Europe falls under siege as demonstrators battle police, set fires in cities across continent.

France, Italy, Spain, Albania, Portugal and Belgium were targeted.

The unrest prompted the US Embassy and Consulates in Italy to put the country on high alert, urging Americans to avoid Piazza Duomo in Milan and major commercial streets.

Have European communists and Islamists joined forces; and if so, who is behind them?

Again, MO seems very much like George Floyd!

US ready to strike Iran 'within 96 hours' of Trump's order, Israel pushes for joint attack - report

While Trump has not made a final decision on whether to commit to major military action after the US midterms, officials said any attack that would be conducted would "be a big effort."

Israel drills for surprise attack with massive military exercise as expert invokes 1973 war

Dr. Ehud Eilam said the two-day drills to protect Israel's borders follow an IRGC missile exercise, which could also carry a 'risk of miscalculation'

The Israeli military launched large-scale domestic military exercises on Sunday to counter surprise border infiltrations and ground raids across northern and central Israel, mobilizing multiple divisions and air assets amid rising regional tensions.

The drills, set to continue over 48 hours, came as an Israeli security expert invoked the 1973 Yom Kippur War, when Egypt and Syria used exercises to disguise preparations for a surprise attack, warning that escalating tensions in the region could in fact trigger what he described as a "dangerous miscalculation."

The large-scale maneuvers, the IDF said, involve the Northern Command’s 210th Division, the West Bank Division, and the Central Command’s 98th and 96th divisions, alongside the Israeli Air Force.

Would these military maneuvers to send a message to Tehran or prepare Israeli’s for another tussle with Tehran and all that comes with it?

How might Tehran be preparing for a resumption of military attacks from the United States and Israel?

Earlier today, IDF downs large drones smuggling illicit goods into Gaza!

The IDF downed a smuggling drone heading from Israeli territory into Gaza early on Monday morning, according to Army Radio.

The drone, which was shot down by an electronic jamming weapon, has been identified as a FlyCart model, capable of carrying a large load.

Paratrooper Brigade forces completed two anti-terror operations in the West Bank, the IDF announced on Monday.

During an operation in the village of Qabatia, five terrorists were arrested, including three affiliated with Hamas and two with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

In another operation in the Binyamin region, fighters from Battalion 202 raided more than 50 targets, conducted searches to locate weapons, and interrogated suspects affiliated with Hamas.

Are these actions to prevent Hamas and other Iranian proxies for launching any possible (serious) retaliatory attack on Israel following a resumption of military action?

Top officials from Mecca pact countries to meet Iranian officials in Tehran, two sources say. Why now and what do the Saudis’ hope to gain?

How was the response on the part of Giorgia Meloni different from that of Macron in France?

Have citizens merely lost patience with their governments or are other forces seizing upon a moment to launch these attacks at this moment? If so; what weakness is providing them with this opportunity?

Do you fear the unrest will spread to other EU member nations? If so; where?

Although it is not tourist season, most of the countries, currently embroiled in unrest, rely on tourism. Will this rioting damage tourism now and in the future?

How is the Italian media reporting in the upcoming U.S. elections?

The White House announced Friday that the 56-year-old first lady had brokered a ceasefire limited to the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky, set to begin Oct. 29 to allow humanitarian aid to enter and pave the way for evacuations.

Media is claiming that the First Lady somehow stole credit from Pope Leo?

Dr. Graceffo, what is the latest from Ukraine?

Brazil Election:

Incumbent leftist President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva defeated right-wing challenger Sen. Flávio Bolsonaro in Sunday's presidential second-round runoff, according to Brazil’s electoral court and The Associated Press. The deeply polarized nation returned to the polls for a second round of voting on Sunday.

With 100% of the vote counted, Lula won 51.8% of the vote, defeating Bolsonaro by nearly 4.4 million votes.

Despite trailing by nearly 4.4 million votes, Bolsonaro has refused to concede and has called for the election results to be annulled.

Why is Bolsonaro claiming the election was rigged?

Does this election slow-down the conservative wave in South and Central America?

European media was portraying these “protests” as pensioners demanding increases to keep pace with rising costs. Is that a bunch of malarky?

Peter, you shared an analysis with General Holt and myself last night of where Europe currently stands with regard to “guerilla actions.” Over the past, six-months, Europe appears primed for a large-scale guerilla attack. Will this attack be aimed at taking down governments of these countries of the EU itself?

General, the latest episode of Dangerous Intellectuals discusses: “EXTRACTION LOGIC.”

California spent $600M+ on 130,000 pages of environmental studies on their bullet train, but hasn’t laid a single track!

In 2008, California voters approved funding for a high-speed rail line between San Francisco and Los Angeles. A group of contractors donated tens of thousands of dollars to support the ballot measure. A state program manager projected that the initiative would create more than 100,000 construction jobs.

Eighteen years and more than $15 billion later, not a single mile of high-speed track has been laid. The state hasn’t even laid track on the rump Merced-Bakersfield line that it wants to open in the 2030s. In a recently resurfaced video from his time as lieutenant governor, Gavin Newsom said the full project was unlikely to “materialize in our lifetime.”

Some of the bullet-train reports include ridiculous measures. One proposed that biologists count bumblebees, one by one. Another outlined when a contractor was allowed to break down woodrat stick huts. Still others contemplated using dogs to sniff for lizard scat or spending $119.4 million on an overhead tube partly to limit the train’s “acoustic impacts on waterfowl and shorebirds.”

Was this a scam from the get-go? Was it a money laundering scheme to steal taxpayer dollars and funnel them to environmental law-firms?

An artificial intelligence watchdog is calling for stronger safeguards after reports that major U.S. banks detected unauthorized AI agents accessing customer accounts, warning the technology poses a growing threat to Americans' financial security.

Russ Walker, executive director of Humans First, criticized Big Tech companies for promoting AI-powered banking tools despite concerns about their ability to control autonomous systems.

"Big Tech claims their systems are reliable enough to integrate into banking, to have control or access to people’s hard-earned dollars. This report shows, once again, that the AI companies can’t even control their own technology," Walker said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

"The unauthorized actions of these AI bots pose a clear and present threat to our banking system and are an attack on basic financial security," he added.

The remarks follow an Axios report that major banks have detected unauthorized third-party AI agents accessing customer accounts, with some attempting actions apparently independent of users' instructions.

Humans First has proposed an America First AI policy framework calling for independent testing of high-risk systems, mandatory reporting of major AI incidents and greater accountability for technology developers.

"It is past time for our elected leaders to act. We need common-sense guardrails that will protect the American people and the institutions we rely on," Walker said. (Fox News)

Is AI capable of figuring out our passwords and if so; should we be using other technologies, such as retina scans to prevent access to our banking and financial accounts?

President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance on Tuesday announced a $25 million program to encourage the public to blow the whistle on suspected fraud in the U.S. government as they ramp up efforts to end the abuse of federal programs and dollars.

The White House said that under the Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program, anyone who submits a tip that leads to a fraud conviction or a significant federal enforcement action is eligible to receive up to $30,000, and that the Justice Department will administer the program.

During the announcement, Trump said payments will amount to a 1% commission on the amount of fraud the tip helps uncover. Trump also said he will decide who gets reward money in cases where more than one person claims to have provided the tip.

“I will be the arbitrator of all of these decisions,” Trump in the Oval Office with Vance and other administration officials standing behind him. “It’ll be a binding arbitration.”

Will this plan encourage whistleblowers?
