took them down. But tensions remain as the Arabs continue to accuse Israel of trying to take control of their holy sites.
• Russia and China keep ramping up their defense cooperation, as they launched their first-ever military drills in the Baltic Sea.
• The push for transgender rights continues its march forward, as two American states demand that educators use people’s preferred gender pronoun, and Britain makes it far easier to legally change the sex on your birth certificate.
• We’ll also talk about dangerous and unpredictable North Korea being helped by none other than Russia—a sophisticated missile being fired into Saudi Arabia from Yemen’s Houthis—and speculation about a political comeback for Karl Theodor zu Guttenberg.
