Nakba is Arabic for the 1948 catastrophe. where 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly expelled and driven from their ancestral homes and lands. Today, 77 years later, the Nakba continues. This time, aided and abetted by the U.S., Israel declares it has "the most moral army in the world, which does everything to avoid harming non-combatants.” Watch Al Jazeera or read the reports from Amnesty International, B'Tselem or Gush Shalom and other human rights organizations to verify the Israeli claim.  Netanyahu has declared that there will be no Palestinian state and that Israel will control Gaza. Will there ever be a viable Palestinian state? The keyword is viable, not just a collection of Bantustans crisscrossed by Israeli-only roads, walls, barriers and checkpoints. What will be the fate of millions of Palestinians? Is the Nakba permanent?

Iran is niet bereid om te onderhandelen over een staakt-het-vuren zolang Israël blijft aanvallen. Ingewijden melden aan persbureau Reuters dat Iran dat aan bemiddelaars heeft laten weten. Ze willen pas praten nadat hun reactie op de Israëlische aanvallen hebben voltooid'. Israël heeft vannacht opnieuw Iraanse raketinstallaties aangevallen, ook Iran heeft een grote raketaanval uitgevoerd. In Jeruzalem, Tel Aviv en Haifa waren explosies te horen, meldt Midden-Oostencorrespondent Tara Kenkhuis. Onder leiding van organisaties als Amnesty International, Save the Children en Oxfam Novib werd gisteren in Den Haag in het rood gedemonstreerd tegen het kabinetsbeleid over de Israël/Gaza-oorlog. En de opkomst was groot: volgens de organisatie zelf zo'n 150.000 mensen. Andere schattingen noemen zeker meer dan honderdduizend mensen. Berend Roorda, universitair docent rechtsgeleerdheid (RUG), gespecialiseerd in demonstratierecht, duidt de demonstratie. Een NAVO-deel en een gewoon burgerluchtvaartdeel: Schiphol wordt volgende week dinsdag en woensdag tijdens de NAVO-top in tweeën gesplitst. Als demissionair premier Dick Schoof de auto pakt naar de top en de rest het vliegtuig, dan landen er 44 regeringstoestellen op de luchthaven. Verslaggever Martijn de Rijk blikt deze week vooruit op de logistieke heksenketel die de NAVO-top voor Nederland is. En hij is begonnen op Schiphol.

