The aerial bombardment that rained down on the Spanish city of Guernica in 1937 was one of the most shocking atrocities of the Spanish Civil War. Dan and David Brydan - historian of Modern Spain at King's College London - explain why this Basque town was targeted, how the attack unfolded and what it meant for civilians on the ground. They explore the political motives behind the raid as well as its enduring impact on Europe and trace how Guernica became a symbol of the horrors of modern warfare.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.Sign up to History Hit for hundreds of hours of original documentaries, with a new release every week and ad-free podcasts.

Egypt's Decline and the Rise of Israel: Colleague Eric Cline explains that while Egypt survived the collapse, it merely "coped" rather than flourished, entering a chaotic era known as the Third Intermediate Period; as Egypt retreated from the international stage, a power vacuum allowed smaller entities like the Israelites to emerge, while recent DNA evidence from Ashkelon confirms the Philistines' origins in southern Europe, likely Crete or Sardinia, showing they migrated and intermarried with local Canaanites rather than simply conquering them. 1894

Scott Bowden set out two weeks ago to tackle a 580km route across Tasmania. His goal was to beat Payson's FKT from 2021, but most importantly, he just wanted to finish. With 11,000 meters of elevation, multiple river crossings, all types of weather, and punishing terrain, the route is brutal to say the least, and when Scott found himself struggling to keep his body temperature, he thought about pulling the plug. In the end, he did finish, and he joins Payson to swap war stories. Before discussing the ride, however, they talk about how Scott got there in the first place. He began his cycling career in XC, and even competed in the Olympics in 2016. After transitioning to pro road racing in Europe, however, his career was cut short by several factors caused by the pandemic. After moving back home to Tassie, he started a new chapter, both on the bike and off. This episode is brought to you by MAAP, TrainingPeaks, and Osprey.

This week on Red, White & Bruised, host Robin breaks down another week of chaos from the Trump administration, from potential war crimes to beefing with pop stars to gutting protections for trans prisoners.THE BIG STORY: Pete Hegseth's Boat Strike Scandal The Secretary of Defense is facing war crime allegations after reports surfaced that a second missile was fired at survivors of an initial strike on an alleged drug boat in the Caribbean. 87 people dead across 22 strikes. No evidence released. And Hegseth says he "fully supports" killing shipwrecked survivors. We dig into the Washington Post reporting, the congressional briefings, and why 75% of Americans want to see the receipts.ALSO THIS WEEK:Sabrina Carpenter vs. The White House: The administration used her song for ICE deportation propaganda. She called it "evil and disgusting." The White House called her "stupid." Also, they pissed off Franklin the Turtle. Yes, the children's character.

Gone. Free admission on Trump's birthday? You bet."Affordability" Is a Scam Now: Trump ran on lowering prices. Now he says the word "affordability" is a Democratic con job.

What it means for 2026.Trump vs. Kaitlan Collins: Another day, another female journalist called "stupid and nasty."MTG's Revenge Tour: Marjorie Taylor Greene confirms Trump was "furious" about her support for releasing the Epstein files.

What does learning look like when technology shifts faster than most university systems can adapt? That question shaped my conversation with Rob Telfer, who leads education strategy for D2L across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Rob returned to the show with a clear view of how AI is transforming higher education and why so many institutions are struggling to keep pace with expectations from students, employers, and society. Rob opened by laying out the reality universities face today. Financial strain, fluctuating enrolment, employer demands changing at speed, and a generation of learners preparing for roles that may not even exist yet. Against that backdrop, he described AI as the biggest catalyst the sector has seen in decades and explained how it has already reshaped academic policy, assessment models, and daily teaching practice. We explored practical examples of where AI is already creating meaningful change. Rob shared how D2L is helping institutions introduce adaptive learning, on demand student support, and content creation tools that reduce the pressure on educators. These are not speculative ideas. They are used by universities serving tens of thousands of learners, improving accessibility, easing workloads, and giving students faster, more personal support. The conversation moved to employability, a worry at the centre of almost every higher education debate. Rob explained how curriculum design needs to shift from theory first to skill first, and how deeper collaboration between academia and industry can help close widening gaps. He described why AI should be woven through the learning experience rather than bolted on at the end, and how that alignment can shape graduates who are confident with the tools they will soon use in the workplace. A striking theme came from the mismatch between student behaviour and institutional policy. Many students use AI daily, even where guidance is unclear or restrictive. Rob argued that ignoring the reality only pushes students into the shadows. Universities that teach responsible use, clear evaluation methods, and prompt literacy will better prepare their learners for the world they are about to enter. We ended by looking ahead to 2026. Rob believes the institutions that thrive will be the ones that act with intent, create clear AI policies, invest in meaningful technology, and keep human connection at the centre of learning. Those that resist or delay may find themselves struggling to compete in a sector where expectations rise quickly and alternatives for learners continue to grow. If you work in education or care about the future of learning, Rob's insights offer a candid, practical view of what must change. Which of his observations resonates most with your own experience, and how should universities evolve from here? I would love to hear your thoughts.

