Pope Leo XIV declared on Saturday that achieving "coexistence marked by dignity and peace" was entirely feasible as he encountered migrants in Paris, preceding a monumental outdoor religious ceremony anticipated to draw hundreds of thousands to the legendary Champs-Élysées.The inaugural American pontiff is undertaking a four-day French visit while the nation prepares for upcoming elections to succeed centrist leader Emmanuel Macron, with anti-immigration far-right movements positioning themselves for a potential electoral breakthrough.During the second day of the first papal visit to this European country in nearly two decades, the spiritual leader of approximately 1.4 billion Catholics will preside over a prayer service beginning at 3:00 pm (1300 GMT). Approximately 600,000 attendees were projected for the gathering at Place de la Concorde extending along the adjacent Champs-Élysées. While President Macron will remain absent from the ceremony, multiple presidential contenders, including far-right figure Marine Le Pen and centrist candidate Edouard Philippe, have pledged their participation.Earlier that day, the pontiff visited Maison Bakhita, an organization dedicated to assisting migrants and refugees. “I am pleased to begin this second day in Paris with you, in a house that bears witness to the whole city that it is possible to encounter one another and to live together in dignity and peace,” he said.He was scheduled to engage with individuals of Christian and Islamic backgrounds originating from Algeria, Belarus, Iraq, and Côte d'Ivoire, according to the organization's announcement, characterizing the visit as a "statement" preceding the electoral period.“The pope is coming to tell the French that, whatever our political convictions, we share a common humanity and a right to dignity,”The pope has called the treatment of migrants in the United States “extremely disrespectful” and said, “we have to look for ways of treating people humanely.”His Holiness Pope Leo XIV's significant four-day apostolic mission throughout France has generated profound spiritual fervor and jubilation among several hundred thousand devoted Catholic faithful.

Maurizio Fantoni Minnella"Che cos'è una biblioteca?"Ogni biblioteca nasce da un desiderio impossibile: tenere insieme tutto ciò che è stato scritto, sottrarlo al tempo, renderlo di nuovo leggibile. Proprio per questo la sua storia è anche una storia di fragilità: i libri bruciano, si sbriciolano, vengono dimenticati, censurati, dispersi. Il percorso che segue attraversa sei luoghi, reali e immaginari, in cui la biblioteca si mostra per ciò che è davvero. Non è un deposito, ma un organismo vivo che chiede custodi.I. AlessandriaIl mito fondativo. Una città che voleva possedere il sapere del mondo e che, proprio per questo, ha consegnato alla memoria collettiva la sua perdita. Da allora ogni biblioteca porta in sé il ricordo di un incendio.II. BabeleBorges immagina una biblioteca infinita che contiene tutti i libri possibili, e in cui proprio per questo nessuno riesce a trovare quello che cerca. Altrove confessa di essersi sempre figurato il Paradiso come una specie di biblioteca. È lo sguardo da cui parte Fantoni Minnella: il suo documentario "Libri di sabbia" (2019) prende il titolo da un racconto borgesiano.III. Il desertoNell'Adrar mauritano, a Chinguetti, Ouadane, Tichitt e Oualata, ci sono antiche città carovaniere oggi patrimonio Unesco. Lì manoscritti medievali e libri a stampa arrivati dal Cairo e dalla Mecca sono custoditi da secoli nelle biblioteche private delle famiglie, tramandati di padre in figlio. Sabbia, termiti e desertificazione li minacciano. Il film di Fantoni Minnella nasce da un gesto di ascolto, «Mi sono messo in ascolto del deserto», e dal timore che finiscano come Timbuctù.IV. Il rogoIl 10 maggio 1933 a Berlino e nelle città tedesche si bruciano i libri in piazza. Ogni anno l'Associazione italiana biblioteche ricorda quella notte con la rassegna "Libri salvati", letture pubbliche contro la cancellazione della memoria. Salvare un libro è un atto politico. Lo sapeva Victor Hugo, che nel 1872 dedica un poema alla biblioteca incendiata durante la Comune.V. La biblioteca di casaSono scaffali costruiti in una vita, disordinati, stratificati. La biblioteca privata è un autoritratto involontario, un diario scritto con i libri degli altri. Chi la guardasse senza conoscerci capirebbe molto di noi: dei viaggi, degli amori, delle ossessioni.VI. La sogliaInfine la biblioteca pubblica, luogo di accesso e di democrazia: l'unico spazio in cui chiunque può entrare, sedersi e leggere senza dover comprare nulla. Da qui torna la domanda di fondo del percorso: chi custodisce oggi i libri, e per chi?— Tu viens d'incendier la Bibliothèque ?— Oui.J'ai mis le feu là.— Mais c'est un crime inouï !«Hai appena incendiato la Biblioteca?» «Sì. Ci ho appiccato il fuoco.» «Ma è un crimine inaudito!» Il poema si chiude con la risposta dell'incendiario, che rovescia l'accusa: «Non so leggere».(Victor Hugo, "À qui la faute ?", da "L'Année terrible", 1872)There is no Frigate like a BookTo take us Lands away«Non c'è vascello come un libro per portarci in terre lontane.»(Emily Dickinson, 1873 circa, pubblicata postuma nel 1894)Maurizio Fantoni Minnella (Varese, 1959) è scrittore, saggista, critico cinematografico, documentarista e fotografo.

