Biden Tells Netanyahu: U.S. Won’t Support Retaliatory Strike on Iran. But Some Republicans Want One.

In a phone call with Netanyahu late Saturday, Biden told Netanyahu, “You got a win. Take the win,” according to a senior U.S. official who spoke with Axios. Biden further told Netanyahu that the U.

CNN’s Jake Tapper spent part of this Sunday morning speaking to National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan about the Israeli blockade of Gaza, which impacts a population of over 2 million people, approximately half of whom are under 18.
Tapper acknowledged that Israel’s assault against Gaza is “a different situation” than Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but asked: “But cutting off supplies, cutting off heat, cutting off water to civilians. What’s the difference?”
Sullivan replied, “Well, first, thank you for saying that Israel is not Russia, because Israel is not Russia–” to which the CNN host interjected, “Civilians are civilians, Jake! Civilians are civilians!”
This outburst caused Sullivan to pause, and he agreed, “Yes, absolutely they are. And they deserve, as I said before, access to water and medicine and food.”
Sullivan assured Tapper that Israel “turned the water pipe back on in southern Gaza” but made it clear that so far,...

The Invictus Games are here, and Prince Harry is “in his element,” according to a body language expert. But, not when he’s taking the stage or meeting dignitaries in Düsseldorf, Germany. Rather, when he’s meeting children at the games.

On Sept. 10, 2023, day two of the games, which he founded in 2014, Harry met a young boy while watching the wheelchair rugby Canada vs. New Zealand match. Sitting courtside with Nigeria’s Minister of Defense, the young fan walked up to Harry.
“This is such a sweet moment as we can see Harry’s face light up as the small child is brought over to chat, holding [their] cap over [their] face in a gesture of shyness,” Judi James, a body language expert, told The Mirror.

L.A.-based director Guy Nattiv is back in his native Israel with new film Golda starring Helen Mirren as Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir.
The drama, focused on Meir’s controversial handling of the 1973 Yom Kippur War, opened the Jerusalem Film Festival on July 13, with Mirren squeezing in an appearance just hours before the SAG-AFTRA strike was declared.
The picture originally world premiered at the Berlinale in February, but for Nattiv the Israeli premiere is equally if not more momentous.
“I’ve been waiting for this moment,” Nattiv tells Deadline in Jerusalem.
The director believes the film will chime with current debates in Israel on both its past and future.
“It’s kind of an Israeli movie with an international swagger,” he says of the English-language production, starring a mixture of international and Israeli stars who also include Camille Cottin and Lior Ashkenazi. “It has another layer that...

The United States Football League, which challenged the NFL’s dominance in the 1980s before collapsing after just three seasons, will attempt a comeback in the spring of 2022.
Fox Sports has signed on as official broadcast partner for the Usfl and also owns a minority equity stake in the company that is resuscitating the league. In March, Fox was among the longtime media partners of the NFL signing a long-term renewal to continue carrying Sunday afternoon games. It is surrendering Thursday night rights to Amazon after this fall’s run of games.
“The relaunch of the Usfl is a landmark day for football fans and Fox Sports,” Fox Sports CEO and executive producer Eric Shanks said. “Football is in our DNA and the return of this innovative and iconic league is a fantastic addition to our robust slate of football programming.”

The Usfl is back after a 37-year absence. The United States Football League announced on Thursday it will relaunch next spring.
The original Usfl ran for three years from 1983-1985 and was notable for competing with the NFL for star athletes, attracting the likes of Herschel Walker, Reggie White, Steve Young and Jim Kelly. Former president Donald Trump was also an owner of one of the franchises, the New Jersey Generals.
Fox Sports will be the league’s broadcast partner, giving it two pro football franchises. Fox is also a minority investor in the company that owns the Usfl. The rebooted league will feature at least eight teams and “retains rights to key original team names.”
When it launches, it will compete with the XFL, which itself is relaunching (for the second time) next spring under new co-owners Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Dany Garcia.

Professional wrestling has always been a sideshow in the world of sports, drawing castoffs from other mainstream sports and allowing them to showcase their athleticism. For decades, wrestling has served as an Island of Misfit Toys for athletes who wished to compete physically but could not find a place in their originally chosen sport.
Whether you think professional wrestling is a sport or not, there is not question that the workers who apply their trade in the ring are phenomenal athletes. Even though wrestling is a predetermined contest, only a special brand of athlete can compete in the ring and be successful at the same time.
Because of this, wrestling has always attracted athletes from other professional sports. Guest stars such as Lawrence Taylor, Reggie White, Dennis Rodman, and even Muhammad Ali have all tried their hand at professional wrestling at one point in their careers. These men mostly served...

A judge overseeing a mediation in a consolidated multidistrict lawsuit involving some 4,500 National Football League ex-players has announced that a $765 million settlement has been reached. The judge has hailed it as "historic." The lawsuit from such players as Hall of Famers Eric Dickerson and the late Reggie White contended that the league's response to an epidemic of brain injuries has been "a campaign of deceit and deception, actively concealing the risks players faced from repetitive impacts." The settlement comes after two months of negotiation between the parties and includes no admission of liability from the NFL. The