The appearance of drones of unknown origin in Dublin last week around the time of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy's visit again highlighted the security challenges of the present day and Ireland's lack of capability to act in its own defence. Neutrality remains a popular policy, as again demonstrated recently by the election of Catherine Connolly as president. That popularity does not answer the question of how much Ireland should invest in its own defence. Ireland diverges from other neutral European countries in our low defence spending and reliance on others for protection, information and security. But against those calling for bigger defence budgets, others warn of militarisation and point out the money could be better spent elsewhere. So does being a voice for peace preclude greater defence spending, or is defence spending a crucial part of a viable neutrality? On today's podcast Hugh is joined by Naomi O'Leary to pick apart the elements of Ireland's approach to defence and neutrality, how we compare to others and what questions will arise as Ireland comes under increasing pressure in Europe to boost capabilities.

US equity futures point to a slightly firmer open, while Asian markets trade mixed and European equities edge lower. Today's focus is on the Federal Reserve ahead of Wednesday's meeting, with a twenty-five basis point rate cut widely expected but rising attention on the risk of a more hawkish message that could limit the path for further easing; Trade developments remain in focus after US officials signaled progress in talks with China over the weekend and prepared for negotiations with India, while France warned of potential tariffs linked to Europe's trade imbalance with China; Investors are also watching AI- and technology-related developments closely, as upcoming earnings and product announcements continue to drive sector rotation and volatility beneath relatively stable headline indices.Companies Mentioned: IBM, Confluent, Boeing, Spirit AeroSystems, Netflix, Warner Bros

En Partenariat avec le Salon Histoire de Lire 2025 À travers ce nouvel album, apprenez-en davantage sur l'évolution du groupe après l'intervention de Djibouti et jusqu'au départ de Christian Prouteau en 1983.En 1976, le GIGN accède enfin à la notoriété. Christian Prouteau doit néanmoins continuer à ruser pour obtenir des moyens afin de mener à bien les missions, et même lutter pour la survie du groupe. 1976-1983 est donc une période charnière dans l'histoire du GIGN : les techniques s'affinent, le groupe s'étoffe, les missions plus ou moins connues s'enchaînent avec succès. Mais cet engagement se paye au prix fort. En effet, cette période est aussi celle des premiers gendarmes morts à l'entraînement. 1983 marque un tournant dans cette histoire avec le départ de Christian Prouteau et de la plupart des dix-sept premiers membres. Découvrez dans cette BD l'histoire hors du commun durant laquelle le GIGN va démontrer son professionnalisme et appliquer les principes dictés par son fondateur dès la création du groupe en août 1973. Un travail de retranscription historique ultraréaliste et minutieux, validé et soutenu par Christian Prouteau lui-même, des anecdotes parfois inimaginables sur cette période charnière, très peu abordée.