Algeria and Morocco have long been at odds, but recent diplomatic moves may signal a widening geopolitical split in North Africa. Hosts Alistair Taylor and Matthew Czekaj are joined by MEI Senior Fellow Intissar Fakir to unpack Algeria's decision to sever diplomatic ties with the United Arab Emirates and Morocco's warming relations with both the UAE and Israel. They also explore linkages between these diplomatic shifts and the Western Sahara conflict, Moroccan domestic concerns, particularly in light of this week's elections, as well as broader regional stability.   Read Intissar's latest article on the Moroccan elections here.   Recorded on September 23, 2026.

Algeria's complex colonial landscape serves as the backdrop for a deep dive into the intersection of race, Islam, and capitalism. Dr. Muriam Haleh Davis unravels how the French colonial state weaponized Islam as a racial category to structure economic inequalities.

In 2019, Sarah Aziza nearly lost her life after being hospitalized for an eating disorder. Along the process of recovery, Aziza begins to uncover her Palestinian roots. Daughter and granddaughter of Gazan refugees, The Hollow Half tells the story of three generations of Palestinian displacement and survival.rnrnWinner of the 2026 Anisfield-Wolf Book Award in Memoir, Aziza pens an innovative reckoning that weaves Arabic translation, hauntings, reporting, and geographies together in a stunning blend that asks-what does it mean to belong to a legacy of defiant survival?rnrnAnisfield-Wolf juror and historian Charles King writes, "Throughout The Hollow Half, Aziza weaves personal narrative with history and laces both with the revelatory beauty of the Arabic language. Words bear their own secrets, of lost lives and shadow ideas, of home, horrors, and healing."rnrnSarah Aziza is a Palestinian American writer, translator, and artist with roots in 'Ibdis and Deir al-Balah, Gaza. The recipient of a Fulbright fellowship and numerous grants from the Pulitzer Center for Crisis Reporting, she has lived and worked in Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Jordan, South Africa, the West Bank, and the United States.

For thousands of years, one country has stood at the crossroads of the Mediterranean, Africa, and the Sahara.  It has been ruled by Numidian kings, Romans, Arabs, Ottomans, and European.  Its modern independence came only after one of the most violent decolonization struggles in history, and that conflict still shapes the country today.

