Russia's tense stand-off with Ukraine might seem like a straightforward case of one country menacing another, with about a hundred and twenty thousand Russian troops mustering on their neighbour's border. Russia has already occupied the Ukrainian territory of Crimea, and is widely believed to be helping separatists in the country's east. But, as an old saying has it, where you stand depends on where you sit; perspectives can vary widely. Francis Scarr was recently sitting in the rather intimate surrounds of a Russian bathhouse, and found his companions holding a very different view of who was threatening whom. The foreign troops have left, and the fighting is much diminished. Afghanistan is at relative peace, and this has given the opportunity for many refugees to return to their homes. More than two million people have fled Afghanistan over the years, but the many conflicts there have forced more than three million to leave their cities, towns and villages, while remaining within the country. Some of these have now gone back, in the hope of picking up from where they left of, but often to find all that they once owned has been taken away or is lying in ruins. Andrew North went to meet some in the southern Afghan region of Helmand. Turkey seems determined to have influence abroad to a degree - some say - not seen since the days of the Ottoman Empire. The country has already intervened militarily in both Syria and Libya and built semi-permanent military bases in Northern Iraq. Whatever one thinks of Turkey's ambitions though, the country is not usually seen as a seafaring power, yet it seems that some in the country want that to change. They explained why to Tim Whewell, during a recent trip to Istanbul. A writer who visited Scandinavia once said that theirs were the only languages where it was the vowels that were the greatest challenge. While many struggle with a French “je” or the “ch” of Germany's “Bach,” it's the a, o and u of Swedish, for example, which can be tough for foreigners to master. And then there's the intonation: much fun is made of Swede's almost sing-song way of talking. Yet, there is only so much mockery of their language that people will take, particularly when it comes to the pronunciation of their own names. The many different ways in which Mathilde Weilin's name has been pronouced have given her something of an existential crisis. The Turkana region in northern Kenya is a remote and barren place, where some of the oldest pre-human fossils have been found, remains of Homo sapiens' long-distant ancestors. However, life for the present-day people of Turkana is not easy: the land they live off has been hit by environmental damage, with drought more common than ever – the result of climate change, many believe. When Samuel Derbyshire went to study their way of life, he found the legacy of many previous efforts to help Turkana's people, and to show them more reliable means of subsistence. And yet he ended up wondering who it was that should be teaching, and who learning.

The word service is defined as the action of helping or doing work for someone. The Honorable Patrick Murphy has served...and led...in many arenas. He was America's first Iraq War Veteran elected to Congress. He was later appointed by President Obama to serve as the Undersecretary of the Army and the acting Secretary of the Army. He was the youngest professor to ever teach at West Point. Today, Patrick is a Vetrepreneur, where he serves as an angel investor for Veteran-owned businesses, advocates for mental health programs, and mentors the next generation of our nation's leaders. Patrick joins this episode to discuss his journey from Soldier to Congressman to leading the Army's over one million people. We cover his thoughts on leading in combat, why he felt compelled to enter politics and run for Congress, and how service to others is the greatest role a leader can play in any organization. Read the full episode transcription here and learn more on The Jedburgh Podcast Website.Highlights:-Growing up as a blue-collar kid in Pennsylvania showed Patrick the importance of service and the need for structure; driving him to join the Army.-Patrick was the youngest professor ever to teach at West Point.-Patrick talks about the difference between the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and how they shaped his perspective on elected leaders. -Fran challenges Patrick to show us how to work across the aisle, enhance collaboration and bridge the divide between our views and those who disagree with us.-Patrick defines leadership in America, what we need moving forward and how leaders of character lead no matter what. -Patrick was known as the Soldiers' Secretary and describes his “leader first” concept.-Patrick championed ground-breaking legislation such as the ​​21st Century GI Bill, the Repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell, and Hire Our Heroes.-Patrick describes the importance of investing in Veterans and Veteran-owned businesses.Quotes:-”West Point is the Athens and Sparta of America…you cannot leave West Point without love of country.”-“I knew I had to get involved in political public service to be a voice of reason and to fight for my brothers and sisters…to fight to do what's right.-”I love the quote hire for talent, train for skill.”-”We can disagree on things but you never become disagreeable.”-“I do think that we need more veterans in office; because they work as teams. They tend to put the country first. They tend to not answer to political bosses or parties.”-”We are not perfect. We are never going to be perfect. But we are a good country. Partially because we are always trying to make it better…that's our solemn duty.”-“What leadership is…you inspire others to do things they wouldn't otherwise do.”-“We develop leaders of character for a lifetime of service. Character is how you are when no one is looking.”-”I don't just talk about it.

