  • Between martyrdom and ruin: Hamas’s next choice will pave a new chapter in Gaza’s history – opinion

  • Hamas now faces what analysts describe as an inevitable collapse rather than resilience, as Israel’s strategy shifts from targeting cells to dismantling the group’s entire ideological and symbolic framework; while military tactics combine precision strikes, displacement, and special forces incursions, Hamas’s rhetoric has pivoted toward a sacrificial narrative of martyrdom, with leaders like Khaled Mashaal framing death as the apex of struggle and hostages reduced to tools for buying time; observers note the group’s leadership appears to accept its demise, setting the stage for its leaders’ elimination and the movement’s erasure from international legitimacy, while Gaza prepares for a massive reconstruction effort estimated at $50 billion that will become a new geopolitical battleground; ultimately, Hamas’s pursuit of martyrdom highlights its failure to offer viable political alternatives, ensuring its downfall will mark both the end of an era and the beginning of a new chapter in Gaza’s future.

  • The inside story of how 8 Guardsmen fought through a major Kosovo riot

  • Eight Indiana National Guard soldiers were at the center of Kosovo’s worst clash involving U.S. troops since 2004 when a May 29, 2023, protest in Zvecan escalated into a violent riot. Leading Italian, Hungarian, and Polish peacekeepers under NATO’s Kosovo Force, they advanced to rescue two police vehicles trapped by an aggressive Serb crowd, which responded with bottles, bricks, and 56 grenades—both flashbang and fragmentation—injuring over 90 troops. Lt. Col. Jared Sheets led the shield wall to the trapped officers while Maj. Brendan Williams coordinated triage and mass evacuation, aided by medics, non-medical personnel, and UH-60 helicopters from the Alabama National Guard. Army investigators later found the grenades had been modified for greater impact. Seven of the eight Guardsmen sustained minor injuries but continued leading throughout the fight, earning Combat Action Badges alongside combat patches for all 300 soldiers in their brigade. The officers warned that the incident showed how quickly peacekeeping missions can turn deadly and the danger of complacency in volatile regions. Click here to read more.

  • AI startup Perplexity makes $34.5 billion bid for Google’s Chrome browser

  • Perplexity AI has made an unsolicited $34.5 billion all-cash bid for Google’s Chrome browser, aiming to acquire its more than three billion users and strengthen its position in the AI search race. Led by CEO Aravind Srinivas, the three-year-old startup—valued at $14 billion and backed by Nvidia and SoftBank—claims multiple funds have offered full financing for the deal, which pledges to keep Chrome’s Chromium code open source, invest $3 billion over two years, and retain Google as the default search engine. The bid comes amid U.S. antitrust pressure on Google, with regulators seeking a Chrome divestiture, though analysts say Google is unlikely to sell and could fight for years through appeals. Chrome’s strategic importance to Google’s AI push, including its AI-generated “Overviews” search feature, makes a sale improbable, with some experts valuing the browser at $50 billion or more.

  • Messianic Jews Are Seeing ‘Massive’ Global Growth with Prophetic Implications, Leader Says

  • Jeff Morgan of Jews for Jesus reports that the global number of Messianic Jews—those who believe in Jesus while maintaining Jewish traditions—has surged from about 350,000 in 2012 to roughly 1 million today, with 870,000 in the U.S. and up to 30,000 in Israel, a growth he views as a prophetic sign of Christ’s return. Morgan attributes the increase to God “opening the hearts” of Jewish people, aided by digital outreach that allows seekers to explore Jesus’ claims privately, even amid community pressure that can lead to family estrangement. He noted rising openness among young Jewish adults, citing a 2017 Barna survey showing over one-fifth of Jewish millennials believe Jesus was God in human form. Emphasizing that Jesus was Jewish and His teachings were rooted in Jewish Scripture, Morgan said Messianic Jews continue to observe traditions like Passover, seeing them fulfilled in Christ’s first or second coming. He believes the lifting of “spiritual blindness” among Jewish people marks a prophetic foreshadowing of national acknowledgment of Jesus as Messiah. Click here to read more.

  • From Ex Machina to Exfiltration: When AI Gets Too Curious

  • The rise of “artificial curiosity” in advanced AI systems is creating a new class of security risks, warns Danelle Au, as large language models and AI agents increasingly infer, speculate, and connect data in unintended ways—sometimes leading to the exfiltration of sensitive information. Beyond prompt injection attacks, malicious actors can coax models into revealing proprietary code, personal data, or restricted content through iterative, indirect queries. The danger escalates with autonomous AI agents that can browse, trigger workflows, and access APIs, potentially pulling from unauthorized sources without malicious intent but with under-constrained capabilities. Traditional enterprise controls are poorly suited for such emergent behaviors, leaving gaps in output monitoring, memory auditing, and prompt filtering. Au urges adopting “constrained curiosity” principles—such as least-privilege access for models, real-time prompt logging, red-teaming for exploratory behavior, immutable safety guardrails, and strict governance over AI memory—to mitigate risks before AI’s curiosity leads to costly breaches.