First up, Georgetown law professor and former national legal director at the ACLU, David Cole, joins us to discuss the legal response to the Trump Administration's serial violations of the Constitution. Then Mike Ferner of Veterans for Peace checks in to update us halfway through his Fast for Gaza, 40 days of living on 250 calories per day, which is the average caloric intake of Palestinian survivors in Gaza. Finally, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, Joe Holley, stops by to pay tribute to his mentor and colleague, the late crusading journalist, Ronnie Dugger, founder of the progressive Texas Observer.David Cole is the Honorable George J. Mitchell Professor in Law and Public Policy and former National Legal Director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). He writes about and teaches constitutional law, freedom of speech, and constitutional criminal procedure. He is a regular contributor to The New York Review of Books and is the legal affairs correspondent for The Nation.Trump is obviously not concerned about antisemitism. He's concerned about targeting schools because they are places where people can criticize the president, where people can think independently, are taught to think independently, and often don't support what the president is doing. He's using his excuse to target a central institution of civil society.David ColeThe decision on Trump versus the United States is only about criminal liability for criminal acts, not for unconstitutional acts. And violating the Constitution is not a crime. Every president has violated the Constitution probably since George Washington. That's not a crime.David ColeMike Ferner served in the Navy during the Vietnam War, and he is former National Director and current Special Projects Coordinator for Veterans for Peace. He is the author of Inside the Red Zone: A Veteran for Peace Reports from Iraq.Two hundred and fifty calories is technically, officially, a starvation diet, and we're doing it for 40 days. The people in Gaza have been doing it for months and months and months, and they're dying like crazy. That's the whole concern that we're trying to raise. And I'll tell you at the end of this fast, on the 40th day, we are not just going out silently. There are going to be some fireworks before we're done with this thing. So all I'm saying is: stay tuned.Mike Ferner: Special Projects Coordinator of Veterans for Peace on “FastforGaza”They're (The Veterans Administration is) being defamed, Ralph, for the same reason that those right-wing corporatists defamed public education. So they can privatize it. And that's exactly what they're trying to do with the VA. And I can tell you every single member of Veterans for Peace has got nothing but praise for the VA.Mike FernerJoe Holley was the editor of the Texas Observer in the early 1980s. A former staff writer at The Washington Post and a Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial writer and columnist at the Houston Chronicle, he is the author of eight books, mostly about Texas.He would talk to people, and he would find out things going on about racial discrimination, about farm workers being mistreated, all kind of stories that the big papers weren't reporting. And this one guy, young Ronnie Dugger, would write these stories and expose things about Texas that a lot of Texans just did not know.Joe Holley on the late progressive journalist, Ronnie DuggerHe knew the dark side of Texas, but he always had an upbeat personality. I had numerous conversations with Ronnie (Dugger), and he was ferociously independent.Ralph NaderNews 6/13/251. On Monday, Israeli forces seized the Madleen, the ship carrying activist Greta Thunberg and others attempting to bring food and other supplies past the Israeli blockade into Gaza, and detained the crew. The ship was part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition and Thunberg had been designated an “Ambassador of Conscience,” by Amnesty International. The group decried her detention, with Secretary General Agnès Callamard writing, “Israel has once again flouted its legal obligations towards civilians in the occupied Gaza Strip and demonstrated its chilling contempt for legally binding orders of the International Court of Justice.” On Tuesday, CBS reported that Israel deported Thunberg. Eight other passengers refused deportation and the Jerusalem Post reports they remain in Israeli custody. They will be represented in Israeli courts by Adalah - The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel. One of these detainees is Rima Hassan, a French member of the European Parliament.2. Shortly before the Madleen was intercepted, members of Congress sent a letter to Secretary of State Marco Rubio expressing concern for the safety of these activists, citing the deadly 2010 raid of the Mavi Marmara, which ultimately resulted in the death of ten activists, including an American. This letter continued, “any attack on the Madleen or its civilian crew is a clear and blatant violation of international law. United Nations experts have called for the ship's safe passage and warned Israel to “refrain from any act of hostility” against the Madleen and its passengers…We call on you to monitor the Madleen's journey and deter any such hostile actions.” This letter was led by Rep. Rashida Tlaib, and drew signatures from Congressional progressives like Reps. Summer Lee, AOC, Ilhan Omar, Greg Casar, and others.3. On the other end of the political spectrum, Trump – ever unpredictable – seemed to criticize Israel's detention of Thunberg. In a press conference, “Trump was…asked about Thunberg's claim that she had been kidnapped.” The president responded “I think Israel has enough problems without kidnapping Greta Thunberg…Is that what she said? She was kidnapped by Israel?” The reporter replied “Yes, sir,” to which “Trump responded by shaking his head.” This from Newsweek.4. Of course, the major Trump news this week is his response to the uprising in Los Angeles. Set off by a new wave of ICE raids, protesters have clashed with police in the streets and Trump has responded by increasingly upping the ante, including threatening to arrest California Governor Gavin Newsom, per