Description: 
Trump offered Iran $6 billion to reopen Hormuz, and, Pravin Sawhney says, conceded he has no control over Netanyahu. Iran's answer, carried back by Pakistan's Field Marshal Asim Munir: the next war "will not be the 40-day war" — if attacked, Iran would hit desalination plants, power grids, ports, refineries, US AI infrastructure in the Gulf and the seven subsea cables under Hormuz. Host Zulfiqar Ali brings what people in the room with Munir told him: Pakistan has decided to stand with Iran.

Description: 
The EU now wants a negotiator in chief to talk to Vladimir Putin, and Alexander Stubb is the frontrunner. Alex unpacks Petr Pavel's claim that Trump's diesel deal rescued Russia, Lviv's year of the UPA angering Poland, Ursula von der Leyen's energy union push, the Putin Witkoff meeting and growing signs of a major US strike on Iran. If Brussels is so confident of victory, why does it suddenly need someone to call the Kremlin?

Andrei Martyanov says bombing is the only thing the United States can still do, and that it cannot sustain a long campaign or send ground troops into Iran.

Alexander Mercouris | Russia Tells US No Concessions Restates Full Demands; Massively Hits Kiev; South Bridge Hit; Orekhov | Oct. 22, 2026

Description: 
Russia has made it clear there will be no concessions, with Sergei Ryabkov saying any deal must reflect the realities on the ground, Russia's constitution and a binding guarantee that Ukraine never joins NATO. Alexander explains why the Donbass for NATO trade is dead, why Moscow is playing for time before the Abu Dhabi talks, and what the strike on Kiev's South Bridge, the empty air defenses and the advances around Orekhov and Lyman reveal about where the conflict is heading. Is Washington even listening to what Putin told Witkoff?

On Judging Freedom, Lawrence Wilkerson tells Judge Napolitano that isolating Iran is beyond American capabilities, combined or separate, contrary to what Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has maintained. He says another US-Israeli attempt like 28 February would meet a dispersed Iranian command, and that Tel Aviv would then be hit by Iran and by Hezbollah.

Brian Jackson | The Dan Burisch story: Area 51, time travel and Project Looking Glass | Oct. 22, 2026

Source: Polarity Josh youtube



Description:
Was the US Government gifted technology capable of looking into the future? And could some extraterrestrial beings actually be humans travelling back through time?

In this episode I'm joined by UFO investigator Brian Jackson, creator of the Dan Burisch Archive, to explore one of the most extraordinary and controversial stories in UFO disclosure history.

Dan Burisch is an Area 51 whistleblower who claims to have worked at the highly classified S4 facility, conducting biological research on an extraterrestrial entity known as J-Rod. His testimony involves Project Looking Glass, advanced time travel technology, future humans, secret government programs, Majestic 12, and the manipulation of human timelines.

For over a decade, Brian Jackson has investigated the Dan Burisch story, collecting rare interviews, documents, whistleblower testimony, and historical evidence to preserve this fascinating case.

Together, we explore the mysteries surrounding Area 51, Project Aquarius, extraterrestrial contact, alien biology, human consciousness, telepathic communication, and the possibility of hidden technologies that could fundamentally change our understanding of reality.

How much of Dan Burisch's incredible testimony can be verified, and what has Brian uncovered through his investigation? 

Larry Johnson | China signed off. Trump reportedly favors a first strike on Iran. Pakistan backs Iran, warns MBS | Transition Protocol | Oct. 22, 2026

Source: Transition Protocol youtube



Description:
A senior Pakistani source tells host Zulfiqar Ali that Pakistan has picked Iran's side against US and Saudi pressure — after consulting Beijing — and that "nobody can save MBS". Live, Larry Johnson reads Haaretz's report that Washington now favours a preemptive strike on Iran.

01:51 Pakistan's choice: "stand firmly on the side of Iran" — per a Pakistani insider.
02:45 "Six corridors… back to where they were."
04:52 The message to MBS.
06:52 The first strike, as Haaretz reports it — and the US embassy order Larry Johnson reads as a war signal.
10:43 "Nothing left": what was said in Tehran about an Israeli nuclear strike — reported by the host's source.

What you'll learn: which side Pakistan has taken and who signed off on it · why Pakistan has told MBS to choose · what Haaretz reported about a US preemptive strike · what the Gulf embassy order does and does not mean · what closing both Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb would cost the world.

Sourcing note: Pakistan's decision, the consultation with China's Wang Yi, the message to MBS and the remark in Tehran are our host's own sourcing from a senior Pakistani source and cannot be independently verified. 

Public record: Field Marshal Munir was in Tehran on 20–21 October and met SNSC Secretary Mohsen Rezaei; Pakistan reopened its Taftan and Gabd–Rimdan crossings with Iran on 20 October after closing them on 17 October, citing security; LPG imports remained blocked. 

