Netanyahu’s Political Dead End Could Be the preview for the Next War with Iran One critical point that deserves far more attention is Netanyahu’s political predicament. He has no viable governing coalition, yet there is little reason to believe he has any intention of voluntarily giving up the prime minister’s office. This creates a potentially dangerous situation. With no clear political path to remaining in power, Netanyahu may see another confrontation with Iran as an opportunity to fundamentally change the political equation. A national security emergency could put enormous pressure on his political rivals to join a national unity government under his leadership. This is a very plausible scenario and one that should not be underestimated. The concern is not simply that Netanyahu might exploit another war for political future. It is that his inability to form a government, combined with his determination to remain prime minister, could create a powerful incentive to initiate or escalate a confrontation with Iran.. Any assessment of the likelihood of another war with Iran must take into account not only the military and strategic calculations, but also Netanyahu’s political survival. #IranWar‌ #iran

What genuinely astonishes me to the depths of my soul is the audacity and cynicism with which this blatant, undisguised corrupt collusion with the Kremlin is dressed up as an effort to “improve relations with Russia” and “end the war,” as if nobody can see or understand what is happening. nytimes.com/2026/10/27/us/po…

Heartfelt Tributes To Walter Koenig Coming In From Across Star Trek And Beyond bit.ly/wk-tributes

גדי אייזנקוט, בשיתוף פעולה הדוק עם בנט, ליברמן ויאיר גולן, חייב לנהוג באסרטיביות מוחלטת, לא לראות בעיניים, בדיוק כפי שנתניהו היה נוהג, להקים ממשלה בכל מחיר. אם זו תהיה ממשלת מיעוט, אז להתחיל בממשלת מיעוט ולפעול להרחבתה בהמשך. להדיח בישיבת הכנסת הראשונה את אמיר אוחנה מתפקיד יו״ר הכנסת, לחוקק חוק הקמת ועדת חקירה ממלכתית לטבח השבעה באוקטובר ובמקביל כאמור להקים ממשלה ולהיפרד מנתניהו כראש ממשלה. בכל מחיר. אסור לו להשתאות. אם גדי אייזנקוט יגמגם הוא יגמור כמו בני גנץ

I am deeply saddened to learn of Walter Koenig’s passing. Although we did not know each other well away from the set, we shared the later seasons of the original Star Trek series and the six films that followed. What I observed, and what so many fans have expressed over the years, was a man who genuinely loved the Star Trek community. At conventions, Walter was rarely content to remain behind a signing table. He preferred to be among the people who had kept Star Trek alive for so many decades. That kind of genuine connection is rare, and it will be remembered by everyone who came into contact with him. My condolences to his family, his friends, and the countless fans whose lives he touched.

Finally, members of Congress seem to grasp that the President of the USA needs to be treated like a Russian agent, who is trying to use the power of the US government to protect Vladimir Putin as part of a criminal enterprise. That’s where we are.

Here is shown how many MD's Canada produces each year. I won't get into the gender differences but there is a story there as well. You can see the ~2000 Barer-Stoddart anomaly and a valiant attempt to rectify it since then. But again since 2019 or so we've stalled. /3

This is horrific. Residents of occupied Oleshky who wish to escape to free Ukraine will not be allowed to cross the Dnipro River – which is less than 4 km away. They will be taken to occupied Crimea or to the Russian Federation, where they will be subjected to coercive measures.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 EVEN RUSSIAN MILITARY SOURCES ACKNOWLEDGE UKRAINIAN COUNTERATTACKS IN ZAPORIZHZHIA Russia's own military commentators are acknowledging that Ukrainian forces continue to counterattack along the southern front, complicating Moscow's attempts to advance toward Orikhiv. In its latest assessment of the Zaporizhzhia direction, the pro-Russian military analysis group Rybar describes ongoing Ukrainian operations around Mala Tokmachka, where small assault groups are attempting to establish positions amid the ruins of the settlement. Further east, Ukrainian forces are also attempting to consolidate positions near Kopani and Hirke, with drone operators targeting Russian positions while infantry groups probe for opportunities to penetrate their defensive lines. The significance is not that Ukraine has suddenly achieved a major breakthrough. No such territorial gains have been independently confirmed. Rather, Russian forces are still having to contend with Ukrainian counterattacks in an area where Moscow has been attempting to expand its control and threaten Ukrainian defensive positions around Orikhiv. Rybar's own assessment illustrates how difficult it remains for Russian troops to establish secure control over devastated settlements, particularly when Ukrainian drones can monitor movements and disrupt attempts to consolidate positions. Ukraine is not simply absorbing Russian attacks in the south. Its forces are still contesting the initiative, even in sectors where Moscow has concentrated considerable offensive pressure.

Every Ukraine backer who argued Trump would not be so bad, Trump could be persuaded to back Ukraine, that Trump was getting irritated with Putin, that the US just wanted peace--should have the basic decency to admit that they made it all up. Trump was with Putin, always.