KTLA. Beyond such bluster however, Trump has moved to deploy U.S. Marines onto the streets of the nation's second-largest city. Reuters reports, “About 700 Marines were in a staging area in the Seal Beach area about 30 miles…south of Los Angeles, awaiting deployment to specific locations,” in addition to 2,100 National Guard troops. The deployment of these troops raises thorny legal questions. Per Reuters, “The Marines and National Guard troops lack the authority to makes arrests and will be charged only with protecting federal property and personnel,” but “California Attorney General Rob Bonta… [said] there was a risk that could violate an 1878 law that…forbids the U.S. military, including the National Guard, from taking part in civilian law enforcement.” Yet, despite all the tumult, these protests seem to have gotten the goods, so to speak: the City of Glendale announced it would, “end its agreement with…ICE to house federal immigration detainees.” All of this sets quite a scene going into Trump's military parade in DC slated for Saturday, June 14th.5. In classic fashion however, Trump's tough posture does not extend to corporate crime. Public Citizen's Rick Claypool reports, “Trump's DOJ just announced American corporations that engage in criminal bribery schemes abroad will no longer be prosecuted.” Claypool cites a June 9th memo from Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, which reads, “Effective today, prosecutors shall…not attribute…malfeasance to corporate structures.” Claypool also cites a Wall Street Journal piece noting that “the DOJ has already ended half of its criminal investigations into corporate bribery in foreign countries and shrunk its [Foreign Corrupt Practices Act] unit down to 25 employees.”6. Americans can at least take small comfort in one thing: the departure of Elon Musk from the top rungs of government. It remains to be seen what exactly precipitated his final exit and how deep his rift with Trump goes – Musk has already backed down on his harshest criticisms of the president, deleting his tweet claiming Trump was in Epstein files, per ABC. Yet, this appears to be a victory for Steve Bannon and the forces he represents within Trump's inner circle. On June 5th, the New York Times reported that Bannon, “said he was advising the president to cancel all [Musk's] contracts and… ‘initiate a formal investigation of his immigration status'.” Bannon added, “[Musk] should be deported from the country immediately.'” Bannon has even called for a special counsel probe, per the Hill. Bannon's apparent ascendency goes beyond the Oval Office as well. POLITICO Playbook reports Bannon had a 20-minute-long conversation with Pennsylvania Democratic Senator John Fetterman on Monday evening – while Fetterman dined with Washington bureau chief for Breitbart, Matt Boyle – at Butterworth's, the DC MAGA “watering hole.” This also from the Hill.7. On the way out, the Daily Beast reports, “Elon Musk's goons at the Department of Government Efficiency transmitted a large amount of data—all of it undetected—using a Starlink Wi-Fi terminal they installed on top of the White House.” Sources “suggested that the [the installation of the Starlink terminal] was intended to bypass White House systems that track the transmission of data—with names and time stamps—and secure it from spies.” It is unknown exactly what data Musk and his minions absconded with, and for what purpose. We can only hope the public gets some answers.8. With Musk and Trump parting ways, other political forces are now seeking to woo the richest man in the world. Semafor reports enigmatic Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna, who represents Silicon Valley and chaired Bernie Sanders' campaign in California, “talked with one of…Musk's ‘senior confidants' …about whether the ex-DOGE leader…might want to help the Democratic Party in the midterms.” Khanna added, “Having Elon speak out against the irrational tariff policy, against the deficit exploding Trump bill, and the anti-science and anti-immigrant agenda can help check Trump's unconstitutional administration…I look forward to Elon turning his fire against MAGA Republicans instead of Democrats in 2026.” On the other hand, the Hill reports ex-Democrat Andrew Yang is publicly appealing to Musk for an alliance following Musk's call for the establishment of an “America Party.” Yang himself founded the Forward Party in 2021. Yang indicated Musk has not responded to his overtures.9. Meanwhile, the leadership of the Democratic Party appears to be giving up entirely. In a leaked Zoom meeting, DNC Chair Ken Martin – only elected in February – said, “I don't know if I wanna do this anymore,” per POLITICO. On this call, Martin expressed frustration with DNC Vice Chair David Hogg, blaming him for, “[destroying] any chance I have to show the leadership that I need to.” Hogg meanwhile has doubled down, defying DNC leadership by “wading into another primary,” this time for the open seat left by the death of Congressman Gerry Conolly in Virginia, the Washington Post reports. The DNC is still weighing whether to void Hogg's election as Vice Chair.10. Finally, in some good news from New York City, State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani appears to have closed the gap with disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo. Cuomo began the race with a 40-point lead; a new Data for Progress poll shows that lead has been cut down to just two points. Moreover, that poll was conducted before Mamdani was endorsed by AOC, who is expected to bring with her substantial support from Latinos and residents of Queens, among other groups. Notably, Mamdani has racked up tremendous numbers among young men, a demographic the Democratic Party has struggled to attract in recent elections. Cuomo will not go down without a fight however. The political nepo-baby has already secured a separate ballot line for the November election, meaning he will be in the race even if he loses the Democratic primary, and he is being boosted by a new million-dollar digital ad spend by Airbnb, per POLITICO. The New York City Democratic Primary will be held on June 24th.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