It's Wednesday, September 16th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Timothy Reed Algerian police arrested 12 Christians in worship service Police in Algeria, Africa arrested 12 Christians at a worship service earlier this month. Authorities accused them of conducting unauthorized, non-Muslim religious services. Under the country's laws, such unauthorized worship could be punished with heavy fines and long prison sentences. Over 50 Christians in Algeria have faced prosecution in similar cases in recent years. Morning Star News noted, “These cases … all attest to the persistence of a policy aimed at criminalizing the Christian faith and its structures within the country.” Please pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Algeria. Hebrews 13:3 says, “Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also.” Send a polite, 4-sentence note to the Algerian Ambassador to America, Sabri Boukadoum, urging him to ask the government to stop harassing Christians and allow them to worship Jesus Christ openly and freely. Send your letter to the Algerian Embassy, 2118 Kalorama Road NW, Washington, DC 20008. To get the correct spelling of his name and the full address, visit our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. 5.5 million Christians identify as Evangelical in United Kingdom The Evangelical Alliance UK released a survey on evangelicalism across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.  The survey recognized Evangelicals based on four ideas: devotion to the Bible as God's Word the centrality of the cross of Christ the belief that people must repent and turn to Christ, and the expression of the Gospel in evangelism and charitable work  People who hold evangelical beliefs and identify as Evangelical number 5.5 million in the United Kingdom. They make up about eight percent of the population. Evangelicals are now the majority among practicing Christians in the country. They are also young with over 40 percent under the age of 35. U.S. military announced space weapons On Monday, the U.S. military announced for the first time it has weapons in space.  Secretary of the Air Force Troy Meink said, “The United States now has in-orbit, space-controlled weapons capable of defending the joint force against hostile adversary action.” He said the weapons use both traditional explosives as well as electronic warfare. They also have integrations with artificial intelligence.  EPA announced chemical abortion drugs in water The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency launched a new study last week about pollutants in drinking water. The study will trace and track over 1,400 substances. These include mifepristone and misoprostol which are used in chemical abortions. Kristan Hawkins with Students for Life of America said, “For almost a year now, Students for Life spearheaded a grassroots campaign calling for water testing, as the deregulation of chemical abortion pills . . . means that abortion water pollution exists nationwide.” Women are told to take the Abortion Kill Pills and flush everything directly into our water supply. About 700,000 chemical abortions each year send long-lasting abortion drugs and human remains into America's wastewater systems. Mifepristone blocks progesterone, thus starving the baby. This drug has long-lasting metabolites that remain in the water because the water treatment plants are generally not capable of filtering out these chemicals. In addition to these chemicals, the water systems were never designed for the resulting 30-40 tons of human remains which becomes hazardous medical waste! By contrast, hospitals and abortion mills are not allowed to flush medical waste down the drain for good reason. Women more satisfied with U.S. church than men The American Bible Society released the latest chapter of its “State of Bible: USA 2026” report.  The survey found that only 49 percent of self-identifying Christians attend church monthly or more. Of those who attend regularly, most said they were satisfied with how their churches are ministering to them. Across generations, women tended to express greater satisfaction with their church than men. Young men in particular expressed the lowest satisfaction with their church. Ephesians 4:11-12 says of the church: “And He Himself gave some [to be] apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.” Man who won U.S. Open didn't realize he won at first And finally, the U.S. Open Tennis Championships Men's Final was played in New York on Sunday, with eight-seeded American Ben Shelton facing top seeded Alexander Zverev from Germany.  The United States had not had a man win the U.S. Open since 2003, a 23-year drought. Shelton, who had already upset the two-seed in his way to the finals, was looking for his first major title. But, the Americans will have to wait another year, as Zverev came through to win the match in four sets: 6-3, 7-6, 5-7, and 6-2. The best part? According to Yahoo Sports, Zverev did not realize he had actually won at first (video)! Listen to the announcers. ANNOUNCER 1: “He doesn't even know he's won. There you go. He really didn't know.” ANNOUNCER 2: “He was so focused in on just holding serve, he didn't know he was at the finish line. And he finishes off Ben Shelton in four sets, and wins his second major of the year, his first U.S. Open.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, September 16th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Chris Chavez and Kyle Merber recap the final day of World Ultimates, including an American sprint sweep, a 45.98 in the 400m hurdles, and Josh Kerr adding a 1500m title to his mile world record. The biggest headlines:- Melissa Jefferson-Wooden and Kenny Bednarek each leave Budapest with $300,000 after sweeping the 100m and 200m titles. MJW ran 21.47 in the women's 200m — the fourth-fastest time in history, into a 0.6 m/s headwind — to beat 2024 Olympic gold medalist Gabby Thomas (21.77). Only Florence Griffith Joyner's 1988 world record (21.34) and two Shericka Jackson runs have been faster. MJW also swept both events at the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo.- Kenny Bednarek won the men's 200m in a personal-best 19.52 — becoming the seventh-fastest man in history — beating 2024 Olympic gold medalist Letsile Tebogo. It's the same time Noah Lyles ran to win the 2025 World title in Tokyo. Bednarek said afterward: "Performance-wise and execution-wise, I give myself an A-plus." Two 200m Olympic silvers deep into his career, and the biggest race wins of that career came in Budapest.- Alison Dos Santos ran 45.98 to win the men's 400m hurdles — the third-fastest time in history, and just 0.18 off his own newly-set world record from Zurich two weeks earlier. Rai Benjamin was second in 46.40 (also doubling from the 400m final on Saturday). Karsten Warholm was third in 46.78. Dos Santos, Benjamin, and Warholm now own the 37 fastest times in the event's history. It is the deepest three-way rivalry in the sport right now.- Josh Kerr won the men's 1500m in 3:29.35, holding off Australia's Cameron Myers in his first major championship since breaking the mile world record on July 18. Americans finished third (Hobbs Kessler), fourth (Cole Hocker, the 2024 Olympic champion), and fifth (Yared Nuguse) all within three hundredths of each other.- Djamel Sedjati of Algeria won the men's 800m in 1:41.91, overtaking Olympic gold medalist Emmanuel Wanyonyi and then Marco Arop in the final 100 meters. Jasmine Jones took the women's 400m hurdles in 52.45 for the biggest win of her career — Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone did not race this season after having her daughter Savannah in July.- Plus the field events: Gianmarco Tamberi cleared 2.37m to beat JuVaughn Harrison in the high jump — the same height Tamberi and Mutaz Barshim cleared to share Olympic gold in Tokyo. Sri Lanka's Rumesh Pathirage won the men's javelin for the biggest track and field title in Sri Lankan history. The US won the mixed 4x400m relay (Chris Bailey, Alexis Holmes, Jacory Patterson, Aaliyah Butler).____________Stay tuned for more live coverage from the World Ultimate Championships in the days to come and make sure you're subscribed to the ⁠⁠⁠⁠CITIUS MAG YouTube channel ⁠⁠⁠⁠so you don't miss any of our interviews.

Algeria's pivotal role as a historic center for revolutionary and independence movements is frequently overlooked, leaving a gap in public understanding of its complex history. Architectural historian Samia Henni unpacks how the French army utilized architecture and urban planning as tools of counterinsurgency and control. The discussion exposes the shocking and lasting realities of colonial toxicity, detailing how France conducted underground and atmospheric nuclear weapons testing in the Algerian Sahara.