Afghanistan ‘hanging by a thread', Guterres tells Security Council Holocaust Remembrance Day Tonga: Access to safe water still major concern

He gets into details of refugee policy and women's education, as well as reflects on leadership, working in high-threat environments, serving in Iran, finding satisfaction in tough work, and how DC thinkers and diplomats in the field can work together better.

Brian Reese is the founder and CEO of VA Claims Insider, and he is one of the world's leading experts in veteran benefits. Through his company, he's helped millions of veterans secure their financial future since 2013. A former active-duty air force officer, Brian deployed to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. A veteran himself who personally struggled with the disability claim system, Brian started a company that coaches veterans through the claim process. Now, he has written the book, You Deserve It: The Definitive Guide to Getting the Veteran Benefits You've Earned.Following his last tour in Afghanistan in 2011, Brian faced many mental and physical issues upon his return home. However, he didn't want to talk about these things which led to some very destructive tendencies. However, it was through this journey that he learned how to open up and be vulnerable. Brian challenges listeners to ask themselves these questions: Are you being the real you? And are you being honest with family and friends? Brian's true breakthrough was getting out of his own way by being honest about what he struggled with. Outside of his wife and children, his family and friends didn't previously know  any of his true struggles. But when he started opening up, it was as if he saw his entire life open up. Eventually, other veterans started reaching out and sharing how much they resonated with his struggles and his stories. He watched that vulnerability lead to a movement of veterans helping veterans, paving the way for VA Claims Insider. Through VA Claims Insider, Brian's team helps veterans get the benefits they've earned for their service. They partner them with an expert coach who will walk with them through the VA disability claims process from beginning to end, ensuring they are never alone and making what's confusing very simple and easy.Brian talks about the process of writing his book, You Deserve It: The Definitive Guide to Getting the Veteran Benefits You've Earned, which sold 10,000 copies in its first month of release! The book details all of the federal and state benefits as well as many other discount programs available to veterans and their families.The two round out the conversation by talking about Brian's journey as an entrepreneur and how he carried his military experience into a growing, thriving business. And his two pieces of advice to fellow entrepreneurs? Be a self-motivated self-starter and persevere through adversity by being willing to constantly re-invent yourself.Episode Links:https://vaclaimsinsider.comFree E-Book: You Deserve It: The Definitive Guide to Getting the Veteran Benefits You've Earned:https://www.youdeserveitfree.com/freedom1Order your copy of Start With A Win: Tools and Lessons to Create Personal and Business Success:https://www.startwithawin.com/bookConnect with Adam:https://www.startwithawin.com/https://www.facebook.com/REMAXAdamContoshttps://twitter.com/REMAXAdamContoshttps://www.instagram.com/REMAXadamcontos/ Leave us a voicemail:888-581-4430

President Joe Biden has finished his first year in office with a number of foreign policy tests he has had to confront. The Afghanistan pullout, the situation in Ukraine, and our growing rivalry with China all represent tests the president has had to face. They are tests that Vandenberg Coalition Executive Director Carrie Filipetti and Senior Policy Director Amanda Rothschild say he's failed."You just go around the world in every region: We're worse off today than we were a year ago," says Rothschild. "Whether it's North Korea, Afghanistan, China, Ukraine, it's worse than we were a year ago, and that's a result of his policies."Filipetti adds, "Our word mattered in the past because it was backed by our power, and we no longer have the power backing our word."Filipetti and Rothschild, both of whom served in the Trump administration, join "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss a year of foreign policy events, and how the president has failed America on the world stage.We also cover these stories:Republican lawmakers accuse the Biden administration of targeting federal employees seeking religious exemptions from its COVID-19 vaccine mandate.Fearing a Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Biden administration begins planning sanctions and export controls on the Russian economy, in addition to mitigation procedures if Russia withholds energy supplies in retaliation.