President Donald Trump has made the “big, beautiful bill” a hallmark piece of legislation for his administration. However, the bill's most vocal opponent has been one of Trump's closest allies. Elon Musk, the world's richest man and former head of DOGE, has called out the bill for increasing the debt ceiling. Musk has been pushing for legislators to kill the bill. In a press conference with German chancellor Friedrich Merz, Trump responded to a question about Musk and shared his disappointment in the billionaire. It's created a war of words between the president and the billionaire. Could the public spat signal the downfall of Trump's spending plan?A humanitarian aid organization in Gaza backed by the US and Israel is under scrutiny. The newly founded Gaza Humanitarian Foundation has been criticized by more established aid groups for a lack of transparency and infrastructure following attacks on Palestinians as they attempted to receive food and resources delivered by GHF. Israel's government says the group is necessary because of a lack of trust in groups like the United Nations and Amnesty International. But is their ability to handle the massive undertaking of providing aid to Gaza compromised?How does support for overarching policies shift when those policies hit closer to home? KCRW discusses the dilemma facing a small Missouri town.

Mayıs ayında göreve başlayan Friedrich Merz liderliğindeki CDU/SPD koalisyonunun en önemli vaatleri arasında ülkeye gelen düzensiz göçü sınırlamak geliyor. İçişleri Bakanı Dobrindt bu yönde hazırladığı göç paketiyle ilk adımı attı. Vatandaşlık yasası ve aile birleşiminde değişiklikler öngören paket kabine tarafından da onaylandı. Üç yıl içinde belirli koşullar sağlandığında vatandaşlığa hızlı geçiş kaldırılacak. Alman vatandaşlığına geçiş en erken beş yıl sonra mümkün olacak. Ayrıca sınırlarda sığınmacıların geri gönderilmesi uygulaması mahkeme kararına rağmen devam edecek. Aralarında Terre des Hommes ve Amnesty International'ın da bulunduğu kuruluşlar özellikle aile birleşiminde öngörülen değişikliğe karşı çıkıyor. Almanya duvarları neden yükseltiyor?

Northern Ireland is officially the most dangerous place in the UK to be a journalist. A new report published by Amnesty International this week says that journalists here are working in a ‘climate of fear' with numerous death threats against them. The report says that there have been over 70 incidents of threats or attacks against journalists since the start of 2019. Olivia Peden is joined by Allison Morris and Ciaran Barnes to uncover what working as a journalist under threat in Northern Ireland is really like. Hosted on Acast.

Sara Marconi, Beniamino Sidoti"Le so tutte"Illustrazioni di Francesco FagnaniEdizioni Lapiswww.edizionilapis.itSavannah e Maicol sono amici da sempre, anche se non potrebbero essere più diversi.Savannah è brillante, determinata e appassionata di ecologia. Ha un mito assoluto: Ross Michaels, imprenditore visionario e guru dell'ambientalismo, con cui sogna – un giorno – di salvare il mondo. Maicol invece è imprevedibile, buffo, pieno di idee. A scuola si perde facilmente, le sue risposte sorprendono, confondono, fanno sorridere o disperare le maestre. Nessuno sembra capirlo, tranne Savannah.Finché un giorno Maicol riceve un oggetto misterioso: un ciondolo capace di fornire la risposta esatta a qualunque domanda. Da quel momento, sa tutto. Sempre. Confida in gran segreto alla sua amica che l'oggetto gli è stato recapitato da una civiltà aliena. All'inizio è entusiasta. Finalmente non sbaglia più, tutti lo ascoltano, le risposte arrivano senza fatica. Ma a poco a poco si rende conto che quel sapere non gli appartiene: è il ciondolo a parlare.Savannah è convinta che il ciondolo fosse destinato a Ross Michaels – i nomi si somigliano, dopotutto.Quando vince un concorso della Ross Corporation, parte con Maicol per partecipare al torneo e incontrare finalmente il suo idolo.Ma l'incontro non va come previsto: il ciondolo costringe Ross Michaels a dire la verità e rivela che la consolle “ecologica” è in realtà fatta di plastica.Per Savannah è una delusione profonda. L'uomo in cui aveva riposto fiducia si rivela ben lontano dai suoi idealiMaicol recupera il ciondolo e scopre che era davvero destinato a lui. Solo che è arrivato in anticipo: dieci anni troppo presto.Savannah, disillusa ma più consapevole, capisce che non basta sapere tutto. Le risposte non contano, se non si fanno le domande giuste.E capisce anche che non sarà Ross Michaels a salvare il mondo. Maicol, forse, sì. Naturalmente, con il suo aiuto!Età di lettura dai 9 anniSara MarconiEditor e traduttrice, si laurea in Storia della lingua italiana presso l'Università di Bologna.