Si è votato ieri per il rinnovo del parlamento locale nello Stato federato della Sassonia-Anhalt, nell'est della Germania. Secondo i risultati definitivi, il partito di estrema destra Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) è al primo posto con il 43,8% dei voti, portandolo a un passo dal conquistare il potere a livello regionale per la prima volta dalla Seconda Guerra Mondiale (Guardian). Favorito da un'alta affluenza alle urne (il 76,5%), il partito anti-immigrazione vicino alla Russia ha ottenuto 39 seggi nel parlamento regionale, appena sotto la soglia dei 42 necessari per governare in autonomia (Ap). Quanto al settore automotive, il fatto che il 61% degli operai tedeschi abbia votato per AfD testimonia che la crisi di Volkswagen sia finita per diventare un potente acceleratore per il consenso del partito di estrema destra. Secondo gli analisti, infatti, il ridimensionamento del grande gruppo automobilistico avrebbe indirettamente influito sul risultato elettorale trasmettendo in primis un senso di sfiducia nella forza dell'economia tedesca e di conseguenza nei partiti tradizionali. Lo spieghiamo con Daniel Gros, direttore dell’Institute for european policy making della Bocconi. L'Opec+ lascia invariati i livelli di produzione di petrolioIeri i sette Paesi Opec+, Arabia Saudita, Russia, Iraq, Kuwait, Kazakistan, Algeria e Oman, hanno deciso di mantenere inalterati i livelli di produzione richiesti per settembre e per ottobre 2026. Lo comunica una nota dell'organizzazione diffusa dopo la riunione virtuale tra i membri dell'organizzazione tenutasi per esaminare le condizioni e le prospettive del mercato globale. Si tratta di un'inversione di rotta nella strategia del cartello dopo sei mesi di aumenti, decisi a partire da marzo per fronteggiare gli effetti della chiusura dello Stretto di Hormuz. Ne parliamo con Alessandro Plateroti, Direttore editoriale UCapital.com Borsa: vendite su Tim e Poste nella settimana decisiva per l’OpasOggi a Piazza Affari si accendono i riflettori sui titoli coinvolti nell’operazione tra Poste Italiane e Tim. A pesare sono soprattutto le vendite su Tim e Poste Italiane, che cedono rispettivamente il 4% e il 3,75%, proprio mentre entra nel vivo la settimana decisiva per l’Opas. Oggi l’amministratore delegato di Tim Pietro Labriola e i dirigenti con responsabilità strategiche della società hanno portato in adesione le azioni detenute all’offerta pubblica di acquisto e scambio totalitaria volontaria promossa da Poste Italiane. Lo rende noto Tim ricordando che, come già comunicato al mercato lo scorso 18 luglio, «il corrispettivo dell’offerta è stato ritenuto congruo dal punto di vista finanziario dal consiglio di amministrazione del Gruppo, che ne ha valutato positivamente il razionale e le prospettive industriali». Facciamo un'analisi con Antonella Olivieri, Il Sole 24 ore. Casa, cresce la platea di chi vive in una casa di proprietà, specialmente fra i redditi più fragiliContinua a crescere in Italia la platea di chi vive in una casa di proprietà. Secondo l’ultima analisi di Confedilizia, tra il 2019 e il 2025 la quota è passata dal 78,8% all’82,6%. Il dato più significativo riguarda però le fasce economicamente più fragili. Nel 20% della popolazione meno abbiente, la quota di proprietari è salita dal 54% del 2019 al 60,8% del 2025: è proprio tra i redditi più bassi che negli ultimi sei anni si registra l’incremento maggiore. A crescere è anche la presenza dei giovani sul mercato della proprietà. Nel 2025 la quota dei giovani proprietari ha raggiunto il 35,8%, rispetto al 28,1% del 2019, anche sulla spinta delle agevolazioni e delle garanzie statali per gli under 36. Parallelamente si è abbassata l’età media di chi accende un mutuo per acquistare casa. Approfondiamo il tema con Giorgio Spaziani Testa, presidente Confedilizia.

Jean Duffy moved over 20 times before high school, including time in Algeria and Spain, and didn't discover her love of sports until adulthood. After years of triathlons, she found her true passion on the soccer field, where the camaraderie of the game kept her coming back. That passion eventually led her to the remarkable Soccer Grannies of South Africa, a group of women ages 40-80 years old who started playing in skirts and who continue to prove that age is no barrier to competition, community, or joy. Jean chronicled their story in her award-winning book “Soccer Grannies: The South African Women Who Inspire the World” and donates all proceeds to support the women and their health and soccer initiatives in South Africa.To purchase the book and show your support, visit https://jeanduffy.com/Send us Fan Mail

In today's episode of Trending Middle East, US President Donald Trump vows to retaliate after Iran launches missiles at American military bases in Jordan. Meanwhile, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urges G20 finance ministers to join Washington's campaign to cut off Iran's financial lifelines. The EU backs the move, while the UAE has already severed trade and financial ties with Iran. In Iraq, a court has sentenced a member of the Kataib Hezbollah militia to 15 years in prison over the kidnapping of American journalist Shelly Kittleson in March. Baghdad is intensifying efforts to bring Iran-backed armed groups under state control. Wildfires that killed 12 people in Algeria have prompted President Abdelmadjid Tebboune to seek the introduction of the death penalty for arsonists. Several people have been arrested over the fires. And in the UAE, Indian and Lebanese residents have been warned about scammers posing as officials and agents in an attempt to steal personal information.

Lo Stretto di Hormuz torna a bruciare: gli Stati Uniti bombardano l'isola iraniana di Larak, Teheran risponde colpendo basi americane in Giordania e la tregua si rivela quello che forse è sempre stata, una pausa tra due attacchi.A Gaza, oltre l'80 per cento delle reti idriche e fognarie è distrutto, mentre in Cisgiordania aumentano i bambini uccisi e l'impunità continua a presentarsi in uniforme. In Venezuela, l'accordo sul petrolio consegna a Washington un controllo senza precedenti sulle riserve del paese. E poi l'Ucraina con il clown Pimpa in collegamento, il naufragio al largo di Cipro, la rivolta militare in Niger, il disastro in Nepal e il preside che, decidendo in pochi secondi, ha salvato novecento bambini.Questo e molto altro nel notiziario Mondo di Radio Bullets, a cura di Barbara Schiavulli.

