Top Chicago Official Resigns as Mayor’s Office Accused of ‘Whitewashing’ Antisemitism Report
Nancy Andrade, who had served as Chicago’s human relations commissioner since 2021, stepped down this week after months of disagreement between the city’s Human Relations Commission and the administration of Mayor Brandon Johnson over how to frame findings related to a sharp rise in antisemitic incidents. Andrade accused the administration of purposefully watering down the report to minimize the soaring antisemitism within the city. “The mayor’s office sent back an edit of it that completely whitewashed it … They had just crossed off anything that had to do with anti-Jewish hate crime and just made it an all-lives-matter

The ‘failed war’ narrative on Iran is political spin 
President Donald Trump’s announcement of a five-day delay before making good on his threats to bomb Iran’s power plants was greeted with relief by those who have been hoping that he would end the U.S.-Israeli military campaign as soon as possible. It remains to be seen whether the talks reportedly taking place with the Islamist regime to end their nuclear program are achieving any real progress. This may be evidence that those within the White House pushing for a diplomatic deal with Iran are winning the day over concerns about the economy and increasing gas prices. Or, as with previous decisions by the president prior to the 12-day war in June 2025 and the start of the current conflict, it may be that he is giving them one more chance to bend to America’s will to avoid heavier blows yet to come on what’s left of the country’s infrastructure and military capabilities.

By God’s Sovereign Design, Israel Will Ultimately Lead The World In Worship Of Him
It is common to cross paths with Christians who don’t believe the Jewish people today are God’s Chosen People.

Alarming West Texas Oil Theft Emerges As National Security Threat 
Criminals are exploiting weak points across the West Texas oil production region, which accounts for 15% of the world’s energy resources. This emerging wave of oil theft is burning a multi-billion-dollar hole in the budgets of oil and gas operators across the Permian Basin and is becoming a national security threat. Today’s Permian Basin thieves might instead connect vacuum trucks to storage tanks in broad daylight and siphon it out, sometimes covering their license plates or swapping vehicles to evade law enforcement, authorities say. Now, regulators and the FBI have taken notice because these oil thefts are becoming a growing economic security and critical infrastructure threat.

Finish the Job: Leaving Iran’s Regime in Place Guarantees Endless Regional Instability
If left intact, the regime will almost certainly, at some point – after the Trump administration’s term ends – accelerate its most ambitious and dangerous projects, most notably its pursuit of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles to deliver them.

The Iran War Just Reopened the Caspian Energy Map 
For decades, the idea of transporting natural gas from Turkmenistan across the Caspian Sea to Azerbaijan and onward to Europe has been held hostage to geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty.

In doing so, Turkmenistan, home to some of the world’s largest gas reserves, could emerge as a key energy supplier to offset war-constrained Middle Eastern flows.

Gen Z is supposed to be done with religion. Someone forgot to tell them.
Steve Little was teaching a leadership class to his own employees last month when he asked, almost as an aside, how many of them were actively practicing religion. He was expecting a smattering of hands. Instead, 80 percent of the room – employees aged 26 to 38 – raised their hands. “I was shocked. I genuinely demonstrated that on my face.” The following week, Little received an industry report from the Associated Builders and Contractors showing that churches are now the second fastest-growing construction sector in America – double-digit growth in a market where hospitals, schools, and municipalities are all contracting.

The wars Israel is already preparing for – and why they look nothing like today’s
In the fog of war with Iran, whose long-term consequences may take years to fully understand, American and Israeli strategists are already preparing for their next conflicts. They recognize a central truth: Tomorrow’s wars will not resemble today’s. If the Iranian regime falls, Israel’s primary adversary could change. Much depends on whether the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps tightens its grip or whether genuine political transformation empowers the Iranian people.

Iranians fear crackdown will intensify: ‘If there is a deal, we will have to leave’
The French news agency AFP on Friday published testimonies from several residents describing daily life in the country. One theme, according to the accounts, continues to weigh heavily on Iranians: repression and intrusion into personal life by authorities. Shayan, a resident of Tehran, told AFP there is no hunger in Iran and that goods remain available. “Cafes are open, we go out, there is fuel, water and electricity. But there is a sense of helplessness among all of us,” he said. “We meet with family and friends, play cards and drink. Shops and restaurants are open until 9 p.m. But the city feels empty, most people have left.” Ansiya, a dentist in the Iranian capital, said she is losing hope every day. “We are trapped between three mad powers and the war is frightening. I know I will never be the same person again. The war has torn a part of me away, and it will not return,” she said.

Islamification of the West: Muslims are simply doing what Muslims have always done 
Last year, Raymond Ibrahim explained what ribat is, historically and today. Because the Koran instructs Muslims to form ribats to carry out jihad against infidels, when Muslims enter a Western nation, they form ribats. What has changed is that our politicians are inviting them into our nations and supporting them while they do it.
