Foi apresentado em finais de Maio em Paris, o terceiro e último volume do livro "Memórias em tempo de amnésia" de Álvaro Vasconcelos, especialista de relações internacionais e voz bem conhecida das nossas antenas. Nesta obra em três partes, o autor relata as épocas que atravessou, o salazarismo, o colonialismo português em África, nomeadamente em Moçambique onde viveu, os anos de militância política na África do Sul, em França e em seguida em Portugal, onde regressou na altura do 25 de Abril. No terceiro volume das suas memórias intitulado "O futuro para além do apocalipse", Álvaro Vasconcelos recorda a conquista da independência das ex-colónias, assim como os primórdios da democratização de Portugal e a sua adesão à União Europeia. O antigo director do Instituto de Estudos de Segurança da União Europeia e fundador em Portugal do Instituto de Estudos Estratégicos e Internacionais também evoca a viragem autoritária a que se assiste actualmente em várias partes do mundo, a que ele chama de «brutalismo» e que tem a ver com a corrente 'tecno-totalitarista', encabeçada nomeadamente por alguns magnatas da Silicon Valley. Álvaro Vasconcelos fala também da urgência ambiental, da urgência de não nos esquecermos que somos humanos, numa época em que tendemos a colocar tudo nas mãos da Inteligência Artificial. No fundo, ele fala da urgência de pensarmos. Neste livro denso que é uma chamada de atenção, ele começa cada capítulo com uma espécie de guião de filme e fala com um gosto não dissimulado de todas as fitas que o fizeram reflectir de outra forma sobre o mundo, porque este texto, ainda mais do que os anteriores, é uma declaração de amor à sétima arte. E evidentemente não podíamos deixar de falar -antes de mais- da importância que o cinema tem para Álvaro Vasconcelos. "O cinema é algo que me formou porque eu vivia na África colonial, na Beira, em Moçambique. E como era lá no fundo do Império, a ditadura era certamente muito mais suave para os brancos, para os negros era mais brutal do que em Portugal era para os portugueses. E os brancos da cidade da Beira, onde eu vivia, tinham acesso ao Cineclube da Beira, às grandes obras do cinema mundial, por exemplo, nós vimos o ‘Couraçado Potemkin', que em Portugal era absolutamente proibido. (…) E como o cinema, começamos a vê-lo mesmo muito, desde muitos miúdos, não só nos cineclubes, os cinemas eram a maravilha da época, era aquilo que nos educava, nos abria novos horizontes, que nos fazia rir com Charlot, com os irmãos Marx, que nos ensinava os problemas graves do mundo, como ‘Hiroshima mon amour', o neo-realismo italiano, ‘Os ladrões de bicicletas', etc. Evidentemente que o cinema teve para a minha geração e em particular para aquela que viveu no Império, mas não só, também também em Portugal, um impacto enorme, portanto, foi formativo. E ao escrever o último livro da minha trilogia, senti a necessidade de fazer um livro que fosse mais de reflexão que apenas descritivo da minha vida e de reflexão. Não sou filósofo, portanto, não podia ser uma reflexão filosófica. Mas era uma reflexão à volta das ideias que são veiculadas pelo cinema, que foram veiculadas pela grande literatura que eu li desde miúdo, que sempre me apaixonou e continuo a ler e que me ensinou imenso sobre o mundo. Eu descobri muitas coisas no cinema e na literatura que não era capaz de descobrir com o mesmo grau de profundidade dos ensaios", explica o autor. Nas suas memórias, Álvaro Vasconcelos fala da época colonial e também de uma descolonização das mentes que ainda não foi totalmente feita. "Em África, descobri a violência colonial e que a palmatória é um símbolo absoluto dessa violência. Palmatória com que iam castigar os empregados negros por coisas, não importa o quê. Mas mesmo que fossem coisas graves, era a mesma palmatória que era usada contra os escravos, como eu vi no Museu Afro-Brasileiro, em São Paulo. Infelizmente não temos em Portugal, nenhum museu sobre a escravatura. Temos um pequeno museu em Lagos, mas não temos um grande museu, como têm os brasileiros. E essa palmatória era usada também pelo professor primário para nos manter. Identifico a violência brutal de que era vítima pelo professor primário, que tinha um poder absoluto sobre mim, com a violência, de que eram vítimas os negros, que não tinham direitos nenhuns, nem direito à vida. E para que isso pudesse ter acontecido, foi preciso criar uma narrativa de que eles não eram gente civilizada. E essa narrativa perdurou no pós 25 de Abril, porque nunca se fez um trabalho verdadeiro de descolonização das mentalidades. E hoje, quando os imigrantes são tratados como são tratados com desumanidade, é porque não são considerados humanos iguais a nós. E como não são considerados humanos iguais a nós, podem ser vítimas da arbitrariedade. Não têm os direitos iguais. Isso é uma questão fundamental", considera o estudioso. "Quando se deu o 25 de Abril, podia-se ter feito uma coisa extraordinária e teria ficado para a história. Era considerar que toda a gente que reside em Portugal tem os mesmos direitos. Há um país no mundo em que isso, pelo menos já acontece, que é na Nova Zelândia. E, portanto, se os imigrantes tivessem o direito do voto, seriam tratados de forma completamente diferente ", diz ao referir que, em vez disso, "são vítimas da desigualdade mais absurda da escravatura às vezes da violência da morte no Mediterrâneo. Em vez de irem socorrer, acham que é uma forma dissuasiva que eles morram no Mediterrâneo. Isso, evidentemente, é feito posto em prática por políticos democráticos, mas evidentemente que estão a abrir o caminho à extrema-direita que fará disso uma doutrina de poder." No capítulo que reserva a estes aspectos, o autor escreve que “o silêncio sobre a verdadeira natureza do colonialismo é um dos grandes fracassos da democracia portuguesa” e que “a Europa assumir que o colonialismo foi um crime contra a humanidade tornaria o seu discurso sobre a democracia muito mais legítimo.” "O 25 de Abril foi uma revolução extraordinária. Libertou os portugueses da ditadura e criou um sistema de liberdades públicas, de Estado de Direito. Isso deve ser sublinhado e eu sublinho no livro, porque é único no século XX, uma revolução que não foi só uma libertação, mas trouxe a liberdade. Podemos pensar, por exemplo, que a Revolução de Outubro libertou os russos do Czarismo, que era um regime terrível. Mas não construiu um regime de liberdade. Isso aconteceu em Portugal. Simplesmente, Portugal era ao mesmo tempo uma ditadura e um império. E quando se construiu a democracia, fez-se um trabalho mais ou menos profundo sobre o que era a ditadura, o que é que era o fascismo. Existem vários museus, o Museu do Aljube, um museu em Peniche, existe um trabalho de memória. Existem nos livros de História. Conta-se o 25 de Abril, todo esse passado ditatorial. As pessoas sabem que houve a tortura, que havia a PIDE, que as pessoas não tinham direito à palavra. Tudo isso faz parte da memória colectiva dos portugueses", constata Álvaro Vasconcelos. "O que não se fez nenhum trabalho. O que é que era o colonialismo? Não se explicou o que é que era a tortura em África, o que era o trabalho forçado. Qual era a origem que isso tinha na escravatura? Manteve-se um mito do lusotropicalismo, ou seja, que Portugal tinha contribuído para criar um mundo diferente, um mundo não racista, um mundo multiétnico. Até se dizia isso : ‘Deus criou os homens e os portugueses criaram as mulatas' escondendo que as mulatas nasciam muitas vezes de actos de violação absoluta, porque as mulheres negras não tinham direitos e, portanto, o senhor tinha um direito de pernada sobre a mulher negra. Isso acontecia frequentemente. Eu, aliás, entrevistei para um dos meus livros uma senhora africana que conta exactamente a história de uma mulher que, depois do 25 de Abril, andava à procura do homem branco, que tinha sido o pai dos seus filhos e que o homem branco tinha desaparecido. Tinha regressado a Portugal e que nunca mais soube dele. E as crianças queriam conhecer o pai. Mas isto é um caso de uma pessoa que se movimentou. A maior parte das vezes ficaram e são vítimas de toda a discriminação. Isso é o aspecto em que o 25 de Abril não fez esse trabalho", diz o politólogo. "Quando em Portugal surge um movimento de sociedade civil poderoso, hoje formado por intelectuais afro-descendentes que defendem o direito à igualdade, que tem voz no espaço público, quando nos lembramos, por exemplo, da Joacine Katar Moreira que foi deputada na Assembleia da República, a campanha racista contra ela. No Parlamento, a extrema-direita dizia ‘Volta para o teu país'. Estou a falar numa deputada, membro do Parlamento. Mas depois as intelectuais todas que são superactivas na sociedade portuguesa, que é aquilo que há hoje de mais vibrante na sociedade portuguesa, mais criativo. Publicam, fazem filmes como a Pocas Pascoal e outros. Ainda recentemente a Kitty Furtado organizou na Gulbenkian um ciclo sobre o cinema africano produzido em Portugal, com numerosos filmes, numerosos realizadores. Portanto, na Bienal de Veneza, há dois anos, a representação de Portugal foram artistas negros. Portanto, temos um movimento extraordinário. Esse movimento choca com esta mentalidade dominante. E então são acusados de serem ‘wokistas'. ‘Wokistas, quer dizer que são pessoas com consciência", sublinha o universitário. Relativamente às lições que se podem tirar do pós 25 de Abril, Álvaro Vasconcelos faz um balanço agridoce : apesar de considerar que “os seus objectivos essenciais foram atingidos: liberdade, fim do colonialismo e um estado inspirado nos modelos sociais europeus”, ele constara que “o que triunfou não foram os mecanismos que permitiriam compatibilizar a democracia liberal com o desejo de participação dos cidadãos (...) com o tempo, os partidos tornaram-se organizações fechadas (...) foram-se impondo como actores únicos do sistema politico”. "Portugal fez uma revolução que permitiu a existência de partidos políticos que não existiam antes. Mas a revolução, no momento em que ela aconteceu, despertou uma vontade de participação enorme na sociedade portuguesa. Todos os portugueses queriam participar na vida política pública. Eu próprio participei na criação de um jornal que era a voz do trabalhador e aquilo vendia-se como pãezinhos quentes. Quer dizer, toda a gente cria jornais. Toda a gente queria ler. Toda a gente fazia um pequeno comício. Enchiam-se de pessoas. Criaram-se cooperativas, associações de bairro, associações, moradores, associações agrícolas, movimentos cooperativos por todo o lado. Ao mesmo tempo, os partidos políticos foram-se consolidando como forças dominantes da sociedade portuguesa. E esses movimentos participativos foram vistos pelos partidos que acabaram por triunfar como movimentos que eram contrários à consolidação da democracia representativa liberal, como havia no resto da Europa. E foram desaparecendo. E o sistema político português ficou concentrado nos partidos políticos. Esses anos todos passaram e as pessoas hoje, como têm acesso às redes sociais, já têm outra forma de expressão, sem passar pelos partidos políticos. Exprimem-se nas redes sociais. Muitas vezes, o que dizem alguns? Nós não gostamos nada. Mas outras coisas dizem coisas correctas. Estes movimentos que eu referi, ecológicos, anti-racistas, de solidariedade social, também usam as redes sociais. Mas há muita gente que usa as redes sociais e que diz coisas horríveis. Mas não interessa, diz. Acha que tem direito à palavra. E acha que os partidos não dão direito à palavra. Então vão atrás de um demagogo que diz ‘Eu dou vos a palavra. Eles não vos dão a palavra'. Os partidos políticos são organizações fechadas. Em Portugal nunca se fez a regionalização, porque os partidos acharam que aquilo era fugir ao controlo central dos partidos de Lisboa. Era abrir o controlo da sociedade a nível regional. E tudo isso foi enfraquecendo a democracia portuguesa", comenta. “Foi nas redes sociais, espaço sem regras, que descobri que estávamos perante um brutalismo neofascista. O significado das palavras e a verdade deixaram de ser facilmente reconhecíveis. O algoritmo privilegia a violência verbal, exponencia o número de visões e partilhas. Acreditei – e escrevi –, depois das revoluções árabes de 2011, que as redes sociais tinham potencial de empoderamento dos cidadãos e poderiam ser um factor de emancipação democrática, mas hoje sou obrigado a constatar que não tive em conta a capacidade de manipulação, seja pelos algoritmos ou ainda mais pela IA, dos Estados e grupos que controlam as empresas da indústria do mundo virtual", escreve Álvaro Vasconcelos no capítulo que dedica ao regresso do que chama de 'brutalismo'. "A nível europeu, nós não podemos separar de um fenómeno mundial, que é aquilo que atravessa bastante o meu livro, que é a ideia do colapso do pensamento. E esse colapso do pensamento. O que significa que quando os homens deixam de pensar, diz Hannah Arendt, são capazes dos piores crimes. E esses homens são capazes dos piores crimes. E o homem banal, o homem comum que pode seguir um líder que vai destruir as suas liberdades e a liberdade dos outros. E isso pode se chamar ‘tecno-totalitarismo'. Porquê tecno-totalitarismo? Porque grande parte da economia mundial hoje está a ser dominada pelas grandes empresas tecnológicas. Estamos numa nova revolução tecnológica. E as grandes empresas tecnológicas que dominam a inteligência artificial, que dominam as redes sociais, como o Musk, é o exemplo mais claro, defendem aquilo que eu chamei de ‘tecno-totalitarismo'», explica o autor das "Memórias em tempo de amnésia". "Há uma politóloga francesa, Asma Mhalla que diz que ‘este século não vos proíbe de pensar. Ele ocupa-vos até que já não se saiba como fazer. Isto vem, como eu digo aqui no livro, do desenvolvimento da Inteligência artificial. O desenvolvimento da inteligência artificial cria um mundo onde os humanos deixam de pensar. A banalidade do mal passa a ser a norma. Isso acontece em muitos actos quotidianos. Quando recorremos à inteligência artificial para tomarmos decisões. Quando manipulados por algoritmos, ficamos de tal forma hipnotizados que somos levados a acreditar nos líderes populistas como Trump, como Bardella em França como em Portugal, o André Ventura, como Bolsonaro no Brasil", diz Álvaro Vasconcelos. "Há um aspecto deste ‘tecno-totalitarismo' que também nos deve inquietar, que é menos presente em França, mas está presente em muitos países, que é a relação dele com uma determinada corrente religiosa. Ele é religioso na sua essência, porque ao mesmo tempo, fala de Apocalipse, destruição do mundo pelo aquecimento global, pela guerra nuclear e está a propor uma solução tecnológica para estes problemas. Ora, isto é típico da crença religiosa. A ideia do Apocalipse, se pensarmos no apoio dos evangélicos americanos a Trump e em cenas em que Trump se reúne com os evangélicos e os evangélicos rezam na Casa Branca a volta do Trump ou quando o Bolsonaro tomou posse rodeado pelos evangélicos, a primeira coisa que fizeram, foi um ato religioso. (…) Vemos que o ‘tecno-totalitarismo' muitas vezes é também uma ‘tecno-teocracia'. E, portanto, esse problema, que é um problema mundial, que é da criação do mundo em que os homens deixam de pensar, a inteligência artificial substitui o pensamento humano. É um mundo em que o brutalismo, que é o tema do meu livro, se torna possível. É possível que o Trump decida destruir o Irão, que o Netanyahu faça o genocídio de Gaza e agora esteja a fazer no Líbano o que fez em Gaza, no sul do Líbano. É exactamente a mesma coisa. Vai destruir o sul do Líbano completamente", diz o especialista em relações internacionais. No capítulo em que aborda o que chama de dever de hospitalidade, Álvaro Vasconcelos considera que é neste aspecto que a Europa pode fazer a diferença "para superar o brutalismo contemporâneo, porque, por um lado, é uma das regiões do mundo onde as democracias ainda resistem ao assalto da extrema‑direita neofascista, e por outro porque a hospitalidade é a essência da sua sobrevivência". "Estamos a falar da União Europeia, a que se podem juntar alguns Estados, como a Noruega, como hoje o Brasil do Lula. Têm a mesma ambição de escapar ao brutalismo de Putin, Trump, Netanyahu, ao ‘tecno-totalitarismo' que domina a China. Verdadeiramente o único sítio do mundo em que ainda há um grupo de Estados que pode e quer resistir é na União Europeia, mas que tem estes aliados muito importantes que tem que procurar no Canadá, já procura no Brasil. Por isso, o acordo com o Mercosul é tão importante, apesar de a Argentina do Milei estar completamente na mesma linha de brutalismo. Mas o Brasil é um país importantíssimo. Na Ásia, o Japão, a Coreia do Sul. (…) Portanto, a Europa é a nossa esperança. Mas para que essa esperança não passe de uma utopia não realizada, para ser uma utopia realizada, é preciso que a Europa integre toda a sua vitalidade num projecto comum, (…) é preciso uma mudança radical de política. Ou seja, é preciso uma política que seja alternativa à política da extrema-direita. Claramente. E o que é que se deve fazer? Os imigrantes que são grande parte da população europeia ou originários na imigração devem ser cidadãos plenos, activos, integrados nas nossas sociedades, dando-lhes o voto. Aqueles que ainda não têm, damos-lhe a palavra, ouvindo-os e tornando as nossas democracias muito mais participativas", preconiza o autor. No seu livro, Álvaro Vasconcelos estabelece um elo directo entre o ‘tecno-totalitarismo', a negação dos direitos de boa parte da humanidade e a destruição do meio ambiente. "Um dos temas que eu acho que é muito importante é a questão do ambiente. Eu, aliás, começo o meu livro com uma citação do Camus que diz ‘A minha geração quis mudar o mundo. Não o mudou, mas pelo menos lutou para preservar o que de melhor tinha sido conquistado'. (…) O aquecimento global está a ser um problema gravíssimo que pode pôr em causa a vida na terra. E aí é lembrarmo-nos de Edgar Morin, um grande pensador. Eu cito Edgar Morin dez ou 15 vezes no meu livro. Ele diz que nós não estamos só perante um mundo que destrói a vida humana. Estamos num mundo em que a globalização foi extremamente destrutiva do ponto de vista económico e social. Criou também a consciência de um destino comum da humanidade a consciência de que estamos todos no mesmo barco. Ou seja, no barco da vida. Nós sabemos que a vida não é eterna. Mas enquanto estamos no barco da vida, não vamos cair no niilismo. Nem vamos cair na melancolia de esquerda. Isto é uma conclusão que alguém tirou do meu livro que eu sou contra a melancolia de esquerda. A melancolia de esquerda é nós pensarmos em tudo aquilo por que a gente lutou está a desaparecer e já não podemos fazer nada. Vai tudo acabar. Vai acabar a democracia, a liberdade. Vai voltar o racismo como política de Estado. Vai desaparecer a ordem internacional. Vai desaparecer o multilateralismo", diz o universitário. "Estamos perante uma guerra cultural. É um tema central, porque a guerra cultural é algo que acompanha a civilização europeia desde o Iluminismo e desde a Revolução Francesa. Houve sempre uma corrente que se opôs às conquistas de liberdade, igualdade, fraternidade da Revolução Francesa. Considerou sempre que a compaixão pelo outro não fazia nenhum sentido, que o homem era um animal fundamentalmente egoísta e violento E que tinha que ser treinado desde criancinha para a competição. E por isso, a cooperação não é uma questão fundamental da aprendizagem. As pessoas não aprendem a cooperar, aprendem a competir. Já vimos no sistema escolar como é terrível a competição. A infância nas grandes escolas. O que é que é difícil chegar lá acima. Portanto, formam-se elites que foram treinadas para a competição e não foram treinadas para a cooperação. E se nós não cooperarmos neste barco da vida, se não percebermos que o clima não tem fronteiras, que o aquecimento é global, que os calores do Norte de África chegam à Europa, que as transformações da Amazónia transformam as correntes do Atlântico e nos atingem também como europeus. Então não perceberemos que estamos todos no mesmo mundo. Mundo, terra, pátria, como diz o Edgar Morin. E que neste mundo, terra pátria, nós somos todos cidadãos, mesmo quando não somos considerados cidadãos", conclui Álvaro Vasconcelos.