The "six corridors" are the source's account. Haaretz's correspondent reported an apparent US shift toward a preemptive strike, citing White House sources — that is the "reportedly" in our title; Haaretz also reported the same day that Trump had blocked an early-October strike. 

Reuters reports the US ordered some embassy staff and families out of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Jordan, with US officials citing Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia; no report lists Kuwait. Fars reported explosions of unknown origin in Sirik, southern Iran — not Iraq. Pakistan, Türkiye, Qatar and Indonesia signed the "Badr" defence-industry MoU in Doha on 21 October. 

The New Atlas | US preparing for more strikes on Iran: using "Leave it to Bibi" to pass the blame | Oct. 22, 2026

Source: The New Atlas youtube



Description:
- The Western media is once again attempting to sell the notion that Israel, not the US, is pushing for war with Iran and bringing a "reluctant" US along unwillingly;

- This is a deliberate policy published in papers as early as 2009 discussing the use of US proxy Israel to start a war with Iran and ultimately absorb most of the blame and retaliation for doing so;

- The US has repeatedly used this strategy under the previous Biden and now Trump administrations - and even repeatedly under the current Trump administration;

- The notion the US is planning strikes on Iran around "elections" is betrayed by the material reality elections do not effect US foreign policy and especially not policy regarding Iran - as continuity of agenda has continued against Iran for 26 straight years regardless of who controlled Congress or sat in the White House;

- And no, just because Israel is a proxy of the US doesn't mean it is not just as guilty as the US itself for the crimes its government, military, intelligence services, and their civilian supporters commit as proxies of US power;

Alexander Mercouris | Putin Trashes EU/Kiev Offer In Witkoff Meeting; No Truce November Talks; Russia To Bomb Kiev Bridge | Oct. 21, 2026

Source: Alexander Mercouris youtube



Description: 
Vladimir Putin has dismissed the Oslo plan Steve Witkoff carried to St Petersburg, telling him the European and Kiev proposals offered little useful for ending the Ukraine conflict. Alexander explains why forcing Russia to choose between Donbas and Ukraine staying out of NATO was always doomed, why the November 10 trilateral talks will come with no ceasefire, and why recent Russian glide bomb strikes near the Kiev and Dnipro bridges look like rehearsals for something bigger as forces close in on Zaporozhye. With Zelensky refusing every concession and Biletsky now running the Donbas battle, is a negotiated settlement still possible at all?

France is in flames and Macron has left the country, but in this episode we argue this is not just a French crisis, it is a European one rooted in a Brussels center that now controls borders, migration, the euro, foreign policy and Project Ukraine. From Orban and Georgescu to Meloni, Le Pen, Merz and the AfD, we explain why national governments can no longer answer to their own voters, and why Macron may already have his eyes on the European Central Bank as Lagarde moves on.

Pepe Escobar | MBS wants Pakistan. Trump needs Iran. What did Munir deliver? Munir in Tehran | Transition Protocol | Oct. 21, 2026

Source: Transition Protocol youtube



Description:
MBS wants Pakistan. Trump needs Iran. Pakistan’s Field Marshal Munir is in Tehran — and our host’s sources say MBS gets a no. Pepe Escobar says what Munir carried: a quiet return of IAEA inspectors, for little more than the interest on Iran’s $6 billion in Qatar.
— 06:10 The offer: IAEA inspectors back in Iran, and what Iran would get in return — according to Pepe Escobar.
— 14:21 “Show us the money”: why Escobar says Tehran won’t take it — before the 3 November midterms.
— 30:01 What MBS wants from Pakistan, and why our host’s sources say Islamabad will refuse.
What you’ll learn: what Field Marshal Asim Munir carried into Tehran · why Washington wants a concession from Iran before the midterms · how sanctions, the IMF and the border gates squeeze Pakistan · what Lavrov proposed in Tehran · what our host’s sources say about China’s backing, the Riyadh war room and Saudi pressure.

Sourcing note: The Qatari–Pakistani IAEA idea and its price are Pepe Escobar’s account; we have not located them in public reporting. The Pakistan–MBS and China reports are our host’s own sourcing from Islamabad and Rawalpindi and cannot be independently verified. 

The Najran delegation, the three Black Hawks and the Article 2 wording are as Escobar describes them; we have not located them. Escobar’s Balochistan remarks are a scenario, not a report. Public record: Fars said Munir’s trip was finalised on Monday 19 October; Reuters reported on 20 October — after this recording — that Mohsen Rezaei told Munir there would be “no talks with Washington until Tehran’s demands were met”, and that Iranian officials see “little prospect of a breakthrough before the November 3 vote”; Trump has said the US would not strike Iran again before 3 November. The 1934 Treaty of Taif was signed between Saudi Arabia and Yemen.