Many Kurds across the region feel angered by the Aug. 25 announcement by Syrian Democratic Forces commander-in-chief Mazlum Kobane that the force has been formally dissolved. Ibrahim Hamidi, a veteran Syrian journalist and editor-in-chief of Al Majalla, argues that the push for Kurdish rights is by no means over, and that Kobane's new role as an advisor to Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa will present the Kurds with fresh opportunities.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

He held three Michelin stars for thirty years and cooked for kings, presidents, and Hemingway — yet almost nobody outside serious culinary history has heard his name. This episode tells the story of Alexandre Dumaine, the chef whose restaurant, La Côte d'Or in the small Burgundian town of Saulieu, was once called a national shrine of French gastronomy.We trace his path from a working-class boyhood in Digoin, through a punishing apprenticeship in Vichy, Cannes, and Paris, and a decorated stint on the Western Front in the First World War, to the decade in Algeria that shaped the chef he would become. Along the way we meet his wife, Jeanne Dumaine, the front-of-house partner without whom, by every account, the story doesn't work the same way.At the heart of the episode is Saulieu itself: thirty years of three Michelin stars, a "less is more" philosophy built on reduced sauces and the finest Bresse chicken, and a clientele that ran from King Alfonso XIII to Salvador Dalí to a lone truck driver treated with exactly the same care. We close with one of the most generous successions in French culinary history, and the legacy Dumaine left behind at Saulieu.Fabulously Delicious is the podcast for anyone who loves French food, French culinary history, and the stories behind the plates.

Tensions between Turkey and Israel have been spiraling over Gaza, the Eastern Mediterranean, the Horn of Africa and above all in Syria. Fears of a confrontation between the US allies grew this week after Israel bombed a military airport near the Turkish border, saying Turkish forces were about to move in. Israeli analyst Danny Citrinowicz believes that with no active deconfliction mechanism in place a hot clash is imminent if not inevitable.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Space Show Presents Lisa La Bonte, Sunday, 8-2-26.Quick summaryThe Sunday Space Show featured Lisa LaBonte discussing the rapid growth of national space agencies worldwide, with approximately 90 countries now having space programs primarily in emerging and developing markets. LaBonte presented data showing how these agencies are focused on using space for economic development, infrastructure building, and addressing national needs rather than pursuing prestige missions. The discussion covered how these emerging space nations are collaborating with established programs like China's lunar missions, using services like Starlink for connectivity, and developing their own launch capabilities. Participants explored topics including IP protection challenges for foreign investors, the role of STEM education in these countries, and how political risks affect business opportunities. The conversation also touched on cultural differences in how failure is perceived in different countries and the varying levels of public interest in space exploration.Detailed Summary:The conversation focused on space agencies, where Lisa explained that approximately 80-90 countries have space agencies, including both national agencies and international consortiums like ESA. Lisa presented on the growth of national space agencies, highlighting how these agencies have expanded exponentially in emerging markets over the past decade. She explained that these space programs serve as economic development tools, providing infrastructure, connectivity, and job opportunities, particularly in Africa where they are transformational rather than just supportive of growth. Lisa noted significant international collaborations emerging, including a first-of-its-kind partnership between the African Space Agency and China for lunar exploration at the South Pole.Our guest discussed the growing global space economy, noting that most countries are embracing private enterprises for economic development rather than state-driven approaches, with some implementing startup contests and incubators. STEM education was brought up by telling us how it is being integrated into school systems in various countries, with Bahrain specifically highlighting this initiative. Lisa emphasized that while space programs are driven by national goals rather than profit motives, they are building infrastructure that will eventually support economic development and generate revenue through tax dollars and other funding sources.Lisa provided a detailed overview of space activities across different continents, focusing on Africa as an example where countries like Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, South Africa, Kenya, and Nigeria are engaging in various space applications including Earth observation, agriculture monitoring, and communications. Dr. Ajay raised concerns about declining U.S. interest in space compared to growing interest in emerging markets, questioning how to participate in these opportunities. Our guest responded that while U.S. space interest may be declining, NASA remains influential globally and emerging markets like the UAE have significant budgets, noting a $34 billion total budget for UAE space initiatives.We discussed how political competition between nations, particularly between the US and China, does not significantly impact space collaboration, as countries prioritize their national space program goals over political alliances. She provided examples of countries like UAE working with both US and Chinese programs simultaneously and noted that developing nations are primarily focused on establishing sovereign space capabilities rather than relying on others. She also explained that many developing and emerging nations are currently using Starlink for satellite connectivity, though the long-term strategy for building their own satellite capabilities remains uncertain.Lisa emphasized that the US needs to recognize it is not the only player in the space industry and should collaborate with emerging and developing nations. He noted that countries like China and India have been active in space for some time, and China has been particularly engaged in infrastructure development in Africa through initiatives like the Belt and Road. Lisa expressed hope that NASA would leverage its global reputation to partner with these nations, particularly given that over 60 countries have signed up for the Artemis Accords. The discussion also touched on the potential for space-based solar power and AI integration in these countries' space programs, though Carnegie admitted he was not an expert on these topics.Dr. Ajay inquired about Saudi Arabia's space initiatives following his recent visit. The group discussed how emerging nations are approaching space, explaining that while human spaceflight is a goal for many countries, most are still in early stages and focusing on basic satellite launches rather than aggressive defense programs. Lisa advised that any space investment should prioritize strong IP protection mechanisms and legal frameworks in the target country, noting that UAE lacks adequate IP protection despite its space activities. The discussion concluded with Joe raising a question about whether national space programs could generate national pride and encourage youth interest in engineering and technical fields.We talked about the varying levels of engineering talent across different countries, particularly highlighting robust STEM education in Saudi Arabia and UAE due to their oil and gas industries. He explained that while these countries produce skilled engineers, the lack of established infrastructure for protecting intellectual property and supporting technology startups creates challenges for entrepreneurs. It was noted that many talented engineers choose to work in countries with better IP protection and startup support systems, rather than returning to their home countries.Lisa discussed the challenges of political risk in international business, noting that unexpected events like the Arab Spring and recent conflicts with Iran can significantly impact operations. When asked about opportunities in emerging economies versus developed countries and advised that while opportunities exist abroad, young engineers should carefully consider their adaptability and cultural readiness, as many countries prioritize hiring locals first. She emphasized the importance of having strong character and tolerance for ambiguity when considering international opportunities.Lisa advised David that the key factor in deciding whether to pursue an overseas opportunity is not the specific opportunity itself, but rather whether the person can adapt to the cultural and environmental challenges of the destination. She emphasized the importance of having the right personality traits, including fortitude and the ability to get out of one's comfort zone, particularly when dealing with different cultures and potentially difficult working conditions. Lisa shared her own experience working in the Middle East, explaining how she navigated cultural differences as a woman by maintaining professional behavior and dress standards, which helped her be treated with respect in the region.Carnegie discussed cultural attitudes toward animals in different regions, noting that while dogs are considered unclean in some Muslim countries, they are widely loved in Japan. She shared that interest in space exploration, particularly Mars colonization, is limited among people she knows, though SpaceX and Elon Musk are still respected in the Middle East. She explained that failure is perceived differently across cultures, with risk aversion being higher in many countries compared to the Western approach of learning from failures. She revealed that her STEM and space education programs in the Middle East have been successful, particularly in engaging girls in engineering, though she has since shifted focus away from space education due to bureaucratic challenges.The group discussed space programs around the world, with our guest highlighting unexpected space activities in countries like Croatia and Romania, particularly noting Romania's satellite program driven by educational institutions rather than government agencies. Lisa explained that budget constraints and existing partnerships with established space agencies like SpaceX make it unlikely for countries like Saudi Arabia and UAE to develop their own reusable rockets. The conversation also covered her current location in the US due to weather conditions in Saudi Arabia, and plans for future meetings with participants in locations like Las Vegas.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentWe use Zoom phone numbers for program participation.For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