In the second episode of the mini-series on Civilian Harm in Conflict, host Mae Thompson from Ceasefire, the Center for Civilian Rights, explores the issues of civillian harm and reparations for victims of military actions in Yemen. The discussion features insights from Bonyan Gamal, a lawyer based in Sana'a Yemen and Program Manager of the Yemeni Archive, Kristine Beckerle, Deputy Regional Director of Amnesty International for the Middle East and North Africa and co-investigator on the Reparations for Civilian Harm in Conflict project, and Professor Luke Moffett from Queen's University School of law. The guests explore the various harms experienced by Yemeni civilians, including psychological, economic, and direct physical impacts, and discuss the obstacles and potential solutions for obtaining reparations and accountability. The conversation emphasises the need for a victim-centered approach, improved state policies, and the importance of international support and acknowledgment to address the long-standing grievances and ensure non-repetition of violations.This podcast is the second in a series of episode on Civilian Harm in Conflict – hosted by Mae Thompson, advocacy officer at Ceasefire. The podcast is an output of the AHRC funded ‘Reparations during Armed Conflict‘ project with Queen's University Belfast, University College London and Ceasefire, led by Professor Luke Moffett.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 45-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 21,492 on turnover of $2.9-billion N-T. Taiwan-China interactions continue despite stalled talks: MAC head Mainland Affairs Council head Chiu Chui-cheng says Taiwan and China still maintain some level of interaction, even though official dialogue has stalled. In an interview,Chiu said interactions with China are being carried out in line with the Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area. Chiu acknowledged that maintaining "normal dialogue" is currently difficult because Taiwan will never accept China's demand to treat the "1992 Consensus," based on the "One China principle," as a precondition (前提). Nevertheless, Chiu said some interaction continues between the MAC and China's Taiwan Affairs Office, as well as between the semi-official SEF and its Chinese counterpart, the Beijing-based Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits. Chiu also says individuals across the Strait, including Taiwanese businesspeople, scholars and journalists, frequently travel between the two sides and share information. World Masters Games' closing ceremony The closing ceremony of the 2025 World Masters Games will take place on the evening of May 30 at the New Taipei City Art Museum, featuring a star-studded lineup and spectacular visuals.

