In Episode 94 of Breaking History, Matt Ehret and Ghost peel back the curtain on a sprawling geopolitical landscape shaped by finance, covert operations, and imperial legacy. Kicking off with a deep dive into the rise of Mark Carney as Canada's new globalist puppet, Matt exposes Carney's roots in Brookfield Asset Management, his ties to the World Economic Forum, BlackRock, the Bronfman crime dynasty, and even Ghislaine Maxwell. They explain how Canada's technocratic system is run through the British Crown's Privy Council and unpack why Trump's call to make Canada the 51st state may be a calculated narrative demonstration rather than a serious policy goal. The hosts then shift to the volatile India-Pakistan conflict, highlighting the role of British and U.S. intelligence in fostering jihadist networks and weaponizing historic grievances like Kashmir and Khalistan. From Pakistan's Defense Minister openly blaming the West for radicalization, to India's aggressive water shutoff, they warn of a potential flashpoint designed to fracture the BRICS alliance. Finally, they explore the strategic importance of Iran's Bandar Abbas port explosion along the International North-South Transport Corridor, a vital trade route linking Russia, Iran, and India. With energy, alliances, and multipolarity on the line, this episode is a masterclass in deciphering the engineered chaos of empire.

Every day, millions of posts are made online — tweets, videos, memes, reels. Some content is violent, misleading, or even dangerous.  This is where content moderation comes in. However, deciding what stays up and what comes down isn't as simple as it sounds.   In fact, X has sued the Union government in the Karnataka High Court for the SAHYOG portal, which it says is a “censorship portal” that allows local police and different parts of the government to demand takedowns. The Karnataka High Court did not grant interim relief to X after the Centre informed the court that there was no reason for the social media platform to be apprehensive of any coercive action against it. The matter will be taken up on April 24.  Taking down content is actually quite normal in India. In 2024, the govt blocked a 28,000 URLs across various social media platforms. These URLs had content linked to pro-Khalistan separatist movements, hate speech, and material that are considered to be la threat to national security and public order.  A recent report in The Hindu says that nearly a third of the 66 takedown notices sent to X by the Ministry of Home Affairs' Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) over the past year warn the platform to remove content about Union Ministers and Central government agencies.  This included content about PM Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and his son Jay Shah, and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.   Globally, too, platforms have come under criticism for content moderation, or the lack of it. Facebook's role in amplifying hate speech during the Rohingya crisis in Myanmar is one such example. In the U.S., Twitter's internal communications — revealed in the so-called “Twitter Files” — sparked a debate about political bias and backchannel moderation. Instagram users have repeatedly flagged the increase of graphic content.   Countries are responding to this challenge in very different ways. The European Union is pushing for algorithmic transparency and accountability with its Digital Services Act. The U.S. had taken a hands off approach despite several controversies. In India, the government and law enforcement agencies flag content to be taken down.  So, who gets to decide what free speech looks like in the digital age? Is it the government, the platform themselves, or the public? And how do we draw the line between harmful content and healthy debate?

In this English episode, we sit down with Pablo Singh of the USA and discuss the difference between the theocratic Khalsa Raaj envisioned by the Gurus and the modern nation-state model of Khalistan that seems to be nothing more than India 2.0 minus the Sikh genocide. Can Constitutions and democracy truly ensure the survival of the Sikhs? Listen to find out.

Recently, Prime Minister, Christopher Luxon, met with India's Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, in Delhi to discuss a variety of different topics. Notably, Modi alleged there has been ‘anti-India activities by some illegal elements' in Aotearoa. Many believe Modi's statements refer to the Khalistan movement in Aotearoa; a movement aiming to establish an independent homeland for Sikhs in India. More specifically, many believe Modi is referring to the Khalistan ‘referendum' in Auckland in November last year. News and Editorial Director, Joel, spoke to an activist with the Aotearoa Alliance of Progressive Indians, Sapna Samant, about these allegations by Modi and how she believes his criticisms are more to do with the anti-Hindutva, or anti-Hindu-nationalism, movement in Aotearoa. They started off by asking her about the Khalistan movement in New Zealand.