Although it's increasingly common to describe the Palestinian struggle for liberation in terms of a conflict with settler colonialism, it's more rare for Palestine to be situated in the broader context of anti-imperialist struggles of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and specifically the wars for liberation conducted by the FLN in Algeria and the Vietminh and the National Liberation Front in Vietnam. Hamza Hamouchene seeks to do just that. In our conversation we talked about the importance of recognising that although the success of past decolonisation struggles is seen today as inevitable, they were not so perceived at the time and that in the cases of both Algeria and Vietnam their battles for independence endured for an extremely long time and were punctuated by what seemed to be possibly permanent defeats. We also talked about the Vietminh's victory of the French at Dien Bien Phu in 1954 and the shockwaves this sent through territories under the control of the French and other European empires elsewhere. We went on to talk about the direct assistance the Vietnamese and Algerians provided to each other, and how both aided the Palestinians after they had achieved independence. Finally, we talked about the relevance of the moment of the high point of anti-colonial struggle to the Palestinian cause now, given the even more challenging geopolitical situation that Palestinian resistance faces today.

WAFCON's quarterfinals just delivered the craziest week in the tournament's history, and the results prove it: ten-time champion and defending champion Nigeria were knocked out and Malawi, playing in just their first-ever WAFCON, qualified for their first-ever World Cup as the lowest-ranked nation to ever do it.In this episode, LDG breaks down all four quarterfinal matches before making the case that the World Cup slot allocation hasn't caught up to what African women's football has become. He lays out the numbers first: CAF and UEFA have almost identical membership, 54 nations to 55, yet UEFA gets eleven direct World Cup slots to CAF's four. This year's WAFCON proves how badly that decision missed the mark and why this current framework is detrimental to the growth of the women's game.He backs it up with what just happened on the pitch, a 16-team WAFCON field for the first time ever with two debutant nations reaching the tournament and a group so tight that CAF had to separate Malawi, Nigeria, and Zambia on a rarely-used head-to-head tiebreaker.From there, LDG gets into the storylines carrying the tournament into its final week, including KC Current forward Temwa Chawinga's goal against Ghana that kept Malawi's run alive, and what it means for an NWSL name to be at the center of an African qualifying story.He previews Wednesday's semifinals, Morocco hosting Cameroon in Rabat and Malawi facing Algeria in Casablanca, and closes on the four teams still fighting for a way into Brazil: Nigeria, South Africa, Ghana, and Ivory Coast all play an extra round on August 13 for a single remaining spot in the FIFA inter-confederation playoff, with two former champions now needing one more result just to stay alive.As mentioned in the episode, if you are looking to more WAFCON content, listen to our interview with Nigerian forward Esther Okoronkwo here, which we released on the day of their first 2026 WAFCON match!Thank you all for listening!

Send us Fan MailWhat takes someone from the Canadian military to Afghanistan, Sudan, Bangladesh, Egypt, Jordan and Algeria — and eventually to Carnival, J'ouvert, panyards and life in Trinidad and Tobago?In this episode of The Corie Sheppard Podcast, we sit down with Michael Callan, High Commissioner of Canada to Trinidad and Tobago, for a wide-ranging conversation about diplomacy, conflict, culture and the experiences that have shaped his life.Michael takes us inside his time in Kandahar, Afghanistan, where he worked as a civilian alongside the military in an increasingly dangerous environment. He reflects on the pressure of making decisions with real consequences, the conversations he had with his family about the possibility that he might not return home, and why one of the most difficult periods of his life was also one of his most rewarding.We also trace his journey through international development and diplomacy — from Bangladesh and Sudan to Egypt, Jordan and his time as Canada's Ambassador to Algeria — and explore what years spent around conflict taught him about people, institutions, leadership and the things human beings have in common.Then the conversation comes home to Trinidad and Tobago.Michael talks about discovering the country beyond the diplomatic bubble: exploring Tobago, visiting panyards, experiencing Canboulay, playing mas with The Lost Tribe, taking part in J'ouvert and even learning to make callaloo.We also explore the centuries-old connections between Canada and Trinidad and Tobago, from trade and migration to Carnival, Caribana, the Caribbean diaspora and even the extraordinary journey of leatherback turtles between our two countries.