To complement (為…增色) the artistic setting, the outdoor area will feature four major art installations highlighting the magic of light. And a 4.5-minute fireworks display will also light up the night sky, with popular band Energy headlining the event with a 20-minute finale performance. EU Trade Negotiator on US Talks A European Union official says he has had good trade talks with the Trump administration. AP correspondent Mike Hempen reports Amnesty Accuses M23 Rebels of War Crimes Human rights group Amnesty International accused the M23 rebels in eastern Congo of killing, torturing and forcibly disappearing civilian detainees in two rebel-controlled cities. Amnesty says “these acts violate (違反) international humanitarian law and may amount to war crimes.” The decades-long conflict in eastern Congo escalated in January. The Rwanda-backed M23 advanced and seized the strategic city of Goma in North Kivu province followed by Bukavu in February. Amnesty said that between February and April it interviewed 18 civilians who had been unlawfully detained by M23. They reported suffering brutal beatings and harsh detention conditions while their relatives were denied access to the detention sites. Canada King Charles Visit Britain's King Charles III has arrived in Ottawa on a visit that Canada's leader says will underscore (強調) his nation's sovereignty. The king and Queen Camilla were greeted at the airport by Mark Carney, Canada's new prime minister, along with Canada's first Indigenous governor general, Mary Simon. Aside from meeting privately with Carney, the king is scheduled to deliver the speech from the throne, which outlines the government's agenda for the new Parliament. The king is the head of state in Canada, which is a member of the British Commonwealth of former colonies. King Charles will return to the U.K. after today's speech and a visit to Canada's National War Memorial. That was the I.C.R.T.

Tuesday Headlines: Macron slapped and shoved by wife in Vietnam, Kremlin calls Trump ‘emotional’, millions of Australians under severe weather warning impacting multiple states, new figures showing how much WFH saves the average Aussie worker, and The Briefers aren’t delulu for Labubu!Further listening from the headlines: Wtf is a Labubu? Deep Dive: Youth crime is declining across Australia - so why are children as young as 10 being treated like adult criminals in some jurisdictions? Queensland’s government has just passed new ‘adult crime, adult time’ laws, meaning young offenders will face harsher penalties for serious crimes like rape, arson, and murder. Despite strong condemnation from the UN, Amnesty International, and other human rights groups, Premier David Crisafulli says he’s delivering on a key election promise and serving his community. In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou speaks with social justice campaigner Gerry Georgatos, who works closely with young offenders, about the real impact of these laws - and whether we’re punishing trauma instead of addressing it.

This is the extraordinary journey of Rabbi Mendy Chitric, a Chabad rabbi based in Turkey. Born in Swat, Pakistan, and part of an 11th-generation Chabad family, Rabbi Chitric has spent the last 25 years serving the Jewish community in Istanbul — a city where Jewish life dates back 2,700 years. Originally planning to stay for just one year, Rabbi Chitric remained to answer the needs of a community facing significant challenges: assimilation, declining population, and a need for strong Jewish infrastructure. This video dives deep into Rabbi Chitric's insights on:

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports the Russian authorities have outlawed Amnesty International as an “undesirable organization,” a label that under a 2015 law makes involvement with such organizations a criminal offense.

