International Director of El Ciudadano media in Latin America Denis Rogatyuk discusses the failed coup attempt in Bolivia yesterday afternoon, whether the United States played a role in the planning, and how we should expect the outcomes to play out in upcoming elections in both Bolivia and Venezuela as the latter promotes transparency.

Author and West Coast Regional Coordinator of the ANSWER Coalition Richard Becker discusses starvation of Rafah in Gaza, whether Israel's goal of destroying Hamas is feasible, whether it is possibel that Hamas has evacuated from Rafah, the Israeli Supreme Court's decision to force ultraorthodox students to serve in the Israeli military, the prospects of a greater regional war between Israel and the ‘Axis of Resistance’ powers including Hezbollah, Ansarallah and Iran, the presidential election in Iran, and what to expect from Mark Rutte’s anticipated leadership of NATO.