Last week, around 72,000 migrants flooded from Morocco into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta. What really happened? Was a local girl abducted, never to be seen again? Did the Moroccan border guards step aside (or even collaborate) in an organized operation?  Right-wing politicians and pundits were quick to crank up the moral panic machine. This is what open borders look like! They're heading for our country next. Donald Trump said it was nothing compared to what would happen in the US if Democrats win the mid-terms. Then came the conspiracy theories. Was Morocco retaliating against Spain for a recent deal with their enemy, Algeria? Were America and Israel behind it as punishment for Spain's socialist prime minister being staunchly pro-Palestine and refusing to support the war in Iran? For a few magical days, right- and left-wing conspiracy theorists spread overlapping versions of the Great Replacement Theory. Julian dives into the diplomatic complexities, ideological contradictions, and historical twists to make sense of relations between Spain, Algeria, Morocco, Western Sahara, and Israel to ask: are there any good guys or is it colonizers all the way down?

This week, Hamza Hamouchene returns to the podcast to talk about Towards Palestinian Liberation: Global Perspectives on Anti-Colonial Resistance and Solidarity, the new collection he co-edited with Abi Bae. Palestine, he argues, cannot be understood simply as a “conflict” or humanitarian crisis, but as a national liberation struggle against settler colonialism embedded in a larger system of Western imperialism and global capitalism.Hamza traces Israel's role within the imperial order, the class interests of Arab ruling elites, and the political economy of occupation and dispossession. Drawing connections to Algeria, Vietnam, South Africa, and other anti-colonial struggles, he emphasizes the revolutionary potential of international solidarity and the necessity of connecting struggles against colonialism, capitalism, and imperialism.Steve brings MMT into the discussion, arguing that an analysis of real resources is incomplete without confronting the imperial power and violence through which those resources are controlled. The conversation ultimately points beyond solidarity with Palestine toward a larger project of liberation. As Hamza wraps it up:“We need to be in solidarity with movements that are fighting for their rights, fighting against land grabs, against extractivism, against neocolonial plunder. Be with the Palestinians in their struggle for liberation. Because what we want, Steve, is not just a liberated Palestine. We want a liberated Palestine in a liberated world.”Too often, mainstream narratives on Palestine are narrowly focused on Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. Solidarity is reduced to a matter of human rights and international law violations. Hamza stands firm in his refusal to treat Palestine as an exception to the global struggle against imperialism.Dr. Hamza Hamouchene is a London-based Algerian researcher-activist, commentator and a founding member of Algeria Solidarity Campaign (ASC), Environmental Justice North Africa (EJNA) and the North African Food Sovereignty Network (Siyada). He is currently the Arab region Programme Coordinator at the Transnational Institute (TNI). His work is focused on issues of extractivism, resources, land and food sovereignty as well as climate, environmental, and energy justice in the Arab region. He is the author/editor of five books: “Towards Palestinian Liberation: Global Perspectives on Anti-Colonial Resistance & Solidarity” (2026), “Dismantling Green Colonialism: Energy and Climate Justice in the Arab Region” (2023), “The Arab Uprisings: A decade of struggles” (2022), “The Struggle for Energy Democracy in the Maghreb” (2017) and The Coming Revolution to North Africa: The Struggle for Climate Justice (2015).

