Read on for today's agenda below prepared by David (thank you very much). - Retired US Diplomat to 5 different nations  David Hunter shares his knowledge, passion, interest, and experience.

1)G-7 Summit in Italy June 13-15: Italy's right wing Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is hosting the latest G-7 Summit. Host Meloni has expanded the group to include a large and controversial guest list, including Heads of State of Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, S. Africa, India, Turkey, Algeria, Brazil, Ukraine and Kenya. What is the significance of this move?

2)Russian Warships and Strategic Bombers Hold Exercises Near East Coast USA: Russia has announced it is conducting war training exercises off the East Coast of USA later this week, including war-ships and strategic bombers. Is there any reason to be concerned?

3)Successful Israeli Hostage Rescue Operation?: This week, Israeli Navy Commandos launched 'Operation Amon' inside the Nuseirat Refugee Camp in central Gaza. In a daring Rambo-style rescue, they saved four live hostages. But 270 Palestinians were killed in the raid, including woman and children. And Hamas now claims this IDF raid killed three Jewish hostages, including one American. So was it really a success?

4)Is Jewish 'Emancipation' Threatened by The Rising European Far Right?: The Emancipation of Jews from European ghettos began during the Age of Enlightenment. Before that, from 1200 to 1500, European Jews had to wear identifying badges, often yellow or white. This 'yellow badge' was reintroduced by Nazi regime under Hitler. Now Europe is seeing a new wave of far-right political parties. Can the Neo-Nazi policy of yellow badges be far behind?