Japón se rindió el 15 de agosto de 1945, pero el país estaba en la más absoluta ruina. Las grandes ciudades habían quedado arrasadas por los bombardeos, Hiroshima y Nagasaki estaban totalmente destruidas y la flota mercante yacía en el fondo del mar. La producción industrial apenas alcanzaba el 30% de los niveles previos a la guerra. Para colmo de males, la cosecha de arroz de ese año fue muy mala. La ración oficial rondaba las mil calorías diarias en muchas ciudades y 6 millones de repatriados regresaban a un país incapaz de absorberlos. A ese cuadro se sumaba una inflación galopante que había pulverizado el yen. Sobre ese país acabado se estableció la administración de ocupación dirigida por el general Douglas MacArthur, que al principio buscó desmilitarizar, democratizar y castigar al antiguo enemigo. La llegada de la guerra fría y el triunfo comunista en China en 1949 cambiaron las prioridades porque en Washington temían que si los japoneses seguían en la miseria habría revueltas y la Unión Soviética no tardaría en apoderarse del archipiélago. La recuperación se apoyó en tres pilares. El programa GARIOA canalizó hacia el país unos 1.700 millones de dólares en alimentos, fertilizantes, combustible y medicinas, lo que evitó la hambruna que se esperaba para 1946 y 1947. A partir de 1948 se puso en marcha el programa EROA que se encargó de poner en marcha la industria enviando materias primas industriales como el algodón, el mineral de hierro y el carbón.