It's Thursday, August 6th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Algerian, African church going underground The Protestant church in Algeria is going underground.  The Muslim-majority country is located in North Africa. Authorities there have shut down nearly all Evangelical churches over the past decade. Many Christians now meet secretly in homes.  One Algerian pastor told Morning Star News, “The situation is undeniably difficult because we are deprived of fellowship. But God's work must not stop. We desperately lack Bibles and Christian books, as customs officials systematically confiscate them even when friends bring them from the West.” Algeria is ranked 20th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the worst countries for the persecution of Christians.  British soldiers are asking about Christ Faith is increasing in the British military.  Army chaplains report more recruits are asking about Christianity, attending services, and requesting baptism. Dr. Martin Gliniecki is the executive director of the Soldiers' and Aviators' Scripture Readers Association. He told Christian Today, “We have prayed for revival in our nation for many years now and … revival in our Armed Forces too. Something is happening. While our Armed Forces are the smallest in modern history, the harvest remains plentiful.” In Luke 10:2, Jesus said, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few. Therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” British millionaire stands up for persecuted street preachers A British millionaire is standing up for persecuted street preachers. Businessman Samuel Leeds has pledged to fund the legal representation of Christian street preachers who are targeted by police.  He told Truth Times, “We see Christians being persecuted all over the world, but seeing it happen in Great Britain — seeing the disdain, the hatred, and now the oppression of Christian voices — really bothers me. … Where Christians are being unfairly targeted simply for preaching their faith, I'm prepared to put my money behind defending them.” Amen! Democrat primary voters elect another leftist The left wing of the Democratic Party continues to win election primaries. Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, whose parents came to America from Egypt, won the Democrat primary for U.S. Senate in Michigan on Tuesday.  The 41-year-old is an epidemiologist who received his Doctor of Medicine from Columbia University, served as director of the Department of Health, Human, and Veterans Services of Wayne County, Michigan, from 2023 to 2025, and was a candidate in the 2018 Michigan gubernatorial election. EL-SAYED: “What a race! You know, in the words of Muhammad Ali, we shook up the world!” Endorsed by socialist Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, among other leftists, he narrowly defeated Congresswoman Haley Stevens, a pro-Israel moderate Democrat. Remarkably, super PACs, political action committees, spent $60 million on the race, supporting Stevens 9-1. El-Sayed champions the abolition of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement known as ICE, ending most U.S. military aid to Israel, and wants a universal, government-funded health insurance program that covers everyone. If you take the time to watch his 19-minute victory speech, which we have linked in our transcript at www.TheWorldview.com, you will notice he is an articulate spokesman for his cause. EL-SAYED: “So, whether you voted for me or voted for my opponent or didn't vote at all, we're inviting you to that movement to get money out of politics, so we can put money back in pockets, and finally guarantee the promise of health care through Medicare for All.” If elected in November, Abdul El-Sayed would be the first Muslim in the Senate.  Democrats are moving left The views of Democrats are shifting further to the left. A new Reuters/Ipsos poll found 71 percent of Democrats label themselves as liberal. That's up from 55 percent in 2012.  Most liberal Democrats identify certain positions as essential to being a liberal. These include increasing taxes on corporations and billionaires, expanding access to abortion, and government provided healthcare coverage.  In Romans 13:4, the Apostle Paul identified different priorities for government: “For [a ruler] is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.” Amazon hits $3 trillion in market value Amazon became the fifth company to reach $3 trillion dollars in market value on Monday.  The tech company saw growth in its cloud-computing services as demand for Artificial Intelligence surges. Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Nvidia are the other companies that have reached a market value of $3 trillion dollars in the past.  Doctors successfully operated on baby in the womb And finally, doctors successfully operated on a baby while still in the womb. Baby Theo was diagnosed with a severe intestinal defect in the womb. Indeed, his intestines were completely outside his body.  Such cases can require many surgeries after birth, and babies do not always survive. Parents Maisie Savage and Josh French live in London. They were referred to a clinical trial at Texas Children's Hospital.  At 26 weeks of pregnancy, surgeons conducted the groundbreaking operation. It's the first surgery of its kind in the U.S.  Praise God! Baby Theo was born full-term in February. Josh recently told Good Morning America that Theo is thriving.   Listen. JOSH: “He's doing all the things that a normal, healthy baby should be doing. He's shouting. He's screaming. He blows raspberries. It's just fantastic having him home.” Psalm 127:3 says, “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from Him."

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into the multiple reasons we saw that alarming surge of migrants from Morocco into Spanish territory last week, the ugly family fight surrounding Ohio GOP Rep. Max Miller, Wisconsin Dems at each other's throats over the governor's primary, and very hopeful news for our friend, Jon Gabriel.First, Jim takes us inside the multiple factors behind last week's surge of more than 60,000 illegal migrants into sovereign Spanish territory in North Africa. He explains how Spain's wrongheaded amnesty policies contributed to all of this but so did years of bad blood between neighboring nations.Next, they wade into the family mess involving Ohio GOP Rep. Max Miller and his ex-wife, Emily. She is also the daughter of Ohio Republican Sen. Bernie Moreno. Jim and Greg review some of the accusations of abuse lodged against Miller, his online defense on Sunday, and Sen. Moreno's response. Whatever the truth is, Jim says Republicans in Ohio's 7th congressional district can do better, but they don't have much time to do it.Then, they head back to Wisconsin, where many Democrats are furious at outgoing Gov. Tony Evers for aggressively trying to manufacture his preferred outcome in the governor's primary. Meanwhile, online posts from 2019 and 2020 are emerging in which the socialist frontrunner, Francesca Hong, wanted to ban Thanksgiving and felt uncomfortable eating around "old white people."Finally, an encouraging update from our friend, Jon Gabriel.Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line.

On Today's Episode –Before diving into today's interview, hosts Mark Young and Matt Umbarger kick off the show by reacting to the breaking news surrounding Anthony Fauci's congressional testimony. They break down the shocking revelations from his personal diary, his heavy reliance on the Fifth Amendment despite holding a presidential pardon, and how the mainstream narrative has finally collapsed into what Blunt Force Truth called out years ago regarding the Wuhan lab and gain-of-function funding.Then, Mark welcomes an extraordinary guest who matches his own out-of-control, thrill-seeking spirit. Enter John Graham—a man who spent the first half of his life living by the bumper sticker "lucky to be alive." From hitchhiking into an active colonial war in Algeria at age 19 to completing the treacherous first direct descent of Denali's north wall, John thrived on adrenaline. As a U.S. Foreign Service officer, he purposefully sought out the world's most dangerous hotspots, eventually finding himself trapped in Hue during the 1972 North Vietnamese Easter Offensive, where he had to help establish martial law.But a sudden, shattering realization in the middle of a warzone changed his trajectory forever. John sits down with Mark to share how he transitioned from a self-described "moral monster" chasing personal thrills to a global peacemaker who helped end apartheid in South Africa. Together, Mark and John tackle the complex crisis of modern masculinity, the critical need for a balance between strength and compassion, and how John's global initiative, the Giraffe Heroes Project, is inspiring people around the world to stick their necks out for the common good.