Kuljinder Dhillon is a common man from Majha region in Punjab. Like tens of thousands of youth, he also got swept away by the Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale-led Khalistan movement in late 1970s and early 1980s. He was inside the Golden Temple when the Indian Army launched a military operation codenamed 'Blue Star' to take control of the holy complex back from Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, who was using the Sikhism's holiest site as a launchpad for his terrorism and anti-India activities.Kuljinder Dhillon actively participated in the battle with Indian army on 4th & 5th June 1984. He was arrested later from the Golden Temple but managed to flee from a hospital where he was referred to for treating injuries inflicted by a grenade attack. He later fled to Pakistan in search of Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, believing like lakhs of other Sikhs that 'Sant' was hiding in Pakistan.Kuljinder Dhillon later got involved in smuggling activities across the border but was caught few years later. Ultimately, he got disillusioned with the Khalistan movement and is a strong opponent of the same now. His journey from extremism to mainstream is an important one that needed to be documented. Though, Kuljinder Dhillon lives like a family man in Punjab, he is constantly under the threat from Khalistanis who have made attempts on his life for speaking truth.

With Trump's ultimatum and increasing global crackdowns, is the Khalistan movement nearing its end? Aadi Achint, Ramnik Mann, and Vaibhav Singh analyze the impact of deportations and shifting geopolitical stances on the separatist agenda. As countries tighten their stance on extremism, what does this mean for the future of Khalistani elements abroad and their influence in India? Watch now for a deep dive into this critical development.

The Khalistan movement is a separatist organization seeking to create its own state out of part of India. This drive is spreading in Canada - and has been interfering in our government affairs. Recently, Patrick Brown, the mayor of a big city in Ontario, acknowledged that this political battle is being fought out here in Canada. Why do we allow foreigners to use Canada as a battlefield? What can we do to stop it? Joe Adam George is a Foreign Policy Analyst with the Macdonald Laurier Institute - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast.

This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.Today is the 15th of January and here are today's headlines.Rahul Gandhi's Remarks on RSS and BJPOn Wednesday, Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, accused the BJP and RSS of “capturing every single institution” in India. He criticized RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat for his controversial remarks on India's Independence and called them treasonous. Gandhi argued that India is witnessing a clash between the visions of the Congress and RSS. He stated that Congress is now fighting both the BJP, RSS, and the Indian state itself, drawing sharp criticism from the BJP.PM Modi Commissions New Naval CombatantsPrime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday commissioned three advanced Naval combatants—INS Surat, INS Nilgiri, and INS Vaghsheer—at the Naval Dockyard in Mumbai. Calling the occasion a “giant leap forward” for the Navy's empowerment, Modi celebrated India's growing defence self-reliance. Designed and built entirely in India, these combatants enhance India's naval capabilities. They have undergone rigorous trials and are now fully operational, marking a significant milestone in the country's indigenous shipbuilding and defence production.Meta Apologizes for Zuckerberg's Election RemarksMeta India apologized on Wednesday for CEO Mark Zuckerberg's claim about several governments, including India's, losing power in post-COVID elections. Meta clarified that the statement was an "inadvertent error." In a message to Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, Meta's Shivnath Thukral explained that while the remark applied to many countries, it was incorrect regarding India. The apology came after BJP MP Nishikant Dubey announced that a Parliamentary panel would summon Meta to seek an apology for the controversial comments.Committee Recommends Action in Khalistan Plot CaseA high-powered committee set up by the Union government has recommended legal action against an individual in connection with an alleged plot to kill Khalistan separatist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun.

The Ministry of External Affairs confirmed Yadav is no longer employed by the Indian government, and legal action is now being considered based on the findings.South Korean President Arrested Amid ImpeachmentOn Wednesday, South Korean authorities arrested impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol from his residence, following a weeks-long standoff with law enforcement. Yoon, who had previously declared martial law in December, was impeached by the parliament. In a pre-recorded message, Yoon claimed that his arrest was illegitimate and the investigation illegal. He explained that he stopped resisting to avoid a violent confrontation. Yoon's controversial actions and impeachment have sparked political turmoil in the country.This was the Catch Up on 3 Things by the Indian Express.