„Indem die Natur den Menschen zuließ, hat sie viel mehr als einen Rechenfehler begangen: ein Attentat auf sich selbst.“ Das schrieb der existentialistische Philosoph Emil Cioran in den 70er-Jahren. Auch wer seinen Pessimismus nicht teilt, wird kaum abstreiten können, dass die Menschheit oder zumindest ein mit großer Macht ausgestatteter Teil davon, mittlerweile ein Waffenarsenal angesammelt hat, mit dem sich zumindest menschliches Leben weitgehend von der Erde tilgen ließe. Wenn sich dem Rest der Menschheit eine Mitschuld unterstellen lässt, dann, weil sie diese potenzielle Macht immer wieder zulässt. Hierin besteht übrigens keinerlei Unterschied zwischen den angeblichen Demokratien und den angeblich autoritären Staatsformen. Das Machtkontrollversagen der Bürger oder Untertanen ist systemübergreifend. Wir nähern uns diesem apokalyptischen Szenario mit großen Schritten. Umso bedeutender ist jede Stimme, die sich dieser Entwicklung entgegenstellt und für Frieden wirbt. Mit unserer Reihe „Bücher gegen den Krieg“ möchten wir aufklären und der fortwährenden Propaganda von Regierung und Massen-Medien friedliche Positionen entgegenstellen. Lüge, Kriegshetze und ideologische Verblendung – ob mit oder ohne Hilfe von KI – ersetzen keine Wahrheit, egal wie laut sie hinausposaunt werden und wie sehr sie unsere Wahrnehmung beeinflussen.