Sanna Marin is a trailblazer in modern politics. When she became Prime Minister of Finland in 2019, she made history: at 34 she was the youngest ever leader of her country and the youngest leader in the world at the time. As Prime Minister she confronted significant challenges. She led Finland through the COVID-19 pandemic, helped the country navigate neighbouring Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and led Finland's rapid joining of NATO – the swiftest entry for any country in the alliance's history. In November 2025, she joined us live to discuss her new book, Hope in Action. She talked about the political challenges facing Europe and the world today, how she coped with her personal life becoming public, including the incident that sparked a media frenzy and prompted women, including Hillary Clinton and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, to express their support. And she explored how we can all develop the courage to lead and act for the change we want to see in the world. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

Send Bidemi a Text Message!In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde unpacks how AI chip diplomacy is reshaping global power, from the UAE's intelligence-tinted partnership with the U.S. to Silicon Valley's high-stakes entanglement with Gulf investors. He explores Saudi Arabia's record-breaking $55 billion leveraged buyout of Electronic Arts, the Kingdom's sweeping mutual defense pact with Pakistan, and its strategic oil lifeline to post-Assad Syria. Along the way, Bidemi connects the dots between technology, finance, and security to show how these moves are rewiring geopolitics across the Middle East, Europe, Asia, and Africa.Support the show

Only a few years ago, European elites were patting themselves on the back for fending off thetide of right-wing anti-system parties (often styled as populists). But recent polls in France,Germany and the United Kingdom show that that the far right is once again gaining traction,thanks in no small part centrist governments that have demoralized the population andlegitimized xenophobia. David Broder, author of Mussolini's Grandchildren and European editorof Jacobin, wrote a wide-ranging essay on this for The New York Times. I spoke to David aboutboth the dismal decisions of mainstream parties and also possible alternatives.Our Sponsors:* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

2025-12-07 | DAILY UPDATES #073 | Tonight, we're in Brussels, breaking down the comments of a pusillanimous and pathetic excuse for a leader, that's holding the financial keys to a war he claims can't be won. Yet he's not prepared to take a risk for the sake of Ukraine's or Europe's freedom. It's clowns like this that will destroy the European project and contribute to shattering of peace on the continent.Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever has just told the world that “Who seriously believes Russia is going to lose in Ukraine? It's a fable – a total illusion… not even desirable for Russia to lose.” (Kyiv Post) I wonder if he speaks Russian. If not, he better start learning it. ----------SOURCES: Kyiv Post – “‘Not Even Desirable for Russia to Lose': Belgian PM Opposes Asset Confiscation” (Dec. 4, 2025)Kyiv Independent – “The key to ending the war is in Brussels — Ukrainians react to Belgium's Russian asset loan opposition.” Kyiv Independent – “Belgian PM renews opposition to Russian frozen-assets reparations loan.” Kyiv Independent – “The EU's ambitious plan for frozen Russian assets, explained.” Le Monde – “Belgium resists unfreezing Russian assets held in Brussels.” Brussels Institute for Geopolitics – “The poisoned chalice of Russia's frozen assets” by Luuk van Middelaar. AP News – “The EU lays out a plan to fund Ukraine using frozen Russian assets but Belgium says it's too risky.” Financial Times – “ECB refuses to provide backstop for €140bn Ukraine loan.” Reuters – Coverage of De Wever–von der Leyen–Merz talks, and Russian Duma and Medvedev threats over asset seizure. The Guardian – “European Commission plans ‘reparations loan' to Ukraine using frozen Russian assets” and follow-up pieces on Ukraine funding negotiations. Washington Post – Opinion on “The European Union's hypocrisies on Ukraine.” ----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