Severe cyclone 'Dana' begins landfall process on Odisha coast: IMD, Canada backstabbed India, its behaviour ‘the pits'; Khalistan a criminal enterprise, says Sanjay Verma, 2 Army porters killed, 3 soldiers among 4 injured in Gulmarg terror attack, India's Washington Sundar picks his favourite wicket from day 1 in 2nd Test against New Zealand, ‘Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' will continue to break its own record every year: Kajol

Here's an AI-generated podcast based on this essay (courtesy Google's NotebookLM): always entertaining and appealing. Full disclosure: Parts of this essay were also written by AI, and edited.The entire sorry spat with the Canadians, the tit-for-tat expulsions of diplomats and a virtual breakdown of ties leads to a good question. Are the Americans behind it (and if so why?), because for all practical purposes, Canada takes the lead from its Five Eyes friends and mentors? Several commentators have suggested that this is so. Trudeau is not a serious politician, as he demonstrated in this photograph in blackface acting allegedly as an “Indian potentate”.But the Deep State is deadly serious. They have meddled in country after country, leading to the utter misery of their populations. I can, off the top of my head, count several: Salvador Allende's Chile, Patrice Lumumba's Congo, Saddam Hussein's Iraq, Muammar Ghaddafi's Libya, Bashar Assad's Syria, not to mention Sihanouk's Cambodia. We have to make a distinction between the US public in general and the Deep State. The nation as a whole still believes in the noble ideals of the American Revolution, and American individuals are among the most engaging in the world; however, the Deep State is self-aggrandizing, and now poses a potent danger to the US itself as well as others. Alas, it is taking its eye off its real foe, China, with what probably will be disastrous consequences.  The Khalistani threat is a significant concern for India because it appears that the Deep State is applying pressure through proxies. Since it likes to stick to simple playbooks, we have some recent and nerve-racking precedents: Ukraine https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/trudeau-is-us-deep-states-zelensky-2-0-why-india-should-fight-canadas-diplomatic-war-with-all-its-might-13827294.html) and Bangladesh https://rajeevsrinivasan.substack.com/p/ep-134-the-geo-political-fallout.So what exactly is in store for India after the new POTUS is chosen, which is just two weeks away? US betting markets are suggesting that Donald Trump will win, but it's likely that Kamala Harris will emerge as POTUS. I was among the few in India who predicted a Trump win in 2016; admittedly I predicted a Trump win in 2020, and I do believe there were um… irregularities. I think in 2024 Trump would win if it were a fair fight, but it is not.But I fear the vote will be rigged and lopsided, partly because of the vast numbers of illegal aliens who will be, or already have been, allowed to vote (by mail). Every day, I hear of strange practices in swing states, as in this tweet. There is room for a lot of irregularities.On the other hand, the Indian-American voter (“desi”), apparently, will continue to vote for the Democratic Party, with some reason: there is racism in the Republican rank and file; but then let us remember that anti-black racism in the US South had Democratic roots: George Wallace and Bull Connor and “Jim Crow”. The Republicans had their “Southern Strategy” too, to inflame racial tensions. The racism Indian-Americans, particularly Hindus, face today is more subtle, but I doubt that the indentured labor and Green Card hell will get any better with Kamala Harris as President. I suspect 100+ year waits for a Green Card will continue. A Harris presidency could introduce several challenges for India across various domains, including economics, foreign policy, terrorism, and military affairs. It is appropriate to consider historical contexts, especially the stances of previous Democratic administrations and notable figures. In particular, Bill Clinton, Madeleine Albright and Robin Raphel come to mind: they were especially offensive to India and India's interests. The Biden Amendment, and Bill Clinton/Hillary Clinton's efforts delayed India's cryogenic rocket engine and thus its space program by 19 years. https://www.rediff.com/news/column/who-killed-the-isros-cryogenic-engine/20131118.htmOne of the most vivid historical examples is that of Japan's economy. After a dream run in the 1960s and 1970s, when they seriously threatened American supremacy in trade based on their high-quality and low-priced products, the Japanese were felled