Nebraska looks to join the 21 other states that have passed NRA-backed constitutional carry laws. While the measure has not yet been scheduled for a hearing, please contact your state Senator and ask them to SUPPORT Legislative Bill 773. Legislative Bill 773 allows a law-abiding adult who is legally allowed to carry a concealed firearm, to do so without first having to obtain government permission. This ensures that citizens have the right to self-defense without government red tape or delays. Additionally, this legislation maintains the existing concealed handgun license system, so citizens who still wish to obtain a permit may do so.

The New York Times, citing unidentified administration officials, reported that Biden is considering sending troops to allied countries in the Baltics and Eastern Europe, a move that would increase the U.S. military's presence across the globe at a time when diplomatic conversations between Washington and Moscow appear to be at a stalemate. (Click Here for Full Article)   From www.foxnews.com: From negotiating with the malign Iranian regime while they have threatened former President Trump, or allowing the Taliban to sweep through Afghanistan and directly imperil American lives, or refusing to hold the Chinese Communist Party accountable for its central role in the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic or for its aggression towards Taiwan, the Biden administration's record after one year in office is marked by abject weakness. But his weakness has been unmatched in attempting to deter Russia's imminent invasion of Ukraine. For months now, Vladimir Putin has massed Russian military forces on the Ukrainian border. Last month, on December 17, the Kremlin unveiled two draft agreements that essentially acted as ultimatums for NATO and the Biden administration. (Click Here for Full Article)

C'est dans le creux du mois d'août 2021, quand l'actu est habituellement endormie par la quiétude estivale, que l'Afghanistan s'est invité partout dans nos bulletins d'info. Après une offensive menée dans tout le pays, les talibans avaient pris le pouvoir à Kaboul, vingt ans après en avoir été chassés. Depuis ce renversement du gouvernement, les mois ont passé et l'Afghanistan est toujours plongé dans le flou, entre un chômage qui augmente et un peuple qui a faim.Tout cela, Sadia Hessabi, née à Kaboul en 1976 et arrivée en France à l'âge de 14 ans, l'observe avec tristesse et lassitude depuis Lyon, sa ville d'adoption. Émilie Laystary a rejoint la cheffe un midi, en cuisine, dans une MJC de la ville où elle était affairée à faire à manger. Au micro de Bouffons, celle qui a récemment participé au dîner solidaire “Afghane the power” organisé par le Refugee Food raconte comment, en arrivant en France, la cuisine s'est progressivement imposée comme le meilleur moyen de réconcilier son enfance en Afghanistan avec sa vie d'adulte ici.Dans cet épisode, Sadia Hessabi revient sur le moment où elle a quitté Kaboul pour la France en 1991. Celle qui a créé Kaboulyon, service de traiteur qui propose un trait d'union entre ses deux villes de cœur, explique ce qui fait l'essence des plats afghans dans lesquels les épices et le yaourt se rencontrent.Bouffons est un podcast de Nouvelles Écoutes que j'anime avec l'aide en coulisses de Cassandra de Carvalho, et de Mathilde Jonin.Montage et mixage par Laurie Galligani Générique réalisé par Aurore Meyer MahieuSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this series we've looked at under-reported threats to global stability, from the psychology of Xi Jinping to the coming water crisis to the War on Truth. But what happens next? In this extended end-of-season edition, Arthur Snell steps back to look at the big picture with experts in geopolitics, future warfare and the Chinese, Russian and American superpowers. Can the world pull itself from the brink – or is our Long Peace coming to an end?   Season Two of Doomsday Watch is coming soon.

That cause can be nationalism, to serve a particular master or to promote a different vision of society.” – Margaret MacMillan •  “You saw it with defeat in Afghanistan: the West does not have confidence in its own values, nor the staying power to implement them anywhere else.” – Ian Dunt •  “We are in a very dangerous situation, where we face the potential of weapons systems outside of human control that perhaps can't be stopped.” – Margaret MacMillan •  “I worry now that we're entering a stage where we might have a big war. I think there's a 50-50 chance.” – Dr Mike Martin •  “All around me I see people wanting to take on populism, who want a better kind of world that makes sense.” – Ian Dunt DOOMSDAY WATCH was written and presented by Arthur Snell, and produced by Robin Leeburn – with assistant production from Jacob Archbold.