  • Iranian regime faces existential danger after US-Israeli airstrikes – analysis

  • Weakened by war and diplomatic stalemate, Iran’s leadership faces an existential choice: concede to US and Israeli demands to halt nuclear activity—risking a rupture within the regime—or defy them and face further military strikes. The June conflict, marked by Israeli and US attacks on underground nuclear sites and the killing of top commanders, exposed Tehran’s vulnerabilities and pushed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei toward resuming negotiations as a survival strategy, despite hardline opposition. President Masoud Pezeshkian insists talks are not surrender, while Washington and Jerusalem warn they will strike again if uranium enrichment resumes. With sanctions biting, infrastructure failing, and public frustration deepening, the regime is balancing the need for economic relief against the risk of being seen as capitulating. Analysts warn that without diplomatic or security guarantees, Iran could face inevitable renewed strikes, even as internal dissent, proxy setbacks, and domestic hardship erode its grip on power.

  • Paratroopers test autonomous vehicle with AI for mortar resupply

  • Paratroopers tested the Overland AI ULTRA Fully Autonomous Tactical Vehicle during the multinational Agile Spirit 25 exercise in Georgia on July 29, aiming to enhance battlefield safety by keeping soldiers out of harm’s way. The ULTRA, an all-wheel, off-road vehicle capable of carrying up to 1,000 pounds at speeds of 35 mph, ran mortar resupply missions for 60mm and 120mm units. Controlled via satellite or internet connectivity — or pre-programmed for autonomous routes — the system is designed to be affordable and expendable, costing far less than crewed combat vehicles. Overland AI sees future roles for ULTRA in breaching obstacles, reconnaissance, and medical evacuation. Army leaders say exercises like Agile Spirit help test and refine such capabilities, with soldiers reporting strong interest in wider adoption. Click here to read more.

  • FDA’s bellyflop a sign that AI is no silver bullet for public safety – interview

  • FDA’s new AI drug review tool “Elsa”—developed with OpenAI to help speed up approvals—has been accused by insiders of fabricating medical studies and misrepresenting research, making it unfit for clinical reviews. In an interview with Cybernews, Brooke Hartley Moy, CEO of AI fact-checking firm Infactory, said she wasn’t surprised, warning that large language models often hallucinate facts and are poorly suited for tasks demanding precision and trust. She cited pressure on agencies to deploy AI quickly without enough in-house expertise, creating a “perfect storm” for failure. While Moy sees promise for AI as an augmentation tool in healthcare, she stressed that human oversight is essential and that the FDA must take a cautious approach to rebuild public trust.

  • WATCH: Hamas uses fake WCK humanitarian vehicle to target IDF soldiers in Gaza

  • The IDF says it eliminated five Hamas fighters in Gaza last week who were using a vehicle falsely marked with the World Central Kitchen (WCK) emblem to disguise their activities. The military claims the fighters also wore yellow vests to appear as aid workers, aiming to avoid being targeted. WCK confirmed to Israeli officials that it had no connection to the vehicle, which was located in Deir al-Balah before being struck by an Israeli Air Force jet. The IDF accused Hamas and other groups of exploiting humanitarian symbols to mask military operations, and said it will continue working with aid organizations to prevent such abuse.

  • Celebrating 500 years since the first printed English New Testament

  • This year marks the quincentenary of the first printed English New Testament, completed by William Tyndale in 1525 after fleeing England to avoid Church opposition. Translating directly from Greek using Erasmus’s text, Tyndale first printed in Cologne—though only 22 chapters of Matthew survived—before successfully publishing the full New Testament in Worms, with copies reaching England and Scotland by early 1526. His work laid the foundation for the King James Version and many modern translations, shaping the English Bible for centuries. The Tyndale Society, founded in 1995, launched anniversary celebrations in Antwerp this July with an academic conference, concerts by the Tyndale Singers, and rare exhibits, including the only pristine surviving 1526 New Testament and a prison letter from Tyndale himself. Events will continue globally through 2026, offering churches and communities opportunities to reflect on the enduring impact of Scripture in the English language. Click here to read more.

  • Created a passkey? Hackers can bypass it using a simple downgrade attack

  • Security researchers at Proofpoint have revealed that hackers can bypass passkey authentication through a simple downgrade attack, exploiting gaps in platform support for FIDO2 logins. While passkeys are designed to replace passwords with a phishing-resistant method, many cloud identity services—such as Microsoft Entra ID—do not support them across all browsers and operating systems, allowing attackers to spoof an unsupported user agent and force victims into using weaker login methods like passwords with or without MFA. Proofpoint demonstrated a phishing kit that mimics Microsoft’s login flow, tricks users into selecting “other ways to sign in,” and captures both credentials and session cookies, enabling attackers to hijack accounts without needing further authentication. Though no active campaigns have been observed, researchers warn the flaw affects multiple passkey implementations and remains a serious threat until older authentication methods are fully disabled.