by the Plaza Accord of 1985, which forced the yen to appreciate significantly against the dollar.The net result was that Japanese products lost their competitive pricing edge. Furthermore, it led to an interest rate cut by the Japanese central bank, which created an enormous asset bubble. The bursting of that bubble led to a Lost Decade in the 1990s, and the nation has not yet recovered from that shock. One could say that the reserve currency status of the dollar was used to bludgeon the Japanese economy to death.Having observed this closely, China took special care to do two things: one, to infiltrate the US establishment, and two, to lull them into a false sense of security. Captains of industry were perfectly happy, with their short-term personal incentives, to move production to China for increased profits. Wall Street was quite willing to finance China, too. Politicians were willing to suspend disbelief, and to pursue the fantasy that a prosperous China would be somehow like America, only with East Asian features. Wrong. China is a threat now. But the Deep State learned from that mistake: they will not let another competitor thrive. The possible economic rise of India is something that will be opposed tooth and nail. In the background there is the possible collapse of the US dollar as the reserve currency (i.e. dedollarization), because of ballooning US debt and falling competitiveness, and the emergence of mechanisms other than Bretton Woods and the SWIFT network (e.g. the proposed blockchain-based, decentralized BRICS currency called UNIT).Besides, the Deep State has a clear goal for India: be a supine supplier of raw materials, including people; and a market for American goods, in particular weapons. Ideally India will be ruled by the Congress party, which, through incompetence or intent, steadily impoverished India: see how nominal per capita income collapsed under that regime until the reforms of 1991 (data from tradingeconomics and macrotrends). The massive devaluations along the way also hurt the GDP statistics, with only modest gains in trade. Another future that the Deep State has in mind for India could well be balkanization: just like the Soviet Union was unraveled, it may assiduously pursue the unwinding of the Indian State through secession, “sub-national diplomacy” and so forth. The value of India as a hedge against a rampaging China does not seem to occur to Democrats; in this context Trump in his presidency was much more positive towards India.Chances are that a Harris presidency will cost India dear,  in all sorts of ways:Foreign Policy Challenges1. Kashmir, Khalistan and Regional Dynamics: Harris has previously expressed support for Kashmiri separatism and criticized India's actions in the region. This stance could complicate U.S.-India relations, especially if she seeks to engage with groups advocating Kashmiri secession. The persistent support for Khalistan, including its poster boy Gurpatwant Singh Pannun who keeps warning of blowing up Indian planes, shows the Democrats have invested in this policy.2. Alignment with Anti-India Elements: Her connections with leftist factions within the Democratic Party, which have historically taken a hard stance against India, may result in policies that are less favorable to Indian interests. The influence of figures like Pramila Jayapal could further strain relations.3. Balancing Act with China: While the U.S. aims to counter Chinese influence in Asia, Harris's approach may involve a nuanced engagement with China that could leave India feeling sidelined in strategic discussions. Barack Obama, if you remember, unilaterally ceded to China the task of overseeing the so-called “South Asia”. Harris may well be content with a condominium arrangement with China: see https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/shadow-warrior-a-us-china-condominium-dividing-up-the-world-between-themselves-12464262.html 4. Foreign Policy Independence: An India that acts in its own national interests is anathema to many in the US establishment. The clear Indian message that the Ukraine war and perhaps even the Gaza war are unfortunate events, but that they are peripheral to Indian interests, did not sit well with the Biden administration. In a sense, just as Biden pushed Russia into China's arms, he may well be doing the same with India: the recently announced patrolling agreement between India and China may also be a signal to the Harris camp.Terrorism and Security Concerns1. Counterterrorism Cooperation: A shift towards prioritizing “human rights” may affect U.S.