En enero de 1945 los aliados intuían que la guerra entraba en su recta final, aunque nadie acertaba a fijar la fecha del desenlace. El teatro europeo de operaciones parecía más cerca del final que el del Pacífico. Alemania estaba cercada por el este, el oeste y el sur, mientras que el archipiélago japonés todavía resistía. Aún no se habían librado las batallas de Iwo Jima y Okinawa, por lo que el alto mando estadounidense calculaba que aquello no terminaría hasta mediado el año 1946 a un coste muy elevado en vidas. Lo que sí dominaban los aliados sin discusión era el aire, y de ese dominio surgiría la mayor campaña de bombardeo estratégico de la historia. En el Reino Unido Arthur Harris, al frente del Bomber Command, era partidario del bombardeo de área nocturno, concebido expresamente para incendiar ciudades enteras y romper así la moral de los civiles. Los estadounidense preferían el bombardeo de precisión diurno sobre objetivos industriales bien elegidos con anterioridad. Disponían de ciertos avances como la mira Norden y contaban con buenos cazas de escolta como los Mustang que protegían a los bombarderos. En la Conferencia de Yalta celebrada en febrero Roosevelt y Churchill decidieron desatar una campaña de bombardeos que aliviase presión a los soviéticos en el frente del este impidiendo que el ejército alemán pudiese desplazar tropas y pertrechos hasta allí. Ese mismo mes atacaron con furia Berlín el día 3 y Dresde entre los días 13 y 14 con tres oleadas combinadas que desataron una tormenta de fuego que en su centro superó los 1.500 grados. Unas 25.000 personas murieron en el bombardeo, pero no sería el único. Le siguieron otras ciudades como Pforzheim, Wurzburgo y Magdeburgo que fueron destruidas, incluso en mayor medida que Dresde. Pero lo que marcó la diferencia no fue tanto la destrucción de las ciudades como los ataques sobre la infraestructura ferroviaria, algo que terminó paralizando por completo el Reich. En el Pacífico el cambio vino de la mano de un joven general, Curtis LeMay, que en enero se puso al mando de los B-29 destacados en las islas Marianas. Los fuertes vientos en altura hacían muy difícil el bombardero de precisión sobre Japón. LeMay ordenó volar de noche, a baja altura, sin armamento defensivo a bordo de los aviones y con bodegas repletas de bombas incendiarias M-69. La noche del 9 al 10 de marzo la Operación Meetinghouse incendió 41 kilómetros cuadrados de la ciudad de Tokio y mató entre 80.000 y 125.000 personas en lo que fue el episodio bélico más mortífero no de la guerra, sino de toda la historia. Nagoya, Osaka, Kobe, Yokohama y Kawasaki sufrieron idéntico destino, y luego decenas de ciudades medianas. Pero, pese a la devastación, Japón no se rendía. En Washington se plantearon invadir las islas principales con una gran operación anfibia, pero estimaban que el coste sería altísimo, de hasta un millón de bajas. Fue entonces cuando recurrieron a la bomba atómica que habían desarrollado con el Proyecto Manhattan. El 6 de agosto cayó la primera en Hiroshima, tres días más tarde cayó otra sobre Nagasaki. Entre medias los soviéticos entraron en Manchuria. El día 15 el emperador Hirohito anunció la rendición incondicional. Esta tormenta de fuego plantea preguntas incómodas. Los bombardeos contribuyeron a la victoria si, pero las víctimas civiles superaron las 650.000 en ambos teatros. Harris y LeMay fueron condecorados, y los tribunales de Núremberg y Tokio prefirieron no abrir ese melón. Sucesivos acuerdos sobre el alcance de este tipo de bombardeo vinieron después, pero el debate sigue abierto.