It's Thursday, May 15th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark 1,518 executions worldwide in 2024 A report from Amnesty International found there were 1,518 executions around the world last year. That's up 32 percent from 2023. Nations with the most documented executions include Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq.  These numbers do not include executions in China, North Korea, and Vietnam. China is considered to be the world's leading executioner, with potentially thousands of executions last year. All of these countries are ranked on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  British city council no longer bans street preachers A local government district in England has backed down from banning street preachers. Back in March, Rushmoor Borough Council sought to criminalize street preaching, praying for people, singing, or handing out Bibles. Local churches, supported by the Christian Legal Centre, opposed the plan. Thankfully, the council backed down.  Jamie Broadey, a local evangelist, said, “Since we found out about the injunction and asked for prayer, we have been contacted by Christians from across the UK. The issue is uniting preachers and Christians and we are prepared to challenge this as far as need be to prevent the Gospel being criminalized.” Acts 5:29 says, “But Peter and the other apostles answered and said: ‘We ought to obey God rather than men.'” $1.2 trillion economic package with Qatar United States President Donald Trump is visiting countries in the Middle East this week. Yesterday, he signed an agreement with Qatar that would generate an economic exchange worth at least $1.2 trillion. This includes an historic sale of Boeing aircraft and GE Aerospace engines to Qatar Airways worth $96 billion.  Trump budget insists on work requirements for Medicaid This week, Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives unveiled the “big, beautiful bill,” as the president calls it, to advance Trump's agenda.  The bill includes tax breaks, spending cuts, and border security.  Notably, the measure would cut $900 billion from Medicaid spending. It would also require many people to prove they are working, volunteering, or pursuing education to be eligible for Medicaid. Listen to comments by House Speaker Mike Johnson. JOHNSON: “We are protecting Medicaid for the people who need and deserve it. This program is an essential lifeline for our most vulnerable Americans: pregnant women, single mothers, low income seniors, the disabled. That's who Medicaid is intended to be for, and that's who we're protecting while we're eliminating fraud, waste and abuse to improve Medicaid. “These are reforms to restore and preserve the system so that it doesn't collapse on itself. That means ensuring illegal aliens don't get coverage meant for Americans in need. It means implementing work requirements to ensure that adults who can work, but refuse to, cannot keep cheating the system. We're going to continue to call this out.” Trump's bill defunds Planned Parenthood The “big, beautiful bill” from Republicans also paves the way for defunding Planned Parenthood. The legislation would bar federal funds from going to prohibited entities that perform abortions in many cases. The measure would also cut taxpayer funding for transgender surgeries for minors.  U.S. drug overdose deaths down Drug overdose deaths in the United States declined last year. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports 80,000 people died from overdoses in 2024. That's down 27 percent from 2023. It's the largest drop in overdose deaths on record. However, overdose deaths are still higher now than they were before the COVID-19 pandemic.  Inflation down and egg prices down Annual inflation was lower than expected last month. The consumer price index rose 0.2 percent in April. That put the 12-month inflation rate at 2.3 percent. Inflation is now the lowest it's been since 2021. Notably, egg prices fell by over 12 percent. However, they're still up about 50 percent compared to a year ago. Worldwide Bible engagement update And finally, the American Bible Society released the second chapter of its State of the Bible USA 2025 report.  The chapter looks at Bible engagement around the world.  People are most actively engaged and committed to the Bible in areas that are majority Christian like Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa.  Interestingly, people are the most receptive to new ideas and other religions in Muslim-majority areas like North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia.  The greatest indifference to the Bible is found in the secular west and certain majority-Christian areas like the U.S., Western Europe, Russia, and Eastern Europe.  Of countries in the secular West, the U.S. had the highest rates of Bible usage and church attendance.  Isaiah 45:22 says, “Look to Me, and be saved, all you ends of the Earth! For I am God, and there is no other.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, May 15th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Bliksem: een natuurkracht die prachtig, ontzagwekkend én beangstigend is. En nog steeds grotendeels een mysterie. In Nederland slaat de bliksem elk jaar zo'n 300.000 keer in. Gemiddeld worden zes mensen per jaar geraakt — en twee daarvan overleven het niet.   Wat gebeurt er met je lichaam als je door bliksem getroffen wordt?  En hoe zit het eigenlijk met stroomstootwapens, zoals de taser? Zijn die wel zo veilig als we denken?  In deze speciale aflevering van Focus:

What does it mean to say that rape is not a crime of passion, but a tool of conquest? In this searing episode, Matika sits down with Chief Justice Sarah Deer—legal scholar, citizen of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, and longtime advocate for Native women—to break down the root causes of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People (MMIWP) crisis. Together, they trace the systemic failures—from jurisdictional loopholes and underfunded Tribal justice systems to harmful stereotypes and state indifference—that enable violence against Native people to persist across generations.Sarah shares insights from decades of research, courtroom advocacy, and lived experience. She explains why the word “rape” still matters, how U.S. law continues to reflect colonial patriarchy, and what tribal sovereignty has to do with personal safety. With clarity and care, she connects the dots between land theft, gender-based violence, and narrative erasure—and offers a vision for Indigenous feminist legal theory that centers survivor agency and collective healing.This is a vital episode for anyone who wants to understand the roots of violence and the pathways to justice in Indian Country.Learn more about Sarah Deer's work at sarahdeer.com.Educational Reading & Reports• Sarah Deer's The Beginning and End of Rape is essential reading on how U.S. law enables violence against Native women—and how we can reclaim justice through sovereignty and Indigenous feminist legal theory.