-India counterterrorism cooperation, as can already be seen in the case of Khalistanis. If Harris's administration emphasizes civil liberties over security measures, it could limit joint operations aimed at combating terrorism emanating especially from Pakistan..2. Support for Separatist Movements and Secession: Increased U.S. support for groups that advocate for self-determination in regions like Kashmir might embolden separatist movements within India (see Sonam Wangchuk in Ladakh, and the alleged Christian Zo nation that Sheikh Hasina said the US wanted to carve out of India, Bangladesh and Myanmar), posing a significant internal security challenge.Military Affairs1. Defense Collaborations: Although military ties have strengthened under previous administrations, a Harris presidency might introduce hesitancy in defense collaborations due to her potential focus on alleged human rights issues within India's military operations. This is a double-edged sword because it could also induce more self-reliance, as well as defense exports, by India. 2. Historical Precedents: The historical context of U.S. military interventions in South Asia, such as the deployment of the Seventh Fleet during the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971, raises concerns about how a Harris administration might respond to regional conflicts involving India. 3. Strategic Partnerships: Any perceived shift in U.S. commitment to India as a strategic partner could embolden adversarial nations like China and Pakistan, thereby destabilizing the region further. This, at a time when China is vastly outspending all its neighbors in Asia in its military budget (data from CSIS).Economic Implications1. Increased Scrutiny on “Human Rights”: Harris's administration may adopt a more critical stance towards India's human rights record, particularly concerning alleged violations of minority rights and alleged mistreatment of dissent, although there is reason to believe this is mostly a convenient stick to beat India with rather than a real concern: we see how the real human rights violations of Hindus in Bangladesh raise no alarms. This scrutiny could have economic repercussions, such as reduced foreign investment from companies concerned about reputational risks associated with human rights violations, and possible sanctions based on the likes of the USCIRF's (US Council on International Religious Freedom) report.2. Shift in Trade Policies: Historical Democratic administrations have often prioritized labor rights and environmental standards in trade agreements. If Harris follows this trend, India might face stricter trade conditions that could hinder its export-driven sectors.3. Focus on Domestic Issues: Harris's potential prioritization of domestic issues over international relations may lead to a diminished focus on strengthening economic ties with India, which could stall ongoing initiatives aimed at boosting bilateral trade and investment.Social Issues1.  Anti-Hindu feeling: There has been a demonstrable increase in antipathy shown towards Hindus in the US, with a number of incidents of desecration of Hindu temples, especially by Khalistanis, as well as economic crimes such as robberies of jewelry shops. The temperature online as well as in legacy media has also risen, with offensive memes being bandied about. A notable example was the New York Times' cartoon when India did its Mars landing. And you don't get more Democrat-leaning than the New York Times.In summary, while Kamala Harris's presidency may not drastically alter the trajectory of U.S.-India relations established under previous administrations, given a convergence of major geo-political interests, it could introduce significant challenges stemming from her focus on so-called “human rights” and alignment with anti-India factions within her party. These factors could negatively influence economic ties, foreign policy dynamics, counterterrorism efforts, and military collaborations between the two nations. Four more years of tension: revival of terrorist attacks in Kashmir, the chances of CAA-like riots regarding the Waqf issue, economic warfare, a slow genocide of Hindus in Bangladesh. It's enough to make one nostalgic for the Trump era: yes, he talked about tariffs and Harley-Davidson, but he didn't go to war, and he identified China as enemy number one. 2000 words, 23 October 2024 This is a public episode.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is rewriting the killing of pro-Khalistan preacher Hardeep Singh Nijjar as a morality play, where he defends high liberal principles against a barbarous tyranny.The real story, though, is more complex than either Canada of India admits, says Praveen Swami, Contributing Editor at ThePrint. 