Storied: San Francisco

Ed. note: We recorded this episode outside on a windy day near The Bay. Apologies for the wind gusts you'll hear throughout. Jenny Chan found Storied: San Francisco thanks to Toshio from Sad Francisco. Jenny and I kick off her episode talking about Toshio, in fact. Jenny was born in Hong Kong. Growing up, her dad's mom babysat her a lot. Young Jenny really loved anime and would turn it on at grandma's house. When she did this, her Chinese grandmother would get upset, and Jenny didn't know why. She thought maybe her grandma was senile. Later in Jenny's life, when her grandmother passed away and she helped clean and organize her home in China, she discovered items her grandma kept that pointed to a life spent under Japanese occupation before and during World War II. We mentioned anime, but when Jenny was a kid, she just loved Japanese culture all around. She indulged in manga whenever she could save up enough money. As with the anime, her grandma didn't take kindly to these Japanese things in her home. When she was 10, Jenny's parents split up. She and her older brother then joined their mom and moved to the US. When Jenny remarks that she's not sure how her mom did it, we go on a sidebar. Jenny shares that her mom grew up during the time of the US war in Vietnam, so she's a survivor. I add that, simply, women are amazing. In US schools, Jenny learned about the Holocaust. She also learned about Pearl Harbor, but like most school-age kids in this country, it was in the context of what got the US into WWII. Japanese colonialism and dominance in east Asia never really came up. Her family came straight from Hong Kong to San Francisco in 2000. Members of her mom's family had already been here, dating back to the Seventies and Eighties. Jenny and her mom and brother lived in the Tenderloin when they arrived. She saw the dirty streets in that hood and wondered why they traded Hong Kong skyscraper living for this. Her mom told her that for many reasons, including not having to buy school uniforms, life in SF was more affordable. Jenny's run of schools in The City—Lafayette, Presidio, Washington High. I ask her if she experienced culture shock moving halfway around the world. She says yes and points to knowing only people from Hong Kong when she lived there. Here, she quickly learned that there are folks from all over China and differences abound. She says also that Chinese people she met in San Francisco or The Bay were stuck in whatever era they moved here during, and that was sometimes startling. We go on a sidebar here after Jenny asks me about my own move here from Texas in 2000. Jenny spent a lot of time in the school library, including during lunches. She dedicated herself to learning from an early age. She recognized the hardships her family was going through and saw education as a way to climb out of that. She used her 45-minute Muni commutes from the Tenderloin to school in the Richmond to read and do homework. Her mom worked in restaurants here in The City. Jenny would go with her mom to places like the bank to do the translation. Jenny was learning about life in the US in real time and for practical reasons. At my prompting, Jenny and I rap about all the awesome food in the Little Saigon area of the Tenderloin. I share the story of coming home from my trip to Vietnam and eating at Turtle Tower right away because I missed the food of that incredible country. Jenny lived in the Tenderloin through all her public school days in San Francisco. When her paternal grandmother passed away, she went back to China to clean out her home, as we've mentioned. And that's when Jenny and other members of her family started finding items—military yen, rice-rationing coupons—that pointed to life spent under occupation. Back home, Jenny had found a decent job after college, but was feeling stuck. The revelation of her grandmother's lived experience was a light bulb. It was around this time that Jenny realized a massive hole in her US education. Why didn't she learn about the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, for example? Most of the emphasis was on the war in Europe, with Pearl Harbor and later the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki being the main subjects of the history of war in the Asian theater. In her own words, Jenny went "into a deep rabbit hole" to learn those untold stories. Her first stop was the library, where she discovered books like The Rape of Nanking by Iris Chang and The Rising Sun by John Toland. The more she learned, the more she sought existing nonprofits she could join forces with to amplify the stories of the Japanese occupation of China. To her dismay, there weren't any. It was around 2012 or 2013, and Jenny figured that she already knew how to live without much income. And so, she decided to start her own company—a nonprofit dedicated to getting those stories out to the world. Pacific Atrocities Education was born. Check back Thursday for Part 2 with Jenny Chan. We recorded this episode at Fort Mason in April 2026. Photography by Jeff Hunt

