Show Notes

  • America is phasing its presence out of Iraq, and Iran is demanding that it get out completely by the end of this month. President Joe Biden seems willing to comply so as not to imperil Iran nuclear talks. This is driving Arab states in the region to seek relationships to fill America’s absence.
  • President Biden has ruled out sending troops to defend Ukraine from a potential invasion from Russia, further underlining the fact that Europe must deal with Russia on its own.
  • Austrian strongman Sebastian Kurz abruptly left politics the same week that German Chancellor Angela Merkel stepped down, signaling a trend toward weakening leadership within Europe.
  • We also talk about Russia and India dramatically increasing their military cooperation, China moving into Africa’s West coast, some politically significant moves by Pope Francis, and pro-abortionists in America reacting to the challenge to the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court ruling.