La ministre haïtienne des Affaires étrangères, Dominique Dupuy, est à Paris. Lundi 14 octobre, elle a retrouvé ses anciens collègues de l'Unesco où elle dirigeait la délégation haïtienne avant d'être nommée au gouvernement de transition. Et a tenu un discours très fort. À l'occasion du Conseil exécutif de l'Unesco, Dominique Dupuy a lancé, lundi, un vibrant appel à l'aide face aux désastres que traverse Haïti : « Chez moi, chaque nuit est une loterie de carnage où la vie perd sans cesse », a insisté Dominique Dupuy : « Je vous implore de ne plus détourner le regard de mon pays. Ne rien faire ferait de vous comme de moi des complices de l'inacceptable, des co-auteurs d'un nouveau "jamais plus". »Combats et expulsionsToujours en Haïti, Gotson Pierre, le rédacteur en chef du site AlterPresse, revient sur les tirs nourris entendus, lundi, dans les quartiers dans la périphérie est de Port-au-Prince, des « opérations conjointes de la police et de la force multinationale, qui se seraient soldées par la mort de vingt bandits et plusieurs blessés, dont un chef de gangs », selon la police.Autre sujet, les expulsions massives d'Haïtiens par la République dominicaine depuis le début du mois. Des milliers de migrants arrivent à la frontière et « la prise en charge est toujours approximative », raconte Gotson Pierre. Dans un article publié il y a quelques jours, AlterPresse rapportait de sérieux « doutes sur l'efficacité de l'action diplomatique haïtienne face à ces rapatriements massifs » : les milieux diplomatiques craignent que s'adresser à l'Organisation des États américains, comme l'a fait Haïti, ne produisent pas de résultats probants. Selon ces diplomates, Port-au-Prince « pourrait approcher des pays amis proches de la République dominicaine et sensibles à la cause haïtienne, comme l'Espagne, le Brésil et le Mexique, pour rechercher un arbitrage et faire cesser ces déportations ».Aux États-Unis, des États-clé toujours très disputésLe correspondant de RFI à Washington Guillaume Naudin revient comme tous les mardis sur les évènements qui ont marqué la campagne américaine depuis une semaine. Avec la nécessité de convaincre les électeurs des États-clé, alors que les scores seraient, selon les sondages, de plus en plus serrés.Guillaume Naudin se penche sur le cas de la Pennsylvanie, le plus important de tous les États qui peuvent faire basculer l'élection, avec ses 19 grands électeurs. Donald Trump est allé à Oaks, près de Philadelphie, pour une réunion publique où il a pris des questions du public. Mais après quelques questions et des malaises dans la salle, il a arrêté l'exercice, restant quand même sur le podium pour écouter la bande musicale proposée par son équipe de campagne, avant de partir au bout de vingt minutes. La campagne Harris n'a pas manqué de souligner l'aspect « étrange » de la séquence.Kamala Harris s'est, de son côté, rendue à l'autre bout de la Pennsylvanie, dans la ville d'Érié. Lors des quatre dernières élections, le comté d'Érié a voté pour le vainqueur. Autant par nécessité que par superstition, les deux candidats s'y sont donc rendus – Donald Trump y était la semaine dernière.Enfin, Guillaume Naudin a rappelé que les hommes noirs, qui votent habituellement tous démocrates, ne voteraient cette fois qu'à 75% pour Kamala Harris, selon les études d'opinion. Barack Obama en a parlé il y a peu à Pittsburgh, toujours en Pennsylvanie, s'adressant aux hommes afro-américains : « Cela me fait penser que vous n'aimez pas l'idée d'avoir une femme comme présidente. »Crise diplomatique entre l'Inde et le CanadaL'Inde a fait « une erreur monumentale » en décidant d'« attaquer les Canadiens », a martelé lundi le Premier ministre Justin Trudeau. Une déclaration faite après l'annonce, par la police fédérale, de « l'implication d'agents du gouvernement de l'Inde dans des activités criminelles graves au Canada », notamment l'assassinat d'un dirigeant séparatiste sikh. « Le stratagème implique le gang criminalisé Bishnoi », précise La Presse, qui cite des sources gouvernementales canadiennes : « À l'instruction du gouvernement de Narendra Modi, l'organisation recruterait des membres du crime organisé en sol canadien pour terroriser des membres de la communauté sikhe qui militent en faveur de la création en Inde d'un État indépendant appelé le Khalistan ». « Normalement, nous ne rendons pas publiques des informations sur des enquêtes en cours », explique le chef de la police, cité par le Toronto Star, « mais nous avons jugé nécessaire de la faire au vu de la menace significative qui pèse sur la population dans notre pays ». 