Amnesty International is now calling Israel's mass atrocity in Gaza “a live-streamed genocide” due to the way this nightmare is unfolding right in front of us on the screens of our devices around the world, and public support for Israel is plummeting in the United States. Zionists are losing control of the narrative, and they know it. And they are not taking it well. Reading by Tim Foley.

Amnesty International accuses Israel of 'live-streamed genocide' in Gaza Amnesty International, in a report, accuses Israel of perpetrating a “live-streamed genocide” in Gaza, underlining systematic mass slaughter, starvation and ruthless displacement of Palestinians. "States watched on as if powerless, as Israel killed thousands upon thousands of Palestinians, wiping out entire multigenerational families, destroying homes, livelihoods, hospitals, and schools,""Amnesty's Secretary General Agnes Callamard said. With 1.9 million Palestinians driven from their homes, Amnesty described Israel's invasion as an “engineered humanitarian apocalypse.” Amnesty also highlights escalating violence and apartheid in the occupied West Bank. UNHCR slams UN Security Council for 'chronic failure' to stop wars The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees chief Filippo Grandi criticised the UN Security Council for its chronic failure to prevent global violence, accusing the body of neglecting its responsibility to uphold peace. "This is a season of war. This is a time of crisis. From Sudan to Ukraine, from the Sahel to Myanmar, from the Democratic Republic of Congo to Haiti, violence has become the defining currency of our age," Grandi said, pointing to escalating crises across the world. He warned that cuts to humanitarian aid are already costing lives and jeopardising millions. Grandi demanded urgent action, urging the Council to stop hiding behind diplomatic failures and take real risks to end conflict and protect civilians. Pakistan warns of imminent Indian incursion after Kashmir attack Pakistan's Defence Minister Khawaja Asif warns of an imminent military incursion by New Delhi following last week's deadly attack on tourists in India-administered Kashmir. Tensions between the two neighbours have escalated, with Asif citing India's growing aggressive rhetoric. The attack, which killed 26 people, triggered calls for action against Pakistan, despite a lack of proof of involvement, while Islamabad called for a neutral investigation. While Pakistan remains on high alert, Asif stressed that nuclear weapons would only be used in self-defence. International calls for de-escalation continue, including from Türkiye and China. Liberal Party secures victory in Canada's election: projections Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberal Party has won Canada's election, according to projections from CBC and CTV News. While it remains unclear whether the party will secure a majority, Carney's team is expected to form the next government. The election saw US President Donald Trump's comments, including a suggestion of Canada joining the US, influence the race. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre criticised Trump's interference, reaffirming Canada's sovereignty. Carney, who recently replaced Justin Trudeau, has emphasised the need for stability and calm leadership. Iberian Peninsula in chaos as power outage hits Spain, Portugal A colossal power outage plunged Spain, Portugal, and Andorra into chaos on Monday, disrupting daily life across the Iberian Peninsula. By Tuesday, Spain had managed to restore power to half the country, with a full recovery imminent. Portugal's Prime Minister Luis Montenegro hinted that the catastrophe likely stemmed from Spain, though the cause remains shrouded in mystery. European Council President Antonio Costa dismissed any cyberattack claims, but the hunt for answers continues. The unprecedented blackout also sent shockwaves through parts of France, leaving authorities scrambling for answers.

Des milliers d'innoçents croupiraient en prison, sans procès. Le symbole de cette guerre, c'est une une mégaprison construite près de la capitale : le centre de confinement du terrorisme, ou Cecot, qui peut accueillir jusqu'à 40.000 détenus – soit la moitié de tous les détenus français en 2024.Sur le terrain : Camilo Freedman, journaliste au bureau de l'AFP à San Salvador.Invités : Oscar Batres, journaliste au bureau de l'AFP à San Salvador, Irene Cuellar, auteure d'un rapport sur les droits humains pour Amnesty International.Réalisation : Emmanuelle Baillon et Michaëla Cancela-Kieffer.

What does this mean for Kenyan officers on the ground? Also, Amnesty International says Ethiopia's so-called “corridor development” project is sparking fear and uncertainity amongst residents And what are Ponzi schemes and why do so many people fall victim to it?