In this episode, we discuss one of the most dangerous and important topics in the world: What does uranium enrichment mean? And when can the peaceful use of nuclear energy turn into military use? Dr. Tarek explains the stages of enrichment in a simple way, why reaching 90% enrichment is considered extremely dangerous, and how countries and international agencies monitor secret nuclear programs. The conversation also goes into the details of Iran's nuclear crisis, America's role in the escalation, Iran's nuclear facilities, and the difference between peaceful nuclear energy and nuclear weapons.

ONE OF THE most significant events in the history of the world took place in 1892, when a corrupt political hack named James Lotan managed to land a cushy government job as the head of the customs inspection service for the Port of Portland. Believe it or not, Lotan's landing that job led directly to Pearl Harbor and eventually Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and indirectly to the defeat of Nazi Germany in Europe. Not bad for a small-time white-collar criminal in a tiny backwater seaport town on the far side of the world, eh? I realize you may be a bit skeptical of this claim. Bear with me while I unpack it and prove it to you, along with the strong possibility that most of us owe our lives and the continued existence of human civilization to James Lotan and the sleazy little band of well-heeled drug smugglers and human traffickers who worked with and for him, on the Portland waterfront in the early 1890s....

Få tekniska landvinningar har präglat ett århundrade på samma sätt som kärnvapnen präglade 1900-talet. Efter Trinitytestet den 16 juli 1945 och de ödesdigra bombningarna av Hiroshima (6 augusti 1945) och Nagasaki (9 augusti 1945) vändes stormakternas militära planering upp och ner – och världen blev inte riktigt sig lik.Som ett traumatiserat kollektiv reagerade världssamfundet först med tvekan, oro och bestörtning – och så småningom även med en sorts acceptans. Vad gör man med ett vapen som kan förinta en fiende, men som samtidigt är svårt att värja sig mot?I reprisen av avsnitt 27 av Militärhistoriepodden samtalar historikern Martin Hårdstedt och idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved om 1900-talets kärnvapenutveckling och dess betydelse för militärhistoria.Än i dag finns kluvenheten kvar. Kärnvapnen byggdes in i stormakternas arsenaler och förändrade taktik, strategi och doktrin – men de kom aldrig att användas i krig efter 1945. I stället blev de i praktiken testade och politiskt signalerade: en yttersta maktresurs som skulle avskräcka snarare än avfyras.Hur kunde det bli så? Nådde mänskligheten en teknisk slutpunkt när möjligheten att förinta sig själv blev verklig? Hur ska vi förstå den massiva upprustningen, bärsystemens utveckling och de doktriner som växte fram? Finns historiska paralleller – eller är kärnvapnen en unik företeelse i mänsklighetens militära historia?Med start i Manhattanprojektet diskuteras kärnvapnens tekniska utveckling, olika presidenters syn på vapnet, försöken att legitimera kärnvapen i säkerhetspolitiken, doktrinerna “massive retaliation” och “mutually assured destruction (MAD)”, samt de många bärsystemen och deras betydelse för stormakternas positioner i kalla krigets komplexa politiska landskap. Frågorna hänger kvar i luften.Bild: Svampmolnet efter Castle Bravo – USA:s kraftigaste kärnvapenprov (15 megaton) – vid Bikiniatollen den 1 mars 1954.

  The development of the B-29 Superfortress began in 1939 following a clandestine meeting between General Hap Arnold and Charles Lindbergh, who warned of Germany's growing bomber fleets. The project aimed for air supremacy through a four-engine, high-altitude strategic bomber that far surpassed the capabilities of the B-17 or B-24. However, the B-29 was incredibly complex and "buggy," featuring new technologies like pressurized cabins and digitally controlled gun turrets. Production was plagued by technical failures, including engine fires and stall-outs that claimed the life of a leading test pilot. Bill Knudsen played a critical role in the "Battle of Omaha," driving the assembly lines forward and insisting on modifications as the planes were finished. By 1943, nearly 40% of the workforce at these plants consisted of women. Ultimately, the B-29 became the most expensive project of the war, carrying the atomic bomb to Hiroshima and ending the conflict in the Pacific. (3/4)

Mothers of Magic: Perdita Finn on How to Summon Your Ancestors and Reclaim the Mothering You Never Had