  • Israel in talks with South Sudan about Gazan resettlement plans – report

  • Israel is reportedly in talks with South Sudan about a potential plan to resettle Palestinians from Gaza to the East African nation, according to six sources familiar with the discussions cited by the Associated Press. The proposal, which could deepen ties between the two countries, involves exploring the establishment of camps for Gazans who choose to relocate, with an Israeli delegation expected to visit South Sudan to assess possibilities. South Sudanese civil society leader Edmond Yakani confirmed conversations with officials about the plan, which follows last week’s visit to Israel and the West Bank by South Sudan’s Foreign Minister Monday Semaya Kumba. Israel and South Sudan share longstanding ties, with Israel having supported South Sudan’s struggle for independence and being among the first to recognize it in 2011. Click here to read more.

  • Coyote Loitering Drone Interceptors Have Arrived On U.S. Navy Destroyers

  • Arleigh Burke-class destroyers USS Bainbridge and USS Winston S. Churchill have been outfitted with Coyote Block 2 loitering drone interceptors, enhancing the Navy’s ability to counter uncrewed aerial threats with lower-cost, flexible defense systems. These jet-powered interceptors, capable of lingering in the air and being dynamically retasked, mark a significant shift from traditional surface-to-air missiles like the SM-2 and ESSM, which are more expensive and less adaptable. The new launchers were spotted on the destroyers assigned to the USS Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group, and their deployment follows lessons learned from recent Houthi drone attacks in the Red Sea. Designed to meet the growing complexity of drone warfare, the Coyotes add a crucial layer to the Navy’s multi-tiered ship defense strategy, offering cost efficiency and operational versatility.

  • Reddit will block the Internet Archive

  • Reddit will begin blocking the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine from indexing most of its site, including post pages, comments, and profiles, after discovering that AI companies have been scraping Reddit data from archived pages in violation of its policies. The Wayback Machine will still be able to archive Reddit’s homepage, showing only which posts and headlines were popular on a given day. Reddit says it will restore broader access only if the Internet Archive can prevent scraping abuses and respect platform rules, such as deleting removed content. The move follows Reddit’s broader push to monetize access to its data, including paid deals with Google and OpenAI, API restrictions, and a lawsuit against Anthropic over alleged unauthorized scraping.

  • 4 Things Christians Need to Know about RFK Jr.’s mRNA Research Cuts

  • HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the termination of 22 mRNA vaccine development projects worth $500 million, citing peer-reviewed evidence that the spike proteins produced by such vaccines can cause systemic harm and fail to effectively prevent respiratory infections like COVID-19 and flu. The FDA has now mandated safety labeling on all mRNA COVID-19 vaccines to warn of potentially irreversible heart damage, especially in young men, while medical experts are pushing for greater transparency about vaccine risks. Kennedy says the government will shift funding toward safer, broader vaccine platforms, and a recent DOJ settlement now requires federal agencies to scrub vaccine status from employee records and bars its use in hiring or promotions. For Christians, the news underscores the importance of discernment, truth, and stewardship over health decisions, while advocating for accountability in public health policy.

  • GPT-5 demonstrates “shockingly low” safety: researchers jailbreak it in under 24 hours

  • Security researchers report that OpenAI’s new GPT-5 model shows “shockingly low” default safety, with SPLX finding it vulnerable to 89% of over 1,000 adversarial prompts when run without a system prompt—making it “nearly unusable for enterprise out of the box.” While a basic system prompt cuts vulnerabilities to 43%, GPT-5 still lags behind GPT-4o, which scored far higher in robustness tests. Effective jailbreak methods included obfuscated prompts and fake encryption challenges, with GPT-5 at times producing bomb-making instructions. NeuralTrust also confirmed weaknesses via “Echo Chamber” and “Storytelling” techniques that subtly poison conversation context. Experts warn organizations to harden GPT-5 before deployment and add runtime protections to mitigate systemic LLM safety risks. Click here to read more.

  • Rising antisemitism: Dangerous return to dark times – opinion

  • Antisemitism is erupting openly across the globe, with violent attacks, vandalism, online harassment, and even doxing campaigns targeting Jews in the U.S., Europe, and beyond, echoing the dangerous climate of the 1930s. Recent incidents include assaults in Poland and New York, antisemitic graffiti in U.S. cities, and Iran’s Press TV publishing personal details of people aiding wounded Israeli soldiers. FBI data confirms Jews remain the most targeted religious group for hate crimes in the U.S., while coordinated disinformation, progressive political silence, and public displays like “Heil Hitler” salutes at rallies fuel the resurgence. The authors warn that this is not only a Jewish problem but a societal one, urging especially non-Jews to speak out now or risk repeating history’s darkest chapters. Click here to read more.
