Show Notes

  • This week the Russian Orthodox Church severed ties with a major patriarch of the Eastern Orthodox Church, possibly sparking the church’s biggest conflict since the split with Catholicism in A.D. 1054 and helping to redefine Russian-European geopolitics.
  • Satellite imagery was published this week of Russia’s military buildup in Kaliningrad, causing further anxiety within European nations.
  • Palestinian attacks on Israel from Gaza have been escalating for months, and the Jewish state is contemplating an increasingly aggressive set of options in response.
  • As America’s midterm elections approach, a volatile situation is developing with a massive convoy of migrants coming toward the U.S. from Central America.
  • We’ll also talk about why Iran has been stepping up its threats to Israel, China’s impressive new stealth bomber, complications in Britain’s exit from the European Union, and violent division within America playing out on the streets of Portland.