Since the Taliban took over control of Afghanistan last year, the future of the country's women has been in peril. Many girls are barred from receiving an education, and women are prevented from holding many jobs. Back in 2019, special correspondent Jane Ferguson met with a female doctor in Kabul, and she recently returned to find that same doctor now faced with a previously unimaginable choice.

The Boys hope they won't have a need for monoclonal antibodies, since the FDA pulled back on their use. Ned Price doesn't understand the Afghanistan comparison, and The Today Show just figured out carjackings are a problem these days. President Joe Biden calls Peter Doocy of Fox News a “stupid son of a bitch,” and then called Doocy later to say, “It's nothing personal, pal.” A hospital denied a man a heart transplant, because he had not been vaccinated. Neil Young told Spotify to remove Joe Rogan, or remove his songs, and Elon Musk's Neuralink makes its next move to begin human trials. An Afghan refugee was convicted of sexually abusing a 3-year-old girl in Virginia, and the Super Bowl 56 logo looks like a bloody crime scene.

Tweetable Comments “There's been a few times in my career where I thought, ‘Should I do this or should I not? Should I play it safe? Or should I go after it?'” “Leaders get to a point where they no longer get candid feedback because it gets filtered by the time it gets to them. It's refreshing when they meet someone who gives them real-time feedback.” “It's ok to just say, “Hey, this is what I think is right and I'm going to go with it. If it crashes and burns, then that's okay. I was real about it. And if it succeeds then great.” From an early age my mom told me “You're a leader.” She didn't say, “You should be a leader.” Leading was God's gift to me, but one that she always imprinted.” “It was always very easy for me to lead people. It came naturally. It wasn't something that I was trying to do. I never thought, “How can I lead these people to do what I want?” “If there's a crossroad, what I often look at is “What's the harder one?” and that's almost always the right one.”

On COI #221, Kyle Anzalone discusses the Ukraine crisis. Biden has overextended American commitments and now must make concessions to defuse the crisis. Even if it leads to war, the Blob will demand that Biden hold firm against Putin. While the US continues to take aggressive positions against Russia, behind-the-scenes talks could be working towards a deal to prevent such a war.  Kyle talks about the U.K. High Court's ruling that Assange can appeal his extradition to the U.K. Supreme Court. The decision is key in the Wikileaks founder's fight for freedom. However, Assange will remain entangled in the UK justice system for months.  Kyle updates Saudi's brutal war in Yemen. Following a Houthi drone strike on the UAE, the U.S./Saudi air war on the people of northern Yemen accelerated. After knocking out the internet, Riyadh dropped American-made bombs on a youth soccer game and a migrant detention center. Kyle looks at the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan. Since the Taliban took control of the country in August, the U.S. levied a brutal economic war on the Afghans, sending millions to the brink of starvation. The U.S. is talking with the Taliban this week. The Taliban, as well as the UN, are pushing the U.S. to unfreeze Afghan government accounts.  Kyle breaks down the career paths of former Trump defense officials. Many are joining smaller tech firms' boards. The smaller firms give more control to the former officials to direct the companies.

America has been at war longer than many Americans have been alive. After the botched withdraw of Afghanistan last year it looked like our political class might have finally lost the stomach for foreign conflict. Not so fast! With the economy in trouble, rising inflation and approval numbers below 50% the elites in Washington need a distraction. Enter Ukraine. Today we'll discuss the risk of a new proxy war there and what it means for you.Plus, the 1/6 committee - the committee created to investigate the January 6th attach on the capitol are now claiming unlimited power when it comes to investigating U.S. citizens. A power they clearly don't have but when has that ever stopped government?All that and more so tune in.

The Westboro Baptist Church outraged both sides of the political spectrum throughout the 90s, 2000s and 2010s, picketing the funerals of AIDS victims and soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, touting their loud and always shockingly foul-mouth message that America was doomed because we had accepted homosexuality. Today we explore their most memorable “antics”, the life of their asshole leader and the family that makes up most of their following, trying our best to demystify one of America's most infamous pop-culture supervillains.
