This is an exercise I created for people getting into modes. Play it over a drone of the note A, like the link below, so you can hear each mode sounds in context. It goes through the modes from brightest to darkest. When you reach the end, play it backwards from locrian back to lydian.
Drone track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8P7O1iJYrlg&list=RD8P7O1iJYrlg&start_radio=1
Lydian = super-major
Ionian = MAJOR (the major scale)
Mixolydian = major with a bit of minor
Dorian = minor with a bit of major
Aeolian = MINOR (the natural minor scale)
Phrygian = super-minor
Locrian = ultra-minor (partly diminished)
All the modes above dorian are major modes. All the modes below mixolydian are minor modes. Locrian is so minor, it’s really in a class by itself: half-diminished.
Note that only one note changes each time you go from one mode to the next. Using the major scale as a reference, this is what’s going on:
R 2 3 #4 5 6 7 = lydian
R 2 3 4 5 6 7 = ionian (the major scale)
R 2 3 4 5 6 b7 = mixolydian
R 2 b3 4 5 6 b7 = dorian
R 2 b3 4 5 b6 b7 = aeolian
R b2 b3 4 5 b6 b7 = phrygian
R b2 b3 4 b5 b6 b7 = locrian
If you want a puzzle, figure out what the mode above lydian is and what the mode below locrian is.

A Propaganda Film By Betar USA
We are proud to present Grayzone subscribers with an early look at our behind-the-scenes portrait of Betar USA, the militant Zionist street group that claims credit for guiding the Trump administration's jailing and attempted deportation of pro-Palestine student activists.
After joining Betar, the producer of this documentary filmed a series of intimate interviews with Ronn Torossian, a famed New York public relations professional who helped establish Betar USA as a vehicle for advancing the ideology of the late Rabbi Meir Kahane in the US.
Presenting Torrossian and his henchmen in their own words, without an editorial filter or narration, this film offers a raw, bracing portrait of the most radical edge of American Zionism.

Regime Change In Venezuela
A sensible anti regime change article written in the Council on Foreign Relations’ magazine Foreign Affairs. (The CFR will occasionally publish something that isn’t entirely propaganda)
It goes over the dozens of American attempts at regime change in Latin America and other regions. The USA has never achieved regime change in any nation solely with air power and sanctions.
Regime change always requires boots on the ground. And in the past, not a single regime change operation has led to a pro democracy, peaceful regime. Instead interventions have always led to more brutal dictatorships, chaos and civil wars in the countries.
Even if the United States launched a ground invasion in Venezuela….the forces the administration currently has in place would not get the job done.
In early October, the Center for Strategic and International Studies estimated that a ground invasion would require at least 50,000 troops. Trump could, theoretically, assemble such a force. But launching a major invasion would starkly contravene his loud and repeated opposition to sending U.S. troops on foreign adventures and risk fracturing his base. Most observers downplay the invasion scenario, instead anticipating, as military experts told The Atlantic in October, a “push the button, watch things explode” campaign. It is also worth recalling that the United States could not control Iraq—a country half the size of Venezuela—with more than three times as many troops in 2003.