Medium Curious

Ready to feel all the feelings? Sarah and Jane sit down with author and mystic Perdita Finn on the eve of the launch of her new book, Mothers of Magic: Summoning the Wisdom of Our Ancestors — and the timing feels nothing short of divinely arranged. Perdita is also the author of Take Back the Magic: Conversations with the Unseen World, and this episode picks up right where that book left off: the dead are not gone, they are available to help us.  What unfolds is one of the most resonant conversations Medium Curious has ever had. Perdita brings her gift for poetic, grounded storytelling to questions that couldn't feel more urgent: What does it mean to be un-mothered in a culture designed to make mothers fail? How do we reclaim the grandmothers who were silenced, reduced to diagnoses, cornered by circumstance? And how do we connect with them now, across the veil, when we need them most? Perdita shares the story of her grandmother Nellie — a woman she only knew as a stroke victim, but who she discovered, through diaries found after her mother's death, to be a complicated, extraordinary soul worth claiming. She talks about the forget-me-nots blooming in her yard three weeks early on book launch day, carried from England to America by her grandmother, and what it feels like to offer this book to her. The conversation moves through the lost village of mothering — how before civilization, a mother was anyone who cared, regardless of gender or biology — to the very practical question of what to do with all of it: the grief, the rage, the overwhelm, the headlines. Perdita's answer is to delegate to the dead. She opens every morning with her worries and calls on her team on the other side, from her late dentist to the survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, trusting that the dead can hold what we cannot. This episode will leave you crying, laughing, and reaching for your own grandmother's hand across whatever distance separates you. Key Takeaways The dead are still available to us. Perdita opens every morning by calling on her team on the other side — ancestors, teachers, friends, even those we've lost to historical atrocity — and asks them to help carry what feels too heavy to hold alone. This isn't metaphor. It's a daily practice with real effects. Our grandmothers were more than the stories we were told about them. Many of us inherited a reduced version of who our grandmothers were — shaped by trauma, mental illness labels, silence, and the limits of the era they lived in. Their diaries, their objects, their dreams can give them back to us as full human beings. Fretting is a form of prayer. Perdita reframes worry not as weakness but as creativity at work — an act of turning something over, wearing away at a problem, spinning new possibilities into being. Our anxious minds are also our most generative ones. Before civilization, a mother was an adult who cared. Mothering wasn't defined by gender or biology. It was communal, expansive, and distributed across a whole circle of people. Reclaiming that definition is not just healing — it's resistance. We are all psychic, and we have been trained out of it. Perdita's own precognitive dreams were met with terror by her mother, and she shut them down. When we silence those gifts in children — and in ourselves — we lose our most essential line of communication with the unseen world. The goal isn't just your lifetime. Perdita encourages thinking in terms of 49 generations — roughly 1,200 years. What prayer would you want to still be praying then? What healing are you beginning now that you may not live to see complete? Quotable Moments "What we long for are the arms and the embrace of a circle of mothers — a circle of grandmothers, a circle of beings who know who we are and want us to be who we are." "If we weren't adored by a group of women who loved us in life, just know: you are adored by beings beyond measure who love you from the other side." "We need less children in the world and more mothers." "A knot, an obstacle, a problem, a rift — becomes an opportunity for magic with the dead." "If we remember we're all each other's mothers, we're going to stop clear-cutting the forest and mountaintop mining and putting each other in solitary confinement."

In 1945, tens of thousands of occupied Koreans were forced to live in Japan, primarily as impoverished workers. When the United States dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, 70,000 Koreans were impacted. Though they and their succeeding generations have been severely harmed by the exposure to radiation, they still have not received recognition, an apology or compensation for their suffering. A delegation of atomic bomb victims just completed a tour of the United States and testified before the United Nations. Clearing the FOG speaks with Shim Jin-tae, Han Jeongsun and a representative of Solidarity for Peace and Reunification of Korea (SPARK) about their experiences and their struggle for a nuclear-free world.

¿Qué lleva a un ingeniero a arriesgar millones en una solución que nadie ha probado antes? La palabra "ingeniero" viene del latín ingenium, que significa "capacidad mental para inventar". En este vídeo rendimos homenaje a esos rebeldes que, entre 1960 y 1990, decidieron que el camino marcado no era el único posible. Desde motores de helicóptero hasta chasis de plástico, recorremos 20 ejemplos de que, aunque el atrevimiento no garantiza el éxito comercial, sí asegura un lugar en la historia de las rarezas mecánicas. Los 20 "rebeldes" que desafiaron la lógica: -Amphicar 770 (1961): El coche-lancha que demostró que la estanqueidad total era posible en una cadena de montaje. -Chrysler Turbine (1963): Un motor sin pistones capaz de quemar desde gasóleo hasta perfume o tequila. -Oldsmobile Toronado (1966): El desafío de mandar el par de un V8 de 7 litros exclusivamente a las ruedas delanteras. -Jensen FF (1966): Mucho antes que Audi, este GT inglés ya montaba tracción total permanente y ABS mecánico de aviación. -Mazda Cosmo Sport (1967): El milagro de Hiroshima que salvó a la marca gracias al perfeccionamiento del motor rotativo de dos rotores. -Citroën M35 (1969): El laboratorio rodante con motor Wankel que Citroën intentó comprar y destruir para no dar soporte técnico. -Bond Bug (1970): La "cuña de queso" de tres ruedas con cúpula de avión en lugar de puertas. -Clan Crusader (1971): Un deportivo sin chasis metálico; un monocasco integral de fibra de vidrio increíblemente ligero. -Maserati Bora (1971): El superdeportivo italiano que adoptó la alta presión hidráulica de Citroën para frenos y pedales. -Monica 560 (1973): El renacimiento del lujo francés con motor V8 de competición, truncado por la crisis del petróleo. -Aston Martin Lagonda (1976): El coche que quiso vivir en el futuro con un cuadro digital y pantallas que la tecnología de 1976 no podía soportar. -Lancia Gamma (1976): Una joya con motor bóxer que se autodestruía si girabas la dirección a tope al arrancar en frío. -Panther 6 (1977): Un descapotable de seis ruedas inspirado en la F1 con un motor V8 biturbo de 8.2 litros. -Aston Martin Bulldog (1979): Una cuña extrema con cinco faros ocultos diseñada para pulverizar récords de velocidad. -Cadillac Fleetwood V-8-6-4 (1981): El primer intento masivo de desconexión de cilindros, fallido por la lentitud de la informática de la época. -Honda City Turbo II "Bulldog" (1983): El concepto de movilidad total que incluía una moto plegable (Motocompo) en el maletero. -BMW Z1 (1989): El roadster de paneles intercambiables y puertas que bajaban verticalmente hacia el suelo. -Vector W8 (1989): Tecnología aeroespacial, pantallas de caza F-15 y materiales exóticos en un superdeportivo indomable. -Nissan S-Cargo (1989): La furgoneta de diseño retro que demostró que la funcionalidad podía ser simpática y diferente. -Cizeta-Moroder V16T (1991): El exceso absoluto de un motor V16 transversal y cuatro faros escamoteables. El legado de la originalidad Aunque muchos de estos modelos fracasaron en los concesionarios, fueron laboratorios rodantes esenciales. Sin el Variomatic de DAF no entenderíamos los cambios eficientes de hoy, y sin el Jensen FF, la tracción total seguiría relegada a los tractores. Ser original es un ejercicio de funambulismo: si aciertas, cambias el mundo; si fallas, hundes la empresa. Pero en Garaje Hermético preferimos a los que se atrevieron a fallar de forma espectacular antes que a los que se limitaron a copiar lo establecido. ¿Cuál de estas locuras técnicas es tu favorita? ¿Conocías el error de diseño del Lancia Gamma?