This video is part of a Ukrainian Advert series, celebrating Ukrainian voices, culture and resilience, ahead of Christmas Day. The project is kindly supported by maker of the film: The Steel Porcupine.#ONE: Andrew Chakhoyan is a Ukrainian American based in the Netherlands and is a vocal and articulate champion of Ukraine and its cause. ----------The Steel Porcupine https://www.thesteelporcupine.com/I'm proud to say that this series of ‘Ukrainian advent' interviews is supported by The Steel Porcupine – a unique and powerful film about a country that refuses to lie down, a people who turned themselves into a fortress of needles when Russian tanks rolled in. The Steel Porcupine is an unforgettable cinematic experience that exposes Russia's campaign of extermination in Ukraine, and the Ukrainian people's spirit to resist and prevail. It follows soldiers, volunteers and people who decided that survival meant resistance, not submission.Created by the makers of the acclaimed To the Zero Line, this is another film about humanity, that clearly states there is no such thing as neutrality when war crimes are being committed systematically by Russia, and on a scale in Europe only comparable to World War Two. Set to a haunting soundtrack featuring music by Philip Glass, and blending rare archival footage with original material, it is an impactful work of art and storytelling, as well as being informative.----------LINKS:https://x.com/ChakhoyanAndrewhttps://www.weforum.org/agenda/authors/andrew-chakhoyan/https://www.politico.eu/article/ukraine-incrementalism-russia-war-president-volodymyr-zelenskyy-truth/ ----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN 12 Events in 12 months - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur first live events this year in Lviv and Kyiv were a huge success.