770 000 Sikhs vivent au Canada, soit 2% de la population, rappelle Le Devoir.Selon Vina Nadjibulla, la vice-présidente de la recherche à la Fondation Asie-Pacifique du Canada, interrogée par La Presse, « le gouvernement canadien, qui ne peut se mesurer au géant indien, aura besoin de ses alliés du G7, et en particulier des États-Unis : «ce sera un exercice d'équilibre très difficile». »Blocages en BolivieEn Bolivie, des partisans d'Evo Morales bloquent plusieurs axes routiers du pays. Ils craignent que l'ancien président ne soit arrêté dans une affaire de viol. « S'ils veulent le dialogue, qu'ils lèvent les huit procédures contre Evo », a déclaré lundi Ponciano Santos, secrétaire de la Confédération syndicale unitaire des travailleurs paysans de Bolivie – repris par Correo del Sur. « Les blocages persistent en deux points, et 12 personnes ont été arrêtées », écrit La Razon, après des affrontements avec la police. Selon le gouvernement, l'objectif de ces blocages serait en fait le retour d'Evo Morales au pouvoir. Mais l'analyste Luis Alberto Ruiz, interrogé par El Diario, estime qu'au contraire, tout cela pourrait accélérer l'arrestation de l'ex-président qui pourrait donc, selon cet analyste, être arrêté ou s'exiler au Mexique (ou au Venezuela).La COP16 menacée en ColombieEn Colombie, les autorités assurent qu'elles seront en mesure d'assurer la sécurité de la COP16 de Cali, COP de la biodiversité qui débute lundi prochain sous la menace d'une dissidence de l'ex-guérilla des FARC. 196 pays seront représentés, rappelle El Espectador, pour « élaborer une feuille de route pour la protection de la biodiversité mondiale jusqu'en 2030. » Or, écrit El Universal, « le département de Cauca a été le théâtre d'une vague de violence pendant les vacances d'octobre, déclenchée par les dissidents des FARC sous le commandement d'Iván Mordisco. » Et en plus des attaques dans le Cauca, le groupe a menacé nommément la COP16, « invitant les délégués nationaux et internationaux à ne pas y participer ». Le président Petro, rapporte le quotidien, « a garanti la sécurité de la conférence et minimisé les menaces de Mordisco, le décrivant comme un acteur intéressé uniquement par les affaires illicites et la destruction de la forêt tropicale au profit des narcoterroristes ».Le journal de la PremièreEn Martinique, une nouvelle table ronde prévue ce mardi 15 octobre n'aura pas lieu.

Sikhs and the 1947 Partition: A Historical Reflection A look back at the role of Sikhs during the 1947 Partition of India, examining why the country was divided into two and the lasting impact on the Sikh community. Narrative Control: Why Are Geniuses Often Miserable? We question why society often crafts certain narratives, and why those who think outside the box or challenge the status quo often find themselves isolated and misunderstood. Freedom of Speech in India: Are Punjabis Being Silenced? Are Punjabis truly being denied freedom of speech in India? We explore the current political climate, media control, and public dissent. The Arrest of Amritpal Singh: Justified or Suppression? An analysis of the arrest of Amritpal Singh, weighing whether it was a justified act or a step toward silencing critical voices in Punjab. The Situation of Bandi Singhs: Unjust Detention? We discuss the plight of Bandi Singhs, who remain behind bars even after serving their sentences, and compare it to how political prisoners are treated in other countries. Political Prisoners Around the World: A Comparative View Highlighting the practice of keeping political prisoners and how it is not just limited to India but also seen globally, revealing a pattern of suppression. Punjab's Migration Rate: An Alarming Trend? Finally, we examine Punjab's high migration rate and compare it to other states in India. What are the underlying reasons for this exodus, and what does it mean for the future of Punjab?