Listen as they walk through Augustine's foundational framework from City of God, Thomas Aquinas's expansion into seven criteria, and how Scripture from Romans 13 to Deuteronomy 20 lays out God's design for justice, government, and the protection of innocent life.Hear how the seven criteria — legitimate authority, just cause, right intention, last resort, proportionality, discrimination, and reasonable chance of success — apply to the Crusades, modern Israel, the conflict with Iran, and even Hiroshima. Perfect for your morning commute, workout, or any moment you need to think biblically about real-world conflict.You'll Learn:✅ Why Christian pacifism doesn't hold up to Scripture✅ The proper context for "turn the other cheek"✅ The biblical foundation for self-defense and protecting family✅ How to evaluate any war using the seven-criteria framework✅ Why Augustine and Aquinas still matter for today's ChristiansSubscribe and follow for new episodes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 7 AM CT.

It's 1970 and Japan is still rebuilding from the scars of war. Deep in the misty Chugoku Mountains of Hiroshima Prefecture, on a lonely road hugging the edge of Mount Hiba, a truck driver is heading home under a blood-red sunset. His headlights cut through the fog… and something steps out. This is no bear nor is it a man but rather a hulking, ape-like shadow – five feet tall, covered in dark bristly fur, with glaring intelligent eyes that lock onto his. It crosses the road in two heart-stopping seconds and vanishes into the trees. He slams the brakes when the stench hits him – rotting meat and wet earth. That night, he tells anyone who'll listen so that within weeks, the entire region is gripped by “Hibagon fever.”For five years, the Bigfoot of Hiroshima – the creature locals named the Hibagon – haunted these mountains. It never hurt a soul… but it refused to stay hidden.Today, join us as we drive within the mists of Japan to relive the true encounters that terrified a people… and left a mystery that cryptid hunters are still chasing fifty years later.Facebook Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/544933724571696Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withinthemistpodcast/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@withinthemistpodcast1977 Hosted on Acast.

April 26, 2026 marks the 40th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster—one of the most catastrophic man-made events in history. The explosion released more than 400 times the radioactive fallout of the Hiroshima bomb, leaving a lasting scar on the environment and on human lives. In this episode, we reflect on how Chernobyl was not just a technical failure, but a profound moral one—where flawed systems, suppressed truth, and human error converged with devastating consequences. Yet amid the chaos, stories of courage emerged: firefighters, plant workers, and ordinary citizens who risked—and often gave—their lives to contain the disaster. Michael Snyder offers sobering insights into what Chernobyl reveals about the trajectory of human systems and the vulnerabilities we still face today. Join us as we explore the lessons of Chernobyl—lessons about leadership, accountability, resilience, and the enduring capacity for courage when it is needed most.

L'objectif est clair : attirer et écraser les forces du Viet Minh. Mais le plan tourne au désastre. Les troupes françaises se retrouvent encerclées, pilonnées sans relâche, coupées de leurs approvisionnements. La chute semble inévitable.C'est dans ce contexte extrême que les États-Unis envisagent une option radicale : utiliser la puissance aérienne — et même, selon certains scénarios, l'arme nucléaire — pour sauver leur allié.Pourquoi une idée aussi extrême ? D'abord pour une raison stratégique. En pleine guerre froide, Washington voit dans le conflit indochinois un front contre l'expansion du communisme en Asie. Le Viet Minh est soutenu par la Chine et indirectement par l'Union soviétique. Pour les États-Unis, laisser tomber la France pourrait déclencher un effet domino dans toute la région.Une opération est alors étudiée : “Vulture”. Elle prévoit des bombardements massifs à l'aide de bombardiers américains pour briser l'encerclement. Dans certaines discussions internes, une hypothèse encore plus radicale est évoquée : utiliser quelques bombes nucléaires tactiques pour détruire les positions du Viet Minh autour de la vallée.Mais cette option pose des problèmes majeurs. D'abord, elle est militairement incertaine. Le Viet Minh est dispersé, retranché dans des positions difficiles à cibler précisément. Une frappe nucléaire risquerait de ne pas produire l'effet décisif attendu, tout en causant des destructions massives.Ensuite, le risque politique est énorme. Moins de dix ans après Hiroshima et Nagasaki, utiliser à nouveau l'arme nucléaire — cette fois dans une guerre coloniale — aurait un impact mondial considérable. Le président Dwight D. Eisenhower est particulièrement prudent. Il refuse d'agir sans le soutien clair des alliés, notamment du Royaume-Uni, qui s'y oppose fermement.Enfin, il y a la crainte d'une escalade. Une intervention directe, surtout nucléaire, pourrait entraîner une réaction de la Chine ou de l'URSS, transformant un conflit local en guerre mondiale.Résultat : les États-Unis renoncent. Aucune intervention directe n'a lieu. Isolée, la France capitule le 7 mai 1954. Cette défaite marque la fin de la présence française en Indochine et ouvre une nouvelle phase de tensions dans la région.Au fond, cet épisode révèle à quel point la guerre froide a poussé les grandes puissances à envisager l'impensable. Mais il montre aussi qu'au bord du basculement, certaines lignes — même fragiles — n'ont pas été franchies. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.