I feel pretty well versed when it comes to World War II. I understand fairly well what was happening in Europe at least with Germany and whatnot. I know that the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 (84 years ago today) was the event that drew the United States into the war. But Pearl Harbor wasn't bombed by Germany. It was bombed by Japan. Wait, what? Japan? What does Japan have to do with Nazi Germany and World War II? This week I sit down with Quin Cho, an expert on the Pacific Theater during World War II, to talk about what was happening in Asia leading up to that fateful attack on Pearl Harbor. He'll fill us in on the rising action, like the Mukden Incident and the Second Sino-Japanese War, that led to the collision of two different war theaters into one big, bad world war.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée en public à l'École alsacienne le 7 décembre 2025.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste, ancien président de la Commission des Affaires étrangères de l'Assemblée nationale.David Djaïz, entrepreneur et essayiste.Antoine Foucher, consultant, spécialiste des questions sociales, auteur de Sortir du travail qui ne paie plus.Nicole Gnesotto, vice-présidente de l'Institut Jacques Delors.LE NOUVEAU RAPPORT DE FORCE ENTRE LA CHINE ET L'EUROPEAu cours des douze derniers mois, l'Europe est devenue le premier excédent commercial de la Chine, devant les Etats-Unis. Il a atteint 310 milliards de dollars Depuis 2019, le surplus chinois vis-à-vis de l'Europe a presque doublé. Et tout porte à croire qu'avec les droits de douane de Trump, qui ferment en grande partie la porte du marché américain aux exportations de l'empire du Milieu, ce phénomène est appelé à s'amplifier et à durer. Cela traduit l'impressionnante montée en puissance de la Chine dans un grand nombre de technologies, notamment dans les industries vertes, sur lesquelles l'Europe se retrouve désormais, dans un renversement du rapport de force, en position de demandeur. Face à la Chine, sur le plan économique et commercial, l'Europe n'est plus naïve : elle filtre les investissements ; applique des droits de douane sur les biens bénéficiant de subventions à la production, comme les voitures électriques ; travaille à desserrer l'étau de sa dépendance en ressources de base, comme les terres rares et les aimants permanents ; elle prend des mesures commerciales fortes, comme les quotas qui s'appliqueront pour l'acier et l'inox au 1er janvier prochain. Elle se convertit à l'idée, très française, de préférence européenne notamment pour les achats publics. Début décembre, le commissaire Stéphane Séjourné a porté à Bruxelles un texte pour conditionner les investissements en Europe à des transferts de technologie. Ces mesures révèlent un changement de logiciel de la Commission européenne, dans un rapport de force de plus en plus tendu avec Pékin. La prise de conscience des vulnérabilités stratégiques européennes gagne des pays pour qui le libre-échange était auparavant l'alpha et l'oméga, comme l'Allemagne, les Pays-Bas ou les Scandinaves.Pour sa quatrième visite d'État en Chine depuis 2017, du 3 au 5 décembre, Emmanuel Macron, qui était accompagné en 2023 par la présidente de la Commission européenne Ursula von der Leyen, a été bien seul face à Xi Jinping. Les Chinois sont aujourd'hui en position de force dans presque tous les domaines. Les contentieux entre la France et la Chine s'accumulent. L'Ukraine en est l'exemple le plus patent, à l'heure où Donald Trump cherche à précipiter un accord de paix, au risque de s'aligner sur les positions de Vladimir Poutine : bientôt quatre ans après l'invasion russe, Pékin n'a jamais faibli dans son soutien diplomatique et industriel à l'effort de guerre russe. Le numéro un chinois a opposé une fin de non-recevoir à la demande du chef de l'État français de faire pression sur la Russie. Le président français a également pressé son hôte sur le front économique, en quête d'un grand « rééquilibrage » avec là aussi une réponse fuyante de l'« usine du monde », qui déverse ses surcapacités industrielles aux quatre coins de la planète.LE BLOC CENTRAL S'EFFONDRE-T-IL ?Le projet de loi de financement de la Sécurité sociale est revenu mardi en deuxième lecture à l'Assemblée nationale. Vendredi, les députés ont adopté son volet recettes pour 2026, par 166 voix pour et 140 contre. Paradoxalement, le gouvernement s'inquiète davantage des votes du bloc central (Renaissance, Modem, Horizons, et LR) que de ceux des oppositions. Or les députés du parti Horizons, présidé par Édouard Philippe, n'entendent pas voter pour ce texte qui « ne propose pas de réduction du déficit, repose sur de nouvelles mesures de fiscalité et ne propose pas de nouvelles mesures de réduction de dépenses », selon le patron du groupe à l'Assemblée Paul Christophe. Des gestes ont été faits, sur la Défense, ou le prix de l'électricité, mais ce coup de pression venant d'un parti qui compte trois ministres au sein du gouvernement Lecornu, est mal compris par ses partenaires. Une adoption du texte, le 9 décembre, serait un succès pour le Premier ministre, qui espère provoquer ensuite une dynamique favorable sur le projet de budget de l'État. Les incertitudes demeurent d'autant plus que l'amertume monte au sein du bloc central, après avoir dû concéder des mesures aux socialistes, dont la suspension de la réforme des retraites de 2023.À un an et demi du scrutin présidentiel, dans un bloc central affaibli par les divisions et avec l'impopularité du président sortant, aucun candidat « naturel » n'a pour l'heure émergé. Seul prétendant déclaré, l'ancien Premier ministre Edouard Philippe s'efforce de s'imposer comme le candidat de la droite et du centre et exclut de passer par une primaire. Après son appel à la démission du président de la République, un sondage est venu, depuis, ébranler son camp. Selon le dernier baromètre Odoxa publié le 25 novembre, pour la première fois au second tour, face à Édouard Philippe, Jordan Bardella recueillerait 53% des voix. Quoi qu'il en soit de la fiabilité d'un sondage de deuxième tour dont les sondeurs eux-mêmes soulignent la fragilité, en avril dernier, Édouard Philippe était donné vainqueur de Jordan Bardella au second tour, avec 54% contre 46%. Cette baisse dans les sondages affecte tout le bloc central, soulignent les philippistes, alors que les discussions budgétaires au Parlement s'enlisent. L'affaiblissement de l'ancienne majorité présidentielle dans les sondages serait selon eux le résultat d'une « succession de mauvais choix » d'Emmanuel Macron, lequel aurait « contaminé » les prétendants issus de son camp. « Ils ne mouraient pas tous, mais tous étaient frappés », résume l'eurodéputée Nathalie Loiseau, membre d'Horizons. Le patron du parti macroniste Gabriel Attal se réjouit en privé, de talonner le Havrais dans les sondages et croit de plus en plus pouvoir incarner l'espace central, dans l'esprit du « en même temps » de 2017, que réfute Édouard Philippe.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

On Friday, the European Commission fined Elon Musk's X €120 million for breaching the Digital Services Act, delivering the first-ever non-compliance decision under the European Union's flagship tech regulation. By Saturday, Elon Musk was calling for no less than the abolition of the EU. To discuss the enforcement action, the politics surrounding it, and a variety of other issues related to digital regulation in Europe, Justin Hendrix spoke to Joris van Hoboken, a professor at the Institute for Information Law (IViR) at the University of Amsterdam, and part of the core team of the Digital Services Act (DSA) Observatory.
