Today Jimmy DeYoung will make contact with Ken Timmerman, on the "catbird seat" in Washington, on this edition of PTIB. Jimmy and Ken will have a discussion on the report that the Russian military held an exercise, in preparation for a nuclear war, involving some 40 million Russians; an up-date on the Mosul war, even as the UN prepares for IS to use chemical weapons in Mosul; Turkey's Erdogan wants into the battle for Mosul and the Iraqi President says "No"; Russian and Egyptian paratroopers are in a joint military exercise: and the Chief on the Iranian Revolutionary Guard says they are the most powerful fighting force in the ME.
