Week in Review: Germany’s Far-Right Riots, Iran Vs. Syria, SCO Military Drills, Balkans Border Redraw?, and Much More

Show Notes

  • A murder in East Germany by a migrant has sparked major riots by anti-immigrant and neo-Nazi Germans; these riots represent an escalation in the rise of the far-right at the heart of Europe.
  • Pro-Iran militias have been observed fighting Syrian Army forces loyal to Bashar Assad, a stunning sign of just how much the once-strong alliance between Iran and Syria has fractured, just as Bible prophecy said it would.
  • India and Pakistan joined the sco, an Asian security alliance, this past year, and this week they finished anti-terrorism military drills with the organization hosted by Russia.
  • We’ll also talk about leaders in Serbia and Kosovo considering the explosive idea of redrawing their border, why Iran is moving some of its missiles into Iraq, China developing an aircraft carrier battle group, Chinese tech companies being accused of posing a national security threat to other nations, and accusations against tech giant Google for stifling conservative news.
